RICHMOND — The Redskins are starting to work at their brand new training facility in Virginia's capital. All eyes, as perhaps they should be, are on quarterback Robert Griffin III. RG3, you may have heard, is coming back from major knee surgery. The fortunes of the Redskins in 2013 rest heavily on his ability to recapture the form that made him last season's Offensive Rookie of the Year.
Following RG3 in Wednesday's news conference rotation was a man whose story may be just as good.
SEE ALSO: 2013 Washington Redskins training camp position previews
RG3 was 8 years old when London Fletcher played his first NFL game in 1998.
Fletcher is preparing for his 16th season. The next game he misses will be the first. Think about that — 240 games, at linebacker, where there is contact almost every play. And he's never missed a game. He hasn't missed a start from his second season forward.
"London's been amazing, just his whole career," RG3 said. "It's good to see a guy like that come out here time in, time out. I know I've [only] been here for a year, but guys that have been here for multiple years have seen him do it and it's truly amazing."
SEE ALSO: CAMPBELL: RG3 gets Redskins camp off to harmonious start by buying into Mike Shanahan's plan
Dare we say it, it is almost Ripken-like. Sure, Cal Ripken Jr.'s record streak of 2,632 games is more than 10 times Fletcher's — but a shortstop doesn't have big, strong, fast men plowing into him on almost every snap.
To last that long in the NFL is amazing. To last that long in the NFL without missing a game is amazing to the 100th power.
"It's just something where you get up every day and go to work and don't think about it," Fletcher said. "That's pretty much how I go about my business. I don't think about the durability part until somebody brings it up. I do a lot of different things to keep myself feeling good."
There's luck involved, no question. One misstep can blow out a knee and put you out for the season. There are so many fluky ways to get injured. But a 15-year-record of durability isn't built on luck alone. The streak looked to be in real jeopardy last year because of a bum ankle (Fletcher had offseason surgery). Somehow, it didn't end.
"Genetics. God blessed me with some good genes," Fletcher said. "A little bit of dumb toughness, too, probably. It's a lot of different things. The main thing I look at is not wanting to let my teammates down. Being honest with myself and wanting to be out there on the football field with them. If I feel good enough to play, I play."
Fletcher isn't just taking up space, playing to keep a streak alive. He's never been considered a world-class linebacker along the lines of a Ray Lewis or a Brian Urlacher but he's also probably never been credited for being as good as he has been for so long. He turned 38 in May, but he's not slowing down. He was named second-team all-NFL by The Associated Press the past two seasons. Fletcher intercepted five passes last season, a career high.
"From a physical standpoint, obviously with 15 years of wear and tear there's a decline that goes with that," Fletcher said. "Mentally I think I'm as sharp and in tune with my game as I've ever been. Where the physical part has gone down, I've gained from a mental standpoint an understanding whether it is a line and a step here to the right or to the left or just different things that help me still continue to play at a high level."
It has to end sometime. Ripken eventually missed a game. Ronde Barber, who came in the same year as Fletcher and had the same 240-game streak, has retired. The NFL record of 352 by Jeff Feagles (a punter — should that even count?) is out of reach. Is 300, which would mean another four seasons and playing until he's 42?
Probably not going to happen. But let's not worry about the end. Let's enjoy Fletcher and his streak while he's still playing. He's in the last year of his contract, but that means nothing in terms of how long he'll continue to play. As he noted, coming into the league as an undrafted free agent he's always figured he's playing his last year.
He's just managed to repeat that final year 15 times and counting.
"Really, in the National Football League you're always on the last year of your contract for the most part," Fletcher said. "It's just the nature of the business. I've scratched and clawed my whole career.
"I'm focused on this season. That's pretty much it. The rest will take care of itself."

This morning we had our complimentary breakfast at the Holiday Inn express... It wasn't the experience I was hoping for, their eggs were premade omelet with a disgusting cheese inside. I find American cheese over processed. Their sausage patty was also processed, they do however have fresh fruit, and I did indulge in a cinnamon bun. Last night I downloaded the über app, and looked at where I wanted to go... First stop this morning was ...

We went to the Panavision building and into a room of 20 or so other people all here to either listen or read from the script. The script was very good and it was really cool to see how an actual table read went down. This is how all big movies start out, as table reads. The story was right up my alley for a fun low budget ...

... Max, Jordan, and I set off to do something only 5 film nerds would do...visit filming locations for the movie Back to the Future and the TV show the Office. We first drove to the building where the outside scenes from The Office were filmed (SIDE NOTE: Even though Dunder Mifflin is set in Scranton PA, it was filmed in LA). Then we set off to see the neighborhood that housed Marty McFly in 1985, the Burger King that Marty hitches a ride on the back ...

Last night I took a long after-dinner walk with a friend whose home is nestled deeper in the country than mine. Just before twilight, with her Lab and Pit Bull (Bramble and Rosebud) in tow, we headed up a dirt path to go walking where the cornfields begin to blanket the rolling hills all the way to the horizon.
[sidebar]The just-before-night sky stretched to the cliffs bordering the Delaware River. A seldom-traveled road cut a clean, flat path through the farmland. The fireflies glittered in and out of the corn stalks and, as the crescent moon began to glow in the dark, lights blinked on in distant farmhouses. A gentle breeze rustled the stalks and swept away the mosquitoes. We walked to a cluster of barns and silos, about a mile away before turning back in the darkness.

Communication and Diversity in the Contemporary FamilyAuthor:
Turner, Lynn H., West, Richard
Publisher: Erlbaum Associates, Incorporated, Lawrence
Summary: This special issue examines family communication using a slightly different definition of the family, forming the beginning of a more expansive ideology of family life. Each paper examines family life via a cultural lens beyond white, middle-class nuclear families and represents a mosaic of unique, insightful, and provocative thoughts on families. The first article seeks to understand an overlooked family relationshi...p: the post-marital relationship following divorce. The next paper focuses on an engrossing area of family discourse: family stories. The final article sets an agenda for communication researchers focused on families through interactional/transracial adoption. As such, this issue signifies a leading edge in scholarship on family communication in diverse contexts. [read more]

GPS widget not working i pay for the widget pack since the GPS widget is not available by itself - and then the gps widget doesn;t work right. it only opens up the gps setting window on my droid 3 - will not actuallut turn on/off the gps like it is supposed to. should get a refund for this problem. by the way why can we get the blue tooth and wifi widgets for free by them selves but not offering the gps widget free - anyway I pay the money for the pack to get gps widget to have the set and the one widget i needed doesn;t work right. REFUND DUE TO ME
Better than the free ones I used the free 'one click ' widgets previously, but found them to be slow to respond. These ones look nicer and are quicker for some reason.
Does what it says However dissapointed I am in how the GPS widget only brings up the location settings, that is how it is described in the app's description. Hopefully they will soon create a true standalone GPS toggle update, or I may just find a way to make one because the stock toggle looks like garbage next to these awesome widgets.
Desperately Needs Update I've been using these Widgets for a LONG time, but continued Android OS updates are severely hampering these widgets. The data toggle widget doesn't even work. An app of this nature cannot be left dev unattended .

Slideshow: Snapshots from Portland Cocktail Week 2011
Straight from a Robot
Saturday night, bartenders faced off against cocktail-making robots. I must admit, as cool as it was to see robots making drinks, the only decent cocktail I got from a robot was an Aviation from a rocket ship shaped robot named Cosmos.
The Statesman
At the Welcome to Cocktail Week party, Erick Castro of Pernod Ricard was mixing up Beefeater 24 with Rothman and Winter Pear, Green Chartreuse, and Regan's Orange Bitters. This cocktail was the perfect thing to start the week.
Bucks at the Triple Buck
On Saturday at Triple Buck there was a very simple menu: eight different whiskies served neat, on the rocks, or in a Buck made with lime juice, smoked fig marmalade, and ginger beer. It was a great event put on by San Francisco's Bon Vivants, Cocktail Go Go, and the Bar Lab.
Bring It Home, Portland
This was the aptly-named winning cocktail the Great American Distiller Fest cocktail competition. Portland's Art Tierce from Teardrop Cocktail Lounge won the $1000 grand prize with his cocoction made with Hudson Manhattan Rye, fresh lemon juice, Sea & Salt Farms Cherry Shrub, B.G Reynold's Vanilla Syrup, and sparkling wine.
Jeffrey Morgenthaler at Gil's Speakeasy
Mogenthaler got into the dive bar spirit, serving frozen Jägeritas on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. The Jägerita. is a surprisingly delicious frozen drink made up of Jägermeister, lime juice, Cointreau, and simple syrup. They were so tasty that a huge crowd stuck around in the basement bar instead of enjoying one of Portland's last sunny days of the year.
Evan Zimmerman Makes The Setter
At Imbibe Magazine's 5th year Anniversary Party, Portland bartender Evan Zimmerman made this complex and delicious cocktail with Michael Collins Blended Whiskey, Luxardo Amaretto, fresh grapefruit, and lime juices and lavender flowers.

Game of Thrones
TV Series Review
It's good to be the king.
With Westeros' old king now dead and the Iron Throne up for grabs, it's pretty obvious lots of folks want to sit on it. How many, exactly? As Queen Regent Cersei Lannister says, "I've lost count." Battles and wars and occasional spats of peace have been followed by more wars. And it seems as though everyone with a castle wants in on the action.
Truly the game in Game of Thrones is as brutal a contest as you can imagine.
It would seem the Lannister family has the upper hand. They're rich, powerful and ruthless, and besides, Cersei was married to the old king, Robert Baratheon. As such, her progeny would seem to be next in line—except that, technically, they're not Robert's kids. Rather, they're the flowers of Cersei's incestuous relationship with her brother, Jaime, a secret that all of Westeros has heard whisperings of.
There are those who support Stannis, Robert's brother, who's hoping the god of his newfangled monotheistic religion will help him go the distance. And then there's Daenerys Targaryen, the beautiful heir to Westeros' last usurped dynasty, who just happens to have a few dragons (this fantasy world's version of nuclear missiles) at her command.
If that wasn't enough turmoil and trouble for one kingdom, you have a fearsome force lurking behind a gigantic northern wall, an impending winter that could last several years, landholders who'd like nothing more than to rebel against whatever king eventually grabs the throne, and—
Well, maybe it's not so good to be the king after all.
HBO's Game of Thrones is being called a prestige drama—the most ballyhooed show from the premium cable channel since The Sopranos and perhaps the most widely acclaimed treatment of a fantasy epic since Peter Jackson's Academy Award-winning Lord of the Rings saga.
But Thrones, despite its liberal use of crowns and swordplay and gruff characters with beards, is far from a Tolkienesque fantasy, boasting noble characters fighting for higher purposes. HBO's show is a gritty, dirty, cynical study of sex, politics and familial intrigue—where all truly is fair in love and war, and where the most honorable character (Ned Stark) was beheaded in the very first season.
Perhaps there are those who would take up Ned's mantle of noble-mindedness, but they'll have a tough row to hoe in Westeros. Around the Iron Throne, honor is relative. In a land in which a nobleman marries his own daughters and leaves his newborn sons as a sort of sacrifice in the woods … a land in which kings demand deadly gladiator bouts to celebrate their "naming day" … a land in which brothel owners "gently" threaten to sell prostitutes to sadistic customers if they don't behave, folks who merely cheat, scheme and sleep around seem pretty decent by comparison.
Game of Thrones gives viewers the occasional honorable gesture or innocent action or even theological rumination. But for all its laurels, this series has its eyes firmly focused on the bestial in us, not the angelic. Politics are brutish, men are savage and women are, very often, treated as naked, sexually subservient chattel. Critics sometimes chide the show for its "sexposition"—that is, its habit of having characters recite loads of important-but-otherwise-boring dialogue in the beds of a brothel. And, frankly, most hard-R movies don't get as close to flat-out pornography as this series routinely does.
So in the end, we already know who rules this land: Violence and sex reign as king and queen, while graphic language and a hyper-cynical worldview squabble for scraps around the table.
Is it good to be the king? I don't even want to be in this kingdom.

Managing Director Rafael Guedes gives a brief overview of Fitch Ratings' presence and operations in Brazil. CC Subtitled: English & Portuguese.
Fitch's inclusion in J.P. Morgan's EMBIG and CEMBI indices, alongside competitors Moody's & S&P, enhances credit sub-sector classification of individual bonds, and provides more comprehensive distribution of credit quality.
Capital requirements for global systemically important insurers (G-SIIs) from 2019 may deter them from becoming larger and more complex.
Funds face growing capacity issues due to reduced market liquidity, growth of a fund's assets relative to supply, fund flow concentration and search for return reaching into less liquid asset classes.
Latest: Despite the cost increase, the new Brazilian CVM regulation (effective Oct. 1) also brings positive aspects regarding transparency and new possibilities to the fund distribution segment.
EU countries are adopting diverging paths to establish workable foundations for bank resolution, but coordination is important.
Factors include rate of iron ore mine closures, Chinese stainless steel production and nickel demand, aluminium smelter shutdowns, whether India can compensate for slowing Chinese demand, and changes in mining company credit profiles.
Following its large regional bank peer review, Fitch Ratings has upgraded the ratings for M&T Bancorporation, SunTrust Banks, Inc. and U.S. Bancorp.
In its latest Global Economic Outlook Fitch Ratings forecasts the global economy will grow by just 2.3% in 2015, the weakest since the global financial crisis in 2009.
Latest: China Hard Landing Would Hit HK, Korea, Japan Hardest
Latest commentary from James McCormack, Global Head of Sovereigns: The dramatic increase in advanced economies' government debt due to the financial crisis was quick, but its reduction in most countries will be very slow.
Build your knowledge & skills with courses from Fitch Learning, used by 9 of the top 10 investment banks and asset managers.
Latest: Now that the Fed has maintained its near-zero target rate, most U.S. banks will remain very attentive to their cost structures given the expectation of flat to lower asset yields going forward.
Webcast Replay: Jessalynn Moro, Amy Laskey, and Laura Porter discussed proposed revisions to the criteria and provided an overview of new analytical tools and models.

Item of the Day: GG en Rose
Summertime and the living is easy…despite the onslaught of humidity, the bane of many a hairdo. But GG en Rose has come to the rescue with its Easy Updo: a synthetic strand of hair (two twists and one braid) that wraps around a ponytail or wraps around your ponytail bun. Or creates a top knot, chignon or long braid.
The Easy Updo comes in four salon tested color combinations that suit most hair colors. Besides, say the gals at GG en Rose, "it's not supposed to be a perfect match. Perfect is matronly. It's supposed to blend so it's easy and fun!"
Similarly, a few stay hairs here and there or some natural wisps only add to the Easy Updo allure.

Saturday night.
The Tigers led 31-28 at halftime and 48-47 with 6:21 left but

1:37 left.
Norman Plummer had eight points and 11 rebounds and Chris
Alvarez had 13 boards for the Flyers (5-2), who outrebounded the

victory over Cincinnati on Jan. 29, 1989.

DEFINITION of 'Sunrise Industry'
A colloquial term for a sector or business that is in its infancy, but is growing at a rapid pace. A sunrise industry is typically characterized by high growth rates, numerous start-ups and an abundance of venture capital funding. Sunrise industries generally have plenty of "buzz" surrounding them as public awareness about the sector increases and investors get attracted to its long-term growth prospects.
BREAKING DOWN 'Sunrise Industry'
Examples of sunrise industries include alternative energy in the period from 2003 to 2007, and social media and cloud computing in 2011 and 2012.
A sunrise industry is often characterized by a high degree of innovation, and its rapid emergence may threaten to push into obsolescence a competing industry sector that is already in decline. Because of its dim long-term prospects, such an industry is referred to as a sunset industry.
Over a period of years or decades, as an industry grows and matures, it may pass from the sunrise phase to maturity and, finally, the sunset stage. The compact-disc industry is a typical example of such a transition. It was a sunrise industry in the 1990s as compact discs replaced vinyl records and cassette tapes, but the rapid adoption of digital media in the 21st century could mean that the compact-disc industry's days are numbered.
The transition from the sunrise to sunset stages is likely to be more rapid in dynamic sectors, such as technology.

A new book, Ansel Adams in Color, revised and expanded from the 1993 edition, [has] laser scans that might have met even his finicky standards. ―Richard B. Woodward
In a career that spanned six decades, Ansel Adams was at once America's foremost landscape photographer and one of its most ardent environmentalists. His work has been published in a multitude of books, posters, and calendars.
Andrea G. Stillman, who worked with Adams in the 1970s, has edited several books of his photographs and writings, including Letters and Images: 1916-1984, Our National Parks, and Ansel Adams: 400 Photographs. She lives in New York City.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KTHV) - UALR presented its tenth year of race research data Thursday. UALR Chancellor Joel Anderson said data shows there is a wide-spread perception between African-Americans and Caucasians.
Anderson said African-Americans felt discrimination when asked about education, employment, and housing.
"I went ahead and got scholarships. I was able to come to college. I'm able to get internships now. I feel like have the upper hand over a lot of other people," said Taylor Sills, a UALR Student.
Sill's parents made the decision to send their daughter to a majority white school in Jonesboro years ago.
"I had certain teachers that I know would look at me different because I was African-American," said Sills.
Despite what she calls discrimination, her schooling paid off and put her on a path for a bright future at UALR. The university released findings of a 2012 racial attitudes survey on Wednesday and found that blacks are the group least likely to believe that people generally act unselfishly.
"Experiences in education and housing and employment...there's quite a difference in perceptions. Significant numbers of African-Americans having experienced discrimination in those areas," said UALR Chancellor, Dr. Joel Anderson.
Anderson explained while some areas in the study appear discouraging overall race perception is improving in Pulaski County.
"There is a widespread perception among African-Americans and whites that race relations are good in our county," said Anderson.
Hispanics, according to the report, have a hard time trusting law enforcement and the justice system. UALR student Ricardo Alvarez sees the issue, but believes trust will build over time.
"I know a lot of people get scared of being deported, such things like that, which right now I see that changing with the government. Their trying to some sort of amnesty for Hispanics to get papers," said Alvarez.
Sills hopes starting an open conversation will cause positive change, especially in public education.
"Make sure everyone gets it. A black student doesn't have something, don't let them move on," said Sills.

Booting from Linux Live CD.
Hi - Can anyone help me with booting from a CD.
PC: Compaq CQ2960EA
Bios: AMI v22.214.171.1246
OS: Windows 8 64 bit
I need to boot a linux live cd. Cannot find an option to set CD as first boot device in the BIOS. Have tried turning secure boot off and selecting legacy device as a boot option but it gives the message cannot select without turning secure boot off. I thought I had done it. checked and I had. I think it is a UEFI problem either that or HP have buggerd the BIOS so you cant do it.
Thanks for any help.
Re: Booting from Linux Live CD.
I found this for an HP laptop: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docnam
Something similar maybe for a desktop.

A Franklin man is dead after an accident near that city.
According to DPS, Harvey Villarreal was headed east just after midnight on F-M 2446. For an unknown reason, his car veered off the road and into a ditch about two miles east of Franklin.
The 33-year-old's car hit a drainage culvert, and Villarreal was ejected.
Authorities say Villarreal was dead when they arrived. He was not believed to be wearing a seat belt.

I'm thinking about building a drivetrain around the xg-999 cassette which is 11-32 and super light. But I want to keep my low gear ratio that I have with the 22 tooth granny and 11-34 cassette.
My cranks are XTR 970 - I'll run it 2x with a bash for the big ring.
The plan is to get an actiontec 21 tooth granny and blackspire 970x 34 tooth middle ring. That's under the 14 tooth capacity of the front derailleur I'm looking at, and keeps about the same gear ratio for the lowest gear.
I know the blackspire ring will fit since its designed for 970 cranks, but I'm not so sure about the actiontec. Maybe I'll need spacers?
Does this seem like it'll work ok?

Did our review for this title help you decide to do any of the following?
Submitted by johnwilliams on

Parents need to know that How to Train Your Dragon is the video game tie-in for the Hollywood film of the same name, and that kids who see the movie or play the game will likely be drawn to the other as well. The game's primary action is similar to that of a typical fighting game, with two characters (in this case dragons) fighting to reduce each other's health bars by using complicated combination attacks involving slashes and flaming breath. It's not nearly as graphic as most fighters -- there is no blood or gore, and the combatants don't die at the end of a match -- but the dragons do make contact and recoil from hits. Note, too, that here is a conflicted message in that our heroes are supposed to care about the animals they keep but have no qualms pitting them in vicious battles against one another. The game supports dragon fighting tournaments against a friend sharing the same screen.
HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON, based on the movie of the same name, puts players in the shoes of a young Viking (the player's choice of either a boy named Hiccup or girl called Astrid) who trains dragons and then enters them in fighting tournaments against other trainers. About half of the game is spent on quests that have players searching for items for villagers and looking after and customizing dragons. Players feed them, let them sleep, and apply special herbs and materials to earn their trust and improve their mood. When the dragons' are in good health, players can take them out for training exercises, where new moves and attacks are learned, or to a challenge area where they can guide them in various tests -- such as flying through a series of rings -- to earn experience points. Properly trained and cared for, they can then be placed in tournaments which, if won, will unlock new quests, challenges, and training exercises. A secondary mode dubbed Arcade lets players take on groups of computer-controlled dragons or go up against a friend on the same screen.
As a fighting game, How to Train Your Dragon is decidedly average. There is little that feels original about the battles or the stages on which they are set. However, by the time the third tournament is reached it can become quite challenging. Button mashing won't work; you'll need to actually learn the combinations if you want to win. Assuming this is the first fighting game your children have played, they may experience frustration. It's a good thing the training exercises are thorough, if rather repetitive.
In fact, everything in the game is repetitive. Whether it's performing the same moves over and over again in training or bagging scores of chickens or dozens of pieces of ore, much of the experience feels like grinding for no other reason than to make the game last a little longer. What we've been given is okay, but it's a shame that players are tasked to repeat most activities until they're blue in the face.
Families can talk about whether the game successfully reconciles the notion of caring for creatures with the act of placing them in battle against one another. Is it okay simply because no animals are ever seriously harmed, or is their something here that might be akin to, say, a dog fight? Why do you think most players won't see it as the latter?
Families can also discuss how closely the game's characters and story resemble the film. If you've already seen the film, was the game what you expected? Do you think the game makers remained faithful to the film's narrative and messages?

Jay Besch is fairly new to telework, but his employer, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, has been at it for a quite a while.
The new faces of teleworkPracticing what she preachesPioneering a home-based command Casting a wide telework net
The agency launched its telework effort 10 years ago, beginning with trademark examining attorneys. Besch joined their ranks 15 months ago. Besch said working at home four days a week reduces his commuting time, either a 45- to 90-minute drive or a 75-minute Metrorail journey from Bethesda,Md.
AGENCY: U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, trademark line of business.
TELEWORKER POPULATION: 83 percent of employees eligible to telework.
TYPES OF JOBS: Trademark examining attorneys, supervisors and managers.
TELEWORK GEAR: Laptops, voice-over-IP phone, virtual private network connection to office-based applications; Nortel's MCS collaboration software.
"I've got that time back in my life," he said.
Telework also cuts down on office interruptions and lets him take calls from the West Coast that he would otherwise miss, Besch said. Working from home also means his environmentally conscious family can make do without a second car.
A total of 394 trademark business line employees are teleworking — about 83 percent of the trademark population eligible to do so. A USPTO spokeswoman said telework programs exist for most trademark services work units — in addition to those for examining attorneys. She said many supervisors and managers also participate.
Trademark examining lends itself to telework, given the level of autonomy involved, Besch said. Trademark examining attorneys analyze trademark applications, considering applicable rules and statutes to determine whether a trademark will be registered.
Besch said he can handle all aspects of the trademark examining job at home with a couple of exceptions. Law Office meetings, for instance, usually take place at USPTO's facility in Alexandria, Va.
In addition, USPTO teleworkers must report to the Alexandria office weekly to maintain their official duty station. That visit is required under Office of Personnel Management regulations.
When working at home, examining attorneys are equipped with a laptop and voice-over-IP phones. The laptops have software for connecting to a virtual private network and Nortel's Multimedia Communications Server conferencing software. Besch and his colleagues also remotely access a database search program that was developed for trademark examining.
Although telework is hardly new for the trademark line of business, the practice continues to evolve.
"We are constantly looking to expand the program," said Besch, who is a union representative for the Trademark Work At Home initiative.
He pointed to the Trademark Geographic Expansion pilot. That pilot, begun last year, lets examining attorneys move far afield of the Washington, D.C., area.
Besch said attorneys now work in California, Illinois and North Carolina, among other distant locations.
Besch said the participants are happy with the program — apart from the weekly reporting requirement.
