(AP) Shanahan says RG3 will start Redskins opener
By JOSEPH WHITE
AP Sports Writer
ASHBURN, Va.
So much for those last-minute "concerns." RG3 is starting Week 1.
Washington Redskins coach Mike Shanahan finally confirmed Monday what has appeared inevitable since the start of training camp: Robert Griffin III will be under center for the season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles.
As is fitting with all things Griffin these days, Shanahan couldn't make the proclamation without leaving a few loose ends of intrigue. The coach refused to disclose the "concerns" that caused him to delay the announcement for several days after the quarterback was medically cleared by Dr. James Andrews.
Andrews gave Griffin the go-ahead Thursday after examining the quarterback's surgically repaired right knee in Florida, where the Redskins were playing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a preseason game.
But Shanahan said at the time that Andrews also had "concerns" that needed to be addressed. Andrews contradicted the coach the next day in a series of text messages, saying he had "no concerns."
Nevertheless, Shanahan said Andrews voiced those concerns Sunday in a conference call with Griffin, general manager Bruce Allen and team athletic trainer Larry Hess. The call, the coach, was aimed at "making sure we're all on the same page."
The conclusion? Shanahan said Griffin is "ready to go _ full-speed ahead."
Asked what the concerns are, Shanahan said he would leave it to Griffin to disclose them. Griffin is scheduled to address reporters Wednesday.
Asked to explain why Dr. Andrews said Friday there were no concerns, Shanahan said: "That's not what he shared with Robert. That's not what he shared with me."
Asked why a doctor would clear a player if the doctor had concerns, Shanahan said: "You have to know what his concerns are. I understand that, but I don't share those conversations, so we'll have to go from there. You'll have to trust us that the doctor feels good about it, regardless of what those concerns were."
Asked if the concerns had to do with how Griffin is used on the field, Shanahan said: "I don't think a doctor would ever say anything like that if he cleared somebody to play. I'm not sure a doctor would ever say anything that has to do with the strategy of football."
Shanahan did indicate that the team has learned from last season, when Griffin missed all or part of four games due to various injuries. The general perception is that the read-option offense makes Griffin more vulnerable to injury, even though his injuries came on drop-back passes, usually when trying to scramble.
The bottom line is that Griffin will start, making a remarkably expedited return for last year's NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year. It's been only eight months since Andrews repaired two ligaments in Griffin's knee a few days after the Redskins' playoff loss to the Seattle Seahawks in January.
Rehabbing throughout the offseason with an "all in for Week 1" mantra, Griffin didn't miss a day of training camp, His practice snaps were limited and he wasn't allowed to play in a preseason game. He was frustrated about not being allowed to do more, but Shanahan maintained it was all done with an eye on the regular season.
Teammates said Griffin has moved especially well in practice the last week or so.
Notes: S Brandon Meriweather, the other starter recovering from reconstructive knee surgery, was sore Monday and did not practice. … NT Barry Cofield said he restructured his contract in the last few days to help the team get under the salary cap. … As expected, fourth-string QB Pat White will spend the week impersonating Philadelphia QB Michael Vick in practice. … Griffin and LT Trent Williams were voted offensive captains for the season. LB London Fletcher and Cofield were chosen the defensive captains. The special teams captain, which can change game by game during the first half of the season, will be S Reed Doughty for the opener.

Joshua Little, a defensive end from Oklahoma City, verbally committed to Kansas State on Wednesday.
The 6-foot-3, 225-pounder is a three-star recruit, according to Rivals, which first reported the commitment.
Little held scholarship offers from several power-conference teams, including Purdue, Washington State and Iowa State. But he chose K-State after meeting with Bill Snyder last month.
He is the eighth known member of K-State's 2015 recruiting class.

Tom Lehman won the 2011 Regions Tradition on his way to the Charles Schwab Cup Points title on the Champions Tour. When Nicklaus, Palmer, and Player played together in Houston on Saturday, it was a wonderful moment for everyone at The Woodlands Country Club and countless players went out to watch them after they finished their second rounds. You do not get to see them together too often anymore so you try to take advantage of such an opportunity.
He is very happy for all of the players who are being inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame tonight. Lehman said that he is not sure if he has done enough to earn induction although he has accomplished a lot in his career. When asked about revisions to the induction criteria, Lehman admitted that he had not thought a lot about it but if pressed on it, he would say that players should be inducted on a case by case basis and age should certainly be considered.
Rickie Fowler is a very appealing player and his own 6-year-old son wears a Puma hat like the kind that Rickie wears. When he thinks about Rickie as a player and as a person, Lehman said that he is very impressed with Rickie because he is not only a great player with a great work ethic, he is also a nice person with a great sense of respect for and politeness towards his elders. You do not see those qualities in people Rickie's age that often anymore so whenever you encounter someone like Rickie it is a great thing.
Seve Ballesteros passed away one year ago today and when he thinks about Seve, Lehman said that he remembers how kind he was to he and his wife over the years. As competitive and intense as he could be on the golf course, Seve was incredibly generous and kind off the course and was never above reaching out to other players and offering advice. Lehman feels very fortunate that Seve was nice enough to reach out to him and offer him advice which would help him become a better player. He has heard the descriptions of Seve as an artist and while he agrees, he thinks that Seve was very much like Arnold Palmer for the European Tour.
The Regions Tradition has a great history on the Champions Tour and Shoal Creek in Birmingham, Alabama is the perfect home for this tournament. All of the people in the city and at the Club are wonderful and it is inspiring to see all of the charities that benefit from the Regions Tradition. When he played there and won in 2011, Lehman said that he felt very much at home on that course.

Bobcats (Lynx rufus) are small robust cats that inhabit much of North America. They can range in color from tawny brown to reddish, and can vary in their in their degree of spotting. In southern California they weigh between 12-25lbs (5.5-11.4kg), with the males generally being about 4-7lbs larger than the females. Their tails are shorter than those of most cats, about 10in (24cm), but not absent as is sometimes thought, and their tails can often easily be seen from a distance.
Bobcats: Living on the Urban Edge
We have been continuously studying and radio-tracking bobcats in the area since 1996, one of the longest bobcat studies ever. From this long term study, we have found that bobcats are still present in many of the remaining habitat fragments throughout the Simi Hills from Thousand Oaks to Calabasas and surrounding communities. Prior to 2002 they had relatively high survival rates in these areas. Bobcats mainly reside in the natural areas, although some individuals will visit the surrounding neighborhoods occasionally and a few will do so frequently. This may be in part due to animals passing through residential areas attempting to link habitat fragment together that on their own have become too small to support a bobcat home range. However the lush landscapes of residential areas also attract many types of smaller animals which provide a great food source for bobcats. Bobcats are strict carnivores. We have found through scat studies that bobcats in this area mainly prey on rabbits, but also consume other small animals such as woodrats, squirrels, pocket gophers, and mice, all of which can be plentiful in urban areas.
Although these bobcats in our urban study area are occasionally killed by human related events such as vehicle strikes, and dog attacks, these events are relatively rare, and likely don't affect the population. However starting in the spring of 2002 we witnessed a disease epidemic in urban bobcats, and their numbers decreased dramatically in the following months and years. Animals were dying with severe infections of notoedtric mange, a disease caused by microscopic mites in the skin. Since 2002, more than 30 collared bobcats have died with mange infections. In addition to having mange disease, all of these individuals also tested positive for exposure to the anticoagulant chemicals commonly found in some types of rodenticides (rat poisons), and most of them had relatively high levels of the compounds. Bobcats generally do not die directly from these poisons, but rather tend to ingest sub-lethal levels of the chemicals, which over time may make them more susceptible to other diseases. Further evidence of the impact of this mange disease epidemic has been seen in our scat surveys. Bobcat scats are counted and collected monthly along specific trails and fire roads. By the fall of 2002, the number of bobcat scats collected dropped by about 70%, indicating a steep decline in the bobcat populations of the area. The number of scats has remained low since this time. Research is still being conducted to determine exactly how exposure to anticoagulant chemicals increases an individual's susceptibility to mange, but current data suggests there is a high correlation between anticoagulant exposure and severe mange infections eventually resulting in death.
To prevent secondary poisoning of bobcats and other wildlife, we suggest residents and business owners try to use other types of rodent control such as rodent-proofing buildings and food storage areas and using wooden snap traps or rat-zappers. If rodenticides must be used, avoid ones with anticoagulant chemicals such as bromadialone, difethialone, or diphacinone. Alternative rodenticides include chemicals such as zinc phosphide, which are still toxic to other animals, but thought to have fewer long-term effects.

Irene popped over for a quick chat, but couldn't stop. She had places to go, things to do; pity she couldn't remember what they were. But it would come to her.
Tu-Tu decided to join Maggie. Trouble was, she wanted the best spot and Maggie was already occupying it. Maybe if she stuck her head under the Orpington, Maggie would find it so uncomfortable that she'd move. Worth a try.
That didn't work - in fact Pom-Pom came over to see what on earth was going on! She's not a dustbathing fan herself, more of a sun worshipper if the truth be known. She's happy stretching out (preferably on someone's lap), eyes closed and with one wing and one leg extended, catching a few rays. Bliss!
It was a different kettle of fish altogether when Titian popped over from the other side of the garden.
If you think Tu-Tu was put out at being shifted over to the tree, you can imagine how exasperated Maggie was. She'd been robbed of the very best bathing spot. She's not one for picking fights though. She has a more subtle approach.
I think the idea was that if she made Titian uncomfortable enough, she'd leave. Then Maggie could move back.
But then the last straw arrived .......
..... in the shape of Fizz. He enjoys mixed bathing.
Unfortunately, the girls don't and, as one, they all got up and left.
PS Sorry the photographs are not up to the usual good standard, but No. 1 Son wasn't at home, so I took them myself.

Westerns used to be all about cowboys and Indians, horses and cattle, blazing guns and action. While those elements are certainly tried and true and still worth paying attention to, these days, the western can take some very interesting turns. (Personally, I like all of the above with generous chunks of open skies, mountains, prairies & canyons thrown in!) But if you are looking for something a little beyond the traditional western, check out our Weirdly Western link. There you'll find gothic westerns, westerns with horror or science fiction elements thrown in, and other stories that tend to play fast and loose with our much loved myths of the west. Follow the link above, or click on the Books tab from our homepage and scroll down to Westerns, then look for the link on the left side on the page. Happy Hunting!

English speakers may be surprised to learn that the etymology of nice is not very nice at all and that its semantic development is unparalleled in the Romance languages. This word, which style guides recommend that you avoid as it both ubiquitous and nearly devoid of all meaning, has a most complicated semantic evolution.
The word nice is attested quite early in French – ca 1160 and has its roots in the Latin nescius, an adjective meaning 'ignorant, unknowing'.[1] The word was used in French (and other Romance languages) in Middle English (c. 1400) to disparage people, actions and sayings as silly or foolish. This is the meaning the word retained in the Romance languages, though in French the word is rather uncommon today though you may find it in some older texts to refer to someone as simple or naive, such as those the TLF cites: Un brave homme, un peu nice, appelé Monthyon (Pommier,Colères,1844, p.66)
The semantic development of the word nice in English is a rather complicated affair as its entry in the OED explains as it breaks down the fourteen (!) senses the word has had over the centuries. From the original meaning of 'foolish, silly, simple', the word went on to be used with a wide variety of senses: slothful, effeminate, shy, wanton, meticulous. The current sense of nice as 'agreeable, pleasant' doesn't show up until the mid-eighteenth century and has now overtaken all the earlier meanings.
In Anglo-Norman, the word nice only seems to have been in its Latinate meaning of 'foolish, ignorant', so it doesn't seem that the development in English is due to Anglo-Norman and it doesn't appear that the Middle English use of the word particularly affected the use in Anglo-Norman. A more Latinate form is also attested in Anglo-Norman in the entry nescient, with the same meaning as nice, a form that is equally attested in English (nescient), though at a much later date (c. 1500).
|Carrow Psalter, Fool with bladder on stick eating cusped loaf, Walters Manuscript W.34, fol. 113r detail
A similar separation of the languages appears in their respective uses of another word to refer to a simple or ignorant person, naif.[2] Naif is derived from the same Latin word nativus that would give us native in English, and nearly all the citations for naif demonstrate this sense of naturalness or nativeness.
English develops several forms of the same word – naif, naïf, or naive – but none are attested prior to the 16th century. They all enter English with the sense of 'native inhabitant or bondsman', meanings much closer to their Anglo-Norman counterpart. In English, naive does not develop the current meaning of 'unsophisticated, credulous' until some time in the seventeenth century.
One citation from Gower, a medieval writer of Latin, English and Anglo-Norman works, suggests an interpretation for naif closer to the moden usage of 'foolish, naive':
Plus nyve que le prisonner Qui tout jour voit l'uiss desfermé Dont il pourroit en saulf aler, Mais ne se voet desprisonner, Tanq'il au gibet soit mené GOWER Mirour 5695
trans: More foolish than the prisoner who all day sees an unlocked door, Out of which he could go safely, But does not wish to free himself Until he is led to the gallows.
Surprisingly, natif does not seem to be well attested in Anglo-Norman, despite the fact that the form is found in Old French from the twelfth century.[3] In Anglo-Norman, natif is currently found only in a few late glosses of Nequam's De Nominus Ustensilium, as a gloss to Latin nativam, alongside the more usual naif, as well as in some late parliamentary rolls with the sense of 'native inhabitant' It is the term naif which is used most frequently in Anglo-Norman to refer to the feudal state of bondsman but it is attested a few times from the 13th century, often modified by fol, to mean a foolish person.
|King Solomon instructing his son, Bible historiale, Clairefontaine and Paris (1411)
So if calling someone 'nice' means you are actually calling that person an idiot, how can you refer to someone clever? In medieval French the term generally used for this was cointe, which could be used to call someone clever, or quick-witted or skillful.[4] It was a fine line however, as the same term was used to call someone crafty or devious – you could be clever, but not too clever! The term is derived from the Latin adjective cognitus, meaning 'wise' or 'clever' and continues to have a positive sense in Modern French ('joli, agréable), though it is considered an archaic term.
Cointe was borrowed into Middle English, but you might recognize it under the more familiar form of quaint. When it first entered English, it was used in similar senses to the use in Anglo-Norman, that is, to characterize things that were cunning or clever or skilful. However, it certainly no longer has this sense, but generally connotes something that is pleasingly old-fashioned, a meaning the word would acquire some time in the mid-eighteenth century.
So be careful when addressing a medieval re-enactor! Your 'Nice job!' may not be the compliment you intend!

Earthly Angels & Other Love Songs
- Artist: Doug Henninger
- Genre: Country
- Release Date: 2/6/2007
'Earthly Angels' is breaking down the boundaries of true country music and taking your emotions under it's wings! - It's all new music for the real America, never recorded before, written entirely from the heart and imagination! - It's shaped by the influence of true 'mountain music' that originated in the hills of east Tennessee. - It's authentic music from the heart and soul... no additives! The arrangements and instrumentation are polished, yet deliver that true dynamic spark that let's you know you have discovered something special. And you have! There is musical variety here for everyone: Real 'mountain music' relating true events from the Great Smokey Mountains ('The Moonshiner's Code' and 'The Brown Mountain Lights'), mainline country and honky tonk ('Yonder Goes A Rich Man' and 'A Cheater'), as well as 'big sky country' tunes to evoke the American West as it came to a close ('Wyoming', 'A Gambler's Life' and 'Canyon Grande'). But you have only begun; there is much, much more! You have to 'crush' on these timely songs that include a fresh view of romance and modern love: - 'We Need To Talk' (a modern love song featuring a brother/sister duet about the 4 words every man hopes NOT to hear!) - 'What's Your Name?' (another romantic duet with a dreamy blues treatment of unexpected romantic electricity) - 'Can You Hear Me Now?' (a current and clever song about 'romantic disconnect') ... as well as the inspiring 'Way Out On The Horizon' to celebrate your own adventurous heart! And you have never heard a romantic tale of chivalry quite like 'The Jester And The King', a fantasy creation of the best in 'Renaissance aire' with a lovely surprise ending for listeners of all ages! The remarkable artistry displayed in the keyboard re-creation of courtly 'pipes' is a delight to sweep you into a land of forever after. ... Listen now! But there is emotional depth and purity in the two featured songs... The title track ('Earthly Angels') is an anthem to dogs that arose from a beautiful dream of insight into the ancient relationship between dogs and humans. It's an inspired gift of melody and lyrics to reveal a deep devotion that began more than ten thousand years ago. You can read details of the remarkable creation of 'Earthly Angels' in the CD insert when your copy arrives! The tender 'Our Two Lives' continues the theme by exploring the 'together yet separate' nature of the dog/human existence. Both emotionally charged songs celebrate the only true interspecies relationship of unconditional love and companionship in Nature: the mutual devotion shared between Human and Dog. These two songs alone are 'worth the price of admission' and will change the heart and mind of all who have a fondness for dogs. If you cry a little, it's just your true love showing through! Those who have adopted and supported efforts to rescue and 'rehome' dogs will feel a part of their own life and emotions revealed in these remarkable musical treasures. They introduce a new genre of music called 'dog songs' as people worldwide awaken to their own humanity through an appreciation of our only true link to Nature. From the 'OurEarthlyAngels' website: 'the Dog: not Man's best friend... Man's ONLY friend in Nature...' There is nothing out there like 'Earthly Angels'. It is a unique gem of creativity that introduces a freshness and authenticity in music for a new era in America. Come along on a new journey of the heart and mind!

holiday sales tips - 10 Holiday Sales Tips - How to Cash in on the Season
by Chris Malta
1. Fine-tune your web site.
The biggest buying season of the year is not the time to have a slow-loading site or pages not found - busy holiday shoppers won't wait around.
2. Guide your customers' experience.
Organize your products in a way that makes it easy for customers to zero in on what they're looking for. Group items into categories such as "Gifts for Him," "Gifts for Her," "Toys for Ages 2-4," etc.
3. Offer gift certificates.
Explains Rincon, "Many buyers don't know exactly what to get, and a gift certificate is a great alternative." With online delivery, buyers can purchase all the way up to, and even on Christmas Day and still have purchases reach their recipients on time.
4. Offer gift wrapping and gift cards.
People shop online to save time and avoid hassles. They don't have time to physically receive the gifts they order, then wrap and resend them. By providing this service, you add value to your products and gain a competitive edge.
5. Offer wish lists.
Many shopping cart systems already have a wish list feature built in. Shoppers should be able to choose what they like from your site, create a list, and store it there for other buyers to reference, or have it emailed directly to them.
Make shipping and delivery information highly visible on your web site.
Holiday shoppers' number one concern is that their recipients' packages arrive on time. Make it easy for your customers - tell them exactly how many days they have left to order and be sure their gifts will arrive by Christmas.
7. Offer free shipping.
You're not taking a loss here - you're just building those costs into your price. According to a survey by Shopping.org, seventy-five percent of consumers view free shipping as a major selling point. When they don't have to calculate those extra fees, it's that much simpler and more convenient for them. So in the end, both you and your customer are happy.
8. Utilize pay-per-click advertising.
This type of marketing produces quick turnaround. Decide on your budget and keywords, but be flexible as you go and make adjustments as needed.
9. Build an email campaign around the holidays.
Suggests Rincon, "Use your newsletters and emails to share gift tips and announce special sales. Mix informational newsletters with promotions and product specials."
10. Offer multiple payment options.
Buyers expect to be able to pay by credit card, and PayPal and other alternative payments are becoming more widespread. You severely limit your sales and your customers when you only accept payments by money order or wire transfer, so offer as many options as you can.
With online sales projected at thirty-three billion dollars this holiday season, there's plenty of profit to go around the eCommerce industry. By employing these simple techniques in your e-business, you can maximize your share of those sales and cash in on the year's busiest retail season.

Tow a motor home by attaching the vehicle to a truck using a tow bar and several tow cables. Ensure that other drivers can see your turning and braking signals by attaching the truck's electrical system to the motor home's. After attaching all the necessary components, tow the motor home at a low speed, and avoid any unnecessarily sharp turns.Continue Reading
Before connecting the truck to the motor home, make sure the truck has a heavy duty tow hitch and a towing capacity capable of towing the motor home's full weight. The motor home cannot be towed directly; it requires a tow bar for safety. Attach the tow bar to the motor home by bolting it to the motor home's frame. Most tow bars feature a durable steel plate that accommodates many different motor home types and sizes. Even with the tow bar, towing a motor home is dangerous and requires using steel tow cables or chains to minimize instability.
When actually towing the vehicle, give yourself three to four times as much room to decelerate and brake as you normally require when not towing anything. Regardless of the actual size of the motor home, treat the truck as though it is 100 feet longer when maneuvering. Try to make only left turns if possible, as most right turns are too sharp for such a cumbersome towing setup. Only tow the motor home to the nearest dealership or service station, as extended towing with a truck can cause extensive damage to the motor home's chassis.Learn more about Vehicles

Steve Lyston | Advice to Trump: Be like Nehemiah
As the world awaits the proverbial 'changing of the guard' in the United States of America, some are fearful, meanwhile many are jubilant. As I have said many times before, God is the one who promotes and demotes. He does whatever He pleases. We may not understand God's will, but we must pray each day. If President-elect Donald Trump wants to be successful and legitimately 'make America great again', then he should take a cue from Nehemiah.
First, Nehemiah identified who the survivors were, and in the case of the USA, the forgotten, the poor, fatherless, widows, the distressed, dejected, discontented, those in despair, the abandoned communities and the veterans and their families or surviving families. Repair and strengthen the institution of family which is broken. The family is the first line of government in any nation.
Nobody listens to the poor (Ecclesiastes 9: 16). Don't listen only to the wealthy, but also to the poor. There are many who are poor with excellent solutions, but because of poverty they are despised and ignored. There are many who are rich but speak utter nonsense, yet it is gobbled up by the media and those lacking ideas. Wealth is not the mark of success. There are many who have been through many losses and failures, but have gained wisdom and have become true champions. It is sometimes a lack of opportunity or of a second chance that keep people in poverty.
Second, before making any major change, there will need to be four months of prayer to build a foundation, and for God to give Him guidance, tactics and strategies. The next four months will be critical to his presidency. Prayer is essential to leadership; he has proven this through his campaign. Prayer brings great vision to fruition. One of his prayers should be Nehemiah 1: 5 - 11, and that God will cause America to return to Him. He also has to repent on behalf of the nation for all that they have done, and for how America has, in general, forsaken God. He has to pray that God will forgive the mistakes of past administrations, and that God will heal the division within the nation.
As a wise leader, Nehemiah refrained from sharing his ideas with people until he has actually assessed matters and prayerfully considered the cost. There are two major things Trump has to do: repair and rebuild.
In repairing, Trump has to identify what was good from the previous administrations, then enhance and strengthen those things. For example, regarding immigration, he has to tread carefully, because part of what made America great was immigration. People came to America for opportunity, religious and economic reasons. They were welcomed and given the opportunity to legally inhabit, and that allowed America to be blessed. He has to discern who has come to build and who has come to destroy. Immigrants have been some of the most successful persons to help build America.
For example, the Transcontinental Railroad was built by the Chinese, which caused the nation to get a quick passage from east to west. The journey that usually took 4-6 months then took six days.
All eight great-grandparents of President John F. Kennedy and his siblings came to the United States on the 'coffin ships' to Boston Harbour and passed through the city's immigration hall.
Immigrants do not steal jobs; they do the jobs that Americans don't want. Immigrants always help the economy, whether they come here willingly or are forced to. It is going to be critical who advises him on this issue, as this has the potential to create another civil war, something I have also seen in a vision. Allow illegal immigrants the opportunity of a pathway to citizenship as this will also contribute towards reducing poverty, because they will be required to pay taxes, contribute to the school and economic systems and the real estate industry, while reducing the burden on the government to provide public assistance.
Furthermore, the armed forces must become modernized, the space programme needs to be revamped, greater attention must be given for developments in livestock/agriculture, water and energy.
Maintain the dream act and sanctuary cities. Avail funds to faith-based NGOs, without discrimination, to rebuild communities. Aggressively deal with drug lords, extortionists and their partners, as their actions interfere with foreign exchange and trade.
Pay greater attention to giving our children high-quality education and to training the teachers.
Give debt write-offs to, and ease regulations on, Caribbean and African nations.
Give grants for development and expansion of solar energy technology for poorer countries. Then the people will unite and rebuild.
