Though Turkish Delight was said to have brought peace to a sultan's quarreling harem, Americans seeking out the candy after watching The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe may wonder if Edmund Pevensie couldn't have gotten a better price for his soul.
Though sales for the delectable confection are up 200 percent in the United Kingdom, there has been no major effort to introduce the candy to American Narnia fans, says Bernie Pacyniak, editor in chief of Candy Industry. In the United States, he says, Turkish Delight is an ethnic treat only found in specialty stores.
"It was hard for people to get accustomed to dark chocolate," Pacyniak says. "It will take longer for Turkish Delight."
However, it is quite popular across the pond. Perhaps the U.K. has popularized the treat by altering it to fit British tastes. Cadbury, which manufactures Turkish Delight (but isn't marketing it to Narnia fans), sells the candy covered in chocolate.
Real Turkish Delight has a jelly consistency, like marshmallows, and has fruit and nuts with a covering of confectioner's sugar, says Jordan Bayazit, the Turkish owner of Bayco Confectionery, the only major North American manufacturer of Turkish Delight, which it makes exclusively.
Unlike Cadbury, Bayco is blitzing its marketing of Turkish Delight. "We've been gearing up for three months," says Bayazit. For the past year, they have been selling gift boxes of the candy that include a copy of the first book in C. S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia. "We are aware of the fact that Turkish Delight is part and parcel of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," he says.
Unfortunately, Turkish Delight goes stale quickly, says Bayazit, so few in the United States have tasted it fresh. "Americans ...1

Red Sox beat Blue Jays, 6-4, in John Farrell's return to Toronto
TORONTO — It was the fourth game of the season for both teams, just a few steps down a long road. But the atmosphere at Rogers Centre on Friday night made it feel like something so much more.
An angry throng of 45,328 filled nearly every seat of the usually placid dome to heckle and boo Red Sox manager John Farrell, the man who had the temerity to abandon their team last fall to return to Boston.
But it was Farrell who walked away smiling, his team drawing on the energy in the building to help fuel a 6-4 victory.
"You get those little goose bumps going to the plate with the house going crazy. That's a quick character check,'' said Jonny Gomes, who scored the go-ahead run in the eighth inning. "We're starting to be tight-knit. Go booing any of our guys, we've got your back. Go booing our manager, we've got your back.''
With the score 4-4 in the eighth, Farrell sent up Gomes to hit for Daniel Nava against Toronto reliever Brett Cecil. The lefthander had struck out four of the six batters he faced to that point.
Because Gomes hits lefthanders well, Farrell expected Blue Jays manager John Gibbons to bring in righthander Esmil Rogers. That was fine with him.
"I was wanting that matchup versus Cecil versus Nava in that situation,'' Farrell said. "I'd rather have the righthander in the game than the lefthander.''
It worked. Gomes walked on five pitches and ended up on third base when Dustin Pedroia doubled to center.
Mike Napoli, who earlier had belted a two-run homer, hit a hard ground ball to third base. Maicer Izturis fielded the ball on his knees and did not have a play at the plate.
The Sox added another run in the ninth inning when Will Middlebrooks lined a solo home run to left field off Jeremy Jeffress.
When Joel Hanrahan finished off Toronto for this second save, the 3-1 Red Sox had a victory from which they took a lot of satisfaction.
"It's a great atmosphere, great game,'' Farrell said. "For those who maybe only see our dugout on TV, the energy that's in there, the amount of positive comments, guys pulling for one another — this is a very good group that's coming together pretty darned quick.''
The Sox won despite going 2 for 19 with runners in scoring position and leaving 15 runners on base. They collected 12 hits and six walks off four Toronto pitchers, putting runners in scoring position every inning but the third.
"We missed some chances. But we kept coming,'' Napoli said.
Napoli gave the Sox a 4-1 lead in the fifth inning with a two-run homer off Blue Jays starter Josh Johnson. With Pedroia on first base, Napoli hammered a fastball the other way.
Napoli was 2 for 16 before the line-drive shot.
"I haven't been feeling too good at the plate. My timing was off a little bit,'' he said. "I'm working every day and feeling better and better with every at-bat. I'll go from here and do what I can.''
Felix Doubront needed 90 pitches to get through five innings. He left with a 4-3 lead, having allowed nine hits. The lefthander struck out six without a walk.
Junichi Tazawa allowed a home run in the seventh inning by the incandescent Jose Reyes, who was 4 for 5 with three extra-base hits. But the bullpen was otherwise a rock as Koji Uehara, Andrew Bailey, and Hanrahan had scoreless innings.
Bailey left two runners stranded in the eighth inning to hold the lead. Hanrahan threw 16 pitches in the ninth inning. All were fastballs from 97-99 miles per hour.
"That was amazing to see,'' said rookie left fielder Jackie Bradley Jr., who got on base twice, stole his first base, and threw a runner out at third. "All our relievers were throwing the ball hard. People were pretty fired up for this game. All I know is that it was a lot of fun.''
Toronto, which loaded its roster with star players after Farrell left, is off to a 1-3 start. The Jays were without slugger Jose Bautista, who injured his right ankle on Thursday.
Red Sox shortstop Jose Iglesias left the game in the fourth inning with a deep bruise on his right forearm.
Iglesias was hit by a fastball from Johnson in the second inning. He walked away from the plate holding his arm and the crowd booed. The boos got louder when Farrell came out to check on him.
Iglesias stayed in the game and made the best defensive play of the young season in the third inning.
With Reyes on first base, Melky Cabrera grounded a ball into the third base hole. Iglesias ranged far to his right, backhanded the ball, and made a strong throw across his body to force the speedy Reyes at second.
But Iglesias felt his arm tighten and was pinch hit for in the fourth. His replacement, Pedro Ciriaco, was 2 for 4 with an RBI. Iglesias is day-to-day and will be further examined on Saturday.
The crowd grew a little rowdy in the sixth inning, throwing garbage on the field that had to be cleared away. Some of the debris was directed at Farrell. But the Sox manager laughed it off, saying the atmosphere was fun.
"It was a great ballgame. A lot going on to take notice of,'' he said. "There was a lot of excitement.''

The living room is one of the most important rooms in any household. Whether you have a large family or you entertain regularly, chances are your living room will be one of the most frequently occupied rooms in your home. To make sure you're getting the most out of your living room furniture, here are a few tips for selecting something that can withstand the wear and tear of heavy use.
Be realistic about your budget. Though you don't want to spend a fortune on a new set of furniture, you also don't want to get caught buying anything that's cheaply-made. Selecting solid wood-framed pieces might cost you a few extra dollars, but you'll be happy when your sofa hasn't fallen apart after just a few years of use.
Choose upholstery wisely. Certain materials are more resistant to various aging factors than others. For instance, while microfiber and leather are stain-resistant, cotton is not; likewise, cotton is resistant to moths while wool is attacked by them. Depending on your home and lifestyle, the fabrics that you want in your upholstery may vary, so make sure to do extensive research before buying.
Get a feel for what's inside. The material that your furniture is stuffed with is just as important as the material it's covered with. Polyurethane foam fillings are inexpensive and easy to care for, though they can deteriorate more rapidly than high-resilient foam or down feathers.
Although down feathers are cushy and soft, they clump together easily, they can be allergenic, and feathers can stick out through the upholstery. Often, combination materials like foam/down or foam/polyester are the best choices due to their affordability and durability.
Try it before you buy it. While you may only have a few minutes of exposure to a piece of furniture in a showroom setting, there are a few tests you can run to ensure its quality. First, lift up one leg of the furniture six inches off the ground.
If the other legs remain on the ground, then the frame is not very durable. Also try rubbing the fabric 20-30 times to test for colorfastness, and sit on it in a few different positions to make sure that the springs aren't low-quality or uncomfortable.
As with any type of investment, make sure you know what you're getting yourself into before purchasing your living room set. Furniture store sales associates like those at Jaron's Furniture are knowledgeable about the durability and materials used in the pieces in their showrooms. Remember, it's not just about style; you want furniture that can stand up to all of the happenings in your home.

Nokia had higher than expected Lumia sales for its fourth quarter thanks to the release of the Lumia 900 last spring and 920 in September. The company sold 4.4 million handsets, up from 2.9 million in Q3.
For perspective, though, Apple sold about 27 million iPhones in the third quarter of 2012, and Nokia is also warning that the first quarter of 2013 doesn't look so hot.
Still, the positive sales trend gives some hope that Nokia has a shot at survival. Well, it's a start. [Nokia]

Controlling Catholic media
November 20, 2009, 3:21 pm
Posted by Paul Moses
There are some interesting comments from the ChicagoTribune.com, U.S. Catholic and National Catholic Reporter about what a statement by Cardinal Francis George means for Catholic media ( does that include this blog??) and, by the way, what it might mean to Commonweal. Here is what the cardinal said in opening remarks at the recent meeting of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops:
If there is a loosening of relationship between ourselves and those whom Christ has given us to govern in love, it is for us to reach out and re-establish connections necessary for all to remain in communion. As you know, we have recently begun discussions on how we might strengthen our relationship to Catholic universities, to media claiming the right to be a voice in the Church, [italics added] and to organizations that direct various works under Catholic auspices. Since everything and everyone in Catholic communion is truly inter-related, and the visible nexus of these relations is the bishop, an insistence on complete independence from the bishop renders a person or institution sectarian, less than fully Catholic. The purpose of our reflections, therefore, is to clarify questions of truth or faith and of accountability or community among all those who claim to be part of Catholic communion.

ps Note for Australian readers: Cardinal George should not be confused with our very own George Cardinal
Here they are in pictorial form should you bump into one of them down the street.George Cardinal likes to wear the big red number when he goes out as it employs a few lads to carry the excess material. As far as I know this gear does not include pockets so I am not sure where George 1 carries his Ipod and mobile. Perhaps he has a secret compartment in the red hat.

Figure 2 shows the data structure of the internal state
S. This C struct, named
spongeState, contains eight fields, two of which are aligned arrays (marked in red). The
state[] field holds the actual state bytes, while the
dataQueue[] field holds the message bytes to be combined and permutated.
Figure 2: The struct holding the internal state of the Keccak hash function.
The capacity field is the hash capacity (
c). Its value is set to twice the hash size (
2*n). The rate field is the number of message bits processed per round. It is set to the value of
1600-c. The
bitsInQueue field is the number of message bits left in the
dataQueue[] field. The
fixedOutputlength field is the desired hash size (
n). The squeezing field is a mode flag. When set to zero, Keccak is in compression mode. When set to 1, Keccak is in extraction mode. And the field
bitsAvailableForSqueezing holds the number of state bits that can be assembled into the final message hash.
Keccak uses 24 permutation rounds to reduce the message text into a hash. Each round invokes five modules in succession as shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3: The modules invoked in each permutation round.
The theta module renders the internal state into a 5-by-5 array of 64-bit elements. It computes the parities of each column and combines them with an exclusive-or (
XOR) operator. Then it
XORs the resulting parity to each state bit as follows:
S[i][j][k] ^= parity(S[0...4][j-1][k]) ^ parity(S[0...4][j+1][k-1]) where i = 0...4; j = 0...4; k = 0...63
The rho module rotates each 64-bit element by a triangular number. However, it excludes element
S[0][0] from rotation. The phi module permutates the 64-bit elements. Permutation follows the fixed pattern assignment shown below:
S[j][2*i + 3*j] = S[i][j]
The chi module adds a non-linear aspect to the permutation round. It combines the row elements using only three bitwise operators:
NOT, and
XOR. Then it writes the result back to the state array as follows:
S[i][j][k] ^= ~S[i][j + 1][k] & S[i][j + 2][k]
The iota module breaks up any symmetry caused by the other modules. This it does by
XORing one of the array elements to a round constant. The module has 24 round constants to choose from. These constants are defined internally by Keccak. The Keccak source code in C is, however, too large to be listed here in its entirety.
Evaluating SHA-3
So, how does SHA-3 compare against its predecessors SHA-1 and SHA-2? To answer this question, I subjected the three hash functions to four separate tests:
- The first test is the collisions test. Here, I prepare a set of message texts and have the hash functions process each text. A well-designed hash function should emit a unique hash for each text, even if the two texts differ by a mere character. If a collision does occur, it should be rare, with a complexity of at least 2
- The second test is a run-bit test. This test reveals how well the bits are distributed on the hash value. Ideally, a hash value should have a balanced number of 1s and 0s. If we divide the hash by two and count the number of 1s on each half, we should get an equal count. If one half has more 1s than the other, it means a potential skew, which could translate to a possible collision.
- The next test is the avalanche or cascade test. This one measures a hash function's ability to react to changes in a message text. Ideally, a change in one message byte should cause about half the hash bytes to change; and the changes should happen uniformly along the hash. Too small or too large a change might be indicative of a collision.
- My final test is a timing test. This usefully measures how fast a hash function can process the message text. A good hash function should take no more than half a second to process a large message text. Longer hash times are undesirable, especially if the function is to be used as part of a high-traffic service.
Table 1 shows how SHA-3 compares with its two predecessors. The test machine is an Apple MacBook with a 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and 2GB of DDR2 RAM. The operating system is MacOS X 10.6.7. The test message is an excerpt from the William Shakespeare's play Hamlet the "To be or not to be" soliloquy, consisting of 33 lines of text for a total of 261 words. Because SHA-1 can emit only 160-bit hashes, outputs for both SHA-2 and SHA-3 are restricted to 224 bits, the closest comparable size they emit.
Table 1: Comparing SHA-3 with its predecessors.
Compared with SHA-1 and SHA-2, SHA-3 has a smaller cascade rate. It changes only three hash bytes for every change in message byte. SHA-3 showed a slight bit of skew. The right half of its message hash has twelve more 1s than the left half. SHA-3 is faster than SHA-2, taking 2.80 nanoseconds less to hash the test message.
Table 2 shows how well SHA-3 performs when emitting four different hash sizes. The same machine and message text were used to obtain the test results.
Table 2: How well SHA-3 performs when emitting four different hash size.
Here, too, SHA-3 showed a small cascade rate for all four sizes. This seems to be characteristic of Keccak and its sponge engine. SHA-3 also showed a slight skew. Three of the message hashes have more 1 bits in their right halves than on their left. The 512-bit hash, however, has more 1 bits on its left half than on the right. SHA-3 is still faster, taking only 2.10 nanoseconds to produce a 512-bit message hash. That is 2.3 nanoseconds faster than a 256-bit SHA-2.
The tables do not show any collision test results, because the test itself did not find one. The test message is probably too short or too varied to induce a collision. However, larger message texts, especially those with minute variations, might cause at least one collision in one of the hash functions. The Xcode project FooSHA3 is available for reference.
Deploying SHA-3
SHA-3 has not yet made its way into most mainstream platforms. Some platforms (like MacOS X and iOS) still rely on the libcrypto library, which supplies only SHA-1 and SHA-2. One way to deploy SHA-3 to the desired platform is to compile the hash algorithm as a static library. You can then install the new library into
/usr/lib or
/usr/share, assuming you have write access to those directories. But there is another way to deploy SHA-3, one that works for both MacOS X and iOS, which is as a framework bundle.
A framework bundle is a hierarchical collection of files that together form a dynamic library. Unlike most bundles, a framework bundle is not opaque; its contents can be perused like those in a normal directory. Framework bundles can sit in a common area (such as
~/Library/Frameworks), or they can be copied into the application bundle and used as a private resource. Access to a framework bundle is through the
NSBundle class or through Core Foundation's Bundle Services.
Figure 4 shows the structure of the bundle
SHA3.framework. At its top level are four shortcuts and a directory named Versions. Inside that directory is another shortcut and the subdirectory A.
Figure 4: Installing SHA-3 as a framework bundle.
In subdirectory A are four items. The SHA3 file is the executable binary of the hash algorithm. The Resources directory holds the support files needed by the executable and by the framework. The Headers directory holds the source headers that a Cocoa app can import. And the PrivateHeaders directory holds those headers meant only for the framework to use.
Finally, the Current shortcut points to the location of the latest SHA3 executable, which is subdirectory A in this example. If a more recent executable is in another subdirectory, such as subdirectory B, the Current shortcut should point to that location instead. As for the remaining four shortcuts, they point to their respective framework items.

MIDDLEBURY — College sports is a big deal in Middlebury. Not big enough, says Charles T. Clotfelter.
The Duke University economics professor will deliver a lecture titled "What?! You Don't Take College Sports Seriously?" on Thursday, April 5, at 4:30 p.m. in Twilight Auditorium on the Middlebury campus.
"The cost of big time athletics is growing faster than anything else that universities do," Clotfelter said.

MIDDLEBURY — An opportunity to become a partial owner of a business in the town of his dreams in the industry of his choice came together for Jerrod Rushton as he is set to take over two-thirds ownership of the Middlebury Fitness Center on April 1.
Rushton is buying his two-thirds share from Rob Alberts and Sarah Raunecker, who co-founded the fitness center back in 1997 with co-owner Robert Falta. For his part, Falta had originally started with the Busy Bodies and Power Flex fitness center in Bristol in 1987.
MIDDLEBURY — "Vermont Born. Vermont Bred. Vermont Shred."
That's the slogan for Worth Mountain Designs LLC, a new Vermont company that designs customizable skis for Eastern skiers.
The company is co-owned by three Vermonters, Jason Duquette-Hoffman of Middlebury, Adrian Kostrubiak of Norwich and Dalton Harben of Cambridge. According to Duquette-Hoffman, all three are avid backcountry skiers who saw a business opportunity within their shared passion.
MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury weight-loss business Vtrim has widened its net and is lining up clients in the national health care, military and education sectors.
Vtrim was originally developed through the University of Vermont's division of continuing education. Vtrim bills itself as a gimmick-free, research-based program that dispenses individualized weight-loss information to participants through classes and on-line counseling from trained facilitators.
ADDISON COUNTY — A deep and disciplined Mount Abraham Union High School group enjoyed the best season among local girls' basketball teams, earning the top seed in Division II and reaching the final in Barre.
While the hard-working Eagles had many contributors, one stood out for her across-the-board efforts — sophomore Ashlie Fay, the 2012 Addison Independent Player of the Year.
I'm old enough that I sometimes look back on days gone by and wistfully express my longing for times past.
Well, I guess you don't have to be too terribly old to do that. I've heard my eight- and 10-year-olds deliver a significant pause and a hint of a sigh after recalling how things were back in the day, back when "Mawci" and "Dawci" would take the preschoolers at Mary Johnson out to play in the kiddie pool on hot summer days.

the rope was hissing from the boat like a living thing then came the long chase that ended in the conquest of the huge animal the ship that had been beat ing up came within one hundred yards and preparatians were made to haul it alongside this was almost accomplished when without warning the water became tilled with strange black forms with curious fins that projected from the ocean like masts a novice or green hand might have taken them for young whales whicii they certainly rasembled in some respects but the whalers knew better aud the shout of orcas !" went up from tbe boats

Book Blitz: Farewell, my Loves
by Jen Tirone
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Add to your TBR
Available Now!
Inspired by a true story.
There was no way to distinguish one from the other in my life.
Nothing in this world could destroy a bond as fierce as ours
Or so I believed ...
Because life interfered.
Impulsive decisions, reaped unyielding consequences.
Fate had a way of making you question your sanity.
Loyalties were blurred.
Priorities, poisoned.
And destiny ... destiny dispelled all our beliefs.
In the end love was just too consuming.
Tragic even.
Without a doubt, love ... crossed many unfathomable lines.
About the Author
There's nothing Jen loves more than the 'beauty of doing nothing', though you'll find her devouring a book in bliss if she's not lost in her world of writing.
She's a Miami girl to the fullest with an accent that makes her sound like a native Spanish speaker, but in actuality she can only defend herself in the language at best.
This Colombian-Italian descendant loves her pasta, espresso, wine and empanadas, and there isn't a dessert she can say no to.
Her stories have pieces of her edgy heart woven secretly between the pages and at the core of most of them is the essence of a true story.
Inspiration comes to her mostly through melancholy music and morbid family sagas, but random occurrences like a good night's sleep can do wonders for her imagination.

If you want coverage for a specific period of time or a specific break, consider buying single trip travel insurance. This is ideal for those who rarely travel out for vacations or holiday. The one more reason why it is popular with many people is that it is very cheap as compared to annual travel insurance.
The type of insurance always depends on the frequency of traveling. If you're a frequent travel, having journey cover for the entire year is a must to cover all your risks. But if you travel rarely, it is better to buy single trip insurance rather than not buying insurance.
Some people avoid buying journey cover thinking they don't need it as they travel just once or twice a year. What's there in store for you, no one knows. What can happen and when, this is beyond human imagination. To keep yourself safe and secure, covering your risk just for 5-10 percent of your total vacation investment is not too much. Rather, it is wise to transfer your journey risks to insurers. Some of single trip policies also offer life insurance and evacuation insurance.
Single trip policies cover only one trip or vacation. They offer almost the same advantages as annual insurance policies would give. The only difference is that the former provide coverage for a particular trip while latter covers the risk all through the year.
Single trip insurance cover includes loss caused due to flight delay, trip cancellation, flight cancellation due to rotten weather, any mishap such as excessive body ache, fever, accident, broken bones, medical emergencies, treatment and medication expenses, doctor's fee, ambulance expenses, etc. But all these benefits are limited to a single trip. If something didn't misshapen and it did not come in use, the policy gets expired and can not used again if you plan your travel for the second time.
If you think that buying insurance before traveling is a sheer wastage of money, you need to reconsider. Just imagine what would you do when you lose all your money or luggage while traveling and especially when you're overseas. It is not at all wastage of money rather protects you and allows you to travel with complete peace of mind.

UPDATE: Monday – 3/11/2013, 4:19pm ET
WASHINGTON – Metropolitan police are now reporting that 13 people were injured as a result of the drive-by shooting early Monday morning.
They are not releasing any other information at this time.
EARLIER: Monday – 3/11/2013, 12:31pm ET
WASHINGTON – Police are looking for two cars after a drive-by shooting outside a D.C. apartment building early Monday sent 11 people to the hospital, most with gunshot wounds.
"We have confirmed that we have 11 individuals that are injured. We have mostly gunshot wounds to the legs, extremities, hands, some graze wounds," Metropolitan Police Chief Cathy Lanier said during a morning news conference.
One person was shot in the lower back. Lanier could not confirm that all 11 of the injured had been shot. Except for one 17-year-old, those hurt are adults.
Earlier Monday, Assistant Police Chief Peter Newsham said one of the people wounded by gunfire was in serious condition. All of the injuries, he said, "appear to be non-life-threatening injuries."
The shootings occurred around 2:10 a.m. in front of Tyler House Apartments in the 1200 block of North Capitol Street NW. The apartment complex is 1 mile north of the U.S. Capitol.
Lanier says a large group of people was hanging out on the corner when a dark-colored car, followed by a lighter-colored car, drove by the group. Police say those in at least one of the cars opened fire.
It's not known yet whether anyone in the group fired back, Lanier says. The group may have been coming back from a club across the street that had closed 15 minutes earlier.
The lighter-colored car may be gray or silver, Lanier says.
Police released surveillance video of the incident showing the cars they're seeking:
The cars were driving along the service road in front of the apartments when the shooting started. Initial reports said one of the vehicles may have been a BMW, but after reviewing surveillance video, police say that may not be the case.
Anyone who may have seen the two cars driving southbound from the scene can call police at 202-727-9099. Police are offering a reward of up to $10,000 in the case.
Lanier says police are still gathering evidence at the scene and information from witnesses.
She says it's not yet known how many shots were fired.

AUBURN, Ala. (AP) � Texas A&M has flourished in a new offense, and quarterback Johnny Manziel has become an instant sensation.
AUBURN, Ala. (AP) � Texas A&M has flourished in a new offense, and quarterback Johnny Manziel has become an instant sensation.
The Auburn Tigers switched quarterbacks and offensive gears, too, with disastrous results.
The 22nd-ranked Aggies (5-2, 2-2 Southeastern Conference) land their high-flying offense in Auburn Saturday night against the Tigers, who haven�t managed to take off even after eight weeks languishing on the runway.
The quarterback play pretty much sums up how things have gone for both teams. Manziel is only a redshirt freshman but already has a cool nickname, Johnny Football, and close to Cam Newton-like stats for the SEC�s top offense.
�He�s a young guy that really is very mature beyond his years,� Auburn coach Gene Chizik said. �If you just watch his film, he�s got really an uncanny ability to just get a feel for the game and the pass rush. He sees things and he�s got just great vision for the field, and he extends plays. I�ve counted sometimes when he�s stood back there for 10 seconds before he ever made a move. That�s a long time for a quarterback.
�They help him a good bit with getting him in the right plays, which takes a lot off of a young quarterback. All those things combined, I think that�s why you�re seeing this offense being pretty high octane.�
Auburn (1-6, 0-5) has turned to Clint Moseley at quarterback the past two games after Kiehl Frazier struggled with mistakes and sluggish decision-making for the league�s worst offense. The results haven�t changed much, and the Tigers are off to their worst start in six decades two years after Newton ran and passed them to a national title with a no-huddle offense.
Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin insists he�s wary about a team that has repeatedly wilted in the fourth quarter.
�This is a prideful program two years off of a national championship,� Sumlin said. �If you look at recruiting rankings, they�ve had three straight top-10 recruiting classes. There are a lot of good players on this team. And this is one of the storied programs in college football. There�s tradition and pride. They�re playing at home and we�re going to get their best shot.
�A wounded animal is a lot of times the most dangerous.�
There have been few if any signs that�s poised to happen.
Auburn is planted in 118th nationally in total offense and one spot worse in scoring offense, out of 120 Football Bowl Subdivision teams. The Tigers have also been victimized for numerous negative plays and go against national sack leader Damontre Moore.
It�s been a rocky debut for offensive coordinator Scot Loeffler and his pro-style offense after a system that peaked with Newton and the national title team.
Now, they�re charged with trying to keep up with an offense that planted 58 points on an Arkansas defense that held Auburn to a single touchdown. Or at least keep Manziel off the field with sustained drives, which have been as elusive as the Aggies� quarterback.
�That�s our plan to win here, is to keep their offense off the field,� Loeffler said. �That�s going to be crucial. We�ve got to keep drives alive. We�ve got to keep them off the field.�
Manziel is second in the SEC in both rushing and passing. He has accounted for 24 touchdowns, while Auburn�s entire offense has managed only 11. So much for troubles adjusting to life in the SEC with a young quarterback.
�For a freshman to be as productive as he is and do what he does is, in this league, pretty incredible,� Chizik said.
Added defensive coordinator Brian VanGorder: �He�s a handful because he�s a good athlete that�s creative.�
Manziel is coming off a three-interception performance against LSU, which held him to 276 passing yards and 27 on the ground.
Auburn�s inexperienced defense has struggled in slowing down uptempo offenses. The Tigers have experience that includes facing Oregon in the national title game two years ago. Plus, Chizik is a former Texas defensive coordinator.
�When I was in the Big 12, pretty much all we faced was spread offenses,� Chizik said.
