Special Collections of the state universities of Florida hold significant unique and primary research materials, which as a whole provide a substantial research resource for Florida. The Special Collections Subcommittee (SCS) exists to facilitate collaborative opportunities (with other committees as appropriate) for increasing access to special collections through acquisitions, processing, preservation, and digitization initiatives; strengthen the rare and unique collections that bring distinction to the state university libraries; and provide a common venue for exchanging information and developing shared solutions and best practices for managing special collections held by the State University Libraries of Florida (SUL).
The most important reason for SCS to exist is to increase access to special collections held by SUL. Special collections are increasingly seen as elements of distinction that differentiate an academic or research library from its peers. The ARL has identified the need to provide access to "hidden" special collections as one of the most critical needs of academic and research libraries. When surveyed, the heads of each of the special collections identified their largest barrier to access as lack of resources for processing special collections. The SCS recognizes that digitization is the ideal end-goal to provide full access to special collections. Before special collections can be digitized, however, they must be processed and described (cataloged) in an electronic finding aid. The lack of adequate staffing and funding levels for processing and creating EAD finding aids poses the most significant barrier to potential state-wide digitization projects.

About 3,500 fans made their way into the TD Bank Park Saturday afternoon for Somerset Patriot Fan Fest. The first 500 children received a Patriot baseball and met mascots Sparky and Slider, received autographs from manager and baseball great, Sparky Lyle, and some of his players.
The event included a number of vendors, free face painting and music from Big Chrysler. The concession stands were open and the Patriots sold special season and game ticket packages.
On the field, an 1880's style baseball game played by the Flemington Neshanock and the Elizabeth Resolutes. Played authentically as it was in the period, the teams' wore the flannel uniforms of the period and played by the rules that were established then.

Johan is not nuts. At least not anymore nuts than the rest of us. He is ruled by his own psychology, which includes jealousy that he cannot sing that high.
If you really snap when you see a negative comment, then you're in the wrong place.
This is simply a revenge mission by the US on Libya. This will teach them a lesson for attacking Doc Emmett Brown in Back to the Future....... Damn Libyans

I am also open to other prompts as long as I get to work on my descriptive skills and play with the environment !
I want to make a scary story with a creepy feel to it and am in want of a protagonist to explore this world that I will weave. Your character will be put through death, brought up again and with each times his memories hazy and uncertain. A strange need to be near water will be frequent and distressing vision will plague both their waking and dreaming hours. Explore an abandoned mansion, visit an eerie port town and uncover the mysteries of Hangman's Harbor. Do you have the nerves to uncover it all to the light of day? After all, the most dangerous endeavor may not be to uncover the outside, but may as well be the discovery of the self...
You will have to be willing to shared your thoughts about the plot with me in a OOC and be able to post at least a good paragraph. Someone who would not be afraid to tell me if I suddenly disappear for too long would be great, too! In return I will try to make this adventure as trilling and as interesting as I can and will both listen to what you have to say and will post at least 200 words per post which will be centered in putting some ambiance and plot into our rp. Is anyone interested?
I am also open to other prompts as long as I get to work on my descriptive skills and play with the environment !
Excellent, I'll work on an intro and I'll contact you, then !

Dividing the Linux desktop
LWN.net Weekly Edition for June 13, 2013
A report from pgCon 2013
Yes, the light-weight distribution variants alleviate the problem somewhat, but they really can only change some of the system layers (like the desktop) less resource-intensive. They cannot make OpenOffice.org or Firefox less bloated. Another problem is that these are oddbal variants which are a bit different to use from mainstream distributions, so less sophisticated users will find it harder to get help with them from books or magazines. The use case I have in mind here is a non-geek relative or friend running a virus-infested Windows98 on an old machine... how to linuxify him/her without purchasing new hardware?
Quote [...] Crunchbang, which runs fine in just 200 MB RAM [...]
See the problem here? 200Mb is *huge* if that is needed just to run the OS and basic desktop utilities without undue delays (as opposed to running some application that really puts lots of memory to good use). Circa 1995 I used to run OS/2 Warp on a 75Mhz Pentium with 32MB. It was about as user-friendly as the today's Linux desktops, and did not feel any slower. So just *where* does all that computing power go? I can think of two visible differences between my 1995 desktop and current: 8-bit vs 24-bit colour, and antialiased fonts, but I don't think that comes even close explaining the difference.
The challenge for these older machines is video - many people expect to be able to see Youtube these days. [...]
I have found a 600Mhz P3 to be quite sufficient for decoding standard definition and below, when you use a well-optimized player (Mplayer seems to be the gold standard here), and your display supports the Xvideo extension properly. But HD content clearly goes out of reach. Does piping video around the house with VNC really work? AFAIK its encoding is not optimized for photorealistic video (as opposed to desktop graphics that have large smooth regions), so you will be transmitting and forcing receiver to decode vastly more bytes than with a real video codec.
Software and the environment
Posted Feb 5, 2009 11:21 UTC (Thu) by Cato (subscriber, #7643) [Link]
SliTaz is an even lighter variant that looks promising as well. In all these cases you'll need to help the friend/relative get started, but at least Crunchbang and others provide live CDs and an easy install process - no different to standard Ubuntu in that case.
I'm counting a couple of running apps such as browser and word processor in the memory usage. Crunchbang and SliTaz clearly use way less than 200MB just to start up.
As for video, I found a 700 MHz PIII too slow for Youtube Flash videos, which is the key application for Joe Public. You are probably right about VNC not being optimal for video, but perhaps it would work OK for smaller Youtube-sized videos (not full screen) - I have used SSVNC logged into a remote system showing a webcam view from Skype and it does work over the Internet, using SSH over VNC, but not very well. I'm reasonably sure that smaller videos would work fine over 802.11g WiFi, but not SD or HD TV of course.
Posted Feb 5, 2009 12:25 UTC (Thu) by eru (subscriber, #2753) [Link]
Odd. I recall having success with Flash with an old machine of about that speed (I don't have access to it right now so cannot check). Video playback is really sensitive to having a correct X11 setup: even a faster processor cannot play video smoothly, if it has to update the screen in the generic way, instead of the Xvideo. The display bit depth may also matter.

GM Neal Huntington is happy with weekend performances
Depsite losing 2-of-3 from the Reds, General Manager Neil Huntington is pleased with their performances and what they have seen this weekend.
"We've battled back against some playoff-caliber teams," Huntington said. "It's a great sign. We're continuing to fight and compete. Cincinnati is fighting for its playoff lives. It's a test for our young players."
Huntington is also very happy with the performance from the young bucs.
"What's exciting is that it's [Andrew] McCutchen, it's [Jose] Tabata, it's [Neil] Walker," he said. "It's guys who are going to be important pieces for us going forward."
The most important thing though, is for the young team to learn how to win.
"At the same time, we have to play the game the right way," Huntington said. "We've got to have the foundation in fundamentals. As always, we'll look at various places where we can upgrade. We have to be smart about how we use our resources. We can't just throw [millions of dollars] at somebody just to make ourselves feel good."

DeBono Socity members are forming a Group Think Program that is available for hire to solve problems.
This program is made available through mobile as well as dedicated web site, designed to enable potential customers to easily interact with the group.
The group when it is hired, go on and utilizes its wide and deep reaching skills to solve the problem(s) for we are hired to do and reap the benefits.
Who is interested to enter this concept program development without CAF?
(Only Green, Yellow, White and Blue Hat thoughts needed. Black and Red Hats would not serve the development of this concept program, would it? Since this is only a CONCEPT development, any and all negative view is counterproductive use of time and resources. Do I see it correctly? )
Sounds a good plan.
Luis suggested to search the local archives here at DBS and see Dr. DeBono's work on this central topic.
This is a valid, very reasonable path we (members interested to develop the concept on hand) we should and probably will take. (Time factor)
Parallel to this direction the 33 videos I found one of which is I am going to start with:
Harnessing the Global Talent Pool to Accelerate Innovation
To spread the work load, we could coordinate who does what part of the research and have a periodic "Show and Tell".via group Skype session. My preferred media is: YouTube so I continue my discoveries about InnoCentive there. If you wish to hear/share your finding of the day, you can find me on Skype: zsolt.zsofka (just mention DBS in your friend request)
Posting findings here remains the main option of course but the human ingredients of nurturing an idea calls for going beyond the manipulation of bits and bytes on this digital canvas. -just a thought- ;-)
Pays to Have Ideas!
I know, according to Asa's suggestion I should be exercising silence but... this post is for those who are on the sideline:
I go back now and continue reviewing the 33 vlogs InnoCentive has on YouTube and make my report in a week.

Despite facing a budgetary "hollow tree" that fell last year, damaging the county's financial house, DeKalb County CEO Burrell Ellis said the state of the county is "strong."
"Through hard work, decisive action and collaborative effort, we were able to hoist the tree, repair the damage, restore credit and save the house," said Ellis on Jan. 5 during his annual State of the County address before county business leaders.
"Today the house stands strong and the state of DeKalb County is good," Ellis said.
In his address, Ellis said DeKalb is threatened by those who support the cityhood movement and would "exploit our rich diversity in an effort to divide our county."
"It is a fundamental right for our citizens to choose more government and pay a premium for heightened levels of service, but it is wrong to impact others who have no voice," Ellis said.
Cityhood "places an undue tax burden on those who are drawn outside of arbitrarily created boundaries and have no say in the process," Ellis said.
Better policy is needed to stop the movement's "social isolation, class and ethnic stratification."
"We need laws that prevent the cherry-picking of the choicest residential and commercial areas, while disenfranchising residents in the remainder of the county," Ellis said. "We need laws which respect the costs of services to our citizens in both cities and counties."
Ellis said the proposed penny sales tax referendum that goes to voters this year is an opportunity for the DeKalb to get a "great return on our investment…given DeKalb County's 40-year support of the MARTA tax."
"This is a regional stimulus plan, and that's why it is so important that we pass this transportation referendum," Ellis said. "We have much at stake in the transportation referendum."
To help pass the referendum and to help re-elect President Barack Obama, Ellis said he would "visit every corner in this county to discuss the importance of voting and registering new voters."

Known for auto cargo containers, Thule has branched out into the luggage industry with the Thule Crossover collection. Thule provides a thoughtfully designed collection of travel gear that extends beyond your vehicle - to planes, trains, taxis, and boats - supporting your active lifestyle no matter where you go.
We were very impressed with the design, durability, and function of each of the Thule Crossover bags. The use of V-channel tubing allows for a more durable handle system that is lightweight, which is important with the current airline weight restrictions. The wheels are larger than most and are extremely smooth and tough!
As one of the most popular pieces of Thule Crossover luggage, the Thule Crossover 38 Liter Rolling Carry-On has some very impressive features that should not go unnoticed. We like the Hide-away backpack straps that allow for quick and easy shouldering of this carry-on roller, and the fact that the wheels face away from body when roller is used as a backpack. Allowing for a clean, comfortable carrying experience.

Unverified Voracity Says Obvious Thing
Saginaw Valley exhibition things. Highlights:
The UMHoops recap notes that it was an immensely slow 54 possession game, making Michigan's PPP pretty freaking good: 1.4.
All due caveats apply to the below bullets.
- Trey Burke is good at basketball.
- Tim Hardaway Jr continued what looks like a concerted effort to become a more complete player with another half-dozen assists. He's being a lot more judicious with his shots—just five in 26 minutes. If that carries over to the regular season his ORtg will rise considerably and Michigan's offensive efficiency will rise with it. I did catch one of those contested long twos that give me twitches.
- Glenn Robinson was 3 of 5 from three with the two misses coming off the inside of the rim IIRC. If he can maintain a replacement three-point shooting percentage (33% or so) that clears up any concerns about where Michigan is going to get its rain of threes from. In this game over half of Michigan's shots were from deep and M hit at a 41% clip.
- Nick Stauskas is now 6 of 11 from three after the two exhibition games and he had an impressive take to the basket. Defense needs work etc.
- Mitch McGary is going to be one of those little things guys from day one: rebounds, hard hedges on screens, moving around on offense to open things up for other guys. He seems selfless out there. Doesn't care he's not starting, doesn't demand the ball, just goes out there and tries to win. Also sometimes he steals the ball and throws it down impressively. When he's healthy == Lebron, except bouncy.
/fredjackson'd - The Caris LeVert redshirt debate seems like it will end with a redshirt. With Albrecht and Stauskas coming off the bench plus compressed minutes at the three with Robinson sliding down there from time to time, LeVert would probably end up getting scant minutes anyway, and he hasn't demanded playing time with his exhibition minutes.
I'm excited about the passing—Stauskas, Robinson, and McGary have all made at least one nice assist in the two exhibitions to go with the Albrecht/Burke/Hardaway shot generation axis. They've got a versatile, large, skilled lineup. They will be good at basketball.
[photo HT: UMHoops/Dustin Johnston]
Horford to return. He should get some minutes Friday against Slippery Rock:
"I think he's full-go," Beilein said after Michigan's 76-48 exhibition win over Saginaw Valley State. "Our expectation is that he'll be in the lineup at some point -- he'll probably be rusty -- but at some point Friday."
I was going to say something negative about scheduling what's effectively another exhibition that somehow counts but then I remembered that if you're going to play a team that can't beat you it's better if they're not D-I because it won't drag down your RPI.
Not on board. Not to skip over what promises to be a thrilling and rewarding season, but Michigan's going to have an interesting time when it comes to the early draft entry window. Trey Burke, presumed gone, is still not any taller and checks in 30th on Jeff Goodman's inaugural 2013 Big Board:
Burke isn't physically imposing, but he can shoot and also excels in a ball-screen offense.
Glenn Robinson III, Mitch McGary, Hardaway, and Dennis Norfleet do not appear, nor do any of them appear on the most recent edition of NBAdraft.net's 2013 mock. GRIII is currently a lottery pick in 2014, though, so he is obviously a threat to move that timetable up. Hardaway is currently projected to be a second-rounder after a full four years. Chad Ford, meanwhile, has Burke 54th(!), McGary 65th, Hardaway 73rd, and Robinson 91st. I'm guessing that changes radically around midseason.
Michigan actually needs an early departure to fit their three-man 2013 class in. More than that and they could add another guy, but I'm guessing they'd just roll with what they have.
You may see this again. Via The MZone]:
Looks shopped to me—Ryan's arms are larger than that.
This again, with feeling. Many, many twitter wags piped up that Gardner's performance against Minnesota would start up the Gardner redshirt debate/fretting/confusion again, and lo twitter wags collect your prize:
"I've always been told the process was after the eligibility," Hoke said. "But I don't know if that is completely correct."
Turns out what Hoke had been told is not entirely accurate.
Michigan could have applied for the waiver at any point after Gardner's freshman season and there is no statute of limitations on when the school can file for the waiver.
"Institutions do not have to wait until after a student-athlete's true senior year, but rather, may submit a request as early as the end of the season in which the injury or illness occurs," Big Ten associate director of compliance Kerry Kenny said in an email on Monday. "Although we establish deadlines as to when an institution can submit a waiver request for the purposes of the bi-weekly review schedule, we leave the decision about when during a student-athlete's career to submit a medical hardship waiver up to institutional discretion."
Hoke said Monday that the school has not yet applied for Gardner's waiver.
Apparently it's the conference, not the NCAA, that decides these things. I'd assume Michigan applies for it after this season so they can plan for having him or not in 2014.
OL changes? They have been hinted at:
"Yeah, I am," he said. "I think we had some protection breakdowns that we can't have last week -- that we haven't had, to some degree. I think us moving the line of scrimmage (is an issue).
"We got to do a better job at the point of attack."
Hoke said he has considered making personnel changes to the line, including inserting Joey Burzynski or Jack Miller, but has held off because the current group also has had nice moments.
I know that the coaches have been high on Miller and his nasty disposition for a while now. He's listed at 288; while that's somewhat light it's not like he's 270. He's also been a center for over a year now, which is more than either Barnum or Mealer can say. I'd guess they give him a drive or two the next couple weeks to see if that helps things.
Hatch back on the court. Conditionally, anyway:
Austin Hatch has been conditionally released by his medical team to begin practicing with the Canterbury High School basketball program. The first official practice is today, however, Austin is limited to the types of drills he can participate in at this time. Although everyone is encouraged by the progress he continues to make, Austin and his family ask that you do not approach him for interviews at this time.
He has reclassified to 2014 already. The most likely outcome is that Michigan takes him and puts him on a medical scholarship, but he's got a couple years yet to recover fully.
Angry Michigan Defenseman Hating God progressing towards sated. Michigan had a rough weekend in Marquette, barely squeaking out a tie in game one and losing 4-3 in game two with Jacob Trouba sitting out for what sounds like a devastating hit on Wildcat Reed Seckel. Michigan had to ice Jeff Rohrkemper on D.
Michigan should be getting towards healthy this weekend in a home and home against State. Trouba won't see his suspension extended and Brennan Serville may return after missing the NMU series with a concussion. Emphasis on "may":
Sophomore defenseman Brennan Serville, who suffered what Berenson called a "facial concussion" against Miami (Ohio), should be back for this weekend's series against Michigan State, according to Berenson.
Berenson said before the defense can live up to its high preseason expectations, there need to be enough healthy bodies.
"We've got to get everybody healthy, number one," Berenson said. "And then start jelling like we thought we would. Hopefully Serville's back."
No word yet on John Merrill's potential return.
Lewan quote of the week. It's a goodun:
"I've never focused on scores my whole life," Michigan offensive tackle Taylor Lewan said. "In high school we played in a state championship game, we were getting killed and I had no idea. It was the fourth quarter and I was like 'guys, we got this, we got this.'
"Then I look up and it's 38-0, and I'm like 'alright, I guess we don't got this.' I've never been one to watch scores."

Containment Field Down! Run For Your Lives!
10/27/2012 – Michigan 9, Nebraska 23 – 5-3, 3-1 Big Ten
Eric Upchurch
Well, it finally happened.
Pundits and opponent fans have been predicting the demise of Denard Robinson ever since he picked up that snap against Western Michigan, but the series of bumps and bruises that frightened Michigan fans every third game had never really cost Michigan anything. In 2010, Tate Forcier came off the bench to lead Michigan to a frenetic victory over Illinois and nearly did the same against Iowa. Last year, Devin Gardner shepherded Michigan through the second half of the Illinois game. When Denard's boo-boos knocked him out for halves instead of plays, Michigan got through just fine.
They were always tempting fate, though, and upped their bet that the football gods' vast malevolence was laser-focused on the Iowa running back situation by moving Devin Gardner to wide receiver in the fall. That seemed like a risk worth taking.
Unfortunately, the containment field is down.
yes, it's true. this man has no elbow.
First it leaked from the Iowa running backs to their offensive line, which suffered two season-ending injuries minutes apart last week. This week, the Big Ten set to murdering football in the morning and afternoon, then this happened to Marcus Lattimore's knee:
artist's conception
By the time Friday night rolled around the ambient malevolence levels in college football were so high that Notre Dame won a marquee matchup to enter the national championship shortlist.
So of course Denard would be knocked out of a potentially fun, definitely important game by falling harmlessly to the turf, thus turning the rest of it into a death-march trudge. AIRBHG is no longer contained. The forces of wheeeee that (mostly) preserved Denard through three years of running at top speed into Manti Te'o have been overrun by the forces of grinding doom football. Now we're all boned. Hail Saban.
And so it came to pass that words never before spoken—words so impossible CFL teams who don't even think it's weird they're all named "Roughriders" cock an eyebrow at their assemblage—came to pass.
Tate Forcier isn't walking through that door.
I don't know, man. I felt ill for most of the second half but it's not like anyone is at fault other than everyone. I mean, if RR doesn't implode or Forcier is a normal person who goes to classes or Michigan doesn't hire Hoke three weeks before signing day, maybe the guy backing up Robinson has a prayer of moving the ball forward. Maybe the wide receiving corps is not so awful that it must include Devin Gardner.
In the aftermath you've got the columns declaring Gardner's move to WR a stupid idea, but I haven't seen anyone reference the column questioning it they wrote before last weekend. It's easy to be a backseat driver after whatever that was. Meanwhile, Gardner is this crappy receiving corps' #2 WR, #1 if you discount Jeremy Gallon's 150-some yards on screens.
Gardner's not good. The alternative is throwing more than four balls in the first half to Jeremy Jackson. They've needed their crappy, crappy receiver who is also a quarterback even if he is dropping a 50-yard pass in most games. Whether Gardner is worth an extra three scores against Nebraska is… debatable. His performances to date suggest he is not.
Michigan was always rolling the dice on Denard's health, and that was the move to make. Didn't work. That's life as a rickety program that's endured two coaching transitions in three years—when you have to go to the bench you get tumbleweeds.
We're now entering the period of time when most program shortcomings can be blamed on Rich Rodriguez's recruiting, which is only a slight transition from the period of time when most program shortcomings could be blamed on Lloyd Carr's recruiting fade and represents very little improvement when the one completely awesome guy at the most important position is removed from the equation. It turns out that Michigan 2012 minus Denard Robinson is pretty much Michigan 2008, and that the only thing saving us from the abyss was Denard staring down a decision to stay or go and not pulling the Mallett.
He stayed, but in the game that probably decided if he would be a champion or not he watched from the sideline because his elbow hit the turf the wrong way. Malevolence is out of control these days.
Eric just posted the photos. You can enjoy them. You will not enjoy One Frame At A Time. BTN highlights:
Also SD highlights from Michigan's official site and a Nebraska-oriented highlight reel; actual highlights start 3:20 in.
Injury item. So the thing is this:
It's the same thing that knocked him out briefly against Illinois.
"He's got that nerve (injury), he hits it the wrong way (or) gets hit (and it's hard)," Hoke said. "The difference (today) was he didn't come back in. But, he gets better as the game goes on." …
Asked whether or not he was concerned Robinson wouldn't be available next week, Hoke replied "No." He also said the normal rehabilitation process for this type of injury is mainly rest and time.
He'll probably be fine by Tuesday and start against Gophers. Every time his elbow brushes up against the softest kitten in Minnesota the collective intake of breath will be audible. Sounds fun, and by "fun" I mean "paralyzing."
Frank Clark is also expected to be back next week, which is good because Mario Ojemudia limped off the field Saturday and was spotted in a boot today. He's probably sprained his ankle and won't be available.
Brady Hoke Epic Double Point Of The Week. Craig Roh. Beastmode sack, generally unblockable, got a number of those stat things for himself instead of everyone else, as he usually does.
Honorable mention. Quinton Washington, Desmond Morgan, Kenny Demens.
Epic Double Point standings.
3: Jake Ryan (ND, Purdue, Illinois)
2: Denard Robinson (Air Force, UMass)
1: Jeremy Gallon(Alabama), Drew Dileo (Michigan State), Craig Roh(Nebraska).
We won time of possession! WOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Time of possession is a garbage stat.
That said, there is a clear narrative of decline in the defensive performance. Nebraska's first eight drives gained a total of 148 yards. Their last four gained 178. It's not easy going out there after a blizzard of three-and-outs. This would be better measured by plays instead of TOP.
BLAME BLAME BLAME BLAME. Why are we here at QB? LET'S BLAME PEOPLE WOO
- Rodriguez's horrible recruiting at the skill positions: 40%. If Michigan has a decent deep threat at WR, Gardner is playing QB and Michigan may salvage that game. Instead, RR recruited receivers are… 2011: nobody. 2010: Jeremy Jackson, Ricardo Miller, Jerald Robinson, DJ Williamson. 2009: Je'Ron Stokes. The only one of those guys to see the field is Jackson, and he's essentially a skinny tight end. That 2011 class may not be RR's fault, because there were…
- Unavoidable transition costs: 10%. RR's WR recruiting would look slightly better if Sammy Watkins was included in that group, but once he got fired Watkins was gone.
- Darryl Stonum's inability to just do what the court tells him to: 10%. Relevant to previous two bullets: we're desperate for a guy who has three catches for Baylor. Baylor's offense is pretty good, but he can't even get on the field.
- The Process: 20%. Maybe Michigan gets a guy more ready to play if they're not scrambling with three weeks left. Maybe Michigan recruits one dang WR in 2011.
- Hoke not taking a quarterback last year: 10%. Always take one every year. If Michigan has another freshman around maybe he's better than Bellomy.
- Hoke inexplicably passing on Devin Lucien: 10%. Lucien has 10 catches as a sophomore for 6-2 UCLA and their #12 offense. He still wanted to commit to Michigan after the transition, and Michigan said no by saying they wanted him to play DB.
There. It has been blamed. Seriously, though, the Lucien thing drives me nuts.
Borges take. It's official, we have the first FIRE BORGES blog post, one made through blood-soaked tears in the third quarter of that game by The Big House Blog. The Daily is also getting testy.
I'm not there. As soon as Denard went out and it became clear that Bellomy was light years away from readiness I was pretty much like whatever. There's not much you can do when you already can't run without your QB and the guy you put in is overwhelmed and throwing moonballs.
Before that happened, Michigan was moving the ball decently and poised to score to go up 10-7. That's okay I guess—but we're also talking about a team that is 90th in the country in run defense, so…
I saw this: after Nebraska got torn up by Hundley and Miller it seemed clear they went back to the drawing board and were going to play it safe. When Michigan put 4 WRs on the field, Nebraska responded with two high safeties and 5.5 guys in the box. Michigan ran the ball and got five, six, seven yards virtually every time. That's stealing.
I mean, when I was learning about the spread some years back I watched the videos Rodriguez put out about his offense. When he talked about making a run/pass decision based on the safeties, his general rule was one deep safety was a run, cover zero was pass. The idea that someone would maintain two high safeties against his offense never even crossed his mind. Nebraska was doing it, and Michigan didn't force Nebraska out of it. I don't get it, man.
The truly crappy thing is it's going to be four or five years before we have any real read on whether Borges is any good. At this point, year three is going to be Michigan rolling with a true freshman QB—probably, anyway—and four new OL starters—probably, anyway—with what's likely to be a horrible WR corps. Anything other than an awful offense next year is a point in Borges's favor. Hurrah transition.
But Auburn? No. 2004 Auburn had the following guys on that team: QB Jason Campbell (first round pick), RB Ronnie Brown (first round pick), RB Cadillac Williams (first round pick), OL Ben Grubbs (first round pick), OL Marcus McNeill (second round pick), Ben Obomanu (seventh round pick, still in league, had 37 catches in 2011), Devin Aromashodu (seventh round pick, still in league, had 26 catches in 2011), and Courtney Taylor (sixth round pick, now in CFL after 2008 multiple sclerosis(!) diagnosis). When you can call anything and have future NFL players on both ends of the exchange that doesn't say much either.
First Nebraska touchdown: where is that? Nebraska's first touchdown was a route that exploited Michigan's man coverage. An inside receiver ran a little hitch designed to pick the outside guy, the outside guy ran a post to eliminate the safety over the top, and the inside-inside guy used the pick to get open by yards. It didn't really matter if the receiver who ended up targeted was able to get separation naturally; the play got it for him.
Where is that from Michigan? I can't recall a wide open downfield guy that got open strictly by the play design. Gardner's been open some when DBs fall over or suck up on a double move or something; not so much the play bits.
This wasn't actually a problem last year, when Michigan quarterbacks made sport of ignoring the the wide open guys Borges was machining downfield. Is it just Junior Hemingway's absence?
I think they watched film. Congratulations, Nebraska: you are apparently the only Big Ten team to ever watch tape of the Michigan offense and leap on the throwback screen. It's not exactly hard to find, since the first time Michigan goes under center in any game is virtually guaranteed to be the throwback. It's pretty bad when everyone in the room I was watching said "throwback screen" as soon as Michigan lined up in ace.
Q: why is that play consistently run from under center? There doesn't seem to be anything about it that would require it to be.
Bellomy. Well… that wasn't very good. The most disturbing thing was probably one of Bellomy's few completions—a ten yard wheel-ish route run by Kerridge that picked up a first down and took just decades to get where it was going. Accuracy issues and a tendency to scream in horror during plays themselves (@ right by Upchurch) can be fixed with time. The arm strength deficiency probably can't.
That particular throw made me wonder why Michigan recruited the guy at all since it seems like the #1 thing on Borges's radar screen is the ability to laser it in just inside the sideline. Hurrah Process/unavoidable transition costs. Boy, is next year's offense going to be a wow experience or what I tell ya.
Offensive line. I'm not entirely sure how they did since once Bellomy came in it was open season and Michigan settled into a routine that exposed them to the same "eight of them, five of us" problems that Michigan experienced against MSU. Hoke was not impressed.
Ryan got edged. When Michigan gave up some yards it was often on the edge when various Nebraska players broke contain. The most spectacular incident was when Abdullah broke Cam Gordon's ankles…
…but it happened to Ryan a few times. When Nebraska was not bouncing it outside they were getting very little; excellent day from the interior DL and the LBs.
Roh beastmode. Also Roh, who took the opportunity presented by Abudullah being assigned to block him to destroy Martinez in a hilarious beastmode sack. If you've ever wondered why tailbacks always cut block guys on pass protection, that's why.
Where is Rawls? I don't know what happened to Toussaint but at this point I'm not even irritated at Vincent Smith carries because it's not like Toussaint is consistently making yards past what the blocking gets him. Meanwhile, Rawls ends up watching, even when Michigan deep into Bellomy panic time and trying to run from under center.
I'm sure there's a reason they don't trust him yet; whatever it is it must be pretty bad. If you're down to running power from the I-form—and Michigan was—you might as well find out if your backup guy can break some tackles.
Defense: stepping towards elite. Nebraska entered the game averaging 512 yards and 42 points a game, leading the league in rushing yardage, pass efficiency, total yardage, and points per game. Michigan held the Cornhuskers to 326 yards and 23 points. Six of those points were field goal drives of two and five yards in length. Without turnovers, that's 17 points.
Relative to the quality of opponent, that's their best performance of the year by far and a major step away from criticisms that Michigan's defense hasn't actually stopped anyone. If the offense doesn't implode with Denard out those numbers are undoubtedly better, probably under 300 yards for the game for the Huskers.
Not relevant but worth it. This happened after Northwestern's win over Iowa:
Bo Cisek, walk-on DT and new internet legend
It speaks for itself except for the fact that guy's wearing #1.
Michigan + Nebraska == refereeing atrocity. The Roundtree catch that was overturned was one of those plays where it's not clear either way because of the goofy fuzzy catch rule and should be left to stand, and then you've got that terrible terrible late hit call and some terrible terrible pass interference calls both ways. This combination of teams is not good for ref sanity.
Cats! So hey like if you follow me on twitter I'm sort of sorry for retweeting like 30 cats into your timeline except not really. People started sending them to me, so clearly there was a need. Here is another cat if you are not satiated.
* As bad as we played, the first downs were close, 20-18 in favor of Nebraska. Of course, 6 of our first downs came from Nebraska penalties.
* Nebraska's 20 1st downs translated to 326 total yards, we managed 188 total yards. At least we were efficient with our first downs. Why get 20 or 30 yards when you only need 10?
* We won the TOP, 31:36 to 28:24. Yippee. We did control the clock early, and I was expecting that to pay off in the fourth quarter when we should have been able to grind down their defense, but then, you know, Denard got hurt.
Edit: I forgot the main silver lining, BELLOMY CAN AUDIBLE!
Yeah, what was with that?
Yeoman scans Massey, comes back with Michigan having a 30% shot at winning the division now. Let's go Spartans.
Blog stuff. Sap's decals hand out nothing to the offense. Nebraska fans are far too enthusiastic about snuffing Bellomy out. TTB. Maize and Go Blue. The M Block considers what happens next year at QB.
Duct tape. It's was held together with duct tape, hope, and rolling dice. And now the questions will come for the coaching staff, although any questions to Greg Mattison will likely consist of "Why can't you guys score too?" But we caught a glimpse of a future we will need to face all too soon, a future without Denard Robinson. That future consisted of three field goals total output on offense.
You watched the second half perhaps with some hope that Spring Game Bellomy would emerge but save for a few late first downs it wasn't really even close. I swear I caught Jeremy Gallon staring off into space after the RS freshman was calling a pass play early in the second half and remember thinking, "Gallon knows this ain't happening…"
That play was the horribly underthrown toss (yes, headed for Gallon!) which was easily picked off by Nebraska.
Also, Denard's jacket was old school split M style now verboten.
Probably got it off Jon Falk's back.
Regular stuff. CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS. AGGRESSIVE DECISION TO FALL ON HIS ELBOW GENTLY COSTS DENARD ROBINSON. RUSSELL BELLOMY MAY NOT HAVE DONE TOO WELL. ROBINSON'S EXIT REVEALS THAT MICHIGAN IS NOT GOOD AT ANYTHING AND SHOULD PROBABLY JUST DIE. RUSSELL BELLOMY WAS NEVER GETTING PULLED.
Stupid malevolence. Stupid offense.
Wait they're still saying this?
Three Bellomy interceptions rushed the defense back onto the field and into quick-change situations. Nebraska started drives in Michigan territory, including one on the four-yard line. There's a good excuse.
"No," Kovacs said. "We take pride in that. Our motto is: 'Spot the ball.' It doesn't matter where the ball's at, just put the ball on the field and we're going to go play defense and not let them get any yards."
That's a Rodriguez-era phrase that remains as mysterious today as it was when it was introduced and probably should have gone in the bonfire with GERG's playbooks and stuffed beavers and hair. I guess that's appropriate for the reappearance of the 2008 offense. If someone says "hold the rope" any time soon I'm going to hide under the bed.

Dear Diary is Winning at Ticket Quest
Given the weak home schedule this year, I planned on creating a new feature on the site to detail my exploits in obtaining seats for every home game (by methods available to the hoi polloi) without ever paying a forced donation. Rule was I had to get two people into each game and sitting next to each other. Then I didn't bother for awhile because it would've been a lot of dividing by zero. To wit:
Air Force: I couldn't attend so I sent a correspondent, who then accepted a free ticket from somebody.
UMass: Offered one guy near the northeast entrance $10 each for his tickets and another guy interjected with two free ones.
Illinois: Family friend offered me a pair of his earlier in the week, then the day of the game both my designated game buddy (Misopogal) and the couple who owned the tickets decided it wasn't worth sitting in a rainstorm for this edition of Illinois, so I rolled solo with 4 tickets. I traded one to a student for his student ticket and 5 bucks 'cause the kid needed to get his buddy in, and sold the other two extras for $10 each outside the Stadium-Main entrance. I think I gave the student ticket away. Total: –$25.00
MSU: Bought two Row 11s from our new affiliate on Friday for $129 each plus $14 to have them FedEx'ed overnight (cheapest seat on Stubhub was $20 higher at the time even before their fees). Corner, but our endzone got most of the action.
Remaining home games are Iowa and Northwestern, and I'm at net $111. Guys, I think this is working.
The Thing About Purdue. In other useful though tardy things, the blogger formerly known as Blue Seoul (now ttifiblog) brought back the formerly weekly Game Wrap With Pics post for Purdue. Don't remember what that looks like? Like this:

Denard Watch. As he climbs toward the big career marks, let's look back on some of the milestones already passed along this trail of hobbled safeties, heaving linebackers, flying shoes, sanctified endzones, flappitty laces, askew helmets, smile-curved mouthguards, and soaring dreads.

Kugler and some guys we're looking at. Everyone's looking for the next 2013 recruit with consensus 4 stars to start moving up boards, and Patrick Kugler's one of those dues. A couple of helpful readers got a scouting report on his recent game, plus those of three prospects.

Dear Diary Predicts the Past, Part II
Michigan's defensive backfield, 1879-2006 RIP – Upper left: Box Safety; Upper right: Free Safety; Upper middle: Dime; Lower left: Shortside CB; Lower Center: Nickel/Spur; Lower Right: Wideside CB.
"Every setback is a setup for bad cornerbacks."
---Anonymous, as amended after watching Michigan for a few years.
Dear Diary,
Since you all failed so miserably at convincing me not to do a follow-up for the defense, here is Part II of my Predicting the Past series, where we measure optimistic expectations during the summer against cold hard reality, which hates us. With defense it's going to be less useful – if Hoke and Mattison are as blitheringly incompetent defensively as their predecessors then there's no point to anything anymore – so I'll spare some of the detail.
Either way, we are foraying into the defense of 2007-2010, so this is going to get very ugly very quickly. Some of you in the comments thought that last week's tale of offensive destruction and redemption was depressing. Well if that's depressing, this is going to be more like the kind of torture that requires a large white room and lots of sharp-looking instruments. You will be stabbed, axed, shot, cut into a million tiny pieces, and those will be stomped on. Then we'll do the linebackers.
Let's just get the agonizing part over with.
Defensive Backs:
Inevitable, no. But as of June 2007, we were well on our way.
Depth Charts:
- Cornerback: Morgan Trent (Jr/Sr), Johnny Sears (So/Jr), Donovan Warren (Fr/Fr), Doug Dutch (Jr/Sr), Troy Woolfolk (Fr/Fr), James Rogers (Fr/Fr), Anton Campbell (Sr/5th)
- Nickel: Brandon Harrison (Jr/Jr)
- Safety: Jamar Adams (Sr/Sr), Stevie Brown (So/So), Brandent Englemon (Sr/5th), Charles Stewart (Jr/Sr), Artis Chambers (Fr/Fr), Michael Williams (Fr/Fr)
Incoming: Boubacar Cissoko, Brandon Smith
Expected: I skipped NCAA 2007 and '08, mostly because I loved the cover of '06, so I don't know how they (over-) rated our DBs. I do very much remember trying to keep the rosters of my dynasty kind of accurate as the years progressed, but by '07 feeling really stupid when re-naming and re-sizing a 5-star recruit to Stevie Brown. Yes, Virginia, in June 2007 we knew we were in trouble. Not so much trouble that we freaked about losing Chris Richards to the St. Patrick's Day Nerd Massacre, but such that the need for talent and bodies at these positions was the main theme of MGoBlog recruiting boards in 2006 and 2007.
More after the jump
Exit Ray Vinopal
This rumor had been bouncing around the internet for long enough that it was hardly a rumor anymore, but Hoke has just confirmed it and now it's really not a rumor:
Hoke on Vinopal: "Ray decided to go back Youngstown. That issue's more a family issue."
Michigan loses both a two-star recruit no one expected would ever play and a guy who started half his freshman season, which says all you need to about last year's secondary. The free safety spot is manned by… uh… definitely somebody. I think we can safely assert Michigan will put eleven players on the field this fall. That's all we know. Since the depth chart by class has exactly one other body at the spot, that true freshman Minnesota decommit Tamani Carter, it's safe to say the eventual starter is kind of up in the air.
Unverified Voracity Fills The Flag
Newsbits of importance from Tom. Dark I'm-not-saying-I'm-just-saying rumors about Craig Roh and Demetrius Hart have been flying around the internets this week. Tom clarifies. On Craig Roh:
My source told me that Craig has been concerned with his position switch to linebacker, and believes he is much more effective as a defensive end.
Craig actually vocalized his concern about his position to the coaches after the Penn State game, and my source says that he has been playing much more on the defensive line during practice this week.
Roh's apparently been handed to Bruce Tall and will no longer be mostly a linebacker. This is both good and another instance of players coaching themselves. Meanwhile, Demetrius Hart decommit rumors are false:
There was a slight mix up with Demetrius' enrollment with Michigan, but it has been cleared up. That was the issue, it wasn't that anyone was recruiting him harder, or anything along those lines. Everything has been straightened out, and his mom says Demetrius will be at Michigan in January.
Insert the usual CYA boilerplate about how anything can happen, but you can focus your panic elsewhere.
Crowded. JT Floyd is officially out for the year with "freak" ligament damage in his ankle. Hooray.
The Never Forget banner guy has updated it, and if any further members of the secondary wish to make themselves unavailable they'd advised to do it quickly because we're running out of room:
New additions are Michael Williams (concussions), JT Floyd (ligament damage), Jared Van Slyke (leg injury), and Vlad Emilien (transfer). Available locations are limited to that patch of maize underneath the crying wolverine. Given the state of the secondary this is getting considerably more RR-fault-ridden as the year goes along. Justin Turner and Vlad Emilien's transfers are big deals with the free safety depth chart reading "Ray Vinopal" and the corner depth chart reading "Random Three Star Freshman Projects and James Rogers."
At least the Floyd injury has been a productive one for the legions of Michigan photoshoppers:
So we've got that going for us. Courtney Avery will draw into the lineup for Floyd.
Okay, a final final final word or two. It's unfortunate that Anchorman references are vastly overused because sometimes there's nothing you can say except…
…I'm not even mad, I'm impressed. That is amazing. I'm sitting on this pile of ninja corpses, covered in blood. As the sun rises over a scene of indescribable gore I laugh, because what else is there to do?
Probably not in the special section about how naughty Michigan's been:
the committee wrote that "though serious," the overage was "far less extensive than originally reported and that no student-athletes were substantially harmed."
Though this was obvious as soon as the smoke cleared last August because the piece was so shoddily written, it is now official. Hurrah for pyrrhic victories.
Watch this. The House Rock Built's "Stuffing The Passer" series is the best thing going in the CFB blogosphere right now:
If "Shit My Dad Says" is being made into a sitcom, Stuffing The Passer can't be far behind.
Elsewhere in coach grumbling. You've probably seen this but Brandon Graham has some depressing quotes that point towards the Those Meddling Kids theory:
I'm surprised they didn't stick with what Coach Robinson was running," Graham said of the 3-4 the team deployed in 2009, its first year under Robinson. … "Let Coach Robinson play his defense," Graham said. "Let him do what he knows. He was thrown off, I would say. I know the 3-3-5 is what he (Rodriguez) has been doing for so long. He's just got to adjust to the Big Ten."
Michigan ran a 4-3 under last year but that's beside the point. Those quotes from a guy who was in the program last year indicate that no one who doesn't know a 3-3-5 like the back of his hand is ever going to be comfortable as a defensive coordinator at Michigan as long as the WVU guys are around saying things like "hey it's a bye week, I've got this great idea."
While everyone says "scheme is overrated," Michigan's offense puts the lie to that. It's not necessarily the 3-3-5 itself—this is not a BLANK can't work in the Big Ten argument—but attempting to run an exotic niche defense with a guy who doesn't know it (and evidence suggests is a terrible coach anyway).
I'm pretty sure this is as close as we'll get to an opinion from Angelique Chengelis, if that's actually what it is:
Hope for next year?
Much has been made about Michigan's defense, which is near the bottom of several national categories, including total defense. Illinois was in a similar spot last year, but has made strides under new defensive coordinator Vic Koenning:
Scoring defense: 30.2 (96th) in 2009, 16.8 (12th) in 2010
Total defense: 403.3 (91st) in 2009, 301.4 (15th) in 2010
Pass defense: 248.8 (100th) in 2009, 183.9 (19th) in 2010
Rush defense: 154.4 (76th) in 2009, 117.5 (26th) in 2010
That certainly reads like a "hint, hint."
Defensive antidote. Via Wolverine Historian:
Penn State jerkos. As an internet fanbase, Penn State has a remarkable knack for accusing others of pathologies they're displaying literally within the accusation itself. The latest example is a piece at Black Shoe Diaries the author probably thinks is Swiftian satire that takes a sentence from the game recap, some random comment I don't recognize and didn't make about the Terrence Talbott whiffed PBU that turned into 40 yards, a somewhat maudlin paragraph from Maize and Brew supporting Rodriguez, and a random quote from pissed off David Molk. It combines these to show how self-centered Michigan fans are… in a post whining that Michigan fans didn't give Penn State its proper respect.
BSD can talk about self-centered behavior when they do this:
Indiana has a legitimately very good pass offense. They had 41 opportunities to make catches and made 40. Chappell almost never went to the wrong guy and missed on maybe five of his 65 attempts. Their receivers are tall and fast and shifty. One dollar they're the most productive pass offense in the conference at the end of the year.
And this:
Michigan State has somehow acquired the without-question best stable of tailbacks in the league; Iowa's Adam Robinson isn't bad but he's not the equivalent of Baker/Bell/Caper, and there's only one of him.
Indiana imploded and Michigan State's run game is pretty mediocre. We tried the credit-the-opponent bit and then all of the opponents turned out to be much worse on offense than Michigan made them look. Doing it now against your gritty moxie ginger neckbeard quarterback would be delusional. Penn State sucks and Michigan is worse. But I said Ogbu is a beast, so your pathetic insecurities can be a tiny bit less pathetic. Let's hold hands.
Now go talk about how arrogant we are as you caress each other's soft places while whispering "what if Michigan never comes back" and we discuss whether we should keep Rich Rodriguez and worry about falling into a Notre Dame-like fallow period. Tim was right to describe BSD as a place utterly incapable of recognizing irony.
Etc.: Craig Roh's eyebrows, and the rest of Craig Roh, are attractive to some guy who ranks him the #13 "hottie" of the year in CFB. Yost Built has ten things to know about Alaska. Amani Toomer is running marathons now.

The restaurant says it's just getting ready for summer.
"The General was closed due to a permitting issue. We expect to resolve this as soon as possible."
Franny's 2.0 may be open as soon as April 8.
That doesn't sound like the best scene.
Look for a reopening "by the time it's warm out."
The restaurant will reopen next month, possibly with a new, "well-known" partner.
Mark Iacano says he's headed to Florida to get some sun — and to see about the pizza shop he plans to open in Miami.
The fondue and half-price wine are gone, but not for good.
Plus: a pumpkin-carving contest at Ardesia, croissant- and grilled-cheese-focused restaurants, and more of today's Leftovers.
Terrence Brennan's Upper West Side spot was supposed to unveil its renovated self today.
The breakfast room at the Loews Regency Hotel will close for renovations next year.
Plus: a cigar dinner at the Lambs Club, a football-season special at Nicoletta, and more of today's leftovers.
We're told the management company is making major renovations to the building.

Give Your Eyes a Break
October 22, 2012
Most mornings while I wait for the train to NYC, I look down the platform and see a long line of commuters, heads down, looking at their phones. It's 7 a.m. It's no secret that many of us have our phones with us constantly— some of us even sleep with them. The proliferation of handheld devices—smartphones, readers, tablets and those pint-sized PCs—is literally stealing our attention, and so it seems, our eyesight as well.
According to a recent survey by The Vision Council, our reliance on digital technology is having a negative impact on our eyes with one in three adults admitting they are tethered to a digital device for up to six hours per day. The result? A startling 70 percent of the survey's respondents already experience digital eye strain, sometimes resulting in blurred vision and dry eyes, not to mention back, neck and shoulder pain. The study goes on to reveal that only half of those American adults affected by this side effect of "technology" are actually addressing the problem.
This month's Cover Story (see Page 41) focuses on how mobile technology is changing and improving the doctor-patient relationship, from the exam room to the dispensary and the many ways ECPs communicate beyond the office visit. But we may all be missing the forest for the trees when it comes to this modern technology. When do we reach the point when we become too "connected"?
It's a conversation you need to start having with your patients, especially if they come in complaining of headaches or dry eyes. Ask them about their lifestyle and habits starting with how many hours a day they use digital devices. The answer might be to prescribe computer glasses or have them readjust the settings on their screens. Or the solution could be as simple as powering down those devices and taking a well-deserved break.

Gordon Ramsay's Cooking Shows: Different Recipes For Success?
Jun 18th 2013
If you've already listened to this weekend's edition of Fox All Access on the radio, you've heard the sad news: After 18 years, we're signing off the air.
Sure, we wish we could have kept the show going forever, but as the saying goes, all good things must come to an end. So, just like Drs. House and Wilson did when "House" ended, it's time for us to ride off into the sunset, heads held high.
From our days as the Fox Kids Countdown and Fox Family Countdown, to the decade we spent as Fox All Access, this radio show has been much more than just a job to those of us who have worked on it.
It's been our passion.
We hope that's come through in everything we've done, whether it's the radio show, this website, our YouTube videos, or our social media updates.
We leave with tremendous pride in everything we've been able to accomplish in these past 18 years. Producing 938 unique radio shows is no easy task — that's more original episodes than "The Simpsons," "House," and "Bones" combined! And in the last few years, we've also created more than 600 videos, a pretty astonishing number for a group that started with no video experience.
We hope we've left you with plenty of great memories. Maybe it was a really cool interview. Maybe Chris Leary said something that made you laugh. Maybe you heard a really awesome song for the very first time during "You Gotta Hear This!" Maybe you called in and got on the air, and your friends couldn't believe they heard you on the radio. Or maybe you just came to count on us as a familiar friend you could spend time with each weekend.
If you listened to our final show, you heard the entire crew sharing our favorite Fox All Access memories, and now it's your turn. Leave a comment, share a memory, and let us know if we succeeded in our #1 goal: to entertain you with two hours of great radio every weekend.
On behalf of the entire Fox All Access staff, thanks for listening. Keeping a radio show going for 18 years is a pretty spectacular thing in this business, and we couldn't have done it without you.
So again, thanks. We'll miss you.
Seriously? A Miss USA winner hasn't been able to find a man to date?
Believe it or not, it's true!
Miss USA 2010 Rima Fakih, a 26-year-old Lebanese beauty from Michigan, hasn't been able to find Mr. Right on her own, so she's hoping she might be able to change her luck on national TV. This Thursday night, she'll be a contestant on Fox's hit dating show, "The Choice," along with Carmen Electra, Sophie Monk, and model Hope Dworaczyk.
When Fox All Access host Chris Leary got to spend a few minutes backstage at the "American Idol" finale with Rima Fakih, as you'll see in this video, he found out exactly why these beautiful women haven't been able to meet their soulmates yet.
"The Choice" airs Thursday night at 9/8c after "Take Me Out" on Fox.
At the age of 21, Ed Sheeran has already conquered the UK music charts, with a platinum-selling album and a string of four consecutive Top 10 hits.
Now, he's set his sights on America, and he's already won over a lot of fans — including Taylor Swift, who's asked him to help her write songs for her next album!
His first single, "The A Team," has already started to climb the charts — and if you haven't heard it, well, it has absolutely nothing to do with the TV show or movie. It is, however, a powerful, moving song — and if you haven't seen the live rendition he recorded especially for us, you should.
Along with the live session, Ed talked with Fox All Access host Chris Leary about the song and its inspirations, along with plenty of other things, including his beginnings as a musician, his work ethic, and how he landed some prime gigs during his very first visit to Los Angeles.
So take a look at the interview, then check out Ed Sheeran's debut album, "+."
The movie industry has changed a lot over the years. These days, even the biggest movies will have a few good weeks, then fade away as the next big thing hits theaters. In fact, it's been over a decade since any movie spent 10 consecutive weeks in the Top 5 at the box office. One film that stands out from the rest is the 1982 film, "E.T." The accomplishments of E.T. were spectacular – it spent 27 weeks in a row in the Top 5, 16 of those at Number 1. And even though it was released at a time when movie tickets cost less than 3 bucks a piece, it's still number one on the all-time list of top-grossing movies. We could quote its accomplishments all day, but perhaps the biggest is that it's Steven Spielberg's favorite film. (Click on the audio player to hear Steven Spielberg)
Drew Barrymore was just a little girl, only 6 years old, when she made E.T., and she remembers how working with Spielberg changed her life. (Click on the audio player to hear Drew Barrymore)
Today E.T. celebrates its 30th anniversary. So go ahead hop on your bike, turn on your heartlight, and phone home.

Hell's Kitchen is one of the best and beloved reality shows currently on television. The cooking competition over the years has turned out exquisite aspiring chefs who go on to have successful culinary careers. Hell's Kitchen is now in its tenth season, and it looks like it's going to be one of the most intense seasons the show has ever had. The winner of this season's competition will become the head chef at Chef Ramsay's "Gordon Ramsay Steak" at Paris Las Vegas. Chef Ramsay explains that in order to win this season's cooking competition, the contestants must be tenacious and have discipline. (Click on the audio player to hear Gordon Ramsay)
Hell's Kitchen airs Monday and Tuesday nights 8/7 central on FOX.
Along with his run on Saturday Night Live, Adam Sandler cut his teeth recording comedy albums filled with suggestive language and headlining his share of R rated films. Although Funny People received an R rating, Sandler's subsequent movies (Just Go With It, Jack and Jill, Grown Ups) have been comedy that the entire family can enjoy. With That's My Boy, Sandler returns with more adult humor, and he says it was pretty fun using curse words, even if it irritates members of his family. (Click on the audio player to hear Adam Sandler)
That's My Boy opens in theatres this Friday.
Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted took the box office crown, earning $60,350,000 over the weekend. Since its first film in 2005, the Madagascar franchise, which features the voice work of Ben Stiller and Chris Rock, has been roundly loved by both children and adults.
Prometheus, director Ridley Scott's return to the sci-fi genre, came in at second place, taking in $50,000,000. Starring Noomi Rapace and Charlize Theron, Prometheus serves as a prequel to Scott's 1979 feature Alien, and the filmmaker has stated that more Alien installments are in the works. With the success of Prometheus, a sequel is pretty much a foregone conclusion.
Last week's box office winner, Snow White and the Huntsmen, fell two spots to third place, grossing $23,021,000. Despite a 59% drop from last week, there are still strong rumors of a sequel.
Rounding out the top five is Men in Black III, which earned $13,500,000 in its third week of release. The film has earned over $135,505,000, proving that the franchise is still going strong (the first Men in Black came out in 1997). Over a month since its release, The Avengers is still going strong, as it came in at number five with $10,809,000. The Avengers is now the third highest grossing film of all time, trailing James Cameron's two blockbusters, Titanic and Avatar.

Ben Stiller grew up in a show business family, as his parents are famed comedic team Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara (they were called Stiller and Meara). Some children go the opposite way career wise from their parents, but Stiller admits he loved movies as a kid and was determined to follow in his parents' footsteps. (Click on the audio player to hear Ben Stiller)
It's amazing to think that The Ben Stiller Show debuted over twenty years ago (1992) and he directed (and starred) in the 1994 feature Reality Bites. Now he's one of the many voices in the family film Madagascar 3, which is out in theatres now.
Filmmaker Ridley Scott, who flourished in the sci-fi world thanks to Alien and Blade Runner, makes an ambitious return to the genre with the new film, Prometheus. Scott's cinematic trademark is his unmatched visual style, and Oscar winner Charlize Theron was excited to work with Scott in the feature, which also stars Noomi Rapace and Michael Fassbender. Theron believes that movies like Prometheus are simply Scott's "ball of wax." (Click on the audio player to hear Charlize Theron)

I installed the latest 3.5 kernel last evening. grub-mkconfig ran, successfully. But now, when I boot Sabayon, I get three messages that say, "Error: file not found" Then, it says to Press any key to continue, and Sabayon completes booting, successfully. It is using the correct new kernel.
I tried rerunning grub-mkconfig, manually, but it did not fix it. What is wrong and what do I need to do to fix it?
PS - It aslo seems that I am running an updated version of grub2. I believe it came as a dependency of the new kernel.
