Dell may enter smartphone arena as early as next month
The Wall Street Journal is weighing in on Dell's rumored smartphone offering, adding further weight to rumors predicting the PC maker will enter the arena to take on Apple's iPhone.Citing sources familiar with Dell's plans, the financial paper reported the Round Rock, Texas-based company has an office in the Chicago area where a group of engineers have been working on the phone "for more than a year."
"They produced prototypes built on Google Inc.'s Android operating system and Microsoft's Windows Mobile software," said the report.
One model has a touchscreen with no physical keyboard, like the iPhone. Another is a slider-style phone with a keypad that slides out from beneath the screen, like the Pre. The report also notes Dell's recent hiring of two former Motorola employees.
"We haven't committed to anything," a Dell spokesman told the Journal, which concluded Dell hasn't finalized its plans and could still give up the effort without releasing a device.
Meanwhile, Kaufman Brothers' analyst Shaw Wu wrote in a research note released to clients today that the news is consistent with his supply chain checks and his own comments from earlier this month, predicting an entrance into the cell phone market for Dell as soon as mid-February.
Dell might make its announcement at the GSMA Mobile World Congress event (formerly 3GSM) in Barcelona, Wu said.
"We believe it makes sense for Dell and other PC makers to pursue more aggressive strategies in the smart phone space," Wu wrote. "We believe smart phones are moving upstream into the notebook space. Dell is the latest PC vendor to enter the market...So far, only Apple has made material inroads."
The analyst reiterated his warning that Dell will need to stand out from the crowded market in order to succeed, recommending the company use its own operating system because "most of the other players use the same software, including Windows Mobile, Symbian, and/or Google Android, leaving little room for innovation."
Dell, like Research In Motion's BlackBerry Storm and the anticipated yet unreleased Palm Pre, faces a formidable opponent in the iPhone 3G. Last quarter saw the Apple device outsell the Storm four-to-one.
Since going on sale last summer, the iPhone 3G has sold more than 4.3 million units in the United States. Recent signs also point to a major update to the iPhone in June, possibly making it that much more difficult for any competitor to gain headway in the sector.
The Wall Street Journal also reported Hewlett-Packard is selling phones in Europe with an automatic backup feature, while Acer is planning to join Lenovo in the smartphone marketplace as well. Together, the iPhone and BlackBerry control 70% of the U.S. market.
This is a critical time for Dell to find a "hit", as the company is losing PC market share, including a 0.9 percent year-over-year decline last quarter. Shares of the company's stock have fallen 60 percent since August.
For more information on Dell's rumored smartphone and how the company is evolving, please refer to AppleInsider's previous report.
On Topic: iPhone
- Report: iPhone 5s to soon account for 1 in 5 iPhones, 5c growth stagnant
- Russia's Megafon deal with Apple, Inc. guarantees sales of 750k iPhones over 3 years
- Pebble adds eBay, Evernote & Time Warner as latest smart watch app partners
- Apple continues to add share in U.S. smartphone market, now holds 42%
- iPhones much more likely to be stolen, less likely to be broken or need replacement

Heartspring develops real-time data collection system for making better decisions
- Emily Behlmann
- Digital Editor- Wichita Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+ | LinkedIn
Dusty Buell, director of marketing at Heartspring, says the program could be useful to other centers that work with special-needs children.
The group is still deciding what it would take to make it publicly available.
There are a few potential competitors on the market. DDtrac is one software tool for measuring progress of special education students.
Harder says he's working to make the program Apple App Store-compliant so it could eventually be publicly released. He's also working with Heartspring's outpatient clinic on a version of a software that could fit the needs not only of that clinic, but also of others outside the Heartspring system.
Emily Behlmann oversees the website and other digital projects. She covers technology.

Hey girl! I am really glad to hear that you are trying to be a good friend to your BGF. This is probably not the answer you want to hear, but there might not be much you can do to protect him from getting hurt. If he has already shot down your first attempt to help him out, he will probably only get more and more annoyed the more you try. I don't think there is much that you can say to change his mind since he likes his girlfriend so much. Continuing to warn him is just going to make him mad at you.
I would say the best thing you can do in this situation is to let him do what he wants with his relationship and just be there for him if they break up, which it sounds like a possibility. You have already tried to be a good friend warning him. The next best thing you can do is to be there to help him pick of the pieces if he gets his heart broken. Whatever you do, don't give him the ol' I-told-you-so line. No friend wants to hear that when they're upset.

I've taken my 6 & 2 yr old girls to W meets. Just single, not group. So there's not a bunch going on. You can get very close. It's a great time. |

I'd always heard foot the bill. Have no idea where "foot" comes from. Flip makes more sense. I just hadn't heard it before. |

Is flipping a bill different than footing a bill? |

I was there in 2009 and it was awful. I also overheard many people near the end of the Nebraska game this year saying they weren't coming back for OSU. I told them they should. Hopefully it was only emotion and a few weeks inbetween will help them see the light! GO BLUE!! BEAT OHIO!! |

When you take into account walking to and from and getting in and out of your section. |
19 weeks 3 days ago | correct, but so was OP |
We can't get in a 3-way tie in scenario one like you said. But the OP never said it was a 3-way tie. He just said we own the tiebreakers. That would be against Neb or MSU, whoever whins their head to head. The 3-way tie is scenario 2 at 7-2 like you said. |

32 weeks 5 days ago | Right |
Like I said below, if all you want to do is stream, this is cheap and does that. But you get so much more with an HTPC and extenders. |
32 weeks 5 days ago | No |
No, Roku doesn't have a standard web browser. You can only watch stuff through their apps/plugins/whatever-they're-called. They have a lot though. |
32 weeks 5 days ago | roku |
I have a good buddy with roku and he is happy. I haven't seen a chromecast yet, but like joeyb says, roku is a better device right now. |
32 weeks 5 days ago | true |
If all you want to do is stream, this seems like a good cheap option. I just don't get why so many are excited about streaming to a tv when that capability has been around for a long time. Maybe just b/c of the google name. |
32 weeks 5 days ago | Why did you stop using your |
Why did you stop using your htpc? What kind did you have? |
32 weeks 5 days ago | extenders |
If you use media center on a PC you can get extenders (Xbox or other) that do HD quality wirelessly too. I have 2 set up to extend my htpc. |
32 weeks 5 days ago | remote |
I already have a remote to control Media Center. I also have an app on my phone that can be a remote. The only time I pull out a keyboard is for admin tasks, which isn't very often. I'm just saying this doesn't offer anything that you don't already have with just a PC hooked up to your tv and you get a lot more from the PC. I use it as a 4TB DVR. Cost is nice for chromecast, but I would pay for a PC in the house anyway, I just use it for a tv too. |
32 weeks 5 days ago | Media Center |
I also have a PC hooked up to my TV and can do all of that. Netlfix, HBO, Hulu all have add ins. Even amazon I can just open a browser. I've had it for about 8 years now. |

Anecdote |
1 year 5 weeks ago | Depth? |
I'm always surprised how many commentators (or coaches in the article) say we lack depth. I think our team is pretty deep. 4 guys off the bench play quite a bit. I think a 9 man rotation is plenty deep and we know Bielfeldt can play too. |
1 year 5 weeks ago | when was it tweeted? |
I don't see any timestamp. |

I count 7 BIG teams eligble, but your chart and summary say 6. |
1 year 16 weeks ago | yes! |
I agree. I really hate it when announcers call an end around a reverse or a regular reverse a double reverse. Just cause there were two handoffs doesn't make it a double reverse. Maybe if the QB starts with sweep motion, but just handing off to a back like this play doesn't make it a single reverse. |

What's with the [knock]? First I thought he was knocking on wood... but the 2nd group in the consistency question didn't make any sense to me. |
1 year 20 weeks ago | TE comparison clip |
I think that's the wrong clip for comparing AJ Williams to Kwiatkowski. The clip is the screen to Gallon and the TE at the top doesn't really do much of anything and the DE doesn't tackle Denard as you described. |

1 year 36 weeks ago | discover and amazon |
I have a discover card and a chase amazon card. I use them both. Discover will run special 5% bonus on certain items certain months. Plus you get extra cash back if you redeem for gift cards instead of directly for cash. Only do it if you're sure you'll spend the gift card though! |
1 year 36 weeks ago | better redemption |
But it's better not to apply to amazon purchases b/c then you don't get your triple points! Take the cash and spend it elsewhere and charge all amazon orders to your card. |
1 year 37 weeks ago | bleachers |
I expect them to put bleachers between the scoreboards and ends of the suites instead of ontop of the suites. This would make it a closed oval instead of open in the corners. The suites are a little higher than the scoreboards now, but you could make it work. |
1 year 38 weeks ago | yes |
Since they have the family approval. |

"By the way, the most expensive way to earn Priority Points is to earn a 4-year degree from the University of Michigan." Grad degrees are even worse! You actually don't get any points (assuming you did UG at UM too).... it's like throwing your money away, except for the whole degree thing. My wife and I have 5 UM degrees between us and a total of 10 points for them... that's $200 a pop! |

2 years 1 week ago | kickoffs |
I'm not sure teams will be smart enough to avoid touchbacks. I always hate when there's a penalty (especially 15 yard variety) on a score and the team gets to kickoff from the 45. What do they do??? Boom in through the uprights. If they don't do it there, what makes anyone think they'll do it from the 35? The one argument might be that it's always the case so they can practice it more than the rare 45 yard line kickoff. |

What does Charlie have against Bing? There are much more buckeyey (sp?) search engines out there. |
2 years 3 weeks ago | Loved it |
I lived in Seattle for 5 years and loved watching the games at 9am on Sat morning. Get up, roll down to the Rocksport and have a large omlette and watch the game. No waiting nervously for kickoff. Then party down all day after a W. I don't understand why everyone thinks noon is so early. Especially the students who just have to walk over to the stadium. |
2 years 3 weeks ago | Chart? |
I also came near the end of the RR era. I wonder if Brian/other can make a chart of number of registered users versus time or numbe of newly registered users vs time. Might make an interesting chart. |

Isn't the Men's Lacrosse match against Ohio also on the 4/14? Are they going to do some kind of combo lacrosse/spring football all day event? |

Great info, thanks for the diary. I've caught a few games on TV and was always confused in a couple places. This helped! What are typical shift lenghts? Or do you typically sub out just on offense/defense switches? |

2 years 8 weeks ago | thanks |
I stand corrected. I guess I shouldn't have been lazy and looked it up to confirm. |
2 years 8 weeks ago | time left |
I think the shot clock resets to 15 or 18 secs in the case of any foul. Since there was less than that left, it turns off. Similar the NBA where I think it resets to 13 on a foul. |
2 years 8 weeks ago | two for one |
I agree about the 2 for 1. Seems like they never go for it in college, but it's good strategy. Unfortunately, like you said, the refs made it ugly. Not only did the miss the Stu foul after the ticky tack Hardaway call... then he calls a travel instead of the jump ball? Craziness. Add that with the many many replay reviews made the game really slow. At least the refs were bad both ways, but ugh. |
2 years 8 weeks ago | Interesting line |
Saban breeds a miserable atmosphere? How does he get so many good players then? |
2 years 12 weeks ago | Wile? |
Wile was a pretty good punter this year. Wouldn't he be next in line after Hagerup? I would think by the time Hagerup is done, Wile could handle all the PK, kickoff, and punting duties. |

2 years 14 weeks ago | too late |
Already has its own thread |
2 years 14 weeks ago | Could be |
But Odoms was in motion on the play so did Denard call hike too early? Or was Odoms slow in motion? Hard to say. From watching it live, it didn't look to me like he was too far out of position and the pitch was too far sideways. I haven't seen that play on TV yet so I could be wrong. I think the QB has to take a look and give Odoms a chance. Have to wait for the UFR I guess :) Edit: And another great diary by the way. Thanks. |
2 years 14 weeks ago | Odoms |
One nitpick: "His TD catch after muffing the pitch from Denard was just Odoms being Odoms" Odoms didn't muff the pitch. It was a bad pitch by Denard. Still a great catch by Odoms. Being in the stands, I didn't see the double catch until the replay. |
2 years 14 weeks ago | No |
you don't vacate losses, only wins. So the series will forever be weird now. |
2 years 15 weeks ago | I think it's over |
31-17 LSU is too much for Ark with the way their offense has been. They needed to keep it a one score game. BEAT OHIO! |
2 years 15 weeks ago | Still like Granderson |
I still like Granderson b/c he was a Tiger and my favorite one at that. I said I was still happy and wanted Verlander to win... doesn't mean I can't think about for peronal benefit. |
2 years 15 weeks ago | Woody |
Wasn't Wooddy Hayes the first one to start it by calling us that school up north? I don't know of it starting before then. BEAT OHIO!! |
2 years 15 weeks ago | wow |
I agree. Just unbelievable that people don't get it. Very good post Bobby. Loved it. BEAT OHIO! |
2 years 15 weeks ago | Thanks! |
I guess it was worth less than I expected probably b/c the odds of scoring 6 from that point on the field was low. But we did and basically pushed it out of reach. That drive as a whole pushed it from ~90% to 99% a win based on my gut, not the numbers. Good thing we have Mathlete around. |
2 years 15 weeks ago | roughing the kicker |
I'm suprised the roughing the kicker call on our punt wasn't one of the top 3 positive plays for us. It let us keep the ball and we ended up scoring on that drive to put it out of reach. I thought that was very big at the time. BEAT OHIO! |
2 years 15 weeks ago | I was split |
But only b/c I have GrandyMan on my fantasy team and it's worth $10 bucks for me if he got it. The Tigers fan in me is very happy for JV. I think he deserved it more! |
2 years 17 weeks ago | same thought |
I had the same thought Hugh, I mean Larry. It seems like the defense will recognize their own team's offense much quicker after having played against it all year. Leave's a lot more practice time for all of our gimmicks. I'm frustrated with the offense this year. I know Borges knows a hell of a lot more about football than me, but sometimes I just don't get what he's thinking. |

2 years 18 weeks ago | Overthrow? |
Any chance Devin made the right read and overthrew Hemmingway instead of the wrong read and underthrowing Gallon? I didn't think so during the game, but looking at the picture, Hemmingway is pretty much as close to the ball as Gallon when it comes down. Did Hemmingway adjust to it in the air better? I think the wind was blowing from right to left so if anything it knocked the ball down on that play which doesn't support my theory. Just wondering if anyone knows for sure that Devin was targetting Gallon. I don't think so, but the thought crossed my mind. |
2 years 18 weeks ago | catch up |

We were maybe one play away from tying it late in the 4th quarter, but I don't think anyone would call that 1 play away from winning. |
2 years 21 weeks ago | I was thinking the same |
thing with Countess due for a big play. I'll think he'll get some extra PT this week. But you're much more specific calling out the type and time of the pick. I was just saying a big play... sack, fumble, big 4th down stop. I'll be happy if you're right and he returns it for 6! |

2 years 22 weeks ago | Game 2 |
Who's gonna pitch game 2 for the Tigers? Scherzer after ~40 pitches or Porcello? I'm thinking Leyland will go with Porcello and then let Scherzer pitch game 3 back at home on full rest. Haven't seen any comments from Leyland yet. |
2 years 22 weeks ago | Hangin on |
Wow 2 weeks in a row on top. I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts... FL and ND are going to pull me down. Where is CottonPicker and why did you copy me? I thought Clemson was a good pick, but better that I hoped. |

What a game. Close the whole way, but held on. Great job by the pitching staff. |
2 years 22 weeks ago | Smith throw |
"You know how you're watching a football game and it's just bleeding obvious that the RB/WR is going to throw? You ever get that feeling? I do all the time. I was shocked when Smith pulled up to throw, and so was Minnesota." ME TOO! |
2 years 22 weeks ago | NW Record |
Isn't NW 0-1 BIG record? EDIT: Oops, beaten to the punch. My bad. |
2 years 25 weeks ago | It still matters |
In the event that a wild-card team is in the same division as the team with the best record, the former will play the second-best team in the league while the latter will face the third-best. So if it ends up NYY and BOS as best division winner and wild card respectively. NYY would play #3 division winner at home and #2 division winner would host Boston at home. Therefore, if DET is #2 (ahead of Texas), they get to play at home. I am aware of the rule. I am still correct. If we stay ahead of Texas and everything else stays the same with NYY and BOS, we get home field. Link: |
2 years 25 weeks ago | home field |
It was a great game, but now I'm pulling for home field. We're 2 up on Texas and have a chance at catching the yanks. 3 back and they have 6 against TB and 3 against Bos. We get Bal & Cle. There's still some exciting baseball left. GO BLUE!!! GO TIGERS!!! GO LIONS!!! I love this time of year!!! |
2 years 25 weeks ago | yeah |
At least I'm ahead of Brian!! 200th place baby. |
2 years 25 weeks ago | Depends on the kid |
Wow, surprised how many people on here are saying no way never ever take a kid to the game. I took my 2 year old daughter last year to Uconn and she loved it. I'm planning on taking her again to EMU this weekend. There are probably some kids who can't handle, but mine did great. She loved the band, the cheers, talking to people around us, and she's beginning to learn about the actual game too. Have to start somewhere. I agree it would be different at say ND or OSU, but finding the right game with good weather and it's a great day. |

they were told that they wouldn't be getting failure to monitor or lack of instutional control (the two harshest violations) for the tattoo for memorabelia stuff. The NCAA never said that the weren't done investigating other issues. I think a lot of people (media included) took that to mean something very different. I took that to mean the SI and OTL stuff that came out. |

2 years 31 weeks ago | so... |
So what? Your debate about Bin Laden and 9/11 (not 911, that's emergency service) are irrelevant to what the Seals did. Unless you believe that Bin Laden wasn't a bad guy and that they shouldn't have done anything to him. It's a heroic tale about the planning and execution by some great military people for our country. |
2 years 31 weeks ago | agreed |
Very interesting. I would have started a thread, but can't. I wonder where the reported got all his detail from. He seemed to have a lot of inside info and hard to know what is stories and what is true. By the time I was done, I thought it would make a great movie. Hopefully some of Seal Team 6 are UM grads and that could be worked in. |

2 years 37 weeks ago | agreed |
When I say X's & O's, I'm including fundamentals and technique in that as well. Not just positioning and scheme. Maybe that's not technically correct, but I think X's & O's is all the day to day stuff a coach drills home in practice and film sessions. You need to have all your great recruits motivated and with fundamentals, technique, scheme, and in game adjustments. |
2 years 37 weeks ago | apologies |
I did miss that last line, or at least didn't comprehend it when I read it b/c I was already thinking about the 3rd part of coaching. Glad we're on the same page. I'll wait patiently for the other diary after the season to talk about the great coaching ability of our whole staff! |
2 years 37 weeks ago | left out |
Those are all good points, but you also have to be a coach who understands X's & O's and can coach in a game. Yes, recruiting and motivating players are very important, but a good X's & O's coach can win with inferior players and when you win, the rest falls into place. Luckily, I think Hoke and his staff have both. But 'getting it' in order to recruit and motivate isn't sufficient. |

I wouldn't like it on the 31st. Then there would be 2 Rose Bowl games played in 2011. You couldn't talk about the 2011 Rose Bowl b/c there would be 2. It's hard enough to keep track of what happened what years. |
2 years 39 weeks ago | ha |
Yeah, good point. I should have made the distinction. I guess that does make a difference. She's 10 years younger than me, so I don't go into detail b/c I was in college and she was in Jr. High when I met her so she stills seems young to me. |
2 years 39 weeks ago | not about her |
I asked her about other girls on Team Blue, not her, and she said she never saw anything. No reason to doubt that. I have heard other good stories from her so not like she would hide it. She also tells my wife EVERYTHING, and there were never any stories about anything with Team Blue. I really think it's a game-day vs other recruiting trips. How are you going to get hinky at the game? She never went to parties after or anything. Like other's have said, Team Blue is mostly a marketing/administrative task related to recruits and getting them to right places and on time. |
2 years 39 weeks ago | Team Blue? |
Is Club Blue different than Team Blue? My sister-in-law (enough with the sex jokes) worked for Team Blue for a couple years in her undergrad. She worked at Schembechler Hall a couple days a week doing paperwork and then would also go to games and show recruits around the stadium and get them to where they were supposed to be on schedule. I asked about the funny business and she said she never saw any. Maybe there's a different group for non-game-day recruiting visits. She only did office and game-day stuff. |
2 years 39 weeks ago | great game |
I was at that game. It was a good 24 hours being on South Beach for New Years bringing in the millenium and then watching the awesome game. What fun! |
2 years 40 weeks ago | Too soon to tell |
There's a long time to wait until 1) We know if he's even allowed to play. 2) How good Miller or Bausserman even is. and 3) How will Pryor take the layoff. If Fickell tries to decide now who is going to be the QB in games 6-10, he's a bad coach. Assuming Pryor is eligible to play, you have to compare how he's doing in practice to how Miller/Bausserman does in the games. If Miller plays well, maybe you give Pryor a few series here and there. The big benefit is going to go to Miller though b/c Fickell will want to plan for the future and give Miller any edge so he gets more experience. Pryor is gone at the end of the year no matter what so giving him playing time is only going help in the short term. Who knows, if they can't go to a bowl, then there's no reason to even give Pryor a look. |

2 years 40 weeks ago | sanctions |
I think it's really hard to say what kind of a class they get until the sanctions come out. I'm assuming they'll come out before signing day. They will also have a new coach come that day. I'm pretty sure a lot of kids will keep their commitment and see how it all plays out. But when the hammer comes down, or some of them don't like the new hire, then I imagine a lot of them will bolt. The class is going to look good through the season, then fall apart. Probably still above average, but way below tSIO standards. |
2 years 40 weeks ago | whole new staff |
I'm not so sure they won't clean the whole staff. Especially if Gee & Smith get punished for their horrible oversight and handling of "investigations" of the program. Also if the problems spread to other programs than just football. Anyways, a clean break may be what they, or the new administration, is looking for. Hard to say. |
2 years 40 weeks ago | BIG top 4? |
I'm as much of a big 10 homer as anyone, but the top 4 jobs are all BIG teams? USC, Bama, and OK should be in the top 5 with UM and tSIO. I would put ND next just based on history, but not recent or future possibilities since they are still independent and that will only hurt them. |
2 years 40 weeks ago | it's up |
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/magazine/05/30/jim.tressel/index.html |
2 years 41 weeks ago | nope |
I would want 1. 3 will probably happen though. Berenson rink and Webber court. EDIT: wow, I guess I should include /sarcasm from now on |
2 years 41 weeks ago | Side track |
On a similar topic, do we want Tressel fired or do we want him to stay so we can beat him. Interested arguments. I would start my own thread.... http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/news?slug=rivals-1224939 |
2 years 41 weeks ago | Awesome |
Where is the waitlist for season tickets... I want in! |
2 years 42 weeks ago | Whoa |
That's scary. Sorry. I just found the img online so maybe we just both stole it from the same place. But yes, you should feel flattered. |
2 years 42 weeks ago | They should be the first |
They should be the first to do this. They were the first the do instant replay, the first to have their own TV network. Look how fast everyone else follows when the good ideas work. Somebody has to go first. I'm all for them going first b/c of the obvious advantage it will give in recruiting for a year or two until everyone else catches up. |
2 years 42 weeks ago | Keep 'em coming |
Welcome T-Rich. Glad to see you Go Blue!! |
2 years 43 weeks ago | If you don't like playing |
If you don't like playing tSIO back to back b/c we might win the first and lose the second, what if we lose the first and then win the second. Would it better then b/c we get the championship? This was more about the determining division champions, but since you brought up changing the divisions, I actually like the way it is. I'm not sure what full division breakdown you want when you say just use geography E/W, N/S?? But I think no matter how you do it, one division is going to have all the power and it will bring more imbalance to the strength of schedule. I think everyone who complains about UM having the tougher schedule is looking at it incorrectly. It's tSIO that has the tougher schedule. It's bad for them. We're the better school in the long term!! |
2 years 43 weeks ago | nice |
Thanks for the info Tom. One typo though for #96 Jordan Payton state is listed as WR... should be CA unless the USPS is coming up with new state abbreviations that I'm behind on. |
2 years 43 weeks ago | Tell Rittenberg |
Someone should tell Rittenberg to change his first line!! |
2 years 43 weeks ago | I seem to remember they had |
I seem to remember they had UM at 15 in the first "pre-season" poll right at the end of last season (before DMo left). So dropping 10 spots b/c of Morris leaving seems about right to me. Can't find the link that had them 15 though I'm pretty sure it was on espn. |
2 years 43 weeks ago | The BCS should be left out of |
The BCS should be left out of the argument. This is to determine the B1G championship game so you should remove other implications of the results. You want the BIG games to have BIG implications. The last game in november will more often affect BIG than BCS. Second thing is that you can always come up with a scenario about some team getting screwed no matter what the system is. Come up with a system you like, and I'll bet I can break it. The goal is to make most of the games count and try and keep it even. Yeah, so we have tSIO as our protect rival and so what? We're good enough that we should win anyway. Who knows, maybe when tSIO gets hammered by the NCAA for TatGate, they'll be down fora few years. The other division cross over games will even out over time. There's always going to be ups and downs and changes in strength of schedule. |
2 years 43 weeks ago | I think the reason they use |
I think the reason they use the whole conference record is so that all the conference games mean something .If you use just divisional record, what the the last game in November mean for UM if they've already got a championship bearth locked up?? Same goes for a lot of other games, which may not have the same history. The SEC, Big 12, and ACC all use full conference record for determining championship game representation. |
2 years 44 weeks ago | Good stats |
Arizona should regret that trade. Scherzer is looking good and is consistent. Hopefully he can take some of the pressure off JV and still handle it well. |
2 years 44 weeks ago | Dhani Jones |
is hilarious and intelligent. I would have to agree with Denard for the current player. |
2 years 44 weeks ago | edit |
I realize QB is different than CB.... How do I edit my own post... I don't see a way to do that. Thanks in advance. |
2 years 44 weeks ago | Good point, but |
Even if the whole season isn't shot, the way people are talking I would expect off-season practice to be cut some and that's going to hurt rookies more. All the uncertainty would make me nervous. Hopefully DMo knows something I don't. |
2 years 44 weeks ago | Greg Brown |
Doesn't the extra spring practice for Brown give him the leg up on Countess even if Countess may have more raw talent to start? Look at Forcier and Robinson. The only reason Forcier started as a frosh is b/c he had the extra practice. I realize QB is different than QB with regards to learning schemes in practice. That said, I hope it's Wile so that we have kicker locked up for years to come. Also, K requires the least change from HS to College. |
2 years 44 weeks ago | I wish him the best.. |
But I think the beginning of the next point is the bigger one: "With the NBA almost certainly headed toward a lockout" I guess it's nice to get paid (hopefully rookies can still sign contracts in a lockout??) to sit around, but personally, I'd much rather play another year, improve my game, and make a run in the tourney. Manny Harris is a cautionary tale, but the exception. Guys usally improve with more playing time. If he develops a jumper and a left hand, he'll be a lottery pick next year even if the draft class is stronger. |
2 years 44 weeks ago | Who's getting cushions? |
How many of the season ticket holders are getting cushions or not? I can't decide if I want them. Thanks! |
2 years 44 weeks ago | Ahh, I get it |
Thanks for the explanation wolfman. I get it now... I was really confused for a bit. |

Del Bosque unhappy with Spain players
Spain coach Vicente del Bosque is not pleased by the actions of some national team players during an ill-tempered Copa del Rey semifinal between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.
Madrid beat Atletico 3-0 in the first-leg semifinal on Wednesday when Madrid players Alvaro Arbeloa and Sergio Ramos were among those to clash with Atletico striker Diego Costa, a Brazilian-born, naturalized Spaniard who is expected to be at the World Cup for Spain.
Del Bosque says ''there are episodes I did not like seeing (...) everyone has to defend their team but there were clashes and personal conduct that were not adequate.''
Spain's squad has previously had to make peace between club players from Madrid and Barcelona following nasty episodes in clasicos.

Accepted minimum expectations
As Michigan fans, each year we have a ceiling expectation of 13-0 and National Champs. Whenever I am asked by friends and family for my preseason prediction for the upcoming year, this is the answer. However, somewhere down in my gut (which isn't too deep down because I am skinny), I have an "acceptable minimum expectation." At this point in the season, best case scenario would be 11-2, drawing interest from top recruits and stabilizing coaching jobs for years to come. However, what would be the minimum performance you could accept? Here is how my expectations break down: 11-2 ->pure joy and excitement for the inevitable NC's in 2011 and 2012; 10-3 ->same as above but possibly only a NC in 2012; 9-4 ->Happy that we took care of business and likely won a decent bowl game; 8-5 ->My acceptable minimum expectation...we won most of the games we should have, but probably dropped at least one where we were the better team; 7-6 -> Only winning 2 of the last 8 would make me very sad, especially if tOSU is not one of the wins; 6-7 -> My brain would explode at the impossibility of such a scenario.
Lloyd Carr says season is "tremendous"
In a Detroit News Web Blog, our former coach says we can have a 'great season' and we are off to a 'tremendous' start.
Turnovers under Rodriguez
A friend of mine made a statement today that he feels that UM will lose the PSU game due to the "characteristic turnovers and mistakes that are a RichRod staple."
I asked him if he thought they were a staple throughout his career or only at UM.
I searched mgoblog (granted, I'm not the greatest at this...but at least I tried) and came up with this diary with a nice chart.
However, I was wondering if there was any data that was more current. Anyone out there have access/time to post something like this? Maybe this has already been posted on mgoblog. Since the prevailing wisdom is that turnovers and mistakes cost UM at least a shot at the MSU and Iowa games, I would think this would be of interest to the board.

Mary Dejevsky: Will Israel still exist in 2048?
The choice might be between a fortress state and one so weak that federation with a burgeoning Palestine becomes plausible
This time last week the diplomatic world was on tenterhooks, as President Mahmoud Abbas prepared to make Palestine's claim to recognition at the UN General Assembly. Seven days on, his historic demand languishes in a vague limbo, as Americans and Europeans try to pre-empt an ill-tempered stand-off in the Security Council and the US veto that would surely follow. The idea seems to be to try to deflect the Palestinians with a promise of revamped peace talks with Israel.
Whether or not this tactic works, however, there can be little doubt that one day, sooner rather than later, a fully fledged Palestinian state will come into being. There have been many mis-starts, including the 2006 elections that much of the West rejected retrospectively when Hamas emerged as the biggest party. But the momentum is inexorable. The Arab Spring, better described as the Arab awakening, can only speed the process along.
The bigger and longer-term question relates not to the existence, or even the viability of a Palestinian state – which should be a given. The demographics, economics and politics all point the same way. It relates to the future, and long-term survival, of Israel. In short, will Israel, as the Jewish state, still be around to celebrate its centenary in 2048?
Let me make it absolutely clear: the question is not whether Israel should continue to exist. That is beyond doubt. It is a legally constituted state with full UN recognition. It is a stable, albeit fractious, democracy and has survived more than 60 years in a distinctly hostile neighbourhood. It has created a thriving economy, with intensive agriculture and advanced industry, from almost nothing. It has a rich cultural life. It is not alone in having borders that are not finally demarcated and are regarded by some as illegal. The fact that it has enemies who withhold recognition does not negate its legitimacy.
No, the question is not whether Israel should survive, but whether it can and will survive. And here there must be room at the very least for doubt. A string of recent developments contains hints that the state of Israel, as currently constituted, may not be a permanent feature of the international scene.
One is the new porousness of its borders. Despite massive spending on security and recent, controversial, efforts to erect physical barriers along what Israel defines as its border with the Palestinian Authority, its other frontiers have become, or threaten to become, porous. On several weekends in May and June, Palestinians in Syria breached the border with Israel. They did not use overwhelming force. Numbers were enough, against Israeli troops – rightly – reluctant to mow down dozens of young people.
The incursions appeared to be encouraged, if not actually incited, by the Syrian authorities seeking a diversion from their own difficulties. They have since ceased; but the threat remains, and could soon escalate were the situation in Syria to deteriorate. If, in the worst case, Syria descended into civil war, chaos could present an even greater danger to Israel because there would be no one in Damascus with the authority to call the crowds of frustrated young Palestinians back.
Something similar, perhaps even less tractable, applies in the south, on Israel's border with Egypt. Sinai is a vast territory and hard to patrol. Security on the Egyptian side has already deteriorated as a by-product of the fall of the Mubarak regime, and there have been attacks on Israeli convoys in the Negev. If unrest in Syria and Egypt were to extend to Jordan and the Palestinian Authority, the consequences for Israel's security could be even worse.
Add to these growing security problems the demographics – very young and fast-increasing populations in the countries all around – and it is clear that present trends will not easily be reversed. It is just about possible to imagine Israel resorting to the sort of impenetrable fortifications that extend along stretches of the US frontier with Mexico, but the investment would be huge, the message one of isolation, and the effect on daily life in Israel almost entirely negative.
A second reason why Israelis might be justified in having qualms about their future relates to the political aftermath of the Arab Spring. For a long time the fear was that any change in Arab countries would bring Islamist regimes to power, with fiercely anti-Israel agendas. That still cannot be ruled out. But what has happened so far could have more insidious consequences for Israel. Not only is the Jewish state losing its kudos as the sole democracy in the region, but those Arab leaders who actively supported peace have lost, or are losing, power, and the US is giving up on intervention.
One hope was that the emergence of more democratic regimes around Israel might foster a climate of normalisation and mutual respect. That may yet happen. But another effect is that leaders will have to be more responsive to the wishes of their people. As can already be discerned with Egypt, this may not bode well for stability in Arab-Israel relations. With the Arab Spring also bolstering the self-confidence of the Palestinians – a factor in Mr Abbas's decision to take his case to the UN last week – the political balance in the region is shifting.
A third reason for doubt about Israel's future lies within the Jewish state itself. With the early pioneering spirit fading, and even the Holocaust – dare one hazard – less of a unifying force, Israel is not the same country it was 60, 30, even 10 years ago. And demography means that it will continue to change, with the Arab, Orthodox Jewish and second-generation Russian populations increasing much faster than other groups. The Israel of the next 30 years is likely to be more divided, less productive, more inward-looking and more hawkish than it is today – but without the financial means and unquestioning sense of duty that inspired young people to defend their homeland by force of arms.
Recent mass protests against inequality and the cost of middle-class living also suggest that the social solidarity that has prevailed hitherto could break down. In such circumstances, it must be asked how much longer Israel can maintain the unity it has always presented against what it terms the "existential threat".
An Israel whose borders are leaky, which is surrounded by states that are at once chaotic and assertive, and whose citizens are less able or willing than they were to fight, could face real serious questions about its viability. The choice then might be between a fortress state, explicitly protected by nuclear weapons, and a state so weak that association, or federation, with the burgeoning independent Palestine would become plausible: the so-called one-state solution by other means.
In either event, those with other options – the younger, more educated, more cosmopolitan sections of the population – might well seek their future elsewhere, leaving the homeland of their ancestors' dreams a husk of its former self. The emotive call, "Next year in Jerusalem" would be the wistful vestige of a noble ambition overtaken by cruel demographic and geopolitical reality.
