Unverified Voracity Self-Inflicts
I guess I can't be mad at the Dispatch any more. Because we're doing it to ourselves:
If it motivates the players, great. I never want to see it again.
That's one way to put it. How are things on the Michigan State offensive line? Deep. Peachy. Deeply peachy:
Spartans depth sparks offensive line competition
This is their depth:
Converted defensive tackle Dan France has emerged as the leading candidate at left tackle, but the battle at center and right tackle are far from decided.
Redshirt freshman Travis Jackson and junior Blake Treadwell, another converted defensive tackle, are running neck-and-neck at center, while redshirt freshman Skyler Burkland and junior college transfer Fou Fonoti are fighting for the top spot at right tackle.
Er. France was flipped from OT to DT last year despite being 6'6" and now returns to be the starting left tackle. That is a hell of a position switch starter. This was his status in January:
"But in the bowl practice, I was struggling," he said. "I didn't know the (blocking) techniques and footwork. I never had done pass blocking before. I mean, I sort of did (at tight end) in high school, but I didn't have any technique or really know what I was doing."
Kirk Cousins might be under siege this year. Let's hope so, because if someone were to bold Michigan's secondary it wouldn't be much prettier.
Hey, here's a Michigan football coach talking. I wonder if he's going to talk about "violence," "toughness," "being physical," and "being consistent":
No, he mostly talked about cheese. Cheese and Will Campbell's pad level.
Of course not. Some news organization I can't be bothered to look up—oh this article says it's the Seattle Times—posted the shocking news there was a Pac-10/Big 10 "consensus" in favor of a plus one game. This was shocking for a little while until it was debunked. Or at least sort of debunked. Check out Jim Delany's reply to that:
"To describe the ADs as supportive, I would call that erroneous," Delany said.
Masterful weaseling right there. This on further expansion, at least, is a straightforward declaration they're not interested:
"No, we're about as comfortable as we can be with where we are," Delany said. "We've said we will continue to monitor the landscape, but we have closed down active expansion. Every period you look at it, but we don't expect anything the SEC does to affect us."
I'm increasingly irritated at the media reports predicting Superconferenceageddon without bothering to figure out whether adding teams like Pitt and Missouri helps or hurts the bottom line. The burden of proof is on people predicting unwieldy, tradition-hurting behemoths but all we get is "this is totally happening because it's an arms race!"
Yes, yes, TV markets blah blah. At times like these I think about Lloyd Carr in his last couple years sighing disgustedly whenever the subject of money came up in press conferences. He believed placing it above all other goals was destructive, he's looking prophetic at the moment.
Zing. I was just hoping Jerry Hinnen would drop some more twitter bombs on the SEC so I could post them up, and then he did:
Gotten the feeling that if Scott and Delany jumped off a bridge, SEC fans would gripe that Slive should have been the one jumping first. "We can't afford to react. You have to be proactive when it comes to bridge-jumping!"
Adding Nebraska had a purpose. Adding A&M to the SEC just dilutes it.
Downing disagreement. Retweets coming from Michigan Hockey Net and Yost Built over the course of the recent Five Nations tournament were rapturous about 2013 D commit (and team captain) Michael Downing. Examples from tourney observer @twharry:
The difference between Downing and DeAngelo is vast. I had no idea Downing was this good. He plays like a vet.
Michael Downing is having another very strong two-way game. Comparing him to Merrill may be unfairly lofty, but they are strikingly similar.
Breakaway going the other way. DeAngelo was way out of position. Luckily Downing was there to cover and Demko made the stop.
FWIW, talked to an ex-teammate of Downing today from CC - said he's the real deal, nat. skill set but little rough around the edges at times
When one of my friends checked out the Friday game he compared Downing to Nick Lidstrom. Apparently the US team was so confident in his positioning they would often send the other defenseman up the ice to pressure the Swiss. A local diary praised his game as well.
So of course a couple scouting reports are mixed at best, contradict the above, and contradict each other. WCH:
Michael Downing has had a very good summer--including locking down a scholarship to Michigan--which has helped turn him into one of the top defensive prospects in the US for his age group. He appears to have loads of potential with a big frame and nice skating, but still has a pretty long ways to go when it comes to decision-making and handling the puck. The pace of play here looked a little faster than what he was used to, which took him out of his comfort zone and forced him to make some bad turnovers. Not many players have things completely figured out by age 16 though, and with a little more experience, he has a chance to develop into a very nice player.
And the United States of Hockey:
Michael Downing - Canton, Mich. — The big defenseman served as the captain for this U.S. outfit. He's pushing 6-foot-3, but has some good mobility and offensive instincts. Despite the size, however, Downing was getting out muscled and hit hard by smaller players. The more muscle he can tack on, the better in the coming years. He'll also need to do a better job in his own end, but he appeared to improve defensively as the tournament went on. Despite the defensive deficiencies, I really liked his offensive game. If he can develop defensively, he could be a. pretty solid blueliner down the road. Draft eligible in 2013
Another Burns tweet did mention Downing needs to fill out quite a bit, so at least there's some consistency there. Downing maintains he's 110% committed to Michigan and is not a goalie, so he'll probably show up. I'm actually drawing a blank on the last Michigan D commit to skip out for the OHL before he hit campus. Seems like it's a F/G thing.
The Blip …is what I called the 2008 Wisconsin game in last year's Plays of the Decade feature. It was a briefly intoxicating lie about how good that team could be that presaged the less brief but no less deceitful starts the next two years; as such it's both an emblem and an enormous outlier.
Holdin' the Rope takes us way back when:
I sat and wondered how we could spring a comeback from so much flailing incompetence. I had faith, but it was that kind of belief that eats at itself if exposed to the light.. It's propped up by rubber bands and paper clips and a little bit of measured delusion and naivete.
Somehow, Michigan pulled itself together and willed themselves through a halfway decent touchdown drive in the third quarter, capped by Kevin Koger's first touchdown reception. A promise of a bright future. Michigan went down the field on the arm of Steven Threet, the legs of Sam McGuffie and Kevin Grady, and the hands of Martavious Odoms and Greg Mathews. Greg's last name only had one "t," but people managed to always get it wrong, and they probably still do. This wasn't Henson, Terrell, Walker, and A-Train. It wasn't Henne, Manningham, Arrington, and Hart. It wasn't Navarre, Braylon, Avant.
Etc.: Notre Dame is taking its sweet time figuring out where its hockey team is going to hang out. MGoMix is going with songs 1-5 and 6-10. Trailer for the Willis Ward movie is good. Shakin' the Southland's DrB talks 3-4, 4-3 under, and multiple fronts. Money quote:
In the one-gap 3-4, you have a blend of the 4-3 and the older two-gap system. You can take a guy that is a 'tweener' and put him at DE or OLB. You can take heavy interior linemen that are skilled at pass rushing, and put them at DE positions even if they don't run 4.6-4.7 in the 40. The fact that it is a one-gap system and easier to teach means they can rush the passer without regard for the linebackers and put what talent they do have to good use.
I do not advocate the one-gap 3-4 over the 4-3, each has its uses. I do prefer the one-gap over the 2-gap version because it disguises the bubbles in the front better, and is simpler to teach. I'm all for adding fronts that simply teach guys new places to stand without actually changing everything they're doing. In most cases, the fronts are exactly the same, but with different personnel.
Unverified Voracity Sees Jon Merrill's Pores
Great. Let's never do this again. Because it's June and someone had a pretty good idea for June, the Big Ten Network had its own awards show. They named Denard Robinson the breakout player and possessor of the "most dominant performance," that his 500+ yards against Notre Dame. Michigan 67, Illinois 65 was Game of the Year:
There wasn't much competition—the other candidates were Wisconsin's 13-point win over OSU and a basketball game.
Something interesting might happen next time. The NCAA hockey rules committee didn't do much other than the bi-annual point of emphasis about this or that (this time around it's hits to unsuspecting players and diving), but there are four interesting things under consideration for the next cycle:
- Four-on-four OT. This is "strongly" under consideration along with other methods to get a winner including a lengthened OT period. Shootouts will continue to be allowed, but support for mandating them is "limited."
- Awarding obviously imminent goals if the net is dislodged by the defense. This may be in direct response to an event at the Big Chill:
Michigan State did score, though. They put in a power play goal when a puck deflected high off Hunwick and fluttered to the goal line to be batted in, but a nanosecond before that happened Hunwick fell into the net and knocked it off. While the refs got the call right, it was totally unfair: you definitely scored, you didn't do anything to get the net off, and you still get nothing. They should probably change it so that if your goal is imminent when the defense knocks the net off you still get it.
I'm in favor, obviously.
- Dumping cages for visors. This is mostly to look as cool as CHL players. Red was in favor of this, IIRC, but I have a hard time seeing it pass in the safety-first NCAA.
- Allowing hand passes everywhere or disallowing them entirely. At first blush allowing hand-passes in the defensive zone only does look weird but I think this is one of those rules that evolved over time to be the least annoying option. Allowing a guy on the ground to slide a puck to a teammate for a goal seems ridiculous to me; banning defensive-zone hand passes will just mean more whistles since players will do it anyway. The alternative—an ugly turnover by a guy not in position to recover—is worse.
Sadly, the hockey rules committee remains ignorant to the existential threat posed by too many offsides whistles.
Hockey now plz. That exhibition against a Canadian team is going to be the most exciting exhibition against a Canadian team ever:
Brandon uber alles. I hope to yell "I CAN SEE YOUR PORES, WHICH ARE CALM AND EXCELLENT PORES, LET ME TELL YOU" at Jon Merrill next year.
Yost yesterday, Yost today, Yost tomorrow, Yost forever. It's kind of a duh statement to make after Yost has just had its fifth renovation since the mid-90s approved, this one a 14-million-dollar one, but Yost Ice Arena is not going anywhere. Red:
"I think Michigan has been really happy with our building and our program for the most part and they'd like to maintain that at this point," Berenson added. "I think they like Yost so much that they don't see a reason to build another building. And so, if we like Yost that much, well then why don't we fix it up?"
This renovation costs twice as much as the other four combined and with the new scoreboard is a definitive statement Yost is the future for the hockey program for at least the next 20 years.
This might be surprising coming from a guy who is militantly pro-tradition, but I have some mixed feelings about that. A lot of Yost's sightlines are sub-optimal and the weird overhang from the club seats/press box means the last few rows are surprisingly bad places to see a game in a 7,000 seat arena. That'll be even more true next year when people stuck in those seats are peering at the 90's-vintage tube TVs used as a substitute for the scoreboards. Whenever I go to Munn I think "this is a nice building even if it is filled with zombie monks" because there are many fewer bad seats.
I'm not sure if this is even possible but if they want to maintain the building as is without it being so cramped they might want to think about lowering the ice surface ten feet or so, which would allow them to reclaim those rows at the back of the arena and make the seating steeper to provide better viewing angles.
Let's destroy college baseball to save it. Man, Jim Delany has some crazy ideas about college baseball:
Perception says the Big Ten doesn't care about baseball. But no administrator in America has pressed harder to revamp the system. Delany's biggest ideas:
• Adopt a national start date in March or April and move the season deeper into summer.
• Devalue the RPI, which favors Sun Belt schools.
• Ditch the current method of national seeding and return to regional qualification for the College World Series.
College baseball's answer: No. No. No.
Then, last summer, Delany formally proposed the CWS move from eight teams to 10, with the two new slots reserved for cold-weather schools. Cold shoulder again.
"I've got no more proposals," Delany told the World-Herald. "I'm out of ideas. What else can we possibly do?"
There is one alternative. Delany expresses interest — though he hasn't officially proposed it — in an even bolder plan: Secede from the South. Form a new college baseball division. Compete for a different national championship.
"Hey, guys, I know you think this is insane and want to spit on my grave, which is in Transylvania next to Joe Paterno's, but wait until you hear these proposed Division names…
wait for it…
wait for it…
this is so exciting…
Leotards and Leopards."
The article linked above follows that list of wacky ideas up with a lot of Southerners laughing at Jim Delany and telling him he's killing his conference by not allowing oversigning. Southerners reading this post may have just involuntarily done the "just like football clapclaplclap" chant.
BONUS WEIRD ITEM: Jim Delany's first presentation to the NCAA about equity in baseball was made one day before 9/11. #coincidenceithinknot
(HT: The Bylaw Blog.)
Etc.: TSN's final NHL draft rankings are a little more down on John Gibson than most—he's 37th, one spot in front of OHL defector Lucas Lessio—but surprisingly include D commit Brennan Serville at #60. They don't have a picture or explanation for this, but that's quite a rise from Canisius commitment to fringe second rounder.

Unverified Voracity Is A Prettyman
Slick. You have to give Dave Brandon this: when he says he's going to "create the future," he's not kidding. The future is very, very corporate, which means that while we have to deal with retro-futuristic horror gimmicks we also get a Crisler Arena that isn't a dank cave:
That's the key artist's rendering from the just-approved $52 million renovation of Crisler: a concourse that looks… like… nice. There's a bunch of other stills you can check out at UMHoops; the overall result should be an arena on par with the rest of the Big Ten. The program is already headed that way without recruits being able to talk into the swanky new digs.
While hiring Brady Hoke seemed questionable, it was nowhere near the level of bumbling required to give Brian Ellerbe the job or let the department fall into a situation where compliance reports simply weren't being generated. Hopefully that's part of the past even if Brandon continually refers to the Michigan athletic department as "I".
BONUS: MVictors caught a very naughty old Block M in one of the renderings.
Reverse lockout. I was trying to will Darius Morris back to campus next year and therefore thought his decision to go this year wasn't a good one. In retrospect that's obviously wrong. Morris's strong pre-draft workouts have him solidly in the first round and even if that wasn't the case now was the time to strike with a lottery-scaring lockout keeping a half-dozen kids obviously in front of him in school:
Even though many felt another year at Michigan would improve his stock, Morris took the leap when players such North Carolina forward Harrison Barnes and Ohio State forward/center Jared Sullinger decided to stay in school.
That upped Morris' stock.
"That definitely played a part in my decision," Morris said.
Morris could get a lot better and not see his stock increase in a post-lockout draft featuring 1.5 years of lottery picks.
Of course, Morris could be having strong pre-draft workouts and still have the option to come back if the NCAA hadn't done away with that to make coaches feel better, or something. If Morris's strong pre-draft workouts were in fact crappy pre-draft workouts that locked him into the second round, boy would we be shaking our fists at the sky even harder now.
Also. Not that anyone who needs to be told this is amongst the people who can be reasoned with, but:
Once Morris declared, though, he experienced some backlash from fans who felt Michigan was primed to take a huge leap in 2011-12. But, he felt he was prepared for the criticism. He saw it happen with former teammate Manny Harris, who left last year after his junior season.
"It didn't get to me, I experienced it all my life," Morris said. "You do think about it, when your biggest fans instantly turn on you. It comes with the territory with the Michigan fan base."
That's probably not the best reputation for the school to acquire. I'm talking to you, 14-year-olds on twitter.
1889! Doctor Saturday was wandering along the Bentley's pages looking for anything that could conceivably be a precedent for Michigan's throwback-type uniforms when he discovered the raw sex that is Michigan 1889:
The dude in the middle claims to be a Ben Boutwell but is obviously time-travelling Devandra Barnhart. Also the guy on the bottom right is supposedly named "Horace Prettyman," which come on.
Nine games. BHGP has an excellent post on the pros and cons of the move to a nine-game conference schedule. One objection:
It still wouldn't eliminate the bodybag games. For all the lip service that's been paid to the notion that adding a ninth conference game would eliminate the games against the likes of Bumblefuck Tech that everyone hates -- no one has yet been able to offer up any clear examples of just how they would make the new system work. They want nine conference games AND seven home games (which is a non-negotiable point, according to multiple sources) AND they want to reduce the number of cupcake opponents that (most) teams play from two to one.
One man's objection to that objection via The Sporting News:
Ladies and gentlemen, we give you the Big Ten's best attempt yet at following the SEC: Of 48 possible nonconference games, the Big Ten has 14 games against BCS schools — only five of which are road games (10 total road games among the 48). And we're not done yet.
Most teams play three bodybag games right now. The Big Ten averages of just over one BCS opponent per team. Are those going to go away if a nonconference game is removed? Maybe somewhat but probably not much. Several of the games are perennials, anyone aiming for a national title is going to have to have a reasonable nonconference opponent just for the look of things, and these days the financial advantages of body-bag games and lower-tier bowls are nonexistent for teams on the bottom of the totem pole. The overall number of games worth caring about will increase. Maybe not on a 1:1 ratio, but significantly.
Machiavellian. Jim Delany sort of offhandedly mentioned he'd like to give football and basketball players—maybe even more than that—scholarships that cover the full "cost of attendance," which apparently they don't at the moment. Eyebrow Mount Doom speaks:
"Forty years ago, you had a scholarship plus $15 a month laundry money," Delany said. "Today, you have the same scholarship, but not with the $15 laundry money.
"How do we get back more toward the collegiate model and a regulatory system that is based more on student-athlete welfare than it is on a level playing field, where everything is about a cost issue and whether or not everybody can afford to do everything everybody else can do?" Delany asked.
That's estimated to be another 2-5k per year per scholarship, which you can ballpark around 300k. That's chump change for big schools and a big problem for smaller ones. The usual hue and cry about a "level playing field" has been anticipated and argued with even though no one takes it seriously. (Right? I mean, find me a recruit who picked Conference USA over the SEC or the MAC over the Big Ten*.) This would no more upset the balance of power than having teams that pack 100k fans into a stadium play South Alabama.
Meanwhile, at big schools that's money that's going to coaches right now instead of guys putting their future health at risk (at least to some extent). They should totally do it, not because it's good for power conferences—it's exactly the same for power conferences—but because it's Justice(!).
*[Yes, I know some guys ended up at UCF or something. When the percentage of guys who end up at smaller conferences with legit options at a BCS conferences creeps over 1% then you can badger me. Imaginary pedant is so into pedantry.]
This is fun when it's not happening to you. Yes, it is.
Etc.: Mets Maize asks "is that my boner or yours?" about Brady Hoke's recruiting spree. Zach Hyman says he wants to stay four years, which everyone says. He was headed to Princeton, though, so maybe take that a bit more seriously than you would otherwise.
Welcome To The Successories Conference
aaargh unnecessary comma
When Twitter blew up at noon I figured something inane involving Jim Delany had just happened—this is my default assumption whenever Twitter blows up and has always been right, even when Michael Jackson died—and good lord, inane doesn't even begin to cover it. You know this by now but to remind you that the people in charge of marketing the Big Ten are either very stupid or think you are very stupid, the Big Ten Divisions are called "Legends" and "Leaders."
So. A group of people responsible for turning the Big Ten Network into a spigot of filthy lucre so gushing it can afford to employ Chris Martin is also responsible for making the Big Ten the Successories Conference. They've created division names that signify nothing about the teams inside of them—the only way I can remember that Michigan is in the "Legends" division is that "Leaders" is part of the friggin' fight song and we're not in that division. Their inane names don't just start with the same letter, they start with the same two letters. They are unusable.
And they've done this with 15 minutes in photoshop:
Note the use of negative space. Also note how stupid it looks.
By comparison, the new Pac-10 logo would look badass on any soccer shirt in the world:
How can the same group of people responsible for creating the BTN be responsible for this? Obviously the visionary bits of the BTN arrangement come from Fox, with Delany and company the lucky nomads who parked their camels in the right bit of desert and now get to call themselves an emirate.
These division names do not exist. I'm not using them. Michigan is in the West. Ohio State is in the East. Wisconsin has to deal. It is immediately obvious which teams are in the West—the ones mostly in the west. Michigan can be Champions of the West, and no one has to think about how leadership is more about character than authority.
Can we make this a blogosphere-wide insurrection? Please? Everyone just use "East" and "West."
Remember when you'd go in your room and imagine that instead of a broken down tricycle you had a flying unicorn that could take you away from mommy and daddy's screaming? Yeah, this will be like that.
BONUS: someone on the twitters said "I'm pretty sure an ordinary @MGoBlog thread could have produced better logo options," which is true. So do it either in the comments or by email and I'll pull up the best five and we can vote on the Unofficial Big Ten Logo; I hope I can work out a deal with the winner so we can offer it to the conference for free, if only to shame them.

It's Super Rugby time! Who is going to win this year's Super Rugby title? Have your say on our Forum!
Capello's England on SA soil 2010-06-03 09:52 share this Capello's England emerges in to the bright Johannesburg sun. (AFP) Related Links Capello commits to England Capello gambles on Barry Capello sends harsh message Johannesburg - England arrived in South Africa on Thursday morning hoping a favourable first-round draw can be the catalyst for a serious World Cup challenge.GALLERY: England arrive in SACool, clear conditions greeted some of the most watched performers in the global televised football arena when they landed at Johannesburg international airport with manager Fabio Capello."I hope the World Cup will be a big success for South Africa and also for my team. Thank you. It is good to be here," the Italian told reporters on the airport tarmac.Live broadcasts of virtually all English Premiership matches mean the stars of Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool are more recognisable to many South Africans than domestic equivalents.A recent survey here revealed England would be the second most popular team after Brazil among local supporters should the national side fail to go all the way in the June 11-July 11 tournament.Tight security surrounded the grey-suited England stars as they followed Australia, Brazil, Argentina, Denmark, United States, North Korea and Nigeria in reaching the first African country to host the World Cup.Once immigration formalities had been completed at a temporary arrival facility, England headed by luxury coach for Rustenburg, a town two hours' drive west of Johannesburg in the heart of a platinum-rich area.It is there at the 45,000-capacity Royal Bafokeng Stadium on June 12 that England launch their Group C campaign against the USA, shock victors 60 years ago in the sole previous World Cup clash between the countries.Unexpected qualifiers Algeria will be the second and possibly weakest first round opponents at Cape Town Stadium six days later followed by another coastal setting for the game with Slovenia on June 23 in Port Elizabeth.While pundits harbour mixed views on how far Wayne Rooney-inspired England can go, there is unanimity that not coming first on the group table would be a massive setback.As winners England would probably meet and defeat Australia, Ghana or Serbia for a place among the last eight - where they exited the last two World Cup tournaments - but finishing second means bogey team Germany loom large.Since overcoming Germany 4-2 after extra time in London to win their only World Cup 44 years ago, England have experienced constant heartache against the decades-old rivals.Capello confirmed this week he will lead his 'Lions' in the Euro 2012 qualifiers after media speculation linked him with recently crowned European champions Inter Milan as a replacement for new Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho.The Italian has transformed England from a team that failed to even reach the Euro 2008 championship under Steve McClaren into 11-2 third favourites behind Spain and Brazil for the world title.Many of the McClaren-era team remains, including central defenders Rio Ferdinand and John Terry, midfielders Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard and leading scorer Rooney.But the rules are vastly different under Capello, who has never tolerated the celebrity-driven distractions that helped undermine some previous England campaigns. share this Read more on: england

Chelsea is a great server with a great smile. Also, we ran out of gas in Villanow last summer, and Jeff was the only car that stopped and he brought us a tank of gas.
God was good as always but today's server was not good tea served after meal and then no refills
judging by the previous tips left, im not excited about eating here.
And one morning waitress is a Whore! Sleeps with everybody's husbands
Great service! Ask for one of Becca's tables, also try the meatloaf, or Mama's Pancake Breakfast, and a Coca Cola Cake dessert.
Ok. Came here again. Worse. Servers absent. Had a ceiling fan blowing on us that was freezing us to death. Asked if they would turn it off. They said NO! Asked for a biscuit, never got it. Terrible!
Worst service ever at a Cracker Barrel. Save yourself some grief go a little further down I-75 to another location.
Not the greatest of service so far...... someone else took our order..our waitress,Sharon,has yet to acknowledge us.
This is the worst place I have ever eaten at!!! Seriously all the waiters an rude an do not care to serve you!! On top of that we were laughter at by four workers an possible the manager!

NOTICE TO GUARDIANS OF DISABLED ADULTS A GUARDIAN OF THE PERSON of a disabled adult must file with the court an ANNUAL REPORT in a manner similar to the form attached to this notice. The ANNUAL REPORT may be mailed to the probate clerk in the Lake County Circuit Clerk's Office, 18 N. County Street, Waukegan, Illinois 60085. If the annual report is mailed to the clerk for filing with the court, the guardian does not need to appear in court unless the court sends out a notice to appear. An ANNUAL REPORT must be filed every year. The first annual Report is due within 14 months after the date the letters of office were issued. In the following years, the Annual Report is due on the same day of the year as the first Annual Report was filed. A GUARDIAN OF THE ESTATE of a disabled adult has the following duties: To file a BOND approved by the court. Unless excused by the court, every bond must be guaranteed by at least two individual sureties or by a corporate surety company. If two individuals act as sureties, the amount of the bond must be double the value of the estate. The individual sureties must sign a notarized list of their assets which must be attached to the bond. If a corporate surety company is used, the amount of the bond is one and one-half times the value of the estate. A corporate surety company will charge the estate an annual premium like a premium on an insurance company. The premium must be paid every year. Surety on the bond may be excused if the money is invested in United States government obligations or bank accounts and certificates of deposit insured by the United States subject to withdrawal only upon court order. If the money may be withdrawn only upon court order, a receipt of the depository showing that no withdrawals will be allowed without court order must be filed with the clerk of the court. The receipt is called a certificate of depository. To file an INVENTORY with the court. The inventory should describe the real estate and the improvements and liens on the real estate. The inventory should also state the amount of money on hand and in what form the money is held (i.e. bank accounts, stocks, bonds, notes, etc.) and list all personal property. The INVENTORY must be filed with the court within 60 days after the issuance of the letters of office. 171P-33 Rev. 09/00 Page 1 of 2 To file an ANNUAL ACCOUNT with the court. The annual account should list all money received by the guardian and all money spent by the guardian on behalf of the disabled adult and the assets remaining on hand at the end of the accounting period. The guardian should be prepared to produce receipts for all expenditures made on behalf of the Disabled Person. A Guardian of the estate must appear in court to get the account approved. An ANNUAL ACCOUNT must be filed every year. The first Annual Account is due within 14 months after the date the letters of office were issued. In the following years, the Annual Account is due on the same day of the year as the first Annual Account was filed. To keep detailed records of all financial transactions in the estate accounts. If a guardian cannot explain to the court what he or she has done with the money of a disabled adult, or if the court finds the guardianship funds have been mismanaged or misused, the guardian may be held liable for the money and have to pay it back. The money and property of the Disabled Person should be kept separate and titled in the name of the Guardian of the Estate. To invest the assets of the Disabled Person frugally. Assets may be invested in United State government obligations or bank accounts and certificates of deposit insured by the United States. Other investments may need approval of the Probate Court. To use the assets and income of the Disabled Person exclusively for the benefit of the Disabled Person. Expenditures should be limited to providing the basics of food, clothing, shelter and health care. Extraordinary expenses should be pre-approved by the Probate Court. To obtain the permission of the Probate Court to sell, lease, or mortgage the property of the Disabled Person. If you do not understand the duties of guardian you should consult an attorney. For information about legal services, you can contact the Lake County Bar Association Lawyer Referral Service at (847) 244-3140 In order to schedule a court date, the guardian should contact the probate clerk of the Lake County Circuit Clerk's Office at (847) 377-3260. 171P-33 Rev. 09/00 Page 2 of 2

Deer Park, Louisville
Deer Park is a neighborhood four miles southeast of downtown Louisville, Kentucky, USA. Most of the neighborhood was developed from 1890 through the 1920s as a streetcar suburb, with all but six of its 24 subdivisions being developed by 1917, and the last laid out by 1935, although some development west of Norris Place continued after World War II.[1]
Deer Park's boundaries are Bardstown Road, Newburg Road, Eastern Parkway and Douglass Boulevard. Deer Park is considered a part of a larger area of Louisville called The Highlands.
Prior to subdivision, it was agricultural. The origin of the name is not entirely clear, although recent campaigns to "put the deer back in Deer Park" have seen colorful deer sculptures placed at local businesses, parodying a Louisville-wide campaign with larger horse sculptures placed similarly.[2]
Schools and landmarks[edit]
The neighborhood is largely residential. Most businesses and other non-residential buildings are found along Norris Place, Bardstown Road, and Newburg Road. These facilities include Highland Middle School and the King's Daughters and Sons Home, an institute for the ill and disabled opened in 1909 and renamed Highlands Nursing Home in the early 2000s. Other schools in the neighborhood include the Catholic primary schools St. Francis and St. Agnes, and the DePaul School, a private school for students with dyslexia and other specific learning differences.
Bellarmine University is located within the neighborhood's boundaries and until several years ago, Deer Park residents had little contact with the university other than its function as a polling place during the elections. As the university has sought to expand its student base and campus, residents residing the closest to the university met with Bellarmine representatives on an ad hoc basis to address areas of concern such as street, rather than campus parking, and the building of a stadium in close proximity to houses on an adjoining street. The ad hoc nature of meeting with Bellarmine ceased in 2005 when there was a push by the University to buy houses on the Bellarmine side of Richmond Drive west of Norris and use them as student housing. This was opposed by Deer Park residents, as well as residents in the Belknap neighborhood, and brought before the zoning commission. From this effort, the Good Neighbor Working Group was formed with Bellarmine University to ensure their expansion and plans for growth do not adversely affect the integrity of the neighborhood.
A local landmark is the Bullock-Clifton House, also called the Yunker house, a former farmhouse built in 1834 and located at the corner of Richmond and Rosedale. The imposing structure was described in a 1980 study as "steamboat gothic," and is on the National Register of Historic Places. Early landowners included the Norris, Duker and Stevens families, after whom streets in the neighborhood are named. Two other streets are named after locations in Virginia (Richmond and Roanoke), and Hartman Avenue is named after developer George Hartman, who developed the area in 1914 on what was family property.[1]
The area from Eastern Parkway to Speed Avenue and Fernwood to Bardstown Road is a National Register District,[3] and is also one of the most densely populated areas in Louisville. Since the mid-1970s, all of the somewhat narrow east/west streets here have been one-way, an oddity for a neighborhood relatively far from downtown.
Further contributing to the unusually high density for a neighborhood mostly of single family homes, Deer Park includes two pedestrian courts whose long rows of houses, with no conventional street, are accessible only by alleys and sidewalks running through the short front yards. Ivanhoe Court was built in 1914, and the slightly smaller Maplewood Place a year later in 1915. These types of developments, built during the streetcar suburb era, are apparently unique to Louisville. There are 11 in Old Louisville, but outside of Deer Park only a few others remain today.[4]
The neighborhood has long had more of a middle and working class reputation than surrounding Highlands neighborhoods, which range in character from upper-middle to outright upper class. The reason for this is primarily that Deer Park's housing stock is, other than the Yunker House, decidedly low-key. Due to the lack of geographical obstacles such as steep hills or creeks, the entire neighborhood was developed in a rather uniform and quick manner. Shotgun houses and 2½ story Victorians, more modest than those on the east side of Bardstown Road, make up the majority of the stock in the oldest sections, while modest craftsmen-style houses dominate streets further out, and a few small ranch style homes can be found west of Norris Place. In the north end near Douglass Boulevard is Forest Park, the last of the pre-World War II subdivisions, and the largest of any single development in Deer Park. Larger houses can be found here, many in various historical revival styles.[1]
As of 2000, the population of Deer Park was 4,082,[5] of which 93.7% are white, 3.6% are listed as other, 2% are black, and 0.7% are Hispanic. College graduates are 48.3% of the population, people without a high school degree are 8%. Females outnumber males 51.8% to 48.2%.

AT&T, DirecTV Merger Hearings Underway at the House, Senate
Witnesses have begun explaining the complicated pros and cons of an AT&T-DirecTV merger to House and Senate subcommittees.
AT&T and DirecTV executives told tales of changing times, fast-advancing technologies and underserved Americans in rural areas, as they presented their case for a proposed merger before the U.S. House of Representatives Subcommittee on Regulatory Reform, Commercial and Antitrust Law June 24. After the morning's hearing with the House (which all testimony that follows is from), the merger candidates moved on to an afternoon date with the Senate. Joining AT&T Chairman and CEO Randall Stephenson and DirecTV Chairman and CEO Michael White on the House's witness list were Ross Lieberman, senior vice president of Government Affairs at the American Cable Association, and John Bergmayer, senior staff attorney with consumer advocacy group Public Knowledge. Both White and Stephenson argued that together their companies will do "what neither company can do on its own." They'll offer competitive bundles of services that enable consumers to "watch more of what they want, when they want and where they want"; provide new or faster broadband to at least 15 million consumers, most of them in rural areas; and compete more effectively with cable bundles by creating a "new and unique alternative," said White, who also highlighted a faltering DirecTV.

Born: October 10, 1915 | Died: July 27, 1999
Harry Sweets Edison is one of the few players in the history of jazz trumpet who could be instantly identified after only a few notes; along with Bobby Hackett, he was acknowledged as one of the few master trumpet accompanists.
Born in Columbus, Ohio, Edison moved to Louisville, Kentucky to live with his uncle. It was his uncle who first exposed Edison to music, first teaching him to play a pump organ. Edison later found an old cornet in the house and taught himself scales. He cited early exposure to recordings of Louis Armstrong backing up Bessie Smith as important influences on his playing....

WILMINGTON (AP) — A gun buyback program in
Police and prosecutors joined local churches for the program Saturday. Organizers set aside $4,000 from private donors, planning to pay $100 for handguns, shotguns or rifles and $200 for assault weapons. A total of 67 guns were collected.
Pastor Scott Dodson says plans already are being made for another buyback in several months. Dodson says organizers hope to get corporate sponsors so they can offer more money and get more guns from people who don't want them anymore.
Police will check the guns to see if they are connected to any crimes before destroying them.

First and last of all, service sucks. Sucks, the worst ever in my entire life in NYC of 13 years. Tried most of "fancy" "hot" restaurants in NYC, ok, bar is packed, somewhat classy, good location, something to check out I thought. My friends were not too hungry, so decided to share bigger sized steak, they split it to two, served in two plates, things seemed to be ok.. until the size of the steak was super small (It wasn't HALF of what the steak itself would be) we politely asked, because it was obvious, just saying "each portion looks too small". Floor manager, almost laughed "U guys SHARING steak?" you get the message? He wanted to get away with it, by trying to make us feel bad...(?) about sharing steak, who cares? We were 4, ordered 3 main courses, is it THAT funny? He kept being SOO rude, over "why are you sharing" to "well, if you want bigger piece, you should order another", to "don't know what you want me to do". SO we asked for Manager, he apologized, but the rude guy never did. He, white mid thirty, shorty was the reason we all left, without eating anything, after waiting 30 minutes to get a table. Oh btw, yes we did have reseravtion. Conclusion: Rude restaurant like this, should not survive in NYC. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE where they serve great steak, with great service.

When I asked the waiter if I could have my steak pink-- he became confrontational and arrogant and replied "we do not do medium plus". Really -- there are so many great restaurants in New York that are service oriented and serve good food. Save your self the money--- go elsewhere.

We picked the Strip House for or annual XMAS dinner and when we got there we found people mulling around the entrance looking confused. We entered and were told there had been a fire in the kitchen. We could wait at the bar (at our expense)until the grill was "fired up". Estimated time varied depending on which of the 12 year olds you spoke to. No restaurant management was visible.I go to hamburger places that could handle it better than that! Stay away form the glazier group.

Upon arrival I was blown away by the view from the balcony- many a glass of wine were enjoyed out there. For the money this apartment is fantastic. Very well connected just a 1 minute walk from a big U-Bahn station (the public transport in Berlin is fantastic- the trains all run very very frequently and are not too pricey). The WiFi was a little unreliable during our stay and failed to work at all when on the balcony, unfortunately.
*Note: It is not mentioned in the instructions but when connecting to the WiFi for the first time there is an extra security feature which I only managed to work out after some experimentation. When connecting a new device to the router you have to hold down the WiFi button ON THE ROUTER for about 5-8 seconds. Then try to connect your device AFTER that.

About Entertainment Earth
With an Entertainment Earth coupon, you can geek out to whatever pop culture floats your boat. From the NFL to Iron Man to "Planet of the Apes," the website's mint-condition memorabilia awaits true superfans. For nearly 20 years, the online retailer has hosted an ever-changing selection of more than 18,000 products licensed from the likes of DC Comics and "Doctor Who." Comprised of toys and rare items, Entertainment Earth's inventory ships around the world—"Jurassic Park" lunch boxes and "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." wristwatches included. An Entertainment Earth discount code even helps ornament walls with original artwork, such as hanging-glass prints of Sloth and Chuck from "The Goonies."
In 1995, a trio of collectors began Entertainment Earth in a small San Fernando Valley office and garage. Their website launched a year later, and soon the group needed a warehouse to hold its constantly growing stock of pop-culture collectibles. These days, that selection of licensed items runs in the thousands and covers everything from "Star Wars" action figures to KISS-inspired bobble heads. In addition to smaller ephemerae, rockers shopping with an Entertainment Earth coupon can strap on "Walking Dead" guitars, while pinball wizards can conjure high scores on their very own "Star Trek" machines.
Dedicated fans aren't the only folks to take note of Entertainment Earth's growing empire. Over the years, top publications such as "The Los Angeles Times" and "USA Today" have highlighted the site's available merchandise. The Entertainment Earth team has even expanded beyond their online store by hawking mementos through catalogs, in stores, and at conventions. The company's home remains online, however, where customers can track up-to-date information about the keepsakes they most desire. The Just 1 Left page, for instance, highlights products with only single items remaining. This prevents shoppers from missing their last chance to buy a Wolverine nightlight, the only safe alternative to sleeping next to a real wolverine.
From Wonder Woman snow globes and Hogwarts scarves to WWE headphones and Betty Boop wind chimes, you can showcase any pop-culture obsession by shopping with a Entertainment Earth promo code.

Can the thickness of my nose be fixed with rhinoplasty? (Photo)
My nose is very thick, especially the tip, what can be done to fix this?
Doctor Answers 7
Yes, the width of your nose can be reduced. I would remove some of the nasal tip cartilage and place permanent stitches in between the cartilage of each side of the nose to narrow the tip. You do have thick skin which will limit the tip definition that you can have, but I think that narrowing your tip would be a nice improvement.
In general, patients with thick skin do not always achieve the level of definition they desire with rhinoplasty surgery. However, great improvements can still be made. I would recommend a consult with a board certified rhinoplasty specialist. He or she will be able to evaluate your nose in person and advise you on what techniques would help you obtain the best possible result. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck.
Web reference: http://www.rhinoplastyspecialist.com/
Altering the thickness of the nose with rhinoplasty is very difficult to do. If that is your primary reason for getting rhinoplasty, make sure you see an experienced rhinoplasty expert who can give you different options and realistic outcomes based on a cosmetic procedure that best suits your face.

Yes but special attention to your tip must be done. Best to see boarded rhino docs in your area/city/state IN PERSON..//
Although an examination would provide more information, the photos are suggestive of thick nasal skin. Although refinements can be made to your nasal tip, the results are likely to be limited by the thickness of your nasal skin. I personally prefer an "open approach" in circumstances of a difficult nasal tip. The most critical step for you, as a patient, is to choose a talented Rhinoplasty Surgeon. A Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon or Plastic Surgeon who focuses on Rhinoplasty is a basic requirement
Web reference: http://www.drprendiville.com/rhinoplasty.html
You can definitely gain improved facial balance and pro[portion with a rhinoplasty. Refining the tip might require cartilage grafts for increased support. I prefer the open approach for accuracy and precision, but the close approach is also reasonable. Be sure to consult a surgeon Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. You will want to review a comprehensive portfolio of pre- and post-op pictures.
A closed rhinoplasty can be used to
refine the tip with cartilage reduction and suturing as well as soft tissue thinning. The bridge can be narrowed as well.
Find a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of rhinoplasties and rhinoplasty revisions each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.

Karz (pronunciation: Karz, translation: in-debt) is a 1980 Hindi thriller film directed by Subhash Ghai, starring Rishi Kapoor and Tina Munim as leads, also starring Simi Garewal, in the critically acclaimed role of Kamini Verma, the murderous wife from the past life, which won her a Filmfare nomination.
Film's music was by Laxmikant-Pyarelal, giving successful numbers like, 'Om Shanti Om' and 'Dard-E-Dil', and who went on to win Filmfare Best Music Director Award for this film,the lyricist received two Filmfare nominations for these two hits.
Ravi Verma wins a legal battle against Sir Judah, his dead father's business partner. Shantaprasad Verma, Ravi's dead father, was a rich man in Coonoor, whose property was unjustly usurped by Sir Judah after his death. Ravi gives the good news to his mother, little knowing that Judah has already set contrary plans in action. Ravi has fallen in love with Kamini, a gold-digger working covertly for Judah. Here, Ravi tells his mother that he is going to get married & coming back to get her blessings for him & Kamini. On their way to Coonoor, Kamini throws Ravi off the cliff near a small temple of Goddess Kali.Two decades later, Monty, an orphan raised by G.G.Oberoi, is a twenty one year old singer fond of a tune Ravi liked, which activates some of Ravi's memories subconsciously present in Monty.
Monty soon falls in love with a girl identified later as Tina. While singing a song in his show Monty suffers a nervous breakdown, & is advised a vacation in some remote place. He chooses Ooty (near Coonoor), partly because Tina lives there. There, his inherited memories become intense when he sees all the locations of these memories. Tina tells him that she was brought up by her Rani Sahiba at behest of her uncle Kabira. In truth, Kabira was sentenced to life imprisonment and is about to be released, whereafter Monty wins his permission to court Tina, but learns that Rani Sahiba is Kamini. Kabira later reveals to Monty that Tina's father learnt some deadly secret about the Kali temple, Kamini and Ravi Verma, for which Kamini's brother killed him. In retaliation, Kabira killed Kamini's brother & blackmailed her to raise Tina with proper education, by pretending to know the secret. Monty has also learnt previously that Ravi's mother & his sister were ousted unjustly from their house by Kamini & her brother. He tells the whole story to Kabira, who offers to find Ravi's estranged family, with whom Monty is united. Realizing that Kamini is a puppet of Sir Judah, Monty gradually convinces that Ravi's ghost seeks revenge. Slowly, a rift is caused between her & Sir Judah. Finally, in the local school opened by the Verma family, an inauguration of a hall in the memory of Ravi is planned by the school. Kamini Devi has to do the inauguration. Monty & Tina perform at the function, where they dramatise Ravi's story.
Kamini is horrified to see Ravi's mother & sister, and flees. When Monty confronts her, Kamini confesses to Ravi's murder, which the police record; whereupon Judah captures Ravi's relatives and agrees to release Tina in exchange for Kamini. Just as the exchange is about to take place, Tina attacks Kamini. In the melêe, Kabira & Monty gain an upper hand. Judah tries to burn down Monty's family, but Monty saves them and kills him in a fire. Kamini escapes through the jeep. Pursued by Monty, she attacks him at the temple, but falls to her own death. In the end, Monty marries Tina.

The story of this movie about reincarnation and revenge became the ninth highest grosser of the year, and was declared a "Semi Hit" nationwide.[1] In a 2008 interview, film director, Subhash Ghai admitted that film was ahead of its time, and was thus panned by critics of the times, and "flopped" at the box office, it was only years later that it started being considered a classic and even remade several times over.[5]
The film is also one of the finest films of Subhash Ghai, notable for picturisation of songs like Ek Hasina Thi on stage as well as Dard-E-Dil, and set the standard for his future films, as most of them became known for his dramatic flair, and above all their music score. However, the director Subhash Ghai admitted that Karz was partly inspired by the 1975 American film The Reincarnation of Peter Proud, mixed in with Indian beliefs on reincarnation.[6] In turn, both Karz and The Reincarnation of Peter Proud may have been inspired by the 1958 Hindi film Madhumati.[7] Karz was itself remade several times: as the Kannada film Yuga Purusha (1989), the Tamil film Enakkul Oruvan (1984), and more recently the Hindi film Karzzzz (2008). Karz may have also inspired the American film Chances Are (1989).[7]
Meanwhile, despite the Filmfare Best Music Director Award notwithstanding, films music turned out to be heavily "inspired" in the later years, like the dramatic Ek Hasina Thi was taken from George Benson's As We Love, while Om Shanti Om itself came from Trinidad Calypso artist Lord Shorty's version[6][8][9]
Though the theme of reincarnation was earlier handled in Madhumati (1958), Kudrat (1981), and Mehbooba (1976), the modern twist with murder and revenge angle set in Karz was a pot-boiler; it went on to inspire several other Indian remakes, notably Yuga Purusha (1989) in Kannada, Enakkul Oruvan (1984) in Tamil, Atmabhalam (1985) in Telugu, and the most recent Hindi film Karzzzz (2008) starring Himesh Reshammiya.[8][9]
The songs of the film inspired several film titles, notably Paisa Yeh Paisa (1985), Main Solah Baras Ki (1998), Ek Hasina Thi (2004), Aashiq Banaya Aapne (2006) and Om Shanti Om (2007), which was seen as light-hearted tribute to the film, as it borrowed many elements from it.[10]

Recycline Razors Made from Yogurt Cups
10 Responses to Recycline Razors Made from Yogurt Cups
Ditto. I tried these, they are not good. Gave up after the first shave attempt.. blades are just terrible. shame cause they are so much cheaper than the big brands. :'(
I'm feeling a lot of cognitive dissonance over a disposable product made from 100% recycled plastic.
Wouldn't it be preferable to NOT buy disposable razors to begin with?
Jonathan, you are correct: it would be most optimal to not buy disposable razors at all. But for some they are preferable, so better these than something else! (Or so if they weren't so crap, as others have attested.)
Mailing used products has got to be the most inefficient way to deal with waste. It's just mind-boggingly stupid.
I've got a toothbrush from these guys and echo the comments that it's functionally deficient. The head is too small, the forward bend of the handle awkward , and the neck itself is far too flexible. On the other hand, I love the mission. I hope these guys iron out the kinks.
Although the idea of the recycled cartridges is good–why on earth would anyone buy a disposable razor to begin with? Is it that much of a nuisance to swap out a blade? A good razor handle can last you a lifetime–with your only purchase thereafter being the blades…
Would it be possible to recycle the oil on my face into a new razor?
You could have almost zero waste and no recycling if you used a straight razor. I switched a year ago and like it much better than any multi-blade razor.
It takes a bit of practice and has a higher up-front cost, but a single blade will last a lifetime. It's much harder to cut yourself than hollywood portrays.
Having tried these Preserve razors, I have to say I was disappointed. Unlike most modern razors with disposable blades, the blades on the Preserve don't have a water flow-through space behind the blades. Thus, after only a few swipes they become clogged with hair behind the blade and stop working well. When you try to rinse them with water, the water can't flow around the blades and through the back, so they remain clogged. I tried folding some paper and running it in between the blades, but that starts dulling them. It may be a simple design flaw but, as I said, disappointing. I hope Preserve either fixes the problem or a better competitor comes to market.
Along the same lines as Knifie Spoone, I switched to a double-edge safety razor a while ago. It has a learning curve similar to the single blade razor. One blade for that lasts a week, and can then be discarded/recycled.
Beyond the razor, another way to be slightly greener would be to change your shaving cream. I use a cake soap with a brush. The cake comes in a recyclable cardboard box. That's it for packaging. Additionally, there are no propellants from a can.
On top of all that, I look forward to my shave every morning!
