Nice Italian place with good prices for the quality offered. My recommendation: spaghetti with parmesan cheese and truffle and also the fish was very good!
I suppose one visit to place can't determine how good or bad it is but our experience was not good. We selected the restaurant on the basis of Tripadvisor reports and walked there to book in advance. Perhaps not being able to select a particular table one hour in advance might have given us a clue of what to expect...
Located in centre of Stuttgart just off the Theo Straße close to the University. This Italian is certainly much different than Il Pomodoro. Valle is a bit more fancy than Il Pomodoro but still has very good food & great wine. It is however a bit more up scale. Try the Spaghetti parmigiano with black truffle. If you are looking...
After a long day of working, and a previous dinner plan that didn't pan out, we made our way to this restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised with the kindness of the staff and owner. The prices were also very reasonable! Our group enjoyed a couple of pizzas, some prosciutto warmed around fresh mozzarella, and the salmon with spinach and potatoes....
Food is here above average italian restaurants. After several visits I can recommend pastas but also pizzas and desserts. Winecard is good. Should be reserved.
we have been here for a business dinner, and we had a good meal for an honest price.
food was good, both pizza and starters, as well as main course.
This is a solid restaurant where nearly everything is above average. Food, service are better than you find in other Italian restaurant in the centre, though the wine was poor for what we were charged
It was nice to find this place on a sunday, conveniently right next to where we had parked.. (close to bahnof) The food was excellent and very well priced. Best part was the service. All of the staff sounded like they spoke native Italian, which is a nice touch in an Italian restaurant. Excellent service and patient with my not...
Had dinner here two nights. Very good Italian food and good fresh fish. Every thing was fresh and well prepared. Service was good and servers were friendly. Note it gets quite crowded starting about 1930. Very popular with locals recommend reservations.
Good place in close to the city center. A lot of people. Normal food for friends meeting. Polite staff. Nothing special but seems place is popular.

Thankfully, per usual, Alpina takes the understated and subtle approach for its cosmetic upgrades to … CONTINUED

For the 2014 D3, Alpina utilizes the same powerplant which powers the XD3 and D5 – an inline six-cylinder twin turbo motor. It outpouts 345 HP (257kw) and 516 lb-ft (700 Nm) torque. 0-62mph (100kmh) can be covered by the D3 in 4.6 seconds, … CONTINUED

This toner is said to contain charged water, which is supposedly better at providing immediate hydration to skin. First, in cosmetics, water is water. Your skin cannot tell the difference between charged and uncharged water, and there's no regulation or agreed-upon definition as to what constitutes "charged" water. M.A.C. seems to think charging water with minerals will help, but in truth minerals have minimal benefit for skin when applied topically. They're best ingested, where the body utilizes various enzymes to allow the minerals to function properly. This simply doesn't happen on skin!
As it turns out, the minerals in this toner are fairly drying and potentially irritating, making it much less desirable. The fragrance ingredients (such as limonene and linalool) only add to the threat of irritation, potentially hurting skin's healing process and ability to produce healthy collagen. The diamond powder may sound exciting, but it's really just another way to add shine to skin-care products. The sparkling finish it leaves is likely what M.A.C. means when they state this toner adds radiance and enlivens skin.
Really the only beneficial ingredient in this toner is caffeine, but even that can become problematic when used in higher amounts, as is the case here. Bottom line: this isn't a toner to seriously consider if your goal is improving your skin.
A fusion of Mineralize Charged Water and pure diamond powder. Instantly enlivens, energizes and revitalizes the skin while adding radiance. Keeps skin soft and supple. Refreshing green tea and citrus fragrance.
Water, Butylene Glycol, Caffeine, Diamond Powder, Polysorbate 80, Calcium Chloride, Sodium Sulfate, Magnesium Chloride, Potassium Nitrate, Potassium Phosphate, Fragrance, Linalool, Citral, Limonene, Sodium Benzoate, Phenoxyethanol
M.A.C. At-A-Glance
Strengths: Some impressive moisturizers; excellent Lip Conditioner (lip balm); praiseworthy foundations in a mostly gorgeous range of shades; good concealers; several great powder-based products including blush, bronzer, and eyeshadow in various finishes; noteworthy Fluidline and Technakohl Liner; dizzying array of lipstick shades in mostly sumptuous formulas; impressive Pro Longwear Lipcolour; several very good mascaras (regular and waterproof); top-notch makeup brushes; most of the Prep + Prime products work as claimed.
Weaknesses: A few products with uncomfortably high levels of known or potential skin irritants; some superfluous specialty products; several average pressed and loose powders; the Lustre and Velvet eyeshadows disappoint.
When it comes to skin care you may be tempted to dismiss the small assortment M.A.C. offers and skip right to their makeup with its well-earned positive reputation. But doing so would mean missing a handful of beautifully formulated products that are worth trying. By no means is M.A.C.'s skin-care line one-stop shopping (at least not if you have blemishes, skin discolorations, or require more than a couple options per category), but you'll find more than just the color products impressive here, and the prices aren't unreasonable either!
For more information about M.A.C., owned by Estee Lauder, call (800) 588-0070 or visit www.maccosmetics.com.
M.A.C. Makeup
What more can one say for this long-standing makeup line whose products have spoken eloquently for themselves for years? In many ways, M.A.C. is a pivotal line not only for makeup artists but also for any in-the-know cosmetics consumer. Although M.A.C. has several singularly outstanding products, they generally excel by virtue of the range of choices offered. The color selection for everything from lipsticks to foundations is exceptional. Also, most of the makeup brushes are beautiful, full, and soft, as well as properly sized to fit the contours of the face and eyes. It is typically a pleasure to shop this line, though we wish the tester units (especially for blush, eyeshadow, and lipstick) were arranged by formula and finish rather than by color.
M.A.C.'s salespeople are sometimes trained as makeup artists, too, though being part of the Estee Lauder corporation means they have pressure to meet sales quotas (and no gifts-with-purchase to serve as an enticement). For this reason, you may prefer shopping at one of M.A.C.'s freestanding or Pro stores. The sales pressure is all but absent, the staff tends to be true makeup artists rather than only salespeople, and the stores routinely offer makeup how-to classes, which are both fun and informative.
M.A.C. has launched several state-of-the-art products in recent years. The prime additions are several improved foundations and concealers, superior loose and pressed powders, a couple of mascaras that compete nicely with those from lash-enhancing leader Lancome, buttery-smooth powder blushes, and the very popular (and deservedly so) Pro Longwear Lipcolour. Couple this with their long-standing products that have always performed well and offered neutral shades (Studio Fix, anyone?) and M.A.C. is a force to be reckoned with in the world of department-store makeup. The only disappointment of note is that several of their liquid foundations with sunscreen still lack sufficient UVA protection. Why is it that Lauder-owned Clinique and Prescriptives continually get this critical step right, while Lauder's namesake line, Bobbi Brown, and M.A.C. tend to falter? It's especially upsetting in M.A.C.'s case because the affected foundations otherwise have exemplary textures and a vast palette of neutral shades for fair to dark skin tones. Other than this important point, you really can't go wrong shopping this line, whether you're new to the world of makeup or a seasoned pro.
Note: M.A.C. sets itself apart from other beauty brands by staying ahead of the curve by launching a seemingly-constant rotation of impressive limited edition products, usually with fashion-forward themes. Though it's impossible to review every limited edition product, many of M.A.C.'s are as impressive as those in their permanent collection.
The new Beautypedia Team proudly and unequivocally maintains the commitment to help you find the best products possible for your skin. We do this by relentlessly pursuing and relying on published scientific research so you will have unbiased information on what works and what doesn't-and the sneaky ways you could be making your skin worse, not better!

It may well have been due to efforts such as yours, via writing Jamba's Investor Relations, that Jamba took the step they did today of reiterating their 2011 guidance.
Essentially, the fancy wording in that release is a legally permissible way of saying: "Uh, guys, just a reminder that NOTHING has changed with respect to our business or its prospects, despite the recent share price decline."
Typically, companies only take this step when they believe there has been an unwarranted decline in their share price. After all, if they don't make their targets now, they open themselves up to very public ridicule.
Even though I am overweight JMBA already, I am giving serious thought today about buying even more. I am slowly learning my lesson about "not catching falling knives," which is why I haven't bought any more during this precipitous decline. It may turn out that I missed an opportunity to pick up more shares in the $1.20s, but I know that many experienced investors are of the mind that you are better off missing the first 10-20% of upside and making sure things are actually stabilized.
Sure did, digital postal scale.
did you really weigh it?? I mean you actually took it home and put it on a scale??
I was hoping for Mr. Howell or whatever the rich guy's name was. Given the fact that I was stupid enough to take good money and speculate on this little boat I wish I was just Gilligan. I feel more like Earnest T Bass on the Andy Griffith show. Next time you make a prediction on the stock price I'M LISTENING.... Sometimes in life we have to find out for ourselves that the stove is hot. Other people telling us is not enough. Now that I got my hand burned when you say the stove is hot I will not put my hand on the stove. Since you have a far better handle than most of the puesdo financial analysts on this board, what is the direction of the SS Jamba Minnow?
Cheers and good luck to my high school girls tennis team tomorrow. All seven of my players made it to the big dance.
I believe today is the first day of the 4th quarter. Sounds like we can rely on positive SSS in the 3Q. That essentially locks in a 3Q profit. Not a big surprise but it certainly helps in this market.
I'm also overweight JMBA but have been adding small amounts of shares during this dip.
Hey, thanks for that. I was thinking the end of Q3 would be next Tuesday (10/11), but I just counted 12 weeks from the last quarter and it appears you are exactly correct. I can't wait to see their Q3 results. I really don't think they would have created today's release unless they are quite certain that Q3 is coming in nicely, perhaps better than forecasts.
Unless, of course, they have no egos and enjoy public humiliation and flagellation.
.Jamba, Inc. Reiterates Fiscal Year 2011 Guidance
Expects to Report Fourth Consecutive Quarter of Positive Company-Owned Comparable Stores Sales for Q311
Announces Q311 Earnings Release Date

EMERYVILLE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Jamba, Inc. (NASDAQ:JMBA - News) reiterates its fiscal year 2011 guidance.
For fiscal year 2011 the Company expects to deliver positive Company-owned comparable store sales(1) of 2-4%; achieve adjusted operating profit margin(2) of 18-20%; develop 50-70 U.S. locations in traditional, non-traditional, and express franchise formats; and maintain general and administrative expenses, in dollars (excluding litigation charges and other one-time expenses), consistent with 2010 levels.
"We are pleased with our third quarter sales performance and expect that Q311 will represent our fourth consecutive quarter of positive Company-owned comparable store sales growth. We continue to make solid gains against our strategic initiatives which gives us confidence to reiterate our guidance for FY11," stated James D. White, chairman, president and CEO, Jamba, Inc. "Our actions and achievements are facilitating the transformation of Jamba into a leading health-and-wellness brand."
The naysayers can post all they want about impending bankruptcy, disappointing sales (the coupons were apparently the proof), blah, blah, blah...
The Jamba thesis hasn't changed and the news today reiterated the thesis. I was all in at prices between 85 cents and a dollar long, long ago, and I didn't sell when we went to the high 3s on Starbucks rumors, so i certainly am not selling now at the $1.40s.
I don't have any more money available to invest in stocks now (real estate, gold, and land are my other holdings) or I would buy, and the money that I have in Jamba is not what i need to live on (despite my claim in the letter to IR that i wouldn't be able to afford my smoothies anymore!). I can hold until 2020 if I want to, and that is a luxury that most investors don't have, the freedom to look beyond the next quarter to the coming years.
I don't know if we will drop back down to a buck or go back to twoish, and really I don't care. As stated, I am not buying and not selling. Good luck all.

NZ Scott
Lives in Malaysia, New Zealand (Aotearoa)
Works as a Communications Consultant
Has a website at http://www.flickr.com/photos/scottkmacleod/
Joined on Jul 29, 2011
About me:
Formerly a news reporter for three daily newspapers in New Zealand. I now train English-language teachers in Malaysia - using school holidays for traveling, writing novels/short stories, playing chess and taking photographs.
NZ Scott: I find it disquieting that photographers for the world's biggest camera review website can't take a decent head-and-shoulders pic. The background in the above pic is just awful. I used to be a newspaper journalist, and if any of our photogs came back with a shot like that they would be ... well, they would be shot. It doesn't do much for the credibility of dpreview.com that their photographers can't take photos and they consistently block/shut down threads that criticise their favourite brands.
jkoch2: I wasn't talking about that photo. I was talking about the mugshot at the top.

Kund: Can someone plz explain what does "push the envelope" mean, for the non native English speakers?
It's basically just a meaningless business-speak term for trying to improve in various ways. You're not missing anything by not understanding it.
Great shot, and nicely processed. Well done.
No filter thread on the new 7-14 ...
That means I can't buy it. I'll have to get a 9-18 instead, which doesn't go wide enough for me.
Sony's NEX system has an ultrawide starting at 15mm (ff equivalent) that takes filters and only weighs a couple of hundred grams.
Why can't Oly/Panny do the same?
Some great shots in there, but also some some that are either weak or cliched, namely:
Numbers 3 and 7 are average shots that I would certainly not rank among the best shots of the year.
Numbers 8 and 10 are great shots, but are cliched. I have seen similar shots of the same subjects before as finalists in photo competitions. The buffalo race is a perenial favourite among action phogographers, and a photo of the Indian bridge won a competition a year or two ago.
I'm a bit disappointed as I have some great shots from Malawi and Botswana, both of which are straddled by some of the countries in this challenge. Will Malawi and Botswana be included in future challenges?
Mirrorless Crusader: Obvioiusly no coincidence that there isn't a single Canikon product that could even win its own category. Of course it doesn't help that Canikon has no idea how to do mirrorless, though it's not long they ever had a ghost of a chance to win that category no matter what they did, considering the E-M1 and A7R,
Marike: "As far as these silly polls, truth be told the D7100 blows the socks of any of the crop sensor mirrorless cameras for IQ, AF performance and video".
IQ: The D7100 has roughly equivalent IQ to the E-M1 and NEX cameras
AF. The D7100 has better continous AF, but mirrorless cameras have more accurate S-AF.
Video: The top-range M43 Panasonic cameras are acknowledged as being some of the best on the market for video. Some professionals are even using them for feature films.
"mirrorless vendors keep trying to think of more ways to make cameras smaller, less ergonomic ..."
The leading camera in the poll - the E-M1 - is essentially last year's E-M5 repackaged to be more ergonomic, with a bigger grip and better placement of controls. Panasonic's G-series cameras have similar layout to a DSLR.
Lucas_: What happened to the outstanding Sony A7R/A7? AFAIK they're launched in 2013 and blew the socks off any other mirrorless camera ( and many DSLR/SLTs, only loosing in AF speed ). Are they being considered 2014 models?
Anyway, if those two were not considered, I'd vote for for the Olympus OM-D E-M1, with a close second for the Sony RX100II. I don't think I'd buy the Oly though, it should be at least 20MP.
I've read two separate comparative reviews of the E-M1 versus an A7 and in both instances the E-M1 was preferred. These were pro/advanced enthusiast reviews.
There's more to a camera than just the sensor size.
Cameralabs: :For me the combination of quicker handling, built-in stabilisation and plenty of native lenses makes the EM1 a better all-round camera for most people".
jtimouri: I bought the camera, but returned it.
1) Camera is tiny, but surprisingly "sticky" to grip.
2) My Lumix point and shoot has an On/Off switch that easily shifts to On when it is in a pocket. The GM1 On/Off switch looks like it is better in this regard. A person commented here though that at least one other switch was too easy to turn on.
3) I returned the camera for two reasons. First, I bought the all black version. I did not like the build quality looking down at the top of the camera. It did not look as nice as my old point and shoot Lumix F100. Second, it is great to produce a tiny camera, but I don't see the point if the battery charger is almost the same size as the camera. This is especially true if battery life is an issue. I am sure there is a good reason for that, but it just turned me off.
4) Having a traditional lens cap on the GM1 makes it less suitable for sticking in a pocket for quick access. A lever on the lens to manually control lens protection would be great.
I can sympathise with his viewpoint about the battery charger. I do a lot of travelling, and a bulky charger can almost double the amount of space a camera takes up in your luggage.
I travel with an Olympus E-P3, and in my opinion the charger (a box-type charger with detachable cable) takes up too much space. M43 manufacturers should make their chargers as small as possible, with folding plug-prongs built into the charger box.
My old Canon Ixus 40 had a tiny charger. Of course, it was charging a smaller battery, but the size of the charger relative to the battery was much smaller than most M43 chargers.
The main advantage of M43 over DSLRs is size and weight. Panasonic and Olympus should be trying to maximise this advantage not only with regards to cameras and lenses, but also with the chargers and other accessories.
... but not Pakistan?
A striking shot. Well done.
white shadow: I am looking for an excellent APS-C size mirrorless camera which can out perform a micro 4/3 camera in overall usage. The numerous succession of NEX has not been successful due to its poor lens collection and its "unfriendly" photographer user interface / Menu system. The Fuji X series could offer some hopes. However, it too falls short of expectation in many areas, many of which were pointed out in the reviews.
I like the size of the X-M1 but the slow AF speed and many other compromises cause me to hesitate buying this camera despite it getting a gold award.
Some has attributed the other problems to the X-trans sensor which I wouldn't disagree.
I agree with photobeans.
You're not going to get an noticeable increase in image quality by moving from a Micro Four Thirds to an APS-C sensor. You really need to go to full frame for that.
If you're not willing to go full-frame then just buy a Micro Four Thirds or NEX camera and be done with it.
If you have specific lens requirements then you're probably better off with Micro Four Thirds. Otherwise, NEX is also very good.
Graham Hill: No electronic level? Are you kidding Fujifilm?
I have an electronic level in my E-P3 and use it constantly.
Jonathan Parker Smith junior: Aesthetically pleasing lens, it literally oozes the quality an aristocrat demands. I can see it will be perfect for photographing the hounds during fox hunting season, or sharing pictures of the latest acquisition to my extensive pre-18th century art collection. Jolly good show Olympus!
But Jonathan, are the Japs any better than the huns?
ntsan: 150-300mm F2.8, I know I can dream
Also, the upcoming 40-150 f2.8 zoom will be equivalent to 80-300mm f5.6 with a 2x teleconverter.
olyflyer: So, is this like an official announcement of the end of FT? No more mirrored DSLR from Olympus.
Another thing... Why wait until end of 2014? Come on, is Olympus really so busy? Haven´t we seen similar lens "release notes" before? What's the point in fooling people to wait for something which may never come, like the Olympus 90mm macro lens? Or was it 100mm? I don't remember any more. OK, I know what the point is... to make them buy the products and wait... and wait... and wait...
There's already an outstanding M. Zuiko 60mm f2.8 Macro (same reach as 120mm on full-frame), not to mention the Panasonic 45mm f2.8 Macro. Photo nuts, why do you need 90mm?
Joe Ogiba: Olympus fast Pro F2.0 4/3rd zooms on Amazon :
Olympus Zuiko 14-35mm f/2.0 Digital ED SWD Lens for Olympus Digital SLR Cameras :
Olympus 35-100mm f/2.0 Zuiko Lens for E Series DSLR Cameras :
Actually, the ZD SHG lenses are among the best zooms available on any format - certainly above "low-end L".
I agree that it's not efficient (in terms of size and weight) to mount APS-C lenses on an m43 body.
Makes me homesick.
And hungry.

A Concise History of Spain (Cambridge Concise Histories)by William D., Jr. Phillips
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
The dramatic one-thousand-year history of Jews in Spain comes to life in Exiles in Sepharad. Jeffrey Gorsky vividly relates this colorful period of Jewish history, from the era when Jewish culture was at its height in Muslim Spain to the horrors of the Inquisition and the Expulsion.
Twenty percent of Jews today are descended from Sephardic Jews, who created significant works in religion, literature, science, and philosophy. They flourished under both Muslim and Christian rule, enjoying prosperity and power unsurpassed in Europe. Their cultural contributions include important poets; the great Jewish philosopher Moses Maimonides; and Moses de Leon, author of the Zohar, the core text of the Kabbalah.
But these Jews also endured considerable hardship. Fundamentalist Islamic tribes drove them from Muslim to Christian Spain. In 1391 thousands were killed and more than a third were forced to convert by anti-Jewish rioters. A century later the Spanish Inquisition began, accusing thousands of these converts of heresy. By the end of the fifteenth century Jews had been expelled from Spain and forcibly converted in Portugal and Navarre. After almost a millennium of harmonious existence, what had been the most populous and prosperous Jewish community in Europe ceased to exist on the Iberian Peninsula.
Engaging history of the rich cultural, social and political life of Spain from prehistoric times to the present.
Concise survey of Spain's complex history from prehistoric times to the present that focuses particularly on culture, society, politics, and personalities. Written in an engaging style and using illustrations, maps and guides to further reading, it introduces readers to the key themes that have shaped Spain's rich history and culture.
The rich cultural and political life of Spain has emerged from its complex history, from the diversity of its peoples, and from continual contact with outside influences. This book traces that history from prehistoric times to the present, focusing particularly on culture, society, politics, and personalities. Written in an engaging style, it introduces readers to the key themes that have shaped Spain's history and culture. These include its varied landscapes and climates; the impact of waves of diverse human migrations; the importance of its location as a bridge between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean and Europe and Africa; and religion, particularly militant Catholic Christianity and its centuries of conflict with Islam and Protestantism, as well as debates over the place of the Church in modern Spain. Illustrations, maps, and a guide to further reading, major cultural figures, and places to see, make the history of this fascinating country come alive.

2012 Louisville Depth Chart
What you need to know:
Head coach Charlie Strong's expertise is on defense, as if that wasn't patently obvious in his first two years on the job. His Cardinals have overachieved with average talent inherited from the Steve Kragthorpe era, finishing 17th nationally in scoring D a year ago. Now that Strong has been able to attract a better caliber player over the last three years, expectations are higher than ever in Louisville. The Cards are going to be aggressive, hard-hitting and fundamentally-sound, trademarks of this staff's units over the years. While some key players from a year ago, like LB Dexter Heyman and linemen Greg Scruggs and William Savoy, need to be replaced, Louisville feels it has enough up-and-comers and proven veterans to fill the voids. S Hakeem Smith, CB Adrian Bushell and LB Preston Brown are the established upperclassmen. DE Marcus Smith, NT Jamaine Brooks, LB Deionterez Mount and FS Calvin Pryor are just a few of the young players preparing for their breakout years.

Weakness of the defense:
Results from the secondary, takeaways
Defensive Line
One thing that's become clear under Charlie Strong is that the coach and his assistants know how to develop defensive linemen. In the first two years, the staff has done a solid job of transforming average recruits. Now, it's attracting a better caliber player to Louisville. One of the stalwarts on the inside will be 6-3, 290-pound DT
Roy Philon
who has started 10 games in his first two seasons. He's quick off the ball, yet thick enough to stuff the run, leading the team's D-linemen a year ago with 36 tackles, six coming behind the line. The junior has packed on more weight to help handle the rigors of playing in the trenches.
The program is excited about its options at nose tackle. Junior
Brandon Dunn
is a steady veteran, with a pair of letters and eight starts from 2011 on his resume. However, sophomore
Jamaine Brooks
has nudged ahead in the battle to start. The 6-4, 330-pounder worked his way into the rotation a year ago, making 13 tackles and three stops for loss. A classic space-eater, who moves well laterally, he has 45 pounds on Dunn, which will make it difficult to move him out of the play.
At one defensive end spot, the team is banking on a big year from sophomore
B.J. Dubose
. Now up to 6-4 and 273 pounds, he has the size to play strongside to go along with enough quickness to collapse the pocket. He started three games as a rookie, making 22 tackles, 3.5 stops for loss and three sacks.
Creating a lot of buzz at Fox End is 6-4, 256-pound junior
Marcus Smith
, a well-traveled member of the program. He arrived as a dual-threat quarterback, moved to linebacker and has settled in nicely as a pass rusher. Still learning, he made five starts in 2011, collecting 6.5 tackles for loss and team-best 5.5 sacks. Once he refines his technique and gets more comfortable at the position, he's liable to become the breakout star of the defense.
And if Smith hits a wall in his growth, the Cardinals can always turn to 6-2, 275-pound junior
B.J. Butler
, a top recruit from the 2010 class. He's a terrific all-around athlete, with the explosive get-off to harass opposing passers. His slip in production a year ago to just 15 tackles, two stops for loss and 1.5 sacks had more to do with a nagging, season-long injury than an inability to excel at the job.
Watch Out For ....
a very deep rotation to help keep everyone fresh. Proper recruiting and player development has positioned Louisville to go two-deep up front, a luxury that every FBS program covets. Not only is the first team rich in talent, but the staff will expect no drop-off when the No. 2's trot onto the field.
Generating a push. With so many lettermen returning, the Cards plan to pick up where they left off in 2011, when they were No. 10 nationally in run defense and 21st in sacks. Packed with good speed and great motors, Louisville will continue to win the all-important battle at the line of scrimmage.
The other end position. The Cards are set at Fox with Smith and Butler, but what happens if opposing teams feel comfortable doubling one of the two? It's important that Dubose and his backup, sophomore
Lorenzo Mauldin
, make the other guys think twice about committing too many resources to Smith and Butler.
The names may not be familiar to the casual fan, but the results are going to be notable this fall. The Cardinals have their best collection of D-line talent in the Strong era, a nice mix of size, quickness and want-to. Best of all? Of the 10 linemen on the roster, not one is a senior, meaning even better results lay ahead in 2013.
While it won't be easy replacing last year's man in the middle, all-star Dexter Heyman, the Cards really like the talent their producing on the second level. Junior
Preston Brown
is expected to make the shift inside after starting 11 games at strongside. He made 84 tackles, five behind the line, setting the stage for what promises to be a very productive second half to his career. At 6-2 and 257 pounds, he's a prototypical linebacker in the Charlie Strong system, big enough to holds his ground at the point of attack, yet plenty quick going from sideline to sideline. Brown plays with the kind of versatility and physicality that Alabama's Nick Saban also craves at the position.
Taking over for Brown at strongside will be sophomore
Deionterez Mount
, a terrific prospect with the long frame that will handle additional weight if needed. The 6-5, 243-pounder is a thoroughbred from the second level, using his burst and extended gait to make up ground en route to the backfield. Although he appeared a little overwhelmed as a rookie, making just 10 tackles, the five starts he earned will help immensely in Year No. 2.
The favorite at weakside, 6-1, 234-pound senior
Daniel Brown
, is looking to rebound from a disappointing junior year. One season after being a dynamic playmaker, he started only six, and made just 39 tackles and four stops for loss. With the recruiting class brought in by Strong in February, Brown will need to recapture his old big-play form in order to fend off the challenge of yet another Brown, 6-1, 229-pound true freshman
Keith Brown
, a four-star recruit from Miami. He enrolled in classes in January, and has gotten a jump start by taking part in his first spring camp.
Watch Out For ....
the rookies. Strong put together one of the nation's best hauls at linebacker on this latest Signing Day. And it wasn't just Brown. Three-star outside linebacker
James Burgess
also participated in spring, and four-star inside linebacker
Nick Dawson
arrives in August. It would surprise few if all three didn't earn letters in 2012.
Big bodies. As it stands now, the starters are going to average just under 6-3 and 245 pounds on opening day. In other words, this group is going to possess the strength and thickness to hold up against the run, shedding blockers and sifting through traffic in order to hunt down the man with the ball.
Third downs. The Cards still have a lot to prove in pass coverage this fall. Size will not be an issue, but reading the pass and blanketing receivers will still be a chore as Brown adjusts to a new position inside and Mount gets accustomed to being a full-timer for the first time.
This group will still be somewhat raw, especially when the rookies start being injected into the rotation, but they're going to make a bunch of money plays when they pin their ears back. At its core, this collection of defenders is going to be athletic, tenacious and well-coached by Strong and his assistants.
After taking a positive step in pass defense, the Louisville secondary still has a ways to go before placating the coaching staff. Fortunately, five players with starting experience are back to try and help make a trying situation better. Oddly enough, the Cards did produce a pair of First Team All-Big East performers in 2011.
One of the star performers, junior SS
Hakeem Smith
, has become the mainstay of the defensive backfield since debuting as a Freshman All-American and the Big East Rookie of the Year in 2010. As an encore last fall, he delivered 84 stops and team-highs with nine pass breakups and three forced fumbles. The 6-1, 180-pounder does so many things well for this group, wrapping up in the open field, and stepping up in coverage.
The program's other all-star from the secondary, 5-11, 184-pound senior
Adrian Bushell
will use 2012 as an audition for NFL scouts. An instant hit in his first year after transferring from Florida, he was a playmaker on defense and special teams. He has superior athleticism to go along with improving cover skills, a challenging combination for opposing receivers. A year after making 50 stops, picking off a pass and blocking two kicks, his output is set to spike.
Smith's partner over at free safety will be hard-hitting sophomore
Calvin Pryor
who really distinguished himself in his rookie year. An active 6-1, 210-pounder, he started the final seven games, making 43 tackles, three stops for loss, two forced fumbles, two picks and five pass breakups. He has an exciting future ahead in Louisville.
Opposite Bushell, sophomore
Andrew Johnson
is going to be on the hot seat at the other cornerback position. The precocious 5-10, 178-pounder from Miami started nine games in 2011, chipping in 25 tackles and four pass breakups. One of the fastest players on the roster now needs to fine-tune his coverage skills at this level. At corner, fellow sophomores
Terell Floyd
Jordon Paschal
both lettered last fall, providing a basis for more playing time this season.
Watch Out For ....
Louisville's opponents to try and target Johnson' side of the field. The attack strategy makes sense since Bushell has emerged as one of the league's top cover guys, and Johnson is still wet behind the ears. If No. 15 can handle the extra attention, the Cardinals will be poised to surge forward in pass defense.
Run support. The Cardinals defensive backs are a physical and assertive group that's taught to fill gaps quickly and wrap up in the open field. The safeties will pack a punch like linebackers, and the cornerbacks are not afraid to mix it up or take on bigger players.
The results. Louisville has a decent amount of talent in the secondary, including two first team league all-stars. However, the results remain unseemly. Last year's squad yielded twice as many touchdown passes as interceptions made, and too often allowed receivers to get behind it.
There are concerns, to be sure, but there's simply too much returning talent on the last line of defense for Louisville not to be improved in pass defense this fall. Smith and Bushell will be the anchors at safety and cornerback, respectively. Pryor and Johnson are rising fast, and looking to play with a lot more consistency than they did as rookies in 2011.
Special Teams
The program has lost very few players to graduation this year. Special teams is an exception. With the departure of Chris Philpott, Louisville must develop a new placekicker and punter. Getting a long look at kicker will be redshirt freshman
Andrew Fletcher
, who edged ahead of the competition. He showed good pop in high school, but still needs to improve his accuracy, especially in clutch situations.
In the race at punter, sophomore
Ryan Johnson
has built some distance on redshirt freshman
John Wallace
. Johnson, a local walk-on, will spend the summer attempting to improve his hang time in order to hold off the competition.
The staff will use August to decide on its rotation in the return game. Sophomore
Eli Rogers
and senior
Scott Radcliff
will go head-to-head on punt returns. The candidates to return kicks are junior
Senorise Perry
and senior
Adrian Bushell
Watch Out For…
the competition at kick returner to be brisk. Perry and Bushell both showed an ability to bust through the wedge last fall, with the latter returning one kick 100 yards. The pair possesses the burst and acceleration to be positive components of the special teams unit.
Covering punts. The staff is not bashful about putting some of its best athletes on the punt coverage team, allowing them to fly down the field with reckless abandon. The result last season was a nation's-best seven total yards allowed on 13 returns.
Kick coverage. As good as the special teams was in punt coverage, it was equally bad containing kickoffs. In fact, for the second year in a row no team in the Big East was more generous, allowing almost 24 yards a touch.
There is lots and lots of uncertainty pertaining to this group, which could cost the Cardinals a crucial game or two in 2012. The return game and coverage units are mixed, solid on punts, yet shaky on kickoffs. And there's no telling what to expect from Fletcher and Johnson in their first seasons as the regular kicker and punter, respectively.
