Zombie lends his voice to Puppy Rescue Mission campaign
Last summer, while on the Mayhem tour, Rob Zombie met up with the folks at the Puppy Rescue Mission charity – which helps dogs rescued by soldiers while on their tour of duty – animals that not only give the soldiers much needed bonds, but whom have also saved the soldiers. Said Rob of the campaign last year: "… soldiers in Afghanistan would find these dogs and bond with them and sneak them on the bases, even though they weren't supposed to have them. It was probably the only moment of sanity for these guys, when they spent time with them….But they weren't allowed to take them home, and if they could, it was so expensive. That was a cause I could really understand and get behind."
To that end he has narrated a video campaign, directed by Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival documenter Strati Hovartos, to bring more light on this wonderful charity. The video features a cast of active duty and veteran warriors.

How to Replace Bad Column Wood
Learn how to take the bad wood from the original porch column and replace it with new.
First, remove and decorative brackets and/or railing from the rotted porch column. Use carbide scrapers and/or silent paint remover to scrape away paint, exposing the nails. Use a hammer and pry bar to loosen the brackets and balustrade.
Begin by cutting supports for the existing porch roof before taking the post out. Use 2x6s for the supports, and 2x4s for the stakes that will be used in the ground. Cut one brace to support the porch from the front, then cut another brace to support from the side and cut a third that can temporarily replace the post after it's removed.

I've been a publishing lawyer for over 20 years, and at Penguin since 2008. I love to taunt other lawyers by saying things like, "Why yes, I do get paid to read novels all day." Actually most of my novel reading gets done after hours, on the LIRR. Here are some recent faves:
Lena Finkle's Magic Barrel, by Anya Ulinich
Who says graphic novels have to be about super heroes (although some of us may regard Lena Finkle as one)? This wonderfully immersive story lets you experience what Lena's life just as she does—saying one thing out loud and thinking something else at the same time. In this age of multi-media, it's a pleasant surprise to see how "interactive" two dimensions can be. Best enjoyed in paper.
A Working Theory of Love, by Scott Hutchins
Did you like the movie "Her?" Do you worry about whether/how much we can be replaced by robots? Do you believe in reincarnation? If you ponder any of these questions, this book is for you. It juxtaposes our most human hopes and fears alongside the possibility of the most advanced technology. Technology marches inexorably toward us, but the human heart beats on.
We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves, by Karen Joy Fowler
If you can, get someone to rip the cover off this book before you read it (or advance your ereader past the cover page) and don't read a single thing about it. I read this after it was announced as the winner of the 2014 Pen/Faulkner Award with no other knowledge about it. At first I thought I'd "gotten" it right away. Then it took a turn I didn't see coming and I had to take a break and send copies to my two best friends so that they would read it along with me.
Shirley: A Novel, by Susan Scarf Merrell
Who among us lovers of literary fiction has not imagined what it would have been like to hang around with our favorite authors of the mid-20th Century? You know, when authors were revered, and their lives were private. Susan Scarf Merrell took it one step further. After mining archives including letters and journals, she re-creates the world of author Shirley Jackson and her husband Stanley Edgar Hyman, inserting a fictional couple into their life. Step inside this novel and see what happens when a writer asks herself "what if…"
Everything I Never Told You, by Celeste Ng
Where can a book that begins with tragedy go? A teenage girl is dead; it's not a place I really want to visit. And yet Celeste Ng captivates page by page. She's never maudlin or melodramatic. Instead she unfolds this sad story in such a way that makes us appreciate her characters and want to see how they will make sense of what's happened. Even though you know the ending won't change the beginning—this isn't a book about miracles—you will not want to abandon this family.
The Good Lord Bird, by James McBride
I want to make a special plug for the audio version of this one. This book is full of outrageous characters speaking in dialect circa the 1850s, and hearing it brings it to life in a way that most of us can't possibly create in our 21st Century minds. Sometimes it's hard to believe that there can be a new way to tell an oft-told tale, but this narrator tells us story of John Brown's fight against slavery in a way that makes the whole story completely fresh and new. This is neither middle school social studies nor "costume drama" historical fiction—it is vital, moving, thought provoking and raucous. Listen to it and you will see the story unfold in your mind's eye as if you were watching the year's Best Picture.

I am having same thing happened to me.. I got off nuva ring the end of June. In July I had my period my normal day the 14th for 7 days like i always have. In August I had a period 14th it was light and lasted only 2 days which I've never done before. I took pregnancy tests and all neg. So I waited for my period this month(September).

And today the 12 I'm still bleeding some.the blood was bright watry red and then turn just red without the watery look to it.

Hi I'm new to theses sites but if any advice would be great, I have a normal period every month 27-28 day cycle last period was 20th July an app that I use said I ovulated on the 2nd August which me and my husband had sex on that day and a few days either side. On 8th August when I went to the bathroom there was a pink on the toilet paper this has happened now for 7 days on and off sometimes it's pink sometimes browney sometimes nothing's there at all there hasn't been any need to wear a panty liner as nothing is on my under wear it's only when I wipe iv had back ache for a few days a few cramps my belly being making a lot of growling noises at night and iv been having very vivid dreams. I'm due on in 2 days iv took tests but all come back negposted 08/14/2015 by a BabyCenter Member
My period was due on the 16th July but it never came. On the 21st July I started getting brown spotting mainly when I wiped otherwise very rarely on my undies. It is now 24th July and it's still here. I've taken 2 pregnancy tests and both come up positive. I'm just a little confused as normally implantation bleeding happens BEFORE your period. Can anyone help me! What does this mean? Thank youposted 07/23/2015 by a BabyCenter Member
Yeah it did sounds like implantation bleeding. The timing of a positive pregnancy test depends on implantation. If you are pregnant, a urine pregnancy test is not expected to be positive until 3-4 days after implantation (at the very earliest), which is about 10 days after ovulation/fertilization and 4 days before the next period. About 51% of pregnant women have a positive pregnancy test 2 days before their next expected period. A repeatedly negative pregnancy test and a missed period mean that you are not pregnant; a negative pregnancy test a week or more after your missed period indicates that your chance of being pregnant is less than 1-2%. A positive pregnancy test usually means that you are pregnant. I would highly recommend this book from http://pregnancyhours.com not only for women who have tried everything else, but for those women who haven't started trying everything yet, and those who are pursuing medication and/or surgical treatments to get pregnant.posted 07/05/2015 by a BabyCenter Member
Hello mom's! Can you help me? My expected period was supposed to be today. Precious to today, I spotted for 2 days, dark brown blood, very light. This morning, day of my excepted period, I have brighter blood, still not quite enough to fill a whole light pad, but close. And just started to feel some cramping. I have been slightly nauseous for two weeks. Negative pregnancy test today. Does it sound like implantation bleeding or a weird period? Thank you!posted 07/05/2015 by a BabyCenter Member

London Knights' forward Christian Dvorak has received that elusive second chance at making a first impression on NHL Draft gurus, returning sooner than expected from an ACL injury to suit up for the Knights at the 2014 MasterCard Memorial Cup.
2014 Memorial Cup: Storm raining goals down on opponents in London
It was a long-weekend in Canada, but you could forgive the 2014 MasterCard Memorial Cup host London Knights if they didn't feel in the mood for celebrating. In fact, a noted lack of fireworks so far has left London with a very real risk of being relegated to the role of gracious host as opposed to conquering heroes in front of their 8,900-plus fans at the Budweiser Gardens.
2014 Memorial Cup: Knights gearing up after month away from live action
All year long, the London Knights talked about how, despite a guaranteed berth in the 2014 Memorial Cup Tournament as the host squad, the team wanted to enter the tournament through the proverbial front door. When the Guelph Storm slammed that door shut with a 4-1 series victory on April 11th, it changed the way the team needed to approach the finals.
ISS Draft Rankings: Reinhart, Ekblad tighten hold on top slots
The calendar has flipped over to May, but the top 10 in the ISS Hockey ranking of the 2014 NHL Draft prospects looks an awful lot like the top of the order in April's rankings.

Posted by ESPN.com's Graham Watson
Idaho starting quarterback Nate Enderle will be a game-time decision for Saturday's matchup with No. 6 Boise State.
Enderle, who missed last week's loss to Fresno State, is still recovering from a rotator cuff injury he suffered a couple of weeks ago.
"We're not going to know on Nate until game time at the earliest," Idaho coach Robb Akey said during the WAC coaches' teleconference. "He's progressing, his shoulder's getting better. We're hopeful to have him, but it's going to be a day-by-day thing. If the day by day goes well, if he progresses, then I could be happy by the time Saturday goes around."
Sophomore Brian Reader started against Fresno State and nearly led the Vandals to a come-from-behind victory. He threw for 240 yards and two touchdowns in the game. He also rushed four times for 11 yards and a score.
Akey has said all season that the competition at quarterback is something that has pushed Enderle to be as good as he's been this year and that the team has total confidence Reader if he is the starter.
"Our guys believe in him; I believe in him," Akey said of Reader. "We've got two good quarterbacks. We've been fortunate in that respect. We've got a hell of a starter and a hell of a backup. And Brian, for example, he came in and took us on the drive to win at San Jose. And he made some great plays and throws [against Fresno State]. He was the guy leading our offense in the rally in the second half. Our football team did not operate as if there was any difference. They had confidence that Brian was going to get the job done."

Anybody but Hillary !!!
Anybody but Hillary !!!
But the volume has been anemic
They need to just go away
Big reversal in overall markets today, and tomorrow should see a big squeeze across the board.Looking for a couple of days rally and then I'm going to dump some shares. For some reason, klic sure likes this 11.38 spot
How could anybody with a brain walk into a voting booth and vote for this #$%$ !
Wrong again
Just crossed paths . Tna broke the 200 dma yesterday and held. 55 should be easy
Thats supposed to be the 50 day
I trade lam all the time, but got out at 75. Didn't think we would get this latest push without a retest of the lows. It might be the best equip company out there . Lam klac and nvls all in one. Now if they would just buy ilic
Have we seen the market go up , and keep going up, just because it can. I've been saying it along time, that earnings don't matter anymore, if they ever did . They have lowered estimates time after time, then they spin it, that its all bout the future and 6 months out. Then when the 6 months get here the earnings estimates have been lowered to meet the agenda. Earnings have been going down for a year , and this quarter might be the worse, but the market is marching back to new highs. 6 weeks ago we were going into a recession, now everything is just rosy again. S&P pe's are high, earnings are low , yet the market goes up everyday, everything except klic of course. How long can it last this time ?
Wow, thanks for your wisdom even though its irrelevant to what I posted
Thats exactly what I was trying to do, but I guess I just read it as sarcasm , myself
Earnings across the board have been bad, outlooks guided flat to down. Msft down 5% , cat down, google down 35 pts, and the futures are up . Go figure
I used to trade this a lot and do pretty well, but lately the only time it moves is when they report earnings, and then it just sits there for 3 more months. Used to have good swings, so now its just a hold instead of a tradeable
Buying their own shares giving the illusion that someone wants to buy this at 52 week highs, with a declining environment
You think somebody knew about earnings a day early ? Twice the volume and up almost 4%

The West Coast appears to be the best coast—for stock-picking, that is. As has been the case since mid-2011, most of the big-name Wall Street banks have been bested by Western regional brokerages in our semi-annual Barron's-Zacks ranking of their stock selections.
Tops in the latest contest is little McAdams Wright Ragen, whose focus list took first place in the six months through December, with a 13.8% return. For the third time in a row, the Seattle-based broker won the 60-month race, too, producing a 38% return. (See table below.) Those two results dusted the S&P's 5.95% and 8.59% returns over the six-month and five-year stretches.
Says Sid Parakh, McAdam Wright Ragen's acting research director: "Many of the companies we put on the list we never covered previously." Josh Gray for Barron's
McAdams rounded out its strong showing by garnering second place in the other two rankings, returning 18% for 12 months and 43% over 36 months. Its scores are all the more impressive as they cover both a bear- and a bull-market period. Not too shabby.
Los Angeles-based Wedbush Securities finished at the top of the 36-month ranking, though it did slip back from stronger finishes in the past two rankings. Nevertheless, like McAdams, Wedbush accomplished a "three-peat," taking home the three-year gold medal for the third consecutive time, with a 73% return that smoked its nearest competitor and the S&P's 36%.
The L.A.-based broker also had decent 12- and 60-month showings. Over six months, however, its 3% return trailed both that of the average broker and the market.
Every six months, Barron's and Zacks rank the best stock picks, or focus lists, of America's stock brokers, some of them famed Wall Street names, others less well known.
While Goldman Sachs GS -0.33735240832135943% Goldman Sachs Group Inc.

Goldman's "conviction list," as it's called, returned 19%, besting both the total returns of the average broker and the market.
In general, our surveys have indicated that the average broker tends to outpace the market during bullish phases, as was the case in 2009 and 2010 and the last half of 2012. In the more uncertain times of 2011 and 2012's first half, that's not always the case.
In the one- and three-year contests, the benchmark index outpaced the brokers. But in 2012's final six months, the average broker's gain of 7% beat the S&P 500's advance. However, since mid-2011, the average broker's focus list's returns haven't kept up with the broad market.
CHANGES IN FORTUNE among a couple of sectors last year made stock-picking treacherous, and brokers who skillfully navigated the shifting currents did well. "Energy was a real downer" in the first half, recalls Zacks equity strategist Tracey Ryniec. In fact, it was the period's worst sector, off 3.4%, versus the market's 8.3% rise. Yet in the second half, energy—led by refiners—rose 6%, topping the market's 4.7% price return and 5.95% gain with dividends.
Tech and health care, she adds, were the mirror images of energy. They climbed 13% and 10%, respectively, in the first half, but weakened in the second, with health care matching the market, and tech up less than 1%.
What's perhaps most unusual about McAdams Wright Ragen's success is that it employs only five stock analysts and, unlike the large banks and even some other regional brokers, doesn't cover every sector. "We don't look at sectors, we look at stocks," says Sid Parakh, McAdam's acting director of research. The Pacific Northwest broker favors just 20-25 names at any time, and "many of the companies we put on the list we never covered previously," he adds. Parakh says these companies are in good businesses, have attractive valuations, strong managements, and solid balance sheets.

Wedbush, which like McAdams, doesn't cover every sector, focuses on life sciences, technology, consumer goods, and industrials.

For example, Pharmacyclics (PCYC), a biopharma hematology firm, is up more than 300% since joining the list in December 2011. Phase 2 trials for ibrutinib, Pharmacyclics' promising drug for chronic lymphocytic leukemia, recently showed good results. The stock closed Thursday at $69.17; Wedbush has a $110 price target on it.

Honorable mentions again go to regional broker Edward Jones, a silver medalist in the 60-month contest. The St. Louis-based firm's picks returned 18%, beating the average broker's selections and the market.
Edward Jones has been a consistent proponent of the conservative buy-and-hold strategy involving large-cap, quality stocks that pay growing dividends. Dave Powers, the brokerage's director of equity research, says it looks for shares that minimize downside risk in tough times, while also holding out the promise of participating in rallies.
Discount broker Charles Schwab (SCHW) made a comeback from some weak showings in the recent past to place a close second over the six months, with a 13.6% return. Unlike its peers, Schwab's 100-name and sector-neutral list uses a mostly quantitative methodology that looks for cheap stocks with improving fundamentals and market momentum.

However, the stock remains on his list and is rallying in 2013, on hope for a leveraged buyout. Asked to comment on Morgan Stanley's results, a spokeswoman says: "The majority of our underperformance took place in 2009, when the high-quality, defensive names that make up our portfolio were not in demand."
One caveat: As Barron's has noted in the past, most brokers go through hot and cold streaks, so it pays to look for durable, long-term outperformance.

Snoop Lion has a powerful voice. It's a power he's wielded since he first broke into rap alongside Dr. Dre more than 20 years ago.
These days, Snoop is no longer hollering "murder was the case" or "187 on an undercover cop"; now, he's singing an entirely different tune, and it's all inspired by the violence at Sandy Hook Elementary, an Aurora, Colorado, movie theater and the recent terror attack in Boston.
"I learned how to take all of my positive energy and just become a mirror with it. I've always had power, and sometimes I felt like I was leading the blind to a dark alley, and not on purpose," Snoop said Wednesday (April 24) when he appeared on "RapFix Live" for the first time ever.
On his brand-new reggae album Reincarnated, which dropped Tuesday, Snoop Lion brings a message of peace, love and prosperity. It is a message he has been pushing out ever since his pilgrimage to Jamaica and conversion to a Rastafarian way of life. On his latest single, "No Guns Allowed" with Drake and his daughter Cori B., Snoop speaks out on gun violence in the world.
"My past is my past, but looking into the future I can try to represent for those kids out there who don't have a voice … to try to speak for them so they can go to school and feel safe or go to the theaters and feel safe and go anywhere and feel safe," he said. "That incident that happened in Boston should've made all of America wake up and see, this can happen to any of us. We need to get up on it, man."
Snoop is definitely up on it. He recently partnered with MTV and Jewelry for a Cause to release limited-edition "MTV x Caliber" bracelets made in part from the steel from illegal guns acquired in police-sponsored buyback programs. The proceeds from each sale will help fund future buyback amnesty programs.
The rap/reggae musician urges people to take a stand against gun violence now and not wait until the tragedy hits close to home. He said he already feels connected to all of the tragedy because his celebrity allows him to touch so many. "I can say that because I'm affected by all of these kids that's getting killed in these little schools, I'm affected by these people getting shot at in public venues, I'm affected by all of this gun violence because I have a heart and I'm emotionally connected to everybody that's connected to me," he said.

As long as venture money holds up, the one thing we won't run out of any time soon are cloud start-ups each claiming to have a smarter mousetrap than the other guys and some of them are sometimes right.
The latest name on these rolls belongs to an outfit called Pertino Networks that expects to be a "ball-buster," a technical term meaning disruptive to older technology like remote desktops and WANs - which it figures are too complex, expensive and limiting - as well as other modern cloud start-ups like the new cloud storage, file sharing and virtual office folk.
It could theoretically take down Meraki that Cisco spent $1.2 billion buying last November with a virtual super-switch that manages all connections regardless of the actual physical networks.
Its widgetry is supposed to deliver software-defined cloud networking (SDN) to the average Joe by giving SMBs the wherewithal to build enterprise-class networks that connect people everywhere in minutes.
Its cloud network engine, which is supposed to reinvent networking for the cloud era using network virtualization by creating a cloud-based personal address space - a so-called LAN in the cloud that harnesses the programmability and automation of SDN and the socially inspired management paradigm - just went into limited release, expecting to hit GA later this year.
"For the last decade, wide-area networking has been all about boxes and branches. But a wave of change is washing over business today, and in its wake IT organizations are grappling with cloud, mobility, post-PC devices and an emerging workforce raised on always-connectivity," said Pertino co-founder and CEO Craig Elliott. "We realized that the network outside the office is becoming as pervasive and critical as the one inside, so we developed Pertino - an entirely new way to build a network that's disruptively simple, secure and available everywhere."
Elliott was international general manager of Apple's online Internet division and went on to become CEO and president of Packeteer before setting up Pertino. Steve Jobs gave him a Porsche to entice him to Apple.
Initial device support includes Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 systems, Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 with Mac OS-X systems in beta this quarter. Mobile support for iOS and Android widgets will be available later in 2013.
Customers can get started with a perennially free personal plan that provides a personal cloud network for up to three members and three devices each. As needs grow, the professional plan that can scale to 250 users per address space will cost $10 a month per user. Ultimately Pertino is supposed to work on any device and include Active Directory support.
The software is supposed to make it possible to instantly create or take down secure networks that connect people anywhere to the information and applications they need to be productive by piggybacking on existing clouds like Amazon, Rackspace and Azure whose VPNs all run through multiple carriers and fixed points like Fremont, California that are close to customers.
It's thinking access times of 50 milliseconds or less.
Pertino is gathering customer feedback on usability, use cases and performance from 250 beta customers with maybe 500 devices. It can reportedly handle an arbitrary 64,000 devices on a single address space.
With Pertino, companies can deploy cloud servers and give them to people as if they were on the office network.
"While much of the excitement around SDN has been focused on data center networks, Pertino demonstrates the larger role SDN will play beyond the data center," said Nick Lippis, the founder of the Lippis Report. "The implications are far-reaching for how wide-area networks will be built and how network-based services will be delivered in the future."
Pertino was started in 2011 and is funded by Norwest Venture Partners and Lightspeed Venture Partners. Its widgetry isn't supposed to need new expertise, upfront investment or hardware like branch boxes since it's all virtual. It says it will provide as many VMs as necessary

And see margins at 37% and earnings at $ 10.95.
apple will sell off immediately to 465 and then penetrate the 425 area in several days after.
a trip to 363 and then some opitimism that apple could stay above $ 200 if it innovates. iphone is total disaster as it is now your mom and dads phone. samsung and google will join with nokia and reduce the iphones share in half
tim cook will be under pressure and al gore will be able to buy another 60m shares at $ 7. he literally designed the iphone himself while inventing the internet. al gore recommends selling apple to the highest arab bidder.
Doug Kass' call was to 'stay under 550 most of 1st half of year'. when asked if we'd see 450 he said 'that's a real reach'...
so no he is not calling for even 450... just to stay under 550 till June.
then he predicts huge rally to 650

Wimbush wows at Elite 11 regional
By Jeremy Crabtree and Gerry Hamilton
ASHBURN, Va. -- If there was an award given out for the most physically gifted quarterback at Friday's Elite 11 regional camp at the Washington Redskins' practice facility,
Brandon Wimbush
would undoubtedly be a runaway winner.
The No. 107-ranked prospect in the ESPN 300 showed impressive arm power, a strong frame that can carry 225 pounds, and the feet and balance that have earned him offers from the likes of Penn State, Virginia Tech, Miami, Ohio State, LSU and a host of others. The news of the day Friday was the offer list might soon be growing, and one could be a game-changer.
"Michigan was at the school [Thursday]," Wimbush said. "I threw for Coach [Doug] Nussmeier, and he said that he has to go watch a couple of other kids throw and he will get back to me by next Wednesday. Stanford is going to come see me throw on Thursday, too."
Wimbush admits that an offer from the Cardinal could be a game-changer.
Brandon Wimbush turned heads at the Washington D.C. Elite 11 regional on Friday.
"It would mean a lot," he said. "It would mean a lot to anybody. Stanford is the best of both worlds,"
Up next for the talented signal-caller will be a trip to Ohio State.
"I'm actually taking a visit to Ohio State with my head coach in a couple of weeks," he said. "I may go out to Stanford depending on how my session goes Thursday,"
While Penn State and Miami receive the most mention when speaking about top schools on Wimbush's list, one team that can't be slept on is Virginia Tech because of a strong relationship with offensive coordinator Scot Loeffler.
"I was there about a month ago," Wimbush said. "It was a dull day, but the intensity in the dome was awesome. I got to sit with Coach [Scot] Loeffler and had a meeting with him. It was a great feeling overall. I was comfortable with him and the guys."
Speaking of the Nittany Lions, the message from coach James Franklin is simple.
"Just to come in and compete with [incoming freshman
Michael] O'Connor
and see what happens," Wimbush said. "Obviously, they have
[Christian] Hackenberg
there, and he's a good one, but [Franklin] told me he wants me to come in and compete for time."
Haskins Jr. on the rise
The crop of 2016 quarterbacks on hand at the camp was impressive, to say the least. While
Dwayne Haskins Jr.
hasn't received the praise of some of the others there, the 6-foot-2, 175-pounder walked away Friday having impressed the most. On the recruiting front, five programs have already offered, with more expected in the near future.
"First offer was SMU," Haskins said. "My second offer was Arizona State, then Utah, Nebraska and Temple. I have interest from Clemson, Georgia, West Virginia, Boston College, LSU, Duke, North Carolina, Penn State, Ohio State, Notre Dame and Michigan. I know Boston College is about to offer me, but I don't know exactly when. Virginia Tech is also close."
If there is one program that has the chance to jump to the front of the pack by offering, it's the Big 10 runner-up.
"My first memory was Ohio State with Troy Smith versus Michigan," he said. "That was definitely my first memory. Ohio State was my team growing up. I did love Ohio State when I was younger. An offer would mean a lot to me, but all offers mean a lot to me, too."
Haskins definitely plans to camp at West Virginia and LSU. Florida State is working to get him down to Tallahassee for camp as well. Haskins' cousin is
Kevin Toliver II
, the No. 3 overall prospect in the Class of 2015.
Robinson believes he passed the test
Elijah Robinson
stepped on to the field Friday hoping to make a statement. He wanted to prove to folks he is worthy of the attention he's already gotten and that he is a quarterback, not an athlete, as some schools have labeled him.
"It was definitely an opportunity," he said. "That's mainly why I came here. It's an opportunity for other schools to see that I'm a quarterback. I like to play quarterback, and I can do it. I think I showed some folks today that I'm a quarterback, not an athlete. I hopefully passed the test. I think I did."
Some schools already believe enough in Robinson's abilities at the position. He's earned scholarship offers from UMass, Michigan State, Nebraska, Rutgers and Temple. He said he hopes to earn more attention in the coming weeks of the spring evaluation period.
"Penn State is supposed to be coming up to see me throw soon," said the 6-1, 180-pound Robinson. "Boston College and Ohio State are coming, too. I'm not really digging anybody now, and I appreciate all the schools that have offered me already. But there are a few schools I'm still waiting on: Penn State, Boston College and Ohio State, especially."
Guarantao adding offers
Another top Class of 2016 prospect on hand Friday was
Jarrett Guarantano
. The 6-3, 190-pounder has six offers, with that number expected to grow in the next week.
"I have Tennessee that just recently offered," he said. "[Friday], I have to call the Oklahoma coaches. Auburn is coming down to watch me throw on Tuesday. They said the offer is on the table, but they want to come watch me throw. I have Ohio State telling me that they want me to come shake Urban Meyer's hand, and they will offer. Michigan said they want me to come to their one-day camp, and they are coming back next week to watch me throw."
While Guarantano has made a number of unofficial visits, he's looking forward to making a number of trips this summer.
"I want to get to Alabama for a day, and Ohio State, too," he said. "I want to be around the coaching staffs for a day. I want to get back to Auburn and Clemson, too. They are probably my No. 1 or No. 2 with Tennessee. I loved Clemson when I went down there, I loved everything about it."
Battle belongs
Sometimes a prospect enters a camp like the Elite 11 with scholarship offers from smaller schools and gets overshadowed by more high-profile players. But then there are cases like
Brandon Battle
, who proved he fits right in with the best of the best despite having scholarship offers from only
James Madison
and Toledo. The 6-3, 180-pound Battle stood toe-to-toe with Wimbush, Haskins and other passers. Camp coaches complimented him on his arm strength, accuracy and ability to put the ball into tight spots. Battle said he hopes Friday's performance helps put him even more on the recruiting radar.
Battle said he's heard from all eight Ivy League schools, along with Rutgers, Boston College, Bucknell, Iowa, Kentucky, Temple, Virginia Tech and West Virginia. On Thursday, he said Maryland assistant Mike Locksley was at his school.
"He came to check me out," Battle said. "A lot of coaches are coming through, and I'm hoping they like what they see."
