Shirt Sale! Consume!
One extremely important for any holiday shoppers: the MGoStore is having a dual-pronged holiday sale. All shirts are 20% off and anything over $50 ships free.
There is also an official MGoBlog shirt, as requested by several readers:
Also, the world needs more queme shirts and "Worst State Ever" shirts that aren't those irritating knockoffs that actually explain what state we're talking about, every one of which makes God die a little inside:
Consume in the name of Christmas.
A side note to forestall the inevitable message board thread: yes, the sponsorship of the blog has switched over to Underground. This is by the blog's choice, not the M-Den's, as splitting the apparel sponsorship of the blog was awkward, and shouldn't negatively impact your opinion of them.
Dear Diary: The Return
Why hello, this feature, it's been a while since we've seen you! Let's round up some of the best in recent user-created content!
If Donovan Warren is leaning towards the NFL Draft, umhero breaks down the possibilities in the Collective Bargaining Agreement negotiations that would be most likely to convince him to come back.
As Michigan fans, we should hope that a new long-term agreement is reached before the draft. We should also hope that it includes salary slotting so that Donovan will be motivated to return to improve his draft stock.
So, you have your rooting interest all set up, if you're into rooting about bureaucratic policy changes in the NFL.
If you pay attention to the recruiting coverage 'round these parts, you know that there's some confusion as to whether Michigan can backdate 3 January enrollees to the 2009 class, in order to get the recruiting class up to 28 members come Signing Day. umhero tried to provide some clarity by analyzing the NCAA rulebook:
Does a player who enrolls in January count as part of the prior year's recruiting class or the current recruiting class?
18.104.22.168.2 Recruited Student-Athlete Entering after Fall Term, Aided in First Year. [FBS/FCS] A student-athlete recruited by the awarding institution who enters after the first term of the academic year and immediately receives institutional financial aid (based in any degree on athletics ability) shall be an initial counter for either the current academic year (if the institution's annual limit has not been reached) or the next academic year. The student-athlete shall be included in the institution's total counter limit during the academic year in which the aid was first received.
Based on the information I could find, it seems to me that the rule regarding applying scholarships to the previous season hasn't changed. Therefore, Michigan can exceed the 25 scholarship limit assuming they didn't have a full class of 25 last year and they don't exceed the 85 player cap.
His findings seem to be that Michigan can still oversign by 3 scholarships, unless there has been a change in Big Ten policies. All that remains to be discovered is whether such a conference rule change occurred. [Editor's note: UM compliance, for one, believes it has.] Assuming the limit is down to 25, airvipermb breaks down the possibilities for the last few slots.
With 2 super-useful diaries since last we rounded them up, umhero is the diarist of the
week since last Dear Diary.
Under Lloyd Carr, Michigan seemed to have a 1,000+ yard receiver each season (Be it David Terrell, Braylon Edwards, Mario Manningham, etc.). Rich Rodriguez's Michigan teams haven't accomplished that feat yet in their first two years, and markusr2007 looks at whether Wolverine receivers will have the opportunity to reach that benchmark again.
At WVU RR didn't get a 1,000 yard receiver until year 3, when QB Rasheed Marshall was in his 2nd year at QB:
WR Chris Henry, WVU, 1,006 yrds, 10 TDs (2003)
Rodriguez never had another 1,000+ receiver since 2003, though Chris Henry game close again in 2004 (872 yrds, 12 TDs) and so did Darius Reynaud back in 2007 (735 yds, 12 TDs)....
If there is a candidate for achieving the 1,000 yard mark in 2010 would have to be Roundtree, because in just 5 games he has as many receptions (23) as Greg Mathews, more yardage than any other receiver and more TD catches (3). Roundtree doesn't have blazing speed, but he's been an excellent possession receiver and his YPC are impressive for a RS freshman.
Roundtree and Forcier did seem to find a groove together once Roundtree worked his way into the starting lineup, so Roy is probably the best hope, at least in the near future.
Ohio State week brought us a bunch of good diaries, both analytical and literary. Though we know how The Game turned out, it doesn't lessen the impact of Coach Schiano's call for faith:
One play can kill. These "one plays" have combined to kill this season, turn a fall full of hope and promise of a new and better Michigan into a winter of concern, dismay, and even enmity, filled with worries about who we are and where we are headed.
But one play can birth something too. An extra cut on a kickoff return that transforms a typical 10-yarder into a game-changing touchdown. A block that breaks the running back free to rampage through the secondary. A tackle that saves a touchdown. A kick that sneaks inside the post instead of bouncing off of it. A pass not an inch too high or an inch too low, and thus a first down and not an interception. One play can do all that.
Good stuff.
Undefeated Dream Season 1992 breaks down the various groups that, for some reason or another, align themselves against Rich Rodriguez:
The Just Win, Baby
The Devout Nostalgic
The Traditionalist
The Distrustful
The Football Hater
The Puritan
The Media Elite
'I Wanted a Different Coach'
The Vengeful West Virginia Hillbilly
Check out the post itself for the descriptions of each of these groups.
And of course, at season's end, we get a lot of posts breaking down why the team might be better in the coming years, as well as a scary John L. Smith comparison for the 2009 team. Also, at the risk of depressing the MGoCommunity, the statistical breakdown of the OSU game. For those dismayed about the number of Ohio State fans in Michigan Stadium a couple Saturdays ago, there may be an explanation that doesn't implicate Wolverine fans.
This is off-topic, but it's on a subject matter that I'm very interested in, so check out willywill9's trip report to a different college football atmosphere, this time the "Clean, Old-fashioned Hate" game between Georgia and Georgia Tech.
It Appears That They Can't Screw It Up
Well, yeah, obviously this was going to happen. Joe Schad:
Notre Dame plans to interview Brian Kelly tomorrow, probably in NYC
40 minutes ago from txt
Kelly, for his part, went on the Dan Patrick Show and didn't exactly douse the rumors:
Patrick: Have you been offered a contract extension by Cincinnati?
Kelly: We are working on one right now.
Patrick: So there's a chance you could sign the contract extension and put an end to the Notre Dame rumors.
Kelly: Absolutely. There's absolutely a chance of that. And I think there's a chance that I could look at another job. I haven't made that decision yet and I'll do that after today. Today is our team meeting with our players and then I've got a couple of days until our banquet and I want to be able to sit down and figure out what the best course of action is.
Bob Stoops this is not. More:
Patrick: By next Saturday, will I know what your future is?
Kelly: Yes you will.
Yeah… so I guess our best spin on this is that it is possible for really good college head coaches to implode spectacularly when they move jobs. I mean, just look at… aw, hamburgers. That's our head coach.
Is there anything good to take out of this?
"I laugh when I hear it," Gilyard said earlier this month. "Fans ask me all the time, 'Is Coach Kelly going to Notre Dame or Michigan or some bigger place?' Ain't UC big enough? We're in a BCS conference, and we're winning. I think it's a perfect fit for Brian Kelly.
"We had another coach [Dantonio] who looked us straight in the face and said he wasn't leaving. We remember that."
Anyone feel better? Not really? Dangit.
Update: Clausen and Golden Tate are going to the NFL thanks to advice from Weis, so at least there's that.
Transparency Is Honesty; Nothing Else Is
So your favorite former collegiate head coach, the guy in charge of your favorite team, one of college football's top coaches, and a guy with a meathead haircut all found themselves on the receiving end of various kinds of unfair, incorrect, or nasty-but-deserved media attention. A confusing allegorical play in four mostly unrelated acts:
It's Just A Flesh Wound
Last week on The Sporting Blog I called Bob-Stoops-to-Notre-Dame an "unkillable zombie rumor" after Stoops had to make four progressively more emphatic announcements that he wasn't going to make an unprecedented leap from a program he built into a national power to one that's been no more successful than Purdue over the last 15 years.
It has now graduated to Black Knight status, though:
Saturday's edition of the Chicago Sun Times reported that multiple sources told the newspaper on Friday that "Stoops hasn't said 'no' to Notre Dame."
This was an interesting take on the words "I will be at Oklahoma. Any reporting to the contrary is completely unfounded." Technically, the words "wild elephants could not drag me to South Bend" are not in that statement. That, however, doesn't make it any less definitive. "I will be at Oklahoma." End of story. Unless you're the Sun-Times and you're bound and determined to keep after the dumb rumor you're almost singlehandedly responsible for perpetrating in the mainstream media.
Bob Stoops on saying no to Notre Dame:
"For the third, and hopefully final time, let me again state that I will continue to be the coach at Oklahoma. I appreciate the history and tradition of Notre Dame. I also appreciate the history and tradition of Oklahoma, and I have been part of building that tradition here.
"I work for a wonderful president (David Boren) and athletic director (Joe Castiglione), who have created an incredible work environment at OU. There haven't been any plans for a meeting or negotiations with Notre Dame and there will not be. Any reporting to that fact is completely erroneous. I will not be the next coach at Notre Dame."
This is how plains Indians must have felt after the United States broke yet another treaty with them, right?
Checking Is For Commies
Fake email that started minor Bielema-to-ND meme that would probably still be going on if ND sites hadn't posted the reveal.
All right, lolmsm and all that. But Stoops isn't the only guy batting away meritless rumors about his involvement with Notre Dame:
UW athletic director Barry Alvarez, who's with the team in Hawaii, said Friday morning that he has no knowledge of any interest on Notre Dame's part in speaking with Bielema.
"I haven't heard anything," Alvarez said when reached on his cell phone. "He hasn't said anything to me, and nobody's called me for permission."
Bret Bielema? No offense to a guy coming off a bounce-back year any Michigan fan would kill to have, but NDNation would have a meetup just to kill and eat each other if Bielema became head coach there. And, lo, the faintly plausible rumor was created whole cloth by one guy emailing a disreputable web site that just posts whatever crap someone sends in:
2. Friend composes a very short, but specific email: I used to work in the athletic department at Notre Dame (a lie), and I have heard that Jack Swarbrick is interested in Bret Bielema, the head coach at the University of Wisconsin. This was at 6:56pm last evening. The email is sent from a free gmail account. There is no other email sent from friend, no attempt to "sell" the rumor beyond the initial communication, and nothing else to back up his credibility.
3. Meanwhile, friend has another buddy randomly tweet a few times about the Bielema rumors, and goes to bed.
4. FootballCoachScoop does not reply to the email. FootballCoachScoop does not ask any followup questions. FootballCoachScoop, to friend's knowledge, makes no attempt to verify emailer's bona fides in any way.
5. The next morning, FootballCoachScoop runs the rumor almost verbatim. Friend chuckles and shares the development with a few friends.
This expands, getting picked up by "the Examiner," which is like a Bleacher Report that people haven't figured out is almost always garbage yet, then hit rumor first, accuracy later College Football Talk—an offshoot of Mike Florio's Pro Football Talk—and poor Rittenberg's Big Ten blog before the hoax was widely known. (BGS had actually already posted it.)
Your blogger has a couple emails in his inbox that might be innocent but look pretty hoax-y declaring that Rich Rodriguez will be fired the Monday after the Ohio State game, by the way.
This Direct Quote Is Out Of Context
Meanwhile, Charlie Weis ceased speaking to the media in the final days of his regime. I get this. If I was a head coach who knew his head would be on a platter in a matter of weeks, I wouldn't waste my time with a bunch of tedious questions about what went wrong. I might even call a special press event type substance with five hand-picked media members, and I might even go all FootballCoachScoop on tales of Pete Carroll's mysterious grad student affair:
Q: Is it frustrating to Pete Carroll, for example, portrayed in one way...
CW: Let me ask you this question: You guys know about things that go on in different places. Was I living with a grad student in Malibu, or was I living with my wife in my house? You could bet that if I were living with a grad student here in South Bend, it would be national news. He's doing it in Malibu and it's not national news. What's the difference? I don't understand. Why is it okay for one guy to do things like that, but for for me, I'm scrutinized when I swear. I'm sorry for swearing; absolve my sins.
At this point I would diverge, though, since attempting to take something off the internet is pointless and once you say stuff it's impossible, and a little dishonest, to try to take it back. Weis said it and he meant it and if it was supposed to be off the record that's only 5% less of a nasty move. He's then put this thing in the heads of five people off the record and set Pete Carroll's Grad Student on the same path as Rich Rodriguez's Impregnated Cheerleader, a zombie meme that lives in dark corners and emerges every time School X has a problem with Coach Y.
This One Really Is Out Of Context
I didn't mention the "Rich Rodriguez doesn't care about black people" moment from the bust in anticipation that a fuller picture of the comments would come out. WTKA's Ira Weintraub mentioned via email that Rodriguez's faux pas was a reference to an earlier speech by a regent. And lo, Dave Birkett provides:
Regent White talked earlier about, uh, it's really kind of ironic that the New Orleans Saints overcome the hurricane a few years back. And I used to live in New Orleans, coached there for a couple years (at Tulane), and I know how devastated that city (was) and how they overcome and rebuilt their stadium, rebuilt their program from the ground up. And we've had a few hurricanes of our own. And we had a big hurricane in August and it kind of hit us like a ton of bricks. But you had 120 young men and a bunch of people on staff say this is not going to tear our program apart. In fact, it'll do just the opposite, bring us together.
So, yeah, I wish Michigan had a coach that didn't misuse the world "ironic" and am pretty sure at some point in his life Rich Rodriguez has used the word "literal" to emphasize a literally untrue assertion. But Rodriguez is making a nod at one of the regents' Michael Scott impersonation and then riffing on it extemporaneously in a fashion that probably seemed unwise to him as the words were coming out of his mouth. (This has happened to me, plenty.) No one bothered to mention it except one of the two freakin' guys who wrote the piece Rodriguez is referring to, and that guy removed important context that would have taken one sentence to provide. Too good to clarify, I guess.
As for how much this matters, TSB colleague Andy Hutchins provides the right comparison:
These comments may actually match Nick Saban's penchant for grabbing Pearl Harbor and September 11th as metaphors for tragedy, what with Rodriguez talking about the human cost of Katrina purely in the prism of football, but it's less outrageous than it is ineloquent.
What difference does it make? It makes none.
Conclusion-Type Substance?
I don't really have one. I just had all this media stuff in my open tabs.
I do think there's some common theme here about partial information being evil: Stoops rumors are utterly baseless but go out of control so much that Stoops has to issue five separate denials of varying strengths, Bielema is momentarily implicated in the ND coaching search and only the hoax reveal keeps him from being hounded further, Weis throws a nasty rumor into the pool that will stick with Carroll forever, and Rodriguez's comments are removed from their context by a guy with a stake in public opinion of Rodriguez. In the one instance where the comments are a full transcript of the words spoken, the speaker's problem is that his comments were not elided from the record and leaked as a whisper campaign.
I guess the thrust is this: I don't believe Weis's retraction for a second because his response to it was to have the offending passage excised from the Rivals transcript instead of demanding that the context be irrefutably provided by one of the guys who was taping the conversation. The evidence is there. Release it. Similarly, Rodriguez's inelegant statement was made to look worse by the omission of information. The Sun-Times failed to clarify just why they thought Bob Stoops was going to be Notre Dame's next head coach at any point; by now they owe the public a detailed explanation of why they kept beating the drum long after any sane organization would have stopped. And Coach Scoop Unsubstantiated Football Site just posts unconfirmed stuff without any attempt to confirm or clarify the origins of the rumors, and doesn't even respond when hoaxed.
Because they're just "rumors," right? You can term whatever you want a rumor and be free from judgment when that rumor fails to come true.
My advice to internet publishers is be as honest and transparent as possible, and people will give you the benefit of the doubt as long as you show good judgment over the long haul. This philosophy has been in place at MGoBlog for as long as it's been around. The first bit of news the site ever originated was a report that Morgan Trent had broken his hand and would miss the Minnesota game in 2006, which Rivals snarkily dismissed in premium content, causing me to post a retraction. When several people reiterated that no, seriously, Morgan Trent's hand was broken, I posted the chain of events and provided enough information for readers to judge for themselves with some guidance—I believe me. Morgan Trent's hand was indeed broken, and I've tried to follow that template ever since. That managed to get this site through the coaching search and Sam McGuffie's Cuban Transfer Crisis stronger. I don't think you can say that about the Sun-Times above.
My advice to consumers of information on the internet is to look for this sort of transparency in the things you trust, and look dimly on anyone who would misrepresent information, intentionally or not, and refuse to apologize or clarify when called on it.

As someone who's a huge fan of the little guy, I really wanted to get TCU or Cincinnati ahead of Texas, but the more I looked at their resumes, the less I could justify it. Both might an equal say among their top group of wins, but the 'Horns have so much more depth in their schedule that the end carries them through (5th best win for Texas: Nebraska. 5th best win for TCU: Colorado State?). In fact, there might be an argument for moving Cincinnati ahead of TCU, but not Texas.
Other than that, everything is pretty straightforward. USC drops completely out from #16, but they probably should have been lower last week anyway. Stanford probably shouldn't have dropped, but again, they were probably overrated by me last week.
There are a couple big movers who didn't play, but their jumps were more based on teams ahead of them losing (and a closer look at the resumes by me) than anything else, so I don't feel too bad about it.
Where did I go wrong? Let me know in the comments.
Brandon Smith Likely To Transfer
This has been the hot rumor the past couple days and TomVH has confirmed that redshirt freshman safety/LB Brandon Smith has received transfer papers and is looking to move on. Hurray.
Smith was a top-100 "athlete" in the hybrid Rodriguez/Carr class who technically committed after the transition had been announced but, like JT Floyd, was a Carr recruit all the way who was just stringing out his commitment for reasons unknown. So this could be a "Carr guy" moving on to a place he'd rather be. In any case it's the departure of one of the most highly rated players in a class entering its third year at a position, be it linebacker or safety, of desperate need.
Smith didn't seem to be working out, as he was too big and slow for safety and spent his game as a quasi—linebacker starter on skates, but there's zero upside here. He could have put on 20-30 pounds easily—his "frame" was a reason he was rated so highly—and eventually turned into a contributor at linebacker. At the very least he would have been a relatively veteran body on a defense that needs every last potential contributor. BONUS: Michigan can't even add anyone to replace him because of a mysterious but apparently real oversigning change that prevents Big Ten teams from backdating players who enroll early*. DOUBLE BONUS: Before the season I took a look at Michigan's APR and concluded that sanctions resulting from transfers were unlikely, but the attrition has continued at a pace that makes me nervous.
*(Which will definitely help the struggling conference compete nationally.)

I'm hoping to begin a regular exercise routine soon and running has always been a favorite for me.Ā However, the bras I currently have don't offer enough support to my larger breasts.Ā Can you recommend a great sports bra for the breastfeeding mother?Ā It doesn't necessarily need to be a nursing one -- I would remove it when not exercising.Ā TIA!
For those who run -- best sports bra??
bumpin for recommendations - nursing and reg. sports bras please, for larger chests' support!!
I'm small chested and had luck with the Nike bras.┬Ā So, though I'm a nursing mum, I don't have any recommendations for larger chested.┬Ā Maybe check out Bravado and see if they have any sports bras.┬Ā I know some larger chested women who have had luck with them.
Mum to three, ages 5, 8, and 11
I'm fairly large chested normally, and have never found an awesome running bra - most heavy duty sports bras just aren't supportive enough - but using 2 bras always worked for me. I would use my regular heavy support sports bra, and wear a lighter one on top of it, to contain the extra jiggle. (like this one, which is also sold at Target: www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001OCMBHI)
I will say that the first few months of nursing, I needed 3 bras to control everything, but then again, I hate jiggle and my breasts were SUPER heavy then.

"Surf music is the punk rock of the early 1960s," said bassist Peter Flessas of the local surf-rock band. "It was dynamic music, but it was all instrumental, and you didn't have to have a big budget. It enabled young musicians to get their music out there." »Read Full Article(2)

My car was involved in a hit and run on 07/08/2012. I filed a police report and the next day called to file a claim. Today is 08/08/2012 exactly a month from the date of my accident and a day short of when I filed the claim. I received an email from the person handling my claim on 07/26/2012 to drop my car off for repairs and the check was mailed. I check the mail every day and there is no check. My car was completed on 08/03/2012. I was forced to spend my bill money to get my car out of the shop and take out a loan to pay my bills.
There is a lot more to go along with this story. Lies from your phone reps and an agent Ernest Stillwell who does not seem to care at all. I requested that he stop pay on the check on 08/01/2012 and mail a new check. He declined to do that. He offered me an option to sign a cancel check form which I filled out and faxed over about 3pm on 08/03/2012. He tells me that if I want it sent over night it will have to be at my own expense.
I left an urgent voice mail asking for Ernest to please call me back and also sent him an email. He did not call me back until Monday 08/06/2012. He tells me that he is waiting for accounting to let him know to print another check. Today is Wednesday noon I have not heard from Ernest not by phone or email. To me Ernest does not care and obviously not concerned at all. Either Ernest doesnt care or this is normal procedures for the company, to delay payment for as long as possible.
I have been the victim by the person who hit my car and ran and now my own insurance company. I have since received 6 pieces of mail from Drivers Insurance since filing the claim not one a check. At this point I need a check mailed to me overnight today, waive my deductible and also address why my policy renewal went from $98 to $143. I would prefer a really nice discount because I am an older male with a very good driving record.

Maintenance Support and Utilities Management personnel at NNSA's Y-12 National Security Complex have taken steps to make sure old utility poles aren't sent to the landfill. The Tennessee Department of Agriculture's Forestry Division and Y-12 staff collaborated to deliver utility poles to Lone Mountain State Forest's parking lots.
Mike Disney, Y-12 Power Operations section manager, said, "It's good that we can help other agencies, save tax dollars, and help save the environment all at the same time. Opportunities like this don't happen very often."
After the old utility poles were inspected and approved for off-site use, six forestry service employees brought five lumber trucks on site in October 2011. Y-12's line crew cut the 90-foot poles into smaller sections and helped load the trucks. The lumber trucks eventually hauled away more than 100 poles.
Cables pass through holes in waist-high sections of the poles, creating a border and confining vehicles and horse trailers to designated parking areas. In the near future, forestry personnel will use some of the poles as structure posts for a much-needed pavilion that will provide cover for Morgan and Roane County wildland firefighting equipment. Other sections of the poles will be used to block motorized vehicles from using the horse trails.
Additional uses for the old poles have been found. The U.S. Department of Energy is using some of the old poles at its secure transportation courier training facility in Oak Ridge. Some of the poles have been used to build a façade for a bunker on a live firing range. Additional poles have been stockpiled, and a combat conditioning course will be built as soon as funding is provided.
Pantex volunteers recently made lunch for 350 honor roll students as part of the plant's ongoing efforts to support academic achievement in area youth, particularly in areas such as science and math. This is the second year in a row Pantex has cooked lunch for the A and A-B honor roll students from Sam Houston Middle School in Amarillo.
Thanks to Sandia technology, radioactive material from more than 43 million gallons of contaminated wastewater have been removed at Japan's damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power.Sandia developed a technology that uses crystalline silico-titanate, or CST, as a molecular sieve that can separate highly volatile elements from radioactive wastewater.The CSTs were developed in the early 1990s response to a need for materials to remove radioactive contaminants from wastewater. During that time, researchers found that a certain class of synthetic zeolite is more effective in capturing some radioactive elements, like cesium, than other technologies.To read more about the technology click here.

Members of the B&W Pantex Explosives Technology Division celebrated a significant safety milestone Thursday with a cookout to commemorate working three million man hours without a lost time injury.Managers from the division grilled up lunch for approximately 150 workers to mark the achievement, which is made even more significant by the nature of the work done by Explosives Technology employees.According to David Cole, acting division manager, safety is the absolute priority for Pantex and it is something they talk about every day."Explosives operations are a high-consequence area," he said. "If you have a mistake, the consequences can be very grave. We have to make sure we never forget that and never become complacent."Explosives Technology staff have worked diligently to make sure everyone works safely, said Monty Cates, manager of the Materials and Analytical Services Department. At daily standup meetings, safety is always the first topic, and every month, department safety meetings are held. Explosives Technology staff also participate in the many safety programs that operate plant wide.B&W Pantex Acting Deputy General Manager Rod Johnson said the fact the Explosives Technology Division was able to achieve such a milestone is testament to the dedication of the staff. "Safety, security and quality are the basis of all of our activities at Pantex," he said. The hard work of the members of the division led to Pantex being named the High Explosives Center of Excellence for High Explosives Manufacturing by the Department of Energy.

Alonso to Everton???? Joke!!!!!
Is this a joke or what??? Alonso is rumoured to be on his way to Everton if you believe the mutterings from the dump across the park. £15m by all accounts!

£15M..........no way, but Sissoko
No Problem!

The ironic thing is that despite all there piss taking about sissoko, I think he would do a really good job for everton, and unlike alonso benitez would allow him to leave

A Yahoo! User Dec 30, 2007 01:21 Flag
Pad im far from pissed off, why would i be, after all i enjoy putting you straight on the finer aspects of football....you obviously dont know and havent a clue about the beautiful game....Alonso is not an excellent player, now that is a fact..
...as for Arteta going if Real Madrid came calling...i wouldnt blame him, would you?, can u tell me the same about any of your players.......including La La who was going to leave....TWICE, but only cahnged his mind over threats to him and his family.....interesting that Brca wanted alonso, the lazy prik, for 20M and your birdbrian of a CEO blew it.............hahahah
accept it Arteta is far far better, and no we dont want to swap, u penus.
Alonso is an excellent player....FACT.
PS Page one of how to piss off an evertonian -"tell them arteta is leaving next season"
Personally i think he will (long term deal equals more cash for him thats all) but yes its just speculation. Real madrid have never officially come knocking for him yet have they, that would test his resolve, but maybe he likes playing for midtable teams, who knows?
A Yahoo! User Dec 29, 2007 23:42 Flag
whose everyone pad?....you and your insider buddies, funny that we have him on a long term deal, though dont u think??............hows that loan deal on mascherano going????
Alonso can spread a pass, ill give him that ala Jan Molby, but his workrate is pants, his goal tally questionable at best and his tackling ability is the same as most others in the division.......
where the hell do you get class from??........Aragones??...we all know he'll be either dead, up b4 theboard of racism or sacked after next years Euros, so then we'll see, like we know already the best spaniard on merseyside gracing his national team....the rest is all frightened talk and jealousy by fans such as yaself.......wise up, get real, the future is Blue....
Hes a class midfielder as is arteta to claim anything else just exposes your ignorance/bias.
We wont get arteta of course not, everyone knows that he will be back in spain this time next year.

1596 Tasting Notes
So I picked some of this up from my local Whole Foods on a whim. It had been a while since I bought a new tea, and this one sounded summery and interesting. I had visions of a raspberry style creamsicle, and I like fruity black teas. Worth a shot, anyway!
This is an unusual blend. For starts, its super colorful. Lots of cornflower petals, bits of orange peel, and what look like Fruity Pebbles but must be the raspberries. Not a lot of actual tea, in comparison.
Brewed up, this has a strong flavor of herbs, and just a hint of a brighter fruit note, but not enough for me to tell if it was the raspberry or the orange.
Hmm. I'm not impressed by the first brewing. I've got a bit more (though not a great deal, thank goodness), so I can experiment a bit more.
Steepster! I have returned to you! My computer died a dramatic death on Saturday, so thank goodness I backed up my documents.
I now have a new computer, which is very shiny and somewhat intimidating, and I am happy to have returned to the internet.
So happy to be back to Steepster!
Morning thrifting went very well, with the aquisition of a stripy shirt, some black flats, and a maroon colored scarf, along with a silver candle holder. No good tea cups, though. Oh well.
I'm working on my wordcount. Its not bad. I've got about 500 more to do today to meet my target, and then I should have time to work out, before heading off to the family BBQ. I do love a cookout. Everything is so tasty!
Alright, 500 words. Lets do this! Come on Paris, lets go.
For my fellow tea drinkers in the U.S. Happy 4th of July! I'm going to hunt down the best thrift store sales in the area, do my writing, and then go to visit my family and have the annual bbq.
And no work! Thats always a good thing.
Hopefully I shall have several cups of tea as well.
Oh its been a long day. Many, many jobs to do, a lot to take care of, including work for two separate jobs, taking care of a friends canaries, ducks and cat, and then more work. And my work count.
I'm ready to relax. Vanilla Comoro is my go to relaxation tea, and its doing its job, a beautiful vanilla cloud.
At least, here in the states, tomorrow is a holiday, so I can get a lot of rest in.
I had a very long day myself, and can't wait to rest tomorrow! And I agree that vanilla teas are the best kinds to unwind with. I've been meaning to try this H & S blend for a long time now, and I think this tasting note just inspired me to go for it!
Its gonna be a long day!
I've got my morning shift, and then I have to go and tend to the morning session of animal care. I'm pet sitting two ducks, a parakeet, fifteen canaries and a cat.
The ducks are jerks.
Then I've got my Nanowrimo writing, and some work for one of my bosses, and working out, and then my evening class, and then collapse. Whew.
An easy tea is required.
This is also proof that you should give teas a chance. I love ginger, but am kinda meh on peach. If this hadnt been a gift from my boyfriend, I might never have had it, and yet I really, really like it now.
LOL how could the ducks be jerks? I guess I'm biased though because I grew up across the street from what I called "the duck pond" and I've always like ducks a lot.
Haha I used to feed the ducks all the time and they never bit me. They were "wild" in that they did not belong to anyone but they did live in the middle of my neighborhood. Though, they were not pleased when I stole some ducklings and brought them home to live in my pool, understandably so (don't judge too harshly, I was about 6 years old)
Taking a break from my writing, and drinking this before I need to go off to work.
This smells fantastic every time I open the tin. Its a delightful wiff of fruit. Perfect for a mid writing, pre working break.
Today I am having this with a lighter steep and some milk, and its much more drinkable this way. Hooray, a way to drink a tea!
Its gonna be a busy day. Its my first day of pet sitting for a friend. I did this last year, taking care of the canaries, the ducks, the parakeet and the cat.

Release Date:
December 7, 2010
Rating: g - Suitable for Children
@MGM's first big-budget science fiction film, Forbidden Planet, combined state-of-the-art special effects with a storyline based on Shakespeare's +The Tempest. In the 23rd century, Cmdr. J.J. Adams (Leslie Nielsen) guides United Planets cruiser C-57-D on a rescue mission to faraway planet Altair-4. Twenty years earlier, Earth ship Bellerophon disappeared while en route to Altair-4. Only the ship's philologist, Dr. Morbius (Walter Pidgeon), survived; in the intervening decades, Morbius has created an Edenlike world of his own, for the benefit of himself and his nubile young daughter, Altaira (Anne Francis). His private paradise is zealously guarded by Robby the Robot, a piece of technology far in advance of anything on Earth. When Adams and his crew land on Altair-4, Morbius announces that he has no intention of being rescued and returned to Earth. When Adams attempts to contact home base, he finds that his radio equipment has been smashed by some unseen force. Holding Morbius responsible, Adams confronts the scientist, who decides to tell all. At one time, according to Morbius, Altair-4 was populated by the Krel, a wise, intellectually superior race. Using leftover Krel technology, Morbius has doubled his intellect and gained the ability to shape a new world to his own specifications. Forbidden Planet was a big influence on future sci-fi outer-space efforts, especially Star Trek. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Observing bayou culture is a blessing
Published: Saturday, April 21, 2007 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, April 20, 2007 at 10:38 p.m.
The wind carried a chill but you couldnt ask for prettier skies last week as shrimp boats great and small wended southward on Bayou Little Caillou, a priest at the prow of the lead vessel, prayer book in one hand and aspergillum in the other.
Thats the Holy Water shaker, for those not familiar.
A little ways to the west, on Bayou Grand Caillou, the Dulac shrimpers will have their own blessing of the fleet Sunday, and there are boat blessings like this all over south Louisiana, in Point-aux-Chenes and Golden Meadow, Galliano and Dularge. If you have never witnessed one of these, now is a good time to go because people wonder how long it will continue.
The pure majesty of a big trawler decked stem to stern with pennants and bunting, or the poignancy of a little skimmer boat rigged up with cut-out pictures of saints and the Blessed Virgin Mary, all evidence of a fishing culture on life support but nonetheless breathing, should not be missed.
Willard Thibodeaux, who is now 67 years old, has never missed one of these as long as he can remember, and there he was Sunday in a lawn chair at the home of relatives, gazing at the bayou, waving at a few of the people he knows while everyone else attacked mounds of steaming crawfish on a nearby picnic table.
Go and try to find Willard Thibodeaux in Chauvin and people will cock their heads when you say the name but if you ask for Neg -- or Mr. Neg, which also was the name of one of his many former boats --youll get a smile of recognition instead, and someone will send you to the right place.
Its been a few years now since he has dipped a net in the water, and as he sat watching everyone pass, Mr. Neg was quite well reminded of this. He also was reminded of how his two hands did a lot more than just catch shrimp for most of his life.
For years, from the time he was in his early 20s, he built boats with his father, Willis Thibodeaux, and everyone says they were spectacular, built of cypress with hand-held tools, made to skim on water in the calm and bear up when needed to the rough.
One of these, the Miss Charlene, is still floating at a dock somewhere in Dulac, though it now bears a different name.
Mr. Neg has a picture of another one, a boat they called the East Bayou, all decked out for a boat blessing more than 30 years ago. The cross lashed to the A-frame was 8 feet tall and there were flowers all about the gunwales and streamers and pennants, just like the boats have today. He and everyone else will tell you that back then a lot more boats paraded.
But that was before the shrimp ponds got built all over the Third World, making for so many shrimp that they became cheaper than hot dog meat.
Mr. Neg was already pretty much out of the shrimping business by the time all that happened, although on opening day he would always head out to Lake Boudreaux for a few morning licks, catching not enough to sell but enough for everyone to put in the freezer.
His attention now taken from boats, Mr. Neg lately has poured his talent and ingenuity into the Suzuki 800 motorcycle he rides all over Terrebonne Parish. The jump seat he built on the back of it, for his wife, Joyce, is all the talk whenever he is around other people with motorcycles. But he and everyone else who knows him realize it all began with boats.
As the boats passed before him, Mr. Neg occasionally diverted his gaze from the bayou to the children who frolicked and the loved ones who gossiped and the grandson playing his guitar and the other grandson banging on some bongo drums that happened to be around. He thought about how there is more than one kind of blessing. There is the kind the priest gave as he passed. And then there was the blessing of just having been part of this for so long. And there was something else, too.
"Yes. Here are my kids, my grandkids, all of us all around," he said. "And that is a blessing too."

I was really excited about getting these but was shocked at the first bite. The first taste you get is pure salt which then mixes with the sweet mango, finished off by the heat of cayenne. These would be so much tastier without the salt, I was definitely not a fan. The sweet and heat mix well together once you can get over the initial few seconds of the bite! My sister on the other hand loved them but she loves all things salty, so I think it definitely just depends on personal preference.

Restaurant operator Luby's (NYSE: LUB ) reported earnings that fell sharply in the second quarter, as food cost inflation and consumers tightening their discretionary spending sapped expansion. Profits dropped 81% to just $203,000, or $0.01 per share, from $1.1 million, or $0.04 per share in the year ago period. Revenues, however, were up 10%, to $87.5 million, mainly from the December acquisition of the Cheeseburger in Paradise chain.
Same-store sales at restaurants open at least 18 months, a key retail metric because it eliminates the effects of expansion by measuring organic growth only, fell 0.6% in the quarter.
Luby's runs 94 Luby's Restaurants, 54 Fuddruckers, two Koo Koo Roos, and now 23 Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurants.
The restaurant operator offered full-year earnings guidance of $0.21 to $0.25 per share, which is lower than its prior guidance of $0.27 to $0.30 per share.

Defining Ethnic Fashion
When it comes to ethnic fashion, there's a wide range of definitions. And every fashion bible – read Vogue or Brandfair – has its own take on what this particular niche represents. For starters, this kind of fashion represents a culture or community. For instance a sari or salwar kameez represents a few South Asian countries. Bold printed tops with matching sarong like skirts and headgear could be labeled African ethnic wear. The ways to define what is "ethnic" are many.
Going by the dictionary, the term ethnic is defined as "relating to a population subgroup (within a larger or dominant national or cultural group) with a common national or cultural tradition." So, while a sari is ethnic Indian wear a "kasavu sari" is specific to Kerala, a "paithani" is specific to Maharashtra, and a "bhagalpuri" is specific to Bengal.
What is important while choosing to wear ethnic clothing is to ensure, that the ethnic handloom and printing are highlighted. It is easy to fall into the trap of buying clothing from couture labels that are "inspired by" certain ethnic crafts, but nothing beats the value of something that is truly artisanal and from the source.
It is very restrictive to say that ethnic fashion is confined to ethnic groups. It is something you can wear irrespective of your race! All that matters is an appreciation for the clothing you wear and for the crafts you represent while stepping out in an ethnic ensemble.
All that being said, you have to be aware of the fact that your look could veer towards "costume-y" if you don't wear something well. For instance, if you want Indian ethnic, opt for a Salwar Kameez or an elegant sari, a lehenga with all the trimmings would only make you look like you're headed to the altar!

This photo are part from very interesting photography captured by Bartowian! :) See this photo original.
As soon I seen this photo I was surprised by this wonderfull collection of old forgotten tools! Thank You Bartowian for this chance to historic lesson!
Can You and Your visitors describe tools and give descriptions or tools names or usages purposes? (this are why I placed numbers next to each tool on Bartowian photo.)
About me - I believe know most of them, but do not know only few.
What are for tool Nr 2?
Have no ideas about Nr 17. And can only guess about tool Nr. 6 usages.
For others this tools I can give more or less detailed descriptions. :D
How about You? Can You?
ainars (Hope I not pirated copyright rules from this photo owner?) :-D
Do I get points for actually having used a drawknife (#10) for shaving wood shingles?
Hello Marilyn! Nice to read from You!
How are You in Australia? Is the weather in streets acceptable for walking around and taking new photos? ;)
About tools - yes, right, Nr 10 was used for shaving wood shingles. :) Did You used in Your life? Really? I believed this is only man tool and definitely are not for women's use? :D I admired of You!
Cheers ainars.
p.s. I used all this tools (except I noted) when was young boy and lived at my grandfather house. (at least I tried to use it). :)
Ainars no worries, mate, about copyright. I know you'll share the millions with me... ;-)6 is a hitch for a horse -- notice the double hitch in the next photo
I don't recognize #2 or #16 at the moment. My consultants are taking another drive for a family birthday lunch visit and won't be back until later tonight... of course, I could simply call the store owner and ask... did you notice I tried to name the items in his display window?
Thank You Bartowian! :D
This Your photo are great and helped me recall much from my early years. I test myself, can I recall tools names or try remeber how I used those tools and etc. :)
I showed yesterday pict to my teenager daughters who newer worked at country farms. Them recognized only few of them. :( This means, next generation will come after 10 years will never ever know about this tools!
Thanks for Nr.6. As soon You mention this usage I recalled than I seen similar one.
Nr 16? - it looks for me in pict as wooden hammer? Isn't? Can be used together with 7,8,9 for house building wooden works or used on whitesmith metalworks.
But what is with nr 17? Is this something for horses?
ah, you didn't ask for #16 (which looks like a tool useful as a hammer -- except the handle seems too fragile). #17 might be a protective cover for the horse's neck ring which links to the hitch... see at the top left around the horse's head
1 "consultant" does not know what that is, neither do I. It's not a "Dreschflegel" (as the one in the store window clearly shows); please do tell what you make it out as.
2 ist ein WetzKumpf für den Wetzstein" which consultant knows as "WetzKirze" (in the village dialect of his childhood village in Schlesien), i.e. to store a "Waterstone" or sharpening stone which you see the farmer tie to his belt here when cutting hay. it contains water and the whetstone)
3 a sickle (in German called a "Sichel" or "Handsichel")
4 a scythe (which is a "Sense" in German)
5 a pitchfork (in German called a "Heugabel" <---here much better explained)
6 a "Schildscheit", part of a "Zugtiergeschirr" i.e. a part of a _"Horse Harness" to hitch the horse(s) to a carriage, cart or plough.
7-9 are stone working tools (not used for wood, says consultant), so we don't know how to call them...
10 is a "Schneideisen" (not used for cutting or smoothing shingles, I'm told. ...except if one doesn't have a plane "(Hobel in German)" handy?!? <---was my questioning reply, to defend Marilyn... ;-)
11-13 are different saws (for different cutting purposes)
14 is a "Haue" - a hacking tool
15 is also a "Haue"
16 is a Wooden Mallet a "gentle hammering tool" called a "Klüpfel" in German (not for pounding hard on things, obviously). I knew only of the round models.
17 "consultant" didn't have a clue what to make of that (he didn't get a close enough look at that wall on Sunday); he discarded my idea that it might be a cover for the yoke (Kumt) and speculate d that it might be a fodder sack to hang on the animal's head.
Ainars, you should like the Museum Geiser Schmiede and the Sensenmuseum
Nr1 I thought, was used by flax sheaf-binders?
I have not good pictures on hand where to show You how this dried flax sheafs are handled later with this tools, but I will look forwards tomorrow.
Great links from You, I will explore tomorrow too. Tnx for all this info! Cheers - ainars. :)
a tool for binding flax... that could be, Ainars -- I'll try to make an attempt to find some references for it somewhere...
I just came across this---> Annual Flachsmarkt, a large annual show of historic trades in Germany, taking place in Krefeld-Linn at the castle Linn... they even have their own website_ !!! :)
I wiki'ed across another interesting place: Deutsches Werkzeugmuseum der Stadt Remscheid. They do have their own (multi-lingual) website even: Werkzeugmuseum Remscheid
About #10, which I called a drawknife. When our two sons were young and we were visiting my parents in Wisconsin (the place we have now), my father and husband decided to build a little cabin for the boys--with real cedar shingles. We got pieces of cedar logs cut the right length (I forget what they're called), and used a mallet and a froe (I don't see one of them in the photo) to cut the shingles, then used the drawknife to make them a bit wedge-shaped for smoother fit on the roof. My father built a shaving horse (schintzelbanke--pardon my incorrect spelling) to hold the shingle firmly as it was shaped. (No, the technique wasn't a family memory; my father taught wood shop in high school, so he was "handy," and he was also interested in learning old techniques.)
yes, Marilyn, that's just how I imagined it: 'being handy' means using whatever tool is at hand to achieve a goal or purpose. 'Hackers' is what we called those "good guys" 30+ years ago, the guys that got the job done "somehow" -- wizards that did magic. We objected to The Fools (tm) abusing the term, but... well, we got at least some to use the terms "crackers" and "computer criminals," but one doesn't dare use the honorific term 'hacker' anymore, for fear of it getting misunderstood.
Ainars, got another interesting website link: Antique Farmtools
+sigh+ RIP Luciano Pavarotti (dead at 71) +sigh+
...watch/hear his duo with James Brown, godfather of soal
...if you've never heard his CD collaboration with Sting, you probably can't find it anywhere. I liked it, but it was a flop, apparently. I bought a dozen for $1 each at clearance, gave them away to friends... until I was left with none myself +...sigh...+ :-(
Hello friends, I am back to read, what i have missed in my comments pages for last two weeks! :)
Yeah, I see many "deep waters are gone!" :D For example, missed great link for antique tools colection! :)
Also, two popular names will be used from now onwards in connection with sad words "has-been" :( Last week Your mentioned Maestro Pavarotti, and now this weekend Colin McRae +sigh+
No, I have not flop vinils You mention, but I have CD
welcome back, Ainars. Your friends will be looking forward to your (picture) stories.
Ainars, I've been meaning to call your attention sooner to "18 reasons to think of Ainars" -- photos I took the 10 days ago. Enjoy!
Hello, @B! Thank You for great link! Unfortunately I was quite stressed all past weeks (still am) and was busy only with my own photos. :((
I will browse Your new uploads and specially those with mentioned bookmarks, in very next days. Cheers, Ainars.
This is fantastic.... Very nice----

I don't understand exactly how to explain this, thus the reason the title.
When ever I save changes in options under apperance, my colors revert to something else, I loose backgrounds, text colors change, some menus become un-useable. No viruses, even checked with Godaddy who is supporting it. I have reinstalled version 2.8.4 and still the problem is there. I've backed up about a month ago, so that was the only way I was able to restore it some what, but I've made a lot of changes in a month. So, I'm really desperate to get this working again soon.
I will check with my Theme support, I have purchased a theme "ProPhotoBlog" and see if any of there clients are experiencing any of the same issues.

Keith Urban and Miranda Lambert Take It to the Fans in 'We Were Us' Video
Keith Urban and Miranda Lambert take it to the fans in their video for 'We Were Us.'
Keith Urban and Miranda Lambert take it to the fans in their video for 'We Were Us.'
After Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley's hilarious shoutout to Robin Thicke and Miley Cyrus, complete with a black and white striped suit and foam finger, an even more talented duo took to the stage -- Miranda Lambert and Keith Urban. And thank goodness, there was no twerking involved -- just great singing.
Tim McGraw, Keith Urban and Taylor Swift's collaboration of "Highway Don't Care" has won the Musical Event of the Year and Video of the Year categories at this year's CMA Awards.
So many Hollywood relationships look pretty from the outside. Then years, or even months later, they end in divorce. This isn't the case for country singer Keith Urban and his actress wife, Nicole Kidman, who are very much in love.
Keith Urban and his Oscar-winning wife Nicole Kidman often find themselves far apart, given their busy-in-the-spotlight careers.
In Keith Urban's family of four, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. The Australian singer and his wife, Nicole Kidman, have been blessed with two beautiful daughters, and Urban confesses that 5-year-old Sunday Rose usually spends her time at home singing, even if she sometimes gets the lyrics wrong.
Keith Urban and Miranda Lambert are superstars in their own right, and when their star power combines, it's pure magic. Fans got to experience the singers perform a surprise duet of 'We Were Us' in Oklahoma City, making every country fan who wasn't wish they had been there.
KNUE has just received more tickets to two of the biggest concerts going on this weekend in Bossier City, LA. at the CenturyLink Center and at The Gexa Energy Pavilion in Dallas.
Keith Urban's hit 'For You,' which was written for the film 'Act of Valor,' racked up a huge share of artist and publishing royalties for the singer -- to the tune of $300,000. But, instead of keeping it for himself, the star has presented the money to the Navy SEAL Foundation.
Keith Urban was a busy many for the past year. In addition to touring and releasing the new album 'Fuse,' there was his gig on 'American Idol,' along with all the promotion (and side drama) that accompanied it. It might seem like 'Idol' would be a distraction that would negatively effect or detract from his own music. However, that wasn't the case. In fact, it was quite the opposite. His work on the reality show actually helped him gain "fresh perspective" for his latest chart-topper.
During the 2013 New York Fashion Week, Nicole Kidman had a dangerous run-in with a cyclist on a city sidewalk. A photographer on a bike careened into Kidman, which her husband, Keith Urban, likens to the Wild Wild West.
Keith Urban's newest album 'Fuse' debuted at No. 1 on Billboard after its release on Sept. 10, but it wasn't without a battle to get to the top.

The National Windstorm Impact Reduction Program (NWIRP) was established by Congress "…to achieve major measurable reductions in the losses of life and property from windstorms through a coordinated Federal effort, in cooperation with other levels of government, academia, and the private sector, aimed at improving the understanding of windstorms and their impacts and developing and encouraging the implementation of cost-effective mitigation measures to reduce those impacts."
With the enactment of PL 114-52 (the National Windstorm Impact Reduction Act Reauthorization of 2015) on September 30, 2015, NIST has been designated as the Lead Agency for NWIRP. Other designated Program agencies are the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and the National Science Foundation (NSF). The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has also participated in NWIRP from its inception with PL 108-360 in 2004. Other federal agencies are invited to participate in NWIRP activities; among those already involved are the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the Department of Energy (DoE). Summaries of past NWIRP activities are available in the Program's biennial reports to Congress (available at top right).
