Bret Bielema To Arkansas!
In a stunning coup, Arkansas will hire Wisconsin's Bret Bielema as its next football coach, Yahoo! Sports has learned.
Bielema, who has taken the Badgers to three straight Rose Bowls, was nowhere on the radar amid months of speculation over who Arkansas would hire.
An announcement will come Tuesday, sources told Y! Sports, but Bielema is not expected to be introduced until Wednesday.
But like adding Rutgers and Maryland will prevent this sort of thing from happening. People in charge of things are just in charge of them, for no reason.
Joel Stave injury: Badgers QB reportedly out for season with broken collarbone
potentially relevant if M does make the B10CG
Unverified Voracity Kickstarts Pahokee
Hope for Pahokee, the kickstarter. Martavious Odoms's charity for his hometown has set out to kickstart themselves:
They've got 16 days to get to 35k and are 25k short. Hit it up.
Also, don't forget the Colt DelVerne fundraiser on the 15th.
Transition costs: steep. Not here, but in Madison, where their new OL coach just got canned two games in. This was no Adam Braithwaite, either:
When UW coach Bret Bielema hired Markuson in the offseason, it was considered to be a coup at the time. Markuson spent the last 14 years coaching offensive lines in the Southeastern Conference at Arkansas and Mississippi. Since 2003, he coached six different players who earned All-America honors.
The Badgers had 35 rushing yards against Oregon State, 70 if you take out sacks.
The new guy is basically Adam Braithwaite. Bart Miller is a quality control coach who graduated from New Mexico in 2007 and hasn't had a full-time assistant job yet. Now he's in deep. Bret Bielema may be less lovable than Brady Hoke.
The numbers from that Oregon State game are shocking: 1.5 yards a carry for Montee Ball, 4.4 yards a pass, and 206 total yards against a team that was 3-9 last year. The 2011 Beavers were in the triple digits in rushing D and pass efficiency D and gave up 35 points to the Badgers. Nobody turns that around that quickly. I'll have to torrent that thing to see what happened.
Boo 3:30 starts. If we'd had the Air Force game at noon we all could have watched Iowa and Wisconsin implode and Notre Dame nearly do the same. Boo 3:30 starts, boo.
Ticket prices: still approaching breaking point. OSU's game against pretty decent UCF was not a sellout:
Time for
#OSU to stop raising ticket prices? Last week's game was the first under 105,000 since New Mexico St. in 2009.
Bowl ban, yeah, but add it to the pile.
Lloydballin' it? Michigan punted from the Air Force 34 in the first quarter Saturday, causing a couple people to anticipate a twitter rage coming from yours truly. I guess I'm too prone to rages.
I didn't have a problem with it. If you don't think your kicker can hit it, punting is the move, yes even from the 34. I plugged the situation into Advanced NFL Stats's fourth down combobulator and it spake thusly:
|FG Att
|Success Rate:
|EP Success
|EP Fail:
|EP Total:
The field goal is the best option if you've got an NFL kicker. Michigan doesn't.
So then you've got to think you have a 30% shot at converting to make it a 50-50 shot. Yeah, college defenses are more prone to breakdowns, especially Air Force's, but at worst the punt is a close call you can't get exercised about either way.
The clock butchery at the end of the first half did bug me. As a general rule, any time the clock is running after a play and you have >1 timeouts, use it. As soon as they ruled Roundtree in bounds they should have called their first timeout.
For whatever reason, Michigan's had issues with that sort of thing. Last year's Iowa game was the most frustrating example:
Is that a freaking huddle as the ref signals the game clock with 31 seconds on the play clock? Yes.
That's Michigan snapping it seventeen seconds later. /head asplode
Hopefully they get it together before that burns them again.
Adorable child. From the comments of the game column:
I was on my couch, not in the stadium (get off my back, I'm 2500 miles away). I was wearing my t-shirt. My two year old son was beside me, cheering gamely for "Deenarr WOB-inson!" as the team stood on the sidelines before kickoff. (SoullessHack, Jr. refers to both #16 and the entire team as Denard Robinson... although any non-Denard player is "the guy.") It was nice. Nice. Not the gut-churning excitement I've felt every other year. But it was nice. I guess.
Then Denard made the MLB miss. I counted three steps straight upfield and said, calmly, "They're not going to get him." SoullessHack, Jr., though, jumped up on the couch and started screaming, "DENARR WOBINSON DENARR WOBINSON! RUNNING! RUN RUN RUN!" When they cut to the cheering crowd, SHJr took his cue began to clap and jump up and down.
As long as this is not kicking me for three hours it is adorable. (There were children directly in front of and behind me at the Air Force game. Somehow they both kicked me. A lot.)
Etc.: Sticking this way down here because people are going to yell at me for mentioning him, but this shot from SMQ featuring Rich Rodriguez and his kids after the Wildcats upset Oklahoma State reminded me of of all those Rhett and Rich Rodriguez photos from his M days.
It's never too late to link Stuffing the Passer. It's okay to cheer, ND fans! (It's not. Stop it.) Webb on potential 2013 basketball addition Reggie Cameron. Duke may be in some NCAA hot water. I'm so happy SMQ is back. Here's UCLA-Nebraska recapped by Mr. Hinton.
Big Ten Draft O' Snark: The Final Snarkdown
Rounds 1-3: At Jim Leyland's lakeside mansion in Somerset, quarterbacks are divided.
Rounds 4-7: In the War Room of the Toledo Ramada Inn, Heiko is replaced by a mysterious stocky middle-aged man with a mustache.
Rounds 8-12: In the Presidential Suite of of the Ishpeming Red Roof Inn, a 1970 Fiat 500 assumes the commissioner's chair, rules all picks must get 30 mpg.
Rounds 13-17: In a Secret Submarine Headquarters Underneath the North Atlantic, iPhones apparently get zero bars.
Rounds 18-something whatever: Onboard the Voyager II Spacecraft at the Edge of the Solar System, quarterbacks are put through a series of zero-grav tests to determine if there is anything they can't do.
Companion pieces: MGoBlog's All Big Ten Team, Googledoc spreadsheet of handiness.
Weary and ignoring the complaints of abused livers, SETH, HEIKO, ACE, and something that looks like a lanky sheep dog emerge from a secret lair in the PHOSPHATE MINES of the PACIFIC ISLAND OF NAURU. They ask for your ballot…
Seth "Progress" Fisher/Heiko "Progress" Yang/Ace "Progress" Anbender/Brian "Progress" Cook
POLLS ARE NOW OPEN. Go vote!
The Final Snarkdown
OFFENSE: Nathan Scheelhaase (QB, ILL), Fitzgerald Toussaint (RB, M), LeVeon Bell (HB/FB, MSU), Jared Abbrederis (WR, UW), MarQuies Gray (QB/WR, Minn), Kevonte Martin-Manley (WR, Iowa), CJ Fieodorwicz (TE, Iowa), Taylor Lewan (LT, M), Ryan Groy (LG, UW), Matt Stankiewitch (C, PSU), Chris McDonald (RG, MSU), Jack Mewhort (RT, OSU).
DEFENSE: Ra'Shede Hageman (DE, Minnesota), John Simon (DE, OSU), Beau Allen (NT, UW), Akeem Spence (DT, ILL), Jake Ryan (LB, M), Desmond Morgan (LB, M), Denicos Allen (LB, MSU), Terry Hawthorne (CB, ILL), Bradley Roby (CB, OSU), Blake Countess (CB, M), Daimion Stafford (SS, UNL), Christian Bryant (FS, OSU)
SPECIAL TEAMS: Mitch Ewald (K, Indiana), Andrew Maxwell (P, Michigan State), Abbrederis (KR/PR, Wis)
I didn't mean to do this but I ended up with a Rodriguez spread'n'shred circa 2007 with a running quarterback, a damn fast outside back, and a fullback type who can rip off runaway beer truck touchdowns. The offensive line is a lot more POWER based but I figure that's fine since Auburn and others have made the inverted veer and related plays major spread drivers. Then you've got an array of excellent WRs with big catching radius: the deep threat (Abbrederis), the unstoppable guy on intermediate routes (Gray), and a promising TE.
The defense is Greg Mattison.
FINAL SNARKDOWN (by Heiko): Dear Brian: You know that red and gray plaid shirt you wear all the time? You should wear it less. Oh, something mean about his team? Ummmm... None of your QBs have a winning record. I've seen Desmond Morgan in person, and he's still really small and liable to get crushed by offensive linemen. And you drafted two LOLphers.
[The drafters still got some splainin' to do. For the rest of the roundtable, and which school had the most picks, and stuff, HIT THE JUMP.]
Big Ten Draftosnark: The Endening
PICKS were made to start, and
PICKS were made to continue, and
PICKS were made to continue continuing, and
WOW this series got out of hand
We join our COURAGEOUS DRAFTERS on the VOYAGER II SPACECRAFT at THE EDGE OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM. HEIKO is on the clock for the second pick of round WHATEVER.
We put a JUMP in this one because we probably should have been doing that all along.
PICK: Fou Fonoti, OT, Michigan State
CURRENT O: Braxton Miller (QB, OSU), Taylor Martinez (QB/RB, UNL), Patrick Omameh (OG, UM), Fou Fonoti (OT, Michigan State), Kyle Prater (WR, NW), Devin Gardner (QB/WR, UM), DeAnthony Arnett (WR, MSU)
CURRENT D: Michael Buchanan (DE, ILL), Jordan Hill(DT, PSU), Baker Steinkuhler (DT, UNL), Craig Roh (DE, UM), Max Bullough (LB, MSU), Kenny Demens (LB, UM), Ryan Shazier (LB, OSU), J.T. Floyd (CB, UM), Isaiah Lewis (FS, MSU), C.J. Barnett (SS, OSU)
KICKER(S): Brett Maher, K/P, Nebraska
BRIEF EXPLANATION: He had 31 knockdowns, 10 dominators, and allowed zero sacks last season as Michigan State's starting right tackle. I have no idea what some of those things mean, but they all seem like good things.
SNARK: "... poised to blow up in the mold of previous Michigan cornerbacks like Woodson, Hall, and Jackson." Who are you, Angelique Chengelis?
PICK: Brian Mulroe, guard, Northwestern
CURRENT O: Montee Ball (RB, UW), James Vandenberg (QB, IA), Ricky Wagner (OT, UW), Keenan Davis (WR, IA), Travis Frederick (C, UW), Spencer Long (G, NEB), Jake Stoneburner (TE, OSU), Brian Mulroe (G, NW)
CURRENT D: Chris Borland (LB, UW), William Gholston (DE, MSU), Johnny Adams (CB, MSU), Mike Taylor (LB, UW), Ricardo Allen (CB, PUR), Ibraheim Campbell (S, NW), Will Campbell (DT, MICH), Ondre Pipkins (NT, MICH)
BRIEF EXPLANATION: I won't pretend to know a ton about Northwestern's offensive line, so I'll trust Phil Steele (Mulroe: preseason second-team All-B1G), the coaches and media (honorable mention All-B1G in 2011), and the NFL draft boards (CBSSports has Mulrue as NW's top draft prospect) in making this selection. Mulroe has solid size at 6'4", 295, and he's lauded for his athleticism; he'll be the guy pulling when I run POWER. With this pick, I've locked up the clear-cut best interior line in our draft, and it might not be particularly close.
SNARK: See, Heiko, the interior line is the part of your offensive line that... oh, I give up.
PICKS: Thomas Gordon, FS, MICH; and Josh Johnson, CB, Purdue
CURRENT O: Denard Robinson (QB, M), Rex Burkhead (RB, Neb), Jeremy Gallon (Slot, M), Kofi Hughes (WR, Ind), Kenny Bell (WR, Neb), Jacob Pedersen (TE, Wis), Michael Schofield (OT, M), Graham Pocic (OL, Ill), Ricky Barnum (OG, MICH), James Ferentz (C, Iowa)
CURRENT D: John Hankins (NT, OSU), Kawaan Short (3T, Pur), Marcus Rush (DE, MSU), Jon Brown (MLB, Ill), Gerald Hodges (OLB, PSU), Jordan Kovacs (SS, M), Thomas Gordon (FS, M), Micah Hyde (CB, Iowa), Josh Johnson (CB, Pur)
EXPLANATION: Michigan goes into 2012 with its best safety tandem since...? If you can answer that question, you get to be there next time we're trying to figure that out for Hail to the Victors. Anyway I've got both, meaning I have complete and utter immunity from big plays, and now I also get to smugly stand by as Brian tries to explain why my ludicrous fumble recovery rate is all luck, dammit. Gordon isn't the flashiest of free safeties but even if he's Brandent Englemon, with this defense he too can spend most plays reading Infinite Jest.
He gets some help in that endeavor from Johnson, who the Mathlete says was the Big Ten's best cornerback last year. Hammer & Rails is of course biased but..
After having a season where he recorded 64 total tackles, 2 interceptions, and broke up nine passes, Johnson showed us that he is perfectly capable of hanging with the top receivers in the Big Ten.
He's right-sized for the position, can tackle, and his coverage, while knocked because he was operating with no safety help, is no worse than any of the guys taken above, especially the Michigan duo who just went off the board.
SNARK: MarQueis Gray was up to 6'4-250 last I checked. You haven't even drafted Keith Nichol; you've got Andy Mignery.
[ED: After the jump, everyone drafts more quarterbacks. Seriously.]

Several weeks ago Brian sent me an e-mail to say we're going to have a fantasy draft of Big Ten players called "The Draft Where Whoever Picks Denard Wins," and that I was on the clock. (Parts II, III, and IV)
People of the Earth: this is how you recruit for a fantasy league. Actually this is how if you're a college sports site editor you motivate your hypercompetitive (Michigan grads, remember?) staff to become insane experts on the rest of the conference right before football season begins. For that reason, despite quarterbacks chosen out of position and so so much snark, right now we feel as competent as anyone at putting out one of those All-Such-and-Such list things.
The draft is still going on and some of the picks we've made have yet to be revealed, however we have tagged enough positions at this point to post an official-ish pre-season All Big Ten team. There's a few specialists I'll include but won't reveal who drafted them. I'll also follow up either next week or later on this week with a "what we learned about the Big Ten" post that breaks down all the picks by team. This one's about the best by position.
Site note: We're bringing back jumps again so we can fit more content on the front page for you during the season. You see the "Read more" thing below this? CLICK THAT to get to the good stuff.

Codemasters unveils Grid Autosport
Codemasters has announced their latest title in the Grid racing series.
Grid Autosport offers a Grid fans the opportunity to participate proper motorsporting events with a range of disciplines from GT and endurance racing to Formula Three and IndyCar. Even the name is a nod to motorsport fans and it is drawn from a partnership with long-running motorsport magazine Autosport. One thing that is worth noting is that Grid Autosport is to be released on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 rather than next-gen consoles.
Producer, Clive Moody explained the decision, "We're working really hard on our next-gen Ego engine right now - and when we roll it out, we want it to be the best racing engine out there. That takes time, and it's not as if we haven't been working on it for some time. It wasn't really where wanted it to be, I don't think, to produce what I would class as a truly competitive next-gen game coming out in the window we're coming out."
"The second factor is when we were talking to our community, it was one of the first questions we asked them," Moody added. "What about next-gen? When are you planning to upgrade? And no-one in the room had any urgency to move on to those new consoles."
Grid Autosport is due out on June 24th in North America and June 27th in Europe and the UK.
Thanks Eurogamer.

The global analog integrated circuits market has garnered wide spread acclaim due to its diverse functionality, small size, and dynamic applicability, such as utility in automotive application, LED lighting, healthcare monitoring, and collision prevention. Owing to their inherent contraction and flexibility, analog integrated circuits have been incorporated in several sectors such as consumer electronics products, automotive products, biomedical products, and wearable sensor-based devices. Analog ICs are expected to have widespread applications in computing and storage, automotives, communications, consumer electronics, industrial, and medical sectors over the forecast period.
Augmenting demand for electronic devices with sophisticated functionality and technological advancement is anticipated to drive the analog integrated circuits market. Analog integrated circuits play a key role in the functioning of electronic medical equipment, handheld electronic devices, and cars that offer advanced features. Energy-yielding capabilities and dynamic application areas of analog integrated circuits are expected to serve as key drivers for the analog integrated circuits market augmentation. Analog ICs are capable of replacing several humanly sensory functions by serving their core functionality in varied sensors, also to emerge a major driver of analog integrated circuits in biomedical applications field. Recent innovative trends involve integration of multiple application functions onto specific modules by embedding dynamic analog functionality on a single chip. Analog ICs' use in LED lighting applications is gradually progressing owing to their power-efficient functions. LED lighting systems' demand is growing as they provide more brightness and consume less power. LEDs are widely deployed in commercial, industrial, and domestic lighting solutions. LEDs are also favored in the automotive sector; consequently, the demand for power-efficient LEDs is leading to increasing applicability of analog ICs in these diodes.
Market fragmentation increases competition and restrains revenue, slowdown in the economy retards growth, and intense competition continues to abridge prices impacting revenues. Lack of product innovation in specific sectors is expected to hinder revenue growth. Discrete circuit preference over ICs owing to non-space constraints reduces revenues. This is foreseen to act as a major factor to hamper the analog integrated circuits market expansion. Physical and economic limits to sensor integration are anticipated to be a major challenge to analog integrated circuits industry.
The analog integrated circuits market can be segmented by category into application-specific and general purpose analog integrated circuits. Application-specific analog circuits are confined to function in stipulated domains such as consumer electronics, computing devices, automotive, and industrial domains. General purpose analog ICs, function in multiple domains such as amplifiers & comparators, voltage regulators, and data converters. Further, based on vertical sector applicability the analog ICs can be segregated into industrial, administrative, automotive, communications, and consumer electronic sectors. Automotive and industrial sectors are poised to emerge as major application sectors for analog ICs.
Europe is foreseen to emerge as a global analog integrated circuits market leader as several major automobile manufacturers have their production units in Europe. Use of analog ICs in avionic, infrastructural, and industrial applications would drive the analog integrated circuits market growth in North America. In Asia Pacific, China is anticipated to maintain a course of high growth on account of heaving rate of consumer electronics by the tech-savvy population. Automotive leaders such as Toyota, Volkswagen, Renault, Ford, and BMW have largely encouraged the analog integrated circuits market growth in Europe.
Analog IC's vendor market can be bifurcated into merchant analog IC companies and small-scale analog IC fabrication companies. Merchant analog vendors deploy a specific set of strategies to lead the market such as, special product design skills, extensive breadth of product-sets, extensive worldwide distribution and support network, and competitive price. Smaller companies focus only on the specific product-domain they deal in. For example, Sitronix (LCD drivers), Silicon Mitus (power management), GMT (power management, audio, switches), Asia-Leadtrend (power management), Taiwan Semiconductor (voltage regulators, discretes, and opamps), and Richtek (LED drivers, power management) are some of the market players focusing on specific domains.
The global analog integrated circuits industry is expected to be dominated by few top players such as Analog Devices Inc., Texas Instruments Inc., STMicroelectronics NV, Infineon Technologies AG, and Qualcomm Inc.

'Ugh… nobody wins with a headbutt!'
I bet this ball came from some special sheep :)
When I was in High school, P, E. someone gave a football a mighty kick, Not more than 15 feet away, it hit Johnny Reiter in the face!
Naturally, someone blurted out "Thats using your head Johnny!"
According to a report I heard, soccer players who routinely head the ball suffer a measurable 10% loss in intelligence. And according to Leno, bowlers who head the ball suffer a measurable 90% loss in intelligence.

Letters To Ed :-)
"We've been duped by the Republicans. Kentucky Sen. and minority leader Mitch McConnell in a news conference one day after the election, stated that the single and sole goal of the GOP over the next two years is: to make Barack Obama a single term president. What an arrogant and obnoxious goal and statement. There agenda before the election was to get votes by promising that there first goals were jobs, the economy and health care reform. It seems their goal is to grab power, not to do things for the people that are in need of jobs and or unemployment pay, health care for those that don't have it, and the people losing their homes. This is the same party that wanted the auto plants and their suppliers to go out of business. We are just coming back from what they did to this country, and now we have them back to do the same things to our country again. What a mess the next two years is going to bring to this country. Talk about partisanship." Carl D. Leow Rogers Cit

Hey buttock face! You know NOTHING about my life, you phony 'christian'. And 'free'man, was there an 'antidote' for phony 'christian' murderers of Native Americans? You enjoy touting smallpox, which has nothing to do with genocide. This is all well documented and all you can do is hide your face in the sand an pretend this never happened. You have NO sense of history, and NO reasonable opinion. Yes, stupid, look it up! There are starving, beat down, exploited, abused children that actually exist, and have actually existed, and you stupid clowns can tout 'right to Life' all you want, but your ignorance is exposed with your adherence to dogma and the silly notion that life begins at entry into the uterus of sperm. You should have run down the leg of your father.

Normentalpatient, did you know J.D. Salinger? I mean, did you dictate your early life history to him so that he could write "The Catcher In The Rye"?
I ask only because the troubled youth in the story sounds very much like you in the present. Phony this, phony that, phony your brother, mother, and every other.
Might you, if Normanly possible, include one scintilla of substance regarding why John Stossel is a "phony"? Is baloney or macaroni phony? Is a coney phony? Is being stoney phony? How about a zamboni? How phony is that pony? And what's your favorite pizza topping, pepperoni?
Anyway, have a nice lunch today. Grab Joni and Tony for minestrone, rigatoni, and some non-boney abalone. Yummy Yummoni!

Actually Romney said "health and life of the mother" but he said 'health' fast and quietly. I got a kick out of the way he tried to sneak that past his sheeeple who want to save the zygote and starve the children.

Just cultivate it Jaxie. It's still alive, deep down in there. You were born with it.
When a man is mining for gold, he understands that he must move away tons and tons of dirt to find that gold, but he doesn't go about the business looking for the dirt. He looks for the gold to take out of the dirt...and if you're looking for gold, that's exactly what you'll find. Look for the gold, and cast off the dirt.
There's still some gold in you Jaxie. I can see it.

There's that pesky "protect the life of the mother" thing. You should have told him about no mother ever having to have her life saved with an abortion.
Posted 1068 days ago.
"Romney has said time and again during his 2008 and 2012 presidential campaigns that he is "unapologetically pro-life" but does not oppose abortions in instances of rape and incest or when the procedure is necessary to protect the life of a mother."

But, perhaps you do have a remnant of a conscience after all, and it was pricked.
That's good Jaxie. Cultivate it. There's still hope for you.

I don't think he's pro-abortion. Prove it, with current quotes or some-such. You said he was a democrat. I wanted Newt Gingrich or Herman Cain, remember?
Nevertheless, I feel about him (Romney) the same way I feel about John Boehner. Another soggy toast, invertebrate.

As long as there's an (R) by his name on the ballot, it is OK.

Let's see. Anti-abortion and votes for pro-abortion candidates. There must be a term for someone like that.

'Real Progress': Parsing China's Censorship Protests
A little more than a week after journalists at Southern Weekly, one of China's most daring newspapers, clashed with propaganda authorities in southern China's Guangdong province over alleged censorship of a New Year's editorial, China watchers are still trying to suss out what the conflict — which inspired anti-censorship protests both online and in the streets – means for the future of media in China.
To try to get a better handle on the context surrounding the fracas, China Real Time got in touch with Ying Zhu, a professor of media studies at City University of New York, who recently took a deep look at China's state broadcaster in "Two Billion Eyes: The Story of China Central Television."
While not shocked by the Southern Weekly journalists' conflict with propaganda officials, Ms. Zhu described the secondary protests it inspired as a sign of "real progress" in Chinese society. Edited excerpts after the jump:

Ghost01 said Like sports in general, it is nothing but a waste of time and money. Instead of billions spent on this useless garbage yearly, pay off our national debt with all that $ and fix this country once and for all. well, you understand how the economy works even less than I do. Not having sports isn't going to make more money available for those other things. Sports, as well as, other economic activities, generate wealth. If all that stopped, who would be better off?
Love it, too. Means it's cooked – not instant goo.

Inaugural Shadyside Invite set for Saturday
SHADYSIDE – The inaugural Shadyside Cross Country Invitational is set to host an eight-team field Saturday morning.
It's not only the first time that Tiger Town has hosted an invite, but it's believed to be the first time it's hosted a cross country meet of any kind.
"We're looking forward to hosting this," said Shadyside head coach and meet director Stu Rynkievich. "We're excited to stay close to home and show off our facilities and we think the course will be challenging."
Rynkievich designed the 3.1 mile course, which he called "extremely fan friendly."
The start and finish line will be on Fleming Field. The race will begin at the south end of the field and head out the north gate under the scoreboard and run around Leona Middle School, onto the Tigers' baseball field and then into Hillview Park.
Both the mile and two-mile markers are inside the park and the course contains only road crossings, meaning the majority of the race will be on grass.
"It's going to be a hilly course," Rynkievich said.
"We're expecting slower times than maybe what some of the kids are accustomed to."
The Shadyside meet was actually on people's schedules for the 2012 season, but Rynkievich and his staff of volunteers just weren't ready to proceed and ended up cancelling the meet.
The action will begin at 9 a.m. with the junior high girls and that'll be followed by the junior high boys.
After an elementary kids race, the two varsity races are slated to begin at approximately 10:45 a.m. with the girls, which will be followed by the boys' race.
Slated to join the host Tigers are Bellaire, Buckeye Local, River, Indian Creek, Harrison Central, Barnesville and Linsly.
Staskey can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com

New PvP Build after rebalance
1 Attachment(s)
That's the build after the rebalance, I started playing again but I don't want to go for those stupid abusive builds that involve maxing bombs and fog, but they seem to help greatly for stage, and I have a lot of extra SP so I'm not sure what to invest it in. I might get TLS to lvl 5 for the extra effect.
even a lvl 1 fog does insane damage
ftk on ground is doing about 6k dmg
lvl 1 builds without fog are the only ones who arent abusive at all (maybe tls a bit but thats it)

Wisconsin panel approves $10.6 million for domestic violence center
The state will provide $10.6 million to help build a Family Justice Center in Milwaukee that will consolidate domestic violence services and programs under one roof.
At its meeting Wednesday, the State Building Commission approved the $10.6 million for the project. The state will borrow the money to pay for the project.
The new center is a partnership between Children's Hospital of Wisconsin, Sojourner Family Peace Center and others, including the Milwaukee County district attorney's office and the Milwaukee Police Department.
The 78,000-square-foot center at 619 W. Walnut St. will include a 56-bed domestic violence shelter, along with mental health services, a legal clinic, and an education and conference center.
"This project will make an efficient use of resources as we look to consolidate law enforcement, prosecution and child welfare resources for those affected by domestic violence," said Gov. Scott Walker, the chair of the building commission.
"This project will provide better care and treatment for mothers and their children to the greater Milwaukee area, and will also benefit our state as a whole."
The cost of building the center will be $21 million. The $10.6 million from the state will be a dollar-for-dollar match with money raised privately, said Carmen Pitre, executive director of Sojourner.
Sojourner, an emergency domestic violence shelter for women and children in Milwaukee, has embarked on a $26 million capital campaign for construction and programs at the new center. With the state contribution, about $17 million has been raised, Pitre said.
"We appreciate Governor Walker's leadership, the support of our legislative leaders and partners throughout the state, and the State Building Commission's approval of the Family Justice Center project," said Peggy Troy, CEO of Children's Hospital of Wisconsin.
"The state's support of Children's Hospital of Wisconsin and Sojourner Family Peace Center means families impacted by violence will have integrated resources available all under one roof — physical and emotional caregiving, educational, judicial and advocacy resources."
Pitre said, "Domestic violence and violence in general is more complicated and more complex, and this is one response to transforming that and bringing people together in a way we haven't done before."
Zimmerman Architectural Studios was selected to design the facility and Mortenson Construction was selected to build it, Pitre said.

M. Night Shyamalan, Marti Noxon bring 'Proof' to Syfy
'The Sixth Sense' helmer is expected to direct the pilot
Syfy has ordered the pilot "Proof" from filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan and TV veteran Marti Noxon.
Formally announced on Friday (August 3), the "Proof" pilot is written by Shyamalan and Noxon, who will both serve as executive producers, along with Ashwin Rajan from Shyamalan's Blinding Edge shingle.
The Syfy release announcing the deal says that Shyamalan "intends to direct" the pilot.
Of the "Proof" plot, Syfy says it focuses on the son of a billionaire tech genius who offers a large reward for proof of life after death following the death of his parents. Several of those plot details certainly sound like familiar Shyamalan tropes.
This would be Shylaman's first foray into scripted TV, though the "Sixth Sense" and "Lady in the Water" auteur previously worked with Syfy (or Sci Fi) on the 2004 hoax documentary "The Buried Secret of M. Night Shyamalan." He most recently finished production on the feature "After Earth," starring Will Smith.
Simultaneously loved and hated by fans of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," Noxon's other TV credits include "Point Pleasant," "Mad Men" and, most recently, "Glee."

The last extensive survey of possible rhino range in the last known range state, Cameroon in 2006, failed to find any rhino or signs of rhino (dung, spoor or signs of feeding) but did find evidence of widespread wildlife poaching and local rhino monitors faking rhino spoor in the absence of any surviving rhino. There have not been any reports of any sightings or signs since 2006. Given the wildlife poaching taking place, lack of political will andconservation effort by Cameroon conservation authorities in the past, and increasing illegal demand for rhino horn and associated increased commercial rhino poaching in other range states, it is highly probable that this subspecies is now extinct.

Western black rhinoceros
The western black rhinoceros (Diceros bicornis longipes) or West African black rhinoceros was a subspecies of the black rhinoceros declared extinct by the IUCN in 2011.[1][2] They were believed to have been genetically different from other rhino subspecies.[3] It was once widespread in the savanna of sub-Saharan Africa, but its numbers declined due to poaching. The western black rhinoceros resided primarily in Cameroon, but recent surveys have failed to locate any individuals.
This species was named Diceros bicornis longipes by Ludwig Zukowsky in 1949. The word "longipes" is of Latin origin, combining longus ("far, long") and pēs ("foot"). This refers to the species' long distal limb segment, one of many special characteristics of the species. Other distinct features of the western black rhino include the square based horn, first mandibular premolar retained in the adults, simple formed crochet of the maxillary premolar, and premolars commonly possessed crista.[4]
The population has first discovered in Southwest Chad, Central African Republic(CAR), North Cameroon, and Northeast Nigeria.[5]
The western black rhinoceros measured 3–3.75 m (9.8–12.3 ft) long, had a height of 1.4–1.8 m (4.6–5.9 ft), and weighed 800–1,400 kg (1,800–3,100 lb).[6] It had two horns, the first measuring 0.5–1.4 m (1.6–4.6 ft) and the second 2–55 cm (0.79–21.65 in). Like all Black Rhinos, they were browsers, and their common diet included leafy plants and shoots around their habitat. During the morning or evening, they would browse for food. During the hottest parts of the day, they slept or wallowed.[7] They inhabited much of sub-Saharan Africa.[8] Many people believe their horns held medicinal value, which lead to heavy poaching. However, this belief has no grounding in scientific fact.[8] Like most black rhinos, they are believed to have been nearsighted and would often rely on local birds, such as the red-billed oxpecker, to help them detect incoming threats.[9]
Habitat and finding[edit]
The black rhino, of which the western black rhinoceros is a subspecies, was most commonly located in several countries towards the southeast region of the continent of Africa. The native countries of the black rhino included: Angola, Kenya, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, United Republic of Tanzania, Zimbabwe, Ethiopia, Cameroon, Chad, Rwanda, Botswana, Malawi, Swaziland, and Zambia.[10] There are several subspecies found in the western and southern countries of Tanzania through Zambia, Zimbabwe and Mozambique, to the northern and north-western and north-eastern parts of South Africa. The Black Rhino's most abundant population was found in South Africa and Zimbabwe, with a smaller population found in southern Tanzania. The Western subspecies of the Black Rhino was last recorded in Cameroon but is now considered to be extinct.[2] However, other subspecies were introduced again into Botswana, Malawi, Swaziland and Zambia.[10]
Population and decline[edit]
The western black rhinoceros was heavily hunted in the beginning of the 20th century, but the population rose in the 1930s after preservation actions were taken. As protection efforts declined over the years, so did the number of western black rhinos. By 1980 the population was in the hundreds. No animals are known to be held in captivity, however it was believed in 1988 that approximately 20–30 were being kept for breeding purposes.[11] Poaching continued and by 2000 only an estimated 10 survived. In 2001, this number dwindled to only five. While it was believed that around thirty still existed in 2004, this was later found to be based upon falsified data.[12]
The Western Black Rhino emerged about 7 to 8 million years ago. It is a sub-species of the black rhino. For much of the 1900s, its populations was the highest out of all the rhino species at almost 850,000 individuals. By 1995, the number dropped to 2,500 individuals and now the sub-species Western Black Rhino is officially declared extinct with its last sighting reported in 2006.[13] There was a 96% population decline in black rhinos, including the western black rhino, between 1970 and 1992.[14] Widespread poaching is concluded to be partly responsible for bringing the species close to extinction. The Western black rhinoceros was last seen in Cameroon's Northern Province in 2006. The Diceros bicornis longipes was declared officially extinct in 2011.[12]
In 2006, for six months, the NGO Symbiose and veterinarians Isabelle and Jean-François Lagrot with their local teams examined the area of the Diceros bicornis longipes' common roaming ground in the northern province of Cameroon to assess the status of the last population of the western black rhino subspecies. For this experiment, 2500 km of land was surveyed but no sign of rhino presence was found over the course of six months. The teams had concluded that the rhino was extinct approximately five years before it was officially declared so by the IUCN.[12]
Traditional Chinese medicine[edit]
In the 1950s, Mao Zedong effectively encouraged traditional Chinese medicine in an attempt to counter Western influences. While attempting to modernize this industry, several species were hunted. According to the official data published by the SATCM, 11,146 botanical and 1,581 zoological species, as well as 80 minerals were used.[15] The Western Black Rhino was also hunted due to the value of its horn, which was believed to have the power to cure specific ailments and was effective at detecting poisons (due to its high alkaline content). This, along with the lack of conservation efforts from the IUCN, contributed to the extinction of the subspecies.[16]
Other uses for the horn[edit]
Rhino horns were used in making ceremonial knife handles called "Janbiya".[17] A janbiya is a curved, double edged dagger.[18] The saifani material, which comes from the horn of the rhinoceros, is easily distinguishable and is used as a symbol of wealth and status due to how expensive it is. This is another reason why poaching persisted and the Western black rhinos went extinct.
Rhino horns are very valuable and can cost up to $100,000 per kg in places where they are popular like Vietnam. An average horn varies from weighing about 1 to 3 kg each. Some respected doctors in Vietnam vouch for the rhino horns' cancer curing properties.[19]

2004 Subaru Forester ProblemsCheck Engine Light Due to Failed Catalytic Converter
The Check Engine Light may illuminate because of low catalytic converter efficiency. This same issue may cause the car to fail the State Smog Test if one is required.
Sometimes the Check Engine Light illuminates because the computer detects misfires. Subaru released an improved spark plug wire set to solve the problem. The ignition coil should also be inspected for carbon tracks or short circuits between the contacts
The front oxygen (air fuel ratio) sensor element may develop a crack, causing the Check Engine Light to illuminate. Subaru has recalled certain models to replace sensors that may fail. The Subaru service program number is WXW-80, this is not a government mandated recall.
2004 Subaru Forester Questionswhat is the spark plug replacement interval? (1 answer)
2.5L forester x automatic. does it need or take platinum plugs or another type and the benefits if more than one type
check engine light stays on w/code P0139.Same day/later code:P0032
There are also exhaust leaks
Would broken compressor wire result in overcharged system? Air worked fine last summer. What should be replaced in that situation. Tech wants to replace compressor and rec/dryer with condenser.
2004 Subaru Forester RecallsFront Lower Control Arms May Break
The front lower control arms may break at the hanger brackets due to corrosion. This corrosion is commonly a result of the hanger bracket being exposed to salty conditions, such as roads where salt is used as a snow melting agent.
