None of us can be truly free while our brothers and sisters are still held in slavery.
Do you agree? Personally, I think it's disgusting how the slave trade was supposedly abolished two hundred years ago, and yet is still going on, more than ever before.
Besides the fact that people are held in slavery today - quite literally - I think there are other forms of slavery.
Slave to money, slave to power, slave to selfishness ... Slave to love, slave to hate, slave to rituals ... Slave to war, slave to inner conflict, slave to mental unrest ...
Personally, I believe that we can never be free until we're at peace inside. Until we're free inside. Until there's harmony within the songs of our brains.

Drink plenty of fluids, such as water or juice. This will help dilute mucous secretions and promote drainage. Avoid beverages that contain caffeine or alcohol, as they can be dehydrating. Drinking alcohol can also worsen the swelling of the lining of the sinuses and nose. Moisten your sinus cavities. Drape a towel over your head as you breathe in the vapor from a bowl of hot water. Keep the vapor directed toward your face. Or take a hot shower, breathing in the warm, moist air. This will help ease pain and help mucus drain. Apply warm compresses to your face. Place warm, damp towels around your nose, cheeks and eyes to ease facial pain...Consult ent specialist for definitive treatment.

London - Lukas Rosol, the shock Wimbledon conqueror of Rafael Nadal, returned to familiar anonymity on Saturday when Germany's Philipp Kohlschreiber sent him crashing out in the third round.Czech world 100 Rosol had caused one of the greatest upsets in the history of the sport when he beat world number two Nadal in five sets in the second round under the Centre Court roof on Thursday.But, in the less glamourous surroundings of Court 12, normal service was resumed as German 27th seed Kohlschreiber, who had also beaten Nadal on grass at Halle two weeks ago, eased to a 6-2, 6-3, 7-6 (8/6) victory and a first appearance in the fourth round."I was feeling good today, but it was a little bit windy and that didn't help me a lot. He was playing pretty good and he didn't gave me a lot of chances," said Rosol, who will hit the ground with a bump next week when he plays a second-tier Challenger event in Germany."I hope I have shown that I can play with anyone. That's what I feel. And these players are going to see they can lose against me."Kohlschreiber said the more intimate surroundings of Court 12 suited him rather than Rosol."I knew it was a danger to play him but I had a good game plan. I mixed up the pace a lot, he doesn't like to move too much into the court and I figured out the perfect tactic," said Kohlschreiber."I was happy not to be playing Nadal where the chances would have been 90-10; against Rosol it was more 50-50."I just hoped that he would not have another day like that against me. But all the conditions were different today. It was windy, it was a smaller court and the wind means he can't hit the ball full power."Kohlschreiber will tackle American qualifier Brian Baker for a place in the quarter-finals.

I was doing a Domain/Exchange/RDS migration for a client this week. He had some Macros that he┬Āused for printing. Now Macros are something I know very little about. So I had made it clear, if he had problems with them, I would not be the best person to ask.
So when the call came in, that they were having problems with Macros I cringed! As it turned out, the problem wasn't the Macros at all, it was the 'Trust Center' Settings in Word.

About MeHi my name is Kevin.
Thanks for checking out my port, its a pleasure to be spotted by you! I am an aspiring model and looking to work in the industry professionally so I am creating this page to get further experience. I've always been interested in modelling so I'm interested in working with a variety of photoghaphers to reach my goal.
I do have experience in modelling as I have done several shoots now including Private Portfolios, Hair styling , Artworks and featured in a Calendar and Greeting Cards which have been published.
Although I have pictures uploaded that show my bum I don't normally do nude shoots, however if they have a genuine concept attached to them they are possible. Please note though I don't shoot nude and artistic nude for free, so if a photographer would like me to do nude or suggestive work then the subject should be discussed prior to a shoot and all details agreed upon.
Please note as well, pornographic shoots are a no no!
I am looking for paid work, but would be willing to work with photographers who might add a different perspective to help me build my portfolio on a TFCD basis if it is appropriate.
I am willing to travel however travel costs will need to be covered and I must be able to bring someone with me if I choose.
If you would like to work with me, please feel free to message me and if you can include details of the shoot you're after e.g compensation, purpose of the shoot and the theme/concept, that would be great.
Photographers, tv producers and other models who may be interested in working with me please feel free to contact me.
I am not agency represented at present but I am open to offers
I can't wait to work with you, and hope to hear from you soon!

Jeffri Chadiha of ESPN.com believes Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson already resembles future Hall of Famer Tom brady.
There are already too many eerie similarities between Wilson and Tom Brady to think Wilson isn't embarking on a career that could one day compare favorably with that of the New England Patriots legend. Both quarterbacks were largely overlooked coming out of college (with Wilson falling into the third round of the 2012 draft and Brady famously lasting until the sixth round of the 2000 draft). They also won their first Super Bowl in their second seasons, as Wilson just led Seattle to a victory over the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl XLVIII. Wilson also has a strong defense and running game around him, which were the very assets that helped Brady blossom in his early years.
Chadiha says the Patriots didn't turn Brady loose right away. He was slowly brought along as a passer the way Wilson has been.
It's still doubtful that Wilson will be hoisting as many Lombardi trophies as Brady did at the start of his New England career — the Patriots won three Super Bowls in the quarterback's first four seasons as a starter — but that doesn't mean greatness isn't in his future. Wilson already has been named to two Pro Bowls and proved himself to be one of the best young quarterbacks in the league. As much as his current success still revolves around being an exceptionally talented game manager, you can't argue that the potential isn't there for bigger things. Brady was just as limited in the initial stages of his time in New England, right before the Patriots turned him loose on the NFL.
Many people tend to forget that aspect of Brady's brilliance. He didn't become the dominant quarterback he is today until after the Patriots won those three Super Bowls between the 2001 and 2004 seasons. Brady didn't even throw for 4,000 yards until his fifth year starting. He also didn't surpass the 30-touchdown mark until 2007, when he set a then-league record with 50 scoring passes.
Below is my take on Chadiha's article.

Syrian troops fired bullets and tear gas to disperse thousands of protesters yesterday, according to activists, as state media reported that a roadside bomb killed 10 soldiers.
Protesters spilled on to the streets in cities and towns across Syria, calling for the downfall of President Bashar al-Assad and chanting in support of rebel forces. Protests were reported in the capital Damascus and its suburbs, as well as in the northern city of Aleppo, the central regions of Hama and Homs, in eastern towns near the Iraq border and in the southern Daraa province.
In Paris, the French Foreign Minister, Alain Juppé, said the international community had to live up to its responsibilities in Syria and prepare for the possible failure of a fragile peace plan. He said that if special envoy Kofi Annan's peace plan "doesn't function, we have to envisage other methods".
A ceasefire that went into effect last week has been unravelling, but the truce is still seen as the most viable way to end the bloodshed that has killed more than 9,000 people since the uprising against Assad began 13 months ago. The UN has sent seven international observers into Syria, with the hopes of boosting the numbers soon.

Variations On A Pull-Up Jumper
At my childhood home in Ann Arbor, a framed photo is propped up on the bookshelf in my brother's old room. It shows my brother, Jack, and me with a close family friend in the cheap seats of The Palace of Auburn Hills. It was the spring of 1995, and I was seven years old. I couldn't look more excited to be there, the smile on my face borderline cartoonish.
My father, a Detroit native and Michigan grad, had moved the family from San Francisco to Ann Arbor less than two years prior. In that time, he'd introduced me to Michigan football and Red Wings hockey; my brother and I alternated fall Saturdays with him at the Big House, and early summer evenings were reserved for watching playoff hockey in the living room. Dad was never a big basketball guy, though, so I had to look elsewhere to find an NBA rooting interest.
My father's business partner lived in Ann Arbor at the time. Gail was a Boston native and, naturally, a Celtics fan—"The Celtics will rise again," she'd like to say—and she also acted as a second mother to Jack and me. When my parents wanted a break from raising the two of us, we'd spend the night at Gail's apartment. That was where she introduced us to basketball; one of my most vivid childhood memories is sitting on her bed, eating popcorn and watching J.R. Rider win the '94 Slam Dunk Contest with his between-the-legs "East Bay Funk" dunk.
Gail also introduced us to Michael Jordan, and like most everyone of my generation, I couldn't get enough of watching him play. He'd retired to play baseball, of course, but we'd pop in Bulls championship VHS tapes and marvel at the greatest. When I got home, I'd go to the backyard and play on the Little Tykes hoop set up on our brick patio, throwing down one-handed—and in my mind, buzzer-beating—dunks with my tongue out, just like Mike. Though I also watched the Pistons, rooted for them, collected their sports cards, I never pretended to be Grant Hill or Joe Dumars. If you're not the best in your dreams, why have dreams?
On March 18th, 1995, I was in the midst of one of these backyard fantasy sessions. My mother rarely interrupted these except to call me in for dinner. This time, though, she walked out of the back door bearing an important message.
"He's back."
This was how, less than a month later, I'd be photographed at the home of the Detroit Pistons wearing a Bulls hat and Michael Jordan Birmingham Barons shirt. Jack wore a similar outfit. Gail, the Celtics fan, donned a Bulls sweatshirt. Some athletes transcend sports fandom.
My lasting memory of that night is seeing Jordan, wearing #45 and playing his way into shape, commanding the full attention of every spectator. He may not have been at the peak of his game, but the best player on the court was obvious to everyone in the building. From the cheap seats, my eyes rarely left Jordan, awestruck by his effortless greatness.
The box score shows that MJ scored 29 points that night, going 12/23 from the field while adding nine rebounds and nine assists; a great game, sure, but not one that would leave a lifelong impression on a budding sports fanatic if not for the nature by which it was achieved—with complete ease and confidence, Jordan moved through the game like he was starring in a play for which only he knew the script.
The box score also shows that Scottie Pippen had the night off, Allen Houston and Terry Mills combined to hit 10/13 three-pointers, and Joe Dumars dished out 13 assists. I remember none of these things, just watching Michael Jordan lead the Bulls to victory and going home happy.
Last Thursday, I walked past Michael Jordan's statue and into Gate 3 ½ of the United Center, though a winding hallway adorned with photos of other Bulls greats, going by Jordan's old locker room before finding a spot in the media workroom. Michigan's opener in the Big Ten Tournament was the first road basketball game I've covered this season, so I immediately checked the seating chart—I get stressed in unfamiliar settings and wanted to know exactly where I needed to be when the game started.
As it turned out, press row at the United Center is courtside—unlike the Crisler Center, where the media is seated in the upper bowl—and I had a spot near the end of the second row. I've watched a lot of basketball, but this would be a new perspective. When covering games, I try to act like I've been there before, maintain a certain level of professional decorum, but when I got to my seat I couldn't help but pull out my phone and snap a picture of the view:
As a blogger/fan working among full-time beat reporters, covering this year's Michigan team has presented a challenge. The Wolverines have not just won in a way I've never experienced, they've done so while churning out the highlights; every instinct I have is to leap out of my seat and yell after each alley-oop, twisting layup, step-back three, or go-ahead jumper. This, of course, is not acceptable behavior in the working press area. I've been forced to perfect the subtle lean back in my seat, eyebrows arched, mouth slightly agape, reserving a slight shake of the head for the best of plays.
No player has elicited that response more than Trey Burke, for obvious reasons. On a team as talented as Michigan, his skill stands head-and-shoulders above the rest, even if he's usually the smallest guy on the floor. While the others wear their emotions on their sleeve and struggle to consistently play their role, Burke wears the same expression as he goes about his business—calm yet intense, and utterly composed at all times.
He looks this way while making opponents defend air with his hesitation crossover, or throwing a pinpoint lob, or doing his best Rajon Rondo impression, or doing his best Dirk Nowitzki impression, or sneaking up to block Aaron Craft from behind, or picking Keith Appling clean at halfcourt and throwing down the winning dunk.
The Look was there for the second half of Thursday's game. Michigan came out of halftime with just a two-point lead on the lowly Nittany Lions; Burke had started slowly, just 3/9 from the field, and it felt like the rest of the team was waiting for him to take charge.
The Wolverines were now shooting on the basket directly in front of me, giving me an ideal view of the Trey Burke Experience. Three minutes into the half, Burke inbounded the ball to Tim Hardaway Jr., took the return feed, and calmly drilled a corner three, standing no more than six feet in front of me. I turned into that wide-eyed kid again, and would stay that way for the remainder of the game, as Burke poured in 13 second-half points and the Wolverines pulled away, eventually winning by 17.
One moment in particular left me shaking my head in disbelief while I suppressed every urge to go into full-on fan mode. One of Burke's go-to moves off the pick and roll is to stop his drive on a dime at the free-throw line and rise for a quick, unguardable pull-up jumper. With just under 13 minutes left, Burke took a Jordan Morgan screen and made his way into the lane, briefly checking over his shoulder to locate his defender, PSU's D.J. Newbill, who was trailing him after fighting over Morgan's pick.
In the moment that Burke peered over his shoulder, Penn State center Sasa Borovnjak—who'd been cautiously ceding ground—stepped up hard. At 6'9", Borovnjak gave Burke, listed at a generous 6'0", a sudden and tall obstacle. Normally, Burke likes to shoot that pull-up jumper like Chauncey Billups shoots his free throws—on a line, drilling that spot on the back of the rim that great shooters always seem to find. This time, however, that trajectory was no longer an option.
It's barely perceptible on film, but what Burke did next is what separates him from the rest of the country—and every Michigan player I've had the opportunity to watch play. With an ever-so-subtle double-clutch, Burke shifted his right hand an inch or so to the underside of the basketball, then released a high-arcing shot that barely eluded Borovnjak's outstretched fingers. The ball hit nothing but twine.
Burke momentarily held his shooting pose, as if to show the world that it's really as simple as this. For him, at least, it is.
The crowd reacted as they had for most of Burke's baskets: with polite applause. This is what we've come to expect from him. We're jaded by a 20-year-old sophomore.
Burke would hit two strikingly similar shots later in the half, each recalling the one before but noticeably different in execution. I've included his highlights from the game in the above video. What strikes me the most isn't Burke's skill in shooting, passing, dribbling, or even on-ball defense, a part of his game that's seemingly come out of nowhere in the latter half of the season. It's Gus Johnson—that Gus Johnson—barely changing the inflection of his voice as he relays Burke's latest masterpiece to the television audience.
The next afternoon, Burke couldn't will Michigan to a victory over Wisconsin, though not for lack of trying. With the Wolverines down ten points with just over five minutes left, Burke almost single-handedly pulled the team back within four, recording a steal, two free throws on the ensuing foul, two more baskets, and even a block in the next 2 ½ minutes—his only miss in that span led directly to a Mitch McGary putback. The comeback stalled there as the defense faltered, but in an otherwise dreadful game Burke once again reminded everyone why he should be the national player of the year.
Burke put up 19 points and seven assists in that game, almost exactly matching his season average for both categories. This season, the question has ceased to be whether he'll produce—he's scored 15 points or more in every Big Ten game—but how hard he'd have to work to get there and if he'd have sufficient help along way. The Badgers made it a struggle—Burke took 22 shots, making only eight—and even then Burke's misses were just barely off the mark. Left with no margin for error, it felt like Burke was mere inches away from dragging his team to victory anyway.
Much like the peripheral players faded from that night at Auburn Hills, eventually my memories of the Wisconsin loss, the late-season swoon, the crappy perimeter defense, they'll all be lost to time, or at least need to be jarred into clarity by a Google search. What will stick is Trey Burke, expressionless, pulling up for that right-hand floater, each one nearly identical yet perceptibly different.
Incidentally, Michigan returns to the scene of my dalliance with sports bigamy on Thursday. I will not be there, having intentionally missed the deadline to apply for a credential. I want to experience Burke's (likely) final games as a Wolverine as my seven-year-old self did Michael Jordan's comeback: free to wear my team's colors, leap out of my seat, and holler when a rare talent pulls off moves most of us save for backyard dreams.
Wisconsin AARRRGGGHHH, Michigan FFFFUUUUUUU
Halftime stats on the left, final stats on the right, via scacchoops.com
If you're expecting a reasoned, informative recap of the game, I highly recommend stopping right now and looking elsewhere.
Still here? If so, you are either in search of schadenfreude or have a remarkably strong will to make your life miserable.
Michigan lost to Wisconsin 68-59 in a complete abomination of a "basketball" game. The halftime box score resembles something from a middle school junior varsity game in which all the players are blackout drunk. The Wolverines held a three-point lead at the break, courtesy of Wisconsin's inability to hit anything (5/29 from the field). The Badgers made it appear, momentarily, like Michigan had discovered how to play defense.
Then the second half began, and the Wolverines remained stagnant on offense while entirely forgetting how to guard the perimeter. After hitting 2/13 shots from beyond the arc in the first half, Wisconsin connected on 6/9 three-pointers in the second—most of their looks came without so much as a hand in the shooter's general vicinity, let alone a legitimate contest.
Trey Burke did his best to stop the bleeding, scoring 15 of his 19 points in the second half, and Tim Hardaway Jr. (14 points, 5/9 FGs) admirably returned from a sprained ankle to knock down a couple big shots. Nobody else cracked double digits, however, and any semblance of an offense rapidly devolved into the "Trey, go do something" strategy. Burke was forced to jack up 15 shots in the final 20 minutes; no other Wolverine attempted more than four.
Major culprits included, well, pretty much everyone. Ryan Evans scored nine of his 13 in the second half, abusing Glenn Robinson III and Hardaway down low—Robinson struggled so much that Spike Albrecht took his spot in the lineup down the stretch. Jordan Morgan started but played just eight horrible minutes, turning the ball over three times, completely unable to hold onto the basketball. Nik Stauskas went 1/8 from the field. Burke had an uncharacteristic four turnovers, though given the circumstances it's difficult to lay much blame on him.
A guy who shoots free-throw jump shots, a redheaded Art Garfunkel, and Ben "#@*#$@" Brust combined for 28 second-half points, going 4/8 from two and a perfect 5/5 from three. If there's a College Hoops Fan Hell, it is watching that game on a continuous loop while Bo Ryan waves the last bottle of whiskey in existence in your face, refusing to let you drown your sorrows.
Michigan will still play in the NCAA tournament, of course, and there's even a chance that I'm willing to watch basketball by then. They won't play Wisconsin, mercifully.
F*** Wisconsin.
Michigan 83, Penn State 66

Mitch McGary snatched the rebound out of the air, turned towards the Michigan bench, and let out a guttural yell that could be heard from across the court.
Michigan had looked listless—yes, again—to begin the game against Penn State. The Nittany Lions jumped out to a 14-3 lead after Jordan Morgan couldn't finish three layup attempts and the Wolverines as a whole couldn't slow down Penn State's pick and roll. Enter McGary, who ended PSU's run with a layup, then overcame a missed breakaway dunk to record a first-half double-double.
The McGary Growl came with the score tied at 16, and his histrionics immediately lifted the spirits of the players on the bench—and on the court. On the next possession, Nik Stauskas sunk a three, and the Wolverines wouldn't trail for the remainder of the game, pulling away late for a comfortable 17-point win. When called upon to infuse energy to a team that couldn't shake their previous struggles against Penn State, the freshman big man did that and more, finishing the game with ten points on 5/6 shooting (all in the first half) and 11 rebounds, five of them offensive.
After McGary kept the team afloat in the first half, the rest of the team stepped up in the second. Trey Burke led all scorers with 21 points, pouring in 13 in the second half on 4/6 shooting. Stauskas contributed nine of his 15 points in the latter stanza, including a "Game ... Blouses"-style dunk and nifty and-one layup. Jon Horford tallied all 11 of his points in the final 20 minutes, going 4/4 from the field in that span.
Gradually, over the course of the second half, Michigan's lead grew—after PSU's Jermaine Marshall tied the game at 39 with 17:25 left, the Wolverines outscored the Nittany Lions 44-27. Some added defensive intensity certainly helped; after Michigan ceded 14/26 two-point shooting in the first half, Penn State hit 12/26 from inside the arc in the second half. That may be just a two-shot difference, but the makes were more difficult to come by, at least.
Michigan moves on to play Wisconsin in the second game of the day tomorrow (~2:30 EST), and this game brought up some concerns for the rest of the tournament. Interior baskets were far too easy to come by for PSU, especially Sasa Borovnjak, who scored 15 points on 7/10 FG despite no offensive rebounds. The Wolverines looked lost defending the pick and roll, and offensively they biffed more than their fair share of layups.
They finally beat Penn State handily, however, outdoing KenPom's prediction by a point. Blemishes or no, that's taking care of business, and the team's first double-digit win since February 24th was a welcome sight.
Mitch McGary may not play pretty, but his contributions were also a delight—both to the fans and his teammates, apparently.
Unverified Voracity Thanks John Wilkins
Say this for the man: he dances when you tell him to dance. (AnnArbor.com)
Thanks for the service. One of the secret joys of being a Michigan fan has been the excellent service provided by John Wilkins and the alumni band when the students aren't available. Wilkins always brought an entertaining flair to the job he created 21 years ago. He has just retired, and he'll be tough to replace:
Deciding to retire from the pep band was not easy for Wilkins. "I will miss the Alumni Pep Band very much," he said. "The opportunity given to me to conduct a Michigan band at Michigan games, to play this great Michigan music, was a dream that I had since a little boy, a dream come true. Over the years I have developed incredible friendships with the players and will miss working with them on a regular basis. I'm glad that I have been invited to come back every year to conduct the entire Alumni Band at the football game in October on homecoming weekend."
Also I have that tie.
It's kind of like the Heisman I guess. Denard will be on the cover of EA's most recent slight rehash of NCAA Football 2003. Smile incoming:
He joins Desmond Howard and Charles Woodson. The game will pay tribute by having linebackers jump impossibly high to snag interceptions off everybody.
There were vote shenanigans that threatened to propel Texas A&M's Ryan Swope over the top, but EA promised they would eliminate fake votes, and by "eliminate fake votes" they meant "put Denard on the cover even if he finished last because this is EA, and EA gets dollars son even if it means turning a single player game into an always-online fiasco because we are mad at pirates."
He probably doesn't realize he's twisting the knife. After three straight weekends in Ann Arbor, Drake Harris finally gave the "it's not you… it's me" speech to Michigan State, decommiting. Except he said it was actually you, Michigan State:
"Since I'm just playing football now," Harris told reporters after his regional basketball game Monday in Grand Rapids, "I want to play at a bigger school, win a national championship."
Analysts are saying don't count your 6'4" elite wide receivers before they hatch, but it looks like the field is catching up to Michigan now. They'll have an opportunity:
"I don't have a frontrunner, I don't even have a top list right now. I'm supposed to go down to Florida on March 22, and then Ohio State sometime in April and Notre Dame sometime in April. I'm not sure what I'm going to do in the summer. I'll probably go out and visit some schools out West."
Harris says he'll enroll early and plans to commit in October. Long way to go.
[Ace, you can just C&P this section into Friday Recruitin'. Sorry.]
Well, yeah. Trey Burke is a first-team All American to the Sporting News and the Big Ten's player of the year, the first time in 24 years a Michigan player has brought that award in. The last guy was Glen Rice, which also yeah. Burke said "I feel honored" in response to being honored. Tautological point guard is tautological.
It really came down to Oladipo versus Burke, and while I love Burke with a Denard-crush intensity you really can make a case for Oladipo, who shot 66% from two(!), was the #5 guy in true shooting percentage, has a near-top-100 OREB rate—something Michigan felt the lash of on Sunday—and is a defensive superstar. It's that versus Burke's huge usage and incredible assist rate and turnover avoidance. It's Woodson versus Manning for the Heisman, except Indiana fans probably won't be bringing it up 20 years later.
Well… uh. Tim Hardaway also made first-team All Big Ten on one of the two ballots. This I am not so sure about. Aaron Craft got the nod on the media ballots—a weird situation where the better defensive player gets the hype and the coaches go for offense—and to me that's a lot more justifiable than going strictly by scoring average. That's how you pick Hardaway over, say, Gary Harris, who shot 74/52/42 on FT/2s/3s versus Hardaway's 69/50/38 on virtually identical usage. Hardaway did rebound a lot better, but what rebounds exactly was Gary Harris supposed to acquire as a the two-guard in a lineup with Payne, Nix, and Dawson?
I haven't watched Harris that closely but I doubt Hardaway brings much defensive value he doesn't. Eh. Awards are pointless, see…
The CCHA's continuing inability to do anything right. This is far less egregious than the various Hunwick-related snubs last year (Hunwick was a top-three Hobey finalist and not the CCHA goalie of the year), but Boo Nieves was honorable mention All Rookie this year despite having the second-most points of any freshman in league play. Alaska's Tyler Morley's 8-7-15 was better than Nieves's 8-14-22.
In other news, highlights of Michigan's 3-2 win over Northern on Friday contain one Michigan goal and two by NMU.
Where was this all year? Hockey resoundingly swept Northern Michigan over the weekend in two games I did not see because I assumed Michigan would not have a home series last week, because when has Michigan ever finished between 6th and 8th in the CCHA? LOL that idea.
In any case, Michigan's Saturday demolition of Northern was so comprehensive it makes you a little mad. Michigan outshot Northern 23-6 in the first period and 16-3 in the second, whereupon it was 4-1 and all over but the shouting. If you can do that now…
Anyway, Saturday's game was a weird one with two penalty shots:
Copp converted the second once the goalie went for a poke and missed it, leaving his five-hole exposed. He also scored a grinder earlier.
Center Ice has recaps of Friday and Saturday. They've recovered from that January funk and go to Western this weekend. CI:
A few guys are really standing out on a weekly basis, Copp, Racine, Nieves, Merrill, Guptill, they just are playing on a level that no one else is coming close too. I vividly remember our series against Western earlier in the year because every stoppage of play a Bronco went to a Wolverine, chirped at him and gave him a shove. No one did anything about it. Today I thoroughly enjoyed seeing any Wildcat who went near Racine get a push and shove, most of the the time it was Andrew Copp doing it. Little things that make a big difference.
The Guptill-Copp-Deblois line sees Guptill on a seven-game point streak; Nieves was sick last weekend but played through it.
Vincent Smith AMA. #2 popped up on Reddit yesterday to do an AMA promoting his Pahokee kickstarter, and the first question is… not about Clowney. It's about what kind of sub he ate. Well done, zparts. The second question mentions Clowney, but also finger guns. There was also the inevitable MGoBlog question that got the inevitable "I don't really read it" answer.
There is another. Derrick Walton senior highlights:
He won't be Trey, but if Hardaway and Robinson are back he won't have to be. If he can be a better version of Yogi Ferrell (18% usage, 26 Arate, 43%/32%) Michigan shouldn't have too much of a dropoff on offense what with everyone else back.
Etc.: Denard pro day interview. Who wants to dwell on the Indiana game? Special teams… not bad? Jordan Morgan : Space Jam :: Brian : Big Lebowski. Hockey's had a lot of breakaways of late.
Hoops Picture Pages: Defensive Rebounding Woes
The main reason Michigan lost a heartbreaker to Indiana on Sunday—yes, even more than their late-game free throw misses—was their inability to keep the Hoosiers off the offensive glass. Indiana rebounded 24 of their 40 missed shots; once second in the country in defensive rebounding, the Wolverines are now eighth in their own conference.
What's odd about this at first glance is that Michigan boasts a trio of centers who are all proficient rebounders. Jordan Morgan (#9) and Mitch McGary (#5) both rank among the top Big Ten players in defensive rebounding percentage, and Jon Horford would rank just ahead of Morgan if he played enough minutes to qualify.
After looking at the film, it's apparent that Michigan's bigs lack the support they need to defend the boards; the team's overall inexperience and poor perimeter defense are most apparent in this area. One play in particular from the Indiana game bears this out:
Let's look at this frame-by-frame, starting with the defensive lapse that begins the sequence—Tim Hardaway Jr. falling asleep in the corner and allowing Victor Oladipo to beat him on a backdoor cut:
Zeller has no problem getting the ball to Oladipo in great position for a shot. With Zeller and Jeremy Hollowell (#33, on the other side of the FT line from Zeller) at the top of the key—drawing Jordan Morgan and Glenn Robinson III way from the basket—Hardaway must fend for himself:
Here's where Michigan's rebounding issues begin in earnest. This is the point where Oladipo releases his shot. Note that Zeller, Morgan's man, has stayed on the perimeter, while Hollowell is crashing the paint behind Robinson. Hardaway is accounting for Oladipo and Robinson should be responsible for Hollowell; both are in decent position right here, while Nik Stauskas has been beaten to a good rebounding spot by Will Sheehy:
At the moment before Oladipo secures his own rebound, however, it's clear that Michigan's perimeter players haven't done their job. Hardaway first goes for the block and then reaches for the ball instead of putting a body on Oladipo, who will easily step by him and get the board. Robinson has watched the ball the entire time and allowed Hollowell a free pass to the basket. Stauskas is lucky not to give up a putback after letting Sheehy get right under the basket. Morgan is in solid position but the ball doesn't bounce his way. This is not good:
Oladipo kicks the ball out to Jordan Hulls, who gets a wide-open look from three after Trey Burke drifted away from the play. At the moment Hulls releases his shot, most of Michigan's players have at least partially recovered—Burke is attempting to close out, Morgan is on Zeller, and Hardaway and Stauskas have found their men. Robinson, however, is still watching the ball, unaware that Hollowell is on the complete opposite side of the lane:
As the shot comes off the rim, you can see three Wolverines—including Robinson—trying to box out two Hoosiers on the left side of the lane, while Morgan is left with the unenviable task of being one guy having to guard two guys:
This, predictably, does not go well. Zeller taps the rebound to Hollowell, who's able to gather the ball and go up for a layup despite Morgan's best efforts to be two Jordan Morgans.
To sum up, on this play we've got:
- Hardaway falling asleep on a backdoor cut
- Stauskas getting beat along the baseline
- Hardaway not boxing out Oladipo
- Robinson not boxing out Hollowell
- Robinson not boxing out Hollowell again, nor even being in the same general area
Watch Robinson throughout the play, here in handy gif form:
He never leaves an area covering about 15 square feet until it's far too late. You know how coaches say the key to a freshman succeeding is having the game slow down for him? On defense, at least, the game is going about 200 mph for Robinson, who's trying to defend with his eyes instead of his feet—while he's watching the ball, he's losing his man.
One play doesn't make a trend, of course, but there were several other instances of Michigan's non-centers being the culprit for an offensive rebound.
[For more rebounding pain and suffering, hit THE JUMP.]
"When you are winning a war almost everything that happens can be claimed to be right and wise."
~ Winston Churchill
(h/t @willbrinson, @detnewsRodBeard)
Trey Burke works the ball up the court, and crosses mid-court with just under nine seconds left. Jordan Morgan sets a high screen on Oladipo, and in an instant the much ballyhooed pre-game narrative is wiped out of the picture. This will no longer be a symbolic battle for the Big Ten Player of the Year. Indiana's best defender is a bystander. Instead it is Cody Zeller on Burke 30 feet from the basket.
History may be written by the winners, but in sports the winners rarely read the history they write. For the victor, the simple fact of the victory can obscure whatever came before. The foibles and missteps were merely a part of the rich tapestry that was their inevitable triumph. It is the character-building fire that forges their mettle. It is for the loser, rather, to lament the components of their fate. Almost exactly a week before Jordan Morgan set his screen, Keith Appling was dribbling the ball up that same court, in a tie game, with the shot clock off, when Trey Burke stole the ball and turned the tables on all the percentages. And when a second Burke steal sealed the game, no one cared that Michigan had frittered away a ten point lead in the last four minutes, or that they had missed the front end of a one-and-one to give Michigan State one last chance. It was Sparty, rather, who spoke with the bitter tinge of "what if" of their blown opportunity to win on what should have been a final possession.
Burke gains the corner on Zeller, but only by a bit. Yogi Ferrell starts to sag off of Stauskas, but thinks better of it. Ferrell knows full well that Burke is taking this one to the rack, but Stauskas is not to be left. Christian Watford is under no such restriction on the far side against Glenn Robinson III, and he helps down. Burke isn't going to leave this one in the hands of a jump shot from a freshman, no matter how talented that freshman may be. Zeller extends an impossibly long arm over Burke, who responds in kind with a fully extended flip of the ball. Jordan Morgan has reached the free throw line.
If you are anything like me, dear Michigan fan, then there is a part of you that is relieved that it got this far. The recent history of Michigan basketball is one of repeated crashes to reality. A first NCAA berth in a decade is followed by a 15-17 season. A first Big Ten title in centuries and a four-seed leads to an early exit against Ohio (YTO). So when Michigan came out of the gates this year as an unstoppable hell-beast, there remained a little voice in your head that urged caution. Like the slave used by Julius Caesar to ride on his chariot to remind him of his mortality, the little voice kept whispering in your ear, "they are not Gods. They are merely human." When Ben Brust hit a half-court heave and Michigan was run out of the Breslin Center and utterly collapsed in Happy Valley, those whispers became screams that could not be ignored. And when Michigan went down 10-3 early, there was a part of you that said, "please not this again."
[After the jump, not this again]

Beautiful Nightmares
Musings on our creepy friend, the spider.
Aware only of hunger and the elaborate patterns it somehow knows, a spider creates its web above my head.
I considered killing it, but the light caught it in a way that was—should I say—beautiful?
I'm unsure what kind it is but its body is light brown and its legs are a distinctive length. It will drop on a tiny strand of gossamer all the way down to the table, stroking it with its front legs as if to measure the geometries before shimmying back up to the ceiling again.
I wonder if it knows I'm watching. Probably not. Our worlds are both connected and separated, and neither of us truly knows the other.
Twice it almost landed on me, but I moved out of the way and it went back to work.
It feels the walls, crawling across them for a bit before returning to the corner where the first foundations of its web are being made. It twirls like a dancer in front of the computer screen, and if I squint I can see its spinneret working diligently. Between each jaunt it rests for a while in that perfect stillness only an invertebrate can have. It is unnerving how insects and spiders can remain in one place for hours or days without moving, almost as if they're dead. But there's only an illusion of dormancy, and they're conducting business often when you're not looking; a secret world.
They're so alien compared to us, and gross, but I can't help but be awed by their patience and their graceful movement that seems mindless and infinitely clever at the same time.
I like the role spiders play in human culture. They've stood in as Tricksters, antagonists, sometimes even guardians. The process of building a web equates with lies, and its ability to deliver poison is symbolic of so many things, not unlike that of the Biblical fever snake.
Yet for its ingenuity, predatory or otherwise, the spider has a special place in our collective psyche, inhabiting our most primal dreamscapes along with tight spaces and fanged forest-dwellers and inpenetrable black pits.
I've used the motif myself, modeling some of my Void Monsters after spiders. Like an abomination dubbed the Siren, an energy vampire who lures in prey with a telepathic lullaby before encasing them in a slimy cocoon and sipping on their life force until there's no more to take. By the time its done victims are still alive, but are often turned into catatonic empty shells. Sirens keep them around, almost as toys or trophies. The laws of the Void are not what we would consider natural or right. It is, after all, a warped mirror that reflects what we both despise and adore.
The idea came to me that what Sirens were at heart—amorphous manifestations who are only able to come here by draining a steady supply of thought and energy from humans—noticed spiders and mimicked their forms to suit their twisted fancy.
The main thing we get from spiders is a curious mix of revulsion and fascination. A being that beckons, hides in the dark, thinks of nothing but its own perpetuation, yet weaves the most elegant, intricate craft.
That is the stuff of beautiful nightmares.

Pepto-bismol (bismuth subsalicylate)
Pepto-bismol chewable tablets and suspension both contain the active ingredient bismuth subsalicylate.
What is it used for?
- Nausea.
- Indigestion.
- Heartburn.
- Upset stomach characterised by stomach pain and burning, nausea and excess gas (dyspepsia).
- Diarrhoea.
How does it work?
Pepto-bismol chewable tablets and suspension both contain the active ingredient bismuth subsalicylate.
It is not fully understood how this medicine works. However, bismuth subsalicylate has several actions in the gut. It appears to coat irritated tissues in the stomach and intestine, reducing inflammation and reducing irritation. It may also reduce secretions in the digestive tract. It kills bacteria, including E coli, a common cause of diarrhoea. It also has weak antacid properties.
It can be used to relieve the symptoms of an upset stomach, indigestion and nausea, and to control common diarrhoea.
How do I take it?
- Pepto-bismol liquid and chewable tablets can be taken with or without food.
- If you are using the suspension, shake the bottle before taking a dose.
- Adults aged 16 years and over should take 30ml Pepto-bismol liquid OR two Pepto-bismol tablets when required. This dose can be repeated after 30 to 60 minutes if needed. Do not take more than eight doses in 24 hours.
- You must not exceed the maximum dose. If your symptoms do not improve after two days of using this product, you should seek medical advice.
- Children under 16 years of age should not take aspirin or products containing salicylates, including Pepto-bismol, unless on the advice of a doctor. This is because aspirin use in children with viral infections has been associated with a rare condition called Reye's syndrome. This condition affects the brain and liver and though extremely rare, can be fatal. Bismuth subsalicylate is related to aspirin.
- Don't take this medicine and consult a doctor instead if you have diarrhoea that started either during or after taking a course of antibiotics, the diarrhoea contains yellow or greenish mucus or blood, or if you also have a fever.
- This medicine may discolour your tongue and stools black. This is normal, temporary and harmless.
Use with caution in
- People taking anticoagulant medicines such as warfarin.
- People taking medicines for diabetes or gout.
Not to be used in
- Children under 16 years old.
- People who are allergic to aspirin or salicylates.
This medicine should not be used if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. Please inform your doctor or pharmacist if you have previously experienced such an allergy.
If you feel you have experienced an allergic reaction, stop using this medicine and inform your doctor or pharmacist immediately.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Certain medicines should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding. However, other medicines may be safely used in pregnancy or breastfeeding providing the benefits to the mother outweigh the risks to the unborn baby. Always inform your doctor if you are pregnant or planning a pregnancy, before using any medicine.
- The safety of this medicine for use during pregnancy has not been established. It should be used with caution by pregnant women and only if considered essential by your doctor. If you are pregnant you should seek medical advice from your doctor before taking this medicine.
- The safety of this medicine for use during breastfeeding has not been established. It should not be used by women who are breastfeeding due to the potential risk of Reye's syndrome in a nursing infant. Seek further medical advice from your doctor.
Side effects
Medicines and their possible side effects can affect individual people in different ways. The following are some of the side effects that are known to be associated with this medicine. Just because a side effect is stated here, it does not mean that all people using this medicine will experience that or any side effect.
- Blackening of your stools (faeces) or darkening of your tongue. This is normal and nothing to worry about and will go away when you stop treatment.
The side effects listed above may not include all of the side effects reported by the medicine's manufacturer.
For more information about any other possible risks associated with this medicine, please read the information provided with the medicine or consult your doctor or pharmacist.
How can this medicine affect other medicines?
If you are taking any other medicines, including those bought without a prescription and herbal medicines, it is important to check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this medicine as well. Similarly, check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking any new medicines in combination with this one, to make sure that the combination is safe.
You should not take this medicine in combination with aspirin or any other salicylate medicines.
This medicine may reduce the absorption of tetracycline-type antibiotics from the gut, which could make them less effective. If you have been prescribed a tetracycline-type antibiotic with this medicine, you should try to separate each dose of the two medicines by at least two hours to minimise this problem.
Other medicines containing the same active ingredient
There are currently no other medicines available in the UK that contain bismuth subsalicylate as the active ingredient.

5 - Sorry, JayMature
Sat in the living room, Allura had her earphones in, blasting rap music into her skull. She never used to like rap music, but living in a house full of guys was bound to change her.
Danny was sat across the room from her, scribbling away in a notebook with his pencil. He did that a lot. He was one of the nicest guys Allura had ever met – even though he was an assassin. Nevertheless, he was sweet, kind and funny; all the qualities Allura didn't look for in boys. She preferred the more vicious, aggressive guys that sent a shiver of excitement down her spine.
Danny looked up, catching her gaze. He looked down again quickly. Another thing Allura didn't like in men – shyness. She pulled her headphones out and turned her iPod off. She put it on the table next to her.
"What are you doing?" she asked him.
"Stuff," he mumbled.
"What kind of stuff?"
"Drawing," he said, a bit louder, but not by much.
"What you drawing?" she asked.
"You," he admitted quietly. It wasn't much more than a whisper.
She smiled and stood up; swinging her legs off the arm of the chair she was slouched on. She walked across the carpet in her socks to look over his shoulder at the notebook in his hands.
Allura grinned. It was a simple drawing with no colour. It was shaded, giving it a 3D effect. She bent down to kiss his cheek.
"It's really good," she commented.
She felt someone pulled down her black, pencil skirt a bit. She stood up straight and turned around to see who it was. Spike grinned at her as he lazily dropped onto the three-seater. She raised an eyebrow at him.
"Your skirt was a bit high at the back," he explained. "Not that I'm complaining."
Allura raised both eyebrows at him as she sat back down in the armchair. She ran her fingers through her silvery hair.
"So, how did it go with Mister Richard Wilson?" Spike asked.
Danny took this as a chance to leave the room; he didn't like Allura's methods, no matter how Goddamn effective they were.
"In what way?" Allura replied teasingly.
"So I take it you resorted to your... usual methods then."
"Is there something wrong with the way I get my job done?"
"No," Spike smiled, "I'm just jealous."
"Oh, really?" Allura laughed.
"Mm-hm," he said by way of agreement. His brown eyes looked her up and down, taking in all her assets.
"My face is here, Spike," she said. She didn't actually mind his eyes wandering. In fact, she liked it – loved it even; it was how she did her job.
"I know," he said, smiling cheekily at her.
She watched him watching her. "All you have to do is ask, you know," she said, knowing exactly what he was thinking.
He got up off the couch and took her hand, gently pulling up her slight frame. He turned around, taking her with him, and sat down. He pulled her onto his lap. Sat with her legs bent either side of him, Allura moved her face closer to his, letting him make the first move.
He took her face in his hands and kissed her forcefully. That was the type of kiss Allura loved, the dominating, authoritative ones, not the soppy, pathetic ones. In her heart she was slightly masochistic. Perhaps a bit more than 'slightly'.
As Spike got into the kiss, it deepened, becoming much more powerful and passionate. They were both breathing heavily through their noses. He put his hand on her waist but it wasn't long before his hands were roaming her body.
Somebody cleared their throat from the doorway. Allura and Spike pulled away from each other, though neither moved very much.
"I'd quite like to keep my dinner in my stomach, Allura," said Jay disapprovingly, before heading upstairs.
Allura bit her lip, looking at Spike. She wanted to carry on with him. But she was tired. It was about 4 in the morning and she hadn't slept much. She got up, picked up her iPod and followed Jay upstairs to bed.

Run away and seek refuge in Farmer John's house.
And if you had more to base your thoughts on than chicken feed and feathers, you might have noticed the shiny zipper glinting in the sunlight. But alas, fear has clouded your chicken-sense and the shiny metal evaded your short gaze.
"Oh my, oh my, oh my!" you cluck. "I must call Farmer John."
You turn around and run as fast as your little chicken feet can carry you and burst into the kitchen in a cloud of feathers and dust.
"Farmer John! Farmer John! Where are you?", your terrified voice squawks.
The farmer's wife Mary-Bertha hears your calls and rushes into the kitchen. "My dear chicken, what are you doing so far away from your coop?" she says in an annoyed voice. You see, Mary-Bertha is from the city. She wears those poufy clothes that look like curtains and waves at a small mirror all the time. She is not one of the farm, as is our Farmer John.
"Cluck, cluck squawk! Cluck cluck cluck!" you chant over and over- but it's no use. She cannot understand you!
By now, the wife has gotten ever more irritated. "You little chicken you! Coming inside my kitchen and ruining the floor! Get out!"
You cluck and squawk harder than you have ever before, desperately trying to get her to understand your plight, but that woman is beyond reason. Stupid human, you seethe, the little feathers on the top of your head turning brown with the flames of your rage. What does Farmer John even see in her?
"Get out!" her voice shrieks again and she appears in your line of sight brandishing a broom. She raises her arms high and brings the broom down hard, but before it makes contact another voice rings out.
"Zzingr cluck…zzz cluck"
"W-what?" stutters Mary-Bertha and turns to the light at the door before grasping her head, as if it were pounding.
"Zzingr cluck" the voice hisses again and the figure moves closer. You hear the metallic claws tearing holes in the ground when it walks.
"Zzingr cluck" it snaps out forcefully and pushes the lady on the ground with its hideous magnificence.
For now, the light has gone and you can see; finally see what your saviour, the destroyer of chicken-kind looks like without his man-chicken disguise.
You are impressed and awe-struck; partly because it knocked her down and partly, because you know it and have dreamt of it. It is…

A Graphic Novel by Daniel Clowes
Dan Clowes follows his amazing graphic novel, Ghost World, with an equally stunning collection of nine short comics stories. His characters drift through the world in detached desperation, and they seem all the more real for it. Take the caricature artist, Mal Rosen, of the first story. His encounter with a young girl at an art festival plays out like a series of small self-discoveries, leaving him hollow and empty like a fresh exhalation. In this same sad, insightful way, all of these tales are coming-of-age stories--there's the boy who is too old for trick-or-treating ("Immortal, Invisible"), the 18-year-old virgin trying to create a new tough-guy persona ("Blue Italian Shit"), and the image-obsessed Mona Beadle from "Green Eyeliner," which originally appeared in Esquire. --Jim Pascoe

text: NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 9, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Treaty Energy Corporation (OTCQB: TECO), a growth-oriented energy company in the oil and gas industry, today announced the release of the following letter to shareholders of the Company. Letter to Shareholders: We would like to thank all of our shareholders for their continued support. Through the hard work and dedicated diligence of exceptional employees, Treaty Energy has realized considerable progress within our drilling programs in 2011. Having obtained a level of success both here in the United States and in Belize has led all of us here at Treaty to welcome 2012 with open arms and a renewed spirit that anything is possible through the hard work of a competent management team coupled with a group of dedicated employees. Although much has been accomplished, much still remains to be completed. We have total confidence that Treaty's management and personnel are well prepared for the challenges ahead. In keeping with the spirit of transparency, we would like to provide a few updates to shareholders on our Texas and Belize operations. Texas Operations Treaty has continued to invest in our Texas leases in order to increase production through an aggressive work over program spearheaded by Stephen L. York, our President and COO. We are working on upgrading all leases in Texas with new technologies in order to reduce operating cost and increase efficiency of the existing wells. We should have steady consistent production by the end of the year on the currently producing wells. Treaty recently closed on the purchase and amended agreement with Search Energy to allow for us to proceed with drilling operation on the Wooldridge leases. In addition, we have closed on a $700,000 commitment to fund a drilling program of 12 shallow wells on the Wooldridge Leases. Our technical team is in the process of reworking, through a process of Gel Fracking, 5 wells on the Wooldridge leases in addition to drilling the 12 new wells. As of December 8, 2011 our working leases in Texas are producing 40-50 bpd, and upon completion of the 12 new wells we expect Texas production to exceed 250 bpd. Our investment banking team, headed by Bruce Gwyn and Lee Schlesinger, is currently working on a $1,450,000 9-Well funding that if successful should put us at our goal of 1000 BOPD by Mid-Year 2012. Belize Operations Princess Concession Treaty is working closely with all departments of the Belize government to assure our compliance with their regulations. Regulations in Belize for drilling are significantly different than here in the States and we must proceed cautiously. Regulations for Safety, Reporting, and Technical requirements are not necessarily outlined in detail as we move into the exploration phase. We continue to move forward, adapting immediately to situations as they are brought to our attention. We continue to make steady progress in this phase of the operation. Treaty Energy, through Princess Petroleum, was notified in September that the Geology and Petroleum Department would commence holding " Quarterly Technical Meetings" with all Production Sharing Agreement (PSA) holders. The objective of these quarterly meetings will be to apprise the department of the company's ongoing exploratory activities in their respective contract area. The purpose of the meetings will be to foster a better working relationship with the Government and PSA holders and allow for the companies to inform and update the government on all petroleum based activities. Treaty's quarterly meeting was scheduled for Wednesday, November 30, 2011. We were at a particular stage of the drilling that we were able to halt operations temporarily without any technical issues. It was decided that while the meeting took place the drilling team would return to Texas for a short time, as our drilling superintendent and other key staff were required to attend the meetings. The drilling team will return to Belize, from our Texas project, to resume the drilling program next week. Paradise Energy, Ltd Treaty has not been involved in any litigation involving the acquisition of Paradise Energy Ltd or the Paradise Concession and looks forward to much success with the acquisition. We will provide updates on this acquisition in the near future.
