Spring Practice Presser 3-24-17: Don Brown
Newsy Bits:
- Brown thinks Gary and Hurst are the best Anchor-3T combo in the nation
- Mike Wroblewski was talked up as a guy who knows the scheme so well that he makes calls for not only his but other position groups; Brown has to tell him to let other guys make their calls, a first in his career
- Current combatants at Peppers's vacated VIPER spot: Khaleke Hudson, Jordan Glasgow, Josh Metellus
- Hill and Long have first dibs on the corner spots, but the plan is to let everyone compete and see what happens
- On the defense's youth: "I'd rather be talented and young than not, than the alternative; have a bunch of veterans and you're going, oh my god, what am I gonna do?"
- Devin Bush is flipping between Mike and Will. Brown feels like he's got three guys for two positions between McCray, Wroblewski, and Bush
"How are you guys?"
Good, how are you?
"Glad to be coaching ball, that's all I know. Good first day. Guys worked hard, really did. The youth on our team…you know, you can look at it and say 'Oh, we got a long way to go,' which we do, but it's just such an energizing feeling when you go out there and you're actually walking off the field going 'Damn, we functioned pretty well today.' So, you know, excited about it.
"It's a good group, but kind of an interesting blend. So there's enough guys that have been around that will demand execution and demand effort and energy that I feel like we'll be in great shape."
Some of the guys at Pro Day today, Taco and Chris [Wormley], were saying that they think this defensive line group is maybe more athletic than the group that's departed. Is that fair?
"I think with Rashan and Mo Hurst…I have to tilt my head back and think for a minute. [He really is tilting his head back.] I don't know, I'm not sure there's a better tandem Anchor-tackle in the country. I'm very confident with Bryan [Mone]—here's the key: we played eight guys last year. Four are gone, but we've got a first team with Bryan Mone—and Chase Winovich is such a better player.
"I think back—I did a bad thing yesterday. I went back and watched practice #3 of spring last year. Hooooly moly. What was that? We're just so different, and those first four guys are really, they're setting the tone. We've got some youth there that I'm very excited about. I thought Donovan Jeter, his raw ability today, thought he showed some really good signs, which is good.
"The Sam-Mike-Will thing: getting Mike McCray back. (W)robo, Mike Wroblewski, there's another guy where I'm watching him in practice last year [and] just can't even believe it's the same guy. You talk about a self-made football player, but a guy who knows it all. Here's—I've never had to do this before. He's telling the secondary, making their on-rights and lefts call, he's making the tight call, he's making the detach call for the outside linebacker and it's finally like, 'Hey Robo, you need to shut up and let those guys make those calls themselves.' 'Oh yeah, Coach, yeah, yeah, yeah.' That's how well he knows the scheme. So him and Devin Bush and Mike McCray. Furbush was good.
"We got Uche goin' at Sam and Khaleke Hudson was our VIPER today. Arrows up; really excited about him. Glasgow was a VIPER today and that young secondary, Lavert Hill, David Long, Josh Metellus, Tyree—Tyree Kinnel has just quietly done a nice job.
"So, we'll see. There's a lot of youth there. St. Juste, he'll be an interesting guy as we move forward. Ambry Thomas, again, another interesting guy. J'Marick Woods and Jaylen Kelly-Powell, all those guys are good players. The nice thing is I don't think there's a lot of guys that are misplaced. They're in the right place in terms of their level of competition."
[After THE JUMP: on the concept of the VIPER and an excellent, in-depth response to criticisms of Peppers' game]
Exit Kingston Davis
I guess he really really didn't want to play fullback [Eric Upchurch]
Per Sam Webb, Kingston Davis is set to transfer.
Father of #Michigan RB Kingston Davis told me his son informed U-M today of plan to transfer. Reasons: crowded depth chart & talk move to FB pic.twitter.com/vXPcZ6ro7T
— Sam Webb (@SamWebb77) March 24, 2017
Davis got a few carries early last year before an apparent redshirt. Meanwhile the quick emergence of Chris Evans and Kareem Walker navigating some rocky early waters makes the depth chart look tough indeed for anyone in the same class, as Davis was.
With Davis's transfer, the expected departure of Shelton Johnson would bring Michigan down to 85 before spring practice. That means no fifth years are potential cuts even if everyone else sticks it out.
You Say It Is A Toenail; I Say It Is In Your Heart Nonetheless
3/23/2017 – Michigan 68, Oregon 69 – 26-12, season over
[Joseph Dressler]
There are few things more haunting in sports than coming up on the short end of a bonafide one-point basketball game. There are so many points and so many opportunities to get two more or prevent two more that it is impossible not to inventory all the slight tweaks in the universe that could have gotten you one step closer to the promised land, or at least destruction at the hands of Kansas.
The wide open DJ Wilson layup and two Duncan Robinson threes that were halfway down stand out in this regard. So too does the late Oregon free throw miss that Wilson couldn't box out on. And then there is the blizzard of threes that did not go halfway down, for reasons.
Oregon's approach seemed to be "leave Michigan blitheringly wide open from three and see what happens." Michigan took more threes than twos, and if any of them seemed unreasonable it was only in aggregate. There will be some complaints about Michigan launching early in the shot clock, but the vast majority of Michigan's 31 attempts from behind the arc were preceded by my inner monologue—and sometimes the external one, too—yelling "shoot that." A couple of ugly ones should have been rhythm catch and shoot opportunities that Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman and Mo Wagner, collectively 0-8 in this game, passed up on to dribble themselves into worse shots.
This is certainly a way to play against a John Beilein team. Usually it's a way to get your face melted off. The shattered corpse of Oklahoma State basketball would like a word at this point. That word is "aaaargh."
And yet.
Michigan hit a respectable 11 of 31—36 percent. This was not enough. It was not enough even though they won the style contest on defense. Oregon only got up 10 transition shots, which they did poorly on. A third of their shots were the two point jumpers Michigan strives to force and Oregon is very bad at. They hit 25%.
If you'd told me all the peripheral numbers from this game beforehand I'd have taken it in a hot second. I would not have believed you if you'd told me that despite those numbers Michigan's offense would look like a hamster searching for a wheel for big chunks of the game.
Dana Altman's combination of the half-ass press a bunch of teams run now that the shot clock is down to 30 and 40% matchup zone got Michigan off balance. A plan to punish the incessant switching by replicating the second half against Louisville ended up with some poor Wagner shots and turnovers; Wagner spent the last ten minutes on the bench in favor of Duncan Robinson, who seemingly couldn't guard anyone on the floor.
The game was just... off. With virtually every ticket in the sweaty palms of Kansas fans the arena was near-empty at tipoff and dead throughout. That gave a tense, taught game an unfortunate NBA D-League or NCAA hockey regional vibe, and while I don't think that caused the ugly game it certainly reinforced it. It was weirdly muted for one of the most important games of the college basketball season.
It was ugly to the point where a final score close to 70 for both teams is unexpected. Michigan perpetually felt eight points behind and suddenly they were in the lead with two minutes left, sort of like the Oklahoma State and Louisville games. And then.
In the aftermath you're left grasping at opportunities spurned, at whatever air eddies pushed this ball a micron away from a good-enough trajectory, at this breakdown or that breakdown that would go almost entirely unremarked upon if not for the fact that Oregon had N and Michigan had N –1.
An inch; a point; it's been a year of almosts for Michigan athletics.
Rather satisfying all the same. Losing a one-point Sweet Sixteen game is no shame. It's a hard thing to do, winning basketball games against good teams. Michigan picked up a banner, got a measure of Louisville revenge, and was amongst the best teams in the country for a full half season. Over the full span they finished 20th on Kenpom.
This wasn't a return to the Burke/Stauskas years but it was a solid top 25 season.
The Walton; the Irvin. I pulled the "Zak Irvin is happening" tag out of mothballs for this game because he was happening, man. His late surge as he re-found his excellent-third-banana level was such that everybody had to stop complaining about him. This is a monumental internet accomplishment. He held Michigan in this game, hit tough late-clock shots, and was clearly on another level from Duncan Robinson as he checked Oregon's perimeter guys.
Building on that? Obviously much hinges on the return of Wilson and Wagner. I'd guess with their tough final games and the super deep draft—DX has Caleb Swanigan 30th!—both will return for another year of that sweet Beilein development. Both guys are potential lottery picks if they continue to improve at a decent clip. Right now there are sufficient questions that they'd be borderline first rounders.
If Michigan does not have any unexpected departures you're looking at something like:
- Xavier Simpson/Eli Brooks
- MAAR/Jordan Poole
- Charles Matthews/Duncan Robinson
- DJ Wilson/Isaiah Livers
- Mo Wagner/Jon Teske/Austin Davis
Michigan does have an open scholarship they could use on either Mo Bamba—uh not likely—or one of the late risers they've done so well with; there are also a number of intriguing transfer options. Since Brooks and Poole may not be impact freshmen, an immediately eligible backcourt scorer would be real nice. You've probably heard about faintly ludicrous Chippewa Marcus Keene and his 37% usage. Keene shot 82/51/37 on incredible volume and had an excellent assist rate on a bad MAC team that was nonetheless 56th in offensive efficiency.
There's also New Mexico guard Elijah Brown, another 30%+ usage player with decent efficiency. His three point shooting fell off this year but he was near 40% a year ago (on 226 attempts); he gets to the line and his excellent FT shooting implies that his rough two point percentages are more about his situation than his talent.
Or Michigan could go the Matthews route again and attempt to acquire the services of blue-blood transfer Chase Jeter, who's leaving Duke after two injury-plagued years. Jeter is a 6'10" post and would have to sit out, so he's not an ideal fit for the roster. I'd still poke around there because the rate of big washout is so high. You can't count on both Teske and Davis being around in two years. See: all of college basketball.
Tourney coverage complaint. There are way too many fouls that don't get replays to check on them. DJ Wilson's second was a potentially dubious call on which a second look would have been very helpful; instead nothing.
Also in complaints: I have no idea how anyone can listen to Reggie Miller and think "I should pay this person to do this thing."

44 minutes. Yes, a lot of it is dated now.
[Marc-Gregor Campredon]
Still Ira in for Sam, who's in a place with better meat right now.
Things discussed:
- First weekend recap: Michigan beat Louisville two points at a time. Weekend vs. very tough teams showed what a Beilein offense can be when all five guys are firing.
- Beilein now versus when he got here: totally different offense, totally different defense. Moe is the first 5 who can shoot that B's had since Pittsnoggle and that one guy the year after Pittsnoggle.
- The rest of the tourney: Big Ten has acquitted itself well, the refs not so much.
- Nerd-out on the seeding: advocating better metrics but don't make it all about advanced stats either. Right now they're just using RPI, which is bad.
- Oregon preview: Almost as up-tempo as Oklahoma State—don't let them take a three! Vegas takes into account the loss of Boucher and the fact that Michigan is playing like a 2-seed.
- Kansas in case: Bill Self-destruction in March is a thing, but Kansas has some ATHs. Ira makes a good argument that we'd rather face them than Purdue?
- Rundown of the rest: Who do you like for the Final Four?
- Spring Football! Brian points out which guys he wants to hear nice things about.

Oregon 69, Michigan 68
The final shots. [Joseph Dressler]
In the movie script, that shot goes in.
Michigan hadn't played their best game—far from it—but Derrick Walton nevertheless had a clean look to send the Wolverines to the Elite Eight and keep this magical run going. With time about to expire, Walton cleared out space, rose, and fired. His shot caught iron. Walton clutched his head, likely feeling the same combination of surprise and dismay as the rest of us.
"I had a good look at the basket and it just didn't drop for me," Walton said.
This is not a movie script.
In a disjointed game, Michigan's seniors fought valiantly to the finish. Walton shook off a hard fall on his elbow in the first half to finish with a game-high 20 points on 6-for-10 shooting, five rebounds, and eight assists. Zak Irvin poured in 19, going 8-of-14 from the field, pulled down eight rebounds, and played lockdown defense on Oregon star Dillon Brooks, who needed 13 shots to score 12 points. In the last five minutes, the two combined for three go-ahead shots, and Walton added a nasty fadeaway jumper to give the Wolverines a three-point lead with 2:02 left.
They could not get a fourth. Instead, Oregon's two best players on the night made the plays in winning time. Jordan Bell, a force in the paint all evening, put back a missed free throw to get the Ducks within one after Walton's jumper. After Walton couldn't get a tough layup to fall, Tyler Dorsey got a step on Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman and finished at the rim for what were ultimately the final points of the game.
Michigan would get two more shots to win. DJ Wilson's three-pointer with 46 seconds remaining was well off the mark. After Dylan Ennis missed another free throw with 15 seconds to play, Oregon surprisingly chose to give only one of their three remaining fouls to give, allowing Walton to get that final look. It fell short.
"I've seen him make that shot thousands of times, so I had confidence in him knocking it down," said Irvin. "It looked good from my angle. No one else on this team that we wanted taking that shot. He's been on a run and he's such a great player. I'm proud of him."
Jordan Bell made play after play in the paint. [Dressler]
From the start, this didn't feel like Michigan's night. The Wolverines went just 11-for-28 in the first half, and while they only trailed by two at the break, it could've easily been worse. Wilson sat for much of the half with foul trouble. Oregon's guards repeatedly blew by Michigan defenders. Dorsey sunk three of his four first-half three-point attempts. Walton grinded out 11 points and seven assists by halftime, keeping his team within striking distance. With Wilson set to get back on the court, the hope was Michigan could find their groove.
It never quite clicked. Moe Wagner barely played in the second half and finished the night with only seven points on 3-for-10 shooting. Abdur-Rahkman all but disappeared, tallying more turnovers (3) than points (2). Duncan Robinson's eight points weren't enough to offset his defensive shortcomings. While Wilson hit four three-pointers, he didn't get a bucket inside the arc as Bell dominated the paint; his missed second-half layup will stay with him for a while.
While tonight wasn't their night, this team can hold their heads high. Walton and Irvin battled to the bitter end, and this season will ultimately be remembered far more for the remarkable highs of the last month than tonight's low. When it mattered the most, this team galvanized around its leaders, and the most difficult part of tonight is knowing we won't get to see them all play together again.
"It's the tightest bunch I've been around in all my years of playing basketball," said Walton. "Just a very selfless group. I had the joy of being a part of it and being one of the leaders. Like I said, I wish we could have more games to play together because I think a couple minutes throughout the game we didn't show the type of team we were becoming and overall just thank them for allowing me to be part of such a great team."
"We're very close-knit, playing our best basketball and didn't want the season to end," said Irvin. "This team had a lot of great memories. We battled through adversity and just a team that I will always remember."
He's not alone.

Being willing to take a politically incorrect and/or unpopular opinion doesn't validate an opinion anymore than any others. I'm sick of that reasoning being thrown around. But thanks for those willing to be so strong and and stand up in the face of all that is PC and tell us what suicide really is.
The nonsense in this thread that is mostly the result of ignorance and lack of education about what really goes on in a suicide is kinda disturbing, and some of that hate probably even plays a role in a lot of people with suicidal thoughts not getting the help when they should have at an early point bc it's such a taboo thing to talk about, admit to having thoughts of and so forth.
There's no way to quantify or verify this, but I'm pretty confident that there's not one person in here that doesn't have a family member or friend that at some point in their life had some serious suicidal thoughts. The problem is few of us probably ever knew about them going through that bc so few people are ever able to open up about that when they are having problems.
Joey Votto does not care about RBI.
I think if they went that way, it would certainly change the way the game is played. We'd have to get used to NFL football that more resembled rugby in the way players are tackled and blocked.
Wear gaudy colors, or avoid display. Lay a million eggs or give birth to one. The fittest shall survive, yet the unfit may live. Be like your ancestors or be different. We must repeat!
The Press just won't let go of the concussion angle of this story but I don't see why they're ignoring some other equally possible causes for the suicides in the NFL.
How 'bout the possibility that players go from huge paychecks to nothing over night? Guys like Terrell Owens made over $70mill in the NFL but now he's broke. 78% of NFL players are broke 3 yrs after they retire so this is common
Another issue is the competition, adrenaline rush and adoration these players miss after they leave the football field?
I don't think it's much about concussions and the talk at ESPN of the NFL's morbid future is nuts.
You may be onto something, but you would think that NBA and MLB players would have that same problem. They all pretty much go from huge paychecks to very little income. Doesn't every league have players that are adored and then when they retire, they are pretty much forgotten?
Sent from my LG-VS700
Terrell Owens isn't broke, he wants to pay less child support and alimony.
Because the plain people are able to speak and understand, and even, in many cases, to read and write, it is assumed that they have ideas in their heads, and an appetite for more. This assumption is a folly.
--H.L. Mencken
Wow... my guess was low.
Amazingly, Plummer has decided not to kill himself yet."In the 1990s, I did a concussion seminar. They said a Grade 3 concussion meant you were knocked out, and a Grade 1 meant you were seeing stars after a hit, which made me burst out in laughter," Plummer told the San Jose Mercury News. "As a middle linebacker in the NFL, if you don't have five of these (Grade 1 effects) each game, you were inactive the next game
My great grandfather smoked 2 packs a day for over 60 years...Lived to 95 before dying of natural causes and never got lung cancer
Amazingly, smoking never killed him. Therefore, smoking must not be dangerous for your health.

Glad you enjoyed the article!
You certainly didn't waste money on your 64-Bit though, as you still get killer performance. If you compared benchmarks from your CPU, to 32-Bit CPU's of the same speed, you would see the performance differences.
Once Longhorn is released, hopefully we will get even more punch from our 64-Bit CPU's, since by that time there *should* be more 64-Bit software available.

Step 1: Soak them.
- If you have an hour: Place the beans in a large saucepan and add water to cover. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 1 hour.
- If you have all night (and don't want to lift a finger): Place the beans in a large saucepan and add enough water to cover. Let soak at room temperature for 8 to 10 hours.
Step 2: Cook them. Drain the soaked beans and return them to the pot. Cover with fresh water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until tender, 1½ to 3 hours. (Refer to the package directions for specific times. In general, the larger the bean, the longer the cooking time.) Note: A heaping half cup of dried beans is equivalent to a 15.5-ounce can of beans.

From humble beginnings as a small UK start-up, School Website has enjoyed tremendous success. Today, we work with and support the digital marketing efforts of more than 400 private schools worldwide and are recognised as an organisation that continues to redefine the benchmark in school website design. Our client list is undoubtedly the most prestigious of independent schools in the world, with Charterhouse, Oundle, Radley, Repton in the UK and Beau Soleil, Kings' Dubai and Brighton College International representing just a few of the most recognised global brands with whom we work.
Well you've only got yourselves to blame for that one, as well as an industry that we believe lacks credible competition. With a marketplace dominated by just two suppliers (following their acquisitions of other smaller school website design specialists) we found more and more US private schools were getting in touch to see if we would work with them. Having shown them what we do and how we do it, superlatives such as 'WOW' and 'game-changer' quickly followed. This left us with little doubt that expansion into the US market would not only represent good business sense for School Website, but offer the market a new benchmark in creativity, technology and support.
Learn more about us.
If there is one difference between the UK and US independent school market that we can see it is the emphasis put on integration. While in the UK market it is considered more of a given that one platform will be able to talk to another, or offer single-sign-on (SSO),
many conversations with prospective US clients center around integration – more specifically their frustration in the lack of it. In addition many schools have expressed their displeasure with the dominance of the two big suppliers in the market in having already integrated with many of those products, making it difficult to leave them. So you'll be happy to hear that integration is not an issue for our US clients.
Learn more about your website integrations.
Without revealing some of our key USP's, it's no secret that our unique focus on blending technology and innovation has given us the reputation as market leaders in education content management. Our Fluency CMS platform not only maintains an ease of use so intuitive that you already know how to use it, but also a collection of features, functionality and tools that elevates its users to the pinnacle of their digital marketing powers. Not just for the technology of today, but also tomorrow.
Learn more about the technology behind our websites.
When other providers say support, they mean a 'Help Desk'. We don't. We mean a relationship. A partnership. A commitment to do all we can to help you meet all of your marketing and communications goals.
Yes, of course we will answer your technical questions, but our dedicated client Marketing team are there to support and extend your existing team, our Account Managers to support you strategically, our Tech guys to provide solutions to your online problems and our Developers to make sure you enter data once, have single sign on (SSO) and all your website integrations work seamlessly.

Perfect location for relaxation and exploration!
This apartment was perfect for our first time in Dublin. While it is not in the center of the city, this was better for us. The home is right on a bus line to the city center and the buses are quite frequent. In 10 minutes, you are walking around Trinity College. It is a short walk to the DART so we could explore the whole Dublin coast (and we did!!!). And the village of Sandymount is lovely - great restaurants, cafes, shopping, etc. The apartment is quite large and has a great view of the Irish sea. One day, we were lucky enough to be there while there was a huge beach rugby tournament. In the apartment is an adequate kitchen, nice living room and separate bedroom. Quite a comfortable spot!
Iverna made everything so easy for us, with her instructions from the Airbus to Seaview, and also the buses into Dublin were so easy. The apartment was clean and spacious and very home from home, with everything thought of, including the hairdryer and iron, and so nice to have a welcome pack of tea, coffee and biscuits etc. on our arrival. The views are lovely, and so interesting because they changed all the time when the tide went in and out. Iverna told us about the walk to the lighthouse we could see from our apartment window and we did it one afternoon, and enjoyed it immensely, especially seeing all the wild life on the way, and meeting so many friendly people. The village round the corner was great with lots of restaurants to choose from, and a really good butcher shop. The week passed so quickly, there was not enough time to do everything we wanted, but we did visit the Wicklow mountain area on a tour bus, the scenery is beautiful. Dublin is an amazing city, with a really good atmosphere, and so much to do and see. We found the people so friendly, and Seaview was the ideal place to stay.
I have been lucky enough to stay in this apartment almost every time I return to Dublin. I have visited at least 3 times a year as my daughter is studying in Dublin.
I always arrive with a feeling of reaching 'home' after the long journey, & there is always a warm welcome from the owner. The apartment is beautifully kept & I will never tire of the views. I love to walk along the Strand in the morning & have a delicious breakfast in Brownes Cafe on Sandymount Green.
The Dart is a 10 minute walk away & with the bus stop just outside the door I do not need a car, though free parking is available all around.
I recommend this property to friends & relatives all the time, though I would quite simply be horribly disappointed if the owner could not let me stay because someone else had already booked. If only it were possible I would take my possessions & live there for years!
With the panoramic vistas of Dublin Bay and just a stone's throw from Dublin centre this apartment was ideally situated for our recent visit to Dublin. We were delighted with the accommodation and could have spent hours just looking out the windows. The property was in pristine condition and very comfortably furnished.
It is also just a few minutes walk from Sandymount Village which is very attractive and has quite a few restaurants worth visiting. We shall be back!
This apartment on Strand Road was exactly what I was hoping for and exactly what I needed. I was convalescing after a long illness and wanted to be next to the sea for the air and exercise and views, and I wanted to be in Dublin in order to visit my daughter who is studying there. As soon as I arrived I knew I'd chosen the right place.
It was very clean and warm ( it was January) and I felt safe and comfortable. I can honestly say I started to feel better after the first day, and by the time I left I was almost completely renewed.The view was wonderful with so much to watch - people excersising their dogs or themselves, the ferries from UK coming and going and sailing boats at the weekend.
The bus stop was right outside the house and regular buses took me into the city in about 15 minutes. A 5 minute walk took me to the local shops, cafes and pub. I didn't need to go any further if I wanted a restful day. I stayed for four weeks and felt completely at home. The owner, Iverna, made me feel very welcome and no question was too much problem. She even made an appointment for me with her own doctor just round the corner when I felt rather unwell at one point. The doctor was marvellous and immediately helped me feel better.
A fifteen minute walk took me to the DART railway station, where regular trains went to the North or South of Dublin. Howth was my favourite destination - a working fishing harbour of great attractiveness where you could buy fish almost as they came off the boats, or let someone else cook them at one of the restaurants beside the water. You can also climb to the cliff tops and look back at Dublin Bay and the city - a stunning view.
There is definitely no need for a car as public transport is plentiful and so handy.
The apartment is very spacious - even the bathroom has plenty of space. I am hoping to return as soon as I can, and I would recommend the apartment to anyone ( as long as they are not booked in when I want it!)
This small, dormer apartment has all the basics we needed for a 3 week stay. It is located on a main road with close bus service to Dublin city center, and a less than 15 minute walk to the DART light rail.
There was always something interesting to see on the beach when the tide was out. The little village of Sandymount had everything we needed. Iverna was a lovely hostess. We recommend the Seaview. Kit and Bill
Thank you for letting us rent your apartment. Everything was more than in order. Everything was to our satisfaction. Your apartment was lovely and your hospitality could not have been better. We appreciate that you visit us when we arrived too the flat. Everything went smoothly. We can not complain on anything.
Beside the above, your city Dublin and what we saw around it was tremendous. The irish peoples was so kind among us EVERYONE. You live in a great place.
Of course we would like to stay with you again. Stina och Bengt
My wife and I had a great time in Dublin and really enjoyed our stay in the Sandymount Apartment. The owner was responsive to all of our questions and she had the place ready for our arrival. Overall a perfect experience. Definitely would recommened this place.
What a nice time we had visiting Sandymount and staying in Iverna's apartment. The location is ideal, with a mesmerizing view of the Irish Sea, modern, comfortable living quarters and easy connection to the airport, downtown Dublin and to idylic seaside towns on the coast.
The property was exactly as Iverna described it and met our needs well. The Sandymount Village is within walking distance and is just charming. Iverna's guide to pubs, restaurants and local merchants was quite helpful and accurate, What are you waiting for - this is the place for you.

Firing of Aussie dopers may backfire: Vaughters
By Nick Mulvenney ,Reuters Tuesday, October 23, 2012, 12:01 am TWN
SYDNEY -- Cycling Australia (CA)'s decision to get rid of officials who admitted to doping could hamper the fight against the use of banned substances in the sport, according to Lance Armstrong whistle-blower Jonathan Vaughters.
CA sacked elite men's road co-ordinator Matt White last week after he admitted to using drugs while riding for Armstrong's U.S. Postal team.
White was followed to the door last Friday by CA Vice President Stephen Hodge, who resigned after admitting that he too had doped during his career in the European peloton.
Vaughters was one of 11 former Armstrong team mates to testify to the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) against the seven-times Tour de France champion, who is expected to be stripped of those titles by the UCI later on Monday.
American Vaughters, who has admitted to doping in his own career, said CA's decisions were wrong as the experience of having been pressured into using banned substances could be key in Australia's battle to rid the sport of doping.
"You're throwing away your greatest asset in the fight against doping, you're throwing away the greatest asset your young riders are going to have," he told ABC radio on Monday.
"When you take away someone who had to deal with the emotional stress, the emotional duress of having to eventually just be beaten down to the point where they said, 'Okay, fine, I'll do it because I don't want to give up the sport that I love,' you take that away, and you're making the problem worse."
Vaughters last year sacked White from the Garmin-Sharp team, which he set up with a clear anti-doping philosophy, for recommending a doctor who had been linked with doping to one of his riders.
Nevertheless, Vaughters said he never doubted White's position on doping.
"I fired him because he made a very poor judgement while he was on our team," Vaughters added.
"But I would never fire him, or even consider it, for what he did before. Because his stance as far as anti-doping was concerned was always very clear, in that he acknowledged that he did it to me privately and to the riders privately as well."

text: My aunt was in the DC area last week and we were looking for an STS for her. First we could not get the color combos we wanted (Black with Light Gray int. or Platinum with Light Gray int.) and second the ones that were out there were not loaded like she wants. I am in search of a fully loaded STS minus the all wheel drive. Does anyone know if the rumor about a problem with the Head Up Display delaying shipping of the loaded STS is true?

Cool story. It's nice to read about an alternative universe in which Snape still hates Potter. Anyway, please give some clarification about Voldy's whereabouts. If Bella is around, he must be as well.
Author's Response: Thanks for your comments. I'm not sure I could imagine a universe where Sev and Harry were the best of friends or anything other than barely civil, especially once the true nature of their shared paths came out. Voldemort...well, you'll see how I'm dealing with him. You're right, Bella couldn't find her purpose if there wasn't a little something from him.
Ok, so it's great, really great. The characters are real. good job. Still, I have one BIG concern: will you still continue my favorite fic, SKOM? I feel like you are losing interest in Draco and Harry...
I may have not read attentivelly the first two chapters, but when I started on this one, I knew immediatelly something funny would happen. And I was right, because it really made me laugh, especially the Voldy part. The idea of the story is great and I always admire writers with a good sense of humor. I could never write humor fics. good job!
Author's Response:
Thank you for reviewing and liking my story so much! It appears that the Lord Volders part is quite a hit! My own advice on writing humour is not to try too hard if you have to think for a long time to come up with something funny, chances are, it isnt. When I wrote this, I quite literally made up the story as I went and wrote down any absurd thought that came across in my head, and I am quite proud of the result!
And remember, if you need inspiration, theres always Skittles

Thank you all for your reviews. This trailer continues with the story "Before goodbye" on ffnet and some other nice stories. Check them out. Best is probably " Lord Voldemort and the heir of Slytherin"
Lily Luna Potter is given History of Magic homework to write about the life and achievements of one Harry Potter, and (being the abnormal weirdo that she is) she decides to write it in verse. Sadly, Lily is labouring under the delusion that she is a talented poet, even though her rhyming is almost as good as her mother's (as exhibited in CoS)…
Well this is what she wrote! Professor Binns won't know what's hit him...
A millon billion trillion Thank Yous to lunirina, who saved this from the horrific state it was in!
very nicely done!
Author's Response: Thanks =]
It was like a wizard tale. The clever Slytherin helps a hag who later repays the debt. Except that Rose Weasley wasn't a hag, and Scorpius didn't expect to call in the favour.
*Winner of the 2010 Next Generation QSQ award*
I wanted to review for many times before, but I was never logged in and too lazy to do so! This fic is really nice, catchy and you are very inventive! Good work!
Author's Response: You reviewed now, thank you! (and I wish MNFF allowed anonymous reviews. :D)
Ok, so now that I am logged on a permanent basis, I can review more often and for instance I can say that I loved this chapter. The story is getting better and better and the characterisation of both characters is excellent. Good work!
Author's Response: Thank you so much for liking the characterization and making the effort to log in and review! It means a lot. :)


text: Two days ago i purchased an 02 WRX sedan with 130,000 miles on it, all stock. Over the last two days of driving ive began to hear a clicking sound (click click click...) at low speeds from the rear. Upon researching this issue it seems like this is due to a bad wheel bearing (i hope i'm wrong). One weird thing i've noticed with my car that is never mentioned in other posts is that when i hit the brakes, the sound completely stops which causes me to think that it may be something with the brakes? I will try to provide more information as i drive more but any help would be greatly appreciated!

I lost 2 stone 2 years ago and some of it has gradually crept back on but only because I stopped going to the my group and sticking to the plan. I'm now having to lose 101bs, but cheerily, because I know it will work and that I will thoroughly enjoy the food. Also, I think that eating so much fruit and veg gives you lots of energy, so makes the whole process easier and makes you feel more in control. I never thought I would do a diet plan, but I think it's great. Very very supportive too. No guilt.
My only criticism is having a winner each week who has lost the most weight - I thought they would be encouraging steady weight loss instead.

Trendy US burger chain Five Guys, which counts Barack Obama among its fans, has this week signed for its first UK site, in London.
Charles Dunstone, founder and chairman of Carphone Warehouse, paved the way for the UK launch of Five Guys by forming a joint venture with its parent company last year. Five Guys, which takes its name from the founding Murrell family's five brothers, has more than 1000 restaurants in North America and will open its flagship outlet at 1-3 Long Acre, near Leicester Square Tube, this summer.
The chain plans to open at least four more restaurants in London this year, which it will follow with more in and outside the capital.
Dunstone became a fan of fast-growing Five Guys, which only serves fresh ground beef, on a trip to the US and is an equal partner in the British venture. But it faces strong competition from other burger restaurants in the West End, including Byron, Meat Liquor, Gourmet Burger Kitchen and Patty & Bun. Dunstone began selling mobile phones out of his Marylebone Road flat in 1989 and was Carphone chief executive from 1989 to 2010, helping him amass an £860 million fortune.

Cleaning your iPad screen is easy with the iPad Cleaning Cloth!
If you do a simple Google search for "How to clean your iPad" you will get thousands of pages on miscellaneous forums and websites with tips and tricks for cleaning your iPad.
The problem is that an alarming number of those sites and forums will give you some pretty bad information. We have read comments posted by people who have used rubbing alcohol, windex, ammonia, alcohol prep pads, jeans or sweatshirt sleeves and so many other crazy and incredibly harmful suggestions to clean their iPad screen!
We not only feel bad for these people who are too ignorant to know how to protect their own equipment but also for the people who read their suggestions and then try it themselves in turn ruining their own iPads!
So What Is The BEST Way To Clean My iPad's Screen?
After each use or when your screen needs to be cleaned follow these steps:
1. Press the Sleep Button on the top of your dirty iPad or turn your iPad off completely.
2. Shake your iPad Cleaning Cloth in the air to remove any loose particles.
3. Check your iPad's screen for any debris or large particles.
4. Blow off any debris with compressed air (if necessary) to avoid scratching your iPad's screen.
5. Place your iPad Cleaning Cloth on your iPad's screen.
6. Gently rub the iPad Cleaning Cloth in a circular motion until screen is clean.
You will see that with just a few circular strokes of your iPad Cleaning Cloth your iPad will be shining like new!
Your iPad Comes With An Oleophobic Coating on the Touchscreen:
Ok, so what?
What Oleophobic does NOT mean:
Oleophobic does not mean "Oil Proof" or "Smudge-proof" as you will still leave fingerprints on your iPad screen, this becomes obvious after using an iPad for only a few minutes.
What Oleophobic DOES mean:
The screen is coated with a chemical that will repel the oils and dirt from the skin on your fingers making it easier to clean with just a microfiber cloth like the one we sell at iPad Cleaning Cloth. The oils will not "stick" to the screen so they will be easy to simply wipe off. You won't need any cleaning chemicals, water or other fluids to clean your iPad screen, just a cleaning cloth and some elbow grease (that's another way of saying physical energy to wipe the screen, it's not an actual grease.)
Why You Shouldn't Use Rubbing Alcohol or Cleaning Solutions:
As you now know that special Oleophobic coating on your iPad's screen is there to help make wiping fingerprints, oils and dirt off of the screen easy with just a microfiber cleaning cloth. If you use rubbing alcohol or cleaning fluids on your iPad screen you will effectively remove the Oleophobic coating and leave your touchscreen naked without any protective coating. Once the coating is removed you will still get the same amount of fingerprints on your iPad screen BUT they will now be very hard to simply wipe off of the screen with the iPad Cleaning Coth or any other microfiber cloth for that matter. You have now created a lifetime of more work for yourself to keep your iPad clean…good job.
If you continue to use the rubbing alcohol or other cleaning fluids like windex on your iPad screen (which you will probably have to do since you won't be able to get the fingerprints off without them now) you will eventually start to wear down the touchscreen's sensitivity as well. Which means that your iPad will not only be harder to clean but it will become less responsive to your touch!
Not a good plan.

Jon here.
The Thief, Monk and Dragoon class characters are 3 of my 4 favorite classes in the Final Fantasy series. I'll wrap up my "Ode to" series with the final of my 4 favorites: the Ninja.
Also, I have no corrections to issue this time around.
The Ninja class appears in most main FF games and several spinoffs and they usually have several similar characteristics:
- They usually use Daggers and Boomerangs
- They have high speed but low defense and HP
- They have the Ability "Throw" and usually some "Ninjustu" magic
Ninjas through the series:
In the first Final Fantasy, the Ninja was an upgrade of the Thief. It was slightly stronger, able to equip more powerful weapons and armor and also use some low-level Black Magic.
The Ninja's greatest advantage in FFIII is it's speed. Also, it's Throw skill can deal out some pain in the DS remake.
FFIV (Edge)
Edge is probably the most recognizable Ninja throughout the series and the first (until remakes) to have the "Throw" skill and "Ninjutsu" magic. Also, he could steal. But what makes Edge so memorable is his journey to avenge the conquest of his kingdom and murder of his parents, the King and Queen of Eblan.
Ninjas are a job class in FFV, much like FFIII. They have the Throw skills and can also effect encounters as well as the success of fleeing random battles.
FFVI (Shadow)
Shadow may rival Edge as the most recognizable Ninja in the series. He's more of a loner than Edge, and a much shadier character. He has the Throw skill, but no Ninjutsu skills. He can learn magic by equipping Espers. Also, his dog Interceptor can appear in battle and attack a foe.
FFVII (Yuffie)
Yuffie is a Ninja because she uses Boomerangs. That is all.
FFIX (Amarant)
He's most recognizable by his red dreadlocks, blue skin and enormous arms. Amarant is actually a hybrid of the Monk and Ninja. He has the Throw skill of a Ninja, but fights with his hands like a Monk. His Flair skills are similar to Ninjutsu magic.
"Ninja is an advanced job available to Level 30 players who complete a subquest. They are one of the most popular "tanking" classes in the game, and can dual-wield and use Ninjutsu skills." - Final Fantasy Wiki
So, that brings a close to my "Ode to" series. I just want to throw out an Honorable Mention to the Black Mage. If I had enough time to do a 5th, the Black Mage would definitely be my pick. The most awesome Black Mage is of course Vivi.

Define "so high" ? A typical floor jack tops out at 19" high. If you're lucky maybe 23".
I dunno about you, but that won't touch the frame on my stock height 2wd 2nd gen dodge.
One would assume that he'd use jack stands (which are readily available in heights over 19"..), but he has to pick the truck up somehow to get it -on- stands. (and no, lifting by the diff housing is both not good and not always an option for the work that needs to be done)
Now, to the OP's question - I don't agree with the rest. 5" of extra height (dont stack them!) isn't going to kill anyone. If not a single one of the naysayers on this thread have never put a stack of 2x4 or 4x6 on top of a floor jack, well, I'll eat my Tilley. Of course you wouldn't get -under- the truck while it's supported that way.
It's not the way I'd do it - but I've been working on cars that need high lift jacks pretty much as long as I've worked on cars. I'd normally say "head down to harbor freight, by their 2 ton high lift long frame jack. $150-200, 30+ lift." - except it's gone from the website now, so they may have finally stopped carrying them. I've worn out 2, and am my third (in 15 years). Might be worth checking if your local store still has some in stock, they'll know what it is (because they are like 4 feet long).
There are some other "quality" jack options, but they tend to cost significantly more $$. If a $500-1000 jack is an option, let me know and I'll dig up my notes.
If it's just occasional use, though, I'd say just buy the extension and take due precautions. They're not significantly different than the way many 2 post lifts are setup for truck adapters, which are also perfectly safe when used as designed. Sure, the arm chair mechanical engineer in me wants to go on and on about the side loading blah blah blah. But in reality, if it -does- fail (and you are lifting safely), worst that will happen is the truck falls straight down, on it's wheels. Hell, that's what happens if the hydraulics blow out in your jack while you're lifting, too. Maybe the jack will kick out a bit, with small but not insignificant force.

February 26, 2011
New York, NY (rushPRnews) 02/26/11 — The consummate singer and songwriter, Tene' is best known from her hit song, "Give Him A Love," which topped the Billboard charts for four months straight. Tene' proved her young vocal chops at the world famous Apollo Theater's amateur night, winning not once but three times. Now taking an active hand in her career, the beautiful Tene' is President of her record label, Sierra Music Group, joining her trusted adviser Kyle Bynoe, CEO of the label, in charting the course of her musical journey.
Tene's record label, Sierra Music Group, is distributed by Urban Creed/Universal Music and she's working with some of today's top producers and writers, compiling her new CD, "Brave" in the third quarter of 2011. The wonderfully, poignant ballad "Your Love Completes Me" leads the way as the debut single. Tene' loves songs with substance and emotion and is still a balladeer in her heart. She wants to bring back the diversity of R&B music with strong vocals. Her new album will beautifully feature the best of that genre.
Joining the debut single of "Your Love Completes Me" on the CD will be a midtempo duet called "That Real R&B;" with her uncle, R&B vocalist Howard Hewett of vocal group Shalamar, with whom she toured for a year as a backup singer. Rounding out her eclectic CD is an up tempo number called "The Power of a Woman". Her talent and beauty still shine through, more radiant than ever, as she finally now travels her musical road and gifts the listening public with ballads that are embellished by her experiences and are filled with her heart.
Tene' will Bring Back The Romance, The Voice, The Look and The Passion with an upcoming performance at the legendary Ashford and Simpson's Sugar Bar on the Upper West Side of Manhattan on Wednesday, March 30, 2011. Her exclusive performance will also be broadcasted via live simulcast so fans all over the world can still experience her powerful and beautiful voice from their homes.
Tene' will be arriving in New York City on March 21st to accommodate press opportunities; however she will be available via phone beginning March 1st for interviews.

The HR Specialist Forum
I have a manager who isn't breaking any policies, but bends the rules regarding his own work schedule. Our managers are required to work 38 hours a week, but do have the flexibility to set their own schedules. This particular manager works his 38 hours, but does so in a four-day workweek instead of a five-day workweek. I'm getting concerning phones calls from his staff. I'm also worried that this sends a mixed message to employees and other managers. Please advise.—Yvonne, Fla.
We're reviewing tons of applications for the few positions we're seeking to fill. What's the best practice for notifying applicants who aren't hired? How do other employers do it?—Sylvia, NYC
I have been doing HR for several years for smaller companies, but don't have an HR certification. I'm now looking to further my career in HR and have started researching what it will take to make myself more valuable to larger corporations. Some employers mention certification, but others emphasize having a degree in HR. Which is more valuable: SHRM's PHR certification or a degree? Maybe I should pursue both?—Gienah
We have an office cubicle workplace. Some of our employees like to listen to music during the day. Naturally, not everyone likes everyone else's taste in music. I don't want to referee these silly fights. I want a policy that says "If you are listening to music, use headphones." Does anyone have a policy I can copy?—Laura, Boston
Like everyone else, we've been battered by the recession. We've started to turn things around, but our employees are pretty beat up by a tough business environment and a couple of layoffs we've had to do. Morale is poor. The general feeling is that we're paddling like mad just to stay in the same place. Any ideas for inexpensive but meaningful ways to show staff that we appreciate their hard work and sacrifice during hard times?—Steve T., North Carolina
Our company has a MySpace page, to which all employees were invited to join. Soon after, one of our employees posted on his own MySpace page a derogatory comment about a co-worker. Naturally, that comment showed up on our MySpace page, and now the co-worker wants us to do something about it. But what? I'm at a loss about how or whether we can do anything. Suggestions?--Anonymous
One of our employees has come to me with a request that makes me nervous. She wants to invite co-workers to attend Bible study sessions on our company's premises. The gatherings would take place before working hours in a staff picnic area on our grounds. We don't have any kind of policy addressing this. Are there any legal or other issues I should consider before I decide what to do?—SJM, Fla.
We may have to terminate an employee who has been with us for more than 10 years and has worked with people throughout the organization. When he goes, people are going to notice. Due to the nature of the situation, I don't want to issue a detailed explanation to the rest of the staff. Can I just go with "_ _ _ _ is no longer with the company," or will that just whip the rumor mill into overdrive? Are there any realistic alternatives?—Noreen, S.F.
I'm a one-person HR department, but I know a lot about payroll from an earlier job. Our finance supervisor just quit, so now I'm doing that job too. The sole remaining finance employee got a raise to reflect his increased workload, but I haven't received any extra pay. How should I approach my boss to address this disparity?—B.G., Fla.
I'm going for SHRM's PHR certification, and want to know what to expect, and how others have approached the process. I've completed the SHRM Learning System and purchased a number of resource materials that look good. But I'd love to get feedback from people who have actually been through certification. I'm especially interested in getting comfortable with how the questions are asked. Any suggestions or tips? Better yet, success stories?—Chris
