I put off my long run this weekend until today because we had a bunch of things to do earlier in the weekend. Usually, I like to figure out my mileage, route and when I'm going to run by about mid week, then get myself psyched up for the run and also fuel well leading up to it. I knew I wanted to run 14 miles, but just never figured out where I wanted to run and didn't really know when I was going to run until this morning. Sometimes that uncertainty leads to a bad run. It did today.
With the ridiculous humidity, I wasn't quick out of the blocks and my splits were getting slower and slower and slower (from 9:XX to 10:XX to 11:XX), so I pulled the plug at a little more than 10 miles. Honestly, I was relieved to be done and only somewhat bummed to not get the miles in that I wanted to.
As the day wore on, I started to get more bummed out with myself, knowing that I wasn't hurting bad later in the day, so I certainly could have toughed out a few more miles. I don't know. Not sure what I "should" think of that run, I know one bad run doesn't mean a whole lot, and its been a while since my last crash-and-burn on a long run. But I've got a bad taste in my mouth from it.
So where does this leave me? I am running the Smuttynose Half Marathon in Hampton Beach, New Hampshire in early October. It'll be my 8th half and I anticipate smashing my PR. My best time is 2:13:XX and I've run 13.1 in training at 2:01 and 2:03, so unless the weather doesn't cooperate, I will hopefully get below 2:00. I will be absolutely overjoyed if that happens!
I'm also running the half at Rehoboth in December. I am very much looking forward to meeting many of the Loopsters that I know only from the Loop and Loopville. I am going to have a ton of fun and really don't care what my time is in the race.
I've been somewhat methodically increasing my long runs over the last couple months. I ran a half at the beginning of June, then pretty much did no structured running for the rest of the month (translation: just ran whatever distance I felt like). My goal is to get to 15 miles before October so that 13.1 won't feel as long. But the thought has crept into my head that - and this really is crazy - it's only another 11 miles to do a marathon!
I've done one and would like to do another maybe. So I started looking into how I could continue to climb the ladder with longer and longer runs and still taper down for my two halfs. It can be done, but then I ran like crap today which has me doubting the viability of doing a full marathon. The thing is that it was a mental fail much more than a physical fail today.
I told myself a couple weeks ago that I would know whether I wanted to endure the training involved with a marathon when I got to 15 or 16 miles in mid/late September. If that didn't do it for me or I don't have the motivation to keep going down that path, I'll be OK with it. Doing 3 half marathons in a year and dropping my PR in that distance is a hell of a year.
I guess it's not time to make any decisions right now. I'll see where I am in a few more weeks. Things would have been a lot clearer if today's run went better.
Hope your long run was better than mine.

* Prices may differ from that shown
Both my husband and myself got some lovely toiletry sets as gifts at Christmas Time, with my husband being given a gift set from the well-known "Adidas" brand. The gift set contained items such as a 100ml EDT spray and a matching shower gel, all with the same "Team Force" fragrance. This review will discuss my thoughts about the Adidas Team Force Eau De Toilette.
The 100ml bottle of Team Force EDT can be purchased from various stockists, including www.amazon.co.uk, where the current price is around £6, with free delivery.
The packaging is nice enough, but is fairly simplistic. The familiar Adidas branding is bold and eye-catching, but my husband's bottle looks a bit different to that shown on Dooyoo. The sides of the bottle are curved, which allows the bottle to feel quite chunky. The bold 'Team Force' branding looks appealing and masculine thanks to the colours used.
I am able to detect the product's aroma easily, whilst my husband is wearing it. With a strong, spicy 'core', the aroma is very strong in its initial stages. This spicy scent has something of a notable 'tang' within it, and this reminds me of a citrus-based scent. Looking at the scent's description online, I can see that it does actually contain orange and grapefruit notes, so these may well be responsible for this 'thread' in the fragrance's overall 'voice'.
There is a notable refreshing 'edge' to the scent too, and this is evident from the spiciness in the scent; this allows it to feel quite revitalising, I think.
Whilst strong, and bold, the scent does not feel 'heady', nor is it over-powering. This has made it the perfect addition to my husband's 'everyday' collection; the scent feels more 'muted' than other scents that he owns, and so it is suitable for more everyday occasions.
True, the product doesn't feel as 'special' as some of the other fragrances in my husband's collection, but for the price paid, I wouldn't expect it to.
I think that the Adidas Team Force scent is probably suitable for a variety of age groups; it feels quite 'mainstream' in terms of its appeal, and I don't think that it feels overly 'trendy' in the way that other scents do.
In terms of longevity, the Team Force EDT performs quite well, and I am still able to detect a hint of its spicy 'core' scent on the skin in the evening, even though my husband never reapplies his chosen fragrance throughout the course of the day. I think that this result is fairly impressive, especially when the product's low purchase price is considered.
The Adidas Team Force Eau De Toilette has caused no irritation or sensitivity to my husband's skin during or after use.
Taking everything into account, I would repurchase this scent for my husband again in the future; it is pleasant and refreshing, and it lasts well throughout the day.
Launched by Adidas in 2000 Team Force is a tart citrusy scent ecommended for daytime wear /

HOSPITAL bosses have slammed a 'cruel' national e-mail hoax telling patients in the town they may have cancer.
Thousands of people across the country were sent the fake e-mail, believed to have come from Turkish and Indian 'spammers', in the last week claiming to be from the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) with with the subject line 'Important blood analysis result'.
Chris Horner, from the communications team at Warrington and Halton Hospitals, said: "Because so many people have blood tests as part of tests or routine care, the spam email was received by some of our patients who are waiting for results or have just had tests.
"We've been able to reassure them as NICE reacted very quickly to the issue.
"It's a very malicious trick to play on people that looks like it comes from a creditable source.
"NICE's advice has been to simply delete the email and not to open any links contained in it."
The hoax has been reported to the police.

Catholic Bishop: Pro-Abortion Theme of 2012 Dem Convention Was Final Straw, I'm Now a Republican
Imagine a generally conservative evangelical figure switching his party affiliation from Republican to Democratic because in his view the 2012 Republican Convention's array of speakers and the party's platform convinced him that he could no longer in good conscience be affiliated with a political party which he believed steadfastly aligned itself with sinful positions on say care for the poor or immigration reform. Network news media would surely fall all over themselves to book that preacher on their morning and Sunday shows and print publications would scramble to get an exclusive interview.
Well, that sort of treatment has not greeted the Most Reverend Thomas Tobin, the bishop who oversees the Catholic diocese of Providence in Rhode Island. At a Young Republicans event last Tuesday, Tobin noted he joined the Democratic Party in 1969, but can no longer remain one, not after the 2012 Democratic convention's war-on-women/abortion-heavy confab. Providence TV station WPRI broke the story on August 13 (emphasis mine):
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) - Roman Catholic Bishop of Providence Thomas Tobin revealed Tuesday night that he recently became a registered Republican, but he also emphasized that the church and its mission shouldn't be viewed through a narrowly partisan lens.
"The a-ha moment for me was the 2012 Democratic National Convention. It was just awful," Tobin, 65, told the Rhody Young Republicans during an event at the Holy Rosary Band Society Hall in Providence. The leader of Rhode Island's roughly 621,000 Catholics said he had been a registered Democrat since 1969.
"I just said I can't be associated structurally with that group, in terms of abortion and NARAL [Pro-Choice America] and Planned Parenthood and [the] same-sex marriage agenda and cultural destruction I saw going on," Tobin said. "I just couldn't do it anymore."
Tobin switched his affiliation to the Republican Party effective Jan. 5, according to voter records reviewed by WPRI.com. He is registered to vote from a house on the 140-acre grounds of the diocese's Gate of Heaven Cemetery in East Providence.
"I've changed my party registration now, but the fact is that the registration itself doesn't mean a whole lot to me," Tobin said.
About 60 people who attended Tobin's nearly two-hour discussion on faith and politics gave him a standing ovation before and after he spoke. He made the disclosure about his affiliation by holding up two pieces of paper - his letter from the East Providence Board of Canvassers confirming his Republican affiliation, and his baptismal certificate.
"My thesis tonight is that the two of these are related, and can be related very comfortably, and frankly if I had to choose between the two - between my party affiliation and my baptismal record - this is the one that will bring me to eternal life," Tobin said, pointing to his certificate of baptism.
"Would Jesus be a Democrat or a Republican, a liberal or a conservative?" Tobin asked. "I'm going to punt on that question and say: all of the above and none of the above. Labeling Jesus or labeling the church or labeling me depends on the particular issue."
So Tobin is making perfectly clear he votes the issues and he won't change his mind on issues because of party label, but that the Democratic Party has become so doctrinaire on abortion and gay marriage that there's no room in it for committed pro-lifers like himself.
A Google search for "Thomas Tobin" yields mostly blog entries, with nothing from major newspapers or national news feeds. The August 15 "quote of the day" at the Washington Post's online "On Faith" section excerpted Bishop Tobin's remarks, but no story on his switch to the GOP has made the paper's print edition.

Need Appliance Repair Help? Ask a Technician for Answers ASAP
Hello, Thank you for using this service, I will be helping you with your problem today
is the noise comming from inside the refrigerator or from the compressor in back ?
Sorry, I'm afraid I gave the model information for the dish drawer below the fridge! The fridge model is a Subzero UC-24CI.
The noise is coming from the vent area directly beneath the freezer - a loud hum every 15 seconds. As I mentioned, we had the fridge serviced end of June, after the unit wasn't powering on. It is cold now, but the motor sounds labored.
It is impossible for me to look behind the unit as it wedged quite tightly into cabinetry. (Last time it was serviced, I had to have someone first come remove the unit from the wall before the mechanic could do his repair.) I can tell you something else:
When I open the unit, the noise temporarily stops. However, when I push in the little button at the bottom that turns the light off, the noise starts. Let go, the noise stops; depress the button and the noise immediately starts up again.

(approx. 5 pages at 400 words per page)
Chapters 1 through 13 Summary
In Chapter One, "A Beginning," Martha Boyle answers her front door to find a woman standing there. The woman introduces herself as Olive Barstow's mother, a fact that makes Martha "gasp." The woman says that she doesn't know if Martha really knew Olive well, but that Olive had left a journal. The woman then gives Martha a page of the journal, saying that she'd wanted her to have it. Martha pushes open the screen door and the woman hands her a folded sheet of pink paper. She then says "thank you, Martha Boyle," and steps off the front stoop, turning to walk away. The woman then got on a bicycle that was obviously very old and rode away. Martha stands still for a moment, watching Olive's mother leave, and thought before she could open the sheet of paper.
In Chapter Two, "An End," Martha recounts Olive's death. Olive had been riding her bicycle on Monroe Street several weeks earlier when she was struck by a vehicle. Martha had known Olive because they attended school together. Martha recalls Olive as a quiet girl, "a loner" who had tended to stay out of the mainstream of students. As she thinks about Olive, then comes up with the image of the little girl flying through the air after being hit by the car.
In Chapter Three, "Hopes," Martha reads the journal page. It's written in Olive's handwriting and Martha imagines Olive's "thin" voice reading it to her. The journal entry is written on June 7 and indicates that Olive's dream is to become a writer. She says that she'd like to write novels that evoke emotion, as books other writers have done for her. She then presents the first sentence of the novel she imagines she'd like to write: "The orphan's secret wish was that her bones were hollow like a bird's and that she could just take off and fly away." Olive then outlines other wishes she has, including that she could visit the ocean and that she would have the chance to live in a cliff overlooking the ocean "when I'm eighteen." The final part of that entry is Olive's wish that she and Martha could become friends. Olive ends the entry with the idea that Martha is "the nicest person in my whole class."
Martha feels "eerie" and admits that it's mostly because she's holding the journal of a girl who died and that they have some dreams in common. Martha wants to be a writer but hasn't yet told anyone. She loves her visits to her grandmother who lives near the beach of the Atlantic Ocean. She says that it also feels strange that Olive thought she was nice though Martha can't figure out what she'd done to make Olive think so.
In Chapter Four, "Martha's Father," Martha goes inside where her dad, Dennis Boyle, asks who was at the door. Martha says it was "no one" and doesn't share the information about the journal. Dennis says that Martha's little sister, Lucy, is napping, and asks that Martha keep an eye on her until her mom gets home. Martha agrees. The family is preparing for their annual trip to Martha's grandmother's house. Martha calls her grandmother "Godbee."
In Chapter Five, "Lucy," Martha continues to think about Olive as she watches her little sister sleep. Martha then decides to wake Lucy and does so, saying that Lucy is "the most beautiful baby in the world," which prompts Lucy to object, saying that she's two. Martha changes Lucy's diaper and then says they're going for a walk.
In Chapter Six, "The Corner of Knickerbocker and Monroe," Martha puts Lucy in her stroller and they set out. Martha watches the cars from the sidewalk near the place where Olive was killed, and isn't sure why she'd thought she'd some sign of the tragedy. Martha gets sidewalk chalk from the storage place on Lucy's stroller. She removes her bracelet and shapes it into an "O" on the sidewalk, then writes the rest of Olive's name there. Lucy grows impatient and they head for home.
In Chapter Seven, "Phone Conversation in Mid-July," Martha recounts the day she and her best friend Holly had talked about Olive Barstow's death when it happened that July. Holly says that she'd heard Olive's head was knocked off but Martha says that wasn't true. Martha says she wishes they'd been nice to Olive and Holly counters, saying that they weren't "not nice." Martha says she doesn't think Olive had friends, and that being lonely in that way would be awful.
In Chapter Eight, "Ms. Hubbard," Martha recalls that Olive had first attended her school in February and had died in July. The night after receiving Olive's journal, Martha's mother, Alice, comes home from work. Alice Hubbard works for Wisconsin Public Radio. Martha was proud of that when she was younger but was embarrassed later in life, and secretly referred to her mother as "Ms. Hubbard."
In Chapter Nine, "Vince," Martha's brother returns home from a friend's house. Vince is exactly one year older than Martha and the two had shared a bedroom for several years until Vince declared he hated girls and moved out. Vince now stops by Martha's room almost every night to visit.
In Chapter Ten, "Airplane," Martha plans to write on the plane. She is careful that no one can read over her shoulder. When she arrives, she's written only the words "Olive Barstow."
In Chapter Eleven, "Glittery Feeling," Martha describes the feeling of anticipation she gets when she's this near her grandmother's house. Then her mother bumps into her and urges her to "move," which Martha says puts an end to the "glittery feeling."
In Chapter Twelve, "Godbee," the family arrives at the home of Dorothy Boyle, Martha's grandmother. Everyone calls her "Godbee." Martha had been the first to come up with the nickname because she was unable to say "Grandma B.," which had been short for "Grandma Boyle." The name was intended to distinguish her from Alice's mother, "Grandma Hubbard." As soon as the family arrives, Vince is running off to see his friends, the Manning boys, who live nearby. Godbee urges that Martha not run off too quickly, a suggestion that Martha is happy to obey. Lucy and Alice are walking along the beach, exploring. Martha asks where Dennis has gone and Godbee says that he's likely snooping around in her possessions, looking for medication and other items to indicate how she's doing. Godbee says it's annoying, but understands that it's the "duty of a good son." Godbee then says that she wants to know something about Martha and suggests that each day they share a piece of information about themselves. Godbee says that could be the last summer together.
In Chapter Thirteen, "Just Fine," Martha asks her father if Godbee is going to die which prompts Dennis to confront Godbee about scaring Martha. Dennis says that Martha, at age twelve, would naturally take Godbee's words to mean that Godbee was dying. Godbee tells Martha later that she isn't ill and hadn't meant to worry Martha. That evening, Dennis becomes angry at Lucy's demands for banana baby food. He yells and leaves the house, and is gone for hours.
Chapters 1 through 13 Analysis
Olive Barstow's mother tells Martha "thank you" after she's given Martha the page from Olive's journal. Olive's mom obviously knows that Olive wasn't popular with other children and that she hadn't been surrounded by friends. She doesn't know Martha and so apparently realizes that Martha and Olive weren't close. Despite this knowledge, Olive's journal indicates that Martha had done something to gain Olive's admiration. Martha says at the time that she doesn't know what it could have been and it's obvious that Olive's mother doesn't know why Olive felt that way either. The important thing to Olive's mother is that Martha had done something that Olive saw as "nice." With the knowledge that Olive had no real friends, it seems that Olive's mom is happy to know that Martha had done something to brighten Olive's life.
Martha says that her father looks for almost any reason to get away from the house. The entire situation is not immediately revealed to the reader. Martha's mom, Alice, works outside the home while Martha's dad, Dennis, is a stay-at-home dad. Dennis is apparently working on a book and has been for a long time, though he has nothing to show for it. The fact that her father is a writer doesn't seem to have played a role in Martha's decision to be a writer though she admits that she doesn't want to tell her plans to anyone because she doesn't want them to think that she's doing it to be like Dennis. Dennis, meanwhile, is apparently not very good at it and is no longer happy with the situation. Martha says that Dennis is looking forward to the fall when school starts back so that the kids are out of the house. He will later admit to being unhappy with the situation and decide that he's going to return to the workforce, a decision that immediately makes him happier.
While Lucy and Martha are at the corner where Olive was killed, Martha turns her back to the traffic and puts one foot onto the surface of the road. She seems to be trying to feel what Olive felt just before her death. Martha seems to feel a need for a greater connection with Olive, probably because she's only realized that she touched Olive's life without meaning to or realizing it.
Godbee points out that Dennis is "snooping" around in her possessions, looking for her medications as an indication of how she's doing. Godbee notes that she isn't happy about it but that she understands his concern. Soon after this conversation, Godbee says to Martha that they have to enjoy their time together because it could be their last summer vacation. It's not clear what prompts this from Godbee but it could be that she's seeing Vince run off with his friends as soon as he arrives and realizes that the children won't always want to visit their grandmother. It could also be that she's sensing her own mortality and knows that she isn't guaranteed another summer. There's no indication that Godbee is ill but the result is that Martha's afraid for her grandmother.

Cardinals closer Trevor Rosenthal will not pitch in All-Star Game
St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Trevor Rosenthal will not be available to play in Tuesday night's All-Star Game, he told reporters Tuesday afternoon.
Rosenthal felt fatigue and decided to sit out the game after speaking with his manager Mike Matheny and All-Star manager Bruce Bochy.
This was the first All-Star selection for the 25-year-old Rosenthal. He converted 26 of his 28 save opportunities in the first half, with a 1.49 ERA and 45 strikeouts in 42 1/3 innings.
Rosenthal pitched seven times in 11 days before the All-Star break and threw a total of 56 pitches in his last two outings. He struggled in his final appearance on Sunday, allowing three runs on five hits in two-thirds of an inning, including giving up the game-winning hit to Gregory Polanco.

Heavy Rotation RecordsHeavy Rotation Records Showcase: Red Oblivion / Bent Knee / Nikolas
Berklee-based Heavy Rotation Records brings this showcase of fine music from Boston. Experimental, rock, funk, metal, and indie styles of music will all be on display courtesy of Red Oblivion and Nikolas.
Red Oblivion is a rock band based out of Boston, Massachusetts with backgrounds in a multitude of styles, including classical, metal, world, pop, and electronic. Red Oblivion blends a traditional lineup with the heaviness of amplified cello in an evolving passionate collaboration.
Characterized as a blend of Brandon Boyd, "old skool" John Mayer and a "young" Elvis Costello, Nikolas has something about him that just makes you listen. Nikolas Metaxas established his vocal chops on the hit TV show X Factor (Greece), impressing millions. Shortly after earning second place on the show, he went on to represent Cyprus as a composer in the 2009 Eurovision Song Contest, with the song "Firefly" (Sony-BMG) topping many iTunes charts across Europe. Thought-provoking songwriting, inspiring vocal chops, and a growing fanbase and online presence (27,000 online fans) prove Nikolas is here to stay His first album is titled Square One.
The dark winters of Boston bore a band that crawled out of the womb and called itself Bent Knee. Orchestral textures, haunting vocals, dynamic sound, and presence are the calling card for this twisted little group. When taken to the stage, seven creatures sawing away on their instruments make for an immersive journey and an intimate conversation all at once.

Stock to Sell #3 – Deutsche Bank AG (DB)
Deutsche Bank AG (NYSE:DB), a global securities and bank holding company headquartered in Germany, has recently had its earnings downgraded by Wall Street analysts as problems in the EU intensify.
It was on our list of Stocks to Sell in May. Technically the stock completed a dreaded head-and-shoulders top on May 2, as it broke the neckline at $42.50. Since the high at the head of the formation is at $52, the approximate target for the breakdown is $32, where the stock found support in September 2011. A bounce in late June popped DB to its 50-day moving average at over $37, where it should be sold.
For speculators, DB is a candidate for a short sale. Check with your broker regarding margin and other shorting requirements, including whether the stock may be borrowed. And use a stop-loss order to protect against potentially unlimited losses.

Straight Talk From The Fed
By Maria Bartiromo
A lot of ink has been spilled and hot air emitted over comments Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke made to me and two other guests at the Apr. 29 White House Correspondents Dinner in Washington. His point was that the markets and the media had misread his remarks to Congress the previous week: A more flexible approach to raising interest rates was interpreted as softness. The larger point was that trying to be clearer about the central bank's goals is not always easy. But there is a new openness at the Fed. That was evident when I had a chance to visit with Tim Geithner, president of the influential Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
How worried are you about $70 oil cutting into economic growth?
The world has handled this energy price shock surprisingly well. But...future price moves could cause more damage than they have so far.
How worried should we be about the imbalances created by the twin deficits [budget and trade]?
The imbalances in the world economy -- they are not solely in the U. S. -- are too large and are clearly unsustainable. But...we will be living for the next decade with the shadow caused by these imbalances and also with the risk they present of occasional volatility of asset prices and perhaps periods of slower growth here and elsewhere.
Has real estate really slowed down?
A range of indicators suggest housing is cooling, but...the hard question is assessing the degree to which households might become more cautious in response to the end of the housing boom.... So far we haven't seen much evidence of higher savings or slower spending growth. But that doesn't mean we won't.
What regulation is appropriate for hedge funds?
Hedge funds...help make our markets more liquid, more efficient, better at matching capital to its highest return. But...there is some risk that they could exacerbate a crisis. The most effective way to mitigate this risk is...for major financial institutions to maintain an adequate cushion -- in terms of capital, margins, liquidity -- against a more adverse future and to make sure the infrastructure that supports our markets is robust. Our principal objective [is] to make sure the core is strong enough to withstand financial distress in the hedge fund sector.
Is there another LTCM [the Long-Term Capital Management crisis of 1998] lurking out there?
Even though the core institutions are strong in terms of capital, and risk is now spread more broadly, rapid growth in derivatives and hedge funds creates risk that future financial stress may be harder to manage.
How have things changed inside the Fed post-Greenspan?
This is an institution where the chairman has a big role, so of course there will be change. But as Ben [Bernanke] has said, his basic approach to thinking about monetary policy is very similar to Greenspan's. I suspect that even though the way the meetings are run will change, you will see continuity in policy.
Will the Fed be more transparent?
It's a sensitive question to answer. Ben is a champion of transparency in monetary policy, but he also recognizes that there are limits to what we know about the economic forecast and what that means to monetary policy. And he understands that we can't give the markets more clarity about the forecast or about future policy than we have ourselves.
Sarbanes-Oxley is controversial in the U.S. but even more so overseas. And international companies seem to be increasingly listing in London and Hong Kong as a result of the tight regulation. What is the risk to U.S. capital markets? And is SOX worth the enormous cost for U.S. companies?
It is important to try to preserve the basic benefits of SOX and achieve the broad objectives that motivated it, but with a better ratio of cost to return. We do see some troubling signs...that some people [may be] less willing to raise capital in the U.S. [It's] important to watch this very carefully. Anything that creates a significant risk of making people less willing to raise capital in the U.S. or to invest in the U.S. should be a concern.

Chris Neil has recorded two Gordie Howe hattricks in his career, one in 2001 and another in 2010.
He almost had his third - and then his first three-goal hattrick - Saturday night at the Air Canada Centre.
Speaking Sunday morning after the Senators had a workout and a yoga class in their hotel gym, Neil said he turned down a request from Leafs tough-guy Colton Orr to fight on the very first shift of Saturday's game.
"I thought about it," he said. "It could have happened. It was just one of those things that if you get out and he's playing more through the game, it's an opportunity. For me going out and playing anywhere from 10-15 minutes, it's not the best trade off for us.
"I've got to do it when it's right for our team, not myself."
Neil went on to tie a career highs for goals (two) and points (three) in a game. All he was missing for the Gordie Howe was the fight that never did materialize.
However, he would have been more pleased scoring his first three-goal hat trick, especially if it helped the Senators to a win.
"I almost had it," said Neil. "I hit the goalie in the shoulder and the puck was rolling a bit. I didn't get a lot on it. I went backhand, tried to go up over him. I think that was a great opportunity.
I came to the bench and I was a little upset it didn't go in. That's the way it goes."
Neil wasn't even sure the puck crossed the line for what turned out to be his second goal. Nobody was, at first. It wasn't until during a TV break that replays revealed he had knocked the puck over the line from a goal crease scramble.
"I knew it had a chance," said Neil. "After I shot it I poked at (goalie Jonathan Bernier), to kind of shove him back in. and then I got knocked down, so I couldn't see. I asked the ref to check it. He's like, 'yeah we'll check it." So I knew it had a chance."
What better way for Marc Methot to show the decision makers he deserved to be on the Olympic team than to shut down Team Canada captain Sidney Crosby at the Consol Energy Center, right? Except Methot doesn't look at it that way.
"I respect the team they picked," said Methot, who started his NHL season as a longshot to be on the Olympic squad. "I'm competitive and I wanted to make that team, but making an example of Sidney has nothing to do with regards to Team Canada.
"My job is to shut him down simply to win the game, as an Ottawa Senator. That's all I care about."
Methot, the former blue line partner of Erik Karlsson, has thrived of late in a shutdown tandem with Eric Gryba.
"The last game I know Grybs and I did a pretty decent job on (the Penguins)," said Methot. "At the same time, that's one game, and Sid is one of the best players in the world. He can make you look pretty stupid if you're not focused. Even when you are focused, he can still take advantage of you.
"I have a tremendous amount of respect for him and how he prepares for games. I've got to make sure I'm ready."
Methot said he and Gryba have already developed some chemistry, although the latter made a mistake in an attempt to hit the former with a pass on what turned out to be Toronto's fourth goal Saturday night.
"I think he's been playing great and I love playing with him," Methot said of Gryba. "I find we're very similar, in terms of having that defensive mindset. When you're shutting down a line, it's good to know that. I like playing with him. He's smart, he's big, he can move, he's been a treat to play with so far."
Colin Greening stopped his goal-scoring slump, with the help of a smooth pass from Neil, at 10 games when he notched his fifth of the season in the second period Saturday night. "It was nice," he said of finally bulging the twine again. "I've been trying to produce more offensively, so I'll give credit to Chris there. He made a great pass. I was just happy I was able to bury it in. I was happy from that standpoint. It's just unfortunate the game result didn't follow." ... Greening also had an assist Saturday, giving him 14 points on the season. If he was producing at a higher rate, Murray might not be desperately searching for an offensive winger. "I don't take it as personal at all," said Greening. "If that's the type of player he wants, it can only add to our team." ... Players were happy to have a day away from the rink, and a chance to watch the Super Bowl together Sunday. "It'll be nice to just be around the guys and watch some TV, it's a huge event, we're all huge football fans," said Methot. "Any time there's a big sport event and you can get the team together it's usually fun. We're right back at it tomorrow and we're playing a helluva hockey team."

The UK's first charity organisation training Assistance Dogs for British ex-servicemen and women with service-related mental health conditions.*
"Helping LEAD Independent Lives"
The PALS (Partner Animal Life Skills) Programme is designed to increase independence and improve quality of life for current and
former serving members of the Armed Forces with "invisible injuries".
The training of each assistance dog is tailored to the individual person based on their own specific needs.
We never endorse a dog as a solution to mental health difficulties, but ONLY as a valid aid to recovery - in conjunction with a relevant treatment or care plan.
The dogs on our programme are not for convenience purposes, they are trained specifically for the needs of an individual with a mental health disability.
Training dogs for people living with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) requires very specialist knowledge and skills - in both the trainer and for the dog.

Dear Diary is Banged Up, Could Have Used a Shirt
This is how Brady Hoke sees an 'M'. [Upchurch]
Recruits: if you are reading this, do not believe the man in the red/crimson track suit telling you that criticism of Brady Hoke or his staff means Michigan is going to lose him anytime soon. Those are very bad men who are likely to have you downsized to Southern Alabama or regularly featured in photographs and articles that highlight how bad you are at tackling. You also should pay no attention to bloggers who suggest you should ride pine until 2016 and that your future coach needs to win X amount of games until then to even be his coach. Also I shouldn't be talking to you.
Fifth-year seniors >>>>>>> freshmen on special teams. That's why I strongly disagree with the conclusions of AC1997's assessment of this year's redshirting, while appreciating the hell out of the diary (quick read, too). The only one he's mad about is Da'Mario Jones, while Bosch and York are "questionable." I know we did this recently in a roundtable but my take is different:
- Obviously play him: Smith, Butt, Gedeon. All were effective and needed.
- Not mad but needed a shirt: Shane—we've discussed this. Green but you kind of have to play five-stars. Bosch but chances are good there's still two decent 2017 starting guards out of Samuelson, Dawson, and Mason Cole and other 2014/15 recruits.
Me in 2017 is (probably) very upset about this. [Fuller]
- Mad: The safeties and receivers and here's our big disagreement. Dymonte Thomas and Delano Hill are perfect examples of the reason we have a tag about burning redshirts on special teams. Jones & York—Mathlete keeps telling us that returning experience at receiver is a strong indicator of a good offense and vice versa, and unless a receiver has a massive talent lead on the DBs trying to cover him WR effectiveness is about route running and blocking and reps reps reps.
- Pick ONE cursed freshman corner: Both Jourdan Lewis and Channing Stribling played, both were pretty good for freshmen, one was needed. Theory: Uber recruits tend to cast a shadow on recruiting their positions, so it's important to have good stocks ahead of them (see: Russell Bellomy/Shane Morris situation). Peppers doesn't fill a depth chart by himself, and if he really is Woodson reincarnate* he'll be gone to the NFL after winning the 2016 Heisman and then we're left with Whitley and Howard.**
At the risk of sounding like every NFL columnist who thinks every franchise needs to adopt the strategy of whichever team just won the Superbowl, the reason Michigan State and Wisconsin have been to Indianapolis twice apiece, despite recruiting classes that top out like our (mediocre-for-Michigan) 2011 haul, is because they redshirt almost everybody and keep them around.
It's a luxury of stable programs, and Michigan is still paying for not being one of those for the latter half of the 2000s. Denard would have been nice to have this year, obviously. How badly did you wish for Vincent Smith when the RBs were getting Gardner killed? How's Michigan's pass rush if you add fifth years from Roh and Campbell to it? Brandin Hawthorne could have let you put a shirt on Gedeon. Developed talent is good. Fifth year seniors are good. Leastways they're better than a marginal improvement in kickoff coverage for a team that rarely scores touchdowns.
*[Nobody is Woodson reincarnate. The thing about the greatest players in the history of the game is they don't grow on trees.]
** [I mean who wants 1998 Todd Howard starting? He's a true freshman. He's short. He doesn't know how to press yet. He's…he's right behind me isn't he?
Nope, he's over there by Brian.]
That's not what I expected. Okay, reader. Zoom out, cock your head sideways, and tell me with just a glance what you think this diary was about:
Turnover analysis? A deep look inside offensive stats? An estimated timetable for improvement? Nope: try a "when do we fire this guy" post.
Deep, statistical analysis to answer rhetorical fan questions that have simple answers not requiring statistics (Michigan isn't firing Brady Hoke anytime soon): these are my readers tag activated. Really it's a case of bad title—what he's doing is comparing Hoke's coaching stops to those of the most successful coaches in recent history, concluding that Michigan needs to win 20 games in the next two seasons (and probably a national championship) to have his name placed among that pantheon. Expectations are probably around 17, with the fanbase getting mighty grumpy if that number dips below 16.
Your regular etc. LSA tackles (ha!) the defense, which straddled the B+/A- line all year until it faced Miller-Hyde without its middle linebackers.
[After the jump: a very meta board]
State Of The Site, Late 2013
I may or may not do something like this again, but UMHoops does 'em and they seem like a good idea. Since I've mentioned my general dissatisfaction with the way things have been going around here in a couple of different formats, I figure a fuller explanation is due to everyone who doesn't listen to the podcast or care about Twitter, and Twitter was about six sentences anyway.
I've gotten a lot of emails and tweets in support and while I appreciate them a great deal, I feel like it's not really all that bad and perhaps I haven't expressed any of this clearly enough. So here's an attempt.
We moved servers just before the season, and for some reason this imploded the Drupal module we were using that did the voting/comment-graying. Don't get me started on that unless you want the animated gif above to be my fate.
The new server is a champ, and was direly needed. We only blew up during the Hand commitment aftermath, and I guarantee you that the blog would have been crushed four or five other times during the year if we had not moved. At times this has been a mixed blessing—it probably would have been nice to be down after Penn State—but having your internet site on the internet is a goal.
The cost was steep, as without the obvious disapproval provided by your comment shrinking into a gray box, dumb comments multiplied and fights about those comments multiplied since there was not an obvious indicator that other people had already dismissed it. I felt this would happen but had very little time to do anything about it since this event happened smack-dab in the middle of me pounding out the 50k-word season preview.
Flaming went up, signal got obscured, and things veritably roiled.
We brought Brandon on board to be a recruiting reporter and he posted an interview with a 2016 kid; he gave us a picture in which he looked pretty young. I thought nothing of it because I follow hockey closely and there kids who don't have to shave commit all the time. (A kid born in 1998(!) just committed. The OHL speeds up their timelines.) Michigan just took a 2016 commit in football, and has a half-dozen offers out. But this resulted in a comment thread in which a lot of people made jokes about the kid not having to shave; others put on their Serious Issue faces and wondered if this was ethical. Then the prospect posted a screenshot of people making fun of him on twitter. SMH, man.
By this point we'd had a lot of crap on the board and this was a seeing-red moment. I posted a thread about how this was unacceptable, etc., whereupon there was a huge comment thread in which concern trolling featured heavily. The ethics of talking to high school kids about where they might go to college was frequent topic.
This was and is ridiculous. We're not about to Rosenberg these kids, both because we're not [REDACTED] 5'2" [REDACTED] goobers who'll do someone dirty to get ahead in the world and that going Rosenberg on someone would completely crush us with our readers, deservedly.
We're going to ask them softball questions and publish them after correcting any spelling mistakes, and you, the reader, are going to post comments like "Good luck wherever you go!" because that's the social contract we have here. That's how this works. You are going to assume that high school kids are going to read anything they can about themselves online, and we're going to throw Charmin at them in slow motion. This is not hard-hitting journalism here.
Anyway. The primary concern troll was a guy who'd been around since the very beginning of the site, chitownblue. He quit in a huff once, then came back as chitownblue2, and almost never appeared except to chide someone about something. At some point virtually everyone who writes for the site complained to me about him. The rest of the people who had posted things that broke the social contract in that thread quickly apologized; he dug in to fight the battle of the Somme. Another complaint about him happened in the midst of that thread, during which my dander was up and finger already hovering over the button. So I banned him, and various compatriots. And I've had an itchy trigger finger since.
They'd been around forever. I regret nothing, except that I waited so long. I hated that guy.
A friend sent me this post from 4chan's founder in response to similar issues he'd had, in which he cites another post from Steve Pavlina about why he shut his popular forums down. Pavlina talks a lot about entitlement of longtime users and standards that he felt weren't being met, both of which I kind of feel. But moot's thing is the thing:
Something that's always surprised me is how often people seem to forget how large the overall 4chan community is outside of their own respective interaction with it. Some simply don't care, but I think others plain don't realize they're just one of millions of people who post and browse 4chan on a monthly basis. …
My view is that it simply isn't possible nor prudent to attempt to please everyone, and so I don't. This can be misinterpreted as not caring, but it's far from it—it's just a reflection of my belief that the needs of the community outweigh the needs of individuals. Which is an ideal I think most would agree with, but when emotions run wild and tensions run high, we often lose sight of it.
The general rule of thumb is that 10% of your readers will read the comments/forums and 1% will leave most of them. I believe our numbers are quite a bit higher than that, but even so that the the primary thing that happens in the comments is lurkers reading them. From the perspective of the commenters these people do not exist. From my perspective, they're the majority of the readerbase.
Most of these people seem to like the site. They visit it. That majority has not been reflected in the comments. Of late when people recognize me I wince a bit, because I'm not sure how this interaction is going to go. I'm kind of waiting for someone to unload on me. This never happens.
As the season's gone along this disconnect has become apparent. And I'm finding the complaints harder to deal with because with the demise of voting so many of them have become personal attacks hardly sheathed in anything resembling logic. Brandon just took a lot of crap for posting that usually when recruits are open with him that means they're excited about Michigan and Malik McDowell was tight-lipped, which may not bode well. This exploded into controversy for some reason: that reason is there are a bunch of people who just complain about everything about the site.
Why these people can't let go and do something else, I don't know. They're locked in a prison of their own devising, being miserable about the state of the blog while they make it worse by constantly complaining about it.
I am going to help both these folks and myself escape from purgatory by hitting the eject button on them. Like this guy who has 41,000 points, most of which seem to be accumulated complaining about the site. And this guy. Great news for everyone: they're banned. Now they are free to explore the rest of the internet, perhaps to find something they don't hate.
This represents a policy change. In short, that is: if the people who write for this site hate you we will ban you. That is the upshot of the twitter burst and the podcast thing. This is not really a change for most people since we did that for anyone with a few points who came in guns blazing. This mostly applies to folks like guy I just banned who'd accumulated the third-most points on the site. I hated that guy! For three years! And out of some idea about respecting the community I let him fart all over it.
To respect the community, we should ban jerks, even if they've been around so long that it seems that there must be some redeeming value in having them around.
If you don't like the way the comments are laid out, or you think there should be more jumps, or fewer jumps, or have a substantive disagreement with what I think, or even have argument-free opinions I roll my eyes at every six months or so, fine. I have to get to know you to loathe you. All you people are good. In fact, here are protips to not get banned under this new regime:
- Don't have an avatar. You're less likely to get noticed.
- Don't be a jerk to people who write for the site. Much more difficult that #1, but still doable if you try.
- Don't constantly complain about the people I hire. If you want to send me an email, fine. Publicly crapping on the other guys who write for us is filed under jerk.
- Don't get mad at me for having a particular emotional state. This happened constantly throughout the season, as if the internet tough guys who were taking the bullets the season threw at them could somehow improve my mood by berating me.
I can understand how the last few years have put people in a place where they find me irritating after once enjoying the site, but all the comments in the world aren't going to be able to change what is primarily a sports blog about what it feels like to be a Michigan fan. If you feel differently, okay! I accept that you feel differently. If you want me to feel like you, that is an argument you are welcome to have anywhere else.
It's been a trying year for everyone, and I'm about to go figure out how to get the damned voting back on comments, so hopefully things will recede from this, their irritating zenith. Thank you to everyone who did not expect me to be an emotional clone of themselves this year, which is like 99% of you. I enjoy you.
Dear Diary Has Moved on to Appreciation
This isn't a stage of grief but it is a stage of life: at some point during the long process of disintegrating into a grotesque version of yourself, you stop asking rhetorically when the kids will visit, stop being horrified at the exponential indignities, stop trying to convince everybody you're still just as capable as ever, and just decide to be tickled to death at anything good. You're past caring what ol' so-and-so thinks, and save your opinion that Alabama is something to be ashamed of, not commit to, for the people at your bridge game.* When the doorbell rings you expect it to be Death; if it's the grandkids, we'll order subs and won't that just be grand!
MGoBlog, you've reached the Appreciation stage. Right now on the board you can see a thread for appreciation of Jabrill Peppers, and appreciation itself, and one for Al Borges, and I even made one for you, dear readers. Where are the rest? Where did they come from? I'll allow you this peek behind the curtain:
Poor Ace. We'll put that one with Treadwell's and Levenberry's. And Armani Reeves and Sam Grant and Josh Garnett and Bri'onte Dunn and Anthony Standifer (the second time) and all of Tim's 2011 opponent previews, and some weirdness Brian puts up every once in awhile. Okay ONE example:
<) )> ooohh
/ \
I don't know. But that's your user content this week: people admitting our program feels every year of 134. Next time we have Ohio State over let's wear our ratty sweatpants and make fun of their latest girlfriend. What is she 25? Really.
* [The Big Ten is analogously a bridge game.]
The Diary to Read if You Still Care is the one about how experience seems to matter a lot on the interior of the offensive line but not so much on the exterior. Get ready for Michigan and Purdue to be extreme examples of a gentle trend:
Having two 5th year senior tackles don't seem to matter at all. Having an average of 1 year in the program among the three interior guys is not good, but it's not death either: the second star to the left over Michigan is UCLA. Gandalf the Maize, you are the Diarist of the Week. Also I like your wizard hat.
You probably already saw the incredibly detailed one by Space Coyote where he disagrees with Brian over whether Kerridge should be able to make that one block. I have a unifying theory: the part of the brain that has the ability to release the enzymes with which to formulate excuses is often destroyed in the process of playing or coaching football. Ask a coach sometime about the Alabama game last year; he'll probably tell you that was on execution too.
The Other Diary to Read if You Still Care is by a former D3 fullback who went over three complaints we've had about the offensive coaching:
- Don't know their personnel/strengths
- Stubbornly sticking to an offense their players can't run.
- Tipping calls
The anecdotal approach both addresses where our expectations are too high (they can't run simple stuff AND not be predictable) but mostly confirms the general complaints about stubbornness and misusing the personnel.
Etc. I think Brian linked to the weeklies in previous posts, but if you missed it here's parallels between Michigan and the Soviet Space Program. Dragonchild wants to bring helpful signs for the other team that say "WE'RE RUNNING" or "WE'RE PASSING" that our fans can use to prove just how predictable they're being. Has nobody considered what would happen if Borges just starts calling whatever's on the signs?
I was right about where they'd put the new jug scores:
There are five lines up here, and room for six under each M—seven if they don't have header rows beneath. So that's maybe 26 years before we have to worry about how to fit more scores on the jug gain. How did we beat them 42-13 this year?
ETC. Victors5 broke down the offense by play and formation from UFRs. Rakefight's trying to boycott the preferred seat donation.

Dear Diary Bans Brian
It would seem obvious
Event reminder: MGoBlog is coming to Chicago next Friday. Moe's Cantina, River North, 6-9 p.m.
The coping mechanisms kicked in about Tuesday, and the diaries flowed. The best, I thought, was by Ron Utah, who took this base alignment
…from the UFR and pointed out why it's hard to attack this in myriad ways because MSU's defense is good. That is true, but it doesn't invalidate the primary complaints: it isn't cohesive. Indiana faced the same defense and their OL isn't all that great, but they have committed themselves to running option routes and tempo, and it works because it puts the offense mostly on the shoulders of three really good receivers to execute. A short list of some of the hands Michigan gambled on:
- Toussaint's pass blocking vs. Denicos Allen blitz
- Funchess's threat as an inline blocker vs. MSU having watched Funchess this season at all
- Half-hearted play-action on 2nd and 15 when Michigan hasn't shown a run out of that formation in ever vs. MSU safeties' ability to read play-action.
State's defense is great, and that gives teams limited options for beating them. But the offensive coaching was awful independent of that, on the game level more so on a macro level: They haven't been able to figure out from week to week what the hell kind of offense they are, let alone who's going to be playing it. Eventually they want to be a TE-mismatch outfit but right now there isn't a single TE or RB on the roster who can block. I get it, but it's not getting better because in three years nobody on that staff has been able to answer "what are we going to do about it?"
The OL can't block either. Well the freshmen can't and hey, they're freshmen. But since OL coaches are particularly difficult to judge (especially when their oldest recruits are all redshirt freshmen this year) Erik_in_Dayton went over all of Funk's previous OL charges going back to Ball State. No conclusions—almost everybody was a 2-star recruit—but interesting read.
Meanwhile Gameboy has been trying all sorts of ways of assessing Michigan's O-line experience versus that of other teams. In three attempts he's got a bunch of data and no sense to make of it still because Michigan has two extremes and the coaches don't do things to cover up for their weak points. The chart at right shows O-line starts and game experience. His big mistake I think is averaging: Team One has a tackle with thirty starts and a left guard with none; Team Two has a tackle and guard who've started next to each other for fifteen games. Both average fifteen starts, but Team Two has a big advantage that is hidden by your method.
Chunkums put up a survey to ask if you want to fire which coaches, but your feelings are irrelevant since this staff won't be budged unless there's wholesale failure the rest of the year and Dave Brandon's pimp hand has to step in. Even then, what are the chances Michigan grabs the soon-to-be-unemployed Nebraska OC we're pining over? What's that guy going to do with Morris and Speight? It's clear now that Borges should never have been brought here in the first place, but then a world where Michigan hung on to Calvin Magee for a few years (as OSU did with Fickell) comes with its own negatives. Either way the future is what matters now; if we're going to advocate anything maybe it's a consultant who can teach Borges constraint theory.
While you're assessing, here's a handy chart of Michigan's games under Hoke by dnak438, with the betting lines included. I think jamiemac once told me that Michigan's final lines, like ND's and other power programs, are worse predictors because they're responsive to the huge number of people who bet knowing nothing more than that Michigan is traditionally pretty good. Early lines are more accurate. By the way dnak took my suggestion of rotating the chart 45 degrees. This week I'm suggesting overlaying last week's to see progression:
[Jump to find out how Brian got banned, and you can too!]
Nate Silver and the future of media
Colby Cosh on the rise of guys with their own portable audiences.
Come Meet Marlin Jackson (and some bloggers)
On Monday I tweeted there would be some interesting Meta announcements on here. The first: indie HTTV shall return, depending on how that looks----------------------->
The second is we're finally having an in-person event that's not in the middle of July:
On Mount Blogmore the beards are made of bacon
When? The Michigan Spring Game event will be at 12:30 at Michigan Stadium. Whenever that's over, wander your way over to R.U.B. We'll be wandering at the same pace so probably won't really be underway until an hour or so after the game ends.
Where? Make your way to R.U.B. BBQ Pub at that corner (State & Packard) that was the Packard Pub, or the Artisan Bistro, or the Southside Grill, or the Atlanta Bread Company, or the Delta Restaurant, or Espresso Royale, or somebody's farm, depending on when you were last in Ann Arbor.
Who? You know, the guys. Brian Cook. Ace Anbender. Heiko Yang after Borges says he can leave the presser. Eric Upchurch. A two-time All-American defensive back. Tacopants. That tubby yutz with a beard…
Wait, you said… Marlin Jackson will be there to join our Q&A session, and will also talk a little about his Fight for Life Foundation, which sponsors programs to give kids some of the opportunities that Marlin himself didn't have in Sharon, Pa. I'll let him explain:
I had to fight against never knowing my father, having a drug addicted mother, being neglected, moving from home to home, and not having any positive role models. I had to fight for my life, the life that I wanted, the life that was just above the horizon of the ghetto that I could not see. The more I experienced beyond the confines of my childhood, the more I became encouraged to fight for all that is right and just in the world. My hope is to give kids who grow up as I did a fighting chance to make it in the world and to let them know that their environment does not have to dictate who they are in a negative way.
Some of the programs he runs are Field of Dreams, which provides incentives for kids to "gain yards" through scholastic achievement and community service; Seal the Deal football camps; and R.A.P. which uses music and the arts to help kids stabilize their lives.
How? This was all made possible thanks to Jared of Sports Power Weekends, who's so good at putting stuff together he does it for a living (he's the guy who organizes those hotel+bus+ticket+tailgate+tshirt trips to away games). Jared will be there for you to thank in person, or if you want to sign up for his packages. At the moment he's planning trips to Iowa on 11/23, Northwestern on 11/16, and for out-of-towners, some in-Ann Arbor programs for Notre Dame and Michigan State.
Need help with this? Yeah. We're going to have some computers set up so we can liveblog the event for those who can't be in Ann Arbor, and kinda help us field questions and whatnot. Moderators: that's the ticket! We need mods. Live mods. Mod mods.
Cost? No cover or anything. We'll order when we get there and split the bill, though a few people offered to get some rounds. If you feel especially privileged to be there and want to put money somewhere, Marlin's Foundation has a Kickstarter-like system of donation levels via paypal.
Why R.U.B. The consensus was that we like beer and ribs. A lought.
RSVP? In the comments I guess. Just trying to get an estimate within +/-15 to give Omar, who's kindly letting us use his place.
Wait no Dear Diary? Where's my Moment of Zen?
