Selected UNIDO projects
UNIDO field projects are in line with the three dimensions of inclusive and sustainable industrial development
Creating shared prosperity
Partnering for Stability and Recovery in Somalia
Five projects in the Federal Republic of Somalia placed great emphasis on upgrading vocational and commercial skills, especially for youth and women.
Cabo Verde - Empowering youth for change
The Entrepreneurship Curriculum Programme was implemented in 12 selected pilot schools, with 100 teachers having participated in in-service teacher training.
Global - Agribusiness and agro-industrial development
In partnership with other development partners and UN organizations, UNIDO initiated a joint programme (3ADI) in the areas of agribusiness value chains, food security, policies, financing and related trade. The initiative calls for the accelerated development of agribusiness and agro-industries to ensure value addition to agricultural products of developing countries.
Lebanon - Creating sustainable livelihoods for communities affected by influx of Syrian refugees
This project is designed to improve livelihood opportunities available in the host communities in Northern Lebanon affected by the refugee influx. It goes about this by increasing job opportunities in the furniture industry, particularly, in micro, small and medium-sized enterprises.
Southern Mediterranean - Development of Clusters in Cultural and Creative Industries
Through clusters and business linkages, UNIDO is strengthening the formal private sector in Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestine and Tunisia, as well as promoting regional cooperation in the Southern Mediterranean.
Advancing economic competitiveness
Colombia - Quality programme for the cosmetics sector
The objective of the project is to foster Colombia's integration into the regional and multilateral trading systems by enhancing its trade capacities and performance. This will be achieved partly through the strengthening of the National Quality Infrastructure and a first pilot support programme aimed at enhancing and improving the cosmetic sector's capacity, in particular products derived from natural ingredients, to comply with international quality, private and sustainability standards.
Côte d'Ivoire - Improving the competitiveness of Ivorian enterprises in non-traditional export sectors
The programmen aims to improve the quality infrastructure of 16 West African states, thereby increasing the competitiveness of enterprises across the region, while ensuring better consumer protection.
ECOWAS - West Africa Quality Programme
The programmen aims to improve the quality infrastructure of 16 West African states, thereby increasing the competitiveness of enterprises across the region, while ensuring better consumer protection.
Global - Trade facilitation: smoothing the path to global markets
The requirements of WTO's new Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA) and other agreements represent a major challenge as well as an enormous opportunity for developing countries who rarely have adequate facilities in place to boost trade. UNIDO's programme offers support to member countries to overcome the challenges and make the most of this opportunity. The essential building block for effective and efficient implementation of TFA lies in testing, inspection and
Haiti - Improve trade integration
The project aims to strengthen Haiti's export capacity and improve its competitiveness in regional and international markets. The main focus is to set up a Haitian Bureau of Standards or Bureau Haïtien de Normalisation to help create an environment that will support the reconstruction process, encourage exports, and protect consumers from poor-quality products.
Iraq - Upgrading national quality system
The comprehensive technical support programme addresses all essential elements in Iraq's National Quality System: quality policy and legal reforms, standardization,
metrology, accreditation and conformity assessment services.
Malawi - Development of a robust standardization, quality
assurance, accreditation and metrology infrastructure
The objective of the project is to strengthen the overall national quality conformity assessment infrastructure and integrate it into the international quality infrastructure. The project will focus on assisting agro-based producers and organizations in achieving relevant certification for selected products and increasing income for smallholder farmers.
Mozambique - Business environment support and trade facilitation
UNIDO supported the establishment of a legal metrology framework in Mozambique and helped the National Institute of Standardization and Quality to develop its legal metrology services.
Myanmar - Strengthening the national quality infrastructure
UNIDO, in collaboration with the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Myanmar Food Processors and Exporters Association, is strengthening Myanmar's
national capacity to provide internationally recognized laboratory testing services to food producers and exporters.
Pakistan - Trade related technical assistance programme
To help revive Pakistan's fishery exports, UNIDO implemented two successive trade-related technical assistance programmes. They assisted the Marine Fisheries Department in applying Sanitation Standard Operating Procedure, Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points, and cold chain procedures along the supply chain.
Sri Lanka - Enhance the competitiveness of cinnamon value chain
The prroject promotes internationally recognized food safety certifications, especially GMP certification for processing units. It is also helping Sri Lanka obtain Geographical Indication (GI) protection for Ceylon Cinnamon.
Safeguarding the environment
Ethiopia, India, Kenya - The Low Carbon Low Emission Clean Energy Technology Transfer (LCET) Programme
The LCET programme provides a comprehensive technology transfer mechanism in developing countries.
West Africa - ECOWAS Regional Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (ECREEE)
In order to improve access to modern, reliable and affordable energy services and accelerate the uptake of renewable and energy efficiency technologies, the project assisted the ECOWAS countries in the establishment of ECREEE, a unique regional renewable energy and energy efficiency promotion agency in sub-Sahara Africa.

The Los Angeles City Council voted Tuesday to ban medical marijuana dispensaries in the city, the culmination of years of controversy over the sale of pot here. Meanwhile, in Oakland, a federal crackdown closed the nation's largest dispensary amid protests and demonstrations. But authorities rarely seem to address the real issue about marijuana in California: Is it good medicine?
Some proponents of medical marijuana argue that pot is "natural" and therefore better, or at least no worse, than legally prescribed drugs, which may be addictive and may carry dangerous side effects. But natural is not the standard for whether a drug is safe and effective.
Marijuana advocates also say that physicians who warn against marijuana merely want to push prescriptions. But just because some doctors practice bad medicine with legal drugs doesn't make marijuana good medicine. In most cases, it isn't.
Anyone who wants to get a medical marijuana card knows there are unscrupulous doctors who will give you a recommendation with few questions asked. Without doubt, medical marijuana hands a get-out-of-jail-free card to people who just want to get high. Those who get a card and indulge in the infrequent use of marijuana will probably experience few problems. But the situation is different with chronic marijuana use.

Zombie Baseball
The End Of The Civilization Has Arrived. The scientists developed a terrible virus that which had the terrible goal to reduce the overpopulated earth in a half, but the virus mutated and only 1% of the human beings survived to the exposure, almost the 90% of the population died and the rest mutated on horrible forms.
In the middle of nowhere John and Sam are two of the survivors, their only weapon available is a bat and many balls. Surrounded by thousands of these mutated human zombies their only hope is resist.

Like 2010 in much of France, Alsace saw an excellent harvest that produced wines with great concentration and focus, balanced by beautiful acidity and freshness.
The previous winter was cold and long, extending into early March. Bud break was pushed back, and a hard freeze caused damage to some vines. April remained cool but temperatures rose in May allowing the vines to progress. Flowering was late nonetheless, and a swift temperature drop during this crucial period caused further crop loss from millerandage and coulure.
The erratic weather continued into June, which saw a major hot, dry spell during its last week. July was hot, with periods of storms and rain. August was back to wet and cold, and fighting off disease became critical due to the spread of oidium and mildew. At this point in the season the grapes were behind in the ripening cycle. This turned out to be a boon, however, as the grapes felt less impact from potentially damaging rainstorms.
Finally, at the end of August the weather improved, and remained consistent through October. Temperatures slowly tapered off and drying, cool north winds allowed a long hang-time for the grapes, helping to keep sugar and acid in balance.
The resulting wines are focused and intense, with good ripe fruit and brilliant acidity and should have the structure and depth to age well. A classic vintage with many superb wines, but unfortunately a small crop and one that may have some variation given the uneven and crazy weather during the season.

Before I continue I want to give my friend Ruth Alegria a big shout out. She has been a guide, inspiration and friend to me for the past 3 or 4 months. Even though she is not Mexican, her passion for Mexico and its food is inspirational. You can read more about her on this post and visit her blog here. If you are interested in a tour or cooking class in Mexico City, please visit her website. I promise you will love it!
Mexican moles come in a great variety of flavors and colors. Almost every region of the country has at least one variety of mole. Moles from Puebla, Oaxaca and San Pedro Actocpan in southern Mexico City are particular popular because of their variety in flavors. One of my favorite moles is pipian. Pipian is a kind of mole that uses pepitas (pumpkin seeds) as thickener. These moles have a very distinctive nutty and earthy flavor.
I mentioned a couple of posts ago that JJ Goode and his friend Matt cooked at Ruth's kitchen when they were visiting Mexico and one of the dishes they prepared was Red Pipian. Even though I had tasted this pipian before. I had never participated in the preparation before. It turned out so delicious that it made my first pipian (more than two years ago) look like a bad amateur attempt. But that's OK, this is the reason I came to Mexico. To learn the secrets and techniques of the amazing Mexican cuisine.
Here's the recipe to this pipian courtesy of the Princeton Cooking School in Mexico, Ruth's cooking school.
- •1 kg (2 lbs) veal, diced
- •200 gr (7 oz) chile ancho, seeded and deveined
- •200 gr (7 oz) chile guajillo, seeded and deveined
- •1/2 white onion
- •2 garlic cloves
- •1/2 kg (1 lb) chilacayote (Perennial Squash)
- •1/4 kg (1/2 lb) fresh fava bean
- •200 gr (7 oz) green pumpkin seed, peeled
- •50 gr (1.75 oz) epazote
- •1 bolillo or ½ cup dry bread
- •1.5 lt chicken stock
- •1/2 cup lard
- •pimienta gorda (pimienta de Tabasco or allspice)
- •salt and white pepper to taste
- Optional garnishes:
- •Papas cambray (small baby potatoes)
- •Cebolla cambray(similar to scallions but larger in size and flavor)
- Disinfect all vegetables.
- Heat a large sauce pan with lard (reserve 2 TBSP to sear veal) and fry the chiles. Remove and continue with the onion, garlic, green pumpkin seed, sesame seed and all spice. Add the bread and return the chiles to the pan. Let fry for about 5 minutes or until golden.
- Add chicken stock and epazote. Let simmer until all ingredients have softened and the bread dissolved into the stock, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Blend all the ingredients in batches (you can strain for a velvety consistency or leave as is) Return to the pan and let simmer.
- Cook the chilacayotes and fava beans separately in salted water. Shock and reserve.
- With reserved lard brown the cubes of veal and add to the sauce. Let simmer together for at least 15 minutes.
- Add teh chilacayote and fava beans. Season the sauce with salt and white pepper.
- Optionally, simmer potatoes and scallions in a small amount of water with coarse salt. Add butter after straining and let glaze in pan. Serve on top of the pipian.
- Ruth uses clay pots to cook. This gives the food a more earthy flavor.
- You can add more chicken stock if the sauce is too thick.
- You can use any other type of meat like chicken or pork. But the veal here was perfect for the pipian.
¡Buen provecho!

Why Do Mice Love to Bite Their Way Into Your House?
Some people think mice are cute, while others think they are dirty and disgusting, or even terrifying. No matter what camp you fall into, you might like to know a little bit more about just how these diminutive creatures always seem to find a way inside your house.
Teeth that keep on growing
Yes, mice love to gnaw on things, no matter if those things are edible or not. Gnawing helps these rodents create spaces to squeeze through, and it keeps their teeth in check. Since mice teeth never stop growing, they need to file them down by chewing on hard surfaces, in order to maintain a manageable tooth length.
Soft in the head
Mice have incredibly soft skulls, which means their craniums can be squashed down in size, while leaving their brains (we're not talking about little Einsteins here) relatively intact. Mice have very malleable bodies, as well, which lets them fit through very tiny holes and spaces.
Squeezing through a ballpoint pen-sized hole
The pliability of their bodies allows the little critters to push their way through ballpoint pen-sized holes. That's about 6mm in diameter. A mouse that wants to find a way into your kitchen because it's hungry is going to get in no matter how much sealing caulk you smother across the baseboards.
Mice control
There really is no stopping these squishy, miniature Houdinis from getting into your home. If you have a deathly fear of them, your best bet is to run a tidy household, never leave food out or uncovered, and perhaps invest in a few aggressive and mouse-crazed cats. If that fails, you can always set up some mouse traps, or call in a professional exterminator to finish the job.

What's bugging your lawn?
It looked great last spring
Your lawn area looked great last spring. It looked pretty good going into summer. Then all of a sudden, in August or early September, spots started appearing. Some areas looked like they were drying out quicker. These patches may have started small with the grass looking pale or discolored before it dried. These patches got bigger and took over more of the lawn. As the spots got bigger, those areas had a spongy feel on the feet. If you reached down and tugged on the grass, it pulled up like freshly cut sod.
If this sounds like what you observed on your lawn, chances are you had grub damage. Grubs feed on the grass roots. If there are enough grubs, they cut off the roots similar to a sod cutters' action. When the roots are severed, the top dries out quickly and the sod is easily lifted up.

Book of Lamentations [3.49]
in Har Tsion in Jerusalem
Let not the earth cover up their blood!
* The word is Shekhina , which usually refers to the feminine aspect of God. Trans. Back
AKEYDA *by Mordechai Bartana
And father approaches me: Oh, my son! Oh, my son!
And I reply: Here I am. But who calls? Your voice is so distant.
And my father says: There's a scream in my heart,
But I don't know how to express it. We both are being led to the slaughter.
But who will be sacrificed I don't know.
And I reply: There is fire in my blood. I am ready to be sacrificed.
Who will be the scapegoat for the great sin?
For so many generations I have been walking and wandering,
And I don't hear G-d's voice, and I don't see [any sign].
My father, oh my father! My fear is too great to bear.
We will sacrifice the offering, but G-d's hand is not there to receive it.
And my father said: The depths of your questions sadden my soul.
The crescent moon over our heads will accept the offering.
But there is an ancient echo in me that shines like a great sun.
G-d will appear over the offering
And I replied: My father, oh my father, forgive my stupidity.
Because suddenly I don't know which one is the child.
Who here is me and who is you?
Both lights and profound darkness are inside of me
And mixed together in my eyes are horizons and borders,
Today in tomorrow, the future in ancient times.
Here we are. Both led under the crescent moon
Like sheep to the slaughter.
Why only us? Why does He always choose us?
And my father said: Nights and days I prayed over you,
That you would outgrow me and we would be able to walk together.
My son, only the offering of the best and the first.
G-d Himself will choose the sacrifice in the dark night.
And I replied: My father! Here I am, and I will go, but my soul is low,
Because I still don't understand why this is and what is the reason.
And my father bent down to me and his tears fell both on my hand and on his hands--
And together we will go.

* The Path of the Righteous and The Duties of the Heart are titles of books which emphasize the beliefs of the Musar Movement. Trans. Back

Former Texans coach Gary Kubiak interviewed for the Detroit Lions head coaching position Tuesday.
Tim Twentyman, from the Lions' official website, confirmed the news.
Kubiak was spotted at the Detroit airport earlier Tuesday. He posed for this photo at the Detroit airport with Texans fans Detleft Becker and Danielle Koshak.
Kubiak was fired after the Texans' 2-11 start to their disastrous 2-14 season. He was also reported to be a candidate for the Buccaneers coaching job before Tampa Bay hired Lovie Smith to fill the position.
Penn State's Bill O'Brien was hired to take over for Kubiak.

This week there is no doubt you will hear about countless new performance cars hitting the market. Even a few you might be able to fit into your own budget. One such car, is the fifth generation Porsche 911 GT3 making its world debut at the 83rd annual Geneva Motor Show.
With an impressive lap time on the Nürburgring Nordschleife of under 7:30 minutes, the 2014 911 GT3 benefits from a new engine, transmission, body and chassis. The car now sprints from zero to 60mph in 3.3s on its way to a top track speed of 195mph.
The 911 GT3 features the first active rear-wheel steering in a production Porsche, as well as optional full LED headlights. The new GT3 brings to everyday driving many of the properties of a sports car developed on the track, and preserves the highly emotional fun factor.
The powertrain of the new 911 GT3 is composed of a 3.8-liter boxer engine yielding 475hp (125hp/liter) featuring a 9,000rpm redline and a specially developed Porsche dual-clutch transmission (PDK) which drives the rear wheels. The six-cylinder engine is based on the same engine as the 911 Carrera S, although they share only a few common parts. All other components, particularly the crankshaft and valve gear, were specially adapted or designed for the GT3. For instance, Porsche designed titanium connecting rods and forged pistons for this engine.
The Porsche dual-clutch transmission in this application has been specially developed for the 911 GT3: the characteristics are based directly on a sequential gearbox from racing, thereby providing further performance and dynamic advantages to the driver. Highlights include shorter gear ratios with closer spacing, even faster shifting, and shift paddles with shorter travel and increased tactile feedback, which now allow the driver to place the PDK in neutral simply by pulling on both paddles at the same time.
For the first time, Porsche is employing active rear wheel steering to achieve even higher steering precision and improved lateral dynamics. Depending on the speed, the rear wheels steer in the same or opposite direction of the front wheels, improving stability and agility. Other new features that improve driving dynamics are an electronically controlled, fully variable rear differential lock and dynamic engine mounts. Contact with the road is made by new 20-inch, forged alloy wheels with center-locking hubs in place of conventional wheel bolts.
The 2014 911 GT3 will go on sale in the United States late in 2013 and will be priced from $130,400, not including a $950 destination charge.

Awww…there's nothing cuter than a little, big eared mouse with a sword. The Tale of Despereaux stars a little mouse named, Despereaux.

Listening to Ravens fans whine on the airwaves lately about the team's wide receiver situation has been particularly irksome. Never is it worse, though, than when a caller (usually led by a particular noodle-haired sports talk show host in town) practically begs Ozzie Newsome & Co. to sell the farm and go get Denver Broncos WR Brandon Marshall.
Take a look at this video, of Marshall making a mockery of practice this week, and reevaluate your stances please,
Anita those of you who think the NFL works like fantasy football.
That's what you want on your team?
When it comes to Brandon Marshall, just say no.

City Hall
Chose your superlatives and apply them all to the Philadelphia City Hall - biggest, best, most, tallest - they all apply. It is the largest municipal building in the US. It was the first non-religious building to be called the tallest in the world. It is the tallest un-reinforced masonry building in the US and second tallest in the world. It has more statues on it than any other building in the US. At 37-feet tall and weighing 26 tons it has the largest statue ever placed on the top of a building. The bronze statue of William Penn at the top is so big it sat on the ground for more than a year because no one could figure out how to get it up there.
With its groupings of paired columns and mansard roof it is built in the Second Empire style. It took so long to build (started in 1870 and completed in 1901) that by the time it was finished that style was no longer in style. The exterior is granite, marble, and sandstone. The supports under the main tower are blocks of granite 22-feet thick and set close to 50-feet underground to reach bedrock. Nearly 90,000,000 hand made bricks were used in the construction. The interior is equally as impressive. At times they used aluminum instead of gold because at that time aluminum was more valuable.
For more than 8 decades a "gentleman's agreement" kept it the tallest building in Philadelphia. By the 1980s the building had fallen on hard times. Much of the cast iron was orange with rust. When it was built, Philadelphia was the heart of the industrial revolution and all of those factories that fueled the city's progress and fortune covered the building with soot and grime. The city planned to demolish it until they got the bill for demolition. As it turned out, it would cost less to restore it than it would to demolish it. Thank God for fiscal responsibility.
My hotel was only a block away from City Hall and so on day 2 I went over to see about taking a tour. I got there 20 minutes before the tour started and at that point I was the only person who had signed up. Most just sign up for the 15 minute trip up to the observation deck at the top of the tower. I almost backed out. I thought it would be odd to be lead around the building with my own personal tour guide. As I was standing there talking to the guide about getting my money back for my already paid ticket a woman walked up and asked about the tour. For the next 2 and a half hours the 3 of us crawled all over the building. It was spectacular.
Just ignore that building on the left for now.
There are 4 entrances to the building. Each one is a portal which leads to an inner chamber filled with columns and carvings. Each entrance was either for a branch of the government or for a ceremonial entrance. There are four, free standing granite spiral stair cases at each corner of the building.
The carved figure you see is the architect. He obviously thought very highly of himself.
The first stop was the Mayor's reception room. They were getting ready for a press conference so we had very little time in this room. On the walls are portraits of past mayors.
The honorable Mayor Nutter and Congressman Chaka Fattah showed and we had to leave.
The next two rooms were originally supposed to be one tall room with a soaring 95-foot high ceiling. This was the ceremonial entrance for visiting dignitaries and the like. This room was a part of the tower. As the tower got taller though, the weight of it began to crack the walls. They added a floor in the middle to give the tower more structure. They were left with 2 rooms that have paltry 45-foot ceilings. The room with the domed ceiling was the original ceiling.
The statue of George Washington used to sit in front of Independence Hall
Because this is a working city hall many of the grand old rooms have now been cut up in to cube farms. Still, there is no way to hide the old grandeur. When I got back to work I asked that my work area be redecorated with gilded, hand carved mahogany just like in Philadelphia. I was immediately escorted from the building by security. I assume they wanted me out so the work could begin as soon as possible. I'll just hang out at home and wait for the call that the work has been completed.
The City Council Chambers. What can I say. For the first time in my life I wanted to be a politician. It is all white Alabama marble, Mexican onyx, mosaic tile, and carved wood.
This is the finest cast iron I have ever seen in my life. The detail is amazing.
The wooden box at the back is the press box
The ceilings and walls of the upper halls were covered with murals above a marble dado. The murals were painted over. There has been some restoration (go up to the shot of Mayor Nutter walking in to the press conference), and in some places you can see parts of the murals behind chipping paint. Lower halls got majolica tile or pink granite dado and tiled barrel vaulted ceilings. The tiled barrel vaulted ceilings (not shown) are still there, but mostly hidden behind modern drop ceilings.
The view from the top could have been better. It rained only one morning that I was in Philadelphia and that was the morning I went up in the tower. Still a great experience.
That is the Delaware river with Camden, New Jersey in the distance. The PSFS Building, now Loews Hotel, was the first building in the US designed in the International Style. It looks like 1960s, but it was built in 1932. It is on the National Register of Historic Places.
The observation deck is just below the statue of William Penn

This summer educational resource publishers, providers of curriculum and assessment management systems and, of course teachers, are scrambling to unpack, understand, and integrate the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) in preparation for the coming school year. Are you ready?
The NGSS are an outgrowth of the Framework for K-12 Science Education that envisions 21st century science education in light of new science knowledge, technological advances, the need for in-depth scientific literacy and for high school graduates who are prepared to pursue scientific careers.
Grade-level standards are developed around Disciplinary Core Ideas for each area of scientific study. For example, within Earth Systems Science (ESS) is this Core Idea: ESS1.C: The History of Planet Earth– Local, regional, and global patterns of rock formations reveal changes over time due to earth forces, such as earthquakes. The presence and location of certain fossil types indicate the order in which rock layers were formed.
If you are a 4th grade teacher, your students are expected to be able to do the following by the end of the year: 4-ESS1-1. Identify evidence from patterns in rock formations and fossils in rock layers for changes in a landscape over time to support an explanation for changes in a landscape over time.
Before you mount a search for your college geology textbook, give yourself an hour with Earth and Space Science, session 2, "Every Rock Tells a Story." As you watch the video, join Dr. Carol de Wet to look at rock pinnacles in southern Pennsylvania. Observe characteristics that tell the story of how the rocks were formed and what they have to say about the history of the earth. In the process, learn about the myriad concepts that are packed into one little two-sentence standard.
In addition, observe students doing some rigorous thinking about how rocks are formed and how fossils are created. One of the best aspects of these segments is the way they illustrate how students use prior knowledge, and sometimes misconceptions, to formulate theories. A recent study conducted by researchers at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics revealed that teachers who are aware of students' misconceptions about scientific concepts have students who perform better on measures of success. A misconception revealed creates a highly teachable moment. The children's ideas pointed out in session 2 will inspire ideas to help your students read the rocks around them and to be ready for the next step: ESS2.B: Plate Tectonics and Large-Scale System Interactions .
Enhancing your scientific understanding in areas that are, um, a little rocky for you, is a sound investment in student success. Carbon into diamonds. Go for it!

TRAINING: I train every morning doing strength and conditioning for two hours - usually 9-11. Then I have a break until 2pm Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Then I go to Muay Thai, kickboxing or wrestling. Tuesday and Thursday I do jitz from 6:30 to 8:30.
When and why did you start training for fighting? I started training at the age of 19. I always wanted to fight but my parents never let me. In my senior yet I broke my back snowboarding and was rehabbing my back. Then I joined fighting to become more active.
What ranks and titles have you held? As an amateur I was 7-1 with five titles - three at 135lbs, one at 130lb and one at 125lb 0 and ranked number one in the US. Before TUF as a pro I was 3-3 and I hold the world bantamweight/Hawaiian islands champion of Destiny MMA.

I've done mocks like these in the past but I usually do them a couple weeks before the draft. I got bored today so I decided to start now and update with newer mocks throughout the weeks leading up to the draft. Without further ado here we go:
2nd round (56th Overall): Khaseem Green, OLB, Rutgers
Scouting Report: http://www.battleredblog.com/2013/1/23/ ... eem-greene
Highlight Video:
3rd round (87th Overall): Gavin Escobar, TE, San Diego State
Scouting Report: http://www.nfl.com/draft/2013/profiles/ ... id=2540211
My own report: I'm a freshman at San Diego State University and attended quite a few football games. He has really great size standing 6'6" and weighing 254lbs. I never really paid attention to his blocking when I attended the games but I've heard mixed reviews from others who have scouted him. What I do know is that everyone agrees he is an amazing pass catcher and was the best receiver on the SDSU team. He can grab the ball out of the air with his hands and bring it down all while making it look easy. He isn't the fastest but he tries his best at getting YAC (He can be shifty at times, look at the 2012 highlight vid at 2:05). He's deadly in the red-zone with his frame and amazing pass-catching ability. Before the combine I believe he was locked at a 2nd round pick but after his combine I think he drops to the 3rd.
Highlight Video (I know the music doesn't sound like typical highlight vid music but they were made by his sister I believe so keep that in mind):
Thought I'd throw this in there too, he has talent off the field as well:
4th round (120th overall): Leon McFadden, CB, San Diego State
(Yeah I know, I probably sound like a SDSU-homer now but bear with me, I wanted to give us Tyrann Matheiu here but I don't think he'd fall this far, Leon is a beast as well)
Scouting Report: http://www.milehighreport.com/2013/2/28 ... ng-profile < I recommend you read that
Highlight Video (He is the corner that plays in Sherman's spot, #2):
Hey who's that coach at 1:20 who seems really interested in him?
5th round (131st overall): Reid Fragel, OT, Ohio State
Scouting Report: http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/rei ... id=2539651
Highlight Video:
5th round (151st overall): Matt Scott, QB, Arizona
Scouting Report: http://www.nfl.com/draft/2013/profiles/ ... id=2539647

6th round (184th overall): Marquess Wilson, WR, Washington State

Highlight Video:
7th round (198th overall): Cierre Wood, RB, Notre Dame
Scouting Report: http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/cie ... id=2540209
Highlight Video:
7th round (215th overall): Caleb Sturgis, K, Florida
