"Great narration, interesting material"
Be advised that this approaches seduction from both a historical perspective, a psychological perspective, and a fair bit of "how to". Though some of the recommendations are questionable, the narrator's style is capitvating and elevates the material. Those looking for a "step-by-step" guide to seduction would do better buying another audiobook. Those looking for a relaxing, informative, and interesting listening experience have found the right book.
"Slimy, Yet Satisfying"
The worms and grubs of interpersonal attraction and seduction can be found here. I alternatively cringed, laughed, and took voluminuous notes as I listened. Put your ethics in neutral, listen, and, for God's sake, use only the "good side" of the force! This is an fascinating listen.
"All parents of daughters and daughters should read"
If you're a parent of a daughter, or a woman who's dating, this book will piss you off. But read the book and use it to learn the manipulation techniques that are potentially used against you. Forewarned is forearmed. Knowledge is power.
"Taken Loosely"
This book was really insightful and got me to think about the games that are played in love relationships. I took this book from a tongue and cheek perspective, and found it thought provoking to get you to think about the things you fall for in other people and the things that you do to get others to fall for you. Others were offended by the language in the book, as he often states "victim" etc., I interpreted it as the author poking fun at the idea of seducing people if that really is your intent, but ultimately we all have free will. If you tend to fall head over heels in love, too fast and too quickly, this book can be helpful to you- guilty as charged- as it helped me realize that I often put my cards on the table and fall for people that often play games with me.
This book has made me more aware of people, their intentions, and the games that they often play. I think its useful for you if you typically get walked on by other people, if you tend to be a people pleaser, it makes you more aware of the different personality/seduction types, and helps you to avoid falling into a never ending back and forth love game with someone.
If you're looking here for the "Magic book" that will teach you how to be attractive to the opposite sex then you have found it, or at least one of them (there are many more) BUT BE WARNED! this book is not for those with a strong amount of morals or who think that just by being nice you'll be fine. This book follows the path of the SEDUCER not the knight in shining armor who is always the good guy. this book is about manipulating your situation to your advantage, and it takes a completely neutral stand on the devious tricks of a seduction. if you do not feel you are comfortable with manipulating people for personal gain then do not get this book.
"Morally debase but interesting"
Yes as the others have said this book is completely lacking in moral principles but we're talking seduction here, what did you expect?
While I don't agree with many of his ideas I found his stories compelling and his insights into human nature profound.
It was educational and entertaining. Keep your morality in perspective and just appreciate it for what it is.
"The best book I purchased here"
Great book. Lots of phsychology on sexes and their relationship. Explains pretty good why nice guys finish last. While it would be too much for me personally to use ALL rules and instructions in this book, but I can definitely use many of them. Also it definately helped me understand the other people's actions and my reaction to them much better. I would say the book is much more useful for guys rather than women. Guys, read it.
"Great and Interesting Read (Listen)"
Wow, This is my first review out of many titles listened to. That's how much I really enjoyed this book. Very well researched and layed out. I don't know how anyone can feel "slimy". When you listen you should not see this book as only instructional, but as a historical and psychological overview of how seduction has evolved and played out throughout the centuries of human existence. Well worth the listen. You will enjoy it.
"Somewhat Monotonous"
The tone of the voice of the narrator is like he is about to tell a great secret, this tone he maintains throughout the whole book, this makes the books sound monotonous. Even though points are well illustrated, they do not stick in your mind, nor are interesting.
"Dark, I loved it!"
I consider myself a nice guy, but I must say I loved this audio. It brings to light some things that may have been used on you or even that you may have used on someone and not even of realized it. I don't regret getting the audio. Thanks.

The Magic Kingdom does it. When the parking is taken, the lines are too long and the park is saturated, they shut it down.
Why couldn't we do that at Tybee? It may be a public beach, but when there are no parking spaces left, the lines are long and the island is saturated, we're crazy to let people keep coming.
I'm not talking just about Orange Crush; I'm talking about any holiday or heavy summer-visitor day.
There are a limited number of parking spots on Tybee. If we allow more cars than there are spots, where do they go? They are stopped on the roads, not able to really go anywhere, so we become a big parking lot.
Or they just park anywhere. I had two friends who said they had to watch their driveways because several cars just came in and parked. One put chairs up to keep people from parking, but they moved them and parked anyway. And many of the stopped cars simply opened their trunks and partied right there on the street. I personally saw this happen.
Why not put a counter and a police officer just before the Bull River Bridge?
When he or she has counted the cars coming onto Tybee equal to the number of spots available, and there are no parking spaces left, make people turn around.
Would it be illegal to close the beach? I don't know, but it can't be any more illegal than having unsafe conditions, rampant petty crime, overrun lots and too much trash.
Tybee Island
Sad to see intolerance on National Day of Prayer
As I read the front page article on The National Day of Prayer in the May 3 edition of your newspaper, I could only feel an incredible sadness.
Pastor Gene Roberts, the event organizer, was quoted as saying that remarks made weren't meant to be "a slam against anybody; it was really a demonstration of God's love."
So, Reverend Terry Johnson's comment that homosexuality (and here one must infer, homosexuals) is an abomination is a "demonstration of God's love"? How can we purport to be a Christian society when we pick and choose who we accept?
As I stated earlier, it saddens me that certain groups of people set themselves up as the only holders of the truth.
Whether one is a follower of Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed or even one who struggles with the whole concept of belief and organized religion, is it not better to "love one another" than to smugly assert that only the righteous few know the "absolute truth" to quote another attendee at the prayer service?
How to save money on private consultants
After reading article after article about on going issues affecting the city and county, from new developments to zoning ordinances, I wonder: Why doesn't someone pick up the phone or send an e-mail asking for a copy of other municipalities' plans on a particular topic (just fill in the blank).
Rather than hiring a myriad of consultants and holding countless hours of community input meetings, why not beg, borrow or steal someone else's well thought-out plan and use that or combination of plans. For example, on food trucks, trolleys, judicial communications or any other issues?
Take the best ideas out of each plan that would apply to our local situation and make the "pitch" to the entities that be.
Somebody has already built it and improved upon it. Just capitalize on their hard work. What's wrong with that?
Border agents need computers that work
I am referencing Alicia A. Caldwell's Associated Press article, "U.S. orders new visa reviews for students," which you published May 4.
The end of paragraph two starts: "A student from Kazakhstan accused of hiding evidence for one of the Boston bombing suspects was allowed to return to the U.S. in January without a valid student visa."
It continues in paragraph three: "The student visa for Azamat Tazhayakov had been terminated when he arrived in New York Jan 20. But the border agent in the airport did not have access to the information in the Homeland Security Department's Student and Exchange Visitor Information System."
How can a border agent without complete access to the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System make the valid and correct decision on students and exchange visitors that are required to have a valid visa?
The last paragraph explains a lot and calls for public outcry as Homeland Security wastes money on computer systems that do not stop illegal immigrants from entering the country at will when they have another on site that would solve the problem. In addition Homeland Security is wasting money by requiring the original agent, without sufficient information, to refer the person and the case to a second officer, I presume of high rank and pay.
Why do they have two people doing the work of one and the first system inadequate to refer "illegal entrants" to a second officer? Homeland Security leaves the first officer, if he is wrong, open to disciplinary action, or worse, to disciplining because of the "possibility" of profiling.
Sports group wrongly snubs Lou Brissie again
Having submitted a request for consideration, I find it very sad that the appropriate folks on the Greater Savannah Athletic Hall of Fame failed once again to recognize Leland (Lou) Brissie in some permanent way.
Anyone who is familiar with the baseball history of Savannah will recognize his significant accomplishments while leading his 1947 Savannah Indians team to a league championship. He set pitching records that still stand today.
He is also a true American hero, having overcome severe wounds in World War II to accomplish these feats. I understand their "rules" for being a native Savannahian, or something similar, but I'm sure there is some way to provide the recognition this man deserves.
Although a native and current resident of South Carolina, he was recently awarded the National Football Foundation (UGA chapter) Distinguished American Award.
He is also a member of the South Carolina Sports Hall of Fame. His number 3 has been retired by the Savannah Sand Gnats. It's past time for the GSAHOF stepped up to the plate.

Roy Hodgson's first Wembley match as England manager ended with a 1-0 win after a first-half chip from Danny Welbeck was enough to give his side the victory.
The Manchester United striker was handed an opportunity by Hodgson to stake a claim for a starting berth against France, and the pacy youngster took it with both hands. A deft dink in the 36th minute was enough to give the Three Lions the victory, as Belgium enjoyed plenty of possession without ever really threatening.
Hodgson's side followed up last weekend's 1-0 win over Norway with a similarly solid display, and the England manager will be pleased to have two victories in hand before he sets off for Ukraine and Poland.
The England boss opted for a stronger starting 11 this week, as the Belgians were expected to provide a much sterner test than the Norwegians last Saturday. And for much of the first half Belgium did dominate, controlling possession around the England box without ever demonstrating a cutting edge.
Chelsea fans got a first look at Eden Hazard, and although he showed flashes of class, the two-time Ligue 1 Player of the Year was largely kept in check by a dogged England defence. Hodgson may have a slight concern over Gary Cahill, who was forced off after a nasty collision with Joe Hart – facilitated by a snide shove from Dries Mertens – while John Terry was also removed in the second half as precautions.
Steven Gerrard and Scott Parker demonstrated their effectiveness in breaking up attacks, and it was Gerrard who instigated the winning goal. The Liverpool and England skipper robbing an uncharacteristically sloppy Moussa Dembele before offloading to Ashley Young.
The England forward then slipped a measured slide-rule pass into the path of his strike partner before Welbeck lifted the ball over an onrushing Simon Mignolet.
There were chances in the second half for substitute Jermaine Defoe, who hit the post and the side-netting in a lively 30-minute cameo, and the match was played in a competitive spirit despite the disruption caused by the numerous changes.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain started on the left, and had England's best early chance but the winger miscued his shot wide. The Arsenal youngster again showed his impressive temperament, and wasn't afraid to go looking for the ball in central positions. Hodgson now faces a difficult decision over whether to start with Chamberlain against France, or opt for the experience of Stewart Downing.
As the clocked ticked down, Belgium grew into the game and had a couple of late chances, but Joe Hart was rarely troubled. A fierce strike from Gillet rattled the England keeper's post, but Hodgson will be pleased with his side's organisation and tenacity in the tackle.
Wayne Rooney also featured in the final 20 minutes, and looked sharp despite three weeks out. But the night belonged to Danny Welbeck, and the United youngster may have done enough to edge in front of Andy Carroll in the battle for the starting place against France.
It's a problem Hogdson will be pleased to have, but it doesn't disguise the fact that England's attacking thrust often looked lethargic and jaded in comparison to the neat-link up from the Belgians.
Hodgson's team face a tougher test on June 11 against France, but after two victories and two clean sheets they will at least prove difficult to break down in Donetsk.

Preview Thurles 30th Nov
A selection of familiar faces and smart prospects do battle in the Rock Of Cashel Hurdle at Thurles on Friday.
Willie Mullins is responsible for two of the 11 runners, with both Sweet My Lord and Bishopsfurze reverting from fences - the latter returns after an absence that stretches back to the Punchestown Festival in May.
Son Amix, Dancing Tornado and Becauseicouldntsee could also be using this as a stepping stone to targets over the larger obstacles, whereas Folsom Blue is only a five-year-old and still has plenty to offer at this discipline, although he will need to leave a lacklustre Naas return some way behind.
The Noel Meade-trained Ally Cascade was less than a length behind subsequent Grade Three winner Jezki on his first try at timber and that sets a high standard in the opening Cahir Maiden Hurdle at 12.35.
He bumps into an interesting recruit from the Mullins team in the shape of unbeaten three-time winner Urano, and the champion trainer takes the wraps off another French import, with Touch The Eden reappearing from 20 months on the sidelines in the Munster (C & G) Maiden Hurdle.
Annie Power arrived at the same County Carlow yard via a slightly different route - she won two bumpers for Jim Bolger before making an impressive start for Mullins at Listowel - and she nows goes jumping in the Thurles Mares Maiden Hurdle.
Her stable companion Sizing Sahara didn't do quite so well in that sphere, but he took in hot contests at Punchestown and has his sights lowered for the Liscahill INH Flat Race.
Dont Tell Pa goes for a four-timer against unexposed rivals Call Rog and Popmurphy in the Horse & Jockey Handicap Hurdle, while recent Clonmel runner-up Short Grass attempts to confirm that superiority over fourth-placed World Citizen in the Martinstown Opportunity Handicap Hurdle.

Director-General inaugurates expansion of Budapest facilities
8 October 2013, Budapest, Hungary - On Tuesday, 8 October in Hungary's capital, Director-General Graziano da Silva together with Hungary's Minister of Rural Development inaugurated the expansion of FAO premises during the fifth anniversary celebration of the FAO Regional Office for Europe and Central Asia (REU) and the Shared Services Centre (SSC).
This much needed expansion of facilities is being made possible by the generosity of the Hungarian Government and the Ministry of Rural Development.
REU handles all of FAO's programmatic work for Europe and Central Asia while the SSC is part of the Corporate Services, Human Resources and Finance Department (CS) and is responsible for providing a centralized support function to FAO offices and their employees. Specifically, the SSC handles administrative transactional processes including user support, individual HR servicing, staff and non-staff recruitment, asset management, vendor management, accounts payable, and travel operations. HR and travel operations for Latin American & Caribbean and the Asia & Pacific Regions, however, are provided by two smaller administrative hubs located in Santiago and Bangkok, respectively.
Over the past five years the SSC has gradually increased in capacity, with the off-shoring, consolidation, and streamlining of many administrative tasks to Budapest. During this time, the number of people employed at the SSC, the majority of whom are Hungarian nationals, has increased resulting in the need for additional space.
"The presence of specialized UN bodies in Hungary is extremely important to us", said Minister Sándor Fazekas from Hungary's Ministry of Rural Development at the press conference held to mark the anniversary and expansion of facilities. The Minister also highlighted that Hungary had received valuable support from FAO as a beneficiary country before becoming a donor country upon joining the EU.
The Director-General reminded the press that cooperation between Hungary and FAO had a history going back to 1996, when the first FAO office opened in the capital. He also emphasized Hungary's continued support of FAO and to the achievement of the Organization's objectives.
Prior to the press conference, the Director-General and Minister Fazekas held bilateral talks during which they discussed FAO and Hungary's deep rooted collaboration and partnership, and the strategic direction of the Organization guided by FAO's new Strategic Framework.

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Surgery on President Enrique Pena Nieto to remove a thyroid nodule Wednesday was successful and went exactly as planned, his staff and surgeon said.
The nodule showed no signs of malignancy, said his surgeon, Brig. Gen. Juan Felipe Sanchez.
"The results are very good," Sanchez told reporters in a news conference after the surgery.
Pena Nieto, 47, was awake and recovering in his room in the Central Military Hospital after the procedure that took less than two hours, said Chief-of-Staff Aurelio Nuno.
He will spend two days in the hospital and two more of recovery, holding private work meetings. He will return to his full schedule next week.
"He's very happy," Nuno said, adding that his wife, Angelica Rivera, and children were with him in the hospital.
No one was designated to act in his place during that time. Mexico's Constitution says nothing about such brief periods of incapacity.
Thyroid nodules are common in the general population and not considered a serious medical condition, said Dr. Oded Tempa, an endocrinologist at Mexico City's ABC Hospital.
If they protrude or can be felt, they need to be tested for malignancy, he said.
A Pena Nieto staff person said last week that a biopsy of the nodule proved benign.
Tempa said often surgery is the only way to know for sure.

2005 penn state
For Anyone Who's Ever Known a Penn State Fan
I forgot I promised Brian to do a post about this before I went ahead and launched it in Guess the Score. Anyway, meet my favorite shirt we've ever made except maybe the Space Emperor ones. Zoom? Zoom:
To relive the excuses hit the jump. To order the shirt hit the link. We're going to preorder a bunch of these for people who'd like them in time for the game.
Unverified Voracity Tears Down Their Goalposts
Woody-punchin'. WH provides the 1977 Game, which Michigan wins 14-6. Woody Hayes punches the camera at about 11 minutes:
Griese could be good at the TV. Not that Griese, the other Griese. I'm now holding out vague hopes that we could be getting something a little bit like NFL Matchup out of ESPN's Thursday night CFB preview show:
Griese, Mark May and Scott Van Pelt will preview the weekend's top four or five games.
"I'm going to use game film to illustrate what the keys are to look for," Griese said in a telephone interview."That will be fun for me. I like teaching people about the game."
Griese, who led Michigan to an unbeaten 1997 season and national championship and then played in the NFL, hopes to exercise his game knowledge from years and years of digesting game film as a player.
"That's where I like to live," Griese said of being a student of football film breakdown. "From people I talk to, there's an insatiable appetite to understand the nuances of football. I don't think there's any better way to understand the game than to watch it, but to watch it in a way that's informed. I want to give people things to watch for that maybe they wouldn't have known to look for, and look at it from an insider's perspective. I want them to watch and at the end hopefully say, 'Brian alerted me to this, and that's what happened in the game.'"
I know, I know, Mark May. You can't have everything. And we have seen technically-minded guys get swallowed up by the great dumbing-down over and over again. Let me have my candle in the wind.
Lacy still extant. Message board trolls started telling folks that Alabama starting tailback Eddie Lacy had torn his ACL and was done for the year, which doesn't appear to be true. He did give his ligaments the business at an inopportune time:
Alabama starting running back Eddie Lacy sprained his ankle and a knee in Saturday's practice.
"Not a serious thing. Probably going to be day to day but probably be a little bit slow next week," coach Nick Saban told AL.com. "I think in five to six days he'll probably be ready to go."
And I can't find anything on the internet that confirms anything about the ACL except for the one random guy in the comment section from the mgoboard post.
The sprain was two days ago, so his availability for Michigan is not in question unless a coach is lying about an injury, which is of course totally possible. If Lacy can't go—sigh—Dee Hart, the former Michigan commit, is supposed to take over top duties.
Beard update. Mealer's beard gathers a couple of quality quotes in a Daily article, one from Jeremy Gallon, who is apparently an aficionado:
"He has a face full of straight, perfect, beard hair," redshirt junior wide receiver Jeremy Gallon told ESPN. "You don't find that everywhere. I mean, look at it, you can't even put it into words. It's amazing."
And the second from Navy SEALs:
When Mealer and 21 other seniors took a trip to Coronado, Calif. for a three-day leadership trip in late May to train with Navy SEALs, he was told by the SEALs that he was sporting a true "Afghanistan beard."
"We take pride in that,"one of the SEALs told Mealer, he recalled.
But the SEAL left Mealer a stern warning: "If we find out the season comes along and you've shaved that, we're sending the team after you," he recounted laughing.
Also receiving six points is the Daily staffer who slapped this headline on the story:
Mealer, beard battle for starting spot on offensive line
ESPN gets four for…
Wolverines push follicle limits
…by the way. M-Live gets zero for "Michigan Wolverines linebacker Jake Ryan's hair is like Clay Matthews, now wants similar game." STEP YOUR BEAR/HAIR HEADLINE GAME UP, MLIVE WOOOOO
Probably the best thing to ever happen in Minnesota. Faint praise, sure, but BHGP's countdown of the top 25 Kirk Ferentz wins hits the top ten with that one time they clinched the Big Ten for the first time in twelve years and tore down the goalposts… at a road game:
There has not been a fan pwnage since that comes close.
This was dumb, but known. The guy who voted Michigan #1 defended himself by saying "I have never heard of this 'defensive line' thing you keep bringing up," but he'd announced he was voting M first a couple months ago, so, like… yeah. It even came with a picture of Ron Zook. I was going to write more about this but then I realized we were talking about a preseason poll and decided not to.
This is dumb, and was not known. Penn Live has various bits from the Posnanski book on Paterno, and one is relevant to your interests:
Following PSU's controversial 27-25 last-second loss at Michigan in 2005, the Lions' only blemish on an 11-1 season, Paterno was furious that officials put a few seconds back on the clock, possibly allowing Wolverines QB Chad Henne enough time to throw the game-winning TD pass on the final play. According to Posnanski, Paterno told friends he was considering pulling the Lions out of the Big Ten as a result.
Someone should check to see if there was frequently-used BWI handle that went dark six months ago or so.
The thing that makes this so ridiculous is that Paterno had literally just badgered the refs for two extra seconds on the previous drive—and got them. The one second hanging on the clock at the end of that game was just as much Paterno's as Lloyd's.
This is dumb, and also dumb. Former Spartan Jim Miller thinks there's an RGIII-Kirk Cousins quarterback controversy after Cousins tore up the second half of an NFL preseason game.
Random hype video. A little repetitive, but it serves its purpose:
What a good idea to bring this up again. Appalachian State's coach had a press conference just to talk about the Horror. What a good idea for the person who won that game. I'm just glad we'll never have to think about it aga—
/Ace shows Brian 2014 schedule
/Brian makes thirty-fifth appointment at Lacuna, Inc. since announcement of Horror II
Walking sans canes. Via Tom, here's Brock Mealer walking without assistance:
Etc.: Michigan alumni clubs sing the Victors worldwide. ESPN has a segment on Alabama linebacker play. Corn Nation joins the Big Ten division names boycott. Playoff details sound about like what you would think. UNC is going to go back and find out if their academic fraud is really as bad as all that. UMHoops recaps Mark Donnal's summer.
Unverified Voracity Kisses The Bicep
Macho man. Invaluable video guy Boyz in the Pahokee noticed something that's gone unremarked upon for five years. Note the score, time, and bicep kiss:
WHERE'S YOUR BICEP NOW? And how did the director of the game not cut back to Bicep Guy after Manningham went New Math on people?
Maize 'n' Brew just named the 2005 game Michigan's second-best win over Penn State in the series's short history. No dollars if you can guess the winner.
via the Shredder
Not sure if serious. So the news that a loose cannon walk-on is going to start tomorrow should be fairly crushing news to Penn State fans, but if I could be excited about Michigan's 2007 recruiting class they can be excited about Matt McGloin:
This might just be the kick in the pants to spark this offense. We will see. Good luck to the young man.
I'm so hyped up about this
This kid has gigantic balls!
I'm so glad we have a pure passer starting in this game, I think it gives us the best chance to win. Knewsome can't pass and Bolden would never WIN us this game. Now, granted McFarve might lose the game, but there is a chance he could WIN us the game.
I already used the image macro once today so I'll forgo it, but… seriously?
A later BSD posts breaks down his performance and even includes video. It could be chopped better—I'm spoiled by BitP's Every Snap videos—but the overall effect is to turn not sure if serious into definitely not serious in the comments, and should be reassuring to anyone fretting. Here's a UFR chart for McGloin:
I seem to be missing one of his throws but that won't change the overall picture much. The BSD predictionfest goes 4-2 to Michigan, FWIW.
If you change your colors to orange you can get them on the field faster. I suppose I have to say something about Chris L. Rucker's reinstatement. Anyone who didn't see this coming a mile away hasn't been paying attention. People haven't, though, because Dantonio says things like "I don't believe in superstition, I believe in God" and has a square jaw. But all it took was…
- Dantonio baldly lying about Roderick Jenrette's "family issues" that were in fact robberies,
- 20% of the team descending on a party to ignite a melee,
- Glenn Winston injuring a hockey player in that melee so badly he missed an entire season,
- Winston going to jail for five months,
- Dantonio reinstating him literally as soon as he got out of prison,
- 20% of the team, most prominently Jenrette and Winston, descending on a dorm room to ignite a melee,
- Dantonio reinstating most of the players who attended and promising zero tolerance, and
- Rucker being reinstated two seconds after he got out of jail…
…for the media to notice. But notice they have, with Rittenberg, Wojo, and even Mitch Albom(!) saying "hey, wait a minute." So, fine. As long as the correct win-at-all costs guy is being identified, fine. My whole thing here has not necessarily been to hammer Michigan State but to point out how little sense the media storyline about Rodriguez being some sort of renegade has made given the epic crime spree MSU has been on.
So now we know: Dantonio is just another boys-will-be-boys football coach, albeit one who wears his faith as a shield in a crassly cynical way. We can stop vilifying Rich Rodriguez for taking another job now, right?
Hockey weekend. The athletic department managed to schedule the home half of the Ferris State home and home at the exact same time Michigan plays Penn State, and then didn't move the game to Sunday, so 14 people will enjoy a matchup against the Bulldogs tomorrow. The away half is tonight; Yost Built has ten things about Ferris for you. The Bulldogs are 4-2 so far with a sweep of St. Lawrence, a split against Ohio State, and a split against Alabama-Huntsville. It doesn't seem like this is one of the occasional FSU teams that's a contender for a tourney bid.
More Ufer. Nice hair, everyone!
Also Frank Beckmann fluff.
Etc.: I can see why PSU folk think David Jones is their Drew Sharp. Soony Saad scores from distance… like own-half distance. Kenpom says he has "a special place in [his] heart" for MGoBlog because of its David Berri screed. Swoon! Michigan's apple tradition. A look at the future (and distant future) of the weakside linebacker position.
The Story, 2010: Step Forth
Part one of the season preview. Previous editions: 2008, 2009.
About a month ago the series of posts about the last decade of Michigan football struck upon the worst 11 plays the program suffered through since everyone started wearing those sunglasses with zeroes in them on New Year's Eve. The commenters were united in their opinion of these posts:
I was with them. But it seemed not only wrong but impossible to evaluate the last decade of Michigan football without enumerating the many offenses we have suffered. The story of the aughts was Roman decline. Skipping straight to Mario Manningham with one second on the clock would have been fiddling in the ruins.
It's about seven AM on the first game week of the 2010 season. Since I am a blogger and was an engineer before that, the last time I was up this early I was 19, in the second and last of the nepotistic internships I spent the first couple summers in college fiddling away at. My mom did the driving, so she set the schedule, and I spent a couple summers groggily pawing for an alarm clock with an "6" in the hour column and sulkily resenting how useless caffeine was for me. Mornings make me stabby.
But I'm up and the feed reader's here. This is what it provides around 7 AM on August 30th, 2010:
- Yost from the M-Zone unearths himself after two years of retirement to photoshop Jim Delany, David Brandon, Gene Smith, and Gordon Gee onto the horsemen of the apocalypse.
- UM Tailgate commemorates ten(!) years on the internet by reminiscing about old times when there were bowl streaks existed and no one wondered if the coach would get fired.
- Maize and Go Blue emerges from long hibernation itself to survey the state of the program, addressing the "constant ridicule" he is "bombarded with."
- In the aftermath of last night's Mad Men, GIF PARTY deploys this, in which we are Ken Cosgrove and Pete Campbell is the universe:
- The AP has another story on the one thing that seems to generate good press about the program: a Christmas Eve car crash in 2007 that killed people near and dear to Elliott Mealer, tore his rotator cuff, and paralyzed his brother.
It's been a ragged, weary summer, one that followed a frustrating collapse and a false but panicky NCAA apocalypse and the crater of '08 and I feel like I've been talking about how tired and frustrated and burned out I am for years now—the first sentence of last year's Story was "I'm tired"—which only makes the conversing about how it's tough out there for a Michigan fan more tedious and wearying and makes you want to go idle your time away on anything other than, say, the Ohio State UFR, missing for the second consecutive year. What felt like diagnosis and honesty last year now just feels like whining.
A brief survey of themes from last year's game columns:
I've got no real analysis of either team other than they're both worse than I thought. I'm burning out after two years of almost unrelenting misery, and looking forward to football season being over for the third straight year. I mean, when Michigan was down to Purdue in the second half, some fan ten or twenty rows behind me kept shouting "they've got no heart" over and over again as the guy in the row in front of me called for Rodriguez's firing. Having a conversation about Michigan football right now is trying to remember that episode of GI Joe where Destro finds a secret ninja manual in a volcano*** that allows him to kill people with precisely-applied touches: if you can just remember where the red dots are you can spare everyone a lot of pain.
A serious thematic analysis of the Wisconsin game is pointless. Michigan's defense is exactly as horrifying as it's been all year. Everyone wants to fight each other in the liveblog. When the MGoPosse assembled to record this week's podcast, Paul said "at least we didn't muff a punt" and I responded "they didn't punt." (It turns out they did punt once in the first half, and Junior Hemingway misjudged a short one, almost fumbling it.)
Love, that
November October
Is a time
Which I must
Put out of my mind
Oh, one fine day
Let it be soon
She won't be rich or beautiful
But she'll be walking your streets
In the clothes that she went out
And chose for herself
The Only Thing Corey Liuget And I Will Ever Have In Common
To paint with broad strokes, I probably don't have much in common with 6'3", 290 pound black guys from Miami who think it's a good idea to play for Ron Zook. Our worlds are unlikely to intersect at a Lil Wayne show or the Ann Arbor Film Festival. Cory Liuget has probably never thought to himself "that reminds me of a Morrissey song." Of late, I think that all the time.
But at around 6:30 on October 31st, 2009, we both felt like we had been punched in the dong. In Liuget's case, this is because he had been punched in the dong:
In my case, and probably in yours, you had not actually been punched in the dong unless you had decided at some point that going outside with your buddies and punching each other in the dongs was preferable to watching the metaphorical dong-punching that started when Roy Roundtree's knee hit the ground at the one yard line and has not, to my knowledge, stopped. If you managed to miss this play and its aftermath because you were outside getting punched in the dong, congratulations: this is the one and only time when your decision-making skills will ever be regarded above average. Punch yourself in the dong in celebration.
It is evidently my opinion that Morrissey sums up Michigan football of late better than anything else, and, well, yeah. Fey, petulant, wildly schizophrenic, once part of something great and now stuck in a self-loathing rut, extremely likely to fumble anything it's carrying if hit by a 250-pound linebacker, Michigan is Southpaw Grammar/Malajusted-era Morrissey to atomic precision.
But then there are the Mealers, who don't so much put the above rending of fishnet shirts in perspective as obliterate the petty concerns of everyone who pays into the fandom industry just so their boring lives can sometimes feel titanic. Elliott's mother from that AP article above:
"I questioned why I missed my opportunity to go to heaven," Shelly Mealer said Sunday night in a telephone interview as her voice cracked with emotion. "Still, I have my moments wondering if I can do this. But I know I'm here to take care of the boys because my husband always was the one who led us in his positive and optimistic way."
Elliott himself:
Elliott Mealer still feels a sense of regret and guilt for offering his girlfriend the outside seat in the back the car because she was feeling ill.
"It could've been prevented, I guess, and it could've been me," he said softly. "It's kind of a difficult thing to think about."
Elliott's brother Brock was told he'd never walk again and the "best he could hope for" was for the pain to go away in time.
Right now it's easy to be the world's most cynical man ("I don't always drink beer, but when I do I make sure to remind everyone it's made from rice and by Belgians"). This site's already thrown up Henri the Otter of Ennui and packed it in with the site slogan, until recently "nevermind, PANIC aaaaeeieieie," and every hot seat list has Rich Rodriguez foremost on the chopping block. The secondary preview begins with "what's the point of anything?" Penn State fans with short memories are making each other's dangly bits tingle by speculating about whether Michigan will ever come back. I just told that New York audience that I don't think Rodriguez is going to make it.
Brock Mealer's going to walk, though. On Saturday he's going to get up and walk under the MGoBlue banner in an act of defiance aimed at no one in particular. From the outside, what happened to Elliott Mealer and his family looks like an event that would physically and emotionally cripple anyone it happened to. It's orders of magnitude beyond any of the things I—we—have felt sorry for ourselves about over the past couple years. Something in them was resilient, though, and with the aid of this staff they'll reclaim a small part something they thought lost on Saturday.
They can—probably already have—transfer this to the people around them. As I said about Manningham :01:
In the end, the game served as a reminder that bitterness is no fun, faith is rewarded, the kids on the field are more resilient than we are, and sometimes they can let us borrow some of that.
For both us and the team it's time to put away the eyeliner and walk.
Of The Decade: Worst Calls
Editor's note: I moved this weekend and am currently on the floor two feet from the modem; I'll be out the rest of the day assembling the new place.
Previously in this series: ESPN Images, Michigan's offense, Michigan's defense, Worst Plays of The Decade Part 1, Worst Plays Part 2, Best Plays Part I, Best Plays Part II.
In two sections for balance: calls that went in favor of Michigan and calls against Michigan. Importance is somewhat… uh… important, but here we're looking for the biggest ref boners of the decade. Games that finish 60-7 don't make the cut but a terrible call in a game that's competitive does even if that call doesn't swing the game.
Spartan Bob is excluded since that was not an error.
In Which Michigan Is Bailed Out
5. Braylon's catch-like-substance against Washington
This set up the #2 play of the decade, in which Phil Brabbs nailed a 44-yard field goal to give Michigan a last-second win against top-ten Washington:
Despite its huge importance, this play checks in last because you can make a case that Edwards did bring the ball in and move upfield before it popped loose. It's at least close.
4. Armageddon bailout
This is not on the 'tubes, unfortunately, so you'll just have to take my word for it. From that game's UFR:
Herbstreit immediately bursts into a spiel about how that's obvious interference and I'm like 'no it isn't.' This ball is well underthrown -- Mario had burned O'Neal crispy -- allowing the S to get back into the play. He doesn't look, the ball hits him in the back or arm or something, and Manningham's progress is never impeded. This is the same kind of crappy call we've been getting on our DBs all year, and it's still crappy when it happens in our favor. (IN, 1, protection 2/2)
That was fourth and sixteen on Michigan's 44 with time running out in Football Armageddon and Michigan down ten; given the gift of new life on a pass interference call that didn't even see the defensive back touch the receiver, Michigan would score and get the opportunity to attempt an onside kick.
3. Bryant Johnson's inexplicable non-catch
The clip below contains back-to-back plays in the 2004 Penn State game; this entry deals with the second, when Bryant Johnson came up with a patented Zack Mills Hopeful Downfield Jump Ball, got not one but two feet in-bounds, and was somehow ruled out of bounds:
If Bryant was correctly ruled in-bounds Penn State would have been in game-winning field goal range with almost a minute left on the clock to set up a chip shot.
2. Illinois double fumble mishap
Fumbles are hard. But even so you these plays late in the fourth quarter of a game Michigan was trailing by three caused outrage in Champaign, then outrage in Ann Arbor after the Big Ten took the unprecedented step of apologizing for them:
Harvey was down. If your helmet hits the ground, you are down. (If anything other than your foot or hand hits the ground, you're down) Thomas was not. The two plays were separated by just one six-yard Askew run, and to this day whenever you're pretending you care about the Illini to an Illini fan they will bring this up. Unlike Penn State, they've got beef.
1. Pylongate
Michigan ended up losing this game but other than the dadaist Oregon-Oklahoma onside kick there has probably never been a worse call in college football. It's the 2008 Michigan State game and Michigan has a third and goal from around the ten. Steven Threet tosses a wheel route to Minor that's juuust a bit outside, Minor catches it but lands well out of bounds, field goal team comes on, and then the ref gets buzzed.
In the stands people are trying to figure out why. Multiple theories are passed around, none of which stick. As best we can figure there's a confusing television angle in which it looks like Minor managed to get a foot down that will be quickly shown false and we can get on with our lives. The call does not come. We are waiting too long for something not to be amiss. At this point, the replay official should be calling someone to double-check his insane rule interpretation, but he's not. He's just calling it down: Brandon Minor is in the endzone because his foot touched the pylon, which is "part of the endzone" in one part of the rulebook. Problem: in another part of the rulebook it is specifically declared not something that can make a catch in-bounds.
As the ref raises his hands sheepishly, 105,700 people in Michigan Stadium know that something has just gone wrong—everyone but the replay official. The Big Ten later admits error and promotes Jim Augustine to praetor.
This is number one because it's a perfect storm of ineptness: the call was right on the field and was overturned to be incorrect by the replay official
Specifically Omitted Non-Errors
Two seconds of whining lasts a lifetime. For the last time, Penn State fans: asking for time on the clock because the clock operator did not stop the thing after the ref called timeout is not a bad call. You know who thinks that? Joe Paterno, who called timeout on Penn State's last drive and then badgered the refs for two extra seconds on the clock and got them.
Heel-toe. In that same game, Jason Avant picked up a key first down on a pass on the sideline where his toe came down in-bounds an instant before his heel struck out of bounds. The NCAA rulebook is very generous when it comes to getting in bounds: if any bit of you hits in bounds, you are in bounds.
Correct. In last year's Notre Dame game, Armando Allen stepped out of bounds on a screen that looked like it went for a touchdown. Replay overturned the call and ND eventually settled for a field goal. Notre Dame fans complain about this.
Outrages(!) In Which Michigan Is Screwed
5. Bryant Johnson inexplicable catch
This should look familiar:
This is the first Bryant Johnson catch-type substance where Johnson hits the ground and the ball immediately flies out as he hits the ground. The ground can't cause a fumble but it certainly can cause you to not catch the ball, and Johnson never had control. On third and forever, this would have forced a Penn State punt and allowed Michigan a chance to win in regulation.
4. Sure, his entire body is in the endzone but maybe the ball isn't
This wouldn't have been an issue if Chad Henne hadn't fumbled the ball on the ensuing snap from the one-inch line, but he did so holy hell:
It is impossible for someone to be in that position after the play is over and to have not scored a touchdown. As a bonus, Notre Dame had twelve guys on the field and was not called, not that that would have prevented Henne from fumbling on the next play.
3. That's not even a phantom touchdown, it's a phantom run to the one
In the 2002 Notre Dame game, all manner of infuriating stuff happened as Michigan blew the momentum from their win over Washington in a 25-23 loss to the Notre Dame team that inaugurated the jokes about Field Goal Jesus. One of the non-field-goals was a touchdown-type substance by Carlyle Holiday in which the guy fumbled at the two (the two!) and still managed to convince the refs that he had entered the endzone ball-in-hand. Since Michigan lost and Notre Dame's version of Wolverine Historian is a slacker, there is no video of the dread event. It did make it into the game recaps…
Michigan committed another costly error when receiver Tyrece Butler fumbled at his own 24 and Holiday scored on a three-yard run with 23 seconds left in the half. Holiday appeared to fumble before reaching the end zone, but the officials still signaled a touchdown.
...in case anyone thinks I'm insane.
2. Domata Peko fumble rumble
I was at this game and after the replay official upheld the call on the field we complained so loud and long that an elderly Michigan State fan threatened us. But if any college fanbase was familiar with the intricacies of the tuck rule, it was that of the school which produced both Tom Brady and Charles Woodson. We had a righteous cause:
In the aftermath, rule books were delved into, laws specifically addressing the situation unearthed, and slack-jawed gaping disbelief retroactively justified:
When a Team A player is holding the ball to pass it forward toward the neutral zone, any intentional forward movement of his arm starts the forward pass. If a Team B player contacts the passer or ball after forward movement begins and the ball leaves the passer's hand, a forward pass is ruled regardless of where the ball strikes the ground or a player (A.R. 2-19-2-I).
Michigan ended up with the win but it took overtime; without the error Michigan likely wins by somewhere in the range of seven to ten points in regulation.
1. If your elbow hits the ground and you're not Antonio Bass, you're down
1. If your elbow hits the ground and you're not Antonio Bass, you're down
This takes the cake because, like the Minor touchdown, it was a correct call on the field overturned by an inept or possibly insane replay official. It should be noted that it was karmically justified, as the refs had missed an ultra-rare Mike Hart fumble in the first half and the replay official then failed to buzz; there were also a couple of comically bad pass interference calls, one of which was seven yards downfield and saw Iowa inexplicably penalized fifteen yards. Iowa had a ridiculous call in their favor coming.
They got it. Antonio Bass came in for another of his Incredibly Surprising Quarterback Draws. Though intermittently effective on the day, Iowa stoned this one, getting Bass in the backfield and flipping him almost head-over-heels. As Bass crashed to the ground his elbow hit first, causing the ball to pop loose. Iowa recovered, the refs on the field ruled him down, and then the buzz came. After five minutes of looking at Bass's elbow touch the ground first, the replay official awarded Iowa the ball:
Unfortunately, the clip does not show the many copious replays that showed Bass was down but the reaction of announcers normally loathe to criticize officials should suffice.
(Odd side note: all of these plays are from 2002 or 2005.)

Of The Decade: Best Plays Part II
Previously in this series: ESPN Images, Michigan's offense, Michigan's defense, Worst Plays of The Decade 7-11, Worst Plays 1-6, Best Plays Part I.
6. Buffalo Stampede
2003 Minnesota: trailing 14-0, Michigan has driven to around midfield. John Navarre chucks a WR screen to Steve Breaston, who throws it back to Navarre. Forty yards later, we all have beards and Michigan is within seven points.
At some point in the 2003 Minnesota game I needed to get off the couch after something enraging had happened. I was on it with my girlfriend at the time and she sort of ended up on the ground as I executed my plan. The couch was low to the ground, she was unharmed, and in the aftermath the incident seemed funny. At the time all I could do was clench and unclench my fists.
Michigan would eventually deploy an all-shotgun offense in the fourth quarter that shredded Minnesota for 24 points and win the game on a Garrett Rivas 33-yarder, but at the time it was grim. It would have been more grim but for the trick play of the decade:
In the aftermath a friend immediately called me screaming "WHAT." It wasn't a question. It was just "WHAT." That. From seven year's distance it appears to be the slowest, most awkward touchdown convoy in school history.
Eventually it was key in Michigan's comeback win and Rose Bowl berth but really it's just here for its sheer improbability. It was one thing to run the transcontinental with Drew Henson; doing it with John Navarre—and getting a touchdown out of it—is pure audacity. This, by the way, is why Minnesota bloggers will never do a Worst Plays of the Decade list.
5. In ur base killin ur d00dz
MGoRetro: Pit Bull.
Penn State, 2006: it's second or third and long or something again, can't remember, doesn't matter, and I'm back in the pocket and I know I'm going to die. My offensive line has proven itself entirely hypothetical at this point. So I'm going to die, and it's not going to have any purpose. But this time I actually get a faint semblance of protection and I manage to find an open receiver—I'd forgotten those even existed—and I hurl it out there. And if Alan Branch hadn't driven his facemask into my shoulder and run through my tiny hoo-man body and left me in a concussed heap on the ground I would have gotten to see a first down. Which would have been nice.
But then I might have had to play the rest of the game instead of getting an emergency cup of pudding repurposed from JoePa's stash. So, yeah. I could go either direction, as long as it's 180 degrees from wherever Branch is going.
When Michigan fans are (unwisely, these days) attempting to tweak their Penn State coworkers this play, and the iconic image from its aftermath, is their go-to option. That's a meaningful statement when you've got most of a decade's worth of gloating to choose from, including another play on this list.
As for the significance of the play, Penn State had bounced back from its early decade malaise in a big way in 2005, going 11-1 with the only loss featured a bit higher on this list. By the time the PSU game rolled around in '06 it was obviously the only thing standing between Michigan and a 1-vs-2 matchup against Ohio State at the end of the season. Michigan's last four opponents would all finish with losing records; the only road game was against Indiana. When Anthony Morelli got blasted out of the game the decks were clear.
More than that, though, Alan Branch being in ur base is emblematic of the first ten games of 2006, when the Michigan defense was 1997 all over again and things were, briefly, back on course.
4. "Oh, wide open"
MGoRetro: Quod Erat Demonstrandum
Notre Dame, 2006: Late in the first quarter, Michigan and Notre Dame are tied 7-7 after exchanging terrible interceptions when Chad Henne drops back to pass and launches one deep. Pat Haden breaks the suspense before the cameraman can catch up to a streaking Manningham by declaring "oh, wide open." When Manningham finally appears he is running under a perfectly thrown ball, all alone.
Michigan entered the 2006 game uncertain of its place in the college football universe after a frustrating 7-5 season this blog nicknamed the "Year of Infinite Pain," if only to highlight how sheltered the Michigan fanbase has been in the aftermath of the last couple years. And if Alan Branch sending Anthony Morelli to his happy place was emblematic of Michigan's run to Football Armageddon, Mario Manningham getting ten yards clear of the nearest Notre Dame cornerback was the moment the Year of Infinite Pain became part of the past:
Manningham would score twice more on deep balls as Michigan leapt out to a commanding lead. They didn't look back until the second quarter of the Ohio State game.
3. Braylonfest Part III
Michigan State, 2004: Braylon Edwards skies over yet another Michigan State defensive back, tying a game in which Michigan trailed by 17 with under nine minutes to go.
Braylon Edwards was the most frustrating great player in Michigan history, prone to terrible drops on easy throws and legendarily not "on the same page" as Lloyd Carr. But he was great, and never greater than the last eight minutes of regulation in the 2004 Michigan State game. If they gave out Heismans for a single game, they would have had to give Edwards two for this one.
It almost wasn't anything, though. In this game Michigan was driving in the third quarter, down 17-10, when Edwards fumbled around the 20. He was creeping towards the goat side of the ledger when DeAndra Cobb ran That Goddamned Counter Draw again and outran Ernest Shazor to the sideline and the endzone. But when you're down 17 with under eight minutes left, what is there to do other than chuck it up and tell the onside kick team that they should try really hard?
I remember many things about that game. I remember being cold as hell as the game dragged on and the heat fled from the stadium. I remember going over to a friend's house afterward and being told by his roommates that they had actually left immediately after the DeAndra Cobb TD. I remember another friend telling me that a State friend of his had turned the game off as soon as Michigan hit the field goal to get within 14—he didn't even wait for the onside kick. I remember turning around and jovially telling the State fans behind me that it was good that MSU missed their last-second 52-yard field goal attempt to win after a terrible PI call, because if it had gone in there was no way they were getting out of the stadium alive. But mostly I remember the shadows that gave the whole enterprise an otherworldly feel. It's without question the best game I've ever been to.
The pick here is the game-tying touchdown, as at that point victory seemed inevitable and the comeback was complete. Without it, the others are just coulda-been plays like the Mike Hart touchdown in the Horror.
2. Phil Brabbs is absolutely not going to make this field goal
Washington, 2002: Phil Brabbs hits a 44 yard field goal as time expires to beat Washington.
I've interacted with Phil Brabbs a little bit since he came down with cancer and I've read his blog and am wearing his bracelet, so I have a little insight here. The bracelet says DOMINATE and his blog has pictures of him DOMINATING various things from hospital ice cream to IVs to chemo drugs. Sometimes he makes his adorable children DOMINATE things. He's kind of like anthropomorphized Brawndo. So I'm betting that when Brabbs strolled onto the field after a preposterous sequence of events set him up with a potential game-winning field goal in the 2002 season opener, he was totally psyched to dominate himself some 44-yard field goal.
In this, he was utterly alone.
I'm sure his parents and wife tell him that they just knew he'd hit it, but after a career debut in which he missed 36 and 42 yard field goals badly enough for Michigan to send out Troy Neinberg on a 27-yarder that he shanked, no one in Michigan Stadium thought a 44-yard field goal with no time left on the clock was going in. This includes those nearest and dearest to him. I was just hoping it went forward.
Naturally, Brabbs did this:
Though Washington would end up one of the country's biggest disappointments at 7-6, they entered Michigan Stadium a top ten opponent. The moment the kick actually went through the actual uprights and everyone looked at the guy under the crossbar to make sure they hadn't hallucinated it, then looked at the other guy under the crossbar to make sure the first guy hadn't been hallucinating too, promised grand things. (That would fall apart in a ridiculous loss at Notre Dame in two weeks.)
1. The New Math
MGoRetro: The New Math.
Penn State, 2005: With one second on the clock, Mario Manningham catches a deep slant to beat Penn State 27-25. 86 = 1, as Michigan State would learn in 2007.
Why is this number one? It didn't end up mattering, and it was already clear it wouldn't since Michigan was already 3-3 and headed nowhere in 2005. It was the end of a classic game that swung dramatically from one side to the other, but other games were better and meant more.
I think it's that :01 on the clock, the knowledge that that second was precarious, fought for by Lloyd Carr after the clock ran after a Michigan timeout, preserved by Steve Breaston's best Tyrone Butterfield impression, and ironically Joe Paterno's fault for getting his team an extra two seconds on what they thought was their game-winning drive. Michigan was living on borrowed time. It seemed like they'd been given a chance to go back and right wrongs. Scott Bakula was at quarterback.
Meanwhile, Michigan was locked in an existential crisis unknown for decades. The 1984 season could be written off as a fluke since Jim Harbaugh's broken leg threw everything into disarray and Michigan bounced right back afterwards; 2005 was entirely different. Michigan had never been 3-3 in my recollection. My brother and I spent a large chunk of the game being bitterly cynical about everything. We felt justified about it after the killer Henne fumble/botched extra point for two combination. We'd collectively decided to dull the pain by withdrawing emotionally. This was working for a while, and then the team decided to give the middle finger to the cosmic middle finger, getting off the mat twice. The culmination:
In the end, the game served as a reminder that bitterness is no fun, faith is rewarded, the kids on the field are more resilient than we are, and sometimes they can let us borrow some of that. A lot of the plays on this list were diminished by subsequent events in which Michigan failed to live up to the promise they had in that one moment, but this one has been magnified by the awful last couple of years. It promises a light at the end of the tunnel.

(MCT) — Mac and cheese is all about technique. And you thought it was about the cheese.
There is more to achieving the best texture and flavor, says Ellen Brown, author of "Mac & Cheese: 80 Classic & Creative Versions of the Ultimate Comfort Food" (Running Press, $20).
"The difference between a good mac and cheese and a great mac and cheese is technique," says Brown, cookbook author, food columnist and former USA Today food editor. And the key elements of that technique are cooking the pasta to the proper doneness and stirring up a smooth sauce.
"If mac and cheese is oven baked, you have to undercook the pasta and it has to look really soupy when it goes in the oven," Brown says. "You want that soupiness so after 20 minutes or a half hour you'll have exactly the right consistency."
With those elements conquered, the third is an ingredient, not method, and is, of course, that cheese. You want to use flavorful cheese, certainly, but you also want a combination of two or more for complexity.
Whether stove top or baked (better, thank you), classic or with add-ins of various vegetables (greens, broccoli, artichokes) or proteins (lobster, chicken, bacon), a mac and cheese's greatness is built upon this foundation. Brown — along with Laura Werlin's "Mac & Cheese, Please!" — breaks it down below.
You must undercook the pasta before baking the casserole because the pasta cooks more in the oven. Start with a dried pasta high in durum semolina, choosing short shapes (less than 2 inches).
Brown and Werlin list more than a dozen, but start with penne, gemelli, elbows or orecchiette. Skip expensive artisan imported varieties, Brown advises; spend the money on the cheese instead.
Then cook that pasta in plenty of well-salted boiling water until it begins to soften, but is not yet al dente — about 1 minute short of the low end of the maker's suggested cooking time. Taste to check doneness.
Go for quality. Go for complexity. Get the latter by using a combination of cheeses.
"Your dominant player is a cheese you would sit down and eat by itself: all forms of cheddar, Gruyere and Gouda," Brown says. "Cheeses that are not overwhelming."
The supporting player will have stronger flavor, like a blue cheese or Parmesan. You'll use less of this.
"It's amazing what a little bit will do," says Brown.
Buy from a cheese shop or grocer with a good cheese counter. (Again, both authors offer dozens of ideas.) Barring that, choose supermarket cheeses like cheddar, Monterey Jack and jalapeno jack, Brown says. And skip the pre-shredded.
"Cheese begins to lose flavor the second it's grated," she warns.
The key to a velvety-smooth cheese sauce that coats the pasta and other ingredients uniformly is a simple roux. That mixture forms the base for a bechamel, a simple-to-make sauce.
Yet Brown has found in her years of food journalism that few people know how to make it. Here's how:
Cook butter (or other fat) and flour together over low heat so the flour loses its uncooked taste; slowly whisk in the milk (warm it first, she says) over medium heat to avoid lumps; cook gently until the sauce begins to thicken; add the cheese gradually, otherwise the sauce will cool and the cheese may form a giant lump that won't melt easily.
Prep: 30 minutes Cook: 40 minutes
Makes: 4 to 6 servings
Adapted from "Mac & Cheese," by Ellen Brown, who adapted the recipe from S'MAC (Sarita's Macaroni & Cheese) in New York.
8 cloves garlic, unpeeled
1 to 2 teaspoons olive oil
6 ounces baby spinach
½ pound penne
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons flour
1 ½ cups whole milk, warmed
2 teaspoons fresh thyme
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
6 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
2 ounces Muenster, grated
½ teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper
¼ cup pitted kalamata olives, diced
3 ounces provolone, grated
¼cup plain breadcrumbs
1) Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Toss garlic with oil; wrap in foil. Bake until cloves are soft, 15-20 minutes. Allow to cool. Pop cloves from skins; mash into a paste.
2) Meanwhile, heat a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop in the spinach; cook just until wilted, 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon; drain. When cool, squeeze out liquid. Add pasta to boiling water; cook until just beginning to soften; it should not yet be al dente. Drain; rinse the pasta. Return it to the pot.
3) Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; stir in flour. Cook, stirring, until mixture turns slightly beige, is bubbly and appears to have grown in volume, 1 minute. Increase heat to medium; slowly whisk in the milk. Heat until just beginning to bubble, whisking frequently. Reduce heat to low; stir in thyme and lemon zest. Simmer, 2 minutes.
4) Add goat and Muenster cheeses by ½-cup measures, stirring until cheese melts before adding more. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir garlic, spinach and olives into pasta. Pour sauce over pasta; stir to coat. Transfer to a buttered 13-by-9-inch baking pan.
Combine provolone and breadcrumbs; sprinkle over dish.
5) Bake until cheese sauce is bubbly and topping browns, 20-30 minutes. Allow to rest 5 minutes before serving.

This recipe from "Mac & Cheese," by Ellen Brown, is adapted from Rockit Bar and Grill. It combines two favorite bar foods of chefs James Gottwald and Amanda Downing, mac and cheese and Buffalo chicken. Serve with celery sticks to complete the metaphor, says Brown. She calls for cooking the dish on the stove top, but we've changed it to an oven-baked dish, which we prefer, following her rule of thumb, see note. Finally, the original recipe called for melting the cheeses into cream instead of making a bechamel sauce. We've changed it to the latter method for a lighter dish.
½ pound cavatappi
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons flour
1 ¾ cups whole milk
¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup firmly packed grated Monterey Jack
½ cup crumbled Gorgonzola
½ teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 to 2 tablespoons hot sauce
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1 large grilled or broiled boneless, skinless chicken breast half, diced
2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives
½ cup breadcrumbs
1) Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Heat a pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Cook the pasta until just short of al dente. Drain; rinse under cold water. Return pasta to pot.
2) Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; stir in flour. Cook, stirring, until mixture turns slightly beige, is bubbly and appears to have grown in volume, 1 minute. Increase heat to medium; slowly whisk in the milk. Heat until just beginning to bubble, whisking frequently. Reduce heat to low. Whisk in the Parmesan and Monterey Jack; stir until melted. Whisk in the Gorgonzola. Simmer, 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3) Heat the butter, hot sauce and vinegar in a small skillet; add the chicken. Stir to coat evenly with the sauce. Season to taste.
4) Add the cheese sauce to the pasta; stir well. Fold in the chicken and chives. Pour into a buttered 13-by-9-inch baking dish or 2-quart casserole; sprinkle with the breadcrumbs. Bake, 20-30 minutes.

Note: To change any stove-top mac and cheese to oven-baked, follow Ellen Brown's method: Cook the pasta until not quite al dente, increase the liquid by 25 percent but keep the cheese amount the same. For baked into stove-top: Cut the liquid back by one quarter; cook the pasta until al dente.
Prep: 30 minutes Cook: 1 hour Makes: 6 servings
Adapted from "Mac & Cheese, Please!" by Laura Werlin. For many of her recipes, Werlin includes a sauce or other accompaniment to be served with the finished mac and cheese. Here she includes a tomatillo salsa. You could use a jarred version, or skip it altogether. We served it with rajas, roasted poblano peppers cut into strips, and loved it (see recipe below). Also, her recipe calls for finishing the dish on the stove top, but we prefer oven-baked so have adapted her directions.
8 ounces tomatillos, husks removed, quartered
1 medium white onion, peeled, cut lengthwise into 6 pieces
1 serrano pepper, halved lengthwise, seeded
2 tablespoons canola oil
½ teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
2 tablespoons water
Mac and cheese:
8 ounces small elbow macaroni
2 tablespoons canola oil
¼ cup flour
2 ½ cups 2 percent milk
1 teaspoon salt
12 ounces pepper jack cheese, coarsely grated, about 3 ½ cups
1 cup corn kernels, fresh or frozen (no need to thaw if frozen)
2 whole pickled jalapenos, finely chopped
½ cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro leaves, plus sprigs for garnish
½ cup crushed tortilla chips
1) For the salsa, heat the oven to 375 degrees. Put the tomatillos, onion and serrano pepper on a rimmed baking sheet. Toss with the oil. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper to taste. Roast, stirring occasionally, until the tomatillos have collapsed, about 20 minutes. Let cool a bit. Transfer to a food processor or blender with the cilantro and water; process until smooth. Taste for seasonings.
2) For the mac and cheese, heat a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta; cook until tender but firm; it should be short of al dente. Drain; rinse with cold water. Return pasta to pot.
3) Meanwhile, heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Slowly whisk in the flour; stir constantly until a paste forms, 30-45 seconds. Whisk until the mixture starts to darken slightly and smell a bit nutty, 1-2 minutes. Turn heat to medium-low. Slowly whisk in the milk and salt; cook until the mixture starts to thicken and is just beginning to bubble around the edges, 5-7 minutes. It should be thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon. Add the cheese in handfuls, waiting until it melts before adding more.
4) Stir the sauce into the pasta to coat well; fold in the corn, jalapenos and cilantro. Transfer to a buttered 2-quart souffle dish; sprinkle with the crushed tortilla chips. Bake at 375 degrees until sauce is bubbly and top begins to brown, 20-30 minutes. Let rest 15 minutes before serving. Serve topped with the salsa.

Roast 4 to 6 poblano peppers on a rimmed baking sheet under the broiler, turning to roast all sides, until the skins blacken and blister. Transfer to a paper bag; close bag, leaving peppers to steam, 10-15 minutes. When cool, peel off skins, remove pith and seeds, and cut peppers into ¼-inch strips. Saute half a white onion, chopped, in 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet until soft. Stir in pepper strips and 2-3 tablespoons cream, if you like. Season with salt. Cook to warm through.

investment management sector expects more scandals to emerge as
regulatory scrutiny of the countrys domestic fund
managers intensifies.
month, Japans Financial Services Agency (FSA) suspended
the operations of money management firm,
AIJ Investment Advisors, after it was unable to account for
the bulk of $2.6 billion in pension funds it managed on behalf
of 123 clients.
suspension follows the $1.7 billion accounting scandal at
Japanese camera maker Olympus,
which raised questions about the prevalence of white-collar
crime in Japan and the ability of Japanese financial regulators
to monitor offenders.
financial services minister, Shozaburo Jimi, last week
described the situation as deplorable and ordered a sweeping investigation into
the finances of 265 other money management companies in
As part
of these investigations fund management companies will be
required to disclose more information on their operations
including whether they had set up investment trust funds
overseas and whether they use external auditors.
Tokyo-based fund manager told IFLR the AIJ incident
had revealed the fundamental weaknesses at the ground level of
Japans pension fund system.
It has,
for instance, become commonplace for the countrys mid-
and small-sized pension funds to hire only one or two dedicated
managers, often without the necessary skills or professional
background to manage pension funds.
hires were often former employees of Japans scandal-hit
Social Insurance Agency which, before being abolished and
replaced by the Japan Pension Scheme in 2010, monitored
Japans pension fund policy at the national
smaller funds, without the means to hire from big names such as
Goldman Sachs, ex-employees of the Social Insurance Agency
seemed the best option, the fund manager said. It
was assumed they would be well qualified to do a good
regulations didnt effectively take those facts into
account, he said. And the gaps that developed
between industry assumptions and the regulatory reality created
room for the AIJ to manipulate those systematic
Mori Tomotsunes partner Akihito Nakamachi believed the
FSAs investigation
could identify other similar incidents.
The FSA
has been criticised for not monitoring the situation closer.
Thorough investigations are expected as a result to
properly address an issue which has now become the subject of
national debate, Nakamachi
But he
questioned how deep the scrutiny could go.
It is
obvious now that certain small and mid-sized funds do not have
the ability to assess risks and manage themselves so perhaps
they might be better off selling with lower risk and thereby
lower returns, he added.
But if
the FSA imposes too rigid restrictions, for example by limiting
the investment options available to pension funds, it risks
stifling the market.
ruling party, the Democratic Party of Japan, last week
plans to amend laws to require more stringent oversight of
asset management firms in a bid to prevent the recurrence of
such scandals.
Tokyo-based partner at an international law firm, however, was
unconvinced much would change. There will obviously be a
adjustment made. But drastic change would bring with it other
risks, he said, which authorities will understandably want to

Despite the cloud trend, the reality is that IT departments still buy a lot of infrastructure the traditional way, according to Faletra. To that end, solution providers shouldn't dump their existing business models completely for the cloud. Instead, solutions architecture will be a big trend in 2013, giving solution providers the opportunity to build hybrid solutions that include cloud-based components.

BOSTON — Bruins head coach Claude Julien said after practice today at the TD Garden that forward Nathan Horton suffered post-concussion-like symptoms after attempting to skate and has since ceased skating.
Horton was injured on a Tom Sestito hit in Philadelphia Jan. 22.
Horton reportedly skated on his own last Sunday while the Bruins were on the road. While the Bruins have classified the current concussion as "mild" it comes seven months after a more severe one he suffered on an Aaron Rome hit in the Stanley Cup Final.
"He's back to Square 1, and we're giving him some time here," said Julien.

The title works two ways for Vince Vaughn's character in this moderately entertaining seriocomic tale of an ex-sperm donor, many of whose progeny want to know who their father is. He has quite a few of them, too ... more than 500, making him panicked when about one-third of them take legal steps to determine his identity.
Eventually, though, the fact he's having a child with his girlfriend (Cobie Smulders, "How I Met Your Mother") prompts him to look into the lives of some of those he already has sired. Chris Pratt ("?Parks and Recreation") and Britt Robertson ("Life Unexpected") also appear in the film, a remake by director Ken Scott of his own movie "Starbuck" DVD extras: deleted scene; outtakes. *** (PG-13: AS, P, V) (Also on Blu-ray and On Demand)

Over a year ago, county leaders and residents cut the ribbon on the Harrison-Springfield extension on Rockford's far west side. The $15 million project was heralded as a road to economic development for the neighborhood, but local residents are still waiting for the windfall.
Steven Lineberry has lived along Springfield Avenue for 24 years.
"The west side of Rockford still has a bad reputation, and until things get turned around substantially I don't think that's going to change," says Lineberry.
There have been some signs of improvement, a new subdivision on Springfield north of State Street, the demolition of an eyesore, but that's about all.
"Nobody is going to sink money into a depressed area," says Lineberry.
But some Winnebago County leaders say road projects like this are the key to moving our economy forward.
"Infrastructure is probably the most important thing to any area. If you want to bring business in from the outside, you have to have avenues of coming in," says county board member, Randy Olson.
The county is considering borrowing $50 million for road projects over the next few years. Most of the projects are on the city's northeast side, which has some county leaders upset.
They say the west side needs attention too where roads are riddled with potholes and there are no sidewalks or curbs, but Olson says the county has to focus on smart growth.
"You have to be practical. We'd like to say we can divide the money equally among the county. That's not going to happen because you've got the growth right now on the northeast," Says Olson.
The republican says this is a good time to borrow because of low interest rates. Meanwhile, a study is underway to look at ways to develop the Harrison-Springfield corridor.

Institute for Politics and the American Dream awards first two Gilligan Scholarships
| April 6, 2010
The Xavier University Institute for Politics and the American Dream is awarding its first two $2,500 Gov. John J. Gilligan scholarships on Thursday, April 8, at a special recognition dinner on campus. Juniors Katherine Ryder from Dayton, Ohio, and Brice Lipman from Hartland, Wisc., are receiving the scholarships, which are named after former Ohio Gov. John J. Gilligan, who led the selection committee. The awards were based on the student's commitment to public service and a written submission articulating their public vision and goals.
The scholarships are funded through the John J. Gilligan Endowment, which was created last year to honor the substantial legacy of the former Ohio governor through the provision of scholarships to Xavier students and to inspire new generations to seek and expand the noble tradition of selfless, thoughtful and fearless public service that his life has exemplified.
Gilligan was Ohio Governor from 1971-1975 and a Xavier legacy. The Governor's grandfather was Xavier's first basketball coach and his father was the first lay member of the board of trustees. After returning from WWII, Gov. Gilligan took his first job teaching literature at the University.
During his tenure as governor, Ohio voters approved a progressive income tax that created the resources to save schools and reform the system of treatment and care of the mentally ill. He instituted tough occupational safety laws for Ohio workers and new consumer protection laws, as well as new environmental protection measures, including halting the blight of strip mining in Ohio's countryside.
The Gilligan family has continued in public service. Gov. Gilligan and his oldest daughter, Kathleen Sebelius, became the only father/daughter governor combination in American history. Today Sebelius serves as the Secretary for the U.S. Department for Health and Human Services.
The Institute for Politics and the American Dream aims to provide leadership in national discussions of politics and public policy in an academic setting. The Institute also serves as a center for researching crucial matters of public policy and governance, and disseminating its findings to the public.

This series should be used as the base to re-base other 64 bit ext3 patches. Action: Review patch 5-7 (sct and andreas?) Review the ext3 code to see if the values on the RHS of a assignment to ext3_fsblk_t type is able to support >32-bit (Mingming) 2. extents Alex incremental patches accroding to sct review comments: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114747546325468&w=2 and the 2.6.17-rc3 based full extents(with review comments) is at: ftp://ftp.clusterfs.com/pub/people/alex/2.6.17-rc3 48 bit support for extents: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114782787713869&w=2 Action: Review 48 bit support for extents patch (sct) rebase the 48bit support patch with ext3_fsblk_t patches (Alex? Mingming?) preallocation bit reservation in 48 bit extent (Alex) 3. 64bit-metadata Discussed about the proposed solution. Action: Rebase the 64bit-metadat patch to 2.6.17-rc4 and on top of the ext3_fsblk_t patches (Laurent/Bull) Address the block group offset addressing for groups across 16TB boundary, according to the proposed solution. (Laurent) Make sure the in-kernel super block fields are consistent with current e2fsprog super block (Laurent/Bull) 4.xttar Badari posted the proposed patch at: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114780048413669&w=2 And this updated patch on top of ext3_fsblk_t series: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114788340830995&w=2 Stephen raised the question whether we want to support 64 bit(32bit +32bit) on-disk i_file_acl in this series (which means take more bits from the inode). Andreas proposed we go with 48 bit i_file_acl for now and later enlarge the default inode size and make it 64 bit, probably together with other things we want to extend in inode and 64 bit extents changes. Action: Address the issue with on-disk i_file_acl is >32 bit, but in-kernel i_file_acl is 32 bit (due to sector_t is 32 bit if CONFIG_LBD) is not defined) (Badari) 5.64bit jbd latest & greatest patch is at: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114772997610743&w=2 The remaining work is to look at sector_t-jbd patch, review the sector_changes to see if they are all necessary and convert to ext3_fsblk_t correspondingly. Action: Badari & Mingming will follow on sector_t-jbd, Badari will look at 64 bit jbd support in e2fsprogs 6. e2fsprog changes Laurent posted e2fsprog 1.38 based changes http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ext2-devel&m=114734982826457&w=2 Plan to repost the series against latest e2fsprogs Action: Ted to send out the tar sorry, incomplete sentence above. Action: Ted to send out the tar ball of the current e2fsprogs tree to the list for people who will work on e2fsprogs to support >32 bit ext3. Laurent to rebase the BULL's e2fsprogs changes against Ted's e2fsprog tree. I found this quick tutorial about how to start using the e2fsprogs Mercurial repository at: http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/e2fsprogs-hacking.html 2. Next steps -- code changes -- kernel source integration/maintain -- e2fsprogs changes? 7. external patch deposit Currently the patches are located at http://ext2.sourceforge.net/48bitext3/patches/updated-patches/patches- ext3-blks_2.6.17rc4/ Once Ted init the cvs deposit for ext2 project on sf, we could move the patch series to cvs on ext2.sf.net. Action For folks who want to have access to cvs tree on ext2.sf.net and don't have account on sf.net, please create one and send to Ted. Ted is going to check if cvs service is enabled for ext2.sf.net project. Don is working on open a wiki page on one of the fedoracore website, and will send out a follow email. Thanks, Mingming
