- 1 Summary
- 2 Usage
- 3 Examples
- 4 Additional Information
The auto requires and provides system contained in RPM is quite useful; however, it sometimes picks up "private" package capabilities that shouldn't be advertised as global, things that are "just wrong", or things prohibited by policy (e.g. deps from inside
For example:
- Various "plugin" packages (e.g. Pidgin, Perl, Apache, KDE) are marked as "providing" private shared libraries outside the system path.
- Files in
%{_docdir}are routinely scanned, and can trigger prov/req when this is explicitly forbidden by policy.
This Guideline describes how to filter provides and requires on Fedora.
- MUST: Packages must not provide RPM dependency information when that information is not global in nature, or are otherwise handled (e.g. through a virtual provides system). e.g. a plugin package containing a binary shared library must not "provide" that library unless it is accessible through the system library paths.
- MUST: When filtering automatically generated RPM dependency information, the filtering system implemented by Fedora must be used, except where there is a compelling reason to deviate from it.
Location of macro invocation
It's strongly recommended that these filtering macros be invoked before %description, but after any other definitions. This will keep them in a consistent place across packages, and help prevent them from being mixed up with other sections.
Regular Expression Language
The regular expression variant used for these filters are POSIX.2 regular expressions (see man regex(7) ). In that variant, the literal characters
^.[$()|*+?{ need to be backslash escaped. Because rpm interprets backslashes as part of its parsing of spec files, you will need to use a double backslash for any escapes. A literal backslash ("
\") is represented by four backslashes.
Preventing files/directories from being scanned for deps (pre-scan filtering)
The macros
%__requires_exclude_from and
%__provides_exclude_from can be defined in a spec file to keep the dependency generator from scanning specific files or directories for deps. These macros should be defined with a regular expression that matches all of the directories or files. For instance:
# Do not check any files in docdir for requires %global __requires_exclude_from ^%{_docdir}/.*$ # Do not check .so files in the python_sitelib directory # or any files in the application's directory for provides %global __provides_exclude_from ^(%{python_sitelib}/*.\\.so|%{_datadir}/myapp/.*)$
Note that this macro replaces the
%filter_provides_in macro from the old filtering guidelines but it does not do the same thing. In particular:
- The old macro could be invoked multiple times. This one will only use the regex defined last.
- The old macro advised against anchoring the beginning of the regex (Using "^"). This macro recommends anchoring as it doesn't suffer from the compatibility problems of the old one.
- With the old macro it was common to specify a directory name to match everything in a directory recursively. With the new macro you may need to specify
.*because you should be anchoring your regular expressions.
Filtering provides and requires after scanning
In addition to preventing rpm from scanning files and directories for automatic dependency generation you can also tell rpm to discard a discovered dependency before it records the dependency in the rpm metadata. Use
__requires_exclude and
__provides_exclude for this. These macros should be defined as regular expressions. If an entry that rpm's automatic dependency generator created matches the regular expression then it will be filtered out of the requires or provides. For example:
# This might be useful if plugins are being picked up by the dependency generator %global __provides_exclude ^libfoo-plugin.so.*$ # Something like this could be used to prevent excess deps from an # example python script in %doc %global __requires_exclude ^/usr/bin/python$
These macros serves a similar purpose to the old
%filter_from_provides macro but it has a different implementation. In particular, that macro took sed expressions whereas this one needs a regular expression.
Simplified macros for common cases
In some cases, the filtering of extraneous
Provides: is fairly generic to all packages which provide similar things. There are simple macros that setup filters correctly for those cases so that you can do the filtering with one line. If you need to filter a bit more than the simple macro provides, you still have the option to use the macros listed above.
Perl extension modules can be filtered using this macro:
This is equivalent to:
%global __provides_exclude_from %{perl_vendorarch}/auto/.*\\.so$|%{perl_archlib}/.*\\.so$|%{_docdir} %global __requires_exclude_from %{_docdir} %global __provides_exclude perl\\(VMS|perl\\(Win32|perl\\(DB\\)|perl\\(UNIVERSAL\\) %global __requires_exclude perl\\(VMS|perl\\(Win32
Pidgin plugin package
On a x86_64 machine, the pidgin-libnotify provides
pidgin-libnotify.so()(64bit) which it shouldn't as this library is not inside the paths searched by the system for libraries. It's a private, not global, "provides" and as such must not be exposed globally by RPM.
To filter this out, we could use:
%global __provides_filter_from ^%{_libdir}/purple-2/.*\.so$
Private Libraries
At this time, filtering of private libraries is non-trivial. This is because the symbols you want to filter from the private libraries are usually required by the public applications that the package ships. In order to filter, you need to find out what symbols rpm is extracting for the private library and then remove those in both
%__provides_exclude and
As an example, pretend you are packaging an application foo that creates
%{_libdir}/foo/libprivate.so that you want to filter and
%{_bindir}/foobar that requires that private library. You could:
- First build the rpm:
$ rpmbuild -ba foo.spec
- then determine what provides rpm decided for the private library:
$ rpm -qp foo-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm
libprivate.so()(64bit) foo = 1.0-1.fc19 foo(x86-64) = 1.0-1.fc19
- See that "
libprivate.so()(64bit)" appears to be the only symbol that rpm extracted for this package. Note that on 32 bit, the provides will be
libprivate.soso your regex needs to capture both.
- Add the excludes to the spec file for both requires and provides:
[...] %global _privatelibs libprivate.so.* %global __provides_exclude ^(%{_privatelibs})$ %global __requires_exclude ^(%{_privatelibs})$ [...]
You can take a look at a more complex example on the mailing list. This can be a pain to maintain if the upstream changes the names of its private libraries but it is the only way to deal with this at present. There may be a better means in the future but there are no solid plans on when those might be coded as of yet..
Arch-specific extensions to scripting languages
e.g. to ensure an arch-specific perl-* package won't provide or require things that it shouldn't, we could use an invocation as such:
# we don't want to provide private Perl extension libs %{?perl_default_filter}
A recipe for python:
# we don't want to provide private python extension libs in either the python2 or python3 dirs %global __provides_exclude_from ^(%{python_sitearch}|%{python3_sitearch})/.*\\.so$
%_docdir filtering
By policy, nothing under
%_docdir is allowed to either "provide" or "require" anything. We can prevent this from happening by preventing anything under
%_docdir from being scanned:
# we don't want to either provide or require anything from _docdir, per policy %global __provides_exclude_from ^%{_docdir}/.*$ %global __requires_exclude_from ^%{_docdir}/.*$

Unlocked San Bernadino iPhone providing some leads in investigation
Date: Tuesday, April 19th, 2016, 11:46
Category: iPhone, Legal, security
In spite of all the controversy and kerfuffle surrounding the San Bernadino iPhone and the steps taken to unlock it, sources are indicating that the FBI is getting some useful information and leads from the device.
Investigators are now more confident that terrorist Syed Farook didn't make contact with another plotter during an 18-minute gap that the FBI said was missing from their time line of the attackers' whereabouts after the mass shooting, the officials said. The phone has helped investigators address lingering concern that the two may have help, perhaps from friends and family.
While the unlocked iPhone 5c didn't contain evidence of ISIS-associated contacts or the use of encrypted communications during the period the FBI was concerned about, officials are saying that it helps them narrow the search and exclude certain possibilities.
Private sector hackers hired by the FBI helped investigators gain access to the phone, which was at the center of a legal dispute between the government and Apple.
Apple was fighting a judge's order to help the FBI get past security features to get access to the phone's data.
The data is still being analyzed and more leads are being followed, the officials said. Much of the mystery of the missing 18 minutes, and why the terrorists drove seemingly aimlessly around the San Bernardino area following the attack, remains unsolved.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.

I'm 17 and he's 16, we are sorta friends from a year ago who reunited and sparks flew.
The thing is, the night he basically admitted to me they flew, and then a couple days later were so passionate. We kissed, cuddled, hung out etc. He told me he loves me, was a actually a very deep person, was very romantic and it seemed genuine, we kissed and he seemed a bit experienced but he complimented me a lot.
Then Tuesday I guess we hung out, and well I went to his band concert and he acted weird. Like he chose for us to be alone, even though it seemed like he wanted to be around his friends. He seemed stressed out, and not affectionate. He acted weird when other guys talked to me, like holding my hand more etc. But aside from that he acted really stoic and stressed out. I said something sweet to make him grin though.
We went back to his place, and I only went cause his sister invited me. However I wish I never had, it seemed like we were trying to constantly hide or sneak away from his mother (who I am under impression was giving him a hard time) she ended up saying I had to leave and he kept saying sorry etc.
he told that night though that one night his mom cornered him and had a sex talk about how she would not support him. He acted like sex was a bad idea and I told him myself its not something I want right now. etc. He also never acts impulsive and covers my shirt even when we kiss if it rides up.
We seem very innocent when kissing cuddling, rolling around. I love it.
He's been so gentlemanly to me its wonderful, and he acts so sweet and stuff.
However ever since Tuesday, and I even asked him about it but he said she was fine. Well its been weird, yeah he texts me saying hello or hi babe but its like he doesn't act flirtatious in his texts like he sorta was? I'm the one who said good night for the past couple nights anyway, and last night he forgot even and didn't even say sweet dreams...
Also, he doesn't seem as psyched as he was to hang out? We were gonna hang out and I had to cancel Friday so he said Saturday was cool, but now he has to babysit or something. I said fine I understand, I'm always fine with him if he has to go or something cause I don't want to get him in trouble or be clingy.
It just seemed so coincidental I guess, and I even sent him a remark that morning (he usually intiates texting so I decided to do it to be affectionate, and I told him he was the best) he acted like he liked it also. And we both play argued who was awesome, I told him he was awesome for being so understanding since I couldn't hangout and then he said no I was awesome?
ANd when he had to cancel plans I said "its fine, we can hangout again sometime I understand" He said glad to hear.
But its weird, I know we talked late but he didn't even say goodnight or anything. And he's babysitting all day?
I don't mind waiting on him or letting him do his own thing, but is he acting less sweet and flirtatious cause he's using me or knows I won't get mad?
Was he not serious to begin with or is it possible he's used to me?
I'm 17 and he's 16, we are sorta friends from a year ago who reunited and sparks flew.
Have an opinion?
What Guys Said 1
It seems that he was given a good talk by his mom, and he's just distraught at the moment. Try to spend more time with him in person, and surely, his flirtatious side will come back again.00|00|0
Yeah but he won't tell me if she did and I asked him and said sorry. We also only hangout on weekends but today he's stuck babysitting and I don't want to just invite myself over again all rudely or something? I am seriously trying but I don't want to appear clingy I guess or annoying?
- Show AllShow Less
Can I just invite myself over like that? Stupid question but wouldn't that be rude I guess? Idk
That's why you need permission first.
Text him something like, "I'm really interested in the child you're babysitting. Want me to accompany you?"
What Girls Said 1
I'm not going to read your novel, but the fact that he's 16 and you're 17 is very disturbing, especially to ask such question. You're both under 18. Stop it and focus on school.00|00|0
We very much are actually, he's a really mature guy and knows a lot both book wise and common sense wise. We actually have long drawm out discussions on certain topics, and he knows tons on chemistry and mathmatics. I homeschool and he is getting accepted into a specialized boarding school. This isn't that we are focusing on ourselves, its just my own insecurities I am venting on a websites specificully meant for it. My first relationship, and I am I'm unsure...

What Is the Torah Perspective on Safe Spaces, Trigger Words and Political Correctness?
I currently attend a college in the U.S., and lately there has been much controversy surrounding "safe spaces," where students can retreat to avoid the overwhelm caused by triggering words and ideas. Many insist on their importance, while others contend that they hamper dialogue and free speech.
I was wondering, what is the Jewish perspective on safe spaces and the overabundance of political correctness on campuses these days? Should professors and other lecturers not speak about certain topics or use certain words because students might feel triggered?
I'm well aware that this controversy is nuanced and politically charged, so without getting into the particulars of safe spaces, let me give you a Jewish perspective:
A quick visit to any Talmudic study hall is enough to make it abundantly clear that Judaism is very much in favor of boisterous, spirited (to put it mildly) debate to help sharpen one's opinions and reach a correct conclusion. The Talmud itself is essentially arranged as a series of arguments between the rabbis, debating a host of Judaic subjects.
In fact, the Talmud tells us that one can really acquire Torah knowledge only through learning in groups, and it has some very harsh words for those who don't want to learn with others.1
In short, it's clear that healthy and even heated discussion between opposing viewpoints is the Jewish way. The real question, however, is: what is the Torah's view on freedom of speech? Should some speech be curtailed?
Freedom of Speech and the G‑d Factor
First, we need to understand an underlying philosophical difference between the Constitution and the Torah. According to the Constitution, man was created with natural rights, so the government sees it as its job to create laws that protect those rights. According to the Torah, however, G‑d did not just create us and leave us up to our own devices; rather, He is actively involved in the world and cares what we do. Therefore, He did not give us passive rights, but active responsibilities and duties.
So as much as the Torah holds vigorous debate and speech in high regard, it doesn't hesitate to prohibit certain types of speech, such as lashon hara—i.e., to speak negatively about someone else, even if it is true.2 Speaking negatively about someone violates the biblical commandment "You shall not go around as a gossipmonger amidst your people. You shall not stand by [the shedding of] your fellow's blood. I am the L‑rd."3 And depending on the situation, talebearing can violate up to 31 Torah commandments.4
To be sure, if keeping silent will result in physical or financial harm to someone, then one is required to speak up.5 Nevertheless, all things being equal, such speech is prohibited. (For more on this, see my article Whistle-Blowing in Jewish Law.)
Onaat Devarim—Hurtful Speech
Of course, your question isn't so much about whether one can speak negatively about a person to someone else, but whether one can use speech that may be hurtful or arouse negative emotions in the listener.
The Torah states that "one shall not aggrieve his fellow, and you shall fear your G‑d, for I am the L‑rd your G‑d."6 Jewish law explains that this prohibition of onaat devarim includes purposely saying something that will hurt, frighten or embarrass someone.7
Onaat devarim includes reminding someone who repented of his previous sins, telling someone that his troubles and misfortunes were caused by his sins,8 or even speaking negatively to a convert about his prior life.9 This prohibition applies to all times and spaces.10
At the same time, if one is saying hurtful things to you or someone else, you are not required to remain silent in fear of replying in a hurtful manner and transgressing this prohibition.11 (Contrary to popular belief, "turning the other cheek" is not a Jewish value. For more on that, see Is Turning the Other Cheek a Jewish Value?)
Practically speaking, if Jewish law deems certain speech to be negative or hurtful, it is prohibited in almost every circumstance. The concept of a safe space is irrelevant. (At the same time, it should be noted that not all speech that a safe space is meant to protect from is necessarily prohibited according to Jewish law.)
This leads us to the next part of your question, whether a teacher should make sure to be politically correct in the classroom and avoid certain words.
Political Correctness and Noah's Ark
The Talmud points out a fascinating detail in the Bible's description of Noah gathering all the animals into the ark.12 The verse states, "Of the pure animals, and of the animals that are not pure . . . two by two they came to Noah into the ark, male and female, as G‑d had commanded Noah."13
This is an unusual expression. In general, the Torah is written in short and concise language. Every letter has meaning, and no letters are extraneous. So why call an animal "not pure" instead of "impure," which uses an extra eight letters in Hebrew? Because the Torah is avoiding referring to these animals in a derogatory way, teaching us the importance of refined speech.
But then the Talmud goes on to say that many times the Torah does use the term "impure"—because when it comes to teaching students, one should always use clear, concise language, even at the expense of more refined speech.14
So although teachers need to be mindful of what they say, and certainly never intentionally use harmful speech, when choosing between PC and non-PC language, it is important that clear, concise and unambiguous language be used, lest the lesson become garbled and misunderstood.
Safe Spaces Are Still Up for Debate
We've left plenty of room for your classmates to debate the pros and cons of safe spaces from the perspective of constitutional rights. Just keep in mind that from a Jewish perspective, talking negatively is almost always prohibited.
Safe spaces as discussed in the instant matter are for children. Adults should never retreat from verbalization that their inner child finds stressful. Retreating and sucking your thumb is self defeating.
Constitutional Rights The rights in the constitution are not enumerated so government would "create laws that protect [them]", but rather to ensure government creates no laws which infringe upon them. Furthermore, the realm of religion and government must differ. What upsets G-d and degrades society is not always sufficiently damaging to require government compulsion. Merging these is a path towards authoritarian rule.
Implied meaning Unfortunately, people who support "safe spaces" interpret the word "hurtful" as "anything we disagree with". So refusing to call a man a woman or vice versa is considered hugely hurtful, when it's really an acknowledgement of the truth and how Hashem created the world. The Torah says "mi'devar sheker tirchak" (distance yourself from falsehood).
Peace be upon our Prophet Moses , Prophet Noah as well ! I appreciate this answer! We should refrain from speaking ill of others, sometimes when it happens we immediately have to seek forgiveness from G-d and have to pray sincerely...asking G-d for His forgiveness our G-d is a Single G-d, the Creator and the Sustainer...Belief in G-d is foremost important for Muslims ,Jews & Christians...the differences exists...We must avoid the differences and have to focus to learn lot from our religion to leave in peace, harmony with all communities in the world...as a common Muslim... i do respect Jews and Christians as well ! Pray G-d for humanity, peace and preach always good values of Torah as we muslims do like Christians ...We do have to follow our religion as much as we can and in fact we muslims believe Torah & Gospel the Book of G-d...our religion Islam is a peaceful religion...to be very frank it does not encourages violence in the name of religion ! May G-d bless all A'meen ! Remember us in your prayers too !Sorry if i had said anything!
wisdom So speaking up is good to protect... But be wise in your speech.
sorry This article avoids the real issue of "safe spaces" and "trigger warnings"--not offense from crass insults but pearl-clutching histrionics from the dissonance at being confronted with unwanted ideas that are deemed bad because they conflict with the dominant leftist narrative.
sefira is very accomplished with artwork to article match not wanting to mention certain elections, i will hold my piece!
PC - college perspective
Because this question came from a college student, in 1971 I was at OU working on completion of my degree after a stint in the Army.
One of my required subjects in sociology was a class called "minority groups" and was taught by a Jewish professor who happened to be a survivor out of Auschwitz.
Dr. Silverstein started the class on the first day with an exercise; he asked the class to list all the derogatory words we had ever heard to describe other groups ... and filled 3 blackboards! I was the only Yid in the class and "gave myself away" to him when I used some Yiddish words.
I was shocked not only at the size of the list but also learning that words I heard all my life, certainly not offensive in my geographical area, were offensive to others in different areas of the country.
Needless to say, by the time the class was complete, none of us used certain words. Pragmatically, some lessons last a lifetime.
These Words came while all man spoke a common language. The meaning is perfect. Only purity can be measured by man although it contains immense knowledge. A mortal man can only argue the he knows what is pure. Noah brought a few extra animals then he knew he should have onto the Arc.
Please Explain or Reword This Confusing Phrase
"...students can retreat to avoid the overwhelm caused by triggering words and ideas."
I don't understand that phrase. Is "overwhelm" a noun? Is "triggering" here a verb, or used as an adjective describing "words and ideas"? So is someone here triggering (verb) words and ideas, or overwhelming others with words and ideas that are supposed to trigger something?
I am just curious Dear Mr. Shurpin. From you mention of the U.S. Constitution I wonder if you live here in the U.S. Firstly the Constitution does not speak of man being created with natural rights. Not even the Bill of Rights, the Amendments, speak of that, though it does guarantee that the government will not require people to worship in a state sponsored religion. However, the Declaration of Independence does speak of those rights, In fact, it speaks of those rights as coming from our Creator, that those rights are unalienable, coming from G-d after all. the Declaration was the U.S.'s demand for freedom. The Constitution was the blueprint for a gov't to protect that freedom, and to protect the citizens of the U.S. from that same gov't should in become tyrannical against it's people, such as making laws revoking freedom of speech. That first amendment protects three unalienable G-d given rights. To deny one is to deny all. I would say, rather, to those offended souls, "Man Up!" This is life. Blessings
While I appreciate that this article demonstrates the Torah sensitivity towards the use of speech, I think it is dismissive of the concepts of safe spaces and trigger words. If someone was a victim of rape, discussions of rape might be triggering to them by bringing back some of those traumatic memories, requiring hours or days for them to recover their emotional equilibrium. On the other hand, rape is an important issue that must be discussed and addressed in society. Even the victims themselves need a safe space where they can share their emotions and heal without fear of potentially traumatic comments from insensitive but perhaps well-meaning critics. The concept of a safe space is different than the rules you mentioned about not saying things that are unnecessarily damaging, and is not irrelevant.
Thank you for this good, illuminating discussion. As a semi-retired university professor I appreciate it greatly. Let me clarify one thing, though. PC, trigger warnings, and safe spaces have nothing to do with the genuinely hurtful kind of behavior that an observant Jew, and, I should hope, any well-bred, civil human being, should avoid. They are about the advancement of an ideological agenda that is selective, historically mendacious, and without any qualms about hurting those in disagreement with it. It is in fact inimical to Jews, Judaism, and Israel, and intends us and other fee and decent people harm. I should go so far as to say that it is in the service of the Sitra Achra, whether or not its proponents realize it.
Re: K. Knight and Support Groups No, you are not wrong. You need the anonymity to express yourself and your feelings. You are not living in an easy situation and your feelings are real. I'm wishing you well and hope things turn for the better.
A moving target The problem is not speech, but that the definitions of evil and negative are changing and the intent is to change society in a political direction, away from truth. To be politically correct is to lie for the purpose of not triggering fake outrage.
I agree with Brett that "negative" may be too broad a term.
Support groups I belong to a "safe" anonymous online group of wives of alcoholics. We use the anonymous forum to vent our frustrations of our alcoholic husbands and their abuse of alcohol, drugs, us, and our children. We often speak unkindly and painfully truthful of our husbands. Am I breaking Jewish law participating? I honestly feel once I have typed my negative feelings and read agreement that yes, I have reason to be angry, I am freer to bring love and forgiveness to my husband. But now I worry I am wrong.
Maybe understanding paradox and G-d revealing negative and positive might help.
Who uses more negative words than HaShem? 613 revealings of Divine wisdom given in positive form 248 times and negative 365.
A person who understands the value of paradox can hear negative speech with positive outcome.
We must define between evil speech and negative speech.
They are not the same.
Just as Noah had to discern between pure and impure, we must define between evil and negative.

I tried these on a whim. The bar I tried had crunchy nibs in it, and was absolutely amazing.
I tried the Valor dark chocolate 70% with mint.It has a nice subtle refreshing taste of the mint.The dark chocolate is rich,intense and delicious.They have a big selection to choose from with some unique bars.I would love to try the chocolate with added bananas!The ingredients are all natural and the you get a wonderful taste of the cocoa not waxy like many chocolate bars.I highly recommend this chocolate.

Woodsman – When the Morning Comes [mp3]
Denver's experimental psych-ambient band Woodsman are releasing the Mystery Tape ep via Lefse on June 1st. Over the last week I've found myself dazing out to the atmospheric haze of "When the Morning Comes". The band have described their influences as "hazy mountain passes, the cinema of Stan Brakhage, and early 1970's improvisational recordings by Miles Davis". Also check out the beautiful video for the non-ep track "Sunglass" below.
Woodsman will hit the road in support of the new ep. Full dates can be found here.

BEREA, Ohio -- New Cleveland Browns safety Jabrill Peppers got a rude welcome into the National Football League when in the weeks after being selected in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft following a standout career at the University of Michigan, he became the subject of sports talk fodder.
Last week, a now former employee at a local radio station in Cleveland spoke of Peppers being a habitual drug user, stating that he is "on the lean and the molly." "The lean" is a drink containing codeine, Jolly Rancher candy and Sprite, while "molly" is a street name for ecstasy.
"People can say whatever they want to say," Peppers said at rookie minicamp over the weekend. "This is my first time in Cleveland since they brought me out here, so I don't know what she's talking about. I just think people want to say what they say to make stories. I can't do anything about that. I came here to play football and help this great organization get back to prominence."
A Heisman Trophy finalist in 2016, Peppers played nearly everywhere for the University of Michigan Wolverines during the 2016 season, and that versatility led him to becoming the second first-round pick of the Browns in the 2017 NFL Draft last month.
And despite the recent rumors, Peppers is not letting such talk spoil the goal of making it to the NFL.
"No one's going to take this moment away from me," Peppers said. "I don't care what it is. I've worked my whole life to get here. I'm happy to be here. I'm not going to let what people say about me ruin the best moment of my life. Are you kidding me? I've been talked about, hated on my whole life.
"That's the society. I've been pretty much in the spotlight since I've been to Michigan, so I'm built for it. But that's just society. Those who don't like me use things like this to further their agenda and other people speculate. I can only control what I can control, and that's being the best ballplayer and person that I can be."
In three years at Michigan, Peppers made 86 solo tackles and assisted on 33 other stops, including 18.5 for lost yardage with three sacks.
Peppers intercepted one pass and defended 10 others in 12 games for the Wolverines during the 2016 season.
Additionally, Peppers accounted for 167 yards and three touchdowns on 27 carries and a combined total of 570 return yards, as well as one punt-return score last fall.
"That's the only thing they're going to hear from here on out," Peppers said of being talked about for his on-field exploits. "I don't really get into things outside of football because that's outside of my control. Like I said before, I never failed a drug test in my life, never been arrested, so people want to speculate on that for other reasons, which we all know what those reasons are, and so be it.
"I'm just here to be the best person and football player I can be, learn from the vets, the great coaches and the coaching staff and that's what I intend to do."

Maracuja05 (164) Mainz, Rineland-Palatinate, Germany | November 13, 2017
Been here on a trip in 2012. We sat upstairs. Nice atmosphere, ood Service. Enjoyed this place.
Fin (1184) Merton, Oxfordshire, England, England | May 11, 2013
We visited here on Saturday 4th May 2013. We sat in the downstairs front bar which is quite snug, there is a much bigger 'main' bar upstairs, however this was a nice little bar. They had a special 'Jack in the Green' beer which was fine. The atmosphere was pleasant, the pub looks quite a historic place, situated on the main shopping street in the very pleasant old town.
ManVsBeer (2083) Hebden Bridge, England | March 22, 2013| Updated March 13, 2015
Atmospheric pub with is low Tudor style beams and perfectly lit for a very cosy intimate visit any time of year. It is an excellent place for a meal but also for a drink and there is a garden area towards the rear, and an extension into the pedestrian street out front when the weather is good. This is an old world pub through and through but there is also a nautical theme and you'll see pictures or drawings such as the death of Lord Nelson throughout. Shepherd Neame ales are available and is directly opposite another of this brewery's pubs The Anchor.

Wukong Build
Top Lane
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Hello Summoners ! In this build im going to try to show you how to get the max out of WuKong , The Monkey King .Firstly WuKong is a melee dps with great escaping capabilities and that can get in and out of fights very fast .Has great laning potential due to his combo wich i shall explain later on .
Ok here comes the fun part :X .
I use :
With this build i get the max out of lane phase starting with 90 Damage at lvl 1 ~600 Hp and decent Magic Resist + Armour thanks to his nice passive .
You can also try :
Greater Mark of Desolation x9
Greater Quintessence of Desolation x3
This build is a bit more tanky but without the insane damage early on that WuKong is capable of .Of course ArP helps alot and you can consider replacing Last Whisper with a Bloodthirster or a resistance item like Force of Nature .
I strongly recommend the 1st Rune setup mostly because you can get a few kills easily mostly because the opponents ussualy ignore the threat that may come from WuKong .
I take 21-9-0 taking the Armour Penetration
and 4% damage
plus the armour
and magic resist
from the defence tree .
Also you can try 9-21-0 taking Armour Penetration and 4% reduced dmg , this of course if you want him more tanky wich is less helpfull for the team .
Starting Item :
10 Damage 100 Hp and 3% Life Steal it's perfect for a good start .
Item Purchasing Order : ---> ---> ---> ---> ---> ---> ---> ---> ---> .
If the match isn'y over by now you may consider changing with for more damage or with if you need more survability .
CORE Items :
Other acceptable Items :
*Banshee's get's you a few moew seconds to get in and start your burst while Warmog works great with Atma's and has some nice HP regen .
Skill Sequence
Passive :
Q Skill :
W Skill :
E Skill :
R Ultimate :
I max out as fast as i can as it is the biggest source of damage ( except ultimate ) Wukong has .At level 3 you can start harrasing opponents with your epic combo : --> --> .
Alot of players use E --> Q --> W wich is good too but you have a good chance of not landing your Q .The reason why i use Q first is because refreshes your autoattack cooldown so you basicaly can't miss your .
If you are going for the kill your combo changes a bit :
--> --> --> After this your E cd should be refreshed assuring you the kill .
Summoner Spells
Best Summoner Spells :
*This way no one can escape and you can keep your enemy inside your ultimate wich is very important .
Good Summoner Spells : , ,
*Ghost is good for both chasing or escaping .
*Cleanse comes in handy if you think you are beeing held down from starting your burst .
*Ignite is also great against players with massive life steal ( ex. Warwick )
Well..thats mostly all of course you may need some practice with him because it harder than it looks .Anyway it's by far the funniest champ in-game . After decoying and see people throwing Ult's on your clone makes you feel soooo gooood :D .Also in lane phase after decoying at low health you will see people throw out their last bit of mana on your clone making them free kills for your team mates .
Pros / Cons
Pros :
Very hard to kill .
Good damage early and mid game , and even late game if built right .
Very tricky .
You can activate your ultimate and if you think you messed up you can just turn it off by pressing R again .
You look good even when you are dead :X :D . ( like a meditating buddhist )
Cons :
CD dependant .

Emma Chase, New York Times bestselling author of the Tangled Series and Legal Briefs Series, returns with the first of three sizzling standalone books about a family of racy, irresistible Royals.
Nicholas Arthur Frederick Edward Pembrook, Crowned Prince of Wessco, aka "His Royal Hotness", is wickedly charming, devastatingly handsome, and unabashedly arrogant—hard not to be when people are constantly bowing down to you.
Then, one snowy night in Manhattan, the prince meets a dark haired beauty who doesn't bow down. Instead, she throws a pie in his face.
Nicholas wants to find out if she tastes as good as her pie, and this heir apparent is used to getting what he wants.
Dating a prince isn't what waitress Olivia Hammond ever imagined it would be.
There's a disapproving queen, a wildly inappropriate spare heir, relentless paparazzi, and brutal public scrutiny. While they've traded in horse drawn carriages for Rolls Royces and haven't chopped anyone's head off lately—the royals are far from accepting of this commoner.
But to Olivia—Nicholas is worth it.
Nicholas grew up with the whole world watching, and now Marriage Watch is in full force. In the end, Nicholas has to decide who he is, but more importantly, who he wants to be: a King… or the man who gets to love Olivia forever.
OMG, I love this book!
Funny, romantic and seriously steamy with a unique, realistic, chemistry-filled, fun, sweet, sexy love story that absolutely captivated me. I was literally squeeing with glee, and bouncing up and down in my chair while I read. This is Emma Chase at her best, I absolutely loved it!
Prince Nicholas Arthur Frederick Edward Pembrook is the next in line to the Royal crown of Wessco. 'His Royal Hotness' is a favourite of his people (and of the worldwide media)- confident, gorgeous, and charming, he carries his responsibilities well, hiding his wicked sense of humour and keeping his bad boy tendencies far away from the watchful eye of the public. The man is used to getting whatever, and whoever, he wants, but while on a visit to the United States he meets his match in Olivia Hammond – the first woman he has met who doesn't fall at his feet. Challenge accepted.
Olivia is a hard-working girl, trapped in a seemingly never-ending monotony of running her family's coffee shop. She has no idea who Nicholas is when he enters her store, but he doesn't make the best of impressions – even though he's the hottest man she's ever seen with an accent that makes her knees weak. He offends her, she shoves a pie in his face, and that's the end of it. Until he comes back – asking for forgiveness and turning her world on its head.
She has no idea who I am … Her ignorance is rather…thrilling. There are no expectations, no hidden agendas, no reasons to pretend – what she sees is what she gets. And all she sees is me.
Oh my God, I cannot express my love for these two enough. Individually, they are fantastic characters, but together they are absolutely sensational! Every moment of their relationship is full of chemistry and even though their situation is unique, there is a feeling of reality about them together – I could feel everything that was happening between them and it felt so right.
From their initial flirtation…
"Good God, why not?" I ask, horrified. "That's a bloody sin."
"A sin?"
"You're stunning, obviously clever – you should date often, and preferably with a man who knows how it's done." I rest my palm on my chest. "Coincidentally, I happen to be fantastic at it. What are the odds?"
…to the exhilaration of exploring their chemistry …
"This is crazy," I whisper against him. "It's crazy, right? It's not just me?"
Nicholas shakes his heads. "Bloody insane." His hands are on my ass again – a final quick grab. "And fucking fantastic."
…to falling for each other and acknowledging that what they have is something spectacular.
She straightens, and runs her finger over her lips, gazing down at me. "Did you feel that?"
The spark, the electricity. The desire that feeds on itself, relishing the relief of contact but always wanting more.
She takes my hand and places it over her breast – where her heartbeat throbs wildly in her chest. "And do you feel this?"
My own chest pounds with the same rhythm.
"Some people go their whole lives without feeling that."
I relished every single moment of this love story as Nicholas and Olivia give themselves over to everything that is developing between them, and I fell in love right alongside them.
But every romance has its ups and downs – imagine the added complication that royalty brings to the equation! Nicholas has a life that Olivia can only imagine, including royal responsibilities, security detail, constant scrutiny by the press and public, a playboy younger brother who has no intention of calming down his party lifestyle, and a stern, feisty grandmother determined to marry him off to a member of the aristocracy. With their lives being so different, and with Nicholas' responsibilities threatening to crush everything they have found together, how can they ever have the happy ending that they both want so badly?
"I love you, Olivia. I love you. And I don't know how to do this. I don't know how to let you go."
This book is a wild ride of fun, flirting, totally hot (and slightly dirty) sexy time, love, and the dramas of family and a life of responsibility. And it's all absolutely brilliant. The love story is passionate, intense and fun yet still plausible, the drama is well written and (again) very plausible, and the side characters bring so much to the story – I loved the dynamics between the characters (the Queen Prince Henry in particular were a highlight), and Nicholas and Olivia's siblings and friends are an absolute riot!
I also really love the way the royal life was written, and that we get to see the 'other' side of the story which I imagine is all too accurate. I thought it was handled really well by the characters, and by Emma Chase in telling her story, and the love story intermingled within that world was wonderfully done.
I cannot gush enough about this book. I devoured it, I was captivated from start to finish and I want to read it all over again! I can't wait for Henry's book up next.
5 massive stars!

She's even lovelier than I remembered, than I dreamed. Delicate midnight tendrils frame a face that belongs in a museum—with stunning dark sapphire eyes that should be commemorated in vibrant oils and soft watercolors. If Helen launched a thousand ships, this girl could raise a thousand hard-ons.
She's prettily made, the top of her head coming only to my chin, but fantastically curvy. Great full tits that strain the buttons of a wrinkled white blouse, shapely hips in a black skirt tapering to a tiny waist I could wrap my hands around and toned legs encased in sheer black tights finish off the whole package very nicely.
An unfamiliar anxiousness fizzes like soda in my gut.
"The door was open," I explain.
"It's broken."
Logan flicks at the lock. Security is his life, so a broken lock would annoy him like a puzzle with
the final piece missing.
"What do you want?"
She has no idea who I am. It's in the defensive way she holds herself and the accusatory note in her voice. Some women try to pretend they don't recognize me, but I can always tell. Her ignorance is rather…thrilling. There are no expectations, no hidden agendas, no reasons to pretend—what she sees is what she gets. And all she sees is me.
My throat is suddenly a barren wasteland. I swallow, but it's difficult.
"Well, he's desperate for some pie." I hook my thumb at Simon. "And I…wanted to apologize for the other evening. I don't normally act that way. I was on a bit of bender…"
"In my experience, people don't do things when they're drunk that they wouldn't do normally."
"No, you're right. I would've thought all those things, but I never would've said them out loud." I move closer, slowly. "And if I'd been sober…my opening bid would've been much higher."
"She crosses her arms. "Are you trying to be cute?"
"No. I don't have to try…it just sort of happens."

When I was 14 I found out that I was 14 weeks pregnant with my child. It was very unexpected and I was shocked. I didnt know how to tell my boyfriend at the time, but when I did it was a mistake. He wanted nothing to do with his child so I was completely alone. I spoke to one person who I absolutely trust and thats my health teacher. He brought up the topic about adoption and i never wouldve planned on going through with it. some people see it as getting the "easy" way out of your pregnancy, but after I thought long and hard about it, i knew it was the best decision for the child. making this decision was one of the hardest things ive ever had to do in my entire life, but knowing i gave the baby a better life is all that matters to me. yes i still see her about every 2 months. dont be scared of adoption. think it through and just know if you think its the best, go through with it.

Hey im Stephan ( Yeah a guy ) Short and Sweet My GF and i got pregnant in beginning of High School. Matric year. We finished school with Degree Endorsements that year, our Son was born in February that following year. Did not get the opportunity to start studying like the rest of the Kids. I had to work in the beginning. So now 4 Years later that GF is my Fiance,we have a beautifull baby boy. We are both still studying towards our degrees which you can do if you really try, yeah late nights is an understatement but let me give you an perspective... We are young parents, both sucessfull careers.Now most of my old school friends either still living with parents not studying or left studying, not working they have no clue what to do with their lives. Dont think being young makes a kid a burden... you work harder because its not easy just to give up now, you fight for what you want, that makes you way ahead of everyone else. Yeah so i hope you get what im trying to say here.

Hey, I was a real tomboy growing up because my mom passed away and I didn't have her there to show me the girly things, so I didn't know about all the risks of pregnancy and so I tuned most of it out. I know crazy right! But I didn't see a need for me to know. well now I have 2 one year old boys (twins). If I had aborted them I would have not got to seem them take their first steps last week and I feel so blessed. I have to tell you though I did get a beach ball tummy... well a little more and the horrible sickness and the cravings. I am so happy that I now have 2 happy healthy boys :) and that they can be kids and grow up and be themselves. I don't regret being a teen mom... I really don't it just gives me more years to be around my boys :). of course my family didn't approve but eventually after coming to me with my ultrasounds they adjusted. My boyfriend was shocked but he was so happy, he never missed an appointment. I really hope you all enjoyed my story yours truly me.
I was 16 when i got pregnant in december 2013. It was planned but not really. When we tried we didnt get pregnant then when we didnt i ended up pregnant. My bf was happy and i was too but scared. Neither of our fams where happy about it.. everyone got it in my bfs head for abortion.. i fought so hard to change his mind cause i wouldve done it to make him happy but i didnt want to go through doing that to life.. i wanted to keep the baby. We went to plan parenthood and everything for the abortion :/ a lady was out there protesting about it and took us to a free clinic to get an ultrasound. He seen the baby move and was happy but his mind was still set on abortion.. the second ultrasound we went to get the baby moved again and he got happy and said lets do adoption:) i was happy with that decision cause we got to keep life.. later on of thinking about he finally said he doesnt want no one taking care of his baby but us and to keep it :) we found out it was a girl and now shes almost 7m(:
I had just left home approx. one month before I became pregnant so I had a bitter relationship with my family. About a week after I was quite positive I was actually pregnant, I got a ride over to my parents & had my mother take me to the hospital because I was real ill (which I was). I was 16 at the time and so the doctor had asked me if I was pregnant because if I was then I would be assigned a room with the adults (18+). With which I replied "I'm not sure"...so he proceeded to give me a pregnancy test...followed with my results. My mother began to cry right infront of the doctor. But over those 9 months I rebuilt a new relationship between my parents & my fiance's parents in which I can't even fathom on how greatful I am for them & all of their support after all the trouble we had put everyone through. Trust me,pregnancy is a very emotional & crazy ride to take. But, it doesn't have to be the end of the road for you. My daughter is our saving grace . Get where you need to be in life.
Hi. I am 17 years old, I am a Senior in high school right now. My baby girl is 1 (16 months). I found out I was pregnant the day before I was 16 years old. I was 16 weeks along. I got to hear her heart beat the day we found out, My mother and I just cried. I knew my life would change forever. We talked about Adoption, but I couldn't do it. I fell in love hearing her heart beat. I did my whole Junior year online, and most of my senior classes. Now here I am, scheduled to graduate May 17th, 2015. I could not have done any of this without the support of my family. I plan on going to College to get my degree in Psychology. I would like to be a counselor. Nothing is Impossible if you have the right mindset.

Hi! I am 15 years old, a sophomore in high school, and a cheerleader. And I just found out I was pregnant yesterday. The father of the baby is my ex boyfriend. He currently lives with me and we are very very close. He doesn't know about the pregnancy yet, and neither do my parents. The only people who know are my best friends, and on 4/16/15 they are going with me to the health department to confirm the pregnancy. Yesterday my best friend took me to Walmart and bought me a test, and I took it in a gas station bathroom. It obviously came out positive!!!! I'm definitely scared, but now I am also very very excited!!! I already know that I am keeping the baby, and if the father or my parents won't support me in my decision and be there for me, I have plenty of people who will be there. If you are pregnant or think you might be pregnant, find support. Because I know if I didn't have the massive amount of support I do have, I would be terrified. Find someone to talk to and confide in.

Hi, my name is Tina I got pregnant when I was 15. My son Adrian is now 6 months old and a happy healthy little boy. I got accepted into the University of Akron at 15 and am now turning 17 about to graduate with my degree in radiology. Anything is possible ladies!! Keep your head up:)

This is my story, I was 16 when I got into a car accident and found out I was pregnant. My boyfriend of 3 years and I got the new in the emergancy room. We never thought of abortion. Although we made a mistake, we knew we Could get though it. I stayed in school although bEing pregnant in high school was tough with all the rude comments and stares but I made it. And after my son was born I was so glad we chose life. he is perfect. going through school with a child definitely was not easy but I wouldn't change my decision for anything. I was very lucky to have a partner to be with me through it all. This is my story, I hope you are inspired by it.

At thirteen, I found out I was pregnant. Terrified of what my parents would think and because I was only in 8th grade, I hid the entire pregnancy. I was 38 weeks when my parents found out and though they were disappointed and worried, they accepted it. I then had my first daughter on February 18th, 2013. Now, at fifteen, I just had my second baby girl on March 24th, 2015. When I found out I was pregnant I had just moved. I had found out I was pregnant when I was already 26 weeks along. I was scared because I had just finished volleyball season and I thought it could've hurt her. And I was disappointed in myself. I was already raising a toddler. I couldn't possibly be able to raise two kids, even with help from my parents. So I thought long and hard about adoption, but I couldn't move forth with it. I mean, I couldn't see myself giving my child away. She was MY child. I was going to find a way to make it. I put all my faith in God and I'm ma king it, day by day, step by step. Now I am.

Hey I was 17 when I found out I was expecting my first baby. I came from an extremely strict home and my parents were so distraught and dissapointed. My mom even kicked me out the house. I was already in a (live on campus) trade school in upstate ny she said I was not welcomed back home. I went to better myself and to be independent away from my strict parents. After 6 months of me starting I met a guy. We dated until my 18th bday. Then I found out I was preggo 2 months later. I was afraid bexause I had only knew this guy for less than a year and I wasn't finished in school. I didn't belive in abortions and I felt so scred and lonely. After I told my bf he was happy and he was there every step of the way for me. My mom eventually got over the anger and accepted her granchild. I felt so happy to have support from my family and the babys father. I graduated and became crtified in medical office support and now I'm enrolled in school at the university of NYC getting my (certified nursing assistant liscense. I had a beautiful baby girl (Bethany Lynn) on August 26. And me and her father are going on 3 years together and engaged.

My name is mariah and i am 16 years old.I am about 4 months pregnant, and although I was extremely dissapointed in myself when I found out I was pregnant i've decided to keep my baby. Adoption is a great option but sense I have tremendous family support I can make things work out. I am still currently with my boyfriend and we just got an appartment. My mother denies she'll let me move out but my house is way to small to add another baby in it. I plan to get my license sense the apartment I plan to move into is like 10 minutes out of the town I grew up in. With my license I will be able to finish high school. My plan for while i'm in school is my child will attend a day care, and I will pick her up when I get out of school. I'm graduating a year early to make sure I finish. I plan to attend college and give my baby the best possible shot at life!

This is my story...I am [under 18] years old and pregnant with my boyfriend's baby.I went to his house one evening telling my parents (who had no idea I had a boyfriend) that I was round a friend's house. My boyfriend spiked my coke and I didn't suspect a thing when I woke up fully dressed on his sofa. It was only when I started getting pregnancy symptoms that I realised, and took three tests, all clearly positive. I told my two best friends who really supported me, then eventually went to a teacher at my school, who referred my friend and myself to a teacher with more authority. When I was asked if I was pregnant, I lied saying I thought I may be imagining things, and the teachers haven't asked me since. I'm now 2-and-a-half months pregnant and a bump is starting to show, I am constantly getting back pains and cramps in my stomach. When I told my boyfriend he said he never wanted to see me again. I was really scared, but eventually I figured that I had to tell someone who could help and give me advise. The counsellor who is helping is giving me all the different options, but I know in my heart that I have already made up my mind; I will not have an abortion. After all, this baby has done nothing wrong, and I believe that this is what God wanted or it wouldn't have happened. At first I felt very alone, too scared to tell anyone, but I see now that I needed this support. By telling you this, I want to send out the message that, should you be in a similar situation, you are not alone, there is a lot of help out there for you. I told a responsible adult, rather than trying to tackle an unwanted teenage pregnancy on my own. This will change my life, but everything happens for a reason. I hope you learn from or are inspired by my story, and know that no matter what happens, there is always a way to get through it.

When i was 19 and in my sophomore year at college i found out i was pregnant.When i broke the news to my loving fiance that i have been with for four years he insisted we keep him. I agreed, but when i told my mother she was devastated and believed that i had ruined everything, my good grades and dreams. She convinced me to have an abortion but i couldn't my boyfriend because he would be seriously hurt. So i went behind his back and my families telling everyone i had lost the child. Everyone was so upset i was given special treatment in everything. i wish i could go back and tell the truth. My fiance is wanting to get married but i dont know if i can because i lied about something that i shouldn't have. Tell the truth.

This morning, while preparing to leave Hobart for here (via Melbourne), the team couldn�t have missed the banner headline in the top daily there, The Mercury: �Self Destruction.�
The headline didn�t say anything else. There was no need. And, if the headline won�t quickly be forgotten so too, perhaps, the Kapil-fired admonishment.
For the first time on this trip, probably, Kapil did some plain-talking. It wasn�t a formal team meeting, but everyone would have heard the coach�s words, in the Bellerive Oval dressing room.
It�s not just a coach�s frustration, though � everybody back home would be finding it awfully hard to accept this terrible run: One win in a side game (against New South Wales) and one draw (versus Tasmania) with as many as nine defeats � two side matches, three Tests and four one-dayers.
�The tour isn�t over, the tournament isn�t over... We�ve got some hope,� reminded captain Sachin Tendulkar, but just about everybody in these parts is convinced this team is sans spunk. In a country where spirit is everything, that�s equivalent to receiving a third-class rating.
In fact, should Pakistan put it across Australia at the MCG, tomorrow, India will need to win all four remaining games and, even then, can only hope to pip Pakistan by virtue of a better net run rate. As of now, India are laggards there as well.
Actually, the team appears to have given up and even some of the seniors are now focussing on the home series against South Africa.
Greg Chappell, for one, feels the Indians could win one or two matches but, given the despondency, even that seems the ask of the season.
The poor performances, notwithstanding, the Indians continue to be a mega-hit. Sachin, for instance, was mobbed at the airport this afternoon � not for the first time, and it certainly won�t stop here.
Kapil and vice-captain Sourav Ganguly, too, are very high on the popularity-scale.
Meanwhile Sachin, Don of the present era, is expected to either call on the original Don, Sir Donald Bradman, or at least speak to him this time around.
Though he wanted to, Sachin could do neither during the Adelaide Test, six weeks ago. The Indians will be in town till the morning of January 27, when they depart for Perth, after two back-to-back games on the preceding days.
Tickets for Tuesday�s India-Pakistan match are available but the �Australia Day� game (coinciding with our Republic Day), against Australia, is a sell-out.
The onus will be on Sachin�s team to give the packed holiday turnout, at the Adelaide Oval, their money�s worth.
jeev at joint 16th
Jeev Milkha Singh shot a one-under 71 in the second round today to be joint 16th and make the cut in the Mercedes Benz South Africa Open in Johannesburg today.
Over the years, however, this inspirational batsman and former captain who features in Australia�s Team of the Century, has followed Indian cricket rather keenly. And, India�s current performance � if we can call it that � has left him disappointed.
�I think the Indians got intimidated by Australia in the Test series and, as a result, are short of confidence in the Carlton and United Series,� Greg told The Telegraph this afternoon.
Greg, who is in his second year as South Australia�s coach, added: �I would, without a second thought, have backed Australia to win the Test series. At the same time, with such a solid batting line-up and a reasonable attack, I had expected India to cope better with conditions...�
According to Greg, the Indians� inability to withstand �relentless pressure,� in the Test series, suggests they weren�t quite there in the mind. �In this on-going series, too, there isn�t a big enough commitment to succeed.�
That�s a strong indictment, but definitely well-deserved.
Of course, it�s unfair to single any one batsman, but fact remains that Rahul Dravid�s failure (93 runs in three Tests; 105 in the first four one-day matches) hurt India�s cause appreciably. It has been the mother of all let-downs.
�Dravid�s one of the top-line batsmen, even the opposition knows that... Initially, I did get the impression he was working hard to get the better of the conditions, the mental effort was certainly there. However, Dravid got too concerned about survival and forgot batting is about making runs as well,� Greg opined.
He added: �Really, batsmen must balance the two... Batting isn�t just seeing out two hours or two sessions, it�s about scoring runs. That has to be a batsman�s top priority.�
India need to win all four remaining games, to give themselves a possible shot at the best-of-three finals. But few, if any at all, are willing to back India.
�It�s too stiff an ask... Yes, India could win one or two matches, but not all four. For that to happen, they need to defeat Australia twice but, thus far, they haven�t looked a team which can beat them. Pakistan can, and they�ve done so, but not India,� Greg remarked.
He added: �Confidence apart, at the moment, India are a bit short both on batting and bowling.�
Would he have picked Mohammed Azharuddin, one-day cricket�s most experienced and successful batsman?
Greg, a former selector, preferred not to commit himself: �Look, I�m too far removed from the goings-on in Indian cricket to say anything either way... While there is a time and place for experience, there also comes a time when you begin looking at the future.�
Azhar is 36. Greg, by the way, has been one of Azhar�s idols.
Speaking about Pakistan�s resurgence after being wiped out in the Tests, Greg pointed out: �Basically Pakistan is a very talented team, but while it couldn�t handle the relentless pressure in the Tests, that slight relaxation � which is inevitable in one-day cricket � has given the freedom and space to play what comes naturally.�
Greg listed three factors for Australia�s exceptional run: A solid side; Steve Waugh�s leadership and the ability to sustain pressure which chokes the opposition.
�I was confident Australia would win at least four of the six home Tests (three each against Pakistan and India), but six out of six has been fantastic. The team has much depth and variety and the selectors have been picking players good at fielding, too...
�There�s that look about this team which suggests it only means business and, yes, Steve�s captaincy has played a role. For Steve, the World Cup was the proverbial turning point and he�s got the confidence to lead his own way. In any case, Steve leads by example.�
Reacting to his selection in the ACB�s Team of the Century, Greg said, emotionally: �No accolade will ever mean more... It�s difficult describing how I feel being put in the same bracket as all those greats...�
But would his XII (with Allan Border as 12th man) have been any different? �I�ve got no argument with the selection. However, some of the stalwarts who played in the first-half of the last century probably didn�t get the (selectors�) support they deserved.�
It was obvious Greg had somebody like Victor Trumper in mind.
Incidentally, Greg recently declined an offer from Glamorgan to coach the County side in the English summer. �It would have been too much... Frankly, I couldn�t have done justice to both jobs � at South Australia and Glamorgan.�
Years after quitting, Greg continues to be different.
This was conveyed to the team management last evening, in Hobart itself, by the physio-cum-physical trainer Andrew Leipus. The team management then �requested� the Board for a replacement.
Till late tonight, though, manager Mahendra Bhargava had not heard from the Board. He also could not say whether a specific replacement had been sought.
[According to a PTI report from Mumbai, the Board has turned down the request. Board secretary Jaywant Lele has been quoted as saying �T. Kumaran was the preferred replacement.�]
�Leipus informed that Agarkar is only 80%-85% fit ... He may be fit for the Perth matches, but is out for the games on Tuesday and Wednesday ... Whether or not he will stay back, for the rest of the tour, is something the Board will decide,� Bhargava told The Telegraph.
Agarkar got injured during the match against Australia, at the MCG last week. Incidentally, the team already has an extra player in V. V. S. Laxman.
At Town ground, Mishra hit the sixes off off-spinner Sandip Ganguly during his innings of unbeaten 101. His knock included four fours and 11 sixes.
Subrata Banerjee took six wickets in East Bengal�s win.
GS Atwal & Co, represented by Govind Atwal, Harmeet Sahney, Eckhardt Walner and SG Deb, tallied 123 points to win the title.
MR Exports (121) and Visa International (115) were placed second and third respectively.
Lt Col. PK Singh and Wing Cdr Mandeep Singh, with 76 points, won the Wills Favourite Foursome.
Allied Forces was the hottest of all winners in the day�s feature, the 2,000m American Express Indian Champion Cup, sponsored by the American Express Bank. At the wire, the six-year-old Darius Byramji-trained gelding, by Razeen out of Gourgandine, was a shade over six lengths clear of the Vijay Singh-trainee, Super Sunrise who made all the running until challenged by winner at the top of the straight.
Vijay, nevertheless, led in his three winners through Alterezza, Aquaria and Ocean Sunset. The last named horse was, however, the most hard-pressed to win from Kargil Soldier.
The day also had its share of tragedy in the baby race, the Galstaun Cup. Absolute Performer fractured his shoulder and the Richard Alford-trainee had to be put down.

Preppers' PING!!
Every gun you buy at a gun store now comes with a sales receipt and a background check telling the authorities who you are what you bought and what to look for when they come to grab those guns.
If I cannot buy from an individual with none of this I wouldn't buy.
Went to Walmart yesterday. They had only a couple of .22LR AR clones left, and they sold while I was there. They had no .223 ammo.
Working on it about 2 weeks too late though. Will sell back one of the lowers I think to fund the rest I need to build. Any suggestions on best place to learn to build one?;-)
I can neither confirm nor deny that in the last week I may or may not have purchased $4000 worth of new firearms
...and then promptly lost them off the side of my boat.
Santa is bringing me a 9mm carbine.
Not an AR or AK, but it is a scarey looking black gun. Can't pick it up until Jan 2nd. I'm already shopping for hi-cap mags for it.
I think this quote from the article sort of says it all;
"The Federal government has literally purchased billions of rounds of ammunition in the last two years. Coupled with the riot gear and cross-training of local law enforcement and military for domestic policing and detention operations, many believe they are gearing up for something big.
"Moreover, the same government that is obviously mobilizing for some undisclosed future threat, is simultaneously taking steps to disarm American citizens."
LaPierre should get a commission from the gunstores for waking up a lot of the sheeple!
I'm pretty sure the top three photos are from the Florida Gun Exchange store in Holly Hill, Florida. Great store with very knowledgeable staff.
I was browsing at Cheaper Than Dirt and all of their bulk ammo for .223 and 5.56 is gone except for tracer rounds.
I can tell you I will voluntarily hand over that rifle.

Thought it was a strict no beard policy... Lol
Helpers are here in feeders too
Not for helpers anymore. The only time any sort of management sees them is during hire. They tell they need to shave and never see them again. Then we see them on road and tell them not to worry about it. It's not like they're sticking around anyway.
Doctor note stating that your skin it too sensitive to shave often will take care of that.
somebody belongs to the ups teamsters facebook page...
Kid would probably be better than most helpers I've had in the past.
No joke- I had a helper a few years ago the weighed almost 400 lbs. I never had to worry about being in the back sorting and not knowing the he was back in the truck!
Who hires these people?
The guys make 10 buck an hour, I don't work them like UPS works me, like a dog. He shows up on time, goes a decent speed, not running, staying steady, and keeping his head on a swivel for dogs, cars, and me to pass him the next stop. I don't need a track star or a masochist.

Mariah Carey fan, Chad Perez, (who's probably still recovering from this moment) casually asked if he could sing to the star. He proceeded to sing a few bars from her hit "Heartbreaker." Carey seems into it while listening and then joins him on the chorus at the end. Perez loses it.
Fans, prepare to be sick with jealousy.
Perez's moment has received hundreds of tweets

Just when I thought we might be having another quiet week (I mean, other than that "New York Comic Con 2016" thing that coverage begins for tomorrow), a couple of long-awaited items have finally been solicited for release. We first saw the Kaiyodo Spider-Man Revoltech teased many, many months ago, but now he's finally ready to swing in–the Revoltech Spider-Man figure goes up for order later this week!
Hundreds of figures of ol' web-head have been released over the years with varying degrees of articulation, but this year's award for best-articulated Spider-Man figure looks like it's destined to go to the Yamaguchi Revoltech Spider-Man!
While the way that some of the ball-joints on the limbs of this figure look are rather blatant and ugly, I'm not sure that we've ever seen a Spider-Man with as much flexibility as this one!
The crawling poses that you can get out of this Revoltech Amecomic Spider-Man figure are downright amazing ("spectacular!"/"sensational")!
But where this figure really shines–besides the extreme range-of-motion of his articulation scheme–is the accessories! Kaiyodo is really spoiling us in the accessories department with this Spider-Man figure, and has actually included some that I've never seen before with a Spidey figure.
While I initially stared blankly at what looked like a small chunk of a figure stand, looking at the rest of the photos I realized that the plastic loopy included with this figure is actually a magnetic clasp to allow Revoltech Spider-Man to climb up surfaces vertically! Now there's an ingenious pack-in!
But just as creative is the fact that not only does this Spidey come with six interchangeable hands, he's also got six interchangeable eyes, allowing for a ton of expressiveness. This will make for a great Humberto Ramos Spider-Man action figure!
The figure is rounded out with an assortment of long and short web-lines, including one that Peter can "really" swing from.
The MSRP on this figure overseas is set at 6,372 Japanese yen, which is equivocal to about $62 USD. Of course, since this is an import-only figure, U.S. collectors will have to pay a bit more in actuality to get their hands on this superb Spidey.
Ordinarily I might balk at $60+ for "another Spider-Man", but this particular release comes with so many cool extras that I just don't think I can resist. Love those expressive eyes and the magnetic clasp!
The Kaiyodo Revoltech Spider-Man action figure will be up for order later this week, and is expected to be released in January 2017. But as Kaiyodo does not have a license to distribute their Marvel figures in the United States, you'll have to grab one of the limited amount of BBTS pre-orders for Spidey or import him from overseas yourself if you want one.
What are your impressions of the Spider-Man Revoltech based off of these finalized official images, Marvel collectors? Are you okay with the stylized look of the figure if it allows maximum flexibility, or is the articulation on this Spidey just too obvious for him to fit in with your collection?
