Manningham Benching Sums Up Problems with 2007 Team
But no matter what it is, in a nutshell, such stupid behavior is precisely why this supposed preseason top 5 team is an ugly 3-2. When one of your star players thinks the rules don't apply to him, it's just another example of a team that seemed to think that it was "owed" success this year instead of grabbing it.
Manningham was supposed to a leader. An example. Yet he's played as if he's just biding his time until the next NFL draft. And in my opinion, such a personality is like finding one cockroach in your house: there's no way in hell that's the only one.
Furthermore, if he started the season with such an attitude, if he really cared, one would have thought the disastrous start to Michigan's 2007 campaign would have been a wake up call. A cold slap in the face to get his shit together. Instead, a suspension six games in seems to indicate just the opposite.
What a shame and a disgrace.
When teammates such as Mike Hart are giving 100% each and every play, Manningham should be embarrassed. No wonder he's still wearing #86 instead of Michigan's coveted #1 jersey as many expected this season. And it looks like he never will.

No matter what you may say about Lloyd, he's got class - and expects his players to have it, too. I'm not pleased that Manningham got himself benched, but I AM pleased that Lloyd continues to enforce team rules.

and to think many of us thought Arrington was the screw up.

Well said. Arrington actually sounds like he is somewhat intelligent, considering what I heard from the press conference. And he had been talking to guys like Braylon and Woodson. That shows some humility and a willingness to learn more. I haven't heard too many things like that about Manningham.
There is a good reason that Mike Hart is captain. He is talented, no doubt, but he never stops trying. Now he's a Michigan Man.

it's weird how most of your suspensions seem to be against MAC schools. crazy luck i guess

First off, we have no idea why Manningham is getting benched.
What we do know is his play has been far from stellar this year. If he was planning on leaving for the NFL, he better unpack his bags because he has shown he's not ready for the NFL.

If it came to Lloyd's attention that Manningham violated team rules this week, then yes, Lloyd is showing some class in benching him for the very next game. If the coaching staff/school found out about it weeks ago, I would have thought waiting a few weeks for a cupcake game to bench a guy is similar to the programs run by Urban, Papa Bowden, or similar programs. Not knowing any of the details, I'd like to think there is a classy spot still in the game somewhere and give Lloyd the benefit of the doubt.

Sru --
you're right.. we do seem to have great luck there, sorta like 2 day suspensions for trying to buy a hooker.

LOL. weird how? weird like Boone's OMVI conviction, for which he never missed a single play? ran "laps" as a punishment?
- October 03, 2007 9:20 AM
- srudoff said...
surrounded - which excuse on your list are YOU using now?
chicago - henton is still suspended from playing in games, not sure where those 2 days came from
you guys sound like us now - someone gives a little barb about your team and everyone gets all defensive :)

- lovinum said...
Whatever he did according to the law, he compounded that by letting down his team and fans. Kudos to Lloyd and the coaching staff for taking the necessary measures.
The bottom line is that Manningham has underperformed this season, his "worm" at Penn State was embarrassing, and he better get it together b/c we need him down the stretch.
Oh, and "Surrounded," unfortunately Srudoff takes this round...

Srudoff has it all wrong. For UM fans to sound just like OSU fans, we'd have to get "all defensive" in the comment sections of the OSU blogs that we read every day...obsessively...like crazed stalkers in the night...

- surrounded in columbus said...
sorry, i'll contest your score keeping.
what are you talking about "excuses"?
who made any excuse about mario being sat for a game? he's benched. that's that.
you questioned the timing of the suspension of one of our starting players as suspicious.
i pointed out that switzer doesn't sit your starters for any games, even ones like Boone, who was convicted.
don't see where that's making any excuse for manningham, or the timing of the suspension.
but if you think so, have fun w/ it

Tressel didn't start T. Smith for the Texas game in 05 (the most important game OSU played that year). He was the quarterback that gave us the best chance to win (obvious to anyone who's witnessed Smith-Zwick competition) and he wasn't the starter b/c he fucked up (that was on top of suspending him 2 games).
So, what was that about Tressel not disciplining his players?
But, unlike Sru i won't question the timing of Mario's suspension. The coach knows what's best for one of his players and the team. It's sad that he has to bench one of his top playmakers b/c of attitude, of all things.

- Katie said...
Sad. We of course do not know the whole story, or should we, so we should be careful here. Just sayin'.
I guess I should be used to the "fight" that ensues in each comment section of OSU and Michigan trying to one up each other. Do Michigan fans go to OSU blogs and do the same thing? I just find it curious.
- October 03, 2007 2:07 PM
- Hemlock Philosopher said...
Smith sat because he took money from boosters and got caught. I doubt Manningham's transgressions went so far. If he took money (and got caught like Smith), I'd bet 10-1 he'd be kicked off the team. Katie - Michigan fans are only obsessed with Michigan, so I doubt there are many Michigan trolls on the Ohio blogs :-)

The difference is that there really aren't any Ohio State blogs out there that spend most of their time poking fun at Michigan. They mostly concentrate on the Buckeyes. This blog is about 20% Michigan 40% college football, 40% Ohio State content wise. It's been better a little bit lately but historically there's been more OSU stuff posted here than Michigan stuff.
I would guess that if someone created a blog that made fun of Michigan regularly, they'd get a number of UM fans that would feel the need to retort. I'm just guessing but if you head over to Bucknuts, there are plenty of Michigan posters over there (especially last year when you guys were good).
Anyway, I post here in good fun. My best friend is a Michigan fan - in fact he flew up to Chicago this weekend from Atlanta and I got tickets to UM-Northwestern (wore my OSU AJ Hawk jersey to the chargrin to many UM fans around me). Almost got to see an upset but talent won in the end.

this is just like the Henton thread. blog pointed out he was arrested for something. i pointed out lesueur was for the same thing. out came your list of excuses. i wasn't making excuses any more than you are now but you took the time to make your cute little list so i guess it was ok.

Granted, we have no idea what Manningham did, but I think it's funny that he's suspended for the game, and Urban Meyer has yet to decide whether Tony Joiner will play on Saturday. http://www.tboblogs.com/index.php/sports/comments/listen-to-calls-to-police-from-joiner-incident/

What are you, the great defender of Ohio State? Policing this blog to "right" something in your mind?
As for the OSU content, you need to say something to justify your actions. When Michigan lost to Oregon, I'm guessing there wasn't a Michigan site out there harder on the team than us, right here.
So it's not poking Michigan that bothers Michigan fans, it's doing with a sense of humor and the intentions behind it. You are like the Drew Sharp of commentors and if you can't see that, I can't help you.
This post/thread is a prime example: what on earth does it have to do with Ohio State? Answer: Nothing. It's a post RIPPING Michigan. Taking one of our star players to task. So what do you do? You come in and leave a dick comment.
And yes, your comment IS just like the Henton thing. As somebody pointed out there when I posted that piece, it was BECAUSE HE WAS AN OSU PLAYER SPORTING A MUSTACHE. Had he not had the mustache, I doubt I'd have even done something on it. Of course, that might take a sense of humor to figure it out.
Look, I welcome Ohio State fans here. We have a lot that add to the value of the comments and thus this blog. And some of our best contributors are Bucks, sending us links and tips about the very stories that seem to bother you so much. Why? Because they get they have a sense of humor.
Did you have a problem with a Michigan blog devoting its entire day the other day to poking fun at Florida and its fans? Maybe you better go alert some Gator fans so they can police the site for their team. I bet no Gator blogs did the same the other day. I guess I'm obsessed. Or maybe, just maybe, it could be - when trying to crank out material for a blog year round - you take the stories where you can get them. That day, we got the Gator link, which led to another, voila - Gator Monday.
If suddenly five MSU readers sent us five funny or interesting stories tonight, guess what you might see tomorrow? I site now "obsessed" with MSU. Crazy how that works, huh?
As for no Ohio State blogs making fun of Michigan, apprently you didn't look to hard after our first two games. Shit, blogs for North Dakota high school girls soccer were having a field day. So look a little harder.
But if after doing so, you still feel there really is no OSU blog out here that does what you think this one does in a way you approve of, here's a tip: start one. They're free. And then you can post as much or as little about Michigan as you want. You can even bitch about this blog.
As folks may notice, I loathe deleting comments. Even negative ones. Even negative ones from OSU fans. That's the beauty of blogs. But we were forced to end anonymous comments because of dick comments. And sites I admire like EDSBS and Deadspin actually have comment screening before they are posted. I don't want to go that far. But I may start or at least begin deleting things that I feel are simply done to inflame.
Seriously, sru. We've had "this talk" before. I'd hate to have to do that. But it's annoying. Really is. And if you don't understand that, I don't know what to say. Except that, again, it's free to start your own blog.

every body breathe.....
srudoff, for a tOSU troll, I kinda like you. The MAC comment was funny and made me laugh.
and then everyone went all hyperbole with lists and shit and Yost had a hissy (his perogative) and now the fun has left the building.
I'm sure we all agree
a) Manningham has been dogging it all season
b) Coach Carr is done with his antics and lack of preparation
c) Coach is sending a message to the ENTIRE team---no one is too special or too 'good' not to be held accountable for misbehavior, lack of preparation and general "worminess"
and finally,
d) running steps did Arrington a whole lotta good.
carry on with the revelry, and not the unnecessary rivalry (at least on this thread)

Yost... I don't think the dick comment take was out of line at all.
Compare and contrast srudoff's posts with those of whetstonebuck or wingrg. Those guys actually add content to this site. Srudoff is nothing but an antagonizing whiner.
Srudoff complains Michigan fans are obsessed with tOSU... but who is the self proclaimed content police of this blog?
His last dozen posts have offered NOTHING to the forum but then he has the audacity to complain that Michigan fans are being defensive.
He regularly justifies an arsonist and assaulting culture with, "hey it a home game" and "it happens in Ann Arbor too".
I think most of us appreciate your tolerance of the "dick comments"; there comes a time when one has to question the motivation of somebody who provides no value to the forum and waits painstakingly behind the anonymity of a keyboard just to stir the pot at every perceived slight of his school.
Your post was right on target.

Hey, how 'bout them Diamondbacks!?
If we're going to start hugging it has to be the "3-pat on the back guy hug" or you can count me out.

I knew Manningham in high school at Harding..
He always seemed to work harder than you'd expect from a guy so talented, but he did have quite a cocky attitude, especially around school an in the halls. Expected, I guess, for a guy who knew he'd be getting a full ride to any Big10 team he chose.
Not surprising that his attitude isn't in check though, given the Michigan football environment: Yea Mike Hart gives 100%, but he seems selfish and not humble at all (in my opinion) based on his statements post-OSU last year and pre-ND this year.

"but then he has the audacity to complain that Michigan fans are being defensive."
i never complained about it - i actually said you guys were becoming like us, which was poking fun at osu fans for being defensive
"He regularly justifies an arsonist and assaulting culture with, "hey it a home game" and "it happens in Ann Arbor too"."
this couldn't be further from the truth. i've NEVER justified any type of behavior such as this, nor condoned it (nor would i say something like "hey it a home game")
yost - appreciate the offer to hold you although I'll pass :) i can make sure i only post attempts at humor going forward (like the MAC school comment), won't get defensive and won't bring up surrounded's cute list again :)
i'll even be sure to post little smilies so everyone here besides titleix gets that i'm joking (she's already with me it seems)

Arrrgh. This is turning into a group hug. I know all you well intentioned M fans think you're being noble by holding out an olive branch and being polite. But let me tell you you're wrong.
They mean this stuff. Believe me- I live here. Hell, I'm married to one. They really think they run a clean program! They really think Tressel has integrity. Last week I listened to my wife explain to our college bound high schooler as he read the US News college rankings that tosu really was a better school than michigan academically- the rankings were just skewed (you know, like the NY Times & ESPN are out to get them, too).
I know how Loncoon must have felt warning the folks of Troy about that horse & those sneaky Greeks. These guys aren't your friends and they aren't joking- they are out to get us!
Don't be nice to them.
And soylent green is PEOPLE! (which I admit really dates me).

i don't check this blog for a day and a fight breaks out. SiC, you need to lighten up, no one is trying to kill you, as in the case of the Trojan horse (that you so eloquently brought up). We're here to discuss college football and occasionally poke fun at our gracious hosts, hoping the hosts remain gracious (and they do, for the most part).
As far as your wife telling your kid about OSU's superiority in academics, wow, that one even made me laugh, and i have multiple degrees from OSU. OSU has been getting better academically, but we're not at the level of UM (yet).
I'll leave you with one of my favorite quotes (some, like SiC should know where this is from, others will blame it on my OSU education):
"Sometimes i feel like the Reverend Rodney King Jr ... I mean, can't we all just get along " (i said it in a thick Jersey accent)

"It is a great honor for Metro-North to be recognized for the hard work and dedication of our employees in rebuilding the line faster than anticipated following Tropical Storm Irene on August 28, 2011," said Metro-North President Howard Permut.
Flooding of the Ramapo River caused catastrophic damage to the line including some 40 washouts, three of which are longer than a thousand feet near Sloatsburg, significant damage to several railroad bridges and exposure of what had been a subterranean signal cable. Twisted tracks hung in midair and tons of ballast was washed away.
Service was restored within three months and all repairs were completed in spring 2012 with Metro-North employees working side by side with contractors and engineers from AECOM, which designed the major repairs.
The award will be presented at an April 6 event as part of the 2013 Engineering Excellence Awards Competition.
In addition, as a Diamond award recipient, Metro-North is in contention for the Empire Award, an award given to the highest rated project in New York state. The winner will be announced at the April 6 event.

Leyland is exactly where he belongs with Tigers
Veteran skipper has shown he knows when it is time to move on
By Tracy Ringolsby 2/6/2013 3:09 P.M. ET
With the highly-favored Tigers battling until the final days of last season with the White Sox before claiming the American League Central title there was talk that manager Jim Leyland might not return to Detroit for 2013.
Leyland heard the talk.
He, however, wasn't listening.
Leyland is ready to embark on his 22nd season as a Major League manager (his eighth with the Tigers ) confident enough in his ability to handle the job that he shrugs off the doubts others might have had at times last year.
And if Leyland says he's looking forward to managing, believe him.
He has proven over the years that he is not afraid to step away when he doesn't feel he is the right fit.
Three times in his managerial career, Leyland has stepped down -- in Pittsburgh, Florida and Colorado -- and each time it was on his own doing.
He guided the Pirates to three consecutive National League East titles (1990-92), but after four additional years of struggles, he stepped down and took the job with the Marlins. Florida won a World Series championship in '97, but ownership announced before the celebration parade that it was going to gut the roster. And when the inexperienced Marlins stumbled to 108 losses in '98, Leyland knew he didn't fit in a major rebuilding plan.
He went to Colorado, signing a three-year, $6 million deal, then walked away after a 90-loss season in 1999, leaving $4 million on the table after doing what he called a "lousy job." Leyland said that the challenges of making a living at altitude did not fit his managerial DNA.
For the next six years, Leyland was a special assistant to the St. Louis Cardinals, working with his long-time friend, Tony La Russa, who managed the Cardinals. It was La Russa who hired Leyland as a coach with the Chicago White Sox in 1982, Leyland's first big league job.
And those six years, as much as anything, might be what keeps Leyland going at the age of 68, when some of his peers -- including La Russa and Bobby Cox -- have decided to call it quits on their successful managerial careers.
"In some ways, those six years off have been a blessing," said Leyland. "I got to watch the kids grow up, and I had a chance to realize how much [managing] meant, how much I enjoyed that challenge.
"I still enjoy the job, and that's what matters to me. It's not about the money. That should be evident [from his past decisions]. It's about still feeling an excitement for the job, and feeling that I am earning the money, feeling that I am doing the job."
He's done that in Detroit.
A three-time winner of the Manager of the Year Award, he has a 607-528 record in seven years with the Tigers, having won two division titles and also advancing to the postseason in 2006 as the AL Wild Card. He is the first manager to have taken the Tigers to two World Series during his tenure since Mickey Cochrane (1934-35). The Tigers, in fact, had been to the Fall Classic only twice ('68 and '84) in the 60 years before Leyland guided them into the World Series against St. Louis in 2006.
And he has deep Detroit ties, not only having grown up Perrysburg, Ohio, just an hour or so away from the Motor City, but having begun his professional career with the Tigers as a Minor League catcher, coach and manager.
"It's where I grew up in the game," said Leyland. "Don't know if I would have [taken a job] anywhere else. I interviewed in Philadelphia when Charlie [Manuel] got the job, but nothing else. This just feels like the right place.
"We've got a good team in Detroit and the home crowds are great."
But then there is nothing like on-field success to generate fan enthusiasm.
The Tigers have had that, and Leyland expects it to continue.
He was impressed with the way the Tigers handled the challenge last year. The egos were subdued. It was as evident as eventual AL MVP Award winner Miguel Cabrera welcomed a move from first base to third base, even though it is not his best defensive position, to make room for the signing of free-agent Prince Fielder.
"The expectations [in Detroit] are high, and they should be," Leyland said. "You want expectations to be high. You can't wish your way to the World Series. You have to be good enough to earn it."
Leyland feels he has a team that is good enough to do that again this year.
And he knows that carries a pressure to succeed.
"If I don't do well they might tell me to get out," he admitted, "but so far we've done well."
So far, nobody has had to tell Leyland to get out.
He has proven that he is aware of where he belongs, and when it's time to move on.
He knows he belongs in Detroit.

But the CSM, gender-blind, speculates thusly:
The dramatic change in public opinion, experts say, has been driven by pop culture and generational shifts, and also a simple reality. While pot is illegal, it is common at parties and concerts....There's one more step needed in this analysis, and it's why I changed my mind. There's too much legal disorder, and it can only be decently cured by changing the federal law. Years ago, the states all agreed with the federal government's ban and helped out with the enforcement. But the states had the power to go their own way, and now that some have, there's a huge enforcement gap, which makes at least some people in those states feel that marijuana is legal. This is confusing to the point of unfairness.
"With the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes legal in about 20 states, and Washington and Colorado voting this November to legalize the drug for recreational use, American voters seem to have a more favorable opinion about this once-dreaded drug," Peter Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute, told CBS News. "There are large differences on this question among the American people."
Though boosted by successes in Colorado and Washington, pro-marijuana advocates say their toughest challenge is convincing Congress and President Obama to declassify pot as a Schedule 1 drug – or at least to ensure that Congress doesn't interfere with state experimentation on marijuana taxation. After all, Mr. Obama allowed his Justice Department to begin a crackdown on medical marijuana dispensaries despite a campaign promise to not do so....
I don't like the federal government lurking in the background and sending mixed signals about whether it will or will not enforce. Those who aren't too risk averse or who are not big rule-followers get to use a product that more timorous or punctilious individuals feel they're not allowed to use. And the medical marijuana approach makes it even worse, creating absurd temptations to lie and dissemble and even fantasize about ailments and the curative effect of the drug.
It's a mess that can only cleaned up by legalizing the drug at the federal level and letting the states take over the lawmaking and law enforcement.

iPhone 5 Rumors Persist: New Dock Connector, Thinner Design
I can look at my iPod touch which is the same size an iPhone and the headphone jack is on the bottom-left next to the 30-pin charger.
They really just want people to go out and buy more accessories to boost profit further. That $250 Bose speaker system you bought to dock your iphone? Need a new one now. I am sure it will still work with old A/C adapters but all those cables you accumulated (even I have 3)? In the garbage they go!

Outline is a note-taking application that features a unique design, intuitive hierarchy, and free placement of notes like a paper notebook, support for various types of content (text, images, inks, tags, Web content, etc.), synchronization options, and Microsoft OneNote compatibility. Outline's hierarchy resembles that of a real notebook: there are notebooks for general subjects, section tabs for specific topics, and pages for actual notes. For more complex notebook structures, additional section groups can be created within a notebook. There are no limitations on the number of notebooks, section groups, section tabs and pages.
HDSync provides synchronous playback of different HD videos on multiple screens. For video art, video wall, and dome installations, it provides realtime synchronized playback of audio and video, allowing consumer-grade HD decoders to synchronize playback using multiple devices connected via the local network.
Fish Sync is a file syncing application. It can transfer multiple folders between multiple machines, keeping these folders synchronized. The Fish package does not need to be available on each machine in the group, only on the machine initiating the synchronization. The Fish program is separated into two pieces, one which does the work in the background, and the other a frontend configuration tool. This separation allows the Fish service to be run on servers where a GUI interface is not desired.
KeyBoards is a cross-operating system platform that synchronizes short text messages or URLs. It is designed to be used for composing messages on a desktop system with a real, comfortable keyboard, and then sending them to a mobile device for transmission as an SMS. It is ideal for use with non-Latin character sets.
Easysync allows you to synchronize files among different computers. You pick up a directory you want to synchronize and Easysync will perform synchronisation whenever this directory is changed. The server part propagates the sync signal among clients, so that if there is a change on one client, all other clients will perform synchronization. It is based on Unison.
FirefoxSync for DolphinHD is a plugin for DolphinHD to keep information such as passwords, bookmarks, tabs, and history synchronized between you desktop Web browser and you mobile Web browser by using Mozilla Weave/Firefox Sync. It lets you access open tabs from the desktop on Dolphin and the other way around. It is not produced by the Mozilla Foundation.
TimeGT is powerful life and task management software that keeps data in sync using a secure server. It offers numerous ways to organize tasks, ideas, and notes. It will suit a wide range of time management techniques used by different people. The following filters are available and can be used in any combination: a project tree of arbitrary depth; task life-cycle supporting Timing folders (supports GTD method); any number of Tags added to a task and used for filtering; and a Start and Due dates based Horizon filter. It keeps tasks up-to-date between any number of computers. Tasks are mediated through the dedicated secure Sync server, and are protected when they travel over the Internet (RSA of adequate length is used). Information is accessible everywhere.
luckyBackup is a powerful, fast, reliable, and fully customizable backup and sync tool. It can backup any directory (the source) to another (the destination). luckyBackup copies over only the changes you've made to the source directory and nothing more, saving a great deal of time for backups after the first one. Whatever changes you make to the source, including adding, moving, deleting, modifying files or directories, will have the same effect on the destination. Owner, group, time stamps, links, and permissions of files are preserved (unless directed otherwise). The synchronization feature works on any pair of directories, keeping the files that were most recently modified on both of them. It includes many safety checks to prevent accidental loss of data.
Syncables Desktop enables you to easily sync, migrate, access, and publish content between Windows, Mac, and Linux PCs and portable storage devices. More than just documents, it syncs your music, photos, videos, email, and even browser bookmark "favorites". It automatically recognizes other Syncables PCs on a network, making it very easy to collaborate on documents or share media between PCs. You can even turn your network into a virtual media hub, with shared media accessible for playback on any Syncables networked PC. Popular Websites like Facebook, YouTube, and SmugMug are also integrated right into the application, so once you are signed in, you have automatic access to your online account with these sites. Just drag selected media to the Website icon for auto-upload, or click on the Website icon and play back all your posted media right from within Syncables Desktop.
Extracts useful information (title, bitrate, playtime, etc.) from MP3s and more.

A man has been arrested in an alleged terror plot to blow up the Federal Reserve building in New York City. Federal authorities and the New York Police Department collaborated to foil the plot apparently conceived by a Bangladeshi man, Quazi Mohammd Rezwanul Ahsan Nafis. Nafis is said to have conceived the plot. However, authorities learned of the plot and actually provided what appeared to be the bomb. It was inert and there was no threat to the public.

A recent complaint from a government watchdog group that the state Fire Marshal's Office mishandled safety concerns about a Grand Isle apartment building where two people later died in a fire is "irresponsible," an agency official said.
A recent complaint from a government watchdog group that the state Fire Marshal's Office mishandled safety concerns about a Grand Isle apartment building where two people later died in a fire is "irresponsible," an agency official said.
"It is so irresponsible to suggest that these fire deaths are related to substandard living quarters," Deputy Chief Brant Thompson of the State Fire Marshal's Office said Monday.
Metropolitan Crime Commission President Rafael Goyeneche, who filed the complaint with the state Inspector General's Office, said the Fire Marshal's Office didn't follow its own protocol investigating safety concerns of a neighbor to the Willow Creek Apartments, which caught fire Sept. 27. The fire claimed the lives of Timothy Foret, 46, and Belle Christin Brandl, 60, who lived in separate apartments there.
The allegations center around a complaint filed by the building's neighbor in May.
The complaint, addressed to the Fire Marshal's Office, said there were doors, window air-conditioners and windows missing, and the building had no smoke detectors or fire extinguishers. The neighbor called the building an "extreme fire hazard."
But Thompson said there were smoke detectors, and fire extinguishers were later found fully emptied and lying in the middle of the burned floor.
Public records show there were two visits to the complex by an inspector responding to the initial complaint.
The inspector was unable to contact management at the complex, records show. He made brief contact with a resident and verbally confirmed he had a smoke detector. No formal inspection was conducted on the visits.
Goyeneche contends the Fire Marshal's Office broke its own procedure by not doing a thorough investigation.
"When the district chief arrived, the information in the complaint was not consistent with the observations he made," Thompson said in response. "He then has the discretion on how to handle the complaint."
Thompson said the investigator who visited the site saw no hazards, such as blocked exits.
Much of complaint mentioned issues outside the Fire Marshal's authority such as missing windows and air conditioners, Thompson said.
Thompson also said a fire marshal inspector cannot demand entry into a private residence.
"To suggest that there is a correlation between the complaint filed by (Milton) Bourgeois and the tragic fire is irresponsible," Thompson said.
Investigators concluded the fire was started outside the building and spread, blocking the only exit from the victims' apartments.
"I can't say if (the inspection) had occurred the fire wouldn't have happened and those two people wouldn't have died," Goyeneche said.
He has forwarded fire marshal public records and complaints to the state inspector general.

Phase one of the Green Line Extension is a $12.9-million effort to reconstruct two railroad bridges in Medford and Somerville to accommodate new Green Line tracks. In addition, under the contract, a building in the city of Cambridge will be demolished to clear the path from extending the tracks from Lechmere Station.
On June 11, 2012, Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) and MBTA received notification from the Federal Transit Administration that its application to enter the preliminary engineering phase of the project for the New Starts Program was approved. This approval puts the Green Line Extension project in a position where it can compete for funding to finance approximately half the project's total cost.
"This project is a long time coming and we're grateful to all of the advocates who have kept this project in the forefront of our minds," said MassDOT Secretary and CEO Richard Davey. "We're excited that work along this corridor is taking a major step forward and we look forward to continue making progress."
The contractor for the project is Barletta Heavy Division. The project entails reconstructing the Harvard Street Bridge in Medford and the Medford Street Bridge in Somerville. The Harvard Street Bridge reconstruction will begin this month; the Medford Street Bridge reconstruction will begin in the spring of 2013. Demolition of the building located at 21 Water Street in Cambridge will occur later in 2013. The overall project is expected to cost $1.12 billion.

The area of Queens comprising Steinway and Astoria was formerly known by the Algonquian name of Sunswick, derived from the word Sunkisq, meaning "woman chief." In 1839 developer Stephen A. Halsey incorporated the village of Astoria, which he named in honor of fur trader and landowner John Jacob Astor. Within a few decades, the area was home to a number of wealthy merchants, a substantial German-American community, and the Steinway piano company. As the name of the neighborhood suggests, it began as home to Steinway & Sons, the legendary piano maker and transit magnate in the early days of the trolley car. In 1870 William Steinway, son of the original company founder Henry Steinway, (nee Steinweg) bought 400 acres of land in northwest Queens and moved the operations from their original headquarters in Manhattan, to their new home, which continues its production in the same area today. Along with the factory, he also built Steinway Village, a company town with its own post office, park for recreation, housing for employees, and with a church, library, kindergarten school, and public trolley line. Unlike many other factory towns of the time, Steinway Village was not built exclusively for workers (employees only accounted for about one third of the inhabitants) since they treated the property as a real- estate investment, selling land and houses. On May 4, 1870, Astoria, Hunter's Point, Steinway, and Ravenswood consolidated to become Long Island City.
Even though the ease of a commute from Steinway into Manhattan has transformed the neighborhood into a bustling mix of ethnicities and styles, vestiges of old Steinway still survive even today. Two-story brick houses continue to stand on 20th Avenue and 41st Street. They boast stone window lintels and recessed entrances. Built before 1880 as housing for factory employees, they are Landmark quality homes. And the Steinway mansion built by William Steinway is still a private residence on 41 Street, originally Albert Street, named for one of his sons. 42 Street was also formerly named Theodore Street, for another one of William Steinway's sons.

Employment & Labor Law
Discover a wealth of career options in workplace law
"I have always had a passion for labor and employment law. This is not truly surprising when one looks at most Americans and realizes that no aspect of their daily lives plays a more central role than the workplace and the job that they hold. However, it was not until coming to Moritz that I really understood the breadth and the depth of the issues that are constantly operating in the background of every workplace in America. With passionate professors providing real world anecdotes, these classes are much more than a routine review of black letter law, they are an exploration of intricate policies and historical principals that shaped the current state of the law today. The Labor and Employment Program at Moritz provided me with the fundamental understanding I needed to tackle a variety of projects during my time as a summer, and now as a permanent, associate with Littler Mendelson. As president of Labor and Employment Law Association at Moritz, I encouraged others to learn about the intricacies of this multi-dimensional field and take advantage of the invaluable experience this program has to offer."

For most individuals engaged in the workforce, labor and employment law contributes greatly to
the nature of the employer-employee relationship. Beginning with child labor statutes and running
through age discrimination and pension laws, the law has something to say on nearly every issue
confronting employees during their working years — wages, hours, fringe benefits, safety
and health, job security, discrimination, and employee privacy.
At Moritz, students study labor and employment law with faculty who enjoy national reputations for their scholarship in this important public
policy area. Students engaged in the critical analysis of constitutional, statutory, and common
law issues are encouraged to confront complex and controversial public policy problems. Moritz
graduates have gone on to represent unions, individual workers, private employers, federal
and state government agencies, and public interest organizations active in this field.
The three core courses in the area are Labor Law, Employment Law, and Employment
Discrimination Law. All three courses deal with fundamental aspects of the law relating to the
workplace. Labor Law addresses the relationship between employers and workers who act
collectively through a labor union. Employment Law covers state and federal regulation of terms
and conditions of employment. Employment Discrimination Law covers the laws protecting
employees from "status" discrimination — discrimination based on race, national
origin, religion, gender, age, disability, and sexual orientation.
Other related courses include Administrative Law, which provides a helpful background in
understanding the workings of federal agencies such as the National Labor Relations Board and
the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Antitrust Law may provide useful perspectives for labor law — each regulates collective action, although with distinct goals in mind. Alternative dispute resolution courses and the course on privacy are also increasingly relevant to
employer-employee relations.
The Labor and Employment Law Association (LELA), a student organization, fosters a greater understanding of the practice of labor and employment law. Moritz students have an opportunity to learn about the latest developments in this quickly growing field, as well as gain insight into the daily life of a labor and employment practitioner. LELA's main activities consist of guest speakers and networking opportunities.
