Wine Management tracks wine production from harvest through bottling. As a record keeping system, it tracks history of wine compositions in all detail. It tracks variety, area, year, yield, and taste. Because it accumulates wine lost to processing and updates the yields, you always know the values when it was produced. Quantities processed by work center are kept up to date. Almost any level of inventory is available by month, including any combination of variety, area, year, taste, storage, and others. Tank lineup may prove very profitable with faster processing and reduced cellar cost and crews. It can find the best pipes to use based on either number of pipes, flow, or heat loss.

I remember one time, back in the 1950s — when I was a Brownie — I was taught how to make a hat out of artificial flowers and set up to demonstrate this minuscule skill at some sort of vast public exposition. The Governor showed up. "This is Governor Boggs," I was told. For some reason, he was very interested in how to make a crappy lady's hat out of cloth-and-wire flowers. I understood that the man was very important. And I understood that he cared about my hat-making. And that was what you call "Governor." It puzzled me for a long, long time.
So some kids in Madison got to witness the President in person. How edifying was it? He began with introduction and praise for various Democrats — "I want to first of all just say that Jim Doyle is not only one of the finest governors we have in the country, but is also a great friend, a great supporter; his entire family has been wonderful" —which was 100% not useful to kids. He continued:
You know, one year ago, Americans all across this country went to the polls and cast ballots for the future they wanted to see. (Applause.)Gah. Campaigning.
Election Day was a day of hope...This is campaign swill. At least it's showing kids what a President does. No flowered hats. No books about fuzzy animals. Just flat-out political speech.
Facing this reality, my administration had two fundamental obligations. The first was to rescue the economy from imminent collapse... We acted boldly and swiftly...
We've put a tax cut into the pockets of 95 percent of hardworking families. We created or saved over one million jobs...
... we've taken steps to unlock our frozen credit markets...He's not taking any notice that he's talking to children. Here kids, look. This is a President. Wind him up and he talks President. I'm cutting a lot of generic stuff — puffery about his achievements and so forth. At some point, he gets to the topic of education:
The United States, a nation that has always led the way in innovation, is now being outpaced in math and science education. A handful of states have even gone in the wrong direction, lowering their standards at the very moment that they should be raising them. We used to rank number one in the number of college graduates and advanced degrees. That's not the case anymore. Meanwhile, African American and Latino students continue to lag behind their white classmates -- an achievement gap that will ultimately cost us hundreds of billions of dollars because that's our future workforce.Should you really stand in front of a big group of middle schoolers and brutally inform that that the minority kids are doing worse? What does that sound like to a kid? It's especially harsh since he's expressing concern not for the personal fulfillment of the individual but for the fact that it's costing some amorphous "us" a whole lot of money. Students matter not because they are human beings but because — as a group — they are "our future workforce." They aren't even workers. They are to be merged into a mass called The Workforce.
When I was a teenager, talk like that stirred rebellion in me. I'm trying to imagine how I would feel if I were not doing well in school and I were a member of a group the President stigmatized as lagging. I've got to assume I'd feel more rebellious.
Of course, these problems aren't new. We've heard about them for years....Everything is new to kids! Why isn't he speaking to the kids?
He's got a big spending plan to tout. Of course, if there is to be federal involvement in education, it will need to draw on the spending power and it will necessarily require throwing out amounts of money that will be sufficient to tempt state and local government away from their independent educational policymaking.
... In the coming weeks, states will be able to compete for what we're calling a Race to the Top award. We're putting over $4 billion on the table -- $4 billion with a "b" -- one of the largest investments that the federal government has ever made in education reform. But we're not just handing it out to states because they want it. We're not just handing it out based on population. It's not just going through the usual political formulas. We're challenging states to compete for it....The details of how to compete — how to impress federal officials that you've got the right ideas — are far beyond what children can understand. The children are really, therefore, just a backdrop for a speech to the country generally.
Now, before a state is even eligible to compete, they'll have to take an important first step. And this has caused some controversy in some places, but it shouldn't be controversial. Any state that has a so-called firewall law will have to remove them. Now, here's what a firewall law is: It basically says that you can't factor in the performance of students when you're evaluating teachers. That is not a good message in terms of accountability. So we said, if you've got one of those laws, if you want to compete for these grants you got to get rid of that law....Wisconsin is a state that has that firewall law. We have it because we as a state want it. And we have excellent education here. But who wants to be excluded from a distribution of billions — that's billions with a "b" — of dollars in federal money? If we want to "race" for the money, we've got to tie teachers' salaries to student performance. The hypothetical rebellious student that I would become would be devilishly pleased to know that my refusal to jump through the government's educational hoops would cost my oppressor-teacher money.
There is much more to the speech, and some of the ideas are good. Yes, please support young people who want to become teachers, especially as they take on the work of educating disadvantaged children. There is an amazing section of the speech where he totally violates his daughter's privacy for the greater good:
So Malia came home the other day. She had gotten a 73 on her science test. Now, she's a 6th grader. There was a time a couple years ago when she came home with like an 80-something and she said, "I did pretty well." And I said, "No, no, no. That's" -- I said, "Our goal is" -- "Our goal is 90 percent and up." (Applause.)It's hard to see just what it was that made Malia feel that she just liked "having knowledge." Was it the harsh slap of a bad grade? There's a long section of Obama's speech about testing. Is a lot of standardized testing good or bad? He dances all around that point and gathers some applause, but in the end, I think he's saying that we need the standardized tests and we will continue to require them — and hinge teachers' salaries to them. That's not going to end. That's going to be more powerfully incentivized.
Here is the interesting thing. She started internalizing that. So she came and she was depressed, "I got a 73." And I said, "Well, what happened?" "Well, the teacher -- the study guide didn't match up with what was on the test." "So what's your idea here?" "Well, I'm going to start -- I've got to read the whole chapter. I'm going to change how I study, how I approach it." So she came home yesterday, she was -- "I got a 95" -- right? -- so she's high-fiving. (Applause.)
But here's the point. She said -- she said, "I just like having knowledge." That's what she said. And what was happening was she had started wanting it more than us. Now, once you get to that point, our kids are on our [sic] way. But the only way they get to that point is if we're helping them get to that point.
And what can possibly inspire

It could be said that this is similar to the HIJACK THREAD, but the difference is that the *LAST* word in your sentence is the *FIRST* word in the next post.
As an example, I'll pretend that I've made three posts here. The last word in my third sentence will be the first word in the post after mine.
It IS permissible to start your sentence with an article (A, AN, THE), with the start word being the word after the article. The first post could actually be a reply to a sentence which ended with CHECK.
First post:
[The] check is in the mail.
Second post:
Mail can really stack up when you're out of town for a week.
Third post:
Week after week, month after month, the political machinery will gradually work its way toward a final resolution in early November.

So, apparently Uganda is still poised to pass that abominable bill.
Here's the post from JoeMyGod (it has links to other sources, which is why I picked it)
Ugandans "are demanding it," [Parliament Speaker Rebecca Kadaga] said, reiterating a promise she made before a meeting on Friday of anti-gay activists who spoke of "the serious threat" posed by homosexuals to Uganda's children. Some Christian clerics at the meeting in the Ugandan capital, Kampala, asked the speaker to pass the law as "a Christmas gift."
"Speaker, we cannot sit back while such (a) destructive phenomenon is taking place in our nation," the activists said in a petition. "We therefore, as responsible citizens, feel duty-bound to bring this matter to your attention as the leader of Parliament ... so that lawmakers can do something to quickly address the deteriorating situation in our nation."
I am disgusted beyond words. I hope this hellhole is completely crippled by international sanctions...

Today, the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center sits on nearly 2,000 acres of land and is home to some of the most sophisticated technology in the world.
Today, the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center sits on nearly 2,000 acres of land and is home to some of the most sophisticated technology in the world. It's the training ground for American astronauts.
Joseph Piland can remember when the property was nothing but open land with cattle roaming the grounds. Piland, who retired from NASA in 1982 and now lives in Hendersonville, was a part of the team that met the owner in Houston and saw the land in person.
The land was donated to Rice University and then to the U.S. government. The government bought another 600 acres surrounding it, Piland said.
It was ironic that Piland was one of the first people to look at the acreage and envision one of the primary locations of the space program, which was in its infancy at this point. President John F. Kennedy had just announced to the world in a speech to Congress that one of his goals was for America to go to the moon.
"That opened all kinds of doors," said Piland, who went on to serve as director of operations at the space center for three decades.
He grew up in rural Virginia and had never envisioned this life for himself. Instead, Piland saw a farm in his future, but on a slightly smaller scale than the one chosen for the space center.
"My daddy had some cows and I could milk them when I was 8 years old," he said.
When Piland graduated high school, he was accepted to a technical school run by the Navy in Portsmouth, Va. When he graduated from the program four years later, the world was at war.
He enlisted in the Army Air Corps and graduated as a navigator. He shipped out to New Guinea in the South Pacific and flew as a navigator in 64 missions. When the war ended, Piland took advantage of the GI Bill and enrolled at Virginia Tech. He graduated with a degree in mechanical engineering.
In 1949, he went to work for the National Advisory Committee on Aviation, which in 1958 became NASA. Three years later, Kennedy gave his speech to Congress.
Months after that, Piland and others were looking at cattle without farming on their minds. Instead, the Manned Spacecraft Center, later named after Johnson, was about to become a piece of a massive program that would change the world.
"I was here in the beginning when we put the chain-link fence around the property," Piland said.
He spent the next three decades as the director of operations. Piland was in charge of the facilities, maintenance and power. He watched the center grow to more than 100 buildings.
Beyond that, he was on hand for some of the most memorable moments in the history of not only the United States, but the world. When Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong and Michael Collins went to the moon as the world watched, Piland was in Houston.
The rockets that boosted the shuttles into orbit were built at the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Ala. The astronauts were trained and the shuttle was designed at the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center. The rocket astronauts and the shuttle converged on the John F. Kennedy Space Center in Orlando for launch.
As those launches happened, Piland was either at the control center or walking the grounds at the center in Houston.
"I didn't push the button, but I better give them power so they can push the button," Piland said of his job.
When Apollo 13 had America on the edge of its seat, Piland was walking from the control center to his office late one night. He ran into a woman who cleaned the offices. She was in tears and asked if he thought the astronauts would be all right.
That woman, he said, was symbolic of the team-style approach that consumed everyone who worked in Houston.
"They were emotionally involved with those guys that were sticking their necks out," Piland said.
Piland has been a part of just about every historic space flight since the inception of NASA. He worked on Project Mercury all the way up to the Apollo flights. He's met hundreds of astronauts, including Armstrong and Aldrin.
He retired in 1982 and moved to Hendersonville in 1984. He and his wife of 66 years, Ruth, moved into Carolina Village nine years ago.
As he approaches his 90th birthday in December, Piland can only think back and smile about the history that he experienced in his lifetime.
"I often say I've had a tremendous life with the experiences I've had," he said.

Switzerland's Jungfrau Region: Best Of The Alps
series: Rick Steves' Europe
air date: 11/20/12 12:30 AM
If Heidi is alive, she's in this sky-high corner of the Swiss Alps, with cows on breathtaking ridges. After settling into a traditional village where locals scythe hay by hand, we hike, bike, and parasail. We blast an alphorn, get sprayed by waterfalls raging deep inside a mountain, and munch muesli for breakfast at 10,000 feet. For a finale, we ride Europe's highest lift up the mighty Jungfrau for hot cocoa, glacier sledding, and oh-wow views.

Disney's boys would appear to me to be even prettier than Disney's girls.
May be I'm biased in favour of more masculine looking guys.
According to IMDB this guy was born in 1992, and claims to be a former soccer player. That's one point in his favour.
I rather suspect that Zac is happy to have moved beyond his Disney days.
I wish Gregg much success.

Kicking off the DICE summit in Las Vegas today was a keynote presentation by Valve head Gabe Newell and Star Trek director J.J. Abrams. At the talk, the two teased that they were interested in working together on future collaborations. "There's an idea we have for a game that we'd like to work with Valve on," Abrams said, while Newell said: "We're super excited about that and we also want to talk about making movies, either a Portal movie or a Half-Life movie."
But how serious are the pair in making their wants a reality? Apparently, pretty serious. "It's as real as anything in Hollywood ever gets," Abrams said. "Which is that we are really talking to Valve, we are going to be bringing on a writer, we have a lot of very interesting ideas."
"Both a Portal and Half-Life movie are things I want to see," Abrams told Polygon, noting that he's well aware of the pitfalls other game-to-movie adaptations have faced. "We're also aware of the cautionary tales of movies that became games and vice versa. Our goal here to is to treat the world Valve has created in both these properties like anyone would a book or some great story that comes from a pitch or original script--just to treat it with the respect they treat their games and their players with."
Of course, Abrams has his hands tied for quite some time, having already signed on to direct Star Wars: Episode VII, which is aiming for a 2015 release. Valve fans, however, are known for being a patient bunch, so the years-long process to make a movie a reality shouldn't faze them too much.

In case we don't get the real one back.
In case we don't get the real one back.
I confess, you did.
And a good seat.
Sometimes I think this forum needs a big drink of "not everything is about you."
The old confessions thread, for better or for worse, was a 'hangout.' It being gone has left a void for days now.
I confess, I've always wanted to be on a vulture.
This one:
In before someone mention Benderboy confession and the thread disappear again
I confess that I probably shouldn't confess.
The mods would no doubt immediately swoop in and remove this entire thread again, just because they're desperately trying to cover up a certain issue and sweep it under the carpet.
(dammit where's DigitalFudge's trademark smiley when you need it?)
*searches around*
No matter how many new thread we try to make to replace the other one its just not the same cause all it is is a fake imitation.
The only way it can work is if the thread title has a new name. Though I do like the idea that some one mention in the other thread being a "Dear Diary" concept.
This is for whatever. And Quasar indicated the old one was still in existence so... the mods can merge or delete this one when the old one is allowed back.
Drama? I was just hoping you'd be the other guy.
...all right. Anyone else want to head to the back room for some of that?
"So, what are you wearing?"
"Two paper bags and a watch."
I confess to have not having finished a book I received for Christmas and had intended to finish by New Year's.
@ Cupid, you can leave the thread if you don't like it. No one asked you here.
^ cute, but pretty easy to see he didn't start it on a one-page thread
And considering what we've discussed it, I'm surprised that you seem to have ignored (or conveniently forgotten) what I thought were the two fundamental lessons of our discussions. But I guess we're all learning a lot about ourselves today, aren't we?And considering what we've discussed in the past I can't believe you're trying to goat me Lex.
...and yes, this is where you say "whatevs".
Testy, testy. All we need now is Grimshaw and aborogines.
I have to admit i like it when yo guys argue lol.
Is that bad?
Maybe you did learn after all.
I'd say this thread has served its purpose. Buzz, did you want to see if the mods would close and/or zap it?
nothing to a thread... literally.
I have to confess that even though he and Giancarlo are so adolescently pugnacious I confess Xxbuzzxx is occasionally quite perceptive.
Maybe not so much in this thread but in those CE&P threads where xxbuzz lets out an occasional squeak of insight amidst their barrage of thuggery.
And I can confess that Pat Grimshaw occasionally demonstrates a refined vocabulary. You don't very often hear 'pugnacious.'
^ you and Giancarlo and your old Canadian friend personify it.
He says the practice of invective is a form of art.
Were T. S. Eliot Australian he would've written:
"Do I dare to eat an avocado?"
(apologies to Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock.)
i confess to being in the BEST MOOD OF MY LIFE. i feel like i'm high BUT i'm NOT weeded out. my face is feeling toasted BUT goddamnit, I FEEL GOOD. I FEEL GREAT. i don't know if the ssri's is putting me in a manic state BUT FUCK, I FEEL GOOD and NOTHING CAN GET ME DOWN!!!!
i see that this thread already made a wrong turn because someone appeared to be in a bad mood BUT sheit... i love you xbuzzerx. to think that the same time last week, it was the great depression and NOW, I FEEL .
I credit the killer edging session you had earlier in the day.
I am not in a bad mood.
this new fuji just wants to sniff guy's necks, smile all day long, put dicks in his mouth and have jizz overflowing him his asshole and mouth. at this moment of this, i wouldn't mind having a bloody rectum from hard sex with a hard cock.
I confess that I didn't know there was so much drama from seemingly nothing on the first page of this thread. Mountain out of a molehill, etc, etc.
Like the SSRI fuji.

Michigan 17, NW 3...That was ugly
Couple of quick thoughts...
* Leon Hall played BIG. He was like a blanket out there. Which leads to the question...
* Why was NW attacking his side of the field that much? Wouldn't you got at Trent and the others more instead?
* I don't have confidence with Grady at RB. He puts too many on the turf.
* Breaston can be counted on to drop one or two sure first downs a game. Very frustrating.
* Good to see Jerome Jackson get a shot and play well in the 4th Q.
* If not for key 'Cat turnovers, this game might have even been closer.
* We really, really, really miss Manningham.
* Thank god for Ball State next week.
Leave your thoughts in the comments section.

The game was sooooo boring, but they did what they needed to do and you are correct about SB. He drives me nuts!!!! I don't think the offense was lost just very Vanilla. Go blue OSUSUXS!
- October 28, 2006 3:23 PM
the weather had a huge impact on the game today.
- October 28, 2006 3:34 PM
I couldn't believe we didn't go for it with about 2 minutes left in the first half and a fourth and 2 at their forty. Our D was playing well, and the lack of agressiveness in situations like that keeps games like this close.
- October 28, 2006 4:17 PM
Ball State. HAH, HAH. What an out of conference schedule.

Please get back on your medication. This game was added when teams were allowed to add a 12th game. Who did you think we'd be playing in November, Auburn?
Then again, I know that doesn't sniff the Navy, Air Force, UNC and Army run ND is in the midst of.
- October 28, 2006 4:30 PM
Ball State not on cable tv, not on (((XM))), I have to go back to the days of watching the ticker or maybe i'll do the gamecast, ESPN is really putting the screws to the local cable company here in San Diego (COX) to get ESPNU.

I don't know why Grady is getting criticized for fumbling today. He didn't fumble. The ball was - correctly - blown dead.
And I agree with Anon above that the offense was very vanilla, though we do miss Manningham more than I thought we would.
- October 28, 2006 5:30 PM
You're right, Grady didn't fumble.. TODAY. I hold my breath everytime he touches the ball, though.
- October 28, 2006 5:38 PM
Jesus murphy. It wasn't exciting because we didn't need it to be. We threw to AA once. Breaston dropped a couple slants. We ran 75% of the time.
When you're a running team, you don't need to run the score early because the other team will be worn down at the end.
SO everyone just fucking relax.
- October 28, 2006 5:46 PM
masterson-if you're an OSU fan, the team you beat a couple weeks ago, Bowling Gfreen, got doubled up and lost to winless Temple
- October 28, 2006 5:53 PM
Although the offense was poor today, I thought the game was more fun than the MSU game. I was starting to feel for the NW qb, he was getting killed every play that wasn't a 3 step drop.
Remember that this is Lloyd's dream season. Great defense, solid running game, always playing with the lead. Don't expect him to change it up unless he has to. I think more of the playbook will be used on Nov 18th as well
- October 28, 2006 6:28 PM
relax, Yost. The offense does what it has to do to win. they arent going to call deep bombs if they dont have to, or take chances unless it is necessary. the offense can explode, but there is no sense in taking chances or running up the score. that is what leads to upset losses.
- October 28, 2006 6:48 PM
The game was great if you're a defense guy. Michigan D was in the house and if you were NOT in the house you have no idea how miserable it was. We have had cold, we have had rain and we have had wind but this was the 1st time we had cold blowing rain that I can recall in 18 years. It SUCKED but the Wolves did fine. Grady needs to keep working the bicep curls and carry that silk ball. I think we are spoiled by the awesome ability of Hart to rarely lose a ball. Mike needs to train Kevin in case hart leaves after this year. It sucks that the season ticket holders are harnessed with a November nonconference game. I would love to have had the opportunity to opttion out of that game so others could sit in the set (right...). Oh well, 21 days until the trip to the industrial toilet seat!

Even though the turnovers were "committed" by the Wildcats, don't forget that they were what (in tennis at least) are called "forced error" - they are a credit to the defense relentlessly putting pressure on the NW offensive line and QB.
- October 28, 2006 7:19 PM
- surrounded in columbus said...
it was 42 degrees,25 mph winds (and gusts to 50), & driving rains. a couple of early passes bent by 30 degrees into the wind. pretty obvious that early on they decided to button things down and grind it out.
good call- only way NU was going to score was on a TO/good field position.

If we beat OSU 14-3, this blog would be the first to complain about the vanilla playcalling.

I'm not a tosu fan. They are probably as bad a program as you could be. Their litany of misdeeds is a long & plentiful one under Tressel. That said my defense of CW is because I watched what you did not in his press conference. By reporting an error filled critique you are well on your way to writing for the "Old gray lady". I really enjoy your comment & insights, hilarious.Don't ban me from the site. Jim. PS. Break Up the Temple Owls!!!!

Jeremy, I wasn't complaining about the vanilla playcalling, just using it as an explanation. Personally I love vanilla. It's one of my favorite flavors.

I'd take effeciency over explosive any day of the week. What scares me is how efficient Troy Smith is.
Anon in San Diego:
You can go to mgoblue.com under the footballpage is the link to the radio broadcast. There are two options the CSTV one doesn't work but the other one will let you listen on line. Very handy for when I have to work on gamedays. Try it and hopefully it will work for you.

- Kraut said...
Vanilla, yes, but there were also a few things to cause some concern - not to freak out and call for Mike DeBord's head or anything like that, but some concern, yes.
First, Breaston continues to drop 1st down passes. I'm not exactly how many he's dropped this year, but it's gotta' be in double digits. I just worry that he'll drop another first down against OSU when it could make a difference in the game.
Second, even though they rushed for 200 yards, I wasn't that impressed by the running game overall. Perhaps it's because of the banged up O-line, but I thought there were too many 0, 1, and 2 yard runs which led to quite a few 3rd and more than 5's.
Again, it might be because of the injuries, but I thought the pass protection was the worst I've seen since earlier in the year. NW is not a good team ... they shouldn't have had that much pressure on Henne.
Regardless, it was a win ... and UM is one step closer to being 11-0 going into Columbus!

An answer to the debate:
vialpatien made this post and ill report it here since alot of UM fans like to dog OSU asif it were a subpar team.
The teams are almost dead even. (includes today's games)

That is measuring EVERY defensive category that the NCAA officially tracks.
Another measure of THE game will be against the Offensive attacks.
So either fanbase saying it is going to be a blowout either way is just stupid.
OSU and Michigan are about dead even on D
OSU has Michigan by a total of 7 points and 60 yards a game.

This game didn't bother me too much in the big picture (for reasons already noted by others) though if we are as flat on offense at IU we could have problems.
But I am bothered by how consistently mediocre Grady is. He was among the top rated recruits in the nation two years ago, but he (at this admittedly early part of his career) shows nothing--average speed, power, and hands and less-than-average insticts. Granted, Hart could carry 30+ times vs. tOSU and do the job as Chris Perry did in '03. But I'd feel a lot better if I had confidence in any other RB.
BTW, the Game Day crew just brought up the possibility that the M-tOSU loser could end up #2, setting up a rematch in the championship game. Actually makes some sense.
- October 29, 2006 12:19 AM
So I assume Benny won't be posting any "When 28-14 isn't like 44-0" posts anymore?
Disappointing the voter angle won't be addressed this week when Michigan squeaks by Northwestern.
Funny how that works.

- October 29, 2006 8:29 AM
This game reminded me of the Purdue game in '95. That day (Halloween weekend), it was about zero with the wind chill (35 without), driving rain/sleet, pure misery. The stadium was at about 50,000 by the third quarter. We ended up winning 5-0 (on an a safety sack by Woodson the freshman btw), yet the game never really felt in doubt.
Today we scored a nice TD early before the weather got horrid. Then both defenses used the conditions to their advantage.

The vanilla offense was fine when Michigan wanted to keep the playbook closed before ND, and it's ok to do the same thing before OSU.
- October 29, 2006 10:01 AM
I don't know guys, everytime I watch tOSU I can't see us beating them. It's just their year, sad to say.
- October 29, 2006 10:41 AM
I thought Michigan lost that game to Purdue 7-5 when Michigan tried to get the offensive lineman to score a TD (the fridge style). Or am I mistaken?
- October 29, 2006 10:58 AM
Michigan beat Purudue 5-0 in horrible conditions in Michigan Stadium in 1995.
A year later, Purdue upset Michigan 9-3 at Purdue. Defensive lineman Will Carr fumbled on the goaline in a Fridge like attempt to score a touchdown.
- October 29, 2006 11:54 AM
Ok thanks, thought I remembered that for a reason. I was in the Persian gulf in 95 and not in 96. Thanks for clearing that up.

THe 2006 Michigan Wolverines are the college football equivalent of the 2000 Baltimore Ravens. Chad Henne only needs to be Trent Dilfer, not Troy Smith or Payton Manning. Hart is our Jamal Lewis, Woodley is Ray Lewis (minus the homicide). There is no shame in winning ugly behind a solid running game and a great defense.
I can't believe that after 9 weeks people still don't understand that this is how Michigan is going to win games this year. Quit complaining and try to enjoy our undefeated season.
- October 29, 2006 1:58 PM
I think the problem is that every week Michigan wins ugly and you-know-who wins pretty and handily. Of course M fans are becoming more and more envious.
Whatever, it's not like we had to come back from 21 down or anything like that. With all due respect to Texas, this will be the best team that tOSU plays this year. And that's that.
Just win the next two games, please. Let's worry about 0-State when it's 0-State week.
- October 29, 2006 2:17 PM
Good post Howard21.
We are dead even on defense (except scoring), OSU keeps their opponents out of the endzone while we let in one touchdown to many per game.
I'm just afraid of their offense..it has been unstoppable. They just laid a beatdown on Minnesota. Too bad they don't play Wisconsin, because it would be a good good comparison of the two teams.

I wish you guys could pick it up a little bit. My god you have almost lost the last two games. Why can't you play like the #2 in the nation.
- October 29, 2006 4:42 PM
One stat Howard forgot to post is Michigan's "D" has pounded 4 QB's into the ground their last three games.You can't throw down field from a bench! LOL.....

You mean like U$C?
- October 29, 2006 4:55 PM

I am going to petition the NCAA that injured or removed QB's be counted as a stat. Also very hard to throw when you don't know your own name.
I am pleased to inform you that you were the first tOSU troll to go to my blog. Please feel free to never go there again unless you want to discuss football in a civil discourse (that means talk about something not where you just run your mouth)

It was a good game. However, I admit that after being conditioned for a couple years of so many down to the wire games, it seemed a little boring. Historically, such games have been boring. It's nice to get back to tradition.
- October 30, 2006 8:45 AM
Who else thought it was classy that LC didn't leave Mike Hart in just so he could rack up Heisman points?
- October 30, 2006 12:14 PM
Part of it is because Mike Hart has ZERO chance of winning the Heisman.

Kwaga BirdsEye is a desktop widget that recognizes email messages that matter and alerts the email recipient when the recipient receives an email that asks for something or requests a meeting, or when the recipient receives an email with a reply to an important email. The desktop application works whether or not the user has connected to email Inboxes. It supports Gmail and Google Apps, free.fr, and Yahoo mail accounts. Up to five accounts may be used. Kwaga BirdsEye automatically detects and prioritizes the people the recipient has already communicated with in the past (a.k.a. "trusted sources").
NuKit is a productivity and timesaving toolkit that provides a Launcher, Tweaker, Shortcuts, Window Mover, Advanced Calculator, Real Zoom, and Real Close. The Launcher is a multifunctional launch panel to open applications, Web sites, and search engines, run commands, perform calculations, and check the dictionary. Shortcuts lets you assign system wide shortcuts to any applications, Web sites, and files, and to execute system actions and scripts.
Inhouse-Web is Web-based time recording and tracking software built for companies that want to track their projects' worktime to get accurate time billing for their customers. In contrast to other time trackers, Inhouse-Web will not offer its own task system. It directly synchronizes with other issue tracking systems like Trac so that each employee can connect their worktime with already existing tickets for their projects. But this application is quite a bit more than a simple time tracking system. You can also manage your company's stock of software and hardware, books, and other materials.
Outliner Lighto is a console-based outliner/hierarchical editor. An outliner is used to edit an hierarchy of text (a tree with text in every node). This hierarchy can represent anything the user wants, like TODO lists, calendar, tasks, address book, bookmarks, etc. It is based on FreePascal's video and keyboard units.
A multi-threaded scripting language targeting logic embedding and interface development.
A modern platform independent OO language with a native JIT compiler.

LinOTP is a solution for strong two-factor authentication with one time passwords. It features a modular architecture into which UserIdResolver, authentication, and OTP calculation modules can be plugged. It includes UserIdResolver modules for LDAP/AD, SQL, and flat file user databases, and authentication modules for PAM and RADIUS. New modules can be developed easily. Supported tokens are HMAC-OTP/HOTP (RFC 4226/ OATH compliant), Aladdin eToken PASS, eToken NG-OTP, Safeword Alpine, Yubikey, Google Authenticator, motp, SMS OTP/Mobile TAN, email token, and a Simple Pass token for users without token hardware. TOTP is supported, along with a new algorithm for daily passwords for applications not supporting RADIUS. OCRA tokens are supported to allow transaction signing in banking environments. CLI, Web, and GTK+ GUI clients are available for management. LinOTP features multi-client capability, redundancy, and a self-service portal. It has been used with PAM for local and SSH logins, Apache, VPN, and Windows Terminal Server, and is OATH certified.
OpenTBS is a PHP tool that helps you to make OpenOffice and MS Office documents using templates. You first design your template using OpenOffice or MS Office, and then OpenTBS merges it with data that you supply from PHP code and databases. It has facilities to manage pictures. The resulting documents are saved to file, served for download, or returned as a string. In fact, OpenTBS can merge any OpenDocument files, any OpenXML files, and any XML files compressed in a Zip archive. No extra exe file is required and it makes no temporary files, since all work is done in memory. OpenTBS is based on the TinyButStrong template engine.
OpenOTP is an implementation of the HOTP protocol using a ZeitControl Cardsystems ZC3.9 BasicCard and standalone balance reader, standalone Spyrus PAR2 (Personal Access Reader), or PCSC-Lite supported smart card reader. Included is a C library implementation of the HOTP protocol and associated user database management, HOTP PAM library, OpenVPN plug-in module, micro RADIUS server with HOTP support, and utilities for managing the smart card, Spyrus reader, and host side HOTP user database. The PCSC-Lite API provides reader support for smart card management.
The HOTP Toolkit package contains tools that are useful when deploying the one-time password HOTP technology. It contains a shared library, a command-line tool to generate and validate one-time passwords, and a PAM module (pam_hotp) to make system login or SSH use HOTP one-time passwords for authentication.
RCDevs OpenOTP Server provides two-factor authentication with one-time passwords (OTP). It supports OATH RFC-4226 HOTP (Event-based) and TOTP (Time-based), OCRA (Challenge-based), Mobile-OTP, YubiKey Software/Hardware Tokens, SMSOTP, MailOTP, and OTP lists. It provides a SOAP/XML, RADIUS, and OpenID APIs and integrates into your LDAP (OpenLDAP, Novell, ActiveDirectory). It works with Web applications, VPNs, Linux PAM, Microsoft, and more. It is composed of the RCDevs WebADM server application, the OpenOTP SOAP service, the OpenOTP Radius Bridge, the User Self-service Desk, and Token Self-enrollemnt end-user Web application. VMWare appliances and Web demos are available.
Nowadays, a simple password is not enough anymore! Multi-OTP is an OATH-certified PHP class, a Web interface, and a powerful command line tool that can be used to authenticate and manage OTP user tokens for strong two-factor authentication. It can create, update, and delete tokens to authenticate users with one time passwords (OTP). The users' data are stored in files. The class can also check the user token using several algorithms: Mobile OTP (MOTP), OATH/HOTP (RFC 4226), and OATH/TOTP HOTP Time Based (RFC 4226 extension). It works with compatible software tokens (iPhone, Android, PalmOS, Nokia, and other Java J2ME capable phones) and hardware tokens (such as Feitian, ZyXEL, Authenex, or Seamoon). The multiotp command line utility is also provided, both in "compiled" form (for Windows) and in source code (for Linux or educational purpose). The multiotp command line can be combined with FreeRADIUS (under Linux) or the free TekRADIUS LT (under Windows) in order to have a powerful radius strong authentication server.
RCDevs OpenID Provider is an OpenID 1.1 and 2.0 provider with simple registration and multiple OpenID URL formats. Compared to other OpenID provider implementations, RCDevs OpenID Provider is extremely easy to implement: provided that you have a working WebADM server, installation just consists of adding the OpenID WebApp in WebADM and adding a markup in the index page of your public Web site. The RCDevs OpenID Provider works with LDAP and OpenOTP authentication back-ends. With OpenOTP, your OpenID users can authenticate with any OpenOTP one-time password mechanism (Soft Tokens, SMSOTP, MailOTP, Yubikey, MobileOTP). RCDevs OpenID Provider supports both query-string-based OpenID URLs and hostname-based OpenID URLs. An example of the format using a query string is "http://rcdevs.com/?user=myuser&domain=mydomain" and an example of the format using a hostname is "http://myuser.mydomain.rcdevs.com/".
GA4PHP is a class for PHP that allows a coder to provide a method for allowing two-factor authentication for users. Primarily focused on the Google authenticator for iOS, Blackberry, and Android, the system can also support hardware and software tokens based on the TOTP and HOTP standards. The system is designed such that a programmer would simply extend the PHP class to provide storage for the token data.
The OATH Toolkit makes it easy to build one-time password authentication systems. It contains shared libraries, commandline tools, and a PAM module. Supported technologies include the event-based HOTP algorithm (RFC4226) and the time-based TOTP algorithm (RFC6238). OATH stands for Open AuTHentication, which is the organization which specifies the algorithms. For managing secret key files, the Portable Symmetric Key Container (PSKC) format described in RFC6030 is supported.
RCDevs TiQR is an innovative way to authenticate yourself to Web applications. Its unique user friendly features include one-click enrollment using QR codes and secure authentication without having to re-type complicated codes by leveraging dynamic QR codes embedded in Web pages. TiQR supports the OCRA suite of authentication protocols. Its security is based on AES 256-bit encryption and the SHA family functions.

NFL Personnel folks didn't have to travel far this week.
After this past week's East West Shrine Game at the Citrus Bowl in Orlando, NFL Draft season shifts from Florida to Mobile, Alabama for the Senior Bowl.
Saturday's game from Ladd-Peebles Stadium will air at 4pm on NFL Network. Senior Bowl practices will also air throughout the week on NFL Network.
Baltimore Ravens General Manager Ozzie Newsome, Director of Player Personnel Eric DeCosta and Director of College Scouting Joe Hortiz lead a group representing the organization in Alabama.
Before I continue to with my player profiles, I remind you of the players we have already profiled.
QB-Ricky Dobbs (Navy), Pat Devlin (Delaware)
FB-Anthony Sherman (UConn)
RB-Evan Royster (Penn State), Da'Rel Scott (Maryland)
WR-Lester Jean (Florida Atlantic), Terrence Toliver (LSU)
OT-Matthew O'Donnell (Queens University Canada)
DE-Justin Trattou (Florida)
S-Jermale Hines (Ohio State)
With the only movement for the organization this week being the (reported) extension the team gave K Billy Cundiff, there's no movement in my "biggest areas of need"…
1. Defensive End
2. Offensive Tackle
3. Wide Receiver
4. Cornerback
5. Fullback
6. Inside Linebacker
7. Safety
8. Center
9. Running Back
10. Quarterback
Now here's a look at 10 players participating in this week's Senior Bowl who you should keep an eye out for.
WR Leonard Hankerson (Miami)
Look, I don't want to watch this video again any more than any other Terrapins fans reading this. But the 1:40 mark is a perfect example of something Hankerson could bring to Charm City…
Here's what we know. Hankerson is 6'2″ (205 pounds), but can both stretch the field and get up and get balls-although maybe not quite as well as some of the 6'4″ and 6'5″ receivers available.
Hankersoon broke Hurricanes single season records in 2010 with 72 catches, 1,156 yards and 13 touchdowns. He had 75 receiving yards or more in eight of the Canes' 13 games his senior year.
Those single season records come from a school that produced the likes of Andre Johnson, Santana Moss and Michael Irvin just as a reminder.
There really aren't any red flags with Hankerson. There are no obvious character flaws (although he'll certainly be picked apart when he reaches the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis) and he served as a team captain in Coral Gables last season.
If he was two inches taller, he'd be a slam dunk. If he's on the board in the 2nd or 3rd round he might still be.
LB Mark Herzlich (Boston College)
The good news for Mark Herzlich is that no matter what happens in his quest to reach the NFL, he already has enough material for writing his first book.
Herzlich is best known now for his recovery from Ewing's sarcoma, a form of bone cancer that caused him to miss the entire 2009 season. But before getting cancer, Herzlich was on his way to being a potential Top 45 pick in the NFL Draft.
In '08, Herzlich tallied 110 tackles, two sacks, two forced fumbles, six interceptions and two TD returns. He was an absolute wrecking machine.
He was still one of the better linebackers in the ACC when he returned in 2010, but he didn't post the same type of season. He finished with just 65 tackles, but still forced two fumbles and brought down four interceptions.
He looks like he can still perform at a very high level, but it isn't a guarantee. NFL teams will take his recovery into account, but they will look at both the positive and negative aspects.
On the positive side, he's a solid human being who has already shown the ability to to overcome adversity.
On the negative side, teams will have to at least CONSIDER the possibility that he might not ever regain the dominance he showed in Chestnut Hill before his diagnosis.
He might very well be a hell of a player, perhaps the exact type of defender the Ravens could line up next to Ray Lewis and let him learn from the future Hall of Famer.
Neat story-Herzlich was such an impressive athlete coming out of Conestoga High School (Pennsylvania) that was actually offered a lacrosse scholarship by Dave Pietramala at Johns Hopkins. Doesn't make him a better option, just a neat story.
OT Gabe Carimi (Wisconsin)
While Carimi will almost certainly at least START his National Football League career as a Right Tackle, his 6'7″, 325 pound frame will make some scouts think of him as a Left Tackle of the future.
Carimi's representatives will ABSOLUTELY throw around the name of Cleveland Browns Pro Bowl Tackle Joe Thomas during Draft season. Thomas was also a dominant O-Line force for the Badgers, although he was thought to be more of a slam dunk at the NFL level than Carimi has been thus far.
Not only does Carimi have a solid ability to protect the passer, but he showed quite the ability to run block as well. The Badgers finished second in the league in rushing, just five yards behind Illinois. RB John Clay rushed for over 1,000 yards despite missing two games.
Mobile is a big week for Carimi. Indy will be a big week for him as well. His size and his success in the Big Ten (not only did he take care of NFL prospect/Ohio State DE Cameron Heyward for the most part in the video above, he also handled NFL prospect/Iowa DE Adrian Clayborn as well) combined with a strong Draft season could push him to the Top 10 in the Draft.
But much like Michael Oher, if he's around in the early to mid 20's (especially at 26), the Ravens might not think twice to grab him. With Jared Gaither's future in Baltimore in question, the Ravens could be wise to try to bookend Oher and Carimi moving forward.
LB Casey Matthews (Oregon)
As NFL fans watched Matthews lead the Ducks against the Auburn Tigers in the BCS Championship Game out in Glendale, many of them thought to themselves, "this guy could really help my team."
Some of those same NFL fans will be watching Clay Matthews (III) lead the Green Bay Packers against the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Super Bowl next week and will think to themselves "my team needs to get his brother."
It's with that in mind that I point out Casey Matthews ISN'T Clay Matthews. It doesn't mean he isn't a good player that could help NFL teams, it just means he isn't the type of sack machine his brother has been.
Casey Matthews is more of inside linebacker, perhaps the type of player that could step in and learn the WILL spot that Jameel McClain, Dannell Ellerbe and Tavares Gooden have failed to nail down.
Matthews is 6'1″ and 232 but isn't quite as quick as a number of other inside linebackers. He averaged over 69 tackles a season from his sophomore year to his senior in Eugene; adding eight sacks, four interceptions and a forced fumble over the same three year span.
The NFL is clearly in his blood. Not only is his brother an All-Pro performer, his father (Clay Jr.) was a four time Pro Bowler over a 19 year career with the Browns and Atlanta Falcons. His grandfather (Clay Sr.) played for the San Francisco 49ers in the 1950's. His uncle (Bruce) was a Hall of Fame OL for the Houston Oilers. His cousin (Kevin) is a lineman for the Tenneessee Titans. His cousin (Jake) just finished his freshman season at Texas A&M and could well reach the NFL too.
He looks like he could hang around for awhile on Draft weekend. If he's available into late Friday night or Saturday, he could end up being a steal for the Ravens.

DE Allen Bailey (Miami)
The Ravens need a Defensive End. Unfortunately for them, Bailey has looked better on the inside of the D-Line in Mobile-at least according to CBSSports.com.
Bailey measured in at 6'3″, 278 pounds in Mobile; which reportedly left him at a not-so-surprising disadvantage when matched up against the better Offensive Tackles participating in the Senior Bowl. It might be nothing more than a blip on the radar screen for a player who will eventually become a dominant Rush End. It might be a sign that Bailey will never truly be an End at the NFL level.
Bailey showed an ability to get after Atlantic Coast Conference quarterbacks, but that doesn't necessarily translate to the next level. He tallied 102 tackles and 19 sacks over his final three seasons with the Canes. He has the moves, but the power is a question.
He might prove to be an effective interior lineman at the next level. But if the consensus is that he'll be a Defensive Tackle in the NFL, he probably won't be the guy for the Ravens in the first or second round.
WR Austin Pettis (Boise State)
Yep. That's impressive.
There's a lot that's impressive about the former Broncos receiver. First, he's 6'3″ and can get up (as you saw in the video). Second, he's quick. He's expected to be able to run in the 4.5's at LucasOil Stadium.
Pettis finished his career with 229 catches for 2,838 yards and 39 touchdowns. In BSU's 2010 Labor Day upset of Virginia Tech at FedEx Field, Pettis also blocked a punt and held for an extra point. Later in the season he even THREW for a touchdown.
Clearly some of Pettis' impressive numbers came from being part of a high-powered WAC offense that included Heisman Trophy QB candidate Kellen Moore and fellow Senior Bowl WR Titus Young. The question will be whether or not he can still be effective at the NFL when a team doesn't have the football for as many plays and a coordinator (say…Cam Cameron) isn't calling quite as many passes.
Right now Pettis looks like a potentially dangerous target for QB Joe Flacco if he's available late Friday night or Saturday afternoon. He could be a solid compliment to Anquan Boldin, Derrick Mason and whoever else the team lines up at WR.
RB DeMarco Murray (Oklahoma)
Much like Carimi's reps will do their best to use the words "Joe Thomas" as much as possible during Draft season, Murray's reps will ABSOLUTELY look to use the words "Adrian Peterson" as much as possible during the same stretch.
They'll do well to compare Murray's explosiveness to the fellow former Sooners back. They'll unfortunately also remind NFL personnel that Murray (hamstring, knee, etc.) has a bit of an injury background much like Peterson.
Murray's size (6'1″, 207 pounds) and ability (he once ran a 4.42 40 and recorded a 36.5 inch vertical leap while in Norman) should translate to the NFL with no problem. Murray averaged well over four yards per carry during his career in the Big 12. He ran for 50 touchdowns and caught another 13 over four seasons. The word "explosive" certainly fits.
If he's available in Round 2, the Ravens would likely do well to pair him with current RB Ray Rice, especially if RB Willis McGahee departs.
QB Colin Kaepernick (Nevada)
This much I know. In Reno, there couldn't be a negative word said about Kaepernick. The guy is an ICON.
I understand why. Kaepernick LOOKS like a quarterback. He stands at 6'6″ and weighs in at 225 pounds. He's unbelievably quick, with the capability to run a 4.5 40 (or maybe even under that) at the Combine.
During his four year career with the Wolf Pack, Kaepernick became the only NCAA FBS quarterback to throw for 10,000 yards and rush for another 4,000. He was also the only player to ever have three seasons of 2,000+ passing yards and 1,000 plus rushing yards.
At times (including the team's upset win over Boise State in 2010), Kaepernick looked absolutely brilliant.
There will be one particularly big question mark surrounding Kaepernick during Draft season. NFL personnel folks will have to figure out how much of Kaepernick's success can be tied to Coach Chris Ault's "Pistol Offense." The system was fun to watch and produced explosive numbers-but it isn't a system that will translate to the NFL level. Kaepernick doesn't really have much in the way of injury concerns, with his only notable injury being an ankle sprain against the Terps in the 2008 Humanitarian Bowl.
Kaepernick looks like he could be very good. If he keeps performing at a high level during Draft season, he'll probably be picked too high for the Ravens to consider him as a compliment to Flacco.
OT Nate Solder (Colorado)
As of right now, Solder looks like he could very well be in the mix when the Ravens pick at 26.
If so, he could be a VERY tempting option to join new Offensive Line Coach Andy Moeller's group.
Solder is an enigma. His technique and ability didn't always match his mammoth size (6'9″, 315 pounds) during his Buffaloes career. There were absolutely times where he manhandled players who were clearly matchup problems. There were also times where quicker ends and linebackers were able to move around him.
Reports from Mobile say Solder has struggled against players like Cal's Cameron Jordan, but has impressed against Purdue's Ryan Kerrigan.
He looks like he could be a franchise tackle; but he'll need further development. The Buffs weren't really an offensive juggernaut, but that isn't necessarily Solder's fault.
The question for the Ravens will be whether or not a project like Solder is a good compliment to Oher. It's a fair question. They'll hopefully get an answer as Draft season progresses.
S Jaiquawn Jarrett (Temple)
I've been having trouble trying to figure out exactly how good Jarrett is.
He had a very good career for the Owls, collecting 292 tackles, forcing two fumbles and tallying nine interceptions. He was often the best player on the field during MAC contests.
Yep…no idea.
Jarrett has the look of a NFL player, checking in at 6'2″ and weighing 202 pounds. He's agile and looks good in man coverage. He's not necessarily an Ed Reed-type ballhawk; and might translate better at strong safety at the next level.
He's probably a Friday night guy at this point. With Dawan Landry potentially leaving, he could be an option to get into the mix with Tom Zbikowksi and Haruki Nakamura next season.
