Boren Bails
This isn't good.
Junior-to-be and starting "O" lineman Justin Boren has quit the Michigan football team. Boren, who started at center and right guard, was an All Big Ten honorable mention last season.
Apparently, Boren wasn't thrilled with the new offense and how grueling the first workout was when discussing the new regime 10 days ago.
According to the Free Press article linked above:
(Boren) said he had early thoughts about the process and the difficulty of the new conditioning program and how difficult it was for the offensive linemen having to run constantly back to the line of scrimmage in the no-huddle offense.
"We didn't know what to expect, a lot of screaming and yelling, a lot different, but we'll get used to it," Boren said that day. "It'll just take time."
The O line now returns just one starter. And we have no QB.
You know, one part of me wants to get all Dan Hawkins on Boren's ass and tell him maybe that was part of the problem, maybe things were too complacent and this is how it should be. I seem to recall hearing stories about Bo Schembechler's first year and how players were dropping like flies.
On the other hand, I can't imagine an All Big Ten selection hated hard work so much that that's the reason he quit. Could he? As more of these stories emerge, you can't help but worry if R2 si a good "fit."
Regardless of the reasons for folks leaving, not to get all Chicken Little, but it could be a very long fall. A very long fall.
UPDATE: Our pal Dave at MaizeNBrew is just as pessimistic as I am about the upcoming season and has a very funny post up (in a laughing through the pain sort of way). I especially like his picture of Michigan's projected starter at guard for next season.
UPDATE II: Boren released a statement Wednesday which I just read on the DetNews.com...
"I regret leaving behind my friends and teammates, but I need to stand up for what I know is right. I wore the winged helmet with pride, whether we won or lost, whether things were going well or times were tough.
"Michigan football was a family, built on mutual respect and support for each other from (former) Coach (Lloyd) Carr on down. We knew it took the entire family, a team effort, and we all worked together. I have great trouble accepting that those family values have eroded in just a few months. That same helmet, that I was raised on and proudly claimed for the last two years, now brings a completely different emotion to me, one that interferes with practicing and playing my best and mentally preparing for what is required.
"That I am unable to perform under these circumstances at the level I expect of myself, and my teammates and Michigan fans deserve, is why I have made the decision to leave. To those of you outside the program, the loyal Michigan fans and alumni, I know you will have trouble understanding, but I do want to thank you for your years of support. I wish my teammates the best and will always be proud to have been a part of Michigan football over the past two years."
Sorry, but I don't think this can be simply written off as a guy who didn't like the new Ironman-esque training regimen brought in by R2. Boren's father played for Michigan under Bo, for cryin' out loud. This hints at something worse.
"And later that night when the lights went out of sight came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgeraaaaaaald."

The same things RR is experiencing is EXACTLY what happened to Bo in his first practices too.

Honestly... if he mentioned that workouts were hard... that was most likely part of the reason. Maybe he didn't like the coaching changes to begin, but also the additional hard work made him quit.
I recall someone telling me that UM swimming will do almost the same for walk-on swimmers. You practice for two weeks straight before school starts... swimming twice a day with other conditioning in between... if you don't quit, you're on the team.
Personally... if under the new regime, we have guys quitting because they can't handle the conditioning... I really don't want them, even if they were an all-star.
I keep watching the Justin Feagin video on YouTube and can't help but wonder if he won't be our QB. A few of the throws he makes are 40+ yards and on target... he also throws some intermediate throws that are quite good.
Maybe just being optomistic...

If you think about it, These kids were eating 2 for 1 pizza specials by themselves for training less than 3 months ago. Of course the change is going to be a shock. If he doesn't want to do it, I'd rather not have him on the team. At least he did it now, instead of August.Good luck to him

go w/ your first impression & get all Dan Hawkins.
you ever hear stories out of Morgantown about R2 not being a "good fit"?
practices "too hard"?
winning the sugar bowl and the fiesta bowl being "too dull"?
time for us to face the music and admit Lloyd went easy and the program had gone soft over the last few years. all the quitters so far have been prima donnas w/ huge ego issues and O linemen w/ huge fat rolls.
we ran to the left all last year because we couldn't run to the right - that side of the line was too fat & too slow.
we may struggle next year, but it won't be because of that.

Yost - everyone on here is spot on about RR's new workout plan. You have nothing to fear. If some lazy fat ass thinks workouts necessary for the new offense are too tough, then you obviously don't want him as a part of your offense. There are other kids that will kill to be given the opportunities given to that guy and be up for the challenge.

you guys want to know what's funny? on the espn message boards yesterday, there were some moronic UOS fans saying, "He should transfer to the university of ohio state!" i also heard on a local radio station in cleveland back when mallett transferred, a UOS fan called and said Mallett should transfer to UOS to "get revenge on Michigan." what revenge? he transferred because he did not think he would fit into the system. this would casue someone to want to get revenge on their former team? right. anyway, like i was saying, why on earth would boren transfer to UOS?!?!?!?! no michigan player will ever transfer to UOS and no UOS player will ever transfer to michigan. that is the way of things.

Good point due to the rivalry, but Boren is from Ohio if I read the article correctly. I don't know why he chose Michigan initially, but I doubt he would fit at tOSU at this time.

Boren was a essentially a Wolverine in the womb, so it does strike me as a bit bizarre that he would quit now. There was never a question about where this kid was going to play college ball, so I'm very surprised about this situation.

So it's a family thing. Well, I can understand that part of it.
Is he transferring to play somewhere else or just dropping out of college football?

I'm glad he left. It's better for the whiners to bail than having to cut them off after they've brought everyone else down.
Sucks though. It's a lot of wasted talent that a LOT of other guys playing in DII would work twice as hard for.

Don't go all "Chicken Little" about this. Rodriguez signaled that there was a lot of discontent during several of his publicized interviews, most of which, he implied, was attributable to the new S&C program. This shouldn't come as a surprise. As someone pointed out earlier it is clearly more than a bit of a shock to go from midnight pizza parties with Gittleson to the training facility from hell with Barwis (aka Lucifer, Lord of the Gym).
As for Boren's departure itself, I say good riddance. Really. Next year isn't going to be pretty regardless of whether Boren stayed or left, so why not focus on what this means for the extended future. Let's put it in perspective. WVU won two BCS bowls with guys with half the natural talent of Boren. Barwis' S&C system works. It makes 3 star guys into guys who can play with the big boys. The only disappointing thing is that Boren had a ton of natural talent, and if he bought into this system, who knows? Maybe he goes from honorable mention to first team all Big Ten. He's the real loser here. Not Rodriguez. And definitely not the team. Guys like Boren, Mallett and whoever else is going to be a malcontent need to go. We know Rich Rod can recruit (see the class of 11th hour recruits… snake oil anyone?). He can and will fill the locker room with guys with Boren's talent and then some, who want to be there, who buy into the system, and who can make it work. There's not reason to include those who are going to complain about doing things that will make them better and bring down team morale.
It's been said 100 times previously, but this is what happened to Bo. It's what happened to Bear Bryant. It's what happened/happens to every coach who comes into a new program with deep traditions of doing things one way, and mixes things up. If I could tell Boren one thing it would be this: You don't often run into men who are really happy they chose to opt our of doing something that pushed their limits, but you sure meet a lot of guys who regret it.

One more thing... who is going to want this kid if he is planning on transferring? Seriously? Have you ever seen anything like this:

Of course, those who stay will be champions is also good.
Boren leaving doesn't worry me, however that does not mean that I think that the 2008 season is going to be gravy. It might very well be slightly painful.....but growing pains tend to be that way......patience.

- Andy said...
Yawn. I am not concerned at all. I would much rather have players that are tough than players that are huge.
It was my opinion that Boren was marginal in the old system -- he was basically useless in this system. How he ever made all-b10 I will never know. Clearly a legacy/system vote.
For those of you that are concerned with 2008, take a look at the schedule. Other than UoOS, there really isn't a game we shouldn't win. I certainly don't see more than 3 losses. We will be good next year... and GREAT after that.

The most logical argument I have heard/read/tried to make about this so far:
Our previous complaints included:
we were underachievers
we were too slow
we were too predictable
Then RRod (and Barwis) come and provide an instant supply of energy and change of philosophy and we say:
we're gonna be fast
we're gonna be unpredictable
we're gonna be super tough and well conditioned
we're gonna maximize our talent
So, if RRod and Barwis are supposedly going to take our slow, predictable underachievers and craft them into badass muthers who are faster and better conditioned than our opponents, shouldn't we see some casualties? Didn't we predict this would happen? So, now we have evidence that a transformation is taking place. Great, I hope the squad develops into what we've pined for.
The offense is going to be green and make lots of mistakes. It's not going to carry the team to a championship. Still, I have every confidence that this offense will put a ton of pressure on opposing defenses. Even with so much inexperience I can't think we're going to be easy to defend.
Couldn't have said it better myself, so I won't try. All credit goes to a poster named "Kaiser says so" over at MGoBlog.

It sucks. On one hand, if Boren isn't going to work hard, then we don't want him, as many people have said. On the other, it sucks that he had to be the type that didn't fit with RR's system. We're running short on o-linemen as it is, and we certainly can't afford to lose another OL.
(Yes, this is the same thing that Brian says in a recent post on mgoblog, but I actually said this before he did. I blame the Michigan-hating god for this one.)

How bad can this season be? Lose to App St again?
Honestly, we've had 14 losses in 4 years. Gee! Another 4 loss season? Another 5 loss? Frankly, a losing record is the only humiliation we haven't gone thru. And I'm not sure that is worse than App St.
2008 can't be much worse than the last 4 years. And if it is, we have no way of knowing it wouldn't have been worse anyway?
At least now we have the hope of a better future. We haven't had that in years.

- srudoff said...
you had hope of a better future from this time last year up until kick off of the appy state game no?
all those players returning (although none of them that stayed were champions but i guess a slogan doesn't have to be true to be over-used right?), osu rebuilding, Troy the Wolverine Slayer gone, the GAME in the friendly confines (the stadium formerly known as The Big House, now known as A Big House) - all was right in the world.
Of course hindsight is 20-20 and that hope quickly turned to shit. But it WAS hope, damnit - hell I was pretty sure that you guys were going to do the same thing we did in 2006 - run the table into the championship game. You guys had that swagger going - you know, the kind of swagger that allows you to tell thousands of handicapped people to fuck off and watch the game on TV - and we all believed.
Anyway, while 2008 might be a tough year, I'm sure once rrod gets his band of kinesiology majors ready to play the brand of football that only Pitt and South Florida could stop, everything will be fine again in AA!!!

IMO it is interesting to see what a top team does against mediocre talent. we are going to a pushover, but it will still be interesting (ie. toledo beating a #9 pitt, tearing down the goal posts, breaking some girl's neck who wasn't even at the game) maybe we should schedule arkansas to give mallet a taste of what he is missing...

as usual, you are as thick as a buckeye boosters envelope of cash for a TD.
yeah, everyone has "hope". don't you hope that tuos will beat an sec team in a bowl game? sure. everyone fools themselves, but it's usually a lie.
we lied to ourselves last season, as we had for several, that this year would be different, that this would be the year we open up the offense, get out of the shell, really out score opponents to make up for a weak D. deep down we knew it wasn't true, but we held out false hope.
sort of like you hoping you can beat a ranked team not from purdue or psu? or stop a spread offense. or that your D will actually be better this year w/ out goldstien. that kind of false hope.
but real hope? real expectation for change? that's what we got now. it's also what scares the tuos maggots- we might do something other than run to the left. so crawl back under your rock and hope that usc doesn't show you the real meaning of a dirty mark sanchez come september.

just read your second update and have to ask- just what are you talking about? his note sounds exactly like the crap mallet's camp spit out.
it's apparent that a LOT of kids were used to not working in the off season, not lifting in the off season, and being told constantly just how great they were because they went to michigan.
the fact that his father played here is unfortunately emblematic of the very sort of stupidity that has marked decision making the last few years. so what if he's a legacy? what has that got to do w/ whether he's in shape or can run?
the over arching problem w/ michigan football over the last decade has been the sense of entitlement that has permeated it. you came to michigan, you didn't have to lift weights, you didn't have to run. you sat around resting on your 4 star recruiting rating, eating pizza, and wearing the winged helmet.
his first statements were complaints about running so much. he complained about having to hustle to the line. he didn't like the conditioning. what's changed?
now comes this self serving statement about lack of respect & family. i can tell you what happened- some coach told him he was out of shape and had to work harder. he was told that his dad playing for Bo in 1983 didn't mean shit when it came to playing in 2008. his high school recruiting stars weren't going to block for him next fall.
do you think anyone ever told him before that he was fat & slow? do you think Lloyd or Moeller ever went over the game film of the debacle that was our blocking against tuos and told him that it wasn't going to happen again? that next year's line wasn't going to sit on their fat asses and watch the D go upfield? and that they didn't care what his name was, if he didn't get in shape he wasn't playing?
i'll bet not.
sorry, but the days of picking starters like a country club or union roster are over. kids who don't perform aren't playing. the era of entitlement is gone.
sorry this happened to boren. nice kid and his father was a heck of a player (and his younger brother is a real prospect). however, at the end of the day, it's the same story- he was out of shape and wasn't fast enough and he didn't like being told that. that he felt "disrespected" by that shows how far lloyd had let things drift.

Yowza! SiC, easy boy. It's too early in the year to get your blood pressure meds increased.
A couple of things:
I'm glad you have serious expectations for the maize and blue. You should. Behold! All things have become new. Yet, that doesn't mean the world is shaking in its boots.
The buckeyes have reason to be hopeful this year also. Look at the pre-season analyses. We are expected to do well. I doubt our team is afraid of anyone.
However, expectations mean squat. It all happens on the field. November 22 is the reality check. It would be glorious if our teams meet as undefeateds.
I, for one, am worried about the USC game. I'm glad we scheduled them, but it is quite a risk as was the Texas home and away.
As for beating any SEC team, duly noted. They have our number. End of discussion. Maybe this year we can get that monkey off our back.

This is how I see it panning out after a year or two under the new S&C regimen. As for this Boren and his then said comment. F him. He definitely chicken shitted out of the program because he couldn't hack it and was either told that he would not be a starter anymore or was possibly on the way to being cut from the team. Therefore after announcing he was quitting and the backlash of name calling ensued: Momma's boy, Pansy, Nancy boy, Mar, he was left with no choice but to release a statement backed up by no less than 0 facts that tries to slander the team. Once again F him.

and i don't have a great deal of hope for this next year. 8-4 is probably pretty realistic and not too optimistic. 7-5 not beyond the possibility. however, my point to flagging M fans is that we've gone 8-4 and 7-5 2 of the last 3 seasons. lloyd had already taken us pretty close to the bottom. if we sink lower in 2008, there's no reason to believe we wouldn't have headed south anyway.

IN THIS EPISODE, JOSHUA HELPS THE LESS FORTUNATE OF THE WORLD (with help from our good friend Sally Struthers)
Btw, I recommend visual earmuffs for those who do not enjoy certain crude humor. You've been warned. Carry on.
So I was sitting at work on Wednesday when I got a call from Sally Struthers, and I said
"Holy shit! It's Sally Struthers!"
Which is weird because Sally Struthers and I are BFFs and she calls me all the time (we both belong to Oprah's Book Club) but on Wednesday Sally was all business.
She said "Joshua, I called today because I wanted to know if you could help out some children in Africa."
So I asked Sally Struthers,
"Will this make me feel better about myself, or just help them? And more importantly, will it cut into my MZone browsing time?"
She said it would, and it wouldn't, so I said
"Sweet! sign me up!"
So Sally Struthers said it would cost about the same as a cup of coffee a day, at which point I said
"Would that be a cup of instant coffee, or a Vente double white chocolate mocha with a shot of that almond syrup, skim, no whip, heated to about 120 degrees so I don't burn my mouth?"
...which is also weird, because I don't drink coffee. Sally Struthers said instant- for the price of the other I could buy the kid a cow, 30 acres of corn and a combine, and I thought to myself
"Self, how's a cow supposed to drive a combine to Africa?"
Then I wondered if a cow would be offended by all the burger joints he'd pass on his way, and figured this would probably cause the cow to get his panties in a bunch, because I know if I was driving a combine to Africa and had to pass a bunch of places selling Joshua Burgers my panties would end up in a bunch. And if the cow got his panties in a bunch, this would probably cause a certain discomfort. So then I said to Sally, I said
"Sally, I don't want to be the cause of a fat cow with an aching vagina, I'd rather HELP a fat cow with an aching vagina."
So Sally Struthers and I put our heads together, and I think we came up with a solution: sometime this week Sally Struthers will deliver a tube of Vagisil to Justin Boren, whatever size she can get for "about the price of a cup of coffee".
Sally Struthers, I thank you, and Justin Boren thanks you. (CAll ME!)

From his quote, I got the impression that he didn't appreciate get yelled at, thought he was being disrepected, so quit. To me it speaks to how soft the end of the Bo period was. And make no mistake, the Bo period was from 1969-2007.

I doubt that Bo was soft. He seemed really gruff. Just read any story about his interactions with his players. Hell, read the wikipedia entry on Mike Boren, Justin's father, and read the story about his conversation with Bo.
There is a rumor out there that Justin fucking Boren didn't like the swearing. Apparently RR and his staff drop too many f-bombs. I actually find this credible. It could be a religious values thing. It would also explain Boren's quote about the lack of family values, after only five practices. IMO, that's not the type of thing a player would say just because he is upset about the old, friendlier coach leaving. Lloyd was a father figure and the players still have to get to know RR better, but I doubt that that is the reason for Boren's comments.

I have to go with the general consensus on this one. It's not hard to imagine Boren wanting out because the conditioning program was too much, struggling to find a reason to give his father, former Wolverine stud, as well as a disgruntled fan base, and just concocting a vague story about the loss of family values in the new system. This is nothing more than a kid not being happy with things changing in a way that takes him out of his established comfort zone. It's even tougher for the kid when said comfort zone was probably the corner booth at Bell's Pizza.
Not to totally change the subject, but one of the early comments mentioned Justin Feagin at QB. I like this idea. The YouTube video does show that he can get the ball downfield fairly accurately, but more importantly that the kid can run the triple option effectively and make things happen by himself if necessary. Looking back at the Oklahoma/WVU bowl game, this seems to be the biggest part. The effective execution of the triple option opens up a lot of different things offensively, including the pass. Very rarely did WVU line up in traditional passing formations, often using the option pass to pull in the defense and allow open 20 yard dump passes behind safeties as they moved up to stop the run. This isn't all we would need from a quarterback mind you, but it seemed to be an effective offensive tool, and Feagin seems to be a guy capable of doing it. Additionally, he is accurate on the short/intermediate routes, and seems to have a good sense of when the pocket is collapsing and when to take off downfield.
The biggest question for Feagin is whether or not he can learn the Rodriguez offense over the course of the summer. From the sound of things it's been a struggle for the squad thus far in Spring practice.

Try living across the street from Bell's!! Used to be the deal $5 large cheese pizza and large drink. I think it changed to $5.25 my senior year, and I questioned him... he said, "The cost of cheese rose..."
I wish I had Barwis as my personal trainer... I'd be wanted by every european girl around me... oh right... that's already the case!! hehe

I was discussing the Boren development with my Oklahoma buddy this morning. He said Tressel and his staff were at South Florida this week learning how to stuff the spread offense.
You're in Columbus; any truth to the rumor?
- March 27, 2008 1:23 PM
- Dezzi said...
Hey Whet....
I thought Tressel already stuffed the spread offense by getting Pryor to commit to OSU?
- March 27, 2008 1:31 PM
- whetstonebuck said...
Pryor is an unknown quantity. Stealing him from Michigan was emotional jihad. Maybe he works out; maybe not. Regardless, actually stopping the spread requires a change in defensive strategy. South Florida must know something that Tress and the boys want.
I thought it was an interesting rumor as everyone outside of AA knows that Tressel isn't so stupid as to think he can beat RR with business as usual. That's why both these guys are at the top of their profession.

Dammit... I miss the rumor mill in the US!!
The Swiss don't care too much for college football... but I wouldn't consider Geneva very "Swiss" since almost half are not Swiss...
I'm not concerned with this coming season yet... I'll wait to see how EA Sports ranks us in NCAA Football...

I have a Slingbox hooked up to my sis's Dish Network at home. I have a dedicated box with DVR. I've not really missed a game online. ESPN Online Gameplan saved my ass before that!
I also got the B10 Network this past season... must say... it's nice to have the options.
I've been in Geneva now for almost 4 years... don't plan on leaving anytime soon... if anyone is taking holiday this fall in Switzerland, feel free to look me up and I'll open my apartment to college football saturday evening!!
Funny side story about last season... I was in San Bonifacio, Italy during the Penn State game with no access to the net to watch. I went to a McDonalds in a small Italian village wearing my Michigan hat... a random guy walks in and asks if I went to Michigan, to which I responded yes... He was a PSU alum... so I asked him who won, and the look on his face was obvious!
Just shows you what a small world this is...

Yes, it is true that OSU coaches met with USF coaches. I read about it in Sporting News. The USF DC says that you do something like force the run to the middle. I just hope that RR knows how to react to this strategy.
While it is scary when you consider that USF has beaten WVU two years in a row, you have to look gander at the stats of this year's game:
WVU at USF
WVU still put up 437 yds against USF, including 188 yds rushing. USF had 274 yds total. The score was 21-13, while WVU committed 6 freakin' turnovers--3 fumbles and 3 Int. USF also committed 4 turnovers. Not only that, but Pat White got injured in the first half.
However: WVU was averaging 357 yds rushing in its first 4 games, albeit against weak competition. Point is, SN quotes the USF DC as saying that it is really simple to shut down RR's offense, but it was a tough game. In the future, I think it's safe to assume that RR will have players who are bigger recruits and more talented than his players at WVU. Granted, OSU also has more talented players than USF. I just hope that RR knows how to adjust to game situations.

Man, I'm stoked Boren's leaving. At first, I was worried he might want a sunnier location like Florida (where no grown-ups would yell at sissy-boy) but anyone who could possibly want to go TO that sh!thole in Northern Kentucky, where tools like Sru (as evidenced by his latest gem of a post) litter the area, is clearly insane and should not be playing football anyway.
- March 27, 2008 2:56 PM
- dabearbus said...
Tressel and the boys hitching a ride down to USF is the least of our concerns. As Feelin' Blue pointed out the Rich Rod's offense wasn't exactly a lame duck against USF this past season, and with White's injury it wasn't even close to full strength.
Give sweater-vest some credit though. He's admitting he can't seem to figure it out and he's seeking some outside help from a team that has had the most success in the past. A hell of a lot better than the "we'll get 'em next time with the same gameplan" strategy Carr & Co. embodied the past few years. That said, why would another D-I program offer a team that's been in the BCS National Championship Game the past two years any help whatsoever? What are Tressel's ties in Tampa?

Yeah Dez, it's me. Forgot to change the handle back, it's my non-Mzone alias.

"That said, why would another D-I program offer a team that's been in the BCS National Championship Game the past two years any help whatsoever? What are Tressel's ties in Tampa?"
The profession is a fraternity. They get along better than the fan bases. The article said that USF didn't divulge all of their secrets. I'm not sure what you would withhold that couldn't be figured out, but apparently there are a few things.

The fact that Boren left after a mere 4 (FOUR!) Spring practices under Rodriguez speaks to his character & commitment (read: lack thereof) to his "family". I'm disappointed that one of the most game-experienced members of the team threw in the towel because he couldn't hack it. What an example to set for the younger players who may have looked up to him! His actions have contradicted the point he tried to make in saying that he "wore the winged helmet with pride...whether things were going well or times were tough." What a hypocritical load of bull. Part of me thinks he got a big head after being named Big10 Honorable Mention last year & was simply upset about being reduced to a wind-sucking fatstack during those grueling no-huddle drills. "Unable to perform at a level I'd grown comfortable with," I think might be more fitting. And how dare a college coach scream & yell! I knew Lloyd was a good coach, but I didn't know he was a proponent of Avon© Skin-So-Soft.
Newsflash for you, Justin: that "mutual respect" & "team effort" you talked about? Those left with you when you & the rest of the turncoats gave up on your team.

What is this "Fla debacle" of which you speak?
Do you mean when Florida beat the Buckeyes like they owed them money?
- March 27, 2008 7:25 PM

The solution might be change the schedule so you aren't on vacation for 50-60 days before playing in a championship game. That alone would help immensely.

It is a disappointment that Justin Boren left but Yost I'm not understanding why you are freaking out. This year's class brought in great talent for the O-Line. If a couple of them step up to the plate then it will be just fine.

- Randy said...
I guess this will make some of you angry if it comes to be: Kirk Barton was interviewed on a Columbus radio sports talk show today and he says Manningham told him at the NFL combine that Boren wants to go to Ohio State. If it happens he would become the second person to wear the football uniform for both schools.

The latest is Boren's take on erosion of family values due to RR's colorful language. Apparently, Boren is a little fragile to hear the string of f-bombs coming out of RR's mouth.

The two-year, $66.5-million project breathed new life into the subway station that serves the 2 and 5 lines and is a major link to two major Bronx attractions, the Bronx Zoo and the New York Botanical Gardens. The structure is an example of early 20th Century architectural design that has stood as a community landmark.
"This beautifully renovated station is a tribute to the Bronx and provides an uplifting experience for everyone who passes through it," said MTA Acting Chairman Fernando Ferrer. "I'm very pleased the MTA has restored an element of the Bronx's glory, while improving the daily commutes of its residents."
Work on the station required restoration of the landmark building's exterior walls, windows, stucco work, roof tiles, wood doors and mezzanine areas. There are two retail spaces in the station's lobby, as well as New York City Transit employee facilities for rapid transit operations, signals and structures.
The elevated subway platforms have been rehabilitated, including new platforms, edge safety tiles, canopies and track beds.

The costs for installing laminate flooring in an average kitchen 10 feet by 10 feet can range anywhere from $600 to $1500. This depends on the type of laminate flooring you choose to install in your kitchen. The prices range differently depending on the glued laminate flooring, floating flooring, or the glueless laminate flooring.

The tools for preparation should cost you less than $100, including the cost for renting the saw. You will need many tools for the installation of the kitchen laminate flooring also. These tools include a backsaw and Hudson Falls NY 12839 a miter box for cutting angles in the flooring.

Lafourche Parish is inching closer to a new jail by setting aside money for it in the 2013 budget and discussing more details.
Lafourche Parish is inching closer to a new jail by setting aside money for it in the 2013 budget.
But the $400,000 budgeted for the jail is nowhere near the hypothetical $20 million price tag.
Meanwhile, debate goes on regarding taxes to finance the facility, who should design it and how big it should be.
Councilman Lindel Toups, who chaired the new jail committee, said he is pleased 2012 saw money appropriated to the project and government officials almost agreeing on a financing method without new taxes and who should be the architect.
This is the first time money has been set aside for a new jail.
"If we decide to move forward this way, we can spend it on the land or we can use it to hire an architect or engineer," Toups said.
Though strides have been made toward hiring an architect, there has been an ongoing disagreement between the Parish Council and Parish President Charlotte Randolph on if the parish can hire the council's choice.
After hearing the presentation of a $19 million, 600-bed facility from Louisiana jail magnate Mike LeBlanc, the Parish Council unanimously urged Randolph to hire LeBlanc.
Randolph has stalled on that request arguiing money must be appropriated before the project can be designed.
But now Randolph, who plans to meet with LeBlanc in the new year, said she is warming to LeBlanc's proposal because of provisions for local contractors and engineers she wasn't aware of.
Toups said the $400,000 should allow the architect to be hired, and LeBlanc has offered to draw the designs for a down payment of $10,000.
Even with an architect and $400,000, the parish has not agreed on how to finance the facility.
Legislative Internal Auditor Tommy Lasseigne presented a plan in recent months that rededicates part of the property tax millages benefiting parish libraries and the Council on Aging to the jail.
After lengthy debate, the council agreed to support the rededication of the library's millage, but did not support taking money from the Council on Aging.
Toups said he plans to put the library's millage rededication to voters in March, but a replacement for the Council on Aging's proposed contribution is still unclear.
Randolph said all options are on the table, but money from the BP oil spill settlement could play a role.
Part of the reason the council got behind rededicating the library's millage was the multimillion-dollar surplus the system has built up in recent years.
Toups also mentioned the possibility of considering a new sales tax.
"I think we can do this thing without any new taxes, but we are going to have to sit down and look hard at it," Toups said.
Debate also remains regarding how large the jail should be.
A 600-bed facility with capacity to expand has become Toup's goal since visiting another LeBlanc-designed building in Pine Prairie. LeBlanc said he can design such a facility for under $20 million, which is what all financing plans have been based on since.
Councilman Phillip Gouaux protested adding the $400,000 to next year's budget, saying money shouldn't be set aside until the parish agrees on a size for the jail.
Louisiana's American Civil Liberties Union has also criticized the council for seeking a jail it sees as larger than the capacity needed.
"If you build it, they will come," said the state ACLU's Outreach and Education Director Julie Thibodaux, who suggested the parish will be compelled to jail more people to fill the facility to capacity.
The current jail has a capacity of 244 prisoners, and more than 150 Lafourche inmates are in other parishes for detention.
Thibodaux argued with crime rates slumping nationwide, there should be no need for a facility large than the parish's current needs.
"We can look at who is in jail and try to reduce those prison populations," Thibodaux said. "There are most likely people that could be put on programs and not take up a bed. Lafourche has done some of that. We can always reduce jail size through rehab facilities and tracking monitors."
The parish hasn't properly assessed its need to determine what is necessary, Thibodaux said.
Sheriff Craig Webre has remained neutral on financing for the facility but said he feels the parish should build a 600- to 700-bed facility based on a study contracted three years ago by the National Institute of Corrections.
He disputed Thibodaux's opinion and said the parish's jail population is lower than it would be in an ideal situation because of the "suppression factor."
"Everyone gets two (days credit) for one (day of) good time. That is a policy decision," Webre said. "We could double the jail population by eliminating that."
Webre said incentives like 'two for one' should be used to reward participation in various programs or good behavior, not to reduce the jail population.
He argued the parish is "getting the horse before the carriage" in debating the architect situation before finding sources to pay for the project.

Famed auto executive Bob Lutz returned to Lawrence Tech on June 13 to praise former General Motors CEO Rick Wagoner, not to bury him in the criticism that was highlighted in a recent Detroit News review on Lutz's new book, "Icons and Idiots: Straight Talk on Leadership."
Lutz was an early supporter of LTU's transportation design degree program and its director, Keith Nagara, and he has been to the campus several times. He returned on Thursday to be part of the MAIN Event creative design program that featured a display of iconic cars and an exhibition of projects by LTU transportation design students.
On June 4, a Detroit News review of the new book focused on Lutz's criticism that Wagoner was a perfect "peacetime" CEO who was unprepared for the catastrophe that hit the company when sales plummeted 50 percent during the great recession of 2008-09. Wagoner resigned as GM's CEO as part of the deal with the Obama administration to bail out the company during its bankruptcy
This is the first book by a GM insider that criticizes Wagoner's tenure as CEO and chairman, according to the Detroit News review.
Lutz, who served eight years in the U.S. Marines, started his career with General Motors in Europe. He was executive vice president of sales for BMW, executive vice president of Ford Motor Company, and executive vice president at Chrysler before being brought back to GM by Wagoner as vice chairman of global product development in 2001.
While standing by his assessment that Wagoner was too nice to be a good "wartime" CEO, Lutz pointed out that the new models that have helped turn around GM were developed while Wagoner was CEO. He criticized the media for forgetting how long it takes to develop a new product and giving credit to Wagoner's successor, Edward Whitacre, who replaced him as chairman and later CEO with the Obama administration's blessing.
And even though Wagoner had a background in finance at GM, he had good instincts and strong leadership when it came to design decisions, according to Lutz.
Wagoner was not satisfied with the design that Lutz and his team came up with for a reintroduction of the Camaro because it looked too much like the classic Camaro from the 1960s. Lutz said that the redesign that resulted from Wagoner's intervention was much better.
In contrast, Lutz felt that Chrysler CEO Lee Ioccoca didn't have a good eye for design even though he was known for his skill as a marketer and a promoter.
Lutz's new book is filled with anecdotes about leaders he has worked for in the auto industry.
He also had high praise for another speaker at the MAIN Event, Anne Asensio, vice president of design experience at Dassault Systemes. He credited her for bringing about real change in the GM corporate culture when she was executive director of design there.

Creel previously served as the executive vice president and chief operating officer of Canadian National. Reporting to Creel will be Jane O'Hagan, EVP & CMO, Scott MacDonald, SVP Operations System, Guido De Ciccio, SVP Canadian Operations and Doug McFarlane, SVP US Operations.
"Keith joins CP after a very successful operating career where he rose from a management trainee in the operations department at Burlington Northern in 1992 to becoming EVP & COO at CN in 2010," said E. Hunter Harrison, CP's CEO. "I have worked with many talented operating people in this industry over the last four decades and Keith is by far one of the best young operating talents that I have ever seen," continued Harrison. "Canadian Pacific recently began its transformational journey to becoming the best railroad in North America and we look forward to benefiting from Keith's strong leadership and operational expertise as we move forward."
In other news, CN reached a settlement with CP and Harrison that ends outstanding litigation between the railroads before the Federal Court in Chicago, Ill. The majority of the settlement terms remain confidential. However, part of the settlement made public states that CP will not hire certain CN employees until Dec. 31, 2016.
Regarding Creel's move to CP and the news of the settlement, CN CEO Claude Mongeau said, "We wish Keith success in his new role and are pleased to turn the page with respect to the matter of CP's hiring of CN's former CEO, Hunter Harrison. The settlement arrived at will allow CN and CP to focus on their respective agendas and create value for their customers and shareholders."

The word "abandon" has deep negative meaning: to forsake utterly, to desert; to give up or withdraw from. It is a tragedy when people are abandoned, an eyesore when buildings are abandoned. We notice old possessions abandoned in the garbage.
So "Art Abandonment" could mean art that has been cast away carelessly or without regard. In fact, the term means just the opposite, and a group of local artists is participating in this new global movement.
Art Abandonment was started by Michael de Meng, an internationally known assemblage artist who lives in Vancouver, B.C., and teaches all over the world.
De Meng's work "is about transformation of the common into the sacred. Discarded materials find new and unexpected uses in my work; they are reassembled and conjoined with unlikely components, a form of rebirth … metaphors for … the world in perpetual flux, where meaning and function are ever-changing," he explained in his artist statement.
Occasionally, starting about a decade ago, de Meng would leave a piece of art in a public place for a stranger to find. After posting some images on Facebook, a few friends suggested the formation of a group for like-minded individuals to share similar exploits. And the Art Abandonment Facebook group was born in June.
The group's mission is to encourage random acts of art, left in locations all around the globe. The idea is that an artist can make something and leave it for a lucky unsuspecting person to find. Artists then post locations and photos of abandoned goodies — and finders can let everyone know the fate of the art.
"I was amazed and flabbergasted!" de Meng said of the response.
Within the first week of the Facebook group, 2,500 members had signed on. Today, there are about 6,300 members. Giving art away as a way to share creativity and joy has become a popular activity.
Jane Powell, owner of Random Arts in Saluda, has brought de Meng to her shop to teach his assemblage art for several years now. During one of her "Try It Tuesdays" this past summer, she and other artists were talking about the new Art Abandonment group and agreed to participate.
"Since then, I've left art on library shelves, on a seat at the airport and in hotel lounges," Powell said. Her works are usually card-sized — maybe a drawing on a napkin with a note saying that it is free for the taking.
Sometimes these random acts of art are wrapped, sometimes they are in baggies. Always they have a note that exclaims "You've won!" in one way or another. The Facebook group page has printable tags to use, or artists can create their own.
Why does Powell do this?
"I guess it's kind of like paying it forward," she explained.
"There's the anticipation of surprise for someone else as well as hoping that whoever finds it will like the art. You put time and love into it, and then you pass it on."
Meg Fowler of Hendersonville is another Art Abandonment donor. She creates mixed-media art, is a huge fan of de Meng and has left several types of art for the finding: small hand-bound books, a necklace and small post-card sized fiber quilts. She leaves them in public restrooms, the library and other public places.
"I think it is a nice idea," Fowler said. "I would love to be there hidden to see the reaction of the person who finds the pieces! But the Facebook group has letters written by finders that lets me know how much people appreciate this."
She recalled one letter written by a woman whose sister had died the day before she found an abandoned piece of art.
"It meant a lot to her that she was given that gift," Fowler said.
Phyllis Peterson of Hendersonville was one of the women who participated in that first discussion at Random Arts last summer.
"I found my niche in mixed media three years ago through Random Art's classes and workshops," Peterson said. She has left her watercolor faces in numerous places, including the Fresh Market, Starbucks and automobile service waiting rooms.
"When I left my art at Starbucks, I bought a cup of coffee and waited to see who picked it up. It was by the cups, so several people saw it," she recalled.
"It was interesting, though, that although some people read the card that said it was a free gift, they did not take it! I actually had to leave before someone picked it up and kept it."
She found it interesting that some people are hesitant to take a handmade piece of art that is free.
"I left one in Michael's store one time. I went back the next day, and it was still there. I think it is interesting that they are not snatched up right away!" she exclaimed.
So why does Peterson continue to abandon art?
"I am also a member of a group called Random Acts of Kindness," she said.
"I do it to share and to raise awareness because so many people just don't think about art."
Those who find the art and comment are often artists themselves, or are people who have suffered some kind of loss, and the gift gives them a much-needed boost, she said.
Anyone can join the Facebook group — or abandon art on their own.
As de Meng said, "In this day and age when money is tight, this is a way of encouraging folks to stay involved in the arts. Oh, sweet abandon!"
Abandoned works a hit with artists
The word "abandon" has deep negative meaning: to forsake utterly, to desert; to give up or withdraw from. It is a tragedy when people are abandoned, an eyesore when buildings are abandoned. We notice old possessions abandoned in the garbage.

ForĀEntangle's six songs, KYDĀcollaborated with four producers from Canada and the US.
The first three songs "Virus", "Paralyzed", and "Love Again" are the brainchild of ANI KYD and Vancouver, BC punk composer Stephen Hamm (SLOW, THE EVAPORATORS, TANKHOG, and CANNED HAMM) which sound like theme songs from an unreleased 1960s JAMES BOND movie.Ā
Composer Damien Wallace and KYD collaborated on the fourth song "Taking A Leap," which combines an attack upon organized religion with a voice so sweet it could confuse the church-going masses.
The fifth song is a collaboration with Alternative Tentacles veteran Ralph Spight (VICTIMS FAMILY, JELLO BIAFRA AND THE GUANTANAMO SCHOOL OF MEDICINE, FREAK ACCIDENT). It's the weirdly robotic, insanely catchy and certainly twisted tune, "Box of Broken Toys."
The final song is a simple, catchy rock tune ANI KYD wrote with her long-time collaborator Marc L'Esperance (COAL, PETUNIA AND THE VIPERS, CUB, LINDA MCRAE, ANI KYD). L'Esperance has also produced and engineered projects for everything from the rockabilly twang of RAY CONDO to the precise punk rock genius of NOMEANSNO.
A star on her own or with her band Fuel Injected .45, Kyd has a powerful voice that's been compared to Siouxsie Sioux and Jim Morrison. A feather in our digital cap, Entangle also comes with a download booklet.

These funds support construction of a planned 3.3-mile streetcar line to help revitalize Detroit's Woodward Avenue corridor. M-1 Rail, a coalition of private-sector philanthropic and business leaders, has committed more than $100 million toward construction and operation of the $137-million project. The remainder will be funded by state and local sources.
"I applaud Michigan's leaders for coming together to support a regional vision for public transportation that will improve access to jobs, education, medical care and other destinations for residents in the Detroit metro area," said U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood.
The streetcar funding announcement comes just weeks after Michigan Governor Rick Snyder signed into law critical legislation creating a Regional Transportation Authority to develop and more-efficiently operate public transportation projects in metropolitan Detroit and across the state.

"In the olden days the immense pressures of making the trip across the Atlantic locked in the hull of a ship wreaked psychological havoc on the traveler. The same, then, must hold true today. The tapes that Scott Henderson (Show Business Giants) and Andy Kerr (Nomeansno) have been mailing each other between Vancouver and Amsterdam have started crawling around with a life of their own. What started as an innocent experiment in lo-fi-by-mail has turned into something distinctly disturbing with The Making of Him. The surreal passages of the epic "Croggy to Nowhere" shuffles out of the grave of European history only to lie down and die in Zarathustra's cave with the opener, "Anti-fascist Song for Mom." Even the more upbeat numbers such as "The Making of Him" and "Rel by Prox" push the listener into a corner without dessert.The quirkiness that the Show Business Giants have become known for finds its way onto this album, and prevents it from being an absolute old-sweat nightmare. Songs like "Musik" and some of the later experimental ear candy provide ample relief without sacrificing too much of the balance."- Vox
"The making of Hissanol is the mailing of tapes across the Atlantic, between two participants who take turns adding their tracks to the whole. Like a conversation held with a long satellite delay, the conceptual gaps have an awkward beauty. The message was said, but not explained. Consequently, the aural combinations Hissanol comes up with are built from what is heard, not what is wanted, and the results are nothing short of cathartic. One Hissanol might riff like Black Sabbath at 78, while the other might be singing about "Loggins and Messina Reunion": "Your mama don't dance/and your daddy's Russ Tamblyn/dinner tonight is veal and ricotta." Mind you, "Loggins and Messina Reunion" is also notable for its surf-inspired chorus. The insanely chugging "Musik" features oblivious ramblings in the foreground, from the sound of it a British professor, while a rolling rhythm section hypnotizes with a sound reminiscent of the Dog-Faced Hermans.Hissanol is the sonic equivalent of a funhouse - suddenly, the floor isn't level anymore. It's tricky, but not so much you lose your balance.- Ink
