The invention relates to radio frequency identification (RFID) systems for article management.
Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) technology has become widely used in virtually every industry, including transportation, manufacturing, waste management, postal tracking, airline baggage reconciliation, and highway toll management. A typical RFID system includes a plurality of RFID tags, at least one RFID reader or detection system having an antenna for communication with the RFID tags, and a computing device to control the RFID reader. The RFID reader includes a transmitter that may provide energy or information to the tags, and a receiver to receive identity and other information from the tags. The computing device processes the information obtained by the RFID reader.
In general, the information received from an RFID tag is specific to the particular application, but often provides an identification for an article to which the tag is fixed. Exemplary articles include manufactured items, books, files, animals or individuals, or virtually any other tangible articles. Additional information may also be provided for the article. The tag may be used during a manufacturing process, for example, to indicate a paint color of an automobile chassis during manufacturing or other useful information.
The transmitter of the RFID reader outputs RF signals through the antenna to create an electromagnetic field that enables the tags to return an RF signal carrying the information. In some configurations, the transmitter initiates communication, and makes use of an amplifier to drive the antenna with a modulated output signal to communicate with the RFID tag. In other configurations, the RFID tag receives a continuous wave signal from the RFID reader and initiates communication by responding immediately with its information.
A conventional tag may be an "active" tag that includes an internal power source, or a "passive" tag that is energized by the field created by the RFID reader. In either case, the tags communicate using a pre-defined protocol, allowing the RFID reader to receive information from one or more tags. The computing device serves as an information management system by receiving the information from the RFID reader and performing some action, such as updating a database. In addition, the computing device may serve as a mechanism for programming data into the tags via the transmitter.
Conventional antennas for RFID readers have a single inductive loop and operate in a relatively high frequency range, e.g., 3 megahertz (MHz) to 30 MHz. Consequently, these antennas tend to create magnetic fields that suffer from "holes," i.e., regions in which an RFID tag cannot be read even though the RFID tag is located relatively near the antenna. For example, depending on the orientation and location of the article to which the RFID tag is affixed, in some situations the RFID tag may be centered above a single turn of the inductive loop of the antenna during interrogation. In this situation, substantially equal current may be imposed on opposite sides of the RFID tag, which leads to a cancellation effect. As a result, the RFID tag may not be able to achieve RFID communication with the reader.
In addition, conventional antennas used with desktop RFID readers tend to create magnetic fields that extend horizontally beyond the edges of the antennas. Consequently, articles placed proximate the antenna, e.g., next to the antenna on the desktop, may be inadvertently read by the reader, which can lead to undesired results. For example, books associated with one library patron and located next to an antenna in a library management system may be inadvertently checked out to another patron.
In general, a field-shaping antenna and shielding component are described that shape the magnetic field into a desirable configuration for use in an RFID system. More specifically, a dual-loop antenna is described in which the loops are positioned and spaced in a manner that reduces the size of the holes within the resulting magnetic field. In addition, the configuration of the described dual-loop antenna achieves increased field size relative to a single loop antenna with equivalent power and decreases inter-winding capacitance, thereby increasing overall read range achieved by the antenna.
In addition, a conductive shield is described that further refines and shapes the magnetic field produced by the antenna. For example, the antenna may be positioned substantially horizontally on a desktop or countertop. The conductive shield may be oriented parallel to the plane of the antenna, including located in the same plane as the antenna, and generally surrounding the antenna to limit the extent to which the electromagnetic field extends horizontally beyond the edges of the antenna. As a result, an electromagnetic field is produced that generally projects above and below the antenna, thus defining a generally vertical communication zone in which RFID tags can be read.
In one embodiment, a multi-loop antenna comprises a plurality of conductive loops to produce an electromagnetic field for radio frequency identification (RFID) communication with RFID tags. The conductive loops are spaced apart at least a distance that is selected based on a dimension of the RFID tags with which the antenna communicates.
In another embodiment, a radio frequency identification (RFID) system comprises an RFID tag associated with an article, and an antenna having a plurality of conductive loops to produce an electromagnetic field for communication with the RFID tag. The conductive loops are spaced at least a distance that is selected based at least in part on a dimension of the RFID tag.
In another embodiment, a radio frequency identification (RFID) system comprises an antenna that forms an electromagnetic field for communication with RFID tags, wherein the antenna has a substantially planar form. A substantially-contiguous conductive shield is positioned around the antenna and within a plane parallel to the antenna.
The details of one or more embodiments of the invention are set forth in the accompanying drawings and the description below. Other features, objects, and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the description and drawings, and from the claims.
In general, RFID system 2 operates within a frequency range of the electromagnetic spectrum, such as 13.56 MHz, with an allowable frequency variance of +/−7 kHz. However, other frequencies may be used for RFID applications, and the invention is not so limited. For example, some RFID systems in large storage areas such as a warehouse may use an RFID system that operates at approximately 900 MHz.
As illustrated in
Exit control system 5 includes lattices 9A and 9B which define an interrogation zone or corridor located near the exit of protected area. The lattices 9A and 9B include antennas for interrogating the RFID tags as they pass through the corridor to determine whether removal of the item to which the tag is attached is authorized. Exit control system 5 may utilize at least one RFID reader (not shown) to drive the antennas. To detect a tag, the RF reader outputs RF power through the antennas to create an electromagnetic field within the interrogation corridor. In general, the terms "electromagnetic field" and "magnetic field" are used interchangeably herein as the magnetic component is used to couple with the RFID tags.
The RF reader receives information from any tags present within the interrogation corridor, and exit control system 5 determines whether removal of the article is authorized. If removal of the article is not authorized, exit control system 5 initiates some appropriate security action, such as sounding an audible alarm, locking an exit gate, etc.
In addition, RFID system 2 includes a check-in/check-out area 11 by which an authorized person, e.g., a library patron or staff member, processes articles for removal or return. In particular, check-in/check-out area 11 includes an RFID reader 18 for interrogating RFID tags fixed to articles and changing their status as desired, e.g., checking-in or checking-out the articles.
In addition, articles may be positioned in a number of storage areas 12, e.g., on an open shelf 12A, a cabinet 12B, a vertical file separator 12C or a other location, as shown in
The RFID tags themselves may take any number of forms without departing from the scope of the present invention. Examples of commercially available RFID tags include 3M™ RFID tags available from 3M Company, St. Paul, Minn., or "Tag-it" RFID transponders available from Texas Instruments, Dallas, Tex. An RFID tag typically includes an integrated circuit operatively connected to an antenna that receives RF energy from a source and backscatters RF energy in a manner well known in the art. The RFID tag modulates the RF energy providing a backscattered signal to communicate information about the RFID tag and its associated article.
An article management system 14 provides a centralized database of the tag information for each article in the facility. Article management system 14 may be networked or otherwise coupled to one or more computers so that individuals, such as a librarian, at various locations, can access data relative to those items. For example, a user may request the location and status of a particular article, such as a book. Article management system 14 may retrieve the article information from a database, and report to the user the last location at which the article was located within one of the smart storage areas. Optionally, article management system 14 can re-poll or otherwise re-acquire the current location of an article to verify that the article is in the location indicated in the database.
As described in further detail below, RFID system 2 incorporates the techniques described herein. Check-in/check-out area 11 and RFID reader 18, for example, may incorporate a field-shaping dual-loop antenna 13 and a conductive shield 16 that produce a magnetic field in a desirable configuration. For example, RFID reader 18 may incorporate dual-loop antenna 13 described herein in which the loops are positioned and spaced in a manner that reduces the size of the holes within the resulting magnetic field. In addition, the configuration of the described dual-loop antenna 13 achieves increased field size relative to a single loop antenna with equivalent power and decreases inter-winding capacitance, thereby increasing overall read range achieved by RFID reader 18.
In addition, check-in/check-out area 11 may utilize a conductive shield 16 to further refine and shape the magnetic field produced by antenna 13. For example, as illustrated, antenna 13 may be mounted substantially horizontally on, within, or below desktop 15. Conductive shield 16 may be located planar to and generally surrounding antenna 13 to prevent the electromagnetic field from extending horizontally beyond the edges of the antenna. As a result, an electromagnetic field is produced that generally projects above and below antenna 13, thus defining a generally vertical communication zone in which RFID tags can be read. Conductive shield 16 may be mounted on desktop 15, or below or within the desktop out of view from library patrons and staff. Conductive shield 16 need not necessarily be electrically grounded to shape the magnetic field as described herein.
Tuning circuit 22 tunes dual loops 20 to a resonant frequency, and provides impedance matching and signal conversion between the loop structure and cable 26, which may be a co-axial cable. Reader 18 is coupled to tuning circuit 22 via cable 26 and utilizes antenna 13 for both RFID transmit and receive operations. Consequently, reader 18 may include a directional coupler to interpret the signal returned from tuning circuit 22.
Due to the configuration of dual-loop antenna 30, current (I) from reader 18 (
In addition, inner loop 32 and outer loop 34 are positioned and spaced so as to reduce the number and/or size of any potential holes within the resultant magnetic field. For example, unlike conventional single-loop antennas, reader 18 may be able to achieve successful communication with an RFID tag positioned directly above a conductive edge of the antenna. More specifically, in this situation a conventional single-loop RFID antenna may produce substantially equal current on opposite sides of the RFID tag, which leads to a cancellation effect. In contrast, an RFID tag centered above an edge of outer loop 34, for example, will achieve increased current on the inner side of the RFID tag due to inner loop 32. Similarly, an RFID tag centered above an edge of inner loop 32, for example, will achieve increased current on the outer side of the RFID tag due to outer loop 34. In either case, the increased current achieves increased energy within the RFID tag, allowing the RFID tag to successfully communicate with RFID reader 18. In this manner, the described configuration of dual-loop antenna 30 may reduce the number and/or size of any holes within the resultant electromagnetic field.
In one embodiment, inner loop 32 and outer loop 34 may be positioned at least a distance D apart, where D is selected based on a dimension of an RFID tag for use within the system. For example, sizes for many conventional 13.56 MHz RFID tags range in dimension from 0.5″×1″ (1.27 cm×2.54 cm) to 2″×3″ (5.08 cm×7.62 cm). Thus, in one embodiment D may be selected to exceed a maximum dimension of the RFID tag to ensure that no RFID tag can be positioned across both of inner loop 32 and outer loop 34, which may be advantageous in increasing the ability of reader 18 to achieve successful communication with the tags regardless of tag location. Consequently, in one embodiment D≧2.54 cm. In another embodiment, D≧5.08 cm.
Although illustrated for exemplary purposes with respect to generally rectangular dual-loops, other forms of loops may readily be used, such as round, oval or other geometric configurations.
Conductive shield 66 may be viewed as four conductive planar regions 65A-65D that form a nearly contiguous conductive shield having a non-shielded inner region 61 around antenna 60. Conductive shield 66 prevents passage of an electromagnetic field, thereby limiting the magnetic field created by antenna 60 to the inner region. In other words, the magnetic field created by antenna 60 extends vertically (e.g., inward and outward from
Conductive shield 66 includes a disconnect area 63 that prevents a closed loop from being formed around antenna 60, thereby preventing current from forming within the conductive shield. In general, disconnect area 63 may have a gap of a minimum distance D4 sufficient to create an electrical disconnect within conductive shield 66 and not substantially reduce the shielding effect of the conductive shield. For example, conductive shield 66 may be conventional copper or other conductive shielding, and distance D4 need not be more than a few millimeters.
In general, conductive shield 66 is located a distance D3 from outer loop 64, and the distance D3 therefore defines the outer-most regions of the tag communication zone created by antenna 60. In other words, D3 defines the outermost limits of non-shielded inner region 61 in which the tags may be read when antenna 60 is driven with sufficient power to generate a magnetic field having sufficient strength to achieve successful communication throughout the inner region.
Each conductive regions 65A-65D has a width of D5, which generally is determined based on the strength of the magnetic field formed by antenna 60. For example, the width D5 of each conductive regions 65A-65D must be sufficient that the field strength at any region beyond, e.g., outside, of conductive shield 66 is below a threshold level necessary for RFID communication. In this manner, conductive shield 66 substantially prevents RFID communication in areas above conductive shield 66 until the field itself has reached a reduced field strength insufficient for RFID communication, which may be at any point between the inner edges and the outer edges of conductive regions 65. Consequently, D5 may be viewed as a minimum width of conductive regions 65, and the conductive regions may have greater widths. For example, conductive regions 65 may be extended beyond the distance D5 for other reasons, e.g., manufacturing simplicity. Moreover, conductive regions 65 need not be of uniform widths, but rather each should preferably exceed the minimum distance D5.
As illustrated in
For this reason, D3 (
In one embodiment, for example, D3 is selected to approximately equal the average of D1 and D2 as follows:
In addition, D2 is selected to equal approximately 1.5*D1. For example, D1, D2 and D3 may equal 2″ (5.08 cm), 3.5″ (8.89 cm), and 2.75″ (6.98 cm) respectively. This particular selection for distance D3 allows the resultant magnetic field created by inner loop 62 and outer loop 64 (

For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. ww2censor (talk) 05:38, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
{{helpme}} I thought I followed the direction. How do you remove the Copyvio? --Proarchivy (talk) 21:31, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
There are very clear details and instruction on how to deal with the copyright violation dispute on the Icabod Flewellen page. Please follow them and, if it was you who posted the text to my talk page, please don't paste your disputed mainspace text into a user page as it will only annoy any editor,unless they request it. This is considered vandalism and may get you blocked. Because you are a registered user please use that account and follow the instructions and maybe your article will be allowed but because your edit on the anonIP page claims that you have written the text it will likely be considered a conflict of interest and besides which you have provided no verifiable sources, so that too mitigates against your edit. Sorry, but verifiability is the cornerstone of Wikipedia. I am also posting this on the anonIP account that I assume, perhaps inaccurately,that you used too for the same purpose of promoting the Icabod Flewellen page. If you and the anon IP are different people please ignore this post but please take onboard the advise given about verifiability, COI and copyright. ww2censor (talk) 02:19, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
- Following your removal of the copyvio tag on the Icabod Flewellen page I have reinstated it and replied in more detail on the talk page. Cheers ww2censor (talk) 04:54, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
January 2008[edit]
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I've noticed that you've been adding your signature to some of your article contributions, such as you did to Icabod Flewellen. This is a simple mistake to make and is easy to correct. For future reference, the need to associate edits with users is taken care of by an article's edit history. Therefore, you should use your signature only when contributing to talk pages, the Village Pump, or other such discussion pages. For a better understanding of what distinguishes articles from these type of pages, please see What is an article?. Again, thanks for contributing, and enjoy your Wikipedia experience! Thank you.

Hi! Just trying to help. Here's another version of copyright permission instructions. Technically it isn't really a problem with copyright as such; it's a problem of proving that there's no copyright problem. I hope the following standard instructions help (not sure if you got these already):
If you believe that the article or image is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:
- If you have permission from the author, leave a message explaining the details at [[Talk:{{{pg}}}]] and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
- If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at [[Talk:{{{pg}}}]] with a link to where we can find that note.
- If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on [[Talk:{{{pg}}}]].
However, for text content, you may want to consider rewriting the content in your own words. Thank you, and please feel free to continue contributing to Wikipedia.
Whichever method you choose, please explain in detail at the article talk page what you did.
Good luck! Feel free to ask me questions on my talk page. --Coppertwig (talk) 23:47, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
- I saw your comments on the helpdesk, but couldn't quite make out what it is you are trying to do, or indeed what exactly it is what is causing difficulties, apart from that it has to do with copyright violations. Could you just explain what you would like to do? Maybe I, or another editor can help you out. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 01:03, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Remember how awesome and clever Futurama was the other night? Well, if you missed it, your chances to see it in its original form might be slowly dwindling. It seems that Comedy Central has wiped out the reference in the dialogue to the "EyePhone 2.0." So, while we don't have any conspiracy theories brewing about what happened, it's a pretty odd thing to scrub, and we figure there are two possibilities: either Comedy Central is trying to cover their <censored> on this one, or they got a late night email from... someone. Thankfully, nothing disappears on the internet, so you can check out both clips and see for yourself after the break.

Diversify your thoughts. I spent too much of my life thinking about money. And then thinking about women. And sometimes thinking about money and women at the same time. I don't know how they counted this but someone once told me we think 60,000 thoughts a day. All 60,000 of mine would sometimes be about money and women, with a little about food and defecation. Meanwhile, there's 100 billion other fun things to think about each day. I live 100 feet from the Hudson River. Across from me on the river is West Point. Mountains and leaves surround all of it. It would be so easy for me to diversify into pleasant things but too often I'm obsessed down one category. Obsession and Anxiety is equivalent to Subtraction of thoughts. It makes you a counterfeit person instead of an authentic person.
The post is about diversifying all areas, but I think he is really onto something with this section on thinking. I definitely tend to obsess over a handful of things throughout the day: usually just food and women. Sometimes something else, too. It could be designing my blog, my krav maga test tomorrow, etc. The thing is, unless I take out a notepad and decide on a next action then record it, I continue to have repetitive, circular thoughts that go nowhere…. except maybe to boobs or cheeseburgers.
The other thing that having limited, repetitive thoughts does is limit your ability to get into flow; therefore hindering your productivity and enjoyment of the task at hand. I believe that by diversifying your thoughts, and appreciating your current surroundings or current task (or something else, I'm not positive here I really need to practice this more), getting into flow will be almost automatic. This is huge.
So, yeah, diversify your thoughts. If you are having a repetitive thought, immediately stop what you are doing and identify the next action and record it; ideally the thought vanishes. The results here could be substantial, shit, ginormous.
Please share any other ways you use to diversify your thoughts below.

Great post - thanks for the reminder - mind was trapped today on how much Diablo 3 still sucks and the Giants loss today. Eddy Azar posted something in a similar vein a month or two back on things he learned in life - namely something about not being able to change your thoughts/feelings but you can change your focus/perception (which in turn changes thought/feeling). Diversifying my thoughts and adding in some Tynan-esque gratitude really got me going again.
> mind was trapped today on how much Diablo 3 still sucks and the Giants loss today
If things that are completely outside of your control draw all of your attention it's even worse.
Gratitude, I like it. Yet another way to diversify your thoughts. I have not thought of it like that before. I have been practicing gratitude lately in the Stoic form of negative visualization, thanks to Tynan's recommendation of A Guide to the Good Life: The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy.
In that same vein, I believe meditation is another example of thought diversification. Errr thought elimination but same idea.
What other methods can we come up with?
I would say people should try to meditate too. It's good for your brain and general health to not be obsessed with thoughts too. Not to mention you gain a better awareness of the thoughts you are having in daily life and how most of them are either completely useless or unhelpful in that moment.
Also, as you mentioned, if a person has the exact same thought all the time then it's likely a lack of action taking place. Which means fear, anxiety. Also indecisiveness. But once you take a lot of actions, you move on to new thoughts. Although they might be in the same category.
Otherwise, I really enjoy talking to different types of people and digging deep into their hobbies, jobs, or whatever. I probably have a bunch of audio and video files on different subjects like Roman History or Architecture, but I don't really care about those subjects so I don't listen to them. But, it's a whole different story if I talk to someone else who is interested in those subjects.
Seems kind of strange to me that he even tackles it from diversifying thoughts and not just diversifying actions, environments, people, etc. There's kind of a limit to how meaningful your thoughts are going to be in a bubble.
I see the value in diversifying your thoughts, but also in taking different vein by actually limiting my thoughts into a singular focus.
For example, what I'm doing is focusing 80% of my thoughts on the making of money. This way, all my thoughts and actions are towards my current first priority: learning how to make money.
Now, on most weekends, I'll stop thinking about money and business and focus instead on being social and relaxing. This keeps me from burning out or ignoring most of my world.
If you have a primary goal, something you wish to achieve more than anything else (be it getting great with women, or being able to make automated income, or whatever else), is it not advantageous to purposefully narrow down your world to that one thing for most of the time? Permanently of course not. But for a couple of months or years, I think it may be.
What do you think?
It is one thing to be absorbed by the activity you are currently performing. It is a entirely different story if you are obsessing over one goal endlessly. I mean, how many unique productive thoughts can you have about getting great with women or making money throughout the course of a day, without actually engaging in a relevant activity.
This is why the Getting Things Done model is so attractive and valuable to me. You divide your life into projects (a goal can have multiple projects) and always identify the very next physical action you can take for each and every project. You then record it. This keeps repetitive, circular thoughts out of your head and allows you to crush the task at hand, which could very well be brainstorming business ideas or meeting women.
What Im saying: if you are thinking about making money all day, and coming up with business plan after business plan that is one thing (and also very rare), but it is a whole different thing to daydream about tits all day.
If someone wants to be great with women doing 2 hours of challenging approaches per day is plenty.
The guy who spends 80% of his time thinking about woman is needy. As all his self esteem is bound up in being successful with woman, rejections will be very painful.
If the guy feels successful in other projects his doing rejections won't be as hurtful.
I logged into my stock account the other day and realized that contrary to my previous claim/strategy of investing solely in Warren Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway, I had no Berkshire shares left. Time for an update, I reckon.
So what happened? Nothing against Berkshire, for sure. I sold almost all of my shares at a profit, and I still have full faith in the company. But sometimes opportunities come along that are too good to pass up, two of which I'm currently invested in.
Feminism - the advocacy of women's rights on the ground of the equality of the sexes.
Sexism - prejudice, stereotyping, or discrimination, typically against women, on the basis of sex
Anti-Feminism - Antifeminism is opposition to feminism in some or all of its forms.
#yesallwomen and #yesallpeople have been trending recently on twitter, for anyone here who as an account on well basically anything. And this has sparked up some interesting questions about feminism and more interestingly, anti-feminism. Just in case any misunderstandings occur, I'd just firstly like to stress that antifeminism is opposition to feminism in all OR SOME of its forms. So, as oxymoronic as it sounds, I am an antifeminist feminist.
Let me explain. I'm all for equal rights for women, I'm all for women getting paid the same for a job they do to the same standard as men, I'm all for women not having to worry about getting raped every time they enter a club, I'm all for women receiving equal sporting opportunities yada-yada you know the rest.

This is a long-overdue, and skillful, translation of one of Deleuzes most important and original works...It occupies an important place in Deleuzes oeuvre as the first text, following a series of historical commentaries, in which he philosophizes on his own behalf. It occupies an equally important place in the evolution of French philosophy in the 20th century, as it articulates a profound critique of the philosophy of representation while constructing a metaphysics of difference freed from subordination to a logic of identity. While charting the development through the history of philosophy of the concepts of ' pure difference and ' complex repetition, Deleuze proposes a new image of thought, which readers familiar with his later works will recognize. A difficult and challenging text that has done as much as any to initiate the philosophy of difference that characterizes much recent French thought, this book is one of the classics of recent European philosophy. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) was Professor of Philosophy at the University of Paris VIII. He is one of the key figures in poststructuralism, and one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century.
This is (arguably) the most important work written by Deleuze for a reason that seems to me is often obscured or merely forgotten: it is (maybe) the only work that seeks to lay the... Read morePublished on 31 Jan. 2004 by Panayotis ZAMAROS

Recent Tasting Notes
My foray into Chinese greens continues with this unique, long leaf tea from TeaVivre. Their Long Jing dragonwell is already amongst my top 5 green teas and this one looks like a dragonwell with extra large leaves.
What stands out most to me about this tea is the smell of the leaf, both dry and wet. The dry leaf smells faintly of kombu and when the leaves are wet, they smell strikingly similar to dashi (fish broth). Thankfully, very little of the dashi aroma made it into the cup. There is a note of seaweed in there which is oddly contrasted with a fruity note I would describe as melon or pear. Not much vegetal flavor and virtually no astringency at all.
Overall, a very delicate and light-bodied tea. Quite different than the green teas I'm used to. I prefer grassier tea but I wouldn't refuse this if it were offered to me. Definitely worth a sip and I'm glad I got to try it. I brewed this in a 150 ml gaiwan using about 7.5 leaves (roughly 1 gram) and got 2 good steeps out of it.
Flavors: Fish Broth, Melon
Tasting note number 550. I went to an art event this morning without having any tea. So I had this as my first cup. Which also happens to be the first note. There is a scent of honey and fruit. The fruity sweetness comes out in the flavour as well.
Flavors: Honey, Red Fruits
The floral in this is almost non existent. In the early days, when I wasn't fond of floral, I recall that high mountain oolongs were my less flowery gateway into appreciation of stronger florals, but I don't remember them being this lacking in the floral department.
Nevertheless, this is a good oolong. Nutty, creamy, bready. It's like Teavivre's Superfine Taiwan Qing Xiang Dong Ding Oolong Tea without the floral. If I pay attention, I can detect a slight floral aroma and a mild sweet taste that may or may not be attributed to a floral flavor. Perhaps I've become desensitized to the florals and don't notice them as well when they are subtle.
Flavors: Baked Bread, Cream, Nuts, Vegetal
Sweet, roasty, yummy. I like roasted oolongs, but sometimes they get carried away with the roast. It's nice when other flavors sneak through as they do in this tea. It must be a tieguanyin thing. I've only had one other roasted tieguanyin that I can remember and it was sweet too – but more floral sweet where as this one is fruity sweet.
Flavors: Fruity, Roasted, Sweet
Had a gongfu session with a ceramic gaiwan. Since Teavivre recommended only 4g, I split the 7-gram sample packet and had two sessions with two different sets of steeping parameters. The first from is Teavivre's website: 10, 20, 30, 50, (accidentally skipped 70), 90, 120. The second is my own: 30, 60, 90, 180, 300.
I smelled the dry leaf aroma two ways. First, I stuck my nose into the packet, then I heated the gaiwan bowl with boiling water, poured that out, and let the leaf sit in the bowl for thirty seconds. What a wonderful aroma! It's one of those you can't stop smelling. A combination of cocoa powder, gingerbread, and cinnamon. I knew this leaf would smell great if it were amplified by a heated bowl. Great start to the first session. The wet leaf aroma smells differently – sweet potatoes, then, after the leaf aired for a bit, freshly baked muffins.
Against a white porcelain cup, the liquor has a beautiful and clear burnt orange color. The texture is consistently smooth and little thick. Full body. The flavor profile doesn't evolve, but it's filled with individual notes that I taste all at once yet can pick out separately. This goes for both sessions. There is the cocoa and the sweet potato, but also subtler notes of wet wood and clover. Sweet and bitter simultaneously, with a coffee aftertaste. This has a soothing and warming effect on me.
This is forgiving and easy to drink, therefore good for the Western brewing method and beginners to Chinese black tea.
This is a sample from Christina. Thanks Christina for the sample! I really enjoyed this tea this morning brewed gong fu. I am finding my list I printed out for doing gong fu really isn't that good. It's what everyone says. Just go by the feel. Their recommendation for first infusion is about 6-8 sec. That's way too short for this green tea so I left it until it had a little colour.
This tea reminds me of an Anji Bai Cha. The leaves look the same – long and straight. This tea also borders between a Japanese and Chinese tea. It has that sweet snap pea aroma (smells soooo good) you find in Japanese teas. It's also in the taste but this brews up very light. A pale pale yellow. The snap pea taste hits the tongue followed by a light buttery/chestnut taste. These are the things I love about Anji Bai Cha only some of the Anji Bai Cha's I've had have been stronger than this tea. This is a very delicate tea and very tasty!
Flavors: Butter, Chestnut, Peas
I can't stress enough how much I suck at picking apart the various flavours in a straight tea, so I won't even try to go there. But what I do know is that I love this. And it can tolerate my habitual over-steeping, which is always a good quality. I don't really get the taste of cocoa in this, but a feeling of it, if that makes any sense. Like it's a dark, rich, smooth taste that is not exactly cocoa, but somewhat similar to it in feeling. Like a cousin to cocoa. Or something. Behold my eloquence!
Either way, great cup, so far everything from Teavivre has been a delight. Will order again once I run out!
This tea comes in a pretty red package. There is a scent of nuts and seaweed in the dry leaf. When brewed, I get more orchids. The flavour is a bit floral, with some sweet, nutty notes. Overall, I get mostly flowers. Thanks to Teavivre for the sample.
Flavors: Nutty, Orchids, Seaweed
After noticing the flavors listed with this tea's description, I almost thought I was still on the page for the Qing Xiang Dong Ding that I just reviewed. I wouldn't have described this one as nutty or bready. Creamier than other tieguanyins, yes. I suppose the creamy texture can easily lead one to think of a nutty flavor. Perhaps it would stand out more to me if I didn't sample it in such close proximity to the Dong Ding which is super nutty bread supreme, lol.
The floral in this is sweeter, rather than sharp, relative to some others I've had. Not much else to say here. It's a tasty cup of delicate floral with a hint of cream. :)
After a while, all the teas of the same type start to blend together and I forget what an oolong I've had in the past tastes like relative to one I'm having now. Or what the difference is between Dong Ding and Tieguanyin. So, After my first isolated cup of this tea, I decided to brew it with two other oolongs I had in my cupboard (one a tieguanyin and another unknown, but I strongly suspect that it is also tieguanyin).
Unfortunately, I have no other Dong Dings to compare it with at the moment, but the tieguanyins definitely helped to put things in perspective and help me to isolate certain characteristics that I would otherwise be oblivious to.
So, without further ado, my tasting notes:
This one has a very creamy mouthfeel. I notice the floral notes first, especially in the aroma. As the tea cools it develops a nutty or bready flavor. Not something I am used to in a green oolong. However, after reading some other tasting notes, it looks like there is some question as to whether or not this oolong is slightly roasted. I'd still say its a green one, albeit unique.
the creamy breadiness sort of works its way into a soupy vegetal flavor — almost. It's as if it's trying to become a green tea but not quite. The floral brings it back to its senses. :p
Pretty good over all.
Flavors: Baked Bread, Creamy, Floral, Nuts, Vegetal
This is a tasty smoked tea. I get a lot of the notes listed in the description. Smoke, earth, pine, scotch, leather, molasses, ash and tobacco to name a bunch. Or at least there is one note that tastes like any of those things.
I brewed this one time in a 16oz Teavana Glass Perfect Tea Maker/Gravity Steeper with 3 tsp leaf and boiling water for 3 min.
This is one of those teas that tastes better when you combine all of the infusions. I brewed it gongfu style following TeaVivre's instructions (rinse, 30s, 30s, 35s, 45s, 1m, 1.5m). I poured all of the infusions into a pitcher and tasted them as I went along. The individual steeps were unimpressive. Flat and slightly bitter with some unexpected milky notes. Combined though, a honeysuckle sweetness began to emerge. The milkiness was no longer there but some bitterness remained in the after taste. This was a meh sorta green oolong for me. Palatable, but nothing to write home about. Glad to have finished my sample so I can move on to other teas.
Flavors: Astringent, Honeysuckle, Milk
Very unique flavor. There are distinct honey, floral, and fruit notes that I am more accustomed to finding in leafhopper oolong teas, but this tea is not as heavy on my stomach as those oolongs tend to be.
I can't see myself drinking this tea on a regular basis – I tend to go through alternating phases of craving or being completely put off by honey notes – but it may show up in my cupboard from time to time.
Flavors: Floral, Fruity, Honey, Sweet
OOO a new harvest of this one! And I notice Teavivre has a new Ancient Tree in stock. I wish they had these when I ordered so I could have bought samples.
This is part of my new-to-teavivre mass sampling order. I ordered a sample of like, everything. haha. I didn't realize there was a previous version of this already on stepsister. For some reason, I couldn't find it when I searched originally, so I created a new entry :o
I've only ever had a couple silver needle tees that I absolutely love. I tend to prefer White Peony as far as white teas go.
While this isn't my favorite white tea, it has some things going for it. It has the characteristic hay flavor, of course, but it's not so intense to either make me sick or feel like I'm eating my father's horse-food-flavored cereal. Instead, it has a subtle hay note and a creamy mouthfeel. Sometimes I can detect something sweet, but it comes and goes.
Flavors: Cream, Hay, Nuts, Sweet
I've had the golden tips and the full leaf, but not this one, so I picked up a sample in my last order. The leaves are pretty…dark brown/black with a few golden strands mixed in. The color of the liquor is also a beautiful red color, even in first infusion. It tastes sweet, with subtle notes of malt, cherry, and potato. It reminds me a little bit of Whispering Pines' Wildcrafted Dian Hong. Maybe I should do a side by side comparison with the rest of my sample. Super smooth, but light in flavor, overall. I wouldn't mind drinking more of this and I don't think it's terribly pricey either. :)
I've heard dancongs are really hard to gongfu. This is my first one so far and I'm excited and a bit terrified to try this. What if I screw it up? Whatevs, I have 100g of it so it doesn't matter if I use couple grams to practise. Maybe?
Guang Dong Phoenix Dan Cong has nice roasted-smoky aroma to it, there is also hint of cherry and wood. It's not as roasty as Da Hong Pao, which was reeeally roasty to my taste. This Guang Dong might suit my taste based on aroma.
I did really quick 1st steep, like 5 seconds. Taste is not expected, I thought Guang Dong would be something like Da Hong Pao, but this is vegetal and mildly roasty. It has some tannis and really really sweet, a bit cherry like and floral scent. Also it has pleasantly astrigent mouthfeel that I really like. I'm going to push that 'recommend' button right away.
Next steep was something between 10-15s, maybe closer to 15s. I'm getting some sweet potato, and woodsy notes, quite strong, but not overly-strong smokiness too. There is also something berry-ish like blackcurrant. This tea is really insteresting since it seems to have typical flavours both to green and dark oolong with its roasty-smoky and floral-vegetal flavours.
I tried shorter steep again to get that nice cherry note, but now it turned smoky and bitter. What did I do wrong? Maybe next one will be successful… And yes it is. Now there is some dried fruit, blackcurrant, honey and… peach? This is definitely my favourite steep. I'm sure this will give many more steeps, I will write about them later.
I'm going to practice with this, but it seems to be really complex tea with a lot of different flavours. Does dancong better in chao zhou-teapots (or yixings). I've always wanted one to my collections, but I've also heard these are better in porcelain gaiwans
Flavors: Black Currant, Cherry, Earth, Floral, Honey, Mineral, Raspberry, Roasted, Smoke, Tar, Toast
I brewed half of my 5g sample yesterday and the rest of it today, both with 12 oz water for 3 min. For some reason, though, yesterday's cup seemed sweeter and more floral than today's. Perhaps I didn't divide the sample as equally as I thought. Today the tea tastes much stronger of hay. Apparently this tea can be easily tweaked to bring out more or less of these flavors. A gong fu brewing would probably yield the best of everything, but I only take the time for that once in a while.
Flavors: Floral, Hay, Sweet
This is a very floral oolong. Other reviewers have mentioned buttery notes. I think it's there but it's quite subdued to me. Overall this is an excellent oolong and a quality Tie Guan Yin for the price.
I brewed this once in a 16oz Teavana Glass Perfect Tea Maker/Gravity Steeper with 3 tsp leaf and boiling water for two minutes after giving it a 10 second rinse. I think this would be much better brewed Asian style but this morning I am in something of a hurry and don't have the time. There was a slight bitter note to the tea that I think would dissipate by a fourth steep or so.
Flavors: Floral
My "Anniversary oolong-order" from Teavivre came today. I somehow ordered only oolongs! Teavivre actually made me an oolong-addict so now circle is complete. Along with this I got some dancong, anxi TGY and anniversary sampler + some samples. So much new tea to taste…
I've only tasted Dong Ding-like oolongs like Green Jade and I've loved them so this was obvious choice to try. Aroma is delightful, sweet and fruity with hint of pea-like vegetality. Big oolong balls are light to dark green in color and they have a yellowish brown stem.
I used 5g/60ml, a porcelain gaiwan and 90C water for green oolong (maybe a wrong choice, but I like to live dangerously).
1st steep
Tea is mildly yellow and has very little aroma. Taste is sweet, but mild. Maybe it needs hotter water.
2nd steep
Taiwan Dong Ding starts to open up despite wrong temperature choice. Sweet and fruity taste and aroma with little astrigency. Tea color is now greenish yellow.
3rd steep
Going even more green. Same taste as in 2nd steep. Nice creamy-buttery mouthfeel and taste.
4rd steep
This tea is just as I imaginated. It's beautiful, it has nice sweet, fruity and creamy taste with buttery mouthfeel and wonderful aroma. I just likey-likey this kind of oolongs. This was from 2014 so it's bit over an year old. I wonder what would fresh one taste like… More tasting notes coming from this one definitely.
Flavors: Butter, Cream, Fruit Punch, Fruity, Sweet, Vegetal
This tea is very tasty. It has strong notes of chocolate. It has weak notes of malt. This is fine by me as I prefer notes of chocolate. I added sugar to this tea so I'm not sure but I think it's got some sweet notes too. This is another tea from Teavivre that I think is just a good value for the quality level. It's not up there with Whispering Pines but it's damn close and less than half the price. It's really quite tasty, almost but not quite spectacular. I think it's better than their Fengqing Dragon Pearl Tea.
I brewed this once in an 16oz Teavana Glass Perfect Tea Maker/Gravity Steeper with 3 tsp leaf and 190 degree water for 3 min. I almost used boiling water but thought to read the directions on the label which call for 194 degree water.
Flavors: Chocolate

|Little known fact: OP gets +1, no more, no less
There is a glitch in the mgomatrix. The original poster gets a single point for putting up a thread. No more. No less. Once a thread is up, the points in the comments tabulate, both positive and negative.
Back in the beginning of mgotime, points were tabulated as they should have been. And a few of the savvy and witty original posters amassed a wealth in points. TomVH was upvoted and upvoted for his wonderful inside recruiting info. Conversely, when a post was downvoted, and especially when the OP like a moth to the flame couldn't resist commenting in the threads, some posters dropped hundreds and hundreds of points in a single hour. You actually could see the poster's point total recalculate up or down as you voted on their brilliance or their folly.
In the dark ages, after one of the mgoservers went down, there were no points awarded for votes. Anarchy reigned on the board. There was no board self-policing, and moderators burned out left and right. Things have been partially restored. The ability to give or remove points has brought back some measure of board self-moderation. But there are still glitches in the matrix. I don't know where all the trapdoors and easter eggs and idiosyncrasies exist in mgoblog. But they are still there.
TL;DR. My point: your negs of the OP are irrelevant. He is impervious, so long as he doesn't venture into the comments, where he could be soundly downvoted.

|I enjoy this piece
Thanks for doing this, Seth. It is helpful for calibrating when and where and how and for how much to buy tickets. I, like you, have largely bought tickets to the games I could go to, not having season tickets since graduating many years ago. Being in Chicago, with other commitments and limited income, there are only so many games I can attend.
Just a few comments. First I also second 707Oxford: if you are putting info about the upcoming game, this post would be better by Wed. or Thurs.
Second, I started a thread several days ago on a related but different topic.
LINK: META: Way for Mgobloggers to help other Mgobloggers with Tix.
It would be great if there was a mechanism to link mgobloggers to other mgobloggers as regards tickets. I'm sure that tiqiq is good, but that is more of an open market. And that is more about really buying and selling. One way to help mgobloggers would be some kind of blog specific IM capability. Is that beyond the programming skilz of mgoblog staff, or the time, or the server ability?
On a completely unrelated topic, I now have 4 mgoblog windows open (the number needed to page down to my post of 3 days ago). I know it is in the plans to eventually fix this. Is "in the plans" something that means this year? Next year? Maybe in 10 years? Inquiring minds . . .

|Hard but prudent decision
Hard but prudent decision. I suspect that Maryland and food vendors were involved in the decision making as well. With a full refund, the Alumni Assoc. loses money too. Unfortunately, in our litigious society, no matter how much you underscore the risk involved (come at your own risk, don't drive though flooded roads, etc., etc.), there is still significant liability if you do anything other than cancel such an event. The problem is the state of emergency put out there by various agencies.

|Watching the OL
I'm watching the OL. If the light really has gone on for Kalis, we move to 3 excellent linemen. And if Braden and Magnuson bring it up a notch, we've then got a very good line, instead of just good. With a very good line, Rudock has more time, the RB's have more lanes, the receivers can get more free, lots of good things happen.
I actually think the season lines up very well for us. The OL has 2 games to gell more, then MSU. I think they can beat State if things go right. That gives us 4 more games after that to get better yet. And then the final and hardest test, OSU. If we played OSU now, I think we would lose. Playing them at the end of the season? I think Michigan has more time and room to improve and catch up to OSU. And if we run the table, that Jim Harbaugh is coach of the year, and we're in the National Playoff picture. I could not have believed that was a possibility in the preseason, in my wildest dreams.

|Fascinating Questions
Being that I'm a pastor, these questions are really interesting to me. They typically don't come up a lot on the board, and are kind of frowned on. That's mostly good. We don't need or want religious debate here. However, there is an intersection point on the board, when faith issues for coaches or players are made public by the same coaches or players. When there are articles and quotes about faith in the media that are published, they become a legitimate topic of discussion. There are several observations I'll make.
First, I'm not Catholic, and so I can't say a whole lot knowledgably about Catholics. However, it strikes me that Harbaugh is more engaged in his faith than many Catholics. He doesn't talk about it a whole lot, but if you do a search on his mission trips to Peru, you'll find it there. The fact that he takes time for a mission trip is very interesting. Harbaugh appears to be more than a cultural Catholic. I don't know how often he worships, and it is absolutely none of my business. But I'm guessing there's a possibility Harbaugh really respects faith issues more than some Catholics do. Just saying, if he was a Chreaster (go to mass Christmas and Easter, skip the rest of the year), he probably wouldn't be going on a mission trip. One aside: I find it fascinating that Beilein is also a very devout Catholic. Again, there are plenty of articles on this.
The second point was already made, so I won't belabor it. But Gary is from NJ and from a Catholic High School. Point is, mom and Gary would be familiar enough with Catholics.
Third, I know there is a significant subset of the team for whom faith life is important. And I know there are other coaches for whom their faith life is important. I don't know how many, I don't know who, for the most part, and again, it is really none of my business. But here's the thing. If there are a decent number of football players and coaches for whom faith is important, that makes it easier for someone like Gary (and his mom) to feel comfortable. You don't necessarily want to be the only person on the team who believes in God.
Fourth, and maybe most important, Greg Harden and his wife are key to Gary's recruitment. There is both a racial and a faith component. Rashan's mother Jennifer Coney was quoted saying:
Harden and his wife Shelia are trump cards. And maybe even support person Mom Lyons. Jennifer Coney and Rashad Gary are interested in a number of things, among others:
Harden and others really provide for the support system and for faith life. If Michigan didn't have any one of these components, they would lose to Alabama or Auburn. Because they can support all four, I think it is going to be harder for Bama and Auburn. We shall see.

|Rain worse than you think
Just got off the phone with my daughter, in the Navy, and stationed in Norfolk. This is about 200 miles south of College Park. The rain in Norfolk has been falling the last 7 days, and the ground is saturated. Rain is heavy enough that there already is some flooding. They expect 4 - 7 inches more between now and Sat. In College Park, the ground is also saturated, and they expect 3 - 4 more inches of rain by Sat. night. There already has been some flooding. However, no one knows exactly how much, and how heavy, the rain will fall. But flooding is quite possible.
My point? You don't wait until there is flooding or a disaster to call something off or reschedule it. If the rain is heavy for 8 hours more on Sat. (between noon and 8pm), that is going to make travel that much more difficult, with that much more water on the ground. Currently, Joaquin is a Cat 4 hurricane. Who knows what it will end up being, and what weather impact it will have?
Water and flooding cause most of the fatalities in a hurricane, not the wind. What a nightmare it would be if people were actually hurt by flooding. It isn't worth the risk.

|We all think about Hand
Sadly, we all think about Hand. I don't know for sure, and it is water over the dam at this point. But I think for Hand, he liked the coaches, and he liked the academics, and he liked the support system. But the football team wasn't very good. I wouldn't be surprised if Hand would have chosen Michigan, if Harbaugh had been coach. It wouldn't have just been Harbaugh: it would have also been the academics and the support system. But having a good football team is important, after all.
Cut to the chase: I think our chances are great with Gary, much better than with Hand.

|I love Michigan in the Fall
I love Michigan in the Fall. Starting back in the 80's a bunch of us who were recent grads would spend a weekend together in a hunter's house near Handy Creek and 131. A fairly nondescript area, but still beautiful, like much of Michigan. There was a glassed in cupola on top of the barn. It was a perfect place to play euchre or hearts, to have a beer, to see the yellows and reds and golds of all the trees around us waving in the breeze. As we've gotten older, we don't stay there as often . . . only having a pot bellied stove and no beds and seeing mouse turds everywhere isn't quite as appealing.
I love getting to Lake Michigan, especially on one of those Fall warm days, temps in the mid-70's. If you're lucky and half crazy and the water is right, you can go for a swim. I have a friend who runs more than 500 acres of orchards near Fennville. The last 10 years, I've picked maybe a half dozen or more bushels of apples, and several crates of concord grapes, making gallons of my own fresh grape juice. Nothing like cake donuts and crisp apples and washing it down with a sip of beer. Also smoked salmon and cheese and a good local wine.
When the days were nice, some of us would shoot skeet, or hunt for grouse and pheasant. It is hard to believe, but I've got a lot of fond memories of getting together with these guys for more than 25 years now. Nine of us were students at Michigan together, and a couple other guys have occasionally joined us. Early on, we would catch the afternoon game on WJR, but now, they are almost always on TV, if we've got cable or a signal.
EDIT: I remember being able to buy a quart jug of freshly squeezed cider on game days walking to the stadium. I haven't seen that for years, but that was better than anything, and part of a glorious day.

|Had the opportunity to meet Brandon
I had the opportunity to meet Brandon at a Chicago Alumni Association meet and greet a couple summers ago. He seemed awfully smug and pleased with himself and bemused with the hoi polloi. Slick, good looking, reasonable, but dismissive. Not someone I would want to work for.

|Not a single issue
According to Webb, it isn't just the academics, and it isn't just the athletics. There are a lot of other important issues out there with the support system, and comfort with the climate at the school. Read the article, and you'll see some of what's important to mom (and to Gary).

|Maybe difficult, not sure
I pondered what you said before posting. In reading the article, it was largely focused on the business strategy, and not on politics. The question of whether or not this broke the spirit of the law isn't necessarily a political question.
Still, I can see that some bloggers might bring politics in.

|Very impressed by Greg Harden
This is great news. I'm very, very impressed by Greg Harden. He cares for the kids, and is a critical part of the staff. Read the article by Sam Webb. My suspicion is that Greg and his wife Shelia mean more to mom, and even to Gary, then a lot of the other stuff.
It isn't just about the football. It isn't about the swag. To be honest, it isn't just about the academics. It is about having an emotional and counseling and spiritual support system in place. That is where Greg Harden comes in.
Obviously, many other schools are going to have something similar. But this gives me hope for Rashan Gary coming to Michigan. To use a different kind of example, Treadwell was looking for something else, and wasn't a fit. Gary, on the other hand, is looking for a combination of athletics, academics, and support system beyond those two aspects.
Upon reflection, I wonder if some of the guys who didn't come to Michigan (thinking of Hand) bailed out because of the football not being quite there. I think Hand might well have come to Michigan with the current staff in place.
There is something about Michigan's culture that is very healthy, and that bodes well for the future. Obviously, you have to have the right athletic ability, and the drive, and the academic bona fides. But I think that there is a strong character element at Michigan which is a good thing.

|It's all good
Even if there is lots of rain, I always thought this scenario made the most sense. It is easier to have people on the road early, during daylight. And if people can fly out earlier, whether Sat. night or Sunday morning, all the better. Get people out of the area sooner.
Regarding TV, I'm thinking it will probably be televised in some fashion.

|The strong get stronger . . .
The strong get stronger . . . more specifically, the strength of our defense is going to give the coaches much, much more flexibility. By playing strength against strength in practice, they help the offense. By dominating, they stay fresh, and protect the defense from injuries. By dominating, they have more time to develop those not starting yet. By dominating, those not starting have to be very hungry. By rewarding hungry players with PT, it motivates everyone on the team. All is well.-

I hear what you're saying. But I would still obviously take Gary. And Corley. And Davis. And Kemp. That only leaves room for two more. I guess I'd be thrilled to add Nauta at TE, but that would leave room for one. Kelly, Jackson, Bush would all be possibilities. We'll see. I suppose a good problem to have.

|We'll be fine
We'll be fine, but I'll bet they change something. Either move the game to Friday night or to Saturday morning in Maryland, or move it to Ann Arbor. Frankly, I think that Maryland doesn't expect to win. Michigan could fill the stadium, and still give the Terps a bunch of money. And Friday night or Sat. morning in the rain is ok, if they are able to get everyone out of Dodge by Sat. night. It sounds like they really don't want people in the area trying to fly out on Sunday.
I personally would hate to be in DC with this kind of event. I was in Norfolk over Labor Day weekend to visit my daughter. The DC traffic is so bad, I drove the alternate route (through WVa) rather than go anywhere near DC.

|Always a potential problem
That's always a potential problem. There are some people out there who want to game the system and always have their hands out. Personally, I would have been more than happy to pay for the tickets. I offered to pay for the tickets. But the reality is that my fellow blogger was kind, and generous, and it brought him a bit of happiness to see them used. He has a lot more in the way of personal finances than I do, and he was gracious in that.
For him, because we've gotten to know each other, I wasn't just a phone number or a face. He knew I would use them, not re-sell them, and would enjoy them. If you can do that with a fellow mgoblogger, you should usually be good.

Yep, readers are clamoring for more Draftaggedon content. Can't wait to hear more about how Brian, Ace, Seth and friends draft the Big 10.
Seriously, I never have completely grasped the appeal or purpose of more than a cursory post about Draftaggedon. That is probably the thing I read the least about. I'd rather read more about Olympic sports than Draftaggedon.

1. Re: Question about Strings and memory796440 Nov 16, 2007 11:31 AM (in response to 807603)If the strings are literals--that is, they're in quotes in your source code--then they live in the constant pool. They're either never GCed, or they're eligible for GC when the class that defined them is unloaded, not sure which. If you refer to the same String literal again, you'll get that same object from the constant pool.
If the String doesn't come from the constant pool--e.g. read from a file or user input--then it will be eligible for GC when it's no longer reachable, like any other object.

The AC Thunder 8-and-under coach-pitch baseball team has played in two tournaments this spring, finishing second in the Jauger Invitational at Nicholasville and third in a tournament at Frankfort. Team members are, front row, from left: Jalen Newton, Isiah Fitzpatrick, Brice White, Tyler Walton and Wesley Ashby. Back row: Gabe Lewitt, Gabe Elliott, Carson Woolridge, Westin Holloman and Jacob Castle.
Anderson County 8, Washington County 3
Anderson right-hander Steven Watts, a junior, turned in what Anderson coach L.W. Barnes called "by far the best performance of his career" in dominating Washington County last Monday at Springfield.
Watts went six innings, giving up one unearned run. He struck out four and walked four.
The Anderson County freshman softball team swept a double-header from Madison Central last Tuesday, winning 5-1 and 9-1.
In the first game, Anderson pitcher Madison Brummet worked five innings and giving up one earned run. She allowed four hits and struck out three. Anderson hits came from Kaci Currens, Alissa Vest, Brummet, Rebecca Hawkins, Bailey Curry, Tara Phillips and Sydney Jessee.
Former Anderson County assistant football coach and head track coach Travis Gay has accepted the head football coaching position at Adair County High School in Columbia.
"I am extremely excited about the opportunity," said Gay, who accepted the position on April 13.

The bird weighed 25 pounds, had an 11-inch beard and 1 1/8-inch spurs.
Logan Stephens, left, and his brother Dylan, had a big day on April 2, the first day of youth hunt. Both got a good-sized turkey that morning. Logan, 11, took one with an 11-inch beard for his second bird. Dylan, 9, got his first catch, bagging a bird with a 10-inch beard. They got the birds with a 20-gauge shotgun. The family plans to mount the fans, beard and spurs.
Nathaniel Pendley, 6, took this gobbler during spring turkey season. It weighed 23 pounds and had one-inch spurs.
Micheala Pendley, 8, got this jake, her first turkey, during the spring hunting season.
Hunter Pendley, 10, got his second turkey, a jake, during youth hunt season. They are the children of Michael and Cheryl Pendley.
Turkey season opened with a bang this season for several of the Lilly clan.
Reality, wearing Oldham County softball uniforms, hit Anderson County quickly last Thursday.
Just minutes after the Lady Bearcats had ridden Mackenzie Peavler's first home run of the season for a 2-1 lead over 13th-ranked Oldham, the visitors sent eight batters to the plate, scoring three runs in the third inning. That 4-2 Oldham lead eventually turned into an 8-4 victory. A team that finished at 12-15 a year ago has suddenly become one of the state's best, winning its 17th in 18 games.
TAYLORSVILLE – Landon Case was a bit under the weather but he made Spencer County's bats sick.
The junior right-hander went the distance, scattering five hits in a 6-2 win last Tuesday. The victory guaranteed Anderson can do no worse than a two-seed in the 30th District Tournament next month. Case dominated Spencer, getting his fourth win in five decisions.
And he was not 100 percent.
"I started feeling bad yesterday," Case said of what was called a stomach virus.

Thanks so much for taking the time to watch our film. I definitely want to sit down with Blackie face-to-face to ask him these very questions myself. I don't think Mississippi has a statute of limitations on murder, or even on being an accomplice to murder. I'm continuing to research on my own for personal reasons as well as for a book I'm writing. I'll be sure to keep this blog up to date as I learn more.Yvettehttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2964597594514035889.post-22964661521399640272012-05-07T20:02:39.971-07:002012-05-07T20:02:39.971-07:00I saw the movie on iTunes a few days ago.

Glad to hear you've been in touch w/him. Money in the trunk of a car? Seems to be hedging. Hopefully, you'll be able to meet in person-it's more difficult to lie when face to face.

Finally, what's the statue of limitations on cases like this? If you find out that it was indeed the sheriff's idea, what type of legal action can be taken now? I mean, it took years, but they eventually got Medgar's killers.Mia G.http://firstname.lastname@example.com
