Diabetes is a disease of increased blood glucose levels. Glucose is a type of sugar that comes from the intake of food. Insulin is a type of hormone that removes the glucose from the blood and moves it into the cells to provide them with energy. There are two different types of diabetes: type 1 and type 2. Type 1 diabetes is when the body does not make any insulin. Therefore, glucose stays inside the blood and does not move into the cells. Type 2 diabetes, which is commonly associated with obesity, is when the body is either resistant to the effects of insulin or when the body does not produce enough insulin. Increased levels of glucose in the body causes severe damage to the ...Read more

Urologic Cancer Experts Like Robotic Prostate Surgeon, David Samadi, MD, Urge Primary Care Physicians to Start the Prostate Cancer Discussion Early
NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - May 15, 2014) - A recent European prostate cancer screening survey yielded surprising results to those leading the prostate cancer battle. Approximately 1,000 non-urologic specialists were asked about their prostate cancer screening practices and use of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test for patients aged 50 or older. In response to an in-person questionnaire, 90 percent of participants were not performing regular PSA tests or digital rectal exams on their elderly male patients.
Moreover, the study revealed that among those who were evaluating PSA, none was providing an informed decision-making consult about prostate cancer screening, nor did they themselves have any understanding of the strategy.
In April of 2013, the American Urologic Association (AUA) introduced the concept of informed or shared decision-making about the PSA test for men ages 55 to 69. Their goal was to curtail what they believed to be excessive screening and prostate cancer treatment. Though, experts like David B. Samadi, MD, Chairman of Urology and Chief of Robotic Surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital, fear the changes could impede early detection and treatment for men who need them most.
"It's very disheartening to learn that general care physicians and healthcare specialists are omitting the prostate cancer talk," said Dr. Samadi. "If patients aren't aware of their risk factors and the benefits of early detection, we simply perpetuate the dangers of late-stage prostate cancer diagnosis."
Last year, the AUA offered very specific and conservative guidelines for PSA testing of men within various age brackets. Among them was the recommendation that men aged 55 to 69 receive education about the pros and cons of PSA screening and actively participate in the decision of whether or not to be tested.
"The idea of empowering patients to take a more active role in their healthcare is important," said Dr. Samadi. "While this data is from Europe, it's possible that the AUA's recommendation to omit routine PSA testing may have an adverse effect on prostate cancer vigilance in the U.S. Early detection for men depends on awareness at all healthcare checkpoints."
The survey details were published in the March-April 2014 Urology Journal, http://www.urologyjournal.org/index.php/uj/article/view/1574/876

How to Write a Sensory Poem on Fall
A sensory poem about fall describes all that the season encompasses through the five senses of hearing, sight, sound, smell and taste. Often created as an elementary class assignment, the poems can also be found as published works. Sensory poems create a descriptive mind picture of an object or event, because the words echo the reader's own sensory experiences of that object or event. Because they are not tied to a specific type of poetic rhyme or form, beginning poets may find sensory poems extremely easy and effective writing.
Choose a type or style of poetry based upon your assignment requirements or reason for writing. Traditional types of poetry include sonnets, ballads, odes, epitaphs, haiku, couplets, quatrains, free verse and an extensive list of others. Decide what type of rhyme, meter and verse, if any, your poem will use.
Organize the flow of your poem. You might decide to describe fall through each of the five senses separately, in different lines or verses. As an alternative, different verses might describe a fall object, event, word or theme through all five of the senses.
Brainstorm a list of fall words, themes, events and objects. Use this list when you begin to form sensory word and phrase ideas for your fall poem. If you have trouble coming up with ideas, look at pictures of fall events and occasions to help you create your brainstorm list.
Create a verse or list of words to include in your poem regarding the tastes of fall. Think of words to describe the taste of fall apples, warm pumpkin pies, Halloween candy, spiced cider or oatmeal on a cold morning. If you are creating a rhyming poem, begin to think of words that might rhyme with these words and fit with your poem.
Create a verse or word list for words describing the smells of fall and words that you might rhyme with them, if you are creating a rhyming poem. Describe the smell of fireplaces burning, spiced cider simmering, hot chocolate sitting warm in a cup or fresh cookies baking. Use a thesaurus to find unusual substitutions for common words, such as "delicious."
Think of things you hear in fall and create a verse or word list for these. Find unique words to describe the way these things sound. For example, write about the crack, hiss and pop of dried wood as the flames eat away at the log in the fireplace. You might also describe the crunching of dried leaves and the sound of wind in the trees as you walk outside on a fall day.
Describe the feel of fall events and objects. Make a list describing the feeling of cool morning air, warm fuzzy jackets and soft fleece blankets. Write a verse or line to describe the feeling of hot, steamy cocoa against cold hands after being outside.
Find words to describe the sights of fall in a verse or line. Write about the bold red, orange, yellow and brown colors of fall leaves against a bright, blue fall sky. Alternatively, write about the smiles and costumes of children at your door for Halloween trick or treating.
Using your prewriting work of lists, words, rhymes and phrases, create your sensory poem about fall. Remember that a poem need not rhyme, but usually has some sort of organization or rhythm. Use the word lists, phrases or verses you have created to paint a poetry word picture of all that you see, hear, touch, taste and smell in fall.

Have you ever made a poor hiring choice? Most leaders have and it can prove to be a great organizational setback. By the time you realize your new hire is not working out, retrain them, get them coaching, work through the process of firing them, and then hire a replacement, it's not uncommon to lose at least two years of progress. The old saying goes, "hire slow and fire quick." And leadership consultant, Dr. Sam Chand, asserts that the best time to fire someone is the first time you think of it.
Featured Download: Get your FREE copy of my resource, Organizational Culture Assessment & Action Guide. Click Here to Download.
Regardless of how you view hiring and firing, the truth is we all want to make the best hiring decisions. So how do you do that? The following eight keys are a great place to begin:
1. Know Why You're Hiring and What You Need – Our tendency is to hire staff to fill roles that we've always had. But when hiring, it is always smart to ask, "Do we still need someone in this role?" "Does the role need to change?" "Can a volunteer or part-time employee fill the role?" "Is there a different role that would add greater value to the organization?" And whatever you do, don't hire people to fill positions, hire them to fulfill responsibilities. Get clear about what you're trying to accomplish and then staff around those responsibilities and your growth objectives.
2. Develop a Multi-Stage Hiring Process – A single-stage hiring process is very prone to mistakes. I would encourage you to consider a multi-stage process with at least four interviews. The four interviews should include:
- The Character & Competence Interview – This is the first interview and focuses on a candidate's character, integrity, work ethic, spiritual history, relationship with God, beliefs, abilities, gifts, passions, skills, and experience. The interview gives you an immediate gauge on whether the individual has the ability to do the job and the character and spirituality to start and finish well.
- The Chemistry Interview – This interview focuses on whether or not the individual "fits" the chemistry of the staff as well as the candidates emotional and relational health. Think this is unnecessary? I once had a pastor tell me he fired someone because they were just plain weird–nobody on the staff liked them. Chemistry is essential to a healthy staff environment. The chemistry interview should include a focus on core values, ministry philosophy, emotional stability, relational health, emotional intelligence, people skills, and family health.
- The Compensation Interview – The compensation interview focuses on the financial health of the candidate as well as the financial package of the role being filled. While general financial issues should be addressed in the first interview to ensure you can afford the hire, the compensation interview provides a much more detailed analysis.
- The Final Interview – The final interview should, if not already conducted, include an on-site visit. If the role is a key position in the organization, it's best to have more than one on-site visit. This interview allows key leaders, staff, and board members to meet and interact with the candidate face-to-face.
Not every candidate will make it through all four interviews. Frequently it only takes the first interview to realize there is no need to move forward.
3. Involve Different Leaders in the Interview Process – This is one of the biggest mistakes leaders make. Too often the interview process is limited to the human resource director, the leader of the nonprofit, or the senior pastor of the church. The problem with limiting the interview process to one individual is that it often leads to emotional or "mercy" hires. Each of the four interviews should be conducted by different people. This will help you consider the candidate objectively and will help you catch any red flags. It also saves the senior leader an enormous amount of time because they only interview candidates that are considered the very best.
4. Reserve the Senior Leader's Interview for the End – If you are the key leader in the organization, your interview should be the last. This will keep you from influencing others involved in the interview process and, again, will keep you from making a hire because you "like" the person. Emotional hires or mercy hires rarely work out. I can still remember one candidate that went through all four interviews at Christ Church before we pulled the plug. So what was the problem? While we all really liked this candidate, there were some red flags during the process. One of our staff nailed it when he said, "We're all trying too hard to find a reason to hire this candidate." We liked him so much that we were tempted to overlook the red flags. That settled it and we moved on. Emotional hires are often made when the likability of an individual gets in the way of their character or competence. Incorporating multiple interviews and saving the senior leader's interview for the end will help guard against this.
5. Make Reference Checks – This is a no-brainer but is still necessary to point out. Make multiple reference checks and if at all possible contact people not listed as references on their resume. Always ask, "Would you hire this individual if you were in my shoes? Why or why not? If not, who would you hire?" And if they have worked for the reference, ask, "Would you hire them all over again if the role was open on your staff?" Push for honest answers.
6. Utilize Assessment Tools – Quality assessments usually don't lie. Consider using a strengths assessment, personality assessment, spiritual gifts assessment, emotional intelligence assessment, and leadership style assessment. The results of the assessments will help you determine if the individual is a fit for the job and if their values connect well with the organization's values.
7. Include Appropriate Orientations – When a new hire is made, be sure appropriate orientations are made to cover issues such as policy and procedures, equipment usage, goals, personal growth planning, forms, financial issues, insurance, insider language, etc.
8. Put Your Hiring Process in Writing – Having the process in writing will help you systematically follow it. You might even turn your process into a checklist.
These are just a few suggestions to get you pointed in the right direction. To learn more about hiring people who fit your culture, check out my book, Creating Your Church's Culture, available on Amazon or Kindle.

The M25 was closed last night after a car crash which saw one woman taken to hospital.
The accident happened just after midnight between junctions three and two.
Fire fighters from the Dartford station were returning from another accident when they came across the crashed Mercedes which was in the central reservation.
A spokesperson from the station said they "did our best with the one fire engine that was there" and called for assistance.
The woman was slid out of the car by the paramedics and taken to Kings Hospital in London. Her injuries are believed to be minor.
A rescue engine arrived from the station and a rolling road block was formed behind the crash. The M25 was then closed at Swanley.
A police spokesperson said: "We were called at 12.12am to the M25 between junction 3-2 anti-clockwise to a single vehicle road traffic collision involving a Mercedes that was in the central reservation.
"A female was trapped in the car and was freed by crews from KFRS. She was taken to Kings Hospital in London."
The motorway was reopened by 1.50am.

Moisture in the home At least 20% of U.S. buildings have signs of dampness Moisture is more likely with Overcrowding Insufficient heating, ventilation, and insulation A Cleveland Perspective Older housing stock High poverty levels For more information, see: Guidelines for Indoor Air Quality: Dampness and Mould, World Health Organization, 2009; Damp Indoor Spaces and Health, Institute of Medicine, 2004 www.ehw.org Extent of the issue
Moisture in the home Consequences of excess moisture Leads to microbial growth (mold) Initiates chemical or biological degradation of materials Encourages presence of pests Presence of dampness is considered to be a risk factor for asthma and respiratory disease For more information, see: Guidelines for Indoor Air Quality: Dampness and Mould, World Health Organization, 2009; Damp Indoor Spaces and Health, Institute of Medicine, 2004 Connection with health
Fungi (i.e., mold) Ubiquitous eukaryotic organisms Hundreds of different species Growth limited by temperature, nutrients, moisture Health effects include Infections, allergies, toxicities Health effects may arise from Viable (live), or nonviable (dead) or fragments of organisms For more information, see: Guidelines for Indoor Air Quality: Dampness and Mould, World Health Organization, 2009; Damp Indoor Spaces and Health, Institute of Medicine, 2004
Urban Mold & Moisture Program Components of the program Visual inspections of homes Homes sampled for mold Moisture reduction interventions Monitoring respiratory health Will reduction of moisture in homes improve homes and health? Leaks Cooking, Bathing, Watering Plants, Breathing, Washing Surface water Groundwater Air From Soil
Urban Mold & Moisture Program Repair the "Cleveland drop" Flash the soil to the house Treat the porch like a roof Eliminate sub-slab duct and heating systems Disconnect and redirect downspouts Reduce moisture in crawlspaces Correct negative grade at foundation Remove debris in basements Vent clothes dryer to exterior Occupant education Moisture intervention goals
Urban Mold & Moisture Program Randomized controlled trial Eligibility criteria Children hospitalized for asthma within the past year Mold visible in the home All children (n=62) had medical care optimized Roughly half (n=29) of the homes were remediated Children assessed at 6 and12 months Homes reassessed at 12 months For more information, see: Kercsmar et al. 2006. Environmental Health Perspectives 114(8):1574-1580. A subset of the program where families had asthmatic children
Urban Mold & Moisture Program Significant decrease in symptom days ( p = 0.004 ) after repairs Lower rate of ER visits and hospitalizations Remediation group: 1 of 29 Control group: 11 of 33, p = 0. 003). Outcomes from asthma study For more information, see: Kercsmar et al. 2006. Environmental Health Perspectives 114(8):1574-1580.
Urban Mold and Moisture Project II Sustainability/maintenance of housing improvements Do these interventions need to be modified? Home visual inspections to identify mold Sampling for mold and moisture Maintenance of respiratory symptom improvements Are home moisture interventions effective 5 to 8 years later?
UMMP II 104 homes renovated in 2000-5 44 (42%) visited in 2008-9 28 (63.6%) with original families 16 (36.4%) with new families Data collected at the visits Visual inspection for mold Dust sampling for mold Occupant questionnaire Visual assessment of interventions
Housing interventions Repair of the "Cleveland drop" Did not require maintenance All were still in place and functional Eliminate sub-slab duct work Concrete in holes in duct work, new furnace All were still in place and functional Interventions still in working order For more information, see: "Moisture Control in Older Housing: Observations of a Five Year Follow Up", Environmental Health Watch, www.ehw.org
Housing interventions Flash the soil to the house Poor implementation can exacerbate problem Flat trenches, rubber ending near foundation Treat the porch like a roof Temperature gradients may still cause moisture Reduce moisture in crawl spaces Use of plastic may trap water from other sources Including 'rat slabs' could help prevent pests Correct negative grade at foundation Not every grade was completely corrected Maintenance also needed to maintain these Functional, but some improvements needed For more information, see: "Moisture Control in Older Housing: Observations of a Five Year Follow Up", Environmental Health Watch, www.ehw.org
Housing interventions Disconnection, redirection of downspouts Most common problem Not maintained, occasionally missing Some implementations exacerbate problem Location can be a problem for other activities Remove debris from basement Staff occasionally not allowed into basement Several basements still had debris Vent clothing dryer to outside Common for the vent to become disconnected In some cases this was intentional Post-intervention events contributed to failure For more information, see: "Moisture Control in Older Housing: Observations of a Five Year Follow Up", Environmental Health Watch, www.ehw.org
Visual inspections for mold Room5-8 years vs. baseline5-8 years vs. clearance Basement, any surfaceSignificant decrease Basement, celluloseSignificant decrease KitchenSignificant decreaseDecrease BathroomSignificant decreaseDecrease
Symptom questionnaires Given to families with a new infant, mold in the home Baseline, 1 year and 5-8 years following remediation Limited to those who had not moved 5-8 years later (n=56) General symptoms Several symptoms decreased at 1 year, but not 5-8 years later Respiratory symptoms Most significantly improved at 1 year, but no significant improvement from baseline at 5-8 years 'A lot of mucus of phlegm', 'shortness of breath or rapid breathing' showed significant improvement at 5-8 years (v. baseline)
Asthma exacerbations Repeated interviews among 26 families with interventions 16 had moved, 10 had not moved Exacerbation = ER visit or hospitalization Among those who had moved 6 out of 16 children (37.5%) had a total of 10 exacerbations Among those who had not moved 2 out of 10 children (20.5%) had a total of 3 exacerbations
Analysis of mold in dust QPCR analysis of 33 mold species in homes of asthmatic children BedroomTV/Living room Clearance vs. baselineSignificant decrease (5 spp) 5-8 years vs. clearanceSignificant decrease (3 spp) Significant increase (20 spp) 5-8 years vs. baselineSignificant decrease (1 spp) Significant increase (20 spp)
Conclusions, part 1 Sustainability of housing interventions Overall these houses remain in better condition Consider interventions not requiring maintenance even if more cost Education regarding the purpose, maintenance of interventions Occurrence of self-reported respiratory symptoms In most cases, a decline at 1 year was not maintained There are long term benefits to moisture interventions; however, maintenance continues to be an issue
Conclusions, part 2 Asthma exacerbations among those in renovated homes Fewer exacerbations among those still in renovated homes compared to those who moved Presence of mold in homes of asthmatics A few species had lower concentrations Many species increased in concentrations compared to baseline or just post clearance

A First Look at Bishop Cider Co., Oak Cliff's Long-Awaited Cider House
It DOES exist.
Steven Harrell
Over a year ago, Joel Malone and his wife Laura celebrated the full funding of their Kickstarter campaign.
All good, right? Wrong. Thanks to loads of red tape, centering on the fact that cider is technically considered to be wine (because it's made from fruit, not grains), Joel and Laura weren't able to obtain the necessary permits to open until two weekends ago. Even then, due to delays in a shipping schedule, brewmaster Laura wasn't actually able to start their first three batches of Dallas-made hard cider until last week. She's been brewing cider for three years and decided to start with three original recipes -- Cideways (a hopped cider with lemongrass), Suicider (a spicy, autumnal cider) and Cat Scratch Fever (cider flavored with jalapeno and catnip). Catnip? Catnip.
Go forth, yeast. Eat sugar. Poop alcohol. Make sweet booze. |
But now everything seems to be moving along. It's safe to say that their own brews, gloriously displayed behind the bar in shining tanks, are going to be the most heavily featured. While we wait for yeast to do it's magical thing, the Malone's have put together a rotating menu of nearly 50 ciders from around the world to start Dallas' cider-ducation. For cider-novices who want to try a few different things but don't want to think very hard, Joel and Laura have put together four sets of pre-selected "flights" -- three or four ciders for one price. Beware though, that instead of a few ounce sample, you'll get a whole can/bottle of each. For less than $20, I had a cherry cider from Original Sin (12 oz bottle), a William's Sir Perry (16.9 oz can) and a surprisingly not-terrible mint-flavored Woodchuck (22 oz bottle).
The cider-devotees of Dallas on opening night -- May 30, 2014. |
Joel told me that they're working to expand their menu with harder-to-get cider releases, as well as consulting with a mixologist to come up with cider cocktails. They're already offering cider-mosas to the Bishop Arts brunch crowd, but are hoping to make a workable cider-ita and a cider-centric take on a Moscow Mule. The space itself is pretty tight; four or five tables line the wall opposite the bar, which spans the length of the room.
Bishop Cider Co.'s official grand opening party is scheduled for July 19, just after their original ciders will be ready to drink. Until then, they'll be open Wednesdays and Thursdays 5 p.m. - midnight, Fridays 4 p.m. - midnight, Saturdays from 10 a.m. - midnight, and Sundays noon - 6 p.m. You'll find them in a storefront just south of Lockhart Smokehouse on Bishop Ave.

RJS U-Turn
92 comments:
Every day that passes, I get more proud to be a supporter of UM. With recruits of high integrity and a coaching staff the caliber of Hoke & Co., there's no doubt that Michigan is returning to the ranks of the nation's elite. To RJS and the rest of our recruits, I for one am proud to say you're one of ours. This is what being a Michigan Man is all about. Bravo.
ReplyDeleteApparently he got a word from his high school coach as well. If he were to visit those programs in the south it would be bad news. Thats all they have down there and they spend all of there money on it. The programs down there are not full of integrity and would offer things and show things that a 17 year old kid probably couldnt ignore or turn down.
ReplyDeleteTalking likely decision timelines, Wormley looks like the next prospect to choose, no? Most of our prospects have top 5's now, but would Wormley's summer decision come next, or would a DT decision or a Dunn decommitment possibly happen sooner? What should we be looking to happen next?
Diamond sounds like he's pushing his date further back, and A. Washington's coach said they don't really have one, and have no visits scheduled. OK just took a 3 star qb (4 on scholie now) so Kiel is down to 3 of his choices remaining, but all is still quiet for him so he may wait to see what the classes he might join shape up to be instead of being one of the earlier commits. Have Bisnowaty or Payton or Garmon put any info out there? ect.Good news about RJS, but this visit situation still makes me uneasy. Remember how much TR liked Oregon? I obviously don't know him personally but he seems more interested in the glamour and nike gear he sees at other schools than the tradition of excellence (academic and athletic) we have here at Michigan. Here's hoping I'm wrong. I would hate for him to take this trips and get mixed up in a shady recruiting situation.
ReplyDeleteOff Topic (as usual for me) but I've been watching a lot of game film lately. What do you all think of Michael Shaw? I don't feel any of our back's got justice last year thanks to Drob's running. But I feel Shaw was impressive. A bit injury prone, but impressive none the less. I feel if he were to add another 15 lbs (I'm sure he's been getting bigger since last season) he'd be 6'1" 205 or so. He's got 4.4 speed, and he has the ability (at least what I've seen) to break tackles like nobody's business. I think if he put on some good solid muscle, (and stayed healthy) he could be a very good back.
ReplyDeleteInteresting Q&A session with A.W.:
He answers some questions regarding Wormley's pending commitment, RB/FB status (including Dunn), Washington and Stanford leaning toward the SEC, and Michigan's possible DT pickups, Pipkins and Shittu (more so than O'Brien).
I know many of you hate this guy, but he's giving us what we want when it comes to recruiting info.Wormley, O'Brien/Pipkins/Washington, Burbridge/Stanford, Dunn, Banner/Garnett/Diamond boy what an option. What would you people pick if you got to choose 6 of the above. And who do you think the attrition will come from (state names if you like) because I don't see more than three people leaving. I say Jordan Paskorz, Terrence Talbott and Kenny Wilkins
ReplyDeleteWormley, O'Brien/Pipkins/Washington, Burbridge/Stanford, Dunn, Banner/Garnett/Diamond boy what an option. What would you people pick if you got to choose 6 of the above. And who do you think the attrition will come from (state names if you like) because I don't see more than three people leaving. I say Jordan Paskorz, Terrence Talbott and Kenny Wilkins
ReplyDeleteMonty mandras (I doubt I spelled that right) was just offered by Michigan. He is another Cincinnati kid and a 4 star on scout, Espn, and 247. And his is 6-2, I would still much rather have Stanford, Peyton, or Burbridge I still like this kid and he could be a good back up plan/ catalyst for stanford or Peyton to speed up the process.
ReplyDeleteI was also looking at the top prospects in the official Michigan football preview book. (if anyone has any questions let me know) Michigan for 2011 and 2012. In 2011 we got the #3,4,5,9,11, in the state (something like that) And Michigan State got #1,7,18,24 if I remember correctly. We're killing everybody else in the midwest tho I'll bring up the exact stats later. It also said Vincent Smith will probably do some kick returns for us this year, and Junior Hemingway will be a Punt Returner, I am very excited about. Hemingway is great after the catch and in space and i think will make an excellent return man. Also does this mean we won't see Jeremy Gallon or Drew Dileo in return roles? Where will they be I know Dileo was used on kickoff last year, I would like to see Dileo and Gallon used on screen passes or slants I just dont see how you can waste so much talent with all the receivers we have but I am confident that the coaching staff, already being said that they will adapt the offense to the talent, will find a way to get these guys in. Terrence Robinson was a four-star recruit and has great speed and the size of Desmond Howard I think he could be a great home run threat. Thoughts after you answer my first question?
ReplyDeleteI think Hemingway will do a good job on punt returns. I've also heard that Martavias odoms will get his fair share of return time. Since we are gonna be running more of a west coast offense, Drew dileo and gallon will be key elements in the new offensive scheme. Terence got some playing time in the Uconn game last year, and I'm excited to see how he adapts. I wouldn't say "killing"everybody in the midwest.Notre Dame has a good class going as of now.
Sorry if I'm taking to long, I'm on mobile so it takes me awhile to respond.thats a great six. The Dline would be rediculus with Washington, Pipkins, and Shittu. I don't like Stanford's chances of coming to michigan. The state of Michigan and midwest has some WR prospects I haven't heard of and I wonder if/why they have or haven't been offered. I think Burbridge is a good pick-up as well, him and Stanford would be much needed in 2013 when they are redshirt freshmen and our projected upperclassmen are Jeremy Jackson and Jerald Robinson Dileo and Gallon are also there and Miller but he is a tight end now could switch back i guess if they need him tho, but I think we will need two more impact receivers I never thought of taking two until now but I think it is necessary. Garnett is looking good for us right now and so is Banner and I think it'll either be them two or jordan diamond alone probably whoever commits first ya know.
My six would be
Stanford/Washington (i know those two will probably come together but I think there are two needs and we can only fill one unless we get 26 which I don't think we should because I don't see that much attrition)
and O'Brien
and believe it or not we are actually in good shape for DTs it's the DE that we are thin at. In 2013 we will only have Jibreel Black left at that position from the current roster, the rest will be Brennan Beyer {if he stays at that position} then Keith Heitzman. The rest will be Redshirt freshmen from 2012's class {Ojemudia (if he stays at that position), Stroble (if he stays at that position) godin (same thing), Pharaoh Brown (same thing)What do you think about the Linebacker position this year? I think Demens can hold down the fort as a Mlb.Cam gordon has potential but needs some work. I think Jake Ryan and J.B Fitz will fight for the other LB spot.I wouldn't be surprised if Hoke offers some elite linebackers in the 2013 due to lack of depth and experience.
ReplyDeleteI think it will be a carousel this year. We actually have a lot of potential players to see good playing time. I like Marell Evans at middle linebacker with Kenny Demens getting about 40% of the time there. Cam I think will play most of the time at the WLB but have Mike Jones and Brandon Herron spell him when the offense throws out bigger packages. Yea, I think it'll be Jake Ryan and J.B. for the other spot. I like Ryan tho the players are raving about him. Why do you feel a need for elite linebackers in 2013 tho? We got 4 in 2011 and have 4 in 2012 as well. I'd say one *elite* linebacker for 2013, try and get a top 5 or none elite and just get a couple in-staters that aren't as highly ranked but can serve as good back-ups
ReplyDeleteI don't have a blog, this is my aim profile. If I had to blog it'd probably be michigan football, basketball (any type) or fashion (mainly hip-hop)
@Casimir Miller has 4.5 speed and is probably 6'3 1/2"
Miller is projected as the #3/4 TE. Kevin Koger is the #1, Moore is 2 and Miller is probably tied for 3 with Steve Watson but expect him to get some good playing time this year although it will mostly be mop up duty. I think Miller will come in in 4-5 wide sets when you want a speed/strength threatRe:
If someone knows about his character, I'd like to read your post.
I mean no judgment, or criticism of him, or anyone else, but I have a concern:
Two recent Cass Tech CB's have been in the news. One is Boo Boo, the other was a poor kid who I think played, or was going to play for Wayne State, before he was shot and killed.
For all I know, the poor kid who got killed was an innocent crime victim, and TR is an Eagle Scout. If that's the case, I'd like to hear about it.....1. Garnett
2. Banner
3. Payton
4. Pipkins
5. Shittu
6. Washington/Wormley/ Obrien
I have been trying to sell everybody on the Banner Garnett package. Both want to play together and that is something that we need to consider much more than we all have. Give up on Diamond already!!! I feel the same way for Dunn! We got 2 very good backs last class with Justice Hayes and Rawls. We need to use the final spots to build the lines. For the final spot I think Obrien might be the better option between the 3 for the 6th spot.Since Diamond likely won't read this page I'll say it here. We need an incoming LT. We have Taylor Lewan. Lewan>Magnuson, Magnuson>Diamond. Magnuson can be a monster RT just like Kalis will be a monster Guard instead of good tackle. Magnuson might grow into the LT role in a few years, but his footwork/agility need to improve. He can passblock against powerful ends, but speed ends can burn him. Diamond just stands up and catches the defender. He got a great rating as a sophmore/Junior like Wormley did, but head to head Wormley has more upside that Diamond. Kalis would make a better LT than Diamond. Diamond could be a solid RT someday and Magnuson could be an LT someday, but Banner>or=Lewan. Plus Diamond might push his commitment all the way back until December. He's been a Michigan "lean" for months now, he seems wishy-washy while other guys have great technique, better builds, and mean streaks. I wouldn't mind if he did commit, but Banner has NFL potential already. His yet-to-be-refined technique and body type is so valuable that 5 LTs were taken in the first round this year and Nate Solder was even a converted tight end because hieght+agility is more important than size.
ReplyDeleteBanner is 6'9" and he could still grow an inch or two, he will have a tough time against some speedy players off the edge. I still would take him, but if I had to choose a player out of Garnett banner and Diamond, I would choose Garnett. Manguson would be one of our tackles, Garnett and Kalis would be guards, and either someone from the 2011 class, Braden, or a 2013 kid.
ReplyDeleteLeft or Right doesn't really matter. We call them Left tackles because most every QB is right handed so the Left Tackle protects the QBs blindside and must be the best tackle of the two. Weakside or Blindside Tackle is really what we should call it because the Left Tackle would just move to the Right in Morris case.
ReplyDeleteMagnuson could be that guy, he's got the potential, but natural isn't what I'd use to describe him. I know he's played LT but the top 2 OGs in this years class both played RT exclusively in High School too. Magnuson has pretty bad footwork, his pass blocking is great against bigger DE's but he basically hops from wide locked stance to wide locked stance in pass protect. His run blocking is stellar but his footwork there is a little off too, but a lot easier to fix. He'll move to RT in both of our estimations, but I have him moving to RT right away while you have him ending up there after 2013. Banner is the better passblocker if you watch his film. His basketball game helps him quickly move his feet and maintain position, his kickslide is alot better, and his longer arms help him lock out and contain. If we don't take Banner then Magnuson would be the guy for the weakside job, but he's pretty duck footed right now and relies more on his upper body strength than athleticism in blocking. His run blocking is excellent and ferocious and he and Kalis would be Masters of the Universe in the power run from day 1. (Likely they play day 1 because next year we'll only have 2 scholarship tackles,) and if he doesn't redshirt then he likely won't start at LT right away because even Long and Lewan redshirted before playing LT in college.
Touch The Banner had a pretty good profile on Magnuson, worth checking out with some film. I'm VERY excited about Magnuson, though, and he hasn't even realized his potential yet.As for Monty Madaris, I haven't watched any game film yet or read much about him, but the first thing I saw was his GPA. 2.8? Good luck getting into Michigan with a 2.8. I'm not tooting my own horn, but I was nervous about them accepting me and I had a 3.8, then again they didn't want me to play football haha.
ReplyDeleteThe more combine video you watch (especially the ones in pads) the more you get convinced we couldn't do much better than OjemudiaWDE, OBrienDT, PipkinsNT, and GodinSDE. Stars will say one thing, but watching these guys all go head to head they dominate against all the top OLinemen, even the dream candidate ones for our class. Army combine, Nike combine, and The Happening makes it look like we might never need to blitz again if those 4 are our front 4. I (reluctantly) hope Ace Crap-Factory Williams is again lucky enough to be right about Pipkins.
ReplyDelete"The goal of the program, the expectation of this program, is to WIN the BIG..TEN...CHAMPIONSHIP! If we fail, and we don't do that, then we need to get it right. We need to reload. We need to work harder. We need to compete harder. We need to get after it with a sense of urgency."-Brady Hoke being introduced to his team
Realistically we have an excellent chance of playing in the first ever B1G Championship Game. We're taking huge strides forward and return the most starters, while everybody else loses a TON of guys.Notre Dame @home will be tough because they have momentum in their program, while ours is just getting going. Game 2 will be tough for us, but they've been slow out of the gate for Kelly every year now.
SDSU's QB throws the ball one way, bullet strikes at crossing routes, but they lose their whole coaching staff so unless they pass our lights out we'll win.
Sparty on the road will be huge, but they lose everyone. They lose all of their LB's and pretty much every tackle they had last year, plus their LT,RT, and C left and they don't have talent depth like other schools do so the offense takes a big step back.
Iowa lost their entire defense and their qb.
Illinois keeps Scheelhaase but loses Leshoure and were only a 7-6 team last year. They lost to Fresno St. and Minnesota at the end of the season.
Nebraska returns nearly the fewest starters in the NCAA, doesn't know who their qb will be, has a new OC and visits us at the end of a tough B1G schedule.
TSIO loses their playcalling head coach, 95% of their offensive production in Pryor, and wears the target on their back all year. They had a safe offense to begin with, now they need to find some way to acquire an offense at all for next year.
If Wisco happens to make the Championship game it'll be a surprise because they return even fewer starters than Nebraska. PSU has a better shot, but Wisco could still do it.I expect the Vegas over/under for wins in 2012 will be 8. Most people expected an 8 or 9 win season, even without the coaching change.
Improved D, improved O, improved special teams, including a kicker, would have all happened even without the change. I'm expecting improved coaching, as well.
I'm obviously biased, but I would not be surprised if Michigan gets some pre-season mention as a team that could surprise a lot of people.
Some good breaks here and there, some pleasant surprises in player development, and this team could be the beginning of something quite special.Just a quick update.
Apparently according to mspeedkills twitter account he says that Elijah shumate and Yuri wright both plan to visit michigan.Shumate wants to visit before the season, while wright wants to take an official.
I wouldn't read into it too much, but this makes me think that richardson is a"soft"verbal and the coaches just wanna make sure they have backup plans.Word is that Sheldon Day might be going to the BBQ. I wonder if we can get two top DT. Its a position of need I dont know why we wouldnt if they are both top recruits. Pipkins,Day or O'Brien if we can get two of those guys I hope the coaches take them both. Much easier for one of these guys to play DT than have one of are DE turn into a DT.
ReplyDeleteNot to say they're the same, but Godin has the same bodytype/skillset as Suh did in high school. 6'5"-6'6" DE/DT, highly athletic pass rusher, coming in at around 275 lbs. Godin can easily gain 10 more before Sept. 2012. Sheldon Day wouldn't surprise me at the BBQ. He grew up a Michigan fan and lives close by in Indianapolis. He could make an even better 3 tech than OBrien would if he paired with Pipkins.
ReplyDeleteI love the way this recruiting class is shaping up and can't wait to see the job that Hoke/Mattison due with the defense this year. The D may not be back to what it was for decades all the way up through the mid-2000s, but there is going to be significant improvement with more experience at all positions and hopefully (fingers crossed) a lot less injuries in the secondary. I'm looking forward to hearing this on 4th down again more than 2 or 3 times a game...

Fusarium Head Blight of Wheat
Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) Also called head scab Caused by the fungus Fusarium – Survives on grass crop residues Corn Grain Sorghum Small grains Fusarium shown growing on wheat residue in picture to the right
Credit: M. McMullen & S. Zhong North Dakota State Univ. Life Cycle of FHB
FHB Life Cycle Wheat is infected at the flowering stage Environmental conditions required for infection – Free moisture – Temperatures from 75 to 85 F – Source of inoculant These conditions are less prevalent during flowering west of I-35 than east of I-35
FHB Symptoms Bleached or white heads with pink or salmon-colored residue Heads can be partially infected Other things can cause similar symptoms and be misdiagnosed as FHB – Freeze injury – Hail damage – Waterlogged conditions – Various root rots
FHB on some partially-infected wheat heads
Partially infected wheat heads on the left and entirely infected head on the right Note the pink/salmon color in the black circle
Normally developing grains of wheat FHB-infected grains
FHB Consequences FHB-infected grain can contain compounds called mycotoxins DON (deoxynivalenol – also called 'vomitoxin') is the most common of these compounds FDA guidelines for use of DON-infected wheat are in the table to the right UseFDA Advisory Level Human Consumption 1 part per million (PPM) for finished grain products for human consumption. No standard for raw grain going into milling process. Cattle over 4 months old 10 ppm (providing grain at that level doesn't exceed 50 percent of diet). Poultry10 ppm (providing grain at that level doesn't exceed 50 percent of diet). Swine5 ppm (not to exceed 20 percent of ration). All other animals 5 ppm (providing grains don't exceed 40 percent of diet).
FHB Management to Reduce Risk Crop rotation – rotate to a non- host crop such as sunflower, soybean, or sesame Tillage – getting rid of the corn or wheat residue will reduce the amount of inoculant present Fungicides – triazole fungicides applied at flowering can provide suppression but not complete control

This information is provided only as a guide. It is the responsibility of the pesticide applicator by law to read and follow all current label directions. No endorsement is intended for products listed, nor is criticism meant for products not listed.
FHB Management of Harvested Grain Increase air flow– remove shriveled seed by increasing combine airflow Clean seed– remove as many small seed as possible by post- harvest screening and cleaning Seed treatment – if seed will be saved for planting, consider applying a seed treatment. The same fungus that causes FHB causes many seedling diseases
Summary FHB requires a specific set of environmental conditions for infection of wheat. Planting wheat after a non-host crop will greatly decrease the likelihood of infection. FHB-infected grain may or may not be useable depending on the level of mycotoxins in the grain.

Lowe's Cos., the country's second-largest home improvement retailer, sees a "window of opportunity" during this current soft business cycle to solidify its relationship with customers and improve the productivity of its operations, which include more than 1,400 stores nationwide. "Our goal is to create a new standard for the industry," Robert Niblock, Lowe's chairman and CEO, told investors and analysts at its annual conference, which the retailer this morning held in Charlotte, N.C., and simultaneously webcasted.
The downturn in the housing market, as well as drought conditions in several of its markets this summer, have had a negative impact on Lowe's sales and earnings in 2007. But the company is still on pace to open between 150 and 155 stores this year, including its first foray into Canada with six stores scheduled to open in the Greater Toronto market in December and January. (Lowe's eventually wants to plant 100 stores in Canada.) And while it projects comp-store sales declines through 2010, the company anticipates double-digit sales and earnings gains during each of the next three fiscal years, when it expects to add between 135 and 140 new stores per year, and to enter Mexico in 2009.
Lowe's sees a $755 billion market for home improvement-related goods and services in North America that it wants to take a bigger chunk out of. Expansion is one way: the company has 400 store sites that it has either approved or has under development, and another 500 potential sites it has identified for growth over the next five to seven years. Company officials point out as well that Lowe's is the market-share leader in only seven of its 20 major product categories, and that its stores capture business from just slightly more than three-fifths of the 13 million customers who come into them every week. Larry Stone, Lowe's president and COO, said that if each customer made one more purchase at the company's $68.13-per-transaction average, its annual sales would increase by $1 billion.
Company officials outlined several of the ways that Lowe's is attempting to increase its market share. "The next growth curve," said Niblock, could be in-home management of big-ticket projects for time-strapped "do it for me" customers, where Lowe's would provide extensive planning and product coordination, as well as the execution. Lowe's is testing this program in four markets currently, and Niblock sees this as a way for Lowe's to get customers to spend more with his company. Mike Brown, Lowe's executive vice president of store operations, noted that stores in Atlanta, Dallas and Philadelphia are testing an in-home installed sales model; and that three markets are experimenting with repair services for appliances, Lowe's single-biggest sales category.
Several Lowe's officials said that one of the keys to sustaining its growth will for its stores to meet customer expectations for "shopability," which is probably Lowe's single greatest advantage over rival The Home Depot. Over the past five years, the retailer has spent $2.5 billion upgrading existing stores, which has included making dramatic improvements in product signage and packaging, and maintaining the "clean and bright" shopping environment that has become its calling card.
The company has a number of new store formats in the works, too, that might fit better in different-sized markets than its typical 117,000-square-foot and 94,000-square-foot footprints. Under construction is an 80,000-square-foot store, with an attached drive-through lumberyard on the side, which the company will open next year. Lowe's is also developing a two-level store that would have 75,000 square feet of selling space on the first floor, 40,000 on the second and another 20,000 square feet for lawn and garden. Lastly, in the conceptual stage is a smaller store for standalone markets whose populations are less than 250,000. "We know how to run small stores," says Greg Bridgeford, Lowe's executive vice president of business development, who recalled that when he joined Lowe's in the 1970s, the company's store size averaged 13,350 square feet.
Creating a sales culture
Company officials spoke at length during the conference about how streamlining its operations is helping Lowe's to realize its growth ambitions. For example, merchandising has been reorganized so that related product groups - such as appliances, kitchens and baths; or lawn and garden and outdoor power equipment - fall under the supervision of one of five general merchandise managers. A separate senior vice president oversees global sourcing, which accounts for $6 billion of Lowe's annual sales and most of the proprietary brands its stores carry. (Lowe's is now the sixth-largest user of ocean-freight containers in the U.S.)
About three-quarters of its stores' inventory is funneled through Lowe's internal distribution network, so it's imperative for the company to be able to respond quickly to changing market conditions in order to keep its product levels under control. To that end, Lowe's spent three years developing a demand planning system that it started implementing at its distribution centers this July. That system is informed by sales forecasts that go out as far as 52 weeks, and vendor order forecasts that go out 26 weeks.
Improving freight flow is one of Lowe's five operational strategies, according to Brown. Two others focus on creating a "sales culture" within its stores, and building a corps of tenured and talented employees. The company grades each store every quarter along several criteria - employee selling skills, installed sales, delivery, the checkout experience and phone service - and rewards top employees with gifts (including cars) and cash. It also identifies those employees it believes are qualified to step into management positions as it expands. (Brown said 8,000 of Lowe's 210,000 employees are "ready to take the next level of responsibility.")
Another strategy is to reach more customers through special orders and eCommerce, which account for 10 percent of its annual sales. Lowe's recently started rolling out an electronic installed sales contract, and over the past year has increased, by 54 percent to 55,000 SKUs, the number of items it offers for sale via its website, Lowes.com, which receives 3 million visitors per week.
