|This seriously may be the…
This seriously may be the stupidest take I have ever seen on this board. And that says a lot. I lived through the RichRod years, the Hoke years, the Dave Branden years and all of the various coaching searches, and I can say without hesitation that I can't remember a less good post than this.
Not because I am overly PC or offended - but because this is just a stupid take. OL is perhaps the most race-diverse position in football. If you want to say that there tend to be a lot more star WR, CB and RB that are African American (purely by numbers), then fine. But OL? Some of the best OL in CFB and the NFL are white. And Samoan. And black. And a host of other origins. Oh, and Taylor Lewan was totally a guy who backed down from a fight and talking shit.

Looks like this may be fixed since I was just able to log in for the first time in a few days.
Obviously, some of this is not liking change, but so far I am really not loving the 3.0. The design is really unappealing (too much white, the banner is cluttered and the links to stories below the banner are annoying) and, perhaps worst of all, on mobile, you have to scroll all the way down to get to the MgoBoard, which is what I am usually checking. I really miss the MgoBlog app. For all of its issues, it worked great.

I am pretty sure that this is not political (and it is certainly not meant to be political):
I think that income tax brackets should be indexed to geographic cost of living. What is "rich" in Iowa would not even be considered middle class in NYC or LA.

You are wrong that "Most Championship Bulls teams without MJ would make the ECF"
The two years that Jordan retired (which were sandwiched between his two sets of thee-peats), almost the exact same team that had won the prior three championships DID NOT MAKE THE NBA FINALS. They lost to teams that didn't even win the championship.
|05/10/2018 - 1:16pm
Are you serious? If so, can I ask you how old you are? Did you watch MJ?
Over an 8-year span, he won 2 sets of three championships each! Take a look at the rosters those teams:
The first three-peat had Jordan and Pippen and . . . the following, who each played around or over 20 minutes a game: BJ Armstrong, Bill Cartright (ancient version), Horace Grant, John Paxson, Rodney McCray and Scott Williams.
He took that collection of crap to THREE STRAIGHT CHAMPIONSHIPS.
Most of the same cast - including Pippen - came back the next two years when Jordan retired and guess what happened? They didn't even make it to the finals - they lost to Eastern Conference teams that DIDN'T EVEN WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP. Almost the identical case.
After his two years off, Jordan came back in 1996 and guess what happened? Three straight NBA Championships again. This time, his cast of contributors included (aside from Pippen an Jordan) such superstar talent as Ron Harper, Steve Kerr, Toni Kukoc, Luc Longley (as a starter!!) and Bill Wellinhton. The only other talented player who he had was Dennis Rodman (who was a dominent rebounder, but contributed 5 points a game).
Tell me again how Jordan could not singlehandedly raise his team from garbat to contender?
|05/10/2018 - 12:35pm
I can't tell if you left off the /s or not, but you are completely wrong on this.
LBJ is a physical specimin. He is in insane physical shape and he is arguably one of the strongest, most conditioned athletes of all time. One should not be able to move that well at his size, but he does. But, that does not equate with being the best basketball player of all time.
A few counter-points to consider:
1. Michael Jordan played during an era in which defense was at all all time high in the NBA. Look at the teams that he had to battle year after year - the early 90's Knicks (Oakley, Mason, Ewing on the inside), the late 80's / early 90's Pistons, etc. Not only were those teams comprised of players who prided themselves on their defense, they were PHYSICAL! Look at the average score then vs. the average score now if you don't agree with this point. And MJ still scored around 30 a game. Not saying that LBJ wouldn't be a top player back then, but it would be hell of a lot harder than doing it against the matador defenses of the NBA today.
2. The hand check rule. Back when MJ played, hand checking was permitted. Remove that and MJ may have scored 50 a game.
3. Defense. Not taking a bit away from LBJ on defense, but MJ had the ability to completely shut down the opposing team's top guard. Completely. His defense was on another level.
4. MJ didn't play on hand-picked "all star teams" (other than the Dream Team) - it was him, Pippen and a who lot of nobodies (who he made look good by regularly drawing double and triple teams - and still scoring). It's a lot harder to dominate the way that MJ did when the teams know that if they stop you, they stop the whole team.
I really believe that anyone who is on team LBJ in this debate wasn't old enough to appreciate just how insanely dominant MJ was. That's not anyone's fault - I see the stats, but I don't appreciate just how dominent Wilt Chamberlain was. But, as someone who has closely watched both MJ and LBJ, I have to say that it's not even close.

|work travel
I travel for work anywhere between 5 and 20 nights per year. Usually for no longer than 2-3 days at a time.
i have two kids and a wife at home, and generally speaking, I don't like being away from them, and I especially hate when I have to travel on days where I will miss one of my kids' little leage, soccer or other games.
That all said, because I work kind of long hours, and spend pretty much all of my non-work time with my wife and kids (not complaining at all, it's a good thing), I've learned to enjoy the short work travel. I usually start the day with a longer-than-usual workour in the hotel gym followed by a relaxed room service breakfast while I switch between watching the news, CNBC and SportsCenter pm TV (which I almost never have time to do at home).
After the work portion of my day is done, I often try to get in a second workout in the hotel gym, followed by a relaxing room service meal (again with some mindless TV), and then, aside from spending a bunch of time on the phone with my wife and kids, I usually end the night reading whatever book I loaded up on my kindle.
Overall, I miss being home with the family, but it is usually a super relaxing few days.

|Point Guard
First, I don't remember this series from the past, but I am pumped to read the next few installments. If Mo does come back, we should be even better next year than this year.
As to point guard, I expect that X will spend the next 6-8 month locked in a gym doing nothing but working on his shooting motion. Will be suddenly become Stauskas? No. But, I expect his FT number to get up to around 60% and his 3-pt percentage to break 33%. Not offensive weapon numbers, but also numbers that don't make him an offensive liability.
As good as Simpson's defense is, his offense is currently such a liability that it caps our overall offense significantly. One of the things that I notices during the tournement was that defenses showed Simpson's outside shot virtually no respect - on ball defenders played well off, limiting Simpson's ability to take it to the rim, and off ball defenders cheated off of him badly, making it more difficult for other to get open looks. Simpson does not need to be an offensive star, but he needs to get his outside shot and FT shooting to a level where teams have to respect him on offense.
|04/03/2018 - 12:00am
Pretty much sums up the season.
It was enough. We all wanted more but it is hard not to be excited about the direction of this program. If Mo comes back, we could be right back here next year.

|Awesome post
From one Passover-loving Jew to another, Seth you just hit it out of the park with that one. Dayenu perfectly encamsulates this entire run. Had we beaten Sparty, both on the road and at MSG, this season would have been great. Remember, this is a rebuilding year. Had we toppled Purdue to win the BTT but gone out relatively early in the tourney, it would have been fine. The MSG experience was awesome and winning the conference in that manner made for a great season. Had Poole's miracle gone in but we lost the next game to a pretty good Texas A&M team, it would have been an awesome ride and one we would all remember. Had we lost to FSU and their athletic superfreeks, what a season. And has we lost to the Rambling Sister Jeans, any year in which we make a final four is a resounding success. It would have been sufficient. But to be playing for the National Championship - win or lose, just getting here again is amazing. We are at Dayenu for the season.
Now let's go pull off the upset and give the best coach in college bball his 800th win and first of several national championships.
|03/16/2018 - 9:35am
This is not remotely a criticism of Mo, but when Teske was in, he was going good things. He blocked or altered a bunch of shots, and his offense was at least as good as Mo's was in that game.
My speculation is that JB knows that we need Mo to be right if we want to make a run, and since the game was not in any real jeopardy in the second half, he was playing Mo to see if he could work off some of the rust and get his game back on point. If that's the case, I can see the reasoning (although Mo never really pulled it together in this game).
|03/15/2018 - 11:09pm
Teske has blocked like 25 shots so far. Why does Beilein keep going back to Wagnerian quickly. It's working so I am not complaining. Just curious.

I don't think he said that. But, once you are married, many decision become "joint" decisions - and that applies to both men and women. Kate would have as much right to weigh in if Justin wanted to post naked pics on line as Justin would if Kate were going to post the same.
Maybe Justin doesn't care. But, I don't see it as oppressing women to say that a husband might have an opinion on something like this, and that the wife migh want to consider that opinion. I would say the exact same thing regarding a husband's conduct.

|Hard Pass
As a big Giants fan, here's my $.02 on McAdoo:
1. The Gients were undone this season by insanely bad OL play. The OL's inability to run or pass block completely killed the offense's ability to run or throw the ball. What is worse, the issues with the NYG offence this season were IDENTICAL to those of the second half of the prior season.
Just saying that if I were a team coming off of a historically bad offensive season, where by biggest deficinecy was the OL, I might want to look elsewhere.
2. During his last season, it came out that the Giants' players almost uniformly hated the guy. He was especially terrible at dealing with the younger players on the roster.
Being unable to deal with younger NFL players might not translate well to the college level.
3. After watching how this guy carries himself, there is NO WAY that he would be a good recruiter.
If I were a team that has been struggling with recruiting, I might want to find a 10th coach who can actually help, you know, recruit.
Please take Mr. I Love Sharks over this guy.

Every team loses a number of starters every season to graduation or the FNL. It's not uncommon for a team to lose 3-5 on each side of the ball. Sure, losing star players like Baker Mayfield or Josh Rosen will almost always be felt significantly, but losing a wide receiver, or even a few linemen is common and rarely causes a significant drop off. in most cases, teams like ND have quality, experienced depth ready to step in so that even if there is a drop-off, it is not significant. ND has recruited fairly well, and has had a relatively stable staff in place for more than 3-4 seasons, so I would imagine that their roster is stable enough that these losses will not be all that harmful.
I think that as Michigan fans, we may slightly overestimate the effect of graduation because when we have lost quality starters in the past few years, the back-ups have been very young, inexperienced players. This, however, is the result of changing coaches 3 times in a decade, which has effectivley caused us to take off a few recruiting years.

Need? No. Want? Yes.
Sure beats a lot of the other OT crap that fills the board in the offseason.
Plus, an offer to a likely top-100 kid from Detroit who is likely to actually come here seems worthy of a thread. NOt as worthy as Rutgers' basketball team or what the coach of MSU ate for breakfast while thinking about Harbaugh, obviously, but still important.
|12/13/2017 - 11:48am
I caught that too, but at the same time, I attributed our lack of strength to our youth. No matter what type of S&C program you have, a 19 year old can only get so strong, as compared with 21-23 year olds.
That said, if Jim views this as an area in which we can improve, who are any of us to disagree.

|My analysis
This year was frustrating, but to anyone paying attention, the strugles that we had (aside from QB) should have been largely expected. We were insanely young at so many spots. Quite frankly, it could have been a hell of a lot worse (see FSU, Florida, etc.).
Looking at this post, I am really optimistic about next season. Here's my reasoning:
The defense returns pretty much everyone other than Mo Hurst and McCray. Mo is a HUGE loss, but we have a ton of guys who got experience this year who will step in. In every other position across the ENTIRE DEFENSE, we should improve, because almost every position sees the same player return with another year of experience and S&C. With a defense made up largely of underclassmen, I expect that every one of these players will be a better version of their 2017 self next year.
Now to the offense. The receivers were a disaster this year. Some of that is on the OL and much on the QB, but there is a reason that this blog has a "freshman receivers" tag. There are rarely good, often because they don't have the complexities of the offense and route tree down. The good news is that all of our WRs are back and a year older / more experienced. I expect the WR position to improve significantly. Same goes for the TE position (same players, a year older, etc.) and the RB position.
Now let's turn to the areas of concern:
for QB, while Wilton struggled, we were able to win when he was playing. Same goes for Peters (he missed half of the Wisco game, but when he was in, he was moving the ball and we scored some points). All of our losses came when JOK played significant time. JOK is gone and whomever is the starter next year CANNOT POSSIBLY be more of a liability than non-Purdue JOK was. Even if Peters comes back and plays exactly as he did this year, it is STILL an improvement from the JOK portion of this season.
Finally, the OL will have a very solid interior with Ruiz, Onweno and Bredenson. All will be better than this past season because of , again, age and experience. As for the tackles, of the 10 possibilities that we have, I expect that we will fiend 2-3 who are decent enough not to be a liability. I know that Cole was a 4-year starter and very good center, but at LT he was often overmatched. Losing a senior starter sucks, but in this case, I am not sure that whomever replaces him will be a downgrade.
tl;dr: We return almost everyone and are going to be really good.
|11/27/2017 - 1:40pm
So Brady is an inch shorter and 12 pounds heavier. If the extra inch is worth 3-5 poinds of weight, then McCaff needs to gain appriximately 15-20 points to be in the same range. Which is exactly what most posters in this thread have said.
McCaff may have huge upside, but if he doesn't put on another 15-18 pounds of muscle, he is going to get broken when he takes hits from some of the larger, angrier DL that we face.
But, from someone very experienced in S&C and weight lifting generally, asking a kid who is 6'5" and only 18 years old to put on 15 pounds in a year is not asking all that much. A fairly untrained lifter (and while he may have lifted in high school, make no mistake that as a skinny kid entering a D1 S&C program for the first time, he would be considered "untrained"), with a solid lifting program, a solid diet and solid sleep habits can EASILY put on a pound a month. If he puts in the work, there is no reason that he couldn't be 210 (or a few pounds heavier) at the start of next season.

|Nice narrative but no
A few points:
2. If you really believe that "money is the root of all evil" crap, then it would actually be in the B1G's interest for us to win this game. A rivalry in which OSU wins for like 20 straight yesss isn't a real rivalry. A renewed M/OSU rivalry that is roughly equally balanced is big profit for the B1G. Arguably, the best conference game of the year has been reduced to a national afterthought.
3. Even if the BIG wanted OSU to win for $$ reasons, that wouldn't explain why we get hosed in almost every other game. We are certainly a bigger cash cow than Wisconsin (DPJ non-touchdown), Sparty any missed PI calls) and every their team that gets suspect calls over us.
I agree that we are getting screwed, but $$ isn't the reason. We are getting screwed because either the refs just suck or they don't like our head coach.

I am not trying to bash O'Korn, but at this point, the sample size is good enough to say that he is not a D1 QB in this offense. He might be fine running something different or simpler, but he clearly just doesn't have it in the harboffense, and the coaches have so little confidence in either (a) his ability; (b) his decision making; or (c) his knowledge of the offense, that they will not let him even attempt much more than handoffs and a few short tosses. This makes our offense so one-dimensional that it is painfully easy to stop.
Saturday should be fun.

|Great column
There have been a ton of "a call for calm" or "don't overreact" posts over the past few week. Most make really valid points, but because of the nature of board posts, the discussions devolves into a series of "quit telling me to be patient," "stop posting hot takes," and "but we keep losing to OSU / MSU" comments.
This post - and the manner in which it was presented as the question of the week - was fantastic. Basically, it's a bunch of smart people, who all know a lot about both football and Michigan football, and who have a rational thought process, discussing the state of the program and, generally, coming to the consensus that:
(1) we are on track, pretty much everywhere;
(2) we basically hit our expecations for the season, given our youth, roster imbalances and 2 QB injuries, and
(3) next year, we are going to be a whole lot better across the board, if for no reasons that every player will be a year older, stronger and more experienced.
|11/21/2017 - 12:01pm
I get that the MSU game is frustrating, and I am as upset his season as anyone, but people need to keep in mind that he game was played with our backup QB (who, in retrospect, is really not serviceable) and in which the entire second half was played in a tornado. Sucks to lose that game but there are reasons other Jan "we suck".
|11/17/2017 - 4:04pm
|Michigan Win
We match up fairly well in this one:
1. The strength of the Wisconsin offense, like all prior Winconsins, is their rushing attack. Specifically, a ground and pound inside run game. They have a depleted OL going up against Mo Hurst, Gary, etc. In short, our defense lines up well to take away the entirety of the Wisconsin offense.
2. Wisconsin's passing offense is really weak. And they have injuries to the WRs. And a QB who likes to throw to players wearing non-Wisconsin jerseys. Our secondary may be a bit suspect at the whole tackling thing, but they are good in coverage, and athletic, and should either completely shut down the Wisco passing attack or have the ability to create turnovers.
Points 1 and 2 lead me to believe that we will hold Wisconsin in check. They will move the ball some, and score a touchdown ot 2 (likely 2), but they will also stopped with regularity or held to FGs. Hence, my 20 point preduction.
3. Michigan has a damn strong rushing attack. Wisconsin's D is a scary thing and will likely shut us down to a large degree. Maybe. Wisconsin's stats are awesome, but they haven't played a single real team. I still think that our size up front should test Wisconsin more than any other team that they faced.
4. Our passing offense. I get Brian's doom and gloom. We can't pass protect and Wisconsin is really good at rushing the passer. My hope here is based in Harbaugh. He has had three weeks to scheme up some counters, trick plays and wrinkles that might force Wisconsin to adjust. Get them off balance and perhaps that opens up the run and passing game a bit.
I know that points 3 and 4 argue for less than 24 points by us, but for some reason, I think that we win this game in a close one, setting up an awesome Game on 11/25 pitting 2 top-15 teams against each other.

I know that high school numbers are always off (lower completion percentages, etc.) but 46% completion seems low. Also, 166 caries for a total of 274? For a guy who is regarded as fairly athletic, that just seems off. There is no way they are running a guy 166 times over 3 seasons if he is running for under 2 ypc.

I can't even begin to understand what you and your wife must be feeling. As a parent, I am so sorry for your loss. I hope that you both find confort after this horrible tragedy.
Don't be a stranger here on MGoBlog. While I am sure that this loss gave you a ton of perspective, it is important for you and your wife not to completely abandon those things that previously brought you happiness. After my dad died a sudden and unexpected death, I also lost my excitement for a number of things. I found that with time, it was important to reconnect with things that previously brought me happiness. Hope to see you back here soon.

|could not agree more
Let's examine Lloyd Carr's tenure:
1. He won a freaking National Championship! While fielding perhaps the greatest defense in the history of college football.]
2. Out of 13 seasons, 6 were at least 10 win season (including the perfect National Championship season). With one exception, the rest were all 8-win or better, and most were 9-win or better.
3. In 5 of his season, he lost one or fewer conference games. He never lost more than 3 conference games.
4. In 13 seasons, he won two outright B10 championships and tied for 3 more.
5. During his entire tenure, there was no even a hint of any NCAA impropriety. He ran perhaps the classiest program possible.
6. For those who don't like Harbaugh's "antics" (I personally don't mind them and usually like what he does publicly), Carr almost never made headlines for anything other than winning.
Yup, I would take another Lloyd Carr era any day. My hope is that Harbaugh can replicate that level of success. My expectaiton is that he will, but the roster was so uneven as a result of so many coaching changes in a short period of time and it will take a few years of stability to get the program to where it needs to be (i.e. upperclassmen starting in most spots, redshirting all OL and QB, not playing OL until they have had 2-3 years in the program, never again playing a freshman WR, etc.)

|awesome post
The linked article should be required reading for all Michigan fans. The analytics there are pretty hard to refute. Given how many starters we lost, what we are experiencing right now is not only expected, but probably not as bad as it would be if we didn't have a top flight coaching staff.
And, while the article predicted some pretty serious regression, it made that prediction assuming that we would be returning our QB. We did, and we didn't lose a single game with him. But, losing the QB - when combined with all of the other starters who did not return from last year is just too much to paper over with HARBAUGH AND DON BROWN WILL MAKE US WIN. It just doesn't work that way unless you have an OSU / Alabama roster. We don't, and other than those to schools, nobody else does either.
As a final note, the article posted doesn't take into account that our roster is devoid of upperclassmenm as a result of a coaching change a few years back. While I can't find the post, I recall a few years back that someone on this blog did an awesome analysis of the value of returning upperclassmen, as opposed to younger players, and the conclusion was that having lots of seniors and juniors as starters makes a huge difference.
So, combine that analysis with the article linked by the OP, and I expect that we are actually well exceeding our expectations this season. If we end up at 8-4, given our roster make-up, we should all be applauding our coaching staff and eagerly awaiting the future as these young players develop into seasoned, experienced starters.

|My prediction
We win the gooey middle of the schedule games, bring us to 8 wins. We nab one of the Wisco / PSU games. And, sadly, lose to OSU for the 10000th time in a row (except for the Luke Fickell year).
9-3 gets us to some non-descript NY day bowl in Florida where our team uses the bowl practices to get right and we dominate some middling SEC squad for our 10th win.
Many will complain about the losses to our rivals, but it will be Harbaugh's 3rd 10-win season in a row, and we will be set up well for a monster 2018 season (bc in my prediction, Peters takes over at QB for Rutgerzzz a really has a coming out party in the bowl).

After what I saw, I would almost seriously prefer that they go with 5 OL, 3 TE heavy on one side, 2 FB and a RB on almost every play. Yes, we are about to run the ball. Now see if you can stop it in less than 3.5 yards. Rinse, wash, repeat.

Here's are some choices for how Harbaugh or just about any experienced coach would answer:
1. Next question
2. That's a terrible question and I'm not even going to respond.
3. Well, MinWhisky, I disagree with your premise that our QBs haven't grown and impoved. They have. Are there errors? Sure, but not all of those are on the QB. On an interception, for example, you are quick to blame the QB, but it could equally be a receiver not running the proper route. But, as coaches, we watch these guys day in and day our in practice, and we watch and rewatch every single snap of the games over and over and let me tell you, these guys are improving every day. JOK made some really good throws today and he also made a few that he would probably like to have back. He also made some really great, smart reads. And I see his confidence improving every day, and along with that, I expect big things from him. Great guy. Hard working guy. Good work ethic.

|next year
To me, what is most upsetting about all of this is that based upon this analysis, while next year should be better, it will still not be great. We will still be really young. Our top receivers project to be the massive haul from this year (which will be a combination of redshirt freshmen and true sophs) and grant perry. That's still super young. On the OL, we are still going to be very young, as well (and not all that deep). Our only positions at which we will have some upperclassmen in key roles will be RB (Higdon will be a true junior, as will Evans) and TE (Gentry, TW JR., Eubanks and the rest will be upperclassmen). It's better than this year, but far from ideal. To me, the biggest question is will we have Wilton Speight (a senior, with a ton of experience, who has shown the ability to play smart and well), a Junior Peters (who knows - tons of sprint hype, but apparently not even close to ready and almost zero game experience) or a redshirt freshman D.McCaffrey (potential for miles, but freshmen QBs scare me).
|10/16/2017 - 10:33am
I usually agree with most of Brian's analysis but i recall reading the season preview and thinking that he was WAY under-valuing the impact of losing senior receivers like Darboh and Chessen and replacing them with true freshmen and sophomores. Plugging in a 4 or even 5 star recruit looks great on paper, but until that 4-5* kid learns how the play the game - a process that takes a few years, especially at receiver - he isn't going to anything approaching an upgrade. This is the reason that a school like Wisconsin is steady and pretty good year after year after year. While they don't recruit the talent to hang with the like of Bama, OSU or Clemson, they are consistently top 15 and competing for division titles because they are able to redshirt their players, let them develop and generally field teams consisting largely of upper class men. The importance of this can't be overstated and appears to be lost on a huge portion of our fan base.

We Need You More Than Ever
Posted by osborne2029
God of all comfort, dying souls need to feel Your love today. They have been attacked in their spirits, and beaten down by life. The drug addict, the abused, the prostitute, the tycoon, souls struggling to survive on welfare and disability, and the starving children, men, and women throughout our world; they all need to be lifted out of their dungeon of hopelessness and despair. Our world needs You, Lord, more than ever. Those living in poverty of mind, body and spirit need a reason to go on. They need their political leaders, community and neighbours to reach out to them. Father, they need to have Your hope. Oh, how we all need to feel and know Your love even when we think that we do not!
Lord, hear the suffering, the lonely and dejected as they call out to You. They need to know You hear them. We need to be sensitive to their deep inner torture. Melt our hearts with Your burning love. Restore to us the joy of Your salvation. Let us take time to reflect on that moment when You reached into our hearts and called us to be saved from our sins, and the moment we asked You to come into our hearts.
Give us a love for others that knows no bounds. Let our lives be spent in loving You and loving our neighbours as You would have us love them. Help us to lift up a troubled soul, mend a wounded heart, and bring comfort to those who feel all alone and unwanted.
Put a joy within us that will carry us through the times that try the most faithful soul. Help us to live each day as a divine and precious gift. Let us thank You for our lives. Help us take time to smell a flower, listen to the chirping of a robin and feel the wind brush our cheek. Revive our longing spirits that are in such desperate need to be loved, understood and accepted.
Lord, we can't make it through this life without You. Yes, Lord, we need You more than ever. We need You now. Hear and answer the prayers of all who seek You each day.

And Amen!
Thanks for the "And Amen."
You offer thought-provoking perspectives about life and society on your blog with a strong focus on scriptural application. Very well done piece on zombies in the movies. So much of our TV programs today have dark themes. Even Turner Classic Movies is playing the movie "Divorce American Style." How about having a movie produced called "Marriage – God's Way"? Somehow, with how humanism is the norm of our postmodern world and how you can have some of God and do your own thing to, a movie focused on keeping marriages together wouldn't get top box office profits. What does that say about our society?
Keep up the insightful writing! It is a much-needed blog in our post modernist society.
God's richest blessings!
Thanks for your comments, Kevin! We may be voices in the wilderness…but we know that sharing God's love and truth is part of our calling. Keep praying for clear communicator's of the Faith to be active in all forms of our current media! Blessings to you! ~Laura
You're welcome, Laura. I will pray for clear communicators of the faith to be involved in all forms of media. Let us also pray for more truth tellers of the news as opposed to the journalism of sensationalism. For example, how many times and from how many angles do we need to see the collpase of the twin towers of 911? This displayed the worst of what journalism has come to be.
Journalism that seeks to deal with societal issues such as poverty shows the best of what the media can be. As a journalist, graduate theological student and social advocate, I pray I will always speak the truth even if that means people will vehemently oppose me. We all in our own way are called to be communicators of the truth, even if that is done with ministry over a cup of coffee.
Have a Son-filled week!
Thank you! God's blessings to you!
I need Him today Kevin. I need his comfort right now. people around suffers and there's is little I could do for them.
Marmar, I am praying right now for God to bring comfort to you. It is when we feel helpless to right all the wrongs of this world, that our Lord can use us the most. In our fallen world we won't fix everything, but in God's economy to help reach out and change one life, who will change another, who will change another life, that's something very powerful.
Marmar, just think that there are over 12,000 people all around the world who follow your blog. Just think for a moment if each of those people helped change only one life, who changed another life, that would be over 24,000 lives changed. That'e enough people for a whole small city in Canada. That's a lot of people. Add that to the over 12,000 lives you are already touching and that's over 36,000 lives you've touched because of God working in you.
The reality is that most of us are used by our Lord to change more than one life, so let's say 12,000 people following your blog help change five lives, and those people in turn change five lives, that's 60,000 plus 60,000, that's now 120,000 lives that have been changed.
So, brother, God is using you to be both a community and a world changer.
I believe this blog is growing because God's hand is upon it. People are thinking about the thoughts we share, really thinking. You are being faithful. God will do the rest.
Will we solve the problems of poverty and the ills of society, no. The problems are too entrenched in a world where there are those who need to learn the value of giving, and not hoarding what they have.
The Enemy wants us to feel helpless and ineffectual. The forces of darkness would love nothing more than to shut us down. But this is when we must stand firm in our resolve to be Christ's ambassadors of light and hope.
We need to pray and then pray some more as we seek God's wisdom and guidance.
We won't win every battle, but heh, we're in there slugging. And in the final analysis, that's all God wants from any one of us.
I hope these words even in some small way have helped to inspire you to keep fighting. Marmar, we're in the corner right with you, praying for you and fighting alongside you.
The peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
THank you Kevin. God bless you.
You're welcome. Have a Son-filled day!

Because pedestrian injuries are the most common injuries to children on Halloween, remind Trick-or-Treaters:Stay in a group and communicate where they will be going. Remember reflective tape for costumes and trick-or-treat bags. Carry a cellphone for quick communication. Remain on well-lit streets and always use the sidewalk. If no sidewalk is available, walk at the far edge of the roadway facing traffic. Never cut across yards or use alleys. Only cross the street as a group in established crosswalks (as recognized by local custom). Never cross between parked cars or out driveways. Don't assume the right of way. Motorists may have trouble seeing Trick-or-Treaters. Just because one car stops, doesn't mean others will! Law enforcement authorities should be notified immediately of any suspicious or unlawful activity.

Here are some fall road tips to avoid an accident:Wildlife is most active at dusk and dawn, according to the Colorado Parks Department, and the limited light during these times makes it more difficult for drivers to see animals in the road. Plan drives during daylight hours to reduce the risk of animal collision. Busy school zones and streets popular with trick-or-treaters make it even more important to remain vigilant while driving. When possible, avoid driving through these areas or consider walking or biking to school or other fall activities. Use the middle lane if you're on a multilane road when possible. This will give you more time to spot an animal that is trying to cross ahead of you. Portions of your route to work could convert to school zones during certain hours of the day. Obey all posted speed limits, watch for children in the street and pay extra attention around school buses. It's illegal in all 50 states to pass a bus that is loading or unloading children on an undivided roadway.
If you hit an animal, pull over and call local law enforcement. They can direct you to your next step. In some states, there are special requirements regarding animal collisions. Once home, check with your department of motor vehicles to make sure you've covered all your bases

What's a party without entertainment? If you've ever had the experience of going to a karaoke bar, you know how fun it can be to get together with friends and poorly sing along to your favorite tunes. The downside to a karaoke bar is that you also have to listen to strangers' poorly sung tunes.
With a product like this Bluetooth Karaoke Microphone you can bring the bar experience home, and you'll avoid having to listen to people you don't know sing songs you don't like! This is a blast for themed parties like an 80's or 90's night. You might even find out one of your friends is a pop star in the making!

4. Control Your Entertainment with a Smart Remote
Start the party with the touch of a button.
One reason many people don't want to throw parties is the time it takes to set everything up. Maybe you've grown lazy and have started just putting out a cheese platter and leaving all your remote controls out for guests to make their own entertainment choices. That's a huge mistake, you need to create a festive atmosphere for your guests to get them into the party spirit!
Luckily, now you can set up your perfect party entertainment with the click of a button. Smart remotes like the Logitech Harmony Elite allow you to control all your devices (TVs, video games, lighting, speakers, and more) at once. They even have special settings like "dinner party" and "morning" that let you choose your preferences for any given situation in advance, and activate them with one simple click.

5. Create Perfect Party Lighting & Sound
Keep your guests engaged with light and sound.
The concept of "mood lighting" exists for a reason. Light actually does have a big impact on people's moods, and creating a relaxing atmosphere with light can make your home feel warm and inviting. We certainly don't all have time to run around the house lighting candles before a party, though, so a more efficient option is required.
Smart lighting is one of the most fun and simple ways to change the look and feel of your home quickly. Smart bulbs allow you to dim the lights all at once through an application on your smart phone. Even more amazing? These Sengled Pulse Dimmable LED Light Bulb with a Built-In Wireless Bluetooth JBL Speakers also allow you to play music (yes, right through your light bulbs!) throughout your home with ease.

6. Cook Delicious Appetizers with Minimal Effort
Good food with no effort, what could be better?
If you want to keep your party guests for more than an hour, you should offer them something to eat. Going all out by cooking a full meal is an admirable feat, but not realistic for most of us! Having something delicious to offer your friends is a great way to keep your friends coming over for years to come, so finding an easy solution is important for your party planning needs.
A crock pot makes cooking simple, you can place all the ingredients for a dip or BBQ in the pot and let it slow cook all day with minimal upkeep. Smart crock pots, like the Smart WiFi-Enabled WeMo Slow Cooker, take this simplicity a step further by allowing you to check in on and adjust your creation from afar with your smartphone. Your friends will love that your signature Slow Cooker Chili Queso Dip!

Throwing an epic party doesn't have to be an ordeal, smart products make it simple to put an event together in a snap. Your friends will love that you've got their needs covered, and they'll be sure to show up to future events.

So, you've decided how much weight loss you can shoot for at one time, and now you are ready to give this whole losing weight thing a try. One of the most logical ways to lose weight is to cut back on the amount of calories you are eating on a daily basis. This is pretty much rule number one from Diets 101, right? Reduce the number of calories and the number on the scale will get smaller too.
Again, this is an area where too many dieters take this notion to the extreme. I remember back in high school when a good friend of mine decided she needed to go on a diet, and she embarked on some 500 calorie a day thing that I recall seemed to involve eating copious amounts of tuna fish and celery. She lasted about a week on this plan and immediately gained back whatever weight she had dropped during that time. And really, who could blame her? We are not designed to subsist on so few calories over a short amount of time, let alone weeks and weeks.
Going back to my slow and steady wins the race analogy, when it comes to cutting calories, the little things you cut back on here and there during the day really do add up.
For example, I love the restaurant chain Baja Fresh and I eat there at least once a week. Their fish tacos speak to me—I could eat them probably every day if I had the money to do so. Each taco comes wrapped in two soft corn tortillas. When I started my weight loss program, I decided to eat just one of the tortillas with each taco. At the end of my two fish taco lunch, I was certainly as full as usual, but I had two corn tortillas sitting there on my plate that I didn't eat. To avoid wasting food, you can even order the tacos made with just one tortilla each. The package of corn tortillas in my fridge right now says each one is 110 calories. So for me, that was an easy way to cut back on 200-plus calories at just one meal. I still got my two tacos, and I still enjoyed some chips and salsa on the side, and I was still full.
Doing the math once again, 200 calories a day times seven days equals 1,400 calories. It is estimated that one pound is equal to 3,500 calories.

This is a pretty fancy tomb for the mighty sea going adventurer, Christopher Columbus. It's only half as big as his tomb in Seville--wonder where he really is? Dominicaners won't allow the contents here to be tested for authenticity, probably for good reason! Diego Columbus, his son, lies at rest here on this island without a doubt.

Strathcona Net Zero HouseThursday, April 23rd, 2015
Modern home a living laboratory in historic neighbourhood
The Strathcona Net Zero House, with an Energuide Rating of 95, is located in the 100 year-old neighbourhood of Old Strathcona in Edmonton. The area retains much of its original character including one of the most well preserved historic business districts in western Canada, along with tree-lined streets having a mixture of heritage homes, mid-century walk-up apartments, and new infill housing.

I mentioned in a previous entry that in writing my current work-in-progress (which STILL doesn't have a title…) I decided to write and finish an "A" story and then go back and write a "B" story which would be weaved into the novel. In writing the "B" story I ran across a few points where I realized that I needed to get a little more specific about the events in this world's past (I'm writing a fantasy novel in case you were wondering). I had come up with a general history of the world, but I never really got down-and-dirty with the details. So I drew up a timeline and started writing out the specific points regarding major events in the world's history.
What I accomplished without meaning to was filling in gaps that I never knew existed! Things that I had written for the "A" story now make more sense (and some will need to be changed, but that's what rewrites are for). But I also managed to accomplish the original goal, which was to be able to explain events in the story to a greater (and more believable) degree. Plus I now have a handy set of notes to refer to in case I have a question about my own world, rather than having to sift through chapter after chapter looking for that one part where the characters mentioned the event in question.
Moral of the story – you can never have too many notes about your story. Just make sure you don't spend more time on your notes than you do on your story!

Samcheong-dong is one of the most unique places in Seoul. Gyeongbokgung Palace (the home of royalty during the Joseon Dynasty) lies to its left and Changdeokgung Palace (a secondary palace during the Joseon Dynasty) to its right, with Cheong Wa Dae (the President's Office) and Insa-dong to the north and south respectively.
Samcheong-dong is said to have the absolutely ideal location. Samcheong (sam means "three" and cheong "clean or good") was given its name in reference to the three things it has plenty of: clean water, beautiful neighboring mountains and kind-hearted residents.
In fact, I like the concept of this area!
There are tonnes of tradtional designs implant with the modern technologies within those boutiques and cafes.
For example like this :
Pretty Traditional Korean house isn't it?
BUT..it's actually a..
There are also traditional tea houses/guesthouse around the area too
Some even offer traditional Hanbok for tourists to try on and take photos with. ^^
We had a stopped over at Samcheongdong Sujebi(삼청동 수제비) for lunch.
[click on photo to enter official site (KR only)]
Oh yes! Apparently this little rustic eatery place is MUST-TRY for tourists.
Even the locals love to patronize this eatery as well. (=
They only offers a few items in the store :
The famous Sujebi(수제비) 7,000won per portion
It does taste a little like our local mee-huay-kway I would say. But I do love the light taste of the soup.
This dish consists of: chunks of dough, vegetables, sliced pumpkin, clams, potatoes
(PLEASE SHARE..goodness, we order 3 portions and it can fit like 5-7pax?! =/)
Dongdongju (동동주, known as our Makgeolli as well)
And of course, no other than the home-made kimchi from the lady boss as well.
The hearty lunch boost up our energy to continue our journey around the area.
Wall Arts
Oh Hello Spur Shoes!
Pretty roses that never dies…
They are actually SOAP! 😀
We even took a photo with the Tourists Guides! If you need help in directions, do approach them! (They have maps available in English, Chinese and Japanese)
Time for some coffee break over at one of the cute cafe(Coffee Byul Zan)
Greeted with a cute rabbit on the floor.. ^^
They serves pretty yummy home-made Tiramisu as well! =D
왜!왜!왜! Even serviette also so cute!! =O
Our yummy waffles set that cost 13,000won
I shall end off the entry making you guys hungry by the waffles photo. 😛
Remember to add Samcheong-dong down into your itinerary the next time you're over at Anguk Station. It's just a pretty 5-10mins walk further down than Insadong and maybe, you might discover even more pretty things than I do. *wink*

Don't go by name. I've met good people there.
Vary conveniently situated in suburb of Hatfield, away from the city center, close to site of government and its offices, so it is not in want of the business.

The photos in this post were taken in the course of 2011 and previous year, and I think that they have a place in my `Tour of Pretoria` project. Therefore here I am, having a pint in order to make this post a genuine article, so to speak.

The Bee's Knees Barrel #1
Beast Masters Club Exclusive
Boone County Distilling 12 Year Straight Bourbon
Barrel #B5042 111.6 Proof
This incredible bourbon comes from Boone County Distilling. It's 12 Year MGP (Indiana) Straight Bourbon, unfiltered, at cask strength, right out of the barrel just how we like it!
What we look for in a bourbon is richness, sweetness, spice, and wood. And this barrel had all of those in spades! The first note is rich molasses, coating the nose in candy and cream. Then the baking spices come out, nutmeg and cinnamon, brown sugar and vanilla. Then on the palate we get the beautiful white oak, just perfectly in its prime from 12 years in the barrel, not overly tannic but boldly char-forward and doing a lovely job mellowing out the palate. For 111 proof this stuff is dangerously drinkable. The finish goes on forever and the sweets, spices, and wood all marry together at the end for a result that is exactly what an outstanding bourbon should be.

Finding an Algerian Travel Agent
Article Intro
A good and professional travel agency in Algeria can be instrumental in preparing and implementing a successful tour. Local agents have better understanding of the rules, rates and costs, and can come up with very good options.
The sights of
include a lot of places with the ruins of ancient cities of the Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Romans and Byzantines on the coast of the country.
The relief of Algeria is determined by
Sahara desert
area, occupying most of the territory, as well as mountain ranges in the north, and the sea coast with fertile land. You will certainly appreciate the time spent in an exciting desert safari, accompanied by the talkative guide. Let the desert be barren-looking, but its depth is rich in oil, gas and valuable species of ore. Oases will certainly please the eye as the brightest part of the landscape. Algerian beaches are very picturesque and will attract you to spend some time at the seaside. Tourist resorts and restaurants have a pretty nice infrastructure.
The historic sites of the country will entertain the tourists with a colorful variety. Be sure to visit
, the ruins of the once famous Roman town. There you will see the once bustling building with thermal baths, a theater, and a triumphal arch. Many buildings have been preserved in excellent condition despite such a venerable age. One will be thrilled by the ruins of an ancient Muslim city, which can be found in the northern part of the Algerian mountains. The national reserve of Algeria, Tassili-Ager, is also worth seeing. This is a plateau in the rocky gorges and caves, where more than 15,000 samples of ancient rock paintings and frescoes can be found.
The cuisine, which follows local traditions, will amaze you with its diversity. Particularly frequent are only fish dishes. Many fruits, vegetables and seafood in various combinations will broaden your outlook concerning the art of making food.
The capital of the country is the ancient city of
, which resembles an amphitheater on the hills near the bay. Most of the buildings are constructed from light-colored building material, which gives the city a unique appearance. Distinctive 'casbah' is found in the old part of the city with quaint narrow streets and one-storey houses with flat roofs, beautiful mosques and other oriental buildings. The most visited sights also include the Museum of Ancient History and Antiquity.
In the city of
, there is the Great Mosque and the Citadel. Algeria has thousands of kilometers of excellent beaches, rarely used at present.
The ruins of the ancient capital of
are located among the mountainous areas and are unbelievably beautiful. Kala-Beni Hammad is now a source of reliable information about the ancient fortified Muslim city.
Tassili-Ager is the territory, where one can see an impressive number of ancient artificial caves, which are decorated with more than 15,000 drawings and engravings.
The landscape of
Mzab valley
