I like a good salad bar. Some of my favorites:
Jason's Deli
Plantation at Sunny Brook - in Roanoke
Chop House (chicken tender salad)
Not sure if it's applicable, but the FAA just really loosened the strings on regulating and authorization for agriculture. I'm trying to get one to spray my soybean crop and before theadt month or so, I would've had to take a pilots licensing course and gotten my amateur or whatever license. Now, just buy it and report to the FAA you own it with registration info and you're good to go. But again, I only read the changes as apply to ag applications, so it could be different for research which is what this sounds like
This is pretty cool - have never seen anything like this. I zoomed in to Allisons M, row 49, where my crew was. I found my buddy, but the picture makes it look like he's standing there alone. I'm pretty sure he was never standing there alone without all of us with him. Also, people that were right by us are strangely shown 10-15 people away in this picture.
I'm guessing something went screwy with the panorama - as it was panning or whatever.
Still pretty cool technology.

# | From Justin Fuente to the Water Boys, Tech's Staff Takes Aim at Improving Ball Security Btw, for those interested he's doing pretty well so far this year at UMd- 14 rushes for 126yds and 1 TD (avg of 9.0ypc). He also recovered a blocked a FG for a TD. Not bad for limited carries (blowout and being a co-starter)
I still think Marshawn is going to be a nice addition to the offense this season and give us a trusty power back that can still break loose a little. Trey def wouldn't get the touches at VT that he will for the Terps so good move for his final year
This is the only Marz beer I've had, but it's tasty. I'm sure you've tried some, but 3 Floyds is unreal. My girlfriend spent some time in Cleveland last spring and picked up a bunch for me. Their hoppy beers are all unique and excellent.
I was in Brussels a couple months ago and got to tour Cantillon and 3F. Really unique facilities with their cool ships and it's incredible the differences between a 1 year and a 2 year lambic. Sadly, I could only bring back so much. And there were other beers to bring back besides sours! I still have some de Struise as well.

# | After Still More Struggles Limiting a Mobile QB, Justin Fuente Warns of Patrick Towles' Talents Yet, we read references often on this site to the "Terror Dome". It's embarrassing, really. That nickname should be banned until the program has earned it back.
nice, i plan on hitting marz when i go to the ND game, along with half acre, 18th street and 3 floyds (locks).
my boy just came back from belgium, dear god the 3f and Cantillon he brought back was stupid. i hope he shares. lol.

Beer: I'll either be enjoying the Jungle Boogie by Marz Brewing, a hoppy wheat ale made with Roobios tea, or I'll have Drie Fonteinen's Cuvee de Armand, a special release from the lambic brewer. Or I'll drink both because why not?
Jungle Boogie:
Cuvee de Armand:
Louisville- Lamar Jackson is the 44th best offense in FBS. As an individual.
Bama- Ole Miss lost the key cogs on defense, and this team hung 50 on USC
Oregon- I trust neither of these schools, but I trust Nebraska less
TAMU- If Clemson can win at Auburn, A&M certainly can
Sparty- manball>smugness
Ohio State- insert joke about Oklahoma I've made a million times here

They look confident. Translate that into focus.

# | After Still More Struggles Limiting a Mobile QB, Justin Fuente Warns of Patrick Towles' Talents Lefty eschewed slants with LT and Brewer. I'd be surprised if that changed.
If I were Foster, I'd give Loeffler looks that tempt him to beat VT with what BC does worst. Loeffler's biggest flaw IMO was that he tried to win the chess game rather than define the things his offense does best and play to its strength - regardless of the "looks" the opposing DC showed him.

# | After Still More Struggles Limiting a Mobile QB, Justin Fuente Warns of Patrick Towles' Talents It's not just us.
This is from an Oklahoma football blog:
"There are no secrets to stopping a mobile quarterback"
NORMAN — The question is asked so often the answer is as predictable as a sunrise. Why does Oklahoma struggle against mobile quarterbacks? Players or coaches reply with something that boils down to following assignments or playing with good technique. It's a back and forth that yields little meaningful insight.
There isn't a scheme that works well against athletic quarterbacks. What works is defenders who are better athletes than the guy they have to tackle.
Last season's losses — Texas and Clemson — followed identical paths. The opposing quarterback rushed for more than 100 yards. In both games, designed runs didn't inflict the crippling damage. It was the third-down scrambles that turned the tide.
The breakdown on those plays usually has nothing to do with scheme. Missed tackles are the issue. Good athletes can make quality athletes look bad.
You quickly find out how athletic your defensive linemen and linebackers are when they have to make open-field tackles against quarterbacks like these.
EDIT:
So, looking at the stats from brockman_148's post just above, maybe the difference is the athletes that we had prior to 2013.

# | After Still More Struggles Limiting a Mobile QB, Justin Fuente Warns of Patrick Towles' Talents I didn't realize how close those losses have been. 8 of the 10 losses by 1 score or less...and 6 of the 10 losses by a FG or less.
Fished there with the family for the first time last week. All I can say is 'wow, what a beautiful place'. We caught loads little smallies, but with my kids it was perfect and exactly what we were hoping for. Even caught them on our own homemade soft plastics, which made it even more fun for us all.

# | After Still More Struggles Limiting a Mobile QB, Justin Fuente Warns of Patrick Towles' Talents This chart breaks down more of our success vs. running QB woes.
The top chart is wins and losses, with QB > 100 yard rushing games bolded.
The bottom chart is shaded arbitrarily based on our relatively best (Green), average (Orange) and worst (Red) seasons.
In 2012, we gave up 2 yards to quarterbacks for the entire season and went 7-6.
That is exactly how I dunk... my donuts.
