IN CHINESE CRISIS MEANS OPPORTUNITY MEANS EDSALL
by Spencer Hall on Feb 8, 2012 4:59 PM EST

PrintThe Maryland Transfer Counter now stands at nine as tallied by Testudo Times, though that may be subject to revision now that quarterback Danny O'Brien insists he is still a Terp. Earlier rumors had the 2010 ACC Rookie of the Year O'Brien and starting left tackle Max Garcia leaving the Randy Edsall Dream Job Experience, a move that would only remove the two most important pieces on any offense from the Terps first-string lineup.
True or not, the transfer would not be the most surprising thing in the world. O'Brien's production faded as a sophomore under the sway of the Crowton Effect, and he missed the last two games of the season with a broken arm sustained against Notre Dame. Fightin' Mike Locksley is his third offensive coordinator in three years, and one whose Illinois attacks called for a fair amount of run plays for the quarterback. O'Brien can move, but he can't really run with any credible consistent threat, and that may be where the source of the rumors started in the first place.
Those are all somewhat logical guesses. So is this another, this time a guess at what Randy Edsall truly wants at quarterback.
Will never transfer. WIll never complain. Throws up to "600 punts or passes an hour," so it both understands hard work and what can happen when you don't just run the ball like an American should. Won't make trick shot videos. Won't complain when Mike Locksley kicks it to pieces for blowing a gear. Never tries to make something happen out of the pocket. Never audibles. Requires three wheels and one operator, but that's what running backs are for, no?Will never impregnate the daughter of an administrator at least we don't think so. There are some pretty determined ladies out there, though. "I love you Jugs Field General Football Machine. We'll make this work. We'll have beautiful little tripod children. WE WILL.")

cuts both ways. What self-respecting afalete could stand to be kitted out in an acid-head’s fantasy of the Maryland state flag?

A phonetic Chinese translation of "Edsall" might be 埃兹尔, which translates roughly as

Luke Harangody is really the only F/C that ND has had like that. Jack Cooley looks like ‘Gody, but he’s nowhere near as good. Prior to that, Notre Dame had more of the “stretch the floor” type centers like Troy Murphy and Luke Zeller.

I'd regularly stay up until 3 in college
Wake up for a 10 or 11 am class, come home by 3 or 4 and take a two hour nap.
I still get my afternoon/evening nap in most days.
It’s only 30-40 minutes, usually, but hey, not bad for a working stiff.

But I did note the final score
Never deny, rarely affirm, always distinguish
KU was up by a couple at the half.
Then proceeded to shut Baylor down for the first part of the 2nd half as they built a 20 point lead. I think Baylor had 12 points or so in the first 14 minutes of the 2nd half to KU’s 30ish.
For KU fans it was beautiful, for Baylor fans is was a mud fence game.

OK. Duke and UNC fans, if you want to know why everyone gets tired of the media slobbing on your knob, it's shit like this game
Tyler Zeller caught a pass, turned to shoot an unguarded layup, and had it goaltended before it had a chance to go in. That’s it. ESPN showed it on slow-mo replay twice, with Bilas and Vitale praising Zeller’s outstanding skill throughout.

“Sweet tea” means, well, sweet tea. It’s its own beverage. You put the sugar in while the water is still boiling before you even steep the tea bags so it mixes well.
“Sweetened tea” is what happens when someone attempts to poison a Southerner with “iced tea.” He desperately adds the nearest sweetening agent, but it never really blends well.
Some Southerners say “Unsweet tea” because tea is expected to be sweet where they’re from. In some parts of the South, your options aren’t "sweet tea or iced tea (or just “tea”)," they’re “tea or unsweet tea.” Actually it’s usually just “tea or [confused, vaguely suspicious look].”

"While you may not give a shit, @mlebowski313 is an unstoppable force of nature [at Words With Friends]" -T-Jax
He was only at ND for one year, so he was still viewed as an up-and-coming coach
Most people went off of him being the Kansas assistant than anything he did here.
Plus he played with Jordan. Picking an alum for a job over his head always works out well for schools, right?

Well, as an addendum to stempke's advice
Colleges like to see that you’re doing something, but don’t do something simply to have it on your resume. Better to find something you enjoy and explore that deeply (this can be a couple of things) than just doing whatever. Well-rounded is good, but “spiky” is better (if that makes any sense)

I actually disagree a bit there
Unless things have changed since I applied to college (2004). Colleges want what I call “brochure kids”: the kind of kid who may be shallow and stupid, BUT has an interesting-looking resume for 1 page.
Given a choice between a 4.0 kid who played 3 sports (but none well enough for college), knows Spanish, can play piano and guitar, and is very involved in very common extracurriculars, and a kid who is a 3.8 but is a world renown squash player who can interpret sanskrit and play classical guitar, they’ll take the latter.
They want a “hook” as our guidance counselor called it: something that sets you apart. It can be shallow as hell (the kid who joins every religious extracurricular to look like he’s interested in that sort of thing), but if you fake it they’ll eat it up.

When I was applying to college, the buzzword was "well-rounded person" (i.e. someone who had a variety of skills/interests).
Soon enough, they got enough well-rounded people. So the best advice is to find one thing that you really enjoy and can get really good at, and fill the rest of your time around it. (And to get good grades and test scores, of course; those still come first unless you’re really, really awesome at that one thing.)

I think it depends on how good the local Big State U is.
Michigan’s a damn good school and relatively inexpensive, so there weren’t really a whole lot of other places that I would have considered and were worth the money. I applied to two schools, showed up at Michigan’s new student day the day after I got rejected from the other school, and off I went.
But if you live in a state where the top public college isn’t as good, I imagine you want to look at more schools.

Second semester senior year: 9 credits of Spanish classes plus 4 credits of “independent study” for a thesis I had already basically finished? Yeah, that sounds like a nice victory lap.
Not quite the Matt Leinart victory lap semester, but it was good enough.

Was community choir an every-semester thing?

We had to have 2 semesters of fine art...
I took Basic Musicianship (aka “Clapping for Credit”), and was in Intro Music Theory, but found out I was borderline tone deaf, which made identifying pieces very difficult.
Community Choir counted as a half-semester class- it was “show up reasonably sober on Wednesday nights” – so I took it both semesters senior year, to fill the requirement.

Michigan counts IB HL credits for distribution requirements, but not AP credits.
Of course, most of the advisors don’t actually know what an “IB” is, so I didn’t know this until after I took physics and got my ass kicked; otherwise I could have used my score from HL chemistry and saved myself the trouble.
Also, IB SL classes get you nothing, which is bullshit – it’s not like Math Methods is easier than Calc AB.

Really?
I don’t think there was a single thing that we did in Honors Calc I that we didn’t do in high school. And Michigan does the calculus sequence in three classes, whereas some schools do it in four.

No derivatives of inverse trig functions,
no partial fractions, no integration by parts in Hons. Calc 1 at UM? Or you had a badass teacher in HS who taught you all those despite them not being on the IB test?
And I’d only ever heard 4 classes for calculus at schools that did quarters…

Columbia is on semesters and has four calculus classes.
I think we learned inverse trig functions in high school, and the more clever integration techniques weren’t until Calc II.

Well, that'd do it then.

Hmm. Maybe they removed them in the switch from "Methods" to "Math SL"? That is kind of bizarre.
And whatever I say about SL math gets doubled for sciences, economics, languages, and history; SL and HL students were taught together in all those classes, so everyone learned the same things, they just weren’t all tested on everything.

Three math tracks at Michigan
115-116-215-216
Regular Calc I-II-III-IV(IV=Diff Eq)
185-186-285-286
Honors Calc I-II-III-IV=Diff Eq
I: deriviatives up to FTC, with a lot of theory
II: integration and its tricks with a crapton more of theory
III: 3-dimensional, gradients, up to Stokes’ Theorem with the theory
IV: some unholy amalgamation of Ordinary Diff EQ, linear algebra, and theory
295-296-395-396: Nominally the hard honors sequence, but really combining calculus with real and complex analysis to where you’ve pretty much done most of undergrad math in 2 years
A large number of my friends took 295.
Perhaps one or two of them finished 396.
(Many of them decided “screw it, I got into business school, I’m out of here” after 296.)

A few places actually call it "Calc 4".
Main reason I consider it part of the sequence, though, is that it’s the upper end of what’s required for engineering – if you’re taking anything above that, you’re probably a math major.

i am hoping that second semester senior year i can take more ls&a credits than engineering credits
senior design, maybe one more elective in engineering, then stuff like aliens, dinosaurs, etc.
the only thing is i might actually stay for a 5th year masters, depending on how i feel my job situation is looking. i really don’t want to stay (nothing against ann arbor or umich, but i’m seriously getting really burnt out) but if i do i’ll probably have to take less fun classes. sigh.

ideal situation is that i work there, love it, they love me, they give me an offer. boom. i’m really excited for it, i know a girl who worked there last year and said the company is GREAT to work for, treated interns well, etc.

I routinely had four technical classes a semester.
The one I remember for sure was fall sophomore year (mostly because I had a block of four classes in a row Monday and Wednesday starting at 8:00):
ECE 302/303 (Electronic Circuits + lab)
PHY 294H (Honors Physics 2)
ECE 230 (Digital Logic)
ME 201 (Thermodynamics)
Some philosophy class
I think spring junior year was even worse. Among the classes were HST 414 (World War II), ECE 410 (VLSI), ECE 320 (Power Systems); I don’t remember what the other two were offhand, but I think they were ECE 416 (Digital Control) and ECE 474 (Semiconductor Physics). And I was grading for ECE 313 (Control Systems) that semester too.

Maybe I’m missing something here, but I think it figures prominently into the admissions considerations of many social science and humanities programs.
Well, that could be.
Many of my colleagues took the GRE their first semester of grad school, as it was technically required for admission.
Guess how many shits were given about the scores.
not that i'm looking into grad school but i've heard for engineering/sciences it's really about any research you've done in undergrad

If they get to 8-10 in conference and don't lose their opener in the conference tourney, there's a chance.
They might need to get to either 9-9 or pull a quarterfinal upset, depending on how things play out elsewhere, but their non-conference is fairly respectable, they’ve got some good quality wins, and no terrible losses.

not gonna lie
was extremely glad to see they got together and put out the new album. And it sounds much like their old stuff, too!
Wait what? No.
I’m sorry, but the Cars without Benjamin Orr is like non-alcoholic beer.

understood
I forgot to put a Ben Orr (RIP) disclaimer in there, but I mean as far as the overall production feel
I saw them
when they first did that thing with Todd Rundgren, and I mean no disrespect at all to Rundgren, who’s awesome, but it was horrible. Absolutely horrible.
Although it wasn’t even remotely as awful as the show I saw on the Door to Door tour, which was compounded by the fact that I really, really REALLY FUCKING WANTED TO SEE ICEHOUSE TOO, but they threw Icehouse off the tour TWO DAYS BEFORE THEY GOT TO ME because… well, Icehouse was blowing them off the fucking stage.

And yeah, most of the stuff from his first two CDs was equal parts incredibly creative and incredibly misogynist/homophobic/generally twisted.

i’m pretty sure he also is the legal guardian/parent of some other kids…could’ve been one of them, too.

So this is where I come in with the one about my friend's ex-boyfriend who tended bar at Kim's bar of choice, right?
And to his credit, even if he likes to say really outlandish things, one thing that always comes through his music is that he’s extremely caring for and protective of his daughter – probably related to how he frequently talks about how terrible his own parents were.

“Detroit” is easier to explain to out-of-towners. But yes, I was just a little bit north, if you want to be technical.

It's one thing if you're in NYC or Chicago - then saying "I'm from Detroit" is relatively appropriate.
But if you’re at U of M – less than a half hour from the actual city of Detroit – you should probably break out which suburb you actually lived in when you’re introducing yourself to people you meet on campus.
When out of town I usually say “the Detroit area”.
