Anyone else watch the Witches with Anjelica Huston? That scared the crap out me as a kid. I tried rewatching it last month and it was still scary as an adult.

Another company working on antibody treatments is Centivax - they had great results in treating hamsters but it’s a smaller company so won’t be available for human use until next year. They were featured in the Pandemic documentary on Netflix.

There's a great new band called Hanson and all the members are under 40!

Today's "luxury" condos are

Today's "luxury" condos are tomorrow's affordable condos. There's a process called filtering, by which even luxury unit supply will lower the costs of lesser condos. Only way it won't happen is if there is so much pent-up demand that too little supply doesn't make a dent.

Great post, Brian. Housing

Great post, Brian. Housing affordability is the crisis of our time, caused by onerous zoning restrictions and years of under-building. Props to your bold stance on a sports blog.

 

Only quibble is the dismissal of Vision Zero. We are so far away from "advanced technologies" eliminating traffic deaths, given the likely slow adaption by all motorists. We need traffic engineering and enforcement solutions now to remedy all the lives that are needlessly lost on our roadways.

Agreed. It's a chilling commentary on how little minimum wage buys you, how messed up metro Detroit's regional transportation is, how few good jobs there are in Detroit, etc. It's a miscrosm of so many sad problems that boggles my mind that someone would feel "picked up" by this article.

Can I trust that someone is

Can I trust that someone is constantly monitoring for Derrick Green being listed in the U of M directory?  Funny that Brian was just joking about this on WTKA this week.

I am friends with his brother

I am friends with his brother and was lucky enough to meet Teddy a few times.  It only took about 2 minutes with him to discover what a genuinely good person he was.  He fought his illness with such strength and bravery that it was an inspiration.  The Scott Family and the Michigan Community lost a great one and he will be missed.

I can't walk 2 city blocks in this town without seeing a Michigan shirt or a license plate with "Michigan Alumni" on it.  If half the people who came to B-Bill's for game watching showed up to the event it would be a massive success.

Why do Michigan's high-rated recruits drop more often than they rise when rankings are revised?

When I was in school, I knew

When I was in school, I knew someone who was big in the College Dems, and he helped plan a speech from Michael Moore.  Prior to the event, Moore had my friend buy him a Michigan hat at Steve and Barry's or something.  I'm sure he just wanted to pander to the crowd.

Right, I would think they would announce it if it were.  If Rich Rod knew he had no chance of getting him in, I think he would do whatever he could to help DD find another school (unless that school is in Columbus).  He seemed supportive of Witty when this was happening to him.
