Lewin Career Forecast 2012
by Aaron Schatz
Six years ago, Football Outsiders unveiled the college quarterback projection system known as the Lewin Career Forecast. Originally, the LCF projected the success of first- and second-round quarterbacks using just college games started and college completion percentage. Going back -- including when looking at quarterbacks from the years before the data set used to create it -- it had a strong record. After 2006, the record was not so strong. So last year, we debuted an updated version of the forecast, LCF v2.0.
The new version of the Lewin Career Forecast is built to apply only to quarterbacks chosen in the first three rounds of the draft. After that, quarterback success and failure becomes too difficult to predict. Part of the concept of the system is that scouts will do a good enough job identifying "system quarterbacks" so that those quarterbacks whose college stats are much better than their pro potential will naturally fall to the third day of the draft.
There are seven variables involved in LCF v2.0:
Career college games started, with a minimum of 20 and a maximum of 48.
Career completion rate; however, this is now a logrithmic variable. As a quarterback's completion percentage goes down, the penalty for low completion percentage gets gradually larger. As a result, the bonus for exceedingly accurate quarterbacks such as Tim Couch and Brian Brohm is smaller than the penalty for inaccurate quarterbacks such as Kyle Boller and Tarvaris Jackson.
Difference between the quarterback's BMI and 28.0. This creates a small penalty for quarterbacks who don't exactly conform to the "ideal quarterback size."
For quarterbacks who come out as seniors, the difference in NCAA passer rating between their junior and senior seasons. (For quarterbacks who come out as juniors or redshirt sophomores, this variable is always 5.0, which is the average increase for the seniors in our data set.)
A binary variable that penalizes quarterbacks who don't play for a team in a BCS-qualifying conference.
Run-pass ratio in the quarterback's final college season, with a maximum of 0.5.
Total rushing yards in the quarterback's final college season, with a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 600.
These last two variables work together to penalize both quarterbacks who scramble too often and quarterbacks who take a lot of sacks (since sacks are negative runs in college), while pocket quarterbacks who are successful when they do run get a bonus.
The biggest question about LCF continues to be the importance of games started. This is still the most important variable in the equation. As I explained in last year's article, any quarterback projection system based on past performance is going to highly value collegiate games started. From 1990 to 2005, it was far and away the most important variable in determining the success of highly-drafted quarterbacks. However, there are questions about whether the rise of the spread offense is leading to number of quarterbacks who come into the NFL with a lot of collegiate experience yet still unprepared for the NFL-style game. Other quarterbacks have come into the NFL with less experience and done very well. The best example of this would be Cam Newton, who seems like the kind of guy who is built to break this system. He started only one year of Division I ball and looked like a huge risk, then put together one of the best rookie quarterback seasons in NFL history. Aaron Rodgers is another player who was underrated by the system; given the success of Newton and Rodgers, perhaps we need to consider adding junior college experience to the variable for collegiate games started.
Newton demonstrates where the system can go wrong, while Andy Dalton demonstrates where the system can go right. Dalton was the highest-rated prospect in last year's draft according to LCF and while his numbers (and his potential) don't match Newton's, his rookie performance surprised a number of observers who felt his arm wasn't strong enough to be a good NFL starting quarterback.
It's important to understand that LCF is meant to be a tool used alongside the scouting reports, not instead of the scouting reports. What matters is not which quarterback is ahead of which other quarterback by 100 points. Instead, what's important is who has an overall good or bad projection. Scouts still come first and foremost, but this method is valuable as a crosscheck device and should be part of the conversation about quarterback draft prospects.
With that in mind, let's look at the projections for this year's quarterbacks. These numbers represent an estimate for passing DYAR in years 3-5 of a player's career. The top prospects will be above 1,200 DYAR, and you should avoid quarterbacks below zero. Let's start with the top two guys, two of the highest-rated quarterbacks in LCF history who will also be the first two picks in the 2012 NFL Draft.
Robert Griffin, Baylor: 2,530 DYAR
Important stats: 40 games started, 67.0% completion rate, senior passer rating rose 45.3 points, 161 carries for 644 yards.
Andrew Luck, Stanford: 1,749 DYAR
Important stats: 37 games started, 66.4% completion rate, senior passer rating dropped -0.5 points, 47 carries for 150 yards.
Robert Griffin comes out with the strongest LCF projection of any quarterback we've measured. Here are the top ten quarterbacks by LCF projection since 1998:
Player Year LCF
Robert Griffin 2012 2530
Philip Rivers 2004 2476
Drew Brees 2001 2190
Colt McCoy 2010 2092
Carson Palmer 2003 1973
Peyton Manning 1998 1784
Andrew Luck 2012 1749
Chad Pennington 2000 1678
Brady Quinn 2007 1518
Jason Campbell 2005 1506
Griffin and Luck are basically LCF's dream candidates. They're both longtime starters with tons of college experience. Both have strong completion rates. Both get good yardage when scrambling. The biggest difference between the two according to LCF is what happened in their senior year. Luck, who was stellar as a junior, saw his passer rating stay constant. Griffin, on the other hand, improved significantly. The 45.3-point rise in his passer rating as a senior is largest senior improvement in our database (surpassing Jason Campbell, who rose 40.3 points) and the second-largest senior change in our database (behind only Rex Grossman, whose passer rating as a senior dropped 49.3 points). Statistically, Griffin's senior year was better than Luck's, his junior year not as good. This could indicate that Griffin is still improving, still learning, and still getting better, with more room to grow in the pros. Of course, it also could indicate that Griffin's 2011 season was a little fluky, and one of the arguments I've read against Griffin as a can't-miss prospect is that most scouts didn't have him as a first-round pick before his senior season. With all due respect to those scouts, it was pretty obvious within the first two or three games of the year that they were wrong. And even if Griffin's passer rating as a senior had stayed the same as his passer rating as a junior, Griffin would still have this year's highest LCF projection at 1,994.
Again, this little statistical exercise is not definitive proof that the Colts should draft Griffin over Luck. What's important here is that both quarterbacks come out as top prospects, and unlike with Colt McCoy, the scouting reports match the statistical projection.
One last note: The argument against "Luck and Griffin are about as close to can't miss as quarterback prospects can be" is not "well, people said the same thing about Peyton Manning and Ryan Leaf." We know more now than we did then. Leaf started only 24 games and completed just 55.4 percent of his passes in college. His LCF projection is at -407. If Football Outsiders had been around in 1998, we would have been arguing that Peyton Manning and Ryan Leaf weren't even in the same universe as prospects.
Nick Foles, Arizona: 1,391 DYAR
Important stats: 33 games started, 66.9% completion rate, 43 carries for -103 yards.
Foles is this year's version of Ricky Stanzi, a guy whose strong LCF forecast will probably end up moot because scouts will determine that he's not worth of a pick in the first three rounds. His film from 2011 has apparently dropped him on a lot of draft boards, and he had a poor combine performance. Greg Cosell calls him a "major projection" based on slow arm speed and an inability to drive intermediate-lenth passes. He also has an elongated delivery. I'm not a scouting expert by any means, and I haven't seen Foles play, but the scouting reports on Foles remind me a lot of the scouting reports on Andy Dalton, except that Dalton didn't have a problem with a slow delivery.
Kirk Cousins, Michigan State: 1,362 DYAR
Important stats: 38 games started, 64.6% completion rate.
One interesting note about Cousins is his fluctuating size. He's 6-foot-3 and weighed in at the combine at 214 pounds, which leads to a 26.7 BMI. That's lower than usual for quarterbacks, but not extremely low. However, he played the 2011 season at 202 pounds and 25.2 BMI. The data set used to create LCF v2.0 doesn't have a single quarterback listed below 205 pounds or 25.8 BMI. The team drafting Cousins needs to make sure he keeps up an intensive strength program so he's sturdy enough to take the hits he's going to take in the NFL. The ESPN Scouts Inc. profile of Cousins (note: Insider) lists him with "below average" durability.
Brandon Weeden, Oklahoma State: 1,011 DYAR
Important stats: 25 games started, 69.5% completion rate, 26.8 BMI
Ryan Tannehill, Texas A&M: 730 DYAR
Important stats: 19 games started, 62.3% completion rate, 55 carries for 296 yards.
Given the way they are discussed, you would never know that Ryan Tannehill had almost as many college starts as Brandon Weeden. Sure, Tannehill spent his first two years as a wide receiver before spending a year and a half as the Aggies' starting quarterback. But Weeden spent all those years as a baseball player, then was redshirted, and ended up only starting two full seasons. So while Tannehill may be a more raw talent than Weeden, and he wasn't as accurate as Weeden in college, he has far more potential. The LCF doesn't know that Weeden will turn 29 in the middle of his rookie season. When John Beck came into the league as an overaged prospect, he had 12 more games of starting experience than Weeden has and was three years younger.
Brock Osweiler, Arizona State: 248 DYAR
The LCF likes this year's quarterback prospects, with one exception: Brock Osweiler. Osweiler is built for LCF to hate. He has a low completion rate and only started one season in college (along with a single game in each of his first two seasons) before coming out for the draft early. LCF doesn't ding him for this, but there also need to be concerns about his height. He was listed at 6-foot-8 during the season, although he measured 6-foot-7 at the combine. Either way, he's taller than any quarterback in the LCF data set. The FO master database lists only two quarterbacks since 1992 who were at least 6-foot-7: Ryan Mallett and Dan McGwire. Dan McGwire also had very few games started (23) and a low completion rate (59.1 percent). You don't want to be compared to Dan McGwire.
The Asterisk
Russell Wilson, Wisconsin: 2,650 DYAR
Important stats: 48 games started, 60.7% completion rate, senior passer rating rose 64.1 points.
I would be remiss if I didn't at least mention the ridiculous projection that the Lewin Career Forecast spits out for Russell Wilson. Yes, that projection is even higher than the one for Robert Griffin. No, it doesn't particularly mean that Wilson is a sleeper prospect. There are a few things going on here that the LCF is just not designed to account for.
First and foremost, the change in Wilson's passer rating between his junior and senior years is insane. Remember that earlier I noted that Griffin had a larger senior year passer rating increase than any quarterback in our data set? Well, Wilson's senior year passer rating increase is 40 percent larger than Griffin's. But does it matter when the quarterback is playing in a completely different offense for a completely different school in his last year of college eligibility? At Wisconsin, Wilson got to pick apart defenses that were concentrating on stopping Montee Ball. At North Carolina State, I doubt opponents were quaking in their boots at the thought of Mustafa Greene and Dean Haynes. It goes without saying that there isn't another quarterback in the LCF data set who transferred between his junior and senior years.
There's also the issue of height, another data point where there's nobody in our data set that can be compared to Wilson. At first, it seems strange that LCF doesn't include a variable to discount short quarterbacks, but when you look at the data set that went into creating LCF the reasons are pretty clear. There's no penalty for being 5-foot-11, like Wilson is, because there are no quarterbacks in the data set who are shorter than 6-foot-0. There's no penalty for being only 6-foot-0 because the two quarterbacks who are 6-foot-0 are Drew Brees and Michael Vick.
Quarterbacks who are Wilson's height simply don't get drafted in the first three rounds of the draft, period. The FO master database only includes three quarterbacks who are below six feet tall: Seneca Wallace, Joe Hamilton, and Flutie. That's a fourth-round pick, a seventh-round pick, and an 11th round pick from 25 years ago. Even if we go all the way back to 1991, the only quarterbacks taken in the first six rounds at 6-foot-0 or shorter were Vick, Brees, Wallace, Joe Germaine (fourth round, 1999), and Troy Smith (fifth round, 2007).
Wilson too will probably be drafted on the third day of the draft, round four or later, which would render his absurdly high LCF moot.

In the article, it is mentioned that RG3 would still be this year's "top prospect" even if he had not improved his passer rating. However, if we adjust his senior year for the incremental increases from his freshman-to-sophomore and his sophomore-to-junior years, what does he look like?
If he had a solid first three years and an outstanding final year, either he really did some learning and received some hard coaching, his competition decreased in difficulty, or it was a fluke.
Comparing his meteoric rise to Jason Campbell does little to instill confidence that he is going to be elite.

Especially for us Skins fans. However I do find this high LCF2.0 number comforting.

Griffin entered Baylor a runner who could throw and ended up a passer who could run.
Campbell is a bit of a sad story. For something like 9 consecutive seasons he found himself with a new offensive coordinator and a totally new offensive system. That he managed to be a decent QB in spite of this suggests he's actually fairly talented, and has gotten a severely raw deal in his QB career.
In reply to Re: Lewin Career Forecast 2012 by Aaron Brooks G…
While I am not denigrating Jason Campbell to the point of calling him the new J. Russell, I am also not putting him in the clouds near Manning or Brady. If RG3 is at Jason Campbell's talent level, that is certainly good for the NFL; however, it is not worth the price paid to acquire the pick that will be used to draft him, especially considering that the pick is 2nd overall.

He's definitely not Peyton, but it's not THAT hard to imagine him being Eli. And that's pretty good.
by dan s (not verified) // Mar 12, 2012 - 10:07pm
This is a great point...if you're worried about flukiness, there's a couple things you could do. This suggestion makes sense to me--weigh down the senior year more if the first two/three years are very consistent and much lower. Or, why not make this a logarithmic variable, too? I assume you guys messed around with the functional form of this stuff--did it make a difference here?

You should also remember that Griffin was a starting QB in the Big 12 as an 18 year old true freshman. You should expect massive improvement as he grows and learns.
by Rocco // Mar 14, 2012 - 2:07pm
In reply to Re: Lewin Career Forecast 2012 by Mountain Time …
Not only was he an 18 year old starting QB, he was playing for a team with less talent around him than the main conference rivals. It's similar to what Eli did at Ole Miss against SEC teams with far more NFL draft picks.
In reply to Re: Lewin Career Forecast 2012 by Rocco
Or Cutler at Vanderbilt.
So we're dinging Wilson's projection because he played for a year with Montee Ball, but not knocking Andrew Luck for spending a season with Toby Gerhart? Or that Stanford and Wisconsin were nearly identical last year in terms of roster construction, offensive style (Stanford ran just as much and for as many yards as Wisconsin), and similar inability to beat Oregon.
So other than Russell Wilson being short, what's wrong with him? The Brees comparison is more apt than you'd think -- he looks a lot like Brees did at Purdue.
If you want to discount the transfer factor, what is his projection if you assumed a 4th year at NC State with a 5% senior bump? I think you're looking at decent prospect who turns the ball over too often, but those NC State teams were usually massively out-talented and he spent much of his first three years running for his life. Given a talent O-line, he revealed himself to be a very accurate, very ball-conscious QB.
by Karl Cuba // Mar 12, 2012 - 4:07pm
There really is quite a lot to like about Wilson. His tape looks spookily like Griffin's. It depends on whether or not you agree with the world's female population that those extra couple of inches really matter.

With QBs size def. does matter especially if you're under 5'11" and remember he went from the ACC to the Big Ten win 3 monster RBs in the backfield and one of the biggest and experienced Olines in the country all he had to do was a PA to Ball and 2 or 3 receivers were wide open everytime. Also(I live in NE Iowa so I hear a lot about UW) Brent Bielema and the offensive coaches had to spread the oline out because Wilson was so short he couldn't throw accurately over the Oline. He also led the country in batted balls for a QB. I could see him as a backup in a west coast boot leg type offense like Shannahans or Kubieks but other than that nothing. However he's a great kid and I would love to see him be successful and make me eat my own words.
In reply to Re: Lewin Career Forecast 2012 by TimLaw420 (not verified)
Name this QB:
Positives... Touch passer with the ability to read and diagnose defensive coverages...Confident leader who knows how to take command in the huddle...Very tough and mobile moving around in the pocket...Has a quick setup and is very effective throwing on the move...Throws across his body with great consistency...Hits receivers in stride and improvises his throws in order to make a completion...Puts good zip behind the short and mid-range passes...Shows good judgement and keen field vision...Has a take-charge attitude and is very cool under pressure...Hits receivers in motion with impressive velocity...Has superb pocket presence and uses all of his offensive weapons in order to move the chains...Has solid body mechanics and quickness moving away from center... Elusive scrambler with the body control to avoid the rush.
Negatives... Plays in the spread offense, taking the bulk of his snaps from the shotgun... Tends to side-arm his passes going deep...Lacks accuracy and touch on his long throws... Seems more comfortable in the short/intermediate passing attack...Does not possess the ideal height you look for in a pro passer, though his ability to scan the field helps him compensate in this area...Will improvise and run when the passing lanes are clogged, but tends to run through defenders rather than trying to avoid them to prevent unnecessary punishment.

I was going to guess Drew Brees, but I don't recall him running into defenders often.

You'd be right. Do a search for the text and Brees comes up.

I didn't watch him his first two years, but I would guess that he struggled finding passing lanes being only 6' tall. Which might have looked like poor pocket presence.

From what I can remember as a fan of a division rival, no. I remember thinking of it as a strong point.
His Sack%+ in '02 was 114 and in '03 was 106, so, for what it's worth, he didn't actually get sacked much.

"Prone to heaving the ball the wrong direction" was not listed as a negative, so no, it's not Aaron Brooks.

It's Brees - see above.
by Lebo // Apr 02, 2012 - 6:24pm
Wow. Brees tended "to run through defenders rather than trying to avoid them"? That is surprising. Thanks for clearing that up, Shushy.

I'd really like to see where you're getting the stats on batted balls. In fact, I'm going to come right out and say it - you are making that up. I didn't miss a snap Wilson played last season and I recall very few balls batted down at the LOS. And it's not something I wasn't watching for - it was a something talked about and on many fans minds from the beginning. Three balls batted down is what I remember - that's what Wilson has said in interviews and I've seen scouts tweet use that same number after watching his films.
I'm curious who these "monster" RBs you think were in the backfield as well. Ball was 5'11", 210. His backup was James White who was 5'10" 195. Behind them were Gordon & Lewis both a little taller, but leaner yet at 6'1" 200 & 6'2" 210. I guess if you count the Bradie Ewing at fullback, he was a fairly big guy 6'0" 245. John Clay is long gone & the 2011-2013 crews may run hard but they're no bigger than what anyone else
Also - "Brent" Bielema did not mess with the blocking gaps. Phillip Rivers who's 6'5" has said that even at his height, he saying he throws over the lineman's heads is not really accurate - that stepping into & using passing lanes is part of playing the position. Certainly they moved the pocket around a lot both by design and on the fly and that won't be an option in the NFL to the same degree it was in college.

In reply to Re: Lewin Career Forecast 2012 by Locke (not verified)
I think by "monster" he meant "very good", not "very large". And Rivers has a noticeably low action, so he may not be a great example to use. But I agree with the substance of your point: good throwing lanes are important to everyone, and it's hard to see why 5'11 should be so very much more of a problem than 6'.
And after all, if you drafted Flutie in the fourth round, you'd be pretty happy, right?

Do I get a lifetime supply of Flutie Flakes in the deal?

Read that. Not only did DARUSS Wilson not "lead the nation" in batted balls as the poster you are referencing fabricated, he was tied with Andrew "Second coming of Montana" Luck with 2 the ENTIRE SEASON. That is a wonderful number, especially considering the made up Iowa-homer jiber-jaber about Wilson not seeing over the line well enough.
by Erik Sklover (not verified) // May 16, 2012 - 10:40pm
Wilson only had four passes batted down all season his senior year. Playing behind the largest o-line in the country. It is bad to tell lies, you should apologize.

by Displaced Bolthead (not verified) // Mar 12, 2012 - 4:25pm
In all fairness to Luck, the Stanford receivers are sloooooow. He literally had to throw his receivers open. From what little I saw of Wilson, he threw to the open receiver. That's a big difference.
As for the transfer factor and Cam Newton, I'd say Newton is an anomaly. For a guy coming out of a spread offense in college, he played like he had a ball and chain on him in the pros. Granted, he did run, but only when everything broke down or when it was a designed play.

Luck did have Owusu, who is crazy fast, but also crazy injured. It might be worth a look to see his numbers with and without Owusu.

That would have been cool if Owusu played in the Fiesta Bowl. Would have loved to see Luck throw deep bombs to Owusu and hear Phil Simms say something stupider about his lack of arm strength.
by Hawkeye (not verified) // May 01, 2012 - 7:51pm
I suppose you didnt see Luck's African-named wide-out (whos actual name escapes me) run a sub 4.4 at the combine. Last I checked, that means youre fast. really fast.
by justanothersteve // Mar 12, 2012 - 4:34pm
IMO, Andy Reid should grab Wilson in the fourth round. He's already a Vick clone in that he's only slightly shorter and slower, but he's also not a d-bg and is smart enough to learn the entire Wisconsin playbook before the season even started. Then when Vick gets hurt (and we all know he will), Reid could plug in Wilson and not change the offense.
by chemical burn // Mar 12, 2012 - 6:27pm
In reply to Re: Lewin Career Forecast 2012 by justanothersteve
I was thinking the exact same thing, especially since Reid has such a strong history of coaching up QB's - he's the guy I want taking an iffy prospect. Interestingly, I think that list of all-time LCF prospects proves if you are a QB, you do not want to go to Cleveland under any circumstances. I also have a feeling, the Washington culture might work to minimize the talents of whoever QB's there, be it Campbell or the new guy...
Also, how much is Leaf/Manning getting thrown around as a comparison (sorry haven't been following the off-season too closely)? Leading up to their draft, both were seen as surefire prospects 1A & 1B and it just seems like a repeat of that scenario is more likely than two legends going 1 & 2 overall...

The comments on Russell Wilson are Knocking him for transferring to a new school, and that defenses were merely focusing on montee ball. where do you factor in a quarterback coming into a brand new offense, taking the starting job, mastering the playbook, and on top of that, his qb rating dramatically increasing in his first year of a brand new system?

Russell Wilson is going to be a steal this draft ! He is gonna be a beast, he is one of the most hard working , humble guys there is. I don't necessarily see him being a drew brees but a good accurate consistent guy like a Matt Ryan kinda guy. He played behind one of the largest offensive lines in the country and set a NCAA record for a passer rating of 191.8 and out did everybody. I think that shows how much effect his height has on his game. No I understand that NFL defensives are much quicker, but I am not saying he is going to be Aaron Rodgers , Drew Brees or Brady just saying he will be better than average. Go Russell Wilson !!

Hey now - Luck did actually beat Oregon once. Sure, the other two times they lost by 20+ points, but that first time was pretty sweet. Well, aside from the fact that Gerhart was the real hero.
Hmm. Never mind.

'These maps are bogus': U.S. lawmakers tear into telecom execs over spotty rural coverage
T-Mobile CEO John Legere and Sprint CEO Marcelo Claure, left, testify during a House Commerce subcommittee hearing on Capitol Hill in Washington on Feb. 13. (Jose Luis Magana/AP)
Members of Congress are fed up with the state of cellphone coverage in the United States, and on Wednesday, they weren't afraid to lodge their complaints personally — with the leaders of some of the country's biggest wireless networks.
As Sprint and T-Mobile went to Capitol Hill to defend their $26 billion proposed merger, lawmakers buttonholed T-Mobile's chief executive, John Legere, and Sprint's executive chairman, Marcelo Claure, on the frustrating inability to get a cell signal in many parts of the country, particularly in rural areas.
Waving a coverage map of his state in the middle of a congressional hearing, Rep. Peter Welch (D-Vt.) said that despite flashy promises to build a dazzling 5G network, wireless carriers can scarcely manage to serve Vermont with regular 4G LTE.
"In a lot of Vermont, we have no-G," said Welch. "These maps are bogus."
When Claure tried to shift the blame to AT&T and Verizon, saying Sprint's network often relies on those companies' infrastructure in many areas, Welch interrupted.
"These are no good! These are phony maps!" he bellowed.
Welch wasn't alone in taking the carriers to task. Rep. Tom O'Halleran (D-Ariz.) complained that when he returns home to his district, "Half the time that map says I should be covered. Half the time I'm not, by anybody."
And minutes earlier, Rep. Ben Ray Luján (D) quipped that he often gets better Internet service on airplanes as he's flying over his home state of New Mexico than he does while on the ground there.
"I don't understand that," he said.
The lawmakers' pique follows a study last year in which a Vermont Department of Public Service employee crisscrossed the state in a car outfitted with mobile networking equipment to test the strength of each carrier's service — and their marketing. The car couldn't reach every part of the state because of its mountainous terrain, but even in more-accessible areas, the study found that actual service frequently failed to live up to the coverage maps.
T-Mobile and Sprint vowed that if their merger is approved by regulators, coverage in rural areas will improve as the combined company invests more in those areas.
But Carri Bennet, a witness at the hearing who is an attorney for rural carriers, said the bigger players "have had more than 20 years to build out to rural America" and questioned whether to reward the companies with the merger.
The accuracy of the country's broadband maps has come under mounting scrutiny as more Americans come to view Internet access as an essential tool.
On Wednesday, the Commerce Department launched an initiative aimed at improving broadband mapping by drawing on more data than what the Federal Communications Commission gathers from Internet providers, with a goal of launching an interactive mapping tool by September.
Last year, the FCC announced it was looking into concerns that companies may have submitted inaccurate coverage maps as part of a bidding process for a federal infrastructure program.
"A preliminary review of speed test data submitted through the challenge process suggested significant violations of the Commission's rules," FCC Chairman Ajit Pai said in a statement at the time. "That's why I've ordered an investigation into these matters. We must ensure that the data is accurate before we can proceed."
Democratic FCC Commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel called the situation "a mess," saying federal broadband maps must more accurately reflect the reality on the ground.
On Thursday, the FCC voted to approve a series of guidelines for what will ultimately be a 10-year funding process for rural broadband, with the agency planning to disburse nearly $1.5 billion in federal subsidies to wire up more than 700,000 homes and businesses in 45 states, according to officials.
When it comes to wired networks, the government considers an entire census block to be served by fixed broadband if an Internet provider offers download speeds of at least 25 megabits per second to one area household. Consumer advocates have said this approach risks overstating the number of U.S. households that are served by broadband, because many households without high-speed Internet may be located in these census blocks.
On Wednesday, Legere pitched the merger as a potential solution, saying that combining with Sprint would give T-Mobile the power not only to compete with AT&T and Verizon in mobile data, but also to challenge cable companies with a wireless network that offers comparable speeds to companies such as Comcast or Cox.
Whether that's really true will be up to the Justice Department — and the FCC — to determine.


Change a particular colour within a photograph, it's that simple! You may want to show a range of clothing - demonstrating a variety of potential colours for customers, change your eye or makeup colour or just to imagine how your vehicle may look with an different paint job. I may be able to provide the technical ability to alter the range of colouring within a image.
For this particular service you may want to send me a message before ordering so I can check what you need - you can then let me know a specific area or colour which I'll attempt to alter to another colour. If it's not possible to change your required colour or if you're dissatisfied a refund can be arranged.
Good job, satisfied with his way of handling communication.
Excellent, very happy with the work, as well as communication.


Hi, and welcome to the October edition of the PIRATE RADIO REPORT! Winter conditions are setting in which means less noise and the sunspots are arising which means this should be the best pirate DX season since 1992. Let's hope so!
The Halloween holiday has always been an active one for pirates and this year it falls on a Saturday, so expect 6955 kHz to be active throughout the afternoon and evening on October 31st. Will Radio Halloween make it's annual appearance? We'll just have to wait and see. Be sure to send in your Halloween logs which will appear in the December PPR.
The Radio Ship Electra-The Final Chapter?
It was just about two years ago that I saw a press release on the internet from Scott Becker's "LIGHTWAVE MISSION BROADCASTING" touting their newest radio ship project. I called Scott Becker and he was all excited about this new adventure in offshore radio. The ship would pay promotional visits to various eastern coastal cities. The public would be welcomed on board to share a veggie burger with the crew, etc. Also, various promotional items would be offered for sale, such as T-shirts, key rings, bags, etc. to help raise money.
MV Electra Going To St. Kitts?
As many of our regular readers know, we at THE PIRATE RADIO REPORT had been keeping an eye on the latest radio ship, the MV Electra which was being outfitted in East Boston, MA.
Well, the ship left Boston sometime in March. Allan Weiner has finished his part of the project and the rest of the project is being overseen by disbarred lawyer, Dr. Scott Becker.
Hello and welcome to the March edition of the PIRATE RADIO REPORT. I hope many of you have already made your plans to attend the 11TH ANNUAL SWL FEST in KULPSVILLE, PA this March 12th through 14th. I'm planning to be there.
This month I'm going to explain some rules as regards to reporting to pirate stations. I know many of our members are relatively new to the hobby, so I hope that the following information is of use, especially to them.
The MV Electra is all finished and ready to go. The latest delay was caused by the need to hire a new pilot and one has just been signed up. An organization called Frontline International [this is a religious group] is now identified as funder of the project. Weiner no longer expects the the ship will carry the Yesterday USA Network. As we mentioned before, there is one 10 kw shortwave transmitter and a 1 kw backup installed on the ship. The antenna is an inverted V without much gain, but the sea water will help. Weiner says that his part of the project, installing the radio equipment is done, and he will not be sailing with the ship to the Caribbean.
Hello and welcome to another edition of the PIRATE RADIO REPORT. I hope all of you have noticed the correct email address (lobdell@tiac.net) in the masthead. I'm signing up for broadband internet service via our cable TV provider. It's supposed to be 50 times faster than a 28.8 modem! We shall see.
This month I'm pleased to report that we have a station profile for you as well as an update on the Weiner-Becker radioship project plus lots of logs!
Hi and welcome to another PIRATE RADIO REPORT. Sorry about last month but a rather large schedules section got us bumped out of the line up. Anyway, we're back and all information for both the May and June editions is included in here.
Return Of The AM Pirates!
When I talk to many DXers about listening to pirate stations, one of their main complaints is that the stations broadcast in sideband, the signals are drifty and hard to tune in, plus the music sounds terrible in sideband.
Hello and welcome to another edition of the PIRATE RADIO REPORT. We have lots of interesting logs, plus a station profile on one of the more active of today's pirates, MYSTERY RADIO.
In this month's PIRATE RADIO REPORT we have news about another popular pirate station that has shut down, an update on the Radioship Electra, and more news on the South American pirate RADIO PIRANA INTERNATIONAL.
Hi and welcome to another Pirate Radio Report. I don't know about you, but I'm still recovering from all the pirates that were on over the July 4th holiday. It must have set some sort of record for activity!
The results of our pirate popularity poll are in and the first place position goes to RADIO ONE!

This post probably will help you.
As soon as you see "Compiling sketch..." on status bar, click on reset button.
If your timing is good you'll see "Done uploading."
Hi Trevor, congratulations for yout clear and very useful work!
I followed your tutorial to program my Funduinos( Mini pro clones) but I'm still scratching my head.
(just to be sure it was ok), checked all IDE settings but stll can't upload any trivial sketch.
avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 10 of 10: not in sync: resp=0xa8".
The resp code changes in different upload tries (sometimes it's 0xbd, 0x95 etc) but remains the same in the ten tries.
Please, can you hint me anything to get out of this nightmare?
-Try via and (powered) USB HUB sometimes new high speed computer USB outputs have some communication problems.
-Press reset button close to 1 sec.
-Try also unplug USB before every unsuccessful transfer. I know this is not nice at all but at least to be sure if it does at least once time.
-Also are you sure you have the same TTL board as mine? Different models can be slightly different I don't know.
-My mini pro was 16mhz is yours the same?
Thanks Trevor, I'll give it a try but with the same USB PC port I uploaded hundreds of Arduino UNO without any problem!
About reset: my doubt is when "exactly" release the reset button?!? Someone suggests to insert a capacitor (.1 uF or .01 uF in series between the reset and DTR: did you ever try?
The board seems to have the same layout and components, mine have a red PCB and the connettor's pins are in the same order but reversed.
My mini Pro is 16 Mhz, too.
I said HUB because I couldn't get work Digispark/Digistump on my computer's (MacBook) USB then I passed through external USB hub. It's weird isn't it ? We used to hear don't use hub, connect directly etc. This is why I thought might be the same reason you couldn't get upload. I'd love to remember and say you the exact time for reset button but it's more than a year. I regret that I didn't take a video. It could be clear. I tried capacitor for auto reset when I used Arduino as ISP. It was an essential component. If I reconnect my Arduino mini with this TTL converter I'll shoot a video, sure.
Is there a difference between the pro minis on the market? I'm looking to purchase one and it seems that there are a lot of 3rd party manufacturers which make them? Are they any different in terms of quality or performance? Here's the one I want to buy: arduino pro mini.
I don't think performance difference can be different but there are many 3rd part manufacturers quality is varying. Yours look normal 🙂 Also you should consider correct working voltage and cpu clock speed. There are 2 sorts: 5V/16MHZ or 3.3V/8MHZ.
Sorry for my late answer; it's because of daily SPAM loud!
Thanks a lot. Great tutorial. Helped a lot.


The omega-3 series essential fatty acids is one of the two families of EFAs which have structural and functional properties in the body. The parent omega-3 EFA is alpha-linolenic acid, ALA, which is converted in the body to EPA, eicosapentaenoic acid and then to DHA, docosahexaenoic acid. These latter two EFAs have a long chain carbon structure and are found in oily fish. They are not strictly essential as they can be made from the parent omega-3, ALA, but efficiency of production probably varies significantly from person to person and current UK guidelines recommend inclusion of at least one portion of oily fish in a person's diet per week. However significant improvement in EFA status can be made by choosing good sources of land oils as well as eating oily fish.
The omega-6 series essential fatty acids is one of the two families of EFAs which have structural and functional properties in the body. The parent omega-6 EFA is linoleic acid, LA, which is converted in the body to GLA, gamma-linolenic acid and then to AA, arachidonic acid. These latter two EFAs have a long chain carbon structure and are found in certain oils and meat respectively. They are not essential as they can be made from the parent omega-3, ALA, but efficiency of production probably varies significantly from person to person. However significant improvement in EFA status can be made by choosing good sources of land oils and not having an excessive intake of saturated fats from animal sources or trans fats from baked goods which have adverse effects upon cardiovascular health in particular.

Q: How select hierarchy from child to parent using linq for entities or EF Core 2? There is a hierarchy of four entities (models). All entities have relationships one to many. It's looks following:
public class Region
    {
        public Guid Id { get; set; }
        public int RegionId { get; set; }
        public virtual ICollection<District> Districts { get; set; }
    }
    public class District
    {
        public Guid Id { get; set; }
        public int DistrictId { get; set; }
        public virtual ICollection<Building> Buildings { get; set; }
        public int RegionId { get; set; }
        public Region Region { get; set; }
    }
    public class Building
    {
        public Guid Id { get; set; }
        public int BuildingId { get; set; }
        public int DistrictId { get; set; }
        public virtual ICollection<Flat> Flats { get; set; }
        public District District { get; set; }
    }
    public class Flat
    {
        public Guid Id { get; set; }
        public int FlatId { get; set; }
        public int BuildingId { get; set; }
        public Building Building { get; set; }
    }

It is hierarchy like: Region->District->Building->Flat.
I want return collection of Flat thats include all related entities from top.
I do it folowing:
var flat = _context.Flats
                .Include(t => t.Building)
                .Include(b=>b.Building.District)
                .Include(b => b.Building.District.Region).GetPaged(PageNumber, 20);

But for some reason is return breaking result....
[{"id":"6cbb1431-36d4-490c-a047-c211e4db3bdd","flatId":29570,"roomsCount":1,"totalArea":41.95,"kitchenArea":11.85,"floor":21,"buildingId":130,"price":5725650.00,"building":{"id":"03baca1e-02e9-4ee0-ae47-920e3eb0d5bb","buildingId":130,"name":"NNN","queue":1,"housing":"1","districtId":13003,"flats":[

It breaks for some reason on public virtual ICollection<Flat> Flats { get; set; }. I can't remove it becasue it is needed for FK.
The following query works:
_context.Flat
   .Join(
      _context.Building,
      f => f.BuildingId,
      b => b.BuildingId,
      (f, b) =>

             f = f,
             b = b

   )

   )

                 }
             }
         }
   ).GetPaged(PageNumber, PageSize)

And it is return what i whant:

                "districts": null
            }
        }
    }
}

But it is looks like cumbersome.
How can I do it using EF features? Or maybe somehow to reduce linq? And why include() return breaking result?
P.S. .GetPaged(PageNumber, 20); is extension method for pagination and he is working fine.

A: My suggesstion is below
var flag = (from f in _context.Flags
       join b in _context.Buildings
       on b.BuildingId equals f.BuildingId
       join d in _context.Districts
       on d.DistrictId equals b.DistrictId
       join r in _context.Regions
       on r.RegionId equals d.RegionId
       select new
       { ...
       }).GetPaged(PageNumber, 20);

You can get any property from Building, District and Region to populate to your result object.

The floor in my bathroom is tile and it tends to get dirty often, but I am not able to clean it with chemical filled tile cleansers. Instead, I make my own homemade lemon verbena tile floor cleaner using basic ingredients from my kitchen that help get my tiled floor clean naturally.
The basic natural ingredients needed to make my homemade lemon verbena tile floor cleaner are 1 cup of baking soda, 2 gallons of hot water and 40 drops of lemon verbena essential oil. The baking soda safely cleanses and deodorizers my tile floor gently while the lemon verbena helps kill germs and adds a lovely fresh light lemony scent to the air of my bathroom naturally. You can easily find these ingredients at any organic grocery store or herbal shop.
Now the easiest way to make the homemade lemon verbena tile floor cleaner is by pouring all these ingredients directly into a mop bucket and mixing them together with the mop until the baking soda dissolves in the hot water. Next, you are ready to clean the tiled floor in your bathroom or anywhere else in your home such as the kitchen.
The way to use the homemade lemon verbena tile floor cleaner is by soaking the mop in the cleaner for 5 minutes. Then ring the mop out and begin to mop the floor focusing on the really gritty sticky greasy places. Do this until the tiled floor becomes clean. You will notice all the dirt and grim comes up easily without having to scrub a lot with the mop, which is nice. You will also notice the air with have a lovely lemon verbena scent to it that is refreshing and uplifting. Once you have cleaned the tiled floor well with the homemade cleaner, allow the tiled floor to air dry for 30 minutes. After, you will have a lovely squeeze clean tiled floor. You can make and use this homemade lemon verbena tile floor cleaner as often as you need to in order to help keep your tiled floors clean naturally.
Now you can also use this homemade lemon verbena tile floor cleaner on marbled floors and glass floors. It will not damage or scratch them at all. However, I would never recommend using this homemade floor cleaner on wood or laminate flooring because it could causes discoloration or damage.
I do hope those of you who try the homemade verbena tile floor cleaner like the way it cleanses your tiled floors naturally and safely. I know I do and will continue to wash my tiled floors this way always. I wish you all the best with keeping your tiled floors clean in an earth friendly manner.

Hezbollah's Stealth Invasion Of A Christian Heartland
Walid Phares Contributor
January 27, 2015 10:27 AM ET
Christmas greetings from Hezbollah? That what some, including the Daily Star of Beirut, would have us believe about a series of visits by the Shia terrorist group to the heartland of the Christian Mount Lebanon during the holiday season. Hezbollah, armed and funded by Iran and part of Bashar al-Assad's genocidal arsenal in the Syrian civil war — do not have peace and goodwill in mind, even as they pass out handshakes, smiles and holiday greetings to Christians. Slowly but surely, Hezbollah members are normalizing their physical presence in the "Christian wilaya" in what amounts to a soft invasion of an area crucial to dominating the whole of Lebanon.
Even though Hezbollah is fighting today in Iraqi and Syrian battlefields, its eyes are focused on every inch of land in Lebanon. Hezbollah was formed in early 1982 as part of the Iranian regime's expansion in Lebanon. Its leaders were followers of Iran's radical fundamentalist leader Ayatollah Khomeini, and its forces were trained and organized by a contingent of 1,500 Iranian Revolutionary Guards that arrived from Iran with permission from the Syrian government. Iran remains Hezbollah's key backer and spiritual guide, pouring billions of dollars and increasingly sophisticated weaponry into the group, which the U.S. Institute of Peace rightly calls "the most successful example of the theocracy's campaign to export its revolutionary ideals."
According to the National Counterterrorism Center, "Hezbollah has been involved in numerous anti-US terrorist attacks, including the suicide truck bombings of the U.S. Embassy in Beirut in April 1983, the U.S. Marine barracks in Beirut in October 1983, and the U.S. Embassy annex in Beirut in September 1984, as well as the hijacking of TWA 847 in 1985 and the Khobar Towers attack in Saudi Arabia in 1996."
If that doesn't make you feel warm and fuzzy, neither should the group's holiday well-wishes in the Christian enclaves of Jbeil and Kesrwan. According to civil society groups' reports, armed Hezbollah patrols are roaming these same Lebanese villages by night.
Christian Mount Lebanon is crucial to Hezbollah — and to Iran. It is among the last holdouts in their domination of Lebanon, giving them a way not only to challenge and threaten Israel, but to create a line of defense against Sunni extremists like ISIS.
Hezbollah has had a very successful "clear and hold" strategy of its own in Lebanon. They walked behind the Syrian tanks into Baabda in 1990, subdued the south in 2000, and marched into West Beirut in 2008. The last territory to be secured is northern Mount Lebanon. Overtaking the towns of Kesrwan and Jbeil, together with neighboring Batroun, would allow Hezbollah to control the vital coastal road from Dahiye to Tripoli, which includes two key ports that link Lebanon to the outside world, as well as the road from the sea to the summits overlooking the Bekaa. The problem is that this part of Mount Lebanon — and others as well — has a majority of Christian Lebanese who maintain an historical grievance with the Iranian-Assad-Hezbollah troika. They will fight to the last if it comes to it.
The Christians of Mount Lebanon are increasingly isolated and slowly but unmistakably besieged by forces from without and within. ISIS is a real threat to Lebanon, as it is to the whole of the region. But Hezbollah is already there, walking among them, smiling and plotting. Regardless of ISIS, the people of Mount Lebanon will rise against Hezbollah. Indeed, the million citizens who drove or walked from the towns and villages of Mount Lebanon to Martyrs Square in Beirut in 2005 came to demonstrate against the Assad-Iran axis in Lebanese affairs.
Hezbollah's strategists are savvy and they know how to maneuver, particularly in Lebanon. They benefit from a large and effective propaganda machine, one that includes, sadly, apologists within the Christian community whose political wounds from an intra-community civil war a quarter of a century ago have never healed. But their deft holiday campaign is nonetheless cynical and very dangerous. They have cleverly concealed an invasion in holiday wrapping. A Trojan horse for an endangered Christian community. We must assure this sacred land does not turn into the Ayatollah's next battlefield.

ty, hey aj aren't u from citrix?
Id have to say no for now, because the how you would handle a hacker and how you would handle a fight arent very good. Youd handle a hacker by warning, then ban.
Youd handle a fight, not warping just one person, that wouldnt be very fair them getting flamed while the other person gets to stay in the fm and talk to their friends. when people are fighting you should warp them both to the same jail and get them to appoligise to each other.
Thanks for applying. Try again when the server is open.
Nope, I heard of Citrix but never played it, why?
you and aj are most active on fourms and this is your reward =] enjoy.


To kick off the Tuesday morning, I would like to share this video of Cai Guo-Qiang's latest exhibition showcase at MoCA Los Angeles. Although this was for the opening ceremony, I still thought it was a pretty neat treat! He always has something to pull out from his sleeves. The exhibition, Sky Ladder will be open until July 30th, 2012.

Mr Chicken arrives in London via parachute, without wasting any time on immigration control he sets off to see as many of the famous sights as he possibly could.
He sails over the Houses of Parliament, and lands in the River Thames.
Although no-one seemed to notice and heads off to the Savoy Hotel, which is THE place to stay in London.
Mr Chicken visits Buckingham Palace and has tea with the Queen before heading off across Piccadilly Circus and the London Eye. Amazingly, Mr Chicken blends in well with the local people and other tourists before heading back home 'down under'.
A brilliant picture book about a loveable character making his way across the centre of London. Explore the city of London with Mr Chicken and find all the most famous sights. Leigh Hobbs is excellent at portraying characters in different places and Mr Chicken Arrives in London is part of a series of books about travels into European cities.

A brilliant books with characters emerging from every page, illustrated with line drawings and bringing the book and Mr Badger to life.

Mr Badger is always on hand to cope with many surprises at the Boubles Grand Hotel.
My favourite story is Mr Badger and the Missing Ape. Algernon is usually kept stuffed in a glass case in the lobby. But Lady Celia's granddaughter is not happy with this gorilla and wants it sent away. As she usually gets just whatever she wants the alarming disappearance one morning gives Mr Badger quite a task, but solve it, he does.
There are four stories in the one book, which is full of brilliant sketches and the characters really come to life.
Mr Badger is written by Leigh Hobbs, who has an amazing talent for writing and for illustrating too. He has a great website for a whole range of his books.
This year he has been appointed as the Australian Children's Laureate and there are whole host of great activities for children all over the world as well as Australia.
Mr Badger is published by Allen and Unwin, Australia and can be purchased here in the UK.
A great book and we recommend for children 7+, especially for those who still get a lot from the images through each chapter.

I've created a app that uses a EEG to write text with eye blinks, worked with Robots and co-developed a android game that had about 1M downloads in 2011. I've also helped creating a software tool for Mobile Network planning and optimization, which is deployed on several carriers, such as Vodafone (PT, UK, ES), Oi (Brazil) and Unitel (Angola). After that I created Ground Control from almost scratch and no funding, and since then I've brokered partnerships with Microsoft (XBox, Hololens), Sony, Nintendo, Samsung, negotiated a tech endorsment from Oculus, HTC (Vive) and Leap Motion. In between I've created Cosmonaut (Steam/XBox) which is an award-winning narrative survival. I've also created EasyVR which is a solution for Interactive 360 VR narrative creation and I helped creating Roombuilder, which is a tool for realtime design and interaction with hiper-realistic, digital spaces. I've also scouted or prototyped all the other games/projects that belong to Ground Control's catalog.

A retrospective of the path of VR and AR so far; successes and failiures. Then a look at the present and future of digital realities empowered by MR and how everything became XR. Finally a discussion of some notable real-world case-studies for all those technologies on the fields of gaming, tourism, industrial operations and real estate.


Having completed the European leg of her Remote Year, Digital Risks Director Annabel set off to South America for the second half of her trip. We caught up with her to find out how the digital nomad life is going in the home of Tango, Malbec and arguably the best steak in the world - Argentina.
South America is so different to Europe – how were your first few days?
It started off so well – the flight was great and I felt super fit on my first day in the capital. Then disaster struck and my laptop got stolen! It was traumatic to begin with but fortunately all the data we have is stored in the cloud, which meant we could wipe it to avoid anything being breached. Our business travel insurance also covered everything so replacing it was no problem.
It did however change my sense of safety and I've been more aware than I normally am - not taking out my phone on the street and carrying my backpack in front of me.
What's the set-up been like?
It's been great - we were all staying in a former hotel and each had our own room with kitchenette. It had a spacious lobby and roof terrace as shared space which was great. BA turned out to be a lot more expensive than we anticipated, so it was nice to have a great place to host our own parties.
How are you finding the time difference?
This was the first time I've had a significant time difference - 4 hours with the office and 5 with family and friends. Work-wise, there hasn't been a disruption and we've still had plenty of overlapping business hours to catch-up. Staying in touch with family and friends has been more challenging though, as when I reach out it tends to be in the evening, when Europe is fast asleep! It means I have to stay in touch just at weekends now.
After BA, we moved to Cordoba. I'm not super in love with the city yet, but the one thing that really sticks out is the people. They are really friendly, both compared to BA and many other cities we've stayed in. Everywhere you go, people ask where you're from and why you're in Cordoba. They are clearly not used to lots of tourists.
What have you liked most about South America so far?
For me this is mainly a month to have some time to myself and exercise a lot.
I celebrated my birthday this month which was a lot of fun. We have a birthday 'pay it forward' concept, so the person whose birthday was before mine had to do something for my birthday. Kevin arranged a surprise dinner and made an amazing drawing - I really felt special that day.
We'll be catching up with Annabel to hear how she's getting on in South America. So, stay tuned for future highlights!
