It was not the only clash of cultures. No more than 20 yards from the candy-floss and tat of a British promenade there was a taste of California as pure as freshly-squeezed orange juice. It was Margate and it was cold, windy and occasionally rainy but on the sandy courts the sun reigned. Beach boys and girls with tanned swim-suited bodies itched to emerge from their track suits and sweaters but it was to be only fleetingly. Sun glasses were de rigueur but almost everyone was wrapped up like winter watchers.
On view was a sport that owes its roots to beach bummery but has since been hijacked by the serious. You have to be: the five grands prix circuits and training costing around pounds 2,000 a year. Margate, a two-day event, represented a watershed for the sport in Britain in that prize money was being awarded for the first time but even the winners of the pounds 150 first prize would only have been cutting their losses. Next week the money will go on a grand prix in Bridlington, later in the summer it will be at Weymouth and then Newcastle.
'You have to really love beach volleyball,' one participant said. 'It's a not a cheap sport unless you stay in a tent. If it rains it can be pretty miserable.' It was not the sort of thing you would expect to hear in the home of the sport, southern California. There, huge crowds and television cameras view the major events - not to mention the women who play in little more than G-strings - and top players earn small fortunes. Karch Kiraly, the men's world champion with his partner, Kent Steffes, earned dollars 320,000 ( pounds 210,000) in prize money alone last year. With endorsements he is a substantial dollar millionaire.
Which is a comprehensively different league to the sport in Britain, which was given its initial shove by a scene in the film Top Gun and now has some 60 male and female partnerships playing to a standard where they would not have sand kicked in their faces by the leading Europeans. The Americans and Brazilians are the lords of the beach but Britain is catching up.
There are suggestions too that it might become an Olympic sport in either 1996 or 2000. The IOC is discouraging new events but beach volleyball might get in as a variation of the indoor sport.
'It would give the sport a massive boost,' Ian Fairclough, chairman of the Beach Volleyball Commission and a leading player, said. 'We would gain enormously in credibility.' At the moment only 5 per cent of the pounds 50,000 given to the English Volleyball Association by the Royal Bank of Scotland finds it way on to the sand.
Fairclough slipped on to the beach from the indoor sport, preferring the emphasis on fitness and all-round skills that playing with one partner brings. The court and net are the same size as volleyball proper and there is the speed-sapping effect of the sand. 'It's possible to get by in the six- a-side game,' he said, 'but on the beach, with only two of you, your deficiencies are exposed.' Even Lori Flynn, a 28-year-old former Canadian women's indoor international, found the change in pace staggering. 'I'd given up the sport for a few years but when I arrived on the beach I assumed I'd be tearing up the court. When I started playing I realised I was absolutely crap. Because of the sand I was hardly reaching any speed at all.'
Flynn and her partner, Shelna Sinte, had their limitations revealed 15-5 by the No 1 seeds, Mandy Kittlety and Mo Glover, who will represent Britain in the World Games in the Netherlands in a fortnight's time. 'We would be disappointed to finish lower than sixth,' Kittlety said. 'The gap between us and the best of Europe is narrowing.'
Meanwhile, Little Richard was belting out. Isn't the music intrusive? 'Sometimes,' she agreed, 'particularly on important points. But we played in an event last week in Bournemouth without music and it seemed curiously flat. All the big events have it.' There are limits, however, and later the players requested the music should be turned down.
The voice on the Tannoy interrupted: 'Hawkins and Tuohey and Pincott and Rodgers on Court Four.' In the disco-accompanied world of beach volleyball, even the players sound like pop groups.

Public Information Notice: IMF Concludes Article IV Consultation with People's Republic of China in Respect of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region
March 2, 2001
Public Information Notices (PINs) form part of the IMF's efforts to promote transparency of the IMF's views and analysis of economic developments and policies. With the consent of the country (or countries) concerned, PINs are issued after Executive Board discussions of Article IV consultations with member countries, of its surveillance of developments at the regional level, of post-program monitoring, and of ex post assessments of member countries with longer-term program engagements. PINs are also issued after Executive Board discussions of general policy matters, unless otherwise decided by the Executive Board in a particular case. |
On February 16, 2001, the Executive Board concluded the Article IV consultation with People's Republic of China in Respect of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.1
The recovery from the Asian crisis, which began in mid-1999, gained momentum in 2000. Initially, the turnaround was driven by net exports, reflecting the rapid growth of Mainland re-exports (by far the largest component of Hong Kong SAR's trade). Since late 1999, net exports gave way to domestic demand—spurred largely by restocking of inventories—as the dominant driver of growth. Private investment also picked up from the low base of 1999. However, the recovery in consumption has been somewhat slower. The unemployment rate has declined slowly from March-May 1999 peak of 6¼ percent to 4½ percent in late 2000. The prolonged deflation—which has helped unwind the appreciation of the real exchange rate during the Asian crisis, thereby improving external competitiveness—has eased considerably.
Market confidence has strengthened. Riding on strong foreign portfolio inflows, stock prices surged in the early part of the year, before weakening in line with the U.S. market to settle around pre-crisis levels. The capital inflows also pushed money market rates below those in the United States for the better part of 2000. Overall, monetary conditions are liquid, as reflected in a rising bank deposit-to-loan ratio. Lending rates, especially on mortgages, have also declined substantially but remain high in real terms due to deflation.
Hong Kong SAR banks endured the recession relatively well, despite the high exposure to the property sector. At an average 18 percent, bank capitalization remained well above the Basle standard, the ratio of nonperforming to total loans has started to decline from its peak of 10½ percent in the third quarter of 1999, and profitability was up. The HKMA also embarked on a gradual liberalization of remaining interest rate rules operated by the Hong Kong Association of Banks—the first phase of which was completed in July 2000. The final phase is scheduled for July this year. Despite the strong recovery, loan growth remains low, with the pick up in investment being financed mainly internally and through the equity market.
Hong Kong SAR's budgetary position has traditionally been in surplus, and fiscal policy generally has not been countercylical except during the Asian crisis. In response to the crisis, the government eased fiscal policy temporarily, mainly by bringing forward large public sector projects. With the improvement in the economic situation, public investment has been reduced. However, for FY 2000 the government envisages a slightly higher fiscal deficit than budgeted, reflecting a shortfall in privatization revenue.
Executive Board Assessment
Executive Directors agreed with the thrust of the staff appraisal. They were impressed with the rapid economic recovery in 1999-2000 after a short but painful period of adjustment following the Asian crisis. Directors noted that real GDP rebounded, unemployment declined, and market confidence remained strong, despite regional uncertainty and high oil prices. They credited this turnaround to the flexibility of Hong Kong SAR's markets, and to the authorities' pragmatic handling of fiscal policy during the recession.
Directors observed that the continued fall in prices did not reflect generalized demand weakness, but mainly the lagged response of rental contracts to the correction in property prices. They pointed out that deflation had improved Hong Kong SAR's competitiveness by reversing the real exchange rate appreciation that had occurred during the early stages of the Asian crisis. Looking ahead, Directors noted that, according to staff estimates, economic growth in 2001 is likely to slow to its trend rate of around 4 percent, reflecting the fading impetus from stock building and a weaker external environment, while deflation will give way to low inflation. However, downside risks remain, especially if the external environment worsens, and will require continued vigilance by the authorities.
Directors observed that Hong Kong SAR's rules-based approach to economic policy has been effective and reiterated their strong support for the linked exchange rate system, which has been underpinned by commodity and factor price flexibility in the domestic market and continues to provide a stable and transparent policy framework. They observed that the measures introduced by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority in 1998 to strengthen the currency board appear to be working well and welcomed the authorities' intentions to continue refining the system as circumstances warrant.
Directors commended the authorities' long record of skillful fiscal management. They praised the pragmatic injection of fiscal stimulus during the Asian crisis in 1998-99 when, within a medium-term framework of returning to budget balance, traditional surpluses gave way to a deficit. Directors viewed the fiscal stance in 2001-02, as charted in last year's medium-range forecast, to be appropriate.
Over the longer term, Directors noted that the aging of the population and the need to upgrade human capital continually to maintain a competitive service-based economy would put pressure on health and education spending, while revenue growth could slow if stamp duties and other property-related revenues lag behind GDP growth. In this context, Directors welcomed the timely establishment of the Task Force on Review of Public Finances to study the causes of the recent deterioration in the operational fiscal balance, and of an Advisory Committee to examine the pros and cons of a broad-based goods and services tax and alternative revenue-enhancing measures. In this context, a few Directors noted that the particular advantages of Hong Kong SAR's tax system should not be undermined.
Directors recommended that the authorities also consider measures to control the growth in health spending, such as greater cost-sharing arrangements in the area of public health, including more private insurance and higher user fees, with appropriate safeguards for the needy.
Directors expressed concern that income disparity had worsened during the Asian crisis, as real incomes of low-skilled workers declined significantly. They supported the authorities' approach of tackling this issue through greater public efforts in raising skill levels, while also stressing the need to have an adequate safety net in place, especially in view of the aging population.
Directors observed that the banking system had demonstrated its resilience during the turbulence of the Asian crisis. They attributed this resilience to prudent banking practices, strong legal institutions, and an effective supervisory framework. Directors welcomed the scheduled removal of the remaining deposit interest rate ceilings in July 2001, and commended the efforts to establish a commercial credit reference agency.
Directors welcomed the recent steps to reform the securities market that would enhance Hong Kong SAR's reputation as an international financial center, including, in particular, the establishment of a U.S. dollar clearing system in Hong Kong SAR; the proposed introduction of deposit insurance; the introduction of the composite Securities and Futures Bill; and the move to risk-based supervision of banks and regular assessment of cross-market risks. Directors also welcomed the authorities' interest in participating in a Financial Sector Assessment Program.
Some Directors observed that, while the banking sector and equity markets in Hong Kong SAR continue to intermediate the economy's financing needs efficiently, there remains further scope to strengthen the international financial center through the deepening of the private debt market. Directors also welcomed the progress achieved in disposing the domestic equities acquired during the stock market intervention in August 1998 in an orderly and transparent manner.
Directors noted that China's upcoming accession to the WTO is likely to have significant effects over time on the economy of Hong Kong SAR. They observed that, while Hong Kong SAR is likely to lose some traditional activities, such as trans-shipment trade and low value-added financial services, new opportunities will open up as demand for advanced financial and managerial services from the Mainland is expected to rise. Although available studies suggest that, on balance, the impact of accession would be beneficial for Hong Kong SAR, they stressed that, in order to take full advantage of the increased opportunities, Hong Kong SAR will need to continue to pursue steadfastly its efforts to upgrade the economy's infrastructure and human capital.
Directors noted that, although Hong Kong SAR is one of the most open economies in the world, domestic competition issues need to be monitored closely, especially in some of the unregulated sectors, as the lowering of business costs would remain critical to the economy's future. In this connection, they urged the authorities to keep under review the most appropriate ways of ensuring transparent and fair competition, including the option of establishing a formal competition law. They also stressed the importance of improving the quality of corporate accounts and disclosure, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises.
Directors welcomed Hong Kong SAR's compliance with the Fund's Special Data Dissemination Standard. They commended the authorities' efforts to publish data on their international investment position and bring forward the publication of external debt data to mid-2002. They urged the authorities to continue to make progress in publishing a monetary survey and fiscal accounts in a standardized international format.

Lovely villa in quiet, private spot
Really lovely villa, nicer than we expected - well stocked with kitchen crockery, glasses, etc. Also tea towels and washing up liquid which was really helpful. We enjoyed the private position of the villa and spent most days around the pool. Went into the local towns for dinner each evening. Very pleasant holiday.
Beautiful villa
We had a superb holiday in July. The photos of the villa don't do it justice. I was a little worried that the outdoor seating arrangements looked "hard" and "uncomfortable" but the owner had added new large sofa style seating on the veranda and the dining chairs had been replaced with more comfortable cushioned chairs. We had some wonderful evenings barbequing/sitting reading by the pool with a glass (or two) of wine. The location is very peaceful and easy to get to from the airport (35 mins). It is well placed for visits to Pollensa Town and Puerto Pollensa (both of which we love). I would definately go back here.

Activity and Interests
Special interest holidays:
Majorca is a very popular destination for cycling and most of europes stars train here! Can Estrellas is perfectly situated for a cycling holiday with great rates during the mild winter climate
The nearest beaches are Alcudia and Pollensa which are both 15 mins away by car, which also have beautiful marinas and great restaurants
Palma airport is approximately 35 minutes by car and Palma port is about 50 from ferry terminals by car, a taxi costs approximately 65 Euros for 4 persons but a private transfer for up to 7 can be arranged for about 75 Euros from the airport, we would recommend that the villa does need use of a car to get about, but the taxis service is very good also
8 mins Pollensa town, 12 mins Puerto Pollensa, 10 mins Alcudia town, 12 mins Alcudia port
Further Details:
Can Estrellas is only 12 minutes away from both Alcudia and Pollensa beaches which makes it ideal for a quiet holiday but not far away from 2 great holiday resorts including lovely marinas and restaurants

Raven Red
And I understand affirmative action. I think it's great that a well-respected cosmetics company like Revlon is willing to take a stand and provide much-needed jobs to those with disabilities.
Just one small problem:
Next time, assign the color-blind employees to something not requiring them to differentiate between this:
and this:

Seriously lol Raven Red???? That makes no sense -.- a nail polish based on a raven should be a black maybe mixed with purple, and maybe kinda metalic, but then its not really a raven... o.o
ReplyDelete Anon./Kaylee, you're right; a dark purple/black would be much more appropriate and raven-y. It also sounds like a much more interesting shade. I actually just got one that sounds similar: Branwen's Feather from Butter London. It seems like they had the same naming idea. What colors does your mother want you to wear? Let me guess: pink or red? My younger cousin's mother wouldn't let her wear any brightly-colored nail polish, but when she saw my sister wearing black and me wearing light teal, she decided that maybe she should be more permissive. Maybe your mom just needs to see interesting nail polish colors on someone mainstream to convince her that it's really not a "bad girl" thing anymore. You could ask your friends (the ones that she likes!) to wear crazy colors when they come over, or show your mom some pictures of celebrities wearing daring colors on the red carpet.
ReplyDelete- AnonymousJune 20, 2011 at 6:05 PM
It's an old shade, first made in 1945. Before color film, maybe?? lol.

Lamborghini Urus, Sesto Elemento Heading to Monterey
I'd love to get a look at that Sesto Elemento. That thing is great. They should keep the Urus in Italy or better yet drop it over the side of the boat on the way over. Lamborghini doing an SUV is almost sacrilege. If VW wants a more "mainstream" Lambo, they should do a 2+2 touring car in keeping with Ferruccio's original intent.

United States Church Records Huguenot Church RecordsContents
Brief History
The Huguenot Church began in France and eventually faced fierce persecution there. The first large migration of French Protestants (Huguenots) began after the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre in 1572. In 1598 the Edict of Nantes granted religious freedom. In 1685 the revocation of the Edict of Nantes removed all religious freedom and caused Protestants to flee by the thousands to foreign nations, including the United States, Germany, and England. About 200,000 Huguenots left France as a result. Often Huguenot families would settle in one country, then move to another.
For additional early history, see:
- Experiences of the French Huguenots in America - The King's Refugees is a document written in about 1908. It contains information about French Huguenots and their flight to America. It also features several of the earliest French Huguenot immigrants and their descendants.
History in the United States
In what is now the United States, Huguenots settled in:
- Florida
- Kentucky
- Massachusetts
- New Jersey
- New York, New Amsterdam (now New York City)
- North Carolina
- Pennsylvania
- Rhode Island
- South Carolina
- Virginia
Huguenots (French Reformed) 1st to Germany, England, Nethelands—1620 Chesterfield and Powhatan Co VA; bef. 1685 Charleston SC; 1700 Manakintown VA; 1704 Bath NC
From South Carolina French Huguenots led by Laudonnière settled in Florida in 1564. An initial plantation of 300 established Fort Caroline now part of present day Jacksonville. By 1565, Spanish military efforts had wiped out the colony martyring many Huguenot settlers.In 1564 the French Protestants (Huguenots) attempted to colonize North America, building a colony nearby the modern day Jacksonville, Florida. The Spanish had already staked claim in that locality and soon rid the area of the French
- Original Papers Concerning the Huguenot and Walloon Lines. Frankfort, KY: Historical Society, [196–?]. (Family History Library FHL film 551317.) About half of the early pioneers of Kentucky were descended from French-speaking Protestants, including the Huguenots from southern France and the Walloons from southern Belgium. These unindexed papers contain the history of these two groups of people.
See Boston Massachusetts Churches for information about the French Huguenot Church in Boston, 1686-1748/1764. Unfortunately no records of this church survive.
New Jersey
Between 1677 and the early 1700s, Dutch-speaking French Huguenots from Harlem and Staten Island, New York, settled at Schraalenburgh (now Bergenfield) in the Hackensack Valley of Bergen County. Other Huguenots settled in Monmouth County.
New York
One of the important legacies of the New Netherland colony was religious tolerance. The Dutch Reformed Church, a Calvinist denomination, was predominant at first. However, from the beginning the colony was also a haven for religious minorities such as Huguenots (French Protestants), and Jews.[1]Huguenots settled on Staten Island and in New Harlem, Bushwick, and Flushing in 1657 and 1658. New Paltz, Ulster County, was founded in 1677 by Huguenots. In 1688 the Huguenots established New Rochelle in Westchester County.

Rhode Island
The liberal religious culture, laws, and policies in colonial Rhode Island created a wonderful location for French Huguenots.
South Carolina
Jean Ribault established a French Huguenot colony in South Carolina in 1562. American Presbyterianism can trace its origins to this foundation.The Huguenot Society of South Carolina was formed in 1885 "to preserve the memory of the Huguenots who left France prior to the promulgation of the Edict of Toleration, November 28, 1787. Today, the Society has nearly 2,000 members who are descendants of those Huguenots."
Huguenots made settlements in Colonial South Carolina at Goose Creek, Orange Quarter, St. John's Berkeley, French Santee, New Bordeaux, and Purrysburgh.[2]
- Many French Huguenots made South Carolina their home. The 114+ volume Transactions of the Huguenot Society of South Carolina is a great starting point for research: FHL book 975.7 C4h. Google books has several volumes.

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources
- Beginner Saltwater Aquariums
- - MARINE LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEM (tips please)
MARINE LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEM (tips please) I was going to build a ten gallon marine life support system. can anybody give me tips on how to and whats best. |
i do not fully understand. please explain alittle more |
I was going to have a ten gallon tank with ajustable lighting, waterflow, and other important factors so that I can hold any type of animal for a period of time for my friends like seahorses corals or anemones |
thanks for clearing that up. well, seahorses are fragile organisms, that are extremely care dependent. i strongly advise not housing horses until you are well knowledgable on the subject. im sure after 30 minutes of reading seahorse care you'll decide it is too much to keep up with. corals and anemones need a tank that has alk, calcium, magnesium levels stable for survival. anemones should be housed in a more "established" tank to ensure its stability. if an anemone dies it will "nuke" your livestock. ill start with a few questions, what kind of lighting and how is it adjustable? what kind of anemone were you thinking, and what kind of fish (if any) do you plan on housing? my intention is not to discourage you from keeping a saltwater tank but to inform you prior. please do countless hours of research to ensure your success as well as learning the right way of doing things the first time around. if you have any questions dont hesitate to ask. |
The thing is that i've been a marine hobbiest for awhile now and like there are light filxtures with multiple types of lighting all separatly controlled for example a single fixture may contain LEDs Flourescent Metal Halide Compact Flourescent Actinic And other things as well |
right, a common pre built fixture is MH with power compacts and LED moonlights. actinic is a type of bulb not lighting. |

A Damage Control Monday … Tuesday Cup O'Chiefs
From the Truman Sports Complex
The Chiefs and Chargers were still playing on the field Sunday in San Diego when Todd Haley began the process of figuring out what went wrong.
That's how bad things had gotten in the fourth quarter of the 31-0 debacle – there was time to access the damage even before the car came to a complete stop after the accident. They were doing the autopsy before the patient was pronounced dead.
"We did a lot of talking over the headsets as the game was winding down," Haley said. "You go back through and you figure out what you personally could have done better to make the outcome be different. If all of us do that, we'll have a chance to make progress out of this."
Progress is going to be the only way the Chiefs recover from what has to go down as a learning experience for this team. Many of these players were in this position for the first time in their young careers and they learned a valuable lesson – when the calendar turns to December in the NFL, the intensity level goes up for those teams fighting for spots in the post-season tournament.
Haley talked about it last week, how the point was being made to the team that each quarter of the season requires a step up on the intensity level.
That certainly was what the Chiefs were missing against San Diego. They weren't missing intensity; they were without an intensity level to match that of the Chargers.
"Right from the start, we did not come out and match the level of intensity they had," said veteran guard Brian Waters.
They most certainly did not and in the aftermath, that's something the Chiefs will take a close look at – why did the team not respond to the idea that they couldn't continue to play the way they have all year. There's a reality that comes with not increasing the intensity level in December.
"You will get exposed this time of year against good teams," said Haley. "Our focus is on trying to become a good team. We know we are not there yet. It's been very clear a number of times in the year. We've shown a lot of good signs and good indicators that we are making progress in becoming a good team, but we clearly are not there yet. That team we played yesterday is in that category and they've been there for a number of years. There's a lot to be learned from that."
On the teams return flight home from San Diego on Sunday night they were delayed almost two hours by a mechanical problem with their charter aircraft. As frustrating as the waiting around was, Haley said he put the time to good use. The coach wandered out of the first class cabin where he sits and headed to the back of the plane where the players are located.
"I went back through and talked to each and every guy," Haley said. "I thought it was good time spent. We are a developing team and there is so much to learn from each and every experience. That's what's critical, that you are learning from it, that you are taking something out of each game, each practice and figure out a way to make yourself better. That's how we are going to be a good team year in and year out, by staying the course and not deviating from that. And, understanding we are not there, and exactly what we are. "
A couple comments were popular Monday around the Chiefs complex – it is what it is, and you are what you are. The Chiefs are 8-5. They lead the AFC West, now by a single game over the Chargers. But they are a flawed football team. Overall they are inexperienced on the ways of a contender in the NFL. On top of that, they don't yet have enough talent to overcome injuries to major contributors. They are piecing together this run to a potential spot in the playoffs on the fly and sometimes it will fall together perfectly (see the Seattle game) and sometimes it will look like a fraternity prank thrown together on the quad (see Denver, San Diego.)
What the Chiefs have done a good job on this year is putting games like the San Diego blowout behind them. They didn't let the Houston fourth-quarter crumble derail them – they answered with back-to-back victories. They didn't let the 20-point loss in Denver change their approach of moving on from disappointing and they won three in a row after that game.
Now they have another chance to respond. Three in a row at this point will put them in the AFC playoffs, no ifs, and or buts.
"We've got to move on," Haley said. "We've done a very good job of moving on, win or lose. Now we have to do the same thing. We have to move on, move forward. You can't let a big win or a tragic loss drag you down. If you do, you'll be sorry. That's been our m.o., what we've preached and the guys have done a good job of paying attention to that.
"It's the little things this time of year. You can get away with some little things every once in awhile, especially early in the year. This time of year, your fundamentals have to be right on point. Yesterday, they weren't. "
And that means on Wednesday when they return to the practice field, the Chiefs will get a healthy dose of the little things.
"We've shown the ability to bounce back, but this will be the most devastating loss to date," said Haley. "Those others were all forgotten because we found a way to come back. What we need to do is take this devastating loss and take it as a catalyst to try and make ourselves better for these last three games. If we do that, we'll have the chance to be a good team."
- BRONCOS – placed S Kyle McCarthy on the injured-reserve list (knee) ending his season.
- LIONS – placed CB Brandon McDonald on the injured-reserve list (forearm) ending his season.
- PANTHERS – placed DE Everette Brown on the injured-reserve list (wrist) ending his season.
- REDSKINS – placed SS LaRon Landry on the injured-reserve list (Achilles) ending his season.

I agree forget it learn from it we have More Fish to Fry.
Go CHIEFS Go
December 14, 2010 - Josh says:
I only hope this team can recognize that every game counts. The inconsistency is as damaging to morale as big losses. We don't just have to win the next three, we have to dominate, if we've any hope of showing a sporting chance come wildcard weekend.
December 14, 2010 - Milkman says:
I think is was very evident Sunday that all the Chargers bought into Philip Rivers' claim that the "playoffs are now". That was the difference in intensity. A lot of the players on their team have playoff experience and it showed. We will get to see in the next few weeks just how much the Chiefs have bought into Todd Haley and his program. I think even he realizes we don't have all the pieces to make any kind of serious run if we do get to the post-season. But it sure would be nice to get some playoff experience for the ones we do.
December 14, 2010 - Chuck says:
I agree as "to put this one behind us" but I think the thing that we all learned is that without Cassel in there we have very little chance of winning. I personally thought Brodie looked very bad. 7-17 and 40 yards just doesn't stand a chance in the NFL.
December 14, 2010 - Mike says:
Remember the few times this year when they could have let Brodie get some snaps when the team was playing well or even at the end in the Denver crash. The coach let the player (Matt) decide on one occassion. Croyle did not look as good as he should have on many occassions durin this game. He moved out of the pocket into pressure when he could have stepped forward and thrown several times. A back up must get some time not 2 or 3 plays in practice. That is on Haley big time.
Prepare your team as team is what he sells.
December 14, 2010 - el cid says:
OMG, this article is revealing about last sunday's debacle/slaughter/asskicking. Yes, put it behind us, cannot change anything anyway. But be aware of what you looked at, at least the amount of the game you could stand to watch. The Haley/coaches game plan was finished after the first drive by SD. The coaches just took it. They might as well of forfeited after the first 5 minutes and left the field. This is supposed to be the NFL, "pro" football. You are "paid" big bucks to entertain. So you go down swinging, that is right you try anything but not our Chiefs (and I am not talking about the players here), no we are building for that future dynasty so what is wasted effort in 2010, we will forget it.
As for the players, veterans looked old, Croyle lost, Bowe stayed in KC with Cassel, and the rest less than average (Flowers). How much was that genius game plan or SD need of a win? Who knows, just/better get ready for St L.
December 14, 2010 - Morten says:
Bob; What is it in your opinion that is happening to our run defence? Is it fatigue or do the other teams have figured out how to run against KC? We really need to fix this if we want to have any shot at getting into the playoffs. And is it just me or is the hamstring still slowing Flowers down? In my opninion he has not looked sharp the last two games…
December 14, 2010 - el cid says:
Mort, it is nice someone noticed. Maybe Flowers is trying to play thru injury. The run defense is not there because of a lack of quality players. Dorsey and Smith seem to contribute fairly regularily. Edwards as been a stop gap as long as Haley was been here (Smith was supposed to help here but a lack of DE changed that). Jackson is still waiting to contribute. Gilberry has regressed and not much else. Add the LBs regularily out of position and are not getting the job done, we cannot stop the run. Just chase it down. Hali is not a run stopper and DJ and Belcher are sad in the middle Vrabel is done and backup have not shown much upside.
December 14, 2010 - aPauled says:
The biggest disapointment to me in our 2 debacles this year has been the O-Line. This group is anchored by vets Waters, Wiegman and Lilja who all have playoff experience. How can this group not rise up and get the rest of the team up for big games? They have done quite the opposite. In the 2 debacles…they were the group that came out and got pushed around setting the tone for the whooping.
December 14, 2010 - jim says:
el cid, I'm sitting here trying to find a way to rebutt some of what you said, but cannot. We (you and I) are normally at odds in a rib poking sort of way ( I hope) with your glass half empty and mine half full, but I am FORCED to agree with you completely. Nice post.
I'm not sure if this young squad understands how to play in December, and if the talent is there to reach the level of play necessary in December. we'll find out quickly.
This I do know. We'd better not go into the Ed Jones Dome Sunday expecting an October walk in the park. Spags has the Rams playing at a very high, intense level and we'll likely get another solid asswhoopin if we take them lightly. Believe that…..
We could talk about how Wiegman and company got thrown around like rag dolls, etc., etc., but that's old news. We just need to get as good as we CAN get, and get there quick.
December 14, 2010 - bhive01 says:
aPauled is right. In both the Denver and SD game our O-line stunk, which meant no running game, which meant we couldn't control time of possession or score many points until the prevent defense showed up.
December 14, 2010 - el cid says:
Jim, just for purposes of disagreement (LOL) consider this. These pro players are getting ready to play SD. What do the coaches give you to succeed? You spent the last 20 years playing football and, while not headed to a HOF, you know your profession. You supposedly have two "genius'" as coordinators and your record in 2010 is better than anyone expected. And you look at the game plan they expect you to "succeed" with. Offense, run, run,pass, punt. Defense drop back as deep as possible and pray they make a mistake. No wonder this team looked so bad last sunday. Your coaches told you, forget your booboos and strap on your helmets and wait to get killed. My point is the management of the Chiefs quit on this team, their players, and we simple fans. And it all falls back on Mr Pioli needing 4 or more years to build his kind of team. Today is what is important not failure waiting for some mystical future.
December 14, 2010 - dan in joplin says:
Ok, I've been holding off on posting this because of fear! But it just keeps rolling around in my head and I have to now! Go easy on me!
Ok, I've been trying to wrap my brain around this SD game because of how bad we "played". Is it possible that it was intentional? I mean they "lost" on purpose or decided to play half speed and just "get thru it". Here are some reasons why I think it could have been possible: Cassel is out and we prob had a chance to win with him, but w/ croyle the coaching staff says no way. The whole team showed lack of effort, there was no "creative" game planning on either side of the ball. I don't think McCluster was targeted once on offense. It's just hard to imagine/believe that they went into that game full steam ahead! Is it possible they really played that bad and were trying? I guess, but not probable. What would be the advantage of doing something like this? Well, w/ this current regime's secrecy about everything and how unorthodox they operate, I could see them saying, we'll lose it anyway, so why give any other teams another game film of us to look at! Why show your creativity on either side of the ball and give them anything to their advantage? Lets get thru this one w/out injury (hopefully) but make it "look good enough". Since they felt they had "no chance" they knew they would need these last three games anyway….
Look I know they got there a$$ kicked and I'm not trying to make excuses and I understand how much was on the line, just a thought. Has anybody ever heard of a team doing this? Help me get this thought out of my head! We all like to use the phrase "mailed it in", but does that apply to before you even start the game? -
December 14, 2010 - Kiowa says:
I pretty much agree with El Cid. Someone else asked why the run D looks so bad, and it seems obvious they aren't stacking the box and trying to not get scorched by big pass QBs like Rivers. Once ya do that, here comes the run. They need to go out and get another pass rushed like Hali and real game changing linebackers. The deep guys are all young except forMcGraw so need for long term worry there. Though Berry needs to grow up!
Very disappointed in Weiss and the play calling, just let them play and go down the field instead of being scared to turn it over onve in awhile.
December 14, 2010 - Jimbo says:
The San Diego game was so bad I could barely stand to hear it on the radio, let alone watching it on TV. There was no fight in our team, pure and simple. There is'nt enough sugar on this planet to coat the fiasco that occurred in southern California. Our second worse offensive display in franchise history. Yikes… Yes, all teams in the course of a year have a game plan & outcome that is forgettable. We have had two.
Haley has said it best, "we are not a good team yet". I doubted him, even after the Denver 1 game I doubted him. Not any more. He is spot on with his statement. I did not expect a total collapse with the Chargers. Offense, defense, coaching Oh yeah, everbody got involved in this one.
For the past 40 years I always dream about the Chiefs going to the playoffs and winning the big one. Most true fans do. On the other hand reality has kept me in check and I am usually content with a big win every now and then. In September I did not expect the Chiefs to contend for a playoff spot. Like any other year, I just wanted them to. This year they have been dangling a carrot in front of me, convincing me we have a legitimate shot of actually being division champs. Until last Sunday.
We still have control of our destiny, St Louis is preparing for us. Then Tennessee, then Oakland. Whether or not we win one or all three of those games, I can be comfortable knowing the Chiefs got better this year. For that reason alone, I am optimistic about next season.
Pioli and company have grand plans for the Chiefs. If results mean anything, they are ahead of schedule. In the meantime. I'm not going to be tempted by any dangling carrots.
Go Chiefs. -
December 14, 2010 - Andy says:
What do you guys think about this theroy? i think they were wore out from practicing in pads for 3 weeks they had nothing left, i hope he gives them a little rest this week for this playoff run.
December 14, 2010 - Edward says:
As fans we need be patient. This isn't a Super bowl contender but it is a playoff contender. We will make playoffs probably win one game. Its a process and as fans we can't rush it. This team is a year or 2 away from being a super bowl contender. Give players, organization, and coaches credit know but a select few thought they would be where they are now
December 14, 2010 - Flyboy26 says:
Good post Jimbo. Like you, I had visions of sugar plums dancing in my head after the first quarter of the season. The vision was dimmer after the 1st Denver game and totally obscurred after Sunday. El Cid made some valid posts as well. Even Dan's points kind of make you wonder. Haley has said that he wants to instill good character and stress intelligent play in his team. The way that Sunday's game was planned and played, on both sides of the ball, showed the exact opposite of what he has been preaching. Haley, Weis, and Crennel let the team down completely. It almost reminded me of how the US fought the VN war. I kept thinking as I watched the game and listened to the radio (thank God I could manually sync the two), that coordinators would adjust. But they didn't adjust, they just gave up.
Where is the genius that many of us hoped for with the hiring of Crennel and Weis?

Question for Bob:
What notable coaches on the current staff for the Chiefs do you believe won't be back in 2011 and why? Same question for players not returning. Thanks.

I know they keep harping on fundamentals, and they should BUT I think he's got to ease up some to let them freshen' up a bit. We have a lot of rookies that have got to have hit the wall a bit. Likewise, some of our older guys have to recoup some. With only 3 to go, I think they've got to get a little more fresh because sometimes the mind will say "go" & the body says "no"…

Haley's "this is not a good team" is true but pure copout. As for last sunday, "no" team showed up and did anyone else notice Haley's demeanor all thru the game. NOTHING, he just stood there. Folks, that is not our HC. He foams at the mouth, chews on the almighty, he does not stand there like a old time pro coach.
As for Edwards "patience", well buddy, next year the Chiefs are going to play a "good" conference and, even with a healthy Cassel, may get more than their share of losses. Add the less than stellar 09 draft and the fact the 10 draft is regressing, the team could take a huge step backwards. That is why I want to be like the vulture, to heck with WAITING for something to die, let's go kill something. This year was and could be something special to comfort us during next years growing pains but it is slipping away and the coaches seem to have no idea what to do.

Do coaches look at tapes from other games? or just the ones from their own games? I just looked at some beautifully designed play that put receivers like Andre Johnson creating spaces for running backs or TEs, if Bowe is being shut down he must be getting some attention from defenders that can be creating space for others to make a play, where is that?
