|Re: Hoke
The part about coming to us in our hour of need and taking the job without taking about the money is a pretty generous way to describe it. Sorry, the guy did not bring us puppies and hugs after grandma died or even help us move a couch. He took a job that was a vastly superior position in his profession to the one he held previously. His new job paid millions of dollars more per year than his old one. I don't doubt that it is his dream job or that he is a decent enough person but his choice to take the choice was hardly some charitable or magnanimous act. It was a no-brainer career decision. He was the head coach at fricking San Diego State. I mean, come on.
As far as the money, he was always gonna get paid a shit ton of money at Michigan and a hell of a lot more than he made at San Diego State. He is making $4.1 million this year. I mean, even if we assume that "aw shucks I didn't agree to the salary before taking the job" story is true, everyone involved knew at the least that he was gonna make a lot more bank than the $700k/year that San Diego State was paying him. So yeah, maybe he took the job without knowing whether he was gonna make 4 times what he made before or 5 time or 6 times. But everyone knew it was a raise that was gonna mean at least an extra million per year.
I don't really think it sucks all that much for him. He got to have his dream job for four years. He had tons of resources at his disposal to have an opportunity to succeed. He got paid, enough to never work again if he chooses. He'll be fired and that's that but overall getting his shot and $$$ is really not such a bad outcome. I am vastly more sympathetic to the players who have to go through more turmoil and to the current students who are increasly disconnected from the football program due to the emphasis on $ over loyalty and the lack of on-field success.
Whatever. Hopefully they get the next hire right and that it doesnt drag out like The Process.

|Not sure that one bad year
Not sure that one bad year actually constitutes a failure. Carroll was fired because his team finished the season poorly after starting 6-5. OK. But one season is a pretty short leash and limited data. Also, when you consider that that was a mediocre roster that went 4-28 over the next two years after Carroll, I'm not sure that one 6-10 season looks so bad.

You give a guy a second chance, not because you necessarily expect him to take advantage of it, but because helping college age men grow into productive adults who are responsible, learn from their mistakes, and don't have problems with drugs/alcohol is important. It's too bad that Stonum didn't take advantage but it was still a worthwhile risk to take even if it didn't work out. There are limits to what you can do, of course, but giving up on a person too soon can also be a missed opportunity to help someone. I thought Hoke handled that one just fine. Ditto Hagerup. Opportunities to come back but a severe season long punishment sounds right to me.
|1 year 19 weeks ago
As a side note, this leaves us with one less scholarship for this class since Hagerup effectively becomes a redshirt junior for 2013 rather than a senior and will now be on the 2014 roster. Assuming that he does not screw up again and that he is retaining his scholarship status.

I understand it is crazy to text/call during an interview.
But I'm not about to leave my $500 phone with all sorts of info and data on it in my car when there are hundreds of thousands (or millions?) of phones being stolen every year in this country. Employers expect you to protect their property, proprietary and sensitive info and in fact my employer has policies about phones and laptops. For example, if I leave my hotel room to go eat dinner I am supposed to have my laptop attached by a security cable or in a safe to protect it. In turn, I am going to protect my property and data and keep my phone in my pocket where it is more secure than it is in my car. Of course it will be turned off and unused during an interview.

It's pretty clear that regardless of whether the Mastrov/Ranadine group or the Hansen group winds up owning the team it is going to be sold. Neither the Maloofs nor their front office is going to have anything to do with that team for much longer so that is not a concern at all. But yeah, the players on the team are not an ideal group to be around for Trey.
|1 year 21 weeks ago
I'm not sure how they are going to score at an efficient clip. I mean they will be a good team and maybe a great defensive team but without Thomas they don't really have too many guys who can score much on their own. We'll see. Maybe Ross steps it up. Or perhaps Scott or Thompson.
I think most folks will have MSU, U of M and Indiana predicted ahead of them anyway. Iowa is debateable I guess but I like them a lot for next year. They return basically everybody and they lost a lot of close games this year, 7 games by 4 points or less so they may have been better than their record indicated. Kenpom even has them finishing as #23 with their NIT run.

That's not really true. If you play 8 games with a 14 team league then you play 6 division and 2 non-division games every year. Which means that you do play every single team every 3.5 years so with a 4 year player's career they would see every other school. The only way you don't see all of the other teams in 4 years if you repeat home and away with schools over 3 years rather than just playing one or the other and then playing different schools the next year.
It is true that you would not travel to other schools during each players career you wind up only playing 4 road games against those 7 teams in 4 years so they never get to visit 3 of those other 7 schools. Though I can't think of a reason that not visiting another campus really matters as they don't do much more than play and hang out at the hotel on road trips.
|1 year 21 weeks ago
|Each team...
That doesn't quite add up. We play 3 games a year against the other division so 63 games in 21 years. You have us only playing 61 games.
Let's see, from the Purdue perspective they play only 2 games each year against the other 6 teams in the other division [since 1 of their 3 non-division games is tied to Indiana]. So 1 in 3 years we will be playing against Purdue so 7 in 21 years. But there are two leftover games. I believe that just means that we will play 9 against 4 of those teams in a 21 year cycle and 10 against 2 of those teams.
I think the way it will work is that they schedule out Purdue and Indiana in 3 year cycles and then repeat with the home games flipped away. Then you start filling in the other teams randomly or whatever but because of the Purdue Indiana thing you will start to repeat 2 of the 3 teams that you played in Year 1 in Year 3 but will not see the 4th team that you played in Year 1 until Year 4. I think. Might have to fire up Excel to verify but expansion will change it again anyway. The actual frequency of playing each of the other 6 teams should be 4/9ths of every years. Take 6 teams * (4/9) = 24/9 + (3/9)ths for Purdue = 27/9 = 3 games a year. So it is like a 9 year cycle. Or really an 18 year cycle if you count home and away in even quantities. I think. We play Purdue 6 times in 18 years and play the other 6 teams 8 times in 18 years. That adds up. So a home game against Purdue every 6 years and a home game against Nebraska (or the other teams) every 4.5 years.

I don't think Izzo and MSU are on the decline although I certainly think that things are more competitive now. I think what Izzo really did was take advantage of a lull when we were down, Indiana was no longer able to get top guys under Knight, OSU was not as good as they are with Matta etc. Had that very successful 3 year period from 99-01. The competition is better now and they won't have a run like that again. But they can still be a good team/program.
As you look at their roster though, you see a real good team next year. But I don't see much after 2014. Payne and Appling will be gone. Probably Harris goes pro after next year as he can be in the lottery. Dawson may turn into a scorer but besides that I don't know that guys like Trice, Valentine, Costello, Guana, Byrd etc have really shown much. Then these other 2 new guys who were clearly Izzo's plan B. They're young and they'll develop but their freshmen and sophomore and recruits don't catch your eye and make you think they will ever be first team all-B1G or anything. On the one hand, you can play young guys right away and reload quickly these days, as our team shows, but looking at their roster it also looks like their talent necessitates having a killer class in 2014 unless they want a dropoff over the next few years. Huge recruiting pressure for them in this class.

|Heathcote 2.0
Izzo is way better than Heathcote. Heathcote won ~53% of his B1G games and won exactly half of them if we exclude tthe 2 years with Magic. Izzo has won like 70% of his B1G games and while Michigan's troubles certainly helped him build MSU up he's still way above the level they were at before. Even now, with us on the rise they are a top 10-15 caliber team. You're either shortchanging Izzo or else forgetting how much mediocrity Sparty had under Heathcote. Probably the latter. In the 80s Heathcote's Big 10 record was better than 10-8 just 1 time in 10 seasons and they went 6-12 or worse for 5 of those 10 seasons. There was a lot of bad Sparty basketball in between Magic and Mateen Cleaves.

|Ryan Evans...
Reggie Evans was a grit/rebounding/defense type power forward for Iowa back in the day who managed to scrape out a surprisingly long NBA career for a guy with limited offensive skills.
Ryan Evans is a FT jump shooting Badger who takes a ton of shots for a guy who is bad at shooting the basketball.

It's true that most college teams only have 1 big but I am not sure that I view having 2 as creating a poor matchup. Matchups go both ways. If another team is playing only one big then that means that either McGary or Morgan can post up and rebound against a non-big. That's a huge advantage for us on offense though it obviously presents a challenge on D for McGary.
A lot of this discussion is general and about total minutes but in reality matchups, foul trouble and injuries are really going to decide this and it will vary by game. If say one of Irvin/Stauskas/LeVert were injured then you have to go big. Or if McGary is in foul trouble then you go small because you can't play 2 of the other bigs since they are not skilled enough. If you are playing the new look Pitino-pressing-Gophers then you go small for ball handling but if you are playing Sparty and don't want to get killed on the glass then you go big. Etc etc.
In an ideal world I think it would be great if you could mix in the zone. But I think again we are looking at a lineup with 9 of your 11 guys being Freshmen or Sophomores. Until they put in the time to really be better at man to man and to be stronger and more physical I think your practice time is better spent towards perfecting your base D instead of learning zone.
|1 year 21 weeks ago
I think you will see a lot of tall ball. Partly this is a function of roster construction. With Morgan, Horford, McGary and Bielfeldt you are cramming 4 guys into one position if you stay small and then 7 guys for the other 4 spots. I also have a sneaking suspicion that playing these guys at 3/4 may have been agreed to by the coaches as an inducement to get them to come back for another year. As far as spacing, you can still do a lot of the things that we do with I do think it is essential that McGary hit that 12 foot jumper if he is going to play the 4 but I think he has shown some flashes that he can do that. And pass out of the post. It does put a lot of pressure on him but he has the skills to make it work. So much of what we have been doing the last few years anyway is just ball screen stuff and that can still happen with tall ball.
Rebounding is also a big part of this and that did not come up much in this article except the point about OSU having everyone rebound. Well, that is part of how the lineups and the hope for defensive improvement tie together. A higher DREB % will be one of the ways we can improve our D and the bigger lineup should offer that. Basically we are trading Morgan's rebounding for Stauskas'/Irvin's rebounding. We finished 7th in the B1G in OREB and 8th in DREB in conference play and we all saw Behanon abuse GR3. Even if our eFG D is not much better we can be a better defensive team if we limit 2nd chances.
Not too worried about GR3's low usage and stepping up into a bigger role. He was very efficient in what he did do and Burke and Hardaway were taking over half of the shots anyway. He was not assertive because he didn't really need to be but I think he still has the game to maintain that efficiency even with higher usage.
|1 year 21 weeks ago
Well we have two open spots so he could add one player and still have room for McLimans. We need practice players too. This is McLimans looking for playing time.
We're fine for 2013 at the 2/3 with Irvin, LeVert, Stauskas and GR3 at the 2/3. More guys than minutes, barring injury. You can assume that GR3 is leaving after this year for roster purposes but even still the solution to that is to add a Booker caliber 2014 2/3 rather than a last minute guy who is a role player like we did with LeVert last year.
|1 year 21 weeks ago
We can play Irvin at the 2 and Stauskas at 3 when GR3 slides to the 4 and we go small for short periods of the game. Or when GR3 is on the bench. However, for the 20+ minutes that GR3 is on the court and playing the 3, per Beilein's own comments, then yes Stauskas/Irvin will both be playing the same position at SG. Not sure why this was upvoted since it is incorrect, at least for the majority of the 2013-2014 season.

I'll bet you a shiny penny that we are @Syracuse. A Final Four rematch with the home court tilting the storyline towards a chance for the Orangemen to get revenge for that loss.
|1 year 22 weeks ago
I think mostly we are in agreement. My guess is that Beilfeldt only gets in during garbage time or if someone is injured or in foul trouble but that will happen. I'd save Donnal's eligibility if he is only going to get a sprinkling of time and redshirt him.
Basically, you are seeing LeVert get more minutes in a smaller type lineup with GR3 at the 4 versus having more minutes with Morgan/Horford on the court at the same time as McGary. I hear you and I think you'll see some of both depending a lot on matchups. You go big against Sparty probably for example so that they don't slaughter us on the boards but against the press that MN will now play you use LeVert more and play with GR3 at the 4. Foul trouble and injuries will affect lineups. And there will also be situational stuff where you go small with a lead at end of game for ball handling and FT shooting or big for defense and rebounding.
|1 year 22 weeks ago
|5th Year
Agree with this for the most part. Attracting a 5th year will be tough too. I still think that if you can get a 5th year then maybe you take one. Even if the guy just sits on the bench, it gives you a practice player and perhaps some leadership skills. Also, yeah there really aren't minutes if guys are healthy. Probably one injury even doesn't matter as minutes would go to LeVert or just different lineups but it provides some insurance in case you are unfortunate enough to have two injuried guys. All you are really losing by doing so is the scholarship money so there is little downside. There's gotta be some combo guard who avged 8 points a game in the MAC or Horizon and would be willing to mostly ride the pine in exchange for the chance to be on a B1G team that made it to the Final Four last year and has dreams of doing so again this year.
|1 year 22 weeks ago
One thing I really like is that this is a bigger lineup. Our PGs remain 6 footers but all of your 2/3 guys are now 6'6" with Stauskas/Irvin/GR3. Then you've got two legit sized bigs when McGary is on the floor. With size and athleticism, I really expect to see the best rebounding team that we've had under Beilein.
I expect GR3 to be assertive and a first team all conference player. You could see the skill in games where he showed out like South Dakota State. Next year he'll have to be more aggressive.
I think the main concern is shot creation off the dribble with a finishing threat. We've got shooters and to some extent GR3 and Stauskas and even occasionally McGary can take it to the rim. All need to work on their finishing. But will Walton, and to a lesser extent Irvin, be able to create penetration and then kick it out for 3s? If so then we will be really good. Albrecht can shoot and can penetrate but I'm not sure he'll be able to finish off the bounce that much which means that people will not help to him. Need a guy who can finish and force help and then hit the open man.
This team is one, especially if Stauskas puts in the effort, that can be better defensively. We'll miss Burke obviously and Hardaway but it will probably be easier to make up for their losses on offense if we have more active defenders.
Can't wait until the season starts.
|1 year 22 weeks ago
These are the positions they will play in the league so both are probably cool with this. I'm not too surprised. There were some serious tradeoffs with rebounding and defense that the typical Beilein lineup tried to offset with ball handling and shooting. But as the talent level rises those compromises become less necessary. It was obvious that physical teams gave our small lineup a lot of problems. If Beilein has proven anything it is that he is able to adapt and be flexible. Showed it in changing assistants and in recruiting and in moving to man to man and now in going bigger. GR3 losing the rebounding battle to Behanon in the 2nd half showed the limitations of this lineup.
Also I think that this recognizes that with the current roster construction without Burke/Hardaway has a lot of bigs. If you play GR3 at the 4 with Donnal you have Beilfeldt, Morgan, Horford and McGary all playing at the 5. We'll still see smaller lineups sometimes when McGary is out of the game.
Winner is clearly Morgan as he now can start at the 5 and get his 20-25 minutes. On the other hand, hard to see where Caris fits in for next year if Irvin is as good as advertised and everyone is healthy.
Bearing in mind that Beilein's starters traditionally avg over 30 minutes I think we will see something like:
Walton 25/Albrecht 15
Stauskas 30/LeVert 5/Irvin 5
GR3 20/Irvin 20
McGary 30/GR3 10
Morgan 25/Horford 15
I suspect Walton starts at about 20 minutes but will be up to 30 by the end of the season. I think you redshirt Donnal and go small when McGary is out. Can't play of 2 of Morgan/Horford/Bielfeldt simultaneously as there is not enough skill there. But I guess the choice between Donnal at the 4 and sliding GR3 back there in a small lineup all depends on how good Donnal is. I have a sneaking suspicion that you are better off going small and having Stauskas/Irvin on the floor at the same time rather than Donnal on the floor.

The university's culture may not change but the 10 year ban and disassociation ends a month or two. The new president/administration will not be restricted by that NCAA ruling.
Also, the president may well be an outsider or even if it is an insider it will probably be someone who wasn't very involved on the athletic side of the school. So the perspective will likely be different. Time heals all wounds etc etc. MSC was around since 2002 including the end of the investigation, the sanctions period when other athletes suffered for other people's transgressions and the period during which the program was struggling which a lot of people blamed on those 4. Those experiences would likely shape her views in a way that is probably less favorable to a reconciliation than would be the perspective of someone new who hadn't been around during that period. The scandal will probably be less personal and more historical for the new President.

Actually his FT shooting was down a couple % points and he got to the line a lot less often. And while his total assists was up, his assist rate was actually down from 14.2% to 13.0% this year. That reflects a lot of other buckets for Stauskas/McGary/GR3 that were being created by Burke. Anyway, Hardaway pretty much had the same season as last year except that he shot 37% from 3 instead of 28%. All of the other differences in Hardaway's final line are pretty minor differences.
|1 year 22 weeks ago
|Most Improved
Yep. Hardaway was better than last year by a hair but the truth is that Burke was the most improved player. With 6 freshmen eligibles and 2 seniors who didn't play much that really only left Burke, Hardaway, Morgan and Horford. Morgan was injured and less effective when he did play this year. I can understand giving it to the less deserving Hardaway over Burke I guess just because Burke had already won every POY award on the planet. To me, even though his year was more of an injury comeback than an improvement, Horford would have been a worthy choice for that one because at least he played and contributed this year, unlike last year.

He looks like a 2/3 naturally. He doesn't seem quite as muscular or athletic or GR3 and even GR3 had some definite matchup and rebounding shortcomings.
But where the suggestion of Irvin playing out of position at the 4 gets serious is if GR3 leaves. In particular, what if Hardaway stays and GR3 leaves? Then you've got Hardaway, Stauskas and LeVert at the 2/3 but the 4 is real iffy. Donnal has the closest skillset to the ideal Beilein 4 but is he good enough to play major minutes, especially as a freshman? If he is OK, but if not then your choices are either an undersized Irvin playing out of position at the 4 or going with two bigs and McGary at the high post while Morgan/Horford/Bielfeldt try to set tons of screens and get boards. Would be a better rebounding team but you lose skill if those guys are getting more minutes. Tricky.
Or what if McGary and GR3 both left? I don't think you can go with 2 of Bielfeldt, Morgan and Horford on the floor simultaneously as there is just not enough offensive skill. So again it gets down to Donnal versus Irvin at the 4. Donnal fits the position better but Irvin is almost certainly the better player and more useful on offense. Actually, they might both have to play some at the 4. At that point, we are starting to get thin if those two are gone.
Really this is not so much about Irvin as it is about whether GR3 (+ McGary) comes back. And then it is also about either finding a true stretch 4 who can play Beilein's offense but also has the size/athleticism to defend and rebound better than some smaller guys have in the best. Or whether Beilein adapts again and goes big. Or whether we sacrifice on the defensive end/boards at the 4 to get the best players all on the floor. Hopefully GR3 comes back and makes this all moot.

Best of luck to him. He's going to be the first M player in quite a while who is not a fringe NBA guy and I look forward to seeing him play in the NBA. As much as I would love to see him play in a Michigan uniform again, this is clearly the best decision for Trey.

He's not going to say jack about OSU violations or anything about that.
Ask him what he thinks about the NCAA concept of "amateurism" and the O'Bannon lawsuit? It would be hilarious and ironic if he sided with the Emmerts of the world.
The stories suggestion is a good one. He won't be telling any OSU recruiting stories but I wouldn't be surprised if you can get him to tell some funny recruiting stories about other things. Ask him if he has heard anything about all of the rumors about Ole Mi$$.
If you really want to be ballsy, get a pic of Clarett from the 2002 MNC game and ask him to autograph it.

News Industry minister calls for resignation of head of state export bank
Czech Minister of Industry and Trade Jan Mládek has called on the head of the state bank for promoting exports to immediately resign. Mládek said in news release Wednesday that the head of the Czech Export Bank, Jiří Klumpar, had overstepped his managerial competences. The minister added in a news release Wednesday that instead of getting to grips with problems at the bank, Klumpar had proposed that a new bank be created out of part of the existing institution without consulting anyone else about such a move. Mládek said he should resign before the bank's supervisory board kicked him out. The export bank has been investigated by police in connected with suspect loans made in particular to Russian companies.

Statute of Zátopek unveiled at Zlín sports stadium
A statue of the famous Czech long-distance runner Emil Zátopek has been unveiled at a sports stadium in Zlín, south Moravia. The four-time Olympic champion used to run at the Stadium of Youth and met his wife Dana at the venue. The life-sized bronze sculpture, which is by Radim Hanke, depicts Zátopek running in his trademark pained-looking style and stands metres from the stadium's 400m track.
State attorney demands 10 years for Janoušek in appeal proceeding
A state attorney has requested a 10-year jail term for Roman Janoušek if the controversial businessman is found guilty of attempted murder in connection with a hit-and-run incident. Speaking at the close of an appeal hearing in Prague, the state attorney said Mr. Janoušek should get seven years in prison if found guilty of grievous bodily harm. In April a court sentenced the businessman to three years for grievous bodily harm over an incident in 2012 in which he knocked down another driver with whom he had become involved in an altercation. Both the state attorney and Mr. Janoušek appealed that verdict. The hit-and-run came days after a newspaper published transcriptions of wiretaps giving the impression that he held strong influence over politicians and officials in Prague.
State of emergency called in mudslide-affected villages
The governor of South Moravia Michal Hašek has called a state of emergency in two villages in the Břeclav region where there is a continuing danger of mudslides in the wake of heavy rain. Ten families had to be evacuated in the town of Strachotín over the weekend as a debris flow came dangerously close to their homes. In the town a Dolní Vestonice a mudslide necessitated the evacuation of a campsite. One woman was reported injured and two caravans were damaged. Emergency crews have been working to secure the areas.

Police have charged 18 people with manipulating public tenders in river basin management, the daily Lidové noviny reports. Among those charged are high placed public officials and construction company managers who are suspected of manipulating seven tenders worth over 660 million crowns on work on a stretch of the Vltava River in southern Bohemia.
Police pursue speeding driver through Liberec
Police in Liberec pursued a speeding driver going at nearly 200km/h on Monday and were forced to fire several warning shots into the air before making the car draw to a halt. The young woman behind the wheel was on drugs, did not have a driver's licence and was driving a borrowed car. She also had drugs in her possession. The incident is being investigated.
Foreign Ministry ascertaining how many Czech expats in Ukraine want repatriation
The head of Czech expat associations in Ukraine Ludmila Muchinova has said she knows of only four families who are interested in repatriation to their old homeland. Mrs. Muchinova met with Czech Deputy Foreign Minister Rudolf Jindrák on Monday to discuss the situation after President Miloš Zeman last week asked Interior Minister Milan Chovanec to meet the request of 40 families for repatriation. Ms. Muchinova said that while Czech expats in Ukraine were afraid of how the conflict might develop only those in the Donbas area were directly affected by it. The Czech Foreign Ministry has said it is ready to give Czech expats assistance locally where needed.
Roma women survey
Romany women in the Czech Republic generally have a low level of education, make on average 10,000 crowns a month and live in a rented flat with their family, according to the outcome of a Charles University survey on the life of Romany women. The vast majority marry young –between the age of 18 and 21, close to 40 percent of them have three or more children and singlehandedly shoulder the burden of looking after the household. The vast majority said they had faced discrimination when looking for a job or flat.
British cancer patient Ashya King undergoes first treatment at Prague's Proton Centre
Five-year old British cancer patient Ashya King underwent his first treatment at Prague's Proton Therapy Centre on Monday. The therapy that he is undergoing uses beams of protons rather than high energy X-rays as in conventional radiotherapy. The former can be directed at a tumour with immense precision and unlike conventional treatments cause less damage to surrounding bodily tissue reducing the chance that the patient might develop secondary cancer later in life. Ashya will undergo a series of thirty sessions over the next six weeks.
Czech Republic offering to train Iraqi security forces
The Czech Republic will offer Iraq help in training the country's security forces, Czech Foreign Minister Lubomir Zaorálek said at a conference in Paris aimed at coordinating international action in tackling the threat from Islamic State militants. Earlier this year the Czech government approved the sale of 15 L-159 training fighter jets to Iraq and the Czech military will send the Kurdish forces munitions including bullets, grenades, and anti-tank shells no longer needed by the Czech Army. The government is also providing humanitarian aid.
Young man detained with kilogram of crystal methamphetamine
Police are reported to have detained a young man with a kilogram of crystal methamphetamine at the main railway station in Olomouc. The twenty-one-year old had the drugs stuffed in a backpack and claimed he had no idea what he was carrying. He told the police he had been offered five thousand crowns to take the backpack from Prague to Olomouc where someone would pick it up. According to detectives the drugs have a street value of approximately one million crowns. The man has been charged with drug-trafficking for which he could get a prison sentence of up to ten years.

Best and Worst Player
Best Player
Goal Choice
A. VidalJuventus Position: Midfielder
Worst Player
Goal Choice
David LuizChelsea Position: Defender
Team Ratings
G. Buffon
On the occasions when his team's high pressing left him exposed, he made smart saves to deny Hazard and Mata. Commanded his penalty area superbly.
S. Lichtsteiner
Attacked with real intent down the right flank and only a superb reflex save from Cech prevented him from opening the scoring early on.
A. Barzagli
Defended with aggression and conviction, ensuring that Chelsea got no change from long, hopeful balls upfield.
L. Bonucci
Struggled with the fluidity of Chelsea's attack and resorted to cynical fouls when his lack of pace was exposed.
G. Chiellini
Occasionally found it difficult to deal with Hazard's pace and trickery but, on the whole, marshalled his defence well.
A. Pirlo
Controlled proceedings from midfield, regularly escaping the attentions of Oscar and exerting much more of an influence than in the game at Stamford Bridge.
K. Asamoah
Kept good width on the left, attacking whenever he got the chance and regularly clipping in dangerous crosses. Showed great awareness to pick out Vidal for the decisive second.
A. Vidal
A bundle of energy in the centre of the park, working tirelessly from box to box and keeping the ball well for his team. Deserved his goal, even if it came courtesy of a deflection.
C. Marchisio
Showed, aggression, energy and poise in the midfield, and his well-timed runs into the penalty area caused panic in the Chelsea defence.
F. Quagliarella
Like Vucinic, made intelligent runs in the final third to create space for midfield runners, and showed great improvisation for his goal.
M. Vučinić
Showed some neat close control and clever movement, but his finishing was tame.
P. Čech
Made some superb stops as his side largely weathered what seemed an unending storm for the first hour. Beaten by deflections for two Juve goals and made a strange decision to rush out for the third. By then, though, the game was already over.
David Luiz
His usual confident self on the ball but his positioning once again left something to be desired and his general demeanour was not of someone who fully appreciated the seriousness of the situation.
A. Cole
Made a heroic last-ditch clearance to stop Juve heading into the break with a two-goal lead but his efforts were ultimately in vain.
G. Cahill
Little better than his defensive partner at stemming the tide of Juve goal attempts and the movement of Quagliarella and Vucinic troubled him all evening.
Selected to provide an extra shield for Ivanovic as well as contrbuting to Blues attacks, he did neither, and was anonymous until his withdrawal for Moses on the hour.
B. Ivanović
His decision-making was suspect all evening and the fact that most of the hosts' success came down his flank says everything about his performance.
E. Hazard
Unlucky to miss a golden opportunity early on and worked tirelessly for the cause up front alone but was starved of service after the break.
Looked uncomfortable when penned in around his own penalty area, making several questionable decisions on the ball, and being given precious little opportunity to showcase his blistering pace from midfield.
His run early on to set up Hazard's chance was a delight but thereafter he faded to the periphery.
J. Obi Mikel
Looked slow to make decisions on the ball, but that might also be explained by the fact that he had no options.
Buzzed around expectantly on the halfway line and in the final third but, all too often, the play never reached him.
V. Moses
Showed energy and enthusiasm when he replaced Azpilicueta with half an hour left, but a minute after his arrival Vidal ended the match as a contest.
Fernando Torres
Replaced Mikel on 71 minutes with the game already lost. Was anonymous again. He should not be judged on tonight but on the string of listless performances which led to him relegated to the bench in favour of a midfielder.

Icke, David In March 1991, a former U.K. soccer star, spokesperson for the Green party, and broadcaster named David Icke called a press conference in London to announce a number of upcoming world-shaking events revealed to him personally, he said, by Socrates, "the Godhead," Jesus Christ, and various other spirits. They had chosen him, he said, to be the "channel for the Christ spirit." The press paid close attention and published lengthy interviews with Mr. Icke.
Mr. Icke declared that "disruptive thought vibrations" originating with the Sicilian Mafia and the Tiananmen Square massacre in China had combined to set in motion a cataclysm that would first be evidenced when Mount Rainier in the United States would explode. No date was given. This would be followed, he said, by the complete disappearance of New Zealand, the collapse of the Channel Tunnel, the fall of Naples Cathedral, and an unspecified failure of the Texas oil fields.
These events would be brought about by the "archangel Ak-Taurus," who, he said, had previously managed to thwart an attempt by the citizens of Atlantis to avoid the submersion of that civilization. The Atlanteans, said Mr. Icke, had been urged to tune in to the "power point" at Stonehenge, but they did not heed the warning and were thus destroyed. He also revealed that both King Arthur and Merlin, along with the archangels, have now turned off the power at Stonehenge so that Ak-Taurus cannot use it against mankind. What a relief!
By Christmas 1991, Mr. Icke predicted, Cuba, Greece, the Isle of Arran, the cliffs of Kent, and Teeside would be hit by a great earthquake (8.0 on the Richter scale) that would submerge them.
Mr. Icke has since stated that at the time he made these predictions he knew they were crazy. I have no disagreement with that evaluation.

Understanding Rifling in Firearms
Rifling is a term that refers to the grooves machined into the barrel of a firearm to impart a spin on the bullet during flight. This spin helps stabilize the bullet thereby improving accuracy and increasing the distance traveled. The raised ridges traveling along the length of the barrel are called lands and the grooves are the spaces between. These lands and grooves also have a "twist" or slight rotation to the left or right (depending on make and model) which creates the spin. The number, width, direction of twist, and rate of twist can vary between makes and models. The degree of this twist is called the "twist rate" and is expressed by how many inches it takes the projectile to make one full revolution of the rifling. For example, a barrel with a 1:12 rate of twist means the bullet will make one full revolution every 12 inches of the rifling.
Rifling is found in most modern rifles and handguns (even muzzle loaders) with the exception of most shotguns which are referred to as "smoothbore". There are different methods for machining gun barrels but generally speaking, the tools that manufacturers use to create these lands and grooves leave unique marks (scratches) on the lands and grooves. As the bullet passes down the barrel the lands and grooves will replicate these marks onto the projectile. Firearms examiners evaluate the rifling in two main ways.
First, by looking at the gross physical features (called General Rifling Characteristics; GRC) of the lands and grooves (number, width, and direction of twist) the examiner may be able to eliminate certain makes and models of firearms. The FBI maintains a database of GRC from firearms all over the world which is updated once a year and distributed to the firearms examiner community. From this an examiner can create a list of possible gun models that share the same GRC as the crime scene bullet. When a known bullet is submitted to the lab the examiner can compare the presence and location of these rifling marks on the crime scene bullet to the known standard to determine if that gun was the one that fired the bullet. I'll have more on this process later as it is much more detailed than what I have allowed for here.
Suffice it to say that firearms examiners use these marks to include or exclude a gun as having fired a particular bullet. If you want to put something interesting into your story choose a gun that has unusual rifling marks or general rifling characteristics. This may be from a rare or antique firearm, an after-market barrel, or a custom-made one. Your local gunsmith may be able to point you in a good direction. Then your characters can spend a few scenes trying to unravel the mystery of what kind of gun was used in the shooting. Another thing you might consider is using a gun in which these rifling marks have been damaged or destroyed intentionally by the criminal (like using a drill bit to mar the barrel). Use your imagination and have some fun with it.

I would like to ask permission to use your image of the rifling grooves in a rifle barrell to teach high school students about the way angular momentum maintains a bullet's direction. Thank you for your help.

Children have no real sense of how life can flip. School perpetrates an illusion of stasis. If you are 15, and mostly hating the social world of your high school, it is incredibly easily to conclude that your life will always be that way. Childhood is so closed-off and institutionalized. It is a prison. Self-esteem, in the main, comes from three places—school, sports, and the opposite sex. If you fail at those things you are likely to have a harder time. Worse, it's easy to conclude that this is your life, that whatever you're experiencing is somehow a sign-posts for the rest of years. If that is the case, why not end it?
The tragedy is that childhood—and specifically young adulthood—is such a slender, ridiculously small sliver, of the human lifespan. It's sad to think of people who only get to see that."

The condition of an 11-year-old boy who was seriously injured Friday when he was struck by a Metra train has improved, according to an official for the school district where the boy is enrolled.
Dominic Szymanski, a student at The Hough School in northwest suburban Barrington, still needs several more surgeries, though his condition has "stabilized," said Barrington 220 School District spokesman Jeff Arnett.
"Remarkably, he is in extremely good condition considering the gravity of the accident," Arnett said Saturday evening. "Very few people survive a train accident and he will survive. Doctors are fully confident."
The Union Pacific Northwest train was en route to Ogilvie Transportation Center in Chicago when it struck the boy about 6:05 p.m., Metra spokesman Tom Miller said.
Dominic was struck while crossing the tracks at Illinois Route 59, just north of Lake Cook Road, Barrington police said.
The extant of the boy's injuries are unclear at this time. Doctors, school district officials and Dominic's parents are closely guarding specifics of the boy's condition.
The school district scrubbed specific references to Dominic's injuries from its social media accounts because officials are afraid word of the boy's injuries could get back to Dominic and lower his morale, Arnett said.
"What we understand from the doctors and the family is that they are trying to keep him stable. There are some additional surgeries he has to undergo … (and) they don't want any news or information that may be upsetting to him to destabilize his condition," said Arnett.
"His condition is stable, but doctors now ask that the extent of his injuries remain discreet until he can be informed in a caring and careful way," Arnett wrote in a statement to District 220 parents.
Arnett is unsure if the boy was alone at the time he was injured, but several witnesses saw the accident unfold and rushed to his side to provide first aid until paramedics arrived.
Anna Shilov said her husband grabbed towels from Salon Shea — the salon across from Barrington Train Station where he works — and tended to the boy after a passerby ran into the business and sought his help.
Paramedics took the boy to Advocate Lutheran General Hospital where he remains.
Barrington police would not comment on the accident on Saturday.
Arnett said the greater Barrington community has been very supportive.
"It really been gratifying to watch that throughout the day," said Arnett.

-- HealthDay Staff
MONDAY, June 6 (HealthDay News) -- One of the first and largest
national studies of the behaviors of American high school students
finds that those who identify as gay, lesbian or bisexual are more
likely than their heterosexual peers to take unhealthy risks.
The study was conducted by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention and used national survey data from 2001-2009. It
found that rates of smoking, drinking or other drug use, risky
sexual behaviors, suicidal behaviors and violence were higher among
gay or bisexual teens than among their straight peers.
"This report should be a wake-up call for families, schools and communities that we need to do a much better job of supporting these young people. Any effort to promote adolescent health and safety must take into account the additional stressors these youth experience because of their sexual orientation, such as stigma, discrimination and victimization," Howell Wechsler, director of CDC's Division of Adolescent and School Health (DASH), said in an agency news release. "We are very concerned that these students face such dramatic disparities for so many different health risks."
The data comes from the national Youth Risk Behavior Surveys
conducted over the past decade in Connecticut, Delaware, Maine,
Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Vermont and Wisconsin and in six large
urban school districts -- Boston, Chicago, Milwaukee, New York
City, San Diego and San Francisco.
Besides gathering data on smoking, drinking and drug abuse, the
study also examined rates of school absenteeism due to "fear of
violence," condom use, physical fitness, good/poor diet or problems
with weight management, such as extended fasting to lose
The CDC found that gay or lesbian students' had higher
prevalence rates for seven of the 10 health risk categories --
violence, attempted suicide, smoking, drinking, other drug use,
risky sexual behaviors and weight management issues. Findings were
similar for bisexual students, the agency said.
"For youth to thrive in their schools and communities, they need to feel socially, emotionally and physically safe and supported," Laura Kann, chief of the Surveillance and Evaluation Research Branch at DASH, added in the news release. "Schools and communities should take concrete steps to promote healthy environments for all students, such as prohibiting violence and bullying, creating safe spaces where young people can receive support from caring adults, and improving health education and health services to meet the needs of lesbian, gay and bisexual youth."
The findings were published June 6 in the CDC's journal,
Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

Specialization: Postwar and contemporary art; American art and visual culture; new media practices; media theory.
Kevin Hatch received his MA from the University of Delaware in 2001 and his PhD from Princeton University in 2008, both in art history. He returned to Binghamton University in 2011, after previously serving as visiting assistant professor for the 2008-2009 academic year. Professor Hatch's teaching and research traverses the twentieth century, with particular attention paid to the intersections of art, cinema, and new media in the postwar period. His book Looking for Bruce Conner investigates Conner's enormously influential but insufficiently understood work while exploring his position on the geographical, cultural, and critical margins. Hatch's current book project, tentatively titled Rapture/Rupture: Art, Criticism, and the New-Media Sublime, investigates new media practices originating in the 1990s that trouble the outwardly stable categories of cinema and visual art. His research has been supported by a number of sources including the Henry Luce Foundation/American Council of Learned Societies.

Those Were the Days
I know it's been an abandoned eyesore for over a decade, but last night when I drove past the pile of rubble that had once been the best bar EVER - THE RUSH INN- in Mattawan, I shed a tear.
At the risk of sounding like a Toby Keith song, I love this bar. I have so many memories of the live music ( I love you , Los Bandits!), the dancing, "Slick" the bartender, the softball players, the awesome chicken sandwiches, and especially Santa throwing things down to the kids from the roof on Christmas Eve.
I don't know what the plan is for that plot of land, but it can never be as cool as THE RUSH INN.

Call of Duty 2 - 360 - Preview
The tank rumbles across the terrain, running over enemy soldiers and blasting other hostile metallic beasts that sit there trying to train on your moving machine. No stationary targets, this move and shoot, the only thing that impairs accuracy is the unevenness of the terrain …
The American soldiers are holding a slight edge in a quick-paced game of capture the flag. Sitting on a balcony, BAR with sniper scope in hand, waiting for that enemy soldier to come try to steal the American flag … hehe, here he comes. Scope on … he has no idea … BAM! Scratch one Nazi. … and there is another, sneaking through the park … BAM! Scratch two. Oops, grenade, too long in one spot. BAM! Scratch one American sniper.
Whether it is a rousing game of capture the flag, deathmatch or working through the single-player experience, Call of Duty 2 for the Microsoft Xbox 360 is one fine-looking game. The action is every bit as intense as its PC forefathers and cousin, and the graphics, aglow on a huge plasma screen, are just short of truly amazing. Why just short? They were expected to be good because this is high-def gaming.
Activision and Infinity Ward held a media event in San Francisco recently to show off both the PC and the 360 versions of the Call of Duty 2 title, and the game was everything expected and a little more. One level had a Russian soldier using an overhead pipe system to work behind German lines in a rail yard. A gaping hole in the pipe reveals soldiers below, sitting targets. The Russian soldier opens fire, which is – naturally – returned by the Nazis. The rusted pipe pops with holes punctured through by the bullets, slim streams of light filtering up.
CoD 2 is much bigger than the first title, estimated somewhere around 150% the size. Missions include vehicle and soldier missions, with each of the missions holding several objectives. But don't expect this to be a cake walk. The enemy AI is smart, understanding elements like suppression fire and cover.
The game's multiplayer action was solid. With the event set up the way it was, four players took part in the battles with the high-def screen split four ways. The size of the screen certainly helped although the controls, at this stage of the game's development, seemed a little less responsive than its PC counterpart.
The sound was robust and amply displayed in surround sound. The voices are spot on and though there is some repetition in phrases used, for the most part the game captures the essence of the time and circumstances.
Call of Duty 2 for the 360 is slated to release later this year.
