There are an estimated 600,000 unoccupied homes in England, according to a recent report from the Empty Homes Agency. In addition, it is estimated there is enough vacant commercial property to create a further 420,000 homes.
Further information:
Rise of risk management in real estate
Reasons why properties are left vacant vary – from owners being unable to find a tenant, to the need for substantial refurbishment before they can be sold or let. Occasionally, in areas where property prices are rising rapidly, commercial premises are left vacant to accumulate in value, because the costs of letting may actually outweigh the building's rental value.
Whatever the reason, vacant properties may carry additional risks for property owners, particularly when left empty for long periods of time. We examine some of the main risks below, and what your customers can do to mitigate them.
Although the Government does not keep official figures on the number of squatters in England, the most recent estimate, made by the Ministry of Justice in 2012, put the figure at around 20,000.
In 2012, a new law was introduced, making squatting in a residential property a criminal offence, punishable by up to six months in jail or a fine of up to £5,000.
However, squatting in commercial properties is not a crime and the process of evicting squatters using the civil courts can take several weeks and incur substantial legal costs. Evicting unlawful occupants can therefore be an expensive annoyance for commercial property owners.
Even if a property owner does manage to evict squatters, or if they have left voluntarily by the time the owner comes to sell or let their property, it is possible that significant damage may already have been caused, either by squatters or other trespassers.
Vacant properties can be at increased risk of crime. Theft is a significant risk, not just of contents but also of fixtures and fittings, such as pipework or boilers, which can be expensive to replace.
Another significant risk of damage in vacant premises is water damage. If a building is unoccupied for several months without regular inspections and maintenance, there is a significantly increased risk of water damage, for example from burst pipes, or a small water leak that goes undetected and becomes more serious.
Under the Defective Premises Act 1972 and Occupiers Liability Act 1984, property owners have a duty of care to protect anybody who sets foot in a vacant property (including estate agents, surveyors, members of the emergency services, trespassers and vandals) – from hazards or defects that might cause them harm.
If somebody was injured, or a neighbouring property suffered damage, as a result of a defect in a vacant building, a legal claim could be made against the owner.
So, what should property owners do to lessen the risks outlined above?
The first step should be to carry out a thorough risk assessment. The nature of this appraisal will vary depending on the type of property, but it should cover:
Security should be a top priority. This means installing good quality locks and burglar alarms, and also considering additional measures such as mobile security cameras. Owners should also ensure a basic level of maintenance of their properties, including removing anything that is likely to give a building the appearance of being uncared for and therefore unoccupied, such as fly posters and graffiti.
Other basic measures that can reduce vacant property risk include:
You should make your customers aware of these risks and help them develop robust plans for managing their vacant properties.
Zurich is the only insurer to offer unlawful occupation cover as standard, as part of our Real Estate insurance proposition. Zurich can also provide additional services where needed; we have a team of Risk Engineers who can give property owners more detailed guidance on how to mitigate the risks of their entire portfolio, including any vacant properties.
To find out more about how we can help your property-owning customers, speak to your usual Zurich contact.

Uh oh–will we see Lady Gaga in tears?
After 10 months of dating, Lady Gag and Taylor Kinney (Yes the Vampire Diaries beauty) are on a "break."
Sources say that Lady Gaga isn't too depressed from losing her handsome arm candy; apparently he wasn't that great of a boyfriend. She says that he was too "all about himself" and didn't completely "get Gaga." The killer smile and hot body wasn't enough to keep this relationship going!
And Gaga will be too busy with her career anyways, especially with her upcoming "Born This Way Ball" world tour. That's 110 days on the road and focusing on her singing and of course, her little monster fans.
Stay strong, Lady Gaga!
What do you think about their breakup? Be sure to comment below!

The deadline to apply for disaster aid through the Federal Emergency Management Agency is Monday, July 12.
FEMA will accept registrations until 8 p.m.
"We can't help you if we don't know you need help," stated Doug Mayne, coordinating officer for FEMA. Mayne oversees the government's response to Kentucky's early May disaster.
Taylor County Circuit Court Clerk Rodney Burress participated in the 2010 Circuit Court Clerks Summer College, which took place June 15-17 in Lexington. The Administrative Office of the Courts hosted the event, which offered nine hours of continuing education credit.
The theme for the college was "A Day in the Life of a Clerk."
A small group of incoming Campbellsville High freshmen got a taste of high school life this week.
The school's Freshman FUNdamentals, a three-day program that began Monday, gave students an idea of what to expect once they enter high school.
Incoming freshmen participated in a scavenger hunt, in which they were given clues about items or tasks that could be accomplished in a particular room, such as the library. They then had to find that room.
A Campbellsville teen was treated for injuries following a two-vehicle crash Wednesday at the intersection of Meader Street and Coakley Avenue.
According to a Campbellsville Police report, at about 7:35 p.m., Audra Graham, 33, of Campbellsville was driving a 2000 Mitsubishi east on Coakley Avenue when she crossed into the path of a 2000 Honda, driven by Tyler Lambert, 21, of Campbellsville. Lambert was traveling north on Meader Street.
There wouldn't be a library in Taylor County if there wasn't a tax, she says.
Taylor County Public Library Director Elaine Munday says the tax is essential to keeping the library's doors open and books available for checkout.
According to Munday, the library's taxing district was created in the early 1980s, but not without resistance from residents.
June's Dairy Month has arrived and, this year, dairy farmers are celebrating their farms' survival.
For decades, dairy farms have had a major impact on the local community. But over the past year, they've taken a hit, feeling the brunt of an economic recession. As a result there has been a significant drop in the number of operating dairy farms in Taylor County.
Steve and Teressa Germain are glued to the television. Sitting in their Campbellsville home, they are watching their future fall apart at the hands of the largest environmental disaster to ever strike the U.S. - the BP oil spill.
Steve was looking forward to an early retirement. A truck driver by trade, the long hours on the road were getting to him, so he started looking at his options.
About 160 people attended a performance of Madcap Puppets, a puppet theatre company from Cincinnati, Ohio.
Part of Taylor County Public Library's summer reading program, the performance, "Annie Oakley's Wild West Show," featured several different stories and characters, as well as audience interaction.
State Sen. Jimmy Higdon, R-Lebanon, will be visiting county offices in several communities on Wednesday, June 30 to meet with residents and take any questions or comments about the recent legislative session or any other concern they may have.
Higdon will be at the Taylor County Courthouse from 3 until 5 p.m.
Taylor County has received a $26,100 Kentucky Pride Fund grant.
On Friday, Gov. Steve Beshear announced 38 recycling and 10 household hazardous waste grants totaling more than $3.5 million to expand recycling in Kentucky, reduce the amount of solid waste going into landfills, and sustain the environmental management of hazardous waste from homes.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains one of the most common hepatic malignancies worldwide. Liver transplantation (LT) has become a curative treatment option for HCC, and the Milan criteria have been accepted as a standard for selecting HCC patients who can benefit from LT.[1] However, it has been noted that patients with tumors beyond the Milan criteria size limits may also be favorable candidates for LT; therefore, the Milan criteria may be too strict because they rely solely on the size and number of tumors and do not consider any other phenotypic features of HCC. As a result, several institutions have expanded tumor size limits or have provided new criteria other than size for predicting survival outcomes after LT.[1-7]
The presence of a fibrous capsule on pathology is a characteristic finding of classic HCC and has been identified as a favorable prognostic factor after tumor resection.[8-10] In the radiological detection of fibrous capsules, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been shown to be more sensitive than computed tomography (CT).[11] However, no study has evaluated the encapsulation of HCC on MRI as a predictor of survival for HCC patients. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine whether a complete tumor capsule on MRI could serve as an imaging biomarker for better survival outcomes for patients with a solitary large HCC beyond the Milan criteria.

Recipe: Bigoli in salsa (whole grain spaghetti in anchovy sauce)
My paternal grandfather, Nonno Bino, was originally from the ghetto of Venice and came to Rome in the 1930s to find a job and a wife. He married my grandmother (Nonna Bianca) and worked with her in the family business - at the time a small shop selling glass and ceramic household products. I cherish my Venetian origins, and Venetian Jewish cooking is one of the richest cuisines in Italy. In fact, Venice had Ashkenazi, Sephardi and Italian Jews living together, and as a result the food in the ghettos was varied, exotic and cosmopolitan.
This recipe is a staple of Venetian Jewish cooking, even if its Jewish origins are often forgotten. Bigoli is Venetian pasta originally made with buckwheat flour, but is now more commonly made with whole wheat flour. It is a little thicker than the traditional spaghetti and its texture is rough, allowing the sauce to be more easily absorbed. I am using wholegrain spaghetti here as it is similar to bigoli and more easily available. Wholegrain spaghetti has a nutty flavour, which goes very well with the anchovies.
You may find out that even people who don't like anchovies often like this recipe - somehow the combination of the onions, parsley and wholegrain pasta balance-out the anchovies, creating a rich flavour.
Silvia's website is www.cookingforthesoul.com
Preparation time: 20 minutes.Serves 6 as starter or 4 as a main
500g wholemeal spaghetti
100g anchovy fillets
finely chopped
100ml extra virgin olive oil
3 finely chopped onions
Bunch of finely
chopped parsley
2 litres water
A handful of rock salt
Black pepper to taste
Heat up the olive oil and the onion in a large non stick frying pan.
Leave to cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes until the onion is soft. To help in the process, add a few tablespoons of warm water and leave it to evaporate.
Once the water has evaporated add half the parsley, then stir and leave the onion to turn golden.
Finely chop the anchovy fillets and add these to the frying pan together with some black pepper. Mix thoroughly with the onions and leave to cook for 3-4 minutes, adding the rest of the parsley at the last minute.
While the sauce is cooking, bring the water to a boil in a large saucepan. When it boils add a handful of sea salt and drop in the spaghetti. Stir well and leave to cook for as long as the package says or until al dente.
TIP: Before draining the pasta, take a large cup of boiling water from the saucepan and put to one side.
Drain the pasta and add it to the frying pan with the anchovy sauce on medium heat. Mix thoroughly until the pasta is coated with the sauce. If your frying pan is not big enough then use a large bowl instead.
While stirring, slowly add some of the water you put to one side earlier and let it absorb until it's creamy.
Add more olive oil if needed, ground black pepper to taste, stir thoroughly and serve immediately.

I have a GWT MVP application using Activities and Places. This is inspired by Mauro Bertapelle's sample (in this thread), apparently based on some of Thomas Broyer's work.
Here's the problem: I have LoginActivity make an RPC call, which for a successful login, returns a User. This user has a role (e.g., admin, regular user, guest). Several Views and Activities, including a NavigatorView, depend on this role for what they show or do. How do I get this User instance to the other Activities?
I do not have a ClientFactory; injection (Gin) is used for instantiating the Views in the ActivityProviders which provide my Activities/Presenters, and the ActivityProviders are injected into my ActivityMapper. So this may reduce to a Gin question: how do I get the user reference where it's needed? This seems to be similar to this SO question about global references in MVP.
Consider me a Gin newbie, this is my first attempt at using it. I'm guessing there is a "Gin way" to make this happen, but I don't know Gin well enough to know the best way to do this (if Gin should be used at all).
Much thanks.
Edit 1: Despite my best efforts searching SO for a similar question, I just found this question which is pretty much identical to mine (is the SO algorithm for finding "Related" links better than the search?). I'm thinking that the Gin answer by David is on the right track.
I don't think that an EventBus solution is possible. I'm following the Google guidelines which involve instantiating Activity at every Place change, so a single Event by itself will not suffice.

Alumni News
- Combining his passion for law with his love for communication, College of Media & Communication alumnus Jerod Slay, J.D., currently works as the online marketing director at Glasheen, Valles & Inderman, LLP, a personal injury law firm in Lubbock.
A native of Lubbock, Slay attended Texas Tech University and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Electronic Media & Communication in 2009. He went on to earn a law degree from the Texas Tech University School of Law and was admitted to the State Bar of Texas in 2012.
"I do online marketing for the law firm, so I handle the firm's website, online advertising, buying, social media, online profiles for the attorneys, and lots of other stuff," Slay, who joined the firm in June 2015, said.
Slay said he chose to go to law school after taking Mass Communications Law, a required course for all CoMC majors, which made him realize that he had a passion for law. After he was admitted to the state bar, Slay said he practiced law for eight months at the local firm Byrd & Associates, before he moved to Australia for a year in July 2013.
During his time in Australia, Slay said he worked a variety of jobs, such as photographing children meeting Santa Claus at a department store, photographing family portraits for school fundraisers, and appearing as an "extra" on two television shows.
When Slay returned to the U.S. in 2014, he said he started a company in Lubbock creating deposition videos. He explained that in order to create the videos ethically, it required a unique set of skills that paired his experience in law with his experience in media.
"When there was a deposition taking place that was important enough, I would be hired by the lawyers to videotape it," Slay said. "There are all these rules about what you have to do as a videographer, so even if you know everything about cameras, you have to know the rules for deposition videos, to be able to get into it."
The firm Slay currently works at has locations in Albuquerque, Austin, El Paso, Lubbock and Odessa. He said one of his favorite parts about his job is being able to travel between the various locations, buying traditional media advertising.
When it comes to advice for current students, Slay said that networking and communication skills are important no matter what field an individual is entering.
"Keep an open mind about where your career can take you," Slay said. "Don't rule anything out. You never know what doors may open."
- Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and College of Media & Communication alumnus and Hall of Fame member Robert Montemayor died Oct. 22 at the age of 62. He had been battled diabetes and cancer for the last several years.
Born on Jan. 31, 1953, in Tahoka, Texas, Montemayor graduated from Texas Tech University with a bachelor's degree in journalism in 1975. He began his professional career as a feature and news writer at the Dallas Times Herald.
Sally Post, the senior director of communications for the Office of the Vice President for Research at Texas Tech, said she worked with Montemayor at the campus newspaper, then called the University Daily, in the early 1970s.
"Robert was one of the most dedicated, talented journalists that I've ever known," Post said. "He had a passion for journalism and telling stories that made a difference to society. Robert made a huge impact on our industry."
Montemayor served as the student newspaper's editor from 1974-1975. Jeff Klotzman, a CoMC alumnus and news anchor for Fox 34 in Lubbock, described Montemayor as an honest and ethical journalist, beginning with his time at the University Daily.
"On the masthead of the University Daily during Robert's editorship was this quote, 'It's the business of this newspaper to raise constructive hell,'" Klotzman said. "He did, and he did it so well within the confines of journalism ethics, creativity and reliability all the years of his magnificent career."
Montemayor joined the Los Angeles Times in 1978. During his time as a staff writer, he was part of a team that was awarded the 1984 Pulitzer Prize for Meritorious Public Service for a 21-part series of stories on Latinos in Southern California that was later published as a book.
Jerry Hudson, Ph.D., founding dean, and now dean emeritus of CoMC, described Montemayor as "a great man and beloved patriarch" who was honored many times by his alma mater.
"Robert was more than just a journalist," Hudson said. "He was a Pulitzer Prize winner and a dedicated professional who had passion for making a difference in the lives of people through his reporting."
Montemayor earned a master's degree in business administration from the University of California, Los Angeles, in 1986. He then went on to work in New York City as a media executive specializing in consumer retention and marketing with Dow Jones & Co., BPI Communications, Inc., The McGraw-Hill Companies and Business Week Magazine.
In addition to authoring the book "Right Before Our Eyes: Latinos Past, Present and Future," Montemayor established a consulting company, served on the board of directors of the Maynard Institute for Journalism Education in Berkeley, California, and worked as a journalism professor and director of the Latino Information Network at Rutgers University.
Montemayor was inducted into the College of Media & Communication's Hall of Fame in 2012, and a scholarship for recruiting incoming CoMC freshman students has been established in his name.
- CoMC Alumnus Demonstrates Evolution Of Digital Marketing - One graduate from the Texas Tech University College of Media & Communication is making a difference in the world of marketing by working with a company that lets its employees work when they want, where they want.
Mat Threadgill, the vice president of Client Services at Standing Dog Interactive, graduated from CoMC with a bachelor's in advertising in 2000. He described the Dallas-based company, which has been running for 10 years and currently has over 70 employees, as the perfect example of how marketing has evolved over the years.
"Standing Dog has a very flexible work environment. You can work where you want, when you want, as long as you're getting your job done," Threadgill said. "It takes a lot of responsibility, but it also makes business more efficient."
Threadgill explained that in addition to being a full service digital strategies marketing firm that specializes in search engine optimization, paid online media, search media, social media content marketing and analytics and tracking, Standing Dog strives to help its employees find a balance between work life and home life.
"Our CEO has put his money where his mouth is in terms of principles," Threadgill said. "We want people to have a good work-life balance. When people have the time to do more of the stuff they want, it makes them better employees and they work harder in return."
After graduating from Texas Tech, Threadgill said that he tried out several different areas of marketing, including working for a branding, marketing and advertising agency, and starting a small marketing firm with a partner. He then found his current job at Standing Dog two years ago.
"At Standing Dog, I am responsible for the overall marketing strategies for our clients and for making sure that what we're doing from a digital marketing standpoint positively impacts the business," Threadgill said. "We are the single point of contact for the client, and my job is to know their business really well and to make sure that what we're doing on the digital side has a positive impact."
Threadgill also has experience in recruiting, and he said that when looking for someone to hire, he generally looks for three things: a willingness to learn, a willingness to work hard, and the ability to problem solve.
"A good résumé that shows a lot of experience is key," Threadgill said. "You can get good grades in all of your classes, but in my opinion, real world experience is just as important. I think it's important to work and to have internships, because they show the seriousness of a student."
As a CoMC graduate, Threadgill said that the education he received at the college gave him a great foundation in terms of knowing how to learn. He added that he was also inspired by the professors who taught him how to think creatively and how to problem solve, because those are attributes he uses is his day-to-day life.
"I think Texas Tech offers a very good, well-rounded degree that focuses more on learning how to learn, than just learning facts," Threadgill said. "That's important in the world of marketing, because whatever we learn today will change a year from now."

Samsung Galaxy S III Mini official, available November
Samsung has announced the latest addition to its Galaxy family, the Samsung Galaxy S III Mini, at a press event in Frankfurt, Germany.
The Android-powered handset is a miniaturised version of the Korean manufacturer's flagship Samsung Galaxy S III phone, sporting a 4-inch display as opposed to its larger sibling's 4.8-inches.
Okay, that's not quite true, because the "mini" factor really spreads only to the design, as Samsung has kitted the handset with a dual-core 1GHz processor, 5-megapixel camera with autofocus and LED flash, NFC, Wi-Fi and 8GB or 16GB of on-board memory depending what model you go for. There is also a microSD card slot for memory expansion.
Most pleasing is that Samsung is launching the Galaxy S III Mini on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean - the latest version of Google's operating system - doing away with upgrade woes. It comes skinned with the normal Samsung UI however.
Smaller, and one would presume cheaper, the Samsung Galaxy S III Mini may be, but the manufacturer has still included a number of innovative features found in the original Samsung Galaxy S III. Smart Stay is on board, tracking the user's eye. So long as you are looking at the screen, the display will remain fully lit.
Direct Call is also present, enabling you to call someone who has just texted you by simply lifting the phone to your ear, while Smart Alert will make you aware of any calls or messages you may have missed, each time you pick up the phone.
Music files can again be shared with other S Beam-enabled Samsung phones, by just tapping the two devices together using NFC, while Buddy Photo Share will automatically recognise friends' and family's faces, tagging them and allowing you to send them a copy remotely from the camera or photo gallery.
Phones4u has confirmed that the Samsung Galaxy S III Mini will be on contract from £25 a month and be available from 2 November.

Jill Painter of the Los Angeles Daily News: Lakers coach Mike Brown is not caving under the pressure that has put him on the hot seat in early November. Not even after the Lakers lost their first three games. It was a woeful beginning not seen since 1978, but if you're thinking Brown is going to ditch the Princeton offense, that's just wishful thinking. The Lakers finally found a reprieve from their losing ways as they crushed a young Pistons team 108-79 Sunday at Staples Center. They needed this. Fans gave a standing ovation over the final seconds and purple and gold streamers came from the rafters. This wasn't a playoff game, no. Just Game 4 of the regular season. Hey, a win is a win is a win is a win. More important for the Lakers, it wasn't another loss. "Some may look at as a relief, but I look at it as a good win because we needed a win. But it's not whew," Brown said, mimicking the noise surely many fans made. "It's not one of those. I'm excited about the way we played the game."
Vincent Goodwill of The Detroit News: For the Pistons, surely they aren't as bad as they displayed. This performance was reminiscent of many during their disastrous 4-20 start last season, raising the question of whether Pistons coach Lawrence Frank will consider changes to the lineup or write this game off as a lethargic or ineffective effort. "It was total domination," Frank said. "Their first 15, 18 points were in the paint and they were shooting 62 percent. They scored 80 points basically in the first 32 minutes constantly taking the ball to the net." Rodney Stuckey continued his struggles, part of which could be attributed to migraine headaches he's getting treatment for. He hasn't made a basket on this trip, missed all six of his attempts Sunday and for the season, is 1-for-23. His backcourt partner, Knight, wasn't much better, either. The second-year point guard had trouble initiating the offense and had five turnovers. The Pistons shot 37 percent from the field, allowing the Lakers to shoot 62 percent in the first half, as garbage time came into play early.
Darnell Mayberry of The Oklahoman: The worst thing that can happen to this Thunder season is something that's reared its head in every single game thus far. That's egos creeping in and causing players to believe they're better than. Tonight, much like the first two nights of the 2012-13 season, there was a ton of barking amongThunder players. At the end of the first quarter, Thabo Sefolosha and Russell Westbrook had to be separated from exchanging words as they walked to the bench. It was a show of anger that surprisingly was also seen from the same two as they walked off the court at halftime Friday night. Later, Durant chewed out Serge Ibaka for failing to grab a rebound. And of course there was the usual head-shaking between Ibaka and Kendrick Perkins whenever the paint went left unprotected. The problem is everyone has an opinion and everyone is sharing it. It can't be that way. There should be two voices on the court. Durant's. And Westbrook's. Everyone else needs to fall in line. What's happening now is that everyone is acting like they know best, almost like they're the reason for the team's success, like their poop doesn't stink and the man's next to them does. And you can't help but wonder how much of the attitude has to do with last year's success and whether it will soon subside or only fester and grow fangs.
Chris Vivlamore of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: The Lou Williams signing looks pretty darn good right about now. The Hawks did what few thought was possible on Sunday. They entered one hostile environment and stared down the defending Western Conference champion Thunder. Oh, and did we mention they did so without star Josh Smith. Williams had a run of 10 straight points late in the fourth quarter as the Hawks defeated the Thunder 104-95 silencing a once raucous sellout crowd of 18,203 at Chesapeake Energy Arena. Williams scored 14 of the Hawks' final 23 points. DeShawn Stevenson hit a 3-pointer with 1:28 remaining that put the Hawks up 100-91. Williams then hit four free throws in the final seconds to ice the victory and end a Thunder mini-run. "Over the past four or five years of my career, the fourth quarter has probably been my best," said Williams, who finished with 19 points.
Nate Taylor of The New York Times: There was no pregame speech from Carmelo Anthony to the home crowd, no emotional rush with the opening tip-off and no sign of the defending champion Miami Heat, as there was on Friday. Instead, the Philadelphia 76ers, who finished a game back of the Knicks in the Atlantic Division last season, were at the Garden for the noon game. Although it would not look as impressive, Coach Mike Woodson knew a victory against the 76ers would be just as important. The Knicks withstood every push from the 76ers in the second half to secure a 100-84 victory and start a season 2-0 for the first time in 13 years. Their performance had all the elements Woodson wanted: solid defense, ball movement and offensive production from the reserves. Though it is early, the Knicks have demonstrated a formula for success. "Our blueprint is to play defense, move the ball to the open man and keep playing hard," said J. R. Smith, who had 20 points and 9 rebounds off the bench. "We have confidence in each other."
John N. Mitchell of The Philadelphia Inquirer: Doug Collins often has bemoaned the presence of photographers along the baseline, and on Sunday, when he lost shooting guard Jason Richardson to a sprained left ankle in the first quarter against the New York Knicks, the 76ers coach had yet another reason to complain. However, it was Richardson, not Collins, who did the talking. "They really don't belong down there - you see what happens," said Richardson, who suffered the sprain when he stepped on a cameraman's foot at Madison Square Garden. "It creates all kinds of problems for players. There's got to be a better way." Richardson was hurt less than two minutes into the game with the Sixers trailing, 5-2. X-rays of his ankle found no broken bones, but he left the arena with his foot in a walking boot. In Monday's rematch with the Knicks at the Wells Fargo Center, Richardson likely will be replaced in the starting lineup by Nick Young.
Doug Smith of the Toronto Star: There may not be a bigger compliment that Dwane Casey can give. He is a basketball coach who appreciates work ethic above all, a guy who loves players who compete and do what's asked and when the conversation got around to Alan Anderson after the Raptors' first win of the season, Casey trotted out a superlative that might mean more than any he could use. "He's a man," Casey said of Anderson, who had 18 points off the bench as the Raptors beat the Minnesota Timberwolves 105-86 before an announced crowd of 16,754 at the Air Canada Centre. "He played like a man." Anderson does possess all the attributes Casey holds dear to his heart and that fans should appreciate. He's not flashy but he's tough. He's not gifted but he grinds. He's not selfish but he can make teams pay when they ignore him. He's a pro who knows how to play.
Jerry Zgoda of the Star Tribune: Fearless Timberwolves point guard J.J. Barea doesn't remember much about the second-quarter play that knocked him out of Sunday night's game at Toronto. But he does know one thing after he left the game because of what a team spokesman called "concussion-like symptoms." "My face hurts," he said after a 105-86 loss in which his team already was without injured stars Kevin Love and Ricky Rubio. "I got a couple cuts in my mouth, but other than that, I'm all right." Actually, the NBA will determine that, perhaps as soon as Monday. Barea must pass NBA tests that are part of the league's new concussion policy before he is cleared to play again. The Wolves face the Nets in Brooklyn on Monday night. Barea took two tests Sunday night at Air Canada Centre. "I think I failed the first and passed the second one just now, so we'll see," he said after scoring nine points before being sidelined after playing less than eight minutes. "I'll probably play [Monday]."
Brian Schmitz of the Orlando Sentinel: They crushed Phoenix 115-94 to remain unbeaten Sunday night, spotting the Suns two starters to boot. One of the fill-ins was DeQuan Jones, a training-camp long-shot who made good. Who drew up this operations plan? The directors of Rudy? Was this a Disney movie? The Magic are going off-script. They had no business winning against Phoenix, considering who was on medical leave. No Jameer. No Hedo. (And, oh yeah: No Dwight). The Magic could have easily justified falling to the Suns in this matchup of rebuilding teams and not be accused of tanking by the NBA, FCC, Congress or the Better Business Bureau. Not one guy in the lineup was a full-time starter last season. Instead, they took their postseason battle cry from last season — "We All We Got" — seriously. … Time for fans to start working as hard as these players, don't you think? Break up the Magic! Oh, that's right. They already did. And apparently, these guys are reveling in it.
Paul Coro of The Arizona Republic: Like any team, the Suns had optimism. But they have to be stunned about being 1-2 after games against franchises that are supposed to join them for the June draft lottery. "Surprised? Upset," Suns forward Michael Beasley said. On a day that began with the best quarter of their young season, the Suns turned embarrassingly inept at both ends during a 35-point turnaround to an injury-depleted Orlando team. The Magic used a 32-8 run over the third quarter's final 8:07 to wind up blowing out the Suns 115-94 at Amway Center. Within two hours of play, the Suns went from a team that finally had its offense catching up with continued defense to a team that looked like it has more issues than a newsstand. Over a six-minute stretch of play, the Suns managed one defensive stop, and that was only because Glen Davis, the Magic player who was killing them with a 14-point quarter, happened to miss a jump shot.
Geoff Calkins of The Commercial-Appeal: Robert Pera said he wants to make FedExForum the most technologically advanced arena in the country. He said he wants to use advanced analytics to evaluate players, like the sort used in "Moneyball." He said he wants to build a player-centric culture in Memphis, so players will think of Memphis as a destination. And, yes, at this last one, I rolled my eyes, too. But that's the thing about youth. It tends to dream big. That's supposed to be a good thing, isn't it? Besides, Pera doesn't come across as rash and impulsive, but thoughtful and deliberate. He picked Levien to essentially run the franchise, on the business and basketball sides. The two of them won't make any decisions about Chris Wallace, Greg Campbell or Lionel Hollins until they have a chance to see how the team operates. … The guy doesn't think he has all the answers. He just wants to find them all, soon. So today should be a big day for the city, and for Pera, too. Asked how he expects to feel, Pera gave the answer of any jacked up 34-year-old. "Awesome," he said.
