NETGEM: Network Embedded Temporal GEnerative Model for gene expression data
Temporal analysis of gene expression data has been limited to identifying genes whose expression varies with time and/or correlation between genes that have similar temporal profiles. Often, the methods do not consider the underlying network constraints that connect the genes. It is becoming increasingly evident that interactions change substantially with time. Thus far, there is no systematic method to relate the temporal changes in gene expression to the dynamics of interactions between them. Information on interaction dynamics would open up possibilities for discovering new mechanisms of regulation by providing valuable insight into identifying time-sensitive interactions as well as permit studies on the effect of a genetic perturbation.
We present NETGEM, a tractable model rooted in Markov dynamics, for analyzing the dynamics of the interactions between proteins based on the dynamics of the expression changes of the genes that encode them. The model treats the interaction strengths as random variables which are modulated by suitable priors. This approach is necessitated by the extremely small sample size of the datasets, relative to the number of interactions. The model is amenable to a linear time algorithm for efficient inference. Using temporal gene expression data, NETGEM was successful in identifying (i) temporal interactions and determining their strength, (ii) functional categories of the actively interacting partners and (iii) dynamics of interactions in perturbed networks.
NETGEM represents an optimal trade-off between model complexity and data requirement. It was able to deduce actively interacting genes and functional categories from temporal gene expression data. It permits inference by incorporating the information available in perturbed networks. Given that the inputs to NETGEM are only the network and the temporal variation of the nodes, this algorithm promises to have widespread applications, beyond biological systems.
The source code for NETGEM is available from
Gene expression microarrays are increasingly used to determine transcriptional regulation in response to a genetic or environmental perturbation. Often the inference is presented as a static network of genes that are activated or repressed by relevant transcription factors, similar to a wiring diagram of electrical circuits
Conventional methods of time series analysis cannot be applied to this problem due to the small number of observations (gene expression data) from different time points are available relative to variables (gene interaction strengths)
In this paper, we consider the problem of identifying temporal changes in the interactions in a network with a known topology from temporal profiles of gene expression data. The protein interaction network of baker's yeast,
We introduce NETGEM, which stands for "Network Embedded Temporal GEnerative Model for gene expression data", a generative model for analyzing temporal data which is capable of capturing the interaction dynamics in the network. Our approach incorporates network effects into Markovian dynamics, and also compares the impact of genetic perturbation on the interaction dynamics. A fundamental premise of the model is that the evolution of the interaction strengths can be modeled in terms of the functional categories of the interacting genes. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time such a model has been investigated. NETGEM assumes that the interaction strengths evolve
Recent work
Time-sensitive interactions were inferred from gene expression data using L1-regularization
The main contribution of this paper is a generative probabilistic graphical model based on Markovian dynamics for temporal dynamics of gen e interactions that
• integrates known information about the underlying interaction network,
• encapsulates known functional category information to modulate the Markovian dynamics,
• develops a simple and fast method to jointly infer closely related models corresponding to small perturbations of a base network, and
• incorporates Bayesian approach to address the problem of small sample size.
Therefore, NETGEM takes the high throughput, temporal gene expression data and the network topology as inputs and scores the interactions based on the change in the expression value of the connected nodes over discrete time intervals. Furthermore, it has the built-in capability to assess the impact of a perturbation, such as a gene deletion, on the network. The underlying assumption is that the impact of the perturbation dampens with distance from the perturbed node. In order to provide physiological insight into the dynamics, the genes are classified according to their functional categories and the interaction between the functional categories is also assessed.

Incorporating functional categories via mixtures
Since genes belong to multiple categories, a mixture model is a naturally suited model to handle the influence of multiple functional categories in the inference procedure. This allows us to explore the relationship between functional categories and the temporal evolution characteristics of the genes which fall in the same functional category. The remainder of this section describes the machinery for incorporating the functional category information into the generative model.
Let there be

The learning of the model parameters is significantly difficult when there are few time points. To alleviate this, we propose a prior Θ on the transition probabilities

Analysis of Perturbed Networks
We consider the problem of multiple strains which are just slightly altered versions of the networks where a few genes have been knocked out of the network. Therefore, most of the network remains the same across strains with only the "close" neighbourhood of the knocked out genes being affected. We assume that the weights corresponding to the reference strain

Further, the strain damping allows the incorporation of multiple gene expression datasets which have been generated under slightly different conditions. In effect, we learn the dynamics of functional categories from multiple instances of short time series which are not i.i.d. but are strongly related through the functional classification. This reduces the variance in the results partly alleviating the problem of inference in short time series.
One can model the dynamics of the simple model defined by eqn. (1) and eqn. (2) using a simple HMM having a large state space. The quantity to be estimated is the transition probability Q. However, the exponential state space makes such an approach impractical. For the purpose of study, we present a small experiment which shows that incorporating the functional information in beneficial in terms of computational requirements as well as accuracy (See Additional File
Using NETGEM on gene expression data
This section presents inference results using our model for identifying interaction dynamics from two gene expression datasets in yeast.
We are interested in the edges which show considerable activity during the measured time points. Towards this end, we compute the change score
Our results show that the model correctly identifies known interactions. For example, it discovers the gradual transition from positive to negative interaction strength in edges between carbohydrate metabolism and protein synthesis genes. Moreover, it detects abrupt changes in the interaction patterns. Combining expression data from a reference strain and
The gene expression dataset in the following experiments is normalized independently for each strain by subtracting from the gene expression
We chose the set
Interaction dynamics in response to nutrient availability (Experiment 1)
The data in this experiment captures the changes in gene expression during the gradual transition from glucose to ammonia as the growth-limiting nutrient. Genes that have already been grouped into eight clusters
Figure 3
Experiment 1 network interactions
Experiment 1 network interactions. Time varying interaction strengths between the genes from Experiment 1. Each network is composed of all the genes from the eight clusters previously identified
The transition in the growth-limiting nutrient also brought about an abrupt change in the interactions between genes responsible for ribosome biosynthesis (cluster of genes on the extreme right of each network). Our model identified a momentary repression in the synthesis of ribosomes at t = 9.6 hours, when the growth limitation was exerted by ammonia. These genes were constitutively active during all other time points, as is expected because ribosome biosynthesis is an essential cellular process. The temporary arrest in ribosome biosynthesis was attributed to the control exerted by Sfp1 transcription factor
Interaction dynamics in response to network perturbation (Experiment 2)
An important aspect of NETGEM is to capture the dynamics in response to a perturbation in the network. The model allows identifying the significantly changed interactions in response to a deletion of a gene. In this experiment, we evaluate the effect of deleting a key transcription factor, Sfp1
We first identified the interactions that are sensitive to time and perturbation. The histogram of the number of edges was fit to an exponential distribution and only those interactions that passed the threshold cutoff of
An important aspect of novelty in our model is the incorporation of the damping effect in the model through eqn. (10) and eqn. (11). This ensures that interactions further from the point of perturbation in the network are affected to a lesser degree than those closer to it. The effect of damping is very sensitive to the network and in the network we considered in this study, a majority of the edges appear to be relatively unaffected by the perturbation.
After assessing the effect of perturbation for our network, we identified temporal changes in the interactions in the REF strain as well as the MUT strain independently. We observed some overlap in the actively interacting genes between REF and MUT. Many of these genes were hexose transporters and those responsible for pH homeostasis. The genes (and the functional categories) that are common to the strain indicate that they are not responsive to the mutations. NETGEM was able to identify temporal interactions that are most sensitive to the mutation. These interactions predominantly occurred between ribosome biosynthesis and amino acid metabolism. The results concur with the known role of Sfp1 in coordinating metabolism with ribosome biosynthesis and serve as an independent validation of the accuracy of the damping model incorporated in NETGEM. These interactions were identified by considering gene expression profiles in REF and MUT, using the damping model. Indeed the functional classification of the genes between which interactions change significantly indicate that Sfp1 transcription factor has widespread control over coordinating ribosome biosynthesis, pH homeostasis, transport of proteins and drugs, etc. Table

Broadhectare study 2013 profile

1 Broadhectare study 2013 profile Brisbane City Introduction The preliminary estimated resident population of Brisbane City (hereafter referred to as Brisbane) ) at 30 June 2012 was 1,110,500 persons (Source: ABS ). This is expected to increase to between 1,224,100 (low series) and 1,267,400 (high series) persons by 2021,, representing population growth over the period of between 113,600 (low series) and 156,900 (high series) (Source: Queensland Government Population Projections, 2013 edition). To accommodate future population growth in Brisbane, the emphasis is on facilitating infill development. As such, broadhectare land supply represents a smaller proportion of overall residential development potential in Brisbane compared to other local government areas. Land stock The total area of broadhectare land available in Brisbane for residential development is 1,950 hectares,, representing only a very small percentage of the total land area (Tables 1 and 2). In addition to broadhectare land, residential development will occur on parcels below the study threshold of 2,500 square metres. For Brisbane, this would include land within infill areas which includes the Priority Development Areas of Bowen Hills, Fitzgibbon, Northshore Hamilton and Woolloongabba. Broadhectare land is defined as the amount of unconstrained residential land under the current planning scheme including existing residential developments approved by council. For this study, land parcels are excluded that yield less than three dwellings. Broadhectare land can be further classified as follows: urban residential ial broadhectare land 1,950 hectares rural residential broadhectare land 0 hectares. The broadhectare study refers to rural residential development as yielding three dwellings or less per hectare, or as otherwise described in the planning scheme. Whilst development at standard urban and higher is classified as yielding between 4 to 20 dwellings and greater than 20 dwellings per hectare respectively. Table 1 Brisbane land use profile Land use category Suitable for urban residential broadhectare development Suitable for rural residential broadhectare development Assumed existing urban residential use Assumed existing rural residential use Roads, watercourses and railway casements /Green/Open space Balance area (a) Area 1,950 ha 0 ha 22,923 ha 11,272 ha 18,769 ha 65,721 ha 13,365 ha % of total 0.01% <0.01% 17.11% 8.41% 14.01% 49.05% 9.97% (a) Includes all land uses other than residential.

(b) Yield if all broadhectare stock is developed irrespective of ownership and/or fragmentation. (c) Yield has been reduced to account for likelihood of development due to factors such as ownership and fragmentation. The main points from Table 2 are: Broadhectare land is likely to yield approximately 57,000 dwellings. Development at higher accounts for over 70 per cent of the total expected dwelling yield. An additional 4,400 dwellings could be added to supply based on the theoretical yield. Stock composition The broadhectare stock in Brisbane is contained primarily within land parcels less than 1.2 hectares in area (Table 3). For all broadhectare parcels, the difference between the overall parcel area (2,763 hectares) and the area available for development (1,950 hectares) indicates that some parcels are affected by physical or environmental constraints. The main points from Table 3 include: Residential stock is contained within 1,804 land parcels. Parcels less than or equal to 1.2 hectares account for over 68 per cent of all parcels. Future rural residential development is unlikely. Parcels sized 10 hectares or more account for only 5 per cent of the expected total dwelling yield from broadhectare land.

3 Population capacity Average household size for occupied private dwellings in Brisbane at the time of the 2011 Census was 2.8 and 1.7 persons for houses and attached dwellings respectively. Table 4 shows a range of possible population yields for the total identified broadhectare stock in each category by a range of household sizes. The current household sizes at the time of the 2011 Census are highlighted. The main finding from Table 4 is that, depending on average household size, land from broadhectare development could accommodate between 92,200 and 137,800 people. Further development in existing residential areas, where the parcel size is less than 2,500 square metres could also accommodate additional population.

Excludes usual residents who were temporarily absent on census night. potential dwelling yield Land ownership and fragmentation of land are potential constraints to residential development, and adjustments have been made to the broadhectare stock by applying potential development rates to land parcels. Furthermore, existing vacant residential land stock below 2,500 square metres has been added to the broadhectare supply. Broadhectare residential land supply based on these components indicates a total potential dwelling yield of approximately 59,800 dwellings (See Table 5). It is important to note that this dwelling yield does not include dwellings that would have been achieved through infill and redevelopment of smaller parcels below the broadhectare model threshold. Dwelling demand To give an overall indication of future dwelling demand, three scenarios of dwelling projections have been used based on the Queensland Government s population projection series low, medium and high. Figure 1 and Table 5 show, based on these scenarios, the number of dwellings required to Evidently, not all future dwelling demand will be met through development of broadhectare land as increasingly the emphasis will be towards infill and redevelopment.

Conclusion Brisbane City The study has estimated that the total area of broadhectare land available for residential development is 1,950 hectares. If this land were fully developed it has the potential to yield approximately 57,000 dwellings and accommodate 115,000 people, using current average household sizes. To accommodate future population growth in Brisbane, the emphasis is on facilitating infill development. As such, broadhectare land supply contributes a smaller proportion of overall residential development potential in Brisbane compared to other local government areas.

Ovation has applied 40 years of guitar making to design an affordable guitar that doesn't sound like an affordable guitar. The Celebrity Deluxe is proof of that. This guitar boasts bigger sound than guitars that cost twice as much.The Ovation sound. The sound that made the acoustic guitar a viable electric instrument is now within everyone's reach. Multi-soundhole technology made affordable. Using the same unique Ovation Quintad bracing pattern featured on the more expensive Elite models, here's an acoustic/electric that will continue to earn its keep as your playing skills mature.
Multiple soundholes in the upper bout allow for more efficient bracing and tone contouring. This technique has been perfected over the last two decades on guitars ten times as expensive. Now everyone can own one. Ovation's unique Quintad bracing pattern allows maximum top vibration while maintaining stability. In conjunction with the roundback body, the Celebrity Deluxe produces a robust sound with plenty of tonal cut.
Ovation's Figured Ash Top CC Series offers a great looking and great playing guitar to players looking for value and pro features. Each top has a unique pattern making every guitar a one-of-a-kind instrument. A hand applied Cherry Transparent Burst finish brings out the contrasting grain pattern and further enhances the soundboard's rich look. The CC44-CTBFA also features inlaid abalone body binding, mid-depth cutaway body style, comfortable "U" shaped neck, gleaming gold tuners and Exotic Hardwood Epaulets. A bound rosewood fingerboard and the slim 'U' shaped neck make the Celebrity Deluxe one of the easiest-playing guitars in the business. The frets are hand-dressed and the action height is set to "Fast."
Electronics include an Ovation Slimline Pickup and an OP4BT preamp. The OP4BT preamp offers +/-12dB control over the bass, midrange, and treble frequencies for great tonal flexibility. It's on-board tuner is easy to use and helps you stay perfectly in-tune, even when using open or non-standard tunings.

text: I didn't get to blog about Sleaze last week, I was on a big cock rant. Sleaze is a threesome sex video clip that was featured at Hot Barebacking. And this video has it all. It opens with this really hot, tattooed guy sucking his own cock. That would be Chris Neal. Now the interesting thing about Neal is that not only is he tattooed all over his body, but he's even sporting an inked cock. He's got two strips on the shaft of his cock and a heart on his cock head. Ouch! That must have stung. I've had a couple of tattoos done on my arm, and while I wouldn't say they hurt -- the sensation is more irritating than anything -- I'm fairly sure I wouldn't want to feel that on my cock. With his tattooed cock rock hard, Neal gets on all fours and takes a baseball bat up his ass. And it slides a lot further than one would expect is humanly possible. While he's getting his ass fucked with the bat, another guy slides under him for a hot 69 cock sucking session. With his ass warmed up, Neal and the other bottom get on all fours and face away from one another. The top in this scene grabs a huge double-headed dildo and fucks them both at the same time. From here the guys get into some cock sucking, ass fucking, and even some double penetration before everyone blows their load.

Have you been skeptical about Seth MacFarlane tackling new territory with A Million Ways to Die in the West? We've already seen the first official image, but the comedy's fun new posters might get your hopes up. Stars Charlize Theron, Amanda Seyfried, Liam Neeson, Neil Patrick Harris, Sarah Silverman, Giovanni Ribisi, and MacFarlane each take center stage in their own Western-themed posters.

When a presidential candidate promises to ban Muslims from the country as his first act in office, should the courts be allowed to investigate the motivations of an Executive Order barring entry to nationals of six Muslim countries, ostensibly to keep out terrorists? Should courts be allowed to look behind the curtain of an Executive Order?
During his first week in office--need we be reminded--President Trump issued his Travel Ban 1.0, a wide ranging order barring everyone from seven Muslim countries from entering the United States for three months pending further review, suspending the admittance of refugees for four months, barring the admission of refugees from Syria indefinitely, and directing a preference for "religious minorities" in those areas. Travel ban 1.0 left hundreds stranded in the immediate aftermath of its poorly implemented rollout.
After a few days of chaos, a federal court in Washington State issued an order stopping further implementation of Travel Ban 1.0 until a hearing could be completed to evaluate its constitutionality. On February 9, 2017 the 9th Cir. Court of Appeals affirmed the nationwide stay of Travel Ban 1.0 until a hearing could be held on the merits. That order is now moot.
Travel Ban 2.0On March 6, 2017 President Trump signed a replacement executive order, Travel Ban 2.0. This new order retains key elements of Travel Ban 1.0, but also includes significant modifications designed to make it "court-proof." Travel Ban 2.0 exempts U.S. Green Card holders, persons who have been granted a visa, or otherwise granted permission to enter the U.S.
Travel Ban 2.0 dropped Iraq from its list of targeted countries altogether. It no longer bars refugees from Syria indefinitely, but it continues to suspend the U.S. refugee program for 120 days and it continues to ban travelers from Iran, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Sudan and Lybia for 90 days.
On March 10, Ilya Somin noted that Travel Ban 2.0 continues to be driven by hostility to Muslims and that its security rationale continues to be extremely weak. Travel Ban 2.0 continues to assert "nearly unfettered authority by the federal government," he said. This week two federal trial courts, in Hawaii and Maryland, have agreed with Somin.
International Refugee Assistance Project v. Trump
In the Maryland case, the court blocked implementation of Travel Ban 2.0 until a hearing can be held on its constitutionality, relying in part on 8 USC 1152(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, and relying in part on the Establishment Clause of the constitution. In doing so, the court explicitly found that under the circumstances of this case, the courts may look behind the curtain for improper motivation.
A. The President lacks Statutory Authority for his Order:
Section 1152(a) states that "no person shall be . . . discriminated against in the issuance of an immigrant visa because of his . . . nationality, place of birth, or place of residence." Although the president has broad powers to suspend the entry of "any class of aliens as immigrants" that he or she deems detrimental to the interests of the United States (8 USC 1182(f)) this power is circumscribed by the more specific requirement of 1152(a) that the government may not discriminate in denying a visa based on nationality or place of residence. Because Travel Ban 2.0 denies visas based on nationality and place of residence, it is unlawful.
Section 1152(a), said the court, was adopted expressly to abolish the 'national origins system' of immigration that was designed to "maintain, to some degree, the ethnic composition of the American people." President Johnson sought this reform because the national origins system was at odds with "our basic American tradition" that we "ask not where a person comes from but what are his personal qualities."
B. Travel Ban 2.0 Violates the Establishment Clause:
The Maryland court also relied on the Establishment Clause of the first amendment to the constitution. A government action is subject to challenge under the Establishment Clause if (1) it is animated by religious animus, (2) if its principle or primary effect is to enhance or inhibit religion, or (3) if it fosters an excessive government entanglement with religion. Citing Lemon v. Kurtzman 403 U.S. 602 (1971).
The Maryland court also relied on the Establishment Clause of the first amendment to the constitution. A government action is subject to challenge under the Establishment Clause if (1) it is animated by religious animus, (2) if its principle or primary effect is to enhance or inhibit religion, or (3) if it fosters an excessive government entanglement with religion. Citing Lemon v. Kurtzman 403 U.S. 602 (1971).
How do courts determine whether a governmental action (like Travel Ban 2.0) is animated by religious animus? The court looked at the 2005 U.S. Supreme Court decision in McCreary County v. ACLU of KY: "In determining purpose, a court acts as an 'objective observer' who considers 'the traditional external signs that show up in the text, legislative history, and implementation of the statute, or comparable official act.'" In other words, the mere identification (or claim) of a valid secular purpose does not satisfy the test. Courts will look at objective signs. It's something that courts do "all the time."
In this case, of course, there is ample evidence of religious animus from candidate Trump's oft repeated promise that, as one of his first acts as President, he would bar Muslims from the country. There is evidence in the statements of Trump representatives that Travel Ban 1.0 was drafted to implement that promise (Giuliani), and that Travel Ban 2.0 was meant to serve the same underlying purpose, with only minor technical adjustments made in order to humor the courts (Miller). The Maryland court's opinion reviews a long litany of public statements made by various Trump administration figures, both before and after the election, that suggest that both Travel Ban 1.0 and Travel Ban 2.0 are motivated by religious animus and therefore unconstitutional.
Unlike 31-year old White House aid Steven Miller, the courts so far have been firm in holding that a fundamental assault on the constitution can not be cured with "minor technical" adjustments.
Kleindienst v. Mandel
In defending Travel Ban 2.0, the administration's lawyers point to Kleindienst v. Mandel (1972). There the court was confronted with a statute that generally denied a visa to anyone known to advocate for world wide communism, subject to the Secretary of State's discretion to grant waivers in individual cases. Mandel was a Belgian journalist who advocated for the imposition of world wide communism. He had previously applied for and been granted entry visas pursuant to special waivers. The Nixon State Department refused to grant an exemption. Professors at various universities where Mandel was set to speak sued, alleging that their First Amendment rights to hear and engage with Mandel were infringed. Justice Blackmun writing for the court, having recognized a First Amendment interest, concluded: "when the Executive exercises this power (to grant an exemption) negatively on the basis of a facially legitimate and bona fide reason, the courts will neither look behind the exercise of that discretion nor test it by balancing its justification against the First Amendment interests of those who seek personal communication with the applicant."
"See," say Travel Ban 2.0 advocates, pointing at Mandel, "when the Executive Order professes it is motivated by legitimate concerns of terrorist infiltration, the court's can't look behind the curtain of this assertion for religious animus; no matter what the president may have said on the campaign trail, and no matter what Steven Miller and Rudy Giuliani may have said since, the courts must take the secular purpose of the Executive Order at face value."
Most judges aren't buying this argument.
The Maryland court in halting Travel Ban 2.0, like the 9th Circuit in Washington v. Trump (halting implementation of Travel Ban 1.0), distinguished Blackmun's statement in Mandel. This not-looking-behind-the-curtain standard "is most typically applied when a court is asked to review an executive officer's decision to deny a visa," said the court. "The Mandel test. . . does not apply to the promulgation of sweeping immigration policy at the highest levels of the political branches. International Refugee Assistance Project v. Trump (internal quotes omitted).
The Devil's Advocate
One judge who thinks that courts should not be looking behind the curtain in reviewing Travel Ban 2.0 is Judge Jay Bybee of the 9th Circuit. Judge Bybee was so incensed by the action of the three judge panel in Washington v. Trump (upholding the restraining order on Travel Ban 1.0) that he penned a 26 page dissent from a denial of the request of "one judge" to reconsider and vacate the published order, despite the fact that the order is moot and that no party had asked that the published order be vacated.
"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain," says judge Bybee, "the Great Trump has spoken (and Travel Ban 2.0 is not facially invalid)." Bybee was joined in his protest by four circuit judges: Kozinsky, Callahan, Bea, and Ikuda.
Judge Bybee, of course is infamous for being one of the authors of the Bush torture memos. In August 2002, Bybee, then with the Office of Legal Counsel in the Bush Justice Department, issued a memorandum justifying the use of torture to extract information from Qaeda operatives. If the President (or vice President?) want to torture in order to fight terrorism, lawyers should facilitate this? Bybee "provided complex definitions of torture that seemed devised to allow interrogators to evade being charged with that offense," reported the New York Times.
Consistent with his approach in the torture memos, Bybee concludes that Mandel sets the standard of review for the courts in this case, and the standard requires that the courts not look behind the curtain of Travel Ban 2.0.
Bybee's position, however, amounts to a complete abdication of judicial oversight. If judges are going to abdicate their role of examining motives of religious animus in a case as egregious as this, then we are truly on the road to presidential unaccountability.
The courts have been looking behind the curtain of Travel Ban 2.0 and they must continue to do so.

Lute Olson: "We hated to see him go. He was really a very popular guy with his teammates and the staff. But what may have done it in the end was that he saw that Jason (Gardner) and Salim (Stoudamire), who were ahead of him a year ago, (were still there) and he felt like he needed to be on the court more. I can certainly understand that. As far as how that effects us, Hassan (Adams) has been playing a lot of two (shooting guard) as well as three (small forward). Chris Rodgers defensively is ready and we're hoping that he'll continue to work hard on the offensive end and just let the game come to him. "
Question: With so much talent on the roster, do you ever prepare for someone's departure?
Olson: "No, you don't. You just take it as it comes. You never know when you're going to have injuries or other things happen. Every year, people say, "with all of that depth..." Very seldom does it work out that there are more (players) than are going to get time. When you look at us this year, a good example is Luke and Salim. How much time have they been limited as a result of injuries. You just hope kids get the big picture instead of the immediate, but that seems to be the trend of the day."
Question: Does Luke Walton jump right back into the starting lineup?
Olson: "If his practices today and tomorrow are such that he's ready to go, then he will be in there. (For Hassan?) I'll surprise you (laughter). I want there to be something to keep you on edge until Thursday (smiling). It's a great accomplishment for the other members of our team to be able to start the (conference) season with two wins. A year ago, we had Luke and got beat by 30 at Oregon."
Question: What are your thoughts on Washington State?
Olson: "We have to be concerned about us and not somebody else. The important thing is that we come out ready to play, and whoever is there, is there. In watching some of their tape, I can see why Washington State is excited about the people they have on board now. Those two guards (Marcus Moore and Thomas Kelati) can play. They're 6-foot-5 and create real match-up problems for you, and yet you think they'll have the same problems at the other end. But they don't, because if they go into a zone, the smallest guy is 6-foot-5. They've done a good job of getting a much better caliber of athlete in there."
Question: Do you anticipate Jason Gardner playing increased minutes now?
Olson: "He'll play whatever is needed. The other thing is that Jason is in such great shape. He plays 35 minutes like other people play 12. Even when you pull him out of the game, you expect him to at least be breathing hard...he's not. He's just in great condition. Part of that is that he pushes himself very hard all the time in practice. You never see him back off when he starts to get tired. He's just a great competitor...He's a warrior. If it were up to him, he'd never come out of the game."
