Discussion in 'Pro Match Results and Discussion' started by tennis_pro, Oct 12, 2012.
Goderer in 2. Also feddy played fantastic today his returns are too good.
A win by SMC Rogi over Berdych would definitely make the end of the season *very* interesting (Djokovic winning over Murray, not so much), but hey, we'll see...
I feel like this one is a toss up, depends on who shows up. Whoever wins will be #1 in February... though I think Nole is very motivated and may win Shanghai and likely year end #1.
Got a dreadful feeling about this one.
This really is a toss-up.
Yesterday I definitely would have picked Murray since Fed wasn't that impressive. But today Murray had to defeat Stepanek (?!) in 3 sets, and was down a break in the 3rd.
As a Fed fan I won't have my hopes up high, just like the Cinci final. If he loses it's alright since 300 weeks is locked already, but might get some surprises.
LOL just no. Cilic was garbage, capiche?
This is impossible to predict. Both can reasonably be described as playing badly, for them. I can't believe their fans might object to that, as it's actually a credit to their abilities that they can be described as playing poorly, but still make it to the semi-finals of a Masters 1000. It's the other players that have been left in their wakes that should be feeling the pain of this observation.
There is a possibility that "tired, wounded" Fed will have a bit more motivation to raise his game in the hope of levelling the H2H with Murray. He wasn't great today, but the match wasn't particularly tough.
It's hard to tell how much Andy's cold has been hampering him. He's plainly not at death's door and some of his tennis has been good, but he was plainly not playing at anything like 100% either. An on form Fed could have taken advantage of his sloppy play from the last couple of days. If Andy has a good night's sleep tonight, aided by a later start tomorrow, he could be much improved.
The comparison with the Olympics (and Wimbledon) are equally irrelevant. This isn't grass, this isn't five sets and Roger is still older than Andy.
The conspiracy theorists will presume that both players have been bluffing, deliberately throwing in some bad games, and sets, and will spring onto the court tomorrow like spring lambs, ready to take their opponent by surprise now they have a match against someone worth playing properly for. In reality, they'll both be motivated to lift their games, and we're just guessing which one can make the least stupid mistakes.
In BO3 masters I favor Murray
Such a coin toss. Depends on which Fed AND which Muzz show up.
OK, update. Murray has an Asian flu. that is why he is playing so bad right now. so don't be surprised if Roger beats him tomorrow. Murray himself said this during the match today.
Asian flu -The category 2 Asian flu pandemic outbreak of influenza A virus originated in China in early 1956, and lasted until 1958. Some authors believe it originated from a mutation in wild ducks combining with a pre-existing human strain.[6] Other authors are less certain.[7] The virus was first identified in Guizhou.[8] It spread to Singapore in February 1957,[9] reached Hong Kong by April, and the US by June. The death toll in the US was about 69,800.[6] Estimates of worldwide deaths caused by this pandemic varies widely depending on source, ranging from one to four million, with WHO settling on "about two million".
Asian flu was of the H2N2 subtype (a notation that refers to the configuration of the hemagglutinin and neuraminidase proteins in the virus) of type A influenza, and an influenza vaccine was developed in 1957 to contain its outbreak.
The Asian flu strain later evolved via antigenic shift into H3N2, which caused a milder pandemic from 1968 to 1969.[10]
Both the H2N2 and H3N2 pandemic strains contained avian influenza virus RNA segments. "While the pandemic human influenza viruses of 1957 (H2N2) and 1968 (H3N2) clearly arose through reassortment between human and avian viruses, the influenza virus causing the 'Spanish flu' in 1918 appears to be entirely derived from an avian source (Belshe 2005)."[11]
Unfortunately, I think that trend is going to shift now in Murray's favor.
What's up with Federer's serve? Going by the stats, he's winning less serve points than usual. Is it the serve itself, or sloppy follow-ups?
Could someone who has watched him play in Shanghai give some info on this?
Murray in 2, something like 6-4 7-5. Federer is just not up to top form yet.
For what it's worth, Murray is 3-1 v Roger in semifinals.
If Roger can win this I will consider it a huge bonus!
Murray has also lost only once to Roger in Masters
Good play Batz I think Rogers only win V Murray in a semi was Cincy in 2009 right? How do you see it going tomorrow?
Hey Ark, you are spot on.
Bookies have Roger as slight favourite - I probably agree with them - Murray hasn't been great this week.
Murray is not on a hot streak at all!! He couldn't even get past Raonic in Tokyo. I think Fed will be extra motivated because of #1 ranking.
Impossible to forger that win because of Sureshs.
I see this match going to Murray favor like 2010 Shanghai. Though both are playing subpar. Murray however picked it up at the end of the Steps match...still look like he was suffering.
Federer was lucky playing Cilic that is still lost in the woods.
Murray in 2.....though Heart says Federer in 3.
As of my vote, Federer is only leading this poll by one vote.
Excuse me while I go make a cup of tea, return, take a sip, widen my eyes and raise my eyebrows, and then curse as I have to spend a fortune repairing my laptop for liquid damage as I spray it in shock.
Well said. It's really impossible to predict.
Yeah I was glad Fed played Cilic rather than Verdasco, because Verdasco might put up a fight but as soon as I saw Cilic through I knew it would be a lock for Fed to the semis. He was in a bad mood after the match against Stan, you can see both players were unhappy and Federer didn't do his usual walk around the court on Thursday. QF match probably let him regroup himself and get his game back. Fed still wasn't looking great though. 6-3 6-4 but still broken twice.
Wow the poll votes went up fast, when I voted it was 70% for Murray.
:-? Maybe Fred's got asian flu, a wonky back, and halitosis.....
Murray in 3 but Federer in 3 is almost as likely.
Murray should take it. Federer has not impressed me so far.
Neither has Murray. This one could go either way.
Oh now Andy has Asian Flu excuse built in. so from now on, everytime he loses, it is his Aisan flu, not that other guy was better.
right on the money.
Sounds just like Fed's mono, doesn't it? :twisted:
Yes, Murray has owned Fed in masters so far: he's won 5 out of their 6 encounters there including the last time they played in Shanghai. The only one Fed has won is Cincy 2009. BTW, Murray HAS TO win his semi tomorrow to keep his winning head to head vs Fed. He's currently up by 9 to 8. But it's gonna be a tough ask if he's actually suffering from the flu.
Or Rafa's knees, foot, overly tightened tape, blisters, roof, quad injury, divorced parents, blue clay, etc.? :lol:
Isn`t murray sick, he has been coughing the whole week
Indeed. Perhaps everyone has their achilles heel (or Rafa's knees)
btw when was the last case of Fed's mono? :lol:
Fed's mono comes and goes, especially during clay season.
Wild heaves? Is Fed sick again?
Then Nadal catches it from him around the indoor season
Yes the real Federer is a stone-cold killer. We all know and admit this, except for ****s.
when was this moment?
Wimby final, 3rd set I think.
So that photo takes Federer out of context since he turns around a second later. Typical Nad-****s trying to incite flame wars.
oh, completely forgot about that..
The Federer age excuse has been built in since circa Wimbledon 2008 (age 26, the same age as Nadal now). You can rest assured that these mid to late eighties born clowns would have fallen into the inescapable sepulcher of defeat along with the likes of Hewitt, Roddick, Nalbandian and Safin had they encountered prime Fed. The only exception is Nadal on clay.
But what about the nebulous and often chilling horrors that beset nadal on a daily basis? Knees/parents' divorce/chair/was just a baby/stove/rusty/bottle misalignment/broken foot ?
I'm amazed Nadal manages to get out of bed, let alone pick up a tennis racket. Just goes to show what a warrior he is, undefeated except when he loses.
but these days all he can do is barely wash his cars and play poker :twisted:
Yeah, and it only takes about 30 seconds for those posts to be effectively repudiated and ridiculed (deservedly). Conversely, the Federer-is-old-prime-Fed-would-own-x counterfactual remains firmly entrenched in TW mythos.
2012 French Open Semifinals....it was worse than Monofed.
What a useless heap of drivel.
So are you implying that Federer ISN'T past his prime and in fact is playing at his absolute physical peak right now? No? Then hush.
Not to mention, Federer in 2008 lost to Roddick, Fish, Simon twice, Karlovic and didn't even make it out of the RR stage at TMC.
Clearly it was all due to Nadal and Djokovic coming into their own.
What you said about Djokovic and the others was quite right: if Djokovic playing his best can only barely win against a 30 year old Federer with terrible fitness, I don't have much hope for him against prime Federer. :lol:

Discussion in 'General Pro Player Discussion' started by FedererDropShot, Apr 29, 2013.
That is because Nadal does not care about the post-season tournaments after the Slams are over
Then why is he playing Basel? Oh I forgot, for the money obviously. Duh. People here need to remember this is business for these guys. Why everyone thinks Federer is a schmuck for wanting big bucks to play Basel but Nadal is humble is hard to figure. who actually thinks Federer doesn't deserve what he asks for when the tickets for the QF, SF and F apparently sold out in 15 minutes after he announced he was playing?
^^^^^ +1. And the seats are empty when Fed isn't playing. Even when Stan and JMDP are playing.
Nadal is not humble because of that. He must also make money to meet his modest needs. He is humble because he spoke to the TD in person, while Fed would only talk to him thru his agent. Isn't that arrogant?
That makes Djokovic and Murray equally humble. Nothing particularly humble about Nadal. He lives the millionaire lifestyle and is proud to not be humble.
Yes they are equally humble
I used to be a bankster. What does that have to do with Open Markets? M&A is rarely about freely available supply & demand and symmetry of information. Usually the rationale is the opposite!
No such thing as Open Market when it comes to Federer and Basel... for open markets think selling various non-essential spices in Turkish bazars in 16th century Ottoman empire.
Boring M&A example, as requested:
In many ways getting Federer to play your tournament is like trying to buy a company (TargetCo) that you really want because it would do wonders for your own bottom line, or inflate your ego (as CEO), however, the bankers of the target company (Federer's agent) know this and want to extract full value*. Thus, it becomes less about what Federer is worth in Open Market terms and more about what he is worth to the tournament and what the tournament can do vis-a-vis Federer's competitors (substitutes), fans (customers) and sponsors (suppliers). i.e. can you buy a competitor of your target instead as a substitute and can you influence key clients/suppliers/regulators of your target company to get TargetCo and it's advisors to accept a lower offer?
Market forces, Supply/Demand have little to do with it. It's more like trading chess pieces than trading baseball cards if you're looking for another contorted metaphor.
* This example is biased. It could very easily be the case that the tournament is trying to get Federer at a discount because they have leverage over his image. Kinda like a version of Greenmail (google it) in some way.
Well Ari Gold*, I mean, Tony Godsick needs to earn his commission somehow... Remember, he's not on IMG's dime anymore...
*I love jeremy piven.
Nothing. You had to throw in the rip on America. Moronic and unnecessary (I see you don't have the stones to list your loc). You do know where TW is based (even if they now sell in EU). Look up 'irony'.
Your description of the 'noble' M&A industry was entertaining. And I am a Capitalist. Capital C.
What on earth is he thinking playing this tournament? On indoor hard of all surfaces.
He's thinking $$$$$$$$$$. No other reason for it.
Market forces are the basic reasons here. Your example is just convoluted and does not the address the main issue. Federer is in demand by the tournament and supply of people like him are limited. That is why they want to get him. His competitor is Nadal who has his own market worth, and the tournament can use him to satisfy their demand to a certain extent.
The market is open because anyone can become a Federer if he has the ability. A closed market would be like a country recruiting only local players for its events, or the local union saying that only their members should be allowed to play. When that is not the case, the market is open.
Fed and Nadal are both in the open market and form the supply. Due to the value of these players, their demand is high. So a statement like 2 mil is outrageous does not make any sense. If it is outrageous, the tournament cannot pay it, and the price will come down. 2 mil sounds like a lot of money, but how many players can hit a forehand like Federer? That is what it boils down to.
People complain that doctors make less money than movie stars. It is not that doctors are being insulted, but whether you will buy a ticket to watch the daily life of a doctor.
I am not saying this is good or bad, but just the way it is.
Why the hell doesn't Nadal ever consider playing Valencia???
Very strange that he would choose a foreign country over his own.
They must have seriously pissed him off somewhere along the way.
Basel is easily the biggest 500 event. Look at the field this year, Rafa, Nole, Murray, Fed. WHo would prefer little known Valencia to this
Maybe a Spaniard?? :-?
Murray and Djoker aren't playing Basel.

|I took the shuttle across the lake and climbed the class 4 NE ridge. I found it to be a very demanding mountain. On a few occasions I thought I was done when I couldn't find a safe enough route to advance on. I recall climbing through a couple tunnels to discover the best path. Similar to Grand Mogul, it was optimal to stay at dirt level and skirt around much of the spiny ridge rather than staying on top. I made the summit, but felt defeated at the same time. The route finding and occasional exposure (I was majorly afraid of heights as kid so there's always some residual there) made for a mentally exhausting day.

|I enjoyed reading your report. You're not kidding on that couloir, it never seemed like it was going to end. We kept thinking that we could turn north up one of those couloirs and it might take us to the saddle just off the west face but thought the description said to go to the saddle off the west of the west pinnacle. Once there, we had to slide down the scree slope several hundred feet, go clear around the west pinnacle and then back up again. We finally made the summit about 6pm and booked it for the upper bench lake before we lost daylight.

|I'd heard the Stur Chimney had a short 5.2 section, so I was cocky enough to head up without a rope and gear. Needless to say, I entered the chimney, thought WTF am I doing?, and headed back down the mountain. A few weeks later I returned with my pal Tony, a rope, and gear. He led the chimney (although I would have if I'd have known it was a sport climb with all the old solid pitons in place). The top is a little scary. I walked out and straddled a section of ridge for a few photos, and could actually make the ridge top creak by squeezing my thighs. That's some loose rock!

|fastandlight and I drove up from Boise Friday night, and caught the last shuttle boat across to the far end of Redfish lake around 8:15. What a great deal - trade 6 dollars to avoid about 5-6 miles of hiking. well worth it!. We started hiking towards flat rock junction. After probably a couple miles at most we started heading up a steep dry drainage on the south east flanks of Heyburn. The draining was mostly class 2 with a couple class 3 sections, but it never flattened out ... ever. It was starting to get dark, and we were looking for a place to bed down. We finally found a ledge where we could bivy I am guessing around 8700 ft. The first bivy for both of us where we actually contemplated tying in, but figured that would be overkill.
In the morning we woke and decided that we would continue up and bring all our gear with the intention of coming down the opposite side via the bench lakes. We had bivied on the right side of the main drainage. Above us, it now split into two steep and narrow drainages. We chose the one on the right as it seemed to be leading in the general direction of the summit based on the quad we had. Class 3 turned to class 4 a few times which made for some fun scrambling. Somewhere around 9300 - 9500 ft, it turned back to class two scree. We could now see the summit tower above, but we were starting to get concerned since we were on the Southeastern flanks instead of where we wanted to be on the west. We had hoped that we would be able to traverse over the ridge to the west side, but that wasn't panning out. We continued up to the highest point next to the summit tower headwall, and realized that there was no getting to the stur chimney from here. We were now standing at what is referred to as the silver saddle. We did not want to backtrack the hundreds of feet down to try and find a way to the west side, and to the north was the steep snow filled north couloir. So here we were litterly less than probably 120 ft from the summit but on the wrong side of the tower.
We contemplated climbing the short East face on the main tower, where there is is a route based on Lopez's book. However neither of us being trad experts could see a good way up the lower section. Supposedly the first 40 ft are the hardest, but there was a section that looked pretty run out for our liking, so we decided not to attempt it.
We then decided to descend the very steep north couloir to the highest bench lake. We set up a rappel and started down. With only one 50 m rope this would be slow. Also Lopez's book described it correctly - full of rotten rock. We did a second rap down to get us onto some 3rd class rock/gravel/mud. We decended another couple hundred feet, where again we had to set up a 3rd rap to go over another cliff. Downclimb more 3rd class shitty rock (the kind where boulders the size of car tires would be suspect) to where the couloir widens to a 50 degree snow field which we then had to downclimb without axe or crampons. Thank God it was warm and we could kick steps in the snow with our trail shoes. It seemed like it took hours (actually it did) to get down this. Physically and mentally draining. So many times I was tempted to glisade, but without anything beyond a hiking pole or a cleaning tool for braking, I thought it would be best to continue the laborious process down.
Finally down to the upper most bench lake, where we took a break and drank water. From there back down to Redfish it was pretty uneventfull. We got back and the boat back at approx 6:30 pm saturday night. We were a bit bummed at getting so close, but after talking to another couple guys who were foiled attempting the northwest ridge and not being able to find the correct route to the summit either we didn't feel so bad. With so many pinacles and ridges on Heyburn it is often hard to get to the top.
Next time would probably approch from the same way, as it seems shorter than going via bench lakes - just have to make sure we get the right drainage this time.

WOODBINE, Ga. - The Brunswick city commissioner charged in connection to the shooting death of a toddler last month turned himself in to Camden County deputies Monday morning for charges from a separate racketeering investigation. The commissioner posted bail late Monday night and released from jail shortly after.
James Brooks faces a six-count grand jury indictment involving soliciting bribes. He is accused of taking money from people in exchange for wiping their criminal records clean. He is also accused of taking money from people to help them get licenses needed to open a business.
When surrendering Monday morning, Brooks was accompanied by two women, and when asked if he had anything to say to his constituents, he would only say, "Good morning."
Brooks' attorney, Alan Tucker, told Channel 4 the charges are taking a toll on his client.
"Well of course he's feeling rather distraught. He hoped that after a year maybe this thing would die down a little bit," said Tucker.
Brooks already spent three weeks in jail last year.
Tucker said the indictment is one-sided, and the truth will come out in court.
Brooks pleaded not guilty at his arraignment Monday afternoon. He was granted $10,000 bond, and conditions include having no contact with witnesses or police and turning in police radios and scanners.
Tucker also asked for a speedy trial for Brooks, and a trial date was set for May 20.
Tucker said he is hoping for a proper verdict. According to the attorney, there's more at stake than Brooks going to jail.
"The sad thing about this is that the commission Brooks is removed from, his office by the governor, that leaves approximately 16,000 Brunswick citizens who will have one less voice in their city government," said Tucker.
Mungin says he thought since Brooks was a city official and the transaction was legit.
"So I waited and waited and nothing transpired, nothing happened," Mungin said. "So I decided to call the authorities."
Brooks' friend, Gary Cook, is coming to his defense.
"Just being a friend of his and knowing him., I think he's a great person, God-fearing person," Cook said.
Brooks was arrested last week in connection with the killing of 13-month-old Antonio Santiago (pictured, above). He was charged with obstruction of law enforcement and influencing a witness.
Santiago was shot and killed on March 21 while his mother pushed him in a stroller in a Brunswick neighborhood. Two teenagers charged with murder in the toddler's death remain in jail.

Hanro Response: We are sorry to hear that you are not completely satisfied with this Cotton soft cup bra. At the moment, Hanro cotton bras are not offered with a fabric covered elastic band. We would suggest that you get professionally measured to alleviate the problem of the back riding up. When the back is riding up, it usually means that the fit is not right.
JGP from
Hanro Response: Not all bras sizes fit the same between manufacturers. And not all bras are going to fit the same on any one person. Everyone has a different shape, and it really becomes evident when it come to fitting bras. The best advice I can give is to get fitted by a professional bra fitter in one of your favorite stores to insure your are wearing proper size.

Macquarie should close investment arm: UBS
Macquarie Group would gain from selling or closing its investment banking and loss-making securities businesses, according to UBS AG, which upgraded Australia's largest investment bank to "buy" from "neutral."
Closing the two units, which were responsible for Macquarie's 2012 profit falling to an eight-year low, or moving to a capital-light advisory model excluding capital markets underwriting, would raise its valuation to $40.42 a share, UBS said. Macquarie shares climbed 0.2 per cent to $35.69 in Sydney trading, giving it a market value of $12.2 billion.
Ongoing losses after bonuses "across its equities and investment banking businesses will inevitably force Macquarie's management and board to reassess its strategy," UBS analysts including Jonathan Mott and Chris Williams said in a note to investors released today. They expect the two units to lose $306 million in the year to March 2013 and not return to profit in the foreseeable future.
Macquarie has joined banks including UBS AG and Credit Suisse Group AG in cutting jobs to save on costs as trading and mergers and acquisitions dwindled, Europe's debt crisis roiled markets and China's economic growth slowed. In Australia, 2012 announced mergers and acquisitions fell to the lowest since 2009, data compiled by Bloomberg showed.
Lisa Jamieson, a Sydney-based spokeswoman for Macquarie, declined to comment on the report.

In early 1904, with the growth of the western end of Carter County, KY, residents there sought to form a new county. They broke away, along with some citizens of Rowan and Elliott counties, to form Beckham County, named for then-Governor John CW Beckham, who signed the legislative act on February 9.
GC Brooks, appointed County Judge, established formal offices, with the county seat in Olive Hill. It wasn't long, though, before legal questions over the formation led to the county being dissolved by state action. Eighty days long, to be exact. On April 29, 1904, the Court of Appeals ruled that the new county failed to meet constitutional standards of size and population. Beckham is the only county in Kentucky to be abolished.
Mt Sterling [KY] Advocate
May 11, 1904 Wednesday
"The legislative act creating the county of Beckham was declared by the Court of Appeals to be unconstitutional and void in that it violates Sections 68 and 64 of that instrument, which sections prohibit the reducing of the area of the counties from which a new county is made, to less than four hundred square miles, their populations to less than 12,000 and the line within ten miles of an old county seat.
"The decision was given by the court in agreed cases of Carter County against Zimmerman and Brooks, here on appeal from the Carter Circuit Court and it is a reversal of that court, which sustained a demurrer and refused to allow the county of Carter to be heard in the matter. The court here says this was an error and remands the cases for further proceedings.
"The lower court practically admitted all the allegations of the petition as to the territory involved, but took the ground that the judicial department of the State government could not go behind the bill creating the new county proposed and inquire into the facts upon which the General Assembly acted.
"The court, in passing upon the question, says that the provisions of the Constitution are as binding upon the General Assembly as upon an individual and as mandatory and that it is proper for the courts to inquire into findings by the Legislature, and it has authority to ascertain whether the provisions of the Constitution as to area. Population and location of lines are followed by the General Assembly in the formation of a new county.
"The allegations of the petition of Zimmerman were that the county of Beckham was created out of parts of the counties of Carter, Elliott and Lewis; that the part taken from Carter county leaves it with only about 250 square miles; that the county line between Beckham and Carter counties, runs within less than two miles of the county seat of Carter county; that Elliot county, before any territory was taken from it had less than 400 square miles and was by the act reduced to far less than that; that the area of Carter County was 354 square miles, the area of Lewis county 454 square miles, and Elliott County 274 square miles; that the new county line runs within six miles of Grayson, the county seat of Carter and within seven miles of Vanceburg, the county seat of Lewis County; that the area of Beckham county does not exceed 286 square miles; that Lewis County is reduced to 300 miles, Elliott to 234 miles; that the population of Beckham county is less than 12,000 and that its establishment reduces Carter and Eliott to less than 12,000 each.
"In discussing the case, the court here in brief says…It is insisted for the appellate that the boundary of the county, as given in the act, will not close and IN FACT TAKES IN PART OF THE STATE OF OHIO…The rule is that the court will inspect the whole act, and if the actual intention of the Legislature can be thus ascertained, the false description will be rejected or words substituted in the place of these used by mistake, so as to give effect to the law. IT IS NOT PRESUMED THAT THE LEGISLATURE INTENDED TO INCLUDE IN THE COUNTY A PART OF THE STATE OF OHIO.
"The constitutional objection to the act is more serious. It is earnestly maintained for appellee that the constitutional restrictions as to area and population or location of the county line are for the guidance of the legislators, and that when the Legislature has acted it is incompetent for the courts to inquire into the correctness of the legislative…
"Carter County had by the geological survey an area of 544 square miles, Elliott County 270 and Lewis County 450; total 1, 264, as given in the official report of the Bureau of Agriculture, so that Carter County can properly contribute only 144 square miles to the formation of a new county, Elliott, nothing and Lewis only fifty square miles. We must therefore take judicial notice that only 194 square miles can on this basis be cut from these counties without infringing the mandate of the Constitution…
"If any of these conditions are wanting, the act is in violation of the Constitution and void. The Circuit Court erred in refusing to allow the petition of Carter County to be filed. He also erred in sustaining the demurrer to plaintiff's petition. Judgment reversed and cause remanded for further proceedings not inconsistent with this opinion."

When the 2012 U.S. Olympic Team gathers in Las Vegas to prepare for London, it will be directed by a head coach who lost in the NCAA tournament's first round to Lehigh, an assistant fired by his NBA team after many players quit on him and an assistant who resigned because his NBA superstar didn't think the offensive scheme afforded adequate scoring opportunity.
There has been no hint that USA Basketball won't retain former Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni or former Trail Blazers coach Nate McMillan as assistants to Duke University coach Mike Krzyzewski. Neither did anything this season that merited the decisions that led to their removal from their respective benches.
Losing to Lehigh? Well, that wasn't as bad as Team USA losing to Greece in the FIBA World Championships in 2006. Krzyzewski was in charge of that team, too.
Ironically, D'Antoni may have survived all the way to the conclusion of the final year on his Knicks contract had he not discovered that Jeremy Lin was perfectly suited to run the up-tempo offense that is predicated on player movement and ball movement.
It worked well when Carmelo Anthony was out, injured. Once Anthony returned, the movement stopped whenever the ball reached his hands. He broke off play after play to create his own offense.
D'Antoni finally had enough and stepped out of his way.
Why some of the Trail Blazers would quit on McMillan, one of the most competitive guys in the league, as both player and coach, always will be a mystery without solution.
"I've always felt when coaches get fired, it often has nothing to do with their abilities but a whole lot more to do with circumstances, which is unfortunate for coaches, but that's usually the rule," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. "All of us in the business know circumstances usually get us. It usually has very little to do with someone doing a poor job. That might happen once in a while, but that's not the case here.
"I've been more lucky than most, as we all know."
Mavericks future Hall of Fame point guard Jason Kidd said Popovich has replaced Jerry Sloan as the NBA coach most clearly in control of his team.
Popovich's own character, not luck, allowed this, even as players have exerted more influence in recent years over player personnel decisions and coaching longevity.
"Everything changes," Kidd said. "The game changes, so maybe players and coaches change too. Sloan was the ultimate blueprint of coaching, and Pop has now taken that throne in the sense that he's the blueprint of demanding his players. From star to 14th guy, he treats them all the same."
Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle is president of the NBA Coaches Association, so he takes every dismissal a little harder than most of his colleagues.
The mere suggestion the Trail Blazers forced McMillan's ouster by quitting on him, or that Anthony's clash with D'Antoni forced the coach's resignation, is anathema to his very love of the game.
Don't these latest coaching changes offer proof players now have power beyond the traditional player-coach dynamic?
"I don't view it that way," Carlisle said. "I view the game as a beautiful thing. To me, it's all about a group trying to come together. I don't get into the negative thinking aspect of it because that would taint my love and respect for the game, and I'm not going to do that."

The goal of the next outing for a Durango man with a passion for adventure is to repay one good deed with another.
Collin Vlass, 28, a 2001 graduate of Durango High School, on Monday started in Loveland a 1,200 mile bicycle ride to raise money for the Alzheimer's Association to honor his grandfather, Norman.
Normal Vlass, an organizer and mainstay of the Relay for Life in Loveland, died of Alzheimer's at age 77 in June last year.
"In the 11 years before he died, the Loveland relay raised $1 million for the American Cancer Society," Vlass said. "I want to carry the torch, to continue his legacy of giving.
"My grandfather went elk hunting the year before he received the diagnosis of Alzheimer's," Vlass said. "The end came very quickly after that."
Vlass' Loveland-to-Durango route will trace the double keyhole-shaped Alzheimer's Association logo.
Adventure is nothing new to Vlass, who quit his job at La Plata Millworks in Mancos recently to train for his upcoming trip. He spent 4½ years seeing the world.
"I had saved money from my job with the Chema Hotshots fire crew in Alaska," Vlass said. "Then I sold everything I had and moved into my backpack."
Travel took him to Central and South America, Australia, Asia and Europe.
"My trip now will be entirely in Colorado," he said. "It will be my first road trip because I've always been a mountain biker."
Vlass plans to camp along the road, stopping to fly-fish or visit people with Alzheimer's.
The duration of the ride is open-ended, but Vlass expects to arrive in Durango in about a month.
He already has raised almost $1,700 from friends and family.
Zia Taqueria, Durango Cyclery and Velorution Cycles have helped with trip expenses.
The Loveland Reporter-Herald reported on Vlass' departure Monday.
Vlass left from his grandmother's house wearing a T-shirt that read: "Miles fueled by hope."
"I'm carrying my grandfather's torch, you could say," Vlass told the newspaper.
Vlass has GPS on his bicycle, which will allow people to track him through his website and give him the ability to send emails home and alert the police if he's in trouble.
"I like adventure, and I like to wing it," Vlass told the Reporter-Herald.
He told the newspaper he won't have support from a vehicle.
"It's not a race; I want to enjoy myself, as well," he said.
His grandmother told the newspaper he has always been adventurous.
"He's got this wandering, go-for-it spirit," she said. "It was quite a surprise when he said he wanted to do this for Grandpa."

The latest release from Manchester, UK electronic producer Andy Stott is a masterful set of dark techno/house rhythms that find him working for the first time with a vocalist (his former piano teacher Alison Skidmore), a decision that results in his most accessible, inviting, accomplished album to date. While his trademark ominous and atmospheric textures are still present, his churning mid-tempo beats are at their most thrilling and his arrangements of Skidmore's hauntingly beautiful vocals are consistently surprising and seductive. 11/2/2012 - Alex

Hey guys, have a question here, just wondering if anyone can give me some insight on this problem. Im running a SGI Fuel Box runnin IRIX 6.5 with a 2 TB Raid Infortrend.
Anyways i got a file I/O error on one of the disks, the raid said it was a bad block read on disk 7. So i removed the disk, and it seemed to start reconstructing the data on disk 1 (backup disk). However the system crashed durring the reconstruction. So i brang the system back up, and raid was still mounted.
Now the real problem ... The raid disk has only 1% used !!! when it should have about 1.4 TB used. Apperently someone really wrong has happened. But im sure the data is still there. Is there anyway to get that data back, or rebuild that filesystem so it can see the lost data ?
Any help would be appreciated.

Towards a Better Journalism Career Path
Journalism legend Charles Pierce makes a great god damn point in a new interview: the idea that a good writer will automatically make a good editor is a farce. The journalism job ladder is broken. What is to be done?
This problem is endemic to journalism. Most people enter the field as writers; but being a good writer is no guarantee you'll be any good at editing, or at the business side. But there's nowhere else to be promoted! So up the ladder go writers, to the unfortunate great unknown. Let us try to imagine a better world, in which journalism could use employees based on their particular talents.
Job: Writer
Ideal Education: Truancy; hoboism; a wisecracking, self-educated college dropout; or, at most, a philosophy major.
Personality Type: Introverted, socially awkward genius (for writing-heavy jobs); or, smooth-talking con man (for reporting jobs. There are always rewrite men).
Previous Experience: Rode the rails for a while; wrote a novel down in Mexico, but lost it in a Juarez poker game; small-time drug dealer gone straight; assistant librarian.
Next Job: Bartender.
Job: Editor
Ideal Education: Ph.D. in Mathematics; Copyeditor's Academy certificate of completion;
Personality Type: a Rain Man-like grammar and language obsessive with a poet's soul and the ego-stroking abilities of a master politician—though free of personal ego. (This type is rarely found in nature.)
Previous Experience: Crossword puzzle constructor; lowly copy editor; writer (competent but not great); psychologist.
Next Job: Buddhist monk.
Job: Publisher
Ideal Education: Wharton MBA; Harvard Law; Barnard gender studies major, undergrad.
Personality Type: Stone cold hustler.
Previous Experience: Started up and ran a few wildly successful companies but money for money's sake just wasn't fulfilling, you know? I needed to know that that money was producing something worthwhile, like journalists who could pay their rent.
Next Job: Cub reporter
Job: Media mogul
Ideal Education: Tutored privately by Plato and Descartes, in the castle.
Personality Type: Gentle despot; kindly monarch; benign and loving ruler of all he beholds; enjoyer of false adulation.
Previous Experience: Papa gave him $1 million to invest with to "learn the market" at the age of 12.
Next Job: Dead guy.

You can set a shutdown temperature via the BIOS on most decent motherboards. You can also easily script this up if you have some power control unit connected to a node that you can talk to (e.g. APC's stuff). All of the stuff you need it available as Opensource. You can hook all of this together with Ganglia if you want. In fact, Matt has announced (or hinted) at the next version of Ganglia that will start to have a number of new features built in (but not nodal shutdown if I remember correctly).

Here is the recap of the Cubs minor league system from 5/17/12, enjoy.
One day after seeing their five game winning streak end the Peoria Chiefs got right back into the win column beating Clinton 4-3. Patrick Francescon was tremendous once again for Peoria going six innings and only allowing one unearned run on two hits. Francescon improves to 5-1 on the season while lowering his ERA to a sparkling 1.86. Pin-Chieh Chen went 2-for-5 at the plate, while Marco Hernandez went 2-for-3 with a triple, a walk, and two runs scored.
Palm Beach jumped on Daytona early and often en route to an 8-2 victory. Zach Cates struggled yet again as he surrendered four runs, three earned in 2 and 2/3rds innings. Cates falls to 0-6 on the season with his ERA sitting at a robust 10.50. Cates didn't really get much help from his offense either as the D-Cubs only put up two runs on four hits. Greg Rohan was 2-for-3 at the plate with a walk, a triple and a run scored. Nelson Perez added his 6th home run of the season.
Brooks Raley was really good again for the Smokies as he went five strong innings to pick up his second win of the season in a 3-2 victory over Mississippi. The Smokies didn't have a lot of offense but three runs on five hits was just enough. James Adduci was 2-for-4 at the plate with two runs scored as he raised his average to .306 on the season. Logan Watkins provided the big hit for the Smokies, a two-run single in the 5th inning to put Tennessee up for good.
It was a prospect showcase tonight in Iowa as the I-Cubs beat Salt Lake 7-5. Anthony Rizzo, Brett Jackson, and Josh Vitters all went deep in the victory. I should probably stop writing about Rizzo hitting home runs every night, it should just be assumed. Dave Sappelt was 2-for-4 at the plate with a double and two runs scored. Back to Jackson, he finished the night a double short of the cycle going 3-for-4 with an RBI and two runs scored. Travis Wood was really good, and might have earned a call up to the Cubs rotation after his effort and Volstad's horrid start. Wood went seven strong innings only allowing two runs on five hits while walking just one.

Show your support for economic justice, civil liberty, environmental responsibility and a return to prudence in foreign policy with one of these liberal lapel stickers from Irregular Times. These stickers aren't meant to hang out on your car forever. At 1.5 inches and 2.5 inches in size, they're too wee for that (and they aren't waterproof either, in case you were wondering, although you can change that with a handy-dandy can of waterproofing spray) But they're perfect for your lapel, for a bulletin board, or your school notebook, or your backpack, or a dozen other places we're sure you can think of. This is a great way to start a conversation.
Each of the lapel stickers we offer below are professionally designed and printed in the USA by, well, us. The cost you see below already includes shipping and handling costs -- no tricksy extra charge at the end! Our smaller 1.5 inch lapel stickers come in sheets of 20, and our larger 2.5 inch lapel stickers come in sheets of 12, so we sell stickers in multiples of that amount. The more sheets you buy, the greater the discount we offer! No matter how many stickers you buy, you can rest assured that our cost per sticker is quite lower than the cost of lapel stickers offered through CafePress and Zazzle. Go ahead, check and see for yourself.
To get your own little piece of progressive free speech going, just click on the image of each sticker design you are interested in to add it to your shopping cart. Your payment will be processed securely and safely via PayPal, and we'll ship your package using the U.S. Postal Service (which unlike UPS and FedEx doesn't have a history of sending political contributions to the Republican Party).

Diamondbacks 7, Giants 6: Giants appear snake-bit
Family obligations kept me from watching the Giants on Sunday. And apparently, that was a good thing.
When I checked the score and saw the Giants ahead 6-0, I thought all was well with Matt Cain on the mound.
But things went downhill from there, and now the Giants are 0-3 for the first time in more than 25 years.
And we get to look forward to Barry Zito pitching on Monday in Colorado.
That's because the Giants have no better option. Eric Surkamp received clearance to throw on Sunday, but he won't be ready to pitch in game situations until early May.
If you want to read all the gory details of Sunday's loss, check out Andrew Baggarly's report.
Pitching and fielding has been a bigger issue than hitting so far this season, as the Giants are averaging almost 5 runs a game. However, there is a definite split in production in the lineup.
Hitters Nos. 1-5 in the starting lineup are 17 for 63 (.270).
Hitters Nos. 6-8 are 3-31 (.098). That includes Brandon Belt, who 1 for 10 with five strikeouts.
All right time to break some silver linings somewhere:
- Buster Posey hit his first home run Sunday since April 24 of last year. Good to see.
- The Giants are one of five 0-3 teams in the majors, joining the Red Sox, Yankees, Twins and Braves. So at least misery has good company.
- Freddy Sanchez took infield practice, and by all accounts, looked significantly better than before he was shut down in spring training. Sanchez should start at rehab assignment some time this week with Fresno, then he needs to be activated with 20 starts of starting the assignment. So he could be back anytime between 1-3 weeks.
The Giants open a three-game series at Colorado. Barry Zito faces Jhoulys Chacin at 1 p.m. Monday. And we'll be watching … and hoping.

Cauda Equina Syndrome
What Is Cauda Equina Syndrome? Definition
Patient Comments Read 19 Comments
The spinal cord extends from the brain down through the spinal canal inside the vertebral column. Nerves that branch off of the spinal cord (also called nerve roots) are an extension of the spinal cord and are responsible for sending signals to and from the muscles and other structures throughout the body. These signals allow the brain to interpret information from the body including pain, touch, and sense of position. Outgoing signals allow the brain to control actions of the organs and muscle movements.
The spinal cord ends near the first lumbar vertebra in the lower back, forming the conus medullaris. The fibrous extension of the spinal cord is the filum terminale. The bundle of nerve roots below the conus medullaris is named the cauda equina (see Multimedia File 1).
Compression or inflammation of the nerve roots can cause symptoms of pain, altered reflexes, decreased strength, and decreased sensation. Although these symptoms can become severe, and in some cases disabling, most are self-limiting and respond to conservative care.
An extreme version of nerve compression or inflammation is cauda equina syndrome. Cauda equina syndrome is a serious condition caused by compression of the nerves in the lower portion of the spinal canal (see Multimedia File 2). Cauda equina syndrome is considered a surgical emergency because if left untreated it can lead to permanent loss of bowel and bladder control and paralysis of the legs.

Vans Steve Caballero 20th Anniversary Half Cab Shoes2012 marks the 20th anniversary of the release of the Half Cab, and to commemorate the shoe's awesomeness, Vans will be releasing an OG colorway of it each month throughout the year. It's no surprise that most pros with a pro model shoe have skated the Half Cab at some point in their careers, and because its classic design uses suede uppers on a mid-top design and a vulcanized sole construction with Vans waffle grip, this is the ideal shoe for every realm of skateboarding, which Steve himself has mastered.

Flying to Moscow: This blog report is about a three-hour flight. I will give you an insight into how pilots spend their time in the cockpit of an A321 during one specific flight. Welcome to the flight deck!
Three hours to go:
Moscow is quite a long flight for a short-haul pilot. On the ground we conduct the flight preparation. Weather consultation, fuel planning, take-off speed calculations, outside aircraft check, cockpit preparation and emergency briefings are just a few aspects of our ground duties.
It's true that a few minutes after take-off, we engage the autopilot. This, however, is not the end of our work! Our autopilot is unable to think, to see, to be creative, to react promptly or to talk to the air traffic controllers. That is our work. And the autopilot must be managed. It might be like handling twenty different cruise controls in a car. For instance, we talk to the controllers and are instructed to climb to 20,000 feet. At the same time we have to avoid a thundercloud and decrease speed due to traffic. We then turn different knobs that command the autopilot that steers the aircraft. The autopilot would not be able to react to these challenges independently. Those knobs tell the autopilot how high we want to fly, how fast we want to climb, which direction we want to go and at what speed we want to fly. So, we tell it during the whole flight what we want to do.
Two hours to go:
Once at cruising altitude, it is possible that our workload decreases a bit. This is the time to get the latest weather information of the en-route and destination airports. We reconsider any specialities we might expect on this flight. The instruments have to be checked periodically and a fuel check must be done to determine if we have lost any fuel. And of course, we do have time to eat some "Swiss"-chocolate or a small meal. We often drink a lot of coffee and talk about all possible topics – be it the new flight procedures, world politics or holiday plans. The cabin crew is also of utmost importance to us during such a flight. We want to know how they're doing in the cabin. How passenger-crew relations are developing and if they have noticed anthing unusual (either passenger behaviour or technical matters).
The last hour:
Moscow is known to be an airport with unforeseeable arrival routes. At many airports, we know more or less what we can expect. Not in Moscow though. Therefore, it is worth looking at the arrival charts early enough. We talk about all the different options. But usually we don't know which arrival route and runway we will be given until the very end of the flight. So we try to stay as flexible as possible. We expect the unexpected. Again, we get the latest weather information. Twenty minutes before landing, the pilot informs passengers about the remaining flight time and current weather conditions in Moscow. Now starts another considerably stressful phase of the flight – 15 minutes to go. We constantly calculate our vertical profile (too high? too low?) and talk to many different air traffic controllers. Finally, we are guided by them to a runway where the ILS (Instrument Landing System) has to be intercepted at the right altitude and heading. The flaps (on the wing) and the landing gear are extended. We disengage the autopilot. One of us (either the Commander or the First Officer) then lands the 74-ton Airbus A321 manually. Pedal breaking and reverse thrust slow down the aircraft. We taxi to the gate and say goodbye to our passengers. The return flight to Zurich departs 40 minutes later!

Core analyses from the Ordovician Macasty shale in two wells on Anticosti Island, Que., "are impressive and compare favorably with producing wells from the Utica formation that occurs in the Eastern Ohio region" and are "very positive indicators for the potential production of hydrocarbons from the Macasty formation," said Corridor Resources Inc., Halifax.
The Macasty formation is the lateral equivalent of the Utica formation in eastern Ohio, Corridor noted. The Petrolia/Corridor Princeton Lake and High Cliff wells on Anticosti Island were drilled in the fall of 2012. Corridor and Petrolia hold 1.5 million gross acres of licenses on the Island.
The wells intersected 90 m and 57 m, respectively, of highly organic Macasty formation. The cores were sampled at 50-cm intervals. Weatherford analyzed the Princeton Lake core and TerraTek examined the High Cliff core.
The results provided an average of 4% total organic carbon in both wells. It is important to note that TOC averaged 5.5% through a 10-m section at the High Cliff well, with the highest TOC measured at 7.1%. Princeton Lake TOC averaged 6% through a 10-m section with the highest TOC measured at 7.5%.
The results include hydrocarbon saturation levels as measured by the S1 (free hydrocarbons in pore spaces) at an average of 5.7 mg/g at Princeton Lake and 4.6 mg/g at High Cliff through the 10-m sections. The analyses also confirmed the Macasty formation is in the oil window at both wellsites.
Corridor will provide updates on further analytical results from the three wells drilled in the 2012 Petrolia/Corridor program on the island as they become available. The results will be helpful in determining locations for the next stage of the resource development program on Anticosti.
Corridor intends to engage Sproule Associates Ltd. to update the Anticosti Macasty resource estimate that was effective June 1, 2011 (OGJ Online, Sept. 4, 2012).
