we have 3 great new coaches at UGA.. Grantham, Lagotos, and Belin… Al Groh may need some help ????
June 24th, 2010
6:41 am
D.D. time will tell who has the best coaches .5 months of time.
June 24th, 2010
6:44 am
One of these hacks will probably lead the team in tackles because the front 7 is getting knocked around like a pinata. So the Georgia Tech defense will be better Doug? Old Man Groh's defense gave up 30+ points SIX times last year at Virginia. Yeah, big pick up Techies. He's a genius.
Is this the Tech fan blog?
June 24th, 2010
7:14 am
I love comments who support a mascot that licks his butt and his private areas as the most significant thing they do, beside eating and crapping. Oh well, once again they have to say something about Tech, because we dominate their life, every waking moment of their life. I wonder if they blog in Gainesville, FL, but probably not, as they would pee in their pants just showing up there. Al Groh wasn't the defensive coach of Virginia, and if you want to say something about his head coaching abilities, that I wouldn't argue. However, his knowledge of defense is not questioned even at the NFL level. Now was UGA's coach in the NFL, oh yeah, the one that quit there coaches the Falcons.

Dawgfan, did you mean the Dogs? What positions did Reshad Jones and Brandon Boykin play last year? They were in the top 4 for tackles for your team and it appears to me that they play in the secondary. With Curran gone, I expect the tackles by your safeties and corners will go up.
June 24th, 2010
7:28 am
dawgfan…opps, I know you didn't mean to say Groh's defense last season.
June 24th, 2010
8:03 am
This appears to be the strongest position on the defense – both in terms of talent and depth. Reid, Reese, and Tarrant have all played CB, so in any kind of nickle package, you may see 3 safeties on the field.
June 24th, 2010
8:27 am
Lot of talent and experience at the safety position. The competition alone will make the position better. Wouldn't be surprised to see Groh play 3 safeties in certain situations with 1 of them playing an outside linebacker position. Talk more Georgia Tech football at: http://www.bbuzzoff.com

Thanks for caring so much doggies. You guys are up at 6am just itching to get your jollies on a tech blog then hoping someone responds so you can feel like you accomplished something today. I almost feel sorry for you.

So cute- uga fans posting on a Tech blog at 8am. "You guys love us, you really really love us!".
Still funny that the only thing that matters to a uga fan in life is beating tech. Hey, here's an idea- use some of that negative junior high girl-hate on Florida fans. Maybe you will reverse the curse in Jax.
June 24th, 2010
9:18 am
Navigator…..UGA mascot and UGA fans….both pretty much do the same significant things.
June 24th, 2010
9:20 am
One of the strongest positions on the team, even with the loss of Morgan Burnett. Cooper Taylor should return full strength, and he is bigger (6′4″ 209) and faster (sub 4.4 40) than his former starting partner.
The Spring roster lists Tarrant at CB. Rainman's posts points out the versatility of some players who are big and physical. Hidden in that versatility is the problems that Dave Wommack had in shuffling people around to find a functioning unit. The starters at safety (Burnett listad as Rover) by game reads:
Taylor Taylor Taylor Reid Reid Reid Reese Reese Reese Edwards Edwards Edwards Edwards Edwards
Reid started 4 or the last 6 games at CB. Reese started the 1st 3 at OLB.
Wommack started with 3-3 defense, but it had to be switched to a simplified 4-3 early on.
Hopefully Groh's tutelage can turn this defensive backfield around.
June 24th, 2010
9:22 am
The safety position will be very strong for us…I can't wait to see Tarrant continue to develop.
June 24th, 2010
9:22 am
Jerrard was burned a lot as a cover corner last year but looked good as a safety in practices and scrimmages this spring. Isaiah also looked like he could challenge for playing time. Definitely the most experienced part of the D. With any amount of improved pressure from Groh's play calling, we should see the team INTs grow this year.
June 24th, 2010
9:36 am
Look like Tech will be ACC champ again, while dawgs finish SEC East 2nd place(a sure thing more than anything else).
June 24th, 2010
9:38 am
Dawg fans,
If your new DC is so great, why was he at best your foruth choice? He has never been a DC at any level. Groh has at ebery level, including in the Super Bowl.
You guys are so full of crap, it is a wonder you can get on-line.

Stanley in Marietta…… Just be glad your not in the SEC…. and have to play the Gators… and all the rest….not many posts on your blog.. 1/2 empty stadium with a huge Atlanta metro area !!! Grand Pa Groh may need some help ????

9:41 am
You know you've gotten through to a Techie when they start hiding behind Florida like little girls. The next step is for them to start talking starting salaries and US News and World Report rankings. That's when you know your work is done. Its the saddest thing you will ever see in your life and very hilarious.
No Techies, we don't have much to say to Florida. Know why? Because they beat us like a damn drum. What exactly is it about this whole bragging rights thing that you nimrods cannot comprehend? Its really very simple. We run our mouths about Tech because we CAN. Don't blame us. Blame your team that can't beat us more than once every 9 years. If you're looking to point fingers and whine, which you are because that's what Techies do, point the finger at them. Not us.
June 24th, 2010
9:42 am
Two biggest issues with our secondary…
1) Derrick is gone, so our pass rush will be weaker, putting more pressure on the secondary. As was noted above, last season we gave up too many big plays even with Burnett in the lineup. This season it will be worse, unless some serious pass rushers emerge. UGA, for instance, will have a beast of an OL, even better than the one that really pushed us around last season…Murray will have all day to throw to the likes of A.J. Green if we don't get someone on the DL to step up.
2) Our secondary don't face a great passer (sorry, no offense Nesbitt) or great passing attack in practice. So will they be prepared? What the heck are they going to do when we go up against Harris from Miami, or Ponder from FSU, or Wilson from NC St.? Just some thoughts….not trying to be too negative.
June 24th, 2010
9:44 am
The safeties at Tech will be exposed by the U
June 24th, 2010
9:48 am
Potentially the best group of safeties at the flats in a long while. Tarrant has effortless speed to burn.
Grantham? UGA may have the worst coaching staff in the SEC or ACC and going downhill fast.
Tech is catching up. Tennessee continues to beat UGA. UGA is watching LSU, Florida, and Alabama's tail lights as those schools pull away. Auburn will be better this year. UGA is about like South Carolina now. Even Kentucky can beat UGA nowdays.

sad that dawg fans feel teh need to come on a GEORGIA TECH blog and brag about teams that georgia plays.
they seldom even brag about their own team anymore, just about how awesome the sec is, even if they contribute nothing to that.
must be a miserable existence, but i bet most of the georgia fans on this GEORGIA TECH blog don't even realize how sad they look/sound/are.

so i was just wondering if there was any reason in particular that u haven't killed yourself yet.

I do my good deed by writing comments that bring Tech fans back to Reality.
June 24th, 2010
10:42 am
I don't think it could be much worse than last season. I think coaching all of those guys together will help. I saw a lot last season where those guys weren't on the same page. I think Tarrant to safety will be good. I think the schemes will help as well. The fact that they have starters back is good. The front 7 will be key as well. Like I said before, your back is only as good as your front. Can't cover forever. The Kansas game will give people a good look at the secondary. They are really the only pass happy team on the schedule. Miami may fit that bill as well. Should be interesting to watch. Can't wait to get it rolling.
Reaity Stinks..you want to talk about reality? How bout 30 years of reality? Go find yourself a Gator blog to talk smack on…

Hey Destin…GT beats the same teams UGA is able to beat every year…MSU and Vandy! It's not even UF that they can't beat, UT put half a hun on them, and UK beat them too. Become relevant in the East, then come run your mouth. So UGA owns a Technical Institute…GT owns Duke. See….sounds silly doesn't it?

1980…..1990. GT will always be closer to a NC than UGA. As long as there's UF and Bama, there's no NC in your future. Accept that.
June 24th, 2010
11:05 am
The sad Reality is neither will there be for Tech since your friend UPI is out of the picture
P.S You have never heard me say that Mark Richt will lead UGA to the promise land. I think Richt is a great person and a decent coach, but not on the level of Saban and Meyer. I live in Reality thats what is sad about you Techies, you bring in a gimmick coach who wins some ball games, barely beats a sorry coached UGA team two yrs ago and now you people think your well on your way to a NC and future dominance over UGA. Come to reality my friends.
June 24th, 2010
11:06 am
dawgfan – The beating Florida puts on you loser dawgtards every year doesn't compare with the Tech/GA series. You lose by 25 every year to Florida, thats why we say they OWN UGAy. What's the cumulative score of the FL/UGAy games the last 10 years, 20 years? You Dawgtards have had a nice run against us, yes you have, but you don't own us like Florida owns you. Just the facts!
June 24th, 2010
11:22 am
Jerrard Tarrant is a playmaker, plain and simple. Both Edwards and Taylor can show up and change an enitre game. This is proven.
Again, the main question is can Groh teach his defense? If he can, and the Jackets end up with 2 or more extra posessions a game, don't expect too many losses.
June 24th, 2010
11:27 am
Ah, Reality is playing the UPI conspiracy theory on the whole Tech NC. You are truly a breath of foul, fetid air. Ask him about his other conspiracies.

I only read the GT fans comments, you other people that make this your full time job I skip over yours, honestly can you people not get a life? Why is the Tech football team the main focus on your day every day? Ever thought about going to a fitness center? Spend some time with underpriveleged kids or something, geez

WAUSAU, Wis (WSAU) An alternative high school program that's operated in downtown Wausau since 1972 will shut down later this year. There isn't enough money to keep the Storefront Learning Center open.
The school has a staff of three. They pay two full-time teachers. A third tutor is funded through the AmeriCorps program. There are 23 students enrolled.
School organizers say they hope to stay open through the end of the school year so 11 students can get their diplomas. The school will help the remaining students transition to other high school programs.
The learning center might stay open if additional funding can be found.

Favorite Vanilla Cupcakes
I love coming up with creative new cupcake flavors. And I love being served creative new cupcake flavors. But at the end of the day, if given a choice between, well, pretty much any kind of cupcake and a vanilla cupcake, that delicious little white cupcake almost always wins.
I don't know what it is about it, but I love a good vanilla cupcake. Always have. Always will.
But I feel like I need to make a confession. When it came to homemade, I was a closet "box mix" girl for years. Yep. Would show up to a party with "homemade "vanilla cupcakes, and everyone would oooh and ahhh and think that they were from some fancy homemade recipe. But the reality was that I had just never been able to find a recipe that rivaled the taste, texture and (admittedly) the ease of a box mix…until now.
I think I have finally figured out my favorite homemade vanilla cupcake!! And I kind of wanna shout it from the rooftops, because this recipe is amazing!!! It has all of the wonderful vanilla flavor and the light texture of a box mix. But it happens to be made from scratch with all normal everyday ingredients, plus a vanilla bean and some Greek yogurt. Easy peasy. And to stay pure, I topped these with a classic vanilla buttercream.
It doesn't get any more "vanilla" than that, people! But if you're like me, you will love it too. Enjoy!
Favorite Vanilla Cupcakes
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 vanilla bean, seeds scraped
- 1 3/4 cups cake flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1/3 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream (avoid non-fat versions of either)
- 1 Tbsp. vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup whole milk
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1 Tbsp. vanilla extract
- 1 vanilla bean (optional)
- 3-4 Tbsp. milk or heavy cream
Preheat oven to 350 F (175 C).
Add granulated sugar and vanilla bean to the bowl of a stand mixer, and beat on medium speed for about 30 seconds until blended. Add in the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt, and beat for an additional 1 minutes until well-mixed. Add butter and mix on medium-low speed for about 2 minutes until well combined and a little crumbly.
In a separate small mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, Greek yogurt (or sour cream), and vanilla extract until smooth. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and beat on medium speed until just combined.
Slowly add milk and mix on low speed until just combined. The batter will be very thin and liquid.
Fill cupcake liners just over 1/2 full. Bake for 14 minutes and then test to see if they are done. They are done when a toothpick comes out without wet batter stuck to it. Remove and let cool on a cooling rack. Once the cupcakes have reached room temperature, frost with the Vanilla Buttercream Frosting (recipe below).
Add the butter to the bowl of a stand mixer and beat for 1 minute on medium speed until smooth. Add the powdered sugar, salt, vanilla extract, the seeds of a vanilla bean and about 2 Tbsp. milk and reduce speed to low. Beat for a minute or so until the sugar no longer sprays. Then increase speed to medium high and beat for an additional minute until smooth. Add an extra tablespoon or two of the milk if you need a thinner frosting.

'Sinner's Prayer' among proposed resolutions

UPDATED 6/14/12, 9:30 a.m. See section on proposed resolution about Mormonism.
NEW ORLEANS (BP) -- The Sinner's Prayer, same-sex marriage and civil rights, and "racist statements" in Mormon documents are among the topics being discussed in various media about resolutions that pastors state they submitted for the Southern Baptist Convention's Resolution Committee to consider in preparation for the June 19-20 annual meeting in New Orleans.
Five proposals have been publicized and posted through three media outlets -- The Christian Index provided coverage for Eric Hankins' "A Sinner's Prayer" on May 31; the Florida Baptist Witness carried a news story April 30 on Chris Roberts' "Resolution on a Spirit of Cooperation in Missions and Evangelism Despite Theological Differences" and a blog site, SBC Voices (
), posted three proposed resolutions by Dwight McKissic, one of which was co-authored by Eric Redmond.
Roger S. Oldham, vice president for convention communications and relations with the SBC Executive Committee, differentiated resolutions that will be proposed by the Resolutions Committee at the annual meeting from those released to the public by their respective writers.
"No resolution submitted to the Resolutions Committee has 'standing' with the convention until it is first considered and then introduced by the committee to the messengers at the SBC annual meeting's Wednesday morning session. There is no certainty that any proposal, even those being discussed in the media prior to the annual meeting, will be brought forward by the committee."
According to SBC Bylaw 20, the Committee on Resolutions "shall prepare and submit to each annual meeting of the Convention only such resolutions the Committee recommends for adoption." It also states, "Only resolutions recommended by the Committee may be considered by the Convention, except the Convention may, by a 2/3 vote, consider any other resolution properly submitted to the Committee."
A proposal titled "On the 'Sinner's Prayer'" by Eric Hankins, pastor of First Baptist Church in Oxford, Miss., was publicized by The Christian Index in Georgia. Hankins notes there is "no one uniform wording found in Scripture or in the churches for a 'Sinner's Prayer,' the prayer of repentance and faith," yet it is "biblically appropriate to help a sinner in calling on the Lord for salvation."
A sinner's prayer, Hankins states, "is not an incantation that results in salvation merely by its recitation and should never be manipulatively employed or utilized apart from a clear articulation of the Gospel."
Hankins would have the convention go on record affirming the use of a sinner's prayer as a "biblically sound and spiritually significant component of the evangelistic task of the church."
In an article posted May 31, Gerald Harris, editor of The Index, quoted David Platt, pastor of The Church at Brook Hills in Birmingham, Ala., as saying at a recent conference, "Many people in our churches are simply missing the life of Christ, and a lot of it has to do with what we have sold them as the Gospel. [For example], 'Pray this prayer, accept Jesus into your heart, invite Christ into your life.' Should it not concern us that there is no such superstitious prayer in the New Testament?"
Platt, in comments to Baptist Press, said, "Any cautions I have expressed about what many have called the 'Sinner's Prayer' are deeply motivated by a concern for authentic conversion and regenerate church membership -- convictions that are central tenets of Baptist theology. ... Do I believe it is 'wrong' for someone to pray a 'prayer of salvation'? Certainly not. Calling out to God in prayer with repentant faith is fundamental to being saved (Romans 10:9-10)."
God desires "all people's salvation (2 Peter 3:9)," Platt told BP. But he is concerned about a relatively large number of people in churches who "thought they were saved because they prayed a certain prayer, but they lacked a biblical understanding of salvation and were in reality not saved."
"This ... leads me to urge us, as we go to all people among all nations with the good news of God's love, to be both evangelistically zealous and biblically clear at the same time (Matthew 28:18-20)," Platt said.
Other potential resolutions circulating in Baptist papers and other media include:
-- A "Resolution on a Spirit of Cooperation in Missions and Evangelism Despite Theological Differences" by Chris Roberts, pastor of Immanuel Baptist Church in Panama City, Fla. Noting that the nation and world "continue in a state of moral and spiritual crisis," Roberts celebrates Southern Baptists' cooperation in the work of missions.
If Roberts' submitted resolution is brought forward to messengers in its current form, it would affirm "the right and responsibility of individuals to read and seek to understand their Bibles" and affirms that the convention "cannot dictate what churches must teach and believe." The proposal affirms the autonomy of local congregations to hold "confessions of faith which may address matters not contained in, yet consistent with, the Baptist Faith and Message."
Roberts told the Florida Baptist Witness the goal of the proposed resolution is to "reduce some of the tension that currently exists" in the SBC, and he acknowledged that Calvinism is the "primary issue behind" the resolution.
"The resolution would help accomplish this goal by providing a public declaration that Southern Baptists will cooperate with other Southern Baptists even if we do not see eye-to-eye on all matters of theology," Roberts said.
The Witness described Roberts as a Calvinist who pastors a predominantly non-Calvinist church. The church affirmed the statement submitted as a resolution.
"It is my hope and prayer that the Southern Baptist Convention continues to leave Calvinism as a matter of conscience, where fully cooperating Southern Baptists are free to be Calvinists or non-Calvinists," Roberts told the Witness.
-- A "Resolution on Same-Sex Marriage and Civil Rights," jointly written by Dwight McKissic, pastor of Cornerstone Baptist Church in Arlington, Texas, and Eric Redmond, pastor of Reformation Alive Baptist Church in Temple Hills, Md., was posted at the SBC Voices blog site.
The authors acknowledge that marriage "is an institution established by God rather than simply a human social construction" and that "homosexual behavior is sinful, including what this current age calls 'same-sex civil unions' and 'same-sex marriage.'"
They also note that "support of same-sex civil unions has been portrayed as a Civil Rights issue akin to the overturning of slavery and security of equal treatment under the law of African Americans."
The resolution, if brought to the messengers in its current form, would have Southern Baptists "reject the notion that race, as a by-product of birth given by the Creator's design, and gender-orientation, as a behavioral choice made by individual persons, are to be compared as equal social issues, or that acceptance of the equality of races necessitates the equality of sexual preferences."
-- In a second proposal posted on the site by McKissic, "Resolution on Racist Statements in Mormon Source Documents," McKissic says the Mormon Church has "denied and denounced racism" but has "yet to denounce the racist teachings" contained in books they hold as authoritative. McKissic specifically mentioned The Book of Mormon and Pearl of Great Price.
Baptist Press asked Tal Davis, a former interfaith witness consultant with the North American Mission Board and now executive vice president of MarketFaith Ministries (http://www.marketfaith.org) of Tallahassee, Fla., for comment.
"It is certainly true that the extra-biblical scriptures of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) contain divine curses as indicated by dark skin," Davis stated. "It is also clear that evangelicals reject the historicity and authority of those extra-biblical sources. That being said, in LDS ecclesiology any revelation(s) received by the church's living prophet (president) supersedes anything in their scriptures. In 1978 then-LDS President Spencer Kimball supposedly was told by God that the curses were no longer in effect and that 'all worthy male members of the Church may be ordained to the priesthood without regard for race or color.' I fear the proposed resolution will be perceived as casting undeserved aspersions on LDS members and hinder Baptists reaching Mormons with the true Gospel."
(EDITORS NOTE, 6/14/12: Since the publication of this article, McKissic has voiced disagreement with Davis characterization of Kimballs revelation. McKissic, in a statement to Baptist Press, said Kimball never disavowed the curses when he opened the Mormon priesthood to men of all races. McKissic relayed a link to Kimballs pronouncement, http://www.lds.org/scriptures/dc-testament/od/2?lang=eng, and to a Mormon writers assessment of the lingering effect of the curses, http://askmormongirl.wordpress.com/2011/11/07/what-do-mormons-believe-about-african-americans/. Davis believes, however, his statement is correct, noting to Baptist Press, In my opinion the LDS [Mormon church], since 1978, considers the case closed and rejects racism. Davis was a guest on Ed Stetzers weekly webcast The Exchange in late May. The program, titled Engaging Mormonism, can be accessed at http://www.edstetzer.com/the-exchange.html. Stetzer is president of the LifeWay Research division of LifeWay Christian Resources of the Southern Baptist Convention.)
-- In a third proposal from McKissic, "Resolution on the Recognition of Black Minister, George Liele, as America's First Missionary," he challenges the familiar accounts of Adoniram and Ann Judson being the first American missionaries. Liele, an African American, left the United States to start a church in Jamaica 30 years before the Judsons left for Burma.
Liele, according to McKissic, "became the first Black Baptist in America" and "became the first Protestant missionary to go out from America to establish a foreign mission."
Resolutions Committee members, in their organizational meeting in early May, agreed not to discuss the subject or substance of any submitted resolution until they had opportunity to review it together and determine whether to present it to the SBC annual meeting in its submitted or an amended form. The committee does not release advance copies or comment on the proposals until it brings its report to the messengers.
Bylaw 20 stipulates that proposed resolutions must be submitted no later than 15 days prior to the SBC annual meeting, and any submitted resolution must be accompanied by a letter from a church qualified to send a messenger to the SBC annual meeting "certifying that the person submitting the resolution is a member in good standing."
The titles of all properly submitted proposed resolutions, including the name and city of the person submitting it and the disposition of each submission will be printed in the Convention Bulletin.
SBC President Bryant Wright named Jimmy Scroggins, pastor of First Baptist Church in West Palm Beach, Fla., as chairman of the 10-member Resolutions Committee, which will deliberate in the days immediately prior to the June 19-20 annual meeting.

Fathers Care for Kids, Too
Pediatric waiting rooms may start to look a little different. They are usually filled with kids accompanied by their mothers. But recognizing the important role of fathers and other male caregivers, the American Academy of Pediatrics has issued a new policy statement and guidelines intended to encourage greater maleinvolvement in children's lives and healthcare.
Comment: It is about time!

Pediatricians Can Help Fathers Be More Involved in Children's Lives
CHICAGO- Fathers' involvement and interactions with their children can have a positive influence on their children's development. In a new clinical report, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) suggests ways pediatricians can support and increase fathers' active roles in their children's lives.
Research shows more fathers are staying home with their children as more mothers choose to go to work. Even among men who do work, the average amount of time they spend with their children has increased in the past decade to more than two hours per weekday and more than six hours per weekend. And there are more single dads raising children too. Census figures indicate father-only households increased to 4.3 million, or 4.2 percent of U.S. households in the year 2000.
A father may be a biological, foster or adoptive father; he may be a stepfather, grandfather, teen father, father figure or coparent father in a gay relationship. But no matter how fathers are defined, the AAP says pediatricians need to broaden their understanding of fathers' roles and expectations--and modify their clinical style and office practices to accommodate and support fathers' expanding roles.
The AAP suggests several ways to do this:
The long-term positive effects of fathers' direct involvement in the care of their children become evident through childhood and adolescence. Pediatricians can help fathers learn to play a variety of roles in the family beyond the stereotypical role of financial supporter.

"With MATLAB we developed a risk management system that helps us implement our strategies, hedge our risks more efficiently, and respond rapidly to changes in the market. MATLAB enables us to incorporate our ongoing research and the experience of our fund managers into the risk engine."
Athanasios Bolmatis, Fulcrum Asset Management
Fulcrum Asset Management LLP is an independent private partnership founded in 2004 by Gavyn Davies, former Chief Economist of Goldman Sachs, and Andrew Stevens, an investment manager at Goldman Sachs. Headquartered in London, the firm manages approximately $1.5 billion in absolute and relative return strategies.
Fulcrum considers risk management to be an integral part of portfolio management and has invested in building the infrastructure that ensures that its funds are closely monitored and abide by prespecified risk limits. Using MATLAB®, Fulcrum built a risk management system that dynamically measures risk and return, enabling portfolio managers—the Fulcrum Risk Committee and the Fulcrum Investment Committee—to respond rapidly to market events.
The MATLAB based system provides an accurate view of each fund's current positions, calculates several risk measures (including volatility, value-at-risk, expected shortfall, drawdowns, and factor exposures), enables scenario testing to assess vulnerability to default scenarios, and helps fund managers select hedges.
"MATLAB makes it easy to access financial data from internal databases and external data service providers without building extra software," says Fulcrum Director Athanasios Bolmatis. "With MATLAB we can process that data using risk management techniques developed by our own experts and scale the system as we add more funds."
Fulcrum wanted an agile and scalable system for risk analysis. They considered packaged risk management solutions, but ultimately decided against them. "With most packages, model accuracy was insufficient, meaning that limits on value-at-risk, for example, would be incorrectly breached," says Bolmatis. "Further, because this is a core system for us, we wanted to control the inputs into estimation and incorporate the extensive knowledge of Fulcrum experts into the system."
Fulcrum used MATLAB to develop a custom risk management engine, integrate it with local databases, and accelerate risk calculations and optimizations via parallel computing.
Using Database Toolbox™, Fulcrum analysts imported fund position data into MATLAB from their portfolio accounting system, which comprises local Microsoft® SQL Server® databases.
The fund position data was complemented by current and historical market data from Bloomberg, FactSet®, and other leading financial data providers, which the team obtained using Datafeed Toolbox™.
Fulcrum implemented risk models in MATLAB and performed GARCH estimation, simulation, and forecasting using Econometrics Toolbox™ and Optimization Toolbox™.
They assessed the efficacy of the system using historical market data and concluded that the models were able to provide accurate risk measures with statistically consistent VaR breaches.
Using Optimization Toolbox, the group built an application that identified the set of optimum options to minimize the expected shortfall of any portfolio under various constraints, such as maximum cost or allowance of shorting.
They accelerated optimizations and Monte Carlo simulations used in scenario analysis by using Parallel Computing Toolbox™ to run them on desktop computers equipped with multicore processors.
Fulcrum staff access the risk management system daily via a standalone application built using MATLAB Compiler™. Even if they do not have MATLAB installed, they can use this application's graphical interface to perform analysis and generate risk reports while making full use of their multicore desktops.
Some reports are exported at the push of a button from the risk management engine to Microsoft Excel®, enabling the Investment and Risk Committees, as well as other interested parties, to view risks and performance in a familiar spreadsheet format.

Safe navigation of vessels though ice-infested waters in the Canadian Arctic and along the East and West Coast of Canada is of vital importance to the exploration and development of natural resources. Current marine radar technology performs poorly in distinguishing
first year ice from multiyear ice and in detecting small ice fragments (called growlers) in
open water.
Previous studies by the Communications Research Laboratory, McMaster University
have been successful in developing improved classification techniques for first year and
multiyear ice using an X-band radar. This thesis aims to provide improved detection techniques of small ice targets in open water. With the recent go ahead of the Hibernia Project
(a large oil-drilling project off of the coast of Newfoundland), the problem of reliable detection
of growlers with a ship-based radar has become even more critical.
In this thesis, improved growler detection capabilities are presented. These results
are based upon a detailed study of sea clutter and growler data obtained with the use of
a dual-polarized, pulse-Doppler, X-band radar known as IPIX. Several contributions have
resulted from the collection and analysis of real radar returns from growlers and the sea.
We show that the amplitude statistics of sea clutter are K-distributed, and we quantify the
poor performance that results in this non-Rayleigh clutter. Furthermore, we show that significant
performance improvements can be obtained by exploiting the time-varying Doppler
signatures of growlers in sea clutter. Several medium dwell-time coherent detectors are designed
and their performances evaluated and presented in the form of receiver operating characteristics (ROC). Finally, the comparatiYe advantages and tradeoffs of these detectors
are considered in detail.

Intel: A Compelling Value Play
Erick is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) is in a tough position right now. It's core market PCs is slowly shrinking, while smartphones and tablets are growing by leaps and bounds. What is a former juggernaut to do? Retire in a quiet nursing home or elbow into the party?
According to Yahoo! Finance, INTC closed Friday at $22.66 with a Price to Earnings Ratio of 9.62 and a very juicy dividend yield of 4% (compare that to the yield on a 10 year U.S. Treasury). Intel's main competitor is AMD (NYSE: AMD), a company with a loss over the last twelve months. AMD has been increasingly getting the very low end and least profitable part of the PC market while Intel has been increasing their sales of high-end servers and high-end PCs such as Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) beauties that have have been growing in the midst of this stagnant market.
Intel's stock price suffered this last few weeks after they warned of upcoming disappointing revenues. Intel expects $13.2 billion versus previous estimates ranging from $13.8 billion to $14.8 billion. Is that enough to justify a 10% slide in the stock price between September 6 and Friday. I'll let you be the judge of that, but with a very attractive valuation and a very healthy balance sheet (cash in hand over $13 billion and debt just over $7 billion), good cash flow and a very sustainable dividend payout ratio of about 36%, I am convinced that in 5 years INTC will have doubled in price at the very least. In the short term, there is going to be pain, but Intel is not being static. The company is developing smartphone chips that compete with the likes of Qualcomm and ARM Holdings (NASDAQ: ARMH).
I am putting my money on Intel because they have the R&D and facilities to compete in the space and the heft to produce large quantities of chips. Apple's A6 is a custom design on an ARM core, but there is no reason that Apple can't move to Intel's chips in the future, especially as iOs 6 and Mountain Lion come closer together.
As more companies move to the cloud, the need for servers with Intel chips will climb. Ivy Bridge is being contemplated for Microsoft's Windows 8 surface tablet (the high-end model only for now, the low-end being served by ARM).
All of these changes bode well for Intel, and I can wait patiently collecting that juicy ever increasing dividend until Mr. Market comes to see things my way. The higher the market goes the more I look to solid companies with good dividends and Intel gives me the rare opportunity to invest in a company in transition. Short term the prospects may seem bleak, but in the longer term I see a lot to smile about.
Dig Deeper
When it comes to dominating markets, it doesn't get much better than Intel's position in the PC microprocessor arena. However, that market is maturing, and Intel finds itself in a precarious situation longer term if it doesn't find new avenues for growth. In this premium research report on Intel, our analyst runs through all of the key topics investors have understand with the chip giant.

Vivlamore reporting from Hawks practice.
The Hawks are looking to rebound – literally – from their last loss.
The Nuggets, the NBA's top offensive rebounding team, will be at Philips Arena Wednesday. The Hawks had a six-game win streak snapped by the Cavaliers, featuring the league's top rebounder Anderson Varejao, Friday.
The Hawks (9-5) have been outrebounded in eight games this season, including by a 49-28 margin against the Cavaliers. They are 28th in the NBA in rebounding average (39.4), with only the Heat and Celtics worse. They are also 29th in rebounding differential (minus 4.1). The Nuggets (9-9) are tops in offensive rebounds per game (15.4) and second overall in total rebounds (46.7).
"They are relentless going to the glass," Hawks coach Larry Drew said of the Nuggets following Tuesday's practice. "We are going to have to be good … as far as our ability to keep them off the boards. The perimeters are going to have to do their jobs as well. It's going to be a game where if we don't do a good job on the glass then we could be in for a long night."
Injury report
Kyle Korver, who has been out with back spasms, did not practice Tuesday. The guard has not been able to practice since leaving in the third quarter against the Bobcats last week. He missed the game against the Cavaliers.
DeShawn Stevenson was forced to leave Tuesday's practice after taking an elbow to the head. He continued to participate but left after complaining of a headache.
The Hawks were left with 10 players to finish the workout with rookies John Jenkins and Mike Scott sent to the NBA Development League over the weekend.
Back to defensive basics
Drew called the defensive execution against the Cavaliers the team's worst all season. Following Monday's practice, the coaching staff held a film session to illustrate the issues.
"In watching the film yesterday, they saw exactly what I was talking about," Drew said. "It wasn't a situation where they could dispute anything. It was staring them right in the face. We had some really good dialog about how we played and now we are ready to move on."
Morrow adjusting
Anthony Morrow has had an up-and-down season when it comes to playing time. The guard has a single-game high of 25 minutes while also not playing at all in two games. Morrow is averaging 5.7 points in 12.4 minutes. He leads the team in 3-point field goal percentage (.533) despite not having plays run for him.
"It's tough but I've been in that situation before," Morrow said. "It just hasn't been for a few years. Whatever my role has to be for this team, I want to do it well. If it's coming off the bench, getting a steal or two, having a big possession offensively, even make free throws at the end of the game. No matter what it is, as long as we win. … I'll continue to work my butt off and whatever opportunity arises, it arises."

Seriously Guys I think this club is one "big" move away from being in elite status in the east. They run well and can defend. The obvious glaring weakness is rebounding. Ive seen on these blogs where people lobby for ZaZa to start. Who is gonna spell zaza at the 5 when he gets in foul trouble? See the dillema? While ZaZa may deserve to start he is best suited coming off of the bench while we should try to acquire a front line 5 because smoove has developed his game as if he is suiting himself to play the 3. Ive watched the hawks for many seasons. Lets not get too excited (good or bad) just yet. and guys….Lay off of Larry Drew a little. We could have a worse

Morrow leads the team in 3-pt shooting on a team that loves to shoot the three…but can't get any consistent PT.
With Korver out and Jenkins gone, hope he finally gets 20+ mpg. He's proven he can produce. He's earned it.

"The one difference is that Howard is more agile making him a better rebounder. Howard has a slight edge in the facets of the game where he is better while Shaq is far better in other areas. When all is said and done, Howard won't be mentioned as a top 5 center since ~1980."
All is not said and done, so your point is speculation. If Howard stays in LA and wins 5 championships,he might be considered a top 5 center. Howard is more agile which makes him a better rebounder, man to man defender and a better help defender. His shot blocking skills are better than Shaq's were. Shaq is at 2,732 blocked shots in 21 years in the league, while Dwight Howard is at 1,389 with 9 years in the league. You do the math.

Agree with BD, this team can go far this year if they add a good rebounder. The next opponent has an excess of good rebounders some that hardly play because there is not enough minutes to go around in that team. Mozgov is an example of a big body/decent rebounder on an expiring contract that maybe Ferry can acquire. Would a draft pick (2nd or 1st) and matching salary be enough to entice Denver?. He can either start or take Zaza's spot in the bench. Al should not be our everyday center, it takes away from his offense and the team gets kill on the boards against big teams. He could even wear down as the season goes along. Three games come to mind that the Hawks could have easily won with slightly better rebounding, Houston, Golden State and now Cleveland.

Great Article. Rebounding is a lot about attitude. Hence, Ivan Johnson(IMO), should get 25-30 minutes per game, as well as the final 6 minutes of all games. I have a feeling that the more he plays, the better the team will play. Especially on the "glass". I WISH SOMEONE COULD HELP ME UNDERSTAND WHY IVAN PLAYS LESS THAN 20 MINUTES PER NIGHT. I JUST DON'T GET IT.

you do not have a SG in your lineup. Also Johnson & Tolliver (unfortunately) are needed for the rotation at PF/SF/C. Are our guards said to be QUICK? Then why they cannot stay between their opposition and the paint (as Grandad was reasonably asking before)? Let the opposing guards (including Iguodala) settle for jumpers, this could be done if our guards are quick as claimed on multiple occasions…

"They are relentless going to the glass," Hawks coach Larry Drew said of the Nuggets following Tuesday's practice. "We are going to have to be good … as far as our ability to keep them off the boards. – LD
LD thinks he can just (for one game) preach rebounding to his team that is ranked 28th out of 30 teams and instantly become "good". That is called "lip service" but it qualifies him to use his own quoted talking points if they should lose in this fashion. In his post-game press conference he would just say "I told my team before the game BAH BAH BAH …"
He didn't get the memo that for these Hawks to defend and rebound at the next level they need to acquire players with size that inherently possess those skill sets. Rebounding and playing good defense are more than a mindset and energy as LD often suggest; it must also be in the players' DNA. This flawed roster will unfortunately always come up short (literally and figuratively) in these areas because of the roster makeup regardless of what LD preaches.

I think rebounding comes down to focus and effort. And the Hawks struggle in that area. Guards need to step up their rebounding.
If Damion James was averaging 10 rebs per game in the D-league, would you say the Hawks should bring him back?
December 4th, 2012

put Zaza and Ivan in the game I guarantee the fortunes change as it regards to rebounding.

I think the Hawks should pursue Howard this summer. It doesn't matter if he's better than Shaq, he's clearly the best big man in the game TODAY. When you have a chance to acquire a talent like that, than you do so. If they fail to sign Howard, I would like to see to go after Oden. He's a high reward with a low risk factor. Assuming that the Hawks could sign him for a short contract (2yrs with team opt) for a reasonable salary (7-8 mil max), they still will have enough money to pursue an elite wing player (Rudy Gay)…

If anyone watched the ending of the Nets/OKC and Rockets/Lakers games, you could clearly see the difference between Harden and Joe Johnson. Neither guy shot the ball well over the course of the game but in crunch time Johnson was unable to make plays or get his shot off against double teams. Whereas, Harden made several assist, free throws and a key rebound. Harden played without Lin in crunch time whereas Joe played next to Deron Williams. Rockets win, Nets lost…. Both guys have max contracts but I will take Harden over Joe any day…

Rebounding an issue? LMAO! Why does it take Uncle Larry so long to figure out something?
December 4th, 2012
10:44 pm
Houston coach should have took Howard out for a few mins. At least until the last 3 mins where Houston would have only 1 min to use the Hack-a-Howard. That would have made a difference in strategic. Everyone knows Howard struggles at the line, why continue to let him get foul and watch him continue to struggle at the line? Coaching lost that game. It's on the coach to put his team in the best position to win. Lakers coach didn't do that. That's why the Lakers lost…

Josh is our version of Stacy Augmon. He can defend some 2 guards in this league. He would be a match-up problem as well….
December 4th, 2012
11:01 pm
I have no doubt that Josh can defend the 2 position. However, don't we need a shooter for the offence? As well, we will not have a rotation guys for our frontcourt…

Damion James is playing well today – above the rim!
December 4th, 2012
11:21 pm
He's complaining about lack of rebounding… yet continues with his small lineup with Devin and Deshawn getting heavy minutes, while not playing his two best rebounders (Zaza and Ivan). What's missing here?
December 4th, 2012
11:38 pm
Yeah James snatching rebounds like they belong to him. And Jenkins is such a smooth scorer. He keeps scoring like this, might push Ferry to trade somebody to get him some minutes.

Dwight may be a slightly better defender and rebounder than Shaq (debatable but I can see the argument). But what is not debatable is that Shaq was MILES ahead of Dwight as an offensive player. It's not even close. Shaq had enough touch and moves around the basket that if you got him the ball within 5 feet of the hoop, scoring was automatic. Dwight's best move is that running baby hook which isn't anywhere near as reliable as Shaq's drop step was. I'd also take Shaq's passing ability over Dwight.
Of course with all that said I'd take Dwight in a Hawks uniform in a heartbeat.
December 4th, 2012
11:51 pm
And DJames shooting the long ball well too. But still dont see him coming back here though.

"The New Orleans Pelicans? Man, keep the Hornets as your nickname…"
Haha. Strange choice, but Hornets and Bobcats are not that much better in my opinion. At least they didn't call themselves the Hurricanes.
December 4th, 2012
11:58 pm
One other thing about Shaq — he took five more shots per game over his career and yet turned the ball over less than Dwight. Dwight is a turnover machine. Shaq had pretty outstanding ball skills for a guy that size.
December 4th, 2012
11:59 pm
Jenkins started missing 3-pointers, looks mich like a small version of KK…

"don't ask silly questions about the compatibility of those two on the offensive end. We're supposed to ignore those types of details and focus on the "social perks" of bringing D12 back. It will be the head coach's fault for not figuring out how to win championships with those two combining for 35+ FGAs. Surely, opposing defenses will sumply allow the PG to simply lob the ball everytime down the floor, right? Isn't that why the Clippers made it to the Finals last year? Lob City."
If all you think Josh and Dwight can do is jump you must not be watching much. For all the reasons Shaq is better than Dwight, it's not like Dwight is DeAndre Jordan. The only problem with playing Josh and Dwight together is that making free throws at the end of games would be a nightmare. Other than that they would be fine together.
December 5th, 2012

All is not said and done, so your point is speculation. If Howard stays in LA and wins 5 championships,he might be considered a top 5 center.
If that's the case, then somebody reset the records. Bill Wennington, James Edwards, Bill Cartwright, and Luc Longley deserve some love….
Let's be honest here. Dwight is never going to have the impact Shaq did. Maybe he'll be good enough to "help" Kobe win another ring or two. Maybe not. Dwight has not dominated the way Shaq did. As Najeh stated, the offense just isn't there.
True, we've yet to see him play with another bonafide superstar. Shaq brought rings to L.A. and Miami. Dwight isn't going to bring a ring to L.A. Last I looked, they were able to win one with Bynum's gimpy and disinterested a$$.
Shaq = HOFer. Dwight = somebody who would have gotten his lunch eaten on a daily basis if he'd have to deal with Mourning, Ewing, Olajuwon, etc. Not to mention Shaq in his prime. OH, that would have been ugly.
But yeah…considering how things are these days, Dwight would look good in a Hawks uni. We'd just have to get another star in the fold. Somebody who was an absolute stud at the 1, 2, or 3.
