A word from Little Country Gentleman
Little Country Gentleman offers fine dining with a sense of humor. Executive Chef, Mike Randolph, offers an array of dishes each night that draw on high quality ingredients sourced from the midwest. Each meal is a journey and will include a substantial amount of food and fun. We also feature a
unique list of Old World Wines by the flight, bottle, or glass.
Each night offers a la carte, six-course, and grand tasting dining options. Diners will have two options for each dish on the six-course menu. The six-course and grand tasting menus will be set. Modifications are politely declined.
Due to the intimate size of the dining room we request a credit card to hold reservations, as well as, a 12 hour cancellation notice or a fee of $35 per guest will be charged.

Diner Reviews
Little County Gentlemen is a most
amazing dining experience. Were it located in a more cosmopolitan (read, open minded) town, there would be months long waiting lists. Everyone of the employees is passionate about their work. The quality of the food is as good as any place else, anywhere else. LCG was truly a perfect storm of people and ideas. You come out of there a different person after a dining experience. The food is raised to a level of art in creating flavor combinations. Each course of any meal is not just for eating but, for discovering the potential of the ingredients offered. The wine pairings are thoughtfully chosen and often surprise even the most experienced wine aficionado by how well the atypical match works."

Visiting St. Louis for Christmas,
we thought this place was wonderful, with great service and outstanding food and cocktails. We were sad to hear this place was closing."
Dined on 12/26/2013
First off food was good and our
poor waiter tried his best. When we arrived the music level was so loud it felt like we were in a dance club rather than a restaurant for dining. We asked our waiter if the music could be lowered and for about 10 minutes it was. Then the music was turned up even louder. Then we asked again for the level to be lowered and the music was turned up even louder. We tried 4 more times and each time the music got louder and finally the waiter told us that the restaurant was closing in a week and the owner felt that he could play the music as loud as he wanted. It was a horrible experience and we now understand why a restaurant that does not care about it's customers experience is closing."

Once again, Little Country
Gentleman does not disappoint. From the amazing cocktails created by Mr. Moll to the cuisine that is both evolutionary and revolutionary, this restaurant is wonderful. Taste everything you can because even the bread and butter are delicious. Don't be overly concerned with unfamiliar ingredients, it all comes together beautifully. Go and enjoy."
Dined on 11/29/2013
We dined on a Saturday and both
couples ordered opposite selections from the six-course menu. Offerings included several unique items (octopus with pickled potato on a salsa verde, gizzards, etc.) which were well prepared and extremely flavorful - the duck entrée was one of the best I've had. The server and wine steward were both informative, and service was excellent, however, our six courses were served over 3.5+ hours, so don't expect to be in a hurry. We ordered wine from the list and had some of our own for a $20 corkage fee. The cocktail menu is quirky and exciting so try something new from LCGs skilled mixologist. In short, a great place for foodies who want to relax for an evening over a variety of intriguing culinary selections."
Dined on 11/23/2013
Had the grand taster with my
mother. Little did we know that it would take 3.5 hours! It took over 45 minutes just to a bite. Granted, the service was great and they offered free drinks for the wait. Overall, the food was interesting, fun, playful, and in general delicious. Great place if you like taking small interesting bites, but a bad place if you are just hungry for food. The highlights were the oyster, sweetbreads, fish, beef cheeks/risotto, and of course, the 7 types of chocolate dessert (best being the flourless chocolate almond cake). They were well balanced and had good contrasting textures and unexpected flavors. Dishes that were good in theory but werent that great were the chorizo and shrimp n grits, cheeses, and sardines."

A friend came to visit from
Chicago, and we wanted to return her favor of taking us to wonderful places in Chicago by taking her to a special place in St. Louis. The choice of Little Country Gentleman was easy based on its diverse, innovative, and ever-changing menu of wonderful food, it's cocktails that rival Chicago's Aviary, and it's wonderful wine selections. Although the restaurant now has a la carte options, we decided to go for the five-course meal. The dinner was amazing - exceeding even our high expectations based on past meals here. This place is such a gem! If you are looking for a relaxed evening of fine dining and perfectly attentive service, you have to try this place!"

Excellent service and outstanding
food. Great to have another terrific restaurant in the STL area."
Dined on 10/20/2013
Had the grand tasting menu for my
fiance's birthday. Plan for a 3-4 hour meal. All of the food was excellent - deconstructed reuben, pork mole, foie gras donut, beef tongue bun. I think the only low point of the evening was the egg dish. There wasn't enough texture & the barely cooked yolk just wasn't my thing. Overall, the food was wonderful & adventerous - some was a little scary but excellent (looking at you, pig's blood truffle). The pacing was somewhat hit or miss - food came out quickly at the beginning, but you could tell the kitchen was getting bogged down in the middle. We were originally seated at a small table, but the hostess graciously moved us to a back booth for some additional privacy. Cocktails were great too."
Dined on 6/9/2013
My wife and I had a wonderful
visit. The food was wonderful -- excellent presentation, very creative, wonderful flavors. The service was attentive and friendly. The atmosphere was hip and cool. The perfect place to celebrate a special occasion."
Dined on 9/29/2013
Wonderful 6 course dinner served
exquisitely in a lovely atmosphere which felt like someone's dining room! The experience included small plates of cauliflower, heirloom and green fried tomatoes, bbq spare ribs, mussels, sable fish, and chocolate. Oooooh the chocolate. Expert service. My only criticism is that the sable fish should have been warm instead of room temperature at dinner... Chilled or room temp might have been fine at lunch. Nice wine list with a knowledgeable sommelier. Tiny restaurant with tiny plates... Big on taste and delightful dining!"
Dined on 9/22/2013
Little Country Gentleman never
disappoints. The food is simply wonderful - creative, delicious, adventurous. The ever changing menu uses the freshest seasonal ingredients in unique and incredible combinations. Attention is paid to every detail from the cocktail to begin the evening, the attentive recommendations for wine selections based on menu choices and wine preferences, and the truly spectacular food. If you like to amazed and delighted, this is the place to go."
Dined on 9/22/2013
My wife is a native Parisian and
has dined in some of the best French restaurants from Paris to the Riviera. This is no French restaurant, not even a bad one. The presentations were sophomoric and the flavors absent. We were the only 3 dining this evening and it took an hour and a half to receive three courses. On the number of diners. It was a Wednesday night, two other parties came in toward the end of our dining ordeal. As we returned to our car we noted one of our favorite restaurants, also a fine dining establishment two doors down, was packed. This spoke volumes to us. The neighbors know... ...stay away from the Little Country Gentleman!"
Dined on 9/19/2013
went for a special birthday so
splurged on the"Grand" tasting with the wine pairings. service is impeccable. grand tasting was "about" 15 courses for the night. they seem to play it by ear with the tastings. Portions are miniscule, presentation artful. some offerings were so delicious we were left wanting more while others would have been better skipped. all in all, it's an experience but extremely expensive. Cost for three people was within a few cents of $700 with tip and we had no pre diner drinks. they do ask if there is anything you just don't want and we stated raw onions, but we should have included things like chicken hearts, lamb sweet breads and pancreas. as I said... it's an experience, but pricey."
Dined on 9/21/2013
The website and prior reviews show
a 3, 6 or a grand course option, but no more 3 course option. As such, if you want a couple of drinks, you will spend minimum 100 p/p. Of the 6 courses, 3 were outstanding, 1 disappointing and 2 OK. We had a very interesting and tastey cheescake, which was the highlight of the courses. The service was attentive and helpful. It's a small place and the ratio of those working to those dining is very high. The space is very casual and fits better for breakfast though. We will be back, simply for the creativity and surprise element of some incredible tastes."
Dined on 9/1/2013
great meal again! pacing of
courses could be improved as it is slower than I would like"
Dined on 8/23/2013
We really enjoyed sampling the
various tastes. It was very creative cooking. Also enjoyed the drama of our sommelier who recommended an outstanding champagne. We had a good time."
Dined on 8/11/2013
The 6 course tasting was amazing.
We will try the grand taster (23 courses) next time. The bar tender was creative and made the best mocktail for our pregnant guest that I've ever tried."
Dined on 7/27/2013
Not a very comfortable dining
experience. The food and the service was great. The seating needs to be figured better. The website says they open the bar at 5:00, but was still setting up the bar at 5:10 and kind of slow to get cocktails around while you waited for your table to be set up."
Dined on 7/6/2013
Great service & tasty, creative
cocktails.The kitchen staff was spot on, with great attention to every detail, regarding ingredients, flavors, & textures in every dish. We had an Awesome dining experience. They're doing some amazing things at LCG."
Dined on 7/26/2013
They have changed in how many
courses are offered and at what price. All to the good. Distinctive foods for all six courses, one as good as or better than the next. You get a choice between two items for each course ... and all are good since someone at our table had each. Service was excellent. We brought our own wine, but know there is a $30 a bottle corkage fee on weekends."

Our second visit to Little Country
Gentleman proved that our amazing first meal there wasn't a fluke. From the 'smoked' drinks to the deliciously gooey chocolate chip cookie 'to go' everything was delightful. I can't wait to return."
Dined on 7/14/2013
We went to LCG on a Thursday
night. The food and the service were excellent! We had the 6 course tasting menu with wine pairings. My previous experience with tasting menus at other restaurants is that most of the dishes are great but then there are one or two that are less successful. Not with this tasting menu! Every course was phenomenal and the flavor profiles worked so well together! The intimate feel of the dining room and the view of the kitchen add to the charm. Our waiter, Alex, was friendly and knowledgeable--he made our dinner very fun. The sommelier paired excellent wines with the dishes and obviously enjoys what he does. I would definitely recommend LCG to friends (and already have)."
Dined on 7/19/2013
Our first visit to Little Country
Gentleman was this May to celebrate a promotion. It was a fabulous evening and the high interest content of the dishes, wines and cocktails all provided a good environment for conversation. We then went back for a birthday celebration, and then realized that we could also hold onto this great dining experience by stopping in at the bar for cocktails and dessert more frequently. We love this place so much we really don't want to go anywhere else, and so keep finding reasons to return for what is always an interesting and tasty meal (albeit pricey). We've just heard that they are beginning to experiment with a more modestly priced Monday night experience, and are looking forward to trying that out."
Dined on 7/13/2013
I recently dined for a second time
at LCG. While the menu choices did not initially impress (tomatoes? fish with pig ear?), we ended up being wow'ed anyway. The cuisine remains creative, the service attentive almost to a fault, the cocktail menu a wonder of creative concoctions. The only thing that bothered me was the empty dining room. WTF, St. Louis??? Get your hineys in those chairs already!! Oh, one more thing I begrudgingly admit: I *have* had tastier chocolate chip cookies. (LCG, you can do better for your parting goodie bag.)"
Dined on 7/12/2013
We've dined at Little Country
Gentleman about six times since it opened in September. I continue to be amazed at how the menu is always different and yet perfect every time. Attention is paid to every detail here from the incredibly crafted cocktails to the careful wine selections and wonderful and friendly wine guidance from the wine director, to the consistently creative, beautiful, and scrumptious dinner selections. If you like wonderful dining experiences, this is a place not to be missed!!"
Dined on 7/10/2013
We had the Grand Taster here, and
we thought it was the best fine-dining meal we've had in STL (in sixteen years of trying). The dishes were inventive, beautiful, and delicious, and they included ingredients I, at least, am unlikely to play with at home (ghost chilis, pig's ear, duck tongue). Some were good enough to bring tears to my eyes (the clam and pasta dish and the pork croquette both did this). Also, the wine pairings were outstanding. This is usually a disappointment with a tasting menu, but the wine director here found off-the-beaten path wines that were delicious and beautifully paired. The service was impeccable, and the setting simple and pleasant. I've had few meals this good anywhere, and never without paying at least double."
Dined on 7/6/2013
We enjoyed the restaurant so much.
We felt like we stepped back in time w ambiance and service, but fast forwarded to very eclectic and modern take on food. It was a treat. Felt like a cross between NYC, Boston, San Fran and Portland. But here in the Midwest. Actually got a table the night prior. No hassles like in those bigger cities. Will return for the small plates someday soon. Didn't have the sitter for it this time around. Really a treat of a dining experience."
Dined on 6/23/2013
Little Country Gentleman is a
great addition to the St. Louis dining scene. It is small with ample staff to serve the tables..excellent attentiveness. The menu offered creativity, and the food was delicious. The bartender provided a menu of cocktails that engaged the reader...a fun and tasty list of options. This is the kind of small gem that one finds in the neighborhoods of NYC.... It is geared for adults who are looking for a palette pleasing evening and are willing to spend $42 for three interesting courses plus. We will return. Just don't tell anyone else about this terrific restaurant."
Dined on 6/23/2013
This was a treat. As a Chicago
transplant its good to see more new chefs and modern cuisine coming to town. I love the Half & Half for breakfast and was a big fan of medianoche so it was just a matter of timing to get to LCG. The food overall was really really good. The only problem was that the menu was so limited. I'm great with a tasting menu but that (per our waiter) was not available at 8:15 on a friday...because it t"akes hours". The 3-course menu with two choices at each was nicely done - its a bit limiting...and also a bit meager. That said - I'd go back. The one complaint - the service. The wine guy - fantastic for more than wine - but the server was rude and condescending. Strange since he serves me coffee, too!"
Dined on 6/15/2013
Just walking in the door we had a
sense this was going to be good. The bartender offered to makes whatever appealed and when I asked for a Pimm's Cup he brought forth his own distilled version of Pimm's and created a gorgeous drink. That was just the beginning of a perfect evening. While the menu choices are limited, the staff / kitchen willingness to adapt was amazing and the results delicious. The 'amuse' was a foie gras donut that may have been the best thing I've ever tasted, but that would be unfair to the rest of the meal which was equally creative and delicious. Sending us home with a snickerdoodle cookie was the virtual icing on the cake to this wonderful meal. We'll be back, with friends, very soon."
Dined on 6/13/2013
We had a nice weekend dinner here.
VERY limited and tiny menu, but fun and flavorful options made it a unique experience. Downtown Clayton is awesome, lots to see and do nearby. Great bars and restaurants abound in this area. However, our server could not handle some basic red vs. white wine questions... the wine steward was good, but our server was shockingly uninformed. When your best tasting menu is $102 the server needs to know much MORE than just a red vs. a white wine, each server should be much sharper than this guy was. Again, the atmosphere is unique, we love the brunch at the same location (called Half&Half by day) and we are glad Clayton is experimental. BUT for a 5-star tasting menu--try Niche."
Dined on 5/17/2013
The least amount of food for the
most amount of money, i may have ever had. The first two courses were tasty, but so small it was ridiculous. The main course was just ok - "pig" was nothing special and again quite mall portion. the alternative was rabbit - which again was nothing special. Very disappointing. We left hungry. I don't expect or want to be stuffed, but an appitizer with literally like two or three bites is too much, no I mean too little. the food would have to be a whole lot better to justify. Was pretentious. Was very hot as well."
Dined on 5/17/2013
The menu and food here is
interesting. A very limited menu, but some unique flavors and options. This is a great brunch place (during the day, it's called half&half) and the casual bistro style and location are great. The very limited menu may be off-putting to some, but we enjoyed our food. Service was spotty. Our server struggled with some very very very basic wine questions (white vs. red) and each time a course came out, they got it wrong on "who got what" and a different person brought the food. I want to like this place because of the location and innovative food. They got a lot of things right, but when your 8 course tasting menu is $102 a person, the server needs to know something about wine. There was a wine steward who was good."
Dined on 5/17/2013
Nothing bad to say about this
experience. A pricey night out, but I will be back."
Dined on 5/14/2013
My wife and I ate the nine course
meal with all the little and not so little extras that the kitchen threw in ie the new trout dish with edible head and bones, beef cheek amuse, and intermezzo drink. Overall we found the food to be so contrived that any natural flavours were lost in a myriad of textures that really weren't suited to be put together. The presentation of the food was so off kilter in terms of size and style of serving dish to portion of food that we were disappointed at each stage before even trying a morsel. IMO the chef needs to go back to basics and learn classic food marriages and to ditch all the foams. As to us we will stick to Niche, The Crossing, and Alinea."
Dined on 5/11/2013
We had one of the best meals in
our 10 years in St. Louis. We chose the three course tasting menu and added a cheese course at the end. It was all marvelous and the service was exceptional. One of our party does not drink but the bartender whipped up a unique and delicious appletini "mock tail". A 5 star meal."
Dined on 5/11/2013
Little Country Gentleman is
anything but little on flavor and presentation. The tastes and textures were surprising to my taste buds. One of the best dining experiences ever. The 3 course meal was perfect! You just have to savor every bite. I'm drooling just thinking about the mushrooms and fresh herbs."
Dined on 5/8/2013
Our group of 5 went to Little
Country Gentleman to celebrate a special event, and had the 3 course dinner plus dessert. Three hours later, we left after a lovely evening of excellent food, interesting wine and cocktails, and spot-on-service. The staff didn't hover, but were always available when we needed them (for either wine tips or to answer a question about one of the dishes). We came in as fans of molecular gastronomy, so we were prepared for the charism of this specific restaurant and weren't disappointed. Best dinner out ever."

Justin Bieber alert: Ke$ha admits she'd have sex with Selena Gomez' man
Ke$ha has got her eyes on Selena Gomez' potentially on-again man. The "Take It Off" singer admits in a new interview that she'd have sex with Justin Bieber since he is finally of age.
"Sure," she says when asked by Rolling Stone (via E! News) if she'd hook up with Biebs, adding, "Wait, is he even legal? Could I go to jail for this?"
Yes, Bieber is now 18, which means it finally is legal for 25-year-old Ke$ha to become cozy with the younger man. But would she want to? She claims she's interested.
"OK, then I would," Ke$ha says. "We could go out and buy lottery tickets, vote, play putt-putt golf. All the things that are legal at the age of 18."
How adorable -- though Gomez might not think so.

The investigators hypothesize that stimulation of the cerebellum with transcranial magnetic stimulation will produce brief changes in performance of the task, suggesting that cerebellar activation is necessary for normal cognitive function.

Cultural diversity
Language(s): English
This is an ICT4ID* DVD and it is made up of two films.
The first one, Ochre and Water (53 min.), directed by Craig Matthew and Joëlle Chesselet, is a journey over 7 years into the memory and landscape of the nomadic Himba people of the arid Northern Namibia.
The second film, "The Fountain of Stories" (sample above), is a 50 min. kaoko project directed by Joëlle Chesselet.
The project consists on building the content around the life history of one person, Katjira Muniombara, symbolized by his homestead or "Onganda" in Okapare. This allows us to explore the traditions, memories, relationships, ceremonies and the landscape of the Kaokoveld. The fountain stories is the linear version of the interactive pilot that is thus being developed.
*ICT4ID is a UNESCO project that encourages the use of information and communication technologies for intercultural dialogue and to contribute to the development of communication capacities of indigenous people.

20 reviews of the HP Web Printer (aka The HP Photosmart Premium with Touchsmart Web All-in-One)
My day job gives me an amazing opportunity to meet and talk with customers.To get firsthand feedback on how HP technology and innovation helps their everyday lives is incredibly powerful and motivating. We listen closely to what our customers want, what they like about our products -- and just as importantly what they don't like -- to dream and build better solutions. So when customers told us they wanted an easier way to print and share what they create and read on the web, we went to work. One result of the HP-customer collaboration debuted last fall and is known as the HP
Photosmart Premium with Touchsmart Web AiO (also affectionately known as "the HP
Web Printer"). We asked real families to test drive it and give us their opinions, including the 20 reviews listed here.
Want to know what it's like to print with web-based apps -- no PC required? Get more info and read on:
Lifetime Moms (Lifetime TV), by Lindsay Reed Maines | "All in all, I highly, highly recommend the HP Photosmart Premium TouchSmart Web All-in-One Printer- the quality of print and ease of use out of the box make it a winner in my book." See the full review ... | |
Real Life, by Sarah (plus video) | "You can use this printer to print out documents, coupons, Google Map directions, movie tickets...recipes, and SO much more! And you don't even have to touch your computer! It is truly amazing!" See the full review ... | |
Babycenter.com, by Kristina Sauerwein | "When the printer arrived at our home, courtesy of HP, my husband was wide-eyed with excitement. It was as if I had handed him an aphrodisiac, or a weekend pass to play golf, or a ticket to the World Series." See the full review ... | |
Cutie Booty Cakes, by Renee | "I know, we should not covet anything, but I just can't help myself...I can't even begin to sing praises for this printer loudly enough...The HP Touchsmart can work stand alone, in other words if your computer is shutdown you can still print from the web apps. Apps- yes, your read that right. Apps for the printer. Right now the Touchsmart has 18 different apps that can be used, especially by busy moms like me. " See the full review ... | |
ExtraordinaryMommy, by Danielle (plus video) | "HP Touchsmart Technology is amazing…with only a touch, you can connect to the online world and access….well, just about everything." See the full review ... | |
DesignHER Momma | "...How full of awesomeness can it really be? Umm....only 18,000 different shades of awesome. It doesn't "just print".It quickly prints beautiful pictures on demand. It prints double sided documents. It makes copies. (colored too). It faxes (oh yes it does). It scans. IT'S HOOKED UP TO THE INTERNET, PEOPLE! See the full review ... | |
Tech Savvy Mom | "...the entire family was quite impressed. Tech Savvy Daddy is impressed by the ability to browse Snapfish and print directly from the screen, while the kids are in love with touching the screen to print...The unit comes with a collection of Apps, arranged in a trendy and elegant scrolling pattern. Wow, Apps for my printer. What will be next… Apps for my toaster? Perhaps!" See the full review ... | |
Mommy Niri (plus videos) | "Once you buy it, it does not mean that is all you get. Thanks to the wondrous nature this printer continuously can get updates of new features. I really like that feature, as by the time I had it set up there were already new applications out." See the full review ... | |
More Than Mommy (aka Quirky Fusion) | "...the big reason for buying this printer over similar models is the Web functionality. The Web printer comes with a number of different apps (with more to download and others under development) that you can use without a computer at all. There are coloring book pages and crafts, recipes, coupons, Fandango movie tickets and Google maps. Since I have a laptop, I do like being able to print things without having it connected. If I'm running out the door and need a map, I'll be thrilled to be able to print one without booting up my machine." See the full review ... | |
Mom Central, by Stacy DeBroff | "We have all been there - somehow you spend 30 | |
Mom Spark, by Amy Bellgardt | "I have had "all-in-one" printers in the past, but they were never this easy to use. Having the Touchsmart screen makes all the difference, really. The steps for scanning, faxing, copying, printing photos, etc. are all very straight forward and totally done on the printer itself. You can also access Disney, CBS Interactive, Google, DreamWorks Animation, Fandango, Coupons.com, and others by using the Touchsmart screen. It's like having a second computer (with web) and photo lab on your desktop!" See the full review ... | |
Secret Agent Mama | "I was able to print, scan, and fax over our wireless router within minutes...No running back and forth scanning, saving, cussing, scanning again, rinse, repeat, etc." See the full review ... | |
MomAdvice | "As a mom, I love when appliances have me in mind. This printer has on the home screen links directly to Disney and Nick Jr for free coloring pages, activities, and recipes. Other features include a relationship with Coupons.com for customized coupons for your local area, Google Maps, and Snapfish so you can print photos straight from the printer from your Snapfish photo albums" See the full review ... | |
Life As Mom | "But, the thing that made me go, "Ooooh" was this: The coupons that print from coupons.com are formatted to use paper very efficiently. It even prints out a list of the coupons you printed. I think this is a really handy feature. I'm such a grocery geek!" See the full review ... | |
Iowa Geek (plus video) | "It was easy for me to set up. In only 5 minutes I was printing from the web; in under 10, I was hooked up to my computer. Easy peasy." See the full review ... | |
The Pixel Boutique | "Through the touchscreen, you can navigate to sites like Google maps, Coupons.com, Snapfish, Fandango and Nickelodeon and print what you need, immediately. Without even touching your computer...in my opinion the Photosmart Premium TouchSmart Web is the Cadillac of ink jet printers." See the full review ... | |
Making My American Dream | "With its stylish design, the HP Photosmart Premium with TouchSmart Web looks great sitting atop my desk and fits perfectly too. And the touchscreen adds a futuristic touch that just can't be ignored. I would recommend this printer to fellow moms as well as anyone looking to print high quality photos or have limited web access from your printer." See the full review ... | |
New York Chica | "The features are amazing. The one feature that struck me was that you can have your photos printed straight from the cell phone right to the printer. I never thought, in a million years that a printer would work with a cell phone." See the full review ... | |
3 boys & a dog | ";;;the boys really love the internet option and the touch-smart of the HP...I am keeping the HP in the kitchen with my laptop and sending the Epson to the local high school. " See the full review ... | |
The Art of Random Willy -Nillyness | "The printer also has automatic two sided printing which is a wonderful feature. This printer is also connected to the Internet which makes it so wonderful. And even if you are offline on the computer you can still access the applications that come with the printer without having to turn on the computer. It comes with several programs that you can connect to at anytime. The programs include Fandango, Disney, Google Calendar, Coupons, USA Today, DreamWorks, Nickelodeon, Google Maps and Recipes. I am sure I missed one or two but you get the picture." See the full review ... |

Leaders in Transition: The Tensions at Work as New Leaders Take Charge

Book Information
This book brings a new perspective on why some leaders succeed more than others when taking charge of an organisation. Based on in-depth case studies, when four new leaders and their teams in large and complex international organisations were tracked for over a year, this book uncovers that success in managing transition is directly related to leaders' ability to balance seven tensions, appropriately to the context.
Reviews and Endorsements:
The reader will learn how the four leaders balanced these seven tensions ('mission', 'relationship', 'reciprocity', 'decision-making style', 'pace of change', 'development dilemmas' and 'loyalty'), with more or less successful results. The reasons for each leader's effectiveness are explored and analysed, allowing the authors then to extrapolate some general conclusions about the ways in which these tensions reveal themselves during all leadership transitions. The reader will find in the book a rich description of the main elements which he or she can learn to combine and balance in ways which are appropriate for the context and which will enable greater mastery of the transitional phase of leadership.
'Newly appointed leaders in today's internet world have to hit the ground running,and to know how to take early advantage of their very newness. I wish I had had the benefit of Amado and Elsner's insights before I faced the challenges of taking the official helm of a Government Department. The psychodynamic analysis they offer will help any new leader make sense of the conflicting tensions and mix of emotions that they are bound to encounter when they push down on the accelerator of change. The candid testimony of the leaders whose managerial journeys the authors followed provide telling
personal insights into what works,and what both set-backs and ultimate success feel like,inspiring that extra confidence to strike out boldly.'
- Sir David Omand GCB, ex Permanent Secretary of the Home Office and of the Cabinet Office
'Faced with the demands and stresses of challenging, unfamiliar roles even experienced managers need points of reference to guide them, and against which to analyse and assess their actions. The tensions identified in this book will be readily recognised by all managers who have ever sought to improve themselves and to understand how they can become more effective leaders. Practical, accessible and enlightening.'
- Richard Barker, General Manager, Commercial Network, Post Office Ltd
'In a world of rather strident treatises on leadership the work of Gilles Amado and Richard Elsner stands out for its thoughtfulness, rigour and applicability to the complex, real-life work place. The research underpinning their findings is impressive but they never lose touch with the need to apply this to the professional challenges business leaders face today. This is a book which is thought-provoking, readable and useful - and one worth returning to whenever one faces a new leadership challenge.'
- Deborah Loudon, Director General, Civilian Personnel, The Ministry of Defence
'Amado and Elsner bring us something readers so rarely get: no nonsense factual accounts of leaders taking charge in a range of contexts. Then the authors cut through the complexity of the data to show us what factors really made the difference between success and failure. This has got to be one of the most insightful and practical leadership books that I have read for a long time.'
- Graham Prentice, Global Human Resources Director, Nestle Nutrition
'This is one of the rare management books which focuses on the extraordinary decisive first moments in a new position. Success effectively depends on the emotional intelligence that is applied to understand the specifics of the organisations rather than on the technical skills. In depth case studies are presented that make this book very useful and easy to read. I recommend it to all managers who wish to give a real boost to their own career.'

5 The psychology of transition
Notes about the author(s):
Gilles Amado, Ph.D., Professor of Organizational Psychosociology at the HEC School of Management, Paris, is known as an expert of transition through two books he co-edited, The Transitional Approach to Change, with A. Ambrose and The Transitional Approach in Action, with L. Vansina, published in 2001 and 2005 by Karnac and which are indebted to the close work he had been undertaking for more than thirty years with Harold Bridger, a founding member of the Tavistock Institute of Human Relations. He is a founder member of the International Society for the Psychoanalytic Study of Organisations, an associate member of the Bayswater Institute and is particularly involved in action-research and consultancy in Europe and Latin America in the fields of industry, health, education, music and sport.
Richard Elsner is a specialist consultant in leadership and transitions, and is the Managing Director of the leadership development consultancy, The Turning Point, which supports leaders to take on demanding new roles. The Turning Point is based in the UK and has partner companies in Frankfurt and Paris. Before setting up The Turning Point, Richard was a Principal or Partner with DIA.logos, KPMG and Kinsley Lord. He is a former managing director of Pearl & Dean, and adviser to the chairman of a British plc. Richard obtained his MBA from IMD in 1985 after devoting ten years of early career to Africa, first as head of rural development programmes for a consortium of British charities for the Sahel region, and then as Researcher for the West and Central Africa region for Amnesty International, based in London.

Patti McGill Peterson Center for International and Intercultural Studies
Comparing the Cost of Health Care in the UK and US: An Examination of Urban and Rural Spaces
After receiving grant funding from the Giltz Award, the Sociology Department, the European Studies Department, the Office of Rance Davis, and the Academic Dean's Office, I arranged interviews in January with health care policy makers, government officials, urgent care providers, and urgent care managers in London, England and Leominster, England. Then, in February, I interviewed professionals who occupied similar profiles in New York City and Potsdam, New York.
The goal of the funding was to provide rough data that would supplement research to be completed in Spring 2009 for my Sociology and European Studies Senior Year Experience (SYE): Comparing the Cost of Health Care in the UK and US: An Examination of Urban and Rural Spaces. Without this funding, the project would not be as powerful or enlightening.
The interviews were conducted in a face-to-face setting, where a series of open-ended questions were asked to the respondent. His or her answers were then categorized: Historical Lens/Context from which Welfare State was born, Healthcare: Social Institution, The Business of Healthcare, The Politics of Healthcare, Comparison of US/UK and/or European Healthcare Systems.
Some of the most interesting questions were seemingly simple; however, due to the nature of the interview setting-that is, open-ended and thus inviting of conversation-the questions yielded long and complicated answers. Some such questions were: "Is health care a right?" "Do you make money by selling your services?" "What is your perception of the US or UK urgent care system?" "Does preventative/primary care medicine work?"
This project has special meaning to me. Not only did I spend Spring '08 in studying in London, but while there I had the opportunity to ride a shift with the London Ambulance Service. I have been very active in the Canton Volunteer Fire Department and Rescue Squad as a FF/AEMT-CC. To see the differences in the pre-hospital system first-hand made me curious as to which system is more cost- and approach-efficient. I hope my findings will be powerful, useful, and I hope to adopt the most effective system's approach when providing care as an EMT (and hopefully as a Doctor, someday!).

text: B-271-1 Jenkin Town 9 mo 21st 1806 Dear Friend, I have thought very often of thee and thy dear husband, since the pleasant hours we spent at Hartford; and have intended writing ere this, but something constantly occurred to prevent me, this afternoon feeling particularly anxious to hear from thee, and knowing that to write would be the most likely way, have set down for that purpose. As one of the objects of corresponding is to be informed of each other s welfare, so I can inform thee of mine; but I expect more than that from thee, as thou art experienced in the way of Righteousness, and has embarked in that cause which has the promotion of Truth for its object and peace for its end. Mayest thou be blest in thine undertaking, is the sincere desire and earnest prayer of thy friends! I am, I trust, a friend to that cause, and whether I shall be more earnestly embarked or engaged in it, or not I cannot tell, but hope to be willing to attend to any inti- -mation of duty which may be experienced. I hope that I may not be ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God unto salvation to the Jew, and also to the Greek. The advantages of Revelation over reason are so numerous and so well understood, that I need not hint them to thee. but I fear a disposition prevails among some friends to despise reason too much, and exclude it entirely from contributing any share to the benefit we receive from Revelation.

About The Cancer Horoscope
If you were born between June 21 and July 21, your birth sign is Cancer. As a Cancer woman you are nurturing, motherly, sensitive — and moody! You will do anything for friends and family, but there will be strings attached. When it comes to love, you tend to lose yourself in the idea of being in love, and in bed, you can make a man feel like he'll never have another thing to worry about for as long as he lives.
Your Cancer Astrological Forecast:
Cancer will have a great deal to look forward to this year, but there will be a lot of "wait and see" involved, too. It's still incredibly difficult for an emotional child of the moon to wrangle the feelings you have about partnerships, at work as well as in love. When things get even more uncertain in June and September, avoid becoming panicked about your position in life. You may want to change something essential about your career — or at least break away from the constraints of a current job.
The summer will be comparatively peaceful, with a few hints coming your way about what you might want to do over the next several months. August could be especially romantic and very sexy too. Some activity surrounding family and home shouldn't be a distraction, but for you such things are hard to ignore, and you won't rest until the problem is fixed.
In the fall, an urge to become more creative and/or socially active will make you even more fun to be around. Things will get very romantic in December, and you'll turn to love, romance, and relationship for your basic satisfaction more than ever as the year comes to an end.

The Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms bureau wants to use technology to help predict where gun crime may unfold, and eventually work to prevent it from happening, as reported in NextGov.
ATF wants a dynamic, interactive crime map with predictive analysis capabilities – specifically, the agency "is in need of an advanced evaluation crime forecasting model/system designed to accurately identify the risk of personal and property crimes at 200 of its locations" in the U.S., UK and Canada, according to information in the request for proposals from the Justice Department.
The software would use geolocation, demographics and other data to analyze trends and make predictions, and is already in use in some state and local agencies, including in Nevada and Ohio, according to the Justice Department documents. The modeling technology needs to be objective, site-specific and forward-looking in assessments, and must be capable of being tailored to agency requirements. The system will take advantage of FBI unified crime report data in an interactive mapping format, according to the statement of work. The RFP provides for onsite-training as part of the contract.
A similar program was used in Ohio last year, where its use netted seven arrests for violent crime in the first weekend of the tool's use, according to a June 2011 ATF press release. That program, dubbed the Violence Gun Reduction and Interdiction Program or V-GRIP, teamed more than a dozen local, state and federal organizations. The effort used crime-mapping software and other technology to pool intelligence, and now the hope is to emulate that success on a federal level.

Day 1
Depart London.
Day 2
We leave the airport and make our way, on good roads, to the old gold rush town of Pilgrim's Rest on the eastern escarpment. En route we travel through South Africa's highest town, Belfast (1,970m) and the scenic Robbers Pass. We overnight in Graskop (Mpumalamga), with views over the Graskop Gorge. Our driving time today will be approximately 5 hours plus sightseeing.
Day 3
Today we explore the aptly named Panorama Route. We drive through some spectacular countryside and we stop at scenic places like Bourke's Luck potholes and Blyde River Canyon, the third largest of its type in the southern hemisphere. From here we continue to a private game reserve, Edeni, well known for its leopard population. This evening we will have the opportunity to go on an open game-vehicle sunset game drive (optional).
Day 4 - 5
This morning we head out looking for wildlife on foot as we head on a game walk through the reserve. From here we continue to Kruger National Park, justifiably one of the most famous wildlife parks in the world. It is also one of the oldest, established by the president Paul Kruger in 1898. It has arguably the greatest variety of animals of any park in Africa, with lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, black and white rhino, as well as cheetah, giraffe, hippo and many species of antelope and smaller plains' game. The total census includes 147 mammals, 507 birds and 114 reptiles as well as 336 different trees. The campsites are also excellent and the general infrastructure good. If you see all the predators you will be very lucky, however you will almost certainly see some of the big five and a huge variety of smaller mammals. We game drive through the park to the campsite, where there will be a chance for a swim and hot showers. We have two days in the park and on Day 4 both morning and afternoon game drives are included to maximise our chances of seeing the plentiful fauna of this great Park.
Day 6
We enter Swaziland and overnight in the Kings old hunting grounds, now the beautiful Hlane Royal National Park. In the afternoon there is the opportunity to leave the vehicle and enjoy a nature walk (optional). Seeing animals and tracks outside of the confines of a vehicle is a thrilling experience and gives us the chance to see and hear the variety of smaller animals and birds that are often passed by on game drives.
Day 7
This morning we drive south towards the town of Big Bend on our way to the border and back into South Africa. We continue towards the small town of St. Lucia between the Indian Ocean and Lake St. Lucia. It is not uncommon to come across stray hippos in the centre of town and the nearby lagoon is a haven for crocs, hippos, birds and even sharks!
Day 8
This morning we head out on a boat on the lagoon making our way to the eastern shore. Here we go on a game walk accompanied by a local guide. We return to town and have the rest of the day free to relax or take part in one of the optional activities on offer. These includes visiting a local crocodile farm, snorkelling, whale watching (in season - June-November), going to the beach and doing sunset and night game drives on the western shore of the lake.
Day 9
We leave St. Lucia today and drive through the Natal midlands and on to Dundee. En route we stop at Rourke's Drift and have a chance to learn about the famous battle at the local museum. Immortalised by Hollywood in the film Zulu! The events that took place here are well known and the small cluster of buildings isolated in the enormity of the African Bush are a moving reminder of this troubled time.
Day 10
We continue through the Natal midlands and on to the Northern Drakensberg, our base for the next 2 nights. The Drakensberg is a basalt escarpment forming the border between Kwa Zulu-Natal and Lesotho and continuing into the Free State. It means 'Dragon Mountains', but the Zulu named it Ukhahlamba ('the barrier of Spears'). This is a more accurate description of the sheer, forbidding, jagged escarpment. The walking takes us through the lowland areas with magnificent views.
Day 11
Our route will have us walking into the natural amphitheatre, past Protea trees. The Protea is the national flower of South Africa, as well as the name of their cricket team.
Day 12
Today is a long day's drive as we travel through the eastern farmlands of the Free State and enter Lesotho at the Maseru border post. This mountainous kingdom has been shielded from outside influence over the generations and the Bastho people historically used this strategic location as a defence against events on the plains below. The lodge situated in this rugged mountainous region provides us with an ideal opportunity to experience the Lesotho culture. Our driving time today will be approximately 7 hours.
Day 13
The day is free to relax and experience the unique culture that Lesotho has to offer. Mountain ridges protrude into the town and an optional day walking with local guides and their ponies to a local village is recommended. Alternatively the craft shops and markets can be an enjoyable way to pick up some African souvenirs.
Day 14
On the road today as we drive south to Graaf-Reinet, the oldest town on the Eastern Cape founded in 1786. Our driving time will be approximately 8 hours passing through the desert landscape of the Great Karoo.
Day 15
We drive down to the coast over the Baviaanskloof Mountains and the Kouga Mountains before arriving at Tsitsikamma National Park at Storms River mouth. This national park protects the indigenous forests as well as the marine life 50km out to sea. We camp on a beautifully positioned campsite with the waves breaking a stone's throw away.
Day 16
Our second day in the Tsitsikamma N.P. is free to enjoy the beautiful setting. There are a range of optional activities including walks to the Storms River gorge and along the rocky coast, snorkelling, sea and river cruises and a tree canopy tour through the forests. In season, approximately August to October, the marine park becomes home to a population of migratory whales.
Day 17
We drive along the beautiful Garden Route coastline via George and the rolling cultivated fields of the Western Cape Boland to Hermanus. The route is stunning and follows the ragged coast passing through small fishing villages and seaside resorts. Hermanus is an interesting little town, rightly famous for its delicious seafood and a visit to one of the great restaurants in the evening is highly recommended. It is also widely regarded as the best place in the world for land-based whale watching from August to November.
Day 18
In the morning we leave Hermanus and, hugging the coastline (there is always a good chance to see whales in season), we drive along this scenic route to Gordon's Bay and then onto Stellenbosch. The afternoon will be spent visiting a few of the vineyards, which make this area world famous. Having enjoyed the local produce, wine tasting is optional. We then take a short drive to Cape Town.
Day 19
After an early morning breakfast we drive via the coastal suburbs of Clifton, Camps Bay and Hout Bay and then over Chapman's peak drive to the famous Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve, which covers an area of 7,680 hectares. The reserve is home to eland, bontebok, grysbok, springbok, wildebeest, baboon and ostrich. Rugged cliffs, unspoilt beaches, shipwrecks and beautiful flora are the main features of the reserve. We will also visit the famous Cape Point lighthouse. In the afternoon we take a short (1 hour) walk that is almost entirely downhill. Our destination is the Cape of Good Hope with a detour to Diaz beach. The trail ends at the famous signboard 'Cape of Good Hope'. We then return to Cape Town passing through the former Royal Navy base town of Simonstown and a visit to the resident Penguin Colony (optional).
Day 20
The day is free and an optional trip to Robben Island, site of Nelson Mandela's incarceration during the apartheid period, is highly recommended. Weather permitting a cable car ride to the top of Table Mountain is a must for any visitor to this picturesque city. Alternatively the beaches of Cape Town are a great place to relax and unwind.
Day 21
The morning is free for some last minute shopping or sightseeing. Depart Cape Town
Day 22
Arrive London.

With Uranus as your health planet, health issues may tend to surprise you and be acute rather than chronic. Mars moves through Sagittarius and your home zone for much of the month, so you could be guilty of burning the candle at both ends. And even more unusual for you, you might forget you have a body at all, let alone that it needs food and rest. You also need to be careful once Mars moves to Capricorn and later squares Uranus (on November 23). Whatever you're up to on that day, take it easy. If you feel moody or angry, drive carefully!

Your Trifecta: Oriakhi-Bell-Brown. Your winner: nobody. Which is true. Nobody Mizzou-related won last night.
Really tired of writing post-loss study halls. Can I have at least a week off from them, guys?
Actually, let's just start with one of yesterday's keys to the game:
Full team = Full ability to avoid the slump
As incredible as this sounds, this is Mizzou's first road game with a full-strength squad. The Tigers were missing Tony Criswell against UCLA, Laurence Bowers against Ole Miss and Florida and Keion Bell against LSU. Though they are not enormous contributors, Mizzou could possibly have won both the UCLA and LSU games with Criswell and Bell. You think that may have changed the outlook of the season a bit? 18-3 (6-2 in conference) sounds a hell of a lot better than 16-5 (5-3).
Ole Miss started the game up 19-6, then locked the game down with a 9-0 run in the second half (the rest of the game: Mizzou 43, Ole Miss 36). Florida began the game up 15-2, then locked the game down with a 10-2 run in the second half (the rest of the game: Florida 58, Mizzou 48). LSU went on an early 11-0 run, then boosted a shrinking lead with a quick 7-0 run in the second half (the rest of the game: Mizzou 70, LSU 55). With a healthy starting lineup and a full bench, the Tigers have no excuse for the type of lapses that have murdered them recently. They simply cannot let it happen again ... and they especially can't let it happen twice a game.
From 17:58 to 13:16, first half: Texas A&M 15, Mizzou 4
From 10:37 to 7:20, first half: Texas A&M 11, Mizzou 2
From 18:34 to 17:48, second half: Texas A&M 8, Mizzou 0
Three runs, eight minutes, 45 seconds ... A&M 34, Mizzou 6. In a two-point Mizzou loss. You expect a home team to make a run. That's just something that happens. But if Mizzou had been able to stop just one of these three, the Tigers win.
Actually, I guess you could make the case that Mizzou wasn't really full-strength, since Laurence Bowers spent 28 minutes on the bench. Hey, speaking of which...
Things All Basketball Coaches Do That Drive Me Insane
Laurence Bowers played five minutes in the first half, committed two fouls, and sat for the rest of the first half. He committed his third foul 90 seconds into the second half, played for the next three minutes, then sat again until six minutes remained in the game.
For the season, Bowers has been incredibly foul-proof, committing one every 14.3 minutes. He had some bad luck last night and got called for three in 12 ... but he sat for 28 minutes for fear of him drawing two more. That's insane. And I can't call Frank Haith out about it because every basketball coach in the world does this.
When you're losing on the road, saving your best player for the stretch run doesn't necessarily matter. There's not going to be a stretch run unless your best players can dig you out of your hole. Last night, Mizzou actually got a bit lucky in this regard; the rest of the team stepped up and made an 11-4 run in his absence. And really, Bowers couldn't stop Mizzou from being outscored, 26-12, in his first combined 11 minutes on the court. (Plus, his presence in the stretch run didn't prevent Mizzou from losing either.)
So there's no saying Mizzou would have done any better had Haith not benched him for so long. But the philosophy of this is what bugs me. You're afraid your best player is going to have to sit out key minutes because he's fouled out, so you prevent him from fouling out by ... sitting him for key minutes. It doesn't matter whether those "key minutes" are at the very end or in the middle. They're all key minutes, and Laurence Bowers played 12 minutes last night because of the fear of him fouling out and, perhaps, playing as few as 15-18 minutes. Hate it.
Things Good Coaches Do That I Both Admire And Hate
Frank Haith treats his team like it's a bunch of adults. He's preparing his team to be adults come March. He doesn't call timeouts, he doesn't start Corey Haith when it's time to send a message, and in the home stretch he puts the ball in the hands of the player most capable of carrying Mizzou through a fun run through March: Phil Pressey. I understand why he does it, and for the most part, I'm okay with that approach. Haith is not particularly unique in this regard, and carrying himself like this shows that he thinks this team is capable of making a March run. He doesn't have to micro-manage; for all we know, it might not be in him to do that, anyway. We haven't seen enough of him to know, one way or another.
This approach is admirable ... but it is costing Mizzou severely right now. Assuming the Tigers do indeed make the NCAA Tournament (and at some point, they'll have to win a couple of road games to make sure that happens), they might be pretty well-tested, mature, etc. But with losses to A&M and LSU, spurred in part by a lack of timeouts and some killer Pressey mistakes, Mizzou is paying a serious price for what are basically mid-season learning experiences.
You can't micro-manage your way to an NCAA title. In the end, the players are going to determine how well the players do, so in the end you're going to have to trust them to figure out ways to fight through tough stretches. And if your players can't fight through tough stretches on the road against teams like LSU and Texas A&M, you're not going to win the NCAA title whether you're using all your timeouts or not. But you still want to make the tourney. You still want to avoid something like an 8-seed. Even if you're not capable of winning six games in the tourney, you want to put yourself in a favorable position to win a couple. And a little bit of micro-managing would have gone a long way in the last week or so.
By the way...
...didn't Keion Bell just get MAULED with two seconds left. Like, almost to a "Thomas Robinson throwing Phil Pressey into the stands" level? I'd love to have seen a different camera angle of that; maybe that would change my mind. But we didn't get one. And ... yeah ... I wouldn't have minded a 90% free throw shooter going to the line, down two.
I feel really, really bad for Flip Pressey, by the way.
Obviously his decision-making needs to improve, but ... of all his problems this year, his passing touch doesn't usually abandon him like it did when he airmailed a reasonably simple pass to Keion Bell with 24 seconds left. That wasn't a decision-making issue at all; that was him, in a situation where A&M is probably going to have to foul, trying to get the ball to Mizzou's best free throw shooter. That was exactly the play I wanted him to make. And with his passing ability, it is a pass he probably makes perfectly accurately 99 percent of the time. And he just lost his touch.
Phil Pressey fought through 36 minutes of grinding, iffy, challenging play, and he had played the final four minutes almost perfectly -- two free throws with 3:46 left to get Mizzou within four, a baby jumper with 2:50 left to get within two, a gorgeous runner with 2:19 to tie the game, a perfect pass to Bell for a dunk and another tie with 1:51 left, an assist to Bowers for a 3-pointer and the lead with 53 seconds left -- and his hands abandoned him in a single, devastating instant.
And then, yes, he took an ill-advised 3-pointer on the last possession. I'm not absolving him of all sins here; just one in particular. Though, granted, the miss gave Mizzou a chance at the offensive rebound and get mauled with no call. So there's that, too, I guess.
Bottom line, though: We remember the final possession or two, but here's how I rank the factors that led to this Missouri loss:
1. A&M outscoring the Tigers by a combined 28 points in three separate runs.
2. A&M, a mediocre offensive team, averaging an inexcusable 1.13 points per possession (see below).
3. Laurence Bowers playing only 12 minutes.
4. Flip's late-game mistakes.
5. Bell getting mauled with no call.
If Mizzou cuts off one of three runs, they win even without perfect late-game execution (and again, it's worth repeating that Pressey in particular was mostly perfect from 4:00 to 0:30 left). If Mizzou actually defends well (something it has proven less and less capable of as the season has progressed) and A&M averages only about 1.00 points per possession, Mizzou wins by 6-10. Those are much bigger issues to me, in the end, than Pressey's final 30 seconds.

...and loses. Really, I wish there was a more defined pattern to these losses, like "Mizzou can't hit the broad side of a barn, the end." But in both the A&M and LSU games, it came down to runs as much as anything. The full-game stats really didn't look bad for the Missouri offense, even though watching the 40 minutes play out was maddening with the ups and downs.

- Every time I see Flip Pressey struggling through a game, committing turnovers, making iffy decisions, and still playing 36 minutes, all I can think is ... you're such an idiot, Mike Dixon.
- I loved, loved to see Missouri attacking the rim with Oriakhi, Bell and Brown. That is the way forward for this team. Well ... as long as the defense can avoid total incompetence, anyway. That's ... kind of a problem at the moment.
The Other Two Keys Revisited
Looking at A&M's defensive stats and knowing Missouri's tendencies, it is pretty likely that Mizzou will end up taking 20-25 3-pointers in this game. They will be open enough to take, and lord knows this team is willing to take them. So ... uh ... make them. Mizzou's 3-point percentage has been hilariously variant in SEC play. The Tigers made 60% against Alabama, 11% against Ole Miss, 41% against Georgia, 22% against Florida and South Carolina, 52% against Vanderbilt, 28% against LSU and 38% against Auburn. Reach that 38% mark, and you'll probably win.
(Looking at you, Earnest Ross. You're allowed to make them on the road, too.)
I was underestimating this offense, apparently. Mizzou only took 12 3-pointers all game and found quite a bit of success attacking the basket and getting to the free throw line. The Tigers only made 33% of the 3's they did take, and making one more would have made a hell of a difference, obviously, but this didn't end up being that much of a factor.
Dip into that bench
A&M's bench is pretty dreadful. With players like Ray Turner and Alex Caruso more than willing to get into foul trouble, and with A&M content to play at a snail's crawl, it would benefit Missouri greatly to attack these players, pick up the pace, get Turner and/or Caruso into foul trouble, and force Billy Kennedy to go to his bench more than he cares to. If R. Turner and Caruso are each allowed to cross the 25-minute mark, A&M is a much, much better team.
(Meanwhile, it would be fantastic if Alex Oriakhi were to not get into foul trouble on the road for once.)
Ray Turner: 28 minutes, four fouls.
Alex Caruso: 23 minutes, two fouls.
So basically, the two were allowed to play an average of about 25 minutes each. We'll call this one a push.
You're going to have to win one of these at some point, Mizzou.
(Oh yeah, and you probably shouldn't lose to Ole Miss tomorrow.)
AdjGS: a take-off of the Game Score metric (definition here) accepted by a lot of basketball stat nerds. It takes points, assists, rebounds (offensive & defensive), steals, blocks, turnovers and fouls into account to determine an individual's "score" for a given game. The "adjustment" in Adjusted Game Score is simply matching the total game scores to the total points scored in the game, thereby redistributing the game's points scored to those who had the biggest impact on the game itself, instead of just how many balls a player put through a basket.
Usage%: This "estimates the % of team possessions a player consumes while on the floor" (via). The usage of those possessions is determined via a formula using field goal and free throw attempts, offensive rebounds, assists and turnovers. The higher the number, the more prevalent a player is (good or bad) in a team's offensive outcome.
Floor%: Via Basketball-Reference.com: Floor % answers the question, "when Player X uses a possession, what is the probability that his team scores at least 1 point?". The higher the Floor%, the more frequently the team probably scores when the given player is involved.
Touches/Possession: Using field goal attempts, free throw attempts, assists and turnovers, Touches attempt to estimate "the number of times a player touched the ball in an attacking position on the floor." Take the estimated touches and divide it by the estimated number of possessions for which a player was on the court, and you get a rough idea of how many times a player touched the ball in a given possession. For point guards, you'll see the number in the 3-4 range. For shooting guards and wings, 2-3. For an offensively limited center, 1.30. You get the idea.
Anyway, using the Touches figure, we can estimate the percentage of time a player "in an attacking position" passes, shoots, turns the ball over, or gets fouled.

Great Product
This is a great product. I came up on it accidently whenmy husband wanted something other than a cigarette to put in his mouth. He had pneumonia, after 16 days in the hospital he was forced to stop smoking. These has improved his diet, his attitude terrifically. I much rather keep a supply of these toothpicks than buying 3-4 cartons of cigarettes per week. These are excellent and I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you!

Thursday Plantation Tea Tree Sticks
If you ever wanted a quality toothpick/chewing stick then this is it. These are great after a meal when you cannot get to a toothbrush. The flavor last for several hours - no kidding. I put one of these in my mouth before driving home from work which is a 1 1/4 hour drive. It still has flavor when I get home. No need for candy to chew on.
I even gave some to my brother who was in the hospital and could not get out of bed to brush his teeth. He wanted more of them. Try them. You will not be disappointed.
