The middle rounds of this season's Europa League provide the best matchups of the tournament. Most of the teams who actually have a shot at making a deep run in this competition, big league sides and talented teams from second-tier leagues alike, are facing off against each other over the next two matchdays.
Liverpool face a difficult fight to stay in the competition, with a couple of matches against Anzhi Makhachkala, the über-rich side that leads the Russian Premier League. They play at Anfield on Thursday, and will need three points to feel comfortable about their position heading into the second half of the group stage. Newcastle face a similarly tough test, against Belgian league leaders Club Brugge. Those games, along with Dnipro against Napoli, are the games to watch during the late slate.
The most eye-catching game of the early slate features Lyon hosting Athletic Bilbao, who have struggled domestically this season. Another Spanish side, Levante, also hosts a fantastic match against Dutch title contenders FC Twente, while Rosenborg, the leaders in Norway, host knockout stage regulars Metalist Kharkiv.

Jailed Lawyer Says He Doesn't Remember Teen Sex-Sting Guilty Plea, Seeks Do-Over
Posted Jan 13, 2012 4:50 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
When he signed a plea agreement last year concerning a trip to Florida for the alleged purpose of helping a 14-year-old boy explore intimacy, he wasn't in his right mind, a Maryland lawyer told a federal court in Orlando in a handwritten motion yesterday.
Stressed, anxious, tearful and suicidal, he doesn't even remember what happened, Howard Scott Kalin said in a motion seeking to vacate his plea due to what he describes as ineffective counsel, diminished mental capacity and malicious prosecution. reports the Orlando Sentinel.
Pressured by his lawyer to take the plea last year, Kalin, now 48, says in the filing he has "no clear recollection of the plea hearing, no clear recollection of questions asked to defendant, no clear recollection of defendant's responses, if any, and absolutely no conscious recollection of any matter discussed during this hearing."

How-to: Use the ShareLib in Apache Oozie
- by Robert Kanter
- December 18, 2012
- 1 comment
Ed. Note: The post below pertains to CDH 4.x only. Read this post for updates concerning CDH 5.x.
As Apache Oozie, the workflow engine for Apache Hadoop, continues to receive wider adoption from our customers and the community, we're seeing patterns with respect to the biggest challenges for users. One such point of difficulty is setting up and using Oozie's ShareLib for allowing JARs to be shared by different workflows. This blog post is intended to help you with those tasks (for CDH 4.x only; read about changes in CDH 5.x here.
A missing or improperly installed ShareLib will cause some action types (DistCp, Streaming, Pig, Sqoop, and Hive) to fail. In this case, you'll typically see any of the following exceptions in the Oozie and JobTracker logs:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.hadoop.tools.DistCp java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/pig/Main java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.pig.Main java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/sqoop/Sqoop java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.sqoop.Sqoop java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/hadoop/hive/cli/CliDriver java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.hadoop.hive.cli.CliDriver java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Class org.apache.hadoop.streaming.PipeMapRunner not found
Before exploring these errors, let's first discuss what the ShareLib is and how it works.
Why Use the ShareLib?
Suppose you have an Oozie workflow that runs a MapReduce action. You want to specify your own Mapper and Reducer classes, but how does Oozie know where to find those two classes?
There are two ways to let Oozie know about Mapper and Reducer classes or any other additional JARs required by your workflow. The first approach is based on the fact that a workflow typically consists of a job.properties file, a workflow.xml file, and an optional lib folder (and perhaps other files such as Pig scripts). Usually, you'd place them in a folder like this:
$ sudo -u oozie hadoop fs -ls examples/apps/demo/ Found 4 items -rw-r--r-- 1 oozie supergroup 930 2012-12-14 13:23 examples/apps/demo/id.pig -rw-r--r-- 1 oozie supergroup 1020 2012-12-14 13:23 examples/apps/demo/job.properties drwxr-xr-x - oozie supergroup 0 2012-12-14 13:23 examples/apps/demo/lib -rw-r--r-- 1 oozie supergroup 6136 2012-12-14 13:23 examples/apps/demo/workflow.xml
Oozie will take any of the JARs that you put in that lib folder and automatically add them to your workflow's classpath when it's executed. This is the simplest approach.
Alternatively, you can use the
oozie.libpath property in your job.properties file to specify additional HDFS directories (multiple directories can be separated by a comma) that contain JARs. The advantage of using this property over the lib folder discussed above is in cases where you have many workflows all using the same set of JARs.
For example, suppose you have 20 workflows that each need the same three additional JARs. Instead of storing and maintaining 20 copies of each of the three JARs (that's 20 x 3 – 3 = 57 redundant JARs), you can simply keep the three JARs in one location and have all your workflows refer to that one copy. (Technically, there would be even more copies because of HDFS replication.)
How Does the ShareLib Work?
Some of the actions – specifically DistCp, Streaming, Pig, Sqoop, and Hive – require external JAR files in order to run successfully. Instead of having to keep these JAR files in each workflow's lib folder, or forcing the user to manually manage them via the
oozie.libpath property on every workflow using one of these actions, Oozie provides the ShareLib. The ShareLib behaves very similarly to
oozie.libpath, except that it's specific to the aforementioned actions and their required JARs. Here's what the (MRv1) ShareLib looks like in CDH 4.1.2:
drwxr-xr-x share drwxr-xr-x share/lib drwxr-xr-x share/lib/distcp -rw-r--r-- share/lib/distcp/hadoop-tools-2.0.0-mr1-cdh4.1.2.jar drwxr-xr-x share/lib/hive -rw-r--r-- share/lib/hive/JavaEWAH-0.3.2.jar

-rw-r--r-- share/lib/sqoop/sqoop-1.4.1-cdh4.1.2.jar
As you can see, the above actions each depend on many JARs that you now don't have to worry about after deploying the ShareLib. Each of these actions has its own folder with its own JARs; this allows Oozie to use only the JARs required for that action instead of including every JAR. In fact, this is necessary because not all of these actions use the same, or even compatible, versions of the JARs. For example, the Hive action uses antlr-runtime-3.0.1.jar and will fail if used with antlr-runtime-3.4.jar, which is what the Pig action uses.
How to Install and Use the ShareLib
By default, the ShareLib should be placed in the home folder in HDFS of the user who started the Oozie web server; this is not necessarily the same user as the one submitting a job. In CDH3 and CDH4, this user is named 'oozie'. The property in oozie-site.xml for setting the location of the ShareLib is called
oozie.service.WorkflowAppService.system.libpath and its default value is /user/${user.name}/share/lib, where ${user.name} gets resolved to the user who started the Oozie server. Hence, the default location to install the ShareLib is /user/oozie/share/lib. More detailed instructions for installing the ShareLib can be found in the CDH4 Oozie documentation here. (A future release of Cloudera Manager will be able to install the ShareLib automatically.)
One caveat: Because CDH4 supports MRv1 and YARN, the CDH4 Oozie installation provides separate ShareLib archives for MRv1 (oozie-sharelib.tar.gz) and YARN (oozie-sharelib-yarn.tar.gz). It is important that the correct one is installed based on which version of Hadoop is being used.
To enable a workflow to use the ShareLib, you would simply specify
oozie.use.system.libpath=true in the job.properties file and Oozie will know to include the jars in the ShareLib with the necessary actions in your job.
Overriding the ShareLib
In CDH 4.1.0 and later (or Oozie 3.3.0 and later), you can override the ShareLib location at the action, job, and server levels. This allows users or admins to support multiple versions or a patched version of an action at the same time. The property is called
oozie.action.sharelib.for.actiontype, where
actiontype is the name of the action type (e.g. Pig, Sqoop); you would set its value to the name of a subfolder in the ShareLib. To set it at the action level you would put the property in that action's
; to set it at the job level, you would put the property in that job's
job.properties; and to set it at the server level, you would put the property in oozie-site.xml.
For example, Oozie currently ships ready for Pig 0.10.x, but suppose you also want to be able to use Pig 0.9.x in the same workflow. The share/lib/pig folder is for Pig 0.10.x, but if you add a new folder with the Pig 0.9.x JARs, say share/lib/pig-9, you can put the following in the
element for the Pig 0.9.x action:
oozie.action.sharelib.for.pig pig-9
Oozie will continue to use share/lib/pig for the Pig 0.10.x action but will use share/lib/pig-9 for the Pig 0.9.x action.
Now that you understand the purpose of the ShareLib, how it works, and how to use it, you can better leverage it in your Oozie workflows. As Oozie continues to grow and mature, features such as the ShareLib make it easier to use. In the future, OOZIE-1054 will make it even easier for users by providing a script that installs the ShareLib.

Is it possible to specify for a certain action (e.g a java action) two folders with jars from the share lib(e.g. hive and pig)?

9/11 Conspiracy Theorist Interrupts MVP Malcolm Smith's Post-Game Interview [VIDEO]
In case you missed the post-game interview with Super Bowl MVP Malcolm Smith, here it is!
In case you missed the post-game interview with Super Bowl MVP Malcolm Smith, here it is!
A couple of guys walk into Subway with a coupon. Sounds like the beginning of a joke, but the joke was on Subway. This was a made up ad supposedly put on by the web site The Onion. Its not as funny as you would think. It was to make fun of 9/11. Just look at the ad, and check out the video on how it was all done.
After the terrorist attacks of 9/11 on our country, we all had our guard up when we entered into a public domain or arena. I was fortunate enough to attend the first LSU home football game after 9/11/01 and it was the most intense atmosphere I had ever experienced in any stadium. Yet, during pregame festivities, all fears and concerns for our safety quickly evaporated when LSU's marching band took to the field.
Sometimes you can commemorate an anniversary with a special sale, but when it comes to the anniversary of an attack on our country where thousands of people lost their lives it's best to proceed with caution.
As if we needed another reason to hate the Kardashians...
At 8:46 a.m. on Tuesday, September 11, most national news outlets took a break from their regular programming to air a special "moment of silence" from New York City and Washington D.C. to honor the victims of 9/11. We say "most" because, as it turns out, not everyone was a participant. While FOX, CBS, ABC, CNBC and MSNBC went quiet at this time, which was the moment 11 years ago when the first plane hit the Twin Towers, NBC continued on with the 'Today' show, which just so happened to feature an interview with Kris Jenner of 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians.'
Every year on September 11th, it is nearly impossible to look at the visual date on a calendar and not think of the events that took place on that tragic day back in 2001. Regardless of the conspiracy theories, or any reasoning behind why such a tragedy took place - it was a cowardly attack on our country and our freedom, and innocent lives were lost.
Paramedics were called Friday morning after troubled actress Lindsay Lohan was found unconscious in the penthouse of a California hotel.
After a new interview with Men's Journal, Mark Wahlberg is under fire for perhaps taking his own image as an action star a bit too seriously.
We have seen several good television commercials today as we honor the ten year anniversay of 9/11. However, of the all, there is one that stands out amongst the rest. All day, as soon I heard this commercial come on, I stopped what I was doing to watch it. Something about kids honoring heroes and city there were so impacted on this day, yet they were not even old enough, or born, to understand the magnitude of 9/11/01.

"We over here at The Swag Section have been working very hard to bring you all of the best local, and global, content as possible; from the hottest in music right now, to the latest and greatest in the world of fashion. With this goal in mind, The Swag Section has teamed up with the guys at Maknation, a local culture and media organization currently based out of our hometown of Gainesville, Fl.
Maknation was founded about a year ago with a similar goal as The Swag Section's in mind: to bring fresh ideas and ripe content to the youth around us. So far, they've had an impressive response with a competition known as "Mak Models", in which individuals are chosen to represent their universities based on their style, demeanor, and other Mak characteristics. Three contestants are chosen from each school, and they are then voted on by their peers to advance to a Finalist stage, where only one model goes on to represent their University. In the end One (1) model will be chosen (female-only at this point) to become the reigning Mak Model, and enjoy all of the privileges therein. The competition has been focused at Florida Universities so far, but a broader scope is already in the works."

The victim has been named as 21-year-old Cassondra Sympson. She was a passenger in the vehicle that was struck Sunday evening.
On 04/28/2013 at approximately 5:41pm Beloit Police and Fire Units were dispatched to a traffic crash with injuries at the intersection of Copeland Avenue and Yates Avenue. Responding units discovered one vehicle overturned with four occupants and the other vehicle involved had been abandoned. One of four occupants was pinned in the vehicle and had to be extricated by the Fire Department.
The vehicle that contained the four occupants was traveling westbound on Copeland Avenue at Yates. The other vehicle involved was traveling southbound on Yates Avenue at Copeland Avenue. The southbound vehicle was apparently traveling at high speed, failed to stop for the stop sign, and subsequently collided with the westbound vehicle. Both occupants of the southbound vehicle fled the scene on foot immediately after the crash.
Police investigators are pursuing all possible leads in identifying and locating the occupants that fled the vehicle after the crash. Police evidence technicians are assisting the Wisconsin State Patrol with evidence collection and the reconstruction of the crash at the scene.
Three victims from the westbound vehicle were treated at a local hospital for their injuries, which were not life threatening. Two children, under the age of 2 were injured in the crash. A 21 year old female passenger from Beloit died at a local hospital. A helicopter had been summoned, however, the patient died prior to being transported to a trauma center.
No names will be released until tomorrow morning. The investigation remains active.

O97M/Halfcros is a polymorphic VBA macro virus that infects both Microsoft Word 97 documents and Excel 97 spreadsheets.
Disinfection & Removal
Automatic Disinfection
Allow F-Secure Anti-Virus to disinfect the relevant files.
For more general information on disinfection, please see Removal Instructions.
Technical Details
It consist of two parts, a clear text part and an encoded part. The clear text part will take care of decoding the virus code as needed.
The virus activates when an infected document is opened in Word. It disables the built-in macro virus protection and infects the global template. When the global tempate is infected, the virus will infect all opened Word documents.
When the infected document is closed the virus launches Excel. It checks if there is a file called "Book1." in the Excel's startup directory, and if the file does not exist it disables the Excel's macro virus protection via registry. It then creates and infects the "Book1." file.
Within Excel the virus activates when an infected sheet is deactivated. It uses Word to disable Excel's built-in macro virus protection via registry, and it attempts to infects Word's global template. Then the "Book1." file will be created to the Excel's startup directory if it does not exist.
This virus has a non-destructive payload that activates if user opens an infected document in Word between 12:10 and 12:25 on any day when it displays a message box with a title:
Wonder v2.0 by ThE wEiRd GeNiUs
and with a text:

There's a pet therapy program at the Glen Retirement System in Shreveport. For thirteen years, they have brought in pets to love on the patients. It's a love that works both ways and that's why KTBS 3's Rick Rowe has classified it as an ArkLaTex Best.
The end can be sad and lonely; your spouse is gone and the kids have moved away. Some may feel like nobody cares anymore, but that's not what Rick Rowe found at the Glen Retirement System.
Mary Hardesty lost her husband, her kids are gone but she's having a ball.
"They make us live longer and lower our blood pressure. The love I get, there is no comparison" says Hardesty.
At the Glen Retirement System, the animals sort of run the place.
The animals bring life and make everyone smile.
For 13 years now, Maureen Kidd has been bringing her animals, Connor and Bently to see the residents. Sometimes, there's a medical reason for their visit. Connor just thinks he's getting a rub down but he's actually giving residents a workout for some muscles and joints that could use it.
Occasionally there's a scandal.
"He used to sleep with me, the cat, but he found another lady down the hall; found another woman" says one of Glen's residents.
But mostly, it's puppy love; heart stuff, the kind of magic that happens when unconditional love meets unconditional love. Residents here at Glen enjoy the smiles from the animals; it relaxes them and they can forget their troubles.
Here's the latest on Tropical Storm Dolly.

According to LeSean McCoy Kevin Kolb was tipping off the Cardinals defense on what plays they were running. This makes sense seeing as he knows the system, it also makes sense, because other players have done this before.
Today on WIP Ike Reese admitted in 2005 he not only gave all the plays to ATL, but helped devise the defensive game plan to stop the Eagles in the season opener. Not surprsingly, the Eagles struggled mightily on offense that gane and this one.
It's also hard not to believe, that Steve Smith didn't give Juan Castillo all the information he has on the Giants offense either. But, seeing as you can give Juan the best cover corner in the league and see terrible results, it didn't seem to matter.
Lastly, this also just reflects on Andy as well. At some point, you have to know Kolb is tipping off the defense. Shady knew it, which means the offense knew it, which means Andy knew it as well. You also have to figure that he was going to do this...and to be honest, why wouldn't he? It's not illegal and it has happened before.
But you would think, knowing that it has happened before, and knowing it was currently happening in the game, the Eagles would've done something differently to counter act this .. FULL ON KNOWING WHAT PLAYS YOU'RE GOING TO RUN!
What an exclamation point, to a terrible game, and a terrible season.

But perhaps its most stellar statistic was its average sales price, which grew by 60% in the value of new sales and by 38% in the value of homes closed during the quarter. The increase was due to larger homes, a shift in its geographic mix to more expensive markets, and pricing power, the company said."We experienced broad improvement in most of our markets this quarter, and we significantly increased our investments in homes under construction, finished lots, land, and land development to capture the increasing demand," Donald R.

An early morning scare for Bryan LGH East after a third floor hallway fills up with smoke.
Luckily patients did not have to be evacuated and no one was injured, but the smoke did cause the fire department to call for a full response.
Multiple fire trucks sat outside Bryan LGH East just after midnight Wednesday while fire fighters investigate the cause of the smoke.
As fire crews arrived, they say they could see smoke in the first floor lobby area of the hospital.
Fire crews found that the cause of the smoke was a vending machine that dispenses coffee.
Battalion Chief Derald Murrell said, "the electrical system overheated and caused some smoke to travel in the third floor area and also the fourth and fifth floors."
Fire officials say they were able to clear the smoke quickly through the hospital's own ventilation system.
Again, no one was in danger and no one was injured.

Weborgs purchase Coors Building
A new event center is planned for the twin cities after Lisa and Troy Weborg Friday finalized the purchase of the Coors Warehouse and Distribution property on the Scottsbluff-Gering Highway from the Jim Raymond Estate. The Weborgs currently own the Steel Grill in Gering and Bar 64 in Bridgeport and Lisa says their new property will compliment their existing businesses and allow them to take it one step further.
Troy says the size of the warehouse "blew him away" and has the potential as a large venue for major bands, weddings, celebrations, and convention style events, adding with the food they can cater to this facility it is a "win-win situation". Lisa said the Coors property with its hospitality room and other areas in addition to the warehouse can host gatherings from ten to over 500 people.
Lisa says the Weborgs will try to preserve the "warehouse" feel while making it very enticing for special occasions. She also says the two and a half acre lot behind the warehouse is the "best kept secret on the Scottsbluff-Gering Highway" , and with its view of the Scotts Bluff National Monument and panorama can be used for outside weddings and gatherings
Troy says the south side of the back lot will be cleared for a large parking area and the hospitality room will be available this fall for private football and holiday parties with a bar and 60-70" television. The Weborgs will host Miss Nebraska Jacee Pilkington's fundraising event late next month to show what the warehouse is like now so people can compare to what it will be next year when it is finished to host large events.
The building will also serve as the office for the Steel Grill and Bar 64, will have a kitchen and locker areas for cutting meat, and possibly a retail area to sell wine and meat.

Candidates back in Ohio
Ohio will be a popular place again this week.
Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney will be in Ohio Tuesday accompanied by New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie for a multiple-stop tour. It will be his first visit to the state since Wednesdays debate. Romney will stop in Cuyahoga Falls on Tuesday afternoon. On Wednesday, stops are planned in Mount Vernon and Delaware before ending the day in Clark County. Details of the Wednesday stops have not been confirmed by the Romney campaign.
Running mate Paul Ryan will be in Toledo this morning. That means both Romney or Ryan will be in the state over the three days leading up to the vice presidential debates Thursday in Danville.
President Barack Obama will be at Ohio State University at 6 p.m. Tuesday.
That means Vice President Joe Biden is the only candidate not scheduled to be in Ohio this week, but that could change.
Empty steel mills. Faded small towns. Swollen jobless rolls.
Thats how Ohio looks to some outsiders even though its unemployment rate is about 1 percentage point below the national average and its enjoying an economic recovery fueled by a natural gas boom and a revival of the auto industry.
As happens every four years, Ohio is now under a national and international media microscope. With four weeks to go until Election Day, hundreds of TV reporters, newspaper scribes and political bloggers from across the U.S. and the globe have descended on the Buckeye State.
Theyre grilling Ohio voters about national issues and political preferences trying to unearth hints about how the election might turn out and trying to paint a picture of the ultimate swing state for readers who dont have a front-row seat to the political showdown. Some of the stories include stereotypes of a rust-belt state in decline, while others offer a truer, richer portrait.
One thing every reporter gets right: Ohio will be key to the outcome of this presidential election.
It seems that in this country there are only three states: Ohio, Virginia and Florida, said Fabienne Sintes, a U.S.-based correspondent for Radio France. Sintes said many of her reporter colleagues in France are coming to the U.S. for the final stretch of the presidential campaign and most of them are going to rush to Ohio.
So how does Ohio look from the outside?
The perception of Ohio in France, Sintes said, is of a place populated by working-class Americans, hit hard by the decline in manufacturing and the 2008 economic meltdown.
Unemployment is still very high, and the subprime crisis of 2008 has left Cleveland neighborhoods devastated, Sintes wrote in a Sept. 26 blog post, but the state through longstanding economic diversification and the return of the automotive industry, is less badly off than it could have been.
American journalists paint a similar picture.
The jobs are still scarce, the steel mills are hollowed out and many of the smokestacks spew nothing into a clean and clear post-industrial sky, the Washington Post wrote last month in a 2,657-word story about Ohio.
The piece detailed how residents of Jefferson County were not the elusive swing voters so coveted by each party, but deeply entrenched partisans hardened and fractured by a tough economy and the divisive national debate. Grim and gritty as this corner of the world may be, Post reporter Joel Achenbach wrote, people still have their hopes.
Some Ohioans are fed up with what they see as a distortion of their native state and their comments to a press corps thats looking for a good storyline.
They didnt put in what I said about the mills, about the industrial park, about how were progressing and putting people to work. Nothing, said Stratton Mayor John Adballa, who was interviewed by the Post.
Then he said he wasnt going to do any more press interviews including with this reporter.
The Associated Press started a story this month this way:
To look at Ohio is to glimpse America in a nutshell a state full of places where laborers, truck drivers, cooks, store clerks and business owners form the backbone of small-town life. Places where the deli cashes checks, cars and trucks are vehicles and the NFL takes a back seat to high-school football.
Shuttered steel mills and the Great Recession have drained businesses and jobs from what once were vibrant towns. Many dislike the Obama administrations stance on the coal industry, which puts food on thousands of tables in this region, the AP reporter wrote from near the West Virginia border.
Searching for the real Ohio
Theres little question that the political press is drawn to Ohios suburbs and its down-and-out corners places where they can find a wavering independent still torn about the presidential election, or a deflated member of Romneys 47 percent.
Take, for example, a Philadelphia Inquirer story headlined: Must-win Ohio is under siege. The story was reported from New Lexington, described as the seat of a divided county in a divided state in a divided country.
The reporter noted that Perry County is a bellwether, matching statewide election results more closely than any other Ohio county. And it featured a couple undecided voters who were lukewarm about both Obama and Romney.
In fact, only 11.5 percent of Ohioans work in manufacturing. More work in professional or business services, or for the government, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data.
The real Ohio, to some outsiders, isnt in Cincinnati or Cleveland, but in Mansfield and Mingo Junction.
There seems to be a fascination with southeast Ohio, the Mingo Junctions and that, said David Cohen, a political science professor at the University of Akron.
Thats where theres a big concentration of white, working-class voters who arent crazy about the president but theyre also not crazy about Mitt Romney either, Cohen said. Voters in that toss-up region make for a good narrative, he noted, but its not where the big political story will unfold on Election Night.
Frankly, Southeast Ohio is the least populated part of the state, he noted, . . . and theyre probably not going to decide the election.
The real question in Ohio, Cohen said, is whether Obama will be able to turn his base out in Northeastern Ohio, in and around Cleveland, and whether Romney will turn out his base in the Southwest, in and around Cincinnati. The I-71 corridor, that is the key to the election right there, without a doubt, Cohen said.
Still, Cohen says the media has painted an accurate picture of the Buckeye State overall. The stories have not portrayed the state as a monolithic, homogenous place but actually complicated and very diverse. And Cincinnati has hardly been ignored by the candidates or the press.
Hamilton County, for starters, has starred in a Wall Street Journal series.
Mitt Romneys hopes of carrying Ohio rest on areas like Hamilton County here in the states southwest corner, a former GOP stronghold, and on voters like Susan Houghton, a lapsed Republican voter, the Journal reported last month from Anderson Township.
Cohen says he doubts many Buckeye residents are soaking up the media spotlight. But as the election showdown ramps up, the image Ohio projects is important.
Theres a reason its considered a microcosm of the country, he said. It does reflect the worries, the concerns, and the passions of America as a whole.
Gail Collins, a New York Times columnist, had a lighter take on Ohios role. In a Sept. 26 piece, she fantasized about being an undecided voter in Ohio.
Honest to gosh, can you imagine the love? she wrote. If a wavering Buckeye state voter had a twitter account, she added, people in China and Bulgaria who wanted to understand whats going on in this election would just check in with #IhavenoideainSteubenville.

Officers search for missing woman
Specially trained officers are carrying out detailed searches on open land in Helmsley in North Yorkshire for missing woman Barbara Colling. They will be focusing their efforts along roads and footpaths from Newgate Bank along the B1257 back towards Helmsley and out to the the Cleveland Way.
Barbara was last seen walking along the B1257 near Abbotts Hag at around 9.30am on Monday January 28 2013. Rescue teams, a specialist tracker dog and air support units have so far been involved in the search to find her. Barbara is described as white, 5ft 2in tall, of medium build with medium length blonde hair. She was last seen wearing a navy blue jacket, blue trousers, a black woollen hat with ear flaps and black boots. It is thought Barbara was carrying a black rucksack.
– Inspector Andy Everitt, North Yorkshire Police
"Specialist search teams are out in and around Helmsley again today as we remain fully focused on trying to find Barbara.
Her family are obviously very concerned for her welfare and want her back as soon as possible.
Barbara has been missing for a few days now and the public can really help with the effort to find her by reporting sightings of anyone matching her description.
I would also ask residents to check their sheds and other outbuildings in case Barbara has taken shelter somewhere."
Inspector Everitt urged people to look out for any discarded clothing and urged the public to particularly look out for Barbara at churches in the area.
– Inspector Andy Everitt, North Yorkshire Police
"We know that Barbara likes churches and likes to visit them, so I would ask people who either work in churches or are regular visitors to be especially vigilant at this time."

We've got no real quarrel with Donald Trump here at New Construction Manhattan. Aesthetically, we might favor Superior Ink or HL23 over the "big gold box" style of the older Trump Manhattan condominiums, but we can certainly see the appeal in new Trump condominiums such as
and Trump Place. And while The Donald's shouty, humorless self-promotion and cartoon ego can make him a little tough to take on television, even we have to give it up for Trump Park Avenue, which is one of the more impressive pre-war condo conversions on Park Avenue, and among the elite pre-war condo conversion listings in all of Manhattan. Yes, Trumpian real estate grandiosity can be a little silly. But no, we've got no problem with his luxury condominiums; luxury condominium listings are kind of our thing. But that doesn't mean we can't enjoy a good laugh at his expense from time to time. This would be one of those times.
At New Construction Manhattan, we are not unaware that people browsing Manhattan apartment listings are often looking for different things. This is why we've built our advanced condo search function so that NYC apartment hunters can search condos in specific price ranges and apartments near specific landmarks and so on. It's our hope that a more focused and specific way to search Manhattan condos will lead to a more satisfying and successful experience. That said, there is not currently a search function at NCM that enables you to find an apartment located near a delicious hamburger. For that, we use the NCM blog. No, seriously: we've covered food-related real estate news pretty extensively in the past, and we're not going to stop doing that. We do it for you, readers. And also we do it because we're hungry, and because (in this specific case) Shake Shack is delicious. And so it is with no small amount of delight that we inform New Construction Manhattan readers that condo listings in Battery Park City will very soon be rental listings near a delicious hamburger. And we are further pleased to announce that they are not alone.

2. New tools (sorta like Visual Studio) will evolve that will tell the programmer the cost per server DLL or compiled bundle. Imagine a tool that, after you compiled your code, would say "with 100,000 users this code will cost you $497 of Rackspace time, $535 of Amazon EC2 time, $524 of GoGrid time." -
Robert Scoble
More economic incentive to hire good programmers! -
Dean Clark
And with EzChip and Netlogic those apps will run faster than desktop apps! here we go into the future! -
Stephen Pickering
3. Employers will hire people who can write more efficent code, because it'll be in their best interests to do so. This is a huge change from today, where programmers are incented to "get it done" and not care so much about processor time. -
Robert Scoble
1a. Not really - developers will continue developing. This item refers to folks who make deployment decisions. -
Stephen and Dean: exactly! -
Robert Scoble
Process control and synchronization will become more important than load balancing. -
Brian Roy
2a. This in turn will cause fierce competition and will lower prices. -
Your second point is very interesting indeed. For subscription based services you can really pin-point cost vs. price and adjust dynamically/automatically when the code changes (especially in a cost +) scenario. -
as far as web based stuff goes a more immediate realization is the bandwidth costs associated w/ images and other static file downloads. web guys n gals are now paying attention to client side caching, gzipping and all that good stuff that reduces bandwidth and overall # of http requests -
Tad: I disagree. Because EC2 and other cloud systems will charge for processor time (and other systems will charge for bandwidth amount) employers will start putting much more pressure on programmers to remove those costs from their code. -
Robert Scoble
3a. I'll believe it when I see it. Even when shown all of the advantages of agile and test driven development most CTOs continue to view it with scorn. As long as non-technical managers are driving the bus there will never be enough focus on quality of code. -
Niall was also saying that programmers will choose between available code (Wordpress plugins, for instance) based on how much processor time they take. Word will get around that XYZ plugin does basically the same thing as ABC plugin but does it in 20% less processor time, which will reduce cost. -
Robert Scoble
Tad: when the CTO is seeing the credit card statement from cloud computing every month they'll start looking into it. They might be lazy, but if the tools present cost per component these things will change, and change quickly. Especially if the economy remains as crappy as it is today. -
Robert Scoble
It'll still be a race to see who can put what out the first. Regardless of cost or quality, many time the guy first out of the gate wins. As long as you're first you can always go back and fix things later... Or so most of the development managers I've known seem to think. -
I think there may be a large amount of work going into profiling and optimizing frameworks/apps, but most developers won't worry about "processor" time. We'll write the code and then there'll be a bigger emphasis on clearing up bottlenecks, etc. Biggest change might just be in best practices. -
Let me clarify - the biggest single waste of processing cycles is processes running with nothing to do. Being able to dynamically allocate and retire "processing units" by controlling which processes are running when and were is the 80%. Code optimization is the 20%. No argument it will become an issue, but really efficient code idling is a far bigger waste than code with 4% wasted processor time. -
Brian Roy
++ Brian -
Virtualization will get more attention with cloud computing models in the future. Virtualization will enable organizations to create virtual instances designed to dynamically isolate processes and services so systems can inter-operate with minimal impacts when 1 process hangs or gets saturated. This way we can shape our systems to align hardware, code and processes to optimal fit -
Susan Beebe
I had a post on this a while back Cloud Programming Directly Feeds Cost Allocation Back into Software Design (
). The optimizations will be different for different clouds. For Amazon the goal is drive load to the CPU (
). Other clouds will no doubt favor other optimizations. -
Todd Hoff
Right Susan. I've also read that virtualization in the cloud will also make services much more robust because if one data center or even service provider (ex. EC2) bites the dust, it'll be possible to relatively seamlessly switch to another. Virtualization on the cloud is very exciting. -
Toddh - great point. I assumed an on/off virtual CPU like Amazon - which would mean the goal is high CPU utilization. If the model is % load based or how much CPU you actually use the model is very different. -
Brian Roy
Tad I think you're right and those coming out of the universities need to start listening to their Instructors ( I was an Instructor) on taking the time for best practices. Most coder wannabes at least in the U I taught at wanted to "get in and get er done". Very impatient. -
Melanie Reed
... and they can come to learn what impact they are having on the state of the climate - and the planet as a whole -
James Pearce
This is really nothing new -- mainframe developers could also have a sense of how much their code cost. -
Michael Lee
I wonder if it would provide incentives to tier access to CPU heavy functionalities when the load starts to scale up. With few users, you want to attract users, so you offer everything you have, but as you get more users, to make sure that you can manage your cost increase, you need the additional users to be more CPU efficient, so maybe you will not let them access the more CPU hungry functionalities... -
Antoine Bertier
+1 Michael, in fact it goes back to time sharing days.... -
Antoine Bertier
Cloud computing is time-sharing or load sharing, or load balancing. We haven't thought about it enough as a concept. See Brad Templeton's talk at
Francine Hardaway
Michael: one difference, though. Lots of programmer friends of mine have Cloud Computing accounts at Amazon, Gogrid, or Rackspace and are writing and uploading code there. I was just at Gogrid and got a demo and their cost report is in your face. You know exactly how much is being charged to your credit cards. Back in the mainframe days the costs of those things were so high only the biggest corporations could afford them and no one had credit cards back then. The feedback loop is much faster. -
Robert Scoble
software development / programming cost depends on cost of communication, it's 80/20 not aiming at the 2nd performance or energy percentile. though, tuning specialization could emerge due to selling to the uninformed - without ever breaking even... -
wolf hesse
I finally posted more detailed thoughts on the current cloud computing landscape and ways we might measure code efficiency and cost in the future.
Niall Kennedy
programmers and arch designers that can produce results that have a high perceived value and a low resource use (cpu, bandwidth, storage) will be rewarded. this may not result in better experiences for the user, tho. -
Its not because of cloud computing, its because of a recent trend in accountability. But I like your point, Scoble. -
Aaron deMello
For business applications, MVC-like platforms (JBoss, CakePHP, RoR) will win in the end with cloud computing. Since they support pattern expansion they are very efficient, the prerequisite for cloud computing. The programmers themselves don't matter that much in this case, analysts and architects do however. On the contrary, writing computational intensive code (e.g. C++) will require the BEST people. Those who know their algorithms will thrive. -
Basically it comes down to this: machines should work; people should think. Something that IBM has called the Pollyanna principle.
I agree with Robert in that CTO's might start thinking differently when they get that bill every month from Rackspace (or whoever), but in a grand scheme of things I don't think anything will be "really" done about programmers code and the processing power that it uses. If that was really the case, we'd all start programming in C again... or even Assembly! -
Daniel Marashlian
i suspect that providers will learn that CTOs are looking to shave costs. as a counter-measure, providers will sell 'blocks' of CPU/Bandwidth/Storage ala fixed cell phone plans. they'll capture the 'monthly remainder' as extra profit. some will offer 'roll-overs' to soothe CTOs. the ones that offer totally metered pricing will be shouted down by the FUD of 'runaway' monthly costs touted by the packagers. oh yeah, the pkg price magically matches the cost of your own hardwr/maint costs.CTOs will like that -
Business and marketing is always going to drive development, that's why 80% of software is never released. Even if it is released, functionality is always going to be #1 on the priority list. Testing, Bugs, UI, and especially performance are always last on the list. That's why a formal education in Computer Science is going to be more critical then ever in the years to come. All of those secondary pieces in the software development cycle need to be woven into the developers DNA. -
Daniel Marashlian
This really is full circle to the 70's and 80's again. One problem that I can see impacting on how competative the space could be is with the ease on how people can simply move supplier. If you have a service that involves data creation and handling (your customer CRM for example), how easy would it be to port that data across to a competing cloud based service for whatever reason (costs, disagreements, change in business)? I know what's involved on the inhouse side and would be similar in many respects. -

Meet New University of Delaware Head Coach Dave Brock
Fightin' new hen: The new coach brings an aggressive approach to football and academics. Can he continue—and even improve upon—the program's storied success?
(page 5 of 5)
The Blue Hen faithful are ready to fall in love with her husband, but they want to see results on the field, beginning this month—Aug. 29—in the home opener against Jacksonville.
Brock will do his best to deliver those results, but he knows success is a process, not a one-day event.
"Everyone who comes to the game, they see winning and losing as a three-hour segment on a Saturday afternoon or Thursday night," says the fifth Delaware head coach in the last 73 years. "I believe winning and losing is the six days and 21 hours you're not out there [on game day]. Prepare and perform and give great effort and energy—that's the belief system I have. And that's what we're committed to."

Not in my opinion. I don't see what Jenkins can do that Talib can't
FRG is the most logical poster on this board. You guys just don\'t like where the logical conclusions take you.
Of all positions you don't draft corners on their stats. Fewer tackles often mean QB's are throwing away from you.
if not for being the hometown guy, would so many here still love jenkins? give me the guy that is physical, likes contact, and supposedly has instincts. ive heard thats cason and flowers. if thats jenkins as well, bring him in.id be real happy with that draft, knocking out 2 of what i think are our big 3 needs...UT/CB/speedWR, return ability appreciated.
I question taking Mike Jenkins with Talib still on the board though
utspartan - preaching to the choir with me.
I think too much is made of 1st round corners. It seems that most are man to man defenders first, zone players second. We don't need man cover corners, therefore the drop in a CB's value to us.

"This is largely in response to customers we're working with," Tucker says. "When we deploy OpenStack into production, there are a lot of other considerations of how to integrate, operate and manage the OpenStack cloud. We've included those as part of reference architectures, scripts, and other important components that customers can use."
Cisco made the announcement in a blog post on Saturday, with links to a site where the Cisco OpenStack edition can be downloaded for free, along with a wiki describing various aspects of the code. Cisco uses a variety of other open source tools on top of the OpenStack code and uses automation tools from Puppet in the release. The Quantum code supports Layer 2 segmentation using virtual LAN technology and works on Open vSwitch and Cisco Nexus switches. The edition has been tested on Ubuntu 12.04 and does not require Cisco hardware to run it.
In addition to the OpenStack distribution, Cisco is making two other announcements at the OpenStack Summit this week. Cisco is using OpenStack code to create a private cloud within the company that will be used specifically by the WebEx team to create products and services. While Tucker wouldn't divulge what new features would be developed using the OpenStack platform, he says those should be revealed in coming months. Cisco wanted to run a production cloud powered by OpenStack in addition to offering a distribution of the OpenStack code. Cisco is also announcing new functionality in its Intelligent Automation for Cloud around being able to manage heterogeneous workloads. The Multi-cloud Accelerator kit will allow management of cloud architectures powered not only by Cisco and OpenStack, but by other third-party clouds, such as those from Amazon and VMware.
Tucker says customer interest in OpenStack is building. Recently the company launched a strategic relationship with Comcast, where the media company will use the Cisco edition of OpenStack as the base for its private cloud. Comcast is a contributing member to the OpenStack Foundation, but is not yet a full-fledged member. Outside of Comcast, Tucker says he's seen the interest from the public sector and government organizations that use it to power internal private clouds.

Best Of Wendy Langhans Reports
By: Mieko Alley
This week's Santa Clarita Valley Outdoor Report fills us in on the secret details of scat. Scat shape and appearance, marking territory, evidence of diet, and are just part of the lessons of scat. So get on out there and see what scat you see while hiking.
This is a Best of Wendy Langhans Report
I was sitting on front porch, enjoying an unusually warm January afternoon, when a moving shadow caught my eye. I looked up and saw an unexpected sight - a Turkey Vulture soaring overhead - so close that I could see the splayed-out feathers on its wing-tips.
Introducing Contributing Writer: Mieko Alley
As summer temperatures rise, you may be inclined to spend more time inside or drink more water as a response to the heat. Your dog may dig under the house to escape the sun or you may find that your cat has given up his perch on the windowsill. You may even find that your plants are behaving differently!
What a wild ride this has been!
When Carl Goldman and his son joined me for a Fire Ecology hike in Whitney Canyon in August, 2004, I had no idea it would lead to almost 10 years of sharing stories with you.
Dr. Francis Collins, the currect Director of the NIH, is one of my heroes because he is both a top-notch scientist and a Christian. I like his perspective on dealing with opposing points of view: "One must dig deeply into opposing points of view in order to know whether your own position remains defensible. Iron sharpens iron."
In this week's Santa Clarita Outdoor Report, Wendy Langhans tells us more on the extirpation or local extinction of Gray Wolves in California, and the possible comeback with a "Day Tripper Wolf" known as OR7.
This week's SCV Outdoor Report by Wendy Langhans tells us the difference between extinct and extirpated. Passenger pigeons, dinosaurs, gray wolves: vanished from earth or gone from a region?
Earlier this week, as I was watering my potted plants on the front porch, I discovered a new resident had moved in. There, smack dab in the middle of my sage plant, I spotted a nest with two small eggs. Later, I saw a Mourning Dove sitting on the nest, her two brown eyes carefully watching my every move.
Wendy Langhans' Santa Clarita Valley Outdoor Report, "The Ants Go Marching," answers questions about flower pollination. In part II, Wendy answers the "why" ants go marching.

By JEFF AMYAssociated PressJACKSON, Miss. (AP) - It's unlikely that students will attend charter schools in Mississippi in August 2014.Members of the new charter school board say there's not enough time to complete applications, approve them and set up schools by next fall.MORE: Reformers take issue with county charter schoolsMORE: Kuykendall opposed to MS charter school bill
In a meeting Monday, the Charter School Authorizer Board left open the possibility that some well-prepared applicants could be allowed to go ahead. But their applications might not be approved until early June, less than three months before the school year starts.The board is also seeking to hire a consultant to help members review applications. The board is required by law to seek applications by Dec. 1.The board has no state money, and it's not clear how the board would pay a consultant. It's soliciting donations, but hasn't received any yet.

Health Canada Labeling Regulations for Allergens including Gluten
In February 2011, Health Canada implemented new stronger labeling restrictions that "...require clearer language and the declaration of otherwise "hidden" allergens, gluten sources, and sulphites".
This is a big win for the Celiac's in Edmonton as well as Canada. It is sometimes tough to determine by looking at those long winded terms in the ingredients and determine if there is wheat or gluten in it. Especially since those labels never explicitly said wheat or gluten, but some sort of convoluted term.
There is all sorts of information about the new labeling regulations on Health Canada's website that will explain it in more detail, and some of the exemptions like Alcoholic Beverages. This brief outline is straight from the Health Canada website:
These regulatory amendments will require that the source of a food allergen or gluten be shown on the label of most prepackaged products when the food allergen or gluten is present in the prepackaged product. The food allergen or gluten source will be required to be shown on the product label in consistent and easy to understand terminology. For example, if casein is present in a prepackaged product, the word "milk" will be shown on the product label. The source of the food allergen or gluten will be shown either in the list of ingredients or in a "Contains" statement.Unfortunately there is no regulation for cross contamination, so it is still up to the manufacturer to place the label "Produced in a facility that has processed wheat/gluten"
Health Canada has given industry 18 months to implement these new labeling regulations.

Knowing which utensils to use at a formal dinner is essential if you want to make a good impression. Whether you're at an elegant dinner party or eating at a 5-star restaurant, you can show your knowledge of proper etiquette without being intimidated.
Remember that if you are ever in doubt about which fork to use, follow the lead of the host. Even if he or she uses the wrong fork, you'll show your respect by doing the same thing as long as you don't call attention to yourself or embarrass the host.
Utensil Placement
Generally, you can follow utensil placement in order from the one farthest from the plate and work your way inward. Forks go on the left, with the salad fork first, and then the dinner fork beside the plate. On the right side of the plate you will find the knife, appetizer or salad knife, spoon, soup spoon, and oyster fork. The knife blades should be positioned with the cutting sides closest to the plates. The fork and knife closest to the plate are for eating your main course.
The dessert fork or spoon in most cases will be placed parallel or diagonal to the edge of the table near the top of your plate. In some cases it may be set on the empty dessert plate. Not all formal place settings will have all the flatware mentioned; you will only find it if you will need it for one of the courses.
Proper Eating Techniques
Knowing how to eat with the utensils is important during a formal dinner. Place the fork in the hand you normally eat or write with. The American way to cut meat is to place the fork in the other hand to secure the meat in place and place the knife in your coordinated hand to cut the meat. Then put down the knife and switch the fork to your regular hand to lift the bite-sized pieces to your mouth.
The British way to cut and eat meat is to not switch the fork, but to lift the meat to your mouth with the fork in the hand you don't normally use. This saves the step of switching hands each time you need to cut the meat.
When eating soup you should use the bowl-shaped or larger oval spoon. Keep the soup bowl firmly on the table; never lift or tilt it. Scoop the soup away from you starting at the center of the bowl. Bring the spoon to your mouth and tilt it while sipping soup from the edge. You should never make a slurping noise when eating soup.
Additional Tips
When you are eating at a formal dinner, remember that the utensils are the tools. Each one has a purpose, and if you learn what that is, you shouldn't have any problems. At some informal gatherings, it is OK to eat chicken or pork chops with your hands. However, that isn't the case at formal dinners. You should always use your fork. Don't use your utensils to point or gesture.
When you drink water, tea, coffee, wine, or any other beverage, put down your utensils before picking up the glass or cup. After you use each piece, rest it on the edge of your plate; don't put it back in the lineup.
Remember that if you make a mistake, most people probably won't know if you don't call it to their attention. In fact, if you look around the table and watch others, you may find that you know as much or more about formal dinner etiquette than most of them. Avoid calling others out on improper etiquette because that shows worse manners than using the wrong fork.

West Country milk producers being forced out of business
West Country farmers will be in Westminster today to join a summit meeting about falling milk prices.
It's been called by the National Farmers' Union, which says milk producers are being forced out of business as big dairy companies cut costs.
Arla Foods UK, Robert Wiseman Dairies and Dairy Crest have all announced reductions of up to 2p per litre from August, following previous cuts in the spring.
The NFU is warning that producing a litre of milk now costs many farmers significantly more than what they are paid for it.
Vice president Adam Quinney has urged Farming Minister Jim Paice to "bang heads together" within the sector to ensure farmers are paid a fair price for their milk, and to push back on regulation that adds costs to producers.
– Adam Quinney, Vice president, National Farmers' Union
The latest round of cuts to milk prices by three major dairy processors will mean dairy farmers are making a significant loss for every litre of milk they produce.
If we don't get paid a fair price, that means less milk will be produced and in the long term the consumers will have to pay more.
The farmers' organisation is calling for farmers to be paid at least the production cost of milk and for more equitable contracts to be introduced that stop dairy farmers being exploited.
And the NFU wants to see the swift introduction of a groceries adjudicator to stamp out unfair practices in the food supply chain.
– David Corp, Somerset dairy farmer
Now the carpet's been taken from under our feet and we go back to wondering what will happen? how long is it going to be like this? is it worth continuing?
What do we do about the people who rely on us for wages and other businesses that feed us?
Robert Wiseman Dairies will now be paying 24.73p per litre of milk. The NFU says it costs farmers 30p to produce a litre of milk - that's a loss of over 5p per litre.
– Robert Wiseman Dairies
We have done everything we can to minimise the reduction in our farm gate milk price but we must now reflect the substantially lower returns from the markets which we serve.
Farmers are calling on MPs to support them by putting pressure on the Government, processors and retailers to meet their demands.
The NFU said it was expecting around 2,000 dairy farmers at the summit in Westminster today.

Basketball season is finally upon us. After last weekend's football disaster, it couldn't have come soon enough. JABear and I headed down to Haas for the basketball team's open scrimmage on Sunday to drown out the frustration of the gridiron with the optimism and excitement of some good old hoops. There is definitely a lot to be excited about.
JABear: Overall, the players were as advertised. While it previously has been speculated that Justin Cobbs would steal the starting spot from Brandon Smith, I'm not so sure of that now. Smith looked extremely comfortable with the offense, and even showed off his jumper on occasion. He also began the scrimmage with the starters, so it seems very likely that our starting five will be Smith/Gutierrez/Crabbe/Kamp/Solomon. I'm personally excited for this lineup because Cobbs coming off the bench gives our team the possibility of some unique rotations. Essentially, Cobbs can come in for Smith, Gutierrez, or Crabbe. If Monty wants to run a bigger lineup, Cobbs can play the point. If Jorge needs to sit, Cobbs can play the 2. If Crabbe needs to sit, Cobbs can play the 2 and Jorge can slide over to the 3.
Cobbs won't be the only one in the mix. Murray and Powers showed competence at their positions, and have improved enough to earn some minutes. I don't expect to see much of the freshmen this year, but it's always good to have depth. By the looks of it, we won't be abusing our starters this season.
While the backcourt seems secure, the frontcourt is going to make or break this team. Health is an issue as Harper Kamp only competed in half of the scrimmage. Harper is an essential piece of this team and was brilliant when he was on the floor. Solomon, Thurman, and Bak Bak will have to come up big for this team to live up to its hype. Personally, I'm optimistic, as the frontcourt showed promise and potential throughout the scrimmage. After the jump, let's look at individual player evaluations.
Justin Cobbs: There's a lot to be excited about here. Cobbs is extremely quick, strong, assertive, and can be an absolute pest on defense. He dished out nine assists, a few of which rightfully inspired some "oohs" and "ahs" from the impressed crowd in attendance. He appears to have a pretty good mid-range game and can get to the basket at will. It does appear that, as of now, he will be coming off the bench, as Smith was playing with the starters for the majority of the practice, but he'll undoubtedly be getting major minutes to spell Smith, Jorge, and Crabbe.
Jorge Gutierrez: What can I say that you guys don't know already? He's tough. He's smart. He's gritty. He exhibits maximum effort all the time, in any situation. Jorge is the heart and soul of the team and nobody wants to see this guy defending them (including his own teammates in practice).
Richard Solomon: Solomon looks poised for a breakout season. He is visibly stronger and more confident than he was last season, displaying a low-post game with a nice baby hook that was absent last year. Solo also displayed some quick hands and good anticipation with a couple of nice steals. Richard has improved greatly, a much needed development after the loss of MSF.
Alex Rossi: Rossi was absent from the open scrimmage/practice.
Brandon Smith: Man, has Smith improved since his freshman season. He is clearly extremely comfortable leading this team and constantly exhibits terrific leadership and decision-making skills. His jump shot looks good, his defense looks good, and he looks more assertive than he was last season. It also appears as though he'll be starting if the lineups in this practice were any indication.
Raffi Chalian: Chalian, expectedly, didn't wow anybody with any particular attribute, but he seemed to hold his own against the more experienced Cobbs and Smith during the scrimmage. He is very generously listed at 5'11" (he was clearly an inch or so shorter than Smith) but he is fairly strong and quick. Chalian seemed extremely hesitant most of the time, but he did hit one uncontested three. I wouldn't be surprised to see Chalian getting some minutes by the time he is an upperclassman, but for now, he's going to be buried on bench.
Christian Behrens: Behrens looks long and athletic and his potential is evident, but he's not quite there yet. He displayed occasional flashes, but he was pretty hesitant, failed to consistently get good position in the post and was pushed around by the bigger bodies. I think he'll be a good one after a couple of seasons under Monty, but I don't view him as a major contributor this season.
Bak Bak: Oh, Bak Bak. Why must you tempt us so? The shooting star of last season's open scrimmage once again displayed a nice shooting touch during this practice. But we know how last year turned out, so I'm going to reserve my optimism for a couple of weeks.
Rob Filley: Filley didn't do much during the scrimmage and lacked assertiveness, but he has a nice looking shot and has decent size. I wouldn't be surprised to see Rob getting some minutes as a shooter off the bench by the time he's an upperclassman, but he probably won't see the court much this season.
Jeff Powers: Powers looks much like he did last season. He's big. He can shoot. He's not very quick and thus gets beat somewhat frequently on defense. He shouldn't be getting too many minutes this season, but he could come off the bench occasionally if Rossi's injury lingers.
Harper Kamp: If he stays healthy, Harper will have a very nice senior season. Kamp looked surprisingly agile and displayed his patented low-post craftiness, but was (rightfully) pulled out of the scrimmage early, as Monty seems to be approaching his potential injury situation very cautiously. Kamp wasn't nearly so cautious during the scrimmage, diving for loose balls and exhibiting the grit that we have witnessed over his Cal career. Every time he hit the floor, I found myself holding my breath. Cross your fingers and pray to Bak Bak that Harper can have the full, healthy senior season that he deserves, as he is a major key to a successful year.
Allen Crabbe: Crabbe exhibited his picture-perfect stroke on his way to a perfect game from behind the arc, hitting all five of his long range attempts. As JABear puts it, the dude is poetry in motion. He's a straight up stud and should be one of the frontrunners for Pac-12 Player of the Year.
Ricky Kreklow: Kreklow is going to be a very good player for us in 2012-2013. He seems like a very effective, vocal leader and he has a sweet stroke. Assuming Crabbe stays another year, those two will be creating major matchup issues when they're on the court at the same time.
Emerson Murray: Emerson is one dreamy dude, on and off the court. Charming the ladies in the post-practice autograph session, "E" showed his patented flashes of brilliance during the practice, displaying more confidence and assertiveness than he did last season. His jump shot looks improved and he just oozes athleticism. If he puts it together, we could have a special player on our hands eventually, but I don't think he'll be getting a large chunk of playing time this season.
Robert Thurman: As reported earlier in the summer, Thurman is definitely improved. He has always been a big body, but he's finally starting to develop some nice low-post moves and uses his body well. He's still a bit raw, particularly on the defensive end, but he should be able to provide us with some nice minutes off the bench.
David Kravish: My first thought on Kravish was that he is very skinny and will need to bulk up to really hold his own against Pac-12 level competition. Like Behrens, he was bullied a bit by the bigger bodies. That being said, the quiet freshman seems like he has a very high hoops IQ; he knows what he's doing out there, and once his body catches up to his intelligence, he can be a very special player under Monty's tutelage.
