Miami (OH) coach wants players to believe Florida is beatable
By Jason Lieser
Miami (Ohio) has been a disaster the past four years (11-38) and it's coach Mike Haywood's job to fix it.
It's unlikely Haywood will get the RedHawks back on track in Week 1, when the team visits Florida (Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, 12 p.m., ESPN) as a 35-point underdog, but he wants his players to believe they can pull an epic upset.
The contract for this game was finalized Aug. 30, 2004 and, per the Gainesville Sun, includes a $700,000 payout for Miami. Ron Zook scheduled the game against his alma mater thinking he might coach against them, but he was fired before the end of the '04 season. Miami was coming off a 13-1 season (including wins over Northwestern, Cincinnati and Louisville and an undefeated record in the Mid-American Conference) with Ben Roethlisberger at quarterback. A man named George W. Bush was president, and Conan O'Brien still had a show on NBC.
A lot has changed in the six years since this game was added to the 2010 schedule. The Gators have two national titles in the past four seasons and Urban Meyer has won 26 of his past 28 games.
"At the time that game was scheduled, Miami was looked at as a team that was headed in the same direction as Boise St.," Haywood said. "They were accepting all comers at that time. Unfortunately, things changed and took a different course. We're trying to build it back to where it was at that time."
Haywood is familiar with Meyer and Florida quarterback John Brantley.
Meyer talked to Haywood about a position on his staff at one point, but it was not an ideal fit for Haywood and never materialized.
As Notre Dame's offensive coordinator, Haywood scouted Brantley, but said the Irish never had a real chance at signing him.
He had a hard time scouting Brantley for the upcoming game, but fortunately he had some film because SUN Sports broadcast Florida's spring game on tape delay. Haywood re-watched that tape earlier this month.
"He's an extremely athletic guy with a strong arm," he said of Brantley. "He does a nice job understanding coverages. He really does a nice job throwing the deep ball. Receivers have a lot of confidence in him."
At the SEC spring meeting in Destin, Tennessee coach Derek Dooley talked about what was like playing these types of games when he was at Louisiana Tech. He was infuriated after a game at LSU in which he felt like his players were in awe of the Tigers.
Haywood said he is concerned about a similar issue with his team and knows he will have to work hard to convince the RedHawks they have a chance to win.
"These young players hear everything about The Swamp and how loud it is and the heat index," Haywood said. "You really have to tell them, 'They're outstanding, but they have to get dressed and play this game the same way you do.' You have to sell them on it.
"They believe they can compete, but I don't think they always believe they can win it. We're trying to build the confidence that you always believe you can win. We want to go in there and play hard and finish plays. We want to become a dangerous football team."
Sidenote: Miami is nicknamed the "Cradle of Coaches," for a reason. Look at some of the head coaches who were with the RedHawks at one point: Paul Brown, Woody Hayes, Bill Arnsparger, Bo Schembechler, Jim Tressel, Randy Walker, John Harbaugh, Sean Payton.
Sidenote II: Check out some of these articles from the Hamilton Journal News for more information on Miami:

It's mid-December, winter has arrived, and the holiday season is well underway.
I have more lists going than usual and it occurs to me that in our enthusiasm to enjoy the season to the fullest, we sometimes cram too many activities into too short a time. There's always something to do or somewhere to go. It doesn't take long for us to get bogged down.
So what does "bogged down" mean?
Webster's New World Dictionary defines a bog as "an area of wet, spongy ground characterized by decaying mosses that form peat; a small marsh or swamp." It follows then that "bogged down" refers to being stuck in this spongy ground, unable to make any progress.
Not all bogs bring to mind an image of dark, mucky places. Take a cranberry bog for instance. Until very recently, I never gave much thought to cranberries. I've seen the commercials on television with the guys in waders surrounded by floating cranberries, and figured they grew underwater. Not so.
Cranberries are native to America and are grown commercially in Massachusetts, Wisconsin, New Jersey, Washington, Oregon and Maine, as well as some Canadian provinces, and Chile. Cranberry bogs are soft, marshy grounds, frequently near wetlands, consisting of alternating layers of sand and organic matter.
The low-growing cranberry plant puts out long, woody runners. Short upright branches grow from these runners, and the fruit grows on the uprights. There is a 16-month cycle from bud set to harvest time.
Water is even more essential in the production of cranberries than in other crops because it is not just for irrigation. Sprinkler systems are used to protect the berries from spring and fall frosts that can damage the buds or berries, as well keeping the berries cool when summer temperatures soar.

RISMEDIA, March 29, 2011—If you're serious about shooting video, we trust you're familiar with using a tripod. It provides the rock solid stability that sets you apart from the hand held amateurs—unless you're after that "Blair Witch" effect.
Tripods are normally easy to use, but certain key moves—like panning from side to side—can present special challenges. Getting a consistent speed and smoothness in your pan can be difficult, especially if it lasts for more than a few seconds.
That's why you might want to consider as motorized tripod head. It attaches directly to the tripod just like a camera, and your camera attaches to the device as it would to the tripod. Then, you can control the smoothness and speed of your pan, r tilt, with precision. No more herky-jerky movements or uneven speeds. And best of all, these devices are usually battery operated and relatively inexpensive.
Achieving a slow smooth pan can be especially important when shooting Internet video, which often gets messy when the entire scene is changing too rapidly. A motorized tripod head gives you complete control, and can do away with the frustration and wasted time you may experience without one.

Fertility drugs are medications that are used to influence ovulation. Some fertility medications strength or trigger ovulation, while others suppress ovulation. (I know -- sounds backwards. I'll explain more below.) Fertility drugs can also be used in men to treat male factor infertility, but this is less common.
Generally, fertility drugs are used to treat problems with ovulation or recurrent miscarriage. However, this is not always the case. For example, sometimes the woman does not have ovulatory problems, but the man's fertility issues require IVF treatment. In this case, fertility drugs may be used to increase the number of eggs the woman produces, in order to retrieve the eggs for IVF treatment.
Commonly Prescribed Fertility Drugs
The most commonly prescribed fertility drugs include:
Clomid, Serophene - You've probably heard of Clomid before. Clomid, or clomiphene citrate, is often the first drug tried when treating ovulatory dysfunction. The risks of side effects, like multiple pregnancy and ovulation hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), are less with Clomid, when compared to gonadotropins (FSH, hCG, and hMG).
Femera - Femera, or letrozole, isn't actually meant to be a fertility drug, but is intended to treat postmenopausal women with breast cancer. Still, Femera has been shown to be as effective as Clomid when inducing ovulation.
The drug is being used with less frequency, however, because studies show an increase in birth defects when taken during pregnancy. Doctors who use Femera for ovulation induction argue that the drug isn't taken during pregnancy when used during fertility treatments. It's taken before pregnancy has occurred. Therefore, they say it shouldn't be considered risky to the baby's health.
Follistim, Gonal-F - Follistim and Gonal-F are fertility drugs which mimic the hormone FSH in your body. They are created in a lab using recombinant DNA technology. As you may recall, FSH is the hormone which tells the oocytes in your ovaries to grow and mature. These drugs are taken via injection, which you do yourself, and may be used during IVF or IUI treatment, or with timed sexual intercourse at home.
Bravelle, Fertinex - These hormonal fertility drugs are also FSH, except instead of being artificially created in the lab, the hormone is extracted and purified from the urine of post-menopausal women. These drugs are considered less potent than FSH created using recombinant DNA technology, but they are less expensive. They are taken via injection, usually at home.
Ovidrel, Novarel, Pregnyl - These drugs are meant to mimic the hormone LH in the body. You might remember LH is the hormone that triggers ovulation. These drugs are made of hCG, which is extracted from the urine of pregnant women. The hormone hCG is similar to LH in the body. These fertility drugs are injectables, and they are often used after FSH treatment, as well as during IVF or IUI treatment.
Antagon, Cetrotide - These fertility drugs are GnRH antagonists. This means that they work against the hormones LH and FSH in the body, suppressing ovulation. This seems backwards, but these drugs are often used during IVF treatment, to prevent the eggs being ovulated and "lost" inside the body before they can be retrieved.
They may also be used during IUI treatment, or if a couple will not be able to have sex during the fertile window (an ill-timed business trip, for example). Also, they may be used to reduce the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, if estrogen levels are too high.
Lupron, Synarel, Zoladex - These fertility drugs are what are known as GnRH agonists, or gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists. They cause an initial surge in FSH and LH production, but then cause the body to stop producing FSH and LH, preventing ovulation and limiting the amount of estrogen. These drugs are usually used during IVF treatment, allowing the doctor to control ovulation with other fertility drugs (like the ones mentioned above).
Pergonal, Humegon, Repronex, Menopur - These fertility drugs are combined LH and FSH, also known as human menopausal gonadotropins (hMG). They are not used frequently, but may be used in some special cases. They are injectables.
Risks of Fertility Drugs
As with the use of any drug, risks come with fertility drugs. One risk you're no doubt familiar with is the risk of a multiple pregnancy. Multiples, either twins, triplets, or higher-order, can occur when using fertility drugs.
Another potential side effect of fertility drug use is ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, or OHSS. OHSS happens when the ovaries are overly stimulated, becoming dangerously large and filled with too much fluid. This fluid, which is released with ovulation, can lead to serious complications. OHSS is rarely life threatening, but it can be.

Treasured museum faces the axe
3:32pm Wednesday 14th January 2009 in News
A WORLD famous tourist attraction in Kingswinford is facing the axe as part of latest council cost-cutting plans.
It is believed staff at the popular Broadfield House Glass Museum have already been told the renowned Compton Drive museum, which houses one of the finest glass archives in the country, will close by April 2010.
The plan is to move the site's esteemed collection of historic pieces to Wordsley's Red House Glass Cone, but glass enthusiasts say it is "ill-thought out" and the museum closure would constitute "civic vandalism".
John Sanders, from the Friends of Broadfield House group, said: "Broadfield House Glass Museum is the most prestigious glass museum in the United Kingdom. It is world-renowned.
"It's status and reputation have been established over some 30 years.
"If the present proposals cause Broadfield House Glass Museum to cease to exist we shall be witnessing an event of civic vandalism."
He said plans have been mooted for many years to move the Broadfield collection to a proposed purpose created glass heritage centre on the Red House Glass Cone site.
But no decision - to their knowledge - was ever made.
However - the council today (Wednesday January 14) confirmed that closing Broadfield is part of this year's cost-saving budget proposal, which was approved by the cabinet on January 7.
A spokesman for Dudley Council said the plan is due to be discussed further at tonight's select committee on regeneration, culture and adult education (Wednesday January 14) taking place at Dudley Council House at 6pm - and the proposal will still have to go before the council for a final decision on March 2.
Barbara Beadman, chairman of the Friends of Broadfield House, said: "It would be very disappointing if the decision's a done deal. It's ill-thought out. It would just be a mess, an absolute mess."
For the latest developments on the story, including a round-up of the debate from the select committee, log onto stourbridgenews.co.uk tomorrow (Thursday January 15).

This is the county's heritage, I suggest the council look at reducing costs in other areas i.e. one-off wonders!!!

I've known Tracy and David for about 6 years now; I met David during our collegiate a cappella days in Cal Jazz Choir. Although I haven't seen the couple since they moved east a few years ago, it was like the good ole days when we met up at the botanical gardens at the Huntingon Library for their engagement photoshoot.
Their love (and goofiness) hasn't waned, and we had the perfect southern California afternoon in late December as we explored the different gardens.
Congrats you two, and I can't wait to photograph your wedding in July!

But this bread - my most favorite bread - isn't whole wheat. It's made using leftover whey from making cheese or yogurt. Although I'll bet you could use water or milk instead of whey if you don't have any. It's soft and absolutely perfect for toast and grilled cheese sandwiches.
Making bread from scratch may sound intimidating, but it's really very straightforward - and unless you live above a bakery, it probably takes less active baking time than it would to get in the car and go buy some from the store. Plus you know what's in it.
After moving from a hand-me-down bread maker in college, to a brand new one when I got married, to a kitchen aid mixer, I realized I could make bread with a spoon and bowl just as easily (if not more so). So even if you've never ever ever made bread before, give this a shot. You don't need any special tools.
This awesome recipe comes from Terri's Table. Mine is basically the same, but I tried to simplify the process because I'm very impatient when it comes to waiting for bread to bake. I use the cookbook Artisan Bread in Five Minutes A Day, which gives some helpful suggestions about how to streamline bread baking. I applied those here, but make sure to check out Terri's Table and look at her version of this bread, too!
Makes 1 loaf of bread, but can be easily doubled.
Printable version here
1/2 tablespoon active dry yeast
1/2 teaspoon coarse, kosher style salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 cups whey (or milk or water)
3 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour (might use more or less flour, depending on your climate)
Pour the warm whey into a bowl. It should be warm, but not really hot. If it's cold, the yeast won't activate, and if it's really hot, the yeast will be, well, killed. Add the yeast, sugar, and then the salt. You can probably add it in any order, but I prefer to add the yeast and sugar first and let it sit for just a second because the sugar makes the yeast grow while the salt keeps the growth in check.
During this time, your mixture will turn into a foamy almost bubbly mixture. While your yeast is proofing, measure out your flour. When I'm being a good, precise cook, I dump my flour into a bowl and scoop it into my measuring cups, that way the flour doesn't get too packed in. But in this recipe, I scoop-and-sweep. Just dip your measuring cup into the flour bag.
Dump 3 cups of flour into the starter and stir it with a wooden spoon.
I'm not sure why it has to be a wooden spoon, but pretty much every bread recipe I've ever used specifically calls for a wooden spoon. I don't know if the metal reacts or if the wooden spoon just seems more authentic. Anyway, stir the flour all in to the yeast.
Knead the flour for a couple of minutes. "Kneading" to me basically means to gently punch and fold the dough in on itself many times. It's kind of like therapeutic bread massage therapy. This would be a great task for a little helper in your kitchen, too.
While your bread is rising, feel free to do any household tasks that need tackling....
After an hour, pull off the towel and admire the magic of yeast:
On a clean and floured surface, dump out your dough and roll it out.
See? Rectangle-ish.
Stand in front of the short side of the rectangle and roll it up. (If you roll the long end up, it won't fit in the loaf pan.
With wet fingers, pinch the seam closed.
And put it in a greased (or sprayed) pan. Cover it and let it rise for another hour and then bake for 30 minutes at 350.
Remove and let it cool. (I almost never have the patience for this, but it does slice much more easily when it's cooler).
Give a slice to the littlest person nearby.
Bon Appétit!

Both Esporte and Clic RBS quoted Machida's wife Fabyola, who said that the former UFC light-heavyweight champion had decided against facing Evans with less than four weeks to prepare.
Unless Machida changes his mind, he'll be the second high-profile fighter to turn down the main event bout. Tito Ortiz also rejected a chance to step in for the injured Phil Davis.
Either fight would have been a rematch of a previous bout.
Ortiz and Evans fought at UFC 73 in July 2007, with the pair fighting to a draw. At the time, it was Evans' first step up to top-level competition. By the time he and Machida fought at UFC 98, he was the newly crowned champion. But Machida ended his reign before a successful title defense, knocking him out in the second round.
Because of his previous win over Machida, it was thought that he would be more likely to accept the fight, but it turns out that time worked against the possibility.
"He decided he would not be able to prepare in just three weeks," his wife Fabyola told Esporte. "It was very short notice and has a number of factors that need to be analyzed. So he decided he will not fight."
With that, the hunt for a replacement continues.

Julius Randle's recent injury has kept him off the court, but it hasn't kept a ton of college coaches keeping in touch and calling with words of encouragement.
John Calipari spoke with Randle recently and told the top 2013 recruit that he wants him at Kentucky if he can play basketball or not.
I had a really good talk with Coach (John) Calipari since my injury too. He's funny. He told me that worst-case scenario, if I never play again, I could still come to Kentucky on scholarship and after I graduate I'd be his assistant. The crazy thing is that I know he's serious about that. It just showed me how much he really cared about me and my future. That meant a lot to me.
Jerry Meyer of 24/7 Sports is reporting that Julius Randle will visit Kansas on Feb 16th for their game with Texas.

A Paula Deen Thanksgiving
The Birth of a Cook
"I bet I'm the only one here who remembers the first Thanksgiving dinner Paula cooked!" says Peggy. "It was November 1970. She was in her kitchen and I was in mine. Every few minutes she'd call me wantin' to know how to start her Butterball turkey. I'd be trying to do my own dinner and teach her how to do hers at the same time. Finally, her Uncle George called out, 'Peggy, for God's sakes, tell Paula to get offa that damn phone or I'll never have my turkey dinner.'
"I'm not surprised by the fame that's happened to Paula," continues Peggy. "The way I saw her improvise I knew she'd make it. Once, when she'd just opened her first restaurant, The Lady, in 1991, she had a customer waiting for a sandwich. She was missing so much in that place -- didn't even have a spatula to apply the mayonnaise. Well, Paula, she just washed her hands real good, reached down two fingers into that gallon jug o' mayonnaise, brought them up and slathered the stuff on the bread. I knew then that no lack of a spatula or anything else could stop my Paula."
"Success got me way too late in life to change me," says Paula. "Some things in life -- fame, money -- they are gone just like that. But the love of family -- that never fades away. I'm very aware that one mistake and it could all be over. But I also think that mistakes can turn into blessings, which turn us into the people we are. In the end, if I wake up on the right side of the dirt, there's always time to make it better."

Students at South Central got a pleasant surprise at their winter assembly.After
the school announcements and student awards were handed out, each
student got a brand new sweatshirt. School administrators say the
hoodies are more than just a piece of clothing, they're a symbol that
the school cares about every student and they are not alone. "It
was, awesome. I don't know other words to use. It was a dream come
true. I've been, you know, this is been a secret for quite a while. And
being able to watch it come full circle and just my heart is so happy,"
says Justina Monroe, South Central High School. Justina is a
2002 grad, and loves her fellow classmates, she worked with donors to
raise more than $3,000 to buy the sweatshirts.

I'm sure Michigan players are focused on the *ahem* game.
Interesting perspective from a Virginia Tech player living the dream of any other 18-22 year old at a football factory in the days leading up to the Sugar Bowl... "Across the street from our digs is a 115,000-square-foot casino. Six blocks northwest of our hotel is the most decadent stretch of pavement known to man; trust me, men know it all too well. Bourbon Street boasts 10 gentlemen's clubs along its eight blocks. I'm not saying our players have succumbed -- I'm simply shedding light on the gravity of our temptations. And yet we're giving 18- to 22-year-old testosterone factories $64.39 per day to spend as they wish? Have we lost our minds?"

This is my 3rd purchase from Blinds Galore. Good customer service, easy on-line ordering and great quality for the price. I ordered these for a vacation home in the interest of saving some money. The quality was equal to the Hunter Douglas woven blinds we have in our primary residence at a much better price point. The blinds look great and operate easily. Installation was a bit tricky and the screws that came with the blind were not what we needed to install in our particular application but other than that great purchase and wholly satisfied.

The last evening of the Linden team camp started with some confusion but everything worked out in the end.
My games were the early ones, 5 and 6 PM. Naturally the New Jersey Turnpike refused to cooperate so I was about three minutes late for game one. Partner Fred Gaines tipped it off and got the teams, St. Pat's and Linden (two elite programs), off and running.
Working the first quarter when assignor Dennis Allocco shows. He wonders if I got there early and covered for him. I said that my email said the assignment on Thursday was at Linden High School. Turns out the email came through literally scrambling tonight's assignments and courts (thanks AO'Hell'). Dennis said go to the Rec Center, Linden Assistant Marty Luc confirmed I should be there. Got in the car and drove the mile or so to the center on John Street. Get there and two officials are already working. The gentleman on the scorer's table calls Marty and at the half we sort things out. I will work the second half of game one and all game two and will be finished. One official stays with me and the other is off until 7 pm and the third set of games.
Everything settled we get into a game tied at 20 at halftime. St. Pat's B team is facing East Orange. It is a competitive game but East Orange is more active on the glass . That is a big factor in their 38-34 victory.
Game two is the full (worked) contest:
St. Joe's(Metuchen) 58 Ridge 44
Expected a close one and was not disappointed. The score is deceptive as a dominant fourth quarter allowed St.Joe's to pull away. Ridge has been strong in New Jersey circles the past few seasons. Some of those better players are graduated but there is talent on hand and like St.Joe's, they do a nice job of playing together. Both teams move the ball well and can hit the perimeter shot. The difference is St.Joe's had the effective inside game which made a huge difference. Number 25 of St.Joe's is having another excellent night. He is about 6-7, very athletic, can put the ball on the deck and has a great basketball IQ. One St.Joe's assistant said he is a junior with a good amount of mid-major attention. St.Joseph's of the A-10 however, is particularly interested.
At the buzzer that is it for my assignment. A rewarding week overall. A slight bit of confusion early but staging four games a night at four different sites from Monday through Thursday is not easy. The Linden staff did a great job and were very gracious hosts for the event.
The teams and coaches would love to win. More important, the week gave them a chance to see where their teams are and what needs to be addressed and corrected. For us as officials, the same points can be said and emphasized.

Alex Hall has just written a front page article about "Athletics Nation Best of 2013 Awards". I read that as a (very fun) awards post about the best stuff that happened on AN during 2013, as did the first two posters.
It was not the case, though. Instead, Alex was posting about the AN Moderators/Front Page staff's awards for the best of the A's in various categories. As good as it was, the title led to a brainstorm:
What if we did a "Best of AN 2013 Award"?
That is, we select categories to nominate posters on AN whose posts/comments are the best in each category, and then have votes as to who wins each category.
I propose a mix of sincere and tongue-in-cheek categories, with a 3-part round robin. First, these are my proposals for categories. You can rec them- I would advise against flagging them, since enough flags leads to certain automatic problems that might lead to the whole post going dark. Those that receive NO rec's might STILL be in the final poll, because I am writing this, and if I like them, they might still get posted. You can also add your own categories, and those that get most rec'd will definitely be in the final poll:
- "Best Front Page Writer"
- "Best Fanpost of the Year"
- "Most Relentlessly Negative While Not Getting Banned (Mad fly hunnies/Kiwi division)"
- "Worst Puns/Jokes"
- "QOTY, by month"?
- "Most Long-winded"
- "Best Rosterbator"
- "Best Storyteller Commenter"
- "Most Argumentative About Stuff That Actually Matters"
- "Most Likely To Get Into a Long Digression That Ends Up On The Right Side Of The Page"
- "Most Erudite and Worldly (or Knowledgeable About Things Other Than Baseball)"
- "Most Knowledgeable About Sabermetrics"
- "Best Game Threader"
- "Best Game Thread Manager"
- "Best Lounge Lizard"
- "Most likely to REC a FUCK THE GIANTS! comment."
Once you folks give me feedback on this we'll have a post listing the categories and asking AN'ers to make nominations. I'll construct it like I think would work best. That is, I'll list the categories, and then for each category, I'll start a topic thread: "Best Game Threader", and people can respond. The most rec's for a response leads to that (top 5, likely) AN'ers inclusion on the final post, which will consist of a series of votes.
What do you think? I just want to keep it light and fun, not mean!
Update, Wed. 9 a.m.: Just a heads up. I have a very busy day today so I won't be able to post the poll until at least tomorrow, most likely. Rec and nominate!

Look, I understand that trading Jose Reyes should NOT be the first, or second, or third option (for the health of us fans, at least).
But the idea gets floated around in the mainstream media so much that it isn't a ludicrous idea that Reyes will indeed be traded.
If Reyes is traded, the front office needs to get a fair market deal or better. First of all, we'd have to analyze a few things.
1. The Baseline
Assuming we keep Jose Reyes and let him go at the end of the season for two first-round draft picks, we stand to gain at least a little bit of value (although not as much as the loss of Reyes would cost the Mets).
The 2011 draft is particularly deep. However, sadly, the average (15th) pick that we would receive as compensation for Reyes would be worth about 2.38 WAR over the first six years of his career. The sandwich pick would be worth approximately 1.42 WAR over the first six years of his career. This is quite frankly an unacceptable return for Jose. It would be better to sign Reyes, pay him fair market value, and keep fans in the seats. If we're going to trade Reyes for anything, it must be prospects in accordance with Reyes's status as an elite shortstop.
2. The Teams
Pretty much every contender save the Rockies, Marlins, and (debatably) the Phillies would experience a significant upgrade playing Reyes at shortstop. However, we should focus on only the contenders with needs. These would be the Giants (current shortstop, Miguel Tejada/Mike Fontenot, -0.5 WAR/???), Kansas City (current shortstop, Alcides Escobar, 0.0 WAR), Cardinals (current shortstop, Ryan Theriot, 0.2 WAR), and Brewers (current "shortstop", Yuniesky Betancourt (-0.1 WAR). Currently, Jose Reyes leads all major league shortstops in WAR with 1.8. Extrapolating this performance over the entire season, Reyes would be worth another 6.76 wins over the rest of the year. Reyes is not likely to maintain this level of performance, but another 4-5 wins for Reyes is about what we should expect. For a team such as the San Francisco Giants, a boost of 4-5 wins (or more, based on the fact that the Giants are currently playing below-replacement level players at shortstop) would significantly increase their chance of making the playoffs, which would be worth an additional $28 million or more in revenue (numbers taken from Baseball Beyond The Numbers). Reyes would also sell additional tickets. Perhaps most importantly, these wins are going to be very hard to find at any other position besides shortstop for San Francisco and the Mets are the only team with a shortstop of Reyes' caliber potentially on the trading block. Given that Reyes has already been worth $8.1 million dollars, the 2/3 of a season that Reyes provides could have a market value of $35 million or more to the Giants. With this in mind, let's see what the Giants could possibly offer the Mets.
At the moment, the likely key piece in any Reyes deal would be Zach Wheeler, a hard-throwing 20 year old starter with three plus pitches and a good ground-ball ratio. The average top pitching prospect is worth around $14 million according to evaluations on minorleagueball.com. The Giants would have to offer significantly more than Wheeler to acquire Reyes, even for 2/3 of a season. The other interesting piece that the Giants have is shortstop Ehire Adrianza, who fields well but is pretty punchless at the plate - think Ruben Tejada with a better glove and a few more walks, or Chin-Lung Hu with a slightly better bat. He's probably a $2 million dollar piece at best, even if you like the bat more than most. The Giants don't have enough to offer, unless they offer Brandon Belt in some sort of three-way deal (the Mets already have a pretty decent first baseman).
We then move on to the Cardinals. The Cardinals would experience a similar boost in playoff probability to the Giants upon acquiring Reyes. However, they too have somewhat limited options. Their best hitting prospect, Zack Cox, plays third base and is literally untradeable as he was a 2010 draftee. Shelby Miller has been deemed practically untouchable by the Cardinals organization, but he'd be the one piece that would provide a suitable return for Reyes. Even if you value Miller at $20 million, a quite generous evaluation, the Cardinals would have to throw literally every pitcher in their organization not drafted in 2010 to provide enough value for Reyes. If the Mets are able to get Miller and 3 other mid-tier prospects, a deal should definitely be considered, especially considering that they can potentially resign Reyes after the 2011 season. Otherwise, the Cardinals do not look like the best option.
The Brewers are already depleted. Nothing they'd have to offer would interest the Mets.
This leaves the Royals. The Royals are an incredibly unlikely contender, but in the AL Central, the flukey Indians are currently on top and the rest of the division appears to be stinking up the joint. Also, unlike the rest of the teams that would be interested in an elite shortstop, the Royals have prospects. And a lot of them. Mike Moustakas and Eric Hosmer aren't as useful to the Mets and likely untouchable. However, with the tremendous Jeff "Wonderboy" Francouer in right field, the converted catcher Wil Myers appears to be the most expendable of the top three KC hitting prospects. Honestly, if the Mets could get Myers and one mid-tier prospects (Johnny Giavotella, Tim Melville... Chris Dwyer would be somewhat of a reach) for Reyes, they should pull the trigger. The Royals would be a good destination for Reyes for two reasons - one, the Royals are unlikely to resign Reyes after the season because of financial issues, and two - if the Royals are going to make any sort of run in 2011, Reyes would be a huge addition to them. Yes, the Royals are an extremely unlikely destination for Reyes, but they're the only ones with the chips to play the Reyes sweepstakes (again, barring a bizarre Belt deal). Also, Dayton Moore is stupid. Try to convince Moore that Reyes played for the Braves and he might throw up Moustakas, Myers, Danny Duffy, John Lamb, and Kaufmann Stadium, because none of them ever played for Atlanta.
3. Conclusion
Do not deal Reyes unless you can get an uberprospect in return. However, in these cases, 2/3 of a season of Reyes isn't quite as valuable as a player who has a high probability of being a key player in 2012 and beyond. Most teams besides the Cardinals and Royals do not have this kind of player. In the Cardinals case, they would have to give up more than this player, Shelby Miller, to reach the fair market value for Reyes. In the unlikely event that the Royals are buyers, they have more than enough players to package for Jose Reyes.
A sadder conclusion: Reyes' market value is also depressed because all the teams that are in dire need of a shortstop also have bad farm systems.

Editor's note: This fall some changes are coming to the HMNS Hall of Ancient Egypt. Some artifacts will leave and others are coming in on new loans. As we prepare for this, NYU third-year art conservation student Kate Brugioni will take us through the restoration process for ancient artifacts.
When you walk around the Hall of Ancient Egypt, you see some pretty old stuff — actually some really old stuff. We're talking thousands of years here, folks. But have you ever wondered how everything stays in top condition?
Well that's my job (rather, summer internship, but it will be my job soon)!
I'm Kate Brugioni, rising third-year art conservation student at the Conservation Center, Institute of Fine Arts at NYU. My education combines a study of art history, archaeology, museology and science. After completing this rigorous four-year program, I will graduate with a Master's degree in Art History and an Advanced Certificate in Conservation.
As a student with a particular interest in painted wood surfaces, I am excited to be treating the Carlos Museum's polychrome-wood coffin lid, dated to the 22nd–24th dynasties of Ancient Egypt (943–720 BCE). More than 500 hours of documentation, study, and treatment will be completed over the course of this project, and I would like to share something of the sense of excitement and discovery this opportunity has brought me.
One of the most striking features of this anthropoid coffin lid is the ancient wood, largely left uncovered to showcase its fine texture; the painted wsh ("broad") collar; and offertory inscription down the center. Of special interest are the features original to the coffin construction, such as dowels, mortise and tenon structures, an ochre-colored preparation layer and painted decoration. Over the course of treatment, these will be carefully documented, cleaned and stabilized.
Although the arid Egyptian climate preserved much of the wood substrate, diffuse fungal deterioration, abrasion, and flaking has affected the structure and appearance of the coffin lid. Additionally, a number of invasive "restoration" campaigns has damaged the ancient surface and structure.
The important second step of this project will be to locate and characterize these restoration materials, and deciding how they could be best reversed, where appropriate.
Thank you for reading, and please stay tuned to this blog for up-to-date information about our findings over the course of treatment.
Oh, and one more thing! I would like to thank the Houston Museum of Natural Science for so generously supporting my summer internship at the Parsons Conservation Laboratory at the Michael C. Carlos Museum at Emory University, where I am preparing an ancient Egyptian coffin lid for long-term loan to the Hall of Ancient Egypt at HMNS.

A brother in Christ forwarded this letter he'd just sent to Pastor Kevin DeYoung responding to DeYoung's review of Rob Bell's recent book attacking the Biblical doctrine of Hell. It was an encouragment to me and the brother gave me permission to post in here for your encouragment, also. As far as I know, Pastor DeYoung has not responded. (TB)
* * *
Dear Pastor DeYoung,
I just read your excellent review, "God Is Still Holy and What You Learned in Sunday School Is Still True: A Review of Love Wins by Rob Bell". I hadn't read Bell before, but I recently read his Hell chapter and was shocked at how bad it was--not just in its theology, but, as you point out, its crude and sophistical use of Bible passages...
On this, to change the subject somewhat, I wonder if he actually believes in an afterlife at all, or even in God. He really does sound like a Unitarian pastor who thinks religion is a set of nice stories, all fictional but having literature's insights into human life (so contradictions are beside the point). People make their own hells or heavens, all purely natural, and eternal life is just a metaphor for the eternity of the present moment. God is a useful fiction, and we shouldn't disturb each other's fictions unless they cause people to behave badly, but there is never any actual supernatural intervention. And if somebody's stories cause them to start doing things that don't have useful consequences in this life--if they start fasting too much, or feeling too guilty, or making real-world decisions based on God's existence--then those are bad stories. Jesus is a good story too, because it is a story of love and sacrifice, and Jesus has saved many people by being the protagonist in a story that has caused such good. But not only is there is no substitutionary atonement, it does not even matter whether Jesus really existed or not--it is the story that matters, not any facts that might underlie the story.
I suspect that this is what Bell really believes. It is no worse and no better than what many liberal Christians and "nice" atheists believe. The only reason we get excited is that some people don't seem to realize that just because someone calls himself an evangelical Christian he must believe in God.
In His service,
you say "It is good to be charitable to people up to a certain point"- I think the issue with Bell is not that we shouldn't be charitable toward him, we should practice charity towards the most vile Atheist. What we shouldn't do is not call a spade a spade because we are dealing with a "Christian" brother. The remedy is not to be uncharitable, but to be charitable while pointing out that this man is an apostate, a false teacher, and a mortal danger to his flock.
"No doubt, Rob Bell writes as a pastor who wants to care for people struggling with the doctrine of hell."
This is a particular problem I have with some of the well-known reformed men of today. They will condemn the doctrine, but not the man. DeYoung's above quote causes readers to see Rob Bell as a misled pastor who is geniune in his struggle to do what's right for his congregation, rather than "...false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light"
It seems a bit unfair to pick at 2 sentences in a post that is otherwise very helpful to the body of Christ as a whole. Does it serve the Church best to critique those who are on our side on public forums?
Dear Aaron,
For the reasons the letter writer outlined, I think he's right to lead Pastor DeYoung to greater zeal. We all need such prods to be faithful in our evil age. Think of the Apostle Paul asking, regularly, for prayers for greater boldness. If he needed it, we hugely more so.
And let me add that such tips of the hat to civility were not marks of the ministry of the Apostle Paul, either. So really, our letter writer is simply exhorting us not to be nicer than the Apostle Paul or Calvin or Luther or Jeremiah in our treatment of those enemies of God who pursue their wickedness under cover of the pastorate.
I guess my concern is more that posting such thing for all to read will cause readers to doubt Mr. DeYoung's character, intent, or motive. I could certainly be wrong. I'm a whole lot younger in the faith so I won't quarrel over it. I think you could make the same point though to the average reader without pointing to DeYoung's post.
A wonderful insight from a man who admits that he did not read Rob Bell's book, and almost certainly has read very little of what Kevin DeYoung has written. The man seems to be unaware of either Bell's book or the ensuing response, but is quite willing to lecture Pastor DeYoung about what Pastor DeYoung should have written. I suggest that it might be a good idea to follow Kevin's blog. You might just learn a few things.
Look, men: here's the sentence my friend objected to after saying the review itself was "excellent."
"No doubt, Rob Bell writes as a pastor who wants to care for people struggling with the doctrine of hell."
The evaluation of this statement is the simplest of matters for anyone who's simply watched Bullhorn Guy, let alone read interviews and a chapter of the book. Going that far in sampling arsenic shows amazing discipline, in my book.
The quoted statement is bad and needed to be corrected. But beyond the simple correction, the points my friend makes along the way are invaluable for those of us called to preach the Gospel to this effeminate age. I'm grateful for my friend's wise counsel provided so lovingly to Pastor DeYoung and I trust we all learned from his wisdom.
Bob, if I were Pastor DeYoung I would be grateful for someone taking such careful note of what I had said and prodding me where I was weak. I can count on one hand the number of times I've had that since I left home 18 years ago, and it's just those life-giving rebukes that can change your trajectory at a critical moment.
"Better is open rebuke than hidden love."
One nice thing about my field of economics is that the custom in comments in seminar presentations is to skip all the polite stuff about "what an important contribution the paper is" and go straight to how to inch it closer to perfection. Whether that's the right thing to do does depend on local custom, but I wish we more often could trust that we actually do love each other and go straight to the suggestions for improvement.
Of course, Aaron is right that the best can be the enemy of the good, so we have to gauge whether the writer is easily discouraged, but it's equally true that the good is the enemy of the best.
p.s. The frequent criticisms of Tim Keller and his Manhattan church on this blog are perhaps an on-point example of constructive criticism. I, at least (and perhaps the Bayly brothers would agree) think Tim Keller is a good preacher. But he has plenty of people telling him that already, and he really does need huge improvement in certain areas. Criticism on these points won't make him shut down his church, and it doesn't even imply that he isn't good in other respects, but it might make him improve, and that's important enough to be worth stating things bluntly and publicly.
>> Of course, Aaron is right that the best can be the enemy of the good, so we have to gauge whether the writer is easily discouraged, but it's equally true that the good is the enemy of the best.
Also, it's not just about the person who wrote or spoke. Everyone wants to focus only on him and how this criticism might affect his feelings. But we deal with issues of truth, and faith, of heaven and hell. If I misspeak and I have any love for my hearers, I am the first to desire correction -- for their sakes!
Nobody thinks of the sheep. Nobody thinks of the babies. Lord, teach us to love!

This just in: Salma Hayek has plans to develop her own beauty line. Here's what she told WWD at a recent fête:
"I am trying to develop a line with a drugstore. I have been doing research for two or three years. My approach is how we can get the essence of the really expensive [products] for everyone."
Will it give us her trademark sultry eyes and full lips too? We can only dream.
P.S. Does it look like Ms. Hayek is wearing only a bra under her jacket? Hmmm. Maybe it's because I was just watching a re-run of that Seinfeld episode where the woman wears a bra as a top. No? Carry on.

(01/07/14) - Already Tuesday night, dozens upon dozens of school districts in Mid-Michigan are closed Wednesday because of this brutal weather.
There are a lot of factors that school leaders have to consider before canceling class.
The roads, blowing snow and wind chill all play a very important role when it comes to canceling school.
"It's real cold, it's like dangerous. That's why my hands keep freezing," said Kiante Smith.
"It's dangerous on our children, especially the kids that have to walk to school," said Erma Smith, a parent.
The dangerously cold weather means an extended winter break for Mid-Michigan kids.
"I don't want to go so school, so yeah, I'm pretty excited about that," said Dresheiontey Smith.
"Kind of sad because I was looking forward to school," Kiante said.
When districts decide to close because of dangerous temps, it's based on a scale from the CDC.
The scale not only considers the temperature, but wind chill.
These are the same conditions that a child would have to stand in at the bus stop or walk to school in.
"I think it was a good suggestion for them not to go to school but then they going to be missing out on school also, but what's important, they life," Erma said.
Getting a bus from one point to the next is something else that districts have to worry about in the brutal temps.
"Will the bus start? Most buses are diesel and at very low temperatures, the fuel gels up and makes it unable for the bus to start," said Jerry Johnson of The GISD.
Road conditions also play a factor. Paved roads versus a dirt road can have a different impact on the buses. It's a risk districts aren't willing to take.
School districts also take recommendations from the Genesee County Road Commission about when it's best to use salt.
If the temperature is too cold, the salt doesn't help melt ice.

Source: bought it used
Price Paid: $150
Very solid and comfortable for me and my little one! Super adjustable to get the right fit, and plenty of storage space.
- Comfort
- Sunshade
This is a really solid all-around child carrier. My toddler has really taken to this ride, and enjoys being on the trail. So much so that regular naps are not uncommon when she needs to in the pack.
I'm a taller guy (6'5") and I had seen somewhere that there may be challenges, but this still has a really good fit. There is an adjust for varying sizes, and accomdates me well.
This pack has a very stable feel when putting the child in, lifting up, and also putting down. Minimal wobble.
There are plenty of pockets for storage, and come in all sizes. Some pockets the older a ones can probably get to themselves without assistance (on the side, without zippers). The hydration area works well, and can hold a larger resovoir; but it is a little clunky getting it in and set up (a nit-pick). But the smaller pocket on the hip belt are great for snacks, and it comes w a rear view mirror on the other side that comes in really handy.
Overall- highly recommended.
We were initially hesitant to purchase this pack only…
Design: framed backpack
Number of Pockets: 2
Max. Load Carried: 45 lbs
Height of Owner: 6'1" and 5'7"
Price Paid: 222 Canadian
We were initially hesitant to purchase this pack only because it is relatively new to NA (say compared to the Kelty) and there were not a lot of reviews on it. However, it has been around Europe for a long time and we did manage to access the reviews (in German!). We have yet to take this pack on an extended trip and we will add to this review when we do.
So far we've taken short hikes (up to 2.5 hours). Our daughter is unfortunately too small to fit into this pack even though she can hold herself up well (she is currently 4 months old). The straps just remain too loose on her. The manufacturer recommends the child be able to sit on their own before using this product. Our daughter should probably fit in another month or so.
We have been hiking with another child in it -- who is 3 years old. We found it very comfortable even on uneven terrain/off trail (for example rock hopping through streams). The child loved it and had no complaints (she definitely would have complained if she would have had to hike the mountain herself!).
Adjustments are easy and there is a great compartment under the seat. We love the sun shield that is built in -- it can fold right out of the way if needed, but does not obscure the child's view even when fully up. We also have the rain cover which is great when the weather demands more protection. The child still has a reasonable view with the rain cover on. The pack is well built and the weight is very reasonable for the amount of support the pack gives.
We got this carrier for an amazing price ($222 Canadian at Mountain Equipment Coop) which is in fact cheaper than what we could find for this pack on the web in North America or in Europe! We plan on taking more extensive trips and hikes soon especially when we can put our own daughter into it!

It is one of the first Cuban forms to include a second improvised section, the montuno, for vocal and instrumental solos with rhythmic backing. Son began in the rural Oriente province in the late 19th century, was brought to Havana in the early 1900s and spread through the working class, incorporating African-derived elements such as rumba and Spanish-descended such as the guajira, by the '20s appealing to Cubans at all levels. It spread to Puerto Rico in the '30s, whence migration took it to the USA (though by then it was a ballroom fad which Americans called the rumba or rhumba). From the mid-'20s to the beginning of the '40s, three bands represented the development of son in Cuba: Septeto Habanero, Ignacio Piñeiro's Septeto Nacional and the conjunto of Arsenio Rodríguez (1911-1970). By the early '40s Arsenio modified son montuno from the old rural form into a newer style. Guajira is a Spanish-Cuban country music form close to the son montuno performed by guajiros (peasants) with lyrics that often deal with rural nostalgia or patriotic topics. Typical instrumentation includes guitar, tres and percussion. Three Cuban singers who helped popularise guajira are Cheo Marquetti (1909-1967), Guillermo Portabales (1911-1970), known for his elegant guajira de salón style, and Celina González. A notable modern interpreter of the genre is Henry Fiol. Guaracha is a lively musical genre with racy, topical and satirical lyrics said to have originated in 18th century Havana brothels. As with the son montuno, it acquired a second section for improvisation. After falling from favour, the guaracha experienced a revival from the '30s and became a regular element of the salsa repertoire. One of the genre's greatest exponents was Celia Cruz (1925-2003), hailed as "Guarachera de Cuba". - John Child
