Call-up for Raheem Sterling highlights Roy Hodgson's devalued England resources
England turn to untested youngsters as result of home talent being squeezed out of top flight
Sam Wallace
Sam Wallace is Football Correspondent for The Independent.
Tuesday 11 September 2012
The statistics have told us that it has been the case for a long time now, but it took the call-up to the England team of a 17-year-old kid with just seven games' experience at Liverpool to remind us that the pool of talent available to the manager of the national team is shrinking by the season.
It is not Raheem Sterling's fault that he has been fast-tracked from the England Under-19s, for whom he played against Germany on Thursday night, to a World Cup qualifier tonight against Ukraine in the space of four days. He is undoubtedly a very promising talent, and his former teachers and class-mates at the Copland Community School on Wembley High Road, less than a mile away from the stadium, will be very proud of how far the former Queen's Park Rangers academy boy has come.
By comparison, when Steven Gerrard, tonight's captain, made his debut against Ukraine in May 2000 he had played 44 games for Liverpool's first team and turned 20 the day before the match. At the England team hotel, he was, as he recalled yesterday, presented with a cake before having "my room trashed" by, he suspected, Steve McManaman and Robbie Fowler.
The Premier League and the landscape of English football has changed dramatically since then. Yes, there is still a strong core of English footballers who are first choice for their Premier League teams. Yes, there is an injury and illness crisis this week that has left Roy Hodgson without 12 players whom he would have expected to select. The Under-21s played last night in Chesterfield which complicated matters further.
Nevertheless, the statistics are impossible to ignore. On the first weekend of the Premier League this season, of the 272 players who either started or made substitutes' appearances, only 93 were eligible to play for England and only 33 of them were playing for teams who finished in the top 10 last season. Among that 33 were players such as Paul Scholes and Jamie Carragher who have ruled themselves out of playing for England.
In the most recent weekend of Premier League games, and including the Chelsea team that played in the European Super Cup the preceding Friday, only 66 of the 209 players – 31.5 per cent – who started matches were eligible for England. In Spain that equivalent percentage for Spanish players on the same weekend was 64.3 per cent; in France 62.7 per cent; Italy 52.1 per cent and Germany 45 per cent.
Hodgson said that the deficit of English players in the Premier League was a fact of life that the national team manager simply had to live with. "Would I prefer to have a reverse of that statistic, with 66 per cent of players being English? Of course I would. But that's not going to happen. The Premier League is a fantastic league, but it's a league that embraces all the top European players. We have to accept that.
"One of the other facts we can't deny is the top clubs know where the best talent is, and often go out and buy that top talent. That top [English] talent, at a young age, finds it difficult to break into the team because of the established European talent in front of them. There'll be occasions when I select people and you say they're only reserves at United, Arsenal, Liverpool or Chelsea. But I may think they're worthy of a place."
There has already been the fast- tracking of players such as Tom Cleverley, who has made just 13 Premier League appearances for Manchester United, and Ryan Bertrand, who has made 10 appearances in the same competition for his parent club Chelsea. Hodgson said that despite the unarguably small number of English players in the elite it did not mean that the few who had made the grade, including yesterday's new call-ups, Sterling and Adam Lallana, were not capable of playing international football.
"I'd like to think they're there because they have the talent to be there, even if the numbers of games they can boast is relatively small. Their timing of getting into our thoughts has corresponded when a lot of others who would have been selected have been absent."
Hodgson's more immediate preoccupation is playing Ukraine 84 days after England eliminated them from Euro 2012. He said that his team will be the same one that beat Moldova 5-0 on Friday night with the exception of the injured John Terry. His replacement will be either Phil Jagielka or Gary Cahill with Hodgson saying that the Everton man's former partnership with Joleon Lescott would "not necessarily" enter into his thinking.
It will be Gerrard's 98th cap tonight meaning that he should, injuries permitting, hit 100 when the team play Poland in Warsaw in a World Cup qualifier next month. He said of his Liverpool team-mate Sterling "it won't be too long before he's a regular in this squad – he is that good, and has that talent. But for those young lads who have played for the national team, we shouldn't build up too much expectation."
Was it harder to get into the team when Gerrard was making his way? "Similar" was his diplomatic answer. But if Gerrard has designs on managing England one day he may find his choices severely curtailed if the current trend prevails.

DePrimo said buying the boots "was something I had to do." He tried to persuade the man to get something to eat, but he declined and left.
"When I brought out the shoes, it was just a smile from ear to ear," he said. "It was a great moment for both of us."
DePrimo said he only told his family about the incident at the time, and was surprised when a friend told him the photo was posted on the Internet some time later.
Foster, who is a dispatch manager at the Pinal County Sheriff's Office, said she's worked in law enforcement for 17 years and has never been more impressed.
"His presentation of human kindness has not been lost on myself or any of the Arizona law enforcement officials with whom this story has been shared," Foster wrote on Facebook. She said she never got the officer's name.
DePrimo said he has been on the NYPD for 2½ years. He is assigned to the Sixth Precinct, encompassing Greenwich Village and the West Village, and lives on Long Island with his parents.
He said he keeps the receipt from the boots in his bullet-proof vest, as a reminder that even when things are tough, some people have it tougher.

Chile January CPI posts surprise 0.2 rise, market expected no change
SANTIAGO Feb 8 (Reuters) - Chile's consumer price index posted a 0.2 percent rise in January, defying expectations for no change, as higher transport, housing, water, electricity and gas costs offset lower prices for goods and services, the government said on Friday.
Chile's CPI was unchanged in December following a 0.5 percent fall in November and a 0.6 percent rise in October.
Inflation in the 12 months to January was 1.6 percent, remaining well below the central bank's 3 percent target.
Core inflation was 0.1 percent in January.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
A Testament To The Human Spirit
by Paul on 01/30/08 at 02:15 PM ET
Comments (0)
from Scott Burnside of ESPN,
There is rock bottom and then there is the cold knowledge of what rock bottom will look like. It was 13 years ago that Richard Souray, father of soon-to-be NHLer Sheldon Souray, decided to choose sharing his son's life over life with the bottle.
"I knew that Sheldon was going to be drafted. And I knew that I would at least be around the periphery of it," Souray told ESPN.com in a recent interview. "And I also knew he didn't need a drunken dad around."

New York Evening World, November 20, 1912:
Oh, right, sure. And I bet one day a French-born manager will win a couple World Series. Puh-leeze.

A Lou Berberet sighting! Or citing!5. charityslave is thinking about baseball Posted: November 20, 2012 at 10:07 AM (#4306612)
As a kid, I pronounced his name BER-ber-ette. Once I started taking French, I wanted to say ber-ber-AY. Anybody know how he pronounced it?
Jeez, what does Kennesaw Mountain Landis have to do to get a mention on the all birthday team? ;)6. Dan Lee is some pumkins Posted: November 20, 2012 at 10:29 AM (#4306624)

Nah, I just missed Judge Landis. Side effect of running late and not wanting to be late to work. He can be the commissioner if he disavows segregation.
There's a C/1B named Parker Berberet in the Brewers organization. He's from Long Beach, so I'm assuming he's related to Lou in some fashion. Despite his being in the org for 2 years, I still have no idea how to pronounce his name (I didn't listen to Helena's games last year and Brevard County didn't have radio in 2012.)8. RoyalsRetro (AG#1F) Posted: November 20, 2012 at 12:29 PM (#4306740)
Royals re-sign Jeremy Guthrie to a three year deal. He is going to immediately suck.9. Davo's Favorite Tacos Are Moose Tacos Posted: November 20, 2012 at 01:29 PM (#4306800)
$25 million dollars for Jeremy Guthrie. My goodness.10. BDC Posted: November 20, 2012 at 01:43 PM (#4306807)
There are 29 pitchers who have thrown 750 or more innings over the past four seasons, so by definition those are the 29 most durable starters in the game right now: the Verlanders and Halladays and Weavers, but also the Bronson Arroyos and Ryan Dempsters of the world. They would seem to be valuable properties.11. RoyalsRetro (AG#1F) Posted: November 20, 2012 at 01:54 PM (#4306822)
Jeremy Guthrie is one of them. His ERA for those four seasons ranks 29th out of 29.
Well I applaud the Royals for signing a guy who can be compared to Justin Verlander!12. Hack Wilson Posted: November 20, 2012 at 01:59 PM (#4306828)

Throat Warbler Mangrove
I have also heard it as BER-ber-ette.
Rockies traded lefty non-LOOGY reliever Matt Reynolds to Arizona for Ryan Wheeler. Is Wheeler more of a 1B than 3B? I assume .388/.572 is not special at Reno?14. Morty Causa Posted: November 21, 2012 at 12:58 AM (#4307273)
The French they are a peculiar race
They fight with their feet
And field with their face.

Connected devices and the Internet of Things are getting significant momentum in 2014.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happe...

When an enterprise builds a hybrid IaaS cloud connecting its data center to one or more public clouds, security is often a major topic along with the other challenges involved. Security is closely intertwined with the networking choices made for the hybrid cloud. Traditional networking approaches for building a hybrid cloud try to kludge together the enterprise infrastructure with the public cloud. Consequently this approach requires risky, deep "surgery" including changes to firewalls, subnets...

Barth Confident In Primary Election
by Jeff Rusack, Reporter
June 05, 2012 6:55 PM
Jeff Barth wasn't taking to the streets trying to rally a few last minute votes. Instead he confidently cut his grass and reflected on the campaigning process that brought him to primary election day.
"It's been a joy. I don't feel like it was work. Mowing the yard is more like work," said Barth.
Yard work wasn't the only thing Barth was busy doing Tuesday. He fulfilled his duties as a county commissioner, as well. He feels his role on the commission gives him the ability to negotiate budget issues in a non-partisan way.
"I think if people watch what we do on the county commission, we solve problems, we make government work," said Barth.
Trying to fix how the government works in Washington has been the platform for Barth's campaign.
"Washington is not working. It's not going to work if we elect the same kind of people," said Barth.
As he trimmed his lawn, Barth hoped that the number of competitors he faces would be cut as well.
"There are quite a few thoughtful citizens that will choose to vote for me. And, I think I'm offering a great alternative to the incumbent and the other candidate," said Barth.
A candidate, who hopes to bring change to Washington, waits to see if his campaigning will pay off.

Bill Self altered his game plan vs. Texas Tech to impress Andrew Wiggins
Oct 17, 2013, 11:03 AM EST
Last week, we posted a picture of the cover of the new Sports Illustrated, which featured all-world freshman Andrew Wiggins.
It was a big deal, as Wiggins was the cover boy during what is arguably the busiest time of the year for sports fans.
The article itself, which is now available to read online, was written by Luke Winn and was a terrific read about the three once-in-a-generation talents that have come through Lawrence: Wilt Chamberlain, Danny Manning and now Wiggins.
There are plenty of juicy details in the book about the recruitment of Chamberlain and Manning, which makes it quite evident that even in the 1950′s, athletes had enough value to a community to see their pockets gets line. Chamberlain at one point helped wave cars into an alumni parking lot during football games, where he would pocket hundreds of dollars in "tips".
The best anecdote, however, comes from Bill Self. He was able to land a visit from Wiggins on the day that the Jayhawks hosted Texas Tech, and he tailored his game-plan to impress the recruit:
The Wigginses sat behind KU's bench for a 79–42 blowout of Texas Tech, and it was no coincidence that the game plan was heavy on ball screens and lobs, with point guard Elijah Johnson throwing six alley-oops in the first half. Says Self, "We did the things that gave us the best chance to win and were along the lines of what the family would like to see."
To some, that may seem ridiculous. Wouldn't it be more important for the recruit to see you win than to risk a loss playing the style he wants to see? Keep in mind: Kansas was playing Texas Tech at the Phog. They could have let me out there to handle the point and it probably would have worked out OK.
What's neat, however, is that you're getting a glimpse of just how hard these coaches go after the recruits they're targetting.

On September 21st, New York City will host a "People's Climate March" – a major demonstration of support for action on a global scale to respond to climate change.
The event will coincide with a U.N. sponsored meeting of world leaders to talk about climate policy. Organizers hope it will be the largest climate march – ever.
Local groups working on this event are the Minnesota chapter of 350 dot org and Minnesota Interfaith Power and Light.
Kinshasha talks with Mie Robbins about his inspiring book, Be Yourself, Everyone Else Is Already Taken.
This conversation reminds us that God created each of us for a unique purpose. We live in a world where the lines
between fake and real are are blurred. Mike Robbins shares a powerful conversation that teaches us how to access
and express the realness we crave in our work, our relationships and ourselves.

The sounds of FUFA, FUFA, FUFA could be heard throughout KFAI over the past few months from volunteers and staff, as the Freshen Up Fresh Air (FUFA) Committee worked to "freshen up" the station. Committee volunteers did everything from planning color schemes, selecting floor tiles, painting walls and doors, acquiring hand dryers (at wholesale), installing donated mirrors, moving furniture, to relocating a water fountain to make the kitchen more accessible. To show our appreciation, KFAI held an open house on August 28th where we recognized the FUFA Committee and other volunteers who worked on this important project.
Members of the FUFA Committee included: Debbie Gonsioroski, Susan Gray, Pat Hengemuhle, Nancy Sartor, Nancy Skalkos and Patti Walsh. Other volunteers who helped paint and plaster included Robert Easley, Chris Smith and Jumondeh Tweh. A special thanks to volunteer Chris Elpers, owner of Chris Elpers Carpentry, who laid the restroom floor tiles, trimmed doors, built kitchen cabinets and installed a new kitchen countertop. Also, a special thanks to volunteer Steve Isadore who moved and connected the water fountain, installed restroom faucets and a kitchen light, removed an old TV and hung numerous pictures.
We are also indebted to Elsa's House of Sleep for providing furniture in trade, which was arranged by volunteer Lennie Chism. I was moved by the volunteers' efforts and pleased to donate chairs for the Green Room and photography for the entryway. – Dr. Willie Dean, Executive Director
Thanks to our volunteers for their hard work to "freshen up" Fresh Air!
KFAI will present "For Pete's Sake", a celebration of the life and work of musician and activist Pete Seeger, as a holiday-brightening opener on Labor Day morning from 6 to 8 am. This re-broadcast is appropriately timed because Seeger was a lifelong supporter of organized labor and union causes.
Labor Day means teachers and students are returning to school.
Last May, the teacher's union, Education Minnesota, named a new "Teacher of the Year." There were well over 100 candidates for the honor from the ranks of the 70 thousand member union.
The winner was Thomas Rademacher, who teachers English at the Fine Arts Interdisciplinary Resources School in Downtown Minneapolis.
With the end of August and the State Fair underway, many Minnesota college students have already headed back to campus.
And those who hope to go to college someday should be busy making plans – not only the fun part about choosing a college to attend, but the hard work of figuring out how to pay for it.
At the State Fair this year, the Minnesota College Savings Plan is enthusiastically trumpeting the state-designated "529" investment plan. Robert Stern is the plan's program manager. He talked with KFAI's Mike Fischbein.

This Is What Wall Street's Terrifying Robot Invasion Looks Like 443
from the skynet-begins-in-our-stock-markets dept.
Yes, they are working on the next gen, its something called Skynet. I hear that will really blow you away!
To quote Dave Barry, on the Great Depression as seen from the 1980s:
The stock market of the 1920s was very different from the stock market of today. back then, the market was infested by greed-crazed slimeballs, get-rich-quick speculators with the ethical standards of tapeworms, who shrieked "buy" and "sell" orders into the telephone with no concern whatsoever for the nation's long-term financial well-being. whereas today they use computers.
As in certain cults it is possible to kill a process if you know its true name. -- Ken Thompson and Dennis M. Ritchie

And we still were pretty bad. We didn't give up heaps of points like now, but we didn't get any stops either.
Type: Posts; User: gumby74
And we still were pretty bad. We didn't give up heaps of points like now, but we didn't get any stops either.
JPP, Hankins, DRC, Prince, Rolle, Thurmond, and tons of depth. I'm sure coaches would kill to have those players on their roster. Do they warrant a dead last defense? Hell no. At some point you...
we were terrible in the beginning too. Yeah we weren't giving up heaps of points, but we were stopping anyone either. We were just making them eat up 8 minutes of clock to score. I'd expect much...
didn't we sign thurmond to a multi year deal?
Yeah, but the reason why they gave up fewer points because they just made the opponent wait a little longer to score. They would be giving up 8 minute drives. But something is up, and it's not the...
Eli had a good game. The defense had a ****ty one. They lost it. However, Eli missed a couple game breaking plays that would have changed the game. Those were pretty bad misses - especially from...
We have the players - at least on defense. And we're close to having the players on offense. It's the coaching.
I'm actually pleased with how we played tonight. We got out played and out coached. But god PF blows.
Even when we were healthy, we were terrible. My point is, there's no excuse to be dead last in defense.
That was his one saving grace. His 2 minute magic. With that gone, I really don't know what to do with him now. He plays well enough to win with a decent surrounding cast, but at what cost? They...
Yup. Something stinks and it's not the players.
He's on his rookie contract? We're getting a bargain.
You tell me if a defense that has Prince, Hankins, DRC, Rolle, JPP, Thurmond, and tons of depth should be dead last in the league. The problem is coaching.
I don't understand why people dislike him so much. The guy's a character. I think he's hilarious.
I want to win this game more than ever just because it'd be a shame if we lost the game with him making that catch.
Who's saying cut him? These are the only "negative" things that people are saying. Some more ridiculous then others.
1) Is Eli worth the money?
2) Should we play Nassib and spare Eli since the...
i didn't like the pick either.
PF is the worst. Don't let the door hit your *** on the way out.
Actually i'd venture that most of us on the Giants message board are ok with who he is. We're ok with the criticism he's getting. As part of the hater/realist group it doesn't bother me one bit. ...
That the key. We all know he can coach.
It's like when Pay Riley left the Knicks. And like when Andy Reid left the eagles after the failure with the "dream team". Both are great coaches.
Actually more like energy. Can't be created or destroyed.
Eli is everywhere. He's like the uber qb.
Ahhhh you sneaky devil.
Have you tried comparing against other teams that haven't sucked between 2005 and 2012? This mean, the eagles, steelers, ravens, pats, pakcers etc. Teams that have supposed good front offices.
When everyone's contract is up, you'll see what shape the Broncos will be in. They put all their eggs in one basket. It's the price you pay. It's what happened to the Ravens after they won the SB.

The owner of an Albuquerque area construction company and his son were sentenced Thursday for defrauding a program that helps service-disabled veteran business owners.
In February of 2012, Max Tafoya and his son, Tyler Cole, were charged with obtaining $11 million for falsely claiming that Tafoya's company, M.R. Tafoya Construction, was qualified to participate in a federal program that provides contracts for businesses owned by service-disabled veterans.
Tafoya was sentenced to nearly five years in prison and ordered to pay $1.3 million. Cole will serve three years behind bars and be liable for $500,000 of that amount.
Tafoya is a veteran, but he does not have a service-related disability. Tafoya admitted to authorities that he paid his stepbrother, a service-disabled veteran who lives in Florida, to use his name and status in order to obtain federal contracts for his construction company.
His stepbrother, Andrew Castillo, pleaded guilty to a conspiracy charge. He will be sentenced on June 19.

|This home for sale in Washington has plenty of curb appeal
Whether your goal is to to sell your own primary residence or to flip a great foreclosure, the shortcut to a fast sale at top dollar begins with creating great "curb appeal" for the home.
What exactly is "curb appeal"? It's that vital first (and long-lasting) impression that prospective buyers get when they step out of their car and see your home for the first time. Since today that first view is often on the Internet rather than at the actual curbside, you'll not only want to enhance the home's look but also make sure you take great photos of it.
When I teach people how to create great curb appeal, I don't just stop with the exterior of the home. Improving the interior, which I'll cover in part 2 of this article, is just as important.
Here are five important changes to make that will create great exterior curb appeal and improve the chances of selling your home fast and for a top price:
1. Paint the exterior.
Nothing gives a home a better look and returns a great value on an appraisal than a fresh coat of paint. Select a color that's warm, but somewhat neutral for the exterior walls. A dark color will make the home look smaller, so keep it light. I usually paint my homes beige, and then offset that with white for the trim and garage door. The front door and shutters can add some color to really make the home "pop" upon first impression.
2. Pressure wash.
Before you paint, buy or rent a pressure washer (or hire someone to do it), and remove all of the dirt and green mold (which is harmless, by the way) off the exterior of the home. You should also pressure wash the driveway, walkway to the front door, and sidewalks and curbs. Your home will look sparkling fresh and clean for just a few hours of effort. Safety tip: Watch out for spider webs, wasps, or bees around the soffits of your home as you're pressure washing. Hire a professional pest control company first if your home has an abundance of hives or nests.
3. Improve that landscaping.
Make sure the lawn is mowed and edged once a week while your home is on the market. Brown patches or empty spots should be filled with fresh sod, or put grass seed down a month before you list the home for sale. Bushes should be neatly trimmed, leaves raked and bagged, dead branches removed from trees, and weeds pulled from beds and walkways. Adding red Cyprus mulch around flowerbeds brings some nice color to the home. If too many bushes are hiding your home from view, consider removing some of them. A nice pot of small, colorful flowers by the front door or planted in a window box is a great touch as well.
4. Spruce up the front door.
Make sure you pressure wash and paint the front door along with the rest of the home. Paint the door a colorful accent color like red, burgundy, black, brown, or green. It should match the shutters if you have them. You can also add a kick plate or doorknocker in silver, black, or white to enhance the look of the door. An old, worn out doorbell is very easy and inexpensive to change. If your door still looks old and worn after painting it, consider buying a new one. Realtors know that buyers do take notice of a front door's appearance in evaluating the condition of your home.
5. Surprise those buyers.
You can add miscellaneous items around the front that will elicit comments of pleasant surprise from those who view your home. For example, add a small filtered pond with goldfish, a row of solar lights, or a wrought iron bench under a tree to enhance the curb appeal. But don't add too many items or your home may look cluttered and produce the opposite effect of what you intended.
Many of these home improvements are easy and inexpensive for an investor or homeowner to do, and should add equal or more value to the appraisal than what you spend. Be sure to let the buyer's appraiser know all of the improvements you made so they will be considered toward evaluating your sales price.
Are you giving buyers the right first impression of your home online? Make sure you show off your curb appeal by including the photos every house hunter wants to see in your listing.
