FA Cup Final preview: Will Arsenal end their trophy drought?
May 16, 2014, 8:19 AM EST
The FA Cup final kicks off on Saturday, with Arsenal and Hull City meeting at Wembley at 12 noon ET.
It's all new for Hull, who've never made it to the FA Cup final before – and who, no matter what the outcome, will be headed into the Europa League next season. But that doesn't meant the Tigers will be staring around naively as Arsenal run circles around them. They proved themselves capable of causing trouble in the league by beating Liverpool and topping Newcastle (back when Newcastle could still score) and they might have an upset left in them.
But even the most die-hard Hull fan likely admits that Arsenal have the edge in this one. Hull picked up just one point from their last five league matches, and that was a draw to Fulham. The Gunners, meanwhile, have won their last five, including a 3-0 victory over Hull back in April.
Plus, Arsenal may be fired along by just a touch more desire. A trophy's been a long time coming for the club, with the last one lifted an FA Cup, back in 2005. And although Arsène Wenger insists that his contract extension does not hinge on his team finally picking up another piece of hardware for the cabinet, it may very well figure in to the deal that's yet to be announced.
With Hull known to be pragmatic (or, to be frank, a bit boring) will this be a dull 120 minutes, finished off by a penalty shootout? Or will Steve Bruce throw caution to the wind, telling his team that they have nothing to lose by attacking Arsenal?
The road to the final
Arsenal: The Gunners' FA Cup adventure started off in the most satisfactory of ways, with a 2-0 victory over North London rivals Tottenham. Then came an easy 4-0 victory over League One side Coventry City. The Gunners must've felt nervous when Liverpool came to town, as they'd just lost 5-1 to the Reds the week before. But Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain scored early, and Lukas Podolski added a second shortly after the restart. Steven Gerrard's penalty put the visitors on the board, but in the end it was a 2-1 Arsenal victory.
Next up it was Everton. Despite another early goal, this one from Mesut Özil, the sides were level at the break. Then the Gunners scored three in the second half. The 4-1 win took them to Wembley to face cup-holders Wigan – who proved to be their toughest opponents yet. Per Mertesacker got a late equalizer to force a penalty shootout, in which Lukasz Fabianski played the hero by saving two of Wigan's strikes.
Hull: After forcing Tottenham to extra time in the Fourth Round of the League Cup, only to crash out on penalties, Hull may have felt rather confident about their chances in the FA Cup. A Third Round draw to Championship side Middlesbrough made it easy for the Tigers to progress, 2-0. The next round was even easier, with Hull drawn against League 2 side Southend United. Another 2-0 win and it was off to Brighton to take on one of the best sides in the Championship. Hull came unstuck, needing a late equalizer from Yannick Sagbo to force a replay, which they won 2-1.
Hull's easiest match was, surprisingly, against Sunderland, their only Premier League opposition in the tournament. Curtis Davies, David Meyler, and Matty Fryatt all scored inside ten minutes in the second half. Then it was on to face League One side Sheffield United in the semi-finals at Wembley. The Blades had already disposed of Premier League sides Aston Villa and Fulham, and looked set to do the same to Hull. But the Tigers kept roaring back, eventually sealing a 5-3 win to move on to the final.
What they're saying
Hull manager Steve Bruce, on his club's chances: "The pressure will be on Arsenal because they have not won anything for a while," Bruce said, way back in April, after the conclusion of the semi-finals. "They are a great side, they have great tradition and great history with a top-class manager. We are up against it but we will do our best."
Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger on that pressure: "There is a huge desire for us to finish the job in the FA Cup. There is a pressure there, a big one, but a positive one and we want to take that opportunity," said Wenger. "It's an opportunity for us to crown our season. There is always a huge expectancy. It brings pressure but we played many games in the season under that pressure and tension. That experience will help us in the final."
No surprises in this one. Bruce is not likely to deviate from his plan, but Arsenal's attack – particularly with Aaron Ramsey back – will be able to pick apart the Hull defense. The Gunners will finally have another trophy to polish up.

Commitment Analysis: Bryce English

|English Heading West
Bryce English
DeSoto defensive tackle Bryce English made his commitment to UCLA....
Bryce English, 5-foot-11, 315-pound defensive tackle from DeSoto (Texas) High had a unique experience getting to commit to UCLA on television.
The one time Texas Longhorn commit has been through a lot on the recruiting trail, forced to open his recruitment back up after the departure of Mack Brown in Austin.
"It was very difficult. With the help of my family, friends and my coaches I think I finally picked the right school," English said live on Fox 4.
English picked the Bruins over Arkansas, Arizona State and TCU.
First he eliminated ASU by tossing its hat from the table of finalists, making it a top three of the Bruins, Hogs and Horned Frogs.
"They are great program, nothing against them, but these other three schools really fit me," English informed.
Then he eliminated the Hogs, bringing it to two schools.
"I am gonna go ahead and throw out Arkansas," English continued his eliminations by tossing the hat from the table.
With only two hats on the table English confirmed he would be going out of state and playing in Westwood.
"I will be continuing my college career in collegiate football at the University of California Los Angeles," English said as he slipped on the Bruins cap.
"It's a great fit for me and I love Los Angeles."
English is rated as a scout three-star defensive tackle, the No. 32 overall player at his position nationally.

Lilly freezes pay as patent cliff looms
24 July 2013 Business
Drugmaker targets $400 million savings as two key patents near expiry
Eli Lilly stands to gain billions of dollars in revenue from sales of chemotherapy drug Alimta in the US, after it won a legal battle to uphold a patent covering the drug's use in combination with B vitamins.
When used alone, Alimta (pemetrexed) can have severe, potentially fatal side effects. Trials carried out by Lilly established that combining Alimta with folic acid and vitamin B12 reduced these effects. The compound patent is due to expire in 2017, but an additional patent covering the use of the drug with the vitamin supplements will last until 2022. Israel-based firm Teva Pharmaceutical Industries disputed the validity of this patent, saying that adding supplements to the drug was a logical approach to reducing side effects. But the court ruled in Lilly's favour, concluding that the company had put significant resources into developing the treatment regimen.
The win could mean around $500 million (£302 million) extra in sales per year after 2017 for Lilly, making up for some losses after the patent on its best-selling drug – antidepressant Cymbalta – expired in December last year. In a bid to protect Alimta sales overseas, Lilly is also currently involved in similar court cases in the UK, Germany and with the EU Patent Office.

The Original Pancake House ignores the competition
|| Print |
|Articles - June 2010
|Friday, May 28, 2010
It's certainly an unusual business playbook: buy only the best ingredients, don't keep track of food costs, don't advertise, don't crunch numbers, don't chase trends, ignore the competition, value relationships over profit, don't answer the phone, worship butter. Don't change. Anything. Ever.
This true north has been unwavering ever since pater familias Lester Highet opened the first Original Pancake House in 1953 on SW Barbur Boulevard in Portland. Lester and wife Doris begat Ron who wed Elinor and they begat Ann and Elizabeth. These four owners, along with Ann's husband, Jon Liss, have begat 111 franchises in 27 states that gross approximately $155 million in annual revenue. It's all built on the irresistible foundation of a big, buttery mound of grilled batter.
So you want to know the secret to the long lines of devoted customers and the steady growth of nationwide outlets, unscathed by economic meltdowns and diet fads. You want to take a look under the hood, talk about spreadsheets and market research. You are, after all, a serious business journalist, not here to review the award-winning food. Leave that to James Beard or Jane and Michael Stern. The family looks at you like you're nuts.
"The only thing we have going for us is the quality of the food," says president Ron Highet, who cooked for decades in the kitchen and at 77 still visits the franchises. "We're so good it allows us to be arrogant."
It's fitting that the weekly corporate meeting of the four family owners and Jon, who is general counsel and corporate chef, takes place above the kitchen and while business is conducted an enormous apple pancake and a Dutch baby are delivered from below.
"Our food is not processed. No trans fats. No high fructose. It is fine, fresh ingredients. The body is happy to eat it," Jon says as he begins to do just that. "That's why we've remained strong through all the health fads. There was no dip in business during the no-carb phase. The trends never move us. When times are good they want our sugar and when times are bad they want our sugar."
"The secret is that there is no secret," says Elizabeth, the treasurer. "We've been the same since 1953."
This family is seriously, deeply in love with their food. Poseurs need not apply.
"We're looking for [franchisees] who are the bizarre blend of getting behind the grill and having a lot of money," says the enviably slim 46-year-old Ann, who holds the title of secretary, while her mother is vice president.
"It's how we do it. It's simply the daily dedication to perfection. We're drawn to people with that desire," says the 55-year-old Jon, who fell in love with Ann at the restaurant years ago when they were kids. They and Elizabeth, who is 43, all have law degrees, and you wonder if this amount of sugar and butter could turn other lawyers into such nice people. "If they're too into the numbers and not about the food, it won't work," adds Elizabeth. "We don't even know what our food costs are."
The family approves about three to five new franchises every year. It's a $60,000 fee to get in, and the Highets get 2% of monthly gross receipts. Operators get 10 weeks of training at the Portland mothership. Jon says they are being cautious about new deals and they are not in the business of fast growth. They want high quality and strong relationships instead.
"We just plod," says Elizabeth. "We're slow and steady and thorough."
As with every family business, the question of who will take over is an important one. The Highet succession plan is simple. The daughters are buying 3% of the company each year from their parents, and the older generations are counting on the youngsters (four grandchildren between ages 5 and 12) falling equally in love with the pancake trade.
"We hope they realize that what we have is so wonderful that they come into the business," says Jon. "We just have to believe one of those children will feel that passion. It would break our hearts to sell. Our plan, if you want to call it that, is for them to take over." A small back and forth between Jon and Ann about their young son who wants to be a rock star is quickly dropped.
It's all very homey, but don't let that fool you. The running of this operation is very intentional and detailed, even if that isn't expressed in spreadsheets and corporate jazz. They know what success looks like and it's a serious business with a holy undercurrent.
"It's not just work," says Ron. "It's someone's breakfast."

I hope my sperm were as drunk as I was.
Appropriately today was the first time I've ever GTL'd. I can't believe I made fun of this,it's rather relaxing.
This guy at the party just introduced himself to me as "the guy who sat behind you on a plane last year"
this whole plan B standoff thing with her is really starting to make me nervous
we tried to steal a tractor last night. you should have come out.
I thought about puking over the balcony or the bathroom and figured the balcony seemed much funner.
her best friend is in town and she told me that they used to fool around when they were drunk and I'd have to "help keep that from happening"
Just because im a good person doesn't mean that I don't reserve the right to be a complete dick about it.
I told him he was a man of science and that he should conduct experiments on my tits to see how they stay up. I need you to hold onto my larynx when I'm drunk.
He is into some weird shit i walked in his room last night he was waving his hard dick around hitting shit yellin cock fight

U.S.-based Dallara IndyCar simulator under construction
Mar 10, 2014, 3:38 PM EST
Last summer, NBCSN's Jan Beekhuis gave viewers a look inside Dallara's Italian headquarters, which includes a state-of-the-art simulator used regularly by IndyCar Series teams.
But now, a second simulator is being constructed at the IndyCar chassis manufacturer's outpost in Speedway, Indiana, a stone's throw from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
According to the series, the American simulator will be fully operational by the end of April, just in time for the Indianapolis 500. However, it already has the reconfigured IMS road course – site for the inaugural Grand Prix of Indianapolis on May 10 – available for teams to test out potential set-ups for that race.
Per Dallara testing manager Alessandro Moroni, both the American and Italian simulators will be linked together, although newer technology will make the American one more powerful. The simulator figures to be primarily used for racing purposes, but Dallara hopes to use it for other means as well.
"Automotive and tire manufacturers – any kind of simulation," Dallara USA CEO Stefano DePonti told IndyCar.com. "I also have in mind simulations with police departments for training, such as car chases.
"…You can test a new component with accuracy and less expense than real testing. You get aware by using the simulator; if I use it for this, maybe I can use it for this other aspect."
Last May, a $1.15 million grant from the Indiana Economic Development Corporation was given to the motorsports engineering program at the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology inside Indiana University Purdue University-Indianapolis.
The school has a research partnership with Dallara, and through that grant, funding was found to create and operate the new simulator.

In other trading, seven of the 10 industry groups in the S&P 500 index fell. Two groups that investors tend to buy when they want to play it safe, utilities and health care, made slight gains.
The Nasdaq composite inched up one point to 3,253.
The S&P 500 closed within two points of its all-time high of 1,565 on Tuesday, helped by rising home prices and orders for manufactured goods. The stock index hit that peak on Oct. 9, 2007, before the Great Recession and a financial crisis roiled financial markets.
Among other stocks making big moves:
— Cliffs Natural Resources, an iron ore mining company, plunged 15 percent, the biggest loss in the S&P 500. Analysts warned that falling iron ore prices would likely sink the company's stock. Cliffs fell $3.14 to $18.29.
— Science Applications International Corp. surged 5 percent after the security and communications technology provider reported a fourth-quarter profit that was better than analysts were expecting. SAIC also announced a special dividend of $1 per share. Its stock gained 58 cents to $13.40.

Saudi preacher gets light sentence for killing daughter
Saudi has been sentenced to pay blood money after having served a short jail term
Riyadh: A Saudi preacher who raped his five-year-old daughter and tortured her to death has been sentenced to pay "blood money" to the mother after having served a short jail term, activists said on Saturday.
Lama Al Ghamdi was admitted to hospital on December 25, 2011 with multiple injuries, including a crushed skull, broken ribs and left arm, extensive bruising and burns, the activists said. She died last October 22.
Fayhan Al Gamdi, an Islamic preacher and regular guest on Muslim television networks, confessed to having used cables and a cane to inflict the injuries, the activists from the group "Women to Drive" said in a statement.
They said the father had doubted Lama's virginity and had her checked up by a medic.
Randa Al Kaleeb, a social worker from the hospital where Lama was admitted, said the girl's back was broken and that she had been raped "everywhere", according to the group.
According to the victim's mother, hospital staff told her that her "child's rectum had been torn open and the abuser had attempted to burn it closed."
The activists said that the judge had ruled the prosecution could only seek "blood money (compensation for the next of kin under Islamic law) and the time the defendant had served in prison since Lama's death suffices as punishment."
Three Saudi activists, including Manal Al Sharif, have raised objections to the ruling.
The ruling is based on Saudi laws that a father cannot be executed for murdering his children, nor can husbands be executed for murdering their wives,
