Jerusalem Gay Pride Parade.
(photo credit:Marc Israel Sellem)
Homosexuality has become the latest contentious issue straining the unity of Orthodox Judaism. This week, about 100 moderate Orthodox rabbis and teachers, including many women, from North America and Israel signed a "statement of principles" outlining an open, accepting approach to homosexuals who want to maintain ties with their Orthodox community, family and friends. Publication of the document coincided with Jerusalem's annual Gay Pride Parade, which took place Thursday. It also coincides with the one-year anniversary of the shooting at the "Bar No'ar" gay community youth center in Tel Aviv, which resulted in two casualties and whose culprit has yet to be caught.The document, a product of months of deliberations, is full of the tensions and nuances inherent in any attempt to combine liberalism, openness and sensitivity with a commitment to tradition and religious strictures. The rabbis and educators differentiate, for instance, between prohibited male homosexual sexual relations on one hand, and the gay man's or woman's uncontrollable sexual attraction, which is not specifically proscribed or disparaged by the Torah. In another example, the rabbis call on Orthodox communities to embrace the children of homosexual couples, while rejecting the legitimacy of same-sex unions. This is obviously an honest and heartfelt attempt to grapple with the reality of homosexuality.Some of the principles seem self-evident and hardly in need of mentioning. The first principle, for instance, insists that homosexuals, like any other human beings, were created in the image of God and should, therefore, be respected.Yet, sadly, in many Orthodox circles, this moral axiom is far from obvious. A case in point was haredi Deputy Mayor of Jerusalem Yitzhak Pindrus's odious request to the capital's police force to hold a "donkey parade" alongside Thursday's Gay Pride route to express what Pindrus called the "bestial" nature of homosexuality. As befits a healthy democracy, which probably would not exist if men like Pindrus had their way, haredi anti-gay demonstrators were offered the compromise of carrying cardboard cut-outs of donkeys – which was accepted. Komimiyut, a religious Zionist settler movement, organized its own "beast parade" several years ago. And Shas chairman Eli Yishai has called homosexuals "sick people."A WIDE divide separates Yishai, Pindrus and other reactionary representatives of Orthodoxy from signatories of the "statement of principles" such as Israeli rabbis Benny Lau and Yuval Cherlow and American rabbis Haskel Lookstein and Avi Weiss.Besides the issue of homosexuality, these two "camps" in Orthodoxy differ on everything from conversion, to the role of women, to how to cope with the aguna problem – the plight of women who are unable to remarry due to the intransigence of a husband who refuses to give a get.

Care in our community: what Disability Care Australia will mean to campaigner and mother Jo Russell
Jo has two children with autism and had lobbied hard for a National Disability Insurance Scheme.
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
She said she was elated when the NDIS legislation was officially passed and is waiting eagerly for WA to officially sign up to the rollout.
"I was absolutely thrilled, the fact that it's now been passed and entrenched in legislation means the NDIS has officially been launched as Disability Care Australia," she said.
"So from now on it will be a case of it's there, in legislation, it exists, it is going to happen, so that's very exciting and the most transformational piece of reform we've seen in the disability sector in decades."
Jo said she believes attitudes have changed towards disability care, which was seen as "just another tax or imposition" when former Prime Minister Julia Gillard was looking to finance the NDIS.
"I think people are becoming better acquainted with the NDIS and what it will mean for hundreds of thousands of Australians that live with disability every day."
As for the practical side of what DCA will mean for Jo and her family on a daily basis, she said it was the long term benefits that would have the biggest impact.
"With autism my children are physically healthy, with the NDIS I don't know that it will make a great difference to our daily life, but what it will give me is the reassurance that when we're no longer here, what my children will need for a good life will be available.
"Because it's passed through legislation, the scheme will exist and refine as it goes on, and what my children need to access will be available rather than having to wait and queue for it or lobby for it.
"So that's the beauty of the NDIS."
Moving forward, Jo said she wants to see close consultation between government, people with disabilities and their families about how the scheme should be implemented.
"I'd like to see some rigorous, robust debate and discussion about how the NDIS is going to shape up and to keep it at the forefront of the political lobby as we go into an election.
"I've been targeting our premier, sending him some letters and emails encouraging him to sign up to the NDIS because at this stage WA is the only state in the country that's not currently signed up to the rollout of the NDIS.
"There is no doubt that WA eventually will sign up, the premier has reaffirmed that, but it's difficult to know what's going to happen because there's no date... I think people in WA are very keen to become part of the scheme."

Carnival Freedom Cruise Review by DebbieActon: HAPPY CRUISERS!

Compare Prices on Carnival Freedom Southern Caribbean Cruises
My family (husband, 16 year old son, 13 year old daughter and myself) cruised the March 10th sailing of the Freedom. In short, we were very pleased with all aspects. We have cruised 8 times and I believe this ranks at the top. The cabin, food, ship, ports, entertainment and service were all more than we expected. Everyone on board we encountered seemed to be in a great mood and ready to have a good vacation.
Yes, the decor is a little scary at first but a few days in I no longer really even noticed.
We enjoyed all the ports - Grand Turk, La Romana, Curacao and Aruba. After 4 ports in a row, the 2 days at sea was really nice.
We only went to one "big" show, the Beatles Review, and really enjoyed it. Big production, good talent with lots of scene and costume changes.
What really seemed to surprise us was the entertainment staff. We enjoyed the comedy, karaoke and the trivia. We have never participated before like we did this time. Brad was a More very good CD and his staff really seemed to enjoy themselves and I think that made a real difference for us. When we were getting off the ship they had funny nicknames for my kids that really made them feel special. Imagine all these passengers and they were known by name!
Everything ran smoothly with all events starting pretty much on time. We disembarked from cabin to cab in 15 minutes and that was including locating our luggage. Less

A bearing steel containing about 0.8% to about 1.2% carbon, about 0.5% to about 1.33% manganese, about 0.25% to about 0.7% silicon, about 0.14% to about 0.5% molybdenum, up to about 0.75% chromium and the balance essentially iron has improved hardenability and resistance to rolling contact fatigue than does the standard 52100 bearing steel.
1. A wrought steel in the spheroidized and hardened condition having high hardness and resistance to rolling contact fatigue consisting essentially, by weight, of about 0.8% to about 1.2% carbon, about 0.5% to about 1.33% manganese, about 0.25% to about 0.7% silicon, about 0.25% to about 0.5% molybdenum, up to about 0.75% chromium, up to about 0.01% aluminum, up to about 0.03% nitrogen, with the balance essentially iron, said steel demonstrating superior hardenability to that of standard SAE 52100 and showing substantially no evidence of graphitization after a long spheroidize-annealing cycle.
2. A steel in accordance with claim 1 containing at least about 0.25% chromium and not more than about 0.5% silicon.
3. A steel in accordance with claim 1 consisting essentially of about 0.95% to about 1.15% carbon, about 0.55% to about 1% manganese, about 0.45% to about 0.7% silicon, about 0.25% to about 0.35% molybdenum, about 0.2% to about 0.35% chromium and the balance essentially iron.
4. A rolling contact bearing made of a wrought spheroidized and hardened steel having the composition set forth in claim 1.
5. The process for producing a wrought steel having high hardenability and, in the hardened condition, having high resistance to rolling contact fatigue which comprises hot working an ingot made of a steel composition consisting essentially of, by weight, about 0.8% to about 1.2% carbon, about 0.5% to about 1.33% manganese, about 0.25% to about 0.7% silicon, about 0.25% to about 0.5% molybdenum, up to about 0.75% chromium, up to about 0.01% aluminum, up to about 0.03 nitrogen, with the balance essentially iron, normalizing a resultant hot-worked form, spheroidizing the normalized form by sequentially heating in a first step at a temperature not more than 50� F. below the Ac1 temperature for the steel for a time sufficient to partially spheroidize perlite, then heating in a second step at a temperature intermediate Ac1 and Acm to produce further spheroidization of lamellar carbides, dissolution of fine carbides and partial solution of larger carbides and then a heating in a third step at essentially the same subcritical temperature as that employed in said first step to cause precipitation upon and coarsening of existing carbides in the microstructure of said steel, with substantially no evidence of graphitization after a long spheroidize-annealing cycle.
6. The process in accordance with claim 5 wherein the temperature in each of said first and third steps is between about 1220� and 1320� F., the temperature of said second step is at least about 15� F., above Ac1 for said steel and is between about 1255� F. and 1350� F.
7. The process in accordance with claim 5 wherein said steel contains at least about 0.25% chromium and not more than about 0.5% silicon.
8. The process in accordance with claim 5 wherein said steel contains about 0.95% to about 1.15% carbon, about 0.55% to about 1% manganese, about 0.45% to about 0.7% silicon, about 0.25% to about 0.35% molybdenum and about 0.2% to about 0.35% chromium.
The present invention is directed to a steel of special composition which, in the spheroidized and hardened condition, exhibits high resistance to rolling contact fatigue and hence is particularly suitable for service in ball and roller bearings and in bearing races therefor.
The steel A.I.S.I. 52100 which contains, nominally, 0.95% to 1.10% carbon, 0.25% to 0.45% manganese, 0.20% to 0.35% silicon, 1.3% to 1.6% chromium and the balance, except for impurities, iron has long been known and has become recognized as the standard material for the production of bearings such as ball and roller bearings and races therefor. While this steel has established a welldeserved reputation, it would be desirable to provide a bearing steel having hardenability and rolling contact fatigue resistance which are improved as compared in properties to those of 52100. Mention can also be made of U.S. Pat. No. 3,155,550 and No. 3,194,698 which disclose chromium-free steel compositions said to be suitable in bearing service. U.S. Pat. No. 3,799,766 discloses a lowchromium steel for bearing service. The silicon content of the steels disclosed is too low to provide synergistic hardenability in combination with the molybdenum content given and nickel is relied upon to increase hardenability.
The steel provided in accordance with the invention contains about 0.8% to about 1.2% carbon, about 0.5% to about 1.33% manganese, about 0.25% to about 0.7% silicon, about 0.14% to about 0.5% molybdenum, up to about 0.75% chromium, up to about 0.01% aluminum, up to about 0.03% nitrogen, no more than about 0.02% each of the impurities phosphorus and sulfur and the balance essentially iron. Preferably, the carbon content is about 0.95% to about 1.15%, the manganese content is about 0.55% to about 1.00%, the silicon content is about 0.45% to about 0.70%, the molybdenum content is about 0.25% to about 0.35% and chromium is employed in amounts of about 0.2% or about 0.25% up to about 0.35%.
The wrought steel after a normalizing heat treatment will have a pearlitic structure which is spheroidized by step-wise heat treatment in which the first step is accomplished at a temperature slightly below Ac1 for the steel, e.g., within 50� F. below Ac1, the second step is conducted at an intercritical temperature above Ac1, but below Acm, e.g., about 15� F. above Ac1, and the third step is again conducted below Ac1. Heat treatment time in each step can vary considerably depending on operating factors and the response of an individual steel composition. For example, four hours or more in each of the three steps, totaling 12 hours, is usually sufficient. Some slight graphitization, well below one volume percent of graphite, and only when the silicon content is on the high side of the range, yet believed harmless to performance of the steel in bearing service, may be encountered in spheroidization treatments exceeding 12 hours, e.g., up to 24 hours. For large batches of steel requiring treatments exceeding 12 hours, e.g., up to 24 hours, it is preferred to limit silicon to about 0.5% or 0.55% and to employ a small amount of chromium, e.g., about 0.2% to about 0.5%. This prevents graphitization for treatments lasting up to 48 hours. Temperatures exceeding Acm are avoided during spheroidization.

A number of steels in accordance with the invention were prepared, processed and heat treated with the results set forth in the following Examples.
A laboratory steel melt was prepared containing 1.05 wt. % C, 0.54 wt. % Mn, 0.70 wt. % Si, 0.016 wt. % P, 0.022 wt. % S, and 0.30 wt. % Mo, with the balance Fe. This steel was cast into an ingot and forged into 36 mm. diameter bar stock, portions of which were subjected to a spheroidizing cycle of three four-hour stages. In the first stage, the steel was heated to 1297� F., below Ac1, during which the pearlite phase was allowed to coarsen. The steel was then heated to 1337� F. in the second stage, which was above Ac1 but below Acm. Lamellar carbides were broken up and spheroidized in this stage; fine carbides were dissolved while larger carbides remained partially undissolved. The steel was then cooled to 1247� F. (again below Ac1) for a third four-hour stage, during which iron carbides coarsened. The steel was then cooled in the furnace. This steel was then subjected to a hardening treatment, consisting of austenitizing for 15 minutes at 1535� F., quenching into oil at 145� F., and tempering for one hour at 350� F. The microstructure of the resulting product comprising spheroidized carbides in a matrix of tempered martensite. Following the quenching and tempering, the steel developed a hardness of 63 HRC, which is well within the expected range of 60-65 HRC for SAE 52100 steels. The steel in this Example contained 15% retained austenite, which compares favorably to an average of 12% retained austenite in conventional SAE 52100 steel.
Four heats of the Si--Mo bearing steel were prepared having the compositions set forth in Table 1.

The 65 pound heats were cast, forged, spheroidize annealed, hardened and tempered to proper hardness of about 62 Hardness Rockwell C (HRC) as described in this invention, except in two cases (Heats #2 and #5) the spheriodize annealing time of 30 hours exceeded the maximum recommended range of 24 hours by six hours. The other two heats (Heats #1 and #4) were spheroidize annealed for 12 hours.
The heats were used for the preparation of a series of cylindrical specimens to be tested in the Ball-Rod Rolling Contact Fatigue Tester and in the Rod-Disk Rolling Contact Fatigue Tester. These tests are described in "Rolling Contact Fatigue Testing of Bearing Steels" J. J. C. Hoo, Editor, ASTM Special Technical Publication 771, 1984, pp. 85-106 and ibid., pp. 107-124, respectively. These two tests are used exclusively in testing for the rolling contact fatigue resistance of bearing steels. Principally, in the first test a cylindrical pin (3/8 in. dia.) is held under 786 Ksi Hertzian stress inside of a bearing race containing three equally spaced balls (1/2 in. dia.) while the specimen rotates at a circular speed of 3600 rpm. In the second test, the same type of cylindrical pin (3/8 in. dia.) is confined under 700 Ksi Hertzian stress between two opposite rollers (71/2 in. dia. disks, 1/2 in. thick having the outside edge rounded to 1/4 in. radius). The test specimen is rotated at a circular speed of 12500 rpm. In either case, the test is stopped when spalling of the surface of the test specimen occurs. The results are reported in terms of "life" (i.e., millions of revolutions accumulated before failure) at which the probability of failure is 10% (L/10) and 50% (L/50). The results of the fatigue tests are given in Table 2.

The above results represent a substantial improvement in the rolling contact fatigue resistance for the steel of the invention as compared to AISI 52100 steel.
Material from Heats No. 2 and 5, the compositions of which are given in Table 1 which had been cast in 51/4 inch diameter by 85/8 inch long steel tube molds standing on copper blocks was hot forged between 2050� and 1800� F. into 11/4 in. dia. bar stock and normalized at 1650� F. End-quench hardenability test specimens were prepared from this stock for each steel. The specimens were austenitized at 1550� F. for 30 minutes before end-quenching with water. Two parallel flats were ground on each bar 180 degrees apart, and Rockwell C hardness "HRC" was determined as a function of the distance from the quenched end.
The results are plotted in FIG. 1 where they are compared to the results on 15 heats of AISI 52100 bearing steel. The results, represented by characteristic Jominy curves, show that the curves of the Si--Mo steels are displaced substantially to the right, i.e., toward higher hardness at greater depth below the quenched end of the hardenability bars, with respect to the data band for the AISI 52100 bearing steel. Such displacement is evidence of the Si--Mo steels of the invention having a substantially higher hardenability than the AISI 52100 bearing steel.
Four 22.5 kg (50 lb) heats of Si--Cr--Mo steel were argon-induction melted. The initial charge for each heat consisted of Plastiron, ferrosilicon, ferrophosphorus, ferrosulfur, chromium and molybdenum. Appropriate amounts of aluminum, Acheson graphite and manganese were added after meltdown. The molten steel was poured into 90 mm (3.5 in.) diameter by 180 mm (7.0 in.) long steel pipe molds standing on copper chill blocks.
The steels were analyzed for carbon, manganese, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur, chromium, molybdenum, aluminum and nitrogen using standard methods of chemical analysis. The results of the analyses are listed in Table 3.
TABLE 3______________________________________Composition, %Heat NNo. C Mn Si P S Cr Mo Al (ppm)______________________________________6 (P-1.01 1.00 0.42 0.018 0.015 0.25 0.27 0.009 52453)7 (P-1.14 1.33 0.53 0.018 0.014 0.25 0.34 0.009 82454)8 (P-1.13 1.11 0.49 0.018 0.014 0.49 0.33 0.007 102455)9 (P-1.14 1.13 0.52 0.018 0.015 0.75 0.34 0.008 82456)______________________________________
A portion of each ingot was hot forged between 1150� C. (2100� F.) and 1040� C. (1900� F.) into 36 mm (13/8 in.) diameter bar stock and normalized at 900� C. (1650� F.). The end-quench hardenability test specimens were machined from the normalized stock, austenitized at 845� C. (1550� F.) for 30 minutes and end-quenched. Two parallel flats were ground on each bar 180 degrees apart, and Rockwell C hardness was determined as a function of the distance from the quenched end. The procedure of the test conformed with ASTM Standard A255-67.
The normalized 36 mm (13/8 in.) diameter bar stock was utilized for the preparation of dilatometric specimens. The specimens measured 3.00 mm (0.118 in.) in diameter by 10.0 mm (0.394 in.) long. A 2.00 mm (0.079 in.) diameter hole was drilled axially into one end to accommodate a platinum-rhodium thermocouple which was percussion welded to the bottom of the hole.
The critical temperatures Ac1 and Acm were determined on a Formastor-F dilatometer in which specimens are induction heated and either radiation cooled or forced-convection cooled by helium at various rates. During the heating and cooling cycles, changes in the specimen length and in temperature versus time were simultaneously recorded.
The critical temperatures, Ac1, at which austenite begins to form on heating, and Acm, at which the steel becomes fully austenitic, were determined by heating the specimens rapidly to 600� C. (1112� F.), and then heating at a constant rate of 2� C./min (3.6� F./min) to 960� C. (1760� F.), and are set forth in Table 4.
TABLE 4______________________________________Critical Temperatures, �C. (�F.)Heat Ac1 Acm______________________________________6 (P-2453) 698 (1288) 725 (1337)7 (P-2454) 690 (1274) 715 (1319)8 (P-2455) 720 (1328) 735 (1355)9 (P-2456) 720 (1328) 735 (1355)______________________________________
The forged 36 mm (13/8 in.) diameter bar stock was spheroidize-annealed in three stages. In the first stage (16 hours long), the steels were held at a subcritical temperature, allowing the pearlite to partially spheroidize. In the second stage (8 hours long), the temperature was increased to an intercritical temperature causing further spheroidization of the lamellar carbides. During this stage carbides that were very fine dissolved completely while larger carbides dissolved partially to act as "seed" carbides in the next stage. In the third stage (16 hours long), the temperature was lowered again to the same subcritical temperature as the first stage where the carbon in solution precipitated principally on the existing carbides, making them coarse. The cycle ended by air cooling the steels to room temperature.
The hardening treatment of the spheriodize-annealed steels consisted of austenitizing for 30 minutes at 835� C. (1535� F.), quenching into oil at 63� C. (145� F.) and tempering for one hour at 175� C. (350� F.).
The percent retained austenite of the hardened steels was determined using a standard procedure based on comparison of integrated intensity of the α200 diffraction line with that of the γ220 line. The source of X-rays was the K-radiation of a molybdenum target. The percent retained austenite for heats 6 (P2453), 7 (P2454), 8 (P2455) and 9 (P2456) were, respectively, 30.2%, 30.8%, 22.3%, and 21.6%.
Hardness profiles (HRC) were determined on oil quenched and tempered steel bars 36 mm (13/8 in.) in diameter.
The microstructures of the spheroidize-annealed steels were examined in the light microscope and photomicrographs of selected microstructures taken at 1000 diameters are shown in FIGS. 4A to D.
The Jominy hardenability curves of the four steels tested are plotted in FIGS. 2 and 3 where they are compared to an experience band of SAE 52100 based on 15 heats of the steel. In all cases, the steels are displaced to the right of the band indicating superior hardenability over that of the standard SAE 52100. They thus more than satisfy the customary minimum hardenability requirement for bearing steels which is a hardness of 55 HRC at the J5 distance (i.e., five sixteenths of an inch from the quenched end of the Jominy bar).
The subcritical temperatures for the spheroidize-annealing cycle, i.e., 670� C. (1238� F.) and 700� C. (1292� F.) (see FIG. 1) were selected to be about 20� to 28� C. (36� to 50� F.) degrees below the Ac1 temperature. The intercritical hold was done at a temperature 5� to 15� C. (9� to 27� F.) below the Acm temperature. The total length of the full 40-hour cycle far exceeds the length of the usual commercial spheroidize-anneal cycle of 24 hours.
The microstructures of the spheroidize-annealed specimens of Heats 6 (P-2453), 7 (P-2454), 8 (P-2455) and 9 (P-2456) are presented in FIGS. 4A to D, respectively are characterized by fine spheroidized carbides in the matrix of ferrite.
The hardness profiles determined upon the hardened 36 mm bars demonstrated that the desired surface hardness of 61-63 HRC, thereby showing the desired hardness result was obtained. No evidence of graphitization was observed even after the excessively long 40-hour spheroidize-anneal cycle showing that chromium in the small amount of about 0.25% coupled with a silicon content in the 0.4-0.5% range prevented graphitization.
Although the present invention has been described in conjunction with preferred embodiments, it is to be understood that modifications and variations may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as those skilled in the art will readily understand. Such modifications and variations are considered to be within the purview and scope of the invention and the appended claims.

Three-alarm fire damages city apartment building, 30 displaced
Officer Ben Foster was on patrol around 2 a.m. Sunday when he saw flames on the three-story apartment building at the corner of Granite and Barr streets. (Jeffrey Hastings)
MANCHESTER - A city patrolman is credited with helping save the lives of 30 people when he ran into a burning building on Barr Street.
Officer Ben Foster was on patrol around 2 a.m. Sunday when he saw flames on the three-story apartment building at the corner of Granite and Barr streets.
"He saw the fire and then radioed it in," said Manchester Police Sgt. Kristen Taylor. "He then helped get people out."
Bishnu Gurung, 24, was sleeping when police officers started banging on her door and yelling for her to get out of the building.
"He was calling to wake up," she said.
Gurung and her husband, Karna Gurung, 28, grabbed their 2-year-old daughter, Katrina, and headed out into the cold as the fire burned through the roof. District Fire Chief Michael Gamache said there were 20 adults and 10 children in the building when the fire started, all of them sleeping as the fire did not activate the smoke detectors inside.
"That's scary, especially with 30 people in the building," Gamache said.
The fire likely burned for about an hour before it was seen by Foster, Gamache said. The fire is believed to have started in an electrical fixture in an exterior porch. It worked its way through the porch roof and then into the walls of the building and up to the attic without sending any smoke into the living area where the detectors were placed, he said.
"No smoke would have reached the living quarters," Gamache said.
Firefighters then went through the 100-year-old building, rescuing people trapped inside who were unable to get out earlier. There were six people the firefighters found in various parts of the building, Gamache said.
The fire could have easily been much worse, according to Gamache, as the apartment building is located in a densely populated area, and fire crews worked to contain the fire to keep it from spreading, he said.
"We evacuated the adjacent building," he said.
Many of the residents are staying with family and friends. The building sustained more than $250,000 in damage, Gamache said. The Red Cross has been to the scene and offered assistance to all of the residents, he said.
In the coming week, Manchester police will consider whether Foster's actions assisting victims from the building warrant commendation, said Sgt. Taylor.
The fire remains under investigation, but Gamache said it does not appear suspicious in origin, the fire appears to be the result of an electrical malfunction.

Sasha's inauguration yawn goes viral
Updated On: Jan 22 2013 10:27:32 AM CST
Maybe it was boredom or lack of sleep, but Sasha Obama's big yawn during her dad's inauguration has gone viral online.
The president was talking education when the 11 year-old let out a serious yawn.
Fatigue or boredom aside, Sasha did manage to keep clapping for her dad.
This is not the first time the youngest Obama daughter has yawned while listening to her father. In 2008, she yawned during the Democratic National Convention with her head on her mom's lap, USA Today reported.
Sasha also made headlines Sunday, when her dad was officially sworn in. Afterward, she congratulated him by saying, "Good job, Dad. You didn't mess up."

Leading up to the kickoff against Nicholls State, Duck fans were anxious to see what Oregon would look like under new coach Mark Helfrich. Chip Kelly had led the program to previously unprecedented heights, and had done so using a unique and distinctive approach. His trademark spread option attack put up staggering stats, and routinely churned out over 300 yards per game rushing, while scoring more points than ever before.
After Chip left to become the head coach in Philadelphia, many sided with the popular opinion: it would be crazy to change much, if anything, from the formula that had taken the Ducks to four straight BCS bowls.
From the blatant disregard of time of possession, the playbook being used, the in-game play calling, to music selections in practice — the routine was far from broken. So why would anyone change it?
It was reasonable to predict a downturn in rushing production in 2013. First and foremost was losing the 1-2 punch of LaMichael James and Kenjon Barner in consecutive seasons — both of whom are currently on NFL playoff teams — would be difficult to replace. Combine that with the fact that new head coach Helfrich and new offensive coordinator Scott Frost were both ex-quarterbacks, perhaps Oregon would stray from the run game that had made up 65% of the offense under Kelly.
They would instead lean on more the outstanding accuracy of Marcus Mariota and throw the ball more often. Recent recruiting successes and hiring a nationally acclaimed receivers coach in Matt Lubick from Duke to coach them, seemed to solidify a new emphasis in the passing game.
On the defense, expectations were high for one of the deepest groups of defensive lineman in recent history and a crew of proven playmakers as defensive backs, but the linebackers were going to be a bit of a question. After all, the team had lost it's two leading tacklers in Michael Clay and Kiko Alonso, and also veteran sack specialist and team leader Dion Jordan. Few, if anyone, knew it would also be the final season for long time defensive coordinator Nick Aliotti.
So how did the preseason questions get answered? With all of games now in the books, let's take a look back at four areas that both shaped 2013 for the Big Green football team, while also breaking the mold of previous seasons.
Airing it out
Whether it was by design, due to personnel changes or determined by the defenses they faced, Oregon indeed threw more passes in Mark Helfrich's first season than they ever did under Chip Kelly. A look at Mariota's season stats shows the difference that led to breaking multiple school and conference records in passing categories.
2013: Mariota – 245/386, 3665 yds, 63.5%, 9.5 y/a, 31 TD, 4 INT, 167.7 rating. Passing accounted for 41% of offensive plays.
2012: Mariota – 230/336, 2677 yds, 68.5%, 7.97 y/a, 32 TD, 6 INT, 163.3 rating. Passing accounted for 35% of offensive plays.
The 2013 team was effective running the ball, as a team they rushed for 6.3 yards/att and 3,556 total yards. Led by Byron Marshall's 1,038 yards and 14 TD, the three primary backs, including DAT (594 yds, 8 TD) and Tyner (711 yds, 9 TD), all rushed for an identical 6.2 yards per carry, and Mariota added 715 yards and 9 TD. While Oregon distributed the load more evenly this season, Oregon rushed for far less than in 2012, when they racked up 4,098 yards and 48 TD.
As a result, Oregon also had their most yards in a season from a wide receiver ever in Josh Huff who caught 62 passes for 1,140 yards and 12 TD.
Teammate Bralon Addison had 61 receptions for 890 yards and 7 TD, both becoming the first and second receivers since Jeff Maehl to have more than 500 receiving yards in a season.
Yards Per Play
While total yards were most all time, and yards per play were almost a full yard more in 2013, touchdowns and number of plays regressed.
Year YPP TYds Plays (Pass/Rush) TD
Overall, the Ducks had more turnovers than any of the previous three seasons, and forced opponents into far fewer than last season. The 6 interceptions (4 by Mariota) in 2013 are a four-season low, but the 30 fumbles is far too many, even if five or six of them came during a monsoon vs Cal.
2013 Ducks: 6 int 30 fum – 36 total / Opp: 17 int 22 fum – 39 total
2012 Ducks: 9 int 27 fum – 35 total / Opp: 25 int 25 fum – 50 total
2011 Ducks: 7 int 24 fum – 31 total / Opp: 17 int 23 fum – 40 total
2010 Ducks: 9 int 26 fum – 35 total / Opp: 21 int 26 fum – 46 total
Tackles For Loss
The aforementioned departing linebacker trio of Michael Clay, Dion Jordan, and Kiko Alonso combined for 34.5 tackles for loss in 2012. Taylor Hart and his 11 TFL would be back in 2013, but no other Ducks had posted more than Boseko Lokombo's 4.5. As a team, the 2012 Ducks listed 83 tackles for loss and 28 sacks.
In 2013, Oregon managed to replace the 28 sacks, but the tackles for loss dipped to 70, or one fewer per game. The 2010 team that played in the BCS National Championship game had 97 tackles for loss, the 2011 defense had 45 sacks. While a one-per-game average may not seem overwhelming, opposing teams were given 232 opportunities to convert third downs this year compared to 196 in 2012. That one extra tackle for loss could have been the difference between a 3rd-and-1 versus a 3rd-and-long, giving the defense more chances to get off the field in crucial situations.
In all, the Ducks showed change this season, and change isn't always bad. While this year's team improved in some areas, there are so many areas in which they can rachet things up on offense and defense, even including other important details, like finding a way to reduce a head-sctratching 106 penalties.
If Oregon maintains a balanced attack and can improve in a few key areas in the second season under Mark Helfrich, the Ducks have a good chance to carry on the unstoppable reputation that was earned under Chip Kelly.
