Jungfraujoch match report
Bert writes:
Some years ago, one of this site's regular correspondents set what I imagine he thought would be an all-time altitude record for match reporting. He claimed that the match was taking place at an altitude (and I quote) of 3,500m.
Now there is something rather strange about this, don't you think? What are the chances of that altitude being exactly 3,500m? Given that there are 100 possible combinations of digits for the final two places, what are the chances of them being zero-zero? In other words, what are the odds of this one thing happening out of 100 chances? I've done some calculating, and I can tell you that the odds are less than one in a billion, which is therefore zero.
What this means is that the reported altitude of 3,500m is almost certainly a rounding (or as it is also known, a lie). Now nobody would round down, so it is virtually certain that the actual altitude was less than 3,500m. Given that there are far more numbers less than, for example, 3,465m than there are between 3,465m and 3,500m, the odds heavily favour the actual altitude being lower than 3,465m.
So, to business. I've just been on my holidays, and I took this photo of Kapil Dev playing cricket at the Jungfraujoch, at an altitude of 3,466m. This is therefore the new altitude record for cricket match reporting on this website. Thank you very much.
Kapil Dev, being an international captain of much experience, had elected to bowl on a fairly green wicket. In a rather unusual move, he had set a field comprising almost entirely of extremely short mid-ons and mid-offs. John Embury was clearly finding it difficult to find his rhythm with such a field, as can be seen in this photo of him playing a rather flat-footed straight drive when nobody is bowling.
Chris Broad also played, hitting a six onto the glacier at one point. The six-over match was won by one of the teams – the one who scored more runs than the other.
Er, what else can I tell you. Oh, I know, Farokh Engineer was also playing. As were some other people.
Now I know that reporting of actual cricket is frowned upon in these parts, so some of you might have found the last few sentences somewhat disturbing. But never fear, because strictly speaking what I actually took was a photo of a photo of Kapil Dev playing cricket at the Jungfraujoch in August 2009, on a poster in the visitor tunnels. In 2009 I was on holiday in the Lake District, but I would certainly have been following the match closely if I'd known about it. In fact, I do recall having a vague feeling of slight cold one afternoon, which with hindsight can only have been due to a psychic connection with the crowd in the Berner Oberland.
These details in no way invalidate the altitude record, which is mine forever.13 Appeals
Yorkshire v Middlesex – Scarborough match report
Bananarama Monkey-Face writes:
I'm originally from Pickering, so I always get very excited when I come up to North Yorkshire with Mum, Dad and brother Hippity. All the more exciting this time, because Mum and Dad had arranged, as part of their trip, to go to t'cricket at Scarborough for t'day.
It was first time for Mum and Dad, Scarborough cricket, but Hippity and I had been before some years ago, to report on a match for MTWD. I must warn you, if you click on that MTWD link, you might read stuff actually about cricket.
Mum and Dad were going to be all poncey in t'pavilion and that for most o't'day, so Hippity and I said we'd stay on t'bed in t'hotel. But once Mum and Dad set off for t'ground, we hot-footed it using a short cut across t'beach, got to t'ground before them and secreted ourselves in t'sizeable crowd. We could get home before t'oldies same way, so they'd be none t'wiser.
Local folk in Scarborough are incredibly friendly and made us feel very welcome. There were lots of other youngsters there – school holidays had just started – so Hippity and I didn't look out of place.
Towards t'end of t'day's play, quite a lot of people from t'crowd left, apparently because t'local guest houses tend to serve tea (that's dinner to you snobby southerners) on t'dot of six-thirty. A swarm of local seagulls saw their opportunity and swooped in to scavenge t'scraps, over-running large swathes o't'outfield. For a while, seagulls stopped play, as t'umpires tried to get t'players to clear t'gulls, with only limited success. I think this photo will be allowed on King Cricket, as it was taken during that break in play. Anyroad, I don't like rules and think that you'll all like this picture.
Once t'umpires realised that t'gulls were staying for t'evening, they decided to resume play despite; soon after that it really was time for stumps.
Mum and Dad were in a cracking good mood in Scarborough before t'cricket and an even more cracking good mood after it – all of us were. We'd all thoroughly recommend a day of county cricket at Scarborough – it's t'dog's bollocks.

T20 World Cup final match report
Tom writes:
I sort of watched the T20 World Cup final. Here is roughly what happened.
A motley crew of myself, and myself's pals William, Lottie and Millie assembled at my house for the purposes of watching something approximating cricket. This was convenient for me as it is closer to where I live than any of my comrades' dwellings. However, I do not have Sky television and thus do not have the channel briefly known as Sky Sports Ashes, now referred to as Sky Sports 2, which broadcasts international cricket.
After much deciding it was decided that we would decide how to decide how to watch the cricket over lunch. I have the good fortune to live opposite a very nice pub called the Highwayman, so we went there to eat. They didn't have Sky either. The Highwayman doesn't have a TV – it's not that sort of pub.
Three of us had roast beef and; I shan't name any names, but Millie had something off the regular weekday menu. We ordered extra roast potatoes. Always order extra roast potatoes.
We returned to my house, thus far puddingless, to indulge in some fruit pastille ice lollies. ESPN Cricinfo reliably informed us (mainly just me and William) that fifteen overs of the first innings had already been bowled and that some runs had probably been scored. This meant, for unobvious reasons, that it was time to take my housemates Teasle and Moppet – who happen to be dogs – for a walk. We just went for a quick one up the road, because Teasle cut her paw recently and we didn't want to aggravate the injury.
When we returned from the walk, we decided that it was such a nice day that we would have a drink in the garden. We had a drink in the garden (each, not between us). Between sips, the significance of the offside rule to cricket was explained for the benefit of some.
At the end of the day, some people went home, some people didn't, and some people were already at home. I think Barcelona won after Kevin Pietersen scored the winner.

England v Sri Lanka at Lord's Day three match report
Ged writes:
When Daisy and I go to a day of international cricket at Lord's these days, I apply for seats in the Lower Compton or Lower Edrich, as Daisy likes to hide from the sun. These seats are relatively unpopular with the county members, so we tend to get seats pretty close to the front of that stand, where the seats are just fine for both of our tastes.
I made a similar picnic to that for the lads' outing on the previous day, including the remainder of The Lord's Throdkin and two types of Banh Mi sandwiches – one small sandwich each traditional Hanoi style, with the remainder of the char siu from yesterday; another small sandwich each "Lord's Banh Mi" style, using the remainder of the Iberico streaky bacon, with mustard mayonnaise rather than sweet chilli sauce mayonnaise. Only at Lord's.
At lunch, Daisy and I went for a stroll round to the MCC members' side, where you get a higher class of floor piss in the gents' toilets and a higher class of soap in the hand wash dispensers. On leaving the toilet, I ran into Johnny Friendly, an MCC member whose family are all clients of Daisy's. Delighted to learn that Daisy was with me that day, we three gathered for a chat.
"What do you think of the cricket today?" asked Daisy.
"I've hardly seen any, frankly," said Johnny. "I was playing real tennis for most of the morning session. Have you ever seen real tennis?"
"Yes," I said. "At The Queen's Club".
"No," said Daisy.
"Would you like to see some?" asked Johnny.
"I can think of nothing that would give me more pleasure," said Daisy, sliding effortlessly into Jane Austin-style language for the occasion.
So within seconds we were sitting in the viewing area of a real tennis court, having the game explained to us patiently by Johnny Friendly. After about ten minutes of this, Daisy displayed her ability at Jane Austin-style manners by exclaiming: "This is so wonderful, I think I could delight in watching real tennis rather than cricket all afternoon. But we must allow you to return to your business, Mr Friendly. Thank you so very much indeed for your kindness." (Or words to that effect.) Only at Lord's.
We had a bunch of beer-spilling posh boys in front of us – similar in many ways to the beer-spilling posh boys I had suffered behind my group the day before. Today's posh lot had also been mixing Champagne and beer to clear ill effect on their full-beer-skiff-balancing-skills. At least this time it wasn't my party but some other poor victims (a rather sweet, elderly couple as it happens) getting systemically soaked in beer.
The sweet couple were charming with gentle reproaches to the posh boys. "Please try not to spill the beer over us again this time." The day three posh boys were at least polite and apologetic to their victims and weren't talking so much rubbish about the cricket. They also had more staying power than the day two posh, sticking around all day.
Towards the end of the day, a few people in the Lower Compton, including our posh boys, produced some beer skiff snakes, much to the frustration of the stewards. Compared with Old Trafford and Edgbaston, these beer skiff snakes were pathetic in their length and potency, but that didn't stop some enterprising rascals commissioning a couple of young kids to "run the snakes" to frustrate the stewards, which was genuinely funny for a while. Nor did it stop the stewards from (idiotically) calling the police in at one point. Once that excitement had died down, the posh boys in front of us attempted a skiff snake with their multitudinous empty Champagne-flute-skiffs, with predictably hilarious results. Only at Lord's.

England v Sri Lanka at Lord's, day two match report
Ged writes
"I've been a complete idiot," said Big Al DeLarge when he phoned me on the Monday before the Test match. "I wrote the date down in the diary but not on the wall chart. My assistant has booked a holiday and I simply cannot take that day off now. I'm furious with myself and so sorry."
"Don't worry about it, Al," I said.
But I had promised the Lancastrian nephew-in-law, Escamillo Escapillo that he wasn't to be the token northerner – Big Al hails from Burnley – and I wasn't so confident that I could drum up a replacement. I sent an e-mail to King Cricket in the hope that he might fancy a day at HQ and be able to come at short notice, but (as I suspected) he did fancy such a day but was otherwise engaged.
As good fortune would have it, in the gym the next morning I ran into Jim Hawkins, with whom I have discussed cricket for the twenty-or-so years we have both been going to that place. I know he is self-employed, so I thought he might well be up for a day at Lord's on the off-chance. He was free – problem solved – except for the fact that Jim is not a northerner.
"You'll be sitting with a strange assortment of folk," I said. "Me, my old friend, Charley "The Gent" Malloy and the Lancastrian nephew-in-law, Escamillo Escapillo, who was hoping for the company of a northerner, so you might be a bit of a disappointment for him."
"I love Test cricket at Lord's," said Jim. "I'd sit next to Hitler if need be."
"I don't think Test cricket would have quite been Hitler's bag," I said. "I can't imagine The Führer getting the idea of playing for the draw towards the end of five days of battle."
I had planned some culinary delights because Big Al loves his food – indeed by his own admission he can be "a bit cheffy". So I had made the Lord's Throdkin for this match and also produced some Hanoi-style Banh Mi sandwiches, as Big Al tends to like my take on oriental food. In any case, Daisy and I were also going to the match the next day and both ideas had the legs for two-days-worth of picnic.
The grub all went down very well with the lads. Escamillo-Escapillo remarked that his only previous encounter with throdkin had been gloopy, which he didn't think would work as picnic food.
Sitting behind us were some idiotic posh boys, talking rubbish about the cricket and getting incredibly drunk, incredibly early in the day. They had brought several bottles of Champagne, which presumably were gone by the first drinks interval, at which point they switched to buying beer.
Much of the beer they were buying during the second hour, they somehow contrived to spill over our feet and bags, but plenty was surviving and going down their throats. It was a very hot day and we were exposed to the sun in the Upper Compo. I wondered how the posh boys would cope with a whole day of such excess. Answer – they returned after lunch briefly and then disappeared for the rest of the day. In short, they couldn't cope.
Our group was certainly not quitting early, although Jim Hawkins got the call from his girlfriend around the time that stumps were supposed to be drawn and withdrew gracefully. The rest of us saw out the whole day and finished the last bottle of red as the sun set behind the Warner Stand. Bliss.

Sam's wedding cricket match report
Sam writes:
They say organising a wedding is one of the most stressful things in life. Whoever they are, they have obviously never tried to stage a cricket match the following day.
Having completed the marital formalities and danced Saturday night into Sunday morning, friends and family gathered at my village club for a cobbled-together 15-over thrash. Fiercely competitive as ever, bride and groom acted as captains.
At 2pm we had about 18 players between us, some willing and some cajoled, of all ages from 7 to 82. There were four 'proper' cricketers who we hoped might hold things together if it all threatened to go a bit Wirrall CC.
Following a refreshments emergency – in the flurry of confetti and champagne the clotted cream had been left in the marital fridge – my wife won the toss and chose to bowl. I sent best man Oliver in to open with wicketkeeper Martin, as they were our only two batsmen of note. I could tell because they both had full kitbags. They even had helmets – not strictly necessary given the plastic ball.
Such was the inexperience of most other players, we agreed that the umpires would turn a blind eye to wides and no-balls. A good thing too – if strict league rules had been enforced we might still be out there now. Despite the bowlers exploring what was later generously described as "an unplayable line", we made a good start before Ollie was stumped, fishing for one which rolled down the corridor of uncertainty on the adjoining strip.
Young Billy went in at three. Billy never said a word to me all day, but did everything I asked of him without complaining. Think Jimmy Anderson in an oversized helmet and without the sulky attitude. The young man's unerring commitment to the cause was soon to prove his undoing.
Fancying a bit of a hit myself, I took the captain's prerogative and called Martin in on 39. Personal milestones have no place when victory is as stake, as my hero Michael Atherton will tell you. Graeme Hick might disagree.
I managed to connect with a few agricultural hoiks, wary of my double-jointed brother's spitting cobras and careful to keep my back foot planted with my dad ready to pounce behind the stumps. Keeping the family tradition alive, Billy drove a ball straight back to his mum Alice. Keen to get the strike, I yelled 'yes!', quickly followed by 'no!' and a lunge back to safety. But Billy had dutifully set off on the first call and we were now face to face. The perplexed lad was told he had to go, done up like a kipper by his skipper. Memories of Strauss v Hussain at Lord's flooded back. Maybe it will be the making of the kid.
The missing clotted cream had arrived and been correctly placed between jam and scones.
A more welcome sight was that of club stalwarts Zac and Tom strolling up for an afternoon net. I seized on them to bolster the line-ups for the second innings, a decision which would come back to haunt me.
Our ringers were no doubt perplexed by this motley crew of odd characters. My number five batsman Kate was dressed as a dog (I still don't know why), and several small children wandered around the square throughout, either putting themselves in funky field placings or trying to find their way back to the pavilion. Billy's little brother Joseph fielded for a few overs before stomping off with the words 'I don't even like cricket!' We all knew exactly how he felt.
Tom opened the run chase with my wife's uncle Kev, child-sized pads strapped to his hulking frame. He was soon trudging back, caught and bowled by Ollie. My dad, who played a good standard of club cricket once upon a time but now turns out just once a year, took the game away from us in a second-wicket stand with Tom.
Another family anecdote was forged as I bowled a rank long hop and dad pulled it hard straight to my octogenarian grandad at backward square leg. Luckily grandma had already left, but the thought of what she would say if he returned home with a nice round bruise on his bonce awoke his reflexes. He ducked and watched the missile race away for four.
I eventually got my old man, another short ball scooped to safe hands Zac on the boundary. My brother followed, caught close in, and suddenly we had a chance. I went on the attack, placing Ollie at slip. An edge went straight to him. He dropped it. I was fuming. Luckily the wedding had already happened, or I might have been looking for a new best man.
They say the first rule of marriage is learning how to lose. We had been man and wife for about 24 hours, but the post-match handshake and trophy presentation felt like a sign of things to come. I'm already plotting anniversary revenge.

England v Sri Lanka – throdkin report
Ged writes:
"Am I to be the token Northerner?" asked the Lancastrian nephew-in-law, Escamillo Escapillo, viz our impending visit to the first Lord's Test of the 2014 season. "Not at all", I replied. "Big Al DeLarge is originally from Burnley".
But that got me thinking, what with Big Al being so fond of fine food – by his own admission he can be "a bit cheffy" – I'd need some imaginative ideas for the picnic. And what better, with two of our party being big-eating Lancys than to try cooking King Cricket's recommended dish – throdkin.
Now here's the thing. Try finding an actual recipe for throdkin on the web. The Wikipedia entry for throdkin provides clues, but not a recipe. Indeed, I could find no actual recipe for the dish anywhere on the web. Some chat, but no recipe. I decided, from the clues, that throdkin is a form of baked oatmeal with bacon, so found a recipe for that and adapted it a little. My first attempt was gloopy, salty, only slightly sweet and impractical for cricket match picnic purposes.
The next thing that happened was bizarre and coincidental. A client of Daisy's recommended that she buy some Iberico streaky bacon from Lidgates for a posh carbonara pasta. Daisy went mad and ordered a kilo of the stuff. It made an amazing carbonara, by the way, but we needed no more than half a kilo for the pasta dish. "I'm having the rest of that bacon for the Lord's throdkin," I said, explaining my plan. Daisy thought I had taken leave of my senses, but a workable recipe for a throdkin-like delicacy was starting to form in my brain.
I switched my culinary thinking from "a variation on a theme of baked oatmeal" to "a variation on a theme of oatmeal cookies" and guessed, correctly, that I could find plenty of US recipes for bacon oatmeal cookies. I experimented with some ordinary bacon and one of those recipes. Big tick in the box for simplicity, good texture and basic flavour, but the cookie was insanely sweet using the recommended quantities of brown sugar and white sugar in the cookie, plus icing sugar and maple syrup on top of the cookie. With that sort of sugar rush at breakfast each morning, no wonder American kids grab guns (readily accessible in all good US homes) and cause havoc with them on a regular basis.
But I had figured out the idea now. Daisy tasted the sweet cookie and agreed that a poshed up, less sweet version of that recipe would work. She just wanted nothing to do with it other than the eating.
Thus, "The Lord's Throdkin" was fully formed. I saw everything that I had made, and, behold, it was very good. So here it is: Ged Ladd's recipe for The Lord's Throdkin.14 Appeals
Middlesex Second XI v Essex Second XI at Radlett
Ged writes:
It seemed like an excellent plan when the idea was hatched. In the absence of first class cricket between Middlesex and Essex for the foreseeable future, Charley "The Gent" Malloy and I would take in a day of second XI cricket between our two teams. As luck would have it, the day that suited me and Charley for this cricketing purpose also suited Daisy and Mrs Malloy for an evening meal at the Daisy House. Charley and Mrs Malloy had still not seen the house, although Daisy has now been in situ there for nearly three years. The Malloys were especially keen to see the garden.
The only problem with that superb plan was, of course, the English weather. As the appointed day approached, the forecast got worse and worse. Indeed, the night before the event, I wrote to Charley saying, "not even my relentless cricket-watching optimism imagines that we'll get to see any cricket tomorrow. Let's take stock in the morning just in case, but I'm going to spend the rest of this evening building an ark and guess that I'll see you tomorrow evening at the house!"
It was pouring down when I woke up on the day and the forecast suggested that it would pretty much rain all day. I did a bit of work and sorted out some of those domestic things I never normally quite get around to sorting out unless/until they are emergencies. Naturally, just before I set off for the house in the early evening, the rain stopped and the sun even started to peep through.
At least the better evening weather enabled us to show Charley and Mrs Malloy the garden in the sunshine. In preparation for the day at Radlett, Charley had bought a cricketing gingerbread man, which we admired for its aesthetic but all decided not to eat.
Instead, we enjoyed Daisy's superb Alaskan salmon baked in a banana leaf, with new potatoes, home-made tartare sauce and leaf salad.
After dinner, I played my baritone ukulele. Charley and Mrs Malloy listened like aficionados at a music concert – a little unnerving given the novelty of my hobby and my general lack of dexterity. "You don't move your fingers quite as much as, for example, Albert Lee did at the concert we went to the other week", said Charley. "Shhh, Charley", said Mrs Malloy, who then joined in when I sang I Guess It Doesn't Matter Any More. Charley stifled his coughing a couple of times and I saw tears welling up in his eyes at the sound of Leonard Cohen's Suzanne and Neil Young's Out On The Weekend.
Then Charley said: "I read a review of the latest Neil Young album the other day; it said that Young now sounds like an old man in a retirement home singing to himself before medication time." I took that comparative comment as a great compliment.

Middlesex v Lancashire in the County Championship – match report
Ged writes:
Over Easter, the Lancastrian nephew-in-law, Escamillo Escapillo (EE) and I schemed to meet up for the Middlesex v Lancashire fixture at Lord's this year, even if we could only manage half-a-day off during the working week.
In the flurry of subsequent e-mails and texts, I said that I could do day three (Tuesday) and he agreed wholeheartedly that the afternoon of the 12th would be splendid. So we agreed to meet at the Grace Gates at 3.30pm, entirely unaware of our miscommunication.
So, on the Monday afternoon, I was quietly minding my own business when I received a text from EE: "At the gate – where are you?…"
"…elsewhere – we agreed day 3 tuesday, no? – really sorry – cannot get there today…"
"…and I cannot get there tomorrow, might be good for wednesday though – depends on work"
"yes – should be fine for me – try for that," I texted.
That Monday evening, Daisy remarked that such a diary confusion was a pretty poor show, "coming from two seemingly competent businessmen." I thought that was a bit rich, given that she and the niece, Lavender, two seemingly competent professional women, are constantly getting their meeting times and locations messed-up.
By good fortune, my working week was, for once, really quite rejiggable. Equally by good fortune, it turned out that we'd have seen little (rain-interrupted) cricket, had we met up on either Monday or Tuesday afternoon. Wednesday, however, was set for glorious weather. By not such good fortune, though, Escamillo texted me on Wednesday morning: "No chance of cricket today – big deal on – see you saturday".
So I wandered over to Lord's on my own with a good book and some journal papers to read. I found a very quiet spot in the pavilion for the morning session. Sky had erected its camera platform on the middle balcony slightly to one side, leaving just a few unwanted seats on the wrong side for this match – north – right beside the Lancashire players' balcony. No-one else would choose to sit there. The book was about the financial/money system and whether alternatives might be better. Given the mess we're in, "better than the current system" seems a fairly low benchmark, so I think the answer is yes, although some of the suggested alternatives were quite daft.
After lunch, when the shade hits even that north side of the pavilion, I wandered around to the Mound Stand to continue my cricket watching and reading there in the sun. I ran into one of the old diehard fans who used to be a regular "Middlesex Till We Die" (MTWD) reader/contributor back in my day. We chatted a bit – agreeing that neither of us have visited MTWD for years. We also chatted about the internet radio commentary, which the nice fellow said he doesn't like much because they chat about all sorts and don't focus enough on the cricket. I thought about recommending the King Cricket match reports to him, but decided against.
I thought about returning to the pavilion as the end drew nigh, but it was so pleasant sitting in the early evening sunshine in the Mound Stand, I decided to stay put and make a speedy exit once stumps were drawn.
Escamillo and I got some serious ribbing from Lavender and Daisy about our temporal mishap, when the young couple came around for dinner shortly after. I tried to get my own back by playing my rendition of And It Stoned Me by Van Morrison on the baritone ukulele, but it must have been a truly beautiful sound because it brought tears to young Lavender's eyes. Escamillo Escapillo suggested that I try some Oasis numbers instead. Typical.4 Appeals
Alastair Cook opts for the end urinal
Dandy Dan writes:
I recently met Price for a few beers for the first time since my rather glorious night of drinking with the England cricket team. The glory has somewhat been tainted by the events in the winter, but hey ho.
Anyway, I obviously wanted to talk about it again. I said to him my only regret was not actually having a chat with Cook instead of just sharing a nod at the urinals. Price wanted to know why I didn't even say hello. I told him that there was loud music in the toilet and that he had come in and gone to the end urinal.
This displeased Price. He is firmly of the view that the England cricket captain should have enough alpha-male confidence to stride into any toilet situation and take the urinal closest to the middle, not one at the end.
Now I'm not sure I agree with him 100 per cent, but I can certainly see where he is coming from. There have been a couple of moments recently where Alastair has not demonstrated 'pissing in the middle urinal' captaincy. For example, in the first Test, he should have said: 'Sorry Gary, I know it's a ton at Lords but I'm going to declare and have a few overs at them tonight'. But he didn't. He didn't piss in the middle urinal.
We're certainly going to be looking for examples of pissing in the middle urinal captaincy for the rest of our lives, and examples of where it should have been applied too. If I ever have the chance to meet Mike Brearley, I'll mention it to him. He might want to include it in a revised edition of The Art of Captaincy.15 Appeals

Elton John, Kanye among Bonnaroo headliners
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - The eclectic trio of Elton John, Kanye West and Jack White will headline this summer's Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival.
Organizers announced the lineup for the June 12-15 festival Wednesday night. As usual, it offers a bit of something for everyone.
Sir Elton will be attending his first Bonnaroo, while West will be making his first return after one of the most memorable appearances in 2008. That year he made fans wait nearly two hours for his early morning set, which didn't start until 4:30 a.m.

VH1's popular T.I.& Tiny: The Family Hustle reality series is becoming a franchise. I've learned that the cable network has greenlighted a spinoff show from The Family Hustle, whose fourth season returns on Monday. Tentatively titled Weave Trip, the eight-episode series, now in production, stars T.I.'s wife, Tameka "Tiny" Harris, and her hairdresser friend, Family Hustle standout Shekinah Jo. The duo decide to open a mobile hair salon in Los Angeles and get a salon truck built in their hometown of Atlanta. Tiny and Shekinah then proceed to drive it across the country from Atlanta to Los Angeles. I hear Weave Trip, said to be in the vein of The Simple Life, is slated to air in October, following the conclusion of Family Hustle's fourth season. The series is created and executive produced by the Family Hustle team of T.I. and Tiny, 51 Minds' Christian Sarabia, and Category 5's Brian Sher and Stella Bulochnikov. Family Hustle is one of VH1 strongest unscripted series, with its current fourth season opening to 2.24 million viewers and 1.53 million adults 18-49 in April.

Beaverton, OR, United States
"Scalzi writes another winner/it's really different"
Listening to the first hour of so of "Redshirts" I was sure it was just another funny story, full of sly humor and sassy one liners that make me laugh the way "Fuzzy Nation" and "Agent to the Aliens" did. When I heard about the book on Scalzis blog and read the beginning paragraphs I was sure thats where it would go-and I'm fine with that. I love his fun novels. Everyone needs a laugh at one time or another. Except for the head banging "He Said", "She said" dialogue that Scalzi writes (which seems to drive we audiobook listeners bonkers), the start of Wil Wheatons reading of Scalzi's new novel led me to believe I'd laugh the evening away.
Then it got a bit serious. Funny, still, but serious with a strange twist that had me totally amazed at the concept. I had to rewind a chapter here and there because I was sure I'd missed something. I wasn't getting it all. As the novel got deeper into the left hand turn the plot had made, it didn't lose it's fun jauntiness but it did gather even more unexpected sober, tough thinking adding plenty of "I never thought about that before" to the plot .
Character development is ...well..odd because Scalzi has developed his main protagonists along a couple of different lines. Pathways I had never considered in many years as an SF reader and viewer (and listener even). It's good character development...we know the protagonists- we have known them for years, even decades of Star Trek and they never seem to change..but these characters are sharper, more developed and very clever when they analyze their situation aboard the Universal Union Capital Ship "Intrepid", flag ship of the galaxy. They have a captain who is completely J.T. Kirkian in attitude and language, a ships engineer, doctor...in fact all the standard characters we have gotten used to seeing-including new ensigns wearing red shirts. The ones who die on away missions.
I don't write spoilers so all this sounds vague but I want to encourage listeners to stick with the book through the irritating dialogue then listen carefully to the next few hours.
As for the Codas,I think they add to the book. I don't know how else Scalzi would have added the information..it wouldn't have fit into the body of the novel. And though it isn't really vital information it is lore that adds to the novel and incases our knowledge of the characters. Some reviewers on the Amazon site discounted the codas entirely. I think they are part of the book and it's an interesting way to insert this data into the book.
This is a book for SF lovers, Star Wars/Star Trek fans, ComicCon goers and generally those of us who grew up with Heinlein and Roddenberry, with Ray Bradbury (who passed away today at age 91) and Rod Serling, with Neil Gaiman and Isaac Asimov.
Scalzi fits in with all these guys, especially the early Robert Heinlein YA books, though theres nothing YA about "Redshirts".
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
"Interesting premise"
An off track idea that could have been developed much more fully, this is a real soft read.
The story arc is lacking in cohesiveness to a large extent. I made a huge error by listening to the 3 Prequel short stories after I'd listened to the main story and they added absolutely nothing..
I didn't hate it and it's better than MEH-Average, but not spectacular.
"Prequel - not a stand alone short story"
Maybe worth the couple of bucks it cost, this 40 minute prequel is fairly blah. I purchased all 3 prequels after I'd heard the story and frankly, it is a waste of money by them. Listen to them first if you plan on listening to The Returned.
"So so prequil to The Returned"
Maybe worth the couple of bucks it cost, this 40 minute prequel is fairly blah. I purchased all 3 prequels after I'd heard the story and frankly, it is a waste of money by them. Listen to them first if you plan on listening to The Returned.
"A s0-so shortie prequil"
Maybe worth the couple of bucks it cost, this 40 minute prequel is fairly blah. I purchased all 3 prequels after I'd heard the story and frankly, it is a waste of money by them. Listen to them first if you plan on listening to The Returned.
"Somewhat juvenile but still entertaining"
Appropriate for a 10+ year old to listen, the story of the early 1960s in the south brings a lot of emotion into this story arc. I loved it and think my 10 year old grand daughter will also get a lot out of the story. If anything, it will bring up points to discuss about the strife between blacks and whites, it takes place around the beginning of the equal rights strife.
Starla is a young woman who wants to find her mother. Starla believes mom is a famous singer in Nashville and after messing up at home, where she lives with a crabby grand mother. Starla decides to walk 600 miles to find her mother.
As the story progresses, the listener is introduced to a number of wonderful black characters, especially strong black women, who direct her towards the successful life she is seeking.
As someone who was an equal rights activist during that period, I can relate to the situations and incidents author Crandall brings to this thoughtful story.
This isn't a trashy young adult novel but is appropriate for young adults who are interested in this period of American life.
I recommend it highly.
"Excellent Novel-Recomended"
I enjoyed this story so much-ther plot was effective and there weren't any holes that I couldn't fill.
Julis Whelsn is a wonderful narrator, though her mens voices aren't very good, she brings great feelings to the story. Her diction is sharp and emotion is drawn from the story arc that brings the reader/listener tino the plot.
No spoilers here....you need to listen to it to understand the issues that are brought out in this story.
I enjoyed the book very much and highly recommend it to readers/listeners who enjoy tension and a bit of mystery in their reads.
It's not great literature but it is a wonderful listen and superior 4 star book and narration.
"Young Male Adult type of Science Fiction--Mediocre"
The begging of my young adult grand son to listen to this led me to purchase it for our road trip.
If you're not of that age, or if you're a woman who enjoys good kick ass SF-don't bother with this series.
Full of mediocre sex scenes, the protagonist, James McGill sleeps with every woman he meets. Plus he is so unrealistic when it comes to being in a military outfit that it's absolutely silly...NO MORE Larson for me. My grandson paid me back for this book so I'm not out any money at least..apparently it's perfect for juvenile minds-but there is so much better in this type of military SF out there..John Scalzi's "Old Mans War' comes instantly to mind.
Buy that instead
Big wow.
Don't bother with this series.
"Sophomoric Young Adult semi Si Fi"
I can't understand the 5 stats..is it just because young twenty somethings like the juvenile sex scenes? The almost super hero attitude that James McGee, boy mercenary, exudes via B V Larsons first book in the 'Undying Mercenaries'?
Whatever it is, get real reviewers! This is non scientific, unrealistic juvenile Si Fi thats got little actual entertainment value.
I've never been in the military, but I worked for a big multi national corporation and even in that world, someone who is as out of step with his superiors wouldn't be promoted-much less even kept in the business or service. He argues with his superior officers constantly, defies orders and goes off on his own. Great if one is an independent mercenary such as Jack Reacher or John Rain or even a local county sherif like Walt Longmire but no, James is a grunt newly..canon fodder really. With a BIG MOUTH.
Yet his continual bucking of orders gets rewarded! In any military he would be discharged with poor references.
And the constant bed jumping..ah yes, just what a 22 year old wants to read. McGee gets any girl, then leaves. Every time. And these women are not written well..they are paper thin surface creatures while McGee is written large.
Boyett does an ok narration-not superior but it goes with the tone of the story line.
The plot is fairly good..at least there is a beginning, middle and conclusion..the book stands on its own feet and you don't HAVE to buy the second in the series-which if anything is worse that this one.
There is much better Science Fiction out there-look for it.
"Perfect for a horny 20 something male"
I purchased this 2nd episode in the Undying Mercenaries series at the frantic request of my 22 year old grandson. We listened to the first novel on a long road trip and he wanted the second for the trip home.
The first one was basically a young adult/teen script. the men were heroes, the women were plastic se objects of hard assed bi$ches. No regular strong women. Sadly it gets much worse in this second volume.
Great for a 20 something with no real idea of what an actual woman is like, Larson writes his female warriors as surface characters..which is really sad. The protagonists, James, sleeps with any and everyone..and even if the women complain about his male ho attitude, he simply shines them on...this isn't what I want my young adult grand kid to be like at all! I realize this is a comic book in audio form but really, can't Larson endow some of his female characters with an actual personality? The closest he came was to the native woman (who he screwed of course) who showed some guts...but not much.
I can't recommend this for actual adults..or for women who are the least bit sensitive to ranting masochistic writing.
I'll get the third boo for my grandson..so figure 22 is a good average age/maturity for a man who might appreciate this series.
The plot is fairly good...the narration is fine. My complaint is the writer. I guess I know not to count Larson in as a SiFi writer I can appreciate.
"VERY sexy Lesbian moments-be prepared"
WOW can Eisler write a killer woman with woman sex scene. If this isn't your thing, I suggest you avoid this novella length supplement to the John Rain series.
The story was a great one and sex wasn't the only thing it was based on..a good plot line and we got to know the new character fairly well.
Enjoyable if you enjoy reading a sexy book...not much more than a Nora Roberts book but more explicit IMO.
A shortie..don't spend a credit on it..just buy it.

Beautifully made, these tables are great. DCT 9 measures 900 x 600 x 50 mm, and DCT 12 is 1200 x 600 x 50 mm.. Perfect for camping trailers, or tent camping.. most of our 4WD drawers come with this table built in… the steel adjustable legs can go from about 500 mm high to about 850 mm high, which is almost bench height. Very sturdy laminated ply top, this table will last forever...
The new drifta bedside table, fits pretty much any camper, sets up over the end of the mattress, for a great storage area. 1600 x 300 wide, 60 mm high when folded, can be set up from 300 to 500 mm high... legs fold up underneath.. fully carpeted...
The DSB is designed to sit alongside the pull out kitchens. It slides very easily on the simple polyethylene skids. It comes with one set of Drifta legs, so it can be pulled right out for easy access to gear. It now also comes bootlined ( like a thin marine carpet, the same as they use on the draw systems ).
- Height: 430 mm
- Length: 1500 to 2100 mm
- Width: 650 to 700 mm
- Weight: 15 kgs
This is a little tucker box, and is part of the set for the package deals. Makes a great box for food, as it has a lockable lid so animals can't get it. Also has airholes in the side. It has the plastic skids on the base, to protect the timber, and rope handles with a plastic covering.
- Height: 430 mm
- Length: 400 mm
- Width: 480 mm
- Weight: 3 kgs
The big advantage of the DFSD, is that it helps to split up the area inside the trailer. The drawers can be easily accessed while the trailer is folded up, or it can be pulled out and made into a really handy bedside table inside the camper. See setting up for more details.
- Height: 430 mm
- Length: 1150 mm
- Width: 460 mm
New !! fully bootlined, with lockable flush fitting catches.
This is a little tucker box, matching the DCB in height and width, just half the length. It can be custom made to any length really. Makes a neat set, having the kitchen and storage/tucker box matching. The bootliner is a great material, as it is soft, quiet, won't get scratched or scratch other gear packed around it. Also other gear packed against it won't rattle.
- Height: 290 mm
- Length: 400 mm
- Width: 460 mm
- Weight: 5 kgs

David Crosby admits that "she's so show business." But something happened when the Byrds and CSN legend saw Lady Gaga at this year's MusiCares event. Crosby says he came away with a completely different opinion.
Gaga wouldn't have seemed like a breakout-star-in-the-making that night, when you consider who else was on the bill as Carole King was feted that night — including Steven Tyler of Aerosmith, Sara Bareilles, Miranda Lambert and Alicia Keys. James Taylor was also there.
"I completely dismissed her," Crosby tells the Hudson Union Society. "I was like, 'Oh, Christ, another flag waver. This is pure surface, no substance' — which is traditional now in the United States."
Then Lady Gaga took the stage, in all white: "And I watched her sing this song," says Crosby, who released a well-received new solo album before returning to the road with Crosby Stills and Nash. "We were honoring Carole King, and she was singing 'You've Got a Friend' — the most popular Carole King song of all time. And she was singing it to Carole. And, man, that girl can actually play and sing and write. She's real — though she must be as weird as a snake's suspenders."

Severe Reaction to Rabies Vaccination
Here we go again. Lily had a severe reaction to her first adult rabies vaccination. It was a strange one for sure. She developed hives several hours after the vaccination. I called the Vet and he wanted to see her right a way. I only live 5 minutes from the office and by the time I got her into the office she had just stopped breathing. They were able to revive her and she is doing great now. They kept her at the hospital overnight and she came home today. From the time I saw the first hives and the time she went into anaphylactic shock was at most 15 minutes.
This is the third dog in 30 years that has had a rabies vaccination reaction, but this one was by far the worst. The other two were almost immediate reactions while we were still in the office. After the first one 30 years ago I always insisted that if vaccinations were due, they were done at least a week apart so we would know which had caused the reaction.
I know that there are some first time dog owners here and I just wanted them to be aware of this possibility. I know that it is rare for these reactions, but they do happen. For us, it has never happened with their puppy rabies vaccination, but it has always been with their first adult rabies vaccination.
We are lucky that she is home now and cuddled up with her Lucy and Ethel.
Doxies are one breed that is known to be prone to reactions. Usually reactions occur at a repeated incident, not at the first. Sometimes switching brands of vaccine helps, but I wouldn't give another rabies vaccine without some antihistamine and steroid first now.
Also, spacing vaccines by 1 week is not recommended. The next vaccine should be given at least 2 weeks after the first, even if they are different vaccines. The body is still mounting an immune response to the first vaccine after one week, and may not mount a protective immunity if vaccinated again 1 week later. I prefer to space vaccines by 3 weeks.
I'm so glad you were diligent and took Lily immediately back to the vet when you noticed the problem, and now she is safe.
As a brand new owner of a rescued doxie, thanks for the heads up. I've had mine a month now, but he had all his vet work done in W.VA where he was found. When he is due for his next shots, I'll remember this. I'm giving Frontline next week to all my pets . Will the Doxie have a reaction to that? He supposedly had this treatment when rescued.
Ugghh.. it's a given that my Mocha will have a seizure the day after a rabies vaccine. In our state, it is law that it has to be done every year. In fact, the dog registration in TN is tied to the rabies vaccine -- your rabies tag is your dog registration.
I reeeeeeally hate that. Even worse, most (if not all) groomers require vaccines for all pets they groom. They require proof of vaccinations. That means I can't get Mocha shaved or bathed in the summer without that proof. I've tried to go the route of titers and tried to get him "ommited" due to his epilespy from a vaccination requirement from the state to no avail. I think it sucks but we're stuck.
We've come to the conclusion that he'll have a seizure whether we give the vaccine or not at least every 4 months. Thus, we time it so we're "home" right after he gets his yearly vaccine. We also try to time his grooming at *11 months*. That way we can go almost 2 years without having to get him rabies vaccinated.
I should add that I DO understand why its required. In TN I vividly recall when someone dropped off a litter of kittens outside a school in our town a few years ago when I worked at the shelter (actually 5 yrs ago).
Those kittens DID have rabies. Every child that handled those kittens at the grade school had to undergo a series a of rabies shots. Rabies is very alive and active to this day.

Can I fudge on freezer bags?
Hi there,
I'm in the midst of my first ground beef plan. I started out with about 20lbs of ground beef, and I've only got one dish left to go!
So, now that I'm ready to start throwing this stuff in my freezer, I'm trying to find a way to skimp on freezer bags.
Will it be okay if I pack all the items in regular ziplock bags, and then slip them inside freezer bags? It seems like a silly question, but I'd hate to see anything go to waste.
I was hoping that then I could keep the freezer bags on the outside, and reuse them easily.
Also, will rubbermaid style containers help cut down on the smells leaking out? My mom used to have these thick, white plastic containers that she got from the restaurant business. Is something this heavy duty required, or will regular rubbermaid help keep the garlic and onion stinks inside? :-)
Thanks for the help!
The freezer bag idea sounds like it will work just fine - just so long as the freezer bags are on the outside, of course. :-)
As for the smells, are you talking about smells in the freezer, or hanging on to the container? I always had a problem with the smells leaching into the plastic when using tupperware or rubbermaid stuff (then when you clean it, the dish still smells). I bought some of that new glad ovenware stuff, and it is *wonderful* - smells don't stick, stuff can go straight into the oven, easy to clean - I really like it (and now I can't find anymore, so am bummed out).
I also like just using aluminum foil pans (the cheap ones) -they aren't as easy to clean, but they work very well for rice-based cassaroles, etc. Another thing I've heard of is freezing everything in different containers until they're solid, then taking them out and wrapping them in tin foil for storage.
Congrats on your freezer full of food! Sounds like you've been busy today (I cooked last burger last night - 5 dishes in the freezer!). :-)
My mom never owned a freezer bag. And I don't always use them. I save breadbags, potato chip bags, plastic grocery bags, cottage cheese cartons etc. I double wrap everything.The surface that touches your food should be food safe. For example, plastic grocery bags are fine for the outer wrap but never the inner wrap. Recently I froze four dozen beef and bean burritos. I made them small, and packed them two to a sandwhich bag (after freezing on trays). I put these baggies into a bread bag. Six burros to a bread bag. Then I twisted the bread bag just above the burros and folded the bread bag back over itself.
I tied the packages shut with yarn. We'll use them up over two months.
I get freezer bags at the dollar store--they're not quite as thick as name brands, but they're not too bad. Generally I freeze in deli containers that I buy at the bar/restaurant supply store--50 for about $6. They come in half pint, pint, quart sizes and the lids are all interchangeable. Oh, and I, too save all those cottage cheese, margarine and other containers.
I haven't bought a freezer bag in a long time. I save the box-liner bags that come with cereal, crackers, etc. They are thicker than freezer bags. I love them! I use them for so much - freezer, cheese, etc.
I even have some that I folded into sections lengthwise and made little slits about every centimeter. I made several rows of these. I use these for produce. I got the idea from those bags leaf lettuce comes in. They work as well as those Ziploc produce bags with the little holes in them which you cannot find anymore.

Exclusive instruction based on classroom series fails to equip students with appropriate fingerings and bassoon-specific techniques, but succeeds in establishing music as a life activity and relating performance aspects to music theory, music and world history, and audience interaction. Contrary to this, exclusive instruction via bassoon methods enables students to be more technically proficient, but does so in a musical, academic, and oftentimes expressive vacuum. The most viable and highly recommended solution is to use both approaches simultaneously by participating in school band programs and taking additional private lessons. This, however, results in issues with the compatibility of skill and concept sequencing, creating gaps in student learning. With the goal of bridging these pedagogical gaps, this document explores current literature treatment of the following areas: introduction of new pitches in relationship to assumed range and metric and rhythmic complexity, treatment of bassoon-specific half-hole and venting techniques, and emphasis on comprehensive musicianship. The document concludes with a new method design to fill the gaps with a supplement to standard classroom curriculum. Ultimately, this new method serves as a "just for bassoonists" companion text to the current leading texts for the first year of beginning concert band programs. To align contemporary bassoon pedagogy and sequencing and multidisciplinary approaches found in heterogeneous instrumental group classes, this method analyzes overarching goals of classroom curriculum and backward-designs bassoon instructional material to work toward those same goals. Through this approach, bassoonists and their teachers will avoid many of the aforementioned frustrations, and the bassoon can become as approachable and accessible a beginning instrument as any other member of the woodwind family. 2015-03-31T00:00:00Z Inventions on the Keyboard Chen, Phyllis http://hdl.handle.net/2022/19707 2015-03-12T16:30:25Z 2015-03-12T00:00:00Z Inventions on the Keyboard Chen, Phyllis 2015-03-12T00:00:00Z Assessment Practices of Applied Music Studio Faculty in Higher Education Dunford, Jeffrey Roy http://hdl.handle.net/2022/19706 2015-03-12T16:30:23Z 2015-03-12T00:00:00Z Assessment Practices of Applied Music Studio Faculty in Higher Education Dunford, Jeffrey Roy The purpose of this quantitative study was to understand the assessment practices of applied music studio faculty in higher education. Potential respondents (N = 19,723) were listed as applied music faculty in The College Music Society's Directory of Music Faculties in Colleges and Universities, U.S. and Canada, 2012 – 2013 and were asked to participate in an online survey. Respondents who completed the survey comprised a response rate of 8.89% (N = 1,754), with 2,123 (10.76%) participants answering at least one question. While the response rate was low, comparisons between the proportion of respondents and potential respondents indicated a high degree of representativeness among the population categories. The findings of this study are grouped and discussed in two central themes: (a) assessment criteria and instruments actually used in the implementation, execution, recording, and reporting of the assessment practices of studio faculty, and (b) influences on assessment practices. Assessment criteria found to be used by respondents included both achievement and non-achievement criteria such as: (a) attendance and punctuality, (b) attitude (participation, effort, leadership, etc.), (c) written assessments, (d) performance assessments, (e) practice assessments (self-recorded). Results regarding how assessment policies are disseminated and applied are discussed. Results indicating the influences on assessment practices include: (a) Former teachers' influence on the development and implementation of ones assessment practice, (b) The demographics of the applied music student population itself including degree type and level, (c) Adoption of a standards-based curriculum, (d) The education received by the applied music instructor, and (e) How upper administration and / or department heads monitor or guide assessment. In general, results indicate that in many instances there exists a definite need for further reflection, improvement, and development of assessment policy and implementation within the applied music studios of our colleges and universities. 2015-03-12T00:00:00Z THE STANDARD SYMPHONIC REPERTOIRE FOR TIMPANI AND PERCUSSION: CUSTOMIZED TECHNIQUES AND DETAILED ANALYSIS OF EACH EXCERPT Ito, Kumiko http://hdl.handle.net/2022/19668 2015-02-26T17:30:26Z 2015-02-26T00:00:00Z THE STANDARD SYMPHONIC REPERTOIRE FOR TIMPANI AND PERCUSSION: CUSTOMIZED TECHNIQUES AND DETAILED ANALYSIS OF EACH EXCERPT Ito, Kumiko 2015-02-26T00:00:00Z

UCLA officially names Mike Johnson OC
Former San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator Mike Johnson will be UCLA's new wide receivers coach and offensive coordinator, head coach Rick Neuheisel announced Saturday morning.
Johnson will replace Norm Chow, who was hired as Utah's offensive coordinator Saturday. Former wide receivers coach Reggie Moore was fired in December. Moore earned $130,000 for the 2010 season, meaning that position coach salary could be folded into Johnson's salary.
More On UCLA
For the latest news on UCLA, check out ESPN Los Angeles' blog on the Bruins. Blog
"Mike is a great addition to our staff," Neuheisel said. "He has a background with a multitude of offensive schemes, has coached several different positions and has experience in our conference as well as in the National Football League. In addition, Mike is a dynamic and tireless recruiter who is familiar with the Pac-12 area and, in particular, southern California. He will be a great plus for our program in this important area."
Though Johnson's involvement with UCLA has been widely rumored the past two weeks, he did not officially sign employment papers until the middle of this week. He has since taken and passed the NCAA-mandated recruiting test, met with several Bruins players on campus, and gone out on the road recruiting for UCLA.
Johnson, 43, spent two seasons (2009-10) with the 49ers, coaching the quarterbacks. He took over the offensive coordinator duties early in the 2010 season. In 2010 the 49ers ranked No. 18 in the NFL in passing yards (209.8 per game), No. 18 in yards per pass attempt (7.2), No. 19 in rushing yards (103.6) per game and T-No. 17 in yards per carry (4.1).
He also worked with Neuheisel when both were on the staff of the Baltimore Ravens.
"Now that I'm here I'm excited," Johnson said. "I hope to develop an offense that can be diverse both running and passing and make sure that we marry the two and detail it."
Neuheisel also announced that he would be taking over as quarterbacks coach -- a position also formerly held by Chow -- and that he would be more involved with the day-to-day operations of the offense.
"I'm going to go back to what I've done," Neuheisel said. "When you're not doing things as well as you like, one of the things we all do is go back to our comfort zones and my comfort zone is coaching those guys. I'll live and die with it, as they say, but I know I can coach these guys and I know I can coach them well."
Chow agreed to a two-year extension worth approximately $1 million in July, but it had not been prepared for him to sign until the middle of December. That extension wasn't set to kick in until his previous contract expired on Feb. 14.
Instead, he will return to his alma mater, which ironically joined the new Pac-12 Conference for next season.
Chow's departure ends an era that began with much fanfare in December 2007 as Neuheisel convinced both Chow and defensive coordinator DeWayne Walker to join his staff when he was hired as UCLA's coach.
But Walker left after one season to become New Mexico State's head coach and Chow failed to jumpstart UCLA's offense in his three seasons as coordinator. UCLA ranked 99th in total offense and 104th in scoring in an injury-plagued 2010 season.
"I think we've always had good coaches, I think we've always had good people, but sometimes the chemistry of the staff isn't exactly right," Neuheisel said. "Dysfunction is probably too strong a word, but when it's not functioning at the highest level, it leaks down into the program.
"I, at the conclusion of the season, looked around and tried to make the necessary adjustments and those are sometimes painful."
Johnson, who is from Los Angeles, served as the 49ers quarterbacks coach in 2009 and offensive coordinator in 2010. He played collegiately at Arizona State and Akron.
He then played five years of professional football, in the World League and Canadian Football League.
The relationship between Johnson and Neuheisel goes back to their time as assistant coaches for the Ravens in 2006 and 2007. Neuheisel was the team's quarterbacks coach in 2005-06 before being promoted to offensive coordinator in 2007, and Johnson was the wide receivers coach.
UCLA famously switched its offense to the Pistol in 2010, something Johnson said he was not yet committed to keeping around on a full-time basis.
"I'm a believer that you look at the personnel you have and then you develop an offense around the people," Johnson said. "There's plenty of knowledge in the room to develop that. As the personnel changes then maybe the offense changes."
The Pistol helped revamp a UCLA running attack and the Bruins averaged 175 yards rushing per game, but their passing attack ranked No. 116 out of 120 Football Bowl Subdivision teams.
"We need to marry the passing game to make the Pistol, the Spread -- whatever offense we call it --become effective and score points," Johnson said. "Football plays to me are football plays. You can put a label or name on any of it. It's about execution."
Meanwhile, UCLA will interview former Miami head coach Randy Shannon for its vacant defensive coordinator position on Sunday, according to a source familiar with the situation. Neuheisel wouldn't confirm any of the coaches who have interviewed for the defensive coordinator position, saying only he's interviewed "several" candidates who were "highly qualified and highly interested."
He said he hopes to have a decision by national signing day, which is Feb. 2.
"I look forward to having that decision as quickly as is possible," Neuheisel said. "But I can't go so fast as to not be exactly right."
He said he took the same approach with the offensive coordinator position, which is why it took until now to make an announcement when it had been rumored since before last season ended that Chow would not be back on the UCLA staff.
"It was important to take the necessary amount of time and do due diligence in putting together what I think will be a winning combination," Neuheisel said. "I've been working to try to put back together what I think will be a formidable staff."
