alternate headline: man does job
Hokepoints Is Apparently In No Hurry
There were a lot of things that went wrong on Saturday, and some things that went better than you would think from the 31-0 score. Like when David Price lost a 1-hitter this summer, it required consistent failure in high-leverage situations.
Tempo does a few things for an offense. You lose the huddle but keep tired defenders on the field and force them to commit to a vanilla personnel group against everything you run. You also give yourself a chance to survey the defense and adjust. Saturday's problems were much larger than slow tempo, but I couldn't let this…
…happen (the above resulted in a timeout, as the Wolverines only got to the line with 4 seconds on the clock) without seeing if there was a pattern.
The thing that bothered me during the game is it seemed Michigan was damaging themselves by taking a looooong time to get to the line of scrimmage, which not only limited their total opportunities to come back, but apparently forced Gardner to rush his reads in key situations, to awful effect.
So I went through the game and tracked how many seconds were left on the play clock whenever Michigan's offense arrived in their alignment. Data are here if you wanna play with it. The results: here's the success rate of the offense this week by the amount of time on the clock when Michigan got in their formation:

I used the different colors to show the plays in blue where they're subject to the 40-second clock. The two on the far left forced Michigan to burn timeouts. This does show tendency but not that success came from it except when they were extremely slow. When Michigan couldn't line with more than 9 seconds on the clock the results were two burned timeouts, three negative yardage plays, and five positive ones.

Monday Presser 9-8-14: Doug Nussmeier
Can you talk about some of the positives you took away after watching the film?
"Well, you know, I think when you look at the football game and you say, 'Okay, what were the things that we can take out of this game?' I thought we were prepare to play. I talked to our guys about [how] the preparation was right. We were prepared. You look at the first drive, we move the ball down the field the first two drives and unfortunately were unable to convert but the preparation was right. We've talked a lot about what we're doing to prepare for games and right now we've just got to play smarter, we've got to play more disciplined and we've got to execute better."
What does this offense need to do to regain the consistency and solidity it had against Appalachian State and what did Notre Dame do to break down what you built up in the season opener?
"Well, I wouldn't say that anything got broke down. The same thing I talked about a week ago; we're still in the infancy stages. We're still learning to play consistently and I'll continue to hit on that because, like I said before, we play well in stretches and it showed in that game. You could see where we'd get movement, we'd create things, we'd move the ball and then we'd lack that consistency and that's going to be a growth process and it's something that we work every day in practice on and we continue to talk about it's about eleven guys on every play doing the right thing. You just can't play, when you play a quality opponent like Notre Dame- if it's ten guys doing the right thing and one guy doing the wrong thing you're doomed so we've got to get eleven guys on every play doing the right thing."
Can you talk about what you've seen out of Devin Funchess in the first couple of games, but beyond that the production you're expecting from those other guys when Devin gets the attention that he inevitably will.
"Sure. Devin's done an outstanding job. I talked about that before. We moved him around and his ability to process the information, to move into the slot, to move back out by himself, then to have the tight end with him, that's a lot of information. People don't realize how difficult that is and that should tell you a little bit about his mental makeup and the other side of Devin Funchess, not just the athletic side that you see. He's done an outstanding job with that.
"That being said, you could see in the game that there are other guys on this team that can make plays. Dennis Norfleet did a nice job for us, made some plays for us. Amara Darboh, Jehu Chesson. We're still looking at some young guys to stand up and develop. Freddy Canteen, we're trying to get Freddy going a little bit so we're trying to not only let Devin do what Devin does but also develop that corps around him."

Monday Presser 9-8-14: Brady Hoke
News bullets and other items:
- Hoke will tell us if someone is out for the year. That's about all you can expect as far as injury updates go.
- Graham Glasgow is taking snaps at center and right guard.
- Hoke thought the team prepared well last week.
- He emphasized red zone defense and finishing drives as the two areas that most need to improve.
- Matt Wile and Kenny Allen will compete for kicking duties.
Opening statement:
"Thanks for coming. You know, as far as where we're at as a team, we went back to work yesterday and the attitude and how our guys have stayed together, the leadership throughout the team has been awfully positive. I like the work ethic and I still like the work ethic from a physical and mental standpoint. You always evaluate where you're at and what you need to do and what could you have done differently and we've done that. We've talked about it from coaching staff-wise, from player-wise. Preparation was awesome throughout the week. It was as good as I've been around. Preparation in Michigan City at the hotel was awesome. Feel very good about our football team in a lot of ways. We've got to prepare. We got to execute a little better but as far as where this team's at I'm excited. We understand that our goals are still out there and now we've got to turn to Miami and be back at home with our students and the Michigan fans and go back to work."
How does the defensive approach have to change when you lose some key people like out of the secondary? I think you talked about when you can press man and when you had to back off of that.
"Well, I do think you've got to know your personnel. Number one, you want to make sure you put your personnel in positions so that they can be successful. In the second half we played more zone and from a defensive standpoint there were some things that we need to be tighter on. Some technique issues that we've got to clean up. Sometimes that happens when guys gets in certain environments where your fundamentals and techniques are everything. I thought we lost that and some of that is the environment that you're in. You either speed up – and I think we did that a little bit because of that or you just lose your fundamentals and techniques. So to answer your question yeah, you look at it and you change it a little bit."
Talk about having Jake Butt back and what his ceiling is. You look at his tools and where his ceiling is; where might he go?
"Well, you know, Jake was kind of a gametime decision in some ways and didn't play a lot of snaps but we'll see how he progresses. I think we're going to be very cognizant of where he is from a physical standpoint and what's too much. We do the same thing in practice, what's too much and what's not. The technology today with some of the GPS things we're into teaches a lot and you learn a lot. Health and wellness issues are part of that and talking about Jake is making sure we are doing the right things with him."
Talk about his…
"Well, we think he's a very good football player. He ended up last year very well. I think he's learned a lot and he's one of those guys who is on the leadership council that isn't afraid to, even though he's a young guy, speak his mind and give his true reactions and feelings."
Talk about some of the positives and the improvement in the run defense.
"Well, the front seven I thought he did a pretty good job from that standpoint. Guys that we rotated throughout in the middle of the defense, I think they were aggressive. I thought they were gaps sound. I think Willie [Henry] may have had the most production of all of them but he and Ryan [Glasgow] as a group in there, I thought they did a nice job. That was a physical offensive line and so we got to take from what they did last week into this week and improve upon that."
Devin Funchess- we saw him leave the game and come back in. How's he doing?
"He's fine. I'm not going to talk about any injuries but he's fine."
Did he workout and everything yesterday?
"He was in the building yesterday, yeah."

Lemons And Serendipity
There is no GIFs post this week, because hell no, so instead I'm taking the opportunity to write about lemons and health and whatnot. If you're looking for the video of Brian finally fulfilling the terms of the Bolden/Morgan lemon bet, click here. Below is me eating a lemon for entirely different reasons.
I have an odd way of stumbling into life-changing events.
My first "real" writing job came when I responded to a thread on The Wolverine's message board announcing they were looking for an intern, despite my only qualification being a couple years of blogging on a site I created on blogspot. They hired me, for some reason, and from that point forward writing about sports went from hobby to potential profession.
I landed my job here eight months after graduation. I'd done nothing to find another job, instead writing on the blog I'd created while at The Wolverine and hoping someone would notice. In the span of a few short weeks, Tim Sullivan got hired by The Wolverine, TomVH got hired by ESPN, and I found myself in the Michigan Stadium press box covering a weather-shortened game against Western Michigan.
In the interim, I'd been diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, which appeared to explain many of the myriad health problems I'd experienced since the latter half of high school. Eventually, I'd write about dealing with CFS as I spent the better part of a year working from my bed in my parents' house. I did my best to write about it positively and within the framework of sports, because facing the realities of having a debilitating illness with no proven cause or cure is scary and depressing, as is the prospect of openly discussing it with a rather large audience.
Writing how I actually felt—depressed and scared, mostly, of the reality of my situation and whether it would get better and whether I could keep this job and whether I should date anyone and whether it would ever be safe to have children because the best my CFS specialist could tell me was "use a condom and it should be fine"—was not something I could face head on, and I was genuinely distracted from that pain by Michigan's wonderful basketball team, so I chose to focus on that latter bit.
I began to feel better enough this summer that I once again began the process of moving out of my childhood home, this time to a townhouse in Ypsilanti with my brother and one of his co-workers; my brother does an amazing job of providing support, and I still would be living close enough to home to keep that support system intact and available. At some point, I needed to begin real life, whatever that is, and trying to do that from my parents' house wasn't very easy, as you can probably imagine.
As I prepared for the move, I saw my physician for a routine checkup in July. Outside of my immediate family and closest friends, I trust this physician—who from the outset had been wary of my CFS specialist, who is as much a researcher as a doctor, which has its positives and its considerable negatives—more than anybody I know. Two hours after I'd left the doctor's office, I got a call from him. It was after 6 pm. The office had closed at 5.
He'd been going back through my medical records, and noticed that six years ago something in those records indicated a potential gluten allergy, and in the whirlwind of doctor's visits that led to my CFS diagnosis this had slipped through the cracks. I immediately began to research gluten allergies, and what I found explained so much: symptoms I'd stupidly attributed to "well, I have an illness about which little is known, so this probably just that," rather serious symptoms at that, were listed with eye-opening accuracy to my real-life symptoms on any site or forum I visited.
I cut gluten out of my diet immediately, even before undergoing testing for celiac disease—celiac tests are notoriously unreliable and don't cover the full spectrum of gluten allergies, so the best way to find out if I had a gluten issue was to see if my symptoms improved while going entirely gluten-free. They did. Confirming our suspicions, I began feeling more acute symptoms on the (many) occasions when I'd accidentally "gluten" myself—a strong signal that gluten is, indeed, the problem.
This has been life-changing, to say the least. Instead of dealing with an illness with no known cause or cure and little funding for research to change that, I'm dealing with a food allergy, and while the solution involved cutting more foods out of my diet than I ever could've imagined, there was a solution.
This brings me, in a very roundabout way, back to Brian's lemon bet, and strange coincidences. I'd been trying to figure out a way to write about this for the last month or so, once I was pretty certain that gluten, not CFS, was the real problem for me. When Brian didn't initially eat the damn lemon, one of our dedicated commenters, WolverineDevotee, started a Twitter hashtag: #EatALemon. I clicked on it. I never click on hashtags.
When I scrolled down, I eventually stumbled upon a link to a Facebook post by an organization called FARE—Food Allergy Research & Education—containing this video. It's a nine-year-old boy named Luke, inspired by the Ice Bucket Challenge, eating a lemon to raise awareness for life-threatening food allergies:
As you can see in the video at the top of this post, this in turn inspired me to do the same—how could I not after stumbling upon this? In the last couple months, I've just begun to realize the prevalence and danger of food allergies, and how difficult they are to manage.
The stats are here, and they're frightening: around 15 million Americans—and one of every 13 children—have a food allergy of some sort, and while I'm lucky enough that mine hasn't had more severe consequences, many of them can be outright deadly. The consequences for me eating gluten-contaminated food, at this juncture, are migraines and fatigue that last a day or two. The consequences for people like Luke can be far, far worse.
Perhaps the biggest issue is the one I faced. According to the National Foundation for Celiac Awareness, 83% of Americans with celiac disease are either undiagnosed or wrongly diagnosed with another condition, often the type of autoimmune illness with which I was misdiagnosed. The average time to get a correct diagnosis is 6-10 years. I'm about average in that regard, and lucky to be properly diagnosed at all.
So I have this platform, and I'd like to use it for some good. Whether or not you'd like to film yourself eating a lemon and posting it on the internet—it's really not that bad!—I hope you'll consider donating to FARE.
I have an additional request, as well. While I've been lucky enough to have a change in my diagnosis, my father still deals with CFS, a disease for which research is woefully underfunded. I've witnessed my dad act as a guinea pig for experimental treatment for over two decades, and the rollercoaster of symptoms he's had as a result. Simmaron Research is doing what they can to get even the most basic research for CFS funded and underway, and I hope you'll consider giving to them, as well. Any little bit helps.
I'm doing better now, though the early stages of dealing with a previously untreated allergy can be difficult; I'm still doing my best just to not contaminate myself on a daily basis with mixed (though improving) results, even though I've eschewed any attempt at eating out in favor of preparing all my food myself, while making an extraordinary effort to keep my part of the kitchen separate from my roommates'. While my energy and ability to think clearly is improving by the week, I'm still woefully underweight—at 5'10", I've weighed in the 125-to-130-pound range for the last two years—and eating anywhere but in my own home is a major obstacle.
But I know what I must do, and that's an incredible development compared to where I was a few months ago, when my treatment boiled down to get some rest and hope. I'm hoping, by raising whatever awareness I can about my situation and countless others', that more people can make a similar discovery.
Lemons up.*
*Since I plum forgot to do this in the video: Seth, BiSB, and Bryan Fuller, consider this a formal challenge.
I Learned How To Put Myself In A Box A Long Time Ago
9/6/2014 – Michigan 0, Notre Dame 31 – 1-1
[Bryan Fuller]
I set a new record for earliest departure from a Michigan game Saturday: 10 minutes and change, besting the 2007 Oregon game that I left with about six minutes left. And I feel… okay, I guess.
Ace and I did the podcast Sunday and it's actually kind of good. This is a far cry from previous podcasts in the aftermath of doom. The Alabama one was barely worth recording, and we knew it at the time. This one runs down the suck but there's a jaunty air and no one seems like they're taking the bar exam after a 72-hour bender.
We are used to it. And hey, man, Michigan outgained Notre Dame. I know we lost 31-0 but that was nowhere near as emasculating as that aforementioned Oregon game or the 2008 Ohio State game in which Brandon Minor was the only Michigan player who looked like he was in college instead of high school or last year's Michigan State game in which Michigan acquired –48 rushing yards. Or maybe it was but we can't tell because our football testicles have been ground away by the sandpaper of the last seven years and all we feel is increasing smoothness.
Yeah man.
Oh man. This feels really smooth.
I can't even remember why I didn't want this bit between my legs to be so flat you could try to set a land speed record over it.
I don't know, man. You only have one thing to base predictions of the future on: the past. And the past suggested that Blake Countess was a pretty good cornerback who couldn't cope with Tyler Lockett. It didn't look like that on Saturday night. It looked like Tony Gibson was in town again.
Notre Dame built its unassailable lead on a series of man press-type coverages on which ND would break to the inside unmolested without a Michigan cornerback even there to tackle on the catch. That is a recipe for disaster. With Raymon Taylor knocked out and Channing Stribling burned just like Countess was on his first play, Michigan had no choice but to throw Countess out there again. He promptly ended up yards away from Will Fuller on the fade all the inside stuff had set Michigan up for.
Countess had six interceptions as part of a pretty good pass defense a year ago and while that was a passive zone thing you kind of figure that guys capable of doing that will be capable at man coverage.
That was emphatically disproven on Saturday, throwing the entire offseason into question. The deck chair shuffling of defensive coaches touted as the path forward now looks ludicrous.
- you're going to give your defense an extreme makeover based on pressure and man-to-man coverage and
- you rearrange your coaching staff so that your new cornerbacks coach is a guy who has never played or coached the position before and
- then your corners are a complete fiasco in their first real test, then
people are going to think that's a bad idea man.
By all accounts Roy Manning is a terrific recruiter and enthusiastic, dedicated coach. He's just not a secondary coach. That kind of random insertion at position X is something lower-level (like, DII) schools do because of limited resources. Michigan found itself in that position because…
I don't actually know. That was not a rhetorical pause.
Best as I can figure, Hoke loathes firing anyone. For most of last year it was expected that Borges would return because those were the vibes the program was emanating, and the about-face there still has conspiracy theorists asserting that Brandon made him make the switch. Approximately 80% of emails to me this offseason were some variant of FIRE DARRELL FUNK FERGODSAKES, and it's hard to imagine many programs sticking with the offensive line coach after that.
Meanwhile Hoke's standoffishness with everyone outside the program is increasing daily. Everyone inside the velvet rope is golden. Everyone on the outside is garbage. The bunker mentality is suddenly warranted, at least.
Getting blown out 31-0 by Notre Dame is a gamechanging event. You can feel it in the nonsense decisions Hoke made in the second half. Michigan played turtle ball that saw Michigan run 35 seconds off the clock between snaps in the middle of the third quarter; they left Funchess and Gardner in the game deep into the fourth quarter. Let's look like we're trying without actually doing so. Make it look good for the boss.
Gardner ended up taking a lethal cheap shot on the final snap, and no one in a winged helmet seemed to notice or care. That was eerily reminiscent of the hockey team a couple years ago when Mac Bennett was the recipient of a dirty hit at the end of a 5-1 blowout at the hands of lowly BGSU. No one responded, and it was obvious they were cooked.
Hoke talks about toughness constantly, but when asked to defend their quarterback they walked away, to a man. Maybe that's Taylor Lewan's fault too.
This program has a real knack for blaming the people who aren't around anymore for its current failings. Let's detail those real quick: Michigan is 3-7 in their last ten games with wins over Indiana, Northwestern in three overtimes, and Appalachian State. Brady Hoke was 16-4 with Denard Robinson as his starting quarterback and is 11-9 since, excluding the Nebraska game he went out of. Michigan has one road win over a team with a winning record, that over 7-6 Illinois in 2011. The trajectory is not good.
This is a breaking point. Either Michigan comes to Jesus, or they break. It was at this moment that Michigan hockey turned to Andrew Copp, a freshman, because it was clear no one else had any of that leadership stuff, and charged towards respectability. They ended up short, but it was better than that BGSU game in which they couldn't muster a third-period shot until 15 minutes in.
There's time yet to salvage something, Lloyd Carr-style, but little reason to believe such a thing is possible. One thing's certain: we are running out of people to blame other than the ones in charge.
From the ND perspective, not that there's any other possible:
MGoVideo has the Michigan version of events.
Brady Hoke Epic Double Points Of The Week. Devin Funchess (#1) was real good at catching the ball, especially that one time they targeted him downfield at the end of the third quarter.
#2 Willie Henry was a key component of a run defense that held Notre Dame to 72 yards, sacks and whatnot excluded.
#3 Ryan Glasgow was also a key component of that run D.
Honorable mention:
Epic Double Point Standings.
6: Devin Funchess (#1, APP, #1 ND)
2: Devin Gardner (#2, APP), Willie Henry (#2 ND)
1: Ryan Glasgow (#3, ND)
0.5: Kyle Kalis (T3, APP), Ben Braden (T3, APP)
Brady Hoke Epic Double Fist-Pump Of The Week.
For the single individual best moment.
Honorable mention: Nothing.
Epic Double Fist-Pumps Past.
AppSt: Derrick Green rumbles for 60 yards.
ND: Nothing.
MARCUS HALL EPIC DOUBLE BIRD OF THE WEEK. Other than everything it has to be the fourth-and-three conversion on which Countess was nowhere to be found. That led to an ND touchdown that opened the margin to two touchdowns.
Honorable mention: Matt Wile misses two field goals to end longish drives and put Michigan in a hole. Gardner has Chesson wide open 20 yards downfield in front of his face, holds the ball, and gets annihilated, fumbling. Countess torched on a fade.
PREVIOUS EPBs
AppSt: Devin Gardner dares to throw an incomplete pass.
ND: Countess nowhere to be found on fourth and three.

Article: What is the next step for gastric atypical epithelium on histological findings of endoscopic forceps biopsy?[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Gastric atypical epithelium on endoscopic biopsy is borderline lesions between benign and malignant. Definitive management of this lesion remains debatable. AIMS: We aimed to analyze the final histological diagnosis for atypical epithelium on endoscopic biopsy and to examine the discrepancy rate between the final histological diagnosis and the initial endoscopic assessment. METHODS: This retrospective study finally enrolled 24 cases proven atypical epithelium on initial histology of an endoscopic biopsy. Of 24 cases, endoscopic submucosal dissection (n=22), operation (n=1) and follow-up biopsy without endoscopic submucosal dissection (n=1) were performed. RESULTS: Of the 24 cases, early gastric cancer (n=15, 62%) and adenoma (n=7, 30%) lesions were finally diagnosed in 22 cases. Age, sex, endoscopic results and number of biopsy did not significantly influence the result of final outcome. Between the initial endoscopic assessment and the final histological diagnosis, 12 cases (50%) showed a concordant diagnosis, but eight (33%) and four cases (17%) showed upgraded and downgraded diagnoses, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Of atypical epithelium cases, the rate of malignant and premalignant lesions was 92% and it was difficult to distinguish between malignant and benign lesions using the initial endoscopic findings. Therefore, endoscopic submucosal dissection can be considered in patients with atypical epithelium on endoscopic biopsy.
Article: Clinically distinct characteristics in patients younger than 40 years old with non-cardiac chest pain[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Little is known about non-cardiac chest pain (NCCP) in young patients. We aimed to examine the proportion of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in young patients with NCCP compared to the average-aged NCCP patients and to evaluate their symptomatic characteristics and the clinical efficacy of a 2-week proton pump inhibitor (PPI) trial. Ninety-six patients with NCCP≥1/week were classified into the young-aged (≤ 40 years, n =38) and the average-aged groups (>40 years, n=58). Typical reflux symptoms were assessed. The patients were defined into a GERD group and non-GERD group according to reflux esophagitis on esophagogastroduodenoscopy and/or pathologic acid exposure on 24-h esophageal pH monitoring. Then the patients were treated with 30mg of lansoprazole bid for 14 days. Nine patients (23%) in the young-aged group and 22 patients (38%) in average-aged group were diagnosed with GERD-related NCCP (P=0.144). The proportion of typical reflux symptoms was higher in the GERD group compared with the non-GERD group in both age groups. A PPI test improved symptoms in the GERD group irrespective of age, but this improvement was not observed in non-GERD group. In young NCCP patients, the prevalence of GERD was relatively low compared to average-aged NCCP, but the difference was insignificant. The PPI test was very effective in diagnosing GERD in the NCCP patients in both age groups. Therefore, in young NCCP patients, if there is a negative response to a 2-week PPI trial, the possibility of extra-esophageal disease origin needs to be considered.
Article: Prospective, randomized, back-to-back trial evaluating the usefulness of i-SCAN in screening colonoscopy[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The newly developed i-SCAN application can theoretically maximize the effectiveness of colonoscopy. However, the practical usefulness of the i-SCAN application during screening colonoscopy has not been assessed. To assess the efficacy of the i-SCAN application during screening colonoscopy. A prospective, randomized trial that used a modified, back-to-back colonoscopy. Academic hospital. This study involved 389 asymptomatic, consecutive, average-risk patients who underwent screening colonoscopy. The patients were randomized to the first withdrawal with either conventional high-definition white light (HDWL group; n = 119), i-SCAN contrast/surface enhancement (CE/SE) mode (i-SCAN1 group; n = 115), or i-SCAN CE/SE/tone enhancement-colorectal mode (i-SCAN2 group; n = 118). All patients underwent a second examination with HDWL as the criterion standard. The primary outcome measurement was the adenoma detection rate and adenoma miss rate. The secondary outcome measurement was the accuracy of the histologic prediction of neoplastic and nonneoplastic polyps. The adenoma detection rates during the first withdrawal of HDWL, i-SCAN1, and i-SCAN2 were 31.9%, 36.5%, and 33.1%, respectively (P = .742), and the adenoma miss rates of each group were 22.9%, 19.3%, and 15.9%, respectively (P = .513). Based on the multivariate analysis, the application of i-SCAN was not associated with an improvement in adenoma detection and the prevention of missed polyps. However, the prediction of neoplastic and nonneoplastic colorectal lesions was more precise in the i-SCAN2 group compared with the HDWL group (accuracy 79.3% vs 75.5%, P = .029; sensitivity 86.5% vs 72.6%, P = .020; and specificity 91.4% vs 80.6%, P = .040). Single-center trial. i-SCAN during the screening colonoscopy may fail to improve adenoma detection and the prevention of missed polyps, but i-SCAN appears to be effective for real-time histologic prediction of polyps compared with conventional HDWL colonoscopy. (Clinical trial registration number: NCT01417611.).
Article: Clinical significance of colonoscopic examination in patients with early stage of gastric neoplasm undergoing endoscopic submucosal dissection[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We aimed to determine the frequency of colorectal neoplasm in patients with early gastric neoplasm who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) compared to healthy controls and to investigate their risk factors for colorectal neoplasm. A total of 107 patients with gastric neoplasm including 54 gastric adenoma and 53 early gastric cancer (EGC) that underwent ESD and 107 sex/age-matched healthy controls were enrolled. All of the subjects underwent colonoscopy for routine check-up. High-risk colorectal neoplasm were defined as >1 cm, three or more polyps, adenoma with villous component, adenoma with high-grade dysplasia or adenocarcinoma. The frequency of overall colorectal neoplasm was 56.1% in the gastric neoplasm group and 34.6% in the control group (p < 0.005). High-risk colorectal neoplasm was found in 26.2% of patients with gastric neoplasm and 12.1% of controls (p < 0.01). In each gastric adenoma and EGC subgroups, the frequency of overall colorectal neoplasm was higher than each control subgroup. The frequency of high-risk colorectal neoplasm in EGC subgroup was significantly higher than that in the control subgroup, against not being in gastric adenoma subgroup. The risk factors for overall colorectal neoplasm were age and presence of gastric neoplasm, and that for high risk colorectal neoplasm was the only presence of gastric neoplasm. The frequency of overall and high-risk colorectal neoplasm in the gastric neoplasm group was higher than that in the control group. Therefore, a screening colonoscopy should be considered in patients with early gastric neoplasm undergoing ESD.

Absolutely dreadful, wouldn't take my dog there. Glad We only stayed one night. It should be closed down...seriously. The shower was dirty and all broken. There was no mirror in the bedroom. The balcony had a piece of wire tied along it to hang washing. The train line runs all night behind the hotel, and the lady behind the desk... More

The ad says Federal Lake City and shows 1000 rounds in bulk. What I received was two boxes of American Eagle, Lake City's seconds, packaged in 20 round boxes which are NOT resealable!!! If you are going sell ammo like that, AT LEAST TELL THE CUSTOMER WHAT YOU HAVE FOR SALE INSTEAD OF SHOWING ONE THING AND DELIVERING SOMETHING ELSE. I won't be buying ammo from Natchez in the future after this experience. Even the paint is different to show they are not Lake City first quality.

Article Summary
There certainly wasn't a shortage of smart eyewear at CES this year. Shortly after our encounter with Vuzix SMART Glasses we ran across these formidable looking SmartGoggles from Sensics. The Natalia Immersive SmartGoggles provide an ideal platform from which to deliver a powerful immersive gaming experience and as a result, they take up a considerable amount of space - "SmartHelmet" might be a more accurate description. But the bulkiness is quickly forgotten when you look at the hardware that's packed under the shell of this 360-degree 3D gaming and entertainment video rig.

Rare battle of big men highlights Summer Jam
MEQUON, Wisc. -- On the opening night of the Under Armour Summer Jam presented by NY2LA Sports, the gym at Homestead High School was buzzing over the possibility of the nation's top three big men being on the floor at the same time. As it turned out, the nation's top player, Jahlil Okafor, wasn't able to make it. But the Mac Irvin Fire still rolled out No. 4 Cliff Alexander and Texas Select countered with No. 6 Myles Turner. Right next to them, No. 10 Karl Towns and No. 11 Kevon Looney were dueling, and there were several other notables putting their reputations on the line.
Alexander, Fire get the win
Summer basketball never has a shortage of terrific guard matchups, but it isn't as often that the grassroots circuit treats coaches, scouts and fans to a prime-time, big-man matchup. The Summer Jam offered that on Wednesday night when Cliff Alexander, 2014's No. 4 player, and the Mac Irvin Fire rumbled with No. 6 Myles Turner and Texas Select.
Texas Select built an early 14-2 lead before the Fire came roaring back to win in blowout fashion, and a true one-on-one battle between the 6-foot-8 Alexander and 6-foot-10 Turner never really materialized. However, the two did square off a few times, and it was certainly easy to tell that they have totally different styles.
On the evening we'll give the edge to Alexander. He got off to a slow start and hurt his shooting numbers a bit late with some misses on deep jumpers. But when the Fire seized control of the game, it had a lot to do with Alexander's rugged play in the lane. More powerful and explosive than Turner, Alexander was bothered a bit by Turner's length; but he posted up forcefully and went right into Turner's chest. He crashed the glass and played a power game in the paint that included one vicious block when he spiked off the backboard so hard it bounced off and hit him in the face.
Early on, Turner hit a smooth looking three-pointer. He also caught one in the post and immediately turned on Alexander and drained a contested 10-foot jumper. Alexander's physicality clearly bothered him a bit and Turner focused more on facing up to the hoop. While he blocked some shots and did a good job on the glass, Turner was mostly quiet offensively as the Fire came back and salted the game away.
Rick Pitino, Tom Izzo, Thad Matta and Bill Self were among the notable head coaches on hand, but Alexander focused on talking about the highly anticipated matchup.
"I want to come out and dominate the game and be the best player I can be," Alexander said. "[Turner] is one of the best players in my class, and he plays the same position, so you have to come out ready to play. It hypes me up before the game."
Alexander felt that he played well and had a plan of attack for going against a guy that he respects in Turner.
"What I like about his game is that he can shoot the three and he's very versatile," said Alexander. "He can put it on the floor, but his weakness is he's too light, so I put my weight into him every time. Every time I got the ball in the paint."
Comfortable with his position as a power player, Alexander still wants to work on his game and has had coaches giving him some comparisons.
"I do need to develop my post moves and work a little bit on my jump shot," said Alexander. "They (coaches) have made that comparison to Thomas Robinson and Amar'e Stoudemire."
LaChance shows full game
If you are going to be known as something, it's never bad to be known as a shooter. Three-star prospect Riley LaChance certainly has that reputation. But the 6-foot-2 point guard wants people to see that he has a complete game and that he is capable of running a team.
Competitive and cerebral, LaChance doesn't make a lot of mistakes and his shooting really puts pressure on defenders. He was on fire early against Team Loaded VA before turning playmaker and leading his team to a mercy rule win. Getting off to a quick start was key after a disappointing end to the last game he played with Ray Allen Select.
"We lost a tough one last week," LaChance said. "We got right back in the gym, and I could tell as soon as we hit the floor tonight that we were going to play well.
"I want to show that I'm not just a shooter. I want to show that I can play the point and do other things."
LaChance says that he has been on the campuses of Wisconsin, Marquette, Creighton, Iowa and Wisconsin-Milwaukee. UWM has offered, and he said that he's gotten recent offers from Missouri, Davidson, Indiana State and San Diego among others. Xavier and Northwestern have been showing more interest.
LaChance says that he will likely pick a final five after July and look to set up visits after that. From his current list, he mentioned Missouri and Davidson as two that he would likely visit.
Fisher announces his presence
One of the more entertaining and in-your-face teams on the travel circuit is Memphis-based Team Thad. Nortun Hurd's squad has some star power, but it was a rising sophomore who really stood out on Wednesday night. Jaylen Fisher, a 6-foot-1 point guard, made a statement with his defensive toughness and willingness to take and hit big shots late.
In addition to burying some good looking jumpers, Fisher proved to be fearless attacking the lane on drives where he slowly lulled his defender to sleep before shifting into overdrive to get to the rim. According to Fisher, he racked up offers from Baylor, Memphis and Tennessee on Tuesday while Florida and USC are among those that have also reached out.
Final Wednesday night notes
There's not a lot more to write about Romelo Trimble. He's a gamer who knocks down shots, plays under control and Maryland fans will love him. Trimble's DC Assault teammate Chinanu Onuaku is also continuing a solid run. The current three-star prospect and member of the Rivals150 is among the fastest moving big man targets, and his rise into four-star status is all but certain at this point. The big man rebounds, has a great frame to work on and has some good touch around the rim. He had a big challenge on Wednesday night and passed it.
On the other side from Onuahu was the nation's No. 2 player in 2015, Stephen Zimmerman of Dream Vision. The skinny Las Vegas post had his moments and rebounded and passed very well, but Onuahu really made him work. A high school teammate of Zimmerman's and a four-star prospect knocking on the door of the top 30 in 2015, Chase Jeter continues to evolve as well. Jeter still lacks strength, but he's got some pop in his legs, soft hands and is embracing playing with more physicality. Shooter and 2014 four-star Namon Wright also got it rolling for a bit. The 6-foot-4 off guard really trusts his jumper and showed that he can use it from relatively close range, from midrange and deep.
Cliff Alexander wasn't the only one making noise for the Mac Irvin Fire. Class of 2015 four-star point guard Jalen Brunson hit some jumpers and was a steady hand at the top, while 6-foot-6 three star classmate Edward Morrow made plays. Morrow is a high energy guy who rebounds and runs the floor. Because of that, he gets rewarded with easy buckets around the rim.
Team Thad point guard Chris Chiozza continues to cement his place as an upper end point guard in 2014. Other guys are bigger, but he's tough and can really create. It's hard not to see a player similar to Phil Pressey. A Team Thad player who doesn't get a lot of hype is 6-foot-4 wing Jamerrio Jones. The product of Memphis (Tenn.) Melrose should probably be getting more run and looks to be at least an upper-end mid-major prospect. Jones is exceedingly tough, has a nose for the basketball and brings the fight to his opponent. He can score a bit off the dribble and makes some jumpers to keep defenders honest.
For the Illinois Wolves, Ohio State bound five-star Keita Bates-Diop was effective. He hit on some three-pointers and then slashed to the rim and got to the free throw line. Like Jones for Team Thad, three-star shooting guard Jayquan McCloud of the Wolves is another who takes the fight to defenders. More of a creator off the dribble and jump shooter, McCloud is a scorer and another who seems like a lock as at least an upper-end mid-major prospect.
Finally, we didn't focus on four-star Joe Burton's game, but it was easy to notice the Houston Defenders wing putting in work. The 6-foot-6 small forward erupted for 35 points and seemed to be knocking down a shot whenever we looked over to his court. Burton also threw down the dunk of the night on a nasty one-handed flash down the lane where he converted while being fouled.

My dog loves these cookies. The only problem I have with them is the icing. My dog loves to take her treats outside and save them for later, but with these, ants get all over the icing and sometimes I end up throwing more away than she eats.
Pros: good size, looks like real cookies!
Cons: icing

individuals in learning how options work and in understanding various

Today's investors are often confronted with uncertainties about the stock market. During bull markets they might be worried about market corrections, and during bear markets that their stocks could fall further. This uncertainty can lead to reluctance to invest, and strong up moves might be missed. Just like insuring other valuable assets like homes and automobiles, stock positions can also be insured, and this is exactly what a protective put accomplishes. Although not suitable for all investors, buying puts to protect an existing stock position, or simultaneously purchasing stock and puts, can supply the insurance needed for those shares to overcome doubts about the marketplace. Typically, by paying a put premium that is relatively small compared to the market value of the stock, an investor knows that no matter how far the stock drops he has a guaranteed selling price. By exercising the put, underlying shares can be sold at the strike price at anytime until the option expires.
Buying a protective put involves buying one put contract for every 100 shares of underlying stock already owned or simultaneously purchased. This put guarantees the owner the right, but not the obligation, to sell the shares at the strike price at any time until the option expires, no matter how low the stock declines in value. And just as with other forms of insurance the investor pays a premium for this protection - the premium paid for the put.
The protective put's upside profit potential is unlimited as long as the price of the underlying stock continues to rise. However, purchasing a protective put in effect increases the purchase price of the stock by the premium paid for the option contract. When the underlying shares are ultimately sold, whether by exercising the put after a stock price decline or by simply selling the shares after a stock increase, the net price received will be the sale price less the put premium paid. The break-even point for this strategy at expiration can be calculated in advance as the stock's purchase price plus the put premium paid.
Another benefit of the protective put is that the investor is in total control of the sale of the protected shares. Since the protection provided is a long option position, whether or not the put is exercised, and the underlying shares sold, is entirely up to the investor. If the underlying stock has declined below the put's strike price before it expires, and the put is in-the-money with intrinsic value, the put may be sold instead of exercised and the shares retained. Regardless of the investor's decision at option expiration, during the lifetime of the put contract the investor continues to receive any dividends paid to stockholders as long as the underlying shares are owned.

text: Hello, I would like to submit my own "crazy" theory of quantum gravity for discussion. The relevant paper was posted in the ArXiv recently E.V. Stefanovich "A relativistic quantum theory of gravity" http://www.arxiv.org/physics/0612019 Let me make sure I haven't ignored any of the posting guidelines. 1. The opening post must contain an abstract stating the results obtained and how the new theory is at variance with currently accepted theories. Here is the abstract from the paper: A relativistic quantum theory of gravity is proposed in which the gravitational interaction between particles is represented by distance- and velocity-dependent potentials. The Poincare invariance, the cluster separability, and the causality of this approach are established. The Hamiltonian for interacting massive particles and photons is formulated within the c[tex]^{-2}[/tex] approximation. The classical limit of this theory reproduces well-known relativistic gravitational effects, including the anomalous precession of the Mercury's perihelion, the light bending by the Sun's gravity, the radar echo delay, the gravitational time dilation, and the red shift. The main point of "variance" with "accepted theories" is that gravity is not treated as a space-time curvature. This is important for making my theory compatible with the laws of quantum mechanics. Moreover, it appears that all classical predictions of general relativity can be reproduced within this simple potential-based approach. The theory, as presented, is an approximation. However, the message is that a full and exact approach may be based on the same principles. 2. The opening post must contain a section that either cites experiments that have been done that decide between the new and old theories, or it must propose experiments that could be done to decide between the two. If the submission contains a theory that is empirically equivalent to an existing theory, then this section may be substituted with a section that demonstrates the empirical equivalence and that compares and contrasts the insights gained from the submitted and existing theories. As I mentioned above, the new theory agrees with all classical tests of general relativity. There are some observations, like frame dragging or orbital decay of binary pulsars, which are not mentioned in the paper, mainly due to my ignorance in these matters. My approach predicts some new effects. The most significant is the dependence of the gravitational acceleration of particles on their velocity. I believe that this effect contradicts the principle of equivalence. However, its magnitude is too small to be observed by modern experimental techniques. 3. All references to relevant prior work must be documented in the opening post. The paper has 70 references 4. Quantitative predictions must be derived, wherever appropriate, and mathematical expressions and equations must be presented legibly, using LaTeX whenever necessary. For instructions and sample code see this thread. This should be done in the opening post. I guess that link to the arXiv article covers this requirement. 5. New theories must not be already strongly inconsistent with the results of prior experiments. I mentioned that already. 6. If a new theory is strongly inconsistent with prior experiments, but the theorist is insisting that the experiments were either misconducted or misinterpreted by the scientific community, then the thread will be rejected. Instead the theorist should rebut the contradicting scientists in an appropriate journal. No, I didn't claim that. 7. Theories containing obvious mathematical or logical errors will not be accepted. If there are such errors in my paper, I am eager to learn about them. 8. Threads which contain obvious misrepresentations or gross misunderstanding of basic accepted science, especially when used in attempt to compare one's personal theory to currently accepted science, will not be accepted. I hope I didn't do that. 9. External links will be permitted only for lengthy derivations and for diagrams. Any other expository text pertaining to the submitted theory must be posted at Physics Forums. Please note that this is a temporary Guideline that will remain in place only while we work on enlarging the maximum allowable attachment size in the IR Forum. Once that happens, we will require that all material pertaining to the theory be either posted at Physics Forums or attached to the thread. I think this 29 pages paper can be regarded as "lengthy derivation and diagrams". So, providing an external link should be OK. If this is a problem I can attach a PDF file. If a submitted thread with external links is approved, then the content of those links must not be altered unless approved by me. Failure to comply may result in a locked or deleted thread. I believe it is OK to make minor modifications to the text posted in arXiv, like adding references. Is it so? Thank you very much for providing this opportunity to share my work with scientific community. Best regards. Eugene Stefanovich.
