Prime Minister
Before Sunrise
November 12, 2009
When President Obama arrives in Tokyo on Friday, he will confront a country that seeks to be an ally of the United States. For Japan has never been an American ally. It was first a rival, then an enemy, and finally, after it lost the war it foolishly started with the U.S., it became a protectorate, not an ally. The distinction matters. An alliance is an institution negotiated between two sovereign governments in which each agrees to a series of reciprocal obligations that have the force of law.
Gordon Brown's Spelling (cont'd)
November 11, 2009
It looks like I underestimated the intelligence of the British public when I said that Gordon Brown's spat with the grieving mother of a dead British soldier was a no-win situation for him. Actually, he's winning: a new poll finds that 65 percent of British voters think that the attacks on Brown--which are being orchestrated by The Sun, the Murdoch-owned tabloid that's supporting David Cameron--are unfair. Alex Massie captures the sentiment: [T]here come moments when legitmate criticism crosses some kind of line and becomes bullying. This is one such instance.
The Amazing Race for the Most Extreme Cabinet Meeting
November 02, 2009
Last month, the Maldives held its cabinet meeting underwater to highlight the fact that the island nation is at risk of vanishing as global warming causes sea levels to rise. The cabinet members all put on scuba gear, got paired with a diving expert, and had to communicate by writing on whiteboards with nifty waterproof pens. Now the Nepalese government is trying to do one better, announcing its own cabinet meeting on... Mount Everest, in order to draw attention to melting glaciers.
Dear Rahm: Barack Obama and Yitzhak Rabin, The Link That Will Not Help
November 02, 2009
This coming Wednesday will be the 14th anniversary of the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin at a Tel Aviv rally for the Oslo peace accords. Like the initial rally itself, the memorial--scheduled for Saturday, October 31, but postponed due to what turned out to be only light rains--was to be a highly charged political event. Except that in 1995, Israel was still stirred by hopes of bringing the decades of war with the Arabs to an end. Yet, at the same time, foreboding grew that these hopes themselves constituted a trap, a mortal trap.
Go Ahead and Admit It. Say You're "Pro-Palestinian." Just See Where It Gets You.
October 27, 2009
J Street is having an identity crisis right in front of the cameras. For a year and a half it's been trumpeting that it's both "pro-Israel" and "pro-peace." Actually, that's how I would characterize myself. I am for a two-state solution and always have been. I was for a "Jewish state" and an "Arab state" ever since I was a kid. That's ultimately what nearly every Israeli prime minister has been for, too. And that's what Israel has been trying in different ways and in different circumstances to negotiate.
Putin's Game
October 27, 2009
After years of stalemate, negotiations over Iran's controversial nuclear development program seemed to progress last week when an Iranian delegation in Vienna agreed to the export and modification of its low-enriched uranium. The resulting optimism did not last. Officials in Tehran demurred, insisting that they needed more time to study the proposal and could not meet Friday's deadline to ratify the agreement. While Iran's stonewalling came as a disappointment to the United States, it did not come as a surprise.
Rory Stewart, MP
October 26, 2009
At the end of my piece on Rory Stewart in the current print issue, I mentioned that he was already plotting his leave from Harvard by running for parliament back in the U.K. A quick update on that: Over the weekend, Stewart was adopted as the Conservative candidate for Penrith and Border, which, since this is a safe Tory seat, means he'll be trading in his professorship to become an MP next year. Alex Massie has some interesting thoughts on whether Stewart's brief for a more modest approach in Afghanistan will find any takers in Parliament: I don't expect this view to catch on.
Hillary in Moscow: Will the New START Treaty Cripple Conventional U.S. Military Power?
October 13, 2009
The news surrounding today's meeting between Hillary Clinton and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov is pretty bad. Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has taken the opportunity to dump cold water on our hopes for more Iran sanctions and to trumpet a Sino-Russian gas pipeline deal that would weaken our hand in Central Asia. But, despite all that, it's worth keeping in mind that the "New START" treaty that Hillary is in Moscow to negotiate is a solid one. The deal would supplant both START I, the arms-control treaty signed by George H.W.
Now that George Mitchell is Negotiating Between Israel and the Palestinians, Hillary Has Been Assigned the Irish. I Thought the Irish Question Had Been Solved ... by George Mitchell!
October 11, 2009
President Obama designated George Mitchell his special envoy to the Jews and the Arabs because he had experience with them. Of course, Mitchell's familiarity with the Middle East was the familiarity of utter failure. No matter. Obama couldn't have sent George Tenet again ... or, God forbid, Anthony Zinni.
How the Nobel Peace Prize Works
October 10, 2009
It is just about 15 years since Yasir Arafat received the Nobel Peace Prize. Everybody understood that the two leaders of the State of Israel who shared the award with him, Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and Foreign Minister Shimon Peres, actually deserved it. But Arafat's primary deed in life was to be a terrorist. A tactician of terror and a strategist of terrorism. Thinking about Arafat in the royal palace made me cringe then. When I went to Al Gore's installation two years ago, I could not get out of my head that the rais had stood in the same spot, a usurper and a fraud.

October 13, 2011
Lauren Dalrymple, 36, is about to add something new to her life -- a new last name of Christel -- when she gets married this coming weekend. But when it comes to her style, the original Northwood resident loves the influence of something old. "I lean more toward the classic; Jackie O, early '60s, anything vintage-y." The Heath Design Group interior designer brought that vibe to the "Paws for a Cause Charity Night," a fundraiser at Blue Hill Tavern for the Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter. Dalrymple-soon-to-be-Christel wore a black and auburgine chevron-striped cotton-knit Mossimo dress from Target with black tights and black leather booties from the Nine West store. She bought her black leather slouch bag at the Coach store and added a vintage triple-strand black bead necklace from Avenue Antiques in Hampden. "I like to accessorize with chunky bold pieces."

First Lady Michelle Obama could launch a career in TV if her husband, Barack Obama, isn't reelected President today. Several TV executives are already considering the possibility of giving her her own talk show, it has emerged.
The Daily Mail reports that, in case Michelle Obama isn't America's First Lady after the Presidential Elections, she could very well forge for herself a name in showbiz, with her own daytime talk show.
Comparisons between herself and Oprah Winfrey, dubbed the Queen of Television by the press, already abound – and no one knows yet whether Mrs. Obama would be interested in such a career in the first place.
Many believe Mrs. Obama is a natural in front of the camera, and the audiences love her. Her own talk show would be a hit.
"Personally I would like to see her in the White House. But if she were not going to be in the White House, I'd love to see her as the host of a show. She's amazing," Hilary Estey McLoughlin, president of syndication company behind the Ellen DeGeneres show, says, as cited by the Mail.
Former CNN President Jon Klein agrees: Michelle Obama would be a great addition to any network, as host of her own talk show.
"Daytime syndicators are desperate for a new voice and she is tailor made for it. She's thoughtful. She's committed. She's a working mom. She'd be a strong voice on issues important to her," he is quoted as saying.
As noted above, no one knows whether Michelle Obama would be interested in such a career, for the simple reason that she never spoke about her plans after she leaves the White House.
However, if she does decide in favor of it, rest assured you'll find out about it here.

Staff development and implementation of RTI have focused almost exclusively on the elementary level or have extended the elementary approach to secondary settings. Although well intentioned, the result has been too few middle and high school RTI implementations. This introductory workshop assumes the participant is at the beginning stages of secondary implementation and thus will provide illustrations of the needed skill sets, resources to find them, and guidance in structuring a secondary multitier model. The workshop will include training on a set of four structured self-studies to support implementation.

A five-strong badminton team will attempt to win Australia's first Olympic medal in the sport in London.
The Australian Olympic Committee announced on Thursday men's doubles partners Ross Smith and Glenn Warfe, women's doubles partners Leanne Choo and Renuga Veeran and women's singles player Victoria Na would take to the courts at London's Wembley Arena.
The team came through a long qualification process, needing to push themselves up the rankings in a bid to book their spot on the team.
Beijing Olympians Smith and Warfe will compete at a second successive Games after losing their opening round clash in 2008.
"The two of us are really happy to have made the Games in London," said Smith.
"The past 12 months have been our most successful so far in our careers and we are definitely looking to progress further again on the Olympic stage."
Australian badminton team: Leanne Choo, Victoria Na, Ross Smith, Renuga Veeran, Glenn Warfe.

Southern Africa is richly endowed with wildlife. AWF increasingly is collaborating with parks and conservationists in South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe and other countries in the region to help protect their priceless resources.
Much of this Heartland embraces mountainous rain forests and beautiful crater lakes in the adjoining countries of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda and Uganda. The region has been caught up in recent years in human battles that have not only taken a severe toll on people but have continuously threatened the mountain gorillas and other rare species living there.
In this Heartland, on the vast expanses of the Laikipia plateau in north central Kenya, a great diversity of wildlife thrive in the semidesert conditions. The pastoral Samburu people herd their goats, sheep, cattle and camels in the shadow of Mt. Kenya, a crucial source of water for humans and animals alike.
Composed primarily of savanna, lakes, swamps and flood plains, the Tarangire-Manyara Heartland includes Tarangire and Lake Manyara National Parks, the Marang Forest, a large area of the Masai Steppe and small urban areas. Much of the land outside the parks is used for ranching or agriculture. It is in this Heartland that Tanzania National Parks and AWF pioneered community conservation, encouraging park authorities and local people to address wildlife issues together.
The African Wildlife Foundation ended the 20th century by ushering in sweeping changes that will transform the way wildlife and the wilderness are protected in Africa in the next century. The most far-reaching change is AWF's expansion of its focus to larger, biologically rich landscapes, where wildlife and people coexist. We call these regions African Heartlands.

Man under mental evaluation following police standoff
YAKIMA, Wash. -- A Yakima man is in custody under mental evaluation after a standoff with police. The man was hiding in a home on North 22nd Avenue off River Road for more than two hours.
As police tried to get him to come outside. It started with a call for a domestic. The father said his son had a gun and was asking for money.
"I came up to get the paper and thought who's parked in front of our house you know and then I started looking up and down the street and there's cop cars everywhere," said neighbor Barbara Bush.
The results of the mental evaluation will determine if charges are filed.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Crude-oil supplies climbed less than expected for the week ended Feb. 22, according to data from the American Petroleum Institute issued late Tuesday. Crude supplies rose 904,000 barrels. Analysts polled by Platts were looking for a 2.6 million-barrel climb. Gasoline inventories declined by 1.4 million barrels, while distillate stockpiles fell 1.7 million barrels, the trade group said. Analysts forecast a fall of 1.5 million barrels for gasoline supplies and a 1.7 million-barrel decline for distillate stockpiles. The API data come ahead of the more closely watched U.S. Energy Information Administration report due Wednesday. Ahead of the API report, April crude clj3 fell 0.5% to settle at $92.63 a barrel, the lowest close of the year.

KRASNAYA POLYANA, Russia — Canada's Mark McMorris wasn't going to let a broken rib derail his Winter Games plan.
McMorris, a snowboarder, needed acupuncture, massage therapy and plenty of rehab exercises to get back in form after crashing at the X Games late last month. He knew he would have to fight through the pain and impress the judges to reach the podium in slopestyle's Olympic debut.
MORE: Slopestyle gold | Medal count | Hockey wins: Canada | U.S. | Images
He did just that Saturday, nailing his second run to win bronze and give Canada its first medal of the Sochi Games.
"I would have loved to be in the gold-medal position but with what I've been through in the last two weeks, just standing on the podium in general feels like a gold medal to me," said McMorris, a former X Games champion who was touted as a gold-medal contender in the lead-up to Sochi.
American Sage Kotsenburg won gold with a score of 93.50. He was just ahead of Norway's Staale Sandbech, who took silver with a 91.75.
McMorris, who scored 88.75, had to work with a team of specialists and therapists just to get to the starting gate. Once he had medical clearance and knew he wouldn't damage the injury any further, McMorris was determined to succeed.
"It didn't matter how much pain it was going to take," coach Adam Burwell said. "All he knew was he wasn't going to hurt himself anymore. He just needed to ride through it and he did it."
McMorris took it easy on the Rosa Khutor Extreme Park course at the start of the week. A solid training run left him feeling hopeful but a mediocre showing in the qualification round raised questions.
The course, which includes an intimidating mix of rails, ledges and jumps that competitors navigate on their way down, was challenging. McMorris described the jumps as "obnoxiously tall" and the impact from landing made him grimace.
In Saturday's final run, McMorris delivered a technically strong effort on the rail portion of the course before stepping up on the bottom half. He landed his trademark backside triple cork 1440—an eye-popping move that includes three off axis-flips while spinning four times—with his final jump.
"Two triple corks weren't the hammer today," McMorris said. "It was something else."
The hammer turned out to be the "Holy Crail," a move that Kotsenburg debuted in the final. He got the judges' attention by spinning and rotating 4 1/2 times while managing to grab the board behind his back.
"The course is a canvas and your board is a paintbrush," American coach Mike Jankowski said. "Sage will do it his way and he will make it look good. He's the spice master. He's putting his punctuation on every trick."
The rib injury didn't hold McMorris back. The judges just seemed to be more impressed with Kotsenburg's creativity and Sandbech's flair.
"It's hard to wrap your head around what they really wanted to see but yeah, I'm happy," McMorris said. "It's a really good day for me."
Canada's Max Parrot, the reigning X Games champion, delivered a strong run that McMorris as sure would be enough to push him off the podium.
Parrot, from Bromont, Quebec, looked pleased with his effort. But once the scores were posted it was not enough.
Parrot's disappointment was etched on his face. He felt he had done enough to reach the podium but knew the point totals were out of his hands.
"I was really stoked with my run and I thought it would have scored higher than this," he said. "But you know, it happens—not just at the Olympics, it happens at a lot of contests that the judges (don't) really like your run."
Montreal's Sebastien Toutant finished ninth. Charles Reid of Mont-Tremblant, Quebec, was eliminated in the semifinal round after finishing 14th.
American Shaun White was expected to be a contender in the event but he pulled out earlier in the week and will instead focus on the halfpipe. Toutant and Parrot criticized the move on Twitter before later deleting their tweets.

Unfortunately, as we get older, suboptimal health and fitness can affect our quality of life by limiting our ability to do our favorite activities. Many of us blame this on age. But actually, much of what we consider a result of aging is actually due to a gradual decline in muscle mass. According to the American Council on exercise, we lose 3-5% of muscle mass per decade after we turn 30. The rate of muscle loss accelerates after 50, particularly for postmenopausal women. This results in a loss of stamina, strength, and balance. According to the American College of Sports Medicine (ASCM), we can slow these losses by doing things that maintain – or even improve – muscular strength and power.
You don't have to feel old before your time. Adopting a better diet and fitness plan will help you have the energy and stamina to continue an active lifestyle as well as prevent age-related illnesses. Attaining the best possible state of fitness requires a life-long commitment to healthy lifestyle habits. If you want to transform your body into what it was 10 or 20 years ago, consume a well balanced diet that contains plenty of lean protein, fruits, vegetables and whole grains – but that's just the first step. A balanced exercise plan, like the one detailed below, helps complete the transformation.
There are four components of an exercise program to optimize health and slow the aging process. First and foremost is strength training. Adequate strength is needed to more easily perform daily activities such as cleaning, yard work and playing with the grandchildren, as well as enjoying your favorite pasttimes (golf, skiing, etc). The others include: balance, flexibility and cardiovascular or aerobic exercise. These are not mutually exclusive; for example, you will likely have gains in cardiovascular health and improvements in balance from resistance exercises. And you can gain some strength while working on balance or from aerobic exercises that rely on the larger muscle groups.
Strength Training
Maintaining your weight over time does not mean muscle isn't vanishing, notes Steven B. Heymsfield of St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center in New York. Muscle loss usually goes unnoticed for decades. In fact, the body hides its loss by subtly padding affected areas with extra fat. This change in body composition in favor of fat can be slowed or reversed by coupling a healthy diet with exercise that incorporates resistance training.
The American Heart Association and the American College of Sports Medicine (2007) recommend doing 10-15 repetitions of 8-10 exercises using weights or other resistance equipment two or more times per week. If you have limited time, focus on the larger muscle groups or exercises that work a combination of muscle groups at one time.
Added benefits include increased bone density and a faster metabolism, which means you'll burn more calories throughout the day.
Here are some suggestions for maximizing your time and activating the most muscles:
- Focus on the large muscle groups including Quadriceps and Hamstrings.
Your quadriceps is the large group of muscles on the front of the upper leg. These muscles run along the front of the thigh, starting at the hip joint and ending at the knee joint. Hamstrings run along the back of your leg from the knee to the hip. Together, their primary function is to flex the hip and extend/bend the knee, motions needed for walking, running, jumping, climbing stairs and pedaling. Squats and lunges target these muscles. Both can be done with or without weights.
- Large muscles/combination: Lat pull downs. You can do these on a lat machine or using resistance bands. This exercise uses several groups of muscles in your back as well as arms and abs if you focus on your from and posture. Other suggestions include assisted pull-ups and push-ups.
For additional exercises and demos go to the website of Georgia State University, Department of Kinesiology and Health.
While this is not the exercise of choice for adding muscle, if you are now sedentary you will add a little muscle by doing aerobic activity. The real benefits of aerobic exercise include improved circulation and emotional well-being. Low impact activities such as brisk walking, bicycling, swimming and hiking are not only easy on your joints, but also have been shown to improve cardiovascular and cognitive health. If your goal is heart health, then track your steps with a pedometer and aim for 10,000 per day. If your goal is weight loss, you may have to work up to 12,000 steps or more per day. Weight loss will be of higher quality and easier to maintain if you couple your aerobic exercise with a couple bouts of strength training every week.
Balance is "the ability to maintain the body's center of mass over its base of support against the forces of gravity and acceleration" (Shumway-Cook, 2001). If you are just turning 50, you probably aren't overly concerned with balance. However, as the years slip by this will become more and more important for maintaining quality of life. Believe it or not, strength training, particularly with free weights, is one of the best ways to maintain balance. Other exercises that focus specifically on balance, such as step ups on a Bosu Balance ball (looks like half an exercise ball with a flat bottom) or single leg squats, can be included in your strength training routine.
Have you noticed how much more difficult it is now to reach back and get that seatbelt? Our flexibility declines as we age, resulting in restricted range of motion. Stretching after you've warmed up your muscles, or doing yoga and Pilates, are good ways to build flexibility. Pilates and yoga can also help you develop core strength and balance.
To build muscle and maintain overall health and fitness:
- Weight train at least 30 minutes, 2-3 times per week, making sure you have at least 48 hours rest before working out the same muscle groups.
- Warm up for at least 5 minutes before you start your workout.
- A rowing machine or elliptical with the handles will warm up upper and lower body simultaneously.
- Include at least 30 minutes of aerobic exercise 3 or more times per week. Vary your workouts to prevent overuse of the same muscles and joints.
- Take a yoga or Pilates class once a week.
If you want to do weight training and aerobics on the same day, I recommend a 5 minute warm-up followed by 30-60 minutes of strength training, finishing with a half hour of aerobic activity such as walking, cycling or swimming.
Remember to stretch at the end of your workout when your muscles are warm and more pliable.
If you get really serious about building strength and muscle, you will need to adjust your diet. I recommend whey protein drinks before your workout and again about 10 minutes after you complete your strength training. Proper supplementation can optimize performance.
If you find you enjoy aerobic activity and want to participate in events of longer duration, you may need to include some supplements to provide extra "fuel" to maintain your energy and maximize recovery.
Regular physical activity that includes these 4 basic components – strength, aerobics, balance and flexibility – not only helps you look and feel younger; it also lowers your risk for a variety of conditions.

This is my second tube of the Instant Light Lip Perfector, and I'm obsessed with it. The smell, the taste, the texture. Everything is amazing, and as a bonus, you can apply it without a mirror and it still looks amazing. It moisturizes the lips and doesn't feel sticky! It even looks amazing on top of lipstick.

Very nice lip product. I love how Clarins lip products contain shimmer, but it's so microfine that all you end up with is a nice glow...no chunks or migration. This is very sheer...IMO, it really doesn't matter which color you use...the result will be about the same. It's very moisturizing, and makes lips look larger and healthy. It is on the expensive side, but IMO you can't buy a drugstore item with the benefits of this. I also have the stick balm form of this, and it's as good. It's a nice splurge you can use every day.

This is an expensive, but good lipbalm/lipgloss. It's non-sticky, gives glossy colour and feels nice on the lips. It doesn't last very long though. I like it, but find that it's really over-priced. You can buy cheaper lipglosses and balms that do the same, but don't cost as much.

I bought this for moisturuzation, not colour - it just seemed very similar in texture to my favourite (discontinued) lipbalm. It's pretty good at moisturizing the lips! Mine were quite chapped before I began using this, but it fixed them in a few days. The texture is almost not sticky and not too oily either. I have sensitive lips, and this does absolutely not irritate them
The only thing not so positive is that I have this in 05, and it doesn't flatter my fair olive skin - the peachy colour just brings out the green tones more. Will try 06 next time, which is bronzier. UPDATE: bought 06 for 50% off, and it looks absolutely awsome - very naturally nude, for days you don't want to wear pink! :D

I read great reviews and decided to try this out. Bought 05 (pinky coral on me). Loved it!!! Went back and got 01 (pinkish nude), 06 (brownish nude more pigment). I like putting this on first and then patting a bit of a lipstick in the middle to give it an incredible sheen. I love the texture, the smell and the application. The price point is great $20 in Canada, I would spend up to $35 on something this amazing.

I have been loving this product for over 3 years now basically for the applicator and the gorgeous smell otherwise i am not a fan of sticky glossy type lip products, but this is still a winner. Will always repurchase. Love shades 01 and 04 although they are very sheer.

I got this in the shade 01. I should have tried this before I bought, honestly. I got it before I went home for Christmas, and by the time I got home my lips had really persistent redness, irritation, and pain. After a few weeks of applying just hydrocortisone and Vaseline to my lips, they healed. I tried the lip perfector again last night and...immediately the redness and irritation returned. So the good news is I found out what my lips were reacting to. The bad news is I really wanted it to not be this gloss. I love it otherwise. The smell and the texture is amazing. It just has something my sensitive skin reacts to. So I'm very very sad!

I bought a twin pack at the airport so it was a good price.
Inside were the Apricot and Rose shades. I would not recommend buying more than one of shade as the pigment is so sheer that it's impossible to detect any difference in the shades whatsoever.
Faintly pretty sheen on the lips but really nothing special and when the product has worn off the lips feel dry - not so with my trusty Carmex!
Everyone else seems to love these but I don't really see what the fuss is. I will continue to use it but I don't think I would buy again.
I would probably enjoy these more if they had a slightly deeper / richer pigment, but they are nothing more than a sheer, vanilla lip balm.

Excellent product! It does perfect your lips. Very nice feel on the lips (smooth and light), slight pleasant smell, beautiful colours, glossy finish.
I find the product just perfect. The packaging is very good: a soft tube that allows squeezing the exact amount you need and lets you finish it all up. The applicator is very nice too.
I own a few shades (01, 02, 06) and am very happy about them.

The scene starts off with Dink telling Brian that he's wanted to work with him since her first saw his photo, and he's all smiles. Brian tells Kaden that he's pretty fucking nervous and Kaden assures him that everything will be fine. These two together are mesmerizing. You'll get lost in those smiles and eyes, but pay close attention to the banter because it's great. They take off their shirts and admire one another's bodies. Kaden is complimentary of Brian's body and vice-versa. It doesn't take long for the pants to come off and Kaden is spying Brian's cock as soon as it reveals itself. They're all smiles. The cocks are hard and bouncing in no time and they're sizing one another up. They start out jerking each others cocks and comparing size. Brian is really impressed with Kaden's body and he starts touching and rubbing Kaden's torso all over. Finally, he gives one of Kaden's pecs a little bite and starts licking and kissing Kaden's chest. Kaden cups his hand around Brian's head and e
kayden is so hot!!!
They are both just perfect..
Brian is dream come to life.

HCL In Finland
One of the most innovative countries in Europe, Finland has a highly industrialized, mixed economy. It also ranks first in health, primary education, and higher education and training, according to the World Economic Forum's 2012-13 Global Competitiveness Report. A strong focus on education has laid the foundation for accelerating levels of technological adoption and innovation in an economy that has become increasingly dominated by information and communications technologies.
Finnish companies are opting for software outsourcing services to deal with increasing complexity and competition while focusing on core business operations. Through an office in Helsinki and a delivery center in Espoo, HCL is serving companies like Nokia, UPM, and OP Pohjola, providing global delivery support with value-added services.
Several principles at HCL's core have contributed to the success of our engagements with clients in this region:
Employees First: Our unique management philosophy, based on trust and transparency, empowers frontline employees to create value for customers every day. This thinking — described in the best-selling book Employees First, Customers Second: Turning Conventional Management Upside Down (Harvard Business Press, 2010) by former CEO Vineet Nayar — has created a distinctive culture of employee-driven innovation. We call it ideapreneurship, and it is yielding excellent business outcomes for both HCL and our customers.
Relationship Beyond the Contract: Technology is constantly changing, often making even the best contracts appear outdated or ill-conceived. That's why at HCL we focus on developing relationships beyond the contract, not just by optimizing costs or enhancing efficiency but by thinking well into the future on behalf of our customers. Alt-ASM — our alternative approach to managing applications — and Enterprise Function as a Service (EFaaS) — our integrated end-to-end proposition for IT and business services across business functions — are just two of several initiatives in this direction.
Global Delivery, Local Center of Gravity: "Think global, act local" drives our strategy for serving customers and partners in every region. Through global/local Centers of Excellence, the creation of talent pools in local markets, and the cultivation of an ecosystem of local and global partners for pioneering new propositions and delivery frameworks, HCL provides value to customers well beyond cost optimization.
Since entering the Finnish market, HCL has been widely recognized for its commitment to the country's business and societal issues:
HCL's Europe Customer Advisory Council: This collaborative forum consists of more than 30 CIOs who convene on a regular basis to help HCL align solutions with local market requirements and technology needs, creating more value for our customers. The Council also serves as an exceptional platform for HCL clients and their industry peers to exchange ideas and best practices. It has been recognized through several awards — including the IT Services Marketing Association (ITSMA) Diamond Award and the Forrester Groundswell Award in the B2B category — for the trust it fosters between HCL and its customers.
Diverse and inclusive workforce: No matter where they are located, HCL employees fit into our clients' work environments. Through their extensive training in cross-cultural awareness and tools such as Globesmart, HCL employees build and sustain trusting and transparent business relationships based on mutual advantage. These approaches are complemented by traditional HR support, idea exchange events, and blog-sharing and discussion forums.
Enabling innovation for customers: HCL's culture of transparency brings out the best in our employees, leading them to help clients grow and do business in new ways.
Empowering employees for success: HCL helps local employees find passion in their daily work and forge connections with those who have deep knowledge of the company, thus expanding the organization and inspiring all employees to excel.

A jubilant women's lacrosse team returned from Pennsylvania Saturday after placing fifth in the National Collegiate Women's Lacrosse Tournament and laying claim to the ninth or tenth place slot in this season's national rankings. West Chester State, the host team, nabbed first place in the tournament when they downed Ursinus, 8-4, in the finale yesterday afternoon.
A last minute goal by senior Ellen Seidler allowed the Crimson to notch an 8-7 win over the University of Pennsylvania Quarkers. This upset pushed the fourth-seeded Penn team into sixth place behind the Harvard team.
More Mleczko
The Crimson lost their first game to West Chester State, 11-7, but performed well against the home team. Down 7-2 at the half, the Crimson attack refused to fold. Third home Sarah Mleczko plowed through the opposition for three straight one-on-one tallies before West Chester tightened their defense for good.
In their second game, the Crimson's ever-amazing defense had an Ursinus team running scared. Ursinus under-estimated the Harvard laxwomen, who were able to battle their way to a 3-2 lead at the half. Mleczko scored the Crimson's sharpest goal on another of her ready-made one-on-one drives. Receiving the ball behind the goal, Mleczko moved around the right side, used the cage for a pick and dropped a soft shot into the upper righthand corner.
Unfortunately the Crimson could not keep pace with Ursinus beyond the half and a scoring surge left them with a 6-4 loss.
The entire offense swung into action in the Crimson's decisive win over the New York State Champs from Colgate University. The final score was 17-7, with first home Lisa Kent pushing five goals through for the Crimson. In another exhibition of their fine passing skills, the Harvard defense moved the ball and hit Seidler in front of the cage where she once again did the job with a quick pop shot.
"It was a nice way to end the season--by playing so well, win or lose, in every game," Seilder said yesterday.
"We probably finished the season among the top ten teams in the country. Even though we had some losses, they were all against tough teams," Coach Carole Kleinfelder said.
"I am really pleased with this season's final results because it clearly demonstrates that women's lacrosse has turned the corner and is on the upswing in New England," she added.

Unfortunately things may already be too late.
- BlackHorse.
These boundaries make sense but we often fail even if we identify them. This is because we dont think about the other side of the boundary issue, CONSEQUENCES. Personal boundaries NEED consequences, otherwise they are not true boundaries. Consequences are the outcomes of a persons behaviors. By their nature, they gauge the relative value of the behavior, because we as humans strive for positive outcomes or consequences. When dealing with boundaries with your WS, we as BSs have the power to determine the consequences; we get to decide what is acceptable and what we will allow as a result of the behavioral choices made by our WSs. These choices are never easy, but once made they need to be fairly static, and need to be communicated effectively so both parties are clear as to the boundary and consequence. You need to be clear about your expectations , for me we wrote a marital contract and put it on paper, I wrote them down and discussed each with my WS.
I think that is eloquently stated.
Not all consequences need to be dire, all WSs will make mistakes in Reconciliation, if everything is a deal breaker then your doomed to failure. Your WS didnt get in this predicament in a day, there are years of learned behaviors and coping mechanisms that need to be discovered and unwound. While discussing the marital contract you can discuss your values, why you have particular deal breakers and what messages are sent when violations occur. This helps you communicate to your WS your values, and the fact that your values are important to bonding you back to this Marriage.
Yes, not every negative behavior should be a deal breaker, only those that apply to boundaries that are breeding grounds for an affair
Very good reminders to keep the BS on track.

St. Lucie officials want to join with Martin County to take necessary action to restore area waterways
ST. LUCIE COUNTY — St. Lucie County Commissioners want to join forces with their counterparts in Martin County to get Gov. Rick Scott to declare a state of emergency for the Indian River Lagoon and St. Lucie River estuary.
During Tuesday's budget workshop, St. Lucie commissioners did not vote but gave staff consensus to work with Martin County government officials to finding a solution to prevent the Lake Okeechobee releases from flowing north into the Indian River Lagoon, said county spokesman Erick Gill.
A state declaration of emergency would allow local governments to take whatever action necessary to restore health to the water ways, St. Lucie Commission Chairman Tod Mowery said.
The state declaration also would open the door for local governments to apply for reimbursement from Federal Emergency Management Agency, though there is no guarantee the money would be available.
"Every week that Gov. Scott and other officials wait, we could see more freshwater moving further north into Indian River Lagoon," Mowery said.
Commissioners are interested in placing a device that would prevent the flow of more pollutants and sediment from the freshwater discharges into the lagoon and installing pumps that would push saltwater from the Atlantic Ocean into the lagoon, Gill said.
Gill said crews would use pumps currently in operation by Mosquito Control District to flood local marshes to keep the soil at a certain moisture level to prevent mosquito larvae from hatching.
The cost of purchasing additional pumps, if necessary, was not available, but Gill said the two counties could apply to FEMA to recoup any money spent on improving the waterways.
The proper balance of saltwater is need because "over-nutrified" water causes algae blooms such as the ones the ones currently in the St. Lucie River estuary, Mark Perry executive director of the Florida Oceanographic Society in Stuart told Scripps Treasure Coast Newspapers last week. When the algae dies, the bacteria eating the residue suck all the oxygen from the water. The result: fish kills.
On Friday, the Army Corps of Engineers announced discharges from Lake Okeechobee would be reduced for the second time in a week.
The new target flow through the St. Lucie Lock and Dam near Stuart, which dumps into the St. Lucie Estuary, will be 1.16 billion gallons a day.
Earlier, the corps cut the discharges, a combination of water from Lake Okeechobee and rainwater runoff from the St. Lucie (C-44) Canal, from about 3.1 billion gallons to about 1.8 billion gallons.
Since May 8, more than 146 billion gallons of water have poured through the lock and dam.

Denver independent monitor: Denver Sheriff's Office investigated 9 of 54 'serious' inmate complaints
Denver independent monitor recommends changes
DENVER - Denver's independent monitor says the Denver Sheriff's Department failed to follow policy in investigating 45 serious allegations of deputy misconduct during the past two years, including inmate claims that deputies choked them, sexually harassed them and used racial slurs.
Concerns and recommendations were included in a 78-page report released by Denver's Independent Monitor, Nicholas Mitchell. The Office of the Independent Monitor (OIM) conducted a policy and practice review of the inmate grievance process in the Denver Sheriff's Department (DSD).
According to the Denver Sheriff's Department, between Jan. 1, 2011 and June 30, 2013, approximately 6,000 grievances were filed by inmates in the Denver jail system. The OIM reviewed 861 written inmate complaints from that time frame.
Of the 861 grievances reviewed by the OIM, 54 were classified as "serious," and include allegations of inappropriate force, biased conduct and sexual misconduct. The majority of serious allegations of officer misconduct made by inmates to the DSD were never investigated by the Denver Sheriff's Department's Internal Affairs Bureau. The department's internal affairs bureau handled 9 of the 54 cases.
In the OIM report, Mitchell writes, "Under DSD (Denver Sheriff's Department) policy, allegations of serious misconduct are to be referred to and investigated by the DSD Internal Affairs Bureau (IAB). However, 45 of the complaints of serious misconduct -- including allegations of inappropriate force, non-consensual sexual touching, and biased behavior by deputies -- did not result in IAB cases."
7NEWS has confirmed that the Denver Sheriff's Department's department of corrections will conduct a second investigation, through the Internal Affairs Unit, of the grievances highlighted in the OIM report.
Denver County Sheriff's Office spokesman Major Frank Gale told 7NEWS, "If we determine that any officers engaged in misconduct, there will be discipline."
Another concern addressed in the OIM report is related to a Denver city ordinance that requires the Denver Sheriff's Department to notify his office of allegations of officer misconduct made by inmates.
"Our examination of the grievance process revealed that during the period of our review, the DSD did not routinely notify the OIM of allegations of deputy misconduct contained in inmate grievances, as required," Mitchell states.
According to Mitchell's report, of the 861 written grievances reviewed by the OIM, "None had been completed in either Spanish or other languages common to Denver's immigrant communities. The DSD may be able to provide broader and more inclusive access to the grievance process by making grievance forms available in languages that are common to inmates who are not yet English proficient."
"That's absolutely under consideration," said Gale.
In a statement released to 7NEWS, the Denver Sheriff's Department's Director of Corrections, Gary Wilson, stated, "The DSD has always welcomed review of our policies and practices by outside organizations as evidenced by our voluntary participation in three separate accreditation awards. We look forward to working with the OIM to improve upon our goals of the inmate grievance process."

Lily Allen keeps eye on the cricket at V Festival
Natalie Imbruglia's microphone breaks during day one
22 August 2009
The 'Smile' star couldn't contain her excitement during her 14-song show at the Chelmsford
leg of the event, as she learned that England had stretched their lead over Australia to more than 500 runs.
"We're thrashing the Aussies at the cricket," Allen declared, just before the national side did too, "I fucking love the cricket."
The star was on sparkling form matching her eye make-up as she ran through hits like 'LDN', 'The Fear' and 'It's Not Fair' as well as covering Britney Spears' 'Womanizer' and 'Oh My God' by the Kaiser Chiefs.
Dizzee Rascal was also at the top of his game as he mixed some of his old favourites like 'Just A Rascal' with upcoming single 'Holiday' and smash of the summer 'Bonkers'.
The rapper was in a playful mood on the 4 Music Stage in Chelmsford as he split the crowd into three and started an old fashioned who can cheer the loudest competition before DJ Semtex dropped fan-favourite 'Fix Up Look Sharp'.
A depleted N-Dubz made the most of their large audience in The Arena by getting one unsuspecting girl to join them onstage to sing. The group were reduced to a duo after singer Tulisa Contostavlos was forced to stay away because of suspected swine flu.
They did manage to squeeze hit single 'Number 1' into their shortened set but there was no collaboration with Tinchy Stryder, who raps on the record, despite him performing on the same stage just a few hours earlier.
Natalie Imbruglia's performance at the Staffordshire leg of V Festival was the most memorable of the day so far though, with the singer made to leave the stage after her microphone didn't work.
The star, who returned after a few minutes, made the most of the rest of set though playing new tracks 'Fun' and 'Want', which have both been co-written by Coldplay's Chris Martin.
But it was old classic 'Torn' that proved to be the most popular song of the show with the 1997 hit prompting a huge sing-a-ling from the massive crowd.
V Festival 2009 continues with performances from The Killers, Oasis, Fatboy Slim and more.

Nintendo president Satoru Iwata commented on a few topics ahead of the company's investor briefing set to take place later today.
Of Nintendo's buyback initiative, Iwata said that Hiroshi Yamauchi's heirs will have to pay inheritance taxes and may need to sell shares. He also remarked:
"That won't merit shareholders, that's why we decided on the buyback. But that's not all the reason. We've been rewarding our shareholders mainly through high dividends, but we cannot generate as much profit as we used to make."
Iwata and other top Nintendo executives – including Shigeru Miyamoto – will be taking pay cuts starting next month. But rather than focusing on how he would "take responsibility when things don't work out in the future," Iwata is instead concentrating "on how to rebuild Nintendo".
"I'm concentrating my mind on how to rebuild Nintendo rather than how I would take responsibility when things don't work out in the future."
Iwata later discussed Wii U, which "isn't in good shape."
"The Wii U isn't in good shape. That's the presumption we have as we consider reform."
More price cuts for Wii U are unlikely, as Iwata believes doing so would not spark fresh demand.
Last but not least, Iwata confirmed Nintendo's plans to discuss its strategy for "using smart devices" to jumpstart a turnaround during its investor briefing set to take place in several hours. We'll be covering it live at 8 PM ET.

"Jim's a tough guy and you can see his personality is all over this football team," Fitzgerald said.
Burke-Floor General and Defense
After watching Syracuse send two long, athletic guards to pester Burke around the half-court line, I suddenly knew what Shaka Smart meant about "heating up the point guard", but Burke did not overheat, so to speak...
That does not show up on the stat sheet but limiting turnovers was a huge plus.
I don't think he ever forced stuff. The games where he took a lot of shots were because nobody was stepping up and he needed to. If he didn't do that, then we lose a bunch of other games most notably Purdue, and our offense was one of the best in the country with an occasional bad game at MSU, at Ohio. The real reason we had seven losses was defense and rebounding which have been steller in the tournament.
Agree, many times he HAD to put the team on his back due to the younger players being timid at times. I still think that is why Syracuse openly talked so much trash. They wanted that Burke to show up and instead they got a no-ego facilitator that, stats aside, was the biggest reason we won that game.
I'm not criticizing you, but I can't understand this view, which others here seem to agree with, all with the "stats aside" caveat. I watched the entire game and did not think Burke was a factor at all--apart from the undeniable fact that Syracuse paid lots of attention to Burke. Now that does mean he was a important factor in the win, and Syracuse (and everyone else) building their game plans against him is an advantage in our favor, but this continues a trend that apart from one half has occurred the entire tournament. IMO, for the player of the year (deservedly so), and accounting for the fact that he has other talented players around him, he has not looked like it for most of this tournament. I think if you never watched him in the regular season and only saw him in the tournament, most people would be like "why does he get so much hype?"
You make great points and I actually see why you think that/have that opinion. I actually respect different opinions when said respectfully and I cannot necessarily disagree with anything you wrote aside from what I saw. What I saw in this game and others was teams coming in with the mentality of "whatever we do we have to shut Burke down af far as points go". In the regular season we often won and lost a few games due to him clearly feeling like he had to put the team on his back. In this tourney, he hasn't shot well or much at all (aside from spurts) and yet teams still focused on him so much it allowed guys like Mitch to go to another level. Not saying it's all Burke but if he is just and good guard this is a completely different team regular season and tourney. But it is all opinion/view and I think you made some great ones. Cannot outright deny them as much as respecfully disagree. GO BLUE!!!!!
And a better thread title. An orignal thought clearly expressed in the OP would be nice too, bro.
In this game it will be a must for the starters to step up and hit shots.
Agree 100%. Swear I said at the start of the tourney that IF we made it to the NCG, I want anyone but UL or Duke. We got UL. Burke cannot have another game where he puts up 0-4 in either half, The Canadian Sniper needs to hit shots, Mitch needs to keep his pace, THJ needs to stop with the garbage shots as when he takes his time and gets a clean look he is solid and I still think GR3 needs to stop being so timid and see he is, Freshman or not, probably the best pro prospect on our team with his tool set. He defers too much. Starters have to fire out the gate like they did against Florida.
We have established that we can win without hitting on all cylinders--Big 3 shooters 5 for 29 agin Cuse. We have now beaten (at least) 3 different types of defenses that were supposed to shut us down. Anyone watching the Wichita State game yesterday knows Louisville can be beaten and has its own share of limitations. If Louisville plays great, we just got to play "greater"---if we play poorly, we just got to make them play worse. One game---however, it gets done. And the fact that Trey didn't do anything special last night just makes me more optimistic that he will tomorrow.
Very valid point. It's funny how yesterday in the "Syracuse team talking trash about how their zone would kill us" I mentioned that of the 3 teams left (other than us), WS would be our worst match up but Louisville would be harder to beat. WS was no joke and played ball that would have fit right in with the rough B10. Also, we are very similar to louisville and their star guards played by far their worst game of the year. If not for their bench we play WS Monday. Yet, like us, when playing well they can beat anyone in America. IMO, it's the kind of matchup we like as far as tempo but with that tempo we NEED our Guards to outplay theirs. Staus can't go cold like he did last night and MM needs to keep playing out of his mind because we have a habit of going up 10+ and then getting lazy with garbage shots/decisions. louisville are like the comeback kids this year. No lead is safe. Should we get up on them like that we can't fast break off a UL miss and toss up a contested 3 with 20+ secs still on the shot clock (looking at you THJ). Just, as you said, gotta play better than them and their is no elite team in CBB this year. Anyone can win or lose based on their play/decisions regardless of talent. Without such a wicked zone, I'm hoping for a Michigan team running to a UF game type start even if UL is hitting shots early. We need Burke driving the lane eventually allowing kickouts to open shooters that have to drain them.
If told that Burke would play just about every game in the tourney having a scoreless or very low point total in any one half I'd have bet cash we get bounced by game 2. He has had his moments scoring (Kansas!) but overall has shot pretty poorly ans not very much. Yet, it's kind of an "ace in the hole" as we're beating (some beatdowns) some good teams with players who came into the tourney ice cold and, honestly, flat out playing with a different style/mindset. Scoring totals or not, Burke is still this team's season and tourney MVP. MM has been balling out but Burke makes it happen with everything else if he isn't scoring. Naismith is announced today, right? If not Burke is would be a robbery. Not a better COLLEGE player in America.
I should mention that MCGARY may be just as good as Burke is now, and this is NOT taking anything away from Burke..
mcgary is doing it alone inside like a superstar.
Project this tournament numbers over the course of the season and Mcgary would be all-american...
In fact he will be next year..
Oh, no doubt Mitch is not even the same player he was in the regular season. Something kicked on for him or he just decided he knew he could do more so he did. Something. I'd still call Burke our tourney MVP but mainly because we lose to Kansas without him and he still facilitates in other ways when not scoring. Mitch has been soaking up teams eyeing Burke. That (and not playing in the toughest conference every other night) may be what has caused Mitch to flip a tourney switch I didn't think he had yet.
I don't think it's a forgone conclusion that McGary is gone. He probably got himself in the first round, but there's elements of his game he still needs to work on. And if he plays like the tourney over a season, then he's a lottery pick, and can have a more successful NBA career.
Win or not, I don't see him leaving. Aside from his monster tourney run he looked like a 4 year Hansborough type player during the season. After the NCG, win or lose, people and scouts will remember that he had a very undraftable regular season. The tourney play got the talking heads bringing him up going early. Now, if he keeps it going into next year he could be gone then. I think we lose TB & THJ (even he I think may come back). Next year will be youth at guard but a much more assured GR3, Staus & Mitch staring with whoever wins the guard spots. Easily a Tourney team.
He just said like 2 days ago he's 100% coming back next year.
Guess he took that back when we beat UF and he got back to school. Probably just a mindset of "I can NBA ball based on what scouts are saying" but those scouts will look at his regular season remember that 6 games don't turn you from undrafted to a 1st runder. Plus, if he did in fact say he is now thinking about it (as some have reported) it could just be motivation for this team to win NOW! I don't think he goes but he did say 100% "no"......and then reports came out of him saying "well, i'm going to have to think about it". I'd wager he is here for at least another year, if not more if he gets keyed on by shock jumps by GR3, bad new guard play, etc.
If NBA scouts are telling him he's suddenly a lottery pick, that would be hard to pass up. Especially if MIchigan wins on Monday night.
No, even with his tourney play the highest he is projected is 24th, IIRC. In the NBA, that is like being an NFL 5th-6th rounder but with guaranteed money. I think, win or lose, he returns.
I disagree about tourney MVP. McGary has been the best and most consistent player on our team thoughout the tourney. Burke had the big 2nd half and OT against Kansas, but throughout the tournament it's been McGary.
Not knocking MM's amazing tourney run but Burke's point drop and MM's number gains are related. Burke facilitates his success and, love it like you should, we don't beat Kansas without Burke. Not even a game in the 2nd half if he doesn't go off.
True, but if he wasn't absent in the first half he wouldn't have had to go off like that in the 2nd half. Let's not forget that McGary had 25pts, 14reb, 3stl, 1ast, and 1blk in that game. We don't win without him either.
VERY TRUE and valid. Yet, don't forget the overall point that with MM's overall game and Burke's wnd half, we still were straight up outplayed and should have lost. Mitch got his numbers the entire game largely to Burke nd especially the first half. Mitch just isn't the guy who could have kept us in that game and tied with halfcourt 3s while down big under a minute. So, again, I agree we don't win without MM's play as well! I'd call him that games MVP. Just, overall, including Kansas and the others games Burke has been the biggest reason we're in the NCG. I'd call him our tourney MVP but another huge game and Mitch might win it record book, no opinion style. I'm not knocking the play of anyone but merely tossing out my opinion that is Burke was anything but the best player in America we're out of this tourney a few games back or last night.
Obviously the offense runs through Burke, and I'm not discounting anything he's done, I just feel McGary has been the more consistent and better overall player throughout the tourney. It's not a huge difference, but a difference nonetheless.
I absolutely get your point and it is really impossible to argue against or say it's wrong. MM has been the most consistent, by far. I just think due to Kansas alone and the attention Burke gets out of fear facilitates the success of others. It's just SO awesome to be able to have different opinions and both be amazing things, lol. Like, both are valid and regardless of which is more valid.....as fans either opinion is "everyone gets a round on me" worthy. haha
This may have been his best defensive game. 5 steals!
What should I title my threads?
Please make your thread titles as informative as possible: "Justin Feagin" is bad. "Justin Feagin leaving the team?" is good.
I knew you would be the one to post this.
About the rules of the board now, we are playing for a national title boys!!!! Go Blue!
Hardaway made the play of the game saving that Burke pass from going out of bounds. I still dont know how the hell he managed to do that, but that play may have saved that game for us. Not exactly a great game from either, but THE TEAM (THE TEAM THE TEAM) stepped up when it mattered.
Syracuse probably would have bricked the next shot anyways....but Hardaway's save did help us breathe easier faster...
Very very good point. Wasn't until the reply that I noticed how he somehow saved that. Being a bigger CFB fan (by far) I often look at their size:athleticism ratio and drool at the thought of guys like THJ lining at WR, lol. That save was stopping almost full sprint on a dime, stopping a momentum laden ball torching to the sideline and Tim reaching a long arm out to catch it, posess it and get rid of it. Another great play, for sure!
So tight around here, a guy titles a thread after the best player to step foot on this campus since Charles woodson and we bitch about a name of a thread. Get off my fuckingmlawn while you are at it. Jeesh! Guys like Woodson, Desmond, Trey, and a few other legends should be the exception for the title rule around here...it could be our way of recognizing them as the "greatest," they are bigger than any of us! Either way....lets win tomorrow and be Champs!
pedestrian in this tournament save for the brilliant second half versus Kansas. Sir Charles ALWAYS performed in the biggest games. You cannot say that for Burke.
Since you decided to bring in players from other sports I would have to remind you that Marty Turco and Brendan Morrison were here in 1998. I'd say both were better than Burke. This isn't to forget to mention Denard, Jake Long, Mike Hart, and a softball player or two.
Burke has had a great season, but he is behind Grant, Rose, and Ricky Green.
"Behind" anyone if he wins it all.
Trey has a chance to win a national title how many of those people on that list can say that.
Morrison won one (plus the Hobey Baker), and Turco won two.
Football and Basketball are kings. Comparisons to Charles and Desmond are viable, but don't bring hockey and softball into this. As far as talent and exposure go, those three and Denard are the upper echelon.
Football is king. Basketball comes next, but it doesn't approach football in importance.
Didnt play well last night but has been very important to this teams run. I just said trey has been the best player to come to Michigan since Woodson, we have had good players but really none who have accomplished as much as Trey. He has lead his team to the brink of a championship. Most on your list cannot say the same.
He only ended up taking three shots. 2 were for three and was such a boost off the bench. Why not go with the hot hand? But in the end, we won, great effort by everyone. . .
And Spike were the difference, still, I'm not gonna lie, as soon as Cariss catches the ball he makes me soooo nervous, but I thought particularly Spike should have played a little more if not for matchup problems on defense...
Did someone burn a couch in AA? If this is true can we stone them?
The Daily posted a picture of a bunch of people burning a couch on their Facebook account.
EDIT: Now with aforementioned picture.
