Well, after a poor offensive performance, the antidote: a Washington school. After the second half struggle against ASU, the Cougars were available to take a beating. Now, after a halting, inconsistent showing in Tucson, the 0-7 Washington Huskies come to the rescue, and they bring with them a lame duck head coach who ... |
Washington Offense vs. USC Defense |
The Husky offense is better than Washington State's…maybe. When Jake Locker was healthy, at least the Huskies had a playmaker who could do some things when the play broke down, and who made their read option game viable. Teams focused on him, which allowed the running backs to get loose some. But Locker injured his thu... |
Fouch has a pretty good arm, but he has been extremely inaccurate. He has completed less than 50% of his passes, and has 4 TDs and 4 INTs in three games. He's about at Locker's level as a passer, but now Washington is no threat on the ground, which forces them to be a pass first team, and Fouch is not capable of leadin... |
Washington still lines up a lot of times in the shotgun spread. They are just less likely to run out of the formation than they were before Locker's injury. Generally, they run the ball most out of the I or ace formations. They do that to reinforce execution, but it also makes them predictable. They are for the most pa... |
The Huskies have had a young guy emerge at wide receiver in D'Andre Goodwin. But they have not been able to get any deep game going with him or speedster freshman Jermaine Kearse because of poor quarterback and line play. They only threw the ball deep once the whole game against Notre Dame, and the throw went well out ... |
The line has just been a disaster. They've given up 20 sacks in seven games, which puts them in WSU and UCLA territory. They average 2.8 yards per carry. The bad part about it is that Washington is starting a mostly veteran group on the front, and have not got much production. Is it talent, coaching, or both? I'm not s... |
Washington Defense vs. USC Offense |
This team gives up more yards per game than any team in the Pac-10, including Washington State. Unlike the Cougs, the Huskies don't just sit back in their base defense. They really tried to mix it up against Notre Dame because the viewed the ND line as a weakness, and they did manage to pressure Jimmy Clausen quite a b... |
Washington experimented with a 3-4 last week in the face of Notre Dame's five wide looks. I don't think we'll see much of that except on third and long. Generally the Huskies line up in a tradition 4-3, and the weakside backer heads out to the slot in a three wide look. The backers play at regular depth, although they ... |
There's really nothing that UW is good at on defense. They give up 5.7 yards per carry. Even the punchless Irish running game topped 200 yards. They have the second worse pass efficiency defense in the nation because opponents compete about 70% of their passes with 19 TDs and three INTs, and average over nine yards per... |
There's not much to say here. They have a serious talent shortage. Their secondary is not good enough to do much gambling, but they do anyway. They get little pass rush even when they blitz. As a result, they give up 40 points and 480 yards per game. |
Add that the Huskies might have the worst special teams in the Pac-10, and you've got a team that has little talent and is poorly coached. The Cougs are the only team that the Huskies have a prayer of beating without Locker. The Trojans are going to completely shut down the Washington offense, and the USC offense will ... |

Isotopic spin was known from the nuclear physics observations, that the spin 1/2 proton and neutron also had an isotopic spin. This drew the attention to the special unitary group SU(2) and special unitary groups in general. |
It became apparent with the results of scattering experiments that resonances appearing in the scattering of protons by pions and kaons could be classified in some representation of the SU(3) group. |
The organizational system got the zen name " eightfold way" and was all the rage when I was a graduate student back in 1962. |
In addition to organizing the mesons and spin-1/2 baryons into an octet, the principles of the Eightfold Way also applied to the spin-3/2 baryons, forming a decuplet. However, one of the particles of this decuplet had never been previously observed. Gell-Mann called this particle the Ω− and predicted in 1962 that it wo... |
enter image description here |
It very soon led to the proposal of the quark model by Gellman and Zweig, but the group classification and the data which led to it preceded the quark model, including the observation of the delta++. |
The truth be told, it was the observation of how beautifully the resonance data of the baryons could be organized into representations of SU(3) that led to the three quark model of the baryons. When one has 2 basic units one can have an SU(2) symmetry as was the case of isotopic spin symmetry. When one has SU(3) the ex... |

Wall Street life |
Wall Street life |

Building unrest in the Big Apple |
What's happened to New York? Once upon a time, the City that never sleeps didn't have time to put its head down because it was too busy building towering skyscrapers and bridges that provoked gasps of awe. It was the place to make a name for yourself, where dreams were made and everything was possible. |
No longer. The announcement this week that months of political wrangling had stymied the building of a new stadium in Manhattan has just about ended the city's hopes of staging the Olympics and kills the city's image as a place to get things done. |
Few will mourn the loss of the stadium. Support for the Olympics was lukewarm at best and if there was a few hundred million of public money going spare, politicians were never short of people telling them where they could shove it. |
Instead, the protesters - be they environmental, pro-children, anti-business or any number of esoteric self-interest groups - have learnt to play the game and are developing PR skills even their seasoned opponents are lacking. |
Senator Charles Schumer summed it up in a speech to business leaders tired of having their schemes blocked. "A culture of inertia has set in. Criticism predominates over construction; critics are given more weight than those trying to build. It doesn't matter how small a constituency or how flawed an argument the criti... |
Recent problems with the Freedom Tower - the replacement for the Twin Towers - are another example and these arouse far greater passions. If this symbolic building, little closer to being built than it was in September 2001, can't get off the ground, then what chance for lesser projects? |
RPS is taking off |
Takashi Hashiyama must have a sense of humour. In one of the most bizarre stories to emerge in recent weeks, the Japanese businessman, finding it difficult to decide who should have the honour of auctioning off his art collection, told experts from Sotheby's and Christie's to play a sudden death game of Rock Paper Scis... |
Christie's, which spent many hours researching strategies, went with scissors. Sotheby's, which decided it was a game of chance, went into the game blind and chose paper. Christie's won. |
This should not be dismissed as a one-off tale of a man with too much time and money and not enough sense. In Asia, where Rock Paper Scissors originated and is often known as Jankenpo, many business decisions are taken after a quick round of RPS. |
Fortune magazine even suggests it may be taking over in the West. It cites ThoughtWorks, a Chicago based IT company where the game is used to settle disagreements and plan strategies. |
The game has even prompted a film, Rock Paper Scissors: The Movie, which has been labelled by the World RPS Society (Yes, one does exist) as "the most ambitious Rock Paper Scissors documentary in history". Wow. That's got to be worth seeing. |
The Toronto-based society claims to date its history back to the England of 1842 when a law was passed stating "any decision reached by the use of the process known as Paper Scissors Stone between two gentleman acting in good faith shall constitute a binding contract". There is something rather attractive in the though... |
Grilling season |
First it was exorbitant petrol prices that caught America's attention. Booming house prices took over as the economic headline grabber of the day. Now a far more serious threat to the nation's sense of well-being has emerged. |
As America enters the "summer grilling season", beef prices have risen to near record levels. A decent cut will now set you back around $4.25 a pound, just shy of the all-time $4.32 record set back in 2003 when food scares and mad cows steered prices higher. |
This time, the US Department of Agriculture blames the drought that has turned parts of the Mid West into a tinderbox. The lack of rain means a scarcity of food for the cattle and ranchers in the west have thinned their herds drastically. Americans consumed 27.6billion pounds of beef in 2004, up 25pc over the past five... |
Butchers are even being forced into the ultimate heresy - urging customers to eat pork - otherwise it's their wallets as well as the meat that are going to be raked over hot coals. |

Interfaith shelter to open today |
Rastle added that Interfaith's shelter in past years has offered lodging to illegal immigrants who work in the region's farmlands during the day. This year, foreign nationals who want to use the shelter will have to prove they are legally in the United States, she said. |
Shelter officials seem most worried about people who find themselves on the streets temporarily because they either lost their jobs or can't afford the San Diego region's high rents. Rastle said there are a lot more programs for people with other problems -- like drug abuse. |
"There are so many things available for people if they are addicted to drugs or alcohol or are a veteran," Rastle said. "But for a plain old male who is just working at a low-income job, it is hard for him to get in any place." |
There is a possible solution for those homeless people, but it depends on the goodwill of local congregations. |
The Interfaith Shelter Network routinely works with 60 congregations each winter to offer a rotating, 12-bed shelter at a different church or synagogue each week, said Rosemary Johnston, the network's program director. |
Johnston said she has nine North County coastal congregations participating in the shelter service, which opened Nov. 19 and will run until March 25. But in inland North County, there are only six congregations willing to participate in the shelter service, which is set for Dec. 29 through March 25. |
"We haven't gotten a lot of interest in churches participating in the North County," she said. "And we are seeing a lot more normal seniors citizens becoming homeless. They are not making the income they need to maintain their own shelter. It is really horrible." |
She added that many senior citizens are retired and living on fixed incomes that are tied to the state of the economy. The recently sluggish stock market hits many seniors in the pocketbook and forces some to the streets, Johnston added. |
Johnston is asking for local congregations to host a shelter this year. Rastle is asking for volunteers to help prepare food at the armory or donate new or used blankets, towels and clothes to the shelter. |
For information on the shelter network, call (619)-702-5399. For Interfaith, call (760) 489-6380. |

I did my first "real" deadlift today, and, it's a very different feeling. Unlike a squat or a bench, where I clearly feel myself pushing against something, when I deadlifted (135 lbs, about what I'm squatting), I just kind of stood up. When I was done, I was sweating and exhausted, but I didn't feel the push-higher-hig... |
Am I doing it right? What is a deadlift supposed to feel like? |

The short answer is that you aren't deadlifting enough to really feel anything. You can pull more weight on a deadlift than just about any other compound exercise. The big thing to concentrate on is: |
Keep your back straight. |
Concentrate on keeping a rigid back as you lift the bar up. Pull all the slack out of your body before initiating the pull. And add more weight. |

You didn't feel like you were pushing anything because you weren't. You're holding on to something and standing up. Most of the time a heavy deadlift feels to me like squeezing everything tight, locking it in place, and standing up. |
Once you get real heavy--one and a half times bodyweight, probably, but your mileage may vary--you'll feel a "higher-higher-higher-come-on-stand-up" feeling. Right now you're not close enough to your maximum to get that. |

I don't know if it's "supposed" to feel like anything in particular, but it may take some time to develop the mind/muscle connection if you're unused to specifically activating the deadlift muscles. |
It also matters which style of deadlift you're doing, for example, there are differences between stiff-legged deadlifts (erectors, hips, butt, some thighs) and "traditional" deadlifts (same plus a bunch more, great overall exercise). |
You'll also want to make sure your form is pretty dead-(lift)on, you're "blocking" appropriately, and so on. Having someone to work with when doing an exercise like the deadlift is pretty important since the risk of a back injury is greater than with a lot of other exercises--slipping a disk is unpleasant, I'm told. |
That you're ending up feeling pretty worked leads me to believe you're doing "traditional" deadlifts. Since it's an-almost-entire-body exercise, you won't necessarily feel the "I'm working this specific muscle" feeling you get from more-targeted movements like the bench or squat. |
