The Anatomy of Two Firings – Sports Central

I listened to the Eastern Michigan/Arizona State game on the radio this past Saturday. Why radio? Because I've been trying in general to listen to more sports on the radio in general lately, and specifically when it's late and I'm trying to prepare for sleep, to try to allow the words to paint a bit of a picture in my head as I head to dreamland.

I was quite pleased with the result, a 9-point Eastern Michigan victory, for a number of reasons. One, you know I love me some upsets. Two, I lamented the paucity of upsets in my Week 1 column, but Weeks 2 and 3 have more than made up for that. Three, I like Eastern Michigan. They are my second favorite MAC team behind my hometown Akron Zips. I feel bad for them, because they don't really get to claim any geographical purview of their own, sharing a county with the University of Michigan.

I was quite surprised, however, to learn that after the game, Herm Edwards was relieved of his duties as ASU head coach.

I still remember hearing about Edwards' hiring five years ago, and, like a lot of people, I found it to be a real head-scratcher. American football fans, even semi-casual ones, are familiar with Edwards. Perhaps most of us knew him first as the beneficiary of the most famously boneheaded error in NFL history. Then, we knew him as the head coach of the Chiefs and Jets, the latter of whom he guided to three playoff berths in five years.

Still, most of us know him from his viral clip where he took great offense to a suggestion that the Jets might punt on a season that started irredeemably poorly..

Edwards can count himself lucky that his viral moment is one where he comes off well: passionate and with deep convictions.

So what I'm saying is, he's a likable guy, but when ASU hired him as head coach, he had been off the sidelines for 9 years, had finished 19-46 in his last four seasons coaching in the NFL, and had virtually no college coaching experience. It didn't seem like a good move.

But it kind of worked! Kind of. He went 26-20 as the Sun Devils head coach, including 17-14 in Pac 12 play.

No fan base is clamoring for 17-14 in conference games, but 1) it does keep you ahead of the median, and 2) not every school can have the expectations of an Alabama or an Ohio State. At those schools, 17-14 is fireable. In the Pac-12, it's probably fireable for Oregon, USC, and maybe UCLA and Utah.

Other schools need to take whatever success they can get. If that sounds harsh, understand that what I mean by that is if you aspire to be a perennial contender, or at least better than making a bowl every other year, you need to start with stability. Impulsive firings, especially ones that take place mid-season, is the breeding ground of instability.

And make no mistake, this was an impulsive firing. Proponents of Edwards' ouster might point to the NCAA looking into recruiting violations and misdeeds by the Edwards' regime, and I'm not defending those. I am saying, however, if you want to can a guy for not running a clean program, the offseason is the time to do it. By allowing him to start the season, you are sending a clear message of support for that coach.

Bottom line: I'm just having a real hard time buying any argument that Edwards wasn't chiefly fired for losing to Eastern Michigan, and I think his on-field results warranted surviving that loss, especially since he want undefeated against rival Arizona in his tenure.

Then there's the case of the other mid-season firing of note, Scott Frost. I don't think I've ever seen a hot seat as hot as the one Scott Frost came out of last season with. My heart bled for him, because I was certain that he was going to get fired, which after that record number of close losses just made him seem incredibly unlucky. I grant that if you never win close games, as seemed to be the case with Frost, the problem might be larger, and more resolvable, than luck.

Still, I thought keeping him on by the powers that be at Nebraska, and allowing him the chance to redeem himself, was the right move. Then he lost a close loss again to Northwestern. Ouch!

Then, two weeks later, you know what happened: another close loss not to a ruddy-cheeked, stout Big Ten West foe, but Georgia Southern. Major, major upset, as Georgia Southern was +22.5 underdogs and Nebraska is just in another league, figuratively and literally, in terms of resources, support, and money.

Mid-season firings, as I stated, engenders instability, and should only be done in drastic cases. This was one of those. Frost survived the offseason by the skin of his teeth, and then doubled down in the most horrific of ways on the reason his job was in jeopardy to begin with.

But what made this an especially savvy move by Nebraska is that they fired them when they did. They could have waited until October 1st or after, and saved themselves $7.5 million by so doing; October 1st was the prescribed date in Frost's contract that states his buyout drops from $15 million to $7.5 million (approximately) if he is still head coach.

Nebraska's season is already shot, so why not just wait a few weeks and save yourself some money? The only reason is to send a message to your legion of supporters and fans: this isn't acceptable to us, either. It was an expensive, but warranted and important gesture to Nebraska fans.

Frost was a Husker hero from his playing days who achieved nigh unimaginable success coaching Central Florida. He was hired as Nebraska's head coach on December 3, 2017. Edwards was hired by Arizona State the day before. In terms of their tenures at their most recent schools, they are almost exact contemporaries.

Put another way: Frost was the right hire, and was fired at the exact right time. Edwards, at least on paper, was the wrong hire, exceeded expectations, earned more of a leash than he got, and was fired at the exact wrong time. Expect Nebraska to succeed on the field again sooner than Arizona State.

Rogba & Bio Arimoro Talk about the Anatomy of a Relationship and their Podcast Love and Everything In Between – BellaNaija

Film and TV director, Rogba Arimoro, known for his films Faultlines and Tokunbo and also for the popular TV show Judging Matters is no stranger to lights and cameras but hes usually the one behind the camera not in front of it.

After being married to his wife, Bio for over 11 years and working together for 3 years, Its safe to say that theyve been through quite a lot together.

They recently decided to audit their relationship and realised that there were quite a lot of things that they wished that they had known before saying I Do.

This audit and their decision to share resulted in the Love and Everything in Between podcast.

They sat down to have a quick word with them about the entire experience.

How did you meet?

Rogba: Its quite an interesting story and the telling of it depends on who you ask (Bio laughs). We met at the University of Lagos when we both transferred to the department of Actuarial Science. We were both in relationships at the time and instead of doing the smart thing by ending those, we jumped into an affair and snuck around for a couple of months. We eventually decided to stop hurting our significant others and broke it off with them to actively pursue an actual relationship.

How was it coming clean?

Bio: Coming clean is never easy. It was messy, and theres nothing quite as horrible as looking at the pain in someones eyes as you tell them that youve intentionally betrayed their trust for no just reason.

Rogba: Cheating on anyone is a completely unfair thing to do to them. Looking back, its a cowardly way to handle dissatisfaction in your relationship. But coming clean was hard but also liberating. Lies thrive in secrecy and darkness and its a heavy burden to carry but once its out there, you feel lighter.

Starting a relationship the way that you did, would you say it affected your relationship in anyway?

Rogba: We almost didnt make it. Its a whole different ball game when theres no more thrill of hiding but we decided from day one to be completely honest with each other no matter what. We were friends first and we decided to always keep that part of our relationship at the fore. Its the secret sauce that has kept us going till now.

Bio: We were friends before we started dating and when we decided to give a serious relationship a try, we told each other that if it didnt work we would not throw the friendship away. It wasnt easy at the beginning but we kept at it and here we are.

You both work in the same industry; that can be difficult for married people to do. How do you cope with that?

Rogba: Working together can be challenging; especially when youre both driven to excellence. We had quite a few clashes at the beginning but quickly learnt that the key is professionalism. Keep work and your personal relationship separate. Anything else is a recipe for disaster.

Bio: We have a very strict rule now that work and marriage must be kept in separate silos. There are projects weve worked on where many people are surprised at the end to find out that were married.

In the first few episodes of your podcast, we hear a lot of talk about a list. Can you tell us about this list?

Bio: I didnt have much on my list. I just wanted to be sure that he would take care of me, stand by me and protect me. He had a very long list where he wanted to know how many times we would have sex, who would handle what financially, etc. To be truthful sha, his list helped shape our marriage and make it better. I was in la-la-land and that never helped anyone.

Rogba: The list was basically a checklist of questions about our thoughts and beliefs on a range of topics. It included important things like spirituality, money, sex, number of kids etc. all the way down to the mundane things like pressing toothpaste from the end or middle, toilet seat up or down, etc. I felt it was important to completely understand each others views on all things pertaining to being in a relationship and see how compatible we were in those regards. We knew that these things were not necessarily cast in stone, but they provided a strong foundation upon which we would build the rest of our relationship.

Why this podcast?

Rogba: Over our 11 years of marriage, weve been through quite a number of circumstances and encountered a lot of challenges that no one told us about or we couldnt have envisioned. Recently, we were clearing out some old stuff and found bits of our original checklist and reading through those questions again, we decided to audit our relationship and took it a step further to speak to several other couples as well as a few separated/divorced friends. We realized that a lot of these challenges werent necessarily unique to us and the phrase I wish someone had told us. came up a lot; We thought about it and decided why not share our journey with other people. It would hopefully provide some helpful tips for people who are thinking about getting married as well as some sort of context for people who were already in committed relationships. Its really not about giving anyone specific advice because we arent experts, but we know that weve had an interesting journey and feel like it would have been great to have had some of this information ahead.

Bio: Yup. We could have saved ourselves a lot of fights and headaches.

What would you say has been the glue that has kept you guys together so far?

Rogba: Well, friendship is the first thing. Even if we werent together anymore, we like to believe that we would still be friends. That has been an immovable part of our relationship from the start. Even when we broke up a few times, we somehow managed to keep that part of us alive.

Also, some key similar interests also helped. For example, our love of travel together, similar tastes in music, and our interest in film and tv entertainment.

Can you give a summary of 12 years of marriage; how youve navigated some of the biggest challenges such as almost dying, health challenges as well, and family living with you?

Rogba: The first thing about being in a committed relationship is to see your spouse as an equal partner in your relationship. Constant open and honest communication is a close second. Better to fight and settle than to pretend. Once you have these 2 things in place, you can handle anything.

Bio: We have always been real and true with each other, and I think that is what has helped us so far. We are very in tune with each other. Sometimes even without saying a word and just sharing a look we know what the other person is thinking. I love our friendship and wouldnt trade it for anything else.

What was it like recording the podcast?

Rogba: Shooting a podcast is quite different from making a film or a tv show but its been a truly fun and enriching experience. We also learnt a thing or two along the way. We started out recording just ourselves and then we got some of our good friends Ibrahim and Linda Suleiman, Temi and Scarlet Gomez, and a number of other people to join us to give proper perspective on some of the topics that we explored.

What has the reception to the podcast been like?

Bio: The reception has been better than we could ever have hoped. Weve gotten messages, phone calls and comments from so many people telling us how interesting they found the content and how the episodes have helped improve their relationships and understanding of their significant others.

21 Ridiculously Cheesy Or Stupid TV Scenes And Lines That Literally Ruined The Entire Show – BuzzFeed

TV shows almost always get worse as they go that's to be expected. Usually, the decline is gradual. But sometimes, something so out of pocket and bizarre happens that you literally decide "that's it. I am never watching this show again." Here are 21 TV moments and lines that were ridiculously out of place, tonally off, over the top, or just plain badly written/acted. 1. On Glee, when they performed "Gangnam Style" and made Tina one of the only significant Asian characters* do the rap: 2. On Grey's Anatomy, when the staff sang "How to Save a Life" while, erm...saving a life: 3. On Teen Wolf, when Scott was "forced" to bite Liam because otherwise he'd fall from the edge of a building and die: 4. On Riverdale, when Edgar tried to escape in a homemade rocket: 5. On Euphoria, when Elliot took up a full four minutes of an important episode with a song that meant absolutely nothing to the plot: 6. On One Tree Hill, when Dan finally went in to get a heart transplant and then A DOG ATE IT: 7. On Angel, when Cordelia slept with Connor because the world was ending: 8. I also just have to nominate when Cordelia comes down the stairs, suddenly pregnant with Connor's baby, in this ensemble: I can't find the clip, but it's at the end of 4x15. You can watch the show on Amazon! 9. On The Secret Life of the American Teenager, when Grace's dad died right as she had sex for the first time and then there was a scene where she blamed herself and uttered this iconic line: 10. When Deb admitted her feelings for Dexter (her brother) on Dexter: 11. Similarly, on Friends, when Ross tried to kiss his cousin: 12. Also on Friends, when Joey proposes to Rachel: 13. When a flash-forward revealed that Caroline and Alaric (her former teacher and the only consistent parental figure in the series) were ENGAGED: I can't find the above scene, but it's at the end of 7x06. You can watch the show on HBO Max. 14. Though tied for a close second is the scene at the end of the same episode, when it's revealed that Jo's twins were magically transported into Caroline's womb the season prior, and Caroline a vampire is now pregnant: 15. On Pretty Little Liars, when Aria was implanted with Emily's eggs: 16. On WandaVision, when Monica acted like Wanda was the hero of the show: 17.

Audio deepfakes are a major threat heres how researchers expose them – Inverse

Imagine the following scenario: A phone rings. An office worker answers it and hears his boss, in a panic, tell him that she forgot to transfer money to the new contractor before she left for the day and needs him to do it. She gives him the wire transfer information, and with the money transferred, the crisis has been averted.

The worker sits back in his chair, takes a deep breath, and watches as his boss walks in the door. The voice on the other end of the call was not his boss. In fact, it wasnt even a human. The voice he heard was that of an audio deepfake, a machine-generated audio sample designed to sound exactly like his boss.

Attacks like this using recorded audio have already occurred, and conversational audio deepfakes might not be far off.

Deepfakes, both audio and video, have been possible only with the development of sophisticated machine learning technologies in recent years.

Voice-only communications greatly expand the possibilities for attackers to use deepfakes.Kanok Sulaiman/Moment/Getty Images

Deepfakes have brought with them a new level of uncertainty around digital media. To detect deepfakes, many researchers have turned to analyze visual artifacts minute glitches and inconsistencies found in video deepfakes.

Audio deepfakes potentially pose an even greater threat because people often communicate verbally without video for example, via phone calls, radio, and voice recordings. These voice-only communications greatly expand the possibilities for attackers to use deepfakes.

To detect audio deepfakes, our research colleagues at the University of Florida and we have developed a technique that measures the acoustic and fluid dynamic differences between voice samples created organically by human speakers and those generated synthetically by computers.

Attackers only need 10 to 20 seconds of audio of the target persons voice.CSA-Printstock/DigitalVision Vectors/Getty Images

Humans vocalize by forcing air over the various structures of the vocal tract, including vocal folds, tongue, and lips. By rearranging these structures, you alter the acoustical properties of your vocal tract, allowing you to create over 200 distinct sounds or phonemes.

However, human anatomy fundamentally limits the acoustic behavior of these different phonemes, resulting in a relatively small range of correct sounds for each.

In contrast, audio deepfakes are created by first allowing a computer to listen to audio recordings of a targeted victim speaker. Depending on the exact techniques used, the computer might need to listen to as little as 10 to 20 seconds of audio. This audio is used to extract key information about the unique aspects of the victims voice.

The attacker selects a phrase for the deepfake to speak and then, using a modified text-to-speech algorithm, generates an audio sample that sounds like the victim saying the selected phrase. This process of creating a single deepfaked audio sample can be accomplished in a matter of seconds, potentially allowing attackers enough flexibility to use the deepfake voice in a conversation.

By estimating the anatomy responsible for creating the observed speech, its possible to identify whether the audio was generated by a person or a computer.Shutterstock

The first step in differentiating speech produced by humans from speech generated by deepfakes is understanding how to acoustically model the vocal tract. Luckily scientists have techniques to estimate what someone or some being such as a dinosaur would sound like based on anatomical measurements of its vocal tract.

We did the reverse. By inverting many of these same techniques, we were able to extract an approximation of a speakers vocal tract during a segment of speech. This allowed us to effectively peer into the anatomy of the speaker who created the audio sample.

From here, we hypothesized that deepfake audio samples would fail to be constrained by the same anatomical limitations humans have. In other words, the analysis of deepfaked audio samples simulated vocal tract shapes that do not exist in people.

Our testing results not only confirmed our hypothesis but revealed something interesting. When extracting vocal tract estimations from deepfake audio, we found that the estimations were often comically incorrect. For instance, it was common for deepfake audio to result in vocal tracts with the same relative diameter and consistency as a drinking straw, in contrast to human vocal tracts, which are much wider and more variable in shape.

This realization demonstrates that deepfake audio, even when convincing to human listeners, is far from indistinguishable from human-generated speech. By estimating the anatomy responsible for creating the observed speech, its possible to identify whether the audio was generated by a person or a computer.

Why it matters Todays world is defined by the digital exchange of media and information. Everything from news to entertainment to conversations with loved ones typically happens via digital exchanges. Even in their infancy, deepfake video and audio undermine the confidence people have in these exchanges, effectively limiting their usefulness.

If the digital world is to remain a critical resource for information in peoples lives, effective and secure techniques for determining the source of an audio sample are crucial.

Anatomy of a Goal: Cucho Hernandez heads home his ninth goal of the season – Massive Report

Welcome to the Anatomy of a Goal, where each week we dissect one goal (or near goal) from a previous Columbus Crew match. For match 30 of the 2022 MLS season, we look at Cucho Hernandezs 41st minute goal that evened the match during the Crews 2-1 loss at Inter Miami on Tuesday.

Heres a look at the goal from Columbuss striker.

The Black & Gold trekked down to Ft. Lauderdale following a strong showing in Montreal that was upended by a late-game collapse following a Luis Diaz red card. Facing off against Inter Miami without Diaz, and with points crucial to retaining a spot in the MLS Cup playoffs, Kevin Molino stepped into the starting lineup, giving Columbus another creative option in the attack.

Hernandezs goal begins with a long Miami switch of fields that is misplayed. The ball bounces high into the air as left back Will Sands and winger Derrick Etienne Jr. battle for possession.

Etienne wins the ball and sets off toward midfield.

Under defensive pressure, Etienne turns the ball back toward the Columbus goal and surveys the field.

Etienne buys himself some time and space and has four options. He can play a quick pass forward to Hernandez, carry the ball forward, try a square pass to Molino or hit a diagonal drop to Darlington Nagbe.

The winger moves the attack forward and plays a quick pass toward Hernandez.

Molino and right back Steven Moreira take off on the attack while Hernandez lets the ball run across his body and out in front of him.

As the ball moves forward, Hernandez shifts his position to shield the ball from the Inter Miami defender and can either play a long pass forward to midfielder Lucas Zelarayan, carry the ball forward, play a touch pass to Molino or hit a long diagonal pass into the path of Moreira.

Hernandez spots Moreiras run and hits a ball into the space in front of the right back.

Moreira receives the ball and immediately has three options. He can continue forward toward the Miami goal, try a tough pass back to Hernandez or play a drop back to Molino.

Moreira touches the ball back to Molino and sets off down the field.

Molino receives the ball with yards of space to operate. He carries forward as the Black & Gold attack develops.

Molino approaches Ari Lassiter and must decide whether to. He can send the ball back to Moreira, take Lassiter off the dribble or play a square pass to Hernandez.

Molino slows down and then uses a quick burst of speed to easily carry the ball around Lassiter.

Just in front of Miamis defensive block, Molino has another decision to make. He can play a through pass forward to Moreira, attempt to carry the ball into the Inter goal box or play a difficult pass through the defense toward Hernandez.

Molino hits a perfectly-timed pass in front of Moreira, allowing the right back to stay onside.

Moreira sprints toward the ball as the Crew attackers make runs into the goal box. Zelarayan makes a run toward the back of the penalty box, Hernandez dashes toward the penalty spot and Molino continues toward the goal.

Moreira approaches the ball and must decide between four options for his first touch. He can take a touch around defender Christopher McVey toward the goal, play a long pass across the 18-yard box to Zelarayan, try a cross toward Hernandez near the penalty spot or play a short pass on the ground toward Molino.

Columbus right back spots Hernandez and tees up a cross for his eighth assist of the season.

Moreiras cross loops toward the penalty spot as Aime Mabika and Hernandez try to time the balls trajectory.

Mabika and Hernandez both jump for the ball...

...but Mabika is unable to reach it as Hernandez tees up a headed chance at goal.

Hernandez takes an open header toward Drake Callenders goal.

As he has done a few times this season, Hernandez heads the ball down into the ground, looking to use the bounce to make a save more difficult for Callender.

The ball takes a bounce and continues toward the goal, leaving Callender to watch as the ball bounds past him...

...into the back of the net.

Anatomy Of An Ad: How Woolmark Made Its Bold Ad Showing People Covered In Crude Oil – The Drum

Earlier this month, fashion brand The Woolmark Company made a stance on synthetic clothing with a dramatic campaign that featured people trying to escape a swimming pool filled with murky crude oil.

The brief was founded on the statistic that every 25 minutes, an Olympic-size swimming pools worth of crude oil is used in the production of polyester garments. It wanted to make that shocking stat known to shoppers worldwide.

Initially Woolmark approached film directors Sil van der Woerd and Jorik Dozy, from production company Park Village, who worked on the Wasteminster campaign from Greenpeace last year. That campaign stood out as it talked sensibly and factually about environmental issues, says van der Woerd, and thats what Woolmark wanted to achieve.

With Wasteminster we visualized big data, something that hadnt been seen before, he adds. Its kind of funny how we did that in this campaign as well, albeit in a very different format, but it brought something to light that wasnt seen before an urgent, almost invisible, issue.

The brand also drafted in ad agency 20Something. The original pitch was a strategic one, recalls co-founder Will Thacker. How can we position Woolmark in the sustainability category?

According to Thacker, it was like awakening a sleeping beast because the idea of plastics being bad for the environment is well documented, yet when it comes to clothes, the repercussions are still often overlooked. The brief was to bring the stat to life but also demonstrate the benefits of wool as well, not for it to be just a negative campaign.

With any kind of data, the key is to get as many people to understand it as simplistically as possible. You need to put it in a really simple format, says Adam Booth, managing partner at Park Village. Its the size of a swimming pool imagine that times however many.

Having both directors engaged from day one was pivotal to the success of the campaign, which took around six months from pitch to completion. It goes towards informing the final product in a positive way, adds Booth, instead of the directors being parachuted in at the last minute to shoot something that they dont necessarily understand.

To amplify the film further, a striking 3D billboard ad at Piccadilly Circus, London, and Times Square, New York, has intrigued locals. It was made in-house by Samuel Guillotel, who will be heading up the agencys new division thats devoted to all things 3D. It was really important that it turned up in the real world, comments Thacker. The outdoor sites shout and have a big impact. The photographic static aspects are going to surround those cities at Fashion Week and it will shout to that audience.

Launching during New York fashion week is a bold move. What do they want the eventgoers to take away? I hope it raises consciousness about what we wear, where it comes from and how polluting it is. Thats the first big step what is actually on our bodies? says van der Woerd.

Getting people to think about what they wear and the impact that has is key. Hopefully it wakes people up to the fact that theyre wearing oil in that sense, adds Jorik.

Anamorphic billboards are certainly the hot advertising trend of the moment theyre bold and in your face but measuring the success of them can be tricky. Thacker hopes that the project has some sort of social currency and that it will start conversations down the pub, firstly with the film but then the hard facts to back it up.

Of course, when any big brand touts its green credentials it is open to greenwashing criticism. From van der Woerds experience, it can be tricky to navigate as there are no guidelines and no books, but he notes that asking the basic questions at the beginning helps: what is it the brand is trying to sell, and how are products produced?

Woolmark itself is probably not squeaky clean in all things green, but the material itself is from nature and can be put back into nature, concludes Thacker.

I think its worthwhile fighting that corner.

Ice cool temperament and a beautifully smooth serve the anatomy of Roger Federer – The Times

At the beginning of his career, Federers attitude was not good. His temperament often got the better of him. Then he made a conscious change to look ice cool, to appear in control. The hunger to stay at the top requires a special mentality and he was there for many years. Im sure he got nervous but he was able to deal with the pressure. He also accepted that he had to make changes to his game, even when he was at No 1.

Federer came to Glasgow to play Andy Murray in 2017, and I sat next to his coach, Ivan Ljubicic. He played a couple of early forehands perfectly down the line. Ivan said: Its incredible how quickly he sees an opportunity. I

Anatomy of a Goal: Not defending the throw-in Equalizer Soccer – Equalizer Soccer

The Washington Spirit collected their first National Womens Soccer League win in more than four months over the weekend, during the coaching debut of Albertin Montoya. So, it seems a but cruel to highlight a goal they conceded to the San Diego Wave.

But this one was scored off a throw-in, which makes it a bit atypical and also highlights some of what has gone wrong in Washington in what will turn out to be a futile attempt to defend the NWSL Championship. As a bonus the goal was scored by Jaedyn Shaw, who has found the back of the net in both appearances for the Wave sandwiched around a trip to the U-20 World Cup.

The Wave had the Spirit under the hammer early on and nearly scored in the opening minute of the match. Winning a throw-in in the 7th minute, the Wave struck quickly, and caught the Spirit in an all-too-familiar moment of lackadaisical defending.
