Messi, Grain De Sable Pour Zidane
Sport / Sports Real-Barça Messi, grain de sable pour Zidane ©D. R. Il s'était égaré en Ligue des champions mais Lionel Messi a ressurgi dimanche dans le clasico de Liga (3-2) : un doublé, un 500e but avec Barcelone et un sacré grain de sable pour Zinedine Zidane. “ZZ” a, lui, raté ce grand rendez-vous pour la première fois qu'il est entraîneur du Real. Éliminé mercredi de l'épreuve-reine européenne, le Barça aurait pu tout perdre en l'espace d'une semaine, mais c'était compter sans Messi. Le quintuple Ballon d'or, resté stérile en huitièmes de C1 face au PSG (excepté un penalty) puis lors du quart perdu contre la Juve, a achevé sa traversée du désert au meilleur moment : au stade Santiago-Bernabeu, face à l'éternel rival merengue. Son doublé tout en virtuosité (33e, 90e+2) lui a permis de devenir le premier homme à atteindre la barre symbolique des 500 buts sous le maillot blaugrana. Surtout, l'Argentin a relancé un Barça moribond : le club catalan est à nouveau leader (75 pts) à la différence de buts particulière devant le Real (75 pts), avec le rêve d'un nouveau doublé Liga-Coupe du Roi, le troisième d'affilée. “Messi a tranché : la Liga reste en jeu”, a résumé le quotidien sportif Marca, le plus lu d'Espagne. “L'extase”, a titré le journal catalan Mundo Deportivo, “Saint Messi”, a osé son homologue Sport. Et tous ont salué l'immense prestation du petit lutin argentin, qui a répondu du tac au tac à Cristiano Ronaldo, devenu mardi dernier le premier joueur à dépasser les 100 buts en C1. -
Gabriel Paulista
GABRIEL PAULISTA: EQUIPOS: Vitoria, Villarreal, Arsenal, Valencia LIGA 1ª: 30 partidos (18/30 19/) COPA: 6 partidos (18) TOTAL: 36 partidos Lo primero que quizá haya que advertir es que Paulista no es un apellido, sino el adjetivo que en Brasil añaden a los que nacieron en Sao Paulo; como ocurría con Marcelinho Carioca (de Rio) o Fernando Baiano (de Bahía). El jugador se llama de verdad Gabriel Armando de Abreu (1990) y es un defensa central longilíneo que siempre parece enfadado sobre la hierba. Su posición no es la idónea para optar a Míster Simpatía –fuera del campo dicen que es un tipo encantador; y desde luego sale sonriente en todas las fotos‐ y a lo mejor sólo se trata de expresión concentrada, pero cuadra con la que parece su concepción del fútbol: un juego en el que unos se dedican a lanzar pelotas y otros, entre los que se cuenta, las interceptan. No significa que no sepa manejarla, pero da la sensación de que no le gusta. Sólo de vez en cuando se anima a dar unas zancadas al frente –los comentaristas lo llaman salir de la cueva, como si los centrales fuesen trogloditas‐ pero acaba por pasarla sin ir más allá. Por lo demás resulta un defensa de fiar, a quien sólo se le cruza un cable muy de cuando en cuando; que gustó mucho en Villarreal, algo menos en Londres hasta que una lesión lo mermó y que aquí parece sólidamente instalado sin contradicción de la grada. GAGO, Fernando: EQUIPOS: Boca Juniors, Real Madrid, Roma, Valencia, Vélez Sarsfield, Boca Juniors LIGA 1ª: 18 partidos (13/13) COPA: 1 partido (13) EUROPA: 4 partidos (13) TOTAL: 18 partidos Cuando los dorsales indicaban posiciones algunos se preguntaban porque el número 5 valía por defensa central. -

Signal Processing Using Fuzzy Fractal Dimension and Grade of Fractality –Application to Fluctuations in Seawater Temperature–
Proceedings of the 2007 IEEE Symposium on Computational Intelligence in Image and Signal Processing (CIISP 2007) Signal Processing Using Fuzzy Fractal Dimension and Grade of Fractality –Application to Fluctuations in Seawater Temperature– Kenichi Kamijo Graduate School of Life Sciences, Toyo University, 1-1-1 Izumino, Itakura, Gunma, 374-0193, Japan and Akiko Yamanouchi Izu Oceanics Research Institute 3-12-23 Nishiochiai, Shinjuku, Tokyo, 161-0031, Japan Abstract— Discrete signal processing using fuzzy fractal As an application in the present paper, we describe a new dimension and grade of fractality is proposed based on the fuzzy fractal approach for a system to monitor seawater novel concept of merging fuzzy theory and fractal theory. The temperature around Japan. Local fuzzy fractal dimension is fuzzy concept of fractality, or self-similarity, in discrete time used to measure the complexity of a time series of observed series can be reconstructed as a fuzzy-attribution, i.e., a kind of seawater temperature. fuzzy set. The objective short time series can be interpreted as an objective vector, which can be used by a newly proposed membership function. Sliding measurement using the local fuzzy fractal dimension (LFFD) and the local grade of fractality II. FUZZY FRACTAL STRUCTURE (LGF) is proposed and applied to fluctuations in seawater Generally, when the fractal dimension is calculated temperature around the Izu peninsula of Japan. Several remarkable characteristics are revealed through “fuzzy signal formally for a phenomenon that is not guaranteed to be processing” using LFFD and LGF. fractal in nature, the fractal dimension depends on the observation scale [17]. In this case, the dimension is referred to as a scale-dependent fractal dimension. -

Welcome: Robert Graves, Dean Dean Robert Graves described the difficulties that the College faced in AY 2009-2010. Even during the past five years, when the economy was in better shape than it is now, it had become increasingly clear that the College did not have funds or personnel sufficient to accomplish comfortably all the activities it currently undertakes. In view of these challenges, the College leadership began a process of re- examination in an effort to find economies of scale, explore new collaborations, and spur creative thinking and cooperation. -

Tiki-taka is useless ball circulation with no purpose and forward thinking behind it. Tearing teams apart left right and centre en route to a historic treble win under Luis Enrique in , their accumulative numbers were utterly ridiculous. The club museum still preserves and cherishes his signing bonuses, a shimmering watch and a three-piece suit. In that time, they racked up goals and assists between them - which just highlights their unbelievable understanding on the pitch. In the Champions League group stages, they struggled but got through as winners and were drawn against Manchester City in the round of Messi left behind to hold the fort Samitier was an entertainer on the pitch. This 'Je Scream' is the reaction Wenger probably gave when he realised his side were drawn against Barcelona. Tearing teams apart left right and centre en route to a historic treble win under Luis Enrique in , their accumulative numbers were utterly ridiculous. The trio proved en route to last season's European and domestic treble that they could be the beginning of a new dominant force in world football, something Messi's been part of before. His ostentatious performance attracted the Catalans into the stadium. He went onto score 47 goals in 82 matches. -

En su vuelta al trabajo, Alves mantuvo un breve encuentro con su nuevo entrenador, en el que am- bos hablaron de su futuro en clave blaugrana con toda la normalidad del mundo. Luis Enrique le aseguró que contará con él y Alves le respon- dió que, a pesar de los rumores sobre su futuro, vuelve a los entre- namientos lleno de compromiso y con ganas de volver a pelear por la titularidad. Si hace pocas semanas se da- ba por hecho que el colombiano Juan Guillermo Cuadrado sería el relevo de Alves en el lateral dere- cho, un cambio más generacional que futbolístico, ahora la situación Alves, que se entrenó ayer en doble sesión, habló con Luis Enrique y seguirá en el Barça mientras Cuadrado se acerca al Manchester United // AFP/FCBARCELONA ha cambiado completamente: Al- ves parece más cerca de cumplir su contrato y Cuadrado, de hacer las maletas para instalarse en Manchester. -
