Does Arthur and The GM Really Want Ryan?
By 3rd and short
3rd and short
He may not fit here either -- according to the Baltimore Sun.

What went wrong for Ryan in Baltimore?
First of all, he is not the corporate type owner Steve Bisciotti is looking for. Ryan is old school. He doesn't care about appearances or fancy words. He wants to draw up plays, drink beer and coach on Sundays.
Also, the Ravens weren't real happy with the way Ryan handled middle linebacker Ray Lewis and safety Ed Reed. Lewis dominated this team with his play on the field, and his personality off it. He ran the show. Reed often free-lanced and gambled. He was supposed to be more disciplined this season, but he wasn't. Like Lewis, he did basically what he wanted to do.
The Ravens spent a lot of time priming Ryan to become a head coach in the NFL, but when it opened here in Baltimore, there wasn't a lot of interest. But if he leaves to become the defensive coordinator for the Bengals, he will come back to haunt the Ravens.
Yes, Ryan is that good, and he will be on a mission.

Sorry bout that.
Shoulda started another draft thread.
I DON'T READ THE BALTIMORE SUN.!
3rd and short (1/16/2008)
THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN EVEN WORST.
We fired Mora. Does that mean that the Redskins should not interview him?
bjlbug1
This is the same question I posed about 4 days ago...if the team he has been with isnt interested...why should we be? Besides, if Blank and Co. were sold on him, he'd already have received an offer. He may end up here tho cause no one else has the balls to give us a try.
I still can't figure out why those idiot Patriots would ever hire a loser like Belichick from Clevelend when after 5 years he had only 1 winning season Cleveland wanted absolutely nothing to do with him after Belichicks pathetic perfromance.
Belichick's last year in Cleveland he lost 11 games......why would anyone hire him?
The fact is, sometimes in the NFL things just aren't a good fit for a coach. Apparently, Ryan isn't a good fit up there but that does not necessarilly mean he'll be a bad one here.

I think it is for the same reasons that we aren't keeping Zimmer or Jackson. They are looking for a fresh start and new faces. Rex is too close to the current situation and a new HC will bring in their own coordinators, so he is just becomes the odd man out.
Nighteyes
the thing is that all owners and gms have their own look into the future that means that balt might not want a defensive guy as coach and want a offense guy as coach being since that is the biggest problem with that team the d there is still good/great but aging
Rex was strongly considered in Baltimore and even still has an outside shot
there regardless of what you read.
it is a compliment to him that he was even considered.
tell me the last time a head coach has been fired for a poor record and an assistant
from that same staff was promoted. it just doesnt happen. it is guilt by association.
there's just too much negativity.
were jackson and zimmer even considered here when petrino bolted?
if the ravens had made the playoffs this year and brian billick decided to retire, rex ryan
would have been the slam dunk choice to be the coach.
pzummo
The reason Ryan isn't being considered in Baltimore is because they don't want a defensive minded head coach. Their offense has been holding them back for years, not their defense. Look at who they are trying so hard to get, the OC from Dallas. Why? Because they need somebody that can come in and fix their offense, they already have the personnel on defense. The Falcons did the the same thing last season with Petrino. We needed a HC that could come in here and fix our passing game because we were consistently last in passing offense. They need somebody that can come in and fix their offense with a DC that can maintain their defense. That's why Ryan is not being considered. Defense has not been their problem, so they are not looking for a defensive HC.

India, Russia discuss Afghanistan, condemn cross-border terrorism; ink deal on AK-203 rifles, 28 pacts
New Delhi [India], December 7 (ANI): India and Russia on Monday discussed the evolving situation in Afghanistan, especially the security situation and its implications in the region, as they condemned the cross-border movement of terrorists and inked a deal for joint production of over six lakh AK-203 rifles in Uttar Pradesh.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Russian Vladimir President Putin held the 21st annual summit on Monday, hours after the two nations held their maiden 22 dialogue.
During Russian President Vladimir Putin's "short but highly productive and substantive" visit for the annual summit, India and Russia signed 28 MoUs and agreements including that on a programme of the Military-Technical Cooperation from 2021-2031.
In his opening remarks, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said India and Russia have not only cooperated with each other without any hesitation but have also taken special care of each other's sensitivities.
"There have been many fundamental changes at the global level in the last several decades. A lot of geopolitical equations have emerged. But India-Russia friendship has been a constant among all these variables. Both the countries have not only cooperated with each other without any hesitation but have also taken special care of each other's sensitivities. It is truly a unique and reliable model of inter-state friendship," the Prime Minister said.
He said the two countries are adopting a long-term vision to deepen the relationship in the economic sector and have set a target of $30 billion in trade and $50 billion in investment by 2025.
Putin, whose visit to India was only his second foreign visit since the outbreak of COVID-19, said Russia views India "as a major power, whose people have been very friendly to us".
"Our relations proceed from a very positive foundation. They are developing and forward-looking," he said.
A 99-point comprehensive joint statement covering various aspects of the ties including cooperation in the space sector was issued after the talks that were held "in a warm and friendly atmosphere".
"There were excellent discussions between the two leaders. This is President Putin second visit out of Russia since the COVID-19 pandemic began. The only visit he has undertaken was the brief visit to Geneva for the Russia-US summit," Foreign Secretary Harsh Vardhan Shringla said at a media briefing after the summit.
"The fact that the Russian president has decided to visit India for the annual summit exceptionally is an indication of the importance he attaches to the bilateral relationship and also his personal rapport," he added.
PM Modi and President Putin expressed satisfaction at the sustained progress in the 'Special and Privileged Strategic Partnership' between both countries despite the challenges posed by the Covid pandemic.
They welcomed the holding of the first meeting of the 22 Dialogue of Foreign and Defence Ministers and the meeting of the Inter-Governmental Commission on Military and Military-Technical Cooperation.
The statement said the two sides positively assessed the multi-faceted India-Russia relations that span various areas of cooperation including political and strategic, economy, energy, military and security, science and technology, culture and humanitarian cooperation. They noted that while the traditional areas of cooperation are being further strengthened, new drivers of growth have led to diversification and expansion of bilateral cooperation.
The leaders underscored the need for greater economic cooperation and in this context, emphasized new drivers of growth for long term predictable and sustained economic cooperation.
They appreciated the success story of mutual investments and looked forward to greater investments in each others' countries.
The role of connectivity through the International North-South Transport Corridor (INSTC) and the proposed Chennai - Vladivostok Eastern Maritime Corridor figured in the discussions.
The leaders discussed regional and global developments, including the post-pandemic global economic recovery, and the situation in Afghanistan.
They agreed that both countries share common perspectives and concerns on Afghanistan and appreciated the bilateral roadmap charted out at the NSA level for consultation and cooperation on Afghanistan.
"The leaders reiterated strong support for a peaceful, secure and stable Afghanistan while emphasizing the respect for sovereignty, unity and territorial integrity and non-interference in its internal affairs. They also discussed the current humanitarian situation and decided to provide immediate humanitarian assistance to the Afghan people," the statement said.
The leaders emphasised that Afghanistan's territory should not be used for sheltering, training, planning or financing any terrorist groups including ISIS, Al Qaeda and Lashkar-e-Taiba."They reaffirmed their firm commitment to combat terrorism in all its forms and manifestations, including its financing, the dismantling of terrorist infrastructure and countering radicalization, to ensure that Afghanistan would never become a safe haven for global terrorism," the statement said.
The agreements and MoUs spanned vast areas including trade, energy, science and technology, intellectual property, outer space, geological exploration, cultural exchange and education.
The statement said India and Russia strongly condemned terrorism in all its forms and manifestations and urged the international community to intensify cooperation against terrorism including safe havens, terror financing, arms, drugs trafficking and radicalisationThe Central Bank of Russia and the Reserve Bank of India signed a cooperation agreement to fight cyber-attacks.
President Putin extended an invitation to Prime Minister Modi to visit Russia for the 22nd India-Russia Annual Summit in 2022.
Earlier in the day Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and his Russian counterpart Sergey Shoigu co-chaired a meeting of the India-Russia Inter-Governmental Commission during which the two sides inked the agreement for joint production of over six lakh AK-203 assault rifles at a manufacturing facility in Uttar Pradesh's Amethi.
Rajnath Singh, Sergey Shoigu, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov took part in the 22 meeting. India has this arrangement only with members of Quad - the US, Japan and Australia.
In his remarks, Rajnath Singh made a veiled reference to China's actions in eastern Ladakh.
"The COVID-19 pandemic, the extra-ordinary militarization and expansion of armament in our neighbourhood and the completely unprovoked aggression on our northern border since early summer of 2020 have thrown in several challenges," he said.
"India is confident of overcoming these challenges with the strong political will and inherent capability of its people. Recognizing that its development needs are colossal and that its defence challenges are legitimate, real and immediate, India seeks partners who are sensitive and responsive to India's expectations and requirements," he added.
Jaishankar said at the situation in Afghanistan has wider repercussions for the Central Asian region and added that both India and Russia have a common interest in ASEAN centrality.
"India-Russia meeting today will address the emergence of multipolarity and rebalancing. We look at the consequence of over-centralized globalisation. Long-standing challenges of terrorism, violent extremism remain among newer challenges," Jaishankar said. The situation in Afghanistan has wider repercussions including for Central Asia," Jaishankar said.
He also stressed the strong and steady ties between India and Russia. "Our ties have been close and time-tested, in a world that has changed so much, they have been exceptionally steady," he said.
He said the two countries have an active, dialogue at political levels and also a strong defence partnership over many years.
"Our meeting gives us a suitable platform to discuss political-military issues of mutual interest that are interrelated and cross-cutting," he added.
Lavrov said that the newly established 22 ministerial dialogue will turn into an efficient platform to talk about both regional and international issues.
"Both Russia and India have a similar worldview of a more polycentric, more multipolar, more equitable world order. We advocate similar or identical positions on the most important political and military issues," he said. (ANI)

The Legal Aid for Crown Court Proceedings Rules 2015
On the 5th of May 2015 The Legal Aid for Crown Court Proceedings (Costs) (Amendment) Rules (Northern Ireland) 2015 came into operation.
These rules are a direct attack on the capacity of legal defence practitioners to exercise their proper function both to their clients and to wider society.
When these rules were first introduced in 2005, rules which have been amended yet again, without the real impact of previous cuts being allowed to work through the system, the profession agreed to a system of "swings and roundabouts". Simply put, the standard fee available in complex and difficult cases could be acceptable in the context of the same fee being available in less complex and involved cases. Accordingly, the less complex cases would compensate within that scheme for working on the more complex cases.
Repeated cuts since 2005 have confirmed the suspicions of some practitioners in 2005 that this scheme would result in the death of criminal defence services by a thousand paper cuts. The DoJ have taken considerably less time to effect those feared cuts than anyone could have anticipated.
It is not for defence lawyers to offer a minimum acceptable standard of defence representation, as suggested by some of our local representatives. That is not the professional standard expected of us by either the Law Society or our clients. To work to that standard is a breach of our rules of professional conduct. Defence solicitors should never countenance being placed in such a position.
Wider society demands that the innocent are acquitted and that convictions are safe. What the DOJ propose in terms of resources can deliver neither.
In the same way as we expect education and health provision to aspire to more than just the provision of a minimum acceptable standard, we should have the same expectations of the criminal justice system, asking it to aspire to more than a minimum standard of service provision.
This boils down to resources. These cuts, which are without a doubt an undisguised attack on defence lawyers, will lead to the inevitable result of defence lawyers not being able to properly resource the defence of those accused of the most serious crimes in the criminal calendar. The seriousness of these crimes is reflected in the decision to prosecute these cases in the Crown Court in the first place.
Those of us within the legal profession who work in the field of publicly funded criminal defence services do not work for the fees available to lawyers in civil litigation, commercial law or banking law.
But we deal with a more precious commodity.
We deal with the lives and liberty of individuals who could be our family, friends and neighbours, with the hopes and aspirations of families, with the poor and the vulnerable, with the disabled and those with profound emotional problems, with the troubled children of our society who are so sensitive to the wider failure of our politicians to deal with poverty and deprivation of opportunity, all who need strong and fearless protection.
We bring our expertise to bear on the lives of those accused of serious assault and murder, sexual crimes, offending that impacts on individuals and society like car crime, highly visible crime that makes the public feel unsafe.
Criminal defence lawyers, bringing their expertise to bear, work to avoid unnecessary trials by doing their very best to assist the guilty to come to the most important and difficult decision they will ever make, accepting when they have committed a serious wrong which will result in a sentence of imprisonment. That service to our clients and wider society is never drawn to the attention of the public but if not exercised with discretion and expertise would result in our courts crawling to a halt and victims being brought to court to provide evidence, with all that that entails.
Criminal defence lawyers simply ask for the proper resources so that we can provide the service we know we must. We know what defending our clients entails. We know how difficult this work is and how involved it has become. We have wages to pay, offices to run and an overwhelming imperative to exercise our professional obligations and provide our service to our client. If the resources are not available then the work cannot be done or in doing so law firms will be bankrupted.
Further, lawyers have a fundamentally important role to play in a properly functioning democracy. They hold public authorities, civil servants, individual government ministers and on occasion the Government to account. They are, on behalf of the public, a necessary inconvenience against the excesses of those in power.
There has never been a formal acknowledgement by the DoJ and its predecessor of the expertise and value brought to the justice system by criminal defence lawyers, not only in the recent past but extending back to the darkest days of the conflict.
Instead, since devolution there has been a process of demonisation of lawyers masking the reality that a top class service has been provided over many difficult years.
The thanks the profession has received is to suffer the cynical and vicious onslaught from the DoJ intended to out criminal defence lawyers out of business which only serves to prejudice wider society.
It is frightening to realise that certain players in government would prefer to see an end of to a confident and robust independent legal profession.
For all the reasons set out KRW Law Advocates shall be withdrawing from the provision of crown court criminal defence services until the High Court has ruled on the Judicial Review which is to be lodged by the Law Society. It is done with a heavy heart and a real sense of despair for the future of criminal defence representation.
We suspect the Court of Appeal will become increasingly choked up as a result of these new Rules.

Heroes Work Here: Profile of SSgt Travis Mills
Retired United States Army Staff Sergeant Travis Mills is a recalibrated warrior, motivational speaker, actor, author and advocate for veterans and amputees. He is one of only five quadruple amputees from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to survive his injuries. His new book about his challenges and triumphs, As Tough as They Come, is available in bookstores everywhere on Oct. 27.
Travis will be a featured speaker at the Heroes Work Here conference in Chicago on Nov. 3, geared towards helping employers build and implement an effective veteran and military-spouse hiring program. The free one-day workshop is an opportunity for human resources professionals, recruiters and senior-level representatives to listen, learn and network with national thought leaders from various employers, government agencies and veteran support organizations. For more details on the conference and to attend, see this site. We had an opportunity to talk to SSgt Mills about the event.
Military.com: It's been over three years since you sustained your injuries – how have things been progressing for you physically, mentally and emotionally?
Things have been progressing very well. While I definitely had to overcome some serious physical, mental and emotional challenges during the initial stages of my recovery, I have done my best to overcome these challenges. Thanks to my wife, daughter, family, friends, the incredible team of healthcare providers at Walter Reed, and the prayers of so many across the nation, I was encouraged to "Never give up. Never quit," even in the darkest days of my recovery. Today, for the most part, I have adapted to my new normal. I mean I still have brief moments when I get frustrated like when I drop something such as my credit card and my prosthetic hand just can't seem to get clasp it. But overall, I focus on keeping my attitude positive. I have so much to be thankful for because so many of my brothers and sisters in arms have paid the ultimate sacrifice.
Can you summarize your foundation's aims and your current programs?
During my recovery at the U.S. Army's flagship hospital, Walter Reed, I found a passion for inspiring fellow wounded servicemen and women. While at Walter Reed, I consistently toured the facility seeking opportunities to encourage and spend time with fellow wounded soldiers and their families. To carry on my passion, I founded the Travis Mills Foundation, a nonprofit organization, to benefit and assist wounded and injured veterans and their families.
The Travis Mills Foundation is currently in the process of transforming the historic Maine Chance Lodge, originally built and owned by cosmetics pioneer Elizabeth Arden, into a retreat for combat wounded veterans and their families. When it's completed, it will be the nation's first fully-accessible "smart home" facility dedicated to serving the recreational and reintegration needs of combat-wounded veteran families. Scheduled to open Summer 2017, the retreat will fill a vital role in the recovery, camaraderie, spousal support, reconnection, relaxation and reintegration for our military heroes – a true and lasting symbol of a grateful nation.
How did you come to be involved with the upcoming Heroes Work Here Conference?
My friends at CK&D Cause Marketing and Media Group, who have been helping me with my book, Tough As They Come, were working with their clients, Easter Seals, on producing The Walt Disney Company's Heroes Work Here Conference in Chicago. Recognizing that Easter Seals, Disney and I share the same mission of helping veterans reintegrate into civilian life, and that employment is a key component of reintegration, CK&D introduced me to Easter Seals and Disney. I hope that my presence at the event shows that all veterans, including those with disabilities, are capable and eager to contribute to our communities.
What do you hope to communicate to participants and employers at the conference?
Veterans are a tough group of people who have thrived in stressful environments and have worked together as a team. Most jobs require collaborating with a diverse group of co-workers and veterans are well experienced in that area; they're used to forming tight bonds with people from different racial, religious and socioeconomic groups. People in the armed services go through months of extensive training and learn how to do something the right way. As a leader, I knew I had to be there for those on my team, and I know that everyone I was deployed with would do almost anything for me. That loyalty is something that's instilled in every veteran and something that will benefit an employer.
Do you have a message or piece of advice for veterans out there who are struggling to find a job?
My advice is, as always, to "Never give up. Never quit." As I know firsthand, life can throw some unexpected things at you, but as veterans, we've been trained to adapt to any situation. While we're working to help employers learn about the unique value veterans bring to the workplace, you can also work to help civilians understand the skills you developed during your career in the armed services. Rewrite your resume to replace military jargon and acronyms with simple explanations of the tasks you performed in the military that someone without your experience could understand and highlight how those skills are transferrable to a civilian workplace. While it might seem obvious to you, potential employers might need some help understanding how your military experience has prepared you for a stateside job.
