Police say their entire crime scene from Tuesday's officer involved shooting is right on, or right next to the light rail tracks in downtown Phoenix. Investigators will likely have the tracks closed for 4 to 5 hours while they investigate. Light rail trains are running but they're delayed at least 30 to 40 minutes while they try and bypass that investigation scene During a police pursuit, an unmarked police truck ended up blocking the light rail tracks at 1st Ave. & Jefferson, prompting authorities to shut down the tracks. From the other side of Jefferson looking east a better of view the intersection and light rail tracks shut down. Those parked in front of superior courthouse stuck "The cops are actually trying to figure out since were on a one way street were parked this way how they're going to get my car from over there, and I thought front row parking was a good thing out backwards we'll see," said misty muse. Light rail riders going east had to wait the longest delays for anyone headed towards mesa and ASU."I work at the downtown campus for ASU so ordinarily we would go other there, and they're telling us we cant," said Greg Zachary.ASU students and professors ran to catch shuttles."I have to take the ASU shuttle, but it's way farther, it's like a 15 minute walk to my class but if I take the light rail its right there it's just inconvenient that way," said Sam Carrillo."Next thing you know they're telling us we have to walk to a shuttle, and then they change that to over here so now were going east on the westside," said Lois Leisen.
Transit Delay Information Below:Light rail passengers in downtown Phoenix: Board the bi-directional shuttle train at Central/Van Buren, Central/Washington or Washington/3rd St. stations. Another option is the bus shuttles.
Light rail passengers coming from West/Central Phoenix towards East Valley (headed eastbound): Exit at Roosevelt, walk to opposite side of platform to board the bi-directional shuttle train to reach 12th St. Walk to 12th St./Jefferson to re-board regular train to continue eastbound trip.
Light rail passengers coming from the East Valley towards downtown/Central Phoenix (headed westbound): Exit at 12th St./Washington and board the bi-directional shuttle to reach Roosevelt. Re-board regular train to continue westbound trip.
Express/RAPID bus passengers: Service will continue, however, there is a detour to avoid the closure on Jefferson St. Expect 15 – 20 minute delays.

Labour candidate eliminated in Police and Crime Commissioner vote
3:02pm Friday 16th November 2012 in News By Tarik Al Rasheed
LABOUR candidate Simon Murphy has been eliminated after the first round of counting in the election of West Mercia's first police and crime commissioner (PCC).
Dr Murphy, who earlier emerged as the most popular choice with voters in Worcester, polled 25.7 per cent of the initial vote.
Independent Bill Longmore , with 37.8 per cent of the vote and Conservative candidate Adrian Blackshaw, with 36.5 per cent, go through to the second round.
Under the supplementary voting system Dr Murphy's voters' second choices are now being taken into account.
Turnout across the West Mercia force area was 14.54 per cent, marginally higher than Worcester's 14.38 per cent.
The new commissioner will be responsible for setting West Mercia Police's budget, policing priorities and hiring or firing the chief constable, although the force will retain operational independence so decisions about investigations cannot be influenced by politics.

In attempt to catch up to the Texas Rangers, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim signed the best hitter in baseball. Then they signed away the Rangers' best pitcher. From the Rangers' perspective, that's like reaching for a can of Raid and seeing that the cockroach is holding it.
If I owned the Rangers, I would have walked away from Game 6 of the 2011 World Series thinking malicious thoughts. And after Game 7, I would have retreated to my luxurious suite, cracked open a bottle of 40-year-old Scotch, and started plotting how I was going to sign Albert Pujols away. At first, I would have done it just to put him on the bench just to piss off Cardinals fans, but at some point I would have figured out that playing him was a better idea.
The Rangers' ownership is not as petty as I am, apparently. They're fiscally prudent and pragmatic. And if they didn't think that Pujols was worth $254 million -- which is something that 28 other teams thought -- well, they might be right. But they were always the best fit for one of the two premium first basemen on the market, considering that they have a modest payroll, and that they shouldn't be especially attached to Mitch Moreland.
It's possible that the Rangers were going to be coy with Prince Fielder and hope that the market got a little soft for him, allowing them to swoop in. And if they didn't get him, well, they were still set up for 2012 with one fewer long-term contract to worry about. But the Angels just signed one of the best hitters of all-time, and they took the Rangers' #1 starter on the same day. They might as well have put on a powdered wig, walked up to the Rangers, and slapped them with a little white glove. It had to stun the Texas front office just a little bit.
It would be wrong to say that the Rangers should sign Fielder because it's an arms race now. A couple of moves from a rival shouldn't put the Rangers into reactionary mode, especially if the long-term consequences are so significant. But even when you strip the emotions away, the Rangers and Fielder are just about a perfect fit. Consider:
- They have that huge TV deal coming, and it sure would be swell if they had something fancy to put on TV
- The one current player in line for a superstar contract soon, Josh Hamilton, is a fragile, risky long-term investment that the Rangers might not even want to sign.
- Michael Young comes off the books after 2013, and a front-loaded deal to Fielder might make sense while the starting pitching is so cheap (Holland, Harrison, Feliz, Lewis, and Ogando will combine to make less than C.J. Wilson next year. Heck, they'll come close to making what Aaron Harang makes.)
That's without the emotional part. Now put those emotions in a paper bag, and breathe deep. Let the anger swirl in your lungs, Rangers. The Angels -- the Angels -- just fired that double salvo at you. The team that's annoyed you for decades, who used a magical Game 6 comeback to win their first championship, and who laughed at the magical Game 6 comeback that cost you yours. The Angels.
The Angels signed away the top pitcher on the Rangers' staff on the same day they added one of the best hitters in history. Second prize is a set of steak knives. Third prize is you're the A's. Hop to it, Texas.
It might feel like a knee-jerk reaction, but it makes so, so, so much sense for the Rangers. Like, an amazing amount of sense. It did before the Pujols/Wilson moves, and it certainly does now. The lineup next year would be amazing. Even John Lackey and a couple of blown saves against the Orioles couldn't screw it up.
And as a side benefit, Jon Daniels gets to call up John Mozeliak, ask him "Say, what would you give me for Mitch Moreland?", and hang up before there's a response. That's not as sweet as a World Series win, but that doesn't mean that it wouldn't be really, really satisfying.

Community protests OPD murder of Alan Blueford, 18
Davey D begins his Morning Mix show, broadcast 8-9 a.m. on May 15, with powerful testimony on the police murder of Alan Blueford by his cousin Tanisha, his mother and Jack Bryson of the Oscar Grant Committee. (Show begins after the news digest, at about five minutes in.)
Video by TomVeeTV
On Saturday, May 12, 3 p.m., protesters marched from 9200 Birch St., where OPD left Alan to bleed to death for four hours, to the Eastmont Mall Police Sub-Station, 2652 73rd Ave., Oakland, chanting "Jail killer cops!" and "No justice, no peace, no racist police!" See the videos by Earl Black below of the march and rally.
All who demand justice for Alan Blueford will Occupy the Oakland City Council in City Hall, Oscar Grant Plaza, 14th & Broadway, at 6 p.m. Tuesday, May 15.
Statement by the Blueford family
Alan DeWayne Blueford was an 18-year-old senior at Skyline High School, preparing to graduate in June. He was the youngest son of Adam Blueford Sr. and Jeralynn Brown Blueford.
During the early morning hours of May 6, 2012, Alan was murdered by an officer – whose name has yet to be released – with the Oakland Police Department. His family is now seeking justice for his death.
Here is what we know:
• At or about midnight, May 6, Alan and two friends were standing on the corner of 90th and Birch Street waiting for "some girls in a white Chevy," Alan told his father during a phone call.
• After the phone call, police officers approached Alan and his friends, with guns drawn. The police officers were called to respond to another incident, but decided to stop Alan and his friends when they saw them because they "believed the young men had a concealed weapon."
• Alan ran down Birch Street from the police officers.
• Approximately two blocks down Birch Street on the 9200 block the officer chasing Alan murdered him by shooting him three times. The officer also shot himself.
• Although Alan had his brown wallet with his ID, Oakland Police Department never called to tell his parents he was shot and killed.
• Alan's two friends were detained for over six hours. After their release, one of the young men had the traumatic task of calling Alan's parents and telling them Alan was shot and killed by an Oakland police officer.
• Initial reports put out by OPD, stated that "a suspect" (Alan) and a police officer exchanged gun fire and the officer was shot in the stomach by the suspect and the suspect was shot by the officer. Both were said to have been rushed to Highland Hospital where Alan died and the police officer was expected to recover. OPD also included in their reports witness statements who said they saw Alan shooting. OPD reported that they retrieved Alan's firearm at the scene.
• Later OPD changed their story to state that the officer was shot in the leg and an investigation was in process to determine whether the officer was wounded by "friendly fire." Only one of the officers chased Alan.
• What we now know is that Alan Blueford never shot the police officer, at the police officer, or anyone else. OPD changed their story yet again, admitting and confirming that THE OFFICER SHOT HIMSELF.
• We also know that Alan was never rushed to Highland Hospital. Only the police officer. Alan's body lay in the streets for approximately 4 hours.
• Alan was shot multiple times by the police officer.
• The family has reason to believe that Alan never had a firearm.
• The family has reason to believe that Alan never caused the officer to be threatened. Alan's body can be described as a shorter stature – approximately 5 feet 6 ½ inches – and thin build, 140 pounds.
When Alan's family learned of the claimed circumstances surrounding Alan's death, we all knew that the facts were not true! Additionally, because they never called to confirm his death, we were sadly left with hope that the unnamed "suspect" was not Alan. He was a joy to many people. We are suffering a great loss.
Now OPD claims that the "victim" – no longer suspect – was a convicted felon on probation. His family will simply respond by saying felony probation does not describe Alan's character. To describe Alan, you have to share that he 1) was a Christian; 2) worked with the disabled children at Skyline, one of whom described "Al" as his "best friend"; 3) began his mornings at Skyline High School by praying with his godmother and supervisor; 4) passed out candy at his grandmother's every Halloween; and 5) was well known by his family and friends as a respectful young man.
But even more important is the fact that when the police officers decided not to respond to the call, but rather to bother Alan and his friends, all they knew is that they were three African-American young men. That's why Alan was murdered.
Alan's family is seeking justice for his death. We are determined to have this "incident" thoroughly investigated and all wrongful parties prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. We ask that all of you support us by calling District 7 City Councilman Larry Reid, at (510) 238-7007.
As we embark upon this long journey, we rely on the grace and mercy of our Father God, through faith in the blood of Jesus Christ. We find peace in scripture, specifically Genesis 50:20 (NIV): "As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant if for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today."
Hammer demands justice for his friend, Alan Blueford
Video by missmollie33
Hammer was one of the people who spoke yesterday in front of the Oakland Police Department headquarters on Seventh Street. Hammer knew Alan Blueford, who was a close friend of his children. Hammer's words are beautiful, strong, loving and true.
There is still an ongoing investigation, but one thing is clear: OPD is up to their old corrupt tricks. They claimed Alan Blueford shot at them, yet Alan's family has now been told that there were four shots fired – three were fired into Alan's back, and the fourth was the cop shooting himself/herself in the foot.
Alan Blueford was unarmed when he was running away from the cops. The identity of the cop has not been released and the cop is on paid administrative leave at this point pending an Internal Affairs investigation.
Protest march for Alan Blueford, killed by Oakland Police during a pedestrian stop
Protesters marched from 9200 Birch St., where OPD left Alan to bleed to death for four hours, to the Eastmont Mall Police Sub-Station, chanting "Jail killer cops!" and "No justice, no peace, no racist police!"
Videos by Earl Black
Alan Blueford's cousin speaks on the facts in the Oakland police murder of Alan and the police cover-up. The rally was held Saturday afternoon, May 12, in front of the Eastmont Mall Police Sub-Station. She addresses the lies the police presented to the family and, along with other family members, expresses their anger and outrage, not only over the death of their beloved, but also because of the way the police continued to excuse their own criminal behavior in obvious and blatant disregard for the family's feelings and rights.

The guy was on probation for felony burglary and had a gun. If Mr. Blueford had shot a young black man that night, how would this article be different then? It would still be a young black man dead, just not Mr. Blueford, and you wouldn't care? I'm trying to understand your logic.↓
difference is that this BOY was unarmed..they're trying to dehumanize victims(as you are doing now) that killer cops murder as to cover it up. I wouldn't be surprised if you were indeed a narc or some other form of law enforcement..you give real police officers a bad rep for defending the murderers..↓
Malaika H Kambon
Sorry John, but you aren't really trying to understand anything. Your useless argument tries in vain to deny the fact that the OPD murders young AFRIKAN Men with impunity.
If you were really attempting to discern logic in an illogical situation, you would be questioning the recurring illogic of state sanctioned, extra judicial vigilantism under the cover of – or more accurately – as a substitution for what is alleged to be 'law.'
You would be questioning the continual erosion of the 1st Amendment rights of AFRIKAN people – youth in particular – by summary execution.
And you would be questioning the veracity of a 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution that alleges to outlaw the enslavement of anyone – but yet legalizes the enslavement of all (and predominantly AFRIKAN people) once they are incarcerated in institutions which purport to 'rehabilitate' those under their care, custody, and control; institutions and corporately owned penal colonies and plantations which provide coerced and enslaved labor to the tune of huge profits in environments which are anything but 'rehabilitative' – and are in fact, more of a microcosm of the outside society they are secretly working to change to be more in their image – instead of the reverse.
AmeriKKKa hasn't ever ended the enslavement of AFRIKANS… we are its profit margin. Our bodies are not turning enough of a profit in Amerikkka's illegal foreign wars, so it's military and prison industrial complexes are stepping up the kill factor… Perish the thought that this country would allow us to be able to empower ourselves, especially when we organize in recognition that imperialism is killing us and profiting less than 1% of the population…
So use your head for something other than a hat rack or a balloon, John Mulligan – or shut up when grown folks are talking.
John Mulligan
In 2008 and 2009, homicide was the leading cause of death among black teens. http://www.blackyouthproject.com/2012/03/report-g…. Get your statistics and I'll get mine, c'mon, let's see what the answer is.
Everything you have to say, Mr. Kambon, is nothing more than empty rhetoric. But blast away all you like, you are, after all, your own worst enemy.
Oh, and prisons? You're right, they are no longer for rehabilitation. Prisons are for (1) punishment and (2) incapacitation of criminals. When the crime rate spiked, particularly among black males in the 1980's and 1990's, it became pretty obvious that rehabilitation was impossible. This is because culture supported crime and denigrated personal achievement. You're dreaming if you think prisons generate any profit, they are in fact, quite expensive. http://nicic.gov/Library/025650
Bottom line, stop protecting criminals. They kill young black men.↓
oh trite arguments
Mr. Mulligan,
First and foremost: since when is murder form of crime prevention?
Second: homicide is the leading cause of death among black teens—that, Mr. Mulligan, includes murder by the hands of the state.
Third: poverty is also a leading cause of death–perhaps you could include in your crusade to save Black youth statistics on the institutional causes of poverty?↓
Be Wun
the violent crime rate has DECLINED since the 1980's. Check your facts.
and look into the history of "The Farm", Angola State Penitentiary, Louisiana. A slave plantation until slavery was no longer legal- then it immediately became a work farm. Apply this metaphor system wide.↓
Omega Payton
Mulligan, I won't bother to argue with the likes of you, but I will note this: What goes around will certainly come around again. I can assure you that when that time arrives, I will personally take the heads of your kind in retaliation for this rash of murders by whites on young Black males, and be assured that I'll have no mercy. Hopefully, we meet tee-o-tee and I can watch your coward butt die!!!↓
L Rene Evans
This is tragic. It is tragic when we kill each other and equally tragic when someone kills us. When we committ crimes against us it's sends a message that we, as a people, don't respect us. Unfortunately, the only reason this is garnering this much attention is that an OPD officer killed him. If this was one of us killing us, OPD couldn't even get a witness to come forward and identify the murderer for fear of retaliation from the murder's family. I am sadden by this tragedy. I know this young man's family. They have lost as son, a grandson, a nephew, a cousin. We have lost another young black man whose future was a wide open field of opportunity.↓
L Rene Evans
It doesn't matter that he had made a mistake, how many of us have made a mistake. That is not an excuse to execute. It also should not be a reason to turn this anger and frustration inward against our own community. Let's use this as an opportunity to rally against injustice of any kind, including crimes against us by us. Let's stop giving others permission to disrespect us by disrespecting ourselves. If we are going to stand then stand tall and stop tolerating any crimes against us by anyone!↓
L Rene Evans
@John: you paint a poignant picture. Unfortunately you believe the rhetoric of the media. This is your interpretation of events where you do not have all the facts. It is because of you that I will forever show up for jury duty so you and your kind do not falsely incarcerate anyone just because the look like me. I will forever hang a jury, based on fact. I pledged to do my civic duty to ensure that the jury that hears our cases has our face on it and will forever thwart your attempts to subjugate us to the position of being criminal because of the color of my skin.↓

Killing Black youth has turned into a national pass time! The vigilantes have formed a pack to murder young Black men, this is a national disgrace and we shouldbe outraged and marching daily against genocide. The youth are the target marker they are perdeived by the police as lesser than human and are killed then handcuffed. We need a moratorium on this type of activity too many youth killed by the death squads in this country ,we need to march on the white house and bring this to a natioanal forum.
We need to wake up to genocide , this is their national policy . There is no doubt in my mind they want to kill us,it happens daily. White youth are not being blown away on a daily bases we're the target market . i WILL NOT BE SHOCKED IF they handed out prizes for killing a Black youth.

Here's a website with a slideshow of Oakland homicide victims from 2011 and a list of victims from 2010. http://www.insidebayarea.com/oakland-homicides
Take a look at the pictures, mostly black faces right? True, maybe one or two were shot by a cop, but the remainder were shot by people just like Mr. Alan Blueford. How is this possible? According to the 2010 census, Oakland is only 27% black. How then can 90% of the murder victims be black?
Unfortunately it's people like Mr. Blueford doing the shooting. People with violent priors who are armed and run from police because they know they're going back to prison. Here's that slideshow again: http://www.insidebayarea.com/oakland-homicides/ci…
I dare you to look through those 107 pictures of dead young black people and tell me that someone just like Mr. Blueford wasn't likely responsible for each death. So who is to blame, Mr. Blueford's mother? His friends? Probably a combination of both.↓
So, Mr. Mulligan, you think this makes it open season? You are one sick mofu.↓
John Mulligan
No, I'm saying that Mr. Blueford did have a gun and was involved in violent crime. That is the kind of conduct that justifiably gets you shot by the police. I'm also saying that Mr. Blueford was exactly the type of person who would have killed other young black men, and thus, his death likely saved lives. I'll tell you what is sick though, trying to turn someone like Mr. Blueford into a martyr. His family should be ashamed of themselves, and that people are now trying to equate this shooting to a civil rights litigation is utterly twisted. It is precisely this type of attitude that is causing so much crime and destruction in the black community.
Make no mistake Ms. Garrison, it is open season in the Bay Area, but it's men like Mr. Blueford doing the hunting. You can call it genocide if you like, I don't think there is a word for suicidal genocide, but that's what it is. Black on black crime.
By the way Ms. Garrison, I was curious to read your thoughts on this article: http://sfbayview.com/2012/swedes-revive-ridicule-…↓
So, this was a preventive murder, by the OPD?↓
John Mulligan
I wrote that it was a justified shooting, so no, it was not murder. This article is similar in many ways to the articles written following the shootings of Lovelle Mixon. Mr. Mixon was proven by DNA to be responsible for the rape, at gunpoint, of a 12 year old girl. He had been to CYA and prison since the age of 13, including for assault with a deadly weapon and robbery. Mr. Mixon was also linked to two additional rapes.
Despite that people hold up signs of Lovelle Mixon as if he were some kind of hero: http://sfbayview.com/2012/the-army-sergeant-and-l…. Worse, he was defended by this very website, "Mixon, unsurprisingly, was quickly attacked in the press, false rape accusations were levied at him posthumously and he was immediately demonized – a monster. "
Mr. Blueford, again, is a similar case. He had a gun, multiple civilian witnesses saw Mr. Blueford point a gun at an officer and still people here defend Mr. Blueford. It's just insane.
You're saying that he had a gun, and he pointed the gun at the officer on the night the officer shot him? And that's why the officer shot him?
John Mulligan
What are you saying Ms. Garrison? I'm curious to know. Do have a particular point of view?
Crazy idea…don't run from the Police in the middle of the night (especially if you are a felon).↓
Crazier idea… If you want to live and have a gun shoot first. (You'll get one after death if you do otherwise)↓
John Mulligan
That's what I've read in the papers. Do you have some other kind of information?↓
The 56%
The police should just stop solving black murders, then 2 problems would be solved. The blacks wouldnt be able to blame the police for killing their people and the black population would fall due to them killing each other. Everyone is happy.↓
Diversity is a strength↓

Acerca del autor
Art has always been a part of my life. I was fortunate enough to have been born in San Francisco, which has always been a cultural beacon for art in general but for African American Artists in particular. The social conditions of my neighborhood (Haight Ashbury) as well as the rest of the country at that time, allowed for voices to be heard that had heretofore been muted.
I was born into a Family that contained two formally trained working artists (my uncles). From an early age I made enough of a pest of my self that it became impossible for either of them to ignore my desire to learn from them. I began to imitate their works and eventually refine technique by critique and impromptu lessons. At that time there were few venues that would exhibit the work of African American Artists on par with their white counterparts. To counter this fact many of the African American Artists formed a collective to create their own venue, (The Black Man's Art Gallery). Through my mentors I was able t

Former chief executive of Cotswold Water Park Society, Dennis Grant, sentenced to 1,237 days in prison
Updated 12:49pm Saturday 8th February 2014 in News
The former Chief Executive of the Cotswold Water Park Society has today, Friday February 7, been sentenced to 1,237 days in prison for failing to pay money back to the Cotswold Water Park.
In July 2011 Dennis Grant, 66, of Banbury in Oxfordshire, was sentenced to four years imprisonment having entered a guilty plea to six charges of fraud by false representation.
The 66-year-old was accused of having money paid into his own bank accounts rather than those of the Water Park.
He was found to have benefited from the fraud to the sum of £707,291.25p.
At Gloucester Crown Court on November 30, 2012 he was issued with a confiscation order ordering him to pay £318,949.71p to the Cotswold Water Park over the following 12 months.
He appeared at North Somerset Magistrates Court in Weston-Super-Mare today (Friday February 7) after failing to pay £305,000 of the money owed and was sentenced to an additional 1237 days in prison.

Downtown Hoedown Artist Jana Kramer's Debut Album Hits Number One On iTunes
Singer and actress Jana Kramer released her self-titled debut album this week, and within two days it reached Number One on the iTunes country album chart.
And considering she bumped Alan Jackson–who also released a new album this week–to the number two spot, that's a pretty substantial achievement.
Kramer was, as you'd imagine, thrilled.
I still cant believe this!!!! NUMBER ONE! Love you all so much for your support! smarturl.it/JanaKramer http://t.co/4gMuZ0Kj—
Jana Kramer (@kramergirl) June 07, 2012
Detroit native Kramer was initially best known for her acting TV shows such as Friday Night Lights, 90210, and One Tree Hill. She's been gaining ground as a country singer as well, through a series of singles including "Whiskey" and "Why You Wanna." Both songs appear on her debut album, which was produced by noted Nashville vet Scott Hendricks (Alan Jackson, Faith Hill, Trace Adkins, John Michael Montgomery).
Kramer performed "Why You Wanna" live during Wednesday's broadcast of the CMT Music Awards.
See Jana Kramer at the Downtown Hoedown on Saturday, June 9th!

NEW YORK (AP) -- Comments on the Cleveland Browns by the AP Pro32 panel (ranking in parentheses):
Chris Berman (ESPN, 23) -- Now their star rookies are getting hurt.
Clifton Brown (Sporting News, 22) -- Doubt if Nick Saban is coming, but Pat Shurmur could be going.
Cris Collinsworth (NBC Sports, 25)
Rich Gannon (CBS Sports/SiriusXM NFL Radio, 20) -- Four wins last year and four so far this season, don't believe it'll be enough to save Pat Shurmur and his staff.
Bob Glauber (Newsday, 26) -- Same thing, different year: Another double-digit losing season in Cleveland, to be followed by another coaching change.
Rick Gosselin (Dallas Morning News, 25) -- Trent Richardson needs 50 more yards to accomplish a feat the great Jim Brown could not for the Browns -- rush for 1,000 yards as a rookie. Of course, Brown only played a 12-game season back then.
Clark Judge (CBSSports.com, 23) -- Those Saban-to-Cleveland rumors have Browns' fans believing there really is a St. Nick.
Ira Kaufman (Tampa Tribune, 24) -- Like Miami, they need a few more weapons to keep defenses off balance.
Pat Kirwan (SiriusXM NFL Radio/CBSSports.com, 24) -- By my count the Browns have 82 starts by rookies and they won five games and played hard every week. That probably isn't enough for the front office, but two years from now we may find out keeping Shurmur was the right thing to do.
John Lynch (Fox Sports, 27)
Alex Marvez (Foxsports.com, 24) -- Could head coach Pat Shurmur have led Cleveland to the playoffs in 2013? It's looking like we'll never know.

5 a.m. snow day calls not welcome by everyone
Despite objections from some of its members, the school board Monday kept a policy on the current emergency notification system.
Nashua, Weare, Epsom and Hooksett use a similar system. Manchester parents can sign up for text message alerts.
For Goffstown parents who find the Power Announcement phone calls more annoying than convenient, there is an opt-out. That option is not available to teachers and staff, and one board member thinks that's unfair and a misuse of the technology.
Board member Dan Cloutier said he's concerned those early morning phone calls are a nuisance to spouses of school district employees who don't have to be up at that early hour. He said the system wasn't really intended to be used to announce snow days.
"The issue is getting a call on a snow day," said Cloutier. "Is that an emergency? In my regard, no. I agree with it when there's an emergency, but that's not what we use it for."
Buckley said Power Announcement is intended to deliver a message before teachers get to school. She worries staff members who opt out of the phone call could walk into a dangerous situation.
"Heaven forbid there's a gunman or something," Buckley said.
In addition to telephone, TV and radio, snow day notifications are sent using text messages and emails, Buckley said.
New board member Ben Hampton, who teaches at Manchester Community College, said a similar system is in place where he works, but teachers and staff can opt out of the early morning phone call.
"I think there's a better way of doing this," he said.
Buckley said only two staffers have asked not to be included on the list.
In Bedford, the school district uses Alert Now, a system similar to Goffstown's Power Announcement. Superintendent Tim Mayes said in Bedford two phone calls go out on the morning of a snow day, one at 5 a.m. for teachers and staff and the other at 6 a.m. for parents.
"We didn't use it initially for snow days," Mayes said. "But then we had a number of days out when the power was gone and they said, 'This is great - keep doing it,'" he said. Mayes said since the system was put in place in 2009, no one has asked to be taken off the call list.
Mayes said snow day cancellations are also made using Twitter, the school district's Facebook page, as well as television and radio.
Scott Earnshaw is the parent of two children who attend Bedford schools.
"I think it's convenient to have the calls come through," he said.

vacation rental description
"Loons' Nest"
This charming Adirondack style chalet is nestled in a private wooded setting yet less than a five-minute stroll to beautiful Loon Lake.
Enjoy lake rights to a lovely sandy beach with off-shore float and separate boat launch area. Swim or fish in the pristine waters of this large private lake or use our 15-foot canoe or 3 kayaks to explore the winding shoreline and secluded bays. Take in breathtaking mountain views while being entertained by the lake's namesakes - the magnificent loons. Hiking trails abound and part of the lakeshore and surrounding woods is untouched forest.
The chalet is warmly decorated Adirondack style with knotty pine on the main floor and spacious loft. In addition to a fully equipped kitchen with new stove, new refrigerator and a dishwasher, the main floor has a full bath, master bedroom with king size bed (or two twins) and a second bedroom with queen size bed. The loft has three twin beds. The living room boasts a fireplace and large picture window, satellite TV and DVD/VCR. A full screened in porch is a wonderful place for quiet reading, morning coffee or nighttime star gazing. You might even catch sight of a deer feeding at the edge of our large grassy lawn. A small, open deck off the screened in porch has a gas grill for your convenience or build a campfire in our fire ring and toast marshmallows. There is a picnic table and firewood is provided.
The lower level of the house can sleep 3-4 with a queen sofabed and a full sofa bed. These additional beds, along with a second full bath with shower, make this a very comfortable vacation home for up to 8 people (maximum). The spacious lower level is also a great "family room" with a second TV, DVD/VCR as well as a foosball table and a variety of games and movies.
Located 25 minutes north of the village of Saranac Lake, Loon Lake is only 35 minutes from the Olympic Village of Lake Placid. Here you can visit the Olympic Center and ski jumps, take a virtual ride on the bobsled and luge runs or hike along High Falls Gorge on the nearby Ausable River. A gondola ride up the world famous Whiteface Mountain is only a few minutes away. Golf, rock-climb, horseback ride or just relax and enjoy the incredible surroundings. And, if you are so inclined, there is shopping and dining galore.
Please, when e-mailing for information, put Loons' Nest Rental on the subject line so that we know it isn't spam.
Our caretaker lives nearby to provide added peace of mind.
