5 Reasons why we won't have a 7 August election
1. Howard's best chance is to give himself as much time as possible to expose and reinforce the flaws in Latham's character. The longer he waits, the more likely there will be Latham gaffes and the more chance there is for dirt to be flung and stick. Howard loves a good mudwrestle.
2. The US election is not until the first week of November, and any tricks that Bush has up his sleeve will came out late ("We're all going on Osama holiday..."). If Howard goes early, he will miss out on the massive boost that this will provide.
3. Howard has said in the past he thinks three years between elections is short enough as it is, and that governments should sit for a full term. And Howard would hate to be a hypocrite.
4. The Senate cycle will become unhealthily out of sync. Regardless of the date, the Senators elected at the next election will not take office until 1 July, 2005. With an early election, there would be an 11 month gap between election and taking office. This means that there will almost certainly be a Senate-only election in the next couple of years.
5. August 7 is Bledisloe Cup night. Nuff said.

Enjoy your blog and have email you seperately to that effect. You are dead right in saying August 7 will not be election day, but I am not convinced about your stated reasons. For one, I doubt Howard gives one minute's thought to the Senate implications of an early poll, nor do I think the Bledisloe Cup had a bearing. Indeed, Howard would be wise to go to the polls a few hours before the All Blacks flog the Wallabies. As far as the US election goes, Howard would be unwise to hitch his domestic fortunes to those of Bush (www.pollingreport.com will give you a clear idea why). Put simply, he won't go to the polls until either he thinks he can win or the constitution demands it. And he has only spent a fifth of the $100 million he has put aside for pre-campaign propoganda.

The Argos in the centre of Harrow is very small and cramped. It gets very busy and often there is no space available to look through the catalogue. The staff are quite good and, on the whole are quick, polite and professional.Most of the time there is a long wait for your order. This store is often out of stock so it is best to check on the internet for stock availability before making a special trip.There is no free parking available and there is a long walk to your car if you have big or bulky goods. I would choose the Argos in South Ruislip before the Harrow Branch as there is free parking available and smaller queues.

Coming into this weekend, I was feeling rather positive. Purdue would play in a good neutral environment down in Texas that would not give any team an advantage. I thought Washington would give Purdue trouble, but Purdue would be able to overcome it, and I thought Purdue would just steam roll over Rice.
I was wrong.
Against Washington, Purdue and Washington kept it close until the end of the 1st set and then Washington took off to take the first set 25-21. After that, no matter what Purdue tried, they couldn't stop Washington or get around their blockers. Ariel Turner and Anna Drewry had some great attacks from what it sounded like on the radio, but they were simply returned by Washington's blockers. Purdue finished the match with a -0.012 hitting percentage. Yes, you read that correctly, Purdue had a negative hitting percentage as they finished with 23 errors and 22 kills with 81 total attacks. Washington showed no mercy this afternoon, and finish the sweep with a 25-9 beat down in the 3rd set. It was the first time Purdue has been swept since September 18th, 2010, when Purdue was swept by Cincinnati in the Big Ten/Big East Challenge.
Purdue's stats against Washington were unimpressive, as Washington just outplayed Purdue in every aspect of the game. Washington out blocked Purdue 13.5-2.0, which was a big reason for their upset over Purdue. This game was over so quickly, I was able to listen to nearly the entire game during my 1 hour class break. After the game, Coach Shondell said on the radio that based off that performance, Purdue isn't ready for Big Ten play just yet. I'd also suggest that Purdue isn't ready for a deep run into the NCAA Tournament, even with home court advantage, as Washington will be a team that will make a deep run in the tournament as well. However, there is a silver lining to this loss. Last season, Washington swept eventual National Champion UCLA, so if past is any indication, Purdue can bounce back as it is still early in the season.
However, if Purdue was going to bounce back, it didn't seem like bouncing back against Rice after the Washington lose, and managed to pull out a 5 set win. Purdue was still having a hangover from their lose against Washington and allowed Rice to get an early lead in the first set. Though Purdue was able to rally, it wasn't enough as Rice took the first set 25-23. Purdue bounced back through in the 2nd set, winning its first set of the Tiger Classic 25-13 as freshman Annie Drews and junior Katie Griffin had some significant kills in the set that help propel Purdue to a 2nd set win. The 3rd set was back and forth with 11 ties and 4 lead changes. Purdue had 4 chances with set points but was outsmarted by the Owls as they won the set 29-27. Though the 4th set was close, Purdue led most of the way winning the set 25-21, setting up a 5th set to hopefully avoid another upset. Purdue didn't look back in the 5th set either, winning the set 15-9 to bounce back in the Tiger Classic.
Purdue outhit Rice 0.302 to 0.210 as Ariel Turner, Annie Drews, and Val Nichol each finished with double digit kills. Carly Cramer also proved to be vital in the back court with 30 digs in the night, and was backed up by Davis, Turner, and Miller each having double digit kills as well. The game wasn't pretty, but it was a step in the right direction after the Washington lose. From here, Purdue will face LSU tomorrow in the Classic finale. Purdue will struggle with LSU tomorrow if it continues to play the way it did today, and could face another upset as well. Purdue just needs to get the victory tomorrow, come back and reset before heading out for the Big Ten/Big East Challenge next week.

It seems these days that every picture not released in the last ten years is ripe for a remake, and even some more recent ones, if they had those tricky subtitles or foreign accents -- Pajiba reported a few days ago that a US version of last year's excellent Australian gangster thriler "Animal Kingdom" is already in the works. And it doesn't look like the trend is going away any time soon: The Hollywood Reporter tonight suggested that, with the departure of Warner Bros. studio exec Jessica Goodman, old projects have come to light that were thought buried.
Veteran executive VP Goodman left the company at the end of last year, and her development portfolio has been shared out among colleagues, which means potential new life for a whole spate of remake, of Warners properties like "Lethal Weapon, "Westworld," "The Wild Bunch," "The Dirty Dozen," and "Tarzan." Though there's no word yet on which, if any, of these films will be fast-tracked by the studio, with fresh eyes looking at these stale projects, we bet that at least one will see the light of day soon.
Most of the projects have been in various stages of development in the past: Arnold Schwarzenegger was long-attached to a "Westworld" remake, while David Ayer was attached to re-envision "The Wild Bunch," in a contemporary version set among Mexican drug cartels. "The Dirty Dozen" was also set for a contemporary re-rub a few years back, with Guy Ritchie considering the director's chair, while Stephen Sommers was briefly attached to helm "Tarzan" for the studio, and the George Burns comedy "Oh, God" was rumored only last year to be heading for a new version, with Paul Rudd and, predictably, Betty White wanted for the lead roles.
The "Lethal Weapon" news, however, is new, and we can see plenty of people up in arms about the idea -- after all, it's not like there haven't been plenty of knock offs of the film as it is. It's worth bearing in mind, however, that there's not much point in getting too angry about the prospect of any of these films: the likelihood is that only one or two of the films mentioned above will make it to production within the next few years. Still, it just goes to show that anything one can think of, Hollywood has tried to remake, even if we never hear of it in the news. -- Catherine Scott
Todd Gordon | January 21, 2011 12:47 AM
Russel Crowe was rumoured to be attached to Westworld recently, but he tweeted something like "don't believe everything you read" so I am assuming he isn't
MDL | January 20, 2011 8:42 AM
A remake of The Wild Bunch seems nonsensical. I wouldn't touch films that are damn near perfect. Plus it's an auteurist film if ever there was one. Would be like someone someday remaking Citizen Kane or Chinatown.
starway2001 | January 20, 2011 7:54 AM
Seems like "Westworld" is the only one ripe for a remake. The books was so much better than the first movie.
Gabe Toro | January 20, 2011 3:56 AM
I love how they throw Goodman under the bus as she's leaving and escape future culpability by claiming all these bad ideas came from "her portfolio."
KitCon | January 20, 2011 3:45 AM
The absolute worst reboot idea I've heard is Annie starring another of Will Smith's charming progeny. The likability gene is missing in those kids. But I'm in the minority since it'll probably gross $350+M worldwide.
hackattack | January 20, 2011 3:01 AM
Would it be a Lethal Weapon Reboot? Scratching my head on this one. It's not so much that I care if they do a remake...more like how will they/ why would they?
TJ | January 20, 2011 2:41 AM
The Lethal Weapon reboot should start with Riggs three days short of his retirement, paired with a young, straight-arrow African American, played by Jaden Smith, who is kind of an amazing Doogie Howser-esque super cop.
Queue the "I'm getting to old for this shit," plus a dose of irony...I smell box office gold, and a chance for Mel to take back his box office crown. If there's a way to bring Busey back, even better.

By Wainwright Jeffers - bio | email ALBANY, GA (WALB) – As south Georgians hold onto their money pretty tightly during the down economy, it's been hard for some shows at the Albany Civic Center to succeed.
But some local promoters say they've got the right entertainment at the right price.
Young buck enterprise production is hosting our first Southern Funk Fest at the Albany Civic Center Labor Day Weekend. General admission is $25.
In the recent past the Ricky Smiley and Friends show had to be canceled because of poor ticket sales.
Organizers say they want to bring a quality show to Albany people will support. Lakeside, cameo, and Morris Day and Times are scheduled to perform.
"we spend an hour going back and forth deciding what we'll charge," said Sonja Brown, Young Buck$ Enterprise.
The Steve Harvey Show, Tyler Perry's plays, and Disney Live have had success at the Civic Center
In 2009 total attendance at the civic center and Municipal Auditorium was right at 140,000.
Convention and Visitors officials say those people had a 7.2-million dollar economic impact on the city.

D.W. asks from Austin, TX on February 11, 2009
T- Ball for 3 Year Old
I am looking for a T-ball team for my 3 year old in the northwest Austin area. The only one I have been able to find that will start them that young is the YMCA but you have to be a member and I am not. Please let me know if you know of one. Thank you!!
More Answers
M.S. answers from Austin on February 12, 2009
They have t-ball for 3 yr olds through the Brushy Creek Community Center. You don't have to be a member to register. It's in Round Rock, but not too far from NW Austin. Good Luck!
C.M. answers from Austin on February 12, 2009
Moms recommend the following deals from Mamapedia:
S.M. answers from Austin on February 12, 2009
Majority of the leagues in the Austin/Round Rock/Cedar Park area do not start t-ball until minimum age of 4. The YMCA will be your best bet at this time if you want your child to play at this early age. I wish you luck.

J.T. answers from Austin on February 12, 2009
All the t-ball teams I know about usually don't allow a child to sign up until they are 4 years old. However, Dr. John's Sport Center in Cedar Park might consider your son if he shows advanced motor skills. You're welcome to check them out at:
The only reason why I know this is because I was one of the t-ball coaches last fall and they allowed one or two 3.5 year old children to play. Good luck!
H.P. answers from Austin on February 12, 2009
You may want to double-check on the Y because you don't have to be a member to participate in their sports-its just a little bit more expensive. Good luck!!
C.B. answers from Austin on February 12, 2009
Dear D.,
As far as I know you don't have to be a member of the YMCA of Williamson County (Round Rock). You pay a little more because you are not a member. My friend had her daughter play and was not a member.
Hope this helps.

Caleb Porter and the Timbers: Mutual interest?
Getting word Timbers and Akron/U23 coach Caleb Porter like one another. Others from #mls/ussf/#nasl in mix. Decision timetable unclear— Steven Goff (@SoccerInsider) August 21, 2012
SoccerInsider tends to be on the money with these types of rumors. Can't say I mind hearing the Timbers interest him. While unproven at the professional level, his raising of the Akron program to national title levels and the grooming of such players as Mattocks, Zakuani, Bunbury and our own Darlington Nagbe certainly would bode well for his prospects. Thoughts? Believable? Good news? Or is there someone else preferable you'd like to see get the job?

By Jennifer Emert - bio | emailOctober 7, 2008
ALBANY, GA (WALB) - The District-one Dougherty County School Board candidates continue to sling mud at each other. Tuesday both camps fired off allegations.
David Maschke attacked Richard Anson's mis-statements over how much it cost to determine that School Board Attorney Tommy Colemen's office had over billed the district. Maschke also said Anson's flew in early to several out of town conferences, didn't attend scheduled sessions, turned in receipts for restaurants that included liquor purchases and left before the meetings ended.
"He goes to the event early sometimes two days before it starts sometimes four days before it starts and he never stays for the full conference, just like he does with school board meetings sometimes he comes sometimes he doesn't," said David Maschke, District-1 Dougherty School Board Candidate.
"I go to the sessions that interest me and I've never overspent my budget going and Mr. Maschke as a matter of fact needs to start attending more meetings, he's not abreast of what's going on," said Dr. Richard Anson, District-1 Dougherty County School Board Candidate.
Retiring District Attorney Ken Hodges endorsed Anson today at West Town Elementary School. Hodges said during that school's expansion, Maschke wasted taxpayer money by launching allegations of fraud and mismanagement. Maschke says his questioning saved the district a million dollars. Maschke challenged Anson to debate him, Anson told us he accepts that challenge.

An early look at Boston College bowl projections from various media outlets. Spoiler: No Orange Bowl #bceagles
Daily links, news and notes for Boston College athletics.
The 2011-12 ACC bowl lineup is nearly set, with seven of the conference's nine bowl dates and times set.
Not to be confused with the bowl formerly known as the "Meineke Car Care Bowl (of Charlotte)" ... now Belk Bowl, where BC has a perfect 2-0 record.
Bowl Team Team Brian Jeff Brian Jeff New Mexico UTEP BYU UTEP +12 BYU -12 L W Humanitarian Fresno State Northern Illinois Fresno St. +1.5 NIU -1.5 L W New Orleans Troy Ohio Troy -1.5 O...
Bowl game attendance for games where ACC teams participated were mixed in 2010-11.
We've reached the midpoint of the college bowl season. Eighteen bowls down, just 17 to go. And through 18 bowls, the fix is still in ... though the gap between first and second has been closed...
Despite N.C. State's 23-7 win over West Virginia in the Champs Sports Bowl, the ACC owns a winning record in just 3 of their current nine bowl game tie-ins.
Boston College basketball won the battle of the boards against Bucknell, snapping a four game streak where the Eagles got outrebounded. Can BC continue to win despite getting beat on the boards?
RIP Utah's bowl game winning streak, which ends at nine games with the Utes' 26-3 loss to Boise State. But just how legit are bowl game winning streaks, anyway?

The Minnesota Department of Health on Tuesday reported historic or near-historic lows for
teen pregnancies, teen births and teen abortions, but has also reported survey information showing high school students are more sexually active than they were five years ago.
Increased access to birth control, particularly birth control pills for young women, might explain why abortions are down but sex is up. Credit is also being given to the increase of "comprehensive" sex ed programs in schools, which teach about birth control and abstinence, but also show teens how unprotected sex could disrupt their life goals.
Recent state data on teen behavior from the 2010 Minnesota Student Survey reports that half of high school seniors have had sexual intercourse -- 46 percent had reported they were sexually active in 2004. In 2010, of those who hadn't had sexual intercourse, 25 percent of 12th-grade girls and 17 percent of 12th-grade boys said sexual education in school had influenced their decision to wait until they're older.
In total, the state abortion report says that the number of abortions in Minnesota dropped from 11,071 to 10,701 -- the number has dropped every year since 2006. In 1,229 instances, the individual having an abortion was under 19.
Judith Kahn, executive director at Teenwise Minnesota, will address these statistics as well as tips for parents to talk to their kids about sex on FOX @ 9.
2006: 14,065
2007: 13,843
2008: 12,948
2009: 12,388
2010: 11,505
2011: 11,071
2012: 10,701
Of the 10,701, over half had never had another abortion.
None: 6,389
One: 2,450
Two: 1,103
More than two: 746
Not reported: 13
In 5,496 instances, the woman who had an abortion had used contraceptives in the past, but not at the time of conception. In 3,677 instances, the woman reportedly had used contraceptives at the time of conception.

OOC: Remember to pass me the answers you two
((OOC: Sorry I'm late! What do we do with the written portion?))
Jay only nodded, going to write his test. He was totally ready; and he knew this would be a piece of cake.
((Answer the questions, but send Flame Haze the answers via Private Message.))
After finishing, Jay stood up; giving his test answers to the teacher. Walking back to his seat, he cracked opened a book; reading the content inside. "Now to start where I left off..."
After returning Umbreon to her pokeball Piper sat down in one of the seats staring at the sheet, thinking I can do this. She hoped she could as she started writing down the answers carefully studying each one.
AC had arrived at the Academy on his Braviary but had decided to keep quiet until he had gotten the entrance exam thing over. He had called back his Braviary and had followed the rest of the students to where the exam was going take place and took his seat. AC, being extremely intelligent about practically everything including Pokemon, had no worries about the questions and by blocking everything else out he had managed to concentrate at the questions. As he first read over the questions, a smile appeared on his face as the questions were seemingly easy. Thus, he began answering them.
((Gah... Answered the questions without looking at the OOC))
Cole answered the questions quickly, his words written precisely on the page. He then handed the paper to a nearby teacher and sat back down, looking bored.
"Shouldn't be too hard." Evan says. He was sitting next to Matthew, cross-legged, as he usually did when he was about to do some serious thinking. He took out the pencil and began writing on the test in extremely neat handwriting, almost indistinguishable from a computer font. Perfectly ordered, he wrote somewhat long answers. He was almost done when the student next to him was accosted for having a Pokemon out.
"If you want to cheat, you're welcome to borrow my paper." Evan whispers to Matthew, not moving his lips or turning his head.
Matthew did not reply.Instead, he walked to the instructor, handed him his own finished paper to him, and walked to find a new seat, one as far away as possible from the kid who just spoke to him.The last thing he needed was a kid like him screwing up his chances at getting in to the academy.
He found an empty seat next to a Alma, who apparently decided to take a nap.Doing his best to not disturb her, he sat down quietly and began reading from his psychology book again.
A few people had started to turn in their tests, so Tyson walked over towards the nearest teacher, who was actually pretty far away. He turned in the test and turned around. He saw an open seat nearby, so he plopped down in it. Tyson looked around and saw an Indian girl behind him.
Calvin and Camille decided to turn in their tests, and sat back down, toying with their Pokénavs to pass the time.
"Why aren't I done yet," Maria gulped as she finished her own test before handing it down to the intructor, there were a few answers that she didn't even know were right and some she was just letting her gut lead her.
Adam looked around before deciding to enter his test, he had been done a few minutes ago but decided to wait for more people to finish before he handed his answers down.
Joshua smiled while looking up at the students as a man with long flowing black hair walked over, he was wearing a black colored long coat with a black sweather under it "How are the new batch this year?" the man asked Joshua who turned to look at him.
"They seem good a lot of them have already turned their tests in," Joshua replied before grabbing the MIC. "I'm quite impress actually." he then turned to look at the students. "All right time's up." with this half of the students let out a gasp. "Oh right I forgot to tell you the test ended when I got bored," he replied with a grin. "Remember this when you enter no matter what if you're smart or stupid you have to get things done and get them done quick. Also those of you that turned it in even if you don't pass this you may take the other two. The ones that didn't turn it in...better luck next year," he shrugged before walking away.
Matthew stood, deciding to brace himself for his likely not-so-average performance for the physical exam that would come next.
He was unsure of where to go next, so he walked to the instructor, and asked "Where;s the next leg of the entrance exams?"
At that moment, Cephalos decided to let himself out of his Dusk Ball, effectively scaring the... well you get the idea, out of his trainer.
"Your Pokemon is out." Evan points out to Matthew, also turning in his test.
Matthew, semi-bitterly, muttered "Thanks I had no idea. Any other completely obvious facts you'd like to waste my time pointing out?"
Cephalos landed on Matthew's shoulder, glaring at the other person.

It is difficult to comprehend the scope of the tragedy that has struck Newtown, Conn., where a gunman Friday killed 26 people at an elementary school, 20 of them children.
Police say Adam Lanza, 20, also killed his mother, Nancy Lanza, at their home then drove to the school where he opened fire on school personnel and the children. Lanza killed himself at the scene, bringing the total number of dead to 28.
It is heart-rending to think of the loss suffered by the families of these children, all first-graders. We extend our deepest sympathy to the families of the victims, their friends and loved ones.
It's impossible to determine what might have motivated Adam Lanza to commit such a horrible act. In the end, there rarely is an understandable motivation behind the actions of mass murderers. They are not rational and their "reasons" are known only to themselves.
In the wake of such tragedies, the same questions arise. What must we do?
Andover Public Schools Superintendent Marinel McGrath has some helpful suggestions. We must talk to our children, she said in a letter to the community.
First, parents are encouraged to "protect your young children from repeated viewings and auditory exposure to news accounts" of the school shooting. Provide only as much information and reassurance as the child seems to want or need. Children often may not be interested in a lengthy conversation about this, and will be satisfied with a brief reassurance.
Emphasize that they are safe and that they are loved.
McGrath also had words of hope and optimism for those touched by this tragedy.
"We are all in this together; loving and caring for the children of this community," she wrote. "For all of us as adults, I trust we will find a way to draw reassurance and comfort from each other and the affirming messages of this holiday season. The bad news is not all of the news, and we have so much to be thankful for."

As a Republican lawyer, I am appalled at the conduct of Congressman Trey Radel of Florida. His decision to take a leave of absence is not, in any way, sufficient. He must immediately resign. We Floridians deserve to have our elected representatives in their seats working for our interests, solving problems. It is a rare privilege to be a member of Congress. The speaker and our governor must insist on either resignation or expulsion.

GOP Rep. Sweeney Faces Ethics Questions After Lake Placid Gathering
by Brian Mann
Apr 13, 2006 — Republican Congressman John Sweeney is facing tough questions over his involvement in a weekend retreat last January in Lake Placid that included more than twenty of his staff, family-members, and supporters. The New York Power Authority paid for the event, which had a price tag of $25,000. It was hosted by the Olympic Regional Development Authority. The roster of guests included powerful Republicans, including the brother and sister of former White House chief of staff Andrew Card and a top GOP lawyer who has represented Tom DeLay. At least four Democrats also attended, including aides to Senator Hillary Rodham-Clinton and Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid from Nevada. Organizers say the trip was a legitimate effort to build federal support for Olympic venues in Lake Placid. But as Brian Mann reports, critics say the gathering was a taxpayer-sponsored vacation for politicians and lobbyists. Go to full article
Alcoa Future Uncertain in Massena
Mar 29, 2006 — The labor unrest comes as Alcoa's future in Massena remains unclear. Alcoa's talks with the New York Power Authority over a new power contract have stalled. The aluminum giant has offered to guarantee 500 to 700 jobs in exchange for locking in some of the lowest electricity rates in the country. That's several hundred fewer than today's employment level of about 1000. The Power Authority is holding out for more jobs. The Power Authority says it's waiting to hear back from Alcoa for talks to continue. Alcoa's Sue LeClair says no meetings are scheduled, but the company is willing to return to the table if progress can be made. David Sommerstein spoke more with Ernie LaBaff about the stand-off. He's president emeritus of the Aluminum, Brick, and Glassworkers Union International. Go to full article

Relief, Mistrust Among Mohawk Neighbors
May 22, 2003 — The announcement of a landmark deal between Governor Pataki and the St. Regis Mohawk Tribe is starting to sink in amongst the tribe's neighbors. The agreement addresses tax parity and casino issues. But in the areas around the Akwesasne reservation near Massena, the big news is a proposed settlement to the Mohawks' claim that New York illegally took 15,000 acres of land in the 18th century. Today non-native residents own that land near the St. Lawrence River in northern St. Lawrence and Franklin counties. As David Sommerstein reports, some people are taking things in stride; others with trepidation. Go to full article

Every man has a breaking point, and it appears Perry Fewell may have reached his. The NY Daily News reports this morning that Fewell may intend to skip his interview in Carolina among others citing that he doesn't want to be a 'token interview'. As it stands there are four teams who requested to interview Fewell, Denver, Carolina, San Francisco and Cleveland. Three of those four team have other minority candidates slated to interview, but Cleveland does not. Fewell has a firm interview with Denver on Sunday, but it's unclear whether he plans to visit other sites.
Regardless of who else is coming in to interview this situation with Fewell highlights the unfortunate aspect of the NFL's 'Rooney Rule' to ensure minorities get equal opportunities for high level positions inside NFL organizations. While Fewell feels used, and rightfully so, at least in Carolina it doesn't appear to be the case at all (from Gantt):
I can promise you from conversations with folks up and down the building, Fewell is a very serious candidate here, and possibly a favorite.
Unfortunately this could mean both the Carolina Panthers miss out on a good prospective coach, and Fewell misses out on a good opportunity solely because he's been bitten, and now shy.
More analysis after the jump...
A greater problem with the Rooney rule is thus: as pointed out by 'OldhamA' and other posters yesterday Ron Rivera has been interviewed by numerous NFL teams too, and at least a percentage of those were tantamount to 'Rooney interviews' to just satisfy the by-law. Should Rivera decide he's tired of being used too and withdraw Carolina sit with other two prospective interviews, and neither could be hired due to the Rooney Rule.
Let me be as clear as I possibly can: Carolina is not a team who sets up 'token interviews'. Gantt cites the 2002 coaching search where 3 of 4 interviewees were minorities. If Carolina truly followed this 'token' methodology we wouldn't see a higher propensity of minority candidates.
The unfortunate sidebar to this entire issues is that it again gives the national media unfair ammunition against the Carolina Panthers. I understand Fewell's ire at being a 'token candidate' in the past, but to unfairly throw the Panthers organization out with the proverbial bathwater is an unfortunate situation. What this leads to is a milieu where outside of those who understand how this organization operates we will be characterized as a cheap, racially prejudiced organization with an owner who looks lecherous.
It's an unfortunate and untenable situation and I only hope Perry Fewell takes a second look at the Carolina Panthers and doesn't lump us in with other bad situations in the past.
Coaching note: It's been said a few times before, but per Gantt the Panthers are looking for "leaders, not celebrities" and believes the mold will continue to be Mike Smith/ Mike Tomlin type guys.

Tom Baker Should Be Knighted!
Over at Doctor Who Online, we have long-believed that Tom Baker - star of Doctor Who and world-appreciated actor - deserves to be recognised in the Queen's Honour List, and should be knighted! If you appreciate Tom Baker, and his contribution to British Television and Film, and feel he should be knighted, please sign the petition!
For making millions of childhoods magical, arise Sir Tom.
Gareth Lee-Thomas
A human playing a human alien but with the gravitas of Anthony Hopkins. Tom is loved and respected deeply and could so easily have been adopted as a highly paid yank. Such loss later in life with young lights dying ahead of their time, Tom has so much to offer and has given so much. I know it's not about this any more, but I would follow this man into battle and trust him to represent the views of every Brit as a diplomat and envoy of the British people. Sir Tom. It gets my vote.
Reverend Father John Trigilio, PhD
Since other actors of stage, screen and television have been knighted, then Tom Baker has every right. His talent and brilliant performances shine the best light on British culture and entertainment. He is admired and loved in the former colonies as well as Great Britain.

Now that the NFL season is nearing its finale, it's a good time to see how scandal-tainted Trogans fared in the NFL this year. (Translator's Note: Trogans do not "turn pro," they "move to the NFL." because at Southern Cal they are already pro football players -- without the literacy requirement.)
Let's count down the disappointments:
5. Matt Leinart -- would rate higher but only played part of one game and was unfortunate enough to be knocked out for the year. This prevented him from showing whether his known (from Arizona) character, leadership, and work habits would have maintained the playoff position the team's starter had set them up for.
4. Reggie Bush -- actually had a pretty decent year, but was not a difference-maker enough to keep his coach from being canned. Mouthed off that someday he will break the NFL single-season rushing record (apparently so he will be mentioned alongside his role model, OJ Simpson). Continued to make Khardashian news.
3. Carson Palmer -- quit on his previous team, demanded a trade, got moved to the we-dont-play-by-the-rules-either Oakland Raiders, signed a fat contract, and managed to lead his squad to losses in the final 3 contests, thereby choking a playoff spot and (like Reggie) getting his coach fired.
2. Pete Carroll -- took his team once again to a losing regular-season record, despite playing in a division where he gets the poor Cardinals and the horrendous Rams twice apiece. He scored this accomplishment by cutting his QB (who promptly took his new team to a winning season in a tough division) so he could give the reins to a worse one. A close look at the wins the SChawks had reveals several were against teams suiting up backup quarterbacks. Bonus points for losing his last chance at a .500 season -- to Jim Harbaugh.
1. Mark Sanchez -- like his role model Leinart, his own teammates denounce his poor work habits, entitlement attitude, slowness to learn, and distractedness by outside activities (in his case a supermodel). Like Palmer, choked down the stretch to deny his team a playoff spot --- after they were predicted to make the Super Bowl. Bonus points for losing a vital game to a disappointing opponent who'd fired its coach -- by being outplayed by Bruin Matt Moore.
Cheat Pete and his progeny continue to prove that when the playing field is even, when cheating is unavailable as stock in trade, they may get paid well -- but they hardly earn it.

Postgame Quotes from warriors.com recap
Don Nelson
On tonight's game:
"You guys know what the two guards did, but I thought Tolliver played a heck of a game, guarded, rebounded and had a chance really to have a pretty good night, and he couldn't get any shots to go down. Of course, he's one of my few big guys left, so I thought it was important that he not foul out, and he stayed out of foul trouble and did a lot of good things. I thought Hunter came in and gave us a nice lift with the offensive rebounds, especially the big dunk at the quarter. Team effort, I thought we continued to play hard and try, and that's all a coach can ask for at this point."
On adjustmenting after falling behind:
"Yeah, we opened the court up. It's good to do that when you're not very big. And then we had one of our plays that worked, and we just nursed it, ran it all night, changed the catch man a few times, and it was all good. We just basically went with one offensive set the whole second half and a good portion of the first half. We didn't need to change, they hadn't stopped it. So we stayed with it."
On Curry and Ellis:
"Oh, it's great to see. They've played some really good games together and of course they've played some not-so-good games together. It's great to see when they share the ball and take care of each other when they're open. I thought Monta defensively wasn't very good in portions of the game, but down the stretch, when we put him on the point guard . . . I thought he did a really good job putting the lights out on their point guards. They were hurting us with their open shots and he did a really good job down the stretch."
Anthony Morrow
On tonight's game:
"It felt great man, got that monkey off our back. Guys really stepped up and played well, played a lot of good defense, got a lot of deflections, a lot of rebounds when we really needed them. We held Chris Bosh down a little bit, so it was a good win."
On the 16 made threes:
"Guys making shots makes it a lot easier on Monta (Ellis) and Stephen (Curry). They are doing so well in the pick and roll and they are making that pocket jump shot most of the time. Guys start coming up and helping out and they can find, me, C.J. (Watson) and Reggie (Williams). It's really just on us to make shots and help them out defensively."
Stephen Curry
On the 16 made threes:
"The fact that there is usually four guys that can comfortably shoot threes on the floor makes it hard for a defense to guard all of them, especially when the same guys can put it on the floor and get to the basket. It's tough to defend when we are knocking them down."
On the 41-point third quarter:
"We felt like we were still in the game, and we had to scrap to stay in it and get the lead, and especially late in the 3rd quarter you don't want to let them get a run going. We just dug down defensively, made them take tough shots and got rebounds and pushed it in transition."
Monta Ellis
On tonight's game:
"We just had to get a win. Before the game we said we had to just go out there and have fun and try and get a win. We made plays for other guys, and got everyone involved. It really stated on the defensive end, got a lot of stops, rebounded. They went inside at the beginning of the game and pounded on us, but we got ourselves together and became a scrappy team and got out and ran."
Twitter Fun
Bosh rips Raps: "Its like if you look at the schedule right now and see Toronto, I'm sure people are checking something in the win box. ..."
More Bosh ripping Raps: "... I can understand if we lose the game going down fighting. But we're not fighting at all."

A busy day in downtown Sioux Falls Saturday to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, events officially kicked off with a proclamation declaring this weekend the weekend of the St. Patrick's Day festivities. Also honoring Sylvia Henkin the founder of the parade as the official Grand Marshal.
Bagpipes carried the tune just outside along Phillip's Avenue while hundreds gathered for the annual painting of the shamrock. It is one of the many events downtown as thousands celebrate St. Patrick's Day weekend.
Sylvia Henkin founded the events 34 years ago and led this year as the Grand Marshal.
We caught up with Sylvia who tells us what it means to be here this year. "Knowing the people I'm turning it over to, it'll just be a continuation of what happened yesterday will be going on forever. My memory is not that long, it isn't that good but every time I see the pipes and drums, it's a day of happiness, good spirit and fun," Sylvia Henkin said.
Earlier in the morning it was a sea of green as hundreds of runners unofficially kicked off the weekend's events with the Annual St. Patty's Day run. A little on the chilly side but the runners were well-prepared as they hit the streets of downtown for a good morning workout all in the name of St. Patrick.
Finally what's a St. Patrick's Day weekend without the annual St. Patrick's Day parade. Dozens of fun floats loaded with green filled the streets of downtown from Main Street back up Phillips Avenue.

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) – Residents in the Pleasure Ridge Park, Valley Station and Kosmosdale areas are another step closer to being able to do some reading at the biggest branch library in Louisville.
At a meeting held at the current library, a design team unveiled the plans for the new Southwest Regional Library. The $13 million project will feature more than 100,000 books, a teen center and a large children's room.
$9.5 million is coming from Louisville Metro Government and $3.5 million is coming from the Library Foundation.
"Today we've showed how beautiful this thing really is going to be and it's going to be a gem for southwest Louisville," said Craig Buthod, director the Louisville Public Library.
Buthod said the new library will be modern, equipped with lots of computers and books, and will have huge children's library. The facility will also have 100 dedicated spaces for parking.
The new Southwest Regional Library will cover 40,000 square feet on four acres along Dixie Highway. It will replace the current facility located just south of Valley High School that is being rented.
The library will be one of three regional libraries planned for the city.

By 16 weeks, your twins will grow to 14.2cm long from crown to rump. They now weigh about 190 grams each. Your twins' unique fingerprints are already in place. And when you poke your stomach gently and they feel it, your twins will start rooting and sucking whatever is in front of their mouths, whether it is a hand, foot or an umbilical cord. This sucking reflex will give them the training they need for breastfeeding after birth.
If one or both of your twins are girls, they will now have approximately 2 million eggs in their ovaries; and they will have only a million by the time they're born. They will have fewer eggs as they get older, and by age 17, the number will have dropped to 200,000.
The fetuses' bodies are now growing faster than their heads. Your twins' parchment-thin skin covers itself with thick, downy hair called lanugo. Though eyebrows are beginning to grow and the hair on top of the head is sprouting, this hair may change in both texture and colour after birth.
Their legs are growing longer than the arms now, fingernails are fully formed and all the joints and limbs can move. You may be able to find out the sex of your babies by ultrasound now, since the external genitals may be developed enough that a sonographer or doctor can tell you if your twins are boys or girls.
At 16 weeks your twins' skeletons are mostly rubbery cartilage, which will harden later. A protective substance called myelin slowly begins to wrap around the spinal cord.
Their chests move up and down to mimic breathing but they're not taking in air, only amniotic fluid. They also start to have hiccups. Hiccups are an essential reflex used to train their diaphragms, the muscles they need for breathing when they are born.

Julian Miller had been waiting quite some time for the NFL
Draft to roll around so he could find out where he would begin playing the game
he loved at the professional level.
On Saturday, he relaxed at his uncle's house in Columbus,
Ohio, spending time with the people who meant the most to him on a day that
would determine his future.
The fourth round passed and he was not selected, but that
did not faze him. Many projections had Miller slipping all the way to the sixth
or seventh round, so he remained optimistic that is was simply a matter of time
before he received the call.
Fellow WVU defenders Bruce Irvin, Najee Goode and Keith
Tandy were picked off the board, but Miller's name went unmentioned.
As the seventh round wore on, he knew the moment he waited
for was not coming. Rather than a selection in the draft, Miller would take the
undrafted route with a free agent contract.
"It was out of my hands," he said Saturday night. "In
retrospect, it's just another chapter in my career. It just seems like it's
another card that I've been dealt and from here on out, it's just playing with
a chip on my shoulder. You hear that a lot, but that's something that's really
instilled in me right now."
Miller finished his career at West Virginia with the
second-most sacks (27.5) and tackles for loss (42.5) in program history. He was
named to multiple All-Big East first teams following his junior and senior
seasons for the Mountaineers, and yet he went largely unrecognized.
In truth, it was a trend of sorts throughout his time in
Morgantown. When he first came on the scene for WVU, he was the up-and-coming
freshman who would make a splash as a sophomore.
He did just that the following year, but for the rest of his
career, he took a back seat to Irvin, the new star on the defense.
His nine sacks as a junior would have been the talk of the
team any other year, just not when Irvin tallied 14.
But Miller never paid attention to the individual accolades
– not publicly, at least. He was a team player and would do whatever it took to
help West Virginia to victory, even if it meant switching to the tackle
position in his final year to make room on the line for other players.
"I'm just happy that he did get a chance, but him being
overlooked is crazy because he's made a lot of plays, he's had a lot of sacks
throughout his career," Goode says of Miller. "He did what he had to do at WVU,
he balled out and I just wish somebody would have picked him up in the draft so
he could feel the same sensation that I did."
So when Miller watched his teammates come off the board, he
was happy, but at the same time curious as to what it was about him that he
couldn't join them in what they were feeling as the day wore on.
"Honestly, it hurt. It really did," says Miller. "It hurt
because I know I went out there and played with those guys, I know I put in the
work with those guys and I feel as if production-wise, I put up numbers with
those guys and I just feel like the recognition should have been there from
somebody. From here on out, I've got a point to prove."
He has the change to prove his point in a city not far from
home and on a team he is familiar with.
Along with former WVU teammate Robert Sands, who the Bengals
drafted in 2011, Miller will also join Marvin Jones, a receiver from Cal who
trained with him in Arizona before getting drafted by Cincinnati in Saturday's
fifth round.
"Being close to home is always good," says Miller. "Knowing
the people around me and having that support group is definitely going to
benefit me in the long run."
He also joins the seventh-best defense from a year ago, one
that clearly will teach him well if he is able to stick around through the
Miller knows all that really matters is that he has an
opportunity. He has a place on an NFL team and now is the time he must show
exactly why every team that passed over him through the course of seven rounds
of selections made a mistake.
"It's a new me now," he says. "I've got my foot in the door
and this opportunity that I have in Cincinnati is going to mean a lot to me. I
have to prove people wrong and make a name for myself.

I uploaded 795 HQ screen captures of Johnny in his role as Barnabas Collins in his latest movie "Dark Shadows. Feel free to check them out!
- [x795] Movies > Dark Shadows > DVD Screen Captures
He's been a tipsy pirate, a crazed milliner, and a blade-fingered freak. Now Johnny Depp is trying out a different kind of role: book publisher.
The actor's imprint will be a division of HarperCollins and will bear the same weighty-sounding name as his production company, "Infinitum Nihil," which means "Nothing is forever." Already slated for Depp's imprint is The Unraveled Tales of Bob Dylan by journalist Douglas Brinkley, to be released in 2015. Brinkley and Johnny are already co-editing House of Earth, a long-forgotten novel written by the late folk musician Woody Guthrie, which is scheduled for some time next year.
If Johnny's choice in roles is any indication, his taste in books as an imprint head will probably run eclectic and at times prove way too cool for the average reader.
"I pledge, on behalf of Infinitum Nihil, that we will do our best to deliver publications worthy of people's time, of people's concern, publications that might ordinarily never have breached the parapet," said Depp in a statement. "For this dream realized, we would like to salute HarperCollins for their faith in us and look forward to a long and fruitful relationship together."
Other public figures who lead their own imprints include Chelsea Handler, Rachael Ray, Anthony Bourdain, and Glenn Beck.
What kind of books do you hope to see from Depp?
I'm glad to be sharing something with you that is totally different from the things we actually post on JDW. It has got nothing to do with any updates, rumors etc. but with excellent and brilliant fanart.
On Wednesday I received an e-mail by the very talented, award winning freelance director/editor Jamie Munton. He has always been interested and fascinated with movies and started to make his own films in his early teens. Today he's 23 years old and just graduated from a Bachelor in Film to work as a film editor in London. (Congratulations!)
This message contained a video that is called "Finding Johnny Depp". It's a short movie which developed when Jamie and his friends found out about a rumor that Johnny was living near their university campus in Cornwall. After some accurate research, they set off to see whether the rumors were true. Tthey walked from one location to another to gather more information… Thus "Finding Johnny Depp" was born!
This absolutely awesome film won the Delabole Slate Audience Award at the Cornwall Film Festival in 2010. I'm sure many fans will enjoy this movie, that's why I decided to share it with you. So, take the time to watch this presentation! By the way, make sure to check out Jamie's other works on his website. Thanks to Jamie for contacting me.
I'm actually extremely fuming and disappointed at the same time to read that many people, also some Johnny Depp 'fans' spread that rumor about his death on social networking websites like Twitter and Facebook. Suffice it to say, the rumors of Johnny's death have been greatly exaggerated. Therefore I'm glad to tell you that Johnny is alive and well!!!
The unquenchable bloodlust of social media has sadly struck again, and rumors ran rampant this week that the 49-year-old "Lone Ranger" star had died in a freak drowning accident on set.
Unfortunately, unlike the usual cliff-falling, freak-accidental celeb death hoaxes, this rumor wasn't exactly pulled from thin air. Last month, one of his crew members working on the Disney film died of an apparent heart attack while working inside a large water tank on the movie's Los Angeles set. His death was initially reported as a drowning.
While Johnny was in New York at the time, clearly some part of the tragic news got miscommunicated, resulting in this week's surge of reports of Johnny's rumored untimely demise (complete with Facebook memoriams and everything). Though Johnny is fine and well, it's not the first time he's been killed off by the Internet, as back in 2010 he was the (fake) victim of a fatal car crash.
Johnny Depp has decided to do less of his own stunts after injuring his back on the set of 'The Lone Ranger'.
Johnny injured his back shooting 'The Lone Ranger'. The 49-year-old actor was left writhing in pain on two occasions during action scenes for the Western film – in which he plays Native American Tonto opposite Armie Hammer, who portrays the title character – and he has now realized he can't do many of his own stunts and needs to rely more on a double.
A source told America's Star magazine: "While it's been hard to accept that he can't perform such demanding feats anymore, Johnny is seeing it. He threw out his back twice while shooting the movie and then had to push through, getting massages in between takes."
As well as suffering with back pain, Johnny has also been struggling with insomnia on set.
The Johnny Depp Web staff wishes him nothing but the best and much health! May he get well soon!
Finally, the first short teaser trailer for Johnny's upcoming movie "The Lone Ranger" was released. Check it out and tell us what you think in the comments below! I'm super excited! I also added 17 HQ screen captures to the image archive.

Not much is known about Wes Anderson's next film, "The Grand Budapest Hotel" – Anderson has been coy about plot details, simply referring to is as "Euro" – but one thing that seemed to be known was the lead, Johnny Depp. We spoke to Anderson on Saturday to discuss the Blu-ray release of "Moonrise Kingdom." During our conversation , "The Grand Budapest Hotel" was discussed and Anderson is still being coy about the details. Except one: It won't be starring Johnny Depp.
The rumor appears to have stemmed from a Deadline.com report in July, and was widely carried on a number of entertainment news sites, including HuffPost Entertainment. But Anderson says the story was without merit.
Your next movie is The Grand Budapest Hotel," which is reported to star Johnny Depp?
It's not Johnny Depp.
Oh, it's not?
No. There's a lot of… You know, the Internet has a way of announcing things on its own [laughs]. You will find that even though I'm very aware of the cast that has been announced on its own devices, you'll never find me saying who's in the movie. Or, as far as I know, anybody else. I really don't know where it all comes from. In fact, Johnny is somebody who I would love to work with at some point, but he's not going to be in this movie. But I actually have not put the cast out – I have not announced the cast. We have quite a great cast.
Johnny was the delight of the Comanche Nation fair on Saturday morning when parade watchers realized the famous Hollywood actor was part of the parade. On Saturday morning the entertainer was seen in a black convertible driving his way through the streets in celebration of the special event.
Arriving first in an SUV and then transferring to a convertible, the entertainer wasn't expected by the locals as people were worried about chaos. Instead, the shock of seeing the star as he rolled down the street had people screaming with delight and stunned to see such a big personality.
Johnny Depp has been doing his part to bridge the Native American community with his characters portrayal in the upcoming The Lone Ranger movie. Respecting the concerns of the Native American community and actively being involved in a fair portrayal of the character, there is a lot to be said about the effort's Depp has put into the film
Johnny Depp shows off his toned arms while going shirtless to film scenes for his upcoming action movie "The Lone Ranger" on Tuesday (September 25) in Arcadia, Calif.
The 49-year-old actor was joined on the set by his co-star Armie Hammer, who was spotted getting into character as The Lone Ranger atop his trusty steed Silver.
Shooting on Johnny's film started February 28 in New Mexico and is set to wrap at the end of September, according to THR.
