For some reason, many people weren't certain that Gilbert Melendez would stand and trade strikes with Jorge Masvidal last night (December 17, 2011) while defending his Strikeforce lightweight title in the main event of Strikeforce: "Melendez vs. Masvidal" in San Diego.
In all, the 25 minute bout spent less than 10 seconds on the canvas as both men looked to showcase their striking skills.
It turns out that Melendez was more than game enough to handle his taller, lengthier opponent on the feet as he turned in a strong performance which resulted in a clean sweep of nearly every scorecard.
So what did 'El Nino" do correctly to help him earn the decision? And what's next for both fighters?
Both men had very set plans of attack and they would primarily implement them over the course of the five round battle. Melendez looked to move forward, cut off Masvidal against the fence and lead the way with his punches, either snapping his left jab or throwing big 1-2 combinations in succession. He was also looking to throw a big lead uppercut as his primary power attack, either looking to land it to the head or the body.
Masvidal, however, was able to primarily ignore the uppercut because he utilized a more upright-centered stance. He kept his hands high in a defensive position and would occasionally flash his jab, which actually did cause some swelling on Melendez's face. Masvidal's secret weapon appeared to be his jumping knee attack as he tried to catch it with Melendez about one time each round but he never caught the champion napping.
For a significant portion of the bout, the following scenario would play out: Melendez would push forward forcing "Gamebred" towards the fence and then he would lunge inside throwing 1-2 combinations. He repeatedly landed his right hand to close off the combo and whenever Masvidal would get hit, he'd showboat, dropping his hands and moving his head around as if to say, "That was nothing. The problem with this was he did it so many times that it actually could have been used by the judges ringside as proof that Masvidal had been hit hard.
This scenario basically played out for the course of five rounds. Masvidal seemed content to lose the decision, never picking up the pace despite clearly being down in every round. There were only about 6 seconds of ground time and barely any clinch as both men were content to stand. The problem is that neither man was actually able to do enough damage or land anything significant enough to make the fight compelling or dramatic. It was jab, hook, back off, 1-2, over and over and over again. The judges officially scored it 50-45, 50-45 and 49-46 for Melendez to give him his third official title defense ever since he unified the belts with Josh Thomson.
For Jorge Masvidal, he proved he could hang with Melendez, but that appears all he was content on doing. Other than very few brief spurts of action, he was very defensive for much of the night. He worked his leg kicks pretty well early but the second Melendez caught a kick and took him down for a few seconds, he completely went away from them. Worst of all was that despite being down badly on the scorecards, he showed no sense of urgency whatsoever in the fifth round when he needed a home run. Instead, he actually spent the last 15 seconds of the fight pressing Melendez into the fence and looking for a takedown as if he thought he could steal the round and the fight. He either was being delusional or was getting very bad advice from his corner who told him he was winning.
Expect Masvidal to step in against someone along the lines of Gesias Cavalcante for his next bout, or perhaps fellow event loser Justin Wilcox. If he's finally healthy, they could also throw him in against former champion Josh Thomson.
For Gilbert Melendez, he put on a strong, aggressive showing but it wasn't the type of victory that will be getting people talking about him as the number one lightweight on the planet. Jorge Masvidal was number 24 in the consensus lightweight rankings. If the UFC did similar matchmaking, it would be as if Frankie Edgar took on Sam Stout for the title. One would expect a blowout, most likely a stoppage but Melendez just didn't seem like he could pull the trigger when he had Masvidal cornered. Every time the American Top Team fighter started bobbing and weaving goofily after getting hit hard, it seemed to force Melendez to back off. He should have punished Masvidal for his bravado but he simply didn't.
Who's next for a shot at Melendez's title is a mystery. If the promotion wants to give a title shot to someone from within, there are a couple options. Pat Healy is coming off a big win this past September over Maximo Blanco. Caros Fodor scored a huge 13 second knockout on the undercard last night against Justin Wilcox which gives him a 5-0 record in the promotion. Another intriguing option could be Gray Maynard, who fought for the UFC lightweight title twice this year against Edgar, drawing once and losing once. It's very unlikely he'll get another shot at the belt in the next two years so why not give him a shot against Melendez? That's about as relevant a fight as could be made but we'll just have to wait and see if it's a viable option.
So what did you think, Maniacs?
Were you impressed by Melendez's strong showing, or did you want more? Why do you believe Masvidal never kicked it up a notch event as time was winding down?
Opinions, please.

The pre-teen girls used words such as "proper" and "confident."
They walked with their heads up, their hands swaying gently at their sides and made eye contact with Stacey Carpin, executive director of the Michigan-based etiquette company Etissentials.
"What are we going to do? We're going to encourage, because that's what young ladies do," Carpin said.
The gaggle of girls learned how to give and receive gifts (say something nice about the gift), how to walk (head up), how to greet someone (eye contact) and proper table manners (no elbows on the table!) during the Saturday event put on by Etissentials (etissentials.com) in conjunction with the Holland Recreation Department for girls 8 to 12 years old.
"It's like a tool box. I'm giving you the proper tools. All these things you are learning are just tools so no matter where you go, you can pull out the proper tool," Carpin told the girls gathered in a private room at AlpenRose in downtown Holland. "That's all that manners are — making people feel comfortable by using the right tools for the situation."
The experience was meant to be a fun one for 8-year-old Ellie Rizk, but also one to "help reinforce some etiquette lessons," her mother, Chera, said.
"Honestly, I thought they were taking a lot of bad manners home from school. Dinnertime was not a joyful experience," mom Stephanie Adams said.
Her two daughters, Jayda, 10, and Keyana, who will turn 8 Monday, enjoyed the class.
Jayda piped up to say, "We really liked it, because when we walked … now we don't have to be all slouchy — and our table manners are better now."

The South Lake Tahoe Police Department is investigating a fraud case.
Police say a resident received a phone call from a man who identified himself as an agent with the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) on Saturday. The man told the resident he was investigating a mail order prescription purchase the resident had made in 2006.
Police say the resident was told to send or wire $1,000 to the man to avoid being arrested on charges for making an illegal prescription purchase over the internet. The resident did not send the money and called police.
The DEA says it's aware of this scam and posted a warning on its website about it. Police say law enforcement officers will never contact anyone and demand money in exchange for not being arrested and/or charged with a crime. They're advising everyone to never give anyone personal or financial information over the phone or e-mail unless you have verified who the person is and what company they work for.
If you have been the victim of this scam please contact the DEA at 1-877-792-2873 or notify your local police department.

People in the Lawrenceville area expressed relief at news that Osama bin Laden was killed Sunday by a group of highly trained Navy S.E.A.L.s. But some also cautioned that this is no time for America to let its guard down.
"I am elated and very happy that this has finally come into fruition. I am glad that his death will save taxpayers' dollars by not having to put him on trial," said Cheri Pizarro, wife of National Guard U.S. Army Infantry Specialist Frank Pizarro.
Pizarro said her husband, now in Mississippi, will be deployed for his second tour of duty in Afghanistan in three weeks.
"When I told Frank this morning what had happened, he too was so happy," Pizarro said. "My husband joined the armed services because of what happened on 9/11. As an immigrant who has become a citizen of the United States, after the 9/11 he was inspired to serve for the love of his country."
President Obama confirmed bin Laden's death in a statement Sunday night. Acting on months of surveillance of a known al-Qaeda courier, the U.S. military raided a compound located in an affluent section of a Pakistani town two hours outside of Islamabad.
Many Americans believe that the United States and its allies must stay vigilant in destroying the remaining members of al-Qaeda. Some are enjoying the severing of the head, with a cautious eye on the body that might sprout a new head.
"The worst thing we can do is act like this is over," said Lance Corporal Joshua Musser, a retired Gulf War Veteran and Lawrenceville resident. "I believe we will see an increase in terrorist plots and activities, as some among al-Qaeda will try to take bin Laden's place."
Musser was medically discharged shortly after suffering a traumatic brain injury while serving in Iraq and from post traumatic stress disorder in 2006.
"The U.S. needs to stay strong as these terrorist groups break up and eventually fall apart," Musser said. "We need to keep the momentum going in removing these types of leaders to make sure that it (the war in Afghanistan) ends properly instead of by just pulling everyone out."

Ralph Malbrough / Contributing Writer
The best part of the crazy free agency in 2011 is how excited I am for the preseason. Oh sure I know I'll probably only see all the new Saints players for like 10 minutes before my future auto mechanic is taking snaps and getting sacked.
Those 10 minutes will be glorious. Usually by August the Saints have finalized their entire roster moves and the excitement of the new free agent signings already passed in March. Not this year. Throw in the Dome renovations and I'm considering coming to town for the preseason opener. I can't believe I just said that.
The Saints by all appearances have wrapped up the eight-second like bull ride that is 2011 NFL Free agency. They resigned all major contributors except center Jonathan Goodwin, traded Reggie Bush and replaced him with a lightning fast lawn gnome Darren Sproles. They also added another giant defensive tackle in Aubrayo Franklin.
Here at the Forecast we love fat defense lineman because when they play well we can make jokes like, "Oh look Shaun Rogers and Aubrayo Franklin are gorging at the all you can eat QB buffet. Aaron Rogers looks delicious!" And if they are bad well, "Why did the Saints sign a bunch of fat guys? They could have signed any one of my friends or relatives if they wanted fat, slow and lazy and it wouldn't have cost as much." The jokes write themselves and really besides watching the Saints win I'm all about the jokes.
Saints fans will love Sproles and if stock were available in his jersey sales I'd be a buyer. He's tiny, super fast, and will score probably six or seven touchdowns of 25-plus yards. Punt returns will not be a break to go grab a beer from the fridge anymore.
The Saints also didn't do a couple of things; they didn't do any major upgrade at linebacker and they didn't chase Roman Harper off. Harper fits exactly what the Saints need from the strong safety on defense and the possible replacements weren't any cheaper/better. Besides Harper with his gray hair looks 45 years old and as I get older I like to pretend I'm the same age as the players.
Ever since Sean Payton has been the coach fans have wanted the Saints to upgrade at linebacker or to put it more bluntly…chase Scott Shanle to Canada. All I can say is we are going on year six of Shanle so clearly the Saints don't think outside linebackers are worth huge investments. They just don't. The Saints drafted Martez Wilson in the 3rd round to play on the weakside and brought in Will Herring as depth.
The Saints have won 27 games the past two years and a Super Bowl with outside linebackers best described as 'Extraordinarily Adequate'. Mickey Loomis values outside linebackers like you value a ceiling fan. It's important in the summer but not as much as air-conditioning. As long as it runs no need to have the best.
The Saints have also decided Matt Tennant will be the starting center. Tennant was highly thought of in last year's draft and this seems to me the Saints trying to save money so they can resign Carl Nicks to a long term extension.
Free Agency has gone so fast and furious the Saints signed a bunch of guys I never heard of who might contribute quite a lot this year. In November Turk McBride, Fabian Washington, Paul Oliver, and Alex Barron all might be important names. Barron is the only one I remotely recognize because he allowed 400 sacks in St. Louis.
Don't act like you know all these names. The Saints roster is 90 deep and about 45 of them you've never heard of. Don't believe me? Answer this question, " Who is a Saints receiver and who is a U.S. Senator?" Joseph Morgan or Johnny Isakson?
Don't you dare head to NFL.com.
Morgan is camp body receiver and Isakson is the U.S. Senator from Georgia.
As an Astros fan watching their GM Ed Wade sell off any valuable players they had left for a Groupon to a day spa I can honestly say the most under appreciated quality in life is competence. Mickey Loomis has it spades and the man navigated the craziest off season in NFL history almost perfectly and did the near impossible because he has me bouncing off the walls waiting for preseason football.

COACH CUTCLIFFE: First I want to comment on Sean Renfree, deserved recognition. I guess in the last seven or eight days now, he's one of the ten finalists for the senior scholar award in the NCAA, and now really appreciative of the National Football Foundation announcing that he was one of the 15 finalists.
Sean is a complete football player, certainly a complete student. Almost a 4.0 right now in Duke in graduate school. Also just a complete person. So we're very happy for Sean, his family, and certainly very proud of him.
With that said, I saw Florida State early in the season as we prepared to play Wake Forest. Obviously, you can't help but watch a team like that pretty closely. Even though I was focusing on Wake Forest. I thought it was the most complete team I've seen in quite some time. I still believe that now after seeing them and focusing on them, they may be the most complete team in the country. A lot of people question this about one team or this about another, and every position across the board, certainly their specialists in the kicking game, their coverage and return ability in the kicking game, I don't think I've seen a more complete team in a number of years. So, this will certainly be a huge challenge for our team. But they've done a tremendous job in Tallahassee. So with that, I'll take your questions.
Q. How do you keep your team focused when you're facing Florida State coming off such a high bowl eligibility for the first time since 1994?
COACH CUTCLIFFE: There are some challenges associated with that, because that's all people around them are talking about. They're good when they're with us. They have practiced well. I thought they responded well Sunday. You're a little emotionally spent after a late game anyway, but certainly one like that, I thought we were a little emotionally spent. But we have a light workout Sunday, but it's full speed. That helps. Win or lose, it helps to get out there and sweat. Monday they had the day off. They were better Tuesday, we practiced in the morning and much better today. But I think they realize they played Florida State last year and that helps. They know how good they are. They know they have to prepare to even have a chance in a game like this. So hopefully we get our energy as emotionally charged as well as we'd like, but certainly I think they've prepared well to this point.
Q. What are your thoughts on Florida State's running game now that Chris Thomsen's out for the year?
COACH CUTCLIFFE: I hate that for him, number one, and I mean that sincerely. He's a really fine football player, and I enjoyed watching him early in the year, as I said, as I was watching that team. He's been through some really difficult times. But they've got quality players there. Everybody knows that. Truly have quality players that can step up and do what they have to do.
That's part of having a great program, and they'll be fine running the football. You not only have to worry about their backs, but you have to worry about the quarterback who is a fine runner, and their receivers that do a nice job with their reverse game and different things with their receivers. So they've got a lot of weapons on that offense.
Q. Earlier today we were talking to Coach Fisher. He said one of the things that really impressed him about the game and about you guys was Will Monday and how he has‑‑ his length and his ability to avoid run backs has kind of flipped the field a little bit and makes the field position thing. Can you talk about that and the job Will has done as a freshman punter?
COACH CUTCLIFFE: Yeah, he's been tremendous. What it shows to me is that Jimbo, they understand, they put the same kind of emphasis on the kicking game. Watching their kicking game, I think they're really well coached, And a good football coach would notice that's helped us win games.
Will has been accurate. Will has great hang time. He's got a lot of good football left in front of him. He really has stepped up and taken challenges. I think that last punt in that last ballgame was indicative of the year he's had when he put that ball and pinned them inside the 10‑yard‑line we ended up giving up the score.
But the kicking game and what he did is exactly what you want a guy to do, so he is a weapon. We're very happy he's on our team, and of a great deal of confidence, because Will is a great, great worker at practice. I was out there with him this morning. I thought he had a great morning this morning. He is a focused young man. I'm very appreciative of his work ethic.
Q. You have another freshman kicker too who is leading the ACC in field goal percentage. 14 of 15, I think this year. Can you talk about the job Ross has done?
COACH CUTCLIFFE: Well, Ross has been so consistent, and it's because of how he works. He's had two really good days. He had a good day to day in the area of kickoffs has been good also. He's done a good job with location. He's done a good job when we ask him to try to get a touchback. He's moved the ball around into different locations so it's not just the field goal kicking, the place kicking.
They're both very mature for their age. They're a joy to work with. Certainly the best freshman pair, and I've had some good ones. But this is the best freshman pair that I've had as a coach, so that's exciting in that regard.
Q. Ross's long attempt is 43 yards. I saw him preseason, he kicked some quite a bit longer. How far out would you be comfortable asking him to kick?
COACH CUTCLIFFE: I'm a go for it on fourth down rather than try to make three points. But in a game winner, he's 55 yards, he's pretty darn accurate. The one he hit the other day would have been good, probably, from 60. He's got a very strong leg, but you just don't want to make a living attempting those kinds of field goals. He's having to try to attempt a game winner. I feel good about his preparation and his confidence level. We do those all the time or each week at practice. I think that 55 yards is never a great percentage, but he's certainly in range there.
Q. There's been already I think five or six instances this year of an ACC kid throwing for at least 400 in a game, and that is as many as we've seen in the last decade coming into the year. From where you sit, any rhyme or reason for it? Are we just seeing more skill right now in the passing game than we've seen in the conference in a while?
COACH CUTCLIFFE: I think it's across the board, across the country. It's like every sport, I don't know when it stops, but it just continues to accelerate the athleticism, the ability, the speed, the size of receivers help completion percentage. The number of attempts, obviously, have increased, because people see the explosives. They used to say how many bad things can happen when you throw the ball. Well, you don't see it as much anymore.
I think most of it is not just the quality of the quarterbacks and their ability to spin it and put it where they want it. When we're playing a receiver this week that's 6'5", 240 pounds and can run as fast as a guy that used to be a 6'1", 180 pounder, that's a good target. So I think it's a combination across the board. But it's also not just the Atlantic Coast Conference. I think it's Nationwide.
Q. As you speak right now the rumors are flying on Twitter about the possibility of you going to Tennessee. How committed are you to this program right now? I know we've had this conversation before.
COACH CUTCLIFFE: Well, you're the first one to mention that to me, and I've got a Twitter account, and nobody has tweeted me on that, Heather. I'm not focused on any other job other than this one. We're in a great place. The most important thing to me are the people. I have great admiration and friendship with our leadership here at Duke, right through the director of athletics, our entire program, our family, our staff is very, very happy here, so the only thing we're thinking about is Duke University.

He died during a 40-minute gun fight
with police-- now investigators say the Middlebury man didn't kill himself.
George Demarais, 57, told police he
wanted to die by suicide by cop. He started a gunfight with police. Officers
eventually found Demarais dead in a heavily-armed bunker in his backyard.
Last week, police could not say if
Demarais killed himself.
Now, investigators say his gunshot
wounds were not self-inflicted. Bullets recovered from his body will be sent
for testing.
Two officers involved in the shooting are on paid

Just this past Monday night (Feb. 10, 2014), WWE ran Raw at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. Because of that, Stone Cold Steve Austin showed up backstage to tape content for his podcast, The Steve Austin Show, with various wrestlers (John Cena, Big Show) and managers (Zeb Colter) while shooting the breeze with all the wrestlers running around throughout the evening.
Well, today's Steve Austin Show: Unleashed dropped and Austin had an interesting take on what the atmosphere was like:
"It was a pretty interesting atmosphere there. As I say in some of the interviews to come with some of the talent that I just talked about with Dutch Mantell, Zeb, with John Cena with Big Show with Steve Regal, you know, some people are walking on eggshells over there a little bit. There's only one game in town. The WWE superstars hold themselves to a very high degree of professionalism there but maybe somewhat walking on eggshells, afraid to piss anybody off because there really are no other options when you get booted out of WWE. Hopefully these cats will start taking chances, or chances within reason. And if their gimmicks aren't so great to rethink these gimmicks and present them to Vince, who is a business man and will take the time to listen to anybody who's got an idea. That's the thing about Vince, he's always willing to listen to an idea. He's busier than a son of a bitch right now with this network about to launch. He seemed a little preoccupied when I talked to him and I think he's got a lot on his plate and a lot going on."
He also talked about the roster being thin but the top of the card being wide open for someone to break through:
"Now, it's true that the powers that be do not believe in certain people. It is up to the talent to make management believe in them and give them a push. There is a pretty thin roster of talent in that locker room. There's a lot of guys and gals, but when you talk about the cream of the crop, you're talking about the best. Vince McMahon will let anybody be a star that has the potential to be a star. ... The doors are wide open, the ceiling is unlimited."
And we have to pass along this hot take of his on WWE booking Rey Mysterio in the number 30 spot in the Royal Rumble match and why it was a bad decision:
"That guy's had an incredible career and I laughed at old Rey Rey and said 'god damn, Rey, number 30 in the Royal Rumble, who in the fuck do you got heat with?' And I told Vince, I said 'god damn, Vince, I wasn't doing nothing, if you need a god damn 30 spot in a Royal Rumble throw down a phone call. I'll put my god damn knee braces in the bag, and fly down to be your number 30 spot in the Royal Rumble'. I said 'don't fuck Rey over like that; shit, Rey's a god damn babyface.' They should have stuck a heel in that spot. So Rey Rey was laughing and he rode off into the sunset and that just goes back to booking, man. You can't have a cat like Rey Mysterio in the number 30 spot when the whole crowd is wanting and cheering for Daniel Bryan to come join the Royal Rumble and throw a bunch of trash over the top ropes and go to the main event in WrestleMania. I still don't understand that booking decision. That would have been a very opportune spot for a real hot heel. That would have been a very good spot for one Wade Barrett. Make him the number 30 spot, let the people boo him, that's what they're trying to do anyway. Common sense booking, shit."
The entire podcast is well worth the listen, and you can do that below.

(with another Rod Thorn video interview)
Here is a portion of the story for Thursday's paper:
"We haven't done it," said team president Rod Thorn of drafting international players. "We might do it this year. There are several of those guys we like."
Also, "There are a lot of foreign players that are going to be in the top 15 or 16 — more so than usual," Thorn said. "All of them are 'bigs' and all of them are skilled."

Hi there,
Are you using $Title to render it out? Basically, in XHTML all ampersands must be represented as & which is the HTML entity for the ampersand.
If you're rendering the title out as $Title, try using $Title.XML instead which should fix the problem.

Tyldesley couple on Channel 4 show Coach Trip
Updated 2:00pm Thursday 23rd January 2014 in News
HITTING the open road with a group of strangers may not sound like holiday heaven - but for one couple it was an opportunity not to be missed.
Radio presenters Mark Kelly and Kelly Roughley took part in the television game show Coach Trip after advertising on their own show for contestants.
"Mark decided that as they were looking for contestants we should have a go," said Kelly.
"I thought it would be a bit of a social experiment," said Mark who admits to not enjoying the company of strangers or coach travel — the two main features of the Channel 4 show.
The pair live in Tyldesley with their two daughters, Leah, aged eight and four-year-old Beth.
They are radio hosts for Salford City Radio and entertainers, working under the stage name Okey Dokey Entertainments.
"This is very different to anything we have ever done before," explained 37-year-old Kelly.
The show is hosted by flamboyant tour guide Brendan Sheerin who takes seven couples on the journey. During the trip, which takes in Belgium, Luxembourg and Italy before heading to Marbella, couples are voted off by their fellow travellers.
"Brendan is absolutely brilliant, he holds it all together," said Mark.
At the end of each day the couples gather and the couple with the most votes collects a yellow card. Once they get two yellow cards they are voted off and replaced by a new couple.
Mark, aged 41, and Kelly do get voted off but after scheming and back-biting by other couples they decided it was time to go.
Mr Kelly said he became annoyed with one particular traveller who was flirting with his partner.
"I basically went all out to get voted off as I'd had enough," said Mark, who admitted it is easy to become 'paranoid' and wonder what people are saying about you when you are in such a confined space for such long periods of time.
"It was an experience but we won't be doing it again."
The pair visited Belgium and France before leaving the competition.
They got the opportunity to try chocolate making in Belgium, have a go at human table football and go scuba diving.
The new series of Coach Trip starts on Monday, January 27 at 5.30pm.

GLASGOW, Scotland (AP) -- Two men have been found guilty of sending letter bombs to Celtic manager Neil Lennon and two prominent fans of the Glasgow club.
Trevor Muirhead, 43, and Neil McKenzie, 41, were found guilty of conspiracy to assault Lennon, Celtic-supporting Scottish lawmaker Trish Godman and the late Paul McBride, a lawyer who has represented Lennon.
Sentencing will take place next month.
The packages were intercepted before reaching their targets and did not explode.
The incidents took place in the weeks after a tumultuous Scottish Cup match between Glasgow rivals Celtic and Rangers in March 2011, when three Rangers players were sent off before Lennon and Rangers assistant manager Ally McCoist became involved in a heated exchange after the final whistle.

With two Oscars holding down his mantle, it seems that Christoph Waltz is in the position of being able to do whatever the fuck he wants. Lately, that means jumping onto some interesting projects, including Tim Burton's drama "Big Eyes," the Stephen Gaghan project "Candy Store," and he's already wrapped Terry Gilliam's "The Zero Theorem." And next? How about a procedural?
Waltz is now aboard "True Crimes," a project his "Carnage" director Roman Polanski was kicking the tires on a couple years back. Based on a 2008 New Yorker article by David Grann, the true story kicks off in December 2000 with Dariusz Janiszewski found dead in the Oder River in Poland. Police investigated, but after six months the case ran cold and was presumed unsolved, until detective Jacek Wroblewski (Waltz's role) picked it up. He targeted Krystian Bala, a Polish intellectual for the crime, and the investigation grew more interesting when it was revealed that the murder had some eerie similarities with Bala's book "Amok." Soon Jacek "becomes entangled in the dark underworld of Poland's sex rings, prostitution and drugs" as he tries to solve the case.
Said to be in the vein of "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" (which every Euro thriller is compared to now), there's no director yet but apparently, Polanski is still interested. So we could see a little reunion here if that works out. Brett Ratner is one of the producers which is still mind boggling, and a distributor needs to be found.
But this sounds like a nice transition for Waltz into a more subdued, serious role rather than the more flamboyant stuff he's done with Tarantino. Hopefully, this gets moving soon. [THR]
Cure | June 10, 2013 5:27 AM
I doubt Polanski will direct this. His next project will be a film of the historical Dreyfuss-Affair. This project is already a long time in pre-production and the Screenplay by Robert Harris is finished (there will be also a Novel by Harris later this year published "An Officer and A Spy"). I don´t think Polanski will delay this or that Ratner will wait for Polanski to be finished with the Dreyfuss-Project.
Jude | June 8, 2013 12:20 AM
Well, he has played "subdued, serious" in his very long career, he didn't spring out of nothing, he was very good when he did movies in Germany as well and it's great he has the chance to prove his craft. Plus, I don't think it's a procedural...more the story of an obsession.

well polanski was in rush hour 3...

Every year the Times Higher Education publishes their list of the the top universities in the World. This year the University of Washington is #23.
What is interesting to note is that 4 of the top 25 schools are from the PAC-10 (4. Stanford, 8. Cal-Berkeley, 11. UCLA, 23. Washington).
If you look at the top 100, then there are 8 PAC-12 Schools:
4. Stanford
8. Cal-Berkeley
23. Washington
67. Colorado
95. Arizona
And Arizona State is #161, placing 2/3 of the PAC-12 in the top 200 universities in the WORLD.
And BYU fans wonder why they weren't invited to join the PAC? I think this clearly identifies the academic excellence the PAC is trying to uphold, and why Colorado and Utah were chosen.

Suburban Dreaming
Moshi Moshi
02/25/09 at
I think I'm crazy, baby, let you off the hook too easy.
If you were a telephone, you'd still be off the hook.
What do I do when you get close?
If I kiss your neck, would you slit my throat?"
--Brand New, "Moshi Moshi"
The window, cracked as it was, let in a breeze that brought smells of summer in with it, and the sound of children playing at the park made me smile over my coffee. I turned the pages of the back issue of Rolling Stone that I was perusing, feigning interest in what the reviewers had to say. Pretentious douche bags, I muttered, tossing the magazine back to its loathsome spot on the coffee table. If Rolling Stone were the Bible, pretty sure Kings of Leon would be Jesus.
I sighed, tucking some stray hair behind my ear and turning up the volume on my laptop so I could hear it from the kitchen. I refilled my cup, spilling a bit of coffee on my hand and muttering a string of curse words in the process. I could be the one to turn you out, we could be the talk across the town, broke through the Brand New song that was currently playing on my computer. Jason Mraz only meant one thing: he was calling. I rolled my eyes.
Hello? I answered.
Homo? he replied.
Hi there, I said, smiling, even though I was a little pissed off at him for having his phone off when hed asked for a wake-up call.
What are you up to?
I was reading. Im about to play some solitaire and listen to more Brand New.
You like playing with yourself! Can I come over? he asked. I have something kind of important that I want to talk to you about.
Yeah, sure, like I said, Im not really doing anything.
Give me ten minutes. We hung up, and my text alert started going berserk.
Just a heads up, hes mad at you, it said. The text was from his best friend. As if I couldnt figure that out on my own. Boys are stupid. A few minutes later, there was a knock at my door. He never knocks. He knows he doesnt have to. I let him in, wondering what the hell I could have possibly done to piss him off.
There was something almost predatory about the way he was staring at me from across the room. Two blazing emeralds, brimming with his anger that he kept under weak wraps, cut right through my skin and charred my soul to a deep black.
Hi there, I said, stepping towards him and feeling the tension in the room soar to new heights. His face softened, its hard edges smoothing and contorting back to normal as his anger dissipated.
I cant be mad at you, he said. I just wasnt happy that you had Aly over when I was here the other day. You know how I feel about that.
She was dropping off some pillows for me. She was here for maybe five minutes, I replied, my agitation turning my voice to gravel.
Look I told you I didnt care that you were friends with her still, but she lied about me to my best friend, her husband, and maybe that doesnt mean anything to you, but its pretty much ruined my friendship with him.
Excuse me? If HE hadnt been here when you came over, she never would have stopped in. You were drunk anyway, I dont understand what the big deal is.
I just dont want to be around her. I told you that. I dont think I should come over anymore if shes going to be randomly popping in, he explained, leaning up against the wall.
Maybe you shouldnt, I said, kicking myself as the words tumbled from my mouth. Besides, you know, Andrew has been spending more time over here than you have recently.
I dont care.
I know you dont, I just meant that I rarely ever see you, and when I do, nine times out of ten, youre pissed off. I didnt invite her over. She was dropping something off and picking Andrew up. She was around for a total of 10 minutes. Youll survive.
Whatever. I dont want to be around her at all, Kelsey. As in never. It was a condition of me starting to hang out over here again that she never be around. Ill start coming over again once you learn how to keep your word.
Excuse me? Keep my word? I replied, picking up a shoe. I had every desire to throw it at him. In my mind, I saw his look of surprise as the heel made contact with his testicles. An internal giggle escaped.
Yeah, tell her not to come over when Im over here.
Fuck off! YOU need to learn how to keep YOUR word. Do you know how many times you say youre coming over here, and I end up waiting around for you for absolutely nothing? Do you know how many nights I have made plans with you and been left alone? Do you know how much it sucks to be disappointed by the one person you think you can count on? Keep my word Fuck you. Maybe you shouldnt come over anymore, I said, putting the shoe on.
Where are you going? he asked.
Anywhere that youre not. And by the way, you wouldnt know it because your phone was off, but I did give you that wake-up call you were asking for at 6:30. I stayed up all night so I wouldnt miss it and have you be late for work because no one called. All night. And here you are, yelling at me about something that happened a week ago. Well, fuck you. I dont know if I want to hang out with you anymore. I put on my other shoe and grabbed my hoodie and Becketts leash. She came and sat beside me, and I secured her. Lock up when you go, I instructed. We left my apartment, my face flushed with heat because of my anger. I hightailed it down my buildings stairs, and took off across the parking lot.
Kelsey! Kelsey, wait, he yelled, coming through the back door. Dont go. Im sorry, he said, jogging to catch up.
I used to like you because everything was so simple with you, I said, turning to face him. Beckett sat expectantly at my feet, and I scratched her ears.
Whats not simple anymore? he asked.
I dont want to talk about this anymore, I replied. You just have no idea what I go through for you. And I dont even know why. Youre not my boyfriend. You dont want to be my boyfriend, and I dont really want you to be anyway. I just like us. Our friendship is fun, and theres no real pressure. But you dont see that its wrong to stand me up all the time, maybe because there isnt pressure on us. It IS wrong. It makes me really mad, and when I confront you on it, you act like you have no idea what Im talking about.
Im sorry. Im a flake Thats all there is to it. Youve known this since we met in 2004.
Maybe you should try to fix that. When you fix being a flake, Ill start keeping my friends who actually show up when they say theyre going to away from my apartment for you.
I said Im sorry, he said, stepping close to me and putting his hand on the back of my neck. Can I get a hug?
No! Im still pissed off at you, I said, stepping out of his embrace. He closed the distance between us once again, pulling me up against his chest.
Please? he asked, looking into my eyes. I felt the earthquakes start deep in my stomach, a gentle shake that meant my resolve was crumbling, once again. I wrapped my arms around him, and he held me up against him.
I hate you, I said, pressing my forehead against his chin.
I hate you too, he replied, leaving a kiss there, acting as a catalyst for the real tremors to start. We walked Beckett around the park for an hour, making little comments about this and that. His hand found mine halfway around the pond, squeezing gently and gripping my fingers between his. When we got back to my apartment, we curled up in my bed, facing each other. He tucked my hair behind my ears and pulled my head back against his chest. We napped like that for a few hours before he headed to his meeting at work, and I went back to playing Solitaire, alone in my apartment with the breeze coming in through the window, spilling secrets of the upcoming spring season. If only all of those well-wishers in my yearbook could see me now. Have a great summer, they scrawled, in sloppy high school handwriting.
Im going to. The breeze told me so.
same douchebag as usual
same old shit
me being a weak little pussy

Gary Williams Career NCAA wins: 600+ and counting
Your Career Wins: 0
Gary Williams Level Of Involvement With the Program: 24/7 Job, Sees Practice, Has a feel for the attitude of each player etc.
Your Level of Involvement: You see the game
I honestly don't mean this to antagonize anyone who wants to make the argument that so and so should play more. That's your prerogative.
However, I really don't think any of us have enough information to make a critique of Gary Williams' lineup management. I kind of grow tired of those out there (not anyone in particular) who say "Cliff Tucker should get more minutes" or "Why is Choi playing" because we just aren't in a position to know who should be out there and if we were, we aren't as talented as an NCAA coach in terms of talent evaluation and management.
That's why I'm a strong adherent to only criticizing a coach's lineup management when the results are consistently bad. That's the only way that someone with limited information can make a complete argument about lineup management.
The other problem I have with these lines of attack is that it is always a zero sum game that leads to proponents of one player attacking another player who they feel should is getting minutes at their player's expense.
But even if I indulge you guys, I can think of several plausible reasons why everyone's favorite pet player didn't get any PT against EKU:
Padgett: He's shown flashes but he clearly has a lot of work to do. I don't think it would hurt him to ride some serious pine this year and just take in the game, getting minutes only when foul trouble or fatigue dictates. He's not an immediate impact player but with time, he can be special. That's why its important to bring him along the right way and not rush him into situations where he is bound to fail and lose his confidence. It seems to me it would not be good to play a freshman against an extremely unorthodox team like EKU who wants to make the bigs guard the perimeter--perhaps exposing a weakness that other teams can continue to exploit. Next year if we play EKU, I'd expect him to play because he'd have a year of learning his perimeter assignment under his belt, but for now it's probably too much to ask him to guard a small quick guy on the perimeter.
JWill: OK he got 9 minutes after a breakout game. Folks this is vintage Gary Williams...it's putting the player back down to earth. JWill has A LOT to learn, and some wonderful skills to work with...but when it comes easy early on, sometimes you don't put the work in to get better...so I can definately see why Gary would want to prevent him from getting on a roll when he's not yet playing his best...especially when we can afford to do so against lesser opponents...more PT doesn't always equal better development and I think Gary is bringing him along like a star prospect should be...slowly and deliberately ,making him aware of where he is at and what he needs to accomplish
Tucker: Folks, he's simply inconsistent...great talent...great kid...I met his parents at one of the tourny games last year...great family too...he's simply got to get more consistent in regards to not turning it over and playing solid defense before Gary Williams will let him on the court on a consistent basis..
As for Choi, I have no clue why some insist on knocking him...he seems to be a decent prospect to me...he's got long arms, a nice jumper (in warm ups at least)...and seems to not be too shy about bangnign around inside...I think Gary realizes taht with two more years, Choi could be a key contributor by the time he leaves, but with him it's all about PT and confidence because he's a foreign player...I think some on this board will eat their words about Choi but either way he's a terp and lets avoid saying he doesnt deserve his PT

Sam Mitchell, a former NBA Coach of the Year award winner, will interview for the open Minnesota Timberwolves job, reports Jerry Zgoda of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune. Mitchell spent 10 of his 13 seasons as a player with the Wolves. He coached the Toronto Raptors for four seasons and change, winning C.O.Y. in 2007 after taking the Raps to an Atlantic Division title with a 47-35 record.
Mitchell joins an eclectic crew of Wolves candidates, including Don Nelson, Larry Brown, Bernie Bickerstaff, Terry Porter and Mike Woodson. Rick Adelman had discussions with Wolves GM David Kahn, but didn't visit Minneapolis as the others did. Mike Fratello has also been mentioned as a potential candidate.
The Wolves fired Kurt Rambis in July after the team went 32-132 in two seasons under the former Los Angeles Lakers assistant. However, that 32-132 record is also stuck to Kahn, who arrived in 2009 and has rebuilt the roster. Kevin Love made the All-Star team in 2010-11, but the rest of the roster remains unproven and, in many cases, unappealing.

NJ announces charges against German, Cyprus ships
Associated Press
NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — Federal officials from New Jersey and Delaware plan to announce legal action against two international shipping companies for environmental violations.
New Jersey's U.S. Attorney Paul Fishman will be joined Monday by Delaware's U.S. attorney and the U.S. Coast Guard.
Fishman alleges two shipping firms based in Germany and Cyprus have violated the Act to Prevent Pollution from Ships. Fishman says the charges are related to the deliberate concealment of vessel pollution from four ships that visited U.S. ports in New Jersey, Delaware and Northern California.
More details will be made available at a 1:30 p.m. news conference in Newark.

Committed to a green policyFormat Werk's Managing Director and CEO, Mr. Thomas Riemer, explains the company's policy: "Throughout production we strive to use raw materials that are managed in a responsible way. To live up to this ambition, we have set up a multi-faceted environmental system, which is also part of the quality control. This enables us to guarantee the sustainable credentials of the highquality raw materials we use and their sources."
A brand new green finishingWhen Bekaert introduced Ecobind® - bookbinding wires finished with a carbon neutral, colored coating, developed specifically for the ecology-minded producer and consumer of spiral bound stationery - Format Werk immediately saw the potential. The coating on the Ecobind® wire is a 'green' polymer completely derived from natural resources. While having the same technical properties as petroleum based polymers, Bekaert Ecobind® decomposes when left in an industrial composting environment. Following thorough testing on the characteristics of Ecobind®, Format Werk's production manager Kurt Mayer concluded various successful quality trials. He comments: "Ecobind® fulfills our needs completely and is an ideal addition to our spiral products."
Partners in green product innovations"In these times we must strive to realize every detail, every item and every idea that might contribute to saving our environment," adds Mr Riemer. "The combination of our paper products and Bekaert Ecobind® is a positive example of how sharing expertise can help achieve these goals. Having a partner like Bekaert is crucial. It has the same environmental awareness and motivation as Format Werk to continuously improve products while keeping an eye on nature." Marcelo Xavier, Global Market Manager at Bekaert, underlines the importance of this cooperation: "Format Werk's belief in Ecobind® clearly illustrates the market's needs forenvironmentally conscious products. Bekaert Ecobind® has closed the natural cycle and fits the Format Werk policy perfectly."
Format Werk now uses Ecobind® for all its spiral and double loop products in the Formati®, Format-X® and Ursus Green products as well as its Private Label range.

Kevin Goldstein at Baseball Prospectus has listed his top ten shortstops in the minors (subscription required). Interestingly enough, three of the top six are Angels:
#1 - Brandon Wood - "This year, he hardly gets any attention, yet he's having another great year. He leads the minor leagues with 60 extra-base hits, and is among the Texas League top five in home runs, RBI, and slugging percentage..."
#3 - Erick Aybar - "If these rankings where based solely on most fun to watch, Aybar would win hands down. He's one of those guys who adds style and pizzazz to everything he does, and with his baseball skills, he can do an awful lot..."
#6 - Sean Rodriguez - "currently ranking sixth in the minors in total bases as he's finally found some consistency at the plate to take advantage of a lightning-fast bat..."
As an addendum - Alexi Casilla might have made this list if he hadn't played 2B most of the season.

1st baseman Kila Kaiihue was promoted to Triple A Omaha yesterday by the Royals after posting a line of 314/463/624 with 26 HR, 80 BB, and 41 SO. He's a bit old for the league at 24 years old, but it's an impressive line nonetheless. For me, the most impressive aspect is his discipline; if the HR power isn't legit, he looks like he could at least be valuable as a high OBP guy.
What does everyone know about this guy? Is he a legit prospect?
Also, milb.com lists his dob as 3/29/84, exactly one year old than his brother Kala. Is that correct, or is milb.com wrong and they're actually twins?

Alberta – The cost of innovation just got cheaper
R&D Tax Update, April 2008 (08-4)
After being in the company of only Prince Edward Island, and trailing the rest of Canada in its support of innovation through a scientific research and experimental development (SR&ED) tax credit, Alberta announced that it would introduce a SR&ED tax credit effective January 1, 2009.
The credit will apply to all expenditures eligible for the federal SR&ED credit, up to a maximum of $4,000,000 of expenditures annually. Calculated at 10% of eligible expenditures, this provides a company a maximum credit of $400,000.
While any credit would have been welcome news to businesses doing innovative work in Alberta, this credit provides an additional benefit: it is fully refundable for all companies. The refundable status is expected to provide additional support to start-up and early-stage companies that may not be paying income taxes or that are in a loss position.
By paralleling the expenditure eligibility of the federal government, Alberta has provided for broad eligibility rather than selective, industry-specific credits as have been introduced in other provinces in Canada and jurisdictions around the world.
With an estimated total benefit to companies starting at $60 million annually and growing over time, this new SR&ED credit provides an additional incentive for companies to invest in research and development activities in Alberta. This places Alberta in a more competitive position to attract SR&ED activities compared to its provincial neighbours, including British Columbia, which has a 10% tax credit (refundable in certain scenarios), and Saskatchewan, which has a 15% non-refundable credit.
More details will be released in the coming weeks, including specific legislation that will outline the mechanics of applying the credit. For more information on the changes announced in the Alberta budget, or regarding the SR&ED program in general, please contact Bruce Swan at (403) 267-1733, Jelena Pludowski at (403) 503-1374, or Mark Bernard at (780) 421-3732.

Courtesy Spokesman-Review
The Lake City and Post Falls girls soccer teams battled through 80 minutes of scoreless play followed by two 10-minute overtime periods that decided nothing in the State 5A championship game Saturday afternoon.
So the teams had to go to penalty kicks, and Lake City prevailed to capture the state title in a hard-fought final.
Post Falls (13-7), which captured its first Region I championship last week to earn its first trip to state, had beaten Lake City in two of three previous matches. The Timberwolves, who had to win a play-in match a week ago to earn a state berth, outlasted the Trojans in the match that counted the most.
"Both teams played unbelievable," second-year Post Falls coach Briggs Anderson said. "We knew it was going to be really hard. They know us really well and we know them really well. It's tough to win on PKs, that's for sure. The biggest thing is if you look back to (regionals) to now, we went through without conceding a goal. To be runners-up in state and not give up a goal, that's difficult."
It's well chronicled now, but LC had a team meeting late in the season in hopes of turning things around. The Timberwolves did just that.
"We talked about that we don't know how good we can be and we've got to keep moving forward," LC coach Matt Ruchti said. "I showed them a clip of a video of a cross country runner finishing on her hands and knees and I said, 'Let's finish the season, let's finish what we started Aug. 7.' We just kept playing and said, 'Why not us?'ƒ|"
LC's final record isn't glamorous at 10-6-4. That makes no never mind to Ruchti.
"Still to this day – and my group of players would agree – we still haven't played well," Ruchti said. "That's a unique thing coming into a state tournament. It's a talented group, it's an interesting group and the sky's the limit for them as far as what they can achieve."
Both teams had half a dozen scoring opportunities before the title had to be settled in a shootout.
"The net for both was very well protected," Anderson said.
All five LC shooters made their shots, the final one coming off the foot of sophomore Meaghan Bare. LC goalie Tiegan Horton made a save on Post Falls' second shot, and Horton appeared to have thwarted another. But the ball deflected to her left and then spun back into the net.
Just before the players began the shootout, Anderson smiled as reporters walked past him and said, "Kind of fitting."
Both teams had to go to extra time or a shootout to decide their state matches.
"As far as heart and pure will, this team showed that they've got that and then some," said Anderson, who graduates just one senior, four-year starter Katie King, a midfielder and the team's leader. "We've got a lot to prove and a lot to build on."
LC senior defender Kassie Torres was well aware where the Trojans' top scorer, sophomore Kelcie Hedge was, throughout the match.
"I've got to give a lot of credit to Kelcie Hedge," Torres said. "She's a really strong player up top and she's been the main one we've had a hard time with all season"
Ruchti agreed.
"Hedge is the most effective, if not the best player, in the state tournament," Ruchti said. "We had the luxury of seeing it all year."
Torres couldn't have written a better ending to LC's season.
"I'm so proud of my team," she said. "We've been talking about finishing and look what we got – we finished."
LC was fortunate the ball bounced its way in the shootout,
"It could have easily have gone the other way," Ruchti said. "Post Falls worked hard enough to win that game and we worked hard enough to win that game."

Hi, I am new to J2ME and I am developing an application that implements a simple SMTP client using the socket protocol to send an e-mail. Here the code to create the connection:
StreamConnection socket = (StreamConnection)Connector.open("socket://smtpserver:25", Connector.READ_WRITE, true);
InputStream input = socket.openInputStream();
OutputStream output = socket.openOutputStream();
The InputStream.read(byte[], int, int) method is used to read data and the OutputStream.write(byte[], int, int) to send data.
When I run the app on the emulator, all works fine. Welcome mgs received from the server, HELO cmd sended and the response correctly received, ecc...
When the app runs on a Nokia 3650 device, it correctly receives data from the server (ie. the welcome msg) but when it sends the HELO cmd, no response was received and, after some minutes, the device receives the error msg "451 Timeout waiting for client input"
What could be the reason for this strange behaviour? How can I solve this problem?
Thanks, Massimo

Holy Saturday sometimes known as Easter Eve or Black Saturday is the day after Good Friday. It is the day before Easter and the last day of Holy Week in which Christians prepare for Easter. It commemorates the day that Jesus Christ's body laid in the tomb.
Holy Saturday is sometimes called Easter Saturday, though this phrase is more correctly applied to the Saturday in Easter Week.
Many churches hold an Easter vigil (watch) service. Discussions about the meaning behind the rituals, prayer and symbols that are all part of the Easter vigil occur during these services. Some churches also hold large baptism services on this day.
In Mexico Christians burn effigies of Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus for 30 pieces of silver. Street vendors sell the effigies, which range in height, and make Judas look as ugly as possible. Effigies designed for children are stuffed with candy and hung in patios at people's homes.
Other effigies are seen on the streets or hung on lamp posts. Firecrackers are attached to many of these effigies and are ignited as soon as the Mass of Glory is over. Children scramble for the candy inside the effigies after they explode.

It doesn't matter how long ago you found out about it; Holiday Road's association with the 2013 Chicago Blackhawks has been wacky and unexpected. From humble beginnings as the theme track to a series of Chevy Chase movies, Holiday Road now holds the honorable title as the Unofficial Theme of Your Chicago Blackhawks thanks to a hockey blog that gave their friend a hard time about his earworm. Adopted by a small group of Blackhawks fans as the unofficial 2013 playoff anthem, it eventually became the inside joke almost everybody was in on, confusing the few who weren't. The Lindsey Buckingham song played before each home game including and following game 7 against the Detroit Red Wings and cemented itself a strange but special place in the hearts of Blackhawks fans everywhere.
I think I'm going to convert to an all "Holiday Road" tweet format to see how long it takes to lose every follower I have.— VitaminF'nFlintheart (@HitlerPuncher) April 6, 2013

During the Hockeenight onslaught of terror on Wolter's brain, Wolter came up with the genuine idea of replacing the Cubs' victory song "Go Cubs Go" with Holiday Road. They liked his proposal but the crowd embraced it as the informal Blackhawks victory song instead, "since the Blackhawks were actually winning games."

KARACHI, Nov 12 Three people, including a 35-year-old worker of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement, were killed in different parts of the city on Wednesday, police and witnesses said.
They said tension and fear gripped parts of Orangi Town following the killing of the Muttahida worker, Mohammed Akram, son of Abdul Majeed, in an attack at around 4pm.
The witnesses said the victim was at his internet café, situated on the ground floor of his residence near Sadaf Chowk in Sector 10, when the unidentified occupants of a car opened fire on him.
They said the victim died instantly and two others - a cousin and an employee of the victim - received bullet wounds.
The dead and the injured were taken to the Abbasi Shaheed Hospital, where the Muttahida worker was pronounced dead on arrival.
Sources at the hospital's medico-legal section told Dawn that the victim had received three bullets in his upper torso. The injured, identified as Mohammed Imran and Sakhawat, were stated to be in a stable condition.
Imran, the victim's cousin, is reportedly a unit head of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement in Surjani Town.
The witnesses said the two occupants of the car got down and asked the victim if he was Akram. They said the attackers opened fire as the victim nodded in affirmation.
They said the enraged residents took to the streets and pelted vehicular traffic with stones.
The witnesses said unruly youths also burned old tyres at Faqir Colony.
They said later a heavy contingent of police and Rangers reached the affected area and controlled the situation.
The Mominabad police said that no case had been registered till late as the victim's family members were busy in the funeral.
Constable shot dead
A 30-year-old constable was shot dead by three dacoits, one of whom was caught and given a hiding by a mob in Kalri.
The police said three dacoits held constable Ahmed Khan, who was in a civil dress. He was killed in his struggle with the bandits near Niazi Chowk.
They said people caught one of the dacoits and beat him up severely.
The police said a police party reached the spot and rescued the overpowered suspect from the mob.
They said the suspect fell unconscious due to the severe bashing and was taken to the Civil Hospital in a critical condition.
The victim policeman was posted with the Shershah police.
