CBS TV analyst Shannon Sharpe criticized New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick after Belichick declined to be interviewed by Steve Tasker of CBS following the Patriots' 28-13 loss to Baltimore on Sunday. "There's something to be said about being gracious in defeat," Sharpe said, according to multiple reports. "We've seen the New England Patriots five times in the last 12 years be victorious. And we've seen the opposing coaches that lost come out and talk to our Steve Tasker. Coach [Bill] Cowher did it when [the Steelers] lost to them. We saw this last week [when the Patriots beat the Texans]. "Bill Belichick makes it real easy for you to root against the Patriots. You can't be a poor sport all the time. You're not gonna win all the time. And he does this every time he loses. It is unacceptable."

The seven 2008 Dan David Prize laureates, including Al Gore and Sir Tom Stoppard, were recognized for their impact on the world at a ceremony held May 19 at Tel Aviv University. Israeli President Shimon Peres gave the keynote address.
Laureates were selected based on their activities in the three time dimensions of past, present and future.
Al Gore: Our Present Responsibility to the Environment
Gore received the $1 million prize for his present work in Social Responsibility with Particular Emphasis on the Environment, due to his contribution to creating greater worldwide awareness of global climate change. Accepting the prize, Gore called on those concerned about the environment to demand that politicians to make a change to renewable sources of energy, such as solar power. What we need, Gore said, is sufficient political will. But as the people of Israel know, sufficient political will is a renewable resource.
Honoring the Creative Rendering of the Past
Sharing the $1 million prize in the field of Creative Rendering of the Past Literature, Theater, Film are filmmaker Atom Egoyan, author Amos Oz and playwright Stoppard.
Oz (Arad, Israel) was honored for his works emphasizing the individual and exploring conflicts between nations.
Stoppard (London) was recognized for his portrayal of the search for meaning while displaying dazzling theatricality and genius for laughter.
Egoyan (Toronto) was noted for his exploration of the human impact of historical events and the nature of truth and its representation through art.
Climate Change and Saving the Future
Three geoscientists were recognized with the $1 million Dan David Prize for their research affecting the future:

The other was a situation created by Superman's own action of leaving earth for 5 years and not even saying goodbye to the so called love of his life. The world didn't stop Supes. It moved on without you as did Lois. Get over it.
The events in this film take place over the course of maybe a week. Can a guy have maybe a week to get over it before people start bitching?
I liked that James Marsden didn't play the asshole boyfriend. He was a geniunely good guy who deserved the relationship. I think that's a very rare thing in films.
Problem with Superman Returns is that Superman is a wimp overall in that film. It became clear in the film that without his powers he is nothing. Instead he should also have that Supercharacter, being a great guy with extreme will power even without any of his superpowers.
A movie aiming low should not be praised for hitting that target.

The San Antonio Spurs had their work cut out for them from the start before taking on the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night. The Spurs are particularly thin these days, with forwards Kawhi Leonard and Stephen Jackson both nursing injuries. Given that they were missing some key players against one of the best teams in the Western Conference, you could argue that a 92-87 loss is a moral victory. Just don't say it to Gregg Popovich. "I thought for a portion of that game we were an embarrassment," Popovich said after the loss according to Spurs Nation. The Spurs went 3-for-8 from the floor and were outscored 29-14 in the second quarter. They also turned the ball over seven times during that stretch, which is likely what Popovich was embarrassed by. San Antonio had been leading by as much as 10 before that run, but L.A. took a five-point lead into halftime and held onto to it the remainder of the way. Pop hates losing almost as much as he hates doing interviews with sideline reporters during a game, so it's not surprising to see him heated after a loss that many saw coming. Excuses don't fly in San Antonio. Photo credit: Jayne Kamin-Oncea-US PRESSWIRE

County: Boy did not die from swine flu
By KRWG News
Las Cruces – The Dona Ana County Sheriff's Department has received confirmation from the University of New Mexico Office of the Medical Investigator that swine flu did not cause the death of a 6-year-old Las Cruces boy Tuesday.
Despite some initial media reports, investigators say the boy never exhibited flu-like symptoms.
Due to federal privacy laws regarding patient medical information, and out of respect for the grieving family, no further information will be released.

Graham Robertson will be travelling back to Uruguay in August to fit a bait setting device onto one of about 15 Uruguayan fishing vessels. The tests he and his team will be conducting are the final stage of a very long process. Graham hopes to be able to demonstrate two things; 1. That the device stops bi-catch of albatross and petrels from long line fishing, 2. That the use of the device does not interfere with the commercial success of the fishing operation of the boats it's fitted to.
Since joining us in Antarctica last November Graham has been learning Spanish (in Peru), meeting fishermen and working with one boat owner/captain who's happy to work with Graham (in Uruguay) to test the device, as well as pushing the team of engineers and designers (in Mooloolaba - Queensland) to make the final changes to the device to ensure that this last, and most important, phase of the project is a success.
These tests should be completed by October of this year and he's confident he will be able to demonstrate that the device stops the needless killing of albatross and petrels and does not interfere with the commercial success of fishing. He'll then have a real and practical solution to save albatross lives.
The next phase will be getting more boat owners to use the device (and to make sure they can be maintained and continue to be used) and then supplying (which is yet another challenge) those devices.
With a proven solution this whole project should take on a new life – as it will be far harder for governments, boat owners and fishermen to ignore. More on the progress of this project in the next Poles Apart.

Carson McCullers produced before her death in 1967 a small but impressive body of fiction: The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter, 1940; Reflections in a Golden Eye, 1941; The Member of the Wedding, 1946; The Ballad of the Sad Café, 1951; Clock Without Hands, 1961; and twelve short stories published between 1936 and 1967. Her career was marked by successes, both popular and critical, and by controversy. The controversial aspects of her work become apparent in even a cursory examination of the criticism concerned with it. Conflicting opinions regarding the interpretation of individual works, the value of her overall achievement, and her place in American literary history abound. Some commentators compare her favorably with Faulkner, others judge her a failure; some find in her work a stark realism, others a Gothic romanticism. This latter critical dichotomy has created an unresolved problem in the analysis of her fiction. The present article demonstrates through structural analysis the psychological and social realism of The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter, her most typical and successful novel.
The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter is the focus of the debate over the realistic versus the romantic, or Gothic, aspects of Carson McCullers' work. Most critics have interpreted the novel as an allegory, a Gothic romance, or a fable (or some combination of these types) and insisted on the absence of any social interest. Chester Eisinger's remarks are typical: "A peripheral matter in this novel [Heart] is the way in which Mrs. McCullers treats social problems." Ihab Hassan deems the novel a failure because its form does not connect social man and individual man. Yet one of the most influential studies of the genre, Leslie Fiedler's Love and Death in the American Novel characterizes Mrs. McCullers' first novel as "… the last of the 'proletarian novels,' a true Depression book."
These critical differences can only be resolved through a careful analysis of the novel's structure, though Heart certainly presents many structural difficulties. First, its third person omniscient point of view is complicated by its assimilation into the viewpoints of four major characters (Biff, Mick, Blount, and Copeland), who in turn become the central intelligences of individual chapters. The other chapters, dealing with Singer and Antonapoulos, remain very definitely third person. This arrangement raises a question: Who is the protagonist of the novel? No single character appears capable of claiming that distinction. Singer stands at the center of the grouping of characters, but he remains almost as enigmatic to the reader as to his fellow lonely hearts. Mick is the most fully developed individual, yet she had little insight into her own or others' problems. Biff has the clearest vision and the last word, but in his observer's role he functions only as a minor element of plot structure. The action of the novel, in fact, is not centered on any one individual; it involves the social group, both the central characters and the whole mill-city society.
The structure of the novel is tripartite. Part One introduces style, character, setting, plot, and theme through the depiction of the Singer-Antonapoulos relationship, its disintegration, and Singer's subsequent involvements with the other characters. Part One also establishes the fundamental tension between the personal and the social worlds, as the central human relationship is mirrored in the social lives of all the other characters. And finally Part One of Heart serves as an introduction to what Mrs. McCullers called "the general web of the book." Part Two contains the major plot development; it completes the web. Part Two comprises fifteen chapters: five centered around Mick, three around Copeland, two each around Blount and Biff, with three summary or "legendary" chapters. This part covers exactly one year from July, 1938 to July, 1939; during this interval the characters are seen to evolve through an elaborate though coherently structured series of events, which are carefully interconnected to form the plot. Here the author achieves a more complex picture of the mill-city and its inhabitants which stresses social problems and their foundation in the individual personality. The greater scope of the section allows Mrs. McCullers to consider those particular social ills which plague her characters: Blount provides a connection with economic exploitation, Copeland with racial prejudice, Mick with the alienation of youth. The threads of each character's development are woven into a tapestry depicting Southern society at the end of the Depression. Flashbacks are used to provide a sense of movement in time. These movements are almost always used to underline the character's connections with social difficulties, for example Jakes' background in the poverty of Gastonia, N.C., another mill-city. The central position of Singer never allows the personal sources of these problems to escape consideration.
Part Three demonstrates the reactions of the characters to the death of Singer and stresses through irony their inability to solve both personal and social problems. This part of the novel consists of four chapters, one each for Copeland, Blount, Mick, and Biff. The chapters also represent the four parts (Morning, Afternoon, Evening, Night) of one day, August 21, 1939. Part Two is patterned after the natural cycle of the year; in Part Three the smaller cycle of the day lends meaning to the action by emphasizing the end of summer, the decline of both men's fortunes and of the year. The microcosmic social world of the mill-city erupts in the unbridled hatred of a race riot, while the larger world, the macrocosm, teeters perilously on the brink of total war. In the conclusion of this section, humans plumb the nadir of their conditions. Mrs. McCullers had created a confused, brutal world, shown a momentary order in it, destroyed that order, yet in the very destruction, in the very moment of despair, shows us the foundation of a possible order in the tragic revelations of defeat. The four chapters are arranged to demonstrate this meaning; they move from the character with the least understanding and hope to the one with the most. Perhaps the personal and social disorder of the future can be avoided by an implementation of the knowledge produced by tragedy. The formal device which lends force to this apocalyptic vision is the reversal of the order of Chapters Two through Five of Part One: as the characters formed their connections with Singer, so are they disengaged.
The development is almost linear, with a few flashbacks used to fill in the historical bases of social problems and the corresponding connections of past with present in the lives of the characters. Although structurally simple, this method allows much complexity of development of themes and characters. The novel resembles classics of American realism like Winesburg, Ohio and The Grapes of Wrath in this basic structure.
The pattern of character relationships is much more complicated. The simple image of a circle or wheel (used in both the text of the novel and Mrs. Cullers' "Outline") seems to represent the relationship of the major characters to Singer. Shortly after Christmas they all visit him simultaneously, creating a scene which dramatizes the central pattern of the novel, a scene in which the characters move in a mime of their customary actions. Copeland stands in the doorway; Mick listens to music on the radio; Blount opens a bottle of beer; Biff smiles and observes. But there is no communication, and Singer is bewildered by their sudden silence. They regard each other suspiciously, exchange a few hostile questions, then generalize about the weather, and finally leave hurriedly. The few things they do say are directed at Singer rather than to each other. "Their thoughts seemed to converge in his as the spokes of a wheel lead to the center hub." But the mute realizes, at least unconsciously in a later dream, that the pattern resembles a pyramid:
Out of the blackness of sleep a dream formed. There were dull yellow lanterns lighting up a dark flight of stone steps. Antonapoulos kneeled at the top of these steps. He was naked and he fumbled with something that he held above his head and gazed at it as though in prayer. He himself knelt halfway down the steps. He was naked and cold and he could not take his eyes from Antonapoulos and the thing he held above him. Behind him on the ground he felt the one with the mustache and the girl and the black man and the last one. They knelt naked and he felt their eyes on him. And behind him there were uncounted crowds of kneeling people in the darkness. His own hands were huge windmills and he stared fascinated at the unknown thing that Antonapoulos held. The yellow lanterns swayed to and fro in the darkness and all else was motionless. Then suddenly there was a ferment. In the upheaval the steps collapsed and he felt himself falling downward. He awoke with a jerk. The early light whitened the window. He felt afraid.
Singer plays John the Baptist to Antonapoulos's Christ. Yet Antonapoulos looks upward also, at some unknown object which he holds above his head and regards with a prayerful attitude. This object is the cross which the Greek wears around his neck on a red ribbon. Later Singer is reminded of the dream when he sees the cross, the one thing that Antonapoulos treats with a veneration like that which he receives from Singer. The presence of the cross at the apex of this pyramid of stupid devotion indicates that religion has little relevance for modern society, a favorite theme in Proletarian fiction. The dream reveals the final emptiness inherent in the total situation, and the dream's collapse prefigures the destructive failure of everyone's dreams at the conclusion of the novel.
The most apt figure might be a three-dimensional rendering of the pyramidal image as a solar system in which there are a number of complementary orbits. Antonapoulos and his cross are at the exact center of the system. Singer is in orbit around him; the others revolve about Singer, and even they have their satellites in the minor characters who relate to them. The narrative relates the creation of this complex system and its disintegration. In a final sense the pattern of the action becomes cyclical: the characters move from disillusionment to hope to disillusionment, and, perhaps, to hope again. No matter what image is employed, it must be combined with the linear progression of time in the novel to demonstrate the connection of the personal and social worlds. In the timeless world of the heart the characters are involved in a complicated pattern; in the changing social world they are a part of inexorable historical movements. The whole novel exists as a complex figure of their combination.
Style functions organically with structure. A "legendary" style adds a timeless quality to Chapter One, helping to establish the archetypal nature of the events narrated. This style reoccurs in each of the key chapters concerned with Singer and Antonapoulos. The other chapters (2-5 of Part One; 1-6, 8-14 of Part Two; 1-4 of Part Three) employ styles related to the central personality of the chapter. Chapter Two of Part One for example, is centered about Biff Brannon, although other characters are introduced in it. The narration changes as the section opens; the "legendary" style ends, and a flat, objective, factual style begins, a style analogous to the character of Biff Brannon, the observer. Mrs. McCullers planned a different style for each of the main characters.
There are five different styles of writing—one for each of the main characters who is treated subjectively and an objective, legendary style for the mute. The object of each of these methods of writing is to come as close as possible to the inner psychic rhythms of the character from whose point of view it is written.
The legendary style of Chapter One, which has much of the "once-upon-a-time" quality of fable or romance, depicts human isolation and its causes on a generic level. Though succeeding chapters supply realistic details and anchor the story in an actual place and time, this opening section creates an aura of the timeless world of the imagination, the soul, the interior self. The world of the mutes remains separate from the town which surrounds them, for it is in actuality the changeless realm of the human heart. In telling the story of Singer and Antonapoulos, Mrs. McCullers essentially concerns herself with love, the universal search of the human heart for fulfillment. But soon a social background emerges from the shadows of the unconscious mind. At this point the reader becomes aware of the city, the social milieu in which Singer's search must be conducted.
The town was in the middle of the deep South. The summers were long and the months of winter cold were very few. Nearly always the sky was a glassy, brilliant azure and the sun burned down riotously bright. Then the light, chill rains of November would come, and perhaps later there would be frost and some short months of cold. The winters were changeable, but the summers always were burning hot. The town was a fairly large one. On the main street there were several blocks of two and three-story shops and business offices. But the largest buildings in the town were factories, which employed a large percentage of the population. These cotton mills were big and flourishing and most of the workers in the town were very poor. Often in the faces along the streets there was the desperate look of hunger and of loneliness.
In her outline of the novel, Mrs. McCullers locates the city on the ChattahoocheeRiver in western Georgia, in effect identifying it as her home town, Columbus. The city is a symbolic type of the culture produced by industrialization—a world of decay, deprivation, and loneliness. Blount's place of employment, the Sunny Dixie Show (the irony of the name is obvious), becomes the major example of setting used symbolically. A tawdry place of entertainment and escape appropriate to this world, the show is a combination of an urban wasteland and a mechanical nightmare.
The motionless wooden horses were fantastic in the later afternoon sun. They pranced up statically, pierced by their dull gilt bars. The horse nearest Jake had a splintery wooden crack in its dingy rump and the eyes walled blind and frantic, shreds of paint peeled from the sockets. The motionless merry-go-round seemed to Jake like something in a liquor dream.
The flying-jinny, or merry-go-round, symbolizes the meaningless and oppressive round of mechanical activities associated with modern urban civilization.
The city in the novel is not specifically identified; it might be any Southern mill-city and becomes representative of the industrialized and urbanized South, or America, or the whole modern world. It is still a realistic picture of a specific place, however, and a knowledge of the South and its history adds to the appreciation of the narrative. The description of the city emphasizes its social problems, and the choice of characters allows the narrative to develop them at some length. Jake Blount, for example, observes the results of economic exploitation in the section of mill houses.
On either side there were rows of dilapidated two room houses. In the cramped back yards were rotted privies and lines of torn, smoky rags hung out to dry. For two miles there was not one sight of comfort or space or cleanliness. Even the earth itself seemed filthy and abandoned. Now and then there were signs that a vegetable row had been attempted but only a few withered collards had survived. And a few fruitless, smutty fig tress. Little younguns swarmed in this filth, the smaller of them stark naked. The sight of this poverty was so cruel and hopeless that Jake snarled and clenched his fists.
Here is the ruined garden of the new industrial world, an environment in which man finds the expression of his essential human nature extremely difficult. Cut off from a sense of community, each individual enters a dangerous inner world of dreams where he is existentially alone.
Each character isolates himself in this way; the repetition of the pattern emphasizes its generic nature. Singer presents the pattern because his communication difficulties constitute the most obvious symbols of modern alienation. The other major characters serve to connect the pattern to the society of the mill-city and to the larger world outside.
Even the minor characters demonstrate the same purpose. Harry Minowitz, for example, represents the novel's pervasive social concerns. Harry's Jewish background amplifies both the religious and social themes of the novel. His presence also raises the issue of Fascism, bringing the macrocosm of the world situation of 1939 into focus with the microcosm of the mill-city. Mrs. McCullers once commented that Heart is "an ironic parable of fascism," a statement which has caused critics much puzzlement. The novelist undoubtedly uses both terms in a very broad sense, meaning by the second any social system which bases its order on hatred, aggression, and human exploitation. These are the bases of the social structure in Nazi Germany and in the mill-city, and thus the "parable" is ironic. Facism in this sense can be present in any social organization because its seeds—hate, greed, and fear—are constants of the human situation. Harry himself demonstrates these characteristics. His adolescent fear of isolation made him sympathetic with Fascism.
'I used to be a Fascist. I used to think I was. It was this way. You know all the pictures of the people our age in Europe marching and singing songs and keeping step together. I used to think that was wonderful. All of them pledged to each other and with one leader. All of them with the same ideals and marching in step together.'
Harry's reaction to Fascist anti-semitism creates a personal chaos. His very hatred of Hitler causes him to desire to live within a militaristic society which would fight Nazism. His own physical desires lead him into the sexual exploitation of the younger Mick. Of course, all of the characters and events of the novel are part of this presentation of man's world, but Harry provides the key to the equating of mill-city with a world on the eve of war. In Harry's Jewishness Mrs. McCullers universalizes her picture of human failure through the interpenetration of all these worlds.
Careful analysis of its structure demonstrates how all elements of the novel—character, plot, style, setting, and symbol—are integrated in the larger purpose of presenting the failure of communication, the isolation, and the violence prevalent in modern society. The novel's characters demonstrate the roots of these general conditions in the nature of the individual personality. Each person is freakishly incomplete, selfish, uncommunicative (Mrs. McCullers' originaltitle, "The Mute", might have been intended as a plural form), immature, sexually frustrated, and essentially alienated from their society. The symbolization of these difficulties on a personal level often approaches the Gothic—for example, the freak as Everyman. However, a concurrent emphasis is placed on the accurate social depiction of these characters. No communication can exist when each person creates only a self-centered and self-deluded view of the world around him. But a society composed of such individual parts will drive man further into himself. Bound in the prison of his isolation and tortured by the pains and shocks of life, man attempts to escape from this condition into an imagined world of perfect fulfillment. This search for personal realization must necessarily be social because he must communicate with and love other human beings. Man's social world is imperfect because of personal failings, and his personal existence is painful because of the tension between self and an imperfect society.
In Carson McCullers' The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter, this paradoxical condition is explored through the symbols provided by a particular society—a small mill-city in the American South immediately before World War II. A knowledge of its social setting is helpful in understanding the novel's psychology, but the book also explains particular historical situations and events as manifestations of universal human conditions. The novel's analogues in Southern fiction are readily apparent: the alienated characters of Wolfe, the disintegrating families of Faulkner, the corrupt social and political order of Warren. The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter stands as an impressive achievement, particularly for a young writer. It provides a critical perspective for viewing Mrs. McCullers' other works, and perhaps for the whole expanse of modern Southern fiction.

The Philadelphia/Baltimore Stars were a professional American football team which played in the United States Football League in the mid-1980s. They were owned by real-estate magnate Myles Tanenbaum. They were the league's dominant team, playing in all three championship games and winning two of them.
1983 Season[edit]
The Stars began in Philadelphia in the 1983 season. They played their home games at Veterans Stadium (the "Vet"), compiled the league's best regular season record (15-3), and made it to the 1983 USFL championship game before losing. The 1983 squad's "Doghouse Defense" allowed only 204 points in an 18 game season—the least in the history of the league. They were led by fourth-year QB Chuck Fusina (1978 Heisman Trophy runner-up), fifth-year WR Scott Fitzkee, rookie HB Kelvin Bryant of UNC, rookie OT Irv Eatman of UCLA, Rookie LB Sam Mills, and second-year S Scott Woerner. The team also featured TSN all-star rookie punter Sean Landeta.
The Stars were able to defeat the preseason favorites to win the 1983 title—George Allen's Chicago Blitz—by withstanding seven turnovers and coming back from 21 down in the fourth quarter to win 44-38 in overtime. In the league title game, the Stars were edged out by Jim Stanley's Michigan Panthers, 24-22. Just as they had against the Blitz, the Stars opened the game sluggishly, but finished with a flourish, after allowing the Panthers to carry a 17-3 lead into the fourth quarter.
The Stars' solid season led some to suggest that they could have been a fairly competitive NFL team, along with Michigan and Chicago. The fact this comparison was even being made gave the USFL much-needed credibility.
1984 Season[edit]
They remained in Philadelphia for the 1984 season, but were forced to relocate postseason home games to Franklin Field due to a conflict with the Philadelphia Phillies. The Stars roared through the regular season with the league best (16-2) record, and routed George Allen's Arizona Wranglers, 23-3 for the league title. The Stars played Tampa Bay at Wembley Stadium in an exhibition game on July 21, 1984.
1985 Season[edit]
The league's owners, led by Donald Trump (New Jersey Generals), voted to move play to the fall after the 1985 season. Although the Stars had a strong following, Tanenbaum knew he couldn't hope to compete with the Philadelphia Eagles and moved the team to Baltimore. Unfortunately, he was unable to get a lease for Baltimore's Memorial Stadium. As a condition of the settlement between the city and the NFL's Colts after the Colts moved to Indianapolis, no pro football team could play at Memorial Stadium until 1986 (even without this stipulation, baseball's Baltimore Orioles were using Memorial Stadium during the spring). With no other stadium in the immediate Baltimore area suitable even for temporary use, Tanenbaum was forced to play at the University of Maryland's Byrd Stadium in College Park, 40 miles south of Baltimore and in fact closer to Washington (coincidentally, the Washington USFL franchise, the Federals, moved to Florida the same season). Meanwhile, the team continued to practice in Philadelphia, and also kept most of their operations there—effectively forcing the Stars to play 18 road games in the USFL's last spring season.
At least in part due to all the moving, the Stars struggled in 1985, needing to win nine of their last 13 games just to get a wild-card berth. Even if they'd notched a better record, they would have lost home-field advantage for the playoffs due to their poor attendance. Baltimoreans were not willing to make the 44-minute drive down Interstate 95 to see "their" team play, while fans on the Maryland side of the Washington area were not willing to support a lame-duck team. ABC, embarrassed at the dreadful gates from Baltimore and Denver, told Usher it did not want to air playoff games in near-empty stadiums. Since ABC had disproportionate influence on league affairs due to the structure of its contract with the USFL, Usher had little choice but to agree. However, the Stars managed to upend the favored Generals and Stallions in successive weeks to reach the title game. Once there the Stars again won the USFL title beating the Bobby Hebert-led Oakland Invaders.
As it turned out, this was the last USFL game ever played. On July 29, 1986, a federal grand jury found in favor of the USFL in its antitrust suit against the NFL. However, it only awarded the USFL a dollar in damages (tripled to $3 under antitrust law). The league's abandonment of Philadelphia, the nation's fourth-largest market, was one factor in the adverse jury award. The league suspended operations a day later, never to return.
The Stars are widely acknowledged to have been the best team to see the field in USFL history.
The Stars won 41 of 54 regular-season games and were 7-1 in the postseason. For the team's entire run, they were coached by Jim Mora (Sr), who later became a head coach in the NFL for the New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts. Mora was actually the Stars' second choice; Tannenbaum originally hired Pittsburgh Steelers defensive coordinator George Perles, but Perles opted instead to take the open job at his alma mater, Michigan State.
Carl Peterson, who later became the president/general manager/chief executive officer of the Kansas City Chiefs, served as the team's General Manager for all three seasons.
Sean Landeta and Sam Mills both also had successful careers in the NFL. Landeta was one of the top punters in the NFL for two decades, and was the last former USFL player still active in the NFL at the time of his retirement in 2006. Mills had a sterling career with the Saints (alongside Mora) and the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers retired Mills' No. 51 jersey after his death from cancer in 2005.
Landeta and Bart Oates were also teammates with the New York Giants. Oates was drafted by the Giants in 1985. Both Oates and Landeta went on to win a combined five Super Bowl rings throughout their NFL careers. Both won two rings apiece with the Giants in 1986 and 1990, while Oates earned an additional ring with the San Francisco 49ers in 1994. Oates was selected to five Pro Bowls during his career and to the UPI All-NFC team three times. He was extremely durable, starting 125 consecutive games during his Giants career.

U.K. gaming groups have placed a bet on punters Down Under.
Britain's largest bookmaker, William Hill, and smaller peer GVC Holdings will soon land on Australian shores after striking a deal to acquire Sportingbet's Australian operations in a board- recommended deal worth 485 British pounds (US$788 million).
The deal, which includes an option over Sportingbet's Spanish operations, gives William Hill an initial presence in the Australian betting market, where the online segment is well-developed.
The Genting brand, one of the best known in Asia's gaming industry, could soon grace the boards of Australia's main stock exchange.
Lim Keong Yew and Benjamin Lim Keong Hoe – nephews of Genting Bhd Chief Executive K.T.Lim – are preparing to take control of ASX-listed Two Way Ltd., and a name change may be in the offing that reflects the company's new direction.
The idea is to take advantage of rising spend at casinos and online gambling in Southeast Asia, so it makes sense for them to draw on Genting's gaming expertise and high-level business contacts throughout the region.
When the chips are down, will Crown be able to increase its stake in Echo Entertainment Group to its self-imposed 25% cap without a capital raising and before a full bid?
Nomura has examined Crown's most recent credit reviews from rating agencies and concludes it should be able to fund an increase through debt without an adverse impact on its ratings.
Analyst Nick Berry says in a note that Fitch sees diversification of Crown's earnings as "generally credit-positive", Moody's total debt to earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amoritzation, or EBITDA, tolerance for maintaining its rating is between 2.5 and 3 times and Standard & Poor's concludes that Crown could debt fund an increase to 19.9% of Echo without triggering a negative review.
Genting Hong Kong has applied to Australian regulators to be allowed to increase its stake in Echo Entertainment Group, a person familiar with the matter said Tuesday.
The person said that Genting had applied to casino regulators in New South Wales and Queensland states to increase its stake above the company's 10% limit for a shareholder.
A spokesperson for the New South Wales' Independent Liquor & Gaming Authority and Queensland's Liquor & Gaming Commission declined to comment.
Australia's Tatts Group is unlikely to capture the luck of the Irish, says Bank of America Merrill Lynch's Mark Bryan.
Mr. Bryan said that although Tatts has expressed interest in Ireland's National Lottery licence, which is up for renewal in June 2013 for a tenure of 20 years, the company's chances are "very remote."
"With potential for the Irish exit of Euro we see too much incumbent risk for the buyer, as a Euro exit is likely to see significant currency deflation which could present the risks of FX translation and potential write-downs," he said in a note to clients.
Australian casino company Crown said Friday it holds a 10% interest in rival casino company Echo Entertainment Group, having lifted its stake from 4.9%.
Crown said it would pay about 256.6 million Australian dollars (US$275.5 million), or A$3.73/share to increase its stake following the delivery of a derivative for 68.8 million Echo shares. Deutsche Bank is facilitating the transaction.

New research has found a significant association between workplace exposure to the chemical Bisphenol A, widely used in coatings, and decreased sperm count and function—the first research to make that connection in humans.
A study of Chinese factory workers found that BPA was "statistically significantly associated with" decreased sperm count, vitality, motility and concentration.
"These results provide the first epidemiologic evidence of an adverse effect of BPA on semen quality," study author Dr. De-Kun Li, MD, PhD, reports in an article published online Thursday (Oct. 28) in the journal Fertility and Sterility.
Increased Risk
"Compared with men who did not have detectable urine BPA levels, those with detectable urine BPA had more than three times the risk of lowered sperm concentration and lower sperm vitality, more than four times the risk of lower sperm count, and more than twice the risk of lower sperm motility," concluded Li, a scientist at the Kaiser Permanente Division of Research in Oakland, CA.
Furthermore, although the study focused on high-level workplace exposures, "similar dose-response associations were observed among men with environmental BPA exposure at levels comparable with those in the U.S population," Li found.
The study, funded by the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health, did not determine whether the relatively low sperm counts and other signs of poor semen quality translated to reduced fertility.
Sexual Dysfunction
In a separate study earlier this year, Li also found that increasing levels of BPA in urine were associated with "worsening male sexual functioning"—specifically, decreased sexual desire, more difficulty having an erection, lower ejaculation strength, and lower level of overall satisfaction with sex life.
Furthermore, that five-year study of 427 factory workers found that the results remained consistent even among men with no occupational exposure "and at levels lower than the urine BPA in average Americans," Li reported.
BPA Applications
BPA is a key component in the epoxy resins that are used to make coatings of every type, from protective and marine coatings for ship hulls, tank linings and oil platforms; to powder coatings for automotive parts, metal roofing and gardening tools; to anti-slip and industrial floor coatings; to—most controversial—linings of food cans.
BPA is also a key component in the production of polycarbonate plastic, which is used to make a huge variety of products, from baby bottles to bullet-resistant shielding, bicycle helmets, kidney dialysis machines, incubators, face shields and safety glasses, and adhesives for home and construction use.
Global Debate
The safety of BPA has been the subject of growing recent global debate. The government of Canada recently added the chemical to its Schedule 1 list of Toxic Substances under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, over the consternation of the chemical industry, which said the risk of BPA had been exaggerated.
The European Food Safety Authority announced Sept. 30 that it would not lower the official limit on accepted exposure to Bisphenol A, despite requests by some European countries to do so. France, German, Denmark and Sweden all have taken steps to rein in BPA exposure.
The U.S. Food & Drug Administration has declined to regulate BPA but recently acknowledged that the chemical raises health concerns.
The World Health Organization and U.N. Food & Agriculture Organization have scheduled a meeting Monday (Nov. 1) in Ottawa to discuss BPA safety.
Comment from Jose Joven, (11/1/2010, 7:03 AM)
Nothing new here. The controversy concerning BPA has been going on for decades. Many scoffed at the idea. Read "Our Stolen Future" or go to http://www.ourstolenfuture.org/ for more information.

ATLANTA — Georgia Insurance Commissioner Ralph Hudgens has confirmed that 28,467 households in the state could be affected by an online security breach involving Nationwide Insurance Co.
Hudgens said the company notified him that a portion of its computer network was accessed illegally. The hackers gained unauthorized access to personal information of policyholders and applicants for policies.
Nationwide has opened a toll-free hotline to field questions from anyone who might have been affected. The number is 1-800-760-1125.
Hudgens said the company also has committed to provide his office with evidence of written notice to everyone who could have been affected and to provide those people with free credit monitoring and identify theft protection from Equifax for at least one year.
The commissioner's office also has a consumer hotline at 1-800-656-2298.

49ers Practice Pool ReportBy Matt Maiocco NEW ORLEANS -- The lights of the Super Bowl appeared a little brighter for San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh, as the team went through 15 minutes of stretching and playing catch at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. The 49ers held their final get-together, a light workout on the eve of Super Bowl XLVII against the Baltimore Ravens, in front of 11 bus loads of family and friends. As the coaches and players walked onto the playing field, one person in the crowd prompted the group to perform the 49ers' traditional victory cheer. The man shouted, "Who's got it better than us?" And hundreds of 49ers supporters replied in unison, "Nobody!" That brought a smile to Harbaugh's face and he applauded the fans' efforts. Afterward, the large contingent was invited onto the field to pose for pictures and get autographs. The brief walk-through practice had a football purpose, too. "We wanted to come over," Harbaugh said. "And the football part...

certification logos on a resume? It's always good to set your resume off from all the others in the stack, but how are these certification logos viewed by a prospective employer? By itself, the MCP logo doesn't really mean much (I've never seen one used on a resume myself), but the MCSA might be worth something to prospective employers. Although logos and icons may add some "eye appeal" to a resume, what's in the resume (and how accurate and cogent it is to an employer's needs) counts a lot more.
My advice: put the emphasis on your skills, knowledge and abilities. Use logos only sparingly (most people simply provide a list of certifications near the end of their resumes, near where they list degrees, memberships in professional societies and so forth).
HTH. For more good advice on the subject, check out Paula Moreira and Robyn Thorpe's excellent book "ACE the IT Resume" (ISBN: 0072194030). For $15 (list price) it's chock full of good advice and examples you can use to build a stunning and compelling resume.
Good luck!

A recent article in The Wall Street Journal by Google Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt, "The Dark Side of the Digital Revolution," makes for very scary reading.

Friday, November 12, 2010
SSPC: The Society for Protective Coatings has revised its Disciplinary Action Criteria (DAC) to establish sanctions for SSPC-certified contractors who have a workplace fatality.
SSPC added the policy Sept. 20 "to clarify what happens and what is required when a fatality occurs," according to the association's website.
The new policy requires immediate written notification of every workplace death and imposes suspensions for work-related deaths caused by negligence or disregard for safety.
The new policy applies to all SSPC QP1, QP2, QP3, QP6, QP8, QP9 and QS1-certified contractors.
'Critical Faults'
The policy defines the process for disciplining contractors for "critical faults" incurred under the SSPC Contractor Certification Program. This procedure will be used by SSPC when a critical fault is suspected and by contractors when responding to or appealing SSPC disciplinary actions.
Critical faults are contractor actions that violate the requirements of the DAC. They are classified as serious, very serious, severe, and very severe.
Notification Requirement
The new policy requires SSPC-certified contractors to notify the SSPC Certification Manager or Program Administrator in writing of "each and every instance of a fatal incident in connection with one of its painting projects."
Reportable incidents include the death of an employee or worker under the contractor's supervision; a bystander; or a member of another trade or representative of another organization at the job site.
Exemptions may be requested for acts of terrorism, incidents involving third parties not under the contractor's control, and several other contingencies. Failure to provide written notification will result in a Warning to the contractor after five calendar days, Probation after 14 calendar days, and an automatic one-year Suspension after 30 calendar days. These sanctions are independent of others assessed in the process, the policy says.
An independent board of three PCCP-certified contractors will determine whether the fatality was caused by simple or gross negligence; deviation from an equipment manufacturer's operating procedures; or a violation of federal, state or local safety regulations.
Watch List and Corrective Action
Upon notification of the incident, SSPC will place the certified contractor on the SSPC DAC Watch List for a minimum period of one year.
The contractor has 60 calendar days from the date of the death to submit a Corrective Action Plan (CAP) to SSPC. The plan must fully describe the incident, the events that led to it, and any contributing factors. If the contractor contends that the death was not caused by gross negligence or deliberate disregard for safety, he or she must explain the reason and provide supporting evidence.
The contractor must also agree to obtain an independent review of the CAP by a certified safety professional (CSP) experienced in industrial painting operations and include that review in its submission.
The contractor must agree to revise any Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) policies, procedures, and work practices as recommended by the CSP and include these changes in the CAP.
Multiple Deaths
If the contractor or company has a second reportable death with a painting project within five years, SSPC will suspend the contractor's certification for one year.
A third death within 10 years of the first one will result in a two-year revocation of the contractor's certification.Multiple fatalities stemming from one incident will be considered one fatality for disciplinary purposes, the policy states.
Contractors may appeal any disciplinary action by providing documented proof by a coroner, law enforcement agency, Occupational Safety and Health Administration representative or other independent authority that the death was not the result of a work-related incident. The new DAC document supercedes the first policy issued in January 1998 and is available at www.sspc.org.
