Town in shock after boy's playground stabbing
(CNN) - A family is grieving and a Michigan community is in shock Wednesday night after a 9-year-old boy was stabbed to death at a playground in his neighborhood this week.
The shock felt in Kentwood, just outside of Grand Rapids, is as much over the sudden and senseless loss of Michael Conner Verkerke as it is over the circumstances of his death: The person accused of stabbing him was a 12-year-old he had just met at the playground.
Conner was playing with three other children Monday "when one of the children, for an unknown reason, pulled out a knife and repeatedly stabbed one of the other children," a Kentwood Police Department statement said.
Police say the attacker is 12-year-old Jamarion Lawhorn. A motive, if there is one, is unknown at this point, as the boys were not acquainted, according to Kent County Prosecutor Chris Becker.
Lawhorn was charged Tuesday with murder. Though he'll be tried in a juvenile court, it will be as an adult, according to Becker, who added that his office has not yet decided whether the murder charges will be first or second degree.
Charles Boekeloo, Lawhorn's court-appointed attorney, said he met his client for the first time at his arraignment Tuesday but had no further comment. Boekeloo entered a not guilty plea on the youth's behalf.
Police said that after he was stabbed, Conner managed to run back home before he collapsed on the porch. An ambulance rushed him to a hospital, where he died Monday night.
Lawhorn, meanwhile, "left the playground then went to a nearby residence where he asked to use the phone," Kentwood Chief of Police Thomas Hillen said.
"I thought he was calling for his parents to come pick him up," homeowner Glen Stacy told CNN. He wasn't. "He called 911," he said.
Stacy described Lawhorn as "calm and collected" throughout, and that he told the 911 dispatcher, ""Hi, I just stabbed someone, please pick me up and come kill me, I want to end my life."
The boy then calmly handed back the phone with the operator still on the line, according to Stacy, and they waited for police to arrive. "At no point did I feel threatened," he said.
Stacy said that when the first officers arrived on the scene, they ran toward the playground, which was in the opposition direction. That prompted Lawhorn to raise his voice for the first time, according to Stacy.
"Hey! I'm over here!" Stacy said he shouted. "Let's do this. I'm ready," he said as he walked toward them with his hands on his head, Stacy said.

WVU Alaska Trip
The No. 2-ranked West Virginia University team concluded its undefeated (9-0, 4-0 GARC) fall season with a historical trip to the University of Alaska-Fairbanks last weekend. The two squads are the winningest in NCAA history, as they account for a combined 24 NCAA titles; the Mountaineers own a nation-best 14 championships.
The Mountaineers scored two victories over the Nanooks, winning 4719-4670 and 4716-4651.
While the weekend was an official business trip for WVU, the team also was able to squeeze in some fun moments, too. Take a look at these pictures, submitted by senior Petra Zublasing, and check back in January when the team continues its march toward its 15th national championship.

What you need to know: It's possible for Georgia to lose the
No. 1 pick in the NFL Draft, QB Matthew Stafford, and
first-round pick RB Knowshon Moreno and be even better
offensively. Why? How? The offensive line. While there are
several injury issues from the knee of superstar tackle Trinton
Sturdivant to various knee, hip, and shoulder problems at other
spots, the line is deep, experienced, loaded, and stunningly
young. It might be the best line in the country, even if the
starting five might change on a weekly basis like it did
throughout the first half of last year. The running backs are
extremely deep, very fast, and very good with several excellent
options to play around with. Joe Cox won't be Stafford, but he's
a long-time veteran who should be serviceable and should keep
the chains moving thanks to a line that'll give him ten days to
throw. A.J. Green is one of the nation's best receivers, but he
needs a No. 2 target to help take the heat off.
Passing: Joe Cox
11-15, 151 yds, 2 TD, 0 INT
Rushing: Caleb King
61 carries, 247 yds, 1 TD
Receiving: A.J. Green
56 catches, 963 yds, 8 TD
Star of the offense:
Sophomore WR A.J. Green
Player who has to step up and become a star: Senior QB
Joe Cox
Unsung star on the rise:
Sophomore RB Richard Samuel
Best pro prospect: Green
Top three all-star candidates: 1) Green, 2) OT Trinton
OT/OG Clint Boling
Strength of the offense: Offensive line, Running Back
Weakness of the offense:
Quarterback, No. 2 Wide Receiver
Projected Starter:
Senior Joe Cox
has been waiting his turn ever since Matthew Stafford
arrived on campus. Everyone knew Stafford was eventually going
to be an NFL first rounder, and even the No. 1 pick overall, but
Cox has still seen enough work here and there to complete
33-of-58 passes for 432 yards and five touchdowns with an
interception. It's been a while, but he had a big moment against
Colorado in 2005 completing 10-of-13 passes for 154 yards and
two touchdowns in a last second win over Colorado. He's not big
at 6-1 and 198 pounds and he doesn't have the biggest arm
(especially compared to Stafford), but he's a winner. He hasn't
lost a game as a starter since middle school, going 31-0 in high
school, and he'll be a great (cliché warning) game manager.
He'll keep the offense moving and he won't make a slew of
Projected Top Reserves: Sophomore Logan
Gray needs to step on and rock in a real hurry or he'll
be relegated to the third team, or worse, in a big hurry. Gray
was a top recruit with a live arm and the type of mobility the
program hasn't had since D.J. Shockley was under center.
However, the 6-2-, 192-pounder has been overshadowed this
offseason and will have to fight to be the No. 2 option. At the
moment, he's not really being considered for the starting job.
True freshman
Aaron Murray could end up being the starter
sooner than later. While he's only 6-1 and 205 pounds, the star
recruit from Tampa has a howitzer for a right arm, and while he
doesn't have Matthew Stafford's gone, it's not all that far off.
He threw 33 touchdowns and four interceptions and ran for 257
yards and two scores last year before breaking his leg, but he
came back to lead his team to the Florida state title. He looked
the part this spring at times, and there could be a groundswell of support to make him
the main man to lead the program early on.Along with
Murray, Zach Mettenberger is a true freshman
who came to school early to get some reps in this spring. The
biggest passing option, he's 6-5 and 234 pounds with next-level
talent. He wasn't Murray this spring, but he was just good
enough to be still in the mix come fall. Considering Joe Cox is
almost certainly going to be the starter, Mettenberger will
likely redshirt and be more of a challenger for the starting job
next year.
Watch Out For ... someone to transfer early on. If
Cox really does win the starting job and keeps it all season
long there's going to be a logjam of players who could start for
most other programs. Gray, Murray and Mettenberger are all elite
talents and one, possibly two, aren't going to be all that happy
with the future possibilities.
Strength: Talent. Is it possible to lose the No. 1 pick
in the draft and be better overall at the position? That's a
stretch, but the Bulldogs are loaded with fantastic prospects
and there will be some good options to choose from. It'll be a
better fall camp than you might think.
Weakness: The Detroit Lions. The offense will be just
fine, Cox will get the job done, but Stafford was a special
passer who was just starting to come into his own as a college
quarterback. There are over 40 million guaranteed reasons why he
made the right decision to leave early, but there's a void in
experience, even though Cox has seen time.
Georgia was No. 1 in the SEC in passing
and 14th in the nation in passing efficiency with Matthew
Stafford at the helm. The attack won't be that explosive again
this season, but it'll be solid with veteran backup Joe Cox
ready to step in and do the job. But here's the problem; if he
struggles even a wee bit, there will be a major controversy with
three fantastic young prospects waiting in the wings. The
coaching staff had no problems going with Stafford as a true
freshman, and it might not have an issue turning to Aaron Murray
or Zach Mettenberger
if either one is better this summer.
Running Backs
Projected Starters:
There were some rumblings from
some last year that Caleb King was the team's
most talented running back. While that was wrong, with Knowshon
Moreno (who's now a Denver Bronco) the star who cut back and
quicked his way to 1,400 yards and 16 touchdowns. Yes, King has
the talent, but he'll have to prove he can be the warrior that
Moreno was even after a mediocre spring. At 5-11, and 210 pounds, the superstar recruit of
three years ago has power to go along with a great burst and a
nose for the goal line, at least in high school. Even though he
broke his leg, he was still considered one of the nation's top
prep backs, even more so than Moreno. Now he's fully healthy and
ready to roll after finishing second on the team with 247 yards
and a score behind Moreno.
Losing a fullback as good as Brannan Southerland would be
devastating if Shaun Chapas wasn't so good as a
replacement. Southerland got hurt early last year and Chapas
stepped in and ran for 25 yards, but he was more vital as a
blocker and a receiver catching nine passes for 120 yards and a
score. At 6-2 and 238 pounds, the junior has good size to go
along with his nice hands and quickness.
Projected Top Reserves: Sophomore Richard
Samuel saw limited action but finished third on the
team with 133 yards and a score. At 6-2 and 216 pounds he's a
tall, tough runner who was a tremendous recruit after rushing
for 1,429 yards and 24 scores as a high school senior. Now he
has to stay healthy after missing the bowl game with injured
ligaments in his wrist, but he's fine. Fast, he averaged 21.1
yards per kickoff return last season.Fully healthy after
having problems with his knee, Dontavius Jackson
appears to be ready for a breakout year. Health will be
an ongoing issue, he suffered a broken wrist two years ago, but
the 5-7, 178-pound redshirt freshman is fine for now. Extremely
quick and very tough for his size, he can be used in a variety
of ways as a third down specialist and a change-of-pace back.
He's not Herschel Walker, who he's been compared to as far as
being a hot recruit for the Bulldog backfield, but true freshman
Washaun Ealey is a great get for the Georgia
coaching staff. The 5-11, 205-pound flash of lightning ran for
133 career touchdowns, setting the Georgia state record by a
huge margin, with 49 scores last year. Get ready for the buzz
once he gets to show what he can do.
6-2, 224-pound junior Fred Munzenmaier is a
veteran blocker who has spent most of his time on special teams.
He ran for a one-yard score against LSU on his only carry of the
season, but he can step in for Shaun Chapas at fullback and be
more than fine.
Watch Out For ... a whale of a battle for playing
time. King is a big-time talent who needs to have the ball in
his hands in a full-time role, but Thomas, Jackson, and
eventually Ealey, are too good to not get the ball.
Strength: Major league talent. It's not a stretch to
call this the most talented young backfield in college football.
The debate would be over if Knowshon Moreno was back, but the
backfield is loaded as is.
Weakness: Proven production. Oh sure, there are
tremendous talents to get excited about and players who'd make
many programs drool, but no one has done much on the field yet.
Moreno really was that good and even with all the good players
waiting to shine, the 1,400 yards, 5.6-yard average, 16
touchdowns, and 33 catches for 392 yards and two scores will be
The running game will be relied on more now
that Matthew Stafford is gone, and Georgia has more than enough
backs to handle the work. If Caleb King isn't getting the job
done, then Richard Samuel will step in. If Samuel is having
problems, then Carlton Thomas, Dontavius Thomas, or Washaun
Ealey will step in. The backfield is loaded and will blow up
behind the great Bulldog O line.
Projected Starters:
When it came to freshman wide
receivers, the talk of the SEC last year was Alabama's Julio
Jones. But Georgia's A.J. Green was better with
56 catches for 963 yards and eight scores, averaging 17.2 yards
per catch (while Jones, who didn't have Matthew Stafford
throwing to him, caught 58 passes for 924 yards and four
scores). The 6-4, 207-pound sophomore was consistent and
explosive highlighted by an eight-catch, 159-yard, one touchdown
day against Arizona State. Big and fast with great hands, he has
the full complement of skills and will be used even more in a
variety of ways. He ran four times for 61 yards last season and
will see the ball on end arounds and on running plays, to go
along with his duties as the No. 1 target.6-1, 207-pound senior Michael Moore
was a big-time, can't-miss prospect when he came to Athens
a few years ago but made just five career
catches and three for 28 yards and a touchdown before last year.
While he was fine throughout the season as a No. 3 target, he came up
with the biggest game of his career with six catches for 97 yards and a
score against Michigan State in the Capital One Bowl. He finished fourth
on the team with 29 catches for 451 yards and two scores, averaging 15.6
yards per catch, and he'll be used in a variety of ways with so many
problems at split end.
Taking over for Tripp Chandler at tight end will Aron
White, a 6-4, 227-pound field-stretcher who only caught
three passes but two went for touchdowns. He's not going to
blast away anyone in the running game, but he averaged 29.3
yards per catch and will be a big-play waiting to happen in all
three downs.
Projected Top Reserves: Redshirt freshman
Tavarres King set the
Georgia state record
with 1,632 receiving yards and 17 touchdowns on 99 grabs, and
now he'll push hard for the starting split end job. At 6-1 and
178 pounds, he's thin but he can really, really move. He has
better football speed than timed speed and can hit the home run.
While he still needs polish, he should be deadly when he gets
the ball on the move.With all the drama with the No. 2
receiver role on the other side of A.J. Green, Israel
Troupe, a flanker, might need to be used a big on the
outside. The 6-1, 215-pound junior caught four passes for 39
yards but showed he's ready to do more this year with a nice
spring and a good spring game. A superstar recruit, he has the
talent to go along with the size. Now he has to put it all
together and be a major playmaker.
With Kris Durham out with a shoulder injury, junior Tony
Wilson needed to be up to the task at split end. The
5-11, 198-pounder might be done thanks to an ankle problem that
could be a medical red flag, and a violation of team rules that
would be icing on the cake. He was knocked out for the year
after five games and making one catch, but he was supposed to be
a starter before all the issues.
Used more as a blocking tight end than top receiver,
Figgins is a 6-4, 260-pound veteran who has plenty of starting
experience. The junior only caught two passes for 32 yards, but he has
the hands to do more. He'll spend most of his time blasting away for the
ground game ... eventually. He was suspended for the first six games for
a violation of team rules (reported to have violated the team's
drug policy).
Watch Out For ... Wilson. With Kris Durham gone
for the year, the Dawgs desperately need Wilson to shine on the other
side of Green. If he struggles, King will have to show that he's ready
for a full-time role.
Green. It's college football, not the
NFL. When there's a superstar receiver talent as good as Green, he can't
be taken out of a gameplan by a good defensive game plan. He won't get
the yards or the catches he had last year without Stafford throwing to
him, but he'll be an All-SEC producer.
Weakness: No. 2
receiver. No one appears that concerned about the passing game that has
Green and a lot of uncertainty, but with Mohamed Massaquoi gone and Kris
Durham and Tony Wilson out, there's little margin for error. It could be
uh-oh time.
It's easy to forget after a great 2008 that
Georgia's receiving corps had been generally mediocre before A.J. Green
arrived. It took Green and the maturation of Matthew Stafford to make
the passing game explode, and while it won't go into the tank, it's not
likely to be anywhere near as good without Mohamed Massaquoi. Green will be strong again, no
matter who's throwing to him, but the key the offense could be the play
of one of the unsung talents like Michael Moore or Tavares
King to make the passing game shine.
Rating: 6.5
Offensive Linemen
Projected Starters:
Junior Clint Boling
came up with a special season for a line that desperately needed
someone to step up and become a star. The 6-5, 297-pounder
started early on right tackle, moved to right guard, and spent
the second half of the season at left tackle where he'll start
out the season. An All-SEC caliber performer with a good mix of
power and athleticism, he's a do-it-all blocker who'll be a rock
in pass protection. He'll start on at left tackle until Trinton
Sturdivant is ready, and then he'll move to right tackle or,
depending on the emergence of Vince Vance, could play right
Sophomore Trinton Sturdivant was about to
become one of the nation's elite left tackles when he suffered a
bad knee injury just before the 2007 season. He was still
recovering this offseason and missed spring ball, but all is
well and he's on track to be close to normal come fall. The 6-5,
306-pounder is a tough, athletic all-around blocker who had top
five pick written all over him before the injury. He'll have to
show that he can still be the same athlete and he'll have to
prove he can be the same all-around blocker, but again, he's
expected to be fine. Ben Jones
took over the starting center spot in the fourth game of last
year and isn't going to let it go for another three years. His
emergence as a true freshman allowed Chris Davis to move over to
guard, which turned out to be a key piece to the Bulldog puzzle.
Very tough with a good motor and big-time upside, the sky's the
limit for the 6-3, 294-pounder who got better and better each
week.6-5, 330-pound sophomore Cordy Glenn,
started out last season at right guard but moved over to the
left side over the last six games of the season. He was moved
from guard to tackle this spring and is being given the shot at
the spot on the right side to used his impressive strength and
size to be a bulldozer of a run blocker. The jury is still out
on whether or not he can handle speed rushers on a regular
basis, and he still might move back inside, but he's versatile
and he's good. Justin Anderson is a
big, tough blocker who became a fixture at right tackle through
the middle of last year but is far better suited to a guard
spot. The 6-5, 328-pound sophomore is fine as a pass blocker,
but he's nothing special and should shine now that he'll mainly
have to focus on beating people up on the inside. That's not to
say he can't keep the quarterback clean, but he'll be better in
a phone booth.
Projected Top Reserves:
Bringing the bulk to the inside is 6-5,
328-pound sophomore Tanner Strickland, a nice
recruit a few years ago who spent all of last year as a key
backup and a special teamer. He had a nice spring and will get a
long look at left guard, but he could end up on the right side
depending on the reemergence of Chris Davis from surgery.
The left guard job is there for Chris Davis
to take back once he returns healthy. He started the first three
games at center, moved to left guard for three games, and closed
out the year at right guard. Very smart and very reliable,
with 26 career stars, the 6-4, 290-pound junior moves extremely
well for an interior lineman and could be on the verge of
all-star status if he's back to 100% following hip surgery. He
missed all of spring ball, but he's expected to be back and
ready to go for the fall.6-8, 325-pound senior
Vince Vance started the first three games at left
guard, moved to left tackle for three games, and then got
knocked out for the year with a knee injury. His torn ACL still
needs time to heal up and he'll have to fight back to get into
the mix this fall, but if he's right, he's a starting guard even
though he's listed as a right tackle coming out of spring ball.
He can also play center if needed. Josh Davis
started here and there at right tackle last year but
suffered a shoulder injury in the bowl game and is iffy for the
start of the season. The 6-6, 300-pound junior underwent surgery
on both shoulders, but when he's right, he's one of the team's
better blockers with good athleticism and the versatility to
play just about anywhere.
Watch Out For ... the return of Sturdivant. The
coaching staff is taking it very, very easy on the star of the
ultra-talented line and there isn't going to be any rush to get
him back before he's ready and back to normal. He's almost ready
and back to normal. He'd have been practicing if the season was
about to start, but the extra time off has allowed him to get
that much stronger and his knee that much tougher.
Strength: Versatility. With a few notable exceptions
(like Sturdivant), just about everyone can play everywhere. When
an all-star talent like Boling can be moved around where a hole
needs to be plugged, and there are others who can do the same,
the line is almost injury-proof. That's by design. The coaching
staff plays several players at several different positions in
Weakness: Injuries. From Sturdivant's knee to Vance's
knee to Josh Davis's shoulders to Chris Davis's hip, there are
several health question marks going into the season. The line
survived and thrived through various maladies last year, but no
one wants to go through that again.
Outlook: If everyone is healthy, this might be the
nation's best offensive line and it might not even be close.
Assuming Trinton Studivant is back to being the 2007 version at
left tackle, everything else will fall into place with depth,
versatility, and a whole bunch of big-time talent. The line only
allowed 17 sacks and paved the way for 148 yards per game, and
now it should be even better with eight players returning with
starting experience. The rest of the offense will look a whole
bunch better because of this group. And here's the scary part;
Vince Vance is the only senior on the three-deep.
Rating: 9.5

Those who've been following the controversy over global warming will get the references here:
Back when average temps were actually rising, the major news media loved to illustrate every global warming story with a tempersture graph. But since they leveled off over a decade ago, no temp graphs are shown. It would be too obvious that the emperor of global warming has no clothes.
Global warming has entered the realm of faith, like the ozone hole, which was never a hole (it was only a 10% decrease) and never a threat to inhabited latitudes. Ozone not only absorbs UV light, it is formed by UV splitting oxygen molecules O2 to enable free atoms to form O3 (ozone). Because ozone is highly reactive, its population in the stratosphere is sustained by sunlight. When the polar regions are in darkness in winter, the ozone cannot be replenished, so there is a deficit by spring, but it builds up again by summer. The catalyzation of ozone breakdown by CFCs can only happen when there are ice crystals in the stratosphere, namely during a polar winter. Thus, the ozone hole was never a threat to inhabited climes.
But here is the fun part: The substitute refrigerants that replaced CFCs are intensely strong greenhouse gases, thousands of times stronger than CO2 and more enduring, so since they were put into use in 1990, they have been providing a large amount of the greenhouse effect. A solution to a non-problem, prescribed by international environmentalism, has become a major contributor to the new major climate problem. And we should let those screw-ups tell us how to solve this problem?
Acid rain isn't a real problem either.

Should the Minnesota Wild be worried?
Dec 23, 2011, 12:34 AM EDT
To the awe of many critics, the Minnesota Wild managed a tight-rope act to the top spot in the Northwest Division through the first quarter of the season. They still remain a point ahead of the surging Vancouver Canucks, but with their sixth loss in a row, is time to get worried yet?
The scrappy team wasn't exactly blowing opponents out when they were winning, but their offense has fallen apart without Mikko Koivu in the lineup. Their underrated captain was placed on the IR today, which is horrible news.
Minnesota has only managed seven goals in their last six games while going 0-4-2, including a 4-1 loss to the Edmonton Oilers tonight. (Dany Heatley scored what was essentially a garbage goal in the third period.)
Looking at the simplest numbers, it doesn't seem like the problem is a lack of effort. They've managed at least 30 shots in all but one game (they fired 27 on the Winnipeg Jets in a 2-1 defeat that began this ugly streak). Most hockey people expected the Wild to struggle without Koivu – especially considering the team's litany of other injuries – but it seems obvious that they have trouble winning small margin of error games without him.
My guess is that the Wild's chances of winning their division are very slim. The Canucks are just one point behind them with two games in hand and a boatload of momentum. A playoff berth is certainly still a reasonable goal for Minnesota, though.
That being said, they'll need to find some scoring if they want to do any damage once/if they get there.
- gbiscottagecheesefatties - Dec 23, 2011 at 12:59 AM
not about the season but about these injuries… this is getting depressing… we need our top guys back but it's not looking great… Koivu should be back after xmas and Seto is out with an undisclosed knee injury (I assume ACL sprain) … and who knows if we ever see Latendresse again in a Wild sweater.. UGH!!!!
"If" we make the playoffs and are healthy then, that's all that matters
- gbiscottagecheesefatties - Dec 23, 2011 at 1:00 AM
this should tell everyone how important Koivu really is to this team and how great of a defender he is in the slot. How many goals have we let in to top lines since he hasn't been in the lineup. He is worth every penny. There is more to this game than just goals folks, hope it is clear enough to see now. Koivu, hurry back!!!
- canucks18 - Dec 23, 2011 at 1:36 AM
It's good to see these guys playing well (before the last 6) cause this is a hard working very underrated team. Hope they make the playoffs!!! Good luck
- greatminnesotasportsmind - Dec 23, 2011 at 2:20 AM
Koivu is the glue, the Wild slumped in March last year when he was out.
- polegojim - Dec 23, 2011 at 9:50 AM
Appears to be true…and that's the problem. The Wild's 'Achilles Heal' is lack of depth.
If a team tanks this hard with one or two guys out, coaching is also an issue. Preparation for injury is part of their job.
Somebody should be stepping up and they're not.

There really isn't much to prepare for in case of a Koivu Injury. At the moment, there is literally no one in the NHL or AHL to pick up the slack of what he does on the top line. Next year, and future years when Granlund, Larrson, Phillips, Zucker and Coyle are on the team or in the AHL it shouldn't be as big of a problem because they project as top 6 players. But there is not one AHL player or player outside our original top 6 that plays that style of game.
It leaves the Wild running a 2nd line as a first line, a third line as a 2nd line and two AHL lines masquarading as 3rd and 4th NHL lines. It just doesn't work.

You totally missed the point.
Yes, you DO prepare to fill the line…even if it's not of equal talent.
Detroit was still winning without Datsyuk…not as much… but they didn't tank.
That's the point.

Teams that are supposed to beat them are starting to beat them now. Nature is taking it's course.
- davebabychreturns - Dec 23, 2011 at 11:59 AM
Careful. A couple of weeks ago I posted a comment summarizing just how unlikely it was that the Wild had the record they did and I got raked over the coals for it.
Whether it's true or not that the Wild have been due for a correction, people just don't seem to want to hear it.
Still, obviously Koivu is a big loss and they have been missing several other contributors for awhile. As much as their early season record was unsustainable, the amount of losing they've done in the last couple of weeks is unsustainable as well. At the end of this year if they can get and remain healthy this team should be a lock for a playoff spot.
- theyarecalledbreezers - Dec 23, 2011 at 9:18 PM
Prepare for more raking.
So… you "summarized" that a team, which was expected to finish in the bottom half of the league, wasn't going to be able to stay on top of the NHL?? Way to go genius. TSN should hire you as an analyst for your gutsy predictions and groundbreaking insight. Way to take a chance on that one. What people don't want to hear is the same boring statements about why teams will ultimately fail. 29 of 30 teams "fail" every year. To make your predictable "told you so" statements, is not only lazy, but simply uninteresting. You're taking the side of the argument that is correct 97% of the time. Who cares if a team does what you think they will? What's interesting about sports is when teams break the law of averages. Giving an analysis on why a statistical "blip" actually is happening, rather than why it will stop, is impressive, compelling and shows knowledge of the game beyond the stat sheet. Do that, and people might care about your opinion.

Now at this time, I would like to turn the conference over to Mr. John McCarvel, Chief Executive Officer of Crocs. Please go ahead, sir.
John McCarvel
Thank you and thank you for joining us on today's earnings call. Before I begin with comments I am pleased to announce that Jeff Lasher has been appointed Crocs' new Chief Financial Officer and he is with me again on the call today.
After an exhaustive search and lengthy interview process, Jeff emerged as the most qualified candidate to fill this critical role. Our business continues to expand both in size and complexity and I'm very confident that Jeff's financial expertise, deep understanding of our global multi-channel business will service well into the future.
Now to our results, we are very pleased with our first quarter performance which was highlighted by record revenues and earnings that were significantly better than a year ago. The momentum that we created during the past 12 to 18 months with our compelling new products and effective marketing programs has carried over into 2011 and is driving important market share gain in the Americas, Europe and Asia which were up 35%, 42% and 33% respectively in Q1.
Last year, the spring 2010 season started off well with the launch of the Crocband collection and we followed up with other new collections and products throughout the year that built on the aspects of the brand's original DNA. Crocs continue to evolve from an iconic product to a lifestyle brand that appeals to a wider audience and consumers today.
This year for Spring 2011, we launched fresh new ideas and collections like our Translucent and own take on sneakers and (inaudible).Our backlog at yearend and at March 31st underscore the confidence retailers have in Crocs and they are now being rewarded as early sell-through rates in Q1 have been solid.
Where many companies today aspire to be global and grow their international presence we continue to execute our plan on an already global business platform. Our non-domestic US international revenue was 65% for up total revenue for Q1. In the Americas, we experienced solid growth across our diverse customer base of department stores, sporting goods, specialty retailers, independent shops and family footwear chains..
Shoppers are being presented with a much boarder assortment of products than a year ago and in a much more appealing environment. Thanks to our investments in new visual merchandizing and point of sales fixtures. With a significant number of new different styles spread across multiple collection, we now have the ability to segment our product within our distribution network.
This has created scarcity for select new products, something we weren't doing a couple of years ago which I believe is good for the long-term health of our business. In the first quarter we are also launched our newest foot wear collection, Jibbitz by Crocs. We rolled out Jibbitz by Crocs initially in 550 doors and are now sold in many target locations. The initial consumer response has been very encouraging. We're currently in the process of increasing sales count for holiday 11 and for spring summer 12 for the comfortable fund in affordable line of footwear.
The strength of the spring line is also driving growth in our retail location throughout the United States. Our translucent, sneaker, sandals and core CROCS sales are all selling well while the reaction to tuning products has been mixed in the US. As we discussed on last year's Q1 call, when we had delayed the launch our new product into our direct-to-consumer channel, this year we transitioned our retail stores to the new spring summer 2011 line earlier in the season. This has provided a lift in revenue growth and our customers have reacted favorably. We're seeing similar results in Europe with the exception of toning which has been well received in several markets.

Having spent a career working as a computer specialist in the financial industry in Chicago and New York City, I traveled a lot and met a lot of varied characters. I bring that experience, and a history to looking at problems in unexpected ways to weave interesting stories together.
I struggled with writing for a long time, but could never finish anything, until I realized that while I could suspend my disbelief long enough to read a novel, I couldn't do it long enough to write one. Thus I decided to ignore the standard 'rules' of writing a story.
Every time I write a story, beside a basic plot and a theme, I create a particular writing challenge (like creating a cast of hundreds, or killing of most of my characters). It may not always work, but it keeps me interested, it makes me work that much harder, and it provides some unique tales.

I really enjoyed this book, it was interesting and I can see the Gov't reacting in the way described.
I would Love to see a sequel/continuation of the story though!

on March 17, 2014 :
I've enjoyed all of Vincent's books, and Stranded is no exception. His crash landing scenario focuses on the human element, but there is some alien uniqueness and some fancy technology. I'm not sure if our government is quite as bad as the book makes it out to be, but it wouldn't surprise me. A very enjoyable read.

Hoopers banish Devils to seize men's title at BayBall
Players Club holdover Lucus Denning wanted to keep things going, so he cobbled together three other players and Hoopers Club was born. The new 3-on-3 team continued the Players' tradition, taking the BayBall title Sunday by sweeping two games from defending champion Devils outside of the American Bank Center.
Denning was joined by Sam Gray, Eddie Hernandez and Luis Stillman.
"I decided to get a team together and get the same kind of unity we had over there," Denning said. "Good teamwork, solid defense, passing the ball."
Hoopers Club took the long way to the title, losing its first game Saturday morning and fighting its way back through the losers' bracket. It earned the title by winning six games in a row.
"We started with a little game plan after that game and stuck with it," Gray said of the opening-game defeat.
After winning the first game Sunday against Devils - which defeated Players Club in last year's title game - Hoopers Club broke open a close final game, and were on game point with a five-point lead. Twice, Hoopers Club had an opportunity to win the game at the line, but each time they turned down the free throw before a basket game the team a 15-10 victory.
"That's cheap. No one wants to win on the free throw line," said former Aransas Pass High standout Gray. "You win on the line, and that's chicken. We wanted to win fair and square. I'm sure (Devils) felt the same way."
Another BayBall tradition took a tumble, as Fokai fell to Blazers 13-12 in the Women's Division. Fokai had won two titles in a row, and some members also had taken BayBall titles in the past with Team Reality and Mad Game.
Adding a spin to it, some of the Blazers - made up of Valerie Jaimes, Phatima McNary, Katera Thompson and Valerie Villanueva - were facing their former AAU coaches, who played for Fokai.
"They coached us last summer," said Thompson, a Moody High-ex. "They're real good competition, and I liked playing against them. It was fun."
It was a fun time - if not a tiring one - for Jonathan Speas, who won two BayBall titles Sunday, playing on Division 9 champion Ball Till We Fall and Division 10 title-winner Evolution.
Ball Till We Fall is a family team, while Evolution was put together by a friend who gets players together at a local park. Twice Speas, who hit the clinching free throw in Evolution's title win, had to go from one contest to a game in progress on the next court.
Saturday, after doing double-duty, Speas sprawled out on the court and was face down after a game. But his job wasn't over. A court monitor had a little paperwork for Speas, needing him to sign a score sheet.
"I laid out flat," Speas said. "A lady came and slid a paper under my face and said, 'Can you sign this?' It was pretty tiring."

Alshon Jeffery - Week 17 vs. Minnesota
At this point it's almost a guarantee Alshon Jeffery is going to score a touchdown. He's scored at least once in six consecutive games. In fact, since Week 4 he's scored in every game but three. He's also finished with at least 70 yards receiving in four consecutive games.
This week Jeffery faces a Vikings defense he annihilated back in Week 11. He finished that game with 11 receptions for 135 yards and a touchdown. It's unlikely he'll put up those type of numbers again, but Jeffery should be viewed as a WR1 this week.

American conference ends meetings on upbeat note, optimistic about future
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — He was hired as commissioner of the Big East Conference barely nine months ago, and that entity effectively doesn't exist anymore. So on the closing day of the American Athletic Conference annual meetings here Wednesday, Mike Aresco joked that he had some "collector's items" with the insignia of the old Big East, if anyone wanted them.
In that, and in a three-day series of meetings filled with what he called "camaraderie," Aresco found cheerful symbolism.
"Nobody ever even slipped and said Big East," Aresco said, smiling, of the meetings' attendees. "Everybody said 'American.' It was remarkable. It was the American Athletic Conference. Even I didn't (say Big East)."
The name may be a small thing, but Aresco has a point, considering the whirlwind series of events that have taken place for this league — and the short amount of time it has had to craft so many fundamental aspects of a conference that most take for granted. League leaders emerged from meetings here Wednesday optimistic about its future — as Aresco remarked at just how far it's come in a short amount of time.
About six months ago, the Big East was still trying to forge a path forward with its basketball-only members and the remnants of a football-playing league that was down but not out. But when Louisville and Rutgers announced plans to depart (they'll do so next summer), it led to the basketball-only Catholic schools leaving.
That was announced in December. Since then, the American has, well, "you name it," Aresco said. "Go down the list."
So he did. The American has:
Found a name, settled with the Catholic schools on the conveyance of the Big East name, and settled on a logo, which it will unveil as early as next week.
Signed a television contract. While it didn't produce the kind of money the schools wanted, Aresco said it was a critical key for everything else falling into place. "Once we had that in place we knew we could embark on a series of building blocks, one day at a time, one week at a time," he said. "And yeah, has it come together maybe a little sooner than we expected? Yeah."
Reached a split with San Diego State and Boise State, who will be a part of the Mountain West.
Invited East Carolina an all-sports member (it was previously football only) and invited Tulsa.
Re-worked schedules for all of its sports beginning this fall, no small task.
Attempted to piece together its bowl future, though that piece remains in flux.
Reached the final stages of scouting sites for its 2014 basketball tournament. (All indications are that Memphis is the preferred destination; "It's getting closer and closer and closer, I just can't say anything officially because none of it's agreed," U of M athletic director Tom Bowen said.)
It's the kind of list an established conference just recycles year after year. The American had to cook it all up, some completely from scratch, in the space of just a few months. Plenty of work remains, but the talk around the American this week at its annual meetings was about the future, not the threat of realignment.
"I don't know if surprised would be the word. I think I'm pleased," Aresco said, asked if he were surprised at the load of work his league had accomplished in the span of months. "I'm gratified. Because, you know, we had some tough times in November and December and January, let's be honest. ... When you're in the middle of that you say OK, you've got to figure out a way to navigate this, and these are uncharted waters."

Originally written on Fox Soccer | Last updated 10/11/12
Iker Casillas has been warned as to his future conduct by Jose Mourinho after spending too long mingling with rival players. The Real Madrid keeper took the time to speak with almost all of the Barcelona side at the end of Sunday's El Clasico clash at Camp Nou. Mourinho believes Casillas should not be fraternising with supposed arch-enemies so publicly and would rather he headed straight for the dressing room at the final whistle. "I was aware of what Casillas did and next time he can stay with them," said the Real boss. In the wake of an enthralling encounter which ended 2-2, Casillas spoke at length with Barca's two-goal hero Lionel Messi, before going on to catch up with his Spanish international colleagues. The Real stalwart has come in for criticism from certain sections of the Madrid press for his performance in Catalunya, both during and after the game. His efforts in attempting to stop a Messi free-kick, which handed Barca a 2-1 lead, have been questioned, but Mourinho...

I'm not familiar with this Holiday Tradition. Are you???
by Heather Rivera
posted Dec 8 2011 10:35AM
William E. Robinson,
from Georgia, was arrested for shooting down some mistletoe with his shotgun in a mall!
His defense. ...
"Every year I go somewhere to get some mistletoe to decorate the house,"..."I get some for my friends that can't get mistletoe. The best way to get it is with a shotgun."
He wanted to hunt for mistletoe on a friend's property, but when his acquaintance wasn't home, he turned his attention to a tree that he claims is on the mall's "fence line."
A passing motorist contacted authorities after spotting Robinson firing one shot and collecting his yuletide bounty near an Applebee's restaurant ..
. The driver trailed the suspect to a Citgo gas station, where police took him into custody.

for the entire story. The picture of William goes with his defense for sure!

Create a unique groomsmen gift for the wedding party, or your groom, with these customized rustic wood coasters. They're really easy to create and make for a special and useful gift. Here's how to make your own set of wood burned coasters.
Materials:wood coasters, like these wood burning tool set (available on Amazon) alphabet hot stamps (available on Amazon)
How To:
1. To create custom nameplate coaster, screw on the first letter of the name you want to stamp, to the wood burning tool. Then plug in and turn on and wait 3-5 minutes for the stamp to heat up.
2. Now that the tool has had time to heat up, stamp the first letter onto your coaster, leaving the stamp in place for 3-5 seconds before lifting straight up.
3. Turn the wood burning tool off and wait for it to cool down. Then replace the letter you just used with the next letter in the name. Turn the tool on again and wait for it to heat back up. Once the tool has had time to heat back up, stamp the letter onto the coaster, just as you did with the first letter in the name.
4. Repeat step 3 until the entire name has been spelled out. Note: To create a monogram instead, simply use the same letter over and over again, for a variation of looks from coaster to coaster.
5. Wrap with a bow, if desired, and you have a great, inexpensive groom or groomsmen gift.
These coasters would be a thoughtful detail at a wedding reception, as well as a great place for people to put down drinks. Monogram them with the bride and grooms initials or wedding date and you're all set.

Everyone one loves a mini dessert, and with this DIY you can treat all your guests to lots and lots of mini cookies. We just love the mini milk bottles they are packaged in here, but you could easily use a cellophane treat bag or small box.
What You'll Need:Wooden rolling pin Piping gel Sugar cookie recipe Fondant (in colors of your choosing) Small heart cookie cutter Food-use only paint brush Small acrylic rolling pin
How To:
Roll out sugar cookie dough with wood rolling pin, using extra flour if necessary to prevent sticking. Refrigerate until firm before proceeding to next step.
Use small heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut hearts from dough. Scraps can be either re-rolled and used again immediately or shaped into a flattened disk, wrapped in plastic wrap, and frozen.
Space cookies on parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 325, checking after 6 minutes for doneness. Remove from oven when a slight golden brown can be seen around the edges.
While cookies bake, roll fondant thin with small acrylic rolling pin. Cut small hearts using same heart-shaped cutter used for cookies.
Brush cookie with piping gel.
Place fondant heart on top of cookie, pressing gently so it adheres to cookie.
Display cookies in mini milk jars (we purchased them on Amazon) tied with matching ribbon.
One of the trends we love about rustic weddings is the do-it-yourself projects even the least crafty brides create with wood. Here's what to display for every part of your big day:

By: Jenny BattA touch of gold goes a long way! These metallic tassels will add an interesting flair to place settings. Materials White latex paint Small plastic container Paper clips Foil lined tray Bamboo skewer Gold liquid gilding Step One: Wrap thick cotton twine around your fingers about 20 times and cut the end. Step Two: Take a second piece of twine, then wrap and tie around the top. Knot to secure. Step Three: Unfold paperclips and hook on the tops of the tassels. Step Four: Pour white latex paint into a small container with high sides. Hold the tassel up with the paper clip and dip the tassel into the paint. Step Five: Use the skewer to press in the entire tassel until it is completely submerged. Pull out tassel and use skewer to scrape off any excess paint. Step Six: Lay to dry on a foil lined tray or cookie sheet. Use the skewer to gently style the tassel if needed. Repeat with remaining tassels. Let dry for 24 hours, flipping tassels over and placing them on a clean portion of the tray after 12 hours. You can also hang to dry with a tray underneath. Step Seven: Outside, paint each tassel gold and let dry. Spray a second coat. Flip over and cover the other side with two light coats. Let them air out a few days before use. DIY: Gilded Tassel Adornments Tie each tassel to cotton twine and wrap around napkins at each setting. Add a tag if desired. These would be just as fun as escort cards or attached to magnets and given as favors! (photos by hankandhunt.com)
Photo By Chelsea FussUsing five varieties of Lilac and a a few stems of springtime Spirea, we created a gathered, musky bouquet that any bride would be happy to sink her nose in for a day. The textured, romantic style is perfect for a modern, traditional or country wedding. You will need: 30 stems of lilac. We used: Korean Lilac (tiny flowers), "Beauty of Moscow (light pink), "Mount Baker" (white), Common Purple Lilac and Wedgewood Blue. 15 stems of spirea string flower clippers ribbon or cloth tape Directions: 1. Condition flowers overnight. Cut the stems and cut a slit upwards in each stem to allow it to drink water. Sit them in lukewarm water in a cool place away from drafts, heat, and fruit and food. 2. Strip most of the leaves off the lilacs. Usually the stems are long so trim them to around 12" each. Make sure there is one stem per large blossom. If there are two stems, trim one off. 3. Make piles of each type and color. 4. Gather 1- 2 stems in your one hand. Add stems at a 45 degree angle. Turn the bouquet to the right each time you add stems. The stems should spiral. For the most part, larger, heavier blooms should sit at the bottom of the bouquet and lighter buds and blossoms should sit near the top. 5. Secure with twine or string. 6. Add a ribbon. We used a patterned cloth tape (usually sold for bookbinding) and simply wrapped it on top of the string. If you use a ribbon, secure with a pin. Tips for working with lilacs: Always give them a clean cut when you bring them home. Cut at an angle, and then cut upwards into the stem, once. Use lukewarm water, lilacs don't like to be shocked by really cold or hot water. If some blooms start to wilt, recut the stems. Keep away from fruit, food, direct sunlight, and drafts. Plan to buy a bit more than you need, a few stems in the bunch will always wilt. Don't be afraid to work with lilac, if you remember these simple tips, it's easy! Photo By Chelsea Fuss
Photos By: Chelsea FussThese sweet and wild green wreaths are perfect for anytime of year (just change out the ribbon to suit the season). They look gorgeous on church doors, bride and groom chairs, or as pew markers. Total cost: $5 per wreath. Materials: Spool wire Floral tape Clippers Greens (about 15 stems per wreath, we used rosemary, bay and boxwood) Ribbon 1. Form a circle (whatever size you need. Remember your wreath will be slightly bigger than the form) with the spool wire and double it over several times. 2. Cover the circle in floral tape. 3. Cut small pieces of greens and, take excess leaves off about an inch of the bottom stem. 4. Secure each piece with wire. 5. Make sure you overlap the stems to cover any wires or mechanics. You may need to fill in with a few extra pieces. 6. You can make these up to a week ahead of time. Spray daily with water and keep in a cool, dark place. 7. Hang with ribbon and afterwards send them home with special guests. Add this natural touch to your big day - and have fun! Photos By: Chelsea Fuss

Rebekah Brooks and Andy Coulson, former lead editors of the News of the World tabloid in Britain, are among eight former News Corp. journalists being charged with conspiring to intercept voice mail to get stories.
Piers Morgan, the host of CNN's "Tonight" program and former editor of three British tabloids, was contradicted by Paul McCartney's former wife at a U.K. inquiry triggered by News Corp.'s phone-hacking scandal.
Piers Morgan, the presenter of CNN's "Tonight" show and a former editor of the U.K.'s Daily Mirror newspaper, should return to Britain to answer questions about phone-hacking, lawmakers said.
Wells Fargo & Co., the biggest U.S. home lender, said it reached a $590 million settlement in principle with plaintiffs who claimed in a lawsuit that Wachovia Corp. misled investors.
The U.K. is looking at making U.S.- style pre-nuptial agreements legally binding after high-profile divorce cases involving the ex-Beatle, Paul McCartney , and a former JPMorgan Chase & Co. investment banker.
CNN , the 24-hour cable news network owned by Time Warner Inc. , hired "America's Got Talent" judge Piers Morgan to replace talk-show host Larry King .
Piers Morgan, the host of CNN's "Tonight" program and former editor of three British tabloids, told a U.K. inquiry into press ethics that he wasn't involved in phone hacking when he oversaw the newspapers.
A former reporter at the Daily Mirror U.K. tabloid contradicted evidence given by CNN broadcaster Piers Morgan, saying that phone hacking took place on a daily basis at the newspaper's show business desk.
Bankers, socialites and heirs to family fortunes may win more power to protect assets in divorces if the U.K. Supreme Court tomorrow moves a step closer to recognizing U.S.-style pre-nuptial agreements, lawyers say.

Real Salt LakeRead MoreMost years, an MLS team would be disappointed by an 11-12-7 regular-season record. That wasn't the case for Real Salt Lake. In 2009, RSL rode that very record to the final spot in the MLS playoffs. Embracing a "Team is the star" philosophy, the squad banded together and swept through the playoffs, besting some of the league's top franchises to capture their first ever MLS Cup. Ever since, the team has been a Western Conference powerhouse behind head coach Jason Kreis, who started his career at Real Salt Lake as team captain before trading his captain's armband for a coach's sense of accountability. Real Salt Lake plays their home games in Rio Tinto Stadium, a 20,000-spectator facility that opened its massive doors in 2008 with advanced technology that includes a 60-foot video screen and LED video ribbons stretching 200 feet across both sidelines.9256 S State St.Sandy, UT US

The aquatic havens spread across Utah and Indiana, luring families and adventurous kayakers with forests of twisting water slides such as the Provo location's Boomerang, which sends passengers ricocheting down three stories.

Customer Reviews of HP Deskjet D4260 Inkjet Printer
They're giving this away to sell the ink.4/20/2008
For someone that wants a printer for documents and power point hard copies, it is hard to fault this printer. I particularly like it because it is small and I can store it away easily when I am not using it. It is good looking, simple and works. I have a large (expensive) photo printer but don't hesitate to use this for the occasional photo (however, someone that wants a photo printer should look elsewhere and expect to spend much more money). For $70, it costs about the same as the 2 (XL) ink cartridges it uses. My theory is that HP wants to give this away to sell ink.
cheap and fast1/23/2008
Inexpensive printer, prints very fast in draft mode. I have two kids in school, we needed a fast printer that could print out decently in draft mode (to save ink) This printer does a good job of printing in draft mode (very readable and submittable to school) and is very quick. I am happy that I bought it.

Rural Jacumba clinic closes due to state funding cuts
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services intends to provide $11 billion in grants over five years for construction, expansion and operation of community clinics that care for under-served populations.
But short-term relief is hard to find for clinics just struggling to keep afloat.
Earlier this month, federal officials announced $727 million in construction money to 143 clinics nationwide. In San Diego County, the Borrego Community Health Foundation received $7.2 million and the Family Health Centers of San Diego got $12 million.
The federal agency now is offering $335 million for existing federally-qualifying clinics to expand services. The funds may be awarded in the spring, said Martin Kramer, spokesman for the federal Health Resources and Services Administration.
"I think it's fair to say that health care centers that apply will get some funding," he said.

By Alabama Public Radio
Montgomery, AL – A caravan is planning to arrive in Washington, D-C next Monday just in time for the U-S Supreme Court's fall session. The group wants to bring the issue surrounding display of the Ten Commandments to the nation's capital. Ten Commandments supporters gathered in Montgomery yesterday for one more rally before the trip begins. Christian Defense Coalition Director Patrick Mahoney says the group will hold a protest at the U-S Capitol once they arrive in Washington. The group has asked Congress to display a copy of the Ten Commandments in the national Capitol building. He says the rally will be similar to the one that drew hundreds of people to the Alabama Judicial Building last month. he caravan includes a mobile billboard and a foam model of state Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore's Ten Commandments monument.

Riri beats Black Eyed Peas and Eminem by pulling in a grand total of 47.5 million downloads since her 2005 debut in 'Music of the Sun'.
Rihanna is crowned the queen of the digital sales. The Barbados singer, who claimed her worldwide fame through her 2007 smash hit single "Umbrella", has pulled in the most downloaded songs and albums in the digital world despite her relatively-brief music career which she started in 2005.
According to the number released by Nielsen SoundScan, Riri has garnered a whopping 47.5 million digital downloads since making her debut through "Music of the Sun". In 2011 alone, she has sold a grand total of 13.9 million copies of records, placing her at the third place on the year's top ten digital selling artists.
In the all-time list, Riri beats Black Eyed Peas and Eminem. The former settles at the runner-up place with 42.4 million, while the latter sits at no. 3 with 42.2 million. The Slim Shady is the ninth-best selling digital artists of 2011, while BEP miss the list. The group, however, place two of their singles on "top 10 selling digital songs of all time" list where Riri was absent.
Aside from Riri, BEP and the Slim Shady, other musicians who make it on to the "top 10 best-selling digital artists" list are Lady GaGa, Taylor Swift and Katy Perry. The Mother Monster occupies the fourth place with 42 million, the "Safe & Sound" crooner follows at the next spot with 41,8 million, and the "Teenage Dream" hitmaker claims the sixth place with 37 million.
Though she is only ranked sixth on the all-time list, Katy, who produces five No. 1 single from one single album "Teenage Dream", has the most downloaded music in the year of 2011. According to the Nielsen data, she has raked in a staggering 15.1 million, beating Adele and the champion of all-time Riri.
