Was out in the area doing some winter caching with good friend Screamin' Mimi 60. It was tough staying warm today but your cache helped to keep the chill out. I trotted out across the street while Mimi kept circling...found it in the last place I looked. Isn't that always the way it is...WI Hibiscus was driving by and got me going in the right direction.

I am a bike commuter form SW suburbs of Cleveland. I've been cranking to work at least 12 years (over 180 times/year recently).
My concerns include protecting cyclists right to the roads, improving bicycle traffic laws, cyclists' legal defense and educating society about cycling.
I have a big advocacy section on the Crankmail Web Site. This includes a survey of local bicycle traffic ordanances in 60 NE Ohio communities (results are not good).
As mentioned in another post, I am running for the board of the League of American Bicyclists. I hope to get LAB to do more of the needs listed above. I need 50 signatures on petitions by late Dec. Please help if you are an LAB memeber and live in IL, IN, MI or OH. http://www.geocities.com/fredoswald/LAB.html

Flamengo have announced that they have appointed former Brazil international Jorginho to replace Dorival Junior.
Jorginho, 48 and a member of the Brazil team that won the 1994 FIFA World Cup USA™, has signed a contract through to December next year, Flamengo said on their website.
Jorginho played in Germany for several years, winning a league title with Bayern Munich and he later had a successful spell in Japan with Kashima Antlers. He was an assistant to former Brazil coach Dunga at the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa before taking over at Figueirense. He then took the reins last year at Kashima.
Six-time league champions Flamengo are having a lean spell as they finished last season in mid-table.

COVINGTON — Newton's softball team started Region 2-AAAAAA with a win beating Locust Grove 3-0 on Tuesday.
"I feel like this win will give us the confidence we need to continue our season on a positive road," first-year head coach Ashley Coles said. "I am hoping we will use the momentum to keep us fired up for the rest of our season."
The scoring for the Lady Rams (1-4, 1-0) came with one swing of the bat as a triple cleared with the bases in the fifth inning.
Newton freshman pitcher Brittany Ellis got the inning started with a single up the middle of the field. Even though Madison Kinard's main objective was to move Ellis to second, she was able to beat the throw to first putting runners on first and second. Katy Ammonds showed patience at the plate to get a free pass to load the bases before getting driven home with Ciara Bryan's triple.
"She hit a shot over centerfielder's head. She scored three runs and earned herself a triple," Coles said. "It was clutch for her to come through with three runners on. She is coming into her own as a leader and we expect her to continue her leadership on and off the field."
Ellis kept the Locust Grove bats quiet retiring the side in order in five of the seven innings while striking out four batters.
"Our pitching was great. Our freshmen really stepped up and threw a great game. She hit her spots and had command over the game. We will see great things from this young athlete in the future," Coles said.
"We are a very young team. With that we have challenges, but we also have girls that are willing to be coached and molded. I feel that we saw adjustments being made during this game, which is a great sign of maturity."

I actually wouldn't mind him starting and keeping him accountable for the minutes he plays. Having him out there with the starters might make him more conscious about playing within the system and reduce the chucking.
Right now, he's constantly coming in with the Knicks behind and he thinks his role is to indiscriminately chuck the team back into the game. Have him start and he might be more likely to move the ball, concentrate on defense, and shoot when Felton gives him the ball. If he doesn't behave, pull him for Shump quickly, so he gets the message.
JR Smith Should Start

I agree J.R Smith would be a nice addition to the starting line up. Smith and Melo + Chandler can have some amazing moments. Hopefully Mike Woodson sees it this way.
STFU and GTFO out Heat, Lakers, Raptors follower...JR just needs to start playing team ball instead of chuck mode.

JR Smith starting, much like him taking good shots and playing defence, is simply a Pipe dream. Get over it.

Re: JR Smith Should Start
Haha this board is so amazing. I was saying the same things that you guys are saying about JR when we were doing pretty good. Some people called me crazy, some of them accused me of not being a Knick fan. I am glad that we are on the same page right now.
JR Smith, Felton have 0 basketball IQ. As soon as we get rid of them and bring some players at least Tyson's basketball IQ level, we'll win something.

School board launches investigation into talk by Charles Smith
An eastern Ontario school board official regrets that disgraced pathologist Charles Smith was invited to speak to a class of Grade 11 students.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
An eastern Ontario school board is investigating how disgraced former pathologist Charles Smith ended up appearing as a guest speaker at a local high school where he talked about the role of pathologists and DNA.
Rob McGall, director of education for the Hastings and Prince Edward School Board, said Tuesday that he regrets that Smith appeared as a guest speaker before approximately 30 Grade 11 students in a law class Friday.
"From a director's perspective, this is not what we would hope for in terms of the approach to something as complicated as this particular speaker," he said.
"This would not be a presenter that we would readily endorse. If we were dealing with a challenging topic like this, we would be looking for more of a balanced approach. So from that aspect it certainly is disappointing," he added.
McGall said that each school in the board currently has its own protocol for inviting guest presenters and at Prince Edward Collegiate, senior school officials are supposed to approve any speakers.
"The practice is for others to have a look at the application to have a presenter to come in and sign off on it and we are looking at right now to see if that process was followed," he said.
McGall said it is too early to know whether anyone would be disciplined or an apology issued to students and parents.
"We are not there yet. At this early stage the best I can say is that as a district we are looking at our practices, we are looking at whether there needs to be a central approach to this kind of decision making. We know that in this case the board officials were not aware and that is probably a change that has to occur," he said.
Smith made mistakes in 20 death investigations in which people were criminally charged, convicted or otherwise implicated in the deaths of children.

The sights of our century are on cosmic space. The greatest triumph in cosmic conquest will come when man recognizes that he himself, as a being of body, soul and spirit, is united with the cosmos as an evolving whole. This book is unique is this field. It presents the spiritual nature of the Zodiac for meditation and relates it to self-knowledge. He who wishes, can thus find his place in the universe and understand the reasonableness of rincarnation. Each incarnation is a new opportunity to adcance a grade in the earth-school. How adcance can be made in each zodiac sign influence is the good news which this book offers. Meditation on these MEDITATIONS, and practice of the suggestions, will be instimably soul-revealing and rewarding. Through such study one can comprehend, with loving understanding and compassion, his fellow men. Much of the misunderstanding between individuals, groups, and nations will disappear when mankind learns to view everything, not from one standpoint only, but from twelve viewpoints. This book is a tool not only for the serious student of spiritual life, but for every human being in his association with others, be it family life, in work, as a teacher, psychologist, doctor, business man, or any other human relationship. The Right use of these MEDITATIONS may enable one to achieve harmonious wholeness, within oneself and in one's environment. Such an approach to the divine design of the cosmos and man's place in it, awakens wonder, and develops increasing humility and reverence in the presence of the infinitely sublime divinity of the Zodiac. Imbued with these thoughts and feelings, and knowing that every thought, feeling and deed has an effect upon the whole, one willingly and gladly assumes his responsiblity as a creator in the creative process of the cosmos.

Latest news, analysis and links on UW football, basketball and other sports
For UW, MSU defense never rests
Madison – So you think tough defense will be the theme in the ramp-up to Wisconsin's Big Ten game Thursday at Michigan State?
In league games only:
UW is No. 1 in the Big Ten in scoring defense (56.3 ppg) and Michigan State is No. 2 (57.8 ppg).
Michigan State is No. 1 in field-goal defense (37.6%) and UW is No. 3 (40.1%).
Michigan State is No. 1 in three-point defense (27.9%) and UW is No. 2 (29.3%).
UW, by the way, has allowed league-low 150 three-point attempts. Illinois is No. 2 in the league in that category (190 attempts).
Monday during the Big Ten coaches' teleconference, UW coach Bo Ryan was asked about his team's defense.
"It starts with an attitude," Ryan said. "You have to have guys who say: 'OK, this is what we've got to do in order to have a chance.'
"Knowing that the offensive end can get scary at times, good and bad."
Ryan chuckled when talking about his team's offense being scary at times, perhaps recalling that UW went scoreless over the final 7 minutes 42 seconds of regulation in an overtime victory at Minnesota last week.
"But on the defensive end with the effort, with understanding screening situations…the different nuances of pinching and showing and different terms that we use, if you have that you at least give yourself a chance to compete.
"Don't give up easy baskets, try not to give up second shots. All the things that everybody talks about, we talk about the same things.
"But to have guys make that commitment and to make them have that understanding gives you a chance.
"That's basically what we're trying to do night in and night out and on the offensive end try to be a little more consistent."
Speaking of consistency, UW enters the week as the Big Ten's best road team since 2001-'02, Ryan's first season.
Beginning with that season, UW is 47-43 in Big Ten road games (.522) and 61-58 in all road games (.513).
The Badgers are 5-1 in Big Ten road games and 6-2 in all road games this season. UW finished 4-5 in Big Ten road games and 5-6 in all road games last season.
"Well it certainly isn't because we're doing anything different this year," Ryan said when asked about the road record this season. "We won a few last year…It's just trying to make sure that you have a chance when there's five minutes to go.
"Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't."
UW is 19-0 in all games this season when tied or leading with five minutes remaining. Two of those games were at a neutral site and six were road games.
"It's just our guys being committed to giving ourselves a chance," Ryan said. "That is the only way you can get anything done on the road."

Left Holding the Baby; HOW OUR SCHOOLS ARE ATTACKING SCOURGE OF UNWANTED TEENAGE PREGNANCY
Parkes, Diane, Birmingham Evening Mail (England)
Television viewers are shocked when a 13-year-old girl becomes pregnant in Coronation Street, but it is only a case of soaps mimicking life. The West Midlands has one of the country's worst teenage pregnancy rates. Women's Editor DIANE PARKES looks at attempts to cut the number of gymslip mums.
ALL the other pupils are laughing as 15-year-old Daniella tries to show 'dad' Dil how to change a nappy.
Dad is looking in horror as she explains all about it. Dad did not want to be in the house changing a nappy, his plans for the night had involved partying with friends - but such are the responsibilities of parenthood.
Daniella is a student volunteer in the drama 'Holding the Baby' being performed by Birmingham-based Catalyst Theatre Group at Langley High School in Oldbury.
She is trying to show the group of fellow pupils how teenage mums and dads should communicate if they are to take joint responsibility of their baby.
The 90-minute drama session with Catalyst involves the youngsters in watching professional actors, role-playing, changing the story and discussing the pressures on teenagers where sex and parenthood is concerned.
In their discussion sessions they frankly look at the pressures on young people and the factors which result in them being left holding the baby.
But, as Catalyst director Steve Ball says: "This is not finger wagging. It's about providing young people with accurate information and experience so they can make their own choices.
"This programme aims to challenge the glamorous image in the media of having a baby. We want young people to see the reality of having a family.
"The experience takes a participatory approach. There is a Chinese proverb which says 'I hear I forget, I see I remember, I do I understand' and that is our approach. We hope that by participating they will understand the issues."
'Holding the Baby' has been touring schools in Birmingham for ten years and is now taking on Sandwell.
Steve adds: "These are very sensitive issues but by using fiction in this way we allow them to be explored. It is easier talking about it when it is fiction than when we are talking about real people they know.
That can inhibit what they want to say. Using fiction gives teachers and young people the chance to talk freely about being pregnant at 15 and all the issues that come with it."
Langley is a typical inner city senior school. Its pupils face the issues being discussed in the play - what age is the right age to start sexual relationships? At what stage in a relationship is it acceptable? What form of protection should you take? What part does alcohol play in your decisions? Who do you talk to when things go wrong? How supportive are your parents?
Like it or not, they are issues faced by our young people today - and getting them talking about it is a way of helping them think through all aspects of the picture.
School deputy head Maria Satchwell says: "This drama will enhance the personal and social health programme already taking place in the school. It has been an excellent way of approaching the subject. These are issues that we address in the school and this is a way of seeing it in a real life situation."
And the students know only too well how much a part of life sexuality becomes.
Laura Harris, aged 14, says: "My boyfriend's mum had a baby and I help out with that so I know it is really hard work. I wouldn't want to have a baby until I was 23 because I would want to have my life first.
"I think there is pressure on girls because boys are always saying you should do it but you shouldn't do anything until you want to."
Coming from a family of eight, 14-year-old Denise Tookey also has her own experience of caring for children.
"I want to have children but I wouldn't want them until I was older. …

I love the new design of Jquery UIs (the mobile one). So, even on a project that is not targeted to mobile environment I want to have some elements from the library.
The problem is that the lib needs to instantiate itself from a page scope (
data-role=page) and therefore alter dozen root styles, events and aspects of the entire page. I just want some buttons, forms and colapsable.. in specific pages.
Some of the behaviour can be overwritten within
mobileinit event but the most part cant be stopped.
So, the question is: is there a simple way to instantiate jquery-mobile ui elements or to have a cleaner init page?

Rainy Days is an exciting story driven map for the first person shooter Crysis. It thrusts players into an exciting story driven mod with teamfights and rain scenario. Our dream was to build a map like it existed in our fantasy, it was a hard way but I think in a few months we are going to release it :D
The editor files of Rainy days which allows you to open the map in the Sandbox.
With our .Cry files you're able to open the mod in the editor, to take a look at our maps or just to play it in the editor or to modify it for yourself.
I hope this is a help for beginning modders, so they can see how we did some things. And if you ever find a way to improve things in Rainy Days, please don't hesitate providing them to us :)
IMPORTANT: Before you copy the files into the folders, you have to rename the two existing "terraintexture.pak" into "level.pak", overwrite the "filelist.xml " with the new version of the download.

IN Petersburg at that time a complicated struggle was being carried on with greater heat than ever in the highest circles, between the parties of Rumyantsev, the French, Maria Fëdorovna, the Tsarevich, and others, drowned as usual by the buzzing of the Court drones. But the calm luxurious life of Petersburg, concerned only about phantoms and reflections of real life, went on in its old way, and made it hard, except by a great effort, to realize the danger and the difficult position of the Russian people. There were the same receptions and balls, the same French theatre, the same Court interests and service interests and intrigues as usual. Only in the very highest circles were attempts made to keep in mind the difficulties of the actual position. Stories were whispered of how differently the two Empresses* behaved in these difficult circumstances. The Empress Maria, concerned for the welfare of the charitable and educational institutions under her patronage, had given directions that they should all be removed to Kazan, and the things belonging to these institutions had already been packed up. The Empress Elisabeth, however, when asked what instructions she would be pleased to give -- with her characteristic Russian patriotism had replied that she could give no directions about State institutions, for that was the affair of the Sovereign, but as far as she personally was concerned she would be the last to quit Petersburg.
At Anna Pavlovna's on the 26th of August, the very day of the battle of Borodino, there was a soirée, the chief feature of which was to be the reading of a letter from his Lordship the Bishop when sending the Emperor an icon of the Venerable Sergius. It was regarded as a model of ecclesiastical, patriotic eloquence. Prince Vasili himself, famed for his elocution, was to read it. (He used to read at the Empress's.) The art of his reading was supposed to lie in rolling out the words, quite independently of their meaning, in a loud and sing-song voice alternating between a despairing wail and a tender murmur, so that the wail fell quite at random on one word and the murmur on another. This reading, as was always

From any angle, Maritimo's Aegean 60 'oozes' style and flair. - Aegean 60
Maritimo's latest creation, the stunning Aegean 60, was to be the company's much anticipated World Release at the recent Sydney International Boat Show.
Sadly, it didn't happen.
The reason for its non-appearance is easy to discover – its creator, Bill Barry-Cotter is, as most people, particularly Maritimo owners, are well aware, is an absolute perfectionist.
Nothing leaves the Maritimo yard unless every detail meets Barry-Cotter's expectations.
So it was with the Aegean 60, but the wait is nearly over and the stylish new vessel is only a week or two from its unveiling.
Believe it or not, three have already been sold.
The Aegean 60 (the A60 for short) is essentially the incredibly successful Cabriolet 60 (or C60) with a smoothly stylised flying bridge added to its superstructure.
Hull, engines, accommodation, fuel and water capacity, everything is identical to the Cabriolet 60 except for the open flying bridge.
Surprisingly, despite the fact that three sales have been confirmed prior to hull #1 being launched, Maritimo sales and marketing manager, Peter Jenkins, believes the C60 version will outsell the A60.
'At this stage, I predict seven sales out of 10 will favour the C60,' he said.
The Aegean 60 boasts a length overall of 18.8-metres (61'7') with a spacious 5.3-metre (17'4') beam.
Worth waiting for - the stylish Maritimo Aegean 60 has already created demand. - Aegean 60
She carries 5600-litres (1480 gallons) of fuel, 800-litres (210 gallons) of freshwater and has a holding tank capacity of 300-litres (80 gallons).
The vessel tips the scales at 27-tonnes.
As is the case with the C60, the A60 accommodations are simply superb.
The master stateroom, situated amidships, is an absolute highlight, spacious and luxurious and boasting a gorgeous en-suite.
Another double stateroom is forward with two other cabins featuring upper and lower berths on each side.
The main saloon is beautifully done, offering unobstructed all-round vision, custom furnishings and upholstery, sheer class, all the way.
Standard power for the boat is provided by dual Caterpillar C12 diesels, each delivering 715 horsepower and giving the A60 a fuel efficient 25 knots-plus cruising speed.
The flying bridge is open, though no doubt someone may seek to add a soft top for added protection.
Appearance, of course, is a matter of opinion, but the A60 to my mind looks startlingly modern, highly stylish and with its identical hull maintains the overall profile and performance already proven by the C60.
In conclusion, I guess it's just a case of 'Bill Barry-Cotter strikes again.'

The Bucs Beat Their Demons, But Can They Beat the Raiders?
The Red Sea has split again. The meek have inherited the earth. Miracle of all miracles, the Bucs are going to the Super Bowl.
Tampa Bay fans have waited through 27 years of mostly woeful Buccaneers football to hear those words, so let's give their hometown columnists some space to bask in the glory of the Bucs' 27-10 defeat of the Philadelphia Eagles. "It was early evening, and the art of fiction was as dead as the Philadelphia Eagles and their arthritic ball yard. In the last football game at Veterans Stadium, the Bucs burned the place to the ground, along with every demon that ever haunted them," writes Martin Fennelly in the Tampa Tribune. "The National Football Conference champions' buses roared to life. The horns would be pounded all the way to the Philadelphia airport, a honking brotherly reminder to Eagles fans that their city did not belong to them until the Bucs handed it back."
The Bucs took their final death grip on Philly when cornerback Ronde Barber grabbed a Donovan McNabb-hurled ball and ran it back 92 yards for the game's last score. It was the clinching TD in a rather ho-hum game, but St. Petersburg Times columnist Gary Shelton makes the moment soar. "Barber had the ball, and he was gone, and by the time he had reached midfield, someone had turned the volume off. There was no noise, no breath, no hope," Mr. Shelton writes. "The final yards of the journey bordered on the surreal, and as he ran, even Barber noticed the deathly quiet. If he had listened, however, he might have heard one voice in the distance, the voice of a man losing it a little. 'Run!' general manager Rich McKay screamed in the press box, his fist pounding the table. 'Don't stop running! Don't ever stop running!' In memory, he never will."
Fix Picks Review
The Fixers didn't dazzle in their picks for the conference championship games. Carl went one for two, while Jace got shut out (and couldn't care less, since his beloved Bucs advanced despite his utter lack of faith).
On the readers' side, the Fix's Skybox of Champions is getting crowded. Twelve of 40 football forecasters chose the winning combination of Tampa Bay and Oakland; we're opening the box to the four who did best at predicting the victory margins. From the top: Tim Woodard, Stephen Acciani, Andrew Lobo and Herb Hundt. A special Fix salute to Mr. Woodard, who picked the Bucs by 13 and the Raiders by 21. He foresaw the two games as the dull mismatches they were.
Should you wish to enter the skybox for all-you-can-eat nachos (or, more likely, less-fattening prizes), keep watching this space for the details about our Super Bowl contest.
In Bucs' fans memories, that is. They and the notorious Raiders rooters can cherish these last two weeks of football, but those of us who prefer the historical kind of pirates must concede that of the six playoff games after the thrilling wild-card round, five were duds, including the four romps by the Raiders and Bucs. And while their gridiron excellence may inspire hope of a thrilling Super Bowl, we should recall that when the St. Louis Rams haven't been involved in recent year's championships, the games have mostly stunk. (Denver-Green Bay in 1998 is the noteworthy exception.)
At least we can be grateful for the mercifully reduced six days of pre-Super Bowl hype and played-out storylines for the big game. Get ready to hear a lot about the Pirate Bowl, and the face-off between Jon Gruden and his old team. Skip Bayless, the San Jose Mercury News columnist, gets a good jump on both. "Thank you, Roman Numeral gods. Thank you for 'Chucky's' old team vs. 'Chucky's' new team. Thank you for new Coach Bill 'the Thrill' Callahan's Raiders vs. Jon 'Chucky' Gruden's Tampa Bay." And, later: "Shiver me timbers: Here comes a crew of orange-clad pirates, sabers in teeth, who think they can shut down silver-and-black pirates who have plundered just about every defense they've faced."
Enjoy these clever images now, while they're still somewhat fresh, but heed this warning, sports fans: Unless you duck for cover from Super Bowl coverage, by week's end you'll be humming the lyrics, "And it is, it is a glorious thing to be a Pirate King!" from Gilbert and Sullivan's "Pirates of Penzance."
Over in the San Francisco Chronicle, Ray Ratto is even further ahead of the media horde with his metacolumn on the blanket Gruden coverage to come. "That's how the Super Bowl works. Find a story and beat it into a thin, gray paste," Mr. Ratto writes. "And with no bye week this year, only six days before the game itself, there's no time to start beating the dead horse like the present." It's a little scary when the players understand how the game works, and knowingly play along. Raiders back Tyrone Wheatley tells Mr. Ratto: "Some of us will give in to you guys, and we'll say some stuff. We're ready for that. We know you'll have to go out and get some more legal pads to get it all down, because it's a great story for you guys. But it's not about a coach against a coach. It's about winning a championship."
It's also about strategies and counterstrategies, on-field matchups and mismatches, strikes and counterstrikes. It's football, ladies and gentlemen, something that Messrs. Gruden and Callahan won't be playing Sunday. Should you care to focus on the men who will play the game, the Los Angeles Times's Mike Penner has helpfully pointed out two of the more interesting elements: The matchup of two journeymen quarterbacks who have gotten better with age, and will finally play in their first Super Bowl; and the matchup of the Raiders' short, quick-strike passing game against the defense best suited to shut it down.
Six days and counting. Let the hype begin, and let's hope at least for some of it to focus on the game at hand.
* * *
Twenty-eight years and counting. The drought at the Australian Open continues, as Lleyton Hewitt blew a chance to become the first male Aussie to win the tournament since Mark Edmondson in 1976. Worst of all, the usually hypercompetitive Mr. Hewitt watched with resignation Monday as ace after ace flew off Younes El Aynaoui's racquet and past his. "... Perhaps the most disappointing thing about the No. 1 seed's surprising exit was that he went down without a fight," laments Richard Hinds in the Sydney Morning Herald. "At least not the sort of fight we have come to expect from a man who usually looks like he would wrestle a vowel off his granny rather than lose at Scrabble."
That opens the draw for Americans Andy Roddick and Andre Agassi, the ageless one. Mr. Agassi's mane, game and family life have changed somewhat over the years, but he keeps contending in Grand Slam tournaments. Nowadays, his wife Steffi Graf, merely the best female tennis player ever, watches Mr. Agassi play and offers encouragement and some tips.
"It is an interesting concept. You take your wife to work with you, and she not only sits inspecting everything you do, but also occasionally shouts things at you while you're doing them," writes Martin Johnson in the Daily Telegraph (U.K.). "It works rather better for a tennis player than a bank clerk, as piercing cries of 'great service!' while you're pushing a handful of fivers through the grille at Barclays probably wouldn't go down too well with the customers."
Speaking of fivers, the women's tour could use a few million of those. The Williams sisters' dominance has proven to be too much of a good thing for the sport: As Venus and Serena soak up the endorsement dollars and consider ditching the racquet game for other pursuits, the tour is getting poor. The Observer's Will Buckley draws an analogy any Online Journal reader should appreciate: "The Williamses, having kick-started the boom, are now responsible for it being on the verge of going bust. Tennis grew rich off the Williams sisters, now the Williams sisters are growing rich without tennis. The sport resembles a fund manager who invested heavily in dotcoms."

Football's officiating system is under scrutiny. Critics scream that the whistleblowers should work full-time, that refs need better training in the subtleties of the rules, and that teams of zebras should be kept together. Questionable or downright bad calls have cost games crucial points in games with championship implications.
This isn't American football we're talking about -- it's soccer, which was tagged with the taint of bad officiating during the World Cup (the Fix wrote about the worst of the refs back in October). Italians got a fair bit of guff for their over-the-top outcry over the bad calls that cost them big. But (to switch brands of football), you'll recall that it was the New York Post that ran the headline "Robbed" to decry the blown call that cost the New York Giants a shot at beating the San Francisco 49ers in their wild-card-round playoff game.
Officiating could use some upgrades in football of all types, and other sports, too -- and improved professional standards and technology can help. (The Fix recently featured an item about the possible advent of robotic soccer refs). But do we really want our refs to be perfect? Maybe we need them to be good enough to make most outcomes fair, but bad enough to be scapegoats in defeat. Call it the Goldilocks school of officiating reform.
Washington Post columnist Sally Jenkins is honest enough to explore her feelings toward refs, ugly as they are. "Nothing arouses more blind and unreasoning hostility in me than someone in a striped shirt with a whistle in his mouth or a flag in his pocket," Ms. Jenkins writes. "This is not the most responsible stance I have ever taken, I know." Why might she feel this way? She checks with the experts. Sports historian Chuck Korr cites the scapegoat theory: "If 'we' lost, it's somebody else's fault. Officials are the all-purpose excuse for our own incompetence."
Mr. Korr also gives us cause to stop worrying and learn to love the refs. He tells Ms. Jenkins the story of soccer refs who volunteered in a prison off Cape Town, South Africa. Even there, officials were hated with passion, by men with long memories. Why did the men volunteer? "They replied that someone had to do it, otherwise there would have been no games on Robben Island."
In that spirit, let's give the refs a little more love. Hate the call, even hate flawed systems that create fouled-up officiating, but love the ref.
Perhaps no one has it tougher than ACC men's basketball refs. "You're expected to be stoic. But coaches aren't. In fact, coaches are expected to perform," writes Tom Sorensen in the Charlotte Observer. "They yell, insult and cajole. The idea is to intimidate you enough to attain an edge."
The Washington Post's Jason La Canfora reserves the lion's share of his zebra love for hockey officials. "It is routine for these men, 14 of whom are enshrined in the Hall of Fame, to receive a host of stitches between periods and race back to the ice. Getting struck by pucks and sticks is a regular occurrence," Mr. La Canfora writes in his stirring appreciation of the striped ones. "Taking a misplaced uppercut to the face when breaking up a fight is a right of passage."

Some quick links from a busy weekend in sports:
Michelle Kwan showed grace and skill in capturing her seventh U.S. figure-skating championship in Dallas on Saturday. Sadly, few were there to see it. Fort Worth Star-Telegram columnist Gil LeBreton was at the American Airlines Center earlier in the competition, and as he looked around at all the empty seats, he wondered if the sport was still suffering from the Salt Lake City judging scandal.
Maybe all those missing were at the Comcast Center in College Park, Md., to watch the University of Maryland vanquish archrival Duke and give the nation's No. 1 team its first loss of the season. The upset win came amid "a red sea of insanity," as the Baltimore Sun's Laura Vescey describes it.
In the first matchup of Yao and Shaq, the duel went to the Los Angeles Lakers' Shaquille O'Neal, but the game went to the Houston Rockets' Yao Ming. Steve Francis dominated the game with a career-best 44 points. Mr. Yao, though, had Houston Chronicle columnist Fran Blinebury reaching for the history books, ready to append the precocious rookie's name to a long line of great Houston big men.
LeBron James is old school compared with Malcolm Pope, Jr., an eighth-grader who is in the midst of a high-school recruiting war in the New York City area, and is already on the radar screen of colleges and, of course, sneaker companies. Kristie Ackert has the seemingly tall tale of young Malcolm in the New York Daily News.

November 25, 2015
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- A Sevier County man has been charged with possession of drugs and drug paraphernalia after an undercover investigation led officers to his home near Price Way in Sevierville.
Lee Harold Arwood, 62, has been charged with possession of marijuana for resale and possession of drug paraphernalia. During a search, officers found approximately three and a half pounds of marijuana and an undisclosed amount of cash.
Arwood also faced similar charges back in July; he was free on bond from that previous arrest and on community corrections with TDOC when he was taken into custody today.
Arwood was araigned before a magistrate and a $200,000 bond has been set; a preliminary hearing date will be set.

the only way she will survive is she blows a big wig Hollywood producer or actor and hooks up wih him . not just one bj. AND do a lot of nudity and soft core sex senes aka Nicole Kidman.
Orrrrrrrrrr she has a lot of talent and will survive because she's a good actress and doesn't need to give back room blowies to keep her career alive?
Addendum: Like Lohan.
You got that right! I suspect she will continue to do very well in showbiz, despite the ending of the Harry Potty series. She certainly has the looks and she doesn't seem to mind showing skin.
At least she was smart enough to wear them. The rest of hollywood should take note…
