Turkish Current-Account Deficit Biggest 2012 Risk, Anatolia Says
Turkey's biggest risk in 2012 will be financing its current-account deficit, not slowing growth, according to Ergun Ozen, chief executive of Turkiye Garanti Bankasi AS, the state-run Anatolia news agency said.
Financial resources will decrease due to Europe's debt crisis, Anatolia cited Ergun as saying.
Turkish banks will struggle to maintain profitability in 2012 after government and central bank moves to slow credit growth, raise reserve ratio requirements and cap fees and commissions on some banking products, Ergun said, according to Anatolia.
Turkey has 125 bank branches per one million citizens compared with a euro zone average of 560 branches per million, Ergun was quoted as saying.

Red Earth Honored One dedicated to preserving tribal culture
From Friday's Weekend Look section of The Oklahoman.
Red Earth Honored One dedicated to preserving tribal culture
Gordon Yellowman Sr. becomes the fifth Cheyenne & Arapaho artist to be named the Honored One.
Growing up, Gordon Yellowman Sr. always knew what he was getting in his Christmas presents.
"Every Christmas, I'd get art supplies. I never got toys. I already knew what I'd get for Christmas. Later on, you know, it was 'Why don't I get toys?' And it was my parents' way to … support my art. Today, I thank them for it because if it wasn't for that, I probably wouldn't have pursued my art," he said.
A member of the Cheyenne & Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma, Yellowman, 52, of El Reno, will be recognized as the 2010 Red Earth Festival Honored One this weekend during the 24th annual Red Earth Native American Cultural Festival at the Cox Convention Center.
Each year, the Red Earth board of directors selects an American Indian master visual artist as the Honored One based on nominations from fellow artists. Past recipients include such acclaimed artists as Allan Houser, Mike Larsen and Doc Tate Nevaquaya.
"Gordon is an outstanding artist, citizen, and an Oklahoma role model for all people," Mary Jo Watson, director of the University of Oklahoma's School of Art and Art History, wrote in nominating Yellowman. "One of the most important aspects of his life is his service to his tribe and the greater Oklahoma Indian community."
His late father, Everett H. Yellowman, was principal chief of the traditional peacemakers of the Cheyenne known as the Council of Forty-Four. At age 16, the younger Yellowman was named a Cheyenne Peace Chief. He now serves as one of the four principal chiefs of his tribe.
He becomes the fifth Cheyenne & Arapaho Honored One, following Archie Blackowl, Dick West, Charles Pratt and Harvey Pratt. Yellowman remembers West visiting his father and going over his paintings to get the accurate history and stories behind what he was depicting in his work.
"I think of those gentlemen of caliber as artists who were extraordinary and made many contributions not only to the state of Oklahoma but to this world as well with their art. … Those men were true artists, true masters, and for me to be recognized with their name is certainly an honor," Yellowman said.
"The gift that we have as artists, we share that through education and we share that through our media and our form of art. Not only are we sharing it, we're preserving true stories of the cultural ways of our lives."
Preserving his heritage is a driving passion in Yellowman's life. He works as the language coordinator for Cheyenne & Arapaho education department, helping teach the tribal language through children's programs and college courses. He teaches as an adjunct professor in the art department at the Cheyenne & Arapaho Tribal College at Southwestern Oklahoma State University in Weatherford. He also is working on a bachelor's degree in art history through OU's Native American Studies program.
"You can't have language without culture, you can't have art without culture, you can't have traditions without culture. The art is a very
significant part of the culture, and through that, it's evolving into the whole representation of the people, of the nation. That art reflects the beauty of that nation," Yellowman said.
As an artist, he depicts traditional Cheyenne scenes in a flat ledger art style, so called because ledger books were a common source of paper for Plains Indian artists in the 19th century. But he incorporates modern hues of teal, purple and pink into his work.
"My art I think is very unique because I do a lot of research. I research Cheyenne ledger art and Arapaho ledger art because I know that back then, those artists were actually developing Polaroids of what was happening at that time period, from about the late 1870s on to the 1900s," he said. "I incorporate the old-style ledger art into the contemporary style that I use, and I create my own ledger style. … I appreciate the colors that we have now because colors are a representation of our culture, our ways of life."
Red Earth President Jonna Kauger Kirschner said Yellowman's great artistic talent and dedication to mentoring other artists makes him a wonderful selection as Honored One
"He brings the tradition and the contemporary together. We sometimes have a stereotypical image of what Native American art is. Yes, while it may have started out as flat and more into ledger drawings, I think Gordon shows how you take that traditional art and you bring it into a contemporary visual image. He's just very talented," she said.

Residence permit for studies
Students from outside the EU/EEA require a residence permit to study in Sweden. The authority responsible for issuing residence permits in Sweden is the Swedish Migration Agency. A residence permit is granted for a maximum of one year at a time. Read below for more information about the application procedure.
Please choose the category below that applies to you:
Non EU/EEA citizen - first time applicant
Non EU/EEA citizen - extension of permit
Non EU/EEA citizen - after completed studies
Residence permit for Non-EU/EEA first time applicant
Students from outside EU/EEA must apply for a residence permit for studies from the Swedish Migration Agency. You can read more about how to apply on their website. Applications for a residence permit can under no circumstances be submitted after entering Sweden.
The following documents are required:
- A copy of a valid passport
- Letter of Acceptance/Notification of Selection Results as proof of admission to KTH and the duration of your studies
- Proof that you can support yourself during your stay in Sweden. A minimum of SEK 8010 per month for the entire study period is required (further details here)
- Proof of payment of the residence permit application fee (SEK 1000)
- If the duration of your studies is 1 year or less: a valid health insurance for the entire period of studies
Make sure to extend your passport if it is about to expire — you cannot obtain a permit for longer than your passport's period of validity.
Biometric data
The Migration Agency requires that you leave your biometric data (i.e. fingerprints and photograph) to be stored in the residence permit card. You have to be photographed and fingerprinted for each new residence permit card that is issued (extensions included). If you are in Sweden you contact the Migration Agency's local permit unit. If you are abroad, contact the embassy in your country of residence. Visit Sweden abroad to find the Swedish Embassy or Consulate closest to you.
After you have been photographed and fingerprinted at the embassy your residence permit (UT) card takes around four weeks to arrive. For information about how to receive your UT card, contact the embassy.
Biometrics after arrival in Sweden
Citizens of certain countries can leave their biometric information upon arrival in Stockholm at the Swedish Migration Agency's permit unit in Solna. You have to book a visit at the Migration Agency to do this. Book a visit at the Migration Agency here.
When visiting the Migration Agency remember to bring your passport and the following information:
- Case number (find it on your residence permit decision from the Swedish Migration Board)
- Given (first) name & family name
- Your address in Sweden (including 4 digit apartment number)
Extension of residence permit for Non-EU/EEA citizens
When to apply
A residence permit for studies is granted for no more than 13 months at a time so if you are staying in Sweden for longer than this you will have to apply for an extension of your residence permit. You should apply at the earliest 30 days before your current permit expires.

Dallas, TX (Sports Network) - David Perron registered two goals, including the game-winner, and an assist, as the St. Louis Blues edged the Dallas Stars, 4-3, at American Airlines Center.
Chris Stewart and Wade Redden also tallied for the Blues, who improved to 4-1-0 on the season. Jaroslav Halak made 20 saves.
Michael Ryder, Tomas Vincour and Ryan Garbutt scored for Dallas, which played without Jaromir Jagr (back) and Derek Roy (groin).
Cristopher Nilstorp, making his second NHL start, departed in the third period with a groin injury after allowing four goals on 29 shots. Kari Lehtonen stopped all three shots he faced in relief.
Jagr, Roy and Nilstorp are all day-to-day.
The Blues scored three times in the second period, erasing a 2-1 deficit.
Perron circled the Dallas cage and stickhandled around a Stars player before beating Nilstorp and tying the game at 10:51.
St. Louis grabbed the lead with its forecheck. Stewart scored after Patrik Berglund outworked Dallas defenseman Trevor Daley for the puck along the boards and fed him for a one-timer at 16:32.
Perron struck again with 16 seconds remaining.
"I thought Perron was head and shoulders the best player on the ice," said Blues head coach Ken Hitchcock.
Garbutt lit the lamp 2:24 into the third period, but the Stars were unable to complete the rally.
"I think the second was our downfall," said Stars forward Brenden Morrow.
Redden put the Blues up 1-0 5:31 into the game with a one-timer from the point past a screened Nilstorp.
Vincour answered 26 seconds later by banging home his own rebound. Ryder broke the tie on a power play, potting his 200th career goal at the 12:40 mark of the first period.
Redden last scored an NHL goal on March 18, 2010 ... The Stars have played
five consecutive one-goal games to begin the season.
Pope Francis' visit to Philadelphia in September has altered the date of the Penn-Villanova football game.
Kyle Busch won Sunday's road course race in Sonoma, California, but he still has a long way to go to become eligible for a spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.
NFL players have a very short shelf life to make significant amounts of money so it's tough to fault anyone who has outperformed a contract when they go knocking on the door to ask for more.
Pete Mackanin will remain interim manager of the Philadelphia Phillies for the remainder of the season, the team announced Tuesday.
The Oklahoma City Thunder have reportedly retained restricted free agent forward Kyle Singler with a five-year contract extension.
The Detroit Red Wings signed veteran forward Brad Richards a one-year contract on Wednesday.

No. 30 SMU 34 ... Texas Tech 27, November 13, 1982
At the time:
No. 2 SMU
was in its heyday, coming into the game on a 13-game winning streak and
a 9-0 record led by the Pony Express, Eric Dickerson and Craig James.
Texas Tech wasn't doing too much with a 4-5 record, but had beaten SMU
six straight times.
The setup: A blocked punt led to a 16-yard James touchdown giving
the Mustangs a 24-10 lead late in the third quarter, but Texas Tech was
able to bounce back on a 16-yard touchdown pass to Buzz Tatom. One
71-yard Anthony Hutchinson touchdown run later, and the Red Raiders tied
it up. After an SMU field goal, Hutchinson was able to make a big fourth
down play leading Tech to a march down to the Mustang 11 as the clock
was running down. In came Ricky Gann for a 28-yard field goal and a
27-27 tie with :17 to play. With no overtime, the Mustang winning streak
appeared to be over.
The ending: Worried about a kickoff return for a touchdown, Texas
Tech decided to squib it to run down time. SMU head coach Bobby Collins
was prepared and sent in defensive back Blane Smith to field the kick
and throw it across the field to receiver Bobby Leach who would, in
theory, have a wall of blockers to run behind. Smith was in position,
but he had a hard time fielding the ball bobbling it before chucking it
backwards to Leach a split-second before being blasted by Red Raiders.
Leach grabbed it off the turf on the nine and didn't have anyone in
front of him going 91 yards for the touchdown and the 34-27 win.
How they ended up: Following the "Miracle on Fourth Avenue", the
Mustangs tied Arkansas 17-17 barely missing a win on a short 52-yard
field goal attempt. Even so, they still won the SWC title and a spot in
the Cotton Bowl beating Pittsburgh and Dan Marino 7-3 to finish 11-0-1
and second in both polls. Texas Tech lost to Houston 24-7 to finish 4-7.
No. 29 LSU 17 ... Ole Miss 16,
November 4, 1972
At the time:
No. 6 LSU
was 6-0 and on a ten-game wining streak against an Ole Miss team that
broke a three-game losing streak with a 31-7 win over Vanderbilt to get
to 4-3. This was supposed to be a walk in the park for the Tigers with
the big game against Alabama coming up the following week.
The setup: LSU had a hard time getting going, down 16-10 early in
the fourth quarter as Rebel QB Norris Weese ran for a touchdown and
Steve Lavinghouze kicked three field goals. Coming in for a fourth field
goal attempt, Lavinghouze missed a 27-yarder that would've put Ole Miss
up 19-10. Tiger QB Bert Jones took a long sack trying to convert on
fourth down and Ole Miss appeared to have things wrapped up. But the
Rebel offense couldn't do anything from the LSU 45 and gave the ball
back to Jones on his own 20 with just over three minutes to play.
The ending: Jones started off the drive with a long completion, but
he faced a fourth and one in Ole Miss territory. A six-yard pickup gave
the Tigers the first down, but the clock was quickly ticking down. With
ten seconds to play, LSU had it on the Ole Miss 20. The Rebels were
nailed with a pass interference call putting it on the ten with four
seconds to play. With what appeared to be one final chance, Jones
misfired on a throw to the end zone, but miraculously, the Death Valley
clock showed one second to play. The celebrating, and stunned, Rebels
had to gear up for one more play. Jones looked at his three receivers,
but the play was called for his running back, Brad Davis, to run out of
the backfield and to the back of the end zone. Jones didn't look at
Davis until the last second so the play could develop, but he threw a
duck. It got to Davis, who had a hard time seeing the ball in the
lights, bobbled it, and was knocked out of bounds. The official signaled
touchdown triggering a mass of Tiger fans running on the field with the
extra point still to come. Several minutes later, Rusty Jackson hit the
extra point for the 17-16 win.
How they ended up: Ole Miss never got over the clock gaffe as the
1973 media guide read Ole Miss 16, LSU 10+7. The following week, the
Tigers lost 35-21 to Alabama. They ended the year with a 24-17 loss to
Tennessee in the Bluebonnet Bowl to finish 9-2-1 ranking 11th in the AP
and 10th in the UPI. Ole Miss split its final two games to finish 5-5.
No. 28 Michigan 27 ... Indiana 21, October 27, 1979
At the time:
Lee Corso's
Indiana team was a solid 5-2 with a loss to a great Ohio State team and
a 17-16 heartbreaker to Colorado. Michigan was ranked 10th in the nation
with a 6-1 record with the one loss coming in a 12-10 thriller to Notre
The setup: Michigan was having a rough Homecoming. The Hoosiers
got up 14-7 at the end of the first half and knocked out Michigan
starting quarterback B.J. Dickey. However, the Wolverine power game
kicked into high gear with Lawrence Reid running for a 50-yard score and
Butch Woolfolk scoring from two yards out for a 21-14 lead. IU had one
last drive in the final minutes of the game.
The ending: Hoosier QB Tim Clifford connected with Nate Lundy for
54 yards before throwing a three-yard touchdown pass to Dave Harangody
with less than a minute remaining. Down by one, Corso decided to pass up
the golden opportunity for the win and went for the tie, getting the
extra point for an apparent 21-21 final. Michigan didn't do much with
the ball to start its final drive, only getting to its 31 with :36 to
play. On fourth and one, Michigan head coach Bo Schembechler didn't take
the Corso way out. Instead, he went for it, and got it with a four-yard
Butch Woolfolk run. Even so, IU almost had a shot to get in a position
for the monumental upset after Tim Wilbur picked off UM backup
quarterback John Wangler, but couldn't get his foot in bounds, giving
the Wolverines life with :14 left on its own 44 and no timeouts. A
completed pass moved the ball to midfield on a pass to Reid, who threw
it backwards out of bounds to stop the clock. Six seconds remained.
Michigan freshman Anthony Carter ran a post pattern to the 25, catching
the ball just as he was popped by two IU defenders. The collision left
both Hoosiers on the ground and Carter breaking away for the end zone.
Almost tackled just before crossing the goal line, Carter found his way
in for a 27-21 win.
How they ended up: Michigan beat Wisconsin 54-0 the week after
and then crashed with three straight losses by a total of nine points.
Bo's boys finished 8-4 with a 17-15 loss to North Carolina in the Gator
Bowl and a No. 18 ranking in the AP and 19 ranking in the UPI Poll.
Indiana bounced back to win three of its final four games finishing up
by handing BYU its only loss with a 38-37 Holiday Bowl victory. Corso's
team was 8-4 and ranked 16th in the UPI poll and 19th in the AP.
No. 27 Notre Dame 35 ... Houston 34,
Cotton Bowl, January 1, 1979
At the time:
Notre Dame
and Joe Montana were 8-3 coming off a dramatic, last-second, 27-25 loss
to No. 3 USC to break an eight-game winning streak. Houston, led by the
Bill Yeoman veer offense, was 9-2 and ranked fourth winning nine of its
last ten games.
The setup: Houston dominated early but was only up 20-12 at
halftime in the bitter cold Cotton Bowl. Montana, who went one-for-11 to
start the game, was suffering from the flu and wasn't helped by the
below-zero wind chills. At halftime, he had hypothermia needing
blankets, warm liquids, and famously, chicken soup to bring his body
temperature up. It didn't matter as the Cougars led 34-12 late with Tim
Koegel taking over at quarterback for the Irish. With less than seven
minutes to play, Houston was playing its backups, but the game got a
little interesting when the Irish scored on a 33-yard blocked punt for a
touchdown. Feeling a bit better, Montana came back in and threw the
two-point conversion to get within 34-20.
The ending: Montana got the ball back and marched the offense 61
yards in five plays ending with a two-yard touchdown run to get within
six. Houston's running attack couldn't heat back up and had to give the
ball back to the Irish, but the Cougar defense appeared to have saved
the day by forcing a Montana fumble, and a UH recovery, with 1:50 to
play. On fourth-and-inches with :34 to play, and with the punting game
struggling with the wind, Yeoman chose to go for it, but the Irish
defense held, getting the ball to Montana on the Cougar 29 with :28 to
play. Two plays later, the Irish had it on the eight with six seconds to
play. After one incompletion, there was time for one more play with just
two seconds to go. Montana ran to his right and found Kris Haines in the
corner of the end zone for a diving grab just before going out of
bounds. Joe Unis hit the extra point to cap a 23-point fourth quarter
and a 35-34 win.
How they ended up: Notre Dame finished 9-3 and seventh in the AP
poll and sixth in the UPI. Houston finished 9-3 ranking tenth in the AP
and 11th in the UPI
No. 26 Marshall 64 ... East Carolina 61, GMAC Bowl December 19, 2001
At the time:
Marshall, led by QB Byron Leftwich, was coming off a
disappointing MAC title game losing to Toledo 41-36, but had been on a
ten-game winning streak after starting the season with a 49-14 loss to
Florida. East Carolina, led by QB David Garrard, had an uneven 6-5
season closing out with two straight losses after winning four straight.
The setup: East Carolina was in command with a 38-8 halftime lead
with two Garrard touchdown runs and two defensive scores. Marshall came
out roaring in the second half with two interception returns for
touchdowns and two touchdown runs for a 28-point quarter, but was still
down 41-36 going into the fourth. A 55-yard Leonard Henry touchdown run
appeared to ice things for the Pirates, but a field goal got the Herd
close with Leftwich getting one more shot down 51-45.
The ending: Leftwich, who finished with 576 passing yards, was 80
yards away with less than a minute to play and with no time outs. On
fire, he got the Herd into position and then floated a ten-yard
touchdown pass to Darius Watts with seven seconds to play to tie it at
51 and only needing the extra point for the improbable win. One problem:
Curtis Head missed the extra point. East Carolina got new life, but the
defense didn't come through in the first overtime as Franklin Wallace
scored on a two-yard touchdown run. ECU's offense answered with a
25-yard Henry touchdown run. In the second OT, ECU had to settle for a
37-yard Kevin Miller field goal. With the door open, Leftwich busted
through with an eight-yard touchdown pass to Darius Watts for the 64-61
How they ended up: Despite the thrilling win and an 11-2 record,
Marshall didn't finish in the AP top 25, but it did rank 21st in the
Coaches' Poll. East Carolina finished 6-6. Leftwich and Garrard would
later be teammates on the Jacksonville Jaguars.
No. 25
Nebraska 45 … Missouri 38,
November 8, 1997
(Note: We bow to the will of the masses on this
one who convinced us this game, in fact, has to be included among the
all-time greatest endings and not just the greatest games.)
At the time: Nebraska was 8-0 and had won 18 of its last 19 games
during a dominating stretch. In four Big 12 games, the Huskers had
outscored their opponents 169-28, highlighted by a 56-26 win over a
Kansas State team that would finish 11-1. The defense had allowed just
seven points in the last three games. Missouri's offense had suddenly
taken off, scoring a total of 92 points in two straight road wins at
Oklahoma State and Colorado, but the Tigers were 6-3 and not appearing
to be too much of a threat to stop the Big Red Machine.
The setup: It was a wild game throughout with tremendous drives,
phenomenal quarterback play from Missouri's Corby Jones and Nebraska's
Scott Frost, and a temporary shower from a sprinkler that went off in
one of the end zones. The Tiger offense was all but unstoppable scoring
38 points after taking the lead on a 15-yard touchdown pass to Eddie
Brooks. There were the most allowed by a Nebraska team since a 45-21
loss to Georgia Tech in the 1991 Citrus Bowl, a span of 82 games, but
the Husker kept pace, helped by three Frost touchdown runs. Still, the
Tigers had a chance late to close things out, but had to punt the ball
away with just over a minute to play. Nebraska got the ball on its own
33 with 1:02 remaining.
The ending: Frost, not known for his passing, coolly and calmly
led the offense down the field, even shaking off a near interception,
but the mid-range passes only got the Huskers down to the Mizzou 12 with
seven seconds to play. With one final chance, Frost dropped back,
seemingly had all day to throw, and fired across the middle to Shevin
Wiggins, who was separated from the ball by Tiger defensive back Julius
Jones. The ball appeared to be headed for the ground, when at the last
possible second, Wiggins kicked the ball up in the air as he was falling
down, popping it up just enough for Matt Davison to come diving in to
make the grab and give the Huskers a chance to kick the extra point to
force overtime. Kris Brown nailed it, Frost ran for his fourth score of
the day on a 12-yard dash, and the Husker defense held, sacking Jones to
complete the miracle.
How they ended up: Michigan fans are the only ones who bristle at
the games ending as much as the Missouri faithful. Nebraska won its last
four games of the year, obliterating Texas A&M in the Big 12
championship and embarrassing Peyton Manning and Tennessee 42-17 in the
Orange Bowl to finish 13-0 and the USA Today/Coaches Poll national
title. Michigan finished first in the AP poll to split the title.
Missouri recovered to trounce lowly Baylor, but finished 7-5 after
losing to Colorado State in the Holiday Bowl.
No. 24 Syracuse 32 ... West Virginia 31,
November 21, 1987
At the time:
Syracuse, led by Heisman candidate QB Don McPherson, was
in the hunt for the national title with a 10-0 record, only needing to
beat West Virginia for an unbeaten regular season. West Virginia was 6-4
and had a chance to ruin the Orangemen dream.
The setup: McPherson and the Orangemen were getting all they
could handle from West Virginia freshman quarterback Major Harris, who
amassed 266 yards of total offense and ran for two touchdowns.
Mountaineer RB Undra Johnson had 119 yards on the way to a 31-10 lead
going into the fourth quarter. McPherson furiously rallied the team back
with two touchdowns, but it still appeared over with the West Virginia
running attack looking to run out the clock. The Orangmen D held, giving
McPherson one last shot.
The ending: With the Carrier Dome rocking, Syracuse moved the
ball to the Mountaineer 17 with a chance at one final play. McPherson
rifled a touchdown pass with no time left on the clock to make it 31-30
and a chance to get out with a tie by kicking the extra point. Instead,
head coach Dick MacPherson, with the national title in mind, chose to go
for two. McPherson optioned to his left and pitched the ball at the last
possible second to running back Michael Owens. With Mountaineer
linebacker Donnell Warren seemingly in a position to make the stop,
Owens sped to the pylon barely slipping across for the two-point
conversion and a 32-31 win to keep the dream season alive.
How they ended up: Despite being 11-0, Syracuse's chances for a
national title were slim with unbeatens Miami and Oklahoma playing in
the Orange Bowl. In the Sugar Bowl, Auburn head coach Pat Dye chose to
go for the 16-16 tie rather than try for the win, ending the Orangemen
season at 11-0-1 and ranked fourth in both polls. McPherson finished
second in the Heisman voting behind Notre Dame's Tim Brown. West
Virginia lost the Sun Bowl 35-33 to Oklahoma State to finish 6-6, but
the season proved to be a catalyst for Harris and the Mountaineers as
they went undefeated in the 1988 regular season, but lost in the Fiesta
Bowl to Notre Dame for the national title.
No. 23 Tennessee 28 ... Arkansas 24,
November 14, 1998
At the time:
No. 1
Tennessee was 8-0 and with a few classic wins early to be in the hunt
for the national title. Arkansas was also unbeaten at 8-0 coming off a
34-0 win over Ole Miss. This was played in front of 106,365 people in
UTs Neyland Stadium, the largest crowd and Arkansas team had ever played
in front of.
The setup: Arkansas stunned the huge orange crowd by jumping out
to a 21-3 lead. The Vols managed to get within 24-17 on a Tee Martin
touchdown run, but the offense was stuffed in the red zone on the next
drive forcing a field goal and a 24-20 Hog lead. But Arkansas couldn't
keep the pressure on getting a field goal blocked with just over six
minutes to play. Once again, the Arkansas defense stiffened to force a
punt, but UT's David Leaverton came through with a beauty to pin the
Hogs on their one-yard line. After driving out to their 41, the Hogs
needed to punt it away, but the snap flew over Chris Akin's head and was
booted through the end zone for a safety and a 24-22 Arkansas lead with
under three minutes to play.
The ending: Tennessee's offense couldn't do anything and had to
give it back to Arkansas. Appearing to be on its way to win by running
out the clock with 1:43 to go, QB Clint Stoerner went back to try to
pick up the first down to put the game on ice. Instead, he tripped and
lost the ball as he was trying to regain his balance. UT's Billy Ratliff
recovered the fumble on the Arkansas 43 to give the Vols a new life. It
then became the Travis Henry show as he ran five straight times,
finishing with 197 yards on the day, powering through for a one-yard
touchdown with :28 to play.
How they ended up: The following week, a down Hog team lost 22-21
to Mississippi State and ended up 9-3, ranked 16th in the AP poll and
17th in the Coaches' poll after losing 45-31 to Michigan in the Citrus
Bowl. Tennessee rolled the rest of the way winning its final four games
culminating with a 23-16 win over Florida State in the Fiesta Bowl for
the national championship.
No. 22 Michigan State 26 ... Michigan 24,
November 3, 2001
At the time:
Michigan overcame an early loss to Washington for a 6-1
record including a win over Illinois to be the favorite for the Big Ten
title. Michigan State suffered losses to Northwestern and Minnesota for
a 2-2 Big Ten record and was 4-2 overall.
The setup: The two star receivers made a lot of big plays as
Michigan's Marquis Walker, who ended up with nine catches for 150 yards,
caught touchdown passes from 14 and 32 yards out and MSU's Charles
Rogers, who caught six passes for 86 yards, made a 17-yard scoring grab.
But the day would belong to Spartan RB T.J. Duckett, who finished with
211 rushing yards and a two-yard rushing touchdown, and a Michigan
defense that sacked Jeff Smoker 12 times. Michigan was able to take a
24-20 lead on a 20-yard touchdown pass from John Navarre to Jermaine
Gonzalez with 4:44 to play. MSU got the ball back one more time with
2:09 to go.
The ending: Michigan State's final drive appeared to be dead
after a 4th and 16 pass from midfield fell incomplete, but Wolverine CB
Jeremy LeSueur was flagged for pass interference on Rogers. The
Wolverines were mad enough at that call, and later got nailed with a
flag for too many men on the field following a Spartan timeout, putting
MSU on the 12. LeSueur made amends by breaking up a touchdown pass to
Duckett with only :17 to play. Smoker was able to scramble down to the
Michigan two and immediately jumped up to spike the ball as time
appeared to have run out, or was flickering :01 on the clock depending
on which side you were on. Despite the screams of the Wolverine coaching
staff, there was one final play. Smoker dropped back and was looking for
anyone to get the ball to, while in the end zone, Duckett was
frantically waving his arms. A split second before getting flattened,
Smoker got the throw off in a jump ball for Duckett. The Spartan running
back was able to make the catch while being hit by Wolverine defenders
for the controversial 26-24 win. Despite the clock reading 0:00, there
was an argument that the extra point should've at least been tried as
Michigan could've returned a miracle play for two points, but the game
was over.
How they ended up: Michigan ended up losing to Ohio State on the
season's final game giving the Big Ten title to Illinois. Things didn't
get much better for Lloyd Carr's bunch with a 45-17 loss to Tennessee in
the Citrus Bowl to finish 8-4 and 20th in both polls. Michigan State
lost its next three games after the Michigan win before beating Missouri
55-7 and David Carr's Fresno State team 44-35 the Silicon Valley Bowl to
finish 7-5.
No. 21 USC 28 ... Oklahoma 24,
September 26, 1981
At the time:
It was No.
1 vs. No. 1 as Oklahoma, with a 37-20 win over Wyoming, was 1-0 ranked
tops in the AP poll vs. 2-0 USC, with an impressive 43-7 win over
Tennessee and a 21-0 victory over Indiana, holding the top spot in the
UPI poll.
The setup: Oklahoma's wishbone was running the ball at will, but
drive after drive after drive was stopped by fumbles with ten fumbles,
five of them lost. Even so, OU was able to take a 24-14 lead midway
through the fourth quarter. Equally difficult to stop was USC RB Marcus
Allen, who finished with 208 yards and two touchdowns. His second, a
three-yard score, got the Trojans to within three with over six minutes
left to play. OU's running game, which finished with 307 yards, was
looking to go on a long drive to run out the clock, but USC's defense
was able to come up with a stop to give the ball back to the offense
with 4:28 left. While the running game was moving the ball, it was
taking up too much time, forcing the Trojans to use QB John Mazur to
start throwing.
The ending: Mazur made the plays he had to, finding Jeff Simmons
for 26 yards and running for a first down on 4th and one before finding
Malcom Moore for a 15-yard pass with :17 to play. From the seven, Mazur
misfired to Allen on first down, and then had a wide-open Allen in the
end zone on second down. However, USC TE Fred Cornwell thought the pass
was for him and tipped it away with nine seconds to play. Instead of
going for the tie, USC head coach John Robinson called the same play
that had sprung Allen open before. It didn't work, as Mazur was forced
to scramble just as Cornwell was able to break free in the back left
corner of the end zone. Mazur put his throw on the money for the
touchdown with two-seconds to play and a 28-24 lead. OU made the final
kickoff interesting as Buster Rhymes got out to the 40 before being
How they ended up: Oklahoma didn't exactly come back roaring with
a 7-7 tie against Iowa State before losing 34-14 to Texas. The Sooners
ended the year with a 40-14 Sun Bowl win over Houston to finish 7-4-1
and 14th in the UPI poll and 20th in the AP. USC started the season
winning eight of its first nine games, hurt by a 13-10 loss to Arizona.
A 26-10 loss to Penn State in the Fiesta Bowl closed out a 9-3 campaign
to finish 13th in the UPI poll and 14th in the AP.

|@Josh K: This is a little over-the-top: $hash = sha1(sha1($password) ^ $salt);, $hash = sha1($password.$salt); would work just as well in practice (and faster). Also, the only reason I can think of to sha1(microtime()) is to constrain it to something that can fit in your column, and substr(str(microtime()), 0, 160) would work equally well (and faster), although I doubt microtime() gives a > 160 digit number anyway. Of course, you might be intentionally making it slow (so it would take more time to crack), but the performance should at least be mentioned.

Tulane Students Speak Out About 1L Ex-Con Bruce Reilly
Last week, when we first wrote about Bruce Reilly — the Tulane 1L who committed a murder nearly 20 years ago — we noted that when he outed himself on his website, he posted a t-shirt that read, "F**k Google, ask me."

Now let's hear from some of Bruce Reilly's new friends on campus….

Digital Edition - really getting there!
Hello there
It's now, what, almost a year since the digital switch? Maybe not that long but long enough that I now feel able to comment.
Like many lovers of the paper edition, I was taken aback by the speed of the switch but, being an international subscriber, the cost reduction made it worth giving the new format a fair try.
I first tried to read the PDF download which was hell even on 21" monitor. It was impossible to navigate properly and illegible on a small screen. Since my main use of LJ was on my daily two-hour train-and-subway commute this didn't work for me at all.
I then downloaded the LJ android app onto my phone. Now, things began to stack up - especially when I discovered the text versions of the articles (as opposed to the PDF-like print layout). I am lucky enough to have a large-ish screen (Samsung Galaxy S2).
I have adjusted my reading totally - no longer do I have to remember to roll up the mag to throw in my bag. Latest versions are downloaded automatically and past copies kept on the device if unfinished. Links between the articles and the LJ website (or other web content) are seamless and always relevent to the topic at hand.
I have only one suggestion - I spend over an hour of each day underground and the app requires a network connection to read articles unless they have been "saved" beforehand. This means that, as with todays edition, I have to manually navigate through and "save" each article to the phone. Please, please, can we have a top-level "save all articles" menu item?
Apart from this, the digital version required some change in my behaviour but I am convinced that the benefits significantly outweigh the deficiencies - to say nothing of the cost reduction.
The browser-based reader / navigation tool is pretty good for use on a desktop machine but the mobile application is the real killer here and I wish you well with the future. I am certainly going to remain a subscriber and I trust that you are seeing the benefits at the editorial level.

Jadran's dog, Rocky, was killed in an attack by a loose pit bull in the city last summer.
Stories this photo appears in:
Dog attack incidents look the same, but have very different outcomes
It's yet to be a full year since I lived through a nightmare, a nightmare that doesn't seem to have an ending. On Thursday, Aug. 11, 2011, my dog, Rock, and I were attacked by a pit bull running loose in my old Syracuse neighborhood. Rock, a Rottweiler that I rescued from a shelter in Colorado, had just turned 12 years old a few months prior. To this day, I know that if it weren't for Rock sacrificing his own life, it would have been a child, an adult, another animal or me that would have been hurt or killed. He acted with the utmost bravery that day and proved he would always make me feel safe. Sadly, many people (myself included) do not feel safe. While my incident happened in the city of Syracuse, near Le Moyne College, I recently learned of a similar situation happening in the town of Clay.

Have you ever been to Rock Hill? Yes, Rock Hill, that small town off 77 about 10 miles after you hit the SC state line. If not, get there fast - it's home to the Giordana Velodrome. I know, in Rock Hill! First, let's start with the obvious question - what's a velodrome? Before I moved to the area and took up cycling, I would have guessed-it was something like the Thunderdome in Madmax? You know, two men enter, one man leaves…or something like that.
|Thanks to Jenny Leiser for the photo!
Take a moment - look at the picture. Ready to hop on and ride? Yes, that's what we all thought when we exited the tunnel leading us to the center of the infield for a group lesson on how to ride track bikes with some other Ice members. Ohh did I forget to mention, when riding around the 250m track with steep embankments you're riding a fix'ie! Yea fun. There are no brakes and no shifting because there is only one gear, yes, that means no coasting. It also means the pedals will always be turning whether our legs want them to or not. The day started with some quick lessons about the lines on the track, rules for passing, yada yada yada. Then we were off to practice - getting on and off our bikes, stopping, slowing. Well come to find out it's hard as s*** to start and stop a fixed gear bike and doing that when your peddles in a low position, forget'a'bout'it. It's a good thing we had the flat infield lap to practice on.
After some tooling around on our bikes our instructor had us venture out onto the main track. He shouting some fleeting words of advice to us "if you drop below 13MPH your bike will slip out from under you in the steep turns…. however riding rented track bikes that are not equipped with speedometers. I have zero idea if I'm on the verge of breaking the track record or hovering right above the magical 13 miles per hour…. You had best believe I was peddling faster and harder than I ever had… entering every turn…..
|Thanks to Jenny Leiser again!
To give you a better idea what cycling is like in the velodrome: Think about you and your best bud riding side by side like a great 80s montage. At the velodrome that 80s montage of you and your bud side by side would have your head at the same level as best bud wheel. Riding below or above a person in space is a really a strange feeling but then you get to swoop down from the highest point to the lowest point yelling "Rail" to indicate your intentions to other riders….. It's instantly addictive and I want to sweep down the high wall again and again yelling RRRRAAAIIIIILLLLL.

ONE of the regular penpherals' or election campaigns featured again in 2004. The major parties both recognized the need for a strong business sector for the continuing vitality of the Australian economy-particularly small business.

Although the economic news is currently good, it is an excellent time to review the broader business environment.
So what is the environment that governments have created for business in Australia? What is the environment they have created for those starting out on the risky path of new business? What lurks behind all the official programmes designed to advise and assist those brave or foolish enough to enter the competitive race?
A hard look at the facts leaves one abiding impression: that governments in Australia are both actively and passively hostile to business.
Over recent decades, governments have adopted and adapted a series of techniques to oppress business. Some of the techniques are deliberate and others are the outcome of policies designed for other purposes. The techniques include:
* Overt and hidden taxes;
* Mandated expenditures;
* Mandated activity;
* Resource and property confiscation; and
* Impossibly detailed and/or discriminatory regulation.
The examples are numerous.
More Tax
The GST is the classic new tax that was designed to substitute for other taxes. But apart from a few, it has not done much either at the Commonwealth or the State level.
The superannuation levy is a tax under another name. For companies, it is a compulsory payment (tax) made to private-sector tax 'farmers' (superannuation funds). For most retirees it will do little more than substitute for the public pension. The supreme irony was that, having set up this new levy, the government then introduced new taxes on super. They forced people to save for the future then confiscated a significant part of those savings.
The various workcover schemes fall into the same category, as do compulsory insurances for public and product liability. Do we really need $20 million of public and product liability insurance to set up a market stall?
More Costs
Mandated expenditures are a cunning way of financing government policies while keeping the cost out of the public budget. An example is the compulsory courses which farmers must attend and pay for to certify them to use agricultural chemicals-something they have been doing for many decades by reading the instructions on the package. The courses are provided by third parties and thus never appear as government impositions. Various supplementary compulsory trades certificates for plumbers, builders, etc., are in the same category.
More Blackmail
Mandated activities usually come in the form of 1If you want to do A, you must do B'. So, if you want to put up a building, you may have to provide facilities in it that are unrelated to your business. Or, if you want to clear 20 trees, you may have to plant 200. A company exerting this sort of leverage would be accused of third line forcing (blackmail) under s.47 of the Trade Practices Act.
More Confiscation
Confiscation of property and resources without appeal or compensation now appears principally as environmental legislation. Green is the new red. Native vegetation and fauna protection laws are designed to lock up private land and resources by forbidding activity over large areas of rural Australia without compensation. The Queensland Vegetation Management Act is just one egregious example.
More Obfuscation
The list of over-complex, unadministrable and discriminatory legislation is endless and grows every day. Any business, small or large, could present instant examples.
The environmental legislation mentioned above is a prime example. …
