Jorge Posada will not catch A.J. Burnett
Jorge Posada has been told that he will not be catching when A.J. Burnett starts for the Yankees in either Game 2 or Game 3 of the American League Division Series. Posada said he was pulled aside by manager Joe Girardi on Sunday with the decision.
"It's not like I didn't see it coming," Posada said.
Molina has caught Burnett's last six starts, and he has fared 3-1 with a 2.92 ERA over that span. Posada last received Burnett on Sept. 1 at Baltimore, when the right-hander allowed six runs on 11 hits in 5 1/3 innings, taking a no-decision in New York's 9-6 victory.
Asked what pitchers like Burnett like about throwing to him, Molina quipped, "Big target?"
"I really have no idea," Molina said. "I just call the game the way the reports say, what hitters like to do. Plus I like to talk to the pitchers a lot. Maybe that's what they like."
Opponents are hitting .221 off Burnett with Molina behind the plate, compared to .270 with Posada back there. Posada said that he does not know if he'll play in that game at all, saying, "[Hideki] Matsui's our DH," and he did not seem pleased with the decision.
"I just hope we win that game," Posada said. "That's all I have to say."

Posada is the YANKEES catcher and a TRUE YANKEE LEADER. AJ Burnett MUST realize he has to pitch to Posada for the sake of the team and fans. Girardi, as the Yankee Manager MUST realize pitchers MUST pitch to Posada, they don't get to pick their personal catcher.
The Yankees need Posada in the lineup in every game. A.J. Burnett has to realize he is a Major League Pitcher and MUST pitch to Posada for the sake of the team. True, Molina is a good fielding catcher, but he does not offer the offensive abilities Posada does, as well as Posada's leadership abilities. Girardi should realize this if he wants to be a true Yankee Manager.
Course Posada isn't happy, no big leaguer wants to sit come the postseason. Thing is, when you look at the splits, Girardi made the right call. Burnett needs to be a on top of his game to give the Yankees the edge the dominant no.2 starters that so many remaining teams do have. Posada should still get 1 or 2 at bats later in the game.
I think Jose has a slight edge throwing over Jorge and both CC and Andy hold runners on better than AJ. This won't matter much for the Tigers and Twins but could be a big factor for the Angels if we face them!

He's Got Next: David Stern Passes the NBA to Adam Silver
David Stern passes the NBA to Adam Silver
Cleaning out his office in December, David Stern found a photo from his first day as commissioner of the National Basketball Association in 1984. Stern, then 41, had a mustache, a full head of dark hair, and eyeglasses as big as windshields. In the photo he rests his right hand on a copy of the Sporting News Official NBA Guide for the season. His left is raised to take an oath. Russ Granik, a league lawyer who would become Stern's deputy, holds the book. Seven other guys in suits stand by grinning. "I swore to uphold the NBA constitution, bylaws, and all that's holy," Stern recalls.
On Feb. 1, 30 years to the day later, Stern will retire as commissioner. Adam Silver, who joined the NBA in 1992 as Stern's special assistant and has been deputy commissioner since 2006, will take over the top job. There will be no mock oaths, no ceremony of any kind. "It isn't like I have a key to hand [over] or a staff or a crest of arms," says Stern, sitting next to Silver in the commissioner's meeting room at the NBA's headquarters in New York in December. For Silver, it will be another working Saturday. "It feels seamless," he says. "I feel I'm as prepared as I'll ever be."
Stern likes to make transition sound simple. It's not. A smooth handover of power, especially for a company in the public eye, can be a fraught process. Hewlett-Packard lost more than half its market value in little over a year as it lurched from Mark Hurd to Léo Apotheker to Meg Whitman from August 2010 to September 2011. Yoga wear maker Lululemon Athletica's stock slid more than 20 percent in two days after the sudden resignation of its chief executive officer last June. It fell again when the company announced a replacement six months later. And last August, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer surprised even his own management team when he announced his retirement after 14 years on the job. The search to fill his seat, accompanied by a buzz of distracting gossip, is ongoing.
As a privately held company, the NBA doesn't have to deal with activist investors or manage quarterly earnings expectations. Its shareholders are the 30 franchise owners who make up the board of governors and choose a commissioner by private vote. Yet with $5.5 billion in annual revenue and hundreds of millions of customers across the globe, the league very much resembles a multinational corporation. And the seamlessness of its executive transition should be the envy of most of them.
Bob Iger, the CEO and chairman of Walt Disney, knows about following in the footsteps of a legend (he took over from Michael Eisner in 2005) and the perils of handing off to the next generation (he's stepping down in 2016). Iger has been counseling Silver while maintaining close ties to Stern. "David deserves a lot of credit for not only developing Adam but for supporting him," he says. "That shouldn't be taken lightly. Adam's got all the talent in the world and deserved to get the job. But David recognizing that was of real significance."
The NBA that Stern took over in 1984 was a glorified 23-city circus. As late as 1981, NBA Finals games aired on tape delay on CBS to make room for more desirable programming such as The Waltons. During collective bargaining with the players in 1983, the league claimed $118 million in revenue for the previous season, about $5 million per team. It also said that franchises in Kansas City, San Diego, and elsewhere owed former players as much as $90 million in deferred pay.
Stern, who joined the NBA as general counsel in 1978, remembers franchises on the brink of bankruptcy. "We were going to wash out four teams," he says. By the time he became commissioner, the cavalry was on its way. Larry Bird and Magic Johnson were entering their primes. The Chicago Bulls drafted Michael Jordan in June 1984. But the boom days were still ahead. "Despite Larry and Magic," says Stern, "our brand recognition was very low, our international business virtually nonexistent, our sponsorships at probably zero, our licensing business infinitesimal."
In those days, Stern ran the NBA like a startup, with improvisation and bluff. "The financial planning was, 'What was last year's budget? Let's increase it by 5 percent and hey, we got our new budget,' " he says. The most urgent issue was the league's image. A mostly black league scared sponsors back then, as did drug use. Some of the league's best players, including David Thompson and John Lucas, had publicly struggled with addiction. (The "cocaine era," as it came to be known, culminated when Len Bias, the Boston Celtics' top pick of the 1986 draft, died of an overdose two days after being selected.) Blue-chip brands did not want to be associated with the league. "We were regarded as being somewhere between mud wrestling and tractor pulling," Rick Welts told David Halberstam for his 1999 book Playing for Keeps. Stern had sent Welts, then a marketing executive for the league and now president of the Golden State Warriors, to knock on doors along Madison Avenue, where he was told, Halberstam recounts, that the NBA was "too black."
With Welts as his advance man, Stern struggled to convince major brands that America was ready to admire NBA players. At the same time he worked to present NBA players as hardworking, clean-living athletes. Although Larry O'Brien still held the title of commissioner, Stern took the lead in negotiating a new labor pact with players in 1983, the first in U.S. sports to cap salaries. A drug agreement that same year subjected players to testing and the possibility of lifetime bans for recreational drugs.
As commissioner, Stern lived up to his title. He was the league's chief cop, stamping out behavior that could make sponsors skittish. He was swift with suspensions when a player refused to stand during the national anthem, went into the stands to fight a fan, or choked his coach. (He also hit Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban with almost $2 million in fines over 13 years, mostly for criticizing referees.) "He was very effective at being the sheriff," says Glen Taylor, owner of the Minnesota Timberwolves and chairman of the NBA board of governors.
As the league has established itself as a stage for global celebrities who make insurance commercials and sit in the front row at fashion shows, the damage control part of the job has become less central. Owners, too, have changed. When Stern took over, an NBA franchise could be had for $15 million. It takes $500 million now, at the low end. A buyer at that price doesn't take orders. "I don't think the word is 'sheriff' anymore," Taylor says. "It's a person who can pull people together." Silver, he says, is well suited to the behind-the-scenes consensus building the job now requires.
"David was very much the protector of that brand and the integrity of the league," says Silver. "I think the job has very much evolved over the years to more closely align to a CEO position than just the cop-on-the-beat, commissioner notion." The NBA now employs 1,100 people in 15 offices in a dozen countries. Along with basketball operations, Silver will oversee marketing, finance, legal, security, and merchandising departments, among others. He'll answer to billionaire owners who run software companies and venture capital firms and manage relationships with Adidas, Samsung Electronics, SAP, and ESPN.
Stern's and Silver's personalities reflect the changing nature of the job. Stern is famous for his disarming wit and flashes of anger; for better or worse, he's incapable of being anything other than his fulsome self. Silver, 51, is smoother, more corporate. During a joint interview at the NBA offices, Stern leans back as he talks, arms folded, jacket off, tie and collar loosened. Silver sits upright in a gray suit and checked tie, taking notes.
Silver's ability to deflect attention served him well in his deputy role. As he's prepared to step up, he's had to shed old habits. "I gave him a fair amount of advice," says Iger. "A lot of it came from the experience that I had. And it was, 'You've got to sell yourself.' " The delicate task is to set oneself apart without criticizing one's predecessor. The key, Iger says, is "not talking about the past, only about the future."
The NBA commissioner's most public performance comes every June in New York City during the player draft. For the past 30 years, Stern has taken the podium, usually at Madison Square Garden, to announce the picks, shake hands, and, at 5 feet 9—according to his official stats—take consistently hilarious photos with the draftees. And for the past 30 years, rowdy fans have booed Stern nearly every time he stepped onstage. When he gives way to his deputy to emcee the draft's second round, the fans cheer.
Stern relishes the attention. "That's the highest form of flattery in New York City," he says. Last year, with Silver already designated heir apparent, fans greeted him with a smattering of boos. "Somehow I didn't hear it," Silver says smiling, "but I was told they were booing." He's already bracing for the full treatment this year. "The last thing I'm going to do is ask for the boos," he says. "I'll take whatever comes."
"Oh God, you know, that's a big difference between us," says Stern, who would sometimes cup his hand to his ear to egg on the crowd.
In a closed locker room session at the All-Star Game three years ago, with labor negotiations looming, Stern told the assembled players that he knows where "the bodies are buried" in the NBA and that he buried some himself—a not terribly subtle warning in response to the suggestion that players might stage a walkout. Asked about the comments at a joint press conference with Silver last June, Stern said, with a smile, "I have a map. And I'm going to put it in one of the envelopes I'm leaving for Adam."
Embellishment aside, this is what succession planners call "institutional knowledge." For Silver, the process of acquiring it began when he started as Stern's special assistant 22 years ago, though at that point, Stern says, his only thought was, "How could I work him the hardest and pay him the least to improve the fortunes of the NBA?"
Silver, like Stern, started as a lawyer. Before coming to the NBA, he clerked for a federal judge in Manhattan and worked at Cravath, Swaine & Moore. Unhappy with life as an associate assigned to media and antitrust cases, he wrote a letter to Stern in 1992 seeking career advice. (Silver's father, Edward, and Stern were both partners at Proskauer Rose in the '70s.) Stern offered to take him on as a special assistant, a job that provided a front row seat to the day-to-day work of the commissioner.
"Over the last 22 years, there's no one on the planet I've talked to more than I have David," Silver says. "For years and years, I traveled everywhere David went. I even opened his mail when I first started working here." After a year, Silver became NBA chief of staff. Two years later he moved to the league's entertainment division, which manages its largest revenue source: television rights. (One of his first tasks as commissioner will be negotiations for new national deals. The NBA's $930 million-per-year contracts with ESPN and Turner Sports expire in 2016.) He went on to run the entertainment division for eight years. When Granik stepped down in 2006 after a 22-year run as deputy commissioner, Silver took the No. 2 post. Granik, six years younger than Stern, was seen as too close in age to succeed him. "Had the timing been different, [he] would have become a great commissioner in his own right," says Silver.
It was around then that succession planning began in earnest. Stern went to a small group of owners and told them, he recalls, that he was "not planning to be the eternal commissioner" and gave Silver a strong endorsement. All but a handful of the NBA's current owners came into the league under Stern. He's helped many of them double, triple, or quadruple their investments, and his word carries immense weight. Still, he works for them. And the choice of a successor was theirs to make.
Taylor, a self-made printing and marketing services billionaire who bought the Timberwolves in 1995 and became chairman of the board of governors in 2008, took the lead in making the case for Silver to the other owners. He spoke with them one by one, beginning with those who had been in the league the longest. Most, he says, saw it the way he did: Silver was the logical choice. Some of the newer owners wanted to broaden the search. "The question was asked," Taylor says, "why wouldn't we go out and look at five candidates, Adam being one of them?"
When Paul Tagliabue stepped down as NFL commissioner in 2006, the league spent five months searching for a successor and interviewed several outside candidates. On their fifth round of voting the owners picked Roger Goodell, who had spent his entire career with the league. The outside search, even as a token effort, can be taxing for an internal candidate. Iger, who had been through it at Disney, tried to prepare Silver for the possibility. "You can easily become indignant of the fact that they would even consider somebody else," he says. "And you can't allow that to get under your skin or consider it an insult."
While Taylor organized the owners, Stern began giving way to Silver. At the commissioner's weekly departmental check-ins, Silver would finish Stern's sentences. When Adidas CEO Herbert Hainer called, or Fox President Randy Freer, or ESPN President John Skipper, they spoke to Silver. And when it came time to choose a chief financial officer last year, Silver held sway, picking Jason Cahilly from Goldman Sachs. "Adam had a different perspective of a type of person that he wanted to bring in, and David supported him all the way on that," says Taylor. "When I saw that, I knew that David wasn't just mouthing it, that he actually was going to allow Adam to make changes."
Silver also began speaking with owners directly about his future. They told him, he says, that they needed to hear him speak in his own voice. The opportunity came when Stern put Silver in charge of negotiations with the players union over a new collective bargaining agreement. The process stretched over two years, including a five-month lockout that shortened the 2011-12 season, and ended in a victory for owners, who cut the share of revenue paid to players from 57 percent to 50 percent.
"I really gained a lot of respect for him during that process," says Dan Gilbert, the owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers, founder of Quicken Loans, and then a member of the NBA's labor committee. "He keeps a cool head about him. He's very smart. He can hold a line with owners and with the other side when he needs to."
In the end, the owners decided to skip the outside search. Taylor convinced them that they would only wind up with Silver. He also reminded them that they have an out: They can terminate a commissioner anytime with a three-fourths majority. On Oct. 25, 2012, the owners voted 30-0 to elect Silver their next commissioner, with a five-year initial contract. That same day, Stern announced he'd retire on Feb. 1, 2014.
When Stern first spoke about stepping down, some owners thought it was a joke. "He'd been making a little bit of noise about it for a few years, but nobody really totally believed him," says Gilbert. Stern's life, for more than three decades, has been the NBA. "David, like any other hard charger, was afraid of the future," says Taylor. "He was concerned that he hadn't probably formed as many hobbies, as many outside interests." Taylor assured him new opportunities and offers would be forthcoming.
Stern promises not to cast a long shadow. "My feeling of the issue is, when you're gone, you're gone," he says. "So my new office will not be at the NBA. And that's it." His official title will be commissioner emeritus. He doesn't have a plan for what's next, other than more time traveling with his wife of 50 years, Dianne, herself a big basketball fan. "I've decided for the moment to forgo making a decision about some very lucrative, attractive, and time-consuming engagements," he says. "I'll likely be head of a different enterprise." He's at ease, for now, with fading relevance. "I am moving away from the center of the action," he says. "I'll miss it to a degree, but it's a conscious choice."
Silver says he'll be calling Stern for advice. "I can't imagine a scenario in which we won't be talking on a regular basis," he says. "It would be foolhardy for me not to be constantly checking in with David." He's not concerned about any appearance that Stern is still pulling the strings. Neither is Gilbert: "David will give good, honest, impartial advice, so I don't think that can hurt," he says. "Adam's also made it known to me and others that, as much as he respects David and the way he ran things, he is going to be his own man and there is going to be a different style."
On Friday, Jan. 31, Stern's last business day on the job, the league office will hold a live "town hall" videoconference for all 15 offices. At about 9 a.m. New York time, Stern will open the meeting. "I will say goodbye and Adam will say hello," he says. "And what's better than that?"

Question: What is the law concerning funeral processions? I see them once in a while and some drivers pull over, some mix right in with the funeral procession. I just think there are a lot of people who don't know what to do, and if you could address the rule on this it might help.
Answer: I did an article about this before at the request of some funeral director acquaintances, but it has been awhile so I guess we should at least put out a quick reminder.
Some people think the current law covering this issue is not very specific and needs some clarification but it is what it is.
M.S.S. 169.20, subdivision 6 says, "When any funeral procession identifies itself by using regular lights on all cars and by keeping all cars in close formation, the driver of every other vehicle, except an emergency vehicle, shall yield the right-of-way." We don't have a definition of "funeral procession" in the statutes other than what is provided in this statute, but we do have a definition of right-of-way. M.S.S. 169.011, subdivision 66 says, "Right-of-way means the privilege of the immediate use of highway."
We all need to use common sense when encountering a funeral procession. Sometimes the vehicles in the procession may not be driving close enough together to be easily identified as a funeral procession or perhaps some (if not several) of the vehicles in the procession don't have their headlights on.
We have heard of complaints of vehicles coming up from behind a procession and trying to pass some or all of the vehicles or cutting in the procession. Those kinds of actions should be avoided and are probably a violation of law or at least a disrespectful act, if not.
When meeting a procession on a two lane road, I always pull over and stop. At the very least, a driver should slow down and move over towards the right of their lane more in cases like these. Officers will often be at intersections where there are stoplights or stop signs and assist funeral processions as requested by the Funeral Director.
Thanks for asking about this. Hopefully this brief discussion will do some good. All of us need to work together to ensure a safe environment on our roadways. Slow down, buckle up, drive sober and pay attention.

The Marshals Service did not release any additional information to The Boston Globe on Tuesday.
Multiple media outlets reported that the 83-year-old Bulger was taken to from the Plymouth County jail to Boston Medical Center on Sunday after complaining of chest pain. He has a history of heart trouble.
Bulger's trial is scheduled to begin in March, but his lawyers have said they cannot be ready by then because they are reviewing more than 300,000 documents. They have asked for an eight-month delay.
Bulger, a former FBI informant, fled Boston in 1994 and was one of the FBI's most wanted fugitives until he was captured last year in California.

FORT WAYNE (Indiana's NewsCenter) - Komet forward Chris Auger will miss Wednesday night's game with Texas and go on injured reserve with a concussion
Auger, tied for the team lead in goals with eleven and third in overall scoring with 21 points, was elbowed by Evansville's Trevor Linden in the third period Saturday night and had to be helped off the ice after lying there for several minutes.
The Central Hockey Leaguie has ruled that Linden's five minute elbowing and game misconduct penalties are the end of the incident, with no additional punishment planned.
Auger is on the ten day injured reserve list.

Despite missing three key swimmers, South Brunswick stepped up when it counted to defeat Old Bridge, 100-70, last night at the Old Bridge YMCA.
South Brunswick coach John Harding was proud of the way his girls rallied to improve their record up to 9-2 as they approach the end of the regular season.
"I thought it went pretty well tonight. There were a lot of exciting races," said Harding, who was missing the team members because of an injury and other commitments. "I was a little nervous on the girls' side because we were missing three girls, but I thought they swam well and they did what they needed to do."
Some key races for South Brunswick came in the 200-yard individual medley, where Samantha Chan finished first with a time of 2:23.44. The team also managed a 1-2 finish in the 50 freestyle behind Cassie Cipriano (28.48) and Ally Machlis (28.53).
Cipriano had an impressive night for herself. Along with the 50 free victory, she teamed with Vivian Li, Christina Napoli and Samantha Chan to take second in the 200 medley relay in 2:04.61, placed second in the 100 free and took part in the first-place 400 free relay, winning in 4:09.68 along with Chan, Napoli and Emily Charniga.
The interesting part of her performance was the fact that she normally does not swim the 100 and 50 freestyle. She was filling in for her missing teammates.
"Cassie is usually our backstroke swimmer, but I was really happy with her performance and how she stepped in for us when we needed her," Harding said.
Old Bridge stayed competitive after a strong start in the 200 medley relay, when Michelle Frantino, Ashley Corley, Courtney Foley and Jessica Charitun won in 2:04.20. Foley also placed first in the 200 free at 2:03.16 as well as the 100 butterfly coming in at 1:02.61. Frantino placed first in the 100 free with a time of 1:01.41.
It was not quite enough to keep up with a South Brunswick that was able to make up for its absences with a team effort.
"It was great just having everyone's enthusiasm and stepping up when they needed to even if they don't normally swim that race," Cipriano said.

KALAMAZOO -- Someone mass text the Lawson Lunatics.
They have post-spring break plans tonight.
Kevin Connauton scored at 7:57 of the second overtime and Riley Gill made 54 saves as Western Michigan University's hockey team, skating for its lives, beat Lake Superior State, 4-3, in Game 2 of a first-round Central Collegiate Hockey Association tournament series Saturday night at Lawson Ice Arena.
• When: 7:35 p.m. Sunday.
• Where: Lawson Ice Arena.
• Radio: WQXC-FM 100.9.
Game 3, which decides who advances to play at Michigan next weekend, is at 7:35 tonight -- full contingent of rowdy WMU students or not.
Connauton discharged a mighty roar given the 811 fans in attendance when a rebound darted onto his blade at the goal line and he jammed it into the net behind sprawled out Lakers goaltender Brian Mahoney-Wilson.
It was the freshman defenseman's second goal of the night and third of the series -- even if, position-wise, he wasn't supposed to be anywhere near the goal line.
"Second overtime, trying to get something going, you can't be passive," Connauton said. "You have to play to win."
Gill returned to form in the WMU net a night after he allowed six goals on 26 shots and was pulled.
He was especially strong in the third period with the Broncos clinging to their one-goal lead -- he stacked his pads to kick out a no-doubter with 14:15 remaining -- but had no chance on the game-tying goal with 2:30 left.
Just after a Lake Superior State power play expired, Lakers defenseman Matt Cowie let go a wrist shot that hit traffic in front, fluttered and snuck behind Gill. But instead of crumbling, Gill seemed to get stronger and even more precise as shift after shift led to overtime after overtime.
"The season is on the line -- you can't let nerves get in the way," Gill said. "We were disappointed (after the tying goal), but we had a chance to extend our season and we just had to go out there and take it to them.
"The spirits were kind of positive in (the locker room before overtime)."
Patrick Galivan saw his points streak end at 13 games, but he didn't go down without a fight.
At the end of a long penalty-killing shift in the first period, Galivan poked the puck loose at the WMU blue line, caught up to the Lake Superior State player who was retreating to corral it in the neutral zone, then stole it again and went in on a breakaway.
But Mahoney-Wilson, who finished with 41 saves, stayed with Galivan move-for-move and robbed him with his glove.
Greg Squires helped give WMU a 1-0 lead -- helped, because Lakers defenseman Steven Oleksy did most of the work when he accidentally fumbled Squires' low backhanded shot into the Lake Superior net 9:46 into the contest.
The Lakers tied the game, 1-1, on an equally awkward play.
Gill stopped an initial shot from the circle, but fell over backward as the puck lay between his legs. A scrum ensued, the puck pin-balled and Lakers forward Dan Barczuk directed it into the net as he fell forward onto his chest.
The Broncos had a two-man advantage for 49 seconds late in the first period and it took just 26 seconds for Connauton to cash in, drilling a one-timer from the left circle that cleanly beat Mahoney-Wilson to make it 2-1.
Jared Katz also scored for WMU, which kept Lake Superior State scoreless in six power-play tries. The Broncos were 1-of-4 with the man-advantage.

Stony Brook -- The Jamesville-Dewitt Red Rams looked at the numbers and saw a defense that had shut down some of the best teams on Long Island all year. Playing without second leading scorer Jake Bratek, who suffered a collarbone injury in practice prior to the game, the task may have seemed daunting.
But even with a short time to prepare its attack, J-D hung around in the first quarter and pulled away in the second to capture the New York state Class B Boys lacrosse championship over the Garden City Trojans by a score of 11-5 Saturday afternoon at LaValle Stadium in Stony Brook, New York. On an overcast day on Long Island the Red Rams capped its perfect 22-0 season with a decisive victory over a talented squad from Nassau County.

New Jersey has no reason to have an identity crises. You would think the wealthiest and most educated state in the nation would not have to do anything to assert its image, but we do.
There's a reason why the wealthiest people decide that New Jersey is the place to hang their hat. And there's a reason why we're the most educated. However, based on the all too frequent Jersey jokes on TV and the angry musings of talk radio, it would be better to live in one of the Dakotas. I don't think so!
For example, where is the #1 golf course in the world located? You guessed it, right here in New Jersey at Pine Valley.
Despite the obvious, New Jersey does not get the credit it deserves. So let's start beating our chests.
The success of the Rutgers football team and the women's basketball team has, so to speak, gotten the ball rolling.
I know there are plenty more important issues the legislature needs to address, but Jon Bon Jovi, no disrespect to Bruce intended, has written a #1 hit that says it all about New Jersey and we should make it the state song: Who says you can't go home?
It certainly won't be the most significant legislation I've sponsored, but it sure makes me feel good to say, "These are my streets, the only life I've ever known."

They dared until the end. The dream may not have been realised, not fully anyway, but Sunderland never gave up on it, not until the whistle sounded and adrenalin finally seeped away from leaden limbs. The Capital One Cup has been a balm on this most livid of seasons, a source of unity and possibility and although the record will state that this was another defeat, there are shades of dismay.
It was some day. Some occasion. After their peaceful, woozy, drunken invasion of Covent Garden the night before, red and white hordes decamped to Wembley Way, making the stadium


text: my first outdoor plant was ugly. raggedy spider like red hairs all over. long too. it was harvested when there were some red hairs but alot of white as well. outdoor plants 2 and three from this fall, had mostly white hairs when harvested. the hairs when dried looked "normal" not ugly and heavy. very tastey weed. the last 2 indoor girls had lots and lots of white hairs. they were plump. same genetics as one of the outdoor girls. lots of really pretty orange hairs covered in crystals. also tastey tastey smoke. i'm new to growing but not smokn so i was wondern what is the deal with red hairs? i have brasil growing and most of the buds have so many thick white hairs they look like cotton plants

By JANET FRANKSTON LORIN
Associated Press Writer
EDISON, N.J. (AP) -- Pakistanis living in New Jersey voiced concern over the assassination of that nation's former prime minister and worry that her death would bring greater uncertainty for their families still living in Pakistan.
"It doesn't matter if people like her or don't like her. What happened is very bad," said Mian Aziz, who has owned a Pakistani restaurant, Shezan, in Edison, home to many in New Jersey's Indian and Pakistani communities, for 14 years. Aziz said he was glued to television coverage of Benazir Bhutto's assassination.
Born in Lahore, Aziz, 54, came to the U.S. three decades ago and since 1988 has lived in New Jersey, where the 2000 Census counted more than 12,000 people who identified themselves as Pakistani. More than 250,000 people from neighboring India also live in the state.
Aziz said he received a call from his brother-in-law, who lives in Rawalpindi near the hospital where Bhutto died, to say their family members there were fine.
"He said the situation is very bad now," Aziz said. "Everyone is sad, upset now. We don't know what's going to happen now."
Drinking tea with Aziz was Iqbal Poshni, 66, a retired microbiologist and Karachi native who has been in the United States for 45 years, who blamed the killing on extremists.
"They're extremists in their views and not willing to accept the views of other people," he said.
Farther down Oak Tree Road, which is filled with Indian and Pakistani businesses, Karachi native Firdous Khan served food from behind the counter at Shalimar in Woodbridge.
"I'm scared for my family over there," said Khan, 37, who said she is the only family member in the United States.
She called Bhutto a "good person."
"After exile, she came back, and we were all very happy," Khan said.
Rafi Khan -- who is not related to Firdous Khan -- stopped into the restaurant with his wife and 4-year-old son for lunch and said Bhutto's death was a big loss for Pakistan.
"This sends a bad signal for politicians with Western educations," said Khan, a New York banker who was born in Lahore. "It sets up a very bad precedent, especially for women coming into politics."
Mian Zahid Ghani, a former journalist with a Pakistani news agency now living in New Brunswick, predicted Bhutto's assassination would force cancellation of Pakistan's upcoming elections.
"The masses will blame (President Pervez) Musharraf for this, and there will be a lot of chaos and unrest in the country," he said, referring to Pakistan's leader. "It has already started today. There might be a civil war. Musharraf should be planning his exit."
However, Ghani said fears over what might happen to Pakistan's nuclear weapons as the nation is in crisis are unfounded, saying that he thought the nuclear weapons would remain safe.
Hameed Butt, a former president and chairman of Pakistani League of America, heard the news of Bhutto's death Thursday morning by phone from his brother, who lives about 100 miles from Lahore.
"I don't have words to say," said Butt, a retired chemist who has lived in Edison since leaving Pakistan in 1971. "I'm so shocked. She was a super leader of her country, and she was going to bring moderate forces to the country."
Butt said Bhutto was a brilliant and popular leader who will be remembered for her moderate stance.
"She was opposing those fundamentalists, the terrorists in my country," he said. "She was representing the moderate forces. She was one of the intellectuals too, one of the politicians who had a brain. She was going to turn Pakistan into a modern state."
Butt, 72, said he returned from Pakistan two weeks ago to attend the wedding of his nephew in Islamabad, also visiting Lahore and Karachi.
"She was a symbol of modern Islam," he said.
Associated Press reporters Wayne Parry in Atlantic City and Jeffrey Gold in Newark contributed to this story.

When you walk through the rental car lot at an airport and see your rental car do you ever suffer renter's remorse? I do, all of the time. There is always another car parked close by that I would have preferred. Maybe it is red, or looks roomier or sportier and usually I trudge back to the rental counter and see if I can get them to switch my rental to something with more style from the cars on offer.
I must not be alone in this and Avis has come to the rescue. All you need to do is to sign up under their Avis Preferred program at www.avis.com/select&go
In the coming months this new "Select and Go" program will be coming to 50 airport locations in both the US and Canada. With this new program you will be able to drive off in the car that has been pre-selected for you OR you can exchange your car at no additional charge from the cars located in the designated area or, for an additional charge, you can upgrade to a higher grade vehicle. But you won't have to go back to the counter to do this. As a "preferred renter' you can just pick the car you want and drive past the Avis booth to have your switch validated. For a picky traveler who never likes her assigned car, I am pretty excited about this opportunity to browse in the rental lot and then have a speedy getaway!

1. Good Ideas:
These are the upcoming projects it's worth getting excited over. Sure, they could be duds, but there's potential for greatness.
2. Beverly Hills Cop
The 21 Jump Street movie proved just how much we needed a good cop action comedy. Now we're going from film to TV with CBS' Beverly Hills Cop series, which will be transformed into a gritty drama, I guess? Just kidding. This could be a lot of fun, especially since Eddie Murphy will be involved. Remember Beverly Hills Cop Eddie Murphy? You liked him.
3. Hannibal
I wasn't so sure about this one — there's an annoying trend toward overexplaining serial killers these days. But the NBC series about Hannibal Lecter actually seems kind of promising. It helps that Hannibal is a fascinating character, and not only because he eats people. It also helps that Hugh Dancy is involved.
4. Death Becomes Her
Let's first acknowledge and mourn the fact that we will never get another Meryl Streep-Goldie Hawn showdown. Still, a Death Becomes Her series could be a dark comic gem: two characters who can't die trying to kill each other? Think Tom & Jerry meets American Horror Story.
Even non-comic book geeks turned out in droves for Joss Whedon's Marvel mash-up The Avengers. The much-buzzed about TV follow-up will focus on Nick Fury's secret law-enforcement agency. Because Whedon's involved, we can expect the same sharp writing that helped made the film such a critical success.
6. Worst Ideas:
While we should reserve judgment until these actually air, it's tough to see how these TV adaptations are going to work.
7. Scream
Yeah, yeah, we all love Scream, but I can't be the only one who's noticed these movies tend to get worse with each new installment. MTV's proposed adaptation will surely have a very current soundtrack. Outside of that, though, how do you do a slasher story as a weekly drama? Not to mention network constraints.
8. The Joneses
Remember The Joneses, that 2009 movie you didn't see? It will soon be a Bravo TV series you won't watch. The concept is somewhat intriguing: a group of professional salespeople pretend to be a family to force product placement on suburbia. Who's going to tune in, though? And because this is Bravo, expect an onslaught of actual product placement.
9. Live-Action Star Wars Series
Guys, this is going to be bad. Really, really bad. We've been talking about a live-action Star Wars since a long, long time ago — before we had to deal with the abomination of the new trilogy. Now that it looks inevitable, we can only hope it's less Episode I and more Clone Wars.
10. Bates Motel
With all the unnecessary sequels (and that godawful remake), hasn't Hitchcock's Psycho suffered enough? Apparently not. A&E will be airing Bates Motel, focusing on the early life of Norman Bates. Except we already know enough, don't we? And we definitely know how this story ends.
- Sen. Elizabeth Warren went full "nasty" on Trump, saying "nasty women" are going to cast their "nasty votes" on Nov. 8 🙋
- French authorities have begun moving thousands of migrants and refugees from the makeshift "Jungle" camp in Calais.
- "She's not responsible for the journalism mistakes": Why Jackie won't be outed in the Rolling Stone trial.
- These parents came up with maybe the best dirty Halloween couple's costume ever. Parents ftw 😂👏

All too often investors do not understand the very investment products they own. Take investments with abbreviated names, for example. The investment world is fond of coming out with products that are poorly understood, even by those who sell these products. Products like CMOs, ETFs, LPs, IPOs and UITs create a soup of confusing letters.
What are these things?
And who should own them?
Before getting into these products themselves, it is good to lay the groundwork: Keep in mind that all investments fall into two very broad categories: (1) ownership, where an investor actually owns all or a portion of a company (stock), real estate, commodities or a host of other things; and (2) lending money to others, which is usually done by contract and generally called fixed-income or debt investing. We'll refer to these two as stocks or bonds, even though there are other differences.
In contrast to stock investing, where an investor really does own something, bond investing is simply about lending money for interest and hoping to get the principal back at a date in the future. It may seem rather obvious, but it is worth saying that an investor should know which of these two investment types (or even a combination of the two) applies to investments they are considering — before putting their money down. This is not always easy because, with some investment products, this distinction is not even made clear to professionals and brokers who sell such products.
For most investors, it is best to steer clear of what may be the latest investment product with a nondescript abbreviation. Better yet, why not employ a professional to choose and manage individual products? This is easily accomplished with mutual funds, which provide excellent long-term experience with thousands of managers and products from which to choose. Every different mutual fund is devoted to a specific kind of investment product, such as stock of small or large companies or bonds of corporations or the government. Others might hold a combination of stocks and bonds.
A mutual fund is simply an investment account, where the manager makes all the decisions on individual investment products for the fund to buy, sell and/or hold. An investor owns one or more shares of all the investments in the fund. An important distinction with mutual funds is that some mutual funds allow the manager to freely buy and sell investment products as long as they fit the established mandate of the fund. In contrast, index mutual funds are restricted to holding only those investment products that fall into their mandated index, (for example, the S&P 500 or the Russell 2000 indexes).
All mutual funds are required to disclose information about themselves, making it relatively easy to track performance over time as well as fees and costs. Mutual funds can be purchased in a few ways: (1) directly through the mutual fund company, (2) through a full-service broker or (3) through a discount broker. There are pros and cons to each. Generally, expect more limited choices and higher loads and fees when purchasing mutual funds through a full-service broker.
Two investment types with abbreviated names are worthy of note here:
1) ETFs (exchange-traded funds) are a kind of mutual fund, but they are not referred to as such for a few reasons. What are they? ETFs have a stated purpose and a manager, and they are limited to holding a pool of investments that are tied to certain indexes. Because their investment products held are fixed and do not change, the value of ETFs can be easily ascertained in the market during any trading day. Which is not the case for mutual funds. For that reason, ETFs are traded on the stock exchange through a broker (hence their name as exchange-traded).
Because of this, even fixed-income (bond) ETFs are bought and sold on the stock exchange, and all ETFs are usually listed on most brokerage statements as stock. Take care that this does not affect your asset allocation. Morningstar rates and provides much information about ETFs, and most investors would do well to become familiar with them and add them to their portfolios.
2) UITs (Unit Investment Trusts) are similar to mutual funds and ETFs with one major difference: Once the pool of investment products is selected, it never changes, which can lock an investor into investments, good or bad. UITs are not new, but they are having a resurgence of late.
According to The Wall Street Journal, "2013 is on pace to be the top-selling-year (for UITs) on record," with roughly 6,000 UITs to choose from. Information on UITs, such as cost and performance, are not readily available, excepting through the website of the sponsoring firm. I recommend you avoid UIT investments because they're more costly and other well-understood products will provide better returns.
ETFs have stood the test of time and are well worth considering for most investors. It is well to beware of new products with abbreviations and take care to understand investment products before investing.

Cassadaga Valley: Reaping reward from scandal
November 18, 2013
What happened last week in the Cassadaga Valley Central School District is surreal. Two educators placed in charge of overseeing teachers and students are either out or on leave....
They should have been fired on the spot. What a joke.

Heck of a statement since nobody actually knows what happened, who did what to whom, what actual proof was to be had, nothing. I hope if I ever get in legal trouble that nobody writing editorials for The Observer is on the jury.

Agree with the article and agree the school board acted as best and as quickly as it could. This is just another example of the litigious world we live in: "We'll pay you hush money if you don't sue us for wrongful termination."

The clueless church lady gaggle OBSERVER board -- despite being supposedly pro-business -- is waaay out-of-touch with executive management employment, whether private or public sector.
Senior school managers are professionally educated and trained executives -- their responsibilities are absolutely no different than a private sector counterpart: they have multimillion dollars budgets, large staffs, facilities & logistics operational management, thousands of customers, producing product, etc, etc.
Private sector senior managers get severance packages, and usually in similar to CVCS' situation, director boards often prudently provide severance packages to avoid almost-certain much more expensive and protracted resource-depleting litigation.
But doing some research and correcting a self-induced cranial rectal inversion before they write a thing doesn't seem to be within the ability or willingness of the gaggle.

Actually, Dc, in private industry - and I've worked for several Fortune 50 companies - if you're terminated for cause for - oh, let's say - a morals issue - you're escorted out the door by security and your personal effects are mailed to you.
There's no "kiss on the cheek" for something like that...

Just the threat of a lengthy lawsuit by the accused will cause most BOEs to reluctantly agree to a buyout, and EVERYONE knows this is how the game is played if/when school employees are ever caught committing a terminable offense. Any evidence in this case doesn't appear to favor the accused, otherwise, it stands to reason they would NOT have taken the money and run. Of course, taxpayers are forced to pay the separation costs for those who MAY actually be guilty of such charges.
Maybe if an atty filed a class action suit on behalf of property owners to recover this money, BOEs may not be so quick to "reward" people who may otherwise be found guilty, thereby putting an end to this "game."

Let the superintendent go, same with replace the principal with someone else (hopefully a school that smal only has one principal), and begin the process of regionalizing the county into a single-superintendent system, one school scandal at a time. If this was started a couple years ago, we'd already have 3 or 4 schools converted over by now. Too bad it can't be done that way, because it's about the only way it will happen.

Christopher said:***I would like to disagree on comparisons with private industry.

This is a wee bitty rural school district; a more appropriate comparison would be small businesses like mine and I can tell you, having been in business for over 30 years that the editors, love em or hate em, got it right this time. The public sector, or more precisely, NYS public schools (their unions), make it way too hard and way too expensive to terminate incompetents and miscreants.

People at the school know what was going on, not much different then trying to figure out what happened with the Clymer superintendent and his killer. Was a trial really needed in that case. Where there is smoke there is usually fire. If the CV superintendent quit on his own there was smoke and fire there. The people deserve to know. 1st reason is because the taxpayers flip the bill on this crap and the 2nd reason is because you need to let people know if you pull this crap your name will be known and to deter this type behavior. This guy should never have another government job.
4 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Christopher, did you know what went on with the Clymer superintendent prior to the trial? Did you know anymore after the trial then you did before? Not really. A lot of these cases are not that difficult to figure out. With your type opinion no one gets convicted except Zimmerman.

I wish Christopher had kept an open mind when it came to the Zimmerman case. He had it figured out before the trial.

I am sure there was a lot getting done at the school with those two working there. Does anyone know what kind of working environment that leads to. A total break down, that is what occurs. Oh and you have people that will make all kinds of excuses for the crap. A job is a place to work, leave your problems at the front door and do your job. This goes on far to much both in the private and public job places. The CV school district should sue both the superintendent and the principal for failing to perform their duties and for behavior unbecoming a professional.

"Again, everyone is basing their opinions on ASSUMPTIONS as to exactly what went on. I have no idea exactly what went on."
I agree completely, BUT I would take it one step further and say that the taxpayer, who the BOE put on the hook for these funds, should have the right to know the specifics on what caused this situation and why this solution was chosen.
Now this isn't to say they need, or should be given all the dirty details, but summary of the entire case is warranted.

I've dreamt of seeing Niagara Falls since I was a child, and did not even think about it until I was reminded by passing signs that they were right there
I made it out of Buffalo just in time to miss rush hour traffic and continued east on highway 90. And, by the way - why the hell are the tolls so damn expensive out east? In the west we don't charge people to drive on the roads yet the roads are in better condition! I don't get it. However, I'm sure that instead of having tolls the gas taxes are just higher and it might actually come out in the east's favor
Blinded by the dark and rain and driving almost exclusively on faith, I made it to Albany a little after 9pm. I was warned that she was in a very rural area and after taking an exit 10 miles past city center, weaving over a few miles of back country roads and down a dark half mile driveway (she wasn't joking), I believed her. The 2-story old country house was dimly glowing from a few lights inside. I parked behind a VW hatchback that matched the description of her car, was relived that I had actually found the place, and shut of the engine and lights. Nothing but the sound of a thousand crickets and other nocturnal insects and creatures. Huge trees canopied over the yard and house, blocking out [non-existent] light from the sky. The ground insulated with a thick layer of soggy leaves, the air humid and evident of recent rain, the leaves high above glistening here and there, illuminated by the modest home. Claire came out to greet me, already in pajamas. I too had put my pajama bottoms on hours earlier (one needs to be comfortable when one drives for 17 hours straight). We laughed at our similar sentiment - "sorry, but I wasn't gonna dress up for you..."
She had made homemade calzones for dinner. Mine was not terribly warm any more, but still delicious (although, to her admission - she overcooked them and the crust was a little leathery). A side of whiskey made a fine compliment. Her father wasn't home, but I met her sleepy step-mother or New Zealand origin (they met on a train). We retired shortly after hanging out, catching up on travels, and figuring out logistics for the wedding the next day
I went for a jog in the morning. After spending most of the prior 4 days driving I was crazing a little exercise. Short, just down the driveway and back, I got to see some of the beautiful countryside that I had driven past the night before - huge trees and rolling cornfields, modest country homes and a lethargic stream. The wedding was almost at the very end of Cape Cod - the hook at the end of Massachusetts that looks like it is picking a booger out of the ocean (Boston?). Right on the beach - most of us were not even wearing shoes, letting the soft sand massage and smooth our feet bottoms, the ceremony was literally about 3 minutes long. Hey, y'all. Thanks for coming. Do you take her? Yes. How bout you? Yes. Cool. Let's drink! Two kegs were provided, and we already had a couple down the hatch. Soon after the bottle of Turkey I picked up made an appearance, of which Claire and I almost singlehandedly demolished. Lobster, steak, or chicken, along with a bag full of steamed mussels, potatoes, corn, and sausage. De.Licious. On with the drinking. A couple games of cornhole, a bonfire on the beach, music (no dancing yet - nobody was drunk enough), and perfect weather. The forecast was for rain all day long. When I met the bride and groom I told them, "You don't know me, but my gift for you was the sunshine for your wedding day." At one point, after it was dark, Claire told me that she needed to take a nap, went to her car, and told me to wake her up in 20 minutes
Morning. Amazingly not hung over. Not exactly bright eyed and bushy tailed, but not hung over. Just a few miles down the road lie Provincetown, at the very tip of Cape Cod. As we were eating breakfast on an outside patio (slight hangovers beginning to set in), I was looking around and realized that, not counting families, we were about the only non-same-sex pair in the town. Huh. I mentioned this to Claire and she responded, "Of course. That's the only way I knew you wouldn't run off on me!" Apparently everyone knew this of Provincetown but me. Please know that it does not bother me in the slightest, it was just one of those "...huh..." moments
The dad was home that night. Dads are always scary, no matter what, but other than that - he wasn't scary at all. Much more of the "nice hippy" she had described him as. We all talked for a long time, she and I told about our adventures with whiskey and back-seat napping and Newport. Joined by crickets and a light mist in the air, we sat on the wet lawn filling our mouths with whiskey and our lungs with cigarette smoke. Thus ended the first weekend with Claire.

WATCH: Justin Bieber Gets Spanked With A Belt, Zach Galifianakis Officially Best Person Ever
We've all grown a bit weary of Justin Bieber's inappropriately shirtless in public, ass on Instagram, "we get it, you're a stoner" behavior over the lat few months and luckily Zach Galifianakis takes the Bieber to task in this hilarious episode of his Funny or Die series, Between Two Ferns.
Before the shtick and the leather starts flying, Galifianakis expresses how excited he is to talk to the pop tart "right in the middle of your public meltdown." The hirsute host then goes in on the teenaged twink for trying to recruit Anne Frank to his army of Beliebers, peeing in a bucket and generally being the most famous trashbag since Hefty.
Then shit gets real-ish. "I don't think your mom would really mind if a stranger whipped her son," Galifianakis says while taking off his belt. Since his bodyguards didn't rush the stage and immediately subdue Galifianakis, and Bieber didn't start tearing up like a stunt queen facing jail time, it's safe to assume no international superstars were harmed in the making of this clip.
Zach's got a point, though. Bieber's mom probably wouldn't mind if a stranger whipped her son (especially if she was still cashing them checks). "You're not a child, and that's the point," the comedian jests. "So I can hit a grown man with a belt." Yes, he can, and there are special places for that. Justin's just not old enough to get into them yet.
He deserves a spanking for inking his entire arm. If that's not a cry for help I don't know what is.
I do want to find humor in this, but it's just stupid. And Justin did just fine batting those beautiful eyes, It's Zach with the whole premises, it just didn't go anywhere.
LOL> It almost looks real.. Justin Bieber (Beevers) did a great job at looking surprised; However, Zack should have ended the mock interview after the spanking.
Let's see… his manager sets up an appearance for a website FUNNY OR DIE and Justin clearly doesn't get the joke. Even Zach doesn't seem to understand what he's supposed to do. Sad.
As he physically matures, his body is changing from a boy to a young man, but emotionally he is still about 5.
One of the most boring Funny or Dies I've seen, I was kind of hoping JB was going to pull down his pants in this clip but I guess not, still love him though.
Should have pulled down his pants. Beebs probably would have been into it.
Making the Beiber cry with a leather belt would be worth millions, if it were real.
Hitting young lesbians is just wrong. We are supposed to laugh at this?
I wouldn't mind taking a belt to JB's ass… and whatever it leads to… :)
Bieber is very woman ish beautiful. It looks just silly when he tries to dress like a thug with the face of a female model. :)

BEREA, Ohio -- The NFL determined Monday, according to a league source, that the Bengals' game-winning 41-yard touchdown pass was perfectly legal -- and that Browns were just taking a quick nap during the quick snap.
The source said officials reviewed the play and found "no substitution violation" on the part of the Bengals, who went up, 20-17, en route to their 27-17 victory.
Yes, the Bengals did change personnel on the play, but the Browns had "ample time" to do the same before Cincinnati snapped the ball with 14 seconds left on the play clock, the source said. If the Browns hadn't had ample time, the play would've been illegal -- which is what coach Pat Shurmur thought after the game had happened.
The only thing the officials did wrong, the source said, was miss the fact the Browns had 12 men on the field. If they'd been flagged for that, Cinci would have declined, and the TD would have stood.
Instead, the Browns stood frozen in their defensive huddle, trying to straighten out their goofed-up personnel and get their call in, while Bruce Gradkowski took the snap and launched the pass to rookie A.J. Green. Joe Haden took off after him, but Green had a 20-yard spot.
"It's just a situation where they caught us off guard," said linebacker Scott Fujita. "It's a disappointing play. They caught the whole organization asleep on that one. Hats off to them, they snuck one by us and it's a shame that it came down to that."
Fujita said whether or not the play was legal, "no one really cares. We should've had better consciousness to what was going on on the field -- and on the sidelines the same thing -- just from the top down, it was not good for any one of us."
He even blamed himself for not calling the timeout.
"Typically, in a situation like that if I would've noticed, I probably would've just called it," he said. "I should've called it. Generally we're supposed to get permission from the sideline before we can call a timeout on defense. But me being the crusty old bastard I am, I should've noticed it and I should have called it."
Shurmur reviewed the play and concluded there are no excuses.
"If they no-huddle or quick huddle, we have to get out there and cover down," he said. "If that doesn't happen properly, let's try to blow it dead, call a timeout. I don't care if we're all standing in the middle holding hands. Somebody has to cover those [two wideouts]. We practice it, they know it. It's a hard lesson to learn. We'll make sure that never happens again."
Adding to the confusion, the Browns had an extra defensive back on the field. Therefore, they had 12 confused men instead of 11.
Dimitri Patterson, who missed the previous play and others with an aggravated ankle injury, ran out onto the field. But he forgot to tell secondary coach Jerome Henderson he was going back in.
"Usually when I go in, I tell Henderson, 'I'm good now,'" said Patterson. "You know, I didn't tell him."
Henderson, thinking Patterson was still ailing, sent rookie Buster Skrine in to replace him. But when Skrine got to the huddle, he saw Patterson was already there.
"[Henderson] didn't know Dimitri was in, so there were 12 of us in there," said Skrine. "But that didn't really affect why we didn't break the huddle."
Did he try to get off the field?
"No, because I thought we were in dime," he said. "I ran over to the other side of the field."
Did Jackson ever get the call from defensive coordinator Dick Jauron in his headset? Was the defensive staff thrown off by the extra nickel back on the field?
"We all had our eyes on D'Qwell waiting for the call," said Fujita. "So it was one of those things that we were in the middle of a personnel change and everything was just kind of frozen and then bam, they came out in two-point stances. I think they'd been gearing up to do that, and we were slow coming out of the huddle earlier, but that's on all of us. We just have to be quicker and have a greater sense of urgency."
Related stories
Said Patterson: "They huddled for a quick second, lined up, they just caught us sleeping. That's all it was. Fair play. Fair play. Tough deal."
Fujita admitted the loss hurts even more because of the way it went down.
"As much as we say we've already turned the page, I mean it's going to haunt me tonight, tomorrow and then once I start watching film on Indy tomorrow morning, I'll move past it," he said. "But yeah, things like that, they hurt and the more you hurt the more it shows you care, so that's just the way this business rolls."

He was also fined $5,000.
"Mr. Chiappone broke the law, as well as the oath he took as a state assemblyman to honestly serve the people of New Jersey," Attorney General Paula Dow said in a statement. "As a result of our prosecution, he will never again hold public office in New Jersey."
Authorities had accused Chiappone of pocketing paychecks for legislative aides, then using the money for a 2005 campaign and personal expenses.
He was indicted on seven counts, including conspiracy, official misconduct, theft by deception, tampering with public records, falsifying records and concealment of campaign contributions.
Chiappone said he pleaded guilty to one of those charges so prosecutors would drop charges against his wife, who worked on his campaign and was also indicted.
He won reelection last year while under indictment, but he forfeited his Assembly seat when he pleaded guilty in June. Jason O'Donnell, the public safety director for the city of Bayonne, was sworn in as his replacement on Monday.
Chiappone and his lawyer did not return calls requesting comment.

Relationships with those we love are some of the most significant factors in our happiness and mental well-being. Disharmony in relationships – partners, family or friends – causes frustration and sadness, but psychotherapy can help. I meet with couples, siblings, parents and children - often together - but there are times when other people in our relationships are unavailable or unwilling to seek therapy. Nevertheless, therapy can still help individuals resolve relationship problems even if those others aren't present. Sometimes, despite all our best efforts, a relationship needs to end. In that case, I help individuals and families navigate the challenges of break-ups and divorce.

My heart weeps in horror as I watch the scenes from Newtown, Connecticut where a man shot and killed over twenty individuals. I can only imagine the terror the parents living in this rural town of just over 27,000 people have felt all morning as news spread about this devastating incident. The faces of children crying are broadcasted on television sets all over our nation as people sit glued to the latest news blip from this latest in a series of devastating shootings.
I can only imagine the journey ahead for the children and families connected to Newtown. How many tears, nightmares, and moments of dread will await them in the near future as the hearts of this community attempt to mend after this travesty?
While talks are sure to commence about what could have been done to prevent this horror, for now the focus seems best on helping the families of Newtown and their relatives restore a sense of safety and security. No doubt for some of us who work with children, there will be a sense of dread by-proxy that will result as little ears tune in to the events, raising questions of their own personal safety. If over twenty people in a Newtown, Connecticut elementary school could be so brutally murdered today, what of our safety in our own communities?
And these little hearts likely whisper a very real question to be considered in days to come. What does it say when we as a nation have so frequent these mass murders, this most recent of which strikes a more severe tune as we ponder the reality that someone had the audacity to murder children in their rural elementary school!?
I encourage you all who work with children and families to offer comfort and to encourage parents to set some boundaries in how much dramatic news television children are permitted to watch. Today is a day to mourn and help the individuals and families express their feelings of loss and restore a semblance of safety. Tomorrow there are very serious questions to be raised about why this keeps happening in our country, now including the most innocent and incapable of defending themselves, our children.

The pr war is over. Tiger Woods lost.
And, like all public figures who encounter personal difficulties, he lost because he listened to the advice of his attorney and his agent.
The first reaction of lawyers when confronted with any issue is: "Don't say anything to anybody --- ever."
The first reaction of agents is: "Deny everything."
Taken together, these bits of counsel guarantee that, whatever the story, it will spin out of control, dominate the blogosphere and tabloids and portray Woods in the worst possible light.
To make matters worse, the other woman identified as the cause of Woods' alleged domestic difficulty, at first denied even knowing him and less than 24 hours later hired the most shameless ambulance chaser attorney in the country.
The continued refusal by Woods and his wife to submit to an interview by police investigating his early morning accident --- hitting a fire hydrant and then whacking a tree --- simply fuels the speculation that they're hiding something, not because it is criminal but because it is embarrassing.
It is somewhat understandable that Woods is concerned with preserving the reputation he's established not only as one of the most outstanding athletes in the nation, but as a devoted family man as well. At a time when role models in professional sports are in short supply, Woods stands out as an example of the rewards to be had through hard work and honesty. It's not for nothing that he's on the Wheaties box.
He's also been compensated handsomely as a direct result of his personal conduct and behavior. His image sells hundreds of millions of dollars worth of athletic equipment, cars, clothing and men's toiletries, among other things. A few months ago, it was reported that Woods had become the first professional athlete to achieve a net worth in excess of one billion dollars.
It easy to understand the angst of his agent and his advice to deny everything. If Woods' earning power drops, so does that of the agent. Better, in his view at least, to stonewall the cops and the media, hope the entire episode blows over, and the product endorsement contracts remain solid.
There are but two witnesses --- Woods and his wife --- to what transpired in their home prior to the auto accident and neither one is talking.
What is not in dispute is that at two thirty in the morning, a time when most people who are not working are fast asleep, Woods drove his car into a fire hydrant and a tree. When police and emergency personnel arrived, Woods was lying in the street outside his home, semi-conscious, bleeding from cuts to his face and his wife standing over him.
Police were told that Woods' wife used a golf club to smash the rear windows of the car and assisted in extricating him.
When it was revealed that the collision with the hydrant and the tree was at such a low speed that the vehicle's air bags did not deploy, suspicion arose that perhaps Mrs. Woods had used the nine iron on him as her way of letting him know how she felt about the rumors of his dalliance with another woman.
Whether there is substance to any of the rumors and speculation that have swirled around Woods since the accident, the perception is growing that there is much more here than meets the eye. When an information vacuum is created, do not be surprised at what rushes in to fill it.
Had Woods, with his wife at his side, stood on the steps of his home and told the assembled reporters that his early morning trip was nothing more than running an errand and that he merely lost control of his car backing into the street, his version would have been accepted at face value.
He should have drawn upon the immense reservoir of good will he had built up over the years with the media, flashed that brilliant smile the nation sees on television commercials, and cracked a joke or two about usually hitting trees with a golf ball rather than a car, or confining his driving to golf courses rather than the public streets. Then, arm around his wife, walked back into his house.
Instead, he called his lawyer and his agent and they gave him the advice which is hard wired in the DNA of the both of them --- clam up.
Stiffing the media and telling them they won't be told what happened only whets their appetite to work all the harder to discover what happened, a particularly dangerous path to follow in this day of twenty-four hour cable news and instant blogs.
It is, in all probability, too late for Woods to recover and get ahead of the story. He's boxed in at this point, unable to say anything further without punching holes in his credibility but unable to do anything to halt the gossip and speculation either.
He's lost the war the way most wars are lost --- by taking lousy advice from people whose arrogance blinds them to common sense. They probably won't suffer in the long term, but Tiger's had a few stripes peeled off him.

Islander Pub to close Saturday, Aug. 3, will open in Aviara in the fall
The Islander Pub & Restaurant has one more week to remain in its current space until it must move out. The closing day is set for Saturday, Aug. 3.
"The owners of this building are really working hard to help us," said Brian Patton, who owns The Islander. "We are trying to stay open for as long as possible."
A demolition permit for the building still has yet to be issued. The restaurant was initially scheduled to close this weekend, July 27. Next week, it will be open with a limited menu and hours.
The Islander's new location in Aviara won't be ready to open until late September or October — leaving a long gap after closing.
The new location is approximately 70 percent complete, and The Islander received its final electrical permit from the city on Tuesday. With 5,960 square feet including the outdoor patio, the new location will have a total capacity of 237 occupants and 90 parking stalls in the garage.
In a more contemporary decor featuring northwest timber, there will be 12 booths, numerous tables and a separate bar in the back. Larger parties can be accommodated, and outdoor patio seating is anticipated by the spring of 2014.
"We are working feverishly to get our new place open," said Patton, who has a home on West Mercer Way. From Belfast, Northern Ireland, he has resided in the Seattle area for 30 years.
Patton owns The Dubliner Irish Pub in Fremont and four other local restaurants on golf courses, including Willows Run in Redmond. He started The Islander with a partner, Mick McHugh, of F.X. McRory's. Patton became the sole owner early on and the restaurant then developed as a bar. Now, McManus has accepted a business partnership from Patton and will remain the head chef.
The Islander has occupied the space above True Value for 13 years, after other restaurants. It has a total staff of 28.
"This spot is going to be missed by a lot of people," said chef Scott McManus, a Wallingford resident. McManus attended the Pittsburgh International Culinary Academy and other schools, and worked at the Golf Club at Newcastle before joining The Islander five years ago.
With a larger commercial kitchen in Aviara, The Islander will be able to add breakfast to the menu on weekdays. Brunch will be available on weekends. Menu prices will remain the same, and the menu will be expanded. The Islander will continue to use local ingredients - all seafood, for example, comes from Freshy's. Stumptown Coffee will also be offered.
The Islander's new address at Aviara will be 2441 76th Ave. S.E., Suite 150.
