biden. i don't think he's worried about being perceived as talking down to paul ryan. >> reporter: and the personal moments could matter, too. biden showed his emotional side during his last debate. >> look, i understand what it's like to be a single parent. when my wife and daughter died and my two sons were gravely injured, i understand what it's like as a parent to wonder what it's like if your kid's going to make it. >> reporter: and because the two men have never gone head to head against each other, in this debate just like last week's, anything could happen. anderson cooper, cnn, new york. >> that's it for me. thanks for watching. she's no don lemon, but that's probably a good thing. ashleigh banfield picks it up from here. take it away. >> don lemon, good to see you. thank you, my friend. hi, everybody, good to you. 8:00 a.m., wake up on the west coast because we've got talking to do. right now in washington, the ultimate judges of right and wrong in america are faced with a question that they and we and generations before us have been
11:01 am
asking and answering in many different ways. how much does skin color matter? if you think it's a closed book, well, abigail fisher may have thought so, too. until she got a rejection letter from the university of texas in 2008. race is one of several factors that ut considers in applicants who don't get in automatically based on their grades. abigail says her race may have cost her a texas education. and today as we speak, the highest court in the land is hearing her very case. it is the supreme court's first so-called affirmative action case in a full decade almost. and the outcome of this case could reach far beyond college admissions. cnn's senior legal analyst and an expert on the supreme court, jeffrey toobin, joins me this hour live from san francisco. and jeff, before i tap into your extraordinary wealth of expertise on the supreme court and get your insight, i want to
11:02 am
lay some groundwork and let our colleague, joe johns, come in first and tell everyone just more about how this case came to be. >> reporter: abigail fisher dream of going to the university of texas at austin for most of her life. after applying, she didn't get in. attending louisiana state university instead. but the rejection from ut led fisher to file a lawsuit against the school claiming she was squeezed out, unfairly denied admission because of her race. she's white. she said in a statement, "there were people in my class with lower grades who weren't in all the activities i was in who were being accepted into ut, and the only other difference between us was the color of our skin." she declined an interview with cnn. edward blum recruited abigail fisher to file the lawsuit. >> the most important question is should a university judge a student by his or her skin color when it comes time for admission? and the answer is no. >> reporter: here's how the admissions process at ut works. the top 10% of each high school class statewide gets in automatically.
11:03 am
for those below the top 10% like abigail fisher who was in the 11th percent, the university uses what it calls a holistic review where race is one of many factors considered. one that university president bill powers says doesn't get much weight and didn't play a role in fisher's rejection. >> we take ethnicity as one of many, in factors in a holistic review to make sure that the three quarters coming in under automatic admission, that we add to that with a quarter coming in where we can look for these other characteristics including diversity. >> i think she's fighting the wrong fight. >> reporter: minority student leaders on campus like bradley poole agree with powers that the process is fair despite fisher's claims. >> seeing as race is probably one of the least parts of the holistic review process, i feel like it's harping on one of the things -- on the easiest thing that she could have went against.
11:04 am
>> reporter: others take offense that the lawsuit implies some minority students are less deserving of admission than their white counterparts. >> to hear people saying that some of us latinos got in here easily and the only reason we got in here is because of our race, that's really disappointing. we work just as hard as anyone else did to get here to ut. >> reporter: conservative groups say it's not just about getting in. the u.s. civil rights commission says studies show that using racial preferences can hurt minorities by starting them out near the bottom of their classes. >> if they're towards the bottom of whatever class they go to, they are much more likely to give up on an ambition to major in science and engineering. >> almost a decade ago, then justice sandra day o'connor wrote a majority opinion that said that the university of michigan law school had a compelling interest in promoting class diversity and suggested affirmative action might still be needed for another 25 years. o'connor has since left the court, leading to speculation that the court's conservatives
11:05 am
could now strike a blow to preferences. joe johns, cnn, washington. >> thank you, joe johns. so jeff toobin, this is the question. does this texas case raise any new and distinctive questions about this, about affirmative action, or is this one of those second bites at the apple, merely another opportunity for a different supreme court with brand-new justices to kill what some people call reverse discrimination? >> the court could do either of two things in this case. they could treat it as similar to the case from the university of michigan nine years ago, or they could simply just overrule grutter. what makes this case so important is that there was no conflict in the lower courts about these cases. the court really reached out and found this case which really indicates that they are interested in overturning what has been the law of the land for the past nine years. >> well, that sounds surprising
11:06 am
to a lot of people who don't know that that can happen. most people think this is a vicious battle to the very end, the end being the supreme court, but you're saying this is a new statement as to where we are. and you just heard joe johns talk about sandra day o'connor, referring to 25 years being the possible battle ahead in order for affirmative action to effectuate, what it means to effectuate. my question is this. we're only about ten years into what o'connor thought would be a quarter-century effort. is this the beginning of the conversation towards the end of the need for affirmative action? >> well, it certainly seems to be -- it certainly seems to be, given the composition of the court. what matters at the supreme court is who is on the supreme court. precedents can change. rulings can change. the replacement of o'connor by samuel alito has changed the court in many ways. alito is clearly a much more conservative justice. he has indicated in other cases
11:07 am
much more skepticism, even hostility, to the idea of any sort of racial preferences. chief justice roberts also very uncomfortable with any sort of racial preferences. this case seems to suggest that anthony kennedy will be the swing vote. we thought that about the health care case, we were wrong, or at least i was wrong about that. but given the long records that all the justices have on racial and civil rights issues, it really does look like kennedy will be in the middle of this case. >> so -- and that's fascinating. and we always ask, you know, where do each of these justices seem to stand from what they've done before? i have a two-pronged question for you about that. number one, precedent, you mentioned it, because we've been going for nine years on precedent that was established in the michigan case. with this case, though, we could end up with a very different decision because one justice can't be involved. can you explain this? >> well, elena kagan, president obama's second appointee to the
11:08 am
supreme court, she has recused herself. she apparently -- the justices don't explain why they recuse themselves, but it seems clear that she worked on this case while she was solicitor general of the united states. so that takes a liberal vote away, making the case even harder for the supporters of affirmative action to win in this case. >> what happens if we have 4-4, then, a tie? does that change the way precedent actually is considered? >> well, there's a weird rule at the supreme court about 4-4 cases. if a case is 4-4, the court does not issue an opinion. it simply affirms the lower court decision, but it doesn't establish a new precedent. it basically kicks the can down the road, a 4-4 decision. in this case, the university of texas won in the court of appeals. so it would preserve affirmative action for now, but a 4-4 vote would certainly suggest just how
11:09 am
precarious the idea of affirmative action in admissions is. >> and would suggest that that can is going to land down the road with another challenge at the high court which means you and i will have another conversation potentially down the road. >> sooner rather than later. >> sooner rather than later. jeff toobin, you are the best in the biz on this, live in san francisco for us. there's a reason he's in san francisco, folks. he is talking about his brand-new book, "the oath: the obama white house and the supreme court." it's on the book stands now. jeff toobin, thank you.

11:12 am
the deadly attack on the u.s. mission in benghazi, libya, last month has become one of the most contentious issues in this current battle for the white house. we've got some live pictures for you of capitol hill, and it's important because the first congressional hearing on the attack and everything that surrounded it is about to get under way. and that's about 47 minutes or so away from now. expected to testify at the hearing, two senior state department officials in charge of embassy security. not just in libya but around the world. and also expected to testify, other state department and military officials as well. here's the critical question, though. was there a breakdown in security and intelligence?
11:13 am
and if there was, why was there a breakdown? arwa damon who arrived in benghazi shortly after the attack pieces together how it came down. >> reporter: amid the ashes, soot and debris, remnants of the life that was. it's all that remained in the unguarded u.s. consulate compound in benghazi when cnn arrived on the scene three days after the september 11th attack. eyewitnesses told us it was a complex assault. the compound's first line of defense easily breached. according to one of the libyan guards who was stationed at the gate, armed with only a radio, the assault happened simultaneously from three different directions. he says that he initially heard chanting growing increasingly louder and then suddenly the gunfire, the rocket-propelled grenades and other heavy machine gunfire all began attacking the compound. this is where ambassador chris stevens slept. part of a small suite also meant
11:14 am
to be a makeshift safe room. here on the floor between the bed and the chair is where cnn found the ambassador's journal. it is also the same room where the ambassador was located hours after the attack first began. separated by smoke from his security detail. the u.s. initially said the assault was the result of a demonstration turned violent. >> putting together the best information that we have available to us today. our current assessment is that what happened in benghazi was, in fact, initially a spontaneous reaction to what had just transpired hours before in cairo, almost a copycat of the demonstrations against our facility in cairo which were prompted, of course, by the video. >> reporter: that was not the case. the state department is now saying that there was nothing unusual prior to the attack. at 8:30 p.m., everything was
11:15 am
calm. and just over an hour later, armed men launched their assault. libyan officials say they warned the americans on many occasions about the growing threat from extremists. the compound had already been attacked in june. and there had been numerous attacks on other western interests in benghazi. and yet it remained a poorly fortified soft target. documents recently obtained by cnn indicate that the state department's top security official in libya asked for extra security but received no response from superiors. why? it's just one of many questions still to be answered. arwa damon, cnn, beirut. >> and again, that from our cnn senior international correspondent, arwa damon. so could this deadly attack in benghazi have been prevented? that seems to be the $64,000 question. and the congressional hearing that i mentioned before is just
11:16 am
moments away, hoping to get some answers, but will they? our foreign affairs reporter elise labott joins me. are we getting to answers with this, or is this a political stunt to highlight something this close to the election to suggest that the government didn't know what it was doing and could have saved the lives of those men? >> well, ashleigh, it depends who you ask. if you ask democrats, it's the former. this is a political stunt to damage president obama just weeks before the election. but the republican chair of the committee, daniel issa, is saying listen, something went wrong, we need to get to the bottom of this. and indeed you're going to hear today from senior security officials that were posted in benghazi in months leading up to the attack, not on the day of the attack, posted in libya that say, look, we did send messages to the state department asking for additional security, asking for security teams that were on the ground to be extended beyond their mandate over the summer. and so these requests were apparently either denied or not responded to.
11:17 am
and so you'll hear from these security officials, and you'll hear from charlene lamb, a deputy assistant secretary who a lot of these requests went to. and i think a lot of people are wondering why she didn't respond to them, why, perhaps, she denied their requests. and we're also going to hear from one of the top officials at the state department, patrick kennedy, that i is going to argue that what the consulate -- what the diplomatic hosts faced that night could not have been predicted, was unprecedented in recent diplomatic history and no reasonable amount of security could have fended off the 40-some armed -- heavily armed -- extremists that they found that night, ashleigh. >> but if that's the political answer -- i'm not suggesting that you'll have the answer to this question -- if the political answer is to release last night all of this information to the media, the tick tock of what happens to ambassador stevens and the others, doesn't that still give ammunition to the opponents of president obama by saying you should have known better that the entire situation was this
11:18 am
ugly and that if even the security you were requesting wasn't enough for what you now say was unprecedented, well, that should have been a situation that no one should have been there in the first place, our men and our women in that mission shouldn't have been there. >> well, it's a good question, and i think they'll also be investigating -- we're not going to hear from anyone in the intelligence community. i think perhaps that might be down the line. but certainly there are a lot of people that say this was an intelligence failure. there were warnings. the libyans, as arwa said in her piece, increasingly warning the u.s. about extremists in the area. we know that the u.s. was very concerned about that. in fact, ambassador stevens, in his own diary, found by cnn mentioned growing extremist presence in the area. i think today it's going to be about security. it's going to be about whether there was enough. and at the end of the day, what senior officials were telling us in this conference call with reporters last night is, listen. we know that it's risky, but this is what diplomats do.
11:19 am
ambassadors do. they have to be able to travel through the country. and i think you might see a lot more calls for regulations for specific security requirements for ambassadors who travel, but certainly that's going to be one of the questions, ashleigh. >> yeah, i'm just getting some quick last-minute notes here. testimony from allen nordstrom, the original security officer who was based in tripoli but left before this attack. just quickly as i scan these quick notes, he says -- he's going to say -- these are his prepared remarks -- while i'd loved to have security personnel, the fact is that the system we had in place was regularly tested and appeared to work as planned despite high turnover of ds agents on the ground. i hope this is less about politics, more about information today. >> absolutely. >> we're watching it. elise, thank you. appreciate that. we'll be monitoring that hearing. like i said, we're about, say, 41 minutes or so away from the beginning or at least the expected beginning. one phillips' colon health probiotic cap each day

a slew of brand-new polls including polls from cnn might just have the white house squirming and the romney campaign doing some high fives.
11:23 am
maybe even popping some champagne corks. or are they? let's take a trip down memory lane and look back over the last year or so when it comes to polls. romney has lost the lead in the polls five times to fellow republicans. remember those primaries? first it was michele bachmann after iowa. and by the way, a lot of these poll swings came after debates. a year ago it was herman cain and then newt gingrich out on top. and remember rick perry before his infamous "oops" comment, again, during a debate? and then there's romney's longest challenger, rick santorum, who sat at the top of the pole position for quite some time. and don't forget, there were 22 of these debates. so plenty of room for swing time. so romney's been here before. this is not his first time at the rodeo, that behind-to-ahead rodeo that we see in the polls quite often. cnn's political editor, paul steinhauser, is live for us in danville, kentucky, where the vice presidential debate is just
11:24 am
one day away, getting under way tomorrow night. so latest polls, obviously this is a good time for the romney camp. it's nice to see a big bounce after the debate. but -- and that's a big but -- polls are finicky things. and they have to know in that camp that this is the precarious position, paul. >> reporter: yeah, they're not taking anything for granted, romney campaign officials saying that, listen, they see polls go up, they see polls go down. they're staying with their same strategy. thank you for that trip down memory lane. i've been covering this race for a year and a half, so i appreciate those memories. this is interesting. the polls were starten to tighten up even before last week's debate. take a look at this, though. this is our cnn poll of polls. this averages the three national surveys of likely voters, live operator, nonpartisan surveys, and look at that, mitt romney, 48%, president obama, 47%. in the previous polls before the debate, the president had the slight advantage. that's national. what about the states?
11:25 am
because the race for the white house is a race for the states and their electoral votes. let's go to ohio, 18 electoral votes. our cnn/orc poll indicates the president with a four-point advantage. ashleigh, that's within the sampling error. guess what? the polls done before the debate had the president with much larger leads. let's go to colorado. here's an american research group poll. you can see mitt romney with a four-point advantage, again, within the sampling error. but you go back a few weeks, the president had the advantage in colorado. similar with other polls in other states that have come out over the last 48 hours. so yeah, it looks like mitt romney has gotten a bounce, but hey, you said it and i'll say it as well, polls are a snapshot of how people feel now. the election is 27 days away. polls change all the time, ashleigh. >> or the president would be up against herman cain right now. it's a perfect example. >> reporter: there you go. >> which would be so fun to cover. i just want to have that out there. i think jon stewart of "the daily show" would agree. quickly, you mentioned ohio and that poll is closing.
11:26 am
there's a great stump effort today with chris christie, the new jersey governor, who's so exciting on the trail. i want your opinion as to whether that is a critical issue going into this debate or whether just the vp debate performance is what's critical going into thursday's big-time in kentucky? >> reporter: yeah, the vp debates, you know, usually don't matter that much. but here's why this vp debate will matter so much right now because the momentum has shifted to mitt romney. so the romney campaign doesn't want anything to deflect from that. they're hoping for a strong performance from paul ryan. on the other side, of course, the obama campaign is hoping for a breakout performance from joe biden to kind of possibly blunt this rise in the polls by mitt romney. ashleigh, check this out. "the thrill in the ville." this is what they're putting out here. why? because remember 12 years ago, there was another vice presidential debate right here at center college in danville, kentucky. that was between dick cheney and joe lieberman. another trip down memory lane, ashleigh.
11:27 am
>> do they have anybody doing the voice-over? let's get ready to thrill? that's really lame. that was my worst attempt at humor this year. >> reporter: very nice. >> paul steinhauser, nice to see you. you can watch vice president joe biden and congressman paul ryan tackling the issues, the big thrill. it's the vice presidential debate, our live coverage begins at 7:00 eastern tomorrow evening. if you don't have the chance to be in front of a tv, get out your ipad, your laptop, cnn.com has all the action live as well.

belthe low expectations gam continues on the campaign trail. you might remember before last week's big presidential debate, both of the sides of that debate
11:36 am
were downplaying their own debating skills. expectations. and at the same time, they were pointing out their rival's strengths. expectations. and now ahead of tomorrow's vice presidential debate, same old, same old. mitt romney is setting the barlow for his running mate, paul ryan. governor romney sat down for an exclusive interview with our wolf blitzer yesterday. before we talk about that, i want to listen specifically to what the governor had to say about expectations, wolf. here he is. >> are you confident, governor, that paul ryan will take on joe biden thursday night the way you took on the president? >> you know, i don't know how paul will deal with this debate. obviously, the vice president has done, i don't know, 15 or 20 debates during his lifetime. experienced debater. this is, i think, paul's first debate. i may be wrong. he may have done something in high school, i don't know. it will be a new experience for paul. but i'm sure he'll do fine.
11:37 am
>> so wolf, here's my question. does anybody at this stage of the game, one week later, think that setting low expectations actually helped mitt romney in his win over president obama, or was it all about performance on that stage? >> there's no doubt that mitt romney did a very good job in the debate against the president. we were expecting -- i think everyone, especially the president's own supporters, his advisors, his friends, they were supporting, he would do a much better job. the expectations for the president, you know, he won a tough campaign four years ago including against hillary clinton. then he won against john mccain. he did fine in those debates. and now he's been president of the united states for four years. so they were expecting he would do an excellent job. obviously, he did not do an excellent job. right now looking ahead to the debate tomorrow night, ashleigh, i think these are both really qualified, smart guys. joe biden's got a ton of experience. but let's not forget, paul ryan, he's only in his early 40s, but he's been around in washington
11:38 am
for 20 years, going back to when he worked for jack kemp, when he worked for bill bennett in power of america. he's got a ton of washington experience as well. and when it comes to domestic economic issues, budget-related issues, he's really at the top of his game. where he is vulnerable, in my opinion, will be on some of the national security issues. this is an area where biden really knows his stuff. he was a former chairman of the foreign relations committee, obviously. he's been vice president of the united states for these past four years. so we'll see how they do on the national security foreign policy issues. but on domestic issues, that will be a strong match. >> so wolf, is the obama camp looking to joe biden at this point to try to pick up some of this lost ground at least in the polls anyway? and if so, are they using the expectations game the same way that we saw mitt romney using the expectations game? are they trying to suggest that joe biden might not do that well? >> no, they're pretty confident in joe biden. they think he'll do well.
11:39 am
i don't think they believe, and it's probably unrealistic to think that the biden/ryan debate will turn things around all that dramatically unless one of these guys makes a major, major flub, it probably won't. what could turn things around, once again, just as the first debate turned things in romney's favor, what could turn things around is the second presidential debate which is going to be taking place next week. that town hall format. candy crowley of cnn being the moderator for that debate, that could turn things around if the president comes out and does a really great job and romney has an off day, let's say. but, you know, let's get through this vice presidential debate first and see how these two guys do. >> i know, i'm excited. i'm as excited for this one as i was for the first sarah palin debate. >> that excited, wow. >> isn't that crazy? >> yeah. >> i'm a bit of a geek when it comes to this stuff, as you are, i know. big tease ahead, wolf, because wolf blitzer and all of our

[ rv guy ] enbrel may not work for everyone -- and may not clear you completely, but for many, it gets skin clearer fast, within 2 months, and keeps it clearer up to 9 months.

11:42 am
tuberculosis, lymphoma, other cancers, and nervous system and blood disorders have occurred. before starting enbrel, your doctor should test you for tuberculosis and discuss whether you've been to a region where certain fungal infections are common. don't start enbrel if you have an infection like the flu. tell your doctor if you're prone to infections, have cuts or sores, have had hepatitis b, have been treated for heart failure, or if, while on enbrel, you experience persistent fever, bruising, bleeding, or paleness. if you've had enough, ask your dermatologist about enbrel. mitt romney battling for votes in the all-important state of ohio today. you hear everybody talk about ohio, and there are some new polls that show the gap between the candidates is closing. in ohio, that critical state. governor romney is in mount vernon, ohio, where he's holding a town hall meeting set to start literally seconds from now.
11:43 am
he's in the building with governor chris christie from new jersey. the two of them are set to take the stage together. so it should be fun to watch. that's for sure. jim acosta is there live. he's been following the governor. so i heard they're in the building. they're still doing some glad-handing, meeting people in the crowd. set the stage of the people and that particular location before they begin to speak live. >> reporter: yeah, ashleigh, and we got a sneak preview of the message from these two politicians last night at a joint event that they had in cuyahoga falls, ohio, in the northern part of the state. right now we're just north of columbus, ohio. and we heard chris kis ty warmiwarm i warming up the crowd. he was a runner-up in the vice presidential selection process for romney, but he is a popular trail buddy, if you will, out on the campaign trail for mitt romney. and we heard chris christie say last night at that event in cuyahoga falls -- and going back to a line that president obama used at an event recently when
11:44 am
he said he couldn't change washington from the inside, that it has to be changed from the outside. and chris christie said last night at that event that, well, president obama should go ahead and take that trip back to chicago if he can't change washington from the inside. so we may hear that line again from chris christie. but it's going to be interesting to watch this event here in the next few moments, ashleigh. this will be a town hall event. so mitt romney and chris christie presumably will be taking questions from the audience here. one of the questions that's been raise in the last 24 hours is about the issue of abortion. mitt romney in an editorial board meeting with "the des moines register" yesterday talked about how he would not pursue legislation that would restrict abortion rights in this country. so it will be interesting to see if that question comes up. these kinds of questions don't typically come up, but it could. >> i want to just jump in because he's a terrific orator, and i want to hear some of the comments live from chris christie. let's listen in for a moment.
11:45 am
>> -- the truth about these problems and that some of the solutions aren't going to be easy, and they may hurt. but we know the answers. and what we're missing now more than anything else, in my opinion, is someone to grab us all by the hand and lead us there. to say, i know the way, and so do you. and i will take the shots that are necessary. i will take the hits that are necessary. i will take the criticism that will come from those who want to pursue the easier path because that's what you're hiring me to do. and that's what this election's really about in my opinion, everybody. is who's going to do that. and if you look at the two choices we have, there's no doubt in my mind that the man who understands how to make success happen in this country, the man who understands the true power of the american people,
11:46 am
the person who understands that government is not the solution to these problems, she said i might say it this way, so i'm going to say it, karen. we've got to get government the hell out of the way and let you succeed. i'll end with this. i watched the democratic national convention a few weeks ago. i did it as a sacrifice and a service to my nation. i made sure my son, patrick, brought me a big bottle of water so i could remain hydrated at all times. i did not want to lose consciousness. i wanted to hear all of it. and the biggest difference in this election is not some of the things that governor romney is saying. because i'm an old prosecutor. and when you're winning as a prosecutor, what you do is you
11:47 am
don't use your own words, you use the words of the person that you're making the case against. so remember this. at that convention, the president's people, his party, said this is what they stand for. government is the only thing that we all belong to. now, i want you to listen to that phrase really carefully now one more time. government is the only thing we all belong to. well, see, i come from new jersey. and there's a lot more democrats than republicans in new jersey. take my word for it. i'm an endangered species there. but even in new jersey, they taught me this simple truth. we don't belong to government. the government belongs to us.
11:48 am
and i am proud to be here today with a man who understands that to his very core, who understands that the true power and majesty of this country is in its people and their ingenuity, their integrity and their work ethic, all of which is displayed here at this company, ingenuity, integrity and a great work ethic. he will unleash your power to remake america again. he is my friend, and i will guarantee this, everybody. you're about to hear from the next president of the united states of america, mitt romney. >> thank you. thank you. congressman. chris. thank you. thank you so much. thank you. very generous. thank you. thank you. thank you so much.
11:49 am
jim. thank you. thank you, chris, for those words and that generous introduction. good to have governor christie here. i'm sorry to take him away from new jersey for the day, but he's on the bus with me and your great senator, rob portman. thank you, senator portman, also for being here with us and getting us started today. thank you, congressman gibbs for getting us started as well. you're going to get re-elected. we need you in washington. i look forward to that, congressman. and special thanks also to karen and jim. jim who got this going, who figured out how to design a pump that the world now considers the world's standard. thank you, jim, for your great work. stand up so people know who you are. stand up. oh, everyone else is standing up. thank you.
11:50 am
for those that are -- now, i'm hardly an expert on compressors, but for those who don't know what jim did, he designed -- he didn't just manufacture these pumps from someone else's drawings, he designed the technology, made the technology work that creates the pumps that are still that is are still being used today and that are that world standard and built this enterprise and, in fact, jim, you and your family and these people who are sitting around us, you did build it. this was not not by government. thank you, jim. now, karen is around here somewhere. where did she go? right there in the center. she's running the operation now. learn from her mom and dad and is running this business masterfully well. congratulations. i appreciate your comments and your words, and chris christie stealing your limelight. that's simply not fair.
11:51 am
i'm glad he blurted it out. that was very helpful. let me also tell you how appreciative i am of something we share. karen and my wife are both breast cancer survivors. champions. thank you, karen. karen was kind to remind -- in honor of all the women across america who have battled this terrible disease and know of our commitment to defeat it and to
11:52 am
provide long lives. >> let me have a chance to speak to you. i'm going to turn to you for questions in just a few moments and let you ask any questions you would like. i'll answer some, and if they're real tough, i'll have chris answer them. so you can think of those questions. a few words before we get going. we had a debate last week actually about a week ago, and that was a good experience. i enjoyed that. i think the president and i were each able to describe a vision.
11:53 am
>> make it harder for enterprises to grow and hire people. i will not raise taxes on small business. i'll not raise tax on business. i'll not raise taxes on middle income people. i won't raise taxes at all on the american people. it's a very different approach. when the president was running as a candidate four years ago, he looked at the deficits under
11:54 am
president bush and found them to be excessive and unamerican. they're about half as large as the ones he has put in place over each of the last four years. he said he was going to cut the deficit in half. he doubled it. there's no question if he was going to be re-elect, we would see trillion dollar deficits again and again and again. our marshall debt now is almost the same as our total economy, our gdp. this slows down the economy. it makes it harder for businesses to grow and hire more people and to raise wages. so unlike the president, when i finally get this shot, i will cap federal spending. i will cut federal spend and get us on track to a balanced budget. thereby other differences as well. the government is planning on through obama care cutting medicare for our current
11:55 am
retirees by $716 billion. i hi that's wrong. i think we must honor the promise made to our seniors. i will restore that funding and make sure we protect medicare. one more thing i'll mention. the president's budget calls for shrinking our military by hundreds of billions of dollars and then the sequestration idea the white house came up with, cuts it another few hundred billion. the secretary of defense has called those kinds of cuts devastating to our national security. i will not cut our military. i'll restore that funding and keep our military second to none in the world. now, there's one more place where you saw a distinction between the two of us. we were asked about how we would get the economy going and create jobs. i hope you listened carefully to the president's response because what he said was reminiscent of what he said four years ago with
11:56 am
stem husband and hiring more government workers and raising taxes. those things don't create jobs. those don't help the private sector employ more people and expand. those don't encourage entrepreneurs to start new businesses. his plans do not create jobs for the american people or rising incomes. i actually have a plan that will create 12 million new jobs and get rising incomes again. by the way, the median income of an american family over the last four years has gone down $4,300 a family. that's even as gasoline as you know has doubled in price, food costs are up, health care premiums are up $2,500 a person. these have been tough times for middle income families. so my plan one creates more jobs and two gets rising take-home pay again. how do i do it?
11:57 am
i've got five things i'll do to get this economy going. number one, we're going to take full advantage of our oil, our gas, our coal, our nuclear, and our renewables. >> what you have seen over the last four years, as you know, is additional exploration and production coming from private lands. dproomg private lands. on government land -- on government planned and in government waters the production is not up. as a matter of fact, oil production on government land is down i think 11% last year. gas production down -- both are down. that's the wrong direction. if i'm president, i will double the number of permits and licenses on federal lands and in federal waters and we're going to get the federal lands and federal waters to produce more energy just like the private sector is doing now.
11:58 am
on private lands. >> number two, we're going to open up more trade in latin mshg. we're going to crack down on cheaters. china has cheated in trade over the years. we can't have unfair trade practices. number two, we're going to make trade work for us. number three, we're going to have great training programs, so people who lose employment opportunities will find new ones in real jobs, and we're going to fix our schools by making sure we put our kids and their parents and the teachers first. we put the interest of the teachers union behind. we want to make our kids first when it comes to education. >> you're watching mitt romney who is addressing a friendly crowd in mount vernon, ohio, and you heard him reference at the top of his comments that he is at a manufacturing plant that manufactures gas compressors. these are the comments that speak well to this particular
11:59 am
crowd being introduced by governor chris christie of new jersey who has that terrific line. government needs to get the h-e-double hockey sticks out of the way so businesses can let you succeed. also want to bring up something as well that was brought up by chris christie, and that is the issue of the democratic national convention. he made a great joke about it, but he also said that in the video at the democratic national convention, it was said in a government is the only thing that we all belong to. now, via politico, the obama administration, the campaign has come out before against that campaign on the trail that said the video that was played was actually produced by the city of charlotte, and it has nothing to do with the obama for america campaign or the democratic national committee. that came from the steph charlotte, regardless of what you feel. the speech continues, as does our coverage. we have a lot more ahead.

The Cavaliers traded Ramon Sessions and Christian Eyenga to the Los Angeles Lakers for Luke Walton, Jason Kapono and a first-round pick (top 14 protected) in the 2012 NBA draft.
Sessions is averaging 10.5 points and 5.2 assists and has been a valuable leader of the Cavs' second unit, but he has a player option for next season that he is not expected to pick up. The Cavs felt forced to trade him rather than lose him to free agency after the season for nothing.
As part of the deal, the Cavs hold the right to swap the Miami Heat's first-round pick in 2013 with the Lakers' selection. The Cavs hold the Heat's pick next summer as part of the LeBron James sign-and-trade.
"Our primary focus continues to center on building this team with our young core and, most importantly, through the draft as we develop a very talented group that can play and succeed together for many years to come," Cavs General Manager Chris Grant said in a release.
Walton, 31, is in his ninth season with the Lakers. He has averaged 4.9 points and 2.9 rebounds while battling injuries throughout his career. He has one year and $6.1 million left on his contract, but the Cavs made the move for the draft pick. They now have two first-round selections both this season and next season.
Kapono, 31, was originally drafted by the Cavs in 2003. He is a 43-percent career shooter on 3-pointers, but is just 8 of 27 on 3-pointers (29.6 percent) this season. His contract is up at the end of the season.
It was difficult for the Cavs to part with Sessions, who averaged 17.8 points and 11 assists in four starts this season. He averaged
14.8 points and 6.4 assists as a starter during his two seasons in Cleveland. Sessions was acquired prior to the 2010-11 season, along with Ryan Hollins, in exchange for Delonte West.

Pyrokinesis (パイロキネシス, Pairokineshisu) is one of Gill's special attacks in the Street Fighter III series.
Executed by performing a quarter-circle forward motion and pressing punch while facing right, the attack sees Gill shoot a fireball. The angle the fireball travels at is determined by the punch button pressed; light punch fires it horizontally, medium punch fires it at roughly a 30-degree angle, and heavy punch fires it at roughly a 60-degree angle.[1] The fireball hits twice; this means it goes through most regular projectiles and cancels out most EX projectiles. It also burns the opponent on hit.
If the input is made while Gill is facing left, he will instead use Cryokinesis.

BEIJING (AP) China's Zou Kai, a gold medalist in the men's team event, won the floor exercise in Olympic gymnastics Sunday night, giving China three wins in as many attempts.
Gervasio Deferr of Spain took the silver with a powerful series of somersaults and twists, then threw kisses to the crowd. Russia's Anton Golotsutskov got the bronze.
RESULTS: Men's floor exercise final
EVER WONDER: How scoring works?
World champion Diego Hypolito of Brazil seemed headed for a medal until he fell on the landing of his final pass. Hypolito then sat nearly in tears, shaking his head back and forth.
Three-time world champ Marian Dragulescu of Romania fell on his second tumbling pass.
No American qualified for the final.

HEART skipper Fred is returning to his best but coach John Aloisi has demanded that he run "smarter".
Fred succumbed to hamstring cramp yet again on Sunday evening and his 73rd-minute withdrawal, with Heart leading 1-0, swung the pendulum Sydney FC's way.
But Aloisi praised his replacement, debutant Stefan Mauk, 17, and hailed him as a player of the future.
He said Fred would be fit for Friday's home clash with Adelaide United, but he has told the midfielder to run smarter, not harder.
"Fred had cramp again and it was a big loss for us because I think it was his best game this season," Aloisi said.
"As soon as he came off, the game started to change and we started to drop deeper, he was helping us keep the ball. But he'll be good to go for Friday.
"Fred wants to work too hard sometimes. He wants to win and do well but sometimes he pushes himself and does unnecessary running.
"I don't think he's lacking in fitness. He just needs to be a bit smarter in when he needs to press or drop in.
"But I'm happy with the way he's playing because we're seeing the Fred of old that everyone remembers.
"The boys did recovery on Sunday night and had a good meal and sleep and they'll be ready for training (local)."
Injured wingers Golgol Mebrahtu and David Williams should be available, and winger Ben Garuccio returned to Heart's youth team on Sunday.
Mauk's debut was overshadowed by Heart's late collapse and Aloisi said it was a baptism of fire for the attacking midfielder.
"It was a pity he had to come on when we were sitting back defending, but he's a really good player and impressed with his improvement and I think he'll be a very good player for us," Aloisi said.
"Stefan is a natural number 10. He makes really good forward runs. He just turned 17 and I see a big future in him. He's a player who can give us something, especially when you're chasing a game."

Ratings for Dr. Nancy M. Troast
I had a heart arrhythmia diagnosed by a cardiologist who sent her a letter detailing it. The staff including the NP never mentioned it or. Suggested follow up or medicine. The cardiologist told me I had had it for many years. I had to have clearance by Dr Troast 2 times and she never mentioned. It was "obvious on the EKG" according to the cardiac doctor. I have been told I cNt have refills for my prescriptions until I have an appt nd have only 2 weeks nd the next appt is 8 weeks away . I switched doctors and the new one I see directly and I am asked f I need medicines before my next visit. My online requests are filled promptly and correctly.
She has been my doctor for over 15 years and has seen me through many serious illnesses, I originally lived in Europe before coming to the states, first in Boston and Florida since 1985 - I wouldn't go to another doctors office if you paid me..she's the best.. I hope she outlives me by many years so I will be in her excellent care...66 and still going because of her...
About three weeks ago I was seen at the practice by a nurse practitioner and upon check out the lady working at the desk said that I needed a physical and scheduled me for one and handed me an appointment card with 4/18/2013 @ 3:30pm. I even received phone calls from the office about the appointment. I showed up for the appointment on 4/18/2013 @ 3:15pm to be told that I did not have any scheduled appointments. I was told to get the card from my car, which I did. They told me very rudely that I would not be seeing the doctor today as they did not know what happened but they did not have time for me. I explained that I had to take time off of work and that I needed medication refills. In the middle of a crowded waiting room the nurse asks me what medications I need refilled. When I questioned her she stated that if I am so unhappy with their practice that I should find a new doctor. I most definitely will, no problem
They always put me in hold, for once I needed prompt medical attention, to that they said the nurse will have to call u back and let me know if she can squeeze me in, I have always had to wait up to an hour or more sometimes!!!
This doctor runs her office like a money-making business with 5 ARNPs. It's almost impossible to actually see the doctor...and you deal with so many staff that no one really knows you or your concerns. They frequently mixed up my condition. I quit Dr. Troast & Co. and got a new doctor that actually sees me!

| Battle for Saria'a
Battle for Marwah
Operation Allah's People
The origins for the war came from the ascension of a young radical, As'ad Nejem, to the leadership position of a large, and independent political party in Yemen, known as the Umayyad's. The political party was however, a front for a rebel organization that has existed since the onset of the zombie pandemic. The organization, known as Umayyad's for Allah devoted itself to the destruction of all infected, as they saw this apocalypse as their own great flood, with Allah's devoted ones to be the only to survive.
The revolution, however, is told by the rebels to have began with the announcement that the government of Yemen will be working on a cure for the zombie virus. From that point on it is told that the Umayyad's rose up in rebellion because they could not let the weak be cured, nor the strong immune for it would provide a worst possible future for the Muslim people. In reality, it began from the government taking stricter controls on the citizens lives such as curfews and martial law. The yemeniese people couldn't take such strict controls in such a short amount of time, even those these controls we're designed to protect them. They rose up in rebellion, hundreds of rebel groups scatter across Yemen, that the Umayyad's eventually pulled under their direction and then became the leader of the revolution.

New poll: Americans support use of force against Iran
Most Americans would support the United States taking military action to stop Iran from acquiring nuclear, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.
President Bush last week said the rest of the world should join the United States in declaring that it "will not tolerate" nuclear weapons in Iran -- a vow that most Americans appear willing to back with force. By 56 percent to 38 percent, the public endorsed the use of the military to block Iran from developing nuclear arms.
The national survey of 1,024 randomly selected adults conducted June 18-22 found that support for a military action in Iran came despite rising concern about the growing number of casualties among U.S. military personnel in Iraq. About half said the current level of U.S. dead and wounded is "acceptable" -- down from two-thirds in early April. (Albawaba.com)

Emily Dickinson: The Complete Poems was a book of Emily Dickinson poetry, including the poems "Success is Counted Sweetest" and "My Life Closed Twice Before Its Close". Suzie Costello owned a copy; it was stored in a Torchwood warehouse with the rest of her possessions after her death.
Jack Harkness had Kathy Swanson buy the book when Suzie made the Torchwood Hub go into lockdown by having Max Tresilian recite "The Chariot". It cost her 20 pounds. They went through several of the poems inside, hoping for an override, when Toshiko Sato had a clever idea: maybe it wasn't a poem that would unlock the base, but a set of numbers. The book's ISBN, 0-1986-0058-5, reversed the lockdown successfully. (TV: They Keep Killing Suzie)

cheap spy sunglasses ring them. They are quite comfortable to wear, nothing special though. I found it took some time to get used to wearing them but that's probably just me being pedantic. Build quality is not very good in all honesty. The joints connecting the arms to the lenses are all plastic and needed to be tightened as they were very loose. After wearing them quite often for a few months Australia ale online for shopping ralph lauren oxford shirt case which for the mirrored look is essential. However, they are VERY dark lenses which is good for sunny days but not so great for driving etc. (In fact, on the glasses themselves they say - 'Unsuitable for driving.') Unfortunately, it is like criticising them for being TOO good! I have had them for 2 weeks and they still appear to be perfectly decent, the arms still are nice and stiff and secure etc. Excellent value for money. I just got a pair of these for a gift and they are totally cool!! The first thing I noticed was that they are not like the usual plaBudapest sunglasses for big heads hindi meaning in hindi .
sad because I was going to give it to my friend that loves purple.
Bought after reading good reviews. Not clear view at all . View is foggy/smoky even on a sunny day. Risky to use as the view is not clear. Absolute waste.
The lenses are great for the price but the frame is way t ralph lauren hat t fault them. Perfect and worth buying!
Ordered these on Thursday they were here on Friday ;) they are 100% genuine and I am 100% pleased with them. My boyfriend got a pair last year and I've wanted to get them ever since but begrudged paying the full wack so really happy with my bargin!! Ignore bad feedback as I couldn't be happier
Really impressed - was reluctant to order - seemed too cheap!!
Had problems with entry system to property left a note f army sunglasses ost certainly would've paid for either.
Does the trick. Not overly strong so expect it to last a summer only. But I do like them.
Do not in any way buy these glasses. Worst glasses iv ever ordered. Dont fit around your head and are bend. I ordered around 6 and all were poor

Story and Photos by Craig Romano
Photo at right: The White Pass downhill ski area can be seen in the distance from some of the Nordic trails.
Skiers from every age have a favorite place to ski in the Northwest, and White Pass is often a favored place for snowshoeing and downhill skiing. White Pass is also one of the region's top choices for cross-country skiing.
NW Trails is Sponsored by:
Winter Playground
At 4,500 feet, White Pass's lofty elevation assures ample snowfall and being on the leeward side of Mount Rainier, the snow tends to be a little drier and fluffier than points farther west.
If you live in Yakima, this is your backyard winter playground. But, folks in the greater Seattle area shouldn't let the three-hour drive be a deterrent. There are accommodations at the Pass and more options both west in Packwood and east in Yakima.
You can purchase a trail pass at the White Pass Nordic Center. The friendly staff at the Nordic Yurt can provide you with a map and information on the Center's trails and rental equipment if you don't have your own. The Center also offers both group and individual lessons for beginners as well as instruction for experienced skiers who want to perfect their technique.
Consisting of a series of loops of varying degrees of difficulty, the 18 kilometers of wide well-groomed trails are double-tracked with a center skating lane.
Beginners will like the Deer Creek Loop where they will glide along 1.4 kilometers through quiet groves of old-growth forest. It can be reached by skiing along the southern shores of Leech Lake, often referred to as just "The Lake."
Branching off the Deer Creek Loop is the Dog Lake Loop. This 2.5 kilometer circuit offers a little more zip with a few short ups and downs. It traverses a forested ridge above Dog Lake and experienced skiers can veer off the loop to look at the frozen tranquil lake set beneath Spiral Butte.
Thrilling Descents
If you want a thrilling downhill run, consider skiing down The Hill. This 0.6 kilometer trail is the hardest and steepest trail at the White Pass Nordic Center! Along with the exciting downhill run it offers lovely views of Spiral Butte and the lonely surrounding ridges.
The loop that will have you returning for another round or two is the Lake Loop. A moderately easy 2.3 kilometer route around "The Lake," this trail not only hugs the shoreline of placid Leech Lake it also travels across glades of towering evergreens and traverses an open slope high above it.
The open slope offers breathtaking views of the frozen body of water below, and the bustling downhill ski trails at the White Pass Ski Area across the Pass. You'll also enjoy a nice downhill run back to the Nordic Yurt on this loop, too.
Backcountry Adventure to Deer Lake
If you are interested in backcountry skiing, the Pacific Crest Trail passes through White Pass and the ski center.
Located north of the Pass just inside the sprawling William O. Douglas Wilderness is Deer Lake. It feels like it is deep within the backcountry yet it's a mere 3 miles from White Pass. With fairly gentle terrain surrounding the lake, it makes for good beginning backcountry ski touring.
The most scenic route to Deer Lake is to follow the PCT from the Lake Loop Ski Trail. It's well marked by a big brown sign you can't miss. Head north on the famous long-distance trail. It makes a sweeping switchback left and then another to the right and gently climbs up a thickly forested slope graced with old-growth giants.
Cross the Kendall Konnecter ski trail and continue climbing. The trail soon eases up following a gentle shoulder shrouded in hemlocks and firs. Enter the William O. Douglas Wilderness and come to a junction with the Dark Meadows Trail which heads right 1.6 miles to Dog Lake.
To reach Deer Lake, continue straight on the PCT rounding the head of a small ravine. The trail traverses a short steep slope and bends left to make a short climb to a broad ridge. Continue along this forested route, which skirts pocket meadows on the left and goes past a small meadow on your right.
The route then briefly re-enters the forest before popping out upon a wide-open area. Here at 3 miles you've reached Deer Lake — but you'd never know it in the dead of winter. It appears more like a big frozen meadow. Surrounded by towering sub-alpine firs the scene is quite serene.
Wander around the lake basin leaving your tracks in freshly fallen snow—and look for the two- and four-legged tracks of those that have passed before you.
Nordic Yurt Comfort
After an exhausting day breaking tracks or skating to your heart's content, head back to the yurt. Here you can warm up with a cup of hot cocoa, a hot bowl of chili, or a hearty snack.
If you've never cross-country skied and would like to, the Center offers Nordic ski lessons Thursdays and Sundays. It's a perfect way to become acquainted with this healthy sport and a wonderful place to pursue it.
Trip Details/Resources
Distance: 18 kilometers (11 miles) of groomed trails
Trailhead Directions: From Morton, follow US 12 east for 55 miles to White Pass. Turn left and proceed to parking area near the Yurt behind the Village Inn Condominiums.
Green Trails Maps: White Pass No. 303
Notes: The Nordic Center is open Thursday through Sundays and holidays during the ski season from 8:30 a.m. until 4 p.m. (passes required). Children under six and skiers over 73 can ski for free. It may be difficult to locate trail blazes along some of these loops, so be prepared and carry a map. Dogs are allowed on the trails after 3:30 p.m. Thursday through Sunday and all day on the trails Monday through Wednesday.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by ejthedj, Aug 21, 2013.
Post of the day.
(stupid cowboy fans)
It doesn't matter what direction his arm was going. The ball went backwards and it wasn't tipped backwards. That's a lateral. A live ball. Any other rule makes the whole decision subjective, based on what the refs think about the direction of the wrist and finger bones (lol). A pass that goes backwards is a backward pass. Period.
Except, not period.. and that's why it wasn't a fumble.
Right, so it was a pass then, not a fumble. However, a backwards pass... even if it is incomplete... is a live ball and still should have been Dallas ball if they recovered.
Its not a backward pass or a lateral unless the QB is actually looking to throw that pass. If he goes to throw and gets hit.. i don't think its considered a backward pass.
I'm not so sure they look at intent when there is a backward pass, although you may be correct.
Personally, I think the refs were just looking to see if it was a fumble or a pass and once they determined it was a pass, just called it incomplete. I feel like they simply didn't think about the fact that it went backwards and just made a mistake.
a battled ball most-likely went forward first and the got batted backwards. The play in question the ball went straight backwards. It didn't go forward at all. It should be a backward pass/laterall which equals a fumble.
If the arm is going forward then it's a forward pass. The fact the ball was batted to the rear is irrelevant. It is an incomplete pass as soon as it hits the ground. The hand may have been empty because it was really a FF but that wasn't the ruling on the field. I'm not sure if that is challengeable though.
I think the confusion is that a backwards pass is a fumble.
I think it's a fumble. The refs just made a strict ruling on arm motion. Go stand in front of a mirror and mimic throwing a football. At the top of it, the ball is up next to your head. As you throw, the ball moves out to your shoulder (or further). If you are standing perpendicular to the LOS (throwing towards the sideline/flats), the start of your throwing motion will have the ball traveling backwards before it goes forward. If you were facing downfield, the ball would be moving forward and this wouldn't matter. During that point is when the throwing motion was interrupted and was also the QB's orientation relative to the LOS. The throwing motion was going forward, ball was going backward, and ball is knocked out. If the ball slips from the QB's hand at that point from that position and travels the direction the arm was going, it'd be a backwards pass.
Standing perpendicular to the LOS, top of throwing motion:
Point of lost control:
So a backward pass isn't a fumble?
In order to claim a backwards pass we have to have know for a fact he was attempting a backwards pass, because the defender interrupted the natural pass throwing motion of the QB, the refs are only able to then judge whether the arm was moving forward prior to the contact made by the defender. If it is, then the ball is incomplete, if not, then its a fumble. His arm was moving forward at the time of the hit hence the incomplete. As to whether or not he was attempting a backwards pass, is not for the refs to figure out., or make a call for it The ruling on the field was a sack/fumble. the challenge was whether or not it was a sack fumble or an attempt at a throw. The refs ruled his arm was coming forward a the time of the hit, hence the call of incomplete pass.
So an attempted bubble screen that lands behind the line of scrimmage isn't a fumble b/c the QB didn't mean it?
Thats a freaking fumble and the refs blew it.
An attempt at a bubble screen in which the QB gets hit before he finishes the throwing motion is not a fumble if his arm is going forward.
The refs cannot determine where the football was going to be upon the completion of the pass. They can only rule whether or not it was a sack/fumble or in the process of at throwing the football. Because his arm was going forward he was in the process of throwing the football. Which because the defender impeded the completion of the pass, it is an incomplete pass. The Refs cannot judge where the ball was intended to go, based on angle of arm, location of a target, which direction the ball went. None of that matters. All that matters is the play thats being reviewed. Which was whether or not his arm was going forward prior to the hit on the QB that forced the ball loose. you can argue what you want, the refs didn't miss the call. His arm was going forward hence an incomplete pass.
His arm would be going forward on a bubble screen that ends up going backwards.
The whole "I wasnt trying to do that" doesnt work. Sorry ref, "I wasn't trying to fumble." "I wasn't trying to hold this guy."
Unless they are saying that the ball came out going forward, and then got batted back, its a fumble. What about all those plays where a QB tries to throw and has the ball knocked out of their hand, but they still follow through. Thats still a fumble. Why isnt this one?
No dargonking, the only ruling that involves subjective judgment is the one that says that a ball that went backwards was actually meant to go forwards. In my interpretation, I know it was a fumble because the ball went backwards and was not tipped. That has nothing to do with intent. This was a blown call. No two ways around it. I've never seen a call that said "his arm was going forward even though the ball went backwards." That is just a trash interpretation that brings in so many subjective judgments. In fact, the rule says this exactly:
Any pass not forward is regarded as a backward pass. A pass parallel to the line is a backward pass. A runner may pass backward at any time.
A backward pass that strikes the ground can be recovered and advanced by either team.
A backward pass caught in the air can be advanced by either team.
A backward pass in flight may not be batted forward by an offensive player.
It was a fumble. He hit his elbow before it was moving forward. the ball was never batted by the defender. annoying call. pre season ... whatever. I am sure our coaches are giving holloman credit for it.
Oh wow, they made the right call... It's just a stupid rule. This means the refs have to make judgment calls instead of paying attention to the actual flight of the ball. It's another ridiculous tuck rule.
When a player is in control of the ball and attempting to pass it forward, any intentional forward movement of
his hand starts a forward pass.
(a) If the passer is attempting to throw a forward pass, but contact by an opponent materially affects him,
causing the ball to go backward, it is a forward pass, regardless of where the ball strikes the ground, a
player, an official, or anything else.
Again you can't judge intent when he never completed the throw, not only did he not complete the throw, he barely started his arm moving foward. There is no real way to know what direction that ball was going to go if holloman had not hit the QB. We can assume, but thats not what the challenge was. The call on the field was a sack/fumble. They went to review whether or not his arm was moving foward in an attempt to throw the football prior to being hit by Holloman. They determined that it was, hence and incomplete pass.
The ball came out not, because the QB threw it, but because the defender hit the QB as he was trying to throw the football. So the direction the ball goes is irrelevant in the case. I bet you won't find a single play where the defender hits the QB while he's throwing the football and because the ball goes backwards its ruled a fumble.

1972 Chevrolet
Chevelle SS
It's hard to find a more desirable Chevy muscle car than a 1972 Chevelle convertible in full SS appearance. Of course when the paint looks this amazing, and there's a fresh 350 crate motor under the hood, then you really know you're looking at something special.
Code 26 Mulsanne Blue is this car's original color, but when this drop top hits the sunlight you can instantly tell it has a shine that's better than what the factory could ever give. The deep metallic luster that tells you this was a professional respray, and the SS white stripes are painted so its beauty has a long lasting effect. All the right Super Sport pieces are in place for '72 including grille, badges, and clear front indicators. This would be the last year for the iconic cowl induction hood, and in combination with hood pins, it just competes this Chevelle's aggressive first impression. The only piece on the exterior that doesn't look straight from the factory are the Foose wheels, but no one is ever going to complain about these bright beacons of modern style.
Black is always a beautiful choice for interiors on American muscle cars. This one looks especially good, which tells you there was a lot of care taken when the top was down. In fact, even the power folding roof has been recently replaced to ensure it continues watertight motoring when the sky turns gray. These might have been the midsize Chevys back in the day, but there is plenty of room for you to carry all your friends and family with the two rows of bench seats. Plus, everyone can even stay entertained with modern tunes thanks to the updated AM/FM/CD stereo. But a convertible like this is really about the driver. That's why you get the proper SS round gauge package, including factory tach, as well as a set of auxiliary readouts under the dash. This is starting to tell you that there might be something wicked under the hood.
The engine bay looks great with all the polished components as well as the finned Edelbrock air cleaner and valve covers, but there's plenty of substance behind this flash. This is a 350 small-block crate motor with only 5,000 miles on it since new. It inhales deeply with an Edelbrock 600 CFM four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock intake, and the motor exhales with authority through coated headers that feed the Flowmaster Stage 2 dual exhaust. This combination of go-fast components really makes it a true muscle machine on the road, but that's not the full story. It's a power steering car with a three-speed automatic transmission. Add in the front disc brakes and a highway-friendly 2.73 rear axle, and this one is ideal for Saturday night intimidating or long-haul cruising.
This is a great combination of vintage looks with modern reliable components added. We even have the factory buildsheet, owner's manual, and restoration receipts to back it all up. So you're looking at handsome, trouble-free cruiser with a strong pedigree. What's not to love? Call today!!!
This vehicle is not currently in one of our showrooms. Please set up an appointment to view this car in person.
