Hasidim in Uman break record
This year the holiday of Rosh Hashanah gathered a record number of Hasidim in Uman, almost 30,000, Ukrinform writes, citing a press release by the Interior Department of Ukraine in the Cherkassy Oblast.
"This year a record number of foreign guests came to celebrate this year in Uman – 29,490 people, while last year there were just over 20,000 pilgrims," the press release states.
15 police officers from Israel travelled to Uman to provide assistance to Ukrainian law-enforcement officers in maintaining order during the celebration.
The holiday continued until Tuesday, the 15th of September.

CHARLES TOWN, W.Va. – West Virginia's attorney general has settled complaints with two Virginia auto loan companies over their debt collection practices.
Patrick Morrisey said Wednesday the settlement was reached in Jefferson County Circuit Court with Fast Auto Loans Inc. and Virginia Auto Loans Inc.
Car title loans are banned in West Virginia.
The companies were accused of threatening prosecution in order to collect debts, charged excessive interest rates and failed to follow the law in seizing consumers' vehicles.
Morrisey's office says 218 cars were seized from West Virginia residents.
The companies agreed to close all accounts and erase debt owed by West Virginia consumers within 60 days, return any seized vehicles that have not yet been sold, and remove liens on vehicle titles.
They also agreed to pay $450,000 total to the state.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
I am already neutered and up to date with shots.
To adopt you must first complete an adoption application and either come to an adoption event or arrange to meet the cat in its foster home. We do not do same day adoptions so, generally, we can only adopt within the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.
Yoda, a Gaithersburg Domestic Shorthair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Gaithersburg, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair kitten from a breeder in Gaithersburg.

Mother warns about 'suicide seeds' after death of 22-year-old daughter
A Chicago-area mother is warning others after her 22-year-old transgender daughter died after ingesting deadly "pong pong" seeds that she purchased online.
Natosha Anderson, of Calumet City, told ABC news her daughter, Lucia McCalip, bought the rare seeds for $5 which originate from a plant called cerbera odollam, also known as the suicide tree, found in southeast Asia.
"I'm pretty sure [she] thought it was going to be easy, but it wasn't. [She] died in pain. It was slow, and it was painful," said Anderson, referring to Lucia who had recently changed her name from Bernard.
READ MORE: The fight for trans rights: a matter of life and death
Anderson said she found McCalip in bathroom rolling around in agony and admitted to intentionally swallowing one of the seeds.
"The police, the paramedics, they didn't even know. No one knew," she said.
McCalip died Feb. 15. Anderson told ABC news her child was struggling with the desire to live life as a woman, but wasn't aware of any depression or suicidal thoughts.
The highly toxic seeds have been linked to hundreds of deaths in the southwest Indian state of Kerala. In 2015, the New York Times reported that one teenager died of heart failure and three others were sent to hospital in critical condition in Kerala after eating the so-called "suicide seeds."
Lake County Medical Examiner said McCalip's cause of death had not been established and it could be months before toxicology results come back.
As of Friday, the seeds are still available on both eBay and Amazon.
Ryan Moore, a spokesperson for eBay, told Global News the company is working to update their hazardous materials policy to include the seeds.
"Our policies are often based on global or local laws," Moore said in an email. "While Pong Pong seeds are unregulated, we have prohibited these seeds from being sold on our global marketplace out of an abundance of caution. We're in the process of updating the enforcement of our Hazardous Materials policy to reflect this update."
READ MORE: Transgender community wants more human rights protection
John Trestrail, a forensic toxicologist who specializes in studying criminal poisoning cases, says this is the first time he's encountered the toxic seed causing a death in North America.
"It's nasty stuff," said Trestrail. "[It is] part of a class of physiologically active compounds we call cardiac glycosides… probably the one most familiar to people is digoxin extracted from foxglove."
He said while these ccompounds, like digoxin, can be used in small doses to treat heart failure they have a "narrow therapeutic index" meaning the difference between a therapeutic dose and toxic dose is very small.
Trestrail says while there have been improvements, more needs to be done to keep track of poisons for sale online, including the creation of "national poison registry" to track sales.
Amazon has several listings for the "decorative" seeds available online. While the site prohibits the sale of plants and seeds that have been deemed "noxious" by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, "pong pong" seeds are not regulated by the USDA.
Cerbera odollam is also not listed on the Canadian Food Inspection Agency's prohibited plant list for entry into Canada.

If you're pining for some big laughs — no "message," no "moral of the story," no ponderous thoughts — Sin, Sex & the C.I.A. is the show for you.
It's all for laughs, and laughs for all, and playing weekends through Jan. 30 at Richey Suncoast Theatre.
Director Rich Aront, an aficionado and connoisseur of zany physical humor (he played the shower cap-wearing best friend in Caught in the Net) guides his well-chosen cast members to pull out all the stops when defining their characters, exaggerating their quirks and taking each one right to the edge and over the top at just the right places.
Richey Suncoast regulars will be delighted to see their favorite comic actors in full sail, and both delighted and surprised to see others show comic sides never before seen.
Watch especially Star Verosic, who has mastered playing the gorgeous, sexy blond (Appassionata von Climax in Li'l Abner, or Barbara in Run for Your Wife, for instance) appearing in this show as a dowdy virgin with comic moves and gawky physical gyrations as uninhibited and fearless as a young Carol Burnett. It's not often that a stage beauty is able, much less willing, to appear as a homely buffoon, but Ms. Verosic does so with eye-popping gusto.
There's also comedy payoff with Drew Lundquist as bumbling rookie C.I.A. agent Luke James, who has been assigned to a remote "safe" cabin in the woods to keep watch over a government employee, the libido-driven Margaret Johnson (a delightfully cool Linda Luckenbach), as she negotiates a deal with a representative of the (mythical) Chagos Islands, which has just discovered the biggest oil deposit in the world.
The United States wants to head off offers from OPEC, and it's James' job to see that Johnson and the Chagos rep are left alone to do a deal before the Middle Easterners get to them.
James arrives at the cabin to find the target of Johnson's amorous intentions, tough-talking ex-Marine Daniel Warren (a hilarious Dennis Tekula), pretty much in charge, since the usual cabin occupant, Mr. Cole, reportedly has taken ill. Soon, the sanctimonious Rev. Samuel Abernathy (the dependably funny Bill Schommer) and his dense, frowzy secretary Millicent (Verosic) drop in, saying their car conked out on them down the road. Then neighbor Heather Faraday (a no-nonsense Jeaux Brown) arrives, saying an ongoing thunderstorm has doused her lights and she wants a place to stay — and it turns out to be in her bedroom with the cute ex-Marine.
Of course, the oil negotiations are just an excuse for sexual innuendoes and advances, double entendres, eye-rolling puns, and sight gags that come as fast as a back-country buzz saw. Sure, some of the gags are telegraphed before they happen, but who cares? It's not necessarily the surprise of the gag, it's the gag itself that earns the laughs.
When security-minded James announces he's wired the window to electrocute any intruders, for example, we know it's just a matter of time before he latches onto the window and lights up. Even so, it's laugh-out-loud funny when it happens. When James sneaks in with handcuffs to capture the villain, we know who's going to end up in shackles. Still, it's funny when we see it.
It doesn't even matter whether Schommer's Bible-thumping Rev. Abernathy is shown to be a hypocrite; what's funny is that he repeatedly looks like one.
Sin, Sex and the C.I.A. was written by Michael and Susan Parker, but it could easily pass for a Ray Cooney creation, which would likely be a-okay with Richey Suncoast patrons, including me. With floods, fires, snowstorms, and shootings everywhere else, it can be quite pleasant to sit in a dark theater and get lost in two hours of unabashed, unapologetic absurdity such as this.

Why Darren Oliver's contract doesn't entitle us (or the Blue Jays) to a thing.
Darren Oliver is, depending on your perspective, in something of a pickle or a greedy bastard who should just shut up and throw the ball like he agreed to. The gist of his situation is:
November 2, 2012 5:00 am
Just when Darren Oliver is out, he pulls himself back in. And he keeps getting better.
We love baseball, all of us, but it can be exhausting, too. There are so many games. The games only matter in that they lead to other, more exclusive games. Then, once those games are played, we wait a few months and we start over, with more games. For you, it's a hobby and a diversion. But imagine it's your job, and all these pointless games just pile up on each other, each one bringing a new chance for you to fail in front of everybody. How long until it stopped being fun?
Darren Oliver is 42 years old. The Blue Jays just picked up his $3 million option for 2013, but he's said to be leaning toward retirement. Many times in his career he has been leaning toward retirement, but this one is a bit different for two reasons: He's really, really good; and it sounds like he might mean it.

19 Spooky Stories That Will Scare The Crap Out Of You… And They're Real.
As much as I claim to hate being scared, I will not turn down a good, terrifying story. It is part of our DNA to enjoy a fright here and there. It is why we watch horror movies or visit haunted houses. Scientists claim that being panic stricken activates our 'fight or flight' response, with the brain quickly realizing we are actually safe.
It's also argued that our brain and bodies become accustomed to being exposed to spooky situations, therefore, stop reacting. We have found some very creepy accounts that beg to differ. These stories will frighten you to the bone, maybe try reading them during the day and not at night by yourself.
#1. James Dean's Porche
It is said, James Dean's Porsche 550 Spyder, nicknamed Little Bastard, was cursed. In 1955, Dean was involved in a fatal collision. Later, the car rolled off the back of a truck and crushed the legs of a mechanic standing nearby.
The Porsche was later taken apart and sold in pieces. However, the vehicle's engine, transmission and tires were put into automobiles that were all later involved in deadly crashes. Even the truck carrying the chassis was in an accident, killing the driver. The car mysteriously vanished and has not been seen since.
#2. Raggedy Ann
In the 1970's, a nursing student got a Raggedy Andy doll from her mom. Shortly afterwards, she and her roommate began finding the doll in different areas of their apartment, covered in blood or holding handwritten notes asking for help.
A friend suggested they get rid of it. In retaliation, the toy levitated, strangled the friend, and clawed at his chest. The doll, initially thought to be haunted by the spirit of a girl named Annabelle, was later deemed to be a portal for a demonic entity. The doll is now under constant watch at an occult museum.
#3. Dybbuk Box
A dybbuk is a vengeful spirit in Jewish mythology. One lived in a wine cabinet, belonging to a Polish holocaust survivor who summoned the spirit by accident. This wine cabinet or 'dybbuk box' has had many owners who have tried to get rid of it almost as soon as they got it; they complained of strange health problems and nightmares. The last owner, Jason Haxton locked the dybbuk back in the box and buried it at the suggestion of his rabbis.
#4. Busby's Chair
Thomas Busby loved his chair so much that he cursed anyone who dared to sit in it. In 1702, he was executed for strangling his father-in-law after he tried to take a seat in the coveted chair. It seems not a lot of people took the curse seriously as 63 brave but foolish folks have died after sitting in the chair. The Thirsk Museum in the UK, where the sinister seat now lives, has suspended the chair high above ground to avoid any more fatalities.
#5. Abraham Lincoln
It has been documented Abraham Lincoln had visions of his own assassination as early as his first day of his presidency. His wife Mary held séances in the White House after the death of their 12-year-old son. Not only were the President and First Lady able to 'communicate' with their boy but it is also believed other spirits advised Lincoln on how to win the Civil War.

Louis Tomlinson's Mom Speaks Up About Eleanor Calder Break-Up Rumors
Supposedly, while Louis Tomlinson's girlfriend, Eleanor Calder, flew out to Nashville for the boy band's Take Me Home concert, she stayed in a local hotel, while the 1D guy slept on the tour bus, leading many to suspect that there's trouble in paradise. Thankfully, Louis' mom, Johannah Poulston, completely addresses said conflict.
Twitter fan @www_1d_please flat out asked if the twosome, dubbed Elounor, called it quits, to which the singer's mama outright responds with:
@www_1d_please No way! As strong as ever ❤❤
— Johannah Deakin (@JohannahDarling) June 20, 2013
Along with the One Direction guy, it seems the rest of the family's taken by Eleanor as well. Not only does Johannah come to her defense now (and often), Louis' sister, Lottie, has also referred to his model girlfriend as her future 'sister-in-law' in the past.
Unfortunately for shippers of the boys' relationships, not all of the split buzz can be denied. Last month, it was reported that Liam Payne and longtime on-again/off-again love Danielle Peazer broke off their coupledom yet again, crushing the hearts of Payzer supporters all over the world.

Forest Hills, N.Y. (PRWEB) June 21, 2013
Maria Sharapova. Milla Jovovich. Nastia Liukin. Leonardo DiCaprio. What ties these notable personalities together? Their Russian heritage. Since the 1700s, Russians have been coming to America's shores. Although there are already numerous notable Russian-Americans since that time, according to author Lyudmila Noble, Russians are still stereotyped as "rigid people who came from the cold freezing country with similar personalities". To break that stereotyping, introduce the relatively new breed of Russian-speaking communities in America today, and reveal how they truly are, Noble publishes her new novel based on a true story, titled Just Touching the Memory.
In her book, Noble invites readers to think, analyze and understand the reasons which made Soviet people leave their country. As everyone is aware nobody leaves and departs from a good life. On the surface, the main character had a great career, house, family, children, and husband. However, that was the tip of the iceberg. The underlying reason for her departure from the former Soviet Union was deep down and deeply hidden from the eyes of the bystanders. In her book, Noble tries to capture the most significant events which led the country to the collapse and made an impact of the destinies of the citizens of that country greatly.
"I hope that my book will help to build the bridges between two communities and will show where the Soviet Russians are coming from and what we have in common: values, goals, difficulties, personalities. And in spite of the fact that the Russians were emigrating to the U.S.A. for centuries, these Soviet Russians are very different from those who emigrated from feudal Russian society," explains Noble. "The Soviet Russians are highly educated, disciplined, responsible, sophisticated and they came to the United States for political reasons, not economical ones."
Certainly some Soviet Russians came to the U.S. for economical reasons, but they did not arrive here as political refugees, as the main character and her family, and the other Russian Jews who came to the U.S. They joined those who came here as political Jewish refugees (as a part of their families) and some of those who came to the U.S. also got the green cards from American Government. Hence, the Soviet Russian emigration has various reasons for coming to America. The book is a true story of those who came to the U.S. as political refugees. Names, places, and events have been altered to protect the identity and show respect for the real characters.
Being a sensitive author, Noble sincerely wants to say in her book, "My freedom is finishing when your freedom ends". As a matter of fact, in the former U.S.S.R., the notions "will" and "freedom" were not separated. The authorities did everything what they wanted to do in spite of the fact that they hurt constantly Soviet people the people of values and dignity. Just Touching the Memory is a compelling work with a clear mission—to give all people, in general, and the American people, in particular, the chance to understand and appreciate the sentiments, talents and richness of culture of the Russians who have come to share in the American Dream.

About the Author
Lyudmila Noble was born in a family of a well-known doctor in the former Soviet Union. From her very childhood, she was introduced to the notions of humanism and altruism which were presented to her by her father. Noble's father was her mentor and her role model. In the former Soviet Union, Noble received her education as linguist, educator and military nurse. She majored in English/German. Later, she got her Master's Degree in Social Work in New York, U.S.A.

Texas Tech's Kliff Kingsbury attracting unique fan base, featured on E! News
There isn't another college football coach getting the good press Texas Tech's Kliff Kingsbury has received since the SMU game.
The former Red Raider quarterback and first-year head coach was featured on E! News with hardly a mention of how well his team has played on the field in the early season on its way to a 4-0 record.
Kingsbury caught E!: Entertainment Television's eye because viewers from across the country saw nationally televised games against SMU and TCU and think he looks very similar to actor Ryan Gosling. You can see E!'s segment on the coach here.
"It's a nice compliment," Kingsbury told E!. "It's not like there are a bunch of supermodels in this profession, so you take it with a grain of salt."
The statement Kingsbury has thrown out to the Lubbock media several times regarding the attention he has received based on looks and personality is "better than the alternative." He tries to keep things focused on football and his team as much as possible.
The attention Texas Tech's head coach has received off the field is unprecedented in the college sports sphere, but exposure is exposure. More than anything, it gives Kingsbury and Texas Tech prominence to people who follow Hollywood and music more than sports.

WARRINGTON rugby ace Paul Wood has had a testicle removed after RUPTURING it
during yesterday's Grand Final.
The prop suffered the horror blow at the start of the second half – but
remarkably managed to play on for 40 minutes.
He was rushed to hospital after the defeat to Leeds Rhinos – where he went
under the knife.
After the game the Great Britain player tweeted: "Now just sat in hospital
with a ruptured testicle! Please don't laugh it's very very very painful! &
"Ruptured my right testicle, got a knee 1 minute into the second half, had to
have it removed."
And earlier today, the 30-year-old joked: "Just coming out the hospital
to go home… Seriously feel like I've left something???"

The PIAA did the WPIAL a favor by allowing basketball teams forced to play a preliminary-round game in the state tournament to do so at home.
Good idea.
No, great idea.
It saved travel expenses for half of the teams involved in the 10 games, and allowed home fans to see and support their seniors one final time.
The preliminary round turned into a launching pad for the WPIAL, with nine of 10 of its teams winning and moving into the first round. They included Central Catholic, North Hills and Seneca Valley (all from Section 3-AAAA boys), the Washington boys and the Baldwin, Gateway, Oakland Catholic, Mars and Beaver girls.
The Valley boys, who lost to City League also-ran Oliver, turned out to be the only WPIAL team that failed to take advantage of its home court.
This weekend, the tournament sprouts wings and moves into outposts such as Edinboro University, Altoona, Clarion University, Sharon, Ebensburg, Pitt-Johnstown, IUP and Johnstown. Thank goodness, gas prices remain under $2 per gallon.
Best matchups in the boys brackets:
• Peters Township/Central Catholic, featuring the 2009/2008 WPIAL champions, at 3 p.m. Saturday at Chartiers Valley. Peters Township beat Central in the WPIAL quarterfinals, 62-54. Prediction: Central Catholic.
• Chartiers Valley vs. Perry, featuring once-beaten Chartiers Valley and City League champion Perry, 7:30 p.m. Friday at Allderdice. Chartiers Valley was dominant for most of three months, winning 24 games in a row before losing to Highlands in the WPIAL semifinals, 66-59. Perry was 15-2 at one time this season and 21-4 when it beat Allderdice, 61-35, to win the City. Prediction: Chartiers Valley (by at least 15).
• Beaver Falls vs. Jeannette. OK, both teams must win their first-round games and that's no given for underachieving Beaver Falls (19-5), which gets District 6 champion Cambria Heights (21-5) at Central Cambria High School in Ebensburg. Jeannette should toy with Reynolds (23-2), the third-place team from District 10, before advancing. But if both win and are on their games, Beaver Falls' Todd Thomas against Jeannette's Jordan Hall should be a show worth watching. Prediction: If it happens, Jeannette 66, Beaver Falls 60.
On the girls side, keep an eye on Class AAA Mars and its star forward Lily Grenci. She could help the Planets upset District 10 champion General McLane (23-1) after they tip off at 6 p.m. Saturday at Edinboro. Prediction: Mars, 55-52.

Also, Mimi does not have a certain HP so she can take unlimted damage without being defeated. Her legs must be lost in order for her to be powerless.

Throwing a rubee at her while she's on the ceiling will knock her back down onto the floor.
While Mimi's on the floor, jumping on her head or throwing another rubee will stun her. Hit her again while she's stunned to knock one of her legs off. Repeat until her legs are all gone (how do you walk with one leg anyway)?

Whn she goes on the ceiling, put a bomb under her whn she is in a corner. Once she falls, she'll be dizzy and her head will spin. Jump on her head and she'll loose a leg. Repeat the process until she lost all her legs... or maybe until she has only one leg.

That wil only knock her down after that when she is on the ground jump on her. She will lose a leg. keep doing that untill all her legs gone and then she dies. VICTORY!!!
Kimmieoco - 8 years ago
Trust me that works the best.
Kimmieoco - 8 years ago
NO. I used that process and I beated her, without losing ANY health.
pokeaddict17 - 8 years ago
If simply reading these answers doesn't help, try watching this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ai2-k4a3-ks skip to 6:03 and if you don't want spoilers, then stop as soon as you understand how to beat her. (the video shows the cutscenes the follow beating the boss)

Use princess peach and press down when about to get hit
When she stops attacking, use Thoreau (spelling?) to throw / jumpwith the rubies at her. She will lose a leg and eventually die. Best way, Can't get hit. Works quickly (:
destr0kk - 7 years ago
Well that is true but after she falls run up and jump on her head the legs will fall off one by one.
Kimmieoco - 7 years ago
At first, Mimi will be invincible, but when flashy pink hearts appear, her barrier will be down. After that, the real battle begins. First, Mimi will go on the ceiling, shooting Rubees at you. Use Thoreau to grab one of the Rubees and throw it right at Mimi to knock her down. After that, she'll still shoot Rubees at you, but the Rubees go at an angle this time. Again, grab a Rubee with Thoreau and throw the Rubee at Mimi. This time, she'll be dizzy and stunned. Now, jump on Mimi's head to make her lose a leg. Repeat the process until all six of her legs are gone. Also, when she's on the ground, she'll use a wave-like attack with Rubees. To avoid this, flip with Mario, or defend against it with Peach's umbrella/parasol. Also, I've seen someone use Boomer instead of Thoreau to attack her on the ground so if you're not comfortable avoiding the Rubees on the ground or jumping on Mimi, use Boomer.
Kirby321 - 7 years ago
At first Mimi is invinceble, just ignor her and go through the door, and continue through
the mansion. when you find a small hole in the grounnd, use slim to fall down it. After this, get past the maze of doors and eventualy you'll find a pair of bathroom doors. Go into the girls bathroom and you'll be able to fight Mimi.
Purpleyoshiguy - 7 years ago
At first, mimi is invincible, proceed through the mansion(ignoring her) until you reach the bathrooms, head inside the ladies bathroom, open the stalls to find merlee, who will put down the invincibility barrier.
After that throw rubees, jump on her, or whatever you prefer.

TAMPA — This was supposed to be the week in which two of the NFL's brightest rookie defensive tackles — the Lions' Ndamukong Suh and the Bucs' Gerald McCoy — were to appear on the same field.
Instead, the fortunes of the No. 2 and No. 3 overall picks, respectively, in April, couldn't be more miles apart.
Suh, the former Nebraska star, is uprooting blockers and planting quarterbacks at a record pace. His 52 tackles, eight sacks, interception and fumble return for a touchdown make Suh a frontrunner for defensive rookie of the year.
But on Wednesday, McCoy underwent surgery to repair a season-ending torn left biceps that rolled up like a window shade on the third play of Sunday's 17-16 win at Washington.
"It was a serious downer to say the least, just because of how he was progressing over the past month, and it was kind of a freak deal," Bucs defensive line coach Todd Wash said.
McCoy, the former Oklahoma star, was just beginning to make an impact. He went nine games without a quarterback takedown but entered Sunday's game at Washington with three sacks in his three previous starts. Then came the injury.
It doesn't seem as if anything can slow down Suh, who is on pace to break the NFL record for sacks by a rookie defensive tackle, 10 1/2 by the 49ers' Dana Stubblefield in 1993.
"No question, I definitely hold myself to a very high standard," Suh said Wednesday. "And even when I may have reached or gotten very close to that standard that I'm looking for, I push it even higher. That's just the way I am. I want to continue to be that way because I never want to be satisfied. You can never be perfect in this game, and I don't think I'll ever, ever have a perfect game, but I can obviously get very, very close to it."
Considering all their injuries on the offensive line, the Bucs hope Suh's quest for perfection isn't realized Sunday. The Bucs will start rookie guards Ted Larsen and Derek Hardman against the Lions. Even though center Jeremy Zuttah is almost certain to slide toward Suh in pass protection, the Lions rookie will create favorable matchups for his linemates.
"He's the complete package, that's obviously why he was selected so high," Zuttah said. "… He's getting after the quarterback or getting into the backfield every play. He doesn't stop coming. … He's making a name for himself. I don't think you can compare him to anybody else."
Of course, that wasn't always the case.
Perhaps no two players in recent draft history have been as scrutinized by NFL scouts more than Suh and McCoy.
At 6 feet 4, 307 pounds, Suh was considered to be much more powerful and better against the run. But he was a nimble enough athlete to play as much soccer as football growing up and has demonstrated unusual quickness as a pass rusher.
McCoy, at 6 feet 4, 295 pounds, was a space eater with a faster burst off the line of scrimmage who appeared best suited for the three-technique defensive tackle, shooting the gap between the offensive guard and tackle.
But for nine games, McCoy struggled trying to get a sack. He finally broke that streak with two half sacks at San Francisco on Nov. 21 and followed it up with a two-sack game a week later at Baltimore.
Bucs coach Raheem Morris spent a lot of time studying both players before the draft. Ultimately, the Rams took quarterback Sam Bradford No. 1 overall and the Lions selected Suh, leaving McCoy to the Bucs.
"I joked about it, but we kind of hit the lotto in that spot," Morris said. "We couldn't go wrong. As long as the quarterback was taken first, me and (general manager) Mark Dominik were able to do an arm bar in his office.
"I had visions for both of them, some of them very similar, some of them very different. I just thought they both held a sense of urgency where you create different things and put those guys in positions to have success."
Lions coach Jim Schwartz liked what he saw of McCoy before the injury as well.
"I think he was doing a really good job in there," Schwartz said. "He's a good athlete, stays on his feet, maybe not as productive as far as numbers go as Ndamukong Suh, but that's very difficult to do when you're a defensive tackle."
McCoy plans to return to work later this week and is expected to attend meetings and games. But the Bucs know they won't be able to replace him. Tampa Bay is expected to fill his spot with Frank Okam, who was signed from the practice squad Nov. 24, and Roy Miller, who starts at nose tackle.
Suh says he hasn't followed McCoy this season and vice versa. But everyone would've been eyeballing the league's top rookies Sunday.
"No one could believe it," Wash said of the moment when McCoy was injured. "… It hit us right away, and you could tell … it jacked with him a little bit. But he'll be back. He's a big spoke in our wheel."

International Price Dispersion in State-Dependent Pricing Models: Theory and Evidence
Studies of disaggregated price data document a robust, positive relationship between nominal exchange rate (NER) volatility and the variability of relative prices for cities separated by national borders. This relationship is interpreted as evidence of sticky prices. This paper shows that a state-dependent sticky price model implies a U-shaped rather than monotonic relationship between relative price variability and nominal exchange rate volatility. In relatively calm environments, higher NER volatility lowers relative price variability as firms adjust more frequently. Only when exchange rate volatility is sufficiently large and firms adjust almost instantaneously, does higher nominal exchange rate volatility cause more variable relative prices. We provide empirical support for this result using a novel dataset of homogeneous goods prices collected in Eastern Europe during 1998-2002. Relative price variability is increasing in nominal exchange rate volatility during the years of the Russian financial crisis, but is falling in NER in the calmer years that follow

LA Auto Show: 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe
We've already seen the new Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. Here's the new version of its bigger sibling.
This summer, Hyundai released the shorter wheelbase Santa Fe Sport, and now they have more details on its longer (by 8 inches) three-row sibling, the Santa Fe. Introduced during a pained, cheesy skit that incorporated a game show and a family dancing to Lenny Kravitz's "Are You Gonna Go My Way" (hey, if we have to sit through it, you have to read it), the 7-passenger Santa Fe will offer seating for 7 adults, more second row legroom, multiple second-row configurations, and more cargo space. It will also see a power lift gate and have an option for second-row captain chairs. Like the Sport, the Santa Fe will have a 12-speaker Harman Kardon audio system, panoramic sunroof, and side window shades. The standard engine will be a 3.3-liter V-6 that will put out 270 hp and 252 lb. ft. of torque.

Effort To Live For God - Poem by Bob Gotti
As one would run for exercise, there is a race in order to be wise,
Not wisdom unto worldly ways, but, Godly Wisdom to His praise.
Effort on our part, we must expend, for Godliness to be our end,
As we set forth into this race, through The Spirit, by God's Grace.
When we do run this race for Him, we run for God, in order to win,
Running the race with all our heart; longing to win right at the start.
And in The Lord we must submit, if we're to become spiritually fit,
This as we resist the devil and flee, to pursue The God of Eternity.
We must also put off the old man, to live new life, per God's Plan,
Replacing our old habits of sin, with Godly behavior found in Him,
As we wrestle in the Ways of God, we'll be lead by Staff and Rod,
While learning to live a Godly life, to be a witness for Jesus Christ.
As we fix our minds and eyes, upon Christ and the Heavenly prize,
Bring to Him every captive thought, Godly thinking will be wrought.
Running this race, you rest in God, while still upon this earthly sod,
Practicing all the things we heard, as we read and live God's Word.
We depend on our Savior above, while God guides us in His Love,
Devoted to our Lord every day, as we walk along life's narrow way,
And humble obedience is our call, to live for Christ, who is over all,
Worshiping daily, we truly praise, Christ, who helps us all our days.

Kendrick, it's Charlie. Hey, buddy, think you can do me a favor?
On Friday, Kendrick Meek played a voice mail message for an Associated Press reporter that he said was left by Charlie Crist on his cell phone shortly before 5 a.m. Monday. In it, Crist said he missed Meek's call from the previous evening, and that he was going to be at a campaign event where both would be speaking later that day.
"Anyway I'll call you later this morning and see if we can work out a time to get together," Crist said in the recording. "Just you and me. Take care, buddy. Appreciate it."
When they met up, Meek said Crist asked him to consider dropping out of the race. "I responded absolutely not, that he should probably consider doing it," Meek said.
If that weren't bizarre enough. Meek told the Wall Street Journal that Crist offered him a cross and asked him to "pray" about whether to stay in the race. The venue: a American Israel Public Affairs Committee gathering Monday in Hollywood.
"I was shocked when he did it," Meek told the Wall Street Journal in an interview late Friday. "I told him to keep the cross and that I carry my Christianity in my heart."

On the Beat
Francona's Non-quandary
NEW YORK-The drumbeat in favor of an unconventional idea began last week in this city's tabloids and only got louder as the All-Star festivities heated up over the weekend. Yet, Red Sox manager Terry Francona only heard second-hand about the clamoring that he, in his role as American League skipper in tonight's All-Star Game, give in to sentimentality and name Yankees closer Mariano Rivera as his starting pitcher. The reasoning by those in the nation's largest city was that giving Rivera the starting role in an All-Game Star game being played during the final season of Yankee Stadium would be a wonderful tribute to one of the game's greatest relief pitchers.
Certainly no one can question Rivera's credentials, even those with the mindset that closing games is the most vastly overrated role in the majors. It's argued that dozens of other pitchers can be found throughout the big leagues (and Triple-A) could handle the job and receive the accompanying glory if given the opportunity. Regardless of that, Rivera has 466 saves in his 14-year career, all spent with the Yankees, putting him third on the all-time list behind the Padres' Trevor Hoffman, who has 541, and Lee Smith, who amassed 478. That should earn Rivera his place in both Monument Park and the Hall of Fame, especially when you factor in his 10 All-Star Game berths, three AL saves titles, and a 0.77 earned run average over 117 innings in 76 post-season games.
Rivera is having a fine 2008 with 23 saves and a 3.405 WXRL that ranks third in the AL behind only the Twins' Joe Nathan (4.361) and the Angels' Francisco Rodriguez (3.696). "Mariano is still the best closer in the game, and I don't think anyone can dispute that," Nathan said. "He's the guy that all of us closers want to be."
When it came time to reveal the starting lineups for tonight's game during a Monday morning press conference, Francona seemingly upset everyone in New York's five boroughs when he instead chose Indians left-hander Cliff Lee to pitch opposite the National League's Ben Sheets of the Brewers. Francona explained his rationale for opting against the gimmicky idea of giving Rivera his first start since September 5, 1995 (when he lost to the Mariners at Yankee Stadium in his rookie season): Rivera has made 812 consecutive relief appearances since. "The thing we've talked about in preparing for the game is treating the game with respect, knowing where we're playing and who's playing it," Francona said. "That being said, Mariano is one of the greatest relief pitchers of all time, but he's not a starter. I thought it would be unfair to the starting pitchers and unfair to (Lee) to start Mariano, and you're also putting a guy at risk if you ask him to do a job he hasn't done all season. We will treat every player with respect, certainly understanding there are Yankees in the game, and we'll treat the game correctly."
Lee has been the best starting pitcher in the AL this season by any measure you choose, whether it's his major league-best 4.6 SNLVAR and 9.8 expected wins or his 12-2 record and 2.31 ERA in 18 starts. He has compiled those statistics despite playing for an Indians team that has gone from within one game of the World Series last October (before losing in seven games to the Red Sox in the ALCS) to last place in the AL Central this season.
Making Lee's story even more compelling is that he's a guy whose career seemed to be falling apart last summer, after compiling 46 wins in a three-year span from 2005-07. Last year, he was 5-8 with a 6.29 ERA and 0.2 SNLVAR in 20 games, 16 of them starts, was banished to Triple-A Buffalo for more than two months, and then left off the Indians' post-season roster. Furthermore, Indians general manager Mark Shapiro shopped Lee throughout the offseason in an unsuccessful attempt to land a corner outfield bat in a trade. "There are a lot of pitchers this year having outstanding seasons, but none measured up to Cliff's," Francona said. "From his very first start of the year, he's been the most outstanding starting pitcher in the American League. We're excited and honored to announce him as our starting pitcher."
Lee found out about his assignment when he checked into the hotel Sunday night on Manhattan's East Side where the All-Star players and staff are staying. He admitted he was quite surprised, even if he seemed the most logical choice to everyone beyond those stumping for Rivera. "There was a note from Terry with all the paperwork they handed me that said I was starting," Lee said. "I'm completely baffled and honored by it. I'm kind of awe-struck by the whole thing. Honestly, it's just an honor to be here. To get the start is just icing on the cake. Sometimes going through failure makes you a better player in the long run. I think that's the case with me. Last year gave me a little motivation to go into the offseason and work a little harder to make sure I did everything I could to go out and give myself a chance to compete this season and prove I could have success like I did in the past. Fortunately, it's kind of worked out this year."
While Lee will start, the question now is who will end the game for the AL if it has a lead going into the bottom of the ninth, not an reasonable scenario considering the AL is currently on a 10-game All-Star Game winning streak. Francona, though, was playfully coy about his plans for a closer. In addition to Rivera, he has Nathan, Rodriguez, Red Sox closer Jonathan Papelbon and Orioles closer George Sherrill on his roster. "Clint Hurdle doesn't need any extra help," Francona said as to why he wouldn't reveal his strategy. "Anyway, it will give everyone something to write about (tonight)."
Clint Hurdle, manager of the Rockies and the NL squad, laughed when told of Francona's statement. "I'm going to stick my neck out there and say we're going to prepare for Rivera, maybe watch a little video of him," Hurdle said. Nathan, a New Yorker who grew up on Long Island, also has a pretty good idea who Francona will call on if there is a save situation. "It's going to be Mariano, that's an automatic," Nathan said. "It's his ballpark and his city. Who else is he going to use? Who else would anyone use?"

Steven Hesla to perform at 'Music in the Garden' in Wessington Springs
Steven Hesla, a Waconda native and professor of piano at The University of Montana's School of Music, will perform this season's first "Music in the Garden" concert at 7 p.m. Thursday.
Hesla will present the inaugural performance on the new memorial Kawai Digital Piano that has been donated to Wessington Springs' Shakespeare Garden by the families of the late Dr. Roscoe E. and Helen Dean, and the Rev. Don and Betty Rogers. Hesla has titled his program "The Rachmaninoff Montana Connection comes to South Dakota!"
Hesla received his Bachelor of Music degree from the Oberlin Conservatory of Music and his Master of Music degree from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Prior to his employment at The University of Montana, he served on the faculty at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo. A recipient of The University of Montana's Distinguished Faculty Award for the College of Visual and Performing Arts, Hesla has a teaching career celebrating many award-winning students in MTNA and other solo and piano concerto competitions.
The "Music in the Garden" summer Thursday evening outdoor concert series, featuring area performers, is held on the south lawn of Anne Hathaway Cottage in Shakespeare Garden which is located on the grounds of the former Wessington Springs College. The concerts are free but donations toward the care and upkeep of the garden are welcome. Beginning June 5, the concerts are held each Thursday evening through August 14. In case of inclement weather, the concerts will be moved to Wessington Springs' 1905 Opera House. Beginning at 6 p.m. various area eateries sell food to concert goers. A limited supply of chairs are available, but audience members are encouraged to bring their own lawn chairs. Guests are invited to enjoy food and music as they sit in Shakespeare Garden, which is cared for by the all-volunteer helpers led by the Shakespeare Garden Society Board. For more information, contact 539-1169 of www.shakespearegarden.blogspot.com

Fed's George: Appropriate to Trim Bond Buying
A Federal Reserve official on Friday called for the central bank to agree to start unwinding its bond-buying program at its coming meeting, reducing monthly purchases to an initial $70 billion.
Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City President Esther George called for a "gradual" unwinding of the stimulus program, and repeated her belief that it should end sometime during the first half of next year.
The Fed at its June meeting laid out a plan to slow bond purchases later in the year and stop them in 2014 if the economy improves as expected.
"For example, an appropriate next step toward normalizing monetary policy could be to reduce the pace of purchases from $85 billion to something around $70 billion a month, then have purchases going forward split evenly between Treasury and agency-MBS securities," said Ms. George in her prepared remarks Friday.

- rib, vertebral invasion
- Patients must have measurable disease, defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded) as >20 mm with conventional techniques or as >10 mm with spiral CT scan. See section 8.2 for the evaluation of measurable disease.
- Age >20 years. Because no dosing or adverse event data are currently available on the use of study agents in patients <20 years of age, children are excluded from this study.
- ECOG performance status 0-2; see Appendix A.
Patients must have normal organ and marrow function as defined below:
- absolute neutrophil count >1,500/mL
- platelets >100,000/mL
- total bilirubin <3X institutional upper limit of normal
- ALT(SGPT) <5 X institutional upper limit of normal
- creatinine within normal institutional limits or creatinine clearance >60 mL/min/1.73 m2 for patients with creatinine levels above institutional normal
- Patients who present with jaundice, temporary or permanent internal / external drainage before enrollment will be allowed.
- The effects of study agents on the developing human fetus at the recommended therapeutic dose are unknown. Women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.
- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients with distant metastases are not eligible.
- Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents.
- Patients who have had prior chemotherapy or radiotherapy are not eligible.
- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to study agents used in the study.
- Patients who have above grade II peripheral neuropathy.
- Patients who had non-curable second primary malignancy.
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because the study agents has the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with study agents, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with the study agents.
- Because patients with immune deficiency are at increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy, HIV-positive patients receiving combination anti-retroviral therapy are excluded from the study because of possible pharmacokinetic interactions with study agent administered during the study. Appropriate studies will be undertaken in patients receiving combination anti-retroviral therapy when indicated.

Lehrer and Lott have recycled their previous cherrypicking exercise into an article in the Investor's Business Daily falsely claiming that gun control in Britain, Canada and Australia have lead to "historic increases in crime". Mostly they repeat their previous claims, so I'll just comment on the new ones. They claim that "overall violent crime" in England increased by 118%. The graph above (from Chapter 5 of Crime in England and Wales 2002/2003) shows how utterly false their claim is. Since 1997, violent crime has declined significantly. Where did their 118% increase come from?
Well, the second graph shows the number of violent crimes recorded by the police. To get the increase that Lott and Lehrer claim, all you have to do is use the police numbers and ignore the footnote on the graph, which says (my emphasis):
"There is a discontinuity in the police recorded trend for violence in 1998 when new offence categories were added to police recorded violence, notably common assault, and new crime counting rules were introduced. The numbers of recorded violent crimes before and after this change should not be compared, as they are not on the same basis."
Lott and Lehrer claim:
the exploding crime rates (including gun crime) in countries that have banned all guns shows that we can add gun control to the list of government planning efforts that do not live up to their billing.
Their article only mentions gun crime in England. That's because gun crime in Australia and Canada, far from exploding, has decreased (see Australian and Canadian figures). This is not a problem for cherry pickers like Lott and Lehrer—they just deceive their readers by only reporting the increases in crime and not the decreases. And often when there have been decreases, like violent crime in England and homicide in Canada, they report them as increases.
Lehrer does some solo cherry picking at NRO, writing:
Since American crime rates peaked in the early 1990s, crime has fallen in 48 American states and over 80 percent of America's major cities. Meanwhile, it has risen in six of Canada's ten major providences [sic] and seven of its ten largest cities.
The crime rate in Canada has fallen significantly since the early 90s. I don't have the crime figures for each province, so i don't know whether Lehrer's claim is more cherry picking or just wrong.
Lehrer also wrongly compares the overall crime rate in Canada with that in the US. The crime rate is defined differently in the two places, so cannot be compared. He also repeats the cherry picked claims from his work with Lott: "Both the United Kingdom and Australia have seen crime soar". Lehrer seems well suited to collaborate with Lott.
Update: The earliest crime figures by city I could find at StatsCan were for 1995. Between 1995 and 2002 the crime rate has decreased in Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa, Hamilton and Quebec. The only large cities where it has increased are Winnipeg, Edmonton and Calgary. Now Lehrer's claim was about changes since the early nineties, but the overall crime rate in Canada was even higher then, so his claim about increases in most cities is likely false.

Autopsies add upFeb 13, 2014 By Steven R. Peck
The numbers in support of a regional pathology center in our county do too
The more Fremont County learns about the prospect of headquartering a regional autopsy center here, the more there is to like about the idea.
Fremont County Coroner Ed McAuslan updated the county commission on his investigation and planning on the matter last week, and the numbers add up.
It is an unfortunate reality of our community that dozens of autopsies are required each year. It is another unfortunate reality that those autopsies must be conducted hundreds of miles away at a center in Colorado.
McAuslan and others long have argued for the creation of an autopsy center here, along with the hiring of a forensic pathologist to run the operation.
While it always made common sense, it now appears to make financial sense as well. That's a good combination in its favor. The coroner showed figures to the commissioners demonstrating the cost savings of no longer having to travel to Colorado for autopsies, the cost benefits of serving as a regional hub for autopsies in Wyoming. He even noted previously unconsidered advantages such as having a forensic pathologist on hand for testimony in court cases.
Add to that the prospect of incorporating a forensic pathologist's expertise into a potential educational program in coordination with the Central Wyoming College's new Health and Science Center, and this proposal looks very attractive.
Commissioners now have asked for a draft budget on the idea, which is an indication of a positive frame of mind from members of the county's elected board. McAuslan is confident that the budget will "pencil out" favorably when weighed against the lost time, travel expense, autopsy fees and delays associated with the Colorado process, particularly when the prospect of being a magnet for neighboring counties is figured in.
When economic development opportunities are tossed around, performing more autopsies locally probably isn't one of the glamorous suggestions. But as a practical matter, there is every indication that it makes good sense for Fremont County.

Borges: Defense trumps dazzle
Credit: Christopher Evans
It's an adage as old as ice but it proved accurate once again. Defense wins championships.
Defense wins championships because defense is like a Toyota Corolla. It is not stylish. It is not flashy. It causes no one to stare as it drives by, but it always drives by because it's never in the shop.
Defense is what everyone craves but few fully value. Defense is reliable.

Great little room for the night
Almost perfect room and accommodation close to the centre of Windsor.
I stayed in the lodge, which was lovely, clean and had everything I could have asked for. It's right next to the road, however, and as a bad sleeper, it wasn't ideal in that respect. However, everything suited my needs, and the breakfast was lovely. I would definitely recommend and I would return in the future.

A fantastic find
We stayed at Park Farm for 2 evenings after booking online the previous evening.
What a find. The property was ideally situated for Windsor centre either walking or taxi (around £5). We were warmly welcomed and shown to a beautifully furnished and decorated en-suite room on the ground floor. Very quiet even though near main front door and staircase. It had tea and coffee making facilities, a hairdryer and tv and a very comfortable bed. The breakfasts were delicious, served in a spotless and very neat dining room. We helped ourselves to the buffet which catered for all needs - cereals, Musili, dried fruits, fresh fruit, yogurts, muffins and croissants. We had full English breakfasts which were piping hot and cooked to perfection. All served with ample tea and coffee and of course brown and white toast with butter, marmalade and a variety of jams.

Fruita, GJ high schools selected for AP program
Fruita Monument High School and Grand Junction High School are among seven Colorado schools tapped to participate in an Advanced Placement improvement program next school year.
The goal of the program is to increase diversity in AP classes and get more AP students to perform well on Advanced Placement tests.
As participants in the program, Advanced Placement English, science and math teachers at high schools from Colorado Springs, Denver, Grand Junction, Littleton, Northglenn and Pueblo will receive training in how to improve student success in those courses.
Students at those schools will get extra resources and support, more time in AP classes, and both students and teachers will be incentivized to succeed.
The program, known as Colorado Legacy Schools, will be implemented through the Colorado Legacy Foundation, a private, nonprofit group focused on education.
The foundation has so far gathered $128,640 from various organizations to implement the Colorado Legacy Schools program, and a challenge grant will provide an additional $150,000 for the program.
Samantha Long, director of Colorado Legacy Schools, said the seven schools selected for the program were chosen based on their "readiness and interest" in implementing the program in 2010–11, according to a press release from the Colorado Department of Education.

FA didn't sound out Redknapp
ESPN can reveal that Harry Redknapp did not even receive an unofficial approach from the FA ahead of its surprise announcement that Roy Hodgson will be interviewed for the England manager's job on Monday.
• Harry holds no grudges over FA snub
• Hoddle: Hodgson a "good choice"
• Hodgson poised for England
• Hodgson in England talks
Tottenham manager Redknapp was widely expected to replace Fabio Capello as head coach having received huge public support from England players such as Rio Ferdinand and Wayne Rooney, plus members of the FA board including Bolton chairman Phil Gartside, who claimed the Spurs boss would make an "outstanding England manager".
And after months of relentless speculation that Redknapp was the manager-elect, the former West Ham boss was taken by "surprise" by the FA's decision not even to approach Spurs for permission to speak to him.
A source close to Redknapp told ESPN: "He took it pragmatically. I thought he would be upset, but he didn't appear to be. He has not been approached at all."
Redknapp had one more season left on a £3.5 million-a year-contract and it is thought the FA may have had to pay around £10 million in compensation to land him, even if his club had agreed to allow them to speak to the 65-year-old.
However, Redknapp made no secret of his desire to manage England and the FA's snub will come as a huge let down in his career; like some before him who were billed as 'the people's choice', such as Brian Clough, the chance may never come around again.
"I can't see it coming up for me now," Redknapp told The Times. "Good luck to Roy. Everyone else was saying I might get it but I never spoke to Daniel Levy (the Spurs chairman) about England."
The former Portsmouth manager is now turning his attention to his job at White Hart Lane and is waiting to learn whether he will be offered a new contract.
He added: "I've got a great job at Spurs and I'd like to continue that for as long as I can. It's up to Daniel whether I get a new contract but I'd like to stay on. We've had a few difficult weeks but it's been a great four years. I will plan the future here."
FA target Hodgson took Switzerland to the 1994 World Cup and qualified the nation for Euro '96 - at one point during his reign they were ranked third in the world - and also had spells with Finland and the United Arab Emirates.
The West Brom boss is out-of-contract in the summer and his club have quickly confirmed permission has been granted for talks to open. The FA could reach a successful conclusion very quickly, although his club would like the former Inter Milan manger to continue at the Hawthorns.
"The club are currently in negotiations with Roy about a new contract - his current deal ends on June 30 - and remain very keen to bring these talks to a successful conclusion," said West Brom chairman Jeremy Peace. "However, Roy has expressed a desire to explore this opportunity and, accordingly, the club have granted him permission to speak to the FA.
"Roy has done a fantastic job over the past 15 months and the fact the FA want to discuss the England role with him is testament to that.
"Roy is a proud Englishman and we can understand why he wants to speak to the FA about this highly-prestigious managerial position.
"However, we have emphasised to Roy how much we would like him to remain as our head coach and continue his major contribution to our project at the Hawthorns as we look to establish ourselves as a Premier League club."
It is still possible Hodgson will say no but that seems unlikely as, in an extensive interview earlier this year, the Londoner said the job would be "a tremendous honour".
With his contract almost up, Hodgson would command barely any compensation, another factor which may just have helped the FA reach their decision.
"I'm grateful to Jeremy and all at West Bromwich Albion for their co-operation in allowing us to approach Roy, who I have since spoken with," said FA chairman David Bernstein. "Roy is the only manager we have approached and we remain on course to make an appointment within the timescale we set out soon after Fabio Capello's departure.
"Further conversations will now take place with Roy and my Club England colleagues before any further announcements can be made."
