Wednesday, September 22.—<U.R)—Recurrent rumors that Japan's mighty air fleet, which threatened to destroy this capital by aerial bombardment, planned to wipe out the civil and military population with a gas attack spread panic $mong thousands of Chinese today. Pear of a gas attack increased when the Chinese military command ordered all gas masks throughout the city confiscated for military purposes. The rumors increased tension in the city, whose inhabitants have been fearfully awaiting the threatened Japanese raid for nearly two days. SHELTERS ERECTED Hundreds of coolies worked throughout the night tearing up sidewalks in the business section to construct dugouts affording at least half the city's population some semblance of shelter if the great Japanese air armada carries out its threat to blow Nanking off the map. Military experts said many of the dugouts were death traps, and pointed out that collapsing shelters killed as many Chinese as the Japanese raiders did yesterday in their second 'preliminary raid" on the city. GAS MASKS EXHACSTED Drug stores were besieged by Chinese and foreigners, seeking to purchase makeshift £auze "masks" on which an anti-gas preparation is poured. Tlie city's supply of the needed chemicals, which are effective against gas for only 15 minutes, is nearly exhausted. Tension in the foreign colony was ircroased by a rising resentment agf inst Americans because of the evrcuation of the United States [embasry to the gunboat Luzon, anchored in the Yangtse river. The handful of Americans regaining in the city were subjected iy.o a series of near-insuits, not only by the Chinese but by other foreign nationals. as hours pass?d following expira-I tion of the Japanese zero hour for beginning the "destruction" of the city by an aerial bombardment, the ! Chinese population was increasingly nervous and the fear-complex exhibited itself in dented criticism of the United States government and Americans generally. TO BE HEARD By Margaret Lewis (Program Notes in today's Concert are Printed on Page Two). Opportunities to hear great symphonic and operatic music will again be offered students and faculty this term through the Listening Hour, a program which will be played on the new Scott radio-phonograph in Bovard auditorium beginning at 3:30 p.m. The importance and popularity of this program caused the administration last spring to approve purchase of new equipment for its presentation. "The campus as a whole, we hope. will make this new machine its own by using it through the Listening Hour program. Attendance can j never be too large. We want every- I one to come and enjoy this expe- 1 rience of great music," Miss Pauline j j Alderman, professor of music and j I director ol the program, said yes- i I terday.

September 21. — <U.E>— Major Julian Troncoso, Spanish rebel commander, who was arrested by French secret police in connection with the attempted "hijacking" of a Loyalist submarine was removed to a jail in Bayonne tonight when 1,000 rebel troops threatened to cross the border and exact reprisals. Squadrons of French mobile guards were rushed to the Pyrenees frontier after Troncoso had told authorities that his arrest was "A veritable declaration of war on Nationalist Spain." TRONCOSO INVOLVED Troncoso, right-hand man of In-surgent Generalissimo * Francisco I Franco, was said by police to have been involved not only in the at-j tempted hijacking of the Loyalist j U-boat, C-2, at Brest but in theter-i rorism of "Les Cagoulards," French secret society of hooded men. The Rebel major, military commandant of Irun. opposite Hendaye on the Franco-Spanish frontier, said | that unless he was released immediately and allowed to return to Spain, the French consul at San Sebastian, J. E. Lesmartres, would be seized as a hostage. INSURGENTS THREATEN The 1.000 insurgent troops, red-capped requetes of Franco's monarchist divisions, were reported to have agreed to break through the barricades at the International bridge tomorrow and storm the unprece- | French commissariat at Hendaye unless their leader is released. Police revealed that a woman provided the Surete Nationale. France's Scotland Yard, with the information that led to the major's arrest as he Spain across bridge.

49ers make a statement in beating Detroit, 25-19
49ERS 25, LIONS 19 Led by defense, S.F. tops Detroit to start 5-1 for 1st time since '98
Recommended Video:
Detroit -- - As they jogged back to their respective huddles in the third quarter Sunday, 49ers rookie cornerback Chris Culliver had a message for one of the NFL's best wide receivers.
On a deep pass that fell incomplete, Culliver, who had been running stride for stride with Detroit's Calvin Johnson, had felt yet another shove from the 6-foot-5, 236-pounder. In response, Culliver, a third-round pick playing in his fifth NFL game, began lecturing the legend in the making.
"I was looking up for the ball, and he was pushing me again," Culliver said. "That's his game, but I told him he needed to stop that. I told him I wasn't going to take that."
Culliver's don't-mess-with-me attitude, it's fair to say, was shared by the rest of his defensive teammates, who delivered a dominant performance in the resilient 49ers' 25-19 comeback victory over the previously unbeaten Lions before a raucous crowd of 62,061 at Ford Field.
True, the most enduring image will be head coach Jim Harbaugh's volatile postgame exchange with the Lions' Jim Schwartz, who took exception to his counterpart's adrenaline-fueled handshake and subsequent rap on the back. And the biggest play was quarterback Alex Smith's go-ahead 6-yard slant to tight end Delanie Walker on 4th-and-goal with 1:51 remaining.
And in the big picture, the focus is on the apparent rebirth of a once-proud franchise - off to its first 5-1 start since 1998 after posting its third straight comeback victory on the road. They have four straight wins for the first time since a five-game streak in 2001.
What made it all possible was a unit that delivered five sacks in what defensive coordinator Vic Fangio called the best performance with which he has ever been associated.
Fangio has been coaching in the NFL for only 25 years.
"We just kept going out there and stopping them, for the most part," Fangio said. "On the road. In this building. With all the firepower that they have on their offense. We knew it was going to be this kind of game, where it was going to be a struggle for our offense ... and we had to stand up to that on defense, because if we would have caved in on defense, we would have had no chance."
The chances of victory appeared slim after the Lions (5-1) took a 10-0 first-quarter lead on Matthew Stafford's 16-yard dart to tight end Brandon Pettigrew. At that point, Ford Field was rocking and the 49ers' offense was reeling, having produced more turnovers (one) than first downs and almost as many penalty yards (10) as offensive yards (14) in their opening three series.
Quarterback Alex Smith said the defense allowed the Niners to steady themselves. After Pettigrew's touchdown, the Lions' next seven drives produced three points, a missed field-goal try, four punts and a safety.
It was another stellar performance for a defense that has allowed 25 points in its past 10 quarters. On Sunday, the stars included rookie linebacker Aldon Smith (two sacks and a safety), defensive tackle Justin Smith (seven tackles, 1.5 sacks), inside linebacker NaVorro Bowman (a game-high 13 tackles) and, of course, linebacker Patrick Willis (seven tackles and three passes defended).
"The defense played unbelievable today," Alex Smith said. "They deserve all the credit for the W. I mean just played lights out."
Detroit, which entered averaging 31.8 points per game, had 310 yards, 69 below its average, and Stafford (28-for-50, 293 yards, two touchdowns, no interceptions) did not appear completely comfortable. The Niners kept Detroit off balance by mixing up their coverages, which kept Johnson, who had set an NFL record with nine receiving touchdowns in the season's first five games, out of the end zone.
On occasion, the Niners used man-to-man coverage on Johnson, who quietly had seven catches for 113 yards. More frequently, though, they had a safety shadowing him.
"We knew he was a tough guy and a tremendous athlete," safety Dashon Goldson said, "but they put too much focus on him. And we felt if we went out there and contained him, let the other guys beat us, we'd have our chance."
The 49ers had their chance at the end. And the offense delivered.
Trailing 19-15 with less than six minutes left, the Niners embarked on an eight-play, 35-yard drive set up by Ted Ginn's 40-yard punt return.
On 4th-and-goal, Smith delivered the 6-yarder to Walker, who had failed to reel in a TD catch in the third quarter.
"I knew I had to make up for the one I had in the end zone when I bobbled it and didn't get it," Walker said.
This time, Walker secured the ball and, as a result, the Niners secured a victory made possible by their defense.

Yankees & Bulls battle in IL Championship
The 2008 Governors' Cup Finals get underway in eastern Pennsylvania in a best-of-five
matchup for the International League Championship. The finalists each won their first round series 3 games to 1, setting up a Finals series that has been a long time coming.
Read the entire Championship Preview: CLICK HERE
The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees won the IL North Championship this season with an IL-best 88-56 record. They will meet the Durham Bulls, winners of the IL South Division by a comfortable 9.0-game margin. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and Durham have never met in the playoffs, an astonishing fact when considering that one of these teams has played in seven of the last ten Governors' Cup Finals. Five times in the last ten years the IL playoffs have included both clubs, but they have never met in the postseason until now. The Yankees took seven out of eight against Durham this year, but the teams have not been together on the field since early May.
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre has never won a Governors' Cup title. They previously reached the Finals in 1992, 2000, and 2001, coming up short each time. Durham, a member of the IL since 1998, is playing in the franchise's sixth Governors' Cup Finals and looking for its third championship. The Bulls lost in the Finals in 1998 and 1999 before winning back-to-back crowns in 2002 and 2003. Durham lost 3 games to 2 in last year's championship series against Richmond.
The Durham Bulls are in the Governors' Cup Finals for the sixth time in the last 11 years. The Bulls are looking to win the Cup for the third time, following back-to-back championships in 2002 and 2003. The 2002 Durham club is one of just five teams in League history to win the Governors' Cup without losing a single postseason game. The 2003 Bulls swept Pawtucket in the Finals after the Red Sox posted the League's best regular season record, the last time the best regular season club lost in the Finals. When Durham lost in last year's Finals to Richmond, it broke a string of five straight Governors' Cups for American League affiliates.
The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre franchise has never won a Governors' Cup, despite this being their eighth playoff appearance and fourth trip to the Finals since 1992. Each of the team's three previous Finals losses came by one game, including the 2001 championship which was called in Louisville's favor after one game due to the September 11 terrorist attacks. Dave Miley is attempting to become just the second skipper to win the Governors' Cup in the same season he managed the IL team at the Triple-A All-Star Game (Larry Parrish of Toledo, 2006).
A Yankees victory would mark just the second time in the last ten years that a North Division team won the Governors' Cup (Buffalo, 2004). The South Division, on the other hand, owns three of the last six IL titles. This is the first time in four years that the Wild Card entry has not been part of the Governors' Cup Finals.

Original Story From CBS Boston
(CBS) Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews was on the ice for the team's morning skate and said he'll play in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final as the Hawks look to capture their second Stanley Cup in four seasons.
Toews said he was "100 percent ready to go" after he sat out the third period of Game 5 following a hit from Bruins defenseman Johnny Boychuk.
Though the extent of his injury is unknown, the 25-year-old Toews was seen skating on the first line with Patrick Kane and Bryan Bickell Monday morning.
Hawks forward Marian Hossa, who was a late scratch in Game 3 with an unspecified injury, didn't participate in the morning skate but is expected to play. Jamal Mayers took his place on the second line.
Bruins center Patrice Bergeron also didn't participate in Boston's morning skate after suffering an injury in Game 5.

You settle into your hammock, a cigar in one hand, a highball in the other. Across the street, your neighbor is toiling away, sweat dripping down his brow. You're both performing the same task: mowing the lawn.
But, while the other fellow is shoving a heavy machine, you let a trusty pint-sized creature scurry around the yard under its own power. The green, plastic Husqvarna Auto Mower, a cross between a small bumper car and an oversized computer mouse, is the only lawn-cutting device that keeps your grass as manicured as Augusta without your even having to be there.
Other robotic lawn mowers need to be started and have their batteries recharged. The Auto Mower will automatically roust itself and cut your grass, even if you're out on the golf course or enjoying a night on the town. You program the built-in microprocessor to cut the lawn when you want it to and the Auto Mower is on its own, even returning to a docking station to recharge the battery when the juice runs low.
A perimeter wire keeps the mover within your lawn and a recharging loop helps it find the docking station. The low-voltage wire, either stapled atop the ground or buried, should be professionally installed ($150 to $250). Then you program the cutting time on the mower's keyboard, and you're set.
The 15.6-pound, 10.3-inch-high mower, which cuts in a random pattern, operates for about 90 minutes, then scoots to the docking station to recharge, which takes another 90 minutes. Collision sensors detect objects and steer the mower in a different direction after bumping them. Another sensor immediately stops the blade if the machine is lifted or tilted. A security alarm helps deter would-be thieves.
And, unlike those Neanderthal neighbors still pushing or riding their gas-guzzlers, you can't be accused of polluting the air or puncturing eardrums. The Husqvarna emits zero emissions, relying on the equivalent of a 60-watt light bulb to operate, and is virtually silent. In addition, the finely mulched clippings help replenish the soil.
The $1,500 mower runs in the rain, handles lawns of up to half an acre and can manage slopes of less than 20 degrees.

Mitt Romney's recent declaration comparing President Obama's performance to Kim Kardashian's quickly dashed marriage marked another sign that we're in for a silly season of odd media meldings in which pop culture meets presidential politics in ever-changing ways.
A new Michele Bachmann ad airing in Iowa crowns her "America's 'Iron Lady'" and flashes a picture of Margaret Thatcher – a spot apparently pegged, as The Hollywood Reporter notes, to the just-released movie starring Meryl Streep as the former British prime minister. Meanwhile, Jim Bob Duggar and 12 of his children – stars of the TLC reality show "19 Kids and Counting" – left their crowded Arkansas home to campaign in Iowa this week for Rick Santorum.
Touting celebrity endorsements and invoking historic figures and pop culture references on the campaign trail, of course, are nothing new. But the form the devices are taking as of late is a reflection of the devolving definition of celebrity – reality TV stars as pop cultural benchmarks and potential influencers – and of candidates trying to use the changing media landscape to stand out in a crowded field.
The ongoing series of Republican debates has been likened to a reality show by some – including Obama, who compared the sessions to "Survivor." Asked in October whether he'd been watching the debates, the President said, "I'm going to wait until everybody is voted off the island."
His quip came on "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" – the latest entertainment show appearance by a president who has been criticized by some for making too many such guest spots, including a stint on "Mythbusters."
We've already seen some of the GOP candidates flock to the late-night comedy show circuit, seemingly with greater frequency and somewhat earlier in the contest, compared to past campaigns. Rick Perry mocked his verbal gaffes on "Late Show With David Letterman." Jon Huntsman joked about his low profile on "Saturday Night Live." Bachmann showed a good sense of humor on "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon," and likely scored some post-show points with the apology she received for The Roots' tasteless choice of entry music.
Who can blame those trying to get hired for the most important job in the land for seeking all the exposure they can when the likes of Donald Trump, a billionaire, a possible third-party candidate – and, perhaps most importantly, a reality TV star – can snatch away attention with a blustery barb? Most of the GOP candidates, meanwhile, wouldn't mind a nod from another Reality TV star and potential kingmaker: 2004 Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
Even amid the high stakes, watching the pop culture-tinged elements of this contest – part soap opera, part sporting event – undoubtedly is part of the allure, much like viewing the latest Kardashian show or following "America Idol." Get ready for 10 more months of keeping up with the candidates.

Off-season Giants: Parcells, passing up the Saints job, always said he'd need less as he got older
A weekly column about what the Giants and Jets are doing when they're not playing football.
When word first spread that Bill Parcells was considering returning to the N.F.L. to coach the Saints, I kept going back to a passage from Michael Lewis's insightful 2006 profile, from when Parcells coached the Cowboys.
"As you get older," Parcells tells Lewis toward the end of the article, "your needs diminish. They don't increase. They diminish. I need less money. I need less sex. But this - this - doesn't change."
Lewis takes it from here:
What this is, he can't – or won't – specify. But when your life has been defined by the pressure of competition and your response to it, there's a feeling you get, and it's hard to shake. You wake up each morning knowing the next game is all that matters. If you fail in it, nothing you've done with your life counts. By your very nature you always have to start all over again, fresh. It's an uncomfortable feeling, but it's nonetheless addictive. Even if you have millions in the bank and everyone around you tells you that you're a success, you seek out that uncomfortable place.
Parcells was 65 when the story was written, and now he's 71. I know most explanations for why he didn't return centered on his Hall of Fame candidacy: Parcells didn't get elected on his first year on the ballot last year but is expected to make it one of these next several years, and returning to the field would have set back his clock for five additional years. For a man who cited health problems when he quit the Giants two decades ago, returning to coach would mean there was no guarantee he'd be around for the honor.
But perhaps it has to do with what Parcells was talking about: his needs' diminishing over time. He's always been endlessly fascinated by the idea of competition and pressure: "That's the only thing any of us really responds to," he once told the Harvard Business Review. But maybe now, even that has subsided with age. Maybe the boxing gyms he goes to in Jersey City and his horses in Saratoga are enough to scratch that itch.
THE GIANTS ARE RETURNING THE CORE OF A TEAM THAT just won the Super Bowl. As of the end of last month, they only had around $3.5 million in salary cap space. So their offseason has been quiet, as expected.
But on Wednesday, their general manager Jerry Reese made several low-risk moves, acquiring linebacker Keith Rivers, offensive tackle Sean Locklear and cornerback Antwaun Molden.
The trade of a fifth-round pick for Rivers, 26, was the most high-profile move. Rivers was the ninth overall pick in the 2008 draft, and by 2010 had blossomed into one of the better linebackers in the league: That year, Pro Football Focus ranked him as the ninth-best outside linebacker in 4-3 schemes.
But he missed all of last year with a wrist injury that was rumored to be degenerative—he disputed this—and has not once played a full 16-game season. The most well-known of his various injuries was the broken jaw he suffered when Pittsburgh's Hines Ward sent him airborne with a block, a play that subsequently led to a rule-change prohibiting blockers from launching themselves at unsuspecting defenders.
Rivers is a weakside linebacker by trade, which leaves the Giants with three key players whose best position is weakside linebacker: Michael Boley, Jacquian Williams, and Rivers. Earlier this offseason, Reese floated the idea that Boley could be moved to middle linebacker, and rumors of that picked up steam after the Rivers acquisition.
While Boley, listed at 230 pounds, doesn't fit the classic image of a boxy, run-stuffing middle linebacker, such players are no longer in demand in the pass-centric N.F.L. Also important with regard to the composition of the linebackers is that the Giants are in their base 4-3 defense package less than half the time. More often, they use nickel and dime packages designed to stop the pass, in which Boley mans one of two linebacker spots.
How much Rivers plays and which linebacker plays where are open question now; the Giants still have Mathias Kiwanuka penciled in at strongside, and still have Mark Herzlich and Greg Jones, who both showed some degree of promise as rookies last year. What's most likely is that Reese and the coaches don't have the answer to these questions themselves. They'll try a bunch of combinations in training camp, and, as always in football, let performance and injuries decide the rest.
The important thing about this move is that Reese proactively acquired a player with significant upside, thus adding depth to a position whose thinness threatened to derail the season last year. It was only after the Giants dipped into the ranks of aspiring Ohio middle school teachers and re-acquired Chase Blackburn 11 games into the season that the linebacking corps was stabilized.
Also credit Reese also for making the moves within the narrow parameters of the Giants salary cap situation: Rivers is scheduled to make $2.16 million next year, although the latest reports say he and the Giants restructured his contract.
LIKE THE RIVERS TRADE, WEDNESDAY'S SIGNING of offensive tackle Sean Locklear—for 1 year and less than $1 million—provides another serviceable body to another positional group whose composition is an open question.
According to the Pro Football Focus rankings, Locklear had an outstanding 2010 with the Seattle Seahawks, ranking as the third-best pass blocker at tackle, ahead of such luminaries as D'Brickashaw Ferguson and Joe Thomas. But last year, Locklear played poorly at both right tackle and left tackle as a member of the Washington Redskins, allowing four sacks and twelve pressures in roughly the equivalent of five full games.
He'll be 31 when this season starts, so it's reasonable to wonder whether Locklear is experiencing the same precipitous age-related decline suffered last year by Kareem McKenzie, the incumbent right tackle who the Giants declined to re-up this offseason.
The Giants have expressed interest in having second-year man James Brewer take McKenzie's spot. What the Locklear acquisition does is provide insurance and competition at both tackle positions, the other of which is expected to be manned by Will Beatty, who had a so-so first season as a starter last year before he was lost to injury after 10 games.
The move will also enable David Diehl, who switched back to left tackle from left guard last year, to move back to a position for which his massive fire hydrant frame is more physiologically suited.
THE LAST OF WEDNESDAY'S MOVES WAS THE SIGNING OF CORNERBACK Antwaun Molden.
The signing provides some illusory comfort because Giants fans recognize Molden's name, and in general, football players that you've heard of tend to be better than those you haven't.
You've probably heard of Molden, for two reasons: First, his name rhymes—twice!—with that of Anquan Boldin, the longtime stellar wide receiver, so it therefore sticks in the head. Second, he was one of the several overstretched cornerbacks Bill Bellichick trotted out last year, frequently on national television, to populate a pass defense that allowed the league's fourth-most net yards per attempt (and was third-worst in the FootballOutsiders DVOA rankings).
Molden's a semi-adequate N.F.L. player at best and a bad one at worst. The Patriots were only able to pick him up last year after he had been cut in training camp in the Houston Texans, who made a third-round investment on him in 2008 that he never justified.
Last year, Molden allowed quarterbacks who threw in his direction an average passer rating of 94.7, compared to the league-wide rating of 82.5. A particular lowlight was the Super Bowl, during which he allowed five completions on five balls thrown his way.
Included among these was a 14-yard slant to Hakeem Nicks on the Giants final drive, which turned a 2nd and 8 from the Patriots' 34-yard-line into a 1st down from the 18 (at the 3:45 mark here). According to the win probability graphs of AdvancedNFLStats.com, this play increased the Giants' chances of winning from 65 to 80 percent. In other words, it was the moment Giants fans went from thinking their team probably should win to thinking they would almost definitely win.
On the bright side, Molden had nine tackles on special teams last year and is known as a solid contributor in that area.
APPARENTLY JAKE BALLARD, THE TIGHT END WHO CAME out of nowhere and did yeoman work for much of last season, not only tore his ACL in the Super Bowl, but also tore cartilage.
Previously, most thought the ACL was the extent of his injury, but Jeff Roberts of the Bergen Record reports that he underwent both ACL surgery and the dreaded microfracture surgery, in which doctors drill holes into the kneecap and transplant stem cells in the hopes of spurring the growth of new cartilage.
The list of athletes whose careers have been derailed by microfracture is long and distinguished, but success rates have improved in the past decade since the operation's early big name casualties like Penny Hardaway, Alan Houston, and Tracy McGrady. Still, for every Amar'e Stoudemire or Marques Colston—players who seemingly have fully recovered—there's a Steve Smith, another Giant who blossomed into a better-than-expected receiver only to see stardom snatched away by the surgery.
The sad thing about Ballard's situation is that he thinks he tore the cartilage during an infamously gruesome sideline incident, captured on television, in which he tried to run on his injured knee and collapsed in a heap of agony. Apparently the Giants medical staff initially misdiagnosed Ballard's injury as a torn meniscus, which would have left the slight possibility that he could play through it. But because it was the ACL, which stabilizes the joint, Ballard's knee completely collapsed on itself once he tried putting weight on it.
"My knee just collapsed," Ballard is quoted as saying. "I definitely tore [my ACL] on the field. I'd say [the cartilage damage] probably happened on the sideline from trying to run with no ACL.
"But I don't regret trying to get back in the game. It's the biggest game in any football player's career."
THE NFL FILMS SUPER BOWL XLVI HIGHLIGHT compilation—the sort that fills up afterhours programming time on ESPN during football season—hit YouTube this week. These things don't have the singular grip on mythmaking that they once did, what with the riches of highlights to be found on the internet. But for any fanbase, it's still an anticipated part of the spoils for winning a Super Bowl.
Giants fans will probably be pretty disappointed in this one, however. The tone seems Patriots-centric, focusing less on the Giants' glory than the Patriots' doomed struggle. Perhaps this stems from the fact that Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, and Vince Wilfork were mic'd up for the Patriots, and they wind up saying more interesting stuff than the Giants' duo of Victor Cruz and Michael Boley.
That's not to say it doesn't have its moments. Among them:
—Justin Tuck's pregame speech to his teammates (1:10): "How bad do y'all want it today? I got a ring. Chris [Canty], you ain't got one – you don't know what it feel like! Rock[y Bernard], you ain't got one – you don't know what it feel like! Linval [Joseph], you ain't got one, you don't know what it feel like! Baas, you ain't got one, you don't know what it feel like!"
—A great shot of Victor Cruz juking Patriots safety James Ihedigbo (6:30) at the line of scrimmage to free himself for his first quarter touchdown catch. It's one thing to talk about quickness and to see it on television. It's another to see it like this and picture what Cruz would do to your ankles.
—This is followed by a mic'd up Cruz's high-pitched convulsions of "Let's go!" as he leaps his way down the sideline. At around the 6:50 mark, he gets an incredulous look on his face that makes it look like he's taking it all in and thinking to himself, "I can't believe this—all of this—is actually happening."
—A nice montage, set to a swelling score, of course, of the Giants' defensive line battering Brady and batting down his passes, culminating words of admiration from Brady.
"It's just they're so athletic," he says to teammate Wes Welker. "It's like throwing in a forest, dude. Those fucking guys' arms are like…" And then he trails off.
—Belichick's now famous last words (14:15) on which Giants receivers to cover: "This is still a Cruz and Nicks game," he tells his defensive backs. "Make 'em throw to Manningham, make 'em throw to Pascoe, alright? But let's make sure we get Cruz and Nicks."

Moving in Texas
We understand moving is stressful and the TxDMV wants to help you to protect yourself. That's why we say "Don't Make A Move Without Us!" By law, Texas movers must be licensed with the TxDMV. If you hire one that isn't, you risk losing your belongings.
Keep in mind that the lowest price may not be the best deal - especially those offered on Internet message boards or sites. You might fall prey to a dishonest moving company that may demand more money to unload your possessions or fails to show up for delivery.
Before you hire a mover, first check our Truck Stop, the database that can tell you whether a company is licensed with the TxDMV. A licensed Texas mover will have an "Active" TxDMV certificate number on file.
Step 1: Look Up
A Mover Online
We also prepared a Moving Checklist to help you with your move. If you do have a problem, we'll try to help. Please take the time to read the information below so you know what steps to take before and after the move.
Before Your Move
1. Choose a Licensed Mover
You will have many choices when it comes to selecting a moving company. If your mover isn't licensed to conduct moves in Texas, you could risk losing your material possessions, family heirlooms or other items of personal and irreplaceable value. It is illegal for a mover to operate without a license to conduct moves. You can check that your mover is licensed in Texas by checking our Truck Stop database.
An "Active" certificate status means the mover is licensed.
If you can't find a moving company in our database, ask your mover to give you a copy of their TxDMV Certificate number and check that information in our Truck Stop database.
Because prices and services offered vary from mover to mover, we recommend you shop around before hiring a licensed mover. Keep in mind that the lowest price may not make the best deal. Don't be afraid to ask questions and make sure you get everything in writing. Licensed movers are insured and will provide you with the proper documents for your move.
How to Spot an Unlicensed Mover
Low Priced Moves
If it's too good to be true, it probably is. What may look like a low cost move may not turn out to be a smart move. Unlicensed movers may advertise a very low cost for a move then increase the price once your items are loaded onto their truck. Your items would be in their custody until you pay the higher price.
Generic Contact Information
Unlicensed movers typically have no local business address, use cell phones as their business phones or answer the phone with vague terms as "Movers" or "Moving Company". Ask questions. Ask the mover to give you their TxDMV certificate number; then check their number in our Truck Stop database.
Unmarked Trucks
Unlicensed movers will typically have no markings on their trucks or use rental trucks. TxDMV requires all licensed movers to have their name, TxDMV certificate number, USDOT number on both sides of their truck either permanently attached or with a magnetic sign.
No Proposal/Contract Documents
Unlicensed movers may not provide you with a proposal or contract document, or, may rush you through a contract form and make you sign it before reading it. A licensed mover will provide you with both a proposal and a contract document and will ask you to sign it at different stages of the move. A licensed mover will not assess additional charges after the contract is signed unless you both agree to them in writing. Please make sure you read any documents before you sign them.
No "Rights and Responsibility" brochure provided
All licensed movers are required to provide you this document prior to loading your items.
2. Review Proposals and Contracts
Read all documents before you sign your name.
Even though most movers are legitimate and reputable, unwary consumers may fall prey to dishonest moving companies and could lose more than just what they paid to have their items moved.
Once you've selected your mover, make sure to get your agreement in writing. A licensed mover will provide you with both a proposal/estimate and a moving services contract BEFORE they begin to load your items. Some will give you a combined form that includes both the proposal and the contract together.
Prior to loading, the mover must provide you with a written proposal describing the services to be performed and indicating the maximum amount that you could be required to pay for their services. The proposal may be either binding or not-to-exceed:
- A binding proposal states the exact price of the move.
- A not-to-exceed proposal states the maximum price of the move but allows the mover to charge less than the maximum.
To receive an accurate estimate, you must notify your mover of all items to be moved and specify required services such as moving your items up or down several flights of stairs, via long carries to/from your dwelling or using an elevator. Some movers will provide services such as these at an additional cost. The proposal should also indicate when payment is due and what forms of payment are accepted.
Licensed movers will also provide you with a moving services contract prior to loading your items. The items written on your proposal become a part of your contract along with the contract terms and conditions.
Don't rely on any verbal agreements.
Be sure all agreements between you and your mover are written into the moving services contract. Last, but not least, remember to read all documents thoroughly and carefully before signing them.
3. Understand Liability vs. Transit Insurance
Mover's Liability
All licensed movers have a basic liability of $.60 per pound, per article. For example, if your 50 pound television is damaged during your move, your mover is liable for a maximum of $30.00 (50 lbs. X 0.60 = $30.00). While your mover cannot reduce the amount of liability below $.60 per pound, per article; they can agree to a higher amount of liability which must be agreed upon in writing by both parties and which may come at an additional cost to you. Remember, this is not insurance.
Transit Insurance
Some movers may offer to sell you a transit insurance policy, which helps cover loss or damage to your items, or you may wish to purchase transit insurance separately. Your mover is required to provide you with a copy of the policy and/or any other appropriate evidence of insurance purchased through them. Transit insurance is not regulated by the TxDMV or the Texas Department of Insurance so be sure to read the transit insurance policy carefully and understand the coverage and any deductibles.
During your Move
Some licensed movers may offer to prepare a descriptive inventory of your items for an additional cost. The inventory should list all items to be moved and their condition. The document should be signed by both you and the mover at both the point of origin and the destination. Remember to review the inventory for accuracy before you sign it.
Inventories are often used during the claims process so inspect your shipment carefully. Make sure all items are accounted for and indicate any obvious damages during the move.
Movers may prepare an inventory for their own use without an agreement between you and them. If so, the mover cannot assess a fee for preparing it.
Packing and Loading
Depending upon your agreement with your mover, you may be doing some of the preparation for your move.
If you're doing your own packing, be careful about overloading boxes. To avoid damage, do not pack fragile items with heavy items in the same box. Mark fragile boxes.
Do not pack valuables (such as jewelry or money), medications or important papers for loading into the mover's truck. The mover is not responsible for these items.
Your mover may have additional tips for preparing for your move.
Your mover must provide you with a completed copy of the moving services contract, signed by the two of you upon delivery of the shipment.
Check the condition of your property and make any notations on the contract document before signing. Signing the contract upon delivery does not release the mover from any liabilities. The signatures only confirm that the shipment was delivered.
Payment of Charges
The proposal document must explain when you will be required to pay your mover and what form of payment is accepted. Remember that the last amended contract or written proposal lists the total price that you will be required to pay at the time of delivery.
You should be prepared to pay the maximum amount of money shown on the written proposal provided by your mover.
In Case of a Problem
Damage Claims
If you have a dispute about the charges or loss/damage to your goods, you must first file a written claim with your mover within 90 days of the delivery date. You must include enough information for the mover to investigate your claim along with any specific monetary amounts requested or other type of compensation you are seeking. If your mover does not receive your claim on time, your claim could be denied. If your claim involves damaged goods, you should preserve the containers along with the damaged goods so your mover may inspect them.
Your mover has 20 days (excluding Sundays and nationally recognized holidays) to acknowledge your claim in any written form, unless the claim is resolved within 20 days. The acknowledgment letter must contain specific language required by the TxDMV rule regarding the claims process and the claimant's right to request mediation from TxDMV. Your mover's acknowledgment letter will look similar to the sample posted below. Your mover has 90 days from receipt of a claim to pay, decline to pay, or make a firm settlement offer in writing to the claimant. Your mover has the right to inspect containers or damaged goods within 30 days of receiving your claim. If you are not satisfied with your settlement, you can contact the TxDMV for mediation or you may pursue the claim in a court of law (some counties require mediation before you can pursue your claim in a court of law).
Mediation is conducted by a neutral third party and coordinated by TxDMV at no cost to you. Ideally, mediation will be held by telephone conference, by written submission or in person at TxDMV facilities in Austin, Texas. If mediation is unsuccessful, you may pursue the claim in a court of law at your expense.
If you wish to file for mediation through TxDMV, please download our form and submit your request within 30 days after the mover has responded to your claim with an unsatisfactory offer or a denial of your claim, or 90 days after the date you submitted your original claim you have not received a response from the mover.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) Mark Sanchez spent a few days after his miserable performance wondering what was next.
The New York Jets quarterback had been benched, his coach tired of his mistakes, and there was no guarantee Rex Ryan would give him his job back anytime soon.
``I knew at some point before I died, I'd start at quarterback again,'' Sanchez said Wednesday. ``I'm glad it's this week.''
Ryan gathered his three quarterbacks Wednesday morning and told them he made up his mind: He's sticking with Sanchez.
For this week, at least.
Ryan weighed his options after pulling Sanchez for Greg McElroy last Sunday against Arizona, talking to many people within the organization before settling on his quarterback.
``I have to get this decision right,'' Ryan said, ``and I believe I have.''
So it will be Sanchez and not McElroy or Tim Tebow on Sunday when the Jets take on the Jaguars in Jacksonville.
``I'm pleased with coach's decision,'' Sanchez said. ``Now it's my job to go make him right.''
Sanchez was removed late in the third quarter against Arizona, and McElroy came in and led the Jets to the only touchdown of the game on his first NFL drive, helping New York to a 7-6 victory. Sanchez was 10 of 21 for 97 and three interceptions, while McElroy was 5 of 7 for 29 yards and the score, and appeared to spark the team.
Including, the Jets hope, Sanchez.
``When I looked at everything, the biggest thing I kept coming back to is, who gives us the best opportunity to win?'' Ryan said. ``When I kept coming back to that, I believe the correct answer was Mark Sanchez.''
It was perhaps the biggest call in Ryan's nearly four years as coach, considering the sensitivity of the situation and the possible ramifications. He acknowledged there were differing opinions among those he spoke to, but said he received no pressure from owner Woody Johnson and added that Johnson was ``absolutely'' OK with the decision.
``From the day Mr. Johnson hired me,'' Ryan said, ``he said it's 100 percent my decision who plays.''
Sanchez, whose confidence was shaken with Sunday's performance, gets a chance to bounce back from the first benching of his NFL career and to regain the trust of his teammates. He has struggled recently, with two touchdowns and five interceptions in his last four games.
``It was probably the worst and best experience of my life,'' Sanchez said. ``Hopefully, you learn from it and move on and never look back. It was definitely was the worst, but it could turn around and be one of the best things that's ever happened.''
He said he had never been benched, except for maybe on his fifth-grade basketball team.
``I think (Ryan) was, more or less, sending a message and it's well-received,'' Sanchez said. ``I know. I got it.''
He'll likely be on a short leash against Jacksonville - with Tebow the No. 2 if healthy, and McElroy also ready to go - but Ryan acknowledged it might not be a quick hook if he struggles. Ryan also referenced the team's color-coded system which determined how much risk Sanchez can take with each pass, saying the quarterback is now back in the ``red light'' area - meaning he must be extremely cautious.
``If he throws one interception, it doesn't mean he's going to get benched, necessarily,'' Ryan said.
It's still uncertain if Tebow will be active against his hometown Jaguars while he recovers from two broken ribs. Despite being medically cleared by team doctors to play, Ryan chose to keep him active but not play against New England on Thanksgiving night, and then made him inactive against Arizona.
If Ryan went with McElroy, a seventh-round pick in 2011 out of Alabama, it would have been a clear indication the franchise is moving on from Sanchez.
``I'm just disappointed because I let a lot of people down,'' Sanchez said. ``You let a lot of teammates down when you play like that. That never feels good. It just doesn't, not the way I prepare, not with the skill set I've been blessed to have.''
Money might have played a role in the decision, too, with Sanchez owed $8.25 million next year in guarantees. But Ryan adamantly denied that factored into things.
``Absolutely zero,'' he said without hesitating.
Still, the Jets are likely stuck with Sanchez and his contract, so they need to see if he can rebound after the lowest point of his career.
``I believe in Mark,'' Ryan said.
It didn't appear Tebow was much of a factor in Ryan's decision. Ryan said all three quarterbacks would be in the mix, but didn't speculate whether he would have pulled Sanchez in favor of Tebow last Sunday if he were active.
``I'm not too worried about it,'' Tebow said. ``Just trying to get better and trying to heal up.''
Tebow was expected to have a major role in the offense, but instead has been a spare part averaging about seven offensive snaps per game. He has been listed as the No. 2 quarterback on the depth chart, but if the Jets turned to McElroy, it would have meant the No. 3 guy leapfrogged Tebow to start for the Jets.
McElroy said he has had a ``normal'' week so far, taking his usual number of snaps along with practicing with the scout team.
``You're not guaranteed anything, not at all,'' McElroy said. ``You do your best to make the most of your opportunity and do your best to help the team.''
The fact the next two games are on the road should also help Sanchez. He was booed mercilessly by the MetLife Stadium crowd last Sunday, particularly after each interception, and chants for McElroy were heard throughout the game. McElroy was cheered as he warmed up late in the third quarter, and there was growing sentiment among some fans and media that he earned a start after lifting the team.
``This is my opinion,'' Ryan said, ``and I believe that sometimes you don't need to sit a guy for `X' amount of games.''
Now, Ryan has sent the message to Sanchez: perform or else. And Sanchez gets another shot to save his job this season - and his status as the Jets' franchise quarterback.
``This kind of thing affects people's lives and careers,'' Sanchez said. ``It's not just, `Oh, man. Bummer.' It's not like that. This is serious.''

Mark Twain: Copyright Maximalist Who Also Believed That Nearly All Human Utterances Were Plagiarism?
from the contradiction-or-satire? deptIn copyright circles, Mark Twain's speech to Congress in 1906 is well known as being the point at which he made clear his desire that copyright should be vastly expanded to make sure his kids kept earning money:
My copyrights produce to me annually a good deal more money than I have any use for. But those children of mine have use for that. I can take care of myself as long as I live. I know half a dozen trades, and I can invent a half a dozen more. I can get along. But I like the fifty years' extension, because that benefits my two daughter, who are not as competent to earn a living as I am, because I have carefully raised them as young ladies, who don't know anything and can't do anything. So I hope Congress will extend to them that charity which they have failed to get from me.He later argues for infinite copyright:
The English idea of copyright, as I found, was different, when I was before the committee of the House of Lords, composed of seven members I should say. The spokesman was a very able man, Lord Thring, a man of great reputation, but he didn't know anything about copyright and publishing. Naturally be didn't, because he hadn't been brought up to this trade. It is only people who have had intimate personal experience with the triumphs and griefs of an occupation who know how to treat it and get what is justly due.Some have argued, somewhat convincingly, that Twain as actually doing a somewhat brilliant satire, which not everyone understood. That would be awesome, if true, and there are some hints that it may very well be. However, it does appear that Twain himself was somewhat more conflicted on this particular issue. Siva Vaidhyanathan has an entire chapter (pdf) of his excellent book, Copyrights and Copyrwrongs, devoted to Twain's fluctuating views on copyright. However, he does suggest that later on in life -- from 1898 onward basically -- Twain appeared to be a strong maximalist.
Now that gentleman had no purpose or desire in the world to rob anybody or anything, but this was the proposition--fifty years extension--and he asked me what I thought the limit of copyright ought to be.
"Well," I said, "perpetuity." I thought it ought to last forever.
So it's interesting to then discover, via Joe Betsill, that during that same period, Twain argued that "the substance, the bulk, the actual and valuable material of all human utterances—is plagiarism" and that this wasn't a bad thing. The specifics are that Twain was writing a letter to Helen Keller, who a decade earlier (at 12-years of age) had just gone through a controversy in which she was accused of plagiarizing heavily from another book for her own work, The Frost King. Twain wrote to Keller, with whom he was friendly, after learning about the plagiarism accusations:
Oh, dear me, how unspeakably funny and owlishly idiotic and grotesque was that "plagiarism" farce! As if there was much of anything in any human utterance, oral or written, except plagiarism! The kernel, the soul—let us go further and say the substance, the bulk, the actual and valuable material of all human utterances—is plagiarism. For substantially all ideas are second-hand, consciously and unconsciously drawn from a million outside sources, and daily use by the garnerer with a pride and satisfaction born of the superstition that he originated them; whereas there is not a rag of originality about them anywhere except the little discoloration they get from his mental and moral calibre and his temperament, and which is revealed in characteristics of phrasing. When a great orator makes a great speech you are listening to ten centuries and ten thousand men—but we call it his speech, and really some exceedingly small portion of it is his. But not enough to signify. It is merely a Waterloo. It is Wellington's battle, in some degree, and we call it his; but there are others that contributed. It takes a thousand men to invent a telegraph, or a steam engine, or a phonograph, or a telephone or any other important thing—and the last man gets the credit and we forget the others. He added his little mite—that is all he did. These object lessons should teach us that ninety-nine parts of all things that proceed from the intellect are plagiarisms, pure and simple; and the lesson ought to make us modest. But nothing can do that.That was sent in 1903. Yet just three years later, he was arguing to Congress that ideas were property and should remain in the possession of those that created them forever:
Then why don't we unwittingly reproduce the phrasing of a story, as well as the story itself? It can hardly happen—to the extent of fifty words except in the case of a child; its memory-tablet is not lumbered with impressions, and the actual language can have graving-room there, and preserve the language a year or two, but a grown person's memory-tablet is a palimpsest, with hardly a bare space upon which to engrave a phrase. It must be a very rare thing that a whole page gets so sharply printed on a man's mind, by a single reading, that it will stay long enough to turn up some time or other to be mistaken by him for his own. No doubt we are constantly littering our literature with disconnected sentences borrowed from books at some unremembered time and now imagined to be our own, but that is about the most we can do. In 1866 I read Dr. Holmes's poems, in the Sandwich Islands. A year and a half later I stole his dedication, without knowing it, and used it to dedicate my "Innocents Abroad" with. Then years afterward I was talking with Dr. Holmes about it. He was not an ignorant ass—no, not he; he was not a collection of decayed human turnips, like your "Plagiarism Court;" and so when I said, "I know now where I stole it, but whom did you steal it from," he said, "I don't remember; I only know I stole it from somebody, because I have never originated anything altogether myself, nor met anyone who had."
To think of those solemn donkeys breaking a little child's heart with their ignorant rubbish about plagiarism! I couldn't sleep for blaspheming about it last night. Why, their whole lives, their whole histories, all their learning, all their thoughts, all their opinions were one solid rock of plagiarism, and they didn't know it and never suspected it. A gang of dull and hoary pirates piously setting themselves the task of disciplining and purifying a kitten that they think they've caught filching a chop! Oh, dam—
So if I could have convinced that gentleman that a book which does consist solely of ideas, from the base to the summit, then that would have been the best argument in the world that it is property, like any other property, and should not be put under the ban of any restriction, but that it should be the property of that man and his heirs forever and ever, just as a butcher shop would be, or--I don't care--anything, I don't care what it is. It all has the same basis. The law should recognize the right of perpetuity in this and every other kind of property.Now, plagiarism and copyright are not exact equivalents -- though there can (and often is) significant overlap. But it's difficult to see how the same person can reasonably argue both points. Perhaps that lends some credence to the claims that the Congressional hearing was, in fact, satire. Either way, I think I like the 1903 Mark Twain waxing poetically on how all ideas are plagiarism much more than the 1906 Mark Twain whining about how his children are too useless to do anything and need to keep making money from his books long after he's dead.

Reviews (5)
"Perfect chew"
My schnauzer loves these. They work great especially with my work schedule. He is at home for about 2-3 hours alone (with my pug though) and he will occasionally chew on something that he shouldnt. These help prevent that from happening.
"My hurdles loved them"
Will definitely be setting these up for monthly delivery.
"Bully Sticks"
I buy these for my Airedales and they are gone in less than an hour but are safe for their digestive system. A bully stick would last a smaller dog for days. Reasonably priced, good service, good product. I will continue to buy from Jeffers.
"bully sticks"
Like the curly bully sticks, these things stink! My dog had no interest in it. My neighbor's dogs wouldn't touch it either.
"Great Value"
These are your standard, stinky:), bully stick. I keep them outside and feed them outside because of the smell, but they are a great alternative to rawhide chews which are really hard on your dog's digestive system. They don't get soft and 'gummy' like rawhide. they last a long time depending on how long your dog chews on them. My dog can finish one in one chewing session if I let her keep it (and if she doesn't bury it:). This is a great value for your money; they cost $5 a piece for this size at my local feed store.

Unlike photofloods that only last up to 60 hours, these lamps are rated for over 8,000 hours of consistent performance and color.
Light has come a long way.
Many fluorescents are frowned upon due to their lack of output or the distance the light can travel. This 6-pack of lamps are full spectrum providing a greater throw of light for a longer distance.
Stay cool.
No need to worry about your subject being uncomfortable by the heat of your light, these lamps stay cool while generating very light heat.

Closest thing to window light.
Ever ask a photographer to name the best light? Nine times out of ten the response would be window light. These lamps give you the closest thing to natural window light available.
Beautiful eyes.
When using constant light such as these fluorescents, the eyes of your subject quickly adjust to light causing your pupil to be smaller and the color of the eye to be more visible. This results in your subject's eyes being seen by the camera for the true beauty they hold.
A common term what you see is what you get" describes constant lighting. These fluorescents offer a constant stream of natural daylight so you can see exactly where your light is falling. No second guessing with meters and slaves as you can quickly and easily control your lighting firsthand."

Despite an injury-filled season that sidelined her for the Olympics, a mud-soaked Annika Langvad overcame all odds – including a puncture in the last 6k and a crash on the final downhill stretch – to win her 2nd consecutive UCI Elite Women's Marathon World Championship title!
She fought to the finish aboard her SLM – painted in the colors of the Danish flag– crossed the line 44 seconds ahead of Norway's Gunn-Rita Dahle Flesjaa, and rightfully claimed her spot at the top of the podium for the 2nd year in a row.
"This race and victory is more than I ever dreamt about and thought possible. To be able to make such a comeback…Going through so much frustration, despair, and disappointment really got outweighed this Sunday," said Langvad.
She added, "I rode my Fuji 26″ hardtail, which I was supposed to ride for the Olympic Games. Grabbing a world champion title with it instead is awesome compensation."
Check out Annika's race report Here. We promise – it's well worth the read. It gave us chills. Congratulations to our Marathon World Champion!
