In the spirit of Thanksgiving movie fun, it's time to revisit the best quotes from Planes, Trains & Automobiles, the 1987 comedy classic written and directed by John Hughes and starring Steve Martin (Neal Page) and John Candy (Del Griffith). (Read my full Planes, Trains & Automobiles review.)
Although there are plenty of hilarious dialogue-free moments in the film—John Candy imitating a drunk, Steve Martin unknowingly drying his face with underwear, Kevin Bacon racing Martin for a cab, etc.—here we celebrate the movie's funniest lines with a rundown of the top 10 Planes, Trains & Automobiles quotes, starting with Martin's withering rant after Candy clears one sinus too many:
1) Neal (Steve Martin) to Del: "I mean, didn't you notice on the plane when you started talking, eventually I started reading the vomit bag? Didn't that give you some sort of clue like, 'Hey, maybe this guy's not enjoying it'? You know, everything is not an anecdote. You have to discriminate. You choose things that are funny or mildly amusing or interesting. You're a miracle—your stories have none of that. They're not even amusing accidentally!
'Honey, I'd like you to meet Del Griffith, he's got some amusing anecdotes for you. Oh, and here's a gun so you can blow your brains out. You'll thank me for it.'
I could tolerate any insurance seminar. For days I could sit there and listen to them go on and on with a big smile on my face. They'd say, 'How can you stand it?' I'd say, 'Cause I've been with Del Griffith. I can take anything."
And you know what they'd say? They'd say, 'I know what you mean. The shower curtain ring guy. Whoa.'
It's like going on a date with a Chatty Cathy doll. I expect you to have a little string on your chest that I pull out and have to snap back. Except I wouldn't pull it out and snap it back—you would. 'Aah, aah, aah.'
And by the way, when you're telling these little stories? Here's a good idea—have a point. It makes it so much more interesting for the listener!"
2) Del (John Candy) to Neal: "Six bucks and my right nut says we're not landing in Chicago."
3) Car passengers on highway, to Del (Candy) and Neal (Martin): "You're going the wrong way! You're going to kill somebody!
Neal (Martin) to Del: "He says we're going the wrong way."
Del (Candy) to Neal: "Oh, he's drunk. How would he know where we're going?"
4) Del (Candy) to Neal: "There's no way on earth we're going to get out of here tonight. We'd have more luck playing pickup sticks with our butt-cheeks than we will getting a flight out of here before daybreak."
5) Neal (Martin) to Del: "Those aren't pillows!"
6) Del (Candy) to Neal: "Was that seat hot or what? I feel like a Whopper. Turn me over, I'm done on this side! I'm afraid to look at my ass—there'll be grill marks.
7) Del (Candy) to Neal: "I've never seen a man picked up by his testicles before."
8) Neal (Martin) to hotel clerk: "Please, have mercy. I've been wearing the same underwear since Tuesday."
9) Del (Candy) to Neal: "Larry Bird doesn't do as much ball-handling in one night as you do in an hour."
10) Car rental agent to Neal (Martin): "How may I help you?"
Neal (Martin): "You can start by wiping that f---ing dumba-- smile off your rosy f---ing cheeks. And you can give me a f---ing automobile: a f---ing Datsun, a f---ing Toyota, a f---ing Mustang, a f---ing Buick! Four f---ing wheels and a seat!"
Car rental agent: "I really don't care for the way you're speaking to me."
Neal (Martin): "Well I really don't care for the way your company left me in the middle of f---ing nowhere with f---ing keys to a f---ing car that isn't f---ing there. And I really didn't care to f---ing walk down a f---ing highway and across a f---ing runway to get back here to have you smile in my f---ing face. I want a f---ing car, right f---ing now.
Car rental agent: May I see your rental agreement?"
Neal (Martin): "I threw it away."
Car rental agent: "Oh, boy."
Neal (Martin): "Oh boy what?"
Car rental agent: "You're f---ed!"
Great stuff … and of course, the above 10 are merely the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the best, most memorable quotes from Planes, Trains & Automobiles. With that in mind, I encourage all to share their favorite quotes below … Now are you gonna help me or are you gonna stand there like a slab of meat with mittens?

Read an Excerpt
The other day, in looking over my papers, I found in my desk the following copy of a letter, sent by me a year since to an old school acquaintance:
I think when you and I were at Eton together, we were neither of us what could be called popular characters: you were a sarcastic, observant, shrewd, cold-blooded creature: my own portrait I will not attempt to draw, but I cannot recollect that it was a strikingly attractive one--can you? What animal magnetism drew thee and me together I know not; certainly I never experienced anything of the Pylades and Orestes sentiment for you, and I have reason to believe that you, on your part, were equally free from all romantic regard to me. Still, out of school hours we walked and talked continually together; when the theme of conversation was our companions or our masters, we understood each other, and when I recurred to some sentiment of affection, some vague love of an excellent or beautiful object, whether in animate or inanimate nature, your sardonic coldness did not move me. I felt myself superior to that check then as I do now.
"It is a long time since I wrote to you, and a still longer time since I saw you. Chancing to take up a newspaper of your county the other day, my eye fell upon your name. I began to think of old times; to run over the events which have transpired since we separated; and I sat down and commenced this letter. What you have been doing I know not; but you shall hear, if you choose to listen, how the world has wagged with me.
"First, after leaving Eton, I had an interview with my maternal uncles, Lord Tynedale and the Hon. John Seacombe. They asked me if Iwould enter the Church, and my uncle the nobleman offered me the living of Seacombe, which is in his gift, if I would; then my other uncle, Mr. Seacombe, hinted that when I became rector of Seacombe-cum-Scaife, I might perhaps be allowed to take, as mistress of my house and head of my parish, one of my six cousins, his daughters, all of whom I greatly dislike.
"I declined both the Church and matrimony. A good clergyman is a good thing, but I should have made a very bad one. As to the wife--oh, how like a nightmare is the thought of being bound for life to one of my cousins! No doubt they are accomplished and pretty; but not an accomplishment, not a charm of theirs, touches a chord in my bosom. To think of passing the winter evenings by the parlour fireside of Seacombe Rectory alone with one of them--for instance, the large and well-modelled statue, Sarah--no; I should be a bad husband, under such circumstances, as well as a bad clergyman.
"When I had declined my uncles' offers they asked me 'what I intended to do?' I said I should reflect. They reminded me that I had no fortune, and no expectation of any, and, after a considerable pause, Lord Tynedale demanded sternly, 'Whether I had thoughts of following my father's steps and engaging in trade?' Now I had no thought of the sort. I do not think that my turn of mind qualifies me to make a good tradesman; my taste, my ambition does not lie in that way; but such was the scorn expressed in Lord Tynedale's countenance as he pronounced the word trade--such the contemptuous sarcasm of his tone--that I was instantly decided. My father was but a name to me, yet that name I did not like to hear mentioned with a sneer to my very face. I answered then, with haste and warmth, 'I cannot do better than follow in my father's steps; yes, I will be a tradesman.' My uncles did not remonstrate; they and I parted with mutual disgust. In reviewing this transaction, I find that I was quite right to shake off the burden of Tynedale's patronage, but a fool to offer my shoulders instantly for the reception of another burden--one which might be more intolerable, and which certainly was yet untried.
"I wrote instantly to Edward--you know Edward--my only brother, ten years my senior, married to a rich mill-owner's daughter, and now possessor of the mill and business which was my father's before he failed. You are aware that my father--once reckoned a Cr?sus of wealth--became bankrupt a short time previous to his death, and that my mother lived in destitution for some six months after him, unhelped by her aristocratical brothers, whom she had mortally offended by her union with Crimsworth, the ----shire manufacturer. At the end of the six months she brought me into the world, and then herself left it, without, I should think, much regret, as it contained little hope or comfort for her.
"My father's relations took charge of Edward, as they did of me, till I was nine years old. At that period it chanced that the representation of an important borough in our county fell vacant; Mr. Seacombe stood for it. My uncle Crimsworth, an astute mercantile man, took the opportunity of writing a fierce letter to the candidate, stating that if he and Lord Tynedale did not consent to do something towards the support of their sister's orphan children, he would expose their relentless and malignant conduct towards that sister, and do his best to turn the circumstances against Mr. Seacombe's election. That gentleman and Lord T. knew well enough that the Crimsworths were an unscrupulous and determined race; they knew also that they had influence in the borough of X----; and, making a virtue of necessity, they consented to defray the expenses of my education. I was sent to Eton, where I remained ten years, during which space of time Edward and I never met. He, when he grew up, entered into trade, and pursued his calling with such diligence, ability, and success, that now, in his thirtieth year, he was fast making a fortune. Of this I was apprised by the occasional short letters I received from him, some three or four times a year; which said letters never concluded without some expression of determined enmity against the house of Seacombe, and some reproach to me for living, as he said, on the bounty of that house. At first, while still in boyhood, I could not understand why, as I had no parents, I should not be indebted to my uncles Tynedale and Seacombe for my education; but as I grew up, and heard by degrees of the persevering hostility, the hatred till death evinced by them against my father--of the sufferings of my mother--of all the wrongs, in short, of our house--then did I conceive shame of the dependence in which I lived, and form a resolution no more to take bread from hands which had refused to minister to the necessities of my dying mother. It was by these feelings I was influenced when I refused the Rectory of Seacombe, and the union with one of my patrician cousins.
"An irreparable breach thus being effected between my uncles and myself, I wrote to Edward; told him what had occurred, and informed him of my intention to follow his steps and be a tradesman. I asked, moreover, if he could give me employment. His answer expressed no approbation of my conduct, but he said I might come down to ----shire, if I liked, and he would 'see what could be done in the way of furnishing me with work.' I repressed all--even mental comment on his note--packed my trunk and carpet-bag, and started for the North directly.
"After two days' travelling (railroads were not then in existence) I arrived, one wet October afternoon, in the town of X----. I had always understood that Edward lived in this town, but on inquiry I found that it was only Mr. Crimsworth's mill and warehouse which were situated in the smoky atmosphere of Bigben Close; his residence lay four miles out, in the country.
"It was late in the evening when I alighted at the gates of the habitation designated to me as my brother's. As I advanced up the avenue, I could see through the shades of twilight, and the dark gloomy mists which deepened those shades, that the house was large, and the grounds surrounding it sufficiently spacious. I paused a moment on the lawn in front, and leaning my back against a tall tree which rose in the centre, I gazed with interest on the exterior of Crimsworth Hall.

Organized crime rings have exploited the U.S. visa application process in Ukraine, obtaining fraudulent credentials and documents from the U.S. Embassy in Kiev that put U.S. national security at risk, the State Department's chief watchdog warns.
The inspector general reported this month that the fraud rings "operate with impunity" inside the former Soviet republic and "have taken control of" an American program that allows foreigners to win visas via a random lottery.
U.S. Embassy officials in Kiev are making valiant efforts to try to deter fraudulent visas from being issued, but the outpost doesn't have all the resources it needs and inexplicably downgraded the embassy's chief of fraud detection to an entry-level position that requires little experience, the report said.
"The program requires urgent attention and corrective action from Washington," the inspector general declared.
The inspector general's warning, part of a larger report that gave good performance grades overall to the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine, cited detailed evidence on how crime rings steal data or pressure Ukrainians to gain access to their personal information to apply for bogus visas and eventually enter the U.S. under false identities.
The magnitude of the challenge facing American officials is evident in the fact that 50 percent to 80 percent of all applicants for the visas in Ukraine have given incorrect addresses for themselves, the report said.
State Department officials don't have exact numbers on how many people have been affected — and how many have found their way into the U.S. — but believe fraud rings are filing fake visa applications for as much as 80 percent of the population of western Ukraine.
The crime rings have specifically targeted the Diversity Visa program, which allows foreign citizens to enter into a lottery for a chance to apply for a U.S. immigration visa.
"Organized fraud rings masquerading as travel agencies have taken control of the Diversity Visa program in Ukraine. They buy, steal, or obtain from public sources personal information about Ukrainian citizens, especially those living in western Ukraine," the report said.
The report did not state how many fraudulent visas had been issued but made clear that some bogus recipients have made it all the way to the United States, and then been extorted for thousands of dollars in payments to stay.
"The fraud ring's involvement continues after the selectee enters the United States," the report says. "The fraud ring applies for the selectee's Social Security card and retains both the card and the Social Security number for misuse."
Several incidents show how Ukrainian criminals have abused the U.S. visa system. In 2011, for example, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported that five Ukrainian brothers had been arrested on human trafficking charges. The group demanded $10,000 to $50,000 from Ukrainian citizens to smuggle them into the U.S. Once in the country, prosecutors say, the Ukrainians were enslaved, beaten and sexually assaulted.
In June, two Massachusetts men were arrested and accused of trying to hack into financial accounts at dozens of banks and the U.S. military's payroll system, The Boston Globe reported. Federal investigators said they were following orders from a criminal in Kiev who was deported earlier from the U.S. after a similar cybercrime spree.
The fraud in the immigration program has become so pervasive that government investigators recommended that embassy staff move away from automated distribution of visa paperwork and consider personally notifying visa recipients to make sure the information goes to the right person and isn't stolen.
"This process would add work for the consular section but less than is now required to combat fraud," the report said.

Dimentional lumber is one of most common structural components on any building site, and for good reason. It's a renewable material that can offer cost advantages, it's easily available, it can be cut and sized on-site and used in nearly any kind of construction project. Lumber, including framing studs, roofing trusses, flooring systems and solid timbers, is found throughout residential, commercial, industrial, institutional and recreational construction projects worldwide.
Machine stress-rated lumber
Where great strength is critical, such as in truss rafters, laminating stock, I-beams and web joints, machine stress-rated and machine-evaluated lumber offers consistency of performance. Machine grading measures a desired characteristic – such as bending strength or density – and ensures that the graded lumber is more precisely selected than is possible with visual grading.
Freshly sawn lumber is often too high in moisture content for some uses. Kiln drying before the lumber is shipped reduces moisture content and increases the wood's structural integrity, appearance and workability, as well as reducing swelling and/or shrinkage. Virtually all lumber is kiln-dried to a moisture content of 19% or less.
Did you know?
Using wood in manufactured products requires far less energy than manufacturing with other materials. Most of the energy it takes comes from the wood's residual biomass (such as bark and sawdust).
Delivering consistent quality
As an organic, natural resource, lumber varies in appearance, characteristics and quality. To ensure lumber quality, Canadian mills employ standardized, industry-wide grading for similar woods.
The National Lumber Grades Authority (NLGA) is responsible for writing, interpreting and maintaining Canadian lumber grading rules and standards. The Canadian Lumber Standards Accreditation Board (CLSAB) monitors the quality of Canada's lumber grading and identification system.

It's a boy!!! Thoughts on circumcision?

thats gonna start a biiiiiig debate. You'll never find a concensus on this (or any) board on that subject. You need to do your research as pp said and make the decision for yourself.
Congrats on your boy! We left our son intact. Not my penis, not my decision! Definitely do some research and you will come up with your own conclusion.

It's easily researchable through google... I do not circumcise. For me, it is not a question of whether or not it is a christian practice, it is about how painful the "traditional" practice is to LO, and how medically unnecessary it is...
Many people believe otherwise, I chose not to circumcise my first, and I'll not circumcise this one, either.

Are Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry Back Together for Nahla?Erin Blakeley
Are Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry giving their relationship one last try, for Nahla's sake?
That's the word around town, at least according to the National Enquirer. The ex-couple are said to be giving it one last shot, attending couples counseling and planning to spend the summer together as a family in South Africa, where Berry will be shooting her latest film.
""They'll always be there for their little girl," a source told the Enquirer. "But Halle's begun to hope they may make it as a couple for the long run.
Well, if there's any truth to all this, good for them. If they are still in love and there is any chance that they can work through their issues and be together, then it's great that they are giving it a shot. The worst thing that happens is that they realize it won't work. But even if that's the case, perhaps the process of going through couples' counseling will lead to a more amicable split, and a a better outcome for Nahla. The next best thing to having your parents in a committed relationship is having them separated, but able to get along well.

NBER Working Paper No. 16222
This paper shows that the stock market downturns of 2000-2002 and 2007-09 have very different proximate causes. The early 2000's saw a large increase in the discount rates applied to corporate profits by rational investors, while the late 2000's saw a decrease in rational expectations of future profits. In each case the downturn reversed the trends of the previous boom. We reach these conclusions using a vector autoregressive model of aggregate stock returns and valuations, estimated imposing the cross-sectional restrictions of the intertemporal capital asset pricing model (ICAPM). As stock returns are very noisy, exploiting an economic model such as the ICAPM to extract information about future corporate profits from realized returns can potentially be very useful. We confirm that the ICAPM restrictions improve the out-of-sample forecasting performance of VAR models for stock returns, and that our conclusions are consistent with a simple graphical data analysis. Our findings imply that the 2007-09 downturn was particularly serious for rational long-term investors, who did not expect a strong recovery of stock prices as they did earlier in the decade.

The name pyrocatechin appears in older literature, however the accepted chemical name is now catechol. This name has the advantage of preventing it from being confused with pyrogallol.

Gallatin graduate students have appeared on Broadway, soloed with world-class symphony orchestras and performed with major dance companies.
Our graduate students are as diverse as the concentrations they develop. Gallatin's MA Program is comprised of recent college graduates, those interested in changing the focus of their careers, as well as professionals seeking to enhance their existing expertise. What they have in common is the motivation to embrace the challenge of interdisciplinary study and the independence and intellectual curiosity to shape and direct their course of study. Students can attend on a full-time or part-time basis. Full-time students usually complete the degree in 2 years. Part-time students are given 6 years to complete the degree.
Gallatin's graduate students work with faculty from across NYU and can take courses in NYU's various graduate and professional schools. Outside of the classroom, students can further their academic goals by developing individualized projects through independent study, tutorials, internships, and private lessons in the arts. At the end of their studies, students complete a final research, artistic, or project thesis.

101 things to do in London: the full list
See the complete rundown of 101 great things to do in the capital
For those who don't know where to start (and anyone up for a challenge), here's the full list. They are in no particular order – we couldn't possibly rank them – but if you are looking for extra guidance, flick through our category pages.
Did we miss out your favourite thing to do in the capital? Let us know on Facebook orTwitter.
Contemplate life and death at the British Museum
In galleries lined with the prized possessions of kings and the everyday trinkets of peasants, the British Museum reveals stories of life, death and glory. Get a picture of how Native American cultures lived centuries ago, seek out the sport of a lion hunt in carvings circa 645BC and explore rituals of death and remembrance reflected in the decorated casket of the ancient Egyptian mummy of Katebet.
See World War I's stories re-told at the Imperial War Museum
The IWM's First World War Galleries examine the politics and legacy of the 1914-1918 conflict, but also day-to-day life in the trenches. In photographs, artefacts like tins of food, and a collection of letters (many from fighters who never came back), the museum tells a powerful and moving story.
Compare Ming with modern at the V&A
The Victoria and Albert Museum's ceramics collection is the most extensive in the world. Grayson Perry might have revived an appreciation of the artform (see his handiwork here, alongside ornate pieces of the Medici age) but the collection shows how greatly valued ceramics have always been, from figurines crafted in Paris to soup tureens made in Chelsea.
Walk among dinosaurs at the Natural History Museum
For everyone from T-Rex-obsessed toddlers to budding paleontologists, the Natural History Museum remains the ultimate destination for matters pre-historic. A walk around the dinosaurs gallery, with its life-size models and skeletons, allows you to appreciate the sheer scale of these creatures, while the four animatronic displays reveal more about how they lived.
Learn through art at the Science Museum's Media Space
The Science Museum's stunning second floor gallery provides a chance to explore the imagination and creativity of invention as captured in photography and art. See a visiting exhibition or installation then kick back and discuss it over a coffee in the café.
See The Ambassadors at the National Gallery
Because it's free to visit, even if you have just ten minutes you can nip into the National Gallery and see one great masterpiece on your way to somewhere else. Try Holbein's 'The Ambassadors'. Laden with symbolism, the painting also features the 'anamorphic perspective' technique popular in Early Renaissance art; the seemingly smudged image in the foreground becomes a human skull when viewed sideways on.
See both Tates in a day
Can't decide between the Picassos at Tate Modern and the Constables at Tate Britain? Do both! The Tate Boat (decorated with Damien Hirst dots) runs along the Thames between Tate Britain by Vauxhall Bridge and the Tate Modern on Bankside every 40 minutes during gallery opening hours, seven days a week (except Dec 24-26).
Go stargazing at the Royal Observatory
The Peter Harrison Planetarium in Greenwich Park is the only place in London where you can take your eyes on a tour of the universe. In these days of HD and 3D TV, the Planetarium has raised its game, with state-of-the-art projection technology and spectacular films revealing the latest scientific discoveries. Shows include Space Safari, which is suitable for children under eight.
Drive a tube train at the London Transport Museum
Children can be seen and heard at this lively Covent Garden temple of travel. There are hands-on exhibits and visitors can clamber on board a tube train or experience what it's like to sit behind the wheel of a bus. Sadly you can't take one for a spin, but standing still certainly evokes the experience of London traffic.
Read Beatles lyrics at the British Library
The Magna Carta, works of Shakespeare and Dickens, copies of The Beano – they all have a home at the British Library. However, you can also see original manuscripts handwritten by some of the world's greatest musical talents. See early drafts by John Lennon of 'In My Life', 'She Said She Said' and 'Strawberry Fields Forever' written on a piece of Lufthansa-headed paper.
Hat & Tun
Venue says: Christmas is coming - have your office Christmas party at The Hat & Tun! Three delicious, festive courses for £32 per person.
We've come to expect a lot of the Martin brothers, Tom and Ed, whose family of gastropubs and restaurants includes the excellent Botanist in Sloane Square, The Gun in Docklands (a former Time Out gastropub of the year winner), and Victoria Park's family favourite, Empress of India. Their new venture, the Hat & Tun, is very appealing on paper: a revitalised Victorian boozer with a lunch-only menu of pure and simple Britannia – Scotch eggs, potted shrimp, doorstep sandwiches, fish and cottage pies. Brews include the superb Adnams Broadside and bitter, plus Weston's Old Rosie Cloudy Scrumpy Cider. It's enough to get you singing 'Knees Up Mother Brown'. So why did we leave thinking we should all go down the Strand and have a banana? It started well – friendly welcome, charming decor with fireplace and hunting trophies, a luscious half pint of sea-scented prawns. Pie and mash (there's a choice of steak and ale, beef and onion, or chicken and mushroom) was generous and well made. But there is no place for immature, fridge-cold brie, or a chutney which tasted similar to Branston's in a £7 ploughman's. The 'Londoner' sausage roll, although nicely seasoned, was a smallish, lightweight affair ridiculously charged at £4 – you can get better at the Bull & Last in NW5 for just £2.50. If the Martin brothers want to reflect the 'New Austerity' – or indeed the local market – they've got some tweaks to make here. It's Leather Lane food at Chancery Lane prices. But while the Hat & Tun seems at
Fab website, me and the family had no clue what we want to do on a day out, now we have booked a hotel there is so much to do!!!
For something different Geffrye Museum is a gem and very much overlooked. It showcases the history of the home, how homes and gardens reflect societies in time, behaviors, the various style and taste over the past 400 years from the 1600 on. It's free. Go thru it with an audio guide. Take your kids to their many fun weekend activities and summer program. After the visit, plunk down in one of the many Vietnamese restaurants nearby and enjoy a munch. Perfect weekend outing.
this was incredibly helpful. my cousin is coming to London and we were not sure what to do, however after looking at this we have gained many ideas. Thank you very much!!
WOW THIS IS A GOOD WEBSITE AS IT HAS HELPED ME TO EXPLORE LONDON MORE THANKS! :) :p

The time to focus on the end of a journey is now. You're ready to move onto something better and different. Tie up those loose ends and go for it.
It's on my mind these last days.... so wright.....

- Lift ticket is for a round trip ride, or you can hike down.

- Don't forget to bring your camera. You'll want photo memories of the most unique dining experience in Central Oregon!
- Base lodge is 6,300 feet, Pine Marten Lodge is 7,775 feet.
- The road no longer ends at Mt Bachelor in summer so don't forget to bear left after Dutchman Sno-Park.

The NFL's 5 Worst Calls Of 2011
December 09, 2011 5:25 pm
844 Views 0 Comments
The first thought on this article… why only 5? While there have been plenty of questionable calls all season long, especially those looked at through the eyes of the legions of homers for all 32 teams; after all, every team can lay claim to some bad calls going against them this year. The ones listed here either had critical impact on the outcome of the game they were in, or were so blatantly obvious and bad, you have to wonder sometimes if these are the best zebras the NFL's substantial coffers can afford.
#5 – "Backward Pass" that goes forward 3 yards – Cowboys @ Eagles (Week 8)
This one makes the list, even though it was ultimately overturned on an Andy Reid challenge… but it should never have come to that. In the 3rd quarter, from the Cowboys 5 yard line, Michael Vick sets up a screen to Desean Jackson; Jackson promptly drops it 3 yards down field, but the referee (Gene Steratore) rules it a backward pass. Let me reiterate; the ball traveled forward at least 3 yards, and the referee, who was right there, said it went backward! Again, this play was corrected in replay, but the initial call was so horrendous, it was inexplicable that a coach had to use a challenge in that situation to begin with.
#4 Jake Ballard Near TD – Packers @ Giants (Week 13)
In the first quarter of a dogfight of a game, the desperate Giants need a win against the defending champs to bolster their playoff hopes, and at first glance it looks like Jake Ballard's catch was clearly out of bounds. But hold the phone… when looking at the play from several angles in slow motion and in still shots, it actually looks like Ballard's right knee comes down by the slimmest of margins in bounds, which would mean this was a touchdown. The more angles you look at, the more it slows down, the more it looks like Ballard was indeed in bounds and scored. So surely the refs would see the same thing we all did right? Right? Oh… I guess not. This ends up being a huge no-score, because the Giants lose this game by less than a touchdown, and if this ends up reversed, the Giants might at least have forced overtime and had another chance to close out the Packers and secure their playoff position. Now, the Giants could very well not make it to the post season… but, this might just be karma for the #3 worst call in the league this year, which you'll read about momentarily.
#3 – Victor Cruz "gives himself up" – Giants @ Cardinals (Week 4)
This was another inexplicable one. Late in the 4th quarter, Victor Cruz makes a catch for a key first down to get the Giants into the red zone… he falls to the ground and as he gets up again, leaves the ball on the ground without being touched, and the Cardinals pick it up, thinking they got a treat. Too bad they actually got a trick, as the referees called him down by rule of "giving himself up", like a quarterback slide. What??? When you watch this in slow motion, Cruz fell down (not necessarily on purpose), probably thought he was touched, so he got up and was going back to the huddle… without the ball. How was this play any different from the Plaxico Burress infamous play where he caught the ball as a rookie, didn't get touched when he fell down, got up and spiked the ball thinking the play was over? The quick answer… it's not. Burress flubbed and fumbled, Cruz also flubbed and fumbled. This was important because the Giants scored the winning touchdown right after this play, and had they lost that game, we might be talking about the Giants being just as bad as the Eagles this year at meeting expectations. If the Giants do make the playoffs this year, like the Bengals not making it, they'll be able to point at this game as one of the big reasons why.
#2 Holding on Punt Return – Packers @ Bears (Week 3)
This play was most notable for the very inventive punt return the Bears used late in the 4th quarter against the Packers, as Devin Hester and the entire Bears coverage team moved to the left as if Hester was catching the punt, but really the punt sailed right to Johnny Knox who stood all alone over by the sideline, caught the punt and no one was the wiser. This would have been lauded as possibly the best play of the year, save for a holding call. From just about every angle, it looks like #21 might have engaged a Packers defender momentarily, but if there was a hold, it was extremely ticky-tack… by the time any of the cameras have #21 in the frame, he's already over 10 yards away from the defender. So how muc holding could there really have been? C'mon refs… best punt return ever, and you ruin it with an iffy hold. The only reason this wasn't #1 was the Bears were down by two scores with a minute to go, so likely this score did nothing except help them cover the spread. Had the game been closer, this would have been number one.
#1 – Jermaine Gresham's Near Touchdown – Bengals @ Ravens (Week 11)
Ok… I understand about the whole "catch in the endzone, need to keep possession all the way to the ground". I don't agree with the so called "Calvin Johnson rule", but it is what it is. This Gresham catch though, doesn't qualify to most people's eyes. Gresham juggles the ball after catching inside the 5 yard line, juggles the ball, regains possession BEFORE crossing the goal line, and then crosses the goal line with possession. The reason why this matters is that he established the catch outside the endzone, which means this catch shouldn't have been susceptible to the Calvin Johnson rule. This one was very important, because it would have brought the Bengals within 3 points in a game that had huge playoff implications for both squads. If the Bengals miss the post season, they can point at this game as a turning point for the worst that might very well be the difference between a playoff game and an early tee time in January.

The Faithful Spyby Alex Berenson
Staff Pick
I just got through reading The Faithful Spy by Alex Berenson. I started reading it on my lunch, forced myself to work for a few hours, and then hustled home to continue. Kids ate leftovers; dishes went undone; pleasant dinner conversation was cut short. Back to my thriller. I finished at about 9 o'clock and was bereft. No more John Wells, no more Alex Berenson for another year (if we're lucky). This could be the writer we've been waiting for — the successor to John Le Carré. The Faithful Spy is a great contemporary thriller that is both insightful and a page-turner.
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A New York Times reporter has drawn upon his experience covering the occupation in Iraq to write the most gripping and chillingly plausible thriller of the post-9/11 era. Alex Berenson's debut novel of suspense, The Faithful Spy, is a sharp, explosive story that takes readers inside the war on terror as fiction has never done before.
From secret American military bases where suspects are held and interrogated to basement laboratories where al Qaeda's scientists grow the deadliest of biological weapons, The Faithful Spy is a riveting and cautionary tale, as affecting in its personal stories as it is sophisticated in its political details. The first spy thriller to grapple squarely with the complexities and terrors of today's world, this is a uniquely exciting and unnerving novel by an author who truly knows his territory.
"After proving his loyalty in Afghanistan and elsewhere, CIA agent John Wells, the first Western intelligence officer to penetrate the upper levels of al-Qaeda, is assigned a mission on American soil by bin Laden's chief deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri. On his return to the U.S., Wells, now a devout Muslim (for real), finds his years spent in deep cover have left him conflicted. The agency itself seems wary of him — other than Jennifer Exley, the agency analyst who debriefs Wells (aka Jalal) on his return. The scrutiny intensifies when two bombs go off in L.A., killing 300. Berenson, a New York Times correspondent since 1999 who covered the occupation of Iraq, deftly employs the classic staples of spy fiction in his debut novel — self-serving bureaucrats, a beautiful co-worker love interest and an on-the-run hero suspected of being a traitor — then mixes in current terror tropes: car bombs, smuggled nuclear material, and bio-weapons. There's too much introspection from friend and foe alike, but mounting suspense, a believable scenario and a final twist add up to a compelling tale of frightening possibilities. It's not for the squeamish, though: the torture sequences and bombing descriptions are graphic and chillingly real." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
"Let's give New York Times reporter Alex Berenson credit for the year's most surefire thriller plot: CIA agent infiltrates al-Qaeda. It's such a sky-high concept that the film rights were auctioned off months ago, and Keanu Reeves may play undercover agent John Wells. If the idea is an inspired one in terms of commercial fiction, Berenson's execution of it is less so, but 'The Faithful Spy' offers... Washington Post Book Review (read the entire Washington Post review) a well-informed, often chilling look at how al-Qaeda might launch a major new attack in the United States — and how one intrepid undercover agent might do his darnedest to foil it. We first see Wells in Afghanistan in 2001, leading a band of al-Qaeda and Taliban fighters against the U.S.-backed Northern Alliance. Although an American, he has been with al-Qaeda long enough that his men trust him absolutely: 'After years fighting jihad in Afghanistan and Chechnya, he spoke perfect Arabic and Pashtun. His beard was long, his hands callused. He rode a horse almost as well as the natives. ... He prayed with them. He had proven that he belonged here, with these men.' Of course, whether Osama bin Laden and other al-Qaeda leaders trust him is another matter: 'He could not truly prove himself except by dying for them, and that he did not plan to do.' They trust him enough to send him to the States, where he is to assist master spy Omar Khadri, who is putting together a massive attack, but Wells isn't told the specifics of the plan. When he makes furtive contact with his bosses at the CIA, he finds he is not trusted there, either. They fear he has been 'doubled,' won over to jihad; threatened with arrest, he is soon on the run, determined to prevent the attack on his own. At the same time, through the eyes of his friend and colleague Jennifer Exley, we are taken inside the CIA's frustrated efforts to piece together what new act of terrorism is coming. Berenson is very good on all the things you would expect a skilled reporter to be good on. He gives a vivid picture of a U.S. Army raid on a terrorist meeting in Iraq, perhaps drawing on the three months he spent reporting for the Times there, and follows it with a persuasive portrait of how a captured Pakistani scientist is broken by torture at the hands of U.S. interrogators. He presents an all-too-convincing portrayal of how 'sleeper cells' in the United States might acquire both a plague bacterium and a 'dirty' nuclear device, and offers a detailed and bloody account of the explosion of two ANFO (ammonium nitrate-fuel oil) bombs that takes 336 lives in a major U.S. city — and is just a diversion from the larger attack that lies ahead. Berenson spices his narrative with caustic comments about those fighting on both sides of the war on terror. He says of bin Laden and his fanatical followers: 'They wanted to take the religion back to the seventh-century desert. They couldn't compete in the modern world, so they would pretend that it didn't exist. Or destroy it.' Of the CIA's difficulties in monitoring terrorists' e-mails, he notes: 'In the race between the spies and the spammers, the spammers were winning. Penis-enlargement pills had turned out to be Osama's best friend.' His scorn for much of the intelligence bureaucracy is seen in the fate of one talented CIA agent who predicted the Sept. 11 attacks — and now is not trusted because he's clearly not a team player. But Berenson stumbles when he shifts from terrorism to matters of the heart. We are told that Wells has been celibate during his 10 years with al-Qaeda. Even when he returns to the United States and is astonished by all the skin American women are now pleased to reveal, he aches for sex but vows not to pay for it or engage in one-night stands. His resolve is sorely tested by a woman he meets in a bar, but his purity is saved when her drunken ex-boyfriend bangs on the door. The real reason for Wells' stubborn chastity is his continued love for the aforementioned Jennifer Exley. They met in CIA training, when both were married to others. There seems to have been a chaste flirtation before he went underground. She agonizes over her passion for a man she has only seen 'for all of two weeks in the last ten years,' asking herself: 'Did he think of her the way she thought of him?' Well, yes, he does, but it's all pretty dippy, as is Wells' attempt to assuage his loneliness by buying two goldfish — and even that ends badly: 'Lucy had died, but Ricky was still alive, swimming listlessly.' Berenson even hokes up the cliffhanger climax of the novel — when Wells will or will not prevent the deaths of several hundred thousand Americans — by involving his beloved in it, against all logic. As long as Berenson sticks to the war on terror, 'The Faithful Spy' is a first-rate thriller. If it fails to rise to the highest level of the genre — that of Frederick Forsyth's 'The Day of the Jackal' or Thomas Harris' 'Black Sunday,' to name two other works by reporters who turned to fiction — it is because he has made his story a bit too slick and his hero a bit too good to be true. But his novel remains a timely reminder of the extremely precarious way we live now."

"The plotting is superlative, baffling readers and characters alike....
"A thriller worthy of le Carré....The payoff is tremendous....Well done throughout, and sure to be noticed." Kirkus Reviews
"Berenson, who has a superb eye for the telling detail, is excellent at describing Wells's relations with his new chums in Afghanistan as well as battle scenes." Jacob Heilbrunn, The New York Times Book Review
"The threats with which this thriller deals — fertilizer bombs, the plague, anthrax — are all too common, and a tepid romance that seems to have no real foundation adds little to the mix. Well written, but pretty standard stuff." Library Journal
"The Faithful Spy seeks to enlighten using the trappings of entertainment, combining thinking with thrills. And on that front, it succeeds quite well." The Baltimore Sun
"One cannot read this book without feeling that when the next terrorist attack comes, it will be in the form of the nature that Berenson so calculatingly describes. Put The Faithful Spy at the top of your must-read list." BookReporter.com
John Wells is the only CIA agent to ever penetrate al Qaeda. While living in the mountains of Pakistan, he became a Muslim, convinced of the decadence and shallowness of the United States.
In late 2009, CIA officers in Afghanistan's Kabul station allowed a Jordanian doctor into their closest confidence. In truth, the doctor was an al-Qaeda double agent—and when he blew himself up, the station's most senior officers died with him.
Years later, the station still hasn't recovered. Recruiting has dried up and the agency's best Afghani sources are being eliminated. At Langley, the CIA's chiefs begin to suspect the worst: somehow, the Taliban has infiltrated the station.
When they ask John Wells to investigate, he reluctantly agrees to return to the country where his career began. One thing is certain: Americans are dying, and an American is responsible. Wells is the only one who can unearth the truth—if it doesn't bury him first . . .

The Strange Death of Britain's Most Wanted Terrorist
The killing of Rashid Rauf raises questions about information sharing between the U.S. and Great Britain.
November 25, 2008 - 12:00 am
His death raises questions about information sharing and military alliances in the war on terror. Although Rauf is a British citizen, it appears England was not included, or even aware, of the American operation to kill him.
"A secret meeting on board an American aircraft carrier between the U.S. General David Petraeus and the head of the Pakistani military laid the foundation for the killing of Britain's most wanted terrorist," reports the Independent. The Guardian says, "Whitehall [was] kept in dark over strike." And the Times Online reports that "MPs seek answers as CIA kills British terror suspect Rashid Rauf."
With the international news of Rashid Rauf's death comes another question: just how big of a player was Rauf after all? American officials have yet to officially comment, but the Telegraph reports they've been told by anonymous U.S. sources that Rauf was linked to al-Qaeda's number two, Ayman al-Zawahiri. Rauf is also linked by marriage to Jaish-e-Mohammad, or The Army of Mohammed. Its leader, Maulana Masood Azhar (Rauf's brother-in-law), orchestrates terror attacks in Indian Kashmir. When Azhar was sprung from an Indian prison in 2000, alongside Daniel Pearl's future killer Omar Sheik, Osama Bin Laden threw him a party.
It is this growing and dangerous alliance that Bruce Riedel, a counterterrorism adviser to President-elect Barack Obama points out. "Rauf epitomizes the Pakistan-UK connection that Al-Qaeda is trying to exploit to attack Britain and the United States," Riedel said. "He also has ties to Kashmiri terror groups closely aligned with al-Qaeda."
In the tangled web of terrorist alliances and allegiances, one thing becomes clear: for the United States, certain terrorists are wanted dead — not alive.
Who the U.S. shares its information with apparently comes second to that end.
