His latest, Dirty Pretty Things, attempts to address a more ripped-from-the-headlines reality while returning to his interest in Great Britain's dispossessed. But his bid for topicality also gives his film a flat-footed, mainstream quality that lacks the warm embrace of human flaws and gifts Frears has offered in the past.
The concept of Dirty Pretty Things is promising. An underground group of impoverished London immigrants is selling their kidneys for cash and passports.
In a patently ludicrous setup, noble African immigrant Okwe (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a front desk clerk at the seedy Baltic Hotel, discovers the organs-for-sale scheme when he finds a human heart jamming one of the hotel toilets in the illin'est commode scene since Trainspotting.
It's unclear why -- in a black market where kidneys are sold -- a heart sets the drama in motion. Frears undoubtedly sees a sewage line clogged with a heart as far more cinematic than one jammed with a lowly kidney.
The morally upright Okwe was a doctor in Lagos but now works as a desk clerk and taxi driver. Though advised by a friend to forget he ever found the heart, Okwe is the kind of defiant, moral character who can't easily turn his back on the matter. Though Okwe's oft-stated morality often gets in the way of our identification with his character, Frears' casting of a black actor in the lead role is nothing short of subversive. Despite the film's many flaws, that casting decision shows that Frears' heart is in the right place, even if his storytelling judgment is far from sound.
Okwe's efforts to get to the bottom of the organ trade biz neatly dovetails with the decision of his love interest, Turkish immigrant Senay (Audrey Tautou), to trade her kidney for a passport to New York. Bowing to the forward momentum-at-any-cost absurdities of the Hollywood thriller, Okwe must race to Senay's bedside to hopefully prevent her imminent kidney harvesting.
Dirty Pretty Things unfortunately expends too much energy on its thriller machinations and fails to create the kind of oppressive atmosphere that would help intensify Frears' message of a world that offers its immigrants little sympathy.
Frears clearly has something profound to say about the much-heralded global economy that has rendered vast numbers of workers into invisible, exploitable drones. "We are the people you don't see," Okwe didactically chides a black market bigwig as he baldly delivers the film's message.
Tautou, who was so effervescently scrumptious in pixie mode in Amelie, fizzles in bedraggled immigrant mode. Her Turkish virgin, who clings desperately to her reputation while ravenous with desire to get to America, is a schizophrenic creation. She's pious and outlandish, moony for Okwe, but never quite convincing in her infatuation. Frears' secondary characters are even more simpleminded. The film's villains, such as organ-selling hotel manager "Sneaky" (Sergi Lopez), tend to advertise their malevolence via obesity, greasy hair and belly-grazing gold chains, which make the good guys a chorus of angels by comparison.
Dirty Pretty Things unfortunately uses its plot about the black market trade in human organs the same way Hollywood films use asteroids hurtling toward Earth to propel their pedestrian stories. Frears has a leftier concern with his immigrant characters, but that obvious empathy can't save a weak script and a story that betrays its disappointing allegiance to Hollywood formula.

Our Raving Fans Write
The Garden Gnome installs our lights every year. Before we found them my husband use to do it. That involved an entire weekend of grumbling and griping, and one year a trip to the emergency room. Now The Garden Gnome calls me and we pick a day to put them up and when it's all over the gnomes come back and take them down. We love that The Garden Gnome has become a part of our Christmas tradition.
--Karen Goldin, Lutz FL
The Garden Gnome has become a Christmas tradition for our family. There is nothing like watching the kids come home to a Christmas wonderland after their team has decorated our home with beautiful Christmas lights. If you are a busy family, the garden gnome can take the stress and danger out of putting up your Christmas lights in addition to coming back after the season is done and taking all the lights down and boxing them up for you as well. I would highly recommend the Garden Gnome for all of your Christmas lighting needs.
--Will Martinez
Garden Gnome, where have you been all my life? Your guys put up the lights at my house and when the season was over you came back and took them down.
Your guys packed them neatly and even put them in my attic for me. Thanks so much for making my holiday's a little easier. Can't wait to see you in November.
--Jan Marks (Lutz customer)

Hi I am currently developing a web app in ASP.net. I am creating a registration form where when the user enter a username they would like to use it performs a check on the database to see if the username already exists. I don't want this to be done in the text changed event because I don't want it to try and query the database each time a character is entered into the text box. When I want to do is when that text boxes loses focus, either by tapping to the next field or clicking on another field it then checks the database for the username. If the username already exits then a message like a tooltip is placed to the side of the field.
How can I perform this action when the text box loses focus.

Schaefer and Dubeof plan on getting Boxing on Network TV in 2012 in US
Mailbag: Network TV bouts are on the way, according to boxings top promoters
By Kevin Iole, Yahoo! Sports
11 hours, 48 minutes ago
Longtime boxing fans frequently lament the lack of a national television contract as one of the reasons for its struggles.
But dont be surprised if boxing winds up on CBS at some point in 2012. Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer wouldnt identify a network, but said recently, I am optimistic, very optimistic, when asked if there would be boxing on network TV in the near future.
Top Rank president Todd duBoef expressed similar optimism.
Now, though, the rumblings are coming from someone with the ability to influence that decision. Stephen Espinoza, the newly appointed vice president and general manager of Showtime Sports, said he thought boxing could come to network television this year.
Theres a decent chance of it, maybe even a good chance of it happening, in fact, Espinoza said. Boxing, for all of its challenges, still has a very loyal fan base, especially in the Latino and African-American demographics. Boxing has shown that, at its highest level, boxing can capture the mainstream sports, and non-sports, population.
Whenever you have an event like [Floyd] Mayweather-[Manny] Pacquiao, or [Oscar] De La Hoya-Mayweather, capture the imagination of all sports fans and, to a certain degree, non-sports fans, youve got a good recipe for success.
There is no fight lined up, theres no date, and theres not even a deal, but at least for the first time in a long while, there is reason to be optimistic about boxings return to free, over-the-air television.

This is what Boxing needs.
Huge step.
We only hope they make the right fights.
But just getting a slot would be major.

They've been planning for Mayweather to fight Pacquiao for over two years. One fight, with the highest grossing revenue in history. Expect network deal in 2016 after UFC is done growing, by then it probably won't be worth it for the promoters to help grow boxing anymore.

Good news...They should put guys like Angulo,Kirkland,Williams,Rocky Martinez on and avoid Rico Ramos type fighters. On a side note boxing imo will be much better off when Dubeof takes over Top Rank.

It's All About Graphic Tees, According To Madewell's New Designer
Perhaps your haven't quite noticed that Madewell is undergoing a makeover, but now's the time to start paying attention. With a new head of design at the helm, Madewell could be on the verge of transforming itself into an even bigger, more lust-worthy label. Somsack Sikhounmuong, the Thailand-born, Toronto-raised, new member of the Madewell team has already shed some light on what you can expect with the debut of the new fall '13 collection.
Aside from the denim revamp, Sikhounmuong is also shaking us out of our comfort zones with his roundup of some of the season's must-haves. And contrary to belief, he's telling us to ease up on the bold prints (come again?), and opt for graphic tees that will mix perfectly with even the most tailored items in your closet. Granted, we don't think we'll completely do away with those artful prints altogether, but if Madewell's newest fall line wins us over (we have high hopes), we'll gladly follow any of Sikhounmuong's sage advice going forward. Click over to see more can't-miss Madewell buys from the likely soon-to-be household head designer. (Fab Sugar)

Old technology has a way of lingering on, particularly at Chrysler headquarters in Auburn Hills. So while the Pentastar V6 has replaced the older engine architecture in just about every application, it still soldiered on in some export markets. But the introduction of a new 3.0-liter Pentastar V6, produced in Michigan and meant only for the Chinese market, has put the final nail in the old engine's coffin.

This is indeed a case of not knowing how much we wanted something until it arrived. We've been big fans of the Jeep Grand Cherokee ever since the new model arrived a couple of years ago, and while the update you see here might seem just a slight refresh, it's actually much more than that.

Just like the original Little King's Story for the Wii (brought over by XSEED in 2009), you'll take control of young King Corobo, but in a new storyline and, of course, vastly different visuals - ones that blend both 2D and 3D. You'll lead your own royal guard as you visit seven kingdoms, fighting dark lords to rescue imprisoned princesses. Also available will be online functionality.
New Little King's Story doesn't have an exact release date, but stay tuned for more news and hopefully E3 impressions. Until then, watch the English trailer below and check out our gallery for the newest screens and English logo!

Lori Wilde

Come join a meeting of the First Love Cookie Club!
"On Christmas Eve, if you sleep with kismet cookies under your pillow and dream of your own true love, he will be your destiny."
Carrie MacGregor doesn't believe this—not one bit. She might be a "paid up" member of the Cookie Club and the local Sweethearts Knitting Club, but she's not about to give in to the forced ho-ho-ho of the season. And why? Mark Leland. When he left town he broke Carrie's heart. Now, the local-guy-made good is back, hosting the reality show "Fact or Fantasy."
Fact: Mark broke her heart. Fantasy: her friends think they'll be getting back together. But could the magic of a Twilight, Texas Christmas make Carrie's secret dreams come true?

Hotel del Corso - Rome
The Hotel del Corso is a 3-star hotel in Rome conveniently located on one of the Italian capital's most renowned shopping thoroughfares, Via del Corso. Boutiques of world-famous Italian designers and global clothing brands vie for your attention as you wander through this shoppers' paradise, right on Hotel del Corso's doorstep. Take a 4-minute walk from the hotel to Via Marguta, known as Rome's Street of Artists, packed with stores brimming with antiques and the work of local artists as well as trendy restaurants. Just 6 minutes' stroll from both Piazza del Popolo and Piazza Spagna, this central Rome hotel is ideally situated for walking tours of the city. Piazza Spagna is where you'll find the 135 marble Spanish Steps, famous as a location in the cult 1953 movie, Roman Holiday. Popolo is one of the city's most impressive squares, with ornate fountains and an Egyptian obelisk; from here it's a short 8-minute amble to the Pincian Hill for some of the best views of the Eternal City.
Step through the doors of the Hotel del Corso to find a bright and tranquil lobby, with stone floors, an antique stone fountain, and a stylish glass ceiling creating a relaxed and welcoming ambience. The hotel's most impressive common space, however, is the beautiful rooftop garden, where you'll also find the hotel's friendly bar. Relax under the Roman sky, in the shade of an umbrella, as you sip on a freshly made cocktail or avail of the Del Corso's free WiFi. The friendly reception staff are on hand to assist with services such as bike rental, airport transfers, car parking, and advice on local amenities—if you're a fitness fanatic, ask about the special arrangement the hotel has with a nearby gym.
Guests of the Hotel del Corso praise the professional and helpful staff and the great city center location.

Good 3.6 /5 from 60 reviews
It was a surprisingly easy stay, staff very friendly, all shops and banks close and Old Town very easy to reach by a fabulous 5 min stroll. I would absolutely choose to stay there again. Very easy and basic place to stay, but probable one of the most convenient locations. Everything needed was available.
We stayed one night and the location is great. Near the Mandrake Port and old city as well as the Elli Beach. We were planning on bringing our small dog and this hotel is "pet friendly". As it turns out, we left our dog with others but we saw other pets in the lobby. The rooms are very simple and small but no complaints. However, the bathroom/shower setup is not good. No shower curtains so if you take a shower, the whole bathroom gets wet... But the location is great...
It has a great location being between the Old and New towns of Rhodes. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They printed off my boarding passes no problem. There is a breakfast provided which while it may not match the big hotels everything you need for a good start to the day is there. We stay there when travelling through Rhodes onto other places.
It was comfortable and within my budget
The hotel is so central,service is excellent.They cleaned the room everyday and change towels and sheets.Except the mosquitoes attack us at night.I definitely comeback again.Thanks
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

6 reviews | 3.7 out of 5
Great gimmick. The Dice iTPA-220 dock is a tube-powered pre-amp that warms the compressed digital files from your IPod and then amplifies through the solid state powered active speakers. Nutty. I've had my eye on this baby since it was first introduced, years ago, at $299.00. The Wal-Mart price made me an owner as soon as I spotted it. Fast shipping too. My IPod Touch works fine, set to Airplane Mode, by simply inserting the enclosed "Charging Adaptor" into the preamp and then clamping my IPod's dock tray within. Not exactly plug and play, but close enough to be idiot proof from this reviewer. All the needed gear is included, with bonus 1/8" jack- to-dual-RCAs for hooking up an optional external source. My IPod is even charging properly. No funky burning smell (read such complaint elsewhere) after two hours. It sounds pretty good at all volumes. Good bass response, clarity, and plenty of volume for home use. If you're an old soul that holds some reservation toward digital sound, this unit is strangely satisfying both in terms of audio quality and the bizarre paradox of the unit's futuristic retro look. It's worth the hundred bucks, that's for sure.
Pros: Amazing sound quality, no distortion at high volume levels. 3.5" audio input, composite video output. Works with iPod Touch. Lights are nice but not distracting. Cons: Doesn't charge iPod, no CD player/FM Radio. Speakers are long with a heatsink in the back of the left speaker, unable to hang them on the wall.
great product but walmarts price is unbeatable...this looks great sounds great and walmart is the place to buy it .checked out amazon,ebay,and dice,i saved more at walmart!!!!
This sounds great and automatically switches from aux in to ipod, when it is docked. A full incredible sound. The product is heavy and substantial, but uses cheap plastics as the finish. The volume knob is cheap and the tubes are crooked. Based on sound, I was very pleased, but the workmanship is poor. There was a screw loose in the package. I am returning today, but would have kept it if the finish was of higher quality.
I bought this system. Yes it has a warm inviting sound. However, this system is sold as a tube system .. but the tubes are used only as a preamp for the iPod. The power amps are built into the speakers. The tubes have blue LEDs behind them which is also kind of gimmicky. So for $100 you get pretty good sound, but no radio or other frills.
I consider this iPod dock/system a bargin compared to other "tube' iPod system. However, the speakers sound very bad. The sound breaks up. You could not hear a clear the midrange (i.e. vocal and a clean bass). I am returning mine.

Realistic expectations are important here. Reading the reviews, there seems to be a split between people who have never left suburbia and those who have actually spent time in the real world. Keep in mind that this is a great deal on a hotel room in Charlotte, with easy access to activities and business. Keeping that in mind, I would say this was a decent place to stay. It's got all the basics, and the people running the place are easy to get along with and willing to help. There are other places that make more sense if you have kids who need a pool or if you want on-premise food. But it works well if you're just passing through and need a place to stay. ...

I always thought Rocky was a bum who punched way too wide and got lucky against a past prime Apollo. Luckily for him he got trained by Apollo to some head and foot movement, jab and defense before his rematch with Clubber Lang, if he dint do that training camp he would got schooled again and forced to retire.

Well, you run the risk of getting hit when you're a Boxer, it comes with the territory.
Is it cool to stand there and get hit? Of course not. But saying that it isn't cool to get hit sorta makes you seem like you don't want to get in there with dudes who WILL hit you.

Nah its not cool if you're the fighter, Like Tyson said, how can he have his children look at him with dirty big gashes opened up over his eyes. Who wants their kids to see them with damage like Vargas got from the Mosley fight?

its cool for the ppl watching, not for the fighters. all fighters goal should be to achieve as much as they can in the sport meanwhile taking as little damage as possible, anything else is plain stupid.
every single one going on about how fighters shouldnt care about their health and be willing to take unnecessary shots never set foot in a ring themselfs, i guarante it.

For the fighters it isn't cool. For us as fans, or at least for me, the more punishment taken, the better.

On April 14, 1912, at 11:40 p.m., the Titanic struck an iceberg. It sank at 2:20 a.m. on April 15. Thus, this month (both according to the Jewish and secular calendars) marks the centennial of the disaster. Despite the passage of time, the tragedy still fascinates people and continues to be a source of lessons learned - both good and bad.

The miraculous splitting of the Sea of Reeds was one of the pinnacles of Israel's closeness to Hashem. It raises a question, though: Why? Hashem typically hides His presence somewhat, conducting the world in a discrete way and never revealing His presence so openly. As Rabbi Avigdor Miller, zt"l, explains, this spectacle on the Sea of Reeds was performed with two great purposes in mind.

Each morning at about 7:10 a.m. my mother, still in her housecoat and slippers, would wake me for school. One wintry Monday morning I opened my eyes to see her leaning over my bed. She was in hat and coat and her hands were cold from the weather outside.

Question: Why do we read Shir HaShirim on Pesach? Also, why do we generally read it on the Shabbat of Chol HaMoed as opposed to the first days of Pesach? Finally, why don't we recite a blessing over the reading of Shir HaShirim as we do for Megillat Esther? Menachem (Via E-Mail)

In order to fulfill one's obligation in the mitzvah of matzah, one must eat a k'zayis amount of matzah. This is because the Torah uses the wording of achilah (eating) when it commands the mitzvah of matzah.

For the past several weeks I have been focusing on hashgachah pratis – personal, individual and national guidance that comes from heaven. Sadly, in our secular, high pressured, very often decadent society, many voices assail us and we have difficulty hearing the still small voice of G-d leading and prodding us.

It was an ordinary day and Dovid (name changed) was preparing to catch the late afternoon EL AL flight to Eretz Yisrael. He had yahrzeit for his father and planned his trip so he'd arrive there just in time to join his brother at the kever. He parked his car in the area that facilitated a faster trip to JFK for his flight. Little did he know that he was being observed by a team of thieves who were "working" the Diamond District that day in order to rob the merchants of their goods.

Special Pesach edition kicks off with Yishai and Malkah sharing the story of their own inspiring journey into Pesach 5772. Then Yishai is joined by Shmuel Sackett, the International Director of Manhigut Yehudit, who tells the moving story of his personal discussions with Jonathan Pollard during visits to see him in prison. The third segment of this week's show features the true meaning of Pesach, presented by David Sacks, a television writer and producer for The Simpsons, 3rd Rock From the Sun, and more. Finally, Yehuda HaKohen talks about how love breeds courage and destroys fear, and gives an example with a masterful presentation of the history of the Lehi movement.

It was Moishele, and Itche, and me. We did everything together. We even made our own language, which only we understood. In shul they jokingly called us "the troika," after the three bishops whose authority extended across Poland.

At this time of the year, "Jewish eyes are smiling" as we look back to our Egyptian experience of 3300 years ago and the great salvation that HaShem had brought forth for us. But on this 10th of Nisan, corresponding to the general calendar of April 2, the eyes of all enlightened nations are on Egypt, but for different reasons. The Moslem Brotherhood political party in Egypt, that now controls the two houses of the Egyptian Parliament, is going to have their man as the next president of that country. This group is among the most radical Islamists in the world, and they have an unabashed, open, straightforward Islamic agenda. Not only will they turn Egyptian society back 300 years, their end game is to uproot the Jewish State.
Posted on: April 5th, 2012Judaism → Judaism 101
In the vernacular of our sages and in our prayers, Pesach is titled, "Z'man chayrusaynu- Time of our freedom." Although we did attain freedom at the time of our redemption from Egypt, titling the holiday as such doesn't seem to encapsulate the root of the holiday's greatness.

An act never dies. Each word you utter, each mitzvah you do, continues to ring in the world for all eternity. Rabbi Avigdor Miller, zt"l, teaches it was such an eternal act that was the undoing of Pharaoh and the making of Israel as a nation of holy people.
Posted on: April 5th, 2012Judaism → Parsha
After months and months of rebellion, Pharaoh finally admitted he was wrong. The Dos Zakainim explains that the plague of barad moved Pharaoh more than any other. And it was because of one factor: Moshe had warned him that the hail would kill anything living. Again and again, Moshe cautioned Pharaoh to take his livestock and his slaves inside. Because Pharaoh was repeatedly warned to save the living creatures, he was moved and recognized his error.

Never be late, ever.
I agree 110% - I will never be late again - ever.
When I bought my house in 04 I knew my credit was bad (1st mort @ 9%, & a 2nd mort @ 10% - how's THAT for BAD), and thought that if I paid on time my credit would probably go up , yeah right, but it would take 30+ years with all the baddies on there. But at least I paid that mortgage on time. I didn't start working on my credit scores till about 3 mo's ago but very glad I have the Excellent mortgage tradelines on the credit reports.
I now pay everything on time, even sooner. Love my online banking at BoA. It helps organize and be on time. I recently took out a $1000 personal loan at my credit union, I wanted to pay it off early and they said ok but wanted me to pay at least for 6 months. So I set up in BoA my auto pmts to pay twice a month for 3 months, then a lump sum for the payoff. So easy, just punch it in and it takes care of itself.
I used to be awful at bill paying, now I'm in my bank accounts almost every day.
Never be late, ever - Good advice that people need to be reminded of....Thanks Noah
Live Long and Prosper,

Comment TSA should be replaced by inspectors (Score 1) 125
The TSA should be replaced with a much much smaller group of enforcement inspectors and all they do is set security guidelines and test airport security. The actual security staff should be hired by the airports themselves, and all TSA does is test that they are meeting standards. (the standards that TSA themselves fail 95% of the time).

DJ Gallo's Varsity Tailgate, Week 7
It's Week 7 of the college football season, and the weather is getting cold. This week's edition of the Tailgate is already chilled and waiting.
Game of the Week
No. 3 Texas vs. No. 20 Oklahoma -- Noon ET on ABC
This is still a big game. But not as big as we might have expected at the beginning of the season. Oklahoma is out of the national title picture, and the epic rivalry is tainted by this disgusting friendship between Colt McCoy and Sam Bradford. They're even playing table tennis against each other on "College GameDay." Gross. Where's the hatred? This isn't a rivalry. This is is mutual respect. I'm going to be sick. Our only hope is that one of them has been faking the friendship the whole time to become close to the other, learn his weaknesses and then crush him on national television. My bet is on the one with the history of wearing disguises.
One More Game of the Week
No. 6 USC at No. 25 Notre Dame -- 3:30 p.m. ET on NBC
Charlie Weis on his players: "They understand the talent level of who they're going against, but I'd say this is probably the first time since I've been here where the players really believe they're going to win. They might be in the minority but they certainly believe that." This is the first time his players have believed they can beat USC? Weis has his strengths as a coach, but "Win one for the Gipper!"-style motivational speeches are apparently not one of them.
A possible sample of Weis' pregame speeches, 2005-08:
"We can beat USC! Believe it! Yeah, none of you are buying this, are you? Well, just go out there and try not to get hurt. There's always next year."
Cupcake of the Week
Central Florida
No. 9 Miami played Florida A&M last week, and now it takes on Central Florida. But the Knights aren't as bad as some teams I've had in this spot this season. I'm not going to lie to you. I'm not George O'Leary.
Cupcake Recipe of the Week
Fudge. The official dessert of George O'Leary.
Rivalry Game of the Week
Too many to list just one
Of course there's the Red River Rivalry. And USC-Notre Dame. And Cal-UCLA, Marshall-West Virginia, Central Michigan-Western Michigan, Virginia-Maryland, Virginia Tech-Georgia Tech and Michigan-Delaware State.
Whoops. That last one was supposed to be up with the cupcakes. Sorry. I doubt Rich Rodriguez will even count playing Delaware State as official football time for his players. Nor should he.
Heisman Candidate in the Crosshairs
Jimmy Clausen, QB, Notre Dame: Tim Tebow and Sam Bradford suffered injuries. Colt McCoy hasn't put up big numbers. Case Keenum's candidacy has no momentum. Even Tony Pike is hurt now. This could be Clausen's award to lose. Especially if many other deserving players continue to insist on playing a position other than quarterback.
Tim Tebow Fact of the Week
Tim Tebow was born Aug. 14, 1987. Also on Aug. 14, 1987, The New York Times reported that the White House would seek more military aid for the contras in Central America if peace talks continued to falter. Was Tebow bred by the Defense Department to be a one-man battalion, a cyborg so powerful and destructive that all nations would fear it, even as they test it on the field of play? Umm, yeah, I think so.
Mascot Fact of the Week
Tommy Trojan, the drum major of the USC marching band, has a goatee. And some people don't care for that, feeling facial hair does not fit the image of a Trojan soldier. In fact, the fate of the goatee is being put to a vote. Everyone just needs to relax. Facial hair on a drum major is nothing to panic about. (In fact, it's actually something to celebrate. Many drum majors struggle to grow facial hair.) If the USC Song Girls start growing goatees, then we have a major crisis.
Tailgate Tip of the Week
Bring rain gear: If my multicolored USA Today map is correct, much of the eastern half of the country is in for rain. (Assuming I'm not looking at the terror alert map, in which case, the people of the Southwest might want to find a bunker. Fast.) Anyway, if it might rain at your tailgate, bring a poncho or raincoat. (Do not bring an umbrella unless you want to get beaten with it, dork.) Because if you're going to be standing outside in the cold rain all day drinking, you'll want to stay as dry as possible so you don't get pneumonia. Pneumonia is soooooo 2007. All the cool kids get swine flu now.
Quote of the Week
"Everyone is really looking forward to this game. I just got done talking to the team. I said, 'Saturday night, fellas, you're going to be the lead story in the country one way or the other. You're gonna be. You're gonna be the lead story. So which lead story do you want to be?"
-- Charlie Weis, Notre Dame coach
I don't know, Charlie. You might have a strategic advantage when it comes to coaching, but I think I know the media better. Don't forget that Texas and Oklahoma also are playing. And the Yankees are playing in the American League Championship Series. And any number of other stories could break. In fact, here's my prediction for Saturday night lead stories, listed from most likely to least likely:
1. Angels-Yankees
2. USC beats Notre Dame
3. Oklahoma-Texas
4. Breaking news
5. Charlie Weis is taken on a ride through the Indiana skies by a weather balloon with 45 pounds of lift
6. Notre Dame beats USC
Stat of the Week
0-17: No. 19 Georgia Tech welcomes No. 4 Virginia Tech to Bobby Dodd Stadium on Saturday. Unfortunately, the Yellow Jackets have lost 17 in a row at home versus opponents in the top five, dating back to 1962. You'd think Georgia Tech would be able to find an engineer who could construct some sort of home-field advantage. (Nerd ZING!)
Charlie Weis Hot Seat Temperature
Stable: Much will be known about Charlie Weis' future after this game. Two of the three potential options are positive for him. Option 1: Get crushed again, possibly lose his job. Option 2: Win, keep his job! Best of all, Option 3: Lose narrowly, get a 10-year extension!
Lane Kiffin NCAA Violation of the Week
Blatant cheating: He's back! Kiffin clearly put someone else in Jonathan Crompton's uniform last week. Was it Peyton Manning? Probably. That guy will do anything for a few bucks.
Worst Game of the Week
Florida Atlantic at North Texas
These teams are a combined 1-8. But things are looking up. After this game, they'll be a combined 2-9! That's .500 football over their past two!
Name of the Week
T-Bob Hebert, LSU: LSU has two players with the last name Hebert. One is T-Bob. The other is Trent. Can you guess which one is the center and which is the kicker?
Stone Cold Lock of the Week
No. 2 Alabama plays host to No. 22 South Carolina this week. Both coaches run fine programs. But the winner will not receive any interest from the NFL.
