Q From Aileen Kelly, Australia: What is the origin of giving someone the sack or sacking them? None of my dictionaries are any help on this.
A The strangest thing about this colloquial expression is how ancient it is. Though recorded in English only from early in the nineteenth century, it's very much older in both French and Dutch.
In 1611, Randall Cotgrave recorded a French equivalent, On luy a donné son sac in his French-English dictionary and explained it as "he hath his passport given him (said of a servant whom his master hath put away)". Clearly, the expression was even older, though it has since died out in French in that form. A Dutch form den zak krijgen was recorded even earlier.
The usual explanation is that a workman almost always had his own tools, which were often very valuable. It's argued that presenting a workman with a sack to carry them away in, either figuratively or literally, was a well-understood signal of dismissal. It sounds too much like an explanation created in desperation for us to accept it uncritically, but I can find no other suggestion.

I'll list all the details. Do you think I can get away with it?
- I have been requesting permission for aprox 6 wks to take DS to the dentist. Ex has denied permission, and lied stating that DS was seen two months ago, but that ex would make an appt.
- I called the dentist. DS has not been seen for 11 months. And was not brought in for the follow up for that appt.
- After weeks of ex not making the appt my attorney notified him of my intent to do so. No response.
- yesterday the school informed me DS was complaining of tooth pain. I followed up with an email.
- I made the appointment today. However, the documentation I get tomorrow won't reflect that. It will only say that it is an emergency appointment and that I am agreeing to pay extra because of that.

Wait till tomorrow. The selling / shorting begins.
yeah that's my take. Merely a short covering rally. Big money got bored of going sideways and covered. big money almost always shorts... why go long in this market?
Wrong again. Yawn.
Given... they are covering. But why? Was it just boredom and an initial covering by a large position short? looks that way to me. Two days from now if they reshort, we will know for sure.
its a dead cat bounce... not a dog. Short covering rally. That's all.
short covering rally. Easy. Sideways bottom movement, shorts covering profits. one covering dominoes all the other covers. Reshort in two days. Just my guess.
I think you are talking about the short sellers. Self picture of stopgreenspan worst FED chair ever. Shorts getting more nervous before the late afternoon run up.
how's that workin out for ya, so far? LOLROFLMAO
tHAT's funny. It popped alright. Straight down 70% after bad research results. Dead cat bounce is all its got.
...told ja so, chiligirl.
600 thousand dollar Ballard order contract with more guaranteed to come from Ballard is not test units... idiot.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
yeah you did. If you don't know all the good news for this company, you shouldn't be investing in it. The idiots... rustynuts and chiligirl... are in denial all the way up. The announcements were not contracts. But the first of many has already come in from Ballard... so maybe rusty can get his nuts off on chiligirl... cause they aren't going to do it in the market.
What are you girls all clucking about?
Shut down? I just read the bankruptcy terms and the story on Reuters... they will continue mining gold as if nothing at all has happened. Nevada gold continues on. The debtors... bondholders and secured credit agency will be paid in full. Shareholders get the shaft. Thank God we got out weeks ago. With a profit... can you imagine.
OIL stocks are next. With oil under 50 bucks a barrel, look to the oil companies to start going belly up. Thank God. Oil has held this nation hostage for a century, and now they are going to die. Some overextended companies like EXXI will not survive the year. Not surprised about the gold mines. Always said gold will go back under a thousand dollars an ounce eventually. This bubble finally popped. I was never short Nevada. I did make some money trading it. Just a damn shame the lame o s at the top structured it so expensively. Everyone could have made money.
Possible news in March: Chinese contract. Seoul Korea contract. By the way, there are two contracts pending in China: one for explosion proof motors and one for mass transit busses. Also, congrats to the #$%$ the contract announced yesterday from Ballard. When it rains, it pours. All certified, tested, and ready to EV the planet.
ooohhh... amorous_nuts_forplates is wrong again. And I am right. Again. LOL
See... I was right again. You are welcome. Apologies accepted, chiligirl.
NOPE. Don't put any money on that loser. The execs kill the runs every time they start. And the volume and price action just ain't there.
don't bet on it. Volume and price action is no where. And the execs are idiots. They diluted twice in the last two weeks or so... one right after thei initial day one start of a real bonafide run. They killed the stock. So... PASS!

So here is my new page with your plugin looking the way I wanted it to...

Posted by ESPN.com's Pat Yasinskas
The Atlanta Falcons are the final stop for today's team-by-team mailbags.
Greg in CT writes: Those who have questioned the Falcons tepid off season are told to relax that Dimitroff has never been wrong before. How can one (admittedly very successful) draft exempt him from scrutiny? The Falcons were VERY lucky in 2008, especially on defense, and nothing has been done to address defensive deficiencies. I would think after 40 years, Falcon fans have earned the right to be pessimistic. And until Dimitroff has a clear PATTERN of success, it's premature to start comparing the Falcons to the Patriots.
Pat Yasinskas: That's a very valid point. As of the moment, the Falcons haven't done much with their defense. In fact, they've gotten rid of players like Keith Brooking, Grady Jackson, Lawyer Milloy, Domonique Foxworth and Michael Boley. But that was mostly by design. Foxworth was the only one of that bunch the Falcons truly wanted to keep, but he got a big offer from Baltimore that the Falcons couldn't compete with. Brooking, Jackson and Milloy all were near the end of their careers and the Falcons want to get younger at those positions. They haven't done much in free agency so far, but that's mainly because they don't have a lot of salary-cap room. But the wave of big money in free agency is over and I think you'll see the Falcons start making some moves. Thomas Dimitroff had an excellent draft last year, but he can't fill all the defensive holes through the draft. In essence, the Falcons lost five starters on defense and you're not going to get five starters in the draft. The Falcons need to sign two or three free agents who can start for them.
Atljbo in Atlanta writes: Will the Atlanta Falcons go after Leigh Bodden ? I think he would fit in Falcons scheme nicely.
Pat Yasinskas: Oops. In the short time between when I first answered this question and now, Leigh Bodden has signed with the Patriots. So scratch him off the list. I agree he would have been a nice fit in Atlanta, but I'm not sure the Falcons thought he was worth the money and I don't think they were very involved in this one. Von Hutchins, Chris Houston, Brent Grimes and Chevis Jackson are all young cornerbacks with upside. But I'd like to see the Falcons add one experienced cornerback to the mix and I think they'll continue to look for one at a reasonable price.
Pabst in Vegas writes: Falcons signed Mike Peterson, what are your thoughts on this? Back-up? Starter? Improvement over Brooking? Or is this just loyalty from Mike Smith? Thanks, I read the column everyday. Keep up the good work, and go Falcons!
Pat Yasinskas: I'm having a tough time getting excited about the Mike Peterson move. He's only a year younger than Keith Brooking and most of his experience is in the middle. The Falcons are set with Curtis Lofton in the middle, so it's a pretty fair assumption they're planning on using Peterson on the outside. And they're paying him starter money -- a two-year deal that could be worth up to $6.6 million. Mike Smith has history with Peterson and knows his abilities. I'm hoping Smith sees something that's not very apparent to me right now.

Had they been acted on, the bank's collapse might have been averted, the report concluded. The long-awaited findings of the Singapore investigators into the collapse of Barings also slammed the Bank of England for failing in its responsibilities when Barings massively exceeded its capital exposure limits to several Asian exchanges.
A five-page appendix to the Singapore report details the increasingly strained relations between the British and Singapore authorities as their respective investigations progressed, accusing the Bank of England of obstruction and ordering the seizure of interview transcripts. While the report also states that Singapore International Monetary Exchange Limited (Simex) was negligent in taking at face value Barings' assurances, it is notable for the absence of any mention of the role of the island state's own central bank, the Monetary Authority of Singapore.
Nick Leeson, the 28-year-old former chief derivatives trader at Barings in Singapore, is in jail in Germany pending a final decision on his extradition to Singapore. The German authorities have granted this, but are considering an appeal from Mr Leeson's lawyers.
The Singapore report, covering much of the same ground as the Bank of England's own report published in July, accused Mr Leeson forging documents, altering accounts and providing incorrect reports in a three-year concealment of unauthorised trading losses. When Barings collapsed, these had reached nearly pounds 1bn.
The 183-page report, appointed by Singapore's Finance Ministry, differed from its Bank of England equivalent in its sharp tone and its belief in a conspiracy at the top of Barings in the crucial months before the collapse on 26 February.
After Mr Leeson himself, the main blame is placed on Peter Norris, the former chief executive of Barings, and James Bax, the top Barings man in Singapore. The Singapore investigators allege that they tried to cover up, and later played down, a serious accounting discrepancy uncovered by Coopers & Lybrand in January 1995, that should have alerted management to problems.
"Both Mr Norris and Mr Bax have denied being involved in any plan either to underplay the significance of the discrepancy or to discourage independent investigations into the matter. However, we are unable to accept their denials," the report said.
The investigators accused Mr Norris, who was unavailable for comment yesterday, of denying that he had a lengthy meeting with Mr Leeson in Singapore in February even though a number of witnesses confirmed it. Referring to the pounds 50m discrepancy uncovered by the auditors, the investigators said: "Mr Norris also took steps to conceal this matter from other Baring Group directors and to discourage Coopers & Lybrand Singapore and C&L London from including the matter in their audit management letters."
Mr Bax, also alerted at an early stage to this accounting discrepancy, "played an active role to conceal the significance of the matter raised by the external auditors and to discourage independent investigations into the matter," the report said.
"In our view, Mr Bax's evidence, though given under oath, was false in material respects, and this also gives rise to an adverse inference being drawn against him." The Singapore authorities allege that this crucial information was not properly distributed or emphasised at the senior committee in London which met daily to assess risk throughout the Barings group.
"In retrospect, it seems probable that until February 1995, the Baring Group could have averted collapse by timely action. By the end of January 1995, although substantial losses had been incurred, these were only one- quarter the eventual losses," the report stated. Primarily there should have been a thorough and prompt investigation of Mr Leeson's funding requests from June 1994, as S$1.7bn (pounds 760m) was remitted to cover his losses. Steps should also have been taken to sort out why the Singapore futures operation was having to meet such large margin calls.
In October 1994 the internal auditors had highlighted the risk of allowing Mr Leeson to override internal controls by virtue of his control over the back and front offices of the local operation, yet no action was taken.
Nor did Barings' asset and liability committee in London do anything to ensure compliance with its instructions to Mr Leeson to reduce his position in Japanese stock market futures, Japanese government bonds and Euro-yen futures.
The report was prepared by the independent government-appointed inspectors Michael Lim and Nicky Tan, partners at the accountants Price Waterhouse. The Ministry of Finance accompanied its publication with the announcement that Barings Futures (Singapore), already declared insolvent, was to be wound up.
The Singaporean authorities plan to discuss the implications for further legal action today. In a statement yesterday the Ministry of Finance said the Commercial Affairs Department, the body responsible for dealing with commercial crime, has been asked to follow up the report to see if there are grounds for prosecutions.
The inspectors conclude that "Mr Norris clearly had an interest in concealing the much larger losses that the Baring Group had incurred via account 88888 [Mr Leeson's secret account which was used to make trades on futures market]". The report says "a plausible motive can readily be conjectured" for Mr Norris's actions. It argues that he took over Baring Securities Ltd when his predecessor had presided over losses totaling pounds 11m and that he would not want a larger failure to be revealed.
Barings' management has always maintained that it knew nothing of Mr Leeson's account 88888 but the report says that knowledge of the account was "hardly crucial. If they did not know of it at the outset, they could have learnt of it once they undertook any steps to investigate the position.
"They could have remained ignorant of the account up to the time of the collapse only if they had persistently shut themselves from the truth, Mr Norris's explanation after the collapse, namely that the senior management of the Baring Group believed that Mr Leeson's trading activities posed little (or no) risk to the Baring Group, but yielded very good returns, is implausible and in our view , demonstrates a degree of ignorance of market reality that totally lacks credibility".
The report pointedly says that Mr Leeson managed to operate his account 88888 for three years without Barings' senior management knowing about it but they managed to unearth the account within hours of his disappearance.
The report alleged that Barings' management structure was inadequateat every level, allowing Mr Leeson a free hand to cripple the company. James Bax, managing director of BFS and managing director of Barings Asia Pacific (BAF), and Simon Jones, director of BFS and chief operating officer of BAF "had a limited view of their responsibilities as directors of BFS". Mr Bax and Mr Jones remain in Singapore under travel restrictions.
Mr Bax and Mr Jones are accused of doing nothing to end Mr Leeson's control of the front and back offices. Coordination between his bosses was said to be shambolic. The report says "lines of accountability [were] porous and ill-defined".
The report accuses the Bank of England of ignoring its own controls on the exposure to debt deemed acceptable for banks. It says that even the inaccurate information supplied by Barings to the Bank in the quarter ending 31 December 1994 showed that Barings had breached the limit on maximum exposure to margins, relative to the capital funds available.

This stock is trading up 8.8% to $2.47 in recent trading. Today's Range: $2.40-$2.67 52-Week Range: $0.93-$3.06 Volume: 5.02 million Three-Month Average Volume: 1.28 million From a technical perspective, ACAD is ripping higher here with monster upside volume. This move is quickly pushing ACAD within range of triggering a major breakout trade. That trade will hit once ACAD manages to take out some near-term overhead resistance levels at $2.64 to $2.80 with high volume. At last check, ACAD has hit an intraday high of $2.67 and volume is well above its three-month average action of 1.28 million shares. Traders should now look for long-biased trades in ACAD as long as it's trending above its 50-day at $2.27, and then once it sustains a move or close above those breakout levels with volume that hits near or above 1.28 million shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then look for ACAD to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance levels at $3.06 to $3.30.

Nissan has updated its NV400 van range with a new low emission Euro 5 engine and some extra equipment.
A single 2.3-litre turbodiesel engine can now be found inside chassis, tipper and dropside conversions, with CO2 emissions dropping by 8g/km when compared to the older engine.
The E grade panel van also now gets some additional kit as standard and features deadlocks, power mirrors, front electric windows, FM audio system, USB sockets, Bluetooth connectivity and cargo floor load mounting hooks.
Security features have also been upgraded, with Thatcham approved Category 1 alarms being fitted to panel van, crew van, tipper and dropside conversions. Remote central locking is standard on SE grade panel van, crew van and crew bus SE configurations.
Barry Beeston, Nissan corporate sales director, said: "The improvements to the NV400 will further increase its appeal to businesses both large and small. Its comfort and reliability on long journeys is now matched by the efficiency of a high performance engine, which will deliver tangible cost savings.
"The extra security features on both the E and the SE models will also provide drivers and fleet operators with extra peace of mind that their vehicles and loads will be safe and secure when left unattended."

My dilemma is, do we drive to Flagstaff Friday night, get up early Saturday morning to drive the Grand Canyon and return to Flagstaff or should we drive to Sedona to spend the night before returning to Phoenix for our Sunday evening flight back home?
II really would hate to miss the drive between Flagstaff and Sedona during daylight!
Please help with this dilemma, first time to see the Grand Canyon and we are in our fifties.

Harley Quinn's Greatest Moments from "Batman: The Animated Series"
TV, Comic Books
Marvel would take Grant Morrison's awesome Marvel Boy character and make him "in continuity" and lame.
Surely the idea of Noh-Varr, zen fascist, world destroyer, genetically engineered Kree super soldier who wants nothing more than to bring Heaven to Earth by force, would make a perfect superhero! Perhaps he could even be… Captain Marvel?
It's a great idea! Who could possibly hate it?
I mean, it's not like the original mini was superb or The Authority done right or anything, right?
Who's with me? Eh? Eh?
I am!
What's Morrison ever done for The Comics anyway? Besides widening the horizons of the art with his unfettered cosmic imagination and ceaseless will to experiment. Besides that.
I mean, really, Bendis writing a Morrison character? Who else is picturing the scene in Zoolander where Stiller is trying to use the PC? No one, huh? Works nicely for me.
Boob window!
… I got nothing else.
Wasn't Marvel Boy the first "unofficial" Ultimate Universe title?
That looks good, some really awesome art. And it's written by Bendis? Where is it from? Looks like it could be good.
Off-handedly Quesada mentioned it MIGHT be the first Ultimate Universe title. Apparently it has since been changed.
As for the character itself… I'm just happy he's being used at all. After so many one-shots and minis in the 90s where characters were just COMPLETLY ignored and the only way to create a new character was by shoe-horning them into the Avengers or something, I'm glad that Marvel is using some of the ideas and characters (Sentry, Nextwave, Marvel Boy) instead of discarding them forever.
That art up top is from Zeb Wells and Stefano Casselli's Civil War: Young Avengers/Runaways special.
Bendis wrote Noh-var in New Avengers: Illuminati #4, which came out last week. Jimmy Cheung drew that one.
That picture is from last years Young Avengers/Runaways Civil War mini, written by Zeb Wells.
Bendis and Reed have reintroduced Marvel Boy into Illuminati #4 last week. Not really sure why this art is being used for the point being made though.
Wait..make him lame…I read the mini series…he came from the store that way.
You were clearly reading it wrong.
Whew, that's some ugly art!
"Grant Morrison's" Marvel Boy? Excuse me, but Marvel owns the damn character and may do whatever it wants with him!
Better characters than him have been ruined by the big publishers on the past…
Hunter (Pedro Bouça)
I was so much happier before I knew this.
And this is why Grant Morrison should never write comics in a shared universe. "I'm going to end my miniseries on a cliffhanger, but I don't actually intend to write a sequel–I'm giving this idea to the publisher, to let later writers do whatever they want with it."
"Ewwwww, that's not what GRANT MORRISON would have done with it! You've desecrated his brilliant ideas! They should have just cancelled all the X-Men comics once he'd finished with them, so that nobody could tarnish his creation! He should just be forced to write everything forever! Batman #666 is good! All-Star Superman isn't plagarism, it's deconstruction!"
…and so on. (Note to the sarcasm-impaired: This is a hyperbolic exaggeration of Grant Morrison fandom; it's obviously not meant to apply to any one specific person. Especially not you, man. Because you're cool. )
Well, Morrison had an idea for a Marvel Boy sequel. It was going to be get treat Kirby's mythology as a religion and be really cosmic. Jemas canceled it for pretty much being "too" cosmic.
All-Star Superman isn't plagarism, it's deconstruction!
Actually, it's neither. If anything, it's REconstruction.
…and they probably would've been better off if they DID cancel all the X-books after him, but, you know, many people disagree with me on that. Hah.
Let 'em muck with Marvel Boy. The original is still intact. Shame about that sequel.
Well, based on what was in the YA/R mini, it looked like they were positioning him to be an antagonist for the Young Avengers. Which could work.
I dunno what Bendis did with him in Illuminati, but it probably sucked.
I think I liked the Avengers/Runaways thing alright. But it's been a looooong time since I read Marvel Boy.
Why was whatever was lame lame?
Why does it matter? If it doesn't result in an entertaining story, you can just ignore it and it's like the character never came back. The original mini doesn't retroactively turn to crap because of it.
I faithfully collected the Marvel Boy stuff years ago. Wasn't he actually from a completely different dimension? It seems to me that the first book detailed the fact that his family's ship was careening through dozens of bizarre dimensions and they just happened to land in the marvel universe one. I also seem to remember that he had weaponry far beyond what the Kree were capable of at the time, and he was endowed with the powers of a cockroach.
I thought Illuminati #4 should have stuck with the guys whining about women and avoided the whole "reform Marvel Boy" thing.
Has the time-displaced Mar-vell been seen since Civil War? Maybe they could start a "Mar-vell" family book with the original, the boy, the daughter who is in Annihilation just now, and Monica Rambeau. Maybe they could get Tigra as the talking tiger character.
I dunno what Bendis did with him in Illuminati, but it probably sucked.
And you'd be amazingly wrong about that.
Bendis and Reed have reintroduced Marvel Boy into Illuminati #4 last week. Not really sure why this art is being used for the point being made though.
Because THIS book did indeed try to introduce Noh-Varr to the regular universe and make him lame. Bendis' book accepted that introduction and saved the character from lameness.
For now…
Actually, it's neither. If anything, it's REconstruction.
…and they probably would've been better off if they DID cancel all the X-books after him, but, you know, many people disagree with me on that. Hah.
Let 'em muck with Marvel Boy. The original is still intact. Shame about that sequel.
Man. The Kool-Aid is strong in this one. :p
I very much doubt Bendis intended it, but did anyone else get the impression Illuminati #4 was an analogy for Morrison's behaviour while at and departure from Marvel?
I don't have the issue to hand, having burnt it on a big fire, but I formed that impression very early on in the issue and it seems a rather pointless issue without such an interpretation.
Just me then? Thought so
Man. The Kool-Aid is strong in this one. :p
Meh. I'd still like G-Mozz comics even if they were universally reviled.
Remember, I also own a complete run of Sleepwalker and fondly remember Thunderstrike and Ravage 2099.

My 5 year old and I went to Wal-Mart with her "piggy bank" money to pick out a toy and she bought this and the sleeping beauty carriage set. The age is 3+ so you would assume it is at least durable. Not at all. I could get a better-made toy out of a McDonalds Happy Meal. ... not kidding. For $20, as small as these little sets are, I was expecting a lot better than this CHEAP plastic. I tried to talk my daughter into taking it back and getting a Barbie with a horse for roughly the same price but she wants to keep it despite the fact that she calls me to help her with the reins (falling off), the dresses (falling apart), or the doors not working properly....BECAUSE IT IS CHEAP~!!!!!!! I don't want to push it because this was supposed to be one of those "life lessons" and it was HER money, therefore HER decision. To make a long story short....
I bought this for my daughter, the cinderella dress snaps on, inevitably though, all it does is fall off, the straps from the horse to the carriage are awful, the door doesn't close easily and the cinderella doll cant sit in the carriage! The cinderella doesn't bend so you just have to throw her in and shut the door and see how she lands, very disappointed, returning immediately!
My daughter love any Princess toys but this is the worst buy of the year. The plastic is cheap and poorly done. I should have read the review :(
My daughter really wanted this and I had read some reviews about it saying it was poorly made and didn't function well. I wasn't going to buy it if it was only going to frustrate her, especially at full price. But when I was able to get it around Christmas time as part of a bundle deal with another item for way less than full price, I decided to get it anyway. It is pretty flimsy to say the least but she plays with it. The biggest problem with this carriage is the reins that attach the horse to the carriage. They just don't stay on at all and she is constsntly asking me to reattach them but they just come right off again. Very poor design and frustrating for a preschooler. For the price I paid for it, I really can't complain, but definitely not worth $20.
This is a gift for a friend and it is most impressive!
My daughter loved this toy when she opened it Christmas morning. The carriage and horse are both cute. I gave it 3 stars because the the pieces that attach the horse to the cart keep coming off. Without them, the horse cannot pull the cart. This is disappointing to me and frustrating to my daughter. That being said, I would recommend this toy, but only if you don't mind using the cart and horse separately.
the quality is good. my daughter will like it. I will recommend to friends.
broken on top of carriage very poorly made. return and will not buy again

Perhaps it's a good thing that Brenda Kitten didn't have to take a stress test this week. The Hereford head volleyball coach probably would've failed it.
"It's been such a tough two or three weeks for us," said Kitten, whose team after being swept by Randall on Monday night had to beat Pampa during a District 3-4A three-team playoff to avoid missing the postseason for the first time since 1987.
"Since Tuesday, we've been trying to recover and get our legs back underneath us."
Kitten and the third-seeded Lady Whitefaces (18-16) will start their 16th consecutive playoff run when they square off against San Angelo Lakeview (19-16) at 2 p.m. today at Seminole High School in Seminole. The winner goes on to face El Paso High (16-9) at a time, date and site to be determined.
Hereford's 3-4A cohort, the No. 2-seeded Lady Raiders (20-13), will face off against Andrews (15-16) at 3 p.m. today at Lubbock Monterey High School in Lubbock.
The winner will face El Paso Riverside (22-11) at 6 p.m. Tuesday at the Ector County Junior High in Odessa.
At stake for both teams will be a trip to the area round of the Region I-4A bracket, which is five wins away from a trek to the state tournament in San Marcos.
"We're going to have to run our quick offense and beat their block," said first-year Randall head coach Heather Sternenberg.
"Beating Hereford like we did, it showed the kids that we can play like (I) want them to. That was a big boost in the confidence department."
Last season, Randall was ousted in the first round of the postseason when Big Spring upset the Lady Raiders 15-8, 16-14. This year, Randall needs two victories to possibly set up a rematch with the Lady Steers. Big Spring plays El Paso Burgess next week.
Randall senior Ashlee Simpson said the difference between this year's squad and last year's is trust.
"We have a lot more confidence in each other as a team," said the Randall middle blocker, who leads the team in blocking with more than 100 total blocks this season.
"We play as a team and we're not selfish. Our passing has improved so much. When you have a passer, you can get the set and run a quick offense."
As for Hereford, Lady Whiteface junior outside hitter Erin Charest said this year's postseason is about turning doubters into believers.
"We just want to get as far as we can, and we want to prove to people that we're good enough," said Charest. "We're not taking it for granted. We know we have to leave it all on the court if we're going to make it to the next round."

Oosthuizen is 2-under par today on the Old Course and 17-under for the tournament. His lead went to eight shots from four on the 12th hole after he birdied as playing partner Paul Casey made triple-bogey.
Casey and Lee Westwood, both from England, are currently tied for second at 9-under. Casey is 2-over par for his round after 12 holes and Westwood is 2-under through 14 holes.

I just stumbled up on an unofficial Gay Cliques Census done a while back by a site called Noodles and Beef. The survey was created to shed some light on the demographics of the gay community, but also to discover what cliques are actually in use (eg, Bears, Cubs, etc…), the relationship between cliques and attraction to other cliques, how tops/bottoms range between groups, and what the geographic differences are between cliques.
Of course you don't have to take it seriously, but it's a fun exercise nonetheless. The survey told me that I was a Gym Bunny, who are apparently mostly attracted to other Gym Bunnys, Gym Rats, and Otters.
I can agree to a certain extent, but when I looked up the definition of a Gym Bunny in the Urban Dictionary, it read: "A gay man who spends an obsessive amount of time in the gym working on sculpting his body — not for health reasons — only to show it off in a club or on the beach." I don't really see myself as that guy. Especially when I read the example the Urban Dictionary uses: "Richard couldn't seem to find time in between work and his gym schedule for a relationship. He is such a gym bunny." LMFAO – that is definitely not me. That does describe my former roommate exactly though. Share your results below!
Me: "Uhm, I'm sorry?"
Guy: "Ya, you hang with the 'tight shirt, hot body' crew"
(Cough – he just said I was skinny, marry me! – cough)
Me: "Oh… uh, thank you?" (All the while, thinking to myself, "since when did being gay involve a social hierarchy?)
If you've seen Mean Girls (and hopefully all of you gays have, if not, gimme your gay card) then you're familiar with the scene where Janice draws out the social map of North Shore High. Let me refresh your memory, "You've got your JV Jocks, Varsity Jocks, Sexually Overactive Band Geeks, Cool Asians, the best people you'll ever meet and the worst. Beware of the plastics." So this is all-good in a movie plot, in Jr High, definitely HS and occasionally creeps up in the college (university for you Northerners) years. But where is the line drawn when we can drop those titles and just be who we are with the friends we have? As much as I love Regina George, I'm not sure I want to be considered a "plastic."
Now, us gays love to put titles on the types of guys in our community, anything from bears, to jocks and daddies to twinks. But these titles, at least for me, don't carry any sort of social status, so when someone told me that I was included in what they considered the "A-Gays," I was intrigued. When I asked him to explain what he meant, he just said that he had always noticed my group of friends, myself included, as the people who always dressed in the latest trends, always had worked-out bodies (who me? HA), were generally very attractive, were always laughing and looking like we have the times of our lives and so on and so on. On the one hand, I was flattered that someone had noticed things like that, but on the other hand, I was confused.

It's fun to have famous friends. Sex and the City's John Corbett was invited to play in the pro-am of the Mercedes Championships, the PGA Tour's season-opening tournament, held in Maui earlier this month. He brought along his longtime friend—and diehard golfer—actor Cort McCown on the all-expenses-paid trip. Corbett isn't much of a golfer, however, and when he saw what serious golfers some other stars like Clint Eastwood and Yankee ace Roger Clemens are, he let McCown play in his place. Corbett even cad-died for his friend on the long, hilly Kapalua course. So what did Corbett get out of the deal? McCown bought him a Hawaiian shirt.
Christine Taylor and Ben Stiller's baby isn't due for three months, but the countdown has begun. They're getting the tyke's room together, and one of Taylor's friends just threw her a very intimate tea shower because they couldn't wait until the real shower next month. "Ben is super excited," Taylor tells us, "but it's so overwhelming. He's already anticipating the lack of sleep." His diet may improve, however. "I've been cooking a lot more, coming up with new recipes," she says. "We're such homebodies now."
Add Jennifer Love Hewitt to the list of actors who want to be rock stars. The Party of Five alum, who just finished filming Tuxedo with Jackie Chan, tells us she recently took up the guitar, which she plans to play on her fourth album, due later this year. She has been practicing hard at her North Hollywood home, writing and rehearsing with rocker Meredith Brooks ("Bitch"), who's producing her CD.
Before Carrie Fisher sat down with her Star Wars director George Lucas for an interview to air Jan. 30 on her Oxygen Network talk show Conversations from the Edge, she gave him an "insult box," a gizmo that blabs out put-downs like the ones the two tossed around while cowriting TV's The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles. But Lucas laughed last. He surprised her with the Star Wars audition tape Fisher made with Harrison Ford when she was 19. She had never seen it.

Chile Peso Falls From Year High as Copper Drops on China Concern
Chile's peso retreated from its highest level in a year as copper, the country's biggest export, fell on concern that growth in China will slow.
The peso slid 0.1 percent to 474.85 per U.S. dollar after earlier rallying to 472.27, the strongest since Sept. 12, 2011. Copper fell from a four-month high, dropping 0.1 percent to $3.6925 a pound on the Comex in New York.
Morgan Stanley became today the fifth bank to estimate China will only grow 7.5 percent this year, the slowest in 22 years. The Asian nation is the biggest buyer of Chile's copper, which makes up more than half the Andean country's exports.
"After shooting to a 12-month high, there was some profit-taking around that level," said Katia Diaz, an economist at 4Cast Inc. in New York. "There was also a loss of momentum globally, and the peso followed."
The peso gained earlier as economists forecast a third round of bond buying from the Federal Reserve to support the world's largest economy.
Commodity-linked currencies such as the peso, the South African rand and the Russian ruble would benefit most from so-called quantitative easing in the U.S., according to Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc. RBS recommends buying the peso if the Fed starts a new round of stimulus. Almost two-thirds of economists in a Bloomberg survey expect the U.S. central bank to start buying bonds tomorrow.
'Very Bullish'
"People will be looking for safe assets with higher yields to invest the liquidity, and some of that liquidity will flow to Latin America," said Felipe Hernandez, an economist at RBS in Stamford, Connecticut. "We are still very bullish on the Chilean peso. It keeps attracting capital inflows from foreign direct investment."
Chile's five-year credit-default swaps fell to 80 basis points, the lowest in a year on an intraday basis. The two-year interest-rate swap rate rose six basis points to 4.94 percent. Two-year break-even inflation increased four basis points to 2.99 percent, in line with the central bank's 3 percent target.
Local investors, led by pension funds and excluding banks, in the Chilean peso forwards market cut their long peso position to a three-month low of $15.3 billion on Sept. 10 from $15.5 billion on Sept. 7, according to central bank data.
Banco Itau Chile sold today $47.5 million worth of 14-year inflation-linked bonds at a yield of 3.83 percent, according to data from the Santiago stock exchange.

Taking advice wrong for Brewers' Betancourt
Roenicke says telling shortstop how to bat isn't fruitful
Chicago - Brewers manager Ron Roenicke knows fans get upset watching shortstop Yuniesky Betancourt constantly swing at the first pitch and make an out.
But you can't tell him to stop doing it, according to Roenicke.
"It doesn't work," said Roenicke. "You ask him to take a pitch and then the next pitch he's going to swing at a lot.
"I think there's time when it's smart for him to go up and take a pitch. You have to have a feel for that stuff. It's hard to just dictate to a hitter what he has to do every time."
Suffice it to say that Betancourt has been a disappointment at the plate. He is hitting .232 with three home runs, 20 RBI, a .256 on-base percentage and .341 slugging percentage. He has walked eight times, three of them intentionally.
Betancourt will never have a good on-base percentage, but he produced some runs last year with Kansas City with 16 home runs and 78 RBI. But he has been awful in the clutch for the Brewers, batting .167 (9 for 54) with runners in scoring position, including 0 for 3 Monday in a 5-4, 10-inning loss to the Cubs.
Roenicke, who obviously did some research, said Betancourt was not told to lay off first pitches in Kansas City. Apparently, that was not the case when he played earlier in Seattle.
"When he was hitting last year, there wasn't a whole lot of thought going on as far as people making him do things," said Roenicke. "There was his last year in Seattle and it caused some problems. So, I don't want to do that.
"A player doesn't always figure out why you're asking him to do things. They think you're trying to dictate things to him. If I tell Yuni, 'Hey, you have to go up and take the first pitch every at-bat,' he's going to say, 'Why does he want me to do this? My batting average is good when it's a 0-0 count.' But that's a very misleading stat."
Roenicke said that does not mean Betancourt can't take instruction. Hitting coach Dale Sveum has been trying to get him to take more pitches the other way with hopes of staying on the ball longer.
"What Dale is doing with him lately, trying to get him to go the other way, I think that's huge for Yuni," said Roenicke. "That's what he needs to do.
"He'll do that for a while, then all of a sudden he starts pulling the ball again. When his mind-set is going the other way, he's going to start getting more hits."
Gamel staying put: Assistant general manager Gord Ash said first baseman Mat Gamel probably won't be brought up from Class AAA Nashville to use as an extra bat for interleague play. One problem is the Brewers play six games at home after going to Boston this weekend and don't need an extra bat then.
"Ron's preference is to use what we have, and alternate some guys there," said Ash. "We feel we have coverage from within."
Gamel has been swinging a hot bat for the Sounds. Entering Tuesday, he had a five-game hitting streak, during which he was batting .385 with four homers and 11 RBI. For the season, he was batting .310 with 13 homers and 45 RBI.
Taking the fifth: Though Casey McGehee remained mired in a 4-for-47 skid entering the game, Roenicke said he was not tempted to move him out of the No. 5 spot in the order, behind Prince Fielder.
"I think his at-bats are better," Roenicke said before McGehee went 2 for 5 against the Cubs. "I didn't think two days ago he swung the bat well. But as long as I see improvement and him getting better, I'd like to keep it that way."
Roenicke would like to keep Corey Hart in the No. 6 spot to provide some punch at the bottom of the lineup, especially with McGehee and Betancourt struggling and catcher Jonathan Lucroy slumping (1 for 19).
"We could use something more in the bottom part of the lineup," said Roenicke. "With Corey in the sixth spot, I think we're real capable of putting up nice numbers.
"'Luc' for a while was swinging the bat great. I actually had moved him up to sixth for a while. If we can get him back doing that, he's really going to help us."
Never satisfied: Though right-hander Zack Greinke has won six consecutive decisions since losing his first start with the Brewers, Roenicke said Greinke is far from satisfied.
"Zack says, 'I'm better than even this,'" said Roenicke. "And he's right. I've seen it. Zack knows when he's right he can do some pretty special things.
"He's not satisfied, which is a good thing. He's always striving to get better. (Shaun) Marcum's always striving to get better. I do (like hearing that)."

She hasn't hacked off a finger or made her microwave explode, but Brooklynite Rachel Coleman may very well be one of the "Worst Cooks in America."
That's the title of a new Food Network reality show airing on Sundays at 10 p.m. and Coleman is a contestant.
"I've never burned my kitchen down but I've burned a lot of stuff," the Bushwick resident told this paper.
"I called her food sloppy but tasty," said Chef Anne Burrell, who served as Coleman's mentor on the show. "She just was a hot mess."
Coleman's biggest problem was her disorganization. She often failed to read recipes before cooking, which left her searching for ingredients and scrambling to complete steps.
"Once I tried to make this fish thing with capers and olives but I didn't really follow any recipe. I just put things together. I didn't know how the ingredients really worked so I ended up with this dry fish with bones in it. I had a few friends over and they politely ate it but I was disappointed," said Coleman, who was just 23 years old when filming "Worst Cooks in America."
"She was very messy and got flustered easy," Burrell recalled of Coleman's time on the show. "She would regularly get into a pattern where she would get stuck. It would take her a little time to get started but throughout every challenge, she made her way through it pretty well."
Now back home in Bushwick, Coleman is visiting her favorite restaurants and grocery stores in search of great meals and fresh ingredients. In fact, she's eager to try new recipes, which she promises to read from start to finish.
"I've been cooking a lot lately," she said.
Rather than buy her groceries at Whole Foods in Manhattan, Coleman favors her neighborhood Food Bazaar supermarket, as well as local mom and pop shops.
"The cool thing about Bushwick is there's a lot of little speciality stores," she said. "My favorite place to buy groceries is the Food Bazaar. It's huge and everything is really cheap."
Next up for Coleman is tackling French food. She's been finding inspiration for dishes at Brooklyn's distinguished French eateries, such as Le Barricou at 533 Grand Street in Williamsburg.
"If I'm going to splurge, I like Le Barricou," she said.
"I would really like to make traditional French food. That would be fun. I just saw 'Julie and Julia' and it made me want to do traditional French food."
Alas, she has no plans to debone a duck.

rooney is clearly the weak link!
After watching the last few games i can honestly say that wayne rooney is clearly the weak link> his inablity to score regularly is clearly a sign of a bad striker...christiano ronaldo on the other hand is a much better player than rooney but the manu fans for some reason overlook his contribution..doesnt matter how hard he tries...i just want to know why?Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
What a load of bollocks! Rooney was instrumental in every meaningful move on Saturday and together with Ronaldo, Giggs and Saha, ably supported by Scholes and Carrick, they are playing the best attacking football in the EPL.

Some weak link. Rooney`s play is not just about goals, its his overall contribution to the team that matters.
And utd fans are fully aware of the contribution made by Ronaldo. Its the tv pundits and the paper press who have taken time to wake up to his potential.
I can see a time when both players are competeting against each other for World and European footballer of the year.
Kevgreengrass Kevgreengrass Nov 14, 2006 20:16 Flag
Disagree there mate. Rooney may not be scoring (except for a hat trick the other week) but he is still working bloody hard and setting things up, helping to grind out the results we need to stay top!
