My Panda Shall Fly is the musical project of one Suren Seneviratne, a Sri Lanka-born British musician, artist and photographer. Behind a bushy beard and a signature mess of stringy black hair bunched atop his head, Seneviratne holds a taste of a purposefully vintage rock star within his mind. When it's not being reflected in deadpan, Wes Anderson-esque videos such as "Opening Brace," then certainly it can be shown in the 26-year-old's Essentials. Unlike some artists, My Panda Shall Fly doesn't seem limited by his title as a modern 'musician,' nor the ensuing associations. As such, he features floppy discs, '90s headphones, round sunglasses, cassette tapes, and a disposable camera – all allusions to the past. Enjoy a contemporary trip down memory lane in the above.

The mad hatter is coming to tea
He wants heart shaped buns and a camomile tea cosy
The food should be right and the music lousy
What else can you expect from gibbons with violins
The fat cats just sit in the sun and grin from ear to ear
They give not a care and show no fear
High up on the wall, a row of righteous tails sway
Purrs permeate the haze of a lazy day
Upside down hares sit at upside down tables
Cheeky monkeys are swinging from the gables
Snakes use drainpipes for their ladders
Venomous vipers and huge puffed up adders
Caterpillars still, but legs in motion
Hippos wallow in a mud bath lotion
Cheetah after chase, he stops and pants
Burn him at stake! Yell the fire ants
King of the jungle, roars with delight
Mrs black widow, shuns the daylight
A complicated web of fibs and deceit
Yet they all sing along to the jungle beat
And now for tea.

NEW YORK -- After more than seven hours of negotiations, the NHL and NHLPA ended a lengthy day back at the bargaining table with plans to meet again Wednesday, the NHLPA announced.
Neither side was available after the marathon session -- the first formal negotiations since Oct. 18 -- which stretched late into Election Night on Tuesday evening, although the league did issue the following statement from deputy commissioner Bill Daly:
"Collective bargaining negotiations between the National Hockey League and representatives of the National Hockey League's Players'
Association recessed tonight at 10:15 p.m. With meetings scheduled to resume Wednesday, the League will not characterize the substance or detail of the discussions until their conclusion."
The two sides met at an undisclosed location in Manhattan, a league request the union honored to keep the site private to avoid interference and media exposure.
They will resume the second straight day of talks at an undisclosed location in New York at 1 p.m. Wednesday, with the "Make Whole" provision believed to be the primary topic for discussion.
NHLPA executive director Donald Fehr met with reporters before the negotiations began, but declined to offer any prediction on the direction of talks.
"The players' view has always been to keep negotiating until we find a way to get an agreement and you sort of stay at it day by day, so it's very good to be getting back to the table," Fehr said. "And we hope that this time it produces more progress than we've seen in the past, and that we can find a way to make an agreement and to get the game back on the ice as soon as possible."
Fehr said he hoped the two sides continue to meet as long as it takes to broker a new deal. The lockout has now stretched into its seventh week -- Tuesday marked the 52nd day -- and has resulted in the cancellation of all regular-season games through Nov. 30, as well as the annual Winter Classic.
"We're hopeful that we'll start bargaining and we'll continue bargaining until we find a way to make a deal," Fehr said.
Prior to Tuesday's lengthy session, the last substantive discussion between the two sides was over the weekend, when NHLPA special counsel Steve Fehr and Daly met one on one at a secret, neutral site on Saturday.
No formal proposals were traded but the two groups' No. 2 men discussed a variety of issues in a marathon meeting that both Fehr and Daly characterized as productive.
An integral part of the discussion between the two parties was the league's willingness to bend on their "make-whole" provision. Although the league originally intended to honor existing player contracts by using a deferred payment program that ultimately would require players to shoulder the economic burden down the road, they are now willing to modify their stance, a source told ESPN.com's Pierre LeBrun this past weekend.
An agreement on that element of the deal would be significant, but would not necessarily be the end-all to forging a new collective bargaining agreement.
"It doesn't end the matter," said Fehr, who said he would reserve judgment until he is formally presented with the league's stance on the issue. "There are still other things that are important, but it certainly would matter in and of itself."
Although the location for Tuesday's meeting remained a secret, the bargaining session included a larger group. Commissioner Gary Bettman and Donald Fehr attended, as well as both sides' legal teams. Several players joined the meeting as well.
According to the union's website, those players planning on attending
are: Craig Adams, David Backes, Martin Biron, Chris Campoli, Sidney Crosby, Mathieu Darche, Ron Hainsey, Johan Hedberg, Milan Lucic, Manny Malhotra, Steve Montador, Shawn Thornton and Kevin Westgarth.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
The house is on approximately 2 acres of land and located on on a dead end residential street (very quiet.) It was lovingly built in 2004 by the 1st owner who was a sales person for Donghia, the fabric and furniture showroom in Manhattan. Her attention to detail and quality are one of the reasons I choose to purchase the home. There is a gunite pool next to the home positioned to gather as much sun as possible throughout the day. The front lawn has plenty of room for game playing as well as in the backyard. The backyard has a hammock for relaxing and reading the paper which can be delivered to the foot of the driveway. There is also a trampoline for when you want to work up a sweat or just get your willies out!
Inside the house there is a great room with a sofa and 2 chairs. The dining room is also part of this room. The dining room table has a leaf and can sit 16 people easily. The room is furnished with a comfortable mix of the old and new. Color abounds and nothing is overly precious. Just loved for its quirky quality. The beds are extra comfortable!!! Like climbing into a warm cloud. Each bedroom has its own bathroom. The 1st floor has 2 bedrooms with queen size beds and the 2nd floor has 2 twin beds with extra mattresses under the beds. This is where the kids sleep. Their bathroom has a shower, the guest bath has a large claw foot tub with a shower and the master bath has a rain shower in a generously sized stall. There is a large walk in closet in the master bedroom and regular closets and dressers in the other 2 bedrooms.
The location of the house is also a plus. The house abuts with a land preserve with trails for walking, riding and horses. It's equidistant between East Hampton Village and Amagansett Village, walking distance to Jackson Pollack's house and the Springs General Store.
The house is a great value for the price! You will see from the pictures that you can easily enjoy yourself and find lots of moments to relax and soak up spring,summer,fall and winter. If you have any questions please feel free to write or give us a call.
Keywords: This three bedroom, three bathroom house, located in Springs, is ten minutes from the beaches in Amagansett and East Hampton Village. The house has a pool, trampoline, air conditioning, Viking appliances and can comfortably accommodate two couples and up to four children.
We are a family of 4 from Brooklyn, NY. We have 2 sons ages 12 and 14. We have owned the house since 2006 and love, love, love spending time in this house!
Jeannie Messing-Walsh purchased this house in 2006
The house feels very secluded as well as close to beaches and amenities
We are part of a local farm where we have a share and are able to pick most of our fruit, veggies and flowers over the summer. The stars at night are so crisp and clear. We usually eat all our meals outside on the porch watching the trees sway. Our kids have plenty of room to play catch and kick a ball around, there are no concerns for their safety regarding traffic. They love to get all hot and sweaty on the trampoline, shot hoops in the driveway and then go for a swim in the pool. This house is very peaceful. We are just close enough to all that is entertaining in the Hamptons, yet we have our privacy.
Where do I begin? Everything was amazing!! The house was clean, the pool huge and it was clean...everything was just great. Spent most of the time by the pool because we had amazing weather. We spent our nights on the huge porch. The beach was a quick drive away. Super markets were near by. Some stuff was already provided which was awesome. The kitchen was fully stocked as well. My girls and I were more than satisfied with this clean, summery, and cozy home. Love and miss it!!! Will definitely rent again when I can.
My boyfriend and I rented the home along with another couple for the long Memorial Day Weekend. It was impeccably clean, well-stocked, and extremely comfortable. From the moment we drove up to the house, our expectations were exceeded. While the pictures on the listing do look great, they can't quite capture just how special this home is. From the interior design, to the beautiful landscape, there is something interesting to catch your eye at every turn. We took walks to the nearby bay beach and spent a bit of time in town; however, we spent most of our time enjoying all the home has to offer. We invited some nearby friends over for a barbecue one afternoon, and the kids and grown-ups alike had a blast in the pool, on the trampoline, and playing basketball and baseball in the large extremely private yard. The owner was a pleasure to deal with throughout the process. She was very professional and responsive to any questions we had. We have rented many vacation homes, and this was by far our best experience.
We rented sight unseen and were thrilled from the moment we drove up to this sweet home. Having rented homes all over the world, this was the first time our expectations were far exceeded. The house itself is utterly charming, cozy, clean and airy - a delight to spend time in. BUT then you have the dreamy porch, huge yard and pool; why be inside? We rode bikes to nearby bay beaches, drove the short trips to ocean beaches, walked to the Springs General store and visited the horses down the road each evening at sunset. It is very peaceful up in the Springs, and this house takes it to another level. My kids loved the pool, basketball hoop, trampoline. I appreciated the hip, colorful and comfortable decor. Excellent kitchen for those who love to cook!
My wife and I (and 3 children) have rented many different homes in the Hamptons, Springs and Montauk areas over the years and by far, this home is our favorite. It is big and airy, tastefully furnished, and has every modern convenience you may need. The property is surrounded by trees making it very private. The backyard is HUGE! Plenty of room for the kids to run around or play in the pool. There is also a giant trampoline, and on the side, a blacktop basketball court. We bought fresh fish at the docks in town and grilled most of our meals on the back deck rather than going out to eat simply because it was so pretty and peaceful. The area is surrounded by beautiful bay beaches witch are great for when the ocean is too rough for the kids. Getting to the shops, restaurants and beaches in East Hampton takes all of 5 min. by car. We also rode the bikes into town a lot. Simply put, you have the best of both worlds: A private home in a wooded area that feels like you're in the country, and the bays (walking distance) and ocean and within minuets - you're definitely at the beach! An added plus: The owners were truly a pleasure to deal with.

Hugh Jackman is one of Hollywood's hottest properties. He has become an international superstar thanks to his role as Wolverine in the X-Men series, and is loved by fans worldwide thanks to his extremely varied career as an actor and producer in film, television and musical theatre. Born in Sydney, Australia, in 1968, Jackman was offered a role in Neighbours aged 24 but turned it down in order to study at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts in Perth. He then went on to star in several muscial theatre productions in Australia before gaining international recognition on London's West End in a critically acclaimed production of Oklahoma! for which he received an Olivier Award nomination for Best Actor. In 2000, Jackman's Hollywood break came as he was cast as Wolverine, a role that catapulted him to stardom. He has since reprised the role in box office hits X-Men 2, X-Men: The Last Stand and X-Men Origins: Wolverine. He has continued to combine a successful theatre career with his work on the big screen, winning a Tony Award for his 2004 Broadway performance in The Boy From Oz. Rumoured to have been shortlisted for the role of James Bond, Jackman then went on to star in 2006 animated film Happy Feet and alongside fellow Australian star Nicole Kidman in Baz Luhrmann's epic film Australia. Named 'Sexiest Man Alive' by People magazine in 2008, Hugh Jackman's stock has continued to rise, and in 2009 he hosted the 81st Academy Awards.

Critical appraisal skills of family physicians in Ontario, Canada
- Marshall Godwin1Email author and

Our primary objective in this study was to measure family physicians' knowledge of the key elements that go into assessing the validity and interpreting the results in three different types of studies: i) a randomized controlled trial (RCT); ii) a study evaluating a diagnostic test; and iii) a systematic review (SR). Our secondary objectives were to determine the relationship between the above skills and age, gender, and type of practice.
We obtained a random sample of 1000 family physicians in Ontario from the College of Family Physicians of Canada database. These physicians were sent a questionnaire in the mail with follow-up mailings to non-responders at 3 and 8 weeks. The questionnaire was designed to measure knowledge and understanding of the basic concepts of critical appraisal skills. Based on the responses to the questions an Evidence Based Medicine (EBM) Knowledge Score was determined for each physician.
A response rate of 30.2% was achieved. The respondents were younger and more likely to be recent graduates than the population of Ontario Family Physicians as a whole. This was an expected outcome. Just over 50% of respondents were able to answer questions concerning the critical appraisal of methods and the interpretation of results of research articles satisfactorily. The average score on the 12-point EBM Knowledge Scale was 6.4. The younger physicians scored higher than the older physicians, and academic physicians scored higher than community-based physicians. Scores of male and female physicians did not differ.
We have shown that in a population of physicians which is younger than the general population of physicians, about 50% have reasonable knowledge regarding the critical appraisal of the methods and the interpretation of results of a research article. In general, younger physicians were more knowledgeable than were older physicians. EBM principles were felt to be important to the practice of medicine by 95% of respondents.
The concept we now refer to as evidence-based medicine (EBM) has its roots in the clinical epidemiology group at McMaster University. In the early and mid 1980s Haynes, Guyatt, Sackett, Oxman and others began writing about how to keep up-to-date by effectively reading and using the medical research literature [1–4]. In the 1990's this same group began publishing "User's guides" in the Journal of the American Medical Association about reading and critically appraising different types of published articles, including articles on therapy [5, 6], articles about diagnostic tests [7, 8], and systematic reviews [9]. There are now about 25 user's guides on most of the different types of health related publications. There is a website [10] available at the Centre for Health Evidence that contains the full text of all of these guides.
The concepts of clinical epidemiology, critical appraisal, and evidence-based medicine have permeated through academia over the past decade. These concepts are acknowledged and taught in medical schools and residency programs [11–13]. Still, some doubt its practical application; they worry that it is too much like cookbook medicine and that it denies the importance of experience and patient's wishes [14]. However, EBM is defined in terms of evidence, clinical expertise and patient's values. The accepted definition is "the conscientious, explicit and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients" or perhaps more clearly it is seen as the "integration of best research evidence with clinical expertise and patient's values" [15]. Best practice does not blindly apply research evidence outside the context of the patient or ignore the filter of clinical expertise.
For a practitioner to be able to interpret research evidence, a very specific body of knowledge and skills is needed. This knowledge, and these skills, are now taught in medical schools and residency programs, and courses are available in many countries for practicing physicians. A number of investigators looked at the effectiveness of courses on evidence based medicine [13, 16–19]. These studies generally assess the degree to which new knowledge has been learned and retained or the degree to which behavior has been changed. A systematic review that included six studies on medical students and four on residents was conducted by Norman and Shannon in 1998 [17] to assess the effectiveness of instruction in critical appraisal. They found that medical students showed consistent gains in knowledge from these courses but there was little change for residents. A Cochrane review looking at the effectiveness of teaching critical appraisal skills to health professionals [20] found only one study that met their inclusion criteria and it showed that critical appraisal teaching has positive effects on participants' knowledge. In that, study critical appraisal teaching resulted in a 25% improvement in critical appraisal knowledge compared to a 6% improvement in the control group.
Little has been done to assess the degree to which practicing physicians understand and use critical appraisal skills, or the degree to which they subscribe to the concepts of evidence based medicine. In this study, we are not assessing the effect of a program or course of training, we are assessing the degree to which knowledge, attitudes and skills relating to EBM have permeated into the community of family doctors in Ontario.
- i)
a randomized controlled trial (RCT); ii) a study evaluating a diagnostic test; and iii) a systematic review (SR). Our secondary objectives were to determine the relationship between the above skills and age, gender, and type of practice.
We obtained a random sample of 1000 family physicians in Ontario from the 6000 member computerized database of the College of Family Physicians of Canada. The database is capable of generating random samples. These 1000 physicians were sent a questionnaire in the mail with follow-up mailings to non-responders at 3 and 8 weeks. The questionnaire was designed to measure knowledge and understanding of the basic concepts of critical appraisal skills as it applies to the three types of articles listed above.
Measuring Knowledge of Critical Appraisal of Research Methods
To measure the respondents' understanding of the concepts related to critical appraisal we asked them to list two things they would look for when considering the quality of each of the three types of articles. The actual questions were :
Please list two things you would look for when considering the quality of a journal article reporting on the results of a randomized controlled trial
Please list two things you would look for when considering the quality of a journal article reporting on the results of a study evaluating a diagnostic test
Please list two things you would look for when considering the quality of a systematic review of a topic
We asked for just two things, instead of all things, they would look for in order to obtain a sense of what they felt was most important, and to prevent a wild guessing spree of possible items. It also simplified the questionnaire, which was important since we suspected response rate would be an issue.
The respondents were considered to have correctly answered the question regarding randomized controlled trial if the following concepts were mentioned: sample size/power; blinding; base line characteristics; measuring appropriate outcomes; description of randomization; population similar to my patients; intention to treat analysis.
Mention of the following concepts was considered a correct answer for a study evaluating a diagnostic test: reference to a gold standard; sensitivity/ specificity/positive predictive value/negative predictive value; likelihood ratios; cost/benefit; base line characteristics; prevalence/likelihood; false positive/false negative; availability of the test in my practice; applicability of the test to my patients.
Of the responses given for a systematic review, mention of the following concepts was considered a correct answer: type of articles reviewed; databases searched; specific criteria for search; completeness of the search; inclusion/exclusion criteria for articles; inclusion of published and unpublished data; homogeneity assessment; meta-analysis was done.
Measuring Knowledge of Interpretation of Research Results
Calculating a number-needed-to-treat(NNT) from the results of a RCT.
A study looked at the effect of a cholesterol lowering drug in patients with coronary heart disease. One outcome the investigators looked at was all-cause mortality. 256 (11.5%) of the 2223 people in the placebo group died during the 5-year follow-up and 182 (8.2%) of the 2221 people in the treatment grouped died during the 5 years. The absolute risk reduction (ARR) was therefore 3.3% or 0.033.
What would the number-needed-to-treat (NNT) be in this case?

The EBM Knowledge Score
We developed an overall knowledge score for each respondent. For each of the three research methods questions a respondent could get zero, one, or two correct answers. A point was given for each correct answer. Therefore, the highest possible score on the methods section would be six, which would be achieved by getting two correct answers for each of the three questions.
For each of the six research results questions, the possible scores were zero or one, for a possible total of six. The research methods score and the research results score were added for an overall maximum EBM Knowledge Score out of 12.
We also asked demographic questions and questions concerning EBM training and attitudes towards EBM. The study was reviewed and approved by the Queen's University Research Ethics Board.

Our main objective with this study was to measure family physicians' knowledge and skill level regarding critical appraisal. Our first discovery, as indicated by the relatively low (30.2%) response, was that physicians did not want to respond to our questionnaire. This might have been predicted since physicians do not like responding to questionnaires that measure knowledge, especially if it is about a topic they do not know a lot about. The poor response rate is probably itself a proxy measure of physicians' level of knowledge with the topic. Physicians who felt comfortable with the topic were more likely to respond. Our results then should be considered as the best-case scenario; the truth for the whole population of physicians in Ontario is probably that they are overall less knowledgeable about critical appraisal then our study would suggest. What we see in this study is "as good as it gets."
This interpretation is upheld by the comparison of our respondent population with the Janus data. Our respondents were younger and more likely to be female, which fits with later years of graduation. While our population covered the full age range of physicians, it was overall a younger group then currently makes up the physician population in Ontario. For these young physicians, evidence based medicine and critical appraisal were part of the curriculum throughout their training. More of them probably felt comfortable responding to the questionnaire. Despite this, the results are not impressive. While they almost unanimously agree that EBM is important, the overall EBM Knowledge Score was just 6.4 out of 12 for the whole group and even the recent graduates (age 25–35 years old group) achieved only 8 out of 12 on the overall EBM Knowledge Scale. They probably would have considered a mark of 67% a disaster during their training!
The academic family physicians did significantly better than their community-based colleagues, but the highest score was 8.5.
One could put a positive spin on this data. Table 4 suggests that approximately 50% of physicians have a reasonable grasp of critical appraisal concepts and know how to interpret research results; half of them can calculate an NNT and sensitivity and specificity and know what they mean. If we had done this survey 10–15 years ago, it is likely the results would have been much different. The EBM and critical appraisal teaching of the past decade has undoubtedly had an effect.
There are several limitations to this study. The low response rate is the main limitation. However, we are able to know how the low response rate makes the demographics of our study population different from the population as a whole by comparing it to the Janus data. This allows us to consider these differences when interpreting the results. Our data over-estimates the critical appraisal knowledge level of physicians in Ontario. The other limitation with this type of survey is that the physicians might have asked a colleague or sought information from a book or online to answer the questions. While this may have resulted in their learning more about critical appraisal because of this survey, it would skew the results to appear better than they really are. A final limitation is that the EBM Knowledge Score we devised from the questions in the survey has not been tested for reliability or validity. The degree to which a score on this scale is the same if repeated, and the degree to which a score on this scale truly measures one's knowledge of EBM or critical appraisal is not clear.
We have shown that in a population of Ontario physicians that is younger than the general population of physicians, about 50% have reasonable knowledge regarding the critical appraisal of the methods and the interpretation of results of a research article. In general, younger physicians were more knowledgeable than older physicians were. EBM principles were felt to be important to the practice of medicine by 95% of respondents.

United Nations and International Law by Christopher C. Joyner
Book DescriptionThis volume provides students and scholars with a text that examines, explains, and appraises contributions made by the United Nations to contemporary international law and the law-creating process. The authors consider how UN institutions have made the law, what law has been made, and the extent to which that law has been meaningfully accepted by and evidenced in contemporary state practice. The study first deals with processes and measures that cut across law-making, covering practical as well as conceptual aspects. Then the substantive law is addressed in terms of the different fields of activity that the United Nations has made subject to legal rules and processes. Some chapters cover prominent areas, such as human rights, use of force, and economic relations; others deal with topics which have not previously been examined with sufficient care, such as labor, the environment, refugees, and women. The book's final section deals with the internal law of the UN system itself - the international civil services and financial contributions.

The scope of this chapter is to prosecute the exhortation given to Israel in the close of the foregoing chapter to prepare to meet their God; the prophet here tells them, I. What preparation they must make; they must "seek the Lord," and not seek any more to idols (Amos 5:4-8); they must seek good, and love it, Amos 5:14, 15. II. Why they must make this preparation to meet their God, 1. Because of the present deplorable condition they were in, Amos 5:1-3. 2. Because it was by sin that they were brought into such a condition, Amos 5:7, 10-12. 3. Because it would be their happiness to seek God, and he was ready to be found of them, Amos 5:8, 9, 14. 4. Because he would proceed, in his wrath, to their utter ruin, if they did not seek him, Amos 5:5, 6, 13, 16, 17. 5. Because all their confidences would fail them if they did not seek unto God, and make him their friend. (1.) Their profane contempt of God's judgments, and setting them at defiance, would not secure them, Amos 5:18-20. (2.) Their external services in religion, and the shows of devotion, would not avail to turn away the wrath of God, Amos 5:21-24. (3.) Their having been long in possession of church-privileges, and in a course of holy duties, would not be their protection, while all along they had kept up their idolatrous customs, Amos 5:25-27. They have therefore no way left them to save themselves, but by repentance and reformation.

Recent Joshua Tree Reviews
Exactly what we needed for a relaxing and fun weekend with the guys
We were looking for a secluded place to get the guys together for a fun weekend and this place fit the bill. The weather was beautiful in late February. There was a cool desert iguana on the rocks by the grill. The good points are a big, well stocked kitchen with a big fridge, plenty of dining and TV/movie watching seating for a group of up to 12 people, lots of extra floor space and closets for extra people to sleep in, great views, secluded area, hot tub, and cool rocks to hang out on for sunset. The bad points included a leaking sink in the hall bath (Danny says he's going to get it fixed ASAP), some stains on the sofas and rugs, a bunch of broken vertical blinds stored in some closets, and being within the view of the security cameras in all of the outside areas. I'll also have to admit, throughout our stay, I was concerned about the stern warnings in the rental contract about the many ways to lose your $750 security deposit. Rules include a maximum of 8 cars parked in the driveway, maximum of 12 guests ($29 per night for each additional), in after 4 pm, out by 11 am, take your trash with you, and no fire pits. Scanning the reviews, I can't see anyone complaining about their deposit being kept unfairly, and Danny refunded my deposit relatively quickly (2 weeks) after our stay. He also refunded the extra money we paid for additional guests beyond 12 when a couple of friends had to cancel. Things that could be improved about the place include better instructions for the operation of the surround sound system (we could only get the rear speakers working), it would be great if there were curtains you could close in front of the big windows so you can see the TV in the daytime or just block the sun that comes through very intensely, and the place needs a deep cleaning (windows, carpets, furniture). To get the most out of your trip, I would recommend bringing your own large trash can, recycling bin, and some heavy contractor bags as you'll need to pack out your trash. I wasn't sure the landfill in Landers was open on Sunday, so we brought trash home to throw away. Bring your own paper towels, extra TP, and some basic cleaning supplies. Enjoy!

Report: Alabama AD Bill Battle says Nick Saban focused on recruiting, Oklahoma
With the reports that Mack Brown likely steps down as coach at Texas this week, there is as much interest in what is going on at Alabama as there is at Texas. That's because some see Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban as the Longhorns' key target to replace Brown.
Which explains why Alabama athletic director Bill Battle is being asked about his head coach.
"He's working his butt off on recruiting," Battle said of Saban, according to a tweet by USA Today's Dan Wolken. "We're focused on recruiting and playing Oklahoma."
When asked about a possible contract extension for Saban, Battle emphasized that football was the most important thing on Alabama's agenda right now.
"The Sugar Bowl is where his efforts are and that's where mine are," Battle said.
Battle also addressed the competitive nature of the college football business.
"There are segments of our industry that require market-driven salaries," Battle explained.
10 best wins in the Mack Brown Era
5 worst losses under Mack Brown
Tell us: Is Nick Saban's the Texas Longhorns coach in 2014?
