A 21-year-old Russellville woman, 18-year-old Russellville male and 18-year-old London male were arrested during the weekend and cited for driving while intoxicated (DWI) and other traffic violations, according to Russellville police reports.
Officer Alvin Turner conducted a traffic stop Friday morning on a blue Ford Contour driven by the Russellville woman at O Street and Boston Avenue. After failing field sobriety tests, a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) test was conducted at the police station and yielded a result of .16 percent. She was cited for DWI (first offense) and driving left of center. A 22-year-old Clarksville woman passenger was cited for public intoxication.
A London male was cited for driving under the influence (DUI, second offense), driver's license suspended for DWI and speeding during a traffic stop Sunday morning conducted by Officer Carey James after a maroon Ford Escort was observed driving on West Main Street 45 mph in a 35 mph zone. During the traffic stop, conducted at EZ Mart on West Main, a box of beer was discovered under the legs of one of five passengers in the vehicle.
Officer J.M. Jacobs cited a Russellville male for DWI, stop sign violation and failure to yield Sunday morning after a red Chevrolet S-10 pickup truck was observed failing to stop at the East Gum Street and Highway 7 intersection.

After failing field sobriety tests and a BAC test result at the police station was .09 percent, he was transported to the Pope County Detention Center.
Too much beer
A 22-year-old Dover man was arrested by Officer Robert W. Stevens on Friday afternoon and cited for disorderly conduct and overpossession of beer after he was observed urinating outside a black Mazda pickup truck while parked at a Russellville city park.
According to a report, the man stated he had gotten off work at a local factory and consumed two beers. Twenty-seven beers were discovered in the truck. He received the citations at the detention center.
Marijuana possession
A 32-year-old Russellville man was arrested Saturday and cited for possession of a controlled substance (marijuana, second offense), possession of an instrument of crime, public intoxication, refusal to submit to arrest and obstruction of governmental operations during a traffic stop on East M Street, according to a report.
Officer Blake Williamson responded to a burglary in progress and observed two males behind a residence looking at a cable box. The man had three outstanding warrants from Russellville police and two outstanding warrants from the Pope County Sheriff's Department. A pipe and bag of a green leafy substance believed to be marijuana was dropped by the man, who was previously convicted of possession of marijuana in 2000, the report indicated.
A felony hold was placed on him at the detention center.
Criminal mischief
DARDANELLE -- Approximately $1,010 in damage was done Thursday at the front of the Senior Activity Center on 701 North Fifth St. as well as to the center's van, according to a report.
Cpl. Betty Levey was told by a female complainant that a security light had been broken, patio furniture had been turned over, and the van had been vandalized. The words "smoke weed every day" were keyed into the side of the vehicle, and footprints were on the hood. Tires were deflated and someone allegedly spit on the windshield.
Chief Montie Sims was notified, the scene was photographed and the incident is still under investigation. There are no suspects at this time.
Alleged assault
DARDANELLE -- A Dardanelle man reported to Chief Montie Sims the alleged sexual abuse of his 3-year-old daughter, according to a report.
The complainant stated when he went to pick up the child at her grandmother's residence, she told him that she discovered the girl playing in a family room with her clothes pulled below her knees and holding a doll in a lewd manner. When the grandmother asked why she was doing that, the complainant stated the girl said that is what the alleged suspect does to her.
The report indicated the grandmother questioned the girl further, and told the father the alleged incidents took place at the residence of the alleged suspect, who is the boyfriend of the girl's mother. The father and grandmother took the girl to the police department for interviews. According to the report, the girl was taken to Arkansas Children's Hospital in Little Rock.
Property damage
HECTOR -- A 43-year-old woman reported an estimated $3,000 in damage to her 1996 Pontiac Firebird when a silver metal gate was discovered in the vehicle's windshield Saturday, according to a report.
The complainant stated she was turning into the Hector School District parking lot and could not avoid the gate, which she stated was blown by a gust of wind. Eric Armour, superintendent, took pictures of the damage, the report indicated.
Residential burglary
A 71-year-old Russellville man reported Thursday to Russellville police that approximately $3,455 in jewelry was allegedly stolen and damage was done at a residence on South Hartford Avenue, according to a report.
The complainant stated to Officer Robert Stevens that entry was gained by forcing open the front door. Missing items included his daughter's white wood and glass jewelry box, valued at $100; miscellaneous jewelry, including rings, necklaces and earrings, $2,000; a gold Egyptian ring, $600; a blue topaz ring, $200; and $550 in damage to the front door.
The department's Criminal Investigation Division is continuing the investigation.
Domestic battery
A 46-year-old Russellville man was arrested Friday at a Butler Lane residence and cited for two counts of domestic battery, terroristic threatening and disorderly conduct, according to a report.
A female complainant told officers that her husband had allegedly lost his mind, had been drinking and was suicidal. The complainant said the man slapped her and grabbed her by the hair when he wanted to take keys to a vehicle, until her father stepped in and another physical altercation began. The father stated the man kicked and struck him several times before he went to a bedroom.
The suspect attempted to pull away from the arresting officer several times, according to the report, and stated that he would kill his wife. The man was cursing the officer when he was taken to the detention center.

You can Wright it down, USA is in semis
Americans' dramatic three-run rally in ninth beats Puerto Rico
MIAMI -- Chants of "USA! USA! USA!" rang through Dolphin Stadium as Team USA players piled on David Wright near second base.
The calendar may say March, but the celebration on Tuesday night resembled October.
Wright blooped a dramatic two-run single, capping a three-run ninth inning, that lifted Team USA to a 6-5 win over Puerto Rico in an elimination game at the World Baseball Classic.
For Wright, the Mets All-Star third baseman, it was the ideal finish to a 3-for-4 night in a game in which Team USA struggled to find the big hit.
With the victory, Team USA is guaranteed a place in the semifinals in Los Angeles. It will join Venezuela from Pool 2 in making the trip out West. Team USA wraps up its six-game set at Dolphin Stadium on Wednesday at 7 p.m. ET against Venezuela in a game that will decide seeding.
"The celebration was pretty wild," Wright said. "I never thought that we'd be dogpiling in March, but it was pretty special and something I'll always remember."
After squandering chances all night, Team USA responded in its final at-bat.
Shane Victorino opened the inning with a single off his Phillies teammate, J.C. Romero. Brian Roberts singled, and the drama began to build. Derek Jeter lined a long fly to right, and Victorino tagged and moved to third. Roberts swiped second, and Jimmy Rollins walked in an eight-pitch at-bat, loading the bases and bringing the 13,224 to their feet.
Fernando Cabrera relieved Romero to face Kevin Youkilis, who homered in the third inning. On five pitches, the Red Sox All-Star walked, closing the gap to one run.
"To me, the fan support was the best it's been the whole entire tournament," Youkilis said. "I think that it was unbelievable, the feeling of the 'USA!' chants, and it just actually felt for once that we were the home team, and that was a great sign."
The park had its share of Puerto Rican fans, and everyone on the night was treated to a high-quality game.
For Team USA, Tuesday was sweet revenge. On Saturday night, Puerto Rico swarmed Team USA, 11-1, ending the game by the 10-run rule in seven innings. The crowd on hand Tuesday was treated to a more competitive and compelling contest.
"Well, I really wanted to play Puerto Rico," conceded Team USA manager Davey Johnson. "I didn't want to say it in the press conference the other day, but both clubs had beat us. But we hadn't beaten Puerto Rico."
Team USA split two games with Venezuela in the first round in Toronto. And it was embarrassed on Saturday by a strong Puerto Rican team that now is going home after Wright slapped his opposite-field single on a 2-1 pitch to become the hero.
Puerto Rico built its lead on Carlos Delgado's two-run homer and two RBIs and a homer from Alex Rios. Rios scored an insurance run in the ninth inning, giving his country a two-run cushion.
"If you are a baseball fan, you had to enjoy this game," Jeter said. "Regardless of what country you are from, which I'm sure if you are from Puerto Rico you were a little bit disappointed, but it was still an exciting game to watch."
Walks allowed hurt Team USA's pitching staff on Tuesday. Of the seven combined walks issued, Puerto Rico converted three of them for runs. Still, Team USA was able to prevail.
After overcoming a two-run deficit, Puerto Rico reclaimed a one-run lead in the sixth inning. Capitalizing on a leadoff walk issued by reliever Heath Bell to Ivan Rodriguez, Rios slapped an RBI single to center.
Team USA missed on several chances, stranding runners on second and third in the third inning, a runner on second in the fifth and runners at the corners in the seventh.
Down by a run in the seventh, Victorino singled and went to second on Roberts' sacrifice bunt. Jeter walked, and Rollins lifted a fly ball to right field. On the play, Victorino advanced to third when right fielder Rios' throw deflected off him while he was standing on second base.
Puerto Rico protested briefly, claiming Victorino obstructed the ball. Their argument was denied. Reliever Saul Rivera entered and retired Youkilis on a groundout to shortstop.
Again in the eighth inning, the United States left a runner at second. Wright singled to open the inning. But with two outs, Romero struck out Brian McCann, stranding pinch-runner Curtis Granderson on second. Granderson ran for Adam Dunn, who reached on a fielder's choice.
In the third inning, Youkilis gave Team USA a 3-1 advantage when he launched a shot to left for his third homer of the Classic.
"When you have the fans and the adrenaline rush from the fans getting into the game, it helps out a lot," Youkilis said. "That's a big reason why we won today, I think."

Energy Journal: How Shale Gas is Reshaping the Oil Market
The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries is sending mixed messages on the shale gas boom.
On the one hand, as Dow Jones Newswires reports, the producer group doesn't seem particularly concerned. On the other, as Reuters notes, it has at least acknowledged that the huge amounts of shale oil and gas coming onto the market—particularly in the U.S.—are changing the global supply picture.
The Wall Street Journal reports how the U.S.'s reliance on OPEC's oil will fall significantly in the coming years although, due to the cost of extracting domestic unconventional oil, this won't mean cheaper prices.

As someone who grew up with English English and then came to the US, I have got used to the different spellings, especially the missing u in words like color and favor and honor. In general, American spellings make more sense, so switching to it was easy.
When it comes to the letter i, Americans also sometimes drop it, to say (for example) 'aluminum' instead of the English 'aluminium'. But recently I have heard people drop the i in the word 'verbiage' to coin a new word 'verbage' which does not currently exist even in America, at least according to the Merriam-Webster online dictionary.
Also, unlike the u, which seems to be always dropped, the policy on i is not so consistent. I have heard people add i to the word mischievous to say 'mischievious', a word which also does not currently exist.
I am not one of those people who think that language should be unchanging. English is a rich language precisely because it grows by adding new words. But these are not new words but spelling variations on old ones and I was curious as to whether what I have heard is merely a regional idiosyncrasy or whether others have heard similar usages.


text: Thank you, Sagart. So do I. My own take on the man is that his primary legacy will be as Joseph Ratzinger, theologian and scholar. And perhaps the humility he is showing by resigning. I admire him for that. But most everything else about his papacy and his role in the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, I would prefer never happened.

MS Inspiration: Zoe Koplowitz Finishes Last Place At The NYC Marathon
In a time of 31 hours and 20 minutes, Zoe Koplowitz completed the New York City Marathon yesterday (the day after she started) in last place–and she couldn't be happier.
"It doesn't matter how long it takes me to finish, it's that I finish and I finish from the heart," she said at the end.
For the 23rd time, Zoe crossed the Central Park finish line on crutches. The 63-year-old author and motivational speaker, who set a world record for the longest marathon finish time in the history of women's running, has been living with multiple sclerosis since she was 25 and has completed every NYC Marathon since 1987–in last place. In fact, this is a woman who changed my life before I even knew who she was.[tagbox tag="inspirational women"]
It was 1994, and it was the day after I had run my first NYC Marathon. Sore, tired and a bit discouraged (because the 26.2 miles were so much harder than I ever imagined), I gingerly hobbled out of my hotel which was across the street from Central Park. As I stood there in the crisp New York fall air, I noticed a lot of hoopla in the park–the location of mile 25 from yesterday's marathon. There were reporters, news trucks and a small crowd cheering. When I walked over there, I couldn't believe my eyes. There was a woman, on crutches, still doing the race. I listened to the crowd marvel over the fact that she had been out there all night and was still going strong, determined to cross the finish line even though she had MS. She was out there to prove a point: She could still do this. Watching her with tears in my eyes (and now as I write this), Zoe became an inspiration to me. No longer could I complain about being tired and sore after the challenge of running this marathon in a fraction of the time that she was out there. No longer could I feel sorry for myself for not meeting the time goal I had set for myself (even Oprah beat me that year when she ran the Marine Corps Marathon a month earlier). And never again would I say "I can't".
So often we only hear stories about the front runners at races, but this story of the last place finisher is my favorite. Seventeen years later, I am still hearing about Zoe. And still being inspired by her.
Watch her amazing finish here:

Suitcase DIY: 3 Craft Projects for Vintage Suitcases
April 26th, 2011 | by Becky Striepe
What is it about vintage suitcases? I think they carry so much history. Those sturdy, beautiful, old-timey pieces of luggage are packed full of trips and stories. Vintage suitcases are not so ideal for modern travel: they're heavier than modern suitcases and they often don't have those handy wheels on the bottom, but that doesn't mean they aren't still worth salvaging! Here are a few suitcase DIY projects that rethink those suitcases

According to the vast majority of videogames (also: movies, TV, comics, etc.) out there, corporations are mostly huge assholes – constantly trying to wipe out humanity, develop crazy technology, and generally doing all kinds of malevolent acts in the name of the bottom line. They're more than willing to actively murder their customer base, use their employees as glorified guinea pigs, and relentlessly pursue insane goals that must have been really tough to pitch in a board meeting (how many PowerPoints devoted to the pros and cons of a zombie apocalypse have there been?). Here is a list of some of the biggest, meanest job providers to face a miserable third quarter thanks to one plucky hero.
Capcom, EA, Microsoft, Activision...oh wait, this is evil companies in games!
I thought it was real life evil.

The Old Exchange is a 'must-see' for all Charleston visitors. During your visit, you will discover this building's integral role in our country's quest for independence and its important service to our young nation.
While many of the historic buildings in Charleston are residences and focus on prominent families of the city, the Old Exchange began its existence as a public building and remains so today. Owned by the South Carolina Society of the Daughters of American Revolution, the Old Exchange offers public tours of its three floors that highlight various aspects of Charleston history during the Colonial and Revolutionary eras and put into context the people and events of the period.
Is the Old Exchange Building a fancy architectural jewel designed to house 18th-century assemblies? Or is it the ghoulish prison of the Revolution, the place where the martyr Isaac Hayne spent his last night? Or is it the place where George Washington greeted his fellow citizens? And there is no question that slaves were sold for close to a generation next to the very balcony from which the Declaration of Independence was read. (more)
We heartily believe in the importance of a well-rounded education. To that end, The Old Exchange has developed a selection of diverse educational programs to highlight and reinforce various aspects of 17th and 18th century Colonial history, Revolutionary War history, the history of the United States Constitution, and for fun, a bit of Charles Town pirate history.
Thousands of students from around the area visit the Old Exchange each year as part of their core curriculum. What better way to reinforce history learned in the classroom than to visit the Old Exchange and be actively engaged in learning during one of our Educational Programs. (more)

Brown-Warren civility begins to crack
For the better part of a year, the Massachusetts Senate race between Sen. Scott Brown and Elizabeth Warren has been a paragon of positivity: Two candidates making their case to voters, not a single ugly attack ad. Even super PACs — the masters of doing candidates' dirty work — have stayed away.
If that all sounds too good to keep up — well, it probably is.
Story Continued Below
( Also on POLITICO: 2012 House and Senate elections polling center)
With control of the Senate hanging in the balance and Democrat Warren at risk of losing in the deep blue state, the civility that has marked the past year may soon be a quaint memory.
Warren took the first shot last week with a spot criticizing Brown for "siding with the big money guys" — mild by negative ad standards, but a departure still. The ad may well be a sign of a distinctly harsher tone to come.
Warren acted under acute pressure from Democratic leaders — in Washington and Massachusetts — who are fretting that one of their best Senate pickup opportunities could be slipping away.
Their anxiety is well-founded.
The latest public poll had Warren down by only a percentage point but recent surveys show her trailing by double digits among critical independent voters. And Brown, a rare Republican in Congress who bucks his party at times, is peeling away as many as one in five Democrats.
Enter New York Sen. Chuck Schumer, the messaging chief for Senate Democrats. He personally urged Warren to take a tougher line against Brown, as did Guy Cecil, the executive director of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, according to sources familiar with the talks. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid shared those concerns, sources said.
The consumer advocate's earlier ads showed her looking straight into the camera, lamenting the country's failure to create public infrastructure jobs and promote women's rights.
"Preachy, professorial and petulant" was how some strategists in her own party described the Harvard Law professor's dozen ads since November.
One Massachusetts Democrat, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the discontent over Warren's media strategy boiled over at delegate meetings at the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte.
"The repeated refrain was, 'The ads suck,'" quipped the Democrat.
Message received. Warren's commercial this week features a boxing trainer with a thick Boston accent, praising Warren as a "real fighter" and knocking Brown as a tool of "big corporations" and backer of tax cuts for the wealthy.
While Warren has attacked Brown as a partisan in her stump speeches, Democrats say she needs to make that same case in TV ads to voters who may just be tuning in to the race.

The fast and the furious world of jet ski racing is providing some high-octane thrills and spills to the Lakeside this weekend.
For the second year in a row Doncaster welcomed some of the world's top riders for the European Jet Ski Championship finals.
Dozens of participants from across Europe, as well as a team from the United Arab Emirates, performed death defying stunts and turns in a bid to win the title.
The three day event, held from Friday to Sunday, has seen spectator numbers grow and thousands of people lined the water's edge to witness all the thrills and spills.
Doncaster rider Brad Rickaby said hosting the event in his home town was great for boosting the profile of the sport.
The 21-year-old, of Doncaster Road, Hatfield, said: "It is a fantastic spectator sport and people who come usually visit again.
"The last European round was a 36 hour drive to Austria, but this time it was a seven minute drive into town so it was fantastic for me.
"Just in the last two years we have seen an increase in membership at places like Rother Valley Country Park and Tyran Lakes, near the airport.
"It also shines the light on Doncaster from an international perspective and helps to bring in new trade and business."
Richard Young, business development tourism and visitor economy officer for Business Doncaster, said: "Hosting the finals is a real coup for Doncaster and is another quality event that puts the town on the visitor map.
"This shows that Doncaster is capable of hosting an international event of this size and more than anything enables visitors to have a great day out for free.
"The event also provides an opportunity for us to promote other visitor attractions in Doncaster, such as Yorkshire Wildlife Park and Bawtry Paintball.
"Tourism to Doncaster is up by 14.2 per cent in the last year and events like this are a large part of that success."
He added: "We have been working with the organisers for the last two years now and they say they are very happy with the facilities and how the event is run. We hope to host the event next year, and who knows maybe many years to come."

EekoWorld (Environmental Education for Kids Online) informs K-4 students about the role they play in taking care of Earth.
Learning Games & Interactives for Students
The website has two interactives: EekoCreature and EekoHouse. Choose a biome and food source and build an animal with EekoCreature, and then care for it as it encounters environmental problems in different ecosystems. Students have ten minutes to catch the bus in EekoHouse, but before they can leave they need to make sure they've left house in proper order. Earn points for every environmentally responsible act and raise the world health score. A teacher's guide suggests ways to use both interactives in the classroom.
- Students learn about plants and animals of the tundra, forest, aquatic, grasslands, and desert biomes in The Environment.
- Garbage & Recycling explains what happens to trash, how paper, glass, metal and plastic are recycled, and how even kids can help minimize environmental damage by making wise choices.
- Air & Water discusses their importance and the consequences of pollution.
- Plants & Animals examines the connections between different forms of life on Earth, endangered species, and what we can do to ensure the survival of species.
- The Future looks at possible environmentally friendly inventions. Take a future field trip and see what could happen if we don't take care of the environment.
At the Eeko Exchange students can tell EekoWorld what they think about the environment.
Loco Cheeko! is a card game. Students can customize a deck with their own EekoCreature and then print the cards and instructions.
Teacher & Parent Resources
Teacher's Guide suggests how to use the multimedia resources, lessons, and activities.
Lesson Plans provides three lessons for each grade, K-4. Each lesson has activities and extension activities. McREL standards are listed. PDF versions are provided.
Family Guide features ten projects and activities for the whole family.

Sachin Tendulkar retires from Test cricket, but is it two years too late?
Sachin Tendulkar's reluctance to retire can be attributed to the perceived uncertainties of life after cricket. But the best thing about the Master Blaster's announcement, unlike other cricket legends, is that he will bid farewell on the pitch.cricket Updated: Oct 15, 2013 15:38 IST
Considering the long season of retirements we are in, the best thing about Sachin Tendulkar's announcement is he will bid farewell on the pitch.
Unlike the exits of Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman after just farewell media conferences, the occasion of Tendulkar's record 200th Test will give thousands of his fans — the venue for this West Indies match may not be too significant beyond the BCCI politics around it — the opportunity to watch Indian cricket's talisman one last time and give him a standing ovation.
There will surely be many moist eyes, the sentiment a tribute to the various roles the batting great has donned over the years.
A curly-haired boy, fresh from making an instant mark in hostile Pakistan, was held back from the next tour to protect him from facing a potent West Indies pace attack on home turf.
Tendulkar soon proved the Board was being overprotective, and steadily climbed from the lower half of the Test batting order to make the No 4 spot his own before perhaps becoming the biggest draw in turning one-day cricket into the money spinner it became.
While Tendulkar's place in the pantheon of batting greats has been long assured, the value he brought into the team would stand out long after the retirement of a player who ticked all the boxes and owns a set of statistics that is unlikely to go out of fashion.
But beyond the runs he has made, and the manner in which he set the agenda for innings, Tendulkar was not a reclusive genius that Brian Lara became in a crumbling West Indies side.
At his prime, which lasted a cool decade and a half, he never shied away from toiling even when the team appeared to be going under.
In a side where the likes of Rahul Dravid and Sourav Ganguly were still settling down, if the pressure of expectations was unbearable, Tendulkar learned to internalise it.
If he felt some of his team mates won praise a bit too easily because he was always expected to do much more, there was no emotion or public comment to draw conclusions from.
For sheer effort, class, determination and Tendulkar's sense of occasion, the 136 against Pakistan in the Chennai Test in 1999 will stand up there. He almost carried India to victory, but for back spasms — Tendulkar's first major injury and caused by the wear and tear of constant playing — that led to his dismissal and a lower order collapse.
He was the one the nation looked up to when the match-fixing scandal broke in 2000.
In the end, one just got the feeling that by staying on, he was no longer the master of his game.
But Tendulkar's reluctance to walk away after the 2011 World Cup high could perhaps be attributed to perceived uncertainties after cricket, having remained in a cocoon since he was a 16-year-old, first insulated from distractions by senior teammates and then having to keep his sanity in the wake of the prolonged Tendulkar mania.

Many local watchdogs have questioned the accreditation of a Waterford Township travel agency in the wake of an investigation that was launched more than a month ago.
Penny's Personal Travel, a home-based travel agency, is being investigated by local and federal law enforcement agencies who say they've received several reports she didn't provide travel services promised. Owner Penny Kane had been offering all-inclusive trips to Hawaii, Mexico, California and other hot travel destinations at prices that were lower than any competitor.
While more than 125 complaints have been confirmed by the Waterford Police Department, Kane hasn't been charged criminally. But news of the ongoing investigation has local travel agents warning prospective travelers to be leery of scams.
"If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is," says Carol Wagner, owner of Commerce Township-based Travel Plus, a Travel Leaders Company.
When some of Wagner's clients came forward with Penny's fliers for a $1,000 Hawaii vacation, Wagner and her team decided to do some research.
"We couldn't even get close to the airfare for the price that Penny was advertising," she says. "It was literally too good to be true."
Wagner, a 30-year veteran of the travel agency industry, says Penny's Personal Travel is not approved by the Airlines Reporting Corporation (ARC) nor is the business a member of the American Society of Travel Agents (ASTA).
A current member of the Great Lakes ASTA board of directors, Wagner adds: "I know all the members in the area ... she's not one."
The benefits of working with a watchdog organization such as ASTA is the peace of mind that it gives customers to know they are working with a legitimate company, Wagner says.
Being a member of ASTA "lends professionalism to a business," she says. "We have very stringent ethics rules."
Emmy Hermes, ASTA membership team representative, confirms: "I'm not seeing Penny's Personal Travel in our database, and they would've shown up if they were ever a member in the past."
Travel Plus agent Chris Livermore says that while accreditation provides a degree of legitimacy, an independent travel agent isn't technically required to be accredited.
"Anybody can put up a shingle and sell travel," says the travel agent, "but I don't see why you would want to go to them."
Livermore explains that most travel agencies, as businesses, are accredited, and that the owner of the agency would screen a particular agent that it hires. Independent agents are not necessarily not accredited, she says, as long as they are affiliated with an accredited travel agency.
There is also a a legal, government-controlled agency called the International Airlines Travel Agent Network (IATAN) that issues each firm an identification number. This is also not required, but "you can't sell an airline ticket without this," Livermore says.
"It shows that you're bonded, that there's some credibility there," she explains. "Travel Plus operates under the umbrella of (the owner's) Carol's IATAN number."
Complaints about Penny's Personal Travel -- established in June 1998 in Waterford -- are relatively recent. They began coming into the Better Business Bureau a little less than two years ago.
Better Business Bureau Vice President Michelle Michels said the agency became accredited by the BBB's Eastern Michigan office in June 2012.
"At the time she joined, she had one reportable complaint that had been resolved. ... Our impression was that she was legitimate," Michels says.
From October 2012 until Kane's BBB accreditation was taken in March, the office "noted a pattern of complaints," remembers Michels.
"The last time we talked it was in response to the revoking of accreditation. (Kane) requested that all of her (complaint) requests be reopened so she could respond to complaints, so I did that," Michels says. "All the (requests) I've opened have not been responded to and there has still been no response ... and there's been six new complaints that have not been responded to yet.
"There was every reason to have confidence (in Kane) before this happened, but after this I have little hope of it turning out well."
Throughout the course of the investigation, Kane's good standing with the Waterford Chamber of Commerce also was in jeopardy. Executive Director Marie Hauswirth says the first complaint about Penny's Personal Travel came in late 2012.
"(Kane) was in good standing until a year and a half ago. ... When we got our first complaint, we acted on it, and ... she's no longer a member," says Hauswirth, who noted any chamber of commerce member can be expelled by a two-thirds vote for misconduct.
"I can't say we've had any problems (in the past)," Hauswirth says.�
She adds that people would call to say they got their "(information) last minute ... but I thought that came with the territory."
Representatives with the Airlines Reporting Corporation say that while it is good to be a member of certain organizations as a travel agent, being "legitimate is kind of a weird thing."
"(Travel) agents don't have to be accredited" with the ARC, say spokeswoman Katie Murrin. Murrin explains that those who want to issue airline tickets have to go through the ARC.
"Expedia and Orbitz and those places ... money comes our way and we disperse it. Instead of every single airline having to deal with (travel) agencies, they have us to funnel everything," she says.
Kane has been contacted but has declined comment.
Avoid travel scams
Here are some tips from the American Society of Travel Agents (ASTA):
-- Be wary of firms that require you to wait at least 60 days to take your trip
-- Read the fine print for restrictions, "black out dates" and companion fees
-- Search the Better Business Bureau or the ASTA to see if the agent is a member
-- Never give out your credit card number unless you initiate the transaction and are confident in who you're doing business with
-- After you've made plans, contact the hotels and airlines to make sure you have a spot reserved
-- Know when to walk away from high-pressure sales presentations that don't allow you time to evaluate the offer
-- Always pay with a credit card if possible

Live Journal: How Opening Day use to start…
Originally posted March 31, 2007:
Well, the Major League Baseball 2007 season will start tomorrow night, April 1, with a night game between the World Champion St. Louis Cardinals and the National League Eastern Division Champion New York Mets. But I won't be talking about that. What I will be talking about is a tradition that appears to have all but disappeared within the last decade or so, that baseball no longer starts its season in Cincinnati. Before any of you say what do you mean, since Cincinnati plays a home game Monday afternoon, what I mean is that when I was growing up, back in the 1970s and 1980s, I and I'm sure of lot of other baseball fans did as well, knew that the season had started once we'd heard that the first pitch had been thrown by the Cincinnati Reds' opening day starter against the first batter of his team's opponent for that day.
Now, if you're wondering about the tradition behind it, it goes like this: In 1869, the Cincinnati Red Stockings, the possible ancestors of the present-day Cincinnati Reds or Redlegs, which had been formed earlier in 1866 as an amateur team, became the first team in the country to pay all of their players. Before then, all teams, the majority of which came from the East Coast and were mostly formed from members of gentlemen clubs, were made up of amateur players, which meant that they only played the game part-time. With that year's Cincinnati club, people were now being paid to play baseball full time. This is important as these full timers went across the country, or rather across the Eastern half of the country, to play against the more traditional amateur teams, as well as some college clubs, and for the that year the team went 57 and 0. The following year, in 1870, the team won 24 more games in a row before it finally was defeated, 8-7, by the Brooklyn Athletics in Brooklyn on June 14. So, for over a year, the team won 71 games in a row before finally losing a game. The team was disbanded in 1871, as the club that own the team couldn't afford putting together another team of professionals for that year.
Meanwhile, after seeing what a team made up of paid professionals could do, several other organizations started to create teams that were made up of paid players. This in turn led to the first organized league of professional teams, the National Association of Professional Base Ball Players in 1871. This would in turn lead to the creation of the present-day National League in 1876, which replaced the NA because that league had been dominated by one club, was inflicted by franchise instability, lacked a central authority and had been corrupted by gambling.
Anyway, as far as I know, the long standing tradition, or at least the tradition was during the years that I was growing up and until lately, had opening day beginning with a home game being played first in Cincinnati in honored of that particular team. But now, it appears that that tradition is now a thing of the past. I don't know why it happened, but I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out to be because the guys who are presently running major league baseball no longer honor certain traditions.

Racing's top prizes
Phar Lap's mounted hide is in Melbourne, his skeleton is in Wellington, New Zealand, his heart is in Canberra. And a set of his shoes could be on display in your home.
These are among the highlights of this Sunday's Leonard Joel auction of Horse Racing and Other Sporting Memorabilia in Melbourne.
The shoes come from direct descendants of David J. Davis, the American-born entrepreneur who bought Phar Lap sight unseen when the businessman was based in Sydney. According to legend, when Davis saw the horse, he regretted the decision.
The shoes come in a box with a ''Phar Lap's shoes'' note initialled D.D. There are a few more of his horseshoes around, so this set is conservatively estimated by Leonard Joel at $15,000 to $20,000.
Much more valuable and unique is the Davis family photo album containing 36 photos, some never seen before. This document is valued at $100,000 to $150,000. Again, these are conservative figures. It has already attracted the attention of museums and public institutions.
Phar Lap is up there with The Don in the sporting memorabilia stratosphere, yet Leonard Joel specialist Giles Moon admits he doesn't know how these items will fare.
''I'll tell you on Monday,'' he says.
He has conducted specific racing auctions in the past but is unsure of the state of the market. He's optimistic that a dose of spring carnival fever will push prices well above estimates.
Owners and trainers who happily spend millions on promising yearlings are not guaranteed to splurge a few thousand in spare change on a piece of history; the biggest bids are expected to come from punters who have had big wins during the week.
Apart from the Phar Lap items, one of the highlights of the sale is a ceremonial whip presented to jockey Billy Duncan, who rode Peter Pan to victory at the 1932 Melbourne Cup.
Peter Pan, also winner of the Cup in 1934, is considered one of the great Melbourne Cup champions, ranked in the top 10 by most turf historians. Estimates for the whip are $10,000 to $15,000.
This is part of the collection of the late Norm Cove, a veteran enthusiast who worked as a groundsman at Caulfield Racecourse and witnessed more than 50 Caulfield Cups.
Other highlights from his collection are a leather-bound 1898 Melbourne Cup race program ($800 to $1200) and a rare race-finish photograph showing Carbine winning the 1890 Melbourne Cup ($1000 to $1500).
Carbine is generally considered to be the second-greatest thoroughbred to race in Australia, with some daring to place him even above Phar Lap. Bernborough, Tulloch and Kingston Town are others in the highest echelon, although the top two dominate the market.
For example, race books from the 1930 Melbourne Cup, won by Phar Lap, have previously sold for about $7000.
Melbourne Cup trophies are generally regarded as the most valuable pieces of memorabilia, especially the one that, according to rumour, no longer exists. One theory is that the 1930 Melbourne Cup was sold by trainer Harry Telford, then re-engraved and presented to two subsequent winners. If you know where it is, it's worth about $1 million.
In 2000, the 1890 Melbourne Cup won by Carbine sold for $272,500. In 2007, Moon, then with Bonhams & Goodman, sold the 1892 cup won by Glenloth for $168,000.
The value of the cups depends on the stature of the horse, but also on the art of the silversmith. Before the three-handled ''loving cup'' became the standard, trophies were one-off creations by master silversmiths. Those from the 19th century are works of art.
Until the 1930 Melbourne Cup reappears, the top result for racing memorabilia is the 1930 Cox Plate, bought for a claimed $400,000 by Makybe Diva's owner, Tony Santic. Naturally, this was another of the trophies won by Phar Lap.

Lets say some team out there offers the Jets two 1st's, a 2nd and a 3rd for Revis.
Revis says to said team, "that's not enough money for me, I'm not signing that long-term contract".
Do you seriously think that team would give up all those drafts picks to have Revis for only a one-year rental when he can become a FA at the end of the season?
The Jets have absolutely no say whatsoever where Revis goes.
Revis controls the entire situation by holding all the cards.
Outside of the fact that the 49ers are not one piece away since they are I the sb, drafted a db in the first round last year who is developing behind a solid group of dbs, and the player on our side just began running after knee surgery - why would they put themselves in cap hell with revis's contract demands when they have a bunch of young thoroughbreds that are coming due soon? 4 players needed to restructure to resign bowman. Inevitably, some are going to leave so they will need those picks.
I know your a jet fan and it is exciting building a new team, but you have to look at the trade from the other vantage point.

When you bring in a guy known mostly for his ability to work within the cap, you'd like to think he's capable of figuring out a way to pay your best players. Yes even if they are unreasonable, greedy, or whatever else you want to accuse Revis of. The Jets need our elite CB and elite GM to get together and come up with an elite deal that works for everyone.
All team's fanbase's do it. The patriots board was alive with getting a 1st rd pick for Cassel a few years ago. Remember Al Davis is dead.
Last edited by patman; 01-29-2013 at 09:53 AM.
The most likely scenario that plays out is the Jets will be unable to extend Revis to a long-term contract, unable to find a trading partner that Revis would accept, he plays out the 2013 season as a Jet and then walks away as a UFA at the end of the season.
If that plays out, the Jets would get absolutely nothing for the best CB in football.
Fantasy football again ...
Please Ban anyone who makes a new Revis thread.
Of course, the Jets won't get an oil package that they otherwise would if he agrees to a long term deal, but they can most certainly trade him. Might get a 2nd in return.
The Jets may be in the position of deciding whether to take what they can get now or let him play out the year and get nothing. Or, go with the 3rd option and see what they can sign him for. The last option is definitely a possibility - the Jets cap situation is crap in 2013, but opens up afterwards. The bulk of the money doesn't have to hit until 2014 and beyond.
I think any team that would be giving up multile draft picks would want a guarantee that Revis would agree to a long-term contract before they pull the trigger on the trade.

You hit the nail right on the head with the correct interpretation of that perplexing Hebrew verse.
Also, keep in mind the three aspects of salvation. Spirit, Soul and Body.
No -- You cannot lose salvation of the spirit. The Holy Spirit indwells believers once and forever. You are guaranteed to at least enter into eternity with Christ in the Millennium and afterward in the New Heaven. That is justification.
Yes -- You can lose salvation of your soul -- your mind, will and emotions -- because of unrepentant sin and the lack of good works as a saved person. This "loss of salvation" is manifested in loss of rewards at the Judgment Seat of Christ. With insufficient rewards you will only enter into the Millennium and New Heaven, but if you have sufficient rewards you will enter into, but also reign with Christ in the Millennium and New Heaven. Otherwise, you lose this part of your salvation. This is sanctification.
Yes -- Body: You can sin so much as a believer that God will take your life. You will still physically rise to join him with a new body, however, at the end. This is glorification.
The "lose your salvation" verses quoted in the post above should be examined in light of these differences. Sadly, they are often not, and that's where the confusion arises.
It is even so, english is a very poor language really, words tnd to be set in either/or cases when n the original there are shades of meaning.

Nomar: Return to DL is frustrating
Garciaparra talks about sustaining yet another injury
It's an understatement to say I'm extremely frustrated to be back on the disabled list.
I was starting to feel pretty good in my return from my hand injury. Things were starting to work for me the way I wanted. I was on the field, trying to help the team. That's all I cared about. Then this happened.
As soon as it happened, I knew I had pulled my calf. When I lunged after the ball I felt it right away. I walked around to see how it would feel. Ideally, I wanted to get through the rest of the inning and get checked out in the dugout. I tried to walk it off, but I couldn't. At that point, I knew I was in trouble.
It doesn't matter if I hurt myself on an innocent-looking play or a tough play. It's still a devastating thing. When it first happened, I didn't want to talk to anybody about it. I had worked so hard to get back, then to have something like this just put me right back on the DL -- it was just too frustrating.
This injury seems similar to a calf injury I had last year from which it took about two weeks to get back. Every time it happens it can be different, though, so you never know. I don't know how long it will take this time. Last year, once I came back, it didn't really bother me. I was all right. Time will tell how the injury reacts this time.
I didn't feel any worse the day after the injury than I thought I might. That's good. On the other hand, it never feels great when you have trouble walking. I don't have my normal gallop or anything. The first order will be rest to get the swelling down.
When you do come back from an injury, you try not to protect yourself or think about it subconsciously. But sometimes your body does that instinctively. That's why sometimes you see a pitcher with a sprained ankle suddenly hurt his shoulder. Everything is connected.
The plan for me now is to stay back from the East Coast road trip. That way I can get treatment all day and do what I need to do.
As for baseball activity, I can obviously throw, but I think I will be off baseball activity for a week, at least. It's about not putting any stress on the calf. The first order of the rehab process is rest, then you build your strength back up.
Just nine days after returning from a broken hand suffered in Spring Training, Nomar Garciaparra returned to the disabled list with a strained left calf that he suffered in the ninth inning of the Dodgers' game against the Rockies on Friday night.

My question is, how many of you are looking for Kevlar/Kevlar Mesh gear and what do you want to spend on it. Before we invest in the idea, i want to get an idea of what you folks(the ones who are looking Kevlar based gear) have on your mind. Please do share - All kinds of comments are welcome Thanks

Clarke continues hot batting form
A limping Michael Clarke will resume on 70 on Saturday in the first Test against Sri Lanka and teammate Phil Hughes has confidently predicted another massive score could be on the cards for the Australia captain.
Troubled by a couple of blows to the knee and thigh, Clarke had two on-field conversations with team physio Alex Kountouris before battling on. In sparkling form on a slow-paced pitch, Clarke hit seven boundaries from 136 deliveries in his side's 4-299 on day one.
Clarke had won the toss in overcast conditions on a green-tinged pitch at Hobart's Bellerive Oval and has put his side in a strong position.
The skipper has now scored 1428 runs in 10 matches in 2012 and has the Melbourne Test to follow later this month in his bid to edge past Ricky Ponting's national record of 1544 in 2005.
The consistent Mike Hussey is 37 not out, playing a crucial role in a 101-run stand for the fifth wicket.
Hughes made an entertaining 86 in his first Test appearance for 12 months, posting the highest score by a No.3 for Australia in 2012.
Clarke is well-placed according to Hughes to advance to three figures yet again in a year that has so far included three double tons and a triple-century.
Hughes was fourth man out with the total on 198 and says he had a ringside view of Clarke's skills.
"I was just watching when I went out. He was just that comfortable at the crease," Hughes said on Friday.
"It's outstanding really to watch. I haven't been in the team for the South African series but even watching him on TV, his confidence looks high.
"Tomorrow if he gets through that initial period (the second new ball is only 10 overs old) I'm sure he'll make another big one and it will be no surprise to anyone because of how good he's batting.
"He's really grown. It's just outstanding the way he's leading from the front."
Clarke limped off the field and was clearly in pain.
"It looked quite sore but I'm sure he'll be fine tomorrow," Hughes said.
Left-arm seamer Chanaka Welegedara claimed 3-99 for Sri Lanka.
Ed Cowan departed at 1-18 for four after top-edging a pull shot to mid-on.
Hughes and Warner added 79 for the second wicket before David Warner (57) was run out following a mix-up with Hughes in the final over of the first session.
Shane Watson (30) fell to a brilliant diving catch by Mahela Jayawardene at second slip at 3-183 after an 86-run stand with Hughes who was bowled by Welegedara at 4-198.
Tasmania's Ponting, Australia's leading Test runscorer who retired earlier this month, was given a lap of honour at the lunch interval in front of an adoring but small crowd of 6,221.

Syrian refugees head to Lebanon's Shia south

|IRIN, Syrian refugees head to Lebanon's Shia south, 29 January 2013, available at: http://www.refworld.org/docid/510baf522.html [accessed 17 January 2018]
|This is not a UNHCR publication. UNHCR is not responsible for, nor does it necessarily endorse, its content. Any views expressed are solely those of the author or publisher and do not necessarily reflect those of UNHCR, the United Nations or its Member States.
Initially concentrated in Lebanon's northern and eastern areas along the border with Syria, Syrian refugees (mostly Sunnis) are increasingly settling further south, in Lebanon's Shia heartland, dominated by the political and militant group Hezbollah, a long-time ally of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
Manal Tayyar fled to Lebanon after fighting erupted in her neighbourhood of Tadamun, on the outskirts of the Syrian capital Damascus last July. Neighbours tended to an injured person in her apartment; she left it stained with blood.
She followed her husband, who had been working in Lebanon before the Syrian crisis began, to live in the southern coastal city of Tyre in a room with a leaking ceiling, where the water and electricity are cut for days at a time. She sold her gold earrings to pay rent to an unsympathetic landlord, and then welcomed her mother, sisters, nieces, nephews and brother-in-law in the same room when they fled a few months later.
"And our whole family will follow us," her mother Khidra Hamad told IRIN. "No one will stay in Syria under the bombs."
Aid workers are yet to fully understand what is driving people south, given the sectarian sensitivities in a polarized Lebanon, but reckon it could be one of a few things:
Like Tayyar's husband, there were many Syrian migrants working in Lebanon before the war who have since brought their families. Others estimate that the poor towns and villages of the north have reached their absorption capacity, and that refugees may believe they have more chances of finding work in the south.
In addition, Lebanon's south - for decades the scene of war and occupation - is now one of the safer parts of the country, so far shielded from the problems that have engulfed places like the northern border city of Tripoli or even the capital Beirut, where a spillover of the Syrian conflict has led to fatal clashes and kidnappings between supporters and opponents of the Syrian government.
Some southerners are concerned, however.
On 23 January, the mayor of Tyre called a meeting with aid workers to discuss the growing needs.
"The [Syrian refugees] are increasing day by day," Hassan Dbouk told IRIN after the meeting. "We are very worried about the future problems that may result by their presence here - at all levels: economic, social, security."
"The problem between sects in Lebanon is a political fight; not a social fight. Nobody asks the Syrian refugees if they are Sunni or Shia, with or against the Syrian government" – Hassan Dbouk, Mayor of Tyre In the past two months, he said, Tyre has seen an increase in commercial sex work, petty theft, children begging and even the disappearance of laundry from clotheslines. He said the timing of the increase suggested Syrians were involved, but there was no direct evidence of the link.
"The level of incidents is still low, but we are very worried about the future," he added. "Human beings are human beings. If they become hungry, robbery will increase, crime will increase, begging will increase, the social problems will increase."
He also referred to increased job competition in an area with already high levels of unemployment; and the public health implications of overcrowding.
Need for More Aid
Unlike in the northern district of Akkar and the eastern Beka'a Valley, where a large-scale humanitarian operation has been under way since 2011, aid agencies only began ramping up aid in the south late last year.
So far, the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) has registered 10,612 Syrians living in Lebanon's two southern governorates, with another 22,300 awaiting registration meetings.
The Social, Humanitarian, Economical Intervention for Local Development (SHIELD), a local NGO which has been tracking new arrivals, says there are at least 20,000 families in southern Lebanon who have not registered. (SHIELD transports refugees who want to register by bus to UNHCR's nearest office in Sidon, a one-hour drive north of Tyre and even longer for those coming from rural villages.)
Many of the unregistered cross the border illegally - fearing any contact with Lebanese intelligence (with whom foreigners in southern Lebanon are obliged to register) - and live quietly in remote rural villages along the Israeli border where "the situation for them is very miserable," according to Rima Khayat, SHIELD's project manager.
Some Syrians in those areas live in abandoned schools, tents or - in the case of one family - in the engine room of an elevator shaft, Khayat said. At least 2,000 of the unregistered refugee families have not received any assistance, she said, though some international NGOs are hoping to reach them soon.
But locals say the aid in the south is limited: "Refugees in the south don't have anything - there is little NGO presence here," said Anis Slika, the mayor of the small southern village of Al-Fardis, north of the Syrian-Israeli border.
"Everyone is working in the north and in the Beka'a," Khayat told IRIN. "We're working with very limited resources."
Even in the main city of Tyre, where most agencies have offices, assistance to some refugees has been slow.
Tayyar has been waiting two months for a registration meeting. Insufficient staffing has led to a backlog and UNHCR says the wait for registration at the Sidon office is three months on average. (It prioritizes registration for cases in need of urgent assistance; and several NGOs provide aid to those who are not yet registered).
Aid agencies recognize the increasing needs and are scaling up.
The World Food Programme (WFP) began distributions in December and the UNHCR is set to open a second southern office in Tyre in the coming weeks to speed up registration. (UNHCR's national staffing levels have increased from around 60 at the start of the crisis to more than 250 today). The Lebanese civil society portal Daleel Madani advertises many vacancies for aid workers in the south.
Possible tensions
While the limited aid has so far been justified by the much smaller number of refugees in the south, the stakes here may well be higher.
"In the south, you have a community that is mostly pro-Bashar," said Sahar Atrache, an analyst with the International Crisis Group, referring to the Syrian president, who has been accused of heinous crimes against a mostly Sunni opposition.
Photo: Heba Aly/IRIN Tayyar's nephew sits on the floor next to his cousin, sleeping behind him "Probably those [refugees] who go south are not as aligned with the opposition," she told IRIN. "But some people [in southern Lebanon] are so extreme, saying things like 'Let Bashar kill them all and finish with it,' so this could cause problems."
By all accounts, sect has not been an issue so far.
Tayyar's family said they had not had any problems in this regard, and the mayor of Tyre is quick to point out that "nobody asks the Syrian refugees if they are Sunni or Shia, with or against the Syrian government… We believe that Syrians are from the same origin - we are [all] Arabs.
"The problem [between sects] in Lebanon is a political fight; not a social fight."
Shia Lebanese have been welcoming Sunni refugees in the Beka'a Valley, for example, since the beginning of the crisis.
But there are potential trigger points.
Already in the north, where majority Sunni Lebanese are hosting Sunni "brothers", resentment is beginning to build between the impoverished locals and their guests who are perceived to be receiving all the aid. Aid workers are increasingly stressing the need for donors to fund programmes for both Syrians and their host communities to avoid such tensions.
"The south is the most sensitive area," Atrache said. "If there is an overload [of refugees] there, the resentment you saw in the north, you'll see it also in the south. But then you have the political and sectarian problem; the problem will become much more acute."
Avoiding a crisis on its territory may be one of the reasons Hezbollah has also assisted refugees, Atrache said. The group has made a point of publicly differentiating between its political positions and its humanitarian aid. But, Atrache said, the aid may also be a way for Hezbollah to "control the refugees", amid rising fears.
"There is fear that the number of Syrians will increase and they will end up staying forever," said Abdel Magid Saleh, a member of parliament from Tyre with the Amal Movement, a Shia party belonging to the ruling March 8 alliance. "We took in the Palestinians on the basis that it would be 10 or 15 days, one month, two months; 64 years later, the Palestinians are only increasing.
"The fear is that Lebanon's demographics will be shaken," Saleh told IRIN, referring specifically to Christians becoming more of a minority, and a possible influx of Sunni extremists or Syrian opposition figures with a security-related agenda in Lebanon. "It is our right to be cautious.

Amare not realizing it was a zone and constantly turning the ball over is what killed us.. Along with plenty of bad decisions and some missed calls down the stretch. Yeah don't blame the refs.
Still, score is tied... Aldridge and Turiaf both scrambling for position.... NO FOUL. You don't want games decided by the refs... That's what happened tonight.
A questionable call gives Port the lead. Simple as that. after that, Knicks were behind and scrambling. There was no foul on Turiaf.
But Stat was fouled. He drove left and Camby put his arm on him and that is a foul... Hand checking isn't allowed anymore. AND, even if reach in was clean... That's always called a foul.... Especially if it's a star nplayer at home.
You think Kobe or MJ don't get the benefit of the whistle?
Knicks gave this away. SURE. But the end result was decided by the refs not the players.
POR DIDN'T MAKE A SHOT EITHER to still the win. The hit free throws.
The call should be right no matter if the player is a star or not, home or not.
The NBA calls fouls for touching the opposing team these days. We might have gotten free baskets too with one play with Douglas. The refs make some bad calls, but this game was pretty fair.
What we need to do is play like we did in the last few minutes of the game last night. Push the ball with extra speed, even if we have a nine point lead in the last few minutes. That strategy might be at least one way of sealing a win.
Another decent game by the Knicks taking it down the stretch to crunchtime
The 2nd crunchtime loss on time out plays written by Dantoni
Blazers started running a Zone to stop Amare, and our 9 point lead disapeared. Our offense was suppose to go through Felton/Douglas/Fields/Chandler in screening 2 point jumpers on the Zone.
Why was Felton & Amare running a pick n roll in a defensive zone, when they couldve kicked it out for a 2-ball jumper
Stop blaming the refs, they make bad calls against both teams and it usually evens out. The Knicks should of won this game easily but they made too many mistakes and Amare and Wilson were locked down by the Portland D. Had the Knicks made there free throws and Stoudemire kept his turnovers down we would of won the game. Regardless, we rebounded and defended well for most of the game and for the first three games we are keeping teams from scoring over a 100 or so. We need a closer a player that can take over the game. Amare is great but when he is out of the game the only go to guy they have is chandler who I feel is better as a third option. We are much closer to being a great team then most realize. If we get Melo we will put away teams not just hang around like we did tonight.
22pts 16rbs 2stls 3blks -Wilson Chandler
Knicks 2012
Really wanted this win, like the rest of you...sadly we let it go...lets move ahead. Can't let officials decide games
Just by looking at the box score:
-Ronny Turiaf is really emerging as a good hustle player for us.
-Chandler is playing really well, grabbing boards, blocking shots...still shooting a few too many 3's, probably.
-Another solid game for Landry Fields who is doing a great job at making the most out of being like the team's #4 option scorer
-After a questionable first few games of the preseason, Felton's doing a good job at making those who questioned him look like morons.
-Blocked shots from this team are always good to find.
-Gallo. He has to be hurt, or something.
-Free throw shooting was pretty awful. 14-25 from the charity stripe is not a good number by any means.
-TO's. Amar'e had a few of these, but he certainly wasn't the only one.
-Gallo. Yes, his play really has been that bad. It's bad to the point where he might benefit from taking some time off and D'Antoni placing Chandler at SF instead...or even Fields at SF and Walker at SG since Chandler's done well off the bench so far...
The blazers had a 17-3 run in the last 2 minutes. You don't allow that to happen at home if you consider yourself a playoff team..

The story of Matt Hamill is coming to theaters across the country.
The biopic "The Hammer," a critically acclaimed film about the recently retired UFC fighter's life, is set for a limited nationwide release.
The movie (which previously was called "Hamill") debuts early later this month in 25 U.S. states and approximately 100 cities, project officials recently announced.
Most of the selected theaters will show the film during a two-day run. However, The Uptown Theatre in Utica, N.Y., has set aside five dates, the first of which is Oct. 27. The other theaters debut the film on Oct. 27 or in early November.
"The Hammer" won awards from eight major film festivals.
Hamill, who was born deaf, made his way to the UFC via the third season of "The Ultimate Fighter." The film, though, focuses largely on his early years, the close relationship he had with his grandfather, his struggles at Purdue University and ultimately his three national wrestling titles at the Rochester Institute of Technology and his personal life. But his MMA career, which included notable wins over the likes of Mark Munoz and Tito Ortiz, also is covered.
The 35-year-old Hamill (10-4 MMA, 9-4 UFC) announced his retirement in August.
Deaf actors Russell Harvard and Shoshannah Stern, as well as Raymond J. Barry, star in the film, which Oren Kaplan directed. Rich Franklin, a fellow Ohioan and infrequent training partner, has a
small part in "The Hammer" and plays the role of Hamill's Purdue coach.

WEST MELBOURNE, Fla. - West Melbourne police arrested a man who led officers from three police agencies on a chase Tuesday afternoon, but say the man is not connected to a string of burglaries in south Brevard as they had suspected.
Local 6 News partner Florida Today reports just after noon, West Melbourne and Palm Bay police were patrolling on Emerson Drive in Palm Bay when they spotted a vehicle similar in description to one seen recently and possibly connected to burglaries in the area.
Officers followed the vehicle up Interstate 95 and exited at Eau Gallie Boulevard. West Melbourne police spokesman Lt. Rich Cordeau said a West Melbourne officer tried to stop the car near John Rodes Boulevard, but the car did not yield.
The Brevard County Sheriff's helicopter was overhead and followed the suspect car to Wickham Road and south, down to Emerson Road. Initial reports were that the suspect car was speeding about 60 mph down Wickham and Minton roads.
Cordeau said the suspect car hit at least two civilian vehicles, almost hit an unmarked Palm Bay police car and rammed into a stop sign during the chase. No injuries were reported.
The suspect made it all the way to Emerson Drive and Glendale Avenue, where he bailed out of his car and fled through a canal to a home on Dallam Avenue NW. Police caught up with him there.
Cordeau said Linwood Kyle Juarez, 27, of Palm Bay, was arrested on charges of fleeing and eluding and a violation of probation. They did not find evidence to connect Juarez to the burglaries.
On Monday police chiefs from several agencies held a press conference announcing a crackdown on a trend in burglaries: at least 40 crimes committed in the same manner. The suspects in those crimes are still on the lam.

Astros make Lamothe's Draft day come true
Paralyzed pitcher selected in 40th round Wednesday
By Rowan Kavner / MLB.com
The Astros took time Wednesday to look away from their big board in the 40th round and select San Jacinto College North pitcher Buddy Lamothe, who was paralyzed in early May after a diving accident at a Texas river.
"[Area scout] Rusty Pendergrass turned him in and said, 'Hey, listen, this is a kid from a local school, and if we get to a point in the Draft to make someone's day, let's do it,'" said assistant general manager and director of scouting Bobby Heck. "From an organizational standpoint, hopefully the Astros can make somebody feel better. It puts a lot of what we do in perspective."
The pick came seven rounds after the Texas Rangers selected University of Georgia outfielder Johnathan Taylor, who was paralyzed March 6 after colliding with teammate Zach Cone in the outfield. Cone was also selected by the Rangers in this year's Draft.
San Jacinto director of communications and sports information director Amanda Booren said Lamothe has spent most of his time since the accident at Brackenridge Hospital in Austin, Texas.
Booren said Lamothe could arrive at TIRR Memorial Hermann in Houston as soon as Wednesday. It is the same rehabilitation center where Arizona Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords has been treated.
San Jacinto baseball coach Tom Arrington said it was heartwarming and admirable to see the Astros reach out and select Lamothe with the pick.
"It's a hard situation, and this is one that's very dear to my heart," Arrington said.
Lamothe held an 0.77 ERA and had 28 strikeouts in 23 1/3 innings pitched in 2011. He helped guide Lyndon Institute to the 2009 Division II State Championship.
Arrington said Lamothe had a fastball which ranged between 92-95 mph and a breaking ball in the high-80s.
"Those things are not common throughout the state or the country," he said.
Arrington said much is unknown right now regarding the future health of Lamothe, but he has faith the Vermont native will continue to get better.
People can make donations to Lamothe and his family and get updates on the young pitcher by visiting http://www.wix.com/donate4buddy/buddylamothe.
