NFL Playoff Picture Week 17
Playoff Picture: http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/standings/playoffrace/scenarios--------------- Already in: AFC: Indianapolis(#1 seed, AFC South), San Diego(#2 seed, AFC West), New England(AFC East), Cincinnati(AFC North) NFC: New Orleans(#1 seed, NFC South), Minnesota(NFC North), Philadelphia(at least wild card), Arizona(NFC West), Green Bay(wild card), Dallas(at least wild card) --------------- Win and in: NY Jets and Baltimore --------------- Win and need help: Denver: This could cause head explosions. There are 5 different scenarios where the Broncos are in with a win and a combination of losses or ties by the Jets, Ravens, and Steelers and even a Texans win in 2 of them. There are also 5 different scenarios where the Broncos are in with a loss and combinations of losses by the Steelers, Jets, Jaguars, Texans, Ravens, and Dolphins(only 1) Houston is in with a win and losses or ties by two of these three teams: Jets, Ravens, and Broncos. Pittsburgh is in with a win and losses or ties by either combination of the Texans and Jets, Texans and Ravens, or the Jets, Ravens, and Broncos. Miami is in with a win and losses by the Jets, Ravens, Texans, and Jaguars. Jacksonville is in with a win and 5 different combinations of losses by the Steelers, Texans, Jets, Ravens, and Broncos. ---------------- Win and improve position: The winner of Philadelphia-Dallas wins the NFC East. Philadelphia also clinches the NFC #2 seed by winning. If Dallas wins, they would clinch the #2 seed with losses by Minnesota and Arizona. Minnesota clinches the #2 seed with a win and a Philadelphia loss. Arizona clinches the #2 seed with a win and losses by the Eagles and Vikings. ---------------- Eliminated from contention: Tampa Bay, St. Louis, Cleveland, Detroit(Week 12); Washington, Kansas City(Week 13); Oakland, Chicago(Week 14); Atlanta, Carolina, Seattle, Buffalo, San Francisco(Week 15); Tennessee, NY Giants(Week 16) St. Louis would now have the #1 pick in the 2010 Draft if the season ended now based on current standings(not counting the rest of their schedule). The only other team that can possibly catch the Rams for the #1 pick if the Rams win and based on what happens Sunday is Detroit. |

Timing of Jan. 17 and 24 playoff games
Any chance that, because the 18th is MLK Day, the games on the 17th will be 3 and 6:30 ET and the ones on the 24th (NFC and AFC title games) will be 1 and 4:30? (In past years, IIRC, the NFC and AFC title games were played at 3 and 6:30 on the day before MLK Day.) |

Mike Celizic may not have cut Jason Mraz's hair...
But he did steal his hatHighlights: - Ignores that when the article was written, the Giants were an also-ran in the NFC who needed a lot of help to sneak into the playoffs. - Mentions how absurb Quarterback rating is, but then points out Eli's ranking relative to other (non-MVP) quarterbacks. - Equates his (bad) contract to not only ask if he should be the best quarterback in the league, but uses that to justify his value to the Giants. - Admits Eli's not as good as Peyton. Also that Peyton is better recognized because Eli is 4-3 in the playoffs. - Eli might be the greatest quarterback in Giants' history. Which should shoot Kurt Warner and Phil Simms Hall of Fame chances to hell if they ever had any. Fran Tarkenton is about to go on Minneapolis radio to debase Eli as I write this I'm sure. - Mentions that he has as many rings as Peyton and Favre, but ignores that he has as many as Trent Dilfer, Jim McMahon and Jeff Hostetler. You'd think that he'd wait at least until Eli didn't lay an egg today to write this column, but it's not likely that Mark Sanchez could be gifted a win over the Colts, could he? |

Scramble for the Atmosphere
The useless, destructive talks at Copenhagen show that the treaty-making system has scarcely changed in 130 years. ... Watching this stupid summit via webcam (I wasn’t allowed in either), it strikes me that the treaty-making system has scarcely changed in 130 years. There’s a wider range of faces, fewer handlebar moustaches, frock coats or pickelhaubes, but otherwise, as the world’s governments try to decide how to carve up the atmosphere, they might have been attending the Conference of Berlin. It’s as if democratisation and the flowering of civil society, advocacy and self-determination had never happened. Governments, whether elected or not, without reference to their own citizens let alone those of other nations, assert their right to draw lines across the global commons and decide who gets what. This is a scramble for the atmosphere comparable in style and intent to the scramble for Africa. At no point has the injustice at the heart of multilateralism been addressed or even acknowledged: the interests of states and the interests of the world’s people are not the same. Often they are diametrically opposed. In this case, most rich and rapidly developing states have sought through these talks to seize as great a chunk of the atmosphere for themselves as they can – to grab bigger rights to pollute than their competitors. The process couldn’t have been better designed to produce the wrong results. I have spent most of my time at the Klimaforum: the alternative conference set up by just four paid staff, which 50,000 people attended without a hitch. (I know which team I would put in charge of saving the planet.) There the barrister Polly Higgins laid out a different approach. Her declaration of planetary rights invests ecosystems with similar legal safeguards to those won by humans after the second world war(2). It changes the legal relationship between humans, the atmosphere and the biosphere from ownership to stewardship. It creates a global framework for negotiation which gives nation states less discretion to dispose of ecosystems and the people who depend on them. Even before this new farce began it was starting to look as if it might be too late to prevent two or more degrees of global warming. The nation states, pursuing their own interests, have each been passing the parcel of responsibility since they decided to take action in 1992. |

Or maybe it's a party hat
 Carelessly left behind by a Bacchanalian reveler, this headdress allowed a celebrant to assume the role of Cernunnos, or some other local permutation of the Horned God. The holly leaves--sacred to the Druids--symbolize the promise of life within the living death of winter, and the bells keep away evil spirits. The green of the antlers echoes the evergreen plants in the holy wood, while the red represents the blood of Christian children sacrificed for Saturnalia. |

The proverbial:
I am probably far from the first to think of this, but who knows, maybe it has not been posted too much:  I actually don't know if this is a proverb outside of the US (or even for all age groups in the US), or outside the English speaking world, but trust me, this is funny. |

What IS a superstar?
Hi, all! Well, I figured that since I find interesting objects on a regular basis, I ought to join this community. So I set up an account for this express purpose! In my town, there is a store called East Bay Depot, which sells all kinds of craft materials and unwanted objects, from buttons to toilet paper tubes to old textbooks. Oh yeah, and perhaps most importantly, discarded art! I just picked up this lovely number today for $1.65:  The writing at the top/ bottom says, "hey joe/ take a walk on the wild side", and the writing coming out of the Marilyn Monroe heads says, "what is a superstar". This is going to make an excellent Xmas gift! Current Music: Joy Electric--Synthesized I Want You Synthesized |
