PFT: Polamalu to have 'significant role' this week
Getty ImagesAh, the exuberance of youth.
Redskins rookie running back Alfred Morris, entering his first professional December, said he?s not worried about the rookie wall.
?I was built for this,? Morris said, via Rich Campbell of the Washington Times. ?I was made for this. It?s just the truth. I can take a lot of beating. I don?t think I?ll ever meet the rookie wall.?
He better not, because the Redskins will need him Monday against the Giants.
Morris is 18 yards short of 1,000, and needs just 81 the rest of the way to break Reggie Brooks? franchise rookie record. For a guy who was hoping to fit in wherever this year, it?s a pretty impressive achievement.
?It would mean a lot,? Morris said. ?I didn?t think I was going to even see the field until the fifth, sixth game. For that to happen would be an honor, especially with such a storied franchise. I?d be thankful and still be humble.?
He?s made adjustments to his game, notably in terms of taking care of himself. He said he never considered getting into a cold tub until since-cut veteran Tim Hightower taught him the benefits, and he?s taken other measures to keep himself ready, such as massages.
?It?s not a pleasure massage,? Morris said. ?Those things hurt, but afterwards you feel a lot better.?
That he?s still fresh has caught the eye of coaches, who never know what to expect from first-year players this time of year.
?He?s been good all year ? I think that?s been the most impressive thing about him,? offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan said. ?He has never hit a rookie wall. He runs so hard, and I have never seen him wear down at all. He keeps grinding on everything.?
One day Morris will learn how hard it actually is. But for the moment, the young legs are still carrying him.

Matt Taibbi: Election Jamie Dimon To Be Treasury Secretary Would Be 'Revolution-Provoking Decision'
Four words that would make Matt Taibbi throw up just a little? Treasury Secretary Jamie Dimon.
That's right, appointing the JPMorgan Chase CEO as Timothy Geithner's successor -- an idea backed by Warren Buffett -- is just about enough to make the Rolling Stone columnist freak, as evidenced by this tweet:
Matt Taibbi http://t.co/6Rjq8T6K if Dimon is named Treasury Sec... would be a revolution-provoking decision. Appalling that is even being considered
But of course, he's not the only one to disagree with Buffett's insistence that Dimon would be "terrific" in the role. The HuffPost's own Mark Gongloff writes:
Putting Dimon in charge of the Treasury Department would send a disturbing signal about President Obama's level of interest in financial reform. People only suspected Tim Geithner was captured by the banks he regulated. With Dimon, we would be 100 percent sure.

University of Texas at Austin
Fort Davis, Texas Astronomers have used the Hobby-Eberly Telescope at The University of Texas at Austin's McDonald Observatory to measure the mass of what may be the most massive black hole yet 17 billion Suns in galaxy NGC 1277. The unusual black hole makes up 14 percent of its galaxy's mass, rather than the usual 0.1 percent. This galaxy and several more in the same study could change theories of how black holes and galaxies form and evolve. The work will appear in the journal Nature on Nov. 29.
NGC 1277 lies 220 million light-years away in the constellation Perseus. The galaxy is only ten percent the size and mass of our own Milky Way. Despite NGC 1277's diminutive size, the black hole its heart is more than 11 times as wide as Neptune's orbit around the Sun.
"This is a really oddball galaxy," said team member Karl Gebhardt of The University of Texas at Austin. "It's almost all black hole. This could be the first object in a new class of galaxy-black hole systems." Furthermore, the most massive black holes have been seen in giant blobby galaxies called "ellipticals," but this one is seen in a relatively small lens-shaped galaxy (in astronomical jargon, a "lenticular galaxy").
The find comes out of the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Massive Galaxy Survey (MGS). The study's endgame is to better understand how black holes and galaxies form and grow together, a process that isn't well understood.
"At the moment there are three completely different mechanisms that all claim to explain the link between black hole mass and host galaxies' properties. We do not understand yet which of these theories is best," said Nature lead author Remco van den Bosch, who began this work while holding the W.J. McDonald postdoctoral fellowship at The University of Texas at Austin. He is now at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in Heidelberg, Germany.
The problem is lack of data. Astronomers know the mass of fewer than 100 black holes in galaxies. But measuring black hole masses is difficult and time-consuming. So the team developed the HET Massive Galaxy Survey to winnow down the number of galaxies that would be interesting to follow up on.
"When trying to understand anything, you always look at the extremes: the most massive and the least massive," Gebhardt said. "We chose a very large sample of the most massive galaxies in the nearby universe," to learn more about the relationship between black holes and their host galaxies.
Though still ongoing, the team has studied 700 of their 800 galaxies with HET. "This study is only possible with HET," Gebhardt said. "The telescope works best when the galaxies are spread all across the sky. This is exactly what HET was designed for."
In the current paper, the team zeroes in on the top six most massive galaxies. They found that one of those, NGC 1277, had already been photographed by Hubble Space Telescope. This provided measurements of the galaxy's brightness at different distances from its center. When combined with HET data and various models run via supercomputer, the result was a mass for the black hole of 17 billion Suns (give or take 3 billion).
"The mass of this black hole is much higher than expected," Gebhardt said, "it leads us to think that very massive galaxies have a different physical process in how their black holes grow."

'Fountain of youth' technique rejuvenates aging stem cells
ScienceDaily (Nov. 27, 2012) ? A new method of growing cardiac tissue is teaching old stem cells new tricks. The discovery, which transforms aged stem cells into cells that function like much younger ones, may one day enable scientists to grow cardiac patches for damaged or diseased hearts from a patient's own stem cells -- no matter what age the patient -- while avoiding the threat of rejection.
Stem cell therapies involving donated bone marrow stem cells run the risk of patient rejection in a portion of the population, argues Milica Radisic, Canada Research Chair in Functional Cardiovascular Tissue Engineering at the Institute of Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering (IBBME) and Associate Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry at the University of Toronto.
One method of avoiding the risk of rejection has been to use cells derived from a patient's own body. But until now, clinical trials of this kind of therapy using elderly patients' own cells have not been a viable option, since aged cells tend not to function as well as cells from young patients.
"If you want to treat these people with their own cells, how do you do this?"
It's a problem that Radisic and her co-researcher, Dr. Ren-Ke Li, think they might have an answer for: by creating the conditions for a 'fountain of youth' reaction within a tissue culture.
Li holds the Canada Research Chair in Cardiac Regeneration and is a Professor in the Division of Cardiovascular Surgery, cross-appointed to IBBME. He is also a Senior Scientist at the Toronto General Research Institute.
Radisic and Li first create a "micro-environment" that allows heart tissue to grow, with stem cells donated from elderly patients at the Toronto General Hospital.
The cell cultures are then infused with a combination of growth factors -- common factors that cause blood vessel growth and cell proliferation -- positioned in such a way within the porous scaffolding that the cells are able to be stimulated by these factors.
Dr. Li and his team then tracked the molecular changes in the tissue patch cells. "We saw certain aging factors turned off," states Li, citing the levels of two molecules in particular, p16 and RGN, which effectively turned back the clock in the cells, returning them to robust and healthy states.
"It's very exciting research," says Radisic, who was named one of the top innovators under 35 by MIT in 2008 and winner of the 2012 Young Engineers Canada award.
Li and Radisic hope to continue their goal to create the most effective environment in which cells from older patients can be given new life. "We can create much better tissues which can then be used to repair defects such as aneurysms," Li says, as well as repairing damage caused by heart attacks.
The study was recently released in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, the top journal in the field of cardiovascular medicine.

German Research Foundation grants funding for a new Research Training Group at Mainz University
Starting in October 2013, the German Research Foundation (DFG) will fund a Research Training Group for twenty-four postgraduate students based at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU). General theme of this PhD program is the concepts and ideas about man and nature. Its time span extends from the dawn of history (ca. 3200 BC) to the Middle Ages; possible relationships between concepts in cultures in contact in ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia and in ancient and medieval Europe will be studied. The DFG-funded Research Training Group is interested in establishing where and when similar beliefs and concepts relating to the creation of the world, nature and natural phenomena, man in health and disease originated, whether this happened independently, or if they were transmitted, even exchanged between early cultures. And how, and why, did they then change over time?
Under the direction of Professor Dr. Tanja Pommerening of the JGU Institute of Egyptology and Ancient Near Eastern Studies, a number of scholars at Mainz University and from outside and abroad will be involved as supervisors and experts, covering the full range of humanities as well as science in the areas under study. Approaches will be multifaceted, starting with written evidence and extending to material culture and iconography. Within each of the participating disciplines, the common research aim will be to address questions concerning the universality versus the cultural specificity of concepts, their nature, their medial construction, and their development, i.e. mechanisms of transmission, formation, instrumentalization, etc. The impact of local, temporal, genre-related, iconographical, societal, or individual factors and of continuities and discontinuities will be assessed. The results will then be compared with the evidence in other cultures that are part of the program.
"An extensive program like ours involving a number of different cultures can only be envisaged with adequate support from a number of specialists available, as is the case in Mainz," Pommerening stresses. "Among our supervisors we count of course experts for ancient languages, experts for artifacts and iconography, and, if need be, scientists, who are part of our group, will be ready to advise us. Many different fields will thus intersect in our postgraduate program, providing excellent conditions for studying the way knowledge was acquired and passed on within various ancient cultures and between them. We envisage that there will be continuous interdisciplinary exchange involving supervisors and postgraduate students alike, creating opportunities for in-depth research and, in the case of our PhD candidates, for acquiring a range of qualifications at a high level that will be difficult to match." To facilitate comparison of different cultures and periods of history, topics chosen for theses will address identical or at least similar problems and be based on comparable approaches as varied as needed.
With its large number of disciplines concerning the study of the ancient world in particular, Mainz University will guarantee an excellent space for such a postgraduate program. There are four full professors in Egyptology and Ancient Near Eastern Studies, complemented by seven more in Classics and Ancient History, and another two in Byzantine Studies and Oriental Christianity, in addition to experts in Middle High German and Medical History. The considerable number of disciplines and scholars with overlapping interests at Mainz University furthers cross-pollination, and has led to internationally recognized research for some decades now. In this context, two international conferences organized in Mainz every year, i.e., the workshops for Ancient Medicine (Arbeitskreis Alte Medizin) and for Ancient Science and its Reception (Arbeitskreis Antike Naturwissenschaften und ihre Rezeption), are widely known and will provide further opportunities for the program's postgraduates in the role of conference participants, speakers, and organizers. The program is also linked to the Rmisch-Germanisches Zentralmuseum (RGZM) in Mainz with its important laboratories and infrastructure, to the Mainz ScienceCampus: Byzantium between Orient and Occident, the JGU Research Unit Historical Cultural Sciences, the JGU Research Center of Social and Cultural Mainz (SOCUM), and the JGU Konrad Weidemann Center.
The number and variety of fields that will, in some cases, collaborate in a major way for the first time comprises philologists, archaeologists, historians, cultural anthropologists, historians of science, and scientists a spectrum of expertise and skills not found in many places. In addition, a number of scholars abroad, for instance in the United States of America, Great Britain, France, and Belgium will be available for cooperation and as hosts to PhD students from Mainz.

How To Use Online Public Relations To Promote Your Business ...
When you are starting a brand new product or business or have made remarkable changes to your present organisation using online PR is really a necessity if you need to gain exposure. It is no longer enough to simply use offline PR channels to generate knowledge about your brand or the services and products you offer because more and more individuals are using the web to do their research and buy things.
Whilst some offline PR channels will still be useful ? such as sending a press release to a newspaper or magazine ? they may not receive the same amount of coverage as they once did and this is because of the shift in media popularity and the fact that more and more people read the news on line. Even though the net may seem like a huge mass market it really is quite powerful in order to target particular individuals when making use of online public relations. This will help businesses to connect and engage more effectively with the sort of people who will be interested in their product or service.
There are many ways by which online PR campaigns can be carried out but one of the more efficiently channels that can be properly used is social media. Internet sites such as Twitter, Facebook and Google give businesses a platform to announce new product launches, special promotions and changes within the business. Status updates can be done on a daily or weekly basis and can link back to the customer?s blog or web site so that individuals can learn more details about the important products or services.
A good online PR campaign is perhaps not only about posting status updates and growing the set of people following or liking your company but it really is also about interacting. It really is this interaction which takes the most time but can be most successful in the end. By replying to those who have left comments or asked questions, organizations or their PR organizations might help to turn these enquiries into new customers.
Online public relations campaigns may be run alongside a more traditional PR campaign to maximise the reach of the advertising and encourage the business and brand to as many people as possible in the hope that will convert into increased sales.

Green economy ?will create jobs?
Business Day Live 28 November 2012.
TRADE and Industry Minister Rob Davies told a ?manufacturing opportunities? conference in Pretoria on Tuesday new energy efficiency regulations for building were an opportunity for industrial development and job creation in South Africa.
The country needed to meet its climate change obligations, reducing carbon emissions 34% in 2020 and 42% in 2025.
For this to happen it was ?imperative? for South Africans to save energy, he said.
The new regulations were published in the Government Gazette in June 2010, and supported the Department of Trade and Industry?s industrial policy action plan and government?s energy strategy.
Regulations include the installation of ?smart meters?, solar-heated water systems, energy efficient air-conditioning, ?green architecture?, new insulation standards, low energy lighting, low-flow taps and glass with thermal properties?

3 Steps to a More Secure Password - Legal Productivity
Your email, social media, bank accounts, credit cards, online stores and so much more are all protected by passwords. Secure, hard-to-hack passwords help to keep your digital life safe from hacking eyes. Here are 3 steps to ramp up your password security.
1. Use a unique email address for passwords only ? Forget your password? No problem, simply enter your email address and the site will send you instructions to reset your password. Of course, if a hacker knows your email address from your website, social networks or information gathering sites, they attack that address and use it to easily access your other password protected sites. Instead create a unique, secure email address for password recovery only.
2. Provide extended answers to security questions ? Another way to retrieve your password is to answer a series of questions, like the city of your birth, your mother?s maiden name (NEVER give this out), or your first pet. This, of course, is easy to crack for people that know you or have access to your history. Instead, give descriptive, but memorable answers. Like ?Chocolate Max? for your dark brown Terrier, or ?Hot and Steamy Rio? for your city of birth. Or choose one unique word or phrase and add it to all of your answers, like ?The Beatles Max?, or ?The Beatles Rio?.
3. A phrase is better than an alpha-numeric password ? The most common passwords are ?password? and ?123456?. You won?t of course, use those, but even that @w3s0me password that you created is not so awesome. Software tools can crack them. Instead, use a phrase, like ?Awes0me Ch33zeburger?.
Bonus tip: Use a unique password for each site, even if it?s the same phrase followed by a unique identifier for each login. This will lessen the damage should one password be compromised.

Climate change and increasing resilience
Alexandria, VA Considered individually, 2012's record high temperatures, droughts, wildfires, storms and diminished snowpack are not necessarily alarming.

Climate change and increasing resilience
Alexandria, VA Considered individually, 2012's record high temperatures, droughts, wildfires, storms and diminished snowpack are not necessarily alarming. But combined, the fact that the first seven months of 2012 were hotter than the hottest on record, more than half of the U.S. counties were declared disaster areas due to drought, and the snowpacks were at all-time lows, these indicators are much more significant from a climate standpoint. Two questions then remain: Will we see the same thing in 2013? And how do we increase our ability to weather the storms and other disasters coming our way in the future?

GOP blocks bill to give hunters more land access
WASHINGTON (AP) ? A wide-ranging bill to give hunters and fishermen more access to public lands stalled in the Senate Monday after Republicans said it spends too much money.
Republicans supported opening lands for outdoorsmen and many other provisions in the bill sponsored by Democratic Sen. Jon Tester, but GOP senators blocked the legislation on principle Monday evening in a mostly party-line procedural vote after Senate Budget Committee's top Republican, Jeff Sessions of Alabama, objected to spending on conservation programs included in the bill.
The sportsmen's bill would increase land access and allow hunters to bring home as trophies 41 polar bears killed in Canada before the government started protecting polar bears as a threatened species. The legislation would also exclude ammunition and tackle from federal environmental laws that regulate lead, allow bow hunters to cross federal land where hunting isn't allowed, encourage federal land agencies to help states maintain shooting ranges, boost fish populations and protect animal habitat.
Sessions said he supported the overall bill but objected to spending on conservation programs that he said violated budget rules. Democrats argued that the bill also raised money for those provisions.
The bill also faced some objections from environmental groups over the polar bear imports and exclusions from lead standards.
The lead provision threatens public health and the measures "could set back wildlife conservation efforts," said California Sen. Barbara Boxer, the Democratic chairwoman of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, while acknowledging she supported other provisions in the bill. Boxer was the only Democrat to vote against moving the bill forward Monday.
Ammunition and tackle that contain lead are now unregulated under federal toxic substance laws, and the EPA has so far declined to regulate them. The bill would make it law that the Environmental Protection Agency could not regulate ammunition and tackle, leaving those decisions to states. Environmental groups opposing the exemption say that birds on land and water are killed by lead poisoning after eating the spent ammunition and fishing tackle.
The polar bear provision would allow the hunters ? two from Tester's home state of Montana ? who killed polar bears in Canada just before a 2008 ban on polar bear trophy imports took effect ? to bring the bears' bodies across the border. The hunters involved were not able to bring the trophies home before the Fish and Wildlife Service listed them as a threatened species.
Some animal welfare groups, including of The Humane Society of the United States, say that allowing the polar bears bodies across the border could set a bad precedent and embolden other hunters to try and circumvent threatened or endangered species laws.

Of bargains: grand and not so much
Bargaining is a big part of life. It is how prices are set, business deals get made, and political differences are hashed out. Sometimes you get the advantage, sometimes not -- and often it's the bargain itself that's memorable.
A rug merchant waits for customers at the Mecca market in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

EnlargeA?hot wind blew off the Red Sea. Along with a dozen other reporters, I was camped out in an air-conditioned foyer at a royal palace in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, waiting for the Saudi foreign minister and the US secretary of State to emerge from crisis meetings in the weeks before the 1991 Gulf War. Hours ticked by. Reporters dozed. Somewhere near dawn, our Saudi handlers ushered in a rug merchant to distract us with his goods.

I was a tough but seasoned bargainer, tossing out the word ?soumak? when he unrolled a flat-woven rug. Not to be taken for a rube, I began decisively, cutting the offering price of the tribal textile in half, all the while staying cordial with my new ?friend.? I knew when to act miffed, when to say I could go no higher, and when to give ground.
?Mabrouk,? the merchant said, pumping my hand as we finally closed the deal. ?Congratulations, sir. You bargain well and have excellent taste.?
I got my prize, plus a small brass coffeepot ? and something even better: a great story. Robin, my wife and artistic director, had taught me to look for that tribal rug design. I had watched her 10 years earlier drive a hard bargain in the Hamidiya souk of Damascus, so this would be an excellent ?Hi, honey, I?m home!? trophy. I could see my carefully acquired soumak spread out under the coffee table.
One day, I imagined, someone might ask the intrepid foreign correspondent if there was a story behind that rug. Well, yes,
?ha-ha, now that you ask: A hot wind blew off the Red Sea....
Some weeks later, I unpacked my bags, and Robin examined the rug. She seemed to admire the style. I told her about the negotiations, the back-and-forth drama, and the hearty ?Mabrouk? that sealed the deal.
?Nice to have you home, dear,? she said.
The rug was placed under the table. A few days later, somebody spilled a tumbler of water on it. The colors ran, burgundy flowing into beige, brown into ochre. The wool puckered, and forever afterward the not-so-valuable and certainly-not-old dust catcher was known as ?John?s famous mabrouk soumak.?
Our dogs enjoyed it. Goodwill eventually accepted it.
The larger point? Negotiations are tricky. Prices and values are not objective facts but markers of give and take, set by us when we engage with each other. When we negotiate, we know our starting position but cannot dictate the outcome.
Congress and the president of the United States are engaged in an epic negotiating session to try to figure out how much government should spend and tax and how to avoid plunging off the Jan. 1 ?fiscal cliff.? The Monitor?s David Grant has dug deeply into the issues and explained them clearly and calmly in a recent Monitor cover story.?
Psychologists say that when you are negotiating, the important thing is to clearly articulate what you want, remain open-minded and genial, and be ready to make a deal. You may not get what you thought you wanted, but you don?t get anything by refusing to bargain. I wanted an impressive trophy. I got something that has lasted much longer: a story.

Guest Post: Currency Wars: Trading The Driver$ | ZeroHedge
Submitted by Gordon T. Long of GordonTLong.com,
Since September, the Currency Wars have escalated. It isn't just because of the seminal monetary events of the Federal Reserve's QE III "unlimited" and the ECB's OMT "Uncapped". It is more likely about the fact that China announced its eleventh agreement that effectively bypasses using the US dollar with China's strategic trading partners. The latest agreement with Russia places trading oil, in non-US dollars, into the spotlight. The infamous petrodollar has had its destructive profile raised.
The Petrodollar has long been the cornerstone that solidified the US dollar as the key currency reserve holding. The Petrodollar strategy is arguably more important that the Bretton Woods agreement which officially made the US dollar the world's reserve currency at the end of WW II. This is now being called into question. Minimally, it suggests a weakened requirement for holdings of the current levels of US dollars in sovereign reserve accounts.
For the sake of space I won't lay out all the details of this but instead refer you to two recent video releases I have produced and participated in on the subject.
Currency Wars: The Failing Petro$$ Strategy
Triffin's Paradox & the Rule of Law
What is important to Traders is what it means to your trading strategy in the short to intermediate term. To Investors it has profound longer term consequences.
To determine short term effects, we first need to understand the relationship of the drivers involved. The three critical currency relationships near term are the US$, the ? and the ?. Then we need to understand how they will effect US Treasury yields.
First however it is important to understand the controlling mechanism of global fiat currencies.

Elton John dedicates Beijing show to dissident
BEIJING (AP) ? Pop icon Elton John publicly dedicated his only concert in Beijing to Chinese artist and political critic Ai Weiwei, sending a murmur of shock through an audience accustomed to tight censorship of entertainment.
Minutes into a more than two-hour show Sunday night, John told the audience that the performance was dedicated "to the spirit and talent of Ai Weiwei," according to several audience members. They said the crowd rumbled in recognition that Ai remains a touchy subject for the Chinese government.
An internationally acclaimed sculptor and installation artist, Ai has used his art and his renown to draw attention to social injustice. He was detained for nearly three months last year, and he remains barred from leaving China.
Ai and John met each other briefly on Sunday before the concert. "I super like him," Ai said on his feed on Twitter, which is banned in China but on which he has 180,000 followers.
China-based online media sites reported on John's Beijing show, as they did on a Friday night performance in Shanghai, but they did not report John's remark about Ai.
The Chinese government exercises tight control of live performances, requiring artists to submit detailed lists of songs, casts and crew members before approval is given. Censors further tightened scrutiny after singer Bjork shouted "Tibet, Tibet" at the close of a song titled "Declare Independence" at a Shanghai performance in 2008.

Column: OK, SEC haters, time to resume griping
ATHENS, Ga. (AP) ? OK, all you SEC haters.
Time to get revved up again.
The league that everyone outside the South loves to despise has staked out its usual place in the championship hierarchy after Super Saturday, a coast-to-coast buffet of college football's greatest rivalries.
Either Alabama or Georgia is assured of playing for the national title.
And the Southeastern Conference even had a backup plan, the Florida Gators, ready to step in if top-ranked Notre Dame faltered in the last big game of the day against Southern Cal.
Sound familiar?
Just last year, Alabama defeated LSU in an All-SEC matchup for the BCS championship.
No matter what, the conference will have at least one representative in the final game of the year, and rest assured that either No. 2 Alabama or No. 3 Georgia would be a solid favorite to beat the Fighting Irish and give the SEC its seventh straight national title.
The Crimson Tide cruised into the SEC championship game on a high after thumping Auburn 49-0 in the Mismatch Bowl (sorry, the Iron Bowl moniker just doesn't fit at the moment), surely bringing the Gene Chizik era to an inglorious end just two years after he guided the Tigers to a national championships.
Georgia will be waiting in Atlanta as the East Division winner for the second year in a row, finishing off its regular season with a 42-10 blowout of Georgia Tech. The Bulldogs are our Comeback Team of the Year, somehow finding a way to get back in the mix after taking a four-touchdown whipping at South Carolina.
"The chance to win our league at the end of the year is huge. That means a lot to us," Georgia coach Mark Richt said. "What happens beyond that, of course, will be decided by the voters and all those kind of things. But it does look like the winner of that (SEC title) game ... more than likely will end up playing for the national championship. So that's exciting to think about."
Before the rest of the nation could blurt out, "not again," Florida positioned itself in the scavenger position with a 37-26 triumph over Florida State. The Seminoles were hoping to follow the Alabama Plan, Version 2.011, by earning a shot in the Jan. 7 title game in Miami even though it lost out to Georgia in its own division.
The Gators were fourth in the BCS standings a week ago and did nothing to hurt their position, stunning the Seminoles and the crowd in Tallahassee with a 24-point outburst in the fourth quarter. As soon as that one ended, coach Will Muschamp and his players headed off to root for the Trojans, hoping they could take down Notre Dame.
Oregon was the only other team with a shot, but the Ducks are likely to remain stuck behind the three SEC teams, even after an impressive 48-24 win over Oregon State in that state's version of the Civil War.
Hard to believe, but the SEC seemed down and out just a couple of weeks ago. Alabama was knocked off by conference newcomer Texas A&M in Tuscaloosa, leaving three non-SEC teams ? Oregon, Kansas State and Notre Dame ? in the lead positions.
Three-fourths of the nation rejoiced.
Its long, Dixie-induced nightmare seemed over.
Of course, everything flipped again seven days later.
Oregon lost. Kansas State lost. Just like that, Alabama and Georgia were right back in the prime positions.
The Tide and the Bulldogs closed the deal Saturday against overmatched opponents, proving once again the SEC has, if nothing else, an impeccable sense of timing. Outside of Notre Dame, every team in the mix had one loss. But Oregon and Kansas State lost last, so they get shortchanged.
Ohio State might have messed things up, finishing off a 12-0 debut season for coach Urban Meyer with a victory over Michigan. But the Buckeyes are on NCAA probation because of Tattoo-gate, the championship dreams pushed off into the future by some shady ink. They look like the sort of program that can challenge the SEC's dominance, but not this year.
Maybe the new four-team playoff will even things up a bit. Surely, it can't hurt, because the SEC clearly has this system all figured out.
"I knew the way the SEC works," Georgia defensive back Sanders Commings said, savoring the big win over the Yellow Jackets in the locker room beneath Sanford Stadium. "I knew we could beat everybody else on our schedule. I was like, 'Man, we've just got to win out.'"
There will be those who say the SEC is living on its reputation, that the league isn't nearly as strong from top-to-bottom this season as it's been in other years. That's a pretty compelling argument, too. Neither Auburn nor Kentucky won an SEC game. Kentucky, Tennessee and Arkansas are looking for new coaches, and Auburn will surely be joining the list of schools with a vacancy.
But, for those at the top, there's another chance to play for a national title.
For the rest of the nation, that playoff system can't get here fast enough.
