While they are the most popular team in the NFL nation-wide, they are also one of if not the most criticized teams in the NFL. Yesterday morning, on Monday, June 13th, Ethan Bird of WTOK-TV in Meridian, Miss. had the perfect opportunity to roast the Dallas Cowboys, and he didn't miss out on that opportunity. Here's what Bird said: "Now we look at our 10-day forecast, it's looking a little bit like those Dallas Cowboys, it's peaking in the 90's." Cowboys fans catching strays during a weather report. This is cruel. <br><br>(via )Cowboys fans catching strays during a weather report. This is cruel. (via ) The Dallas Cowboys are one of the most successful franchises of all-time, with most of their success coming in the decade of the 1990's. Since then, they haven't had much success and since 1997, the Cowboys have only won three playoff games. Dallas' popularity rose when they became the "Team with Most Consecutive Sold-Out Games," a streak of 160 home-and-away games (including playoffs) that began on December 23, 1990, at Philadelphia's Veterans Stadium and came to an end on December 24, 1999, in a Christmas Eve game against the New Orleans Saints. <h2>The Dallas Cowboys won three Super Bowls in the 1990s</h2> Super Bowl LI - New England Patriots v Atlanta Falcons They really were America's Team in the 90s.

They will come into 2022 with every hope of retaining the NFC East and this time make a real statement in the playoffs. It seems that the only way to silence their many critics would be to win another Super Bowl. NFL Injuries: Find out about ? Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!

Thanks to the convenience offered by portable data connections, it’s now a snap to keep abreast of current events by downloading a news app to your favorite iOS device.<br /> Although identifying “the Best News Apps for iPhones and iPads” is extremely subjective — when it comes to reading on a digital device, my idea of “tiny text” might your “pixel perfect” size — we’ve come up with a great list of the top iOS apps for news junkies.

News and notes from Nashville

News and notes from Nashville

News and notes from Nashville NCAA.com <h3> CHAMPS</h3> PRESENTED BY NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- With Connecticut, Notre Dame, Stanford and Maryland descending on the Music City for the Final Four, here is a look at what to keep an eye when the games tip off on Sunday evening. Still perfect: It’s hard not to look ahead and see to what could await on Tuesday if both Connecticut and Notre Dame win on Sunday -- the first NCAA tournament matchup between two schools with unblemished records. The Huskies blazed through their first year in the AAC, while Notre Dame remained perfect through its first year in the ACC. The Irish handed UConn its most recent loss, when both squads were in the Big East and Notre Dame won the conference championship game, a 61-59 victory on March 12, 2013, in Hartford, Conn. The Huskies rebounded from that to win to roll off 44 in a row, all of which have come by double digits. UConn is in its seventh consecutive Final Four, while Notre Dame is in its fourth. 2014 WOMEN'S BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT Farnum: Vander Voort: Farnum: Vander Voort: Notes: Farnum: Vander Voort: Vander Voort: Farnum: Farnum: Vander Voort: Farnum: Vander Voort: Farnum: Vander Voort: Lopresti: Vander Voort: Familiarity: Both Final Four games are repeats of matchups from the regular season. In the second game of the season for both teams, Connecticut cruised past Stanford on Nov. 11. Bria Hartley led the Huskies with 20 points, and Stanford’s Amber Orrange led all scorers with 22 -- making for one of just two games all season that All-American Chiney Ogwumike was not the highest scorer for the Cardinal. Ogwumike finished with 16 points and 13 rebounds in a game that had headlines more dominated by an injury for UConn forward Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis, which kept her sidelined for eight games. Neither coach put much stock in the outcome of that game though, as both have seen plenty of growth and change in their own and the opposing teams since then. “If anybody thinks, well, yeah, we're going to play the same Stanford team that we played in November, they're kidding,” UConn head coach Geno Auriemma said. The familiarity between the two programs goes back further than this past season -- they have face each other in three of the past seven Final Fours as well as the 2010 national championship game. Notre Dame and Maryland also faced off once in their only season as conference foes, with the Terrapins heading to the Big Ten next year. Irish guard Jewell Loyd set a career high with 31 points as the they held off a Maryland comeback to win 87-83 on the road. Notre Dame bolted out to a 41-19 lead only for Maryland to take a 64-63 advantage with 10 minutes left. Alyssa Thomas contributed 29 points and 12 rebounds in the loss for the Terps. A big loss: The celebration was more subdued usual when Notre Dame reached the Final Four on Monday, with what appeared to be a severe injury to a significant team leader, senior forward Natalie Achonwa. The next day it was confirmed that her career was done with a torn ACL, making a hit of 14.9 points and 7.7 rebounds per game in Notre Dame’s production. “Natalie Achonwa sets the tone for our team in everything that we do,” Irish head coach Muffet McGraw said. “She's been the vocal leader for our team. When she went down on the floor and before she even left for the locker room, she bounced back up and went after the team and really gave them a very spirited talk and encouragement to finish that game. I think she set the tone right then.” Fellow senior Kayla McBride said while losing a player like Achonwa is a big hit, the cohesiveness and leadership the team has will not allow for lowered confidence heading into the Final Four. “We know the expectations are still the same, regardless,” McBride said. “I think we’ve come together and we’re stronger than ever.” Star power: Four of the five AP All-Americans are represented in the Final Four, with each team featuring one. Stanford’s Chiney Ogwumike and Connecticut’s Breanna Stewart were both unanimous selections, with Notre Dame’s Kayla McBride and Maryland’s Alyssa Thomas also named to the team. The only player on the first team not playing in Nashville is Odyssey Sims, whose Baylor squad was knocked out by Notre Dame in the regional final. By the numbers: 1 Stanford senior Chiney Ogwumike is the only player in the country to rank in the top 10 nationally in scoring (26.4 ppg), rebounding (12.1 rpg), field-goal percentage (60.4) and double-doubles (26) entering the Final Four. 5 For the fifth time in six Final Four appearances, Notre Dame is playing a conference opponent in the national semifinals. The Fighting Irish played former Big East rival Connecticut in 2001, '11, '12 and '13, going 3-1 in those games. The lone exception came in Notre Dame’s first Final Four appearance in 1997, when it faced Tennessee and fell 80-66. 6 UConn enters the Final Four with an unblemished record for the sixth time in school history. The Huskies have posted four undefeated national championship seasons (1994-95, 2001-02, '08-09 and '09-10). 12 Each of the four head coaches in this year’s Final Four have won at least one NCAA championship. In fact, they have 12 titles between them. UConn’s Geno Auriemma leads with an NCAA record eight trophies (1995, 2000, ‘02, ‘03, ‘04, ‘09, ‘10, ‘13), followed by Stanford’s Tar VanDerveer with two (‘90, ’92). Notre Dame’s Muffet McGraw (’01) and Maryland’s Brenda Frese (’06) each have one. 36 Notre Dame’s current school-record winning streak topped 30-game run, and it’s also the longest winning streak by any Fighting Irish team (regardless of sport) since World War II, passing the performance of the 2001 Notre Dame softball team (33) and putting this year’s women’s basketball team nearly on par with Frank Leahy’s legendary Notre Dame football teams from 1946-50 (39-game unbeaten streak -- 37-0-2 record that included three national championships). 66 Maryland senior Alyssa Thomas has posted a school-record 66 double-doubles in her career and is one of only four players in NCAA history with six triple-doubles, her most recent against Florida State on Feb. 20. Thomas, three-time ACC player of the year, lit the Seminoles up for 22 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists. Quick Hits: • Sunday’s matchup between Stanford and Connecticut will mark the fifth time that the schools will clash at the Final Four. Only UConn and Tennessee have met more times (6).<br /> • Notre Dame, the NCAA leader in scoring offense with 86.8 points per game, has netted at least 80 points in all four NCAA tournament contests this season -- the first time the Irish have accomplished the feat.<br /> • Maryland is one of the most dominant rebounding teams in the country, out-grabbing its opponents 1,468 to 1,076 on the season. The Terrapins rank third nationally with a +11.5 rebounding margin this year. <h3> Jesse Mendez leads a freshmen wave in wrestling&#039 s opening weekend</h3> Ohio State&#039;s Jesse Mendez made his college debut and took out two-time All-American Lucas Byrd of Illinois in the finals of the Michigan State Open. <h3>Maryland volleyball upsets No 9 Purdue with 3-0 road sweep</h3> Maryland got a historic victory with a 3-0 sweep of the No. 9 ranked Purdue Boilermakers on the road.

Newsum-Schoenberg leads Emory past Florida Southern NCAA.com <h3> CHAMPS</h3> <h2>In Case You Missed It</h2> <h2>In Case You Missed It</h2> <h3>Don&#039 t miss it</h3> LAKELAND, Fla. -- Emory, the top-ranked team in Division III, combined to win 11 of the 14 events Friday, led by three individual victories from McKenna Newsum-Schoenberg, in defeating Florida Southern, the fourth-ranked team in DII, 195-67. Newsum-Schoenberg won the 200-yard butterfly in a "B" cut time 2:07.81, in addition to victories in the 1,000-yard freestyle and 500-yard freestyle. Annelise Kowalsky added a pair of event victories, winning both the 100-yard breaststroke and 200-yard individual medley.<br><br>The Eagles' final "B" cut time of the meet came from Elizabeth Aronoff, who notched a time of 2:24.07 in the 200-yard breaststroke. Other individual first-place finishes for the Eagles came from Marissa Bergh in the 200-yard freestyle, Marcela Sanchez-Aizcorbe in the 100-yard butterfly, and Dana Holt and Kristine Rosenberger, who each tied for first in the 50-yard freestyle.<br><br>Emory also swept the two relays on Friday, opening the meet with a win from Ellie Thompson, Kowalsky, Rosenberger and Nancy Larson in the 200-yard medley relay and closing it with a victory in the 200-yard freestyle from Jennifer Pak, MacKenzie Brosnahan, Rosenberger and Holt. For Florida Southern, Lauren Reynolds added two more backstroke wins to her victory total, and Kelsey Gouge won the 100-yard freestyle. Friday’s result ended the Moccasins’ school-record dual-meet winning streak at nine, but Reynolds extended her own personal winning streak in the backstroke to 10. She won both the 100 and 200 on Friday, beating out Emory’s Ellie Thompson each time. Reynolds has now won the 100-yard backstroke five times this season, and the 200 four times. In the 100-backstroke, Thompson came into the meet with a slightly faster season-best time than Reynolds, but Reynolds edged her out by three one-hundredths of a second. In the 200-yard race, it was Reynolds who entered with the better time this season, and she ended up with another win by finishing 0.97 seconds ahead of Thompson. Gouge picked up her fourth consecutive win in the 100-yard freestyle with a time of 52.90 seconds that was 0.17 off an NCAA “B” qualifying time. She had already reached a “B” standard earlier this year, and her time on Friday was still strong enough to win the 100-freestyle by three-tenths of a second against Emory’s Nancy Larson. The Eagles started the meet by winning the first three races, though Florida Southern did get a second-place showing from Heather Burns in the 1,000-yard freestyle, and another second-place finish from Alli Crenshaw in the 200-yard freestyle. The latter race also saw Cassie Ley finish third in her first 200-freestyle of the season, and Burns finish fourth, making it Florida Southern’s best race of the day. The Moccasins also got third-place finishes from Gouge in the 100-yard breaststroke and the 200-yard individual medley, and Crenshaw in the 500-yard freestyle. Gouge was competing in the 200-IM for the first time this year, but her time of 2:12.01 has been topped only three times by a Moccasin swimmer this year, including twice by Ley. The Moccasins are now 4-1 in dual meets this season, while the Eagles improved to 3-2.

Newspaper Columnist Al Martinez on Resurgence After 65 AARP The Magazine

Newspaper Columnist Al Martinez on Resurgence After 65 AARP The Magazine

Newspaper Columnist Al Martinez on Resurgence After 65 - AARP The Magazine &nbsp; <h1>My Wonder Years</h1> <h2>Newspaper columnist Al Martinez on his great post-65 resurgence</h2> <h2>Meet Al Martinez</h2> Al Martinez, 80, is a Pulitzer Prize – winning journalist and author with a dozen books to his credit. He now writes twice-weekly columns for the Los Angeles Daily News. Time stretched out before me like the track of a race waiting to be run, and I was ready to run it. I would continue working as a newspaper columnist for another 15 years, during which I underwent two open-heart surgeries, but this didn't stop me from fulfilling ambitions I had hosted for many years. At 65, both my wife and I realized that even though the average life span had been extended, it didn't go on forever. We knew, for instance, that if we were ever going to undertake serious travel, we had better get going. is hard in a lot of ways, and we were still in good enough shape to haul our luggage around, do a lot of walking, and endure the long flights required to get us wherever we were headed. Unless you are independently wealthy, which we are not, travel requires an astute realization that you need money. What we had been saving for a rainy day became our travel fund. It was the key to our resurgence. We had already been on an organized tour to Europe that involved quick stops in London, Paris and Rome, but all that did was whet our appetites for more. Our first post-65 trip was to Africa, and our most recent journey was to India. In between there were monthlong visits to Russia, China and Greece, soaking up the lore of ancient cities of the world, whose histories trail back to the beginnings of civilization. We also trekked through the rain forests of Panama and moved through the canal that changed the nature of marine transportation; we lazed in the sun on the island of Aruba and returned to London, Paris and Rome to explore them more closely. The revival of our energy and goals also included my strong desire to write a novel. I'd already published 11 nonfiction books, but there were the last days of a dying newspaper that yearned to be fictionalized. So I went to it, obtained a contract from St. Martin's Press and two years later The Last City Room was in bookstores. At age 80 the resurgence continues. Retiring from one newspaper, I answered the call of another and am writing two columns a week again. In addition, I created and conduct a local writers workshop and have begun writing two more books. Will I ever stop? In time, everything stops, but meanwhile, take it from me: It doesn't stop at 65. <h2>Related</h2> Cancel You are leaving AARP.org and going to the website of our trusted provider.

Newsmaker Photographer Editta Sherman s Memories of Carnegie Hall Stu

Newsmaker Photographer Editta Sherman s Memories of Carnegie Hall Stu

Newsmaker, Photographer Editta Sherman's Memories of Carnegie Hall Stu... &nbsp; <h1>Memories of a Home in Carnegie Hall</h1> <h2>Photographer Editta Sherman 98 reluctantly gives up her longtime studio apartment to make way for expansion at the New York landmark</h2> For Editta Sherman, living and laboring in New York's was a dream come true. The 98-year-old photographer, who has snapped a host of celebrities, fit in with the cadre of artists in the landmark building's spacious loft apartments, where high ceilings inspired many to greater heights. Starting in 1949, Sherman made Studio 1208 her home and creative space, which she adored in a rent-controlled place. A few years ago, Carnegie Hall decided to expand and renovate. The tenants fought long and hard to stay, but eventually had to vacate. Sherman, known as the Duchess of Carnegie Hall, recently settled for an undisclosed sum, and now the conversion of remaining studios into music and art classrooms will proceed. Moving can be unsettling at any age, but even more so when you're nearing 100. This past summer, around her birthday in July, Sherman began the big transition. For six subsequent weeks, she went back and forth, archiving stacks and stacks of her work. That prized portfolio includes portraits of Leonard Bernstein, , , , , , and hundreds of other luminaries, preserved with her gigantic century-old Eastman camera on a stand. Some of the black-and-white images hang in Sherman's current apartment, furnished with the antique sofa and armchairs from her studio. Peering through the large windows that overlook Central Park, she sees bright yellow taxis steam by and hears horses clip-clop as people embark on carriage rides. &quot;But,&quot; she laments, &quot;I'm not happy here.&quot; A home like no other What she wants is a working photography studio so she can continue her business, says Melisande Sherman, 67, of Staten Island, N.Y., the youngest of Editta's five children, four of whom are alive. That would be a room not only with a view, but also with 12-foot ceilings and great natural lighting for taking photographs, like the one she had. &quot;Her art is her identity,&quot; her daughter says. Philanthropist Andrew Carnegie had envisioned the studios for artists of all sorts — from painters to dancers to violinmakers. They took up residence above the concert hall, where classical composers, jazz legends, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and many more took the stage. Back in the '40s, the Philadelphia-born Editta was a young wife and mother who came across an ad that promoted inhabiting Carnegie Hall day and night. Hmm, she thought, &quot;What kind of a place is that — to work and live in a concert hall?&quot; Her husband, Harold, &quot;went to see what it was all about. He came home and said, 'You know, it wouldn't be a bad idea to get into that for a while.' &quot; Harold, an audio engineer, was eight years Editta's senior. In his 30s came a diagnosis of diabetes, followed eventually by blindness and kidney failure. He died at age 50. Still going strong Editta continued to appreciate her own good genes. (Her Italian-immigrant parents had lived into their 80s. Italian was her first language, and to this day she's fluent in the spoken and written word.) Reflecting on her nonagenarian status, she also attributes it to a positive outlook and a healthy lifestyle. Instead of a bed, she sleeps on a rectangular table, topped with a vinyl pad. She also takes a multivitamin daily and clocks 15 minutes on an at-home aerobic trainer — &quot;in the morning or afternoon, when I feel like it.&quot; Her distance vision is sharp, too. Cataracts removed, she relies on reading glasses. She likes novels, as well as biographies and autobiographies of the Hollywood stars she captured on camera. Many of her portraits have graced book covers. She continues to take pictures, and soon she hopes to turn her life's story into a book. &quot;She doesn't quit,&quot; Melisande Sherman says. &quot;She's always thinking of more projects the whole time. She always has new ideas.&quot; The grandma of 25 also enjoys cooking. Above Carnegie Hall, her homemade lentil soup warmed neighbors' hearts. &quot;I'm famous for it,&quot; she explains, &quot;because I've been making it for some sick people.&quot; After simmering a big pot, she would divvy up the contents. With her Italian heritage, her other specialty is tomato sauce. , the &quot;boy-next-door&quot; American actor and dancer who died in December 2008, was sold on Sherman's secret recipe. He penned a letter foretelling her ascent to heaven with that splendid sauce. Not yet. She's got more living — and photographing — to do. Susan Kreimer is a writer in New York.

Newsmaker Allen Kelley Among Hoops Greats, 1960 Olympic Team Player - AARP Bu... &nbsp; <h1>Allen Kelley Finds His Place Among Hoops Greats</h1> <h2>Former Kansas star gets inducted into Basketball Hall of Fame with 1960 Olympics teammates</h2> The names of former NBA stars such as , , , , and flow from the lips of basketball fans as if they were reading poetry. Allen Kelley? Well, outside of Lawrence, Kan., and Peoria, Ill., there’s a good chance he suffers from a lack of name recognition, even among the most devoted basketball fans. Kelley, 77, played during a different era for the sport, one that is in danger of being lost from the history of the game. He was on the NCAA championship team at the University of Kansas in 1952, won a basketball Olympic gold medal in 1960 and then settled in for a 45-year career with Peoria-based Caterpillar Inc., the manufacturer of construction and mining equipment. Kelley worked in parts distribution, and he could have been your next-door neighbor. He never played professional basketball. But as of Friday, Kelley is a proud member of the —just like all those big-time stars. He and his teammates on the 1960 USA men’s Olympic squad were inducted as a team, as were the members of the more famous 1992 USA Basketball “dream team.” “You respect all those [in the Basketball Hall of Fame] for what they did,” says Kelley, who had been eagerly awaiting this 1960 reunion since the Class of 2010 was announced in April. “And it’s just a privilege to be there in the same hall.” Fifty years ago, the Olympic team was a collection of college all-stars and the top players from corporately sponsored amateur teams in the National Industrial Basketball League. That’s where Kelley got his chance, as a 5-foot-11 guard for the , one of the ruling amateur teams from 1943 to 1960. Oscar Robertson, from the University of Cincinnati, and Jerry Lucas, from Ohio State, were the stars on that 1960 Olympic team, averaging 17 points each. Jerry West, from West Virginia, and Terry Dischinger of Purdue were the other top scorers. The college all-stars’ domination of the amateur teams that year ended the Amateur Athletic Union’s (AAU) rule of the selection process, which began when basketball was introduced as an Olympic sport in 1936. Kelley played in five of the eight Olympic games and scored just four points. But he says nothing could ever replace the Olympic experience and watching boxer Cassius Clay and track stars and compete in their events. Of course, he also got the opportunity to go against Robertson and West in practice. “As a player, you didn’t have to play long with Oscar and Jerry West to know they had great ability,” Kelley says. “There wasn’t any dissension on the team because the best players were playing. The college boys were good. They beat us in the Olympic [tryout] tournament. “Players know who the best players are. So it was kind of nice to have a front-row seat and watch the boys perform.” Legendary University of California coach Pete Newell got the most out of his talented players. The USA held its opponents to an average of 59.5 points, defeating the Soviets 81-57 and beating Brazil 90-63 for the gold medal. in a guest piece for the New York Times. “They worked for companies—like Goodyear, Vickers Aviation, Caterpillar or Phillips 66 … The NBA did not pay well and offered no benefits. For many college graduates, AAU basketball was the better option.” , one of Kelley’s Caterpillars teammates and an All-American at Kansas State, actually delayed his entry into the NBA to play in the 1960 Olympics. Kelley was a seventh-round selection of the Milwaukee Hawks in the 1954 NBA draft after earning All-Big Seven honors his last two seasons at Kansas. “I’ve still got the letter, and the offer was $5,000,” Kelley says. “I think they wanted me to pay my way out there, and then I had to make the team. I decided Caterpillar was more stability, so I went to Peoria and visited there. AAU was the place to be. “But you went to work every day and we practiced after work. When we were gone on [game] trips, somebody had to cover your job. Your salary was based on your job, and you were reviewed every year by your boss. Basketball had nothing to do with it. “But Caterpillar dropped their program after the 1960 Olympics. It got too expensive. I decided to quit then. I was out of college six years, but I had always wanted to make the Olympics.” Kelley reached that goal, was inducted in the University of Kansas Athletics Hall of Fame and the Greater Peoria Sports Hall of Fame. And now, 50 years after he and Boozer carried the Cats banner at the Rome Olympics, his name is in basketball’s greatest hall of all. Ken Davis is a writer in Coventry, Conn.

Newsmaker Mark Knoller Keeps Information Facts on President AARP Bulletin

Newsmaker Mark Knoller Keeps Information Facts on President AARP Bulletin

Newsmaker: Mark Knoller Keeps Information, Facts on President - AARP Bulletin &nbsp; <h1>He s Good at Keeping Tabs on the President</h1> <h2>Reporter Mark Knoller gathers and spews facts and figures about the nation s executive in chief</h2> CBS News radio reporter Mark Knoller is a font of presidential information, a fastidious compiler of facts that shed light on how American chief executives do the job. Though he is 58 and covering a White House schedule so complex that even the men and women keeping to it sometimes forget where they’ve been or whom they’ve seen, Knoller says his own memory is sharp. He plays no brain games nor takes special supplements to keep the neurons firing. “I find that doing my job every day gives me the intellectual acuity I need for this,” he says. “But there are occasions that I forget: ‘When was that trip to that location?’ I’m glad I’ve got the diary so that I can look it up.” The diary, as Knoller calls it, is really a computer database of statistics about each day in the life of the president, deconstructed by events and activities. Want to know how many times President Obama used a particular phrase? Knoller knows. He has notes and details on speeches, meetings with members of Congress, bill signings, family outings and much more. Logging in information A Brooklyn, N.Y., native, Knoller covered the White House on and off through the presidencies of , and . He was assigned full time to the White House in ’s final year, covered the and administrations and now . Knoller began logging stats during President Clinton’s first term. “I remember trying to figure out on how many previous occasions [Clinton] had made trips to California, and it was difficult. We didn’t have the Internet, and access to instant information was not easy. I remember going through Facts on File, going through the printed copies of presidential documents and trying to piece together the record of how many trips [the president] had previously made to that state.” Such details can provide insight, says Knoller, who was an Associated Press reporter before landing at CBS and has earned several awards for his reporting. “I thought, ‘I need to keep records on this’ because it was an interesting nugget to say [in a story] that President Clinton is making his fourth or 15th or 23rd visit to California. It certainly added insight to the importance he placed on the state and its 54 electoral votes.” Trips, meetings and more A New York University graduate who originally intended to go to medical school, Knoller—from a cubicle in the White House press room—now keeps many separate lists, but each began with his desire to know a particular fact. “I thought, ‘Gee, it would be interesting to know how many domestic trips [the president] has taken, how many foreign trips, how many times he traveled to France and Germany, how many times a year does he go to Camp David, how many vacation days does he spend a year. It just started adding up.” And he logs it all in. “At the end of the day I take an hour and I write down everything the president did and said, meetings he had, places he went, and it is in a searchable database.” Knoller rarely takes days off, but when he does, he still keeps his diary. Only Knoller has access to his digital database. But lucky for his White House reporter colleagues, he is a generous man in that competitive arena. “There’s a lot of data that I’m keeping and I don’t have occasion to use it every day or even every week,” he says. “So if a fellow reporter says, ‘Do you know how many times he’s done this or gone there?’ it just seemed to me I could help out a colleague. It didn’t seem like I was giving away something all that valuable—and in most cases my colleagues credited me.” Outside of work, however, Knoller isn’t given to making lists. “There would be nothing on it,” he says, “except maybe ‘pick up dry cleaning.’ ” Lorrie Lynch is a writer in Washington, D.C.

Newsmaker Dick LeBeau to Join Pro Football Hall of Fame AARP Bulletin

Newsmaker Dick LeBeau to Join Pro Football Hall of Fame AARP Bulletin

Newsmaker: Dick LeBeau to Join Pro Football Hall of Fame - AARP Bulletin Leisure &amp; Activities &nbsp; <h1>For Dick LeBeau the Wait Is Over</h1> <h2>Pittsburgh defensive coordinator finally gets nod to join legends in Pro Football Hall of Fame</h2> Dick LeBeau takes no credit for his boundless energy or youthful appearance. “I am blessed with a great gene pool,” says the 72-year-old defensive coordinator for the Pittsburgh Steelers. “People in my family have had great longevity.” LeBeau also has had great longevity in the having spent more than half a century as a player or coach. After waiting more than three decades, he will finally join gridiron greats when he is inducted into the in Canton, Ohio, on Saturday. Credited with creating the “zone blitz,” a defensive tactic in which linebackers rush the passer and linemen drop into coverage, LeBeau helped to coach the Steelers to two Super Bowl championships in four years (2005 and 2008 seasons). “You could make a strong argument that LeBeau is the best defensive coach ever,” says analyst Ron Jaworski. The waiting game As great as LeBeau has been as an assistant coach, he made the Hall of Fame as part of its Class of 2010 for his work as a player. He was a cornerback for the Detroit Lions from 1959 to 1972, intercepting 62 passes, which ranks eighth-best in NFL history. But he still had to wait 33 years before pro football’s highest honor was bestowed upon him. LeBeau never complained when, year after year, the football writers who vote on the Hall inductees bypassed him. He showed extraordinary patience, even if his supporters weren’t thrilled with the repeated snubs. “As a player, he belongs,” says Rod Woodson, a Hall of Fame defensive back whom LeBeau mentored. “But look beyond that and consider his 50 years in the NFL and how valuable he has been to the league.” LeBeau, who played for legendary coach and led Ohio State University to the 1957 national championship as a running back and cornerback, credits someone else with inspiring him. “Jim Bowlus,” LeBeau says of his high school coach in London, Ohio. “I could see the positive impact he had on me and all my teammates. I knew right then that I would be a coach one day.” From player to coach Coaching would wait, however. After Ohio State, his hometown team, the Cleveland Browns, drafted him in 1959. But in training camp the Browns cut the rookie, who proved them wrong after signing with the Lions. He started 171 consecutive games with the team, which is still a record for cornerbacks. LeBeau has used the same consistent approach to his career with the players he coaches. “He’s tough but fair,” says Steelers linebacker James Farrior. “He treats us like we’re all his sons.” It is sentiments like those that explain why everyone connected with the team is rejoicing over LeBeau’s Hall honor. But he credits others with helping him earn football immortality. “I am indebted to our players who took me to the Super Bowl and kept my name current even though it’s been a long time since I’ve played,” LeBeau says. “I’m grateful.” But he’s not done yet. LeBeau is preparing for the 2010 season and another try for Super Bowl glory. The married father of five does enjoy his time away from football, playing acoustic guitar and reading. He shuns today’s technology, joking that he’s “older than old school. Half of the time, I have to call my son to get my TV on. … I’m not high-tech. I just try to keep my brain high-tech.” LeBeau’s number one hobby is golf. He is an exceptional player who shoots in the 70s. “There is no great aerobic value in golf, but it does give you a good stretching of your entire core muscles,” he says. “With muscles, if you don’t use ’em, it doesn’t take too long before they atrophy.” So what’s his secret for staying vibrant? “Besides good genes, I’d say that I haven’t put a whole lot of poison in my body, ever,” he says. “And I enjoy interacting with young people—my players.” Walter Villa is deputy sports editor at the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

Newsmaker Eleanor Ross Taylor Gaining Poetic Acclaim at 90 AARP Everywher

Newsmaker Eleanor Ross Taylor Gaining Poetic Acclaim at 90 AARP Everywher

Newsmaker: Eleanor Ross Taylor Gaining Poetic Acclaim at 90 - AARP Everywher... Arts &amp; Leisure &nbsp; <h1>Eleanor Ross Taylor Gaining Poetic Acclaim at 90</h1> <h2>Her Southern voice and observations about women draw a $100 000 prize</h2> At the end of a long career, Eleanor Ross Taylor is just now gaining recognition. The 90-year-old poet offers a distinctive Southern voice and vivid insights into the &quot;underground life&quot; of women. In April, Taylor was awarded the 2010 for lifetime achievement for her sixth book, Captive Voices: New and Selected Poems, 1960-2008. The prestigious award, which carries a $100,000 prize, is bringing attention to Taylor, whose work is largely unknown outside a small circle of friends and other poets. Most of her poetry has been out of print for years. Her son, Ross Taylor, a poet and fiction writer from Falls Church, Va., says his mother's work reflects her world of rural Norwood, N.C., where she grew up on a farm. Her poems also speak to her life as a wife and mother of two (her daughter, Katherine, is now deceased). A local newspaper published her first poem when she was 9, and she wrote poetry well into her 80s. &quot;She writes about specific life, and her specific life is having a background in the rural South,&quot; Ross Taylor says. &quot;One of her trademarks is the odd use of language, making up her own words, some of them coming from dialect or regional speech.&quot; Many years ago, the poet wrote that Taylor's work speaks of &quot;the underground life of women, the Southern white Protestant woman in particular, the woman-writer, the woman in the family, coping, hoarding, preserving, observing, keeping up appearances, seeing through the myths and hypocrisies, nursing the sick, conspiring with sister-women, possessed of a will to survive and to see others.&quot; Taylor no longer gives interviews. Her memory and energy are fading, her son says, and she is no longer writing. She recently moved to Falls Church, a mile from her son and his family. No self-promoter A 1942 graduate of the Woman's College, now the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, Taylor lived for many years in Charlottesville, Va., where her husband, the late Peter Taylor, taught writing and was part of a loosely knit group of Southern writers. She was always reclusive, her son says, and lived in the shadow of her more famous and gregarious husband, who wrote about the urban South and won a Pulitzer Prize for fiction in 1987 (A Summons to Memphis). . Taylor didn't promote her own work by giving readings, teaching or becoming a prominent figure in literary circles, her son says. Her first volume, Wilderness of Ladies, was published in 1960 when she was 40. Dave Smith, director of writing seminars at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore and Taylor's editor, describes her as &quot;sort of a secret&quot; and an individual who never did anything to help the public find her. &quot;She does write about herself, once you learn how to read her,&quot; Smith says. &quot;Her poems are often about very common things, going to the hairdresser, about her children.&quot; Eric Gudas, a poet and scholar who is writing a book about Taylor's life and poetry, says Taylor comes from a generation of women writers who have &quot;two lives — lives as writers, lives as mothers and wives. Those two lives didn't always come together. &quot;She writes about women in the rural South. There's a lot in her work about the incredible struggle it takes to maintain your identity,&quot; Gudas says. , a friend who is the state poet of New York, describes Taylor as a true feminist. &quot;She writes about women and a point of view we didn't hear very much,&quot; says Valentine, adding that Taylor doesn't like the feminist label very much. In a 1997 interview with Valentine in the literary journal Southern Review, however, Taylor acknowledged that many of her poems are written for women. &quot;I feel that consciously, that they are the ones who could understand the poems,&quot; she said. In 2002, Taylor told another interviewer that every poet is &quot;reaching for understanding ... whether they know it or not.&quot; There is a treasure trove of her work and . Taylor's son has at least 30 of his mother's unpublished poems that he hopes to publish. Several will be published for the first time this fall in , a poetry journal, and others soon in . A verse from &quot;Late Leisure,&quot; her poem published in 1999 about embroidery, can hardly sum up the full body of her work, but it provides a glimmer of the beauty and modesty of her poetry. I, past my expiration date, fold the cloth twice for center, my needle threaded for the first small stitch, myself capriciously ongoing.

Newsmaker Bob Desper Blind Musician Gets Another Crack at Stardom AARP Ev

Newsmaker Bob Desper Blind Musician Gets Another Crack at Stardom AARP Ev

Newsmaker: Bob Desper, Blind Musician Gets Another Crack at Stardom - AARP Ev... Music &nbsp; <h1>Blind Musician Gets Another Crack at Stardom</h1> <h2>Folksinger guitarist Bob Desper enjoys growing acclaim after nearly 40 years in obscurity</h2> Bob Desper is a patient man. In the 36 years since he forked over money out of his own pocket to make his first solo album, the 60-year-old blind singer-songwriter never lost faith that he would be discovered someday. It looks like that day has come at last. With his 1974 folk album, New Sounds, now reissued on vinyl, a CD in the works, singles selling at online music sites and plans to record a second album, Desper is finally enjoying the acclaim he had hoped for nearly four decades ago. “Some things are meant to be, you know,” says Desper, who lives in Albany, Ore. “But things happen in their time. I’ve been hanging in there with faith and hope.” The phone call Desper had been expecting since the ’70s came two years ago. Paul Anson, co-owner of the Discourage Records label in Portland, Ore., which specializes in reissuing forgotten classics as vinyl albums, had found Desper’s phone number after months of detective work. He asked for Desper’s permission to reissue New Sounds, which over the years had become a cult classic. “He didn’t really seem that shocked,” says Anson about his call to Desper. “He kind of felt like this had been waiting to happen.” But Anson, who had been told that the singer had long since died, couldn’t believe that he had found Desper alive and well and just 70 miles away. The guitarist had never surfaced during the time that an international cadre of fans was uploading his songs to the Internet, extolling his musical talents and paying as much as $1,000 for pristine copies of the album. Low-key existence Desper was living in obscurity and poverty, eking out a living from disability payments and his meager earnings from selling costume jewelry door to door. Two failed marriages and the end of one long-term relationship had left him lonely, except for his two cats and the regulars at his daily hangout, Roger’s Restaurant. Although he continued to compose songs and sing them into his tape recorder, he had no inkling that he was thought to be dead or, more importantly, that he had fans. Desper has been blind since age 11. He was one of five siblings growing up in Richmond, Va., when he slipped and fell against a short fence post, hitting his head at the temple and detaching his retinas. Several surgeries were unsuccessful. When he was 12, his grandmother bought him a guitar that he took with him when the family moved to Oregon so that his father, a migrant farm worker, could earn money picking fruit. According to his mother, Desper showed musical talent from the beginning. “He’s always been able to play,” says Phyllis Mitchell, 77, of Lebanon, Ore. “His sister always said that she thought he should be up with Bob Dylan and those guys.” But the chance for another crack at stardom didn’t come until Anson’s phone call. He and Desper finally got together for coffee, and Anson later brought along his business partner, Paul Montone, to meet the man with the flowing white hair and the peaceful disposition. Desper had pawned his own guitar a year earlier after injuring the ring finger on his left hand, so Anson and Montone took him to a nearby music shop to watch him play. “He took the guitar down from the wall and started playing,” Anson recalls. He and Montone turned to each other with eyebrows raised. “He sounded great. We just couldn’t believe what a presence he was. He’s just so unique and confident.” Back in the spotlight Discourage Records reissued New Sounds as a vinyl album last February. The first pressing of 1,000 copies has nearly sold out. To mark the June debut of the album’s singles online, a comeback concert was arranged. Several weeks after the concert, Desper is still basking in happiness from his success. “People told me there was a lot more cheers when I came on than for the people playing before me,” he says with a broad smile. “That makes me feel good that I get to perform and see the happiness of other people.” He made $200 from the concert and so far has collected enough royalties to keep creditors at bay. Anson and Montone hope a larger record label can eventually sign Desper and give him the exposure he deserves. They created a , a and a to help more fans find him. Desper is just glad to have a new opportunity to share his music. “It’s just good music, heartfelt music,” he says. “It would encourage anybody and motivate them in the right direction.” And perhaps others can take inspiration from his long-awaited overnight success. “It’s fascinating,” he muses, “because it’s now what I would like to have had back then. But I kept playing. And then I just picked up the phone one day and there they were. That was all there was to it.” Susan G. Hauser is a writer in Oregon.

Fidelity Viewpoints - 11/24/2020 U.S. growth continues to rebound, but momentum has slowed Covid cases increase across the nation. Continued fiscal stimulus may be key to sustainability. By Nick Timiraos, The Wall Street Journal - 12/13/2020 The Federal Reserve holds its last policy meeting of the year this week. Positive news on Covid-19 vaccines might give central bankers reason for a little optimism in 2021. Bloomberg - 12/01/2020 Tim Duy, professor of practice at the University of Oregon, says there are very good reasons to believe that the economy will be able to recover next year. By Alexandra Scaggs, Barron's - 12/03/2020 The fixed-income markets point to higher inflation expectations. But some bond strategists say a rebound is not a great cause for concern. Here’s why. <h3>Economy</h3> Thanks to cheap valuations, relative strength and an improving economic outlook, financial and energy shares may be in a good spot for investors. Government policy could accelerate economic growth in the second quarter, leading to higher inflation. Here are the sectors that could hold up well in this environment. Profit growth is an important measure of market support, and with companies posting better-than-expected quarterly results, stocks could continue to climb higher. As inflation and growth pick up, Mike Wilson, chief U.S. equity strategist at Morgan Stanley, says investors should look at bank, material and industrial stocks. <h3>Bonds &amp Commodities</h3> Brian Jacobsen of Wells Fargo Asset Management says he remains ‘risk on’ and prefers equities over fixed income and within stocks, those based on a reopening trade. Stocks’ lofty valuations have many investors asking: Are we in a bubble, and is it about to pop? Here are a number of strategies that could help you manage the current market. Tax-exempt municipal bonds have long been attractive to many investors, but what about their taxable counterparts? They may have their merits as well. Here’s why. Why bonds may deliver next year The Fed has a message for the markets: Expect more of the same. That was good for bonds in 2020, and it may bode well for more positive returns in the coming year. <h3>Technology</h3> Demand for electric vehicles is growing, and most of them run on lithium-ion batteries. These five stocks could help you get a toehold in the sector that supplies EV power. After a strong quarterly showing from banks, the next section of the market that will likely be in focus is growth stocks, with some of tech’s biggest names reporting results this week.

Photo: Mario Tama via Getty Images California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) signed into law Tuesday a pair of bills aimed at in public spaces after Asian Americans pushed for action. Why it matters: Two in three of the nearly in the last two years involved harassment such as verbal hate speech or inappropriate gestures — but verbal harassment often doesn&#x27;t meet the legal definition of a hate crime. Advocates say the new laws are a first step toward developing better policy recommendations to address that gap. shows that 40% of self-reported anti-Asian hate incidents occurred in public spaces. Over 27% took place in businesses, including grocery stores and pharmacies. Nearly one in 10 incidents happened on public transit. Driving the news: The new legislation, which Stop AAPI Hate played a role in developing, requires the Mineta Transportation Institute to research and create tools for assessing harassment of passengers as part of an effort to .It also calls on to create and implement a pilot program that will incentivize businesses to create environments for customers that are free of discrimination and harassment.The legislation focused on harassment on public transit, in the streets and in businesses because they&#x27;re where the bulk of incidents reported to Stop AAPI Hate take place.Though Asian American advocates and legislators led the bills, they are intended to help bolster protections for all marginalized communities, according to Stop AAPI Hate.

It&#x27;s why &quot;the criminal legal component is not going to answer all of the ills,&quot; she said, pointing to racialized and sexualized comments directed at AAPI women that police wouldn&#x27;t consider a crime.&quot;But I think that there actually continue to be a whole host of civil rights enforcement mechanisms that have been ignored, neglected, not fully utilized,&quot; she noted. &quot;And that&#x27;s where I will say we are very ambitious, both in terms of state as well as federal levels ... that there are opportunities actually to build a civil rights infrastructure that addresses the need.&quot; The big picture: Hate crimes in California , and are at their highest reported level since 2001. Hate crimes against Black people remain the most prevalent, but last year saw the largest increase (177%) in .
