The biggest game of the year will be on television screens across the country this weekend as the undefeated New England Patriots take on the New York Giants. But the much-anticipated football game won't likely be showing on screens inside the churches this year.

Bottum: McCain and the Hoyas

I'd missed it earlier in the week, but over at Salon on Tuesday, Mike Madden noted that after the Georgetown-West Virginia game on January 26, John McCain called Mark Salter, his "longtime speechwriter/Senate chief of staff/intellectual alter ego," to describe the goaltend (er, block, I mean; yes, block) by which Patrick Ewing Jr. had won the game.

Seems pretty newsworthy to me, but Madden pushes it into the mystical territory of the true Georgetown fanatic where my daughter and I dwell when he adds: "The Hoyas have been a near-perfect predictor of McCain's fortunes this year.

NRI count causes a scare

Even when the government conducts economic surveys, the figures are often misleading from the public.

Darshan Singh, a farmer from Chhapar, said, We are scared that the government might be collecting the data to levy some special tax. People will not be forthcoming with complete information in this case.

Jugminder Grewal, SDM, entrusted with collecting data for the East Ludhiana, Dehlon, Koom Kalan and Jassowal subdivisions, said, We are nearly complete with the data. We are not closing the books because there are a number of people who have not yet come forward with all the details of information. We are meeting people and informing them that data was a mere information bank.

Another senior official said, We are not very clear about the details and reasons for the data collection.

Jordan unfazed by Korea DPR test

Although their fairy tale last-eight finish in England 1966 represented the undoubted high-point of their largely unremarkable football history, Korea DPR remain a mysterious force in Asia that none of their continental rivals dare underestimate. For Jordan, however, who play host to the North Koreans in Amman on 6 February in the sides' opening fixture in the third round of Asian qualifiers for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™, their visitors hold no fears. There is a historical basis for such confidence, with memories still fresh of an emphatic 3-0 victory over the Koreans in an AFC Asian Cup qualifier in 2003, a result that proved crucial in helping the Jordanians progress to their first-ever continental finals, in which they reached the quarter-finals. More important to morale than this fond memory, however, has been the series of impressive recent friendly results racked up by Nelo Vingada's team, whose declared target is to qualify for the final stage of Asian qualify by emerging from a section that also includes Korea Republic and Turkmenistan.
