== Movin’ on up- DWR successfully moves more than 50 mountain ==
 +
 +
<html>It was the start of a grand adventure for the billies, nannies and kids. Twenty went south to become the first-ever — and controversial — population of known mountain goats on the La Sal Mountains east of Moab. Ten were shipped north to augment an existing population on Mount Nebo, and 23 were driven to a new home two states away.
 +
 +
"These guys are headed to the Black Hills and Mount Rushmore,[http://ebeen.com/w/%EC%82%AC%EC%9A%A9%EC%9E%90:Rovahomoimi#Understanding_the_Evan_Longoria_slump Understanding the Evan Longoria slump], in that general area," said Andy Lindbloom, a senior big game biologist for the South Dakota Department of Game, Fish and Parks. "They will provide some new bloodlines for our population."
 +
 +
More than 200 mountain goats have been relocated from the Tushar Mountains and moved to other locations with the completion of this recent capture, said Brent Farnsworth, a conservation officer with the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR). It’s an interesting fact considering that the Tushar population also was started by relocated mountain goats from the Lone Peak Wilderness Area and Mount Timpanogos on the Wasatch Front and Olympic National Park in Washington state.
 +
 +
"They were first brought into this area in 1986. More animals were brought in 1988,[http://boneforums.com/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=79329 Pittsburgh at St. Louis_0]," said Riley Peck, a regional wildlife biologist with the DWR. "There are about 270 now. There is fantastic habitat here."
 +
 +
So fantastic that the mountain goat population for the Tushars is far exceeding the 125-animal target. Hunting permits for this fall could remove another 30 animals,[http://3drelooking.com/node/48?page=6997#comment-350223 Reiki has made its way into mainstream healthcare_0], and a second mountain goat transplant is scheduled for October that will bolster the Mount Dutton herd,[http://www.bransonpowers.com/ Houston's Top 100 Independent Shops, Thompson & Hanson through Zadok Jewelers], just to the south.
 +
 +
Even with all the subtractions, there still should be plenty of mountain goats for the general public to check out on their own or during the state’s Watchable Wildlife viewing events in 2014.
 +
 +
"We recently had our big viewing day and had close to 250 people here," Peck said. "A three-day county event brought another 2,[http://savageclassical.com/blog/ Turns Out Your Kids Really Did Love That Music You Played - Shots],000 people just to look at mountain goats."
 +
 +
Large concentrations of wildlife can lead to disease outbreak, but DWR wildlife disease program coordinator Leslie McFarlane said the goats from the capture looked healthy.</html>

== VIDEO- Assad Warns of Retaliation, 'You Should Expect E ==
 +
 +
<html>Summary??Syrian President Assad has warned there will be "repercussions" against U.S. military strikes
 +
 +
??President Obama is seeking authorization from Congress to launch a limited-scope attack against Syria
 +
 +
? Assad said the current incident reminds him of the Bush administration during Iraq
 +
 +
WASHINGTON (AP) — Syrian President Bashar Assad has warned there will be repercussions against any U. S. military strike launched in response to a chemical weapons attack in his country.
 +
 +
You should expect everything, Assad said in an interview with CBS taped in Damascus. Not necessarily from the government. It s not only the government in this region. You have different parties, you have different factions,[http://www.GoProing.com/diver-dies-at-former-quarry-in-eastern-pennsylvania/ Diver dies at former quarry in eastern Pennsylvania], you have different ideology.
 +
 +
Asked if he was making a threat of a direct military response to any such attack, Assad was vague,[http://wife.bob.buttobi.net/home.php?mod=space&uid=54969 ], saying at one point, I am not fortune teller to tell you what s going to happen.
 +
 +
President Barack Obama is seeking authorization from Congress to launch what the administration says would be a limited-scope attack against Syria in reprisal for Assad s purported use of chemical weapons. Assad has denied it and argued in the interview broadcast Monday on CBS This Morning that Washington has presented no evidence to substantiate its allegations. In London Monday, Secretary of State John Kerry reasserted Washington s argument and said that the evidence is sufficiently strong to be accepted as evidence in a court of law.
 +
 +
In the CBS interview, Assad said his forces were not in the area of the chemical weapons attack Aug. 21, saying our soldiers in another area were attacked chemically. But in the area where they said the government used chemical weapons, we only had video and we only have pictures and allegations. We re not there. Kerry said that Assad s denial is contradicted by fact.
 +
 +
Asked if chemical warfare could be one repercussion from an American intervention in Syria, Assad told anchorman Charlie Rose: That depends if the rebels or the terrorists in this region or any other group have it. It could happen.
 +
 +
You are going to pay the price if you are not wise with dealing with terrorists, he said.
 +
 +
Assad also said the current incident brings to mind memories of the arguments for intervention that President George W. Bush s administration made over a decade ago in connection with President Saddam Hussein s Iraq.
 +
 +
Assad said Kerry s statements reminded him about the big lie that Secretary of State Colin Powell said to the United Nations about Saddam s weapons of mass destruction.
 +
 +
Assad also said the majority of Americans don t want a war anywhere, not only against Syria. He said the first question the U.S. lawmakers should ask themselves is ,[http://piclr.com/view/post:249660 Philadelphia Eagles Fans Will Receive Free Coffee], What do wars give America? He said Washington s credibility is at an all-time low. <br>

== The NSA Machine- Too Big For Anyone to Understand  RY ==
 +
 +
<html>WASHINGTON (AP) ― The surveillance machine grew too big for anyone to understand.
 +
 +
The National Security Agency set it in motion in 2006 and the vast network of supercomputers, switches and wiretaps began gathering Americans phone and Internet records by the millions, looking for signs of terrorism.
 +
 +
But every day, NSA analysts snooped on more American phone records than they were allowed to. Some officials searched databases of phone records without even realizing it. Others shared the results of their searches with people who weren t authorized to see them.
 +
 +
It took nearly three years before the government figured out that so much had gone wrong. It took even longer to figure out why.
 +
 +
Newly declassified documents released Tuesday tell a story of a surveillance apparatus so unwieldy and complex that nobody fully comprehended it, even as the government pointed it at the American people in the name of protecting them.
 +
 +
There was no single person who had a complete technical understanding, government lawyers explained to a federal judge in 2009.
 +
 +
During a summer in which former NSA systems analyst Edward Snowden released America s surveillance secrets to the world, the Obama administration has repeatedly tried to reassure people that the NSA s powers were kept in check by Congress and the courts. The mistakes discovered in 2009 have been fixed, the president said, a reflection of that oversight.
 +
 +
But the documents from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court show that,[http://whoneedslight.com/index.php/forum/2-welcome-mat/168479-food-is-easier-but-sex-is-better-when-in-need-of-emotional-comfort#168479 Food is Easier but Sex is better when in Need of Emotional Comfort], in developing the world s most sophisticated surveillance network, even senior lawyers and officials weren t sure how the system worked and didn t understand what they were told.
 +
 +
It appears there was never a complete understanding among the key personnel . regarding what each individual meant by the terminology, lawyers wrote in March 2009 as the scope of the problems came into focus.
 +
 +
As a result,[http://ballerblogger.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=32764 Alabama Bar Will Let Patrons Take Swings at ‘], the judges on the surveillance court, who rely on the NSA to explain the surveillance program, approved a program that was far more intrusive than they believed.
 +
 +
Given the executive branch s responsibility for and expertise in determining how best to protect our national security, and in light of the scale of this bulk collection program,[http://ehcubed.ca/community/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=195576 Area residents urged not to pass on a special thea], the court must rely heavily on the government to monitor this program, Judge Reggie B. Walton wrote in a 2009 order that found the NSA had repeatedly misrepresented its programs.
 +
 +
In Congress, meanwhile, only some lawmakers fully understand the programs they have repeatedly authorized and are supposed to be overseeing. For instance, Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner, R-Wis., one of the sponsors of the USA Patriot Act, has said he never intended it to be used to collect and store the phone records of every American.
 +
 +
And when Director of National Intelligence James Clapper was asked whether the government was doing that, he testified, No. Yet Snowden s revelations, published in Britain s Guardian newspaper, show that is what happened.
 +
 +
There is no evidence in the new documents suggesting the NSA used its surveillance powers to spy on Americans for political purposes, a fear of many critics who recall the FBI s intrusive monitoring of civil rights leaders and anti-war protesters in the 1960s. Instead, the documents blame the years of government overreaching on technical mistakes, misunderstandings and lack of training.
 +
 +
From 2006 through early 2009, for instance, the NSA s computers reached into the database of phone records and compared them with thousands of others without reasonable, articulable suspicion, the required legal standard.
 +
 +
By the time the problems were discovered, only about 10 percent of the 17,835 phone numbers on the government s watch list in early 2009 met the legal standard.
 +
 +
By then,[http://maxblumenthal.com/ 4th suspect in shooting at Denny's now in custody], Walton said he d lost confidence in the NSA s ability to legally operate the program. He ordered a full review of the surveillance.
 +
 +
In its long report to the surveillance court in August 2009, the Obama administration blamed its mistakes on the complexity of the system and a lack of shared understanding among the key stakeholders about the scope of the surveillance.
 +
 +
The documents released today are a testament to the government s strong commitment to detecting, correcting and reporting mistakes that occur in implementing technologically complex intelligence collection activities,[http://www.9vcar.com/viewthread.php?tid=346916&extra=page%3D1&frombbs=1 Mom’s brief cellphone video has lingering consequences], and to continually improving its oversight and compliance processes, Clapper said in a statement Tuesday.
 +
 +
The surveillance court was satisfied by those improvements; it allowed the NSA to continue collecting phone records every day, a practice that continues today.
 +
 +
Now, the Obama administration is fending off lawsuits and a push in Congress to rein in the surveillance.
 +
 +
An unusual coalition of liberal Democrats and Republican civil libertarians has proposed several bills that would either scrap the phone surveillance entirely or require more oversight.
 +
 +
President Barack Obama has said he s open to more oversight but says the surveillance is essential to keep the country safe.
 +
 +
Obama and Clapper have said the changes made in 2009 resulted in tightened controls. American data is still collected but only seldom looked at, officials said. And it is kept on secure computer servers equipped with special software to protect it from analysts looking to illegally snoop.
 +
 +
There are checks at multiple levels, NSA Deputy Director John Inglis told Congress in July. There are checks in terms of what an individual might be doing at any moment in time.
 +
 +
The same checks that protect Americans personal data were also supposed to protect the NSA s information. Yet Snowden, a 29-year-old contractor, managed to walk out with flash drives full of the nation s most highly classified documents.
 +
 +
The NSA is still trying to figure out, in such a complex system, exactly how Snowden defeated those checks.
 +
 +
I think we can say that they failed, Inglis said. But we don t yet know where.

== Beadles Hosts 'Cakes for Cancer' Event ==
 +
 +
<html>Broncos G Zane Beadles hosted an event Sunday to benefit Brent's Place, which provides housing for families with recovering children.DENVER -- Zane’s Parade Foundation, founded by Broncos offensive lineman Zane Beadles, hosted “Cakes for Cancer” Sunday morning to benefit Brent’s Place. Brent’s Place is the only “safe-clean” housing facility in the Rocky Mountain region approved by Denver area children’s hospitals.
 +
Brent’s Place helps children recovering from life-saving cancer treatments, and their families, by providing environments that are free of common viruses, bacteria and germs for the children to stay during their recovery process.
 +
“Safe-clean” environments are critical for children recovering from treatments like bone marrow transplants because the immune systems of affected children are particularly vulnerable during the recovery process.
 +
“I knew I wanted to do something for kids with cancer,” Beadles said. “I looked around the Denver area and found Brent’s Place that provides safe-clean housing for kids going through cancer treatments. They’re able to stay there with their families while their immune systems are compromised. I team up with them, going on about two and a half years now and they’re an organization that provides a very unique and needed thing for families going through that time in their lives. It’s definitely been a great partnership.”
 +
Beadles hosted families from Brent’s Place and fans of all ages at the Exdo Center in Denver for breakfast and fun on Sunday morning. Beadles along with teammate Ben Garland danced with some of the children in attendance – and some of the Cherry Creek High School Cheerleaders -- and competed in a pancake eating competition.
 +
The event also presented the opportunity to bid in both live and silent auctions to benefit Brent’s Place. Since 2011 Zane’s Parade has raised more than $50,000 for Brent’s Place.
 +
The event,[http://www.navigatingtohealth.com/yankees-add-shortstop-brendan-ryan-from-mariners-bolster-depth-with-derek/ Yankees Add Shortstop Brendan Ryan From Mariners, Bolster Depth With Derek], like the logo for Zane’s Parade, was elephant themed – an elephant size cake walk, the eating competition included strap on trunks and tusks, and balloon elephants were scattered around the room.
 +
“If I were a wild animal,[http://www.conservativecoalitionmc.org/?q=node/13#comment-6287 Greenville Drive season review- Diamonds in the (very) rough], I think I would be an elephant,” Beadles said. “I’ve found a lot of similarities between myself and elephants. I would have to say they’re my favorite animal. They’re very passionate,[http://www.tabnplay.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=297185 Yankees rally in 8th to remain in playoff chase], their very loyal, they’re smart animals and a parade of elephants I thought was a great correlation between what I wanted to accomplish with my foundation and everything. So it was perfect match for what we wanted to do.”
 +
Kids were also able to have their faces painted, color,[http://norcos.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=66251 At TIFF, filmmakers and writers call for release o], jump in the bouncy castle and play other assorted games. Snooze provided breakfast and the pancakes for the competition and food trucks were assembled just outside the building for dessert.
 +
“It’s definitely good,” Beadles said of getting the chance to hang out with the children. “Especially early in the season,<a href="http://cakapbola.bdfc.org.bn/viewtopic.php?pid=294389#p294389">Here’s who should \(and shouldn’t\) buy the iPhone 5S</a>, coming off a big win, it’s good to get out in the community. We’ve been given such great experiences in our lives and I’m just blessed to be in the position that I’m in that I feel like I need to give that back to people and be involved in the community. It’s great to be out here and hopefully everyone has a good time.”</html>

== Camp Bastion families still fighting for truth 0 ==
 +
 +
<html>Today, ?never forget? will resound across America as citizens mark a dozen years since the 9/11 terrorist attack and one year since the bloody disaster in Benghazi. But who will remember the American heroes who came under siege at Camp Bastion in Afghanistan on Sept. 14, 2012?
 +
Two heroic U.S. Marines ? Lt. Col. Christopher Raible and Sgt. Bradley Atwell ? perished in the monstrous battle last year, and nearly a dozen others were injured. What happened at Camp Bastion and whether the Obama administration has learned from the deadly incident are timely questions as Washington prepares for war again in a jihadi-infested region.
 +
And as military families know,[http://onlinefashion.journalspace.com/2013/09/13/borse-vuitton-or-1868-i-can-never-ge-to/ Submit a tree to the 2013 Festival of Trees], there is no such thing as ?no boots on the ground.?
 +
The families of the fallen at Camp Bastion are still waiting for the results of an official CENTCOM probe into last year?s attack. They hear that members of Congress will get briefed on the investigation before the families themselves get the details about what happened to their loved ones ? and who bears responsibility for the security lapses that enabled the attack.
 +
Refresher: Three days after the bloody siege on our consulate in Libya, the Taliban waged an intricately coordinated, brutal attack on Camp Bastion. The base is a British-run NATO compound that adjoins our Marines? Camp Leatherneck. The meticulously coordinated siege by 15 Taliban infiltrators ? dressed in American combat fatigues and armed with assault rifles,[http://forum.hurricanes-dbc.com/ Bill de Blasio leads Democratic primary vote tally for NYC mayor, but Bill Thompson still threatens runoff; Joe Lhota wins GOP primary], rocket-propelled grenades and other weapons ? resulted in two deaths and the most devastating loss of U.S. airpower since Vietnam.
 +
Six Harrier jets were destroyed; three refueling stations were wiped out; six hangars were damaged. The Taliban released video showing their jihadi training prep. The attack came exactly six months after a failed suicide attack targeting then Defense Secretary Leon Panetta.
 +
As I first reported in June, relatives of the Marines killed in the raid learned on their own that their loved ones were left vulnerable to attack by military leaders who outsourced watchtower security on the base to soldiers from Tonga. The families zeroed in on Maj. Gen. Charles ?Mark? Gurganus, who recently returned to the United States after commanding coalition forces in Afghanistan,[http://www.sclwsp.com/bbs/ShowPost.asp?ThreadID=56084 Oklahoma school changes dress code after 'no dread], as the man responsible for shortchanging security at Bastion.
 +
Gurganus is the same one who ordered Marines to disarm ? immediately after the failed attack on Panetta ? because he wanted them ?to look just like our (unarmed) Afghan partners.? Neglect of security at Bastion was widely known.
 +
A news article in GQ magazine this month detailed how the courageous ?mechanics and pilots turned defenders and riflemen ... undoubtedly prevented a greater catastrophe.? Their actions deserve public attention far and wide.
 +
September 11 was supposed to have taught us to collect the dots and connect the dots, to never underestimate jihadi warriors,[http://buddinet.com/blog/ Where were you on Sept. 11, 2001], and to never subvert our security to indulge deadly political correctness. From 9/11 to Fort Hood to Benghazi to Bastion,[http://uscm.shockonline.co.uk/newforum/viewtopic.php?p=222070#222070 Apple introduces the iPhone 5S and 5C; iOS 7 updat], it?s not whether we?ve forgotten that matters most.

== After decades of war and insurgency, Afghanistan wins its 1s ==
 +
 +
<html>KATHMANDU,[http://home.tvgzone.com/space.php?uid=2204&do=blog&id=509772 Haunting memories of Sept. 11 shape Syria debate], Nepal - Afghanistan won its first international trophy in football on Wednesday, beating India 2-0 in the South Asian Football Federation Championship.
 +
 +
The Afghans, who were a founding member of the Asian Football Confederation in 1954, have a long football history but only recently re-emerged on the world scene after decades of war and insurgency. When the Taliban ruled from 1996-2001, they severely restricted sports and football stadiums were used to stage executions of those who ran afoul of the Islamist movement's harsh laws.
 +
 +
Afghanistan has never played at the World Cup, or even at the Asian Cup. But the country has been getting better in recent years, rising up the FIFA rankings to No. 139 on the latest list.
 +
 +
On Wednesday, Mustafa Azadzoi put Afghanistan ahead early in the first half at Dashrath Stadium, and Sanjar Ahmadi doubled the lead in the second.
 +
 +
When it was over, the Afghan players walked around the field with Afghan flags draped on their shoulders. They then held hands and started to dance in a circle in celebration.
 +
 +
"I'm proud of my whole country. I congratulate my dear countrymen," Afghanistan goalkeeper Mansur Faqiryar said.
 +
 +
The win over India avenged the team's loss in the SAFF Championship final two years ago. India beat the Afghans 4-0 in the 2011 championship match.
 +
 +
In Kabul, some Afghans gathered in Mecca Market,[http://www.gifcn.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=3912889 Object believed an asteroid for 30 years found to be a comet], a store selling a variety of items, to watch the game on TV. Shortly after it ended, celebratory gunfire was heard around the capital.
 +
 +
"I am extremely happy, and I am very proud," said Waheedullah, who like many Afghans goes by one name. "How I can explain my feelings? From the beginning till now my eyes were glued to the TV. My friends and I were just praying, praying to be champions. It's one of the happiest days of my life."
 +
 +
Salahuddin, a police officer holding a Kalashnikov,[http://wiki.velogearance.com/%D0%A3%D1%87%D0%B0%D1%81%D1%82%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BA:Rovahomoimi#LeBron_James_Not_Talking_2014_Free_Agency_is_a_Bad_Sign_for LeBron James Not Talking 2014 Free Agency is a Bad Sign for], celebrated the historic victory with several other officers.
 +
 +
"Congratulations! Congratulations!" Salahuddin repeated to his colleagues.
 +
 +
Afghans began playing football about 90 years ago, and the country's national federation was founded in 1922. Afghanistan joined FIFA in 1948.
 +
 +
Throughout the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s,[http://www.berle-grendalag.no/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=64674 NJ lawmakers react to Obama address on Syria_0], football gained a strong following in the country, but it nearly died out during the 10-year Soviet occupation from 1979 to 1989 and the civil war that followed from 1992 to 1996.
 +
 +
After the hardline Taliban regime was toppled in 2001,[http://lashekinahdejehovainc.org/web/ Amy Alcott First American to Play Evian], sports in Afghanistan was reborn, with both cricket and football on the rise in international competitions.
 +
 +
The football team's success has been a point of unity in a country riven by ethnic divisions, with Afghans of all backgrounds praying for victory.</html>

ESPN basketball recruiting guru and San Antonio Spurs scouting coordinator  last week which colleges have had the most success on the recruiting trail in the past five years. Telep s methodology was simple: Which schools had recruited the most recruits ranked in ESPN s Top 100 in their class.
 +
 +
, here is the Top 10 actually 12 due to ties:
 +
 +
1. Kentucky (23 Top 100 recruits)<br>
 +
2,[http://liamanthonymordew.co.uk/landon-donovan-alexi-lalas-other-us-soccer-legends-appear-as-8/ Landon Donovan, Alexi Lalas, Other US Soccer Legends Appear as 8]. Arizona (16)<br>
 +
North Carolina (16)<br>
 +
4. Duke (14)<br>
 +
Texas (14)<br>
 +
6. Kansas (13)<br>
 +
7. Syracuse (12)<br>
 +
8. Baylor (11)<br>
 +
Indiana (11)<br>
 +
Memphis (11)<br>
 +
UCLA (11)<br>
 +
Villanova (11)
 +
 +
And now, each team s record in the NCAA Tournament over the past four seasons:
 +
 +
1. Kentucky (13-2) 2012 NCAA Championship<br>
 +
2. Duke (11-3) 2010 NCAA Championship<br>
 +
3. Kansas (11-4)<br>
 +
4,[http://cdelta.biz/ 5 Events To Mark The 9-11 Anniversary Tonight In NYC  CBS New York]. Syracuse (10-4)<br>
 +
5. Baylor (6-2)<br>
 +

 +
7. Arizona (5-2)<br>
 +
8. Indiana (4-2)<br>

9. UCLA (1-2)<br>

10. Texas (1-3)<br>
 +
11,[http://www.theactivetimes.com/oak-forest-neighbors-believe-criminals-using-gadget-unlock-ca Oak Forest neighbors believe criminals using gadge]. Memphis (1-3)<br>
 +
12. Villanova (1-3)
 +
 +
What do we glean from this?
 +
 +
First and foremost, recruiting is only one of many components that is needed to have success. It very well could be the most important, but seeing as schools like UCLA, Texas, Memphis, and Villanova have won just one NCAA Tournament game since 2010 suggest there are other factors in play. Is the head coach squandering talent? Perhaps the program is victim of several recruits who were one and done type players? Were key players injured during the season? Maybe a team just got unlucky?
 +
 +
There are no clear-cut answers. Many pundits would claim that Villanova s Jay Wright is a better coach than Baylor s Scott Drew, yet Drew is the one with a 6-2 NCAA Tournament record in this time frame. And then there is John Calipari, who has always been suspect as an in-game coach, but a master recruiter. The job he did with the 2011-12 Kentucky team seemed more to be about managing all of the talent on the team and using it in the most opportune way, rather than actually coaching it worked.
 +
 +
What is interesting to note is that two of the past four National Champions are not even on this list: Connecticut (2011) and Louisville (2013). Even crazier to think is that Shabazz Napier and Russ Smith didn t even make ESPN s Top 100 lists for their respective classes, meanwhile these two will make preseason All-American teams.
 +
 +
The moral of the story is: recruiting, in any sport, is an inexact science.</html>

== NASCAR Does the Right Thing With Penalties, but Doesn’t Go ==
 +
 +
<html>COMMENTARY | In a stunning turn of events Monday night in the Michael Waltrip Racing dive scandal,[http://www.userleaks.info/index.php?title=U%C5%BEivatel:Rovahomoimi#Former_Scotch_Plains_mayor_and_councilman_remembered Former Scotch Plains mayor and councilman remembered], NASCAR levied a hefty fine, handed down suspensions and docked each of the three MWR teams 50 points, a move that ultimately resulted in Martin Truex Jr. being knocked out of the Chase.
 +
Ryan Newman will take his place in the final wild-card spot.
 +
But in this instance, the penalties handed down to Michael Waltrip Racing simply were not severe enough. In fact, by actually giving out penalties against the teams in the first place, NASCAR is openly admitting wrongdoing, but at the same time saying it is limited in what it can actually do.
 +
NASCAR had to do something. All of the evidence pointed to blatant manipulation of the rules that knocked two deserving drivers out of the Chase and allowed two others to sneak in. The problem is, in this instance, Truex and Newman were not the only two drivers affected by this decision.
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +
WHAT HAPPENED
 +
To recap, with seven laps to go in the race at Richmond International Raceway on Saturday night, Ryan Newman was well on his way to winning the race, in the process claiming one of two wild-card spots in the Chase. As they ran, Jeff Gordon would have claimed the final spot in question via a top 10 finish. But with seven laps to go, Michael Waltrip Racing driver Clint Bowyer spun, bringing out the caution and bunching up the field.
 +
Was Bowyer s spin intentional? Even after review, NASCAR president Mike Helton admitted he still could not confirm or deny.
 +
What proved the smoking gun in the case against the team was when both Bowyer and fellow MWR teammate Brian Vickers pitted just as the field was going back to green. That much was clear when NASCAR reviewed the audiotapes from team manager : You ve got to pit this time. We need that one point.
 +
With both teams taking a dive in the final three laps, it proved just enough for Joey Logano to leapfrog Jeff Gordon into the top 10 in points, while Truex would slide past Newman for the final wild-card spot.
 +
As a result of the findings, NASCAR issued a $300,000 fine to MWR, suspended team manager Ty Norris, and Truex, Bowyer and Vickers were docked 50 pre-Chase points. Because the penalties were issued prior to the resetting of the points, Truex fell out of the final wild-card spot and Newman took his place.
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +
NOT ALL WRONGS MADE RIGHT
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +
In this case,[http://www.gxshxny.com/bbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=891175&fromuid=18462 'Sons of Anarchy' Recap- Season 6 Premiere Full of Tragedy and Cheatin], putting Newman into the field and at the same time leaving Gordon out is a bit of slap in the face. Both Gordon and Logano were innocent bystanders in the drama that unfolded, and by NASCAR admitting that MWR is guilty of manipulating the rules, but not making it right, hurts its credibility.
 +
In his statement Monday night, , We know from experience, if you try to look at the ripple effect, you can t cover all bases that s equitable and credible across the board.
 +
That much may be true, but in this case there was a direct cause and effect. Michael Waltrip Racing teammates Bowyer and Vickers cheated,[http://harrisonford.gossiplookout.com/ Clay Buchholz Gives Red Sox Everything They Could Ask for in Return to Rotation], and Gordon and Newman were left out of the Chase. To right the wrong for one and not the other is hard to understand.
 +
In this special case, the field should have been expanded to 13 drivers with Gordon given a spot.
 +
Or, perhaps,[http://help.wiki.worldwideschool.pl/index.php?title=U%C5%BCytkownik:Rovahomoimi#This_Day_In_Marlins_History-_In_Marlins_win.2C_Randy_Johnson_r This Day In Marlins History- In Marlins win, Randy Johnson r], Bowyer should have been made an example of. As the penalties were handed out prior to the resetting of the points, Bowyer s punishment was essentially a ghost penalty. Once the points are reset for the start of the Chase on Sunday, Bowyer will remain in exactly the same position.
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +
GORDON, WALTRIP SPEAK OUT
 +
 +
 +
 +
 +
While Gordon and Bowyer have a long history of disdain for one another, perhaps  that read: Feel bad for Truex. He got in under controversy now out due to it. But the guy who started all of this not effected at all??? Don t agree!
 +
At the same time,[http://small-business-advice.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=15098 Pittsburgh at Texas], on the other end of the spectrum, MWR boss : This wasn t a master plan or about a spin. It s about a split-second decision made by Ty to try to help a teammate. I stand by my people.
 +
While NASCAR did the right thing in issuing penalties in a case of clear violation of the rules, it simply didn t go far enough in letting Bowyer escape penalty and keeping Gordon out of the Chase.
 +
The issue may be resolved for now, but it is clear this controversy is far from over.
