Last week Ohio State coach, Urban Meyer's shared how he can't shake the pain of loses.  Game loses.  Like, they actually never leave his mind, body or soul.  "You always remember those games more than the wins."  Sadly for Meyer's psychic, Saturday Clemson pounded No. 2 Ohio State at the Fiesta Bowl, with an unexpected 31-0 win.     story

As the local Arizona Public Service rep, Kevin Hartigan is basically in charge of keeping the Grand Canyon open.  There are power lines, for instance, headed from rim to canyon bottom that are 7000 feet long.  "Without power, the water pumps in the park stop working.  If the pumps stop working, water no longer flows into faucets, toilets, showers and drinking fountains . . . . If there is no water, the park must close."   The buck stops with Hartigan.    Interesting read -  story
