As a Laker fan you learn not to worry about loses during the regular season, especially with the zen master Phil Jackson at the helm. After loses against Cleveland that made the Lakers look like they were made of actual human beings they come out against their long time rivals and look better than ever! The Celtics had the home court and the great energy throughout the game as well as a sell out crowd. They didn't however get the Lakers in panic mode. The Lakers never once lost their calm and collected selves, not once. Not when being outscored in the second quarter. Not when the Celtics were hitting big three's. Not even when their bench doesn't produce. With... 		A class where mind matters (13)
WHEN I was at school many years ago, my timetable never included a subject that came remotely close to what could be described as mindfulness. In fact, I'd never heard of the word. A quick scan of Tonbridge School's website revealed the classes involved pupils being taught meditation practices to "calm their minds, improve concentration, and deal with difficult emotions". It sounded intriguing and I wanted to know how these practices could help 14 and 15-year-olds cope with the "stresses of a busy life". Divinity teacher Richard Burnett, a housemaster at the High Street school, leads the classes which are taugh...

Do rings of Herbie the elm have age, climate data? (13)
contacted the Maine Forest Service about examining Herbie's trunk to see what can be learned about the tree's age and about the climate over the years. Peter Lammert of the Maine Forest Service said his computer has been clogged with e-mails from scientists interested in the stories that Herbie's growth rings might tell. In particular, Herbie's demise is bringing out of the woodwork highly specialized scientists who study tree rings: Dendroclimatologists, who look to tree rings for answers about the climate, and dendrochronologists, who specialize in determining the age of trees based on rings. The tallest American elm in New England, the 110-foot-tree survived 14... 		Haiti quake American donations (12)
a recession and job losses, the contagious giving has come in all forms old and new, underscoring the heartfelt, if fleeting generosity of Americans. In addition to Pacheco's old-fashioned volunteerism, Illinois residents have joined an unprecedented text-message funding campaign for the Red Cross. They have given nearly $200,000 to the Salvation Army through the Internet, not red kettles. Merchants are not just putting out jars but Tweeting promotions to donate proceeds of everything from car washes to pedicures to the Haiti-Ade cocktail making the rounds in Chicago. The outpouring for Haiti is likely the largest immediate response by Americans to an international disaster... 		Can SnoCross Adapt? (12)
Mono Skier X, which became a full medal event in 2007, was the first. Last summer saw Super X Adaptive (motocross) gain medal status as well. While all three are distinct, they share important traits not just with each other but with every X Games competition -- specifically, they require a delicate balance of skill, courage and showmanship."Every year we have our eyes and ears open for new additions to the Games, and these adaptive events fit perfectly," says Tim Reed, ESPN director of sports and competition. "They're what the Games are all about."Unlike its predecessors, Adaptive SnoCross will be a full medal event in its inaugural year. "It helps that we did ad...
As Groundhog Day nears, 10 things you probably didn't know about the tradition (12)
While not an official holiday, Groundhog Day is celebrated with wide enthusiasm every Feb. 2 as revelers gather around a bemused beast and wait with bated breath to see if spring will arrive early or if winter will continue to wreak its frozen mischief for the six subsequent weeks. Overcast days are preferred. According to lore, if the groundhog emerges (sometimes it takes a bit of coaxing) from its burrow at sunrise and sees its shadow, winter will prevail. On Staten Island, this year's event will feature a rematch of last year's contest between Staten Island Chuck, the grumpy prognosticator from the Staten Island Zoo, and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who, as the c... 		CMS job fair out, teacher auditions in (11)
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools will require prospective teachers to audition at "teaching camps" this year as part of a focus on finding talent rather than just filling classrooms. "We will discontinue the annual Spring Job Fair because it was designed to attract high numbers of applicants, not necessarily top performers," says a report Superintendent Peter Gorman sent to the school board Friday. "Instead, we will establish teaching camps where applicants must demonstrate teaching skills in front of a selection panel. Applicants who show strong skills will then be placed into a hiring pool." In more prosperous times, thousands lined up for the job fairs. Last... 		Texas among nation's leaders in laws to protect athletes, but many want to see more (11)
The University Interscholastic League, which oversees extracurricular activities in Texas public schools, is responsible for handing out those penalties. Mark Cousins, the league's policy director, said no one has failed to comply with the law so far. D.W. Rutledge is the executive director of the Texas High Coaches Association, which counts almost 20,000 members, and serves on the UIL medical advisory committee. The former football coach, who won four state championships in the state's highest classification, believes baseline testing will eventually be required in Texas.
