1. Colt Defense -- Touchdowns
   The Colt defense pounded Broncos running back Clinton Portis and smothered wide receivers Rod Smith and Ashley Lelie and tight end Shannon Sharpe. The defense didn't give up a touchdown until 7:04 remained in the game and the outcome was no longer in doubt. Portis finished with 68 yards on 17 carries, well short of his 122-per-game average. Quarterback Jake Plummer completed 23-of-30 passes for 181 yards and one touchdown, but he was intercepted twice by cornerback David Macklin. Plummer ... turned over the ball on a fumble in the third quarter.
2. The Vikings -- Teams
   Vikings rookie running back/savior ran for 296 yards in today’s surprising 35-17 win over the San Diego Chargers. That total is one yard more than former Raven/jailbird Jamal Lewis who put up 295 on his current team, the Cleveland Browns back in 2003. Along with the 296 yards, Peterson ... found the endzone three times on Sunday. That other running back on the other team, LaDainian Tomlinson was out run by 255 yards.

4. Baltimore Ravens
   The Baltimore Ravens are a professional American football team based in Baltimore, Maryland. They currently belong to the Northern Division of the American Football Conference (AFC) in the National Football League (NFL). The Ravens have won one Super Bowl title, Super Bowl XXXV in 2001 against the New York Giants.The history of the Baltimore Ravens is unusual due to the unprecedented actions taken by the cities of Baltimore and Cleveland, Ohio, and the NFL in 1996. On November 6, 1995, then-Cleveland Browns owner Art Modell announced his intention to move the team to Baltimore, citing the inadequacy of Cleveland Stadium and the lack of a sufficient replacement along with his heavy debt. The decision triggered a flurry of legal activity that ended when representatives of Cleveland and the NFL reached a settlement on February 8, 1996. It stipulated that the Browns' name, colors, and history of the franchise were to remain in Cleveland.
5. Arizona Cardinals -- Season
   With the salary cap situation not being the best for the Arizona Cardinals there is talk that they may cut their featured back Edgerrin James. James has a seemingly small cap number of $6.75 million for the 2008 season. The Cards would actually save $5 million of his salary if they released him.
6. Cleveland Browns
   The original Cleveland Browns were one of the NFL’s most consistent teams, posting just 12 losing records in 46 seasons. Head coach Paul Brown collected three league championships and seven division titles from 1950 to 1962. One of Cleveland Browns’s first stars, running back Jim Brown, became one of the most prolific runners in professional football history, capturing eight rushing titles during his nine-year career. Cleveland Browns made the playoffs seven times during the 1980s, including three AFC Championship Game appearances. These teams featured players such as quarterback Bernie Kosar and running backs Earnest Byner and Kevin Mack.
7. Big Run
   Big Run is a tributary stream of the South Branch Potomac River, belonging to the Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay watersheds. Big Run flows through the city of Romney and the campus of the West Virginia Schools for the Deaf and Blind in Hampshire County, West Virginia. The stream is known by local residents as Town Run and Town Creek.
8. Sufism -- Prophet Muhammad
   Sufism presents God as one who is indefinable. Their definitions are circular, so flamboyant and extreme as to lend no enlightenment, only a sense of a being that is unreachable. Muhammad ibn Mūsā al-Wāsitī said: “As his essence is not caused, so his attributes are not caused: to attempt to display the eternal is to despair of understanding anything of the realities of the attributes or the subtleties of the essence (of God.)”
9. Islam and the West -- Islamic Ngos
   Without doubt the overdue dialogue between Islam and the West has begun. Perceived and imagined dichotomies between the two are being narrowed by shared moral and religious values, and common prayer for a future of peace, prosperity and justice of all the world’s people. Scholars, Western and Islamic (some both), have approached one another as equals and have treated dialogue as a universal good rather than a device for advocacy of special interests. In such enlightened interaction is hope for a 21st century that will be a period of Islamic and Western cooperation and not the confrontation that has dominated the past.
10. Nat King Cole -- Nat King Cole Trio
    Nat King Cole was one of the truly great pianists, inspired and he was a superb pop ballad singer. Nat Cole grew up in Chicago and by the age of 12 he was playing organ and singing in church; his three brothers (Eddie, Fred and Isaac) would become jazz musicians. After making his recording debut with Eddie Cole's Solid Swingers in 1936, he left Chicago to lead the band for the revival of the revue Shuffle Along, and settled in Los Angeles when the show ended. Cole struggled a bit, put together a trio with guitarist Oscar Moore and bassist Wesley Prince and eventually settled in for a long residency in Hollywood. In the early days (documented on radio transcriptions), most of the group's repertoire was comprised of instrumentals although the Trio often sang jivey novelty vocals together.
