Josh Smith's Buzzer Beater Lifts Hawks Past Rockets (VIDEO)
Last night the Houston Rockets and surprising Atlanta Hawks were locked up at 103-103 with mere seconds left on the clock. With three seconds remaining, Hawks guard Mike Bibby fired off a shot that rattled off the rim and backboard, appearing to send the game to overtime. Yet forward Josh Smith flew off the paint and shoved the ball through the hoop with 0.7 seconds left in regulation. The 11-2 Hawks prevailed, 105-103, and continue to hold a one-game lead over the Orlando Magic in the Southeast division.

Dear Redacted
(Wednesday, July 25, 2007)
We are home in Arizona as of 1 am July 24. EXACTLY one year after we arrived..to the day...from our terrible war adventure.
It was a long hard trip (redacted). Good and bad...mostly closure of some things. Letting go of the ideal of "expatriatism" for now. It has been my central motivation and I realize now that I must move forward and I must move in this direction and at this pace.

Yesterday it was exactly two years ago that I began my exile in my own hometown. The irony of that nearly drove me ma… Continue
