Some things happened this week worth noting...
Some things happened this week worth noting... The AFL-CIO disintegrated. A tenth planet was found.

The Little League is in turmoil because one Domingo Infante apparently communicated to his team in Spanish, and the umpire couldn't figure out if he was telling his team members to cheat. So the umpire outlawed the use of Spanish. Why am I telling you this? Everybody who ever played or watched baseball has had a grudge against an umpire for an unfair decision, but there's nothing that can be done about it. The umpire's word is final. In this case, it's causing an international uproar. The Little League is claiming nothing can be done, but this is the kind of injustice that demands a scapegoat. This umpire is going to get fired.
