[/I][/B] [I]We did not find any reference to why the month of January or why the 12th of the month was picked. This holiday is referred to as a "National" day- However, we did not find any congressional records or presidential proclamations for this day. Even though we didn't, this is still a holiday that is publicized to celebrate.[/I] [I]So enjoy the day and have fun with it.[/I] [I][/I] [B][I]We found recognition[/I][/B][I] from calendar sites and personal Internet sites that blog and share information about this holiday. Some sites talk about dating and the best ways to ask a man out on a date. Others talk about the sexiest man they ever went out on a date with and who was the wildest date to name.[/I][/SIZE][/I] [B][FONT=Arial][SIZE=6][COLOR=#ff8000]SU News[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B] [IMG]https://cdn0.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/rmv5ueUAApdTxmE5-1R_KtbjCgo=/0x378:2102x1779/709x473/filters:format(webp)/cdn0.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/48539417/usa-today-9048177.0.jpg[/IMG] [B][URL='http://www.nunesmagician.com/2016/1/11/10747604/syracuse-basketball-statistics-orange-defense-struggling-near-basket']SU Basketball Advanced Statistics: Defense Struggling Near Basket (TNIAAM; Burke)[/URL][/B] [I]In this week's statistics column, we look at reasons for the Orange's troubles, as well as some other developing trends and notable stats.

[/I] [B][I]Syracuse is experiencing defensive issues in the low post [/I][/B] [I]In the final eight minutes and 15 seconds against North Carolina on Saturday, Syracuse surrendered 10 made field goals in the paint. That ultimately turned out to be the difference, as UNC used a 34-17 run in that span to pull away from the Orange. UNC, which scored a total of 46 points in the paint on Saturday, wasn't the first team to have success near the rim against the Orange. In four ACC games, SU has allowed 30 or more points to be scored in the paint each time; Pittsburgh had 34, Miami had 30 and Clemson had 40. ...[/I] [IMG]http://sujuiceonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/image2-300x296.jpg[/IMG] [B][URL='http://sujuiceonline.com/2016/01/12/orange-watch-potential-exists-for-historically-poor-syracuse-basketball-record/']Orange Watch: Potential Exists for Historically Poor Syracuse Basketball Record (the juice; Bierman)[/URL][/B] [I][B]Item: At 10-7 (0-4) after 17 games, and with 14 ACC games left to play including four of five games against nationally ranked (week of Jan. 11) North Carolina, Duke, Virginia, Pittsburgh, and Louisville coming on the road, is the unthinkable really thinkable? Could Syracuse suffer its worst season record during Jim Boeheim’s 40 year tenure (the mark is currently held by the 1981-82 NIT squad’s final 16-13 (.552) record, with the 1996-97 NIT team that finished 19-13 (.594) not too far behind)? First matters first, stopping a four game losing streak for only the fourth time in the Boeheim era hosting Boston College Wednesday night (7:00 p.m. ET / ACCRSNs-ESPN3).[/B][/I] [I]It wasn’t even 23 months ago that we were swooning over a 25-0 start and a No. 1 ranking for the 2013-14 Orange, not only coming off the program’s fifth trip the Final Four the previous spring, but also culminating an incredible five year, 149-36 (.805) blitz of being a national semifinalist, another trip to the Elite Eight and two Sweet 16 appearances, that coincided the season before the commemorative first basket made by Carmelo Anthony during his namesake building’s ribbon-cutting ceremony in Sept. 2009. ...

Robert Tifft, 42, told Syracuse.com that the shooter, former cop Mark Miller, had [URL='http://www.syracuse.com/crime/index.ssf/2016/01/cicero_road_rage_victim_shooter_got_off_easy_because_hes_an_ex-cop.html#incart_m-rpt-1']gotten off easy[/URL] because of his law enforcement background. Miller claimed he [URL='http://www.syracuse.com/crime/index.ssf/2016/01/cicero_road_rage_investigation.html#incart_story_package']pointed a gun at Tifft in self-defense[/URL] during the Dec. 2 road-rage incident, but didn't mean to pull the trigger. Tifft suffered a non-life-threatening injury. Miller pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor today and will have his guns taken away, but faces no further punishment if he stays out of trouble for a period of time, said his lawyer, Rome Canzano. He's due to be officially sentenced Tuesday. [B][/B] Miller, 49, is former military police and previously worked as a city of Oswego police officer, his ex-wife told Syracuse.com. Tifft said that Miller should not have been allowed to plead guilty only to a misdemeanor. "If you got connections, you got connections," Tifft told Syracuse.com this afternoon. "But the law is the law. You got all these gangbangers shooting the streets up. If they see this guy getting a slap on the hand, what do you think's gonna happen now?" Tifft added that he didn't know what law enforcement were doing before today's news. ... [/I] [/QUOTE]
