Washington Nationals outfielder Jayson Werth shakes beer and champagne out of his hair and beard while celebrating with teammates after the team clinched the National League East Division championship following their MLB baseball game against the Philadelphia Phillies.
Gosh we wish you’d credited this GREAT photo. We’re re-blogging anyway. Here’s Thomas Boswell on the Nat’s clinch.
Considering the occasions in which I’ll be able to caption a photo “Shani shakes beer and champagne out of her hair.”

You grew up in St. Augustine, Fla., then went to Howard University for 3 years. Why there? What was that like?
I went to Howard because I was really into hip hop, and Howard is basically hip hop university. Liked it very much. It’s a unique opportunity for a white person in America to be a minority for a while. Three years at Howard, took a year off, eventually finished school back in St. Augustine at Flagler College.When did you decide to become a journalist?
I never really consciously decided, it just turned out that writing was really my only marketable skill. I wrote for a comedy magazine that Chris Rock started at Howard while I was there.
Really don’t know why I didn’t know Hamilton Nolan went to HU — or that he wrote for the now-defunct Illtop.
There’s lots of good stuff about Looper, but I fundamentally can’t get behind stories that feature the Looper/Back To The Future paradoxical treatment of time travel.
The best time travel scenarios, I think, are the ones like 12 Monkeys and The Terminator that offer a Heraclitan treatment…
Haven’t seen Looper yet, but Matt is exactly right about how stupid time travel paradoxes can be. Give me alternate timelines (Star Trek — which actually had Spock Prime and Spock ‘09 making fun of Kirk’s fear of paradoxes) or prophecy any day.
