Video: Chris Jessee
About two seconds during tonight’s Holiday Bowl certainly changed that as Mack’s stepson Chris Jessee accidentally became very famous for all the wrong reasons. If the Longhorns hadn’t come back for the big bowl victory he might have ended up being infamous.

Isha Jain Wins $100,000 Scholarship
Isha Jain, a 16-year old from Bethlehem, PA, won a $100,000 scholarship as the individual winner in the Siemens Competition in Math, Science and Technology at New York University Monday.
Her project, ''Bone Growth in Zebrafish Fins Occurs via Multiple Pulses of Cell Proliferation,'' adds a new dimension to the understanding of human bone growth and the ability to treat bone injuries and disorders, judges said.
Jain, a senior at Freedom High, identified a cellular mechanism underlying bone growth spurts, and her work was published in the journal Developmental Dynamics.
At age 9, Jain created a paradigm to explain the molecular structure of candy. To this day, her research has been taught in classes across the nation.

Bhutto killing - Nation Into Chaos
The murder of 54-year-old Bhutto, one of Pakistan’s most famous and enduring politicians, sparked violence that killed at least nine people; 20 others also died after the assassin blew himself up.
Musharraf blamed terrorists for the slaying. “Today, after this tragic incident, I want to express my firm resolve ... we will not rest until we eliminate these terrorists and root them out,” he told a national television audience.
The gunning down of President Pervez Musharraf’s most powerful opponent yesterday threw the nation into chaos just 12 days before elections, and threatened its already unsteady role as a key fighter against Islamic terror.

Benazir Bhutto Killed!!
Pakistan opposition leader Benazir Bhutto was assassinated Thursday in a suicide bombing that also killed at least 20 others at a campaign rally.
"At 6:16 p.m. she expired," said Wasif Ali Khan, a member of Bhutto's party who was at Rawalpindi General Hospital where she was taken after the attack.
Bhutto's assassination presents an opportunity for Musharraf. "It's very possible Musharraf will declare [another] state of emergency and postpone the elections," Rubin continues. "That will confirm in many people's minds the idea that the military is behind" the assassination. For it's part, the U.S. will likely "be scrambling to say the election either needs to be held as planned or postponed rather than canceled, but Musharraf is in a position to preempt that."
