Jade Scaife Archbishop Spalding, senior, forward The toughest player to defend on the No. 1 team, Scaife led the Cavaliers to a 29-2 record and the Interscholastic Athletic Association of Maryland A Conference championship.

She had 28 points and 18 rebounds in a double-overtime win, 70-57, over nationally ranked Riverdale Baptist.

Be still, my somewhat jaded American Catholic heart: A Jesuit? A Jesuit from Argentina who, as archbishop then cardinal, eschewed the chauffeur-driven limousine for the public buses of Buenos Aires? A Jesuit devoted to social justice and to helping the poor? And, he took the name of Francis, one of the coolest saints. Excuse me while I have a somewhat positive reaction to the smoke signals from Rome. Here we were - that is, me and a lot of my friends among the heretical faithful - thinking the whole process of electing a new pope was an exercise in identifying the safest old European conservative in red shoes.

ELMONT, N.Y. -- Jade Flush, a 4-year-old filly being trained by Nick Zito for the Breeders' Cup Distaff, apparently took a bad step at the end of her workout yesterday morning at Belmont Park, suffered a fairly severe in-line fracture of her right foreleg and will race no more.Zito speculated later that the injury might be traced to an overextended effort that his filly made two weeks ago in the Spinster Stakes at Keeneland in Lexington, Ky., when she ran second by a head to Inside Information.

Please, what have we done to deserve another Joe Eszterhas movie? OK, we acquitted O.J.Arriving in the form of national penance less than four weeks after the last Joe Eszterhas disgrace, "Showgirls," here's "Jade," from that smokin' Eszterhas pen, as directed in the highest "French Connection" style by William Friedkin. Imagine a psycho-sexual thriller written by a man who hates and fears women, and directed by a man who loves to wreck cars, and you have an idea of the recondite pleasures of this idiotic film.

Teammates nicknamed her "Pinky" - the color she crochets into delicate blankets. But on the mat, very little is soft about Western Tech's Jade Hendricks. The sophomore has had her hand raised in victory six times and has been pinned only once in five losses. Three coaches have forfeited bouts rather than risk their athletes' losing to Hendricks, a defensive wrestler whose balance helps her control male opponents. Her coach once watched Hendricks pin someone, return to the bench and begin crocheting.

On the home front, Mick Jagger reveled in his role as paterfamilias. He was photographed sitting in an armchair holding Elizabeth Scarlet, flanked by the baby's half sisters, Karis and Jade. Although Jade lived with Bianca and Karis with her mother (Marsha Hunt) in London, whenever the girls visited their father in New York he insisted on personally screening their boyfriends. He admitted that for a teen-age boy, the experience of meeting Mick Jagger before taking out his daughter must have been "horrific."

With the possible exception of Mayan calendar followers and all others who expect the world to end in a matter of hours, is there a gloomier bunch around metropolitan Baltimore than Ravens fans? Rarely in the history of professional sports have people with so little to grouse about made themselves so miserable. It can't be a Baltimore thing. Just three months ago, this city was thrilled over the unexpected good fortune of a hometown team that hoped to - in the final days of its season - capture a playoff spot.

Having just observed dozens of my fellow citizens standing in line for more than an hour to vote, I started to feel good about the country again. Some 430,000 Marylanders took advantage of five days of early voting this year, so many that Sandy Rosenberg, the veteran state delegate from Baltimore, says he'll be filing a bill in the next legislative session to expand the opportunities for early voting. I drove away from the polls thinking: Well, we've been through an ugly, money-soaked political season, but people still embrace and respect the process.

As they get older and feel the press of time, some men need to condense into a short span all that they feel they've missed before it's too late; they worry about their legacy and what the eulogist might say of them. Others are more relaxed about the whole thing; they fear neither time nor public opinion. They realize they can't change the world and look around with wonderment at those who do. Take Mike Miller - please. He's the president of the Maryland Senate who, with a great mane of white hair, looks in profile like a founding father, or perhaps an early 19th Century politician in the spirit of Clay and Calhoun, names he uttered in the State House last week after the 2012 General Assembly ended badly, without a budget compromise.

Woke up this morning and it was Opening Day. I don't care how jaded of an Orioles fan you may be (or a grizzled sportswriter for that matter), Opening Day is always cool. I was reminded of that when I talked to Orioles' lefty Troy Patton on Wednesday about making the team. He's been in the big leagues before, but never on Opening Day. He was jumping out of his cleats with excitement. This will be the 16th Opening Day I have covered - of 21 at Camden Yards - and the 12th in which I have been an everyday member of the Orioles media (yes, I am old)

When Bob Ullman was hired to coach the Coppin State women's softball team last August, he called his new players together – all five of them – and gave them a can-do speech about pulling together to make history. When informal practices began a month later, participation varied between two and six players. But by the time practice officially started in January, after Ullman's abreviated recruiting class turned up four new players, Coppin at least had enough to field a team.

The 55 souls gathered at Faith Tabernacle Apostolic Church kept worshiping Sunday evening when a flash of light danced across the stained-glass windows. Just a police car responding to a call, they figured, a common enough sight in this part of East Baltimore. Probably nothing too serious. But a parishioner standing on the sidewalk knew something was very wrong. On the far side of Ashland Avenue, a crowd rushed from an alley screaming, "You shot? You shot?" The panic was understandable.
