This can’t be good
Sinners beat Saints: Continuing their unlikely run, the Seattle Seahawks, the only NFL team with a losing regular-season record to ever make the playoffs, defeated the New Orleans Saints on Saturday.
This sets a dangerous precedent. The Mariners have already drafted a petition to Major League Baseball, claiming they deserve a playoff spot based on the legal principal, in the original Latin, squeakus wheelum.
Lost your touch? Winter wear makers have developed special gloves that can be worn by people using iPhones and other touchscreen smart phones that typically don’t respond through conventional gloves (Page L1).

Will it lower the toilet lid, too? IRobot, which makes robotic vacuum cleaners such as the Roomba, has a new robot that tackles the unpleasant task of cleaning the bathroom floor. The maker claims the Scooba can remove 97 percent of bacteria from the floor (Page C2).
For an additional charge, you can equip the Scooba with a stun gun that delivers a mild electric shock to any male bathroom user with poor aim.
