Eric Alvarez of WZTV said during a recent broadcast the NCAA would not give the station permission to use highlight clips for their sports segment, so he decided to get "a little creative."

"And, before you ask: Yes, I did make this segment with things I found lying around my desk," Alvarez said.

The clips that played during Alvarez' segment featured a makeshift hoop composed in part by a key chain ring, Lego Batman and Superman and a rubber duck.

    I use a number of computers and different OSes (as well as different browsers), but the problem affected all of them. I do see below an AC report of something that might be related, though it's hard for me to take ACs seriously. I wrote a longer reply to the other reply...

    For now I'll just keep collecting data. Network probe time? Or take it to the ISP as a possible security problem? Now I'm reminded of some recent problems with HTTPS.
