6 What in the world

First Presidency Christmas message
"In celebrating the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ our thoughts turn to that sacred occasion when He was born 'The Prince of Peace' (Isaiah 9:6). He promised: 'He that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life' (John 8:12). Truly, Jesus Christ is our Savior and Redeemer who was 'wounded for our transgressions . . . and with his stripes we are healed' (Isaiah 53:5).

"Our prayer this Christmas season is that the light and testimony of the Savior's divine mission will come into our hearts and be reflected in our lives and in our homes.

"May each of us be blessed, not only at this Christmas season, but also throughout the coming year. May our faith in Jesus Christ increase as we follow His example in all we do and say."

Bowl games
The first bowl game of the season will be in New Mexico on Saturday, December 18, at 2:00 p.m., with BYU meeting UTEP. Boise State will meet Utah in the Las Vegas Bowl on Wednesday, December 22, at 8:00 p.m. Both games will be carried on ESPN.

Wacky weather
So, what's up with Atlanta being colder than northern Utah? And snow dumping all over western Washington?
