	Proposed Missouri Homeowners Fair Play Act
		The FAIR Plan, for example, has notified MDI that it will not replace damaged siding and roofs, such as occurred in St. Louis, using the same criteria the state requires of all insurers.
		The FAIR Plan's scope is expanded from only basic residential and commercial fire (plus builders' risk and vandalism) policies to the regular coverage offered by Missouri property insurers, including full-scale homeowners, commercial fire and dwelling fire with earthquake endorsements for residences and other available options.
		The FAIR Plan would have to issue an acceptance or declination within three business days after an application and inspection report are filed and issue a policy effective immediately on the date when the premium is received.

	Fair and unfair play (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)

		Where the umpire considers that there are regular fast short pitched balls, that by their length, height and direction, coupled with the relative skill of the batsman is dangerous, the umpire calls no ball and cautions the bowler.

	Fair Play vs. Fair Game
		This is clearly (at least in my book) another example of unfair play or fair game in Crews's book (by fair game, of course, I mean something like the American colloquialism according to which when something is fair game, you are permitted to go after it, attack or even destroy it).
		He is also clearly having fun (fair enough) with something like the following idea: where a book is itself deconstructive, as it were, the deconstructors are forced to a hapless silence.
		To be fair to Crews, he mentions in his acknowledgements that the chapter in question is based on a lecture given at a conference which probably (I can only guess this) predates the publication of my own book.

	To play or not to play
		Firstly came the alleged causative factor of the crisis — the accusation by the umpires that the match ball had been tampered with, supposedly to gain unfair advantage for the Pakistan bowlers.
		Law 42 (paragraph 3) governing fair and unfair play specifically forbids changing the condition of the ball, and instructs the umpires to replace the ball should damage occur to it.
		Hair himself has been targeted for personal denigration: a strange solo condemnation since in almost every sentence of Laws 42 and 20 umpires are instructed to make their judgments "in consultation with the other umpire." As a result, cricket is in danger of losing sight of the trees because of the wood.

	The Hindu : Seven Indians hauled up by Match Referee
		Newcomer Virendra Sehwag, playing his second Test, was reported on two counts; claiming a catch at silly point of Jacques Kallis off the bowling of Harbhajan Singh (West Indies wicketkeeper Ridley Jacobs was banned for two matches three months ago in Zimbabwe for not maintaining the spirit of the game) and then for excessive appealing.
		As the specific law explains a fielder is not allowed to interfere with the seam and Tendulkar was caught by the camera in the very act of working on the seam, though not with intentions to change the condition of the ball.
		There is a clear message in the unpleasant episode, which is that the players at international level have to be educated about the laws of the game, especially Law 42 which details on the `fair and unfair play' part of the game.

		Moral principles such as fair play would then no longer be thrust upon the athlete but would have to be the result of his upbringing.
		The lesson from this is evident: nurturing fair play is only productive if it starts at the roots.
		The range of options to âre-establish equalityâ and consequently ensure a more balanced sports competition is varied: introducing age, weight and height categories, regulations for equipment used by athletes, or drawing starting numbers in races to mention only a few.

		The sole judges of fair and unfair play will be the blokes who run the game, and if they don't like you, you're out on your ear.
		Almost all the good players have fled to play overseas and the structure of the game has been completely wrecked by officials short on love for, or understanding of, the game but big on power and the wealth it brings.
		And, despite its dreadful playing standard, will now be allowed back into Test cricket to further diminish a playing standard already lowered by the politically motivated promotion of Bangladesh in 2000.
