Some thoughts:
1. All warning horns are now sounded 15 seconds prior to the end of the timed interval.
2. The wording change on an opponent "touching" a dribble codifies what we have previously allowed.
3. The legal touching to end a throw-in is going to have further ramifications. We'll have to wait and see if the timing rules are also going to be changed so that the clock starts when a throw-in is legally touched. Right now it starts when the ball is simply touched.
4. Whether we think that the adding of the NOT closely-guarded signal is good or bad, we can at least stop nitpicking its use by NFHS officials.
5. Good editorial clarifications: hard items in the hair are prohibited, screener must stay vertical and with feet shoulder width apart, adding deceitfully to the delaying returning after being legally OOB.
6. The Fashion Police strike again as "Uniforms" is the #1 POE.

Yup, good to know that we have to be the fashion police as a POE. Isn't there more important stuff for us to worry about?
