JU rebounds big against CSU
Related Links
CHARLESTON, S. C. – Safety Jordan Dewhirst scored two touchdowns and freshman Terrance Bryant returned a punt for another score and Jacksonville University scored its first touchdown of the season as the Dolphins beat Charleston Southern 31-10 here Saturday.
After a low-scoring first half, Dewhirst scored the Dolphins' very first touchdown of the season when he intercepted a pass by CSU's Malcolm Dixon and returned it 39 yards for the score with 10:11 to play in the third quarter for a 10-0 lead.
The Bucs (0-2) responded by starting their next drive with a 72-yard pass from Dixon to wide receiver Nathan Perera to the JU 3-yard line. The Dolphins (1-1) stiffened and CSU had to settle for a 26-yard field goal from Mark Deboy with 8:52 to play in the third.
Bryant, a freshman from Fort Walton Beach, Fla., put JU up 17-3 when he fielded a punt at his own 45, stumbled at midfield, found himself and went in for the score with 9:24 to play in the game.
About five minutes later, the JU offense scored its first touchdown when quarterback Kade Bell hit tight end Andy Robustelli on a 46-yard pass with 4:38 to play.
"I knew where I was going with the ball,'' he said. "He's (Robustelli) a mismatch man. They showed blitz so I check out (of his original play), he was one-on-one and beat his man.''
After a CSU touchdown, Dewhirst caught an onside kick attempt in the air and returned it 44 yards for his second touchdown of the game.
"It surprised me a little,'' Dewhirst said. "Before that I was thinking 'don't let this come to me' but it came right at me and I had a good block (from Andre Addison) and everything worked out.''
Coach Kerwin Bell lauded the team effort.
"It's great when everybody gets involved and understands they have a part to play,'' he said. "We tell the special teams 'don't go out to get through the play, go out there to make a difference.' I thought everybody did that.''
Kade Bell ended the game completing 10 of 27 passes for 209 yards and Robustelli had 100 yards receiving as the Dolphins had 307 yards on offense.
"Everybody did their part and we were all on the same page,'' Kade Bell said. "The line played great and I think we're getting there.''
The teams traded yardage, but not many points, in the first half.
he Dolphins, who had 178 total yards in their opener against Georgia Southern, ran for 91 and passed for 106 in the half.
Both teams were plagued by turnovers and penalties as JU was flagged five times, many of them at crucial times, and the Bucs three. Charleston Southern also fumbled three times with one being recovered by JU's Mike Mayoral and a second by Dolphin Antonio McRae.
The Dolphins put up the only points in the first two quarters when Dylan Lynch connected on a 37-yard field goal with 6:20 to play in the first quarter. Lynch missed from 29 yards in the second quarter.
"We just weren't finishing drives, Kerwin Bell said. "We missed a couple of passes in the first half and had a couple of drops in the second half and that's four touchdowns. We moved the ball to good position, we just didn't finish. That comes with calming down. I thought we made big strides offensively.''
The loss was the 14th consecutive for Charleston Southern and its 20th in 21 games.
The Dolphins play host to Webber International Saturday at 1 p.m. in their home opener Saturday.

UC quarterback Munchie Legaux when asked about the similarities between he and Teddy Bridgewater: "I'm better."— Mike Rutherford (@CardChronicle) October 23, 2012
To the list of items comparing two very different players!
Arm: They are both strong. Actually, they combine to have four arms, so all four arms are probably strong. Bridgewater's is far more accurate -- he's completing 73.4 percent to Legaux's 53.3 percent. Legaux takes bigger shots, trailing his adversary by a yard per attempt but topping him by two per completion.
He also has maybe the weirdest delivery in all of college football right now, which I count as a positive because it entertains me:
Mark it Teddy, though.
Legs: Bridgewater is nimble and elusive, but this is not a competition. Legaux, perhaps a poor man's Denard Robinson, averages 44 yards a game on the ground to Bridgewater's 11.
General aptitude and so forth: They've turned the ball over at an almost identical rate throughout their careers, with about 32 attempts per interception apiece.
Though Legaux is a junior and Bridgewater a sophomore, the latter has far more playing experience, throwing as many attempts in 2011 alone as Legaux has in his entire college career.
One would probably also argue that Bridgewater has better receivers to work with overall, with the Cardinals slightly outrecruiting Cincy as of late. But Munchie's just made this whole thing a one-on-one showdown anyway.
We've got to go Bridgewater here.
Name: Oh please.
Verdict: This is closer than you'd think. Bridgewater is probably the Big East's best player and still has a very high ceiling, but at this point in their careers, but one would not be insane to prefer Legaux.
I'd take Bridgewater, but we'll find out for sure in a few days anyway.

Pours a deep amber with a nice foamy head that dissipates quickly, with minimal lace evident. Very rich hoppy aroma that has kick. The taste is as expected for a typical American style India Pale Ale. Decent mouthfeel and a highly drinkable brew. Ideal with any summer grilling fare. King Brewring Company is new to me, having just discovered it on the shelves at Milwaukee's Discount Liquor. I'm interested in their other styles as they become avaiable, or I'll seek them out on my summer trips to Michigan.

Wow a very unexpected find down here in NC this beer was hard enough to find back home,poured a deep burnt orange with fluffy,sticky white head that left globs of lace behind as it settled.Pine and grapefruit are big here in the nose this is defiently an American IPA profile going on with this beer maybe a touch of caramel in there as well.The flavors seem to fall a little flat there is some citrus and pine flavor wise but it doesnt really jump out at ya I also picked up a little caramel sweetness.A bit watery in the mouthfeel department not letting the flavors really jump out,still pleasant enough and drinkable.

2.65/5 rDev -19.2%
Tawny-amber in hue with a copper infusion; yeast sediment released from the bottle slowly clouded the liquid. It looked like a mini-sandstorm sweeping the countryside. Off-white head, frothy, at the apex the bubbles created two fingers of head. Once settled, head retention was solid; the foam slowly faded to a bubbly cap. The subsequent lacing was spotty but more organized and widespread then average. I like how this beer looks.
Hops dominate the nose but the nose isnt dominated by hops. A nice burst of citrus zest and grapefruit rinds can be found. Plus hints of pine and oranges; the malt offers kisses of caramel and sugar. Low potency; the potential for greatness is there but, alas, the bouquet is agreeable but far from amazing. Turn up the hops! Ive smelled hoppier APAs. Nevertheless, I am a sucker of a hoppy beers; its inviting by default.
The palate is a letdown. Watery more on that later; there is minimal bitterness. I taste pine, wood, bark; there are some citrus notes. The hops need to be brighter, louder more bitterness would be ideal. Dry maltiness; I smelt sugar in the nose but I dont taste any. The malt profile is a bore. Empty finish white noise; clean with almost no aftertaste. IPAs need to have hop bitterness lingering on the tongue. Im done here, this is a poor IPA.
Medium/medium-light in body, watery, the low carbonation doesnt help matters. The mouthfeel is wimpy; serious work is needed. I dont advocate cheating but steroids might be the answer.
Am I drinking water? Ive had tap water with more bitterness! Does simplicity and ease make it drinkable? Technically, I suppose but not in my book. I have no desire to drink another. While this beer was a dud I do need to thank RedHaze for the bottle, I would have never gotten the chance to try this with out you. Thanks!

Poured from a 12oz bottle into a US tumbler pint glass.
A: The beer is a light brown color with a thin off-white head that fades quickly and leaves a thin lace on the glass.
S: The aroma is of caramelized malts, hops, some citrus and a little smokiness.
T: The taste comes right at you with strong flavors of pale hops, caramel, tea and citrus. It has more of an English IPA taste to it but more flavorful than most other beers in that style, yet its not quite the typical American IPA hop bomb flavor either. The malt character is pretty hearty and theres a decent balance. The after-taste is slightly bitter.
M: Crisp and smooth, medium body, medium carbonation, finish is clean and very dry.
D: Tasty, goes down easily, not too filling, decent representation of style, however as I mentioned previously it seems to be more like an English IPA. Its a decent beer overall, but it certainly wouldnt be my first choice.

tasted at classic wines beer tasting in east lansing, michigan.
i was poured a deep copper colored sample with a thin sheet for a head.
the aroma was hoppy was a under laying tone of malt.
the flavor was hops, hops, and more hops.
in my notes i gave this an over all of 3.5, it was on the over hopped side for my tastes, i also thought maybe if they cut back on the hops more makt and yeast flavor wold come through.

Poured from a 12 oz bottle bought at Oliver T's.
The first thing I noticed was a five finger head. This bottle was way overcarbonated. The serving temp was 40 but still overcarbed. The apperance was the only thing that resembled an IPA. The smell was fairly weak for an IPA in my opinion. The tasted was sparkling like champagne. A side effect of the carbonation. I must have had a bad bottle because the carbonation took away from everything that could have been good about this one.

This beer pours a hazy orange tinted tan. A fine dirty white head developed and held fast for only a moment. Lacing was plentiful. There are slow moving bubbles and fast moving bubbles, but it is somewhat light on the effervescence. The nose is composed of a nice citrus quality and some less pronounced browned caramel malt tones and yeastiness. The nose is pretty subdued which is surprising. It has decent hop character, but the malt side is a little impoverished. The flavour progresses from a light fruitiness into a pronounced dry and bitter finish. The less than pungent nose almost fooled me into thinking this wasn't going to be a real IPA. I might say grapefruit type citrus as a description. The hops are killer here, it just seems like it would go from good to fabulous with a bit more sweetness. This actually is a pure representation of the style. It is good. The mouthfeel is light due to the lighter malt profile. The drinkability is good here as this is a solid IPA. There is nothing unique and spectacular. Overall, a good drinker with good flavour. Although I hate to describe beers by dropping names of other beers, this actually reminded me of a slightly less interesting Founders Centennial.

I sampled this at the Michigan Brewers Guild Summer Fest.
A: Golden-bronze, white head, no retention or lace.
S: Very citrusy (grapefruit), a little pine, slight pale malt.
T: Fresh/green hops (grapefruit), grainy, slight acidity. Not enough bitterness.
M: Light to moderate body and carbonation.
D: Average. It'd certainly be better with a crispier bitterness.

2.53/5 rDev -22.9%
A: Foggy copper color with a huge head of frothy foam. High levels of carbonation, and nice lacing in the glass. A small amount of sediment lay at the bottom of the glass.
S: Light aroma, with traces of hops, and a mild grassy character. Not much else.
T: Full flavor of dry hops, mild aftertaste of sweet malt. Nuances of wet, fermenting grain and alcohol. Very one sided, with the dry hops dominating.
M: Carbonation was far too high. Otherwise it was medium light bodied and again, one dimentional on the palate.
D: One and done for me. A lacklustre representation of the style.

A- Poured kind of carefully after my over-carbonation issue with the two fisted old ale from King- I didn't know if this was a foamer too. It was. About 3/4'' of beer and the rest was head in my first pour into the glass. Way too much carbonation. It did look good though with a very nice hazy orange liquid below a monstrous white and creamy head.
S- Very earthy with some citrus hop profile. It's almost as if I am picking up some rye in this. Very interesting. A little musty. Not too bad at all, but nothing really impresses me.
T- I was initially shocked. I swear there is rye in this. Tasty. Kind of different for the style. But I am not complaining.
M- A little too foamy in the mouth. I wonder what it going on at this brewery with the carbonation. Good flavor, too much carbonation.
D- A very interesting IPA. I was initially skeptical, but by the end I was kind of impressed. Fix the carbonation issues and we may have a winner.

Hmmm well it resembles an IPA. Dark amber with a slightly off white head that is full and contains big bubbles and fades away quickly leaving little lace.
Candied citrusy hop aroma with a caramel malt that is nice. Floral esters on the ending. Not an overly complex aroma but pleasant nonetheless.
The one thing going for this beer is it is nicely balance. On the other hand it's pretty straight forward and doesn't help lend a hand too you imagination. A toffee malt middle with a piney hop with slight floral flavors that leaves a chewy bitterness in the finish that isn't greatly exciting.
Worth a try but there are other fish in the sea worth acquiring.

Undated 12oz poured into a pint glass.
Somewhat hazed copper under a half inch of off white that shows decent retention. The lace is an even sheet of micro bubbles.
The nose has a good amount of citrus and pine with a touch of malty sweetness underneath. Not as bold as other offerings in this style but it shows good balance.
There is even more balance in the taste which is a nice mix of sweet malts upfront flowing seamlessly into citric hop flavor. Again, not as bold as other American IPAs. Perhaps this is more deserving being labeled as an English IPA.
Moderate mouth that benefits from the malt profile and is washed away cleanly. A solid drinker that doesn't get too bitter yet has plenty of character.

An IPA with a cloudy amber color, a giant light tan head and plenty of clumpy lace. The aroma is polite citrus hop and spicey brown sugar. I get an average body feel with good carbonation and a heavy clove and minty herbal hop. There is a malty background. Kind of different, pretty drinkable, some wheat notable as you work through it. Solid IPA.

Great looking and smelling brew, not really my cup of tea in the taste department. Nice orange-brown body with a thin layer of tan head that leave nice lacing. Hop nose is quite citrucy with a strong grapefruit aroma. Medium mouthfeel with a strong but not overpowering bitterness. Not a bad IPA.

Hazy with the yeast pour, this beer is a deep gold, topped with a modest, lasting white head. Good lacing. Mild aroma, simplistic piney hops hide in the glass. Not much else besides an underlying base pale malt presence. The flavor opens with grainy, toasty pale malt, quickly followed by agressive piney hop bitterness. Clean. Medium to full bodied. Finishes dry. Slight pear fruitiness. A minimalist IPA. Good, and drinkable, but lacking in complexity.

3.25/5 rDev -0.9%
The beer poured into the glass hazy amber brown with an off-white, almost tannish head, which rose tall and fell slowly as it laced the glass.
The aroma was malty with a grassy bit of lightly citrusy hops through the head. The malty aroma was mostly caramel.
The flavor was bitter with a bit or a grassy, citrusy and vegetal flavor. The beer contained some caramel malt flavor, but the odd vegetal flavor mixed with citrus really detracted.
The finish was even with a lasting bit of grassy hop flavor into the aftertaste. The body was medium but seemed very watery. A very boring IPA with something odd going on in the middle, not anything like an infection, but more like a hop flavor.
12 ounce bottle.

2.9/5 rDev -11.6%
Aggresive pour produced a medium colored amber beer. Overflowing head took a few minutes to shrink down, Slightly above average of rising carbonation. Clumpy lace spots.
A decent citric start to the fisrt whiff. A lemon scent. As the first aromas continued in the nose a faint pine finish became evident. Further whiffs brought a more rounded light malt scent.
Very sharp bitter taste. A hint of pine develops into a blend of dirty citric taste. There is a very plastic quality that coats the back of the mouth. Nice taste notes are overpowered by the drawbacks.
Coats the mouth quite nicely. An average carbonation feel on the tongue and the edges of the cheeks.
Overall the drawbacks outweight the strengths, A good beer for a steak sandwich. Sad that the gritty plastics are too strong. If not for those flavors, this has the potentil to be a much better beer.

IPA's are my favorite style and this offering from King Brewing is a pretty good version. The aroma of light citrus is present along with fresh bread dough. Taste is predominantly of hops and grapefruit. Not as flavorful as a Two-Hearted or Hop Devil, but it is easy to drink. This would be a good IPA to introduce an non-IPA person to try.

12oz. bottle: This one pours a somewhat orangeish color. There was not much head on it at all. Milder hop aroma. It consists mainly of pine and some grapefuit. The taste is a bit dry. The malt is completely masked by the hops, yet there is only a minimal bitterness to the beer. Medium bodied. It is acceptable, but I wouldnt go out of my way to buy this one.

This beer was decidedly mediocre, and I cant say I recommend it.
Appearance was a dark amber, with a minimal soapy head. Aroma was light, hoppy, and fiarly pleasant. This beer was very watery with some malty flavor and a bit of hop aftertaste. Not what I was looking for...

A - this IPA pours a coppery reddish color with swift moderate carbonation and a thin tan head
S - sweet grapefruit-hoppy aroma, not guite to a piney extent, a sweet aroma, nice but typical
T - wheres the hops? too much malt, very slight bitterness, the body and bite of this IPA is quite meager, leaves me wanting a stronger beer
M&D - a sharp taste, but not the quality bitters of a great IPA, and too thin bodied, needs a bitter balance

Drank at the source on an unexpected stop at the brewery.
A - A good head and ample lacing. Dark Amber color. Not too cloudy, not clear.
S - Okay, you can smell the malt and you can tell there are hops although they are not predominent as in many IPAs.
T - More like a Pale Ale than an IPA. The hops are weak. There is an aftertaste of fruit but which one i am not sure (a little pear taste?).
M - I had it on tap, carbonation was perfect. A refreshing balanced beer.
D - Very drinkable. I stopped for a quick beer and really wanted another one.
Basically this was almost a perfect example of a plae ale, not enough hops for me to compete with a lot of IPAs.

Hazy, deep orange copper body with a finger of whipped, yeast-flecked, dirty cream colored head. Toffee and fruit malt aromas underneath pine and citrus hops. Yeasty overtones. Toasted grain flavors up front. Sharp metallic, slightly astringent hop bitterness follows. Strong piny and herbal hop bitterness overpowers a weak, fruit and malt base. Bitter, yeasty finish. Medium body with a slightly creamy feel. Could use a little work.

This one pours a nice copper color, with a HUGE mountain of foam. I've never seen a beer foam up into such an enormous head in my life. The head has a nice tan/orange color to it. The beer smells sweet and fruity. The taste is quite heavy in the sour citrus fruits department. Almost overpowering at first, but it does relax and become tasty midway through. The mouthfeel is moderate to medium bodied, yet way too foamy. Even when I take a sip from the bottle, it suddenly gets incredibly foamy. Geez, the foamy layer across the top of the beer sticks around for the entire glass, and its so thick you cant really even budge it. Its like having wet snow setting on top of your brew. Its good, but a little too much. Makes it difficult to drink. Maybe something went wrong in the carbonation process.

So much for easing themselves into the season -- the Carolina Panthers will open their 2013 campaign with a tilt with a lot of people's favorites to win the NFC, the Seattle Seahawks.
The opener will provide a stern test for third-year quarterback Cam Newton and the Panthers new offense under Mike Shula.
Seattle's defensive scheme is a unique, hybrid defense that combines 3-4 concepts and personnel in a 4-3 look. This allows Pete Carroll to draw up some interesting fronts and blitzes that can confound offensive lines. Behind that front is a talented and physically intimidating secondary that is probably the best in the league. Combine the two and it's no wonder why many have anointed the Seahawks as the best defensive team in the league.
The Panthers, having gotten a taste of just how good Seattle's defense is in a frustrating 16-12 loss last season, will have the first opportunity to put a dint in the Hawks' neon green armor Sunday.
While Seattle held Newton and the Panthers' offense to only a field goal -- the defense chipped in with a pick-six and a safety -- Carolina shot itself in the foot numerous times to kill promising drives (see the video below). If the Panthers had been a little crisper and Newton a little more accurate, the Panthers may have ran away with the game.
Despite Newton's woeful performance against Seattle, his skill-set actually matches up quite well with the Seahawks' formidable defense.
With so much talent in the defensive backfield, the Seahawks don't need to rely on tricks and disguises to hide their intentions. They do very little to hide what coverage they're in before the play. With the rangy Earl Thomas patrolling the deep middle, the Seahawks are able to drop Kam Chancellor in to the box to help in run support.
With only one safety deep, the Seahawks are ostensibly telling the offense they are in Cover-1 with man coverage underneath or a Cover-3 zone coverage. Making the pre-snap read even easier, the corners will play off the receiver when in zone and press when in man coverage almost every time.
Given the threat that Newton poses with his legs in the Read Option, Seattle played mostly Cover-3 (man coverage is vulnerable against the run game), which has some weak areas along the sidelines against the pass. With his arm strength, Cam is excellent on sideline throws, which are made easier given the cushion provided by cornerbacks, who are in deep coverage.
The Cover-3 also provides an easy read for Newton on the deep-dig route to Steve Smith. With LaFell on a shallow cross and Smith crossing at 15-yard depth, the linebackers are put in a precarious position and Newton can hit whomever they decide to leave open.
One of the more interesting features of Seattle's hybrid defense is their use of Red Bryant as a defensive end. At 6-foot-4, 323 pounds, Bryant is a 4-3 end in name only. He was converted from a defensive tackle and his role resembles more of a run-stopping 3-4 end's than a classic pass rusher's, like Carolina's Charles Johnson.
Bryant's presence makes it tough to run at that side of Seattle's line, but his lack of mobility can be exploited with the Read Option. In Seattle's playoff win over the Washington Redskins, Robert Griffin III had a lot of success "reading" Bryant before being hampered by what turned out to be an ACL tear.
Carolina didn't have notable success with the Read Option against Seattle last year, but they mostly ran it away from Bryant and at the much nimbler Chris Clemons, who did a great job of forcing Newton to hand the ball off before quickly changing course toward the running back:
With the Read Option struggling, the Panthers went away from it, which allowed Seattle to start playing more man-to-man in the second half. With Seattle defenders running step-for-step with Panthers receivers, Newton's accuracy struggles on that day became even more of an issue.
The Panthers' game plan for Sunday's game should include some more Read Option plays at Bryant which should open up passing lanes for Newton. If he can take advantage of them, which he couldn't do a year ago, the Panthers offense should be able hold its own against the league's most talented defense and keep the game close.

WATERVILLE, Maine (AP) - Police say an Illinois man who took a bus to Maine to meet a woman he met playing an online game concocted a story about being abducted to gain the woman's sympathy.
Police say 30-year-old Randolph Patriakeas, of Pana, Illinois, was discovered lying face down on a Waterville street at about 3:30 a.m. Monday. He was blindfolded and had scratches on his upper body.
The Morning Sentinel reports that after talking to Patriakeas in the hospital, investigators determined the wounds were self-inflicted and he made up the story to gain the woman's sympathy following a difference in expectations about the relationship.
Patriakeas was not arrested but was summoned to court on Aug. 19 to face a filing a false police report charge.
He was released and his whereabouts are unclear.

Analysts Defend Assured Guaranty After Downgrade
NEW YORK (TheStreet) - Assured Guaranty (AGO)shares opened lower Friday following a downgrade by Moody's Investors Service, though a pair of sellside analysts stepped in to try to stem the selloff.
Following up on a review-for-downgrade initiated March 20, Moody's lowered ratings on Bermuda-based Assured Guaranty Ltd. to A2 from Aa3, while also downgrading several related entities and subsidiaries.
"Today's rating action reflects Moody's downward reassessment of Assured's business franchise, expected future profitability, and financial flexibility," read a statement from Moody's. "Assured operates in an industry that has not recovered from the financial crisis and, like its peers, will continue to struggle in the face of declining fundamentals, including a dramatic reduction in insurance usage, modest profitability and still-meaningful legacy risk."
MKM Partners analyst Harry Fong, who had recently speculated that Moody's unusually lengthy review process might be a sign the ratings agency was having second thoughts about the potential downgrade, nonetheless maintained his "Buy" rating and $28 12-month price target. Assured Guaranty shares opened some 4% lower, but were down by 2.57% to $14.23 about 30 minutes into trading."While this downgrade is clearly unwelcome news, its shares still represent excellent value, in our opinion. As we have highlighted several times since Moody's issued its downgrade notice last year, the company does have options, and we are confident management planned for this possibility," Fong wrote. BTIG analyst Mark Palmer predicted Friday morning's selloff after the downgrade could take the shares lower by 10% or more. However, he added, "we doubt very much that any downdraft will persist." Palmer added that since the initial review for downgrade was initiated "a significant number of investors have done a great amount of work to understand [Assured Guaranty's] value proposition. Many of those with whom we have discussed the company have conducted runoff analyses based on its existing portfolio that led them to conclude that [Assured Guaranty] shares are worth materially more than their current trading level - in some cases more than twice as much more - even if zero new business is factored in." One of Assured's staunchest defenders is investor Wilbur Ross, who in August called Assured "probably the best risk/reward position in my entire portfolio,". A call to Ross wasn't returned, and spokespeople for Assured Guaranty did not respond to an email message seeking comment on the downgrade. -- Written by Dan Freed in New York. Follow @dan_freed

A year after reaching the NBA Finals for the first time, the Oklahoma City Thunder are on the brink of elimination in the second round. Trailing 3-1 to the Memphis Grizzlies in the Western Conference Semifinals, the Thunder need to ignite a serious rally Wednesday night at home in Game 5 of the seven-game series.
Considered favorites to win the West for a second straight year entering the postseason, the Thunder have stumbled badly following the season-ending injury to star guard Russell Westbrook. Kevin Durant trying to play hero has worked to a degree, but it's clear the Thunder lose something with Reggie Jackson as the primary point guard.
Playing at home in Game 5, the Thunder should come out with a passionate brand of basketball, but the Grizzlies aren't exactly the kind of team to kowtow to intensity. With a wild one expected for Wednesday night, here are three questions that could define the game.
1. Can the Grizz keep avoiding turnovers?
Entering the postseason, everyone wondered how Memphis would score enough to regularly compete against the league's best teams. With guys like Mike Conley and Marc Gasol stepping up their games, we have our answer to some degree, but one aspect of the Grizzlies offense stands out above all else: They don't turn the ball over. As Grantland's Zach Lowe tweeted Tuesday, "Thing I probably didn't play up enough today: MEM's playoff turnover rate is ridiculously low. Like basically historically aberrant." In the series, the Grizzlies have a 56-39 advantage in turnovers forced.
2. Is this Mike Conley's breakout?
Over the past few games, the Memphis point guard has taken his game to another level. Always a solid perimeter defender and orchestrator of the offense, Conley has emerged as arguably the team's most potent scorer in the post-Rudy Gay era. Armed with razor-quick speed, elite handles and a solid jumper, Conley has turned the Grizzlies' pick-and-roll sets into a clinic on how to use screens. Faced up against an inexperienced Reggie Jackson and an aging Derek Fisher, he's lit up the Thunder for 21.3 points and 6.7 assists per game during the past three contests, all Memphis wins. If Conley can keep up this play on that end of the floor, Memphis will be tough to beat.
3. Will Kevin Martin show up?
Without Westbrook, someone needed to step up and provide scoring punch behind Durant's heroic efforts. As the team's third-leading scorer during the regular season, shooting guard Kevin Martin appeared to be the most obvious potential Robin to KD's Batman. Instead, Martin has struggled throughout the series against Memphis, rarely looking like someone who was among the most efficient scorers in the league during the regular season. Since starting strong with a 25-point, seven-rebound effort in Game 1, Martin has averaged 12.3 points on 35 percent shooting in the past three games.
Time: 9:30 p.m. ET
Odds: The Thunder are 4.5-point favorites.
More from SB Nation:
• Flannery: The Pacers are happening
• Pacers upend Knicks, take 3-1 series lead
• Ziller: Don't blame Kevin Durant
• The Bulls were historically unenjoyable

customers bought with this dress
Elbow Length All Over Lace Jacket Style KP108 4 4
Perfect fit The jacket is perfect! Pretty true to size. Regarding the tag- I used a seam ripper and took it off the jacket-it is extremely large and has to be removed. Very pretty jacket. May 28, 2013
Perfect Match I bought this jacket to go with my gown style 9V9665. I am very happy with this purchase. It is the perfect size, looks amazing with the details of the dress; doesn't clash like I was afraid it would. I wanted some sort of coverage for the modesty and the fact that I have a strange dark spot covering most of one of my arms that I've always been weird about. The jacket seems to almost shimmer a bit in the right light as well. If you are a bride looking for modesty, but not wanting full coverage, this is a good choice. It allows detail to be seen yet covers any flaws you aren't comfortable with. One down side was that the tag was huge and it was a bit hard to remove. I still have a little bit of the tag left on it, which is okay because I seriously doubt anyone will notice it . April 30, 2013
Lace Jacket-could have been perfect The jacket was beautiful. My issue is that the David's Bridal tag is sewn in so tightly on the back, that it is very difficult to remove. And, you have to remove the tag, because it shows through quite plainly. You should add your tag with minimum attachment so that it is easily removed. October 23, 2012
Very good purchase This is a beautiful bolero. It is also very comfortable. The fit is a little bit big. It is also quite sheer. I am extremely pleased with it. April 11, 2012

FROM: James Kvaal, Policy Director
SUBJECT: President Obama's Deficit Plan Builds on the Simpson-Bowles Recommendations
Over the weekend, Governor Mitt Romney appeared on CBS's Face the Nation to hold up the Simpson-Bowles budget commission proposal as a possible model for his administration, if he is elected. In the past, he has said, "I think very highly of their recommendations," and praised the commission for cutting spending while creating pro-growth tax policies. And he campaigned with Reps. John Boehner and Paul Ryan, who have criticized President Obama for not enacting Simpson-Bowles despite opposing it themselves.
But in reality, Governor Romney's budget plans reject Simpson-Bowles. While Simpson-Bowles devotes over $2 trillion in revenue increases towards deficit reduction, Mitt Romney refuses to raise even a dollar in revenue as part of a balanced deficit-reduction plan. In fact, he would cut taxes by an additional $5 trillion, with the largest benefits for the wealthiest and no plan to pay for it. Despite his praise for the Simpson-Bowles approach, Romney's plans are fundamentally incompatible with it.
President Obama has published a detailed plan to bring down the deficit by more than $4 trillion over the next decade. The plan, including detailed cost estimates, can be found at the Office of Management and Budget web site, www.omb.gov. Under the Obama plan:
• Same Framework: The Obama budget embraces the fundamental philosophy of Simpson-Bowles: a balanced approach that finds specific spending cuts and savings across the budget, asks the wealthiest Americans to pay their fair share, includes a contribution from revenues, and protects both key investments in our future and programs for vulnerable Americans.
• More Savings in Annual Domestic Spending: It includes more savings from annual domestic spending than was recommended by Simpson-Bowles. These saving have already been enacted and will reduce annual domestic spending to its lowest level in 50 years as a share of the economy.
• Similar Savings in Other Domestic Spending: The Obama plan achieves savings comparable to those Simpson-Bowles proposes through reforms in Medicare, Medicaid, and so-called "other mandatory" programs including agriculture subsidies, federal worker retirement, and the postal service. Commission co-chairs Alan Simpson and Erskine Bowles have acknowledged it incorporates some of the proposals in their report.
It is true that President Obama did not endorse the recommendations of Simpson-Bowles in their entirety. The president disagrees with the depth of the commission's recommended cuts to defense and Social Security. Simpson-Bowles also raises about $600 billion more in revenue over the next decade than President Obama's plan, including net tax increases on the middle class. The independent Congressional Budget Office agrees that the president's plan will stabilize the debt as a share of our economy.
But President Obama's plan reflects the same balanced approach that avoids asking only one group of Americans to shoulder the burden of deficit reduction and protects investments in our future. Commission co-chair Erskine Bowles has written that "the president does support the general framework of the 'Simpson-Bowles Plan,' and he is willing to do his part to put our fiscal house in order."
In contrast, Governor Romney's budget proposals are fundamentally incompatible with the Simpson-Bowles plan:
• Unbalanced: Governor Romney repeated again Sunday that he would reject a budget deal that includes $10 in spending cuts for every $1 in revenue increases, opposing efforts to make millionaires and corporations contribute their fair share. Indeed, Mitt Romney would keep tax preferences like the carried interest loophole for Wall Street investors and subsidies for oil companies, and provide even deeper tax cuts to wealthy taxpayers like himself.
• Doesn't Add Up: Governor Romney has proposed a $5 trillion tax plan that – since he refuses to describe a single tax preference he would reform or loophole he would close to help pay for it – would increase the deficit by trillions of dollars.
• Higher Spending: Governor Romney has proposed a defense build-up that independent analysts say could cost $2 trillion over 10 years, though it lacks a clear national security strategy behind it.
• Shortchanges Key Investments: Governor Romney supports the cuts to domestic programs from the House Republican budget, which would be far deeper than Simpson-Bowles, jeopardizing both investments in our future and protections for the most vulnerable.
• Relies on Secret Cuts and Tax Increases: Governor Romney has failed to propose specific figures for the vast majority of his proposals, telling reporters that his tax plan "can't be scored" and telling donors that he keeps his plans secret during the election campaign because he worries that they would be politically unpopular. The editor of the conservative National Review, Rich Lowry, appeared after Romney on the same episode of "Face the Nation" and criticized the candidate for his "great allergy to specifics and details."
President Obama has proposed a specific plan that takes a balanced approach to reduce the deficit and stabilize the national debt similar to that advocated by Simpson-Bowles. The bottom line is simple: President Obama has a plan that would reduce the deficit by more than $4 trillion, while Governor Romney's plans would increase it by as much as $5 trillion.

Moet & Chandon Imperial Champagne: This luxurious, world-famous Champagne boasts soft and mature aromas of white fruits such as peaches and pears with hints of nuts. From a smooth, juicy mid-palate to a clean and crisp finish, the champagne releases heavenly fruit flavors with hints of fresh walnuts.
Dom Perignon 2004: "The 2004 Dom Perignon continues to develop beautifully. A vibrant, focused Champagne, the 2004 clearly reflects the personality of the year. Freshly cut flowers, white peaches and pears are woven together in a Champagne that impresses for its focus and energy. Chiseled saline note support the crystalline finish. I imagine the 2004 will always remain relatively bright and linear, but at the same time, each time I have tasted it over the last two years the 2004 seems to have a little more body and broader shoulders. The 2004 will appeal most to readers who find the 2002 and 2003 too exuberant. There is a lot to like in the glass." - 96 Points, Vinous
Louis Roederer Cristal Brut 2005: "[..] An intensely elegant, rich, ripe bouquet. A succession of white fruits (apple), ripe and juicier yellow fruits (peaches) and slightly sour citrus fruits (mandarin oranges). The quite typical Chardonnay notes appear after a few minutes: white flowers (acacia), dried fruit, buttery caramel hints, suggestive of almost vanilla-like pastries. The bouquet is striking: its has great aromatic freshness but is already very open and mature. The bite is full-bodied, soft and winey. It gives a well-rounded, almost smooth impression with ripe sun-drenched white and yellow fruits. [...] This Cristal 2005 stands out from all other Cristal vintages due to its aromatic openness and typical Chardonnay character. The ripe 2005 grapes produced wines of a unique nature, combining wininess with long-lasting quality, elegance and consistency. It is even reminiscent of a few Burgundy-like delights." - 97 Points, Wine Enthusiast

Impressive April 23, 2014
Delivered as promised with an impressive presentation. Sent as a 50th birthday gift. Only flaw is that I wish they would have allowed more characters to add an adequate message to gift.
Great gift February 17, 2014
I love the personalization option for the ribbon. I sent this to my boyfriend for us to share on valentines day. It was simple, elegant and a nice surprise.

Hassle free way to brighten someones day. January 6, 2014
Since my son and his wife left the U.K. to live in the USA present giving has been difficult to say the least. Recently we discovered Gift Tree and used them to send a wedding anniversary gift. I can highly recommend this company, ordering was hassle free, we were kept fully updated by email as to progress and delivery times and my son and daughter in law were truly delighted when the gift arrived, commenting particularly on presentation. I will definitely be using Gift Tree in the future.

Proud to have sent it December 21, 2013
Sent this to my cousin and her husband. There was a mix up with the card but she knew it was from me. She loved it and said it is just beautiful. It was nice to send something from Ohio, online that wasn't disappointing. Received notice when it was delivered (SC) and had a great experience with the company. Will definitely use this company again with out fear.

Great Idea August 8, 2013
I bought this gift for my boyfriend's parents for their 40th anniversary. His mom said she cried a little. The gift was presented beautifully. It's such a great gift idea for any occasion.
I just wish they also included the option to add champagne glasses too and the same champagne selection as the gift with personalized champagne glasses.
One size does fit all!

You Can't Miss With This One! July 24, 2013
What do you get your doctor (who is also a personal friend) for his birthday? The man who has everything? Well this hit it out of the park! He loved the champagne, the presentation, the personalized ribbon; he loved it all! When you don't know what to get them, this is it. No brainer.

Made nice retirement gift! January 10, 2013
I did not personally see this gift but the recipient seemed thrilled to receive it. I was disappointed, though, that the engraved plate that was advertised was no longer available - one of the main reasons for the selection. Also no current coupons available .

Beautiful gift November 11, 2011
I purchased this as a thank you gift for my Realtor. It's absolutely gorgeous. The only reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5 is because the ribbon was not big and fluffy as shown in the photo. Instead it was tied the same way you tie your shoes, which to me is the lazy way to tie a bow. This makes a big difference in presentation. Nontheless, I highly recommend this item. Just make sure the bow is presented properly as indicated in the pic.

Abstract: From ecosystems to the social scene at Bucknell, to the neural network you are using to read this abstract, networks are everywhere we look. A current mystery is how the individual units of a network can send and receive information to one another, while at the same time can act to switch on and off entire portions of the network. I will explain recent theoretical investigations, conducted entirely with Bucknell undergraduates, of the possible types of network switches. Our findings provide insight into seizures in the brain, the spread of rumors in social networks, and the genetic control of development.

Twitch.tv releases an Xbox 360 app: It's convenient, but the lack of a search tool is puzzling
Video game streaming service, Twitch.tv announced yesterday that it has launched an Xbox 360 app that will allow users to watch streamed video from their console. This app will finally allow hundreds of thousands of spectators to view competitions and other events from the comfort of their living room. Of course, this always a requires an Xbox Live subscription.
If you've ever wanted to relax and watch some League of Legends on the television without having to connect your PC or laptop, suddenly you have a viable option in hardware you likely already have connected. I was just a touch giddy about getting to sit down with my dinner and relax on the couch while watching Maker vs DeMuslim in the StarCraft 2 Blizzard World Championship series without the need for an elaborate set up.
We tested out the app quite a bit over the last 24 hours, and it works well. Tournament streams came through looking crisp on my HDTV, and there were no major hiccups or service interruptions. This is still the same outstanding Twitch.tv service we've been enjoying for years, although as always performance will be dependent on your connection speed.
Navigating to major games, tournaments etc is a breeze and can be done in a few quick movemements, and load times are minimal.
The only oversight, and it's bizarre, is the complete lack of a search tool. Luckily the streams are organized the same way they are on Twitch.tv, with the most popular listed first. Twitch streams tend to be very top-heavy with tens of thousands of viewers in the most popular streams, but only dozens after you leave the top 10. If you're searching for a friend's small stream then you could run into problems, but for the majority of people who just want to watch MLG/LCS in comfort, or relax with Ocelote's stream, then you'll have no problems
I'll be very interested to see how this impacts the audience for streaming in the future. WIll stream counts go up once viewers no longer need to be glued to their PC? Will the audience grow older once parents can watch games in the living room with the whole family?
This move would also positively impact the viewerbase for Call of Duty. Console-based eSports have not been particularly popular historically, but part of that could be the difficulty in transporting a console-based group of players onto a PC stream. That separation is now gone, and console gaming can now be viewed via the same console on which it's played.
If you're looking for a big event to break in the new app or if you're looking to be introduced to competitive gaming, the League of Legends All-Star series will be starting two weekends from now from the 24th to the 26th. Alternatively, the StarCraft 2 Blizzard World Championship Series is ongoing as well, and has been quite entertaining so far.
