Columbus, OH (Sports Network) - Stafon Johnson ran two yards into the end zone with 1:05 left, as third-ranked Southern California upended eighth-ranked Ohio State, 18-15, in a clash between college football powerhouses at The Horseshoe.
The Ohio State defense provided problems for USC (2-0) for most of the game and scored a safety in the third quarter to give the Buckeyes the lead.
But the Trojans took over at their own 14 about midway through the final quarter and sustained a long drive that was capped by Johnson's TD and a two- point conversion.
Freshman quarterback Matt Barkley was central to USC's success on the final drive, as he completed two long passes for first downs and converted a fourth- down chance with a QB sneak.
Johnson ran for 50 yards and two scores on 11 carries, while Barkley finished with 195 yards passing and an interception on 15-of-31 completions for the Trojans, who survived a record hostile crowd at The Horseshoe to pick up their seventh straight win over Ohio State. It was a much different contest from the teams' early season matchup last year, when USC won by a 35-3 score.
"It was a terrific night of football and both defenses did not let up," USC head coach Pete Carroll said. "Ohio State's defense did a great job and it took every second to get it done. It was a very special game and we will cherish it for a long time."
Terrelle Pryor threw for 177 yards on 11-of-25 completions and was intercepted once for the Buckeyes (1-1). Daniel Herron ran for 44 yards and a score on 18 carries.
"The whole team is going to take this hard," Herron said. "We had it and it just slipped away. We will come out with a chip on our shoulder and keep working hard and getting better."
On the winning drive, USC did not start well, as Barkley was sacked for a loss of four yards on the first play. A five-yard penalty on USC backed the Trojans back up to their five-yard line, but Joe McKnight ripped off a 11-yard run. Barkley then found McKnight for 21 yards and a first down before going to Anthony McCoy for 26 yards.
The second long pass got the Trojans across midfield to the OSU 37, where the drive sputtered a bit. But faced with a 4th-and-1, Barkley kept the ball and gained two yards for a fresh set of downs with about 3 1/2 minutes to go.
McKnight ran a number of times from there, and his nine-yard dash brought the ball to the OSU six, where USC faced a 3rd-and-1 with 1:14 to play.
Barkley again kept the ball, rushing for four yards to set up a 1st-and-goal at the two, and on the next play, Johnson ran off the right end into the end zone to put the Trojans on top. For the two-point conversion, Barkley found McKnight in the left flat, and McKnight dove into the end zone to make it an 18-15 game with 1:05 left.
"You really have got to believe you're going to score in that situation," Barkley said. "I knew we were going to score. It's important that you really just go with that mindset."
Ohio State began its last-gasp drive at its own 36 and faced a big setback after a penalty moved the team back to the 18. The drive eventually faced a 4th-and-10, and Pryor's heave fell incomplete to seal USC's win.
The teams traded scores in the first quarter, with USC getting the first. Chris Galippo intercepted Pryor on the third play of Ohio State's first drive and returned it 51 yards to the Buckeyes' two-yard line.
Ohio State's goal-line defense held strong, forcing a fourth down, but the Trojans went for it, and Johnson plunged one yard into the end zone as USC assumed a 7-0 lead.
But the Buckeyes responded with a score of their own, going 72 yards in six plays. Pryor's 56-yard pass to Dane Sanzenbacher was the highlight, and Herron polished off the drive with a two-yard run into the end zone.
Ohio State got the ball back late in the first quarter and marched downfield, reaching the USC one. But the Buckeyes couldn't break into the end zone and settled for an 18-yard field goal from Aaron Pettrey shortly into the second quarter.
USC was able to sustain progress on its next two drives, but neither resulted in points. The first ended on a Barkley interception, and after an OSU punt, Jordan Congdon missed a 44-yard field goal attempt after hitting the crossbar.
But the Buckeyes punted again, and Congdon was successful from 21 yards out with time expiring to make it a 10-10 game at halftime.
The OSU defense forced USC into a costly mistake in the third quarter after the Trojans took over at their own 10. USC couldn't advance and had to punt, but the snap sailed high and bounced out of the end zone for a safety, giving OSU a 12-10 lead.
The Buckeyes took advantage of the ensuing possession, when they started at USC's 43. They had a 1st-and-goal at the 10 before Pryor fumbled on an option, resulting in an eight-yard loss.
The OSU quarterback did get 13 of those yards back on the next play, a pass to Brandon Saine down the right sideline. But the drive stalled, and Pettrey booted a 22-yarder for a 15-10 edge with 4:43 left in the quarter.

The man charged in the 1979 deadly kidnapping of Etan Patz appeared Wednesday in State Supreme Court, where he entered a not guilty plea for the still unsolved crime. NY1's Dean Meminger filed the following report.
In a loud and clear voice, Pedro Hernandez said not guilty to charges he kidnapped and murdered 6-year-old Etan Patz 33 years ago.
"We haven't scene any evidence of death," said defense attorney Harvey Fishbein. "There is no crime scene here. There are no witnesses to a crime."
In May of 1979, Etan Patz left his home on Prince Street in SoHo headed for school. It was his first time walking alone to the bus stop. His parents would never see him again.
In May of this year, investigators said Pedro Hernandez confessed to the murder. He worked at a bodega in the area at the time.
However, his lawyer argues police coerced a confession from a man with mental issues.
"So there is a video tape that will say he did it, he was involved," Fishbein said. "Police took that statement after, and this is in my motion, so I'm free to discuss it at this time, after six, seven hours worth of detention. They took a video statement. And in that statement, there were admissions of being involved with this case, but that doesn't make them true."
In an attempt to get the indictment tossed out, the defense asked the judge to give it permission to look at the grand jury minutes to see what evidence, other than the confession, the prosecution has. The judge is expected to announce his decision in a few weeks.
The defense team for Pedro Hernandez said the Manhattan District Attorney's office should continue to look at other people who might be responsible for the disappearance of Etan.
"Most notable, of course, is Jose Ramos, who's in prison in Pennsylvania, now serving more than 20 years in jail for sexually abusing underaged boys," Fishbein said.
Although he was never criminally charged, a civil court did rule Ramos was response for Etan's death and ordered him to pay the boy's parents $2 million, despite the fact he didn't have that kind of money.
Pedro Hernandez is expected back in court at the end of January.

Dru Hill is an American singing group, most popular during the late 1990s, whose repertoire included R&B, soul, and gospel music. Founded in Baltimore, Maryland, and active since 1992, Dru Hill recorded seven Top 40 hits, and is best known for the R&B #1 hits "In My Bed", "Never Make a Promise", and "How Deep Is Your Love". Tamir "Nokio" Ruffin was the group's founder; his bandmates included main lead singer Mark "Sisqó" Andrews, Larry "Jazz" Anthony, and James "Woody Rock" Green. Signing to Island Records through Haqq Islam's University Records imprint, the group released two successful albums, Dru Hill and Enter the Dru, before separating for a period from late 1999 to 2002, during which time Sisqó and Woody released solo albums. While Woody's Soul Music LP was a moderate success in the gospel music industry, Sisqó's debut album, Unleash the Dragon, and its hit single, "Thong Song", were major pop successes, and established Sisqó as a household name outside of Dru Hill. His second album, Return of Dragon, wasn't much of a success. He is currently working on his third album, Last Dragon. In 2002, by then part of the Def Soul record label, the group reunited and added fifth member Rufus "Scola" Waller to the lineup for their third album, Dru World Order. The album was a huge disappointment which forced the group to be released from Def Jam and go on a second hiatus. In 2010, the group signed to Kedar Entertainment Group and released their fourth album, InDRUpendence Day, with new member Tao, after Woody left for the second time.
The members of Dru Hill were natives of Baltimore, Maryland. Mark Andrews and James Green met each other in middle school, and both later became acquaintances of Tamir Ruffin when all three began pursuing careers in the music industry. Ruffin, nicknamed "Nokio" (an acronym for "Nasty on Key in Octave") enlisted Andrews and Green (whose respective nicknames of "Sisqó" and "Big Woody Rock" came from their childhood) to form a singing group. They were originally known as 14K Harmony & included two other fellow Baltimore natives & schoolmates Bravette Fleet & Chris Thomas. By 1994 Fleet & Thomas would leave the group who were now known as Legacy and the group added Larry "Jazz" Anthony, an opera student, to complete their lineup. After the group signed to Island Records they changed their name to Dru Hill after Druid Hill Park, a popular park on the West side of Baltimore, the name of which is pronounced "Dru Hill" in the local accent. A dragon is used as a logo for the group.
The quartet made a name for itself by getting jobs at a local fudge factory, "The Fudgery," at the Inner Harbor, where they sang and performed to entertain guests while making fudge (this tradition is still a part of "The Fudgery").[1] Most of their early repertoire was made up of gospel music as well as an early song by the group, "Please Remove Yo' Shoes"; the group eventually switched to the more commercially viable genre of R&B.
Dru Hill's big break came in 1996, when manager Haqq Islam arranged for them to perform at the Impact Convention in May. The group was signed to Island Records's "Island Black" division shortly afterward through a production deal with Islam's University Music, and immediately began recording their debut album. The self-titled Dru Hill was released on November 19, 1996, and eventually was certified gold. The group's first single, "Tell Me", was featured on the soundtrack to the Whoopi Goldberg film Eddie, and was a Top 5 R&B hit in the United States.
Stylistically, Dru Hill was the middle-ground between the smooth, gentlemen-like Boyz II Men and the self-proclaimed "bad boys of R&B", Jodeci. Dru Hill received a lot of criticism, especially from the members of Jodeci, for what was perceived was a direct appropriation of Jodeci's style, particularly in frontman Sisqó's K-Ci Hailey-esque lead vocals. Other major influences for the group included Stevie Wonder and 1980s boy band New Edition.
Both the group themselves and songwriters/producers such as Daryl Simmons and Keith Sweat wrote the songs for the Dru Hill album, Nokio also did some co-production, and would become the group's main producer by 1998.
All four members took turns singing lead, with Sisqó making the biggest impression on audiences with his dancing style, David Ruffin-styled emoting, and bleached-blond hair. The Sisqó-led and the album's second single, "In My Bed", was the group's first Top 5 pop hit and first #1 R&B hit. Jazz took the lead on the third single, "Never Make a Promise", which became a second #1 R&B hit. "Never Make a Promise"'s music video starred Michelle Thomas as Jazz's girlfriend, and was noted for its message against child molestation.
The album's fourth and final single ,"5 Steps", which the group wrote themselves, was released on December 9, 1997.
Between their first and second albums, Dru Hill contributed "We're Not Making Love No More", a #2 R&B and #13 Pop hit, to the Soul Food soundtrack. "We're Not Making Love No More" was written and produced by star producer Babyface. Dru Hill and rapper Foxy Brown recorded "Big Bad Mama", a remake of Carl Carlton's 1981 hit "She's a Bad Mama Jama (She's Built, She's Stacked)", which was the main single for the soundtrack to the 1998 Bill Bellamy film Def Jam's How to Be a Player. The group was also instrumental in writing and producing for new University artist Mýa, whose first two singles "It's All About Me" and "Movin' On", were co-written by Sisqó, who also performs guest vocals on "It's All About Me".
In 1997, Dru Hill filed a lawsuit against Island Records, seeking a release from its contract, after an Island employee hit the group's manager, Keith Ingram, over the head with a pool cue.[2] It was discovered that the employee in question had a criminal record. At an October 1997 deposition hearing, Eric Kronfeld, president and chief operating officer of Island's parent company PolyGram, was asked why he had hired such an individual. His response was that if he were not to hire African-Americans with criminal records, then "there would be virtually no African-Americans employees in our society or in our industry."[3]
Kronfield's remarks set off a wave of controversy when word of them reached the media in November. The Reverend Jesse Jackson became personally involved, publicly stating that PolyGram, based in the Netherlands, had "a pattern of race and sex exclusion." [4] Jackson met with PolyGram chairman Alain Levy and several other executives, who issued a public apology for Kronfield's statement, and replaced Kronfield as president with Motown Records' chairman Clarence Avant.[5] By the end of the month, Dru Hill had settled with Island Records, with the agreement that they would remain on the label.[6]
Dru Hill's third Top 20 pop hit came in the form of 1998's "How Deep Is Your Love" (Pop #3), a hip hop styled track which was included on the soundtrack to the Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker film Rush Hour. The single "This Is What We Do", featuring a guest rap from Method Man, set the tone for the group's second album, Enter the Dru. The album featured several other mid-tempo tracks in the vein of "How Deep Is Your Love", as well as the R&B Top 5 single "These are the Times" (Pop #21), co-written and co-produced by Babyface, and featuring guitar work from Atlanta-based session guitarist and former Earth Wind & Fire member Dick Smith
Enter the Dru eventually sold two million copies by 1999.[7] That year, Dru Hill recorded a version of "Enchantment Passing Through" for the soundtrack to the Broadway musical Aida, which was also featured on Sisqo's album Unleash the Dragon.
Among the press and the public, Sisqó was singled out as a de facto solo act, and the other three members were regarded as sidemen. The singer was even erroneously referred to (presumably by mistake) as Dru Hill by confused fans, most notably on MTV's Spring Break 1999. When Dru Hill made a high-profile guest appearance on Will Smith's #1 pop hit "Wild Wild West", the lead single from the soundtrack to Smith's 1999 film of the same name, it made a star out of Sisqó alone. Both the song and its video prominently featured Sisqó alongside Smith, with the other three members relegated to the background.
During the "Wild Wild West" video shoot in April 1999, Woody quit the group, feeling a need to return to his gospel music roots. At first, Island decided to keep Dru Hill a trio, and shot a video for a hip-hop-styled remix of Enter the Dru's "You are Everything" with only Sisqó, Jazz, and Nokio, who performs a rap with Def Jam artist Ja Rule. Def Jam artist Case was subsequently enlisted to sing backgrounds on a remix of "Beauty" from Enter the Dru, whose video was shot but not released.
After Island merged with Def Jam to become The Island Def Jam Music Group in mid-1999, all four members, Woody included, signed new contracts with Def Jam's R&B imprint Def Soul, creating what was termed the "Dru World Order" project. Between November 1999 and November 2000, each member would release a solo album: Sisqó a pop album, Jazz a traditional R&B/soul album, Nokio a hip hop album, and Woody a gospel album. All four members reunited with a fifth member named Scola and recorded their third album Dru World Order, which was released in November 2000.
Sisqó released his debut Unleash the Dragon LP, and had a minor hit with his first single, "Got to Get It" featuring Make It Hot. His second single, a playful novelty record entitled "Thong Song", became a major hit during the spring of 2000, and his third, "Incomplete", became a number-one hit during the fall. As a result, the Dru World Order project schedule was continually pushed back, and, by November 2000, none of the other solo albums had been released.
In the early fall of 2000, Def Soul had Dru Hill re-enter the studio to record the Dru World Order album, and the song "Without Me" was chosen as the lead single. However, the time the group had spent apart created tension and conflict: Sisqó walked out of a November 2000 Dru Hill photo shoot for VIBE magazine, and the group broke apart completely shortly afterward.
Dru World Order was placed on indefinite hold, and Sisqó began work on a second solo LP, Return of Dragon. "Without You" was issued as an album track on Return of Dragon, which performed below expectations after its June 2001 release. By the end of the year, Sisqó and Nokio had begun plans to reassemble Dru Hill, enlisting Baltimore associate Rufus Waller, who performed under the name "Scola", as a fifth member.
Woody eventually arranged a solo deal with Kirk Franklin's Gospocentric Records, which released his gospel album, titled Soul Music, on April 9, 2002. Scola wrote the songs "My Homie" and "No Matter What" for Woody's album, and sings backgrounds on several tracks.
Dru World Order was released on November 26, 2002, two years after its original planned release date. Nearly all of the album's tracks were produced by Nokio, who sung lead on the tracks "She Said" and "Men Always Regret". Producers such as Bryan Michael Cox and Kwamé also made contributions. Most of the album's tracks featured Sisqó, Jazz, Woody, and Scola sharing the leads, including the lead single "I Should Be...". "I Should Be..." was a Top 30 pop hit and a Top 10 R&B hit, while its follow-up "I Love You" failed to make a strong impression.
By 2005, Dru Hill had been released from their Def Soul contract and had disappeared from public view.
Def Soul released a greatest hits compilation, Dru Hill: Hits, on October 11, along with a corresponding DVD collection of the group's music videos. Both collections included Sisqó's biggest solo hits, "Thong Song" and "Incomplete" alongside the Dru Hill songs.
During the summer of 2007, Scola released a slow jam compilation CD entitled Scola's Lost Treasures. He has also worked on a solo project called From EA 2 Cali, which was released in 2010.
In early 2008, the original quartet version of Dru Hill began touring alongside fellow 1990s R&B acts Tony! Toni! Toné!, Bell Biv Devoe, and their former producer Keith Sweat. On March 6, the group appeared on WERQ, a Baltimore radio station, to promote their reunion. In the midst of their interview, however, Woody announced he was quitting the group again to dedicate himself to his gospel ministry. A YouTube video shows Sisqó walking out on the interview as a result, and Woody and Nokio fighting while Jazz and the manager Kevin Peck tries to break it up.[8][9] The group held a contest in their native Baltimore for a replacement for Woody, settling upon a new singer, Antwuan "Tao" Simpson. The group never said why they did not keep Scola in the group, although it was later stated by Nokio that "five people [mess] up the money."[10] toured with group as new act from Nashvile Tn http://www.twitter.com/cboyd28 christopher Boyd 1996- 1997
InDRUpendence Day is Dru Hill's fourth album, released on July 27, 2010. It features the group's new member, Tao, who was Woody's replacement. The album has released three singles, "Love MD", "Remain Silent" and "Back to the Future" . It is under the label Kedar Entertainment.
Dru Hill has their own television show called "Keith Sweat's Platinum House". It debuted June 28, 2010 on Centric. It focused on their fourth album, InDRUpendence Day, and how they progress as a group back on the grind.[11]
The show was scheduled to premiere on July 14, 2009 on BET but had been postponed.

PHOENIX — Police say two teenagers have been wounded in an officer-involved shooting at a north Phoenix home.
They say an armed boy showed up a girl's home late Tuesday afternoon near 44th Street and Trailblazer.
The girl told police she knows the boy and is fearful of him and called 911.
Police say the teenage boy apparently was trying to get into the home and he was shot while he fired his own gun.
Police say the girl was inside the front door and was wounded by a bullet from the boy's gun.
She's reported to be in stable condition at a hospital with the boy in serious condition.
Police say they are withholding the names of teenagers because they're juveniles.
They say no police officers were injured in the shooting.

Democrats heard a pitch from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton yesterday on supporting the Libya operation. They were not enthused. Even the argument that Republicans wouldn't challenge a president of their own party the same way didn't carry much sway. "The president has not developed strong relationships with members of Congress that would allow members [...]
Elaine Marshall, Senate Candidate in North Carolina, Calls for Alan Simpson's Firing
|By: David Dayen Thursday August 26, 2010 12:16 pm
Today's the day of Democrats calling for firings, I guess. On top of Tom Perriello wanting Tim Geithner to step down, Elaine Marshall, the Senate candidate who is close to even in polls against Republican incumbent Richard Burr in North Carolina, announced in a speech today that Alan Simpson should resign as co-chair of the [...]
More Bed-Wetter Democrats Join Reid on Cordoba House
|By: David Dayen Tuesday August 17, 2010 6:40 am
Chris Cillizza must have been the first one with his hand up in the Washington Post editorial meeting to volunteer to write the "Democrats in disarray" piece, about the Cordoba House project. He must have dialed with glee into all the campaigns and heard all the anguished responses. I particularly enjoyed the anonymous operative at [...]
Shelby Gambit Highlights Need for Changes To Senate Rules
|By: David Dayen Friday February 5, 2010 8:02 am
While all the hoopla over Richard Shelby's hostage situation is a little overhyped – if not him, some other Republican would have held each and every one of these nominees – it does amount to what you would call a "teachable moment" about the dysfunctional Senate. Anyone who thinks that the fillibuster is merely a [...]
Citizens United Rumblings: Democrats Plot To Offset Supreme Court Ruling
|By: David Dayen Tuesday February 2, 2010 10:58 am
Democrats in the House and Senate are preparing a raft of legislation to blunt the impact of the Supreme Court's Citizens United ruling, which would allow corporations to use their treasuries to influence elections. The Senate Rules Committee held a hearing today on the matter, and several Democratic Senators indicated their desire for a change [...]
Jerrold Nadler Unaware Of Altered OPR Report
|By: David Dayen Tuesday February 2, 2010 7:29 am
Last week, Newsweek reported that David Margolis, a career official at the Justice Department, softened an imminent Office of Professional Responsibility report about Bush "torture memo" lawyers John Yoo and Jay Bybee. Instead of sanctioning the two lawyers for their violating their professional obligations in writing legal opinions justifying torture, the report will now say, [...]
Potential Gillibrand-Ford Matchup Already Heated
|By: David Dayen Saturday January 9, 2010 5:00 am
Harold Ford really does look like he's going to take a run at New York's US Senate seat currently held by Kirsten Gillibrand. He's staffed up with a spokesman and a pollster, as well as Rod Blagojevich's old campaign manager (!). And the spokesman is already running with an angry statement: Harold is not going [...]
Pushback On Harold Ford's Senate Bid In New York Comes Fast And Furious
|By: David Dayen Friday January 8, 2010 11:14 am
Harold Ford might want to re-think jumping into the New York Senate race, given the kind of pushback he's already getting. Within 48 hours of the footsie-playing article in The New York Times, Chuck Schumer went public telling him not to run; Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) said he would be a disaster, and NARAL Pro-Choice NY, [...]

Madison and Secession
On July 26, 2010, Rob Pepe wrote on our facebook page,
Let's put a copy of Nullification in the hands of EVERY member of the Pennsylvania legislature. I have my rep and senator covered. Who's next?
On November 9, 2010, every legislator in the state of Utah received a copy of Nullification courtesy of the Utah Tenth Amendment Center.
Following the lead of these forward thinkers and borrowing our project name from Sheriff Mack's, "No Sheriff Left Behind" project, the Pennsylvania Tenth Amendment Center is happy to report a large stride toward fulfilling Rob's idea.
Mike Tilley describes our March 7 outreach effort in Harrisburg.
Jim Vetter, Joe Wright and myself met with Todd Shamash to deliver and discuss the Corbett letter and also deliver a hardcover copy of Nullification. The meeting went well but it was apparent that Todd believes the Supreme Court is the unquestioned authority that will decide on Obamacare.A total of 125 hardcover copies and 33 audiobook copies of "Nullification" were delivered to Representatives and Senators (104 Reps, 21 Senators). The books that were handed out included: TAC brochure, Corbett Letter, Introductory letter. The introductory letter was actually banded to the book in a way that made it stand out and allowed for an important part of the letter to be read without having to open the package. 33 Representatives received Audiobook copies as well as hardcover copies (Hardcover books were only given out to Reps and Senators the scored a D or above in the PA Liberty Index, Audio CDs were only given out to reps that scored a B or above in the Liberty Index). The books and especially the audiobooks were well received. So far one representative (Rosemary Brown) has emailed me a thank you for the book.A variety of follow up efforts will be forthcoming to educate and lobby about State Sovereignty and Nullification. One such effort will be to visit the capitol again in a few weeks to meet with some legislators about these issues while also delivering additional materials to a few key legislators that were missed. Local grassroots members will also be guided into lobbying their local legislator about state sovereignty and nullification issues. Now the real work begins.
We are grateful to the anonymous donor(s) who funded this project. We are also grateful for the dedication and hard work of the volunteers who made it happen. Now we are asking other Pennsylvanians to continue the effort. If your legislator received a nullification package, please contact them and let them know how important it is for them to understand this information and pursue this course of action. If your legislator did not receive the package, please get them a copy of Nullification. If you buy a copy from the Tenth Amendment Center at the preceding link, your purchase will also help to fund our efforts. You can also find it at a lower price from other locations if your only goal is to get the book to the legislator.
If you need to know whether your representative received a package, contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com. If you provide your legislator with a book, let us know so we can keep track of who still needs them.
If these books are going to do anything more than just decorate a bunch of legislators' book shelves, our legislators need to hear from us!

Dakota Fanning
Dakota Fanning in Current/Elliott Boyfriend Jeans in Loved
Dakota Fanning was spotted taking a stroll through the city in New York. The actress wore a pair of Current/Elliott Boyfriend Jeans in Loved with some Chanel Couture Creepers and a leather jacket.
Boyfriend jeans and creepers seem to be a favorite of Dakota's at the moment. I have seen her wear quite a few different styles of each a couple of times already, but this is the first time I have seen her pair the two together. To my surprise, I think they are a great combination, especially since she kept everything else simple. Would you wear this combo together. You can click here to purchase these jeans from Shopbop.
Dakota Fanning in Current/Elliott Boyfriend Jeans
Dakota Fanning was snapped after leaving a local nail salon in Los Angeles. She has been busy promoting her new film Night Moves which she stars in with Jesse Eisenberg.
While out, Dakota wore another pair of Current/Elliott boyfriend jeans with a simple white blouse and sandals. I am surprised we have seen Dakota out in two similar styles from the brand lately, since usually we don't have too many sightings of her on the blog. You can buy Current/Elliott online from Shopbop.com.
Dakota Fanning in Current/Elliott Boyfriend Jeans in Sugar
Dakota Fanning was photographed doing some shopping in Los Angeles. She wore a pair of Current/Elliott Boyfriend jeans in Sugar with a gray t shirt and a pair of leather espadrilles.
We see Dakota out in Current/Elliott quite a bit, but one brand I'm surprised we haven't seen her in is Isabel Marant. I think it would match her style really well, and we've already seen her sister wearing the brand, so hopefully Dakota will become a fan too. You can buy these jeans online from Nordstrom.com for $116.

Different Take on Familiar Classics
posted by Raynor (RANDOLPH, MA) Feb 25, 2007
Member since Jun 2006
25 out of 29 gamers (86%) found this review helpful
1. Shooters : A Duck Hunt like Target Practice
2. Find Mii : A memory style game
3. Ping-Pong : Table Tennis
4. Bubbles : A fast paced "catch" game
5. Laser Hockey : Air Hockey
6. Billiards : 9-Ball
7. Fishing : "as stated"
8. Bull-Riding : Driving style knockdown game
9. Tanks : Remake of an old classic
Games 1,5,6,8, and 9 are actually ones I would recommend coming back to and playing again with other people. As for single player, the Medals awarded in this game are easy enough to come by, although you may hate having to actually play some of the games to earn them. Unlike Wii Sports not all the games come unlocked, a quick play-through (on single or multi-player) will free them, as well as give you a sampling of the games. I'd recommend renting the game at the very least for the Tanks and Billiards. However, if your planning on buying (like myself) I'd say its a good thing they packaged it with a controller as added incentive.
Very Good
Great Value w/Wii Remote

On to the game... The games themselves are all pretty simple. They are all designed to help you learn how to use the remote more effectively. There are a few fun games, such as shooting range, billiards, laser hockey, and tanks. There is also a game called Charge! where you are riding a bull knocking down scarecrows. The problem is that all the games lack depth. They consist of basically one level, and it is one short level. You will be done playing in a minute or two on each of the games.
You can earn medals on each game... Bronze, Silver, and Gold. I'm not sure what happens when you get all gold, I haven't earned all gold yet. I think the rating system on Wii Sports was better, earning points to earn and maintain a pro rating.
All things considered, I give this game a pretty descent rating because it is a great value at $10. If you already have all the remotes you care to have, don't bother buying this one.
Great way to learn how to use the Wiimote!

I enjoyed the games... there have been enough specific reviews here so I won't go into all that. But I will say this...
Though experienced gamers may find themselves bored after going through each one a couple of times, these games are PERFECT for young kids or really anyone new to the Wii system. The purpose of these games is to teach you how to use the Wiimote.
My 5 year old girl was having some issues with learning how to use the controls with other games. She is great at Bowling, but when it came time to use the Wiimote SUBTLY in other games, she had a hard time. But after just a few times playing the Wii Play games, her skills have improved DRAMATICALLY! My 8 year old boy enjoyed the games (especially the shooting game) and it has helped him refine his skills.
I highly recommend this game to new Wii owners or to parents who have young kids just learning how to play the Wii.
For experienced gamers, you may want to skip this... or add it to your library for your friends to play the first time they come over to play the Wii with you.

There are nine "mini-games" total. Most of which are pretty short, and little depth. These games are fun, and are a great use of the Wii-mote.
The Good :
Great use of Wii-mote
Pretty decent to play with a friend
Nine games in total to play
The Bad :
Not nearly enough to do, even with multiplayer
Some games could have easily had more modes
This game is worth picking up in the store for the extra Wii-mote, but I would not recommend renting it here on gamefly. It gets old after a day tops, even with multiplayer aspects in it.

bases and other changes.1 Physical security concerns are prompting the transfer of thousands of federal employees in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area from leased facilities in commercial centers to federally owned land on which several million square feet of new space will be constructed.
The bombing of two U.S. embassies in East Africa in 1998 was the catalyst for a $16 billion, 12-year effort to provide greater security for embassy personnel. This effort will be implemented by upgrading existing buildings and constructing approximately 160 new embassies and consulates.2
On the domestic front, socioeconomic trends are affecting how government organizations provide services. For example, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is realigning its health-care system to provide for more outpatient services and fewer long-term hospital stays. The number of hospital beds and amount of hospital space owned by the VA is being reduced, while the number of patients served through outpatient services and centers is being increased.
To respond to global and socioeconomic trends, federal facilities asset management divisions must continually evaluate whether the types, numbers, and locations of their facilities are aligned with their missions, and they must clearly have the capacity to carry out such evaluations. Strategic planning, decision making, and operations, in turn, require the capacity to identify which facilities enable or hinder the achievement of an organization's missions to formulate and evaluate alternatives for acquiring, renovating, or disposing of facilities and quantify the impacts of the various alternatives; to determine which strategies and mechanisms will be most effective in particular situations; and to effectively communicate that information to others throughout the organization, from senior executives to field office managers. Facilities asset management divisions will require staff with skills related to logistics/supply chain management, physical security, risk identification and management, and selection of the most appropriate project delivery strategies (e.g., design-build, design-bid-build).
Contracting with private sector firms to provide goods and services that were traditionally provided by federal organizations continues to be a significant trend worldwide. A survey of a dozen national governments in the late 1990s indicated that a large majority of the respondents expected that the most successful government structure in 2010 would be one in which the national government focuses
Four previous rounds of base closures (1988, 1991, 1993, 1995) resulted in 97 major closures, 55 major realignments, and 235 minor actions (GAO, 2005).
There are more than 60,000 U.S. government employees from 35 agencies plus additional thousands of support staff at 260 diplomatic posts worldwide; most of these facilities do not meet new security standards.

Hi, I am learning the HTTP protocol and one of the things I noticed is that it is stateless. When I was reading the 3253, it mentions that there are states. So far I have identified these groupings on states: checked in vs checked out locked vs unlocked Is there a state chart diagram anywhere that explains all of the states and transitions for this protocol? -------- Additionally is RFC 3648's ORDERPATCH method generally supported by HTTP servers yet?

Activists Picket Aussie Refugee Cricketer
February 21, 2013
By Stuart Shackleton
Australian anti-refugee activists today staged a protest against the selection in the Victorian cricket side of a Pakistani player who came to the country seeking asylum.
The small band of protestors gathered outside the Melbourne Cricket Ground on the last day of play between Queensland and Victoria, who had provided a State debut to Fawad Ahmed, 33, who succesfully sought asylum in Australia to escape persecution in Pakistan.
Police moved on the protestors, who were allegedly making inflammatory chants, including one in which they yelled in unison: "Cricket's for us, Cricket's for us, wear whites, be white and that's alright. Cricket's for you, Cricket's for you, as long as your Aussie and not some brown dude."
The officers also removed from one of the protestors a sign which read, "Shihad were a great band but Jihad is a bad plan."
Cricket Australia chief James Sutherland said he was shocked by the behaviour of the protestors who were "appalling in their discriminatory actions, despite their ability to craft a catchy slogan".
One Victorian fan who witnessed the protest described it as "really fully bad". "As far as I'm concerned it shouldn't matter where your'e from, if you can play cricket heaps good who cares if you are a different looking dark sort of fella."

Gets more than his fair share of 'respect' on CW. I'm not sure what the situation is with the general Australian public.
Don't think he's a very good bowler yet but it isn't hard to see him developing into one by simply playing more cricket.
When you've played so little FC cricket you're always playing catch up and the better batsmen will find you out a lot quicker than the more experienced twirlers, what gets me with Lyon though is he looks so basic, in a world where most of the new spinners tend to have a trick or two up their sleeve Lyon is just plane old Jane really,
Him and Narine have similar stories, both never played a lot of Fc games before playing Test cricket, they are close in age too (Narine is 24), so it will be interesting to see who develops the most over the next couple of years.

really nice (i've tested only AGA)
nice job !
great optimization problem and solution !
and very close to my job -> so i bought symobolic math toolbox and start to work on this example
I tried to adapt HydroelectricDamOptimization_largeScale to my problem (a 1 year problem with calculation every 8 hours)
and I ave some issues
some time the problem is not convex ! and i donc understand why
for example, in HydroelectricDamOptimization_largeScale we have MW2kW = 1000. with MW2kW = 1/1000, the probleme become non convex!
an idea why ? an idea to manage this issue ?
(this is just a stupid example, but I have this kind of issues when I try to adapt this exemple on real life)
thanks (and sorry for my poor english)

By Rob Clarke Driven Sports
Think back to your last workout. It may have been last night after work. It may have been this morning before work. Now think about a set you performed during that workout. What did you think about during that set?
On the surface this seems like a strange question to pose, but it has purpose. We are all fully aware that distractions can really ruin a set. If some asshat walks too close to the bar while youre mid-lift, or cuts right in front of you when youre using the mirror to check your form can really interrupt your flow. Or perhaps your training partner decides itd be funny to crack a joke while youre under the bar. Anything that breaks your concentration can become an issue because it diverts your focus.
The likelihood of any of you being able to think of anything in response to the question posed in the opening paragraph is slim. At best some of you may recall just one more rep or something to that effect. Or maybe the rep target you had set out to achieve before the set began. Apart from that I am guessing that many of you are simply drawing a blank. Its almost like time stood still for the duration of the set.
Your implicit guidance
In the past week Ive used the phrase implicit memory twice. First in the article about chiropractic treatment, and more recently in the Determining frequency series. The latter instance is more appropriate as it briefly discusses the concept of a movement or memory becoming so ingrained that you can do it without consciously thinking about it. It becomes procedural. A perfect example is when you get into your car and pull away. How many of you actually think about putting your seatbelt on, turning the engine on and putting the car into drive? You probably dont remember the last time you even thought about this procedure, but you may likely recall the times when something has broken your focus and you did something out of order which offset your entire routine. Thats when you have to consciously think what the hell do I usually do?
In the Determining frequency article implicit memory is discussed in relation to repetitions enhancing neural circuitry to become better at that particular movement. This is exactly what the top sports athletes have been doing for the majority of their lives practicing day-in and day-out to master their skills. When it comes to performance time they arent think about doing it, they are just doing it instinctively. When Rodger Federer is returning a 129mph serve he isnt focusing on his arm movement or wrist rotation. He isnt focusing on the ideal return trajectory or how fast he needs to swing his arm. All of those things he already knows due to year after year of practice ingraining into his implicit memory. His knowledge of physics and the body language of his opponent as they serve informs Rodger quite accurately where the ball will end up and gives him a good idea of the pace the ball will be travelling at. All he focuses on is the yellow blur of a ball as it crosses the court and the positioning of his opponent so he knows where to return it to give him the best possible chance of winning the point.
This is his external focus
Focus on the bar, not on the body
It goes without saying that when you are learning a new movement you have to consciously focus on what you are doing. This is your internal focus. Once you have mastered the movement you can benefit by not thinking about it at all. At that point you actually gain a benefit by shifting your focus onto the outcome the thing you want to achieve. This is your external focus, and within the gym it should be moving some heavy iron from the bottom of a rep to the top.
Time and time again studies have found the external focus superior. Fairly recently a study investigated internal vs. external attention-focusing in the bench press, smith bench press and squat. The researchers found that the participants that focused on the bar were able to crank out more reps than those focusing on their own body movement.
Other research has shown that an external focus allows you to generate more maximal force during an activity, as well as maintaining a higher force production during prolonged tasks.
You can train harder, for longer.
Less noise, more awareness
It is theorized that placing your attention on an external focus facilitates a refinement of the motor system, reducing any noise that may usually disturb the circuitry. In addition to the improvement in focus and delaying of fatigue, this has also been shown to improve accuracy, as demonstrated by research into basketball free-throws.
Aerobic performance can also benefit, allowing you to better manage your running economy. By focusing on the outcome you are better in tune with your teleoanticipation your central autopilot. Some of you may recall this as a topic discussed in relation to music last year here on the Driven Blog. Any time you have an unknown time or distance to cover you will find it harder to perform to your best. This is illustrated perfectly in an older study from the University of Southampton in the UK. In it participants ran under three conditions.
The first condition was a straight twenty minute run. These were trained participants so no trouble there. The next condition was a ten minute run, however as it appeared that the researchers were about to switch off the treadmills at the ten minute mark they told the runners to do another ten minutes without stopping. The runners found the first minute of this additional ten minutes highly exerting. Much more so than the exact same time period during the previous twenty minute run. This is because they had set their autopilot to ten minutes and adjusted their running economy appropriate to that duration. By being forced to double the duration at the last moment it took the participants a little while to re-adjust their economy and reset their autopilot.
The third condition was an unknown time. They simply had to get on the treadmill and start running. It turned out to be only twenty minutes, but their performance here was poor. Much poorer than the twenty minute run they did in the first condition. As they had no gauge to set their autopilot to they had to take it easy just in case the race was forty minutes or possibly longer.
Knowing the gauge is imperative for the best performance.
Keeping track
In weight lifting we have a similar autopilot that we refine over years of training. It is the internal guidance system that lets us know, from experience, whether the next rep we perform will be all of our own effort or will require the assistance of a spotter. If you dont have a spotter then you know exactly when you need to re-rack the weight to avoid being crushed under the bar. Of course we all need to make the mistake once to be able to learn from it. I can sense the majority of you reading this nodding in agreement. Once you make the mistake you never make it again.
But none of us wants to go into a set thinking about failure (meaning inability in this instance, not muscular failure). We want to mentally enter each set with the goal of progression and success. In order to do this we need the bench mark that we have to match and exceed. This means knowing what we achieved in the previous workout. What I am talking about is logging each and every workout. Ive mentioned this on more than one occasion, but a training log is imperative. I even dedicated an entire article to it.
By gauging previous workouts consistently you put yourself in a better position to gauge your next workout. The result is an all-round better performance, just like was noted in the runners at the University of Southampton.
To summarize the main focus points of this article in other words, dont think about what you are doing, think about what you are moving. And be sure to move it more times than you did in your previous workout.

These characters originally appeared in a graphic novel created by Frank Miller (yes that Miller……I think this was his last good work he did before he lost his mind writing trash like All Star Batman and Robin and Holy Terror). The Big Guy obviously was based on Tetsujin 28 (Gigantor) and Rusty was based on Astro Boy. The Big Guy later on appeared in subsequent Dark Horse comics (but surprisingly not in his own series).
He and the boy robot appeared in the sadly short-lived yet awesome animated series on Fox Kids. The cartoon was created by the same people responsible for the Men in Black animated series and Godzilla the animated series. The voiceover acting includes talents like Pamela Adlon (King of the Hill), Jim Hanks (Disney Infinity), R. Lee Ermey (Full Metal Jacket), and Clancy Brown (Highlander). It's a shame that this series didn't last long because it was really good (in fact, it improved upon the comics as far as character interactions are concerned). I'm even more surprised that this series isn't available on DVD/Blu-Ray.
I hope you'll enjoy this patriotic piece that I did.

Herald columnist Carl Hiaasen, who worked for Tropic in the late Seventies, believes both the newspaper and its readership will suffer. "As a part of a newspaper, you take pride in having a magazine, and so it hurts when it dies," he says. "But the more important issue is always the cost to the readers. I'm not naive. Certainly I can do math. I have no reason to disbelieve the accountants when they say it was losing money. On the other hand, there are certain things you do for readers because it is right."
The magazine's loss leaves Miami a little poorer, says Hiaasen. "The reality is that they couldn't make it profitable and that's sad, but the reality is also that everyone who lives down here, including the people who used to work on it, are going to have less to look forward to on Sundays. And that's a fact."
The outrage and passion expressed by former Tropic staffers indicate that Clifton may been right in deciding not to run the reminiscences. They might have reflected poorly on the Herald. Hall understands the motivation, but it nonetheless depresses him: "That's a business decision. We don't want our readers thinking more about how good Tropic is and the fact they are losing it. What's sad about that decision is how petty it is. If you are going to censor something, censor the news. Don't censor non-news. [A memorial issue] is not even news! It's just a bunch of guys writing as well as they can about something that mattered."
Ultimately it was the magazine's close relationship with its readers that the writers and editors remembered most. Several cited the Tropic Hunt, an annual puzzle/scavenger quest, as an example of the magazine's dedication to its audience. "We were always looking for ways to make people feel more alive, to give them a chance to cry, to laugh, to get them thinking," says Hall.
Weingarten traveled from Washington, D.C., to Hollywood without pay, to help with the November 1 hunt. He has aided the effort every year since leaving the magazine. Before the ceremony, Herald president Joe Natoli asked Weingarten and Shroder to return for future hunts. Weingarten says he not only refused, but exploded. "I like Joe Natoli, but this seemed like colossal gall to me," he remembers. "The Miami Herald asking this question is like a wife beater standing there with a baseball bat over the bloody corpse of his wife, suddenly realizing what he had done, and saying: 'Sweetie can we have one last quickie?'"

|Doc: Suns are not just run and gun
|11.06.09 at 7:42 pm ET
The Phoenix Suns have always epitomized the Wild West part of the Western Conference.
But Celtics coach Doc Rivers said before Friday's game to look beyond the image and consider what Friday's opponent is now.
Still with Steve Nash running the point but now with Channing Frye replacing Shaquille O'Neal in the post and Amar'e Stoudamire on the wing, the Suns have become a versatile offensive threat.
Can the Suns still run? Sure. They're averaging 111.2 points a game. But Rivers said that doesn't mean Phoenix is limited to just that aspect of the game.
"We want to run," Rivers said of his team, which is averaging 99.8 points a contest. "We would love to run and them not. They are going to but they are not just a running team. I think people don't give them their due offensively. They're more than a running team to me. They really execute in the half-court extremely well. They have the ability to not get fast-break points and still score 120."
|Making it official: Rondo re-ups with Celtics
|11.02.09 at 8:48 pm ET
WALTHAM, Mass. — While Rajon Rondo spoke earlier in the day about the long-term security his new deal would provide, the Celtics waited till every detail was in place before announcing Monday night that they have re-signed their All-Star point guard to a contract extension, thus avoiding restricted free agency next summer.
WEEI.com's Jeff Goodman confirmed through NBA sources that the extension is worth $55 million over five years.
The following was the release from the team:
The Boston Celtics announced today that the club has signed point guard Rajon Rondo to a multi-year contract extension. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.
'We are extremely pleased to be able to extend Rajon's contract,' said Celtics President of Basketball Operations, Danny Ainge. 'We believe that he is one of the elite point guards in the NBA and has a tremendous future ahead of him.' Read the rest of this entry »
|Rondo: 'I'm thankful for what I'm signing for'
|at 2:22 pm ET
WALTHAM — Rajon Rondo acknowledged for the first time following Monday's practice that he has agreed to a five-year contract extension with the Celtics. The deal is worth a reported $55 million.
"I'm thankful for what I'm signing for," Rondo said.
[To hear Rondo answer questions about his new deal, click here.]
[For audio of Doc Rivers' reaction and what it means to Celtics, click here.]
The deal between Rondo's agent Bill Duffy and the team has yet to be finalized but Rondo acknowledged it's a formality.
The team made Rondo available following Monday's practice as the team will fly to Philadelphia for Tuesday's game against the 76ers.
"Nothing changes," Rondo added. "Still have one goal in mind. It's great to have security but we're still focused on winning a championship.
"No, it's not, necessarily, happiness is. I couldn't deal without my teammates," Rondo said. "I've had great teammates for the past four years. When it's all said and done, we're still going to have relationships on the court, regardless of whatever certain guys make. The relationships you build with one another in the NBA, you can't compare it to money."
Rondo also added that he's grateful that his young daughter will be taken care of. Read the rest of this entry »
|Rondo on Hornets: 'It was intense'
|11.01.09 at 10:31 pm ET
Sunday's postgame access to Rajon Rondo came with a condition to reporters: No questions about Chris Paul.
After Rondo and Paul traded verbal barbs and even a double-technical midway through the second quarter, the two star point guards of the Celtics and Hornets got into it even more at the end of the fourth, with both teams needing to be separated.
"It was very intense," Rondo said. "I think it was our first close game. I think we handled it well. We didn't play extremely well tonight but when they made their run, we got stops and then we scored offensively."
Ray Allen played next to Rondo all night and he liked what he saw from the intense tete-a-tete between Rondo and CP 3.
'Yeah, they're both feisty," Allen said. "Both aggressive, in your face. They take the ball to the hole. Put you on your heels all game long. So I'm pretty sure it can get pretty chippy out there.'
And Allen didn't mind seeing that, as long as the teams left the hard feelings on the court and controlled each other coming off, which was a bit of a challenge following Boston's 97-87 win.
"Walk off the floor and say, 'Way to compete tonight,'" Allen said. "For those 48 minutes, I cannot stand you. I wanted to fight you. I wanted to do everything I possibly could. And when you walk off the floor you say, 'Way to battle."

|Ray Allen is not about to stop now
|10.31.09 at 1:41 am ET
With 3:58 remaining in the fourth quarter of a blow out win against Chicago, and right after the 'Gino Moment' when the crowd celebrates another home court win, Ray Allen was recognized for passing John Stockton and moving into 33rd on the all-time NBA scoring list with 19,715 points.
Next up is Tom Chambers with 20,049 at No. 32.
Allen had 20 points on Friday, moving him one point ahead of the man, who on Sept. 11, Allen witnessed head into Springfield and the Hall of Fame.
"I had no idea," Allen said. "It definitely is a great feeling. Stockton played 18 years. He's a Hall of Famer. I watched his induction. I was there personally."
Of course, Stockton didn't get there so much for his 19,711 points but rather his astronomical assist totals, 15,806 to be exact. That's an NBA record, as are his 3265 steals.
Allen is a different story. He will be heading to Springfield as a Hall of Famer some day as the most prolific and deadly 3-point shooter in league history. But in his mind that certainly didn't lessen the significance on Friday of the milestone.
"To be able to be in that company, you think about all the years, all the shots I've taken, and not the ones in games but off the court, in practice, it all seems worth it," Allen said. "It stands for something at the end of the day. People look up, and you're somewhere among greatness so I'd like to keep pushing."
Someone who can appreciate Allen's sharp-shooting skills is teammate Eddie House.
"That's a big moment," House said. "Hats off to Ray, a future Hall of Famer. I'm happy for him. But he's not done. He's got a lot more points to get."
Allen's 20 points also helped the Celtics to another easy win and a 3-0 start to the season.
"Winning any game, the day-and-a-half of preparation we put into it coming down from another game, it's a lot more I think than people can see from the surface," Allen said. "For us to go out there and the way we played tonight, moving the ball offensively, defensively we were all in the same accord, I couldn't ask for anything more."
|No suspension for Glen Davis
|10.30.09 at 8:09 pm ET
Saying he wants Glen Davis around the team at practice and in meetings, Celtics general manager Danny Ainge announced before Friday's game that the forward will not be suspended for his actions that resulted in a fractured thumb two days before the season opener.
"We have decided, as an organization, not to suspend Glen. We've levied a fine against him. We want him around the team, we want him with the team on the road. This was an unfortunate incident. Glen has apologized to owners and teammates and coaches and fans and everybody and it's just time to move forward and put it behind us."
Ainge had indicated 30 minutes before the season opener on Tuesday in Cleveland that Davis was being suspended, after owner Wyc Grousbeck indicated a suspension was "very likely."
More from Ainge:
On why Davis was not suspended: 'We want him around and he's part of the team. And we have that option to either have him around or suspend him and not have him around and so its pretty simple. Glen is well liked by his teammates and I think the better chance of him coming back and being prepared to play when he's healthy is being with the team..'
On whether he thinks Davis is still think out for 6 weeks: 'Yeah we're looking at six weeks, fast healer, maybe five.'
|Fast break: A quick take on Celtics-Cavs
|10.27.09 at 10:20 pm ET
CLEVELAND — More than anything Tuesday night, the Celtics showed they can take the best an opponent has to offer and respond strong.
Not just any opponent on any court. The Celtics beat the Cavaliers, 95-89, on the home floor of one of the teams that's expected to challenge Boston for Eastern Conference supremacy.
'¢ Player of the game: Paul Pierce. His jumper in the final minute cemented a 23-point virtuoso performance for the captain and Boston's first win of the season. He added 11 rebounds for good measure. Runner up: Rajon Rondo ' On a night when Danny Ainge said he continues to talk with Rondo's agent on a new deal, Rondo set the tempo. With chaos swirling around the team in the wake of the Glen Davis debacle and a double-digit deficit early, Rondo restored order on the court.
'¢ Turning point of the game: LeBron James gave the Celtics a gift when a Boston turnover with 4.7 seconds left in the third put the ball in his hands. He drove past Rasheed Wallace and had an easy lay-up, but the ball rimmed out and that seemed to give the Celtics a big reprieve. It also kept the crowd from exploding. Runner-up ' With 5:32 to go in the fourth. James hit one of two free throws to cut the C's lead to four, 80-76, but Kendrick Perkins converts a three-point play to answer.
'¢ The Celtics fell behind early by 14 twice, 19-5 and 21-7, but they closed the gap to 28-21 after one. Rasheed Wallace, Marquis Daniels and Shelden Williams, filling in for Glen Davis, all played significant minutes in the first quarter as the Celtics found their legs.
'¢ The Celtics turned up the defensive pressure in the second quarter. The team preached in the preseason that they will go only as far as their defense takes them, and it showed in the second, where they went from a seven-point deficit to a six-point lead, 51-45. They held the Cavs to 5-of-16 shooting from the floor. More impressive than the 31 percent they held the Cavs to from the field was the fact that Cleveland could only manage five field goals on their home court.
'¢ Thanks in large part to the above, the C's completely took the raucous Q crowd out of the game until a LeBron James three with two minutes remaining in the third.
'¢ Bench belief. With the Celtics holding onto a seven-point lead heading into the fourth, the Celtics took the court with Wallace, Daniels, Eddie House and Shelden Williams. Those four joined Ray Allen as Doc Rivers was able to rest his big guns. Wallace hit a big jumper from the right wing to extend the lead to nine with 11:25 remaining. Daniels drilled a three moments later and the lead was an even 10.
