High school basketball: Alta's defense comes up big in rivalry game
SANDY — There's always more bite in a rivalry game, which was certainly the case when Alta's boys basketball team hosted Jordan on Tuesday night.
In a game that was called tightly throughout, Jordan did most of the biting as it struggled to adjust to both the officiating and Alta's suffocating defense.
With Jordan coach Rob Geertsen chalking it up to "one of those nights," Alta coach Jim Barker couldn't help but grin with a bit more satisfaction than normal following his team's 52-36 victory. Outside of an insignificant technical foul late in the game, the Hawks kept their cool and defensively harassed the 'Diggers into shooting just 23 percent from the field as they scored 30 points below their average.
"We know Jordan. It's always going to be a brutal, tough game, and there's going to be a lot of physical play, but I think our kids rose to the challenge tonight," said Barker. "I think that's the one thing we've done pretty well all season, we've adjusted to whatever type of officiated game it is."
Alta improved to 2-0 in region play with the victory, but Barker was just as pleased to see his players finally relax.
With his team clinging to a 17-15 lead following a sloppy first half, Barker told his players to play confidently and stop being so afraid to fail. Sure enough, Alta came out and scored five quick points to open up a 22-15 lead and it never led by less than five points the rest of the game.
"We were much more aggressive and played without a fear of making mistakes," said Barker.
Following a first half in which his team committed seven offensive fouls and made just 4 of 15 shots, Geertsen had a different message for his players at the half.
"At halftime, that's all we talked about was trying to adjust to the way the game was being called and played, and in the second half we weren't able to make the adjustments to play in a game like that," said Geertsen.
Alta's game plan going in was to make things difficult for Jordan, and no one was immune from the struggles.
Leading scorer Ryan Nemelka, who averages nearly 15 points, dealt with foul trouble all night and left the game for good early in the fourth quarter with just four points and one 3-pointer. He'd made 34 3-pointers entering the game.
"They have a lot of kids who can shoot, so we were just focused on being solid, get a hand up on shooters and battle through screens," said Barker.
The frustration finally boiled over for Jordan with 3:02 remaining in the game when Trent Neilson was whistled for a flagrant foul while trying to slow down an Alta fast break.
Zack Zdunich led Alta with 13 points, while Jarett Anderson chipped in with 10 points and a pair of 3-pointers.

Syria's Problems Cross Border Into Lebanoan
Originally published on Tue May 29, 2012 6:18 am
Recent sectarian violence has claimed the lives of more than a dozen people in Lebanon. The fighting was sparked by the conflict in neighboring Syria. Analysts fear that without uniform leadership in Lebanon, and a workable solution to stop the violence in Syria, a regional sectarian war is in the offing.

Miami Vices: Why Every Weekend Is a Party
BY Diane Anderson-Minshall
September 12 2011 5:00 AM ET
Miami Gay and Lesbian Film Festival, May
Although based in
South Beach, the filmfest offers screenings throughout Miami-Dade County
and Fort Lauderdale, and though the big shindig happens in May, the
organization sponsors events throughout the year—like September's
exclusive screening of the German lesbian vampire hit We Are the Night.
The fest brings in more than 10,000 visitors every year to watch films
that offer historical and contemporary perspectives on the gay, lesbian,
bisexual, and transgender experience. Plus, the parties are even hotter
than the ushers. MGLFF.com

Sony had some other big news to share at CES other than how many PlayStation 4 consoles they sold (4.2 million if you're counting). Remember when Sony purchased the Gaikai streaming service? It's finally ready for consumer use.
With this new PlayStation Now service, PlayStation owners can stream PlayStation 3 games through their PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation Vita systems. Once the entire PS3 library goes live with the service, backwards compatibility will no longer be an issue with the PlayStation 4.
Sony doesn't want to stop just with PlayStation systems. They will expand the service to their BRAVIA TVs, tablets, and smartphones. Sony will also eventually offer a game rental service with PlayStation Now.
The beta program for the service will start at the end of January, and Sony hopes to roll out PlayStation Now in its entirety (with a limited PS3 library, of course) by the summer. Sony has not said when or if they will include PlayStation One and/or PlayStation 2 games with this service.
In addition, be aware that this service does not allow access to PSN games you've already purchased. This will be a separate service from the PSN and even from PlayStation Plus. No word on subscription fees as of yet either.
Whisky | Jan 07 2014, 12:49 pm EST | |
I am confused how this "streaming" = backwards compatibility... you still have to have the "old" console to stream through to the "new" PS4, right? |
cracker101 | Jan 08 2014, 03:14 am EST | |
It doesn't stream from the PS3, it streams from the PlayStation Now service(online). So its more like Gamefly. And the article didn't say it WAS backwards compatibility, but rather that it wouldn't be an issue because of the service, which I disagree with. While it will allow a person to play PS3 games on their PS4, its only through a subscription, so you can't just play games you already own for PS3. Course' I'm a PC-Tard so it doesn't affect me :) I might have to borrow a PS3 to play Last of Us, but beyond that I have no desire to play on any consoles. |

Rattan desk. ***** Janet from Greensboro, GA – Verified Buyer We were very pleased with the rattan desk with a glass top. It is very stylish and seems to be of high quality. The only negative is that the desk chair sits a little high for me. (I am 5'1"). |
Beauty more than Function Margaret from Rangeley, ME – Verified Buyer Love the look of this desk. That is what is best. The drawers are a little rickety, and I feel that for the price, it should have been better quality. Also, while the bottom drawer is big enough for file folders, it is not the right size for either letter or legal size. We had to figure out how we were going to make it work, and finally settled on an additional purchase of an adjustable hanging file frame to put inside the drawer. The chair is excellent, very sturdy and comfortable. Again, I feel that for the price, everything should have been quality, but it was not. No problems with shipping at all. |
Computer Desk SANDRA from Pennsylvania – Verified Buyer I really have enjoyed this Polynesian Computer Desk with chair, I thought the quality of it was good. The finish was beautiful and we are really happy with it. |
Good Products at a fair price and fast delivery Thomas from Dana Point, CA – Verified Buyer We wanted a desk of this style with draws. Wayfair had the product we were looking for. Ordering was easy and delivery was fast. We are happy with our purchase. |
Just like shown in the pic! Yan from Secaucus, NJ – Verified Buyer We got it and it is already pre-assembled. Greats great. Fits perfect with the tropical theme I was going for. |
Exactly what the descriptions said. More beautiful in person!! Shannan from Newbury Park, CA – Verified Buyer The delivery was awesome and so is the desk. Matches perfect in our Polynesian themed home. |
Tropical style looks great! Cynthia from MD – Verified Buyer Great size for smaller space. Arrived earlier than estimated and delivery was great. |

Social networking: Young adults searching for a way to connect
Number of Utah young adults is growing
SALT LAKE CITY — Twenty-seven-year-old Janae Jacobs has always had many friends.
From kindergarten to college, play dates to parties, each social network has facilitated the cultivation of meaningful relationships.
But when Jacobs graduated from BYU and moved from Provo to a professional adult world in San Jose, Calif., she felt very alone.
"Without a close student community, I had no links to events that formed my social network," Jacobs said. "I knew nobody."
Jacob's story is not uncommon. As college graduates leave the cocoon of a strong social support network, learning where and how to meet people in the professional adult world as a young adult can help many feel connected again.
In 2000, young adults, ages 25 to 34, consisted of 14.6 percent of Utah's population, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. That number continues to climb. By 2010, young adults consisted of 16.1 percent of Utah's population.
Great effort is given to networking for careers, with educators and mentors offering help to young adults as they head out into the world. But how do you meet someone for friendship, companionship, or for love?
Learning to look up
Expanding a social network is a matter of checking into the world a bit more, said Tamara Duricka Johnson, dating coach and author of "31 Dates in 31 Days."
"Once you stop watching the sidewalk and learn to look up, you'll see that there are opportunities to be connected everywhere," Johnson said. "Wake up, be present, be involved and be an active participant."
Johnson said she learned this lesson the hard way. After being dumped for the second time in one year, Johnson, then 30, said she felt like she had somehow become the world's worst dater.
"My love life was toppling like a skyscraper-sized game of Jenga," she said.
Johnson decided she would tackle the root of the problem by going on a first date every day for a month. Johnson launched a campaign to get these dates. It's a process she says taught her about social networking, in general.
"I started my project with three dates set up," Johnson said. "I was to the point of not being ashamed to basically beg for dates."
She posted online and blogged, but the number one way she met people was through her friends; she started with the social network she had and branched out, and learned an important lesson:
Don't come with an agenda, Johnson said.
"People are much more likely to respond to you if you come as a full person, as opposed to coming with an agenda. Hand them a free smile, rather than a business card."
The young professional is surrounded by people with similar interests, Johnson said. "Use that to your benefit. Invest in the people around you already and expand."
Johnson found that each person she knew was a hub to an entirely separate social network.
"Ask to join a friend with her work buddies for dinner. You may find great social opportunities in the most unpredictable places," Johnson said.

Philadelphia is one of the best sports city in America but for whatever reason fans don't always show up to watch their basketball team. The main reason is because the 76ers have been an average team for many years. While the other three pro teams in the city are constantly making the playoffs.
This summer the 76ers traded for Andrew Bynum from the Lakers in part of the 4 team Dwight Howard trade. This trade has 76ers excited. According to Darren Rovell of Espn 76ers ticket sales are going up.
Friday, team CEO Adam Aron told ESPN.com the Sixers have doubled their season-ticket base (92 percent of season-ticket holders renewed with some prices raised) and quadrupled sales of their 10-game plans as compared to last year.
While all the Dwight Howard talk has been about the Los Angeles Lakers don't forget about the Philadelphia 76ers.
76ers head coach Doug Collins called the Olympics for NBA. During one of the broadcasts here is what he had to say about the four team trade.
"When you think about adding Andrew Bynum, a big man who can score in the paint, rebound and block shots — something we desperately needed — and Jason Richardson adds another shooter to our lineup, so I'm very excited.
"On the flip side of that you have to trade somebody and Andre Iguodala had a brilliant career for the Philadelphia 76ers. I coached him for two years, he helped me win a lot of games. I'm very, very appreciative of him and I wish him well in Denver."
I really this deal for the 76ers they need the star player that they have not had for a while. Not bad when you can add the second best center in the game and he is still young. Maybe Bynum can bring 76ers basketball back?
Some experts even say they would take Bynum over Howard. Of course Bynum will have to resign with 76ers after he becomes a free agent next season. So far it sounds like Bynum wants to resign in Philly. He grew up close to Philly.

Governor Linda Lingle vetoed the civil unions bill after reviewing the bill for months. "There has not been a bill I have contemplated more or an issue I have thought more deeply about during my eight years as governor than House Bill 444 and the institution of marriage," Lingle said at a news conference. "I have been open and consistent in my opposition to same-gender marriage, and find that House Bill 444 is essentially marriage by another name."

Never mind the 'war on terror' rhetoric, writes Nafeez Ahmed.

Promises: Social Security ran a $47.8 billion deficit in fiscal 2012, drawing in even less than it paid out last year, with just 1.67 workers supporting each retiree. But instead of confronting the truth, the left still denies reality.
According to official Social Security Administration data this week, the program's incoming cash from the working population and their employers came to $725 billion in fiscal 2012 while it paid out $773 billion in cash and overhead.
That's as the number of retirees and disabled using the system grow 10,000 a day to more than 57 million people currently, according to research by CNS News editor Terence P. Jeffrey.
And the trust fund? With so many new beneficiaries, the Social Security trustees say it's fallen to just $2.7 trillion and is set to run out in 2033 — not 2036 as projected just last year.
Since 2007, Social Security has moved from an $81 billion surplus to a $58 billion deficit — a swing of $139 billion into red ink, according to a news report by IBD's own Jed Graham. Over the next 20 years, Social Security deficits alone will hike total U.S. debt by 18% of GDP.
That means only 75% of promised benefits can be paid out from the trust fund through 2086, and that's after a legally mandated 22% cut in benefits. So like France and other western nations with similar shortfalls, either taxes must rise or benefits must be cut further.
That's a picture of unsustainability. But with millions of Americans depending on the program, it also ought to raise fiscal alarms in any responsible government.
Incredibly, under President Obama, it's not. The left has created a cottage industry of opposing any meaningful effort to end the rapidly accelerating slide downward, with all sorts of denialist arguments against basic math.
The AFL-CIO, which runs various activist operations dedicated to halting any reform of Social Security, basically denies there's any crisis. It insists the trust fund — which is loaded with government IOUs, not money — is enough, and refers to any call to fix the broken system as "sky is falling Social Security coverage."
The union claims that interest earned on government IOUs in the trust fund will be sufficient to finance the mess and advocates tax hikes until eternity to the extent the trust fund fails. "Flash! Social Security Is Not Doomed," its website blares.
Mother Jones' Kevin Drum has a more subtle argument — that in the past, Social Security taxes were purposely too high. This benefited the rich, he argues, who got lower income taxes as a result.

Gaming reviews: Pikmin 3; The Raven: Legacy of a Master Thief; New Super Luigi
Michael Plant
Michael Plant is chief editor and writer of gaming ezine and blog GamesCatalyst.com, as well as editor of 'The Independent''s games review printed in the Saturday supplement 'Information'. Established in February 2011, Games Catalyst endeavours to bring its unique brand of fact and satire to the videogaming community and, in tandem with 'The Independent', hopefully turn a few non-believers on to gaming while we're at it.
Friday 26 July 2013
Pikmin 3
Wii U
Pikmin returns after an extended hiatus and delivers exactly what any fan would expect: the continued corralling of the titular helpful herbivores, all wrapped-up in glossy HD visuals courtesy of Wii U. Series stalwarts Captain Olimar and Louie are this time ousted as principal leads by a brave trio of new astronauts, Captain Charlie, Brittany and Alph. The three have crash-landed on the planet Koppai, leaving them seeking both their ship's missing parts and a source of food.
Division of labour is the order of the day, then, and it's here where the console's unique functionality comes to the fore, with players able to set separate destinations for each character by use of the touchscreen map. While the addition of rock and air pikmin adds to an already rich dish, it's the wistful charm of witnessing your pikmin fetching, carrying and bashing monsters that is the chief selling point. Pikmin 3 might be little more than a spruced-up take on its predecessors, but it's still nothing less than essential for Wii U owners.
Michael Plant
The Raven: Legacy of a Master Thief
£20.99 (inc. all three episodes)
Nordic Games
Part one of this point-and-click series plays like a homage to the complete works of Agatha Christie. There's a trip on the Orient Express, a cruise aboard an ocean liner (complete with regulation murder victim) and a lead character, one Constable Zellner, who is surely a distant cousin of Hercule Poirot. Subsequent episodes might be wise to feature more challenging conundrums; but this is still a promising start into the mystery of the Raven's return.
New Super Luigi U
Wii U
To mark the "Year of Luigi" – as Nintendo has christened 2013 – the company has rejigged its Wii U launch title New Super Mario Bros U, removing Mario and installing his oft-dismissed, green-overall-clad brother in his place. What follows is some of the most challenging Super Mario Bros platforming since The Lost Levels. Pixel-perfect jumping, punishing platform configurations and an absence of mid-way points define Luigi's game, in a sometimes frustrating adventure that's not for the faint of heart.
