The 'Verkehrsclub der Schweiz' (VCS), the Swiss Cycling Club, presented Zermatt with the "Mobil & ökologisch" award (mobile and ecologic) for a number of reasons, chief among them the Matterhorn village's convenient accessibility by public transport.
DetailsRacing up the Matterhorn in just under three hours
The Zermatt mountain guide Andreas Steindl is the fastest. He succeeded in running from the Zollhaus in Zermatt at the end of the village to the summit of the Matterhorn in 2 hours and 57 minutes.
DetailsThe old Monte Rosa Cabin no longer exists
The old Monte Rosa cabin of the SAC was blown up by the Swiss army on the 14th July 2011. A moving chapter of SAC mountain cabin history now belongs to the past.
DetailsHelicopter pilot and mountain rescue specialist of Zermatt get Heroism Award
With teamwork, knowledge and experience, Daniel Aufdenblatten and Richard Lehner from Zermatt saved the lives of three mountaineers. On Annapurna (Nepal) in spring 2010, they carried out the highest-ever mountain rescue – at 7000 metres altitude – by helicopter. In Washington DC today, they received on march 8 2011 the 'Aviation Oscar', the Heroism Award, for their feat.
DetailsNew Monte Rosa Hut awarded 2010 Solar Prize
An SAC hut with 120 beds faces enormous challenges. At 2880 m.a.s.l. there is no water or electricity supply and connections for waste water and sewage are also lacking. Furthermore, an SAC hut is exposed to extreme weather conditions.
Details2010 Solar prize for Zermatt Bergbahnen
The Matterhorn glacier paradise (Klein Matterhorn) in Zermatt with its viewing platform at an altitude of 3,883 metres above sea level is the sunniest place in Switzerland. What could be more natural that to utilise this environmentally friendly energy. The solar restaurant opened by Zermatt Bergbahnen AG on the south flank of the mountain for the 2008/09 winter season produces all the electricity for heating and ventilation using the photovoltaic system built into the facade. Thanks to the optimised design, the building fulfils the requirements of the Minergie-P standard. The energy concept is a role model for the entire Alpine region and it was therefore awarded the 2010 Solar Prize for new buildings in Zurich. For Zermatt Bergbahnen AG, however, this represents just the first step on the way to intelligent utilisation of solar energy with which to operate its infrastructure.

Too many options sometime make it harder for you to decide. The same is with web hosting, if you dig in details, a long list is waiting for you! So browse the net and go to Web Hosting Reviews and learn which one is best for you.
The best hosting for you
Before anything else, I would like you to know that the best advice I will give you now is to search well before finalizing your deal. The free hosts are made for personal websites where shared hosting is for small businesses. The dedicate server helps you achieve your bigger goals but it`s a bit expensive. If you know what your website needs, it will be easier for your to choose a host.
- Free Hosting
Nothing seems better anything free, right? This may be the ideal choice for people looking forward to create homepage and share it with someone else. We all are well aware that free hosting has been criticized for its poor features such as support and security. Along with these, the surprising fact is there are still only a few free hosts you can trust. Remember that free web host will only provide taste for maintaining a small website.
If you aim to establish an effective web presence with online business, You should know that free web hosting in this case won`t help you. You can log on to Web Hosting Reviews for more information on this topic!
- Dedicated Hosting
Whenever your business proves to be a hit, it demands more than just sharing resources. It is time for an upgrade, move to dedicated servers. As you are in the big league, now only dedicate servers are capable of meeting your requirements. But if you don`t have any experience, there are rare chances that you will succeed with this hosting type. If you need a dedicate server but don`t know anything about running or maintaining them. Then it's time for you to switch with managed hosting.
With this hosting type, the hosting is provider will take care of all management tasks. This will free you from the server duty and you can now pay more attention to other areas of your business. But always remember, managed service always comes with a higher price tag.
As you can deduce from its name, share hosting is the place where you have to share your sharing space on a server with someone else. Apart from the space, you will also have to share the cost of hosting. In short, shared hosting affordable and a proven solution for personal use and small business that are starting blog and e commerce but when you are hosting with a share host, you are completely expose to your neighbors. But if someone tries and goes for scripting errors, the entire serer has to suffer. If you experience sudden burst in traffic, you may run a bit slower. But if your server goes down, it will take you with it! You can learn more about share hosting with Web Hosting Reviews.

Morton attempts to keep Giants in the park
Righty has been tough to homer off; Hudson starts for San Francisco
Only two years after winning the World Series with a team that ranked dead last in the Major Leagues in home runs, the San Francisco Giants have been flexing a different identity. They have been living by the long ball, but that could be tough way to make a living in Tuesday night's second game of the series with the Pirates.
The Giants have shown more early-season power than in four decades, and their homer-fueled success -- the National League West leaders are only 5-4 when they do not homer -- will get a stern test against Pittsburgh right-hander Charlie Morton. The sinkerballer is difficult to take out of the park, having allowed only four home runs in his last 19 starts.
Morton will be opposed by Tim Hudson, and the two righties have an interesting bit of common history. They were both in Atlanta's rotation in 2008, and made consecutive starts once, Morton on July 22 and Hudson on July 23. That turned out to be Hudson's final start before being shut down with elbow pain and having Tommy John surgery.
The 2014 Hudson is pitching as well as he ever has.
"I've been locating, being able to pound the strike zone and just challenge guys throughout the game," Hudson said. "I think it's been very helpful that the guys have done a really good job of scoring some runs for me early in the game, to where I can be a lot more aggressive in the strike zone and challenge guys and it's translated into some quality starts."
A trio of G-men already have at least seven homers, something San Francisco was last able to boast 31 games into a season in 1970. Before Mike Morse (eight homers), Brandon Belt (eight) and Buster Posey (seven), it was Willie McCovey, Bobby Bonds and Dick Dietz (seven each).
It makes the Giants tougher to handle because "they've always been built on pitching and defense. Now they've gotten out of the blocks well offensively," said Pirates manager Clint Hurdle.
Hurdle, however, advocates that most home runs are thrown, not hit.
"All you've got to do, at least we do, is look at the home runs [the Giants have] hit -- at the quality and location of the pitches," Hurdle said. "You've got to make good pitches. Every hitter has a hot zone. Stay out of it."
Giants: 20-game winner in bullpen?
Of course not. But reliever Jean Machi earned his team-leading fifth win in Monday night's 13-inning game. He has more wins in 17 outings this season than he had in his first 59 big league appearances.
"I'm healthy, and [manager Bruce] Bochy has been bringing me into games whenever it's tied or we're one run behind," Machi said. "And the team has been able to come back to give me the wins."
Pirates: For starters, W's still missing
When the Giants erased all of Jeff Locke's 8-2 sixth-inning lead on Monday, it kept Pirates starters at three wins through the season's first 32 games, an amazingly low number.
Pittsburgh general manager Neal Huntington wouldn't totally dismiss wins as an indicator of starters' performances -- as many argue -- but conceded they are not the first thing he looks at when evaluating pitchers.
"If a pitcher is on a winning team and not getting wins, you have to understand why," Huntington said. "If he's on a losing team and getting wins, that's a very big positive. It's not the first thing you look at. In an era of starters going five to seven innings, if you don't score early, it's tough to get a win."
Worth noting
• Prior to Monday night's game -- when they scored all 11 of their runs without the benefit of a home run -- the Giants had homered 21 times in their last 11 games, and tallied eight of their nine runs in a three-game sweep over the Braves on home runs.
• Andrew McCutchen (4-for-7 Monday night) is 22-for-46 in his last 11 games against San Francisco.

posted by Dark0ne Site NewsEver since Valve announced their curated Workshops update for Steam Workshop back at the end of January and Bethesda announced an update to their Skyrim Workshop to remove the 100MB file size limit I've been meaning to write one of my long-winded, often nonsensical blog pieces that goes off on extreme tangents rife with radical speculation. It's been quite a while since I've done one of these, so excuse me if I'm rusty.

Author blocking
First up we've implemented the ability to block user's files, images and videos from showing on the site at all for you, much like how our tag blocking system works. If you block an author you will no longer see any new files, images or videos they add on the site whether it's in the hot files, file searches or otherwise.

This is the least subtle of the changes we've made recently. We've completely revamped the notifications system on the sites to be much more powerful and useful, especially for mod authors. Notifications are still located in the top bar of the site. If you have notifications you will see a globe symbol with a number next to it which indicates how many new notifications you have.

NMM 0.53 release and fixes
posted by Dark0ne Site NewsWe released NMM version 0.53.0 at the beginning of the week which includes a new mod activation queue window. The idea is to allow you to queue up multiple installations or uninstallations of your mods as well as not locking out the other functions of NMM while your mod actions are being processed.
This update also enables you to select multiple mods and decide whether to install them or uninstall them, potentially saving a lot of clicking if you're doing a fresh install of hundreds of mods. Where before you would have to select each mod individually and either double-click it or press the acti ...(continue reading the full article) -

The Nexus State of the Union - 2015
posted by Dark0ne Site NewsAs far as I'm concerned I'm dubbing 2014 "The Year of Stability and Sleep" for the Nexus. The first year where we finally grappled with and beat the recurring downtime issues that have plagued the site ever since its inception back in 2001, and, once we finally stabilised our new cloud and cluster setup around about the middle of the year, myself and the staff have had practically 5 months of uninterrupted sleep. No more text messages or phone calls at 3am telling us the sites are down again. That, in itself, makes 2014 a success for me.
Indeed, the sites have been so stable that it enabled me ...(continue reading the full article) -

Slow download speeds? Please use our Download Speed Diagnoser

We're continuing to work on the download setup within the CDN as we continue to learn all the little intricacies involved in such a complex setup but we're struggling to troubleshoot a lot of people's download speed issues, a lot of the time, because we're not getting the right sort of feedback.

August is typically our holiday month where most of us take at least a week or two off (or 4, in my case) to have our holidays, rest and recuperate away from the sites. I'll doubly apologise to those people who've sent in support tickets via the contact form. As I am the sole point of contact for support tickets if I'm not around they go unanswered, and a lot have gone unanswered this month (though I've tried to at least cover the Premium Members who are having issues with their payments).

Many people are (wrongly) blaming the new download system we added to the site back in the middle of June, which worked fine up until the Steam sales made everything go a bit crazy. To enable us to fully discount this update as a factor for those of you who are getting slow downloads and downloading issues we've re-enabled the old file server selection download method which we'll likely keep up and runni ...(continue reading the full article)

MILFORD, Conn. -- A group of Tesla Model S sedan owners, recreating a trip that led to a critical story by a New York Times reporter who ran out of power short of a charging station, cruised through part of Connecticut Saturday on their way to their final destination, Groton.
While their cars juiced up at a Tesla charging station on Interstate 95, about a dozen of these proud automobile owners refueled themselves at a Red Robin in Milford's Westfield mall.
Sitting around cleared plates and the remains of onion rings, the group pointed a finger at Aaron Schildkraut as the man behind the "Tesla Road Trip," that began at Tesla's Rockville, Maryland service center. Most of the people at the table were members of Tesla's web forum, and, while Schildkraut said he didn't start the thread that inspired the trip, he was the first to say, "Let's do it."
"Several other people said, "I'm in,— Schildkraut said. "Many of us owners were so incensed by the article."
So incensed, that they dropped what they were doing to book hotel rooms in Groton and try New York Times reporter John Broder's trip for themselves. They said they felt Broder misused his vehicle by not charging it fully at Tesla's charging stations; that he didn't manage his speed properly; and that, by leaving his car out in the cold, he allowed its batteries to run down.
A more detailed account of the spat Tesla CEO Elon Musk and the New York Times can be found here at The New York Time's website: http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/02/14/that-tesla-data-what-it-says-and-what-it-doesnt/.
To the folks at the Red Robin, the reasons for owning an electric car were varied. Bryan Murtha, of Owings, Maryland, drove 50 miles to meet up with the group at Rockville. He's owned all electric vehicles for more than a decade.
Dante Richardson, of Berlin, Maryland, bought his Tesla to cut down on the costs of his morning commute. While the base model Tesla sedan starts at about $50,000 after tax rebates, with high end models going for as much as $100,000, Richardson says the amount he saves on his 100 mile commute makes it worth it.
As for convenience, Richardson remarked, to a round of laughter, "I charge at home and plug into a 110 at work. It's a little bit inconvenient actually, because I have to drive around people trying to get into gas stations."
Rich Knausenberger, of Washington, DC, put a deposit down on a Model S nine months before it was available. He said he didn't miss the Porsche he sold for it one bit.
Knausenberger's wife, Lauren, joked that the couple's first child was this car -- the nine month wait not lost to them. She said her husband couldn't sleep for three days before the car was delivered. Lauren described its arrival as Christmas morning.
Clearly, the crowd at the Red Robin were the superfans of Tesla Motors (TSLA). They frequent the company's forum, they preach the supremacy of their electric automobiles, and they were dedicated enough a product to drop their lives for a day to drive hundreds of miles because a newspaper reporter ran out of electricity on the road and wrote about it. Forgetting the vehicle for a second, these are the kind of customers any company would kill for.
"Companies all around the world would be so fortunate to have just one customer like this in their portfolio," said George Blankenship, vice president of worldwide sales and ownership experience at Tesla Motors. "And we have lots of customers who believe in what we do and support what we do. I think that what they're doing today is incredible evidence of how people are supporting us as we try to do things that are going to change the world. I think what they're doing is just awesome.
Blankenship said Tesla watched the road trip develop on the forums, but in no way did Tesla organize or support the venture.
"It is all customer driven," Blankenship said, pun intended.

1) Cleaner code,
2) cleaner and more efficient protocol,
3) better support for GPU-switching,
4) better support for full-screen apps (try having a full screen window change the resolution under X, depending on your WM you'll get mixed results)
5) proper screenlocking (under X an app can bypass the screenlock if it really wants to)
6) lightweight enough that it can be used on tablets, phones or desktops.
7) Better multi-monitor support,
8) frame-perfect graphics-- no lagging, tearing or stuttering
9) also fun fact: its relatively future-proof. The wayland protocol really just moves pointers and buffers around to different sections, it lets other programs handle what those buffers contain, how the data got there and things like that. By letting third party handle the major implementation details and just having the protocol as barebones as possible it means if there ever comes a day when we have a big shift in how we do graphics (like X went through) we may not have to throw the protocol out the window or start bypassing it like we did with X, we just change the 3rd party bits to the new architecture./ style and keep plugging away
Any questions?

How many of you watched Alfonso Ribeiro recently win Dancing with the Stars? I stopped watching that show a few seasons ago but tuned in this time to see Alfonso. I loved the second place winner, but truly felt Alfonso deserved to win. He was the better dancer. He looked like a pro to me and he was older and hurt. He didn't act like a baby and whine like some of the other contestants I've seen in years past. He was a trooper and I'm so glad he won.
Rob Lowe has one of those gorgeous faces that will always make him good looking. He's going to be handsome as a 60 year old. He'll still be handsome at 90. He just has one of those faces. Rob became famous in the 1980's after appearing in several movies and thereby making him a cool member of the Brat Pack. (We'll talk about that later.)
My very first concert I attended was Andy Gibb at the Concord Pavilion (near San Francisco). I think it was 1978 and I went with my older sister and her friend. We couldn't get seats close to the stage so we sat on the lawn of this outdoor theater. I think there was a comedian who opened the show and then Andy came out. It was so exciting! He was wearing really tight yellow pants. My sister's friend took pictures which I still have today. When he waved at the audience, it felt like he was waving just at me. It was a special night. I never had Andy Gibb pinups hanging on the wall when I was a kid (I loved Leif Garrett and the Bay City Rollers) but I did like his music.
My favorite part of Karate Kid is when he wax off. Wait. What? Daniel-san. Wax on, wax off. Wax on, wax off.
Ralph Macchio was a very successful teen actor with some decent acting chops but unfortunately for him, he will forever be known as Daniel LaRusso from The Karate Kid.
Ralph Macchio was born on November 4, 1961 in Long Island. Ralph did some commercials early on and a movie. It was his role of Jeremy Welsh in the sitcom Eight is Enough that started getting him the pinups in the teen magazines and the looks from the junior high girls.
Clay Aiken is a nerd. I like nerds. I think they're sexy, especially if they're smart. Clay stood out when he auditioned for the second season of American Idol because of his nerdiness. I remember Randy Jackson being surprised at the big voice that came out of the tiny little nerd boy. I don't remember what Simon said, but I'm sure it wasn't nice. (I love Simon BTW. I just think he could word things a bit differently.) I don't think many people remember this, but Clay was cut from the American Idol competition. He made it to the round of 32 and was then cut. Bummer. He was chosen to return for the Wild Card round and won that which put him in the top 12. He had actually filled out an application to be on The Amazing Race when a friend urged him to audition for American Idol. Interesting. I think he chose correctly.
Leif Garrett was a gorgeous blonde boy who graced the covers of most teen magazines in the mid to late 70′s. He also graced most of the walls of my bedroom. I'm not really sure if he was an actor who sang or a singer who acted. He seemed to be mediocre at both, but it didn't really matter because he was gorgeous. I first noticed him in my Tiger Beat magazine. I was into Tony DeFranco at the time but he was getting older (he was pushing 18) and I was still just a young thing. Leif was on a TV show called Three for the Road which also featured another blonde hottie, Vincent Van Patten. FYI, Vincent is the son of Dick Van Patten from Eight is Enough. Vince is married to Eileen Davidson who played Ashley Abbott on The Young and the Restless and Kristen DiMera on Days of Our Lives. Anyway, back to my sweetie Leif.
So what do you all think about Chad Ochocinco getting 30 days in jail for slapping his lawyer's ass? Chad says it's a sign of respect. Whatever it is, I think it's nasty. BUT…..I don't think he meant any disrespect to the courts. I just think that's how he's used to saying "good job" or "cool". I wonder how the judge would have reacted if he had done a fist pump or a high five. Those are equally as stupid but are often used in today's culture. My opinion (and I'm always right) is that the judge should be deciding his punishment for the crime he was there for in the first place. What's next? Jail time if she doesn't like the way you look? By the way Judge wannabe Milian, thanks for taking up jail space with Chad which taxpayers get to pay for. If he truly deserved to be punished (which he didn't for the butt slap), add more time to his community service.
Hello! I used to have a pretty happening blog that made millions thousands hundreds…..okay, a FEW people laugh. It died somewhere. It's lost in cyberspace. It just went poof one day. (FYI, I went poof earlier.) My entire website, all 30,000+ items, have been moved to a new format. I figure now's a good time as any to start up the blog again. I hope there will be no poofing with this one.

text: Rt. 1 Almyra, Ark. 72003 26 January 1974 Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Wilkerson Rt. 7, Box 591 Benton, Arkansas 72015 Apparently it is required that you prove relationship to one of those entered on the previous rolls of the Quapaws. These records are all much later than I have in my files and I have not worked with the early residents of the Arkansas to their descendants into the period past 1850. I can state that Mrs. Wilkerson is definitely of Indian background from what I do have concerning the early families of the area and she is descended from those who were awarded lands under the 1824 Quapaw Treaty. Bartelimi Socia (Socie) is undoubtedly the son of the Baptiste Socie awarded 80 acres under the term of this treaty. Bart Socia married Francoise Coussot and the Catholic Church records contain an entry that on 15 Nov 1852 Patrich Behan baptised "Benjamin son of Bart Soci and Frances Coussot born 9 Oct 1852. Sponsors: Francis and Mary Cousotte." Benjamin, as Mrs. Wilkerson's birth record shows, is her father. Francis Cousott was married to Bart Socia as "Francis Bone" per Jeff. Co. Ark. Marriage Record A, p 56 on 1 July 1844. She had previously been married to Joseph Bone, Jr., son of the Joseph Bonne awarded 80 acres under the terms of the 1824 Quapaw Treaty. This marriage entered in the Catholic records shows that a special dispensation has been granted for the marriage because of consanguinity or blood relationship of the marriage partners on 9 June 1836. The civil record of the marriage is found in Jeff. Co. Marriage Book A, p 11. The Catholic records contain a baptismal record dtd 7 June 1820 for the children of Francois Coussot and Felicite Daigle: Pierre Daniel - godfather, Pierre Coussot; godmother, Etiennette Dodge Bernard - godfather, Bernard Bonne; godmother,Helene Embo Joseph Coussot - godfather, Joseph Bonne; godmother, Marie Imbo Francoise - godfather, Francois Nuismant; godmother, Francoise Vaugine Francois Coussot, father of Francoise who married first Joseph Bone and second Bart Socia, was the son of Francois Cousott who died before 1814 and is the Francois Coussott who received an award of 80 acres under the 1824 Quapaw Treaty. His parents were Francois Cousott and Genevieve Bartelemy, daughter of Joseph Bartelemy and Marguerite, Indian of the Kansas nation. Joseph Bone, Jr., son of Joseph Bone, Sr. and Mary Imbo, who married Francoise Coussott, dauther of Francis and Felicite Daigle, was also a descendant of Joseph Bartelemy and Marguerite as their daughter Therese married Francis Imbeau and daughter Maria married John Baptiste Imbeau.

MDS produces few symptoms until well into the course of the disease. When symptoms finally appear, they are not at all specific for MDS and may require extensive investigation to pin down their source. Symptoms may be due to any of the three principal functions of the bone marrow: oxygen carrying, blood clotting, and controlling infection.
If you experience any of these symptoms do not assume it is due to cancer. Most of these symptoms may be caused by other, less serious health conditions. If you experience any one of them, see your physician.
Symptoms due to Anemia
Anemia occurs when the red blood cell count drops. Symptoms of anemia include the following:
- Weakness
- Fatigue
- Rapid heart beat
- Shortness of breath
- Dizziness
- Headache
- Mood changes
In people with heart disease , anemia may cause the following:
- Angina —This condition is characterized by pain in the chest that feels like squeezing or pressure.
- Heart failure —This is the inability of the heart to pump the necessary amount of blood through the body, which causes fluid to pool in the liver, lungs, and other parts of the body. The first symptom is usually swelling in the feet, ankles, and legs.
In people with a history of cerebrovascular disease, anemia may increase the risk of:
- Stroke or stroke-like symptoms—This may include weakness or numbness on one side of the body, dizziness, difficulty swallowing, and mental confusion
- Transient ischemic attacks —Sometimes referred to as a "mini-stroke," this is temporary brain dysfunction due to a shortage of blood and oxygen.
Symptoms Due to a Bleeding Disorder
MDS may also decrease the number of platelets, which are essential for blood clotting. When blood clotting is impaired, the following symptoms may occur:
- Bruising
- Unusually heavy bleeding from minor cuts
- Heavy menstrual periods
- Bleeding from your gums
- Nosebleeds
- Rarely, spontaneous internal bleeding into the soft tissues or the gastrointestinal tract
Bleeding into the nervous system, including the back of the eyes (the retina), which can lead to blurred vision
- Any new onset of blurred vision should be referred to your doctor right away for prompt treatment.
Symptoms Due to Infection
MDS damages your immune system, making it unable to fight off even minor infections. This may cause prolonged or progressing infections. Skin and respiratory infections are the most common.

NBA Preview from The Sports Network Wednesday, December 12th (All times eastern) Cleveland Cavaliers (5-17) at Indiana Pacers (10-11), 7 p.m. (Sports Network) - The Cleveland Cavaliers picked up their best win of the season on Tuesday when Kyrie Irving returned for a home victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. They will try to keep the momentum going Wednesday when they visit the Indiana Pacers. Irving came back after missing 11 games with a broken finger and torched the Lakers for 28 points and 11 assists. He shot 4-for-6 from the 3-point line, but it was a great team effort. C.J. Miles, starting at shooting guard for rookie Dion Waiters, who is out with an ankle injury, matched Irving's 28 points. Miles did it on 5-for-10 shooting from beyond the arc. Anderson Varejao chipped in 20 points and nine rebounds and Alonzo Gee netted 17. "I felt good," said Irving, the reigning Rookie of the Year. "We competed on both ends of the floor. It wasn't me playing the Lakers. I'm just proud of our guys." The victory snapped a five-game losing streak and a four-game slide at home. Wednesday's game will be telling for Irving to see how his finger responds on the second of a back-to-back. "I think I'll be fine," Irving said after the game on Tuesday. "I'm a little sore now, but I kind of knew that going in. Just ice it and be ready for tomorrow's game." The Pacers come into Wednesday's tilt the losers of two in a row, including a home loss to the Denver Nuggets on Friday and a road loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday. The Pacers played a pretty good game against the defending Western Conference champions. All five starters scored in double-figures, highlighted by 21 from David West. Indiana turned it over a season-low seven times against the Thunder, but Oklahoma City is one of the best teams in the league and the Pacers aren't quite there yet. "I'm happy that our offense is continuing to grow. And I like (how) we guarded them," said head coach Frank Vogel. "We played a heck of a game and we lost to a heck of a team." The Pacers play their next two at home. Indiana has bested Cleveland in eight of the last nine and the Cavs haven't won in Bankers Life Fieldhouse since Jan. 29, 2010, losing four straight there. 12/12 10:33:13 ET Powered by The Sports Network. |
