Malcolm Lee scored 20 points and Reeves Nelson added 16 as UCLA beat New Mexico State, 100-68, Tuesday night at Pauley Pavilion.
Tyler Honeycutt and Michael Roll added 14, and Jerime Anderson scored 13.
"We needed it bad," UCLA coach Ben Howland said after his team snapped a five-game losing streak. "It's no fun to lose. I'm happy for our guys. It's been tough."
The ending wasn't entirely happy for UCLA. Senior forward James Keefe left the game after injuring his left shoulder in the first half. Howland said that the shoulder had popped out of its socket before being pushed back in.
"We won't really know a whole lot until (Wednesday)," Howland said. "I would be surprised if he'll be ready for Saturday (at Notre Dame) but I hope he'll be ready in the not-too-distant future."
Nelson was also injured, taking an elbow to the right cheek. A small cut is visible below the bruise on his right eye.
"I just keep looking like a boxer more and more," Nelson said. "That's fine with me."

Sex assault suspect in Boulder wanted for attacking woman during 4:30 a.m. fast-food run
Big pic below.
Walking alone in any city -- even one as seemingly safe as Boulder -- during the early morning hours can lead to bad things.
The latest evidence: a sexual assault on an eighteen-year-old woman making a fast-food run early Saturday morning. Page down to see a sketch of the suspect.
According to the Boulder Police Department, the woman was walking along the 28th Street frontage road at about 4:30 a.m. when she was grabbed from behind and sexually assaulted. To make matters even worse, an arm she'd broken several weeks ago was snapped again during the assault.
The suspect is described as a light-skinned, green-eyed African-American male wearing glasses. He's approximately six-feet tall with a three-inch, light-brown afro that may have been supplemented by a hair pick. At the time of the attack, he was wearing a purple shirt with neon-green lettering and khaki pants.
Anyone with info about the case is encouraged to contact the BPD tip line, 303-441-1974, or Northern Colorado Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). Look below to see the full-size sketch.

I Wish I Could See You... (MifunexBlind!Reader) "Miss. ______, their's going to be a new teacher joining the DWMA today, and I want you to show him around. Can you do that?" Lord Death asked you.

People have asked you why you didn't speak, but all you did was shrug and walk away. You yourself didn't even know the exact reason why you didn't talk much.

Vegetarians, front and center! Diners come to this two-story restaurant (called Batzal Yarok in Hebrew) for the city's largest selection of garden-fresh salads with interesting toppings, as well as delicately cooked vegetable quiches, fresh fish, sushi, blintzes, and wonderfully authentic pizzas. Noodles tossed with vegetables in ginger and soy sauce make an appetizing dish. They also serve cheese toast—try the one with Bulgarian cheese, olive oil, and black olives. Portions are large (it's acceptable to split a dish); if you have room, opt for a wedge of cream cake. Beer and wine are available. Both floors are crowded and sometimes claustrophobic, but there's plenty of outdoor seating.

"I am proud to say that we worked with 50 different companies last year," said Tio. "To me, that's what makes what we do rewarding."

Sydney Peguignot, one of the Whitley County Dazzlers' cheerleaders, got to take an individual picture with guest speaker Lauren Potter during a meet and greet for a banquet in Fort Wayne that the Dazzlers performed at. The Dazzlers are a special-needs cheerleading group out of Whitley County.

Cumbrian villagers hail victory as homes rejected
Last updated at 14:36, Friday, 14 June 2013
Villagers are celebrating after plans to build new homes were refused.
The rejection of the proposals in Wetheral comes in the same week that planners deferred making a decision on whether to allow 125 new homes in Dalston.
Magnus Homes had hoped to build six new houses in the centre of Wetheral, on a car park behind Lime House. The property is already in the process of being converted into nine luxury flats.
The proposals had sparked outrage among villagers, who claimed the site would be over-developed.
The decision on Monday, by Carlisle City Council's development control panel, was met with cheers and applause by the protesters.
The application had been amended from a previous version, reducing the number of properties by one. Both proposals had been recommended for approval by planning officers.
John Askew, speaking on behalf of the 70-strong Save Wetheral Village group, said that despite the changes, the proposals still failed to comply with the local plan and did not enhance the character of the Wetheral Conservation Area.
In a statement after the meeting, the campaigners said: "We have been very disappointed that, despite about 100 letters of objection, together with very detailed representations from the parish council and the Save Wetheral Village Group, planning officers continued to recommend approval for these houses.
"The council's heritage officer had made clear in a memorandum to planners, that these plans were unacceptable in this form.
"We are pleased that councillors decided the planning officers were wrong to ignore his views."
Bob Taylor, Magnus Homes' agent, insisted the proposals complied with local planning policy and the views of residents had been taken on board.
"It is a sustainable location with easy access to public transport," he added.
Councillor Barry Earp questioned why some of the new homes could not be moved further away from the existing buildings.
Fellow councillor Willie Whalen said he was disappointed that – since the first plan was refused – there had not been constructive discussions between the developer and the villagers.

Sanitation Workeron February 4, 2013 at 12:00 am
This is another one of those clips that's been sitting in my notebook for a long time waiting for the right story. After pursuing and rejecting a rather ambitious direction of two sanitation workers discussing the dissolution of one's marriage using nothing but garbage-related metaphors, I dumped everything but the metaphor idea and wound up with this.
I tried without the last line, and I tried variations of the last line, but to me, nothing packed quite the same punch. The strip needs the contrast of a strong, vulgar, stupid final line, and the line I ended up with just seems to be the line it needs. I provided the papers with a clean option, but it's just not the same.
MRS. SHOEBOX'S ASSESSMENT OF TODAY'S STRIP: *laughter* *pause* *blink* *more laughter* Nice!

Warriors Owner Cohan Has Talks With Two Potential Buyers
Published July 9, 2009
|Ellison Reportedly Has Talked With Warriors
Owner Chris Cohan About Buying Team
STEP FORWARD? In California, Cam Inman writes under the header, "Hooray, Warriors For Sale." News that the team is "indeed for sale should tickle the loyal but frustrated legion of fans who've endured far too many playoff-less seasons under Chris Cohan's ownership." And while "several obstacles likely are ahead until a buyer agrees to Cohan's asking price," this moment "calls for the most optimistic outlook toward a better future" (CONTRA COSTA TIMES, 7/9). In Oakland, Monte Poole writes taking over the franchise from Cohan is "like being handed a map with directions to the good life," as Oracle Arena "should be good for another 20 years." The team also has a "rabid fan base with a history of tolerating defeat but clearly eager to embrace even modest success." The notion of a new owner taking over the team "sends spasms of delight through a devoted and passionate fan base" (OAKLAND TRIBUNE, 7/9).

we placed an order and had it delivered. Found out the order was wrong, called them and they called me a liar and would cost $3,oo more to deliver the right dish. 1 hour later called them and they decided not to take care of me their customer. Didn't bother to call me back and left me hanging. I never did get to eat or get my right dish or my money back. I would have to pay again for both.

This unit #115 was exchanged for another time share week. The ratan furniture was "tired" and could use updating. The tile floors were great ! The carpet was old and really needed to be replaced. Our unit had 1 BR, Murphy bed and 1 1/2 baths with a full kitchen and lots of accessories. It was a great location for me and the kids. We mostly just slept there and the beds were comfortable. The courtyard and pool were really nice. It looks like they were beginning to renovate the building so far mostly on the outside. Across the street was a private enterance to the beach..nice! The location was good close to Lauderdale by the Sea with lots of things to do in the area.
I must say that "Howard" the front desk / concierge was "awsome". Howard assisted with age appropriate places for the kids and hot spots in the area. Having kids of his own he was very knowledgable of what to do and went over above and beyond to make sure all our needs were met. (There were many!) "Howie your the best"! Customer service that can't be beat !!! I have to thank John too for helping the kids open the coconuts..the hard way!

Those generous boys in Mystery Jets have offered us a taste of their forthcoming album, Serotonin,tentatively set for release in July. Head over to mysteryjets.com to listen to "Flash a Hungry Smile", while viewing the front page photo, which appears to be a slightly disgusting literal interpretation of the song's title. If "Flash a Hungry Smile" is any indication, Mystery Jets' third release should see the band further honing the pop sensibilities showcased on previous release Twenty-One. Enlisting Chris Thomas, who has worked with everyone from Pulp to Paul McCartney, as producer should be further indication of this. On "Flash a Hungry Smile" at least, all the capable hands seem to be working in harmony, as even the whistling bit resists being overly cutesy.

The Magic lost a chance to make the playoffs -- and exorcise Dwight Howard's ghost -- when free agent Paul Millsap agreed to return to the Atlanta Hawks.

The Orlando Magic have released the rosters for the two teams they will field in the Orlando Pro Summer League.
As expected, Elfrid Payton, Aaron Gordon, Mario Hezonja, Devyn Marble and Tyler Harvey will play together on one team, although it should be noted that Payton and Hezonja are not expected to play in all five of their team's games.

Why so few trades?
Anybody notice how few real deals have happened this year?
More coaches have been fired than trades made.
i think it has something to do with the new CBA... contenders cant improve there teams as much as they would like to because they dont want to loose future assets along with the player they aquire, and not everyone wins the cup obviously, so many teams just would rather keep what they got and hope it pans out
Agree about the CBA being a big part of the reason. No team seems to want to assume a contract that runs beyond this season, while teams looking to trade just want to move players who have long term deals for reasonably large sums of money.
I wonder if we're going to see a bit of a reversal of the norm this season at the deadline. Players who will be UFA might command a premium price while players signed for another couple of years might be had for far less than expected as some teams try to trim the future fat.
i'll agree
simply put, with the new CBA in the near future there are just too many sellers and not enough buyers.
But what about even-salary deals?
That and with the boatload of guys retireing complicates things.

Review quote
"Another great offering from Steve Hullfish. There are so many texts out there covering so many different aspects of post-production. Yet the final, all-important step of color correction and finishing has been a true tradecraft. The only way you learned was by sitting at the feet of a master. Steve has demystified much of that and given both beginners and professionals a fantastic resource. Reading through this text is like sitting at the feet of the masters listening to wisdom. Randy Starnes, Mike Most, Greg Creaser. these are the guys I call when I'm confused about concepts or need clarification, and this is my business! Greg makes a wicked barbecue as well." -- Lucas Wilson, ASSIMILATE, INC. "As more of us shoot our own footage, we are also required to become our own colorists. The Art and Technique of Color Correction will help you develop the skills you need to master this essential art. Steve demystifies the technical art of color correction by patiently distilling the wisdom of eight professional colorists down to a skill set any dedicated editor or motion graphics artist can learn. Those new to the field will particularly appreciate how he introduces all of the technical and slang terms required while still speaking plain English." -- Chris Meyer, Founding Partner, CyberMotion; author- Creating Motion Graphics with After Effects, currently in its 4th Edition, After Effects Apprentice "Steve Hullfish has written another down-to-earth analysis of digital color correction for video. It's great for editors who are tackling their first color grading job as well as those who do it every day, but want a deeper understanding of how to turn color correction into color enhancement. Not only does Steve give simple and clear explanations of the technical aspects, but he walks the reader through the steps that leading colorists use to apply their own artistic touch. And best of all, readers can try these approaches for themselves, using the very same sample clips. He goes past the 'how-to' so you also understand the 'why'. This book is a must-have for anyone involved in color correction for video." -- Oliver Peters, President and Founder, Oliver Peters Post Production Services, LLC

For this delicate outdoor bridal portraits we were inspired by this dress from Rembo Styling! Our fashion stylist, Diana, chose organic jewelry that worked perfectly with the simple yet stylish design of the dress! For florals we also wanted something very light with a touch of romance, so I did a all white and green bridal bouquet with roses, tulips, carnations, antirrhinum and some greens. Alexandre did a hairdo that enhanced the vintage hairpiece that was an unexpected element that added an extra elegance to the entire outfit!
