I love this guy's fire but he needs to get control of his actions. I still think (many disagree with me) that he can be a player. He's athletic, runs well and can block shots as well as anyone. If he develops any kind of offensive game at all, he will be an integral part of the rotation and maybe the starter.Hide replies
He has some pluses [John], an upside if you will. But he has yet to develop the consistency he needs to be called "a player". Maybe this is the year he can figure it all out. Lets hope so.
none of our bigs are good for 30 minutes or more
i think Dalemburt will get most of the starts
(gotta showcase him before the trade deadline)
but he cant play heavy minutes
Sanders and Udoh will get their chances at the PF and C spots
lets hope Ersan can get 30minutes per game, and is productive
Man, he better come ready to run every night, cuz Ellis and Jennings can't do it themselves all the time. If only they had more guys like him stead of all dem sfiffs.Hide replies
Nor should Ellis and Jennings try. Neither can carry a team.
Ellis & Jennings shot a combined 4 for 28 a few nights ago. We need someone to emerge as a guy who can play in the paint.
That is VERY evident based on their shooting %'s.
And it would sure be nice to see the other teams guards not torching the Bucks from outside.
"Sanders hinted Thursday that he was disciplined due to a dispute with a teammate last week......"
Initial reports (and we use the word very loosely around here) was the suspension was due to his behavior relative to on floor reactons in the Cats game. Both his impulse issues with the opponent himself, then, the "run silent run deep" atttempt to capture one of the Cats at which point, considering how amped up this guy was,
would have been sheer folly IF he had actually caught one of those pesky Cats.
Oh, and he was trying....This wasn't one of those 'I look like I want to battle, but really, hold me back...please>).....And, didn't he have contact, albeit incidental with a ref)?
HIs issue with his teamate, thus causing a one game suspension, gives me pause.
I'd almost wish it was the on floor stuff. God knows we'll never learn the scenerio, and yet, in this case...perhaps best. Still, there's that little voice whose alter-ego sits daily on the VIEW, who simply has to know!!?
*****Hide replies
As 'Thunder from Down Under' has said: paraphrased loosely : "If there's not any fighting between teammates in practice going on........there's something wrong" i.e. a lack of fire and desire?
The Coach of this ball club knows a thing or two about what is exceptable behavior off flloor / in practice / during games. My sense is a young Scott Skiles didn't take too much stuff from anyone, and thus knew first hand 'whats up that'. I would think....just out here on a limb....that for a player to not only be suspended...but...quarentined from the team for a game must have really pushed the outer markers of team behavior.
Your right, practice is known for tension. Ask those that shared some wood with #23 what practice should look like. Most of it controlled and policed By-the-Players. When staff as too intervene, as a player, ya know some sh*t just went down.
Also, the narrative was meant too address the ongoing vacuum created by the 'no news approach' which leads to assumption/speculation when issues/scenerios such as these occurr. All the ramblings about this as nothing was reported as to why the suspension? Same old same old>
Fire and brimstone. Scared go to church.
It never crossed my mind that the dispute was with a teammate. I assumed it was his tusslin attitude on the floor.
We probably never will know but as the man said it's done, resolved, and time to move on.
Let's get out of tonight healthy, confident and get to the games that count.
One More pre-season game, and we can put a bow on this experience. Jes.
The last week has been exhausting. Still alot of questions, and they will not
be answered until sometime in the season. And, therein lies part of the challenge.
Anyone and everyone who follows this group INSISTS that a healthy beginning is absolutely paramount. We concurr. My worst fear, presently ongoing, is pressing too much. Forcing the game. Forgetting to breath. Guys are tight ya'll>

Regis Laconi wants to return to racing and his testing during the World Ducati Week at Misano wasn't just a courtesy ride by DFX Corse, but a full blown personal fitness test for the French rider.
During the Monza round, Laconi had announced that he couldn't risk returning to racing because of the vertebrae fractures he suffered during last year's Kayalami round, but after testing at Misano he changed his mind and in this interview with French website moto.cardisiaz.com explains why.
"I'm not gonna lie, yes, I want to race again. At Misano, during the WDW there was a huge crowd and it made me warm inside that I was the second rider after Troy Bayliss to have been the most applauded by the public. Then on short notice, I got to ride DFX's bike and I could feel the bike, I had a good feeling."
"When I turned in Portimao this winter, I wasn't in good shape, I really didn't know why, but then I had laser surgery on my right eye and it seemed that I found myself, I felt much better and my feeling with the bike returned. Furthermore, I've always maintained my fitness."
"We'll see if DFX can find a solution in bringing a second bike for Misano, because I don't want to replace Lanzi, but we're going to have a meeting. I don't intend to finish the season nor am I looking too far in the future, at the moment we'll be discussing and see what happens after Misano."

College Hockey:Black Knights Out-Joust Falcons
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Rival branches of the military faced off Friday night for honor, for glory, and — truth be told — for bragging rights.
Supporters of both Air Force and Army turned out in droves, filling the 2,650-seat Cadet Ice Arena with a sellout crowd of 3,093 — the largest home crowd since a 1991 contest against Colorado College — as Army topped Air Force 5-2.
The crowd certainly got its money's worth. The first period was packed with excitement, including a full-out line brawl and a stunning shorthanded goal.
At 14:02, four Falcons and three Black Knights — all suffering varying degrees of punishment — were packed into the penalty boxes like sardines after a nasty five minutes of fighting. Army was on the penalty kill due to an extra double minor, but the Black Knights stepped up to the challenge.
After a scuffle in front of the Air Force net, senior center Mike Fairman, with help from linemate Garrett Brougham, backhanded the puck past Falcon goaltender Marc Kielkucki for the shorthanded lamplighter.
Early in the period, the Falcons took advantage of a power-play opportunity to even the score. Junior forward Brian Gornick took the feed from sophomores Andy Berg and Scott Zwiers and fired the puck from the point high over Army netminder Scott Hamilton's left shoulder to make the score 1-1.
As the period wound down, a Colorado Springs native making his collegiate debut put aside geographic loyalty to put Army ahead, 2-1. At the 17:16 mark, freshman winger Patrick Topping caught a bounce from sophomore Derek Hines and flipped the puck off the backhand into the net for his first career goal.
Just :31 later, though, Air Force tied it up again. Andy Berg picked off a pass in front of his own goal and charged all the way into the Army zone. Berg took his time on the release and popped up Hamilton's water bottle for the Falcons' second goal.
The drama continued well into the third stanza. At 7:06, the Black Knights, on the power play, pulled ahead once again. Wingers Garrett Brougham and Nic Serre got the puck over to their center, Mike Fairman, who snapped it high over Kielkucki's right shoulder for his second goal of the night and the 3-2 lead.
The Black Knights pulled farther ahead at the 11:09 mark when senior K.C. Finnegan picked off the rebound from Derek Hines' shot to widen the gap to 4-2.
Air Force eventually pulled Kielkucki for the extra man, but the Army defense stonewalled any scoring attempts and sent the puck back into the Air Force zone, where junior Black Knight Nathan Mayfield sent it into the empty net. Junior winger Tim Fisher assisted on the final goal for the 5-2 victory.
"Most of our games against these guys have come down to the wire, and we've usually gotten the short end of it," said Army head coach Rob Riley.
Not so Friday, as the Black Knight squad snapped an eight-game Air Force unbeaten streak, the longest for either team in the 30-game history of the series.
"We had to kill a lot of penalties in the second period, and we came out alive," said Riley. "We came into the third tied and made it a 20-minute hockey game, which is what we wanted all along."
In fact, there were 28 total penalties dished out during the game for a total of 64 minutes served by the two teams. That's more time spent in the box than out on the ice for a 60-minute hockey game.
However, both teams played a strong penalty kill, with Army giving up just one power-play goal in five attempts and Air Force going seven-for-eight on the kill.
The Falcons will have a chance to regain their honor when the teams square off again Saturday night at 7:05 p.m. local time.
"It's Senior Weekend and the last home game for the Air Force squad," said Riley. "It's going to be a very emotional game for them and we have to be ready for that."

Lizard Head Additions and Corrections
[ Post an Addition or Correction ]
|rap' anchor work
Voted 4/10
|Not sure if there are other options, but the rap' anchor we used (it puts you ~30' to the R of the standard route P3 start) totally sucked- it held for us to get down, but 2 attempts to pull our ropes were fruitless- I ended up prusiking back up to the anchor TWICE to try to free the lines, but each time, it was still totally impossible to pull them. We ended up leaving a rope left by an earlier party that I'd hoped to return to its owner, & just doing a single-rope rap' off of it (because it was impossible to free our own ropes). Extending the anchor over a prominent edge just below it with some additional chains/quick links, & using a dedicated rap' ring (instead of threading the ropes through 2 chain links would quite possibly do the trick). If a future ascent party familiar with anchor set-up could bring some additional hardware & do some modification, that would be a great community service.

|History of the climb
Voted 6/10
|Lizard Head has an intriguing climbing history. At the time of its first ascent in 1920 by Albert Ellingwood and Barton Hoag, Lizard Head was probably the hardest rock climb then completed in the United States. Armed with three soft iron pitons, hemp rope, and nailed boots, Ellingwood and Hoag made a couple of abortive attempts on cracks near the SW corner before rounding the corner to the west face. Ellingwood reported that "most of the enticing small holds crumbled at the touch, and large masses of the loosely compacted pebbles would topple dangerously at a slight pull." In spite of the difficulties, they struggled up and placed two of their rustic pitons in the lower cliff, saving one for the higher cliffs.
After spending about a half hour on top of the summit, Ellingwood and Hoag began an epic descent. Ellingwood's rope became stuck on the lower cliff. As he shook it, a rock cam loose and hit him on the top of the head, almost knocking him from the wall. Hoag was also hit by rockfall but was on secure footing at the time. After more effort, they had to abandon the rope and begin down climbing. Ellingwood reported that Hoag "slipped and, leaving a section of this paint behind, drifted relentlessly downward until the wall became vertical and then jumped (perhaps 15 feet) to the rock below. I followed with more caution, regretfully saying goodbye to my rope that had served me well for five good seasons."
Elingwood and Hoag's climb was well ahead of its time. This is reflected in the comments of Harold G. WIlm who made the second ascent on June 9, 1929 with Dobson West. Referring to Elingwood, Wilm noted: At the time, it was considered an impossible feat, and little credence was given his performance by many who knew the peak. For some time, therefore, Dobson West and I had planned a second ascent, chiefly as a proof of his climb, but also as a mountaineering stunt of our own."
Wilm and West did in fact confirm the first ascent by retrieving Ellingwood's old rope and finding his old rusty pitons still in place. Several more ascents of Lizard Head were made during the 1931 joint outing by members of the Colorado and Appalachian Mountain Clubs. SInce the early efforts, interest in Lizard Head waned. The horror stories have taken their toll.
The first winter ascent of Lizard Head was made on January 18, 1970, by a strong party from Colorado Springs which consisted of Art Howells, Mike Dudley, Don Doucette, Chuck Behrensmeyer, R.J. Campbell, and Fletcher Smith. Although the first 100 feet of the climb had snow on all the hold, they made excellent time and got on and off the summit cone in about four h

FINISHING TOUCHES—With the exterior and interior of the Centre Heldman Plaza SHOP 'n SAVE nearly ready, the Hill House EDC has scheduled an Oct. 19 Community Celebration for the opening. (Courier Photos/J.L. Martello)
There is no signage, the grounds are still not landscaped, the four retail spaces facing Centre Avenue are only cinder-block caverns with dirt floors, and the entire complex is still operating on temporary electrical power.
But though the "soft opening" envisioned for next week will not happen, the actual SHOP 'n SAVE grocery building that will anchor the Centre Heldman Plaza project is well on its way to opening next month.
"It's looking good for the end of the month," said Massaro Corporation Superintendent Chris Lane, who allowed the Courier to walk through the building Sept. 4. "I think it's looking great and this neighborhood needs this in the worst way. I wish these people all the best."
With its six skylights and additional light tubes, which use mirrors and a reflective coating to reflect sunlight down into the cavernous 23,000 square-foot building, the store hopes to save a substantial amount on lighting costs.
As for the interior of the store, coolers for produce, meat and poultry were being installed along the perimeter, while those that will define the aisles await the installation of finished flooring. The checkout counters will also be assembled and placed after the floor is in.
Exhaust fans and white ceramic tile have been installed at the hot foods counters, as has the ceramic flooring in the entranceway and the rest rooms. The large walk-in freezers, one immediately off the loading dock others further down a read hall, are insulated and connected to refrigeration units.
As for the four storefront spaces facing Centre Avenue, Lane said work on them had been stalled because of a plumbing issue that had to be rectified before the concrete floors could be poured. There is no such problem with the grocery space, he said.
"We can really get going once Duquesne Light connects to the transformer and the city electrical inspector signs off," he said.
The other good news is that five businesses have signed on to lease open space in the plaza. Hill House Economic Development Corporation President and CEO Cheryl Hall-Russell announced Sept. 4 that Dollar Bank, Crazy Mocha, Cricket Communications, Nationwide Insurance and Subway have all committed to the project.
"Dollar Bank will actually be inside the grocery, and the other businesses will occupy the spaces along Centre Avenue," she said. "As for the opening, we're now planning to have a gala opening, with a community day on Oct. 19. The community has waited for this so long, we just wanted to celebrate with them."
Additionally, the Hill Federal Credit Union, Bridgeway Capital, Urban Innovation21 and Neighborworks are jointly working to help small local businesses capitalize on the Centre Heldman development also.
"We want the businesses that pop up along the Centre Avenue corridor to be home grown," said credit union President Richard Witherspoon. "We are focusing on improving the owners' personal credit so their businesses can get better access to capital."
Witherspoon said the four-week course has 19 small-business owners enrolled. Upon completion, all can apply for lines of credit through the HDFCU and grants available through Bridgeway and Urban Innovations21.
"The idea is to keep capital revolving through the community," said Witherspoon. "Businesses have accounts with us, they hire employees who open accounts, we lend that money back out to spur more growth in and for the Hill District."

Neiman Marcus customers are now in the same boat as Target customers. Though it isn't quite on the scale of Target's information beach, The New York Times reports on Jan. 23 that 1.1 million credit and debit cards were involved in a breach that took place over a period from July to October 2013.
The breach was first acknowledged by the company a couple weeks ago and it was officially addressed in a statement this week. The statement attributes the breach to a "malicious software" that was "clandestinely" installed on Neiman Marcus' system. NYT's report states that the malware appears to be the same kind that was also used in Target stores. However, that does not necessarily mean that the same people are behind both attacks. The group suspected in the Target hacks is based out of Eastern Europe.
Though over a million cards have the potential to have been accessed, credit card companies have reported that only 2,400 have been used fraudulently. The company will notify everyone who shopped at both Neiman Marcus and its outlet stores during those months. Like Target, they will extend customers free credit monitoring for year.
Neiman Marcus will work with federal agencies to review their security and payment card information systems.

New Orleans coach Byron Scott constantly preaches teamwork and selfless play, but he has no problem with the spotlight shining on his best player.It helps, though, that his top talent is All-Star point guard Chris Paul, who is one of the classiest and most electric athletes in the sport.
"I might be a little bit biased, but I don't think there is a better point guard in the league," said Scott, who played 14 years in the NBA. "He deserves all the attention and accolades he gets.
"No question about it, Chris is our leader and our most vocal player. I want people to watch how he plays the game because he does it the right way."
Unfortunately for Paul, his lone 2008-09 visit to Quicken Loans Arena was memorable for all the wrong reasons as the Cavaliers beat the Hornets 92-78 on Friday night.
The soft-spoken Wake Forest product played with an edge all evening against waves of Cleveland defenders – including close friend LeBron James – eventually resulting in his ejection with 1:10 remaining.
"We wanted to take him out of the game as much as possible tonight," Cavaliers guard Mo Williams said. "The whole team did a good job doing that."
Paul did collect 18 points, seven rebounds and six assists, but was held without a steal, received two technical fouls and made three turnovers in 40 largely uneventful minutes. He didn't debate his first "T", which came just after the halftime buzzer, but calmly disagreed with his ejection.
"I was talking with one of (James' buddies in the stands) and he asked me what my foul was called for," said Paul, whose on-court conversation was overheard by lead official Steve Javie. "I said, "I don't know," and I got tossed. Isn't that a trip? I'm not lying."
While the Cavaliers' suffocating, bump-everything-that-moves pressure kept Paul literally off-balance, it also took the luster off what could have been a fun duel between "CP3" and fellow All-NBA first-teamer James.
No doubt, ESPN was equally unhappy that the Hornets adopted the same physical style against Cleveland's franchise player, turning the nationally televised contest into a scrum for the first three quarters.
James picked up his scoring pace in the fourth to finish with 29 points, 14 rebounds, seven assists, three steals and one block, but those numbers look a whole lot more exciting than they played out on the hardwood.
"I think it's great for the game when LeBron and Chris are out there because they are two great guys off the court," Scott said. "They are the type of guys you want the league to focus on. I have no problem with it at all."
Not only are James and Paul two of the top three players in the NBA (along with Lakers guard Kobe Bryant), they have become great friends. James, in fact, says going head-to-head with him is like "playing against your brother."
Each traveled to the other's charity event in the offseason – Paul's bowling tournament in Winston Salem, N.C. and James' bicycle event in Akron – and played on the gold medal-winning U.S. Olympic basketball team in Beijing.
James, in fact, was still gloating about his pro-am bowling tournament win over Paul prior to their showdown Friday.
"He's got his own ball, bag, wristwrap and he bowls for times a week," he joked. "He's supposed to be the best? Poor little guy."
Both superstars also raised money for their civic endeavors and made more friends during their summer tour, all while working on their hoops skills.
Considering how good James and Paul already are – and where the Cavaliers and Hornets are sitting in their respective conference standings – it wouldn't be a surprise to see them meet again in the NBA Finals this June.
The league should be so lucky.
"I got to spent some time with LeBron at Chris' thing over the summer and found out he is truly a great person," Scott said. "Both of those guys truly care about the game of basketball. You could see how much they matured from the Olympic experience, and they were already mature beyond their years.
"It's kind of scary to think about how much better they're going to become."

Anthropology as a discipline is rapidly becoming more quantitative, and anthropology students are now required to develop sophisticated statistical skills. This book provides students of anthropology with a clear, step-by-step guide to univariate statistical methods, demystifying the aspects that are often seen as difficult or impenetrable. Explaining the central role of statistical methods in anthropology and using only anthropological examples, the book provides a solid footing in statistical techniques. Beginning with basic descriptive statistics, this new edition also covers more advanced methods such as analyses of frequencies and variance, simple and multiple regression analysis with dummy and continuous variables. It addresses commonly encountered problems such as small samples and non-normality. Each statistical technique is accompanied by clearly worked examples and the chapters end with practice problem sets. Many of the datasets are available for download at www.cambridge.org/9780521147088.

Eminent scientist Stephen Hawking has expressed concerns that extraterrestrial life may not be what we assume. Aliens may be dangerous rather than charitable and giving, he asserts in an upcoming Discovery Chanel special. If nothing else, cultures advanced enough to reach Earth may have an effect similar to the discovery by Europeans of the Americas: devastating to the so discovered.
Other scientists disagree: many believe a sophisticated alien race reaching our world could only be good.
Truth be told, we really don't know what to expect. Who's to say aliens would be bad? Or good? It's all simply presumption. That said, the only honest appraisal of contact with any given extraterrestrial life form would be the same as with meeting any given stranger on Earth: approach with caution, olive branch extended yet with the proper amount of reserve to counter their actions and intentions if need be.
Our science fiction has had a great propensity to view potential alien life as superior to ours in almost every way. It is good to see a prominent scientist point out that that may not be the case.
In the end it may all be conjecture. Presuming that other lives on other planets would face the same daunting tasks of physics as we do, interstellar travel itself may be little more than science fiction. The folks at SETI, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, seem to think that the best we can hope for is hearing them through radio transmissions. That sounds like the most reasonable prediction on the matter.
In short, the possibility of sentient life other than us in the universe is fun to discuss but nothing is likely to come of it. Still, it is good that Professor Hawking has sought to balance the scales. There's no good assuming that technical superiority means morally advancement.

Even though it's h-o-t, HOT outside right now, you need to start thinking about your fall & winter wardrobes. Yes, really! Especially since the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is going on right now, with next seasons' hottest styles on sale through August 1st.
Today, we're going to take on two of this fall's hottest fashion trends, Yves Klein Blue and Graphic Stripes.
Yves Klein Blue: The signature shade of blue favored by post-WWII artis Yves Klein showed up everywhere from Derek Lam to Thakoon. Luckily, this saturated cobalt hue looks great on TONS of gals. In warmer weather, pair this Julie Dillon Drape Skirt Belted Dress ($118.90 on sale) with these airy Vince Camuto 'Zisson' Sandals ($90 on sale) and a couple of Alexis Bittar Skinny Bangles ($46.90 each on sale) for a work-appropriate outfit that you can easily wear out for a date after work. When the weather turns cooler, swap it for Joan & David 'Flipp' Pumps in black ($129.90 on sale), SPANX 'Love Leg' Tights, ($27.90 on sale) and a Trouvé Shrunken Blazer ($89.90 on sale). All of these pieces can be paired with tons of other items in your closet, too, making them worthwhile investments.
Graphic Stripes: Ponchos are also "in" for Fall & Winter, too, so this graphic-striped Research & Design Poncho Top ($38.90 on sale) kills two trend birds with one stone. Balance the blousy top with structured Hudson Jeans 'Collin' Skinny Stretch Jeans ($109.90 on sale) and add comfortable Born 'Liddy' Flats ($59.90 on sale) while the weather's still a little warmer. When there's a nip in the air, swap in these Cole Haan 'Air Whitley' Buckle Strap Boots ($229.90 on sale) and Vince Ponte Knit Riding Pants ($139 on sale) for an equestrian-inspired cozy look. We can't wait to wear this outfit on chilly fall afternoons!

MEDINA — The artwork of a dozen area high school students will appear on gasoline pumps, grocery store scales and all the other business devices certified by the county to ensure accuracy.
Medina County Auditor Mike Kovack sponsored the countywide contest to design the seals used by his Weights and Measures Department to verify that a measuring device has been tested and found accurate.
"The top 12 students' seals will be printed and affixed to each measuring device in the county to indicate that it is accurate," Kovack said. "If you fill up your car or buy groceries at the store, you will see a seal on the pump or the register.
"Those seals were designed by students from our county. We honor them by using their designs for the entire year."
The winning seals for the Inspected and Sealed Category are by Elizabeth Kruggel and Emily Rozsahegyi, Cloverleaf High School; Cody Thoma and Montana Pawlak, Wadsworth High School; and Austin Dearth and David Mason, Medina County Career Center.
The winning seals for the Passed Price Verification Category are by Jeremy Schroeder, Olivia Addis, Cameron Baier and Michaela Blom, Wadsworth High School; and Jonah Madzay and Jeannette Wagner, Career Center.
The top winner in each category will receive a $100 U.S. savings bond at a March 11 ceremony at the Career Center.

Former New Jersey Gov. James McGreevey—who famously announced he was
"a gay American" when he resigned in 2004—will not be ordained into the
Episcopal Church priesthood in the near future.
TRENTON, N.J. (RNS) The New Jersey Transit employee fired for burning
pages of the Quran at the site of a proposed Islamic center near Ground
Zero will get his job back.
TRENTON, N.J. (RNS) On the ninth anniversary of the 9/11 terror
attacks, Derek Fenton stole headlines by burning pages from the Quran in
lower Manhattan to protest a planned Islamic community center there. Two
days later, he lost his job at New Jersey Transit for breaching the
agency's code of ethics.

Now that we've got our sandals, we have our eyes on several pairs of Swedish Hasbeens boots. Sarah Jessica Parker has been seen wearing them, and you can't argue with SJP when it comes to shoes, now can you? We think we've finally narrowed our choices down to the High Heeled Jodhpur ($326). Handmade to last a lifetime and eco-friendly to make the planet last its lifetime, Hasbeens are shoes you can feel good about. They're worth the investment, and timelessly stylish. Just don't ask us which color we're going with; we can't decide!

Over the last couple years there has been some courageous athletes who have came out as gay. They have changed perception and through their bravery, they have helped changed minds. On Monday, YouTube, along with parent company Google, launched their 2014 Gay Pride campaign #ProudToPlay in honor of these athletes who are continuing to make a different.
In a YouTube video released by the campaign, athletes like Jason Collins, Michael Sam, Robbie Rogers and Tom Daley amongst other notable gay athletes are shown demonstrating their strength during their coming out moments. The campaigns focus is to encourage YouTubers to join the conversation by uploading videos about LGBT sports issues, which will be highlighted by YouTube over the next month. The videos will be featured on the YouTube Spotlight Channel.
By making sports the focus of the company's Gay Pride efforts, YouTube is making a statement on how important LGBT sports issues are in mainstream culture. The importance was recently highlighted when Sam became the first openly gay player drafted by an NFL team just a couple of months after Jason Collins became the first active openly gay player to play in an NBA game. The breaking down of these barriers has helped change minds and has continued efforts towards acceptance.
YouTube Marketing manager Raymond Braun emphasized the importance of sports in a statement he released regarding the campaign. He said "Sports bring together people from all background and experiences through a shared passion, and YouTube shares that spirit of connecting diverse communities to make a difference."
From the Sochi Olympics to the upcoming World Cup in Brazil, sports have become an outlet where people of all background can find connections and common goals. As the late Nelson Mandela says at the start of the video, "Sport has the power to change the world."

Tired of never being able to slip off your shoes and kick up your heels because every time you do your friends and coworkers mysteriously disappear? The reason may be right beneath your nose. Stinky, rotten, smelly feet may be turning them off. Put an end to stinky foot odor once and for all with these natural remedies.
Tea. Brew two tea bags in one quart of warm water and soak your feet for ten minutes every night for a week. The tannic acid in the tea helps to prevent the feet from sweating and causing odor. If symptoms return, simply soak your feet in tea for a few days. Once the problem is under control, soaking your feet once week will keep the odor at bay.
Zinc. Make sure you are getting plenty of zinc. One of the symptoms of a zinc deficiency is foot odor. Taking 50 mgs of zinc a day, for 2 weeks, will cure any foot odor if the odor is caused by a zinc deficiency.
Apple Cider. Soak your feet several times a week with natural apple cider. Remember to dry your feet thoroughly after soaking.
Jell-O. Soak your feet in lemon or lime Jell-O. Mix Jell-O with hot water. Add cold water to get a nice warm footbath. Soak your feet in Jell-O until the Jell-O begins to "set". Wash your feet with warm soapy water and rinse. Dry thoroughly.
Vodka. Myth Busters tested the use of Vodka in a foot bath to remove foot odors. They confirmed that vodka does work to eliminate foot odors.
Bleach. Pour ¼ cup of common household bleach in a foot bath with warm water. Soak your feet for ½ hour. Rinse and dry your feet thoroughly.
Vinegar. Pour ½ cup white vinegar into a warm foot bath. Soak your feet for ½ hour. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Listerine. Saturate a cotton ball with Listerine. Apply it to your feet. Do not forget to get between the toes. Dry thoroughly.
Rubbing Alcohol. Apply to feet with clean cotton balls after a shower. Dry thoroughly.
Alum. Wash your feet with warm sudsy water. Dry them thoroughly. Dust your feet with powdered alum.
Stinky foot odor is generally caused by the growth of bacteria on sweaty feet or in sweaty shoes. Keeping your feet clean and dry and making sure your shoes have thoroughly dried will go a long way towards preventing foot odor.
Feet should be washed with warm soapy water everyday and dried thoroughly. Try wearing cotton socks that will absorb moisture when your feet sweat. Wear comfortable shoes that allow your feet to breath.
If your shoes retain the odor, try sprinkling them with baking soda and allowing them to dry completely. If possible, do not wear the same shoes each day.

[FIN]Star Wars: The Way of Bendak Starkiller
Please post replies here
Star Wars: The Way of Bendak Starkiller
The crowd was the first thing Bendak heard as he stepped out onto the arena. He had heard it many times during the past few months. He had made a living off these death fights for Ajuur. His payment was good as long as there were many bets. He looked at his opponent now completely focused.
On this side, we have the great Magic with hot blood running through his veins and a blaster so hot you turn onto flames. And on the other of the Arena we have the great champion Bendak Starkiller.
Bendak grinned as he grabbed his blaster, the man still had bad introductions. He fired toward his opponent and jumped to the side a second later as the shot flew back toward him. Shocked his body slammed into the ground as the shot flew over him. He looked up to see Magic holding a blood red lightsaber.
Sith slime. He muttered as he got up.
He removed his virosword, it would hold against a lightsaber for a little while. He swung the blade toward the women only to for it to be blocked by the saber. He moved in for a critical attack. But Magic attacked in a long flurry. Bendak threw the virosword at the women and grabbed his heavy blasters. Clapping erupted from the crowd as Bendak suddenly was raised from the ground and hurled toward the wall. Magic ran toward him prepared to kill him. Bendak activated the deadly flamethrower on his arm armor. The fire hit Magic catching her cloak on fire. The fire crept up her skin; she screamed and yelled in pain as the fire burned her. Suddenly a blaster shot emerged from the crowd and hit the sith women in the chest. Blood ran from the wound as the blaster shot tore through her skin. A sith officer ran down to the arena and stepped out. A squad of sith troopers followed.
From this day on. The officer started. All death matches are now illegal except for proper promotion from the great Malak himself.
Udder disbelief struck the crowd. Then the protests started, everyone for the death matches started yelling at the troopers. The troopers didnt care about the people they shot all who were advancing. Bendak turned and left the arena and would not return for a long time.
Bendak walked toward Ajuur the Hutt, ready to speak to the great Hutt.
Ah, Bendak you did well on the last of these death fights. 10% of the bets, as always.
Ajuur, Im retiring I dont wont to use stun blasters and stuff. Im not cut out for it.
What. The Hutt said angrily. I had a special battle planned, you Vs. Twitch.
Sorry, old buddy Im done.
With that he walked out of the cantina planning to fight some death matches for Zax down in the lower city of Tairs.

Redshirt senior Tyler Mapes tied a career-high in strikeouts with eight in a career-high 8.0 innings
March 28, 2014
CHARLESTON, W. Va. - Despite leading through a majority of the game, Tulane dropped the first game of the series to Marshall, 3-2, on a two-out, two-run walk-off single in the bottom of the ninth at Appalachian Power Park on Friday night in Charleston, W. Va.
Tulane (13-12, 5-5) held a 2-1 lead from the fifth inning on, but sophomore reliever Dan Rankin entered the game in the bottom of the ninth after a stellar start by redshirt senior Tyler Mapes. Rankin (0-1) immediately benefited by a stellar defense play by freshman shortstop Stephen Alemais on a slow roller to short stop, one of a few noteworthy plays made by the rookie on the day. However, Rankin allowed a single to Marshall's (7-16, 4-6) Andrew Dundon with one out to before dealing a four-pitch walk to Chase Vogelbach to put the go-ahead run on the basepaths.
Marshall pinch-hitter Aaron Bossi hit a chopper to Alemais at shortstop, but the wet dirt caused by the rain that fell through most of the game made Alemais slip, loading the bases. Freshman righty J.P. France came to the mound and struck out Marshall's Matt Reed for the second out on three-straight breaking balls. But a hard hit single by Eric Escobedo right up the middle scored Dundon and Vogelbach to give Marshall the victory.
Mapes gave the Green Wave another outstanding outing on the mound, pitching a career-high 8.0 innings and tying a career-high with eight strikeouts. Mapes did not allow a single walk and he gave up just five hits and one run.
"Tyler pitched his tail off and deserved to win this ball game," said Tulane associate head coach Chad Sutter. "He went out there and was aggressive and pounded the zone. He did everything we asked him to do. When you pitch 8.0 innings and give up just one run, that's a game you feel like you should win."
The Green Wave struggled a bit at the dish, stranding 17 runners for the first time since a game at Southeastern Louisiana on March 27, 2012. Many of those runners were on base after getting walked, as the Marshall pitching staff served up nine free bases to the Tulane batters, a season high for Tulane. Even with the runners left on, Tulane led the contest from the top of the third until the final at bat of the game.
In the top of the third, sophomore outfielder Richard Carthon and Alemais secured back-to-back singles to lead off the frame. Freshman Hunter Hope hit a sharp grounder right back to the pitcher, but Marshall's Michael Taylor, who got the start on the day, tried to catch Carthon napping at third. Instead, a lengthy rundown ensued, and with Carthon making a break for home after jumping back and forth, a throw to home by the Thundering Herd's third baseman hit Carthon in the back, allowing him to reach home for Tulane's first run of the game, while putting Alemais at third and Hope at second. Senior outfielder Andrew Garner then knocked Alemais in on a sacrifice fly to give Tulane an early 2-0 lead.
Mapes was on fire through the first portion of the game. The Plano, Texas, native did not give up his first hit of the tilt until allowing a single into center field to Sergio Leon, who came home to score on a double down the left field line by Vogelbach to cut Tulane's lead to just one.
The Green Wave had golden opportunities in the top of the fifth and the sixth to add to their lead, but Marshall managed to get out of both predicaments. Taylor was able to get the Green Wave to leave the bases loaded in the bottom of the fifth, despite two runners reaching scoring position with no outs. In the top of the sixth, Taylor walked Alemais before junior first baseman Garrett Deschamp singled up the middle before Taylor was pulled in favor of Clint Wilson. Hope walked to load the bags for the second consecutive inning for the Green Wave. But for the second consecutive inning, the bases were left loaded after Wilson struck out Garner to end the threat.
Fortunately for the Green Wave, Mapes continued to look sharp. Mapes allowed a one-out single to Leon in the bottom of the sixth after retiring them in order in the fifth, but Leon was left stranded after Mapes got two flyouts, including one in foul territory, to keep Marshall from scoring. Mapes allowed a single in the bottom of the seventh to Marshall's T.J. Diffenderfer, but retired the next six batters in order before leaving the mound for the final time in the bottom of the eighth.
The run scored by Marshall in the bottom of the fourth was the first run allowed by Mapes since the righty gave up two runs in the bottom of the fourth when the Green Wave faced Cal on March 7 in Berkeley, Calif. Mapes pitched 7.0 innings of shutout ball against ECU on March 14. Following that contest, Mapes fanned eight and allowed no runs in 7.0 innings against Middle Tennessee last Friday.
The Green Wave got multi-hit games from Deschamp and Hope, who went 2-for-3 and 2-for-4, respectively. Junior John Gandolfo, who played his freshman year for the Thundering Herd two seasons ago, got the start in centerfield on the day. It was Gandolfo's seventh start on the year.
Taylor walked six batters in 5.2 innings in the no decision. Marshall reliever Sam Hunter was credited with the win, after pitching 0.1 innings with one strikeout. Hunter (1-0) picked up his first win on the season.
The game got underway 45 minutes after the original scheduled first pitch because of an extra-inning contest against Big 12 opponents West Virginia and Baylor that was played at Appalachian Power Park prior to Tulane's contest.
Tulane and Marshall will return to action on Saturday morning at 9am CT. The game time has changed twice since the Green Wave arrived in Charleston, as the two programs have been working to get the tilt in around severe weather issues that could potentially threaten the area. The game will be broadcast on the home of Tulane baseball for the 2014 season, 88.3 FM WRBH.
Fans can follow the Tulane baseball program on Twitter (@GreenWaveBSB) or on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/GreenWaveBaseball.

Rudy Kizer is the host of "Hit the Decks," a weekly radio show broadcast sundays on X103. Every Sunday night, Rudy spins various electronic, drum & bass, trance and dance music over the local airwaves. The show is also available in the UK on the CreateRadio website, which is frequently inaccessible for some reason. Here's a super-cool interview I did with Mr. Kizer where he talks about the local DJ scene and how to get involved in the party.
You have a part of your show called the Drum 'n Bass Rinse, and I like that. Can you write a short laundry list of steps for a local Indianapolis kid to take in order to go from slack-jawed yokel to a real-life DJ like yourself? Please add the phrase, "rinse and repeat" to the end of the instructions, to keep up with the laundry theme.
Rudy Kizer says: I'm no genius at this stuff, and a lot of it was "right-place-right-time" and luck, but these are the things that I think helped, at a bare minimum, start my DJ career.
1. Commit to doing it - I've been babying the radio show project for the better part of twenty five years, which leads to...
2. Don't give up - stay true to your own vision.
3. Have a plan - focus on reaching the goals you set in that plan.
4. Listen to a LOT of music - even genres that you don't play.
5. Practice practice practice - there are a lot of DJs out there who don't take the craft and skills (beat-matching, blending, cutting/scratching) seriously. Master the basic skills. I learned to mix on absolute CRAP gear (Radio Shack mixer, belt-drive turntables), but that made the transition to the professional-level gear that much easier, and I sounded a lot more polished.
6. Play out as much as you can - not only is it fun, but you learn to perform under the pressure of "live in front of an audience" as well as read a dance floor to put together your sets on the fly.
7. Be your biggest fan and promote yourself. Your demo mix CD is like your business card, so get it out there and make it happen.
8. Network with other DJs and promoters, and don't burn bridges. Those you pass on the way up will be there on your way down.
9. Go see live shows - Djs, bands, whatever. You'll know good showmanship when you see it, and try to "borrow" the bits you like.
10. Lather, rinse, repeat.
You have said that dance music is "more than just hip-hop on the radio." What else is there going on deep within dance music that some people may miss the first time around?
Rudy Kizer says: Hip hop has had an amazing twenty five year run, but hip hop has entered the "corporate rock" phase of its existence, and listeners are starting to get bored. With commercial hip hop starting to stagnate, you hear the influence of underground dance music on pop radio more and more every day. Ne-Yo, Usher, Pitbull, Rihanna - the list goes on and on of artists that have tapped the underground to make their sound fresh again. Dubstep is a really hot trend right now, and you can connect the dots between drum and bass, dubstep, and southern hip hop without too much effort. So many dubstep artists are playing jam-band type festivals, they're getting a lot of great exposure and doing a great job of taking that sound to the masses. Hell, Rusko is producing tracks on the new Britney Spears album, if that gives you any indication. Pitbull has made a career off of re-purposing dance music classics (Bucketheads' "The Bomb," Nightcrawlers' "Push The Feeling On"). Lady GaGa may end up ruling the world if she starts working with more polished producers. I'm always amazed at the remix packages for the mainstream pop artists - working with the best dance music producers in the world and putting out music that's NOTHING like the original versions that get heavy-rotation air play.
My friends from New Jersey say they have ever seen the letters "DJ" and the word "Indianapolis" arranged closely in a communication form such as the written word. For the uninitiated, where do you go to get into the DJ scene here in Indianapolis?
Rudy Kizer says: Things were pretty sparse there for a while, but the dance music scene is starting to percolate a little bit. TRU Nightclub in Broad Ripple has done some quality events, the "Keepin' It Deep" events at BLU lounge downtown are always a good time. Juxtapoze at the Melody Inn on Tuesdays, and once-a-month parties like Let Go! party at the Lockerbie Pub and High Five at Locals Only are always good. The Mousetrap has a new broken beat and dubstep "Altered Thursdaze" party that promises to be a lot of fun. If you're into more of the open-format kind of sound, DJ Marcus at the Vogue has that on lock-down. So there's not only a lot going on, but something for every taste. That's really encouraging, and a testament to all the DJs and promoters who are driving the scene in Indy. The only disheartening thing is that there aren't many all-ages events where the under-21 crowd can experience a full-on underground dance event - that's one of the things I miss about the demise of the rave scene.
Where do you see the Indianapolis arts culture heading in general within the next five years?
Rudy Kizer says: We seem to be in a "up" cycle for edgier forms of art and entertainment, so hopefully that will sustain for a while. Underground music - be it rock, hip hop, dance music, or whatever - is starting to gain some steam in Indianapolis, and we are beginning to become a tour stop for up-and-coming music acts. The cats at MOKB have done a remarkable job of making Indianapolis visible to bands and acts that are out touring. Al in all, things look very bright and I'm excited to see where this all goes.
What's up with the podcast on HitTheDecks.net? I missed last week's show and I went to download the podcast and it isn't there.
Rudy Kizer says: I've had some clearance problems with some of the guest DJ sets because they're SO exclusive, and not permitted to be streamed. I'm getting to the back-log and weighing options for those shows. That being said, the shows with guest sets from Noisia and Elite Force will be posted soon.
Where are you spinning at next?
Rudy Kizer says: I'll be playing a couple of the Gen Con parties this weekend, and then my schedule is pretty open gig-wise. I'm proud - and a bit humbled, really - to have my show picked up by Armed Forces Networks recently. That should start in a couple of weeks. After that, I'll concentrate on broadcast radio syndication.
