Cheerleaders asked to leave FIBA World Championships
The welcome mat has been pulled from under the cheerleaders' jumping feet at the FIBA World Basketball Championships, where Team USA is dominating play.
At first, the Red Foxes, a cheerleading group from the Ukraine, were asked to cover up and cut down their shaking when the United States played Iran because of "cultural sensitivity" issues.
Now the host nation, Turkey, has ordered the Red Foxes out of the arena when its team plays. The objection stems from the fact Turkey is almost entirely Muslim, and the Islamic religion prohibits women from exposing their skin in public.
The Laker Girls, or any of the other NBA cheerleaders, better just stay home.

View All Available Formats & Editions
Imagine Maine lobsters and fresh blueberry pie savored outdoors on the same rockbound coast that inspired Homer and Hopper; a crusty loaf stuffed with melted cheeses, artichoke hearts and roasted peppers enjoyed in the sunny warmth of an island painted by Turner, or a colorful picnic of grilled lamb, wild rice salad with dried cranberries and a harvest tart of apples and apricots to match the painterly colors of an Ipswich autumn. The rich and varied New England landscape- with its island-dotted coast, forest-covered mountains and charming villages - inspires painters and picnickers alike to seek the perfect destination. Picnics of New England provides the reader with recipes and tips for eight memorable feasts.

The Queenstown Lakes District Council has indefinitely closed the Wanaka Community Pool after it failed to meet earthquakes standards.
The council announced last night that the pool, engineered by Anthony Stanely Major who was this week expelled from the Institute of Professional Engineers of New Zealand (IPENZ ), met only 20 per cent of earthquake standards under the building code.
District council chief executive Adam Feeley said in a statement that the pool met statutory requirements when it was built but "now fell significantly short of current standards".
"Our advice is that it could be at risk in the event of an unusually heavy snowfall, earthquake, or similar event."
Major, an Invercargill design engineer, designed and observed the construction of Stadium Southland, which collapsed in September 2010 after a snowstorm.
IPENZ this week announced it had expelled Major because he breached their code of ethics.
A spokesman for Major said this week that he was disappointed with the IPENZ disciplinary committee's decision and felt it was not a fair reflection of his culpability in this matter.
Feeley acknowledged Major's involvement in the construction of the pool but said it had already begun a structural assessment before his connection was noted.
The council would have a better idea of when the pool would be reopened once further work had been completed on upgrade options for the building, he said.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful
another truimph for Ms. Rice,
This review is from: The Witching Hour (Paperback)
I have always been a fan of Anne Rice so when I was told that this was a good read I said I would give it a go.
It is about a family of witches, The Mayfair Witches, and I never thought that I would never like it as much as the Vampire Chronicles but I was wrong!! It kept me engrossed from start to finish, the only bad thing I could say about this book is that even though I kept reading and reading I thought that I would never get to the end (its got over a thousand pages!) That being said I really did not want the end to come. I loved it so much that the day after I had finished it I went straight online and ordered the next 2 books in the series - Lasher and Taltos.
If you like Anne Rice then I can safely say that you will really enjoy this book, it is everything I expect from her!
Again it is a brilliant book if I could have given it more then 5 stars I would have!

Florida A&M University hires anti-hazing chief
Updated:TALLAHASSEE, Fla. —
Bryan F. Smith is returning to Florida A&M University, where he earned a master's degree, as the school's anti-hazing administrator.
Interim university President Larry Robinson said on Friday that Smith's job will be to ensure initiatives adopted following the hazing death of a band member will be implemented.
Drum major Robert Champion died in November 2011 after he was beaten aboard a band bus in Orlando.
Smith most recently was executive director and co-founder of Destined for Success Educational Services in Decatur, Ga.
He said his goal will be to change a hazing culture on the Tallahassee campus.
Smith has a law degree from John Marshall Law School, a master's in public management from Florida A&M and a bachelor's in political science from North Carolina A&T State University

The mother of Modern Family star Ariel Winter has temporarily lost custody of the actress amid claims she's been physically and emotionally abusive to the teenager, court records show.
The allegations are contained in a guardianship petition filed last month in Los Angeles by Winter's 34-year-old sister, Shanelle. A judge ordered the 14-year-old's mother, Chrisoula Workman, to stay away and have no contact with her daughter until a November 20 hearing. Winter's sister, also a TV actress, was appointed as a temporary guardian but does not have access to Winter's earnings, according to the judge's order.
Winter, who started acting in films and TV shows at age 7, currently plays Alex Dunphy on the hit ABC comedy.
Winter's mother was accused in the filings of "ongoing physical abuse" described as slapping and hitting, as well as name-calling and personal insults. Reached by phone, Workman said she was in the process of hiring an attorney.
An independent attorney has been appointed to oversee Winter's interests in the case.
Attorneys handling the guardianship had sought to transfer control of the young star's earnings from an account her mother can access to a blocked account. A judge did not grant that request, but it may be renewed at a later date.
Winter has appeared in several TV series, including ER and Phineas and Ferb, and movies such as Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Ice Age: The Meltdown and ParaNorman.
The filing was first reported by celebrity website TMZ.

Product Description
"A wry, melancholy, beautiful first novel." (Guardian)
"This is the most surreal slab of realism you will read all year. Unique and rather wonderful." (Arena)
"Sherrill is a beautiful writer . . . he finds the drama to keep you reading, your heart in your mouth, to the conclusion's defiant roar of hope." (Daily Telegraph)
"Exceptional . . .Steven Sherrill uses M as the vehicle for a finely observed and compassionate portrayal of humanity in all its guises." (Irish Independent)
"Sherrill's narrative, with its dreamlike pace, shows myth coexisting with reality as naturally as it does in ancient epic." (Publisher's Weekly) --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.
From the Inside Flap
Five thousand years out of the labyrinth, the Minotaur finds himself in the American South, living in a trailer park and working as a line cook at a steakhouse. No longer a devourer of human flesh, the Minotaur is a socially inept, lonely creature with very human needs. But over a two-week period, as his life dissolves into chaos, this broken and alienated immortal awakens to the possibility for happiness and to the capacity for love. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.See all Product Description

Five thousand years on from the myth, the Minotaur - now known as M to his colleagues - is alive and well and living in America. He has a job as a chef in a busy, fairly up-market restaurant in North Carolina, lives in a caravan park, has learnt the art of motor mechanics, acquired excellent cooking skills and watches as the world goes by.
Nothing seems to disturb the humdrum, day-to-day existence of M as, on a daily basis, he works, takes a bath, combs the bovine parts of his body, carefully treats the line where his body becomes man, manicures and polishes his horns, repairs his clothes, cleans his shoes, keeps his old car going, and makes interminable lists of things to do. The Minotaur has become a creature of habit - predictable and unsurprising.
However, we gradually realise that, even though most of M's emotions are suppressed - for example, he does not allow himself to feel guilty about those he killed and devoured in ancient times - he is very capable of liking, even loving. This latter is developed carefully, with surprises and setbacks, as Sherrill sensitively and sympathetically develops a heart-rending portrayal of loneliness in all its forms. Being different makes M an outsider - his horns get in the way from time to time, he likes to eat raw onions, he is socially gauche - yet he yearns to be accepted.
M does not necessarily like all that he sees or enjoy all that he does but recognises that the world will continue to turn so he may as well get on with life.Read more ›
The writing here is lyrical but not overdone. There's a beautiful balance struck between pathos and world weariness. The minotaur cuts a tremendously sympathetic figure, carving steaks and fixing engines as he observes the people around him bustling and chatting. He yearns to be included, but his inarticulacy and overwhelming shyness keep him on the sidelines.
When a pretty young waitress joins the bar grill where he works, he struggles to act upon the very human feelings stirred in his ancient heart.
This is an absorbing read and I recommend it very, very strongly.
The style is sparse andelegant. Not a word is wasted and I enjoyed ever single one of them.

We need to talk about Pokémon Go's lure feature
Are there any articles on how this game actually works? Loads of news articles doing the rounds about kids wandering off into woods etc but no actual journalism into the mechanics of it all.
Aside from the lure function detailed here, is there physically a team at the development studio choosing locations in some way, is it entirely random, or is it all based on the lure mechanic? Reply +1

Dangerous Golf review
Another one disappointed with load times here. Burnout 2 (on the GameCube) with its vast array of Crash Junctions worked so well because you could restart instantly or be on the next junction in seconds.
Dangerous Golf has the double sin of taking as long to load as a level takes to play, then it pretty much boots you back to the menu after each hole rather than throwing you in to the next straight away. Reply +3
Bought this today, very, very superficial. It has almost none of the skill involved with the wonderful Burnout crash junctions. Teeing off has extremely limited control, and putting is so irrelevant it may as well not be there.
It's also a mess visually, it's very difficult to know what's going on or what destruction you've caused.
I normally find good in games, but I'm struggling here. Reply +5

F1 2016 reintroduces safety car and career mode to Codemasters' series
They've explained in some detail why it's impossible to release much earlier. As mentioned they only see the cars when everyone else does, rules are modified literally up to the last minute before the season starts, and new circuits barely even exist.
The biggest issue is getting everything signed off though. Every team, sponsor, the FIA etc want time to review and agree to the liveries, track sponsorship etc that Codies model. That bit alone takes months. Reply +3

My spoilery Firewatch theory
Interesting to think that it's a game with multiple outcomes without the need for actual multiple outcomes, very clever.
Some have doggedly pursued a relationship with Delilah, some have tried to undo the 'mistake' of leaving Julia as much as possible, some have concentrated solely on the conspiracy angle etc etc. Most people seem to have generally overlooked/ignored the son and his Dad though.
All roads lead to the same outcome, at least digitally on screen, but what people take from it varies quite a bit. Reply +2
I thought it was incredibly clever to provoke what would presumably be very real reactions in 'real life' from the gamer (paranoia, mainly), without ever actually having to be fantastical or unrealistic.
It's also interesting to read how people take to Delilah, I was massively unsure of her so didn't explore the relationship at all, with minimal or no responses whenever possible. I felt quite guilty after! I know others tried their best to pursue a relationship. Reply +2
How do our gaming habits change as we grow up?
I find it ironic that as an older person I have more disposable income than ever, games are now cheaper than ever, but I have no time to play the damn things, competitively or not.
Online/competitive gaming is even more of a faff, with family around / kid waking up in the evening etc playing online is simply not a practical option. Much easier to immerse in a single player game where nobody will be peeved if I have to quit all of a sudden. Reply 0

Does The Witness make you feel sick?
Motion sickness is a complex beast and in my experience it's very difficult to pin down the exact issue with a particular game, it can often be a combination of fairly subtle things. On the PS4 I can play Star Wars Battlefront for hours, but Battlefield 4 made me very sick pretty quickly, as far as I'm aware they use the same engine and both are fairly open (i.e. not corridor based) games, so it's odd to say the least.
Third person games are generally ok for me, but Fallout 3 was terrible. Portal was pretty much instant, yet Half Life 2 was ok. It makes little sense, but I've never experienced a fix that has actually worked.
For me, absolutely nothing will shake it short of going to bed and sleeping it off. It's a horrible feeling and one I am extremely cautious to avoid (usually by avoiding FPS' full stop). Reply +2
Star Wars Battlefront patch nerfs Boba Fett, DL-44, Bowcaster, Homing Shot
I've never been killed by the Bowcaster so unsure how common its usage actually was/is, certainly nothing like the DL44.
I always smile if killed by the Jawa shotgun thing though, that thing takes some proper thought to use effectively. Reply +1
The Homing Shot lock on time is probably going to have the biggest impact on the average player, judging by how games normally play out. Reply +1

A Legacy to Celebrate: Granny Ruth
March 22, 2016
I said good-by to a sweet friend yesterday named Granny Ruth. But I' m sure Jesus greeted her with a warm "Well done!" as she stepped through the gates of heaven. How I will miss her!
I wrote a story about Granny Ruth in one of my books, Day-votions® for Grandmothers. She was one of the most precious, godly women I've ever known, a wonderful example of the "Proverbs Woman," and someone who always said with her life and her words, "There you are!" not "Here I am!"
Her Legacy Will Live On
Ruth had few wrinkles, but she shared miles of smiles through the years with every person she met. The things we could share (and were shared yesterday) about Ruth's life would fill a book by itself. And her legacy will live on forever. But as a special, personal tribute to this gracious woman, tender nurse, beautiful friend, sweet servant, and prayer warrior, here is a microscopic look at Granny Ruth's life as "Everyone's Granny."

A very good B&B
Absolutely lovely! It made for a fantastic getaway right at the edge of the forest but was also in short driving distance to shopping and Vancouver. The breakfasts were amazing -- gourmet and a total feast for the stomach and eyes!
Loved the Thistle Down B&B. It was the wifey and I first trip to Vancouver and my first time at a Bed and Breakfast. I'm glad we made this choice over a traditional corporate hotel. Liz and her husband were absolutely lovely hostesses and the daily breakfast meals that she made for use will forever spoil my expectations of what a proper traditional breakfast should be. It was that good. The room was comfortable, clean and quiet. Perfect for a couple who doesn't require a lot of space. The neighbourhood was very nice too. We fell in love with Vancouver and are already planning our next trek out there again. The Thistle Down is high up on our list to stay again.
My wife and I stayed here over a long weekend and it was by far the best B&B we have ever stayed at anywhere. We were in the Memories Room that had a very comfortable king bed, desk, two comfortable chairs, and a fireplace with an attached bathroom. (It is much nicer in person than in the pictures.) The 3 course breakfast was like eating in a gourmet restaurant every morning. The rest of the house is beautifully decorated, cozy, and warm. Soothing music was always playing in the morning. The service was better than a 4 star hotel with Liz the manager suggesting amazing places to eat and acting like the best concierge. The owners Brian and Virginia were friendly and very accommodating. We had some of the best conversations with people from all over at breakfast. The location is perfect - walking distance from the Capilano Bridge, on Grouse Mountain, an hour and a half from Whistler, and 15 minutes from downtown Vancouver. We are already making plans to return.
What a cozy little bed and breakfast. The staff was wonderful and the breakfast was great.
