* Postgame Interviews
* Photo Gallery
* Upon Further Review
* Box Score
N.C. State (14-13, 4-9 ACC) jumped out to a 19-9 lead, but North Carolina (21-6, 11-2 ACC) closed out the first half on a 22-10 run to take a 31-29 advantage into the locker room. UNC scored 15 of the second-half's first 23 points to build a nine-point cushion before the Wolfpack answered with a 13-4 spurt to knot the game at 50.
The Tar Heels issued a 7-0 run to work its lead back out to eight points and then Barnes delivered back-to-back highlight reel jams off offensive rebounds to increase UNC's lead to 64-56 with 3:40 remaining. N.C. State would get no closer than five points the rest of the way.
Barnes led North Carolina with 16 points, while John Henson posted eight points, 15 rebounds and six blocks. Kendall Marshall added 14 points, five assists and five turnovers. C.J. Leslie paced the Wolfpack with 13 points and eight rebounds, and Tracy Smith added 12 points and seven rebounds.
North Carolina shot 42.4 percent (28-of-66, 5-of-15 on 3-pointers) from the floor, while holding N.C. State to 43.1 percent (28-of-65, 3-of-14 on 3-pointers). UNC made more 3-pointers (5) than its opponent for just the third time in ACC play and accomplished that feat for the second time against the Wolfpack.
An Offensive Spark – Finally
North Carolina converted four of its first 16 field goal attempts on one assist in the first nine minutes on Wednesday night. In other words, it looked like just another day at the office for a Tar Heel squad that has struggled mightily with its shooting in recent weeks.
But the lids finally cracked on the rims after halftime as UNC turned in its best shooting half – 48.5 percent on 16-of-33 field goal attempts – in five games.
Leading the effort was Barnes, who knocked down a jumper on North Carolina's first possession in the second half and later delivered a pair of rim-rattling dunks that fueled his squad to its 14th victory in 16 games. The freshman scored 14 of his 16 points and grabbed six rebounds over the final 20 minutes.
"I didn't like Harrison's 0-for-6 in the first half, but he was 6-for-11 in the second half," UNC head coach Roy Williams told reporters after the game. "He's got a tremendous amount of confidence… I thought he was very assertive in the second half."
Barnes has become notorious for elevating his play during crunch time, but even he can't answer why his shot comes easier when the tension rises.
"If I knew, I definitely would make that into a consistent game," Barnes said. "I don't know – it's just a piece of mind. You either make or miss at that time in the game, so you just have to shoot it."
Rivalry Smack
While Wanda Williams's newspaper incident with the N.C. State students standing behind her set the Twitter world afire roughly 10 minutes into Wednesday's contest, there was no shortage of rivalry conflict on the hardwood, either.
Barnes and N.C. State forward Scott Wood were chatty throughout the evening, Marshall and Wolfpack counterpart Ryan Harrow attempted to outduel each other at point guard and even Javy Gonzalez welcomed Justin Knox into the rivalry with a forearm to the back during a dead ball.
North Carolina may currently own this rivalry, but make no mistake about it – this is still a rivalry.
"They wanted to compete and they weren't shy about letting us know that, so we were right there with them," Barnes said.
As usual, leave it to the team elders to play the parent role and make sure things didn't get too far out of hand.
"I didn't really get involved," Zeller said. "It was one of those things where I saw it going on and I was just trying to keep everybody from getting any technicals or anything that would hurt us in the end."
Shared experiences are the key to building team chemistry and confidence in each other, and learning to harness emotions during intense rivalry contests is just another brick in the wall.
The Return of the Guard
If there has been one position that has been heavily criticized at North Carolina in recent weeks, it's the shooting guard spot. And rightfully so – over the past four games, Dexter Strickland and Leslie McDonald have combined to average 8.8 points on 24.3 percent shooting (9-of-37).
Strickland has struggled mightily in his starting role during that stretch, scoring two points or less and failing to convert a field goal in three of those games.
But with the Tar Heels trailing 11-4 early after missing eight of their first 10 shots, McDonald and Strickland shook off the rust and scored 14 of UNC's next 22 points. McDonald drained a 3-pointer and a mid-range jumper on back-to-back possessions, and then after the Wolfpack scored five straight points to increase their lead to 19-9, Strickland ignited an 8-0 UNC run with back-to-back transition lay-ups.
Add in Marshall's seven points and UNC's backcourt total of 21 points in the opening 20 minutes represented the most points scored in a game by that trio since a 23-point effort against Duke on Feb. 9.
Strickland finished with 13 points on 5-of-8 shooting, which stands as his second-highest point total in ACC play (15 vs. FSU).
"It was important for us because I felt like if I got going that would lead to a better chance of us winning, and it did," Strickland said. "I've just got to have that focus every night and we'll be all right."
Winning the Boards
N.C. State announced on Tuesday morning that reserve forward Richard Howell would sit out the UNC game after suffering a concussion against Maryland on Sunday. The sophomore's 7.7 points per game were undoubtedly missed against the Tar Heels, but his absence was felt more on the glass.
In N.C. State's four ACC wins, it has posted a plus-9.8 rebounding advantage, but in its first eight losses, that statistic plummeted to a minus-6.5 deficit. Howell serves a critical role in the Pack's rebounding success by pulling down 6.5 boards per game – good for second on the team – so it was critical for Smith, Leslie and Jordan Vandenberg to pick up the slack.
The Wolfpack were already facing an uphill battle in the rebounding category. North Carolina entered the game as the ACC leader in rebounding margin (plus-5.8), while N.C. State ranked eighth with a minus-1.1 mark. In the first meeting between these programs on Jan. 29, the Tar Heels handed the Wolfpack its largest rebounding deficit of the season with a 53-39 advantage.
North Carolina has been just as effective on the glass over the past week, outrebounding Wake Forest by 15 and Boston College by 14. Henson has been the driving force with five straight double-digit rebounding performances, and the lanky sophomore continued that dominance on Wednesday with 15 rebounds.
The Tar Heels owned a 29-26 rebounding advantage midway through the second half, but the Wolfpack missed nine of 12 field goal attempts during a critical late stretch and UNC was ultimately able to pull away with a 47-33 margin on the glass.
"It was very big for us because we knew that when we won the first game, we outrebounded them, so we wanted to do that again in this game," Barnes said.

Mature Christian

- In every church and in a christian community, we find two
types of christians.
1. Nominal Christians
2. Real Christians
1. Nominal Christian:
It looks that this group is the dominating group in all
the Churches. Jesus also said in Mat 7:13, "Enter by the
narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way
that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in
by it.Mat 7:14 "Because narrow is the gate and difficult
is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find
How true His words are. Many are in Christian homes, but they
do not know what the true Gospel of Jesus Christ is. Many spend
their entire life hearing Christ's teachings (life giving word),
but still miss the very life itself. They hear the true Gospel
through out their entire life but alas they do not find the Savior
(Jesus). They live in Christian homes, but still lose heaven. Why?
They stay as nominal christians till their death. They stay away
from Christ, the life giver. The inefficiency of our churches is
the major cause for their ruin. Our pastors, most of whom are not
saved and who do not know how to lead a holy and clean life are
the major stumbling blocks for the destruction of their congregation.
That is why Jesus said to the Pharisees, and Priests of His time:
Mat 23:23 "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay
tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have neglected the weightier
matters of the law: justice and mercy and faith. These you ought to
have done, without leaving the others undone.
Mat 23:27 "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are
like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but
inside are full of dead men's bones and all uncleanness.
Mat 23:28 "Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but
inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.
Mat 23:29 "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you
build the tombs of the prophets and adorn the monuments of the
Luke 11:52 "Woe to you lawyers! For you have taken away the key of
knowledge. You did not enter in yourselves, and those who were
entering in you hindered."
Don't we see the same picture repeated today in our churches also?
Our church fathers and pastors don't want to go to heaven and neither
do they want to see their congregation going to heaven. That is why
our churches are full of such christians born in christian homes, who
are members of the church, who have christian names, but still they
are not christians, in the true sense, according to Bible.
Acts11:26 ...... And the disciples were first called Christians in
Antioch. According to Bible not all the people were called christians
but only disciples. Those who followed Christ, those who were ready
to walk in His footsteps, those who wanted to stick around with Jesus
all the time, those who were even willing to die for Jesus were
called disciples.
What about you? Are you a true disciple of Jesus Christ? Do you know
Him personally? Do you have close relationship with Jesus? Do you
have that holiness and integrity in your life, which is required for
being a disciple of Jesus Christ? If not you need to repent from your
sins and to reconcile with Christ to get the discipleship.
2. Real christians:
John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to
you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."
John 3:7 "Do not marvel that I said to you, 'You must be born again.'
Here Jesus is talking to Nicodemus. He was not talking to an ordinary
person. But Nicodemus was a very learned man, he was a Priest
(Pharisee) of a synagogue. Jesus said to him, "unless one is born
again he cannot see the kingdom of God." That's it. It is so plain
and simple. Jesus said it. But alas, our Churches are not ready to
accept it. It has become an offensive word for main-line churches. If
you talk about born again exprrience and bring the words, "born
again" in your message, the congregation will gnash their teeth
as if something very wrong has happened. When our churches do not
believe in the spoken words of Jesus, when they do not have respect
for Jesus' words, why they are going to respect? As long as churches
ignore the words of Jesus, it will continue to produce Nominal
When a person gets saved (born again), the person becomes a member of
the family of God (Jesus) John 1:12.
John 1:12, "But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to
become children of God, to those who believe in His name:" Today we
do not need the membership of a church to reach heaven, but off
course we need membership in the kingdom of God. If you are not saved
till today, if your sins are not forgiven till this time, know for
sure that you'll not be able to see the kingdom of God and entering
into heaven will be a distant dream. Those who are washed by the
precious blood of Jesus are Real Christians but others are not.
A cat born in a garage does not become a car. In the same way, a
person born in a christian home does not become a child of God. Your
parents may be saved but it cannot make you an heir to heaven. Your
husband or wife may be a born again believer, but it does not give
you assurance of a place in heaven. It is your own personal
commitment with God which make your ways straight before God. It is
your obligation and responsibility to get your relationship correct
with God before the time runs out.
Al-right now let's see who the Mature Christians are:
1. Who walks in the ways of God
2. Who keeps their garment white all the time
3. Who does not quit in the middle
1. Who walks in the ways of God:
Walking in the ways of God means obeying God all the time. You cannot
walk with God only on Sundays and the rest of the days doing things
your own way. Many look holy on Sundays in Church, but as soon as
they come out of Church they start doing all kinds of stuff which are
sinful in the sight of God like drinking, watching filthy things in
TV, telling lies, cheating and so on. If you are doing such things,
you are still carnal, that is, you are a nominal Christian. If you
are not obeying God even after receiving salvation, nobody else can
help you out. If you practice such things even after salvation your
salvation may not last forever.
Bible speaks about Moses, the man of great faith and integrity. He
was a very faithful prophet because of his faithfulness towards God
who spoke to him face to face.
Num 12:6 Then He said, "Hear now My words: If there is a prophet
among you, I, the LORD, make Myself known to him in a vision; I speak
to him in a dream.
Num 12:7 Not so with My servant Moses; He is faithful in all My house.
Num 12:8 I speak with him face to face,
Bible tells us that God met Moses at a burning bush. He says to
Moses, "go and tell the king pharaoh 'God says let my people go'."
Here is a man who is living happily with his family in the land of
Midian. Here he is in a very comfortable position and God of Israel
comes to him and says, "go to Egypt to deliver My people." Moses
could have known very well that it is not an easy job to stand before
the king of a land and say, "my God says so." He could have easily
killed Moses since no one has authority to give a command to a king.
Moses might have known it. That is why he argues with God saying that
he is not eloquent and does not fit for the job. Exo 3:11 But Moses
said to God, "Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should
bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?"
Task was very heavy before Moses, even this task could have killed
him, but Moses was determined to obey God. That is called walking in
the ways of God. Ready to obey God even in impossible situations. He
obeyed God, he was a trustworthy man, a faithful man before God and
that is why God exalted him. He could lead 600,000 people to victory.
2. Who keeps their garment white all the time:
Rev 7:13, "Then one of the elders answered, saying to me, "Who are
these arrayed in white robes, and where did they come from?" Rev
7:14, "And I said to him, "Sir, you know." So he said to me, "These
are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and washed their
robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
When a person gets saved the white garment (garments of
righteousness) is given to him/her. It is expected to keep the white
garment always clean, stain free and wrinkle free. Eph 5:27, "that He
might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or
wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without
blemish." Jesus is coming for His bride, which is having white
garment without any blemish or spots on it.
Every saved person has a duty to keep their white garment clean. It
means continuous walk in holiness is a must for every believer. Think
about it, if you are wearing a white, beautiful, silky, shiny wedding
gown in a party. If you drop something suppose coke on it how you
will feel. You'll feel embarrassed, ashamed to face people because
your gown is now stained in brown color. The same thing happens to
your spiritual garment too. When you speak a lie here goes a coke
stain on your garment. When you cheat somebody you've dropped the
cake with lots of cream on your garment. When you spread false rumors
about anybody you've dropped the pasta with sauce on it. When you
drink in a bar or at your house though nobody is watching you but
you've dropped the chicken curry on it. When you sit before TV to
watch all kinds of filthy and ugly stuff you've dropped the fruit pie
with lots of jam (jelly) on it. Oo...Ooo...now your dress looks
really ugly, yucky, messy, smelly. No one wants to come near by you.
You do not want to show your face to anybody either.
Here is the list of sin: There are several similar lists in Bible. We
need to correct ourselves daily according to Bible.
Gal 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery,
fornication, uncleanness, lewdness,
Gal 5:20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies,
outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies,
Gal 5:21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of
which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past,
that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of
Many are living in sin and have stained their garments already. They
have messed it up beyond repair. What about you? When Jesus will
return for His bride how will you look before Him? Think about it,
how much holiness is needed to stand before Him with white, spotless,
wrinkle free garment.
3. Does not quit in the middle:
A Mature Christian will not quit any time. Let wind blow, let storm
rage, let tornado and hurricane come, nothing makes you afraid.
Nothing makes you to quit. Moses did not quit at the banks of red
sea. David did not quit when he was fleeing to save his life. Paul
did not quit when he was put in prison.
I once read the Fox's book of Martyrs It tells the stories of people
who lived for christ and suffered for him and finally died for him. I
could not read it fully, the reason is that I had no courage to read
about the horrible sufferings of people who suffered for Christ.
History says that John the revelator who wrote the last book of the
Bible 'Revelation' had gone through horrible suffering. He was put in
boiling oil. You can imagine what would have happened to him when he
was told that he is about to be put in boiling oil. They might have
told him, "Renounce Christ or get into the frying pan." I do not know
how he could hold his faith. I heard that, "he was flopping in that
boiling oil. But he was not dying. When they saw that he was not
dying they pulled him out with the help of a stick. His body was
totally disfigured. But some version says that he escaped
miraculously uninjured from the boiling oil. History says, that after
that they kept him as a prisoner in the Isle of Patmos where he wrote
the Book of Revelation.
Many suffered for Christ and even died, but they refused to quit.
What about you? Are you a mature christian? Are you walking in
holiness? Is your garment, which you got at the time of salvation,
still white? Are you ready to meet your creator Jesus Christ anytime?
Think about it.
May God help you to stand for Christ till the end
By Sheela Isaac
From the desk of moderators
Bible is not a book which anybody could quote as they wish.
Partial or out of context quote will do fatal damage than
helping a soul. The Bible should be understood based on for
the purpose, which it is written. It is not a complete history,
or biography, or story, or chronology book. From the beginning
to the end each Verse is to compliment the other. One verse
cannot be interpreted against another, or against the Central
Theme. Christianity will collapse if you extract Judaism out of it.
Because it is built on Judaism as a continuation. Even our Qurbono
Thaksa is written using Hebrew worship as a template. Each student
of faith should have some basic background knowledge about the bible
even before they starts studying it.
Yes, Jesus commanded that you should be born again and you are. You
should obey all the commandments and receive the Sacraments. Do not
misunderstand that you can earn Salvation but it is a gift from God
through his only begotten Son Jesus Christ.
A cat born in a garage has no comparison to a child born from faithful
parents. There are many evidences in the history of Christianity to
prove it. In the earlier Church there were people received Baptism for
their loved ones who were not baptized before their death. Jesus healed
many accepting somebody else's faith. Apostles baptized the entire
families on the basis of one man's convictions. Saint Kuriakose was
only a baby (3Years) when he became a martyr. You do not have to be
at certain age to receive Salvation. If you can be biologically born
without your consent by the act of your parents you can be "Born Again"
with the same parents' wish.
Even though the posting is against the teaching of our Church, we are
approving with out EDITING it for the healthy discussion among our members
and safeguarding their faith against any sort of misguiding they may face
in their life.

Some wonderful words of wisdom from Will Smith…
There are so many nuggets of gold in this post that it's kind of hard to say ANYTHING after a video like that!
My favorite today…
"I want to do good, I want the world to be better because I was here!"
This one tugs at my heart as I've been going through a lot of reevaluation of not only who I am but also who I serve and what that means. A little like a spiritual crisis only this one I know most of the answers too I just need to KNOW them a little deeper this time around. It's a time to reaffirm my place in the cosmic order.
This is one of my long time favorites and I've listened to it several times today and really been reminded of so many powerful truths.
… and who knew Will Smith was so cool anyways?!?!
What is your favorite quote from this today and what part of your current situation does it most call out to? What can you do, either through physical action or through consciously shifting your mindset to bring this situation into alignment?

Chapter FiveMature
Chapter Five
I tried not to feel self-conscious as William followed me up the stairs and through the narrow corridor and past various doors. The corridor opened up after that, with railing where you could see down into the living room. My door was right at the end of the corridor. I felt the self-consciousness go up a few notches when I opened my door and we walked in. There were some books and DVDs strewn across surfaces, but otherwise my room was fairly neat.
"Any clue how long your going to be here?" I asked, still standing nervously near the door.
"Nope," he replied, walking in and scanning the room quickly. "They'll call me when it's done." I nodded and shut the door.
"What are you going to do?" I asked. I knew the rules of the treaty, but that didn't mean they'd follow them.
"Rescue the girls family," William said. "That's what you want, right?" I blinked at the question, realising he was being evasive.
"And what about Francis?" I asked. He hesitated, his gaze flicking away and out the window.
"He pleaded his case. The council decided to give him a second chance," William began. I felt my muscle tense up at the words and narrowed my eyes. "Provided he doesn't attack you and yours unprovoked, he stays alive. We made that point very clear to him," he finished.
"So, you're just letting him go?" I asked, not even bothering to hide my disgust.
"The council is," William replied. "I got overruled." I blinked, surprised. He snorted at my expression and turned away, sitting on the bed. He let out a tired sigh, his face far away. I chewed my lower lip nervously. Once again I'd gone and screwed up, assumed he was something he wasn't. I couldn't help studying his face as he starred out the window. He still hadn't told me how old he was, but he looked like someone who had probably had high standing. The lines of his face were elegant and he had long lashes that hooded his pale blue eyes. I'd never seen someone look so detached. And yet, I had a feeling he was sad. Probably my fault. Or maybe I was giving myself too much credit. He has no reason to care about what I think.
"Want to watch a movie?" I asked. He glanced at me, frowning. Apparently he'd never expected that question. "We have to pass the time," I shrugged. He nodded, a whisper of his smile returning.
"Sure. Though unless you have all the classics I doubt I'll like it," he replied.
"If you mean do I have any black and white films, that's a no," I said, sitting cross-legged by the TV cabinet to shuffle through the cases. He made a tutting sound. I continued glancing through the DVDs, trying to figure out what kind made sense. He was going to judge me no matter what I put on, I knew that. I paused in my actions as I felt breath brush the back of my neck. I glanced over my shoulder and there was William. Right there. Kissing distance from my face. He wasn't looking at me though, he was looking over my shoulder at the films I had. Right, movie. There was no way he didn't hear my heart right now. Maybe he didn't react because he was used to it. He was hot enough to get attention from lots of people.
"You're making this too easy," he murmured. I glanced back and realised he was looking at me now, and the distance hadn't grown any longer. I'd never seen that kind of expression before, and I didn't know what to make of it.
"What?" I blurted, aware I was starting to blush.
"This is a bad idea," he whispered to himself, stifling a short laugh and looking down. Wait, that look. Had it been? Did he … did he want me? I couldn't decide how to react to the idea. I'd never thought of myself as being the sort of person someone could want - but it was definitely a bad idea.

The All Blacks could be set to add more prizes to an already-glittering year after leading today's nominations for the 51st Halberg Awards.
There were 58 nominations in six categories for the nation's pre-eminent sporting awards, with the field now to be narrowed down by a panel of 30 former athletes, coaches and media representatives, before February's ceremony.
After an unbeaten season was capped by a clean sweep of the IRB end-of-year awards, the All Blacks could enjoy further success in three categories - team of the year, coach of the year (Steve Hansen) and sportsman of the year (Kieran Read).
Competition will be fierce, though, with the team field containing 13 nominations. Along with the All Blacks, there were nods for five yachting teams, including Emirates Team New Zealand, and four rowing crews, including another unbeaten team, men's pair Eric Murray and Hamish Bond.
Cycling was recognised through the men's team sprint, while the three-time Australian NBL champion Breakers and the world champion Black Sox round out the category.
Read is also facing a tough field for the sportsman prize, with IndyCar champion Scott Dixon the other frontrunner, while Hansen will have to fend off eight coaches, including three from rowing.
The sportswoman of the year award will be hotly contested by eight nominees, including three-time world championship medallist Lauren Boyle, teen golfing sensation Lydia Ko, and world champions Lisa Carrington and Valerie Adams.
The voting academy will now cast their ballots to determine the finalist, which are announced on January 1, while outstanding performances by individual athletes or teams are still considered until December 31.
The winners of the sportsman, sportswoman, disabled sportsperson and team of the year award categories will again be eligible for the country's supreme accolade for sporting excellence - the Halberg Award.
The criteria for the prize states it will be presented to the individual athlete, athlete in a team, or team whose achievement represented excellence in sport at the highest level, with last year's winners Bond and Murray a chance to repeat.
Other award categories that will be presented at the awards dinner on February 13 include New Zealand's favourite sporting moment - the finalists for which will be announced in January - the Sport New Zealand leadership award and inductees into the Sports Hall of Fame.

On July 23 it was announced that London Olympics sprinter Ryota Yamagata (22, Keio Univ.) will join Seiko Holdings Corporation and be based in California, U.S.A. Yamagata's decision was a big one, made in anticipation of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Turning down offers from many top corporate league teams, he entered into a sponsorship agreement with Seiko Holdings, manufacturers of watches and other precision mechanical equipment.
Seiko does not currently have a track and field team, but Yamagata intends to move to California by himself following his graduation next spring and as part of his agreement with Seiko, at his own request he will be responsible for choosing his coach, trainer, training location and environment himself. "Maybe I could have gotten the best support somewhere else, but I want to open up new ways of doing things," he commented. Having developed his training menus through his own study ever since high school, Yamagata's decision to go it alone comes as no surprise. He plans to brush up his language skills from now until next spring. "I'm okay when it comes to everyday conversation," he said. "I just have to study more."
Seiko first became the official Olympic timekeeper 50 years ago at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. As an official partner of the IAAF it is also the official timekeeper of the World Track and Field Championships, giving it a strong connection with the world of athletics. "Yamagata will be 28 at the time of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, and that will be the culmination of his career," said Keio University head coach Shintaro Kawai. "After his retirement he will have the option of working at Seiko if he wants, which was also part of the decision."
In the 2012 London Olympics heats Yamagata ran 10.07, the fastest-ever by a Japanese athlete at the Olympics. Following that he went through a period of injury, but expectations are still high that he will bring Japan its first sub-10. By taking his game to one of track and field's great powers, Yamagata is aiming to go even further.

Saracens' European Rugby Champions Cup clash with Clermont Auvergne on Saturday is vital to Brad Barritt's bid for an England recall.
The 18-cap back has not started a Test this year, having lost ground to rivals for the England centre role while recovering from foot surgery a year ago.
Before the operation, Barritt was England's 'captain' of defence and he needs to impress again as he is up against Luther Burrell, Billy Twelvetrees, Manu Tuilagi, Jonathan Joseph and Kyle Eastmond for a place in the team. It is also possible Owen Farrell will be considered at inside centre to get Bath No10 George Ford into the England side.
Sarries' match at Allianz Park comes just four days before Stuart Lancaster announces his squad for the autumn Tests, giving Barritt an extra reason to shine.
According to critics, the 28-year-old's attacking ability lags behind his defensive excellence but he said: "A lot of the work I do in attack - organisation, passing, carrying, kicking and distribution - often gets overlooked because of what I do in defence.
"The way we play at Sarries brings out the best in our game and I am constantly working on those areas and I believe I do play a big role in our attacking moves.
"Playing for England is a huge driver for me and something I think about every day."

A friend and I just stayed here for 5 nights August 23-27th - and were really pleasantly surprised. The price was very reasonable, the staff were really helpful - really nice, the room we had - on the ground floor was clean and comfortable and the decor was excellent. We arrived early so this room was offered us so we agreed - it was fine - very quiet. The pool was fine and the hot tub too. Also live music. You can walk into Carmel in about 20 minutes - we did not have a car so used local buses which were across the road near Starbucks.
The buses are hourly - the 24 goes to Monterey and Carmel. You can also get the 24 to Carmel valley and do some wine tasting. We got the number 22 to Big Sur - which was just amazing. We got the first bus in the morning and the last one back and were on the bus each way for about an hour - scenery just stunning and the bus driver stopped for us to take pics. We went to Nepente restaurant/shop/cafe - not to be missed. The hotel also offers a happy hour which we went to once - only had one drink but the food - was good a selection of hot and cold which was complimentary and well worth a try once - excellent value. This is a really good base and also very handy for both Carmel and Monterey. I would stay there again and highly recommend.
