Syrian opposition defense chief says Iraq events prove U.S. must send rebels aid
With Iraq's security forces having fled the country's northern provinces and abandoned the region to extremists from the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, Syrian rebel leaders are calling on the United States to "stand with us" in the fight against the terror group and provide the weapons needed to defeat them.
"We can't separate what's going on in Iraq from what's going on in Syria.," said Muhammad Nour al Khallouf, who has been the acting defense minister for Syria's opposition coalition since mid-May. "The whole region is connected to one another, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan and the Gulf. The collapse has begun in Iraq, and no one knows where it will end."
ISIS, as the Islamic State is known, captured Iraq's second largest city, Mosul, last week, and now controls Iraq's Nineveh province, which borders Syria. For more than a year, ISIS has controlled Syria's Raqqa province and moved its forces and supplies through the region. Until Wednesday, when an opposition group in Deir el Zour province reported that Syrian government planes had bombed an ISIS convoy moving toward Iraq, there have been few signs that ISIS had faced challenges from forces loyal to Syrian President Bashar al Assad.
ISIS was generally considered an ally by rebels in the battle to topple Assad until January, when moderate rebel factions, angered by ISIS's brutal tactics and draconian rule in areas it controlled, went on the offensive, pushing ISIS from Idlib province in the country's north.
Intense fighting between ISIS and other rebel factions is raging in eastern Syria, where ISIS says it has eliminated the World War I-era border that separates northern Iraq from eastern Syria.
"It is normal and necessary that our American friends and the western community start thinking seriously that what's going on in Syria might happen in the future in Lebanon and Jordan," Khallouf told McClatchy in a telephone interview. "They must work to put an end to this."
President Barack Obama said Friday that the United States is considering assisting the Iraqi government in its battle against ISIS, but ruled out sending in ground forces. He also conditioned any assistance that is provided, including air strikes, on reconciliation between Iraq's Shiite Muslim-led government and the country's minority Sunni and Kurdish ethnic groups _ a goal of U.S. policymakers that has been unmet for years.
Obama also said that ISIS's ability to gain a foothold in Syria is "part of the reason why we have been so concerned about it" and "part of the reason why we've been supporting the Syrian opposition there."
Khallouf said that he believed that the U.S. would now step up its support of the Free Syrian Army as the U.S. concern over ISIS and other extremist groups rises.
"For the first time, I feel there's a kind of seriousness to support the FSA," he said, without going to detail. He said the challenge the FSA faces is enormous.
"Syria is full of different terrorist groups," he said, listing ISIS, the Nusra Front, al Qaida's Syrian affiliate, and a host of other Islamist groups. "We need a huge amount of supplies to get rid of all kinds of other groups," he said.
A member of Syria's ruling Alawite sect who rose to be a brigadier general in Assad's military, Khallouf blames Syrian ally Iran for the rise of ISIS, even though Iran is a Shiite-ruled theocracy and ISIS is dominated by Sunnis who are fiercely anti-Shiite. By Khallouf's assessment, Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al Maliki, although an ally of Iran and Assad, has at Iran's behest deliberately allowed predominantly Sunni Nineveh province to fall to the Islamists.
Western observers generally disagree with that analysis, and see ISIS as a distinct entity with an agenda of its own in both Syria and Iraq. But ISIS's ability to extend its influence in both Syria, where Iran is the principle backer of the Assad regime, and in Iraq, where ISIS had occupied portions of Anbar province for a year before its rapid march last week, raises questions of both incompetence and possible collusion.
"I assure you that Assad will not attack ISIS, because ISIS is a part of Assad's regime," Khallouf said. He also asserted there had been "good coordination between the security and intelligence of the (Assad) regime and Maliki," he said. "They work as one security team."
He said that ISIS had taken over Mosul "temporarily" as a prelude to policy shifts that would enable Assad to claim he was making "war against terrorism." Many in the Syrian opposition say Assad will eventually turn on ISIS and ask for Western support _ the aim of which Khallouf said is for the West to "forget about the terrorism of the Assad regime."
But while the Assad regime claims to fight terror, he said the Free Syrian army "will fight terror to the end."
If there are strange bedfellows on the side of the Assad government, the same applies to the Syrian opposition.
Take the Nusra Front. The United States blacklisted Nusra at the end of 2012, identifying it as another name for al Qaida in Iraq, ISIS's predecessor organization. It revised the designation this year to recognize that Nusra and ISIS are now separate organizations, with Nusra answering to al Qaida while ISIS has broken with al Qaida.
In Deir el Zour in eastern Syria, Nusra is the principal group fighting ISIS. But Nusra is also battling pro-Assad forces, raising the question of whether the exiled Syrian Opposition Coalition and the Free Syrian Army, its fighting force, are allied with Nusra or opposed to it.
Khallouf explained the relationship by saying not all Nusra fighters follow al Qaida.
"There is an al Qaida organization, and all the world is endeavoring to get rid of it," he said, acknowledging that part of Nusra "belongs to al Qaida as an international organization."
"However," he added, "there are some members of Nusra who have no connection with the al Qaida organization, and they are fighting the regime and ISIS."
He predicted that those Nusra fighters won't pursue al Qaida's agenda of Islamist rule once Assad is forced from office. Instead, they'll go home and pursue their previous trades and professions.
"They are fighting only in Syria," he said.

Civil War All Stars
Union All Stars
Manager - U.S. Grant. Has good success with the two-platoon system; has developed well-balanced team. Possibly a bit lax in enforcing training rules.
First Base-"Cump" Sherman. Watch this boy burn up the base paths. Reminds old timers of the "Georgia Peach" Good at digging them out of the dirt; consistent hitter. Not popular with all fans.
Second Base - George Meade. Good pivot man. Team captain. Always dangerous at the plate. Would attract more attention with a favorable press.
Third Base -"Fighting Joe" Hooker. Whiffs a lot since he was beaned at Chancellorsville. Plenty of natural ability; sometimes clutches under pressure. Good power, but a sucker for an outside curve.
Shortstop - "Phil" Sheridan. Larcenous base runner. Able to go from either side. Real sparkplug of team's offense. Dangerous in the clutch.
Right Field - "Speedy" Burnside. a real "wall climber," which led to injuries last season at Fredericksburg. Has developed a rifle arm. Led the league in strike-outs last season.
Center Field - Jim Wilson. One of the least publicized players in the league. A strong arm and plenty of speed. A good pull hitter. Candidate for rookie of the year.
Left Field - George McClellan. Plenty of natural ability, but slow on the base paths. Probably brought up from the minors too soon.
Catcher-"Rocky" Thomas. Real key to team defense. Good arm; plenty of power. Base runners don't take chances with this one.
Pitcher -"Win" Hancock. Fireballer; tough with runners on base. The best of a weak staff.
Pitcher - Bill Rosecrans. Has good stuff, but experiences difficulty staying ahead of the batter.
Pitcher - "Chief" Custer. Rookie of the year his first full season in the majors. Hasn't been the same since the last series with the Indians!
Middle Relief-"Come to Papa" John Buford. Good with the changeup, continually has batters chasing the Seminary Sinker Ball, a favorite of his.
Closer- Joshua Chamberlain. Calls his overpowering fast ball the swinging gate. Been known to use the inside portion of the plate with great advantage, some cases beaning opposing hitters.
Confederate All Stars
Manager - Robert E. Lee. Aggressive; not afraid to take risks. Lee gets along well with both the players and the front office, but who was it that said "Nice guys don't finish first?"
First Base - "Frenchie" Beauregard. Slick fielder. Has tendency to swing at bad pitches. Has never quite lived up to preseason notices.
Second Base - "Joe Johnston. Good field, no hit. Can make the double play. Has been peddled to several clubs because of his uncertain temperament.
Third Base - "Texas John" Hood. Good at the hot corner; hangs tough at the plate. Provides plenty of batting muscle when not on disabled list.
Shortstop - "Jeb" Stuart. Can play any position, best at short. Good range, often hits for the circuit. A real crowd pleaser.
Right Field - "Ranger" Mosby. Hits well to all fields; excels at hit and run. Really shines when playing in his own field.
Center Field - "Wizard" Forrest. A tough competitor. Covers lots of ground in center. Can hit the long ball. An umpire baiter.
Left Field - "Bill" Hardee. A real student of the game. Dangerous at the plate. One of the most underrated players in either league.
Catcher - "Pete" Longstreet. A steady influence. Plenty of power at the plate a tough competitor and a good pull hitter. Seems to have trouble hitting in Yankee Stadium.
Pitcher - "Stonewall" Jackson. Best righthander in the league. Blazing fast ball. Uses dust-off pitches. Can usually go the route. Chances for a successful year may well rest on Jackson's arm.
Pitcher - "Brax" Bragg. Control pitcher; good for a couple of innings. Would probably work better on a different club.
Pitcher - A. S. "Mormon" Johnston. Master of the curve ball, but sometimes has trouble with control.
Middle Relief - A.P."Red" Hill. Good set-up man when his temper doesn't get in his way. Refuses to pitch when Longstreet is catching. Sometimes feuds with other pitchers.
Closer - "Baldy Ewell" Capable fast baller. Has trouble reading signals, sometimes has problems with power hitters.

Downtown Evergreen now has a boutique that is all about re-accessorizing — whether it's your home or yourself.
Sisters and Company, which opened at the beginning of August, offers an eclectic mix of home furnishings, clothing and accessories. Owners and good friends Karen Carter, Jane Kelso and Valerie Strandquist bring their artistic design and retail sales talents to the shop across the street from Java Groove.
Lack of transportation, a lack of affordable rental housing and low wages continue to affect the Evergreen area's economy, business leaders say.
Companies in the area often can't find and hire the employees they need, business leaders said at a July 29 forum at The Wild Game in Bergen Park and sponsored by Evergreen Christian Outreach and the Evergreen Pathfinders.
Echo Mountain Resort is planning to open as a public ski area on Dec. 10 for the upcoming 2015-16 ski season, according to owner Nora Pykkonen.
The 226-acre ski area on Squaw Pass Road has been operating privately as a venue for the Front Range Ski Club since 2012. Pykkonen Capital LLC bought the ski area in August 2012 for $1.53 million, according to county records.
Danny Cash Hot Sauce is a business that does things its own way.
Or as hot sauce guru Danny Cichon — who prefers to be called "Danny Cash" — puts it: "We step in our own direction."
The owner of the new French bakery/café in El Rancho has a personality that is as appetizing as the items in her dessert cases.
Oksana Romanoff, a Russian-born chef and baker who moved to the United States two years ago and Evergreen recently, is honest, passionate and a perfectionist, and she doesn't mince words about the types of food she is creating for her new Evergreen audience at Kseni Mademoiselle.
What's a more creative way to say "I love you"?
That question plagued Evergreen resident Helene Hughes as she wrote notes for her children's lunch boxes every day when they were growing up.
Hughes' musings led her to create "Symbuzzles" (from the words "symbols" and "puzzles"): word-picture puzzle cards that her kids could figure out.
Real estate agents are using several adjectives to describe the foothills housing market, especially for homes priced below $500,000: hot, a frenzy, popping.
"It's the most active market I've seen in my 30 years in so far as multiple offers and prices being bid up over ask," said real estate agent Wayne Shephard of Shephard Realty. "Homes priced correctly are being sold almost immediately."
Evergreen will have a full-service gun shop beginning June 19.
Yankee Creek Munitions will open on the east side of downtown Evergreen next to Revival Brews. Glenn Adams of Evergreen and Bob Dotson of Bailey own the shop, which will carry handguns, long guns, ammunition, supplies, parts and other items.
Their friend, Mark Molberg of Centennial, will help in the store, plus provide gun-smithing services.
Adams has been selling guns from his home on Yankee Creek Road for two years, and he decided it was time to open his own shop.
O'Reilly Auto Parts won't be coming to an Evergreen location on Bryant Drive after all.
After drawing up preliminary plans for a 6,500-square-foot store and 20 parking spaces at 30406 Bryant Drive, officials decided to look at other locations in Colorado, said Mark Merz, a spokesman for the auto parts company.
Gallerie Quilt is currently leasing the iconic A-frame building, and store owner Steve Starr wants to buy and remodel it. The building is currently listed for sale at $549,000.
Fireweed Brewing has changed its name to Lariat Lodge because of a potential trademark conflict.
The brewpub isn't open for business yet, but it's expected to open in September in the former Evergreen Conference Center with about 100 seats.

This week, The David Baltimore finally came out and said what everyone in HIV research is thinking. Every other day you hear press releases from universities and crappy reporting declaring 'HIV VACCINE IN 2 YEARS!!' (Bossman was 'quoted' in one of those articles last summer). But Baltimore finally got a reporter to just say it:
Attempts to control the virus through antibodies or by boosting the body's immune system have ended in failure.
This has left the vaccine community depressed because they can see no hopeful way of success, Prof Baltimore said.
Yup. HIV vaccines. Epic Fails. I mean epic, with recent trials ending after the vaccine somehow increased HIV infection rates.
HOWEVER Im still pissed at Baltimore, and we would have gotten into a tif over his comments. First of all, the rest of the article is pushing the HIV-gene-therapy therapy the Gates Foundation has been funding.
"In the human you really only have one shot which is to try to change genes in stem cells," said Prof Baltimore, one of the leading experts on the HIV virus.
"So we're trying to do that, to design vectors that can carry genes that will be of therapeutic advantage."
I read about Baltimores strategy last fall in Science, 'Building an HIV-Proof Immune System':
Instructive immunotherapyWhat I understand of that endeavor is that you take out someones pre-B-cells, alter them to produce neutralizing antibodies, and insert them back into the patient before they are infected with HIV.
At the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, David Baltimore has teamed up with immunologist Pamela Björkman on an HIV gene-therapy project that he calls "instructive immunotherapy." Rather than bolstering the natural immune response, Baltimore says, "we're instructing the immune system [about] what to make."
This 5-year experiment lives up to its Grand Challenges billing with its focus on inventing virus-fighting antibodies. Gene therapists have paid antibodies little heed because HIV notoriously remains impervious to their attack. "I didn't think we should be giving up on the historically most powerful part of the immune system," says Baltimore. So he and Björkman are attempting to construct an antibody against HIV that's far more powerful than anything naturally produced by the immune system. Baltimore and co-workers then want to use an HIV-based vector to transduce the gene for this antibody into immune stem cells.
Yeah. Thats a workable solution for AFRICA. Common. Common. What the hell.
Id also say that the only HIV vaccine researchers who are 'depressed' are the ones that have been failing and are currently out of ideas. I might be discouraged, but Im not 'depressed'. From my appearance on IGs show last week:
IG-- Do you think we will ever have a cure for HIV?Here is why I think others might be 'depressed' (*warning* following info is from a bratty student bitching at people who have been involved in HIV research since before she was born). Remember quasispecies? How its like a big cloud floating in sequence-space? Current vaccine trials have been like shooting V2s into the cloud. The cloud doesnt care.
ERV-- Im not sure about a 'cure'. I would be happy with reducing it to a herpes level, where you have to be on drugs, it sucks, but its not going to kill you. Its not going to bankrupt you, trying to get drugs. Im optimistic about a vaccine for it, though! Im not optimistic about current vaccine trials, but Im optimistic about my research and its potential to lead to a workable vaccine target.
My research is based on the hypothesis that the cloud is... um, a cloud. Its a smokescreen hiding the real targets for a vaccine. We have been so intimidated by the cloud that we havent stopped to think that its not the cloud we need to worry about-- there are molecular determinants to sexual transmission. Focus on the viruses with the 'transmission' characteristics. Ignore the rest of the cloud. Got yourself a workable vaccine.
The 'vaccine community' might be depressed, Baltimore, but the basic virologists arent.
Or I might be setting up an epic fail myself.

A landslide near Lyme Regis in Dorset was reported in the media as having occurred on the evening of 6th May 2008 (Figure 1). Specialist staff from the BGS Landslides Team carried out a survey of the landslide using terrestrial and aerial LiDAR to record the nature and location of the mass movement for entry into the National Landslide Database National Landslide Database ID 780/2.
This landslide is part of the Black Ven landslide complex on the West Dorset coast, between Lyme Regis and Charmouth (Figure 2). The landslide occurred after a particularly wet period during winter and early spring.
We routinely send specialist staff to the scene of landslide events to collate data from landslides whilst they are relatively fresh and often active, offering invaluable information.
The principle failure involved material mainly from the Shales with Beef Member of the Charmouth Mudstone Formation. The main failure surface seemed to be at or just above the top of the Blue Lias Formation. The top of the Blue Lias cliff appeared to remain intact, with disturbed Shales with Beef Member material actively sliding over the vertical cliff onto the foreshore below.
The survey was carried out on 8th May 2008 from the rocky foreshore, approximately 200 m from the toe of the active landslide (marked as S1 and S2 on Figure 2). A Riegl LPM-i800HA LiDAR scanner was used in combination with a Leica SmartRover differential Global Positioning System (dGPS). The scanner has a range of up to 800 m with an optimum survey accuracy of 15 mm, scanning at 1000 points per minute. In practice, the system, in combination with a high accuracy dGPS system has proven to offer true survey accuracies of the order of centimetres at a range of up to 600 m, dropping to decimetres at the maximum range on surfaces with poor reflective characteristics.

*Unleashes colossal dump that stinks up the whole household.* *Opens up bathroom door.* *Dog approves of the pungent dump.* It seems like Robert Randolph had something to do with this absolutely, disgusting, bloodcurdling loss to the Bulls tonight. He does have something to do with tonight's appalling loss. But there's more. Don't let the darn score fool you. The Knicks produced an exact carbon copy of the previous meeting against the Bulls at MSG, except, there wasn't a deluge of ejections and technical fouls. But don't get me wrong here; tonight's crap gala was equally as horrid as last night's defeat to the Pacers and the last game against the Bulls a few weeks ago. Essentially, the last two meetings against the Bulls were this: The Knicks would play like a broken record for the first three quarters, and then they would advance towards the front in the late 4th quarter with under two minutes to go. I mean, that's a little to late to charge, wouldn't you think? Tonight, the Knicks shot a god awful 6-23, which is 26.1% of shots made, in the first quarter. Then, the Knicks ended up shooting 29.8% through the first half of play. I don't have a fish, but if I did, I would flush it down the toilet immediately, even if it was alive. I attempted to punch holes through my room wall, but my knuckles bruised because of how impenetrable the Bulls stonewall defensive barricades were yet again. The Knicks ended up shooting 41.1% for the game and scored 41 points in the fourth quarter, thanks to outstanding garbage time scoring, which even set up another bold comeback attempt that came up short. Here are some notes from this poopy game:
- Carmelo Anthony didn't exactly haul ass in his 45 minutes of run. Melo made his first shot after missing his first six shots in the first quarter. He finished the quarter going 1-10 from the field. Melo's shooting woes are to be blamed for him chucking up random shots at times, but most of it was because of Luol Deng's harassing the hell out of him on defense all game. And you know why Deng was aggravating Melo? Because Mike Woodson doomed everyone by not starting Melo at the 4. By not doing that, a lineup that contained the Knicks big three (I hate that term so much, but I had to use it) of Melo, Amare, and Tyson failed just like last season. We all know what happens when those three guys are all on the court together at the same time. The end result is havoc, the havoc being Melo reverting back to his old 2011-12 ways: Playing iso ball on like every possession, abrogating the whole purpose of ball movement sequences that were being orchestrated throughout the whole game. The fact of the matter is that when Woody starts Melo at the power forward position, Melo gets in his zone. It was a genius move. And when he was at the 4 in this game, he wouldn't have had to focus on Luol Deng while playing defense. Instead, J.R Smith could of been on Deng more, hence Deng's first half explosion of 21 points. Too bad Woody started Krazy Eye Kurt over Melo at the 4. Oh well.
- Following his average performance in Indiana as the prime scoring option with Melo out due to suspension, J.R Smith stunk it up shooting 4-17. The Knicks training staff's headband method to heal injury wounds may have taken it's toll already. J.R pretty much did the same thing as Melo by chucking up shots on iso possessions, along with some lackadaisical defense. His SMOY campaign might come to a little halt after tonight's game. After the game, J.R went out, took too much ecstasy, and on his ecstasy trip, he was picturing himself a rave, causing his headband bandage to fall off while dancing. You can see J.R at 1:23 in the video.
- Tyson Chandler had a dwindling game on offense only scoring 9 points on 3-8 shooting, mainly because without Raymond Felton at the helm, he can't receive the daily alley oop or pick and roll assist. However, if you need a window cleaner, you got ol' reliable on the glass. Tyson pulled down 18 rebounds. There were many Tyson Tipouts™ throughout this game, which made me happy. Although Tyson's rebounding was immense, his defense slacked later in the game, as well as his free throw shooting, going 3-6 from the line, which made the Bulls propel into 15-20 point leads.
- I'm not even going to go into Amare Stoudemire's latest defensive atrophy too much. STAT got into early foul trouble, getting tagged with three fouls by the end of the first half, later finishing with 5 fouls. I'm still wondering why Mike Woodson thinks that giving Amare minutes in the fourth quarter is a great idea, especially down the stretch, which is a horrible idea. Again, his switching on rotations were rotations that never should have happened.
- Instead of stepping on a crack, Kurt Thomas broke my mom's back after falling on the hardwood in the early moments of the game. That moment was one of the moments that summed up the Knicks performance in the first three quarters. Fun but depressing fact: At one point, Kurt was the leading scorer going all the way into the second quarter with 6 points. Kurt actually ended with 6 points. Playing Kurt at center in a rotation was perhaps one of the ballsiest moves ever made by Woody this season. Oh, and when Kurt Thomas received a fast break pass from Prigs,' I can picture him running in slow motion to "Chariots Of Fire." But wait a second; isn't it already slow motion when Kurt runs in real time?
- Jason Kidd wasn't able to run the pick and roll because the Bulls play defense that resembles an electric fence. Therefore, the Bulls were covering the pick and roll lanes like it was a border fence. J-Kidd finished with a big fat 0 in the scoring column, going 0-6 from the field, and with no assists, but had 4 quiet rebounds. J-Kidd also passed up a couple of open shots because…who knows? Maybe his thought process screwed up because he was picturing Kirk Hinrich's menacing face without his goggles on in his head.
- Instead of starting Ronnie Brewer (!) at small forward, James White started in place of Brewer. White actually played a decent game. He scored the first points of the game for the Knicks, providing the first forms of life in MSG. White finished with 11 points. The dunk contest is 34 days away, Flight. A new motivational booster for White is thinking about how he lost to David Lee in a high school dunk contest.
- Pablo Prigioni played 30 minutes, more than Jason Kidd (20), and was very efficient from the field, shooting 5-7, scoring 12 points and dished a team leading 8 assists. There were 3 cases of Grand Theft Prigs, but 5 cases of careless Prigs. Prigs found the pick and roll lanes more than J-Kidd did, but it was tough as nails to get through those lanes.
- Steve Novak did his dues by hitting 2-3 threes. Typical Novakaine performance. Nothing new here. Also, Novakaine, please continue to beef with Nate Robinson in the near future. You'll school him every time. The best comeback Nate has is calling Stevak is a clown, just like when DeMar DeRozan called John Hollinger a clown.
- Chris Copeland will continue to do whatever he needs to do for his rookie hazing campaign.
- Marco Belly-Nelly pulled off an obvious flop everyone saw on J.R Smith.
- Joey Crawford was doing some kind of Flashdance jogging exercise and Kirk Hinrich looked at him going like "DA FUCK?"
- "ARGHHHHHHH, YOU STOLE MY SPOT, YA GODDAMN DUNKING FIEND"- said Ronnie Brewer, after discovering that James White was starting over him.
The injury of Raymond Felton is really affecting the way the Knicks are playing right now. Given what has happened throughout the past few games, Jason Kidd tends to play a lot better at the two guard spot than at point guard. Kidd gets gassed very fast, as well as Prigs, playing almost 30 minutes a game. Even though Ray shoots the Knicks out of games at times, we miss his alley oops, pick and rolls, and most importantly, his aggressive attacks to the tin. Felton coming off of dribble penetration is so awesome. Most of the time, it's better when Felton is at the helm. Also, Carlos Boozer can go back to his Sharpie fade and his missed midrange jumpers. Meanwhile, Joakim Noah's B-52's hair bun is what made him block 4 shots. Lastly: If you're ever bored and you want to have a party while a Bulls game is on, you can play the Tom Thibodeau drinking game. The Tom Thibodeau drinking game is where you have to drink every time Thibodeau's voice cracks. Good luck on not trying to pass out. Tonight's game also marks the first three game losing streak of Mike Woodson's Knicks head coaching career.

Co-Players of the Week
Anthony Davis & Michael Kidd Gilchrist, Kentucky
Same player recognition, different week. The pair of freakish freshmen continue to carry the load as the remainder of the Wildcats fight their way through a mid-season slump. In a seven-point victory over Louisville on Saturday, the two combined for 10 of the team's 17 field goal makes (rest of team 7/37), 21 of 32 free throw makes, 42 of 69 points and 29 of 49 rebounds. Davis shattered season-high FT marks converting 12/13, while Kidd-Gilchrist snatched 19 boards from the SF position. In a week that also included a W over Lamar, Davis averaged 14 points, 11.5 rebounds and 6 blocked shots. MKG compiled 21 points per game, 12.5 rebounds and 16 FT makes. Kentucky opens up conference play on Saturday the 7th versus South Carolina. The night in, night out rigors of the SEC will test the mental and physical fortitude of UK's freshmen. No more cupakes to reserve strength.
Who's Hot
Lance Goulbourne, Vanderbilt
Last season Goulbourne waited until mid-January to turn on the jets. This year he's found his stride in late December. In a startling road demolition of 14th ranked Marquette, he scored 13 points (4/5 FG), grabbed 16 rebounds, swiped 3 steals and swatted 3 shots. His defensive effort held Jae Crowder to 4/13 shooting, and the Golden Eagles shot only 32% as a unit. Over his last three contests he's putting up 14 PPG on 74% shooting (17/23), 10 RPG and 2+ SPG. When healthy and on his A game, Goulbourne puts up some beastly numbers.

Justin Bieber: Who's Shawn Mendes? Hmm – INTERVIEW
Watch Justin's reaction when he's asked about 17 year-old fellow Canadian singer, Shawn Mendes.
"Who's Shawn Mendes?" Justin asks over his shoulder to management off-camera with a faint smile, inserting a plastic soda cap into his mouth.
"Oh! He's on Island. He's from southern Ontario. He's 17 years old. He's got a song called 'Stitches' that's, like, doing okay at pop radio," the host stutters, weirdly downplaying the success of the Billboard Hot 100 Top 20 hit. (The album from which it was released, Handwritten, debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200.)
"Nice. Nice. Good for him," Justin replies, further chewing on the cap. Nope. No one coming to mind.
"Oh! Oh wow, so you don't even… I thought for sure you might because he's also from southern Ontario," the host says.
"No. No, I don't know him. But I will check him out. For sure." Mmhmm.

By 1900 Huntley & Palmers were the largest biscuit manufacturer in the world, exporting to Africa, the Americas and the Far East. Their biscuits were purchased by royalty across the globe from Britain to Siam and they were an essential food item for explorers, including Scott of the Antarctic. The firm's name even travelled along trade routes ahead of western expeditions. In 1904 the first Europeans to visit the holy city of Lhasa in Tibet were welcomed with Huntley & Palmers biscuits.

The Start of the Export Trade
When George Palmer joined the partnership in the 1840s other businesses were already exporting British foods. This included Banbury cakes which were sent in wooden boxes to India, Australia and the Americas. However Huntley & Palmers had one major advantage over other food suppliers - their tins. In these tins their biscuits could stay fresh for years as they travelled across the world.

First Continental Representative
Although Huntley & Palmers had been selling biscuits abroad prior to 1865, it was the appointment of a continental sales representative that led to a boom in their overseas sales. In 1865 Joseph Leete proposed to Samuel Palmer that he should seek orders for Huntley & Palmers biscuits in Europe. He set to work and in his first full year, 1866, brought over £10,000 worth of business to the firm.
In 1867 he secured Royal Warrants of Appointment from Leopold II of Belgium and Napoleon III of France. Joseph Leete's territory eventually stretched as far as Russia, Turkey and the north coast of Africa. The rest of the world, not within the remit of Joseph Leete, was covered by the Export department. However it took until 1888 before Huntley & Palmers established their first representative in North America. Nevertheless, by the turn of the century, the firm had resident representatives in North and South America, South Africa, India, China and Japan.

My style crush on Emma Stone is getting nearly as bad as my one for Diane Kruger, I am not sure why but she just has the unique ability to make me smile. I completely adore her girl-next-door vibe mixed in with a chameleon who can work nearly any look, add in her goofy personality and her stunning beauty and she has it all going on. Seriously her Revlon beauty ads make me look twice, and her red carpet looks keep on wowing me.
With all that love I am so pleased to see Emma finally grace the cover of American Vogue, and what a beauty of a cover it is, surely the best one of the year so far. Shot by Mario Testino, Emma looks divine in a look from Nina Ricci's autumn/winter 2012 collection on the July 2012 cover, and the accompanying editorial is just as gorgeous featuring looks from Jil Sander, Ralph Lauren, Prada, and Givenchy.
The Teen Vogue August cover, shot by Josh Olins, isn't quite as striking as the American Vogue cover, but come on how adorable do Emma and Andrew Garfield look together. What I will say is that the purple Louis Vuitton dress that Emma is wearing is such a good colour on her, but I have to be honest I would have preferred it if they had gone for a solo Emma cover – especially if they'd used my favourite floral McQ Alexander McQueen dress that Victoria Justice wore to the Met Gala.
The rest of the editorial is cute, chemistry isn't amazing considering they are an actual couple as well as co-stars in the latest Spider-Man flick, but I am loving the use of Marc Jacobs, Mulberry, Prada, Calvin Klein, and how adorable does Emma look in that Marc by Marc Jacobs hat.
I think I already know the answer – but which cover do you prefer grown-up or teen Vogue???

No. 94,161
1. To perfect an appeal from municipal court, a convicted defendant must file a notice of appeal and an appearance bond.
2. A defendant who is ordered in municipal court to execute an appearance bond must personally sign the bond for it to be effective.
3. Failure to file an appearance bond means that the district court does not have jurisdiction of the case.
4. Whether jurisdiction exists is a question of law over which this court's scope of review is unlimited. If the district court lacked jurisdiction to enter an order, an appellate court does not acquire jurisdiction over the subject matter on appeal.
5. The statutes regulating appearance bonds do not require a defendant to personally sign a journal entry.
6. An exception to jurisdictional requirements may be imposed in cases where the defendant was not informed of his or her right to appeal, was not furnished with an attorney to exercise those rights, or had counsel who failed to perfect and complete the appeal.
Appeal from Ford District Court; VAN Z. HAMPTON, judge. Opinion filed May 5, 2006. Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded with directions.
Laura H. Lewis and Leslie A. Hess, of Dodge City, for appellant.
Terry J. Malone, city attorney, of Williams, Strobel, Malone & Ralph, P.A., of Dodge City, for appellee.
Before RULON, C.J., MARQUARDT and HILL, JJ.
MARQUARDT, J.: Raul Ibarra appeals the district court's dismissal of his appeal from municipal court. We affirm in part, reverse in part, and remand with directions.
In April 2004, Officer Chris Whelchel stopped Ibarra because he believed that Ibarra was driving while under the influence of alcohol (DUI). Officer Whelchel had difficulty communicating with Ibarra, who said that he did not speak much English. There were several times, such as during the instruction phase of the field sobriety testing, that Ibarra did not seem to fully understand the instructions.
Ibarra was placed under arrest and transported to the police station for additional testing. Officer Whelchel testified that he presented Ibarra with the implied consent advisory prior to obtaining a breath sample. Officer Whelchel testified that he did not have "any concerns" about whether Ibarra understood the entire implied consent advisory.
After the breath sample was obtained, Officer Whelchel told Ibarra that he was free to obtain a blood test from the hospital at his own expense. Officer Whelchel testified that Ibarra nodded his head in the affirmative, indicating that he wanted the blood test. However, Officer Whelchel did not believe Ibarra understood what was being said. Officer Whelchel did not transport Ibarra to the hospital; instead, he was taken to the jail. The record on appeal does not show that Ibarra asked about the blood test again.
Ibarra was charged in municipal court with one count of DUI, one count of failure to yield, and one count of driving on the left side of the roadway. He was convicted on all three counts by the municipal court. After sentencing, the municipal court ordered a $750 own recognizance (OR) appearance bond. Ibarra filed a timely notice of appeal to the district court; however, Ibarra did not sign the appearance bond document and never paid any money to the district court.
Prior to trial, Dodge City (City) filed a motion to dismiss, claiming that Ibarra's appeal should be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. The City contended that Ibarra's failure to file his appearance bond meant the district court did not have jurisdiction to consider the appeal. The district court issued an order to show cause to Ibarra as to why his appeal should be retained. Ibarra's counsel responded and admitted that she never filed an appearance bond because she thought since it was an OR bond, Ibarra's appearances at all district court proceedings would be sufficient to maintain the appeal.
The district court ruled that since Ibarra did not sign the journal entry of conviction and did not submit a separate appearance bond, it did not have jurisdiction to consider the merits of his appeal and dismissed it. Ibarra timely appeals.
Ibarra's counsel acknowledges that she did not file an appearance bond when Ibarra appealed to the district court. However, Ibarra claims that he understood the terms of his OR bond, and that his appeal was perfected by filing a timely notice of appeal.
Whether jurisdiction exists is a question of law over which an appellate court's scope of review is unlimited. Mid-Continent Specialists, Inc. v. Capital Homes, 279 Kan. 178, 185, 106 P.3d 483 (2005). If the district court lacked jurisdiction to enter an order, an appellate court does not acquire jurisdiction over the subject matter on appeal. State v. McCoin, 278 Kan. 465, 468, 101 P.3d 1204 (2004).
Appellate procedure in municipal court is governed by K.S.A. 2005 Supp. 22-3609. K.S.A. 2005 Supp. 22-3609(2) reads, in relevant part:
"An appeal to the district court shall be taken by filing, in the district court of the county in which the municipal court is located, a notice of appeal and any appearance bond required by the municipal court. . . . No appeal shall be taken more than 10 days after the date of the judgment appealed from."
K.S.A. 22-2814 through K.S.A. 22-2817 regulate the issuance and performance of appearance bonds. The statutes regulating appearance bonds do not require a defendant to personally sign a journal entry.
We agree with the district court that Ibarra's failure to personally sign the journal entry or OR bond meant that he was not personally required to appear in district court at future proceedings. A defendant who is ordered in municipal court to execute an appearance bond must personally sign the bond for it to be effective.
Ibarra's failure to sign his OR bond supports the district court's decision regarding the court not having jurisdiction in this case. To perfect an appeal from municipal court, a convicted defendant must file a notice of appeal and an appearance bond. City of Overland Park v. Barron, 234 Kan. 522, 526, 672 P.2d 1100 (1983).
On appeal, Ibarra's counsel acknowledges her mistake and asks this court to apply State v. Ortiz, 230 Kan. 733, 640 P.2d 1255 (1982), to this case and find that the principle of fundamental fairness requires the appeal to proceed even in light of counsel's mistake.
In Ortiz, the Kansas Supreme Court adopted an exception to jurisdictional appeal requirements. In the interest of fundamental fairness, an exception to jurisdictional requirements may be imposed in cases where the defendant was not informed of his or her right to appeal, was not furnished with an attorney to exercise those rights, or had counsel who failed to perfect and complete the appeal. 230 Kan. 733, Syl. ¶ 3.
In the instant case, the district court ruled that Ortiz does not apply because it "did not address the issue in the present matter." On appeal, the City urges this court to avoid using the Ortiz exception, noting the differences between a new de novo proceeding in district court and the type of review normally performed by the appellate courts.
The matter currently before the court presents a dilemma, as there is no case law in either Kansas or other jurisdictions that would guide our decision. However, after reviewing trial counsel's affidavit and the arguments of both parties, we believe the Ortiz exception should be applied. Ibarra's counsel freely acknowledged that the lack of jurisdiction was due only to her mistake. Although the technicalities of an appeal to this court differ from a de novo review by the district court, we believe that fundamental fairness required the district court to apply the Ortiz exception.
The district court erred by refusing to accept jurisdiction. We reverse the district court's dismissal of Ibarra's case and remand it for a hearing based on Ibarra's original notice of appeal.
Before the case was dismissed by the district court, Ibarra filed a motion to suppress evidence. Ibarra argued that he requested a blood test but was denied; thus, his breath alcohol test results should be suppressed.
The district court held a hearing on Ibarra's motion. After hearing testimony and the arguments of counsel, the district court concluded that based on videotaped evidence, it did not appear that Ibarra knew he was requesting a blood test. The district court ruled that Ibarra's request was not clearly made, and his motion to suppress was denied.
On appeal, Ibarra directs this court to statutory authority which allows a suspect to request a blood test in a DUI case. He reiterates that he requested a blood test but was denied. He argues that the district court erred when it denied his motion to suppress.
When reviewing a motion to suppress evidence, the appellate court determines whether the factual underpinnings of the district court's decision are supported by substantial competent evidence. However, the ultimate legal conclusion drawn from those facts is a legal question requiring the appellate court to apply a de novo standard of review. The appellate court does not reweigh the evidence. State v. Green, 32 Kan. App. 2d 789, 792, 89 P.3d 940, rev. denied 278 Kan. 849 (2004).
The procedure which forms the basis of this appeal is found at K.S.A. 2005 Supp. 8-1001(f)(I). It is part of the informed consent advisory language which must be read to the suspect prior to the administration of a breath test. It reads:
"[A]fter the completion of the testing, the person has the right to consult with an attorney and may secure additional testing, which, if desired, should be done as soon as possible and is customarily available from medical care facilities and physicians." K.S.A. 2005 Supp. 8-1001(f)(I).
The implied consent advisory in this case was read into the record, and it appears that Ibarra was given the statutory language.
In his appellate brief, Ibarra relies on State v. George, 12 Kan. App. 2d 649, 754 P.2d 460 (1988). In George, the defendant requested an independent blood test, which the officer on duty refused to allow. After reviewing the case, the panel concluded that coupled with the suspect's right to a blood test is a corresponding duty on the part of law enforcement officers not to deny the suspect that right. Law enforcement officers must provide a "reasonable opportunity" to obtain additional testing. 12 Kan. App. 2d at 653. The panel concluded that any evidence which was introduced even though the suspect was denied his right to a blood test was "not competent" and thus inadmissible. 12 Kan. App. 2d at 652, 655. See K.S.A. 8-1004.
The circumstances in George differ greatly from Ibarra's. In George, the suspect clearly requested an independent blood test. In the instant case, Officer Whelchel testified that he did not believe Ibarra understood the question about submitting to a blood test.
Through an interpreter, Ibarra testified at the suppression hearing that he wanted to go to the hospital. However, the transcript shows that Ibarra speaks very little English. A videotape which is contained in the record on appeal that was viewed by the district court supports this observation.
When making findings of fact, the district court essentially chose to believe Officer Whelchel's testimony regarding Ibarra's understanding of English. The fact that the district court believed Officer Whelchel is not a matter this court can review. See State ex rel. Morrison v. Oshman Sporting Goods Co. Kansas, 275 Kan. 763, 775, 69 P.3d 1087 (2003). In addition, the record on appeal supports the district court's conclusion regarding Ibarra's comprehension of the questions posed by Officer Whelchel.
We are not prepared to find that the district court erred by denying Ibarra's motion to suppress. We believe there was sufficient evidence to support the district court's conclusion, and this court will not substitute its judgment for that of the district court.
The trial court's denial of Ibarra's motion to suppress is affirmed. We reverse the municipal appeal dismissal and remand this case to the district court with directions consistent with this opinion.
Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded with directions.

On my third visit to Kauai, it was time to embrace the wet and wild side.
Instead of lolling on the Hawaiian island's delectable beaches, I kayaked down a river into the ocean and zoomed along the wild Na Pali coast aboard an inflatable boat.
Tour the
Na Pali Coast
The Na Pali coast is Kauai's natural crown jewel, a wild and staggeringly scenic 16-mile coastline of no roads, no buildings –nothing but 3,000-foot cliffs and narrow furrowed valleys that plummet to the turbulent ocean. A handful of sea caves and white-sand pocket beaches pierce the rugged shoreline.
Tropical downpours and mist can sweep across this northwest shore of Kauai, preserved in the Na Pali Coast State Wilderness Park. But wait a bit and the sun will poke out again, making rainbows glisten and turning the waterfalls that cascade down cliffs into shimmering skeins.
Truly adventurous visitors can backpack part of the Na Pali coast on the 11-mile (one-way) Kalalau Trail or kayak the whole coast in a marathon day (summer only; winter seas are too fierce).
At the other end of the tour spectrum, big motorized boats cruise the coast on half-day tours, some carrying almost 50 people. Flight-seeing helicopters (so prevalent they've ironically been nicknamed Hawaii's state bird) and even ultralight aircraft soar overhead.
My muscles weren't up for the long kayak trip, and I couldn't get a backpacking permit. So I opted for an adventurous half-day ride along the coast with North Shore Charters aboard a 27-foot boat.
The Zodiac-like boat, powered by two growling, 140-horsepower outboard engines, can hold 14 passengers and surge along at up to 30 mph. We perched on the rubber sides of the open boat, gripping safety ropes when it hit big waves on part of the ride.
Bouncing and getting soaked with spray mean it's not for the faint of heart, the pregnant or anyone with a bad back or neck. But it's an exhilarating way to see the Na Pali coast.
Like many Na Pali boaters, we stopped at Nu'alolo Kai beach to snorkel. Donning masks and fins, we slipped over the sides of the boat into a tropical water world. Convict tang fluttered past, an aptly named yellow fish with black stripes. The blue-gray Hawaiian chub nosed around the coral reef – and us. But it was the lagoon triggerfish I liked best, with its pig-shaped, yellow-streaked snout and wonderful Hawaiian name: Humuhumunukunukuapua'a.
Back on the boat, I practiced pronouncing it – HOO-moo-HOO-moo-NOO-koo-NOO-koo-AH-poo-AH-ah.
I'm still practicing.
Paddle to the sea
Bright-yellow kayaks skimmed along the Hanalei River as it meandered through the jungle-like greenery of Kauai's north shore.
I'd signed up for a guided half-day of kayaking down the river and out into the open waters of Hanalei Bay.
"Don't take the waves sideways," hollered the guide at two first-time kayakers as our group emerged from the river mouth into the bay's waves.
Hanalei Bay stretched around us, a two-mile curve with white sand beaches backed by steep, deeply green mountainsides.
If you've seen the movie "South Pacific," this is Bali Hai country.
All the major Hawaiian islands have a wetter windward side, where the tradewinds blow and drop rain, and a drier leeward side.
On Kauai, the north shore, including the communities of Hanalei and Princeville, is much rainier and more lush than the Poipu Beach resort area on the south coast. The small town of Hanalei gets about 80 inches of rain a year, so expect rain squalls.
Kauai has one of the world's wettest places, Mount Waialeale, in the rugged, remote center of the island. Clouds slam against the 5,148-foot mountain and dump more than 400 inches of rain a year.
NA PALI BOAT TOURS: North Shore Charters offers tours in a rigid-hull inflatable that last 4 to 41/2 hours and depart from Anini beach on Kauai's north shore, just 20 minutes from the start of the Na Pali coast. $140 per adult. 808-828-1379.
•Many other companies offer Na Pali tours – by kayak, motorized catamarans and more. See the website of the Kauai Visitors Bureau, kauaidiscovery.com (click on Activities). The state parks website also lists some tour-boat operators, hawaiistate parks.org/parks/kauai
•Many other tours depart from ports at the south end of Kauai; they have farther to go to Na Pali and some might not cover the whole coast.
RIVER KAYAKING: Kayak Kauai's prices range from $60 per person for the three-hour "Blue Lagoon" river/bay tour with snorkeling to $95 for a five-hour version. The company also offers a popular and family-friendly Wailua River tour. 800-437-3507

Choosing the best cleats for your sporting habits is an important part of getting the right equipment will help prevent injury and improve your performance in the big game.
For soccer or football players, Nike wide cleats should be chosen according to what position you play on the field. Anyone in the goal should choose cleats that offer the utmost traction that allows you to switch directions quickly and never slip. Defensive players should choose Nike cleats that have a strong kick zone for long passes and a moderate amount of traction underneath. Offensive players need the lightest weight cleats that allow for both lateral and forward and back quick movements.

WILMINGTON, Del. - A former police officer who killed his ex-daughter-in-law and another woman at a Delaware courthouse before fatally shooting himself was diagnosed more than 20 years ago with a brain tumor.
The diagnosis was made in 1990 by a neurosurgeon at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia who examined Thomas Matusiewicz (muh-TOO'-suh-wits).
In a letter to another doctor obtained by The Associated Press Wednesday, the neurosurgeon said Matusiewicz had a meningioma about four centimeters deep and about five centimeters in diameter. But the neurosurgeon noted that Matusiewicz was not suffering any symptoms and recommended only that the tumor be monitored to see if it was growing, in which case surgery was recommended.
Matusiewicz's family has said they believe his violent actions last week may have been affected by an untreated brain tumor.

|Boston Celtics player Chris Wilcox
Chris's commitment to this cause began because of a family history of lupus. Two of his aunts died of the autoimmune disease, but the worst blow came when his sister, Tehesia, was diagnosed with lupus at the age of 17, while still a high school senior. Two of his cousins also have the disease.
Tehesia was prompted to get tested for lupus after she started to suffer from aching joints and skin rashes. After her diagnosis, her doctors determined that she also had kidney involvement.
"Lupus had already claimed my aunts' lives, but nothing had prepared me for the sadness of seeing my sister suffer from this mysterious disease," Wilcox says. "That, for me, underscored the need to raise lupus awareness and to someday find a cure."
Tehesia, who says she consistently battles severe musculoskeletal pain and fatigue, says living with the disease is a daily battle for her—but it is one she manages to take in stride because of her family's support.
"My brother has been my rock since the day I learned I had lupus," says Tehesia Wilcox. "Even when Chris was just 10 years old, he was always there for me, asking if I was okay and if I needed anything. Now he uses his celebrity to bring attention to this disease. I am so proud of him, both for the tremendous work he does on the court and for those of us who live with lupus."
Chris Wilcox is involved in several lupus education and fundraising efforts. Each year he organizes the Power Forward to Cure Lupus Golf Outing, an annual charity event that raises funds for lupus research. Last year, he and his wife, Tiffany, offered their support to walkers in Boston at the city's inaugural Walk for Lupus Now™ organized by the Lupus Foundation of America. The walk, the largest of its kind, has been now renamed Walk to End Lupus Now™. The Wilcox's supported Lexi's Lupus Warriors, a team of 50 walkers assembled by Lexi Buswell that raised $13,000 toward lupus. Buswell, 11, was diagnosed with lupus in 2011.
Wilcox, who grew up in Whiteville, North Carolina, is also a supporter of the Lupus Foundation of America's education program, the Help Us Solve the Cruel Mystery™ National Tour, which stopped in the Raleigh area over this past weekend.
In addition to his work with lupus, Wilcox – who says he never misses a chance to make a positive impact on his community—is working to spread awareness about heart disease. During a routine heart screening last year, team doctors discovered that Wilcox had an enlarged aorta. He underwent a complex surgery called the Modified Davids Reimplantation Procedure in March of 2012 and thankfully has made a full recovery. Since his surgery, Wilcox has teamed up with the American Heart Association to raise awareness about the importance of heart screenings and overall heart health.
"It's important to keep pushing for change in the right direction," Wilcox says. "Great things happen when you keep working and getting yourself better."

OAKLAND – The sweat was still dripping off of Bob Myers' smiling face long after his Golden State Warriors had survived this slug-fest.
The 38-year-old general manager stood in the hallway at Oracle Arena after his team's 92-88 win in Game 6 over the Denver Nuggets, still trying to process those frantic final minutes and figure out how the Warriors managed to move on to face the San Antonio Spurs in the second round. It didn't matter anymore, of course - the 10 fourth-quarter turnovers that left this rabid crowd enraged as an 18-point lead was cut to four in less than five minutes, the surreal sequence of bad choices and poise-less play that threatened everything they had worked for. This was no small victory in these parts, where playoff appearances come once every couple of decades and one of the league's most loyal fanbases was yearning for a change.
This certainly qualifies.
"The greatest joy for me is to reward this fan-base," Myers, a former agent and native of nearby Alamo who is in his second season at the front-office helm, told USA TODAY Sports afterward. "They deserve to see a successful product. They deserve to see playoff games. To get to the playoffs was meaningful personally, because this is the team I grew up rooting for and wanted to see get back on track."
But that finish. That wild, helter-skelter finish.
"At the end of the game, what I kept thinking was, 'You came this far, for the team more than me, and the coaching staff and the trainers, to come that far and not complete it would have been very, very hard," Myers said. "I'm happy it worked out the way it did."
BOX SCORE: Warriors 92, Nuggets 88
PREVIEW: Spurs-Warriors in Round 2
Playing in what was the franchise's second playoff appearance in 19 seasons, the Warriors made the mistake of easing off the gas pedal with nine minutes left in the fourth quarter. They dribbled out possessions with one eye always on the slow-ticking clock, passed up open shots and got careless with the ball while the listless Nuggets finally came to life. Denver went on a 13-0 run to cut the lead to 80-75 before the Warriors finally showed some pulse, then nearly pulled it during a wild final minute in which Golden State seemed to try every conceivable way to give the game away.
"It's hard to put (what happened late) into words," Warriors guard Stephen Curry said. "When the first two turnovers happened, it's like, 'Alright, we'll get it right.' Two turnovers happened, (and) they started making threes. The lead starts to dwindle down.
"Coach (Mark Jackson) told us, 'Hey, we got this 18-point lead, we've played well the whole game (and) we're going to figure out how to win this game, to get out of here. That's what we did."
Curry had 22 points on 6 of 14 shooting and eight assists, but it was Golden State center Andrew Bogut that stole his spotlight with season highs in points (14) and rebounds (21) while adding four blocks. The center who was traded here from Milwaukee last season saw his season go from miserable to joyous in ways that he never could have imagined.
Limited to just 32 games this season after his left ankle surgery in late April 2012 that was only supposed to sideline him through October, Bogut was a forceful presence on the defensive end and a key part of the Warriors offense that needed someone counter the Nuggets team that is so proficient on the offensive glass. Yet while speaking to just two reporters in a hallway inside the arena afterward, Bogut revealed that he nearly missed out on Game 6 altogether because of pain in the ankle that persists but took a pain-killing injection for the first time in his eight-year career that saved his day.
"I almost didn't play today, to be honest with you," Bogut said. "I took a shot before the game, the first one I've taken all year, that I've ever taken in my career. It got me over the line, thankfully. I'm very, very, good now, but I'm not looking forward to waking up in the morning."
Bogut, the Australian who has never been shy about his penchant for pub hopping, said he abstained from drinking this season because beer would cause his ankle to swell. As the Warriors headed out to celebrate their win, he planned on joining them without joining in.
"A couple of the guys are going out, but I just don't want to risk (drinking) and wake up in the morning and then have an issue," he said. "I'll stick to my sparkling water with lemon."
The Nuggets, who won a franchise-record 57 games this season but played in the postseason without small forward Danilo Gallinari, were led by small forward Andre Iguodala (24 points, nine rebounds and six assists). But they were undone by a season-low 34.7% shooting night in which point guard Ty Lawson hit just 7 of 21 shots, forward Wilson Chandler was 5 of 17 and backup point guard Andre Miller was 3 of 12.
"When you miss shot after shot after shot - pretty good shots, I thought, most of the time -it creates frustration," Nuggets coach George Karl said. "It creates an edge we had to fight through. As I said, we did, but the three-ball got loose and we couldn't make a shot to build any confidence or rhythm."
RISE OF MOBILE BIG MEN: Bogut among new-look bigs
After trailing 41-24 in the second quarter, the Warriors surged ahead during a third quarter that bore some resemblance to the Game 4 game here in which Curry scored 19 points in a span of four minutes. He wasn't quite that unconscious as Golden State took a 73-62 lead, but he was close.
He scored 14 points in the quarter while burying four three-pointers with his vintage silky style – a quick-trigger stepback from the left wing gave the Warriors their first lead since the opening minutes, a 26-footer after his pump-fake sent Ty Lawson flying by, a right-wing three and another from a nearby spot that came off an airborne touch pass from Draymond Green (16 points, 10 rebounds) that belied his rookie status. But Curry had his playmaking hat on, too, finding Bogut for a dunk after losing Lawson with a crossover and behind-the-back move in what was one of his three assists in the period.
As if the Warriors fans needed any more incentive to reenact the 2007 decibel-levels that became local legend during the Warriors' upset of top-seeded Dallas in the 'We Believe' first round, the surprising appearance of injured forward David Lee in the team's layup line did ignited the already-raucous crowd. Fans standing courtside looked on with jaws dropped at the sight of Lee in uniform again, many of them muttering about 'Willis Reed' and then, inevitably, having to explain the reference to the younger ones in their presence. Lee had suffered a torn right hip flexor in Game 1 and was expected to miss the rest of the season. He only played for one minute.
Like everyone else on the Warriors' end, Lee agonized over that final stretch.
"We were up 18, and I was celebrating, having a ball, and then it seems like two minutes later all of a sudden it's a single-digit game and every possession mattered again," Lee said. "Give them credit for not giving up, but I was just happy we found a way….I'm happy it ended the way it did, but man it got my heart rate up."
He wasn't alone in that regard.
Warriors owner Joe Lacob, who headed the group that bought the team in 2010, said half-jokingly that he had heart palpitations during the game.
"Honestly, it was a fantastic, great experience," Lacob told USA TODAY Sports. "What I love about it is it was all team - business side, basketball side. Everybody is on the same page in this organization."
DAVID LEE: Surprising return
But Lee's presence didn't exactly kickstart the Warriors, who trailed 25-21 after the first quarter, in large part, because the Nuggets attacked the glass with a dominant desperation. They grabbed six offensive boards in the first quarter alone (five from Kenneth Faried and JaVale McGee) and had eight second-chance points, overcoming an 11-of-27 shooting start while seeming to negate whatever emotional lift Lee's presence might have provided. Lee entered for the first time with 2:27 left in the period, missed an 18-footer, grabbed a rebound and then departed 92 seconds later.
The Nuggets' wax job on the glass came despite the fact that Warriors coach Mark Jackson opted to go big with his starting lineup this time around. He started forward Carl Landy, thereby eliminating the three-guard starting lineup (Curry, Jarrett Jack and Klay Thompson) that had been in place since after Lee was injured in Game 1.
Denver led 42-40 at the half, when it seemed as if the best roller derby team of the two would be the one with the edge. Loose balls turned into breaks, tipped rebounds led to inexcusable putbacks, and the crowd that ended each and every sentence with an exclamation point rode this roller coaster of sloppy play with no shortage of playoff passion.
The rim wasn't kind to either side, as the Nuggets shots just 34% (18 of 53), while the Warriors were just 38.5% from the field (15 of 39). Curry and Thompson, who Warriors coach Mark Jackson had deemed the best shooting backcourt in NBA history after Game 2, were a combined 2 of 13. Iguodala, whose 25-point, 12-rebound and seven assist outing in Game 5 had been the elixir that Denver needed in Game 5, was in a stupor as he misfired on six of seven shots and grabbed just two rebounds. Nuggets Andre Miller and Wilson Chandler were a combined 4 of 16 from the field before the break.

Los Angeles Times
The good staffers of Vice President Selina Meyer's office had been trying to put out a fire all afternoon when their slightly discombobulated leader, played by Julia Louis-Dreyfus, turned up on the set of HBO's "Veep."
Before she stepped into character, however, Louis-Dreyfus had a question.
"Did you talk to the actors about the script changes?" she said to the show's creator and all-around head coach, Armando Iannucci, as he sat behind a monitor watching takes. He nodded. "Good," she smiled, then stepped in front of the camera, where in the next scene her character took hold of a developing crisis — and made it much worse.
Over a 30-year television career, Louis-Dreyfus has played some rich parts. But she's never juggled skills likes she has in "Veep" — physical and verbal comedy, broad humor and political satire and, maybe most important, acting and producing.
When the half-hour comedy debuts its second season today, it will mark not only the beginning of the next phase of droll British humor on U.S. airwaves but the latest chapter for Louis-Dreyfus. As someone who's "not only the quarterback but the one who can call the audibles," in the words of castmate Reid Scott, Louis-Dreyfus, 52, will often improv new material, guide cast members and offer suggestions to writers.
"It does feel like I can do more than I've done before," said the actress, who won an Emmy for her performance in 2012, during a break between scenes. "This is a comedic gold mine. Selina has ambition, and that ambition is thwarted. That allows for a lot of opportunities."
The performers are making the most of them. Over its eight-episode first season, audiences were introduced not only to the manic, self-absorbed Selina but to her dueling senior staffers, Amy and Dan (Anna Chlumsky and Scott), longtime sad-sack press hack Mike (Matthew Walsh) and sycophantic, Purell-equipped assistant Gary (Tony Hale).
At its essence, the show examines a simple comedic premise: What happens when people wear the vestments of power without possessing any of the real thing?
It does this by combining some diverse sensibilities. Behind the show are a group of Iannucci-led egghead British writers (the kind who are proud of coining a word for the Oxford English Dictionary, as scribe Tony Roche did), veteran Hollywood producers and actors and even the political pundit Frank Rich, who serves as a producer and adviser.
The new season continues the series' tradition of a skewed-eyed view of Beltway life — a press release must be, as a character says in one early episode, the "Gettysburg Address of tightrope-walking, say-nothing" hogwash — only this time with a lot more plot turns.
Selina is given a whiff of power, particularly in the area of foreign affairs. It's just enough influence to make us — and her — realize how little she has (think diplomatic missions to Helsinki, Finland).
"Getting a little bit of power is always funnier than not having any at all," Iannucci said dryly.
Louis-Dreyfus, who signed on the year after her CBS sitcom "The New Adventures of Old Christine" ended its run in 2010, has assembled more than a bit of clout herself. It's rare for an actor to have three bona fide TV hits. It's rarer still for a principal member of the "Seinfeld" cast, all of whom besides Dreyfus have failed to carry a new series.
To do that, she calls upon familiar strengths. There is the physical aspect, the "Get out" pushes Louis-Dreyfus made famous on "Seinfeld," now upped to 11. On "Veep," the actress is often pointing her finger, running barefoot through the Old Executive Office Building or playing a contentious Bert and Ernie game with smug string bean Jonah (Timothy Simons), unwelcome messenger from the White House.
"Maybe it's because I'm short and I've had to push my way through a lot in life," she said, possibly only half-joking. She projects the air of a woman who's more contained than the exuberant characters she tends to play, though there is often a joke playing on her lips, waiting for the right moment to get out.

Blogs buzz over Biden-Clinton swap
Who knew the right loved Hillary so much? Conservative bloggers are having a hard time figuring out which they are enjoying more — Vice President Joe Biden's latest gaffes or speculation that Hillary Clinton could replace him on the ticket.
"He's in North Carolina when he's in Virginia. He thinks Paul Ryan is governor of one of the states numbered 51 through 57. He's not even clear in which century he's living. He's Joe Biden and he's one heartbeat away from the Presidency. Or will he be for long?" Hot Air's Ed Morrissey mused. "The week's misadventures for Sheriff Joe have some wondering whether he's medically qualified for the job, and speculation rising anew that the possessor of that hygienic heartbeat may want to find someone else to square off against Paul Ryan in the October debates."
Story Continued Below
( Also on POLITICO: Ryan: Biden is 'desperate')
Choosing Clinton, Morrissey continued, "might be exactly what Obama needs." But Morrissey doesn't think it'll happen since former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin upped the ante and told Fox News she thinks Biden should be canned. "Obama wouldn't dare take her advice," he wrote.
"Biden's erratic statements certainly should make Team Obama nervous," wrote the National Review's John Fund. "I've no doubt that some Democratic strategists would love for Biden and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to swap jobs and bolster the Democratic ticket with a little Clinton magic. But there's no evidence that Hillary would take that deal. If she wants to run, she is already the front-runner for the 2016 Democratic nomination and would gain no advantage by being yoked to Obama, her old adversary, for the next three months if they lost or the next four years if they won."
PJ Media's Roger Kimball speculated that Democrats are growing weary of Biden, especially this week. "Their man has clearly let them down and the inadvertent comedy of Joe Biden screaming that Republicans are going to 'put y'all back in chains' isn't helping."
( Also on POLITICO: McCain: Would be 'wise' to can Biden)
The Chicago Tribune's John Kass wrote, "Is it too late for President Barack Obama to pick up the phone, call Hillary Rodham Clinton and dump Vice President Joe Biden for playing the race card against Republican Mitt Romney? Yep. It's probably too late, y'all. For years, Biden has suffered from a terrible affliction called Verpes (pronounced Vur-peez), the slang name for verbal herpes, from the Latin herpius verbulus. It comes from repeatedly taking your shoe with your foot still inside it and shoving it all the way into your mouth so that it smacks that little punching bag thing back there called a uvula."
