The EuroChallenge resumed on Tuesday clearly influenced by the winter break, as the opening day of the Last 16 saw more action than a toy store at Christmas.
It came complete with the end of an unbeaten run in the competition, an unexpected overtime drama in the televised Game of the Week, and a breakout performance by a 17-year-old prodigy.
Only two teams, Russia's Krasnye Krylia and Germany's EWE Baskets Oldenburg, still stand undefeated after seven weeks of action in total since the Regular Season started.
|Jermaine Flowers spent all 40 minutes on the floor, helping Kataja win with his all-round performance
When BK Ventspils went up 40-23 over Joensuun Kataja midway through the second quarter of their Group I clash in Finland, the natural order of things seemed to have been restored.
The Latvians had a 19-game winning streak, that spanned over three months, snapped on the weekend in the Baltic League, but the comfy 17-point advantage could only mean the brief parenthesis was closed and they would extend their undefeated run in the EuroChallenge to seven games.
Only the hosts thought otherwise. Kataja stormed back in the third quarter, covered the gap and even took a two-point lead at the end of that period.
They kept their cool enough to make some decisive free throws in the clutch and hold on for an 80-78 victory that left the Latvians wondering what has changed so dramatically in the space of just three days.
Finnish international Petri Virtanen went 8-of-13 from the field and led all scorers with 22 points while an all-round display by Jermaine Flowers was also key for the winners, as the forward finished with 15 points, seven rebounds, five assists and six steals.
Pinar Karsiyka also made a winning start to the Last 16 at home, although in substantially less eventful fashion as they routed Gaz Metan Medias 89-59 behind 28 points from point guard Robert Dixon.
|The fans in Szolnok had reason to celebrate, as the home team clinched an important overtime victory
Szolnoki Olaj showed character and determination in a testing period for the club to claim an unlikely 75-71 win over French league leaders BCM Gravelines Dunkerque at home on Tuesday.
The hosts started off well and led early but their formidable opponents started chipping away at the lead after the half-time interval and Kennedy Winston drained a three-pointer to make it 63-56 with 2:02 left on the clock.
Spurred on by their rowdy fans though, three different Szolnoki players scored from behind the three-point arc on successive possessions while only Yannick Bokolo hit the target for BCM to leave the scores tied at 65.
The French side missed two chances to win the game in the last 12 seconds of regulation and, once it went into overtime, Szolnoki would not let this one slip and started with a 7-2 run that effectively sealed the victory.
Big man Marton Bader was back to his usual best and led the hosts with a 20-point, 12-rebound double-double while another Hungarian international, Akos Horvath, contributed 16 points, five rebounds and three assists to the cause.
The other game in the group, between Paris Levallois and Hapoel Unet Holon was something of an anti-climax in that Holon center Franklin Hassell did not travel to France and the much expected face-off with the hosts' Sean May never took place.
Holon's Lawrence Hill did so well in trying to cover his team-mate's absence that he finished with 26 points and 14 rebounds to earn MVP honours this week.
May however collected another double-double, of 16 points and 14 rebounds, Jawad Williams scored 21 points and John Cox 20 for the Parisians and the home team took a comfortable 83-66 victory.
|Kenan Sipahi celebrates his game winner with team-mate Can Altintig
Kenan Sipahi does not turn 18 until May but he can already include a game-winning buzzer-beater in his short but very promising curriculum.
The young guard received a pass from Steven Burrt and didn't even blink as he sunk the three-pointer that gave Tofas Bursa a 93-90 win over Khimik Yuzhne at the death on Tuesday.
In truth, the Turkish side could have wrapped it up earlier, as they were playing at home and had built a 15-point lead already in the second quarter.
Khimik though threw everything they had at their hosts with Suad Sehovic leading the charge.
The Montenegrin international hit five of seven shots from behind the arc and grabbed a game-high nine rebounds and the Ukrainian side had already balanced proceedings by the start of the fourth quarter.
The guests even took the lead on as many as four occasions in a back-and-forth final stanza and tied the scores at 90 when Tofas called a time-out 15 seconds from time and then returned to the court to trust the youngest player with the most important shot in the game.
Burrt led all Tofas scorers with 20 points and Chinemelu Elonu contributed 13 points and eight rebounds for the winners.
Sipahi meanwhile finished with eight points, including the game-winner and Sehovic had 21 for Khimik in a losing effort.
In the other game in the group, in Russia, Krasnye Krylia saw Andre Smith deliver his best performance in any competition since he returned from injury last month.
The power forward picked up a double-double of 28 points and 12 rebound and the hosts pulled away in the fourth quarter to overcome Norrköping Dolphins 93-75.
Swedish international Joakim Kjellbom, who joined the Dolphins over the winter break, had 18 points in defeat.
|Jonas Wohlfarth-Bottermann grabbed a game-high 11 rebounds and scored nine points for Bonn
The two German teams in the group dominated their respective clashes, but the 65-60 victory of Telekom Baskets Bonn at Okapi Aalstar made more headlines as it came on the road.
There was little, if anything, between the two opponents in Belgium as the lead changed hands as many as 29 times throughout the night and none of the two led by more than five points at any time.
Bonn clinched the precious away victory mostly because they kept their composure in the clutch and sunk four vital free-throws, while the hosts wasted their last two possessions.
Eight players on the German side wrote their name on the scoresheet, with Kyle Weems leading all Bonn scorers with 15 points and adding five rebounds and three assists.
Benas Veikalas, who shot less but more efficiently than his American team-mate (50 percent from the floor), contributed 12 points, two assists and two rebounds.
Meanwhile back in Germany, EWE Baskets Oldenburg did not captivate their 1,400 fans with their performance but started strong and made the most of the home-court advantage to secure a drama-less, but no less important for it, 74-64 victory over Tsmoki-Minsk.
Five players scored in double digits for Oldenburg who, as usual, rotated a lot.
Christopher Kramer however was the one who stood out on Tuesday with his well-rounded contribution, as he finished with 18 points, seven rebounds, four assists and three steals.
Rickey Paulding was also on a good night for the winning side, with 16 points, four rebounds and two assists.
Aliaksei Lashkevich went 7-of-9 from the floor to score 17 points and added eight rebounds in a losing effort, while new signing Vidas Ginevicius had three points on his season debut with Minsk.

In a lot of ways, it is completely unnecessary and unfair to compare college basketball to the NBA. As similar as the two sports may be, there are enough differences between the two that you might as well compare apples to oranges.
For these reasons, it is far more common for a person to love college basketball and hate the NBA than it is for a person to love the NFL and hate college football.
For one thing, players in the NBA are so much bigger, stronger, and faster that it's almost like comparing JV and Varsity. Additionally, the longer NBA 3-point line creates more space for the professionals and makes it much more difficult to guard individuals one on one. And the shot clocks are different, the jump ball rules are different, and even the traveling rules are different.
The most important difference, however, is that the college game is actually far more physical OFF the ball than the NBA game.
David Stern and the NBA higher ups want the their wonderful athletes to play fluidly and beautifully. Because of that, defenders aren't allowed to simply grab or bump any offensive player that dares to run through the lane. Duke and Butler fans know very well that the college game is hugely different in this aspect.
Interestingly enough, this difference between college and NBA basketball may be one of the larger, less-recognized reasons that the 2004 USA Olympic Basketball team didn't bring home the gold.
The international game is much more similar to college than it is the NBA, and you could tell that the NBA guys in 2004 simply weren't used to being grabbed, bumped, scratched, and pulled at every single turn.
Insert Coach K into the equation a few years later, and all of the sudden, Kobe, Westbrook, and everyone else is hounding Spain all over the floor. Coach K's aggressive and physical defensive style that he teaches at Duke was in a lot of ways directly responsible for the United States bringing home the gold.
All of these differences make the games hard to compare. When we do compare them, we end up treating people unfairly.
When Tyler Hansbrough was manhandling the ACC, there was little that opposing fans could do to disparage him. That is, unless they started spouting off about how bad he would be as a pro. Of course, this became one of the biggest story lines of his senior year.
Rather than appreciate a guy who worked hard, maximized his talent, and scored at will in the college game, the media began to criticize his "short arms," lack of athleticism, and inability to be as good at the next level.
Were they right? Of course they were. But why should that matter?
Tyler Hansbrough was about as dominant as you could possibly be at the college level. Why did it matter that he would likely be a perennial bench player at the next level?
Other players, like Paul George, simply aren't made for the college game. As soon as the floor opened up and individual skills mattered more at the next level, George began to blossom – and will undoubtedly become a better pro than he ever was in college.
This naturally brings us to Rick Barnes – a coach who has gotten out of the Sweet Sixteen exactly twice while at Texas even though he has arguably had one of the greatest collections of talent anywhere.
This got me thinking: which coaches have gotten the LEAST out of their talent? Which schools really HAVE put out the best pros in the last fifteen or so years? Are the stereotypes still true?
The old adage is that Duke players are much better collegians, but UNC players become NBA stars. Of course when you compare Michael Jordan, James Worthy, Vince Carter, and Rasheed Wallace to Christian Laettner, Danny Ferry, and other Duke busts, the stereotypes seem to be true. But after some deep research, the stereotypes for those schools seem to have been reversed as of late.
So, what school has put out the most talent? Let's rank the schools from 10 to 1. Tomorrow, we will enjoy a March Madness-style tournament and see who would come out on top. (Update: Click here to see the final rosters and Jon's bracket.)
Important note: this is only for CURRENT players…I don't care how good Vince Carter may have been once…how good is he now?
[Editor's note: In this post, Jon leaves out Wake Forest. Upon further reflection, he not only includes them, but has them all the way up at #4.]
#10 – Butler Bulldogs
Gordon Hayward and Shelvin Mack.
This may seem like shameless homerism, and it is. But trust me, there are really only nine legitimate teams…and every list has to feature ten items, right?
Plus, I'm pretty sure that Brad Stevens could figure out some way to keep any game close … even if he only had two players.
#9 – Ohio State
- Kosta Koufos
- Jared Sullinger
- Daequan C0ok
- Evan Turner
- Mike Conley
- Byron Mullins
This team is weak and lacks any true stars. However, it is still quite an accomplishment to have six legitimate players in the NBA at once.
If Greg Oden and Michael Redd could make it back from injury and actually be competent, this team might have a legitimate eight man rotation.
#8 – North Carolina
- Tyler Zeller
- Tyler Hansbrough
- Danny Green
- Harrison Barnes
- Ty Lawson
- Ed Davis
- Rasheed Wallace
- Jerry Stackhouse
- Vince Carter
- Marvin Williams
- Raymond Felton
- John Henson
You probably thought they would be much higher, didn't you? Well, it's definitely possible for them to move up, especially if Ed Davis, Harrison Barnes, and John Henson continue to show improvements and grow into the players they could possibly be. Barnes could even one day add some star power to the group that is deep but lacks any All-Star level talent.
As it is currently, however, Ty Lawson is the only guy on the entire team that scares you; and in the NBA, a team without a real star is a team without a real future.
#7 – Kansas
- Nick Collison
- Thomas Robinson
- Paul Pierce
- Kirk Hinrich
- Mario Chalmers
- Darrell Arthur
- Drew Gooden
- Marcus Morris
- Markieff Morris
- Brandon Rush
- Josh Selby
While Kansas is not quite as deep as UNC, they make up for it with legitimate size and star power.
Those who thought Paul Pierce was washed up last season have clearly been surprised by his All-Star level play this season. Chalmers and Hinrich are legitimate starters in the NBA, and Thomas Robinson adds HUGE upside at the 4.
Collison, Arthur, and Brandon Rush are all solid role players for their current teams and would do whatever it takes to make this Kansas team roll.
- Andre Drummond
- Emeka Okafor
- Rudy Gay
- Ray Allen
- Kemba Walker
- Caron Butler
- Ben Gordon
- Rip Hamilton
- Hasheem Thabeet
- Jeremy Lamb
This team is nearly a mirror image of Kansas, with the sole exception that it's star small forward, Rudy Gay, is at the peak of his powers rather than the tail end of his prime like Pierce.
Drummond and Okafor add legitimate size, even if they will never scare you from the free throw line. Allen will still space the floor better than anyone, and Walker would be a legitimate scorer if he ever had teammates.
Add Caron Butler, Ben Gordon, and Rip Hamilton off the bench, and this team would scare a lot of teams.
#5 – Duke
- Elton Brand
- Carlos Boozer
- Luol Deng
- JJ Redick
- Kyrie Irving
- Shane Battier
- Chris Duhon
- Mike Dunleavy
- Gerald Henderson
- Grant Hill
- Austin Rivers
- Kyle Singler
Gone are the days when Dukies didn't make good pros.
Kyrie Irving is already a top ten or fifteen player in the league, and he is a better point guard than anyone not named Chris Paul or Russell Westbrook.
JJ Redick has quietly become a starting guard in Orlando that teams all over the NBA are trying to trade for as we speak. Deng is a fringe All Star, and while a front line of Boozer and Brand would be small and slightly washed up, they would both space the floor enough to make this team terrifying to defend.
Off the bench, this team has legitimate pieces that would fill in nicely. Battier and Hill are still defensive stoppers, Dunleavy is a fantastic shooter, and Henderson and Rivers would be instant offense off the bench.
The fact is, every single one of these players plays legitimate minutes on his current NBA team, and as much as you might hate Duke, this team would be solid from top to bottom.
#4 – Florida
- Joakim Noah
- Al Horford
- David Lee
- Corey Brewer
- Chandler Parsons
- Marreese Speights
- Bradley Beal
- Mike Miller
- Udonis Haslem
Let's just call this team "Big Man U" from now on.
Maybe this team wouldn't make any sense on paper. Maybe this team wouldn't be able to advance the ball past half court. Maybe this team would have more floor spacing problems than any team in basketball history.
But maybe, just maybe, this team would be unguardable. And my could they defend. What if the Gators could play zone? A back line of Noah, Horford, and Lee would be impenetrable while Brewer and Parsons would add a length up top that the Syracuse Orange would be jealous of.
On offense, Lee and Parsons are both much better shooters than people think, and there would be mismatches all over the place. Noah would be sprinting around setting screens, and other teams would be exhausted midway through the third quarter. If they absolutely NEEDED shooting, they could bring Beal and Miller off the bench to try and catch fire.
Even though they don't make 100% sense on paper, this is the team that nobody wants to play come March.
- Kevin Love
- Matt Barnes
- Aaron Afflalo
- Russell Westbrook
- Jrue Holiday
- Darren Collison
- Luc Mbah a Moute
- Trevor Ariza
- Baron Davis
Maybe this team should be higher. Regardless, this team is stacked and terrifyingly athletic.
Westbrook is a top 5 player in the league, and Chris Paul remains the only PG you'd rather have than him. ove is the league's best rebounder when healthy, and he is also a prolific scorer.
While you weren't looking, Jrue Holiday has developed into one of the best PGs in the league and could make a legitimate case of being the All Star starter for the Eastern conference. Afflalo and Barnes are plus defenders and would space the floor for Holiday and Westbrook.
Off the bench, this team just keeps coming at you with athleticism, defense, and aggression. Collison and Mbah a Moute are about as annoying as it gets on the defensive end. They would give opposing benches nightmares.
Really, this team only has one problem – it's coached by Ben Howland.
#2 – Texas
- LaMarcus Aldridge
- Tristan Thompson
- Kevin Durant
- Avery Bradley
- DJ Augustin
- Daniel Gibson
- Maurice Evans
- Jordan Hamilton
- PJ Tucker
- Dexter Pittman
- Cory Joseph
This team is not as deep as Florida, Duke, or even UCLA. Fortunately for them, they have Kevin Durant – the second greatest player in the world and possibly one of the greatest scorers ever.
Even better, if you look at this team as a puzzle, it actually makes sense.
Aldridge gives them one of the top 5 post presences in the league down low. Thompson is a hustler who would rebound and set screen after screen for Durant. Bradley would make it his personal mission to shut down the other team's best wing every single game, and he's able to do so. Augustin, while not a scoring threat, would do a decent job of getting everyone involved.
The bench is loaded with role players that are willing to do whatever is asked of them. And oh yeah, they still have Kevin Durant. (But oh yeah…they still have Rick Barnes.)
#1 – Kentucky
- DeMarcus Cousins
- Anthony Davis
- Michael Kidd-Gilchrist
- John Wall
- Rajon Rondo
- Eric Bledsoe
- Tayshaun Prince
- Patrick Patterson
- Jodi Meeks
- Chuck Hayes
- Doron Lamb
- Keith Bogans
This team would absolutely lead the league in bricked wide-open jump shots, technical fouls, aspirin taken by their coach during a game, and unintentional comedy.
However, when all that washed away, you would still have a terrifyingly athletic team with legitimate stars, size, and depth.
Cousins, for all of his cons, tries hard every night and is already a top five rebounder and post scorer. Davis is a star in the making, Kidd-Gilchrist is already a defensive stopper, and Wall is one of the five most athletic people in the league.
Rondo would run the show, and even though he would refuse to shoot late in games, it probably wouldn't matter.
Eric Bledsoe is by far the best bench player in this tournament, and the Wildcats probably don't have a single weakness other than outside shooting. It would definitely be possible for them to lose in March Madness – one poor shooting performance would definitely derail their hopes – but in a best of seven series, there is no doubt that they would eventually wear down their opponent and come away with the win.
So, who you vote as #1?
[Note: The poll includes Wake Forest, who Jon left out in this post, but discussed here.]
Bonus: High Schoolers
- Dwight Howard
- Kevin Garnett
- LeBron James
- Kobe Bryant
- Brandon Jennings
- Tyson Chandler
- Josh Smith
- JR Smith
- Andrew Bynum
- Lou Williams
- Monta Ellis
- Amare Stoudemire
- Al Jefferson
Uh…nevermind. I think we all know who would win this tournament.
Which of the 10 teams above do you think would be the best? Which would win a March Madness-style tournament?

Potala, which was originally constructed in 637 by Songtsen Gampo, the first king of the united Tibet, and later expanded and served as the winter residence of the Dalai Lamas as well as the religious-political nexus of traditional Tibet. The crowds of pilgrims, innumerable magnificent murals, Buddhist statues, scriptures and rare treasure altogether create a dense religious and art atmosphere that impresses every visitor. In the afternoon visit Jokhang monastery, the center of the Tibetan Buddhism and the sacred land of Buddhist followers where innumerable pilgrims come for worship everyday. The temple, built in 647, is the earliest wood-and-masonry structure still existing in Tibet. Walk on the Barkhor street surrounding Jokhang, a big free market with its prolific stalls for selling local specialties.
Drepung monastery the sacred land of Gelukpa sect., which was created in 1416 and the second, third and fourth Dalai Lama once resided in. In the afternoon visit Sera monastery, which was created in 1419 and has always been an important Buddhist seminary. As rose are planted everywhere in the monastery, it is also called "the court of wild rose". Today still 200 lamas live in there.
On the way Lhasa for Shigatse via Gyantse you will drive to the holy lake of Yamdrok Tso (4441 m), one of the three holy lakes in Tibet and the largest habitat of water fowls in south Tibet. There enjoy the unforgettable vista of its spear-shaped expanse of turquoise water, with the mysterious Mt. Donang Sangwari (5,340m) on the peninsula beyond, and the snow peaks of Nojin Gangzang (7,191m) in the distance. The lake and the Yarlung-Tsangpo River (3570) is separated by a mountain and the shortest distance between them is only 6 kilometers. The 800m height difference contributes a rich water resources to this region. Many Tibetans believe that the life of Tibet will no longer continue when the lake dries up.
There in Shigatse visit Tashilunpo monastery, the seat of the Panchen Lama built in 1447 and one of the six grand monasteries in Tibet. The monastery houses a giant statue of the Maitreya Buddha, the biggest gilded statue of Maitreya (Bouddha of the future) in China, and a tomb of the 4th Panchen Lama containing masses of jewels and gold. In Tibet Buddhism, Panchen Lama is the reincarnation of Maitreya Buddha. Supposed to get up early, have a chance of listening to the morning prayers in the Grand Hall of Tashilhumo Monastery, and seeing lamas rushing around pouring yak butter tea into endless rows of cups.

|BLMA have the chance to punch early a ticket to the Eighth-Finals
A number of EuroCup Women teams head into this week's action knowing they can potentially book their spot in the Eighth-Finals.
In Group A, unbeaten Basket Lattes Montpellier Agglomeration will do exactly that - if they find a fourth successive win when they entertain CSM Satu Mare. The French side is yet to lose in the competition or domestically for that matter, in what is turning out to be a super season so far.
Whilst Chevakata can't quite clinch their place with a road win at SISU, they will still have one foot in the next phase of the tournament should they complete this mission. They actually played fellow EuroCup Women participants Dynamo-GUVD in the Russian League over the weekend but were just edged out 68-65 in a really exciting match-up.
Group B sees the two best-placed clubs go head-to-head with TED Ankara travelling to table-topping Hainaut Basket and looking to avenge their opening night blowout when they were routed 82-51 in the Turkish capital.
If the French hosts manage to do the double over their opponent, then they will punch their ticket to the last sixteen of the competition and that will be some welcome good news in light of their perilous position in the French League which has produced only a solitary win in eight generally miserable games.
They are however the best rebounding team around right now in EuroCup Women and so TED Ankara will have to try and match them on the glass or at least prevent them from getting the near 50 rebounds per game they are currently averaging. And, with Makbule Amachree and Marcedes Walker on board, the visitors may well be capable of doing so.
Lotto Young Cats were mauled last week in France and they must try to bounce back with a victory against Olimpia. Although having already beaten the team from Grodno by a point on opening night, they may be preparing for something of a backlash.
Top Teams To Clash in Group C
The top two teams in Group C also go head-to-head with Tarbes welcoming Mersin whom they beat by twelve points earlier in the campaign. Mersin escaped from Russia with a narrow win against Spartak Noginsk last week, and victory in France would take them level with their rivals on a 3-1 record.
Belfius Namur will be hoping they collect an overdue first win of the season at home to Spartak Noginsk who may not be able to afford a third loss if they want to progress. This makes this game something of a do-or-die in many respects with the hosts no doubt relying heavily on Julie Wojta again since the swingman is averaging a near season double-double of 17.3 points and 9.0 rebounds per game.
Group D has been one of the most entertaining of the season so far and much of the intrigue has centred on whether TSV Wasserburg can split the favourites to progress who remain Nantes and Dynamo-GUVD.
This week, the ambitious German club heads to France knowing defeat would leave them 1-3 and with their hopes hanging by a thread - especially if Dynamo GUVD despatch BBC-Sint-Katleijne-Waver as anticipated.
Nantes beat Hainaut Basket in the French League last Saturday and are looking good with a 6-2 domestic record. Unbeaten so far in the EuroCup Women, Sarah Michel has been particularly impressive, averaging an efficient 9.3 points per game but also conjuring up 5.0 assists and 3.0 steals per game.
Balanced Scenario In Group E
There is no better balanced scenario than in Group E where Telge Basket, Horizont and last years' finallist Kayseri Kaski spor all have one win and one loss to their name. This will all change on Wednesday when Kayseri welcome Horizont, looking to avenge their shock opening week loss to the Belarus club.
|Still undefeated in the Turkish league, Kayseri Kaski spor are looking for their second win in EuroCup Women
Despite their early season wobble in Minsk, Kayseri are flying in the Turkish League, being the only unbeaten team along with Fenerbahce after a 90-70 win at Besiktas last Sunday took them to a 4-0 record. In-form and free-scoring Evanthia Maltsi and Lara Sanders will probably pose the biggest threat to the visitors.
Another Turkish team in action on home soil are Adana Botas who face Group F leaders and defending EuroCup Women champions Dynamo Kursk. In truth, both clubs will be expected to advance at the expense of outsiders Dunav 8806 Ruse who are 0-2 at the present time.
Group G is developing into a fascinating one with two teams on 2-1 and two teams 1-2, but by the end of this week's action, we could have a four-way tie with everybody levelled up.
Buoyed by their first win of the season last week, VS Prague go up against a Dynamo Moscow team who were less than convincing in victory last time out. This could be a real banana skin for the Russian visitors although they will still be favourites to move to three wins.
Partizan Galenika pushed Dynamo really close in Moscow last week and they will be looking for a similarly competitive display on the road when they grapple with Basket Landes who almost collected a morale-boosting domestic success against EuroLeague Women side Bourges at the weekend but were narrowly beaten 62-60.
Finally in Group H, it's the last chance saloon for MBK Ruzomberok. Defeat at Vilnius Kibirkstis would not only end their chances of progressing, but would also hand the home team and Antakya a passage to the Eighth-Finals.

So in order to date most older fossils, scientists look for layers of igneous rock or volcanic ash above and below the fossil. "
"To determine the ages of these specimens, scientists need an isotope with a very long half-life. Some of the isotopes used for this purpose are uranium-238, uranium-235 and potassium-40, each of which has a half-life of more than a million years.
Unfortunately, these elements don't exist in dinosaur fossils themselves. Each of them typically exists inigneous rock, or rock made from cooled magma. Fossils, however, form in sedimentary rock -- sediment quickly covers a dinosaur's body, and the sediment and the bones gradually turn into rock. But this sediment doesn't typically include the necessary isotopes in measurable amounts. Fossils can't form in the igneous rock that usually does contain the isotopes. The extreme temperatures of the magma would just destroy the bones.
So to determine the age of sedimentary rock layers, researchers first have to find neighboring layers of Earth that include igneous rock, such as volcanic ash. These layers are like bookends -- they give a beginning and an end to the period of time when the sedimentary rock formed. By using radiometric dating to determine the age of igneous brackets, researchers can accurately determine the age of the sedimentary layers between them."
Ok so essentially, they date fossils by igneous rock and volcanic ash nearby in corresponding layers. Not a problem. The problem is this:
"The radioactive potassium-argon dating method has been demonstrated to fail on 1949, 1954, and 1975 lava flows at Mt Ngauruhoe, New Zealand, in spite of the quality of the laboratory's K–Ar analytical work. Argon gas, brought up from deep inside the earth within the molten rock, was already present in the lavas when they cooled. We know the true ages of the rocks because they were observed to form less than 50 years ago. Yet they yield 'ages' up to 3.5 million years which are thus false."
The Uinkaret Plateau samples came from lava flows on the plateau at the top of the Grand Canyon. Some of these lava flows actually flow down into the canyon, so the eruption must have occurred after the canyon was formed. This lava is some of the youngest rock in the Grand Canyon. The radiometric ages for this formation go from 10,000 years (the 0.01 K-Ar date in the upper left section of the table) to 2.81 billion years (the Pb-Pb isochron date). Rubidium-strontium dates all agree that the rocks are about 1.3 billion years old, which would make them pre-Cambrian rocks, not modern Quaternary rocks (which they obviously are).
Native American artifacts found within Uinkaret Plateau lava flows (slides 20-23).
So we have volcanic rocks being used to date fossils, measuring millions of years worth of age, when observation tells us that lava can show radiometric ages of millions of years when it is 50 years old. We also see artifacts that are determined to be 3000-1000 years old in lava that measures millions of years old.
This is a dating fail more awkward than forgetting to put on deodorant...
"Fossils are generally found in sedimentary rock—not igneous rock. Sedimentary rocks can be dated using radioactive carbon, but because carbon decays relatively quickly, this only works for rocks younger than about 50 thousand years.
So in order to date most older fossils, scientists look for layers of igneous rock or volcanic ash above and below the fossil. "
Real Science Friday reported on rock solid data showing radiometric carbon found in dinosaur bones, and refuted the idea that the results could have been explained away by contamination or neutron capture:
Yet another awkward dating fail... It takes awhile for refutations of old assumptions to be verified and passed around. Meanwhile, popular culture moguls stand by and take pot-shots at creationists out of ignorance.

Best Sports Bars at FSU for the Mayweather v. McGregor Fight
Although it's not guaranteed that all these bars listed will house the fight, you can always call ahead at least a week before the event and they will confirm the viewing.
Buffalo Wild Wings
You could try the typical Buffalo Wild Wings sports bar setting. This is personally one of my favorite places to go for sporting events with my friends and family. If you go early enough, you can avoid the long lines. Just eat slow and drink slow. Split some appetizers with friends while you wait, watch the various of sporting events that are showing beforehand, and when the time comes for the event itself, the atmosphere of all the excited people can't be beat!
Address: 392 S Magnolia Dr, Tallahassee, FL 32301
Momo's Pizza
Although I am not sure if they will host the fight itself, Momo's is one of the best and cheaper places to view sporting events. Located right across from Florida State University's campus, it is easy to get to for us college students. They are famously known for the large pizza slices and happy hour beer deals.
Address: 1416 W Tennessee St
Of course everyone has heard of Hooter's. Known for their waitresses and their wings, this place is sure to have the fight on August 26. They are usually one of the better place's equipped for hosting larger parties and with televisions everywhere, I am sure you will get a view of the fight. It's not even that far from campus! Just head down Monroe and you'll see the owl.
Address: 2000 N Monroe St, Tallahassee, FL 32303
Prime Time Lounge and Restaurant
The very first time I came to Tallahassee, my best friend insisted on heading out to Prime Time, located on West Tennessee Street. It has a million and one televisions lined up right next to each other, a huge patio for nice sunny days and even a huge bar that houses all the beers and liquor you desire! Although a little pricier, for larger groups you could easily split on appetizers and try to catch the happy hour specials for drinks at this awesome sports bar.
Address: 1921 W Tennessee St, Tallahassee, FL 32304
Beef 'O' Brady's
We have about three of this sports bar chain restaurant in Tallahassee. Honestly, you cannot go wrong with this chain for a major event such as the fight. Beef 'O' Brady's will almost for sure house a viewing for the Mayweather v. McGregor fight. Just like all sports bars, they'll tell you their wings are the best and I have to admit – their wing sauce is outstanding and at a price you just can't beat!
Address 1: 1800 Thomasville Rd, Tallahassee, FL 32303
Address 2: 1208 Capital Cir SE, Tallahassee, FL 32301
Address 3: 2910 Kerry Forest Parkway, #A-7, Tallahassee, FL 32309
Bj's is located on Apalachee Parkway and although not ultimately viewed as a sports bar restaurant, is a huge chain and probably would house the event if the demand for it is thought to be profitable. Around dinner time, the wait on a normal day for the Bj's in Tallahassee is about an hour and a half wait if you arrive during prime diner time, which is around 7 O'clock. They have a "textbook" size of a menu so there is sure to be something for everyone in your viewing group to munch on. The meal prices are also a little bit on the pricier side, however, they have awesome happy hour deals from 3 O'clock to 7 O'clock and then they start up again from 10 O'clock to closing.
Address: 1749 Apalachee Pkwy, Tallahassee, FL 32301
Again, please remember these are just the most popular sports bars that, in my opinion, are most likely to host a viewing for the Mayweather v. McGregor fight that is set for August 26th! Call ahead and ask to confirm that they are hosting a viewing and remember to drink responsibly and to not drive under the influence! Friendly reminder that Uber is very popular in the Tallahassee area and also not very expensive.

A "birth defect" is a health problem or physical change, which is present in a baby at the time he or she is born. Birth defects may be very mild, where the baby looks and acts like any other baby, or birth defects may be very severe, where you can immediately tell there is a health problem present. Some of the severe birth defects can be life-threatening, where a baby may only live a few months, or may die at a young age (in their teens, for example).
Birth defects are also called "congenital anomalies" or "congenital abnormalities." The word "congenital" means "present at birth." The words "anomalies" and "abnormalities" mean that there is a problem present in a baby.
There are many reasons why birth defects happen. Most occur due to environmental and genetic factors, but often the cause is unknown.
Birth defects have been present in babies from all over the world, in families of all nationalities and backgrounds. Anytime a couple becomes pregnant, there is a chance that their baby will have a birth defect. Most babies are born healthy. In fact, 97 out of 100 babies are born healthy.
When a baby is born with a birth defect, the first question usually asked by the parents is "how did this happen?" Sometimes, this question cannot be answered. This can be very upsetting for parents because it is normal to seek an answer as to why your baby has a health problem. For some birth defects, however, there is a known cause, which may have to do with either genetic or environmental factors, or a combination of the two. Here is some general information and terms related to the different causes of birth defects:
Although some birth defects have a single abnormality, others have abnormalities in multiple body systems or organs. Birth defects may cause life-long disability and illness, and with some, survival is not possible.
Some birth defects, such as mental retardation, are nontreatable disabilities. However, many physical birth defects can be treated with surgery. Repair is possible for many birth defects including cleft lip or palate, and certain heart defects.
Many birth defects can be diagnosed before birth with special tests (prenatal diagnosis). Chromosomal abnormalities, such as Down syndrome can be diagnosed before birth by analyzing cells in the amniotic fluid or from the placenta. Fetal ultrasound during pregnancy can also give information about the possibility of certain birth defects, but ultrasound is not 100 percent accurate, since some babies with birth defects may look the same on ultrasound as those without problems. A chromosome analysis, whether performed on a blood sample or cells from the amniotic fluid or placenta, is over 99.9 percent accurate.
Tests that help screen for birth defects include the following:
Sometimes, birth defects are not diagnosed until physical examination of the baby after birth. To confirm the physical findings, a small blood sample can be taken and the chromosomes can be analyzed. This information is important in determining the risk for that birth defect in future pregnancies.
Research is ongoing to find and treat the causes of many birth defects. Immunizations of the mother against certain infections, such as rubella, can prevent birth defects caused by that infection. Much has been learned about the dangerous effects of alcohol on the developing baby and women are advised to not drink alcohol during pregnancy. In recent years, a strong link has been discovered between the lack of the B-vitamin folic acid and the development of neural tube defects, such as spina bifida. Taking a vitamin containing sufficient folic acid before conception and in early pregnancy can often help prevent many serious birth defects.

Bulldogs back in Elite 8 for second straight season; will play Teutopolis
Don't' ever think for a second that winning gets old hat for Harrisburg.
However, for one night - a Friday night in March - it was anything about Madness and more about remembering.
The Bulldogs captured the school's seventh IHSA Class 2A Sectional championship with a 52-26 win over Nashville and the sixth for Harrisburg head coach Randy Smithpeters, as well as, a second straight and for all the hardwood plaques and basketball nets, it paled in comparison to what really mattered.
"This is for our community," Harrisburg senior Tyler Smithpeters said. "On what would be the anniversary of last year's (Leap Day) tornado, our one and only thought was to go out and win one for all of Harrisburg.
Max Morris Gymnasium was packed to the rafters and a strong contingent of Bulldog faithful were on hand.
Their made their presence known with about 1:22 to play in the game and broke out in unison with a chant of "S-I-U."
The chant was in reference to Tuesday night's Super Sectional showdown at the SIU Arena in Carbondale where Harrisburg will take on Teutopolis at 8 p.m. with a berth on Peoria and the state tournament on the line.
Capel Henshaw followed the lead of his fellow running mate of Smithpeters admitting that each one of these championships are special. Despite the chest-bumping or high-fiving that many teams might portray at the title game, Harrisburg just goes about its business.
However, Henshaw said there isn't much time to reflect on what's been accomplished.
"It's more of what we want to accomplish for the future," The senior shooting guard said. "We enjoy what we've been able to do, but it's what we want to do that really matter to us."
Henshaw is the first to admit that there is still a collective bad taste in the mouth of Harrisburg and this group of Bulldogs, who were upended by Breese Central, who went on to win the state title.
"We're kind looking forward to getting back up there and show some people we are ready to take it to the next level."
As far as winning back-to-back sectional titles, Smithpeters said there's time for them to soak everything in.
"We'll hang out, maybe get some free Mackie's pizza, but tomorrow we'll be back to work."

The city of Hendersonville heard a stellar audit report for its last fiscal year during a City Council meeting Thursday night.
The city of Hendersonville heard a stellar audit report for its last fiscal year during a City Council meeting Thursday night.
"The city continues to be in very good financial shape," said Ron Carland, a CPA with Carland and Andersen Inc. "The net worth of the city rose by $2,750,000 as a whole and reached nearly $100 million," from July 2011 through June 2012.
The city's water, sewer and sanitation department, he said, saw a net increase of $3 million. The governmental side of the city decreased by about $250,000, he added.
"The city's fund balance, which does not bring into account the expenditures of property or equipment but does recognize them as expenditures, fell by about $1.5 million, but this is roughly due to the expenditures on sidewalk improvements paid for with the bonds that were issued two years ago and the improvements to the downtown district on Main Street that have been paid for with no debt being issued," Carland said.
On the revenue side, property tax revenues were up about $80,000. Sales tax revenue was up about $125,000.
"The city increased its long-term debt this year by approximately $12 million," Carland said.
He added that the city received several grants during the year, including more than $300,000 from FEMA to hire additional firefighters and $200,000 from the Department of Energy for equipping three new dump trucks to run on compressed natural gas.
"The city remains very financially strong," he said. "It has $40 million in cash" in reserves.
"The state of North Carolina requires municipalities to have a fund balance of at least 8 percent of a year's worth of expenditures just so they don't get cash-strapped and are forced into short-term borrowing, and in your case the general fund of the city of Hendersonville is more like 52 percent," he said.
"If you're happy, I'm happy," said Councilman Steve Caraker.
In other good news, City Council members were happy to hear an update on plans for proposed upgrades at Berkeley Park.
Gary Wirth, principal of Wirth & Associates, which was contracted to complete a master plan for the park, presented a draft plan and sought input from the council.
The preliminary master plan includes:
- A baseball complex, utilizing the park's existing ballfield with covered seating, existing concession stand, existing restrooms and drop-off area with accessible parking with about 127 spaces. The ballpark is bordered by an outfield picnic patio and a batting cage.
- A soccer complex, with a 225-foot-by-360-foot soccer field, restroom building and parking with about 94 spaces.
- A destination playground and picnic area with multi-age playground structures, restroom building, picnic shelters and an open field for playing.
- A memorial tree garden with quite seating areas and walking paths.
- An overlook garden with a gazebo, garden landscaping, seating and a small playground.
- A group picnic area with existing picnic shelters, a new restroom building and parking with up to 48 spaces.
- An amphitheater (utilizing a natural hill on the property) with a sheltered stage, wetland overlook and seating for about 300 guests.
- A perimeter trail with about a mile-long inner loop, 1.6-mile outer loop and a half-a-mile pond loop.
- A wetlands boardwalk and observation area.
- A future Oklawaha greenway connector trail.
- A dog park of about two acres, with separate areas for large and small dogs and parking.
- Parking for the greenway trailhead, dog park and mountain bike areas, with about 45 spaces, restrooms and a meeting plaza.
- A youth mountain bike trail and mountain bike skills park.
- A lakeside picnic area.
City Manager Bo Ferguson told the board that this was "not a final version" of the park and plans are not "set in stone." He said that the council's guidance will be used to "prepare a master plan."
"This just blows me away," said Mayor Pro-tem Jeff Collis.
"This has all the things in it that people asked for," added Councilman Jerry Smith.
Wirth said they started with a "big wish list," but he believes elements of the park, like the memorial gardens, will be a big hit.
