Lemont, IL 60439-6711
Gorgeous course. Truly tough for duffers, so it is appropriately named (dubsdread). But I disagree with Mickelson's sentiments about this course. It is challenging but playable. Phil M clearly has an axe to grind w/ Rees Jones. Maybe he's still upset about Rees' work on his hometown course in San Diego?
Course Details/History
- Architect Name – Joseph L. Lee/Dick Wilson/(R) Rocky Roquemore
- Greens Grass Type – Bent Grass
- Regulation Length Holes – 72
- Twitter – https://www.pga.com/
Golf.com Editorial
Public, 72 holes, $155
Cog Hill has been ranked as one of the top courses in the U.S. by Golf Magazine's panel of experts.
Mark Calcavecchia once said No. 4, a 1964 Dick Wilson/Joe Lee design, "could host a U.S. Open tomorrow." It won't be the 2017 Open -- that was awarded to Erin Hills -- but Cog Hill was very close to earning the national championship. Time, technology and soft, inconsistent greens had removed the fangs from a course nicknamed Dubsdread, but a 2008 redo by Rees Jones deepened and repositioned bunkers and stretched it to nearly 7,400 yards.
No. 2 -- Ravines -- opened in 1929 and is routed through wooded and rolling terrain. What the course lacks in length (6,600 yds from back tees), it makes up in strategy. Not as demanding as our championship layout, but it is challenging just the same. The greens are challenging in size and commonly guarded by ravines or grass hollows. Course 1 and Course 3 weave through the same property and feature similar design features. Creeks come into play on numerous holes.

PORTSMOUTH — Pease Air National Guard Base hosted 13 aircraft and 75 personnel overnight last night, making a scheduled rotation after spending time in the Middle East.
Lieutenant Colonel Bill Davis, of Pease, could not say exactly where they were coming from due to security reasons, but said the aircraft landed in Portsmouth throughout the day on Sunday, starting in late morning and ending later in the afternoon.
According to a public statement, the following aircraft spent the night at Pease: six F-22 "Raptor" fighters, which use "stealth technology" and are the "most sophisticated fighter aircraft ever built," one C-17 "Globemaster III" cargo aircraft, which carries maintenance equipment, parts and personnel, three KC-10 "Extender" air refueling aircraft and three KC-135 "Stratotanker" air refueling aircraft.
"They kind of fly like a package," Davis said about the way the aircraft take off for deployment and then return home. "The fighters follow the tankers and make their way across the ocean using a series of refuelings."
The scheduled rotation they made at Pease on Sunday, according to Davis, is like a stop during a road trip.
"The fighter pilots will fly a certain stretch, spend the night and then continue their travels," he said.
The fighters have a limited range for flying, so when deployed, they require support from air refueling and maintenance crews.
"That package of flights flew overseas together and rotated back to the U.S. returning home from a scheduled deployment," Davis said. "The units will rotate in and out."
Pease is a popular stop during a rotation due to its large aircraft parking ramp.
According to a public statement, "a planning cell at the base is one of five Air Force wide that plans these moves and Pease coordinates over 100 per year for U.S. and Allied nations."
Of the 13 aircraft that stopped at Pease, just one was New Hampshire based.
According to Davis, just one of the three KC-135s calls Pease home. On Monday morning, the rest of the aircraft flew home to Air Force bases scattered across the United States.
One of the C-17s departed home to Elmendorf, Alaska, while some flew to March Air Reserve in California. The six F-22 "Raptor" fighters went to Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico.

Houston Texans defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel plans to move his chess pieces all over the board this season.
Taking a page from New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick, Crennel plans to be multiple in how he attacks offenses.
"You have to be flexible and be able to adapt to what your players can do, and you have to be able to adapt to what your opponent's doing," Crennel said, per the Houston Chronicle. "It changes all the time. That's something I learned from Belichick: Study your opponent, find out what they're doing good, and figure out what you need to take away."
The key for Crennel is utilizing OTAs to figure out what his defenders do best and work to those strengths.
The one man with few weaknesses is defensive lineman J.J. Watt. Crennel plans to use Watt up and down the line in his base 3-4 defense. He also hinted at potentially standing the All-Pro up as an outside rusher.
"I think moving him around will be an asset for us," Crennel said. "I know he can play well inside. I watched the Pro Bowl, and they used him as an outside rusher, and he looked pretty good out there."
(And you thought no one watched the Pro Bowl.)
With a stacked line in Honolulu, Watt played defensive end in a 4-3 defense and constantly disrupted the backfield.
If Crennel mimics Belichick's style there is always a chance he could toss in some 4-3 looks (assuming he can find the tackles) and use No. 1 overall draft pick Jadeveon Clowney in his college pass-rushing role bookending Watt.
Regardless, with linebacker Brooks Reed's ability to play inside and outside, Clowney's versatility opposite Whitney Mercilus and Watt's dominance wherever he lines up, Crennel has the building blocks of a creative defense.
The latest "Around The League Podcast" breaks down the news and discusses players who could be summertime trade targets.

Swimming Pool Blog
by Sean Griffin, April 4, 2011
The New ADA Standard or the "Pool Lift Law"
New laws handed down by the Department of Justice are now in effect. The Standards for Accessible Design 2010 revision have been adopted by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The ADA ensures Americans with disabilities will not be faced with discrimination, and certain public and semi-public swimming pools now need to provide a pool lift for every 300 sq. ft. of pool perimeter.
Americans with disabilities are now the largest minority group in the Unites States with a population over 50 million the updates will greatly affect both new construction and existing structures within the swimming pool industry around the country. The mandate was implemented nationwide March 15, 2011. To allow time for current facilities that fall under this mandate to become compliant a deadline of March 15, 2012 is in place.
New pool construction companies and existing commercial maintenance companies with properties that are subject to this mandate might treat this new law as a burden and procrastinate like many facilities did with the recent Virginia Graham Baker Act (VGB). Due to non compliance and poor budgeting several facilities were unable to open. Local municipalities including Health Departments will mandate the laws set in place by the DOJ.
Failure to meet the new requirements could lead to loss in any federal funding (such as HUDD), loss of local and federal grants, and the possibilities of drastically increased insurance rates and possible insurance cancellation. A facility that operates outside the ADA guidelines is in violation of Federal Civil Rights Laws and could possibly be subject to legal ramifications or large fines. To avoid the negative possibilities associated with disregarding new laws, all public and private entities with public use pools should factor in an ADA compliant lift or other means of compliant access into their upcoming fiscal budget.
Step one is to evaluate wither you are indeed subject to the law change. Title II and Title III of the ADA explains private, semi-private, and public facilities that will need to meet the requirements. Online material is offered by the Department of Justice in both PDF and HTML format at here:
The ADA Guidance handbook addresses the scope and technical provisions of the 2010 Standard.
Swimming pools with less than 300 linear feet permiter measurement will require a minimum of one (1) ADA acceptable pool lift. Pools over 300 linear feet require 2 means of access with one being primary. Slopped entries beachfront entry and Pool Lifts are considered primary. For existing properties adding in an approved lift is more economical as opposed to making major structural changes to meet the definition of a slopped entry that serves as a primary means of access as defined by the ADA. A primary means of access is also required for Spas, Wading pools, lazy rivers, and other pools where user entry is limited to one area.
Lift requirements for spas are slightly different from pools. In addition local authorities can mandate additional requirements. California law currently mandates removable or foldable armrests equipped on every lift installed in the state. As local authorities adopt current code, additional regulations might be associated. Always check with local municipalities and/or an ADA representative to make sure your efforts to be compliant are met.
After determining the most economical and affective route to keeping up with current regulations it is time to determine which manufacturer you will be purchasing your ADA compliant lift from. In some cases multiple lifts will need to be installed for separate bodies of water. Manufacturer's directions should be followed thoroughly while ensuring ADA compliance. Confirm the Lift meets all requirements. Weight limit, pivoting capabilities, and the means to operate in and out of the water by the user are some of the technical aspects associated with meeting the criteria set forth by the DOJ.
Certain pool lift models require an anchor to be permanently installed into the pool decking which requires bonding to the frame of the pool. Proper bonding is required to satisfy electrical code. Bonding locations may dictate where you will install your ADA lift. Water depth in pools with varying water levels and preference by the owner may also influence placement.
There are several Pool Lift models that are currently available. Some borrow a design based on technology originally refined for hospital beds. Power is sustained from a battery source, an electrical source, or water pressure. More recent pool lift models are portable and can be operated from a remote. The footprint can be large on the bigger portable models, but there are some very sleek, single pole units that mount into a regular deck anchor socket.
Things to consider when shopping for your pool lift should include:
- Pool Lift Design-
- Aluminum or Steel. Powder coatings, warranty.
- Wiring, remote operation, battery life.
- Portability or ease of movement.
- Pool Lift installation-
- Before you buy, read and understand all instruction manuals to make sure the unit is adequate and capable of overcoming any of obstructions associated with the pool deck layout. Set back range and water draft range should be considered. Any existing pool gutter should be accounted for.
- Bonding of any permanent anchor to pool frame. If permanently installed, the unit should be bonded to other steel structure or frame for electrical safety. Refer to article 680 of the NEC for more information.
- Pool Lift Care and Maintenance-
- The new ADA laws also mandate yearly maintenance to ensure all controls and remotes function and is in full working condition, pivoting properly.
- Pool Lifts need occasional lubrication, cleaning and covering when not in use.

On Thursday, President Obama said:
We lose ourselves when we compromise the very ideals that we fight to defend.
Presumably, complying with American and international law are some of the ideals that we fight to defend.
Torture is a violation of both international and American law. Specifically, the Geneva Convention makes it illegal to inflict mental or physical torture or inhuman treatment.
As I pointed out in 2005:
The War Crimes Act of 1996, a federal statute set forth at 18 U.S.C. § 2441, makes it a federal crime for any U.S. national, whether military or civilian, to violate the Geneva Convention by engaging in murder, torture, or inhuman treatment.
The statute applies not only to those who carry out the acts, but also to those who ORDER IT, know about it, or fail to take steps to stop it. The statute applies to everyone, no matter how high and mighty.
Indeed, even the lawyers and other people who aided in the effort may be war criminals; see also this article , this one, and this press release.
Have Things Changed Under the Obama Administration?
You may assume that things have changed after President Obama was sworn in.
However, the Obama Department of Justice is trying to protect torture memo writer John Yoo. As constitutional law expert Jonathan Turley notes:
The president literally has gotten onto a plane this evening to go to Norway to accept the Nobel Prize, while his Justice Department is effectively gutting a major part of Nuremberg.
The Obama administration is arguing not only that they shouldn't be prosecuted, but it's now saying that you shouldn't even be able to sue them civilly …. It's an international disgrace.
Well, it may be a disgrace, but at least torture isn't continuing under the Obama administration, right?
In fact, many reporters have said that the Bagram prison facility in Afghanistan is worse than Guantanamo ever was. Moreover, abuse is apparently still occurring there.
As Spiegel wrote on September 21, 2009, in an article entitled "Prisoner Abuse Continues at Bagram Prison in Afghanistan":
US President Barack Obama has spoken out against CIA prisoner abuse and wants to close Guantanamo. But he tolerates the existence of Bagram military prison in Afghanistan, where more than 600 people are being held without charge. The facility makes Guantanamo look like a "nice hotel," in the words of one military prosecutor…
Bagram is "the forgotten second Guantanamo," says American military law expert Eugene Fidell, a professor at Yale Law School. "But apparently there is a continuing need for this sort of place even under the Obama administration.
"From the beginning, "Bagram was worse than Guantanamo," says New York-based attorney Tina Foster, who has argued several cases on behalf of detainee rights in US courts. "Bagram has always been a torture chamber."
And what does Obama say? Nothing. He never so much as mentions Bagram in any of his speeches. When discussing America's mistreatment of detainees, he only refers to Guantanamo.
Obama still never mentions Bagram.
Spiegel continues:
From the beginning, Bagram was notorious for the brutal forms of torture employed there. Former inmates report incidents of sleep deprivation, beatings and various forms of sexual humiliation [and rape with sticks]…
At least two men died during imprisonment. One of them, a 22-year-old taxi driver named Dilawar, was suspended by his hands from the ceiling for four days, during which US military personnel repeatedly beat his legs. Dilawar died on Dec. 10, 2002. In the autopsy report, a military doctor wrote that the tissue on his legs had basically been "pulpified." As it happens, his interrogators had already known — and later testified — that there was no evidence against Dilawar…
However attorney Tina Foster feels that the new initiative is just a cosmetic measure. "There is absolutely no difference between the Bush administration and the Obama administration's position with respect to Bagram detainees' rights," she says during an interview with SPIEGEL in her office in the New York borough of Queens.
And see this.
Moreover, Obama is still apparently allowing "rendition flights" – where prisoners are flown to countries which freely torture – to continue. This itself violates the Geneva Convention and the War Crimes Act of 1996.
Specifically, to the extent that the U.S. is sending prisoners to other countries for the express purpose of being tortured are true, violation of the war crimes act by the highest officials of our country would be probable. For who else but Obama, Gates and other top officials would have the ability to authorize such flights? How could such a program be undertaken without their knowledge? And how could such a program be anything but the intentional "ordering" of torture, or at least "knowing about it" and "failing to take steps to stop it"?
Finally, Jeremy Scahill – the reporter who broke most of the stories on Blackwater – says that some forms of torture at Guantanamo have continued under Obama, and may even have gotten worse. For example, Scahill points out that:
The Center for Constitutional Rights released a report titled "Conditions of Confinement at Guantánamo: Still In Violation of the Law," which found that abuses continued. In fact, one Guantanamo lawyer, Ahmed Ghappour, said that his clients were reporting "a ramping up in abuse" since Obama was elected.
But Torture Is a Necessary Evil
Many would say that this is disgusting, but that torture is a necessary evil to defend our national security.
But as I have previously pointed out:
- Torture actually reduces our national security
- Most of those tortured were innocent
- Torture has also been used throughout history as a form of intimidation, to terrorize people into obedience, not for gathering information
Moreover, the type of torture used by the U.S. in the last 10 years is of a special type. Senator Levin revealed that the U.S. used torture techniques aimed at extracting false confessions.
McClatchy subsequently filled in some of the details:
Former senior U.S. intelligence official familiar with the interrogation issue said that Cheney and former Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld demanded that the interrogators find evidence of al Qaida-Iraq collaboration…
For most of 2002 and into 2003, Cheney and Rumsfeld, especially, were also demanding proof of the links between al Qaida and Iraq that (former Iraqi exile leader Ahmed) Chalabi and others had told them were there."
It was during this period that CIA interrogators waterboarded two alleged top al Qaida detainees repeatedly — Abu Zubaydah at least 83 times in August 2002 and Khalid Sheik Muhammed 183 times in March 2003 — according to a newly released Justice Department document…
When people kept coming up empty, they were told by Cheney's and Rumsfeld's people to push harder," he continued."Cheney's and Rumsfeld's people were told repeatedly, by CIA . . . and by others, that there wasn't any reliable intelligence that pointed to operational ties between bin Laden and Saddam . . .
A former U.S. Army psychiatrist, Maj. Charles Burney, told Army investigators in 2006 that interrogators at the Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, detention facility were under "pressure" to produce evidence of ties between al Qaida and Iraq.
"While we were there a large part of the time we were focused on trying to establish a link between al Qaida and Iraq and we were not successful in establishing a link between al Qaida and Iraq," Burney told staff of the Army Inspector General. "The more frustrated people got in not being able to establish that link . . . there was more and more pressure to resort to measures that might produce more immediate results."
"I think it's obvious that the administration was scrambling then to try to find a connection, a link (between al Qaida and Iraq)," [Senator] Levin said in a conference call with reporters. "They made out links where they didn't exist."
Levin recalled Cheney's assertions that a senior Iraqi intelligence officer had met Mohammad Atta, the leader of the 9/11 hijackers, in the Czech Republic capital of Prague just months before the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
The FBI and CIA found that no such meeting occurred.
In other words, top Bush administration officials not only knowingly lied about a non-existent connection between Al Qaida and Iraq, but they pushed and insisted that interrogators use special torture methods aimed at extracting false confessions to attempt to create such a false linkage. See also this and this.
Paul Krugman summarized eloquently summarized the truth about the type of torture used:
Let's say this slowly: the Bush administration wanted to use 9/11 as a pretext to invade Iraq, even though Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11. So it tortured people to make them confess to the nonexistent link.
There's a word for this: it's evil.
Torture Is Antithetical to American Ideals
All torture is unjustifiable, as it produces no good intelligence and weakens national security. I think that – as Congress recognized in passing the War Crimes Act of 1996 – all torture is antithetical to American ideals.
The surge in Afghanistan is not necessary. For example, the U.S. admits there are only a small handful of Al Qaeda in Afghanistan. As ABC notes:
U.S. intelligence officials have concluded there are only about 100 al Qaeda fighters in the entire country.
With 100,000 troops in Afghanistan at an estimated yearly cost of $30 billion, it means that for every one al Qaeda fighter, the U.S. will commit 1,000 troops and $300 million a year.
And a leading advisor to the U.S. military – the very hawkish Rand Corporation – released a study in 2008 called "How Terrorist Groups End: Lessons for Countering al Qa'ida". As a press release about the study states:
Terrorists should be perceived and described as criminals, not holy warriors, and our analysis suggests that there is no battlefield solution to terrorism.
There are additional reasons why prolonging the Afghan war may reduce our national security, such as arguably weakening our economy.
Many experts also say that a surge in Afghanistan will actually weaken our national security by pushing the few remaining Al Qaeda into Pakistan – a county with nuclear weapons. See this and this.
If Nobel Peace Prize winner Obama is going to escalate the war in Afghanistan anyway, the least he should do is stop all torture.

Batter up! San Francisco Giants, Detroit Tigers walk-up music
There's an old saying in baseball -- "never waste an at-bat."
Everything about the moment is important, from a batter's initial stance to his final swing. Yet, it all starts with the walk-up music, which, as far as we're concerned, is always of the utmost importance.
A batter's walk-up music is self-descriptive -- it's the snippet of a tune played as the batter walks from the on-deck circle to the actual batter's box. The term -- or a variation on it, like "walk-in" or "entrance" -- also is used for the music played when pitchers, usually closers, take to the mound. These songs are frequently chosen by a team's music director (or someone filling that role), often with input from individual players.
Ideally, these songs should say something about the player -- describe his ferocity or ability or background. The most famous walk-up of all might be Mariano Rivera's use of Metallica's "Enter Sandman," which signifies that when this New York Yankees closer takes the mound, it's nighty-night for the opposing team -- and, more often than not, that's the case.
In honor of the World Series opening this week, here's a look at some of the walk-up music used by the two teams battling for the championship -- the San Francisco Giants and the Detroit Tigers. (Note, walk-up music is known to change -- so this might not reflect exactly what will be heard at the games.) We'll go by projected batting order:
San Francisco Giants:
1. Angel Pagan (No. 16, CF)
Song: "Blue," Gemini
Electronic Dance Music (EDM) is all the rage these days. It's even made it to the realm of the walk-up. This is a hip choice, courtesy of the British DJ known as Gemini.
2. Marco Scutaro (No. 19, 2B)
Song: "Danza Kuduro," Don Omar
This tune, which is also favored by the Tigers' Jhonny Peralta, is a fine reggaeton anthem. But, given Scutaro's performance in the playoffs, maybe R.E.M.'s "Superman" would be a more appropriate choice.
3. Pablo Sandoval (No. 48, 3B)
Song: "The Motto," Drake
This 2011 cut served Drake quite well -- it sold more than 2 million copies in the U.S. alone -- and it certainly works for Pablo's walk-up music.
4. Buster Posey (No. 28, C)
Song: "Me Myself and I," De La Soul
Was Buster even born when this song came out? It's an oldie, a No. 1 R&B hit from the hip-hop band in 1989, but it's certainly a goody. We wish more batters would go old-school with their walk-ups.
5. Hunter Pence (No. 8, RF)
Song: "A Warrior's Call," Volbeat; "Breakn' a Sweat," Skrillex
This Hunter splits his time between heavy metal (Volbeat) and EDM (Skrillex) -- and both are appropriately energized walk-up tunes. Plus, we like what the titles say about Pence -- certainly a warrior who's not afraid to break a sweat.
6. Brandon Belt (No. 9, 1B)
Song: N/A?
Maybe he prefers to listen to the crowd?
7. Gregor Blanco (No. 7, RF)
Song: "Welcome to Jamrock" -- Damian Marley
One of the best reggae rockers to come along in many a moon, this cut from Bob Marley's son -- Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley -- is a rollicking choice for the walk-up.
8. Brandon Crawford (No. 35, SS)
Song: "Writer's Block," Royce da 5'9
On principle, we are against anything that uses the term "Writer's Block" -- which puts the Fear of Editor into every journalist. Plus, this song features Eminem, a proud Detroit guy. So, maybe, Crawford should get a new walk-up song for this series.
9. Pitcher's spot
Barry Zito (Game One starter) might turn to one of the best rappers on the planet, Nas, for "Doo Rags." We're just glad that he doesn't use one of his own tunes.
Detroit Tigers:
1. Austin Jackson (No. 14, CF)
Songs: "Ballin'," Young Jeezy; "Ambition," Wale
Young Jeezy's "Ballin'", featuring Lil Wayne, is a good selection for a leadoff man -- since it's his job to get the party started. And, clearly, it's also his "Ambition" to get on base.
2. Quintin Berry (No. 52, LF)
Song: "Hypnotize," the Notorious B.I.G.
This was one of Biggie's biggest hits -- and it fits as a walk-up song. Berry has many weapons in his arsenal (notably, his speed), but the Giants might be in trouble if hypnosis is one of them.
3. Miguel Cabrera (No. 24, 3B)
Song: "(Expletive) in Paris," Jay-Z and Kanye West
This was arguably the most memorable hit of last year -- a surefire crowd-pleaser from the two kings of hip-hop. It's the perfect choice for the best hitter in baseball -- who this year became the game's first triple-crown winner since 1967.
4. Prince Fielder (No. 28, 1B)
Songs: "Moments in Love," Art of Noise; "Down For My (Expletive)," C-Murder
Art of Noise's experimental electronic love ballad, which moves along at a strikingly glacial pace, is no doubt dramatic -- but it's a weird one for a walk-up. C-Murder's hip-hop blast is a much safer bet.
5. Delmon Young (No. 21, DH in the Tigers' park, LF at AT&T)
Song: "I'm Raw," Lil Wayne
As a designated hitter, Young probably has a lot of time to consider walk-up material. We applaud the choice of Weezy.
6. Jhonny Peralta (No. 27, SS)
Song: "Energia," Alexis Y Fido: "Danza Kuduro," Don Omar
The shortstop gets his game on by turning to a pair of Puerto Rican reggaeton acts.
7. Alex Avila (No. 13, C)
Song: "I Got Mine," the Black Keys
The modern blues-rock duo, which has been compared to the White Stripes, provides the right punch for a walk-up song.
8. Omar Infante (No. 4, 2B)
Song: "Prendelo," El Shick
It's an unusual dance-club ditty, kind of a nightclub shaker with a cutting-edge electro-pop vibe, but it does the trick.
9. Pitcher's spot
Yes, the Tigers will have to hit while they are in San Francisco -- which will be a new thing for these American League cats. Look for Justin Verlander (Game One starter) to go with Eminem's "Till I Collapse" -- and, for a Detroit dude, you can't go wrong with Slim Shady.

No other buildings quite define the Kuala Lumpur skyline like the most famous twins in town do: the Petronas Towers. These buildings soar 452 metres into the sky and were once the highest towers in the world. The twin buildings' record was shattered with the opening of the Taipei 101 in Taiwan 6 years later.
Architect César Pelli's design of the towers has been largely inspired by traditional Islamic art patterns. The angular façades of the 88 floors form octagonal stars, and the pinnacles of the buildings resemble the classic contours of a minaret. An interesting fact is that the 2 identical towers were built by different construction companies in order to meet the 6-year construction deadline of the project. The towers were officially inaugurated on 1 August 1999 by the Prime Minister of Malaysia.
Although no longer the tallest buildings in the world, there are still plenty of superlatives to describe the towers. The walkway on the 41st and 42nd floor that connects the two towers is still the highest of its kind. The Skybridge is actually not attached to the towers, but moves in and out of the buildings on each side. In high winds the towers sway in various directions and without this range of motion the bridge could break.
Visitors can access the Skybridge and the observation deck on the 86th floor via one of the express double-decker elevators. Other entertainment is located at the foot of the towers: watch a performance by the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra or follow the shopping route through one of the largest shopping centres in the country, Suria KLCC. There is even an aquarium with a 90 metre-long underwater tunnel for a close-up look at sea turtles, tiger sharks and stingrays.

?uestlove's Top 10 Life-Shaping Musical Moments (OG Version)
We got an email this morning from the Afrolord, subject heading: figured this would be a good idea, which is how you know when you are about to embark on something that is probably a bad idea. But when ?uesto says we might have to hurt people, we say "which car do you want to take?"
In this case, the car is this OG director's cut version of his top 10 list Music Moments that Shaped my Life, submitted recently to Rolling Stone. Below are his exact reasons for thinking that publishing the list in its original, unedited form would be a good idea:
in light of the recent "war" that Pitchfork was trying to start over Bon Iver member Justin Vernon's contribution to Rolling Stone's "list" issue with me, i decided to present the entire piece.
i wasn't going after Justin's list. i was angered at the fact that i took my only day off per MONTH to do this assignment. and i thought i did a quite thorough job at it. much better job than some of the other contributions that seemed rather last minute and not quite well thought out.
i suggested the idea of this list to RS in an effort for them to zero in on artists that are actual fans and experts of a certain field of music (they initially asked me for a yacht rock list and i declined, for i think i need a year of deep concentration so that i would leave no stone unturned should i get asked again next year. i just dont wanna rattle off "the DOOBIES!" cause that's the cool thing to do. i wanna peep under the surface in case there is some cool yachting i missed. sounds "earnest" but its the responsible thing to do).
anywho, part of me knew that my unedited piece would get chopped to bits (and in this case not used at all for the print issue) so. instead i decided to share the top 10 "music" moments that shaped my life.
note: the edited RS Top 10 list is linked to an actual Spotify playlist for those that care to listen but we have put in youtubes for ease of listening here.

Wall Street is suddenly yawning over the deficit.
The July CNBC Fed Survey finds that concern with the deficit on the street has reached a seven-month low, with a majority of respondents for the first time saying reducing the nation's red ink is no longer urgent.
In January, 80 percent of respondents said the U.S. should immediately put in place a deficit reduction plan. Now just 40 percent do.

The warning label first went on cigarette packs in 1966: "Cigarette Smoking May be Hazardous to Your Health."
In the preceding decades, there may have been some confusion about this fact. Tobacco companies would use the medical community to advertise "More doctors smoke Camels than any other cigarette," and "20,679 physicians say Luckies are less irritating."
By 1966, though, many people in the health-care profession knew, or at lease suspected, that these commercials were deliberate lies.
Imagine how many Americans quit smoking in the 1960s and 1970s and lived all the way to 2014, only to read headlines about the nation's second-largest pharmacy chain saying, you know what, we're going to stop selling cigarettes. They're bad.
"Put simply, the sale of tobacco products is inconsistent with our purpose," Larry Merlo, chief executive officer of CVS Caremark CVS, +1.05% said in a press release Wednesday.
How can tobacco products be inconsistent with their purpose? They sell the disease and they sell the cure. This is how it's always been done, not just at CVS but just about everywhere.
McDonald's MCD, -0.54% is promoting healthier options — salads, oatmeal and smoothies — because too many Americans are dangerously fat, but you don't see it pulling the Big Mac.
The beverage industry advertises "drink responsibly," but it knows its products enable alcoholics and cause fatal car crashes.
And the pharmaceutical industry? Don't get me going on the overprescribed medications, side effects and fad diet pills that do more harm than good. Just listen to the warnings they rattle off in every drug commercial, or search the Internet for class-action lawsuits. It's all there in plain sight, just like the warnings on cigarette labels.
Typically these remedies are dispensed through pharmacies, including CVS.
CVS said that when it pulls tobacco products from its 7,600 stores, it lose will lose $2 billion in revenues from tobacco shoppers.
Smokers don't just buy cigarettes, but breath mints, candies, mouthwashes, teeth whiteners, air fresheners, vitamins and sometimes even products to help them quit smoking, such as nicotine-laced gum.
This business will shift to CVS' competitors, such as Walgreen Co. US:WAG , the nation's largest drugstore chain, and Wal-Mart Stores Inc. WMT, -0.11% , the world's largest retailer, until they, too, feel forced to follow suit.
It's only a matter of time until other retailers realize what CVS has finally found: An aging generation is taking more drugs and smoking fewer cigarettes, so the big money is with Big Pharma not Big Tobacco.
Smokers will just have to go to the gas station or convenience store for their cigarettes, but they'll come back to CVS once they're sick.
One of my best childhood friends has been through countless rounds of chemotherapy over the past year. He's smoked all his life and has lung cancer at age 52. He's also got three kids and maybe a few months left to live. I'm flying to Chicago this weekend to see him, perhaps for the last time. Many of us have known someone like this.
"The significant action we're taking today by removing tobacco products from our retail shelves further distinguishes us in how we are serving our patients, clients and health-care providers and better positions us for continued growth in the evolving health-care marketplace," Merlo said.
Drugstores have helped the tobacco industry deliver its products to people for decades — even after the consequences of smoking were well known. And now, in 2014, its time to start focusing on health — but not until Oct. 1.
That's the date when CVS will finally pull the plug. Just think of all the cigarettes it can sell between now and then.
It's shocking how many years it takes corporations to notice their hypocrisy, irony and addiction to things. Merlo sounds just like a smoker. Yeah, we're going to quit, um, in October.

Yale Finishing Non-League Slate

NEW HAVEN, Conn. – Two teams looking for momentum heading into the thick of the league season square off at Yale Bowl on the Class of 1954 Field Saturday at noon. Yale (1-3, 0-2 Ivy) hosts Lafayette (3-2, 1-0 Patriot) in the Bulldogs' last non-league contest, which can be seen live on ESPN3 and Yale All Access and heard on WELI (AM-960, weli.com) and wybcx.com.
Yale leads 7-2 heading into the 10th meeting. The Leopards have won the last two (2009, 2011) meetings. The first encounter came in 1912 and the first four games were Yale victories by a combined 145-0. The largest margin of victory for Yale was 55-0 in 1935.
Yale WR Chris Smith had 174 yards receiving, but it was not enough for the Elis to overcome an early deficit that led to a 28-19 Lafayette win at Easton last October. Yale, playing a rare Saturday night game, closed to within 21-19 in the fourth before it slipped away. Lafayette CB Darius Safford picked off two Bulldog passes to lead the home team's defense.
Alex Park completed 15 of 27 passes for 204 yards and a score as Dartmouth broke open a close game at Yale Bowl in the third quarter on the way to a 34-14 over Yale in a contest that did not have any turnovers. The Big Green (3-1, 1-1 Ivy), winners over the Bulldogs for the first time in 10 years, trailed 14-10 late in the second quarter after the Elis used a trick play and a pair of unlikely seniors on fourth-down from the visitor's 18-yard line. Backup WR Derek Russell took the shot-gun snap and ran forward two steps before tossing a perfect spiral into the hands of DE Dylan Drake, who was lined up to block very close to where the ball was centered. Dartmouth scored the game's next 24 points. Riley Lyons booted field goals from 24 and 36 yards while Brian Grove, who came in for the shaken up Dominick Pierre (91 rushing yards), rushed for two touchdowns. The Big Green has seven more minutes of possession time and was 6-for-7 in the red zone. Yale was led by the passing of Eric Williams (17-24, 181, 1 TD) and the running of Mordecai Cargill, who led all players with 96 yards.
Ross Scheuerman rushed for 125 yards and a score on just 11 carries but his Lafayette team surrendered the game's first 29 points and could not catch up in Princeton's 35-14 win at Easton last Saturday night. The Tigers converted 10 of 17 third downs and held the home team to just three conversions on 11 attempts. Sophomore QB Zach Zweizig completed 17 of 28 passes for 194 yards, but was hurt by a pair of Princeton interceptions.
Lafayette's season-opening win at perennial national power William & Mary was true eye-opener… The Leopards were No. 2 (now 12th) in the nation in turnover margin average until last week; they are still tops in the Patriot League… Jared Roberts is 5th in the FCS in interceptions; Shane Dorner is 9th in sacks… There is a pair of Connecticut kids on the current roster, PK Case Garner (Middletown) and TE Morgan Donohue (Madison).
It seems surprising for a team with three wins already this fall to be averaging under 300 total yards, especially when they are giving up nearly 350. However, the only statistic Lafayette cares about is on the scoreboard, and the Leopards are up. The Bulldogs, who had their first turnover-free game last week, need a comparable performance this week, especially against a team that is one of the nation's best at taking the ball away.
Yale's seven-minute, 17-play drive in the second quarter against Dartmouth looked like it might lift the momentum in favor of the Elis. Three fourth-down conversions were successful, including the final play from the Dartmouth 18. The Big Green thought Yale would be attempting a field goal, but the ball was snapped to Derek Russell (Newton, Mass.), who looked like he was going to run before tossing a pass into the end zone for DE Dylan Drake (Plantation, Fla.).
Yale had seven fourth-down conversion attempts last week. All three successful attempts came on the long drive in the second quarter.
Ten different Bulldogs caught passes against Dartmouth, including a team-high three for freshman TE Stephen Buric (East Lake, Fla.). Six players had a pair of grabs.
WR Derek Russell had his first collegiate TD throw, while DE Dylan Drake scored his first TD. TE Michael Leunen (Portland, Ore.), scored his first points for Yale by grabbing a three-yard pass from QB Eric Williams (Portland, Ore.) in the first quarter.
Yale's three-yard TD pass in the first quarter last Saturday went from one Portland native to another. Eric Williams (Jesuit High) and Michael Leunen (Westview) played against each other in 2009 with Jesuit taking the contest, 24-23. Williams was a sophomore receiver that year, Leunen a senior tight end. The two schools met last weekend at Williams' old stomping grounds and the result was: Jesuit 42, Westview 7.
Senior RB Mordecai Cargill (Cleveland, Ohio) sat out game three with an injury but returned strong last week with a game-high 96 yards on 25 runs. He also caught two passes.
Senior LB Will McHale (Old Greenwich, Conn.) leads the Blue with 22 solo, 37 overall tackles and three stops for lost yardage. McHale, who has started 24 straight games since his sophomore year, has 171 career tackles and three interceptions. He was second-team All-Ivy last fall. The 6-foot-1, 236-pound defensive leader with Sunday football potential comes from a college football family. Both his father and grandfather played at Notre Dame.
Yale newcomer Tyler Varga (Kitchener, Ont.) is averaging 106 yards per game and has scored three rushing TDs. He had 275 all-purpose yards (125 rush, 119 KR, 31 Rec) against Colgate and ranks second among all FCS players with 183.50 per game. He earned the first Ivy League Rookie of the Week award after galloping for a game-high 103 yards and two scores in a win at Georgetown on Sept. 15. He is the first newcomer to run for triple digits in his Yale debut since Mike McLeod in 2005. Varga, who played at the University of Western Ontario in 2011, scored the first points of the Yale season on a two-yard run in the first quarter at D.C. before adding the winning points in the third with a nine-yard burst. The 5-foot-11, 220-pound back was a star track & field (sprinter, triple jump, thrower) athlete who also competed in swimming, basketball and baseball. Varga was a star regional sprinter and jumper, but injured his leg and was convinced by his coach to help the team by throwing the shot (45', 6.5") and javelin (110'). He excelled at both.
Cameron Sandquist leads the team with 22 catches and 281 yards this season, including a career-best 10 catches against Colgate. He entered the season with 21 career grabs. In the 2012 opener, he and QB Eric Williams (Portland, Ore.) connected on a school-record, 98-yarder in the second quarter at Georgetown. Sandquist, who has six career TD grabs, scored on his first two collegiate receptions as a freshman in 2010 against Columbia. He is equally famous for his role as shortstop on the 2004 Little League World Series Northwest (Redmond LL) Team.
The 25 rushing attempts by Mordecai Cargill were a team-high this season… Freshman LB Blake Thomson (Franklin, Tenn.) made his first collegiate start against Dartmouth and tied for a team-high with six solos, a TFL and a pass breakup… Yale and Dartmouth had similar offensive stats last week, including 68 offensive plays each, and they both punted just once.
Tony Reno, the Joel E. Smilow'54 Head Coach of Yale football, is in his first head coaching position after cutting his teeth in the Ivy League the last nine seasons. He was a Bulldog assistant under Jack Siedlecki (2002-08) and coached for the Crimson the last three falls. This isn't the first time an Italian-American, former Bulldog assistant in his mid 30s took over the Yale program. Carm Cozza did it in 1965 and amassed an Ivy record 179 wins 32 years later.
The Yale roster included 111 names when players reported to campus on Aug. 15. Fifteen Elis have dropped off that roster since, primarily due to injury. Yale's 95 players are tied with Columbia for the fewest on an Ivy League roster this fall.
Each week the Yale football team elects someone to be its "team leader" for that Saturday. Senior RB Mordecai Cargill earned that honor at Georgetown, while classmate Collin Bibb, a CB, went out for the coin toss at Cornell. FS John Powers (Hamden, Conn.) earned that role against Colgate, OL Roy Collins (Carbondale, Ill.) got the nod against Dartmouth.
Freshman Eric Williams (Portland, Ore.) managed 181 yards in the air last week despite a heavy pass rush. His footwork enabled him to avoid sacks on all but one play. Against Colgate, he rushed for 114 yards and threw for 171 last week to become the first Yale QB to rush for 100 yards since Sept. 21, 2002. Williams has completed better than 64 percent of his passes for 813 yards in four games. He has a 116.61 efficiency rating heading into his fifth collegiate start. Williams, the brother of Yale football players Scott '13 and Sean '11, and the son of former NFL player, Larry (Browns, Patriots, Saints, Chargers), became Yale's first freshman starter behind center since Mike McClellan '01 in the 1997 season opener at home against Brown (McClellan was the first Eli rookie QB to start a varsity game since World War II). Williams was the starting QB at Jesuit High School in Portland for two years before his family moved, and he spent his senior campaign at St. Ignatius near Cleveland. One of the assistant coaches on the St. Ignatius team was former Yale captain Rory Hennessey '05.

The juniors are LT Wes Gavin (6-6, 286, San Diego, Calif.), C John Oppenheimer (6-0, 264, Menlo Park, Calif.) and LT Kyle White (6-7, 268, Pompton Plains, NJ). The sophomores are RG Ben Carbery (6-5, 287, Oak Park, Ill.) and LG William Chism (6-3, 277, Ridgeland, Miss.), while the lone newcomer was RG Luke Longinotti (6-4, 265, Burlingame, Calif.). Gavin and Carbery combined to win freshman MVP honors the last two years.
The starting QB is a newcomer and the top two ground gainers are also first-year Bulldogs. Twenty-two of the team's 85 receptions are from new players. While the class of 2016 has only 16 of the 242 Yale tackles this fall, you can still say the Bulldog newcomers have made a major impact. There are an unprecedented eight new guys on the Yale two-deep depth chart, including six on offense. Fifteen newcomers were on the travel squad the first two weeks, and there have been times with four first-year players on offense at the same time.
Senior WR Derek Russell (Newton, Mass.) has been a patient a loyal Bulldog as he waited for a chance to make an impact for the varsity. Russell, who passed for 2,100 yards and 21 TDs his senior year at Newton South High, has bounced around different positions at Yale before settling into his first collegiate varsity role this fall as the top holder and a backup receiver. At Cornell he caught three passes for 27 yards. Last week he completed one of two passes on fourth-down plays, including an 18-yard score to Dylan Drake in the second quarter. He also ran the ball twice for seven yards while catching two passes for 15 yards.
The league favorite became clear last week at Boston when the Crimson crushed Cornell behind
362 passing yards and four TDs from QB Colton Chapple. Harvard scored 21 fourth-quarter points and picked off two Jeff Mathews passes to remain unbeaten. Everyone else was out of the league on Oct. 6. Brown beat Rhode Island on the road, 17-7, but Columbia (35-17 vs. Lehigh) and Penn (10-7 vs. William & Mary) fell.
All of Yale's non-league games are against Patriot League squads this fall. The Blue beat Georgetown (3-3) and lost to Colgate (2-3) with Lafayette (3-2) left to play.
Three Bulldogs were honored after week one of the season, one from the Ivy and the other from the website collegefootballperformance.com.

CFPA: LB Will McHale, WR Cameron Sandquist (Sept. 15)
RB Tyler Varga (Sept. 29)
Yale Football has a new player lounge on the third floor of Ray Tompkins House replete with couches, tables, desks, games, TVs and life-sized images on the walls.
The Yale helmets have a slight "retro" look this fall with a change in the "Y" on the sides. Instead of having the "Y" outlined with a white line and then an outer blue edge, a thinner blue "Y" now stands alone, showcasing the look from the late 1960s through the 1980s.
The 100th anniversary of Yale Bowl will be celebrated during the 2014 season. Planning for the celebration has just begun. The bulk of the activity will take place on Sept. 27 when the Bulldogs host Army for the first time since 1988 (last meeting was 1996).
For the second straight fall, the Elis hosted Dartmouth and play at Columbia. According to the league, the Ivy schedule format changed in 2008. In order to make the necessary changes and follow the scheduling parameters, these two game sites had to remain for a second straight year.

Former Eli QB Bob Verduzco '90 is a first-year offensive coordinator for the Galesburg-Augusta (Mich.) High School football team that ended a 32-game losing streak on Sept. 20.
Dez Duron '13, a former reserve Yale QB and the team's best singer, took a leave from school last year to pursue a spot on NBC's hit singing show The Voice. He was selected this fall by Christina Aguilera to compete on her team. Despite that, the Bulldogs voted him the "best singer" on the team this fall.
The Yale JV has three games left this fall: Oct. 28 vs. Bridgton Academy; Nov. 4 at Brown and Nov. 16 at Harvard. All games are 1 p.m., while home contests are played at Clint Frank Field.

The Yale Bowl press box has a taste of New Haven with Yorkside Pizza & Restaurant serving slices, pasta and salad to the media on home Saturdays.
Yale was the first football team of any type to reach 800 wins when it beat Dayton 42-6 on Sept. 16, 2000. It wasn't hard for Michigan (896 wins) to catch up playing three or four games more than Yale each season. The Bulldogs are second with 870 victories.
Shane Bannon '11 (Chiefs) and Jake Stoller '12 (Steelers) were in NFL Camps right up to the start of the 2012 regular season. Bannon, an H-Back on the Kansas City practice squad in 2011, suffered an injury midway through this year's camp before being released. Stoller, a defensive lineman, made it all the way to the final day of teams reporting their regular-season rosters.
Three former Bulldogs are coaching in the NFL this season. Dick Jauron '73, who has spent 34 years in the NFL as a player (25 interceptions, Detroit & Cincinnati) and coach, is in his second year as the defensive coordinator for the Cleveland Browns. He has also coached in Jacksonville, Green Bay, Chicago, Detroit, Buffalo and Philadelphia. Jauron, the 2001 AP Coach of the Year with the Bears, was an NFL head coach three times, most recently with the Bills (2006-09). Pat Graham '01, a former Yale tight end and defensive lineman, is a defensive assistant coach for the New England Patriots. He is in his fourth season at Foxboro. Graham, a Waterbury, Conn., native, was a member of Yale's 1999 Ivy title team. Michael McDaniel '05 is in his sixth NFL campaign and second with the Washington Redskins. He also coached the Houston Texans and Denver Broncos.
Yale, which last played in the Golden State in 2005 at the University of San Diego, has another trip to California planned. On Oct. 5, 2013, the Bulldogs will play against Cal Poly Tech at San Luis Obispo. The only two games the Blue has played on the West Coast were against USD.
The Elis are home for a fourth straight week when Penn comes to the Bowl with former Cheshire High School standout Billy Ragone playing quarterback.
The annual survey of Bulldogs produced the anticipated results; Yale is a team full of leaders who produced as much off the field as they did on it. Here is the 2012 breakdown.
50 players were captains of their high school football team
35 players were captains of another sport in high school
41 players were a national honors society member
4 players were class president at their high school
4 players were student body president at their high school
5 players were class valedictorian at their high school
4 players were class salutatorian at their high school
The following Yalies have distinguished themselves according to a vote by their teammates.
OL William Chism (So, Ridgeland, Miss.)… most humorous
TE Michael Leunen (Jr, Portland, Ore.)… most intelligent
TB Mordecai Cargill (Sr, Cleveland, Ohio)… most vocal leader (not captain)
DB John Powers (Sr, Hamden, Conn.)… most likely to be U.S. President
DE Beau Palin (Jr, Oconomowoc, Wis.)… most interesting activity (Capt. America, water skiing)

When it comes to Welsh rugby, define "pope" broadly: Most of the stuff we cover here at Weird Science is inadvertently amusing, but researchers aren't beyond using the literature to have a bit of fun. That was the case with a Garreth Payne, who graced the pages of the BMJ in 2008 with a statistical analysis of whether the lifespan of popes was related to the performance of the Welsh rugby squad. Apparently, there's a saying among the Welsh that "every time Wales win the rugby grand slam, a Pope dies, except for 1978 when Wales were really good, and two Popes died," and Payne concluded that it didn't hold up to careful analysis.
This year, one Edward J. Snelson of the Sheffield Children's Hospital wrote in to point out that Payne may have been too restrictive in his use of the term "pope." "This year saw the death of the Coptic pope, Shenouda III, on the very day that Wales won the grand slam," Snelson notes. He had made it for 41 years in that position after his predecessor, Cyril VI, had died the month that Wales had also won the grand slam. "[Payne's] research has created a false reassurance and may be putting the lives of other popes at risk," Snelson concludes.
Birds turn to agriculture because it turns on the ladies: I was already pretty impressed by bowerbirds, animals that build elaborate structures, with bright objects and tricks of the eye, all to attract a mate. Their work has some staying power, as a single male can maintain a bower for up to a decade. Now, it turns out, the birds may really be thinking long term, as they appear to be cultivating a crop there, if inadvertently. One of their decorations is the fruit of the potato bush, and females prefer nests with lots of these fruit in their ripe, shiny state. As the fruit goes past ripeness, the males clear them out and replace them with new ones.
As a new potato bush grows, it benefits from the birds, which clear out grass and weeds that might otherwise compete with it. And the birds benefit from having a ready source of decoration nearby. Although this cultivation probably isn't intentional, it may be resulting in a domesticated plant, since the ones growing near bowers tend to have shinier fruit than their wild-growing relatives.
That kidney's having a busy month: Most organ transplants have a significant failure rate but, for a specific type of kidney transplant, the odds of failure are about 40 percent. That's because of a disorder with the catchy name of Recurrent Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis. This problem, however, doesn't seem to be inherent to the kidney, but appears to be a result of the body's response to it. So, when a recent kidney recipient started displaying signs of Recurrent Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis, some medics decided to see if the kidney would do better in a new environment. So, two weeks after being transplanted into its first recipient, it was pulled out and put into a second. It worked. The kidney is now functioning properly in its third home.

North Carolina A&T's Irwin Belk Track has become one of the premiere track and field facilities in the country.
In 2013, the Aggies will host the NCAA East Regional Preliminary Round. Every Division I school east of the Mississippi River will compete at Irwin Belk Track. The Aggies also have played host to the National Scholastic Sports Foundation's annual national track and field event for the past seven years. The event, sponsored by New Balance, draws more than 2,000 of the best high school athletes in the nation to A&T.
The Mondo Super X Performance track features eight 48-inch lanes and wide turns. There are two jumping pits, a shot put pit and a water pit for the steeplechase event. The hammer and discus throwers compete just outside Aggie Stadium, and there is a new javelin area being constructed near the stadium.
The other high profile events hosted by A&T include the International Friendship & Freedom Games, the MEAC Outdoor Track and Field Championships, the North Carolina High School Athletic Association 1A, 2A, 3A and 4A Track and Field Championships and the Junior Olympics.
A milestone was reached in 2009 when the Aggies held the U.S. Junior Olympics at North Carolina A&T. The six-day event in July featured more than 7,000 athletes from across the country. More events are scheduled for the state-of-the-art facility.
At the successful 2006 NCAA East Track and Field Regional Championship, A&T became the first historically black college or university to host an NCAA Regional and earned rave reviews for its hospitality and professionalism.
Irwin Belk Track received numerous accolades for its fast track surface and overall facility. Athletes showed how much they loved the facility as 13 regional records and one college record fell at the 2006 NCAA East Regional. The Aggies also hosted the 2009 and '10 NCAA East Regional. North Carolina A&T athletes have even benefited from the facility. Over the last seven years, 21 Aggie athletes have advanced to the NCAA Nationals and five of those athletes earned All-American honors.

AMERICUS - The Georgia Southwestern women's basketball team had four of its five starters score in double digits on Tuesday evening and the Lady Hurricanes connected on over 50 percent of their shots in an 87-46 opening-night win over Truett-McConnell in the Storm Dome.
The Bears fall to 1-2 this season and have lost all five meetings with GSW since the Lady Hurricanes joined the NCAA ranks in 2006.
Junior Shatoria Hudson scored a game-high 16 points to pace Southwestern behind 7 of 10 shooting. Junior transfer Shanedra Lockett pulled down a game-high eight rebounds and added 13 points in her GSW debut. Sophomore Jasmine McSwain scored 14 points and junior Tiara Thompson chipped in 11 in her first game with GSW.
After connecting on a pair of free throws to tie the game at 9-9 early in the first half, Thompson drained a jumper to put GSW ahead for good. The Lady 'Canes proceeded to go on a 32-9 run to close out the half and led 43-18 at the break.
Southwestern hit 6 of 8 attempts from beyond the arc over the final 20 minutes and never gave the Bears an opportunity to get back in the game.
GSW ended the night shooting 51.5 percent from the floor while holding Truett-McConnell to 37.8 percent. The Lady Hurricanes controlled the rebounding battle (36-23), bench points margin (29-16) and dished out 15 more assists (20-5) than the Bears.
Truett-McConnell was led by by Briana Jones' 12 points off the bench. Krista Dixon grabbed a team-high five rebounds and added eight points.
The Lady Hurricanes return to the hardwood on Saturday to host Northwood University (Fla.) in a 4 p.m. contest.

The UK's first Halal make up range has been launched by Muslim business woman, Samina Akhter, called Pure Makeup.
When I think of Halal I usually think of food, but in the context of make up, it means that none of the ingredients will contain alcohol or animal by products. Samina's make up is made in accordance to strict Islamic Law.
I did a quick interview with Samina Akhter to ask her about the rage and also to see what she felt about the people (Daily Mail commenters *cough*!) who thought the range was at odds with Muslim beliefs.
1. What inspired you to start your own make up line?
I wanted to create my own brand of Halal certified makeup because I didn't feel 100% comfortable with the products that where available, I felt that the ingredient lists were not easy to understand and it was difficult to really know what was in the products.
2. Did you create the range with Muslim women in mind (because the range is certified Halal?)
The range was inspired by Muslim women but is not just for Muslim women, it's for all women who want peace of mind with the knowledge that what is going onto their skin is completely pure. The range is also chemical, paraben and preservative free so it's a complete ethical option.
3. I've noticed that you have foundation colours that start from fair – are you hoping to appeal to women of all races?
I'm hoping to attract women of all races all ethnicities and all ages. Women from around the globe would all benefit from using makeup which is in it's purest form
4. There are other mineral make up ranges around that are already 'vegan' friendly – how do you think your range differs from other similar products?
We are different from other Makeup companies because we have no alcohol, no animal products and also no chemicals so this is the complete package. We noticed some companies claim to be animal free but may contain Carmine which is crushed beetles, also it is difficult to know if the raw sources contain any animal or alcohol substances. Our certifying board go back to the raw source and supplier to ensure the whole process complies.
5. What kind of ingredients do you think women should look out for in cosmetics (ie. Animal Byproducts and nasty additives?)
Some common ingredients which may have animal or additives are oleic acid, stearic acid and glycerin. In addition substances such as collagen, elastin and keratin could have come from Pig placenta.
6. Finally – I have seen some comments about this range, saying that it isn't necessarily a 'Muslim' thing to wear excessive make up because of the Islamic views on the importance of modesty.
Do you feel that having a make up range that is 'Halal' is in anyway contradictory? Or is it simply fulfilling a realistic need of the modern British Asian woman?
In Islam It is considered good for a wife to make the effort to look attractive for her Husband while also maintaining a modest appearance when in public. There are plenty of family and women only occasions where Muslim Women can wear what they want. The truth is both practicing and non practicing Muslim women wear makeup, if so then why not provide a Halal option. Our range gives women choices.
Thanks so much to Samina who answered my questions, even though it's been very busy on her end, with all the press attention!
I think it's a fantastic idea, not just for Muslim women but for anyone who wants a make up product that is free of animal products, preservatives and alcohol. The range has colours for fair skintones as well as dark so it seems to me that the brand has considered women of all colour.
I would definitely buy things from this range to try, especially the bright eyeshadows!
What do you guys think of this make up range? Does it inspire you to buy?
You can view the range here.
