This game contains mature content, such as explicit profanity, blood/gore, and adult themes. Player discretion is advised and whatnot.

Illuminated Badassery
is a highly comical, somewhat satirical (due to poking fun at several things, such as pop culture and... well, itself) and lighthearted action RPG, that, as aforementioned, contains mature content throughout, so obviously it's aimed at late teens and adults (though anyone can play it as no one pays attention to discretion anyway!). To compromise for its tone, the visuals are almost completely cartoonish, with some facesets I've drawn myself and edited, (simplistically, though, to keep in touch with the humor) along with several edits to character sprites. The story and game in general are not supposed to be overly complex, but still at least able to keep the player's attention throughout. This is my fourth foray into RPG making, though you might still see a few amateur-ish mistakes here and there. I've still done my best to keep everything as stream-lined as possible, in any case. Feel free to point out bugs and stuff; I'm pretty open to criticism, though don't be too harsh.
The city of Futoria is being threatened by the evil Hairy, a half-beetle, half-alien menace. Everyone is scared out of their wits, and no one is rising up to this diabolical creature. Who (or what) can save this poor city? WHO?!
That is an answer for another time... or hell, now; Joe Carter Mard, a brave young snowman that looks uncannily similar to Jack Frost, decides to rise to the challenge and defeat this malicious bastard for the sake of his city. Will he be successful in his endeavors?
Only time can tell. But one thing's for sure; he's totally bringing his best friends, as this is going to be badass.
The game's most story-wise important area is Futoria, a half-modern, half-futuristic city (the world this takes place in is Earth, though thus far it is not important to the plot), and the area the main antagonist, Hairy, threatens the most. The game's main hub (not introduced until a little while into the game) is the Portal, a small beach-like link to 8 other areas the main characters are forced to explore and protect (though it is possible to unlock optional areas). It is run by a small piranha named Jawger. Overall, though, the most important area in the game is Futoria, as it is the home of Joe Mard and his bros.
Joesph Carter Mard
Age: 18
Species: Snowman
Other fact: He looks like Jack Frost on purpose... yeah.
The game's main (anti)hero. He is a foul-mouthed, occasionally unintelligent, perverted, mischievous, and sarcastic douchebag. However, he's willing to save his city (and, evidently, the world) on account of the fact that the guy threatening it is a douche himself, and he considers being one "his job". Deep down, he's fairly noble, nice and heroic, but on most occasions he simply doesn't want to show these traits, and would rather adopt the persona of a stereotypical jock (but you have to admit; jocks are awesome).
Broski Broham Broster (also known as "Mr. Dudelicious")
Age: 18
Species: Human
Other fact: He wears nothing but boxer shorts because he likes being half-naked. Go figure.
Joe's best friend. He's known him since childhood and has always hung out with him, along with Jabron (Joe's other best friend who will be described shortly). He is a human that prefers to be half-naked for the hell of it, and formerly resided in Texas, hence his Southern accent and archetypical hillbilly nature. His kind (though impulsive and loud) nature serves as a contrast to Joe's unfavorable nature, though he occasionally acts mischievous when he feels it's absolutely necessary. Overall, though, he's the most level-headed of the main characters.
Jabron Mohammed Elf
Age: 20
Species: Elf (half African American)
Other fact: He's ballin'. And he looks like DMX.
Joe's other best friend that has also known him since childhood, along with Broski. He constantly spouts Ebonics due to being born in Atlanta and being half-black (yes, that means he has a particular fondness of the n-word; racial term haters beware). He is also extremely obnoxious and perverted, along with loud and being quick to anger. However, he has a big heart and does not believe in holding grudges (though he makes villains an exception). Due to being an elf, he has the natural ability of communicating with other chimeras and animals, which definitely proves useful at several points in the main characters' adventure.
Enurji Model 4200
Age: ???
Species: Energy sphere with robotic features
Other fact: He likes Bill Nye. Be friends with him already!
A former veteran henchman of Hairy who joins Joe and his friends during a protection sequence in one of the areas they go to. He is, as stated before, an energy sphere with robotic features implemented in him. He is the most intelligent of the group, but also has a tendency to swear and act juvenile. Regardless, he is the eyes of the group and helps them out constantly throughout the game, even when they don't need it.
Skeeter King
Local Futoria guard who befriends Joe and friends. However, he's often manipulated into allowing access to the outskirts by the group, somewhat diminishing his job. He doesn't really mind, however, as he's a mostly chill dude (as Joe puts it).
Jawger Piranha
A major ally of Joe and friends. He manages the Portal, the beach-like link to the 8 areas around the world the group must temporarily protect, along with their own home. Mostly polite and helpful, but occasionally becomes annoyed at the stupidity of the four. All in all, though, he greatly respects the group for rising up to the diabolical Hairy.
Noteworthy fact
Although Jawger is unplayable throughout the majority of the game, through the usage of a special item, you can ultimately make him playable. This makes him one of the six (that's right; six) optional characters.
Scott Mard
Joe's older brother who stole his PlayStation Vita because he's a gigantic asshat. Although initially against helping the four, he'll eventually help if you have a personal conversation with him.
Doug Richards
A professional wrestler, animal tamer, writer, actor, football/baseball player and overall celebrity. As you might suspect, he's extremely popular in Futoria and the world in general. This dude is comparable to Stone Cold because of how husky he is, bro; seriously. Although fairly arrogant (rightfully so, given his popularity), he is a heroic individual deep down and assuming you meet him at the right time and right place, he'll join your party without question.
Sophie "Jessica" Spring
A friendly, but ditzy and overly dramatic diva who is also a massive, MASSIVE whore. She lives with her millions of boyfriends in a hotel/bar, and depending on the circumstances, she'll join your party. Oh... and she has big titties. That's a plus too, right?
Violet Spring
Sophie's beloved sister. While much more intelligent and serious than her older sibling, she loves her dearly and would not trade her for the best step-sister ever. She's not nearly as into sex as her sister is, but occasionally will show off a nip here and there if she feels like it. She'll join the group, but only if you do a few things for her.
A typical jungle-dwelling monkey that loves bananas more than anything... like, ever. Seriously, give him any type of banana (ANY type) and he'll go apeshit (no pun intended). He might even join your party!
Outside of his banana obsession, Oscar is a very snarky little chimp that'll often make profane comments at the expense of his friends. Ultimately, though, he has a big heart and is very protective of his loved ones.
Age: Believed to be hundreds of years old
Species: Beetle/Alien
Other fact: Likes Pizza Hut.
The main antagonist of the game, and Joe's fated archenemy. He is believed to be of very old age, having existed around the time of Joe's dad, Stan Mard, who was his archrival. Believing Joe to be just as much of a threat as Stan, Hairy is hellbent on killing him by any means necessary. Joe hates him on the grounds of being "today's douche", and is equally dedicated to removing him from existence.
Age: 30
Species: Human/Cyborg
Other fact: Is badass as shit.
One of Hairy's top henchmen, and partner of Sorrow. He has a WW2 soldier attitude, and is therefore extremely loyal to Hairy, considering himself an enemy of Joe. His half-robotic body allows him to emit a bone-shattering death cry and fiery bursts in combat. He has no fears, and will kill anyone to accomplish his goals, bar his companions.
Age: ???
Species: Robot
Other fact: Also badass as shit.
One of Hairy's top henchmen, and partner of Doom. He is a cold-blooded, soulless, cruel, and arrogant robot bearing a resemblance to Iron Man (to semi-parody him). He also shares a long-time rivalry with Stan Mard, having often paired with Hairy years ago to mess with him emotionally. He is just as determined about his goals as Doom is. He also shares a close friendship with him, often calling him "one of my best friends".
-5-10 hours of gameplay, depending on whether you decide to take in all the sidequests or just rush through the story mode
-action RPG gameplay via Vampyr SBABS 12 (possible engine change in the future) with plenty of bosses and enemies to tear up
-great deals of comic relief; the game is very rarely legitimately serious, so this might be the game to play if you're looking for something lighthearted
-DMX Tetris and Doritos Pong (no... not joking)
-several puzzles, ranging from escaping saws in a lava room to running up a staircase in a limited amount of time to button-pressing puzzles to trivia questions to even an escape sequence!
-the game utilizes Jet's Stamina System, meaning you can only run when you feel it is 100% necessary; conserve dem Stamina Points!
-OriginalWij's Basket Shop script is used to add a bit of flavor to typical shopping
-special save points called "Save-O-Trons" are used to give the game a bit more of a console feel; the option to save is completely eliminated in the game's main menu as well to further that feel
-8 dir movement, if that's your thing
-you can take screenshots via F5! (for when you wanna gloat about your character's ultra-awesome stats or post bugs or whatever; praise convenience)
-mostly custom content, with some RTP stuff used (graphics), but very little RTP sound effects are used, and no RTP music is used (I honestly can't stand EITHER, but I'm fine with RTP graphics as long as they aren't criminally overused)
-deposit/storage system for when your inventory is full of items you don't need/want
-varied/insane soundtrack
(Because screenshots make everything cooler; and trust me, I've got quite a few)
Updated: NEW screenshots!
The new title screen
Yes, Drunken Paladin reference
(If it's too many screenshots, let me know; I'll take down several)
Game overall: ...
I spent a long, hard time making the game, so I hope you all enjoy it.
If the game is successful enough, I might consider making DLCs, and
a full-on sequel if the DLCs are well-received too.
Because even the most badass games must have at least one bug:
-visual glitches in combat here and there; I honestly dunno how to fix these. For now, tho, Escing to the main menu and back out generally fixes them, and even then I've only occasionally encountered them in play-testing so they shouldn't be much more than just noticeable issues
-maybe an NPC/event bug or two, I dunno; if any come up, lemme know; I shall fix them if referenced in posts
-equip menu occasionally bugs out, causing the entire game to crash (
I deeply apologize if I miss anyone.

Official download (v 1.3, see below for changes)
BGM folder
Or alternatively
Audio folder as a whole
1.3/Current version
-many map edits have been done so it is subtly more obvious where to go and what to do
-first battle against Hairy is slightly modified so Hairy doesn't block your hits as much
-several dialogue edits
-BGM stays the same once again, transfer as necessary
-a few map edits to spice things up
-MAJOR edit regarding optional party members; the party manager is now unlocked via a switch in the 'ur fatyt' area, removing the need to unlock Scott to get the manager in the first place. You can still only acquire each party member at a certain time, however
-some dialogue edits
-BGM folder has stayed the same, as I've not added any additional tracks (...yet[?]). Just transfer the BGM folder from 1.1 to the Audio folder and whatnot
-fixed intro so it goes at a more reasonable speed
-clarified how the shop works
-removed a major error in the Portal, where the helpers only appear if you say you don't know what the other areas are called
-removed the Ammo window due to its pointless inclusion
-edited every Save-O-Tron so they only tell their jokes once, eliminating need to mash Enter/Z to save
-minor edits to enemy stats
The BGM and game folders are separate to accommodate for Mediafire's 200 MB limit for free users; the game has over 110+ tracks, so yeah. Just place the BGM folder in the Audio folder and you should be good to go.

State asylum in Pontiac among historic landmarks lost to history
Many times, we look at historic landmarks and trust they will be preserved for future generations to see and enjoy.
Since 1970, at least 1,750 historical landmarks have been removed from the National Register of Historic Places, and faced demolition. In Philadelphia, an effort is underway to preserve and mark boxer Joe Frazier's gym.
Already in Oakland County, the Eastern Michigan Asylum Historic District in Pontiac has been lost forever.
Once a historic landmark, the site was demolished in 2000 and the land eventually become a residential neighborhood where it once stood on Elizabeth Lake Road near Telegraph Road.
The complex, which once spanned more than 800 acres, held various names throughout the years — the Eastern Michigan Asylum for the Insane, Eastern Michigan Asylum, the Pontiac State Hospital and eventually Clinton Valley Center.
Bruce Annett Jr., a professor at Lawrence Tech University, wrote a book on the site called "Asylum: Pontiac's Grand Monument from the Gilded Age."
Annett said the complex was designed by architect Elijah E. Meyers, who was known for his Victorian Gothic styles in the 19th century.
Meyers designed many government buildings, including the state capitol in Texas, Colorado and Michigan, Annett said.
Some groups fought to keep the buildings.
"There was a core group of people in the community and the region who fought on them," Annett said. "There were some lawsuits, which failed. Earlier, in the 1980s, the County of Oakland and City of Pontiac proposed some options for reuse (commercial and residential) ... by the time the buildings were vacated, there was a change in administration in Pontiac, and for some reason no viable proposals emerged." Continued...
The architecture, and the fact the complex was once a historical landmark did little to save the buildings from being demolished.
"In the end, when the buildings were torn down, in the year 2000, there were several hundred acres and about 80 buildings dating back to the 19th century," Annett said. "The buildings were torn down even though they were on the National Register of Historic Places ... they are not protected (by that)."
To Annett, the buildings were a huge loss for the City of Pontiac.
"I do believe the razing of the buildings was a loss for the community," Annett said. "They had potential for adaptive reuse. In other communities, for example in Traverse City, they have a large (former asylum) complex that is being reused ... it's developing as an attraction. The buildings in Pontiac were more ornate and interesting than the ones in Traverse City, however we've lost them here."
The area where they stood was bulldozed beyond recognition.
"The land was actually scraped clean and reconfigured ... now there's a residential development there," Annett said, adding he would have loved to see what the buildings could have become.
"I was told the Pontiac buildings could have been readily adapted for new uses, not as a hospital, but for reuse," Annett said. "When they were built, they were built with large chases and flues put into the buildings — those could have been used to run electrical and digital wiring or gas lines and utility-type items between floors so it would have enhanced their viability for adaptive use."
But now, the old Pontiac Asylum only exists as a memory in photographs.

Readings on the U.S. economy will be front and center this week, as investors try to gauge whether central bank action will take hold.
Economic data has come under even more scrutiny since the Federal Reserve announced that it would pump more money into the economy through the purchase of mortgage bonds in a third round of quantitative easing, popularly known as QE3.
Since the Fed's decision leaves the size and duration of the stimulus open-ended, any improvement or slowdown in the economy could impact how much and how long the central bank intervenes. This, analysts say, explains why investors are putting so much emphasis on each economic indicator.
"Since QE3 was announced, the focus has backed off of Europe and onto the U.S. economy," said Joe Bell, senior equity analyst with Schaeffer's Investment Research. "This week, there will be a lot of focus on data to get a feel on whether the economy is improving at all."
Investors will get a close look at consumer sentiment on Tuesday when the Bureau of Labor Statistics releases its 2011 consumer expenditure survey.
Consumer confidence numbers are also expected Tuesday. Last month's reading tumbled to the lowest level since November, driven down by growing concerns over the job market and the outlook for business conditions.
Reports on personal spending and personal income are out Friday.
This week will also bring more data on the housing market, which has been a bright spot amid otherwise disappointing economic data this year. Reports on mortgages, housing prices and new home sales are on tap throughout the week.
A third reading on gross domestic product, the broadest measure of the nation's economic health, is due out Thursday. The Commerce Department's last revision of the second-quarter number was revised upward to an annual rate of 1.7% from the 1.5% originally reported.
While the upward revision was slightly encouraging, the economy still grew at a slower pace during the second quarter than during the first.

Sometimes the trail leads back to the person who swiped the iPhone; other times it leads to an unwitting owner of stolen property.
While the officers on the NYPD's smartphone squad don't focus exclusively on Apple products, they do spend most of their time chasing stolen iPhones or iPads, "simply because the number of Apple thefts is a reflection of their general popularity," Browne said.
Law-enforcement agencies like the NYPD aren't alone in targeting smartphone and tablet theft. The industry is taking steps to address it, too.
In a letter to the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, the wireless industry's trade association last year released details of a voluntary effort to "help law enforcement deter smartphone theft."
A major plank of that effort is the creation of a database for smartphones that are reported stolen. Phones on the database, which is scheduled to be up and running at the end of November, would be barred being activated or provided service on an LTE network in the United States.

Indianapolis Star apologizes for illustration
of Duke's Mike Krzyzewski with devil horns
Simple question this morning as we await tonight's national semifinals in the NCAA Tournament:
Who do you want to see play in the championship game?
Had a spirited debate on our radio show Friday whereby co-host Scott Adams and executive producer Brian Fritz said most Americans want to see a Duke-Michigan State final. I disagreed vehemently. I believe Duke-Butler is the final everybody wants to see because it pits the ultimate underdog against the ultimate symbol of college basketball royalty.
We will settle this like men — via the wildly popular Open Mike poll.

Braun Silk-epil SoftPerfection Epilator
Carolyn B.Finally!I wish I had found this years ago. I have a serious chin hair problem and have been shaving it. It took about a week of everyday treatment with this product to get it all but now it's just a quick every other day session that lasts seconds. The individual hair regrowth varies so each time I'm not removing very much. Except for that first week, there is really no pain at all, just a tugging sensation.posted Sep 18, 2012Link to this post
ElaineHairThick or Coarse HairEpilatorLove it as it does the job and I feel clean after use.posted Oct 27, 2011Link to this post
JennahI Am Impressed!This is my very first epilator. I must say, although it really does hurt (as plucking out multiple hairs at once would) it works amazing, and I am impressed! The pain is tolerable, and actually seems to be less and less painful as the minutes pass. I used it on my arms so far, and will try it on my legs next... then under arms and bikini area once I work up some courage!! I am looking forward to seeing how long it takes for my hair to grow back... hope it's a while!
posted Mar 29, 2011Link to this post -
Doris C.WisconsinLove It.I totally love this product its the best. It hurts like heck the first couple of times you use it honestly the pain is awful. But as time goes by the pain is not even felt. The hair will start to grow back very light and thin, and it takes over two months for me to grow the hair back. My first Braun Silk-epil my daughter fell in love with it so I gave it to her, and got a new one for myself. My daughters friends all love how the Braun Silk-epil left the skin so they all got one for themselves. For a day or so you will have a little reddness but after that the skin will be soft and silky.posted Oct 11, 2010Link to this post
VeeballonReally GoodI have been using epilator for a long time When i needed to get a new one ,there was so much choice that it was hard to decide!In the end i chose this one and i am very happy about it .It is less painful that the one i used to have ,it does a good job ,i definitely recommand it .posted Apr 2, 2010Link to this post
A Happy CustomerVancouver, BCIt's Great!I just bought mine recently after having a friend rave about it for months on end. I highly recommend it. I am no expert as I have not tried other models, however I have so far done my legs, bikini, upper lip and arm pits. Bikini line has lasted the longest, the skin is still smooth and hair less. I did armpits tonight and it hurts like hell, however, worth it to have no stubble, hopefully for a couple weeks. Not sure why everyone doesnt own an epilator. Warning, it does hurt, however it is bareable and it gets better even after a few minutes, and apparently if you use it regularly the pain becomes more tolerable, like waxing. Definitely a great purchase.posted Mar 13, 2009Link to this post
LyndseyGeorgiaI Love It!i love this.!! i have been using this for nearly a year now and it still works great! and now i dont have to use it as often because my hair is not growing as quickly!! i usually epilate at night, and then the next night i do it again because i always find hairs that i missed but it works great!!!!!posted Nov 4, 2008Link to this post
ShannonNot What I ExpectedAfter reading countless reviews on many different epilators, I decided to buy this one because it wasnt too expensive. I was very disappointed with the results. It did remove some hair, but only cut most of them. I will be returning mine soon and trying a different one.posted Mar 30, 2008Link to this post
SandraEdmonton, AlbertaWorth The Moneyi bought this today an couldnt wait to try it out. first i did my legs and it left a few stray hair but i was overal pleased also there was very minimal pain (very low pain tolerance)really jus an uncomfortable pinch every so often. i then decided to use it on my bikini..and while it hurt more it was still bearable and had the same effect as my legs..i got a little redness but its to be expected when ur ripping out hair. would recommend to others worth the $60 an will post another review in a few months to state extended use and progressposted Oct 25, 2007Link to this post
DominiqueAll Over USAPretty GoodThis product works pretty good. Ive had it about a year now and it went with me while I lived on the road. I was scarred about using it. I used to wax often. It does hurt a bit but the pain is bearable. My hair grows pretty fast but I would say I was smooth about a week or two. Does not get all the hair and takes a bit of time but its worth it I guess. Im looking to upgrade now. I think I have gotten my moneys worth out of it. Definitely has saved me a pretty penny.posted Sep 9, 2007Link to this post

Thanks for pointing out the error, we have corrected it in the text above. Apologies for the mistake.
yo Frank if you're going to write an article about us, next time make sure you have no bias; "juvenile humor for booger-eating morons drenched in soda pop," really ? because you know us personally, right? The sarcasm you display throughout this article is very apparent. While you might think of it as a joke, think of "us" the fam, as a joke, we still are human and deserve respect.
from, Rachel (aka AviLeTTe)
I like the Anderson Stingrays. They were asked to play the show by Joe Queer and that really says a lot. I think these guys rule.
For those who won't be attending Friday's RPO concert, stop by Nazareth College Arts Center when the Pipes and Drums of the Black Watch 3rd Battalion (the Royal Regiments of Scotland) and the Band of the Scots Guards present a program entitled British Isles of Wonder, celebrating the music of Ireland, Scotland, England, and Wales. The program will also include an armed forces tribute. The show starts at 8 p.m.; artscenter.naz.edu.
Too bad they got the original opener booted off the bill.
Anderson Stingrays are literally the worst band in town. I love pop punk, and they are horrible at it. Teenage Bottlerocket and Masked Intruder are far and away the best bands on this show, and they barely get a mention?
The are also three great local bands opening and promoting this show....Nasty Trast....INTOX.......Steel Kingdom
Max Creek is great, Water Street... not so much. Unfortunately they seem to have a monopoly on the Rochester music scene for a venue of that size. Drinks are WAY overpriced ($5-$6 for a 12oz keg beer in a plastic cup). $25 cover for a headliner that doesn't take the stage until 11pm and then plays maybe 2 hours... It's Water Street's way of forcing you (and your money) to spend the entire night at their venue. I'd much rather see headline acts go on around 8pm and play 'til 11pm w/ a short set break. Water Street sux.
The bands still have pre show tickets available for folks who are ready to spend night or two out groovin' to some great music!
Hoping to make this, and see some fellow friends there as well!!! <3
hey i am not sure but i don't think Cheetah Chrome and Richard Lloyd are in this band
While I consider it a great pity, neither Cheetah or myself have had anything to do with David Thomas' version of "Rocket from the Tombs".
David is smart enough to put together musicians that will not completely disappoint ticketholders, but it is not enough simply say that we are touring with them, when the complete opposite is true. Neither Richard Lloyd nor Cheetah Chrome will be touring with this faux RFTT. I hope to God it's a great show and I wish David well but I also wish you would tell his booking agent the truth, the advertisement is incorrect and sleazy.
Yours – Richard Lloyd
Cheetah Chrome and Richard Llloyd are NOT WITH RFTT ANYMORE.
Don: The information is in the article, in the infobox to the right. But I'll past it here for you: Saturday, September 1, at the German House, 315 Gregory St. 7 P.M. | $50-$85 | 442-6880, upallnightpresents.com
Where? When? Never mind why.

Written by Jeff Mackey
Following a vigorous PETA campaign, Air China has confirmed that it's joining nearly every other airline worldwide by refusing to transport monkeys to laboratories. The airline's decision comes less than 24 hours after PETA asked its Facebook and Twitter followers to call Air China Cargo's main office at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport and demand that the airline stop shipping primates to laboratories—a move that prompted thousands of phone calls to the company.
Percita|cc by 2.0
PETA's work to bring about this policy change dates back to last year and has included pleas to company officials, complaints to the government, phone and email protests and a demonstration at Air China's office at Los Angeles International Airport. Last month, PETA filed a complaint with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) after a laboratory-bound monkey escaped aboard an Air China flight. The USDA cited the airline, China's largest and their flagship carrier, for violating federal animal welfare laws and warned that subsequent violations could result in civil penalties or criminal prosecution for Air China.
This victory is also due to the thousands of members and supporters who responded to PETA's action alert—resulting in at least 24,000 e-mails to Air China's offices around the world—and to everyone who flooded Air China's offices at JFK airport with calls asking the airline to stop shipping monkeys to laboratories.
China is the source of more than 70 percent of monkeys imported to the U.S. for use in cruel experiments—and with Air China no longer participating in this bloody trade, experimenters will find it harder to get their hands on more victims.
There's still more work to be done! Please take a minute now to urge the tiny handful of airlines that still transport monkeys to laboratories to join Air China and its peers in adopting a policy against transporting primates destined for experiments.

If you have a general question for PETA and would like a response, please e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com. If you need to report cruelty to an animal, please click here. If you are reporting an animal in imminent danger and know where to find the animal and if the abuse is taking place right now, please call your local police department. If the police are unresponsive, please call PETA immediately at 757-622-7382 and press 2.

Chairwomen of the Boards: Lewisville owns the glass in 48-31 win over East
BY Kevin Hageland, firstname.lastname@example.com
It took a month for the Lewisville girls basketball team to get their first win.
Now, they have back-to-back victories.
The Lady Farmers (2-12) picked up another win Friday night against former District 8-5A running mate Plano East, 48-31, thanks to a dominating 45-16 advantage on the glass.
East (7-9) could have used such opportunities as it was cold most of the night.
"I don't need to look at the stats to know this was probably our lowest shooting percentage of the season from all parts of the court," said LaGwenna Morrow, East head coach.
The combination of poor East shooting and Lewisville's rebounding control led to an 11-5 Lady Farmers lead after one quarter. That advantage jumped to 21-5 early in the second as Lewisville broke off 10 straight points with back-to-back buckets from senior Ashley Campbell, who had seven points, and a putback by senior Jada Butts.
"Versus those taller teams, the fundamentals are big," Morrow said. "And those second chances and second shot attempts really hurt us."
So did Butts.
While the senior scored eight points, she was most effective on the boards with almost as many rebounds (15) as the East team.
"Just having Jada on the floor keeps us balanced," Jones said. "But she has also been playing really well and continually sacrifices for the betterment of the team."
East, meanwhile, had trouble breaking the Lewisville defense. And when the Lady Panthers did so, their shots were often unsuccessful, allowing the Lady Farmers to take their largest lead of the half at 27-9 after Campbell made a basket and then drew a charge.
"You get so proud of the girls when they run the offense or are able to penetrate," Morrow said, "but then you're disappointed when they miss the shot."
Some of that can be chalked up to inexperience.
East was already light on returners to start the season and that has gotten worse with senior Celina Eddins no longer on the team and senior Jasmine Caston nursing a ligament strain.
"We're thinking Jasmine will be cleared in time for the Christmas tournaments," Morrow said. "And we definitely think she'll be back by district."
Without Caston, East has been relying on a cast of players new to varsity. None of them reached double figures Friday, but sophomore Doneesha Corbin came the closest with nine points. That included six straight points for East in the second quarter.
"Corbin has been very solid, very consistent for us since she came up to varsity," Morrow said. "If I could get everyone to catch the Corbin train, we'd be fine."
East got four points from juniors Azia Lacy, Lyntoria Watson, sophomore Tyra Gatson and freshman Daria McCutcheon. Warren also led the Lady Panthers with eight rebounds while Gatson hit a shot at the buzzer to bring her team within 31-17 at the half.
East would never get within 12 points in the second half though.
This despite 35 Lewisville turnovers, 21 of which came in the final two quarters. East only scored three points in the third though and trailed, 39-20, going into the final frame.
"We got good pressure going on defense," Morrow said, "we just couldn't finish offensively."
"We've been battling with turnovers all season," Jones added. "That has played a big part in the majority of our losses, so we've been talking with the girls about staying patient and executing."
Lewisville did enough of that, especially on the glass, to close out the 48-31 victory. The Lady Farmers got six points and five boards from freshman Naomi Hawkins, five points from junior Elizabeth Simon and four points and six rebounds from senior Precious Agu in the win, their second straight.
"This bunch has a lot of potential," Jones said. "And they are starting to play with more confidence and depend on each other."
Lewisville returns to action at 7 p.m. Monday when it hosts Rowlett while East is on the road at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday against Hebron.
"You can't always sugarcoat everything by saying we have until January when district starts," Morrow said. "We are young and sometimes the learning curve goes with the intensity of the game, but our intensity was not there when the ball was jumped tonight."

This year I'm going to try to drum up more southern California hockey support. It's ridiculous in a state with 38 million people for me to be the only one.
C'mon guys, check out the official website, read about the team, learn to love them, root for them with me, etc.: http://kings.nhl.com/
[EDIT] P.S. I'm liking what I'm reading about defenseman Drew Doughty. L.A. had a great defense last year. Let's hope this signing helps anchor the defense for a while.

Wiesmann Takes The Future BMW M5 Engine
The engine that will power the upcoming BMW M5 is already entered in Wiesmann range, in a less strong version. The V8 twin-turbo unit developing 407 HP, respectively 555 HP for MF4 and MF5 models.
Wiesmann, the niche models automaker announced that it will replace the V10 engine from MF4 and MF5 models with a V8 twin-turbo engine that develops 407 HP, respectively 555 HP. The unit will allow for the MF4 model to accelerate from 0-60 mph in 4.6 seconds and reach a top speed of 181 mph. In the case of MF5 model, the acceleration from 0 to 60 mph is achieved in 3.9 seconds and the top speed is 193 mph. The MF5′s engine is taken directly from BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M and will be used later by the future BMW M5 F10.
The reason for removal the V10 engine from the Wiesmann range, is behind to stop production of this engine. The unit was built by the guys from BMW for M5 and M6 models, and the guys from Wiesmann integrated on MF4 and MF5 models. To better distinguish the two models, the V8 twin-turbo unit is offered in two versions of power. The future BMW M5 F10 will be even stronger than the two coupes from Wiesmann, but the exactly power is not disclosed yet.
While his "big brothers" were passed to twin-turbo engines, Wiesmann MF3 keep the six-cylinder configuration. A natural step for this model would be to pass to the N55 twin-turbo engine of 3.0-liters, which would give a high level of power and torque with great efficiency. There are big chances that this step take place in coming months, but the guys from Wiesmann could replace the Wiesmann MF3 model and introduces the powerful engine on his successor.

In a historic turnaround, the ballot box is showing America's shifting attitudes about same-sex marriage. After gay marriage rights died at the polls dozens of times in the past, on Tuesday they passed in at least two states.
Rarely do popular votes reflect such dramatic social changes.
The result: Maryland and Maine will now allow couples like Chyrino Patane and James Trinidad to tie the knot.
The Maryland couple has been together for seven years, and now, after the historic vote, they plan to marry in the next six months to a year.
"Both families will be at the wedding," Patane said.
But the win was hard fought and the margin of victory was small.
"We've lost at the ballot box 32 times," said Paul Guequierre of Human Rights Campaign. "History was made tonight."
In Maine, Erica Tobey and Ali Ouellette wed in September, but only now will the women's marriage be recognized under Maine law.
"It's hard to overstate the national significance of this vote," Marc Solomon, campaign director at Freedom to Marry, said of the Maine referendum.
In Maryland, where just 51.9% of voters approved gay marriage rights, "It was a little bit pins and needles," said Human Rights Campaign's Kevin Nix. "It was going to be a close call all along."
