The dispicamus monkey was once believed to be extinct. It appeared as if Jim Tressel and his mighty Ohio State Buckeyes were sitting on top of the world when Ohio State defeated Notre Dame 34-20 in the 2006 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. The win was Ohio State's fourth consecutive BCS bowl victory, and a convincing one at that. The conference supremacy arguments were at a stand still. The BigTen had a respectable bowl record against the other BCS conferences, and Ohio State's two consecutive losses to South Carolina in bowl games were history, history that Ohio State had put behind them. Tressel still had the weight of the world on his shoulders, but there was no monkey in sight. No one had seen the monkey in years.
Fast forward to January 8th, 2007. Ohio State entered the National Championship as a touchdown favorite. Ted Ginn Jr. took the opening kick-off 100 yards to the house - the monkey was the last thing on the minds of the Ohio State faithful. Just then, like a theif in the night, the monkey jumped out of the stands and into the celebration huddle, twisted Ted Ginn's ankle, and later, ran off with Troy Smith's arm. He also tied together the offensive lines' shoe-laces. I swear I heard him giggling on my surround sound. The result(a 41-14 defeat) would resonate for years, and the Tressel Monkey(gatorus dispicamus) would appear in Ohio State forums, message boards, and casual conversation like a pop-up on meetlocalsdotcom. After every victory, after every defeat, whenever Ohio State showed up on the sidelines, or on sportscenter, the Tressel Monkey followed. At times, the Bucks had the monkey in their crosshairs.To read more or comment...
Thanks for tuning into the inaugural edition of BuckNews!
The first topic today is the second, yes, second shooting of Ohio State DE commitment Jamel Turner. You may recall that Turner was shot about two months ago. He was doing well after being wounded by two bullets in that shooting - until today's AP release stated that Turner was shot again while at a house in Youngstown, and is apparently in critical condition at an area hospital. It appears as if Turner's life, and football career, may both be in jeopardy. Both incidents could be gang related. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Jamel and his family. He's not the only Buckeye who's football future is in question.To read more or comment...
When you consider the addition of Nebraska, the rivalries, historic trophies, and regional locations of the other BigTen Schools, it's not difficult to come up with the Divisions. Here they are. These will take effect next season.
In the parenthesis there are two numbers... the first, their seed for this season(of course Nebraska isn't playing in the bigten this season so it's hypothetical), the second number is the approximate seeding for all-time production. The West! Nebraska(3/3)) Iowa(2/5)) Wisconsin(4/7) Northwestern(8/10] Minnesota(9/11) Illinois(12/8] 6.84ave
The East! Ohio St.(1/2)) Michigan(5/1)) Penn St.(6/4) Michigan St.(7/6) Purdue(11/9) Indiana(10/12) 6.17ave
The first thing to note is that Nebraska helps balance things out by adding another strong team in the West. You cannot break up Ohio State/Michigan... it's not the argument about being able to play every yr even though they're in different divisions.... the fact is you have to keep them in the same division because the traditionalists, and the Ohio State/Michigan fans DO NOT want to see a rematch of the biggest rivalry in College Football. Quit thinking it - it will NEVER happen. They'll be in the same division, the game will remain as each teams' final regular season game, and now it will likely have a conference championship game berth on the line - as if the game needed anymore excitement. And don't think that Penn St. won't always be in the mix in the East - because more often than not, they will. While the East has the two strongest teams traditionally, they also have the two weakest. This format also keeps most of the traditional 'Trophy' rivalries intact.
Look at it.... it's practically perfect... The Heartland Trophy between Iowa/Wisconsin = Still intact. The Old Oaken Bucket between Indiana and Purdue = still intact. The Sweet Sioux/Land of Lincoln Trophy between Ill/NW = still intact. Floyd of Rosedale between Iowa/Minn = still intact. Paul's axe between Minn/Wisc = still intact, and his trophy between Mich/MSU ALSO = still intact. These games will continue to be played on an annual basis. The only historic trophy that would be lost(at least on an annual basis).... The inauspicious 'Illibuck' trophy.... perhaps the least recognized of the bunch. So you see, not only is the Mich/OSU rivalry kept where every BigTen fan wants it, but all those historic trophies stay intact under this division.
For those worried about the integration of Division play.... DON'T. TO use the Ohio State 2011 schedule as an example... NOT A SINGLE GAME ON THEIR ENTIRE SCHEDULE would have to be changed... rt now all 5 other teams in their division are already on the schedule, as well as 3 from the other division. It will stay that way... 8 conference games... 5 in-division and 3 out of division(which will rotate between teams from the other division).
As for the Championship game.... Put Indianapolis as the odds-on favorite. Other possibilities include Cincinnati, Chicago, and Detroit.To read more or comment...

The top rated dual-threat quarterback in the nation(according to rivals) verbally committed to Ohio State on Thursday. Braxton Miller was coveted by Alabama and Florida, but when the time came to announce his college choice, he decided to stay at home and play for the Buckeyes. Braxton becomes the 12th member of the 2011 class.
The 2010 signing class was one of the lowest rated classes in recent memory. That, coupled with the fact that Ohio State has not signed a marquee quarterback since signing Terrelle Pryor in 2008, had Ohio State fans wondering what would happen next. It appears as if their prayers have been answered in the form of a 6 foot 3, 195 pound scatback with an arm. Miller has all the tools to become the next starter at Ohio State, but after watching Ken Guiton's performance in the spring game, if he wants that title, he'll have to earn it.
3 of Ohio State's early commitments are among the newly released rivals100. The class also includes 4 highly touted OL that average a mere 6'4" 310 - including Firestone's Tommy Brown(6'5" 330).

Police say gunman dead, five injured in DC-area mall shooting
(Columbia, MD) -- Three people are dead, five others have been injured after a shotgun-shooting inside a shopping mall in Columbia, Maryland. Howard County police say the gunman is dead, though they've not been able to identify him or a motive because of possible live ammunition still on his body.
Police have identified two of the three people who died. Howard County Police Chief Bill McMahon says 21-year-old Brianna Benlolo of College Park and 25-year-old Tyler Johnson were killed at the Columbia Mall this morning. Both were employees of Zumiez, a store where the shooting started. Five others were hurt, and have all been treated and released from the hospital. McMahon says they've not yet identified the gunman as investigators couldn't get close to him until they made sure that his remaining ammunition wouldn't explode.
Some federal authorities have reportedly said the shooting may have been a targeted murder-suicide but the police chief says that's purely speculation right now. McMahon says information is slow to come because investigators were only let into the mall after SWAT teams made sure there were no other victims or shooters.
McMahon says officers immediately responded to reports of gunfire at the busy mall. NBC-4 in Washington reports witnesses described the weapon as a shotgun. People living near the Columbia Mall in Maryland were asked to avoid the area Saturday.
The busy shopping center is located about 40 minutes from the nation's capital.
One subject dead is suspected shooter. No information about other victims yet.

Chris Brown slams sentence do-over, disses 'racist' D.A.
Listen to Chris Brown on iHeartRadio
(Yahoo!) - Everybody listen up: Chris Brown really cares about homeless people, just not the law.
The "Love More" singer went off on Twitter Thursday, complaining about last week's court ruling where he was ordered to complete 1,000 more hours of community service stemming from his 2009 assault on then-girlfriend Rihanna.
"N--ga done 6 months community service wit police and the DA racist ass crying to the judge that I didn't do it. F--k the SYSTEM!" the 24-year-old tweeted.
Oh, but he wasn't done sharing just yet!
"How about y'all take care of all the homeless kids and families on skid row. Promote helping people that are really f--ked up in your city!" continued Brown.
The L.A. District Attorney's office had no comment when omg! reached out on Friday regarding Brown's tweets.
After having his probation reinstated last Friday, the singer was told he must put in additional community service hours and that they must be supervised by L.A. County officials.
The D.A. filed documents earlier this year claiming Brown submitted false community service records and lied about completing the 180 days of labor he was originally sentenced to, which is what he is essentially being ordered to redo now.

Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx & girlfriend set a wedding date
Listen to Motley Crue on iHeartRadio
Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx is making wedding plans.
The rocker's girlfriend, Courtney Bingham, recently told PopStop TV they've set a date, and will be tying the knot with a ceremony in Hollywood on March 15th. The model says they're going to have a traditional wedding, but since she's "very inspired by everything Parisian" the event will feature "little French flairs."
Sixx and Bingham have been a couple for the past three years. He popped the question while on vacation in St. Bart's last fall.
The upcoming wedding will mark Nikki's third trip down the aisle. The bassist was married for seven years to "Playboy" Playmate Brandi Brandt, and spent eleven years with "Playboy" Playmate and actress Donna D'Errico.
His two-year relationship with "L.A. Ink's" Kat Von D ended in August 2010. They were never married. Nikki met Courtney three months later.
Congrats to the happy couple!

Probe Snares Obama Nominee
The nomination of the No. 2 official at the Department of Homeland Security is indefinitely delayed over an investigation into his dealings with companies run by Terry McAuliffe and Hillary Clinton's brother.
Republican senators boycotted last week's confirmation hearing for Alejandro Mayorkas, Obama's nominee to become the deputy secretary of homeland security, a job that could result in him running the department when Secretary Janet Napolitano steps down in September. Two days before the hearing, the news had broken that Mayorkas was under investigation by the department's own inspector general.
"You shouldn't have a hearing on someone who has an ongoing IG investigation until you have the results of the investigation," committee ranking Republican Tom Coburn (R-OK) told The Daily Beast on Tuesday.
Coburn said he wouldn't agree even to a committee vote for Mayorkas. "It's not going to be voted on until the investigation is complete," he said.
Committee Chairman Tom Carper (D-DE) told The Daily Beast on Tuesday that the Mayorkas nomination will not be on the agenda at this week's committee business meeting, so senators will leave town for the August recess without addressing the matter.
The IG office opened the investigation last September based on a referral from the FBI, but its progress is unclear, Carper said. Mayorkas has never been interviewed, and the IG won't explain to Congress the nature of its investigation, he said. Carper said he believes holding up Mayorkas's confirmation is unfair.
"Part of our responsibility is to vet nominees, not to kill nominees, not to hold them forever," Carper said. "To have his reputation questioned by an investigation that supposedly started nine months ago and hasn't even issued any preliminary findings, it's not the way to treat people."
For the last four years, Mayorkas has been the director of the customs and immigration service, where among his many responsibilities was overseeing the EB-5 program, which grants visas to foreigners who invest at least $500,000 in a new American business that will create or preserve domestic jobs.
Mayorkas is alleged to have used his influence to help secure a visa for a vice president at Huawei Technology, a Chinese firm investigated by the House Intelligence Committee for its ties to Chinese intelligence and military. Huawei declined to comment on the matter.
The request for the EB-5 visa was submitted and supported by Gulf Coast Funds Management, a firm run by Clinton's brother Anthony Rodham. Gulf Coast has a partnership with GreenTech, an electric automotive company founded by Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe. McAuliffe is building a factory in China.

Kree Harrison & Candice Glover face off in final 'Idol' performance
It's down to the final two on Fox's "American Idol." Tonight Kree Harrison and Candice Glover face off in their final performances before host Ryan Seacrest announces the winner on the season finale Thursday. While Candice has long been a shoe-in for the finale, Kree surprised many by winning a spot in the top two.
Apart from the competitors' performances, pop star Carly Rae Jepsen will also take the stage tonight.
Meantime, the penultimate episode of "Idol's" 12th season will also be the final time veteran judge Randy Jackson presides over an "Idol" performance. Jackson announced his departure last week amid rumors that all the judges' jobs were on the chopping block. Season 12 of "Idol" has been anything but smooth sailing for the judges.
Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey started off the season butting heads and never reconciled. Tension between the two could be felt nearly every time Nicki and Mariah gave contradicting opinions about the performers.
Don't miss the second-to-last episode of the 12th season of "American Idol" tonight at 8:00 p.m. Eastern on Fox.

Fergie hasn't given away when fans can expect to hear new music, but says when the album does come out, she's "going to be really proud of it."

Report: Alleged Taylor Swift tweet surfaces about Kanye's baby
Listen to Taylor Swift on iHeartRadio | Listen to Kanye West on iHeartRadio
Taylor Swift might be among the celebrities sending well wishes to Kanye West and Kim Kardashian on the birth of their baby. And in the process, she just might be getting the latest word in their MTV Video Music Awards incident that has never died.
TasteOfCountry.com has posted the image of a tweet allegedly sent Saturday by Swift that reads, "@KimKardashian @Kanyewest Yo I'm happy for you and imma let you finish but Beyonce had one of the best labors of all time." Obviously a play on when West infamously interrupted Taylor's acceptance speech at the 2009 VMA's, and he told her, "Yo, Taylor. I'm really happy for you, Imma let you finish but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time."
See Tweet here
If the tweet is authentic and was originated by Swift, it didn't remain on her Twitter account for long. TasteOfCountry refers to it as a "mock tweet," and suspects it's the work of "a Photoshop genius."

Report: Yankees To Sign Masahiro Tanaka
Masahiro Tanaka, the 25-year-old Japanese right-hander who was 24-0 for the Rakuten Golden Eagles last season, has agreed to a seven-year, $155 million contract with the New York Yankees, sources said Wednesday morning.
As part of the new rules governing the system that allows Japanese players to sign with a U.S. club, the Yankees will pay an additional $20 million to Rakuten. Tanaka can opt out of the contract after four years.
[Also: Agent Dave Stewart says Matt Kemp won't be ready for Australia opener ]
For $175 million, then, the Yankees sign the best starting pitcher in a thin free-agent market. Due to his 53-9 record over the past three seasons, an ERA in that time well under two, a clever split-fingered fastball and his youth, Tanaka is perhaps the most hyped pitcher to come from Japan since Hideki Irabu (to the Yankees) more than 15 years ago. Many scouts believe he will be somewhat less effective, however, than Yu Darvish, who in the past two seasons with the Texas Rangers is 29-18 and has become the ace of that staff.
Tanaka had drawn heavy interest from across the game. The Los Angeles Dodgers, Chicago Cubs,Arizona Diamondbacks and Chicago White Sox, along with the Yankees, were especially involved. He had 30 days – until Friday – to sign with a U.S. team, and in that time met with several clubs in Los Angeles.
Known in Japan by the nickname "Ma-kun," Tanaka is a veteran of Olympic and World Baseball Classic competition. He has twice led Nippon Professional Baseball in wins, ERA and complete games, and in 2011 led the league in strikeouts. Also, he has twice been named the league's top starting pitcher.
Still, the transition to the U.S. game has been difficult for some well-regarded Japanese pitchers. And while Tanaka seeks to follow in the footsteps of Hideo Nomo, Hiroki Kuroda and Darvish, there is a risk he will not adapt. Daisuke Matsuzaka had one exceptional season for the Boston Red Sox. He cost the Red Sox more than $100 million in posting fees and salary. The Yankees spent more than $46 million on Kei Igawa in 2006. He won two big-league games. Irabu, who signed a $12.8 million contract with the Yankees (after being traded from the San Diego Padres) before the current posting system was developed, never seemed comfortable with the U.S. game and retired with a losing record.
The Yankees are betting Tanaka has the talent and temperament to stand at or near the top of their rotation. While he lacks the power of Darvish, Tanaka does throw a fastball in the mid-90s. He has an uncommonly good split-fingered fastball and an effective slider. Tanaka threw significant innings as a young pitcher – 186 1/3 as an 18-year-old and a career-high 226 1/3 at 22 – and often threw more pitches than his U.S. counterparts, though that seems of little concern to most scouts.
The Yankees, while counting their dollars against the luxury tax, were the favorites to land Tanaka, in part because of their financial wherewithal and in part because their starting rotation is so thin.

Kelly Osbourne and Lady Gaga end feud at Elton John's Oscar bash
Listen to Lady Gaga on iHeartRadio | Listen to Big Show Radio on iHeartRadio
Oscar night proved to be a Hollywood ending — for Kelly Osbourne and Lady Gaga, that is.
[PHOTOS: Best and Worst Dressed at the Oscars]
The two stars, who have been famously feuding for over four years, officially buried the hatchet at Elton John's viewing party Sunday. The "Fashion Police" host took to Instagram to share her good news.
In the snapshot, 29-year-old Osbourne playfully chokes the "Art Pop" diva.
"#peace at last @ladygaga" Kelly captioned the pic.
For his part, Elton can be seen grinning behind the girls. While he's not (exactly) photobombing, he's definitely adding that special something to this moment.
[PHOTOS: 2014 Oscar Highlights]
In case you missed it blocked it out, their feud started back in 2009, when Osbourne called Gaga a "butterface." Neither Gaga, nor her army of Little Monsters liked that very much, and Kelly claimed she even received death threats from some of the 27-year-old singer's fans.
Then in a 2013 interview with Cosmopolitan, Kelly accused Gaga of being a hypocrite because the singer, who has been outspoken against bullying, reportedly did not step in to ask her fans to leave Kelly alone. At one point, even Kelly's mother, Sharon Osbourne, got involved, posting an open letter to "Ms. Gaga" on Facebook.
Then there was some bad blood over a birthday cake. Then it just got messier from there.
This is why it's such good news that these two have called a truce. While we're not completely sure what sparked the change of heart, we couldn't help but notice that Gaga's lavender-toned dress and scarf match Kelly's hair almost perfectly. Maybe they found some common ground? Then again, maybe they're finally as tired of their fighting as everyone else is. Either way, this calls for some "Applause."

Pee bandits are now peeing on people and people's stuff at schools across America
You can now officially add a mini-epidemic of urination-themed vandalism to the long list of things that make you wonder just what the hell is wrong with America these days.
Near the campus of the University of Florida in Gainesville, police say they are actively searching for a man who has been running around peeing on people.
The University of Florida pee bandit has struck on at least three occasions — Feb. 22, Feb. 26 and March 1 — at different campus locales, Fox News reports.
Each time, his victims were innocently standing with their backs turned when, they say, they suddenly couldn't help but notice a damp, constant flowing sensation, according to The Gainesville Sun.

REVIEW: Turbo
Just like it's name, this is "Turbocharged" family fun. It's a snail who dreams he can do the opposite of his nature which, of course, is to go slow. He is constantly trying to out run the tomatoes he picks and they usually run him over. Peer pressure from the other worker snails try to get him to give up his dreams of being a race car driver like his idol. Accidental luck, after running away from home, gets him sucked into a street race dragster. He becomes "One" with the turbocharge fuel and it transforms him into a dragster escargot.
One thing leads to another after he is found on the road by a taco shack owner who is a big dreamer and they end up getting him entered into the Indy 500. (I know, a bit far fetched) But the kids all roared with laughter and were at the edge of their seats waiting to see what was going to happen next. I haven't seen that kind of audience participation in a long while. I think the script is excellent for this kind of animated family fantasy and the 3D is totally awesome.
Ryan Reynolds was fresh off his costarring stint as the caveboy genius in "The Croods" to play the lead in this one and was excellent. Paul Giamatti is great too.
Kids give it 4 and a half stars.
I give it 3 and a half.

Boy Finds Mummified Corpse in Abandoned House
(NEWSER) – Plenty of kids poke around abandoned houses, but there's a 12-year-old boy in Dayton, Ohio, who probably won't be doing so again: The boy on Sunday opened the door of a closet in a house that neighbors thought was unoccupied and found a mummified corpse hanging inside, reports CNN. The body was identified as homeowner Edward Brunton, who apparently killed himself just months after buying the home in 2009. Officials say Brunton, who was in his late 40s when he died, was estranged from family and friends and was never reported missing.

Nicky Romero has quickly become one of the hottest names in dance music right now. He's collaborated with Calvin Harris, Avicii, Krewella, has released chart-topping solo productions, and runs his label Protocol - not to mention playing at every major festival and club all over the world.
We caught up with Nicky after his set on the main stage at TomorrowWorld where he talked about working with Avicii, Krewella, his Nothing Toulouse tour, and why he prefers the tour bus over planes. Check it out below:
How was performing on the main stage at TomorrowWorld?
It was great, it was great to be part of this and I think TomorrowWorld and ID&T really did a great job from bringing the same atmosphere from Europe here to the United States. Everybody was just so involved and I don't know, I saw a lot of flags. It was amazing to be a part of this.
And you presented an interactive experience with Google Glass. Tell us about that?
I was the first artist to wear a Google Glass. I felt a little bit like Vegeta from Dragon Ball Z or like one of the Fantastic Four with the glasses [which] has a laser beam. I'm pretty sure it looked funny, but it was a great experience and I hope that people got to see a little bit through my eyes.
How did you get hooked up with Avicii for your collab together "I Could Be the One?"
He's a good friend of mine. I started out in the same year as he did, and we just became really good friends. We were basically off in Stockholm for a night and we were like, "Hey, let's make a song," and it happens to be a great tune.
Did you guys have any creative say in the music video?
I have to give the props to Ash, the manager of Avicii who did a great job and found the right people. It's definitely on them, you know. They made the video work this way and we all were kinda involved, but Ash was the one who came up with this idea.

How was working with Krewella?
You know, they are very, very, very, very nice people. And they're super talented. So, I think they're one of the biggest rising stars. And they're also super-humble, and I'm really happy that I could do a song with them, "Legacy" - which the video is gonna be out soon as well.
How is your Nothing Toulouse Tour?
It was great. I mean, this is the first time that I'm on tour for longer than a month, so it's pretty interesting. This was my last show from the tour. So, I'm pretty happy that we wrapped everything and that we got it done. We had a lot of great shows and I could not wish for a better tour than the one that we're doing right now. We did a bus tour in Canada which was amazing to be on a bus.
How do you like the bus versus flying around on a plane?
I love the bus over everything. The bus, because the bus, you can take your friends. We were just hanging out with people. It's just so much more convenient that you can leave whenever you want. It's just, it's the best way to travel! It's like a huge bus with my name on it and we have friends with me, and we just had everybody coming over. Pretty cool.
You're also releasing "S.O.T.U." with Sunnery James and Ryan Marciano. How did you meet them?
They're good friends from Holland. They're really, really cool guys and I made that song, and I was like, "Why don't we do it together?" l just like their vibe, and I think it fit a little bit in their sound, and we were like, "Let's do it together." And now, we're releasing it on Size [Records]. I hope people are gonna like it. I heard it got played a lot in the festival.
We actually talked to them before and I asked them what their definition of underground is. So, what's yours?
I think the definition of underground for me is something that's not playing on the radio and that's loved by people, you know, that are not particularly listening to the radio. But just going to parties to meet each other. So, it's music that's played at parties, and that's not broadcasted by the radio. To me, I mean, that's just how I feel. And if it's in a cool place or in a commercial place, it doesn't really matter. I think the most important thing is that, that it's music that's not played out viral. It's loved by a certain group of people.
You have Protocol Recordings Night at ADE coming up. Are you excited?
I'm super excited. I think it's my second time. Last year, I had my first time with David Guetta as a special guest. And this year, we do a bigger venue and we sold out like four times the capacity! Actually six times the capacity. So, I'm really happy. And I also have friends like Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike coming to play. We have a very special guest. We have Martin Garrix, Vicetone, TV Noise, we have John Dahlback. We have a lot of talent that and I'm super looking forward to do that.
Do you have new music coming out?
Yeah, I have a new song. I can't say too much, but it's gonna be in my album, it's really a song to listen to. I actually played the first version today. But, yeah, I think the final version will be played at my night [Protocol Recordings Night at ADE].
So, you're working on an album?
Yeah. I think 2014 is gonna be the year that we're gonna put that out. I made like six songs, and four of them are finished. The rest is not finished yet. I'm actually never really satisfied with what I make, and it takes forever for me to be satisfied with something I think is good enough to release. So, it might take a little longer.

Snapchatting with Senator Rand Paul
Yesterday I made a new friend.
Senator Rand Paul, the filibustering, anti-drone, fresh-faced Kentucky Republican Party savior got a Snapchat account. The move was indicative of an ingrained GOP tendency to incorporate misguided attempts at connecting with "the youth," (see Mitt Romney's legendary "Who Let the Dogs Out" reference).
I received Paul's first snap a little after 11 am EST. It was a short, inoffensive video message which simply stated "thanks for the follow!" Of course, I took a quick screenshot of it, as the rest of the conscious general public did, documenting this historic moment.
The snap remained in the "Snapchat Stories" section of the app, allowing me to replay it over and over again throughout the day. Paul's positioning in what was presumably his Hill office became hilarious upon revisits. He clearly had an intern hold his phone at a distance of at least five feet away, assuming some kind of feigned sense of official authority will sending a glorified selfie. It reminded me of Donald Trump's epic but short-lived series of vines, except the bird-nest coifed billionaire opted for a much more intrusive and intimate approach.
The rest of the universe caught onto the new availability of Paul and everyone fromTime to POLITICO reported on this unprecedented access. A thought piece even emerged alleging that Paul was appealing to Snapchat for financial incentives.
As the day wore on, and another more risque snap emerged from Paul's account, I began to wonder whether other people were sending him responses. I speculated that this was opening the door to a series of disturbing images ranging from political lambasting to outright Weiner-esque sexting.
The pitfall of the app is that, screen-shotting aside, it offers people the obvious ability to send graphic pictures with, or without hilarity-inducing captions. Except this time, the recipient is a member of the United States Senate.

This will be short and sweet. Not a whole lot to say about a one-sided game for three quarters.
Mo Williams couldn't defend Rajon Rondo in the playoffs last season. To the surprise of no one, he still can't. Rondo is quickly climbing the ranks of point guards in the league. Byron Scott put Chris Paul and Deron Williams at the top of the list and Rondo in the next tier down.To read more or comment...
Shaquille O'Neal watched all last season as LeBron James tossed powder in the air to the roar of a sellout crowd inside Quicken Loans Arena. Now O'Neal wants to see if James can do it again.
"I'm anxious to see him do the powder (expletive),'' O'Neal said. "We have bets he won't do it."To read more or comment...
Boston Celtics (12-4) at Cleveland Cavaliers (7-9)
7 p.m., Quicken Loans Arena, WTAM/FS Ohio
Cavs probable starters: PG Mo Williams, SG Anthony Parker, SF Joey Graham, PF J.J. Hickson, C Anderson Varejao
Celtics probable starters: PG Rajon Rondo, SG Ray Allen, SF Paul Pierce, PF Kevin Garnett, C Shaquille O'Neal
Injury report: Cavs -- None; Celtics -- Kendrick Perkins (right knee surgery) out, Jermaine O'Neal (knee) out, Delonte West (broken right wrist) out.
Officials: Dick Bavetta, Kevin Cutler, John Goble
Cavs coach Byron Scott knew it was coming. As expected, the league fined him $35,000 Sunday for his verbal assault on officials Ed Malloy, Bennie Adams and Kevin Fehr following Friday's loss to the Orlando Magic.
Scott knew when he opened his mouth Friday the fine was coming. He didn't seem to care, nor did he regret the comments Saturday when asked again about it before the Cavs' victory over the Memphis Grizzlies.To read more or comment...
J.J. Hickson's big night came at the perfect time. With Boston and Miami headed to Cleveland next week, the Cavs need more than 5 or 6 points and 2 or 3 rebounds from Hickson if they have any chance at victory.
Hickson worked all summer on his jumper and seems to have fallen in love with it a little too much. He's out on the wings more often than he probably should be and not banging around enough in the post. Yet there Hickson was again in the first quarter on Saturday clanking jumpers from the wings.To read more or comment...
End 3Q: Cavs 75, Grizzlies 67
* The third quarter used to be the Cavs' weakness, but not tonight. Great quarter, led by Mo Williams' 12 points and three assists.
* But really the turnaround started on defense. The Cavs did a great job of closing down the lane and helping more on rotations. That led to easy baskets at the other end.To read more or comment...
Memphis Grizzlies (7-9) at Cleveland Cavaliers (6-9)
7:30 p.m., Quicken Loans Arena, WTAM/FS Ohio
Cavs probable starters: PG Mo Williams, SG Anthony Parker, SF Joey Graham, PF J.J. Hickson, C Anderson Varejao
Grizzlies probable starters: PG Mike Conley, SG Xavier Henry, SF Rudy Gay, PF Zach Randolph, C Marc Gasol
Injury report: Cavs -- None; Grizzlies -- None
Byron Scott may have cost himself $25,000 tonight, but he doesn't sound too concerned over it.
"My checkbook is OK," Scott said, before letting loose a tirade rarely heard from coaches these days for fear of fines from the league office.To read more or comment...
Halftime: Magic 62, Cavs 49
* This is the problem with trying to defend Dwight Howard. The Cavs are getting killed on the perimeter by allowing uncontested 3s. Orlando has made 11 of 20 3-pointers in the first half, many of them wide open looks.To read more or comment...
Finally a reason Cavaliers fans can embrace Michael Jordan, even slightly. Make sure to watch until the end for the best part.
Update: Apparently this might be a video made by a fan. I still like it.To read more or comment...
If the Cavs are to have any chance at a successful season, this is the way Mo Williams will have to play nine games out of 10. He is their leader now. He is the closest they have to an Alpha dog. When Williams struggles, the Cavs don't have much of a chance.
That was illustrated Tuesday during a blowout loss to the Pacers, when Williams barely made an impact. He has seemed distant and uninterested at times this season. He has been fantastic other times. In the second half on Wednesday, he was fantastic.To read more or comment...
Mo Williams sprained his right thumb against the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday, but is playing through it. He won't tape it because he doesn't like the feeling of tape on his hand.
Williams had six points and three assists in last night's loss to the Pacers.To read more or comment...
Cleveland Cavaliers (5-8) at Milwaukee Bucks (5-8)
7 p.m., Quicken Loans Arena, WTAM/FS Ohio
Cavs probable starters: PG Mo Williams, SG Anthony Parker, SF Joey Graham, PF J.J. Hickson, C Anderson Varejao
Bucks probable starters: PG Brandon Jennings, SG John Salmons, SF Luc Richard Mbah a Moute, PF Drew Gooden, C Andrew Bogut
Injury report: Cavs -- None; Bucks -- Carlos Delfino (neck strain) day to day, Chris Douglas-Roberts (right eye) day to day, Darington Hobson (left hip surgery) out, Michael Redd (left ACL/MCL) out.
It's only three games -- and two of them came against a pair of the league's best in New Orleans and San Antonio -- but the Cavs appear to be a team regressing. They're certainly not a team making progress.
The loss to the Raptors in the second game of the season was bad, but Tuesday's was worse. The Cavs were without a pair of starters (Mo Williams and Anderson Varejao) against the Raptors and J.J. Hickson quickly fell into foul trouble. The Cavs were at full strength and rested on Tuesday, but still managed to begin the game 1 for 9 from the floor, get outscored 17-3 during one stretch in the second quarter, allow an opponent more than 60 points in a half for the second straight game and thoroughly get outplayed at both ends of the floor.To read more or comment...
End 3Q: Pacers 83, Cavs 56
* Not much more to add to this. Now they're just playing out the final quarter. Cavs switched to a zone late in the quarter, that didn't seem to help.
* Cavs could set a slew of "worst since" tonight. As in, worst loss since .... Fewest points since ....To read more or comment...
Cleveland Cavaliers (5-7) at Indiana Pacers (6-6)
7 p.m., Conseco Fieldhouse, WTAM, FS Ohio
Cavs probable starters: PG Mo Williams, SG Anthony Parker, SF Jamario Moon, PF J.J. Hickson, C Anderson Varejao
Pacers probable starters: PG T.J. Ford, SG Mike Dunleavy, SF Danny Granger, PF Josh McRoberts, C Roy Hibbert
Officials: Steve Javie, Eli Roe, Zach Zarba
Injury report: Darren Collison (sprained left ankle) day to day.
Joey Graham will start for the Cavaliers tonight at small forward against the Indiana Pacers in place of Jamario Moon, coach Byron Scott confirmed this morning after the team's shootaround at Conseco Fieldhouse.
"I think Joey brings a different presence on the defensive end because he's a little more physical and a little more aggressive," Scott said. "On the offensive end, he's a guy we can go to a little bit in the post. Going against (Danny) Granger tonight, I thnk Joey will be physical and aggressive with him, but also someone we can say, 'OK Granger, you have to guard him, too."To read more or comment...
Sorry for the lack of blogging/Twitter updates tonight. I had zero wireless access in the arena, which made for a complicating night. More on that in the latest installment of Road Diaries, coming tomorrow sometime when my blood pressure drops below 250.
On to the game...To read more or comment...
Cleveland Cavaliers (5-6) at San Antonio Spurs (10-1)
8:30 p.m., AT&T Center, FS Ohio/WTAM
Cavs probable starters: PG Mo Williams, SG Anthony Parker, SF Jamario Moon, PF J.J. Hickson, C Anderson Varejao
Spurs probable starters: PG Tony Parker, SG Manu Ginobili, SF Richard Jefferson, PF DeJuan Blair, C Tim Duncan
Injury report: Cavs -- none; Spurs -- SG James Anderson (right foot stress fracture) out.
Antawn Jamison was curious to see the demeanor of his teammates at halftime, after the Cavs were blown off the court in the second quarter by the first-place Hornets.
The Cavs blew way too many easy looks in the quarter, while their defense faltered both in transition and in the half-court. The Hornets led by 19 at the half and all signs pointed to a second-half blowout.To read more or comment...
Halftime: Hornets 62, Cavs 43
* Tough quarter at both ends. Defensive rotations were lagging at times, as was transition defense, giving the Hornets open looks all over the court. The Hornets shot 13 of 20 in the quarter (5 of 8 on 3s), while the Cavs were a dreadful 4 of 23 (1 of 7 on 3s).
* The Cavs missed countless point-blank looks from inside the paint. By my count, they missed about 10 just in the second quarter, but it might be even more than that. It happened in the last game, too, but the Cavs got away with it because they were playing the Sixers. The Hornets are not the Sixers.To read more or comment...
Byron Scott left it up to Mo Williams whether he wanted to start or come off the bench against the New Orleans Hornets. Williams chose to start after missing two games with a groin injury. It's a remarkably fast recovery, considering his first groin injury kept him out of most of training camp and all but one preseason game.
He'll have a tough task in front of him in trying to slow Hornets point guard Chris Paul, who already has a 19-assist game this season.To read more or comment...
Cleveland Cavaliers (5-5) at New Orleans Hornets (9-1)
8 p.m., New Orleans Arena, WTAM/FS Ohio
Cavs probable starters: PG Ramon Sessions, SG Anthony Parker, SF Jamario Moon, PF J.J. Hickson, C Anderson Varejao
Hornets probable starters: PG Chris Paul, SG Marco Belinelli, SF Trevor Ariza, PF David West, C Emeka Okafor
Officials: Bob Delaney, John Goble, Eric Lewis
Injury report: Cavs-- Mo Williams (groin) questionable; Hornets -- Marcus Thornton (right quad) probable
I've got a flight to catch, so this is the abbreviated version.
* Mo Williams went through about 75 percent of practice today and took contact for the first time since re-aggravating the groin injury. But his status for tomorrow night at New Orleans still won't be known until closer to tip-off.To read more or comment...
I spent a few minutes today talking to Cavs forward Joey Graham, who has to be one of the most fascinating players in the league.
Graham is a licensed pilot, a trained chef and an accomplished musician. He credits his father for making his sons educated and well-rounded. Joey certainly fits that.To read more or comment...
The Cavs ended their four-game home losing streak. They played well in the third quarter. Anthony Parker looked good charging toward the stands.
But beneath all of that are a couple of interesting position battles brewing with the Cavaliers.To read more or comment...
End 3Q: Cavs 80, Sixers 70
* Much, much better third quarter for Cavs than they've been producing. Outscored Philly 26-16, which is only the second time all season they have outscored the opponent in the third quarter.
* Most important has been the ball movement. Jamario Moon said the other day that guys shouldn't be holding the ball longer than 1.5 or 2 seconds. Anything longer starts to slow down the offense. Cavs did a decent job of keeping the ball moving in the quarter.To read more or comment...
Joe Tait was released from The Cleveland Clinic today following a procedure to prevent blood clots from forming in his lungs.
He will spend the next few weeks regaining strength before undergoing double bypass and aortic valve replacement surgery. No timetable has been set for the heart surgery, but right now the thinking is early January, the team said.To read more or comment...
Philadelphia 76ers (2-8) vs. Cleveland Cavaliers (4-5)
7 p.m., Quicken Loans Arena, FS Ohio/WTAM
Cavs probable starters: PG Ramon Sessions, SG Anthony Parker, SF Jamario Moon, PF J.J. Hickson, C Anderson Varejao
Sixers probable starters: PG Jrue Holiday, SG Evan Turner, SF Andres Nocioni, PF Elton Brand, C Spencer Hawes
Officials: Greg Willard, Nick Buchert, David Jones
Injury report: Cavs -- Mo Williams (groin) questionable; Anderson Varejao (ribs) questionable; Sixers -- Andre Iguodala (Achilles) out.
Mo Williams (groin) and Anderson Varejao (ribs) participated in the first 30-45 minutes of practice, Byron Scott said, but it was mostly conditioning. They sat out the contact portion while recovering from their injuries. Both are questionable for tomorrow night against the Sixers.
Scott acknowledged that Williams' groin injury doesn't seem as serious as the last one, which forced him out of most of training camp and the first three games of the season.To read more or comment...
After scoring 22 points in the first half, Danny Granger was supposed to be a marked man for the Cavaliers in the second half. Supposed to be.
At halftime, coach Byron Scott implored his starters to stick with Granger in the second half. Jamario Moon and those defending Granger had to stick with him, get through every screen and never leave him.To read more or comment...
End 3Q: Pacers 73, Cavs 68
* The Cavs' starting power forward has two rebounds. Their starting center has three. Yet somehow the Pacers only lead in rebounding 28-27. Anthony Parker and Antawn Jamison each have seven, which is helping the cause immensely.
* Byron Scott was concerned with Indiana's 3-point shooting before the game and this is why: The Pacers were 6 of 14 on 3s before missing their last two of the quarter, while the Cavs are just 2 of 10. To this point, it's the difference in the game.To read more or comment...
Mo Williams (groin) and Anderson Varejao (ribs) will both miss tonight's game against the Indiana Pacers.
Ramon Sessions will start in place of Williams and Ryan Hollins will start at center in place of Varejao. Leon Powe will likely serve as Hollins' backup and rookies Manny Harris and Samardo Samuels are both active for the Cavs.To read more or comment...
Indiana Pacers (3-4) at Cleveland Cavaliers (4-4)
7:30 p.m., WTAM/FS Ohio
Cavs probable starters: PG Ramon Sessions, SG Anthony Parker, SF Jamario Moon, PF J.J. Hickson, C Anderson Varejao
Pacers probable starters: PG Darren Collison, SG Mike Dunleavy, SF Danny Granger, PF Josh McRoberts, C Roy Hibbert
Officials: Joey Crawford, Karl Lane, Tom Washington
Injury report: Cavs -- Mo Williams (groin) questionable, Anderson Varejao (ribs) questionable; Pacers -- Jeff Foster (sprained right ankle) out.
Anderson Varejao had an MRI today at the Cleveland Clinic to confirm the right rib contusion he suffered during Wednesday's loss to the Nets.
Mo Williams' groin injury will be re-evaluated tomorrow before practice. The Cavaliers had today off following the back-to-back games with the Nets.To read more or comment...
Mo Williams is a fairly emotional player to begin with, so it was no surprise to see him standing in front of his locker with a dejected look on his face tonight. It's easy to understand why.
This makes at least four groin injuries for Williams over the last three years, plus he had the hernia surgery in 2008 before joining the Cavs. Clearly, this is a recurring problem he'll have to contend with for the rest of his career.To read more or comment...
End 3Q: Cavs 69, Nets 67
* No surprise here: Another bad third quarter for the Cavs, who struggled with their shots and have let the Nets back in the game. The Cavs were 6 of 18 in the quarter and were outrebounded by the Nets 13-8. Against a quality NBA team, Cavs would be down about 10 the way they played that quarter.
* Big quarter for Antawn Jamison, who kept the Cavs ahead with 8 points and 4 rebounds. The knee is fine.To read more or comment...
Cleveland Cavaliers (4-3) vs. New Jersey Nets (2-5)
7:30 p.m., Quicken Loans Arena, WTAM/FS Ohio
Cavs probable starters: PG Mo Williams, SG Anthony Parker, SF Jamario Moon, PF J.J. Hickson, C Anderson Varejao
Nets probable starters: PG Devin Harris, SG Anthony Morrow, SF Travis Outlaw, PF Troy Murphy, C Robin Lopez
Referees: Bill Spooner, Curtis Blair, Eric Lewis
Injury report: Cavs -- Antawn Jamison (knee) questionable; Nets -- Terrance Williams (abdominal strain) probable.
When Byron Scott joined the Indiana Pacers, he was a veteran past his prime with three championship rings. He embraced the opportunity to teach a young Pacers team how to win, while giving some advice to Reggie Miller on his path to stardom.
Antawn Jamison doesn't have three championship rings. In fact, he doesn't have any. And Jamison believes he can earn another contract after his current deal expires after next season. So he isn't as eager to embrace the bench role Scott did later in his career.To read more or comment...
End 3Q: Nets 65, Cavs 63
* Can't say enough tonight about the combined efforts of Antawn Jamison and JJ Hickson. Hickson started slowly during the game's first six minutes, but Jamison seems to have inspired him. The pair has combined for 26 points and 15 rebounds -- excellent production from the power forward position. Of course, Troy Murphy also has 10 rebounds for the Nets. A lot of post production tonight.
* Mo Williams really, really struggling with his shot tonight. Missed his first nine, now 1 of 12. Yet he still has seven assists, so it's not a completely wasted night.To read more or comment...
Cleveland Cavaliers (3-3) at New Jersey Nets (2-4)
7 p.m., Prudential Center, WTAM/FS Ohio
Cavs probable starters: PG Mo Williams, SG Anthony Parker, SF Jamario Moon, PF J.J. Hickson, C Anderson Varejao
Nets probable starters: PG Devin Harris, SG Anthony Morrow, SF Travis Outlaw, PF Troy Murphy, C Brook Lopez
Officials: Marc Davis, Derek Richardson, Leon Wood
Injury report: Cavs -- Antawn Jamison (left knee) probable; Nets -- Terrence Williams (lower abdominal strain) questionable.
Thank you, Continental, for merging with United and destroying your Cleveland hub. Your idiocy prevented me from booking a direct to Newark, since you wanted more than $500 for a one way ticket, and instead forced me to fly Delta today, which is equally stupid for merging with Northwest.
Northwest, I'm convinced, is managed by drunken fraternity brothers, since I've never flown Northwest and arrived on time in the same city as my luggage. And that includes tonight.To read more or comment...
In case you missed it -- and six games into the season, you probably did -- the team in first place in the Central Division Sunday morning is the same team that has been there much of the last few years. The LeBron-less Cleveland Cavaliers.
At 3-3, it's not exactly a commanding lead. But the Cavs have shown something on the road the last two nights that makes you believe this isn't a lost season. The rebirth of Boobie Gibson was never more evident than it was on this trip and Mo Williams can dominate against lesser competition.To read more or comment...
End 3Q: Cavs 76, Wizards 76
* The third quarter has been a problem for Cavs this season and it was so again. An eight-point halftime lead quickly became a deficit because the Cavs just stopped attacking the rim. They started the quarter 3 of 17 from the floor before finally getting inside a little bit near the end of the quarter to tie the game.
* Mo Williams had a free layup waiting for him early in the quarter, but elected to pull up for a 3 and he clanked it. It began a disturbing trend of the Cavs failing to get anything of substance out of their halfcourt offense. The Cavs attacked in transition, but too many of their looks out of the offense came from the outside. Most of them were misses, including a pair of air balls.To read more or comment...
It won't be much of a homecoming tonight for Antawn Jamison. He is sidelined for the third straight game with swelling in his left knee.
Jamison took part in pregame shooting at the Verizon Center, his home arena for 5 1/2 years. But by sitting tonight, he'll have three more days to get ready before the Cavs play in New Jersey. Scott is hopeful Jamison can return then, but the swelling in his knee has been slow to subside.To read more or comment...
Logistically and price-wise, it made more sense to stay near the airport for Friday's game against Philadelphia and take a cab to the arena for shootaround in the morning. I was going to meet News-Herald Cavs writer Bob Finnan at the Airport Marriott and we'd share a cab to the arena.
I found a bellman and asked him where I could find a cab to take us to the arena district in South Philly. I told him I figured it would cost about $10 or $15 bucks and wanted to make sure that was accurate. He didn't say anything at first, then looked around to make sure no one was watching and leaned in like he had a big secret, like he was going to tell me where The Situation left his common sense.To read more or comment...
Cleveland Cavaliers (2-3) at Washington Wizards (1-3)
7 p.m., Verizon Center, WTAM/FS Ohio
Cavs probable starters: PG Mo Williams, SG Anthony Parker, SF Jamario Moon, PF J.J. Hickson, C Anderson Varejao
Wizards probable starters: PG John Wall, SG Kirk Hinrich, SF Al Thornton, PF Andray Blatche, C Javale McGee
Officials: Ed Malloy, Matt Boland, Eric Dalen
Injury report: Cavs -- Antawn Jamison (questionable); Wizards -- Josh Howard (torn left ACL) out.
I can't leave Philly without a Philly Cheesesteak. Unfortunately, I waited until nearly 1 a.m. to order it and it won't be here til 1:30. So that leaves time to start a new column on the blog, Road Diaries. This is where I'll put all the strange, surreal, sometimes illegal things that happen on the road this season.
For instance, the first trip of the sesaon to Toronto. I was stepping off the plane when Garin Narain, Cavs media relations man, called to see if I was coming to practice in Independence because it was wrapping a little early. Having my hands full, I reached for my phone ... and dropped it. It hit the brace that holds the seats on the plane and cracked the screen.To read more or comment...
Sorry for the shoddy blog work tonight. Blame the Wells Fargo Center's lousy wireless connections. On to the game...
The Cavs will win a handful of games this season simply because they know how to win. This was one of those nights.To read more or comment...
Halftime: Cavs 61, Sixers 53
* This game is taking on the same feel as all the rest. The Cavs are still struggling to play well for four quarters. The Sixers have shot their way back into this game (12 of 19, 63 percent in the second quarter) much like the Hawks shot their way to a huge first-quarter lead by shooting 72 percent the other night. The Sixers are a 1-4 team the Cavs had down early, but the Cavs have let them back in it.To read more or comment...
Antawn Jamison is inactive tonight and will miss his second consecutive game with tendinitis in his left knee. The Cavs are still hopeful he might be able to return tomorrow night at Washington.
"The knee has gotten better, but he still has a little soreness in there,'' coach Byron Scott said. "If it was April, the last five games of the season and you were trying to get a different seeding for the playoffs, he could play. But right now it's still a little sore, the flexibility is not all the way there. So obviously we want to be a little more cautious with it."To read more or comment...
Cleveland Cavaliers (1-3) at Philadelphia 76ers (1-4)
7 p.m., Wells Fargo Center, WTAM/FS Ohio
Cavs probable starters: PG Mo Williams (12.0 ppg, 2.0 rpg, 2.0 apg), SG Anthony Parker (10.5 ppg, 2.8 rpg, 3.3 apg), SF Jamario Moon (6.3 ppg, 5.5 rpg, 1.8 apg), PF J.J. Hickson (18.3 ppg, 5.5 rpg, 1.3 apg), C Anderson Varejao (6.0 ppg, 10.3 rpg, 2.3 apg)
76ers probable starters: PG Jrue Holiday (10.0 ppg, 3.0 rpg, 5.5 apg), SG Andre Iguodala (15.3 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 6.8 apg), SF Andres Nocioni (8.3 ppg, 5.5 rpg, 1.5 apg), PF Elton Brand (16.3 ppg, 9.0 rpg, 1.8 apg), C Spencer Hawes (3.5 ppg, 2.5 rpg, 0.8 apg)
Officials: Mike Callahan, Scott Bolnick, Sean Wright
Injury report: Cavs -- Antawn Jamison (left knee) questionable; Sixers -- None.
* As expected, Mo Williams will start tomorrow night at Philadelphia and is expected to remain in that role for the rest of the season.
* Antawn Jamison returned to practice today and is questionable for tomorrow night. The team wants to see how his left knee responds tomorrow morning to today's workout before making a decision on his availability. I doubt Byron Scott would play him in both games of the back-to-back right now. Given that, he may give Jamison his choice whether or not he wants to play tomorrow in Philly or Saturday in Washington. The game in Washington, of course, would be his first return to the Verizon Center since the Cavs traded for him last season. That was just a long-winded way to say don't be surprised of Jamison sits tomorrow and plays Saturday in front of his old fans.To read more or comment...
Not much shaking today at Cleveland Clinic Courts. Here are some of the highlights:
* Antawn Jamison sat out today's practice with his sore left knee. Not much of a surprise. Coach Byron Scott said the knee was feeling better today and there is a chance Jamison can return on Friday at Philadelphia.To read more or comment...
This is where the Cavs are right now: Byron Scott was praising the effort of his team in a 12-point loss to the Atlanta Hawks, a playoff team, but by no means one of the top three teams in the East.
The Cavaliers were much better defensively in the final three quarters Tuesday than they were at any point in the previous seven. Dating back to the second half against Toronto, the entire game against Sacramento and the first quarter against the Hawks, the Cavs' defense was anemic.To read more or comment...
End 3Q: Hawks 74, Cavs 73
* Great quarter at both ends of the floor. The third quarter has been a huge problem for the Cavs this year (they've allowed 31 points in each of the last two games). But they contested shots, did a better job of cutting off the floor and held the Hawks to 15 points on 6 of 25 shooting.To read more or comment...
Antawn Jamison will not play in the Cavs' game tonight against Atlanta. Jamison woke up with swelling in his troublesome left knee on Monday, so coach Byron Scott will hold him out tonight as a precaution. Jamison is just 7 of 22 from the floor, which follows an 8 for 38 preseason.
Still, Scott maintains he is more concerned with Jamison's knee than his shot.To read more or comment...
Atlanta Hawks (3-0) vs. Cleveland Cavaliers (1-2)
7 p.m., Quicken Loans Arena
Cavs probable starters: PG Ramon Sessions (13.0 ppg, 2.3 rpg, 3.3 apg), SG Anthony Parker (10.7 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 3.7 apg), SF Jamario Moon (6.3 ppg, 5.0 rpg, 1.7 apg),PF J.J. Hickson (14.0 ppg, 5.7 rpg, 1.7 apg), C Anderson Varejao (8.0 ppg, 9.5 rpg, 2.0 apg).
Hawks probable starters: PG Mike Bibby (13.0 ppg, 1.7 rpg, 4.7 apg), SG Joe Johnson (23.0 ppg, 4.0 rpg, 4.0 apg), SF Marvin Williams (7.0 ppg, 6.0 rpg, 1.0 apg), PF Josh Smith (11.7 ppg, 8.3 rpg, 3.3 apg), C Al Horford (14.3 ppg, 9.7 rpg, 2.3 apg).
Officials: Marc Davis, David Guthrie, Josh Tiven
Injury report: Cavs -- Antawn Jamison (left knee) questionable; Hawks -- Maurice Evans (right knee) out, Pape Sy (back) out.
* Mo Williams will make his debut tomorrow night against Atlanta, but Byron Scott hasn't decided yet whether or not he'll start. That was a bit surprising to hear, but I would guess Williams will start and play his usual alottment of minutes.
* A big problem for the Cavs defensively has been a lack of rotating. Players are sticking to their man, or getting caught in between rotating and sticking with their man, when Scott often wants them to forget about man defense and instead follow the system. Opponents are getting wide open looks because guys are getting caught in between. That was a big focus of today's work. Scott said the guys have to trust that their teammate will also rotate to their man. Williams said it's a selfish thing that players are worried about their "man" scoring.To read more or comment...

Couple married 60 years die 36 hours apart
(NEWSER) – When Ed Hale asked his future wife's parents for her hand in marriage, she had just been in an awful car accident and a long journey to recovery was ahead. They said no, but he persisted, telling them, "I will care for her the rest of my life if I have to." Ed and Floreen Hale were married in 1953, and more than 60 years later, they both lay dying—in separate New York hospitals. Determined to be with the wife he'd pampered for decades, Ed convinced the hospitals to pull some strings, and he ended up in a bed right next to hers, so close they could hold hands. Floreen died on February 7, followed less than 36 hours later by Ed.

US Issues Global Travel Terrorism Alert
(NEWSER) – If you were planning to travel this month, the Obama administration thinks you should be nervous. The State Department today issued a global travel alert, warning US citizens that "al-Qaeda and affiliated organizations" may be planning to strike "in the period between now and the end of August." The risk is particularly concentrated in the Middle East and North Africa, with attacks "possibly occurring in or emanating from the Arabian Peninsula."

ISIS: We just slaughtered 1,700 people
(NEWSER) – Militants from the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria say they've slaughtered 1,700 Iraqi soldiers in Tikrit, a massacre that, if confirmed, would be by far the largest atrocity in the country in more than a decade. The militants released photos late Saturday showing the soldiers being led to trenches and then face-down in them before and after their execution. Sources tell the BBC that captured soldiers were divided into ordinary conscripts, who were freed, and volunteers from Shia militias, who were massacred. But some Iraqi officials and human rights groups are casting doubt on the number of dead, the New York Times reports. "I would have thought there would have been leverage in keeping those prisoners alive," aGuardian correspondent says. "My suspicion is that they remain alive but in desperate peril."
- The photos, uploaded to an ISIS Twitter account, show what could be as many as seven massacre sites, though the Times notes they could also be various angles of fewer sites. No individual photo depicts more than 60 victims.
- The captions are particularly inflammatory, notes theTimes. A sampling: "The filthy Shiites are killed in the hundreds," and "The liquidation of the Shiites who ran away from their military bases."

Man Charged With Hoax Over Boston Backpacks
(NEWSER) – The one-year anniversary of the Boston bombings isn't passing without a police scare. Authorities say they have taken a man into custody over two backpacks found near the finish line of the Boston Marathon, where two pressure-cooker bombs exploded a year ago. One backpack contained a rice cooker, and the man has been charged with disorderly conduct and possession of a hoax device. Police detonated one bag about 9pm and the second about 40 minutes later, reports the Globe.

Courtney Love contemplates possibility of Kurt Cobain musical
Listen to Nirvana on iHeartRadio
"Kurt Cobain: The Musical" - it could happen.
Cobain's widow, Courtney Love, goes even further telling NME.com that if she finds the right team of writers, producers and directors, a Broadway musical about the late Nirvana frontman is "very likely to happen."
Love says if a musical does come to fruition it would have to be delivered through a story that hasn't been told before. She promises to work closely with an A-Team to create a project that reflects Cobain in the most "respected and honest way possible." She says it's important for her daughter Frances Bean Cobain to see her father's legacy resurrected on stage. She also says she would be creating the production for the fans who have flooded her with fan mail and social media posts pushing for a musical.
This Saturday, April 5th marks the 20th anniversary of Kurt Cobain's death and next week his band, Nirvana, will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Man survives trip into wood chipper
(NEWSER) – Frank Arce of Longview, Washington, has a broken pelvis, broken leg, seven broken ribs, a shattered ankle, a bruised liver, a collapsed lung, and assorted other injuries—but he went into a wood chipper-like machine last week and lived to tell the tale. The wood products worker's 10 seconds of hell began when a log got stuck inside the chamber that fed the machine, called a hopper, on the evening of Jan. 23 at Swanson Bark & Wood Products. Workers shut down the machine before he climbed into the hopper remove the jam. What happened next is somewhat unclear, and under investigation. The 23-year-old tells theDaily News that "apparently the piece (of machinery) I was standing next to was on a different circuit," and somehow started back up again, sucking him from the hopper into the "porcupine."

text: (NEWSER) – You'd expect some jail time for a child rapist, right? Not so for du Pont heir Robert H. Richards IV, who admitted to raping his 3-year-old daughter almost a decade ago, the Daily Mail reports. In a 2009 case that's only now coming to light, the News Journal reports that Delaware Judge Jan Jurden sentenced Richards to an eight-year prison term but suspended it for probation, plus a sex offenders rehabilitation program, because Richards "will not fare well" in prison and "treatment needs exceed need for punishment." The News Journal calls it "a rare and puzzling rationale" from a judge who is known for her tough sentencing, especially given that treatment is usually reserved for first-time drug offenders, drunk drivers, and the mentally ill.

Real Questions with... HAIM
Sisters Este, Danielle and Alana make up burgeoning pop-rock group HAIM (rhymes with time), which also happens to be the girls' last name. Over the past several months, the L.A.-born-and-bred twentysomethings have been making a name for themselves performing at festivals from Lollapalooza to Glastonbury, opening for the likes of Mumford & Sons and Phoenix on tour, and by being associated with the one and only JAY Z (they're signed to Roc Nation management).
But for HAIM, it's not about rubbing elbows or internet hype or who thinks they're the 'next big thing.' Simply, it's about the music, and considering the strength and versatility of debut album Days Are Gone (out now), the rest is just a really cool bonus.
HAIM stopped by iHeartRadio headquarters in NYC recently, where Este, Danielle and Alana opened up about everything from first kisses to their take on Miley Cyrus and JAY Z to drawing comparisons to Fleetwood Mac with their debut.
Check out Real Questions with HAIM below.
What do you think about all the buzz surrounding your debut? Is the hype a good thing?
Alana: I don't really know much about hype. We kind of - especially when we were recording the record -we kind of hid away in a cave and didn't really pay attention... we learned to be kind of afraid of the internet.
Este: Scary Place. You know what I equate it to? Having a baby and putting it on the internet and having people criticize.
Danielle: Like what's up with his eyes?
Este: Like your baby's eyes are cross-eyed. Your baby's head is football shaped. It's just a little nerve-racking, but the good thing is we made the record we wanted to make. We're really proud of it, and we worked really f**kin hard on it, and had a really good time doing it.
What preconceived notions do people have about you that are completely wrong?
Este: That we're not really sisters.
Alana: There's a rumor that we're from
How old were you when you had your first kiss?
Este: Oh my god, so embarrassing!
Danielle: I was a late bloomer.
Este: I was a late bloomer too.
Danielle: I think I was 15.
Este: I was 15 also.
Alana: I think I was 14.
Este: I was pretty shy. I think I'm still pretty shy when it comes to that, you know. I never make the first move. Ever.
Alana: And we all had braces.
What band would you never admit to listening to (but now you are)?
Este: I downloaded the soundtrack to the Goofy movie.
Alana: Oh my God, that's not embarrassing at all.
Este: No, I downloaded it now is what I'm saying. I didn't download it when I was like 10.
Who is the weirdest person you've ever had a crush on?
Alana: I had a crush on Woody Allen growing up.
Danielle: That's not that weird.
Alana: Is Steve Buscemi a weird one? I love Steve Buscemi.
Este: I had a crush on James Earl Jones as a kid. His voice is really awesome. He was the voice of Mufasa, I think that's really where it comes from.
Has there ever been a love triangle situation between you guys?
Este: Well there's one person collectively that we're all in love with.
Danielle: If he ever came-a-knockin' he would have to choose...
Este: We've made an agreement that we'd be okay with it, and his name is Drake. There wouldn't even be a jealousy situation A because maybe he would become part of the family and we would hang out all the time.
Ever been invited to dinner with JAY Z and Queen Bey?
Alana: We got to meet him at a party, a Roc Nation party a while back. He was really nice and really excited that we were joining the company. I think we got pushed into him by accident. Someone literally like pushes us into him and we're like, "Hi we're HAIM" and he was like "Oh my God, you guys are awesome."
Este: It was the best day of my life.
What was your take on Miley's now infamous VMA performance?
Alana: Honestly, just do you. It didn't really shock me. She came back, had an awesome comeback... I love "We Can't Stop" - it's just a really dope song. I love her on "Ashtrays and Heartbreaks," the new Snoop Lion record. I think she's just doing her. I say do you. Obviously she's confident... I think she was just doing her and being a young girl, vibin', dancing with a bunch of teddy bears – that's my dream!
In fact, they love Miley so much that they covered her new song, "Wrecking Ball" for their BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge set. Check it out:
What is the last illegal thing you did?
Alana: Jaywalked.
Danielle: The first time I came here, actually I abided by the signs. It was my first actual
Este: I've gotten two jaywalking tickets in my life. In
Have you ever been fired?
Este: I worked at a clothing store and I asked for too many days off, and then was late the day that I asked for the day off. My boss was like. 'F*** this you're fired.' But it's fine cause then the store closed cause there was a rat problem, so...
Danielle: Karma!
Have you ever cheated?
Este: I got freaked out because I told an audience a couple weeks ago that I cheated on my SATs, which I did, and I was scared that UCLA was gonna call me and be like, 'Your diploma is now revoked.' I had a nightmare about that.
What's the last thing that really pissed you off?
Alana: Ohhh, I stubbed my toe. My toe nail totally turned black. That really pissed me off.
Este: The last thing to piss me of... when we were in G
Danielle: That was some bull sh*t.
Alana: That was some bull sh*t.
Este: We were outside taking pictures with fans, people at the festival just taking pictures, and this guy just came up – like sort of, I heard like screaming, I was like that's weird, and I then I kept getting closer and closer and closer, like his battle cry, and then he came like over to me and just poured water on my head. And its water like I don't give a sh*t – but it was the fact that he did it maliciously. Like if someone had spilled water I wouldn't care, but he did it maliciously. But then Alana went into mommy mode and took her bottle of water, ran after him, and poured her bottle all on his head.
Alana: As I should.
You guys are often compared to Fleetwood Mac. Growing up, who got to be Stevie?
Danielle: I think I really connected to Christine McVie. I feel like when you listen to Stevie, it's out there and you feel it, and Christine has a more subdued voice and I always felt like I did too. I think I connected to that.
Alana: You're the Christine and Este's the Stevie. Can I be the Lindsey?
Danielle: Yeah you can be the Lindsay.
Este: You can be the Lindsay. But then I also get to be Mick Fleetwood.
What do you wear to bed last night?
Danielle: Definitley not socks.
Este: You can't wear socks to bed. You need to let your dogs breathe.
How often do you shower?
Este: Everyday, sometimes twice a day. On tour it gets really hard...
Alana: The worst is festival season because you don't know what you're walking into when you walk into a festival shower.
Danielle: Especially on Sundays.
Alana: Yeah. We've had a Sunday festival where the toilets and the showers are, it could actually take your breath away how awful it is.
Este: Sometimes you know I'll just say I'm gonna wait till tomorrow.
Have you ever peed your pants?
Alana: Duh! I think one time Este made me laugh so hard I pissed my pants. I'm sure that happened. Este makes me laugh more than anyone in the whole universe.
Este: I definitely peed my pants in the last ten years. Definitely had that situation. I think I was a little tipsy and a little bit out of it...
Danielle: It's okay it happens.
Este: You can't be perfect all the time.
What's the meanest thing you've ever said to your manager?
Alana: At the party where we met Jay-Z, it was really hard to get into – there were like two different rooms.
Danielle: Oh yeah it was kind of like the gamble. Which room is Jay-Z gonna end up in?
Alana: So we all picked one room and of course Jay-Z went to the other room. We didn't know what to do. The food was in one room, and obviously we go where the food goes. And so we were eating and we see everyone just bum-rushing this one door, and I see all the security gaurds and literally you see like Beyonce, Rihanna, Miguel and Jay-Z basically walk into the room. I was like, 'Alright let's just go try and get in.' So we're literally aiting forever and forever and forever. Este uses her diabetes to get in for the first time. Este goes, 'I'm diabetic, I left my insulin in that room – I need to get in' and they're like, 'Okay fine.' Este gets in so now it's just me and Danielle.
Este: This is insanely preposterous first of all. It's like me saying I left my pancreas in the other room. But the guards don't know that so I got in.
Alana: Este was like it's do or die – I'm going to meet Jay-Z. So then Este's in and then all of a sudden I'm just like talking to someone and I'm with my friend Savanha and we're like just talking then all of a sudden we're like where did Danielle go and then someone was like your sister just like walked in with a huge group of people and I was just like what?!
Danielle: Sometimes when you see your chance you just gotta take it. You know what I mean. You can't hesitate. I didn't hesitate, I wanted to be in that room.
Alana: So literally, one HAIM down and out of all three HAIMs I'm the WORST at getting in places by myself. I cannot do it, I have no poker face. Everyone knows like this girl's not allowed to be in this room. And so I was like Oh my god like literally in my head I could see the future like Este and Danielle are totally gonna meet Beyonce and Jay-Z and I'm gonna be stuck out here actually crying and so sad so I like texted my manager who was also in the room and I was like "if you meet Beyonce and Jay-Z without me I will never talk to you ever again." And then the next text was "I'm not kidding." And then all of a sudden he got me in the last ten seconds. I literally walked in and then got pushed into Jay-Z.
What's the most shameful thing you've ever spent money on?
Este: I definitely bought a topsy turvy.
Alana: (Laughs) That is pretty shameful!
Alana: The topsy turvy is a tomato grower.
Alana: There's an infomercial for it.
Este: I didn't want to pay for the shipping and handling so I bought it at CVS. The infomercial makes it look like it's the easiest thing in the world to grow tomatoes. I was like I don't want to spend money on tomatoes at whole foods so I'm gonna make them organic by myself. And I did and it was great but I bought a topsy turvy.
What's the last thing you lied about?
Alana: I told my parents I was gonna go to sleep but I went out. I'm also 21 and should probably not be telling my parents that I'm going out, I should probably just do it. But they came to New York to see us and we were like exhausted but I think it was like after our show we were so exhausted and they're like you should go to sleep and I was like I'm totally gonna go to sleep, then I went out. Lie. Sorry Mom and Dad.

Obama Awards Medals Of Freedom
(Washington, DC) -- More than a dozen distinguished Americans are now recipients of Medals of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor. Hosting a White House ceremony, President Obama said the honorees include pioneers, innovators and fierce competitors who became true champions. Obama said recipient Oprah Winfrey has always pushed the simple, powerful message of -- "You can." He noted that Oprah's greatest strength has always been her ability to "help us discover the best in ourselves." Obama said former President Bill Clinton has long-championed struggling families and stressed that Clinton has spread that focus around the world since leaving the White House.
The list of recipients include the late Hawaii Senator Daniel Inouye, former Indiana Senator Richard Lugar, college basketball coaching legend Dean Smith and Hall of Fame baseball player Ernie Banks. Other honorees include country singer Loretta Lynn, retired "Washington Post" editor Ben Bradlee, feminist icon Gloria Steinem and the late Sally Ride, the first American female astronaut to travel to space. President Obama noted that President John F. Kennedy created the Medal of Freedom five decades ago. Kennedy was assassinated, 50-years ago this week.

Reports: Sterling to allow wife to sell Clippers
(SportsNetwork.com) - Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling may go down without a fight after all.
Earlier this week, the NBA initiated a formal charge to end Sterling's ownership of the team he bought in 1981 and reports Friday indicate that the embattled owner will allow his wife, Shelly, to negotiate a sale.
ESPN said Shelly Sterling and her lawyers have already begun talks with the NBA about a sale, and celebrity gossip website TMZ.com cited sources as saying Donald Sterling made the decision because he believes the NBA will eventually force him to sell.
NBA commissioner Adam Silver last month banned Donald Sterling for life and fined him $2.5 million over racist comments the Clippers owner made that were recorded by his girlfriend and posted online.
Silver also said April 29 he would urge the other owners to force Sterling to sell the team. The NBA says its constitution provides grounds to terminate Sterling's ownership.
On the heels of the NBA's decision earlier this week, Sterling has until May 27 to respond to the charge. Under the NBA constitution, he also has the right to make a presentation at a special meeting of the Board of Governors planned for June 3.
Sterling had reportedly threatened to sue the NBA and said he would not pay the fine, claiming through a lawyer that he has done nothing wrong and his punishment is unwarranted.
Audio of Sterling urging his girlfriend not to bring African-Americans to Clippers games and disparaging Magic Johnson was first published by TMZ. Deadspin.com later posted a longer clip.
The comments sent shockwaves through the league, leading to a protest from Clippers players, who dropped warmup jackets at midcourt before a playoff game and practiced with their shirts turned inside-out to hide the team's logo.
Sterling told CNN's Anderson Cooper he "is not a racist" and "made a terrible, terrible mistake," but also took further shots at Johnson, saying the Hall-of- Fame former Lakers star doesn't do enough for the black community.
The Clippers lost to Oklahoma City in the Western Conference semifinals.
