Question: DR Congo main opposition musters rare authorised rally

UDPS opposition party leader Felix Tshisekedi gestures to supporters as he arrives to address a rally in Kinshasa on April 24, 2018, the first opposition rally authorized since September 2016. By Junior D. KANNAH (AFP)
The first authorised mass rally by the Democratic Republic of Congo's opposition in nearly two years passed off peacefully on Tuesday, months ahead of a key presidential election in the vast, mineral-rich state.
Thousands of members and supporters of the Union for Democracy and Social Progress (UDPS) gathered in the capital Kinshasa to hear their leader, Felix Tshisekedi, outline some of his party's electoral aims.
In a major climbdown from the government, Tuesday's rally was given the go-ahead by authorities after several opposition protests in recent months were met by a deadly security crackdown.
"We applaud the police's restraint. They are going to have to learn to treat us like citizens and not like adversaries," Tshisekedi told the crowd.
The mood at the rally, in a UDPS stronghold district of the capital, was upbeat amid a discreet police presence.
Public demonstrations have been officially banned in the country since September 2016, when dozens of demonstrators were killed in Kinshasa after calling for the departure of President Joseph Kabila, whose second and final mandate ended in December 2016.
A new vote is due to take place on December 23 after two postponements that have stoked fears of renewed unrest.
Kabila should have stepped down at the end of 2016 but has remained in office under a provision allowing him to retain power until a successor is chosen.
In addition to a deepening political crisis, DR Congo is struggling with armed conflict in its vast, lawless east, which is under the sway of multiple rebel groups.
'A new beginning'
The date of Tuesday's rally was significant as it came 28 years to the day that a multi-party system was first introduced when former dictator Mobutu Sese Seko lifted a ban on opposition parties.
But the country has never had a peaceful transfer of power. Recent banned opposition demonstrations have seen dozens killed, according to the UN, many near the headquarters of Tshisekedi's party.
The opposition leader Tuesday addressed a recently signed agreement with the government to repatriate the body of his late father, Etienne Tshisekedi, a historic opposition figure, who died in February 2017 in Brussels.
But he firmly denied rumours that he was in discussions with Kabila to be appointed prime minister.
"Apart from the discussions around the funeral, there are no other discussions," said Tshisekedi, who was chosen as the UDPS's presidential candidate in March.
"You chose me as a presidential candidate so why would I want to be prime minister?" he asked.
He also repeated his opposition to the proposed use of electronic voting machines during the December 23 vote.
UDPS Christian Mokonkole told AFP that Tuesday's rally represented "a new beginning for our leadership".
"If we have elections organised at the end of this year, we are supporting him (Tshisekedi) to win this election and to start our project to develop this country," Mokonkole added.
DR Congo -- home to the world's largest UN peacekeeping force -- has vast mineral wealth and natural resources but decades of chronic unrest has severely hampered development.
Meanwhile, Lumuna Sando, a former spokesman for Mobutu and government heavyweight, said "nothing much has changed" since Mobutu lifted the ban on the opposition.
"There are similarities in the debate, the behaviour and the positions taken by Congolese politicians," he said.

Political opponents and the main trade union group are critical of the Nigerian president's economic policies. A Burundi government minister is assassinated. And the authorities in Bujumbura say they'll take action against the African Union over the non-payment of salaries to peacekeepers serving in Somalia.
In Nigeria the main story in the daily paper Punch has the opposition Peoples Democratic Party and the Trade Union Congress calling on President Muhammadu Buhari to change his economic policies in order to bring the country out of economic stagnation.
Opposition figures want the government to take on competent experts to fix the economy. There have also been calls for an increase in the money supply and an end to high taxation.
It is claimed that Nigeria's economy, once the largest and fastest growing national economy in Africa, is now rated in the lower t30s.
Bad year for Nigerian investors
The main story over at the Guardian would seem to support the gloomy view, with a report that the Nigerian stock exchange lost 26 percent in the course of last year.
Embittered by the outrageous losses suffered by stock market investors, stakeholders blamed the development on government’s unfavourable policies and neglect of the market.
Burundi back in the headlines
Burundi is on quite a few front pages this morning.
BusinessDay in South Africa reports the shooting dead yesterday morning of Environment Minister Emmanuel Niyonkuru.
According to the Johannesburg-based paper, the murder, the first of a serving government minister since Burundi sank into turmoil over President Pierre Nkurunziza’s controversial bid for a third term in 2015, comes after months of relative calm.
A police statement says that a woman has been arrested following the "assassination".
No salaries for Somalia peacekeepers
Burundi has threatened to sue the African Union over failure to pay peacekeeping troops serving in Somalia, according to the front page of regional paper the East African.
Nkurunziza said the Burundian forces serving under the African Union Mission in Somalia (Amisom) have gone for more than a year without salaries.
With 5,432 soldiers in Somalia, Burundi is the second contributor of troops to the Somali mission after Uganda. Kenya, Ethiopia and Djibouti also have peacekeepers in Somalia.
Amisom has struggled to pay its 22,000-strong peacekeepers fighting the Al-Shebab terrorist group after the main financier, the European Union, cut its funding by 20 percent last year.
Tanzanians charged with trespass in Malawi
Eight Tanzanians recently arrested for alleged spying in Malawi have been charged, the East African tells us.
Tanzanian diplomats confirmed the arrests near the Kayelekera uranium mine but denied that those arrested were spies, saying they were a team from the Catholic relief organisation Caritas.
The Tanzanians were charged with criminal trespass and are currently being held at Mzuzu Prison pending a mention of their case later this week.
Kenyan election reform legislation enters final stages
The Kenyan legal affairs committee this week embarks on the final phase of collecting views over contentious election laws.
Opposition senators are reported by the Nairobi-based Daily Nation to be holding to hardline positions over the bill, which saw the opposition threaten mass action if it becomes law.
If endorsed by the Senate, the Bill will be sent to the president for assent. The legislation provides for the use of manual backup in the identification of voters and transmission of election results in the event the electronic system fails.
Names to watch out for as Kenya prepares to vote
Over at sister paper the Standard, the main story looks at the crucial political players as the country faces an election year.
President Uhuru Kenyatta and his deputy William Ruto are clearly key players, says the Standard, since they have the power to influence legislation which will determine how this year's polls are conducted.
Raila Odinga, leader of the opposition Colaition for Reforms and Democracy is another crucial figure, even if he has yet to confirm his status as a candidate.

Question: Trump Turns To 43-Year-Old 'America First' Trade Law To Pressure China

Represent the article to find a fitting news title

President Trump on Monday authorized his top trade official to look into whether China is guilty of intellectual property theft, a move that could eventually lead to trade sanctions.
Trump called his action "a very big move" against practices that cost our nation "millions of jobs and billions and billions of dollars each and every year."
He cited not just the theft of intellectual property such as computer software, but also Beijing's requirement that U.S. companies turn over proprietary technology as a condition of entering China's markets.
"We will safeguard the copyrights, patents, trademarks, trade secrets and other intellectual property that is so vital to our security and to our prosperity," Trump said at the White House. He was flanked by U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and members of his economic team.
Monday's steps were very preliminary, and analysts say that it could be a long time, if ever, before significant trade sanctions are imposed on China.
Eventually, it could lead the administration to initiate what's called a Section 301 investigation, a sanctions mechanism that's part of the Trade Act of 1974.
Section 301 was widely used in the 1980s under the Reagan administration, but subsequent presidents have chosen to hear trade disputes at the World Trade Organization.
Matt Gold, a former deputy assistant U.S. trade representative, told NPR that Section 301 can be imposed unilaterally and is generally seen as quicker than the alternatives, such as the WTO.
"It saves time," he said. A WTO case "would take a few years for us to bring it to a WTO panel, get a decision, then it will get appealed to the WTO appellate body. Then we get another decision. Then we have to go through another WTO process to get authorization for specific types of trade barriers. ... So it can take a few years to get the WTO authorization."
The White House move was applauded by technology groups, which have long complained about intellectual property theft. The Information Technology and Innovation Foundation issued a statement saying "for too long China has flouted the spirit, if not always the letter of its commitments under the WTO and other agreements."
Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, said launching the investigation sends a strong signal to China that it will be held accountable if it doesn't work with the United States to level the playing field. But he said the Trump administration needs to go further to address dumping of products such as steel.
"We need to follow through with meaningful action and that means the president needs to get serious about trade enforcement, especially on steel," Brown said.
But there are risks to the White House approach. Carolyn Freund, a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, says U.S. companies that try to do business with China could get hurt in several ways.
"China is likely to retaliate with tariffs on their own of U.S. goods, and then U.S. companies will be further hurt in China," she said. "It won't lead to anything positive."
In an editorial on Monday, the state-run newspaper China Daily said the investigation will "poison" relations.
But Freund also points out that for all of Trump's rhetoric about China while on the campaign trail, the White House so far has been slow to take action against unfair trade practices. Trump backed off of labeling China a currency manipulator for instance, and a long promised report on steel dumping has been delayed.
She says that's because it's one thing to talk about steel tariffs, but imposing them hurts other U.S. manufacturers, such as automakers and appliance companies.

Question: Ont. towns struggle to pay for infrastructure

Represent this text to find a news title for it:

As communities age and money for big projects dries up, top municipal officials are saying “something has to give.”
A report on the perspective of chief administrative officers (CAOs) — by Strategy Corp. — found that just as Toronto is struggling to find ways to pay for much-needed infrastructure work, smaller communities, too, are finding it increasingly difficult to come with badly-needed cash.
“You thought Toronto was just having these problems,” said John Matheson, report co-author and a principal at Strategy Corp. “Actually, the report indicates it’s the municipal sector as a whole ... These problems are fairly common across Ontario which is why it’s important people pay attention to them.”
The group interviewed 26 CAOs — the top bureaucrats of towns, counties or cities — to get their views on the future of municipal government. The report focuses on small- to medium-size communities, and was provided exclusively to the Toronto Sun.
The report says CAOs are seeing a gap between what the public expects of local government and what they are prepared to pay for has grown. One participant told the authors “something has to give.”
The report says councillors in those communities are hesitant to raise taxes or create new revenue streams to pay for the work which isn’t surprising, he added.
“There’s a lot of infrastructure put in the ground between 50 and 75 years ago,” Matheson said, adding that years of deferring infrastructure work are catching up with communities.
The CAOs also expressed concern about the rise of a divisive brand of populism in city halls across Ontario. A number of councillors are mimicking U.S. President Donald Trump’s brash style, often publicly attacking bureaucrats and questioning their work.
“(Municipal governments) are not designed to have a somebody on council who is structurally opposing everything,” he said. “It’s contributing to only half of them saying they had good relations with their councils.”
The interviews used for the report were conducted confidentially. The findings offer a rare, unvarnished view of major issues taking place in these towns and cities, said Ron Shaw, a senior advisor with Strategy Corp who co-authored the report.
Shaw, a former CAO with over 30 years experience in Stratford and Kincardine, said top municipal bureaucrats don’t want to be critical of their communities publicly.
“They’re not going to say much different than what their councillors may be saying,” he added. “They want to make sure they represent the views of the municipality. Speaking confidentially, they can speak to us ... and give honest, open feedback.”
Releasing the report at the Association of Municipalities of Ontario’s annual meeting in Ottawa this week will help bring the concerns of the CAOs into focus, he said.
Matheson added that the concerns raised in the report will need to be addressed through a variety of means, including the provision of more cash to municipalities.

The city needs to find millions of dollars to separate rail from roads in the southern suburb now that the Barrhaven Rail Safety Program has council’s endorsement.
The first step is to free up money in the 2018 municipal budget, possibly in the $3-million range, to order environmental assessments for the crossings at Woodroffe Avenue, the southwest Transitway, and Fallowfield, Merivale and Jockvale roads.
The next step is to convince the upper-tier governments and Via Rail to help cover the construction tabs.
Building overpasses or underpasses at five rail crossings could cost $430 million, but that estimate is highly preliminary and doesn’t take into account the complete scope of work that might be required.
Council’s vote Wednesday means the city has a general blueprint to do the work, including a priority list for the crossings.
Woodroffe Avenue and the southwest Transitway — the site of the fatal collision between an OC Transpo bus and a Via Rail train in 2013 — are at the top of the list. The city would build a road and Transitway overpass there.
Jockavale Road is last on the priority list, but the city wants to advance a study in the shorter term to build a $6-million pedestrian and cycling underpass at the intersection.
Via wants to increase the number of trains passing through Barrhaven as part of its regular service plans, but it also has dreams of running additional trains through the corridor through a high-frequency train proposal to the federal government.
Council puts more money into asset repairs, trying to close a major funding gap
Some councillors batted around the idea of a separate tax to pay for asset repairs, but there was no way an infrastructure levy was going to fly in the current political climate.
Kitchissipi Coun. Jeff Leiper brought up a staff position from 2012 that suggested an infrastructure levy might be required if there isn’t more upper-government funding for asset maintenance.
City treasurer Marian Simulik said she doesn’t support an infrastructure levy, largely based on history.
A levy was attempted during Larry O’Brien’s mayoral term but it fizzled out.
The levy “created too much pressure on your taxpayers,” Simulik told council Wednesday.
The city is short $70 million to keep the assets in good condition. It will try making up the difference over the next 10 years.
Council voted in favour of spending $10.5 million more in the 2018 budget on asset maintenance and $7.8 million annually starting in the 2019 budget for nine years. There will also be inflationary increases to the spending.
College Coun. Rick Chiarelli, who’s skeptical about the city’s approach to funding repairs, voted against the strategy.
Watson highlights ‘extraordinary’ efforts by city on drug overdose prevention, calls for sustained effort
Mayor Jim Watson promoted the “extraordinary” efforts by the city to prevent opioid drug overdoses, announcing a larger effort this summer during the festival season.
Watson said the health unit will be working with festival organizers again to distribute “party safe information.” The city ramps up its public awareness campaign about substance abuse around this time of year before the festival season begins.
Ottawa Public Health learned this week that it will receive $350,000 more in base funding from the provincial government for opioid response programs.
“We’re ready to turn this funding into support on the ground,” Watson said.
All Ottawa firetrucks now carry naloxone kits and the city is preparing to train police on administering the drug antidote.
Watson said more help from the federal and provincial governments is “badly needed.”
The city will continue to work with community agencies on public education.
“Ongoing and sustained efforts will be required,” Watson said.
Late-night patios get consideration for Canada Day weekend
Restaurant patios on city sidewalks have a shot at staying open until 4 a.m. during the Canada Day weekend.
According to the bylaw, patios on city-owned property and within 30 metres of a residential zone must close by 11 p.m. No one can be on the patio after that time.
The Fox and Feather on Elgin Street asked to extend its patio hours until 2 a.m., instead of the mandated 11 a.m. cutoff, between June 30 and July 2.
Council on Wednesday agreed to the pub’s request and it also gave the planning department the authority to assess any other requests from businesses with patios on city-owned property. The drop-dead closing time for a patio would be 4 a.m., but only for the Canada Day weekend.
Alcohol at licensed establishments can only be served until 2 a.m. under provincial law.

Question: Cavaliers And Warriors To Make History In NBA Finals

Represent this text to find a news title for it.

By Matt Citak
As sports fans, we sometimes take things for granted. It’s not entirely our fault. In this day and age, it just seems as if we’ve just seen everything. So when something truly special happens, it doesn’t always attract the appreciation it deserves.
Such is the case for the amazing rivalry that has developed between the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers over the last few seasons.
We have seen some mighty clashes over the years. There’s no denying that the competition during the 1980s between Magic Johnson and the Los Angeles Lakers and Larry Bird and the Boston Celtics was fierce.
From 1980-1989, at least one of these two teams was represented in each NBA Finals. The Lakers took home five titles, while the Celtics managed to win three. Los Angeles and Boston owned the decade, but at the end of the era, these two legendary franchises only met in the championship three times in four years.
A look at rivalries in other sports reveals similar storylines.
The Dallas Cowboys and Pittsburgh Steelers lead the way for the NFL, having met three times in the Super Bowl. However these three match-ups occurred in 1976, 1979, and 1996. You’d have to go all the way back to the early 1950s, before the NFL-AFL merger, to find the same two teams vying for a championship in three consecutive years (the Detroit Lions and Cleveland Browns, 1952-1954).
>>MORE: NBA Coverage
In the NHL, you also have to turn back the clock to the early 50s, when goalies did not wear face masks, to find the sport’s latest and only trilogy. The Detroit Red Wings and Montreal Canadiens met in the Stanley Cup Finals from 1954-1956. No two teams have done this since.
It’s been almost a century in MLB. The New York Giants and the New York Yankees are the only teams to meet in three straight World Series, and it happened from 1921-1923.
Intense rivalries, at the highest level, do not happen often. This is why what the Cavaliers and Warriors have accomplished over the last few years is a truly spectacular.
For the first time in American sports history, two teams will go toe-to-toe in the championship for the fourth consecutive year.
But it didn’t always look as if the Warriors and Cavs’ round-four matchup would happen.
Golden State dealt with injuries to all four of the team’s all-stars this season. Kevin Durant and Steph Curry sat out the most of the four, combining to miss 45 games during the regular season. Curry was also absent in the postseason until Game 2 of the Conference Semifinals.
Golden State then had to get past a Houston Rockets squad that led the league in wins and was structured to match up against this Warriors squad, which obviously was no easy task. They lost former Finals MVP Andre Iguodala in Game 3, and found themselves down 3-2 — backs to the wall — heading into Game 6.
But the Warriors battled and found a way to persevere, winning Games 6 and 7 to clinch their spot in the Finals.
Things looked even more uncertain in Cleveland this season. After Kyrie Irving forced his way out of town last summer, LeBron James was left with a rather weak supporting cast.
Upon struggling throughout the first half of the season, the Cavaliers shook things up at the trade deadline. Cleveland sent six players packing to various cities while infusing the team with some youth by acquiring Jordan Clarkson, Larry Nance Jr., George Hill and Rodney Hood.
The Cavs finished the season as the Eastern Conference’s No. 4 seed, and needed seven games to get past the Indiana Pacers in the first round of the playoffs. Things also looked gloomy during the Eastern Conference Finals, as James and Co. went down 3-2 against the Celtics.
But as we’ve seen many times before, James put Cleveland on his back and guided the team to back-to-back victories, even playing all 48 minutes in Game 7.
LeBron has now scored 612 points in the 2018 playoffs, the most ever in a single postseason heading into the Finals. He needs only 148 points to break Michael Jordan’s record of 759 points in the 1992 postseason, and considering that he is averaging 34.0 points per game through the first three rounds, this seems like a realistic accomplishment.
So NBA fans, one year later, we are right back where we left off — Golden State vs. Cleveland, Round 4. And everyone should be thrilled with this Finals matchup.
We must applaud what these two franchises have done over the last four seasons. We should enjoy watching five of the last six NBA MVPs who will play in this matchup.
And, most importantly, we should appreciate the moment, as we are watching something that has never been done before, and may never happen again.
We are witnessing American sports history.

Butler High School's seniors battled it out on the softball diamond with police officers from their township and Bloomingdale to raise money for a 10-year-old Wayne boy hurt by a drunk driver.
The police officers won the game 10-2 on Tuesday night, but all participates came out winners, said organizers.
The charity game was organized to raise funds and the spirits of Matthew Polifonte's family.
The Wayne boy was on his way to lacrosse practice in March with his mother, Lori, when their vehicle was rear-ended while stopped at a traffic light on Ratzer Road. The driver who struck them, a Wayne woman, was eventually charged with driving while intoxicated.

While Lori Polifonte was not seriously injured, Matthew suffered severe head injuries, said his father Leo Polifonte. The boy was quickly placed in a medical-induced coma as part of the treatment, said his father.
"He is out of the coma and he's healing little by little," Leo Polifonte said.
The game's co-organizer, Robert Grabowski, Matthew's uncle, is a Bloomingdale patrolman and PBA president. "We are all here to support him and show him that we love him."
Co-organizer, Butler patrolman Kyle Fontanazzo said the game also served as a "learning moment" for the departing Butler senior class.
"Hopefully these guys take something away from this," Fontanzzo said. "We are just making sure the kids are smart about drinking and driving."
Monies were raised with the help of the local Outback Steakhouse, which grilled up burgers and chicken for the fans and players. Part of the restaurant's proceeds from the event were donated to the Polifonte family.
The amount raised is still being determined, the organizers said.
Anyone who wishes to make a donation may do so by emailing Grabowski rgrawoski@bloomingdalepolice.com for details.

Dear Amy: My boyfriend and I have been on/off for the last five years.
During the time we were apart, he had another girlfriend. I didn’t know about her. He and I maintained a “friends with benefits” relationship during our breaks.
After I became pregnant with his child, I found out that they were very serious. I learned that she was pregnant, too. Our sons were born nine days apart.
They are no longer together, and he and I are trying to work things out, but I can’t seem to let their relationship go.
I know that Facebook isn’t “life,” but it bothers me that their entire relationship was broadcast on FB, but he won’t even acknowledge us as being in a relationship.
He has never posted a picture of us or of our son.
He says he’s ashamed of himself (not of me), but I can’t help but feel like he’s not being truthful. I think he’s ashamed of me.
He tells me all the time: “You’re not her,” which makes me feel like he wishes he wasn’t with me. He says I’m being insecure, and that he’s never going to care about Facebook.
I just don’t get why he could care about his Facebook status when he was with her, but not with me?
Am I being stupid?
— Worried
Dear Worried: When you ask me if you’re being “stupid,” you run the risk of supplying me with a descriptor I’d rather not apply to a woman with a young child. However, this whole situation is unfortunate — because Rome is burning and you’re worried about your Facebook status.
I do agree that this status is a sign of where your guy’s priorities are, and while I’m not inclined to side with him, I do appreciate his embarrassment over fathering two babies (days apart) with two different women. Yes, he should feel embarrassed. He deceived both women (I imagine), and now his ability to be a good parent to both of his sons is compromised because one baby’s mother is insecure and threatened by the other. This impedes his ability to be present in his sons’ lives.
Your guy is not in charge of Facebook. You should post whatever photos you want the world to see. When people start to realize that your partner has two sons the same age with different women, he (and you) will face some questions.
Please understand that parenthood will not magically change your guy’s character. You should get all of your legal, custodial and financial ducks in a row regarding the child, encourage this man to be a good father to both of his children, but understand that he may not intend to lead a monogamous life.
Dear Amy: My “adult” 23-year-old son is home for the holidays.
He leads a more liberal lifestyle than my husband and me, and suffice it to say not only do our politics not match up, but neither do our hygiene practices.
To be blunt, his BO is killing us! I didn’t raise him this way and I absolutely can’t stand it.
I just can’t embrace not showering daily and not using a daily dose of antiperspirant.
How do you address an awkward and difficult topic with a person who is also awkward and difficult?
— Mother of the Smelly Kid
Dear Mother: I assume you have heard the term “adulting.” This is a recently minted verb to describe the process that people in their 20s are now undertaking to finally exit their lengthy childhoods. Adulting refers to assuming some life skills, such as doing dishes, paying bills, and — yes, cleaning oneself.
I’m assuming that you did teach your son these skills, but your fear of mentioning this now indicates that you are actually afraid to relate to him both as a parent and as a fellow adult.
(This doesn’t have anything to do with your politics — or his — by the way.)
Tell your son, “We love having you home. But you’ve got to wash yourself — and your clothes — while you’re here. Let me show you how to use the washer, and let’s put in a load.”
Dear Readers: My own life is probably a lot like yours. I’ve experienced poverty, prosperity, marriage, divorce, remarriage, step-parenting, caretaking, loss and grief. If you’ve ever been curious about the life behind the advice column, I hope you’ll consider picking up my memoir, “Strangers Tend to Tell Me Things: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Coming Home.” (2017, Hachette).

WATFORD, Ont. — Ontario NDP Leader Andrea Horwath had an unexpected campaign stop during her swing through southwestern Ontario on Wednesday — a campaign bus breakdown.
Horwath's bus, dubbed the "Proletariat Chariot" by media riding on it for the campaign, experienced mechanical problems on Highway 402 near Watford, Ont.
The bus pulled over safely after a burning smell started to enter the cabin.
A faulty fanbelt was believed to be the problem.

Question: Loyola returns home for Sweet 16 prep as talk of Chicago

Represent the article to find a fitting news title

CHICAGO – These sure are sweet times for Loyola-Chicago.
Two last-second shots — two prayers answered — vaulted the Ramblers to the Sweet 16 and placed them right in the national spotlight.
“Coach (Porter Moser) has been talking about how ‘You think this is good? Look around. You think this is good? Well, it’s gonna get even better,'” guard Ben Richardson said. “It’s just kind of been bought into that, like put it in the bag and move on.”
The Ramblers are moving on to face Nevada after two breathtaking victories, a run that has captivated college basketball and turned 98-year-old team chaplain Sister Jean Dolores Schmidt into a celebrity.
They knocked off Miami on Dante Ingram’s buzzer-beating 3-pointer from the March Madness logo, then got the sweetest of all bounces on Clayton Custer’s jumper in the closing seconds to beat Tennessee in Dallas. On Monday, they were back home preparing for Nevada.
The Ramblers (30-5) will bring more wins than any other team in the program’s 100-year history into Thursday’s game in Atlanta, having surpassed their 1963 champions during this NCAA run.
No small accomplishment for a team that struggled for decades following a Sweet 16 loss to Patrick Ewing and Georgetown in 1985. Loyola went 14 seasons without a winning record at one point. The first few years after Moser took over in 2011 weren’t so smooth, either.
They’ve gone from 7-23 with just one win in the Horizon League in his first season to capturing the Missouri Valley Championship, from small home crowds to their first sellout in 15 years, from obscurity to centre stage. It’s quite a turnaround for the Jesuit school of about 16,000 along the lakefront on Chicago’s northern edge.
For guard Lucas Williamson, it’s been a nonstop flow of well-wishes and congratulations. Whether it’s from posts on social media, students coming up to him in the dorm or professors wishing the team well in classes, they keep pouring in.
“I love all the appreciation,” said Williamson, a Chicago product.
Even former President Barack Obama gave the Ramblers — and Sister Jean — a shoutout. He tweeted after the first-round win: “Congrats to @LoyolaChicago and Sister Jean for a last-second upset – I had faith in my pick!”
“I can’t even start to put into words the outreach that we’ve had across the country from so many people,” Moser said. “When you have a media market like Chicago … you can’t put into words (what it means to the school). I’m sure in the months ahead they’ll be put into a more detailed impact. But right now, it’s just fun for the university to have this kind of national recognition.”
And he’s not shying away from the attention.
“The media scrutiny, the spotlight, it’s great for them,” Moser said. “They’re mature enough to handle it. They’ve been handling it now for a month straight. I’m not that guy that’s gonna hold back and not enjoy this journey. They’re enjoying it. But they’re gonna absolutely … be locked in, ready to go.”
That means figuring out a way to beat a team that just pulled off quite a shocker.
Nevada wiped out a 22-point deficit in the final 11 minutes to match the second-biggest comeback in NCAA Tournament history and knock out Cincinnati. The Wolf Pack (28-7) are in the Sweet 16 for the second time. Otherwise, it would have been Ramblers against Bearcats in a matchup that sure would have sparked flashbacks to the ’63 title game. That year, Loyola beat two-time defending champion Cincinnati in a landmark moment for racial equality.
“Super, super, super talented offensive team,” Richardson said about Nevada. “You’ve gotta give credit to a team like that that fought back from a huge deficit. That’s just the kind of stuff that happens in March. You’ve always gotta be ready for a team to make a historic comeback. That’s a tribute to the way they play, they play super hard, they’re a really talented offensive team, and there’ll definitely be a lot of things we have to game plan for because they’re definitely a tough matchup.”
Something else that might concern Loyola: Sister Jean had them losing in the Sweet 16 in her bracket.
“Sister Jean, she’s been our biggest supporter,” Williamson said. “And she’s definitely gonna be our biggest supporter. But we’re gonna have to bust her bracket on this one.”

Question: Using vehicles as weapons easy and cheap: expert

In some places, garbage and fire trucks are being put in place at entrances to festivals or markets, he adds.
Similar safety measures were in effect in Toronto on Monday night, with streets closed near the Air Canada Centre where the Maple Leafs were playing an NHL playoff game.
Wilner says several vehicles used in recent attacks have been rentals and there may be some appetite for creating a registry to help prevent similar occurrences. What a registry or database would look like is unclear, he adds.
Mubin Shaikh, an expert on counterterrorism, says he thinks a no rental list would be a reactive measure that would have minimal impact.
If there are restrictions on rentals, people can still borrow or steal vehicles, he notes.
"A criminal will try to take whatever they can, however they can," he says.
"Will it deter the determined attacker? Probably not."
Shaikh, who is from Toronto, said he heard about Monday's tragedy after landing at an air force base in Germany where he was scheduled to give a briefing on attacks using vehicles.
"Unfortunately, this is the reality in which we live nowadays," he said, adding that he's become hyper-vigilant when walking down the street and is constantly looking for cement planters or pillars that he could hide behind if a vehicle jumps the curb.
"At the end of the day, it's impossible (to prevent). We live in an open society and vehicles are in our proximity all the time. That's normal city life."

NEW HAVEN -- Tens of thousands of Connecticut commuters use mass transit to head in and out of New York City every week. And now, security is at the forefront once again.
Monday morning's attempted suicide bombing, in a tunnel connecting New York's Port Authority Terminal and the 42nd Street subway station, did not achieve its desired result, an indication of inexperience, says a local national security expert.
"It was a partial detonation of the main charge and it was an unsuccessful event for that terrorist," said Jibey Asthappan, Ph.D., an associate professor of National Security at the University of New Haven.
The alleged suicide bomber is from Bangladesh, where there have been numerous Isis inspired attacks of late.
"Of course, they’ve had several calls for attacks in the west in the recent months," said Vesna Markovic, Ph.D., an assistant professor of Criminal Justice and National Security and an Assistant Dean in the Henry C. Lee College of Criminal Justice and Forensic Sciences at the University of New Haven.
Suicide bombs, she said, have been a prominent method of terrorism since the early 1980s.
"Sometimes they feel that that’s the only way to fight against an enemy, who is stronger," said Markovic. "So, they sacrificed themselves to carry out an attack."
Because the man arrested for this bombing is Muslim, the leader of a local mosque reasserted that true Islam rejects violence.
"The violence against your nation is against the US Constitution and against the teachings of the holy Qur'an," said Salman Tariq, Iman for Baitul Aman Mosque in Meriden.
With airports largely secure, some travelers also expect train and subway stations and bus terminals to be hardened.
"They have to weigh also security versus freedom and not become a police state where you have guards at every location," said Markovic, who adds that public needs to keep their eyes and ears peeled at these other transportation centers.
She added that the U.S. does not see as many suicides as other countries because because it's much easier to get and use guns and vehicles for acts of terror than to secure material for explosives.

Question: Woman Tried Hiding In the Ceiling at Grayton Road Tavern

Jennifer Natale, the general manager at Grayton Road Tavern, got a phone call on Monday night regarding the ceilings.
"It was honestly just one of those phone calls you don't really ever think you're going to get," Natale explained. "I asked her to put me on FaceTime, she did that and it was true. There was a person who crawled up into the ceiling."
"It was a really hot day. I can't even imagine how hot it was for that two-hour period," Natale said.
Natale's employees saw the woman who had used the women's bathroom as the headquarters for her ceiling climb. The police were called the ceiling escape artist was discovered in the kitche narea.
Grayton Road Tavern is notorious for the Queen of Hearts game, (one winner won $5.5 million in March). This could have been a motive, but Natale explains that the money is not kept in the restauraunt.
Police told Natale and the Grayton Road Tavern staff that the ceiling cirque du soleil mastermind was no stranger to criminal stunts.
Let's hope there aren't anymore craziness in the ceilings this summer, okay Cleveland?

Question: Makeblock's Lego-like 'Neuron' teaches kids robotics and code

There are six kits available: Explorer, Explorer Pro, Light Wizard, Science Lab, Smart Life and All-in-One. Each is equipped with basic blocks like a light sensor and adjustment knob, with the different kits featuring specialized blocks geared toward a child's interests, like cold cathode, WiFi and camera blocks. Others include a voice sensor, Bluetooth, ultrasonic and display module.
Once your kit is set up, you can program it using Makeblock's mBlock, a graphical and flow-based programming system, with "no prior coding knowledge necessary," the company says. It also promises steady updates to allow for new projects and capabilities. mBlock is based on Scratch 2.0, a code teaching program, so it should be easy for kids who've done some Arduino programming to pick up.
Other features include remote control via WiFi (letting kids water plants or feed pets via a smartphone), high durability, third-party software (including Microsoft's Cognitive Services AI platform) and Lego compatibility, presumably letting you marry Neuron with Mindstorms, or at least use Lego blocks as structural elements in projects.
The Makebot Neuron project is launching on Kickstarter starting at $69, meaning you're taking a mild risk ordering it. However, the Shenzhen, China-based company says its products are in over 25,000 schools, and it has done a bunch of successful Kickstarter campaigns, including the mBot robot building kit (above), Codeybot code-teaching robot and Airblock drone-cum-hovercraft, which garnered $830,000 by itself.

Question: Kidney removed after cancer misdiagnosis

Represent this text to find a news title for it

A former master warrant officer with the Canadian Armed Forces says she developed PTSD and had to leave the military after having her kidney removed as a result of being wrongly diagnosed with cancer.
She said she was told at the time that the mistake was no one’s fault and that “medicine is not an exact science.”
Sharon Marson, who now lives in New Brunswick, attempted to sue the now-retired Ottawa urologist who diagnosed and treated her, and The Ottawa Hospital. Affidavits were filed and both sides were cross examined in them, but her lawsuit alleging medical negligence was dismissed in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice earlier this year because she waited too long to pursue it.
Marson’s surgery was in August 2000. For most lawsuits, the claim must be issued within two years. Marson pursued the lawsuit in 2015.
She said a medical report commissioned by Veterans Affairs Canada concluded in 2014 that “I have been the victim of medical malpractice.” Until then, she said, she was not aware there had been malpractice.
The case began when Marson underwent a routine medical exam in early 2000 as a condition of her service in the armed forces. Tests done after the exam found a “shadow” on her right kidney and she was referred to urologist Dr. Carl Leahy.
He ordered a series of tests. Based on those, he concluded she had cancer in the right kidney and recommended that the kidney and her ureter be surgically removed, to which she agreed.
In August 2000, during a post-op consultation, Leahy told her the mass that had been diagnosed as cancer was, in fact, benign and that she had a kidney infection and scarring, not cancer.
“Following my nephrectomy, I was told that the pathology report, much to Dr. Leahy’s surprise, was not cancer. I had been misdiagnosed. I had had a kidney infection and scar tissue, for which I had had not one symptom,” she said in a court document.
According to court documents, Marson stated that after surgery she had been told by the doctor that tests had produced a “false positive result” for cancer and that “tests can be wrong, but this is not the result of any error of the technicians operating the lab equipment or conducting the tests but that this was the nature of the tests that were conducted.”
He added, “Medicine is not an exact science.”
At the time, she said, several people encouraged her to launch a lawsuit, but she declined.
It was only when she was applying for a disability pension, she said, that she read the entire medical file and was struck by an “inconsistency” between what the doctor told her and her husband after the surgery and what the records said.
At the heart of her concern was a cytopathology test conducted prior to surgery, which was negative for cancer. Cytopathology testing examines cells from various sites in the body and is sometimes used for cancer screening. Marson argued that further testing should have been done, in light of that result, before her kidney was removed.
“He never explained to me that he should have conducted further tests and that my condition may have been cured alternatively and he maintained that the kidney and ureter required removal in order to save my life.”
In court testimony, Leahy said all the test results had been disclosed to Marson prior to the surgery. He also said that a negative cytopathology report did not rule out cancer and was not significant to his diagnosis.
Marson, meanwhile, who had been working as a supply technician, said she left the armed forces as a result of the surgery and later suffered from depression and PTSD.
When she underwent a medical exam as part of her release from the military later in 2000, she talked about the misdiagnoses as part of her reason.
“I now know that, at all material times, I have suffered from and continue to suffer from post traumatic stress disorder and severe depression as a result of the treatment.” It was only after receiving treatment for them that she was capable of commencing legal action, she said, which is why she waited more than 15 years after the surgery to commence legal proceedings.
“I was unable to make important decisions at that time due to my depressed state.”
Both Marson and the lawyer representing Leahy declined to comment. The Ottawa Hospital released this statement: “The Court was clear in its decision in this case. The hospital cannot speak on behalf of other parties.”

Question: U.S. bans weapons export to South Sudan

February 2, 2018 (JUBA) - In response to the repeated violations of a cessation of hostilities reached last December, U.S. administration has finally established a weapons embargo on South Sudan pointing to continued violence and brutality against civilians and humanitarian worker.

"The Department of State today announces that it is implementing restrictions on the export of defence articles and defence services into South Sudan," said adding that "the United States is appalled by the continuing violence in South Sudan that has created one of Africa’s worst humanitarian crises".
The unilateral measure comes after several attempts by Washington to impose the weapons embargo but Moscow voiced its opposition to the move. Also, it is seen as emblematic because Juba imports its weapons from China, Ukraine and other eastern Europe countries.
"Specifically, the Department of State will amend the International Traffic in Arms Regulations to update the defence trade policy toward South Sudan by application of a policy of denial, with limited exceptions, on the export of defence articles and defence services to South Sudan, including all parties involved in the conflict," further said a statement released on Friday.
The South Sudanese warring parties signed a humanitarian truce to end violence and particularly allow aid workers to reach civilians in the conflict-affected areas across the country. Washington through the Troika was actively involved in the IGAD-brokered agreement.
However, President Festus Mogae last month last month told the IGAD council of ministers that aid workers continue to face difficulties to reach civilians despite a presidential decree ordering to facilitate the humanitarian access.
Also, speaking before the UN Security Council on 26 January deputy U.N. humanitarian chief Ursula Mueller warned that 1.5 million South Sudanese are on the brink of famine and 20,000 are already in famine conditions.
He further said over 5 million South Sudanese nearly half its population of 12 million are believed to be severely food insecure.
Some 2.4 million South Sudanese have fled to neighbouring countries and 1.9 million are displaced in the country since the start of the armed conflict in 2013.
The State Department said it is seeking support for a UN Security Council embargo on all arms flows into South Sudan and we called on all UNSC members to join Washington in supporting this action.
"The message must be clear – the United States, the region, and the international community will not stand idly by as innocent South Sudanese civilians are murdered. We will continue to take actions against those who foment violence and obstruct the peace process," further stressed the State Department.
Amnesty International issued a statement supporting the "long-overdue" weapons embargo by the American administration and called on the international community to follow the move.
“This long-overdue announcement by the Trump administration must spur the UN Security Council to take greater action to prevent further killings of civilians and other gross human rights violations in South Sudan, by imposing a comprehensive arms embargo to cut off the flow of weapons to the country," said the group.

Sam Saxton went most of the afternoon without checking his phone.
When the 2019 three-star quarterback from St. Michael's Catholic Academy in Austin, Texas, did glance at Twitter, he noticed a group of new followers, including Michigan State coaches.
Saxton received a message from Sheldon White, Michigan State's executive director of player personnel and recruiting, and shortly later was on the phone with quarterbacks coach Brad Salem.
The initial contact between Saxton and the program came on June 24, the same day Oak Park 2019 four-star quarterback Dwan Mathis flipped his commitment from Michigan State to Ohio State. The Spartans are now in the market for a new quarterback and Saxton is one they're looking at.
"I think they're very interested in me," said Saxton, who has not received a scholarship offer from the Spartans. "They think I have all the ability and components that can make a great Michigan State quarterback."
Four-star QB Dwan Mathis flips commitment from Michigan State to Ohio State
Michigan State typically takes one quarterback in each class and 2014 was the last cycle it didn't sign anyone at the position. That was the result of a late decommitment from three-star Ohio prospect Chris Durkin, who ultimately signed with Virginia Tech. According to 247Sports, Michigan State has only offered a trio of 2019 quarterbacks and all three are committed elsewhere. Mathis' flip to Ohio State leaves the Spartans reevaluating prospects in the class.
"I think this staff, I've never known them to reach, so if they can't find a kid that fits the mold, I don't think that they'll just take one just to take one," said Allen Trieu, Midwest recruiting analyst for 247Sports. "But I think you'd like to have a quarterback in every class. I think the plan is to go through and evaluate and see if they can find one that fits with them that also likes them in turn. It looks like they're going through that process. I don't think they're going rush it."
Michigan State football's 2019 class now at 15 commits, ranked No. 19 in nation
Trieu said Saxton appears to be one of the most-likely new quarterback targets for the Spartans moving forward but the process could be slowed down by the recruiting calendar. The NCAA's current dead period, which prohibits coaches from having face-to-face contact with recruits, started on June 25 and lasts through July 24.
Michigan State coaches indicated they want to sign a quarterback in 2019, Saxton said, and he's excited about the interest from the Spartans but also trying to remain patient. At 6-foot-5 and 195 pounds, he's listed as the No. 34 pro-style quarterback and No. 1,063 player overall in the 2019 class, according to 247Sports Composite rankings.
Saxton, who spent his freshman and sophomore seasons at Westlake High School in Austin, said he threw for 2,151 yards, 30 touchdowns and three interceptions last season while playing for Austin High School before transferring to St. Michael's in the winter. He has 14 offers, including Southern Miss, New Mexico and New Mexico State, and is hoping to receive one from Michigan State.
"If I was offered a scholarship from Michigan State, I would have a serious talk with my family and we'd go over the pros and cons and at the end of that we'd make a decision," Saxton said. "If they offered me, I would schedule an official visit. ... I would get up there as soon as possible."
Latest recruiting surge 'fairly unprecedented' for Michigan State
Although Saxton said Michigan State has always been his favorite Big Ten program, he has strong ties close to home as a Texas legacy. His grandfather, James Saxton, was a standout running back for the Longhorns who finished third in the voting for the Heisman Trophy in 1961 and is a member of the College Football Hall of Fame. His father, Jimmy Saxton, played multiple positions for Texas from 1990-93.
"Texas is Texas," Saxton said, "but I want to go make my own path and do my own thing."

CLASS OF 2019 RANKINGS: Rivals250 | State | Position | Team
I traveled all over the state of North Carolina last week, stopping at schools to check in with big-time prospects and find some new ones. I learned a lot about the recruitment of some of the state’s biggest prospects and discovered there is plenty to come from the up-and-coming stars in the Tar Heel State. Here are three things I learned about the current recruiting landscape along with some of the recruiting updates on high profile prospects throughout the state.

NC State poised for a big run
The Wolfpack’s 2018 recruiting class was their best since 2014 and they are looking use last year’s on-field success to propel them to an even better result in 2019. NC State currently has the No. 43-ranked recruiting class in the Rivals.com Team Recruiting Rankings but there are a number of players that could end up committing to the Wolfpack, any one of which could start a domino effect. Linebacker Drake Thomas is set to announce his commitment this Friday, June 1 and all signs point to him joining his brother in Raleigh. Rivals250 defensive lineman Savion Jackson has NC State at the top of his list or very close to it. The same goes for Rivals250 defensive lineman Joshua Harris.
NC State is a major player for Rivals250 running back Zonovan Knight, who recently decommitted from Duke. The Wolfpack are in line for an official visit from defensive back Shyheim Battle and have a very good shot at landing a commitment from J.R. Walker once he sets a decision date.
Keep an eye on defensive back Khalid Martin and defensive lineman Terrell Dawkins. Both really like N.C. State and feel like they could fit in with the program very well. Another player to watch for is defensive back Isaiah Kemp. The current Duke commit is teammates with current NC State commit Chris Toudle and the Wolfpack will surely be working to flip Kemp all the way up to Signing Day.
Tar Heels down but not out
Despite less than ideal on-field results, North Carolina has had top 30 recruiting classes every year since 2013 and a top 25 recruiting class three times in that same span. The common narrative is that the Tar Heels are struggling on the field and on the recruiting trail following an injury decimated 3-9 season. Yes, North Carolina is outside the top 50 in the team recruiting rankings, but the program should bounce back. The Tar Heels are in the midst of a tough battles with NC State for Rivals250 defensive linemen Savion Jackson and Joshua Harris. Four-star defensive linemen C.J. Clark is very high on North Carolina, but Georgia could be tough to beat there. Recent Duke decommit Donavon Greene really likes North Carolina and listed them as one of his top contenders. Current Duke commit Tony Davis mentioned that North Carolina is pushing for him to get back on campus and defensive back Anthony Harris holds the Tar Heels in high regard.
North Carolina is also in great position for a couple of the state’s best underclassmen. Defensive back Cameron Roseman-Sinclair, a 2020 prospect, has great relationships in Chapel Hill and 2020 wide receiver Ray Grier called North Carolina his “dream school.”

Question: Burger-Flipping Robot Is Back And Now ‘Moves Like A Ninja’

PASADENA, CA (CBS Local) – Flippy, the burger-flipping robot cook, has returned to a California fast food chain. The new and improved Flippy is looking to erase its rocky March debut, when it got a pink slip after just one day on the job.
Miso Robotics sold burger chain CaliBurger on the idea of replacing its kitchen staff with the patty-flipping robots in 2017. “We really think of ourselves as a technology company that happens to sell cheeseburgers,” CaliBurger founder John Miller said at the time.
However, Flippy’s 2018 debut didn’t go as planned. The automated grill operator couldn’t keep up with the demand customers at the Pasadena restaurant had for a robot-cooked burger. Flippy was shut down on March 9 after its first day when it couldn’t flip enough patties or properly put them on the serving trays.
“We got a little ahead of ourselves,” Miso Robotics CEO David Zito told USA Today, admitting they “were overwhelmed by the response.”
Flippy the robot's burgers may be better than yours https://t.co/xEtdqfgPP4 pic.twitter.com/B4zdDUVxOm — USA TODAY Tech (@usatodaytech) May 25, 2018
After two months on the shelf, Flippy’s creators say the robot is ready for the kitchen again. It’s already handling the chain’s lunch shift, cooking burgers for three hours a day, seven days a week.
“Now he moves like a ninja and is more reliable,” Zito added.
CaliBurger says that it still plans to have the upgraded Flippy robots in 50 of its locations by 2019. Each robot reportedly costs between $60,000 and $100,000.
The robotics company insisted that their robot is not meant to put humans out of work and said humans are still needed to help Flippy operate in the kitchen. “Our mission is to improve working conditions of chefs and line cooks with assistants, not replace them,” Zito said via CBS News.

Question: Forget Tough Passwords: New Guidelines Make It Simple

This news article should be represented to find a fitting news title.

Here's what we've been told about passwords:
Make them complicated.
Use numbers, question marks and hash marks.
Change them regularly.
Use different passwords for each app and website.
Of course, these guidelines often leave users frustrated and struggling to remember them all.
Now, the National Institute of Standards and Technology is about the make all of our lives much easier. The organization recently revised its guidelines on creating passwords, and the new advice sharply diverges from previous rules.
"The traditional guidance is actually producing passwords that are easy for bad guys and hard for legitimate users," says Paul Grassi, senior standards and technology adviser at NIST, who led the new revision of guidelines.
The organization suggests keeping passwords simple, long and memorable. Phrases, lowercase letters and typical English words work well, Grassi tells NPR's Audie Cornish. Experts no longer suggest special characters and a mixture of lower and uppercase letters. And passwords never need to expire.
"We focus on the cognitive side of this, which is what tools can users use to remember these things?" Grassi says. "So if you can picture it in your head, and no one else could, that's a good password."
While these rules may seem suspiciously easy, Grassi says these guidelines help users create longer passwords that are harder for hackers to break. And he says the computer security industry in both the public and private sectors has received these new rules positively.
"It works because we are creating longer passwords that cryptographically are harder to break than the shorter ones, even with all those special character requirements," Grassi says. "We are really bad at random passwords, so the longer the better."
Previously, security experts recommended the use of password manager apps to ensure users' accounts were protected. Grassi says these apps are useful because they completely randomize the password, but he says they aren't necessary to maintain security.
Grassi stands by these new guidelines because he says previous tips for passwords impacted users negatively and did not do much to boost security. When users change their passwords every 90 days, they often aren't dramatically changing the password, Grassi says.
"I'm pretty sure you're not changing your entire password; you're shifting one character," he says. "Everyone does that, and the bad guys know that."

Question: Peter O’Mahony named captain for Maori All Blacks clash

Peter O’Mahony will captain the British & Irish Lions against the Maori All Blacks at Rotorua International Stadium on Saturday. The Munster captain will follow tour skipper follows Sam Warburton, Ken Owens and Alun Wyn Jones in leading the tourists one week out from the first test.
The selection retains the core of the side that accounted for the previously unbeaten Crusaders last Saturday, as will be the case again when facing New Zealand next Saturday.
All told, 11 of the side which started against the Crusaders will do so against the Maoris, including all bar one of the pack, as Maro Itoje partners George Kruis in the absence of the rested aforementioned Wyn Jones.
Similarly, having backed up last Tuesday in playing twice within four days, CJ Stander and Owen Farrell are also rested completely, as Johnny Sexton is re-united with Conor Murray at halfback, while in the absence of the departing Stuart Hogg, Leigh Halpfenny is restore at full-back and Anthony Watson starts on the wing.
This means that O’Mahony and Sean O’Brien flank Toby Faletau in the back-row, with Warburton on the bench, while Tadhg Furlong starts at tight-head. Jack McGrath and Iain Henderson are on the bench.
“We were obviously disappointed with the loss against the Highlanders and realise that we need to improve in several areas, including our discipline, but we feel that overall we are building well towards the Test matches,” said Warren Gatland.
“Every game is a big challenge, which is what we wanted, and this is an experienced Lions team with eight of the starting 15 involved in the last Test in Australia in 2013.”
Gatland added: “Peter is a proven captain with Munster. He never takes a backward step and we believe that those leadership qualities will serve us well on Saturday against a quality and determined Maori All Blacks team.”
LIONS: Leigh Halfpenny; Anthony Watson, Jonathan Davies, Ben Te’o, George North; Johnny Sexton, Conor Murray; Mako Vunipola, Jamie George, Tadhg Furlong; Maro Itoje, George Kruis; Peter O’Mahony (capt), Sean O’Brien, Taulupe Faletau.
Replacements: Ken Owens, Jack McGrath, Kyle Sinckler, Iain Henderson, Sam Warburton, Greig Laidlaw, Owen Farrell, Elliot Daly

The British and Irish Lions' tour of New Zealand is on the precipice of disaster after news that premier fly-half Owen Farrell is a major doubt for the first test after suffering a quadriceps strain. The England half-back had been named on the bench for the clash with the Maori All Blacks, the last opportunity for the first choice 23 to impress before the series kicks off in Auckland on 24 June, but has been withdrawn just hours after the team was confirmed.
Farrell had started just one of the Lions' opening four matches, playing 124 minutes on tour prior to picking up the injury. He was largely expected to start at number 10 against the world champions at Eden Park ahead of Ireland's Johnny Sexton, however the match against the Maori would have given coach Warren Gatland an opportunity to observe a possible 10-12 partnership between the pair. Wales' Dan Biggar comes in for Farrell on the bench where captain Sam Warburton is also included.
The out-of-form Sexton starts at the Rotorua International Stadium in tandem with fellow countryman Conor Murray at scrum half while Pete O'Mahony has been named as captain for a game which will represent the clearest indicator yet as to the Lions' chances of staging a first series win over the Kiwis since 1971.
Medical staff have classed the injury as a grade one strain, which would normally require 10 days of recovery before a full return to competition. Farrell therefore faces a race against time to be fit for the first test in nine days time and the news is the latest setback on what has been a nightmare tour for the Lions.
British and Irish Lions fixtures [8:35am BST kick-off time unless otherwise stated] Saturday 17 June – New Zealand Maori – International Stadium, Rotorua Tuesday 20 June – Chiefs– Waikato Stadium, Hamilton Saturday 24 June – New Zealand– First Test, Eden Park, Auckland Tuesday 27 June – Hurricanes – Westpac Stadium, Wellington Saturday 1 July – New Zealand – Second Test, Westpac Stadium, Wellington Saturday 8 July – New Zealand – Third Test, Eden Park, Auckland
Number eight Billy Vunipola pulled out of the squad prior to travelling to New Zealand due to a shoulder injury, while Six Nations player of the tournament Stuart Hogg was ruled out this week with a cheek injury. Though Farrell's future on the tour is not in any immediate doubt, he faces missing what could be one of the defining games of his rugby career.
On the field, the Lions' fortunes have been similarly torturous having lost two of their four warm-up games. Victory over the New Zealand Provincial Barbarians was followed by defeat to the Super 12 side the Blues, before a narrow win against the Crusaders. The latest mid-week game saw them defeated 23-22 by the Highlanders in Dunedin, raising questions over whether they can compete with Steve Hansen's star-studded All Blacks across three games.

Question: The Blue Grass Man in September

Represent the article to find a fitting news title:

After well over 15 years of research, fact-checking, and writing, the publication date for the long-awaited Bill Monroe biography by Tom Ewing is now known – September 30, 2018.
Ewing was a Blue Grass Boy, playing guitar and singing the lead part during the last 10 years of Monroe’s life; Monroe passed away in September 1996.
For Bill Monroe: The Life and Music of the Blue Grass Man, Ewing has drawn “on hundreds of interviews, his personal relationship with Monroe, and an immense personal archive of materials to separate the truth from longstanding myth. Ewing tells the story of the Monroe family’s musical household and Bill’s early career in the Monroe Brothers duo. He brings to life Monroe’s 1940s heyday with the Classic Bluegrass Band, the renewed fervor for his music sparked by the folk revival of the 1960s, and his declining fortunes in the years that followed. Throughout, Ewing deftly captures Monroe’s relationships and the personalities of an ever-shifting roster of band members, while shedding light on his business dealings and his pioneering work with Bean Blossom and other music festivals.”
The book is being published by the University of Illinois Press – formally established in 1918 – as part of their on-going, award-winning Music in American Life series, begun by the late Dr Judith McCulloh with the publication in 1972 of Archie Green’s Only a Miner: Studies in Recorded Coal-Mining Songs.
Currently, Ewing is “knee deep in creating an index for the book,” no mean feat given the book’s 656 pages.
One reader, Neil V. Rosenberg said of Bill Monroe: The Life and Music of the Blue Grass Man ….
“No one knows the literature about and by Bill Monroe better than this author. He stitches what other readers have seen as fragments into the first deep and coherent narrative of Monroe’s early years. They are sewn into a fabric of intense research into the time, place, and people in Monroe’s life.”
As a student of Bill Monroe, I expect that Ewing will with this tome give me, for one, “a deeper understanding of Monroe’s towering achievements and timeless music.”
