He\'s scheduled to pitch again in spring training Wednesday.\nThe Diamondbacks don\'t want to push him to be ready for their first game March 29 at home against Colorado.

"He won 17 games last year. He was our staff ace."\nLovullo said he wasn\'t ready to say who would start against the Rockies. The likely candidate is Robbie Ray, who went 15-5 with a 2.89 ERA last year.\n"There\'s a strategy," Lovullo said. "We don\'t just look at opening day.

Ever since being selected with the second overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft, Los Angeles Lakers point guard Lonzo Ball has drawn an endless amount of comparisons to president of basketball operations Magic Johnson for their similar style of play and shared position.
Both Ball and Johnson additionally enjoyed successful collegiate careers leading up to their selections and represented a new, exciting era of Lakers basketball. Of course, Johnson holds an edge there as he led Michigan State to the NCAA title.
One key difference between the two, with the Lakers, however, is that Johnson was fortunate enough to inherit a talented team with many veterans already in place, including Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Jamaal Wilkes, to name a few.
That wasn’t the case for Ball, who was thrust into a leadership role on one of the youngest teams in the league. Furthermore, the Lakers were coming off a historically bad season.
Johnson pointed out that having a veteran point guard in Norm Nixon by his side was beneficial for his rookie season, and opines that the lack of an experienced point guard on the current Lakers roster has made Ball’s transition to the NBA much more difficult, via Spectrum SportsNet:
“I’ll tell you what I had that he doesn’t have. I had Norm Nixon. Because Norm played the point guard position, he was able to take me aside before every game, in practice, and give me really good nuggets on how I should approach this guy, how I should play him, what he’s going to do to me, and on and on and on. We don’t have a veteran guy, in terms of a point guard, that can help Lonzo along the way and teach him the ropes. So he’s thrown in and he has to learn game by game, and that’s hard for a rookie at the point guard position. Also, I wasn’t a hometown guy. The pressure of being from L.A., I think he’s handled that well. Also, I didn’t have a shoe, Michael Jordan didn’t have a shoe, Larry Bird didn’t have a shoe as a rookie. He’s really balancing a lot of different things. I just hope that he gets his rest. He understands that basketball must to be first.”
That being said, Johnson also revealed future plans to begin watching game film with Ball, and intends to take up a mentorship role with him as well. Johnson said the relationship will extend beyond matters on the court, should Ball so please.
While Ball has noticeably struggled with his shot in the early going, he has done an excellent job at creating looks for his teammates. That was most recently evident on Thursday night, when the 20-year-old found a wide-open Brandon Ingram for a game-winning 3-pointer against the Philadelphia 76ers.
Ball recently fought with tightness in both calves but has still managed to cash in a solid performances in back-to-back road wins.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — DeMarcus Cousins will spend the rest of the 2016-17 NBA season walking on eggshells.
Having already served a league-mandated suspension for accruing 16 technical fouls, Cousins faces subsequent one-game bans for every two additional violations. Subduing emotion has always been difficult for the All-Star big man, but now the penalty for failure is more severe than ever.
Every incident that could produce a shout, scowl or diatribe against officials suddenly comes at a steeper price. Errant hands to the face of Donatas Motiejunas get extra scrutiny, for example. Reactions to low blows from Buddy Hield, obvious no-calls and every other potential outburst could result in another team-crippling suspension.
And you'd better believe it's weighing on Cousins.
"I don't know how to be myself anymore," he said softly from his locker stall at the Golden 1 Center on Friday night.
The Kings had just engineered a 22-point comeback to steal a win from the visiting Atlanta Hawks, but more importantly, it was Cousins' first night back from his initial suspension. He admitted the threat of future discipline affected his performance. Hence the miniature existential emergency.
"It's well known I'm a very emotional player," Cousins later explained to Bleacher Report. "I play with a lot of passion, a lot of emotion. I know that's what makes me the player that I am. When I'm kind of crucified for how I play, and they want change, it's hard for me to be the same type of player...It's just me trying to find the balance. I'm trying to make the adjustment, I'm trying to make the change for the better."
Can he sustain his productivity while snuffing out the fire that led to his suspension? And can he do it as the pressure of the season's stretch run intensifies?

Cousins understands the stakes. He knows his team is within sniffing distance of the franchise's first playoff berth since 2007. And he knows one game lost to suspension here or there could be the difference between reaching what he's called his only goal and falling short again.
"The guy's trying so hard," head coach Dave Joerger said. "He's an emotional player, so it's like he's playing with one hand behind his back if he can't ever say anything. He doesn't want to hurt the team. He doesn't want to get another technical."
Cousins survived the comeback win against Atlanta without incurring tech No. 17, but it was no easy thing. He was sluggish, visibly frustrated and unable to hide the strain of, well...restraint. Is his effectiveness divisible from his emotion?
"I'm dealing with my own demons right now," he said. "I've got to focus on what's going on at the moment, and I did a terrible job of that."
Two nights later, Cousins was assessed a first-quarter technical foul for an errant swing of the arm that caught New Orleans Pelicans forward Motiejunas in the face. In order to compose himself, Cousins actually left the floor and went to the locker room.

"It was kind of hard for me with that one because of the situation that had just occurred where I come back and the slightest thing and I'm back (facing suspension)," Cousins said. "It's hard, but I had to gather myself, refocus and get back to the main objective which is winning the game. I've got to walk the straight and narrow. It's all I can do."
Sacramento won that game as well, getting 28 points, 14 rebounds and seven assists from its best player—despite an ejection-triggering groin shot from Pelicans guard Hield. It was as if the basketball gods were testing Boogie. To his credit, he passed. Plenty of players with less volatile reputations would have snapped in that situation.
But so many more games lie ahead. So many more trials have yet to be undertaken. And, again, Cousins' margin for error is basically nil.
How he handles the challenge he's helped create for himself (despite protestations about unfair treatment from officials, he is partly responsible for his situation) will either signal the kind of growth so many have been waiting to see or reaffirm the doubts that have dogged him for years.
Thearon W. Henderson/Getty Images
He'll have help.
"I lean on all my teammates, not just Matt (Barnes). But he is the voice of our team. Everybody leans on Matt when times get hard because he's been through it all, seen it all on all levels."
Barnes, like Cousins, is no stranger to image problems.
"He's got a tough rap—the reputation he's earned," Barnes told ESPN-Tencent's Yuan Fang. "Whether it's good or bad. We both have bad and that took me my whole career to change mine and it hasn't worked. He just has to be able to adjust within his reputation and still be himself. He has to keeps his head."
Barnes has been a calming figure all season, which may seem odd given his volatile reputation. He commands respect like no on else on the roster, and you can see it in the locker room and on the floor. When the Kings found life in the second half against Atlanta, they did so after Barnes gathered his teammates together at the foul line before the third quarter.
When he motioned for a huddle, everyone—Cousins included—hustled over, leaned in close and listened to the veteran as he clapped his hands and exhorted them to perform.
"I thought Matt did a good job of really talking to us the whole game," Darren Collison said. "He was the leader when things weren't going well."
This is about more than Cousins' personal journey, though. The Kings have professed commitment to their big man, with general manager Vlade Divac saying Cousins won't be traded. A contract extension worth upwards of $200 million will likely come by July.
Cousins could validate that faith by adjusting his behavior and upping his level of play. Or he could falter and, in doing so, force the Kings to reconsider their committed stance. Worse still, he might come up short and get that max extension anyway, which would effectively consign Sacramento to another half-decade of maddening sub-mediocrity.
We've seen a lot from DeMarcus Cousins over the last six years.
He's got six weeks to show us something more.

Joerger is loath to play Willie Cauley-Stein with Cousins, which is probably frustrating for fans who'd like to see athleticism like this alongside the proven productivity of an All-Star big man:

But Sacramento's defense has been untenably bad in the 119 minutes the duo has played together, and it's only gotten worse as the season has worn on. In 50 minutes since Jan. 1, the Kings have allowed 118.1 points per 100 possessions with Cousins and Cauley-Stein on the court.
That's not to say Cauley-Stein's without his uses. Lately, his energy and rim-rolling prowess have charged up the Kings' scrappy second unit. He put up 14 points, five rebounds and four assists in a Feb. 8 win over the Boston Celtics.
"He's getting to balls that are outside of his area, and I think he's a lot more comfortable with our defensive schemes and also our offensive schemes where he can find seams to get to the rim."
In limited minutes as part of a unit with Anthony Tolliver, Matt Barnes, Ben McLemore and either Darren Collison or Ty Lawson, Cauley-Stein has solidified himself as a rotation player with upside. That's good timing by him, as Cousins figures to miss a few games before season's end, which will free up minutes in the middle.
Return of the Mac
Does it count as a return if Ben McLemore's viability as an NBA player was never really certain in the first place?
Rather than worry about the details, check this out: McLemore is tearing it up since regaining a role after six consecutive DNPs.
In February, he's averaging 13.3 points per game and hitting 50 percent of his threes. His 22 points and 6-of-10 effort from long distance were vital in Friday's win over Atlanta.
"He's always been a good shooter to me, it was just a matter of time for him to really turn the corner," Darren Collison said. "One thing about Ben, even when he wasn't playing, he was always in the gym. First one in the gym, last one to leave."
Cousins, as you'd expect, was more forthright: "Ben is like a little brother to me. It's bigger than basketball, just to see him remain positive, remain professional through the bulls--t and things not going his way ... I think he's hitting his stride. I think that good karma's coming around for him now."
Digging Holes and Microcosms
It's fitting the Kings are scrambling to make up ground in the West after an uninspiring first half of the season (or 50-plus games, as the case may be). Because that seems to be the way they operate.
Here's proof:
Kings False Starts Quarter Offensive Rating Defensive Rating Net Rating First 100.7 111.9 -11.3 Second 103.5 111.4 -7.9 Third 108.8 104.9 +3.9 Fourth 108.9 105.9 +3.0 NBA.com
On the one hand, failing to show up for games before halftime is a concern. But, on the other, the Kings have been forced to develop resiliency.
"Our fight and our heart is undeniable," Cousins said. "I believe everybody here can agree with me on that. That being said, we can't keep putting ourselves in that position. We gotta make these games easier for ourselves."
Not getting blasted in every first quarter (the Kings lost all three opening periods in their three-game winning streak) would be a good start.

Question: Germany, Russia, Ukraine, France discuss Ukraine peace deal

Represent the article to find a fitting news title!

BERLIN — The German government says the leaders of Germany, Russia, Ukraine and France have renewed their commitment to implementing a faltering peace deal for eastern Ukraine.
Chancellor Angela Merkel's office said the German leader spoke by phone Monday night with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko and French President Francois Hollande.
A 2015 peace deal brokered by France and Germany has helped reduce the scale of fighting, but violence has continued and attempts at a political settlement have failed.
The German statement early Tuesday said the four leaders stressed their commitment to implementing the "security and political aspects of the deal," underlined the importance of respecting a cease-fire and urged progress on the exchange of prisoners.

MOSCOW, October 6 (Sputnik) — US Special Representative for Ukraine Negotiations Kurt Volker believes that the Minsk agreements on the de-escalation of the Ukrainian crisis are not efficient.
Volker told Gazeta.Ru news outlet that the Minsk accords had failed to put an end to armed clashes in Donbass, where people still die every week. The parties have not made any sufficient progress in enforcing the ceasefire and making concrete political steps, including holding elections in the region, Washington’s representative said.
Volker also said in the interview that Washington was hopeful that US-Russia consultations would help overcome the stall, implement the Minsk accords and halt the conflict, the media reported.
He also praised Ukraine extending the law on special status of Donbass, saying that it shows that Kiev is taking steps to achieve peace in the region, Volker said as the Ukrainian parliament approved extension of the region’s special status by a year, proposed by President Petro Poroshenko. The parliament also approved the bill on reintegration of the region.
Special status extension shows #Ukraine 🇺🇦 taking tough steps for peace. Hope #Russia 🇷🇺now acts to make peace — time to end conflict. — Kurt Volker (@SpecRepUkraine) 6 октября 2017 г.
In 2014, within the framework of the Minsk peace accords, Ukraine pledged to provide certain areas of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions with a special status. The law was adopted, but not enforced. According to the law, certain areas of Donbass currently uncontrolled by Kiev would only get special status after local elections held under Ukrainian legislation and under control of international observers. Such elections were not held, therefore the special status did not come into effect. The law, adopted for a three-year period, was due to expire on October 18.
On Thursday, Volker confirmed that he would meet Russian presidential aide Vladislav Surkov in Belgrade on October 7 to discuss “how to catalyze Minsk implementation and restore Ukraine’s territorial integrity.”
Kiev launched a military operation in the east of Ukraine in 2014, after local residents refused to recognize the new government that came to power in what they considered a coup. Despite the 2015 ceasefire deal signed between the conflicting parties in Minsk and brokered by the leaders of Russia, France, Germany and Ukraine, the so-called Normandy Format, the situation in the region remains tense.
Kiev has been reluctant to implement a number of Minsk deal provisions. Russia has repeatedly said that it is not a party to Ukraine’s internal conflict and called on the West to influence Kiev in order to ensure Minsk agreements’ implementation.

The UW-Eau Claire senior hopes to follow with after-dinner drinks at The Pickle
Two seniors, Brad Johnson and Hannah Anderson, who met in an astrology course at UW-Eau Claire last year, are celebrating Valentine’s Day in a down-to-earth fashion.
This is the couple’s first date after making their relationship Facebook official, also the first Johnson will have planned.
Johnson took a break from his meticulous date-organizing and divulged the plan to his close friends on Monday afternoon. “Here’s what I’m thinking, you guys,” Johnson said while scrolling through the document.
According to the schedule, Johnson reserved a table for two at Milwaukee Burger for 7 p.m..
“I know when I arrive wearing flannel and present the table, pre-set with a basket of yummy bread and two bottles of Pabst Blue Ribbon, she’s going to lose her mind,” Johnson said.
Following the dinner, the couple will make their way to The Pickle for after dinner drinks and then to “Shenans” for a first dance.
Anderson said she is filled with anticipation for this evening. While she has organized every other date thus far, and is excited to see what’s to come of Johnson’s initiative.
The couple met their sophomore year and were constantly bumping into one another in the time following, Anderson said. Soon after, they became fast friends, moving from hanging out to tagging each other in memes to casually seeing each other (“We just didn’t want a big, huge thing,” Johnson said).
Friends had reportedly begun urging them to finally start dating when it became clear the couple were each other’s go-to for celebrity shots and finding the next address.
“You know, we had our first kiss at Putnam Rock, a romantic afternoon hike at Mount Simon … we’ve even taken selfies on every bridge in Eau Claire,” Anderson said. “We’ve pretty much hit every relationship milestone except Valentine’s Day.”

Question: EU launches investigation into Facebook and Cambridge Analytica

NurPhoto/Getty
Millions of US voters had their Facebook data exploited by consultants working for Donald Trump's presidential campaign, according to news reports this weekend. But the fallout from the revelations extends far and wide beyond US borders.
The EU will investigate whether the privacy rights of European citizens have been violated by social media companies that may have shared their data illegally, said President of the European Parliament Antonio Tajani on Monday.
"Allegations of misuse of Facebook user data is an unacceptable violation of our citizens' privacy rights," said Tajani on Twitter.
Tajani's comments follow three days of news reports about the activities of Cambridge Analytica, a UK-based company best known for working on President Trump's 2016 election campaign. The company took advantage of data harvested from Facebook accounts in order to build psychological profiles of voters that they could then target with ads, according to reports by The New York Times and Guardian.
According to former Cambridge Analytica employee-turned-whistleblower Chris Wylie, a University of Cambridge researcher named Aleksandr Kogan harvested the data through a personality quiz developed by his own company General Science Research (GSR), Facebook said. GSR extracted data about Facebook users who took part in the quiz -- as well as data about their friends -- and passed it on to Cambridge Analytica. GSR paid around 270,000 people to take the quiz, but in doing so managed to access the profile information of over 50 million Facebook users, the Times reported.
Facebook changed the rules about app developers being able to access the data belonging to users' friends in 2015. Prior to this, developers would have been able to harvest this data legitimately, meaning that profile information belonging to EU citizens could have been scooped up along with data belonging to their US Facebook friends.
The EU has much stricter privacy and data protection laws than the US, and they are about to get even stricter with the introduction of the Europe-wide General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) this May. European privacy laws apply to all companies operating within Europe, no matter where they are based, giving US social media companies a strict set of rules to abide by. Even under current laws, misuse of citizen data can result in massive fines for the companies responsible.
Along with the European Parliament, EU Justice Commissioner Věra Jourová also said she would be seeking to discuss the reports with Facebook when she visits the US government this week.
"Horrifying, if confirmed," she said about the reports in a tweet. "I expect the companies to take more responsibility when handling our personal data."
Meanwhile, in the UK...
In the UK, Cambridge Analytica is already the subject of two ongoing investigations by authorities -- one by the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the country's data regulator, and another by the Electoral Commissioner, which is concerned about the role the company may have played in the 2016 Brexit campaign.
"A full understanding of the facts, data flows and data uses is imperative for my ongoing investigation," said Information Commissioner Elizabeth Denham in a statement on Monday. "This includes any new information, statements or evidence that have come to light in recent days.
Cambridge Analytica has also already been questioned as part of a wider Parliamentary investigation into fake news in the UK. The company's CEO, Alexander Nix, told members of Parliament last month that Cambridge Analytica had not received any data from GSR.
"From the evidence that has been published by The Guardian and The Observer this weekend, it seems clear that he has deliberately misled the Committee and Parliament by giving false statements," said Committee Chair Damian Collins in a statement on Sunday. He will contact Nix this week asking him to explain his previous comments and answer further questions, he said.
Collins also accused Facebook both of deliberately avoiding answering questions about Cambridge Analytica and of understating the risk of data being taken and used without users' understanding and consent. Facebook previously provided evidence to the committee at a session in Washington DC in February, but Collins now wants CEO Mark Zuckerberg or another senior executive to answer for the company.
"It is not acceptable that they have previously sent witnesses who seek to avoid asking difficult questions by claiming not to know the answers," said Collins. "We need to hear from people who can speak about Facebook from a position of authority that requires them to know the truth.
"Someone has to take responsibility for this," he added. "It's time for Mark Zuckerberg to stop hiding behind his Facebook page."
Collins is also inviting whistleblower Chris Wylie to appear in front of the committee.
Facebook did not respond to a request for comment.

Question: Archeologists open burial chambers in Sudanese pyramid

Sudan's official news agency says archeologists have reopened burial chambers in an ancient pyramid north of the capital, Khartoum.
SUNA says Tuesday the chambers are located at a depth of 10 meters (about 33 feet) under a pyramid in the Meroe area. The UNESCO world heritage site is home to pyramids ranging from six meters (20 feet) to 30 meters (100 feet) tall.
It says archeologists from a Qatari mission discovered artifacts, including human and animal bones, inside the chambers.
The pyramids, with narrow bases and steep angles on the sides, were built by the ancient Nubian civilization between 720 and 300 B.C.
Qatar has pledged $135 million to renovate and support Sudan's antiquities.

Question: Danone unveils new cost cuts amid dairy pressures

represent the article to find a fitting news title

French food group Danone has today unveiled a new €1 billion cost cutting plan.
It said the turnaround of its dairy division in Europe was taking longer than expected while tough conditions in China would also endure in 2017.
The world's largest yoghurt maker did not provide provide sales or operating profit margin growth targets for the current year.
It said it would review its financial goals for 2017 after closing its acquisition of US organic food group WhiteWave, which is slated for the first quarter.
Danone, which makes Activia yoghurt, Evian water and Bledina babyfood, said like-for-like sales in 2016 rose 2.9% to €21.94 billion.
This was in line with analysts' expectations of 2.9% growth for 2016, which was a slowdown from 4.4% growth in 2015.
The slowdown reflected tough market conditions in Spain and problems with the relaunch of its Activia brand in Europe, which held back dairy sales growth in the final quarter, while pressures in the Chinese market weighed on baby food sales.
Danone had flagged the European dairy problem in December, warning its 2016 sales growth would come below its original target of 3-5%.

Question: Police 'attack' beautician Paris Bregazzi jailed

Represent the article to find a fitting news title.

Image copyright PA Image caption Paris Valeta Bregazzi appeared at the Old Bailey on 20 February and was spared jail
A woman has been jailed for attacking a constable weeks after being spared prison for pushing another police officer on to Tube tracks.
Paris Bregazzi, 30, previously admitted shoving PC Sam Chegwin at Hangar Lane station.
But she ended up in the dock again accused of kneeing PC Florina Russ in the chest and spraying perfume at a Waterloo security guard.
She was jailed "for public protection", Judge Rebecca Poulet said.
On 20 February, Bregazzi appeared at the Old Bailey over the Hangar Lane attack and was handed a six-month jail term suspended for two years.
The court heard that last July Bregazzi had drunk four bottles of Prosecco and was arguing with a friend on the platform when PC Chegwin intervened.
'Not in a good mood'
She returned to the Old Bailey on Tuesday to be sentenced for her latest offences.
The court was told that on 5 March Bregazzi was seen on Stockwell Road, south London, acting "aggressively" towards two elderly ladies at a bus stop and throwing wheelie bins in the street.
Bregazzi threw a brick into the road, smashing the window of a parked Ford Fiesta, before walking in front of a bus which swerved to avoid her, the court heard.
She went on to knee arresting officer PC Florina Russ in the chest before being restrained, the Old Bailey was told.
In an interview she explained she was "not in a good mood".
Five days later Bregazzi, who was on bail, sprayed Paco Rabanne perfume at security officer Rashpal Mudahar at Waterloo Station, the court heard.
She went on to cause damage to a cell at Brixton police station by throwing food at the walls, covering them in tomato ketchup.
Crystal meth was found stuffed inside her bra, but she was not charged over it, the court heard.
'Damaged individual'
Bregazzi admitted assault and criminal damage and was brought from custody at Thameside men's jail to be sentenced.
The defendant was also dealt with for breaching her suspended sentence.
Mitigating, James Kelly described her as a "very damaged individual who is in emotional pain" and has a "problem with people in uniform".
He said transitioning from one sex to another was "difficult enough" without having to deal with others' attitudes.
Mr Kelly told the court that Bregazzi, who has 64 previous convictions, was due to be transferred to Belmarsh Prison.
Judge Poulet activated the suspended sentence and added four more months in prison for the assaults.
The defendant was also given eight weeks for criminal damage to run concurrently.

Question: Rumor the German shepherd wins best in show at Westminster

NEW YORK (AP) — Quite a rally for Rumor — a commanding comeback for German shepherds, too.
Rumor was crowned America’s top dog Tuesday night when, a year after a near miss on the very same green carpet, she came out of retirement to win best in show at the Westminster Kennel Club.
Cheered loudly all around the ring by a packed crowd at Madison Square Garden, she’s just the second German shepherd champion at the event that began in 1877.
“Unbelievable,” handler and co-owner Kent Boyles said.
In a year that’s seen lots of late, startling twists in sports — think Patriots, Cubs and Cavaliers — Rumor pulled something of a shocker. She’d been at home in Wisconsin for months, a house pet headed toward having puppies, when she suddenly jumped back into the show ring in January.
Boyles is a fan of the Packers and star quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Seeing a pet go from the couch to this top prize, heck, that’s a dog world Hail Mary.
The 5-year-old Rumor beat out a Norwegian elkhound, a Pekingese, a miniature poodle, an Irish setter, a boxer and a Norwich terrier in the final ring. The Irish setter called Adrian finished second.
“The German shepherd standard talks about quality and nobility,” judge Thomas Bradley III said. “When you recognize it, it hits you at home, and that’s what it really is. She is just magnificent.”
Rumor is named for the hit song “Rumor Has It” by Adele, a champion herself after sweeping the major categories at the Grammy Awards on Sunday.
This was the 104th career win for Rumor, and earlier in the day, Boyles said that this would definitely, for real, be her last major show.
“She’s going to be relaxing for a while,” Boyles said after the win, but ultimately, there are “puppies in her future.”
Clearly the crowd favorite, Rumor came out flying into the best-of-seven final ring to fans whistling and calling her name.
Rumor raised up for a well-deserved treat right after the win. Moments later, as Boyles did post-show interviews, Rumor spotted him and ran toward the man who guided her to victory.
Rumor joined the fittingly named Manhattan in 1987 as the only German shepherds to go best in show at the Garden.
There were nearly 2,800 dogs entered in the 141st Westminster canine competition, spread across the 202 eligible breeds and varieties.
The moment any German shepherd steps into the ring at the Garden, the crowd goes crazy.
New Yorkers just love ’em.
Some say it’s because rooting for a German shepherd is the same as putting on an NYPD or FDNY hat, standing up for a dog that stood tall at a time of the city’s greatest need.
“My sentiments, exactly,” Boyles said.
While German shepherds hadn’t won a lot here, many of them were on the green carpet of the center ring in 2002 when Westminster honored search and rescue dogs for their tireless work at the World Trade Center and Pentagon following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. The solemn tribute is considered by many the most cherished memory ever at Westminster.
“They’re loyal, dependable dogs that you can count on,” Boyles said.
Rumor nearly won Westminster last year. She came to town as the nation’s No. 1 show dog with more than 100 overall ribbons but was beaten in a surprise by a German shorthaired pointer named CJ.
In fact, when the judge began to announce his champion pick with “German sh…,” Boyles took a step forward, anticipating the prize.
“I was thinking,” Boyles said.
That was supposed to be Rumor’s last show, and she was set to head home with Boyles to Edgerton, Wisconsin, to be a house pet and have puppies. She didn’t conceive and late in the year, Boyles thought twice about Rumor’s retirement.
“She liked to show and was in good shape, so we thought, why not?” he said.
Rumor went back on the circuit in January for 10 shows. She won the herding group Monday night at the Garden, beating top show favorite Preston the puli.
She topped that with the ultimate win at America’s most prestigious dog show, rewarding the faith German shepherd fans always show in them.
“It’s a recognizable dog, people have liked them for a long, long time,” WKC President Sean McCarthy said earlier. “I think it goes back to Rin Tin Tin.”

Question: Metta World Peace Hoped To Re-Sign With Chicago Bulls

Well before he played a key role on the Los Angeles Lakers’ 2010 NBA Championship team as Metta World Peace, Ron Artest was an enthusiastic rookie selected by the Chicago Bulls with the 16th overall pick in the 1999 NBA Draft.
His time with the Bulls lasted less than three seasons before he was traded to the Indiana Pacers. He was solid during his time there on the court, averaging 12.5 points, 4.2 rebounds, and two steals. Artest was named to the All-Rookie Second Team in 2000.
There were some issues at play as well, however. He came under scrutiny for applying for a job at Circuit City during his rookie season in order to get the employee discount. He would also admit years later that there were times when he would drink Hennessey during halftime of games.
Now retired and serving as a player development coach for the South Bay Lakers, World Peace completely understands his shortcomings. In an interview with Phil Thompson of the Chicago Tribune, World Peace chalked up his issues to youth and immaturity, and revealed he hoped to return to the Bulls organization:
“I kind of overwore my welcome. I was just too young at that time. I had tried to get back. It was a place where I wouldn’t have minded playing again, but sometimes it’s just too late.”
Many people, regardless of profession, look back on their younger days in disbelief at how they used to be. World Peace is no different as he is far more mature now than he was in his early 20s.
Now that he has retired, he can look back on those days and laugh at what he used to be. Luckily for World Peace, his time in Chicago should give him excellent experience in relating to similar young players as a coach.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — DeMarcus Cousins will spend the rest of the 2016-17 NBA season walking on eggshells.
Having already served a league-mandated suspension for accruing 16 technical fouls, Cousins faces subsequent one-game bans for every two additional violations. Subduing emotion has always been difficult for the All-Star big man, but now the penalty for failure is more severe than ever.
Every incident that could produce a shout, scowl or diatribe against officials suddenly comes at a steeper price. Errant hands to the face of Donatas Motiejunas get extra scrutiny, for example. Reactions to low blows from Buddy Hield, obvious no-calls and every other potential outburst could result in another team-crippling suspension.
And you'd better believe it's weighing on Cousins.
"I don't know how to be myself anymore," he said softly from his locker stall at the Golden 1 Center on Friday night.
The Kings had just engineered a 22-point comeback to steal a win from the visiting Atlanta Hawks, but more importantly, it was Cousins' first night back from his initial suspension. He admitted the threat of future discipline affected his performance. Hence the miniature existential emergency.
"It's well known I'm a very emotional player," Cousins later explained to Bleacher Report. "I play with a lot of passion, a lot of emotion. I know that's what makes me the player that I am. When I'm kind of crucified for how I play, and they want change, it's hard for me to be the same type of player...It's just me trying to find the balance. I'm trying to make the adjustment, I'm trying to make the change for the better."
Can he sustain his productivity while snuffing out the fire that led to his suspension? And can he do it as the pressure of the season's stretch run intensifies?

Cousins understands the stakes. He knows his team is within sniffing distance of the franchise's first playoff berth since 2007. And he knows one game lost to suspension here or there could be the difference between reaching what he's called his only goal and falling short again.
"The guy's trying so hard," head coach Dave Joerger said. "He's an emotional player, so it's like he's playing with one hand behind his back if he can't ever say anything. He doesn't want to hurt the team. He doesn't want to get another technical."
Cousins survived the comeback win against Atlanta without incurring tech No. 17, but it was no easy thing. He was sluggish, visibly frustrated and unable to hide the strain of, well...restraint. Is his effectiveness divisible from his emotion?
"I'm dealing with my own demons right now," he said. "I've got to focus on what's going on at the moment, and I did a terrible job of that."
Two nights later, Cousins was assessed a first-quarter technical foul for an errant swing of the arm that caught New Orleans Pelicans forward Motiejunas in the face. In order to compose himself, Cousins actually left the floor and went to the locker room.

"It was kind of hard for me with that one because of the situation that had just occurred where I come back and the slightest thing and I'm back (facing suspension)," Cousins said. "It's hard, but I had to gather myself, refocus and get back to the main objective which is winning the game. I've got to walk the straight and narrow. It's all I can do."
Sacramento won that game as well, getting 28 points, 14 rebounds and seven assists from its best player—despite an ejection-triggering groin shot from Pelicans guard Hield. It was as if the basketball gods were testing Boogie. To his credit, he passed. Plenty of players with less volatile reputations would have snapped in that situation.
But so many more games lie ahead. So many more trials have yet to be undertaken. And, again, Cousins' margin for error is basically nil.
How he handles the challenge he's helped create for himself (despite protestations about unfair treatment from officials, he is partly responsible for his situation) will either signal the kind of growth so many have been waiting to see or reaffirm the doubts that have dogged him for years.

He'll have help.
"I lean on all my teammates, not just Matt (Barnes). But he is the voice of our team. Everybody leans on Matt when times get hard because he's been through it all, seen it all on all levels."
Barnes, like Cousins, is no stranger to image problems.
"He's got a tough rap—the reputation he's earned," Barnes told ESPN-Tencent's Yuan Fang. "Whether it's good or bad. We both have bad and that took me my whole career to change mine and it hasn't worked. He just has to be able to adjust within his reputation and still be himself. He has to keeps his head."
Barnes has been a calming figure all season, which may seem odd given his volatile reputation. He commands respect like no on else on the roster, and you can see it in the locker room and on the floor. When the Kings found life in the second half against Atlanta, they did so after Barnes gathered his teammates together at the foul line before the third quarter.
When he motioned for a huddle, everyone—Cousins included—hustled over, leaned in close and listened to the veteran as he clapped his hands and exhorted them to perform.
"I thought Matt did a good job of really talking to us the whole game," Darren Collison said. "He was the leader when things weren't going well."
This is about more than Cousins' personal journey, though. The Kings have professed commitment to their big man, with general manager Vlade Divac saying Cousins won't be traded. A contract extension worth upwards of $200 million will likely come by July.
Cousins could validate that faith by adjusting his behavior and upping his level of play. Or he could falter and, in doing so, force the Kings to reconsider their committed stance. Worse still, he might come up short and get that max extension anyway, which would effectively consign Sacramento to another half-decade of maddening sub-mediocrity.
We've seen a lot from DeMarcus Cousins over the last six years.
He's got six weeks to show us something more.
Kings Insider's Notebook
Free Willie
Joerger is loath to play Willie Cauley-Stein with Cousins, which is probably frustrating for fans who'd like to see athleticism like this alongside the proven productivity of an All-Star big man:

But Sacramento's defense has been untenably bad in the 119 minutes the duo has played together, and it's only gotten worse as the season has worn on. In 50 minutes since Jan. 1, the Kings have allowed 118.1 points per 100 possessions with Cousins and Cauley-Stein on the court.
That's not to say Cauley-Stein's without his uses. Lately, his energy and rim-rolling prowess have charged up the Kings' scrappy second unit. He put up 14 points, five rebounds and four assists in a Feb. 8 win over the Boston Celtics.
"He's getting to balls that are outside of his area, and I think he's a lot more comfortable with our defensive schemes and also our offensive schemes where he can find seams to get to the rim."
In limited minutes as part of a unit with Anthony Tolliver, Matt Barnes, Ben McLemore and either Darren Collison or Ty Lawson, Cauley-Stein has solidified himself as a rotation player with upside. That's good timing by him, as Cousins figures to miss a few games before season's end, which will free up minutes in the middle.
Return of the Mac
Does it count as a return if Ben McLemore's viability as an NBA player was never really certain in the first place?
Rather than worry about the details, check this out: McLemore is tearing it up since regaining a role after six consecutive DNPs.
In February, he's averaging 13.3 points per game and hitting 50 percent of his threes. His 22 points and 6-of-10 effort from long distance were vital in Friday's win over Atlanta.
"He's always been a good shooter to me, it was just a matter of time for him to really turn the corner," Darren Collison said. "One thing about Ben, even when he wasn't playing, he was always in the gym. First one in the gym, last one to leave."
Cousins, as you'd expect, was more forthright: "Ben is like a little brother to me. It's bigger than basketball, just to see him remain positive, remain professional through the bulls--t and things not going his way ... I think he's hitting his stride. I think that good karma's coming around for him now."
Digging Holes and Microcosms
It's fitting the Kings are scrambling to make up ground in the West after an uninspiring first half of the season (or 50-plus games, as the case may be). Because that seems to be the way they operate.
Here's proof:
Kings False Starts Quarter Offensive Rating Defensive Rating Net Rating First 100.7 111.9 -11.3 Second 103.5 111.4 -7.9 Third 108.8 104.9 +3.9 Fourth 108.9 105.9 +3.0 NBA.com
On the one hand, failing to show up for games before halftime is a concern. But, on the other, the Kings have been forced to develop resiliency.
"Our fight and our heart is undeniable," Cousins said. "I believe everybody here can agree with me on that. That being said, we can't keep putting ourselves in that position. We gotta make these games easier for ourselves."
Not getting blasted in every first quarter (the Kings lost all three opening periods in their three-game winning streak) would be a good start.

Question: Cleveland shooting the latest crime video on Facebook

A Facebook video of an Ohio man shooting a 74-year-old retiree in Cleveland was up for three hours Sunday after it was posted, raising questions about the social-media network’s process for taking down objectionable content posted by its users.
The shooter’s profile page was also removed. Facebook will deactivate accounts if it determines they pose safety threats.
FACEBOOK POLICY
The company said it does not allow such “horrific crime” on Facebook.
Advertisement
It has algorithms that attempt to automatically filter out some stuff, like pornography. But the decision of whether to take down violent acts on video is more complicated.
There is a team that monitors videos in dozens of languages, and must decide what to remove. Graphic videos and images that document human rights abuses and are intended to make others aware of them, for example, could be permitted. Videos that violate the company’s standards , including those that “glorify” violence, that are “shared for sadistic pleasure,” or that mock victims, would be removed.
It’s not alone in this approach. Google says “violent” or “gory” videos intended to be “shocking, sensational or disrespectful” shouldn’t be on YouTube but, like Facebook, says that it allows videos of some violent episodes to remain, such as footage of, say, protesters being beaten with information added about the date, location and additional “context.” Users report graphic or violent videos.
SOCIAL BENEFIT
Live video posted of Philando Castile , a black man who was shot by police in Minnesota during a traffic stop, helped drive attention to police shootings of black men through millions of viewings in July 2016. The video was down briefly, which the company blamed on a glitch, but then was back up. Facebook attached a warning about graphic content.
REMOVAL PROCESS
Facebook relies on users to report videos that glorify violence or disrespect victims. People have to know how to report videos and take the step to do it. Facebook reviews most video within hours, but that means some take longer. One exception: Videos posted live that rack up a certain high number of viewers are reviewed by the company and can be interrupted without any reports from users. The company would not specify what that threshold is.

WINDOW ROCK, Ariz. — A Navajo Code Talker who used his native language to confound the Japanese in World War II has died.
The Navajo Nation says Roy Hawthorne Sr. died Saturday. He was 92.
Hawthorne enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps at 17 and became part of a famed group of Navajos who transmitted hundreds of messages in their language without error.
The code was never broken.
Hawthorne was one of the most visible survivors of the group. He appeared at public events and served as vice president of a group representing the men.
He never considered himself a hero.
Hawthorne later served with the U.S. Army.
He's survived by five children and more than a dozen grandchildren.
A funeral service is scheduled Friday.

Question: FAA Investigating After Harrison Ford Flies Over Jetliner Awaiting Takeoff

Represent the article to find a fitting news title

Noted aviator and actor Harrison Ford flew his private plane over a jet airliner on the ground at a Southern California airport Monday. It's not the first time the Star Wars and Indiana Jones star has had problems landing.
The 74-year-old Ford was instructed to land on a runway at Orange County's John Wayne Airport but mistakenly landed on a parallel taxiway, passing over a Boeing 737 carrying 110 passengers and six crew members.
On a recording, Ford asked air traffic controllers, "Was that airliner meant to be underneath me?" according to NBC News, which first reported the incident.
Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Ian Gregor said the pilot heard and read back the correct landing instructions, according to The Associated Press. Gregor did not confirm it was Ford who was piloting the plane, a single-engine Aviat Husky. The AP reports that he didn't say how close Ford's plane came to hitting the jet on the ground.
No one was injured and the jet, American Airlines Flight 1456, took off for Dallas shortly after without incident.
The FAA is now investigating, which "could result in a simple warning letter to a suspension of Ford's pilot's license," NBC reports.
Ford collects vintage planes and has been flying for decades. According to NPR's Russell Lewis, Ford is "a highly-skilled and highly-rated pilot. He's qualified to fly single and twin engine planes, sea planes, helicopters and he's also an instrument-rated pilot." In 2015, Ford said he owned "eight or nine various types of airplanes," according to NTSB documents posted on AirSafe.com.
Ford reported on a medical certificate application that he had logged at least 5,200 flight hours, according to the NTSB.
He was a 2008 honoree and received the Legends Aviation Legacy Award from Kiddie Hawk Air Academy, and subsequently had an award named after him.
Ford was seriously injured in March 2015 when he crash-landed a restored World War II-era trainer plane on a golf course near the Santa Monica Airport shortly after takeoff. A National Transportation Safety Board report found the crash was caused by a loose engine part.
In 2000, Ford's plane "departed" a runway in Lincoln, Neb., because of a gust of wind, according to AirSafe.com. He was flying a Beechcraft Bonanza which "sustained minor damage," though Ford and his passenger were not injured.
And in 1999 he crash-landed a helicopter during a training flight in Ventura County, near Los Angeles, according to the AP. "Although the helicopter rolled over on its left side, neither Ford or the instructor were injured," AirSafe.com notes.
