Dubai-based Nigerian fighter Aliu Lasisi will Friday at Emirates Golf Club, Dubai face one of his biggest tests yet when he meets Nicaragua's Ricardo Blandon for the vacant WBC International Super Flyweight title, Completesports.com reports.
Lasisi who remains undefeated with a 12-0 record since moving to Dubai in 2015 as a pro fighter, has promised to extend his winning streak in the ring by beating his opponent.
The Nigerian shot into reckoning by winning the silver version of the title last December in Accra, Ghana.
"I won't be defending my silver title on Friday", Lasisi told Completesports.com from his training camp in Ghana last Saturday.
Lasisi who has since landed in Dubai ahead of the fight added: "I know my opponent is quite good, but I will prove I'm better in the ring.
Aliu Lasisi (r) at a briefing heralding the fight in Dubai on Tuesday.
A win for Lasisi on Friday will surely propel his career for a shot at the main WBC Super Flyweight title presently held by Mexico's Juan Francisco Estrada.

Engineering is not Fraud | Devlin Consulting, Inc.
Mark Cuban, owner of the Dallas Mavericks, recently wrote an article in his blog and used the term Financial Engineering, implying it was responsible for ruining financial markets. I agree with the points he makes, but find his application of the term 'engineering' to be a gross misapplication of the word. I suppose it puts engineers in good company, since the term 'doctoring the results' has similar negative connotations, even though doctors are generally thought to be upstanding members of the communities they serve.
"Financial engineering is a multidisciplinary field involving financial theory, the methods of financing, using tools of mathematics, computational and the practice of programming to achieve the desired end-results.
Not that the Wikipedia is an authority on the topic, but Cuban's use of the term financial engineering, implying that it involves fraudulently manipulating the market to profit a select group by creating huge losses for true investors, is not consistent with that definition.
Engineers are measured by how well they can discern and explain truths. If you're an engineer and prone to lying about your calculations, you won't be an engineer for very long. You could even get someone killed. I'm not saying that it's impossible for an engineer to lie, it's just that engineers who do lie usually aren't very good engineers and generally leave the profession, usually moving on to areas where that skill is better appreciated.
Some professions actually place a high value on stretching the truth and consider it a desirable trait. Marketing comes to mind :-). One of the most prolific writers on the subject of marketing, Seth Godin, actually wrote a book entitled 'All Marketers are Liars', and it became a best seller. I read it and it's very good, just like his other books. Godin originally wanted to call the book "All Marketers are Storytellers", but used the word "Liars" to sell more books. That's an example of lying wrapped in the guise of clever marketing.
Marketing isn't the only profession where spinning a good yarn can be appreciated. If you're guilty of some crime, you probably would want a lawyer who could spin the facts to make it look like you're actually innocent. Used car salesmen are often times thought to be quintessential liars, not all of them, mind you, just the really good ones. If you're an actor, you have to lie to convince the audience you're some character that you're obviously not. So lying may be a necessary skill in some professions, but engineering is not one of them.
I wish I could help Cuban out by coming up with a new term for the financial fraud that periodically gets perpetrated on Wall Street, but perhaps we should just call it what it really is, that is, fraud, since there's no reason to tarnish a profession by implying that its name is synonymous with the word 'fraud'.

A new service, amalgamated with Discovery Plus, will replace HBO Max next year
August 8, 2022 in In The News
On a recent conference call, Warner Bros Discovery CEO David Zaslav revealed that HBO Max will be terminated in the summer of 2023, and be replaced by a new service.
Zaslav was much more diplomatic than most would be when describing HBO Max, which regularly has performance and customer issues. He described the app as having a competitive feature set but also having performance and customer issues. Zaslav then announced that Discovery Plus has a more advanced tech stack and will become the foundation of a new service that will combine HBO Max content with Discovery Plus' content and technology.
After assuring listeners that the company would not be canceling a flurry of HBO Max-focused products, Zaslav said during the call that he believes the product will be outstanding. This information comes after a week of frustration for users. Early in the week, the company announced that Batgirl would not be released as planned and would be sent to the vault. HBO Max films that were available only on the service were also removed. Things reportedly look grim for HBO Max and its creative development teams as reported by The Wrap.
Zaslav attempted to allay those concerns during the call and guaranteed that HBO Max's content was excellent and supported by the corporation as a whole. During the Q&A portion, Zaslav stated that HBO Max had begun to develop into a distinct brand—one especially associated with quality—as a result of the new service. It is unknown what Warner Brothers Discovery will name the newly merged service, but we can anticipate more from Zaslav as he consolidates his company even more in the coming year.

Hey guys. I'll admit to not being super knowledgeable about the AR stuff. But I got a few parts in trade, and figure I had a stripped lower in the safe maybe I'll put together.
In the lot of parts I got, a incomplete LPK, some monstrous quad rail thing, and a buffer & spring.
It's been awhile since I've had an AR on hand, but this looks very, very long compared to what I remember having on mine.
The Spring itself measures out to 17" , looks like 42 coils. I thought I remembered the recoil on my carbine being 10-12" or so? The buffer itself is is just under 5" long, maybe 4 7/8" ish?
Are these .308 parts? They seem to be considerably different than any standard parts I've had before. Any input is appreciated, thanks.
Yeah then I'm not sure what this is from. Its 17" long, maybe its just a stretched out and/or hammered spring?
Maybe a mag spring from a shotgun?
Not outside the realm of possibility, but it came with a buffer on/in it. Also was some odd "rings"? and a firing pin, which looks like it may be a little longer than standard AR too?
Is it a flat wire spring were the coils/spring flat instead of round? If so it may likely be a Tubb's shooting system spring which are considerably longer than a standard spring.
At 17" long I can't think of any spring, other than a shotgun tube spring, that it could be.

New technique could allow astronomers to send messages through the void of space
By Luke Dormehl	 February 4, 2019
What do you do when you really want to send a message, but your smartphone just isn't up to the job? Simple: You vibrate space itself so as to harness it as a communication method. OK, so that doesn't actually sound all that simple at all, but it could nonetheless be one way of sending and receiving messages through the vastness of deep space in the future. That's according to researchers from Illinois State University, who recently described such a proposal in a research paper, published in the journal Physical Review Letters.
It describes using a Dirac vacuum as a transport medium for information. A Dirac vacuum refers to insights provided by the British physicist and Nobel Prize Laureate Paul Dirac, who suggested that vacuums such as deep space are not actually empty, but rather filled with energy. By using electromagnetic fields to manipulate a vacuum could create ripples in its structure, which could then be measured using the energies of particle pairs generated by a phenomenon called the Schwinger effect. Were such changes to be modulated and correlated with individual letters, researchers Charles Su and Rainer Grobe hypothesize that it might be possible to create a sort of vacuum-based Morse code. To be clear, this would not require a medium such as light to transport the message, but would instead send it out as a ripple in space itself.
As the researchers write in the abstract for their paper: "Usually, the transport of information requires either an electromagnetic field or matter as a carrier. It turns out that the Dirac vacuum modes could be exploited as a potentially loss-free carrier of information between two distant locations in space. At the first location, a spatially localized electric field is placed, whose temporal shape is modulated, for example, as a binary sequence of distinguishable high and low values of the amplitude. The resulting distortion of the vacuum state reflecting this information propagates then to a second location, where this digital signal can be read off sequentially by a static electric field pulse. If this second field is supercritical, it can create electron-positron pairs from the manipulated vacuum state. The original information transported by the vacuum mode is then imprinted on the temporal behavior of the created particle yield for a selected energy."
To be clear, the calculations described in their paper are preliminary, so expecting this technology to roll out in the near future is wishful thinking. But as an exciting possible approach to future communication which could trigger more research? Yep, this certainly qualifies!

We're delighted to be a part of the University of Leeds' Writing Chinese project, based at the University's White Rose East Asia Centre.
The Writing Chinese project came about because, firstly, there's a lot of exciting things going on in contemporary writing in Chinese and we wanted a way to share this with a wider audience. And secondly, there's often a tendency for academia to be quite disconnected from any kind of dialogue with writers themselves (especially new writers), or with others working in the field, such as translators, publishers, agents or reviewers. So we wanted a way to bring all these different voices together.
The project is funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, through the White Rose East Asia Centre (WREAC), and we've been able to organize a series of talks by writers, translators and publishers, as well as a translation masterclass, and a planned symposium this summer. And each month we choose a writer – often one who is only just beginning to be translated into English – to be part of our bookclub, with stories in both the original Chinese and in English translation featured on our website.
And this is where we come in. Part of the project is the Bai Meigui Translation Competition. This is, as the name suggests, a competition to translate a story by the award-winning Hong Kong author Bai Meigui. The winner will receive a full bursary to attend the July 2015 translation summer school Translate in the City in London and the winning story will be published in issue 14 of Structo.
The deadline for entries is the 28th of February. Full details here.

Arizona Supreme Court Rebuffs Tucson's Illegal Destruction of Firearms
September 7, 2017 glen Zediker	6 Comments
A Supreme Court ruling in Arizona establishes that forfeited and seized firearms should be treated the same as any other valuable property. Here's the story…
On Thursday, August 17, the Arizona Supreme Court unanimously held that the state was within its authority to prohibit cities and counties from routinely destroying firearms obtained through forfeiture or as unclaimed property. State law holds that political subdivisions must instead (subject to certain exceptions) recirculate the firearms through legitimate channels of commerce, just as they do with other types of valuable property. The case represents the latest battle in an effort dating back nearly two decades to prevent anti-gun localities from undermining the pro-gun policies of the state legislature.
While the case — State v. City of Tucson — rests on complicated issues of Arizona constitutional, statutory, and common law, it illustrates challenges facing gun owners nationwide and the importance of sustained advocacy in ensuring Second Amendment rights. Infringements of the right to keep and bear arms are rarely resolved simply by pointing to the Second Amendment or similar provisions of state constitutions. Rather, it often takes remedial legislation, backed by months or years of painstaking litigation, to vindicate the rights of gun owners.
The case also illustrates how even in the most pro-gun of states, there are always anti-gun enclaves and/or political opportunists who will openly defy clear legal authority for as long as possible to further their oppressive agenda of suppressing our firearms freedom.
As explained in the case's leading opinion, the Arizona legislature passed a statute in 2000 to assert exclusive authority over the regulation of firearms and ammunition. Nevertheless, the City of Tucson five years later enacted an ordinance calling for the destruction of certain unclaimed or forfeited firearms.
The legislature, in turn, responded by enacting two additional statutes in 2013 that prohibited agencies, political subdivisions, and law enforcement entities from "facilitating the destruction of a firearm" and that instructed them instead to sell the firearms to businesses which lawfully participate in gun sales.
Despite the legislature's explicit directives, Tucson destroyed nearly 5,000 additional firearms after the enactment of the 2013 laws. The legislature again responded in 2016, this time by establishing a framework by which one or more members of the legislature could seek remedial action through the state attorney general's office against alleged violations of Arizona's laws or its constitution by political subdivisions.
Pursuant to that framework, Arizona Rep. Mark Finchem asked the attorney general to review Tucson's firearm destruction program. Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich concluded that Tucson's ordinance was contrary to state law, but the city rejected the findings and refused to take corrective action. Pursuant to the 2016 law, Attorney General Brnovich then filed a petition with the Arizona Supreme Court to resolve the matter.
Although the justices were divided on their reasoning, all agreed the state legislature had acted within its authority by enacting the statute preventing localities from destroying firearms that were otherwise lawful to sell under state and federal law. The leading opinion of four justices validated the NRA's argument that protecting the right to keep and bear arms enshrined in the state and federal constitutions is a matter of statewide concern and that the enactments of the legislature on this subject therefore take precedence over the acts of charter cities.
Tucson's behavior to date leaves little doubt that anti-gun officials will continue looking for ways to undermine the rights of gun owners within the city, notwithstanding the state legislature's pronouncements. This is unfortunately an all-too-common phenomenon across the country in otherwise pro-gun states. That is exactly why the NRA's work to vindicate the rights of gun owners never stops, even when it does not grab national headlines.
The leading opinion of four justices validated the NRA's argument that protecting the right to keep and bear arms enshrined in the state and federal constitutions is a matter of statewide concern and that the enactments of the legislature on this subject therefore take precedence over the acts of charter cities.

Deplorable Robert says:
Term limits for ALL City and state officials. We need to be able to remove unconstitutionally acting officals.
WhiteFalcon says:
When city and state officials deliberately violate state and federal laws as well as Constitutional provisions, those city and state officials should go to state and federal prisons. Once that begins to happen, all this nonsense will cease.
Larry Schillinger says:
Term limits is not the fix all for stopping cities such as anti-gun Tucson. Many times unelected bureaucrats are the ones responsible, Chiefs pf Police as an example. Many times these bureaucrats are protected by other laws/ordinances. Protections need to be stripped, make them legally responsible.
19E60 says:
We already have term limits for every office holder in this country; they are called elections.
Why force out a competent experienced office-holder through an arbitrary term "limit"?
Edward Weber says:
The reason that gun control advocates continue to abuse the laws is because they suffer no repercussions. When the politicians in Tucson essentially gave the middle finger to the laws of the State, no one went to jail or lost their job. No one was held accountable. Until that happens, they will continue.
Chuck Shaw says:
Repercussions for elected officials are no problem – it's called recall elections. The problem, not just for the 2nd amendment, was the acceptance of appointed individuals, committees and so on with the power to make regulations with the force of law. It started in the FDR administration and has kept growing ever since. If someone can find a way to prune back that delegation of authority without crashing the whole government that relies on it, they are smarter than I am.

Usource Bookings Up 100% in Q1 2000
Hampton, NH – April 17, 2000: Unitil Corporation (AMEX: UTL) (www.unitil.com) announced today that customer volumes served by Usource, its Internet energy auction system serving large commercial and industrial customers, have increased more than 100% in the first quarter of 2000. Usource estimates that it has roughly $112 Million of energy under management. Usource is proving to be one of the most successful Internet platforms for energy acquisitions by large energy consumers.
Launched in mid-1999, Usource is an Internet based energy marketplace that allows large commercial/industrial customers to post their energy needs for evaluation and bid by a large number of pre-qualified suppliers. If the supplier offers a price the buyer wants and meets the buyer's terms and conditions, the deal is done. Unlike many Internet sites that merely compare prices for standard offers by suppliers, Usource is a live marketplace in which suppliers make firm bids against firm commitments by customers to buy their electricity and gas. Usource runs on the sophisticated transaction-based software and energy commodity Exchange developed and licensed by Enermetrix.com. (http://www.enermetrix.com/), a privately held company headquartered in Maynard, MA.
"The reasons for these high growth figures are simple. Usource is delivering on its promises and that's why customers such as Multiple Intervenors of New York and the New York Housing Authority are choosing Usource," said Unitil CEO, Bob Schoenberger. "Usource is real and it's delivering tangible benefits - customers are executing transactions and saving time and money on their energy purchases. In the near future we will be expanding our geographic base and launching an enhanced Internet platform targeted to the under-served medium sized business customer."
Usource runs on the Enermetrix.com Energy Exchange, a very sophisticated transaction-based software and Internet site developed by Enermetrix.com. (www.enermetrix.com) Enermetrix.com is a privately held company headquartered in Maynard, Massachusetts, with operations throughout the United States. Enermetrix.com's award-winning Internet commerce system is the nation's most active exchange for commercial, industrial and other aggregate energy transactions.

Report: Al-Qaeda's mass Iraq jailbreak was an 'insider job'
Guards stand at a cell block at the renovated Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad, Iraq on Feb 21, 2009. (Photo courtesy: AP)
Al Arabiya Wednesday 24 July 2013
Iraqi authorities believe an armed attack on two prisons on Sunday night, which freed hundreds of al-Qaeda combatants, was an "insider job," The Telegraph reported on Tuesday.
Gunmen who attacked Abu Ghraib and Taji prisons were "conspiring" with guards working inside the prisons, Iraq's Ministry of Interior said, according to the newspaper.
"There has been a conspiracy between some of the guards of both prisons and the terrorist gangs that attacked the prisons," The Telegraph quoted the Iraqi interior ministry's statement as saying.
On Tuesday, al-Qaeda claimed responsibility for executing raids on the two prisons and freeing over 500 prisoners, including senior al-Qaeda militants.
"The mujahideen (holy warriors), after months of preparation and planning, targeted two of the largest prisons of the Safavid government," read the al-Qaeda statement posted on jihadist forums.
Among those who escaped are high-ranking al-Qaeda officials who may attempt a revenge attack, a high-ranking security official told AFP on the condition of anonymity.
"Dark days are waiting for Iraq. Some of those who escaped are senior leaders of al-Qaeda and the operation was executed for this group of leaders," the official said.
"Those who escaped will work on committing acts of revenge, most of which might be suicide attacks," he added.

The students were delighted with Clive's tales.
This week the wonderfully talented Clive Pig - storyteller, poet and author - inspired, entertained and rib-tickled St. Andrews Foundation Stage and Primary students. Over two days Clive hosted presentations in which he captivated the children, delivering his stories and poetry with fantastic expression and characterisation. He also ran workshops on storytelling and writing for some year groups linked to the topics they are studying.
Clive's visit was a huge success: when we asked for comments from both students and teachers, we were inundated with positive feedback. Clive is truly passionate about the spoken and written word which came across clearly during his time at St. Andrews. His storytelling was magnificent, as it showed children how to use expression and different tones and voices to engage the listener. He used his own brilliant work to inspire the children to create their own poems and stories.
"I'd like to say a humongous thank you to all the staff and students at the fabulous St. Andrews International School, Bangkok. From beginning to end my visit was an absolute pleasure because of the friendliness and joyful atmosphere that permeates the campus.
"What was especially lovely was that each year group - from Early Years to Year 6 - was so receptive to the variety of tales I shared. The fond memories of my visit to your wonderful school will keep me warm during the chill mists of autumn here in the U.K.
We had a fun-filled (and very wet) end to Term 2 and Term 3 is bursting at the seams with action for all our KS2 students.

La valvola Dunlop, nota anche come valvola Woods o valvola inglese, è una valvola che provvede alla chiusura ermetica negli pneumatici tubeless e nelle camere d'aria presenti nelle ruote di bicicletta e ciclomotori leggeri. Viene utilizzata in numerosi paesi, tra i quali Giappone, Repubbliche dell'ex Unione Sovietica, Paesi Bassi, Germania, Finlandia e Paesi in via di sviluppo.

Storia
L'inventore fu C. H. Woods. Sostituì l'originale Dunlop, mantenendone il nome.
La sua base, rispetto alla valvola Presta, è più larga, ma può essere gonfiata con adattatori e pompe Presta. A causa della sua costruzione, la valvola Dunlop, come la Presta, controlla la pressione solo nel momento in cui è gonfiata, visto che l'aria interna, premendo sul nucleo interno, tiene in pressione la camera d'aria o lo pneumatico.

Dr Iwa Salami debates cryptocurrencies and blockchains at Parliament
UEL's Dr Iwa Salami joins innovative think tank Parliament Street and other experts for discussion on the future digital economy
Dr Iwa Salami, senior lecturer in financial law and regulation at the University of East London, joined experts at Parliament on 27 March to participate in a debate on the opportunities and challenges of cryptocurrencies and blockchain and their role in the future digital economy.
The event was organised by think tank Parliament Street. Dr Salami's research focuses on the laws and regulation of cryptocurrencies and blockchain,
Dr Salami said, "Although the regulation of cryptocurrencies presents significant challenges due to the limitation of achieving uniform regulatory approaches across countries, cryptocurrencies are an indication of the future of money and how transactions are going to be settled in the future.
"The blockchain, the technology facilitating cryptocurrencies, promises to promote the efficiency of the delivery of both public and private sector services across sectors and industries, and we think we will increasingly see its adoption in the future."
However, "while the blockchain presents numerous opportunities for businesses, and smart contracts facilitates these transactions, for as long as we still have the delivery of physical goods and services, we will always need human lawyers, judges and physical courts to resolve disputes. We do not live in a virtual world."
Dr Salami's research focuses on the laws and regulation of cryptocurrencies and blockchain,
Cryptocurrencies are alternative ways of monetary exchanges for businesses and investors. They remove the need for high transaction costs which overseas banking often entails. Investors are beginning to see cryptocurrencies as a new form of long-term investment.
Blockchain technology helps to collate all the transactions of a financial process. Originally used to support cryptocurrency, it is now being rolled out for logistics and supply chain processes. It has great benefits including reducing fraud and increasing transparency. Blockchain is beginning to be considered as a good digital solution to help track the movement of goods and services.
Dr Salami, other academics and representatives from UK businesses including Nexus UK, BeQuant and elliptic.co discussed at Parliament how these technologies can revitalise how businesses operate. The debate included several topics, including changing the term 'cryptocurrency' to improve public perceptions and using blockchains to help international development and charity. A key topic was whether the government needs to have a bigger role in promoting the use of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.
The event highlighted some of the still-complex aspects of characterising cryptocurrencies whether as money or assets or the determination of their value. It also drew attention to the challenges of regulation and the role of regulatory technology in this process. The outcome of the debate illustrated that a great deal is still required to clarify the direction of the global regulation of cryptocurrencies and cryptocurrencies exchanges.

It was like having a PhD from Harvard or Dallas Seminary. Acts 17:2 said he would regularly reason with the Jews from the Scriptures on the Sabbath days. He used his best gifts and natural talents, but found them NOT WORKING! Ever been there??? His best STRENGTH was not working!! He is ready to give up his ministry. God has to speak to him to encourage him, And the Lord said to Paul one night in a vision, "Do not be afraid, but go on speaking and do not be silent, for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many in this city who are my people." And he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men 1 Co 1:25.

From ditching your walk to work coffee, making your own lunch and swapping the car for the bus, there are lots of ways to slash your workplace spending.
That's according to the money saving guru's at PromotionalCodes.org.uk who have looked at the ways Brits could cut what they spend while they're at work.
Splashing out on lunch and a morning coffee could set you back hundreds and that's before you treat yourself to an afternoon snack.
Making small changes like taking in leftovers, swapping your bottled water for tap and avoiding the shops, could save you a fortune.
Darren Williams from PromotionalCodes.org.uk said: "Being at work is about making and saving money, not spending it.
"A few simple changes can make all the difference. Ditch the morning coffee on your way in and straight away you've saved over £12 a week. Over a year that's a whooping £650.
"Take the bus instead of the car and you'll not only save on petrol, you can also ditch the pricey parking you shell out for. Even better, pull on your trainers and walk to work. It's free and you're exercising at the same time.
Here are the top tips from PromotionalCodes.org.uk to cut your workplace spending.
Instead of buying a pricey coffee on your way to work, why not make it when you get there? You'll only have to hang on a few more minutes and if your boss provides tea and coffee making facilities, you may as well use them. If they don't, invest in a cheap kettle and a jar of coffee.
If your regular workday lunch is a meal deal, then you're shelling out around £3.50 a day, or £17.50 a week. Annually, that's a shocking £910. So make your sarnies or take leftovers and you'll be spending pennies.
If you grab a bottle of water along with your morning coffee on the way to the office – stop. Instead invest in a cheap water bottle and fill it up from the tap whenever you need a drink.
An afternoon snack can set you back up to £1 a day. Over the course of a week that's £5 and a grand total of £260 a year. If you really can't resist a sugary treat, buy in bulk and save yourself a few pounds.
Try swapping the car for public transport or if you live close enough to the office, go on foot instead. You'll be cutting down on petrol and parking costs and if you chose to walk to work, you'll be getting fit too.
If you usually head to the gym at lunchtime, ditch it and instead go for a brisk walk or run instead. You'll save your annual membership and will get fit for free.
If you have a lunchtime spending habit, then avoid hitting the shops and don't be tempted by a bit of window shopping. Instead take your book into work or take a walk away from town to fill your lunch hour.
If you can't resist heading to the shops and do need to snap up a few bits, head for the sale rails. An hour gives you just enough time to pick up a few bargains without going mad – and remember, question whether you actually need the item before it goes through the till.


we purchased a 2015 Salem cruiselite 241QBXL and when we went to use the water , we had none in the kitchen or bath sinks and very low flow to the toilet, but the shower worked? we need to find out what the problem is , so it can be fixed.
any solutions? We can not afford to pay 135 an hour at the dealer. we already had to replace the steps and buy a spare tire. If anyone can help with this problem or has had this problem , please tell us what to do.

Stupid is as Stupid doesn't See
I may be the only person in the western world who didn't get worked up over the recent Vogue cover featuring NBA star LeBron James and supermodel Giselle Bundchen. In fact, I didn't even make a connection to the King Kong image until someone pointed it out to me. (That someone being our deparment chair, "Mr. Magazine," Dr. Samir Husni, who has been quoted on this issue in just about every media outlet in North America).
The cover has received much criticism (and more here) for its seemingly animalistic portrayal of James, and JSM contributor Marie Hardin has some issues with the picture in her blog.
Maybe it's my personal perspective and/or background, but to me this seems like a media-generated controversy (in more ways than one). Yes, Vogue put the image on the cover, but there were plenty of other photos of LeBron and Giselle featured in the spread. If anyone has the right to be offended it's LeBron James, but he has said publicly that he doesn't find anything wrong with the picture.
I guess there are two camps on this issue--one who looks at an image and sees racial insensitivity and another that looks at an image and sees a basketball player with a supermodel. Put me in the latter.
The SI Vault
Given the unlimited space available on the Internet, I've often wondered why media companies could not (or would not) make all their historical archives available to the public. There are obvious questions about the labor involved and the economic angle, but there are plenty of benefits as well. (One notable exception is the New York Times, which offers limited archival information going back to 1851).
Sports Illustrated has taken a big step in this direction with the creation of the SI Vault, which is a complete record of every SI issue going back to the first one in 1954. That includes articles, covers and photos. The site is laid out so you can pick and choose what you want to see, but it's also possible to browse an entire single issue page by page, including original advertisements.
JSM applauds the effort and hopes it encourages other sports content providers to do the same. Imagine if the NFL made available on the Internet the original broadcasts of league games (and not just the ones from two or three years ago, but how about the Ice Bowl or the 1958 Colts-Giants game? Some games are available on YouTube, such as Super Bowl X).
Congratulations to SI for taking this step, which should be a big help to researchers in sports media, and especially those whose focus is history or content analysis.

Forum on Sports and Social Change
The following comes from Eli Wolff at Northeastern University regarding the Forum for Sports and Social Change. For more information the website address is listed, along with his contact information.
On behalf of the Center for the Study of Sport in Society, we would like to cordially invite you to the first Power of Sport Summit: A Participatory Forum on Sport and Social Change on June 14th and 15th, 2008 to be held at Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts.
The Summit will be an interactive meeting of academics, practitioners and advocates working together to define and address current and emerging issues involving the intersection of sport and social justice. The objective of the Summit is to generate discussion around current trends, including what's working, what's possible, and what important actions are needed to help advance the sport and social change movement. All those interested in the intersection of sport and social justice are invited to attend and participate in the Power of Sport Summit, where experts in the fields of research, education and advocacy will unite to celebrate, reinvigorate and advance this very important work. All participants will be vital contributors able to share their expertise. Coaches, program managers, athletes and activists, both youth and adult, will be among those whose tangible experiences are key components in understanding the vital intersection of sport and social justice. The Power of Sport Summit marks the conclusion of a year of innovative research carried out by Sport in Society's inaugural team of Research Fellows. Their research activities cut across disciplines and demonstrate the powerful connection between sport and social change. Due to the breadth and depth of possible topics, the Power of Sport Summit will combine interactive breakout sessions led by Sport in Society's Research Fellows with "Open Space Technology" (OST) working groups. Rather than concretely define all topics and presenters in advance, participants will also take active roles as self-organizers, setting the agenda for a collaborative working meeting. This dual structure offers participants an opportunity to learn about the latest trends and research currently advancing the sport and social change movement, while also allowing unforeseen topics to emerge and ensuring that the best outcomes are everyone's to create. These working sessions are intended to foster concrete action steps that can make a valuable impact in a variety of ways.
For more information regarding the Summit, including event details and the use of Open Space Technology, registration information and visitor information, please visit the event website.
Any questions may be directed to my attention.

Wish I could say I did something productive over spring break, but such is not the case. But I thoroughly enjoyed a week of sleeping in late and not keeping up with things at the office. I was even too lazy to drive down to our town square and hang out with Fox's Shepard Smith, who was in town for the Mississippi primary.
Lots of stuff to catch up on this week, including some advance pub for the College Sports Research Institute conference in Memphis, April 16-19. This link can give you more information on times, schedules and presentations.
The CSRI is also starting a scholarly journal called the Journal of Issues in Intercollegiate Athletics. It's a peer-reviewed journal, which at this point appears to be totally online. Submission guidelines are available at the website and the first article has already been posted. As someone familiar with trying to start at academic journal, good luck to CSRI Director Richard Southall and journal editor Kevin Burke.
CFP: New Directions in Communications and Sport
We're supposed to get 1-3" inches of snow and ice here this afternoon, so what better time for spring break? We'll be off all next week, but if I get the urge I'll continue to post. I'm sure our other contributors can help fill the void.
A note before leaving--The Electronic Journal of Communication has announced a special issue focusing on New Directions in Communication and Sport (Volume 19, 2009). The intention is to assess where sport research and communication currently exists, and to forecast areas of research that will merit additional and future attention from communication scholars. The special issue will be comprised of essays that review particular topics or issues pertaining to communication and sport which remain underexplored.
Deadline for submissions is September 1, 2008. For more information contact editor Jeff Kassing at jkassing@asu.edu or by phone at 602-543-6631.
More Sports on the Hill
So far this year, Congress has held hearings on baseball (several), Spygate, and, once again, the NFL Network-Cable Operator debate. Yesterday, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, ESPN President George Bodenheimer, executives from Time Warner and Directv, and policy analysis from non-profit organizations testified before the Telecommunications subcommittee of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. The topic? "Competition in the Sports Programming Marketplace".
As usual, nothing was resolved. Goodell asked Congress to crack down on cable operators (namely, Time Warner and Comcast) who refuse to carry the NFL Network on a basic sports tier in favor of networks in which they have an equity stake. The cable operators shot back asking Congress to force the NFL Network to offer its Sunday Ticket package to all consumers, not just Directv.
And so it goes. These type of hearings have become commonplace recently in Washington, D.C.
Senate Commerce Committee (March 27, 2007)
Senate Judiciary Committee (Dec. 7, 2006)
Senate Judiciary Committe (Nov. 14, 2006)
I attended the Sport and Recreation Law Association conference last weekend in Myrtle Beach, S.C. Dr. Mark Nagel of the Univ. of South Carolina and Jennifer Gibbs, a law student at Emory, presented on some of the current regulatory issues facing the cable industry, focusing on the bundling aspect. It's good to see some academic discussion beginning to surface on this issue.
I have come full circle on this. Neither side is right, yet both sides are right. I understand why Goodell wants Congress to breakup the monopoly power that cable companies have in a given market. I understand why cable operators want Congress to dissolve the exclusive arrangement between the NFL and Directv for Sunday Ticket.
But, it strikes me that the carriage issue (topic of yesterday's hearing) is best left to the marketplace to decide. Fans who really want to watch the NFL Network should switch to satellite (if they can. I know a view of the southern sky is required). Fans who cannot switch and cannot receive the NFL Network should press the marketplace to find alternatives, such as Verizon's FIOS, to deliver video content into their homes.
The solution to this problem is not for Congress to step in and regulate. It is for the markets to sort it out. If the NFL Network (or Big Ten Network or any other governing body-owned entity) or the cable operators find they are losing money or customers, they will adjust their business models. It is what markets do. This debate is too young (18 months) for Congress to step in and regulate. The markets have not had a chance to work it out.

Help needed: Survey on Sports Images
The following comes from a student at Quinnipiac University asking for help on a research study related to sports images. The survey only takes a few minutes, so help out if you can.
My name is Jared Zeidman and I'm a senior Media Studies major at Quinnipiac University. Last semester, I conducted a research study that examined racial and ethnic stereotypes of sports-related images (mascots and athletes) in media texts. I found a significant difference between responses from sports fans and non-fans. The overwhelming majority of participants that identified themselves as sports fans saw little to no issue in any of the images. Meanwhile, more than 75% of the non-fans who participated felt that the images were offensive and or racist.
This semester, I am expanding my study. Here is a link to the survey I have developed. My goal now is to collect significantly more responses from people around the country. Please ask your students if they have a few minutes to set aside and carefully respond to the survey. It would certainly be of great assistance to me. I would like to begin compiling results by March 16th.
In advance, I thank you for your assistance,
Jared W. Zeidman
What's at "Play" this issue?
I subscribe to only one newspaper and it arrives one day each week - the Sunday New York Times. It is too bad that only once every four months Play Magazine arrives with it. Great writing and unique perspectives on sports. It's a refreshing break from much of the drivel of today's Cold Pizza sports media. This issue's highlights include:
Joe Nocera writing about why owners of lousy pro sports teams refuse to sell and Jonathan Mahler writing "Oedipus Bronx," a profile of the Steinbrenner family.
But the article of interest to many of the readers of this space should be Bryan Curtis's analysis of the Rick Reilly from SI to ESPN and Dan Patrick from ESPN to SI "trade." Curtis discusses how each will contribute to multiple platforms (.com, magazine, radio) and offers the following observation at the end of the article:
"the Web has changed something about the essential nature of sports journalism. For the better part of a century, we sports fans lived in a media universe ruled by swaggering, outsize voices — from Royko to Reilly, from Howard Cosell to Dan and Keith. But the stars of the new frontier, the Web, are not what we would recognize as general opiners so much as experts on particular niches: statistics, college recruiting, major-league farm systems and other forms of advanced sports studies. of ESPN.com's John Hollinger, fantasy savants like Matthew Berry, gossip outposts like Deadspin and the Big Lead, recruiting gurus at Rivals.com. (A notable exception is Simmons, a general columnist with broad reach.) ... The Web is not, at its heart, a place for nihilistic attitude-mongering but something that feels more like sports academia. In the face of all these bits of information, Patrick and Reilly, of course, are offering up what is essentially shtick. You can lead a sports fan to a smart-alecky, middle-aged white guy, but can you make him pay attention?"
Sports academia?! Clearly there are many reputable "sports academia" web sites (e.g. Sports Law Blog, Sports Economist, maybe even this one). However, I would argue the sports Web feels more like bar debates, fan forums, and gossip than academia. Don't get me wrong, I love Deadspin and The Big Lead as much as anyone (must reads for my RSS feed), but I do not consider them academic and it strikes me that Curtis does. I think they perform an important function as a quasi watchdog of sports media and frequently they alert me to things I would not otherwise have paid attention to.
I think Curtis's best observation was earlier in his column, where he stated:
"What looks like a small masterpiece on the back page of Sports Illustrated might seem somehow smaller on the Internet. But where some of us gaze at the Web and see a delightfully shaggy form of journalism, Reilly sees too many sloppy, overly indulgent meditations."
Perhaps so, Rick. But that seems to be what people want right now and what seems to be working. I understand why traditional mainstream media resist the Web and blogging (it runs counter to their education and upbringing), but it does not appear this new form of sports journalism is losing momentum.

Super Smash Bros. 3DS/Wii U Roster Potentially Leaked
It looks like there's been a huge leak in the Smash Bros. space. If the leaks below are legit, the entire roster may have been preemptively revealed for the crossover fighter.
The leak contains pictures of the game's character selection screen [found on NeoGAF], which has many unannounced characters such as newcomers Bowser Jr., the Dog from Duck Hunt and Shulk from Xenoblade. Returning characters seen in the leak include Ness and Ganondorf.
Other than the pictures of the select screen, some convincing videos from the 3DS version of the game containing Bowser Jr. and Shulk were posted to YouTube, adding more fuel to the fire that Smash Bros. roster may have been unveiled in one fell swoop.
The leaker from NeoGAF also states that veterans Wolf, Ice Climbers, Snake and Lucas will be added into the game as DLC, alongside the Chorus Men from Rhythm Heaven.
Super Smash Bros. for 3DS is coming out on October 3rd, and the Wii U version will come sometime after this Holiday season. Nintendo recently revealed the reason for the Wii U version's release date coming after the handheld version.
For more on both versions of the game, check out our preview from this year's E3.
