The Seattle Sounders secured their second road win of the season on Tuesday with a convincing 3-1 victory over the Colorado Rapids. Clint Dempsey recorded a brace and gave the Sounders the lead just six minutes into the match with a neat left-footed finish from 12 yards out. It only took 17 seconds to go from the hands of Stefan Frei to the back of Tim Howards net in a clinical counterattack. Dempsey will rightfully get the credit, as will Joevin Jones, who tallied his sixth assist of the season, but Nicolas Lodeiro catalyzed the entire sequence with his impetus in attack and finished it with his off-the-ball movement in front of goal. After Marlon Hairston crossed in a ball from the left side of the field that Frei snagged, Frei unleashed a long outlet pass. Lodeiro received it in traffic, and after playing through an advantage call on a foul, he nutmegged Bismark Boateng and immediately turned up field. Lodeiro picked out left winger Jones, who was already sprinting into acres of space. Rather than sit back while Jones attacked, Lodeiro made a half-field run in support. When Jones was roughly 30 yards from goal, there were four defenders … Continue reading →

January 21, 2005: Police in East Moline, Illinois, got a call from a man named Tony Reynolds. His daughter Adrianne was missing. According to Adriannes father, the 16-year-old hadnt come home after school that afternoon, or shown up for her after-school job at a local fast-food restaurant. He told Snapped on Oxygen: I knew immediately something was wrong, because she didnt go to work. She loved going to work. Shed get ready an hour before she was supposed to be there. Her boss said she would never miss work. She was a dependable kid. Adrianne Reynolds had recently moved up to Illinois from Texas, just a couple months earlier. Her classmates, Cory Gregory and Sarah Kolb, were the last ones to be seen with her. Like Adrienne, Sarah Kolb knew what it was like to be the new kid in town. She was born into a military family that traveled all over the world. Sarah was trying to find her identity, and she found solace in the horror-themed hip-hop group called the Insane Clown Posse. She and Cory met and become friends a year earlier, after meeting at a local mall and sharing a joint. They were inseparable. It was … Continue reading →

Welcome to the Anatomy of a Goal, where each week we dissect one goal (or near goal) from the previous weeks Columbus Crew SC match. For match 19 of the 2017 MLS Season, we take a look at Hector Villalbas 64th minute goal that put Atlanta United up 2-0 as part of their win over Crew SC on Saturday. Here is a look at the finish from the Atlanta winger. Though Columbus dominated possession for much of the first half, the team never really threatened Atlanta. Usually possession oriented, the Five Stripes were happy to lose the possession battle with the Black and Gold, instead focusing on long balls into open spaces. Just like Nathaniel Marhefka predicted in his lineup preview, Atlanta exploited the space vacated by Crew SCs attack-minded right winger and right fullback. Villalbas second goal is a direct result of the Five Stripes getting into the vacant space on the Columbus defensive right. As usual, Nate absolutely nailed his focal area when he said to expect a tug-of-war between [Harrison] Afful and [Ethan] Finlay for Crew SC & [Yamil] Asad and [Greg] Garza for Atlanta United. Atlantas second goal begins with their No. 10, Miguel Almiron, receiving … Continue reading →

Several students traveled from far and wide to explore the human body at N.C. Wesleyan Colleges first offering of the Human Body and Disease Camp. While the camp may be too intense for everyone, the students who attended the camp seemed fascinated with the opportunity to dissect rats, sheep brains and pig hearts. Dr. Dan Stovall, who served as the instructor for the camp, said the students also went to the planetarium at the Imperial Centre to learn more about how space affects human physiology. While the camp was offered on the campus of N.C. Wesleyan College in Rocky Mount, most of the students came from places outside the Twin Counties. Rising high school senior Austin Strickland, who lives in Goldsboro, said he came to the camp because he wants to be a surgeon, and this camp offered something new. I have never seen a camp like this before, Strickland said. The price of the camp was a $415, a figure that seems pricey compared to many other summer day camps in the area. However, considering the camp earned students a college credit, the price may be considered a bargain. Stovall teaches a number of classes related to the human … Continue reading →

The Seattle Sounders stole a dramatic road point against the Portland Timbers last Sunday in what was their arguably their best effort of the season. Down a man and a goal for the entire second half, substitute Clint Dempsey headed home an equalizer in the 94th minute to stun Providence Park. The entire sequence, though Roman Torres pinpoint cross to Dempsey, Dempseys towering header and the unlikeliest of goals did not matriculate from nothing. What led to the Sounders game-tying tally was a seemingly inconspicuousdefensive play by Cristian Roldan on Dairon Asprilla. Nearing the end of the 93rd minute, the Timbers cleared the ball from their own 18-yard-box and found Asprilla in open space on the left side of the pitch. Desperate for an equalizer, the Sounders had thrown almost everyone forward, which in turnleft Asprilla and Fanendo Adi in a 2-on-2 situation with Nouhou and a retreating Roldan. Rather than sprinting back aimlessly, Roldan defended with purpose, coming in goalside on an angle behind Asprilla. When Asprilla finally receivedthe ball, his options were limited because of Roldans positioning. Asprilla turnedand facedbackward, attempting to hold up the ball in search of a teammate. He never gets the chance to find … Continue reading →

Left, Gabriella Boyds Very inadequately dressed I am making my way from a ground floor flat up the stairs to a higher floor 2015; and, right, Untitled (Woman with Black Line) by Jo Ann Callis. Composite: Courtesy: the artists and Folio Society/Freud's Interpreting Dreams/White Cube; Rose Gallery The word surrealism was coined by the poet Apollinaire a century ago, and refers above all to an art of juxtaposition, the concatenation of shockingly disparate elements, shorn of context, with the slippery, succinct logic of a bad dream. Little wonder it was Merriam-Websters word of 2016, owing to above average online searches. Early surrealists sought to plunder unconscious forces; inevitably, sex was the main energy supplier. What this meant in practice was a prevalence of womens bodies, appropriated and dismembered. Voiceless, limbless, headless, the surrealist woman reaches her apogee in Magrittes The Rape, in which a face is formed from a torso, with breasts for eyes and a pubic grin. This isnt to say that female artists havent found surrealism a productive field to plough, as the dizzyingly beautiful Dreamers Awake makes clear. A sublime survey of more than 50 female artists, from Dorothea Tanning and Louise Bourgeois to Hannah Wilke and … Continue reading →

Rob Savidge just didn't think it would be much of a problem. A project manager for the Anne Arundel County Department of Public Works, he gave the go-ahead to make repairs on storm drain inlets on Forest Drive at Bay Ridge Avenue in Annapolis starting at 8 a.m. April 4. The result came as a surprise for Savidge, but perhaps even more for thousands of motorists stuck in gridlock memorable even in a part of the city known for traffic jams. On a bright sunny morning they found themselves stuck for more than an hour at the confluence of Hillsmere Drive, Bay Ridge Road, Bay Ridge Avenue and Forest Drive because someone didn't realize the impact of shutting down lanes in rush hour. "That's the most frustrating part of all of this," said Savidge, now a candidate for City Council in the ward next to the intersection. "At the time, I was following the procedures that I was aware of. "Just, unfortunately, a lot of things came together." Documents released to The Capital under a series of Maryland Public Information Act requests show city and county officials searched for hours on the morning of April 4 to explain what seemed … Continue reading →

DEAR ABBY: I recently had to spend a night in the hospital following minor surgery. One of the female techs taking care of me leaned over me to straighten out the bedding and I could see "everything" when the top of her scrubs fell open. I'm not sure if it was on purpose or by accident. I say this because after the first time, it happened several more times. I only looked the first time out of shock. The other times, I looked away. Other than saying, "Hey, lady, I can see your boobies when you bend over," what's the polite way to say, "Oops - wardrobe malfunction"? - Got An Eyeful in Illinois DEAR GOT AN EYEFUL: Since, with luck, you won't have to make another visit to the hospital, I think your question may be moot. However, the discreet way to deal with something like that would be to mention what happened to the head nurse or supervisor and say that it made you uncomfortable. Secrets in her past could taint your future DEAR ABBY: I'm in my early 30s and recently met a very attractive woman my age. We are planning to get married. She wants us … Continue reading →

Why do we man hug? Is it simply to fill the gap left by the now pass formality of the all-purpose handshake? Or do we bro hug for some more profound,evolutionary reason;amammalian urge to be squeezed that,liberated fromold fashionedgender conventions,has risen like a phoenix from the ashes in the playbook of male behaviours? The short answer is: nobody knows.Man hugging remains ariddlewrapped in a mysteryinside an enigma, and searching for itscausation is probablythe social and biologicalsciences' next great frontier; theirFermat's last theorum, or Pandora's box. Perhaps we'll never solve it, but what wecanhope to decipheris just how to go about achieving a good one. And by good one we mean a hug that doesn't leave you feeling like a twonk in front of an assembled crowd of onlookers. Indian Prime MinisterNarendra Modi and U.S President Donald Trump made a splash yesterday by going full throttle with a no-holds-barred man hug during a joint press conference.
