COMMERCE CITY, Colo. Dion Dawkins Bills Jersey . -- A defensive approach is beginning to pay dividends for the Colorado Rapids. "We always knew that we had to be a good defence," coach Oscar Pareja said. "We knew that if we played good defence, we would find ways to score goals." The blueprint was in play in a 2-0 win over Chivas USA on Saturday night. "Our defence was one of our weaknesses we had last year," Pareja said. "What we put in our players minds was that we needed to defend better, be solid defensively and the goals would come." Atiba Harris scored in the 11th minute and Nathan Sturgis added a late goal for Colorado (5-4-4), which extended its unbeaten streak to five matches (3-0-2). "Defence is what you build your team off of," Sturgis said. "You try to finish (your scoring chances) and the last couple of games we have put teams away." The Rapids are unbeaten in six home games against Chivas USA, and have eight wins and two ties in their last 10 against the Los Angeles club overall since losing on March 21, 2009. Rapids goalkeeper Clint Irwin is 5-2-4 with five shutouts since taking over for injured Matt Pickens, who is out several months because of a broken right forearm. Chivas USA (3-6-2) has been outscored 13-1 in four straight losses. "Weve had a lot of roster moves to make and these arent my players," said Chivas coach Jose Luis Sanchez Sola. "One player plays a 4-4-2 and another plays a different system and it will take time." Neither team had a shot on goal until Christopher Klute found Harris behind the defence in the 11th minute. The defences dominated play for most of opening half. Chivas USAs offence came alive over a seven-minute stretch, getting free for several shots. Gabriel Farfan broke free from just outside the penalty box, but had his shot sail into the stands in the 22nd minute. Bobby Burlings shot went off the side of the goal and Farfan had a shot easily handled by Irwin, who made only one save in the half. Colorado was aggressive enough to draw fouls and two yellow cards in the waning moments of the half. Scoring chances remained at a premium in the second half. Deshorn Brown broke free for a shot that was deflected wide of the right post in the 56th minute Irwin made an easy save on a shot by Eric Avila in the 69th. Brown set up Sturgis goal in the 78th minute. The win completed a season series sweep by the Rapids, who also won the April 13th meeting 1-0. "We have given up too many goals in as many weeks and it hasnt been good for us," Burling said. "It is a tough stretch and only the people in the locker room can change it."

CHICAGO -- Kyrie Irving scored 13 points, DeMarcus Cousins powered a dominant performance in the paint, and the United States pulled away from Venezuela for an ugly 80-45 exhibition victory Friday night. Roli Pereira de Sa Jersey .Coming off three straight flashy victories in Las Vegas and California, the United States shot 42.4 percent from the field and committed 13 turnovers in by far its worst offensive performance of its five-city tour in preparation for next weeks Rio de Janeiro Olympics. But the Americans used their superior athleticism to limit Venezuela to 24 percent shooting and owned the interior with a 54-29 rebounding advantage.Returning to Chicago for the first time with the U.S. national team, Bulls star Jimmy Butler was cheered every time he was announced at the United Center. He had four points and eight rebounds in 21 minutes in his first start with Team USA.Butler had one of the few electric plays for the U.S. when he ran out on the break and dunked Kyle Lowrys tip pass in the fourth quarter. DeAndre Jordan also had a vicious dunk off a lob from Kevin Durant, and DeMar DeRozan drew chants of USA! USA! with a windmill jam in the final minutes.Klay Thompson also scored 13 points, and Cousins finished with seven points and 12 rebounds. Durant had nine points of 3-of-9 shooting.John Cox scored 14 points for Venezuela, which will play the U.S. again on Aug. 8 in the Olympics.Irving and company were greeted with a round of hearty cheers when they came out for pregame warmups. Fans lined the side of the court where the Americans had their layup line, and Anthony and Durant posed for pictures with a couple of eager boys.Before Butlers introduction drew the most applause of the night, former Chicago coach Tom Thibodeau received a thunderous ovation when he was announced with the U.S. coaching staff. Thibodeau took a year off after he was fired by the Bulls in May 2015, and then was hired as Minnesotas coach and president of basketball operations in April.The star power also extended to the sideline near the U.S. bench, where former Olympians Scottie Pippen and Dwyane Wade watched the action attentively. Wade was joined by his wife, actress Gabriel Union, hours after he held his introductory press conference for his new contract with his hometown Bulls.Pippen played on the 1992 Dream Team that rolled to gold in Barcelona, and also helped the U.S. win gold in 1996.

At long, long last, its true: Either the Chicago Cubs or Cleveland Indians will win the World Series.The matchup between teams that forever waited till next year -- next century, really -- is finally here.A classic Fall Classic, for sure.Do-it-all Javier Baez, flashy Francisco Lindor, MVP caliber Kris Bryant and a bevy of young stars. Lights-out relievers Andrew Miller and Aroldis Chapman, and wily skippers Joe Maddon and Terry Francona.Plus, intrigue if injured All-Star starter Danny Salazar and slugger Kyle Schwarber can play.Oh, and did someone mention something about a drought?Game 1 is at Progressive Field on Tuesday night, with the Cubs opening as a heavy favorite to win their first crown since 1908.In the Cubs last visit to Cleveland, back in August 2015, they posted a 17-0 rout for the most-lopsided shutout ever in interleague play. It got so out of hand that two Indians outfielders wound up pitching.But thats ancient history.For the Cubbies, this is their first World Series trip since 1945. They clinched their spot Saturday night at rollicking Wrigley Field as big league ERA leader Kyle Hendricks outpitched Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw for a 5-0 win in Game 6 of the NL Championship Series.Favorites since opening day, Anthony Rizzo, Addison Russell and past October aces Jon Lester and John Lackey helped the Cubs cruise to a major league-leading 103 victories.Now, theyre ready to sweep aside the Curse of the Billy Goat and the specter of Steve Bartman. And make up for the near-misses by Cubs greats such as Ernie Banks, Ron Santo and Billy Williams.Obviously we know that its something thats going to be talked about with the history of the organization, pitcher Jake Arrieta said. But its really not something we focus on at all. So we just kind of disregard it and go out and play.The Indians also have a past full of failure and frustration. Their title drought dates to Bob Feller, Lou Boudreau, Larry Doby and 1948, trailing only the Cubs for the longest wait in the majors.In 1997, Cleveland wwas three outs from winning the championship when closer Jose Mesa blew a one-run lead in the bottom of the ninth inning of Game 7 at Florida. Wayne Simmonds Jersey. An error by sure-handed second baseman Tony Fernandez doomed them in the 11th.Earlier this year, LeBron James and the Cavaliers turned Cleveland into Believeland by rallying to win the NBA title. James has been loudly cheering for the Indians to bring another championship to the city.Steady Jason Kipnis, jolly Mike Napoli and likely Game 1 starter Corey Kluber starred as the surprising Indians won the AL Central, then breezed by Boston and Toronto in the playoffs.The Indians did it despite a thinning rotation. Salazar hasnt pitched since early September because of a forearm problem, Carlos Carrascos hand was broken by a line drive and Trevor Bauer cut his pinkie playing with a drone.Like the Cubs with Bartman, the spectator who infamously deflected a foul ball at Wrigley during the 2003 NL playoffs, the Indians also have a prominent fan. Its John Adams, the man who has been beating a drum at most every home game for more than four decades.Even though the clubs hold spring training about 30 miles apart in Arizona, they dont overlap a lot.Theyve never played in the postseason and are just 9-9 against each other in interleague action.Miller and Chapman, however, were teammates this season in the New York Yankees bullpen before they both got traded in late July.Francona and current Cubs architect Theo Epstein spent even more time together. In 2004, they teamed up as the Red Sox ended a World Series championship drought dating to 1918 -- when Boston beat the Cubs, by the way.Soon, another city will be celebrating. Maybe next week, maybe next month, with Game 7 scheduled for Nov. 2.A pair of big cities, one on Lake Michigan, the other on Lake Erie, waiting ... and hoping to end the wait.On deck: Great Lakes, great stakes.

one a scholarship winner and another knifed to death
A furniture van delivered a new lounge suite, a lone youngster kicked a ball against the fence of the dilapidated football pitch, cleaners moved through the streets chatting cheerfully.
But in Lorraine Jones's hallway, the news that her neighbour, 24 year old Ogarra Dixon, known as Gora, had been shot on the estate the night before arrived like a bombshell.
Lorraine urgently dispatched her son's friend, Jason, to King's College Hospital to get news of Gora's condition and kept calling him, asking: "Are you there yet? What do they say?"
But the hospital wouldn't divulge. "Police are talking to the family," Jason reported back.
Lorraine was determined to stay positive, but as updates poured in, her head slowly drooped. "It seems the rumours are true," she said softly. "I've just had it confirmed. Gora has passed away."
This was my third day on Angell Town in Brixton where I had come to witness life on an estate, but had instead been plunged into the aftermath of a death.
I had met Gora briefly through Lorraine at 6ft 7in, he was hard to miss. And my thoughts turned to his younger brother Timon, who I had met too, and who had told me about his campaign to upgrade the rundown football pitch at the heart of the estate.
Amid the grief, I got to see the resilience of the people of Angell Town: in particular, the inspirational strength of the mothers and the power of the community to pull together.
For Lorraine, 42, Gora's killing revived painful memories of her 20 year old son Dwayne's fatal stabbing on Angell Town last year.
Yet as rumours of a "gang hit" swirled, her concern was for others the safety of the young people and fears they would retaliate. She went out and spoke to them: "Boys, I know there is a lot of anger, but I don't want you to do nothing. We gonna deal with this the right way."
Later that day it emerged that no rival gang was involved and that Gora had apparently been shot after an argument that took place on the estate two blocks from where I was staying.
The post mortem examination found he had been shot in the chest soon after midnight.
It seemed that the Standard photographers, Matt Writtle and Kiran Mensah, had been among the last to see Gora alive.
They had left where I was staying the previous night and passed him on the street as they walked to the Tube at 11pm. Kiran, who has family on Angell Town, knew Gora and exchanged greetings.
Out on the estate, the news that the alleged killer and the victim were both from Angell Town was received like a double bereavement.
Single mother Kamika Nathan, 36, said: "We've let down another two of our children. We have to look at ourselves as adults and role models and use this terrible moment to turn a corner."
Kathy Bennett, 54, who has lived on the estate since she was six and brought up three children there, said: "We got a good community here, we all know each other. I have never been robbed, my kids have never had any trouble, yet there is this violence.
"It is like we are our own worst enemy. It breaks my heart. I've racked my brains for what to do. Nobody knows how to stop it."
Lorraine spent the day comforting crying children and distraught mothers who turned to her for support.
She had positive things to focus on too like a champagne reception at the independent Royal Russell School in Croydon where her 16 year old son Malachi had won a scholarship. "I feel so proud of him," she said. "In the midst of death, we have to celebrate life. We will get through this."
Butthe drama for the day wasn't over. Later I found myself in the middle of an armed stop on the estate by specialist police brandishing Heckler and Koch assault rifles.
Officers, accompanied by undercover detectives, jumped out replica birkin handbags and handcuffed Hugh, 20, who had been talking to a group of friends on the street.
He protested that he was a business economics undergraduate with no criminal record and that he had done nothing wrong, but a CCTV camera operator situated on a remote site had zoomed in and picked him out passing this information to the police who arrived within minutes.
A crowd formed. Tension rose. One eight year old boy looked at the cordon of Hermes bag season with the main color coordination police silently pointing guns at the community, sucked his teeth and said: "What YOU looking at?" The children of Golda Mochia, my first host, were there, too. Many of these children had seen police raids before and had become hardened to them.
Meanwhile the police checked the young man's replica hermes bag identity, realised they had collared the wrong person and left.
The next day I saw a different side to police engagement when Lambeth Borough Commander Richard Wood visited Lorraine to take the Hermes birkin bags fake temperature of the community and pay respects to Gora's parents if Lorraine thought the time was right. The Borough Commander had visited Lorraine after her son's death last year and the two had begun to build a warm, trusting relationship.
"The majority of people here are law abiding but we've got this violent crime we need to stop." Lorraine thanked him for coming down and said plainly: "Thing is, Richard, there is nowhere for our young people to go on Angell Town. Our youth need a place to meet, a community centre, they need to see some investment made in them.
"We are burying our children on one side of the wall and on the other side, the yuppies are having the time of their lives. This is London, not Afghanistan. It shouldn't be a war zone but for us, it is."
Her head sagged momentarily. "Truth is, Commander, it feels like a battle between good and evil. I have been working with 20 young people to develop a plan to lift up our estate through boxing and jobs and yet on the other hand we have gang members getting up to no good.
A furniture van delivered a new lounge suite, a lone youngster kicked a ball against the fence of the dilapidated football pitch, cleaners moved through the streets chatting cheerfully.
But in Lorraine Jones's hallway, the news that her neighbour, 24 year old Ogarra Dixon, known as Gora, had been shot on the estate the night before arrived like a bombshell.
Lorraine urgently dispatched her son's friend, Jason, to King's College Hospital to get news of Gora's condition and kept calling him, asking: "Are you there yet? What do they say?"
But the hospital wouldn't divulge. "Police are talking to the family," Jason reported back.
Lorraine was determined to stay positive, but as updates poured in, her head slowly drooped. "It seems the rumours are true," she said softly. "I've just had it confirmed. Gora has passed away."
This was my third day on Angell Town in Brixton where I had come to witness life on an estate, but had instead been plunged into the aftermath of a death.
I had met Gora briefly through Lorraine at 6ft 7in, he was hard to miss. And my thoughts turned to his younger brother Timon, who I had met too, and who had told me about his campaign to upgrade the rundown football pitch at the heart of the estate.
Amid the grief, I got to see the resilience of the people of Angell Town: in particular, the inspirational strength of the mothers and the power of the community to pull together.
For Lorraine, 42, Gora's killing revived painful memories of her 20 year old son Dwayne's fatal stabbing on Angell Town last year.
Yet as rumours of a "gang hit" swirled, her concern was for others the safety of the young people and fears they would retaliate. She went out and spoke to them: "Boys, I know there is a lot of anger, but I don't want you to do nothing. We gonna deal with this the right way."
Later that day it emerged that no rival gang was involved and that Gora had apparently been shot after an argument that took place on the estate two blocks from where I was staying.
The post mortem examination found he had been shot in the chest soon after midnight.
It seemed that the Standard photographers, Matt Writtle and Kiran Mensah, had been among the last to see Gora alive.

or creativity will be destroyed
David Lowery, the frontman for the bands Camper Van Beethoven and Cracker, has become perhaps the most assertive and polarizing figure in the movement for musicians' rights in the Internet age. Between his appearances onstage leading his bands both of which recently toured speaking to the business of music classes he teaches at the University of Georgia, and the blog he helps run, the Trichordist, Lowery works to stop the exploitation of artists. Sometimes, he's downright angry. "Once the cobra bit me, I might as well just eat the cobra," he told the New York Times. This week he frustrated by the video for GoldieBlox, which makes toys for intellectually ambitious girls: The video shows the little tykes playing with an elaborate Rube Goldberg device, to the tune of the old Beasties song "Girls." The lyrics to a song that once celebrated girls for doing the dishes and laundry now describe them as building spaceships. A triumph for the self image of young females? Maybe, but since the Beastie Boys have a long and strong policy of not letting their work be used in advertising replica hermes bag something written into the will of Adam Yauch, who died last year it's a bit awkward. Doubly awkward is that GoldieBlox has sued the band in a declaratory judgment. (The two sides have since apparently come to agreement.)
Let's start with the Beastie Boys and their tussle with GoldieBlox. So: Were the Beasties ripped off here?
Yeah, I think they got ripped off. Let's back up. GoldieBlox appears to me to be a well lawyered Silicon Valley, angel funded start up.
This is not a feminist nonprofit.
It's a commercial business. Secondly, it's a parody. But if you're making a parody to sell a commercial product, you are to the left of the pirate party, if you're calling that fair use.
What makes a parody fair use?
Well, I'm not a lawyer, but I've played one on TV. But I'm 90 percent sure that I'm 90 percent righter than most people writing about this. A parody has to be about the song like, say, if you're parodying a song, then the parody is about the song that's the sole point of it. Not to sell a commercial product for a for profit company. So you don't take a parody of a song and sell Shell Oil, or you don't parody a song to, for instance, advocate some position that maybe the Koch brothers want to advocate or that George Soros wants to advocate. It has to be specific. The parody has to be about the song. Secondly, the other Hermes birkin bags fake thing about this that's been widely misreported is that the Beastie Boys are not suing GoldieBlox. GoldieBlox is preemptively suing the Beastie Boys. One of the guys is dead, and apparently in his will it stipulated to continue the policy of no commercial use of Beastie Boys songs they had a long standing policy.
We're talking about Adam Yauch here.
Yes. Right. And it's a band that's been pretty rigid, and it's kind of unusual compared to even '60s bands that claimed to be uncommercial and revolutionary. The Beastie Boys have been quite strict about replica birkin handbags not licensing their stuff and not letting it go commercials. So it's kind of ethically awkward or nasty as well.
Let's just zoom out a little bit to Silicon Valley in general. There's Silicon Valley and then there's a more radical, ideological version of Silicon Valley, and I think that's what we're dealing with here. This phrase gets bandied about called "permission less innovation." The idea is that you just do stuff without asking permission. In the down the rabbit hole never never land of Silicon Valley, they seem to present this unabashedly as if this were a good thing.
It's good for them. Commercially, it's good for them. Let's think about it. Silicon Valley, there's a part of it that has this notion of permission less innovation, that they treat this as a good thing, but think about this as a civilian. You put your photos on Instagram and then is permissionless innovation just using those photos without your permission? Is permissionless innovation just using whatever you might have written on the Web in any way that any commercial entity sees fit? That's largely what we're talking about here.
The bigger fight here is that if they can do this with our songs, with our lyrics, then they can do it with your Instagram photos, they can do it with your Facebook profile, they can do it with anything you put on your Web page without your permission. That's what permissionless innovation is. I don't think the majority of people want that.
It strikes me that the people preaching permissionless innovation are the same people who work very hard to patent their software and their algorithms and things like that.
Yes. But, on the other hand, "permissionless innovation" is a favorite phrase of Google, and you see them in all kinds of patent battles like their Motorola patents with other companies. So, I guess, the big corporations get to have different intellectual property rights than artists or people who use Instagram or something like that. Do we want a world like that?
With GoldieBlox, though, this is a company that says, "Oh, we're Kickstartering these girls' toys," but then they go and preemptively sue the Beastie Boys using a really big and powerful law firm. This isn't David and Goliath, but it's been represented that way. People need to pay attention here. Why do these things happen this way?
I think Silicon Valley has gotten a pass on this. Most companies in other industries have; you think about oil companies funding global warming sort of studies that cast doubts on global warming, things like that, that are subject to scrutiny. But I think Silicon Valley in general has gotten some sort of pass from the general public and the press in general on these kinds of issues. And the end goal is not they're not Camper Van Beethoven lyrics and they're not Beastie Boys songs the end goal here, the end zone is when they get your data: your Facebook photos, your Instagram photos. When they get to you and do that as they see fit. We're going to wake up in a world one day where we look back and say, "What fake hermes leather handbags the fuck were we thinking?"
Let's talk about lyrics, specifically about lyric websites. You've urged the shutdown of sites like Rap Genius I urged licensing.
Licensing, OK. There's been a shutdown order, I think.
I haven't done anything.
I'm talking about the NMPA.
But the NMPA has basically put websites that were from my list, from my study, sites that appear not to be fully licensed, that are using artists' work. I published that list and then the third time I sort of published it, the NMPA would take this list and basically tell these sites that they needed to become licensed, or, if they didn't become licensed, they would move to shut them down. I'm not personally urging this action.
The other side of the argument says that people have been trading lyrics, scrawling them down from the records for decades, this is fair use Why does this battle seem worth fighting to you?
These are commercial. All of the sites that are on my list appear to be commercial endeavors; they're making a profit, or they're attempting to make a profit, or they're raising venture capital. Rap Genius, which is at the top of the list, is a very popular site interesting site, I have to admit but they got $15 million of venture capital from Andreessen Horowitz, which is a venture capital firm in Silicon Valley. They obviously intend to make a profit if somebody's investing $15 million in them. If they're making a profit from our work, at the very least we should be asked permission to use the work. This is just about common decency, consent, any number of things that go along with what we normally think of our great just and fair society. That's what we're asking. If that involves paying a small royalty or a big royalty, let's work that out. Silicon Valley is to the left of the Pirate Party, apparently. Oddly enough.
One of the unlikeliest foes of the argument that people like you and David Byrne make is Dave Allen, who was the bassist for a Marxist rock band (Gang of Four), and once upon a time, I think, a critic of Spotify. What do you make of his point of view that musicians need to adjust to this brave new world, they need to start making revenues in new ways. Where does he seem to be coming from?
But we have adjusted. We are making revenues in new ways. I think he's an advertising executive. He's on the board of Cash Music, which admittedly accepts money from Google. I think he speaks from his commercial interests. I can't be sure, but to me it looks like he speaks from his commercial interests. Look, to call David Byrne a Luddite is ridiculous. David Byrne has been one of the most forward thinking, innovative artists of our generation. Just because his view or my view of how our technological future looks is different than David Allen, that doesn't mean you're against technology. We have differing views of the future, our future world, our future of how we use technology. One of the best books on this subject is "Freeloading" by Chris Ruen. He and others have pointed out that "Happy Birthday to You" is not in the public domain, it goes back to the 19th century, but it's going to be owned by Warner Bros. for years to come.

pilot technology ALIAS could replace pilot and save lives
Helicopter maker Sikorsky's chief autonomy engineer Igor Cherepinsky said it won't put pilots out of business, but it will "transform" them.
"Today's pilots spend a lot of their time making sure the aircraft is stable, it's going in the right direction, it's going the right replica hermes bag speed, obeying the laws of the air if you will, so ALIAS copilot can take care of all of that and free the human being to supervise and make sure that the bigger mission is running its course," Cherepinsky said.
"The first step is to let the pilots get used to the technology, reduce the crew, and show that we can do it safely with one pilot and get the pilot community used to that fact. And then we'll go from there," he said.
The technology is promising enough that the Defense Advance Research Project Agency (DARPA) is investing $57.5 million to make the digital co pilot a reality for replica hermes handbags military and commercial aircraft within the next decade.
During a demonstration, a chopper could be flown from a tablet on the ground, controlling the altitude and flight plan.
Because ALIAS is being developed with the military, CBS News was not allowed to show replica birkin handbags everything on the handheld, but Van Cleave said it only required a finger to move the aircraft.
Designers believe safeguards can be built into a digital co pilot to stop a repeat of the Germanwings crash, where a lone pilot intentionally flew an airliner into the ground.
"ALIAS can permit under the right circumstances, handing off the aircraft to an off board controller. To let somebody else, another human, fake hermes leather handbags help take control of the aircraft in the event of the emergency," DARPA program manager Dan Patt said.
