No one recalls JetBlue Airways captain Clayton Osbon coming unhinged
before. Not the airline that let him y for 12 years, the neighbors in his secluded water-
front community or the friends he tried selling weight-loss shakes to on the side. Now
federal prosecutors have charged Osbon following his bizarre unraveling aboard Flight 191
to Las Vegas, describing in court records a midair breakdown they say began with cockpit
ramblings about religion and ended with passengers wrestling him to the cabin oor.
Trayvon Martins family has seized on a police video of neighborhood watch
volunteer George Zimmerman, saying it does not show the injuries Zimmerman claims he
suffered before fatally shooting the unarmed black teenager. The 90-second video shows
police searching a handcuffed Zimmerman before he is led into the Sanford police depart-
ment. Zimmerman told police he shot Martin in self-defense. He said Martin attacked him
as he was walking back to his vehicle after pursuing the teen.
President Barack Obamas plea to Congress to end $4 billion in tax subsidies to
oil companies was rebuffed Thursday as the Senate turned back a Democratic bill to repeal
the tax breaks. Moments after Obama made his election-year appeal in the White House
Rose Garden, the Senate failed to get the necessary two-thirds vote to proceed to a measure
that would have ended the subsidies.
Egypts Muslim Brotherhood-led parliament began drawing up a no-con-
dence motion against the military-appointed government Thursday, further escalating
the Islamists increasingly public power struggle with the countrys ruling generals. The
Islamists were also squabbling with liberal and secular groups over the commission that is
to draw up the nations new constitution. After the Brotherhood took a clear majority on the
100-member body for itself, 25 other members resigned.
Israel on Thursday stepped up preparations a day before a series of planned
Arab protests, deploying thousands of troops and police across the country and along its
borders in anticipation of possible violence. On Friday, Israeli Arabs and Palestinians in
the West Bank and Gaza are marking Land Day, an annual protest against what they say are
discriminatory Israeli land policies.
Lawyers for a prominent environmental activist say he has been released from
an isolation unit at a federal prison and placed back into a minimum-security camp. Tim
DeChristopher, who is serving two years for fraudulently bidding on drilling leases near
Utahs national parks, called his supporters Thursday to say he was out of an isolation unit
at a federal prison in Herlong, Calif. Hes back in a nearby minimum-security camp with
full privileges after spending 20 days in the dock.
Republicans pleaded with President Barack Obama on Thursday to negotiate
with Congress to avert automatic, across-the-board military cuts that Defense Secretary
Leon Panetta has warned would be devastating. The reductions $50 billion in the rst
year and $492 billion over a decade wont kick in until January 2013, but lawmakers
argued that Congress and the Obama administration cant wait months to deal with the
issue.

The men of Provo were
attacked on several occa-
sions last year for their
fashion sense or lack
thereof. As Provos men
head into the real world for
internships and new jobs,
there are several minor
adjustments they can make
to improve.
GQ magazine ranked
Provo one of the worst-
dressed cities in the coun-
try, and then a few months
later GQ ranked BYU
males as some of the worst
dressed in the country.
Most of the criticism was
directed at Provo formal
wear or Sunday attire.
William Locklear, a fresh-
man political science major
from Knoxville, Tenn., said
he is fed up with GQ maga-
zines rankings.
Those rankings are
ridiculous, he said. I
think they are very biased.
But Locklear said all the
negativity isnt just coming
from outsiders, but from
within.
This guy on Twitter
@NiceTryZoob is starting
to bother me, he said. I
finally just stopped follow-
ing him. Obviously there
are some guys who could
use some help, but there are
stylish people in Provo too.
Im stylish, just look at what
Im wearing.
Daniel Bullock, a junior
exercise science major from
Westminster, Colo., said it is
important to beware of van-
ity, but also said it is impor-
tant to dress nice.
Im not saying spending
way too much money on
overpriced clothes is what
everyone should go out
and do, Bullock said. I
just think dressing a little
professional really makes a
difference.
Bullock said he believes
good church attire and styl-
ish formal wear are two
different things.
Look, on Sundays wear
your white shirt to church
because that is respectful,
Bullock said. But any other
time, invest in some color and
new patterns. Guys just need
to wear something they didnt
wear on their missions.
Christopher Hayes, a
senior animation major
from Atlanta, said he dis-
agrees with GQ magazine,
but believes up-to-date style
is important.
Looking good is not the
most important thing in
life, he said. As BYU stu-
dents we understand this bet-
ter than most. But we have
been taught to look our best.
I personally think staying
fashionable is important.
The ten commandments of mens formal fashion
Ten Commandments of
Mens Formal Fashion
from Mens Health Magazine article
Ten Commandments of Style
1. Get your suits tailored. Over-
sized suits are bad news.
2. Never wear sneakers with suits, unless you are
4 years old. Then you can get away with it.
3. Invest in a suitable time-piece. Its just classy.
4. Make sure your socks match your suit.
5. Put your wallet on a diet. Get the nonsense (receipts,
gift cards, candy wrappers, etc.) out of your wallet.
6. Wear brown shoes, it wins style points.
7. Go easy on the hair gel.
8. Throw away your cheap printed ties.
9. You dont have to wear a belt.
10. Dont wear ties that are too skinny. An ultra-
modern type guy might get away with it. But
otherwise keep it to about 3 inches in width.

The BYU softball team is on a
seven-game win streak head-
ing into this weekend, where
it will travel to Fresno to play
Fresno State in its second
WAC series.
BYU is currently 21-8 and
sitting atop the WAC stand-
ings, having swept New
Mexico State in a three-game
series last weekend. Fresno
State is tied with Hawaii for
second in the WAC standings,
with one loss to Nevada, and
is sporting a 22-13 record on
the season.
BYU and FSU played in
three of the same preseason
tournaments and faced
similar opponents in those
tournaments. Both BYU and
FSU beat Saint Josephs and
Charlotte in the preseason.
BYU beat multiple teams
that Fresno lost to, including
No. 15 Oregon, Purdue, Long
Beach State and Cal State
Northridge.
Both teams are similar
in season statistics as well.
The Cougars have scored 175
runs, have a .304 batting aver-
age and 25 home runs, while
the Bulldogs have scored 147
runs, have a .275 batting aver-
age and 27 home runs.
BYU has an all-time record
of 2-6 against FSU. The last
meeting between the teams
was last year as BYU lost
the game 7-3. The Cougars
fell behind and werent able
to regain control to beat the
Bulldogs.
Senior Delaney Willard
said she remembers the game
from last year and hopes to
come home with a different
outcome.
We lost that game and Im
pretty sure we lost it pretty
bad, Willard said. Im just
looking forward to the game
[this year] because I know
that theyre great competi-
tion and theyre a good team.
They are the kind of team
that we have to beat if we
want to make it further into
the tournament this year so I
think its going to be a really
good challenge for our hitters
and for the pitchers.
Willard is continuing to
be a force at the plate this
season. She is one of only two
players ranked in the top 11
in the nation in batting aver-
age, RBIs per game, slugging
percentage, on base percent-
age, home runs per game
and home runs. She was also
one of ve players nationally
recently cited to the ESPN
Player of the Year watch out.
Willard said she has got-
ten this far because of her
hard work and dedication
to the game she loves, not to
mention a team to back her
up.
Its always good to know
when you put a lot of time
and effort into something,
you get the results you
want, Willard said. I
know my teammates [will]
help me too whenever I need
any help.
Sophomore Tori Almond
is also proud to be on a team
with such great chemistry
and camaraderie. Almond
picked up three wins in
her last three starts for the
Cougars, holding opponents
to an .086 batting average
and only giving up six hits.
Almond knows she will
have to pitch her best if she
wants to earn another win
against FSU.
Im going to have to make
sure to stay ahead of all
the hitters and make sure
theyre hitting my pitches,
Almond said. But I think
if we keep playing the way
weve been playing, that
were going to have a good
weekend.
Coach Gordon Eakin said
his team is ready for the
challenges that lie ahead
because they know whats
expected of them.
Winning is an expecta-
tion, Eakin said. Not
giving in is an expectation.
Getting better every day is
an expectation. And I think
this team is becoming spe-
cial because it is following
the tradition of the program
and exercising all of those
traits.
The Cougars three-game
series can be followed live
on game tracker, while
Fresno State may also
stream the games live. BYU
will return to Provo next
week to face Southern Utah
and Hawaii.

The BYU womens tennis team
and senior captain Megan
Price play their last home
match of the season Friday.
Its going to be a little bitter-
sweet, Price said. Obviously,
its always exciting to play at
home and hopefully we can get
a lot of people out here.
BYU coach Lauren Jones-
Spencer has been coaching ten-
nis at BYU since Price arrived
from Australia to play as a
Cougar in January 2009.
Its really sad that Megans
going to be graduating, Jones-
Spencer said. Ive been here
since she was here, so Im
really close with Megan. Shes
been a great player and were
really going to miss her next
year. Hopefully the girls step
up, perform well and play hard
for her last match of the year
at home.
Despite it being her last
home match, Price said she
will treat it as any other, focus-
ing on specic goals.
Im going to go out there
and focus and help my team
through it because I would love
to nish on a win at home,
Price said.
Price said shes loved her
time at BYU and with the team.
Its been the most amazing
experience I could ever ask
for, Price said. Ive played so
many matches, played so many
teams. Ive met amazing peo-
ple; Ive had the opportunity to
play at an amazing institution
like BYU. Ive learned a lot
about tennis and Ive learned
a lot about myself. If anything,
Ive grown into the person I am
now because of BYU.
BYU takes on No. 33 St.
Marys, which is undefeated
in the West Coast Conference.
The Gaels (9-4) are coming
off two conference wins over
Gonzaga and Portland and the
Cougars just narrowly missed
upsetting No. 72 Santa Clara
earlier in the week.
The Cougars and Gaels hit
the courts Friday at noon on
BYUs outdoor tennis courts.
Admission is free and pizza
will be provided for fans.
The BYU mens tennis team
continues its six-match road
trip to take on conference
opponents St. Marys and San
Diego.
The Cougars had a seven-
match win streak broken by
No. 34 Santa Clara last week-
end and are looking to stay
competitive for the conference
title.
BYU coach Brad Pearce said
he had little to be critical of
in regard to his teams perfor-
mance against Santa Clara in
tough weather conditions.
The rst match outdoors
at sea level is always a tough
transition from indoor play at
altitude, Pearce said. This
dynamic was compounded by
playing a night match under
the lights in cold, windy and
much heavier than normal
conditions. The scales were
tipped in [Santa Claras] favor,
but the guys were valiant in
their efforts. I was proud of
them. [Santa Clara] is a good
team, but we hope to meet
them again under different
conditions.
BYUs upcoming confer-
ence matches will be critical
in maintaining a presence
to take the conference
and to head to the NCAA
championships.
We still have an opportu-
nity to win conference, senior
Georgy Batrakov said. Were
going to keep working toward
that goal and were going to
work hard.
Batrakov said the team was
prepared but needs to start
out stronger in doubles and
maintain its intensity and
focus from start to nish.
If we lose, we lose,
Batrakov said. We just keep
going and learn from our
mistakes. Were denitely
ready for [St. Marys and San
Diego].
BYU takes on St. Marys
in Moraga, Calif., Friday at 2
p.m. PST, then travels to San
Diego to play Saturday at
noon PST.

While most BYU students
were in class or studying
Thursday afternoon, NFL
scouts from across the coun-
try were gathered inside the
Indoor Practice Facility.
BYU held its NFL Pro Day
on campus as NFL scouts
watched and evaluated 10
BYU seniors do their best in
various physical exercises
such as bench-pressing and
cone drills. Each player
tried to perform well in of
impressing the scouts for a
chance at competing for a
spot in the NFL.
Former BYU offensive
linemen Terence Brown
and Matt Reynolds, run-
ning back JJ Di Luigi,
defensive back Corby Eason
and Travis Uale, defensive
linemen Hebron Fangupo
and Matt Putnam, lineback-
ers Jameson Frazier and
Jordan Pendleton (lifted
only) and wide receiver
McKay Jacobson all
participated.
The day began in the
weight room in the Student
Athlete Building as each
participant did a bench
press to see how many 225
pound repetitions he could
do. Then the scouts and play-
ers moved into the Indoor
Practice Facility where each
player did various drills,
including the broad jump,
3-cone drills and several
timed sprints. Scouts were
also there to get measure-
ments of each player.
The event was closed
to the public, but several
coaches, administrators and
media were in attendance.
The event also attracted
previous, current and future
BYU football players, includ-
ing recent BYU greats, Max
Hall and Austin Collie.
Two non-BYU partici-
pants were also in atten-
dance: Les Brown, the
brother of offensive line-
man Braden Brown, and
Devin Tavana, brother of
senior volleyball player
Futi Tavana.

Over this General Conference
weekend, BYUs track and
eld teams will divide its
forces between Texas and
Orem.
Most Cougars will compete
Friday in Orem in the Utah
Valley University Invite at
the Hal Wing Track and Field
Complex.
The weather is going to
be phenomenal, BYU mens
head coach Mark Robison
said. It just gives some kids
a chance that havent had an
opportunity to compete yet,
and some that didnt compete
last week.
The Cougars competing in
Orem will primarily be eld
event athletes and those who
did not get into the Texas
Relays. Most distance run-
ners will not compete this
weekend in preparation for
the Stanford Invitational next
weekend, which is one of the
biggest meets for distance
runners, Robison said.
Only a handful of Cougars
will travel to the Texas Relays
to compete because of the dif-
culty of being invited to the
Thursday-Saturday meet.
Texas is a hard meet to
get in, they do it by rank,
Robison said.
There are only a certain
amount of spots in each
event; therefore most of the
Cougars going south are
sprinters and eld event
competitors.
Robison considers Texas
venue, which will host region-
als in a few months, one of
the best in the country, sec-
ond to Penn State. The sta-
dium holds 25,000 people and
is expected to have around
20,000 spectators watching
this weekends meet.
It is probably the best pole-
vaulting competition for pole-
vaulters before regionals,
womens pole-vaulting coach
Eric Rasmussen said.
BYUs Rachel Fisher,
Christen Guenther and Victor
Weirich will all compete this
weekend in pole-vault.
Traditionally, it is a huge
meet, Rasmussen said. The
stands are always full and
so it is really exciting. It is a
good tradition for pole-vault-
ers to come. Texas has a lot
of good pole-vaulters it is a
really big deal. We usually get
a couple athletes in.
With favorable jumping
weather and elite competi-
tion, Rasmussen hopes Fisher
and Guenther will jump bet-
ter than their previous record
marks.
The other athletes compet-
ing in individual events in
Texas include Fanfan Charles
and Jason Hinds in the 100
meter, Chris Carter in the 400
meter hurdles, Keith Keller
and Blaine Baker in the jave-
lin and Elizabeth Wilson, who
is currently competing in the
heptathlon.
The rest of the Cougars
attending the meet will com-
pete in the relays this Texas
event is known for.
They run every relay you
can imagine, Robison said.
They give at the end of the
year an award for the team of
the year in different relays.
However, BYU is only plan-
ning on running a few, for the
workout and to practice the
logistics of the relays, such as
the hand-offs.
It is a really nice facility,
good competition, good fans,
people do spectacular things
here, Rasmussen said.
Thats what we are hoping
for, something spectacular.

Some students were raised
to celebrate
John Hickey, a junior major-
ing in chemical engineering,
from Mapleton, said he gained
his love of holidays from his
mom, who loves to celebrate
occasions, especially April
Fools Day.
[My mom puts] Jello in
our cups that look like drinks,
dirt for dessert with gummy
worms, blindfolds us and has
us eat brains (spaghetti), tapes
our forks to the table, puts
things in our shoes, plastic
wrap in doorways, [and we]
have dinner for breakfast.
Hickey tries not to remind
people about the holiday, so he
can play simple pranks on his
friends.
I look forward to it, but
dont let others look forward
to it, that is the trick. Its like a
secret holiday, he said.
Some students were born to
prank
Julia Knecht, a senior major-
ing in information systems,
from Mission Viejo, Calif.,
said she has fond memories of
wrapping everything on her
co-workers desk in foil and
playing similar pranks.
One of my co-workers got
free doll heads on KSL and
gradually lled my cubicle
with them throughout the
week, she said. By the end
of the week there were 527 doll
heads in my cubicle. It was
hilarious.
Knechts favorite April
Fools Day prank was last year
when her friend and his girl-
friend faked their engagement
on Facebook weeks before the
holiday.
[He] had everyone get
together for an engagement
party on April 1, Knecht said.
Knecht suggests if students
are looking for good April
Fools Day prank ideas, they
should look for free items on
KSL and put them in their
roommates bedrooms.
Others live in fear of the
tricks that come their way
While some students thrive
on the pranks, other students
on campus are scared of all the

Cooper Howell, a junior

no one is safe from embarrass-
ment on April Fools Day.
My traditions usually
consist of trying not to take
anything anyone says seri-
ously, especially big news,
Howell said, claiming he lives
in constant fear for a full 24
hours.

The cellophane over the toilet
bowl, honey in the shampoo,
blue food coloring in the

happened to me.
Howell said he hates being

I am going to boycott April

Although many people dreamof going to the
Olympics, it is only a reality for a few, who may
appear to be distant, rare specimens. But several
Cougars are competing in the Olympic trials this
summer, hoping to earn a spot on the U.S. Olympic
track team. Ryan Waite and Miles Batty are two of
these athletes.
Taking on a different training schedule than previ-
ous years, both Waite fromOregon in the 800 meters
and Batty fromSandy in the 1,500 meters are physi-
cally and mentally preparing themselves for one of
the biggest races of their career.
For probably every runner, whether youre at the
top level or the middle level, you hope youre going
to be able to be ready in those Olympic years to at
least compete in the Olympic trials, Waite said. I
have been lucky enough to rise up to a more elite
level, to be able to be in contention to compete at the
Olympic trials.
There are many logistics that go into hosting the
fastest, most talented individuals in the country in
one meet. The rst factor, and one of the most impor-
tant, is howto get invited.
There are two ways to be invited to compete in
the Olympic track and eld trials: through the
A standard or the B standard. The A standard is
an automatic qualication by hitting a specic
time, height or distance set by USA Track and
Field. The B standard is a provisional qualica-
tion, meaning there are a set number of athletes
capped for each event and if the spots are not
lled by automatic qualications, the next fastest
times are invited to compete.
In the case of both the 800 meters and the 1,500
meters, the cap is 30 people. After the trials, the top
three individuals are invited to the Olympic team.
There will be around 1,000 men and women ath-
letes competing at the Hayward Field in Oregon
for an audience of 20,000 people. To host that many
elite athletes, the amount of support and volunteer
work is essential.
We are planning for 2,000 volunteers to be work-
ing throughout the whole event, said Nathan
Woods fromTrackTown USA. There will be
another few hundred workers that will be ofcials,
vendors and staff.
Qualifying is only the rst part of attending
the Olympic trials; competing is quite another
proposition.
Its one thing to qualify and another to contend,
Batty said.
Although Batty passed the qualication mark by
three seconds last year when he ran a mile in 3 min-
utes, 36.00 seconds, it was before the qualication
windowbeginning May 1, 2011. However, his 1,500
meter split in the mile this year was fast enough to
automatically qualify himfor the Olympic trials.
Waite, on the other hand, is still in the process of
trying to qualify through the Astandard. After an
eight-month recovery fromknee surgery, he began
his training last June to prepare for this year.
Waite hasnt hit the qualifying mark of 1 minute,
46.50 seconds, but he said he is happy where he is,
considering all that he has endured. Waite owes
much of his running success to his supportive fam-
ily, especially his wife.
I had knee surgery and missed the whole season
and I didnt knowif I was going to run again, Waite
said. She [his wife] was really supportive, just
encouraging me and telling me, Youve just got to go
for it because if you dont you will regret it the rest
of your life.
Despite his injuries, Waite trained diligently and
patiently throughout the season to achieve his two
goals: place at the NCAAOutdoor Championships
and attend the Olympic trials.
That [these goals] just really helped me in every
workout when I was hurting and every run that I
didnt want to go on, Waite said. That was in the
back of my mind, knowing that I had less than a
year until the Olympic trials, and I need to get back
into shape.
June is the month to work toward. The NCAA
Outdoor Championships, the biggest collegiate meet
of the year, is only two weeks before the eight-day
Olympic trials in Oregon beginning June 22.
Right nowI amtrying to remember and stay
focused that June is what matters, Batty said. It
is really easy to get almost too t too soon, to where
youre running really fast times in April and May
and youre really burnt and tired by June. It almost
sounds counterintuitive but Imletting myself get
out of shape a little so I can give myself something to
work for.
He may not be a leading name going into the trials
but Batty considers himself in the top ve to seven
guys competing in the 1,500 meters. Although the
pressure may seemdaunting to many, Batty strives to
live in the present and focus on things in his control.
Pressure comes fromexpectations, people think-
ing you have to do something, Batty said. I dont
have to do anything; I amjust trying to do what I
want to do.
Batty considers his placement going into the
trials ideal as a name in the crowd yet not the
leading contender.
You want to get to the point where if you fail
you arent letting anyone down but yourself, he
said. That is the ideal situation; you want to do it
because you personally want to accomplish it. You
really dont owe any accomplishments to anyone
except for yourself.
Much of the support and mental drive for Waite
and Batty come fromfellowteammates and their
coach, Ed Eyestone. Waite considers his teammates
his best friends.
We call ourselves 880, Waite said of the 800 run-
ners [the 800 used to be the 880 when the distance was
measured in yards instead of meters]. We think we
are like a boy band or something. They are denitely
my best friends, I have a lot of fun with those guys
I really couldnt imagine being able to be where I am
running without them.
Batty also nds strength in his teamand family.
I think sometimes those people believe in me
more than I really believe in myself, Batty said.
Back in high school I remember my dad saying,
You can do this, [speaking of] winning a state cham-
pionship, and I really didnt think I could, and I did.
It really helped knowing that someone else believes
in you.
However, it is not only outside support that
makes an Olympian, it is also the condence and
personal drive.
Really what it comes down to, people can say what
they think you can do, but really it comes to what you
feel you can do, Batty said.
Both give the impression they consider themselves
underdogs being collegiates in the Olympic trials,
however, that doesnt stop themfromcontending for
an Olympic spot.
I love being in races where I am not expected
to beat someone, Batty said. But I really want
to because it really allows you to show what you
can do.
Going to Oregon, Waites home turf, both runners
showcondence in their ability to contend for the
Olympic team.
I think if you make the Olympic trials then you
cant put anything past anybody, Waite said. You
have a shot at it so you might as well go for it.

London is often associated
with sh and chips, red
phone booths, quaint taxi
cabs and Monty Python
references.
But in just a matter of
months, London will host
the 2012 Summer Olympic
Games. New architec-
tural features such as the
Aquatics Centre and the
Olympic Stadium are under
construction. These will
soon attract plenty of tour-
ists eager to decorate their
Facebook pages in pictures
from across the pond. But
dont let those distract from
other historical wonders
London has to offer. There
are the obvious few, such
as Big Ben or Buckingham
Palace. Take a stroll down
the lane, and theres a
London most tourists dont
know about.
Anna-Cajsa Gipson, a BYU
graduate from Enumclaw,
Wash., said the simple
things in London make it the
city what it is.
In America, you just
dont have an old abbey,
Gipson said.
Gipson has family in
London and has visited fre-
quently. In addition to the
old abbeys and period archi-
tecture, her and her three
daughters biggest highlight
from their trips to London
is the little-known Princess
Diana Playground in Hyde
Park. The playground
features a replica wooden
pirate ship, teepees and is
complete with guards.
Its the most interest-
ing playground youve ever
seen, Gipson said.
She is excited about the
attention the Olympics
have garnered for the city
and even the new Aquatics
Centre. Some of Gipsons
favorite events are the swim-
ming events. However, she
recommends to not forget
why youre in the cloudy city.
Plan your priorities,
Gipson said. Theres some-
thing there for everyone.
Missy Johnson, a recent
BYU graduate from Sandy,
said in addition to priorities,
dont get overwhelmed by
what others say should be
done. Johnson went with her
family several years ago and
didnt understand the hype
of places such as Madame
Tussauds Wax Museum. She
said it was overpriced and
not a lot of fun, except for
children. She preferred the
lesser-known journeys, like
the London by Night tours.
She and her family also did
a tour on foot about Jack the
Ripper. They followed his
trail, heard several theories
and stopped at assumed mur-
der locations.
She said it was difcult
to navigate the Tube, better
known as the London Metro.
There are plenty of lines
with many destinations
along the way. Her brother,
Owen Johnson, a senior
studying physics, said a day
can go from good to bad sim-
ply based on transportation.
The metro system is a
good system, but there are
tons of different lines,
Johnson said. Before you
leave your hotel each morn-
ing, make sure you know
how youre going to get
where you want to go.
The Olympics will prob-
ably overshadow any theater
performances, but if the
opportunity presents itself,
the Globe Theater is a popu-
lar piece of history. This is
where Shakespeares perfor-
mances came to life. Missy
Johnson said she was a little
surprised when she visited.
It was smaller than I
anticipated, yet more inti-
mate, Johnson said.
The Olympics herald ath-
letic aptitude and this year,
architectural antiquities
rarely seen in other places
will underline the brilliance
of the venue. And if planned
well, you may be more than a
typical tourist of London.
Be willing to explore,
Missy Johnson said. Go
down alleys, and down nooks
and crannies.

With all of the inspira-
tional sports films about
athletes overcoming
obstacles to be the best,
you would think there
would be a lot more on the
Olympics. Stories of under-
dog Olympic athletes seem
to come out of every event,
but Hollywood does not
think they are worth the
time or money. So compil-
ing a list of five Olympic
films is a challenge, espe-
cially films younger than
20 years old. Since I already
covered Chariots of Fire
in a previous article, here
are five other films to jump-
start your Olympic fever:
Blades of Glory: The
sports movie for people
who are not sports fans,
this wacky film follows
disgraced figure skaters
Will Ferrell and Jon Heder
(a.k.a. Napoleon Dynamite)
who exploit a loophole to
compete in pairs figure
skating. All of the Will
Ferrell comedy tropes are
present; from the man-child
lead character to the out of
nowhere romance subplot
to the obligatory gross-out
gags. Yet it manages to
stick its landing thanks to
a competent director, some
clever gags and a fun sup-
porting cast including Will
Arnett, Amy Poehler, Craig
T. Nelson and the lovely
Jenna Fisher.
Cool Runnings: The
story of Jamaicas 1988
Olympic bobsledding team
may not scream inspira-
tional movie, but some
Disney producer decided to
give it a try with this 1993
release. Directed by John
Turtletaub (who went on to
direct National Treasure),
the film certainly has its
fair share of Disney-isms,
like some goofy char-
acters and childish jokes.
Nevertheless, it is a fun
sports film with genuine
heart and an entertaining
cast, led by the late John
Candy.
The Cutting Edge: This
gloriously 90s romantic
comedy follows a figure
skating diva and a washed
up hockey player who
begrudgingly pair up to
compete in the Olympics. If
you have seen any romantic
comedy or underdog sports
film, you will know exactly
what to expect from that
premise. Light-hearted,
entertaining, well made
and nicely acted, it is a
good date movie for the
sports-loving couple.
Miracle: Praised by
critics and fans alike,
Miracle follows the story
of the 1980 U.S. Olympic
hockey team and fearless
coach Herb Brooks as they
challenge the unstop-
pable Soviet Union team.
The film rises above being
a very straightforward
sports film thanks to
superb filmmaking and
a strong cast, led by Kurt
Russell in arguably his best
performance.
Without Limits: Robert
Towne directed this 1998
film following legendary
Olympic runner Steve
Prefontaine, from his
humble origins in Oregon
to his untimely demise at
age 24. Though a box-office
flop due to bad market-
ing, the film managed to
garner critical praise for
its insightful look into the
relationships Prefontaine
built as he went on to break
several world records.
Donald Sutherland gar-
nered a Golden Globe
nomination for his winning
portrayal of Prefontaines
coach, Steve Bowerman.
Go for gold: Five Olympic lms to check out
Stories of underdog
Olympic athletes
seem to come out
of every event, but
Hollywood does
not think they are
worth the time or
money. So compiling
a list of ve Olympic
lms is a challenge,
especially lms
younger than
20 years old.

As the host city of the 2012
Olympics, London will be the
temporary home of people
from 216 countries. With
such diversity, communica-
tion between ambassadors,
athletes and spectators can
be a logistical and linguistic
nightmare. BYU professor
Giovanni Tata isnt too con-
cerned. Thanks to Tata and
his crew of programmers,
theres an app for that The
Olympic Translator is due to
launch in May.
Tata, director of creative
works at BYU, said the
idea behind the app is to
streamline communication
by making sure people can
understand one another.
The idea is that if you
communicate with somebody
and give them commands you
want to make sure that youre
conveying the right message,
because otherwise you could
create a lot of confusion if
you give the wrong directions
or the wrong commands,
Tata said. Thats what our
purpose was, to provide a tool
that people could have some
condence in using.
Tata, who had previously
helped to create the language
training software used in the
2002 Olympics, said develop-
ment of the new translator
app began nearly three years
ago when he was contacted
by a committee formed by
The Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-day Saints to assist
with preparations for the
Olympic games in London.
Tata agreed to make the app
available to the Olympics and
set to work.
So basically what we
decided to do is to start col-
lecting a lot of phrases that
could be used during the
Olympics in a variety of situ-
ations, Tata said. Like in
emergency services, like for
the police, but especially for
the volunteers who are going
to give directions to the tour-
ists and athletes alike.
With the help of many
volunteers Tata and the
translation team have col-
lected close to 6,000 phrases
that will be pre-programmed
into the app. Tata said the
task of creating an app that
can bridge so many language
barriers is extremely taxing,
but luckily he and his crew
didnt have to start from
scratch.
This Olympic Translator
will work in conjunction with
Google [Translate], Tata
said. Though it will have all
these thousands of phrases,
we cant think of all the
phrases that could possibly be
used.
Isaac Davis, a junior study-
ing computer science at BYU,
works as a programmer for
the project developing the
interface for the Android plat-
form. Isaacs brother Brian,
who is also studying com-
puter science, is developing
the iOS interface for Apple
products. One of the things
the Davis brothers are most
excited for is how the app
automatically updates trans-
lations added by users.
If you say a phrase itll
come up and if we dont
have it in our database itll
show a Google phrase,
Isaac said. The user can
then hit yes this is correct
or the user can hit edit and
then when they hit submit it
sends it to our database.
According to Isaac and
Brian this app is like a
Wikipedia for translations.
The more translations that
users add, the more com-
prehensive the app will
become.

Perform with the Young Ambassadors on their 2013 Tour to China

By Mason Porter
Its a week before his two-
night event at Velour Live
Music Gallery, and Joshua
James is in his backyard,
helping his wife trim
their goats hooves. James
recently returned from play-
ing eight shows at SXSW in
Austin, Texas, showcasing
a batch of new songs that
will appear on his forthcom-
ing record. This weekends
Provo shows wont be as
prestigious as his perfor-
mances at SXSW, but James
said he looks forward to
playing for the hometown
audience.
It can be nerve-racking
because youre playing for
your buddies, but at the
same time Im very comfort-
able playing here, he said.
We just did a free show in
American Fork, and it was
one of my all-time favorite
shows. There were so many
people there that I knew
and this is where I started
playing music, so for me
its very much a hometown
feel.
Sharing the limelight
at Velour this weekend is
James longtime friend
Isaac Russell, current bass-
ist and Columbia Records
recording artist. Russell has
returned to Utah from Los
Angeles to continue work
on his debut full-length
album. He said hes happy
to be back in the music
scene that nurtured him as
a young artist.
The crowds at Velour are
always really nice, he said.
Its really a home away
from home for me. Great
times and great people.
The Joshua James vs.
Isaac Russell event, as its
been advertised, will be a
homecoming of sorts for the
nationally recognized art-
ists. Despite the competitive
nature of the title and vin-
tage Irish boxing poster art,
Corey Fox, Velours owner,
said his intent is to create
an intimate atmosphere
between the performers and
the audience.
Fox said he originally
concocted the idea for a
versus show about five
years ago, although he
first intended to feature
James and Brinton Jones,
current frontman of The
Devil Whale. With Russells
recent relocation to Provo,
however, Fox decided it was
a good time to resurrect
his vision for a songwriter
showcase.
This will be a variation
of my original concept,
Fox said. The first night
will have both artists play-
ing on stage with full bands,
and the second night will
be a stripped-down floor
setup with the audience sur-
rounding the performers.
Fox said spreading the
event over two nights will
let people choose which
type of show they would
rather see and also allow
more people to attend.
Having been present for
the nascent period of both
performers music careers,
Fox said hes been lucky
to watch them grow from
fledgling open-mic perform-
ers to nationally recognized
artists.
Theyve toured the world
and shared the stage with
the likes of Adele, John
Mayer, Jacob Dylan, Pete
Yorn and others, Fox said.
Im very proud of them
and Im honored they still
choose to play Velour.
Because of the popular-
ity of both artists, Fox said
he expects both shows to
sell out. Tickets can be pur-
chased in advance either at
Velour or online at 24tix.
com. Fox said Saturdays
show has very limited seat-
ing, so it will most likely
sell out before the Friday
show.
Even though James and
Russell have achieved con-
siderable success outside
the local music scene, Fox
said they maintain the
humility and work ethic
that got them to where they
are now.
I think both of them
keep a pretty good balance
of being successful artists
and living a normal life,
he said. Joshua is a rock
climbing, goat raising,
organic farmer, and Isaac is
a normal kid barely out of
his teens.
Russell, who just turned
20 at the beginning of the
year, said hes currently
working on solidifying his
sound, preparing to record
the follow-up to his 2010
self-titled EP.
Ive been writing and
working on getting my
sound to be concrete, he
said. Im working to get
stuff placed in a movie
or TV show because I feel
like thats the best way for
my style of music to gain
popularity in an organic
way.
James, on the other hand,
has nished work on his third
album and is in the process
of talking to various labels.
It was engineered, produced
and mixed by Richard Swift,
who currently plays keys
with The Shins. James has
also been working on a
Modest Mouse covers record
that he plans to release for
free later this year.
For both artists, this
weekends event signifies a
return to their roots, and,
for James at least, it pro-
vides perspective on how
fortunate he is to be able to
make a living doing what he
loves.
Music does it for me.
It fills me up, he said.
Its insane to me that this
is what I get to do. I am
beyond grateful for the life
that Ive chosen.

By Amberly Asay
Ninja turtles arising from
a puddle of radioactive goo
with amazing super powers
is a little difcult to believe,
yet fans across the world have
accepted it. What may be
even more difcult to believe
are ninjas coming from other
planets to our world.
Michael Bay, the
Transformers director,
announced last week he
will make another Teenage
Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.
His new screen adaptation
will feature teenage mutant
ninja aliens. The movie
is expected to be released
Christmas 2013. This new
idea has caused a stir and
even outrage among fans. In
his response, Bay has asked
fans to breathe and chill, in
a statement he made on his
webpage.
Jacob Van Vliet, studying
information systems at UVU,
was shocked by news of the
movie. He said he wishes
they would make a TV series
based on the old TMNT.
I thought it was really
dumb, Vliet said. How can
you remake TMNT and say
aliens? How will they learn to
love pizza?
Phillip Swan, from
Mapleton, grew up on the ninja
turtles. He said he loved the
action, the pizza and just the
humor of the turtles. He isnt
looking forward to the movie
but still gives it some hope.
I think its a bad idea,
Swan said. But if he holds
true to the old movie formats
they should be sweet.
Bay told fans he is work-
ing closely with the original
creators of Ninja Turtles
to help expand and create a
more complex back story, and
that they are going to create a
richer world for the turtles.
Fans are still not too fond
of the whole alien idea. The
movie format will denitely
have fans on the edge of their
seats. Alex Christensen,
studying computer science,
was surprised at the change
in the story. He said they were
changing too much.
If you change the story
that fundamentally, its no
longer the Ninja Turtles,
Christensen said. Its a new
story.
Greg Vandagriff, from
Monett, Mo., is not too upset
about the change. He thinks
fans are overreacting and
need to just get over it.
I cannot imagine how bor-
ing your life would have to be
in order to claim any amount
of emotional distress over a
franchise consisting of over-
sized turtles who eat pizza
and ght crime while yelling
Cowabunga! as Vanilla Ice
raps, Vandagriff said.
Associated Press
Director Michael Bay ignited controversy last week when he
announced changes to the plot of his upcoming Teenage
Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.
