OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) Kevin Durant scored 22 points, Thabo Sefolosha set playoff career bests with 19 points and six steals, and the Oklahoma City Thunder snapped San Antonio's 20 game winning streak by beating the Spurs, 102 82, in Game 3 of the Western Conference finals on Thursday night. Oklahoma City closed its series deficit to 2 1 and will host Game 4 on Saturday night. Sefolosha threw a wrench in the Spurs' well oiled offense at the start, getting four steals in the first 3 minutes. The Spurs ended up committing a postseason worst 21 turnovers and scoring their least points all season. Tony Parker and Stephen Jackson led the Spurs with 16 points apiece. Tim Duncan had 11 points on 5 for 15 shooting, taking 11 of San Antonio's first 25 shots as the offense went through the All Star center instead of Parker. San Antonio had been averaging 109.4 points during its month and a half winning streak and had been held to double digits only twice. The Spurs, who already set an NBA record for the longest winning streak carried over from the regular season into the playoffs, were trying to match the league mark for most wins to start the postseason. The Lakers won 11 straight to start the 1989 and 2001 playoffs, getting swept in the NBA finals the first time and winning it all the second. The Spurs' last loss was to the Lakers at home on April 11. Parker and Duncan didn't play in the final 15 minutes, and coach Gregg Popovich pulled the plug after another series of three straight turnovers allowed the deficit to reach 23 points early in the fourth quarter. Sefolosha had a right handed dunk off a lob pass from Russell Westbrook, who followed with his own two handed jam on an alley oop pass and Sefolosha followed with a reverse layup on another turnover fueled fast break chance to push the lead to 86 63 with 9:48 left. The Thunder put together another 9 0 run coinciding with Manu Ginobili coming out of the game, and featuring Serge Ibaka sticking his tongue out after nailing a jumper from the top of the key. Coach Scott Brooks soon followed suit and pulled his own front line players with the game well in hand. The Spurs wiped out a 24 point deficit in Game 3 against the Clippers in Los Angeles in the last round, but they weren't recovering in this one. San Antonio managed only 24 points in the paint after averaging 46 through the first two games of the series and 47.8 through the playoffs. Oklahoma City already held a 28 8 scoring edge in the paint while taking a 54 41 halftime lead and it never got better for San Antonio, which couldn't get any closer than 11 points in the second half. The Thunder scored the game's first eight points, feeding off Sefolosha's steals, but San Antonio recovered in time to take the lead with more than 5 minutes left in the opening period. Oklahoma City took the lead early in the second quarter and there was no looking back. Sefolosha set up Ibaka's two handed dunk and hit a 3 pointer during a 13 1 run, with San Antonio's only point coming on a free throw by Ginobili after Durant was called for a technical foul while arguing a call from the bench. Oklahoma City's lead ballooned to 15 when Kendrick Perkins grabbed Westbrook's airball and dunked it with two hands. Duncan did have five blocks to surpass Kareem Abdul Jabbar's NBA playoff record of 476 by one. . Rapper Lil Wayne tweeted before the game that he planned to attend but "was denied by the team to be in their arena." Thunder spokesman Dan Mahoney said the rapper's representatives demanded front row seats but none were available. "We'd love to have him at a game, but like anyone else, he needs a ticket," Mahoney said. . Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin presented TNT analyst and former NBA All Star Charles Barkley with a pair of boots, a steak and an order of lamb fries a dish that leaves out the otherwise undesirable part of the anatomy out of its name during the pregame show.

War has been mechanized until it is in large part a contest in producing machinery. In Thomas Jefferson's day, it made sense to protect "the right to keep and bear arms," so that people could overthrow a tyrannical government. Today, the private citizen cannot keep the kinds of weapons that would serve this purpose. The Uzbekistani rebels would disagree. More seriously, it's interesting to see an encylopedia written just 13 years after the fall of Saigon state that warfare must be mechanized to defeat a government. Part of it is just mental blindness, but the tome's liberal bias compounded it. To think of it in OODA (Observe Orient Decide Act) terms, the orientations ("war is mechanized," "for safety people must be disarmed) implicitly guided the observations ("small arms cannot defeat a government"). Gun control, moreso than any other issue, is the one upon which liberals tend to be the least rational. It's an article of faith because the desire for gun control laws is a visceral reaction on the question of security vs. freedom. If you view government as omnicomptetent and good and your neighbors as children then you like gun control. If you think government is basically incompetent and at least potentially ill intentioned and your neighbors are trustworthy then you dislike gun control. ( The idea that both government and the general public tend toward incompetency is probably closer to the mark) Don't get me wrong, the gun wingnuts are also unreasonable and tempermentally extreme they just have the better of the empirical data and constitutional arguments. And using slippery slope lobbying tactics themselves they recognize it quite well in their opponents who aim for the eventual abolition of private ownership of firearms. So put me on the side of 2nd Amendment freedom. I've heard this argument presented as "The government should have an absolute monopoly on violence, and private guns take away from that." When not veering wildly off tangent, Michael Moore's "Bowling for Columbine" is a good documentary on the subject. While the second half (which criticizes gun supporters) gets the most billing, the first half (which is critical of gun opponents) make great viewing. Indeed. My view of the Michigan Militia was negative /until/ I watched the movie. Moore is extremely sympathetic on both an organizational and personal level. Likewise, I believed Sagan's claim that Canada is "de gunned" /until/ I saw the movie, which emphasized how easy it is to transport anything across the Detroit Churchill bridge if you wanted too. (Of course, this was pre 9/11). Additionally, the infamous Columbine survivor returns bullets to store scene is parrelled earlier by a purchase in peaceful Canada. The movie's goal is to criticize American culture where Moore has a point and not gun laws.) Moore is complex politically, but he is a marketing genius. He knows exactly what makes movies sell controversy. Emphasizing the "pollution is more dangerous in LA than gun violence" aspect would't fill seats. But attack military contractors and blam! money from the sky!

Air Jordan Winterized 6 Rings Light Charcoal High Voltage As the summer season approaches, attention turns to the cool breezes that over take us as we walk along the beach or lake side. Then, it becomes a rude awakening for many men when they realize that there won't be a sandal acceptable that may transition from one venue to another if one selects to stop off for a bite to eat. Manufactures have been called to action and now you can find a number of most comfortable shoes available and they're making major news in the fashion office too. No one ever asserted that comfort and style can not be combined in one package. One of the hottest names in sandals is Birkenstock. The basic construction of this product with the raised toe bar, recessed heel design and fantastic support for the arch makes this sandal a highly commended choice for patients that suffer from podiatry issues. For comfy men's sandals, there are many different styles from which to select. The Arizona Birko Flor style is one of their preferred as it is fashioned as a slide with two over the foot straps and buckles which permit any required adjustments while promoting that perfect fit. If cash is no object and you consider the comfort of your feet to be an investment instead of yet another spending, Mephisto is another top manufacturer in cosy men's sandals. This shoe will give the ultimate in ease when walking on those tours that are part of summer vacations. The style,'Sam' is intensely fashionable for those casual dinners and is available in black and tan grain leather. While the pricing might seem a bit higher than other sandals, it may be sensible to notice that a bunch of this company's shoes can be re soled. ECCO has been providing superb shoes since its inception in 1963 when one individual had the assumption maybe the foot should dictate control over the shoe vs the foot conforming to the shoe. With that history, this manufacturer is still providing comfortable men's sandals as well as having the stamp of approval from the american Podiatric association for plenty of their products. One of most classy of sandals for men in their line is the Dress Fisherman which offers comfort and ease in walking with its leather multi strap design which will be in style at any summer function.
