HARRIMAN, UT - There are warriors. There are Utah Warriors. Then there are Utah Warriors' Warriors. Figuratively and literally, that is what Lance Williams is. One of the best back row players in Major League Rugby has quite the story. From growing up in Hawaii and Samoa, being the captain for the University of Hawaii football team and being on the All-MLR Team twice, he's been curiously uncapped by USA Rugby. Will he choose to represent Samoa? We also introduce a new (lightning-fast) MLR Headlines "Coffee Break" with John Fitzpatrick. It's 30 seconds of headlines and awful one-liners. Finally, we open with a salute to the sublime Eddie Butler, another one taken too soon. ICYMI Dept: Memphis Inner City Rugby is celebrating their 10th anniversary - at Graceland!

Your next edition of The Rugby Paper Podcast discusses the United Rugby Championship. The URC is undergoing something of a revolution, with the addition of four South African provinces this season. Two South African sides made it to the semi-finals, however with all four Welsh regions missing out on quarter-final spots. Joining Ollie Little, Nick Cain and Brendan Gallagher to debate this imbalance is former Wales captain and one of the most distinctive voices in rugby, Eddie Butler.

After mass protests blocked a move to remove Italy from the Six Nations, Charlie and Freddy rank their favourite anthems from the competition and create their most iconic XV. We delve into the real meaning behind the lyrics of La Marseillaise, the story of the first English player to receive a red card, and why Eddie Butler told Gavin Henson that he could "shave anything he wanted"! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Zuallererst: Wir starten bald mit der Suche nach dem beliebtesten zweiten Platz. Die Vorrunden werden in unserer Song Contest-Gruppe SONGCONTEST 2020 1/2 – Group about Things gespielt. Mitmachen!Zu den News: Die EBU hat die Konzepte verraten, wie der Song Contest 2021 in Rotterdam stattfinden soll, dabei wurden vier Szenarien vorgestellt. Auf Eurovision.de gibt es das auch grafisch aufbereitet.Das Duet von Lou Asril und Conchita Wurst für die heurige Amadeus-Verleihung gibt es hier zu sehen.Verka Serduchka, Kult-Zweite des Jahres 2008, hat eine neue EP draussen: "Sexy" heißt und klingt sie. Unsere Kolleg*innen vom ESCGreenroom widmen Verka aus diesem Grund eine sportliche Episode.Black Lives Matter heißt eine Bürgerrechtsbewegung, die aktuell Schlagzeilen macht. Wie sieht es denn aber mit der kulturellen Repräsentanz schwarzer Musik beim Eurovision Song Contest aus? Wir erzählen diese Geschichte, die 1966 begann. Zudem trafen wir drei Vertreter*innen Österreichs: Stella Jones (1995), Kim Cooper (2000) und Cesár Sampson (2018).Dazu haben wir eine Playlist erstellt mit allen Acts schwarzer Künstler*innen.Wir stellen alle Künstlerinnen vor, erzählen über ihre Herkunft und ihre (auch musikalischen) Wurzeln. Angefangen von jenen, die in den 60ern und 70ern den Weg geebnet haben, wie die Niederländerin Milly Scott bis hin zur jungen Garde: im Jahr 2020 wären es sieben Acts gewesen, bei dem eine oder mehrere schwarze Perfomer*innen am Start gewesen wären.Und wir sprechen mit den drei schwarzen Künstler*innen, die Österreich geschickt hat. Stella Jones und César Sampson standen als Solo Artists auf der Bühne und waren bei uns bereits zu Gast. Kim Cooper war, zusammen mit Tini Kainrath und der leider viel zu früh verstorbenen Lynne Kieran Teil der "Rounder Girls" die beim Eurovision Song Contest 2000 Österreich in Stockholm mit "All To You" vertraten.Alle drei berichten von ihrer Erfahrung mit Rassismus und Alltagsrassismus, aber auch über Mechanismen, damit umzugehen.In der Kleinen Song Contest Geschichte am Schluss erzählt Marco von den israelischen Vertretern Eddie und Gabriel Butler. 1999 traten sie als Eden mit "Happy Birthday" an, Eddie dann solo auch 2006. Aufgewachsen sind sie in der israelischen Kleinstadt Dimona aufgewachsen, die Eltern stammen aber aus Chicago und gehörten einer in den USA entstandenen jüdischen Glaubensrichtung namens "Black Hebrew Israelites" an, die sich als Nachfahren hebräischer Juden ansahen. Diese in sich sehr heterogene Glaubensrichtung war Heimat für sehr unterschiedliche ausgeprägte Sekten, alle aber entsprachen allerdings nicht den Glaubensstandards der jüdischen Gemeinden. Deswegen wurde die Gemeinde Butlers von Israel auch nicht als Juden anerkannt. Was wiederum dazu führte, dass Eddie Butler sehr lang auf seine Einbürgerung warten musste, obwohl er das Land zwei mal beim Song Contest vertrat.

Nothing was going on with the Cubs on the diamond on Monday, but things were going on behind the scenes. It was the beginning of the MLB draft, and with the 26th pick the Cubs selected Stanford shortstop Nico Hoerner. I talked to a talent evaluator about what fans can expect from Hoerner as a prospect, and I passed on that knowledge in the first segment. In the second segment, I welcomed Kelly Wallace back to the podcast to help me answer a few questions from the fans. That ranged from the whereabouts of Eddie Butler to a little early trade deadline discussion. In the final segment, Kelly teased her new venture with Expanded Roster (click here for more info!) and I went into a little greater detail about my own thing with The Cloud City Chronicle.  Learn more about your ad choices.

The Cubs not only played a game on Thursday, but they won a game! They beat the St. Louis Cardinals by a score of 8-5, with Jon Lester getting the victory and pitching well. Only a bit of a rough seventh inning from Eddie Butler was a black mark on this one. Javier Baez and Jason Heyward both had a couple of hits. The Cubs will travel to Colorado to take on the Rockies for a weekend series, with Kyle Hendricks opposing Jon Gray on Friday night. In my second segment, I welcomed Kelly Wallace of Locked On Cubs to chat about Ian Happ vs. Albert Almora in the outfield, as well as the breakout season of Baez. To finish things up, I took a look around the NL Central and updated the current standings.

It seems like we're saying goodbye to Cubs players more and more, here on Locked On Cubs. Today, it's reliever Justin Grimm. After a rough 2017 and a few bad appearances this spring, the Cubs decided to let him go now and open up some competition for the final roster spot. Or could it be two final roster spots? I examined some relievers that could be contending for the final spots in the bullpen, including one that I think most of us hadn't even considered. Eddie Butler, Dillon Maples, Shae Simmons, Randy Rosario, and even Alec Mills have a chance of coming out of spring training in the bullpen for the Cubs. Finally, I took a deeper look at Cubs non-roster invitee Ryan Court. He grew up a big Cubs fan, and just in general is a guy you want to root for.

Justin Grimm was released by the Cubs. As a result, the Cubs final bullpen spot could go to Anthony Bass, Eddie Butler, Dillon Maples, or an unknown surprise. Corey and Brendan talk about Grimm's replacements and catch you up to date on all Spring Training news.

MLB.com's Matthew Leach and fantasy expert Fred Zinkie discuss the merits of picking up Aaron Altherr and Mark Reynolds especially if you own Freddie Freeman who is going to miss significant time with an injury. (:26) Xander Bogaerts has not added the power stroke to his game yet and that lowers his rank below some of the higher level shortstops around the league. (16:30) Indians outfield prospect Bradley Zimmer has been called up to the big leagues, Zinkie discusses what kind of player he is. (19:30) Masahiro Tanaka has struggled through the first few weeks of the season, is he a buy low candidate or can he turn it around? (22:49) Could Jose Berrios or Eddie Butler be a difference maker for the Twins and Cubs? (27:21) With Aroldis Chapman heading to the DL, is Dellin Betances an acceptable replacement? (32:50) The guys also break down the struggling bullpens of the Mets, Nationals and Mariners. (35:45) Matthew Leach sat down with Blue Jays reporter Gregor Chisholm to find out about Joe Biagini in the starting rotation and Jose Bautista's slow start. (43:29)

George Bissell, Mike Gianella and Bret Sayre of Baseball Prospectus discuss the fantasy impact of recent call-up’s Ian Happ (4:00) and Bradley Zimmer (8:30). Then analyze a plethora of surprising early season performances including Freddie Freeman (14:00), Jake Arrieta (21:00), Dallas Keuchel (26:00), Elvis Andrus (30:00), Miguel Sano (33:00), Aaron Altherr (33:00), Kyle Schwarber (39:00) and Keon Broxton (40:00). Finally, they break down the latest expert FAAB acquisitions including Jose Berrios (43:00), Eddie Butler (47:30), and Zach Godley (51:30).

Corey and Brendan comment on the defensive troubles and the general malaisethat have haunted the Cubs early on this year, as well as discuss the quality Eddie Butler start.

The Cardinals have gotten as hot as the Cubs have gone cold. As you might imagine, this has caused some consternation among Cubs fans. Eddie Butler makes his Cubs debut Friday night, which usually doesn't bode well for opposing hitters. His appearance comes courtesy of Brian Anderson's placement on the disabled list. He can pitch his butt off, but if the defense doesn't tighten up, it won't matter. Addison Russell and Jason Heyward also join Anderson on the DL, so that helps to explain the sloppy defense of late.

DFSR’s Doug Norrie and James Davis take to a packed MLB podcast discussing a full Friday night slate in baseball. For starters, they discuss Clayton Kershaw and his absurdly low $9800 price tag on FanDuel. They are daring you to play him even in Coors and they guys land on you basically being able to grin and bear it.  After him they discuss Rick Porcello, Johnny Cueto, Lance McCullers and more with other pitchers in decent upside spots tonight.  For stacks James makes the case for the Cardinals against Eddie Butler.

Hey everyone, welcome to episode 49 of the Creative Language Learning Podcast.The Good, The Bad and The StrugglingRoutines lapsing for the summer, looking forward to September, and permission to half-ass online courses in this week's catch-up with Lindsay and Kerstin. What's your Good, Bad and Struggling?We'd love to hear from you guys on this one. If you want to share what's good, bad and difficult in your languages right now, send your feedback to us. We read every one and your language news could make it to a show intro in the future.Simply do one of the following:1) go on Skype and leave a voice message for fluentlanguage2) or email us at podcast@fluentlanguage.co.uk - include a voice memo from your phone if you can, so we can feature your voice on the showTopic: Language Learning Can Bring World Peace Language is a beautiful caress that can make strangers melt into friends, but la gusgen is also a verbal door that can be closed in the face of outsiders. (Eddie Butler) We went for deep stuff, and discussed the many ways that language learning can improve the world. From individual peace of mind, via tolerance in your everyday life, to changing the outlook of your country.We found it felt wrong not to talk about moving abroad. Considering what's happening in Britain this year, the discussion turned to migration. Do people miss out when something foreign is added to the community? Our discussion might surprise you, because as always all isn't quite what it seems. And yes, we did say the B-word: Brexit.And what about language education in schools? If we believe that language learning creates world peace, should we make everyone learn as many languages as possible? The Power of LanguageFinally, we only need to give you one word that shows something very interesting: migrant. Even when you're not learning a foreign language, the way that people and media around us use language to shape opinions affects everyone's life. We touch on the idea that language can send signals about all of us, and make or break peace. In our discussion, Lindsay and I got as close as you can get to saying horrible words. But not all the way there.We hope you have a listen to find out more, and get in touch to tell us where you stand on language and world peace.Links and Resources Lingo Newydd, Welsh Learning Magazine Lindsay on IWTYAL and Olly IWTYAL on the Creative Language Learning Podcast Everyone's A Little Bit Racist by Avenue Q Babel, the Language Magazine is talking about how "migrant" as a word has changed BBC Article
