Lions tour: UK media insist Warren Gatland is gambling with inside combination
The travelling UK media believe British and Irish Lions coach Warren Gatland has taken a gamble by naming Owen Farrell and Johnny Sexton to start together as they look to square the test series against the All Blacks.
There appeared to be genuine surprise among some of the scribes after Gatland named his squad for the second test in Wellington on Saturday.
Tabloid The Daily Mirror believes Plan B, which has also seen a number of changes in the Lions pack, is very much a gamble and reaction to the tourists being outmuscled in the first test at Eden Park.
The Lions know they have to do an infinitely better job of securing the gain line having been bossed in the collisions at Eden Park, the Mirror wrote.
Where the risk comes is in picking Sexton at fly-half and moving Farrell to inside-centre opposite Sonny Bill Williams, as it means dropping the in-form Ben Teo.
When looking to build physical intensity it is unusual to cut the player who offered greater physicality and directness than any other Lion in Auckland.
Leading broadsheet The Times believes Gatland has gone for broke in his selections, particularly around the Farrell and Sexton combination.
Warren Gatland has implemented a radical change of direction for the British & Irish Lions by selecting Jonathan Sexton to start at fly half with Owen Farrell at inside centre for Saturdays decisive showdown with New Zealand, Alex Lowe wrote.
In one of the biggest selection decisions of his career, Gatland has sacrificed Ben Teo from the midfield in order to start Sexton and Farrell as twin playmakers behind a beefed-up pack as the Lions look to salvage the series.
Lowe believed Teo had very much paid the price for several blown try scoring opportunities in the first test.
Sexton and Farrell will offer an extra attacking kicking option in midfield, which should help the Lions in their quest to control field position in a way that they failed to last week.
The return of tour captain Sam Warburton was secondary in a lot of stories with the Sexton and Farrell combination the main focus.
The Guardians Robert Kitson thought Gatlands decision to start the pair was a by-product of how effective they were in the win over the Crusaders.
With the Lions having little option but to take the game to the All Blacks and get on the front foot, Gatland has sacrificed Ben Teos power at inside-centre for the 10-12 combination of Sexton and Farrell that has already shown flashes of promise on this tour.

HOW GOOD IS THE HERO 5 FOR SURF VLOGS? - Duration: 9:58.
Do you want to eat a banana?
No I don't!!
I can't eat bananas
Hey guys welcome back to another episode of my vlog
Today, I'm trying something different. I'm going to try and film this entire surf vlog with just my Hero 5
Usually do this when I'm going overseas when I'm traveling
I've never really done it before when I'm surfing
cause I usually have my Canon G7X
which has a zoom in focus that the Go Pro doesn't
I'm in Ibaraki today
and I'm here again
I love Ibaraki it's one of my favorite spots
I think last time I did a vlog it was like
Over there on the other side
But today I'm surfing in this left side
The waves are a little bit small
I checked one of these surf apps that I'm using
Today this is about 20 out of 100
and you need about 30 to 35 for pretty good conditions
I'm not sure if you see but it's really small today
But I've never surfed with my Hero 5 before
So I'm just going to take it out
Take some photos and film some stuff
So hopefully it should be good
To get to Ibaraki say from Shibuya
You need to take the metropolitan expressway
Which is also called the Shuto-Ko-Soku
and from there it changes to the
Joban Ko Soku which is the Joban expressway
Takes about 2 or 3 hours
Once you get to Ibaraki
You kind of have to take the back streets
Which is kind of in the back with the farms
It's a little bit tricky
You kind of have to follow the way just use google maps it's quite easy
Just look for Emerald Beach
This place costs about 500 yen or 5 bucks to park your car
There's an old lady over there who actually owns this place, and she'll come and collect money
Yeah, let's go and try it Go Pro 5
You're not going in?
I am
So today, I'm going to try this new mouth mount that I bought from Amazon
the one I was using
this one and
You can see that it's a little bit longer where it attaches to the Go Pro
the new one that I bought
This is orange one. It's a little bit shorter here
so when I duck dive or when I'm paddling it should be a lot easier
Yeah, so you can see doesn't need about a few centimeters difference
But that few centimeters I think could make
paddling and surfing a lot easier using these Go Pro mouth mounts
so got to give it a shot
the thing that's different is that this one's a little bit softer
where as this mouth mount is
on the black one is a lot harder, so
When I'm like moving it doesn't really shake I've got to test it out
This is a little bit more flimsy as you can see but and it's bright orange
Well the good thing about using the Hero 5
is that I can talk
I previously use a Hero 4
It was in the waterproof case and you can't really hear me
and I couldn't really talk
so now I can vlog and surf in the ocean
maybe
You should always stretch before you get surfing
so you don't get any cramps
and makes you more flexible too
and the next day it's like painful
so if you don't stretch it's even worse
It's quite sunny today
Surprisingly
It's supposed to be like rainy season
and it rains a lot
And weather surf conditions have been very random
So you might check yesterday and today might be good
But because of rainy season in the cloud and the winds are really strong
It changes like every day
So you never know. you actually have to be there
You always come here right?
not really
You ride any waves yet?
not really
Must wait for the big ones or it's tough
really
Have you been going surfing recently?
It's been 2 weeks
in Chigasaki?
Tsujido?
In Kugenuma
There's like no waves there though
Yeah it's been pretty small in Chiba too lately
I prefer to surf without filming anything
because it's tiring
I have to stop and play
wait for waves
make sure I don't hit my board
It's not as relaxing
But I wanted to test out the Hero 5 and with surfing today
when the waves are a little bit smaller
I don't want to lose it
Seems alright
but the battery life is going down pretty fast
It's only been like 30 minutes
it's almost one third of the way down
so another thing about Ibaraki
and why people might not come here is
because it's very close to FUKUSHIMA
It's 120km north of here
i'm a little bit worried too that the radiation might leak down here
I think it's okay ...
Now if you're wondering, what the water is like
It's currently 19 degrees
I'm wearing a 3mm full wet suit
which is pretty hot in this sunny weather
Well it is July. June sorry
July is just around the corner
and so is summer
man the surf is way too small today
have to like pump
hate days like these
I wish the surf would just be like huge all the time
Wouldn't that be nice
today really sucked
what a cute poncho
looks like little red riding hood
where should I press?
you don't need to press anything
it's super light
yeah it's a BARACUDA
I think it's wire inside
lefter flex
the tail has a delicate line
there's a channel there
is this fibre glass?
i think it's fibre glass
but the inside is EPS
how much is this?
it's 140,000 YEN for everything (about $1400)
The waves were not great today
I'm sorry guys didn't really surf many good waves
maybe tomorrow I'll try again...
think i'm going to go to an onsen now so
see you guys later!

CNN Student News - June 30, 2017 | Is Antibacterial Soap Safe? - Duration: 10:01.
Apple, Google, Microsoft, Twitter - what do they all have in common? Their bosses were
all at the White House yesterday. President Obama met with the heads of more than a dozen
tech industry leaders. Part of the meeting was about the industry possibly helping the
government with its I.T. problems, like the highly problematic rollout of the Obamacare
website. They also talked about spying. Technology executives recently asked the government to
change its spying practices. Details about secret surveillance programs were leaked by
Edward Snowden, a former National Security Agency workers. He`s in Russia now and asking
Brazil about asylum there. In the U.S., the programs that Snowden revealed are facing
a new challenge.
Six months after Edward Snowden revealed it to the world, a federal judge ruled the NSA
program that sweeps up Americans phone call records is likely unconstitutional. The judge
wrote, "I cannot imagine a more indiscriminate and arbitrary invasion than this systematic
and high-tech collection and retention of personal data on virtually every citizen.
Snowden described it as a vindication of his hacking, saying, "I acted on my belief that
the NSA mass surveillance program would not withstand a constitutional challenge. Today,
a secret program authorized by a secret court was, when exposed to the light of day, found
to violate Americans` rights.
Snowden remains hold up in Russia, avoiding charges in the U.S. of espionage. But a senior
NSA official floated (ph) un unlikely solution on CBS "60 Minutes" to get Snowden back here:
give him amnesty. An idea that White House quickly dismissed.
He should be returned to the United States as soon as possible where he will be accorded
all due process and protections in our system, so that`s our position and it hasn`t changed.
Still, the court`s decision is a body blow for the administration.
Well, it is just an absolutely scathing rejection of the NSA program that the government has
defended so strongly. And if it`s worth noting that the judge was a George W. Bush- appointee,
someone who would work for Republicans in Congress, hardly a screaming liberal.
Jim Sciutto, CNN, Washington.
See, if you can I.D me. I`m a type of microscopic organism. I only have one cell, and I don`t
have a nucleus. I`m found almost everywhere on earth, including inside people, plants
and animals. I`m mostly harmless, but sometimes I can cause diseases.
I`m bacteria, and I come in different shapes and sizes.
Chance are you`ve seen a product like soap that claims to get rid of bacteria. The antibacterial
industry sells more than a billion dollars in products every year. But the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration says the companies that make those products might need to make
some changes.
You see them everywhere - these antibacterial soaps with killer claims. But these labels
might become a thing of the past. The Food and Drug Administration says antibacterial
soaps may actually be harmful. They could pose health risks, such as bacterial resistance
or hormonal effects.
The most common ingredient in antibacterial soaps, Triclosan.
There are some impacts that Triclosan may have on the hormone system, which could effect
developing bodies like in children and infants. If it`s not doing any good, then why are we
putting this potentially harmful chemical in our homes?
That`s right. The FDA says there is no evidence antibacterial soaps prevent illness any better
than plain old soap and water. So, the agency has put this demand on soap manufacturers:
prove their antibacterial products are safe and better than regular soap, and if you can`t,
scrub off those claims.
Soap manufacturers say they are up to the task.
Manufacturers have presented such data in the past, and with this new proposed rule
that`s out, we`ll have another opportunity to present newer research that shows, again,
a germ-killing benefit of antibacterial soap. And data that does show that this soaps are
safe.
The annual Christmas parade in La Jolla, California - one group tried to get the name Christmas
removed from the event. They failed. Here is some of your comments about the story.
Tim asks, why should a small group affect the wishes of the majority? Keep it Christmas,
La Jolla. Tanner thinks they should have a separate parade for people who don`t celebrate
Christmas. Anai thinks they should change the name so that all religions can feel welcomed.
Kevin says, if it`s inclusive of other people, that`s sharing the holiday spirit, not fighting
over one word in a name. Nicholas says at his school we can`t talk about Christmas.
We say the holidays. Why can`t the parade do the same?" Rebecca says, this has nothing
to do with the parade, and everything to do with atheists wanting to remove any religion
whatsoever from public viewer. And from Emily, Christmas is a big holiday for a lot of people.
And if you don`t celebrate it, that`s OK. But that doesn`t mean that nobody else can."
We mentioned Brazil earlier. That country`s also hosting next year`s World Cup soccer
tournament. It`s a lot to do to get ready for the month-long event, including building
stadiums for the matches in different cities, but work at one site is suspended.
A Brazilian judge ordered a partial halt to construction on the stadium in the jungle
city of Manaus. After a worker plunged to his death. Basically, prosecutors say, they
want all work involving heights to be halted until the construction company Andrade Gutierrez,
can come up with the convincing worker safety report, which means they`ve got engineers
on the site, from the prosecutor`s office, from the company determining what needs to
be done and how the problems can be resolved. Only then will the work on the roofing continue.
This is, after all, the second worker to fall to his death at this very same site, and the
fifth worker to die on one of the many construction sites for the 12 World Cup stadiums. This
is raising questions about worker safety and whether all of these construction companies
should be a little more focused on how to keep their workers safe, and not so focused
on the deadlines. Already, the six stadium still in the construction phase, have said
they will fail to meet the end of December deadline set by FIFA. Not it looks like at
least the Arena Amazonia could be pushed back even further. Shasta Darlington, CNN, Sao
Paolo.
Wednesday is when we wander worldwide for the "Roll Call." And we are starting in the
Arctic Circle, in Canada`s northwest territories we`ll find the land of the midnight sun, Inuvek
(ph), and the east three school.
Then it`s over to Europe where we check in with the American school of Milan in Italy.
Macao was a special administrative region of China. And it`s home to the international
school of Macao, which is the last stop in today`s around the world roll.
We`ve been bringing you career connection segments from professionals all year long.
Today, we are talking to a mayor about his involvement in local government.
I became involved in politics to try to influence what my town became as a group. Local government
is not a spectator sport. It`s something that you participate in, and it`s something that
really with minimal involvement you can have a big impact on your local government. Politics
is really just the people skill, and wherever you are in dealing with people, politics is
the skill of dealing with people. And so, politics is not something you learn in law
school, it`s not something you learn in medical school or in any school. It`s a - it`s politics
is what you`ve learned from working with people every day and trying to bring a group together
to a joint decision.
It`s very easy to enter into politics on a volunteer basis. You can volunteer in a campaign
at whatever age, at whatever level. Politicians are always looking for folks to help in their
campaign. It`s a great learning experience. It`s a great way to learn your community.
Whether you are running a city or campaigning, you`ve got to lead people. You`ve got to bring
a team together. People`s skills are at the root of it. It`s a good career. It`s not a
career that you are going to become a billionaire at, but you`ll be involved in the community,
people will appreciate what you are doing, and you`ll enjoy your work.
All right. We`ve been looking to break our pun record, and we found a video to make it
work. This is Waffles, the Cat, and he`s waffling over a jump from the snow covered van to that
icy roof. Come on now, Waffles, you`ve got this. Here it comes. There it goes. Waffles
might want to wipe away the embarrassment after that failed attempt. Thanks to this
YouTube video, he won`t slip into obscurity, because even if the cat couldn`t get his footing
his video is gaining traction. If Waffles is the first to attempt this, he`s in the
vanguard. That kind of cataclysmic catastrophe is snow way to make a name for yourself. Waffles
could bat around other ideas. He could try a catapult. You` have to let Waffles iron
out the details on that. It`d be an ice edition, and Waffles might be feline ready to leap
at another chance to advance his name. That`s a different tale. For now, he`ll pause, catch
his breath and ponder his next move and we`ll do the same, trying to think of more but cats(inaudible)
my tongue. Have a great day!
