Togetherness and The Good Wife actress Amanda Peet, 45, is back with a new TV comedy. In Brockmire, which premieres April 5 on IFC, Peet plays Jules, the hard-drinking, strong-willed owner of a minor league baseball team, the Morristown Frackers, who hires a disgraced major league announcer, Jim Brockmire (Hank Azaria), to call the plays.

How would you describe your character, Jules?

For an alcoholic, shes got her s together.

Was the appeal of Brockmire its craziness?

Definitely. I like things that are a little bit off. And Im a huge fan of Hank.

Did you and Hank know each other or did you have to build your chemistry?

We knew each other a little bit. I dont know if chemistry is something you build or if its something that just kind of happens or doesnt happen.

Does Hank make you laugh so hard that you break up during filming?

There were a few times where I was really scared that I was going to ruin a take because I was laughing so hard, so the answer is yes, he really makes me laugh.

Its funny, but is it also a kind of love story?

Its a love story, for sure. One of the reasons Jim and Jules connect is they both love baseball so much and they both love drinking. I think theyre really attracted to each other.

Are you comfortable with the shows nudity?

Sure. If the writing is good, then I figure out a way to get comfortable. I am definitely never really excited to take my clothes off these days, but if the writing is good enough, Im game.

What do you mean when you say these days?

The truth is I wasnt that comfortable in my 20s either, but things have gone downhill, literally.

Jules is really passionate about bringing her team back to glory. Is there something in your life that you feel that way about, that youre a cheerleader for?

Sure, but maybe not in the same way. There are plenty of things I wish I could fight for. Im definitely not as scrappy as she is.

So these things that you want to fight for, are they political issues or things for your kids?

Im probably a little bit more like a psycho lioness when it comes to my kids.

What kind of sports spectator are you?

My dad was a big football player in college, and my sister was sort of a tomboy, and they watch football religiously. When they come to my house, theres football on all the time. I never got the sports bug, so it was a verysteep learning curve coming onto Brockmire. When I watch a baseball game, I dont understand whats interesting about it. Nobody ever makes it to first base. I mean, for, like, long periods of time, no ones making it to first base.

How much do you actually know about baseball?

Nothing. I watched Ken Burns documentary, I read some and I looked at the documentary about the Portland Mavericks, who were a minor league team. I feel like I didnt retain that much. I still had to ask Hank, Am I supposed to be happy when he runs to first base, or sad?

Have you ever lobbied your husband, writer-producer David Benioff, for a role on Game of Thrones?

I try really hard, especially when Ive had a few drinks. Ill put on my English accent, such as it is, in front of [creators] Dan [Weiss] and David. They just act really embarrassed for me.

Can you talk about what Togetherness meant to you and how hard it was when HBO canceled it?

I just never felt that way before. It was really the right chemistry between me and the show creators. I felt like they really wanted to pass me the ball. I felt really trusted by them and I really trusted them too. I havent felt that way in a really long time, and I think because Im a middle-aged woman trying to make it in Hollywood, it was like I won the lottery.

Do you find that the roles are better on TV now for women of a certain age than in movies?

I think that in order to get a movie green-lit, you have to have a certain amount of star wattage and I dont have it, so Im not getting roles that are interesting. Most of the roles I read for, for a 45-year-old woman, theyre pretty boring and flat. TV has juicier parts.

Along the those lines, after doing 2012, you said it made you realize you dont want to play the lovely mom anymore? Why is that?

Theres nothing to bite into. Its really fun being in a movie thats a Friday night skicker, where theres going to be a big premiere and theyre going to fly you to Tokyo. It all feels really exciting. But the truth is thats not going to get you anywhere.

Youll be fine. The movies fine. It will be serviceable, and like I said, you could be lovely. But lovely is not a playable action. The thing that Sarah Paulson and I always ask each other is, When the alarm goes off at 4:45 in the morning, what are you going to feel? We didnt used to ask each other that question. Its a very important question.

Amanda Peet on Baseball, Brockmire, Nudity and Chemistry With Co-Stars - Parade

In Deadpool 2, Domino will make her big screen debut. Atlanta starZazie Beetz will bring that character to life, and co-creator Rob Liefeld couldnt be happier about it. In an interview with ComicBook.com, he praised the actress as one of the only people who could truly keep up with Ryan Reynolds.

Domino is all about as an actress and as the character that is going to be on the screen you already allude to it, its all about the sass, Liefeld explained. You gotta understand: youre gonna go up against Wade Wilson, who in this movie is Ryan Reynolds.

Im telling you, having been around Ryan multiple times that mouth cannot be stopped, he added. I dont think he can say the jokes as fast as they are backed up in his head.

Some of these people be like, Oh hey, this girl should have been Domino, and pick out actress A through Z, and Id be like, Im not sure that they can keep up with him. And oh my gosh, Im not sure that Ryans gonna keep up with her, he said. I think Ryan Reynolds is gonna have to work hard to keep up with Zazie. I mean, wow. You just go, That chemistry is going to be spectacular. And thats what it comes down to is the chemistry with these characters.

RELATED:Dominos Deadpool 2 Debut Parodied By Ryan Reynolds

Earlier this month, Liefeld praisedBeetzs casting on his Instagram. Welcome, Zazie Beetz, to the wonderful world of #Deadpool!! Liefeld wrote in his post. You are everything I could have hoped for!!

Introduced in 1992 in Marvel Comics X-Force #8, Domino was created by Fabian Nicieza and Rob Liefeld. She is a genetically engineered mutant conceived as part of a secret United States government program called Project Armageddon devoted to creating perfect human weapons. In the case of Domino, who is one of the few survivors of the project, it worked. She can subtly, psychically alter random variables in her line of sight to create the illusion of extreme luck. Using her abilities, Domino can pull off near-impossible physical feats and is nigh unkillable. She can also alter the perceived luck of her foes, causing their weapons to malfunction or their shots to misfire.

Directed by David Leitch (John Wick), the as-yet untitled Deadpool sequel will once again star Ryan Reynolds, joined (so far) by Zazie Beetz as Domino, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Karan Soni as Dopinder and, presumably, Stefan Kapii as the voice of Colossus; and is expected for release in 2018.

Beetz's Domino Has 'Spectacular' Chemistry With Deadpool, Says ... - CBR (blog)

Michael Parks fought to win a battle along the boards and chipped the puck to Chris Francis.

Francis had a look at the net, but passed to Nolan LaPorte for an even better chance and a game-winning goal.

The connection between the trio of Quad-City Mallards continues to grow.

"We've been together all year and once you find chemistry, it makes the game a lot easier," LaPorte said. "I think, with Francis' veteran leadership and Parksy just being an awesome player, it's been a good combination for us."

It's hard to pick one top line for the playoff-bound Mallards this season, who have been successful through their balance.

The Mallards have seven players with 40-plus points, including four with 50 or more, as well as four 20-plus goal scorers. At this point last season, the team had just two players with 40-plus points and one with 20-plus goals.

"They're all pieces of the puzzle," head coach Phil Axtell said. "Guys are playing a team game ... they're starting to have a great buy-in as a whole and that's what we need."

Though balance has been at the forefront, there's no denying the impact of LaPorte, Francis and Parks has had on the team. The trio has combined for nearly a third of the team's goals and since the Mallards tabbed Axtell as their coach in January, has been the team's most consistent scoring threat.

Francis is tied for the team lead with 53 points, while Parks leads the team with 26 goals and LaPorte has added 14 goals and 27 assists.

LaPorte and Parks are rookies, while Francis is a veteran of the ECHL who has played in the Kelly Cup championship back in 2012 with the Las Vegas Wranglers. Having that veteran influence has helped the two rookies acclimate quickly.

"It makes the game a lot easier, it slows the game down for us," LaPorte said. "He's been around for years, he's been everywhere and he's played a lot of different game styles. It's good to have him there on your line and after a shift, come back and he'll say a word or two to you about whether you should be here or there. It's like having a second coach with you on your line."

Flanked by two rookies has also been extremely beneficial for Francis, a seventh-year veteran center. The 27-year-old has 24 goals and 29 assists, potentially in line for career numbers in both if he has a strong close to the season.

"They definitely keep me young," Francis said. "It's good, we all compliment each other pretty well. We all have different things we're good at. I always tell them I'm going to slow the game down and Parksy's speed and LaPorte's all-over (ability) ... we're just comfortable right now, we know where each other's at on the ice and that's something you want to have."

The line combination has been together most of the season, but has really come on strong in the last seven games. LaPorte was gone for three games, on a professional tryout agreement with the Iowa Wild, but since his return, that trio has combined for 11 goals and 12 assists.

"It doesn't matter who you put on your line, you've got to be going every game, but yes, having Nolan back in the lineup definitely gives me and Michael a boost," Francis said. "Nolan's been the same all year for us, we can always count on him. He's gritty, goes to the corners and gets the puck. He's got a great shot when he wants to shoot the puck but he's always in the dirty areas and he gets the puck to me and Parksy and lets us make the plays and we can always count on him being responsible out there for us."

Even though that line has been productive, Axtell isn't averse to breaking it up like he did Wednesday night. With Justin Kovacs on personal leave and Jack Nevins out with a lower body injury, Parks was partnered with Adam Gilmour and Chase Lang.

Parks responded with his first career hat trick.

After being held scoreless for eight games, Parks now has five goals in his last five.

"When hes getting the opportunity to shoot hes shooting," Axtell said. "Hes getting the interior of their zone and staying away from the perimeter and shots from that area are more likely to go in."

There's still some question marks for the lineup tonight when the Mallards take on Fort Wayne, but it's a good sign of the adaptability of the team that Axtell can move the pieces around without fear of a letdown. The team's balance again remains its biggest strength.

"We've got to keep going," Francis said. "We can't just look back at the last game and think since we were good the last game we can take the night off. This team needs everybody going every night and that's how we're going to be successful."

For this article, I thought I'd introduce another chemistry applicationspecifically, BKChem, a free chemical drawing program. As opposed to many other chemistry applications, BKChem provides both a nice GUI for constructing molecules and a set of chemical analysis tools to look at the properties of the newly constructed molecule.

Most distributions should have a package available to make installation easierfor example, Debian-based distributions can install BKChem with the following command:

Once BKChem is installed, you can start it either from the menu entry or by executing the command bkchem from a terminal window.

When it first opens, you'll see a blank screen where you can start your chemical construction.

Figure 1. When you first start BKChem, you get a blank canvas to start building your molecule.

If you have a previously created molecule, you can load it by clicking the FileLoad menu item, which will load the data into a new tab, or you can click the FileLoad to the same tab menu option to load it into the currently active tab.

BKChem also can import data from other file formats. If you click FileImport, you'll see that you can import files with CML, CML2 or Molfile formats.

If you want to start by building your own molecule, several menus of building blocks are available. They are laid out as a pair of rows, just below the menu listings at the top of the window. The top row of icons selects which list of icons will be available in the second row. The first icon in the first row is simply an arrow, allowing you to select objects within your molecule so you can edit their properties. The next icon pulls up the row of drawing elements where you can start to draw your new molecule.

There are several choices in terms of line thicknesses, styles and bond angles, and you can create a chain of elements simply by clicking on the end of an existing line segment.

Once you have the basics of your structure laid out, you'll want to edit the details next. To do this, click on the first icon again (captioned with "edit"), and then click on the structure element you want to edit. This is where having a proper mouse is a must, as you need to click with the middle button on your mouse to pull up the edit panel.

Figure 2. You can edit an element by clicking the middle mouse button. The menu you get depends on the type of element you are editing.

Paul George was automatic Wednesday night in Boston, pouring in 37 points on 11 of 26 shooting, but it wasnt enough, as the Celtics held off the Pacers in the fourth quarter for a 109-100 victory. It was another tough night away from home for Indiana, as they fell to 11-25 on the road -- the worst mark in the league among the teams currently in the playoff picture.

After the game, George was very complimentary of the winning team, especially in regards to the chemistry the team has. If you look at their roster, everybody knows what to expect out of everybody, George said of the Celtics. Theres never a moment where a guy is like, What kind of shot are you taking? Or, What are you doing? They are beyond that. And thats the chemistry were trying to make.

He added, that the Pacers have a little way to go.

With Georges situation in Indiana very much in flux, this was interesting to hear from him, as he sounds envious of the Celtics roster situation, and more importantly, doesnt exactly seem thrilled about whats going on in Indiana. Though to be fair, he did say this after a loss, so perhaps theres some frustration seeping in.

In any case, it will be interesting to continue monitoring the George situation as it moves forward. The Celtics, of course, were reportedly interested in making a move for the All-Star at the deadline, and George has reportedly shown plenty of interest in joining the Lakers. Then theres the fact that if George makes an All-NBA team, he could get the most money by staying in Indiana after next year.

Was this simply George complimenting another team after they played well? Or was this an attempt at making his frustration with the situation in Indiana known to the front office after he delivered a brilliant performance, but was let down by those around him? Perhaps a combination of both?

On the one hand, you dont want to make too much out of a postgame quote, but this certainly adds another layer to the ongoing drama around the future of both George and the Pacers.

The Sun Devils are heading into their most difficult competition and will need cohesiveness to stay afloat

Freshman Maud Koopman passesagainstthe University of Pacific on Sunday, March 20, 2016 at the Mona Plummer Aquatic Complex in Tempe, AZ. ASU water polo won 5-3.

At the midway point in the season, the ASU womens water polo team is sitting high in the rankings.

ASU (17-4)began the season as the No. 5 team in the nation andhave only slightly fluctuatedin its ranking since beginning the season.The Sun Devils have remained at No. 6 for the majority of the season, dropping only onceto No. 7 briefly in early March.

Thus far, the Sun Devils have kepttheir reputation as a top-notch program. Junior attackerLena Mihailovic is currently leading the team with 43 goals, while junior centerAlkistis Benekou just reached the top-10 all-time scoring list for ASU water polo.

The Sun Devils have alsoput together 13 top-25 victories, falling only to four of the nation's best teams in USC, Stanford, Cal and Michigan.

Head coachTodd Clapper said the team isfindingtheir ownrhythm and are changing their practicing styles.

I think we're hoping that we can get ourselves sorted out, Clapper said. We're starting to practice more towards how our opponents are playing rather than what we need to do.

Practice is thekey for ASU to continue itssuccess, however, the chemistry built outside of the water is equallyimportant to creating a cohesive team.

That chemistry is already noticeable across the roster. Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, but each playerbuilds off one another.

We have such great chemistry and we've started becoming tougher, Benekou said.

In the coming weeks, the Sun Devils must ensure thattheir chemistry continues to translate in the water.

We have some important games coming up against Cal and others, Benekou said. I think it's going to be that defining moment to decide whether or not we make it to NCAAs.

ASU will face three top-four opponents back to back with Cal March 25, USC April 1 and UCLA on April 8.

Thecoming weeks will undoubtedly be the most difficult for the Sun Devils, butBenekou said she isconfident in the program.

I think we're going to be ready at the perfect time, Benekou said.

Junior goalkeeper Mia Rycraw set goals for the team early in the seasonand not much has changed.

Our goal is to win the NCAA Championship this season, and in conjunction with that, we are working on much smaller goals every day, Rycraw said. Our team already has such great chemistry, but I want this season's teamwork to go even further than last season's.

The No. 6 Sun Devils will head out to California this Saturday, where they will take on No. 4 Cal at 1 p.m.

SANTA CLARA (KRON) Theyve been doubted, theyve been denied, but one thing thats always remained the same is the chemistry.

After finishing the 2018-19 season 4-12, the San Francisco 49ers got to work during the offseason in hopes of a better year.

Fast-forward to nearly a year later, the Niners are 13-3 and preparing for the NFC Championship.

Its been fun watching this team have fun. Every game theyre proving somebody wrong, and theyre doing it with a smile on their face.

Former 49ers President and CEO Carmen Policy agrees.

He said this team is a very special group and it could be the start of something much bigger.

The present day Niners remind me of the team that ultimately was coming together under Bill Walsh, Policy said. But I think theyre more talented.

This group brings newbies and veterans together to create something very different and very dynamic.

Jimmy Garoppolo has been doubted from the beginning. Critics said he could never be the quarterback that takes his team to a Super Bowl, and now hes just one game shy.

San Franciscos defense is remarkable and even dangerous now that key players are healthy.

But skill cant stand alone to make a team special, so what is it about this group?

They got personality, theyre fun to follow, theyre really a very special group that make each other better both on the field and off the field, Policy said. I dont know how you beat something like that.

That personality and chemistry didnt just compile overnight.

Head Coach Kyle Shanahan said he and his staff have been trying to really implement it over the years.

Its something weve been trying to establish here, Shanahan said. I felt like we had that here a lot better than I expected the first couple of years and it didnt result in winning which was always disappointing.

Although the last couple of seasons didnt go their way, the Niners didnt give up.

Thats something we always talked about. Man we got the right guys, they wont stop working, they dont point fingers so it said a lot about our guys, Shanahan said. Sometimes we almost worried that we need some worse guys cause were not winning. But we stuck with it, we brought in a few guys who thought the same way as our other guys and some difference makers with the pass rush and some guys on offense too. Our teams been like this since the beginning.

Veteran cornerback Richard Sherman agreed and said the only thing thats really changed is the outcome of the season.

But how do you create team chemistry with continuous losing seasons?

We had it before we were winning This is a family atmosphere and guys care about one another, Sherman said. Guys go out and fight for one another. So that is really cool and its really special to be a part of.

OK, great. A team acting like a team. Yippee.

Well, the chemistry goes far beyond the guys battling on the field.

Its definitely good to know that your players like each other, but what separates this organization from others is how coaches and executives respect one another as well.

Defensive coordinator Robert Saleh talked about his relationship with Shanahan versus other coaches hes worked with.

Theres a difference between attacking and challenging. Kyle is phenomenal at challenging his coaches to always achieve more. Ive been around coaches who attack people and they get nothing, Saleh said. The way Kyle coaches is he challenges to do and look beyond beyond the box, look outside the box, look outside what youre comfortable with so you can continually get better. Much different than the tone that a lot of coaches that Ive been around where they just attack you and demean you for one reason or another.

The respect goes even deeper to top executives, like General Manager John Lynch.

And when outsiders can see that respect, its there to stay and doesnt go anywhere.

Kyle and John are very similar, the working relationship they have is phenomenal. You can tell that theyre locked at the hip. Even in the event they may disagree, it is a very respectful conversation, Saleh said. They really do a good job uniting and unifying the entire building. So the scouts, coaches, everybody is all on the same page of what is being asked of them. The message is very clear. I cant tip my hat off enough to those two and how they lead us and the way they treat one another for the entire building to see that.

When Lynch is around, hes called John not Mr. Lynch or anything like that. Garoppolo also said he refers to Coach Shanahan as Kyle.

The QB said that speaks to how the atmosphere is within the organization.

Were all in the same playing field, were all in this together, Garoppolo said. If everyone acts the same or treats everyone the same, I think its a good atmosphere.

While Policy enjoys reminiscing about his Super Bowl years with the 49ers, he described the moment in last weeks game against the Minnesota Vikings that he had never seen before.

Nick Bosa was just laying on the field after he sacked Minnesotas Kirk Cousins. Fans didnt know if Bosa had the wind knocked out of him or if he was badly injured.

You heard the fans cheering Bosa! Bosa! and you heard what he said. He was adorable, Policy said. He said I just laid there and listened to it for a while, I kind of liked it, never have I seen anything like wishing him to stand up and be totally healed.

That moment was huge for the 49ers and its guys like Bosa who really bring the energy. And that energy is contagious.

49ers linebacker Fred Warner said the team treats every week like its just another game.

I think the pressure comes from if you make the situation bigger than it is. Its funny, we were all talking about it just the other day how last game it kind of just felt like another week even though the stakes were high and theres a lot on the line. We dont treat it as such, Warner said. We treat it like its another week. The routine doesnt change, our preparation doesnt change. The same could be said this week. Were just going about business but were having fun doing it.

Fun, but focused.

The team hosts Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, Jan. 19 at Levis Stadium. The winner will head to Miami for the Super Bowl to take on the winner of the Titans-Chiefs matchup.

49ers team chemistry translates onto the field - FOX61 Hartford

A team of chemists at the University of Konstanz, Germany, has managed to synthesise one of the most complex natural products ever isolated: canataxpropellane. The research could lead to more efficient syntheses of the taxane family of compounds, which includes the anticancer drug Taxol (paclitaxel).

Taxanes were originally found in extracts of the Pacific yew tree (Taxus brevifolia) and since Taxols discovery, over 500 different taxanes have been isolated from Taxusspecies in a hunt for other medicinal compounds. The densely functionalised structure of canataxpropellane has always tantalised researchers, who wondered how its tighter, more congested scaffold might affect its anticancer activity. However, chemists have never sourced enough to test its bioactivity, and its total synthesis has remained elusive because of the formidable synthetic challenges posed by its structure.

A heptacyclic cage-like structure, twelve contiguous stereocentres, and six contiguous all-carbon quaternary centres these are each significant challenges in and of themselves, explains Sadie Otte, from Claremont Colleges in California in the US, who was not involved in the work. Phil Baran, at Scripps Research in La Jolla, US, adds that compounds with this level of functionalisation not only are challenging from a planning standpoint, the actual execution is always stymied by problems, from unanticipated reactivity to selectivity issues.

Now, the team led by Tanja Gaich has prepared the intricate taxane in just under 30 steps. Gaich explains that overcoming the routes planning and execution challenges tested the teams ingenuity and patience: Sometimes, we needed really aggressive deprotection conditions that almost destroyed our molecule, but it was the only way we found around it. In fact, the researchers came close to giving up at the very first reaction finding the precise conditions for that DielsAlder transformation was quite tedious, explains Gaich. The diene we used is very unstable, it either led to decomposition or self-polymerisation.

The researchers also prepared enantiomerically pure ()-canataxpropellane. Developing the chiral version of the route took the researchers two additional months in the lab. But this extra challenge also led the team to discover a new chiral directing group for the asymmetric DielsAlder reaction, when other chirality-inducing solutions Lewis acids, iminium catalysis just didnt work. When we thought of bulky, chiral siloxanes we hit the spot, says Gaich. These protecting groups also allowed the team to separate the two diastereomers using column chromatography instead of HPLC, making multi-gram scales easier to tackle. And obtaining decagrams of some intermediates is key to get canataxpropellane in quantities suitable for biological activity studies, explains Otte.

Both Baran and Otte agree that the synthesis strikingly elegant. Canataxpropellane is at the limits of complexity, says Baran, who also thinks this new route gives hope for accomplishing a short and scalable synthesis of taxanes, including a more efficient route to Taxol itself.

Canataxpropellane also belongs a family of around 30 cyclotaxanes that have never been prepared before. So the teams synthesis could become the starting point towards synthesising all these products: We could now selectively fragment some of the bonds to obtain its other cousins, and hopefully understand the relationship between a constrained structure and biological activity, explains Gaich.

Cooper boys enter postseason on...

ABILENE, TX - After the 2014 season, Cooper boys soccer still hadn't won a district title.

Fast forward to 2017, and talk about a turnaround. This week, the Coogs enter the postseason as three-time district champs.

Cooper completed its district title last week with a 9-1 win over Lake View -- a total team effort as the Cougars not only won the 4-5A crown, but did so going a perfect 12-0.

Our communication and as well as how well we've gotten along with each other both on and off the field," said senior Pedro Lira about how this team is different than years past.

That included two shootout wins over favored Lubbock Monterey, and the team now is focused on eliminating the recent trend of early playoff losses.

Cooper kicks things off against Amarillo Palo Duro in Frenship on Friday, and with success being a norm now, the team finds advantages within this year.

"A lot of these guys experienced this the past two years, added head coach Lalo Munoz, who is in his 14th year of coaching.

They know what it takes to get there and know what it takes to win that first playoff game. The experience factor a long with the chemistry factor should allow us to have a better opportunity to win that first game," he said.

The three most successful teams that LeBron James has ever played for were the 2015-16 Cleveland Cavaliers along with both the 2011-12 and 2012-13 Miami Heat. While each of those teams were able to secure an NBA championship and stack wins during the regular-season, one key characteristic they also shared was chemistry throughout the locker room while in pursuit of those rings.

LeBrons three title teams got along well with each other off the court during those seasons and won big because of it. If you followed those groups closely, its difficult to dismiss the similarities they seem to share so far with this years Los Angeles Lakers from that same chemistry perspective. After the 136-113 win over the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday that extended L.A.s record to 20-3, for example, veteran forward Jared Dudley posted the following pictures from the team plane that seemed to highlight a genuine camaraderie.

Dudley didnt just post the final photo that featured each of his teammates who made the trip to Rip City. In a move that might have been similarly made by a 2015-16 Cavalier named Richard Jefferson, Dudley kept it light and fun by also posting a picture of his teammates preparing to take the shot that eventually hit social media.

Its one small example of a characteristic like team chemistry that is impossible to quantify except for the fact that youre able to recognize it sometimes if youre paying attention. For anyone who has paid attention to LeBrons teams over the years, this iteration of the James Gang appears to have those positive team chemistry characteristics for days. Just how far it will take them remains to be seen, but theres a number of reasons to be bullish on this years Lakers so far including the simple fact that they appear to like each other.

When Jameis Winston drops back to pass this season, hell almost certainly know where No. 11 is on the field. While he and his new wide receiver, DeSean Jackson, arent familiar enough to read each others mind yet, the pair have succeeded in jumpstarting an on-field relationship that the Buccaneers believe could be instrumental in a push towards the postseason.

WATCH: WEDNESDAY'S OTA HIGHLIGHTS

Yeah, we already have that chemistry down pat now, Winston said during a press conference after the Buccaneers first OTA practice on Tuesday.

Getting on the same page with Jackson has been a priority of Winstons, and it appears just as important to the veteran wide receiver. OTAs are voluntary, and Jackson opted to skip out on the first two weeks of the Redskins workouts a year ago. But he was in the building for Day 1 with his new team.

Its going great, Jackson said of his budding relationship with Winston. Im excited about it. Its still early. We have still been getting some good work in, so Im looking forward to once training camp [starts] and July, August and getting ready for the season. That is what I look forward to.

Although the two hadnt been able to practice together at team facilities, Winston and Jackson have been in touch since Tampa Bay signed Jackson as a free agent. From what hes seen so far, Jackson has been impressed with the Bucs third-year quarterback.

READ: FIVE TAKEAWAYS FROM TUESDAY'S PRACTICE

He has a strong mentality and hes a worker, Jackson said. Hes one of the guys out there, he is a big-time vocal guy. If someone is not doing something right, he is going to get at them. So, as that being your franchise quarterback, that is the first thing you would need in a quarterback. A vocal guy and someone that is not too shy to speak their mind and if you see a guy that is not doing something right, tell them about it. Its not like hes just barking and not showing. Hes out there actually barking and hes working.

Hes one of the first out there. Hes going to be running around from drill to drill. His excitement, his camaraderie with the team, its what you need in a quarterback. I think he has that and thats why this franchise has him as their starting quarterback.

The on-field results appear to echo what each player has said. Jackson ran a handful of deep routes against Vernon Hargreaves on Tuesday and caught a deep touchdown pass during Wednesday's workout. To watch his catch, click the video below.

COLUMBUS, Ohio State officials will oversee a sweeping survey of the states water supply to test for potentially harmful, man-made chemicals by the end of next year, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWines office announced Monday.

The state EPA will coordinate testing with 1,500 local public water systems that provide water to 90% of Ohioans, while the state health department will work with local health departments on reaching out to the rest of Ohioans who get their water from private sources.

The survey is looking to detect per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), a family of 4,000 chemicals which some studies have linked to harmful health effects. If testing reveals PFA contamination, state officials will help local officials formulate a response, according a statewide action plan released Monday.

The announcement comes nearly two months after DeWine called for the plan.

We must fully evaluate the prevalence of PFAS in Ohios drinking water to protect public health and the states natural resources, DeWine said in a Monday statement. This plan is the first step in learning if the chemicals have a widespread presence."

PFAs have been used for decades in stain- and water-resistant fabrics and carpeting, cleaning products, paints, and fire-fighting foams. And in some instances, theyve been federally approved for limited use in cookware, food packaging and processing, according to the FDA.

They have been referred to as forever chemicals since they do not break down easily in the environment or in the human body.

While scientific research into the health effects of PFAS exposure is still developing, some studies have shown risks could include liver damage, thyroid disease, elevated cholesterol, decreased fertility and small decreases in birthweight, among other issues.

Last year, when DeWine was Ohio attorney general, he sued chemical giant DuPont, alleging that a company plant near Parkersburg, West Virginia dumped a PFAS chemical called c8 into the Ohio River since the 1950s despite knowing of the health risks it caused.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has established a health advisory level of 70 parts per trillion for PFAS in drinking water. But earlier this month, DeWine and 14 other governors sent a letter to both the U.S. Senate and House Armed Services Committees calling for more federal action against PFAS contamination in and around military bases.

Some states have already set or are considering setting drinking-water limits far lower than that.

A copy of the states action plan can be viewed here. The state also has set up a website, https://epa.ohio.gov/pfas, with more information about PFAS. The site includes information about health risks, prevalence and options for drinking water home-treatment options.

According to the American Chemical Society, emphasis in the selection process is on work characterized by depth, originality, and scientific significance.

"I can think of no better recipient than Peter," said Wesley Stites, chair of the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. "He is well-deserving of this honor, and is in great company past recipients of this award include multiple Nobel Prize winners as well."

Pulay joined the university in 1982 and retired in 2016. He is among the top 300 most highly cited living chemists in the world, with one of his publications cited 3,905 times and five others each cited more than 1,000 times. His total body of work has been cited more than 27,000 times and he holds the title of "Citation Classic" by the Institution of Scientific Information.

"We are incredibly proud to have him represent our university, college and department," Stites said.

Prior to his retirement, Pulay was a distinguished professor and held the Roger Bost Professorship of Chemistry and Biochemistry.

Pulay is considered by his peers to be one of the top five researchers in his field. He has received numerous honors including the Medal of the International Academy of Quantum Molecular Sciences, the Alexander von Humboldt Senior Scientist Award and the Schredinger Medal of the World Association of Theoretical and Computational Chemists.

Early in his career he developed techniques for determining the shape and size of molecules that would permanently change the way scientists study matter.

His approach is now widely used by theoretical chemists around the world, and the Royal Swedish Academy credited this work to being crucial in a 1998 Nobel Prize.

WASHINGTON Scientists who developed products that have led to significant advancements in human health, technology, the food supply, and the environment, will be inducted into a scientific Hall of Fame later this summer, becoming the newest Heroes of Chemistry, an honor bestowed by the American Chemical Society (ACS), the worlds largest scientific society.

Through the 2017 ACS Heroes of Chemistry program, we are honoring scientists from Bristol-Myers Squibb, Corning, Dow Chemical, DuPont Crop Protection, Genentech, and Merck whose risk-taking and drive to innovate have contributed to the advancement of the human condition, says Allison Campbell, ACS president. Their creative spirit, commitment to excellence, and technical talent are tangible evidence of the ACS Vision: Improving peoples lives through the transforming power of chemistry.

The Heroes of Chemistry program recognizes scientists whose innovative work in chemistry and chemical engineering led to commercial products that benefit the world. The teams will be recognized in a ceremony on Sunday, Aug. 20, during the Societys 254th National Meeting & Exposition in Washington, D.C.

The following scientific teams will be honored:

The American Chemical Society is a not-for-profit organization chartered by the U.S. Congress. ACS is the worlds largest scientific society and a global leader in providing access to chemistry-related research through its multiple databases, peer-reviewed journals and scientific conferences. ACS does not conduct research, but publishes and publicizes peer-reviewed scientific studies. Its main offices are in Washington, D.C., and Columbus, Ohio.

Its not a great sign for Nick Viall and Vanessa Grimaldi that theyre still fielding questions about, yknow, whether or not they actually have chemistry.

BachelorNation is still recovering from that horrendously awkward After The Final Rose segment where the new couple didnt look exactly smitten with each other.

I mean, come on, Nick and Vanessa, you guys could have at least looked like you dont hate each other?

Eesh.

Anyway, until Rachel Lindsays upcoming season of The Bachelorette, were going to have to deal with months of Nick and Vanessa (Nanessa?) speculation.

And Nick, who is back on our screens on Dancing With The Stars, missed an opportunity to clear things up once and for all during an appearance on Wednesdays The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Ellen, of course, mentioned the infamous interview, saying,

I didnt see the After The Rosebecause I could not commit to four hours of television. I heard that some people thought it was awkward, that yall were awkward together.

So what did Nick do?

Awkwardly, he stayed completely silent.

Instead, he was interrupted by Vanessa who was in the studio audience who responded,

I didnt think so. I think we both went in it wanting to be honest and open about couples, you know, sometimes things can get tough.

But were very committed to each other, we love each other, and thats what were focusing on.

Nick is apparently very focused on DWTS, but may have revealed a little too much to Ellen when asked about his partnership with Petra Murgatroyd, adding,

Most positions that Peta asks me to do are painful physically.

So you cant reassure Bachelor Nation, but you can make some dumb innuendo? Dammit, Nick!

Hes probably just fed up with having to constantly defend his relationship.

Nick previously revealedthey had decided to be honest on the show and wouldnt pretend its been easy.

After all, he was dating 29 other beautiful women when they fell in love, most of whom were recklessly throwing themselves at him.

Poor Nick.

Nick Viall's Awkwardly Silent When Asked About Lack Of Chemistry With Vanessa - Elite Daily

Few people believed in Scott Drews basketball team as November approached.

Baylor didnt get a single vote in the Associated Press or coaches Top 25 preseason polls. Losing an NBA lottery pick in Taurean Prince and one of the nations top rebounders in Rico Gathers, this had all the makings of a rebuilding year.

Instead the Bears have rebuilt all the way to a Sweet 16 matchup against South Carolina at 6:30 p.m. Friday at Madison Square Garden.

Im always a glass half full kind of guy, so Im optimistic that if we do X, Y and Z things will work out, Drew said. But you never know how the chemistry will develop and you never know about injuries. We got dinged up at the end of the year but fortunately they werent season ending injuries, and thats one reason weve been able to reach the success weve had.

Since the Bears were picked fifth in the Big 12 race and werent on the national radar, its been easy for Drew to motivate his squad. The Bears won their first 15 games to attain their first No. 1 ranking in school history on Jan. 9, and finished in a second place tie in the Big 12 with West Virginia and Iowa State.

With NCAA tournament wins over New Mexico State and USC, the Bears have fashioned a 27-7 record.

Coaches use everything for motivation, but its easier to motivate when you dont receive a lot of awards and a lot of attention, Drew said. I definitely thought we had a chance to have a great year. But you never know who is going to step up and perform. Weve definitely been on the best-case scenario side of things.

This will be Drews fourth appearance in the Sweet 16, and the first since 2014. It might also be the third-seeded Bears best shot at reaching the Final Four since theyre the highest remaining seed in the East region that has been whittled down to No. 7 South Carolina, No. 4 Florida and No. 8 Wisconsin.

Drews two previous Elite Eight teams were knocked out by No. 1 seeds and eventual national champions, including Duke in 2010 and Kentucky in 2012. But Drew doesnt pay a lot of attention to seeding because hes seen so many upsets during March Madness.

The Bears were first-round NCAA tournament upset victims the last two years, losing to No. 14 seed Georgia State in 2015 and No. 12 seed Yale in 2016. Those losses have only made Drew more grateful to get back to the Sweet 16.

You appreciate it more after the last two years of getting knocked out quicker, Drew said. You can get spoiled when you win. But the longer youre in this, you understand nothing is promised. Now weve been blessed to stay longer in the tournament, and it makes it more special.

With talent, athleticism and great chemistry, this years team has some similarities to Drews previous three Sweet 16 teams.

The Bears have a certain NBA draft pick in All-America forward Johnathan Motley. The 2010 team featured lottery pick Ekpe Udoh while the 2012 squad produced a school-record three NBA draft picks that year, including Quincy Acy, Quincy Miller and Perry Jones.

Cory Jefferson was drafted from the 2014 squad and Isaiah Austin would have likely been picked if he hadnt been diagnosed with Marfan Syndrome.

The 2010 team featured outstanding guard play in Tweety Carter and LaceDarius Dunn while the 2012 squad featured guards Pierre Jackson and Brady Heslip.

But the biggest difference in this years team might be its depth. The Bears attack opponents in a lot of ways and pull production from numerous players off the bench.

Theyve got a double-double machine in Motley and a 7-0 shot blocking ace in Jo Lual-Acuil. Terry Maston has given the Bears a big lift off the bench by amassing 19 points and nine rebounds in both of Baylors NCAA tournament wins.

After scoring 22 points against Texas Tech on Feb. 13, Maston had scored just two points in Baylors previous six games before the NCAA tournament.

Terry is one of those rhythm guys, Drew said. If he gets in a rhythm, the basket looks really large for him. He also benefited from teams not being that familiar with him. He looked very comfortable out there, he rebounded well and was tremendous on the defensive end.

Theyve got versatile guards in Manu Lecomte, Al Freeman, King McClure and Jake Lindsey. Lecomte made the difference in Baylors 82-78 win over USC by scoring all 12 of his points in the final minutes.

Meanwhile, Freeman came off the bench to score 21 against New Mexico State and McClure buried five 3-pointers to match his career high with 17 points against the Trojans.

I dont know if this is the deepest team weve had but weve had people come off the bench who have stepped forward in different games to allow us to be successful, Drew said. Its a little more challenging from a coaching aspect because you dont have the usual suspects in every game. You have to find out whos hot and whos blending well.

Tying everything together is the teams lone senior, Ish Wainright. He epitomizes the unselfish character of the team by contributing in various ways whether its passing, rebounding, scoring or playing lockdown defense. The rest of the team has taken its cue from Wainrights team-first attitude.

Ish does a great job of having a relationship with everybody on the team, Drew said. They allow him to lead, and they support him. It starts with the fact that Ish is such an unselfish person. They can see hes excited about his teammates success. Its easy to follow someone who cares about you and not about himself.

Getting back to Madison Square Garden is a treat for Drew, who led the Bears to two NIT appearances at the fabled arena. The Bears finished second in the 2009 NIT before winning the 2013 title. Hes glad this years players will get to experience the Garden with a shot at making the Final Four.

Some of our former players who played at Madison Square Garden have shared their experiences with these guys, Drew said. Theyve passed on their thoughts and wisdom to them. I know everyones excited and wants us to continue to have success there.
