  • Pacers Outduel Grizzlies
    WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2013 SPORTS Pacers outduel Grizzlies INDIANAPOLIS: Paul George scored 23 points and Lance Stephenson had the first triple- double of his career, leading the Indiana Pacers to a 95-79 victory Monday over the Memphis Grizzlies. Indiana became the NBA’s seventh team to open 8-0 since 2000 - two more wins than the franchise’s previous best start. And they fol- lowed a familiar script in the battle between last season’s conference runner-ups by domi- nating the glass, dominating the second half and divvying up top honors. Stephenson finished with 13 points, 11 rebounds and a career-high 12 assists. George Hill scored 13 points and Roy Hibbert added five more blocks to his NBA-leading total. Memphis was led by Marc Gasol with 15 points and Zach Randolph with 12.

The theoretical framework is based on both onomastic studies, such as Amaral (2011), Amaral e Seide (2020), Bajo Pérez (2002), Becker (2012), Fernández Leborans (1999), Urrutia and Sánchez (2009), Van Langendonck (2007), Fernández Leborans (1999) and on analyses about Brazilian soccer studies such as Rodrigues (2010) and Caetano and Rodrigues (2009). The data analyzed are the players’ names on the lists selected to compete World Cup in that period. These names are classified in order to observe variation and change over time. The results indicate a predominance of official names in almost every year as well as a greater contemporary trend towards more formal name variants. Keywords: Brazilian National soccer team, soccer players, anthroponyms. Resumo Este artigo apresenta uma análise de antropônimos oficiais e não oficiais de jogadores da Seleção Brasileira do período compreendido entre 1958 e 2018. O marco teórico se apoia tanto em estudos de Onomástica, como Amaral (2011), Amaral e Seide (2020), Bajo Pérez (2002), Becker (2018), Fernández Leborans (1999), Urrutia e Sánchez (2009), Van Langendonck (2007), quanto em estudos sobre o futebol brasileiro, como Rodrigues (2010) e Caetano e Rodrigues (2009).

A defense official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the US Navy would expand its presence in the Mediterranean to four destroyers from three. Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel, en route to Asia, said Obama had asked the Pentagon for options on Syria, where an apparent chemical weapons attack that killed as many as 1,000 civilians has upped pressure on Washington to respond. “The Defense Department has responsibility to provide the president with options for all contingencies,” Hagel said. “And that requires posi- tioning our forces, positioning our assets, to be able to carry out different options - whatever options the presi- dent might choose.” He did not elaborate. The defense official, who was not authorized to speak publicly, said the USS Mahan, a destroyer armed with cruise missiles, had finished its deployment and was due to head back to its home base in Norfolk, Virginia.

    CLUBPERARNAU P 44 TONY PULIS LA NUEVA VIEJA ESCUELA Agustín Galán La figura de Tony Pulis es una de las más veneradas dentro de la Premier League actual. Su apariencia y sus maneras de la vieja escuela lo llevan siempre a banquillos en los que la prioridad es la permanencia y los presupuestos son tan ajustados que no parecen pertenecer a la competición en la que se baten récords de traspasos cada verano.
