How about a smart phone? Oddly enough, there are many more unusual gifts that are a tad cheaper that any owner can give to their pets.

He’s one lucky canine. I personally wouldn’t buy my dog claw polish to stylize her nails, but this definitely opens my eyes to the world of gift giving to pets. It’s unclear why a dog would need an iPhone 7, or eight of them for However, a treat launcher does sound promising. It can turn the act that matter. Regardless of the actual reason behind this, we’d still of rewarding a good dog into a game for both. judge Jianlin for his choice to buy odd gifts for his pet.

Remember when parents began to give their children the latest piec- es of technology and were criticized because it seemed unorthodox? Well, it’s clear new technology is not the only thing that surprises us; rather, it is whom people are buying technology for.

Jianlin also bought two golden Apple watches for Coco. I can say I’m sincerely jealous of Coco’s treasures, but I’m also ashamed I haven’t spent as much on my own pet. It goes without saying a dog may never need an iPhone, but isn’t it the thought that counts? B2 THE SCOUT 14 October 2016 24 VOICE Harlem’s New Defender BY zachary dixon

Introduced last year in season all add flavor to an already hearty cast. An- with colorful characters. None of them stand out on their own, but each adds a needed es- sence. Aisha running her baseball shop in- spired by her father’s glory days, Bobby Fisher playing chess in the shop and dolling out quips and especially Pop, the man who strove to give back to his community and give all the young people a safe place away from the crime on the streets.

Despite the strength of the characters, the show doesn’t spend quite enough time with them. Stokes, a.k.a. Cottonmouth, is played up to be this gang leader who’s bad for Harlem, but rarely do we directly see him doing things that are bad for Harlem. Likewise, the show talks about Mariah being sexually assaulted, but the execution is both clumsy and out-of- nowhere. If handled right, this could have been a powerful moment, but “Luke Cage” falls short.

For the first half of the season, crime is the most intriguing aspect of the show. The show comes off as a gangland crime series, and every scene where Cottonmouth is on screen, you know something’s going down. Sadly, it doesn’t last, because “Luke Cage” suffers from the same problem as “” season two.

In the last half of the season, a new villain, Diamondback, is introduced, and his intro- duction is without a doubt the weakest aspect of the show. It’s another revenge plot that doesn’t bring anything distinctive to the story. In certain episodes, the story actually drags as exposition is forced into the plot.

Something “Luke Cage” does well is por- traying not just a black , but also a black community. Over 90 percent of the cast of “Luke Cage” is people of color. The show doesn’t do anything crazy special storytelling- wise; It’s gangland-meets-superheroes, and that’s cool. But what’s even cooler is seeing a show with this type of cast deal with issues like police brutality and crime in a familiar and positive way.

As a whole, “Luke Cage” has a solid first sea- son. It stars a very strong cast and rather than doing something brand new, it does some- thing familiar in a very strong way. “Luke Cage” hammers home the same message over and over: Black people and our culture are important. It’s deep, it’s inspiring, and this is a welcome addition. “Luke Cage” is available on Netflix. THE SCOUT 14 Octoberr 2016 B3 V Clever parking saves enthusiast’s car BY BRIEN JACKSON

Hurricane Matthew wreaked havoc in the last week or so, hitting the Caribbean islands and eastern United States pretty hard. For most people, that means barricading themselves inside until the storm passes, hoping the rest of their home’s possessions don’t suffer too much damage (and unfortunately for some, the damage was severe). However, one Florida resi- dent took this advice to the extreme.

Randy Jalil’s prized possession is his BMW E30 M3, a well- known and respected car in the enthusiast community. Not wanting to leave his car in the storm, Jalil’s quick thinking led him to parking his car in his living room.

Yes, you read that right: “Car enthusiast parks car in living room to prevent storm damage.” Makes for an interesting headline, right?

Your first thought might be something like, “Do you not have a garage?” He does, but the garage already held two other cars. The next might be along the lines of, “How?” Jalil’s home happens to have double doors that provide just enough space for his car to fit through. Now that that’s been explained, you can relax a bit.

Knowing this was a bit of an unorthodox idea, Jalil had a bit of fun with it as the storm passed. On his Instagram account, @jalilsup, there are a few pictures of him staring lovingly at his car as he eats breakfast (while the car was “sipping” motor oil) and of the two having a sleepover.

After the storm passed, the car was driven back out onto the street, and Jalil’s living room was surely less crowded.

To some people, this whole thing might be crazy. But this right here? This is true love to me.

Volleyball earns first conferencen win h c S

BY JOSH NELSON v A Sports Reporter y b

o t

The Bradley volleyball team o h has seen its fair share of struggles p to keep up with the grueling competition the Missouri Valley Conference presents. The tough times continued this past weekend as the team dropped a pair of matches at Missouri State and Wichita State in straight sets. Missouri State and Wichita State currently hold two of the top three positions in the MVC standings. Although the Braves were swept in both matches, they didn’t go down without a fight. In the match against the Wichita State, the Shockers made short work of Bradley in the first two sets losing 25-12 and 25-14. The last set saw a much closer score that featured 12 ties and six lead changes but ended with the Shockers pulling away for a 25-22 win.

BY AUSTIN SHONE Assistant Sports Editor

The Bradley cross country teams are continuing to make a name for themselves on the nation- al scene after a pair of impressive performances at the Notre Dame Invitational. The race was split into two divisions: blue and gold. The men raced in the blue division, which is known for being a bit more presti- gious, while the women raced in the gold division to face familiar conference opponents. The women’s team won the gold division in a field of 28 teams. Junior Hannah Witzak finished fifth overall, running the fifth fastest time in school history at 17:24.

Senior goalkeeper Logan Ketterrer helped salvage the draw with six saves. “Logan had a great game,” head coach Jim DeRose said. “He made a couple great saves. He’s certainly been one of the few bright spots for us this year. A great goalkeeper can keep you in a lot of games, and he’s certainly done that this year.” Bradley had some chances to win down the stretch in extra time, but couldn’t manage to find the back of the net. Junior Jacob Taylor’s header off a corner kick had a shot to go in, but it was deflected and cleared by the Cougar defense. “We had some chances on some set pieces, obviously figuring out how to score goals has been difficult for us,” DeRose said. “We had a last flurry there late. We were driving in the second overtime and were hoping to get a set piece late. I think it’s a good result relative to what we’ve been combating this year. As long as we can put something in the good pile, we’ve defended pretty well, and did a good job giving up one or fewer goals in the last several games.
