RIO DE JANEIRO -- A man who helped translate conversations between Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte, his teammates and armed security guards at a gas station said a gun wasnt pointed at them during the encounter.He also said the Americans decided to pay for property they destroyed to avoid calling police.Fernando Deluz, a 38-year-old disc jockey, said he had stopped at the gas station around 6 a.m. on Sunday after working a party all night. He said security guards confronted the swimmers about a bathroom door they apparently forced open.When two swimmers walked off, Deluz said one of the two security guards put one hand on his gun and pointed at the ground, telling the men in Portuguese to sit. The other guard stood by but did nothing, Deluz said.There was no aggression. Pointing a gun at them? Never. There was nothing like that, Deluz said during an interview with The Associated Press.The incident has become a defining story of the Games. Brazilian police have said Lochte was lying when he said he was robbed.Lochte apologized Friday for not being more careful and candid about how he described the incident, but he maintained a gun was pointed at him by a stranger and that the swimmers were forced to pay money to leave the gas station.Police have gone back and forth about whether guns were pulled on the swimmers.Deluz said he began to translate when he realized the swimmers did not understand the guards.That is when they started saying, No police. Please, dont call police! Deluz said.Two days later, upon reading Lochtes initial account of a robbery, Deluz said he was surprised to learn that the men were Olympic swimmers.They made a lot of mistakes, Deluz said. But the worst was that they lied about what happened. Soccer Jerseys Outlet .

Can we get a one-way ticket to (minor-league) Hamilton for David Desharnais please. Michelle Payne, a name synonymous for sticking it to the man, has over the past 12 months defied the odds and created her own path.Payne became a worldwide sensation when she became the first female jockey to win the Melbourne Cup, saluting aboard 100-1 outsider Prince of Penzance, but she gained even more attention with her rogue post-race comments in which she thanked winning trainer Darren Weir for giving her a go in such a chauvinistic sport.I know some of the owners were keen to kick me off, and [senior part-owner] John Richards and Darren stuck strongly with me, Payne said after winning the Race That Stops The Nation. I put in all the effort I could and galloped him all I could because I thought he had what it takes to win the Melbourne Cup. I cant say how grateful I am to them. I want to say to everyone else, get stuffed because women can do anything and we can beat the world.With those words, Payne became more than just a champion jockey; she became a champion for womens rights, a fighter in and out of the saddle.Riding high into 2016, Payne continued to face challenges and opposition within a tough, sporting industry.Payne, 31, suffered a potentially career-ending injury in a race fall in May this year, when she was rushed for surgery to repair her torn pancreas before spending weeks in hospital.That injury and the possibility of becoming a diabetic prompted calls for her retirement,, most notably from the owners of Prince of Penzance, but the Victorian trailblazer would not be stopped and she returned to the saddle just five months later to create history once again.ddddddddddddReturning in September, she became one of three people granted a dual licence to ride and train her own horses and she made history in October when she became the first person in Victoria to ride a runner she trains at Group level.But one year on from her amazing Melbourne Cup feat little has changed from the racing world with Payne riding in just six races during the four day carnival, two on her brothers horses and the third her own horse, Queen of Zealand, while only one woman, Katelyn Mallyon, would race for the Cup.Payne, a country girl with big dreams, doesnt regret what she said after winning the 2015 Melbourne Cup, and her determination, tenaciousness and unflappable faith that touched hearts around Australia resulted in the Ballarat native winning The Don Award presented annually to a sportsperson, who, through their achievements and example over the last 12 months, is considered to have most inspired the nation; the description suits Michelle Payne to a T.Inspired by Michelle Payne and Rogue One.
