Porzingis' 33 percent conversion rate from beyond the arc belies his true sniper's skill set, at least for now—European players tend to see their outside shooting get a bump after their first season in the league, and he should be no different.
The articles, which were a hoax, apparently convinced some segment of the paper's readership — a credulousness that belies the sharp division the public was willing to entertain between the Moon as they had seen it and the Moon as astronomers (purportedly) did.
" With a stillness that belies her self-conception as a walking disaster (stillness is one of the actor Ruth Wilson's secret weapons), Alison listens as Helen puts it plainly: "If you don't like the way men are treating you, change the story.

The simplicity of her prose belies a complexity of thought that would have been necessary to edit V. S. Naipaul (or survive a dinner with Jean Rhys); though Athill may not have been afraid of death, she didn't think it was simple, either.
The service is now associated with hit shows like House of Cards and Stranger Things, but its growing reputation for original content belies an important truth about the company -- most of its programming budget and viewership revolves around licensed, not original content.

Despite their size, ("lullaby/lament," for instance, is probably four feet by seven feet at the base and ten feet high) the lace and paper in which they are at once crowned and clothed lift and dance thus adding a weightlessness which belies their enormity.
The big picture: The murder of Jamal Khashoggi, however, belies the notion that substantive change has taken place, and has spurred calls for the U.S. to re-evaluate its relationship with Saudi Arabia on economic policy, human rights, counterterrorism, and especially support for extremism.
"It belies the real DNA of the Whooshh systems," Bryan said, noting that HBO comedian John Oliver made the copyrighted term "Salmon Cannon" famous in 2014 on an episode of Last Week Tonight in which, in jest, they pretended to shoot salmon at famous people.

Palin's allegations would allow him and The New York Times to be impervious to defamation suits simply by professing at the dismissal stage that they did not remember knowing that their defamatory statements were false — even where circumstantial evidence belies that self-serving contention.
In today's adult industry, performers are far more likely to make comfortable, five-figure salaries than anything approaching seven figures; the grandiose cash promised by The Sex Factor is a not-so-humble brag that belies the cash-strapped reality of the adult industry.
Indeed, Morrison's policies, big picture, probably won't be all that different from Turnbull's, though his reputation as a moderate somewhat belies reality — he's socially conservative and is the architect of Australia's controversial asylum seeker policy, which turned back boats trying to reach the country's shores.
Green said that Swiss Post's assertion that an attacker would need access to the infrastructure to pull off the attack belies the intended design of the system, which is supposed to ensure that even if the infrastructure is malicious, the election would still be safe.

"(The idea that Hulu could be for Disney's 'edgier' content suggests a kid-stuff vibe that Disney+'s massive scale belies; Disney+ is virtually certain to be for everyone in the same way that Netflix and Hulu are.)" But that's clearly not how Disney sees it.
While the worldbuilding shows off a surprisingly well-thought-out take on the space opera genre that belies its deployment of some well-worn tropes, the main plot itself is convoluted and jagged, with too few reasons to get invested in the events of the story.

The nature we most often think of — the kind with tundra swans and cheetahs, sun-drenched grasslands and alpine lakes; the kind steeped in morning dew, lavish music and Sir David Attenborough's mellifluous voice-over — belies an overlooked and equally valuable nature found in our backyards.
But that statistic belies the scope of that type of trash: Some transfer stations boost their rates — in one case by as much as 37 points, according to an environmental advocacy group — by including debris that's simply used to cover landfills rather than repurposed for another project.
On one of Tacoronte's oldest streets, it has a plain concrete facade that belies what lies beyond: an interior courtyard bordered by covered terraces, gardens and a two-story structure in the traditional Canary Islands style, with wood balconies, elevated galleries, paneled doors and multi-paned windows.
All of this belies assumptions made in the immediate aftermath of Mr Corbyn's victory in Labour's leadership election in September: that the new leader, far to the left of most of his MPs, would have to compromise frantically to keep his job and would soon be ousted nonetheless.
His jab and shoot tactics simply saw him get shucked off and then knocked out by King Mo. Not only do you have a good distance between yourself and the opponent when you shoot, if you only ever throw the jab out it belies your reluctance to actually strike.
Sofia Shevelyeva, 26, a sales manager, watched the upset over Spain at Beer Mood, a bar overlooking Chisty Prudy park, a leafy spot in the city center whose tranquillity today belies its past: It was a site Ivan the Terrible had set aside for crowds to watch mass executions.
But take 1950's "Ballet Dancer": a young man's powerful slimness belies the languor of his pose: a single forceful, pale vertical stripe emphasizes the strength of his bony shin; curvy, precisely shaded swipes of black draw his hamstring forward and out from the sharp protuberance of his ischial tuberosity.
Despite the nickname Pickett possesses, he has a well-rounded skillset which saw him defeat current UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson back in the WEC—a skillset which has seen him win more fights by submission than knockout and belies the common misconception of his status as a British brawler.
The timing of Rendell's screed, birthed on the morning of the primary debate in which Warren will finally face off against Biden, belies his motive—if he was so affronted by her hypocrisy back in April, why did it take him five months to write an 800-word op-ed?
Our continued failure to recognize disabled lives as inherently valuable irrespective of their relationship to nondisabled ones, even as the state of Ohio plans to coerce parents into unsupported roles as caregivers, belies a lack of cohesion as to what "disability rights activism" is and who should be at its center.
As we near the end of the second decade of a military campaign in Afghanistan and continue to wrestle with the consequences of the war in Iraq, Americans are naturally exasperated about the costs in blood and treasure, and the indiscipline that all too often belies our rhetoric about disciplined leadership.

CNN's "facts first" branding campaign, rolled out last fall, was pitched to the press as an effort to "blunt Trump attacks" on the network, but the reference to Kellyanne Conway's infamous alternative facts gaffe belies the fact that CNN isn't so much countering Trump's anti-CNN rhetoric as feasting off it.
A former Bento Rodrigues resident expresses disbelief as Samarco lawyer explains compensation program (Photo by Ricardo Martínez/VICE News.) But the obvious poverty seen in the towns along Minas Gerais state highway 129, known locally as the "iron ore corridor," belies the claims that mining has brought prosperity to the region.
If the special alchemy of your block feels as if it is in jeopardy — in the case of where I live, a conviviality belies the stateliness, and people gather on one another's stoops to drink and talk as if it were Mayberry — then a Robin Hood effect might as well kick in.
But as a project, The Weeknd is successful because Abel Tesfaye has voracious musical tastes that he integrates with an inherent mastery of R&B and pop as artforms, and while he coats everything he touches with a sexy-sleazy sheen, that choice belies his eye for detail and serious songwriting chops.
The simplicity of the concept belies the depth of emotion involved, the almost hypnotic tone (again augmented by Nicholas Britell's musical score), or the sobering idea that the unequal justice regarding poor minority youth that Baldwin -- the author and civil-rights activist -- addressed in the '70s remains a heated topic of conversation today.
Facebook said in a statement it is "agreeing" to release the email, which belies the fact that it spent months trying to prevent its release: Today we are agreeing with the District of Columbia Attorney General to jointly make public a September 2015 document in which Facebook employees discuss public data scraping.
Gathered in a small conference room were Kenric McDowell, an artificial-intelligence expert from Google, and several Philharmonic officials, chief among them Chad Smith, the orchestra's chief operating officer and de facto head of programming, a man whose preppy demeanor belies a reputation as one of the most innovative figures in classical music.
There are many reasons to love SNL and Shrill actress Aidy Bryant: a sly and bawdy sense of humor that belies her super-sweet appearance; infectious, rock-star-level self-confidence, and of course, her girly, slightly kooky and ultimately enviably cool style that never keeps her cool and never too serious.
In Velázquez's "Portrait of a Young Girl," from around 1640 and stunningly alive after conservation, an anonymous sitter of around 6 or 2535 — lips pursed, black eyes fixed forward — has the self-possession of a grown woman; its psychological intricacy belies the easy brushwork of the picture's background and the girl's gray dress.
A Trip to Macondo The staid-looking family tree printed in "One Hundred Years of Solitude," by the Nobel laureate Gabriel García Márquez — seven generations of marriages and children (with parentheticals that suggest the juicy vagaries of lineage) — belies the drama that fills the pages of this masterpiece of magic realism from 1967.
The grandeur of the former theater belies the rather prosaic merchandise provided by the bookshop chain that owns the current incarnation: The open interior is surrounded by tiers of balconies that, especially when lit in the evenings, make it easy to imagine the ballet and opera and tango performances of a century ago.
In Velázquez's "Portrait of a Young Girl," from around 1640 and stunningly alive after conservation, an anonymous sitter of around 6 or 7 — lips pursed, black eyes fixed forward — has the self-possession of a grown woman; its psychological intricacy belies the easy brushwork of the picture's background and the girl's gray dress.
Its comparatively basic visual appeal—it has more in common with the first-generation videogames of the 1970s and 1980s than it does the polygon-intense lushness of Halo or Assassin's Creed—belies a depth of imaginative exploration and experimentation that has propelled it to be the second-best-selling videogame ever, behind only Tetris.
The world-building that is so essential to a movie boasting four separate realms in its title, not to mention some of the lovelier bits of Victorian London (everything is swathed in sparkly snow and a warm gaslight glow that belies any thought of Oliver Twist), impressively comes together courtesy of Lisa Chugg's set design.
"Although Mr. Comey testified he only leaked the memos in response to a tweet, the public record reveals that The New York Times was quoting from these memos the day before the referenced tweet, which belies Mr. Comey's excuse for this unauthorized disclosure of privileged information and appears to entirely retaliatory," Marc Kasowitz said.
And so the first dimension of the Post's confusion is straightforward: The proposed tax would have only a trivial effect on temperatures — zero, as a matter of statistical significance — that is, on the assumed underlying externality, a reality that belies the common assumption that such a tax would improve the efficiency of resource allocation.
But the implication to most people, I think, is that claim denials will be a thing of the past — a statement that belies the fights patients have every day with public insurers like Medicare and Medicaid, to say nothing of the fights that go on in the Canadian, German, or British health care systems.
Not so long ago, you might have expected a bunch of these candidates to offer nothing but vague statements about ally-ship and equality, but the footprint of the Equality Vote, as the HRC is calling this group of LGBTQ voters and others who care about their rights, belies deeper political understanding on these issues.
Leaders defend one-house bills as a way of formally staking out negotiating positions, and say that their somewhat light work schedule in Albany — there have been a total of 10 session days in the last five weeks — belies the work that members are doing in their districts, and does not account for often exhausting budget hearings.
The list of everyone that would have to (tragically, of course) abdicate, retire, or die for an American to invade Buckingham Palace is pretty short: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's engagement announcement captivated the world Monday, but the royal's betrothment to the American actress belies a more significant development that's been simmering since the Revolutionary War.
Such sweeping pronouncements always lead to trouble, and "symbols of mass production that stand for the victory of capitalism, social control, and the construction of the individual," if anything, lack subtlety in their imaginings of a hegemonic, lockstep corporate culture — a picture that a close reading of the news, for better or worse, belies every day.
According to Schoninger, the league's modest start belies an ambitious set of goals: create a viable, profitable American pro league where previous efforts have failed; tap into potential fans of the country's fastest-growing participatory sport; grow spectator interest in the game, particularly among millennials; and ultimately help the United States become an international rugby power.
The Silicon Valley worker benefits and perks — the free, fresh produce and transcendental meditation pods — have become symbols of the riches created in the tech sector and how good it has been to workers, but the hype belies the truth that many of the employees operating within big tech companies are working on second-class contract terms.
The exhibition features works he produced during his 2013 tenure as Artist in Residence at Dartmouth College, as well as a collaboration with printmaker Lucy Ganje called In Our Own Words: Native Impressions 2015 – 2016, Heyman's layered paintings, prints, and portraits possess an almost decorative lightness that often belies darker imagery, a more crucial and devastating truth.
But behind the scenes, the work the top House Republican is putting in belies a keen recognition that history and math paint a difficult picture for his conference in 220 months from now -- and his recent victory in passing a repeal and replace of the Affordable Care Act, at least based on initial returns, may only make things more complicated.
Jerry NadlerJerrold (Jerry) Lewis NadlerGOP memo deflects some gun questions to 'violence from the left' House Democrats urge Trump to end deportations of Iraqis after diabetic man's death French officials call for investigation of Epstein 'links with France' MORE's quest to have Attorney General Barr held in contempt, belies the view he held on the subject just a few years ago.
Reminiscent of Mira Nair's "Monsoon Wedding" and Umesh Kulkarni's "Vihir", Sen Sharma deftly uses the family get-together as a setting for skeletons to come tumbling out, and the bonhomie among the revellers belies the tensions running beneath the surface - like Vikram's constant flirting with Bonnie's friend Mimi (Kalki Koechlin) despite being married, or the bullying of Shutu by the other men.
The Biscayne Bay I've written about here is not a place to which I can return; in the past decade, some 25,000 acres of its sea-grass meadows — more than 90 percent in one part of the bay — have died, and its famous aquamarine color belies the devastation of raw sewage, chemical runoff, global warming and acidification, toxic blooms of algae.
A kind of counterpart to The Invention and Conclusion of the Eye, Toril Johannessen's audio drama of optics, the streamlined simplicity of the piece belies its complex dialogue with seeing, being seen, and what is unseen — Tyndall stone constitutes most of Winnipeg's municipal buildings — and reifying the role of the wall as the very fabric of separation and, increasingly, discrimination.
Starting around late 2014, Future began a now-infamous megaproductive streak, belching out albums, mixtapes, collaborations, what have you, at an absurd rate that belies the lifestyle portrayed on record, for if he spends all that time in the studio, when would he ever find time to pop pills in the strip club while shuddering over the world's existential horror?
Pros: Its cute and colorful exterior belies deep turn-based strategy gameplay, a catchy soundtrack, silly and self-aware humor, and fantastic art direction with highly detailed animation Cons: A few surprising difficulty spikes, and the single-player campaign is a bit short Buy "Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle" on Amazon for $60 Currently out of stock Buy "Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle" from Best Buy for $60
One of the things Phillipson loves about the poet Frank O'Hara — who worked, incidentally, as a curator at MoMA in the 1950s and early 1960s — is the lightness of touch that belies his emotional depth; she likes a phrase of his, that the verbal elements of a poem are there ''to keep the surface of the poem high and dry, not wet, reflective and self-conscious.
But an extensive survey of whites with less than a four-year college degree conducted by CNN and the Kaiser Family Foundation paints a picture of an often-ignored demographic that belies the stereotypic images of Midwestern steel workers toting lunch pails to work, or golden-hearted cashiers working at Walmart or laid-off coal miners in Appalachia sitting around, chugging beer and seething in resentment.
Her Senegalese last name (which she prefers to be spelled with two capital letters, and pronounced "en-dee-ie") belies her thoroughly French upbringing; she was raised an hour south of Paris, and confessed in a 2009 interview with Le Monde that she had only spent three weeks of her life in Africa, two of them in Senegal, and that she felt "wholly foreign" to the continent.
There is an Arab secret agent (Algerian actor Saïd Taghmaoui), whose expertise in deception nonetheless belies an uncomfortably colonial Gunga Din-subservience, and a drunken Scot (played by Ewen Bremner, most memorable for his role as a worthless junkie in Trainspotting, here with the same Village Idiot haircut) who exemplifies Drunken Scottishness by shouting things like "PUT AIT DOON, WOOOMUN" while wearing a kilt.
Slice open the band's tripartite brain—the collective minds of Wise, Cory Feierman, William Schmiechen—and you'll see two distinct lobes; one half's guided by the tripped-out carnality of 60s psych, manifested in heavy-lidded hooks and freewheeling solos, while the other belies a far more erudite (and distinctly New York) praxis, adopted out of necessity: carefully-plotted tours, rigid studio schedules, and playback sessions.
Closer inspection, however, belies this first optical impression: the legs seem to be from a West African statue; the hair looks to be from a runway show (sleek, Caucasian, glossed into a couture "African" style); and the Marie-Antoinette-style fan (coyly hiding the torso) in truth appears to be a repurposed and precisely placed interior photograph of a Renaissance or Baroque ceiling, complete with an oculus.
The move by Mueller, to accept a guilty plea on a run-of-the-mill "1001 violation," named after 18 USC § 1001, the criminal statute for making false statements, belies a year of troubling news reports about Flynn's dealings both with Russia and, particularly, Turkey, a country he retroactively admitted had been paying him even as he worked on Trump's campaign last year—a violation of the Foreign Agent Registration Act.
The problem is that from Democrats John F. Kennedy, John Edwards, Bill Clinton and now, Al Franken, to Republicans Bob Packwood, Donald Trump and the ongoing scandal around Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore, who's accused of sexual abuse and pursuit of underage women, members of both parties have been been guilty of sexual misconduct that betrays their public claims to respect women and belies any commitment to our full equality.
And in "Proteus," a few mutating colored blobs abstracted from Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly performing "The Babbitt and the Bromide" in "Ziegfeld Follies" make a gentle mockery of any attempt to read anything too clever into the work: The song, audible on portable headphones, is a satire of empty small talk that belies its own ostensible point by using its bubbly lyrics as a medium for rhythm, melody and mood.
Greek director Yorgos Lanthimos honed his signature style in films like Dogtooth and The Lobster: His actors deliver stilted, formal lines with intentionally over-mannered delivery that belies their ludicrous situations, be it a family that's kept its adult children from ever interacting with the world, or the residents of a hotel where everyone must find a mate within a few weeks or be turned into an animal.
As world leaders from business, government and non-governmental organizations gather in Davos, Switzerland, for the World Economic Forum's annual meeting, the quiet, stoic grandeur of the mountain tops belies the crumbling foundation of the international economic and political order that the U.S. built in the aftermath of World War II.  The results of the recently released Edelman Trust Barometer set the stage for the opening of the forum.
Propelled through the air from beginning to end, the album deploys its riffage with such streamlined efficiency it takes several listens to notice the spiraling melody adorned with synth staccato in "Whiteout Conditions," the raw guitar blasts dotting the steady bassline in "Darling Shade," the way the chorus in "Colosseums" swells up anthemically only to clamp down on itself hard, all achieving grace and ease that belies the frustrations expressed in song.
The other former senior officials who were targeted were Susan Rice, the national security adviser to President Barack Obama; James B.
