RIO DE JANEIRO -- Almaz Ayana of Ethiopia delivered a stunning start to track and field at the Olympics with a world record in the 10,000 meters Friday, wiping away the competition just after the halfway point and striding to victory with effortless grace.After crossing the finish line, she raised her hands in triumph and came to a stop, fully realizing what she had done: Her time of 29 minutes, 17.45, had shaved 14.33 seconds off the 1993 mark of Chinas Wang Junxia.At age 24, she beat the best from a previous generation. Kenyas Vivian Cheruiyot, 32, a four-time long- distance world champion came in second, a massive 15.18 seconds behind. Ayanas 31-year-old teammate Tirunesh Dibaba took bronze.It was a bittersweet moment for Dibaba, who had been trying to become the first woman to win three individual Olympic track titles in a row. She never stood a chance for victory but fought to get another medal for Ethiopia.Dibaba and Ayana held hands afterward -- a symbolic transition to a new era.If David Rudisha of Kenya provided an iconic moment four years ago in the London Olympics with his world record, it could be tough to find a better race in Rio, with nine more days to go.Fridays conditions were ideal -- cool and overcast with a damp track from a morning rain. But the 60,000- capacity Olympic stadium was only a quarter full to see Ayanas accomplishment.Even though Kenya and Ethiopia are fierce rivals, it was the early strength of Alice Nawuwona that made Ayanas record run easier. The Kenyan delivered her at ideal pace at the halfway point, and Ayana put in a short sprint to sap any confidence from her rivals.Steadily, the world record became a possibility. With each lap, Ayana built a massive cushion.In Rome this spring, Ayana came to within a second of the world mark in the 5,000 meters -- her favorite event -- and she could have a chance to make it a double world record Olympics.---Follow 1Raf Casert on Twitter at http://twitter.com/rcasert Air Max 720 Offerta .com) - Following a late-game loss to the reigning NBA champs, the Toronto Raptors will look to sustain their recent high-level play as they travel to Indiana to take on the Pacers.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- A Knoxville police officer who called Tennessee football coach Butch Jones during a rape investigation involving his players will no longer serve as the police departments liaison to the football team.Knoxville police chief David Rausch said Wednesday that Sam Brown was removed from that assignment as a result of the reported concerns about the relationship between the football program and the police department. Rausch said Brown had served as the departments liaison to the Tennessee football program for the past 19 years and that his role included providing security for the head coach, team and staff.In order for the program to move on and avoid further undue scrutiny, it was agreed that we should make the transition at this time, Rausch said in a statement.Knoxville radio station WNML first reported the decision.Rausch emphasized this move is not the result of anything that Officer Brown has done or not done.He is a man of great integrity and has been a dedicated public servant to the Knoxville community, Rausch said.Phone records released in March show that Jones received calls from Brown and Rausch the morning of Nov. 16, 2014, hours after a woman said she was raped.
