Category — Energy Postmodernism
Can Green Energy be Demythologized? (Part 2)
"Capitalism has a built-in incapacity to generate legitimations of itself, and it is particularly deprived of mythic potency; consequently, it depends upon the legitimating effects of its sheer facticity or upon association with other, non-economic legitimating symbols."
– Peter Berger, The Capitalist Revolution: Fifty Propositions about Prosperity, Equality and Liberty
In Part 1 of this two-part series, conventional, market-based electricity was described as inescapably lacking an overarching myth that gives it legitimacy against postmodern renewable energy, global-warming ideology, and energy regulation in California. This insight comes from sociologist Peter L. Berger's 1986 book The Capitalist Revolution: Fifty Propositions about Prosperity, Equality and Liberty.
Given Capitalism's mythic deprivation, what then can be done, if anything, to re-legitimate cheap, clean or cleaner conventional energy and demythologize renewable energy?
Can Anything Be Done?
Berger offers a central proposition in the quote above that suggests several ways to re-legitimate conventional rational electricity. First and foremost, for those who can be persuaded to accept it, there is the utilitarian value standard that is conventional among economists. But we must recognize that it is only one value standard among many and not a provable truth. Therefore, it needs to be supplemented by a recognition of its limits; by association with other forms of legitimation; and by the de-legitimation or co-optation of its opponents' standards.
Below are some corollary propositions borrowed from Berger and applied to the conventional electric industry's ideological war with renewable energy.
Proposition 1 – Industrial capitalism and rational electricity has generated the most productive human power in history. As industrialized energy has become the "master resource" of Market Capitalism, it continues to generate the highest material standard of living for large masses of people in history.
The best pathway to a "low carbon future" is not wind and solar power. Policy incentives in California that are biased against large-scale hydro, nuclear and combined-cycle gas power—in favor of wind and solar power—are a very expensive, inefficient, and economically unsustainable way to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, as even the liberal Brookings Institution concluded. This has huge implications for GDP and the U.S. standard of living. See below. (Click on chart for better resolution.) [Read more →]

Energy Postmodernism: Obama Today, Amory Lovins Yesterday (645-page powerplant rule to nirvana)
All good things to all people. That is how the Obama/EPA Power Plant Rule is being sold this week in the U.S. and around the world.
Lower prices, more jobs, greater security, accelerated innovation. New for old, cleaner for dirtier. Better air and less ailment. Take the disadvantages of rationing carbon dioxide in U.S. power plants and assert just the opposite. Get others to echo for a 'shared narrative.' Think energy postmodernism of wish, want competitive intermittent renewable energy.
Say it is a free lunch. Better yet, say it is a lunch that we are paid to eat.
And all this for a better future. "This is something that is important for all of us," Obama stated in regard to the proposal. "As parents, as grandparents, as citizens, as folks who care about the health of our families and also want to make sure that future generations are able to enjoy this beautiful blue ball in the middle of space that we're a part of." Save the Planet!
Never mind the infinitesimal climate effect of incremental emission reductions. (Do some simple math here assuming that power plant emissions are 38 percent of the U.S. total. I get a year-2050 temperature reduction of .005 degrees centigrade, and a year-2100 averted warming of .009.)
Never mind that the proposal flunks any sort of a cost/benefit comparison. And what about the Rule's 'government failure' costs–the costs of devising, implementing, revising, and lobbying even if it were done by angels?
Back To Lovins?
The master of deceit and misdirection brings to mind the wonderful road of 'soft energy" by the father of today's conjure, Amory Lovins. Some 37 years ago, he presented his case in romantic, something-for-everyone packaging.
As he told a congressional subcommittee in 1977: [Read more →]

California: Climate Policy Postmodernism (all-pain, no-gain for feel-good elitism)
"There is a vast difference between doing the right thing and doing the thing right. In this case, CARB is implementing AB32 in ways that ignore current realities and that likely make matters worse…. It is time for a major reset of the underlying law and its regulatory implementation." – T. Tanton
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) is all-in, damn-the-torpedoes relating to AB 32, the state's 2006 anti-global warming law, even while acknowledging that it will drive up the cost of energy. CARB chair Mary Nichols confirmed the start of a statewide cap-and-trade auction system November 14 under which industrial firms will buy and sell emission rights for pollutants–despite receiving unrebutted testimony from manufacturers and business owners about the very onerous, and even devastating, impact of moving forward with the auction.
When the California's Global Warming Solutions Act was enacted in 2006, things were quite different. Electricity prices were being pushed down by the early expansion of natural gas plenty. Other states and nations were considering similar climate change programs, and, in fact, the Western Climate Initiative set up by Western Governors looked to increase trade in emission allowances. Unemployment in the State was at about 7 percent, and the foreclosure debacle hadn't yet hit (which would drive many cities to the brink of bankruptcy).
The prospect of "leakage" was known, but not the extent. Too much faith was held in the Hobson's choice of cap-and-trade as opposed to the more draconian option of command-and-control regulation. And finally, national cap-and-trade seemed to be coming.
My how things have changed—except for the commitment to economy destroying state policies. The most notable change is that, nationwide, greenhouse gas emissions have already dropped to 1992 levels, without interventionist policies. California's carbon intensity has improved 21 percent since the turn of the century. Compare this to AB32′s goal of reaching 1990 statewide emissions by 2020. [Read more →]

Think, Want Competitive Renewables: Travis Bradford gets Spacy at THE ECONOMIST
Travis Bradford, founder and president of the Prometheus Institute for Sustainable Development, joins the postmodern crusade for the affirmative motion over at The Economist magazine: "This house believes that subsidising renewable energy is a good way to wean the world off fossil fuels." (Voting is in its last day.)
Let's assume (not debate) that fossil fuels are unsustainable, he says. And let's just believe that a lot of government this-or-that can make the dilute dense and the intermittent firm. Build it, and they will come … or coerce and it will all work out.
Bradford asserts at the beginning:
In an effort to refocus the debate on whether subsidies are a good way to wean the world off of fossil fuels, it might be useful to frame the alternatives instead of rehashing the same old arguments about whether we should. As the moderator says, we absolutely should—full stop. Now on to more earthly concerns.
Space Cadet?
Sadly, energy commentary is dominated by general writing filled with vague assertions and assumptions, apple and orange (or apple seed and apple orchard) and inappropriate analogies. A careful reading of Travis Bradford's piece reveals a number of shortcomings. [Read more →]

We've all seen the people on the corners of intersections or expressway exits begging for money. I've exited I-475 at Cory for 20 years. About six years ago, the phenomenon of a person begging at that exit began.
Prior to that, I never saw homeless people roaming that area with their worldly belongings; it's obvious these beggars aren't "local." So this begging thing must be lucrative enough to warrant standing in 0-100 degree weather.
The question is--who continues to contribute to these beggars?

People selling their cars online are being warned about a new scam that appears to be based in Malaysia.
As soon as the car is listed you get an offer that is too good to refuse, but you should.
As soon as Mandy Hall listed her Mitsubishi on a TradeMe classified she got a bite.
"The next day I got a text from a random number with weird country code asking me to email them I did," explains Ms Hall.
So started the negotiations with a "Kelly Rose" from Malaysia who said she was "presently on business trip and could not come over to check it out". But "I am please with the price".
The price was $5000 and "Kelly Rose" wanted to ship the car to Malaysia.
She said she had put the money plus $2000 in shipping fees into the secure internet payment service Paypal.
"From the beginning I was a little bit suspicious," says Ms Hall. "I thought why would someone from Malaysia want to buy a car in New Zealand."
This is where the scam becomes clear.
Mandy received an email supposedly from Paypal saying it has the money for her car, plus the extra shipping fees.
But it would not release it until she paid $2000 of shipping fees up front via Western Union money transfer.
TradeMe says if Ms Hall had done that, the money would be gone.
"If you are sending money over Western Union to someone that you don't know as a result of an internet auction site, it is highly likely that it is a scam and you should not do it," says Chris Budget of TradeMe.
However, the scammers are persistent - even threatening to report you to the authorities if you don't pay up.
"I called Paypal. They said no that's not us and said could I send it to their fraud department, so I did that," explains Ms Hall.
3 News tried to ring "Kelly Rose" in Malaysia. Unsurprisingly, no one answered.
Meanwhile, Ms Hall has re-listed her car. But this time, local buyers only please.

Report: Cal's Mike Montgomery could announce retirement on Monday
Mar 30, 2014, 3:56 PM EDT
To follow along with the 2014 Coaching Carousel, click here.
Another program could join the likes of Marquette, Wake Forest and Boston College in the 2014 coaching carousel as California head coach Mike Montgomery will reportedly meet with athletic director Sandy Barbour about his future with the university, according to a report from Andy Katz of ESPN.
Sources have told Katz that Montgomery is leaning toward retiring, and that administration is preparing for that scenario.
Montgomery has held four head coaching positions in his career with stops at Montana, Stanford and the Golden State Warriors before taking over the Cal program in 2008. In his time in Berkeley, he has compiled a 130-73 record, leading the Golden Bears to four NCAA tournaments, including a pair of appearances in the Round of 32. As the Stanford head coach (1986-2004) he guided the Cardinal to a Final Four berth in 1998 and a 30-2 record in his final season in 2004.
In July 2012, he signed a two-year extension with Cal, which would keep him on the sidelines until 2016.
The Golden Bears finished 21-14 (10-8 Pac-12) this season. Cal handed then-No. 1 Arizona its first loss of the season on Feb. 1.

Expropriation in Canada: Discretion Masquerading as Law
Although expropriation is one of the most extreme uses of government power, Canadian governments have almost complete discretion over when they resort to it. Governments often justify this violation of their citizens' property rights as being necessary to carry out public purposes. But expropriations that serve private interests, and those that are unnecessary, have become commonplace. Citizens have little recourse against arbitrary, unfair, and unjustified expropriations. This study by Elizabeth Brubaker provides an overview of federal and provincial expropriation laws. It examines the forums that give landowners only an illusion of meaningful participation in the expropriation process. It looks at a number of disputed expropriations, and at how the courts have grappled with them. And it suggests reforms to better balance the needs of governments with the rights of landowners.

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) - The son of former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky is participating in a documentary about his father's sexual-abuse case.
Matt Sandusky tells the Centre Daily Times that he took part in "Happy Valley" to advocate for child sexual-abuse survivors.
The 100-minute film is being screened this week at the Sundance Film Festival in Utah. It explores whether it was an open secret that Sandusky was molesting boys.
Matt Sandusky was expected to be a defense witness at Sandusky's trial but instead came forward to say that he had been abused by his adoptive father.
Jerry Sandusky is appealing his conviction and 30- to 60-year prison term.
Matt Sandusky, married with four children, says he hopes to start a nonprofit in State College and advocate for abuse survivors.

Rows of red and rows of blue, everything sorted by tint and hue . . .
That's a line of bad poetry that I included in last week's column.
The poem continues:
No more species, no more genus,
No more Latin spoken by us,
Pick your colour, pick the size,
Money back if it dies.
The poem was originally my attempt at describing a simplified garden centre.
And yet it isn't a long way from the truth in the marketing of plants. On tags and labels, even in seed catalogues, catchy names have been adopted in recent years to describe the plant. These are names that describe particular varieties, not to be confused with common names, which is how we often refer to familiar plants.
For instance, coneflower is the common name for echinacea, the perennial, and that's fine except that somewhere on the other side of the planet, coneflower may refer to an entirely different plant — and don't go asking for coneflower when looking for a cold remedy.
It's when we refer to plants by the catchy variety name that we can run into trouble. These are marketing names and in the industry quest to introduce new plants, or old ones with a new description, attention grabbing names are prominent.
How about a hydrangea called Bobo, or a primrose called Francesca (it could easily be confused with Franziska Maria, a clematis).
There's nothing wrong with interesting names until you try to track down a plant when all you know is it's called Bobo because that was what was displayed prominently on the tag. And let's face it, Bobo is a lot easier to remember than a double-barrelled botanical name that's usually buried somewhere in the fine print, if at all.
Once a plant is in your garden, you may call it whatever you like, but when you want to recommend it to a friend, or perhaps appear knowledgeable — and there are some people who only speak in botanical terms — it's useful to have the name recorded somewhere. Needless to say, there has to be an app for this.
So what's in a botanical plant name?
It is Latin and the first word is the genus of the plant. The second part of the name is the species. Genus is a group of plants that share a range of characteristics, while species are particular plants within that genus. Think of the two words as a family name followed by a first or given name. Echinacea purpurea, for example, takes its family name from the Greek word echino, meaning sea urchin, which describes the spiny flower head, while purpurea simply means purple.
Although different species within the same genus are related, they can be completely different in appearance. One example is salvia, a popular annual. On occasion, I've grown different species that cause surprise when I say it's salvia. This is why the botanical name is important, as the Salvia genus contains about 900 species comprised of annuals, perennials and shrubs.
Sometimes there are subspecies listed on labels as "subsp," which is a unique variation, often discovered growing as an isolated population but still of the same genus.
Within species there are different varieties and forms, indicated by "var." or "f." Cultivated varieties, referred to as a cultivars are selected plants propagated from seed, hybridized or produced vegetatively (from cuttings) or even as the result of gene splicing in a lab.
Cultivated varieties may be patented, or noted as PPAF (plant patent applied for). These are typically the plants with the catchy name in single quotation marks, hence Salvia patens "Oxford Blue," one of my favourite flowers.
Now that you're thoroughly confused, just keep in mind that the botanical name, though tedious, is important. At the same time, don't try asking for a Euphorbia pulcherrima at the grocery store — you'll easily find your poinsettia in rows of red.

DENVER—Richfield Hospitality has named Will Loughran, the company's SVP of sales and revenue strategy, as president.
"Will has been a consistent source of innovation and leadership during his tenure with Richfield," said Sherman Kwek, CEO of City e-Solutions Limited, Richfield's parent company. "Over the course of his career, he has proven himself in the various disciplines that he has undertaken and his background comprises a strong blend of operational and sales experience, not to mention his exceptional teamwork abilities. I am confident that his passion for the hospitality business will enable him to deliver outstanding results for both Richfield and the owners of the properties we manage."
Loughran began his career with Marriott International and over the course of 17 years in increasingly more responsible positions, earned recognition for driving market share and exceeding operational standards. Prior to joining Richfield in 2011, Loughran led the revenue management discipline at Sage Hospitality where he was known for fostering alignment with owners, developing strong teams and strategic planning.
"We recently redefined the needs of our organization and hired carefully chosen executives who have already proven to be a tremendous complement to our existing leadership team of dedicated hospitality and technology professionals," said Loughran. "We are poised for expansion and this combination of agility and experience will enable us to take our companies, Richfield Hospitality and Sceptre Hospitality Resources, on a journey of rapid growth and industry-leading innovation."

- Fabulous Decoration! Review by Laura
This garland was used for a Glam 30 Birthday party -- I ordered 4 of these and they really made a statement -- I embellished the martini glasses and heels with rhinestones for and extra added pop of sparkle, but these garlands can stand on their own. In addition to the Garland, I purchased about 35 of the matching Danglers and together they look absolutely fabulous.

EXCLUSIVE: "Bradley Manning Has Become a Martyr"–WikiLeaks' Julian Assange on Guilty Verdict
The sentencing hearing for Army whistleblower Bradley Manning begins today following his acquittal on the most serious charge he faced, aiding the enemy, but conviction on 20 other counts. On Tuesday, Manning was found guilty of violating the Espionage Act and other charges for leaking hundreds of thousands of government documents to WikiLeaks. In beating the "aiding the enemy" charge, Manning avoids an automatic life sentence, but he still faces a maximum of 136 years in prison on the remaining counts. In his first U.S. television interview since the verdict, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange discusses the Manning "show trial," the plight of National Security Agency whistleblower Edward Snowden, and the verdict's impact on WikiLeaks. "Bradley Manning is now a martyr," Assange says. "He didn't choose to be a martyr. I don't think it's a proper way for activists to behave to choose to be martyrs, but these young men — allegedly in the case of Bradley Manning and clearly in the case of Edward Snowden — have risked their freedom, risked their lives, for all of us. That makes them heroes." According to numerous press reports, the conviction of Manning makes it increasingly likely that the U.S. will prosecute Assange as a co-conspirator. During the trial, military prosecutors portrayed Assange as an "information anarchist" who encouraged Manning to leak hundreds of thousands of classified military and diplomatic documents.
Facing Rest of Life Behind Bars, Will Bradley Manning's Sentencing Weigh Lack of Harm to U.S.?
Despite being acquitted on his most serious charge of "aiding the enemy," Army Private Bradley Manning still faces up to 136 years in prison for the 20 other counts on which he was convicted. The sentencing phase begins today and is expected to last a week. We speak with independent journalist Alexa O'Brien from outside the courtroom at Fort Meade, Maryland, where she has covered the trial daily since it began. O'Brien was the first to make transcripts of the court proceedings publicly available. During Manning's trial, presiding judge Col. Denise Lind rejected a bid by defense attorneys to cite evidence showing the leaks caused no damage to the United States. Manning's attorneys had sought to present "damage assessment" reports that contradicted prosecutors' contention that Manning harmed national security and aided U.S. foes. "This trial has been about probable harm — there's been no actual harm actually on the merits," O'Brien says. "Now that we are in the sentencing phase and Manning faces 136 years, we can actually start to talk about the lack of actual damage from these leaks."

Sure, if you have something to say about. xD Most people had [almost] nothing to say about my artwork this time.... O.o but I thought you might've wanted to check it anyway.
Thankies! You still chat in a sweet, mysterious way.
July 9th, 2009
Ooh, new artwork? -^^- I must check it out! I'll drop a comment for you in the thread, okay?
July 6th, 2009
That's just like always.
And what I had to tell you was... I have a new artwork up!
XD See it in the art gallery forum! It's not as impressive as the Kanna I drew 2 years ago, but it took me a much longer time to complete...
July 5th, 2009
Yeah, it's been way too long. XD; I'm sorry about that... I guess I just decided to give up posting for a while. I've been busy in real life and wanted to put more energy into sites like my Livejournal.
So, what is it you were going to tell me? I can't wait to hear it! (Even if it's no big deal. :p)
July 5th, 2009
Kayleigh! You signed on. That was like 4 month you haven't been on? XP Anyway, I have something [not that important] to tell you!
October 14th, 2008
I'm sorry that this is a bit late, but
! I hope you had a great one!
Wow, $100? XD I wish I could spend that much...but if I ever do get to go on a shopping spree one day, I know which store will get most of my money, lol.
I don't remember seeing Hello Kitty cellphones (only stickers and covers you could attach to certain kinds of phones) at the store in Dallas, but that's not to say they didn't carry them. There were all kinds of other items like clocks, toasters and different household appliances/supplies. Have you seen the little cell phone "mascots"? I have one of Hello Kitty that's really cute...it even has a bell on it. <3
My pen-pal grew up in Kagoshima, but is currently living by herself in Osaka while she attends college. However, she visits Tokyo with her friends every now and then. We should all go when I visit her, lol. XD That would be a fun trip!
September 17th, 2008
W00t! I have a Hello Kitty notebook too which I used as a diary. <3<33<3 (came from Beijing Sanrio too)
Ebola Virus plushie concept: Gigantic virus, the ebola virus at 1 million times its actual size. It looks like a rod/snake xD, except its shape is fixed, pretty cute.
I spend up to $100 at Sanrio stores, lol. I wanted a Hello Kitty cellphone at Beijing Sanrio, but the ones they had only worked in China. =[ v_v; I never had a cell before, but Sanrio's obviously cute enough to make me want it. :x ^__^
I know, Tokyo Sanrio! I bet it'd be a $10000 trip though xD. Which city was your pen-pal in? Take me when you visit your pen-pal lol <3
Did the Dallas Sanrio carry cellphones, btw?
September 16th, 2008
Aww. Not by much, though. XD I don't have many chances to visit the Sanrio store in Dallas... and unfortunately, it can be difficult to find items of my favorite character (Cinnamoroll) anywhere else.
Still, I'm the same way -- even if the selection is small, I can always find something to buy! Everything is so cute. <3 I have a Hello Kitty notebook... but I've never heard of an Ebola Virus plushie, lol. What on earth is that like? XD
The beach ball would be fun to have! Last time I was at the store, I mostly bought gifts for my friend who was visiting from England. I usually can't afford to spend more than $20, though. I wanted a Cinnamoroll plushie for myself, but it was too expensive. ;o; Guess I'll have to stick with my
Pokédoll for now.
I remember the picture you showed me! It was adorable. <3 I'm sure the Sanrio store in Beijing was really fun to visit, ne? I'd also love to go to Japan. My pen-pal from there has sent me several things like stickers and Hello Kitty chopsticks, haha. XD I can use them now!
September 12th, 2008
Oh you're more fortunate then me when it comes to shopping then <3
All the Sanrio in Ottawa is found in some toy store named Mrs. Tiggy Winkles, which basically just has one shelf of Sanrio products. There's like 4 Tiggy Winkles locations in Ottawa, though. But I usually can buy something when I visit despite that small of a selection. Last visit I just got a Hello Kitty folder and a giant Ebola Virus plushie, haha.
Even when I during my visits to Toronto, biggest city in Canada, the only good Sanrio store they have is Cinthia, which has still only just two or three shelfs. But it's better then nothing. =] I got an awesome cute Hello Kitty beach ball there, which a super cute ballon Hello Kitty inside. <3<3 But I gave it away. =[ lol. Gifting's is Sanrio's theme though, so I really didn't mind that.
In Canada, there's at least an official Sanrio in West Edmonton Mall, Edmonton, where my mom lives, but that's far away.
The only official Sanrio store I've been to is one in Beijing, which I told you about after Christmas while flashing that Hello Kitty I got from there (I got more then just that from Beijing's Sanrio, of course). I think you remember xD
April 24th, 2008
Yay! I'm very happy to have... touched your heart. Or something like that? XD It's not often that I get those kinds of compliments! *glomps*

Social media major factor in teens' social & sex lives: Australia study
With its 5th national study of Australian teens' sexual attitudes, behaviors and health since 1992, La Trobe University for the first time took a careful look at social media's role in their social and sexual lives, finding that it plays a significant one.
"Our survey clearly shows the major role social media has in the negotiation and development of sexual relationships," said the study's lead author, emeritus Prof. Anne Mitchell in the press release. As for the survey's findings overall, she said "we can take heart from these results as they suggest that young people on the whole are feeling good about their decisions to have or not to have sex and most are acting responsibly."
About sexting
Although the survey covered a full spectrum of experience – feelings, attraction, pressures, practices, drug use, fertility factors, relationships, etc. – as for social media use (one of nine chapters in the study), it found that 42% of Australian 10th, 11th and 12th grade students had received a "sexually explicit, nude or nearly nude photo or video" of themselves and 26% had sent one of themselves. Among sexually active youth, 70% had received and 50% had sent such photos (the authors defined "sexually active" as having ever had sexual intercourse, finding that 23% of 10th graders, 34% of 11th graders and 50% of 12th graders had).

Enjoyed the performance. Mainly went because we'd seen Dan Corrigan in another production. We especially like this small venue. These actors do a really good job.

Very British. There is only one white hat in the cast. Everybody else wears grey to raven black. All secrets are revealed by the end. So you think I will spoil it for you?

Great evening spent with Margie, Maria and mom that started out at the Olive Garden at 6:30 and then on to see the play. The full tummy and cozy atmosphere made me sleepy. The play was very good. I would recommend it to others.

According to the information from the Small Business Act (SBA) Fact Sheets, during the last two decades in Sweden, the SMEs have played an increasingly important economic role. They now account for 65% of private sector jobs and 57% of value added. Of even greater importance is the fact that 9 out of 10 new jobs during the last 20 years were created within the SME sector. However, SMEs suffered more from the economic crisis because they had tighter margins with regards to liquidity, and were are also more dependent and thereby directly affected by changes in the pattern of everyday consumption. Thus, from 2008 to 2012, the large companies (LEs) slightly outperformed SMEs with respect to both value added and workforce. More specifically, while employment and value added in SME decreased by about 1%, LEs increased value added by more than 3% and employment in LEs grew almost 1%. Sweden's SBA profile shows a country with an above-average performance and stable development over recent years. Sweden has very good results in most SBA areas, with seven of the ten principles being above the EU average. It does particularly well in Access to finance, Internationalisation and State aid and public procurement, where it ranks among the top EU performers.

It was just another chapter in the Syracuse/Georgetown basketball rivalry as the Orange ousted the top-seeded Hoyas in overtime, 58-55, on Friday to earn a spot in the Big East tournament final.
In the final conference meeting between the two teams, Syracuse used its trademark zone to frustrate the Hoyas' outside shot, limiting them to just 4 for 18 from behind the arc. Syracuse focused much of their energy on POY-candidate Otto Porter Jr., limiting the forward to just 12 points on 4-of-13 shooting as they head to their 15th Big East tournament title game.
It wasn't easy for either team, as the Hoyas stingy defense frustrated Syracuse into a poor shooting night. The Orange shot just 36 percent from the floor, with forward C.J. Fair hitting just three of his 16 shots for six points. James Southerland, Brandon Triche and Baye Keita provided just enough offense to squeak by the Hoyas with 13 points a piece.
Syracuse moves on to face the Louisville Cardinals, who defeated the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, 69-57, on Friday night. Russ Smith scored 20 points to lead the Cardinals as the Louisville defense limited Notre Dame to just 36 percent shooting and 7-of-21 from the three-point line.
Louisville and Syracuse split their two games this season, although Syracuse's win came on Jan. 19 while Louisville was enjoying a short stay as the top team in the country. Louisville won the most recent of the two contests, 58-53, on March 2, part of their current nine-game winning streak.
