News: Jay-Z's Got 99 Problems But A Pearl Jam Ain't One [Video]
Monday, Sep 3, 2012 11:15AM
Rap mogul Jay-Z fused hip-hop and rock over the weekend when he took to his Made In America stage and performed "99 Problem" alongside iconic band Pearl Jam to close out the event.
In addition to rocking together, Pearl Jam also performed their own hit records Sunday (September 2) night.
If closing out a two-day festival with an intense two-hour set wasn't enough for Pearl Jam, then bringing out the man who organized it sealed the deal. Jay-Z joined the group for its second-to-last encore Sunday with a rocking version of his signature hit "99 Problems." While Jay closed out the first night of the Budweiser Made in America Festival, he handed the torch to the Seattle-based band grunge rockers and they did not disappoint. Their 25-song set saw tens of thousands of fans jumping, dancing, and singing on the muggy September night to the band's well-known tracks like "Alive," "Better Man," and "Jeremy." (Huffington Post)
Yesterday, Young Hov also relied on Run-DMC to help bring some throwback vibes to the Philadelphia concert.
Reunited rappers Run-DMC, whose two principals hadn't performed together in 13 years - their DJ Jam Master Jay die in 2002 - were the biggest crowd pleasers of the day. Rappers Darryl McDaniels and Joseph Simmons set off the crowd with 1980s rock power-chord boosted bangers like "it's Tricky," "My Adidas" and of course, their trailblazing Aerosmith collaboration "Walk This Way." (Joe Perry and Steven Tyler were only, heard, and not seen, at Made In America, however.) In a touching interlude, the group handed over the wheels of steel to Jam Master Jay's two sons Jason Mizell Jr. and TJ Mizell, both of whom grew up to be Deejays. For an added thrill, the big video screens showed Jay-Z and Beyonce moving through the crowd during the old school rappers' set. (Philly)
Along with Pearl Jam and Run-DMC, Young Money star Drake stole the show Sunday night.
During a festival that operated like clockwork, Drake came out five minutes early. The rapper's meteoric rise and two massively successful albums earned him a mainstage spot headlining for Pearl Jam, and he rifled through a medley of hits in front of easily the largest crowd of the day. Dressed all in white, he delivered the same levels of melodrama live as on his records, with the wailing guitar solos and cymbal crashes only adding to the display of emotion on stage. "I don't need no water, I don't need a break. I'm ready to do this," he told the crowd, before bringing out collaborator 2 Chainz to drop a raucous version of summer smash No Lie. 2 Chainz hijacked the stage to perform Spend It, and minutes after he walked off the stage, Drake introduced French Montana to perform Pop That. (USA Today)
On Friday, Philadelphia rapper Freeway gave SOHH a hint at what Jigga could have in store for the music festival.
"Just be there, man, that's all I'm going to say," Freeway told SOHH. "It's going to be electrifying. I know I'm gonna be there. Just be there, man. It's just good to see all different types of genres of music come together. It's good to see people doing something positive and it's good. I'm a part of it no matter what. I'm a part of it Roc-A-Fella's history. You can't mention Roc-A-Fella without me and I'm a party of Philadelphia history. You can't mention Philadelphia music without me, so, it's big for me, it means a lot to me, you know? I'm happy that it's going down." (SOHH)

Named after the area testpiece, the Cranking Area is, as suggested, the place where one goes to crank. Many of Whiskey's hardest problems are found here.
Getting There
Located on the AT about 250 yards past the Entrance Area. Follow the climber trail through the boulders and under the large overhanging rock, or to approach it directly, follow the white blazed AT where it loops below the ridgeline, bypassing the first boulders.

Once good feet are established, slap up the arete. Move the right hand out to a sidepull pinch. Slap left again and shift feet up until it is possible to bring the left hand way up to a crimp on...[more] Browse More Classics in PA


text: Did anyone catch the Hawks management team on The Score last night before the game? If so, I would be interested to hear what people thought. It has been great to see the change in the organization and makes me excited about hockey again. It is good to see the Hawks on a roll again after a rough stretch.

Joely good show for the Lady from the Sea
10:36am Friday 17th February 2012 in Theatre
British screen actress Joely Richardson will take on a role previously filled by her mother and her sister when she appears in Norwegian playwright Ibsen's The Lady from the Sea next week.
The 47-actress is acclaimed in her own right for roles in shows such US TV series Nip/Tuck and The Tudors.
She played a central role in Scandinavian saga The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo with James Bond actor Daniel Craig and will next appear on film alongside Robert De Niro and Sigourney Weaver.
But as the latest in a line of one of the most well-known theatrical families – her mother is Vanessa Redgrave, her late sister Natasha Richardson and her brother-in-law Liam Neeson – comparisons are inevitable.
The play itself was written in 1888 by Ibsen and tells the symbolic tale of Ellida, a lighthouse keeper's daughter, who lives by a fjord and has to decide whether to stay on dry land with her husband or answer the call of the sea.
Director Stephen Unwin, who will direct an Ibsen play for the fifth time, said: "It gives me huge pleasure to stage Ibsen's elusive masterpiece at the Rose, and I'm doubly delighted that Joely Richardson has decided to mark her return to the British stage with this collaboration."
Lady From The Sea, Rose Theatre, High Street, Kingston, Friday, February 23, to Saturday, March 17. 7.30pm. £8 to £30. Call 08444 821 556 or visit rosetheatrekingston.org

IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (AP) - A U.S. Army soldier from Idaho Falls has died from injuries sustained in an explosion in Afghanistan, family members say.
Lisa Pardonnet said her nephew, 28-year-old Army Corporal Ryan Sharp, died Saturday at a hospital in Germany.
Pardonnet said Sharp was scheduled to finish his third and final tour for the Army next year. He was taking part in a mission in the Kandahar province when the bomb exploded, wounding his legs, shoulder and head. Doctors in Afghanistan induced a coma and then transferred him to Germany for treatment.
Sharp's sister, Michelle Harrison, said Sharp is survived by his two young daughters, 6-year-old Mia and 8-year-old Sarah. The family has established the Ryan D. Sharp Memorial Fund at
the WestMark Credit Union to help cover the girls' expenses.

If you like college basketball and you either have New Year's Eve off work or have a job that won't require much of your attention after lunch, Tuesday is the day for you. College hoops is full of action all day, and there's probably a pun to be made about a ball dropping, but we're too professional to make it.
Just because a bunch of ranked teams are playing on national television — 10 to be exact — none are playing each other, and not many are playing opponents of particular renown. What serves in preview as likely the most interesting game is the Big Ten opener between the No. 3 Ohio State Buckeyes and the Purdue Boilermakers at 1 p.m. ET on ESPN2 and WatchESPN.
The 13-0 Buckeyes will take their nation-leading defense on the road to West Lafayette, Ind., against a Purdue team that hasn't been particularly efficient on offense even if it is 40th in the country with a 37.4 offensive rebounding percentage. Ohio State's 85.5 adjusted defensive efficiency is best in Division I, and the team excels in nearly every defensive metric that KenPom.com tracks. The Buckeyes are elite defensively, and the strength of that defense will play just its second true road game of the season Tuesday (the first was a 52-35 win over the Marquette Golden Eagles on Nov. 16).
Here's a look at the rest of Tuesday's games:
Elon Phoenix vs. No. 7 Duke Blue Devils, 1 p.m. ET, ESPNU/WatchESPN: The Jabari Parker and Friends tour rolls into Greensboro, N.C., for a "neutral" game between Duke and Elon, and it doesn't look good for Elon. The Phoenix aren't particularly big and not particularly deep, and they haven't fared well this season against top competition. Meanwhile, Parker, the 6'8 freshman phenom, has scored no fewer than 15 points in each of the Blue Devils' 12 games this season. He's averaging 53.9 percent from the floor.
Eastern Michigan Eagles at No. 2 Syracuse Orange, 3 p.m. ET, ESPNU/WatchESPN: Syracuse has the best offense in the country according to KenPom.com's adjusted offensive efficiency — the Orange score 119 points per 100 possessions, adjusted for competition — and Eastern Michigan is not the team you'd pick to stop it. The Eagles lost, 82-59, at Duke on Saturday, and opponents get an average of 41.8 offensive rebounding attempts, third-worst among the 351 teams in Division I.
No. 5 Michigan State Spartans at Penn State Nittany Lions, 5 p.m. ET, Big Ten Network: The Spartans seem to have leveled out since a 79-65 home loss to North Carolina and a near-disaster the next time out — a 67-63 win over the Oakland Golden Grizzlies, a team that was 2-8 at the time with one of those wins coming over a non-Division I team. Penn State doesn't turn the ball over much, and senior Tim Frazier has scored in double figures in 11 of the Nittany Lions' 13 games so far.
No. 14 Louisville Cardinals at UCF Knights, 5 p.m. ET, ESPN2/WatchESPN: Louisville has not had a great 72 hours. The Cardinals lost, 73-66, to their archrival, the No. 15 Kentucky Wildcats, on Saturday. And on Monday, head coach Rick Pitino announced that Chane Behanan was dismissed from the team and Kevin Ware would likely miss the rest of the season and seek a medical redshirt. Pitino and the Cardinals hit the road to Orlando to play the first intra-conference game in the history of the American Athletic Conference.
UNC Wilmington Seahawks at No. 19 North Carolina Tar Heels, 5 p.m. ET, ESPNU/WatchESPN: The Tar Heels conclude ESPNU's triple-header Tuesday with a game that does not budget to be one of very high competition. The Seahawks rank No. 255 in KenPom.com's team rankings — for emphasis, again, that's out of 351 Division I teams — and don't really excel at anything in particular. It's North Carolina's final non-conference game before opening its ACC schedule Sunday on the road against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons.
No. 18 Memphis Tigers at South Florida Bulls, 7 p.m. ET, ESPN2/WatchESPN: Memphis has played a top-heavy schedule, the benefit of which was a win over Oklahoma State. But the downside to that is that other than two games against Oklahoma State, one against the Florida Gators and one against the LSU Tigers, Memphis has not played anyone else in KenPom.com's top 150. That changes, though just barely, Tuesday. South Florida comes in to the matchup ranked 149th.
Nebraska Cornhuskers at No. 22 Iowa Hawkeyes, 7 p.m. ET, Big Ten Network: The Hawkeyes have only scored fewer than 80 points once this season — and that was the 77 they scored in an overtime win over Xavier — and odds are, that won't change Tuesday. Nebraska's adjusted defensive efficiency ranks 124th in Division I.
No. 11 Villanova Wildcats at Butler Bulldogs, 7:30 p.m. ET, Fox Sports 1: The ball drops on the new-look Big East on Tuesday — dang it — with an interesting matchup. Villanova is coming off its first loss of the season, a 78-62 loss to Syracuse in the Carrier Dome, and the Wildcats have been awfully impressive otherwise, especially on defense. Butler, despite having to replace coach Brad Stevens and losing Roosevelt Jones to an offseason injury, has been impressive, having only lost to Oklahoma State and LSU on neutral courts.
No. 17 Connecticut Huskies at Houston Cougars, 9 p.m. ET, ESPN2/WatchESPN: UConn and Houston play in the same conference now, because welcome to 2014 in college basketball, so they'll play each other in a game Tuesday that has real implications for both. But because of the early strength of UConn's schedule, Houston — which comes in ranked No. 205 in KenPom.com's team rankings — will be the fourth-worst team the Huskies have played this season.

Albany - After complaints from visitors and business owners, more free parking will soon be available in downtown Albany. County commissioners agreed to return the parking lot on the corner of Broad Avenue and Jackson street to a free lot. And, the decision may save some businesses from going under.
The tables are full at the Harvest Moon restaurant. But a few doors down, the isles are empty at Save-A-Bit store. Owner Helga Cavender says lunch goers take up all the parking spaces. "The parking is terrible downtown," said Cavender. "At first we blamed the restaurants for taking the space, but there are lot of businesses downtown and just not enough spaces."
Downtown businesses are losing customers every day because of a lack of parking. "I would see people drive by about three times and then just go somewhere else," said Harvest Moon owner Bo Henry.
The parking nightmare only worsened when the county decided to turn an adjacent lot into paid parking. At lunch time, it's nearly impossible to find a parking space on Broad Avenue. So if you wanted to eat lunch at Broad Street Bistro or buy a hat at Shinault's, you would have to pay to park in the adjacent lot or in the west deck.
On Monday, Bo Henry and the Downtown Merchant's Association took their parking concerns to county commissioners. And, it worked. "We want to encourage, not discourage, business in downtown Albany, " said Commission Chairman Jeff Sinyard. "So, we freed up that flat lot for customers. We hope more free parking will keep people in the downtown area."
Now you can park for free in the flat lot for up to two hours, which businesses owners hope is enough time to enjoy lunch and shopping. County commissioners plan to study the necessity of paid parking in both the East and West decks as well.

WOODWORTH, La. – Detectives with RPSO have now secured warrants for a man after a routine response to a domestic disturbance call turned into a manhunt Thursday.
According to sheriff's office reports, RPSO has obtained warrants for John E. McNeal, 48, of 402 Bayou Clear Rd. on one count of aggravated second-degree battery and one count of false imprisonment.
RPSO for the man in Woodworth after deputies responded to a domestic disturbance call Thursday morning.
At approximately 8:51 a.m., deputies responded to 402 Bayou Clear Road in Woodworth to check out a domestic disturbance. According to sheriff's office reports, the incident was reported originally to the Woodworth Police Department which notified RPSO.
Upon arrival, the victim, a woman, had sustained injuries and a small laceration on the neck. The woman was treated for injuries at the home.
On Thursday afternoon, deputies are searching for McNeal who reportedly fled the area into the woods near the residence on foot. Authorities say McNeal is a convicted felon with violent tendencies and because of this, RPSO are using bloodhounds to find him.
RPSO detectives are on the scene and the investigation is ongoing.
Detectives say if McNeal was driven away from the area by someone, charges could also be brought against anyone assisting him.
Detectives are also asking for McNeal to turn himself in at the Rapides Parish Courthouse on these charges.
If anyone has information of the whereabouts of John McNeal, please contact RPSO at 318-473-6700.

|Song lyrics
I'm out in the country
But I don't know why
Cause I'm stickly a city loving guy
Just sitting there when a little bird flies my way
hello bee
I looks at him & he's lookin at me
We're both satisfying our curiosity
Who can this be?
Quick like a rabbit I gets me a ?
So I ups to him & I say,
Whatcha say?
"Ohh Miste. Meadowlark we gots a lot of serenading to do."
who to?
"Ooh Mister Meadowlark I'm just a city slicker & I'm counting on you."
She's got a country guy who whistles
My whistle is thin
So when I begin, that's where you come in
Oh you're ? your heart mister meadowlark
Now if you should cop a gander when I'm kissing my chick
Needless to remind I'm gonna have the decency to exit due but quick
Say but what if Mrs. M thinks I'm out stepping?
Fear not, I'll make it alright
For Mr. Meadowlark meet me in the dark tonight
The scene changes, nightfall, our two characters at the ? place, the park,
Spoon and spark with meadowlark
Ooh Mister Meadowlark we're gathered here to witness this moment event
It's a charming little park
Paid for by the city
Now my brother you're a cinch
Cause when I send them, they're sent
You mean you're ready?
Suppose I hit a real good ripple
Well whistle me a whizzer
I'll slip you a ?
Now when I begin
Why that's where I come in
Pretty now
Oh Mister Meadowlark, I guess you know that clinker put the finish oh me
Fair weather friend, eh?
Needn't to remind I hope you know you put me in a practically impossible key
If they squawk then you got to square it
Square it
I'll tell them you're tight with two black birds from Boston
Yes Mister Meadowlark goodnight

A New Dream: Dreamlinux 3.5
Based on Debian's Lenny, version 3.5 of the Brazilian distro Dreamlinux has now been released.
The new 32 Bit release comes with an XFCE desktop as standard with an alternative Gnome version also available. According to a developer announcement, version 3.5 has been optimized for mobile devices with excellent WLAN support for Atheros, Broadcom, Intel and Ralink chip sets.
Dreamlinux 3.5 may be based on Debian 5.0 but it also contains some very up-to-date packages, including the 18.104.22.168 kernel, OpenOffice 3.0 and Firefox 3.1 (via the Easy-install module). Its own installer makes setting up easy, even for beginners and its USB pendrive ability enables the system to run "live" while still saving data changes (persistent).

About Lisa Matassa
At age 19, Lisa Matassa snagged a recording contract under the stage name Lysa Lynn, with the independent label Emergency Records which specialized in producing 1980s dance-pop sensations like recording artist Shannon's dance anthem, "Let The Music Play." Lisa herself enjoyed some early notoriety with two singles, 1987's "I've Got the Hots For You" and 1988's "Rock Me Baby." Both singles got national and international airplay and reached the Top 10 on the Dance Music Charts. During this time, Matassa performed numerous shows alongside artists like Taylor Dayne, Brenda K. Starr, Judy Torres, and TKA to name a few.
Lisa eventually put her music career on the backburner to become a wife and mother of two on New York's Long Island. Now at 40 and with stunning good looks, Lisa is ready to conquer the music scene once again with her own unique style that she lovingly calls, "Long Island Country." With two-time Grammy nominated Executive Producer and writer, Bobby "Guy" Graziose at the helm and collaboration by Producers Joey Sykes (Meredith Brooks, Third Eye Blind, Don Henley) and Tony Bruno (Joan Jett, Enrique Iglesias, Rihanna) Lisa has just released the single, "I Don't Feel Anything," from her soon-to-be-released Extended Play (EP) album, Me Time. Me Time is an inspired musical compilation of strong, rock-based empowering songs with country undertones.
Lisa is currently recording her much anticipated EP, Me Time, at the legendary Cove City Sound Studios in Glen Cove, NY where Long Island music legends like Billy Joel, Mariah Carey and Taylor Dayne have also recorded. Me Time will be released independently through It Is What It Is Records on March 31, 2011, and will be available through iTunes, CD Baby, ReverbNation, Amazon and Music Choice.

Investigators searched two LBS Tax Services offices in Hernando County on Monday, part of a fraud investigation. The searches took place at the LBS offices in Brooksville and Spring Hill. Involved in the operation were the Hernando County Sheriff's Office, the Brooksville Police Department, the Internal Revenue Service and the Secret Service.
Deputies had seen the red-and-white signs advertising tax services along area roadways and heard some complaints, but it was a visit to the sheriff's office by a boyfriend and girlfriend a few weeks ago that spurred this investigation, said detective Bill Horvath of the sheriff's office. The couple had gone to the LBS office in Brooksville and were concerned their refund was too high after talking to family members and an accountant.
"They thought they were going to be in trouble for … the way their taxes were filed," Horvath said. The couple hadn't initially been given copies of their tax return, but requested them from the office and shared them with the detective. "The first thing I noticed was each of them had a business," he said. "I asked them if they actually had a business and they both said no."
Horvath said the companies were "fictitiously created." The strategy, he said, appears to be an effort to get taxpayers to qualify for the Earned Income Tax Credit – boosting both refunds and profits. "LBS inflates their income to a level where they can get this credit and by doing so they have to fill out different IRS forms like the schedule 'C' and they earned income tax forms," he said. "That's where LBS charges between $75 and $100 per form."
The door was locked at the Brooksville LBS office on Tuesday, and the person who answered the phone declined to comment. Employees at the Spring Hill office directed questions to the owner, who said by phone that his lawyers were looking into the matter but that he didn't yet know what was going on. Asked about the allegations that forms were filed for companies clients did not own, he said "we don't do such things."

Here we are at the start of the trade season with a ton of ideas being put forward. Most revolve around the notion of needing a Center. The two that seem to be generating the most support are Asik and Monroe. Each has distinct qualities, so first, what is it that the Celtics' really need.
In the first 25 games, the Celts have 11 wins and 14 losses. They have no wins when they scored less than 90 points. They also have no losses when they scored 100 or more even though in three of those wins they allowed more than 100 points. Only twice have they lost when they held the other team below 90. Both times they failed to score 90 themselves.
The Celtics are fifth in least points allowed, but they are only 23rd in points scored. This tends to indicate that the defense is fine. It is on the offensive end where more help is needed.
While Asik is an elite defender, he gives little on offense. Per 36 his stats read 8.7 Points/ 13.3 Rebounds/ .8 Assists and per Synergy - Offense .83 ppp/ rank 262 & Defense .72 ppp/ rank 23. Also he is 27 years old and makes 8.3M.
Monroe on the other hand is about average on both ends. Per 36 his stats are 16 Points/ 9.5 Rebounds/ 2.4 Assists and per Synergy - Offense .92 ppp/ rank 161 & Defense .86 ppp/ rank 171. He is 23 years old and while he makes 4.1M this year, the wide belief is that he will get a max contract from somebody next year.
How about a third option? After suffering through three seasons in dysfunctional Sacramento and another three under Doug Collins, Spencer Hawes is quietly having a breakout year. His per 36 are 17.1 Points/ 10.1 Rebounds/ 3.4 Assists and per Synergy - Offense 1.01 ppp/ rank 63 & Defense .8/ rank 88. So he is not an elite rim protector, but a very good one, especially considering he plays along side Thad Young and Evan Turner, neither of which would be mistaken for defensive players. And his offense (which the Celts could use) is much better plus he shoots threes at 45% and free throws at 75% (Asik-0 and 64% - Monroe 0 & 63%). Hawes is 25 years old and is on a 6.5M expiring contract. If he worked out, I could see an extension somewhere between Tiago Splitter 8m a year money and Larry Sanders 12M a year. That would be very reasonable for that kind of production. If he doesn't work out he expires at the end of the season.
As is commonly known by now the Celtics have been linked as a possible third team in an Asik trade. Philly wants Asik, but Houston doesn't necessarily want their offer of Thad Young. So who would Houston get? I have read that McHale has told fellow Minnesota native Kris Humphries that he would like to have him. The money works, but I don't know if McHale has that kind of clout. Bass and Lee works as does Green by himself although Houston does not want big long term money. We also know that originally the Rockets were hoping for Ryan Anderson.
What do the Rockets actually need? Since Terrence Jones has stepped up, they really don't need Bass or Humphries. Green doesn't fit because of the contract and they already have Chandler Parsons. What they could use is a good 3&D guy and a good sixth man that spreads the floor.
Enter team four, the Raptors. They want picks or cap space. So the deal could look like this:
Philly gets Asik, Boston gets Hawes and Aaron Brooks (there is a part two to this that I will post tomorrow), Toronto gets Keith Bogans, and Houston gets Steve Novak (an Anderson light if you will) as a sixth man and Courtney Lee for the 3&D. Their combined salaries would be the same as Asik's if he were not traded. Novak was a former second round pick of Houston and is only one season removed from his league leading three point percentage. He just hasn't fit in with Toronto. As for Lee, Houston did not really want to lose him when he came to Boston.
For the Celtics, they would get a productive 7' 245 pound big man for essentially the cost of Lee. It would hurt to lose Lee's bench scoring, but either Sully or Bass would then come off the bench at power forward and if Olynyk starts hitting his shots, it shouldn't be a problem.
Everybody gets what they need. Seems like a win for everyone involved to me.

We've all heard that "perception is reality". In the case of basketball recruiting over the past several years, there seems be a strong contingent of CC posters who "perceive" that it's been terrible. I guess the definition of "terrible" is also up to each own's opinion. I just don't feel that many posters look very deeply to form those opinions.
I've posted this information as a comment a few times, but according to Scout.com, here are our recruiting rankings since 2005:
2005 – 5th
2006 – 9th
2008 – 4th
2009 – 21st
2011 – 6th
Maybe my definition of "terrible" is more lenient than that of other posters, but I'd consider 4 top ten classes in 7 years to be pretty solid. In fact, 3 of those 7 years have landed in the top 6. Clearly, 2007, 2009, and 2010 were disappointing. 2011 really had to be a good year and it has turned out that way despite the circus it became.
I think our perception is built on what becomes of these recruiting classes rather than what those recruiting classes were. If top recruiting classes always translated into final four runs and championships, we would never see George Mason, VCU, or Butler hanging banners in their small gymnasiums.
Speaking of George Mason, let's talk about Luke Hancock. He put up some nice stats last season. The same stats for us would've ranked him second in points and assists. You may say "he did that at George Mason in the CAA", but George Mason got past Villanova in their "second" round game and has posted a final four since our 2005 run. In fact, Hancock posted better stats last year than Ryan Harrow did for NC State.
If you think recruiting has been bad, you have higher expectations than I have. That's my perception.
Before I provide further data, as requested in comments, let me just say that my intent was to raise awareness of the rankings our recruiting classes have been given in recent years by one of the services. We're clearly excited about this year's top 10 class. But, if we don't meet expectations next season on the court, will we then say this recruiting class was bad? Food for thought.
Anyway, here is a comparison of rankings for the same years among some key schools:
2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011
Kentucky NR 16 11 15 1 1 1
North Carolina 4 1 NR 5 3 4 7
Connecticut 25 5 NR 7 13 18 NR
Florida 21 22 3 9 17 14 NR
Duke 2 4 6 13 8 8 2
Memphis 6 25 4 6 NR 2 NR
There was also some questions about what players our rankings were built from. Well, here you go:
Listed in order of Scout ranking. Bold represents players that never showed up or transferred out.
2005 - Johnson, Williams, Huffman, McGee, Harvey, Millard, Holloway
2006 - Caracter, Clark (early entry), Sosa, Smith
2007 - Goode (injuries), Knowles, Holloway
2008 - Samuels (early entry), Jennings (early entry), Swopshire, Kuric
2009 - Siva, Buckles, Van Treese, Marra
2010 - Coleman, Dieng, Smith, Justice
2011 - Blackshear, Behanan, Price, Nunez
I hate to point out the obvious, but our headline recruit has typically left us disappointed in retrospect. I'm confident PS3 will change that pattern along with the incoming freshmen.

Emmanuel Agyemang Badu: It is a crucial game and a key one as such, as far as our ambitions of qualifying to the 2014 FIFA World Cup is concerned. We will approach the game with all the seriousness it deserves. We are ready for Zambia.
Cafonline.com: Ghana needs just a draw to qualify. Do you see it as a done deal?
Emmanuel Agyemang Badu: It will be a difficult game despite the fact that we need just a point to go through. The Zambians are a strong side but we are focused on the game. We are relaxed and we will do our talking on the pitch.
Cafonline.com: How special is this game to you and your colleagues?
Emmanuel Agyemang Badu: It's an important game for us. Our World Cup dreams rests heavily on the outcome of this game and we have to win to remain on course. Playing at the World Cup is a dream for every footballer and we are keen on it.
Cafonline.com: What do you make of the return of Andre Ayew, Michael Essien and Kevin-prince Boateng for this crucial game?
Emmanuel Agyemang Badu: It's a positive sign for us. They are world-class players and will be the envy of every team. Their presence will make the team stronger and also gives us more options especially in midfield.
Cafonline.com: Are you under some form of pressure playing in Kumasi coupled with the weight of expectations?
Emmanuel Agyemang Badu: Not at all. Kumasi has been our home since the beginning of the qualifiers and we are grateful for the support anytime the team plays there. The fans there are great and we expect them to cheer us on to climax our qualification to the next stage in grand style. With the support of the fans, I'm positive we will snatch the three points at the expense of the Zambians.

**Press Release From Kootenai County Office Of Emergency Management**
KOOTENAI COUNTY, Idaho - The National Weather Service has released a Hydrological Statement indicating that the Coeur d'Alene River at Cataldo will reach, "Action Stage" sometime on Friday, April 5th. Action Stage is at 2142 feet, with Minor Flood Stage being at 2143 feet. There are no forecasts at this time indicating that the river will reach Flood Stage. This forecast is based upon the recent warm weather melting of the snowpack at the higher elevations and is coupled with the forecast for rain over the coming days.
The current forecast is for the river to crest at just over 2142 feet (Action Stage) on Friday and remain above Action Stage until approximately mid-day on Sunday. The river should begin to recede rapidly, once it drops below 2142 feet.
There are several bands of rain forecasted for our region which may impact the current river forecast. It is too early for the Weather Service to predict exactly which specific watershed area(s) may receive heavier or lighter rain amounts.
As a precaution, the Kootenai County Office Of Emergency Management (OEM) has staged a flood pump in Cataldo, should it be needed. At current forecast levels, it is not anticipated that the pump will have to be utilized.
Local residents living in low-level, flood prone areas are advised to review their family disaster plans and to take appropriate actions to protect their property now. This may include sandbagging, moving possessions to higher ground or to upper levels within structures and the moving of livestock.
Residents should tune into daily weather forecasts to get the latest on changing conditions and flood warnings. To view the most current river level forecasts for Cataldo, CLICK HERE.
For your safety, do not drive or walk through flowing water. As little as one foot of flowing water on the road can move many vehicles off the road. Also, be cautious of the low water temperatures that may be encountered at this time of year.

I've been ambivalent about the Super Bowl ever since 1969 -- Super Bowl III -- the year Broadway Joe Namath lead the Jets to victory. Yes, I remember Super Bowl III vividly, I was 14 at the time, and no one was policing the punch bowl. It was the only football party that my parents ever threw, and, it had nothing to do with football. Every woman was in love with Namath, including my mother, and, she invited her very best women friends (and their spouses) to HER super-bowl party!
She served some of those little cocktail wieners wrapped in Pillsbury crescent rolls (I know because she had me roll them); some deviled eggs (I know because she had me peel the eggs); and, some black-bottomed cupcakes (I know because I got to lick the bowl)!
At the end of the night, I offered to clean up (for a fee), and, tucked my parents into bed. I cleaned almost until dawn, and, finished what was left of the ginger-ale and Calvert 'punch-like' concoction. My first Super Bowl party, my first all-night party, and, my first hangover...all subsequent Super-Bowl celebrations pale in comparison!!!
In the event you are still pondering ideas for this Sunday night's Super Bowl XLVI, over the past two weeks I worked on a couple of things that will put some spice into your par-tay:
How about a: Thai-Style Ginger-Chicken Pizza made w/Spicy Peanut Sauce & topped w/Sweet Chili Sauce:
And, maybe some: Asian Sriracha Shrimp a la Diavolo to go with it:
Super-spicy isn't what you had in mind, and, you just want to be a couch potato for the night?
How about: Oven-Roasted Sweet Potato 'Fries' w/Allspice 'n Chipotle Chili Sauce
And, maybe a burger or: A Maple-Glazed Ham Slice, that goes from stovetop to TV tray in 6 minutes:
Enjoy the game my foodie friends and don't hit the punchbowl too hard if your favorite team doesn't win!
For these and all of my recipes, just go to:Jessedotsmom's Foodie Blog
For the glory,

Former state Sen. Kyrsten Sinema has won the Democratic primary in Arizona's new 9th Congressional District, while Republican Vernon Parker leads a field of seven Republicans seeking their party's nomination.
Sinema came out ahead of two other high-powered Democratic to advance to the November general election. Current Arizona Senate minority leader David Shapira came in second and former state party chair Andrei Cherny was third.
Parker led the field of GOP hopefuls by 807 votes out of about late 38,000 Republicans votes tallied. But several thousand votes were outstanding.
Parker is a former Paradise Valley mayor.
The 9th district takes in much of Tempe and parts of Phoenix, Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Mesa and Chandler.

So I just tested out my A-5 with my newly mounted sight and Tapco Offset. The sight came with Weaver mounts so I had to mount it on the lower rail, making it completely on the side of the gun. This is all fine and dandy besides the fact that your sight rests against your body when you're using a sling. Well, I guess this would only affect right-handers, but anyhow... I love using my sling, especially since I run remote, but now that I've got the sight on the left side of my gun, I'm kinda stuck between a rock and a hard spot. I can continue using the sling, and risk damaging the sight, or I can quit using my sling altogether. Ugh! Besides that though, I do really like the sight mounted off to the side of the gun. I'd give the Offset Mount a B+ rating.

If you have middle-school age or younger children, you have probably discussed with them the dangers of underage drinking and you probably try to supervise them closely and keep an eye on who they are hanging around with.
You might also want to pay attention to what magazines they read, television programs they watch and radio stations they choose.
That's because the alcohol industry is pouring millions of advertising dollars into that media, trying to influence your children's choices and win their loyalty.
There is a reason for that. There are at least 14 longitudinal studies that have linked youth exposure to alcohol advertising to the likelihood that kids will begin drinking early or, if they have already started drinking, drink more.
For years, the Center on Alcohol Marketing and Youth (CAMY) at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health has been a watchdog of the alcohol industry and its advertising practices. What their research has found might be disturbing to parents trying to keep their children away from substance abuse.
The alcohol industry has voluntarily imposed a 30 percent limit on itself for the size of the underage audience for its advertising, but study after CAMY study has found that America's youth are exposed to much more booze advertising.
Parents Concerned About Advertising PracticesCAMY surveys of parents have found that many parents are concerned about the overexposure to booze ads. Two-thirds of parents believe more ads means more youth drinking and 75% say the alcohol industry should do more to limit youth advertising.
A vast majority of parents surveyed strongly disapproved of alcohol industry practices to produce website that include video games for children and were troubled to learn that young people age 12 to 20 see two beer commercials for every three seen by adults.
Alcohol Advertising Is EffectiveResearch has found that parents have a good reason to be upset. One study found that for each dollar the alcohol industry spends on youth advertising, young people drink 3% more each month. Each advertisement viewed by the 1,872 teens surveyed resulted in a 1% increase in the number of drinks consumed that month.
Young people in markets where there is a saturation of alcohol advertising, tend to keep increasing their drinking over time to the point that they consume an average of 50 drinks per month by age 25. The bottom line is, the more advertising young people see, the more they drink.
Advertising Features Youth-Targeted BeveragesCAMY researchers have revealed that many of the ads placed in magazines with a high youth readership and on radio formats that appeal to ages 12 to 20, are for beverages that appeal to young drinkers. Drinks known as low-alcohol refreshers and "malternatives" are advertised specifically in the youth market.
A five-year study of magazine advertising found that 23.1% of ads for adult alcoholic beverages appeared in magazines with high youth readership, almost double that number (42.9%) of ads for youth alcoholic beverages where placed in the same magazines.
Youth Radio Stations TargetedAnother study found that on radio stations, young people age 12 to 20 heard 8% more beer and ale advertising and 12% more malternative advertising than adults. Surprisingly, youth heard 14% more ads for distilled spirits or hard liquor.
The study found that 73% of alcohol radio advertising were placed on stations with Rhythmic Contemporary Hit, Pop Contemporary Hit, Urban Contemporary and Alternative formats, the type of music that attracts a disproportionately large listening audience of 12 to 20-year-olds.
Specific Groups TargetedOther studies have found that alcohol ads are targeted at specific groups deemed more likely to be vulnerable to the advertising message. Researchers found that in magazines, girls were more targeted than boys with ads for beer and ale, distilled spirits, and low-alcohol refreshers.
African-American youth is another group targeted by the alcohol industry. A CAMY study found that black teens were exposed to 32% more ads in magazines, 17% more on television, and 20% more distilled spirits ads on radio.
The study found that African-American and Hispanic communities were particularly overexposed to radio advertising. Hispanic youngsters heard 34% more beer and ale ads on the radio than Hispanic adults.
Token 'Responsibility' AdsWe've all seen and heard commercials from alcohol advertisers reminding us of the dangers of underage drinking and warning us against drinking and driving. But the truth is those ads are rare.
CAMY found that underage drinkers were 400 times more likely to see an ad for a specific alcoholic beverage than they were to see one discouraging underage drinking and 188 times more likely to see a booze ad than a anti-drunk driving ad.
The study found that advertisement for alcoholic beverages outnumbered the industry's "responsibility" ads by 226 to 1.

We would like to present a guest post by Kaity Nicastri, a well-traveled social worker and friend of Mayu, who has spent much of her time in South America teaching English to primary school kids, among other projects. Thanks, Kaity!
Piiiiissssccoooo! For those of you who have not had the pleasure, nay, the privilege, of sipping a finely (or not so finely) distilled pisco beverage, this post may seem frivolous. But pisco is no laughing matter for Peruvians and Chileans. This is serious business, so put your game face on, and let's take a walk down Pisco Lane.
The Story:
Pisco was first produced during the Spanish viceroyalty era, recorded as early as 1613 in Peru. (For once, colonialism was good for something!) And there are so many legends about how the name was derived that I hesitate to choose only one. Possibly, the port from whence the clear fermented grape brandy was shipped is responsible. (Yes, there is a town named Pisco.) Perhaps it comes from a Quechua word for a bird, pissqu. Now it's the name of a drink, and "pisco grape" is a term that has entered the vocabulary of Chileans and Peruvians alike.
Peru and Chile both claim pisco as their national beverage, and there is some lighthearted (and not-so-lighthearted) rivalry around who should really be able to claim it as a national beverage and export it as such. Numerous (over 50) legal actions have been taken both locally, nationally, regionally, and internationally to decide which country should have the right to exclusive exportation rights. Chile has focused primarily on national regulation and working towards a shared right to exportation, while Peru has primarily exerted efforts to exclude Chile from production and exportation rights.
Why bother arguing? Just drink some pisco and be friends already! Well, of course, money is involved. And taxes. Lots of them. So you have a lot of haggling over which country gets the corner on the pisco market.
The Drink:
Pisco is made from a variety of grapes, and Peru and Chile each have their own standards for the drink. Let's break it down a little:
In terms of grapes used in production, Peru has decided that "Non Aromatic" pisco must be produced by Quebranta, Common Black, Mollar, Uvina, and "Aromatic" pisco must be produced by Italia, Muscat, Albilla, and Torontel. Chile can produce a wider variety of pisco, and uses 11 different kinds of Muscat grapes, Pedro Jimenez, and Torontel.
Then the production varies, with Peru controlling the process very tightly and using specific drums and equipment to maintain the fermented purity of the drink. Chile uses wood to age the crude liquor, while in Peru, it must be with materials that do not change any of the properties.
They went as far as to designate "Pisco Areas". In Peru: Lima, Ica, Chincha, Pisco, Arequipa, Moquegua, Locuma, and Sama and Caplina valleys in Tacna. In Chile: Atacama and Coquimbo in the III and IV Regions of Chile.
What you should do?
Sample some pisco from each country, and decide for yourself which country does it better.
Warning: After a few glasses, it might start to taste the same, though, so perhaps you shouldn't drink all of them at once. Also, pregnant women, and person suffering from health conditions aggravated by drinking alcoholic beverages should not participate. (Don't say you weren't warned!)
Some combinations I personally recommend: Pisco Sour, Piscola (Pisco + Coke), Pisco + Sprite, or Pisco Mango. However, feel free to try others and report back!
Spoken like a true Pisco fanatic! (Just in time for the weekend, right?!) If you can, [responsibly] try some delicious Pisco prontisimo! And as always, remember to check back with Mayu on Twitter, Facebook and our blog for our favorite recipes, as well as exciting news about Peru, sustainability, eco-fashion, fair trade, and hand-knit alpaca!

There are a couple of items I couldn't find in Carbide.ui 4.2 for Anna (to be used on an N8), no matter how I tried. Somebody might know where they actually hide?
- Search home screen widget (Google + My Contents) text entry color. None of the usual text input colors seem to apply.
- Clock application, New Alarm button text color.
- Calculator application, text color on the paper tape-like display.
- Toolbar icons of the new Mail application. Previous messaging and related icons do not apply.
- Web feed application (the one you land in when you have RSS home screen widgets) toolbar icons. Although it would be very logical, it does not use the browser toolbar icons.
And finally: how does one (re)create special folders like Internet, Tools if they are missing or deleted?

On Saturday, rap hero Nas will no doubt sell out the MGM Grand Theater at Foxwoods. After all, his 11 albums, including July's oft-venomous "Life is Good" (written after his divorce from Kelis), have moved more units than there are unsold copies of Snooki novels sitting in publishing house warehouses across the universe!
Yes, then, fans will doubtlessly hear such new Nas-ty ruminations as "Summer Smash" and "Bye Baby" as well as vintage hits like "Thugz Mansion," "I Can" and "Black Republican."
What would be pretty funny, though, is if Nas blew off the hip-hop material and, instead, refused to do anything but a replication of his two-minute cameo on the "Hawaii 5-0" television series. Two years ago, Nas played a parole violator on the program - and it was the best actor/musician crossover since Sir Paul "A Man For All Seasons" Scofield briefly replaced the late Ol' Dirty Bastard in the Wu Tang Clan.
Nas, 8 p.m. Saturday, MGM Grand Theater at Foxwoods; $38-$78; 1-800-200-2882, foxwoods.com.
