No matter what happened on the field Saturday, the action paled in comparison to the off-the-field news. The Big East is scrambling to survive as conference with Syracuse and Pitt as good as gone to the ACC.
Commissioner John Marinatto, silent all day, issued a statement late Saturday night:
"Although I was obviously very disappointed to learn the news about the ACC's being in discussions about membership with the University of Pittsburgh and Syracuse University, I continue to believe the Big East Conference is well positioned for the future and that the events of the past 24 hours will unify our membership. We have been working steadily to solidify and strengthen the Big East Conference and position us for our upcoming TV negotiations and I am confident that we will again emerge from this situation and remain strong."
A lot of fans beg to differ. Losing Syracuse -- a founding member of the league -- and Pitt is a punch in the gut. And to the ACC -- a league that has raided the Big East once before has got to be even more galling. It was a month ago that Marinatto made headlines for wanting to reach out to his fellow commissioners about realignment. Now, his conference is in full-on survival mode.
There are so many unanswered questions tonight. The most logical place for the Big East to look would be the Big 12 -- if that league falls apart. Oklahoma is set to have a board of regents meeting on Monday, so we could know more then about whether the Sooners decide to stay or move on to the Pac-12. That could end up being a factor in what the Big East does.
What of the current league schools? It is every president and athletic director for himself. Loyalty is a nice concept, but there is no such thing in this landscape. Pitt and Syracuse were looking out for their best interests. Now every other league member has to do the same. Several schools issued statements in which they said they were aware of the shifts. Louisville athletic director Tom Jurich told the Courier-Journal he was keeping all his conference options open. You can bet every remaining Big East team is doing the same.

Mixed round for Danny Lee, still in contention
Relevant offers
Danny Lee had a typically up and down round at The Barclays, the PGA Tour's end of season opener, but remains well placed.
The Kiwi No 2 shot a one-under 70 in New Jersey to get to five-under for the tournament and be in a tie for 16th.
He made four birdies and three bogeys in his third round, but it could have been much better had he not bombed the 572m par-five 13th.
Lee was just 45m short of the green for two, but took a bogey six.
He flubbed his third into the bunker, went over the back of the green with his fourth into another bunker before getting up and down for a costly bogey on a hole plenty of players were picking up shots on. He remains just four shots off the lead held by Jason Day and Jim Furyk.
Kiwi No 1 Tim Wilkinson is also in the field and shot one-over 72.
He's two-over for the event and in a tie for 71st after only narrowly making the cut.

Originially from Lynchburg, VA, going to school in Durham, NC, interning in Schnectady, NY. So I suppose I'm "from" any one of those three at the moment. I'm currently in a dual Master's degree program between Duke University's School of the Environment and the University of North Carolina's Business School, but will be finishing this year. I like to travel, drink good beer, hike, talk about non-trivial things, and many other things.

After years of fighting a streak of bad luck, Taos' business community has seen a couple rays of sunshine recently.
First, Pres. Barack Obama signed a proclamation March 25 establishing the Río Grande del Norte National Monument — a major act that is estimated to draw more visitors and create millions in new revenue. On the same day, Taos Solar Music Fest announced that red-hot British band Mumford and Sons would be playing a June 6 show in Kit Carson Park in front of 8,000 people.
The back-to-back shots in the arm appear to have rejuvenated those in the local tourism industry who've been battling a tough economy and lingering drought for years. Local leaders say the serendipitous announcements are an "opportunity" that can't be squandered.
"Is this a kickstarter that could get things moving in the right direction? Absolutely," says Jamie Tedesco, marketing director for The Taos Inn and director of the Taos chapter of the New Mexico Green Chamber.
By several metrics, tourism in Taos continues to languish. Lodgers tax (an indicator of hotel stays) is flat in town and well below pre-recession numbers, while gross receipts taxes (which represents overall economic activity) are still struggling to gain traction.
To turn things around, organizations like the Taos Tourism Council, the Taos Lodgers Tax Board and the Taos Arts and Cultural District have been busily brainstorming ways to capture the momentum. Most are asking the same question: How can we best use these events as a springboard to convince people to come back to Taos and stay longer?
Part of the answer is ensuring that the thousands of visitors coming to the Mumford and Sons concert have a good experience. That means giving them a lot to do while they're here. It also means adequate parking, convenient food and water, and plenty of Porta Potties.
Taos Solar Fest organizer Dawn Richardson says the biggest crowd the event has handled until now was 7,000 people and that was over the course of an entire day. To funnel 8,000 people in and out of the park in a single evening is going to require some strategic planning.
"We are very aware that this is an opportunity to succeed, but it's also an opportunity to fail," says Taos Town Manager Oscar Rodríguez. As such, the town is working with event organizers to iron out things like how to bus people to and from parking lots to the concert grounds.
In addition, Rodríguez says the town is encouraging businesses to think outside the box. "This could be a little bit of a change in the way we do business," Rodríguez says. He's encouraging restaurants to set up temporary vending booths near the park and asking businesses to stay open later to accommodate the crowds. The gate to the park isn't scheduled to open until 6 p.m., and the concert could go as late as 11:30 p.m.
There is also a suggestion that the town would close Civic Plaza Drive on the night of the show and open the convention center for additional vendors and to have extra bathrooms available.
Cindy Spray with the Taos Arts and Cultural District says a group of downtown merchants will be meeting Friday (May 3) morning at the Harwood Museum to talk about ways businesses can drum up excitement and activity downtown before the concert begins.
"What I don't want is for business owners to be hiding in their shops ruing the tons of people who are in town," Spray said. "This should be fun, and we should be doing everything we can to make it fun."
Joanie Griffin's marketing firm Griffin and Associates is contracted with the town to do promotion and advertising. Griffin says email blasts will be going to people on her mailing list to let them know what's going on in Taos before and after the concert. The idea is to convince visitors to stay for more than just the Thursday show.
With the concert already sold out, restaurants are staffing-up to handle the flood of customers, and some hotels are already reporting they've got no rooms for the night. In the short term, everyone agrees that the concert is going to bring a much-needed boost at the start of summer tourist season. The trick is making sure the impact lasts.
"No matter what happens, we're going to make money," Griffin says. "But people can either walk away saying, 'We gotta come back,' or 'Taos sucks.' We want them to come back."

Bush needs to tell Americans that the nation faces "a long, hard slog" in Iraq, Senator John McCain, an Arizona Republican, said on NBC's "Meet the Press" on Sunday.On the same day, Senator Chuck Hagel, a Nebraska Republican, said the White House is "disconnected from reality" in its optimism over the war.
McCain, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said: "Too often we've been told and the American people have been told that we're at a turning point.
"What the American people should have been told and should be told ... [is that] it's long; it's hard; it's tough. It's going to be at least a couple more years."Falling support
Hagel, a member of the Foreign Relations Committee was quoted by US News and World Report as saying the administration's Iraq policy is failing.
"Things aren't getting better; they're getting worse. The White House is completely disconnected from reality. It's like they're just making it up as they go along. The reality is that we're losing in Iraq."

Iraq's al-Qaida group claimed responsibility for the bombing and said US forces are doomed to failure.Although there are some hopeful signs in Iraq, Cheney's characterisation is inaccurate, McCain said.
More than 1722 US soldiers have been killed in Iraq "I don't think Americans believe that we should cut and run out of Iraq by any stretch of the imagination," he said. "But I think they also would like to be told, in reality, what's going on."Democratic Senator Christopher Dodd of Connecticut, a member of the Foreign Relations Committee, said on "This Week" on ABC: "It's important the administration quit trying to pretend everything is going very well here. It's not."CIA Director Porter Goss, however, said Cheney's assessment is not too far off-mark."I think they're not quite in the last throes, but I think they are very close to it," Goss told Time magazine. The emergence of an Iraqi government shows the fighters are "unwanted", he said.'Making progress'
More than 1722 US soldiers have been killed in Iraq
But Senator Joseph Biden of Delaware, the top Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Goss' statement does not comport with what he heard on a recent visit to Iraq. "I wish Porter Goss would speak to his intelligence people on the ground," Biden said on CBS's "Face the Nation". "They didn't suggest at all it was near its last throes. Matter of fact it's getting worse, not better," Biden said.

Bush said Iraq presented a "vital test" for American security. "The mission isn't easy, and it will not be accomplished overnight," he said on Saturday in his weekly radio address.US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said any withdrawal of US troops will depend on Iraq's ability to handle its own security, and said events are moving in the right direction."The security forces of Iraq are getting better. We're making progress, making steady progress. They're not yet ready but they are taking over every day more and more of what the coalition has done. And that will mean that there is less need for coalition forces," she told "Fox News Sunday".

Romney: "You Know Obama's A Complete SCOAMF On Libya, Right?"
OK, he didn't call Obama a stuttering clusterf*ck of a miserable failure, but, dog whistle, you know?
(Fox News) Mitt Romney, fresh off what by most accounts was his victory Wednesday night in the first debate with President Obama, said in a Fox News interview that the deadly consulate attack in Libya was a "tragic failure" of security and that the Obama admiration's explanations have been "misleading."
"Let me note my condolences and sympathy for the families of those who lost their lives," Romney told Fox News in a joint interview with his running mate, Paul Ryan. "I believe obviously what happened there was a tragic failure. There had been warnings of a possible attack, there were requests … to have additional security forces. They were turned down."
"This was a terrorist attack. Lives were lost," Romney said. "We expect candor and transparency from the president and from the administration, and we didn't get it."
Eli Lake, who has been doing the hard work on investigating Libya (which most media outlets haven't) told us Thursday
In the six months leading up to the assault on the United States consulate in Benghazi, the State Department reduced the number of trained Americans guarding U.S. facilities in Libya, according to a leading House Republican investigating the Sept. 11 anniversary attacks. The reduction in U.S. security personnel increased America's reliance on local Libyan guards for the protection of its diplomats. (snip)
On Tuesday, Chaffetz and the oversight committee's chairman, Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), disclosed in a letter to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton details of an alleged April 6 bombing at the consulate. The letter detailed how in the run-up to the 9-11 assault there was an escalation of military-style attacks on Western targets in Libya's second-largest city. The letter also said U.S. security personnel had requested, and were denied, additional security for the U.S. embassy in Tripoli and the consulate in Benghazi.
Eli notes that a State Department official stated that "it was routine to reduce the number of U.S. personnel serving in new diplomatic posts such as Benghazi over time." Perhaps in a country that is stable and doesn't have to deal with large numbers of Islamic extremists and members of al Qaeda in the area. Perhaps in countries where the diplomatic personnel haven't asked for more protection. Perhaps at diplomatic posts that haven't seen multiple attacks over the previous months, and where they hasn't been "an escalation of military-style attacks on Western targets in Libya's second-largest city."

Man Struck By Falling Bullet on New Year's Eve
Despite almost embarrassing amounts of public outreach to remind Miamians not to shoot their guns off into the air every time they see fireworks, a man was struck by a falling bullet on New Year's Eve.
According to CBS Miami, the incident occurred on Northwest 25th Avenue and Northwest 32nd Street. The victim was struck by a falling bullet, but luckily avoided major tragedy. He was merely grazed in the shoulder.
"We had a lot of friends and family in my yard and fireworks were being fired off," Randy Ruiz, the homeowner who was hosting the party the victim was attending, told the station. "Just after midnight, one of the guests complained of blood on his shirt. So we quickly ran over to see what was going on and saw there was blood on his left arm."
There is another unconfirmed report of a stray bullet hitting a man near Northwest Second Avenue and 71st Street.
Luckily, unlike in year's past, it appears no one was seriously injured and no children were involved.
But, you guys, seriously: STOP FIRING YOUR GUNS INTO THE AIR ON NEW YEAR'S EVE AND THE FOURTH OF JULY. JEEZ.

June of 1970 my father died. That year at Christmas my mother, wisely, took me and my cousin on a European tour timed to be with my brother serving in the Army in Berlin. Rome was a featured stop. She wasn't really an art aficionado however La Pieta entranced her. She spent more than an hour gazing at this amazing...
When Cardinal Jean Bilheres acting on behalf of Pope Alexandar VI (the same as TV show The Borgias) approached Michelangelo the commission was simple "Make the most beautiful statue ever". One can argue that he succeeded.
The crowds push to get closer and one can well understand why. The Pieta is stunning.
It's so real looking you expect Jesus's ribcage to expand with an intake of air. Mary's face is so peaceful and so sorrowful at the same time. It is a wonder to behold.
I have read so much about this Pieta.....
Seeing in person is nothing compared to all the words which described it.
I wanted to see the signature but we couldnt get closer to see it.
It is said that around 200 years ago the statue was broken and fixed again.
Please do not miss it .
Created by michelangelo, so no surprise that is a beauty. Its well preserved and it glows so well from the light just like when you enter to visit david in florence. It really pulls you in. Only complain is that you cant get any closer to it (its protected by a glass wall)
This statue is located in St Peters Basicia. It is now located behind protective glass. The statue is sculpted from marble, but it is easy to forget that fact. The way the fabric on Mary has folds or the attention to detail on the muscle tone, it simply must be seen to fully appreciate.
I'm not a great lover of statues but this was awe-inspiring especially as Michelangelo did the work when he was aged only 23. It is behind bullet proof glass due to some deranged person going at it with a hammer 30 years ago.
Very evocative, as I mention in my review of St. Peters. The work is a masterpiece by Michelangelo, not to be missed.
When in Rome, search for Michelangelo and Bernini sculptures in the Vatican, in the delightful fountains, in numerous small and intimate churches and in the Borghese Museum. Both the excellence in carving and understanding of the human spirit take your breath away.
A beautiful Michelangelo in a beautiful basilica. Just perfection. How could one person be so very talented?

David Cameron accused of 'scaremongering' as new crackdown on immigration unravels
Migrants must earn the right to NHS treatment and state benefits as PM vows dilute the 'pull factor' of Britain
Andrew Grice
Andrew Grice has been Political Editor of The Independent since 1998. He was previously Political Editor of The Sunday Times, where he worked for 10 years, and he has been a Westminster-based journalist since 1982. His column, Inside Politics, appears in The Independent each Saturday.
Monday 25 March 2013
A pledge by David Cameron to reduce the pressures on public services by migrants ran into immediate trouble as he was accused of "scaremongering" and exaggerating the scale of the problem.
In a speech in Ipswich, the Prime Minister vowed to end Britain's reputation as a "soft touch" by reducing the rights of migrants to state benefits, NHS treatment and council housing. He announced that migrants who fail to learn English could lose any right to jobless benefits and added: "When it comes to illegal immigrants we are rolling up that red carpet and showing them the door."
But Downing Street struggled to provide figures to illustrate the extent of the problem and the headline-grabbing crackdown may turn out to be less severe than it first appeared. Mr Cameron said people from the European Economic Area (EEA) -the 26 EU countries plus Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein-would lose their right to jobseeker's allowance after six months unless they have a "genuine chance" of finding work. But they can already be stopped from claiming unless they have a "reasonable chance."
Latest government figures suggest that, of the 2.2m net migrants from the eight Eastern European nations that joined the EU in 2004, only 12,850 claimed jobseeker's allowance.
Number 10 said the NHS should recoup between £10m and £20m from EEA nationals' health treatment in the UK under reciprocal agreements. But Jeremy Hunt, the Health Secretary, suggested the NHS was losing £200m. He said there was a "strong incentive" for hospitals not to declare a person "a foreigner" because they then had to chase payments.
Downing Street said the number of new social housing lettings going to migrants had risen by 40 per cent between 2007-08 and 2011-12 -but later admitted such lettings still accounted for only 9 per cent of the total.
Sarah Mulley, associate director of the Institute for Public Policy Research, said: "Mr Cameron risks reinforcing a myth that you get straight off a plane and get a council house. Politicians should take care not to stoke fears that are not grounded in fact. The vast majority of immigrants are in the private rented sector."
Jonathan Portes, director of the National Institute of Economic and Social Research, described Mr Cameron's proposals as a "sideshow" which would make little difference. The vast majority of migrants from EEA nations were young, healthy and mostly in work and made a net contribution to the economy through their taxes, he said.
Right-wing Tory MPs welcomed the Prime Minister's speech. But not all Tories were happy. A survey of Tory members by the Bright Blue modernisers' group, Mr Cameron's natural allies, found a mixed reaction to the party's target to reduce net migration to less than 100,000 a year by 2015. While 37 per cent regard it as a "good policy," 29 per cent believe of is "damaging Britain's economic competitiveness" and 33 per cent think that all students should be exempt from the target -a move favoured by Vince Cable, the Liberal Democrat Business Secretary but strongly opposed by Theresa May, the Home Secretary.
Ryan Shorthouse, director of Bright Blue, said:"The immigration cap, and sounding like you're toughening the rules for immigrants, is risky: politically, socially and economically. The Government may be raising expectations of reducing immigration to a level that cannot be delivered. And this direction of travel is not the solution to the social problems people are understandably worried about: they are actually more to with capacity in our public services, the performance of the labour market and the adequacy of our education system. It could just stoke more anger towards immigrants, solving nothing. This country urgently needs economic growth. So it is odd that the Government wants to reduce the number of productive workers and consumers of goods entering our economy".
Habib Rahman, chief executive of the Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants, said: "This rhetoric may curtail rights to benefits on a minor scale, but relatively few migrants compared with 'indigenous' people actually claim benefit anyway. The real effect of this speech will be to further increase the intolerance and the hostile reception that immigrants are facing from some sections of society."
Mark Serwotka, general secretary of the Public and Commercial Services Union, accused Mr Cameron of "scaremongering" and making "a desperate appeal to the worst extremes of his party"
Asked how many people his measures would stop coming to Britain, Mr Cameron declined to give a figure but promised "further progress" towards his target.
His other proposals include:
* EEA nationals, including Romanians and Bulgarians, will lose Jobseeker's Allowance and other benefits after six months unless they have a "genuine chance" of finding work and can show they have been trying to do so
* A tougher "habitual residence test" before migrants receive income-related benefits
* Local authorities to bring in a "local residency test" for council housing, so migrants have to live in an area for two-to-five years to join a waiting list
* Closing a loophole which allows people who have overstayed their visa to claim some benefits based on their national insurance contributions
* A crackdown on illegal immigrants, with penalties for hiring them doubled to £20,000 per worker and landlords fined for renting to them.
Although the three main parties deny launching an "arms race" on immigration, they have all now toughened their stance since the 2010 election – partly in response to the anti-EU UK Independence Party, which has stoked fears about an influx of Romanians and Bulgarians. Ministers insist Mr Cameron's measures were being drawn up before the recent controversy. However, it is no coincidence that the curb on jobless benefits will take effect early next year.
Further measures may follow on the admission of migrants' children to state schools. Mark Harper, the Immigration Minister, told Sky News: "We want to make sure our rules are among the toughest in the world."
However, the all-party Home Affairs Select Committee warned that tens of thousands of asylum-seekers who UKBA has given up trying to trace may still be living in Britain. It said the backlog of cases now stands at more than 312,000, the population of Iceland. "No sooner is one backlog closed, than four more are discovered," said Keith Vaz, the committee's Labour chairman. "At this rate it will take 24 years to clear the backlog."
The MPs accused UKBA bosses of misleading them about the backlogs for six years as they tried to "sweep its mistakes under the carpet". They were "astounded" that Lin Homer, UKBA's former head, was made permanent secretary of HM Revenue & Customs and had little confidence in her ability to run a government department. They said it was "appalling" that she was trying to "evade responsibility for her failings" at UKBA.
Last night Ms Homer rejected the strong criticism as "both untrue and unfair." She accused the committee of blaming her for problems at UKBA which occurred long after she left.
Party politics: What they would do
Conservatives Will restrict access of foreign nationals to benefits, NHS treatment and social housing; tougher action on illegal immigrants, including doubling penalties for employing them.
Labour Admits mistakes by previous government; would restrict low-skilled migration; would probably keep Tories' cap on visas for skilled migrants.
Liberal Democrats Propose "security bond" of at least £1,000 for visa applications from "high risk" countries.
