Carolina Tar Heels
Despite winning only four games, new head coach Butch Davis laid the
foundation for the future in Chapel Hill, filling his two-deep with
a number of freshmen and sophomores that'll benefit from this year's
hands-on experience. Save for games at South Florida and Wake
Forest, the Heels were competitive every Saturday, picking up
building-block wins over Miami and Maryland along the way. Sensing
that far better days lie ahead at Carolina, Davis remained committed
to the program, even after other schools showed interest in his
services in December.
Offensive Player of the Year: WR Hakeem Nicks
Defensive Player of the Year: LB Durell Mapp
Biggest Surprise: The Oct. 6 upset of once-beaten Miami. The
Heels jumped all over the 'Canes, holding on for a 33-27 win, and
handing Davis his first signature win versus his former employer.
It was the type of victory that the neophyte Carolina program will
point to when it eventually makes it back to the postseason.
Biggest Disappointment: Losing to NC State on Nov. 10.
Although the Tar Heels probably grew numb to close defeats by the
final month of the season, this one really stung. North
Carolina blew a fourth quarter lead, rallied back down the field,
but stalled on the Wolfpack 7-yard line with a few ticks left on the
Looking Ahead: Don't get bogged down solely by wins and
losses when evaluating North Carolina's progress as a program.
Davis is back in his element, rebuilding a sleeping giant with
budding talents on both sides of the ball, such as QB T.J. Yates, DT
Marvin Austin, and S Deunta Williams. If Yates continues to develop
and the Heels learn to win the close ones, they'll be competing for
more than just moral victories next November.

North Carolina 20 ... Duke 14 OT
North Carolina took advantage of a missed field goal in overtime
with a 25-yard Greg Little touchdown run in the comeback win. The
Tar Heels started out the scoring with a nine-yard pass play to
Brandon Tate, but Duke's defense held until late in the fourth while
the offense got Jomar Wright touchdown catches from 25 and four
yards out. Little ran for a seven-yard touchdown midway through the
fourth to tie it, but Duke had one last chance late to win it in
regulation with a 40-yard field goal attempt that went wide left.
Player of the game:
North Carolina RB Greg Little ran 26 times for 154 yards and two
touchdowns, and caught two passes for 11 yards.

Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ...
The Tar Heels have lost games this year when they've played well,
and now they've won one after playing like garbage. They had no
right to pull off the win over Duke with so many mistakes and so
many misfires from the passing game, but the defense did a great job
of bending, but not breaking, while Greg Little ran extremely well
to carry the offense. It's all about building for the future for the
young team, and this win might turn out to be a huge stepping stone
for next season. Winning ugly is still winning.
Nov. 17
Georgia Tech 27 ... North Carolina 25
Georgia Tech PK Travis Bell overcame an earlier miss to nail a
27-yard field goal with 16 seconds to play for the win. The Yellow
Jackets lost four fumbles, but the defense more often than not bent
without breaking as UNC settled for four Connor Barth field goals
and got into the end zone on a 14-yard Hakeem Nicks catch and a
one-yard Anthony Elzy run. Greg Smith caught touchdown passes from
40 and 47 yards out for Tech, while RB Tashard Choice, who ran for
142 yards, threw a 17-yard scoring pass to QB Taylor Bennett. UNC
finished converting just one of 13 third down chances.

Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ...
Third down conversions. North Carolina
couldn't come up with them against Georgia Tech and it lead to four
field goals. A more experienced team would've been able to put the
game away this week by taking advantage of every opportunity, and
better production from T.J. Yates on key plays would've made it
happen. Even so, this was another good performance that just so
happened to turn into a loss. UNC is about five plays away from
being around 7-4 and in the bowl picture. Again, more experienced
teams get those plays.
Nov. 10
NC State 31 ... North Carolina 27
Jamelle Eugene ran for his third touchdown with 1:41 to play,
taking it in from one-yard out, and the defense held as NC State
survived a late rally. The Wolfpack got up 17-0 early and
appeared on the verge of a blowout, when Charles Scott took a
Daniel Evans pass 92 yards for a touchdown. Down 24-10 in the
second half, UNC got a 50-yard touchdown catch from Brandon
Tate, a 27-yard field goal, and a 76-yard Kendrick Burton
interception return for a score to take a 27-24 lead. But an
interception from DeMario Pressley set up the Wolfpack on the
Tar Heel 25 to set up the final score. UNC LB Durrell Mapp made
23 tackles.
Player of the game:
NC State RB Jamelle Eugene ran 32 times for 159 yards and three

Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ...
North Carolina did a great job to come back against NC State
twice when it could've gotten blown out, but it gave up a key
turnover late and couldn't hold. There has to be more of a
running game, gaining a mere 12 yards, and the entire offense
can't be all on T.J. Yates, but the team is making strides. Now
any hope of bowl eligibility is gone, but that doesn't mean the
season is over. Beating Georgia Tech and Duke would set a great
tone for 2008.
Nov. 3
North Carolina 16 ... Maryland 13
Connor Barth hit two 45-yard field goals in the second
quarter, along with a 23-yarder, and Hakeem Nicks caught a
30-yard touchdown pass as North Carolina shocked Maryland. The
Terp struggled offensively all game long, but rallied from a
16-3 deficit to get a five-yard Keon Lattimore touchdown run and
a 29-yard Obi Egekeze field goal, but couldn't get any closer as
a final drive stalled allowing the Tar Heels to run out the
clock. The two teams combined for 20 penalties and five

might not have been a thing of beauty, but the Tar Heels will
take it. A win over Maryland keeps the dream of a bowl game
alive, but to get by road games against NC State and Georgia
Tech, before dealing with Duke, there has to be more offensive
production. They got away with 259 yards against the Terps, but
that's a tough way to try to win. T.J. Yates threw two picks,
there was a fumble, and 11 penalties, but the team found a way
to win. The explosion has to start to kick in; the Terps didn't
respect the deep ball at all.
Oct. 26
Wake Forest 37 ... North Carolina 10
Wake Forest jumped out to a 10-0 lead helped by a six-yard
Josh Adams touchdown run. and then answered a 38-yard Connor
Barth field goal with a 98-yard kickoff return for a touchdown
from Kevin Marion. The Demon Deacons only gained 269 yards of
total offense, but took advantage of every opportunity with
Adams running for a 14-yard score on the first play after a
turnover, and LB Aaron Curry took a pass 77 yards for a score.
Sam Swank became the Wake Forest all-time leading scorer hitting
field goals from 23, 22 and 46 yards out.

Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... North
Carolina had two weeks off and came up with that? The defense
did a decent job against Wake Forest with few long drives
allowed, but it wasn't tight when it absolutely had to be, and
it didn't do much to help out the struggling offense. T.J. Yates
had a decent day throwing the ball, but there weren't any
game-changing passes to save the struggling running game. With
Maryland up next, there has to be more offensive pop.
Oct. 13
South Carolina 21 ... North Carolina 15
South Carolina jumped out to a 14-0 first quarter lead on two
Chris Smelley touchdown passes, with a three-yard strike to Dion
Lecorn and a 30-yard play to Kenny McKinley, and was up 21-3 at
halftime on a 12-yard Jared Cook touchdown catch. And then the
Gamecock offense couldn't put any points on the board, while the Tar
Heels got a touchdown pass and run from T.J. Yates to pull within
six with three minutes to play. Yates had one last shot, getting to
the South Carolina 31, but couldn't get any closer as time ran out.

Yates is improving, defense did a great job against South Carolina,
and now, this is a tough out week in and week out. There will be
problems along the way, forget about a winning season of a bowl, but
after the way the Tar Heels played against Miami and South Carolina,
hope is sky high. A few wins in the ACC race would accelerate the

North Carolina 33 ... Miami 27
North Carolina roared out to a 27-0 lead highlighted by a
54-yard Brandon Tate touchdown on an end around, and a 39-yard
Anthony Elzy scoring dash, and then held on for dear life. Miami
roared back in the third quarter, scoring 20 points on a one-yard
Kyle Wright touchdown run, a four-yard pass to Sam Shields, and then
a 97-yarder bolt of lightning from Darnell Jenkins. The Tar Heels
were able to stay ahead with two of Connor Barth's four field goals
for just enough points to overcome a one-yard Javarris James scoring
run set up by a long Jenkins punt return. UNC recovered the onside
kick and ran the clock out. Miami threw four interceptions, while
UNC only lost one fumble.

might have had to hold on to its breath, but thanks to an impressive
early start, clutch play from the defense, and the leg of Connor
Barth, it pulled off the shocker over Miami. This is a young team
that might feed off this win, having the confidence to do more in
ACC play in a few weeks. It helped that Miami didn't tackle well
early on, but give credit to the Tar Heels for being creative, and
taking advantage of the holes that were there. Butch Davis had to
have enjoyed this.
Sept. 29
Virginia Tech 17 ... North Carolina 10
It wasn't pretty, but Virginia Tech pulled off the win with
short touchdown runs from Tyrod Taylor and Branden Ore, and got
stingy defense throughout. The Tar Heels only managed a 32-yard
Connor Barth field goal in the first 54 minutes, and then made
things interesting with a one-yard scoring run from Anthony Elzy.
They got into Hokie territory on a final drive, but a sack and a
false start penalty killed the comeback attempt. UNC outgained Tech
306 yards to 241. The two teams combined for ten sacks.

Tar Heel defense did a great job of keeping the Virginia Tech
offense in check, while the offense had its moment. T.J. Yates is a
baller; he was hit time and time again, and still hung tough under
the pressure. Anthony Elzy ran well, and Hakeem Nicks had a nice
game, but to beat the better teams, someone has to explode. Miami is
beatable, but the offensive line will have to play far better next
week to come up with the huge home win.

South Florida 37 ... North Carolina 10
South Florida suffocated North Carolina's offense all game
long, not allowing a touchdown until the final minute, while the
Bull offense overcame three turnovers to get three Delbert Alvarado
field goals, five-yard touchdown runs from Mike Ford and Benjamin
Williams, and a 12-yard Amarri Jackson 12-yard scoring grab. Jamar

Heel offense will have to get used to several uneven offensive
performances, especially against phenomenal defenses like South
Florida's. In games like this, it'd be nice if there was a pounding
running game to take the heat off QB T.J. Yates, and to slow down
the pass rush, but it wasn't happening. Yates never had a chance to
breathe, and now it'll only get worse with a trip to Virginia Tech
ahead. To survive, the Yates will have to get the ball out of his
hands quicker.
Sept. 15
Virginia 22 ... North Carolina 20
Virginia held on as North Carolina's two-point conversion
attempt after a two-yard touchdown catch to Richard Quinn got the
Tar Heels close. Cedric Peerman ran for a one-yard score, and was
the workhorse all game long. Unfortunately for the Cavaliers,
several drives ended in field goals instead of touchdowns, with
Chris Gould connecting from 51, 28, 37, 48 and 32 yards out. North
Carolina stayed alive on the combination of T.J. Yates to Hakeem
Nicks, with the two hooking up for a four-yard score in the final
seconds of the first half, and Nicks taking a short pass and weaving
and bruising his way to a 53-yard score.

Fine, so the Tar
Heels couldn't win at home against a mediocre team like Virginia,
but this was still a positive step forward for the rebuilding
program. QB T.J. Yates appears to be a keeper. He showed good poise,
made several big plays, and while he got a ton of help from Hakeem
Nicks and the receivers, he played like a leader the program needs.
The defense couldn't handle the Virginia ground game, but it did a
good job of generating pressure.
Sept. 8
East Carolina 34 ... North Carolina
ECU PK Ben Hartman missed three field goals, but he nailed a
39-yard shot with no time left on the clock to beat North Carolina.
The two teams were in a shootout for three quarters, with Patrick
Pinkney throwing three touchdown passes for East Carolina and UNC
getting a huge day from Brandon Tate, but Hartman's field goal were
the only points in the fourth. Pinkney connected with Chris Johnson
on touchdown passes from 78 and 24 yards out, and Johnson added a
four-yard touchdown run, while Tate caught touchdown passes from 39
and 51 yards and returned a punt 58 yards for a score.

The defense is going to be
a work in progress, as East Carolina exposed with the passing game,
but under Butch Davis, that'll quickly come around. The big concern
was the offense, and it appears to be in good hands as T.J. Yates
had a terrific game, and Brandon Tate was all but unstoppable on his
two touchdown catches and a punt return for a score. UNC needs to be
explosive to make up for a lack of running game, and now the defense
has to start coming up with more stops. That shouldn't be a problem
against Virginia.

North Carolina 37 ... James Madison 14
North Carolina jumped all over James Madison early on with a
21-0 first quarter lead, highlighted b a 65-yard touchdown pass from
T.J. Yates to Brook Foster on the opening drive. Foster caught an
eight-yard touchdown pass and Anthony Elzy ran for two short scores
in the easy with. JMU managed just 249 yards of total offense and
only got into the end zone on a four-yard L.C. Baker catch in the

The Tar Heels got up so quickly on
James Madison that it seemed like the team went on autopilot. The
running game had to show more than it was able to, only netting 100
yards, but T.J. Yates did a great job of opening things up through
the air. He needs to do more on third downs, and he needs more help
from the running game, but those things should hopefully come over
the course of the season if the defense gives the O chances to work,
like it did against JMU. Next week will be a good test against a
strong East Carolina defensive line.
Sept. 1 – James Madison
Sept. 8 – at East Carolina
Offense: Skip Holtz likes to spread the field out and turn his
quarterback loose, but with the battery of James Pinkney and Aundrae
Allison gone, the Pirates will put more emphasis on the ground game.
That means extra carries this year for versatile senior Chris Johnson
and his young understudies, Dominique Lindsay and Norman Whitley. While
strong-armed sophomore Rob Kass will replace Pinkney behind center, an
adequate replacement for Allison will be much tougher to find. Look for
the quarterback to utilize a group of tight ends that has the potential
to be as good as any in Conference USA. For ECU to improve on last
season's weak offensive output, the veteran line needs to give Kass an
extra second or two in the pocket and create more daylight for the
Defense: If the Pirate defensive line doesn't outright dominate
at times this season, heads will roll at the end of the year. There's
way too much talent and depth on this unit for it not to make a quantum
leap from 2006. Junior end Marcus Hands, in particular, has the size
and quickness to be special after underachieving last fall. Penetration
up front figures to help a secondary that's easily the weak link of this
defense. Three starters, including both corners, need to be replaced
from a group that was one of the underrated team strengths for the past
two seasons.
Sept. 15 - Virginia
Offense: Until the receivers prove they can play, it'll be run,
run and run some more with mobile quarterback Jameel Sewell and decent
backs Cedric Peerman and Keith Payne working behind a much improved,
veteran line. The tight ends are excellent, but the receiving corps
suffered a nasty blow when it lost leading receiver Kevin Ogletree with
a knee injury. Now it'll be up to Sewell, a rising star but an
inconsistent passer, to make everyone around him better. Don't expect
anything flashy for a while.
Defense: Somewhat quietly, the Virginia defense had a terrific
year finishing 17th in the nation in total D and 22nd in scoring D. It
should be even better with ten starters returning, including top linemen
Chris Long and Jeffrey Fitzgerald to anchor the front three. All four
starting linebackers are back to form a solid group that doesn't make a
whole bunch of mistakes. This might not be the most athletic defense,
but it's aggressive and is always around the ball.
Sept. 22 – at South Florida
Offense: This is Matt Grothe's offense, but unlike last season,
he shouldn't have to do everything short of crafting the weekly gameplan
in order to make the unit hum. Although he led the offense in passing,
rushing and scoring, the program realizes it needs to protect its most
important commodity and give him more support. Can freshman Mike Ford
live up to the hype? Plenty is expected from a back that should ignite
a rushing attack that did little in 2006 when Grothe wasn't slithering
through opposing defenses. Originally headed to Tuscaloosa, he's the
highest-profile recruit to ever sign with USF. The Bull receivers are a
dynamic bunch that's loaded with size, speed and underachievers that
need to get their act together.
Defense: Like all teams from Florida, the USF defense pursues
well and is built on speed. Wally Burnham's unit is well-coached,
prevents the big play and is vastly underappreciated and unnoticed on a
national level. That could change if the Bulls crack the top 10 in
total defense in 2007, a distinct possibility. Next level corners Trae
Williams and Mike Jenkins allow the defense to sell out on occasion, and
the front four, led by sophomore rush end George Selvie, returns seven
linemen that started games in 2006. Importing defensive line coach Dan
McCarney and linebacker Tyrone McKenzie from Iowa State were coups
that'll pay immediate dividends.
Sept. 29 – at Virginia Tech
Offense: Can Tech win a national title with a mediocre
offense? It was 99th in the nation in total offense, but it did a great
job of taking advantage of all the breaks generated by the defense.
Eight starters return, led by ACC Player of the Year candidate Branden
Ore at running back, but he needs the line to be healthy for a full
season, and better. The passing game has good pieces, but it has to be
far more consistent considering there are four talented senior receivers
returning. Quarterback Sean Glennon had a good off-season, and now it
has to translate into better production.
Defense: For two years in a row, Tech has led the nation in total
defense, and last season, was number one in scoring defense allowing 11
points per game. There's no reason the D can't be even better with eight
starters returning led by the 1-2 linebacking punch of Vince Hall and
Xavier Adibi. Corner Brandon Flowers is emerging as one of the best in
the nation, "Macho" Harris is a good defender on the other side, and the
line is loaded with size, quickness, depth and experience. As good as
things were, and will be, it's not like the D played a who's who of
offensive machines, so the overall numbers might be a tad bit overrated,
but make no mistake about it; this is a special defense.
Oct. 6 - Miami
Offense: After a miserably inconsistent year finishing 87th in
the nation in both total and scoring offense, the attack needs to play
up to its talent level. The backfield will be amazing with Javarris
James and true freshman Graig Cooper each good enough star for just
about anyone in the country. The line has potential with two good
tackles in Jason Fox and Reggie Youngblood to work around, and now the
passing game has to be far better. The Kyle Wright vs. Kirby Freeman
quarterback battle will be an ongoing debate, and the receiving corps
has to step up and be better. Lance Leggett emerging as a true number
one target would be a start.
Defense: The defense finished seventh in the nation last year
despite not getting any help from the offense. The starting 11 should be
good enough to shut everyone down, but there will be early concerns with
the depth on the defensive line and the secondary. Safety Kenny Phillips
and end Calais Campbell might be the two best defensive players in the
nation, and everything will revolve around them; they must stay
healthy. The linebacking corps might not have name stars, but it'll be a
rock against the run with a good rotation of talents.
Oct. 13 - South Carolina
Offense: This should be a balanced attack that'll rely on the
running game early on and the steady play of emerging QB Blake Mitchell
to be more explosive and consistent than last year. The big concern is a
line that was overmatched throughout the spring as it tried to break in
three new starters. Getting a push for the nice 1-2 rushing punch of
Cory Boyd and Mike Davis is job one, while Mitchell will have to make
quick decisions early on until things start to come together. The loss
of Sidney Rice won't be a killer if Kenny McKinley handles the number
one job like he's expected to and a good number two emerges.
Defense: The defense has plenty of returning experience, depth,
young options waiting to step up and shine, and good stars to build
around. MLB Jasper Brinkley is one of the best in America, and now his
twin brother will move from defensive end to outside linebacker to help
out (though he might end up back on the line). The secondary is emerging
as a potential force if everyone starters to play consistently. There's
speed at corner, depth and experience at safety, and an emerging star in
SS Emanuel Cook. The defensive line has to be far better against the
run, and it should be with the return of Marque Hall from injury and the
emergence of freshman Ladi Ajiboye.
Oct. 27 – at Wake Forest
Offense: Wake Forest will never come out and outbomb anyone, but
it'll run effectively behind a veteran offensive line, get the timely
passes when needed, and won't screw up. The attack only averaged 21.6
points per game and was 96th in the nation in offense, but there were
only 15 giveaways. QB Riley Skinner is back after helping the offense
lead the ACC in passing efficiency, but everything will revolve around
the ground game with several good runners and four starters returning up
front. The receiving corps will be an issue needing to move 2006's
leading rusher, Kenneth Moore, back to his natural receiver position.
Defense: The D could be even better than last year when it was
solid at bending but rarely breaking finishing 12th in the nation in
scoring defense. There's not a Jon Abbate to rely on, and a few key
defensive backs need to be replaced, but there's plenty of experience
everywhere and lots of speed and athleticism in the secondary. There
needs to be more pass rush from the defensive front and there could
stand to be fewer big plays allowed against the pass, but the overall
production should be solid.
Nov. 3 - Maryland
Offense: It's all there for the Terps to be steady, explosive and
very, very productive as long as everyone plays as well as they should.
This will be one of the four best offenses in the league as long as
injuries don't strike up front. The line is full of veterans and should
be a rock, but there's no depth. The receiving corps might be the
fastest in the ACC and Lance Ball and Keon Lattimore form a tremendous
1-2 rushing punch. It's all there for a big season, but that's what
everyone said last year and the Terps were merely average.
Defense: The defense didn't exactly work last season, but it didn't
seem to matter. No one stopped the run, the secondary was average, there
weren't enough takeaways, and the 3-4 that was supposed to generate a
serious pass rush wasn't even close. The Terps still won nine games
helped be the defense coming through when it absolutely had to. This
year's group won't be so fortunate and has to be better. The defensive
line should be better with end Jeremy Navarre and tackle Dre Moore good
enough to hope for All-ACC honors. Erin Henderson leads an athletic
linebacking corps that needs experience, but should be good in time. The
secondary is a concern, especially the corners hoping for Isaiah Gardner
to become a shut-down defender after returning from a shoulder injury.
Nov. 10 – at NC State
Offense: This won't be a bombs away attack under Dana
Bible, but it could be with a big, fast, experienced receiving corps
that should be able to spread the field. The trio of running backs,
Toney Baker, Andre Brown and Jamelle Eugene, should be a major plus, but
the line has to be far better and needs to replace the starting tackles.
It'll be a three-man race for the starting quarterback job between
Daniel Evans, Nebraska transfer Harrison Beck, and Justin Burke, with
the one of them needing to be able to move the offense consistently,
something that wasn't done this spring. This will be a running offense
that will eventually grow into a 50/50 balance.
Defense: This will be a solid defense, but it won't be
spectacular. It could be fantastic in 2008 when all the promising young
prospects are ready to shine, but for now, this will be a good, sound D
that should be far more consistent than last year. Demario Pressley and
Martrel Brown lead a strong line that should be the strength, while
three senior linebackers will keep the mistakes to a minimum. The
secondary has to come up with more big plays after helping the Pack pick
off just seven passes.
Nov. 17 – at Georgia Tech
Offense: Is it possible an offense can lose the offensive
coordinator, a sure-fire NFL superstar and a four-year starting
quarterback and be better? Absolutely. Calvin Johnson's departure will
sting, but the passing game should be even better with Taylor Bennett
(or any one of a slew of terrific prospects) taking over for Reggie
Ball. Patrick Nix left to take over the Miami offense, but John Bond is
a veteran who did a good job with the Northern Illinois program for the
last three years. James Johnson will be a decent number one target, and
now someone else has to quickly emerge to take the heat off and give
Bennett more options. Tashard Choice is an All-ACC caliber back leading
a deep and talented group of runners working behind a fantastic line
loaded with experience and depth.
Defense: The defense had two lousy games against Clemson and West
Virginia and was solid against everyone else. With just about everyone
returning, expect another great year holding almost everyone to under
300 yards and around 20 points. The defensive line will be one of the
team's strengths with one of the best groups of ends in America. MLB
Philip Wheeler deserves All-America attention while the safety tandem of
Jamal Lewis and Djay Jones will be one of the ACC's best. The corners
are a bit suspect and the proven linebacker depth is a bit thin, but
those aren't glaring problems.
Nov. 24 - Duke
Offense: Eleven starters return to an offense that lived
through the growing pains of a youth movement in an attempt to take a
giant leap forward. New offensive coordinator Peter Vaas, who comes over
from Notre Dame, should help make quarterback Thaddeus Lewis more
consistent. Helping the overall cause even more is a veteran line that
needs to be far better after doing next to nothing well throughout last
year. It'll be tailback by committee with several different options to
see carries, while the overall strength will be at receiver with several
young, big, good-looking targets for Lewis to use to push the ball
Defense: The defense is still not going to be a rock, but there's
promise with several good young players to revolve around. Top prospects
Vince Oghobaase and Ayanga Okpokowuruk are rising stars on the line,
while Patrick Bailey is a playmaker who'll be one of the ACC's better
pass rushers. Michael Tauiliili is a playmaker at middle linebacker, but
the outside linebackers are question marks. Safeties Chris Davis and
Adrian Aye-Darko are good, and they'll need to be with major concerns at

O.C. surfing writer Shawn Price, who once upon a time was instrumental in developing our fleeting Register Soundstage series (he kicked it off with a chat and performance from Donavon Frankenreiter), returns to review one of Jersey's finest ...
Guitar bands will always be essential to rock 'n' roll. That's why the Smithereens still stalk the night clubs of America.
Even if at times during Friday's solid if unspectacular two-hour show at the Galaxy Theater in Santa Ana the band seemed past their prime, the power chords packed in their 24 selections had already become immortal.
This is, don't forget, a working class band. And this is what a working class band does -- plays live, night after night, each time trying to find another connection to the crowd, minus light shows, Jumbotrons or heavy exposure from MTV, let alone minor reminders from a sympathetic Southern California radio station like, say, The Sound/100.3 FM. The Smithereens, led by singer-songwriter Pat DiNizio, certainly achieved an alliance with the audience this night, albeit in somewhat muted ways.
From the opening ram-rod riff of "Behind the Wall of Sleep," the band relied heavily on hits from its arguably most popular albums, Green Thoughts (1988) and 11 (1989), though sprinkles of earlier work ("Time and Time Again") and a medley of Who tunes from their new Tommy tribute offered some balance. Closing with "The Batman Theme" was an odd choice, yet as with releasing a song-for-song remake of Pete Townshend's first rock opera, it also was a reminder of the band's pop-art and mod interests.
Though the almost original Smithereens -- also including guitarist Jim Babjek, drummer Dennis Diken and bassist Severo Jornacion (who replaced Mike Mesaros) -- still satisfy with hits alone, their set revealed very little hint of new work to come. It was at times troubling to see the band so intent on looking back.
A writer as well-schooled in the three-chord power-pop of the '60s as Dinizio should feel comfortable allowing his roots to show without ever being stopped by them.

Wow, HBO has some confidence in its premiere Mormon family, the Henricksons. Only a few episodes into its third season, HBO has picked up Big Love for a fourth season!
Check out what the ecstatic Big Love creators, Will SCheffer and Mark V. Olsen told E! Online:
We couldn't be happier. We love making this show and we love our collaboration with HBO. They've truly been maligned in the press this year. If you show me a better network to work with I'll eat our DVD collections.
Mark and I want to tell our fans we're still truly sorry for the long wait last year. We promise two things. As season three continues they'll forget about the time they waited and get caught up in our best season ever. And we also swear we won't make them wait as long next year. Mark and I insist on making a better show each year, so we won't ever stint on quality, but we're trying to be better faster.

Re: MMA guys using non sports specific training IE Combat ropes
This is something that has hit my mind especially after watching the bulid up to Bute v Froch. Bute seemed to spend almost as much time doing new "scientific" S&C as he did "traditional" old skool fight training. He got wiped out. A similar thing happen with other big subscribers to the new skool way of doing things ie Khan, Berto etc etc.
I'm a fan of new advances in combat sports. I subsrcibe to fighting fit magazine and read it cover to cover like a kid with a comic book, but I'm old skool in my approach, I believe the majority of training a fighter does should be fight specifc. Nowhere is that more apparant than in Thailand were other than a few runs, sprints, pull ups pushups etc and not S&C guru insight and these guys still kick everyones **** with ease.....
I'm sure new skool S&C ideas do of course benefit many fighters, I just question the amount of time and importance given over to such training techniques to the detrement of very specific combat training. S&C is a huge industry these days from equipment to dedicated trainers and notice how many of these gurus come form non fight backgrounds but they keep telling us what we need to change? Fine but to the detriment of what? Cos if you add something new what is getting pushed down the list?
The advances in nutrition for the fight game is a whole other thing which I rate very highly and can't stress enough to any young fighters just how important it is to eat right. Nutrition is absolutely essential to every fighter out there.

It happened years ago in Calgary, Alberta, where the National Conference of Editorial Writers was holding its convention that year. Was it in the '70s or '80s, and does it matter? Much has changed since then, and not for the better. The organization started as a simple meeting of a few editorial writers to shoot the bull, but by now it's cast its web wider and vaguer, becoming the Association of Opinion Journalists, whatever "opinion journalists" are. Anybody who ever started his own blog or wrote a letter to the editor?
The disappearance of the old-fashioned editorial writer has pretty much paralleled the disappearance of the old-fashioned newspaper. It is not a change for the better.
Our annual meetings ought to be as personal and idiosyncratic as any other anarchists' convention. Ideally, they would be as gossipy as tea in the servants' quarters after our masters have turned in for the night and left the household in peace.
But even by the time we met at Calgary, editorial writers were putting on airs -- just as the once baronial publishers who used to own American newspapers, generation after generation, were losing theirs. Once great newspapers began going public or just going under, their editorial voices growing blander and blander till they weren't there at all.
We should have known what was going to happen once we started following parliamentary procedure, holding plenary sessions and adopting sonorous resolutions by the ream. But we just sat there quietly, listening to professors of journalism address the State of the Profession -- as if our ragtag bunch were one, and as much a conspiracy against the laity as any other.
That year at Calgary, one solemn resolution proposed that we stop talking to the CIA, since a number of journalists abroad had been assassinated on the pretext that we were all CIA agents, capitalist spies, tools of imperialism and, well, you know the rest. As if the killers were so lacking in imagination they couldn't come up with some other excuse to do away with us if they hadn't invented this one.
So there we were in all too solemn convention assembled, First Amendment or no, debating whether we should gag ourselves. I dissented, being an American, and unaccustomed to being told whom I could talk to or not talk to. Memory grows furtive, but I believe the resolution was defeated. That it was ever considered was disgraceful enough.
These strange days, the National Security Agency has succeeded the CIA as the villain du jour in the more respectable reaches of the Fourth Estate.

My mother used to annoy me by crooning the Rootie Kazootie song (she was never a smooth singer) but it stuck with me and over the years, bits and pieces of Rootie Kazootie history floated slowly into my consciousness. I feel that all the original TV shows from the 50's both good & bad should be preserved as these were an important hallmark of history. These were some of the first televised images ever seen and would probably have the same impact as discovering life on other worlds to some. We take it for granted now, but TV was revolutionary in the 50's. It was a HUGE leap forward from the telephone. It truly saddens me that so many of these shows are lost due to poor preservation at the time, but even sadder is the lack of interest in corporations to try to market & preserve our rich history because they feel so much falls short of todays standards in entertainment or general lack of interest. I for one feel a great sense of personal loss.

Oklahoma: My Firsthand Experience
This past week, I had the opportunity to participate in the Oklahoma tornado response at FEMA's National Response Coordination Center. During my time there, I witnessed firsthand the dedication, hard work and seriousness of our federal emergency management agencies. This includes not only the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), but also the National Response Framework Emergency Support Functions Annexes of more than 15 federal agencies. The cooperation I witnessed among these agencies showed true boundless collaboration.
I was initially brought to the response center to provide onsite support for the National Level Exercise Ardent Sentry, an emergency preparedness exercise that equips the military in preparation for defense support to civil authorities. As I arrived, I planned and prepared to test new business processes and WebEOC boards relating to the exercise, but things drastically changed within 24 hours.
As we gained knowledge about the tornadoes, the exercise was canceled and FEMA went into a level II activation. FEMA Region VI Watch and FEMA's National Watch Center immediately began creating incidents in WebEOC and we were fully operational within minutes.
I was impressed by the level of coordination and information sharing among FEMA Headquarters, FEMA Region VI, Oklahoma State Emergency Operation Center and other federal agencies, as well as the volunteer organizations. It truly was a commendable level of inter-agency cooperation. One of the most gratifying parts of supporting these agencies is knowing the importance of WebEOC in aiding the rapid and successful response to the incidents. Some of the WebEOC features used included the Sign-In/Out Roster, Activity Log, Significant Events, Requests for Information, Ops Tempo, National Situation Report, National Support Plan Tracker and Resource Tracking.
Since I have been deployed to many major tragic events, such as Superstorm Sandy, the Haiti earthquakes, Hurricane Katrina, the 9/11 attacks and Hurricane Isaac, I truly believed I had seen it all. However, witnessing the devastation and loss of life that occurred after one of the most powerful tornadoes that ripped through the Oklahoma area was just as heart-wrenching. My heart and prayers continue to go out to the families and communities impacted.

eBay made a mistake. eBay should pay for it -- not affiliates.
Bad affiliate programs shouldn't be bad economics for those not responsible for them. But eBay is making others pay for its mistakes.
eBay's affiliate program was launched with good intentions. It would pay affiliates that referred visitors who registered and/or bid on eBay.
The program could have worked if eBay had hand-picked affiliate commerce sites with good customers. Instead, the online auction site made the fatal mistake of opening the program to every affiliate everywhere.
No Way It Could Have Worked
Countless affiliate programs are fully capable of trafficking millions of people to anyone's site, given the right (read: wrong) reason: the incentivized per-click game. It's a recipe for failure for all but a few savvy marketers (who all work in porn, anyway).
eBay recently pulled the plug on reward-based affiliates, whose referrals were generating tens of thousands of dollars in bids per month. This because visitors some of the affiliates sent over were low-balling bids on eBay to earn incentive points for each bid. They had no intention of purchasing anything.
Affiliates, of course, knew this would happen. Offer something for nothing, and there are always takers. For a short while, visitors sent from these affiliates' sites turned parts of eBay into a free-for-all. They bid with no intention of paying. They raced in and out of auctions, looked at everything, and placed even more bids.
More bids, more points. That's what happens. Ask any affiliate consultant about CPC programs, and you'll hear laughter. This is no place for rookies or a naive belief in hard-working affiliates diligently qualifying customers. It's the real world. Incentivized affiliates did what they do. They sent tons of users who take tons of actions for tons of points. Period.
When eBay figured out what was going on, the company notified some reward-based affiliates they wouldn't be paid commissions for their traffic.
If programs make their affiliates pay for their own bad decisions, what's the value of their contracts? Nothing in eBay's agreement with affiliates prohibits this practice. Something does now, and eBay is trying to enforce the clause retroactively.
Learn From the Past
eBay didn't understand the most fundamental premise of affiliate marketing: You get the traffic you pay for. In performance marketing, it's your job to build performance into your affiliate program.
Many of eBay's incentivized visitors weren't customers. They were folks rewarded for registering and bidding. The reward (incentive) was points for a CPC and cost-per-action (CPA) program. Anyone who has ever done any research on affiliate programs (or made a few phone calls to ask around) could tell you eBay's program would fail. It's not rocket science, just common sense.
Mix CPC and CPA into an incentivized blend, and you have a recipe for disaster. Should affiliates pay for a program's ignorance? Nope. A company of eBay's stature has little excuse for ignorance.
Extraordinary Delusions and the Mob Mentality
The continuing naiveté of Internet marketers, especially in the affiliate/CPA space, is amazing. Doesn't anyone else remember the MyPoints deluge of unresponsive Internet traffic back in 1999, when dot-com craziness was at its peak? Who could forget the totally insane CPA affiliate programs in 2000, when companies would spend two dollars and more for a name and more-likely-than-not fraudulent address?
It was the game of leads, and it burnt out quickly. CPC is a landmine. So is CPA, if not treated like a true reseller channel.
Sift among the masses for qualified customers. That's your job as the affiliate program owner. The affiliate's job is to get people to take action, hopefully in a way that works for both of you. Often, it doesn't because your interests and their interests differ. You each have different definitions of success.
Reward a user for taking action with no economic value (e.g., registering or bidding for points), and you get nothing in return. They're loyal to the reward.
eBay should pay its incentivized affiliates what it owes. Next program, it should do its due diligence and not open the program to problems easily avoided.
The fault lies not in its affiliates, but in itself. Paying for your own mistakes pays in the long run.

If you select this option, WyzAnt will ask interested tutors to contact you by email if they are able to help. A maximum of five different tutors will email you and none of your personal information, including your email address, will be released.
Irvine Valley College, Saddleback College (Mathematics)
Thank you for taking a look at my profile! My name is Whitney and I am primarily a math tutor although I also tutor the drums. I have a great passion for math and feel that I am a natural born teacher; my patience, good communication and aptitude for math have brought me success as a freelance math tutor. Through my four years of tutoring experience, I've established a natural 7-step process that allows me to accurately pinpoint where students struggle and exactly what they need to be successful. This process also builds a firm foundation that increases recall, eases testing panic and supports future learning (7-step process can be provided upon request!).
A little bit about me: I am a 23-year-old mathematics major, still in college, with a 3.8 GPA. I have been tutoring math for over four years and during this time I have tutored students ages ten to sixty in all levels and topics of math. I have also had the experience of tutoring 'less than enthused' children as well as the experience of being a nanny for over a year, so I am very good with children. I tutor all levels of math, up to, but not including, calculus. I am a female math tutor for female students of ALL ages and ALL math levels. I am kind, friendly, and looking to work with you! Thank you for taking a look at my profile! My name is Whitney and I am primarily a math tutor although I also tutor the drums. I have a great passion for math and feel that I am a natural born teacher; my patience, good communication and
Whitney has been a godsend for my daughter who was struggling in geometry. She is very patient and extremely flexible.
Whitney has been working on Algebra 2 with my daughter, and my daughter really enjoys working with her. She explains things well and is very patient. She explains things in a way my daughter understands.
Whitney is extremely flexible on scheduling, we have set up Skype with her. She is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. My daughter relates well to her because she is a college student, not a much older person.
Whitney has helped make the most amazing progress with my daughter. She's patient, and makes learning math fun again. My daughter has gone from "D" to "A". I would highly recommend her.
Whitney is very professional, always prompt, easy to talk to (and to understand) and has been extremely helpful in getting my daughter through her tougher Geometry assignments and preparing her for tests. Previously my daughter was scheduling 2-hour sessions with other tutors from different agencies, but my daughter has never needed more than a 1-hour session with Whitney because she's so thorough and so knowledgeable!
Whitney has helped my daughter with Algebra 2 tremendously. We drive a little out of our way to have a session with her. She is knowledgeable and can explain topics easily so my daughter benefits greatly from a 1 hour session. Thank you!
Whitney has been helping my daughter with Geometry and now with Algebra 2. She has been a great help in helping her understand important concepts and problem solving. I would highly recommend Whitney to anyone. My daughter loves her teaching style and enjoys her time with Whitney.

Welcome pack on arrival
The Midi-Pyrénées region
Known for its green rolling landscape and rivers flowing through spectacular gorges, the area will suit anyone who loves walking, cycling, fishing, horseriding and nature in general. There are fortified villages (bastides) and Cathar castles; bustling markets and local fetes or just simply relax and enjoy a glass of wine.
For art lovers, visit Albi and the Toulouse Lautrec Museum.
Moissac - Abbaye St Pierre and jazz festival in July, classical concerts in July and August.
Cahors - Blues Festival in July
Millau - take a trip across the stunning Millau bridge or visit the Roquefort caves.
Saint Projet
Situated in the secluded hamlet of Mas De Guinet, La Petite Grange is the perfect place for exploring the beautful unspoilt countryside.
Just a short cycle along gently winding lanes is St Projet which is home to a 13th Century chateau which boasts quite a story! The village hosts some lively fetes in the summer - the Giant Omelette and Marché Gourmand take place in July and August. Not to be outdone, nearby Parisot has the Giant Paella evening and impressive fireworks.
The rivers Lot and Aveyron are only half an hour's drive away, where canoes can be hired. There are several beautiful villages within easy reach. Our local restaurant is 5 minutes drive and the nearest supermarket is a 15 minute drive.
The local markets are not to be missed - St Antonin has a very lively market on Sunday mornings; Villefranche de Rouergue's market is on Thursday mornings but our favourite is Limogne on Sunday morning which is a quieter farmer's market.
The bastide village of Cordes-sur-Ciel is well worth a visit - on the way you drive through some of the Gaillac wine area, so why not stop at one of the vineyards for a 'degustation'. Try picturesque Najac with its Cathar castle, or St Cirq Lapopie overlooking the river Lot.
Our favourite restaurant, La Grange du Cros, has a lovely ambience and is very popular - don't forget to book!

"great if you want a bit of piece and quiet"
My girlfriend and I stayed at Graham and Marion's cottage just outside Saint Projet for a week in early August, the cottage itself exceeded expectations with a clean bathroom, fully kitted kitchen and a gorgous loft bedroom with exposed rafters and a good finish. The cottage also had wifi internet and UK sky (which was handy considering the Olympics were on) and a large swimming pool in the garden for cooling off in the hot afternoons. The hosts are lovely and make sure the kitchen is stocked with the essentials, tea, coffee, salt pepper, oil, herbs, milk on arrival and are there for recommendations. Our favorite local place was Saint Cirq Lapopie however the Milau viaduct and Galliac wine region are all nearby for day trips and the local markets were also a winner. The only item we struggled on were there aren't any local restaurants in easy walking distance but if you don't have a problem having a designated driver then you have everything you need around you.

"Great place for couples to stay"
Really enjoyed our stay - excellent hosts with good attention to detail to aid a comfortable holiday. The pool was a great benefit when the spring weather was kind. A quiet location which provided a good base for discovering all the local sites and attractions.

"Perfect peaceful getaway!"
What a superb gite for 2 people! All home comforts provided, and nothing was too much trouble for our hosts Marion and Graham. The setting is idyllic and soooooooo peaceful :) A lovely pool to cool off when the sun got too hot, bikes to ride when we fancied a trip out but didn't feel like taking the car and lots of good walks in the area. There are quaint, very 'French' towns nearby, but most of the time we were quite happy just to to chill out, read a book, and soak up the lovely surroundings. A must!!

It's Equal Pay Day, a time to remember those 600 extra hours that women work each year to catch up with male wages. For female teens exploitation at work is advancing, as GOP lawmakers in several states try to relax child labor laws.
And it doesn't appear that they know much about the risks that young women run in the workplace.
Professor Susan Fineran, a colleague here at the University of Southern Maine's Women and Gender Studies Program, shared her research just this week at a Department of Education conference in Washington, D.C. She found that 35 percent of students surveyed reported that they'd been sexually harassed on the job during the school year.
Letting young women work one more hour at night is almost sure to widen that sexual-harassment window. Maybe that's the desired result? Why else would Missouri Republicans advocate letting children under 16 work in any capacity in a motel, resort or hotel where sleeping accommodations are furnished? Currently such work is tightly regulated.
Missouri parents should be worried for other reasons too. The new budget just passed by the Republican-controlled House eliminates investigators who examine child labor complaints. In 2010, those investigators discovered more than $450,000 in violations of Missouri's child labor laws and recovered more than $700,000 for workers from minimum and prevailing wage violations.
These fines are a tiny fraction of actual wage and hour violations. Nationally and in every state child labor laws are barely enforced. In North Carolina, for example, of employed teens nearly 37 percent reported a violation of the hazardous occupations orders, such as prohibited jobs or use of equipment, 40 percent reported a work permit violation, 15 percent reported working off the clock and 11 percent reported working past the latest hour allowed on a school night, according to the American Journal of Public Health study.
No wonder hundreds of thousands of 16- and 17-year-old workers are injured on the job every year. In 2006, 70 teens died from on-the-job injuries.
In spite of all this, a trio of conservative groups (Generation Joshua Project, the Home School Legal Defense Association and Parentsrights.org) oppose the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child.
What could be next? How about shortening the school day and using school buses to drop teens at their sub-minimum wage jobs?

Missouri's attempt to deregulate children's hospitality work is appalling. As a worker in the field, I am quite aware of the number of non-American-owned motels which are hotbeds of transactional sex, methamphetamine and crack sales, and meth manufacture. The Indians who run them hail from a culture which marries their daughters off well before puberty, murders brides for dowries, and often treats cockroaches better than women. Whether or not these places enable child sex, they are unsafe for teen labor. Even mainstream motels may harbor bedbugs, outcall services, and tenants with no respect for workers. This bill should die now, and permanently.
Submitted by Janet (4 years ago)
To me, what is most important about this article is that this is a continuing war of men against women. Women's and teens' accomplishments in workplace rights can never be considered permanent, and women must always be ready to refight over workplace rights for ourselves and for our children.

Too small for me!
By Crafty Sue
from Toronto
I ordered this bracelet the last time this company was in at TSC. What a mistake! I should have known better as no sizing was given. The bracelet was too small for me and would not go over my hand so it was returned.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Very pretty but not showy on just skin
By H.E.
from Penticton, B.C.
When I received this bracelet I was not sure I would keep it as it didn't show up that well on just skin. I have many pieces from this line but nothing in the line of a bracelet. I decided to keep it and have worn it several times but I think I need to get the black one so that the white one will show off better - does that make sense? So Ken, please give us a good price next time you are at TSC so that I can consider buying the dark one as well. Thanks. Love the stuff!!!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
I bought two of these bangles, STUNNING.

Very disappointed
By Beautiful British Columbia
from Castlegar
I bought this bangle based on the review and commentary on TSC. I received it yesterday, and I was not happy so I am sending it back. I found it dull, and very cheap looking. I also think it is very overpriced.

flashes of clour
By yxe shopper
from saskatoon
I bought this bangle in both the clear and the black options and love them both. I hope the black comes back so i can pick up a 3rd one and have a black one on each side of the clear bangle. I think it is so clever to showcase the beauty of ammolite in this way. Kudos to the designer.

lovely bangle
By Irene
from Mississauga On
Ordered the bangle in white and have worn it almost every day. The floating resin in the ammolite has a lot of colour. I missed out on the black and would like to see it come back at a sale price.
( 6 of 9 customers found this review helpful)
By Cat
from Sault, Ontario
All I can say, is WOW!! I love the black, with flecks of colour. Matches the watch, PERFECTLY!It's like the stained glass look on watch. Love it in the black. Colours are so reflective under light. It's very MAGICAL & Mesmerizing/Modern! I'd love more things like this, but it must be tedious. Love the fit.. not perfectly round, so you can move it up your arm & it stays there. This is one of the nicest ammolite pieces, I've seen. Bravo to the designer. SPECTACULAR! Please keep these coming.I'd love to see a many, 'smaller stones' bracelet. I can live without the topaz, to keep price down. Actually, I'd PREFER it; more art deco. I only buy 'faceted'; more colour play.. LOVE! I also bought the Chinese looking pendant; huge faceted rectangular stone & swirls of silver. I tried 'freeform' & 'protector' first. Nice.. BUT no facets/colour. This one is SPECTACULAR & can be seen a mile away.. WOW! Huge ammolite! My favourite pendant, by far. I dislike 'dainty'.I'll wear it, ONLY now! Ammolite makes me 'happy'!LOVE looking at all my rings :)Get this bracelet.. It's a MUST.

Fresh new way to wear ammolite!
By Lila
from Coquitlam
I purchased these bangles in both the black and clear. I love wearing them each on their own and together. The ammolite in the black bangle is very bold and dynamic, while the ammolite in the clear bangle has a very ethereal feel . Light and airy. They are gorgeous alone and together. So happy I was able to pick these up after they were originally sold out. A really fresh new way to wear this amazing gemstone!
( 9 of 10 customers found this review helpful)
Love this bangle!
By JAN
from CALGARY
I love that the pieces of ammolite appear to float in the resin and that the colours flicker and flash while you're wearing it. I layer it up with other bracelets and it is very comfortable to wear.I got the clear ammolite bangle. It goes so well with my silver and gold ammolite pieces because there is no metal - great idea Korite! I would also be interested in rings made in this way. I'm thinking large, free-form, fun and fanciful!
