College Hockey:Spartans Top Falcons in OT
Freshman Krug Nets Game Winner
BOWLING GREEN, Ohio — Torey Krug picked a good time to score his first collegiate goal.
The Spartan freshman took a pass from Derek Grant 35 seconds into overtime and found the back of the net to give No. 14 Michigan State a 3-2 come-from-behind victory over the Bowling Green Falcons at the BG Ice Arena on Friday night.
Its funny, but I wasnt even going to play him in overtime, said MSU coach Rick Comley. But he jumped into the rush, the puck came to him, and he put it away.
Any time you get the monkey off your back, it feels good, said Krug of the game winner. It was kind of sitting in the back of my mind, and something Ill always remember.
The defenseman from Livonia, Mich., took a drop pass from Grant and beat BGs Nick Eno top-shelf on a wrister from between the circles to give the Spartans their 11th win of the year.
[Jeff] Petry made a great play moving it up to our forwards, said Krug. It was a great effort by our whole line. Grant made a good play when he heard me busting down the slot, and I had my shot and I buried it.
The sound of the puck hitting the back of the net was almost as loud as the big sigh of relief coming from the Spartan bench.
Bowling Green shut down the Spartan offense for the first 48 minutes of the game, staking themselves to a 2-0 lead, before MSU finally began to awaken.
Zach Josepher took the goose egg off the scoreboard for MSU on a power-play goal, driving a shot through a screen at 7:58 of the third period.
A 5-on-3 penalty kill by the Falcons in the middle of the stanza seemed to put momentum back on the skates of the Brown and Orange, but MSU regained that lost momentum on a rebound goal from the teams leading scorer, Corey Tropp, at 14:58. The goal came off the shot of Grant, who picked up assists on the final two goals of the evening.
That tally sent the game to overtime and set up the winner by Krug.
We were fortunate, said Comely. BG played really well. They made it tough to get shots through. We started well, [Bowling Green] came on and played real well, and to be honest with you, probably deserved a little bit better fate.
Goals havent been coming easy for us lately, so well take them any way we can get them right now, said Tropp.
For the Falcons, tonights loss was disappointing, to say the least.
We made some mental mistakes, said BG coach Dennis Williams. We were caught down low. Their D did a good job of jumping into the rush, and it cost us.
Its tough to go in to the locker room and see them. They worked hard. Weve got to go to bed tonight, learn from this tomorrow morning on video, and put it to rest.
Bowling Green took a 1-0 lead at 14:53 of the opening period thanks to a defensive breakdown behind the Michigan State net. A Spartan defender, attempting to clear the zone, threw the puck out to Wade Finegan at the top of the circle. The junior one-timed the shot past the stick of Bobby Jarosz for his first goal of the year.
The Falcons increased their lead to two goals at 6:54 of the second period. Tomas Petruska, skating hard for the puck along the sidewall, threw a shot toward the Spartan net, where Nathan Pageau was waiting to tip the puck in for his third marker of the year.
We stress driving to the net. It was a great play by Tomas just to get that puck over. Those are the kinds of goals youre going to score just crashing the net.
The Falcons held the lead until Michigan States offense kicked in during the third period.
They worked really hard, said Comley of the Falcons. We jumped them early, but then we didnt score, and they got confidence and they scored. Everybodys better with the lead, for sure.
Jarosz finished the night stopping 29 of the 31 shots he faced. His counterpart, Nick Eno, made 21 of 24 saves.
The Falcons finished the night 1-for-4 on the power play, while Michigan State ended the night 0-for-5 with the man-advantage.
The two team travel to East Lansing tomorrow night for the conclusion of the series.

Unless you own a sandwich shop or a bakery, you probably don't have much need for this Suffolk Two-Sided Chalkboard ($159), but... don't you want one anyway? We kinda do. We want to buy a big bucket of chalk and go to town, decorating each side of this board with designs and the soup du jour. In fact, we'd probably spend more time expressing our artistic talents in writing out "Cream of Broccoli" than we would actually working in the kitchen to make dinner.

Umi Nom Adding Booze in a Few Weeks
Considering that the name means "to drink" in Tagalog, this feels appropriate.
Considering that "uminom" means "to drink" in Tagalog, it's only fitting that King Phojanakong's Bed-Stuy Asian-small-plates spot will soon begin serving beer, wine, and sake. Phojanakong was approved for the license a few weeks ago, and once he gets his papers in order he'll be pouring Filippino and Thai brews, and "a nice local beer," along with red and white wines (hopefully) on tap, and ten to fifteen different sakes, plus sake cocktails. Umi Nom already has a bar space, which you can see in the photo.
Phojanakong tells Grub Street he used to bartend before he opened Umi Nom and its LES sister, Kuma Inn, and he's designing the cocktails himself. So far a mix of sake, palm sugar, Thai basil, and kalamansi lime, "a take on a caiphrinha" has been a hit with the staff, so that'll go on the drinks list, along with other quaffs incorporating ingredients like fresh ginger juice, lemongrass, and whatever other Asian-leaning produce is in season. The chef-owner tells us, "I still want to focus more on the food," rather than have a rollicking bar scene, but we're certain the addition of cocktails and drinks will be a boon in an area with few quality drinkeries. Whether Phojanakong will pursue a booze license for the BYO Kuma Inn remains uncertain: "I'm going to wait and see how everything goes with the Brooklyn one," he tells us. Anyway, "kumainn" just means to eat, so not as much pressure there.

Signing free-agent forward Alexander Semin wasn't a decision Carolina Hurricanes general manager Jim Rutherford made lightly. In fact, he started doing his homework on Semin before the former Washington Capitals forward even became available.
"I remember having a relatively long conversation with [former Capitals coach] Bruce Boudreau at the draft," Rutherford said. "That was the start of us really doing our homework leading to this signing."
All the research done by Rutherford and his staff led to the Hurricanes signing the talented -- but enigmatic -- Semin to a one-year, $7 million contract Thursday.

HIERO provides a scriptable timeline tool for NUKE that conforms edit decision lists and parcels out VFX work to NUKE artists. Close NUKE integration enables shot progress to be viewed in the context of the edit. HIERO's pain-free shot distribution and management also reduces the infrastructure work required to keep a VFX team up and running.
"NUKE is already a powerful compositing tool, but it's missing a component many artists need. HIERO provides the missing link functionality currently dealt with either by expensive tools, in-house scripting or a cumbersome manual process," Matt Plec, senior product designer, says. "HIERO's the bridge tool our customers have been asking for."
HIERO and the rest of The Foundry's products is on exhibit during IBC at the Amsterdam RAI, Hall 7 Booth B21.
HIERO, slated for release in November 2011, will be available on Mac OS X and Linux, with Windows to follow.

The Kentucky Rolex Three-Day Event is held at the Kentucky Horse Park just outside of Lexington and draws over 80,000 spectators every year.
This prestigious annual event attracts the best equestrians from all over the world, including Olympic riders, who come to compete for the $250,000 in prize money.
The Kentucky Rolex is the only 4-star equestrian event held in the US.
The Rolex is highly entertaining and offers a great way to spend a day outside walking the cross-country course or just wandering around the different demonstrations and events. This year's event will be even more exciting with competitions added for the World Equestrian Games. Also, a rider will be attempting to become only the 2nd in history to win the "Grand Slam" prize of $350,000!
Getting There
The Kentucky Horse Park is just a 20-minute drive north of Lexington along Newtown Pike (US922) or can be reached from I-75 by taking the IronWorks Road exit and following the signs.
Schedule for the Kentucky Rolex Event
Dressage - 09:30am to 3:30pm on April 22 and 23rd
Cross Country - 09:30am to 3:30pm on April 24th
Stadium Jumping - 12:00pm to 2:00pm on April 25th
The final awards ceremony will be on Sunday, April 25th at 2:00pm.
Ticket Prices
Prices vary by different day and event. There is no standing or open seating inside the arena for the Dressage and Stadium Jumping so these days are more expensive. For more information see Rolex Tickets.
Some Advice for Budget Travelers
- Arrive early to get a good view along the cross-country course. The most popular areas are usually the starting line, the finish point, and the water jumps.
- Bring a hat and sunscreen, sometimes shade is hard to find along the course.
- There are many food vendors, but they are quite expensive. Be sure to pack your own lunch and water.
- Purchasing a program is well worth the investment and contains good information explaining the different events and riders.
- Traffic can be quite bad on the rural roads heading into Lexington, you may want to take the interstate instead.
- If you don't purchase a ticket for the indoor arena, you can still watch the riders warm up for Dressage in an outdoor ring (free).
The Kentucky Rolex Event is a great way to spend a weekend outside enjoying the beautiful Kentucky Horse Park. I will be covering the event on Examiner.com so be sure to check back for updates!

Oct. 23, 2012
STANFORD, Calif. - Fifth-year senior outside linebacker Chase Thomas has been named a quarterfinalist for the Lott IMPACT Trophy, the first and only college football award to equally recognize athletic performance and the personal character attributes of the player.
Thomas currently leads Stanford with 42 total tackles and 28 solo tackles, and he is tied for the team lead with 9.0 tackles for loss. He has recorded 3.5 sacks from the outside linebacker position, forced a fumble and recovered two more fumbles - one for a defensive touchdown at Notre Dame. Thomas has one interception, which came in overtime of the Cardinal's 54-48 win versus Arizona. Last year a 2011 Sporting News All-American, Thomas has been named a 2012 SI.com Midseason All-American.
Named after Pro Football Hall of Fame member, Ronnie Lott, The Lott Trophy is awarded to college football's Defensive IMPACT Player of the Year. The Lott Trophy is given to the player who exhibits the same characteristics Lott embodied during his distinguished career: Integrity, Maturity, Performance, Academics, Community and Tenacity.
Semifinalists for the award will be announced Nov. 13 and four finalists Nov. 28. The four finalists will be invited to the Dec. 9 Ninth Annual Lott IMPACT Trophy Awards Ceremony in Newport Beach, Calif. This year's keynote speaker will be Dr. Condoleezza Rice.
Thomas has also been named the Lott IMPACT Player of the Week following his performance in Saturday's 21-3 win at Cal in the 115th Big Game. He had 3.0 tackles for loss in the contest, along with a seven-yard sack, a forced fumble and another fumble recovery. Stanford's dominating defense recorded 11 tackles for loss, four sacks and allowed only three points, the lowest since the 2011 season opener versus San Jose State and fewest in a Big Game since 1998.
Thomas led an historic Stanford defensive performance that held the Pac-12's No. 3 rushing offense to three yards rushing, the fewest allowed by a Stanford defense since 2003 (vs. BYU, minus-five) and tied for the seventh best in school history.
No. 19 Stanford (5-2, 3-1) and Thomas next host a Pac-12 North contest at Stanford Stadium this Saturday against Washington State (2-5, 0-4). The 3:15 p.m. kickoff will be broadcast nationally on Pac-12 Networks.
Two regular season home games remain for the Cardinal at Stanford Stadium this season - Oct. 27 versus Washington State and Nov. 10 versus Oregon State - and tickets may be purchased online at GoStanford.com, at the Stanford Stadium ticket office or by calling 800-STANFORD.

Florida Scrub Jay
Look for wading birds along the shores of the lakes and ponds on the Lake Wales Ridge. Nesting pairs of osprey occur at the Lake Placid Scrub tract and the Royce Unit. Bald eagles nest at the Lake Placid Scrub site and the Royce Unit. The threatened Florida scrub-jay is relatively common some of tracts. A 1992-93 survey located 164 scrub jay groups on acquired sites, and 153 additional groups on lands sought for acquisition. Together these lands contain nearly 10 percent of the entire population of jays that still exist in Florida.
Wildlife Spotlight: Sand Skink
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Sand skink
The presence of the rare sand skink (listed as threatened by both Florida and the U.S.) is best detected by the distinct waving trails it leaves in the sand as it "swims" just below the surface. Slender, shiny and light in color, the sand skink reaches a length of about 5 inches and feeds mainly on beetle larvae and termites. The sand skink is endemic to the sandy ridges of central Florida. Its future is threatened by habitat loss from conversion to agricultural and residential uses and from habitat degradation due to fire exclusion. The sand skink appears to do best in areas free of abundant plant roots, with open canopies, scattered shrubby vegetation, and patches of bare sand.

On the night of April 6, 2011, the Wagner College family gathered to bid farewell to their leader, their colleague, their friend: Devorah Lieberman, their departing provost and the next president of the University of La Verne.
Faculty leaders who had stood with her, young professors she had mentored, scholars whose work had led them (with her encouragement) around the world, student leaders whose eyes had been opened by her example, community partners in her efforts to engage with the civic and religious life of Staten Island, trustees who knew what she had done to enhance the scholarly environment of our little hilltop sanctuary — and, above all, her leadership partner, President Richard Guarasci … all came to see off their friend as she set her sights on her next sphere of service to the academy and the community: La Verne, California.
This album is a remembrance of that night.

Ouch, ouch, ouch.
That's what we're feeling right now here at HuffPost Food HQ. By which we mean our beds. The HuffPost offices are closed for the "holiday," so we don't really have any other option. But let's be honest. Even if the office were open, there's literally no way we'd make it in today. We are all supremely hungover, because we all drank far too much champagne, beer, vodka, rye whiskey, reposado tequila, limoncello, Fernet Branca, Amaro Nonino and Hpnotiq Harmonie last night.
If one has to endure blinding agony, though, one may has well endure it in good company. (We learned that from the characters in "Les Miserables" and the group of six stoned bros who sat behind us during "The Hobbit" and managed to laugh all the way through rather than cursing themselves for spending $17 to see it in 48 fps.) And the great thing about being alive in the Web 2.0 era is that you don't have to leave your bed to avoid lonesomeness.
It turns out there's a whole world of hungover people out there, who are ready and eager to complain about the state of their heads and stomachs to the public on Twitter. We've compiled a small sampling of the worst hangovers they Tweeted about for you for your commiseration pleasure. Click through the slideshow below to see them.
Bought a chicken burger, been looking at it 4 the past half an hour #hungover
It feels like someone's Irish step dancing across my forehead #hangover #omg #dying 😖
I feel like 2012 and 2013 got in a fight last night and I tried breaking it up #hungover
Can't stand up. 1. Because I feel like I'm about to spew and 2. Because I have shit loads of glass in my feet! #NYE #dying
All hangover pain sucked into a short, agonizing burst in a busted filling in one tooth. All else feels fine. That tooth is my head-Messiah.

When your stomach attacks you the next morning, you know you drank too much. #hungover #happynewyear #dranktoomuch #storyofmylife
According to twitter, I'm not alone. If you don't have a hangover from hell, go kick rocks. #Phewww
Do you have your own New Year's Hangover Saga to share with the world? Tweet it to at us with the hashtag #hangoverday, and we might just include you in our roundup of Twitter's Worst New Year's Day Hangovers.

As J.P. Morgan Departures Mount, Zames' Case to Replace Dimon Builds
With high-ranking J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. executive Michael Cavanagh out of the picture, the bank's chief operating officer, Matt Zames, is now considered a potential favorite to take over whenever Chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon finally decides to step down.
Since the financial crisis, Mr. Zames has climbed from relative obscurity to apparent front-runner partly thanks to a series of shake-ups in the wake of the "London Whale" trading debacle. While he has long been on the list of potential successors to Mr. Dimon, his case keeps getting stronger as other candidates depart and Mr. Zames continues a meteoric rise through the bank's executive ranks.
He's been one of Mr. Dimon's go-to guys since at least 2008, when he was called upon to head to Bear Stearns headquarters late on a Thursday night after Bear CEO Alan Schwartz dialed up Mr. Dimon looking for help.
According to "Street Fighters," Kate Kelly's book on the collapse of Bear Stearns, Mr. Zames took only minutes to determine the seriousness of the situation. In some colorful language, Mr. Zames told the Bear Stearns team that the company wouldn't survive the next day and demanded to talk to officials at the Federal Reserve. He offered the same diagnosis to them, Kelly wrote.
Soon afterward, J.P. Morgan agreed to purchase Bear Stearns in a deal that was among a handful from that era that transformed Wall Street.
Over the span of a few months in 2012, Mr. Zames rose from head of the bank's Mortgage Banking Capital Markets division to co-head of global fixed income to chief investment officer, where he was tasked with de-risking the troubled Synthetic Credit Portfolio that was the source of the Whale losses.
Just a few months later, he was named co-COO and became the sole holder of the position when his fellow COO, Frank Bisignano, left to become CEO of First Data Corp. in April 2013.
His value to J.P. Morgan is reflected in part by the fact that he received more in total compensation than Mr. Dimon for 2012. Final compensation figures for 2013 haven't been disclosed.
Mr. Zames got his start at Long-Term Capital Management in 1994, running mortgage-backed securities for the fund, which later imploded due to currency bets that went horribly wrong.
After LTCM, Mr. Zames worked in the proprietary trading unit for Morgan Stanley and later ran several trading units at Credit Suisse First Boston before joining J.P. Morgan in 2004.
Until a few years ago, he operated in relative anonymity. In 2010, when CNBC was discussing possible successors to Dimon, it included Mr. Zames on its list. But the network included a photo of Andrew Madoff, son of convicted Ponzi schemer Bernie Madoff.

Speeches and Interviews
Remarks by Amb. Tefft at the opening of the conference: "NATO-UKRAINE: NEW CONDITIONS AND REALITIES OF COOPERATION"
On June 9, 2011, Ambassador Tefft delivered the opening remarks for the conference: "NATO-Ukraine: New Conditions and Realities of Cooperation." The conference was sponsored by the George C. Marshall Center and the National Institute for Strategic Studies.
Remarks of U.S. Ambassador John F. Tefft:
Dr. Yermolaiev, Deputy Minister Klimkin, distinguished guests and colleagues:
It is an honor for me to offer welcoming remarks at this conference on NATO-Ukraine cooperation jointly hosted by the National Institute for Strategic Studies and the George Marshall European Center for Security Studies. Today's gathering of Ukraine's leading strategic thinkers to discuss Ukraine-NATO cooperation in the political, military, and military-technical spheres is timely, as we look forward to Ukraine's concrete implementation of its Annual National Program and consider ways the Ukraine-NATO relationship can be further strengthened in light of Ukraine's declared foreign policy priorities.
I would like to briefly talk about the "new conditions and realities of cooperation," which the co-hosts have highlighted in the title of today's conference, as well as touch on the ongoing crisis in Libya as an example of a 21st century security challenge that the Alliance and its partners, including Ukraine, can jointly address.
Last November, NATO's leaders, including President Obama, adopted a New Strategic Concept for the Alliance. In addition to reaffirming Article 5 -- the central commitment to collective defense -- they decided to focus on 21st century security challenges and emerging threats such as cyber attacks, terrorism, and the proliferation of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles. The Alliance also agreed to address transnational illegal activities like trafficking in arms, people and narcotics. The Alliance stated that with the changes in the security environment since the end of the Cold War, it is important to continue the process of reducing reliance on nuclear weapons. All of this is part of an on-going process of modernizing NATO for the long haul. NATO remains the preeminent security organization in the world today and is unique in that all of its members are democracies who willingly work together and share the costs of maintaining peace.
Along the same lines, NATO's leaders also agreed to deepen and expand the Alliance's partnerships. This of course includes NATO's partnership with Ukraine, the subject of today's conference. NATO's leaders reaffirmed that the Alliance's doors remain open to European democracies such as Ukraine that meet the standards of NATO membership and are prepared to assume the responsibilities and obligations of membership.
In fact, the New Strategic Concept specifically states that NATO aims to continue to develop its partnership with Ukraine within the NATO-Ukraine Commission and taking into account Ukraine's Euro-Atlantic aspirations and orientation. Additionally, the Lisbon Summit Declaration makes clear that a "stable, democratic and economically prosperous Ukraine is an important factor for Euro-Atlantic security…," and that NATO "respects Ukraine's policy of non-bloc status." The Alliance remains committed to assisting Ukraine with wide-ranging reforms, and welcomes Ukraine's interest in developing new areas of cooperation.
The United States fully supports Ukraine's right to choose its own alliances, and to make such decisions independently. NATO membership is a demand-driven process, which requires aspirants to meet NATO's performance-based standards. The Alliance's door remains open to Ukraine should it decide to pursue membership in the future.
We fully support Ukraine's continued engagement through the NATO-Ukraine Commission and concrete, practical cooperation with NATO. Needless to say, cooperation is a two-way street, and requires active participation and input from all sides, and not just hopeful statements and declarations.
Regardless of Ukraine's decision not to pursue formal NATO membership with the Rada's proclamation of Ukraine's non-bloc status last year, Ukraine's Annual National Program, or ANP, can be an extremely useful document in guiding Ukrainian defense, political and economic reform. The ANP should form the cornerstone for the practical cooperation that Ukraine seeks with NATO.
When NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen visited Ukraine in late February, President Yanukovych said that Ukraine and NATO "agreed to continue maintaining an active political dialogue and developing practical cooperation…" The President also confirmed Ukraine's readiness to continue cooperation with NATO within the framework of peacekeeping operations, as well as to seek opportunities for cooperation in combating both traditional and new security challenges and threats.
The situation in Libya is a good example. It is the kind of 21st century security challenge that the Strategic Concept envisaged. As President Obama explained to the American people, "in Libya, we saw the prospect of imminent massacre …and heard the Libyan people's call for help." The responsibility to protect is a new concept in international relations but an old idea in human interactions – it is the responsibility of the strong to protect the weak.
Ukraine's role in Libya has been noteworthy. Its operation to evacuate both Ukrainian and foreign citizens from Libya is a great example of how your military can help address humanitarian crises. As many of you know, the Kostiantyn Olshansky evacuated over 100 people from 18 foreign countries including the United States. With this action, Ukraine reiterated anew its willingness and capability to play a constructive role in the international community.
NATO, and members of the Alliance on a bilateral level, can offer the Ukrainian armed forces still other opportunities for further reform and development. For example, the Ukrainian and U.S. militaries enjoy good, active cooperation on a variety of fronts. We have been working closely together to further professionalize Ukraine's armed forces, such as by helping to create a professional Non-Commissioned Officer Corps. Ukraine has made definite progress in this area.
The United States has provided tens of millions of dollars in military assistance in the form of advice and equipment, and hundreds of Ukrainians have studied side-by-side with Americans at U.S. military educational institutions. In addition, we have been sharing best practices in training management and techniques. This benefits us all.
We continue to work closely together in all of the areas I just mentioned, because developing common approaches to training, maintaining, controlling and sustaining operational armed forces is the core of interoperability.
Interoperability is critical to our future cooperation together, both technical and intellectual interoperability. In this context, I'd like to mention the SEA BREEZE exercise which just began its active phase off Odesa and where I spent this past weekend. As many of you know, SEA BREEZE is one of several areas of cooperation between the U.S. and Ukrainian militaries. While not formally a NATO exercise, it is conducted "in the spirit of the Partnership for Peace." The exercise aims to improve maritime safety, security and stability actions in the Black Sea by enhancing the capabilities of PFP and Black Sea regional maritime security forces.
During the exercise, sailors and Marines will work side by side with other partnering ships while underway and ashore, becoming familiar with participants' procedures and practices. Working together, these partner nations will be able to meet future peacekeeping and humanitarian operations as well as counter-trafficking and other challenges. This training will help ensure that participating forces are able to operate as a multinational task force, and will enhance maritime security capabilities.
Vice President Biden wrote in early 2010 that sustainable security in Europe requires peace and stability for all of Europe, without prejudice to old or new, East or West, or those parts of Europe within NATO, and those without. He added that we must affirm that security in Europe is indivisible, territorial integrity is important for all countries in Europe, and states should have the right to choose their own security alliances. In short the security of all European nations depends on a Europe "whole, free and at peace." Such a Europe can play an important role globally and it is a Europe that I know Ukraine aspires to be a part of. This is a goal we in the US strongly support and it is in this spirit that the United States strongly encourages Ukraine to continue developing its cooperation with NATO in concrete terms, as Ukraine seeks a greater role in the European security architecture.
Thank you.

LOS ANGELES – Aside from sharing the same profession, Kevin O'Neill isn't about to be confused for Phil Jackson. But that doesn't mean O'Neill is above playing Jackson-esque mind games.
The USC coach made this no-so-subtle statement Tuesday about Arizona star Derrick Williams, whose 10th-ranked team visits Galen Center on Thursday:
"He's the most protected dude I've seen since Michael Jordan. If the guy walks across the court, it's a foul."
Consider that O'Neill's version of "Inception" – planting a seed in the officials' minds before Thursday's 7:30 p.m. tipoff. But will it help?
Williams, the one-time USC commit from La Mirada, leads the nation in free-throw attempts (248) and is second in free throws made (187). His 75.4 percent conversion rate is respectable. His 67.5 percent accuracy from 3-point range is out of this world and just one of the reasons the 6-foot-8 sophomore is so difficult to guard.
"We don't have a matchup for Derrick Williams," O'Neill said. "Nobody on the planet's shooting 68 percent from 3. He's obviously a special player.
"He helps everybody else on his team get shots because you have to concentrate so much on him. And if you play him one on one, he'll get 25. So it's a dilemma, it really is."
O'Neill said it will require a team effort to contain Williams, who is second in the Pac-10 in scoring (19.7 ppg) and first in field-goal percentage (63.1). Last week he earned his third conference player-of-the-week award, and he's the favorite to be named the Pac-10 Player of the Year.
Unless USC (15-12, 7-7 Pac-10) faces Arizona (23-4, 12-2) in the Pac-10 Tournament, this will be the last time O'Neill has to answer questions about Williams and teammates Lamont Jones and Solomon Hill switching their commitments from USC to Arizona in spring 2009.
"That really hasn't affected me," O'Neill said. "Those guys were gone by the time I got here.
"It would have been wonderful if those three guys were here, but they're not. It would have been wonderful if I'd won the lottery last week, but I didn't."
USC held Stanford to 33.3 percent shooting to complete a rare Bay Area sweep Saturday. In the first meeting with Arizona, the Wildcats shot 61.2 percent, the highest figure for a USC opponent since 2004.
The performance prompted USC forward Nikola Vucevic's infamous assessment that the Trojans "played like women." (He subsequently apologized for the comment.)
"It's not going to be like it was up there," USC guard Donte Smith said. "We've got too much pride for that.
"They're a good team, don't get me wrong. A great team. But they're going to feel us Thursday."
USC has won three of its past four and is seeking its first three-game winning streak of the season. ... Arizona has won eight in a row. The Wildcats are second in the Pac-10 in field-goal percentage (48.0) and first in 3-point percentage (41.1). ... The game will be broadcast live on Fox College Sports Pacific and on a delayed basis at 10:30 p.m. on Prime Ticket.

Most people go through life trying to survive at their job dealing with a lot stress. What if you had a chance to work outside with the same pay, would you take the opportunity? Would you do things different if you had a choice?
If you think about the history of mankind, we are a civilization who originated from working outside with our hands in building things of value. The work performed by our ancestors was used to benefit society and to help mankind survive the environment. We as a civilization need to find our way in getting to work more outside. We need to enjoy the bountiful fruits of nature and feel the warmth of the sun rays as we work outside. This is a natural way to help us relieve stress.
Working outside also helps you stay in shape by moving around. Too often, we sit at our desks working all day and after work we then walk to our car to drive home. Once we get home, we are too tired to get on a treadmill to take care of our health. We have to take care of our family and do our household chores. This is why if you live in California that a delivery service orange county could be very helpful. This is very helpful service to give you the time you need to concentrate on your workout then on household chores. You need to really think about the advantages of working outside versus having a normal 9 to 5 job would have on your well being.

(973) 448-1901
American Sensor Technologies, Inc. (AST) manufactures pressure transducers using Hastelloy* C276 material for use with corrosive liquids and gases. Using both Krystal Bond Technology and LP Technology, AST has a full range of capability from 2.5 PSI up to 10,000 PSI. The material is a perfect compliment to stainless steel by offering a high yield strength and superior corrosion resistance.
With Krystal Bond Technology, customers receive a monolithic piece of material with no welds, O-rings, or fluid fills. Bulk silicon strain gages are mounted directly to the top of the metal diaphragm using a special glass firing process. With high raw output signal, inorganic materials, and a thick diaphragm membrane, users benefit from complete isolation of the pressure to the fitting and long-term stability.
With the increased use and development of specialty liquids and gases, special attention is being given to the materials used in contact with them. As such, increased awareness and regulations aide in this process to ensure safety of those individuals around them.
AST pressure transducers are being used in hazardous and non-hazardous locations to monitor the level and/or pressure of such chemicals using Hastelloy C276 (N10276) material. In the oil production and process industries, NACE MR0175/ISO 15156 and NACE MR0103 allow for the use of Hastelloy C276 with liquids and gases that come in contact with materials that can cause sulfide stress cracking (SSC) or stress cracking corrosion (SCC). Canadian regulations for piping and fittings in upstream and midstream piping requires provinical registration (Canadian Registration Number - CRN) of sensor fittings and materials under ASME B31.3.
Offering Hastelloy material compliments AST's other materials that are limited in this environment (316L) or not allowed (17-4 PH). With the presence of hydrogen sulfide and chlorides in many chemical processes, nickel alloys offer higher survivability than standard stainless steels. Combined with AST's sensor technology, the material, diaphragm thickness and low operating strain combine to create an ideal match for long term pressure measurement.
