I always had good luck taking the corners in AC3. What island's tavern had that game?

Says for AC3 but I used it for Black Flag to finish the challenges as well.
Use this. Will win every time.
1)Choose to start second(in AC IV)
2)place a blue chip on the board(web game) at the spot the NPC plays a chip(AC IV)
3) place your chip(AC IV) where the computer plays a orange chip(web game).
4) You'll win every time.

I hated this game in AC III and I hate this game now. I was able to defeat an intermediate opponent on my seventh try. I got the hang of the game around my third try and on my fourth try I realized how deadly the opponent can be with three pieces left (you know what I mean if you get this far). Fifth and sixth try I lost, but on my seventh I was finally able to win. It was just a lot of back and forth, I had 4 pieces and my opponent had the annoying 3. It seems my opponent just gave up and let me put 3 of my white pieces in a row so I could remove his last black piece. I was never able to beat my opponent in this game by blocking their pieces, but lord knows they did that to me.
Practice, practice, practice, with a dash of luck you could win.
When I'm concentrating, I never have more than one drink before dinner, but I do like that one to be large and very strong and very cold and very well-made.

I played against an expert in nine men morris yesterday and I won on the first try. I don't kow why it took me so long to realise that when the opponent is down to three, that's when he is the major threat (facepalm) so instead of destroying all your opponents pieces until he has 2 left, just trap his remaining pieces. It was easier and less frustrating. If you still have more pieces than your opponent, whittle his pieces down until he has 4 left and then try to trap him so he can't move any more. Yesterday I used my 6 remaining pieces to push my opponent into a corner in which he couldn't move anymore and I won. This was hell of a lot easier than destroying all but 2 pieces left.

The S&P 500 index did very little during the session on Friday as the market currently hovers around the 1460 level. The market looks like it's trying to catch its breath after a significant move higher, and as we have been sideways from the top of the up trending channel, this makes sense.
As long as the Federal Reserve continues to ease its monetary policy, the stock markets in general should do well. The US dollar of course will lose value, and this of course will have people it going into the stock markets and other asset classes in order to protect their wealth. After all, the Treasury markets offer almost no return, and as such money is looking for a place to hide.
We like buying on dips as long as we can stay above the 1400 level, and would of course by a breakout as well which would be a close above the 1460 level.

Sustainable Development
Graduate Study | Themes | Publications | Activities | Links
The concept of sustainable development, advocated in the report of the World Commission on Environment and Development (WCED), was regarded as a major theme in the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, as well the World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg in 2002. Although broadly discussed, no agreement was reached on a definition of sustainable development beyond or better than the one
in the WCED report – "development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."
An important aspect of this concept is the inclusion of a concern for future generations within the present process of development. It aims to reach a balance between environmental protection and economic development in a sustainable manner; it involves the continuing supply of resource for future generations; it requires the promotion of values that encourage consumption standards that are within the bounds of the ecologically possible and to which all can reasonably aspire; and it demands the conservation and enhancement of the natural resource base.

ROSEBURG -- Snyder Hall -- the scene of Oregon's deadliest mass shooting -- should be rebuilt with new classrooms, offices and possibly a garden to help the Umpqua Community College community move forward, a special committee recommended Wednesday.
People want the building to look different but remain part of the campus, said Betty Tamm, chair of an advisory panel of students, teachers and others who recommended the change.
"One of the big things on the committee was not to feel defeated -- like the incident defeated us," she said.
This is a way reclaim the space as a learning center while remembering those who died, she said.
Questions about what to do with Snyder Hall immediately followed the Oct. 1 shooting that left 10 people dead, including the shooter, and another nine injured.
Afterward, it was closed and wrapped in black plastic, blocking the view of cleanup crews working inside. The plastic has come down, but the building, which housed the school's writing and literature departments, has remained shuttered.
In November, the 16-member Snyder Hall Advisory Subcommittee formed and started to consider what to do with the building, looking at other sites of mass shootings for guidance.
Options ranged from demolishing it without rebuilding to slightly remodeling the interior, said Tamm, a member of the college's board of trustees.
But rebuilding made sense, she said, not only to move forward, but because Snyder Hall doesn't meet current energy efficiency standards and has structural issues.
The board will meet Thursday and is expected to approve the plan.
The board then expects to seek $3.2 million in state money to cover the project costs, said Lee Salter, Umpqua's director for community relations.
The money also will help pay for security and counseling on the campus, Tamm said.
If possible, she said, some of the hall's original materials, such as its stone, will be used for the new structure.
Portland firm, Mahlum Architects, has created the initial design.
Under the proposed rebuild, Snyder would have six classrooms and 10 faculty offices and its footprint would change.
Tamm said she doesn't know whether the building will keep its name. But it's important to the campus community, she said, to keep Snyder in the title in some way to honor its history. The building was named after Ralph I. Snyder, an Umpqua dean from the 1960s.
Now, Snyder has a breezeway that separates classrooms from two restrooms in the building.
The shooter went into one of the restrooms and left items there before walking across the breezeway and into classroom 15, Tamm said, so committee and school members wanted that design to change.
The new building would include an indoor hallway that leads to the classrooms and indoor restrooms for better security, Tamm said.
Other features may include a student lounge, with indoor and outdoor seating, that looks onto a campus fountain and a new garden outside the classrooms.
The current plan calls for the garden to have nine trees, one for each of the victims who died, Tamm said. But no final decisions have been made and a more detailed design will be drafted after funding is secured.
Tamm said the garden would give students a meditative place to remember what happened at Snyder, but would not be a memorial. A memorial committee will begin meeting in fall.

Cotton outlook shaped by China's policies
WASHINGTON – National Cotton Council economists say cotton's 2014 outlook will be influenced by China's policy decisions.
Dr. Gary Adams, the NCC's vice president Economics & Policy Analysis, told delegates at the NCC's 76th Annual Meeting this week that China's announcement of their intention to cease building reserves and offer support through a target price mechanism will shape cotton's outlook for 2014.
"For the past three years, China has been importing the world's surplus while its own production has entered the reserves," Adams said. "For the 2014 marketing year, that dynamic appears poised to change."

The official injury reports for tomorrow night's game between the Chicago Bears and New York Giants have been submitted.
For the Bears, DT Nate Collins (knee) and S Anthony Walters (hamstring) are out.
The team has four starters listed as questionable: TE Martellus Bennett (knee),LB Lance Briggs (foot/hip), DT Stephen Paea (toe) and CB Charles Tillman (knee).
The Bears conducted a walk through today. Had practice been conducted today, Briggs and Bennett would have been limited, while Paea and Tillman would have been held out.
It would be surprising if Bennett or Briggs didn't play. Tillman will likely give it a go but may not be able to finish the game, as has been the case the past two weeks.
The biggest issue is Paea, who is still dealing with pain in the toe. This is crucial, as both Collins and Henry Melton are out for the season with torn ACLs. Putting Paea on the field against the Giants puts him at risk of further injuring the toe, thus compromising the rest of his season.
If Paea can't go, expect Landon Cohen to get the start at defensive tackle alongside Corey Wootton.
Probable for Chicago are WR Joe Anderson (knee), T Eben Britton (foot), T Jermon Bushrod (calf) and WR Alshon Jeffery (ankle). Each would have practiced today and all four are expected to play.
For the Giants, the following players have been ruled out: C David Bass (neck), CB Jayron Hosley (hamstring), TE Adrien Robinson (foot), S Cooper Taylor (shoulder), CB Corey Webster (groin) and RB David Wilson (neck).
DE Damontre Moore (hamstring) is doubtful, while DT Linval Joseph (ankle), WR Louis Murphy, Jr. (ankle) and TE Brandon Myers (ankle) are questionable. All three were limited in practice today.
Probable are LS Zak DeOssie (back), LB Mark Herzlich (toe) and CB Terrell Thomas (knee).

Warmer temperatures, clear skies and dry weather will result across the forecast area. Dry air between 750 and 550 mb, as evidenced by the soundings from KGJT and KDEN has produced humidities in the teens across the higher mountains. Humidities will be low across the entire forecast area today, however winds will generally be light. Northwest winds will increase across the northern and northeastern plains which will elevate fire danger, but conditions should remain below criteria. Even though skies are expected to be clear tonight, the upper ridge and surface lee trough will produce minimum temperatures 10 to 15 degrees warmer than climatologically normal, especially east of the divide and over the plains. .LONG TERM...(Saturday through Thursday) Issued at 324 AM MDT Fri Oct 21 2016 The large upper level ridge will remain in control of our weather through Sunday with much above normal temperatures and dry conditions. Westerly flow strengthens a bit more on Saturday with a weak disturbance passing across the northern Rockies. That will bring breezy conditions to the mountains, northern foothills, and locations near the Wyoming border. Fire danger will be elevated in those locations but should stay just shy of criteria. Temperatures will warm a few more degrees with continued downslope flow and warm advection aloft. That should push highs to around 80F on most of the plains (Denver record for October 22nd is 84F set in 2003). By Sunday, a weak backdoor cold front sinks across the plains. That would bring several degrees of cooling, although highs will still be above normal. On Monday, southwest flow will begin to increase as upper ridge axis shifts eastward. This will allow mid/upper level moisture to stream into the state. As a result, expect scattered rain and snow showers to develop in the high country Monday afternoon and night, with a few lingering into Tuesday with passage of an upper level disturbance. Most of the precipitation will be confined to the mountains and western slope of Colorado, as in the lee of the Rockies there is mostly downslope and little if any low level forcing noted at this time. Only slight cooling of daytime highs is expected. For the latter half of next week, expect more dry weather and a continuation of above normal temperatures. The upper level ridge is expected to pop back up over the Central and Southern Rockies in response to a deep digging trough over the eastern Pacific. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Friday night) Issued at 324 AM MDT Fri Oct 21 2016 VFR conditions expected through early Saturday morning under mostly clear skies.

Amy Wakeham
Great. Thanks. Good morning, everyone. Thanks for joining us and welcome to Leap's Fourth Quarter 2012 Conference Call. This call is being webcast live, and together with our earnings release and presentation, are available on the Investor Relations section of our corporate website. The results and data we discuss today reflect the consolidated results of Leap, its subsidiaries and joint venture partners for the period indicated. During our call, we will discuss some non-GAAP measures. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, please see the notes to the financial statements of today's earnings release, or visit the Financial Reports page of our website.
I'd like to remind you that we're no longer breaking out the customer results and related customer metrics of our Voice and Broadband Services separately. However, as we continue to narrow our focus to our Cricket monthly pay in advance services, we will discuss the customer results of Cricket Wireless in addition to our consolidated results.
Cricket Wireless refers to our traditional monthly voice service and excludes Cricket Broadband and Cricket PAYGo. As a reminder, statements about expected future events and future results are forward-looking and subject to risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may vary. Please refer to the risk factors detailed in our SEC filings for further discussions. For anyone listening to a taped or webcast replay or viewing a written transcript of our fourth quarter call, please note that all information presented is current only as of today's date, February 20, 2013. The company disclaims any duty or obligation to update any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
On the call today to discuss our fourth quarter results are Doug Hutcheson, Leap's Chief Executive Officer; Jerry Elliott, Leap's President and Chief Operating Officer; and Perley McBride, Leap's Chief Financial Officer. Following our prepared remarks, the call operator will come back on the line for Q&A portion. I'd now like to turn the call over to Doug.
Stewart Douglas Hutcheson
Welcome and thank you for joining us this morning. As we take you to our fourth quarter results, I think it's important to put them in the context of the significant transition we see for consumer purchases of wireless services. Consumer desire for higher quality smartphones is unprecedented and this has reflected in the expanding industry sales volume of devices that cost $400 or more. This change drives us as a business to address how we can profitably capitalize on substantially better customer lifetime value of our offering, compared to that of postpaid carrier for these devices. Value-seeking customers can save over $1,000 on their iPhone or Galaxy 3 smartphone over 2 years with Cricket, which gives us a real opportunity if we can get the total offering right. Over recent quarters, we have made and continue to make significant improvements to our customer experience in the attractiveness of our offering, so that we can retain customers longer on higher ARPU plans, which will in turn, benefit us financially.
Our fourth quarter results reflect this ongoing transition and show the progress we're making towards goals in areas like churn. The results also show areas that require real improvements like gross additions. Year-over-year, gross additions decreased, mostly as a result of general softness in the prepaid sector and our focus on selling more full-featured, higher-priced smart devices that lead to longer customer lifetimes. We also reduced promotions on lower-priced devices as we've seen this activity drive lower customer lives and higher upgrade expenses. This strategy has narrowed our focus to Cricket pay in advance monthly plans, which we will discuss as Cricket Wireless and reduced emphasis on our broadband and daily PAYGo services. We expect this focus will likely impact our gross additions as the out the door costs are higher. However, we're encouraged that our actions have also resulted in improving Cricket Wireless churn performance.
The priority now is to introduce expanded initiatives to drive front door activity for Cricket Wireless, which we plan to accomplish through expanded device financing and other programs to help customers affordably purchase high-quality, smart devices with a customer experience that meets their needs.
Turning to financial performance, our focus remains on driving our revenue while improving operating efficiencies and cost reductions throughout the business, all with the goal of achieving free cash flow. ARPU improved, reflecting an increase of higher value customers. Total new customer acquisition costs were also lower on an annual basis, with the increase of fourth quarter CPGA, driven primarily by lower gross addition volume in the quarter. These factors and other cost management initiatives enable us to keep expenses under control and are driving the cost structure down except in those areas where we see a customer benefit that will result in a longer life customer. As a result, we saw improvements in both OIBDA and OIBDA margins. For the year, we achieved $600 million of OIBDA as well as our continued improvements in cash flow, driving free cash flow remains a top priority and while we didn't make as much progress as we would've liked primarily as a result of slower customer activity and the resulting higher inventories, we expect further cash flow improvement as we move through 2013. During the quarter, we also continued to thoughtfully manage our balance sheet and valuable spectrum assets, including completing our fourth spectrum exchange transaction in the last 2 years. These transactions have increased our average spectrum depth by 6 megahertz to 23 megahertz and raised nearly $120 million. This has been done against the backdrop of increasing spectrum prices. We're in the enviable position of having an attractive, valuable and more focused spectrum portfolio.
Let me now turn to Slide 7 to explain how we're executing our transition strategy and outline the progress we're making. First, it is clear in this competitive market that a key requirement for success is our ability to differentiate ourselves through the experience we provide our customers at every touch point. In the past quarter, we've seen significant improvements to our activation processes and device portfolio quality, which are delivering a better customer experience. We see this progress in the churn results of Cricket Wireless, which are similar year-over-year even though we substantially reduced our typical retention activities. Within our existing customer base, we're continuing to focus on the most profitable customers and working how to best retain this important component of our base.
As we service our core customer base, we will focus on providing affordable options through the expansion of our Lifeline programs and services such as Muve Music. We have seen success in acceptance of Cricket Lifeline, and we believe there are more opportunities here, which Jerry will discuss with you shortly. We're also seeing the benefits of using Muve Music as a tool to retain our current customer base. Earlier this quarter, we announced that we had achieved over 1.1 million customers and believe that we are one of the largest digital music subscription services in the United States. Of course, as I said, we also need to attract more customers profitably. As we look towards postpaid and acquiring more share, we want to remind you that 2/3 of our new customers have typically come from postpaid carriers and plans. We've made great strides in having the right devices for consumers but we need to continue to evolve our model to reduce the out-the-door price of higher quality devices. It's clear we can't do this with additional subsidy dollars and so our real opportunity is through expansion and growth of device financing programs. In the fourth quarter, we completed our anticipated rollout of 4G LTE services and added the best-selling Samsung Galaxy 3 to our growing lineup of iconic and high-end devices. How we use our spectrum will be the focus -- will be a focus as we find the right balance between our own network usage plans and arrangements with others. I'd now like to turn the call over to Jerry to discuss our customer and operational results.
Jerry Elliott
Thank you, Doug. In addition to the weak fourth quarter experienced by the prepaid industry as a whole that Doug talked about, our device pricing has definitely affected our number of gross additions and our average device selling price has increased $32 from a year ago from $47 in the fourth quarter of 2011, to $79 in the fourth quarter of 2012.
As we have talked about, we're trying to balance the slower customer activity that is now the reality of the industry environment with investing in customers who stay with us longer. Our fourth quarter net additions were also meaningfully impacted by a more disciplined and profitable approach to customer retention and win back activity this year. As we told you last quarter, we stopped marketing and sales of our broadband product at the end of the year. Some broadband inventory is still in our sales channels and we'll sell through that inventory over the next couple of quarters. We'll also continue to support our current broadband customer base.
As one of the parts of transitioning our business, during the fourth quarter, we also stopped selling our PAYGo daily product because it is a very high churn customer base. So you're going to see the number of broadband and PAYGo daily customers continue to decline. And then finally, in the fourth quarter of 2011, the national retail channel had 121,000 net adds and then in the fourth quarter of 2012, the channel lost 31,000 customers as we focused only on the best national retail partners.
So just to be sure you have a sense of the size of these products, at the end of the year, we had 210,000 broadband customers, 136,000 PAYGo daily customers, 336,000 PAYGo monthly customers and then 4.6 million Cricket Wireless customers. We expect first quarter 2013 Cricket Wireless gross additions to be lower year-over-year and the tax season this year was delayed by 2 or 3 weeks. But it's well underway now, but that may affect some of our first quarter customer activity.
On Slide 10, you can see Cricket Wireless churn of 3.7% was near the churn levels in the fourth quarter of 2011, even with significantly less retention activity. Our estimate is that churn would've been actually 50 to 60 basis points lower in the fourth quarter if in fact, we had run similar levels of retention activities that we did a year ago. However, if we had run those same kinds of program again, we also believe that we would see the negative effects in the first half of 2013 similar to what we saw in 2012. We're also beginning to see improvements to customer survival rates for our Muve customers. We expect first quarter churn to be near the first quarter 2012 levels for our Cricket Wireless business.
On Slide 11, we're focused on offering products and services that appeal to a very broad range of customers, all of whom are seeking value. Cricket Lifeline now has over 440,000 customers and we offer the program to over 95% of our covered POPs. Just as a reminder, Cricket Lifeline is a subsidized discount off our monthly rate plans, offering flexibility and choice. It is not the free phones and free service programs that other carriers are offering. Our Lifeline customers stay with us significantly longer and bring nearly twice as much as lifetime value as non-Lifeline customers. You may have heard concerns from some other carriers about Lifeline recertification. Our customer results reflect the completion of the SEC's recertification requirement in 2012 and we do not believe there's significant risk for us. About 40% of our Lifeline customers are in states where there is some level of requalification on at least a quarterly basis. Our customers are actively using our service and paying their bill every month. If they do not recertify, they no longer receive the Lifeline discount. However, they are not automatically disconnected from the other service, which is quite different from other carriers who offer free service as part of their Lifeline offering.
With respect to postpaid, we see a great opportunity to acquire share. In fact, about 2/3 of our gross adds come from a postpaid carrier. And then more broadly speaking, the majority of all wireless consumers of every income demographic are postpaid customers today. In order to successfully compete, we have to solve the high out-the-door price hurdle for our customer. Consumer desire for high-end devices has allowed postpaid carriers to turn device sales from being a subsidy event into actually, a very lucrative profit center. And we expect to evolve and enhance our device financing programs later this year. We'll also continue to innovate and offer new products to target and attract postpaid customers over the next several months.
Now I'll turn the call over to Perley to talk about the financial results.
R. Perley McBride
Thanks, Jerry, and good morning, everyone. As you heard from Doug and Jerry, against the backdrop of a highly competitive environment, we are continuing to transition and we remain focused on actions both near and longer term, to generate profitable growth and positive free cash flow. As a result of this, I'm excited to be here in part of the Leap Team as there are many opportunities for us to continue to move the business forward.
Turning to Slide 13, we experienced a nice uptick in Q4 ARPU. This increase was primarily driven by a reduction in retention programs. We also saw a lift in ARPU as a result of the decline in the number of PAYGo daily customers and we continue to see a greater percentage of our customers in higher value rate plans. Going forward, we expect ARPU will remain around levels we experienced in second half of 2012, with some quarterly fluctuations driven by the seasonal nature of the prepaid business as well as future changes to our product mix.
On Slide 14, year-over-year, CCU increased primarily due to 3 factors: first, network costs were higher as a result of an increase in backhaul and expense associated with decommissioning some cell sites; second, logistics cost increased year-over-year as a result of the change in our reverse logistics processes as well as higher repair cost associated with smartphones; and finally, product costs were higher, driven by the increase in customers on a Muve Music rate plan. At the end of the fourth quarter, 22% of our customers were on a Muve Music rate plan compared to 9% in Q4 2011. CCU in the fourth quarter increased slightly quarter-over-quarter as the mix of upgrades favored higher-end devices offset by a reduction in G&A expenses.
We expect CCU to increase at the same year-over-year pace in the first quarter as a result of the increased backhaul.
Slide 15. As discussed on recent quarterly calls, we are focused on managing our subsidy cost at the unit level. You can see on Slide 15 that total subsidy dollars for new customers in the fourth quarter were down $49 million year-over-year and $24 million sequentially. We continue to be prudent with our subsidy spend and will not overspend just to acquire customers. We are focused on acquiring the right customers, those who will stay with us longer. While total acquisition spending was down year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter, CPGA increased due to the lower customer activity in the fourth quarter. In fact, 90% of the year-over-year increase in CPGA was driven by volume. The remaining 10% of the increase was the result of increased dealer compensation as we supported our dealer network through this lower volume period.
Our strategic focus on acquiring the right customers may result in lower gross add volumes. Nevertheless, it is our conviction that focusing on the core issue, addressing the customer's desire for a high-end device rather than chasing customer additions through spending, will result in the acquisition of longer-tenured, higher-value customers.
Looking forward, we expect first quarter's CPGA to decline sequentially although it will remain higher on a year-over-year basis if gross add volumes remain low.
On Slide 16, looking at our fourth quarter financial results, we are beginning to see the financial impacts of steps we have taken to improve our operational execution over the past few quarters. We are pleased to see growth in adjusted OIBDA and adjusted OIBDA margin, even though our smaller customer base has pressured service revenue. We remain focused on making intelligent investments on the right things that will drive smart customer growth with increased survival. I'll talk more about free cash flow in a moment. However, I'd like to point out that our negative free cash flow in the fourth quarter was driven by higher-than-expected inventory levels as a result of the slow customer activity we saw during the quarter. We expect to address these inventory levels in the coming quarters.
Slide 17 further highlights the results of our financial discipline. As a percentage of service revenue, nearly every spending category was flat or down both sequentially and year-over-year. On a year-over-year basis, non-product cost was the only line item that increased as a percentage of service revenue, primarily due to higher network cost associated with the increased backhaul and cell site decommissioning cost mentioned earlier. Sales and marketing as a percentage of service revenue increased sequentially, primarily due to increased spend for the holiday selling season and slow front-door customer activity, which resulted in lower service revenue.
Moving to Slide 18. CapEx spending in the fourth quarter was $63 million, bringing full-year 2012 CapEx to $434 million, below our full-year CapEx guidance.
Looking to 2013, we remain focused on investing CapEx dollars where we expect to see the most impact and the highest return. We anticipate 2013 CapEx to be in the range of $275 million to $325 million for the year, including up to $100 million related to LTE. As further evidence of our commitment to focus on the most impactful areas to move our business forward, our 2012 results reflect nearly $40 million in one-time restructuring costs that we expect to drive annualized future cost savings of $15 million plus an additional $40 million of benefit in 2013.
Lastly as expected, we recently resolved the dispute with Sprint with no material impact to our financial statements. As we continue down the path of becoming free cash flow positive, we are maintaining and in some cases, heightening internal discipline around everything we do. Our strategy is unchanged. We are carefully evaluating every capital project and will continue to spend only on those projects that provide the most benefit to our customers. We understand that was a lower customer base we cannot simply sustain our current spending levels, so we must remain sharply focused on continued reductions in our cost structure, even as we work harder to deliver a great customer experience. I'd now like to turn the call back over to Doug to discuss our strategic initiatives.
Stewart Douglas Hutcheson
Thank you, Perley. And I also want to welcome you to the team. Turning to Slide 20, I'd like to briefly discuss our networks and how they're operating. We now offer 4G LTE services to approximately 21 million covered POPs that operate robust 3G networks across our footprint and in conjunction with others nationally. We continue to make smart investments in our network to ensure that our customers have a strong voice and data experience, whether they're on 3G or 4G. Our initial 4G markets are up and running and we look forward to watching these markets develop and progress as more and more customers select our 4G service offerings. With average speeds of over 4 megabits per second, we are offering a high-speed data experience with high-quality devices at an affordable price for our customer. Additionally, we're pleased to have recently entered into a nationwide 4G roaming agreement that will provide us the opportunity to supplement our facilities-based coverage as we continue to evaluate our options for continuing to rollout LTE. We expect that we will have the appropriate devices ready to take this expanded service footprint to market in the second half of 2013. We may elect to deploy up to 10 million additional LTE covered POPs in 2013. But again, our focus will be on making smart investments between building ourselves and partnering with others.
Turning to Slide 21, we want to highlight our spectrum situation. As we mentioned, we have completed 4 significant spectrum transactions over the past 2 years and that has reduced our footprint from over 180 million licensed POPs to now less than 140 million. These swaps increased our averaged operating market depth by 6 megahertz. Our active management of this asset, which is currently about 40% utilized in our operating markets gives us comfort that we have adequate spectrum to complete our initial 4G rollout. Our spectrum also has substantial value as we consider our alternatives. It is clear, as the recent transactions demonstrate, that this is an asset that's likely increasing in value.
In closing, we're making progress with our transition, which can be seen in our results in areas such as churn and ARPU, with more progress required in areas like gross customer additions. We're laser-focused on improving customer experience while generating free cash flow and improve margins with the ultimate goal to deliver the best possible value to shareholders. I'd now like to turn the call over to the operator for the Q&A.
Question-and-Answer Session
[Operator Instructions] And our first question is coming from the line of Simon Flannery with Morgan Stanley.
Simon Flannery - Morgan Stanley, Research Division
I wondered if you could just talk a little bit more about the gross add situation, in particular, we've seen weakness across the prepaid industry this quarter and for a couple of quarters here. You touched on a couple of things, some of the tax impacts in Q1, some of the handset pricing but perhaps, you can just talk a little bit more deeply, are we seeing something more challenging for prepaid? Are there issues around saturation in some segments here? Are the prepaid family plans -- or the postpaid family plans having a bigger impact? So more color around sort of the overall market conditions there and what you can do to address that.
Jerry Elliott
Simon, it's Jerry. Yes, I mean, there's no question, there are some macro things going on. We think that by far and away, the biggest issue is the device pricing and the ability of customers to pay the big upfront price.
Simon Flannery - Morgan Stanley, Research Division
And what's the magic price you think?
Jerry Elliott
I'm sorry?
Simon Flannery - Morgan Stanley, Research Division
What's the magic price? Is it 1 99 or 1 49 or...
Jerry Elliott
Certainly, in that range but I don't think there's any particular magic price. What we find is that consumers, regardless of the income demographics, they all want these same kinds of higher-end devices. They all want good feature functionality. And so if you look at kind of the types of handsets that people purchase and you look at the type of rate plans people go on, for example, our Lifeline customers purchase the same kinds of rate plans and the same kind of devices that non-Lifeline customers purchase. So it's very hard to distinguish the kinds of things that people want based on income demographics, if you will. So that again brings us back to the out-the-door device pricing. So the postpaid carriers are financing devices quite profitably these days. They might talk about subsidies and I know the investment community likes to talk about big subsidies. Those are one-time events because if you look at the cost of -- the monthly cost of a consumer and you look to compare that to the costs to the carrier providing that service, they're making a very large margin on that monthly payment. And so they're financing the device. You can call it whatever you want but they're definitely financing the device over the 2-year contract. And so you're going to see us continue to evolve the kinds of financing programs we've got in place today offer consumers different options in terms of the ways they might want to pay to lower that upfront pricing because its -- there's no question, it's a barrier. The family plans you mentioned, yes, I mean, the data sharing plans, I think that is a challenge. You will also see us do some things I mentioned in my scripts and things we're going to be doing that target postpaid customers. You'll see us do some things in that area. We're not going to go buy people out of contracts like some other people have done because I can't remotely make the math work on that. But you will see us do -- offer some products that we think are more competitive with the kinds of things that attract people to postpaid consumers. And again, regardless of the income demographic, that majority of wireless consumers out there are postpaid carriers -- or excuse me, postpaid customers. And so we believe the 2 barriers or the things that are shifting the mix to postpaid right now are -- is primarily the out-the-door price. And so that's where we're really focusing a lot of our time, effort, and you'll see a lot of, I think, innovation out of us the next few months on that.
Our next question comes from the line of Ric Prentiss with Raymond James.
Richard H. Prentiss - Raymond James & Associates, Inc., Research Division
A couple of questions. First, if you think about your cash position and then the CapEx guidance that was given, how do you look at the cash burn throughout the year and when do you need to make that decision on are you going to build the extra 10 million POPs and $100 million with LTE?
Stewart Douglas Hutcheson
Well, I think as we look towards 2013, our goal is to have an improving cash flow position, including the money associated with the incremental LTE POPs. So I think our decision on whether or not we build the LTE POPs, the next round is as much focused on alternatives between doing ourselves -- doing it ourselves and with others is really the primary focus on that, Ric. So I think we'll let things evolve. We'll be back to update you at the next call on what we think our timing is on that. But I wouldn't see that as being -- it's focused on what's the best way and most profitable way to get the next round of services out there. It isn't focused right now on where we're at because I think we feel that we have programs in place that cause us to believe we're going to see improvements in our cash flow.
Richard H. Prentiss - Raymond James & Associates, Inc., Research Division
And then a couple of quarters back, you had put in a slide that kind of showed your spectrum utilization and I compared the mobile broadband product when it was around and the 3G customer base, the ability to move on to 4G. When you think about that spectrum utilization chart and then you look at Slide 27 in the deck, talking about how there's a lot of excess spectrum or underutilized spectrum, how do you mesh those 2 charts? The one from a couple of quarters ago to kind of where you see yourself today? And we constantly are hearing that people are surprised, carriers are surprised by how much consumption is going across these 4G devices.
Stewart Douglas Hutcheson
Sure. The first piece is I think the data from the slides that we presented a couple of quarters ago is really consistent with what we've also included in there. So we've done 4 different swaps over the last 2 years, all of those swaps have been focused on taking what was already a spectrum position for 4G that was adequate to get us started, and making it better. And so what we've seen is that the spectrum position that we have in particularly, our most attractive markets has actually gotten deeper. And so as we look at 4G, we're feeling, as we rollout that service, that the existing spectrum, the 40% not utilized, really gives us a pretty good initial runway at how to work that. The other -- the next piece is that the 4G services that we've got that are up and running, we're pleased with the way they're running, the 4 megabits. The other piece that we should have given a comparative on is that we've also, through the course of the year, effectively doubled, nearly doubled I think, the 3G network speeds as well. So our whole network platform in the last year has really, I think, gotten a whole lot better, both the way our networks are operating, the quality of the speeds that we're providing on the networks, the introduction of 4G services on those. So when we look at spectrum from here, we really are deciding, do we put the next incremental dollar against that existing spectrum and do it ourselves or do we, as we've said, look at other alternatives to do it? And we're head down. We have shown a lot of progress in working with others on spectrum and resolving some of the other outstanding things that -- agreements that have -- that affect us with the introduction of nationwide 4G roaming as well during the quarter. So we feel like we're making good progress there.
Our next question comes from the line of David Barden with Bank of America.
David W. Barden - BofA Merrill Lynch, Research Division
Jerry, just first, I was wondering if you could give us an update on kind of your level of happiness/satisfaction with the conversations you've been having with the rest of the marketplace regarding trying to extract the maximum value from assets of Leap, be it spectrum sales or full strategic sales. If you could kind of just give a sense as to whether any traction has been gotten and what your satisfaction level is there? And I guess second, if you could just kind of update us on where you are with the Apple relationship and kind of what -- how far you went towards satisfying your requirements under that agreement in the second part of the year and kind of what your, again, approach is towards making sure you fulfill those contract minimums? If I could, just a last one, I'm not quite sure I understand that -- so we've got a national LTE roaming agreement presumably with known math and we've got this potential contingent $100 million we're going to spend on LTE. I'm not quite sure I understand why we're not sure whether we're doing it or not if we've got all the moving pieces that we need to make the conclusion in front of us. It would be helpful if you could clear that up.
Jerry Elliott
Yes, David, let me see if I can take them -- do them in the same order but in terms of the 4G or LTE build decision, I mean, it's really just an economic build versus buy decision. I mean, that's really all it is. We've got the option to buy from another carrier. We've got the option to build. And so, it's really just, from our perspective, what's the highest and best use of the next dollar of spend. Whether it's capital or operating spend, we don't really make that distinction. It's where do we get the biggest return on the dollar, whether that's building LTE or whether that's buying LTE. We definitely know that we want to -- need to provide 4G services to the customers. So we're going to do that one-way or another but that's -- it's an economic decision on which way do we go. And that's really at the market level. So do we build versus buy and every single one of the markets that make up that 10 million POPs. It's not a 10 million POP decision, it's a market by market by market decision. In terms of Apple, we -- sales of Apple devices were pretty good in the fourth quarter, actually, even with the challenges that I mentioned, this assignment on the out-the-door price. There was a good mix of sales in the iPhone, I would say. There was a stronger device in our lineup which was the Galaxy Samsung 3, also an extremely high-end device. And so we were pretty encouraged and continue to be real encouraged by the number of sales of high-end devices. We are not concerned about in terms of meeting the Apple commitment. We think that's going to be fine. So we're not going to give a blow-by-blow update on exactly where we stand on the total commitment but we're not concerned about meeting those obligations over the lifetime of that contract. And then your first question about my level of happiness, well -- so I'm not happy with our results in the slightest. I do think people need to focus on our core Cricket Wireless business, which is our traditional pay in advance business. That's where we're putting the emphasis. So when I see people talk about our total subscriber numbers, they tend to throw in the broadband product and the PAYGo daily product that we've been really clear about, that are exiting. So I'd ask people to focus on the business that we're focused on, which is the 4.6 million pay in advance customers. But in terms of the kind of strategic activity level, the asset value, I think obviously, we've all seen a fair amount of strategic activity in the third quarter and now, even just recently, if you look at the asset values, I think it's fair to say that the prices -- the observed prices in the marketplace in the last few weeks continue to increase pretty significantly and so, that's encouraging. I obviously, can't really comment on specific conversations but in terms of an appreciating asset, I think there were some pretty recent reconfirmations that the asset does continue to increase in value and until we get to a place where we want to do something on the strategic side, as we've been trying to talk about for a while, driving free cash flow out of the business is first and foremost on our list of priorities. And again, that's running the business at a market level very differently than perhaps, it's been run in the past. And as I said, I've said a number of times over the last several months, I mean, that does have volume implications. I've tried to be really clear about that. So we've got to size the business and the cost structure for not only what's going on from a macro standpoint that Simon talked about but also things that we're doing ourselves like raising the out-the-door device price, as I mentioned in the script.
Our next question comes from the line of Shing Yin from Guggenheim.
Shing Yin - Guggenheim Securities, LLC, Research Division
I wanted to see if you could give us a little more color on gross adds. Going into fourth quarter, I appreciate your comment earlier that we should expect gross adds to be lower year-over-year. But just on a sequential basis, are we seeing gross adds pick up a bit in the first quarter so far, maybe because you have started to offer some of your device financing programs, maybe because some of the big postpaid smartphone launches are now behind us and then also, are you getting any benefit from the tax refund cycle this time around?
Jerry Elliott
Sean, we don't give quarterly guidance. Very specifically, it's kind of directional. We've said it's going to be down year-over-year. I would say in terms of what have we seen so far, I mentioned the tax season did start 2 or 3 weeks later this year than it has historically. The IRS, I don't think would even process applications until the end of January. So tax money has definitely started coming into the market. We do see that in the last week or 10 days but it's also is a later start. So I don't want to get ahead of ourselves in terms of predicting how the full tax season is going to play out but it has arrived. It's just arrived later than normal and it's kind of early days. And I would say on the device financing side, we do have a product today. It's not nearly as broad-based as we want it to be or need it to be. And so, we're spending a lot of time trying to come up with additional ways to finance handsets for consumers in ways that the postpaid guys have been doing for years, they're financing handsets. Whatever people want to call it, they're financing handsets. And so we've got to broaden the offering that we've currently got in that market much more widely in order to have it really drive any meaningful number of gross adds. We've got something into the marketplace for Black Friday. We've learned a lot from it. We've got some things that we want to do differently with it going forward but it's not, right now, driving any meaningful number of gross adds and it needs to for sure. So it needs to change and evolve going forward, and it will.
Our next question comes from the line of Gerard Hallaren with Janco Partners.
Gerard Hallaren - Janco Partners, Inc., Research Division
It is tough out there. Given that, I thought the numbers were actually not bad at all. Could you take a moment and talk about the Cricket Wireless business that is shaping up to be more like a postpaid business? Give us a feel of what the incremental activity is in terms of what churn rates look like or gross adds look like there? And then I have questions about your spectrum trade.
Stewart Douglas Hutcheson
Sure. Well, I'll start and maybe Jerry, you can add where you feel appropriate. I think people need to recognize that in the last 2 years, it was what the opening slide was trying to flag, is that as an industry, after many years of declining device prices, we've seen consumer appetite go up substantially for much higher-priced devices. You saw that reflected -- Jerry outlined nearly a 70% year-over-year increase in out-the-door price of the device. We think that, that is going to continue to go up as consumer appetite for those better devices continues. And it really flags the transition that we, as a company, need to make and at the industry, which is how do we get those better devices into people's hands, still have the advantages of the lower, no contract basis that we have for our services that we provide and yet, provide a structure to people so that they can get the devices at a lower price out-the-door. And so we introduced, Jerry mentioned it, we introduced one program that did that at right before Black Friday. We've seen tens of thousands of people get into that program, but we think the opportunity is much, much larger than that. So I think there will become a business that some meaningful portion of our future customers that desire better devices will in fact, be on some type of a financing contract for that device is what our goal is. And then we'll be back to update you as we get through the year. But we'll still be a -- our primary go-to-market strategy will remain the no contract opportunity and then we'll provide additional opportunities for customers to finance that device. We actually gave you the details in our earnings presentation, Jerry covered those. You may want to add on where we're at inside the Cricket Wireless both on gross adds and churn. So maybe, Jerry, do you want to add any color on those?
Jerry Elliott
Yes. So in terms of our core Cricket Wireless business, if you look at the slides in the presentation, you can see that the trends and changes in the Cricket Wireless gross adds. I mean, again, we're -- both from a macro standpoint as well as some of the things we're doing about the out-the-door price of the device, we're affecting volume, there's no question. And we've said that will continue into the first quarter. In terms of churn, again, we -- I think it's an important point. We saw churn in the most recent quarter about the same as it was a year ago. However, there's a major difference in what happened, which is, a year ago, that a lot of that activity was driven by some very aggressive retention and win back programs that we did that we discontinued and have not done this year. And so we're achieving the same level of churn even without frankly, buying a lot of customers just to put it in stark terms. And so, we think that means the underlying churn rate is improving. In a world of much slower growth, keeping your customers, retaining your customers is obviously, far more important than it was 3 years ago when all boats were rising as the pie grew. So in a lower gross add environment, we're focused a lot more heavily on retention.
Gerard Hallaren - Janco Partners, Inc., Research Division
And if you look at that customer, you've talked about -- a lot about average lifetime value. Maybe could you give us a ratio of how a Cricket Wireless customer compares to a Lifeline value? You said something there, which I'm not sure I understood completely.
Jerry Elliott
So the churn rates, the deactivation rates for a Lifeline customer are considerably lower than they are for the rest of the Cricket wireless customer base. And that trends -- I mean, obviously, if the churn rates, the deactivation rates are significantly lower, that's going to result in a much greater value of the customer over that lifetime, because they're staying with us almost twice as long as a non-Lifeline customer stays, so that's how you get there. But it's a very, very sticky customer, very loyal customer and it's a product that we continue to believe is one of the 2 or 3 keys to our success.
Our next question comes from the line of James Moorman with S&P Capital IQ.
James G. Moorman - S&P Equity Research
The question I had was, could you just talk a little bit about your out of market strategy and how kind of the RadioShacks did in the most recent quarter?
Jerry Elliott
Yes. So just to be sure we got the context, we really significantly narrowed our focus on national retail over the course of 2012. I think as I mentioned in the fourth quarter of 2011, we had 121,000 net adds from national retail and in the fourth quarter of 2012, we lost 31,000 customers in national retail. That loss didn't occur because of RadioShack or Walmart who were 2 partners we're focused on, that -- that loss occurred because we got out of a number of other retailers where it wasn't -- they weren't profitable places for us to do business and so that was the -- that customer base from those particular big box retailers rolling off. So RadioShack, Walmart, we had focused on those 2 retailers because wireless is a very important part of their product set in their stores. RadioShack offers a very much more personal, one-on-one customer service connection than a general big box retailer does. Those 2 relationships are going well. And again, I think the results reflect really getting out of a bunch of national retailers as opposed to what happened in the 2 that we're committed to today.
Our next question comes from the line of Phil Cusick with JPMorgan.
Philip Cusick - JP Morgan Chase & Co, Research Division
First, a clarification. I think Shing asked this, but could you give us a Cricket-branded gross add number from 1Q '12? You said that it was going to be down year-over-year, but I don't know if we have a baseline.
Jerry Elliott
You know what, I don't even remember the number off the top of my head. We can -- maybe can follow up with you on that so...
Amy Wakeham
[indiscernible] with you on that.
Philip Cusick - JP Morgan Chase & Co, Research Division
Okay. And you talked about improving cash flow through '13. Are you guiding for positive cash flow in '13? Do you think it's just going to improved in terms of negative levels?
R. Perley McBride
So our focus is being cash flow positive. We -- I'll say, as we ended this year, we're still negative about $200 million or so. But that is our drive as a company, is to become free cash flow positive. What I will say and we -- and a couple of questions on the CapEx and is CapEx a toggle of free cash flow, and I see those as 2 different things. One is driving a discipline within the company around how we need to make our investment and our capital decisions are the same way. I don't want people thinking that our LTE builds are contingent upon our free cash flow position. We look at every dollar, as Jerry said, to give us a return. So it's -- LTE falls in the same path and when you think of LTE, it's a build versus buy as Jerry said. The variables are adoption of 4G phones and then consumption. So in having a national roaming agreement in place allows us flexibility because the toggle is when you have more consumption, you want to move to a build model. And so I just -- some couple of questions around that on the phone, I just want to make sure we're kind of clear on their -- we see them as 2 separate things driving towards positive free cash flow and how we need to invest in our network.
Philip Cusick - JP Morgan Chase & Co, Research Division
Okay. Can I follow-up there? Can you give us a little more detail on this -- the LTE roaming deal? Is this an in-region, is it an out-of-region? When does it start to ramp up? When can customers start to use it? And could you use it exclusively if you decided to sell parts of your network or your spectrum?
Stewart Douglas Hutcheson
We'll give more details over time on it. But the roaming agreement, Phil, in particular, is a nationwide roaming agreement. So we could use it both in an existing market or outside of an existing market. As we said in the script, we think the focus will be on supplementing existing coverage, much the same as we've done with some of our national 3G agreement. There may be other alternatives that we have that would allow us to look at using other features that we have in markets that we haven't built LTE. But I think we, again, will come back to you in a quarter or so, and we'll update you on how we're thinking about those alternatives as we go forward.
Philip Cusick - JP Morgan Chase & Co, Research Division
And did that add to or come with another minimum obligation over a few [ph] year period?
Stewart Douglas Hutcheson
We'll update you. I believe that you'll see that our minimum revenue commitment actually has gone down as we disclosed. So I don't think that there's anything that's a factor relative to that in these agreements.
Philip Cusick - JP Morgan Chase & Co, Research Division
Okay. If I can just get one more clarification in. How much of the 4Q cost were things like onetime site decommissioning and how many sites was that?
Stewart Douglas Hutcheson
We don't have -- the total restructuring costs were in the $20-some million range. We haven't released specifically how many sites that was. But as a percentage of our total sites, Phil, it was a real small number. I mean, we're decommissioning some -- a few low-volume sites, a few zone and hold sites, and we still built, during the year, sites and we will build during this coming year, sites. And so I would tell you that, that was just a footprint optimization that we were doing in trying to make sure that we were utilizing things most efficiently.
Ladies and gentlemen, that does conclude our allotted time for questions. I'll now pass the call back to Ms. Wakeham for closing remarks.
Amy Wakeham
Great. Thanks. Thanks for joining us for our call this morning. We appreciate your time and we look forward to updating you on our progress on the next quarterly call. If you've got any further questions, please direct them to the Investor Relations team here at Leap. Have a great day.

PSUR Work Sharing and Synchronisation Project
The PSUR work sharing and synchronisation project was initiated in 2002 under the auspices of the HMA and the European Risk Management Strategy Facilitation Group (ERMS FG). The concept of the project is that substances would have harmonised birthdates allowing MAHs to submit PSURs for products containing the same substance to NCAs at the same time, thereby allowing work sharing and reducing administrative burden. The EU PSUR Work sharing Working Group (WS WG) was established to facilitate the PSUR work sharing project and became a Working Party of CMDh in 2012. In 2015 the working party was renamed to the Pharmacovigilance Procedures Worksharing Working Party; its mandate can be found at (http://www.hma.eu/330.html).
Directive 2010/84/EC establishes the legal requirements for submission of PSURs and introduces the principle of EU single assessment with a recommendation from the Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) for substances authorised in more than one Member State. A step-wise approach has been taken to the full implementation of new PSUR procedures introduced by the pharmacovigilance legislation and the EMA Management Board decided that the implementation of single assessment for substances only included in NAPs will not start in 2013 and that the work sharing project would continue in its current framework until the single assessment procedure is introduced for NAPs. It was subsequently decided that the single assessment procedure would be introduced for procedures that have data lock points (DLP) after 31st August 2014.
PSUR Work Sharing and Nationally Authorised Products with a DLP Synchronised
The Periodic Safety Update Report Work Sharing (PSUR WS) and Synchronisation lists were compiled with input from the Pharmacovigilance Working Party (retired in July 2012), and representatives from the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA), Association of the European Self-Medication Industry (AESGP) and European Generic medicines Association (EGA). They have been maintained by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) since 2008 taking into account comments received from Marketing Authorisation Holders (MAHs) and National Competent Authorities (NCAs).
The PSUR Work Sharing list was updated, merged with some substances from the synchronisation list and renamed 'List of substances under PSUR Work Sharing scheme and other substances contained in Nationally Authorised Products with DLP synchronised' in order to accommodate the outcome of the December 2012 EMA Management Board meeting not to start the EU single assessment until further notice of PSURs for active substances and combinations of active substances contained only in nationally authorised medicinal products (NAPs).
Such active substances and combinations of active substances originally included in the List of Union reference dates and frequency of submission of Periodic Safety Update Reports (also called EURD list and defined as the tool to allow for the EU single assessment of PSURs in Article 107c paragraphs (4) and (7) of Directive 2001/83/EC as amended) with Data Lock Points (DLPs) between 1 April 2013 and 31 August 2014, were removed from the EURD list and transferred to the new PSUR WS list until they follow the EU single assessment procedure of PSURs.
MAHs are strongly advised to submit their PSURs in accordance with the List of substances under PSUR Work Sharing scheme and other substances contained in Nationally Authorised Products with DLP synchronised which should be legally interpreted as a "coordinated" national request addressed to MAHs in accordance with Article 107c (2) of Directive 2001/83/EC as amended.
- List of substances under PSUR Work Sharing scheme and other substances contained in Nationally Authorised Products with DLP synchronised-Excel [PDF version] (September 2016)
For more details on the legal basis, the consequences for removing the substances concerned from the EURD list and on the changes made to the new PSUR WS list please refer to the document Assessment of Periodic Safety Update Reports for Nationally Authorised Products.
- Assessment of Periodic Safety Update Reports for National Authorised Products Cover note (June 2014)
Update: The Agency intends to start the single assessment of active substances contained only in nationally authorised medicines by the end of 2014.
The "List of substances under PSUR Work Sharing scheme and other substances contained in Nationally Authorised Products with DLP synchronised" should continue to be followed until the substances and combination of active substances included have passed the published data lock point (DLP). Subsequently, the EURD list should be followed.

Questions and answers

Lauren Holifield can't help it. Like most hitters, Holifield's eyes get wide as a Cheshire cat's when she gets a pitch she can jack.
CALEDONIA -- The third chapter of the Lowndes County high school football rivalry series kicks off at 7:30 tonight when Caledonia visits New Hope. Caledonia coach Ricky Kendrick hopes the latest installment plays out a lot like the first chapter (a victory against West Lowndes) and not like the second one (a double-overtime loss to Heritage Academy).
The unbeaten Columbus High School football team will put its season-opening three-game win streak on the line at 7:30 tonight when it takes on Louisville at Hinze Stadium. Local broadcasts will be available WMSV-FM (91.1) with Anthony Craven and WLSM-FM (107.1) with Bart Gregory.
Chris Chambless believes. The West Point High School football coach believed in his team after a season-opening loss to South Panola. That confidence didn't waver after an overtime loss at Columbus the following week.
ABERDEEN -- Staying positive is the only way Aberdeen High School football coach Chris Duncan knows. While some around the state and in Aberdeen might be scratching their heads wondering how a team many pegged as the Class 3A state champion before the season started can be 2-2.
The next three days will play a part in the future of the Mississippi State women's basketball team. Today through Saturday, the Lady Bulldogs will play host to Heritage Academy senior Rachel Hollivay, Hattiesburg High School senior Tiaria Griffin, and two other players. Hollivay and Griffin are ranked No. 12 and No. 93, respectively, in the Class of 2012 by Dan Olson's Collegiate Girls Report. ESPN's HoopGurlz has Hollivay ranked No. 8 nationally and Griffin No. 46 at her position, shooting guard.
The Starkville Academy football team passed all of its tests in the first part of the 2011 regular season. At 7 p.m. Friday, the stakes will get much higher when unbeaten Starkville Academy begins Class AAA, District 2 play at Hillcrest Christian in Jackson.
The Oak Hill Academy football team continues to produce the hard work necessary to become winners. Now, the Raiders will try to break into the win column.
The Lamar County High School football team will travel Friday night to Red Bay (Ala.) for a showdown between the last two unbeatens in the Alabama High School Activities Association's Class 2A, Region 8. Each squad enters the contest at 3-0 and 2-0 in region play.
The message is simple: It's time to be consistent. While it's never easy to come off a loss, coach Brad Butler feels the timing is ideal for the Heritage Academy football team to hit its stride. Not only will the Patriots have the motivation to get back on the winning track, he feels the team also will be geared up for the start of Mississippi Association of Independent Schools Class AAA, Division II, District 1 play at 7 p.m. Friday when it takes on Lee Academy.
STARKVILLE -- The Starkville Academy girls soccer team dropped a 1-0 heartbreaker to Jackson Prep on Tuesday afternoon at the Starkville Sportsplex. With the victory, Prep improved to 9-1-1 and 3-0 in Class AAA, District 3 play, while Starkville Academy fell to 4-3 and 1-2. Coupled with a 5-0 district loss to Presbyterian Christian last month, Starkville Academy needs a strong second-half run to have a chance at winning the district title or earning a playoff berth.
While it may have taken a while to get to the end, the Heritage Academy volleyball team found the wait was worth it. Heritage Academy turned back Columbus High 3-2 in a spirited, back-and-forth two-hour tussle Tuesday night at the Stark Recreation Center on the Mississippi University for Women campus. In its first season of volleyball competition, Heritage Academy completed a season-sweep of Columbus with the 26-24, 26-24, 17-25, 23-25, 15-11 victory.
MACON -- Leaders set the example, even when they're a little dinged up. Through four games, Cole Newman and Drew Pearson haven't had much time off to heal the assortment of nagging ailments and bumps and bruises they have acquired in a series of nail-biting victories.
MACON -- Not counting the injuries to his team, Tyrone Shorter is feeling a lot better. The longtime assistant now in his second season as head coach of the Noxubee County High School football team can talk a little more confidently about his defense now that he is beginning to see more effort like the stingy Tigers of old.
The New Hope High School slow-pitch softball team is looking for a little more focus and consistency as it enters the stretch run of the 2011 season. Despite being sluggish Monday afternoon, the Trojans still had more than enough to beat Starkville 21-2 in a four-inning Class 5A, Region 1 contest at the Starkville High complex.
MARIETTA -- Jason Davis rushed for 194 yards and three touchdowns Friday night to lead the Immanuel Christian football team to a 42-8 victory against New Site.
Columbus High School football coach Tony Stanford feared a letdown following his team's win against West Point last week. Coming off the rivalry win, his undefeated team jumped back into another rivalry game against New Hope. To add to his nervousness, he said the Falcons didn't have a good week of preparation for the Trojans. The Falcons never looked in danger of being upset on their home field Friday, rolling to a 33-0 win to remain undefeated.
WEST POINT -- The Starkville High School football team handed West Point its only defeat before the Green Wave marched to their second Class 5A state championship in a row last season. West Point made amends for that setback Friday night with a dominating defensive performance in a 33-12 victory at McCallister Field.
MACON -- It's one thing to step forward when you have a week to prepare knowing you'll be without your starting quarterback. It's an entirely different proposition to lose a starting running back a day before a game and have to scrap your game plan, especially against an athletic and experienced defense. But champions emerge when their teammates need them.
CALEDONIA -- An opportunistic defense and a relentless ground attack proved to be the winning combination at Homecoming here Friday as the Caledonia High School football team tossed a 24-0 shutout at the East Webster Wolverines.

Yeah, I've found them to be the best driving shoes too. Nice thin soles and they are not too broad either.
Superb shoes...
Lots of feedback through the soles...and when they are old and worn in (like yours...and like mine), they fit sooooo well.
I have a well worn pair of Kart Kats too...similar but with velcro closure...even lazier to fasten up...and just as good to drive in.
Nothing else comes close.
