Listening to Lou Reed: 'Street Hassle'
On Fridays I'm posting my thoughts on Lou Reed's solo albums, one album at a time in chronological order of release. Today's post on "Street Hassle" goes out to Twitter friend @KateVenne
Fr. Robert Boyle, the late Marquette University English professor, used to assign students papers in which they took a single word from a story or a piece of a novel and explain how the word worked in that literature. In essence, he asked us to use the word as a portal into the whole work, or as a fractal that somehow embodied that piece of literature. »Read Full Blog Post
New breed of woman blossoms in 'Flappers'
Set against a backdrop of the Jazz Age, Judith Mackrell's "Flappers: Six Women of a Dangerous Generation" explores the lives of creative, prominent women who, after the devastation of World War I, took advantage of the era's "spirited audacity" to "reinvent themselves."
"The war had delivered voting rights and jobs to many, and it had started to redraw new social maps," writes Mackrell. A new breed of women emerged with the credo: "to live as I liked, always and to die in my own way." »Read Full Article

'Mrs. Lincoln's Rival' looks at a woman who tackled a unique role
No contemporary figure quite compares to Kate Chase Sprague, the protagonist of Jennifer Chiaverini's historical novel "Mrs. Lincoln's Rival." Social mores and the opportunities available to women have changed too much over the past century and a half. But imagine for a moment a widowed Bill Clinton campaigning for president, with his teenage daughter Chelsea as his secret consigliere, and you'll begin to grasp something of Chase Sprague's unusual role in American history.
Previously best known for her Elm Creek Quilts series, Madison novelist Chiaverini began a sequence of popular historical novels set during the Civil War last year with "Mrs. Lincoln's Dressmaker," based on Elizabeth Keckley, a free black businesswoman who became a confidante to Mary Todd Lincoln, and continued with "The Spymistress," inspired by Elizabeth Van Lew, who spied for the Union behind Confederate lines in Richmond, Va. In addition to simply being fascinating stories, these novels go a long way in capturing the texture of life for women, rich and poor, black and white, in those perilous years. »Read Full Article(1)

Approaching 40 years in films and television, the flame still burns -- and brighter than ever -- for acclaimed Scottish funnyman Billy Connolly, who continues to defy age with his youthful spirit and wit.
Without question, Connolly is at the top of his game in director Dustin Hoffman's "Quartet," in a role, oddly enough, that finds a group of performers in fear of losing their edge as they hit their 70s and 80s as they settle into a home for retired opera singers and classical musicians in the English countryside.
Connolly is certainly no stranger to films with a musical theme. In 1998, he played a lovable road manager who tries to hold together a group of conflicting '70s hard rock personalities who reunite 25 years after an ugly break-up in the vastly under-appreciated comedy "Still Crazy."
But while film audiences have had the opportunity to see the plights of aging rockers now and again, "Quartet" -- which also stars Maggie Smith, Michael Gambon, Tom Courtenay and Pauline Collins -- keys in on a dynamic seldom heard about, much less seen.
"You never wonder what happens to the classical people when the spotlight goes out, because the rock 'n' roll people and the pop and middle-of-the-road people are covered by the news, but classical people aren't," Connolly told me in an interview Thursday. "The news thinks that nobody's interested in classical people unless you're Maria Callas or someone in love with some great, famous millionaire or shipping heir. Then they'll write about you. Usually, they're just forgotten."
Connolly plays Wilf Bond, an opera singer who is in the home after suffering from a minor stroke. Suave and handsome, Wilf takes every opportunity to hustle the female staff and fellow residents of the retirement home with his suggestive, playful charm.
Oddly enough, it was Connolly's youthful looks and charm that created a stumbling block in getting his role in "Quartet," considering the "residents" are in their 70s and 80s.
"That was the trouble Dustin had in casting me. He always wanted me, but he thought I was too young looking, compared to all the others who are haggard and ugly and worn," Connolly, 70, deadpanned. "That Tom Courtenay, what a mess. That Michael Gambon, how he manages to stand upright and speak is a mystery to everyone -- so old and decrepit. And Maggie Smith, give me a break, you know?"
Connolly, who actually got his start as an entertainer playing banjo before becoming a full-time comedian (he used both talents opening up for Elton John for some U.S. gigs in 1976), said there's a definite crossover of those sensibilities when he takes on role: especially one like "Quartet" which for him is all about music, comedy and ultimately, timing.
"It's all down to rhythm and allowing the other person to getting in the same rhythm as you or getting into the same rhythm as them," Connolly explained. "You have to do it without thinking about it, though. If you do, it looks clodhopperish. If you just let it happen, it happens beautifully."
Connolly is thrilled about Hoffman's subtle directorial debut in "Quartet," and he believes the new kid on the director's block has a future behind the camera if he so chooses.
"He's outstanding. He has this lovely feature -- he presumes that you know what you're doing," Connolly said. "So the first take is your first rehearsal. You come on, you do your thing and then he and tweaks it. He doesn't tell you how to come on and what to do. He'll give basic stuff, like 'You're down in that shed doing that scene,' but you choose where you're going to be, where you're going to sit and where you're going to stand and you get on with it. It's a joyous process. Plus, he loves it when you improvise."
At the center of "Quartet" is the conflict four opera singers (Connolly, Smith, Courtenay and Collins) run into as an annual concert at the home to celebrate the birthday of legendary composer Giuseppe Verdi approaches. The problem is, Smith's character -- the legendary diva, Jean Horton -- fights off the idea of performing because she doesn't want to "insult the memory of who she was."
Connolly said his attitude is just the opposite in real life. Driven by eternal youth, he believes his best work is still ahead of him.
"I refuse to grow up. I'll grow old, definitely, and happily, but I'll never grow up," Connolly said. "That's where all the danger is, this growing up bulls---, where you start wearing beige and slack-arse trousers, dressing like your parents and doing that old s---, like frowning on the young and tat-tatting. Bugger that."
Connolly is without question keeping youthful these days given his screen choices. Hot off of "Quartet" and his voice role as King Fergus in the Oscar-nominated animated feature "Brave," Connolly is still filming his role as the dwarf Dain Ironfoot for the next two installments of director Peter Jackson's "The Hobbit."
"The character is wonderful. He's the most badass guy you'll ever seen in your life," Connolly enthused. "He rides a pig and uses an ax to fight with. He's the most frightening-looking man you'll ever see. He's brilliant."
Connolly sings praises of Hoffman, 'Quartet'

Modern treatments can help patients with many kinds of cancer survive for years or even beat the disease completely.
Even if you know that, hearing a doctor tell you that you have "the big C" can shock you and leave you feeling scared, confused and unsure what to do next.
MedicineNet.com has a list of questions that you should consider asking, including what kinds of treatment options exist and if you should get a second opinion.
You can also ask about how the different treatments might effect you and what your insurance is likely to cover.
When you think a doctor might tell about cancer -- for example, after you have gone through some testing -- you should bring someone with you, The Mayo clinic suggests.
That center also says that a second opinion is always reasonable, and that you should consider a National Cancer Institute-designated cancer centers. But it says that there is nothing to be gained from seeing several doctors if the first few you see concur.
Other experts advise asking if you will need to curtail normal activities -- including work -- while you go through treatment.
Many experts also note that you must learn what to expect from any treatment. Will it destroy a tumor and return you to full health, or will it merely weaken the cancer and lengthen your life by some amount of time?
Telling Family, Friends
Cancer.org says that every patient must also decide when and what to tell family and friends.
It suggests taking people up on offers to help, rather than just assuming it was said as an empty promise. The organization also suggests keeping up with hobbies and activities as you are able.

Detroit Red Wings Autographed Memorabilia and Collectibles
The Detroit Red Wings are one of the most consistent franchises in all of sports. The franchise has made the playoffs 23 years in a row and in 28 of the past 30 seasons. The team was founded in 1926, and is one of the oldest NHL teams based in the U.S. The Red Wings have won 19 division titles, six conference titles and 11 Stanley Cups, which makes the franchise one of the winningest teams in all of the major sports.
Despite such success, the franchise has also experienced low-points. Between 1967 and 1991, the Red Wings made the playoffs just eight times in 25 years, which was a stark contrast from the period between 1934 and 1966 where they missed the playoffs just four times. During the successful 32-year stretch, the Red Wings won seven Stanley Cups and were consistently among the premier franchises in the NHL.
In 1997, after a 42-year Stanley Cup drought the Red Wings returned to the top of the NHL behind the play of goaltender Mike Vernon and star Igor Larionov. The great core of players led the Red Wings to a Stanley Cup victory over the Philadelphia Flyers, where Vernon earned the Conn Smythe Trophy as the MVP of the playoffs.
The Red Wings successfully repeated as champions the next season after defeating the Washington Capitals in the Stanley Cup Finals. The following season proved to be too much to handle for the Red Wings and their quest to win a third consecutive championship fell short when they lost to the Colorado Avalanche in the Western Conference Semifinals.
After stumbling for a couple of seasons, the Red Wings recaptured the title after an epic run through the 2002 season. Detroit won the most games during the regular season and eventually took down the Carolina Hurricanes in five games to recapture the Stanley Cup. This postseason run marked a huge highlight in the career of Nicklas Lidstrom, who won the Conn Smythe Trophy as the MVP of the playoffs.
The Red Wings entered the 2007-2008 season as perennial championship contenders. They cruised through the season and into the playoffs. Detroit beat the Pittsburgh Penguins in the Finals after Henrik Zetterberg scored the game-winning goal in the deciding game – his play throughout the playoffs earned him the Conn Smythe Trophy. This victory also marked the first time that a team captained by a non-American won the Stanley Cup as superstar Nicklas Lidstrom guided the team throughout the season.
The Red Wings have consistently been one of the most successful franchises in all of hockey, period. All across the U.S. and the world, fans proudly wear their Red Wings gear. After suffering through a 42-year Stanley Cup drought, Detroit has consistently made playoff appearances and reestablished themselves as a perennial championship contender and that's why investing in Red Wings memorabilia is such an easy decision. With a list of legendary players like Ted Lindsay, Steve Yzerman, Nicklas Lidstrom and Henrik Zetterberg there isn't a shortage of available classic Red Wings memorabilia. Any piece of Red Wings memorabilia would be a great addition to any NHL or sports collection considering the franchises storied history and ability to produce some of the greatest players in the game's history.
- Henrik Zetterberg Signed Pucks: Henrik Zetterberg is one of the more decorated players in the NHL. Zetterberg won the Stanley Cup in 2008 with the Detroit Red Wings while also winning the Conn Smythe Trophy as the MVP of the 2008 playoffs. Zetterberg is also a two-time gold medalist after his teams took the top honors in the 2006 Ice Hockey World Championships and '06 Winter Olympics making Henrik Zetterberg memorabilia very valuable. Since Zetterberg is one of the best scorers in the NHL today, fans and collectors should look to invest in a Henrik Zetterberg signed hockey puck considering his autograph is consistently rising in value. With a Henrik Zetterberg autographed puck, fans and collectors can add a very unique collectible to their collection while showing their Red Wings pride.
- Autographed Nicklas Lidstrom Jerseys: Nicklas Lidstrom is a legendary player who played his entire 20-year NHL career with the Detroit Red Wings. Lidstrom won four Stanley Cups during his lengthy and successful career while winning the James Norris Memorial Trophy, awarded to the best defensive player in the NHL, seven times. Die-hard Detroit fans should look to honor the legacy of one of the greatest defenseman in NHL history with a signed Nicklas Lidstrom jersey. With a Nicklas Lidstrom autographed jersey, fans and collectors will gain a centerpiece for their collection that celebrates a historic legend of the game and holds ever-increasing value. Featuring the official Detroit colors and design, Red Wings jerseys with a Nicklas Lidstrom autograph are an absolute must-have for fans and a solid investment for collectors.
- Steve Yzerman Signed Photos: A member of the Hockey Hall of Fame, Steve Yzerman played his entire career with the illustrious Detroit Red Wings. An extremely popular athlete within Detroit, Yzerman was named captain of the Red Wings at the age of 21 and continued to serve as the leader of the team for the next two decades. Yzerman led the Red Wings to three Stanley Cup wins during his career while providing fans with countless memories. As a Red Wings fan, you can preserve the franchise icon's legacy by adding a signed Steve Yzerman photo to your sports room or collection.

On Tap Today: An unsung director gets his due
Have you ever heard of Rouben Mamoulian? I thought I had a pretty thorough database of important directors stored up in my brain, but this name eluded me until today.
But reading just a bit about his life and career accomplishments, it's clear that he deserves his due. One of his first claims to fame was directing a theatrical production of "Porgy" featuring an African-American cast -- in 1926. He was also the director that brought "Oklahoma!" to Broadway -- leading to a career in cinema that included directing Hollywood's first Technicolor feature, "Becky Sharp," in 1935, and ahead-of-their time techniques including overlapping dialogue. A native of what was Russian-ruled Georgia, Mamoulian also witnessed the Bolshevik Revolution -- and he was targeted during the Hollywood blacklist era in the '50s. »Read Full Blog Post

Luke Bryan dances up a party
Anyone wondering where Milwaukee's loudest party was Wednesday night only needed to listen for the deafening screams that emerged from the Marcus Amphitheater every time Luke Bryan swiveled his hips.
As the silhouette of country music's southern-fried frat boy appeared above the stage, the capacity crowd erupted. With fists pumping and beers and voices raised, this audience was primed to celebrate. Across a ready-made set of summer melodies and feel-good vibes, the Georgia native was happy to oblige. »Read Full Article

Exclusive Video: Alex Clare performs 'Three Hearts,' 'Too Close' on a paddleboat at Summerfest
British singer-songwriter Alex Clare took a few minutes before his headlining show at Summerfest tonight to give an acoustic performance for Tap Pre-Show. Instead of cramming into a noisy room backstage, Clare wanted to do something fun. Looking for some nice scenery and a quiet location, he recommended the paddleboats right near the U.S. Cellular Connection Stage, where he will perform at 10 p.m.
After signing some waivers and snapping a few photos with fans passing by, we went out in paddleboats and recorded in the middle of the lagoon. This is the second take, where he performs "Three Hearts." »Read Full Blog Post

Milwaukee music stalwarts join forces on 'Plays Well With Others'
Local electric guitar whiz Greg Koch called in a bunch of favors for the Greg Koch Band's latest album, "Plays Well With Others." Guest contributors range from New Orleans funk musician Jon Cleary to Paul Barrere from acclaimed genre-blending rock band Little Feat to Leonard Cohen's musical director, Roscoe Beck. There's also an appearance from blues guitarist and singer Joe Bonamassa, who is so popular he sold out the 2,500-seat Riverside Theater this year.
But the most important friend on Koch's new album is closer to home: John Sieger, frontman for local Americana band Semi-Twang. "Plays Well With Others" marks the first time these two local music heavyweights, who have 24 albums between them, have joined forces. Koch wrote the bulk of the music, while Sieger handled the lyrics and sang on all the tracks except one. "I got possessive," Sieger said, half-jokingly. They talked about the collaboration in advance of their show Friday night at Summerfest. »Read Full Article

Playing with Barbie dolls could limit how girls view their career choices.
That's according to an experiment conducted by Aurora M. Sherman, an associate professor in the School of Psychological Science at Oregon State University.
A group of 37 girls ages 4 to 7 participated in the study, with each of them randomly assigned either a fashion Barbie, a Barbie dressed as a doctor, or a Mrs. Potato Head. After a few minutes, the girls were asked about possible careers.
Sherman reported girls who played with Barbie thought they could do fewer jobs than boys. Those with Mrs. Potato Head thought they could do about the same.
The findings were published Wednesday in the journal Sex Roles.

Anyone seen these before?
Those 'SCR-0' look like some sort of catalog numbers which makes me suspect they're bootlegs.
Posted 30 April 2013 - 04:51 AM
Have we missed the band wagon? Or are these straight bootleg?!
Posted 30 April 2013 - 07:42 AM
Or....they could be licensed for a special limited edition release. I'm not saying you're wrong, but with labels like http://www.getondown.com/ and http://slice-of-spice.com/ doing special products of the sort, who is to say there isn't another player on the field that we're not aware of yet? I already know of one such label that's going to be launching next year and with a notable Angel Investor backing it too.
I see where you're coming from, but the thing is that those labels cater to a very niche audience so they usually spam the shit out of most of the blogs whenever they do drop something. Having seen or heard absolutely nothing about these tapes on teh Internetz makes me think they're bootlegs.
Goodz: Where did you find that pic?

Posted 30 April 2013 - 08:51 AM
Creating awareness of such product is now called spam? Man the internet/underground hip hop audience have a very strange way at looking at things these days. Last I heard, it was called promotions and marketing and Spam was unwanted email that you never subscribed to. Not knocking you personally, but I'm glad multiple blogs are spreading the word of such music, because then it increases my interest in the music their pushing and if I like what I hear I support it, if not I just keep it moving.
I don't mean spam in the literal sense. I mean that in the way they all send the same promotional email to all the blogs and in actuality the blogs spam the readers. They don't offer much insight beyond the usual boilerplate description that every other blog copies and pastes for the sole purpose of hoping they get you to visit their sites. noz over at cocaineblunts has talked about this fact before. If I'm being critical of anyone Pete its the blogs not the labels, I've got no problem with (most) marketing and promoting.
Posted 30 April 2013 - 11:33 AM
Hence what the top tape is titled.
Honestly if Stones Throw were to put out more tapes I would cop all of them.
This year already so far I've copped 6 new tapes.
Roc Marciano - Marcberg
Destruct - The Vibe Tape
Timeless Truth - Brugal & Presidentes
Inspectah Deck 7L & Esoteric - CZARFACE
Jonwayne - Cassette 2
Ghostface Killah - 12 Reasons To Die The Brown Tape.
is 2013 the return of the hip hop tape?
on a sidenote anyone remember the Stones Throw 8 tracks?

Nearly 60 romance authors coming to Milwaukee for fan event April 26
Barbara Vey's Reader Appreciation luncheon will bring nearly 60 authors of romance novels and related genres from around the country to Milwaukee on April 26 for a reader-centric, fan-friendly event.
With a free Friday evening Q&A session the night before, you could even call it a Romance-con. But Vey's lineup takes a big-tent view of the topic, from Regency romances to erotica in the mode of "Fifty Shades of Grey." The roster even includes some authors whose work can't be classified as romance, such as Jason Mott, whose debut novel "The Returned" (Harlequin MIRA) inspired ABCE's new TV series "Resurrection." »Read Full Article(3)

I'm reading and commenting on a story from The Library of America's 'John Updike: The Collected Stories' each Wednesday until I finish the collection or give up.
"Home," in this story and some of the other stories John Updike wrote in his 20s (and that were collected in "The Olinger Stories"), is definitely where the ambiguity is. »Read Full Blog Post

"It is an interesting and somewhat macabre parlor game to play at a large gathering of one's acquaintances: to speculate who in a showdown would go Nazi. By now, I think I know. I have gone through the experience many times—in Germany, in Austria, and in France. I have come to know the types: the born Nazis, the Nazis whom democracy itself has created, the certain-to-be fellow-travelers. And I also know those who never, under any conceivable circumstances, would become Nazis."

No. 1 Gonzaga tops Loyola Marymount, 66-48
LAS VEGAS Elias Harris had 21 points and eight rebounds to lead No. 1 Gonzaga over Loyola Marymount 66-48 on Saturday night in the semifinals of the West Coast conference tournament.
Bidding for a top seed in the NCAAs, the Bulldogs (30-2) advanced to play for the league championship Monday night against the winner of Saturdays late semifinal between Saint Marys and San Diego.
Challenged in the first half by a team that went 1-15 in WCC play this season, Gonzaga turned up the defensive intensity after halftime and opened the second half on a 19-5 run to seize control.
Kevin Pangos scored 14 points, and Kelly Olynyk had eight points and eight rebounds for the Zags.
Anthony Ireland led Loyola Marymount (11-23) with 19 points.
Gonzaga, which won the WCC regular-season title for the 12th time in the last 13 years, is trying to reclaim the tournament crown Saint Marys snatched from the Bulldogs last season with a 78-74 overtime win in the championship game.
No. 3 DUKE 69, NORTH CAROLINA 53
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. Seth Curry hit his first seven shots during Dukes torrid start, helping the Blue Devils jump to a big lead and beat rival North Carolina.
Curry finished with 20 points, while Mason Plumlee turned in his best performance in a month with 23 points and 13 rebounds. That duo provided Duke (27-4, 14-4 Atlantic Coast Conference) all the punch it needed to earn a season sweep of the Tar Heels.
Duke scored the games first 14 points, never let UNC (22-9, 12-6) closer than nine and led by 25 points after halftime.
BAYLOR 81, No. 4 KANSAS 58
WACO, Texas Pierre Jackson had 28 points and 10 assists as Baylor finished the regular season with a victory that kept Kansas from winning the outright Big 12 title.
Cory Jefferson added 25 points for Baylor (18-13, 9-9 Big 12), the 6-foot-9 junior forward combining his usual powerful dunks with his first three career 3-pointers.
Even after its worst loss in seven years, Kansas (26-5, 14-4) will still be the No. 1 seed for next weeks conference tournament in Kansas City, and now has at least a share of the last nine Big 12 regular-season titles. The Jayhawks had won the previous four outright, but have to share this one with rival Kansas State.
Ben McLemore had 23 points for Kansas, whose only lead came when the freshman made a layup only 5 seconds into the game.
No. 5 GEORGETOWN 61, No. 17 SYRACUSE 39
WASHINGTON Georgetown emphatically ended its Big East rivalry against Syracuse, wrapping up the regular-season title by holding the Orange to the lowest scoring output of their time in the conference.
On an afternoon when Otto Porter Jr. didnt make a field goal until the second half, Georgetown used stifling defense to dominate Syracuse.
Porter finished with 10 points, but the national player of the year candidate contributed in plenty of other ways, as usual, with eight rebounds and seven assists.
Markel Starks scored 19, and freshman DVauntes Smith-Rivera had 15 points, five rebounds and five assists for the Hoyas (24-5, 14-4), who will be the No. 1 seed at the Big East tournament next week in New York.
Syracuse (23-8, 11-7), which had been hoping for a double-bye in the tournament, was led by Michael Carter-Williams 17 points. But the Orange shot only 32 percent from the field, including 1 for 11 on 3-point tries.
The Hoyas have won 12 of their last 13 games, including two wins against Syracuse.
No. 6 MIAMI 62, CLEMSON 49
CORAL GABLES, Fla. Down to its third try and last chance, Miami came through.
Kenny Kadji scored a season-high 23 points to help the Hurricanes win the Atlantic Coast Conference championship outright by beating Clemson.
Kadji also grabbed 12 rebounds and Miami (24-6, 15-3 Atlantic Coast Conference) clinched its first outright mens basketball league title after being foiled in consecutive losses to Duke and Georgia Tech. The Hurricanes tied the school record for victories set in 2001-02, when they went 24-8, and improved to 14-1 at home in their regular-season finale.
No. 8 LOUISVILLE 73, No. 24 NOTRE DAME 57
LOUISVILLE, Ky. Gorgui Dieng had 20 points, 11 rebounds and five blocks to help Louisville earn a share of the Big East Conference title with a victory over Notre Dame.
Peyton Siva added 13 points and five assists in his final home game for the Cardinals (26-5, 14-4 Big East), who finished the regular season tied for first place with Georgetown and Marquette. Louisville receives a bye into Thursdays quarterfinals at the Big East tournament, where coach Rick Pitinos team will defend its 2012 championship.
When these teams met a month ago at Notre Dame, they played five overtimes before the Fighting Irish won 104-101 in the longest regular-season game in Big East history. In fact, five of the last six and six of the past eight matchups between the schools went to overtime before Louisville took charge on Saturday.
Dieng and Siva were honored before the game as part of Louisvilles senior day festivities. Dieng, a junior center from Senegal, is expected to enter the NBA draft after the season.
Garrick Sherman led Notre Dame (23-8, 11-7) with 14 points.
No. 13 OKLAHOMA ST 76, No. 9 KANSAS STATE 70
STILLWATER, Okla. LeBryan Nash scored 24 points, Marcus Smart added 21 and Oklahoma State beat Kansas State.
The Wildcats (25-6, 14-4 Big 12), who came into the day tied with rival Kansas for the conference lead, still ended up sharing their first regular-season conference title since 1977 in the Big Eight when the Jayhawks lost at Baylor later Saturday.
KENTUCKY 61, No. 11 FLORIDA 57
LEXINGTON, Ky. Julius Mays two free throws with 9.4 seconds remaining capped Kentuckys comeback from a seven-point deficit for a victory over Florida that boosted its NCAA tournament prospects.
Archie Goodwins 16 points led the way in a game that Wildcats coach John Calipari described Friday as do or die for his defending national champions. Kentucky needed a signature win to bolster its hopes for an at-large NCAA tournament bid.
Kentucky (21-10, 12-6) could still use another win or two in next weeks Southeastern Conference tournament to help its chances. The Wildcats responded with their biggest gut check of the season, outscoring the Gators 11-0 over the final 7:28 for their second win over a Top 25 opponent.
Erik Murphys 17 points led Florida (24-6, 14-4), which missed its final 11 shots.
AIR FORCE 89, No. 12 NEW MEXICO 88
AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. Todd Fletcher hit a 3-pointer with 3.5 seconds remaining to lift Air Force over New Mexico.
Tony Snells 3-point attempt from the right wing clanged off the iron as time expired, and Falcons fans stormed the court to celebrate the programs first win over a top 12 team. Fletchers clutch shot came seconds after New Mexicos Kendall Williams missed the back end of a 1-and-1.
The loss snapped an eight-game winning streak for the Lobos (26-5, 13-3 Mountain West) and marked the second win over a Top 25 opponent for Air Force (17-12, 8-8) this season. The Falcons finished 13-2 at Clune Arena.
No. 15 MARQUETTE 69, ST. JOHNS 67, OT
NEW YORK Vander Blues driving layup dropped through as the overtime buzzer sounded, giving Marquette a victory over St. Johns and a share of the Big East regular-season championship, its first title since joining the conference in 2005-06.
Blue had 16 points, including four of Marquettes six in overtime, for the Golden Eagles (23-7, 14-4 Big East), who finished second in the Big East last season and were picked seventh in the preseason conference poll in November. This was their fourth straight win and sixth in seven games, and the Golden Eagles get a bye to the quarterfinals on Thursday.
No. 16 SAINT LOUIS 78, La SALLE 54
ST. LOUIS Dwayne Evans had 16 points and 17 rebounds, and Saint Louis hit 17 of its 20 shots in the second half to clinch a share of the Atlantic 10 title with a victory over La Salle.
Kwamain Mitchell had 19 points and six assists on Senior Day for Saint Louis (24-6, 13-3 A-10), which won its first conference title since 1970-71 in the Missouri Valley. Rob Loe matched his career best with 20 points, hitting all seven shots, and the Billikens shot 58 percent overall, one game after shooting a season-worst 30 percent in an overtime loss at Xavier.
Saint Louis has won 12 of 13 and can take the title outright if VCU loses at Temple on Sunday.
No. 18 ARIZONA 73, ARIZONA STATE 58
TUCSON, Ariz. Nick Johnson scored 17 points, Solomon Hill added 12 in his final home game and Arizona earned a first-round bye in next weeks Pac-12 tournament with a rout of rival Arizona State.
A late-season slide left Arizona (24-6, 12-6 Pac-12) needing a win or some help to avoid playing next Wednesday in the conference tournament. The Wildcats took care of it themselves, building a 15-point lead in the first half and answering a big second-half run by the Sun Devils with one of their own.
UTAH 72, No. 19 OREGON 62
SALT LAKE CITY Jason Washburn had 20 points and 13 rebounds, and Jarred DuBois added 15 points and several key baskets down the stretch to propel Utah past Oregon.
Jordan Loveridge and Brandon Taylor chipped in 14 points apiece for the Utes (13-17, 5-13), who won consecutive Pac-12 games for the first time since joining the league. It also marked the first time Utah beat a ranked Pac-12 opponent in league play.
No. 20 PITTSBURGH 81, DePAUL 66
ROSEMONT, Ill. J.J. Moore scored 21 points off the bench and Pittsburgh shot a school-record 72 percent to beat DePaul in the Panthers last Big East regular-season game.
The next stop for surging Pittsburgh is its final Big East tournament at Madison Square Garden in New York. The Panthers (24-7, 12-6), who will move into the Atlantic Coast Conference next season, are the No. 4 seed and receive a double-bye into Thursdays quarterfinals.
Senior guard Tray Woodall added 18 points for Pitt, which has won 11 of its last 14 games and six of eight on the road.
No. 23 UCLA 61, WASHINGTON 54
SEATTLE Shabazz Muhammad scored 21 points, Larry Drew II came up with another huge shot against Washington, and UCLA clinched the Pac-12 Conference regular-season title with a win over the Huskies.
UCLA earned its third regular-season crown under coach Ben Howland. The Bruins won the title outright after Oregon lost at Utah.
The Bruins lost control of the conference race when they were beaten at Washington State on Thursday, but there were plenty of hugs and handshakes to go around after winning in Seattle for the first time since 2004.
Muhammad scored 14 in the second half and helped UCLA (23-8, 13-5 Pac-12) rally from a four-point deficit with 5 minutes remaining.
Scott Suggs had 14 points, but Washington (17-14, 9-9) scored just two points over the final 5 minutes. Leading scorer C.J. Wilcox shot just 3 of 13 for eight points.
Jordan Adams added 17 points for the Bruins, who avoided being swept in the state of Washington for the first time since 1993.
No. 25 MEMPHIS 86, UAB 71

Jackson also had six steals.
Jordan Swing led the Blazers (15-16, 7-9) with 19 points despite hitting only one of his six shots from 3-point range. Rod Rucker scored 16.MORE IN Sports WireOXON HILL, Md.

Nostalgia is a vicious mindset—one that makes the reminiscing mind longing for days past. In the entertainment industry, musing retroactively can be especially powerful with the source of such past-longing being right in front of the ruminator—an electronic landmark from two decades ago.
And, given the aforementioned industry's obsession with rehashing the past in a nicer package—this exercise is seemingly more
Dusting off the Nintendo 64, the Super Nintendo, the Sega Genesis, or the Sony Playstation; RSVLTS has come to the following conclusion—some games are simply too awesome to be trapped within the confines of their primitive technology.
Hence, the gaming industry has a unique opportunity to make the past more tangible. But, what the ten best opportunities? Well, RSVLTS is here to countdown the top 10 Retro Games that deserve a full remake—not just an HD re-master.
10. Dark Cloud
Released for the Playstation 2 in 2000, Dark Cloud can be seen as one of the forgotten gems on one of the greatest consoles to ever serve as the link between the real and virtual world.
Armed with an arm-placed stone that can save the victims of a harrowing attack by an evil genie, the protagonist embarked on an epic dungeon-crawling quest that allows the player to craft unique weapons and recruit allies with different abilities.
Largely ahead of its time, many of the mechanics on Dark Cloud would be upgraded on the hardware of the Eighth Generation consoles.
9. Gauntlet Legends
An arcade-based Hack and Slash game that was released before the genre became tiresome, Gauntlet Legends was ahead of its time in the sense of genre-blending—a game that took many role playing elements and applied them to the action genre.
With modern special effects, the powers each character has in the game would come to life with stellar results.
8. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3
The Tony Hawk's Pro Skater franchise was one of the most enjoyable brands in sports gaming history. Likewise, its third installment—appropriately titled Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3—was the series' most noteworthy game.
With a fantastic soundtrack that blends Punk Rock, Hip Hop, Metal, and Alternative Rock; a Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 would renew interest in the Tony Hawk franchise as whole. Simultaneously, it would allow players to skateboard as Darth Maul and Wolverine one more time.
7. Tenchu: Stealth Assassins
There has been a lacking of ninja games in recent years—the only notable example being Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, which is a more of a flashy action game featuring a ninjas as its protagonist.
But, games featuring legitimate ninja stealth action have been scarce. And, with the latest installment of the Tenchu series being the forgettable Tenchu Z, there is a seeming need for the once-renowned series to reestablish itself.
6. Double Dragon
There have been remakes of Double Dragon, but most of them have been poorly reviewed downloadable affairs.
But, for hardcore gamers, Double Dragon was the undisputed king of the Third Generation consoles. And, given the fact that of the action takes place in a post-apocalyptic future, Billy (not to be confused with the misspelling "Bimmy") and Jimmy Lee would be a great fit on the Eighth Generation consoles.
5. Legend of Dragoon
If someone made a game where you could control half human-half dragon hybrids, would you want to play it?
Well, assuming you said yes, then Legend of Dragoon—a cult favorite on the Sony Playstation—would be a game that you would enjoy. But, when playing it, the technology is undoubtedly dated.
Hence, a full reboot of the game—or possibly a sequel—would renew interest in the series and the RPG genre as a whole.
4. Star Fox 64
While there was a sequel to this game, it failed to capture what made the Nintendo 64 incarnation classic. And, it was mostly devoid of Arwings.
As long as they'd eschew constant commands from Peppy to "do a barrel roll", then Star Fox 64 could thrive on the new hardware of the Eighth Generation consoles.
Ahead of its time in many ways, the air combat game would be supremely exhilarating if it was reborn into gaming modernity.
3. Shenmue
With sandboxes burgeoning in popularity, it would be appropriate to revisit one of the most ambitious gaming projects: Shenmue.
Arguably one of the original free-roaming adventure games, a Shenmue remake would have a Sleeping Dogs fused with Mass Effect dynamic. With a technological makeover, gamers would be able to replay the adventures of Ryo Hazuki—and possibly finally uncover the reason as to why his father was murdered.
2. Perfect Dark 64
During the late '90s, there were few gaming companies that produced better video games than Rareware.
With their other first person shooter classic Goldeneye 007 already receiving a remake, it would be appropriate for Perfect Dark 64 to receive similar treatment.
1. Final Fantasy VII
Final Fantasy VII can be labeled as the first attempt to blend cinema with video games. And, given its status as a classic game—and possibly the premier title for the Sony Playstation—it is clear that a remake is due.
Largely demanded by fans of the Final Fantasy series, Square Enix has made several spin-off titles and a sequel film. In addition, they remade the game's opening trailer to serve as a tech demo for the Playstation 3.
However, fans are still waiting to see Cloud Strife fully realized on modern consoles.

Police are looking for a woman who robbed a grocery store of an undislosed amount of cash, but she left behind a most unusual clue.
Fort Myers police said the woman entered a Publix grocery store Wednesday morning, approached the customer service desk and acted as if she was going to buy a candy bar.
Instead, she handed the clerk a note demanding money and implying she had a weapon.
At one point, the woman covered her mouth and said aloud, "I forgot to put my teeth in today," according to the Fort Myers police website.
The suspect was described as being white and middle-aged, and it's assumed she wears dentures. She left the store with an undisclosed amount of cash in a silver sedan.
Anyone with information about the crime is asked to call Crimestoppers.

But it was lion meat that apparently crossed the line.
A wildlife group and several customers were outraged by the decision, saying an animal in danger of extinction doesn't belong on a menu.
"There is obviously an animal welfare concern and there is a bigger picture," Jeff Kremer with Big Cat Rescue told WFTS. "The bigger concern is where do we, as society, draw the line for what is acceptable for moral and ethical behavior."
Initially, Taco Fusion's owners said if you don't like it, don't eat it.
But they have since decided to stop selling the $35 tacos.
"Thank you all for the feedback regarding the lion meat promotion at Taco Fusion," the owners said on the restaurant's website. "Some of you were supportive, some of you were angry. We listened to everyone and decided to no longer carry lion."
