Live Nation agrees to 12-year pact with U2
By Yinka Adegoke
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Live Nation Inc said on Monday it has reached an agreement for a 12-year global contract to handle the merchandising, digital and branding rights as well as the touring of Irish group U2.
Live Nation has been expanding its business model to develop more far-reaching and deeper relationships with artists beyond just handling their touring.
The deal with U2, one of the world's biggest rock bands, comes just five months after Live Nation announced a comprehensive partnership with pop star Madonna, which included her coveted recording rights.
The company would not reveal financial terms of the U2 deal though analyst David Joyce at Miller Tabak estimated that the deal would "likely be in the $100 million range."
Live Nation said U2 will continue the band's long-term recording and publishing relationship with Universal Music Group, a unit of French media giant Vivendi.
"It's not a do-or-die situation that we have to be involved in the recordings," Live Nation Chairman Michael Cohl said in an interview with Reuters. "We'd prefer to, but it's not always available."
The deal with Madonna, which included the recording rights, was estimated to be worth $120 million over 10 years including a three-album commitment after the artist submits her last album to her current music company, Warner Music Group.
Its partnership with U2 will now include merchandise and licensing rights, sponsorship and strategic alliances, digital rights, fan club/Web sites and other marketing and creative services. Continued...

MEMPHIS - Tennessee freshman Johnny Thornton was defeated Thursday at ITA Southeast Regional Indoor Championships. The Chattanooga native lost to Reid Bourgeois of Southern Miss in straight sets at The Racquet Club of Memphis.
"Johnny's been playing well in practice," Tennessee head coach Michael Fancutt said. "But he has to take his level of play in practice and be able to put that into a match situation."
The Vols have three players slated to begin competition in the main singles draw Friday morning. Memphis native Rawl Martin returns home to face Karim Alayli of Ole Miss, while senior Wade Orr plays Memphis junior Martin Tamla. Both Vol netters would both face top-10 seeds if they win their respective opening-round matches.
Tennessee senior Simon Rea, the No. 12-ranked collegiate singles player in the nation, is the fourth-highest ranked participant in this weekend's event. He is seeded No. 5 and received a bye into the round of 64, which begins play Friday afternoon.
The Southeast Regional-co-hosted by the University of Memphis-is one of nine NCAA Division I men's regional tournaments that will be taking place at sites throughout the nation during the month of October. All singles finalists and doubles champions from the various regional events are granted automatic entry into the main draw of the ITA National Intercollegiate Indoor Championships, which takes place Nov. 6-9 at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Mich.

Immunization is one of the most effective strategies against childhood illness. Yet, despite designation as a national priority, the Healthy People 2020 goal of 90 percent compliance for all vaccines, with the exception of rotovirus (80 percent) and HepA (85 percent), remains unattained. Healthcare providers have been cited as key to achieving a higher overall immunization rate. This makes identifying successful interventions to support effective immunization delivery in private practices and clinics essential.

Concerns About Areas First Recreational Marijuana Retail Shop Opening Soon
The first recreational marijuana shop in our area is getting ready to open in Prosser.
Some of the people living in Prosser had no idea their city was allowing a recreational marijuana shop to open up.
The city staff said Initiative 502 legalized recreational marijuana and they are treating the shop as they would any other business.
Prosser's Peggy Brown has been protesting outside of city hall and in front of a local chiropractor's office. The chiropractor is an investor in the area's first recreational marijuana retail shop, Altitude.
Brown said this shop isn't in the city's best interests.
"We have to much crime in the Valley as it is, we have an exorbitant amount of crime dealing with gangs moving in and I see it as a really bad example to our kids," said Brown.
City planner Steve Zetz said since recreational marijuana is legal in the state, the city of Prosser could be sued if they tried to stop retailers who have gone through the lottery from opening up a shop.
"Permitting and licensing is issued by the state liquor control board, they're the ones issuing licensing, we treat it like any other applicant that applies for retail business," said Zetz.
In January Attorney General Bob Ferguson issued a statement stating cities and counties can ban or regulate marijuana businesses as they see fit.
Zetz said that opinion does not keep the city safe from a lawsuit if they were to ban it.
"We looked at what the Attorney General said however does not mean the city would not be subject to a lawsuit," Zets said. "The Attorney General offered up an opinion."
Brown said they city shouldn't run the government based on fears that they could be sued.
"I don't think that's how you should govern your city," Brown said. "You need to govern by what's best for your citizens including your children."
Local chiropractor Tim Thompson, an investor in Altitude, the recreational marijuana shop said this shop will help regulate marijuana usage and be good for other businesses in town.
"We expect this to bring hundreds if not thousands of people to Prosser every single day not only are they going to be stopping at Altitude our store they're going to utilize the other businesses in town," said Thompson.
Brown doesn't see it that way, and she is upset she didn't have a say in the shop opening until it was too late.
The City Council has set aside some time during their next meeting to hear residents' concerns.
Brown said she will be there to voice her opinion, but doesn't think it will change anything.
"I am not so naïve to think that is anything but throwing a dog a bone," Brown said. "It's already set in stone, they've already got the store going, but they need to be held accountable to their taxpayers and citizens about what they've done and keeping this thing under wraps."

text: UC, police test response to shooting scenario By Rusty Marks September 12, 2012 Story Share Kenny Kemp Deputies with the Kanawha County Sheriff's Department SWAT team rush to Geary Student Union to search for an alleged armed gunman during a training drill Wednesday at the University of Charleston. CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- SWAT teams, police cars and an ambulance converged on the University of Charleston campus Wednesday to practice what they and university staff would do if a gunman showed up on campus and opened fire.UC President Ed Welch said university staff got together with local emergency services providers, law enforcement and training drill planners to set up a scenario to test the school's ability to respond to an active shooter and inform students and parents about the emergency as it unfolded. Planners spent weeks working on the drill to make the scenario as realistic as possible."It's a sad reality that you have to do it," Welch said of the drill. "But it's a dangerous world. College campuses are very open places."Students, faculty and some staff were told well in advance that an emergency scenario would be run on Wednesday, but didn't know when or what kind of emergency it would be. Some staff members -- and Welch himself -- knew only that the scenario would involve an active shooter.But just as no military plan survives first contact with the enemy, planners quickly threw a monkey wrench into the drill by adding a second armed gunman, a fact Welch didn't find out about until after the first gunman walked right past his office in Riggleman Hall, effectively isolating Welch for the rest of the drill.The scenario began at 9:35 a.m. with a report of a UC security officer down with multiple gunshot wounds. The shooter ran into Riggleman Hall on the eastern end of campus. The campus alert system crackled into life a few minutes later, with loudspeakers blaring campus-wide warnings. "There is a shooter in Riggleman Hall," students and staff were told. "Lock down and hide out until further instructions."At the announcement, students hunkered down where they were, whether in their dorm rooms, in the cafeteria or in class. Classroom students locked their doors and piled their desks against the door to serve as a barricade, and were instructed to huddle in a far corner where they were theoretically out of sight of the shooter.At the same time, the campus alert system sent out text and email messages to students. Some got the messages immediately, while others experienced a delay. Welch said planners have not figured out a pattern of who got messages first, or why.Kanawha County sheriff's deputies and Charleston police arrived at 9:41. Four Kanawha County sheriff's deputies armed with assault rifles entered Riggleman Hall a few minutes later, tracked down the suspect and arrested him. A second report came in about another gunman in the Geary Student Union a few minutes later. Officers didn't know at first if the report was genuine."You always have misinformation going out," said Scott Pauley, deputy director of the West Virginia Intelligence/Fusion Center, who helped plan Wednesday's drill."They don't know if it's one person, two people or 10 people."Officers were ordered to set up a perimeter and wait for Charleston Police and Kanawha County SWAT teams, who arrived just before 11 a.m. The campus alert system continued to broadcast updates to students and faculty.Officers spotted the second suspect a few minutes later, but lost him for several minutes before finally trapping him in a stairwell at 11:20 a.m. There was a report of yet a third gunman, but it turned out to be a false alarm. The drill was declared over at 11:40 a.m.Jordan Johnson, a University of Charleston student who spent the duration of the drill locked down in a classroom, said the drill went fairly well and he feels faculty and police will be able to do a good job protecting students in the event of a real emergency. Welch said planners learned some valuable lessons from the drill, including the need for faculty and staff to find alternate ways to communicate if they're physically cut off from one another. The ability of the gunman to move freely between Riggleman Hall and Geary Student Union through the skywalk was also a problem."Next time we'll try to find a way to lock down between buildings," he said.Even with the glitches, Welch said, "It's helpful just getting ready for it."Reach Rusty Marks at firstname.lastname@example.com or 304-348-1215.

Mumbai: The Bollywood actress Vidya Balan apparently has a new agenda these days. We have heard that she is intending to do everything she can to avoid the interaction with the mass media. According to our informers, the tinsel town super star is doing her best to maintain a low profile after the pictures of her and UTV's Siddharth Roy Kapur from Goa were all over the media.
We also have to mention the fact that actress did not like to talk much to the press at the recent event which she was attending. Rumors are that the main reason for her lack of interested towards the press was to avoid the questions that what about to follow. There have been many speculations regarding the fact that Vidya Balan is not interested in making a commitment and comment on her relationship with Siddharth.
Probably because Siddharth Roy Kapur is in the middle of a divorce, and he has more than likely asked the Bollywood actress to keep a low profile until it is over.

The oil pressure sender is just on top of the oil filter housing and points toward the firewall. You can see it easily if you look at the oil filter from above. It doesn't thread directly into the block, it threads into the oil filter housing.

MILLER: Gun ownership up, crime down - Washington Times
It's just plain ol' common sense. Good to see it in the Washington Times.
quick get me a copy so I can take it to Jesse Jackson before he goes on his gun store march.
that's right he already did and it was a big Ol'flop, O' well
Well if crime is down, then we don't need any guns :dunno:
Wait, where citizens are denied carrying weapons, this just in: Statistics: Violent crime spikes in Long Beach in 2012, according to the local, liberal rag.
The problem with national statistics is their smoothing local situations.
The cops are good and continue to arrest fugitives and gang leaders en masse. And they're only minutes away. Please send 2A :argh:Quote:
Violent crime - murder, rape, robbery and aggravated assault - totaled 1,167 crimes as of May 31, an increase of 5.8 percent from last year....
Administrative Bureau Chief Braden Phillips said that while 2010 crime statistics were the lowest in 40 years, a combination of factors - economic difficulties, fewer officers on the streets and the state's release of nonviolent, nonsexual and non-gang offenders - may be contributing toward higher crime rates in the past two years.
"It's almost creating a kind of `perfect storm' situation,"'Phillips said.
Overall, crime rates discussed Tuesday were up 9.9 percent from the same period in 2011. Earlier this year, police released statistics that showed crime was 9.4 percent higher last year than 2010 levels.
Still another perspective, In the first quarter of 2012, Chicago pegged 120 murders. That compares to 75 during the same quarter in 2010. David Knowles of The Daily says Chicago is more lethal than U.S. posts in Afghanistan, "The streets of Chicago are officially more dangerous than a war zone: Homicide victims in the Windy City outnumber U.S. troops killed in Afghanistan this year."
144 Americans have died in Afghanistan in 2012. As of the counting, 228 Chicago residents are victims of fatal violence, as the rate for murder is spiking 35 percent higher than last year.
It behooves the voters to send Obama back home to his neighbors.
Seattle has had a jump in murders (most done with guns) this year. While national crime may be trending down, there are still hot spots, and the same tired old ideas of fixing it with more gun control keep coming up. We really need more laws to keep people from breaking the other laws we already have that they are ignoring...
"The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence did not respond to requests for comment."
...and the silence is deafening
Sent from my Atrix 4G using Tapatalk 2
I especially like where the Brady Bunch are just not existent on this issue, when it proves them wrong. The Progressive MSM just is um, mum, on this too.
Sucks to be them.
Imangine (not in the Socialist Beetles' way) that for every one of us on this Forum, there are 10 or more Slient US Citizens who believe in the 2A.
Fudge the UN!, and Hillary's Brady Agenda with the UN.
My daughter was planning an over night shopping trip with her boyfriend July 2nd. I told her yesterday she could not go. Currently she is not speaking to me but that will be short-lived. Even though Water Tower/Michigan Ave is pretty safe, I'm just not comfortable right now. My LEO family members even say its not a safe city right now. Am I over-reacting?
It is a no brainer that increased firearm ownership has an affect on lowering crime. That is due to the balancing effect. If only the criminals have guns, then they will be used to commit gun crime and that will be percieved as an increase.
When gun ownership is allowed for the law abiding, the useage in lawful situations balances out the gun crime. Thus, the criminals may be less likely to use a gun during the commission of a crime, or be very careful and pick out crimes that may not get them shot and killed. Hence the effect of "lowering" crime. Maybe. I could be giving criminals too much credit to their intelligence.
It sounded good anyhow.
I always thought the right-wing could outspew the left any day when it came to fear-mongering with manufactured "facts", but then I went to the Brady website and read some of their crap and it's right up there with "Obama will eat your babies and take your guns." as far as asininity goes.

I hear he is a perfectionist and following his recipes is a learning experience
Any thoughts or experience with a Thomas Keller book would be appreciated..
I just purchased this off Amazon used for around $22 and received it a few days ago. I had school all weekend and work and won't have a day off until Tuesday so I haven't had much of a chance to go through it and try any of the recipes, though I busted out the dijon viniagrette at school for a poached salmon salad we made. I had my wife run through it and she is begging for the pot pie (just haven't had time to devote to the bechamel). I own French Laundry and have Bouchon coming soon here, and this is a much different beast. It is accessible to the home chef and the recipes are "homey." From what it looks like I will prepare many dishes from it, especially the duck. Just don't pay the 50 bucks they want at Borders, etc. get it used off Amazon. Just a tip, apparently Ruhlman started work on the Bouchon pastry cookbook, which I'm itching to be released.
Keller is a meticulous and a classic perfectionist, but his recipes are clearly presented, not that difficult to follow, and well-thought-out. I would strongly recommend any of his cookbooks, but especially Ad-Hoc at Home. I received it as part of a birthday gift last year and it's been well-used ever since.
I just scored a two-book, slipcased set of The French Laundry Cookbook and Ad Hoc at Home. It has a 1994 menu from The French Laundry in it- it may be autographed by Thomas Keller, but I can't really tell. The set was on sale at Barnes and Noble. Now for the kicker: I paid $24.95 for both books. Looks like I have some interesting reading ahead of me! But I'll have to wait: the books are very heavy, and I'm having carpal tunnel surgery this week. It'll be a while before I can even pick up one of the books!
I've purchased Ad Hoc and The French Laundry a little while ago. Enjoyed cooking from both books. As stated, Ad Hoc is more "home kitchen" friendly, but each book give little tidbits or light bulb ideas on how to do things. The most recent dish I prepared was the Lemon Sabayon - Pine Nut Tart with Honeyed Mascarpone Cream. This is a serious lemon tart. Lemon flavour that slaps you in the mouth, but is so light and airy. The pine nut crust is a play on the french almond crust. The pine nut flavour is very settle and the crust holds together nicely. I will make this again.
I've had the French Laundry cookbook for a while now. He autographed it for me in Napa at his restaurant while I was there.
I love his Maine lobster broth and I make the salmon tartar cones a lot for guests.
Sometimes I had to make the recipes several times in order for them to come out right. Patience, patience and more patience.
Hi all! I'm new here.. I want to get a Thomas Keller book. I am debating between Ad Hoc and Bouchon mainly, because I don't think I can tackle French Laundry just yet. I'm a better than average home cook and am very comfortable with meats, sauces, baking, etc. I have my own food blog. I love to entertain and present restaurant-quality dishes. I don't anticipate spending days making one recipe though. I was leaning more towards Bouchon just because I am pretty interested in learning more French dishes rather than homey American style dishes. I would be okay with getting Ad Hoc if the food has a wow factor (probably) and there are still some French influences.
Which book is your favorite TK cookbook? Why? Which would you recommend for me?
I have "Ad Hoc At Home" and I really think it's a beautiful book. I also love the tips and techniques in it. I don't use it too often because, while the book is geared toward a home cook, the recipes are ones that still take a good deal of time. With two small kids, time is not always something that I have! I still really enjoy it, and I'm glad that I own it. It helps that I got a GREAT deal on it - Ad Hoc, plus The French Laundry for $25 at Barnes and Noble! it was a steal.

The Discussion Column improves on the Multiple Lines of Text column as follows:
- Removes the requirement for Versioning to be turned on for the list -- the standard Multiple Lines of Text column requires Versioning to be turned on to use Append Changes to Existing Text, which can result in high data storage needs due to the many versions of each list item that are created.
- Adds a Date Stamp and User Name to each entry -- the standard Multiple Lines of Text column does not do this unless Append Changes to Existing Text is selected, which requires Versioning to be turned on for the list.
- Eliminates blank entries -- the standard Multiple Lines of Text column puts in a blank entry every time the item is saved, even if nothing was entered in the box.
- Allows viewing of entries from List View -- the standard Multiple Lines of Text opens the full item, not just the entries.
- Exports all entries to Excel and Access -- the standard Multiple Lines of Text column only allows export of the latest entry.
- Allows users to delete their own entries, and for administrators to delete all entries -- the standard Multiple Lines of Text column does not allow previous entries to be deleted.
We understand the need for SharePoint users and administrators to be able to interact quickly and efficiently with each other, said Scott Restivo, CEO of Crow Canyon Systems. Our team recognized several challenges with the Multiple Lines of Text box. We have tackled these limitations head on with the new Discussion Column web part, making it easier to create, view, and export log entries.
The Discussion Column runs on SharePoint 2010 and SharePoint 2013. More information on this innovative and useful web part can be obtained by visiting http://sharepoint-applications.com/tools-web-parts/crow-canyon-discussion-column/ or calling 925 478-3110.

DETROIT (AP) — An Indiana basketball standout fighting for his life after a plane crash that killed his father bounced back from a similar tragedy eight years ago and has established strong relationships with an extended family who are ready to support him, friends said Monday.
Austin Hatch, 16, was the lone survivor the small plane crash Friday in Michigan that killed his father and stepmother. He and his father also survived a similar crash in 2003 that killed his mother and two siblings.
The teen has been in a drug-induced coma at a Traverse City hospital, where classmates were gathered Monday. Described as an A student and outstanding athlete, the high school junior recently made an early commitment to play basketball at the University of Michigan in 2013.
Trent VanHorn, Hatch's teammate at Canterbury School in Fort Wayne, said he was hopeful his best friend would recover.
"He's definitely one of the toughest guys I know," said Trent VanHorn, 16. "We've known each other our whole lives. If there's anyone who can make it through this tragedy ... it's definitely him."
Another friend, Barrett Colby, said his family and many others were ready to open their homes and hearts to Hatch when he is released from the hospital.

The Methow Valley May 21, 2017
I recently had the pleasure of heading to the Methow Valley for a family reunion. This is a beautiful part of Washington State—an area so special it is what you envision when you read fairy tales about a princess coming from a land far, far away. It's located in north-central Washington, over the North Cascades Highway. (The pass closes in the winter, so in the snowy months, you can reach the valley by going over Snoqualmie Pass on I-90 or Stevens Pass on Highway 2.)
When driving to the Methow on the North Cascades Highway (Highway 20), you can't, shouldn't—just don't—make the mistake of missing the Cascadian Farm in Rockport. They have the best blueberry ice cream ever. Oh, and hit the fruit stand, too. I'm the biggest sucker for a fruit stand, and this is a good one.
The Methow Valley has five towns (Methow, Carlton, Twisp, Winthrop, and Mazama), and each one has a distinct feel. Methow and Carlton are pretty small, residential places. Twisp has an unpretentious local flavor with a lot of shops and galleries and restaurants; Winthrop is an old-west, cowboy-themed town, and Mazama is an outdoorsman's haven. The valley is a great place to visit year round. There's usually a lot of snow in the winter, and they often get Indian summers, so a fall camping trip can be a great way to stretch out your short Seattle sunny season. Read Full Post

Hi all.
I just looked for what was involved with that process, and it was a lot of legalese...needless to say, I'm not sure I understood it all.
I have a friend who lives right on the bay, and the ducks/geese drive her nuts because they obviously defecate all over her yard. I told her I would LOVE to help her, but she has people who set up in the water behind her house (in the bay). Can anyone direct me to a website that is easy to understand regarding this issue? I'd like to lock the water up so that I don't have to fight with anyone, but I've no clue how to go about it.

Houses built decades ago were spacious with wide front lawns and airy backyards. These houses also often had large basements and roomy attics which provided extra rooms for storage. Grander ones even have outhouses built to store out-of-season items, spare furniture, or equipment. In contrast, houses nowadays are much smaller in size due to the rapid growth of cities. Many now even choose to live in condominiums where there is just enough space for basic furniture. With living spaces becoming smaller and smaller, many are resorting to storage facilities to keep their belongings secure and their living spaces less cluttered.
When choosing a facility for storage, here are some things you should consider:
1. What items are you placing in storage? The items you will be placing in storage will determine the amount of space you need. If it is just for seasonal items such as clothing and sports gear, a 25-square-foot space may already suffice. If you need storage for upholstered furniture or archive documents, you may want to look for a storage unit equipped with climate-control.
2. How long will you need storage space? Most storage facilities allow you to lease space from a minimum of two weeks to however long you wish to keep your items there. If you are planning to keep your items in storage for a long period of time, do inform the facility as most of them offer discounts for long-term lease.
3. How secure and accessible is the facility? Make sure that the facility you choose has adequate security measures in place and that you can access your storage unit anytime you need to. You may want to inquire about extra security for valuable items or documents.
4. Is the storage facility clean and well-maintained? Do check if storage units are clean and that the area is pest free. You really don't want to come back for items and find them infested with bugs or gnawed by vermin.
With the increasing need for storage, many facilities are now offering more affordable and more flexible storage solutions including units that can be accessed daily. Finding one that exactly fits your needs wouldn't be a problem.

Lucas: Road Graded
BIRMINGHAM--And that, folks, is exactly why very few of the nation's top programs play true road games in the month of December.
And, at least partially, that is exactly why Roy Williams continues to play them.
Twenty-six times now, he's taken his Carolina team into a true road environment--not a neutral site near an opponent, but their actual home court. The Tar Heel winning percentage isn't overwhelmingly outstanding in those games, as they've won 16 of them (.615). That's not bad for road success, but do you think the Tar Heels might have a little better percentage if those games were played at the Smith Center or a "neutral" site like Greensboro or Charlotte?
Most definitely. But Williams continues to put his team in these environments, continues to pack the bags for places like Long Beach and Charleston and Birmingham, places where a visit from Carolina is clearly the marquee event on the home schedule. His team has now lost four of its last five nonconference true road games, but that's in the same time frame when they've won 12 out of 17 ACC road contests (.706). One, perhaps, has something to do with the other.
The Tar Heel head coach finds value in forcing his team to execute down four with the ball and five minutes to play, with a hostile crowd on their feet against them. Carolina was in that situation three times against UAB between the five-minute mark and three-minute mark and was never able to get a hoop.
He wants his team to figure out what to do down three with 36.1 seconds on the clock, on a court other than the familiar blue one where they practice every day. That was the scenario after Chad Frazier (a North Carolina native, of course) made the final two free throws of his 25-point performance. But UAB, as they did for most of the evening with tenacious defense, tenacious rebounding and, well, tenacious everything, frustrated the Tar Heel offense. The play broke down on the sideline and Marcus Paige had to force a shot.
And yes, Carolina had some timeouts to burn at that moment. But their point guard didn't feel the situation called for one. He looked surprised when asked if one could have been used when he appeared bottled up in front of the UNC bench.
"We weren't in that troubled a situation where we needed a timeout," Paige said. "We were trying to save them for when it became a free throw game at the end. But the play broke down and we didn't quite get the shot we wanted."
Carolina has now had a couple late-game situations break down, one against Belmont and this one against the Blazers. It would be much better, as Williams himself often says, to learn from a win rather than from a loss. But sometimes the learning creates the loss.
If, in those final 30 seconds, the Tar Heels had five seniors on the court who had played together for three seasons, the flub would be absolutely infuriating. The truth is this year's team was intended and was built to have some veterans available for that situation. But instead, the current reality is they had a freshman, three sophomores and a junior on the floor. So instead of being infuriating, maybe it's merely exasperating. That doesn't exactly make a 63-59 loss feel any better.
But again, that's why so many other teams never set foot on the road. It eliminates the risk of this exact situation happening--a cold night from the best scorer against an energized opponent that gets a hand on every loose ball.
UAB shot 21.9% from the field in the second half...and won the game. Let that sink in for a minute. You think they would've survived that kind of drought at the Smith Center, where the crowd could have built a little momentum and maybe cast a little doubt in their heads? In fact, that's almost exactly the drought they ran into in the second half in Chapel Hill last year, when Carolina turned a tight second-half game into a comfortable win.
Where the crowd wouldn't have mattered, unless it was filled with Sean May clones with significant eligibility remaining, was on the backboard. The late game struggles and other problems will get some attention, but it's in the rebounding battle (52-37 in favor of UAB) where the Blazers dominated the game. They came into Sunday with a 42.2 offensive rebounding percentage, meaning they grabbed 42 percent of their available missed shots.
That's why Roy Williams singled out rebounding as one of the three factors he keyed on with his team before the game. It wasn't a new idea; since the beginning of the year, he's repeatedly identified rebounding as an area of the game his team has to win in order to be successful.
And yet, UAB actually bettered its season figure against Carolina, getting an offensive rebound on 46.7% of the available opportunities. Think about that for just a second. Half the time the Blazers fired the ball and missed, they came up with the rebound.
"To me, it's the most important factor in basketball," Williams said of the offensive glass.
If UAB had been more accurate from the field and converted some of those repeated chances-the most unbelievable stat of the game is the Tar Heels actually had a 13-12 edge in second chance points-there wouldn't have been a chance for any late game learning, because the game would've been well out of reach.
As Paige put it, "They kind of manhandled us."
"We weren't competing," said Brice Johnson, who finished with seven rebounds in 16 minutes. "We have to box out better. At one point in the second half they got second chances on five possessions in a row, and Coach got on us and said we have to get on the backboards...It really hurts you because you play defense for 30 seconds and then have to play another 35 seconds. It really wears you down after a while."
And who is the next opponent? A Michigan State team that under Tom Izzo has built a reputation on manhandling opponents on the backboards, and will be angry after a decade of losing to Williams in big situations.
Oh, and it's on the road. In less than 48 hours, the Tar Heels leave on their next road trip, a Tuesday flight for Wednesday's very difficult assignment in East Lansing.
"Down the road, against Michigan State and in the ACC, it's going to help when we get in those situations when under a minute left," Paige said of Sunday's game situation experience against the Blazers trying to execute in the final minutes. "But the truth is that we never should've been in that situation tonight to begin with."
Adam Lucas is the editor of CAROLINA.

Defuse the situation.
The combination of perforated leather and Poron D30 knuckle protection makes the Fox Racing men's Unabomber Gloves a hot-weather favorite for aggressive riders. This construction allows air to flow freely through the gloves so your hands remain dry and in control, and the padding — only in spots you need it — keeps your fingers safe if you clip a tree or take a header.
On the palm, synthetic Clarino is extremely durable and delivers heaps of grip so you don't come off the bars. Light, low-profile padding at the heel of the wrist helps protect in the event of a spill, while silicone detailing on the inside of the fingers keeps that from happening by providing excellent purchase on your brake levers and shifters.

Reviews & Community
Ventilating Protection
- Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
- Fit: True to size
Lighter than most, but with solid protection. Fits normal.
protection is great on this glove
Such a great glove! I think fox makes great gloves, these gloves are very durable!
Solid Choice
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: Runs small
- Size Bought: Small
I've used these gloves on a couple of rides now, and they definitely get the job done. They are comfortable, breathable, and provide pretty solid protection. As with many Fox products which I have tried, the gloves fit on the smaller side, but nothing crazy. Great for summer rides, but out here in UT it is getting a little colder, and these might not provide the most warmth for your digits. So for 3 seasons, these gloves are pretty much perfect.
High Protection but Breathable
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: Runs small
- Size Bought: XL
Very high level of protection but in a breathable package. Suitable for long days of pedaling. Love the location of the protective pads on the outer knuckle - right where I always bash things. Comfortable palm. Construction seems bomber. Note on sizing: would not go so far as to say they run extremely small, but if you are in between you may consider sizing up. I originally ordered size large and found the fit right on the border of being too tight. I ended up sizing up to XL which fit length wise much better, though are a bit on the roomy side through the mid-hand. Once strapped down they feel fine.
Breathable version of Bomber glove
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: small
I bought these after years of using the more heavy duty version, Bomber glove from Fox. The Bomber glove was indeed that, I was beginning to find them very hot and heavy for the sort of high desert riding I do. The Unabomber is much more comfortable and lightweight for those hot days or more cardio based riding.
I love most aspects about them minus the fourth finger color bleeds on to my hand when I get sweaty. I had gotten the Cyan colorway which looks awesome. The color comes off my hand after a quick wash with hand soap, but was alarming to see the first time it happened.
They do breath so much better then the carbon re-enforced Bomber, and with light padding offer good protection for most trail based riding activities.

NCAA FOOTBALL: NAVY 24, PITT 21 -- Panthers lose on late field goal
ANNAPOLIS, Md. — Pittsburgh coach Paul Chryst thought his team did a solid job most of the game containing Navy and its high-powered rushing attack.
The Panthers, however, appeared to tire in the fourth quarter and allowed the Midshipmen to put together a late rally. A 30-yard field-goal by Nick Sloan as time expired gave Navy a 24-21 victory. The Panthers allowed 17 points in the fourth quarter after dominating most of the game.
"In a 60-minute game, they found a way to win," Chryst said. "I thought our guys' effort was nothing short of what I expected. Obviously, we did not make enough plays to win the game."
Tom Savage completed 20 of 27 pass attempts for 203 yards and two touchdowns for Pitt (4-3).
Pittsburgh's Devin Street caught nine passes for 96 yards with a touchdown and became the school's all-time leading receiver. Street now has 186 career receptions, surpassing Latef Grim, who had 178 from 1998-2000.
With Pitt trailing 14-13 midway through the fourth quarter, Savage threw a 3-yard touchdown pass to freshman Tyler Boyd to give the Panthers a 20-14 lead. Street then caught a short pass for the 2-point conversion.
Navy responded on the ensuing possession and tied the game on a 10-play, 71-yard drive capped by a 2-yard run by quarterback Keenan Reynolds with 3:53 left in the game.
The Midshipmen (4-3) snapped a two-game losing streak and need two more wins to become eligible for a bowl game.
Navy finally got into a rhythm in the second half and put together its most impressive drive of the game to take a 14-13 lead with 14:28 left in the game.
Reserve fullback Quinton Singleton's 9-yard scoring run capped the 16-play, 91-yard scoring drive that took 8:15 off the clock. The teams traded touchdowns in the fourth quarter before Sloan kicked the game-winner.
"It's every kicker's dream to be in this situation," Sloan said. "It's definitely what separates the good kickers from the bad kickers. I just thought of it as just another kick. That's all I can do."
"Pittsburgh is a good football team," Reynolds said. "They are a big, BCS team. This is a good win for our program."
After tying the game at 21 with under four minutes to play, the Midshipmen then forced a three-and-out on the Panthers' next possession and got the ball at Pitt's 49. Navy ran 11 plays to set up Sloan's game-winning kick.
Pitt took a 3-0 lead after its opening drive on a 25-yard field goal by Chris Blewitt, capping a 16-play, 68 yard drive that took 7:32 off the clock. After Don Pearson recovered a fumble by Pittsburgh's James Conner to open the second quarter, Navy took the lead on a pass from Reynolds that deflected off Geoffrey Whiteside and was caught by senior Marcus Thomas, who ran 58 yards for his first career touchdown.
Another 44-yard field goal by Blewitt pulled Pitt to within 7-6 with 9:23 left in the opening half. The Panthers then took a 13-7 lead with less than two minutes to play in the half on a 12-yard pass from Tom Savage to Street.
The Panthers largely dominated the first half, holding an edge in total plays (44-22), time of possession (22:07-7:53) and yardage (252-135).
"We did a good job containing them in the first half," Chryst said. "However, Navy's field position changed in the second half and gave them a shorter distance to the end zone. We did not do a good enough job to change the field position."
Navy entered the game ranked sixth in the nation with 304.2 rushing yards per game, and managed 220 against the Panthers.
"I wish these games weren't like this, but we'll take it," Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo said. "I'm super-happy for Nick Sloan. The guy took a beating last week. He's the guy who took the blame last week. It wasn't his fault. We lost as a team and today we won as a team."

It may be football's night of nights, but off the field, as always, all eyes remain firmly on the players' wives and girlfriends.
Plunging necklines, backless numbers and lots of bling characterise the show stoppers at this event, and last night was no exception.
Who won the fashion stakes? Have your say on last night's Brownlow gowns.
Former Sydney Swans owner Geoffrey Edelsten arrived with fiance Brynne Gordon, who immediately caused a sensation with her barely-there ensemble.
Better suited for a day at the beach, Ms Gordon's bejewelled bikini top rivalled Tania Buckley's infamous diamond-encrusted g-string in the bad-taste stakes.
Collingwood star Dane Swan's partner Taylor Wilson brought the sparkle to the blue carpet, wearing a midnight blue gown sparkling with 1105 diamonds - the largest being a one-carat stone encased in white gold.
Red carpet royalty Rebecca Twigley arrived to a whirl of activity among the gathered media and again favoured Australian fashion royalty J'Aton.
The one-shouldered, skin toned bodice had elaborate gold detailing, and adorned the draping which became the bottom of the beautiful gown. Her jewellery was exquisite, with two rings totalling $320,000 alone.
Also favouring the in-vogue nude hue was Brownlow favourite Gary Ablett's partner Lauren Phillips. Her flowing, simple design, partnered with a stand-out jewelled necklace, was a hit.
"I'm wearing Thurley again this year. Helen has done my dress for the last three years. I'm wearing Jan Logan jewels. I'm very lucky to be in this dress. I'll do my best to keep it in one piece. It's very delicate."
West Coast Eagles' chief executive Mark Barnaba arrived with his wife Paige, who was dressed by Aurelio Costarella. Usually a hit on the red carpet, this outfit missed the mark, making her look gift-wrapped.
Port Adelaide captain Domenic Cassissi was spot on with a stylish tuxedo - but his partner Maiya Varts was mismatched in what looked like an elaborate design for a curtain rather than a frock.
The Brisbane Lions did not fare much better - with Justin Sherman's wife Jackie an unsettling mix of toilet-paper holder and kettle doile.
Brownlow first-timer Jacinta Jellett, partner of Collingwood's Alan Didak, opted for safety in her plain, black, strapless dress.
A winner on the red carpet was AFL chief executive Andrew Demetriou's wife Symone, who shone in a short, strapless, sequined dress - despite being pregnant with the couple's fourth child.
Also parading a baby bump was Carlton footballer Brendan Fevola's wife Alex, who opted for a flowing, purple sheath.
A fragile Melbourne president Jim Stynes arrived with wife Sam, who also chose purple - this time with a flowing halter neck.
Sydney Swans players arrived in a flock, with Adam Goodes, Leo Barry, Michael O'Loughlin, Brett Kirk and Rhyce Shaw posing for the cameras together with no female attachments.

I had a similar problem, and after pondering whether I had the engineering skills to rig up a food platform that would raise or lower based on weight (no, I don't have those skills!), I accidentally hit on a solution when my vet said to switch to wet food. Turns out my fat cat has actually lost considerable weight (2+ lbs) because he very much prefers the wet food, and he basically doesn't graze on the dry food anymore because he's all about waiting for the yummy wet food.
That may or may not work for you, but it's worth a shot, right?
Member 1155172 answered on 2/13/13. Helpful? / 0
Yes, switching to wet food is definitely the answer. It's much healthier for cats, and you can control how much they get.

"Les Miserables" Stars Gather For NYC Luncheon
Continuing to celebrate the release of their latest film, the stars of "Les Miserables" gathered together to attend a luncheon in New York City on Tuesday (December 11).
Keeping on a smile after her wardrobe malfunction the evening before, Anne Hathaway made a stunning entrance to the restaurant while her fellow co-star Amanda Seyfried followed closely behind looking elegant in a black pea coat and red heels.
Joining in on the afternoon fun was Australian hunk Hugh Jackman, who was happily accompanied by his beautiful wife Deborra-Lee Furness.
Just last night, the "Les Mis" cast were together again as they worked the red carpet at the New York City premiere of their highly-anticipated flick.

Man Shot by Dixie County Sheriff's Deputy
A Dixie county family took aim at law enforcement after their loved one was shot by a deputy Wednesday afternoon. Richard Yearwood's family said he suffered from serious mental illness. Dixie County Sheriff's Office spokesperson Scott Harden said Yearwood was attempting to hit the deputy with a shovel. According to Harden, that is when a deputy fired. Family members agreed their loved was swinging a shovel toward deputies but argued firing bullets in response wasn't the answer.
"I'm pissed off. I'm mad as hell. The mentally ill are neglected in the state of Florida and then you have Dixie county cops who are so happy to shoot somebody," said sister Jerry Aguilar.
Family members said as of Monday night Yearwood is at Shands hospital in stable condition. The Dixie County Sheriff's Office requested a Florida Department of Law Enforcement external investigation of the shooting. To see more on this report, watch the video to your right.

Great Job: Healthy Workplaces
By Lambeth Hochwald, Joyce Hendley, M.S., Sylvia Geiger, M.S., R.D., "Great Job," May/June 2007
Eating well at work has never been so easy or delicious, thanks to innovative employers like these.
Weight-Loss Leaders. Anyone with some pounds to lose will also feel supported. The Blittersdorfs were so convinced of the transformative power of VTrim™, the University of Vermont weight-loss program, that company now helps foot the bill for any employee who wants to enroll in the program. (VTrim's principles are combined with EatingWell's recipes in The EatingWell Diet, a new book by Jean Harvey Berino, Ph.D., R.D.)
NRG's health-friendly, green working environment is also a natural draw for potential hires, says Julie Goodheart, human resources manager. "In interviews, I'll always ask people why they chose us," she says. "They'll usually mention the green building, and that they want a healthy place to work."
Larry Jacobs, a member of NRG's sales and marketing department, would concur. "I'm in better shape now than I was seven years ago," he says. "They've really put a lot of thought into making it easy to stay healthy at work." Jacobs, 47, usually starts his morning at 6:30, working out on the StairMaster and cross-training machines. He lifts weights or does some stretches, then showers and heads to the kitchen to fix himself a bowl of oatmeal. By 8:30, he's at his desk, energized. Weather permitting, he'll take a walk along the nearby "pond loop" at lunchtime, and enjoy his home-cooked lunch on the terrace al fresco. "Sometimes, I'll come in on the weekends for a workout, then stay to get work done." For that matter, he adds, "it's productive for the company too."
But even if an employee doesn't get involved in the healthy-eating, weight-loss and fitness benefits NRG offers, Jan Blittersdorf understands. "It took me over 10 years to finally decide to do something about my weight, so I don't sweat it if we provide an opportunity and someone doesn't take advantage of it. I now understand that they might eventually do it, and I won't give up on them or pass judgment on them.
"Of course, they have to be motivated," she adds, but "providing opportunity at low hassle is half the battle."

Roger was born in 1940, in Princeton, MN in the family farmhouse. As a hard working and ambitious young man, Roger served in the Army National Guard for 2 years.

To know Roger was to know a good provider, a family man, a hard worker, a man that loved to travel. A man that was always able to help or "fix" whatever it was, that nobody else could. Roger will be missed by all who knew him. He is preceded in death by his infant daughter, Darcy; his parents Gust and Helen Hansen. Roger is survived by his wife of 19 years Ronay; his two children Corey Hansen (Kim) of Coon Rapids, and Jody Horning (Jerry) of Albertville; his two step daughters Lisa LeFavor of Maple Grove, and Tina Heidelberger (Matt Wilcox) of Minnetonka; and six grandchildren, Kayla, Alyssa, and Nathan Hansen and Haley and Wesley Horning, and Derek LeFavor.

The leaders of INEOS have once again proved themselves to be clever and innovative in seizing opportunities for growth and the reshaping of their company in both oil and chemicals.
The new deal with PetroChina and parent group China National Petroleuem Corporation (CNPC) gives the company access to the all-important Chinese market.
It also reduces the company's exposure to a loss-making European oil refining business which hammered its finances when the oil price plummeted in 2008, leaving it with €845m in inventory losses that year.
The deal will also please the company's lenders who had to cope with debt covenant renegotiation during the darkest days of the downturn.
The first part of the agreement is a framework agreement with PetroChina to form joint ventures – by the end of June 2011 – in trading and refining at Grangemouth, Scotland and Lavera, France. Swiss headquartered INEOS also agreed with CNPC to share refining and petrochemical technology and expertise.
The second part could be important for INEOS as it tries to expand beyond its stronghold of Europe and North America. With deals like this and the proposed European ethylene terminal at Antwerp, Belgium, INEOS is proving itself to be not just a survivor, but a versatile and adaptable company.

TELL CITY - Two grants worth a combined $72,853 will allow Tell City to retrofit its two Main Street traffic-control signals and upgrade lighting in City Hall and two buildings used by its electric utility.
Lt. Gov. Becky Skillman announced Tuesday that 46 Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grants were awarded to 34 Indiana cities, towns and counties for energy-efficiency upgrades to public facilities. A total of $3.35 million was awarded for upgrades, including LED traffic-light conversions, building-lighting upgrades and nonlighting building retrofits.
PERRY COUNTY - Perry County's commissioners will offer for sale at a public auction April 16 several properties with prices starting at $50, according to County Auditor Connie Berger.
The plots belong to owners who are severely delinquent in the payment of property taxes. The News reported Feb. 8 that legislation adopted three years ago could help move tax-delinquent properties back onto tax rolls by disposing of tracts without the county having to take ownership of them.
CANNELTON - Cannelton Mayor Smokey Graves said after a city council meeting March 24 he'd talked to a member of U.S. Sen. Richard Lugar's staff earlier in the day and hopes to hear by mid-April about financial help to get the city's floodwall recertified.
As The News reported in February 2009, the Federal Emergency Management Agency mandated that the floodwall be accredited within two years. An inspection toward that purpose would cost $210,000 and the city would have to pay to fix any problems it reveals.
TELL CITY - Tell City-Troy Township School Board members accepted a recommendation from the Veazey, Parrott and Shoulders architectural firm Tuesday and voted to hire Weddle Brothers Construction Co. of Evansville to renovate and add to a media center at Tell City Junior-Senior High School.
ST. MEINRAD - National Players, America's longest-running classical touring company, will present two plays at Saint Meinrad Archabbey April 16 and 17.
The free performances will be "Much Ado About Nothing" Friday, April 16, and "Lord of the Flies" Saturday, April 17. The public is welcome to attend. Both plays begin at 7 p.m. in St. Bede Theater.
Before each performance, a buffet supper will be available for $9 per person from 5:30 to 6:15 p.m. in Newman Dining Room.
PERRY COUNTY - Most governmental offices in Perry County will be closed all or some of Friday in observance of Good Friday.
County offices in the courthouse and annex in Cannelton will be closed for the day, as will Cannelton municipal offices.
City Hall offices in Tell City will close at noon Friday. State offices will also be closed for the day, including the Perry County License Branch and the Perry County Department of Child Services.
Town and utility offices in Troy will be open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
PERRY COUNTY - County Clerk Jean Schulthise reminds voters that the deadline to register in time for the May primary is 4 p.m. Monday. Absentee voting begins the same day.
The courthouse will be closed Friday for Good Friday, so registering there is possible only until 4 p.m. today or Monday.
Voters can also register at the license branch at 635 Main St., in Tell City, but it, too, will be closed for Good Friday. It is open until 5 p.m. today and from 8:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. Saturday. That office is closed Mondays.
PERRY COUNTY - County commissioners reduced March 1 the number of voting locations in the county from 21 to 11. Their action came at the recommendation of the county election board, whose members said the changes will save more than $5,000 per election after the 2010 primary.

BEDFORD — Road work is under way on Tipsaw Lake Road, where culverts are being replaced and road repair work is being done. "With the rate work is proceeding we're hoping the road will reopen by the end of May," said Nancy Myers, recreation planner for the Hoosier National Forest.
Myers said spring weather has a lot of boaters and fishermen wanting to get down to Tipsaw Lake. "We apologize for the inconvenience, but fortunately there are several other equally good lakes in close proximity," Myers said.
