We’re starting to believe that’s more of the team North Carolina is, compared to the two ugly losses it suffered at the hands of Belmont and UAB. Marcus Paige scored 23 points—21 in the second half—and James Michael McAdoo added 20 points as the Tar Heels beat the Wildcats 82-77 on Saturday.

North Korean athletes need approval from Seoul to enter the South as the 1950-53 Korean War ended with a truce, not a peace treaty, leaving the two Koreas technically in a state of war. The ministry’s comments come after Choi Moon-soon, the governor of the 2018 host city’s province, said on Sunday that a North Korean sports official had told him the North wanted to take part in the Games....
The meeting, the first of its kind in about two years, was arranged after North Korean leader Kim Jong Un made an abrupt push for improved ties with South Korea following a year of elevated tensions with the outside world over his expanding nuclear and missile programs. Critics say Kim may be trying to divide Seoul and Washington in a bid to weaken international pressure and sanctions on the North....

The fourth person is unknown. The DUP was formerly in an agreement with the ruling Conservative government before the last election.

Not if Simpson can help it. He was so angered by the infighting that he felt compelled to put a stop to it, Newsweek learned. In a move that underscored the very active role that he is playing in his case, Simpson told his multimillion-dollar defenders that they had better set aside their differences and keep their focus on the game – just as he had when he and some of his football teammates didn’t get along....
Marko had good reason to rush. Described by Serb businessmen as a vicious thug with a hair-trigger temper, the young Milosevic has many enemies. Business partners and opposition leaders say Marko was perhaps the greediest of five dozen regime insiders who raked in huge profits through a network of shady enterprises, including cigarette and oil trading, drug dealing and money laundering. Marko owned Serbia’s cigarette-import business and a chain of duty-free shops that brought in tens of millions of dollars a year....
Ambitious and farsighted ideas, but meanwhile the Army continues work on the Crusader, its latest “big gun”–a self-propelled, computer-aimed 155mm howitzer cannon built to rapid-fire while careering about the battlefield at 60 mph. The Army wants to buy 1,100 Crusaders at a cost of about $11 billion. The problem: the Crusader’s firing-control system is about as complex as that of a fighter plane and difficult to maintain under combat conditions....
Apologize to Andy Reid. MORE: Worse disaster: Eagles or Dolphins? | Sam Bradford still looks lost | Kelly: Blame the GM in the mirror Kelly should, Jeffrey Lurie should and so should the Eagles’ fans. Not all of them, just the ones who really bought the idea that anything Kelly did was perfect and above questioning. Because all of these people swallowed the notion that Reid’s players, his roster, his choices, had to be purged before Kelly could fulfill his destiny....
Think again. With NATO mired in an ugly war against Slobodan Milosevic’s Yugoslavia, celebration is hardly the order of the day. As their limousines grind through gridlock from one scaled-down event to another, NATO’s leaders will have ample time to reflect on their new circumstances. Kosovo has changed everything; if some good is to come out of the meeting this week, all those in Washington–American hosts and European guests–need to reflect on where their spring adventure has taken them....
Zinedine Zidane’s men saw Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo have legitimate penalty claims waved away in the first half at the Santiago Bernabeu, while good work from visiting goalkeeper Sergio Asenjo kept the hosts at bay. And Villarreal caught Madrid sleeping with a rapid counter-attack with just three minutes remaining, Pablo Fornals’ clever chipped finish sealing a famous first league win for the club at the Bernabeu. Madrid now have just one win in five LaLiga games and will be 19 points off the top if Barcelona beat Real Sociedad on Sunday, but defender Nacho insists the team are giving all they have....
Kelly said after the Fighting Irish's 29-16 victory over Rutgers in the Pinstripe Bowl that contract details were still being worked out and the new defensive coordinator would be "an outside" hire, though he declined to identify his choice. The NFL Network, citing unidentified sources, was first to report VanGorder was headed to Notre Dame. Kelly and VanGorder worked together at Grand Valley State from 1989-91. VanGorder is in his first season with the Jets....
Holtz on Wednesday criticized the Catholic faith of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, saying he was “Catholic in name only.” Holtz, who also accused Biden of being “radically pro-abortion,” led into his statement by mentioning he was the former Fighting Irish football coach and that the university has a statue of him on campus. “One of the important reasons (President Donald Trump) has my trust is because nobody is but a stronger advocate for the unborn than President Trump,” Holtz said....

Arenado needed little time to extend his string Wednesday night. He hit a two-run double in the first inning against the Texas Rangers to equal teammate Michael Cuddyer's 27-game streak from last season. Arenado's streak is the longest for anyone 23 years or younger since Albert Pujols had a 30-gamer in 2003 when he was 23. The streak for Arenado began April 9, a week before his 23rd birthday. According to Elias, his streak is the longest that began when a player was 22 or younger since Benito Santiago's 34-game hitting streak in 1987, which is still a major league rookie record....
‘Are you crazy?’ - Ronaldo angers Buddhists City trailed Barca by one goal when Bravo was sent off for handling outside the box after presenting Luis Suarez with a clear sight of goal. Messi, who had scored the first, went on to bag a hat trick as Neymar added the fourth late on after he had already seen a penalty saved by Willy Caballero. Nolito believes that the score line was harsh, however, and insists that City had been executing its gameplan well up until Bravo’s red card....
