MAURITIUS DEBRIS TO BE LOOKED AT BY MH370 INVESTIGATORS

1

Australia said that a piece of suspected airplane debris found east of Africa on a Mauritian island will be examined to see if it is part of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, which went missing two years ago in one of the world’s greatest aviation mysteries. A hotel owner on the island who saw the debris said it looked like it was from the inside of a plane, with what he thought was a wallpaper “design,” which if confirmed, would be the first piece of interior debris from the plane yet to be found. Australia has led the search for the plane, which went missing in March 2014 with 239 people on board on a flight from the Malaysian capital, Kuala Lumpur, to Beijing, and Transport Minister Darren Chester said the debris, found last week, was an “item of interest.” REUTERS

BARRON’S ENDORSES KASICH FOR PRESIDENT

2

Calling him “the best hope for investors who want a Republican in the White House,” Barron’s announced its support for Ohio Gov. John Kasich for president with a front-page editorial in its latest hard-copy edition. Barron’s had previously endorsed Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton as a preferred choice over the current front-runner for the Republican Party’s presidential nomination, Donald Trump, but in its editorial the weekly newspaper said that Kasich, “outshines them both.” “Unlike Clinton, Kasich has a sensible across-the-board tax-cutting agenda for corporations, individuals, and investors,” the editorial written by Barron’s executive editor, John Kimelman, said. “And as a Republican president working with a presumably GOP-controlled Congress, he would be a more effective leader.” REUTERS

TESLA SAYS MODEL 3 ORDERS TOP $10B IN FIRST 36 HOURS

3

Tesla Motors Inc. said orders for its new Model 3 electric sedan topped 253,000 in the first 36 hours — a fast start for the company’s first mass-market vehicle, which may not begin to reach customers for another 18 months or more. Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk tweeted on Friday that the Model 3, which is slated to go into production in late 2017, will sell at an average price of $42,000, including the price of options and additional features, which would give the initial flurry of orders an estimated retail value of $10.6 billion. That intense interest, fanned in part by a steady stream of tweets by Musk, could help boost Tesla’s stock price, which closed Friday at $237.59, up 3.4 percent. REUTERS

BOLARIS’ WEATHER WATCH: THROWING OUT SNOWBALLS INSTEAD OF BASEBALLS This is going to be one wild April week, with extremes in temperatures and precipitation. If you want to talk about the full weather gamut ranging from rain to snow, from freeze to warmth, this week will have it. And by looking at the long-range models, April might turn out to be colder than March. It’s also the opening week for the baseball season. The New York Yankees have their home opener today and the rain falling this afternoon could change over to wet snow towards game’s end. It could be worse: Back on April 6, 1982, the game was cancelled due to a full-blown blizzard, really baseball season in the Northern states should not start until May 1. I’ve been advocating this for years as the fans suffer the most. You’ll be freezing your plants off come

Tuesday morning as the mercury drops into January like levels back down into the 20s and crops, if not protected, and tender plants could suffer major damage. On Wednesday morning, expect more widespread freeze and frost across the entire Northeast, but temperatures will start to rise back into the seasonably cool 50s. At the same time a more southerly flow on Thursday will send readings back to the unseasonably mild side along with a pretty good chance of widespread heavy showers and storms developing. Record cold to strike this Friday into Saturday. A record setting Arctic air mass will invade the entire Northeast during this time frame as temperatures come Friday night and again on Saturday night will spiral down into the teens with some of the

Models right now have no clue, waffling from just about nothing, to snow showers and on a couple of runs a major snowstorm basically from the Philly to NYC with the best chance across Eastern Long Island and the Boston region. Confidence in forecast is very low at this time. What I do know, you will need more than just a baseball glove for this upcoming Friday into the weekend.

Did You Know? If you were injured in an accident on a bus, train or trolley, and you paid your fare with a Weekly or Monthly Pass, that Pass may be a critical piece of evidence for you.

All of those things may become important if you need to pursue a claim for compensation for your injuries.

Most buses, trains and trolleys now have video cameras.

But that information may only be saved for a few months after you swipe your card.

The information that is recorded by the bar-code swipe from your Weekly or Monthly Pass will document the fact that you got on the bus, train or trolley, the vehicle number, and possibly even the identity of the operator.

If you have been injured on a bus, train or trolley and you boarded with a Weekly or Monthly Pass, save the Pass and make a photocopy of it. Report the incident promptly, and include a copy of the Pass’ barcode.

Amtrak derailment kills two, injures 35 Emergency personnel investigate the crash site of Amtrak Palmetto Train 89. GETTY IMAGES

An Amtrak train locomotive partly derailed when it hit a backhoe south of Philadelphia on Sunday, killing two people and injuring 35 in what passengers described as a jolt followed by a fireball. The accident in Chester, about 15 miles

southwest of Philadelphia, was the latest in a series involving the U.S. passenger rail carrier and occurred several miles south of the site of a 2015 derailment in North Philadelphia that claimed eight lives. Amtrak Train 89 bound for Savannah, Georgia, from New York with 341 passengers and seven crew aboard struck a vehicle on the tracks, Chester Fire Commissioner Travis Thomas said. Amtrak said the vehicle was a backhoe. “We had two deceased, but they were not passengers on the train,” he told a news conference. He gave no details about those killed. Thomas said 35 people were taken to hospitals and none of the injuries were life-threatening. Philadelphia’s NBC10 quoted investigators as saying those killed were Amtrak workers with more than 40 years of service between them. Television images showed the lead engine with its front end partially off the rails and its windshields smashed. Kim Goldman, of Washington, D.C., who was among hundreds of passengers taken to a

nearby church, said she felt a bump, followed by skidding similar to airplane turbulence that lasted five to 10 seconds. “We knew we hit something. We were just holding on, hoping we would stop,” said Goldman, who was in the second car. Crew members told passengers to move to the back of the train. Amtrak suspended service between Philadelphia and Wilmington, Delaware. A broader suspension of service between New York and Philadelphia was lifted. Amtrak said investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board were en route. The accident took place about 20 miles south of one of Amtrak’s deadliest recent accidents. Eight people were killed and 43 hurt last May when a New Yorkbound train derailed in north Philadelphia. That train was traveling at more than twice the speed limit, but a federal investigation determined that the cause of the crash remained unexplained. Last month, about three dozen people were injured when an Amtrak passenger train derailed in Kansas. REUTERS

John Fetterman landed with a splash in a tall pint of beer at Fishtown’s Interstate Drafthouse on Sunday. The brash mayor of Braddock, a former steel town outside Pittsburgh with a population of around 2,100, is taking grassroots-style campaigning statewide as he seeks the Democratic nomi-

nation for Senate. He’s facing off against mainstream candidates Joe Sestak and Kate McGinty. The winner will go against incumbent Republican Sen. Pat Toomey in November. A stint with Americorps originally put the York native in Braddock, where in 2005 he decided to run for mayor, winning by one provisional vote. Since then he has gotten national attention for policies to rebuild the town. He is also known for tattooing the ZIP code of the town on one arm and the nine dates of town residents’ deaths — most of them by gun — on the other other. Why did you endorse self-described “Democratic socialist” Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders for presi-

dent? I think making sure everybody makes at least $15 an hour for the work that they do, I don’t see that as hurting anybody. I don’t see wanting to have universal health care as hurting anybody. I don’t see wanting to have low or no-cost college tuition hurting anybody. I don’t see making student loan debt manageable and … and the ability to refinance your student loan debt hurting anybody. Why are you running as a a Democrat?

Right or wrong, we have basically a two-party system. Most of my positions could never find a home in the Republican Party, but at least some of my positions find a home in the Democratic Party, even if they’re out-

BRIEF Thousands attend rally in Warsaw against proposed abortion ban Thousands attended an abortion rights rally outside parliament in Warsaw after the powerful leader of Poland’s ruling party backed a call by Polish Catholic bishops for a full ban on pregnancy terminations. Poland already has one of the most restrictive abortion laws in the European Union. Official statistics show only several hundred

abortions are performed every year, but pro-choice campaigners say underground abortions are very common. The debate around reproductive rights has been building up for months. The conservative Law and Justice Party, which came to power in October, plans to tighten regulations to bring them into line with the Catholic Church’s teachings, infuriating liberals and women’s rights activists. Chanting “keep your hands

off the uterus” and “my body, my business,” the protesters waved wire coat hangers, a crude pregnancy termination tool widely seen as a grim symbol of the abortion underground. “Even Iran’s abortion laws are more liberal than this proposal, that’s why we must protest,” said Marta Nowak, one the protesters at the rally, which was organized via social media by the left-wing Together Party. Poland currently allows

terminating pregnancy only at an early stage and when it threatens the life or health of the mother, when the baby is likely to be permanently handicapped or when pregnancy originates from a crime, for example rape or incest. In a letter read out in churches across the country on Sunday, but made public earlier this week, Polish bishops called for legislative action to tighten the 1993 regulation. REUTERS

The returns are a key part of an agreement between the European Union and Turkey aimed at ending the uncontrollable influx into Europe of refugees and migrants fleeing war and misery in the Middle East, Asia and Africa. There was little sign of preparation on either side of the Aegean less than 24 hours before Greece was due to begin returning migrants to Turkey, and Greek and Turkish officials gave conflicting information on the logistics of the plan. Under the deal, those who cross into Greece illegally will be held and sent back once their asylum applications are processed. For every Syrian returned, one Syrian will be resettled to Europe directly from Turkey. So far, more than 6,000 migrants and refugees have been registered on Greek islands since March 20, the date on which the agreement came into force. Where they will depart from, to

where they will be sent and even how many people will be taken back to Turkey under this deal on Monday remains unclear. On Sunday, there were few signs that Lesbos, the island hundreds of thousands of people passed through on their way to northern Europe, was getting ready to send back migrants. A police spokesman said the force was still awaiting instructions. Across the Aegean in the coastal town of Dikili, which a Turkish official said would receive refugees sent back from Greece, just two roomsize tents were set up on the pier of its cramped port on Saturday. Two portable toilets were installed nearby. Further south, four small blue tents were set upon the town of Cesme for those sent back from the Greek island of Chios. Turkey’s interior minister, Efkan Ala, was quoted by the progovernment newspaper Aksam as saying 500 people were expected in Turkey from Greece on Monday. Afghans, Iraqis and Pakistanis would be deported to their countries, he said. REUTERS

Donald Trump’s prediction that the U.S. economy was on the verge of a “very massive recession” hit a wall of skepticism on Sunday from economists who questioned the Republican presidential front-runner’s calculations. “We’re not heading for a recession, massive or minor, and the unemployment rate is not 20 percent,” said Harm Bandholz, chief U.S.

economist at UniCredit Research in New York. The official unemployment rate has declined to 5 percent from

a peak of 10 percent in October 2009, according to government statistics. But a different, broader measure of

unemployment that includes people who want to work but have given up searching and those working part-time because they cannot find full-time employment is at 9.8 percent. “I think we’re sitting on an economic bubble. A financial bubble,” Trump said. While calling it a bubble might be a stretch, the fall in corporate profits and the recent rally in stock prices has pushed up the market’s valuation, and stocks on balance are about 15 percent pricier at the moment than their long-term average valuation. But a cataclysmic economic downturn originating in the United States appears to be a remote possibility. REUTERS

RACE FOR THE WHITE HOUSE

CHEESEHEAD ALERT! Candidates love coming up with cheesy slogans so this week they should feel at home as Wisconsin holds its presidential primaries. But the savvy Cheeseheads are a tough crowd, not easily taken in by smooth talking politicos. All eyes in D.C. are looking west where we ďŹ nd my three things to watch this week in politics. 1. LIKE A BADGER Bernie Sanders is hanging on with a tenacity well-suited to the Badger State. Polls suggest he has a good shot at winning there, and that means Hillary Clinton will have to keep dividing her forces: fending o his challenge while simultaneously trying to turn her attention to the Republicans. She has already bristled on camera at some members of the Bernie Army for pressing her at public events — and they’d love to provoke more of the same. Keep an eye out for more Bernsters trying to prod her into a street ďŹ ght, while their man keeps grinding away at her lead.

TOM FOREMAN Opinion CNN’s Tom Foreman is the author of the new book “My Year of Running Dangerously.�

2. CRUZ CONTROL Ted Cruz keeps trailing Donald Trump in the Republican contest— but with everyone but John Kasich out of the race, Cruz is ďŹ nally

close to the two man ďŹ ght he wanted. He’s hitting Wisconsin with everything, hoping to score with evangelicals. But what you really need to watch is the #AnyoneButTrump movement. If Cruz can get that ďŹ re burning hotter, it could engulf a lot of voters and give Trump his ďŹ rst serious worries in this race. 3. DAMAGE CONTROL Speaking of Trump, everyone knows he’s been — to borrow a phrase — the Teon Don. He’s said things that would have destroyed any typical candidate. But did you notice all the land mines he stepped on last week? More importantly, did you notice his quick steps to tamp down the turmoil that followed? Looks to me like Trump is making a pivot; he may still say outlandish things, but he’s started cleaning up the messes much more quickly. Don’t just watch the vote. Watch for movement in his approval ratings to see if it is working.

BRIEF Bernie Sanders’ ghost tweeter keeps his Brooklyn accent Last August, Bernie Sanders sat on a Craigslist-bought beige couch in his Washington oďŹƒce plotting to steal the social media spotlight from 10 Republicans taking the stage for the ďŹ rst televised debate of the 2016 presidential campaign. Next to the Democratic presidential candidate, 74, sat 27-year-old Hector Sigala, his digital media director. For the next two hours, Sigala turned Sanders’ sometimes acerbic, sometimes funny running commentary into a stream of 140-character tweets using the hashtag #DebateWithBernie that stole the show - at least on Twitter. Some 17 million people were reached during the debate, according to the campaign’s Twitter data reviewed by Reuters. It was the ďŹ rst in a string of Twitter wins by Sanders during a presidential contest widely viewed as a coming-ofage moment for social media in national politics. REUTERS

Kashkari takes on Wall Street from farm-rich Fed region From his seat atop the Fed’s smallest bank, in a region known for fracking, farming and ranching, Neel Kashkari wants to make sure he’s heard well beyond the northern plains. Since becoming president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis this year, the 42-year-old Kashkari has gone on a media blitz, visiting nine major media outlets in two days and creating a Twitter hashtag to promote his view that the biggest U.S. banks should break up. On Monday, he will host a symposium at his bank in downtown Minneapolis entitled “Ending Too Big To Fail,� giving fierce critics of Wall Street’s behemoths a platform to present their views. Becoming the Fed’s bad cop is the latest ambitious move in a high-flying career that has taken

Kashkari from Goldman Sachs to the Treasury Department at the height of the financial crisis to a run for California governor. “He’s trying to swing way above the weight of the Minneapolis Fed. He didn’t come from California just to rub elbows with ranchers in Helena,� said Dick Bove, an analyst with Rafferty Capital Markets, referring to the capital of Montana, a state in the Minneapolis Fed’s region. Kashkari’s critics argue

he is using the “too big to failâ€? issue as a springboard to higher places of authority. He says he’s only working toward prudent financial regulation. Kashkari’s crusade kicked off with a Feb. 16 speech, in which he compared the aftermath of large bank failures to that of a nuclear reactor meltdown. He told Reuters a few days later that the symposium is intended to come up with a plan to prevent big banks from receiving big taxpayer bailouts, the way they did

in 2008. At Treasury, he ran the Troubled Asset Relief Program, which infused $700 billion into banks, automakers and insurers. The bailout played an important role in stabilizing the financial system during the crisis, but remains controversial. Kashkari now says “bolder, transformational optionsâ€? are needed beyond a post-crisis regulation that requires big banks to outline plans to unwind themselves if they fail — known as their “living wills.â€? Kashkari launched a social media campaign with the hashtag #EndingTBTF to promote his event and encourage the public to contribute ideas. He has amassed 10,300 followers on Twitter, where his retweets of economic news mix with musings on the superiority of Yuengling beer and photos of his dogs. REUTERS

Drew Barrymore headed to divorce court Well, that was quick. Drew Barrymore and Will Kopelman have confirmed reports that they are divorcing after almost four years of marriage. “Sadly our family is separating legally, although we do not feel this takes away from us being a family,� the pair said in a joint statement to People magazine. “Divorce might make one feel like a failure, but eventually you start to find grace in the idea that life goes on.� Hey, who are you trying to convince here? “Our children are our universe, and we look forward to living the rest of our lives with them as the first priority,� the statement adds. Those children are daughters Olive, 3, and Frankie, 1, who will most likely continue to live in New York City, extremely nosey sources assure us.

Noted Hollywood nice guy Bradley Cooper has made a habit of bringing his mom along as his date for big events — awards shows, film festivals, etc. — but this might be going a step too far. When Guns N’ Roses announced their surprise show at the Troubadour in L.A. Friday night — the first show featuring Axl Rose and guitarist Slash together in more than 22 years — Cooper had only one person in mind to take along as his plus-one: mom Gloria Campano. Which is sweet and all,

but shouldn’t it have given the rest of the crowd pause? Like, is a Guns N’ Roses reunion really so cool if Bradley Cooper is bringing his mom to it? No word yet on whether Campano plans on following the band around all summer on tour, but fingers crossed.Â

the cast and crew said they were hoping that she was going to be the person that they used to love watching on TV,â€? a source says. Yeah, about that: “Some people are claiming that Mischa is the most self-entitled and rude celebrity that the employees of the show have ever had to work with,â€? the source explains. “She does not discriminate who she is rude to either.â€? I mean, considering the list of “starsâ€? who have been on that show, that’s really saying something. But hey, a title is a title, right?Â

Charlize Theron is glad she didn’t get along with Tom Hardy It’s no secret by now that “Mad Max: Fury Road� costars Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy did not get along — not at all. Theron has been very candid about their cattiness, even revealing last year that Hardy had given her a self-portrait as a wrap gift that contained the message, “You are an absolute nightmare, but you are also f—ing awesome. I’ll kind of miss you.� Well, looking back now, Theron thinks it was all worth

it. “From what I hear, he’s not like that on every movie. I hear he’s had good experiences,â€? she tells WSJ magazine. “Maybe the movie is what it is because we struggled so much with each other, and those characters had to struggle so much with each other. If we were chum-chum, maybe the movie would have been 10 times worse.â€? That’s some impressive looking-on-the-brightside kind of thinking right there, ma’am.Â

20 FILM

Glen Powell was left dazed and confused The 27-year-old actor had the best time making Richard Linklater’s “Everybody Wants Some!!” MATT PRIGGE @mattprigge

matt.prigge@metro.us

Glen Powell can’t say enough great things about Richard Linklater. The actor is one of the 12 main characters in “Everybody Wants Some!!,” the director’s “spiritual sequel” to “Dazed and Confused” — that’s to say it’s set in 1980, not 1976, but hits the same hangout sweet spot. Powell plays Finnegan, one of the older ones in a pack of collegiate baseballers. The actor is also one of the more experienced. In a cadre of mostly fresh faces, Powell, 27, is one you might recognize — underneath a shaggy mustache and a permanent toothy smile — given his time on “Scream Queens” and in “The Expendables 3.”

Given everyone’s chemistry, mistry, have you spent much time with your fellow castmates mates since the movie wrapped? ped?

Tell you the truth, ever ver since we stopped filming ming we’ve never stopped hanging out. That’s rare. Some of these movies es you say, “Oh, we’re going to hang out afterwards,” then life gets in the way. But with us, there will always be a group text. We’re always hanging out, always kicking it, going to each other’s houses. It’s a really solid, special group of dudes. I don’t see the band breaking up anytime soon.

rehearsal, then you go in the pool, you go for a run. Then we’d watch a movie Rick think is pertinent. I’m not sure I’ll have another film experience that was this special. You’re down there with 12 guys who are crazy talented, crazy cool, and not one of them is a jerk. It’s amazing he was able to round up 12 actors who seem to really get along.

Apparently there were a couple people on “Dazed and Confused” who weren’t exactly nice or generous actors. Through the rehearsal process Rick kept coming up to me and saying, “Hey, are you getting along with everybody? Is everybody happy?” He’d ask me that every couple days. What he was trying to do is sniff out if there is a kind of rat among

It really looks like it was summer camp.

During the rehearsall period, all 12 of us were in these bunkbeds eds at Rick [Linklater]’s ranch. You wake up, you shower, usually in the he pool, you go and rehearse earse in Rick’s library. Then n you play baseball for a bit, you do some more re

On Finnegan There’s even this strong sense that most of them aren’t committed to playing baseball after college. With Finnegan, we always talked about him as this guy who is going to live on a yacht for a bit with a bunch of supermodels. Then he’s going to be president of the United States. Then he’s

us — something rotten in Denmark. And there just never was. You actually had a small role in Linklater’s “Fast Food Nation” when you were 16. What are your memories of that?

I wound up breaking my arm a week-and-a-half before filming. I had to call Rick and tell him to please not fire me. He was like, “Dude, there

going to invent something, then be some Fortune 500 CEO, and then give it all away to live in Africa. He said Finnegan should come across as what you think is the most interesting man in the world before he becomes the most interesting man in the world. He’s a guy who likes to experience the best things in life — and he will, because he’s got a sense of play that’s infectious.

was always a guy in high school who broke his arm. That’s amazing! It’s so authentic and real!” It wasn’t just that he wasn’t upset; he was excited by the fact that he was going to have a kid with a cast in his movie. That speaks to Rick: He’s not a guy who holds onto his vision too tightly. That’s why his movies feel authentic and organic.

In 2014, Philly Wine Week was but a baby, the love child of William Eccleston — the general manager and sommelier at Ristorante Panorama in the Penn’s View Hotel — and Kate Moroney from Vintage Wine Bar & Bistro in Midtown Village. Their goal then, as it is now, was to show off how Philly restaurants and wine bars are, in Eccleston’s words, “showing incredible creativity, value and variety in the wine experience.� For its 2016 iteration, Philly Wine Week (April 3-10) offers special access and recognition to all things wine at 55 restaurants and bars throughout the city, “nearly triple the amount we started PWW

ers never forget, though, and most restaurant events and tastings start with bubbles automatically.� (Eccleston also reminds us that “great bubbles� are available in a staggering range of styles and price points). One of the most fun Philly Wine Week events — after its opening night salvo at Stratus Lounge — is the “Grape vs. Grain� battle at Johnny Brenda’s, which is obviously a way to poke fun at this area’s craft beer fascination as well as taking the seriousness out of wine snobbery. “You definitely touched on a theme that’s very successful — to embrace friendly and playful competition,� he says pointing to additional PWW events such as Natural Wine vs. Funky Beer comparison tastings or Wine Quizzo. “We’re certainly ringing all the bells that wine can be fun, demystified and enjoyed every day without breaking the bank.�

Snooki returns to her Jersey Shore roots “Nicole & Jionni’s Shore Flip” sounds pretty flippin’ exciting. JAMIE PRIMEAU @MetroPhilly letters@metro.us

Even though she got her start fist-pumping and partying on MTV’s “Jersey Shore,” Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi is more than ready to move on. “I’m trying to get away from all that, because it’s been five years now and I’m trying to show people who I am today,” says the 28-year-old, who recently returned to her beachy roots for an entirely different reason: to film her new show “Nicole and Jionni’s Shore Flip.” On the reality series, she and her husband, Jionni LaVelle, are tackling the real estate market and flipping a house. But don’t expect any cameos from “Jersey Shore” pals like JWoww or Pauly D. “Even though we’re all still friends, I’m trying to keep it between me and my husband, because this is our project,”

Polizzi explains.

Leaving her party days behind “Obviously all of our lives are different,” Polizzi says, when asked how she’s changed since “Jersey Shore” ended in 2012. “I have two kids now and I’m married. It was kind of like my college years. Like everyone, they go to college, they grow up, they settle down. So it’s kind of the transition that I’ve made.” Her children, Lorenzo and Giovanna, even make cameos on the show. Of course, she still has love for her old roommates, adding, “I do miss hanging out with the roomies, but as far as partying all summer, I’ve been doing that since I was like 16, so I’m over it.”

Rebuilding the shore So, why flip houses? “It was a goal that Jionni and I always wanted to accomplish, because we loved building our house so much from scratch,”

she says. “Everybody is flipping houses, so we wanted to jump on the bandwagon.” But it goes even deeper than that. “We also wanted to try to help out the shore, because things are still devastated from [Hurricane] Sandy, so we wanted to give back to the community and make it beautiful again.”

She’ll be tuning in, too To get the full viewer experience, Polizzi admits, “I’m watching [the episodes] for the first time with everybody else. I always like to watch my shows like it’s not me, just a viewer watching and getting my actual reaction.” As for what she’s seen so far, she says, “I’m just laughing. I love it. I think we’re so cute as a couple, and it definitely shows the people we are, so it’s true to our characters. ... Even though it’s a flipping show, we still have fun. It’s one of my favorite shows that I’ve ever done.”

“Jersey Shore Flip” airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on FYI. GETTY IMAGES

Expert weighs in on new Instagram change Social media expert Eliane Roes chimes in on the switch to algorithmic timelines. Instagram plans to change to “algorithmic timelines� that sort posts according to users’ interests rather than listing images in chronological order — the same system that Facebook uses for its news feed. The move has sparked controversy on social media and to a petition called “Keep Instagram Chronological,� which has already reached more than 325,000 signatures. Eliane Roest, a media adviser and Instagram expert, explains what to expect from the forthcoming changes.

that 30 percent of posts will be affected by the move. But once you scroll down, your original feed will appear. So they’re not taking any posts away, they’re actually making things a bit better. That said, Instagram hasn’t made the move yet. It announced a coming move about a certain algorithm; but for now, they’re still testing. What are the biggest challenges that Instagram is facing?

Is your social media presence more important than your SAT score? As if the college application process wasn’t stressful enough. ALIZAH SALARIO @Alirosa

alizah.salario@metro.us

Not long ago, the first crop of college applicants to come of age with social media was unknowingly committing online faux pas. It was a more innocent time, back when no one thought twice about posting Facebook photos while playing underaged beer pong. By now, we’ve all heard the cautionary tales about career and

college dreams quashed by online stupidity, and (hopefully) learned from others’ mistakes. Today, it’s a given that college admissions officers will peruse applicants’ social media profiles. But as we’ve become savvier, social media has become more ubiquitous — and weighted more heavily in college admissions. We connected with Dr. Kat Cohen, the founder and CEO of educational consulting company IvyWise and author of “The Truth About Getting In� and “Rock Hard Apps.� Cohen explains why social media can still come

page, so we are definitely seeing a rise in interest.

For a while now, college admissions oďŹƒcers have considered applicants’ online presence. Are they placing more emphasis on it than in the past? Yes. Kaplan’s most recent survey of college admissions officers states that 40 percent have visited an applicant’s social media page to learn more about them. This is an increase from the previous year’s survey, in which 35 percent of admissions officers visited an applicant’s

Are current college applicants smarter about privacy, as compared with the ďŹ rst waves of students to come of age with social media? More students are becoming more aware, but many of them have a false sense of security when they use apps like SnapChat, where they think their images go away after a couple of seconds. Many times, when a school investigates a student’s social pres-

ence, it is as a result of a tip from someone else about their bad behavior online — such as from a “frenemy.� A school is then required to look into the report.

Do you see social media becoming yet another thing to “excel� at — college applicants “prepping� their online presence, similar to the way their prep for tests? Currently there are social sites geared toward just creating profiles for the admissions process, like ZeeMee. Students are

constantly online and connected, so it was only a matter of time before startups tapped into this idea of utilizing social media to help admission chances. It is early to tell, since the Coalition for Access, Affordability and Success hasn’t even launched yet, but the virtual locker they have as part of the application [where students can upload videos, photos and written work] could lead to more online/social activity being showcased as part of the college application.

Mission impossible: Can you plan a wedding and work full-time? Most couples do part of the prep for their nuptials on the job. ALIZAH SALARIO @Alirosa

alizah.salario@metro.us

With wedding season just around the corner, many couples are gearing up to tie the knot. That means brides and grooms-to-be organizing their own nuptials will find weddingrelated tasks seeping into work hours. Especially future brides. Nine in 10 women say they put some company time into planning their wedding, and 90 percent of brides said their fiances devoted less time to wedding planning than they did, according to a survey from Forbes

and TheKnot.com. Dr. Amanda Miller, a professor of sociology at the University of Indianapolis, says this gender divide can make it harder for working women to balance their jobs with wedding prep. “Women are getting married at older ages than in the past, which likely means they are in jobs that have higher levels of responsibility,” she says. “Your 30s is often when [you’re] more indispensable in the workplace.” Here are a few tips for working women who want to avoid a pre-wedding meltdown.

Listen up, type As: You can’t do it all alone, so take people up on their offers to help. “Especially if you’re sort of looking at this as a life crisis — balancing your work life and your wedding planning life — take people up on their offers of assistance, either in planning the wedding or in taking on tasks at work,” says Jellison. Can you balance a stressful 9-to-5 with prepping for the big day? ISTOCK

tions about gender and weddings. “The pressure to plan a big extravaganza probably came about after the Princess Diana [wedding] in 1981,” says Dr. Katherine Jellison, author of “It’s Our Day: America’s Love Affair With the White Wedding, 1945-2005” and

Know when to unplug Sites like Pinterest and Etsy have ostensibly made wedding planning easier but not a time saver, suggests Jellison. “It reminds me of the argument early in the 20th century that if women had all the right electrical appli-

ances in their household, housework would take up less time, and then just the opposite happened: You had all the equipment that was supposed to make it easier, so tasks that you maybe did once a week you did everyday, like wash the clothes. And so technological innovation might change the labor involved, but it often times extends the amount of time involved,” she says. ”

Take it in stride Lastly, keep things in perspective. Says Miller, “Just know that something inevitably will go wrong, and that might end up being your favorite part of the entire experience. ”

Villanova still has a lot left to prove against North Carolina in title game After the most onesided Final Four victory of all time, what can the Wildcats do for an encore? JON MARKS @MetroPhilly

sports@metro.us

There was no way to describe it — or even believe what you were witnessing — whether you were among Vice President Joe Biden and the 75,000 inside Houston’s NRG Stadium or simply watching from your living room. Villanova’s 95-51 destruction of an Oklahoma team that had whipped them by 23 points back in December to advance to tonight’s National Championship Game versus North Carolina was mesmerizing. But old timers will note it’s not the first time the Wildcats have put togeth-

er such a dominant performance under the NCAA glare. In fact the first time the Cats made it to the title game — ultimately losing to UCLA in Houston in 1971 — the only reason they got there was by avenging a regular season loss. In the East Regional Final, Howard Porter and the Wildcats took apart previously unbeaten city rival Penn — which had beaten them 78-70 earlier — 90-47. This was at least as impressive. Shooting a torrid 71.4 percent from the floor while limiting Buddy Hield and company to just 31.7 percent in setting a record for the most lopsided game in Final Four history, Jay Wright’s 34-5 team was in command from the time it strung together a 12-0 first half run to go up 28-17. Then, just when it appeared the Sooners might be on verge

“We’ve been around enough basketball that we got to put that behind us, not expect to play that way. We know we’re going to play a really tough team.” Villanova head coach Jay Wright of climbing back from a 42-28 half deficit, the Wildcats put an emphatic stamp on the game, going on a dazzling 25-0 run over the next seven minutes to settle the issue. By the time the rout was over — and Nova’s three senior walk-ons were playing out the string — the only question remaining was will they have anything left for the tall and talented Tar Heels? “That was just one of those games that could happen to anybody and I feel bad for Oklahoma

that it happened to them in the Final Four,” said Wright, diplomatically, after Josh Hart (23 points, 8 rebounds), Kris Jenkins (18) and the rest completed a incredible 67-point turnaround from their previous meeting. “We had one of those games where we just make every shot. It was kind of similar to our game in Hawaii when they made everything (shooting 14for-26, 54 percent, from behind the arc) and we couldn’t make anything (going 4-for-32 on threes). It was simply one of those

nights. Tonight we were very dialed in defensively.” On the first possession of the game, Hield drilled a step-back 3-pointer. It turned out to be his only trey of the game, as he missed his last seven three-balls and finished just 4-for-12 for 9 points, his second lowest game of the season. “Today we were just so dialed in,” explained Hart, who’ll now try to do his thing against Carolina’s imposing front line of Brice Johnson, Justin Jackson and Kennedy Meeks. “We saw what they did to us in Pearl Harbor and were dialed in defensively, ready to step up for each other.” The Wildcats swarmed Hield whenever he got the ball, forcing bad shots which often led to easy transition hoops at the other end. And by knock-

ing down shots while not turning the ball over, they completely negated Oklahoma’s lethal fast break, which further frustrated the Sooners, who managed to shoot only 6-for-27 from long distance. The end result was Villanova’s fourth blowout in five tournament games, setting the Cats up for the ultimate test with a North Carolina team that was ranked No. 1 in the preseason but hadn’t lived up to its billing until now. This will mark the fourth time since 2005 they’ve met in the tournament — including the 2009 Final Four — with Carolina winning them all. Most recent came in 2013 when Nova’s Ryan Arcidiacono and Daniel Ochefu fell to the Heels, 78-71 in the first round. In fact, only once in six tries has Villanova beaten UNC in the Big Dance —

56-44 in the 1985 Southeast Regional Final in Birmingham, Alabama. Everyone knows what happened after that. Monday at 9:19 on TBS, Jay Wright’s team will try to match what that Rollie Massimino club did in Lexington. “That whole team brings that magical un-

derdog feeling, like anything’s possible,â€? said Wright, who’s hoping Massimino — dealing with family health issues — will be on hand. “Those guys are so special. I don’t want that team to ever lose their magic and I don’t think they will. “But I’d love our team to do it.â€?

Logic says North Carolina is simply too big and too skilled for this team, most of which probably couldn’t crack Roy Williams rotation. Then again there’s been nothing logical about the way Villanova has gone about its business — especially Saturday. So why start now?

Phillies preview: Who are these guys? Metro breaks down the (few) familiar and (many) new faces heading to South Philly this year. KYLE PHILLIPPI @Kyle_Phillippi sports@metro.us

Ever look through an old high school yearbook that didn’t belong to you or, in some cases, even your own yearbook if you went to a large school? You scroll through the pages with intrigue trying to find someone you recognize. You pick out a few familiar faces but the rest are pretty foreign to you. That may very well be the fan’s perspective when they begin watching the Phillies on Opening Day this Monday: The familiar faces:

1B Ryan Howard, C Carlos Ruiz These are the only two remaining players from

the 2008 World Series team. They’re the most identifiable players, but they’re also shells of their former selves as they both begin the year in platoon situations entering the season. Howard could very well be moved at the trade deadline if the Phillies can strike a deal with an interested party.

spring for the final spot and will be fun to watch as he continues developing his mid-90s fast ball. The “vaguely know of them” faces:

The “you know a lot about them” faces

3B Maikel Franco, SP Aaron Nola, SS Freddy Galvis, 1B Darin Ruf, CF Odubel Herrera This is the group that fans are probably the most excited about, particularly with Franco and Nola. That duo will act as the faces of this franchise and the central building blocks of the future. Franco tore spring training up, lacing nine home runs with 23 RBI -— both led all of MLB. Meanwhile, Nola will assume the role of the team’s ace and is expected to take that next

step in his progression going into his first full big league season. The “somewhat know of them” faces:

SPs Jerad Eickhoff and Vince Velasquez

While not on Nola’s projected track, these two have bright futures in the Phillies rotation. Eickhoff compiled a 2.65 ERA and a 3-3 record in eight starts last season. Velasquez was the prized piece in the Cole Hamels deal. He beat out Adam Morgan this

C Cameron Rupp, SP Jeremy Hellickson, SP Charlie Morton, RP David Hernandez, OF Tyler Goeddel, OF Peter Bourjos, 2B Cesar Hernandez, IF Andres Blanco Many of these faces have been around the league such as Hellickson, Morton, Hernandez, Bourjos and Blanco. Hellickson, 28, was a highly-touted prospect with Tampa Bay just a few years back but has bounced around a bit since. Morton is expected to be an innings-eater this season while Hernandez will assume the closer’s role when he comes back from a sore elbow. Bourjos will start in one of the corner outfield spots while Blanco will once again be a reliable utility player off the bench.

The other three — Goeddel, Hernandez and Rupp — could all be starters on Opening Day. Hernandez will be back as the starting second baseman. All signs point to Rupp and Ruiz sharing catching duties this season in what will be a makeshift platoon. The “never heard of them” faces:

OF Emmanuel Burris, OF Cedric Hunter, RP Daniel Stumpf, RP Jeanmar Gomez, RP Brett Oberholtzer, RP Dalier Hinojosa, RP Hector Neris, RP James Russell Six of these are relievers: Stumpf, Gomez, Oberholtzer, Hinojosa, Neris and Russell. These are arms that have traveled around the league and landed in Philadelphia’s bullpen to start this season. Hunter has been the surprise of the spring, batting .262 with 13 RBI and will come off the bench along with Burris.
