If the whole serving in elected office thing ever stops working out, its clear that Reps. Aaron Schock and Paul Ryan can take their show on the road.

At a fundraiser at Five Points Washington on Thursday night, the two made it clear that they have quite a connection and even better comedic timing together.

Not only did they share quips about government, they razzed each other about their workout routines the duo frequently exercise together before getting down to congressional business and even traded barbs about their political futures.

For the record, Ryan pushed the Peoria Republican to seek re-election to the House in 2014 he didnt mention the alternative, a bid for Illinois governor and noted that Schock is one voice other Republicans listen to on Capitol Hill. Schock was the one who playfully asked Ryan whether or not he was mulling a 2016 presidential bid.

In short, its easy to see why and how they get along.

Of course, there was a bit of a fly in the ointment, at least for this listener at the event.

Ryan was asked a garden-variety question about how to deal with the liberal media.

And, no. Im not going to fight that characterization, not at the national level though I would point out, that Schock has certainly enjoyed generally favorable press within his district.

Instead, what irked me was Ryans suggested solution. It was, verbatim:

What I like is the fact that we have new media that gives us the ability to circumvent filters and go straight to people. So, sure, you have headwinds when it comes to the media. But with new technology today decentralizing the dissemination of information, Im not as concerned about it as, say, I would have been in the past. And so, what really matters is we get our message out, we go straight to people and you help us. The best information is that which came from a trusted source: your friend on Facebook, a friend of yours who sent you a link, a twitter on somebodys Twitter page that you follow. These things can circumvent these filters, and we can get truth to people, and thats what were going to have to rely upon as conservatives.

DEAR EDITOR: One of the foremost meanings of the word press is to bear down upon. Maybe thats the one the local media decided to adopt, for it seems the possess a morbid and resolute urge to belittle the members of the Peoples Partnership government, even if they have to concoct a story. Hardly a day passes without the local press muckraking the Prime Minister and her Cabinet. The most egregious examples are undoubtedly how the Attorney General and the National Security Minister are singled out for special treatment. Never before in our history has any Government official been put under the microscope unduly as those two. Not for all the tea in China would I trade places with them! Recently in England the mainstream media was exposed for indulging in downright illegal tactics in pursuit of headlines. Their outlandish policies culminated in an innocent and dedicated nurse taking her own life after being pranked to reveal details about a royal patient, all for the sake of a scoop. Just this week we observed how a popular TV host was fined $30,000 for showing videos of a sexual assault in progress. Given that crimes are generally under-reported, who is to tell the true extent of havoc visited upon Trinidadians due to press slackness? Inspired as we are by England, we need to take careful note of the Draft Royal Charter on Self-Regulation of The Press which was announced a few days ago by British Prime Minister, David Cameron. Resulting from the Lord Levison Report, it makes very interesting reading. Among other things, it proposes a new independent Press Regulator, who would be legally empowered to evaluate whether the press is doing no harm to anyone and to fine them up to 1m where they are. Here, our press regulatory bodies seem blissfully reticent or impotent. I note were contemplating what changes to make to our Constitution. Maybe we need to insert something that automatically updates our laws to keep them in step with Englands. In the meantime, the best I can say to Anand and Jack is, Hold on! Dont give up!

Michigan made Havoc look helpless.

Now Trey Burke, Tim Hardaway Jr. and the rest of the cool-headed Wolverines are part of the school's longest NCAA tournament run in nearly two decades.

Mitch McGary had 21 points and 14 rebounds, and fourth-seeded Michigan breezed through Virginia Commonwealth's vaunted pressure with a clinical performance Saturday, beating the fifth-seeded Rams 78-53 to advance to the regional semifinals for the first time since 1994. VCU couldn't create many easy baskets with its press, even though the Wolverines didn't have much time to prepare for it.

"This is a very high-IQ team that can pick up things very quickly," Michigan coach John Beilein said. "Everybody that played in the game, even the guys that did not play, just responded beautifully in the way we want Michigan to respond in these situations."

McGary, a 6-foot-10 freshman, set season highs in scoring and rebounding. VCU had no answer for him around the basket, and that pressure defense _ the Rams call it "Havoc" _ wasn't much of a factor.

VCU was relentless in a 46-point rout of Akron on Thursday night, but the Rams met their match against Michigan's backcourt. Burke and Hardaway rarely looked rattled, and Michigan (28-7) committed only 12 turnovers.

The 71-point swing by VCU _ from a 46-point win to a 25-point loss _ was the largest in NCAA tournament history, according to STATS. In 1968, Houston beat Texas Christian 103-68 to reach the Final Four, then lost to UCLA 101-69 for a 67-point swing.

VCU (27-9) went 0-8 this season when forcing under 15 turnovers.

"Certainly in retrospect it wasn't a very good matchup," Rams coach Shaka Smart said. "The credit for that goes to Michigan. I don't think that we, for whatever reason, had great bounce today and energy. Our guys tried. They always do, but I think what Michigan was able to do to us early on and us missing some easy shots around the basket and maybe some outside looks we'd normally make, that may have contributed to our spirit not being quite where it needed to be."

McGary made his first seven shots from the field. Burke scored 18 points, and Hardaway and Glenn Robinson III added 14 each.

COEUR d'ALENE - Conquering potential pitfalls like femininity and terrapin, the winning word in the 12th and final round of the North Idaho Regional Spelling Bee seemed perfectly fitting.

And once Tricia McCullough nailed it, there was a pop, and the Canfield Middle School eighth grader was showered in colorful confetti.

"It was exciting," McCullough said, after the streamers rained down on her for being the last speller standing. "I was hoping to win."

A terrapin is a North American turtle, but the winning word was precocious - a word McCullough was fairly certain she knew right when the panel challenged her with it.

"I thought so," she said, smiling, on whether she knew she could spell it without needing to reflect too much.

A field of 44 spellers was whittled away during the three-hour contest - the 10th annual competition hosted by NIC and The Press that pits district champion spellers from fourth- through eighth-grade against one another.

Now, McCullough will head off to Washington D.C. to take part in the national spelling bee in May, one of the rewards of winning.

"I'm going to go to Washington," she said, as though it were Disneyland. "I don't have to pay for it."

Her family said it was nerve-wracking watching her compete through the 12 rounds. Listening to each word as their daughter spelled it was like sitting on pins and needles, her mother and father, Gwyn and David McCullough, said.

"I thought she got one wrong," David said of one word somewhere in the middle rounds.
