Oakland Athletics news, rumors and injuries
Athletics | Jesse Hahn solid in spot start
Sun, 24 Jul 2016 20:03:11 -0700
Oakland Athletics SP Jesse Hahn allowed one run on four hits while walking one and striking out five over 7 2/3 innings in a win over the Tampa Bay Rays Sunday, July 24.
Fantasy Tip: Hahn had one of his best outings of an otherwise lackluster year, and if he happens to land a permanent spot in the rotation, he could be worth a flier in AL-only leagues.

Athletics | Coco Crisp scratched from lineup
Sun, 24 Jul 2016 11:23:30 -0700
Oakland Athletics OF Coco Crisp (neck) was scratched from the starting lineup Sunday, July 24, because of neck soreness. OF Jake Smolinski will start in center field. 3B Danny Valencia will start in right field, while 1B Yonder Alonso will start at first base and is batting eighth against Tampa Bay Rays SP Blake Snell.
Fantasy Tip: Alonso is hitting only .220 with one home run and six RBI against left-handed pitchers this season and probably should be avoided in most leagues.

Athletics | Bruce Maxwell catching Sunday
Sun, 24 Jul 2016 09:53:38 -0700
Oakland Athletics C Bruce Maxwell will bat ninth against Tampa Bay Rays SP Blake Snell Sunday, July 24. C Matt McBride is receiving the day off.
Fantasy Tip: With Stephen Vogt on the family emergency medical leave list, Maxwell is serving as the backup to McBride. He hit .321 with 10 home runs and 41 RBI in 60 games for Class AAA Nashville this season and has just one prior MLB at-bat entering play Sunday. He is not a recommended fantasy option Sunday due to his lack of a track record at the big-league level.

Athletics | Rich Hill set for bullpen
Sun, 24 Jul 2016 06:28:25 -0700
Oakland Athletics SP Rich Hill (finger) will throw a bullpen session Sunday, July 24.
Fantasy Tip: Hill is a must-stash hurler given his 2.25 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 10.7 K/9. He's a ripe trade candidate, and a relocation to a better ball team should provide a fantasy boost for Hill.

Athletics | Kendall Graveman spins complete game
Sun, 24 Jul 2016 06:08:07 -0700
Oakland Athletics SP Kendall Graveman allowed three runs on nine hits and a walk while striking out four batters to notch a complete-game win over the Tampa Bay Rays Saturday, July 23.
Fantasy Tip: Graveman's lack of strikeouts limit his fantasy value to cavernous mixed and AL-only formats. For the season he has seven wins, a 4.15 ERA and a 1.38 WHIP with 70 punchouts over 110 2/3 innings. With 40 career starts, it's unlikely Graveman ever improves into much of a fantasy asset.

Athletics | Josh Reddick scratched
Sat, 23 Jul 2016 16:12:40 -0700
Oakland Athletics OF Josh Reddick (back) was scratched Saturday, July 23, with back soreness. OF Coco Crisp has entered the lineup.
Fantasy Tip: Crisp is actually 4-for-8 (.500) lifetime off of lefty Drew Smyly, and he's a low-end option in DFS.

Athletics | Jed Lowrie leading off
Sat, 23 Jul 2016 15:17:38 -0700
Oakland Athletics 2B Jed Lowrie is leading off Saturday, July 23, with OF Coco Crisp out against a left-hander.
Fantasy Tip: Lowrie is hitting just .215 this month, but Drew Smyly has had a rough season. Lowrie has upside in DFS.

Athletics | Stephen Vogt placed on family leave list
Sat, 23 Jul 2016 13:17:08 -0700
Oakland Athletics C/1B Stephen Vogt (personal) was placed on the family emergency medical leave list on Saturday, July 23. Oakland also transferred RP Fernando Rodriguez (lat) to the 60-day disabled list to clear room on the 40-man roster for C Bruce Maxwell, who was recalled from Class AAA Nashville in a corresponding move.
Fantasy Tip: Vogt will have to miss at least three days and no more than seven, meaning Maxwell and Matt McBride will likely share catching duties in the interim. Maxwell's stay figures to be brief since he has a left-handed bat just like Vogt, although the up-and-coming 25-year-old is slashing .321/.393/.539 with 10 homers with 41 RBI in 60 games with the Sounds.

Athletics | Jake Smolinski gets three hits
Sat, 23 Jul 2016 00:33:43 -0700
Oakland Athletics OF Jake Smolinski went 3-for-5 against the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday, July 22.
Fantasy Tip: Since the All-Star break, Smolinski is 8-for-21 (.381) with a home run and four RBI. The team is looking to getting an extended at Smolinski down the stretch, and he's at least worth owning in all AL-only leagues.

Athletics | Sean Manaea blanks Rays
Sat, 23 Jul 2016 00:28:40 -0700
Oakland Athletics SP Sean Manaea allowed no runs on five hits over eight innings against the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday, July 22. He struck out seven and walked none.
Fantasy Tip: This was the third time in four starts that Manaea hasn't allowed a run, and despite incredibly winning just one of those games he has brought his ERA down from 7.62 on May 21 to 4.61 after tonight. There's a lot of upside in the young lefty, and he has done enough to be an interesting addition in deep mixed leagues.

Athletics | Three A's regulars sitting out
Fri, 22 Jul 2016 16:12:37 -0700
Oakland Athletics 3B Danny Valencia, SS Marcus Semien and 1B Billy Butler are not in the starting lineup Friday, July 22. 3B Ryon Healy is at the hot corner and is batting eighth, while SS Arismendy Alcantara is playing shortstop and hitting ninth. OF Jake Smolinski is starting in center field again and is hitting sixth against Tampa Bay Rays SP Jake Odorizzi.
Fantasy Tip: Healy has seen regular at-bats since his call-up and is hitting .250 with a homer and six RBI in 24 at-bats, but he's merely short-term depth in AL leagues and a low-end deep sleeper pick in DFS. Alcantara has a very limited offensive profile and has no upside hitting low in the order. Smolinski is probably the most attractive of the trio in daily lineups as a value pick after homering last night.

Athletics | Sonny Gray rocked again
Fri, 22 Jul 2016 00:14:13 -0700
Oakland Athletics SP Sonny Gray allowed seven runs on nine hits in five innings Thursday, June 21, in a 7-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays.
Fantasy Tip: Gray has eight losses in his last nine decisions, a far cry from the pitcher that dominated for Oakland in the past few years. As hard as it is to say, Gray does not have fantasy value until he can figure out just exactly what happened.

Athletics | Rich Hill plays catch
Thu, 21 Jul 2016 16:30:24 -0700
Oakland Athletics SP Rich Hill (finger) played catch for a second straight day Thursday, July 21, but there's still no timetable for when he'll be back on the mound.
Fantasy Tip: Hill doesn't look to be close to a return, and that can be a problem since the A's might want to trade him before the Aug. 1 deadline. He should remain universally stashed with his stellar 2.25 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 10.7 K/9, however. Stay tuned for more updates on his timeline for a return.

Athletics | Jesse Hahn to start Sunday
Thu, 21 Jul 2016 16:05:49 -0700
Oakland Athletics SP Jesse Hahn will make the start against the Tampa Bay Rays Sunday, July 24.
Fantasy Tip: It's just another spot start for Hahn, who has a 6.49 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and ugly 4.2 K/9 in seven starts for the A's in 2016. He could join the rotation permanently if Rich Hill is traded, but Hahn shouldn't be on anyone's radar outside of AL-only leagues as a shaky matchup play.

Athletics | Coco Crisp, Yonder Alonso sitting
Thu, 21 Jul 2016 14:34:44 -0700
Oakland Athletics OF Coco Crisp and 1B Yonder Alonso are not in the starting lineup against Tampa Bay Rays left-handed SP Matt Moore Thursday, July 21. OF Jake Smolinski is starting in center field and is batting eighth, while 3B Ryon Healy draws in at third base and is hitting ninth. 3B Danny Valencia moves across the diamond to first base and SS Marcus Semien is batting leadoff.
Fantasy Tip: With a lefty on the bump, Crisp and Alonso are rested. Smolinski doesn't move the DFS needle much hitting that low in the order. He's a desperation stab. Healy has looked good so far but is untested and also has limited upside hitting ninth tonight. Both Valencia and Semien have good power and are nice value selections for daily gamers against the lefty.

Confidence is a feeling that makes you think that you are capable of doing something with ease and calmness. It makes you optimistic and pleased with yourself. It can also be a plus for you to enjoy doing things and enjoying life. But confidence is not the feeling where you think you are superior to others. That is not real self confidence.

Break out the charcoal and tongs and heat up that grill. Chef Craig Koketsu of Park Avenue Summer restaurant shares his refreshing recipe that's perfect for a summer BBQ. On the menu: grilled skirt steak with honeydew, avocado and watercress.
- 2 pounds skirt steak
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 inches ginger, peeled
- 2 stalks lemongrass, smashed and roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons coarsely ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup grapeseed oil
- 1 avocado, pitted, peeled and cut into spears
- 1/4 honeydew melon, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 bunch watercress, washed and picked from the thick stems
- 1/2 red onion, julienned
- 1/4 cup Thai basil leaves (regular basil will also work)
- Salt
Spicy lime dressing
- 1 cup fresh lime juice
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon sambal
- 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
Baking Directions:
In a blender, blend garlic, ginger, lemongrass, black pepper, and grapeseed oil until smooth. Pour over flank steak and let marinate for at least one hour in the refrigerator. For the spicy lime dressing, blend all ingredients in the blender at high speed. Keep dressing cold in the refrigerator. Remove skirt steak from refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Before grilling steak, remove excess marinade by blotting with paper towels. Season the steak generously with salt and additional freshly ground black pepper. Grill skirt steak over high heat, about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Remove steak from grill and let rest at least 5 minutes. Meanwhile, compose salad of honeydew, watercress, avocado, red onion and basil on serving plates. Dress generously with spicy lime dressing. Slice steak thinly against the grain and plate with salad. Serve immediately.

Thailand Stocks: Banpu, Ratchaburi Electricity, Thai Oil
Thailand's SET Index rose for a second day, climbing 4.05, or 0.4 percent, to 1,008.77 at the 4:30 p.m. close. The gauge dropped 1 percent this week, the second weekly decline.
Banpu Pcl (BANPU TB), Thailand's biggest coal producer, gained 2.9 percent to 780 baht, the most since Sept. 21. The company sold its 14 percent stake in Ratchaburi Electricity Generating Holding Pcl for 6.68 billion baht ($223 million). The Bangkok-based company sold 202.4 million shares of Ratchaburi at 33 baht each, Banpu said today. That's 10 percent less than Ratchaburi's closing price yesterday of 36.75 baht.
Ratchaburi (RATCH TB), the nation's largest private power producer, dropped 4.1 percent to 35.25 baht, the lowest close since March 10.
Jasmine International Pcl (JAS TB),a provider of telecommunication services, jumped 5.5 percent to 2.1 baht, the highest since April 12. The company yesterday bought back 51.5 million shares for 101.7 million baht, it said in a regulatory filing.
Thai Oil Pcl (TOP TB), the country's biggest oil refiner by market value, climbed 2 percent to 62.75 baht. The return from processing crude into motor fuel, the so-called crack spread, jumped to a four-month high of $11.74 a barrel yesterday on the New York Mercantile Exchange, from $4.44 Nov. 8. That's the biggest margin ever for this time of year, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

Well... I may be wrong, but I guess that's the EDT version...
The problem is not only the bottle design, but the fragrance as well. As per the notes, I can tell that these summer editions smell just like last year's ones...
Givenchy - Very Irrésistible
I prefer Rochas Man, but Pure Coffee has more coffee in its composition.
Valentino - V pour Homme
Dior Homme Intense
Lacroix's Tumulte is similar to Rush and better, IMO.
Joop! Go
Burberry - The Beat
CK One Summer 2005
Rochas Aquaman
Givenchy - Very Irrésistible Fresh Attitude
Kouros Fraicheur
Hm... I'd love to have a coffee/chocolate summer fragrance. For the hottest days and when I wanna have this kind of combination, I try Rochas Man, which is not extremely powerful.
I bought a tester in Ebay, but decided to swap it last month... Quite boring...
Yohji Yamamoto - Yohji
I don't know why it's called Intense, since there's nothing intense about it...
Narciso Rodriguez Musc edp
Valentino - V pour Homme
John Varvatos Cologne
CK One Electric
Joop! Thrill
Clinique - Simply
Paco Rabanne - Black XS
Chanel - Allure Edition Blanche

AIG Recovers From 'Disgraced' to Pay Back Fed's Loan: Timeline
American International Group Inc., once the world's largest insurer, struck a deal to repay the Federal Reserve as the company works toward independence, less than two years after the bailed-out firm's then-leader said the AIG name was "disgraced."
"This company is not going away, it's here to stay," Robert Haines, an analyst at CreditSights Inc., said in an interview yesterday after the insurer announced the agreement. "There's a lot of interest in AIG again, and AIG as a franchise." The following is a timeline of the rescue of New York-based AIG and the company's efforts to repay taxpayers.
Sept. 16, 2008: The U.S. agrees to loan AIG as much as $85 billion in exchange for a stake of almost 80 percent after credit downgrades force the insurer to post collateral to banks that purchased derivatives from the company.
Sept. 18, 2008: AIG's board approves Edward Liddy, who ran Allstate Corp. from 1999 to 2006, as chief executive officer. The two-year credit line is "enough" for AIG, Liddy says.
Oct. 8, 2008: Liddy gets an expanded bailout from the government with authorization for an additional $37.8 billion in liquidity as AIG struggles to meet the demands of clients pulling out of its securities-lending program.
Oct. 22, 2008: Liddy tells PBS that the $122.8 billion offered by the government "may not be enough" to stabilize AIG.
Nov. 10, 2008: Treasury commits to a $40 billion investment, and New York Fed agrees to spend as much as $52.5 billion to buy mortgage-related securities owned or backed by the insurer as losses tied to housing best mount. The credit line is cut to $60 billion and AIG wins a lower interest rate and three extra years to pay back the loan. The $37.8 billion facility is canceled.
March 2, 2009: AIG reports a record $61.7 billion fourth-quarter loss and gets an additional Treasury injection of as much as $29.8 billion, raising the bailout total to about $182.3 billion. "Liquidity is not an issue for us now," Liddy says.
March 3, 2009: Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke says AIG operated like a hedge fund and having to rescue the insurer made him "more angry" than any other episode in the credit crisis.
March 18, 2009: "The AIG name is so thoroughly wounded and disgraced that we're probably going to have to change it," Liddy tells Congress.
Aug 3, 2009: AIG's board elects ex-MetLife Inc. leader Robert Benmosche as CEO.
Dec. 1, 2009: The Fed reduces AIG's credit-line debt by $25 billion in anticipation of receiving proceeds from the eventual sale of two non-U.S. life divisions, American Life Insurance Co. and AIA Group Ltd.
Jan. 27, 2010: Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner says the AIG bailout prevented an "utter collapse" of the U.S. economy. Had AIG failed, "thousands of factories would have closed their doors," Geithner tells a congressional panel. "Millions more would have lost their jobs. People would have rushed to take their savings out of banks."
April 12, 2010: Fairholme Capital Management, led by Bruce Berkowitz, says it acquired about 15 million shares of AIG, gaining the second-largest holding in the company.
July 14, 2010: Chairman Harvey Golub steps down after feuding with Benmosche over the stalled divestiture of AIA. He is replaced by Steve Miller, an AIG director.
Aug. 6, 2010: Benmosche says in a memo to staff that AIG is in talks with U.S. regulators about "a complete government exit."
Aug. 11, 2010: AIG agrees to sell a majority stake in its consumer lender to Fortress Investment Group LLC, getting rid of a unit that accumulated more than $17 billion in debt.
Aug. 25, 2010: AIG's draw on the credit line falls to the lowest since the bailout after the plane-leasing unit raises about $4.4 billion in bond sales to private investors earlier in the month.
Sept. 30, 2010: AIG says it will convert Treasury's preferred stake of about $49.1 billion to common shares for sale to private investors. Geithner says "we are much closer to seeing a clear path out."
Oct. 28, 2010: AIG sells a majority stake in AIA in an initial public offering in Hong Kong, raising $20.5 billion.
Nov. 1, 2010: MetLife purchases Alico for $16.2 billion.
Nov. 30, 2010: AIG sells $2 billion of bonds in its first offering since the bailout in 2008.
Dec. 8, 2010: AIG agrees to repay a Federal Reserve credit line, on which it owes about $21 billion, using proceeds from the Alico and AIA sales.

Fried Green Tomatoes Texas Style
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 10 mins
I couldn't find the same recipe on Zaar site. Enjoy a little taste of Texas! My recipe calls for a healthier way of frying, but if you prefer the deep fry: 6 cups oil and when tomatoes float to the top, they're done (if they're nicely browned, that's done, too, but they should float) and drain thoroughly.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 -6 medium green tomatoes
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 1 cup flour
- 1 egg
- 4 dashes hot sauce
- 1⁄4 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 3⁄4 cup seasoned dry bread crumb
- 1⁄4 cup cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 tablespoons margarine
- Slice Tomato into 1/2 inch thick slices.
- Sprinkle evenly with Salt.
- Combine Brown Sugar and Flour and place on a shallow plate.
- Dip or rub gently both sides of each Tomato Slice into the flour mixture.
- Combine Egg, Hot Sauce, Milk, and Lemon Juice
- Dip each tomato slice into Egg mixture.
- Then dip each tomato slice into Bread Crumb mixture.
- In large skillet melt margarine with oil on medium-high.
- Place tomato slices into skillet but NOT touching.
- Brown on each side.
- Each slice should remain firm and hold their shape.
- Repeat the cooking oils if needed for remaining tomato slices.
- Serve warm with meal or use fingers and eat them as a snack.

"Once the teams set up, they waited until DiMaggio and Hannah separated, and moved in," the Valley and Ada county sheriffs' offices said.
Authorities ushered Hannah to an area where a helicopter could whisk her away.
At some point, a "confrontation" ensued between authorities and DiMaggio, San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore said. The confrontation ended when an FBI tactical agent shot and killed the murder and kidnapping suspect.
Not sure if he was armed, and yes he got what he had coming as far as I am concerned, short of allowing the father to have some alone time with him in a room with a baseball bat.

SANTA ROSA, Calif. (AP) -- A Northern California water district will require residents, businesses and farmers to cut their dependence on Lake Mendocino water by half beginning next month.
The Santa Rosa Press Democrat reports (http://bit.ly/1mvpMXl) the board of directors of the Russian River Flood Control and Water Conservation Improvement District voted unanimously Monday night to adopt the mandatory cutbacks.
The newspaper says drought-plagued Lake Mendocino is below 42 percent of capacity. The district sells the lake's water to seven municipal water districts and about 40 farmers.
To the south, the Santa Clara Valley Water District's board of directors is expected to consider Tuesday whether to ask the public for a 20 percent reduction in water use _ double what the agency first requested last month, according to the San Jose Mercury News.

Potential buyers lined up Thursday to bid on a high-profile piece of property that was once home to a dubious College Station landmark.
It has been almost four years since the Adult Video Store on Texas Avenue closed its doors. It was surrendered to the government after the owner was indicted on a variety of federal charges.
But the property's history hasn't diminished the attractiveness of its location: a stone's throw from the busiest intersection in Bryan-College Station.
Thursday's government auction included the 2,050 sq.ft. building and the three lots it occupies.

Dr Laura Elizabeth Mann
Laura Mann's research focuses on the political economy of markets and value chains in Africa. She received her Masters and PhD from the Centre of African Studies at the University of Edinburgh and her BSc in Environmental Policy and Economics from the London School of Economics. Her PhD examined the impact of tertiary education expansion and economic liberalization on trust relations and the flow of information between managers, job-seekers and civil servants in the Sudanese labour market.
Her current research examines the effects of broadband internet on the tea, tourism and outsourcing value chains of Kenya and Rwanda. In this project, she is particularly interested in how internet connectivity might be re-wiring the back offices and altering the labour practices of East African companies and governments. She is also developing a project examining how new technologies and datasets are changing the way economists and other social scientists understand informal economies in Egypt and Uganda.

Louisiana leaves mark on big game
Published: Wednesday, February 17, 2010 at 11:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, February 17, 2010 at 11:21 a.m.
BATON ROUGE — NFL greatness often is measured by Super Bowl performances.
There have been numerous players from Louisiana colleges who have participated in the Super Bowl, but only a few have performed at the highest level while playing on the sport's most prestigious stage.
Forty-three years ago, one-time LSU fullback Jim Taylor and Tulane wide receiver Max McGee created the mold for Super Bowl greatness during Super Bowl I on Jan. 15, 1967, leading the Green Bay Packers to victory against the Kansas City Chiefs, 35-10.
McGee scored the first touchdown in Super Bowl history on a 37-yard pass reception from Green Bay quarterback Bart Starr. McGee finished the game with seven catches for 138 yards and two touchdowns.
Taylor added a touchdown of his own on a 14-yard run in the second quarter. He finished the game with 56 rushing yards on 17 carries with one touchdown.
McGee was also part of the Packers when the team defeated the Oakland Raiders in Super Bowl II, 33-14. McGee caught one pass for 35 yards.
LSU's only Heisman trophy winner, Billy Cannon, was on the losing end of Super Bowl II, in spite of the Raider tight end caught two passes for 25 yards.
Quite possibly the greatest Louisiana quarterback of all time, Terry Bradshaw, made his Super Bowl debut in at Tulane Stadium on Jan. 12, 1975. The former Louisiana Tech quarterback led the Pittsburgh Steelers to its first championship in Super Bowl IX.
Bradshaw completed 9-of-14 passes for 96 yards and a touchdown. He also ran the ball five times and gained 33 yards as the Steelers beat the Minnesota Vikings, 16-6.
But Bradshaw didn't stop there. He guided the Steelers to three more Super Bowl victories — Super Bowl X in 1976, XIII in 1979 and XIV in 1981. He also claimed two Super Bowl MVPs (Super Bowl XIII and XIV).
Bradshaw's best performance came during Super Bowl XIII, when he completed 17-of-30 passes for 318 yards, four touchdowns and one interception. In his four Super Bowl appearances, Bradshaw completed 49-of-84 passes for 932 total yards, nine touchdowns and four interceptions. Bradshaw's 11.01 yards per pass average during his four Super Bowl performances still remains a Super Bowl record. He also carried the ball 14 times for 53 yards in his Super Bowl career.
There were four other quarterbacks from Louisiana colleges who started in a Super Bowl — LSU's David Woodley played for the Miami Dolphins in Super Bowl XVII, Grambling State's Doug Williams played for the Washington Redskins in Super Bowl XXII, Louisiana-Monroe's Stan Humphries played for the San Diego Chargers in Super Bowl XXIX and Louisiana-Lafayette's Jake Delhomme played for the Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl XXXVIII.
Williams, however, is the only one of the four to be on the winning team. His Washington Redskins defeated the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl XXII, 42-10. The Zachary native became the second Super Bowl MVP from a Louisiana college after he threw for 340 yards, four touchdowns and one interception.
LSU running back Joseph Addai has been the most productive Louisiana running back during the Super Bowl.
Addai went to two Super Bowls while playing with the Indianapolis Colts (Super Bowl XLI and Super Bowl XLIV) and carried the ball 32 times for 154 yards and one touchdown. The former Tiger also recorded 124 receiving yards on 17 receptions.
Southern wide receiver Harold Carmichael had the most reception yards — 82 — in a single Super Bowl by a player who had gone to a Louisiana college. Carmichael's Philadelphia Eagles lost to the Raiders, 27-10, in Super Bowl XV.
Four kickers with Louisiana collegiate backgrounds saw action in the Super Bowls past
Louisiana Tech kicker Chris Boniol kicked the longest field goal in the Super Bowl of the four — a 42-yard post splitter for the Dallas Cowboys during Super Bowl XXX. Boniol also added a 35-yard field goal and three extra points in that game.
Tulane kicker Eddie Murray made three field goals (41 yards, 24 yards and 20 yards) and three extra points for the Cowboys during Super Bowl XXVIII. And Louisiana-Lafayette kicker Rafael Septien made a 27-yard field goal and four extra points for the Cowboys during Super Bowl XIII.
Most recently, former Louisiana Tech kicker, Matt Stover became the oldest player to play in a Super Bowl. The 42-year-old booted a 38-yard field goal and two extra points for the Colts.
Louisiana colleges have also graduated defensive players who have made major contributions in the bowl game.
Louisiana-Lafayette defensive back Charles Tillman had 11 total tackles and a forced fumble while playing for the Chicago Bears during Super Bowl XLI. And Grambling State defensive back Willie Brown helped clinch a Super Bowl XI victory for the Raiders when he ran back an interception 75 yards for a touchdown.

Judge Leery of Health Mandate
PENSACOLA, Fla.—A federal judge in a 20-state lawsuit against the Obama administration's health overhaul signaled Thursday he is sympathetic to the plaintiffs' argument that requiring Americans to carry health insurance violates the Constitution.
But Judge Roger Vinson seemed skeptical of the second plank of the states' suit: that the law forces states into a costly expansion of their Medicaid insurance programs for the poor.
The hearing in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida came three days after a Virginia federal judge in a similar case struck down the law's requirement that most Americans carry insurance or pay a fee. Judge Vinson gave little indication that ruling would play into his decision.
The plaintiffs consist of governors and attorneys general led by Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum, all but one of them Republicans. They argue that the "individual mandate" requiring Americans to carry insurance is beyond the federal government's power under the Constitution's commerce clause. Failure to buy insurance is "inactivity," they argue, not "activity" that Congress can regulate.
Journal Community
Judge Vinson, who was appointed by President Ronald Reagan, signaled he saw the requirement as unprecedented and a potential imposition on Americans' individual liberties. The case is one of some two dozen federal lawsuits that are ultimately expected to be decided by the Supreme Court.
"It would be a giant leap for the Supreme Court to say that a decision to buy or not to buy is tantamount to activity," Judge Vinson told the court.
But the judge appeared much less persuaded by the states' argument against expanding Medicaid. The law is expected to add 16 million Americans to the joint federal-state program beginning in 2014.
The plaintiffs say expansion is too costly and they couldn't opt out of it because it would be unfair to the poor. The administration counters that states are free to drop out of Medicaid if they wish. Judge Vinson seemed to agree, saying: "It's possible for any state to withdraw from the Medicaid program."
So far, the Virginia ruling on Monday is the only one that has struck down part of the law, while two federal district judges who were Democratic appointees have ruled in the Obama administration's favor. The Virginia judge who found part of the law unconstitutional—Henry E. Hudson, a George W. Bush appointee in the Eastern District of Virginia—didn't grant an injunction against it, meaning it remains in place during appeals.
Inside the Pensacola courtroom Thursday, plaintiffs' attorney David Rivkin argued that the administration was setting up a scenario in which it could require any citizen to buy any product. That seemed to strike a chord with Judge Vinson.
"If they decide that everyone needs to eat broccoli," then the commerce clause could allow Congress to require everyone to buy a certain quantity of broccoli, the judge said.
Ian Gershengorn, a Justice Department lawyer representing the administration, said the health insurance market is unlike any other, since all Americans at some point get medical care. Requiring them to carry insurance is just a way of regulating how they pay for it, and preventing all those with insurance coverage from subsidizing the cost of others' uncompensated care, he said.
"It is not shoes, it is not cars, it is not broccoli," he said
Judge Vinson took issue with the suggestion that the uninsured don't pay for their care. He said he was uninsured in law school when his son was born, and joked that the delivery bill came to about $100 per pound. "I paid it," he told the court.
One of the biggest questions, should Judge Vinson rule that the individual mandate violates the Constitution, is whether he would decide it could be "severed" from the rest of the law, as did Virginia judge Hudson.
Judge Vinson likened the law to a clock when taking one wheel away would prevent the whole from functioning. But he also acknowledged that peeling back certain pieces of the law would be tricky. Already in effect, he said, is a provision of that law that gives nursing mothers lactation areas inside the workplace. "How can you possibly undo some of these things?" he asked.
The Medicaid issue is gaining relevance because a handful of cash-strapped states recently have discussed the once-unthinkable move of opting out of the program.
Judge Vinson pointed out that two states in the lawsuit have publicly confirmed such discussions, undermining the plaintiffs' argument that they can't simply leave Medicaid if they don't like the expanded program. He didn't specify the states, but officials in both Texas and Nevada, which are part of the suit, have had such discussions.
Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott told reporters after the hearing he couldn't say whether it was feasible for Texas to pull out of Medicaid, an idea floated by the state's Republican governor, Rick Perry. "We're damned if we do, we're damned if we don't," he said of remaining in the program

Al Horford or Paul Milsap
J.O. was good in his prime.... we were just 2-3 years too late
Thanks for the List!!
The Raptors traded away Rudy Gay this season (obviously) who was making ~17M /year
It got me thinking, who are some of the highest paid Raptors ever?

100% Kyle Lowry
I love his bulldog attitude and the hustle.
Sacrificing his body with the most charges taken in the league.
Pure Gold
I can see the NY Knicks throwing in maybe shumpert and Hardaway Jr. and they're 2026 draft pick (among other things to make it work) in order to keep Melo happy.
...but maybe I just want to see...
DeRozan #9 This week, and Lowry was on the list last week!
They should both be All-Stars!
We never actually see the ping pong balls....
We need guys like Rudy Gay and Chris Bosh, who's names aren't Rudy Gay and Chris Bosh...
Win vs. Orlando first...
Sac trade was clearly better for the Raptors franchise. People are interested in this team on a nightly basis.
This off-season, the Raptors need to resign Lowry and Patterson, and let Salmons go if...
The Raptors next 4 games are:
Jan 24th @ 76ers
Jan 25th vs. Clippers
Jan 27th @ Nets
Jan 29th vs. Magic
Then they go on a west coast road trip for 5 games (8 days).
I think we need at least...

New owners of MLSE (Bell and Rogers) know they make more money with winning franchises.
The future is bright
I love the idea of Rondo running PnR for days on this team.
Having a legit 6'9'' 235lb SF and being able to slot Ross at the SG spot will also be a plus.
But financially this trade handicaps our...
Not good enough to overcome the loss of rotation players such as Hansbrough.
Anyone know when he is due back?
With so much talent at the top of the draft, players who would usually be late lottery picks will now be available later in round 1. There will still be good value in picks 15 through 22. Drafting...

Ah, yes, volleyball night.
I played a couple of games at the pro club tonight. It wasn't as good as usual because there seemed to be a couple of weak players there. There is actually a separate court for folks who don't play well, but sometimes people don't understand the format I guess... Volleyball is one of those sports where one bad player can really ruin a game. It's not like basketball where you can choose who to pass it to or just take it to the hoop yourself. A bad player in a volleyball game will be who the opposing team always serves to... If the setter doesn't get a good pass then you won't get any good hits etc.. In a normal rally 3 people touch the ball, if one of them is someone who can't play then it doesn't matter how good the other two are. Also, court coverage gets really messed up if someone on the court doesn't know how to play. So that's why there's two courts. Anyhow, enough ranting :)
asked me to give him a ride to Chaplins to pick up his car. He had some problem with it rattling. Turns out they found a massive set of pliers in his oil pan left there from when he got his oil changed at Jiffy Lube... Even though he gets to keep the pliers he still doesn't want to ever go back there... The pliers were pretty big too, about the size of a wrench. Very heavy duty.
I think the visit ended up costing about $180... Ah well.

Hi, first of all I want to thank you for a great plugin - simply love it! :) But after the last update the plugin doesn't work properly on my page. The CSS makes both the video and thumbnails just floating around, and does not seem to register anything I tell it to do in the shortcode. It seems like the video player settles in to a class called "pre" (?) - which is already defined in my theme css. Although I have deleted the "width: 460" property for this class in my theme css, the plugin still does not add up properly. The sidebar widget works fine though. I have also tried to disable a number of other plugins without that helping the css of the youtube channel gallery. Does anyone know whats wrong with my code?

My "Sidebar 1" is running just fine, the widgets I placed under "sidebar 1" show up on the homepage as well as other pages and posts and categories. But my "sidebar 2" is only working on my homepage. If I place the calender widget under sidebar 2, it only works on the homepage and not on single posts, other pages or categories.
How Can I fix that?

Optical networking specialist Finisar (Nasdaq: FNSR ) reported a strong first quarter last night, sending the stock on a rocket-boosted overnight ride. Don't worry about getting priced out of an investment opportunity, though -- this hike merely erased the scuff marks left by a rough-and-tumble August. Finisar is still pretty cheap for an optical networking stock.
The company is following much the same trends as larger rival JDS Uniphase (Nasdaq: JDSU ) to strong sales: Raging growth in mobile data networking means new investments in the backhaul networks that connect cell towers to the wider Internet, which means fresh orders for Finisar's largest customers. Cisco Systems (Nasdaq: CSCO ) is No. 1 in the order book year after year, but Finisar also supplies optical components to everybody from Juniper Networks (NYSE: JNPR ) to Brocade Communications Systems (Nasdaq: BRCD ) . OK, so Finisar doesn't do metal-cutting fiber-optic lasers, like JDS does. The networking analogy is still obvious.
First-quarter sales grew 10.3% sequentially and 61.5% year-over-year to land at $208 million. That growth outpaces even JDS, and that comparison is all the more impressive because Finisar sold a small unit to JDS during the year in question. GAAP earnings increased from a $0.18 loss per share last year to $0.24 per share of profits this time. Sales, margins, and earnings all posted company records.
And the good times will keep rolling. Finisar's order backlog is another record-setting measure, and the book-to-bill ratio is "comfortably" over the crucial 1.0 mark. As long as people keep buying data-hungry smartphones and watching bandwidth-hogging high-def videos in digital formats, Finisar and its optical brethren will keep on rocking. I don't see an end to either of those trends in the foreseeable future.
Finisar is merely a three-star CAPS stock today, but less than nine months removed from a top-of-the-line five-star rating. Scoot over to CAPS to voice your opinion on Finisar -- or any other stock -- in just a couple of clicks.

Mario Monti not the first banker brought in to save Italy
Pensioners likely to bear the brunt as Italians buckle down to austerity regime
WHEN Silvio Berlusconi first became prime minister in 1994 he succeeded Carlo Azeglio Ciampi, a highly respected former chairman of the Bank of Italy, who was prime minister for a year to sort out Italy's fiscal woes that time round. Some 17 years later Berlusconi has been forced out to make way for another banker, Mario Monti, who has a bigger set of problems on his hands than Signor Ciampi could ever have imagined.
There's another coincidence, too. Ciampi is credited with doing most of the spadework to get Italy into the euro when he was finance and budget minister in the mid-1990s.
So, a government of technocrats led by a banker isn't entirely new for Italy. What is new is the legacy of Signor Berlusconi, whose lifestyle seemed to promise non-stop party time for Italy.
The problem facing the Monti government is daunting – a whopping €1.9 trillion debt, around 150 per cent of Italian GDP. If this cannot be gripped in the coming week, the euro project could spiral to earth like an autumn leaf.
This means that Italy's generous pension and welfare provisions will have to be cut drastically, as will the tangle of national and regional subsidies and grants on which so much Italian graft and patronage rests. This is particularly poignant in the European nation with the fastest ageing population.
Grey power in networks of pensioners' groups is well organised in Italy. Berlusconi's erstwhile coalition partners in the Northern League have already said they will oppose any moves to cut back the pensions of their members. Prime Minister Monti will have to win over the trade union federations, as well as the parliamentary opposition, if he is to have any chance with welfare austerity.
Moreover Silvio Berlusconi's own Polo della Liberta, still the largest party bloc in parliament, has started laying down conditions for supporting any future austerity programme – which they so patently failed to deliver when they were in charge. So, Berlusconi looks like being out of office but still in power - even if that power is only one of veto.
It's worth reflecting on quite why the former cruise ship crooner lasted so long as Italy's prime minister. Silvio Berlusconi was the epitome of the myth of 'il bel paese' – Italy the beautiful country.
In 1945 Italy was broken, broke, fractured by war and still a predominantly agrarian economy – apart from the industrial pocket of the north west. Then came the boom years of the Fifties and Sixties. Silvio Berlusconi came to epitomise the Italian who could make money in Italy instead of having to emigrate to do so.
Nobody cared much about his methods, fair or foul. It can be no coincidence that he turned to politics after his mentor and protector Bettino Craxi crashed and burned in the huge 'clean hands' bribery scandal of 1992.
Berlusconi's political genius, if such it can be called, was to reign by, with and through television, most of which he owned in the private sector, and bludgeoned and bullied in the public sector.
But in the past ten years it has slowly dawned that despite the cosmetic surgery and makeovers of the image and the man himself, the beautiful country and its champion are not so beautiful after all.
Italy used to be seen as part of the German economy and domestic market. Germany could be relied on to come to the rescue in previous fiscal crises. Not any more. While Germany has put in a world-class performance in exports and productivity in the past ten years, growth in Italy has been negligible and productivity poor. Most alarming is the surge in Italian youth unemployment – among the worst in the advanced industrial nations.
Parts of the Italian economy are resilient, with a vigorous industrial base in light engineering and design – something Britain lacks by comparison. But the real message of Silvio Berlusconi's water-slide exit from government is that his portrayal of 'il bel paese' was an illusion, a game of smoke and mirrors. Today that game is well and truly up.
Berlusconi's rule was based on the promise of riches from the most consummate game show host in political history. Mario Monti must now play the fair and friendly bank manager persuading his extravagant Italian clientele to live within their means – which means austerity for most and even poverty for quite a few beleaguered pensioners.
