Running back Bo Oliver and wideouts Alex Neutz and Fred Lee are all probable for Saturday's game against Toledo at UB Stadium.
Oliver and Neutz both wore yellow (no contact) vests Wednesday afternoon but looked fine. Oliver was going pretty close to full speed and cutting hard without any problems.
Oliver (knee) and Lee (wrist) have been out since suffering injuries in the Kent State game on Sept. 19. Neutz (chest) missed last week's game against Pitt after absorbing a hammering hit the previous week against Northern Illinois.
Lee had been expected to remain sidelined another 2-3 weeks but received word Tuesday afternoon that he's cleared to return.
Safety Witney Sherry did not practice and is doubtful. Derek Brim (Canisius) had a big game against Pitt filling in for Sherry.

Best Pancake Nominee?
I'm not normally a pancake person -- I usually go with hashbrowns on the side, extra crispy. But I really like the ones at S & W Diner -- big, tasty, a nice texture, not too heavy but with substance. Two large ones come as a side alternative with their combo breakfasts -- I try to go with a friend close enough so one of us orders the pancakes and the other the hashbrowns and toast and we can share. At S & W a main (I like the homemade corned beef hash, crispy), two eggs any style, and a choice of side is as much or more than I can eat and well under $10.
Julienne in Pasadena.
Coherent reason? They're pumpkin and topped with crystalized ginger butter. That's reason enough for me, coherent or otherwise.
First stop is Original Pancake House. It will take a month of Sundays for you to try half of the Pancakes on the menu .This is not IHOP where every pancake is the same but with different toppings. These are really all different.. Try the thin chewy flap jacks and the fluffy buttermilks first. Then move on to the others. Finally, go to Pie N Burger in Pasadena for the best thin style and fluffy style.
re: JeetJet
re: David Kahn
Just a note on the OPH that if you get the dutch baby get a side of bacon (or other pancakes!) as well. That baby is not very filling but it is tasty. Also the bacon waffle, while delicious in imagination is not so delicious upon presentation. I didn't read the description clearly and thought it would arrive having been made with bacon in the batter. In actuality it's just a waffle with broken up bacon bits strewn on top. I could of done that myself.
Montebello Country Club coffee shop for chewy thin pancakes like they used to serve at Hamburger Hamlets for Sunday brunch. I'm not a fan of thick fluffy kind.
re: monku
Hey monku, is this coffee shop up that hill on Via San Clemente off Garfield? I have gone to several meetings at that large hall up there. All I ever ate up there was some mass produced rubber chicken served to 200 people during the meeting. I never noticed a coffee shop. Is this place open in the morning hours during the week? Do they offer these thin chewy pancakes everyday? My Thanks
re: JeetJet
The coffee shop is on the ground floor next to the golf shop below the banquet rooms. They remodeled the coffee shop and bar last year. You can park at the golf course lot or around the back at the Hilton Garden Hotel.
The coffee shop is open everyday 5:30am-4pm. The food at the coffee shop is pretty good. Play golf there once a week and eat lunch there. I'd eat breakfast there too, but I'm a big fan of J&S's machaca burrito for breakfast.
Pancakes are served everyday and you can get them anytime of day. You can get even get one pancake if you want to just try it--that's what my buddy orders for breakfast or Golfer's Special with 2 pancakes, eggs and bacon of sausage for $6.95. One day I said I wanted 4 pancakes (they almost cover the plate) and it was way too much. They also do a great hamburger.....1/3 pound burger (ask for it med-rare) and fries for like $6.95.....I think its the best hamburger around. They also have a great Thai chicken salad for $8.95 which is pretty good too.
re: monku
I finally got a chance to try these cakes. This is a very nice cafe to either sit at the counter or at a booth or table. I saw two nice large flat TVs. These pancakes are larger than regular cakes and more thin with a little chew. The cakes at Pie, n Burger and Original House are larger, thinner and have more of a chewy texture. I would say Montebello Country Club coffee shop cakes are a mix (someplace between) thick fluffy and thin flap-jacks. They are good and when I return again I might look into the breakfast burrito I noticed in the menu.
re: JeetJet
Glad you were able to check it out.
Try the hamburger-I think its one of the best around and ask for it med-rare, think its a half pound burger. Never had the breakfast burrito, but one of my buddy's is always ordering the machaca burrito. They do a great Thai chicken salad, you'd be surprised.
Two nominees...
1. Home Bakery and Cafe in Montrose. Basic buttermilk pancakes but there is no mealy texture at all, a perfect medium brown color, and just a hint of a crusty crunch on the outer layer of the cake. Before being served, butter is melted over the top and the taste is out of this world. It also help that you can get a combo with eggs and bacon for around $5.
2. Peach Cafe in Monrovia. Many go for their blueberry cakes, which are very good, but the buttermilk variety is also outstanding. There secret...which isn't really since they readily tell you...is putting some orange juice in the batter which gives the final product a slightly sour taste that reminds me of a good sourdough bread. Again, the price for cakes alone is in the $5 range and the cakes can be substituted on any of the other breakfast plates in place of the hash browns and toast.
re: heckonwheels
Yeah, those pancakes at the Peach Cafe are a true uptown breakfast and that orange juice is what puts them over the top. The coffee selections are also very good.
The Peach Cafe
re: heckonwheels
I truly enjoy Du-Par's pancakes as I find them fluffy and cooked just right with a cake like texture and soft and slightly chewy texture. The drawn butter is a nice complement and I find this a steal of a place to go when it is late night. I am a pancake purist and I do not like fruit, nuts, or flavored syrup on my pancakes. People may differ here on this board, but I think they are the best in LA for straight forward traditional pancakes.....
THIS IS MY FAVORITE SUBJECT NEXT TO BBQ!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hands down, the tastiest and most consistently good pancakes are at The Original Pancake House. The only LA county location is Redondo Beach. But...if you have ever been to any location, including those in Orange County or San Diego, they are all packed all of the time. My favorites are the 49'er flapjacks which are thin like a crepe and as big as a plate. Others have tried to duplicate (ex: Marstons & Pie n Burger) but they do not achieve the same texture as OPH.
re: orythedog
I disagree about Pie n Burger not achieving the same texture for those thin flapjacks. After going to both places for years and thinking they were closly the same I actually had to try both places back-to-back. So about two months ago I did both places the same day. (I had brakfast at Pie N Burger and then my son called to meet him in OC, so I went and...) and the winner hands-down, IMO, is Pie N Burger. I say that not only because the price was less and because you get one more pancake then OHP, but because of a better chewy texture and flavor. Also, at Pie N Burger those large thin pancakes are cooked just a lttle darker and IMO that looks more homemade. Also, once I knew for sure that I liked the thin cakes at Pie N Burger most, I could not stop eating'em and went back twice a week for several weeks. Then I noticed my pants started getting -- ah , small again -- and I had to stop going about four weeks ago.
re: JeetJet
I've never had anything but lukewarm chili and wonderful hamburgers, hashbrowns, and pie at PIE 'N BURGER, so on JJ's recommendation, I'll have to try their pancakes soon. I'm surprised to hear they even resemble, much less challenge, the OPH 49'er Flap Jacks, those thin, tender, and lightly chewy pancakes from the chow side of Heaven.
I love the pancake at The Griddle Cafe that has a shot of espresso and chocolate chips.
re: sobriquet
re: sobriquet
re: uhockey
#1 Griddle for the audacity and decadence and the variety - vast difference between the textures/flavors of each pancake.
#2 CiCi's for the variety and decadence, not quite on par w/ Griddle and the pancakes are mostly the same aside from the sauces.
#3 Jack n' Jills for GREAT quality hotcakes (fluffy, airy, great) that are much more subtle than the others - yet can be dressed up for decadence.
re: bigredd
Kate Mantilini is owned by the Lewis'........the originators of Hamburger Hamlet. Its the same pancakes they used to serve for Sunday brunch at the Hamlets and same type of pancakes I've had at the Montebello Country Club coffee shop.
I have it from a source that worked at the Hamlets that it comes from a commercial pancake mix that they "thin" down to get that type of pancake.
my pick of the moment is Square One - nice & fluffy, you can taste the fresh dairy flavors, vanilla whipped cream made with real vanilla beans, real maple syrup (although, does any respectable restaurant serve the fake stuff anymore??)

re: foufou
re: sel
re: Joani Macaroni
re: Joani Macaroni
Sorry, just saw your reply. When I talked to Dish's manager prices were still reasonable. Yes maple syrup prices have shot sky high but I think it should be offered as westsidegal mentions for an upcharge. I did go to a lovely place in Oakland that made there own brown sugar and apple cider syrup (tasted delicious) because of the current high prices for pure maple syrup. I love the creativity of that place, haven't seen it in L.A.
re: foufou
I admit I haven't tried most of the restaurants other posters have suggested but I love the Original Pancake House.I went this morning in fact!
Order either the 49'ers (which is what I had today) SO GOOD.
the apple pancake
or the dutch baby
my friend likes the buckwheat or original, which are good, but I like the other three much better!
My favorite pancake used to be Soul Folks in downtown LA but I hear they closed down? (haven't been in years) they were the best I have ever had.
To add to the suggestions already made: I love the pancakes at Pacific Dining Car (breakfast is the only meal I really enjoy there)--the blueberry in particular are huge but fluffy and bursting with wonderful blueberries. Marston's also does very good blueberry pancakes but it is hard not to order the excellent crunchy french toast when I go there. Uncle Bill's in Manhattan Beach offers a nice variety and executes them well but I seldom have the patience to wait in the inevitable line to get in.

re: New Trial
My son just mentioned to me yesterday that he had those pancakes at the Pacific Dining Car this week and thought they were excellent. He also mentioned that breakfast for two was a little over $60. Your mention of blueberry pancakes made me recall another place for blueberry pancakes -- Egg Heaven Cafe. These are also very good. I order a high stack with a side of sausage. The sausage has a nice casing (snap) and a flavor and texture that is way above most.

re: JeetJet
oh, I've been in the mood for yummy pancakes too.. think I will have to check out the Original Pancake House in Redondo Beach. 1756 South Pacific Coast Hwy. Redondo Beach, California 90277 310-543-9875 http://www.originalpancakehouse.com/
Not "the best" pancakes, but delicious and unique: the strawberry chai pancakes at Hugo's in West Hollywood. Complement them with a chai latte!
My favorite pancake EVER was at the Dipsea Cafe in Mill Valley, Marin County. Upside-down with caramelized sliced mango. It tasted extra good coming as my breakfast reward after a 14 mile trail run. I'm afraid to say more lest this post get kicked off the L.A. board. :)
I forgot that I did a comparison of Dupars versus Original Pancake House in 2007. The link is here:
Lemon ricotta pancakes with caramelized blueberry compote at Mike & Anne's in South Pasadena. I've tried lemon ricotta pancakes at a couple of other places in LA and these are the best. Very moist and you can actually see bits of ricotta in the batter. Mike & Anne's other breakfast offerings are also very good.
You have to try Pie and Burger in Pasadena. Nothing too fancy, just fluffy and super fresh.
re: ohdaylay
Fluffy? Yeah, Pie and Burger does have great fluffy pancakes but in your 2007 comparison, which you link above of Dupars versus Original Pancake House, you had the 49er flapjacks at OPH. I agree that the OPH is far superior to D. But have you compaired the thin chewy pancakes at P&B with those OPH 49er flapjacks? If you have not then you must have them -- thin, chewy, more for your money than OPH and better bacon too. Sitting at that counter and having a full stack of P&B thin style pancakes has become something I do when I know I need something real special to start my day.
re: JeetJet
I keep forgetting to get over to PNB for breakfast and will correct that mistake soon.
However, I'm confused. Does PNB have two kinds of pancakes -- (1) fluffy and (2) thin, chewy, non-fluffy, OPH Forty-Niner's style? Their menu (http://www.pienburger.com/menu.htm) lists only "Hot Cakes."
re: sbritchky
Sorry. That is a good point and it should be mentioned when discussing P&B pancakes. Yea, they two types of "Hot Cakes." The menu only mentions "Hot Cakes" so when you order you must make sure the server knows which kind you want -- thick & fluffy or thin and chewy. Most of the time the server will ask which kind you want but sometimes they do not ask and.... Twice I have gone there with aq fried and while sitting at the counter reading the menu the server put a short stack in front of us. I asked what are these... And was told the cook makes extra sometimes and so.... That was how I got to try the thick kind. They are very good but when I order I get the thin kind. Like I say, when I feel a bad day is in my future, or feel I deserve something special just for me, I order a full stack w/ extra butter (although they give you lots of butter without the asking).
The thin and chewy are the same style as the Forty-Niner Flap Jacks at OPH. The thick and fluffy are more like the buttermilk at OPH but larger. Once I told the server that next time they re-print the menu they should list "Fluffy pancakes" and "Thin FlapJacks." I got only a look that said, "Why?" That is one reason why I lke the place, they never change.
Another place I learned about here from our "Chino Wayne" is Frisco's. Very good lagre fluffy style pancakes. I ask for some blueberry topping that they put on their blueberry ice cream and they will even warn it up -- so good. The ambiance of Frisco's is as close to a NJ diner as it gets here in L.A., They have some booths made from cars. No movie star look-a-likes but the carhops on skates, eh, -- how did Vincent say it? -- "It's like a wax museum with a pulse rate." See the slides..
Frisco's servers -- Slide Show
re: JeetJet
OK, so I went to P&B and got the thin pancakes. They were more well done than the ones at OPH but they were dry and tasted faintly of grease form the grill. The 49er flapjacks at OPH have a certain "chew" and "moistness" to them. While I go to P&B from time to time, I think it is impossible to cite any item there as superior to the offerings at OPH. To each his own...
For a different savory type pancake there is a korean type called pa-jun. Sometimes you can get a mixed seafod or even a kimchee pancake. The batter is slightly different but is really delicious.
Also cobras has a socca cake which is a chickpea pancake which you can top with either a cilatro sauce or a goat cheese and honey. I personally like the goat cheese and honey. Yum!
I also love DuPars but since have found a better.
You HAVE TO try Gridles Cafe on Sunset. OMG! They have all kinds of pancakes and each one is the size of a medium size pizza pie!!! I have been twice. I have tried one with butterscotch, coconut, rolled oats.... it basically had everything under the sink in it. It was beyond!! The next time I tried the chocolate chip pancakes. I took a friend (thats her in the pic. lol). There was no way to finish this ONE pancake. Gosh it was good though.

Appearing on page 1 and headlined "Many warming unexpectedly to Clinton", this little attempt at a puff piece by Globe reporter Sasha Issenberg is hysterical because the headline, text, and quotes are saturated with awkwardly faint praise for Hillary from people who are obviously stalwart Democrats and many who are outright supporters. Here is the beginning:
Don Schwartz, who describes himself as "a super-Deaniac progressive type," decided to back Hillary Clinton - whose centrist views, he concedes, do not necessarily match his own - for a simple reason. He wanted, finally, to be with a winner.
Great plan! That's why John Kerry is president instead of Howard Dean.
"I was actually surprised how many people said they were for Hillary," Schwartz said. "Now, they're getting to know her, and they're starting to like her. She is a nice person!"
"I actually like her more than I thought I would," Martha LaFlanne, 49, the vice president of student affairs at New Hampshire Community Technical College in Berlin
Thank you. Next, please.
"Barack is a remarkable speaker, Hillary is a good speaker," said Paul Begala
Hillary will surely punish you for saying that, Begala. No truthing to the media!
"She seems more human," Anna Chen, a 20-year-old Harvard junior from San Diego, said after a debate last week in Hanover. "Her laugh has gotten a lot better. Did you notice that tonight?"
Right! She does seem more human. More than any time in the past 15 years!
"I don't think people will say they don't have mixed feelings," said Billy Shaheen, cochairman of Clinton's campaign in New Hampshire.
Say that again, please, Billy. I need to start my parser.
In trying to decide what they think of Clinton today, voters find themselves wrestling with what they thought of her yesterday, and whether it was they or she who changed in the interim, specialists said.
Thank God for specialists!
…the new impressions voters receive of Clinton are more likely to fit into the old frameworks they have for considering her, according to [Emory professor Westen], including the idea that even her charm may be calculated.
Calculated? In my mental calculus the words "charm" and "Hillary Clinton" make an awkward pairing, almost like "honesty" and "Bill Clinton".
Voters are often left assessing less what they think of Clinton than judging the gap between those feelings and what they believe is expected of them.
Sasha, please check your editor for signs of life. He must have died before giving a pass to that line.
"I don't think I feel I have to like her personally, said Diane McGonagle, 56, who walked from her home in Concord last week to see Obama address a rally in a public park. "I don't see why warmth is an issue."
There you have it folks. These Democrats are just mad about Hillary. Even the Globe says so. And if they are only slightly charmed, or very slightly charmed, or finding her at least more human than before, then maybe warmth just isn't an issue.
As my children say, "LOL".
Then the Globe keeps digging and asks its readers to respond online to the question "Have you warmed to Hillary?"
The first 4 to answer said:
Posted by bceagle90 on 8:05 AM
I've warmed to Hillary like a Red Sox fan warms to Bucky Dent....

I have never seen any one as cold and calculating as Hillary Clinton (or is it Hillary Rodham Clinton). She is just a product of one focus group after another telling her what she shouldn't or shouldn't say. I am not against having a women President, but if she gets the Democratic nomination, you may as well give the Presidency to the Republicans for the next 8 years.

If this woman told me it was raining, I'd have to call the dog in to see if it's wet.
You know she's lying when her lips are moving.
I fear for our great republic if this woman gets elected...

The Onion does great satire because there stuff usually has that brilliant kernal of truth. One of their latest builds on the absurdity of beliefs about urban transit.
Report: 98 Percent Of U.S. Commuters Favor Public Transportation For Others
WASHINGTON, DC–A study released Monday by the American Public Transportation Association reveals that 98 percent of Americans support the use of mass transit by others.
"With traffic congestion, pollution, and oil shortages all getting worse, now is the time to shift to affordable, efficient public transportation," APTA director Howard Collier said. "Fortunately, as this report shows, Americans have finally recognized the need for everyone else to do exactly that."
. . .
And it just gets funnier.
APTA is kicking off a campaign to promote mass transit with the slogan, "Take The Bus... I'll Be Glad You Did."
The campaign is intended to de-emphasize the inconvenience and social stigma associated with using public transportation, focusing instead on the positives. Among these positives: the health benefits of getting fresh air while waiting at the bus stop, the chance to meet interesting people from a diverse array of low-paying service-sector jobs, and the opportunity to learn new languages by reading subway ads written in Spanish.

Coyotes threaten neighborhood animals
Date: March 7, 2013
by: Alex Mahadevan | News Editor
The howls from a nearby lot are most noticeable when emergency vehicles screech by Joe Sipos' home in McIntosh Meadows.
The howls are a wild animal's response to the sirens, and they frighten Sipo's pets — two cats and a Shih Tzu — when they hear the noise from his back porch.
"They know what they're hearing," Sipos said during a Feb. 28 interview with the Sarasota Observer — coyotes.
Sipos' home abuts roughly 30 acres of undeveloped property on McIntosh Road, just south of Fruitville Road.
McIntosh Meadows residents suspect a pack of coyotes has killed three missing neighborhood cats. And, residents rarely see wild rabbits that used to frequent the subdivision, Sipos said.
"At night, when there are sirens, it sounds like something back there is beating the hell out of some dogs," Sipos said. "There have to be at least four or five of them."
The site is overgrown, allowing ample space for wildlife to roam, such as bobcats reported about two years ago.
Coyotes are considered native species in Florida. Researchers have documented the predators in all 67 counties in the state, according to a 2007 Florida Fish and Wildlife Research Institute report. The United States Department of Agriculture's Wildlife Services removes between 75 and 100 coyotes from the state annually.
Coyotes are considered opportunistic omnivores, which means they will eat whatever plants or animals are most abundant where they roam. That includes everything from rats and deer, to watermelon and cantaloupes.
At least 35 homes and the Jewish Federation of Sarasota-Manatee campus on McIntosh Road surround the vacant lot, which means any neighborhood pets that wander into the brush become potential prey for the coyotes.
But, Sarasota County doesn't monitor the local coyote population. And the USDA Wildlife Services focuses removal efforts on areas with dense populations of coyotes.
It is legal to hunt coyotes year-round during the day, because they are classified as fur-bearing. But, hunting at night — when coyotes are active — is illegal.
"I know what these animals look like and I know what they can do," Sipos said.

Found November 08, 2012 on Fox Sports Florida:
PLAYERS: Billy Donovan, Scottie Wilbekin, Casey Prather, Cody Larson, Jason Clark, Henry Sims, Hollis Thompson, Kenny Boynton, Corey Brewer
TEAMS: Florida Gators, Georgetown Hoyas
TEAMS: Florida Gators, Georgetown Hoyas
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) - One of the first things Florida coach Billy Donovan did upon boarding the USS Bataan was ask about touring the gun turret. Forget the wind, the open-air backdrop, the chilly temperatures and potential court condensation. This was bigger than basketball, and Donovan knew it. "To be on this ship, sharing a moment like this, means more than I can ever express," Donovan said. No. 10 Florida and Georgetown were thrilled to be part of the once-in-a-lifetime event - Friday night's season opener on the deck of an amphibious assault ship. Both teams toured the 844-foot Bataan on Thursday, posing for pictures and talking to everyone wearing a uniform and taking part in the Navy-Marine Corps Classic. Donovan even invited three former Navy basketball players assigned to the Bataan to help run shoot-around. Georgetown coach John Thompson III was equally taken back. "For these kids to get the opportunity to come here and meet the sailors and the Marines that are on the Bataan," said Thompson, "most of them, if not all of them, would never get this opportunity. Georgetown is a learning institute; that's part of our job." Donovan handled a much different part of the job Thursday. He suspended starting point guard Scottie Wilbekin indefinitely for an undisclosed reason. Donovan declined to divulge what the 6-foot-2 junior did, but said it wasn't anything criminal or anything that would be considered an NCAA violation. Donovan said "information was brought to me" early Thursday that led to the suspension. "You've got a group of 12 other guys that are looking to see how a coach is going to respond with what's right and what's wrong," Donovan said. "This was the right decision to have him not be a part of this game because he needs to understand there's a level of accountability and responsibility that he has being part of this team. "It's important for our guys to understand there's a commitment you have to make each and every day - on the court, off the court, in school and in every aspect of your life." The Gators, who have won 21 consecutive season openers, also will be without swingman Casey Prather. He sustained his second concussion in nine days this week. Throw in the unexpected departure of forward Cody Larson last month and Florida will be playing with five returning players and four freshmen against Georgetown. "He has enough pieces where he can quickly substitute and make changes," Thompson said. "They're down two quality players, and all that means is two other quality players are going to get minutes." Coaches have plenty of other worries. Temperatures were expected to dip into the 50s and wind could be a factor. Plus, there's a chance condensation would build and cause slippery conditions on the outdoor court. "Whether there's wind or how the lighting is, both teams are going to have to be dealing with that," Donovan said. "I don't think anybody gets an advantage. ... The only thing that could interrupt the game is if you've got guys slipping and sliding like an ice skating rink." Officials tested the court Wednesday night and found no issues. Just to be safe, though, they will have more than a dozen workers drying the court during timeouts. "I'm telling my guys it's not going to affect you at all," Thompson said. "The backdrop's not going to affect you, the weather's not going to affect you. That's how we're approaching it." Kind of a "Hoosiers" speech? "We're going to get (a tape measure)," Thompson added. Georgetown was picked to finish fifth in the Big East preseason coaches' poll after losing seniors Jason Clark and Henry Sims, along with early departing junior Hollis Thompson. They were the team's three leading scorers last season, accounting for 38.4 points per game, 56 percent of the Hoyas' output. While expectations are down a bit for a Georgetown program coming off a 24-9 season, they're very high for Florida following back-to-back appearances in the NCAA tournament regional final. Top scorer Kenny Boynton is back looking to help the Gators improve upon last season's 26-11 mark. Florida and Georgetown haven't played since the NCAA tournament's round of 16 in 2006, a game the Gators won on Corey Brewer's circus shot in the final minute. That victory helped Florida get to the Final Four, where the Gators won the first of back-to-back national championships. Playing on the Bataan could be even more memorable. "This is a game that is bigger in my opinion than any game we've had the opportunity to play," Donovan said.

By Greg Morcroft, MarketWatch
NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — Sterne Agee analysts were moving financial stocks on Tuesday, helping lift E-trade Financial Corp. almost 3% while pressuring Aflac Inc. into the red with their latest sector calls.
German economy contracts
The German economy contracted by a larger-than-expected 0.5% in the fourth quarter of 2012.
The Financial Select Sector SPDR ETF /quotes/zigman/246222/delayed/quotes/nls/xlf XLF -2.05% , which tracks the financial stocks in the S&P 500 /quotes/zigman/3870025/realtime SPX -2.00% , rose 0.2%.
Analysts at Sterne Agee said they downgraded Aflac "as the recent significant weakening of the yen vs. the dollar will negatively impact earnings-per-share revisions as well as capital repatriation from the Japan branch."
"Further, despite the positive influence of the company's new portfolio allocation strategy, we believe downside risk to Japan margins remains somewhat high," the analysts wrote in a report. "We believe the combination of these risks will ultimately present investors with a better buying opportunity."
Regarding E-Trade /quotes/zigman/118511/delayed/quotes/nls/etfc ETFC -3.09% , which the firm initiated with a buy rating, the analysts said that it's continuing to run off its loan portfolio and deleveraging its bank.
"(That) should drive considerable earnings growth in addition to substantial leverage to an improved operating environment," the analysts concluded.
Several of the nation's largest banks are reporting results this week. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. /quotes/zigman/188479/delayed/quotes/nls/gs GS -1.64% reports on Jan. 16. Citigroup /quotes/zigman/5065548/delayed/quotes/nls/c C -2.16% reports on Jan. 17. J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. /quotes/zigman/272085/delayed/quotes/nls/jpm JPM -2.10% reports on Jan. 16, and Bank of America Corp. /quotes/zigman/190927/delayed/quotes/nls/bac BAC -2.12% reports on Jan. 17.
Greg Troccoli, co-founder of www.ChartLabPro.com, a leading provider of quantitative advice solutions for retail and institutional investors, wrote on MarketWatch's Trading Deck Tuesday that, "If you're a swing trader and have owned these names over the last couple of months, we would not risk these gains and reduce exposure. As traders, we never go into earnings with a directional bet, which is just guessing." Read Troccoli's outlook for this week's financial firm results
On the compensation front, Morgan Stanley /quotes/zigman/182639/delayed/quotes/nls/ms MS -3.00% plans to defer 100% of bonuses for its highest paid employees, excluding financial advisers, and will spread these cash-and-stock payments over a three-year period, according to a person familiar with the situation.
The securities firm's deferral policy applies to employees who make over $350,000 annually and whose bonus is at least $50,000, this person said. See full story on Morgan Stanley bonuses

Andre Brown is healthy.
If you don't believe the N.C. State running back, check out his stats from the NFL Combine.
Brown pumped out 24 reps on the bench press (225 pounds), ran the 40 in 4.49 seconds and uncorked a 37-inch vertical leap.
Not bad for a big-sized running back, or what Brown likes to call, a "hammer."
"I'm just trying to show everyone that I'm healthy," Brown said Wednesday. "I want to hush down all the talk that I'm injury prone."
Brown's health, and impressive workouts, have shot him up the draft board. He's expected to go in the second round on Saturday. A big back at 6-feet and 224 pounds, Brown expects to be picked by a team with a speed back in place.
He has worked out for Philadelphia (which features Brian Westbrook), San Diego (LaDainian Tomlinson and Darren Sproles) Houston (Steve Slaton) and New Orleans (Reggie Bush)— all situations where he could be a complementary back to a burner.
"I'd love to be a feature back," Brown said. "But the way the game is going, everybody's looking for a tandem situation. You get in where you fit in."
Brown hasn't been a feature back since his decorated high school career at Greenville Rose. He shared the backfield at N.C. State with Toney Baker and Jamelle Eugene.
The biggest question mark has been his health. He missed the final four games of the 2007 season with a broken bone in his left foot. He had a second surgery last April after re-injuring the same foot in spring practice.
He didn't resume running until last August and played through pain in the foot during his senior season. Despite playing at less than 100 percent, Brown led the Wolfpack with 767 rushing yardsin 2008 and seven touchdowns. He added 29 catches for 309 yards and two touchdowns.
Brown's anxious for draft day to get here. He'll watch the draft with his mom, Adrienne Winn, in Baltimore, where he grew up. He'd love the chance to play for the Ravens but he doesn't have his heart set on a particular team.
"I just want to get drafted and get the opportunity to show everybody that I'm a player," Brown said.

Joe Biden, White House Id
- By Garance Franke-Ruta
- The Atlantic
- April 25, 2013
- Leave a comment
If Barack Obama has a bit too much restraint about his persona for the commentariat, Joe Biden is the White House's exuberant and impassioned id. From "This is a big fucking deal!" to remarks that fall in Onion territory, the tactile, voluble vice president has stepped forward at key moments in White House history to say what everyone is thinking (and also, sometimes, to step in it).
Today's example was Biden unleashing a stream of wholly warranted invective at the Boston Marathon bombers. Speaking at memorial services for slain M.I.T. police officer Sean Collier, he called bombers Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev "two twisted, perverted, cowardly knock-off jihadis."

CARY — For area Latinos, the Christian holiday of Epiphany – or the revelation of Christ to the world at large – is a chance to stay in touch with their cultural roots.
It's a celebration of Three Kings Day or El Dia Del Los Reyes Magos, a holiday bigger than Christmas for most Spanish-speaking countries.
About 400 people, most of them Latino, showed up for the 8th annual Three Kings Day parade and celebration Saturday. It was held at Fred G. Bond Park by the town of Cary and Diamante Inc., a Latino cultural organization.
Lionel Trilla was impressed with the turnout. He and his family relocated to Cary from Puerto Rico about four months ago, and they were looking for a way to get in touch with other Latino families.
"I wasn't expecting that in North Carolina there were this many Latinos," Trilla said. "In New York and Florida, yes, but not in North Carolina."
As Christians head to church services Sunday to honor the day when Jesus was either baptized or first seen by three wise men, Hispanic and Latino children will wake up to find presents.
Traditionally, children place shoeboxes filled with hay or grass under their beds or Christmas tree Jan. 5. If they've been good, the same three kings who brought gold, frankincense and myrrh to baby Jesus will replace the boxes with gifts.
North Carolina has about 800,000 Latinos, according to the 2010 U.S. census. That's about 8.4 percent of the state's population.
"It's about keeping our roots, our traditions," Trilla said. "This is something our parents showed us, and our grandparents before them."
His 2-year-old daughter Rosinel said she had been good and had a gift already on her wish list: a muneca, or doll.
Helping to keep alive the culture and heritage of the Latino community in North Carolina is the reason Diamante started the parade, said board member Roberto Perez of Cary, who is Dominican.
Three Kings Day was one of his favorite days as a child.
"On Christmas we would get small presents, and on Three Kings Day we would get big presents," said Perez, who grew up in Bronx, N.Y.
In some cases, children didn't get any presents on Dec. 25 – only on Three Kings Day.
"I remember when I was younger I couldn't sleep on the fifth," said Guadalupe Ariza, who is Mexican. "I knew the next day was a big get-together with the family. And my cousins would come over, there would be food and we got to open presents."
Ariza, who now lives in Chapel Hill, said her family did not have a lot of money, but it didn't matter.
"The gifts were not big things," Ariza said. "Sometimes it was a ball or a game. Something simple. But we looked forward to it."
Ariza was one of about 20 members of Dance Tonnansin, a group from Chapel Hill, who performed a traditional Aztec dance from Mexico at Saturday's parade.
Nine Spanish-speaking countries – Bolivia, Costa Rica, Columbia, Cuba, Mexico, Panama, Peru, Puerto Rico and Venezuela – were represented during the parade through dancers in traditional dress, flags and music.
Saturday's celebration was complete with a visit from the three kings. They brought gifts for about 150 needy children and rosca cake, which hides a plastic baby, for everyone. According to Mexican tradition, the person who finds the baby must host food and drink for Candlemas, on Feb. 2.
When the Association of Puerto Ricans United of North Carolina's band took to the stage to perform classic Spanish Christmas songs such as "Feliz Navidad" and "Mi Burrito Sabanero," it was the first time Luis Santiago had ever seen his daughter,12, and son, 10, dance to Spanish music.
"They grew up here and all they want to do is dance hip-hop music," said Santiago, who was born in Puerto Rico.
But, he's made sure that his children know about Three Kings Day.
"It's about tradition," Santiago said.

BALTIMORE — The good staffers of Vice President Selina Meyer's office had been trying to put out a fire all afternoon when their slightly discombobulated leader, played by Julia Louis-Dreyfus, turned up on the set of HBO's "Veep."
Before she stepped into character, however, Louis-Dreyfus had a question.
"Did you talk to the actors about the script changes?" she said to the show's creator and all-around head coach, Armando Iannucci, as he sat behind a monitor watching takes. He nodded. "Good," she smiled, then stepped in front of the camera, where in the next scene her character took hold of a developing crisis — and made it much worse.

Fortran: A few historical details
Ancient History
In 1954 computing history was made when an IBM team lead by John Backus produced Fortran, the first high-level programming language. Because its competition was with assembly languages, efficiency was a primary concern and so the first compiler was an optimising compiler. This focus on efficiency has continued throughout Fortran's history.
In 1958 the first major revision of the language by IBM, Fortran II, introduced the concept of subroutines. Development of the language continued, not just by IBM but also by many other manufacturers, resulting in conflicting implementations on different systems. Some of the non-IBM versions became very popular, for example WATFOR and WATFIV.
In 1962 the differences between the different versions lead to growing pressure for standardisation of the language. Vendors would not give up the right to make extensions, but users who wrote to the standard could expect their code to have a good chance of compiling and even running successfully on different systems. In 1966 this resulted in the publication by ANSI (the American National Standards Institute) of the first programming language standard, now known as Fortran 66.
Fortran 66 remained the standard Fortran over a decade before dissatisfaction with some of the limitations of the language lead to the publication, again by ANSI, of a revised standard in 1978. This was known as Fortran 77, because the technical content was agreed in 1977 even though the publication was a year later. Notable new features of Fortran 77 were the CHARACTER data type and the block IF (IF - THEN - ELSE - ENDIF). Fortran 77 was not a superset of Fortran 66, having numerous (mostly minor) incompatibilities. For example, the "extended-range DO loop" was completely deleted from the standard.
In 1980 the ANSI Fortran 77 standard was published by ISO as an International Standard, without change.
Recent History: Fortran Language Standards
After many false starts (Fortran 82, Fortran 8x, Fortran 88) and much controversy, a greatly revised Fortran standard was published by ISO in 1991. This was known as Fortran 90; again, because the technical content was fully decided in 1990. It was a proper superset of Fortran 77 - all of the Fortran 77 language was included in the Fortran 90 standard. At this point NAG enters the compiler scene, releasing a compiler for the new language immediately after publication of the new standard. Other compiler vendors followed over the following two years.
It was widely agreed that the long gap between the Fortran 77 and 90 revisions had been detrimental to the language. Furthermore, as Fortran 90 was such a major revision a number of mistakes were found in the first couple of years after publication. Therefore, it was decided to produce a minor revision of the language in 1995. Initially, it was suggested that this minor revision should have no additions at all, only corrections, but activities elsewhere in the Fortran community (in particular, the High Performance Fortran activity) convinced the committee that a small number of extensions would be helpful.
This resulted in the publication of the Fortran 95 standard; due to delays in the standardisation process however, publication did not take place until December 1997. Notable new features were elemental procedures, the FORALL construct (only useful on parallel machines) and default initialisation for user-defined types.
Unlike Fortran 90, Fortran 95 was not a superset; it deleted a small number of so-called obsolescent features. This incompatibility is more theoretical than real however, as all existing Fortran 95 compilers include the deleted features as extensions.
Even before Fortran 95 was finished, work was underway on discovering user requirements for a more major revision of the standard. Originally this was to have been Fortran 2000, but the perhaps inevitable delays in deciding its content meant that the schedule slipped and so it became Fortran 2003.
The Fortran 2003 standard was published at the end of 2004.
Notable new features include C interoperability and object orientation. Most Fortran 95 vendors are known to be working at integrating Fortran 2003 features into their compilers; due to the size and number of new features, it is not to be expected that the next releases of these compilers will contain all of Fortran 2003, but that they will gradually become full Fortran 2003 compilers over the next couple of releases.

An empty big rig leaving the south I-5 barreled through a stoplight on the Avenida Pico offramp Monday morning and smashed into a Volvo and BMW, sending three people to the hospital.
As of Tuesday afternoon, the occupants of the Volvo--two San Clemente women ages 23 and 25--were still fighting for their lives at Mission Hospital, said CHP Officer Chris Goodwin.
The driver and passenger of the BMW left the hospital by Tuesday afternoon, Goodwin said.
The big-rig driver sustained minor injuries as well, Goodwin said.
The ramps and Pico was closed until around 2:30 p.m. Monday as officers investigated the crash, a CHP helicopter took aerial photos and Caltrans workers assessed damage to traffic signals demolished in the wreck, according to California Highway Patrol Capt. Sandra Houston.
In the back seat of the BMW was a 3-year-old and an 18-month-old, but they appeared uninjured. Houston said their child safety seats likely saved their lives.
It was unclear what caused the big rig's failure to stop at the redlight, but alcohol was ruled out as a factor in the crash, Goodwin said Tuesday.
Mary Johnson, who works at the Burger Stop fast food restaurant near the Pico/I-5 junction, said she saw a woman in the front of the Volvo unconscious after the vehicles came to rest.
Matt Brommer, an employee of the Shell station right off the eastbound lanes of Avenida Pico, said he saw the accident; he rushed outside when he heard the big rig clip the first of two traffic signal posts.
"The semi driver, I don't know if he didn't have brakes or fell asleep or what," Brommer said.
The empty semi ran the red light at the ramp, clipping an SUV that sustained minor damage and demolishing a traffic signal. The truck T-boned the Volvo on the passenger side, causing the Volvo to spin into the BMW, which then clipped a Coca-Cola truck.
The drivers of the trucks and the SUV sustained no injuries. The Coca-Cola truck was drivable, Houston said, and the driver of the initial SUV involved in the wreck was able to drive the vehicle away; he had left by 11:30 a.m.
Both the Volvo and BMW had made turns off the I-5 northbound exit ramp to head west on Pico, Houston said.
The accident occurred around 10:45 a.m. Monday. A SigAlert was issued around 11 a.m.
Goodwin urged any witnesses at the scene who did not talk to CHP investigators Monday to call the patrol at 949-487-4000.

Jim Harbaugh can't let player's foolish comments distract 49ers
Published: Wednesday, January 30, 2013 at 3:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, January 30, 2013 at 10:32 p.m.
NEW ORLEANS — Oh, to be a fly on the wall Wednesday afternoon, to watch the poor bloke assigned the unwanted task timidly approach the biggest control freak and most tightly wound coach in the NFL.
"Jim, I got something to tell you," the bloke would say, before launching into a summary of 49ers defensive back Chris Culliver's homophobic remarks.
Imagine the sound of thunder. Imagine a chair being airlifted across the room. Imagine words used by sailors on shore leave after six months at sea.
Culliver has gone brain dead. On Tuesday, he told a radio shock jock gays aren't welcome on the 49ers. "I don't do the gays, man ... Can't be with that sweet stuff ... They gotta get up out of here if they do." While his syntax was garbled, not revealing a highly educated man, Culliver's intent was clear even if his language was not.
He's an idiot.
More importantly, what does Harbaugh do about it? Culliver has just become the biggest story of Super Bowl XLVII for the wrong reason.
We once thought the enduring image would be Baltimore linebacker Ray Lewis chasing deer and their antlers through a forest for their sweet stuff. However sketchy and ridiculous, at least that story had a little bite to it. This? This is a shark threatening to gobble up everything in its path, including Harbaugh's obsessive and hard-fought attempt to eliminate distractions and keep everyone focused.
It was working until Wednesday. Apparently Culliver didn't get the memo that months ago when Harbaugh announced he does not discriminate. He just wants players. Apparently Culliver forgot the 49ers have worked hard to support the LGBT community. Apparently Culliver forget he plays for a team in San Francisco and that while his remarks would be viewed with revulsion anywhere, they are particularly toxic in the Bay Area.
"There's an easy way out of that (responding)," said Mike Roan, the El Molino athletic director who played tight end for the Tennessee Titans in Super Bowl XXXIV. "You just say no comment."
Roan remembers his Super Bowl week. "It's one of my burning memories of the week," he said, "walking into the interview rooms and being descended upon by so many people."
Roan had his radar up, as most players do. Roan thought Culliver, 24, should have known something was awry when Artie Lange began the one-minute interview — yes it lasted only one minute — by asking Culliver how many white women did he plan to have sex with during Super Bowl week. Right then, Culliver should have excused himself and left the room as if his hair was on fire. Culliver stayed, clearly starved for attention. A nickel back on pass coverage doesn't get a lot of Super Bowl interest.
"Harbaugh has done such a good job with keeping his team focused," Roan said, "I think he'll be all right."
No one knows, of course. The impact has yet to play out; the story is still gathering legs. The Super Bowl is still days away and judging how Culliver and his publicity man have tried to spin it, they didn't get themselves out from under it. If anything, they piled more logs on the fire Culliver started.
"The derogatory comments I made yesterday were a reflection of thoughts in my head, but this is not how I feel," Culliver said in a prepared statement.
Huh? So his thoughts were like marbles, bouncing around inside his head, with no direction and purpose? All the while he is feeling deep love for people of all backgrounds? This is the way a drunk talks to a cop who just pulled him over: "I like drinking while driving but that isn't how I actually feel about it." That'll get him in the back seat of police cruiser.
"All of this was just a big mistake," said his agent Theodore Palmer. "It was interpreted wrong."
Now I know how difficult it must be to defend an idiot.
"Hopefully he doesn't believe those things," Roan said, "and just got caught up in the moment."
This is what Harbaugh should do.
Remove Culliver from the Super Bowl. Sure, it might hurt the 49ers' chances but what's more important here — Winning a football game or ethical integrity? Homophobia or tolerance? Anger or compassion?
Should we act as if all of a sudden, in just 24 hours, Culliver stopped being a homophobe? I'd believe the marbles in the head before I would believe this.
So many times we have seen professional athletes say and do whatever they pleased. And their team bails them out, spinning the embarrassment to where it almost feels harmless.
Not this time. The 49ers can't shovel this under the Superdome carpet, not with 3,000 media members around America's biggest and most glamorous stage in sports. They can't just say Chris Culliver has learned his lesson and so there you have it. They just can't do that. They just can't.

A grassroots attempt to get a recall of a school board trustee on the ballot has failed.
Assistant Registrar of Voters Stacey Cotter said signatures for a recall of Los Banos Unified School District Trustee Dennis Areias were not turned in by the Aug. 16 deadline.
A group of 10 residents decided to start the recall drive in response to the reassignment of former Los Banos High School Principal Dan Martin.
The petition was approved April 16, and the group had until last week to collect 2,915 signatures. It is unknown how many signatures were collected.
The petition stated that Areias should be recalled because "He's shown a serious lack of sound judgment, including the reassignment of a competent and successful high school principal."
It also refers to Areias as having "disregard for public input" and having directed "caustic and derisive statements at teachers and students during open forum sessions at school board meetings."
Tuesday morning, Areias told the Enterprise he's grateful to the public for standing by him, but he's sorry he was never able to address the issue face to face.
"It's disappointing that people will print something that's not true and won't meet with me about it," Areias said. "Nine of these people I don't know, and to this day they have not come to me to discuss their problem with me.
"I wish they would call me."
Obie O'Brien is the only one of the 10 recall proponents that Areias said he knows. Last week, O'Brien told the Enterprise that he had no personal vendettas against Areias.
"I just didn't like how the school board is going," O'Brien said before it was announced that the recall effort did not succeed. "People have told me we have an uphill battle with the recall. The town is too small, everybody knows everybody."
Areias said he believes voters' familiarity with him and his family caused the recall not to get on the ballot. He pointed to his family's involvement in 4-H and FFA activities as an example of how he's helped children through the years. He also said that as a school board member, his advocacy for more money to be put toward education shows his commitment to helping children.
"We all know this is the Dan Martin thing," Areias said of the effort to recall him.
On Aug. 9, 2012 Areias was part of a 5-2 vote to reassign Martin to administrator of special projects after Superintendent Steve Tietjen said he had lost confidence in Martin's ability to perform his job.
Areias and board president Chase Hurley are the only two school board members left in office who voted for Martin's reassignment.
At that school board meeting last year, Areias told Martin supporters that he would make a decision and that they could call him to discuss it or vote him out of office if they did not like it.
Areias, 56, has been on the school board since 1997.
In a letter to the editor in the Aug. 16 edition of the Enterprise, the committee to recall Areias vowed to support opposition candidates in the next school board election.
Areias said he is not worried.
"I'm not a politician. I'm not going to sit here and start campaigning," he said. "The school board ran before I was on it and the school board will run after I'm off. I just hope if voters do put someone else in, they will pay attention to the (financial needs) of the district."
The proponents of the recall are Ealtha Davis, Jerry Davis, Gerald "Obie" R. O'Brien, Arlene M. O'Brien, Raymond Razo, Fredrick Todd, Diana Todd, Daryl Van Dyke, Diane Van Dyke and Denise Robinson.

Lunchtime Distraction: Put "gingerbread houses" on short list of things Clint Dempsey can't do
Dec 19, 2012, 1:00 PM EDT
"It's very abstract … We take it to the next level, you know?"
That was Clint Dempsey's way trying to salvage a gingerbread house his group of four Spurs teammates woefully failed to assemble.
The scene: Tottenham has players break off into three teams with the task of putting together the houses. Group with the nicest house wins and gets a chance to present it at a Spurs community outreach event. The losers have to gorge themselves on frosting before André Villas-Boas's next training session.
So who won? Well, check it out yourself, but suffice to say the U.S. is well represented in the building edible model houses world.

August 1, 2014
A line of thunderstorms swept across the Brazos Valley Tuesday night into Wednesday morning producing heavy rain, hail, lightning and strong winds, along with one tornado warning.
This came during a severe thunderstorm watch that remained in effect for Brazos, Burleson, Grimes, Houston, Madison, Montgomery, San Jacinto, Trinity and Walker Counties through 1am Wednesday.
A tornado warning was issued for Grimes, Walker and Montgomery Counties when conditions became ripe for the formation of a tornado.
So far no reports of any damage.
There were some reports of localized minor flooding in various counties.
There were also reports of lightning strikes. The Raising Canes restaurant on Texas Avenue in College Station reported a lightning hit, but only smoke. There was no indication of the amount of damage. The manager expected the restaurant to be on open on Wednesday.
Rain amounts across the region ranged from a tenth of an inch up to 3 inches.
