True Detective: How They Shot That Incredible 6-Minute Runaway Scene—Plus, Alexandra Daddario Previews What's Ahead
Tierney Bricker, eonline
Tue Feb 11, 4:32 AM UTC
Best. Scene. Of. The. TV. Season.
As if True Detective wasn't already one of the best new series of the year, they had to go and top themselves in the Sunday, Feb. 9 episode, when, in a stunning display of filmmaking, they ended their fourth episode, "Who Goes There," with a six-minute scene that was filmed in one take. Yes, you read that right: a six-minute long shot of a robbery-gone-wrong, with Cohle ( Matthew McConaughey) running away from the scene of a failed drug bust through a housing project into Hart's ( Woody Harrelson) car.
In an interview with MTV News , director Cary Fukunaga, who has employed the epic single-take before in Jane Eyre and Sin Nombre, revealed the HBO drama filmed the intricate scene seven times

True Detective filmed the sequence in an actual housing development, which took weeks to secure permission to do, with Fukunaga plotting out the "the most interesting path, but also the most logical path."
And prior to filming, Fukunaga said the crew practiced the scene in a replica of the house so they could carefully choreograph every beat.
"We had ADs [assistant directors] all over the neighborhood because we had to release extras, crowd running background, police cars, stunt drivers. There were actual gun shots and stones being thrown through windows. There were a lot of things to put together," he explained. "Even the action, the stunt sequences were complicated. We're working on a television schedule. It isn't like a film where you can spend a lot of time working the stunts out with the actors. We only had a day and a half to get Matthew and everyone else on the same page."

But the tension wasn't limited to just the heist scene during the episode as Lisa ( Alexandra Daddario) revealed her affair with Hart to Maggie ( Michelle Monaghan), his wife, who then took the kids and left him.
Of the troublemaking Lisa, Daddario told us, "It was fun to play that, just a little crazier and different than any other character I've ever played." And while she couldn't say much about what's ahead in the final four episodes, she gushed, "It gets really exciting."

As for her headline-making nude scene in the second episode, Daddario admitted. "There's something very nerve-racking about doing something like that for the first time, just like going in front of a camera for the first time and having your first line. But I tried not to think about it too much and I understood why it was important in the story and for my character and for Woody's character. I just tried not to think about it and that was pretty much it. I think it makes total sense in the story."
True Detective airs Sundays at 9 p.m. on HBO.

A wild finish, a surprising winner at Sherwood
A wild finish, a surprising winner at Sherwood
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. — Even with a two-shot lead going into the final round of a tournament he had won five times, Tiger Woods expected a fight to finish from Zach Johnson. He never could have imagined how Johnson would steal the show at Sherwood.
Johnson was four shots behind with eight holes to play against the No. 1 player in the world.
He was playing his fourth shot on the par-4 closing hole from 58 yards away in a drop area, figuring his only chance was to get up-and-down for a bogey and hope that Woods couldn't convert a par from a tough spot in the bunker.

Portfolio Update 5/21/2013 8 comments
Today (May 21, 2013), SPWR looked pretty strong in pre-market trading and as soon as the markets opened, the stock galloped right out of the gates and in no time was up more than $1 in early trading, going as high as $23.72, before losing steam...
However, I was not fooled by SPWR's fake show of strength and I quickly dumped my remaining 300 June $15 contracts at an average price of $8.35. less brokerage commissions...And, as stated in my post from this morning, yesterday I sold 400 contracts of these same June $15 CALLS at an average price of $7.738
Therefore, over the course of yesterday and today, I exited out of my 700 contracts of SPWR June $15 CALLS and these sales netted total cash of a little over $500K...
Here are the screen shots of the sales, both from yesterday and today:
Again, as per my plan, which was telegraphed here first, I decided to use my new cash hoard to buy WFR CALLS...Now that I have generated substantial cash over the course of the last 4+ months, I will focus more on cash preservation...therefore, on the WFR CALLS, I decided to play somewhat safe by buying January 2014 option contracts with strike prices of $6.00 and $7.00.
I bought 1700 contracts of WFR's January 2014 $6.00 strike price at an average cost per option of $1.834 + commissions and 1000 contracts of its January 2014 $7.00 strike price at an average cost of $1.39 + commissions.
BTW, almost all of the trades shown in the screen shots above (both SPWR and WFR options), can be attributed to my buying and selling...LOL!
Since it is now way past my bedtime and I still need to be up bright and early before the markets open, I will call it a night and hit the sack...later, I will update the Excel spreadsheet with the most recent trades in the portfolio, and post it here.
DISCLAIMER: All postings made here are strictly for my personal record keeping and in no way, shape or form, am I even remotely suggesting others to follow my Buy and Sell moves. Trading options is definitely not for the faint of heart as one's portfolio can move up, or down, anywhere between 10%-30% during a single trading day. Feel free to follow my progress here, but PLEASE do not follow my moves. However, if, in spite of all my exhortations, should you decide to do so, be advised that you, and ONLY YOU will be responsible for any losses that you may suffer...In other words, the onus is strictly on you. On the other hand, if the move(s) result in a profit for you, I am open to discussing a split. ;-)

Great call again on SPWR retreating after hitting 23 plus! I noticed the CEO of MEMC Elect. purchased quite a few shares of his company in the open market. I decided to pick up some of the WFR Oct. $7 calls as well. Looks like we have some resistance at the $7 share price, what is your time frame on when we might break through? Also, what price do you think it could run to? Thanks in advance!
Actually I invested (options) in all those 3, But after that UN-China meeting failure options price fell down by 12%, 64%, 76% (In the same order). So how should we react to that...
Your view is greatly appreciated. :)
(I started my firs trading just few weeks back..I am a beginner, So my terminology may not be correct... Sorry for that)
Thanks,Karthik -
First off, I want to make it abundantly clear that I am not a licensed broker or financial adviser and this blog is my personal space on the Internet and it's only purpose is to document my strategy(ies) and moves as I manage this public portfolio that closely mirrors my personal, real life portfolio...

Hi kp,
Where do you see the price rising to if any. Do you feel it fight back to it's $15 single resistance from 2011?
I am in the solar industry and I know LG has been making a string push in the market. Do you see LG solar having any significant affect on their stock price this year? -
As I mentioned in my response to another poster's question, I expect WFR's share price to go to $13.50 in the intermediate term 30-60 days...
Thanks KP.

Power knocked out on Bay Bridge and Richmond/San Rafael Bridge
Weather officials are issuing warnings for heavy rain, high winds and floods for much of the Bay Area this morning.
There are full or partial power outages on the Bay Bridge, Richmond San Rafael Bridge, San Mateo Bridge and Carquinez Bridge. The metering lights are also out on the Bay Bridge.
A Flash Flood Warning was issued for Petaluma until 6:15 this morning. Penngrove Stream is topping its bank. Small rivers and streams are at increased risk for flooding, especially in the upper Sacramento River region.
Officials say the storm could cause flooding on roads and trigger rock and mud slides. On the coast there are gale warnings and small-craft and high-surf advisories.
Thousands of people around the Bay Area are waking up without power. PG&E says more than 4,500 customers are affected by outages in Marin County. More than 4,300 customers are without electricity in San Mateo, more than 2,800 in Napa County. And, nearly 2,500 customers are without power in Santa Clara County.
Crews around the Bay Area are expecting a busy morning cleaning up downed trees as the wind and rain pick up. The rain not only saturates the ground, it also waters down trees, making them more top heavy and prone to toppling over in the wind. There have been several downed trees in the past two days already, including one just east of Windsor on Eastside Road.
"It's just over saturated it was an old oak tree. Once the water gets up in the leaves the weight tips them over," said Sonoma Co. Road Crew Mike Riker.
In Marin County, emergency crews chopped up a downed tree in Lagunitas last night. The large tree went down in the middle of the street and brought down phone and power lines with it.
Administrators with the Santa Rosa City School District are meeting with maintenance officials to decide whether to cancel classes because of the weather this morning. The school board held a special meeting last night and decided to issue a warning to students, parents and staff about the potential for closing individual schools or a district wide shut down. According to the press-democrat, they should decide within the hour whether conditions are safe for students and staff.
There are major flight delays later this morning at San Francisco International Airport. Heavy winds along with the rain and low visibility slowed the air traffic yesterday; 73 flights were cancelled yesterday morning.

Should Dress Code Infractions Send You Home From Work?
Relating to the topic of cleavage at the office, TeamSugar member ilanac13 shared how her old company handled cracking down on their dress code and said,
"HR used to have to go around and monitor what people wore because clients would come to our offices all the time and there was a line that was being crossed on what was OK to see and what wasn't. They would send people home if they weren't dressed properly...or they would make you wear a long white t-shirt over your clothes which was just as embarrassing."
The white t-shirt thing seems really nutty to me! Picturing Human Resources putting XL Hanes White T-Shirts on their expense reports is a bit laughable. There wasn't a long t-shirt policy at my old job, but there were some interesting dress code related issues. Shortly after having ACL surgery, one of my colleagues came to the office in shorts because he couldn't fit pants over his large cast. They were knee-length, roomy shorts that weren't offensive to anyone, except the CEO who sent him home for disobeying the dress code — even though the guy cleared his shorts with HR before coming back to work.
Between the experiences of ilanic13 and my own, it seems that sending an employee home is something that some HR departments find useful. Do you think it's an appropriate action?

Kylie Minogue may be attracting attention with the male company she keeps, but all eyes were on her new hair do as she stepped out in New York.

The Conference took place in London on 24 April, 2012, at the historical and prestigious Institute of Directors, 116 Pall Mall, London. The meeting provided a forum for researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas and present new research results on this pressing issue for energy companies.
Considering the increased complexity of energy projects as companies are entering a new technological era marking the end of "easy oil", there is a growing concern about the real preparedness of companies to deal with the new risks they are facing. The potential severity of those risks due to the important damages caused to the environment and their possible impact on populations explain this apprehension. Furthermore, the mis-handling of recent catastrophes by large energy companies - as well as the largely unpublicised leaks - have cast serious doubts as to their ability to prevent severe accidents from occurring and if they do to limit their development.
Though most energy companies have now put in place a risk management organisation and a rigorous risk control system to comply with new laws and regulations, the lessons drawn from the recent past indicate that it did not result in much improved safety performance. In fact compliance is not enough; it does not guarantee that risks are effectively under control. Hence environmental risk and liability remains today a pressing issue for energy companies as well as policy makers, this seminar aims at providing an insight into some of its important dimensions. Among other question we have identified the following:
Energy companies are exposed to the risk of severe potential losses due to cleanup costs and compensations to be paid to the many victims - all the more if liability caps are removed - These "high impact low probability events" may indeed affect seriously the financial structure of companies. Yet it is not clearly reflected in their balance sheet. Should it be? And, if yes, how?
In the past, insurers have contributed to the emergence of new technologies and economic development by providing economic agents not only with indispensable financial guaranties in case of adverse events but also by promoting prevention and safe behaviours. With no doubt, they will have a say in this debate: what are the limits of insurability? How to deal with "moral hazard"? how to price environmental risks?
Most of energy projects are developed in order to enhance economic growth and provide nations with a reasonable level of energy security and/or take advantage of local energy resources. This explains the high degree of involvement of public authorities in energy projects developed and operated by private entities. Are public authorities taking the full measure of the environmental risks involved? Are they prepared to take charge of their own share of the responsibility and to deploy appropriate means to limit the severity of the catastrophe if needed? Recent examples seem to indicate that this is not the case.
Considering the serious threat to the environment due to the introduction of "frontier technologies" in difficult conditions, there is an urgent need for well designed safety regulations, setting standards on a "case by case" basis, with a coordinated approach.Due to the large geographical scope of major risks, there is also an obvious need for international, or at least regional, cooperation. What is the situation today? Who should be in charge?

Kansas City Chiefs: 5 Things to Be Concerned About Going Into the Bye
Kansas City Chiefs: 5 Things to Be Concerned About Going Into the Bye
The Kansas City Chiefs are not overrated. If everyone in the world thinks you're overrated, then you're not by definition. It's no secret Kansas City's schedule has been weak to this point as it seems like a required disclaimer anytime someone mentions they're 9-0. Even most Chiefs fans would agree that while they have a perfect record, they are far from a perfect team.
Regardless of the competition, Kansas City's turnaround has been nothing short of amazing. Yes, they have a lot of room to improve especially on offense, but every team has their weaknesses. Even the Denver Broncos, who many see as a better team than the Chiefs, have their shortcomings. People are often so blinded by the offensive fireworks that they tend to forget Denver allows 27.3 points per game, more than double the 12.3 per game Kansas City surrenders.
What about the level of competition? Well, the Broncos have beaten the same number of winning teams as the Chiefs (both beat the 5-4 Dallas Cowboys). The fact is, no team in the NFL is by far and away the best. There are a handful of teams in the conversation, but nobody decisively separates themselves from the pack.
Kansas City is definitely one of the teams in that conversation but like everybody else, they have plenty to work on. The bye week is coming at a perfect time for KC with their highly-anticipated matchup in Denver coming up in Week 11. Every team in the league has their concerns, and the undefeated Chiefs will have two weeks to work on some of theirs.
3. Their Passing Game Needs a Lot of Work
The young offensive line has improved a lot since Week 1, but both Alex Smith and the receivers don't seem to be moving forward with them. Smith hasn't broken 250 yards passing since Week 4, with two games throwing for 128 yards or fewer since then. As far as the pass catchers, nobody has broken 400 yards receiving yet nine games into the season.
2. They Only Beat the Buffalo Bills Because Both Teams Couldn't Lose
The Chiefs picked a great time to have their worst game of the season. Buffalo outgained Kansas City 470-210, but sloppy play from the Bills' offense gifted KC 14 points. At the Kansas City one-yard line, Jeff Tuel threw a mind-boggling ill-advised pass directly to Sean Smith, who returned it 100 yards for a TD.
Instead of taking a 14-point lead, the Bills allowed the Chiefs to tie the game with that play. Then in the fourth quarter, T.J. Graham failed to secure a reception that Marcus Cooper slapped out of his hands and Tamba Hali scooped up and returned for another defensive TD to give KC the lead for good. This was the fourth game of the season that the Chiefs could've either won or tied with no offensive scoring.
1. Third and Fourth-String QBs Are Moving the Ball Against Them
The Chiefs have faced three straight teams with either third- or fourth-string quarterbacks in Case Keenum, Jason Campbell and Jeff Tuel. The trio of backups threw for four TDs with two INTs and averaged 279 total yards. Considering Tuel and Keenum were making their first NFL starts, you would expect better from the league's best defense. The secondary will need to figure something out in their time off, because Peyton Manning and company are going to be a massive leap forward in competition.

The difference is Google tells you they keep logs. There's no speculation needed. DDG may not be perfect, but it's closer to perfect than Google.
[–]mkr 1 point2 points3 points 6 months ago
That would seem to make Google more trusthworthy. We know they keep logs, and they have a public policy on what they do with those logs. My whole point is that we don't know for sure that DDG doesn't keep logs. Neither should be completely trusted on their claims.
[–]lxskllr 2 points3 points4 points 6 months ago
DDG's policy is clear also. They don't keep logs. When you use someone else's services, you rely on them to tell the truth. If we're just making shit up and guessing, we could say Google gift wraps everything, and gives it to the government, and advertisers. Prove they don't.
I don't understand what the argument is. Google's stated policy is they track users, and collect data. They should be taken at their word. DDG's stated policy is they don't. Which service makes more sense to use?
[–]mathfreak123 0 points1 point2 points 6 months ago
That would only make Google more trustworthy if it was actually confirmed that DDG lies about its privacy policy. We don't have that sort of confirmation yet.
The point is that neither should be trusted for the exact same reason.
We know Google is being compelled to share with the NSA. DDG is in the same jurisdiction and has to contend with the same laws that force Google to give up data. There's no reason to believe DDG isn't under orders to quietly log and report to the NSA.

There's a new effort underway to combat bullying. This time it comes in the form of a bill that Louisiana state lawmakers could soon consider down in Baton Rouge. And it comes from a Shreveport state representative.
Christmas tree recycling began in East Baton Rouge Parish the day after Christmas, but you still have to drop off the trees yourself for now.
Curbside pickup starts on Jan. 7 and lasts through Jan. 20.
You can drop off the trees at BREC parks, the LSU campus near the vet school or the Pecue Wood Recycling Facility.
Officials said make sure it is free of ornaments, decorations, lights and stands.
"They go to a facility that's our contractor for composting in the city-parish and they're ground up and turned into mulch and garden material," said Bob Dillemuth with the Baton Rouge Recycle Office. "Some of them are marketed throughout the garden industry and some of them we give back to the public through our mulch giveaways."
Also, large cardboard boxes can be flattened and put out by the road for pick up.
Wrapping paper is recycled, but tissue paper and foil paper are not.
The following drop-off collection sites will continue to accept trees through Monday, January 28, 2013.

Overall our experience was satisfactory. The maintenance left something to be desired. The toilet was completely loose, which meant being careful when using it. The bathroom door had the latch mechanism installed backwards requiring us to manually depress the latch when closing the door. Maintenance personal need much training. The free breakfast wasn't worth the bother, so we went to a local restaurant for breakfast. Sink and tub drains were somewhat plugged. Required time for water to drain. ...
July 18, 2013
I would not choose to stay there again. It needs some repairs, is run down. The breakfast room in the basement was poor. There were few choices. We stayed the next 2 nights in 2 other chain hotels-one in Spearfish and one in Billings for the same price. Both were far superior.

This motel was kind of quaint, but when we could not go to the breakfast for breakfast because it was down steep stairs or go to the outside end door to get to breakfast room. We said no because by this time we were to aggravated and went to McDonald's for breakfast.

Last updated at 12:42, Thursday, 17 January 2013
A busy Cockermouth road has reopened after a collision at about 10.45am this morning.
Lorton Street was blocked after a Daihatsu Terios 4x4 and a Nissan Micra were in collision on the bridge.
The 31-year-old driver of the Nissan was taken to Whitehaven's West Cumberland Hospital with minor injuries.
The 61-year-old driver of the Daihatsu was not injured.
Cumbria County Council's Highways team were called to assess if the bridge has been damaged and to clear the cars from the road.
The road reopened at about 12.15pm.

Third Base Notes: Reynolds, Young, Drew
By · CommentsThe Yankees now know, for certain, that Alex Rodriguez will not be available to them this coming season. Arbitrator Fredric Horowitz officially reduced A-Rod's suspension from 211 games to 162 games yesterday, but make no mistake, it was a huge win for MLB. They wanted Alex out of the game for the year and that's what they got. The Yankees now have an extra $25M or so to spend but they also need a new third baseman.
With the ruling now handed down, the team will likely begin looking for a third base replacement in earnest. Here's the latest on the hot corner situation courtesy of Anthony McCarron, Andrew Marchand, and Dan Martin:
- The Yankees continue to mull a reunion with Mark Reynolds, but they are only offering a minor league contract at this time. Such an agreement has been dubbed "unlikely."
- Michael Young is also being considered and the two sides have been talking. It is "too early to tell" if anything will come from it, however. The Yankees tried to acquire Young at the trade deadline.
- The Yankees remain uninterested in Stephen Drew for whatever reason. Brian Cashman said they won't be signing him last week. Drew has never played a position other than shortstop as a pro.
- Cashman said the team does not view Brendan Ryan or Eduardo Nunez as third base options, thankfully. Kelly Johnson is an option but his experience at the position is limited (16 games, all last year).
Arbitrator upholds 162-game suspension; AROD set to sue
By · CommentsBarring further court action, Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez will be suspended for the entire 2014 season for violating MLB's Joint Drug Argument, arbitrator Fredric Horowitz has decided. Horowitz has upheld A-Rod's ban but has reduced MLB's penalty from 211 games to 162 (plus any Yankee playoff games). Essentially, A-Rod was allowed to play out the 2013 part of his suspension while appealing, but the initial penalty has been upheld.
Rodriguez has issued a statement vowing to appeal the suspension in federal court, but his faces long odds as federal courts are reluctant to overturn arbitration rulings absent obvious factual issues, gross misconduct on the part of the arbitrator or if the award was based on corruption, fraud, or undue means. Even then, courts grant broad discretion to arbitration rulings, especially those that arise out of collective bargaining arrangements.
A-Rod released his statement on Facebook, and our own Mike Axisa runs down the background of the Biogenesis/A-Rod scandal in his post on CBS Sports. Here's what Rodriguez had to say:
"The number of games sadly comes as no surprise, as the deck has been stacked against me from day one. This is one man's decision, that was not put before a fair and impartial jury, does not involve me having failed a single drug test, is at odds with the facts and is inconsistent with the terms of the Joint Drug Agreement and the Basic Agreement, and relies on testimony and documents that would never have been allowed in any court in the United States because they are false and wholly unreliable. This injustice is MLB's first step toward abolishing guaranteed contracts in the 2016 bargaining round, instituting lifetime bans for single violations of drug policy, and further insulating its corrupt investigative program from any variety defense by accused players, or any variety of objective review.
I have been clear that I did not use performance enhancing substances as alleged in the notice of discipline, or violate the Basic Agreement or the Joint Drug Agreement in any manner, and in order to prove it I will take this fight to federal court. I am confident that when a Federal Judge reviews the entirety of the record, the hearsay testimony of a criminal whose own records demonstrate that he dealt drugs to minors, and the lack of credible evidence put forth by MLB, that the judge will find that the panel blatantly disregarded the law and facts, and will overturn the suspension. No player should have to go through what I have been dealing with, and I am exhausting all options to ensure not only that I get justice, but that players' contracts and rights are protected through the next round of bargaining, and that the MLB investigation and arbitration process cannot be used against others in the future the way it is currently being used to unjustly punish me.
I will continue to work hard to get back on the field and help the Yankees achieve the ultimate goal of winning another championship. I want to sincerely thank my family, all of my friends, and of course the fans and many of my fellow MLB players for the incredible support I received throughout this entire ordeal."
For MLB, this suspension is largely unprecedented. The JDA allows for a 50-game ban for an initial failed test, but it also grants the commissioner power to suspend a player for "just cause." Horowitz has apparently upheld a broad grant of power in this "just cause" provision, and ARod's suspension becomes the largest in MLB history over PED use, suspected or otherwise.
For the Yankees, this leaves a gaping hole on the left side of the infield. Already filled with old or fringe players, the infield has no third base anchor, and the remaining free agent market is weak, to say the least. (Just say no to Michael Young.) The team will get to save $25 million of A-Rod's salary, less a $3 million signing bonus, but I'd rather see a better team on the field than Plan 189 or more money in the Steinbrenner family's pockets. The gap his bat leaves in the lineup is significant as well, and the team is, as currently constructed, worse without A-Rod than with him.
The Players' Association, meanwhile, issued a statement as well: "The MLBPA strongly disagrees with the award issued today in the grievance of Alex Rodriguez, even despite the Arbitration Panel's decision to reduce the duration of Mr. Rodriguez's unprecedented 211-game suspension. We recognize that a final and binding decision has been reached, however, and we respect the collectively-bargained arbitration process which led to the decision. In accordance with the confidentiality provisions of the JDA, the Association will make no further comment regarding the decision." They are, in effect, washing their hands of this mess and, it seems, ceding power to Bud Selig and the Commissioner's Office. That's a risky move.
Some fans who despised A-Rod will rejoice; others who loved him, warts and all, and loved watching him hit will not. It's not a good day for baseball though as shady dealings and PED use remain in the headlines.
ByMarcus: A-Rod ruling imminent; decision appears favorable to MLB A ruling in Alex Rodriguez's appeal hearing is imminent, according to Steven Marcus. It's unclear if that means a matter of minutes or hours or another day or two. Who really knows at this point. Marcus adds that arbitrator Frederic Horowitz's ruling appears to be favorable for MLB. I'm not exactly sure any of this is new information at this point, really. · (7) ·
There are less than two weeks left in Masahiro Tanaka's signing period, and if the Yankees manage to lure him to New York, an argument can be made they signed the two best free agent starters this winter. The team re-upped Hiroki Kuroda to a one-year, $16M contract weeks ago, but because he was re-signed and not brought in from another team, it doesn't really feel like an addition. It's weird.
A few days ago, Kuroda spoke to Sponichi Annex about all sorts of interesting and important topics. A reader (@iyasuN) was kind enough to send me a translation … like a real translation, not some Google translate gibberish. Kuroda discussed a whole bunch of stuff, so here's a point-by-point rundown.
On playing in 2014
Kuroda said he seriously considered retirement this offseason and spoke to Hideki Matsui — he holds Matsui in very high regard among his peers (they're the same age) — about walking away at Mariano Rivera's retirement ceremony in September. Matsui told Kuroda he retired because "he did everything he could and he was done." Because he is healthy and doesn't have any physical problems (like Matsui's knees), Kuroda decided to return for another season. He is very much year-to-year at this point of his career, however.
On re-signing with the Yankees
Once he decided to pitch another season, Kuroda gave the Yankees "top priority" during the offseason. The Hiroshima Carp (his former team in Japan) did contact him over the winter but by then he had already decided to return to New York. If he does ever return to the Japan, it will be for Hiroshima and not another club.
On the Yankees and a contract extension
The Yankees approached Kuroda about an extension the day after he beat the Angels for his 11th win of the season (so August 13th). Hal Steinbrenner specifically told him they were "ready to talk" that day in the Yankee Stadium weight room and soon opened negotiations with his agent. Kuroda was not ready to commit to another year just yet, so nothing came of it. Between Kuroda, Robinson Cano, and Russell Martin a few years ago, the Yankees appear to be loosening on that archaic "no extensions" policy.
On his late-season fade
Kuroda was unable to figure out why he struggled so much late in the season, but, in hindsight, he thinks he put too much pressure on himself and worked too hard early in the season, especially as the team struggled. From the beginning of May through the end of July, the Yankees scored a total of 41 runs in his 16 starts, an average of 2.56 runs per start. That's an awful lot of stressful innings. Kuroda said he simply wore himself out both physically and mentally, and there was nothing in the tank those last few weeks.
On throwing 200+ innings
Although he has thrown at least 200 innings each of the last three seasons, Kuroda isn't sure how important that is to him. He specifically cited Andy Pettitte, who scaled back his workload later in his career and was successful all season and into the postseason. (Pettitte last threw 200+ innings in 2008.) Given his age, Kuroda indicated he and the team might try to control his workload a bit better next year in an effort to stay fresh for all 162 games and a potential postseason run. He'd rather be a 180+ inning guy who is effective all season than a 200+ inning guy who is out of gas in September. Makes sense to me.
ByUpdate: Yankees announce Matt Thornton signing 4:14pm: The Yankees have officially announced Matt Thornton's two-year contract and confirmed Wells has been designated for assignment.
1:16pm: According to his Twitter feed, the Yankees have cut ties with Vernon Wells. Buster Olney says he was designated for assignment. The Yankees need 40-man roster space for both Brian Roberts and Matt Thornton and this clears one spot. Wells, 35, hit .233/.282/.349 (70 wRC+) last season and although he would have counted as $0 against the luxury tax in 2014, the team still owes him $2.4M in real dollars. The Angels owe him $18.6M. · (103) ·
ByUpdate: Dodgers "won't spend wildly" to sign Masahiro Tanaka 3:42pm: Now Nightengale says the Dodgers "won't spend wildly" on Tanaka. So, yeah. Your guess is as good as mine. Meanwhile, John Shea hears Tanaka prefers to play in New York, Los Angeles, or Boston.
3:00pm: Via Bob Nightengale: The Dodgers have let it be known they "plan to go all-out" to sign Masahiro Tanaka and claim they will not allow themselves to be out-bid. That could just be posturing or, given how Los Angeles has spent these last two years, completely sincere. The Yankees are interested in Tanaka but it is unclear exactly how far they're willing to go to sign him. The signing deadline for Tanaka is two weeks from today. · (59) ·
ByMcCullough: Yankees monitoring Johan's rehab; could repeat 2011 pitching strategy Via Andy McCullough: The Yankees are one of several teams monitoring Johan Santana as he rehabs from his second torn shoulder capsule. He has not yet thrown off a mound. "I don't know what to think of Johan right now. I haven't looked at his medicals," said Brian Cashman at the Winter Meetings. Joe wrote about Santana as a potential target last month.
Aside from monitoring Johan, McCullough also mentions Cashman has discussed replicating the team's 2010-11 offseason pitching plan. They signed cheap guys like Freddy Garcia and Bartolo Colon after missing out on Cliff Lee, as I'm sure you remember. If the Yankees fail to sign Masahiro Tanaka before his deadline in two weeks, the alternative might not be Ubaldo Jimenez or Matt Garza. They could target cheaper options and that's not necessarily a bad idea. · (19) ·
Mailbag: Ellsbury, Damon, Blanton, Soriano
By · CommentsFive questions and five answers this week. If you want to send us a mailbag question, you probably know how to do it by now. (Hint: the Submit A Tip box in the sidebar.)
Paul asks: Are there still deals that haven't been made official yet? What's the hold-up? Is it a 40-man roster thing?
The Brian Roberts and Matt Thornton signings are still not official. I don't know why but the Yankees tend to drag these things out. I'm guessing the holidays gummed up the works as well. The 40-man roster is full so they'll have to clear up spot for both guys. They'll need to do the same if they add another starting pitcher as well, Masahiro Tanaka or otherwise. I suppose they could be working on an Ichiro Suzuki trade to open one spot, but who knows. Roberts and Thornton are the only big league contracts that are still not official yet, however.
Jake asks: Who was the better player when they signed with the Yankees, Jacoby Ellsbury or Johnny Damon?
To the table:
Age | Games | AVG | OBP | SLG | wRC+ | HR | SB | SB% | DRS | fWAR | |
2011-13 Ellsbury | 27-29 | 366 | .303 | .356 | .469 | 123 | 45 | 105 | 82.6% | +23 | 16.3 |
2003-05 Damon | 29-31 | 443 | .298 | .364 | .440 | 110 | 42 | 67 | 81.7% | -17 | 9.4 |
Ellsbury was the better player overall in the three years prior to signing with the Yankees — Damon was way more durable; his ability to stay on the field was always a big part of his value — but remember that a lot of his production came during that outlier 2011 campaign. Like, 32 of the 45 homers and 9.4 of the 16.3 fWAR came that year. That season is getting further back in the rear-view mirror and I'm not all that confident Ellsbury will come close to that production again. Hopefully he proves me wrong.
I think the best way to answer this question is that Ellsbury is the more exciting player and he offered a greater upside, but Damon was more predictable and reliable. Ellsbury is a few years younger now than Damon was when he joined the Yankees and that's a big deal. The team will, at least theoretically, get more of Ellsbury's prime years. The Yankees are obviously counting on that considering the contract they gave him.
Alex asks: What about Joe Blanton as a depth signing? The Angels appear ready to release him this offseason and if the Yanks don't add Tanaka (or even if they do), there could be value in a workhorse who underperformed his peripherals. What would his upside realistically be?
I mean this is in the nicest possible way:
Blanton was the worst pitcher in baseball last year, so bad that the pitching-starved Angels dropped him from their rotation. He hasn't been even a league average pitcher since 2009 and he's underperformed his peripherals in each of the last four seasons (5.09 ERA and 4.32 FIP in 540.2 innings since 2010). I have no reason to think a righty with a below-average fastball (averages a touch over 89 mph these days) will buck that trend in a small ballpark in the AL East. I don't see Blanton as an upgrade over David Phelps, Adam Warren, or Vidal Nuno. He's not even worth a 40-man roster spot in my opinion. Easy pass, even if he comes for the minimum. The Yankees need to add good pitchers. Emphasis on good.
Nick asks: With all the talk of contract overpaying this winter, I'd like to bring up Alfonso Soriano. If the Cubs are paying $13m of the $18m he's owed in 2014, and even at age 38, couldn't he be a bit of a bargain? $5m for a .250/.310/.480 hitter with 30+homers seems reasonable no?
Oh yes, absolutely. The three projection systems at FanGraphs (ZiPS, Steamer, Oliver) work out to a combined .240/.293/.455 batting line with 25 homers and 11 steals per 500 plate appearances, and that's with Oliver expecting him to fall off a cliff (-0.1 fWAR). That is definitely worth $5M right there, especially to the Yankees given where they sit on the win curve. Soriano just turned 38 and there's a chance he will completely crash and show his age next year, but the upside is a 30-homer, 10-steal right-handed batter. Getting that for $5M is great in this market. Among the guys who are not still in their arbitration or pre-arbitration years, Soriano is probably the best dollar-for-dollar player on the roster.
Kevin asks: Am I the only one who really likes Nik Turley? I don't think he'll be more than a #4 but the Yankees need to stop walking away from these back-end starter prospects. We could really use a young guy to soak up innings, even if its not elite status.
I see Turley as another member of the Phelps, Warren, and Nuno group, just a notch below because he hasn't spend significant time in Triple-A yet. Solid enough to be a back-end starter but not exactly someone who is going to come up and make a real impact in the rotation. There is value in that, don't get me wrong. Teams need those cheap back-end types for depth and to help cover for injuries, and heck, every once in a while one will exceed expectations and turn into Doug Fister. Turley had a good year with Double-A Trenton in 2013 (3.88 ERA and 4.18 FIP in 139 innings) and as a left-hander with a good breaking ball, he'll get a million chances in this league, at worst as a reliever. I wouldn't call him untouchable but he's certainly worth keeping around. The only problem is that the Yankees have a serious 40-man roster crunch and Turley is near the bottom of the pile.
Thursday Night Open Thread
By · CommentsSeven years ago today, the Yankees traded Randy Johnson back to the Diamondbacks for four players, the most useful of whom proved to be right-hander Luis Vizcaino. I looked for some highlight videos of Johnson during his time in New York, and, long story short, I got stuck in a YouTube wormhole and wound up at the Tino Martinez-Armando Benitez brawl. That was pure chaos. The whole video is worth watching but the best part is at the 6:00 mark. And no, I never did find a decent Randy Johnson highlight video to post.
Here is tonight's open thread. The Devils and Knicks are both playing, so talk about those games, the Tino-Benitez brawl, the upcoming A-Rod ruling, or anything else. Have at it.
ByNYDN: A-Rod could seek injunction; would likely accept 65-game ban Via NYDN: Alex Rodriguez could ask a judge for an injunction if he feels arbitrator Frederic Horowitz hands down an unfair ruling. He is unlikely to get one, as Wendy Thurm explained in November, but it is something he could pursue as part of his scorch the Earth legal battle with MLB. "The papers are all ready. They are just waiting for the announcement," said one of the Daily News' sources.
Meanwhile, the Daily News says Rodriguez would likely accept a 65-game (or less) ban without a fight. The legal fees to combat a suspension of that size would be greater than the salary he stands to lose, they say. Ryan Braun received 65 games and both he and A-Rod were considered MLB's top targets as part of this whole Biogenesis investigation. Horowitz could hand down his ruling any day now, and the sooner that happens, the better. Let's get this show on the road already. · (67) ·

SUTD students build smart rack that takes in the laundry when it rains
Rain-soaked laundry may become a problem of the past if some university students get their way.
A quartet of freshmen from the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) have built SmartDry - an intelligent clothes rack that automatically moves clothes back into the house when it rains.
Their prototype is fitted with light and rain sensors. Under gloomy, wet conditions, the rack moves indoors and saves home owners from having to do more laundry.
"We did a survey of about 200 people, and 79 per cent said that they re-wash clothes if they are caught in the rain," said Miss Faizah Ja'affar, 20. "Our creation helps to save energy and, for the elderly, also helps to prevent the physical strain of carrying bamboo poles."

BP Plc (BP - Analyst Report) received an additional 5-year extension (2031 to 2036) from Azerbaijan related to the Shah Deniz gas project. The extension follows the company's deferment of the start date for phase 2 of the project.
The British energy major earlier planned 2018 for the first gas from the second phase of Azerbaijan's Shah Deniz gas project. Now, BP has set the end of 2017for the start-up.
In response to this, Azerbaijan has extended the Shah Deniz production sharing agreement (PSA). BP has been pumping gas in Shah Deniz since the start of its first phase in 2006, with a capacity of 8 billion cubic meters (Bcm). The second phase is estimated to generate an additional 16 Bcm per year.
Shah Deniz stands as Azerbaijan's largest gas field and is estimated to hold 1.2 trillion cubic meters of gas. The offshore Shah Deniz Phase 2 venture is operated by the British oil giant, with the other partners being Statoil ASA (STO - Analyst Report), Total SA (TOT - Analyst Report), the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR), Lukoil, Turkiye Petrolleri and Naftiran Intertrade.
BP planned to invest $10 billion for the second phase and the project partners expect to transport Azeri gas by a new pipeline to Europe as well as to the existing markets in Georgia and Turkey. In connection with the pipeline stage in Turkey, Vice President SOCAR, Elshad Nassirov, said that the BP-led consortium has already received approval for the construction of the pipeline for phase 2.
Ahead of Turkey, the co-ventures can select the Nabucco-West pipeline into Austria or the rival Trans-Adriatic pipeline (TAP) into Italy. A decision is expected by the middle of this year. The Shah Deniz group is entitled to have a 50% interest in each of the two projects.
Last year, the U.K. major faced hurdles related to the development of the oilfield block Azeri-Chirag-Gunashli (ACG) in the Azerbaijani sector of the Caspian Sea. BP has been sharply criticized by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev for lagging in production from several Caspian Sea oil fields. Lower-than-expected output has cost the Azerbaijan state an estimated US$8.1billion in revenues.
BP is one of the world's largest energy companies, providing customers fuel for transportation, energy for heat and light, retail services and petrochemical products. Although near-term production hiccups remain in Azerbaijan, BP continues to focus on long-term operations and is in discussion with the country for extending the contract and working on the fields after 2024.
ACG oilfields are divided between the operator BP with a 35.8% share and Chevron Corp. (CVX - Analyst Report), Inpex, SOCAR, Statoil, ExxonMobil Corporation (XOM), TPAO, Itocu, and Hess Corporation (HES).
BP has a Zacks Rank #3, which is equivalent to a Hold rating for a period of one to three months.

Americans suffer more chronic disease than British
The United States spends twice as much per capita each year on health care as Britain but sees higher rates of nearly every chronic disease, even among children, said a study out Wednesday.
Despite the cash outflow, Americans over 50 are in worse health than Britons and have shorter life expectancies. The trend also does not appear to be related to the fact that people in the United States tend to be fatter than the British.
"Our findings suggest that body weight is not the driving force behind the observed health differentials between the United States and England and that, if weight plays a role, it is a complicated one," said the study in the American Journal of Epidemiology.
In fact, previous studies have not found any clear evidence for the difference when looking at health insurance, behaviors, obesity, socioeconomic status or race and ethnicity, leaving researchers puzzled as to why such variations could exist among otherwise similar populations.
A possibility for further investigation could be how residents of the two countries use health care resources differently.
"Despite the greater use of health care technology in the United States, Americans receive less preventive health care than their English counterparts. They have fewer physician consultations per year," it said.
The study compared data for people aged 0 to 80 from nationally representative health surveys in Britain (Health Survey for England 2003-2006) and the United States (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 1999 to 2006).
"Overall, the United States has higher rates of chronic conditions and markers of disease than England. Differences between the two countries are statistically significant for every condition except hypertension," it said.
Chronic conditions included diabetes, asthma, heart attack, stroke, high cholesterol and high C-reactive protein, which can be a general indicator of inflammation and disease.
The US survey reported fewer cigarette smokers and heavy alcohol drinkers than in Britain, but the study cautioned that "respondents tend to underreport substance use in surveys... (so) the rates of smoking and heavy drinking should be interpreted with caution."
