Money & Banking
Markets - Economic Offences
Our Bureau
Mumbai , April 12
Banks that have been fined by the Reserve Bank of India for their involvement in the recent IPO allotment scam may find the going tough in the future.
The RBI will keep in view the violation of know-your-customer (KYC) norms by these banks while processing any application for regulatory approvals from them, a senior RBI official said today. This could also affect these banks' international dealings, he added.
Mr Lalit Srivastava, General Manager of RBI, also said that the quantum of penalties imposed on the banks is not important in the initial stages. However, the fine slapped on the banks were a signal to them.
Payment of the fines would have cleared them of the case as of now, but the RBI will take such violations into account when they consider any future regulatory approvals.
Mr Srivastava was speaking at a meeting organised by the Indian Banks Association (IBA) on compliance with KYC norms and anti-money laundering measures.
The banks fined in the recent IPO allotment scam include Bharat Overseas Bank, HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, Citibank, Standard Chartered Bank, Vijaya Bank, ING Vysya Bank, and IDBI Ltd.
These banks had allowed opening of current accounts in the names of multiple companies on the same day and in the same branch. A single person was authorised to operate all these accounts.
Mr Srivastava said that the RBI has asked banks to strictly implement the KYC norms in all branches. Outsourcing the job of verifying customer information is prohibited under the KYC guidelines, he added.

When things go bad, hire a North Korean and tell Vladimir Putin to do it.
That is apparently the approach of local communists, who have asked Russian President Vladimir Putin to fire Zenit St. Petersburg manager Luciano Spalletti and replace him with a North Korean. Not any North Korean in particular, just any North Korean.
"What Zenit need is a tough taskmaster from the DPRK where the sport is part of a daily struggle," the St. Petrsburg branch of the Communists of Russia wrote in an open letter to Putin.
Zenit paid more than $100 million for Hulk and Axel Witsel at the transfer deadline and have not fared well since. They took just one point from their two league matches and were embarrassed by Malaga 3-0 in the Champions League. A taskmaster would have never let that happen.
The problems go beyond the results, though. Established players at the club took offense at the club's spending on transfers and captain Igor Denisov was sent to the reserves after refusing to play until his contract was renegotiated. A task master would have never let that happen either.
Zenit is owned by Gazprom, which the government owns a large part of, although Zenit insists that they are spending club money and not government money.
That didn't stop the communists from asking the St. Petersburg native Putin to get involved. He declined, but the dream of the North Korean lives on. Any North Korean.

During overtime in the thursday night football Bengals vs Dolphins, the bengels faced a 2nd and 8 from somewhere in the 39 to 41 yard line. The bengals attepted to go vertical on all thier routes. To me dont you just try to at least have a slot wr run a slant to try and pick up 5-6 yards and put yourself in FG range?
Then if you pick up 5 yards you've got 3rd and 3 and your well within Mike Nuggents range. (He had just nailed a 54 yarder that easily would have went in from 65 yards.) from here try to pick up 3 on the ground. if not attempt a 55-56 yard kick
Another thing on that 4th and 8 where they punted am i the only one who thinks you go for it there? You've got 2 really talented recieving TEs and an amazing WR. does 22-23 yards of field position really make going for it THAT risky?
Finally what makes the Bengals play calling so so bad in my opinion is after just being completely conservative on their opponents 38 yard line, on their very next possession, from thier own 10 they went ultra aggressive and bombed it out 3 straight times,resulting in a sack for a safety. Basically how many of you would agree with going for it on 4th and 8?

Mary Lawrance was well-known in Georgian England as a flower painter. Her work was shown at the Royal Academy and she also gave lessons in flower painting. In 1799 she published the first ever work illustrating the many varieties of rose.
The work was published as a periodical in 30 issues and these came to be bound in many formats. One of the original volumes was passed through the generations to Clari, Jonathan Marrow's wife. By this time it had become very fragile and was sold so that it could be restored. The current volume contains most of the images, reproduced from the original volume before it was sold.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - A man appears to
have died accidentally from asphyxiation when he lowered himself off an
18-story office building in downtown Sacramento
with a rope, a fire official said Monday.
It remains undetermined why the man
created a harness and lowered himself down the east side of the high-rise, said
Sacramento Fire Department Battalion Chief Marc Bentovoja. He said the man did
not appear to work for the building and investigators are reviewing building
security cameras to determine how he got in.
It's unclear how long the body had
been hanging four floors from the top of the nearly 240-feet building.
"From everything we can tell,
he didn't have any special rope rappelling equipment on, climbing equipment or
anything like that," he said. "He appeared to be looped into the
Police and fire crews responded
after receiving a call at 7:44 a.m. Monday. Rescue personnel were seen
rappelling down the side of the building to check out the object and retrieved
the body shortly after 9 a.m.
Bentovoja said the coroner will
conduct an autopsy and even though the man had identification on him, police
were still trying to identify the man.
Formally named the 1201 K Tower, the
building houses offices for lobbyists, public relations businesses and law
firms that do business two blocks away at the Capitol.

Kevin Gallacher column: No pressure on Blackburn Rovers (From This Is Lancashire)
Kevin Gallacher column: No pressure on Blackburn Rovers
1:40pm Wednesday 23rd April 2014 in Sport By Kevin Gallacher
IF I had a message for Blackburn Rovers' players going into the final two games of the season it would be, 'put yourself in a positive frame of mind and go out and enjoy them'.
As they really have nothing to lose.
There isn't any pressure on them to get that final play-off place – it's on the teams above them.
As it stands they are the ones with something to lose, not Blackburn, as they have more points on the board.
If Blackburn can win at Charlton on Saturday they will go into the final match of the season at home to Wigan with a chance of getting sixth spot.
If they can win that too then who knows where we'll end up?
If Lady Luck is on our side and someone is looking down on us, who knows? We could well end up sixth.
All we can do is take six points out of six – it's that simple.
Does pressure come with that?
Well if it does, it's a nice pressure to have.
I would rather go out there with that on my mind than being part of a team at the bottom and being in a relegation fight – because that's true pressure.
Why shouldn't you enjoy being in a team that has to go forward, attack and try things in a bid to get a win which could get you into the play-offs and possibly earn promotion?
That's why the Blackburn players should be relishing these matches, not feeling anxious.
I believe a bit of anxiety crept into their game against Yeovil on Friday.
Nerves are understandable but if you're a professional player who wants to make it at the top level you've got to put things like that aside.
Football is 99.9 per cent mental. The technical side of the game all comes from thinking about football.
And if you've got that mental strength, that's what makes top, top footballers, along with the will to work hard.
Blackburn are certainly doing that.
They're hanging in there, there are a couple of games left, and maybe that sixth spot is waiting for us.
But unfortunately it's not in Blackburn's hands at the moment – it's up to the other teams above them to throw it away.
So we've just got to win our last two games and see where we are when the season ends at around 2pm on May 3.

As for those saying Burnley will come straight back down, I wouldn't be so sure. If relegation was based on overall performance, as opposed to points amassed, there'd be about 8 clubs relegated this season. Hate them or not, there's no denying the tenacity that Dyche has instilled in his team so, with the addition of a few players, they could quite easily find themselves above the likes of Norwich, West Brom and Hull (provided those sides stay up this season.)

Every school wants a full-time resource officer, the problem is not all districts can pay for one.
That's why officials in Laurens County are looking at how they can do more with less.
"It is now become a reality that we have to accept," said Laurens County Sheriff Ricky Chastain.
For several weeks now, Chastain has been discussing security option with school officials from District 55.
He says they have come up with a unique plan -- instead of trying to add officers, why not have deputies move in.
The sheriff's Office would install substations inside at least two of the schools which is a low-cost option to providing around-the-clock security detail.
"It is beneficial for the officers. Just because I am the one stationed here, our guys on the road pop in every day," said Barton Holmes, a SRO at Hickory Tavern Middle School.
If a school were to become a designated substation, officers would no longer drop by for a quick 'hello.'
They would conduct some of their daily work from the campus, like taking calls and filling out reports.
The hope is that if deputies were constantly going in and out of a school, their presence would discourage any would-be attackers.
"You pray and hope there is never a dangerous situation where an officer is needed," says Russell Scott, principal of Hickory Tavern Middle.
School officials say the costs would be minimal and it is certainly better than nothing.

"The War Really Changed Him"
His Turn
"Each time you're on a battlefield you leave a little piece of yourself behind," said Greg, 30. "I'm not the same person I was when I left last year, and I guess that's why it's so hard to play catch-up with my family.
"At first I was really thrilled to see Maggie and the kids. When I was overseas I missed them so much and thought about them all the time. But now that I'm home I feel distant from everyone. Maggie doesn't seem too happy to have me around, either. I don't remember the last time she spoke to me without an edge in her voice. When it gets too overwhelming, I head to my workshop, which is my safe zone.
"I just feel so confused about what I'm supposed to be doing. In Afghanistan I knew exactly what my job was. But back home I'm not sure what my role in the family is anymore. Maggie complains that I'm not helping more with stuff around the house, but she's gotten so used to taking care of things by herself that I feel like she doesn't need me to do anything but mow the lawn. And all she does is criticize me: I'm too strict with the kids...I don't go to church...I'm not involved with our family. That last criticism really hurts. I truly like being with my wife and kids, but this isn't what I expected. I had visions of all of us going for long bike rides together or just hanging out in the house. But Maggie has Jenna and Timmy so tightly scheduled -- every day after school, even on weekends -- that trying to figure out where I fit in is like jumping onto a moving train.
"I also don't really have much desire to do some of the things Maggie had planned, like going to visit relatives or playing tourists in Washington, D.C. And I don't feel like spending hours in church, either, but that doesn't mean that I lost my faith. I'm exhausted -- mentally and physically. I really just want to hang out and chill.
"As far as the kids go, what's wrong with trying to instill a little discipline in Timmy and Jenna? It's important to teach them the value of hard work. Am I really expecting too much to ask them to make their beds and keep the bathroom neat and clean? And it bugs me that our house looks like a giant toy store. I was in a country so poor that the children were ecstatic to play with a 10-cent Frisbee every day because that's all they had. My kids have flat-screen TVs, video games, and Nintendo Wiis. Some days I feel like junking it all and making them sleep on a simple mat to get a taste of what it's like in other parts of the world.
"I'll admit -- it was pretty traumatic being in Afghanistan. You're in danger all the time and it's scary. I wish I could talk to Maggie about stuff, but things are so tense between us that I just don't feel like discussing anything with her. I'm realizing now, though, that it feels good to get this off my chest. I hope my wife and I can figure out a way to talk to each other again."

Youk, Sox stall on long-term deal
Report says two sides more likely to forge a one-year agreement
BOSTON -- The Red Sox have discussed signing Kevin Youkilis to a long-term contract. But it doesn't appear that the two parties will reach an agreement before the start of the 2009 season.
"We've had some initial conversations" toward a long-term contract, Youkilis' agent, Joe Bick, told The Boston Globe. "It doesn't look promising."
Youkilis, who isn't eligible for free agency until after the 2010 season, will now have his salary determined via arbitration or if the two sides agree beforehand on a one-year contract. He signed a one-year, $3 million contract before the start of last season.
"We're going to concentrate our efforts from this point forward on getting a one-year deal done, whether it's negotiated or otherwise," Bick told The Globe. "That's where we stand going forward."
According to this report, Youkilis has accepted an invitation to play for Team USA in the upcoming World Baseball Classic. The 29-year-old corner infielder established career highs in batting average (.312), homers (29) and RBIs (115) in 2008. The production earned him a third-place finish in balloting for the American League Most Valuable Player Award.

I love beauty (obvi). And I love to read (I'm a total book nerd). So you won't need much explanation when I say that I get super-psyched about beauty books.
Yep, even though beauty blogs—like this one you're reading right here!—are amazing at providing instant intel on the latest and greatest, there's something about the tactile experience of sitting down and cracking open a book that makes me feel all warm 'n fuzzy. I love knowing they're there and that I can flip through their pages at any time for help. (See? Nerd.)
From makeup how-to's to face mask recipes to which vitamins to take for glowing skin, I've found it all in my growing collection. If you happen to be literary keener like me—or if you're just looking for some new tips—here are five of my favourite reads.
Beauty: Pure + Simple by Kristen Ma
This book is amaze. The author is Kristen Ma, co-owner of the Toronto spa chain Pure + Simple (which also sells fantastic natural products like this sunscreen and this mineral powder). Michelle also profiled Kristen here. In this book, she gives us tons of useful information about Ayurveda, a 5,000-year-old Indian system of traditional medicine, and how it relates to our health and beauty. She once suffered from acne and only until she started learning about holistic treatments and addressing the underlying causes of her symptoms did she experience relief. If you want the goods on natural beauty care, this is your book!

Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual: For Everyone from Beginner to Pro by Bobbi Brown
I heart Bobbi Brown, and this beautiful book is one of my faves because it separates info into "Basics" and "Artistry" (très helpful for novices like moi). The Basics section covers loads of info, from tools, skincare and lip tips to a 10-step guide to achieving perfect makeup. There's also an amazing skincare glossary and a section on how to choose the right foundation and blush (Eagle offenders may want to pay special attention).

Organic Body Care Recipes: 175 Homemade Herbal Formulas for Glowing Skin & a Vibrant Self by Stephanie Tourles
Stephanie Tourles is a licensed esthetician, herbalist and aromatherapist, and I'm totally obsessed with all of her fab natural recipes. Cleansers, toners, serums, body oils, bath soaks and scrubs—this book's got it all. I received it as a Christmas present a few years ago, and since then have gone nuts whipping up my own body butters and hair rinses (and you know I love me some DIY face masks).

Best in Beauty: An Ultimate Guide to Makeup and Skincare Techniques, Tools and Products by Riku Campo
This book came out last summer and I simply couldn't resist it. The cover drew me in and the gorgeous layout and photography inside got me hooked. Riku Campo is an international makeup artist and hairstylist and divulges all the best makeup, techniques and tools—plus, he shares a fab hangover cure to keep you looking fresh the morning after (not that you or I would ever need such a thing).
Buy it now: $21.41 at Amazon.ca
Eat, Drink and Be Gorgeous: A Nutritionist's Guide to Living Well While Living it Up by Esther Blum
OMG. Who doesn't want to "live well while living it up?!" I have so many bookmarks and dog-eared pages in this book, from sections on "eating gorgeous" to "drinking gorgeous" (for example, instead of a Cosmo, try a Pomegranate martini). There are also chapters devoted to banishing PMS and low energy, including an awesome Q&A section. This little book is indispensable!

All False statements involving Hillary Clinton
The number of jobs created and people lifted out of poverty during Bill Clinton's presidency was "a hundred times" what it was under President Ronald Reagan.
McCain "still thinks it's okay when women don't earn equal pay for equal work."
"If you are driving on average in America this summer, you'll save — according to Department of Energy figures — about $70."
"I actually started criticizing the war in Iraq before (Obama) did."
Obama "only wants your children to have health insurance."
Says the difference between her and Barack Obama is "about 35 years of experience."
"So that 2005 energy bill was a big step backwards on the path to clean, renewable energy. That's why I voted against it."
"It's just outrageous that under President Bush, the National Institutes of Health have been basically decreased in funding."
English "is our national language...if it becomes official, that means in a place like New York City you can't print ballots in any other language."

Claim Congress Was Briefed on NSA
The Hill
Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-OR) on Friday disputed a claim President Obama made at a press conference only moments earlier, when the president said that every member of Congress had been briefed on the National Security Agency's (NSA) domestic phone surveillance program.
Merkley said only select members of the House and Senate Intelligence Committees had been briefed on the program, and that he was only aware of it because he obtained "special permission" to review the pertinent documents after hearing about it second-hand.
"I knew about the program because I specifically sought it out," Merkley said on MSNBC. "It's not something that's briefed outside the Intelligence Committee. I had to get special permission to find out about the program. It raised concerns for me...When I saw what was being done, I felt it was so out of sync with the plain language of the law and that it merited full public examination, and that's why I called for the declassification."
At a press conference on Friday, Obama said that every member of Congress had been briefed on the phone monitoring program. The president argued that the policy, which was implemented in 2007, struck the "right balance" between privacy and national security, and that it had been helpful in thwarting terrorist attacks.
Obama also noted that federal judges had to sign off on the data gathering requests, which did not encompass the content of phone calls, but only the phone numbers.
But Merkley on Friday blasted the administration's handling of the program, saying it had ignored requests from Congress to explain the NSA's domestic surveillance actions, and that it was implementing the program in a way that did not follow the "standard of the law."
Merkley argued that "plain language of the law" said that the NSA should only be allowed to collect phone data that related to an open investigation, but that the agency was using a "broad vacuum" to sweep up data from ordinary Americans.
"The administration hasn't listened at all," Merkley said. "We've asked for the rulings of the FISA court – the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act court – about how it interprets the laws Congress passes to be declassified so we can have a conversation with the American people about that."
"For example, the question is -- how is scooping up your cellphone data, which tracks where you are, my cellphone data, related to an investigation?" he asked. "That's the plain language of the law -- related to an investigation. Well, certainly anyone would hear that and think that's a certain hurdle that has to be met. That there's a crime or a potential crime or a potential national security threat that justifies scooping up your information and my information. Clearly the administration has not followed what an ordinary person would consider to be the standard of the law here, and has not been willing to release the opinion of the FISA court in how they're interpreting that language, despite repeated requests from Congress to do so."
Revelations that the NSA seized millions of Americans' phone records has pit the White House against civil liberties activists on the political left.
Many lawmakers knew of the practice, which had been going on privately since 2007, and defended it as a critical tool in the war on terror. But Merkley and his Democrat colleague from Oregon, Sen. Ron Wyden, have joined with some on the right, including Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), in denouncing the measures as riding "roughshod over liberty."
The scope of the controversy broadened on Friday after the administration acknowledged a top-secret NSA program that collects information on Internet users, called PRISM, that taps directly into the servers of nine US Internet companies.
The White House insisted PRISM was only aimed at foreign terrorism suspects.

In a bit of surprising news today, UFC welterweight and BJJ ace, Carlos Eduardo Rocha, has been released by the promotion after his decision loss to Mike Pierce at UFC on FX 4. Rocha shared the news and his frustrations about the Pierce fight to Tatame:
I went there to fight MMA and he wants to win by points. There were 15 minutes of pure stalling This is bullshit. And UFC fires me after a fight where the guy just stood there stalling. I had good performances and even so I was cut off. I didn't expect this.
Wasn't he the one who said he'd fight any Brazilian because it's an easy fight? I thought he could come for me but he didn't. He didn't attack me on the clinch, he didn't hit me nor let me hit him. That's not MMA.
There was one promotion (that made him an offer), but the guy didn't wanna fight me. Now let's move on, keep my head up. I never give up. I know I'll get better next time so I can have another chance in the UFC.
Rocha was 1-2 in his UFC career, debuting with a quick kneebar submission against Kris McCray, and then dropping a spirited decision to Jake Ellenberger, before the loss to Pierce last weekend. Those two decision losses were the only losses of his 11-fight career.

I love it when...
you have an idea and then when you try to actually make it, it actually works! I bought these beautiful candle holders last week. They were $14.99 each (I bought two ). I also bought some aviation tin snips and carefully cut a hole in the bottom of each and tiny snips in the top to feed wires through so that they could be lamps. I bought these lamp cords, fed them through and hung them from the ceiling one on each side of our bed. They are hanging there now and we love them. The cords have switches on them so you just have to reach over and switch them on and off. I love the way they look and ,as I have zero electrical skills, they were nice and easy! I need to hang curtains and do a few other things and then I will put a photo of them in action. I don't even think you would really need to cut the hole in the bottom as there is a lot of decorative holes for the light to come through. And I love the color!

The former NBA star with the Utah Jazz, and a player nicknamed "Dr. Dunkenstein" in his heyday with Louisville's Cardinals back in the late 1970s and early 1980s, spoke on the importance of today's college athletes embracing the opportunity to use basketball as a means to get their education and make business connections that will last a lifetime. Griffith - who led Louisville to the 1980 NCAA national championship with a finals win over UCLA, also advised the Elite Eight teams, players and coaches to fully soak in the historic aspect of getting to play in the 20,000-seat Freedom Hall. It hosted six NCAA Division I Final Fours in its heyday - tournaments won by the likes of legendary coaches Adolph Rupp (Kentucky) and John Wooden (UCLA) and players like former Bruins star Lew Alcindor (later, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) who walked away with national titles on the same floor. "This will be an experience you will never forget in your lifetime," Griffith said. The Panthers have a busy Wednesday in store, including an appearance at a local school in the morning, a press conference for the head coaches of all eight teams in the afternoon and their practice time from 5 to 6 p.m. at Freedom Hall, which is open to the public. Tickets for the Elite Eight are $15 for reserved seats and $10 for general admission for each session. With two games - Metro State vs. Franklin Pierce and West Liberty vs. Winona State - in Thursday's noon (EST) session, and the evening session starting with Western Washington vs. Florida Southern at 6 before the Panthers take the floor. The games will be streamed live, free of charge, at www.ncaa.com. Saturday's semifinals at Freedom Hall are set for noon (EST) and 2:30 p.m., with Drury slated to play the second semifinal should the Panthers defeat USC-Aiken. Saturday's two survivors will advance to the NCAA-II national championship game on Sunday, April 7 at Philips Arena in Atlanta, Ga. (4 p.m. EST tipoff).

The Dwight Howard situation remains as confusing as ever as we approach Thursday's NBA trade deadline. Thus far, the Magic have resisted trade offers, choosing instead to make a last-ditch attempt to find Howard some help. That effort will continue until 24 hours before the trade deadline, according to ESPN's Marc Stein and Chris Broussard.
The Orlando Magic's strategy for the moment on Dwight Howard, according to sources close to the process, calls for spending the next 48 hours or so making one last hard push to acquire the sort of difference-maker that would encourage Howard to commit his long-term future to the team that drafted him in 2004.
If that doesn't happen, the Magic will evaluate all their trade proposals and decide what course of action is best. Stein and Broussard are also reporting that Magic owner Rich DeVos still hopes to convince Howard to stay in Orlando. In fact, the Magic may allow Howard to pick his next coach and general manager to help convince him to stay, according to the report.
One source close to the situation told ESPN The Magazine's Ric Bucher that the Magic have promised Howard that they will add a quality player before Thursday's deadline and that Howard can decide the fate of both GM Otis Smith and coach Stan Van Gundy at the end of the season if he signs an extension.
All this should make for a wild ride before Thursday's deadline.

Crony Capitalism: From Wall Street to K Street
Wall Street Cronies
This is where the high-level action is. I'm just starting to round up stories, but here's one on Treasury Sect. Paulson (under Bush) going to talk with top investment bankers, and giving them insider information on government policy.
K-Street Cronies
About $3,500 million per year is spent buying government favors — mostly on K Street, Washington DC, mainly for business. That's the definition of crony capitalism. Want to know how that works? You've got to see this amazing interview with Jack Arbamoff ("I only owned 100 Congressman") — he's now out of prison.
The Koch Brothers
What if one (or two) of America's super-rich decided just buy itself a political party? That's how truly serious crony capitalism works, like under Putin in Russia. But what would that cost? The last presidential race cost only about a billion—for both parties. So, about 3% of the Koch brother's wealth. But their doing it far cheaper than that. To follow the election you need to know how.
Elections Inc. — The Supreme Court vs. Democracy
On January 21, 2010, the Supreme Court overturned the Bipartisan Election Reform (McCain-Feingold) Act, and allowed corporations and unions to make unlimited contributions to influence elections. In June 2011, Charles Koch, quoting Saddam Hussein, declared the 2012 presidential election would be the "mother of all wars." What's the connection?
Why Fox = Wall Street
Fox News cites the Wall Street Journal far more than all other papers put together. Their politics is identical. What don't you know about the Wall-Street Media?
Occupy Wall Street
Facing hard times and an out-of-touch, tea-party Congress, the country was ripe for an anti-greed movement, and who better to target than the fat cats that caused the mess, got bailed out and thumbed their noses at us. Occupy Wall Street got the country talking about the real problem instead of the tea-party's manufactured debt crisis. But OWS needs to focus—it needs a "cause," if it wants to make a significant change. Luckily, the pieces of this puzzle fit together.

Mike McCune catches up with NESN Baseball analyst Jerry Remy Tuesday to talk about the moves, or lack there of, at the trade Deadline. Boston made two minor moves acquiring right-handed knuckleballer Steven Wright from the Cleveland Indians for first baseman Lars Anderson. The Sox also traded outfielder Scott Podsednik and right-hander Matt Albers to the Arizona Diamondbacks for left-hander Craig Breslow.
Despite rumors and reports, troubled Sox starter Josh Beckett was not traded Tuesday and made his scheduled start against the Tigers. A start he left in the third inning with a back spasm.

To-Do Tonight: Bartending, boom-bap and a few other things
We're late in the game on this Tuesday afternoon, so it's a good thing we already told you about the Bartender Challenge tonight at Palomino's. That seems like where a big chunk of the young professional crowd will be this evening. (And I bet many young and not-so-young professionals will also be at the Il Divo concert at Save Mart Center).
After bartender challenge, you might want to consider hopping over to indie night at Starline, getting some boom-bap over at Babylon or jamming at World Sports Cafe's Reggae Daze.

While watching the new intro video for this season, I wondered whether Colt should/would have his number placed amongst the untouchables.
The unlikely star from tiny Tuscola certainly has became a favorite with all Longhorns. Seemingly daily his legend grows. He is a kid you would love for your daughters to date and for your sons to emulate. He says all of the right things, he makes all the right steps, he doesn't shy away from being the face of
one of the most prominent collegiate teams in the nation, and he has time to visit children in the hospital. Even the enemy likes him. When Superman was going for the corner, few thought the transition would be as seamless as it was. But the kid smiled, accepted the challenge, and worked his way into the starting job.
He's no slouch with a football in his hands either. His stats are
impeccable record breaking. He's an obvious front runner for the Heisman trophy and repeat winner of the Walter Camp award. He leads his offense on the field with the command of a general, he backs his defense with unwavering support.
So the question is, has Colt done enough to retire #12 for good? Does he have to win the BCS Championship to be considered for the honor? He qualifies using the old standards of having to have won a player of the year award. But, has he done enough to be enshrined with Bobby Layne's #22, Tommy Nobis's #60, Earl's #20, Ricky's #34, and VY's #10?

Roman life at Ilkley holiday club
3:04pm Friday 25th April 2014 in Local news
Children got to meet a Roman soldier and find out about life in the Roman army at Artyology Club, a new holiday venture launched by two Ilkley friends.
David Bartlett, of the Friends of the Manor House, came along dressed in Roman armour and was one of the highlights of the two-day event held at the Nell Bank Centre, Denton Road, Ilkley.
Artyology Club, run by art teacher Lisbet Redman and archaeologist Pippa Rochford, was attended by more than 60 children from eight local primary schools who had booked onto the Viking and Roman days.
The seven to 11-year-olds enjoyed crafting Viking shields, brooches, Roman mosaics and clay lamps as well as conducting their own archaeological excavations, digging up artefacts and making rubbings of the Roman and Viking coins.
They also got to play in the Nell Bank Adventure Playground.
The event organisers say Artyology is a new concept combining both art and archaeology into one course.
They wanted to provide something that was both fun and educational for children to do in the holidays, and felt Nell Bank was the perfect venue.
It is hoped that Artyology Club will be running more sessions at Nell Bank during holiday periods.

Okay, first, I'd prefer to trade with Cleveland. Since that may not be what the Browns have in mind, I'll try this trade with Miami--getting their 1st, second, 4th and 5th in 2012 and their 1st (or even their #2) and 3rd in 2013. This draft is rich in CB prospects and I think there will be an excellent athlete available in round 4 or 5.
I really want their 3rd along with a 5th, but I would feel like I stole something.
#1 Reiff OT Iowa (upgrade at OT)
#2A Jeffries WR S.Car. or Sanu WR Rutgers (best WR avail.)
#2B R. Lewis OLB Oklahoma (absolute stud at SOLB)
#3 K. Short DT Purdue (solid Big 10 DT upgrade)
#4A I. Pead RB Cincinnatti (in the mold of L. McCoy or R. Rice--love Big East speed backs!)
#4B C. Heyward CB Vanderbilt (6 int. last 2 years vs. SEC WR corp.)
#5 J. Fuller WR Texas A&M (Amazing catch circle, muscle strains)
#6 W. Guy SS Kentucky (look at his tackle numbers in the SEC)
#7 J. Demps RB/KR (Unbelievable football speed, limited touches)

UNT's CyberCemetery will preserve sites from the
Bush administration that are no longer in use, adding
them to the government-related web sites it already
houses for instant access to the now-historical material.
Insider | February 2009 Issue |
Subscribe Unsubscribe
From a UNT News Service Press Release
UNT hired an official with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to lead its environmental efforts and oversee the newly established Office of Sustainability.
Todd Spinks began the new position Feb. 16.
"UNT has been moving forward quite progressively and aggressively toward becoming a green university," Spinks says. "The Office of Sustainability will continue to promote environmentally sustainable practices in everything the university does by encouraging a collaborative spirit within the UNT family to realize the power of our ideas."
Spinks, a UNT alum, has served as the special projects coordinator for the EPA since July 2007. Before that, he was the co-director of UNT's International Studies major. Spinks has an extensive background in furthering groundbreaking, interdisciplinary efforts related to protecting human health and the environment.
In his new role, Spinks will work closely with UNT's Sustainability Council, comprised of faculty, staff and students. The new office will focus on four major areas pertaining to sustainability: research, university operations, outreach and curriculum development.
Spinks' hire continues UNT's commitment to sustainability:
"UNT has clearly pulled into the lead for Texas universities' sustainability programs with our hiring of one of the EPA's leaders," says Sam Atkinson, chair of the Sustainability Council. "At UNT, we mean green."
Wendy K. Wilkins, UNT provost and vice president of academic affairs, says Spinks' past job experiences have prepared him well for the task at UNT.
"Todd is a highly motivated leader with experience in strategic program development and trans-organizational collaboration. As the special projects coordinator for the Environmental Protection Agency, he collaborated with numerous governmental agencies, academic institutions, American Indian tribes and the media to develop projects emphasizing environmental sustainability activities and ethics," Wilkins says. "His experiences with the EPA, combined with his enthusiasm for UNT, make him an excellent candidate to oversee UNT's new Office of Sustainability."
Christy Crutsinger, faculty assistant to the provost and chair of the search committee, says Spinks will help take UNT to the next level in its efforts to be a green campus.
"We are thrilled to have Todd join our team as he provides the necessary leadership for transforming UNT into a sustainable campus," says Crutsinger, also an associate dean in the School of Merchandising and Hospitality Management.

Padres extend club's radio deal for 2012
Former Major League pitcher Scanlan added to broadcast booth
SAN DIEGO -- Broadcasters Jerry Coleman, Ted Leitner and Andy Masur will return in 2012 as part of the Padres radio lineup, as the team announced on Wednesday that it has agreed to a one-year contract extension with Broadcast Company of the Americas.
In accordance with the agreement, all Spring Training games and all 162 regular season Padres games will be broadcast on XX 1090 AM in 2012.
In addition, the Padres have added a voice to the broadcast booth in former Major League pitcher Bob Scanlan, who will share color commentary duties with Coleman, with Leitner and Masur handling the play-by-play duties.
"We've been missing the players' perspective and the insight to what's happening in the game," said Padres COO and team president Tom Garfinkel. "And with Bob's experience as a pitcher, he can bring that perspective to the fan."
Scanlan was 20-34 with a 4.63 ERA over nine seasons with six different teams. Scanlan had been a co-host of the Channel 4 Postgame show, providing analysis following games on what had been the team's flagship station for the last 15 seasons.
So, who will work with whom and when? That has yet to be determined, Garfinkel said.
"There will be more to follow on the specific schedule," he said.
Leitner will be entering his 33rd season in the Padres radio booth, while Masur will be heading into his sixth season.
Coleman, who in 2005 was honored by the National Baseball Hall of Fame with the Ford C. Frick Award for his broadcasting contributions, has been calling games since 1972 -- with the exception of 1980, when the team hired him to be the manager.
The first game to be broadcast will be the Padres annual charity game against the Mariners in Spring Training on March 4.
The first game of the regular season is set for April 5 against the Dodgers at Petco Park.
