Cubs take rain-shortened 5-1 win over Marlins
The Marlins couldn't get the big hit and then Mother Nature ended their night.
The Associated Press
The Marlins couldn't get the big hit and then Mother Nature ended their night.
Starlin Castro homered and the Chicago Cubs batted around in a four-run seventh inning to beat Miami 5-1 in a rain-shortened game Wednesday night.
The Marlins struck out 12 times and left nine men on base.
"That's what we doing the best: leaving people on base," Miami manager Ozzie Guillen said. "Every time we play good it's because we drive those guys (in). We take advantage. When we don't, we have the result we have tonight."
Heavy rain began falling with Miami batting in the top of the eighth and the teams never returned to the field. The game was called after a 1-hour, 17-minute delay.
Castro hit his eighth home run of the season off Marlins starter Josh Johnson (5-7) leading off the fourth. Jeff Baker highlighted a seventh-inning rally with a two-run, pinch-hit double with the bases loaded.
James Russell (3-0) pitched a scoreless seventh to earn the victory in relief of Jeff Samardzija, who struck out nine in five innings.
Jose Reyes homered for Miami and Emilio Bonifacio had three hits, falling a homer shy of the cycle.
The Marlins had won six straight against the Cubs and were looking for their third consecutive win.
Johnson retired nine of the first 10 batters he faced before Castro led off the fourth with a home run. Miami's big right-hander responded by striking out the next three.
Johnson was economical until trouble found him in the seventh. Alfonso Soriano singled to lead off and advanced to second on a wild pitch. He scored on Geovany Soto's chopper over the head of Hanley Ramirez. Darwin Barney followed with a single to chase Johnson.
"Things were rolling along, I was getting early contact, getting ahead for the most part," Johnson said. "But then you get a chopper and a bloop. Nothing you can really do about it."
Mike Dunn fared no better in relief, surrendering hits to the first two batters he faced, including Baker's double. David DeJesus' sacrifice fly capped the four-run inning.
Johnson was charged with four runs over 6 1-3 innings. He struck out five and walked one to continue an inconsistent season. He gave up seven earned runs in five June starts, but has allowed 14 runs in three starts in July.
By contrast, Samardzija was effective for a third consecutive outing, allowing one run over five innings.
Reyes ripped an 0-2 delivery over the wall in right field leading off the third to put the Marlins up 1-0. It was his fourth homer of the year.
Samardzija got out of a jam in the fifth after Bonifacio hit a leadoff triple. After Carlos Lee grounded out, Logan Morrison hit a grounder with the infield in, but Soto bobbled the throw on a botched rundown to put runners at second and third. Samardzija struck out Ramirez and got Greg Dobbs to ground out to end the threat.
Samardzija was lifted for a pinch-hitter in the fifth. He finished with nine strikeouts and two walks, scattering six hits.
"After that rundown, I kind of just took a second," Samardzija said. "That's what I was happy about, just taking my time and not rushing, making the pitches I needed to make."
Samardzija struggled in June, but has given up just five runs in 19 innings this month.
Guillen was again given a villain's welcome by the home crowd in his return to Chicago. After visiting the mound to remove Johnson in the seventh to a rain of boos, Guillen paused for a moment to banter with fans before disappearing into the visitor's dugout.
The Marlins still had five outs to work with when the rain came, but Guillen thought the umpires made the right call.
"I think they did the right thing not to keep us here until 1 o'clock in the morning and bang we have to be back here in the morning," he said.
NOTES: The Marlins activated RHP Edward Monica (broken toe) from the 15-day DL. RHP Ryan Webb was optioned to Triple-A New Orleans. ... Cubs OF Jorge Solar will make his minor league debut on Thursday as a DH in the rookie league in Arizona, according to GM Theo Epstein. The 20-year-old Cuban prospect signed a 9-year, $30 million contract with Chicago on June 30.

Miami tightens sideline access at home
CORAL GABLES, Fla. -- Boosters will no longer be permitted on the Miami sideline during home football games, a change that comes after a former donor who had field access at times sparked an NCAA investigation by claiming he provided 72 players and Hurricane recruits extra benefits over an eight-year span.
The moves go into effect starting with Saturday's home opener against No. 17 Ohio State. The Associated Press obtained a copy of the updated policy Monday.
Some of the changes are sweeping, including a policy that anyone without a game-day operations purpose -- even administrators, trustees and deans -- will no longer be able to receive field-access passes. Some university employees will be permitted to escort guests such as donors and potential donors onto the field during pregame warmups, but they must stay in a designated area on the visiting sideline and leave shortly before kickoff.
ACC Blog
ESPN.com's Heather Dinich and Andrea Adelson write about all things ACC in the conference blog.
The former booster, convicted Ponzi scheme architect Nevin Shapiro, was one of many donors who had sideline access in recent years. Television cameras even captured Shapiro, in a Miami jersey, standing on the field near the team's tunnel as it emerged onto the field for a game at the now-demolished Orange Bowl. Shapiro ran into an end zone as well that night, having to be quickly ushered back to the sideline by a security guard.
A scene like that shouldn't happen under Miami's tighter policy.
Recruits and their guests, usually parents, will still be allowed on the field before games, though they will also need to be accompanied by an authorized university employee and must leave the field 22 minutes before kickoff.
In certain situations, former Miami football players will be credentialed to have access on the Hurricanes' side of the field, but would not be allowed in the team's bench area.
The university said that president Donna Shalala and athletic director Shawn Eichorst would both have to approve any exceptions to the new policy.
A number of NFL teams, including the Miami Dolphins -- who play in the same stadium where the Hurricanes are a tenant -- allow fans and some invited guest field-level views of games. Hundreds were on the Dolphins' side of the field for their opener against New England on Monday night, but were behind a temporary wall and positioned well away from Miami players and staff.

By Mike Myatt, Chief Strategy Officer, N2growth
I read a perceptive post today entitled: "Blogging Hits a Crossroads" by Jason Lee Miller. The premise of his piece is that the landscape of the Blogosphere is changing radically, and that as such many "A-Listers" have either quit, or are contemplating giving-up their blogging endeavors. Miller's post is quick to point out that blogging is competitive, requires a great investment of time, subjects the blogger to the ire of those who have dissenting opinions, and that it is becoming increasingly difficult to make money blogging. I concur with all of the aforementioned assertions, but must admit that I am far from quitting…In today's post I'll add a few thoughts to those shared by Mr. Miller.
What makes the Blogosphere interesting is also precisely what makes it so annoying at times…the low barrier to entry. The simple fact is that anyone can blog, which explains why many estimates place the number of blogs on the Internet at well over 150 million. The noise in this space is simply deafening…As Miller so aptly states in his post, "The good stuff lasts, the chaff separates from the wheat, the cream rises to the top, all that." The dropping-off of a few "A-Listers" is of little consequence to me, or frankly to anyone else. The litmus test for blogging is, and always will be, does your blog add value, does it make a difference, and do people benefit from the opinions espoused?
Bloggers will continue to come and go…while some will be missed, many will not. Nevertheless the bottom line is this…blogs are not a tool for those looking to get rich quickly (that train left the station a long time ago), nor will they take an author of the inane and measurably change their world for the better. What blogs do offer is a viable and robust platform to be leveraged by those that have a message worthy of communicating. Blogs can clearly be accretive, and will continue to add brand equity to those companies and individuals who grasp the value of social media.
For those of you who are interested in more thoughts on this topic I would suggest reading two previous posts: To Blog or Not to Blog, and Why N2growth Blogs.

Felix Hernandez and Seattle agree on new contractBy JOSE M. ROMERO
The Associated Press | February 13,2013AP Fiel Photo
Seattle pitcher Felix Hernandez reacts after throwing a perfect game against the Tampa Rays last season.PEORIA, Ariz. Felix Hernandez and Seattle reached agreement Tuesday on a contract that is expected to make the Mariners ace the highest-paid pitcher in baseball.
I think its a great thing for the Seattle Mariners, Seattle general manager Jack Zduriencik said. Its a great thing for Felix Hernandez, and looking forward to this guy being here for a very long time, obviously.
Hernandezs deal is expected to be for $175 million over seven years. Terms of the contract were not released by the team. Hernandez and Zduriencik will hold a news conference in Seattle on Wednesday afternoon where Hernandez is expected to sign the contract.
Earlier Tuesday, Zduriencik said the sides were having significant talks to try to finalize a new contract for the three-time All-Star and 2010 AL Cy Young Award winner. Zduriencik said then that a deal of that magnitude in years and dollars, takes time to work things out.
It didnt take too long. By the afternoon, Hernandezs deal was done and Seattle had its ace locked up through the 2019 season.
The new contract will encompass the final two years of his current deal that is scheduled to pay Hernandez $40.5 million in 2013 and 2014. Hell receive $134.5 million over the additional five years.
Hernandezs total dollars would top CC Sabathias original $161 million, seven-year contract with the New York Yankees and his $25 million average would surpass Zack Greinkes $24.5 million under his new contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers and tie him for the second-highest in baseball with Josh Hamilton and Ryan Howard behind Alex Rodriguez ($27.5 million). Hernandezs new money would average $26.9 million over five years.
With Hernandez off the market, Detroits Justin Verlander and the Dodgers Clayton Kershaw become the most attractive pitchers eligible for free agency after the 2014 season. Tampa Bays David Price is eligible after the 2015 season.
Hernandez, who will turn 27 on April 8, is 98-76 with a 3.22 ERA in eight seasons with the Mariners. He won a career-high 19 games in 2009 when he finished second in the Cy Young voting then won the award a year later when he went just 13-12 but had a 2.27 ERA and 232 strikeouts.
Hernandez appeared to be making another Cy Young push last year before going 0-4 in his last six starts, which left him at 13-9 with 223 strikeouts.
His career record would be even better if he didnt play with one of baseballs worst offenses. Seattle had the lowest batting average in the major leagues in each of the last three seasons. Hernandez has taken 10 losses during that span when hes given up two earned runs or less.
For his career, Hernandez has allowed two earned runs or less in 141 of 238 starts, but the team is only 99-42 in those games due to the offensive problems.MORE IN Wire SportsPITTSBURGH LeGarrette Blounts early exit Monday night cost the volatile running back his job.

Scanstrut unveils versatile new Scanpod models at Boot Düsseldorf Hall 11 Stand B51.
21 January 2013 - Leading electronics expert, Scanstrut Ltd, will be unveiling its latest Scanpod models at this year's Boot Düsseldorf – Hall 11, Stand B51. The new models will provide versatile mounting options for electronic instruments on any rail, anywhere, onboard any boat.
Aimed at boat builders and marine enthusiasts, the Scanpod range has gained an enviable reputation for exceptional quality and ease of installation for chartplotters, radar displays, instruments and autopilot controls. The Scanpods provide watertight, reliable enclosures to protect expensive marine electronics and allow displays to be mounted for optimal viewing.
Current sailboat designs often have very open cockpits with few options for installing retro-fit instruments. The new Scanpod models allow for smaller instruments and chartplotters to be mounted anywhere, so long as there is a suitably sized rail.
The new Helm Pod Rail Mount provides the perfect solution for fitting a chartplotter to the upright or top of standard rails with the added benefit of fitting at the top of a curved rail. Its smart design allows for hidden cable routing into the rail itself. Once fitted, the pod can be rotated to change the viewing angle.
The Arm Mount extends the pod away from narrow or crowded rails for better viewing. A clever internal adjustment system means the pod is always at the right angle despite the shape of the rail. The pod can also be rotated to change the viewing angle. All cables are routed internally, and can be accessed easily via a removable cover.
Both the Helm Pod Rail Mount and Arm Mount have been designed to fit the Scanpod 1i single instrument pod and the Scanpod 7" Compact Helm Pod.
The new Scanpod models have been manufactured using a unique metal replacement plastic. The material allows for all the design creativity of moulded parts, but with the strength of stainless steel. This process also ensures that production costs are kept to a minimum allowing for reduced costs for the customer.

DeveloperWeek Hackathon Friday, February 1, 2013 kicks off the week where over 1,200 web, mobile, and software developers will converge in San Francisco for the first annual DeveloperWeek Conference February 1-7, 2013. Highlighting the conference schedule is a who's who of technology experts from Google, Microsoft, Oracle, Dun & Bradstreet, PayPal, Continuuity, New Relic, NuoDB, Adobe and over 100 more companies.
"DeveloperWeek 2013 is a one-week incubator for entrepreneurs, developers, and designers to meet, form development teams, attend technology sessions and workshops, demo new apps, and some will even come away from the week with an entirely new startup," said Geoff Domoracki, CEO of Data 2.0, the producer of DeveloperWeek. "Through our scholarship program, we've already pre-approved 20 developer teams with brand new app ideas ranging from mobile health apps and augmented reality technology to stock market analytics and the next big social network idea."
As developers have become the core members of every new tech company, DeveloperWeek aims to educate attendees on how to become developers, learn new technologies, and build applications. Unlike other technology events, DeveloperWeek combines a 3-day hackathon with over 350 registered attendees, a 3-day conference with over 200 speakers and 80 technology workshops and panel talks, a 1-day Prototype Day for developers to demo their new apps, and 8 additional networking events during the week-long festivities.
The DeveloperWeek Conference & Festival 2013 includes a hiring mixer, evening receptions, and several city-wide events where participants can network with the newest generation of tech enthusiasts. DeveloperWeek is sponsored in part by Dun & Bradstreet and Microsoft. Tickets are on sale online through February 5.

Pat Buchanan: Obama's moment — a deal with Iran
In his second term, Ronald Reagan had Iran-Contra, but also a treaty eliminating U.S. and Soviet missiles in Europe, his "tear-down-this-wall" moment in Berlin and his lead role in ending the Cold War.
Obama's second-term scandals — IRS, Benghazi, wiretapping The Associated Press and Fox — are in the low-kiloton range compared to the resignation of Nixon or the impeachment of Clinton.
Two opportunities beckon. First, the mirage — a Middle East peace. Essential to any treaty, however, is a withdrawal of Israeli "settlers" from the West Bank, a sharing of Jerusalem, Palestinian acceptance of Israel as a "Jewish state" and Arab repudiation of the "right of return."
Hence Obama's legacy hopes lie not in Israeli-Palestinian peace talks in Washington this week, but in what is happening in Iran — the inauguration of the president who replaces Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Yet the only way he can achieve these goals is to come to terms with Obama on Iran's nuclear program. And as he was once Iran's lead negotiator on that program, Rouhani knows exactly what is required.
Iran wants its rights under the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) — to peaceful nuclear research and nuclear power — recognized by the United States. And it wants U.S.-UN sanctions lifted.
As Reagan said, trust but verify.
Despite the hysteria about Iran's "mad dash" to an atom bomb, Tehran has never tested a bomb and never produced the 90-percent-enriched uranium needed for a bomb, and does not have sufficient 20-percent uranium to further enrich for a bomb test.
Moreover, Khamenei has declared nuclear weapons anti-Islamic, and U.S intelligence agencies have never retracted their declarations of 2007 and 2011 that Iran has made no decision to build a bomb.
That would be the crown jewel of Obama's second term.
Who would be against such a deal? Bibi and the War Party that wants Iran smashed, as we smashed Iraq, even if that means another trillion-dollar unnecessary war.
Pat Buchanan is a former Republican and Reform Party candidate for President, an adviser to two Presidents, a syndicated columnist based in Washington, D.C., and the author of "Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?"

A Farmington man is dead following a high-speed chase Wednesday afternoon.
The chase began at around 2 p.m. when police responded to a call of a man driving recklessly on the 3500 block of East Main Street.
The subject, identified by Farmington police as 26-year-old John Robert Marszalek, fled the scene, hitting an unmarked police car in the process. A chase pursued but was called off due to heavy traffic in the area.
Marszalek drove past the city limits but eventually drove back into Farmington at the intersection of 20th and Butler, where he hit another police car.
Officers attempted to take Marszalek into custody, at which point he started injuring himself. Officers shot Marszalek, and he was taken to San Juan Regional Medical Center. Marszalek later died from his injuries.
Police said multiple law enforcement agencies were involved at the scene and it is unsure who fired the shots at Marszalek.
The incident is currently under investigation.

"I believe CIM has fully prepared me for this next chapter in my life," Mr. Gary said. "Choosing CIM to study with Jeffrey Irvine was one of the best decisions I ever made. Looking back at how 'complete' my education was, top training is provided in so many facets of the music field so it becomes easy to find one's own interests and at the same time, remain a rounded and whole musician."
CIM was named a Top Fulbright Producer in 2011-2012. Previous CIM Fulbright recipients include:
- Julie Ann Link, bassoon (MM '11)
- Louis Chiappetta, composition (BM '11)
- Felix Ungar, viola (BM '07, MM '09)
- Danilla Strasfogel, violin (MM '03)
- Lee Hancock, piano (MM '04)
- Eliesha Nelson, viola (BM '95)
Established in 1946, The Fulbright U.S. Student Program aims to increase mutual understanding between people of the United States and the people of more than 150 countries that currently participate in the Fulbright Program. Scholarships are awarded to U.S. graduating seniors, graduate students, young professionals and artists selected through a national, merit-based competition for study and research abroad.
Sponsored by the Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, approximately 1,500 U.S. students and 3,000 foreign students receive Fulbright scholarships each year.

Ever since Jack was born, my idea of a romantic evening with my husband usually revolves around catching up on Lost episodes and downing a bottle of wine with our dog nestled between us. This is all the romance we can muster because we're just plain tired. We haven't had a good night's sleep in almost a year because Jack still wakes up several times a night to party in his crib. Let's face it- kids are cute and all...but they are kind of a romance buzzkill.
This is why I've come to realize that sometimes mom and dad need a night off. What better time to rekindle some romance than Valentine's Day? This is one of the only nights of the year that you can guilt-free ditch your kids. And The Brown Hotel has some amazing romance packages that can spice up a relationship.
Valentine's Day falls on a Sunday this year, so the Brown has plans to pamper their guests all weekend long. Stay at this historic hotel in downtown Louisville with one of their many Valentine packages that start at $175 for a one-night stay. There are even more luxurious packages that include roses, champagne and a 5 course dinner at one of their restaurants. You can view their Valentine's packages at www.brownhotel.com or call for a reservation at (502) 583-1234.

Brandon Sun - ONLINE EDITION
Home care hours extended in Brandon
Access to home care is no longer limited to weekdays in Brandon, with staff now available for extended hours seven days a week, Health Minister Erin Selby announced today.
"Manitoba has the best home care program in Canada, supporting wellness and independence, so seniors can live safely and independently in their homes for as long as possible," she said. "With this funding to support extended hours, we're making home care even better for seniors in Brandon by supporting patients being discharged from hospital in a more timely manner, which also frees up hospital beds for other patients who need them."
The additional supports will also enable the Home Care Program to better address new or urgent health concerns of current clients to help prevent hospitalization, the minister said, adding for those in acute care settings, timely assessments will help ensure support is in place so patients can go home as soon as possible.
Additional funding of $184,000 has been provided to Prairie Mountain Health Authority to support the staffing of evening and weekend home care throughout the Brandon area.
"Prairie Mountain Health is committed to meeting provincial priorities around improving wait times and the cancer patient journey, and access to needed inpatient beds in Brandon is critical to these achievements," said Prairie Mountain Health CEO Penny Gilson. "Enhancements to home care services not only facilitate this but, just as importantly, they allow more people to live safely in their homes where they want to be."
In 2011, Manitoba announced it was refreshing the Long Term Care/Aging in Place Strategy with enhancements to community-based services including the Home Care Program. More responsive home care on weekends and evenings is just one of several improvements in the Prairie Mountain Health region and across Manitoba, the minister said.
Other changes include increasing home care hours available to clients up to 55 hours per week from 50, adding resources in support of Self and Family Managed Care and specialized supports through home care and supporting innovative rehabilitation projects to enhance rehabilitation services in the region.
The Manitoba Home Care Program, established in its present form in September 1974, is the oldest comprehensive, provincewide, universal home care program in Canada. Home care is provided to Manitobans of all ages based on assessed need and taking into account other resources available to the individual including families, community resources and other programs.

jeepster! Shame on you! We have the best Home Care Programme in Canada and we have the best Home Care programme in MB here in Brandon! I have been in the front lines for many years as a Home Care Worker, and I tell you this is NOT a waste of your money. The City dropped the ball on Infrastructure, by not keeping the tax rate up, so they could garner votes. Our little band of Brothers and Sisters who go home to home to help those whose lives would be unbearable but for the help we give, has stood in the breach and has kept it affordable. It's comments such as these that really bring down our efforts. Be grateful for once that there is a Programme out there that will help you if you are in need of assistance, and with a quality and dedication that is rarely seen in other Health institutions in this city, older Doctors that are tired and are beyond caring and have lost their bed side manner, nurses who argue with patients and take abusive stances with them. The recovery rate of Home Care clients is well beyond that of those who are institutionalized. I for one have given the best years of my life to quality service in Home Care and I find your remark beyond offensive and ignorant... If you can't say nothing nice, don't say nothing at all.

This is ridiculous.
It has become so hard over the last 5 years to get any home care for my patients I have given up trying
So what is the new money going to do?
Hire yet another useless manager to say ,"there is no home care resources available"
on the weekends like they usually say during the week
Not that any doctors are actually working on the weekend to ask
Erin Selby previous job on "Breakfast TV " has prepared her to understand perhaps even fix our failing health system ..but likely not

Manitoba has the best homecare in the country? Of course we do the freaking ndp really SPEND our money on "programs" instead of infrastructure! Course they blame that on the feds but its all MY money so get your priorities straight!

I'm curious about the 'Cretaceous Cut'. Is the version they were supposed to release in theaters before the Fox execs got their hands on it?
The TV series was bad enough with Kenneth Branagh's annoying narration; having voices for the animals in this one is just astonishing and makes the BBC look REALLY bad.
The Wilson Bros
The Wilson Bros
Such a wasted potential. They almost ruined the whole movie by adding annoying voices for the animals. This movie could be so much better without relying on dino-talk. Whoever decided to make the dinos talk obviously hadn't learn anything from Disney's Dinosaur. At least Dinosaur has good voice-actors with non-annoying voices, not this one. A shame, I expected more from WWD franchise's theatrical feature.
That said, decent boxarts. The vistas on the standard DVD & BD covers are superior, but I prefer the Deluxe BD's with the title up above.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — The sight of UAB taking the field in Death Valley will bring back some bad memories for LSU fans.
The conventional wisdom, however, is that the ninth-ranked Tigers won't need long to eliminate any fears of history repeating itself.
According to odds makers, LSU (1-0) is supposed to open its home slate on Saturday night with a nearly five-touchdown margin of victory over the Blazers (0-1).
UAB, by contrast, will aim to make its second trip to Tiger Stadium more like the first. That was back in 2000, in the first month of current Alabama coach Nick Saban's first season at LSU. The Blazers kept it close, won 13-10 on a last-second field goal, then celebrated wildly as the stunned and dejected home crowd filed out.
LSU coach Les Miles was quick to mention that upset when asked about welcoming a seemingly overmatched opponent to Tiger Stadium. It could have been a little dig at Saban, but Miles seemed genuine in his praise for Blazers coach Garrick McGee, who was once the offensive coordinator of Arkansas teams that gave Miles and the Tigers their share of problems in the past.
"He will do some of the same things that he did at Arkansas. Certainly it appears that way on film," Miles said. "The advantage that he has — he has some awareness having played against us before. I'm sure he'll do a great job game planning, and I think that we can look forward to being challenged that way."
For their part, UAB's current players don't seem to buy into the awe factor of Death Valley. Perhaps it's because they know their school's record against mighty LSU is 1-0, giving them reason to believe that anything is possible.
"We treat it like any other game. We played South Carolina and Ohio State last year, so that doesn't really faze me and I don't think it fazes anybody else," Blazers linebacker Jake Ganus said. "We are just going to go out there and play the game of football like we know how."
Here are five things to know heading into UAB's visit to Tiger Stadium:
NON-CONFERENCE DOMINANCE: While UAB draws inspiration from its last triumph in Baton Rouge, more recent history appears decisively on the Tigers' side, thanks to LSU's 32-0 regular season record against non-conference opponents since Miles' arrival in 2005. In fact, LSU has not lost at home to a non-Southeastern Conference team since falling to the Blazers on Sept. 23, 2000.
BLAZING OFFENSE: Although UAB dropped its opener at Troy, 34-31, it showed promise on offense and in its return game. Receiver Jamarcus Nelson had 10 catches for 199 yards, as well as 168 yards on kickoff returns, including a 97-yard touchdown. Quarterback Austin Brown passed for 301 yards and three TDs, and running back Darrin Reaves rushed for 110 yards.
DEVELOPING DEFENSE: LSU entered the season with only three full-time starters returning on defense, but less experienced players who were plugged into more significant roles this season largely passed their first test in LSU's 37-27 victory over TCU in Dallas last weekend. TCU had only one sustained touchdown drive, and that included a roughing-the-passer penalty on a third-down incompletion. The Horned Frogs' other TDs came on a kickoff return and a 6-yard drive after LSU running back Alfred Blue's fumble. In all, TCU gained only 259 yards.
"That defense looked awfully physical to me, very fast to the ball," Miles said. "It will be the same style of defense that we've had for years."
FRESHMAN IMPACTS: LSU played eight true freshmen in its season opener and Miles said even more could play against UAB, including safety Ricky Jefferson, as well as defensive linemen Tayshaun Bower and Lewis Neal. Meanwhile, UAB freshman receiver Jamari Staples has already emerged as one of the Blazers' top threats, with six receptions for 103 yards and a TD last week.
"I know my role, and I know what coach McGee and my other coaches are expecting out of me," Staples said. "I am going to do my best to live up to it."
RUSHING ROTATION: Miles has declined to say whether last year's leading rusher, Jeremy Hill, will return from his disciplinary benching. He also said he was happy with the way three other backs — Blue, Terrence Magee and Kenny Hilliard — played last week and expects rotate all three again.
"It's important that you're fresh. It's important that guys can get yards after contact," Miles said. "We're not making any determination of who starts and who doesn't at this point."
NOV 21 Bobby Jindal is headed to Iowa again, the Des Moines Register reports here. The paper outlines what's going on with Bobby's non-campaign for president, and there's a lot of stuff here -- too bad none of it sounds like somebody running Louisiana. Hey, wasn't that the job he wanted?
NOV 21 The end of the term has come for the grand jury investigating a lucrative Medicaid contract and a former state health official's ties to the company that won it, the Advocate reports here, but that doesn't mean the investigation into this stinkiness is over. There are still some things to look into, the lead prosecutor says.
NOV 21 With the passage of two amendments to Louisiana's much-amended constitution (it has been amended almost 200 times now) higher education has an even bigger target on its collective back, columnist Jim Beam opines in this post. Higher ed used to share the spotlight with health care, but that has changed, he says.
NOV 21 Here's a weird one: The Louisiana Cannabis Industry Association has endorsed Bill Cassidy for the U.S. Senate. Apparently, Mary Landrieu said she wouldn't consider support of medical marijuana but Cassidy said he would, WWL reports here.
NOV 21 Solange Knowles, possibly best-known for assaulting her brother-in-law in an elevator while wearing an ugly dress after the Met Ball, got married in the Marigny Opera House this past weekend, the New York Times reports here. Knowles, who has a house in the Faubourg Marigny district and owns a boutique in the Quarter, married Alan Ferguson.
NOV 21 This post on the Fuel Fix blog outlines a $1.4 billion move announced this week by the Apache Corp. that includes the sale of assets in south Louisiana. The company's interests in more than 90,000 acres in south Louisiana are some of the assets being sold, the post reports.
NOV 21 One (possible) positive from Hurricane Katrina is a comprehensive zoning ordinance for New Orleans. Nine years later, we're getting closer to that being finalized, but the current version has some problems. Here's the latest in a series of posts on The Lens in which residents give their views of the draft; this one is more amusing than most.
NOV 21 The new NOLA smoking ordinance is going to harsh your (nicotine) buzz, man. This post on Gambit outlines the high (or low, as the case may be) points: it includes electronic cigarettes and hookahs in its bans; eliminates smoking within 25 feet of any building's public entrance and in any public space - or near any public space - operated by the city.
NOV 20 Here's an interesting article in the New York Times. The authors have picked one dish to represent each state in a Thanksgiving meal. Louisiana's dish? Shrimp stuffed mirlitons.
NOV 20 Politico reports here that Bobby Jindal won't be kept out of the presidential race by anyone else's candidacy. (If he's running, which he's not, 'cause he's not done prayin' on it) So he's not interested in who is running, or what the polls say, or how much money he's got? K.
NOV 20 NOLA Defender's Tiny Daiquiri has a little fun with Bobby Jindal's Meet the Press appearance in this post. Bobby is still prayin' on whether or not he'll run for the job he's been running for over the past three years, Tiny says.
