NBA Trades 2014: Jeremy Lin Makes Rockets 'Attractive' Team For Kevin Love
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Lou Ramon Aguila | May 23, 2014 9:18 AM EST
The Houston Rockets are expected to explore all trade possibilities for Jeremy Lin this summer, but keeping him in fold for another season seems to be the most ideal decision, especially if they are going to pursue their plan in trading for All-Star power forward Kevin Love.
James Harden and Jeremy Lin will look to lead the Houston Rockets past the Oklahoma City Thunder
According to Chris Baldwin of Culture Map Houston, Lin should stay put with the Rockets because he's the perfect lure to get the 25-year old Love, who asked the Minnesota Timberwolves to trade him or lose him in the summer of 2015.
Lin, who averaged 12 points and 4 dimes per game in a bench role for the Rockets, could be used as lure for the Rockets in their attempt to nab the double-double power forward.
Despite his struggles to put up big numbers in a star-powered Rockets offense, Lin's ability to distribute the ball and make plays should be highlighted in their pitch. Baldwin called this the Jeremy Lin factor.
"But if Morey who lusts after Love is truly committed to convincing the Minnesota Timberwolves All-Star that he needs to push for the Houston Rockets as his destination in a trade, he needs to highlight the Jeremy Lin factor."
Baldwin stressed that it would be hard to imagine Love joining a team that already have a volume shooter like James Harden and a ball-demanding center in Dwight Howard. The analyst added that Love can only thrive with the Rockets, if Lin stays and gets more freedom to orchestrate plays.
"Morey already has a point guard capable of making Kevin Love very happy on his roster. He just needs to empower Jeremy Lin," Baldwin stated in his article.
"A Rockets offense with Love, Harden, Howard and a true point guard - one where Lin has the ball in his hands, making sure everyone gets their touches - would be deadly. It'd also likely eliminate any concerns Love harbors about being reduced to just another stand-up shooter in Morey World. Lin could guarantee that all of Love's skills are put to great use."
With $15 million salary kicking in for the last year of his three-year deal, the 25-year old Lin appears to be a leading candidate for trade. However, there's no way the Love experiment are going to click without the most important recipe. And that's a true playmaker. Lin apparently brings that to the table, making him the most crucial asset the Rockets possess right now.

Talent pool: Richard Hammond driving in Yas Waterworld in Abu Dhabi. (BBC AMERICA)
It's all over but the clowning. Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May got together on the last studio shoot of Season 21 to reflect on this series' highlights.
"I think this series has gone down jolly well," Clarkson said, adding that Chernobyl was the most amazing place he'd ever visited—and that the McLaren P1 the most amazing car he'd ever driven.
Top Gear also released another behind-the-scenes look at the two-part season finale, the Burma special. In the early days of the automobile, people were said to have yelled at passing motorists: "Get a horse." Well, our boys took that advice in Burma, with decidedly mixed results.
Here's the horse scene itself, from the Burma episode:
The boys had more success with their trucks, excuse us, lorries:
• A newspaper in Central Somerset in the U.K. is trying to sell a used car to Top Gear. A used, flooded, waterlogged car. It's not just any car, however. This particular Seat Toledo, which became trapped in rising floodwaters when its owner was driving home last Christmas Eve, has become a symbol of a area's battle with severe weather.
"This car has become the Excalibur in the Lake of Somerset," writes the Central Somerset Gazette in a plea to Top Gear. "Of all the footage shot, one image became a constant: this flooded Seat Toledo gently bobbing below the surface of the water."
Holy Toledo! (Central Somerset Gazette/YouTube)
The car's owner had the idea of salvaging and auctioning off the 15-year-old car that he bought for £600 ($997) two years ago to raise money for relief efforts. When it was put on eBay, it fetched a £101,100 ($167,882) bid. Everyone was ecstatic—until it was discovered that the offer was a hoax, placed by a teenager as a prank.
That's when Bede MacGowan, editor of the Somerset Gazette, thought that Top Gear could help out. MacGowan wrote an open letter to the car show, which began: "Car fanatics that you are, I thought I'd highlight something special happening down here in Somerset that would help a lot of people, but is in danger of being wrecked by idiots." He wrote that when the bidding reached such high levels some people at the time thought Top Gear had already been involved.
"For that kind of price tag, everyone interested in the car suspected team Top Gear were behind it," wrote MacGowan. "Was May adding in some water protection and air supply before The Stig drove it into a lake?"
But once they found out that the teenager's prank bid put the auction in limbo, MacGowan suggested to Top Gear that it would be the perfect time to step in: "It would be heartening to think that eBay's loss would be a gain both for you and for charity," he wrote.
• "I don't ever make jokes about women drivers," Richard Hammond told the Radio Times. Half of Top Gear's audience is female, he points out and adds a personal anecdote to support his position: "I have always thought my wife is a far better driver than me."
Hammond discussed the idea of celebrity with the magazine. Often, he said, "overweight van drivers" point and make fun of "how short I am." But he says he just thinks: "I can't do much about that, but you're still fat."
He went on: "Still, it is gratifying sometimes to be recognized and to know that we make TV that people are watching. But I am still surprised when I talk to kids and a lot of them tell me they want to be famous—why?"
• "Some say he owns seventeen belts, but is severely allergic to them all," writes TopGear.com. "All we know is The Stig's Teenage Cousin is now hopelessly addicted to our brand new 'Race The Stig' game, and one day hopes to beat his more famous relation." TopGear.com is writing of a new online ad for the game, and here it is:
• Top Gear Live is going to Croatia, though no date has been set, reports Croatia Week. The site points to a Top Gear Live Croatia You Tube channel, with the following video on it:
• And finally, another piece of international news: soon Korean petrolheads will be able to buy Top Gear Korea-themed clothing, including t-shirts, jeans, tracksuits and jackets, reports Asia Media Journal. The hosts of the Korean version of the show, Jinpyo Kim, Alex and Danny Ahn, appeared at the line's launch at a Korean department store. Top Gear Korea just ended its fifth season in January.

Marussia sporting director Graeme Lowdon has insisted the team are "working towards" ensuring Max Chilton retains his seat for the remainder of the season.
Lowdon claims "a change in circumstances" forced the Banbury outfit into a U-turn yesterday, less than 24 hours after axing Chilton ahead of the Belgian Grand Prix due to "contractual issues" and replacing him with reserve Alexander Rossi.
It was understood the numerous investors behind Chilton had failed to fulfil their financial obligations in recent weeks, forcing Marussia to act.
Rossi then drove in first practice at Spa-Francorchamps, only for the team to announce Chilton would return for second practice and the rest of the weekend.
Back behind the wheel of his car again, the 23-year-old Briton was 18th, five seconds behind Lewis Hamilton and 1.3secs off teammate Jules Bianchi.
Lowdon was unable to elaborate on the nature of the circumstances behind Chilton's return, which far from suggested the aforementioned issues had been resolved and another reason lay behind the reversal.
"It would be inappropriate for me to comment on the details of the contractual issues because that is confidential between parties involved," said Lowdon.
"So there is nothing we can really say on that. This is a result of a change in circumstances.
"Obviously it is not within the team's decision to unilaterally change a driver, we have to request it with the stewards, which we did, and the stewards approved it.
"It is important to highlight all of that happened before first practice. It was no reflection on any driving at all. I have to say Alex Rossi acquitted himself incredibly well."
As for the situation going forward and whether Chilton will now be with the team for the rest of the campaign, Lowdon added: "The intention of the team is that it (Chilton and Jules Bianchi) is our driver line-up and that is what it will be for the whole season.
"That is certainly what we are working towards.
"We have seen there are things that can cause hiccups and changes in that, and that is just how things are."
LEAFIELD outfit Caterham F1 have appointed Chipping Norton-based Sean Walkinshaw Racing, who race in the BRDC Formula 4 Championship, as their driver development team in this category.

Seven dollars per day is not much. Forget buying a latte at Starbucks each morning. You would barely have enough money to eat afterwards. In fact, forget going out to eat. Period. The tip alone would eat up all of your daily allocation.
When many people hear child poverty in America, the first stereotype is an inner-city child. But in a nation where over 16 million children, more than one in five, are poor, the truth is that child poverty affects children everywhere, although we know it affects urban, suburban, and rural children in some ways differently.

I found the psychological and behavioral privilege associated with living wage work to be startling.

Photo Coverage: Rooney Mara's Vogue Cover
Rooney Mara's February issue of Vogue and the cover features a non-smiling but softer picture of the young star. Mara explains inside:
"The thing is [photo shoots are] kind of an annoying part of the job-because I'm not a model, and I don't want to be," says the actress. "I didn't try to be a style icon. I'm just not that interested in that world. But it does matter, and either I can fight that or I just have to accept that it is a part of my job, and I may as well wear things that I like and that represent me."
"Why should I 'fake smile'?" she adds. "It feels disingenuous to me. I want to smile when something happy happens, so if I do smile, you know it's real."

Former All Blacks wing Joe Rokocoko has been included in the Barbarians side to play England and the British & Irish Lions.
Rokocoko joins former international team-mate Nick Evans in the invitation team for both games, against England at Twickenham on May 26 and the Lions in Hong Kong in June.
The Hong Kong match will be the first for the Lions before they embark on their tour of Australia.
The team also includes New Zealander Jared Payne, who is one of two uncapped players traditionally picked by the Barbarians. Payne, who was signed by Ulster from the Blues two years ago, has just extended his stay at the Irish club by a further three years.
Rokocoko, 29, played the last of his 68 Tests in 2010, having scored 46 tries. He has since played for French club Bayonne.
Evans, 32, has forged a successful career at English club Harlequins since leaving New Zealand in 2008. He played 16 Tests.
There are still more players to be added to the squad of 22, which features an array of international players. That includes a trio of Welshmen who have previously played for the Lions - hooker Matthew Rees, scrum-half Dwayne Peel and fly-half James Hook.
Backs: Jared Payne (NZ), Rowan Varty (Hong Kong), Takudzwa Ngwenya (USA), Joe Rokocoko (NZ), James Hook (Wales), Nick Evans (NZ), Kahn Fotuali'i (Samoa), Dwayne Peel (Wales), Dimitri Yachvili (France).
Forwards: Duncan Jones (Wales), BJ Botha (South Africa), Paul James (Wales), Martin Castrogiovanni (Italy), Matthew Rees (Wales), Leonardo Ghiraldini (Italy), Marco Wentzel (South Africa), Jim Hamilton (Scotland), Francois Louw (South Africa), Sam Jones (Wales), Alessandro Zanni (Italy), Sergio Parisse (Italy), Imanol Harinordoquy (France).

Health Star of the Week: Ankit Sachdeva Fights Hypothyroidism and Junk Food
For 24-year-old Ankit his a genetic problem, Hypothyroidism that was playing a spoiler by causing quick weight gain. The young advertising guy didn't want his weight gain to hamper his personal life and future ambitions. He changed jobs, joined gym and galloped towards permanent weight loss.
Name: Ankit Sachdeva
Age: 27 years
Profession: Businessman
Weight before (July , 2010) : 82 kgs
Weight now (June, 2013): 70kgs
It was in 2009-2010, I started putting on weight overnight. No matter whatever I tried, my weight kept on increasing. Then I was working in an advertising agency, I had to sit in front of a computer for most of the time, there were no working hours and no scheduled holidays. Targets and getting business had overshadowed everything in my life. I thought that was the reason for my increased weight. But it was my parents who pointed out that it might be hypothyroidism that both of them suffered from. To my shock I was diagnosed with the same. At the age of 24 I panicked, I didn't want my weight to puncture my aspirations and confidence. Even my doctor advised me to lose weight.
How did you begin your weight loss? Tell us about the baby steps that you took, like avoiding junk, alcohol or if you started to take a walk after lunch etc.?
As I was working for long hours, joining a gym was impossible. I started jogging in the morning and took my hypothyroidism medicines daily. I started to monitor my eating; I avoided carbs and made a point to walk every day after my dinner for 20-30 minutes. I stopped going out with friends as it always culminated in me drinking alcohol and indulging in junk food. I had to change my whole lifestyle. I even celebrated a New Year's eve at home.
Tell us about your exercise regime? How difficult was it in the beginning to exercise? What were your biggest concerns?
I had recently shifted to a new job, and managed to join a gym. Initially my coach made me do only cardio as a result of running, I noticed that my face was getting thinner but fat was getting accumulated on my stomach. So then I started lifting weights and started doing some grueling abs and lower body workouts.
Tell us about your diet? What type of changes did you do? Did your family help you or join you in your efforts?
It was very difficult in the beginning. I used to cheat on my diet. I used to work very hard in gym but was not very strict with my diet. I realised that a good workout can only be effective if we support it with a proper diet. After my engagement, I became very conscious of what I was eating. I started by replacing tea with black coffee. I increased my intake of protein by replacing chapatti and rice with boiled chicken breast or boiled dal and morning paranthas with egg whites. I also avoided curd, onions and carbs. All these changes made me grumpy and rude at times. These mood swings was because I had lowered my sugar intake completely.
I had to keep on changing my diet, because after some weeks my body used to adapt to the diet and workout and then their effect (weight loss) started to hit a black hole. My family, especially my mom helped me a lot although she used to be a little worried about my diet. But she used to support me completely. Both my parents are pure vegetarians but they didn't object when I used to eat non-veg in same house. Now that was big sacrifice our family made for my fitness and weight loss.
Tell us about your diet in detail?
Pre workout (optional): a cup of black coffee with two Marie gold biscuits or half apple
Breakfast: 5 egg white, two slices of brown bread or cornflakes
Lunch: one chapatti with bowl of dal
Evening snack: black coffee, four egg whites (in winters)
Dinner: boiled dal or oats or chicken breast (in winters)
Tell us about the happiness or achievements post weight loss
When I see my old pictures it makes me very happy and gives me a sense of self belief. It feels great when my old pair of jeans fits effortlessly. My biggest achievement is that I no longer have to suck in or hide my stomach before getting my picture clicked!

The Senate is expected to pass on the petition questioning the status of the caretaker premier to the Constitutional Court on Monday, Senate secretary general Norarat Pimsen said.
The petition was submitted by 27 senators led by Paiboon Nititawan. The request was submitted after the Supreme Administrative Court ruled that Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra's transfer of National Security Council secretary general Thawil Pliensri was illegal.

The Portstewart-based group wowed the panel during the Belfast auditions in January with their "unique twist" on classic Irish Dancing, prompting Simon Cowell to hail them as the reason he wanted to come to the city.
The 15-strong act will now compete against 44 other hopefuls for the chance to be crowned the winners of Britain's Got Talent 2014, which includes a £250,000 cash prize and a spot at this year's Royal Variety Show.
Unfortunately Coleraine singer John James Glass did not receive good news as the judges decided not to put him through to the next stage of the competition.
John James performed a rendition of Any Dream Will Do for the panel, and while David Walliams, Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon were impressed with his performance, Simon was not.
This year each judge, plus Ant & Dec, were given the opportunity to put one act straight through to the live shows by pressing the golden buzzer after their audition.
Amanda sent through salsa dancing granny Paddy and her partner Nico, Alesha backed three-piece girl band REAformed, David chose singer Christian Spidon, while Simon championed young duo Bars & Melody.
During the final round of auditions Ant & Dec decided to hit the golden buzzer for comedian Toju Okorodudu.
The 40-year-old impressed the judges with a comedy routine which included impersonations of Cilla Black and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
The Geordie duo arrived on stage following the performance and immediately pressed the golden buzzer for the shocked hopeful.
"That really moved me. Ant and Dec, thank you so much boys!" said Alesha.
There's no one out there that I can think of right now who's like that.David Walliams on Toju Okorodudu
There's no one out there that I can think of right now who's like that.
David Walliams on Toju Okorodudu
Also wowing the panel was 12-year-old singer Ellis James Chick, who performed a rendition of You Make Me Feel So Young.
Alesha told him: "That song choice was genius and I've never been so relaxed watching someone so young perform. That was brilliant."
Simon praised the young singer's confidence, but warned him of picking up the "bad habits" of pub singer, telling him: "You have to be cooler than that."
Ellis will perform during this year's semi-finals.
Singing couple Kieran and Sarah also had to fight for Simon's approval after they performed a duet of Love Changes Everything.
With David having to physically restrain Simon from stopping the audition as he didn't like the song choice, he told them: "This is a tricky one guys - I do like your personalities a lot, you're really funny, really sweet but we've had better singers.
After Sarah pledged to work on their vocals, Simon said: "I feel that the audience will really like but that doesn't mean that we've necessarily found a star. You can sing, but I think you need a lot of work."
Kieran and Sarah eventually got four yes votes and were also put through to the live shows.
Catch the Britain's Got Talent live semi-finals on UTV from Monday 26 May at 7.30pm.

UK teacher bicycles through Israel in 8-month trip

After more than 10,000 km. and eight months riding a tandem bicycle across some of the poorest countries in Africa and the Sinai Peninsula, Stuart Block finally broke into his emergency food rations when he arrived in Tel Aviv on Wednesday night. The emergency – it was the evening of Holocaust Memorial Day and the entire city was closed."It's kind of funny, I finally use one in what is probably the most developed city I've been in yet," Block said in Tel Aviv on Thursday.The 33-year-old economics teacher from Surrey, England, is in Tel Aviv this week as part of his journey by tandem bike from South Africa to London, where he plans to arrive in time for the 2012 Olympic Games this summer.The 33-year-old high school economics teacher started planning the trip after the financial crisis in 2008, which he said spurred him to launch the bike journey. At the same time, left his job at Citigroup after eight years as an economist in London for a job teaching economics at the Cranleigh School in Surrey.His trip, which he labeled "Beyond the Bike 2011/2012 Livingstone to London: Cycling to the Olympics," is dedicated to raising £100,000 for the Kawama school in Zambia, which has partnered with his school in Surrey. So far, the cycling tour has garnered over £81,000 in donations. In addition to assisting humanitarian causes, Block said that the trip satisfied his own personal wanderlust.Block was also inspired in part by his parents, who for their honeymoon in the '70s drove from London to Cape Town in a Volkswagen camper van.Israel is the 12th country he has visited, and it hasn't been without some exhausting and hair-raising moments. In particular he said the uphill stretch on switchback desert roads from the Dead Sea to Jerusalem carrying 80 kilograms of gear was one of the hardest stretches of his trip so far, and he was forced to camp halfway just to rest and recuperate.Later, he felt a boost of adrenaline while racing across high-speed traffic on Highway 2 between Herzliya and Tel Aviv. "I was glad I couldn't understand the Hebrew the drivers were shouting at me," he said.Block teaches economics to 17- and 18-year-old private school students, many of whom followed his journey by way of his blog (www.beyondthebike.org) and a Facebook page that chronicled the trip. Part of the motivation, he said, is showing his students different parts of the world.The Israel portion of Block's trip consisted of the Dead Sea to Jerusalem to Nablus and up and around the Sea of Galilee. From there, he cycled to Nazareth and from the Galilee, down to Tel Aviv.Along the way, he couch-surfed with Israelis he'd met on his travels in Africa, including Hagai Mayer of Jerusalem, who met Block while backpacking in Tanzania. During Block's stay in Jerusalem, Mayer hosted him for the family's Passover Seder, another life event he can attribute to the worldly bike trip.When planning the Middle East portion of his trip, Block faced the prospect of visiting either Israel or Syria and Lebanon. Due to the state of war, an Israeli passport stamp disqualifies any foreigner from entering the two countries. Block decided to journey to Israel, since the revolutionary upheaval in Syria impeded his cross-country cycling plans.In order to skirt Israel's neighbors, Block will fly from Tel Aviv to Athens on Saturday, where he will make his way from the site of the first modern Olympic Games in 1896 to the 2012 games in London.When asked to describe the more dangerous legs of the trip – such as the Sinai Peninsula, now seen by most Israelis as a no-go zone of armed gangs and human traffickers – Block downplayed disparate Western notions of safety. "A general idea I got from the trip is that the media perspective is not always what you get on the ground. They tend to sensationalize things a bit," he said.Block added that the same media distortion happens in Israel. As a child, he relied on television images to imagine "some British journalist in a flak jacket standing somewhere in the West Bank."During the months-long journey, Block felt a combination of surprise and bemusement, and he mentioned the warm hospitality by samaritan strangers throughout the trip. On the other hand, Block was robbed once on the Tanzania – Malawi border, when a duo of money changers used a slight of hand to steal $20 of his spending money, the only such incident in over eight months on the road.The tandem bicycle has added a unique aspect to his trip, in that he has invited people to meet him on the journey along the way and ride with him for portions of his trip.So far, Block said that more than 150 people rode with him on the trip, including locals he picked up on the road and friends who flew out to join him on legs of the journey.Along the way, Block spent six weeks riding from Zambia to Luxor, Egypt, with an accordion-playing French couple, camped out in the desert with Nubian tribesman, and rode through the desert expanses of Wadi Rum in Jordan.After thousands of miles and more than a dozen countries, Block said that the true value of the journey became evident."A trip is best measured in the friends you make than in kilometers."

Critics blast MPI 'hiring spree'
Insurer says it's trying to contain costs as rate hike sought
Under pressure from critics, Manitoba Public Insurance says it is aggressively looking at ways to contain its costs to keep rates as low as possible.
But the Opposition Progressive Conservatives argue that doesn't appear to be the case for the Crown auto insurer's executives.
The PC's MPI critic Kelvin Goertzen said a leaked internal memo sent to MPI staff last week shows it hired a new vice-president and plans to add three new executive positions to better manage its frontline services. Plus, it says a position of vice-president of human resources and chief human resources officer are to be posted in the near term.
MPI spokesman Brian Smiley said the memo more accurately reflects a "shuffling of portfolios" among the existing vice-presidents after Dan Guimond was appointed as MPI's new president and CEO following the retirement of Marilyn McLaren earlier this year.
Smiley said there was only one new appointment: Brad Bunko was promoted to vice-president of business transformation, information technology and chief information officer as of May 5.
Goertzen said the "shuffling" was still poorly timed as it came days before MPI submitted its 2015 rate increase to the Public Utilities Board (PUB). MPI says because of the higher number of collisions last winter, it needs an overall rate increase of 3.4 per cent to deal with claims costs and to beef up its rate-stabilization fund.
"I don't think going on a bit of a hiring spree at the same time you're asking for a rate increase from Manitobans is going to give anybody who pays Autopac any sort of assurance that there is cost containment," Goertzen said.
Goertzen said the memo also says MPI plans to add a new deputy registrar and two executive directors.
"I hope this doesn't escape the PUB. They've referenced before the (internal) costs that are going on at MPI and asked the government to gets costs contained. Quite frankly, I think it takes a little bit of chutzpah that when you're asking for a rate increase you go on a hiring spree. Apparently, the cold winter didn't affect any of the executives over at MPI."
In past orders, the PUB has been highly critical of MPI for the way it spends money.
"It is the view of the board that the corporation must control its expenses, and reverse the trend of ongoing growth in expenses over time," the PUB said in a December 2013 order. "The board also has concerns with respect to the corporation's staffing levels, which have continued to increase."
The PUB is to begin hearing evidence of MPI's proposed rate increase this fall. The PUB is expected to make its decision before the end of the year.
Much of MPI's case is filed in three volumes at the PUB and is posted on MPI's website.
In it, MPI says despite the higher number of claims this year, total corporate claims and operating expenses are lower than the year before. It says because of containment measures already undertaken it has seen cost savings -- or cost avoidance -- of $60 million a year.
MPI says those measures include an indefinite hiring freeze (a minimum of 80 full-time positions are unfilled each year), a restriction on out-of-province travel, a restriction on expenses filed by staff for internal meetings and proposed restrictions on discretionary spending on conferences, sponsorships and consultants.
Goertzen said those cost-cutting plans should include executives.
"You'd think the first place you'd be looking to cut costs is the high-end positions," he said. "They're loading up instead of downloading some of these positions. It sort of boggles the mind."
The PCs have recently been critical of MPI for hiring McLaren as a consultant following her retirement Feb. 21.
The Free Press reported McLaren will receive close to $500,000 in compensation from the auto insurer this year. The amount does not include a $50,000 consulting contract with MPI, which was approved by the Selinger cabinet several weeks after her departure.
The Free Press obtained the amount of McLaren's compensation package in a freedom of information request after her consulting contract became an issue in the Manitoba legislature.
Andrew Swan, the minister responsible for the public auto insurer, has said McLaren's experience will be invaluable to MPI in its 2015 rate application.
Meanwhile, the Canadian Automobile Association says the City of Winnipeg shares the blame for MPI rate hikes.
The CAA says winter claims and associated costs could have been reduced if the city had done a better job clearing snow from the streets.
Ice ruts plagued drivers in December and January.

Increase in MPI salaries
The ranks of MPI employees making over $100,000 have more than doubled in just three years. MPI is required to disclose all salaries above $50,000 by provincial law. Here we compare salary figures from 2009 and 2012 (the latest year for which data is available).
In 2012, MPI spent $13.7 million to pay employees making over $100,000, compared to $6.8 million in 2009. Six executives made over $200,000 in 2012, compared to three in 2009. Former president and CEO Marilyn McLaren's salary jumped by $38,000 in the same time period.
MPI's highest paid individuals in 2012 were:
Marilyn McLaren, President and Chief Executive Officer, $299,684.50
Ted Hlynsky, Vice President, Claims Control & Safety Operations, 260,344.01
Dan Guimond, Vice President, Strategy & Innovation and CIO, $235,613.14
Ted Teterenko, Director, Urban Service Centre Operations $234,460.53
MaryAnn Kempe, Vice President, Community and Corporate Relations, $219,562.36

Report: Cliff Lee Has Red Sox, Yankees Among 20 Teams in No-Trade Clause If Phillies Try to Move Him
Originally written on NESN.com | Last updated 11/16/14
Other pitchers have put up stats similar to those of Cliff Lee, but few can replicate the success he's had at being trade deadline bait. With the Phillies faltering at 28-30, third in the National League East, the team that Lee handpicked in free agency three years ago now appears primed to trade him again. While the Phillies were the one team that didn't move Lee at the midsummer deadline in the three times he's been traded (they traded him in the 2009 offseason, while Cleveland dealt him at the 2009 deadline and Seattle at 2010 midway mark), this could be their year to make the move. Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports reports that Lee has 20 teams listed in the no-trade clause of his contract with the Phillies, including the Red Sox, Yankees, Rangers and Orioles. That means those teams would need Lee's permission to acquire him, and that they would likely have to put up more money to do so. Lee has three years and $77.5 million left on his contract after this season (the third year has a vesting option and $12.5 million buyout), but the Phillies haven't indicated that they want to dismantle their current squad or deal Lee. Lee told Morosi that he wasn't "going to get too caught up" in the trade rumors, but he was aware of the team's state and his role in keeping himself from being sent to a new team. "Management is going to have some decisions to make when we get closer to the trade deadline if we continue to play the way we have," he said. "I want to do everything I can to make sure they're not forced to make some of those decisions. I'm just going to try to pitch and do everything I can to help the team win." While Lee was able to pick the Phillies from among other suitors several seasons ago, that decision may be out of his hands now that the team hasn't turned into the contender he expected. "Every time I've been traded, before that, every organization would say, 'You'll be the first one to know if we're ever going to move you," he said. "I was the last one to know every time." In fact, Lee said, he found out about each trade while watching TV. The Red Sox have had strong pitching this year, but Lee would be an upgrade over every starter but Jon Lester and Clay Buchholz. Boston also has room to maneuver, with space under the salary cap and plenty of prospects. Lee is 7-2 with a 2.45 ERA and 74 strikeouts in 88 1/3 innings pitched this year.

That's nothing. Show him a football player who hasn't taken a pic with Lisa Ann and it will surprise him

I would say we need to play with consistency and together. If you watch OSU play this season, you notice that every game, a different unit of the defense plays completely different from how it played the week before. One week, the linebackers are terrific, the next they are subpar. Josh Perry has been pretty good all season but we suspect last game. Same for our wideouts and d-line. When Bosa is down, Bennett is up. When Bennett is down, Bosa is up. If everyone played on full blast, we are the best team in the nation
I would assume the same thing we do every year. Last year we held him to 74 yards on 15 carries. The year before that, our defense was completely horrible and we held Wisky to 206 yards. I think Melvin Gordon is overrated in my opinion and pretty much the same as Monte Ball and John Clay. I think Corey Clement, the smaller and shiftier back, is a bigger worry to us.
I will admit that this was actually funny and clever. I will say that everyone has a hard game and Jalin is doing well, relatively, for his first full year playing wide receiver and returning punts. The dude was a quarterback his entire high school career and is still adjusting.
Well, you have to get some kinda redemption after all of those loses this week
Well, you clearly have forgotten the go ahead win against Wisconsin in 2011 so I think someone should remind you
Thanks, well in that case, he is still shitty bc his tight end has one catch and their offense isn't looking too great
You mean it was a competitive loss. It shows how strong the SEC is. That was the best scoreless effort from a team I have seen this season
Wait... did you just quote yourself?
Yeah it definitely looked like he dove to try to avoid hitting him
Well, I think you can blame them for being jittery and inexperienced, but thry don't suck. They pretty much controlled the line of scrimmage the entire first half. Only time they showed their weaknesses was when Penn State put 8 on the line and confused them
Let's be realistic, when the offense is having 4 and outs every drive of the second half and you give the ball to an offense that is half decent, of course they are going to score. They attacked us at our weakest point but that doesn't mean we are weak.
Already projected to be a better passer than Bauserman. Maybe Fickell and Bollman will start him over Braxton too
That sounds like Yahoo's comments
Birm, my question to you is are the coaches on staff willing to take TG over Haskins?
I agree with the other poster, Lee has a whole year to redshirt. Also, When Shazier came in, he had only played defensive end in high school and was too undersized to play it in college. He had to come from a position where all he had to do was rush and react to read and react. You also have to look at the fact that the cupboard was empty, there were no upperclassmen playing well when Shazier came in, Sabino was coming off his redshirt, and there was a lack any coaching with all of the turmoil. Only difference between the d-line now and then is this line is actually athletic.
I think Eli's problem is he relies too much on his athletic abilities to make plays, which is why he's always out of place. He isn't that fast or quick so its hard for him to makeup ground. But overall, he is a good corner and I expect him to continue learning himself and the college football game. When that happens, he is going to be a top-5 or top-10 corner
Hackenberg is overrated. His is hit or miss in terms of performance. He has all of the power and makes the right throws, but he also throws like 2 picks a game and makes many questionable throws (which are usually picked off). As long as there is a hand in Hackenberg's face, expect him to throw about 2 picks.
For all of those making the Shazier comparisons, I find it a bit hard to compare them. To me, Shazier was a pure linebacker or defensive who had the size and speed of a safety. His speed and instincts allowed him to secure the field and make plays whenever he pleased. With Lee, he isn't really a pure linebacker in my eyes. Lee is more of a safety in a linebacker role. Though they have similar size, Lee's aggression is subtle. For example, what Shazier would do is explode though the line and blow up whoever had the ball. Lee, on the other hand, is usually a step or two behind where Shazier would have been but breaks down and makes his powerful hits like they are open-field tackles
Stoops won't be there in 2017
I didn't know Brady Hoke was a Florida fan. Must be his next job
Well, Wilson has all of those qualities but he isn't as good as Harvin. He has speed but doesn't have breakaway speed. He has vision but doesn't have the ability to bust long runs. He is shifty but isn't going to break anyone's ankles. I think he develops into a more complete player but I don't think he will ever become a Harvin type player
I have to think that he's UK's to lose. He is being sold on being the star back in UK's air raid offense, which is nothing because the probably will make him more of a glorified receiver. Also, he has attended a ton of games this year and they have put up some very good showings against the declining SEC East teams. The team is up and coming and runs a scheme that is built to put up incredible numbers on offense, which of course excites the crowd and that affects the recruits.

The Da Vinci Blues
Through my strings
grovels the Blues
da Vinci paints
facing pages
worlds of smile
to reach me after a while.
To reach you
worlds smile
to be painted by da Vinci
on your facing pages
to grovel into my strings
to make the Blues sing.
With clair-obscures
nature in yours
shows all your views
smiling through amplitudes
of vastnesses and dream about
strings that let the Blues spring.
