Teams: Chennai Super Kings | India | Sri Lanka
The IPL 2013 matches in Chennai will not feature any Sri Lankan cricketers or match officials, the league's governing council said after a meeting on Tuesday. It said the decision was taken keeping in mind security concerns in Chennai.
"The security of all involved in the IPL, whether players, spectators or those working in the stadiums, is of paramount importance to the BCCI," the statement said. "The governing council decided that Sri Lankan players will not participate in the IPL 2013 league matches in Chennai and will advise the nine franchises accordingly."
The decision followed growing political tensions, stemming from the treatment of ethnic Tamils in Sri Lanka and capped by a letter written on Tuesday by the Tamil Nadu state government to the prime minister asking for a ban on Sri Lankan involvement in the Chennai leg of the IPL.
The letter, written by the chief minister J Jayalalitha, was unequivocal in its stand. "In such a hostile and tense environment, we apprehend that the participation of Sri Lankan players in the IPL tournament, with many games to be played in Chennai, will aggravate an already surcharged atmosphere and further offend the sentiments of the people."
Earlier this month the DMK, the main opposition party in Tamil Nadu and a key ally of the federal government, pulled out of the ruling coalition at the centre asking for sterner measures to redress alleged atrocities towards Tamils in Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) said it was monitoring the developments in India closely and was waiting for a travel advisory from the Sri Lankan government. "If there is a secondary threat to a player in a particular area then we will wait for the government's advice," Nishantha Ranatunga, the SLC secretary, told ESPNcricinfo. "We have written to Ministry of Foreign Affairs through our Minister of Sport to get feedback on our players' safety."
The "ban" will affect Chennai Super Kings, who play all their eight home matches in Chennai; however, their Sri Lankan contingent consists of only two fringe players, Nuwan Kulasekara and Akila Dananjaya. Franchises that will be significantly hit, at least for the lone game they play in Chennai in the league phase, include Mumbai Indians (Lasith Malinga), Delhi Daredevils (Mahela Jayawardene), Sunrisers Hyderabad (Kumar Sangakkara) and Pune Warriors (Angelo Mathews). Chennai also hosts some of the knockout matches, where these players would be crucial if their teams make it that far.
"We were first told by the IPL authorities about the problem in Tamil Nadu around a fortnight ago," a franchise official said. "And after due consultations, almost all the franchises are happy losing one or two of their players for one game rather than the whole tournament."
It is not yet clear whether Super Kings will decide to withdraw their Sri Lankan players for the season but if so, the players will be compensated with their contract fees for the entire season.
Sri Lankan players in IPL:
Nuwan Kulasekara and Akila Dananjaya (Chennai Super Kings)
Mahela Jayawardene and Jeevan Mendis (Delhi Daredevils)
Sachithra Senanayake (Kolkata Knight Riders)

Ajantha Mendis and Angelo Mathews (Pune Warriors)

Investment Column: Alliance is not so great for missing rally
Tuesday 22 September 2009
Our view: Sell
Share price: 309. p (+0.5p)
Alliance Trust's chief executive, Katherine Garrett-Cox, has been saddled with one of those media nicknames that can so easily become a millstone. And that is exactly what "Katherine the Great" has become, given that the performance of Alliance Trust, the gigantic investment trust that she runs, has been anything but.
It was hard to find much to be positive about from yesterday's interim results. The trust was in the bottom quartile of its sector (Global Growth and Global Growth and Income Investment Trusts), having missed out on the stock market's summer rally.
Alliance says that it believes that "in some cases" there has been no fundamental change to the companies whose share prices have soared as a result of the rally. Its argument is that the increase in prices is not "necessarily reflective of any improvement in their underlying value". In other words, the market has got it wrong. That's a brave call for a company like Alliance to make, because if the companies behind the rally – financials, miners, cyclical stocks – retain their value and build on recent gains, Alliance will look rather silly.
Focusing on well-managed companies with healthy balance sheets and good cash flow is a great idea. But you have to pick the right ones as an active manager, otherwise your investors may as well invest in trackers. And tracking the FTSE All World index would have yielded a far better return than Alliance over the past six months. The Trust looks better over the year, but the 15 per cent discount to net asset value in the shares tells its own story. Of course, there is always a prospect of corporate action that could narrow this, but big generalist trusts tend to be difficult to shake up.
Alliance's long-term strategy looks sensible enough, the US and the UK are being focused on for income while Asia is there for growth, but it is not currently producing results, and the discount looms large. Great it may be in the future, but for the present, sell.
Our view: Hold
Share price: 34.65p (-0.35p)
Morse's woeful performance on the market over the past 18 months is hardly a mystery worthy of the eponymous television detective. The IT company has been battered by the onset of the downturn and falling demand. The stock was at 37.75p when this column last ran the slide rule over it a year ago. We said sell, and it subsequently plumbed the depths to about 4p, before climbing back up again.
Some felt Morse – which resells technology from companies including HP and IBM, as well as providing maintenance and support and business applications – had overstretched. However, it has since been streamlined, and the rocky finances are stabilised.
Morse has overhauled its board, bringing in chairman Kevin Loosemore and chief executive Mike Phillips to start the firefighting and turn the company around. The management also launched a restructuring plan which is now largely completed, and are looking towards growth in 2010.
Morse's annual results earlier this month showed a "very challenging" first nine months, according to Investec, but profits did rise in the fourth quarter. However, whether the server support and maintenance market – its biggest business – will return enough to make it worth a punt is debatable, especially as no dividend is expected until 2012.
Panmure has Morse on a price-to-earnings ratio of 6.6 times forecast full-year earnings, which doesn't look too demanding. But despite the positive end to the year – traditionally the group's strongest quarter – the upside isn't clear enough to pile in yet. The shares aren't likely to sink much either, though, so we feel that we can upgrade our view to a hold.
Allergy Therapeutics
Our view: Buy
Share price: 18.54p (+1.29p)
Despite green shoots now forming part of the everyday lexicon for small-cap biotechnology companies, equity funding is still hard to come by. That is why investors should pay special attention to Allergy Therapeutics, the Aim-listed vaccines group.
The company got a big vote of confidence from the markets, was able to cut much of its debt and restructure its balance sheet after raising £22m in a rights issue earlier this year. Yesterday's preliminary results were also encouraging: research and development spend has fallen from £16.3m to £5.3m after two trials came to an end, leading to a 20 per cent hike in gross profits and a reduced operating loss.
Investors in the biotech industry need share prices to rise (you've more chance of winning the lottery than getting a dividend), and those that bought these shares a year ago have seen their investment jump by 27.8 per cent.
The stock reflects the flow of good news, and while we remain bullish, we caution that the gains made over the last 12 months may not be quite as impressive going forward. Sill, buy.

Navy Admiral William H. McRaven, ninth commander of U.S. Special Operations Command, gave the commencement address at his alma mater, the University of Texas, on May 17 and most of what he said was prominently displayed in my Weekend edition of The Wall Street Journal yesterday. Copies immediately sprang up on various Internet sites and I would miss a great calling if I dared not share it.
I hope you will forward a copy of Admiral McRaven's words to every high school and college graduate you may know because this could well be the greatest "lecture on life" that I have ever read. I adore stories that motivate, that inspire and that teach. With the idea that this does all three and more, be it known Bill McRaven has never made his university more proud as he did with these words:
* * *
The University of Texas slogan is "What starts here changes the world."
I have to admit—I kinda like it.
"What starts here changes the world."
Tonight there are almost 8,000 students graduating from UT.
That great paragon of analytical rigor, Ask.Com, says that the average American will meet 10,000 people in their lifetime.
That's a lot of folks. But if every one of you changed the lives of just 10 people, and each one of those folks changed the lives of another 10 people—just 10—then in five generations, 125 years, the class of 2014 will have changed the lives of 800 million people.
Eight-hundred million people—think of it: over twice the population of the United States. Go one more generation and you can change the entire population of the world—eight billion people.
If you think it's hard to change the lives of 10 people, change their lives forever, you're wrong.
I saw it happen every day in Iraq and Afghanistan.
A young Army officer makes a decision to go left instead of right down a road in Baghdad and the 10 soldiers with him are saved from close-in ambush.
In Kandahar province, Afghanistan, a noncommissioned officer from the Female Engagement Team senses something isn't right and directs the infantry platoon away from a 500-pound IED, saving the lives of a dozen soldiers.
But, if you think about it, not only were these soldiers saved by the decisions of one person, but their children yet unborn were also saved. And their children's children were saved.
Generations were saved by one decision, by one person.
But changing the world can happen anywhere and anyone can do it.
So, what starts here can indeed change the world, but the question is: What will the world look like after you change it?
Well, I am confident that it will look much, much better, but if you will humor this old sailor for just a moment, I have a few suggestions that may help you on your way to a better a world.
And while these lessons were learned during my time in the military, I can assure you that it matters not whether you ever served a day in uniform. It matters not your gender, your ethnic or religious background, your orientation, or your social status. Our struggles in this world are similar and the lessons to overcome those struggles and to move forward—changing ourselves and the world around us—will apply equally to all.
I have been a Navy SEAL for 36 years. But it all began when I left the University of Texas for Basic SEAL training in Coronado, Calif.
Basic SEAL training is six months of long, torturous runs in the soft sand, midnight swims in the cold water off San Diego, obstacle courses, unending calisthenics, days without sleep and always being cold, wet and miserable.
It is six months of being constantly harassed by professionally trained warriors who seek to find the weak of mind and body and eliminate them from ever becoming a Navy SEAL.
But, the training also seeks to find those students who can lead in an environment of constant stress, chaos, failure and hardships. To me basic SEAL training was a lifetime of challenges crammed into six months.
So, here are lessons I learned from basic SEAL training that hopefully will be of value to you as you move forward in life.
1. Every morning in basic SEAL training, my instructors, who at the time were all Vietnam veterans, would show up in my barracks room and the first thing they would inspect was your bed. If you did it right, the corners would be square, the covers pulled tight, the pillow centered just under the headboard and the extra blanket folded neatly at the foot of the rack—that's Navy talk for bed.
It was a simple task, mundane at best. But every morning we were required to make our bed to perfection. It seemed a little ridiculous at the time, particularly in light of the fact that were aspiring to be real warriors, tough battle hardened SEALs, but the wisdom of this simple act has been proven to me many times over.
If you make your bed every morning you will have accomplished the first task of the day. It will give you a small sense of pride and it will encourage you to do another task and another and another. By the end of the day, that one task completed will have turned into many tasks completed. Making your bed will also reinforce the fact that little things in life matter.
If you can't do the little things right, you will never do the big things right.
And if by chance you have a miserable day, you will come home to a bed that is made—that you made—and a made bed gives you encouragement that tomorrow will be better.
If you want to change the world, start off by making your bed.
2. During SEAL training the students are broken down into boat crews. Each crew is seven students—three on each side of a small rubber boat and one coxswain to help guide the dingy. Every day, your boat crew forms up on the beach and is instructed to get through the surfzone and paddle several miles down the coast.
In the winter, the surf off San Diego can get to be 8 to 10 feet high and it is exceedingly difficult to paddle through the plunging surf unless everyone digs in. Every paddle must be synchronized to the stroke count of the coxswain. Everyone must exert equal effort or the boat will turn against the wave and be unceremoniously tossed back on the beach.
For the boat to make it to its destination, everyone must paddle.
You can't change the world alone—you will need some help—and to truly get from your starting point to your destination takes friends, colleagues, the goodwill of strangers and a strong coxswain to guide them.
If you want to change the world, find someone to help you paddle.
3. Over a few weeks of difficult training my SEAL class, which started with 150 men, was down to just 42. There were now six boat crews of seven men each.
I was in the boat with the tall guys, but the best boat crew we had was made up of the little guys—the munchkin crew we called them. No one was over about 5-foot-5.
The munchkin boat crew had one American Indian, one African-American, one Polish-American, one Greek-American, one Italian-American and two tough kids from the Midwest.
They out-paddled, out-ran and out-swam all the other boat crews.
The big men in the other boat crews would always make good-natured fun of the tiny little flippers the munchkins put on their tiny little feet prior to every swim. But somehow these little guys, from every corner of the nation and the world, always had the last laugh—swimming faster than everyone and reaching the shore long before the rest of us.
SEAL training was a great equalizer. Nothing mattered but your will to succeed. Not your color, not your ethnic background, not your education and not your social status.
If you want to change the world, measure people by the size of their heart, not the size of their flippers.
4. Several times a week, the instructors would line up the class and do a uniform inspection. It was exceptionally thorough. Your hat had to be perfectly starched, your uniform immaculately pressed and your belt buckle shiny and void of any smudges.
But it seemed that no matter how much effort you put into starching your hat, or pressing your uniform or polishing your belt buckle, it just wasn't good enough. The instructors would find "something" wrong.
For failing the uniform inspection, the student had to run, fully clothed, into the surfzone and then, wet from head to toe, roll around on the beach until every part of your body was covered with sand. The effect was known as a "sugar cookie." You stayed in that uniform the rest of the day—cold, wet and sandy.
There were many students who just couldn't accept the fact that all their effort was in vain. That no matter how hard they tried to get the uniform right, it was unappreciated.
Those students didn't make it through training. Those students didn't understand the purpose of the drill. You were never going to succeed. You were never going to have a perfect uniform.
Sometimes, no matter how well you prepare or how well you perform, you still end up as a sugar cookie. It's just the way life is sometimes.
If you want to change the world, get over being a sugar cookie and keep moving forward.
5. Every day during training you were challenged with multiple physical events. Long runs, long swims, obstacle courses, hours of calisthenics—something designed to test your mettle.
Every event had standards, times that you had to meet. If you failed to meet those standards, your name was posted on a list and at the end of the day those on the list were invited to a "circus."
A circus was two hours of additional calisthenics designed to wear you down, to break your spirit, to force you to quit. No one wanted a circus. A circus meant that for that day you didn't measure up. A circus meant more fatigue, and more fatigue meant that the following day would be more difficult—and more circuses were likely.
But at some time during SEAL training, everyone—everyone—made the circus list. Yet an interesting thing happened to those who were constantly on the list. Over time those students, who did two hours of extra calisthenics, got stronger and stronger. The pain of the circuses built inner strength—built physical resiliency.
Life is filled with circuses. You will fail. You will likely fail often. It will be painful. It will be discouraging. At times it will test you to your very core.
But if you want to change the world, don't be afraid of the circuses.
6. At least twice a week, the trainees were required to run the obstacle course. The obstacle course contained 25 obstacles including a 10-foot-high wall, a 30-foot cargo net and a barbed-wire crawl, to name a few.
But the most challenging obstacle was the slide for life. It had a three-level, 30-foot tower at one end and a one-level tower at the other. In between was a 200-foot-long rope.
You had to climb the three-tiered tower and, once at the top, you grabbed the rope, swung underneath the rope and pulled yourself hand over hand until you got to the other end.
The record for the obstacle course had stood for years when my class began training in 1977. The record seemed unbeatable until one day a student decided to go down the slide for life—head-first. Instead of swinging his body underneath the rope and inching his way down, he bravely mounted the top of the rope and thrust himself forward.
It was a dangerous move—seemingly foolish, and fraught with risk. Failure could mean injury and being dropped from the training. Without hesitation, the student slid down the rope, perilously fast. Instead of several minutes, it only took him half that time and by the end of the course he had broken the record.
If you want to change the world sometimes you have to slide down the obstacle head-first.
7. During the land-warfare phase of training, the students are flown out to San Clemente Island near San Diego. The waters off San Clemente are a breeding ground for great white sharks. To pass SEAL training, there are a series of long swims that must be completed. One is the night swim.
Before the swim, the instructors joyfully brief the trainees on all the species of sharks that inhabit the waters off San Clemente. The instructors assure you, however, that no student has ever been eaten by a shark—at least not recently.
But, you are also taught that if a shark begins to circle your position, stand your ground. Do not swim away. Do not act afraid. And if the shark, hungry for a midnight snack, darts towards you, then summon up all your strength and punch him in the snout and he will turn and swim away.
There are a lot of sharks in the world. If you hope to complete the swim you will have to deal with them.
So, if you want to change the world, don't back down from the sharks.
8. As Navy SEALs, one of our jobs is to conduct underwater attacks against enemy shipping. We practiced this technique extensively during basic training. The ship-attack mission is where a pair of SEAL divers is dropped off outside an enemy harbor and then swims well over 2 miles—underwater—using nothing but a depth gauge and a compass to get to their target.
During the entire swim, even well below the surface, there is some light that comes through. It is comforting to know that there is open water above you. But as you approach the ship, which is tied to a pier, the light begins to fade. The steel structure of the ship blocks the moonlight, it blocks the surrounding street lamps, it blocks all ambient light.
To be successful in your mission, you have to swim under the ship and find the keel—the centerline and the deepest part of the ship. This is your objective. But the keel is also the darkest part of the ship, where you cannot see your hand in front of your face, where the noise from the ship's machinery is deafening and where it is easy to get disoriented and fail.
Every SEAL knows that under the keel, at the darkest moment of the mission, is the time when you must be calm, composed—when all your tactical skills, your physical power and all your inner strength must be brought to bear.
If you want to change the world, you must be your very best in the darkest moment.
9. The ninth week of SEAL training is referred to as Hell Week. It is six days of no sleep, constant physical and mental harassment and one special day at the Mud Flats. The Mud Flats are an area between San Diego and Tijuana where the water runs off and creates the Tijuana slues—a swampy patch of terrain where the mud will engulf you.
It is on Wednesday of Hell Week that you paddle down to the mud flats and spend the next 15 hours trying to survive the freezing-cold mud, the howling wind and the incessant pressure from the instructors to quit.
As the sun began to set that Wednesday evening, my training class, having committed some "egregious infraction of the rules" was ordered into the mud. The mud consumed each man till there was nothing visible but our heads. The instructors told us we could leave the mud if only five men would quit—just five men and we could get out of the oppressive cold.
Looking around the mud flat, it was apparent that some students were about to give up. It was still over eight hours till the sun came up—eight more hours of bone-chilling cold. The chattering teeth and shivering moans of the trainees were so loud it was hard to hear anything. And then, one voice began to echo through the night—one voice raised in song.
The song was terribly out of tune, but sung with great enthusiasm. One voice became two, and two became three, and before long everyone in the class was singing.
We knew that if one man could rise above the misery then others could as well. The instructors threatened us with more time in the mud if we kept up the singing—but the singing persisted. And somehow, the mud seemed a little warmer, the wind a little tamer and the dawn not so far away.
If I have learned anything in my time traveling the world, it is the power of hope. The power of one person—Washington, Lincoln, King, Mandela and even a young girl from Pakistan named Malala—can change the world by giving people hope.
So, if you want to change the world, start singing when you're up to your neck in mud.
10. Finally, in SEAL training there is a bell. A brass bell that hangs in the center of the compound for all the students to see.
All you have to do to quit is ring the bell. Ring the bell and you no longer have to wake up at 5 o'clock. Ring the bell and you no longer have to do the freezing cold swims. Ring the bell and you no longer have to do the runs, the obstacle course, the PT—and you no longer have to endure the hardships of training. Just ring the bell.
If you want to change the world don't ever, ever ring the bell.
To the graduating class of 2014, you are moments away from graduating. Moments away from beginning your journey through life. Moments away from starting to change the world—for the better.
It will not be easy.
But start each day with a task completed. Find someone to help you through life. Respect everyone. Know that life is not fair and that you will fail often, but if you take some risks, step up when the times are toughest, face down the bullies, lift up the downtrodden and never, ever give up—if you do these things, then the next generation and the generations that follow will live in a world far better than the one we have today. And what started here will indeed have changed the world, for the better.
Thank you very much. Hook 'em horns.

Feasibility Study of Factors of Deforestation and Commodities' Management in Sambas District, West Kalimantan
SNV is a not-for-profit international development organization. Founded in the Netherlands nearly 50 years ago, we have built a long-term, local presence in 38 of the poorest countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America. Our global team of local and international advisors work with local partners to equip communities, businesses and organizations with the tools, knowledge and connections they need to increase their incomes and gain access to basic services – empowering them to break the cycle of poverty and guide their own development.
SNV works in partnership with Government and industry across three main sectors in Indonesia, water and sanitation, renewable energy and agriculture as well as the cross-cutting issue of climate change. This position will be part of our Commodities and Climate Change team.
The debate concerning sustainability of agriculture production is on-going, as problems with deforestation, loss of biodiversity and social issues are still associated with commodity cultivation and expansion, such as rubber, oil palm, cocoa and many more. It is also evident that low production is the main driver of agriculture encroachment into the forest. Thus, improving yields is a one of key aspects of sustainability, as higher yields per hectare improve land use efficiency and decrease the need for expansion into pristine natural areas to meet demands.
SNV has set an objective to develop guidance on Better Management Practices (BMP) for smallholders and develop a training program to assist farmers implementing improved management and increasing production while mitigating the environmental impact. Better Management Practices Training material will be complemented with the cooperative/ institutional development, environmental awareness/improved forest management, optimizing use of waste streams.
The study is to provide a backdrop for SNV on causes of deforestation and the current practices of commodities caused deforestation in the area. The information is important in order to prepare tools and identify the most relevant locations to develop an inclusive business model for selected sectors/commodities, basically enabling companies to include producers in the supply chain and providing extension services, which will lead to increased production while developing an improved relationship and loyalty.
Included in the project interventions will be methods for reducing environmental impact and promote sustainable selected commodities production with a focus on reducing the impact on forests areas and reducing greenhouse gasses emission. This will be carried out in partnership with local government, smallholder farmers, industry and other stakeholders in the area of sustainable production.
Sambas District has been considered by SNV for a potential project, targeting agriculture commodities i.e. rubber, oil palm and cocoa. In 2012, the total forested area in Sambas District was 193.375 hectares, where 58.32% of the total area comprises of production forest, 11.62% of protected forest, 13.23% of tourism forest, 5.27% of limited production forest, 7.49% of conversion forest and 4.07% of protected mangrove forest. However, in 2013 the total forested area shrank to 167,323 hectares.
On the other hand, the number of agriculture areas has increased from 102,634 ha in 2008 to 155,506 ha in 2013. Rubber, Oil Palm and Coconut are among the three commodities contribute to that number. Palm oil plantation has a total area of about 73.8K hectares with a total production of 41.5K tons. Rubber plantation is about 53.4K hectares with a total production of about 17.03K tons, while coconut plantation has a total area of 22.6K hectares with a total production of 13.7K tons.
In order to develop a project, a feasibility study in the target area is a necessity. SNV is currently looking for consultant(s) to support this feasibility study. The consultant(s) will work with the Team Leader Commodities and Climate Change to perform a short site assessment survey in Sambas, West Kalimantan.
The objective of the feasibility study in Sambas District is to identify the target areas for pilots and to recommend interventions that could be introduced to the selected commodities considering the impact on forests and green house has emissions. The results of the social and economic assessment should identify the problems or constraints with replanting or intensification, and enabling conditions needed to implement the related technologies, in this case, the better management practices (BMP).
Scope of Work
1. Identify the rate of deforestation and its underlying cause at the district level using spatial analysis approach. This includes the identification of commodities that are having the most impact on deforestation and greenhouse gasses emission.
2. Identify suitable sites for intervention on increased production and reducing environmental impact. For each the selected sites assess:
- Demographic information (number of farmers, household information, livelihood, etc)
- Agronomical aspects of commodities (varieties, etc)
- Productivity and sustainability of selected commodities
- Production cycle of selected commodities
- Economic value of selected commodities (income, etc)
- Environmental condition
- Current projects being implemented in the area and the associated organizations, including success stories, factors contributing to success, as well as any unsuccessful project
- Relevant spatial data (on distribution of farms, forest, conservation values).
3. Create a list of sites in in the target areas based on opportunities for increasing production and proximity to forest areas and review findings with SNV to decide on potential sites.
4. Identify NGOs, business actors and other active stakeholders in the selected commodities/sectors, as well as recommend potential partner organizations for implementation of trainings on increased production and reducing environmental impact.
5. Identify major challenges faced by producers and industry in these areas of the selected commodities. Explain SNV Better Management Practice tool and Inclusive Business model to measure interest in cooperation.
6. Prepare a final report with recommendations of best sites and best strategies for project implementation.
Required Skills:
1. University degree with relevant background in forestry and agriculture, social, economy, or development study.
2. Good understanding and knowledge on agriculture, forestry and climate change issues in Indonesia
3. Good communication and relationship with local and national governments, private sectors, as well as association/NGOs in the relevant sectors.
4. Experienced in conducting research in Indonesia
5. Excellent communication and writing skills
6. Fluent English and Indonesian
How to apply?
Please send your application letter describing how you meet the candidate profile and CV, with "Consultant for Feasibility Study in Sambas" in the subject to firstname.lastname@example.com by 01 December 2014.

St. Louis, MO (SportsNetwork.com) - Oscar Taveras homered in his MLB debut, Michael Wacha tossed six scoreless innings and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the San Francisco Giants, 2-0, on Saturday.
Taveras went 1-for-3 for the Cardinals, who had lost the first two contests of this four-game series. The left-handed hitting 21-year-old started in right field and batted sixth.
"I'll say that was a huge boost for us," said St. Louis manager Mike Matheny about Taveras. "What a great day for him, one I'm sure he won't forget and neither will we."
Rated by Baseball America as the club's top prospect each of the past two years, Taveras became the first Cardinals player to homer in his first MLB game since Steven Hill on Aug. 15, 2010.
Wacha (4-3) improved to 4-0 at home this season after giving up three hits and striking out seven.
Yusmeiro Petit (3-3) allowed one run on two hits with five strikeouts over six innings for the Giants, who had a four-game winning streak snapped. Petit started in place of the injured Matt Cain, who was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a right hamstring strain.
"He did a great job and threw the ball very well," said San Francisco manager Bruce Bochy about Petit. "It was a close ball game, we just couldn't do anything offensively."
Saturday's game featured two separate rain delays totaling one hour, 38 minutes.
Rain began to fall heavily during Taveras' at-bat with one out in the fifth. The first delay occurred after Taveras cleared the wall in right for a 1-0 Cardinals lead.
The Giants had a chance to get on the board in the sixth. With men on the corners and two outs, Michael Morse struck out swinging to end the inning.
St. Louis pitcher Sam Freeman tossed a scoreless seventh following the second delay of the contest.
The Cardinals scored a run off George Kontos in the bottom half of the frame. Allen Craig led off with a single, stole second and raced home on Jhonny Peralta's double to left.
Pat Neshek tossed a scoreless eighth and Trevor Rosenthal pitched a perfect ninth to secure his 16th save of the season.
Taveras was hitting a team-best .325 in 49 games with Memphis and totaled
seven homers and 40 RBI ... Giants catcher Buster Posey missed his third
straight game with tightness in his lower back.
The 150th series meeting between Lafayette and Lehigh was held at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, but Lafayette's Ross Scheuerman was ready for Broadway on Saturday.
Kasey Kahne will continue to drive for Hendrick Motorsports through the 2018 Sprint Cup season, signing a three-year contract extension on Thursday.
The Cleveland Browns activated wide receiver Josh Gordon on Saturday, a day before he is set to make his season debut against Atlanta.
The Chicago White Sox have reportedly agreed to a two-year contract with first baseman Adam LaRoche on Friday.
The Orlando Magic revealed on Friday that rookie forward Aaron Gordon underwent successful surgery on a broken toe.
Edmonton Oilers forward Benoit Pouliot is out indefinitely after suffering a broken foot in Friday's game against the New Jersey Devils, the team announced during the second intermission.

The Politico Is Pretty Much Just Making Stuff Up Now
It's about Sarah Palin, so that makes it cool I guess.
Consider this headline: "Iowa Republicans wince at Sarah Palin's $100K speaking fee"
The Politico story starts...
A conservative Iowa groups effort to lure Sarah Palin to its banquet next month has had an unintended effect: Rather than exciting conservatives about the prospect of a visit from the former Alaska governor, the groups plan to raise a six-figure sum to bring her to the state has GOP activists recoiling at the thought of paying to land a politician's speaking appearance.
Then way down on page 2, in the 24th paragraph of the article we find this little nugget.
There is no indication that the former governor has requested a fee or that her decision whether to attend is being influenced by whether shell be paid.
Hello? What's that again? You spend 23 paragraphs telling us how odd it is for a candidate or prospective candidate to charge for an appearance, how some people are put off by this highway robbery and then you get around to mentioning, Palin never asked for the money and there's no reason to believe it will impact her decision to show up?
Jayson Blair emails to say, "Dude, have some integrity".
Can we start doing posts about how writers for certain online publications might be engaged in illicit behavior? Maybe we could fill up the post with quotes from people about how disappointed they are that some political reporters are having, say, intimate relations with, oh I don't know, farm animals. Then after a few hundred words of this I'll drop in something like, "Of course, there's no evidence any of this happening".
Hey Politico, would that make it ok?
Here's a hint...no it wouldn't.
But I'm not talking about making up stories about Sarah Palin so a whole different set of rules apply. You know, the rules that require you don't make stuff up and hit 'publish'.
Let me admit something...I'm agnostic at best on Palin but if the leftists keep acting like she's Holy Water and they are vampires, I'm gonna have to rethink my position.
See what I did there with the "gonna" and not "going to"...I can fit in.
To be clear...she did not ask for the fee according to her people.
It seems some folks wanted to bring her to their event and have heard her fee is 100K. Well, that's apparently for her speaking gigs, like the one in China. He political efforts are separate and funded by her PAC.
But then "Palin Speaks For Free To Conservatives" isn't exactly an earth shattering scoop.
I don't know how much Jonathan Martin makes but if I were his boss I'd wince every time I signed his check. Unless they want to pay for fiction.

High HIV rates in the Bahamas blamed on homophobia
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
I'm sure this is true. I lived in St Lucia, where 'homosexuality' is illegal and gay men are therefore scared to present for treatment at an HIV clinic.
Troll alert – Ignore the Troll
This will be deleted soon.
If, as the article states, 14% of all HIV infection is among gay or bi males then simple math tells us that 86% of HIV patients are straight. That's the number that the good bishop should be launching his tirade against.
Boring troll alert. Ignore.
Actually, this idiot is completely wrong. If one were to pick a million gay people and a million straight people from anywhere on earth and randomly, then the count of those who would be HIV+ would be preponderantly much higher in the straight sample of people than in the gay sample. Worldwide Aids/HIV is a disease of the straight community – especially in Africa and also almost everywhere else except the North Americas and some European countries. In the N. Americas and Europe the rates of infection are much higher amongst heterosexuals than amongst gay people so even in those place it will not be long before the position, vis-a-vis numbers in each community infected, is reversed and the heterosexual becomes higher and then stratospheric unless heteros change their habit of unprotected sexual activity.
"Actually, this idiot is completely wrong."
Of course he's wrong – its Keith :) Keith is ex-gay, so no surprise there! He's desperate to cling to this house-of-cards dogma. And from some of his posts not only is he a complete idiot, he's clearly an alcoholic (something to dull the pain of thinking about anal sex as much as he does, I suppose)
Ignore him and report. His stupidity will be deleted and consigned to the bin where it should go.
Fruitloops don't like fact.
The real story, http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8674401787208020885
Keith is right why do you people hate so much
Ex-gay = hates himself.
Simple really.
Only someone with the name "troll" could possible side with that diseased animal Keith. Very brave of you not to use your own name too.
Of course they're related.
If young gay/bisexual men are being regularly discriminated against and attacked for their sexual orientation then naturally they will be less confident of going to a sexual health clinic or seeking help.
Many countries need to advance into the 21st century and accept that homosexuality is very much alive and not likely to disappear with snide comments and willing blindness.
Indeed. And now they finally have worked that one out what are they going to do about it?
Talk is one thing but it doesn't save lifes, action does.

Archibald Barnes remembers the first time he made it onto the field as a Vanderbilt football player, as a redshirt freshman in 2009. It wasn't on offense, where he starred as a quarterback in his senior season of high school. It wasn't on defense, where he has emerged as a consistent starter at outside linebacker this year. It was on special teams.

Phenomenex Adds Two New Phases to Chiral Column Line
Phenomenex Inc., a global leader in the manufacture of separation science consumables, introduces two new polysaccharide-based Lux® Columns for HPLC/SFC chiral separations. This brings the company's total to five unique Lux phases, which together form a set with a wide range of selectivity to resolve 92 percent of enantiomers. The new Lux Cellulose-4 is a novel cellulose tris (4-chloro-3-methylephenylcarbamate) phase and the Lux Cellulose-3 uses cellulose tris (4-methylbenzoate) as the selector. Both new columns deliver high efficiency and loading capacity and are pressure-stable up to 300 bar.
Phenomenex has designed a chiral method development wall poster to help guide users through simple screening protocols, and customers can create their own three-, four- or five-phase screening kits. Phenomenex also offers HPLC and SFC chiral screening and separation services. After resolving the chiral compound, Phenomenex provides a report detailing the optimal phase and method conditions to the service customer.
"We are committed to developing and introducing innovations for the growing chiral market," explained Kari Carlson, brand manager for Phenomenex. "Resolving chiral compounds is relatively difficult and column selection can be complicated. Our Lux family of complementary phases dramatically increases the success rate."
The FDA mandates that enantiomers of all chiral drugs in development be screened separately on their pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties. A chiral compound's enantiomers may have different pharmacological effects in biological systems. Yet chiral molecules are often difficult to separate and identify using traditional chromatography tools. The identification of chiral molecules is also important in toxicology studies, flavor and fragrance analysis and environmental applications such as pesticide analysis.
Lux columns are offered in 3µm and 5µm particle sizes, packed for analytical-scale use or AXIATM-packed for preparative applications. 20 µm bulk media is also available up to the kilogram scale.
Phenomenex is a global technology leader committed to developing novel separation, purification and analytical chemistry solutions for the life sciences and related industries. Phenomenex's core technologies include products for liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, sample preparation, bulk purification chromatographic media, and chromatography accessories and equipment.

By Rick Warren
— May 21, 2014
"The Lord is my light and my salvation. I will fear no one." (Psalm 27:1 GNT)
I love the way my wife Kay watches horror movies. If something like Alien comes on television, she turns on every light in the room and sometimes pulls up the comforter to cover her eyes. Would she watch a horror movie in the total dark? Absolutely not. Many of you won't, either, because light helps you see things more clearly.
David says in Psalm 27:1, "The Lord is my light and my salvation. I will fear no one" (GNT). God is described in two ways: as light and as salvation.
Yet many Christians live their lives in fear of rejection, completely ignoring the fact that if God is our salvation, then we have nothing to fear — not even losing the approval of those around us.
Living for the approval of others is a miserable way to live. It will cripple your life.
But God is your light and salvation!
Light does three things: It illuminates and lets you see things more clearly. It protects and provides a source of security. And, it energizes you.
David is saying in Psalm 27 that his relationship with God has the same three effects as light, so he's not going to be afraid. Do you have a relationship with God like that? If you don't, you're probably susceptible to the fear of rejection.
To overcome the fear of rejection, you have to realize that the Lord is your light and salvation, not anyone else. Don't look for anybody else to brighten up your day. Don't look for anybody else to save your life. The Lord is your light and salvation. Don't be afraid!
What does God save you from? Psalm 119:39-42 says, "Save me from the insults I fear ... I want to obey Your commands ... Show me how much you love me, Lord, and save me according to your promise. Then I can answer those who insult me."
Here's the thing: There is no fear in love. When you understand how deeply God loves you, it will simplify your life. It will illuminate, protect, and energize you. Bask in the light of God's love. Let it save you from a lifetime of fear.
Talk About It

Would you like to become all God intended you to be? God is in the business of changing lives and He wants to transform you into the person He created you to be-with more love, more faith, and an eternal purpose.

These are sermons you'll want to listen to more than once and to share with your friends and family members.
The world needs radical believers who go back to the Bible and do what God intended for Christians to do in the first place. In this message series, Pastor Rick goes to the Bible to show you how to have radical gratitude so that you can develop deep spiritual roots.
