Santa Claus Parade: Sick Kids patients get ride of a lifetime
Nico Orfeo, 10, has a rare genetic condition. He's one of three Sick Kids patients who were chosen to ride the Swarovski Swan Lake float.
Nico Orfeo loves everything about Christmas — the presents, Santa Claus, reindeer, elves, carols, stockings, the presents.
Did I mention the presents?
So when the 10-year-old got the chance to ride a float with three other Sick Kids Hospital patients at this Sunday's Santa Claus Parade, it was the gift of a lifetime.
"It's the best," said the outgoing, rambunctious boy with a grin, pointing to the Swarovski Swan Lake float at a recent media event inside the parade warehouse.
Nico has a genetic disorder so rare that doctors do not yet have a name for it. The Star reported in April that he has undergone 15 surgeries to his brain, spine and heart, but his spirit remains unstoppable.
He was born with "dysmorphic" features and had to undergo several surgeries within his first year of life — one to close a hole in his heart and another to drain hydrocephalic fluid from his brain.
At age 10, he is closer in mental age to his brother Max, two years his junior. His parents are now awaiting the results of a U.S.-based program they hope will diagnose his rare disorder.
His mother, Colette Orfeo, said her son is thrilled to be a part of the parade, and thanked Swarovski for giving Nico the opportunity to ride their float.
"It isn't something that money can buy. For him to be included in that is really, really special and we're very grateful."
Swarovski donated the three spots on the float to SickKids "patient ambassadors." The crystal company is also raising money for the hospital through its "Moments to Give" campaign.
The parade warehouse was packed with kids the day of the media event, but Orfeo, with his warm personality and friendly smile, stood out.
Asked why the Swarovski parade float was the best, he replied, "It's really big," as if the answer was obvious. He also seemed to like a float that features several giant Smurfs.
Nico said he was really excited to meet Santa again and to wave to all the people watching him on the float.
"I'll make sure I wave for you," he told a Star reporter. "Do you want me to tell the Smurfs to wave for you too?"
The 109th annual Santa Claus Parade begins at 12:30 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 17 at Bloor St. at Christie St. For a full list of floats and the parade route, go to http://thesantaclausparade.com.
Speedy parade lovers can also still sign up for the 5K Holly Jolly Fun Run, which starts at noon Sunday at Bloor St., east of Bathurst St.

In the meantime, we wanted to provide advance notice of the change. As Navidea, we will continue to focus our efforts on the approval and commercialization of Lymphoseek ® and on our development efforts surrounding RIGScan™. In addition, we plan to actively move forward with other pipeline development opportunities, including the in-licensing or acquisition of other promising agents."

News in Brief
Charters to Improve Accessibility for Special-Needs Students
The U.S. Department of Education's office for civil rights has entered into an agreement with the South Carolina Public Charter District to make its Internet-based schools accessible to students and parents with disabilities, particularly those with visual impairments.
The district enrolls about 14,000 students in all, 9,000 of whom are in seven Internet-based schools.
Last spring, the civil rights office started investigating online classes at the district, said Wayne Brazell, its superintendent. It found that the Web-based courses lacked alternative-text attributes on buttons, especially on video controls; synchronized captioning; accessible PDFs; and animations that were not fully labeled. Additionally, some materials provided by third-party vendors were inaccessible, according to the investigation. The department said in a report that those issues prevent people with impairments from using the websites in the same way as people without disabilities.
As a result of the OCR findings, the charter district has agreed to create a Web-accessibility committee that will work with the schools to ensure access, develop and put in place a detailed accessibility plan, regularly complete compliance reports, and provide training on accessible Web design. The full agreement includes all the actions the district has agreed to take.
Mr. Brazell said the interactions with the department have been cooperative. The investigation was not driven by complaints from parents or students, he said, but reflect a current push toward OCR investigation of Web accessibility.

Bring back Kovy
He never wanted to leave, he always said he would like to finish his career here, he is still a very good hockey player, he would'nt cost much, he would certainly help the power play, it would give time to our young to take their experience in the minors, learn to be mens. Bring back Kovy, Eller would benefit of the experience, like others too. With Eller on a third line it would'nt hurt at all, even though he use to play once every three games, maybe that would change. It's only a suggestion:)
He sucked in Ottawa, he sucked in Pittsburg. and he sucked in the KHL. 1 goal 5 assists in 22 games |
Well, here's what happened last season: http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/l...064212012.html
...I think it's safe to say he's no longer an NHL caliber player. I'd be interested to see him go into coaching. |
very bad thread for a terribad player
First time i heard about that.
This thead pops up every few weeks.
He's finished as an NHLer.
Kovalev had a bad year in the KHL because he was recovering from an injury and couldn't get his beat going starting mid-season. It is probable he'd do better if he started at the same time as everybody. |
Hey we could bring back Guy Lafleur as well, he was amazing for us!
Ya kovalev hasn't been a good player for a few years, 5 is obviously a bit of a slight exaggeration He's obviously not the same player and he doesn't have the legs anymore...you can stickhandle around an army but if players can just catch back up on the backcheck then whats the point? He's done as an NHLer but he can definitely be an asset to any organization given his fitness levels and awkward but creative practice/drills |
If he would agree to strictly specialise in being a powerplay/shootout specialist, I'd give him a year contract for $1M or something.
We had a 5-12 shootout record last season, we need major help in that department. Switch that around to 12-5 and we'd have been 5 to 8 spots higher in the Eastern standings. |
For those wanting Kovalev back, I would suggest a ct scan to determine if a tumor is pressing on the cognitive center of your brain. |
I'd prefer to bring back Ak46
PP and shootout specialist give him a tryout and if he can skate and keep up 1 year 1 mil DO IT.
With the amount of one goal games we lost and the shootout losses, turn our PP to 15th and shootout record to average and we were in the playoffs. He's a big part of the solution to our two biggest weaknesses. Markov to Kovy cross ice pass baby. |
I'd rather another Gomez at $7M than Kovalev at $500K. **** him.
Joe Juneau!!!!
Seriously though, let's get up north and bring Mr.Juneau back. |
In before the lock!
What a terrible idea. He liked playing in Montreal qualifies him having a lifelong contract? I don't think so. |
Ouch my hand!! Carbonneau is a racist! Oh no I have vertigo! Ahhh I need to save the Kostitsyn brothers! I need to go for a walk to clear my head down at the old port... Every ****ing year there was some big drama with this guy. So glad to be rid of him and his baggage. Worse than my ex. |
Haters gon hate. I don't see the harm in a try out or how anyone could be against one. It can potentially make us better.

Joba Chamberlain Rumors
Upside Hunting: Joba Chamberlain
With Burke Badenhop off the market on a one-year deal with the Reds, few arms on the free agent market figure to land big league deals. Many of the remaining names are coming off poor seasons or injuries and will therefore end up signing minor league deals. While Francisco Rodriguez and Rafael Soriano will garner much of the attention and the chatter, in my eyes, Joba Chamberlain could be the best remaining option on the open market.
Entering just his age-29 season, Chamberlain was one of the youngest free agents available even at the beginning of the offseason, and he's the youngest notable name on the relief market as a whole at this point. Not only that, but Chamberlain is coming off a quietly strong season in his lone year with the Tigers.
In 63 innings, Chamberlain posted a 3.57 ERA with 8.4 K/9, 3.4 BB/9 and a 53.2 percent ground-ball rate. He wilted down the stretch, yielding a 4.97 ERA following the All-Star break, but much of that is attributable to a nearly seven percent dip in his strand rate. Chamberlain stranded runners at a 75.7 percent clip in the first half — which compares favorably to his career mark of 74.6 percent — but that number dropped to 69.1 percent. Should that mark trend back toward Chamberlain's career level with all else remaining more or less equal, Chamberlain could turn in some excellent results in 2015.
Also worth considering is that the Tigers ranked 28th among 30 Major League teams in both Defensive Runs Saved and Ultimate Zone Rating, and they ranked 29th of 30 in in defensive efficiency. By virtually any defensive metric imaginable, Chamberlain was pitching with one of baseball's least talented groups supporting him — a likely reason for the discrepancy between his 3.57 ERA and his stronger marks in FIP (3.16), xFIP (3.35) and SIERA (3.13).
Chamberlain did lose a bit of life on his fastball, dipping from an average of 94.7 mph to 93.5 mph, but that mark still rates as above average, and he offset the slight drop in velocity by throwing more curveballs — a pitch that graded out as his best, according to Fangraphs' pitch values.
Some may point to his shaky 2013 season as a reason to shy away from the former top prospect, but it should be remembered that Chamberlain battled an oblique strain that year as he attempted to complete his first full season following Tommy John surgery. Control was his main problem in 2013 (5.6 BB/9), but he's never battled that issue much in any other season spent pitching in relief.
Last offseason, Chamberlain signed a one-year, $3MM contract with the Tigers in mid-December. He's undoubtedly coming off a better season this time around, but Chamberlain has reportedly been selective about his destination, rejecting offers from a few teams for which he did not want to play, leaving him afloat on the open market as one of the last remaining candidates for a big league deal. If another one-year deal is in the offing, or even a two-year pact at a reasonable price, Chamberlain could be a significant boost to a contender's bullpen at a cost that hardly seems prohibitive.
AL Central Notes: Tigers, Albers, Giambi, Gwynn
Tigers GM Dave Dombrowski addressed reporters yesterday and touched on a number of Hot Stove related topics. Via James Schmehl of MLive.com (All Twitter links), Dombrowski again stated that he's happy with his current group of starters and rejected the idea of a serious pursuit of James Shields. Dombrowski did say he's open to adding another arm, but it would come in the form of a non-roster invite, if it happens at all. As for free agents Phil Coke and Joba Chamberlain, both of whom posted sub-4.00 ERAs out of the Detroit bullpen last year, there's been no serious discussions with either of them, and neither is likely to return to the team in 2015.
Here are a few more notes out of the much-improved AL Central as Spring Traning nears…
- The Tigers will be among the teams in attendance to watch righty Matt Albers throw next week, Anthony Fenech of the Detroit Free Press tweets. Shoulder problems limited the big righty to 10 innings of work in 2014, but he's been quite effective dating back to 2012, posting a combined 2.63 ERA in 133 1/3 frames. Albers averaged 5.9 K/9 and 3.2 BB/9 in that time, registering an exceptional 59.4 percent ground-ball rate as well.
- The Indians have a standing offer to Jason Giambi to work for the team in a non-playing capacity, Jon Heyman of CBS Sports tweeted earlier this week. It's unclear exactly what role Giambi would fill, but he's beloved in the Cleveland clubhouse and organization after playing there the past two seasons, so it's likely that the players would be receptive to such an idea. Giambi, 44, has batted a combined .171/.246/.346 with 11 homers in 286 plate appearances for Cleveland since signing there prior to the 2013 campaign.
- Tony Gwynn Jr.'s representatives at John Boggs and Associates are trying to sell the Twins on his defensive prowess in center field, but the team isn't biting at this time, tweets 1500 ESPN's Darren Wolfson. Minnesota's outfield defense does figure to be a problem in 2015, but they'll go with a mix of Oswaldo Arcia, Aaron Hicks, Torii Hunter and Jordan Schafer to open the year. I'd imagine Gwynn could be stashed at Triple-A, making him a reasonable add, although Byron Buxton figures to occupy center field at Triple-A sometime in 2015 as well, so the Twins may simply prefer not to bring in an outside veteran. It's been a quiet offseason for Gwynn, though this is the second time this month we've heard some rumblings about the 32-year-old defensive standout.

Bullpen Notes: Cotts, Mujica, Brewers, Papelbon, K-Rod
Recent Brewers signee Neal Cotts tells Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel that he came close to hanging up his spikes before the Rangers offered him a deal for the 2013 season. After two fairly productive seasons in Texas, Cotts chose Milwaukee in part due to proximity to his home in Chicago.
Here are some notes on still-active bullpen situations around the game:
- The Red Sox have indicated a willingness over the last few days to deal righty Edward Mujica, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports reports on Twitter. Mujica, 30, signed a two-year deal to head to Boston last year after a strong 2013 with the Cardinals, but struggled mightily out of the gate. He rebounded with a big second half, however, throwing 25 1/3 innings of 1.78 ERA ball over the second half. All said, Mujica ended the year having allowed 3.90 earned per nine and having compiled a 3.70 FIP that was nearly identical to his fielding-independent mark from the season prior.
- After adding Cotts, the Brewers will keep looking for a veteran, late-inning arm, potentially one with closing experience, assistant GM Gord Ash tells Haudricourt. The club is "juggling a lot of balls right now," says Ash, who added that talks with the Phillies on Jonathan Papelbon are not dead even if nothing is imminent. Ash also indicated that the team was considering former closer Francisco Rodriguez, but noted that the club is not in on Rafael Soriano or Joba Chamberlain. Milwaukee also seems to have its eye out for a bargain, with Ash noting that the club is open to doing a minor league deal at any time.
- A few of the other names still on the market do have some interest even though they have yet to ink a contract, according to SB Nation's Chris Cotillo (Twitter links). After a solid 2014, southpaw Joe Beimel has interest from three clubs, including the incumbent Mariners, while fellow lefty Joe Thatcher has drawn attention from a handful of teams.
Quick Hits: Joba, Beachy, Eovaldi, Clippard
Rather than throwing touchdowns for the Patriots, could Tom Brady have instead had a career throwing out baserunners for the Expos? MLB.com's Joe Frisaro looks back at how Montreal selected Brady (then a catcher at Serra High School) in the 18th round of the 1995 draft, even though it was widely known that Brady was going to play football at Michigan. "I think he would have been a pro," said scout John Hughes, who evaluated Brady for the Expos. "He had all the intangibles. He could throw, left-handed power. There is no reason to think this guy couldn't have been a big league catcher." While every New England sports fan breathes a sigh of relief that Brady stuck to the gridiron, here are some more notes from around baseball…
- Joba Chamberlain has rejected multiple offers because he simply didn't want to pitch for the teams that offered him those deals, FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal reports. He's considering a one-year deal with a modest base salary and incentives, as his hopes for a two-year contract have likely gone by the wayside. There is still some question about Chamberlain's makeup amongst league executives, and one exec told Rosenthal that the Tigers' lack of interest in re-signing Chamberlain "alarmed him" given Detroit's need for bullpen help.
- Though Brandon Beachy was reportedly considering multiple offers and was thought to be close to signing a new contract earlier this month, his agent Rob Martin tells Ken Rosenthal (all Twitter links) that the right-hander will wait a bit longer. "Brandon has decided not to sign a contract at this time. With each day his arm is getting stronger and he's feeling even more confident about his progress," Martin said. "Thus, he is going to continue with his throwing program and make a decision closer to Spring Training."
- The Marlins were linked to Wade Miley earlier this winter, and now ESPN's Buster Olney (Insider subscription required) reports that the Marlins thought they were in agreement with the Diamondbacks on a Miley-for-Nathan Eovaldi trade. Arizona pulled out of the deal, however, and Miami instead dealt Eovaldi to the Yankees while the D'Backs sent Miley to the Red Sox.
- Also from Olney, there is some speculation in rival front offices that the Nationals' trade of Tyler Clippard might've been motivated by more than just a desire to move salary, especially since Washington just signed Casey Janssen to a healthy contract. It's possible the Nats could see "red flags" about Clippard's future production that aren't obvious to most observers, especially given that Clippard had another strong season in 2014.

Central Notes: White Sox, Royals, V-Mart
Rebuilding is no longer a word the White Sox want to be associated with, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports. "We sit here on the one hand realizing that we have the prime of Chris Sale's career ahead of us, the prime of Jose Abreu's career ahead of us and wanting to make sure we're in a position to capitalize and win within that window," Hahn said. "We want to win, we want to win again quickly and we want to win again repeatedly in the coming years. … We still have work to do to continue that process." At the same time, Hahn emphasized today that the team has to avoid the "dangerous allure to wanting to make a splash," as Paul Sullivan of the Chicago Tribune reports in the course of an interesting look at the team's options.
Here's the latest from the AL Central after a busy news day:
- The White Sox are currently focused on acquiring a right-handed starter, bullpen additions, and a left-handed hitter, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports reports on Twitter. While the club has in the past looked into dealing for backstops such as Jason Castro of the Astros and Yasmani Grandal of the Padres, that does not appear to be the priority at present, per Rosenthal. Nevertheless, Bruce Levine of 670thescore.com indicates on Twitter that the team does have present interest in Castro.
- Hahn said today that Chicago is interested in multiple relief acquisitions, as MLB.com's Phil Rogers reports. "We don't feel the need to go out and get a so-called proven closer," said Hahn. "We certainly want to have multiple upgrades, and if some of those upgrades give us viable back-end options, that's great."
- Word is that the Royals will meet with the representatives of lefty Brett Anderson this week, Andy McCullough of the Kansas City Star reports on Twitter. GM Dayton Moore declined to confirm or deny that or any other meetings. I picked Anderson to go to Kansas City in the MLBTR free agent prediction contest, and think he makes sense for a club that has some added cash to spend on an upside play.
- The Royals have told Raul Ibanez that they would be interested in employing him in a non-playing capacity, tweets McCullough. Ibanez, of course, is in the hunt for the Rays' open managerial position, and perhaps it is still to early to rule out a return to an active roster as well.
- Victor Martinez is at the top of the Tigers' list of priorities, writes Paul Hagen of MLB.com, as GM Dave Dombrowski made clear that the team will make every effort to re-sign the DH. The team is still interested in outgoing free agents Max Scherzer and Joba Chamberlain, per Dombrowski, but he said the club is sitting back while both assess their markets.

Tigers Notes: Price, Dombrowski, Newhan
To the surprise of no one, star free agents Max Scherzer and Victor Martinez turned down qualifying offers from the Tigers yesterday. Re-signing Martinez seems to be a priority for GM Dave Dombrowski. More on the Tigers…
- The door is not closed on a new deal with free agent reliever Joba Chamberlain, says Dombrowski, but it's not a priority right now.
- Dombrowski said he has not talked about an extension with lefty David Price, according to a tweet from Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports. Dombrowski said he knows both sides will want to see free agent prices first. That's a reference to the current free agent class, says Rosenthal. Price is eligible for free agency after the 2015 season.
- Dombrowski has four prominent starting pitchers under control for 2015 in Price, Justin Verlander, Rick Porcello, and Anibal Sanchez. According to Rosenthal, the GM says he is happy with his starters and not looking to move anyone, but will always listen as he has in the past.
- The Tigers announced they have named former big leaguer David Newhan assistant hitting coach to Wally Joyner, replacing the departed Darnell Coles.
AL Notes: Rangers, Tigers, Red Sox
It would make sense for the Rangers to sign free agent Kendrys Morales, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News writes. With injuries to Prince Fielder and Matt Harrison, the Rangers should be able to recoup enough from their insurance policies that they have money to sign Morales. Also, Grant argues that Morales could end up being worth more to the Rangers than the No. 30 overall draft pick they would lose if they signed him prior to the draft. Even if the Rangers' season fell apart, they could trade Morales later. And by signing Morales now, the Rangers would avoid having to bid against others once the draft passed. Here are more notes from the American League.
- The Rangers' injuries may have already turned their season into "a lost cause," Jeff Sullivan writes for Fangraphs' series at FOX Sports. While it's easy to overstate the impact of one injury, the Rangers have had so many injuries to so many important players that the impact is clearly significant. Signing Morales would seem to make sense for the Rangers, but they could decide that the injuries have already hurt so much that signing him isn't worth it right now, particularly given the draft-pick issue.
- The Tigers will likely try to re-sign Victor Martinez this offseason, and they also could try to re-sign Joba Chamberlain if he continues to contribute, Chris Iott of MLive.com writes. Max Scherzer, of course, is a top free agent and is likely to sign elsewhere.
- It's too early in the season for GM Ben Cherington to be able to use the trade market to effectively upgrade a Red Sox squad that has lost ten straight games, Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald writes. Nonetheless, Cherington says, "At some point if production is not there, you have to think about changes." He continues, "We have to find ways to improve across the board. Some of that is going to happen just naturally with the guys we have here."

AL Notes: Rays, Garza, Ibanez, Astros
On this date in 1980, the Yankees made Dave Winfield the highest-paid athlete in all of sports with a ten-year, $16MM contract. In the intervening four decades, a ten-year MLB contract is now worth something in the neighborhood of $240MM (Robinson Cano and Albert Pujols) to $275MM (Alex Rodriguez). Meanwhile, $16MM will only buy you one year of Hiroki Kuroda or two years of Marlon Byrd this offseason, per MLBTR's Transaction Tracker. As you rush out and buy your child a bat, a glove, and every baseball instructional video ever made, here's today's American League news and notes:
- The Rays feel justified in giving James Loney the most lucrative free agent contract during Andrew Friedman's tenure, reports Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times. The Rays value Loney's defense, quality at-bats, clubhouse presence, and his left-handed bat which balances a predominantly right-handed lineup.
- Also from Topkin's article, the Rays will now turn their attention to adding bench and bullpen pieces with catcher Jose Lobaton and outfielder Matt Joyce as possible trade chips.
- The market for Matt Garza is strong because of his 2013 season, AL East pedigree, and not being attached to draft pick compensation, tweets CBSSports.com's Jon Heyman.
- The Angels believe they can sign both Garza and Raul Ibanez and still fall below the $189MM luxury tax threshold, writes FOXSports.com's Ken Rosenthal. Rosenthal notes the Angels' interest in Ibanez stems from his career slash line of .349/.407/.522 in 327 plate appearances at Angel Stadium.
- Also from Rosenthal, the Astros are still in the market for a first baseman and could turn to the Nationals' Tyler Moore.
- Despite the signing of Joba Chamberlain, the Tigers' preference is to have Bruce Rondon set up closer Joe Nathan, according to John Lowe of the Detroit Free Press.
- The Royals are to be commended not just for signing Omar Infante away from the Yankees, but also strengthening their ballclub immediately at a reasonable cost, opines Fangraphs' Jeff Sullivan.

Dombrowski, Chamberlain Discuss Signing
General manager Dave Dombrowski has a new-look bullpen heading into the 2014 season, with Joe Nathan serving as the closer, Ian Krol in place of Drew Smyly (who will move to the rotation in place of the recently traded Doug Fister) and newcomer Joba Chamberlain joining on a one-year, $2.5MM deal.
Despite the fact that Chamberlain's $2.5MM guarantee is less than the $4MM option Detroit declined on Jose Veras and the fact that the team saved money in the Fister and Prince Fielder trades, Dombrowski maintains that his moves haven't been about cutting payroll. When asked about the perception that his team is slashing payroll on today's conference call, he replied:
"The reality is it's not true. We have a very hefty payroll. We'll be one of the highest payrolls in Major League Baseball. We'll continue to be that, and our payroll, actually, as of this year is higher than it was last year."
Asked then if the decision came down to the fact that the Tigers simply like Chamberlain better than Veras, Dombrowski was frank:
"Yes we do, and no offense to Jose Veras because he's a solid guy and we liked him. We had an opportunity to bring him back. We like Joba. … We had our choice of a lot of guys who are still out there for one-year deals — maybe even a two-year deal in a couple different cases. I'm not talking about closer guys. We like Joba. We've liked him in the past. Our scouts that haved liked him. We realized that sometimes coming off Tommy John, it takes awhile to come back. … The ability is still there. The velocity is still there. … We like what he brings to our bullpen, so the answer to that is yes."
Though it's a new-look bullpen for Detroit, some familiar faces will be returning for Tigers fans, and one of those faces is familiar to Chamberlain as well. I asked Dombrowski and Chamberlain if either talked with left-hander Phil Coke — Chamberlains' former teammate with the Yankees — before making the decision. Dombrowski said that while he didn't ask Coke what Chamberlain is like in the clubhouse, the club did a lot of research and spoke with a lot of people about Chamberlain before making the offer. Asked about his former teammate, Chamberlain replied:
"I didn't have the chance to talk to Phil, but every time that Detroit came to New York or I was in Detroit, we'd always talk to Phil. … Phil is a great man. He's a character, and we had some good times in New York, and I'm looking forward to being back with him and sharing some new memories in Detroit, and definitely getting some more stories from Phil. He's a guy that'll keep you entertained. … I'm looking forward to seeing him, giving him a big hug and being his teammate again."
Though he had other offers, Chamberlain called Detroit "an incredible fit," and a "fantastic organization from top to bottom." He added that he was excited to come to Detroit after talking with new manager Brad Ausmus, whom he watched as a player for a number of years.
"There was a lot of interest," said agent Jim Murray of Excel Sports Management. "There were a lot of opportunities out there for potentially even more dollars. However, the money wasn't a driving factor in this. This is more about opportunity. This is more about Joba feeling comfortable."
Detroit designated Danny Worth for assignment in order to clear a 40-man roster spot — a move that Dombrowski acknowledged was influenced by the addition of Steve Lombardozzi in the Doug Fister trade. Though they've been busy to this point, it could be a low-key offseason the rest of the way for Detroit.
"No, we're pretty well set at this point," Dombrowski said when asked if he'd continue shopping for more pieces. "I think this basically sets us up as we want to go forward. Now, there are a lot of players out there. Who knows what happens as the winter progresses? Who knows what the next phone call brings since we're still a couple months away from Spring Training? But as far as us being aggressive and trying to sign somebody and bring them on board, this would be the last move we're looking to make."
Tigers Sign Joba Chamberlain
11:56am: Chamberlain's deal includes $500K in performance bonuses based on games pitched that would bring his salary up to $3MM, tweets Jason Beck of MLB.com.
10:35am: Having already added Joe Nathan to solidify the ninth inning, the Tigers made an upside play by adding right-hander Joba Chamberlain to the mix. The Tigers today officially announced the signing of Chamberlain to a one-year deal that is reportedly worth $2.5MM plus incentives. Chamberlain is represented by Jim Murray of Excel Sports Management.
The 28-year-old former top prospect struggled through his worst season (in terms of ERA) as a Major Leaguer in 2013, posting a 4.93 ERA with 8.1 K/9, 5.6 BB/9 and a 41.5 percent ground-ball rate in 42 innings for the Yankees. Chamberlain was significantly better away from Yankee Stadium, posting a 3.54 ERA on the road compared to a 6.23 mark at home in a roughly equal sample size. Chamberlain's velocity remained strong in his first full season back from 2011 Tommy John surgery, as he averaged a healthy 94.7 mph on his fastball.
Chamberlain will join a new-look Tigers bullpen that features active saves leader Joe Nathan in the ninth inning. Joaquin Benoit is on the free agent market but doesn't appear likely to return, and left-hander Drew Smyly figures to shift from the 'pen into the rotation following the offseason trade of Doug Fister to the Nationals. Left-hander Ian Krol, acquired in the Fister deal, should join Nathan and Chamberlain as new additions.
Further additions seem unlikely, as GM Dave Dombrowski told Lynn Henning of the Detroit News on Thursday that his offseason shopping was mostly done, save for one bullpen arm that "won't be a biggie" (Twitter link).
Tim Brown of Yahoo Sports first tweeted that the Tigers were a possible landing spot for Chamberlain. ESPN's Buster Olney reported (via Twitter) that the Tigers' interest was "serious," and Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports reported that a one-year agreement was in place (Twitter link). Olney then reported news of the $2.5MM guarantee plus incentives (on Twitter).

Oh Those Rumors

Comments (0)
Usually, NHL trade rumors aren't worth their salt. And while they offer little substance, they're tasty enough to pass around. Fans eat 'em up. Get this: leading scorer Maxim Afinogenov and goalie Martin Biron to the St. Louis Blues for the No. 1 overall selection. Or this: unreliable-but-potent winger Thomas Vanek to the Calgary Flames for defenseman Jordan Leopold. Sabres General Manager Darcy Regier denied both rumors, but admitted this time of year can be fun. "People on the outside seem to have more fun than the people on the inside," Regier said. "You hear some real beauties out there. And some deals that actually get done are never talked about."read on

Russell Brand and Katy Perry Kissing Pictures at London Premiere of Arthur 2011-04-19 12:08:11
Russell Brand Has Kisses For Wife Katy Perry at His UK Arthur Premiere
A Dolce & Gabbana-clad Russell Brand had lots of love to share this afternoon at the UK premiere of Arthur in London. His wife, Katy Perry, was on hand for the red carpet, and her sparkly nude gown was evidently a hit with Russell. He threw his arms around her to give her a big kiss before temporarily leaving her side in order to pose with his costars Greta Gerwig and Helen Mirren, who also had a sweet PDA moment with her own spouse, Taylor Hackford. One cast-mate didn't make the trek, though, as Jennifer Garner celebrated her 39th birthday back in LA. Katy is on a break from her Teenage Dream world tour, and she jetted to England after spending the weekend with other celebs at Coachella. Russell arrived in his home country a few days ago to do press for the European opening of his film, which opened in the US to relatively underwhelming results. We managed to catch up with him at a screening in NYC, where he talked all about his love for Helen and his hopes for Easter Sunday. Russell said:
- On ranking Helen on a scale of 1-10 of awesomeness: "There's no number, it's beyond Pythagoras, beyond mathematics, beyond numeracy. There's a system of signs that belongs only in the heavens — that is what I would give Helen Mirren. Astronomy cannot answer how much I love that woman."
- On his connection with Helen: "I love her very much, there's nothing but sparks there. That woman is a pyrotechnical display all in herself. I think crush is a rather glib word for the profound tidal love that swells in my stomach every time I look at that woman."
- On what he wants in his Easter basket: "I think it's bad to eat too much sugar. An apple, photograph of the queen, just more baskets, an endless Russian doll effect of baskets, a wicker tower reaching to god himself, or herself, who knows."

Blake Lively Shows Her Soderbergh Support at the Haywire Premiere
Blake Lively was decked out in Dolce & Gabbana last night for the NYC premiere of Haywire. She's not in the movie, but leads Ewan McGregor and Gina Carano were there from the cast, along with director Steven Soderbergh. The picture hits theaters tomorrow on Jan. 20, and so far the Haywire reviews are great. Justin Bartha and Elizabeth Banks also rolled through to check out the screening, and joined the festivities at the afterparty, held at Sons of Essex.
Blake and Steven will work together soon, though. It was recently announced that Blake will star in Soderbergh's The Side Effects opposite Channing Tatum and Jude Law. For now, it's Gossip Girl that's Blake's main focus, as is her relationship with Ryan Reynolds.

Both the old and new media agree on is this: If you need a story that's guaranteed to be popular, go with animals. Cute kittens, puppies, porpoises, penguins, and polar bears are all a good bet.
Given the evidence of the superiority of capitalism in achieving prosperity, isn't it astonishing we still debate its merits?
While details are still emerging about Aaron Alexis, the man responsible for killing 12 people at the Washington Navy Yard, this much is already clear. This man never should have had a security clearance that allowed him to enter the Yard. And he never should have been permitted to buy a gun.
President Obama barely noticed, but there was a horrific mass shooting at the Washington Navy Yard on Monday. In what has become a signature of this administration, a tone-deaf Obama pressed ahead with his plans to attack the tea party Republicans at an event marking five years since the financial crisis erupted.
Sen. Barbara Boxer had been appealing to my better instincts as she never had before. The Democrat from California provided a crucial vote in favor of a resolution sought by President Barack Obama to authorize the use of military force in Syria. Boxer voted for military force even though that position was highly unpopular among her constituents.
The California Legislature pointed a giant middle finger at Bay Area commuters by naming the western span of the Bay Bridge after San Francisco Chronicle columnist Willie Brown even though, as San Francisco's mayor, Brown unconscionably delayed reconstruction of the seismically challenged eastern span and helped drive the project's cost from $1.5 billion to $6.4 billion?
When Democratic Sen. Jon Tester of Montana announced last Friday that he would vote against Larry Summers' putative candidacy for Fed chairman if it came before the Senate Banking Committee, he put a dagger in Summers' Fed career before it even started. Tester would have made the fourth Democratic nay vote in the committee, and it is highly unlikely that Republicans would have taken up the slack to push through a Summers nomination.
Political support for traditional marriage seemed to evaporate in the summer of 2013. The U.S. Supreme Court did not rule that there is a constitutional right to same-sex marriage, but the homosexuals are behaving as though it did and filing lawsuits in many states to expand the court's decision, while the advocates of traditional marriage have retreated into silence.
In 2012, the federal government paid some $5 billion in direct payments to farmers of wheat, corn, barley, oats, cotton, rice, soybeans, peanuts and other crops - except the recipients cannot all be farmers. According to the Environmental Working Group, 116 of those tillers of the earth reside in San Francisco. For their farming activities, they pocketed $446,302.
Earlier this month, hell came to the tiny Christian village of Maaloula where they still speak Aramaic, the language of Jesus.
If you cobble together every major decision that President Barack Obama has had to make since he entered the Oval Office, none has been more perplexing and difficult as the decision to strike Syria for using chemical weapons on its own people.
Sen. Barack Obama snatched the 2008 democratic nomination from Sen. Hillary Clinton for many reasons, none more important than Obama's opposition to the Iraq War.
I haven't heard such enthusiastic, downright raucous applause since Texas Gov. "Oops" Perry suggested in 2009 that his state just might withdraw from the union. Unfortunately for him, the applauders weren't Texans. They were the people of the other 49 states.
In 2007, then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi led a congressional visit to Damascus, where she met with Syrian President Bashar Assad. "We came in friendship, hope, and determined that the road to Damascus is a road to peace," Pelosi famously proclaimed. She met with Assad in defiance of then-President George W. Bush and his efforts to isolate Syria for its role as a "state sponsor of terror."
I was just fine with the line in the sand. In a civilized world, there must be some line. If not chemical weapons, where?
The president's request for the authorization to use military force against the Islamic State has landed in a Congress as divided as the country.

What happened to California's death penalty? There has not been an execution since 2006, when a federal judge ruled against the state's three-drug lethal injection protocol. In 2008, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld three-drug executions. It didn't matter. Though as candidates Gov. Jerry Brown and Attorney General Kamala Harris - who both personally oppose capital punishment - promised to uphold the law, in real life they've let things slide. Fed up, two men related to murder victims have filed suit to push the state to carry out the law.

Featured news
In May 2012, Kaspersky Labs research team conducted a search prompted by the International Telecommunication Union to investigate the incidents and determine the potential threat from this new malware as it related to global sustainability and security.
Today Kaspersky Labs experts published the research that resulted from the digital forensic analysis of the hard disk images obtained from the machines attacked by Wiper.
The analysis provides insights into Wipers highly effective method of destroying computer systems, including its unique data wiping pattern and destructive behavior. Even though the search for Wiper resulted in the inadvertent discovery of Flame, Wiper itself was not discovered during the search and is still unidentified.
In the meantime, Wipers effective way of destroying machines may have encouraged copycats to create destructive malware such as Shamoon, which appeared in August 2012.
Summary findings:
- Kaspersky Lab confirms that Wiper was responsible for the attacks launched on computer systems in Western Asia in April 21 - 30, 2012.
- The analysis of the hard disk images of the computers that were destroyed by Wiper revealed a specific data wiping pattern together with a certain malware component name, which started with ~D. These findings are reminiscent of Duqu and Stuxnet, which also used filenames beginning with ~D, and were both built on the same attack platform - known as Tilded.
- Kaspersky Lab began searching for other files starting with ~D via the Kaspersky Security Network (KSN) to try and find additional files of Wiper based on the connection with the Tilded platform.
- During this process Kaspersky Lab identified a significant number of files in Western Asia named ~DEB93D.tmp. Further analysis showed this file was actually part of a different type of malware: Flame. This is how Kaspersky Lab discovered Flame.
- Despite Flame being discovered during the search for Wiper, Kaspersky Labs research team believes Wiper and Flame are two separate and distinct malicious programs.
- Although Kaspersky Lab analyzed traces of the Wiper infection, the malware is still unknown because no additional wiping incidents that followed the same pattern occurred, and no detections of the malware have appeared in Kaspersky Labs proactive protection.
- Wiper was extremely effective and could spark others to create new, copycat types of destructive malware, such as Shamoon.
Kaspersky Labs analysis of the hard disk images taken by the machines destroyed by Wiper showed that the malicious program wiped the hard disks of the targeted systems and destroyed all of the data that could be used to identify the malware.
The file system corrupted by Wiper prevented computers from rebooting and caused improper general functioning. Therefore, in every machine that was analyzed, almost nothing was left after the activation of Wiper, including the chance of recovering or restoring any data.
However, Kaspersky Labs research revealed some valuable insight including the specific wiping pattern used by the malware along with certain malware component names and, in some instances, registry keys that revealed previous file names that were wiped from the hard disk. These registry keys all pointed to filenames that began with ~D.
Unique wiping pattern
Analysis of the wiping pattern uncovered a consistent method that was used on each machine that Wiper was activated on. Wipers algorithm was designed to quickly destroy as many files as effectively as possible, which can include multiple gigabytes at a time.
About three of four targeted machines had their data completely wiped. The operation focusing on destroying the first half of the disk then systematically wiping the remaining files that are required for the system to function properly, leading to the system finally crashing.
In addition, we are aware of Wiper attacks that targeted PNF files, which would be meaningless if not related to removal of additional malware components. This was also an interesting finding, since Duqu and Stuxnet kept their main body encrypted in PNF files.
How the search for Wiper led to the discovery of Flame
Temporary files (TMP) beginning with ~D were also used by Duqu, which was built on the same attack platform as Stuxnet: the Tilded platform. Based on this clue, the research team started looking for other potentially unknown filenames related to Wiper based on the Tilded platform using KSN, which is the cloud infrastructure used by Kaspersky Lab products to report telemetry and to deliver instant protection in the forms of blacklists and heuristic rules designed to catch the newest threats.
During this process Kaspersky Labs research team found that several computers in Western Asia contained the filename ~DEB93D.tmp .This is how Kaspersky Lab discovered Flame; however, Wiper was not found using this method and is still unidentified.
Alexander Gostev, Chief Security Expert of Kaspersky Lab, said: Based on our analysis of the patterns Wiper left on examined hard disk images, there is no doubt that the malware existed and was used to attack computer systems in Western Asia in April of 2012, and probably even earlier - in December of 2011. Even though we discovered Flame during the search for Wiper, we believe that Wiper was not Flame but a separate and different type of malware. Wipers destructive behavior combined with the filenames that were left on wiped systems strongly resembles a program that used the Tilded platform. Flames modular architecture was completely different and was designed to execute a sustained and thorough cyber-espionage campaign. We also did not identify any identical destructive behavior that was used by Wiper during our analysis of Flame.

The month of March is pretty much here already and I could not be more ready for it. It has been a pretty rough few weeks for us Tennesseans as we have experienced sub-freezing temperatures and snow. That being said, spring is just around the corner and things are looking brighter everyday.
Now I know my last post was pretty off topic, and truth be told, I'm pretty surprised it came off as well as it did. I was afraid for a while how people would react, seeing how this is a gaming site and all, but reception for my little tale was positive!
That being said it is time to get back to the matter at hand. I've been pretty quiet these last couple of months due to my new job. I work at a newspaper now and it has been a very positive experience for the most part. Though it can be stressful at times, I do believe that my life is heading in the right direction.
Consequently though, it has taken my energy away from writing these posts, but I am more confident now, and am ready to get back to posting more often. The bad news is there is another reason why I have not written in much lately: my laptop died on me back in December. The last post I put up was written on my tablet, and let me tell you, writing these on through the web browser on a iPad leaves much to be desired. Doing it this just isn't very intuitive, which is why I'm saving up for a new computer. I don't know when exactly it will happen, but hopefully it will be resolved in a few more months.
The gaming life is still going well though. Recently I did a play through of Castlevania Symphony of the Night, a game that was on my bucket list for a long time. I have tried to mark more of these kinds of games off my list over the past couple of years, and I wonder how many more I will get to and how soon will be able to do it.
Now that I think about it, there are several I would like to finish. Here are just a few games in no particular order: Pikmin, F-Zero GX, The Legacy of Kane, Mega Man X2 and X3, 3D Dot Game Heroes, and Skyrim. This list changes practically everyday, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Even if I did finish all of the games I wanted to get to, I would probably find a bunch more anyway.
I think everyone has something to they wanted to play but never got around to because they were busy. More and more I've tried to knock a few off, but I always add to it as soon as I mark one off. My most recent conquest is The Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask.
This is a game that I have hesitated to do for years simply because I hate time limits, and this is basically one big ticking clock. I am about halfway through the game right now though my first instinct is to say the game a little overrated, I admit that my bias against time limits hinders my objectivity.
That is all for now, pretty bare bones I know, but I just wanted to share what I have been up to lately. The next post will be a bit more substantial. In the meantime, share some games from your own bucket list!
