Great American Ball Park, Cincinnati, Ohio
CINCINNATI -- Aroldis Chapman let baseball know in his own way that his long journey back from an scary injury was complete: with a 100 mph strike to the game's hottest hitter.
Chapman made his first major league appearance since being hit above the eye by a line drive during spring training, striking out the side in the ninth with his 100 mph fastball to close out the Cincinnati Reds' 4-1 victory over the Colorado Rockies 4-1 Sunday.
"I am really happy to get out there for the first time," said Chapman through a translator. "They are a good team but I was mentally prepared to face them. Facing those type of hitters make you feel better, than if you just break the ice."
Chapman walked Troy Tulowitzki, who started the day leading the National League with a .405 batting average, but had an easy inning.
Todd Frazier hit his second 400-foot home run in three days to back Homer Bailey's shutdown pitching as Cincinnati won the rubber match of its three-game series with Colorado.
Didn't Miss A Beat
Aroldis Chapman struck out the side to earn the save in his first game back since being hit in the head by a line drive. Fifteen of Chapman's 21 pitches went 100 mph or more Sunday.
Most Pitches 100+ MPH Since Start Last Yr
Pitcher | Number of Pitches |
Aroldis Chapman | 297 |
Bruce Rondon | 144 |
Kelvin Herrera | 119 |
Henry Rodriguez | 43 |
-- ESPN Stats & Information |
"It was great to see Aroldis. The confidence and determination he had was very cool," said Frazier without a thought to his second home run of the series or his 11-game hitting streak.
Chapman was greeted by a standing ovation from the crowd of 33,143. He reached 100 mph with his first pitch and topped out at 102 mph in earning the save. Chapman had been out since being hit above the left eye by a line drive during a spring training game on March 19.
"I was excited to get back but I was even more excited when I heard the fans," said the 26-year old Cuban.
Chapman was hit hard in his in his last two rehab starts in Louisville, allowing eight earned runs in one inning over the two-game stint.
"As much as you want guys to treat those assignments like a normal game, they don't always have the same focus," Reds manager Bryan Price said. "The reports we had said he was throwing the ball well. He made some big pitchers to get some good hitters out."
Skip Schumaker drove in two runs and the Reds capitalized on two Colorado throwing errors to send the Rockies to their third loss in four games.
Besides contributing two sacrifice bunts, Bailey (3-2) limited a Colorado offense that produced 11 runs and 16 hits on Saturday night to one run -- Charlie Blackmon's ninth homer of the season and second in two games -- and four hits with two walks and six strikeouts in 7 1/3 innings.
"Homer worked with (pitching coach) Jeff Pico to raise his hands above his head during his wind up," Price said.
Bailey, who signed a $105 million contract in March, struggled through his first seven starts. He began the game with an ERA at 5.36.
"I had to do something," Bailey said. "I had to figure something out. There was nowhere else to go but to be better."
Manny Parra got the final two outs of the eighth inning.
The Reds snapped Nolan Arenado's streak of getting on base at 30 consecutive games, two days after his hitting streak was stopped at a franchise-record 28 games.
"Chapman threw the ball very well," Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. "He used his splitter well to left-handed hitters. He was on today."
Juan Nicasio (4-2), who'd won his previous two starts, allowed five hits and four runs -- two earned -- with one walk and three strikeouts.
Billy Hamilton, making his first start since spraining two knuckles on his left hand while making a diving catch on May 1, led off the first inning with a bunt single up the first base line and went all the way to third on first baseman Justin Morneau's throwing error. Hamilton scored on Schumaker's groundout to second baseman DJ LeMahieu.
The Reds made it 2-0 in the third on Ramon Santiago's leadoff bloop single to left field, Bailey's sacrifice, a Nicasio balk while facing Hamilton and Schumaker's soft, two-out liner to center field.
Blackmon became the first Rockie to reach base when he led off the fourth with an estimated 380-foot shot into the right field seats on a 2-2 pitch.
Frazier got that run back with his seventh homer of the season, an estimated 421-foot drive to center field on a 2-2 pitch with one out in the fourth inning that extended his career-high hitting streak to 11 games (13 for 42, .310). Frazier reached an estimated 485 feet with a home run on Friday.
The Reds used another throwing error to take a 4-1 lead in the fifth. With Santiago on third base and Hamilton on second and two outs, third baseman Arenado's high throw to Morneau on Brandon Phillips' two-out grounder pulled the first baseman off the bag. Phillips slid under the attempted tag while Santiago scored.
Game notes
Blackmon's homer was Colorado's 20th of the season with two strikes. ... Reds RHP Mat Latos threw a bullpen session before the game, the next step in his comeback from a flexor mass strain in his right elbow that has kept him out all season. Latos had surgery to remove bone chips from the elbow shortly after the 2013 season and needed surgery on February 14 to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee. He has won 14 games in each of his first two seasons with Cincinnati. ... Colorado and Cincinnati both have Monday off. The Rockies are scheduled to open a two-game interleague series at Kansas City on Tuesday, the same day the Reds are due to open a three-game home series against San Diego.

As space work goes on, Russia key
With shuttle fleet grounded, NASA may need Russia to keep the space station aloft.
Derided for pasting a Pizza Hut logo on its rockets and catering to wealthy "space tourists," Russia could now find itself flying to the rescue.
Can Soviet-era spacecraft substitute for the shuttle in supporting humanity's grandest science project: the International Space Station (ISS)?
The answer appears to be yes, if the US helps out with cash - a lot of it. Russia's financially strapped space agency is now taking stock of its capabilities.
"We can support the human side of the ISS program, and ensure adequate supplies are brought to the crew," says Georgi Gretchko, a former cosmonaut and space official.
Russia has budgeted for two manned Soyuz launches in 2003 plus three Progress supply flights to the ISS. Those vehicles are almost ready, and one Soyuz could be sent up as early as April - perhaps unmanned, in order to save space and fuel. "Russian ships were always more cost-effective than the shuttle, and with the proper financing we should be able to at least keep the station functioning," Mr. Gretchko says.
"If the ISS project is to continue, it obviously means that Russia must take first place in running the program, at least temporarily," says Sergei Kazyonnov, an expert at the Institute of National Security and Strategic Studies in Moscow. "There is proven technology, and enough skilled people, but the Russian space program is bankrupt. It comes down to money."
The Russian Space Agency's budget, $265 million last year, is dwarfed by NASA's $15.5 billion annual allocation.
Since ditching its own independent orbiter, the Mir, two years ago, Russia's Space Agency has focused more than half its meager resources on meeting its modest ISS obligations, which include the two annual manned visits to the station by Soyuz spacecraft and three by Progress robot supply ships.

Good review! However about the comment of "80gb is more than enough for even the most bloated of OS's" (or along those lines...) : I have a 150GB partition set up for my machine here, and I am still having to uninstall and delete games that I dont use often to install anything new. My OS and the size of new games just CHEWS space.... I am going to go no less than 250GB from now on for OS installs!! Games these days are 10+ GB each, with some reaching 20+!

TUSCALOOSA | The University of Alabama basketball team is on a streak it would like to break, but Crimson Tide senior Demetrius Smith is on a personal streak that he is starting to like.
The Tide will be looking to snap a two-game losing streak in tonight's game against LSU in Coleman Coliseum (6 p.m.). Smith will hope to contribute to that as a starter in the Tide's backcourt -- the first time in his Alabama career that he has started in consecutive games.
Smith has gotten the starting nod due to the continued absence of leading scorer Earnest Shelton, who is sidelined with a knee injury he suffered against Georgia on Jan. 21.
"I know I have to step up and play," Smith said. "It's good to start, but I wish the team was at full strength. Earnest is a big part of our team."
Smith hasn't quite replaced the offensive production supplied by Shelton, but in the Tide's past two games, he has averaged 10.5 points per game, and has led the team in assists.
"Demetrius gives us a little better ball-handling than Emmett [Thomas]," UA coach Mark Gottfried said. "He's more of a traditional guard. I also think that Emmett is really good for us in his role off the bench. He can substitute for three or four different guys, so that's an important role for us."
Smith played briefly in Alabama's 70-66 loss at LSU on Jan. 10, a game that still frustrates many of the Alabama players.
"We just didn't finish in that game," Smith said. "I give LSU credit. [Darrell] Mitchell came off the bench and hit some big 3-pointers, and [Jaime] Lloreda was hard to stop. But I think if we stop those two guys on Saturday, we have a great chance to win."
Gottfried said that several Tide players felt they let the game at Baton Rouge "slip away," but added that was not part of his motivational strategy this week.
"I think our players do feel that way, that we had a chance to win the game, but whatever your perspective is on that, we have to realize that this is a different game, and we are both different teams than we were three weeks ago. We don't have Earnest, and I think that LSU has seen a lot of zone [defense] since we played them, and they are starting to figure that out. Mitchell has been shooting the ball a lot better for them, and they are playing good defense."
"I think our guys are anxious to play," Gottfried said. "We are coming off a loss, but I think our guys realize that Florida may be the best team we have played all year.
"We still don't have Earnest, but we are just going to have to deal with that. We're not going to have him for a while. He went out today [at the UA practice] and tried to shoot, but just from watching him, it was obvious that he is not in any position to cut and run. I don't think he can be back for South Carolina [on Feb. 4], but we have almost a week off after that, so I'm hoping that by the Kentucky game, he can be back in there."
Gottfried also said that forward Kennedy Winston was once again forced to miss practice on Friday due to swelling in his left knee.
"We'll just have to see how he feels [at game time]," Gottfried said. "It's been swelling, and the other problem is that it becomes difficult to stay sharp when you aren't able to practice."
LSU (13-4, 3-3) brings some momentum into the game after a 63-59 win over Georgia snapped a three-game losing streak. The Tigers are averaging just over 55 points per game in their last four contests, while holding opponents to 59 points per game in that stretch. The Tigers are No. 27 in the most recent RPI ratings, while Alabama is at No. 18 nationally.

Coordination among working groups needs to be strengthened.
Scheduling of products is on a predetermined timetable without consideration for the rate at which new knowledge becomes available, which in some cases is slower than the rate at which assessments are produced.
Assessment effort places tremendous burden on the scientific community at the cost of conducting new research.
Treatment of uncertainty is uneven.
Ensuring continuity might become an issue unless younger scientists are recruited and trained in conducting assessments.
Negotiations for a convention on biological diversity began in 1988 during a UNEP-led meeting of experts on issues of biological diversity. The Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) opened for signatures in 1992 and entered into force in 1993. Its mandate is to conserve, sustainably use, and share the benefits of biological diversity. The CBD did not have a formal scientific assessment as an underpinning, but instead the framers worked with ad hoc working groups of legal and technical experts (Bernstein et al. 1993). Although the convention did not call for assessment activities, the GBA was initiated after the convention and was crafted to provide such a scientific foundation; it was completed in 1995 (GBA 1995). Because the GBA was not formally mandated by the Conference of the Parties of the CBD, it had only informal ties to the convention.
Establishing Clear Rationales and Appropriate Institutional Structures. The GBA grew out of a recognized need to provide a scientific foundation for the CBD. Although it was administered by UNEP, it did not have a formal connection to the CBD process; hence it lacked a clear mandate, which proved to be an important flaw in the design (Watson 2006). The project document was characterized by a lack of detail. As the first effort of its kind to assess the global state of the biodiversity and the health of global ecosystems, no model was available to guide this undertaking. Limited funding also played a role in the planning process.
Designing and Scheduling Assessment Activities. The budget for the GBA was limited given the scope of the mandate. The lack of funding restricted the numbers of meetings available for planning, report preparation, and dissemination. In addition, it limited the size of the support staff in Nairobi, which hampered the facilitation of many stages of the process.

A Spirited Combination With a Silver Lining
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- They come from two different worlds -- silver and spirits -- but these two "hard" assets could add some shine to your portfolio.
First, the silver. In a speech given in Indiana earlier this week, Chairman Bernanke reminded us once again the Federal Reserve will be accommodating the growth of the investment markets for a long time to come.
What Bernanke said was bold and direct, "We expect to keep the short-term interest rate at exceptionally low levels to at least mid-2015... So long as price stability is preserved, and we will take care not to raise rates prematurely."
The Fed's interest rate policy, in Bernanke's own words, will be in place "...for a considerable time after the economy strengthens." Now that's what I call "accommodating" and should help hard assets to skyrocket in the months ahead.
One of those hard assets is silver, which I believe is not only the "poor man's gold" but is an essential precious metal used in technologies as diverse as electronics and killing virus' that cause diseases. Yes, this amazing metal has dozens of industrial uses, but when you look at aOne way to play the benefits of rising silver prices is to own one of the largest primary silver producers in the world. Pan American Silver (PAAS - Get Report) is the largest publicly traded silver miner today and the share price still has room to run. It keeps moving higher with the price of silver because it's growing its bottom line, as the following chart illustrates how its price-per-share and free cash flow appear to be moving in tandem.

Wheat prices hit record high
The cost of March spring wheat hit $24 a bushel Monday, double its cost two months ago.
Joanne Ciccarello - staff
New York
Dressed in his white apron and baker's hat, Jose Espinal puts the finishing touches on a chicken pot pie that will be sold to customers of Cucina & Co. later in the day. He carefully places a crust on the pie and crimps the top and bottom together.
But to make the dough for about 300 pies, Mr. Espinal, the pastry chef, used 22 pounds of flour – an item that the store knows will soon be rising in price.
"I'm expecting it this week," says Michael Salmon, director of operations of Cucina, which is in Macy's in Manhattan. "Maybe 20 or 30 percent."
Why the increase? The prime ingredient in flour is wheat, which these days is acting more like oil – rising sharply on commodities exchanges. On Monday, the price of March spring wheat on the Minneapolis Grain Exchange shot up to $24 a bushel, the highest price ever. Within the past month, the price of some types of wheat has risen over 90 percent. Already, agricultural experts say, it's getting hard to find the type of wheat used to make pasta, noodles, pizza, and bagels.
"Supplies of some types of wheat will be extremely tight," says economist William Lapp, president of Advanced Economic Solutions in Omaha, Neb. "I don't think we'll see physical bread lines, but supplies will be just tight."

Findings from the National Faculty Study
(Page 1 of 1)
Scientists claim the collagenase enzyme matrix metalloproteinase 1 (MMP-1) plays a key role in the immunmopathology of tuberculosis (TB). A team led by researchers at Imperial College London found increased levels of MMP-1 in the lungs of TB patients.
They further demonstrated that M. tuberculosis infection selectively upregulates MMP-1 gene expression and secretion in primary human monocytes. Moreover, Ro32-3555, a selective collagenase inhibitor that has been tested in human Phase III trials for a different disease, completely inhibited the activity of MMP-1 activity secreted by M. tuberculosis-infected primary human macrophages.
Their results are published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation in a paper titled "MMP-1 drives immunopathology in human tuberculosis and transgenic mice."
Although the mechanisms by which M. tuberculosis evades the host immune response are becoming increasingly well understood, those by which the bacterium engages the immune response to drive tissue destruction and hence transmission are relatively poorly characterized, explain Paul Elkington, Ph.D., at Imperial's department of infectious diseases and immunity, and colleagues.
To determine whether MMPs play a role in the immunopathology of TB, the scientists profiled MMPs and their natural tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) in sputum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from patients with TB and symptomatic controls. MMP-1 concentrations were significantly increased in both HIV-negative and HIV-positive patients with TB, while TIMP concentrations were lower in the same groups. Interestingly, there were no differences in the concentrations of TNF-α, IFN-γ, and IL-1b, which are key cytokines in the immune response, the researchers note.
In primary human monocytes, M. tuberculosis infection selectively upregulated MMP-1 gene expression and secretion. Significantly, Ro32-3555, a compound that has been used in Phase III clinical trials for arthritis, effectively suppressed M. tuberculosis-driven MMP-1 activity in infected primary human macrophages.
To test the effects of MMP-1 in vivo, the researchers used a mouse model. Mice do not naturally express the murine equivalent of MMP-1 in the lung, and mice infected with M. tuberculosis do not develop tissue destruction equivalent to that in infected humans. Dr. Elkington's team therefore infected transgenic mice expressing human MMP-1 with M. tuberculosis to investigate whether MMP-1 caused lung immunopathology. They found that in the transgenic mice M. tuberculosis infection increased MMP-1 expression, and the alveolar walls were destroyed in areas of infection.
"Our data using what we believe to be a novel murine model of TB demonstrates a functional role for MMP-1 driving extracellular matrix remodeling in TB," the authors conclude. "Targeting MMP-1 activity may reduce the pathology that results in the morbidity and mortality of TB."

- 1/2 teaspoon(s) ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) hot paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) turmeric
- 2 medium tomatoes, cut into eighths
- 1/4 preserved lemon, rind only, minced
- 8 frozen artichoke hearts, thawed and quartered
- 1 cup(s) frozen petite peas, thawed
- Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. In a medium, enameled cast-iron casserole, combine the chicken with the coarsely chopped onion and the chicken stock, and bring to a boil. In a small bowl, mix the saffron threads with the ginger, coriander, cumin, paprika, and turmeric. Stir the spice mixture into the broth. Cover and simmer over low heat, turning the chicken pieces once, until the breast pieces are just white throughout, about 25 minutes; transfer the breast pieces to a bowl and cover. Continue to simmer the drumsticks and thighs, covered, until done, about 15 minutes longer; transfer to the bowl with the breast pieces and keep covered.
- Add the minced onion, the tomatoes, preserved lemon, and artichoke hearts to the casserole and simmer over moderate heat until the broth is richly flavored, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and add the peas. Return the chicken to the casserole and simmer gently, turning a few times, until heated through. Serve the tagine in shallow bowls.
