Rubby De La Rosa Rumors
Red Sox Acquire Wade Miley
The Red Sox have officially added lefty Wade Miley in a trade with the Diamondbacks, the teams announced today. Right-handers Rubby De La Rosa and Allen Webster, along with infielder Raymel Flores, make up the return for the D'Backs.
Miley has been the source of several rumors during these Winter Meetings, with the Rangers, Marlins and Blue Jays all with varying levels of interest in the southpaw. Miley is projected to earn $4.3MM (by MLBTR's Matt Swartz) in his first time through the arbitration process this winter, and he'll be under team control through 2017.
Over the last three seasons, Miley has posted a 3.74 ERA, 2.66 K/BB rate and 7.1 K/9 while averaging an even 200 innings per year. He has a 48.6% ground ball rate over his career, which will serve him as well at Fenway Park as it did at Chase Field. Miley posted a 3.98 FIP, 3.50 xFIP and 3.67 SIERA in 2014, so the advanced metrics suggest that he was somewhat unlucky to produce his 4.34 ERA.
While Miley isn't the durable lefty the Red Sox were hoping to land during the Winter Meetings, Miley is at least younger and far cheaper than Jon Lester, and he'll slot into the Boston rotation alongside Clay Buchholz and Joe Kelly. Boston is undoubtedly still looking to acquire at least one or possibly two more starters for 2015, including a Lester-level ace in free agency or the trade market.
This is the second high-profile deal that De La Rosa and Webster have both been a part of, as the two righties were part of the trade package that Boston received as part of the Adrian Gonzalez/Carl Crawford/Josh Beckett blockbuster with the Dodgers in 2012. As Jack Magruder of FOX Sports Arizona points out, Diamondbacks senior VP De Jon Watson was in the Los Angeles front office when De La Rosa and Webster originally joined the Dodgers.
De La Rosa appeared in 30 games for the Sox (18 of them starts) in 2013-14, posting a 4.54 ERA, 2.16 K/BB and 6.4 K/9 in 113 innings. With Boston openly looking to add top-level starting pitching this offseason and a number of highly-regarded pitching prospects in the minors, it seems as if De La Rosa may have simply been squeezed out of a job with the Sox.
Webster also struggled at the Major League level (a 6.25 ERA over 89 1/3 innings over the last two seasons) but has a higher prospect pedigree than De La Rosa. Webster entered the year ranked as a top-100 prospect in the game, albeit over rather a wide range — he was ranked 46th by MLB.com, and 88th by Baseball America. The righty posted strong minor league numbers and was described by the 2014 Baseball America Prospect Handbook as having "outrageous" stuff "suggesting top-of-the-rotation potential" but there were big questions about his confidence and fastball command.
That brings us to Flores, a 20-year-old middle infielder who played at the low-A level last year in his age-19 season. Flores hit .282/.344/.354 over 233 plate appearances, adding 14 stolen bases and one long ball, but he is known primarily for his glove.
FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal and Jon Paul Morosi first reported the deal (via Twitter). Jon Heyman of FOX Sports reported on Twitter that it was finalized. Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic (via Twitter) and MLB.com's Steve Gilbert (via Twitter) reported the inclusion of Flores.

Diamondbacks Designate Eury De La Rosa
The Diamondbacks have designated lefty Eury De La Rosa, the team announced. The move clears roster space for Arizona's addition of Rubby De La Rosa and Allen Webster via trade.
An undersized 24-year-old southpaw, De La Rosa (that is, the former) performed well in 36 2/3 innings of big league action last year. He carried a 2.95 ERA (backed by a 3.49 FIP, 4.16 xFIP, and 3.65 SIERA) while striking out 7.9 batters per nine and issuing 3.4 free passes per regulation game. He was similarly effective in 39 1/3 Triple-A frames,

AL Central Notes: Tigers, Santana, Neshek, Viciedo
A reunion between Max Scherzer and the Tigers is "not happening," a club official tells Peter Gammons (via Twitter). What Detroit might do, however, is trade right-hander Rick Porcello to the Red Sox for a package of Yoenis Cespedes and Rubby De La Rosa. Rumors of a Porcello/Cespedes deal arose a few days ago but talks between the two sides were "not hot" according to Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald. Here's some more from around the AL Central…
- The Angels are searching for middle infield help and the Twins' Eduardo Escobar is on their list of targets, MLB.com's Alden Gonzalez tweets. Mike Berardino of the St. Paul Pioneer Press (also via Twitter) thinks the Halos could offer Minnesota a reliever in return, with Vinnie Pestano being "one name to watch."
- Also from Berardino (on Twitter), the Twins haven't yet talked to free agent starter Ervin Santana. The right-hander's representatives are open to hearing from Minnesota, however, with a source telling Berardino that Santana "loves pitching in the cold."
- Pat Neshek's agent Barry Meister tells Berardino that he had a "social discussion" with Twins GM Terry Ryan but the two sides "haven't had any substantive discussions at all" about the reliever rejoining the club. Meister said that there has been "substantial interest" from around the league in Neshek and another top reliever client, Sergio Romo.
- The White Sox are telling teams that Dayan Viciedo is available, USA Today's Bob Nightengale reports (Twitter link). It's no surprise that Viciedo is being shopped given that the Sox have been rumored to be exploring such outfield replacements as Melky Cabrera. Viciedo hit .231/.281/.405 with 21 homers in 563 PA last season, providing below-replacement level value with -0.9 rWAR.

Red Sox Notes: Free Agents, Young Arms, Betts, Uehara
While Red Sox chairman Tom Werner recently implied that the team is likely to do some significant spending on the free agent market this offseason, a source tells Alex Speier of WEEI.com that adding two top-tier pitchers isn't in the club's offseason blueprint. The team will likely pursue one ace-caliber pitcher, but the feeling within the organization is that there's enough talent to fill out a championship-caliber rotation. Joe Kelly and Rubby De La Rosa appear to have spots penciled in, and Clay Buchholz has had a resurgence of late. Beyond those three, the Sox have Brandon Workman, Anthony Ranaudo, Matt Barnes, Allen Webster, Henry Owens, Brian Johnson and Eduardo Rodriguez all in line to compete for rotation spots. It's still believed that the team will pursue Jon Lester most aggressively, Speier writes, though he also spoke with Rays manager Joe Maddon about the Tampa skipper's former right-hander, James Shields.
Here's more on the 2013 World Series champs and their attempt to get out of the cellar in 2015…
- Webster, Workman and Ranaudo have failed to impress in extended looks at the Major League level this season, writes Brian MacPherson of the Providence Journal. MacPherson has a hard time envisioning GM Ben Cherington heading into the 2015 campaign with two or three unproven arms in the rotation following the struggles that many of the team's young prospects endured in 2014. Only De La Rosa has shownthe ability to be a piece of next year's rotation, he concludes. MacPherson spoke with both manager John Farrell and pitching coach Juan Nieves about the struggles that Boston's young pitchers have endured thus far.
- In a second piece, Speier writes that Mookie Betts has gone "from blocked to building block," noting that his versatility and upside may have led to him supplanting Xander Bogaerts as the club's most untouchable asset in trades. Of course, Dustin Pedroia remains under contract at second base and the team has an enviable outfield logjam, so interest in Betts will likely be high, but Speier opines that Betts should be retained, as his versatility would allow the Red Sox to pursue upgrades at a number of positions in the future, knowing that Betts could be moved around the diamond and still thrive.
- Koji Uehara told reporters, including Speier's colleague Rob Bradford, that the life on his splitter still isn't there. As Bradford notes, Uehara has experienced a late-season downturn like this before, as he struggled greatly at an oddly similar juncture near the end of his tenure with the Rangers in 2011. The displaced closer adds that he's not thinking about where he'll play in 2015 or regaining the ninth inning, but rather trying to finish the season on a high note before "see[ing] what happens in free agency."

Red Sox Notes: Draft, Betts, Lester
The Red Sox have fewer wins than the Royals since the start of the 2012 season, but having losing years before and after a World Series victory has its advantages, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports writes. They're going to have a very valuable top draft pick next year (if the season ended today, they would pick in the top ten, just as they did in 2013) and a bigger international signing pool. Meanwhile, they retain the financial edge they have over other teams — they're already reloading for 2015 with the acquisitions of Yoenis Cespedes and Allen Craig, along with the impending addition of Rusney Castillo, all of whom will have significant salaries going forward. Here are a couple more quick notes out of Boston.
- The Red Sox placed Mookie Betts, Brandon Workman and Rubby De La Rosa on revocable waivers today, Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe tweets. All are valuable young players, so it's a strong possibility they'll be claimed, at which point the Red Sox will pull them back. It probably isn't likely any of them will be traded.
- With Cespedes and Craig in the fold and Castillo soon to join, manager John Farrell says the Sox will hunt for pitching this offseason, WEEI.com's Alex Speier tweets. Boston, of course, dealt Jon Lester and John Lackey at the trade deadline, although it remains possible that the Red Sox could re-sign Lester when he becomes a free agent this winter.

East Notes: Red Sox, Marlins, De La Rosa, Ayala
The injury bug has struck the Red Sox again. Mike Carp, who replaced the injured Mike Napoli at first base, under went a CT scan today and it revealed a broken foot, tweets Brian MacPherson of the Providence Journal. The injury will set off a series of roster moves with Stephen Drew ready to join the club in Cleveland tomorrow. MacPherson tweets the Red Sox will place Carp on the disabled list and and recall Daniel Nava. Garin Cecchini, who made his MLB debut today when Dustin Pedroia was ejected and went 1-for-2 with a RBI double, told reporters (including Jason Mastrodonato of MassLive.com) he will have dinner with his parents and then report to Triple-A Pawtucket. Prior to the announcement of Carp's injury, the Boston Herald's Scott Lauber outlined how the Red Sox could juggle playing time with the addition of Drew.
Elsewhere in baseball's East divisions:
- The Marlins acquired right-handed reliever Bryan Morris from the Pirates earlier in the day and the team is already being criticized for the move. Fangraph's Dave Cameron opines Morris is a below replacement level pitcher and giving up the 39th pick in the draft for him (an asset worth several million dollars) is "beyond crazy" (Twitter links).
- Jim Bowden of ESPN and MLB Network Radio agrees with Cameron tweeting Morris is not worth past number 39 picks like Lance Lynn (Cardinals), Anthony Ranaudo (Red Sox), and Joey Gallo (Rangers).
- Marlins President of Baseball Operations Michael Hill defended the trade to reporters, including the South Florida Sun-Sentinel's Juan C. Rodriguez. "We had a need," Hill said. "It was in our bullpen. We were looking for the piece that was the right fit for us in terms of controlling, not just short-term, but long-term, and [Morris] had the stuff to help our club as well."
- Hill also said the trade "is the first piece" as he attempts to strengthen the second-place Marlins. "I don't think we're finished in trying to improve our club. We're still trying to make as many improvements as we think we can to help this team."
- Alex Speier of WEEI.com chronicles the development of Red Sox right-hander Rubby De La Rosa from a prospect who had trouble harnessing his potential to the pitcher who tossed seven shutout innings with eight strikeouts Saturday night.
- Right-hander Luis Ayala, who opted out of his minor league deal with the Orioles yesterday, will pitch in Mexico, tweets MASNsports.com's Rock Kubatko.

Quick Hits: Tanaka, Headley, Stanton, Crawford
Right-hander Masahiro Tanaka may be the next Japanese pitcher to turn a strong World Baseball Classic performance into a nine-figure Major League contract, ESPN's C.J. Nitkowski writes (Insider subscription required). Tanaka, 24, has a 2.50 ERA, 8.6 K/9 and 4.34 K/BB ratio in 1103 IP over six seasons with the Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles. Tanaka has expressed interest in pitching in North America and is three years away from international free agency, though Rakuten could open the posting process before then.
Here's the latest from around the majors…
- The Padres are starting to listen to offers for Chase Headley, Bill Madden of the New York Daily News reports. The Padres tabled extension talks with Headley earlier this winter after the two sides were far apart on terms. The third baseman is under contract through the 2014 season and Madden argues that the Yankees should make a move for a young star like Headley or Giancarlo Stanton in order to bolster the lineup and ensure the team will contend this year.
- "The fact is, this is the right time to trade Stanton. He's never going to have more value than this," a Marlins operative tells Madden, arguing that such an unpopular move can't hurt a team that is already at rock bottom in terms of public perception. "I understand Jeffrey [Loria]'s getting killed in Miami over blowing up the team this winter and why he doesn't want to trade Stanton. But how much more can we get killed? He's already had some injury issues, and we're never going to sign him to a long-term deal," Madden's source said.
- Carl Crawford criticized the Boston media and told CBS Sports' Danny Knobler that he erred in signing with the Red Sox in the 2010-11 offseason. "It just wasn't the right place for me at the end of my day. I didn't do my homework. Maybe they didn't, either," Crawford said.
- If the Tigers do acquire a reliever, MLB.com's Jason Beck believes such a deal isn't likely until nearer to the end of Spring Training when other teams have their own bullpen situations settled.
- Chone Figgins feels a lack of playing time exacerbated his struggles with the Mariners and is looking forward to seeing more action playing under NL rules with the Marlins, The Associated Press reports.
- Rubby De La Rosa and Allen Webster have both looked good in Spring Training and the Red Sox could reap more than financial benefits from last summer's trade with the Dodgers if these two young pitchers develop, John Tomase of the Boston Herald writes. Tomase also talks to Rays manager Joe Maddon about how the Rays were targeting De La Rosa before L.A. dealt him to Boston.

Red Sox Receive De La Rosa, Sands From Dodgers
The Red Sox announced that they have received right-hander Rubby De La Rosa and outfielder Jerry Sands to complete their blockbuster deal with the Dodgers from earlier this summer. In a related move, the club has designated catcher Guillermo Quiroz for assignment.
De La Rosa and Sands were already known to be the players to be named later in the August 25th swap, but the two sides had to wait until the end of the major league season to make that end of the deal official. The other two prospects in the trade, pitcher Allen Webster and infielder Ivan De Jesus, already joined Boston.
De La Rosa, 23, was sidelined for the bulk of the 2012 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery. The right-hander had a strong debut season in 2011, posting a 3.71 ERA with 8.9 K/9 and 4.6 BB/9 in ten starts and three relief appearances. De La Rosa and Webster were considered to be the top pitchers in the Los Angeles farm system after two-sport standout Zach Lee.
Sands, 25, posted a .244/.325/.376 slash line with four homers in 251 plate appearances for the Dodgers over the last two seasons. He also owns a Triple-A batting line of .288/.362/.552 with 55 home runs in 940 plate appearances during that stretch.
Quiroz, 30, has seen time for the Blue Jays, Mariners (twice) , Rangers, Orioles, and Red Sox across eight big league seasons. He spent most of the year with Seattle's Triple-A affiliate, where he hit .278/.362/.483 with 15 homers in 89 games.

Farrell Likely To Be Top Choice In Boston
John Farrell has a job and the Red Sox have a manager, but rumors about Boston's interest in Farrell persist as the Blue Jays prepare for a series at Fenway Park. MLB sources indicated to Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe that Farrell will be the top choice to replace Bobby Valentine in 2013. Furthermore, people who know Farrell say he'd welcome the opportunity to return to Boston, according to Cafardo. However, Farrell maintains that his focus remains in Toronto.
"My focus and my commitment has been and is here, unequivocally," he told reporters this week.
Farrell, who is under contract for 2013, was Boston's pitching coach before being hired by the Blue Jays. The Red Sox attempted to acquire him from Toronto twice last year, according to Cafardo. Though the Blue Jays were willing to listen, the sides didn't agree on compensation. The Red Sox eventually hired Valentine, who's also under contract for 2013. However, there's a widespread expectation that Valentine won't return to Boston next year.
The Red Sox probably wouldn't want to part with recently-acquired pitching prospect Rubby De La Rosa, but the Blue Jays would love to add someone like him to their organization, Cafardo writes.

A Look At The Prospects Headed To The Red Sox
The Red Sox and Dodgers completed what is arguably the biggest trade of the MLB Trade Rumors era today, a nine-player swap featuring Josh Beckett, Adrian Gonzalez, and Carl Crawford moving to Los Angeles. The Dodgers clearly made the move with the intention of improving their chances to win both now and during the next several seasons, but for the Red Sox it was all about a fresh start.
As reported earlier, the Dodgers will assume all but $12MM of the approximately $271.5MM in contracts coming their way. Boston is getting what amounts to a financial fresh start, as their three highest paid players coming into the season (in terms of average annual value) are now off the books. After a disastrous end to last season and a disappointing 2012 season overall, most clubs would have been happy just clearing that much future payroll. Red Sox GM Ben Cherington did one better and acquired some quality prospects as well.
The four-player prospect haul is highlighted by two right-handers: Allen Webster and Rubby De La Rosa (pictured). The Cubs asked for the 22-year-old Webster in exchange for right-hander Ryan Dempster prior to the trade deadline but were rebuffed. Baseball America ranked him as the number two prospect in Los Angeles' system before the season, behind only Zach Lee. Webster was also ranked as the 95th best prospect in baseball before the season by the publication. He's pitched to a 3.55 ERA with 8.7 K/9 and 4.2 BB/9 in 22 starts and five relief appearances at the Double-A level this season, and Baseball America spoke to one team official who described him as a future number two starter in the Derek Lowe mold.
De La Rosa, 23, just returned from Tommy John surgery. He threw a dozen minor league rehab innings before making one relief appearance with the Dodgers earlier this week, but was sent down to Triple-A last night so he could be included in the trade as a player to be named later. Reports indicated that the Blue Jays may have claimed him off waivers, so pulling him back and waiting until the offseason to officially include him gets around that obstacle. De La Rosa made ten starts and three relief appearances for the Dodgers last year, pitching to a 3.71 ERA with 8.9 K/9 and 4.6 BB/9 in 60 2/3 innings. PitchFX confirms that he can run his fastball into the upper-90s and triple digits. Although Rubby was not eligible for this year's prospect lists, Baseball America considered him the third best prospect in the organization and 90th best prospect in the game prior to 2011. Like Webster, they called him a potential number two starter down the road.
The Red Sox have developed two above-average starting pitchers in Jon Lester and Clay Buchholz in recent years, but they whiffed on free agent contracts to John Lackey and (to a lesser extent) Daisuke Matsuzaka. Only two of their top ten prospects coming into the season were pitchers, and number four prospect Anthony Ranaudo has only thrown 37 2/3 innings due to injury this summer. They surrendered Casey Kelly to acquire Gonzalez last offseason, however 2011 first rounder Matt Barnes has since emerged as one of the best pitching prospects in the game. Boston's starting rotation has pitched to a 4.88 ERA this season, fourth worst in the AL and fifth worst in all of baseball. Not all prospects work out, but adding Webster and De La Rosa to Barnes gives the Red Sox some much-needing top-shelf pitching depth in the upper minors.
The two other pieces of the trade – Jerry Sands and Ivan De Jesus – project to be role players. The 24-year-old Sands is a right-handed hitting corner outfielder/first baseman who has hit .244/.325/.376 with four homers in 251 plate appearances with the Dodgers over the last two seasons. His big Triple-A numbers (.291/.363/.557 since last year) are somewhat inflated due to a hitter-friendly park in Albuquerque. Like De La Rosa, Sands was not prospect-eligible this year but Baseball America did consider him the team's sixth best prospect prior to 2011. There is some concern about his ability to hit right-handed pitching long-term – .589 OPS vs. RHP and .904 OPS vs. LHP in his limited big league time – but Fenway Park should boost his offensive output. He'll give the Red Sox some flexibility at three of the four corner spots.
De Jesus, 25, missed the start of this season with an oblique injury and has been up and down the last two years. He's hit .231/.282/.277 in 72 big league plate appearances and .301/.354/.416 in over 1,200 Triple-A plate appearances since the start of 2010. Again, those minor league numbers are inflated a bit by the offensive environment in Albuquerque. Baseball America ranked him as the team's 26th best prospect before the season in their Prospect Handbook, where they noted his ability to play three infield positions. With Nick Punto on his way to Los Angeles and Will Middlebrooks injured, De Jesus will provide some infield depth for the time being.
The big prize for the Red Sox is all the freed-up payroll, but the trade was not just a pure salary dump. Webster and De La Rosa have the potential to be impact big leaguers and both Sands and De Jesus should be able to carve out a niche at the Major League level. Three of four prospects figure to see time with Boston next month, and Webster should be in consideration for a job at some point next season. The Dodgers were able to swing all of their midseason trades without surrendering Lee and 2011 first rounder Chris Reed, a benefit to their willingness to absorb money. Boston essentially hit the reset button financially, all while adding some quality prospects in the process.

Alec Baldwin is being accused of attacking a paparazzi again, however, this time he's being racist about it too. Being hot-tempered is kind of Alec Baldwin's bread-and-butter these days, according to a New York Post reporter.
Alec reportedly told a reporter over the weekend that he hopes she "chokes to death" and then turned his rage onto a nearby paparazzo whom he called a "crackhead" and a "coon" among other racial slurs. Afterwards, both Alec and the photog pressed charges against each other.
Of course Alec is denying the charges on Twitter, as he is known to do, but Alec isn't the ONLY star to throw insults (and punches) at the paparazzi.
Justin Bieber: Justin Bieber tends to have an issue with paparazzi all the time, but on one specific occasion he attacked a photog after the pap blocked Justin's vehicle in the parking lot of a movie theater. It's hard to tell if Justin was just super-pissed off or if he was trying to defend his then damsel-in-distress Selena Gomez.
Amanda Bynes: During Amanda Bynes downward spiral into crazy town, she turned into a manic crazy homeless lady for a hot second and attacked an Entertainment Tonight videographer when he took photos of her that she deemed unflattering.
Kanye West: Kanye infamously smashed a photogs camera at LAX back in 2008 and was charged with a few hours of community service. Cut to October 2012 and Kanye heckled a female reporter in Miami when she asked him and Kim how they felt about Kim's ex Reggie Bush knocking up his now-girlfriend.
Cameron Diaz: Back in 2004 when Cameron Diaz was dating Justin Timberlake (lol, remember that?) she and JT were notorious for physically and verbally attacking any and all paparazzi that crossed their paths like they were some kind of anti-photog vigilantes.
Sean Penn: Believe it or not, but Sean Penn was once accused of dangling a paparazzi from his balcony after he found him hiding in his hotel room. This was in 1986 and apparently Sean wasn't caught, which is why the whole thing seems suspect. Fast forward to 2009 and Sean attacks paparazzi on several occasions including one altercation when he threatened a paparazzi with "I will put you in a box."
Britney Spears: Britney's paparazzi meltdown is perhaps the most infamous. She attacked a paparazzo's car with an umbrella until the umbrella broke in half. Tragic. This was also the same time Britney shaved her head and divorced K-Fed; 2007 was a messy year for Brit Brit.
Chris Martin: Chris Martin once pulled a Britney and broke the windows (without an umbrella) and slashed the tires of a photog's car back in 2003 in Australia. Chris was arrested but surprisingly the charges were dropped.
Shia Labeouf: Shia Labeouf was getting a cup of coffee when a paparazzi snapped some photos, so Shia bought the guy a cup of coffee and threw it on the photog and ran away! WTF!

Social networking sites are now becoming the most useful tools of student, especially Facebook. It is becoming a raging craze for human-being nowadays. According to the latest study of a professional team, all students have their own Facebook account and log in it daily. One important point that attracts more attention is that the negative effect of Facebook are gradually overwhelming the positive ones and students are becoming the main victims . Being parents, we cannot ignore these negative sides of Facebook as well as our children's activities on Facebook; however, what should you do to monitor their activities on the Internet to protect our children. Perhaps, it is quite difficult but necessary to you to learn to hack Facebook account to have the best management with your children.
Why Do We Need To Learn To Hack Facebook Account?
In this article, we will show you some reasons that we think that you should learn to hack Facebook account to have the best protection for your children.
Reducing their learning and researching capabilities
Nowadays, majority of students like looking for information on the internet to do exercise or study more about their subject, however, there is a fact that whenever they turn on their computers to find information, they also log in their Facebook account and this action will make them unconcentrated on his working. According to the newest study, students who pay more attention to social website, their academic performance will be reduced quickly.
Avoiding communicating with real human
The more time your children spend on surfing their Facebook account, the less time they will spend on talking with others. It is extremely terrible because it can reduce the communication skill of your children. They cannot communicate efficiently with others and this will be the challenge for them to apply their job in the future because the employer are increasingly unsatisfied with the communication skill of the youth nowadays. Therefore, we advise you to learn to hack Facebook account of your children to have the best control.
Lowering language use and writing skill
Most of students like using slang words and shortened of words when chatting with their friends on Facebook. They would like to take advantages of the computer grammar and spelling check features. All thing they are doing now are lowering their using language and writing skill.
Effecting on metal health
The excessive using Facebook will cause many bad effect on their mental as well as physical problem. Many students can surf their Facebook all day without eating and sleeping. They usually tend to use coffee, tea, sandwiches or fast-food in stead of cooking for their meals which affect badly on their health.
The overuse of Facebook of the youth nowadays has many bad effects on their physical and mental health that make them ignorable and unmotivated to make contact with others.
They are some reasons which we think that you should have a careful consider to decide whether Facebook is bad or good to your children, and help you to find the best way to learn to hack Facebook account efficiently.
Learn To Hack Facebook Account Easily
With all influences on your children, we think that the parents should monitor and balance on your children's Facebook account. You should learn to hack Facebook account of them to find the best solution in order to control your children's activities on their Facebook account.
We hope that this post will be more useful for you. If you want to learn to hack Facebook account, contact us. We are always willing to help you.

Agua De Vida
Before Bessy Lim had her first facial, her life was a succession of stressful, 12-hour shifts. Her first spa experience awakened a latent desire: she wanted to help others find the relaxation she had forgone for so long. With that, she left her stressful career, earned a number of spa certifications, traveled abroad to learn the various therapeutic techniques and ways to pronounce "microdermabrasion" of spas overseas, and finally opened Agua De Vida. There, a corps of certified and licensed massage therapists team up with the spa specialist to mend tense muscles with massage, swaddle bodies in wraps, purify pores with facials, and primp hands and feet with nail services.
"I found everyone was very nice, The treatment were excellent and I'd go back."
"Bessy was wonderful and helped me relax and feel comfortable. They offered water/tea/coffee and the place is very clean and professional"
"Keep up the good work"

Jaco Marais is the winemaker for this South African winery, which is owned by the de Wet family. This Cabernet opens with blackberry and brier notes, with a slightly rustic edge throughout, before the smoky, coffee finish takes over. Still, very tasty fru —James Molesworth
This ubiquitous Spanish brand provides good value. A hint of pencil shavings highlights this dry-style cava. With its firm structure and cleansing finish, it would work either as an aperitif or with light foods. This Spanish producer is a trustworthy name —Bruce Sanderson

Okra: Tiny eggs or just jelly-like secretions?
I posted this in the Vegetable forum, but this may be more appropriate.
We're market gardening for the first year, and have a lot of okra seedlings that we just started hardening off today. The seedlings have all been kept inside with other vegetable seedlings (tomatoes, eggplant, peppers, sunflowers, basil, etc.).
Today we noticed that every okra seedling was thickly covered in tiny gel-like clear spheres. They look like eggs, but we haven't seen any insects. The strange thing is that it's only the okra seedlings - and ALL of the okra seedlings - that have the "egg-like" objects.
They are on the under side of each leaf. We have about 80 okra seedlings, and a few hundred of other vegetable seedlings. Here's a link with a picture and more description:
Anyone seen this before? Is it some kind of egg, or an okra secretion?
Thanks for any help!!

Adding/moving electrical outlet
rocks911January 2, 2013
I need to install an electrical outlet higher on a wall than an existing outlet. I am wanting to mount a television mid-wall in a room but dont have an electrical outlet mid-wall. There is an electrical outlet at the base of the wall, in the usual place, a couple of feet off the floor. This is an interior wall and I can access the attic above the wall.
Is there a tutorial on the web that explains how to do this?

It would be nice to have a picture! Thank you if one can be supplied.
Feb 02, 2013
I think, from the tiny pic in the newsletter, that it 'appears' to be a nice looking quilt I may want to make, but there is no quilt image at all, let alone larger, that I could get to appear. Since this was an issue long ago as well as now, I guess I won't be seeing it soon either. Too bad.

There is no image. Please update all quilt patterns because many of them do not have photos. And it's not the browser, unless the images are set to only show in Firefox or something.

Novice helmer Diego Olivares achieves mixed results in mild take on the hoary metaphor of sports as a means toward self-improvement.

Novice helmer Diego Olivares achieves mixed results in "The Wild Boars of Portici," a mild take on the hoary metaphor of sports as a means toward self-improvement. Set in a detention home for young drug offenders on the outskirts of the Neapolitan coastal town of Portici, drama of hoods learning rugby is underdeveloped, but good ensemble work propels it forward. A slight entry in the genre, this won't win many points in off-shore markets.Former rugby champion Ciro (Ninni Bruschetta) is in charge of activities for the inmates at the detention home. He resolves to coach the motley group, although none have seen a rugby ball before. Getting them to trust one another proves elusive, but Ciro manages to pull them into a winning team called the Wild Boars. There's the usual tough guy banter and the expected pre-game pep talk, but little excitement is generated by the games themselves. The one female inmate (Antonia Truppo) is a cipher throughout, and the multiple narrators lead to confusion. Handsome lensing and good camerawork keep the score on the plus side.
The Wild Boars of Portici

The streets of Colombo were strangely quiet in the hours after Mahinda Rajapaksa, the former Sri Lankan president, conceded defeat on Friday. The shutters were down at most shops and restaurants, the pavements were empty and the capital's red tuk-tuks were hurtling around virtually empty streets.
The contrast with the cacophonous celebrations that greeted the result of India's elections last year could hardly have been starker. There are, however, similarities between the two game-changing polls. Read more

The Matt Schaub Compendium
The Matt Schaub Compendium
Basically, my recent blog post is a collection of what is known and unknown about Schaub as he ended 2012.
Contains data. Contains known info. Contains speculation.
Frames the issue, puts the end of 2012 into a larger context.
Think it is fair. Not really interested in neener neener talk about Schaub because I think that is a distraction from just looking at what the knowns and unknowns are. That often pejoratives and tone people use detracts from just talking the football stuff.
It was a hard post to put together but I'm happy that I did. I learned things putting it together, and usually those are the best posts.
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
Wow.... lots of info. I like this chart:
Shows Matt was pretty hot in 2009, had a down year in 2010, got hot again for 2011, down again for 2012....... If this is a trend.....
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
You must have spent a lot of time on that piece, TC.
Good job as usual; I enjoyed reading it.
Will have to come back to read it again later.
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
They're going to cover Stephanie Stradley's piece in the Chronicle on Matt Radio (610) at 12:45
So they said.
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
Great work, Stephanie. This is an excellent resource.
You're spoiling us with stuff like this. Keep it up.
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
Schaub has the talent, potential, and physical tools needed to win it all.
What will stop him from doing so is between his ears, which is exactly what McNair is talking about.
If you believe Schaub will or will not is subjective. We all have our opinions on it.
But he certainly has the potential to do it, just has to actually do it now.
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
Lot of info there, appreciate the effort T_C.
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
nice post, steph . . . and it seems very fair to me . . . ;)
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
We felt that the end of 2012 was weird. And it was weird, not just for the team but for Schaub and for Kubiak's offense.
And I think it is important to look at the run trends too. I didn't pull those figures out separately, but the short distance run blocking went very south this season--that to me was a bigger concern than the over run numbers, which by conventional measurement numbers looked OK.
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
And McNair's odd comment about footspeed makes it sound partly a matter of trust, but partially also a physical thing. I watched his off-season rehab where he was working on a lot of footwork speed stuff. Was there a physical issue part of the season, the whole season? He didn't have to do much most of the early season because the defense was good then.
From a subjective eye-test view, the things I think that Schaub is normally pretty good with were things he didn't look good at by the end of the season. For whatever reasons. The question is whether this is a temp thing or things to come. End of season Schaub did not look like the whole "Same Ole Schaub" stuff that fans say every time there is a loss over the years. The numbers showed that there was something markedly different for him and the offense as a group.
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
I think the whole team just lost some of their edges toward the end of the season. I didn't see the same confident group I saw before Cushing got hurt.
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
Interesting thoughts about the mental issue. I guess when I think about Schaub and that Patriots game the thing that continues to pop in my head first is when he was under pressure, escapes to the right and is completely free and then throws the ball away. That play definitely could point to a mental aspect that was at issue during the tail end of our season.
Could it be Kubiak not trusting in Matt's ability to stay alive...umm...healthy? Never really thought about it honestly. I was thinking Matt was trying to protect himself toward the end so he could be part of the playoff push but then once there...he still kind of looked the same so my theory was crap lol.
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
Excellent well-balanced analysis to a very difficult and controversial subject. I suspect most of the questions will be answered in the upcoming preseason/season.
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
The snap counts after that are scary. Like seeing how many snaps Andrew Gardner got in the Patriots game. You can go all, next man up and all, but hard to see that after you have been used to your offensive linemen being inked into the lineup.
Brandon Brooks snap counts went up which was good and bad. Good in getting real game experience, bad in having to rely on a noob in key spots.
Will be VERY interested to see his progress from year 1 to 2. When he came to the Texans, he didn't know he'd be not playing for a road grader team. So for a big boy, he really needed to transform his body into a fitter dude.
He probably struggled in camp more than any player I can recall. You know, having to leave the field right before a play because he puked while in his stance.
Offensive lineman can't be that guy because they can't tap out no matter how long the drive. Rotational oline is not the ideal.
So it will be interesting to see his fitness this off-season. /Also interesting to see if the Texans finally cave in bringing a higher pick big boy DT into camp. Saints have those cheeseburger guys in their hot camps, but the Texans haven't had good fortune with them or made it a priority.
/a digression
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
Josh Eye knees? Kiss our Heinees!
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
I believe Schaub's foot started really bothering him towards the end of last yr, causing mobility/accuracy issues. But next season will tell the tale. Unfortunately if it doesn't work out it looks like Schaub will be a 10.5 mil cap hit if he's cut. Somebody deserves to be fired if it doesn't work out and the Texans lose the ability to re-sign Watt after this yr when you could probably sign him for less $$$$.
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
For me, it comes down to him being off his feet from December of 2011 through the playoffs of that year....then the slow build-up to make it back to the field.
IMO, he missed most of December 2011 and the playoffs, he had to have been weakened in terms of stamina and strength due to his type of injury.
His drop-off in December 2012, IMO, was mental AND physical. He was chartering waters he hadn't been in since two years prior in 2010. Athletes have a routine, they have rhythm. You get them off that, for whatever reason, and they can have a hard time remembering what it's like to play in certain times of year. Mental aspect AND physical aspect is what got the guy, IMO.
Have no issue with him as a leader, nor as a person. Think the world of him, actually, because he has his locker room in order there. Kubiak, though, I just cannot get behind the guy as our HC. He's lost GP. GP is writing messages on the sides of his shoes.
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
Re: The Matt Schaub Compendium
I promise I will give a full effort, though--Dunta style.

SimCity is unbelievably addictive, but you are at the mercy of the game's servers
It gives me great pleasure to assure everyone that SimCity, in fact, has been rebooted with great success. Let's ignore the elephant in the room for one second here and congratulate the team that developed this magnificent city-building simulator — if one were to measure addiction potential, quirky aesthetic appeal and the game's astounding level of detail on any kind of scale, EA and Maxis' latest instalment in the series would score perfect marks, and then some. The social features and pseudo-multiplayer (when working like they're meant to) really make you feel like you're a part of your own little world full of other cities and people who (are forced to) care about their neighbours. Everything is just groovy when SimCity's servers allow you to enjoy the little worlds you've created. But that's not very often.
Remember that kid in your class with the really cruel parent? Not the kind who wouldn't let their kid have any fun at all, but the one that would buy him or her, say, a cool bicycle and then take it away during exams? Now imagine SimCity's servers are that cruel parent and you're the kid — the only difference is that you've got exams every two hours. Since literally everything is "stored in the cloud", not only will you require an awesome Internet connection to connect to the game's servers and download frequent, large updates, you'll also literally need to be connected to the Internet at all times to play, enjoy, share, save, and eventually, load your game of SimCity. The sad part is that playing and enjoying SimCity are so ridiculously effortless, but made atrociously difficult by the (let's not lie about it) copy protection. There's nothing worse than not being able to play SimCity when you want to — not even seeing ten hours of hard work amount to literally nothing on reload.
The DRM-bashing hasn't ended, I assure you, but let's briefly explore the various things that make SimCity as addictive as it is. A deceptively simple, logical user interface lets you tweak every aspect of your city — the economy, plumbing, sewage, electricity, zoning, law and order, healthcare, and pretty much everything else associated with city management. "Logical" is the key word here — want to know why your middle-income citizens are unhappy? You'll know in a couple of clicks. Are your factory owners dissatisfied? The interface guarantees you'll know what kind of manpower they're looking for. It's largely the same SimCity you played in your younger days, but the intuitiveness of the UI cannot be overstated — it's very 2013 despite seeming overwhelming at first. The game's new social functions and "forced" multiplayer do add some value to the experience as well. SimCity allows you to share resources such as power, water, police vehicles and fire engines, or volunteer garbage and sewage disposal services to surrounding cities if you have additional capacity.
All of this is easily done in a click or two — it's not live and immediate, but it's a neat little addition that will see you through a period when you're low on Simoleons (that's the currency in case you're wondering). Add some cool new on-demand disasters like zombie apocalypses and meteor showers, and you're left with one of the best SimCity games to date in theory.
But the servers don't always work. Your cities don't always load, and when they do, they're not always in the same state you left them in, causing you to lose several hours of play. The area-per-city that you're allowed to play with is small as well — but this incentivises the player to develop more cities in a given location, arguably, as well as "ease" the load on SimCity's servers. The bottom line, however, is that the overall experience is only adversely affected by the always-on requirement, which, let's not kid ourselves, exists only to prevent piracy. But by the look of things, like Diablo III, it worked in curbing piracy, with SimCity selling over a million copies within two weeks of release. SimCity is available on PC and Mac.

ACL is one of Austin's biggest money makers. Friday is the first day of the first weekend of the Austin City Limits Music Festival. Three days, eight stages, 130 bands and for the first time Austin is hosting the party for two back-to-back weekends.
Almost 75,000 people a day will crowd into Zilker Park making the impact of ACL stretch beyond those 46 acres. Outside of Zilker Park, the primary economic impact zone stretches for about a mile and a half. That's where out-of-towners are sleeping, eating, drinking, and buying all things Austin.
Norm Wieland and his band of ACL veterans know where to go, what to do and how much each of them will spend.
"Probably $800 or $900 total," said Wieland.
That's the average amount each out-of-towner spends over the three day weekend. The $800 does not include an ACL wristband. But, it does include ---
"Beer. Waterloo Records. We always stop in there," said Wieland.
ACL is an easy sell.
"I think the music and festival business has become an industry of its own in Austin," said Angelos Angelou.
Angelou Economics researches ACL's impact on Austin. Last year the festival injected $102 million dollars into the economy. This year, with twice the number of days, the impact isn't doubling, but Angelou says it's very significant.
"We estimate about 70 percent increase in the economic impact," said Angelou.
That adds up to $175 million and the Bicycle Sport Shop, near Zilker Park, expects to get a piece of it. Stephen Pierce is renting bikes to a lot of out-of-towners.
"We purchased 30 extra bikes just for ACL," said Pierce. "We are super busy."
In past years about 50 percent of the ACL music fans were from Austin. This year, with two weekends, the number of locals has dropped.
"37 percent of attendees are from Austin and the rest are coming from outside. So great increase in the number of visitors to Austin," said Lisa Hickey, C3 Presents Marketing Director.
Visitors like Norm Wieland, who just arrived from Colorado. He's setting up for his 10th anniversary at ACL.
"I recommend it to everyone I know who's into music," said Wieland.
Businesses aren't just getting a big money bump this weekend and next. Quite a few of the bands, as well as some fans, are making a long week of it. They're sticking around all next week enjoying the city while they wait for round two of ACL.
