The S&P 500 touched a 14-month high on Tuesday as investors bet on a housing market comeback in 2010.
Plus, get calls on the brokers, tech and more.
In today's trading session, a total of 63 stocks in the S&P 500 reached new 52-week highs. Here is a look at those companies.
We all know that this time of year tends to be a time for taking stock of the 12 months just gone by, and making resolutions for the year to come. Unfortunately, for many of us, new resolutions often tend to be made in the aftermath of a holiday binge, meaning they can be both short-sighted (of course you want to lose weight after all the feasting—everybody does), and difficult to keep up with in the long run.
For most people, Google and other search engines are essential tools to navigate the Web. But the workings of the text ads, the blurbs that peddle goods and services on the search results pages, are largely hidden from Web users. The New York Times reports.

With Avatar opening at 12:01 am on Friday, everyone's waiting to see if the much-anticipated movie lives up to the hype, and how it performs at the box office. I got a sneak preview last week -- it certainly didn't disappoint me -- I was particularly wowed by the intricate, beautiful world James Cameron creates -- but we'll see if the live action-computer generated 3-D hybrid pulls everyone else in.
So much concern, so much talk about dealing with disappointment, and a perceived slowdown in Blackberry momentum amid so much media clamor about anything and everything Droid from Google and what does Research in Motion do? Blows everyone away, that's what.
This company is in a pitched battle with Apple and a dozen other smart phone makers, and while it is an exceptional swordsman, it faces a daunting task: Not merely adding subscribers, but keeping the ones it already has.
This should be an intriguing report from Oracle tonight after the bell, and potentially the best argument yet that this sleeper and not-so-gentle-giant is poised for a break-out.
In today's trading session, a total of 66 stocks in the S&P 500 reached new 52-week highs. Here is a look at those companies.

Because there are too many good reasons to buy stocks.
Defining how a forest can generate carbon credits could be the one landmark agreement coming out of the UN climate talks in Copenhagen. "We can't tell people to stop driving cars and trucks," says one proponent. "But we can stop deforestation."

Africa's Vikings: The Indonesians
Rory Carroll , writing for the Guardian (Jan. 12, 2004)
They were Africa's Vikings. Tough, daring voyagers who sailed thousands of miles to pluck riches from unmapped lands known today as Zimbabwe, Mozambique, South Africa and Nigeria.
Centuries before Europeans, mariners from Indonesia raided and traded across the continent, filling their vessels with gold and silver for the princes of Java and Sumatra.
In return they gave Africa the secrets of iron and bronze, exotic plants such as banana and yams, and a new culture enriched with music, architecture and spirituality.
And then the seafarers vanished. Some died, some returned home, others inter-married with the locals. So absorbed was the Asian influence that by the time the white man came he never noticed it.
So says a controversial new theory about Africa's development more than 2,000 years ago which could revive a racially tinged debate about whether outsiders fathered certain advances in technology, agriculture and art.
The researcher making these claims is no professional historian. Robert Dick-Read never finished university and has no academic qualifications.
But his self-confessed"obsession" with Indonesia's influence has fuelled more than 50 years' lonely slog collecting evidence which has been turned into a manuscript which will, he hopes, prove his case.
Some experts have rubbished Mr Dick-Read as misguided, but others say the"Indonesia Jones" thesis is plausible.
An unrelated attempt to demonstrate that mariners from south Asia could have reached west Africa is halfway to success: an expedition which reconstructed a ship illustrated in the reliefs of an 8th century Buddhist temple in Java has crossed the Indian Ocean and reached South Africa, destination Ghana.
After stopping in Cape Town last week the 15-strong crew will resume the voyage today, said Mujoko, an Indonesian crew member."We believe our ancestors came here. When we finish I think historians will appreciate that this voyage would have been possible."
It is generally agreed that approximately 1,500 years ago sailors from Indonesia and Malaysia, famed navigators who roved the Pacific, also sailed 3,700 miles west and settled Madagascar, a vast island off Mozambique.
It might be expected that they also explored the African mainland, just 150 miles further away, but unlike Madagascar there is little evidence: people on the continent do not resemble or talk like Indonesians.
Historians have noted fragments of Asian influence across Africa - plants, craftwork, instruments - but largely rejected the notion that it came via fleets of Indonesian double-outrigger canoes.
Inspired by a 1959 seminar at London's School of Oriental and African Studies, Mr Dick-Read, 73, has spent decades travelling the continent bolting those fragments into a radical theory of"Africa's vikings" which he hopes to publish this year.
Indonesian spices such as cassia and cinnamon which ancient Rome imported came not via India but east Africa after an epic sea voyage, he says, which would also explain how early iron age pottery spread so quickly in the first and second century AD down the coast from Kenya all the way to South Africa.
Plants such as banana, plantain and yam are widely believed to have originated in Indonesia and Mr Dick-Read cites oral and written accounts of rituals related to the food which suggest they reached west Africa too early for overland travellers.
Mr Dick-Read says pottery and bronze sculptures found in Nigeria also came from seafarers since they were too far from Saharan trade routes and too sophisticated for indigenous artwork of that time.
Sir Mervyn Brown, Britain's former ambassador to Madagascar and a historian of the region, found Mr Dick-Read's conclusions"generally plausible" and urged fresh research.
"Dick-Read has not provided any great new revelations in this area but has produced more detailed supporting evidence," he said."The influence in west Africa is not generally known, even among academics."
Other historians disagree. Robert Soper, an authority on east Africa, said there was no known evidence from artefacts, for example, of Indonesians spreading the iron age down the coast.

So what good are "special bonds", or any bond if one can't cash them in.
If Congress has to raise taxes to make good on those bonds, so be it.
Otherwise, it's a default.
Just like Greece asking investors to swap the existing bonds for longer maturities and lower rates.

Over 4,500 years ago, people went to a lot of effort to move, shape, and position great stones to create the circle of stones that we know today as Stonehenge. Join author Marc Aronson as he explores the discoveries that archaeologist Mike Pearson is making about Stonehenge and the area around it. Illus. with photos.
Fascinating, but not sure young middle schoolers will be caught up in this topic unless it is connected to something else they find important.

How was Stonehenge used and did the people who used it live nearby? Subsequent digs find the remains of small houses and other structures on the Salisbury Plain. Also a long-buried skeleton is found that brings more information and mystery to the site. Good maps and color photos.

Peachtree Added 16 Hotels, 3 Mgmt. Contracts in 2013
Monday February 3rd, 2014 - 9:29AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
ATLANTA—Peachtree Hotel Group added 16 hotels representing 2,015 rooms and three third-party management contracts in 2013.
The company projects it will add 12-14 hotel assets, both acquisitions and new-builds, and up to six, third-party management contracts by year's end.
Thus far this year, the company has three hotel assets under contract for a total of 483 rooms.
"All metrics point towards 2014 being another strong year for the hospitality industry, and we plan to aggressively pursue projects where we believe we can provide the best service and add value as either an owner and/or operator," stated Greg Friedman, Peachtree CEO. "Additionally, we are selectively considering certain development opportunities and expect to execute on two-to-four new builds this year."
Jatin Desai, Peachtree CIO, stated, "We are pursuing sites that have high barriers to entry with multiple demand generators and long-term growth opportunities."
Peachtree disposed of 10 assets in 2013 and also became an approved third-party operator for select Marriott brands and already has added two properties to its third-party management portfolio. Peachtree will invest in excess of $20 million during 2014 to upgrade its owned-hotel portfolio, according to the company.
"Between operating performance and acquisition opportunities, we forecast another strong year for Peachtree and the hospitality industry overall," stated Mitul Patel, Peachtree COO. "We expect that the majority of our portfolio will experience moderate RevPAR growth and that the cost of capital will remain historically inexpensive over the coming 12 months. All of these factors will contribute to a fertile transaction market for 2014."

Jason LaBarbera G ANA 30 Days
LaBarbera was reassigned to AHL Norfolk on Friday.
LaBarbera's stint with the Ducks only lasted three days, and he unsurprisingly did not make an appearance. The demotion means that Frederik Andersen (upper body) is healthy enough to at least serve as an emergency backup in Friday's game against the Kings.
Jason LaBarbera G ANA 1 Month
LaBarbera was recalled from AHL Norfolk on Monday.
LaBarbera will likely serve as the backup goaltender until Frederik Andersen returns from injured reserve. The Ducks place Ilya Bryzgalov on waivers Sunday, and with Andersen still unavailable, the Ducks will add the 35-year-old for depth. In five games with the Ducks earlier in the season, LaBarbera went 2-0-1 with a 2.61 GAA and .909 save percentage. His recall will likely be a short one, however, as Andersen is expected to return in the near future.
Jason LaBarbera G ANA 3 Months
LaBarbera was waived by the Ducks on Monday and later reassigned to AHL Norfolk, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports.
Activated from injured reserve last Thursday, LaBarbera acted as the Ducks' backup for two games before he was given his walking papers. With Ilya Bryzgalov now ready to play after finishing his conditioning stint with Norfolk, LaBarbera looks like he'll remain with the organization as strictly a depth goalie.
Jason LaBarbera G ANA 4 Months
LaBarbera (hand) was activated from injured reserve Thursday, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports.
The Ducks indicated just eight days earlier that LaBarbera would miss two-to-three weeks with a broken bone in his hand, so his early activation could just be a paper move in anticipation of Ilya Bryzgalov's promotion to the Ducks. Even if LaBarbera is truly healthy, Bryzgalov's larger cap hit virtually guarantees that he'll be the team's top backup once he gets some conditioning under his belt, ensuring that LaBarbera's stay with the Ducks will be a short one. That being said, the Ducks will play back-to-back games over the weekend, meaning LaBarbera could get the start in one of the games before departing for the minors.
Jason LaBarbera G ANA 4 Months
LaBarbera is out two-to-three weeks with a broken bone in his hand, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports.
In the wake of the injuries to LaBarbera and John Gibson (groin), the Ducks will audition veteran backstop Ilya Bryzgalov, who figures to sign with the team shortly. Even if Gibson doesn't beat LaBarbera back from IR, the Ducks could simply opt to keep rolling with Bryzgalov as their backup if he proves serviceable.
Jason LaBarbera G ANA 4 Months
LaBarbera is considered day-to-day with an upper-body injury, Eric Stephens of the Los Angeles Times reports.
When LaBarbera's injury occurred is unknown, but it could cause the Ducks to call up someone from AHL Norfolk. Rickard Rakell could draw into the lineup Monday if LaBarbera is unavailable.
Jason LaBarbera G ANA 4 Months
LaBarbera stopped all 15 shots he faced in relief of Frederik Andersen in Saturday's loss to San Jose.
While LaBarbera looked good Saturday, he won't see much action behind starter Frederik Andersen. While LaBarbera might get a rare start at some point, he will return to being the third-stringer once John Gibson (groin) returns form injury.
Jason LaBarbera G ANA 4 Months
LaBarbera stopped 12 of 14 shots in relief of Frederik Andersen in a 6-2 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.
LaBarbera had to come in for Andersen on Thursday as well. It's a bit alarming for Andersen owners that he's having a tough time, but he still has a solid record and is the go-to guy in net on a really good team.
Jason LaBarbera G ANA 5 Months
LaBarbera stopped 14 of 16 shots in relief Wednesday against the Kings, earning the victory in a shootout.
Thrust into the rivalry game midway through the second period after Frederik Andersen yielded three goals, LaBarbera didn't exactly shut down the Kings, but was able to pick up the win when two late Anaheim goals extended the game to overtime. LaBarbera would then deny Anze Kopitar in the shootout to lift the Ducks to a come-from-behind win. Despite the respectable performance Wednesday, LaBarbera's career track record wouldn't suggest he's deserving of extended playing time, so look for the Ducks to continue to start Andersen on a near-every game basis.
Jason LaBarbera G ANA 5 Months
LaBarbera stopped 33 of 36 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Islanders.
LaBarbera was in tough from the get-go in this one, due to a last-minute starting nod coupled with the absence of stars Corey Perry and Ryan Getzlaf (both had the flu). The journeyman performed well and allowed the Ducks to grab a point, but his role going forward remains largely that of a third-stringer as the team is expected to make a move for another netminder with John Gibson (groin) recently being ruled out for six weeks.

It's about how Iraq's military can't seem to get their act together, which is allowing ISIS to thrive.
The author found a way to mention Bush, but the word "Obama" isn't anywhere in there.
I was helping a friend pull an engine from the local junk yard for his truck this weekend. This typically means that you're going to have to cut a couple hoses and a belt or two. It was also useful to push the valve to check to see if the A/C system was still pressurized. Of the 4 of us there (which included an actually trained mechanic and a guy best described as a "maker"), I was the only one there with a knife at hand. I believe my buddy mentioned something about having some cutters somewhere in his tool bag, but I had the cutting job done before he could reach for it.
It always amazes me at the number of folks that don't carry a pocket knife with them. Whether it be a Victorinox Swiss Army knife, or something more sturdy and single purpose, like my Spyderco Endura.
I'm a big believer that, unless you're in a location where carrying such things are barred by law, you should always have a good EDC knife on you. I know some people love carrying specialized fighting knives like the Kabar TDI (I believe that's what Erin likes to carry), which is great, but I tend to think of EDC knives as more multipurpose than that.
My Endura has been used for everything from the example above, to opening boxes, to cutting up fruit, to cutting and serving a cake. While I haven't been required to use it in self-defense, it is a favorite of the martial artists I know and I'm confident that it will stand up to that task.
If you don't already have and carry one, it's one of the most useful things that you could possibly carry in your pocket. While you can spend big bucks on a Benchmade, high end Cold Steel, or Spyderco blades (hey, $70 is a lot to some folks. I know I resisted dropping that money on a knife), you can also get perfectly good blades for less (I'd recommend CRKT or Kershaw). I'd also highly recommend a locking blade, and, if you're going to carry it in your pocket, you probably don't want a blade over 4 inches.

Less exciting than I was expecting, but exciting nonetheless. Strange that they issue guns that aren't drop-safe, don't you think?
Oh, so, what you're saying is that it didn't go off when it hit the floor, it went off when he pulled the trigger. Well, I'm glad that no one got hurt. We just need to get that officer some more training.

Uh huh.
Well at least there's that.
So… I should have probably posted something about this earlier but…
Anyone interested in another Bidet Shoot in June?
The Firearms and Ammunition Technology Division (FATD), Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) has received inquiries from the public concerning the proper use of devices recently marketed as "stabilizing braces." These devices are described as "a shooter's aid that is designed to improve the single-handed shooting performance of buffer tube equipped pistols." The device claims to enhance accuracy and reduce felt recoil when using an AR-style pistol.
These items are intended to improve accuracy by using the operator's forearm to provide stable support for the AR-type pistol. ATF has previously determined that attaching the brace to a firearm does not alter the classification of the firearm or subject the firearm to National Firearms Act (NFA) control. However, this classification is based upon the use of the device as designed. When the device is redesigned for use as a shoulder stock on a handgun with a rifled barrel under 16 inches in length, the firearm is properly classified as a firearm under the NFA.
The NFA, 26 USCS § 5845, defines "firearm," in relevant part, as "a shotgun having a barrel or barrels of less than 18 inches in length" and "a rifle having a barrel or barrels of less than 16 inches in length." That section defines both "rifle" and "shotgun" as "a weapon designed or redesigned, made or remade, and intended to be fired from the shoulder…." (Emphasis added).
Pursuant to the plain language of the statute, ATF and its predecessor agency have long held that a pistol with a barrel less than 16 inches in length and an attached shoulder stock is a NFA "firearm." For example, inRevenue Ruling 61-45, Luger and Mauser pistols "having a barrel of less than 16 inches in length with an attachable shoulder stock affixed" were each classified as a "short barrel rifle…within the purview of the National Firearms Act."
In classifying the originally submitted design, ATF considered the objective design of the item as well as the stated purpose of the item. In submitting this device for classification, the designer noted that
The intent of the buffer tube forearm brace is to facilitate one handed firing of the AR15 pistol for those with limited strength or mobility due to a handicap. It also performs the function of sufficiently padding the buffer tube in order to reduce bruising to the forearm while firing with one hand. Sliding and securing the brace onto ones forearm and latching the Velcro straps, distributes the weight of the weapon evenly and assures a snug fit. Therefore, it is no longer necessary to dangerously "muscle" this large pistol during the one handed aiming process, and recoil is dispersed significantly, resulting in more accurate shooting without compromising safety or comfort.
In the classification letter of November 26, 2012, ATF noted that a "shooter would insert his or her forearm into the device while gripping the pistol's handgrip-then tighten the Velcro straps for additional support and retention. Thus configured, the device provides the shooter with additional support of a firearm while it is still held and operated with one hand." When strapped to the wrist and used as designed, it is clear the device does not allow the firearm to be fired from the shoulder. Therefore, ATF concluded that, pursuant to the information provided, "the device is not designed or intended to fire a weapon from the shoulder." In making the classification ATF determined that the objective design characteristics of the stabilizing brace supported the stated intent.
ATF hereby confirms that if used as designed—to assist shooters in stabilizing a handgun while shooting with a single hand—the device is not considered a shoulder stock and therefore may be attached to a handgun without making a NFA firearm. However, ATF has received numerous inquiries regarding alternate uses for this device, including use as a shoulder stock. Because the NFA defines both rifle and shotgun to include any "weapon designed or redesigned, made or remade, and intended to be fired from the shoulder," any person who redesigns a stabilizing brace for use as a shoulder stock makes a NFA firearm when attached to a pistol with a rifled barrel under 16 inches in length or a handgun with a smooth bore under 18 inches in length.
The GCA does not define the term "redesign" and therefore ATF applies the common meaning. "Redesign" is defined as "to alter the appearance or function of." See e.g. Webster's II New College Dictionary, Third Ed. (2005). This is not a novel interpretation. For example ATF has previously advised that an individual possesses a destructive device when possessing anti-personnel ammunition with an otherwise unregulated 37/38mm flare launcher. See ATF Ruling 95-3. Further, ATF has advised that even use of an unregulated flare and flare launcher as a weapon results in the making of a NFA weapon. Similarly, ATF has advised that, although otherwise unregulated, the use of certain nail guns as weapons may result in classification as an "any other weapon."
The pistol stabilizing brace was neither "designed" nor approved to be used as a shoulder stock, and therefore use as a shoulder stock constitutes a "redesign" of the device because a possessor has changed the very function of the item. Any individual letters stating otherwise are contrary to the plain language of the NFA, misapply Federal law, and are hereby revoked.
Any person who intends to use a handgun stabilizing brace as a shoulder stock on a pistol (having a rifled barrel under 16 inches in length or a smooth bore firearm with a barrel under 18 inches in length) must first file an ATF Form 1 and pay the applicable tax because the resulting firearm will be subject to all provisions of the NFA.
If you have any questions about the issues addressed in this letter, you may contact the Firearms and Ammunition Technology Division at firstname.lastname@example.com or by phone at (304) 616-4300.

In case you guys didn't know, I'm a pretty big fan of knives, swords, and other weapons that predate the gun. As such, one of the Youtube folks I watch is Lindybeige, and came across this video on the Messer:
The part I found interesting is right at the beginning of the video. Apparently, it was illegal in Germany for most people to wander the streets with a sword. Not terribly surprising. What was surprising to me was that apparently the Germans had defined a sword in such a way that the messer was, legally speaking, not a sword. The reason? It hand a knife handle on it instead of a sword hilt.
Anyone else instantly make the connection to the modern assault weapons bans where one rifle is ok because it has a traditional rifle grip on it, but another is evil because it has a pistol grip? Or better yet, my Beretta Cx4 that has a "thumb hole grip" that I can stick my entire hand through, and isn't a pistol grip because of a thin piece of plastic?
Yep… making things illegal because they're scary looking/designed for the military has been going on for centuries.
A few months ago I posted my writeup on the Front Bumper. If you want to know why I picked up this bumper, go read the first section of that post. I'll follow roughly the same format here.

I'm hoping that your family and friends are having a better Christmas season than mine are.
Just got news that one of my friends had a stroke last night. He's in the hospital, and the doctors are saying that he probably has 3 or 4 days to live.
A friend of a friend is in the beginning stages of a divorce with an abusive husband. She's taken out an order of protection on him, and had to call the cops on him a couple times in the past couple months. Oh, and that includes when he kicked the driver's side door hard enough to leave damage while she was in the car and then take off with their 3 year old kid a couple days ago. I'll be meeting with her in the morning to go over some hand-to-hand self defense stuff, and maybe get her going on buying a gun (the gun thing *will* happen, it's just a question of when).
Hope you're having a less eventful. Excuse while I go hug my wife.
Well… since it seems like all the cool people (ok… maybe just Borepatch) is posting Christmas music, so here's mine:
I was going to post "Christmas at Ground Zero," but I think someone beat me to that one.

I ust don't use it because it sounds odd to me...
Plus I am proud to call my wife my wife.
Lol....This thread and the 'show us your swmbo' thread were the 1 and 2 threads in New posts just now.
Like my snazzy new avatar? Get Sons of Zymurgy swag, here, and brew with the best.Revvy's one of the cool reverends. He has a Harley and a t-shirt that says on the back "If you can read this, the bitch was Raptured. - Madman
I gotta tell ya, just between us girls, that Revvy is HOT. Very tall, gorgeous grey hair and a terrific smile. He's very good looking in person, with a charismatic personality... he drives like a ****ing maniac! - YooperBrew
I think of my wife as she who must be obeyed because, well, she should!
NOT because she's a scary aweful person, but because that is the deal we made to each other when we got married. If she looks me in the eye and says, "I don't want you to do that." I obey because I love and respect her, and I trust her to help guide me to a better life. And it goes both ways. There are times when I have to grab her and say, "Cut that out, you are embarrassing us and I want you to zip it." And ya know what? she does it and thanks me later.
THAT is an important part of a REAL partnership! Not just the loving supportive feel good Hallmark channel fluff.
A great man knows that he knows NOTHING
I will admit.... she has to do that to me a LOT more often than the other way around... but that's just cause I'm generally an idiot

Why should a single number separate wine lovers from each other?
Posted: December 18, 2014 By MaryAnn Worobiec
One of the conversations going around (and around) in wine circles lately has been the discussion about balance, alcohol and the imaginary line in the sand of 14 percent alcohol.
The other day I was picking a wine to bring to a friend's house for dinner. My friend is one of those "13.9 percent good, 14 percent bad" people. We've had multiple conversations about the topic, and I've even gone so far as to serve him wine in paper bags to distract him from this number--and to prove that he can, in fact, enjoy a wine at 14 percent alcohol or higher. He's unphased.
But the process of trying to find a wine we would both like made me sad that his wine world is so small, when there are a lot of great bottles I would have loved to share with him. Why do there have to be "sides" in the world of wine?

How do you help someone who claims they don't know how to describe what they're tasting? Just find a beverage they can relate to
Posted: December 11, 2014 By MaryAnn Worobiec
The other day I was out to lunch with a friend who mentioned she had tried a wine she liked. I asked her to tell me about it, but her response was to blush and say she didn't feel comfortable. "I don't get all those flavors and stuff you do," she confessed.
Part of me was devastated. We had just shared medical secrets, family concerns and stories of heartbreak with each other, but when it comes to finding cherries or spice in a Merlot, we're suddenly no longer close? So I told my friend that I'm sure she is in fact capable of finding the differences between two beverages, and that I could prove it.

Napa doesn't really have an off-season: Wine lovers can appreciate the views, delicious wines and awesome dining options any time of year. Even so, it used to be that November was one of the sleepier times around here—the period between the rush of harvest and the twinkling of holiday lights. But two relatively new events are turning November in Napa into one of the most exciting times to visit: the Napa Valley Film Festival and Flavor Napa Valley.

A happenstance trip, a good story, and an affordable, delicious red
Posted: November 4, 2014 By MaryAnn Worobiec
I'm a sucker for origin stories, in part because it's something that superheroes and wine lovers have in common. Just as Spiderman was bitten by a radioactive spider, most wine lovers have stories about getting bit by the wine bug. Sometimes our wine mythology is based in destiny, sometimes it's chance. There's usually a great bottle of wine at the beginning, although mine was quite modest.

Seattle, WA (Sports Network) - Brad Miller hit two home runs, including a grand slam in the fifth inning, to help the Seattle Mariners to a 7-5 win over the Oakland Athletics on Saturday.
Justin Smoak hit a two-run home run for the Mariners, who have won three of their last four games. Brandon Maurer (5-8) gave up two runs on six hits with a walk and five strikeouts over 5 1/3 innings.
"I'm so happy for him because he's been great in his last three outings," said Seattle manager Eric Wedge about Maurer. "He's been really consistent and making strides in his composure and handling emotions."
The loss by Oakland means the team will finish with the second seed in the American League as Boston clinched the top spot with the Athletics' loss. Oakland will face Detroit when its series gets underway.
"We know how deep they are and how talented they are," said Oakland first baseman Brandon Moss. "It's one of the tougher matchups you can draw, but if you win you can be better prepared for the next series."
Moss hit a two-run home run while Alberto Callaspo smacked a solo shot and drove in two for the Athletics, who saw starter Jarrod Parker (12-8) give up seven runs on seven hits over 4 1/3 innings.
Seattle took the lead in the second inning as Raul Ibanez walked with one out and Smoak followed with his 20th homer of the season for a 2-0 lead.
The A's got one back in the third thanks to a sacrifice fly from Coco Crisp, but Miller's seventh of the season in the home half made it a 3-1 game.
In the fifth, Dustin Ackley, Mike Zunino and Nick Franklin all singled to load the bases for Miller, who knocked a pitch out of the park for a grand slam and a 7-1 lead.
Callaspo's RBI single in the sixth and Moss' two-run homer followed by a solo shot from Callaspo in the seventh made it a 7-5 game.
Oakland loaded the bases with two outs in the eighth, but Yoervis Medina struck out Jed Lowrie to end the frame.
Danny Farquhar pitched a 1-2-3 ninth for his 16th save of the season.
Moss' home run was his 30th of the season and he is the first Athletic to
reach 30 since Jack Cust hit 33 in 2008 ... Oakland went 2-for-10 with runners
in scoring position and left 10 on base ... Seattle has won 11 of the 18 games
with Oakland this season.
Vanderbilt quarterback Patton Robinette said Friday he is walking away from football to enter medical school.
Regan Smith substituted for Kyle Larson in the No. 42 Chip Ganassi Racing Chevrolet in Sunday's Sprint Cup Series race at Martinsville Speedway after Larson was sidelined due to additional medical tests following his fainting spell on Saturday.
If contradiction was an Olympic sport, Chip Kelly would certainly be medal-worthy judging by his performance at the NFL's owners meeting but the Eagles coach might have to settle for silver because Daniel Snyder's critics will take the gold every time.
There isn't much after that. The Miami Marlins are loaded up for a playoff push -- likely through a wild card spot -- and the New York Mets are up-and- coming but still raw. The Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies, former powerhouses of the division, are going through rebuilds and won't contend anytime soon.
The Los Angeles Clippers have signed guard Lester Hudson to a 10-day contract.
Mathieu Perreault will be back in the lineup when the Winnipeg Jets host the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday.
