November 19, 2012By Bob Lapadot of Garrett High School
If you weren't in the Bateman Gym Friday night you missed a great atmosphere and an even better game. We battled DeKabl for 32 minutes and came up 2 points short at the end. I was so proud of our team for their effort and the way they picked up our new defense that we installed trying to stop DeKalb's 2 high scorers. We executed our game plan perfectly, unfortunately we shot 7/14 from the free throw line which ended up hurting us. We continue to learn and grow as a team and I was very encouraged by this game.
Brandi Dawson led us with 20 points, 7 reb, and 4 assists. Katie Wisel played a great game with 10 points, 7 assists, and 6 rebounds. Taylor Smith battled all night with DeKalb's 6'2" center and ended up with 8 points and 8 rebounds. Emily Somers had 7 points and 3 rebounds, but her defense on DeKalb's great scoring guard was fantastic. Becca Oliver had the huge task of face guarding DeKalb's center all night and she along with help from Taylor held her to 2 points and 2 offensive rebounds. She had been averaging over 20 points and 20 rebounds! Our bench came in and hlped us all night, Britmarie Yarian, Emma Riedly, and Rachel Stafford all gave us good minutes and helped us when they were in the game. Also, Bailey Sutton's work in practice was a big reason why we were able to do such a good job on the big center!
Finally, I would like to thank the fans and all the people that helped make the Bateman Gym such a great place to play! The noise level was so high and our team really fed off the crowd. Let's make this a nightly thing both for the boys and girls!!
We are back in action tomorrow night at home against the 6th ranked Angols Hornets.

Tendulkar happens to be a big Kishore Kumar fan.
It was a brief conversation near the pitch at the Eden Park in Auckland. India was playing a One-Day International (March 1994) and Navjot Singh Sidhu had reported with a stiff neck. Skipper Mohammed Azahruddin asked, "Rafi, open karega" (Rafi, do you want to open)? Manager Ajit Wadekar looked on.
"Not if it is for just this match," replied Rafi. "Well, if you score, I promise you the slot." Rafi made 82 and was a different batsman from that point.
This Rafi happened to be Sachin Tendulkar. But why Rafi? Because Azharuddin had heard him hum a popular Mohammed Rafi song in the bathroom. And the name stuck.
It is another matter that Tendulkar happens to be a big Kishore Kumar fan.
Pal Pal Dilke Paas Tum Rehti Ho.., the soft Kishore Kumar number was a give away even as a Do Not Disturb sign stared at you from his hotel room door. "It helps me relax". For Tendulkar, music, and later movies, provided a welcome break from the hard grind on the field. He also revelled in the company of colleagues.
It was one such 'fun afternoon' that must still be sending shivers down his spine. On the 2002 West Indies tour, a few team members went to the Accra Beach in Barbados. Some could swim. Grabbing swim boards, they ventured into the sea. Our man, daring as always, became adventurous and soon realised he had left his colleagues behind.
"Can you feel the bottom," he shouted, in the process discovering that he could not himself. Slowly panic set in. It was left to Rahul Dravid, Zaheer Khan and Ashish Nehra to pull him back to safety.
For the rest of the tour, Tendulkar did not go near a beach.
For old friends, he has not changed a bit. Says former team physio Ali Irani: "His humility is really amazing. I remember the early days when he would sleep in my room because Kapil (Dev) was his room partner and too senior. My god, I had to sleep near the door because he would sleep walk. I had to put table and chairs to block the door. He would get up in the middle of the night and start batting. He is a gem".
First car
For a man who now owns a Ferrari, Tendulkar is said to have bought his first car, a Maruti 800, on loan. He carried a pre-recorded tape to the showroom and the first thing he did was to play it and check the music system. The colour and engine of the car were not a priority. Even those days he loved driving. In fact, to watch the 1992 World Cup final, he drove a good 100km out of Bombay to follow the game at a farm house. He has still preserved the first walkman that he had bought on a foreign tour.
Tendulkar, a National treasure, as Kapil Dev would like us to remember, has best impressed with his humility. "Not for me," he would say when asked to talk about his game. "I mostly follow the simple principle of playing the ball on merit." Obviously, he has remembered an early lesson from Sunil Gavaskar, who advocated respect for the bowlers in the initial stages, for the batsman to survive and thrive.
For Tendulkar, results, and not milestones, matter. His career record at this stage shows 248 not out against Bangladesh as his highest Test score. It is an irony to see his best is documented against Bangladesh.
By the way, Tendulkar later progressed to Dire Straits. This time the loud music was a give away.

You probably know Sugru already. If not, it's an air-curing rubber that can be formed by hand. It bonds to most materials and turns into a strong, flexible silicone rubber overnight. My "Owl Stampmaker" is a very simple 3D modell. You can use free software like Blender or Google SketchUp to design something similiar. Shapeways "Detailed Material" is perfect for making a mold for stamps. The stampmaker at the example has the dimension 30 x 30 mm (1.2 x 1.2 in) and is 2 mm (0.08 in) thick. The embossed parts should have a depth of 1 mm (0.04 in) After you've received your stampmaker, you'll be able to create your stamps with Sugru. What you need: 1. A negative mold (the stampmaker), made via Shapeways 3D printing service. 2. Sugru. 3. A handle which should fit to the size of the stamp. E.g. a piece of wood or you can create the handle via Shapeways, too. 4. Liquid soap. 5. A knife. Put a thin layer (2 mm) of Sugru on a handle which should have approximately the same size as the stamp. Make sure the Sugru on the handle is smooth and plane. Put some liquid soap on the stampmaker. This will help to detach the sugru from the mold. Press the stampmaker against the Sugru and remove it without destroying the imprint you made. Grease some liquid soap on a plane surface and scrub the Sugru-Stamp against it. Don't use too much pressure! This will help to make the stamp perfect smooth and plane. Use a knife to cut away all unused Sugru on the edges of the stamp. Don't forget to clean the stampmaker. This way, you can make as much stamps as you like. Almost done! Let it dry overnight and have fun with your new, handmade stamp! You'll need an ink pad with stamping ink for printing! Here is a picture of my first attempt. I'm already happy with the result, but I'm sure it can be still optimized. The good thing: you can make as much stamps as you like! Have fun!

It seems to be not very detailed but it's worth a try. There are already a few companys out there who provide the service of making a custumized stamp ... You send a picture and get the finished stamp. The good thing by using Sugru: it is really cheap. After you made a "stampmaker" via Shapeways you can make as many stamps as you like for less than a dollar for each!]]> MichaelMueller 2012-06-07T12:05:11-00:00 Re: Make stamps by using Shapeways and Sugru http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=49521&th=9772#msg_49521 Youknowwho4eva 2012-06-07T12:56:37-00:00 Re: Make stamps by using Shapeways and Sugru http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=49531&th=9772#msg_49531 I am looking at 3-D printing as a possibility to produce more than a few stamps per day and in any case the in between step of making a mold is not prefererred for a variety of other technical reasons. The real challenge would be to print the text die directly from the 3-D printer and the material used should have the capability to transfer the ink evenly, to deliver a perfect impression.]]> Wil-O 2012-06-07T18:19:06-00:00 Re: Make stamps by using Shapeways and Sugru http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=49533&th=9772#msg_49533 I agree, there are certainly better ways to make an address stamp or a stamp which is only needed once. Maybe Shapeways bring the old stamp-material back, but as Mike said, it might be too expensive. I'm working on a letter-set to make textstamps with sugru. Hope this will work well. http://www.shapeways.com/model/595021/sugru_text_stampmaker. html ]]> MichaelMueller 2012-06-07T19:30:11-00:00 Re: Make stamps by using Shapeways and Sugru http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=49556&th=9772#msg_49556 I have seen rubbery or silicon type products come by.

Latest Baboon Stories
The most extensive DNA study to-date of Africa's rarest monkey reveals that the species had an intriguing sexual past.
Evolutionarily speaking, baboons may be our more distant cousins among primates. But when it comes to our experiences with malaria over the course of time, it seems the stories of our two species have followed very similar plots.
Some male and female baboons engage in strictly platonic, sexless relationships. Male companionship comes in handy to females and their infants, as other baboons tend to pester less when female company is shared by their favorite male buddy.
In decisions about where to eat, baboons don't all have an equal say, according to a report in the November 20th issue of Current Biology, a Cell Press publication.
By David Robinson IN HIS great series of love poems Dain do Eimhir (Poems to Eimhir), the poet Sorley MacLean writes about visiting Edinburgh. When it wasn't lit up by love, he found it "a grey town without darting sun"; when it was, it became transformed - "refulgent, white- starred".
A report in Monday's online edition of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences found female baboons that were raised with their fathers were noted to have matured earlier and experienced a longer reproductive life than other baboons.
After 34 days in indoor shelters, many of the animals at the Haifa Zoo got a breath of outdoor air - if not a taste of freedom - for the first time on Tuesday.
Unruly gangs are raiding the expensive homes that line the spectacular coast of South Africa's Cape Peninsula, clearing out pantries, emptying fridges, and defecating over the designer furnishings.
A new species of monkey identified in Tanzania's highlands last year is an even more remarkable find than thought -- it is a new genus of animal, scientists said on Thursday.
Latest Baboon Reference Libraries
The drill (Mandrillus leucophaeus) is a primate of the Cercopithecidae (Old-world Monkeys) family. It is closely related to the baboons and even more closely to the mandrill. The drill is similar in appearance to the mandrill, but lacks the colorful face. It is found only in Cameroon, Nigeria, and north of the Sanaga River. It is also found on the coastal island of Bioko, part of Equatorial Guinea. The drill is one of Africa's most endangered primates.
The Chacma Baboon (Papio ursinus) is from the Old World monkey family. It has a body length of up to 45.28 in (115 cm) and a weight from 33.07 to 68.34 lb (15 to 31 kg). It is the largest and heaviest baboon species. It has dark-brown or grey hair with a long snout. Unlike other baboons, the males do not have a mane. Its range is southern Africa and extends south of Angola, Zambia and Mozambique to South Africa. Sizes and skin coloring can vary within that range. Like all baboons it...
The olive baboon (Papio anubis), also called the Anubis baboon, is a baboon from the Old World monkey family. Its name comes from the Egyptian god Anubis. The olive baboon has the largest range area of all baboons, extending south from Mali to Ethiopia and to Tanzania. Isolated populations are also in some mountainous regions of the Sahara. It inhabits savannahs, steppes and forest areas. The skin of the Olive Baboon is olive-green colored with a black face. It lives in mixed gender...
The Hamadryas baboon (Papio hamadryas) is a baboon from the Old World monkey family. It is the northernmost of all the baboons. Its range extends from the Red Sea in Egypt to Eritrea, Ethiopia and Somalia. It also lives on the Arabian Peninsula. It is uncertain if humans introduced this population or not. Apart from the striking size difference between the sexes males are often twice as large as females. This is common to all baboons. This species also shows sexual dimorphism in...
The Grey-cheeked Mangabey (Lophocebus albigena) is an Old World monkey found in the forests of Central Africa. They range from Cameroon down to Gabon and across in western Uganda. The Grey-cheeked Mangabey is a dark monkey. It looks in shape overall like a small, hairy baboon. Its thick brown fur is almost black in its forest home. It has a slightly golden mane around the neck. The sexes are similar, with the males slightly larger than the females. The Grey-cheeked Mangabey lives in a...

Another apparently random killing in Quezon City
More News from Jeannette I. Andrade
More News from Philippine Daily Inquirer
MANILA, Philippines—One of three motorcycle-riding men gunned down Friday afternoon a butcher who simply stepped out of his home in Quezon City after a meal, police said.
The assailants, who were on two motorcycles, sped away after the attack on Julius Francis Cabales, 38, of Kasunduan Street in Barangay Commonwealth, who died instantly from multiple bullet wounds.
Senior Police Officer 1 Cristituto Zaldarriaga of the Quezon City Police District Criminal Investigation and Detection Unit said that the attack happened around 3:30 p.m. in front of Cabales' home.
Zaldarriaga said that according to witnesses, Cabales had just taken a late lunch and momentarily stepped out of his home when the three men on motorcycles arrived, stopping in front of the butcher.
One of the men got off his motorcycle, drew a handgun and started firing at the stunned Cabales until he keeled over, dead. The gunman then sped away with his cohorts toward Commonwealth Avenue.
Scene of the crime operatives recovered four bullet casings and two slugs from a .45-caliber pistol at the site of the shooting.
Zaldarriaga said that they had yet to establish a motive for Cabales' killing.

Between Riverside and Crazy Bares Its Wounds

An elegant rehash, Jay Parini's One Matchless Time doesn't escape its foundational shadows. The Frost and Steinbeck biographer presents the well-worn life storyFalconer to Falkner to Faulkner, unexceptional adolescence and apprenticeship, unhappy marriage, whiskey picklingfailing to account for Faulkner's transformation from dandified slacker and middling poet to masterful creator of America's most complex, beautiful works of fiction. Compositionally, Parini's sleek prose falls into a lulling pattern: historical patch, introduction of subsequent book, critical reception, plot summary, critical analysis, critical patch (repeat).
There's shrift given to Faulkner's Mardi Gras dabbling with repeat roommate, openly gay painter William Spratling, and his affinity for a "largely" gay posse of friends in NYC, but Parini regularly brushes away "the slight homoerotic tinge," even after tanked Faulkner and Spratling paint teenage Bob Anderson's penis green, sending him naked and confused into the French Quarter.
Exhibiting more chutzpah, Larry McCaffery and Michael Hemmingson play Cowley with Expelled From Eden, a collected reader of contemporary American fiction's prolific, prostitute-positive William T. Vollmann. Expelled is excellently idiosyncratic, serving as biography, Cliffs Notes, and WV miscellany. The editors link the format to Jon Landau's never released multi-volume Springsteen box set, Wreck on the Highway, which attempted a mid-career reassessment of the critically lauded Joad-lovin' Jerseyite. When Cowley introduced the United States to Faulkner, the author had already dropped from the zonethat "matchless time" between 1928 and 1942but the book did wonders. Conversely, Vollmann seems to be gaining momentum, and by offering easier bits of text for out-of-shape critics to digest, it'll be interesting to see if a shift occurs in this book's wake.
The snappy title comes from Vollmann's favorite Steinbeck, East of Eden, as well as "The Shame of It All: Some Thoughts on Prostitution in America," in which Vollmann defines post-World War I brothels as an "American Eden" from which the girls and clients "got expelled by moral crusaders." There's also the anti-Eden of "Seven Dreams," his seven-volume "Symbolic History . . . an account of origins and metamorphoses which is often untrue based on the literal facts as we know them, but whose untruths further a deeper sense of truth." Faulkner had his own fucked-up paradise, fusing fact/myth in life/Yoknapatawpha, and considering the loss of the Old South ("that nonexistent Eden," which "has been permanently 'muddied,' " per Parini), Expelled From Eden could make a nifty catchphrase for the Count.
On top of excerpts, there are previously unpublished I-can't-cut-any-more-words letters between Vollmann and his Viking editor, tender coming-of-nerd tales, Vollmann's tongue-in-cheek review of his own high-Elizabethan Argall, excellent riffing on Melville, missives the author wrote in the '70s regarding space travel, and info on Vollmann's CoTangent Press along with photos of padlocked book objects. There's a lengthy intro, plot summaries, background texts, and an expository time line in which Larry McCaffery offers a world history according to all things Vollmann.
After page count and gritty tales of San Francisco's Tenderloin, Vollmann's best known for "kidnapping" a prostitute, firing a blank pistol at his readings, and beyond-the-front-line journalism in Afghanistan, Iraq, Kosovo, and a mosquito-infested Yukon. Bush-like in his military service, Faulkner succumbed to social-ladder desires, alcoholic stupors, and macho fantasies (inventing un-traversed flight patterns, a limp, etc.), but was most heroic in his radically masterful retooling of the sentence.
Emphasizing candor throughout his literary project, Vollmann proves a different storytelling sort than the slight Southern chap. In "Honesty" he begins with Montaigne and ends with a Turkish proverb: "Whoever tells the truth is chased out of nine villages." In an illuminating, largely non-American/ nonlinear "List of 'Contemporary' Books Most Admired by Vollmann" (though Faulkner's there!), two of his three top-spot authors, the Japanese masters Yasunari Kawabata and Yukio Mishima, killed themselvesdecisive actions very much in contrast to Faulkner's slower, winding path of alcoholism.
So while he admires "the elusively vast people in Faulkner, who are more than human because they're language itself," Vollmann's self-professed moral link is Faulkner's contemporary, John Steinbeck. Praising Steinbeck's sincerity, Vollmann mentions Faulkner's "honeysuckled tales of incest, miscegenation and doom" that possess "the lonely narcissism which characterizes us Americans [and] ultimately obscures social statement."

The Pakistani side violated the ceasefire along the Line of Control on Friday, hours before Arun Jaitley arrives in Jammu and Kahsmir for his maiden visit to the state as defence minister today.
Friday's ceasefire violation follows Thursday's IED blasts on the LoC which left one soldier dead and five others injured on Thursday.
According to the army, the Pakistani army shelled Indian forward positions and civilian areas at half a dozen locations in Bhimber Gali sector on Friday morning. Such was the intensity of the firing that some Pakistani mortar shells killed and injured cattle in adjacent villages.
"Pakistani army carried out unprovoked firing using small arms, automatics and mortars from 7.30am to 7.55am in the BG sector," defence spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Manish Mehta told dna from Jammu. "Our own posts gave a befitting reply. No damage or casualties were reported on our side."
The district development commissioner of Poonch, Sajad A Khan, said that two buffaloes died in the village and five were injured. "There is no loss of life or report of any damage to the houses," he said.
Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Omar Abdullah took to twitter to question the timing of the ceasefire violation. "Significant ceasefire violation in Rajouri & Poonch with reports of some shells having landed in civilian areas. Some livestock loss. Is it just a coincidence that the Defence Minister is visiting J&K, for his first visit, to review the security situation tomorrow?" he tweeted.
Jaitley will be accompanied by army chief General Bikram Singh during his two day visit to the state to assess the security situation on the border. In Srinagar, Jaitley will be briefed by the Northern Army Commander Lt. General DS Hooda. On Sunday, Jaitley will visit forward posts in the Uri sector on the LoC.
Friday's ceasefire violation on the LoC was the first major incidence since Narendra Modi took over as prime minister on May 26. Incidentally, PM Modi visited the army's war room at its headquarters in south block for a two-hour briefing by Gen Singh. Modi was accompanied by Jaitley and national security advisor Ajit Doval.
Gen Singh apprised the prime minister on operation readiness and also touched upon challenges and issues of the army which need to be addressed.

Spotlight: Hans Hollein
Described by Richard Meier as an architect whose "groundbreaking ideas" have "had a major impact on the thinking of designers and architects," Austrian artist, architect, designer, theoretician and Pritzker Prize laureate Hans Hollein worked in all aspects of design, from architecture to furniture, jewelry, glasses, lamps – even door handles. Known in particular for his museum designs, from the Abteiberg Museum in Mönchengladbach to the Museum of Modern Art in Frankfurt to Vienna's Haas House, Hollein's work manifests a unique, fascinating take on 1950s Modernism.
Have you Seen This Forgotten PoMo Jewelry by 1980s Architects?
It's not often that a major design project by a bevy of superstar architects is forgotten to history. But this seems to be what happened in the 1980s, when Italian designer Cleto Munari commissioned a stable of world-famous architects to design a new jewelry collection. The (unashamedly PoMo) results were documented in a now almost forgotten book by Barbara Radice called simply "Jewelry By Architects," which included interviews with each designer. Originally published by Monica Khemsurov of Sight Unseen, this article shows off just some of the contents of this fascinating work.
Until about six months ago, there was only one Munari we idolized: Bruno, one of our favorite 20th-century designers and design theorists. (If you haven't read Design As Art, we suggest you hop to it!) But then, one fateful day this past spring, we were wandering aimlessly around the internet when we stumbled upon the biggest editorial coup we've scored in years, and thus began our love affair with Cleto Munari. The Italian designer—who, as far as we can tell, is unrelated to Bruno—commissioned a dream-team of architects like Ettore Sottsass and Peter Eisenman in the early '80s to create a jewelry collection for his eponymous company, and the project had almost no coverage anywhere on the web. After immediately snapping up a copy of the incredible out-of-print book that documented it, which we're excerpting a small portion of here, we set about doing more research on Munari himself. Turns out he's a bit of a Sight Unseen patron saint, who dreamed up all kinds of cross-disciplinary projects for the precious metals–focused design brand he founded in the '70s with Carlo Scarpa. "It is most interesting to me to have a poet design a table, a painter design a credenza, and an architect design a spoon," Munari told the Huffington Post in an interview two years ago.
Austrian Pritzker Prize Laureate Hans Hollein Passes Away
Austrian artist, architect, designer, theoretician and Pritzker Prize laureate Hans Hollein has passed away twenty five days after he celebrated his eightieth birthday. Hollein, particularly known for his museum design, including Vienna's Haas House (1990) and Frankfurt's Museum of Modern Art, was once described by Richard Meier as an architect whose "groundbreaking ideas" have "had a major impact on the thinking of designers and architects."
See a selection of Hollein's work, from architecture to furniture, jewelry to glasses, to a high-rise in China, after the break…
Hans Hollein / Peter Weibel [HG. | ED]
If you are a fan of Hans Hollein then we have the book for you. Edited by Peter Weibel, this large format book gives you a vivid and detailed look at the 1985 Pritzker Prize recipient's work. Hollein, an Austrian trained architect, did everything from architecture to design and art. Hollein said, "architects have to stop thinking in terms of buildings only." The book describes Hollein as the universal artist who "has transposed the machine-based architecture and art of modernity into the era of media-based communication and information technology." The large photographs featured in this publication make for a great for a coffee table book, and yet the depth and breadth of his work can spur much more interesting conversation than the average coffee table book.

Virginia Mountaineers -3 at Colorado Buffalos
Both teams have had an off week to prepare for this game, but in their last game the Buffalos beat Eastern Washington 31-24, wile the Mountaineers were upset, losing to East Carolina 24-3. West Virginia looks to get back in the BCS picture after getting upset 2 weeks ago, while Colorado looks to get some respect and some national attention by beating a nationally ranked team and staying undefeated. The Mountaineers are led by QB Pat White (280 yds 5 TD 1 INT), who is also the leading rusher (160 yds). White is helped in the rushing attack by RB Noel Devine (141 yds). White's main targets are Jock Sanders (11 rec 82 yds 2 TD yds) and Alric Arnett (4 rec 70 yds 2 TD). The Buffalos are led by QB Cody Hawkins (475 yds) 4 TD 2 INT). The Buffalos rushing attack is led by the freshman RB duo of Darrell Scott (93 yds 1 TD) and Rodney Stewart (76 yds). Hawkins' main targets are Scotty McKnight (11 rec 157 yds 1 TD) and Patrick Williams (8 rec 82 yds).
Staff Pick: White has to rebound from a horrible performance (72 yards passing) against East Carolina, as that game was the first that WV did not have a TD since the 2001 season. The Buffalos feature a strong D up front, as in their first 2 games they have held their opponents to an average of only 59 yards per game. The Buffalos need to get more production from the running game, as they average only 3.5 yards per carry (90th in the nation). Hawkins has played well for the Buffalos (71.6% completion percentage), but the running game must help him out or the Mountaineers D will blitz often and drop LB's into coverage. This is the first ever meeting between the two schools and WV is 12-10 all time versus Big 12 opponents. Colorado is a young team that has a ton of talent and they can prove they are legit with a win at home on Thursday night. Look for the Buffalos to put up a valiant effort, but Pat White will bounce back and have a big game passing, as the Buffalos secondary is mediocre. The Mountaineers will win a close game and cover the spread, as they begin to climb back up in the rankings.
Mountaineers 31 Colorado 27
Re: Thursday Service Plays
Connecticut at New York
Pick: New York -1
The Eastern Conference Semifinals will begin in New York as the Connecticut Sun take on the New York Liberty. The Sun opened the season looking like the class of the WNBA with an 8-1 start, but the finish was a very pedestrian 13-12 mark, which included losses in three of their last four games. What is most eye-opening here is the Sun has failed to beat a team with a winning record on the road since June 20! They have averaged losing these games by 6.5 points a game. The Liberty suffered two losses to the Sun during their opening 8-1 run, but when these teams met later in the season, the Liberty won at Connecticut by six points, as a 5.5 point dog. The Liberty has not only bridged the gap between them and the Sun at the beginning of the season, but is valued here at home especially in a game they just basically have to win to get the cover.

San Francisco Giants at Arizona Diamondbacks
Prediction: San Francisco Giants
Tim Lincecum and the Giants close out their series against Randy Johnson and the Diamondbacks in Arizona tonight. Lincecum loves hurling on Thursdays, going 5-1 in his MLB career, including 3-0 away. With 8 walks and 36 strikeouts in his five career starts against Arizona, and with the Diamondbacks having scored more than 4 runs in just 1 of their last 10 games, we'll back Lincecum and the Giants here this evening.

San Francisco Giants at Arizona Diamondbacks
Prediction: Arizona Diamondbacks
The Giants have been playing a lot better but heading into last night's game they had lost 2 straight and are facing a team they always struggle against. The Giants are 20-41 in their last 61 road games vs. a left-handed starter. San Francisco is 17-36 in their last 53 games overall vs. a lefty. The Giants have lost 5 of their last 6 road games vs. a team with a winning record. Heading into game 3 of the series last night the Diamondbacks had already won the first two games. Arizona needs to win this one to keep their playoff hopes alive. The Giants are 5-13 in their last 18 trips to Arizona prior to Wednesday's game. Play on the Arizona Diamondbacks -.
Re: Thursday Service Plays
Big Al McMordie
Houston Astros vs. Florida Marlins
Play: Houston Astros
Add the Houston Astros' 24-year-old righthander Alberto Arias' name to the list of young pitchers who have made an big initial impression this season switching from reliever to starter for his team. Arias was plugged into the rotation for injured starter Wandy Rodriguez as they opted to keep spot starter Chris Sampson in the bullpen. And Arias took full advantage of his first Major League start at home against Pittsburgh on September 8, giving up no runs on only two hits with six strikeouts over five innings. Keeping guys like Sampson in the bullpen allows Houston to give a youngster like Arias an abbreviated start without having to worry about their relievers ruining it for him. Houston probably wishes the season had started after the All-Star Break as it has been firing on all cylinders in the 2nd half. It's winning situations like this that can give young starters like Arias the confidence they need as they progress forward to perhaps become a full-time rotation member. Florida's 24-year-old lefty Scott Olsen hadn't won a game in nine straight starts heading into his last appearance on Friday, but he finally got the monkey off his back in that game. But it took a start against the lowly Washington Nationals to put Olsen back on the winning track. Look for Houston to put Olsen back in the loss column tonight. Take the Astros.

The Gold Sheet
COLORADO by 7 over West Virginia
COLORADO 24 - West Virginia 17—Both teams off last week. Key question is whether WV can get its offense going after 5 Patrick White TDP in opener vs. Villanova, but then only 3 points & 251 yards at East Carolina?Colorado sees plenty of spread offenses in the Big XII, allowing 23 ppg LY vs.Oklahoma, Baylor, Kansas and Texas Tech, but 55 to Mizzou. Buffs need some ball control from frosh RB Darrell Scott to help scrappy QB Hawkins.
*COLORADO over WEST VIRGINIA by 2
Our Zone Blitz rated West Virginia's 2008 investment prospects as "Poor", so don't be looking for one of those boring, generic forecasts that says something like, "West Virginia should be just fine post-Rodriguez." It just doesn't have to be that way. Colorado to visitor: 'We've got rushing speed to match your rushing speed, we've got defensive contain speed for the edges you love to exploit, and our quarterback was raised to throw the ball first.' For Cody Hawkins, throwing it into the visitor's 3-3-5 defense is a bit of a sticky wicket, for he is sometimes a little too fearless for his own good. But West Virginia is off turf, on grass, at altitude, in trouble. COLORADO, 29-27.
Power Sweep
West Virginia at COLORADO - 1st meeting. Colorado does have a large altitude edge as they have been in it for TWO months while WV just came in this week. WV is off a bye (like CU) and is 14-3 SU on the road (11-5-1 ATS). Colorado did upset #3 Oklahoma at home LY, has 14 returning starters and is in year 3 under Hawkins (traditionally the year a new HC does best). LY they only lost to Kansas (finished 12-1, #7) by 5 but are just 3-7 as a HD and WV is 9-4-1 as an AF. Two out of WV's L/3 SU road losses came in a night game.
Winning Points
West Virginia over Colorado* by 9
Bill Stewart is making major statements about going back to more basic zone option plays, and that is bad news for a Colorado defense that sees little of those tactics in the Big 12, and will have a difficult time adjusting to the speed of Pat White. WEST VIRGINIA 31-22.

BAL Orioles @ TOR Blue Jays
Take Over
A couple of decent offensive teams meet here. Baltimore is 6th in the AL in runs scored, while Toronto has been terrific offensively in the second half of the season while getting key offensive players healthy. The joke in Baltimore is that the Orioles are in a tailspin these days, thanks to a pitching staff that can't even get health insurance anymore. They are on their way to their 11th straight losing season. You can't walk batters in a hitter-friendly stadium like Toronto, but Orioles righty Daniel Cabrera has walked 90 in 180 innings, a terrible ratio. And he's getting worse: 14 walks in his last 12 innings! Jesse Litsch is 1-3 with a 5.24 ERA against the Orioles, and an 11.57 ERA this season. Cabrera is 4-8with a 4.92 ERA against Toronto, walking 48 in 93 innings. Look for plenty of runs in this one. Play the Orioles/Blue Jays over the total.

MIN Twins @ TB Rays
Take MIN Twins
The Twins are really struggling on the road, rookie Glenn Perkins has been terrible lately and James Shields is usually money at home for the Rays. So how come I like the Twins tonight? It's the situation. TB is in a big letdown spot off the two tremendously important wins over the Red Sox, and they can actually relax a bit here as they clinched the AL East tie-breaker with the Wednesday win, in effect giving them a three game lead over Boston. The Twins desperately need to get some good things done this weekend as they're still down in the Central and time is running out. Given the scenario, I'll go for the price and call for the Twins to upset the Rays tonight.

St. Louis at CINCINNATI -130
We have no problem laying a little juice with the Reds tonight, as Cincinnati appears to be taking the end of this season very seriously, winning their last 4, and 7 of their last 9 games.
The same cannot be said for the Cardinals who have now lost their last 7 games, and are 8-12 their last 20 games played at Great American Ball Park.
Kyle Lohse's road ERA is a little bloated at 4.58, and he hasn't gone past the 6th in either of his last pair of starts.
Edinson Volquez did shut the Cards down back on August the 17th when he worked 7 scoreless against Lohse, and St. Louis and picked up the win.
For the year, Volquez is a positive 8-2 at home, and 16-4 for the year with an ERA just over 3. Cincy pitching has been dominant the last couple of nights against the Cardinals, and will be again tonight.
Play on Cincinnati.

White Sox at YANKEES -130
Tonight I will go with the Yankees to make it 3 of 4 against the White Sox.
Former Yankee Javier Vazquez has struggled the last 2 times he has faced his former team, as the righty has allowed 10 runs over his last 11 innings of work against New York for an 0-2 ledger.
Mike Mussina looks like he is going to fall short in his bid to win 20 games, as he is 17-9 for the year, but has lost his last pair of starts in ugly fashion.
I like the Moose to get back on track tonight, as Mussina is 2-0 his last 3 starts against Chicago, tossing 19 innings, while allowing 7 runs to scores.
New York is 4-2 in the season series this year, and more importantly 7-2 in the House that Ruth Built since 2006 versus the Pale Hose.
Lay a little home wood, and go with New York tonight.

Minnesota +140 at TAMPA BAY
Expect a letdown with the Rays tonight after they just took two of three from the Red Sox. Now they've got the Twins coming to town who are in a fight of their own with the White Sox for the A.L. Central division.
Minnesota is looking to regroup after losing four straight, including a 6-4 loss Wednesday in Cleveland. The Twins are 2 1/2 games out of first in the Central and they have to keep pace with the White Sox until they meet for a three-game set in Minnesota starting Sept. 23.
The Rays and Twins split a two-game series in Minnesota in April and the Twins have won 11 of their last 16 matchups in Tampa Bay. Glen Perkins (12-4, 4.40 ERA) goes for the Twins in this one, making his first start against the Rays.
James Shields (13-8, 3.50) is on the hill for the Rays and he's just 1-1 with a 5.94 ERA in three career outings against Minnesota. He gave up five runs in five innings of a 6-5 loss on April 16 in Minnesota.
Letdown factor plays a big part tonight as the Twins steal one in Tampa. Play Minnesota.

(21) West Virginia (1-1, 0-1 ATS) at Colorado (2-0, 1-0 ATS)
West Virginia, which took last weekend off after a stunning upset loss at East Carolina, travels to Folsom Field in Boulder, Colo., for a nationally televised non-conference matchup against the Buffaloes.
West Virginia, then ranked No. 8 and considered a possible national title contender, got steamrolled 24-3 at East Carolina as a 7½-point road chalk on Sept. 6. Star QB Patrick White rushed for 97 yards to pace a ground attack that totaled 179 yards, but he threw for just 72 yards and led just one scoring drive – on a second-quarter field goal. The Mountaineers lost the turnover battle 2-0, were outgained 386-251 and were on the short end of a 36-24 difference in time of possession.
Colorado, which also had last weekend off, barely held off Division I-AA Eastern Washington 31-24 in a non-lined home game on Sept. 6. The Buffs trailed 21-7 at halftime and needed 17 fourth-quarter points to avoid the upset, capped by an interception return for a TD in the final two minutes. QB Cody Hawkins (28 of 38, 261 yards, 3 TDs, 1 INT) was steady, though his lone pick was returned for a TD in the second quarter. Colorado allowed just 47 rushing yards but yielded 303 through the air.
This is the first-ever meeting between these schools.
The loss at East Carolina aside, the Mountaineers have still won 14 of their last 17 games on the highway (11-5-1 ATS) and are on positive pointspread streaks of 9-4-1 as a road favorite, 5-1 after a loss of more than 20 points and 5-1 following a non-cover. The Buffaloes, conversely, are on ATS slides of 3-7 as a home pup and 2-7 after a SU win.
The over for West Virginia is on runs of 4-0 after a SU loss, 5-1 after a bye week and 5-1 in Thursday contests. Also, the total has also gone high in four of Colorado's last five lined games and is on a 4-0 run following a SU win, though the under is 10-2 in the Buffs' last 12 non-conference tilts and 4-0 in its last four in September.
Milwaukee (84-68) at Chicago Cubs (91-59)
The Brewers, desperately trying to win the N.L. wild-card after having fired manager Ned Yost on Monday, send Dave Bush (9-10, 4.24 ERA) to the hill at Wrigley Field against the first-place Cubs and red-hot Rich Harden (10-2, 2.04 ERA) to close out a three-game set.
Milwaukee snapped a five-game losing skid with Wednesday's 6-2 win at Wrigley Field, prevailing despite losing No. 2 pitcher Ben Sheets to an injury after two innings. The Brewers, who trail the Mets by one-half game in the wild-card race, still remain in a major freefall, losing 12 of their last 16 contests overall, and they're also 1-8 in their last nine against winning teams and 4-12 in Bush's last 16 road starts.
Despite having their five-game winning streak halted last night, the Cubs remain eight games up on the Brewers in the N.L. Central race. Chicago is 51-22 in its last 73 home games and has won five of six against Milwaukee.
The Brewers have lost three straight games started by Bush, after winning five in a row behind the right-hander. On Sunday at Philadelphia, Bush allowed three runs on five hits in six innings of a 7-3 loss.
Bush is 3-6 with a 5.25 ERA in 13 appearances (12 starts) on the road this year, and he's 1-7 with a 5.16 ERA in 10 career starts against Chicago, including 0-2 with an 8.53 ERA in two outings against the Cubs this year.
Harden has been money for weeks, winning five straight decisions while the Cubs are 7-0 in his last seven starts, with the right-hander yielding two earned runs or less in six of those outings. On Thursday at St. Louis, he allowed two runs on five hits in six innings of a 3-2 victory.
Harden, acquired in a trade with Oakland earlier this year, is 5-0 with a 1.79 ERA in 14 combined home starts this year (2-0, 1.80 ERA in six outings at Wrigley Field). Also, in his lone career start against Milwaukee back in July, he allowed just a run on six hits with nine strikeouts in seven innings in an 11-4 road win.
The over is 21-8-4 run in the last 33 clashes between these rivals In addition, the over is on runs of 5-0-4 for Milwaukee overall and 6-2-3 for the Brewers on the road. On the flip side, for Chicago, the under is on streaks of 4-1-1 overall and 5-2-1 at Wrigley.
Chicago White Sox (84-67) at N.Y. Yankees (81-71)
The White Sox, looking to pad their lead in the A.L. Central, hand the ball to Javier Vazquez (12-13, 4.13 ERA) to wrap up a four-game road series against the Yankees, who will counter with fellow right-hander Mike Mussina (17-9, 3.63).
The teams have alternated wins and losses in the first three games of this series, with New York rallying late for a 5-1 victory on Wednesday. The Yankees sport several positive streaks, including 5-1 against the A.L. Central, 18-8 at home versus winning teams, 8-1 with Mussina facing a club above .500 and 7-1 with Mussina going against A.L. Central squads.
Chicago has been treading water lately with a 4-6 record in its last 10 games. The White Sox also carry a bevy of negative streaks, including 1-8 against right-handers on the road, 6-16 on the highway against winning teams and 3-8 against the A.L. East. In addition, with Vazquez throwing, Chicago is 0-6 in its last six against winning teams and 0-7 in the last seven against the A.L. East.
The Yankees are on a 9-3 tear in the last 12 meetings with the White Sox, 7-2 in the last nine clashes in the Bronx and of 5-0 in Mussina's last five home starts versus the Pale Hose.
Chicago has won two of Vazquez's last three starts, including Sunday's 4-2 home victory over Detroit. In that outing, the 32-year-old threw 7 2/3 innings of three-hit shutout ball, and he's given up a combined four earned runs over 19 2/3 innings in his last three starts (1.83 ERA).
New York had won seven straight behind Mussina before losing his last two outings. On Saturday against Tampa, he allowed five runs on eight hits in five innings of a 7-1 home defeat, his shortest outing since July 28.
Vazquez is 5-7 with a 4.47 ERA in 15 road starts this year, and he's 1-4 with an inflated 6.14 ERA in five career starts against New York. Mussina is 10-7 with a 3.70 ERA in 19 starts at the Stadium in 2008, but he's a mediocre 17-16 with a 4.57 ERA in 38 career starts against the Sox.
The under for Chicago is on runs of 7-1-1 on the highway and 21-6-2 against the A.L. East, and each of Vazquez's last five starts have stayed low and the under is also 6-2-1 in Vazquez's last nine road efforts. Meanwhile, for New York, the under has cashed in nine of Mussina's last 12 home starts and is 8-3 in Moose's last 11 outings against winning teams.

Re: Thursday Service Plays
The Gold Medal Club
Minnesota @ Tampa Bay
More juice here than we are used to, but it is warranted. After a successful and emotional series win over there rival leaders the Boston Red Sox, the Rays can use this momentum to finish strong.We note Tampa Bay is 20-1 as home chalk in this price range, and with Shields on the mound look for that to go to 21-1. Shields has certainly been formidable going 9-2 at home this year and is 2-0 in his last 3 starts with an era of 1.57! On the flip side Perkins looks like he has hit the wall, although he is 5-1 on the road this year, his last 3 starts have been disastrous.He is 0-1 with an era of 8.56 and a whip over 2.
Re: Thursday Service Plays
Ben Burns
Los Angeles Dodgers @ Pittsburgh Pirates
PICK: Under
Maholm has been tough at home all season. In fact, he's gone 7-2 with a 3.32 ERA and 1.174 WHIP in 15 starts here. The 'under' was 8-6-1 in those games. He'll face a Dodger lineup which has really struggled to score runs during the daytime. Indeed, the Dodgers have seen the 'under' go 26-18 when playing during the afternoon and they've averaged a mere 3.7 runs in those games, while hitting just .251. As for the Pirates, they haven't hit particularly well vs. southpaws (.248 average, 4.4 rpg) and they'll be at the disadvantage of facing Kershaw for the first time. Last time out, Kershaw allowed just four hits and one run through six innings at Coors Field. That game finished well below the total with a final score of 5-1. Given that Kershaw has a much better ERA during the day than he does at night, I won't be surprised if this afternoon's game proves to be relatively low-scoring once again. Consider the UNDER (1*)

Vegas Experts
Minnesota Twins at Tampa Bay Rays
If the Tampa Bay Rays are listed as $1.50 favorites or higher, you might as well not even show up if you're the other team. That's because the AL East leaders are a sensational 32-2 in that price range this season, including 25-1 at $2.00 or less. Incredibly, tonight's starter James Shields owns a 12-0 team start record in the original price range we talked about. Shields also has posted a 1.57 ERA his L3 starts. Who are we to argue with these numbers?

Nick Parsons
Philadelphia Phillies at Atlanta Braves
Prediction: Philadelphia Phillies
Although the Phillies are way too pricey to release as a pay play you're reading about them here because I do see value with the Phils on Thursday. At this price, you may want to simply consider using them in a parlay but, the fact is, the value with Philadelphia should not be passed up on here. Philly is once again running hot in making their late season playoff push just like they did last year! Now, having won six straight, and having their staff ace on the mound tonight, they should not be denied. Cole Hamels is only allowing opponents to hit .224 against him this season. He also is 6-3 on the road this season. Hamels is 5-2 in his career against Altanta and the southpaw has held the Braves to a .229 batting average in his career. Keep in mind that this even includes his most recent outing against Atlanta. That came in July and Hamels got roughed up. In other words, it's revenge time for one of the best southpaws in the game! Originally it looked like the Braves were going to go with Jo Jo Reyes in this match-up tonight but it now looks like Mike Hampton will get the call. Either way, neither one of those southpaws is in the same class as Hamels. When you couple that factor with the fact that the Phillies are rolling and confident while the Braves are playing out the string here and you can see why the Phils are the play on Thursday night!
Re: Thursday Service Plays
Drew Gordon
LA Angels at OAKLAND +105
First thing that jumps out at you in this contest is the number... Doesn't it seem tantalizingly low for Joe Saunders, who's been a beast on the road (9-3, 2.74 ERA away)? When you consider a couple things, it becomes clear why the number is where its at, and why the only play here is on the surging A's...
Sharp bettors know there's something fishy about the bargain price on Joe Saunders. It starts with each team's recent play, that is to say, the sudden struggles of this Angels team, versus the sudden surge by the Athletics. Angels have lost two in a row, but already they're playing like a team with ZERO interest in the remainder of the regular season. Also, with Guerrero out and Rivera likely a scratch, the Angels offense got a lot weaker overnight.
Athletics on the other hand, have seemingly found their groove, even though it means absolutely nothing except pride at this point. They've won 4 straight, averaging a hearty 6.25 runs per game over that span, and now get a shot at a pitcher they dominated the last time they saw him. That's right, for all of Joe Saunders success this season, the last time he saw the A's he got rocked for 6 runs in just 1 1/3 innings back on August 27th!
The last piece of the puzzle is the A's rookie Josh Outman, who was rock-solid against a top-tier Rangers offense in his first start of the season, allowing just 1 run over 5 innings Saturday. That was the game that started the A's winning streak, and I expect Outman to handle a short-handed/disinterested Angels offense in this one as well.
Bottom line, you're right to question the number on this contest, because it does stand out as fishy. Although its tough to side with the A's after a woeful season, the Angels are not themselves, as they prepare for their postseason run. In the end, Outman gets the job done, while the hot-hitting Athletics beat up on Saunders once again tonight!
Take Oakland behind Outman over the LA Angels and Saunders in this MLB match up.

Louise Mensch has challenged a journalist who asked her about drug-taking past to give his real name. Photograph: Rex Features
Louise Mensch can't be having much of a holiday in Florida.
The Tory MP, who was forced to apologise to Piers Morgan after linking him to phone hacking, has been tweeting throughout the day after the journalist who challenged her over her drug-taking past surfaced this afternoon.
Perhaps I should say that David Jones has (sort of) surfaced. Jones, who challenged Mensch to say whether she had taken drugs with the violinist Nigel Kennedy while she worked at EMI in her twenties, appears to have sent an identical email to journalists. We were furnished with his email address (email@example.com) by Mensch's PR adviser Tom Steiner. I blogged about this on Friday evening.

Louise Mensch tweeted from Florida that she has hired a City PR firm to help her handle questions about her past. Photograph: Nadav Kander
Tom Steiner, a financial PR consultant at Capital MSL, had a busy afternoon.
Steiner, who tweets as @Tom__Ace, has been hired by the Conservative MP and author Louise Mensch to help her as she deals with questions from a mystery journalist about her colourful past.
On 22 July Mensch received an email, signed by David Jones Investigative Journalists, asking her to answer questions about her time working at EMI when she was in her 20s. Paul Owen reproduced the email from David Jones who asked Mensch, 40, whether she had taken drugs with the violinist Nigel Kennedy at Ronnie Scott's in Birmingham.

Ed Miliband showed over the weekend how much the tectonic plates of British politics have shifted in recent weeks as the House of Murdoch shakes.
In a newspaper interview on Saturday, Miliband set out how he hopes to capitalise on Britain's new political settlement in which party leaders can be more honest as they pay less attention to the Murdoch press.
Readers will have been struck by these comments which would be brave even for a Labour leader who hails from the Fabian, rather than the Tony Blair, tradition:

Mel Gibson has been caught on tape making ANOTHER bigoted remark, this time against Latinos, RadarOnline.com is reporting exclusively.
The Oscar-winning director/actor is heard referring to one of his staffers as a "wetback" during a recorded argument with Oksana Grigorieva, the mother of his love child.

RadarOnline.com has heard the tape in which Mel tells Oksana: "I will report her to the f**king people that take f**king money from the wetbacks."
He is referring to turning a worker into immigration authorities, RadarOnline.com has been told.
'Wetbacks' is a disparaging slang term for those of Latino heritage, especially Mexican illegal immigrants in the United States.
WORLD EXCLUSIVE: Mel Gibson's Racist Rant Caught On Tape – Tells Oksana She Would Get 'Raped By N***ers'
The slur stems from the fact that illegal Mexicans would sometimes swim to cross into other countries.
This latest bile to flow from Mel's mouth comes after the Braveheart star's disgusting tirade directed towards his ex-lover – as first and exclusively reported by RadarOnline.com.
"You look like a f**king pig in heat," Mel spewed in the obscenity-laced recording.
"If you get raped by a pack of n****rs, it will be your fault."
He also threatened Oksana: ""I am going to come and burn the f**king house down… but you will blow me first."

The NAACP, Jesse Jackson and others Civil Rights leaders blasted Gibson for use of the N-word and his sickening rant.
Four years ago, Mad Mel apologized profusely and reportedly entered rehab after verbally attacking the Jewish community after being picked up by police.
The emergence of the new tape comes as he is at war with Oksana after their breakup. They have an eight-month-old daughter Lucia.

RadarOnline.com broke the story Wednesday that the Lethal Weapon star admitted he beat his ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva, while she was holding their baby daughter Lucia.
In the recording, a teary Oksana is heard asking Mel, "What kind of a man is that who would hit a woman when she is holding a child in her hands, hitting her twice in the face?
"What kind of a man is that?" the Russian musician repeats.

The Braveheart star responds: "You know what — you f**king deserved it."
Oksana, 40, has taken out a restraining order against Gibson, claiming that he physically abused her throughout their stormy relationship.
She claims Mel, 54, knocked out her two front teeth, leaving her bloodied and bruised, during a physical confrontation on January 6 at the actor's Malibu mansion.
He went to rehab after the 2006 incident.
