The Colonie football team made the Section II, Class AA playoffs with help from its neighbors from Shaker.
The Blue Bison's 30-20 victory over Columbia last Friday assured the Garnet Raiders that they would be in Sectionals no matter what happened to them against Bethlehem which turned out to be a 31-14 loss last Saturday.
We appreciate what they did for us," said Colonie coach Mike Ambrosio.
What Shaker did for Colonie (2-3 division, 3-4 overall) was give Ambrosio an excuse to rest several of his starters, since he knew that the Garnet Raiders would be hitting the road for their first-round playoff game.
"We knew we had made the playoffs, so we were in a situation where we could rest some people," said Ambrosio.
Bethlehem (2-3, 3-4) took ad-vantage of the situation by out-scoring Colonie 14-0 in the second half to break open a close game. Mike Strohecker's 3-yard scoring run in the third quarter gave the Eagles a 24-14 lead, and Devin Stampley added a 1-yard scoring plunge in the fourth quarter.
The win moved Bethlehem into the No. 3 seed from the Liberty Division and a first-round match-up with Empire Division No. 2 seed Ballston Spa Friday. Colonie dropped to the No. 4 seed with the loss and put the Garnet Raiders into a quarterfinal game against Empire Division champion Saratoga Springs Friday.
"No matter where we went, we knew it was going to be a tough game. Both teams [Ballston Spa and Saratoga] are very good, physical teams," said Ambrosio.
Shaker (1-4, 2-5) might have had a chance to make the playoff field had Colonie beaten Bethlehem Saturday. A Bethlehem loss would have created a three-way tie for fourth place, which would have led to the use of quarter points to determine which team made Sectionals.

After a bruising Hilltopper drive to open the second half, the situation looked dire once more. WKU had just driven 75 yards for a touchdown in seven minutes to take a 24-10 lead and stem the momentum gained by the Cats when they scored 10 points in the final 5:01 of the first half.
One last time, UK seemed in nearly inescapable trouble with the clock ticking inside four minutes left in the fourth quarter. WKU's grinding ground game had just converted a third-and-one with UK down a touchdown and with just two timeouts in hand.
Somehow, the Cats managed to dig themselves out of each of those holes. Some way, UK tied the game with 24 seconds left in regulation and scored a go-ahead touchdown in overtime.
But in the end, it was the Wildcats left heartbroken when WKU answered with a touchdown of its own, went for the two-point conversion and won when Antonio Andrews threw back from behind the line of scrimmage to quarterback Kawuan Jakes, who ran into the end zone after a shoestring catch.
"It was well-designed play," defensive coordinator Rick Minter said. "It might work once or twice a year, but it worked tonight. Give them credit."
After watching your players refuse to give up for 60 minutes and more only to have their effort rewarded with a 32-31 loss sure to be prominently feature on the SportsCenter Top 10, what do you tell your football team?
"Tonight, you don't say a whole lot," offensive coordinator Randy Sanders said. "You tell them you're proud of the effort and proud of the way they competed and proud of the way they battled. Obviously we made too many mistakes early, put ourselves in a hole. I was proud of the way they competed. They obviously never give up on anything, keep competing, keep fighting and put ourselves in position to have a chance."
Perhaps best exemplifying his team's night, which sent UK to 1-2 on the season, was Maxwell Smith. The sophomore signal caller was turnover-free through his first eight quarters of the season, but tossed three interceptions in his first 16 attempts and another in the midst of UK's comeback bid in the fourth quarter. Nevertheless, Smith just kept on throwing, and then throwing some more. He finished with 37 completions in 60 attempts, 332 yards and two touchdowns, including the game-tying score to freshman DeMarcus Sweat.
"I was really proud of him," Sanders said. "He kind of dinged his shoulder up a little bit, kind of hurt his leg a little bit. It obviously affected him a little bit with some of his accuracy there in the fourth quarter, missed a couple throws that we usually hit. But the guy kept competing, kept standing in there, kept making plays."
Smith certainly made his share of plays in his second 300-yard performance in as many games, but he was more concerned with the miscues.
"I thought I had an alright game besides the four picks, but that's like saying I pitched well but I gave up four grand slams," Smith said.
Smith was at the helm for UK's comeback bid, but it was running back Jonathan George he dubbed player of the game. With Raymond Sanders suspended due to a violation of team rules and starter CoShik Williams going down with a hip strain early, the Cats turned almost exclusively to George in the backfield. He did everything that was asked of him and more.
"Jon played great tonight," Smith said. "He was doing a lot of things. He did well in protection, making guys miss, doing what you got to do as a back and not letting the first guy bring you down."
George had 105 total yards from scrimmage (51 rushing, 54 passing) and three touchdowns because he was prepared to step up when the moment called for it.
"I always tell myself just to be ready to play whenever because you never know what can happen," George said. "Last week with CoShik out and Raymond out this weekend, it just shows why you need to be ready to play."
Thankfully for UK, he was ready.
"He was the only one we had and I thought he cowboyed up for us and really played well," Randy Sanders said. "Fortunately he did. I don't know what we would have done if he had not been able to do it."
Whether it's George, Williams or Raymond Sanders in the backfield, the question for a Kentucky team facing seven Southeastern Conference games in a row without a bye week becomes whether it can rebound from a disappointing loss. Head coach Joker Phillips looks no further than UK's performance against WKU for the answer.
"They had an opportunity to hang their heads today," Phillips said. "They had an opportunity down in the first half and even late in the second half. They had an opportunity. This team is a team that I know I've heard the word soft a couple times, and this team is not soft by any means."
Even so, everyone involved with this team also realizes the distractions they are about to face in the wake of the loss. Fans will wonder whether the SEC schedule will be too difficult and media will ask plenty of tough questions.
"We know it's going to be there, they know it's going to be there," Sanders said. "You always try to teach them that, when things are going good, you better listen to your coaches and listen to your teammates. When things are going bad, you better listen to your coaches and to your teammates. We still got nine games to play. I've been here for five bowl games and I want to be here for six. That's still our goal."
Players and coaches will do their best to block out everything outside of the team, but they still have a message for the UK faithful.
"Don't lose hope on us," George said. "We're fighting hard. We're going to come out every week. We're working hard."

Tallahassee, Fla. (November 10, 2006) – The Saint Leo University women's basketball team fell 86-61 to the Florida A&M Rattlers in an exhibition game on Friday night.
Saint Leo junior forward Marquita Fenn (Ft. Pierce, Fla.) scored 13 points to lead the Lions, while Amanda Holloway (Jr., West Palm Beach, Fla.) added 10 points. However, five FAMU players scored in double figures to lead the home team to the victory.
The Rattlers jumped on top early, scoring the first five points of the game and opening on a 27-8 run in the first eight minutes. The lead was stretched to as many as 24 points late in the half before the Lions scored the final two buckets to trail 52-32 at the break.
Saint Leo carried the momentum into the second half, as the Lions scored the first four points to cut the deficit to 16 points. SLU eventually trimmed the lead to 14 points at 54-40 with 13:47 remaining in the contest. However a 15-2 run would end any hopes of a Saint Leo comeback, as Florida A&M built its lead to a game-high 27 points at 69-42 with 8:28 left in the game.
Both teams shot the ball well on the night, as the Rattlers shot 49.3% (35-of-71), while the Lions went 26-of-53 (49.1%). FAMU held the advantage on the glass, as it outrebounded SLU 40-27, including a 19-7 margin in offensive boards.
Saint Leo will open its regular season a week from tonight on Friday, November 17 when the Lions host the 2006 Sleep Inn Classic. The hosts will face Northwood University on Friday at 7:30 p.m. and then face Flagler College on Saturday at the same time.
Both days will feature doubleheaders with Clayton State facing Flagler on Friday and Northwood on Saturday with 5:30 p.m. opening tips scheduled for both contests.

One item of clothing that you wear should always be comfortable, your panties. Let think about this you wear them all day and all night, why would you ever wear something that wasn't comfortable. Now ladies I'm not saying that all you want is comfort, otherwise we'd all be running around in granny panties, but what I am saying is there is a way to combine the two. You can combine style with comfort in satin bikini panties.
Why satin?
- Satin is luxuriously soft, it's also light and breathable, so you'll always feel comfortable.
- Satin is flirtatious, sensuous and provocative so you'll feel good about yourself wearing them and anyone seeing them.
- Satin is one of those fabrics that lies well under clothing, so if your panties are satin no more panty lines for you.
- Many satin panties are made with stretch satin, so they hug your body comfortably.
- Satin looks and feels expensive, but you won't break the bank buying it.
It's a Panty Raid!
B.tempt'd by Wacoal Celbration Bikini-$18.00. These will easily become your favorite pair of panties. You'll love the stretch satin front, embroidered tulle side panels, and ruffle elastic waistband, these design elements all come together to create one seductive pair of panties.
Calvin Klein Perfectly Fit Satin Sculpt Bikini Panties-$24.00. You'll love these sculpted bikini panties by Calvin Klein because of the stretch satin fabric, modern bikini fit, two-tone color options, and the mid-rise cut. These would be perfect under a dress or a skirt.
Cosabella Satin and Lace bikini briefs-$40.00. You'll adore these satin and lace bikini briefs because they incorporate the stretch satin that hugs your body with the alluring and girly appeal of lace. You'll also love that they're bikini bottoms but with a brief cut, these would work great under low rise jeans.

Game Over: France manager and former All-Star closer Eric Gagne weighs in on the Dodgers, Derek Jeter, Mike Piazza and European Baseball
#GameOver: pic.twitter.com/3xSRTfgIcE
— Los Angeles Dodgers (@Dodgers) March 5, 2014
On the Dodgers chances in the playoffs: "They can win it all with their starting pitchers they got. I mean they have got a lot of guys, especially with Kershaw. He goes out there, it's pretty much lights out every time. You know in the playoffs you need two starters…they have six! They are going to be good. Their bullpen was a little shaky for a while, but they pitched a lot of innings. I think they've made some good moves. I think the Dodgers are the favorite team for me. Of course, they are my favorite. I played so many years in the Dodgers minor leagues, and I was only in Boston for four months. I was good in LA and never got a ring. But I was terrible in Boston, and I got a ring. So I can't complain. I was lucky."
On Derek Jeter's retirement: Number 2!!! That's pretty simple. He's done everything in the game you can think of. A lot of people were wondering five years ago if he was done. Just to have him around in the clubhouse and having his attitude is amazing. He's done so much for the game. Everybody knows it. If you go to France, people know Jeter. There's over 10,000 people playing so it's really, really good. He's the Jordan and the Gretzsky of the sport. It's cool to see a guy like him. It's not like he just hits home runs. He's just a winner, and he's won everywhere he went. It's good to see him retire on top. It's awesome to see him go out with the Yankees."

On growing the game in Europe along with Team Italy coach Mike Piazza: "It's in our blood. We certainly aren't doing it for the money…that's for sure. It's just fun. It's fun to watch guys get better, listen and learn. For us that's what I guarantee Mike loves about it. The kids learn…you can tell and see improvement every day, every single at-bat. It's very rewarding and for us baseball is our life. For me it is, and I'm sure it is for him too. He's a catcher. They are aware. They love to control the game and stuff like this. And I love baseball."
Alex Liddi's road less traveled to join Team Italia at the 2014 European Baseball Championship
Shortly after his pinch-hit single for the Dodgers AA-affiliate Chattanooga Lookouts in the fifth inning of the 2014 Southern League Championship game against Miami Marlins top pitching prospect Justin Nicolino of the Jacksonville Suns, Alex Liddi would embark on a marathon travel expedition from Florida not suited for the weak at heart to strengthen Team Italia's chances of capturing its third consecutive title in the 2014 European Baseball Championship. After defeating Belgium, Sweden, France, Germany, Great Britain, Spain, and Czech Republic, Team Italia battles the Netherlands in the final today.
Team Italia manager Marco Mazzieri said, "Let me tell you…Alex could not to wait to be here with us. He played his last game in Double-A ball on Friday night, September 12th then rode the bus for eight hours back to Chattanooga before driving to Atlanta on Saturday morning so that he could catch an eight hour flight to Munich. From there he had another two hour ride to Regensburg. When he arrived on Sunday morning, he went to the gym to work out with our strength and conditioning coach Gianni Natale for two hours. Then he ate lunch, and we told him to go to bed and rest but he couldn't. He had so much adrenaline pumping that he couldn't sleep after two nights of not sleeping. Then he came in to play and hit a big home run and double. He was just tremendous. I mean Alex is Alex… For us, Italian baseball around the world…it's Alex along with Alessandro Maestri. Whenever we can, we just love to have them with us."
Italia is the team to beat in Euro Championship
Italian national team manager Marco Mazzieri, named 2014 Coach of the Year by the Italian Coaches Convention in Treviso, knows it will be an uphill battle for Team Italia in the European Baseball Championship. He said, "Defending our title will not be an easy thing to do. We're going to have to contend with not only the likes of Holland, but Spain and Germany are also expected to make a splash in this year's tourney. Having won the last two EU Championships, we're the team to beat. We have a target on our backs, and we've got our work cut out for us this year if we want to bring home a third consecutive title."
2014 Euro Baseball Championship co-host Germany, ranked 19th by IBAF, will benefit greatly should German fans rally round the home team and Minnesota Twins' highly-prized prospect Max Kepler–recipient of an $800,000 signing bonus in 2009–represent his country. Kepler said, "Baseball is growing in every German city I go to. They've opened two boarding schools in Germany, so there are opportunities for kids to step up the baseball game if they want to. I hope baseball is on the same level as soccer one day in Germany."
17-year-old Kansas City Royals' prospect Marten Gasparini, who received a $1.3 signing bonus in 2013, has plenty of experience playing for Italia internationally in the Under-15 World Cup in Mexico and in the Under-18 World Cup in South Korea. Having recently been hit in the face by a ball while playing shortstop for the Rookie League Burlington Royals, let's pray the young Italian who has been heralded by many scouts as the best European 5-tool player ever is able to participate in the EU Baseball Championship.
20-year-old catching prospect Alberto Mineo, who was signed by former Chicago Cubs scout and current Italian Baseball Academy director Bill Holmberg for $500,000 in 2009, was under the guidance and direction of mentor Mike Piazza during Team Italia's 2014 Spring Training at Dodgertown in Vero Beach, Florida. Catcher Mineo and 19-year-old Cincinnati Reds pitching prospect Davide Anselmi worked together there in preparation of the European Baseball Championship.

Team Italia hitting coach Mike Piazza is committed to the growth of Italian baseball. The future MLB Hall of Famer said, "I truly believe in the marketability of baseball in Europe, in Italy specifically. I'm here completely focused on this ballclub to get the most out of our players here and hopefully help them along in their individual careers. But also we're just trying to bring attention as well to baseball in Italy. And we think that‑‑at least in my personal opinion–that we can produce players and there's a future there."

Italia hopes to three-peat in Euro Championship
Having won its second straight European Championship in 2012 after defeating the Netherlands, Team Italia manager Marco Mazzieri expects nothing less than a third consecutive EU title since the Italian National Baseball Team has captured 10 European titles and placed second fifteen times in 32 overall appearances. The Netherlands–winner of 20 EU Championship titles with nine runner-up finishes–and 12-time Bronze Spain stand in their way.
Before Italia has the opportunity to face the Netherlands and Spain in the semi-final and final games held in Brno, Czech Republic, they must first qualify by defeating Belgium, Sweden, France, Germany and Great Britain in Regensburg, Germany. The Netherlands and Spain can both advance to the final rounds with wins over the Czech Republic, Greece, Croatia and Russia in Ostrava, Czech Republic.
Although Team Italia has been dominant of late in European baseball, the Netherlands won four straight EU Championship titles from 1999 to 2007. "This has been a long-time rivalry," Team Italia skipper Marco Mazzieri said of the showdowns with the Dutch. "I have tremendous respect for their program. With that said, I like to beat them just as much as they like to beat us. Luckily, we've been able to beat them the past couple of years in the European Championships." However, the Dutch have fared better than the Italians in the international competition spotlight. The Netherlands reached the second round of the 2009 World Baseball Classic, won the 2011 World Cup in Panama and went as far as the semi-finals in the 2013 World Baseball Classic. Mazzieri admits the Dutch have an advantage when it comes down to recruiting top international talent from the Netherlands Antilles, which are part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. "It's easier for them to get players from the Caribbean," said Mazzieri.
Considering twenty-eight percent of all players making the 25-man MLB opening day rosters last year were born outside the United States, it should come as no surprise that 241 players from 12 different countries were represented on the diamond. Former New York Yankee Hensley "Bam Bam" Meulens, who serves as the Netherlands manager when not coaching for the San Francisco Giants, is from Curaçao. He spoke about Major League Baseball's effort to grow the game globally. Hensley said, "International competitions give many countries the chance to show people that we can compete with the best team in baseball, Team USA." With the Netherlands pitching staff led by MLB Hall of Fame pitcher Bert Blyleven and the best position players from Curacao and Aruba being mentored by former Yankees infielder Robert Eenhoorn–who heads the Royal Dutch Baseball and Softball Association, the Netherlands is now home to six baseball academies and a bonafide professional stadium in Hoofddorp which will host an upcoming MLB Season Opening Series soon.In the 2013 World Baseball Classic, the only player on Spain's 28-man roster born in the country was pitcher Eric Gonzalez, who grew up in the Canary Islands and whose parents are Venezuelan. Eleven of his teammates were born in Venezuela and six in Cuba. The makeup of Team Spain reflects the changing demographics of the country, where nearly half of the five million legal immigrants are from Latin America. Some members of Team Spain received passports because of their family roots in Spain, while others qualified to play through marriage or long-term residency. Mauro Mazzotti's team is dangerous because the manager recruits baseball's secret weapons from former Spanish colonies in the Caribbean and Latin America. Manager Marco Mazzieri hopes to replicate the winning synergy demonstrated by the international Team Italia lineup of MLB-affiliated players in the WBC with a roster of primarily homegrown talent in the European Championship. He said, "I'm really focused on developing our guys and possibly to add good players as we did in the 2013 WBC. We would like to get players from all over the U.S. a little bit more, but we just have to make do with what we have." Expect the defending Euro Champions Italians to play with intentions of a three-peat.

San Marino & Rimini battle for 2014 European Cup
Three-time defending Italian Baseball League champion T&A San Marino is loaded with seasoned MLB players and prospects selected by Orioles' scout and San Marino GM Mauro Mazzotti, who was named 2012 Coach of the Year by the European Baseball Coaches Association and was instrumental in leading underdog Team Spain to its first-ever appearance at the World Baseball Classic. T&A San Marino features an international all-star cast including starting pitcher Júnior Guerra–a former catcher in the Braves and Mets organizations–and relief pitcher/closer Jesus Delgado–who made his MLB debut for the 2008 Marlins–both of whom are veteran Venezuelan hurlers who bolster the dominant San Marino pitching staff.
Adding pitching depth to San Marino's roster is 35-year-old Italian American Chris Cooper, who was selected by the Cleveland Indians in the 35th round of the 2001 MLB amateur draft. Cooper, who hails from Pittsburgh, explained that his original family name was Cocchiararo. "It's alphabet soup," Cooper said, smiling as he elaborated on the scenario. "They changed my last name when my great-grandfather came over in 1911. They misspelled his name about three times, and the story was, supposedly, he pointed at somebody's nametag when he was getting his papers here in the U.S. They just said, 'Okay, we have Cooper.'" Cooper is joined by fellow Italian national team member Lorenzo Avagnina as well as Canadian-born Paul Macaluso. Both San Marino outfielders Avagnina and Macaluso are the unsung heroes of the squad as they emulate general manager Mazzotti's true grit style of play and "Never Say Die" approach to the Italian Baseball League.
Standing in the path of T&A San Marino's path to the European Cup is a very dangerous Rimini Pirates baseball team. Their pitching arsenal is led by MLB veteran/Oregon native Mike Ekstrom and Cuban-born southpaw Enorbel Márquez-Ramírez along with former Mariners' minor leaguer Jose Escalona serving as Rimini's closer. Should the Rimini Pirates defeat T&A San Marino in the upcoming Euro Cup, they will be the European representative in the 2014 Asia Series–an international competition featuring the champions of the Australian Baseball League, Korea Baseball Organization, Nippon Pro Baseball in Japan, Chinese Professional Baseball League and the European Cup. Having already earned himself a ticket to the Asia Series as the pitching ace for the 2014 Australian Baseball League (ABL) Champion Perth Heat (5-1, 0.72 ERA, 50.1 IP, 10 BB and 57 K), Ekstrom could potentially have a difficult decision to make on whether to play for the Aussie or Euro Cup Champs. Team Italia pitcher Nick Pugliese was faced with similar circumstances when he played for last year's European Cup Champion Unipol Bologna and the 2013 ABL Champion Canberra Cavalry. Because Pugliese was committed to the Italian team, it opened up a roster spot on the Cavalry pitching staff for Ekstrom. Despite being a member of the Perth Heat, Ekstrom was granted temporary pitching privileges for rival Canberra Cavalry so that Australia could put their league's best players out on the field in the international spotlight. The strategy paid off big as Ekstrom led the longshot Cavalry to the 2013 Asia Series Championship, and the ABL was subsequently awarded the winner's $500,000 prize money. Should Rimini win the Euro Cup, let's hope that Ekstrom chooses to share some amore by bringing home the loot to benefit Italian baseball.
Parma, Pisa, prosciutto, and baseball… I just posted a gallery about my last month in Italy. http://t.co/HO8SuM3RhR pic.twitter.com/3pcA564X2L
— Baseball RTW (@RTWBaseball) April 30, 2014
Based on what he has been written in his blog "Baseball Round The World", Ekstrom has nothing but love for Italia. How could he not when Italian American teammate Jack Santora, a 19th round Arizona Diamondbacks draft pick in 1999, has shown him the ropes after having spent the last eight years playing the infields of the Italian Baseball League. The Monterey, California native Santora, along with Rimini hometown hero and Italian national team captain Mario Chiarini–who played for the 2000 Arizona League Mariners and competed in the 2004 Summer Olympics–are the elder statesmen of the squad. These veterans have been both critical to Rimini's success and inspirational to newcomers to the team like Ekstrom. However, nothing means more to the players right now than the EU Champions Cup and the right to represent European baseball in the 2014 Asia Series.
Although the battlegrounds for the European Champions Cup Finals will take place nearby, Rimini and San Marino had to travel great distances to play the other EU Championship teams and win their respective Qualifier Champions Cup bracket to get here. Rimini defeated the best from the Netherlands, Germany, France, Ukraine and host Brno, Czech Republic, while T&A San Marino beat a similar group of international squads which included Italy's Nettuno and home team Vaessen in the Netherlands. Italian Baseball League favorite T&A San Marino may have the edge over Rimini, but the Pirates are not to be underestimated. Rimini outfielder Leonardo Zileri's hitting frenzy in the European Champions Cup Qualifier garnered him a .591 batting average (13-for-22) and awards for MVP and Best Hitter in the tourney. T&A San Marino will counteract with Venezuelan slugger Jairo Ramos, whose performance in the European Champions Cup Qualifier (.500 BA, 2-2B, 2-HR, 9 RBI) yielded similar MVP and Best Hitter accolades in the competition.
With the much anticipated best of three-game series between T&A San Marino and Rimini for the 2014 European Champions Cup taking place beginning August 7th, baseball fever is at its all-time high in Italy. The Federazione Italiana Baseball Softball (FIBS) website will provide up-to-date details and links to the live internet streaming broadcasts. More than a local rivalry between San Marino and Rimini, the ramifications of winning the European Champions Cup extend internationally as the EU representative in the 2014 Asia Series. May the best team win and go on to turn heads in Taiwan. Lord knows an injection of winners' prize money earned abroad would help nurture the growth of the game in Europe.

Whether enjoying Tommy's favorite–a bowl of penne pasta served with red sauce and a mountain of delectable meatballs–which Lasorda swears to taste closest to the way his mother used to make them at home, a Chicken Parmesan sub covered in marinara or a spicy Italian sausage sandwich with peppers and onions, fans cannot go wrong with the plethora of options available at Lasorda's Trattoria. Diners are guaranteed to leave with an ear-to-ear grin after eating cannoli and gelato for dessert.

Italian baseball ambassador Alex Liddi LA bound?
Having a strong presence in Albuquerque since the transcontinental railroad first arrived in the city in 1880, the Italian Americans will now have the opportunity to relish over Italy's pride and joy and San Remo's hometown hero as the latest addition to the Isotopes roster this summer. Similar to that of early Italian immigrants' journey, struggle, and perseverance after leaving their motherland in Italy for better lives in America, Liddi has also endured his own personal and treacherous MLB roller coaster ride up-and-down the ranks in the Seattle Mariners, Baltimore Orioles and Chicago White Sox organizations prior to signing a minor league contract with the LA Dodgers. With most of his Big League experience defensively at first and third, Liddi is a versatile player who can play shortstop and the outfield. Having played in 61 regular season games since making his MLB debut in 2011, the 25-year-old slugger is anxious to prove himself worthy of a trip out west to LA. Alex Liddi has a strong connection to Los Angeles since his father, Agostino (Augustine), graduated from Beverly Hills High School in 1970. Agostino's parents left Italy shortly after World War II to work as tailors in America. While attending Beverly Hills High School, Agostino Liddi played baseball before repatriating to Italy after graduation. It was there that he met his future wife, Flavia, who played softball competitively in Italy. Alex was literally weaned on baseball by his father and mother. You could say that Alex was a truly a baseball baby because it was reported that Flavia played first base for the first three months of her pregnancy carrying Alex. When Alex was old enough to play baseball, his mother coached his teams. As a teenager, his father drove him long distances to compete in games throughout Italy. With sons, Thomas and Alex, the couple shared their love of the game to transform the Liddi's into Italy's premier baseball family.
What made Team Italia so heavenly to watch in the WBC was due in part to manager and Dodgers' European Scout Marco Mazzieri's faith in Alex Liddi. Mike Scioscia's Los Angeles Angels became believers in a WBC warm up exhibition game in Tempe prior to the start of the 2013 international competition. Liddi went 2-for-3 with a double, a two-run home run and 3 RBI against the Halos. The Italian cleanup hitter continued his hot-hitting ways and played stellar defense at third base during the first two WBC games against Mexico and Canada. He literally wrecked havoc on opposing pitchers by going 4-for-7 with two walks, three runs and three RBI. The two wins ensured Team Italia's advancement to the next round of action with USA against WBC Champion Dominican Republic and runner up Puerto Rico. If Liddi can rediscover his offensive prowess while in Albuquerque, then the face of European baseball will be a big name in Little Italy and Chavez Ravine.

Alex Liddi looks on while Drew Butera speaks during a 2013 WBC Press Conference.
Jason Grilli pitches new autobiography while Jason Kendall catches on with his own 'Throwback' book
story. It's more about, if you quit then you lose." Without a doubt, this 215-page book is quite an accomplishment. Grilli discounted the praise and said: "They are short pages, double-spaced. You know all the tricks to make your 10-page paper longer. Maybe that is what it is…a lot of insert pictures in the middle. If you don't want to read the book, at least look at the pictures." Just My Game chronicles Grilli's love of the game of baseball and highlights his incredible and trusting relationship with his best friend and father, former MLB pitcher, Steve Grilli. Just My Game takes readers through the highs and lows of the Team Italia pitcher's career including his 18 strikeout performance as a junior at Seton Hall, his selection as the #4 first-round pick in the 1997 draft, life in the minor leagues, and his recovery from several near career-ending injuries leading up to the Pittsburgh Pirates' remarkable 2013 playoff run. Jason Grilli will be making several book signing appearances in the coming months in support of the launch of his long-awaited autobiography. Be the first to purchase Just My Game before it goes on sale to the public by visiting Jason Grilli's Facebook. Readers will be pleasantly surprised to find the eloquent foreword to Grilli's book written by 2013 National League Manager of the Year and Pirates' skipper Clint Hurdle. Known to be a proponent of the power of positive thinking, Hurdle is the perfect setup man for Grilli's autobiography.
Hurdle has been busy of late reading Jason Kendall's Throwback, which was co-written by sportswriter Lee Judge. When asked if fans should buy Jason Kendall and Lee Judge's Throwback, Hurdle responded: "Give this book a read. I've known Lee Judge for over 20 years. He has an unquenchable thirst for 'Why' questions and a passion for the game. He doesn't just want the answers. He wants understanding. I've spent time with him in Minor League and Major League cities and clubhouses, and we are still friends! There is a sincere effort and old school way this book has been put together, and it is deserving of your time. You will laugh. You will learn. You will leave with a greater understanding and appreciation for the game we love." America's favorite pastime has always left fans and amateur players alike yearning for the answers to questions about how pros play the game. Have you ever wondered about pre-game rituals, what is being said at home plate, the signs a catcher uses to communicate with the pitcher, how a team silently communicates and the right way to hit a batter or what goes on behind closed clubhouse doors? All-Star catcher Jason Kendall is more than qualified to shed some light on the subject using his 15-years playing behind home plate with the Pittsburgh Pirates, Oakland Athletics, Chicago Cubs, Milwaukee Brewers, and Kansas City Royals as a true testament. Toronto Blue Jays manager John Gibbons summed it up nicely when he characterized Kendall and his new book as winners. Gibby said, "Jason Kendall is the ultimate competitor, a modern-day gladiator. If you had nine Jason Kendalls, you could never lose." Undoubtedly, Throwback provides readers an opportunity to gain an insider's view of the game from a true-grit player's perspective. Coupled with Jason Grilli's new offering of Just My Game, baseball fanatics now have a winning combination of required reading guaranteed to bring hours of enjoyment and a fonder appreciation of what makes these players truly inspirational.
Why Mike Piazza is Italian American of the Decade
Mike Piazza is a baseball immortal regardless of what a pack of bitter, jealous sports writers think. Everyone knows he was The Man.
— Thomas Wilkinson (@RosenblattsBoss) January 8, 2014
"We just want to continue to draw attention to the fact that we believe baseball is marketable in Italy. We think it's viable. We think there's a lot of upward growth. We can produce players over there. I'm convinced of it," said Piazza. 17-year-old switch-hitting shortstop Marten Gasparini–compared to a young Derek Jeter–and 19-year-old lefthanded-hitting catcher Alberto Mineo lead the charge of the Italian baseball revolution spurred by Dodgers scout/Team Italia manager Marco Mazzieri and coaches Holmberg and Piazza.
Just spent amazing week at Dodgertown with @FIBSpress Italian National team preparing to defend European title. Thank you @Mets for tix 2day
— Mike Piazza (@mikepiazza31) February 28, 2014
International baseball ambassador Mike Piazza traveled to Veneto, Italy recently to speak to an enthusiastic audience at the 29th Annual Coaches Convention. Piazza said, "We all overteach and overanalyze hitting. Everyone has their own opinion, but in actuality–just as Ted Williams explained in his book The Science of Hitting--the number one rule is to get a good ball to hit. Gaining an understanding of the strike zone and what you can and can't hit is the key. Simply spoken, you can't hit what you can't see." Twelve years ago in 2002 Piazza met FIBS President Riccardo Fraccari while visiting Italy on a MLB International mission to help the game develop in Europe. Fraccari asked Piazza if he would be interested in representing Italy in international competition, and the proud Italian American responded that it would be privilege to play for the Italian national team in honor of his Sicilian ancestry. During a 2006 World Baseball Classic press conference, Piazza addressed reporters who questioned why he chose to join Team Italia and said, "You may not understand it, but for Italian Americans getting a chance to finally play for Italy is like a duck chick getting close to the water for the first time." The Italians have since fared well in the World Baseball Classic, nearly upsetting 2013 WBC Champion Dominican Republic and runner-up Puerto Rico. Piazza's influence swayed Cubs' slugger Anthony Rizzo to play for Team Italia alongside other MLB Italian Americans including Padres' Chris Denorfia, A's Nick Punto, Twins' Chris Colabello and Pirates' Jason Grilli. Piazza's power of persuasion even impacted the Team Italia coaching staff as former MLB journeyman Frank Catalanotto joined the Italian baseball revolution. Team Italia's homegrown talent held its own and contributed to the overall chemistry of the squad. Alessandro Maestri–the first Italian-born-and-developed pitcher signed by MLB in 2006 and infielder Alex Liddi–the first Italian-born-and-developed player to make his MLB debut in 2011 have benefitted greatly from Piazza's guidance and mentorship.
Grazie di nuovo @FIBSpress! Had an amazing time in Veneto. Great coaches convention. Forza Italia!
— Mike Piazza (@mikepiazza31) January 19, 2014
Maestri said, "It's great to have him around in the dugout. He's like doing this for fun. He enjoys working with us… That's why we appreciate it so much. I think he is positively influencing the program that we have. The fact that the team is winning and improving proves it. So that's why he keeps coming back." Liddi echoed the sentiment and said, "When you have coaches like Mike Piazza and Frank Catalanotto—guys who have been in the big leagues for a long time—it makes it fun just to be around them. You're able to ask them questions and learn from them."Piazza has been a proponent of uplifting and preserving his Italian cultural heritage by supporting the efforts of the National Italian American Foundation (NIAF), George Randazzo–founder of the National Italian American Sports Hall of Fame and Roberto Angotti–curator of the Artists' Tribute to Italian Americans in Baseball Exhibition. Piazza befriended Angotti during the two weeks Team Italia spent in Phoenix preparing for the 2013 World Baseball Classic. When Hall of Famer Tommy Lasorda dropped in on Team Italia's practice at Dodgers' Spring Training Camp in Glendale to address the team, Roberto knew he was on the frontline of the Italian baseball revolution. Lasorda's emotionally-driven speech coupled with Piazza's serious commitment inspired Angotti to share the experience with others through a traveling exhibit paying tribute to Italian American baseball.
GREAT READ from @ABLblogger: http://t.co/UALj2T8U Team #Italy hitting coach Mike Piazza believes in the #WBCBaseball
— WBC Baseball (@WBCBaseball) January 10, 2013
Piazza said,"This commitment I have with the Italian Federation is something I really care about. I feel a strong tie to Italy, since my heritage is there. My grandfather Rosario came from Sciacca, Sicily, to the United States and my father grew me up following the Italian tradition pretty much. I think it's in our DNA to strive to work hard and persevere. Most our ancestors came over to the United States with just the clothes on their back. I think that was the case with my grandfather, who had nothing in his pocket to start a life here in the U.S. When we have the strength and pride of the Italian family with the support we can give one another, it builds character and allows us to achieve our true potential. I don't think there are a lot of Italian American families that don't have strong support behind them. I do not pretend to say what is not true, I grew up as an American boy. Now, getting older, I understand the value of my heritage and I want to give something back to Italy."

Fire chief enters plea deal to resolve flashlight caseBy Patrick McArdle
STAFF WRITER | January 09,2013BENNINGTON The chief of the Bennington Rural Fire Department pleaded guilty on Tuesday to a misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct after police said he threw a flashlight at a car June 3 while he was at a fire scene, but its likely hell avoid having a criminal record.
Joseph T. Hayes, 43, of North Bennington, was arraigned in Bennington criminal court in July on the charge of disorderly conduct and a misdemeanor charge of unlawful mischief.
Under the agreement reached Tuesday, Hayes pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct but the charge of unlawful mischief has been dismissed.
In addition, Hayes sentence for the charge was deferred for four months. He will appear before the reparative board and, if he complies with whatever the board requires of him and stays out of further legal trouble, the case will be dismissed and Hayes conviction will be sealed.
William D. Wright, the attorney who represented Hayes, continued to maintain that his client had only been doing his duty as a fire chief at the scene of an emergency. He said it had been a troubling case for him and his client.
According to Wright, Hayes was on North Bennington Road, handling a situation involving arcing power lines in a tree June 3 around 10:20 p.m. Wright said Frederick Grant drove through the scene, past the fire police, without slowing down.
Wright said the car drove toward Hayes rapidly and Hayes had to move quickly out of the way to avoid being hit.
As he did so, he sort of instinctively underhanded the flashlight towards the vehicle. I dont want the impression that he kind of wound-up and was off to the side of the road and threw it because thats simply not accurate, Wright said.
However, Bennington Police Officer Andy Hunt, who was called to the scene by Hayes reporting that he had almost been run over, said Grant told him that he hadnt seen Hayes because he wasnt wearing the proper reflective gear.
Grant also insisted that he was driving slowly, in part because there were other vehicles in front of him, and said Hayes yelled obscenities at him.
Hunt said Grant told him later that the flashlight thrown at his vehicle caused $1,000 in damage.
On Tuesday, Wright said Hayes decided to enter a guilty plea after multiple trips to court.
This system has a way of simply wearing people down, he said.
Wright said Hayes was happy to be done with the case and had no intention of stepping down as chief or from the fire department.
However, Wright said the Bennington Rural Fire Department would be changing its policy toward handling emergency scenes as a result of the incident and the decision to charge Hayes.
Wright said they would no longer be making an effort to keep the highways open and traffic moving while they were doing their work.
They dont feel protected and theyre shutting the roads down, he said.
Hayes faced another criminal charge in 2007 when he was accused of embezzling from his own fire department. The case was referred to the diversion program and resolved, which kept Hayes from having a criminal record in that case as well.

Diva In A Dark World–How I'm Surviving My First Blackout
Friday night I was jolted awake, like many others, by the loudest crack of thunder I had ever heard. I rolled over to see flashes of lightening shining through my bedroom window like someone flicking a light switch on and off over and over. That's when I heard the fans stop and my alarm clock go black. The power was out. And so began my first official blackout as a new homeowner, and all of the lessons that come with it.

Like getting down and gnashing on the very stalk of a soft shielded fern. It's strong, sweetly boozy and it makes my lips sticky. What's not to love?

Anne Hathaway Is Furious at James Franco For Siding With Her Haters
Bride Wars? More like, former co-host wars!
Anne Hathaway is not happy that James Franco discussed their contentious relationship and seemed to understand where her haters were coming from, according to Radar Online.
James was being interviewed by Howard Stern this week when he revealed that he and Anne no longer speak, and then he agreed with Howard that people dislike Anne for being a goody two-shoes.
"Anne can't believe James has openly discussed the past and how they aren't really on talking terms anymore," a source says.
"She thinks he did it purely to drum up publicity for Spring Breakers," the source adds. "But, as far as she's concerned, James pulled an unprofessional move by talking about her during the interview with Howard Stern."
Apparently, Anne wishes James — whom she co-hosted the 2011 Oscars with to disastrous results — would have just said "no comment."
"Stern did provoke Franco, but he didn't have to respond," according to the insider. "And she couldn't believe that he said he understands why people dislike her.
"Anne would never air her dirty laundry in public and is intensely private," the source continues. "It's opened up old wounds, is totally unnecessary, and she's fuming."
It sounds like Anne and James won't be having a great and powerful friendship anytime soon.

Personally I like the XC, but I don't really lke the engine until you get it wound up (hate the whine it makes at low revs, sounds good higher up, doesn't produce much torque down low) I don't like the 800GS gear ratios, but the Tiger is much worse ... 1st is way too high, top is too low.
I could go on ... the GS is lighter, uses less fuel, the maintence costs are apparently lower, and so on. Yes the standard seat is terrible and the suspension could be better.
So how about you go and ride the XC on some real adventures and then get back to us and then we will be really interested !

JK CM chairs UHQ meeting
Filed Under: Media & Tech, World | Posted: 10/01/2012 at 8:47AM
Comments | Region: India
Srinagar, September 30 (Scoop News)- In the meeting of the Combined Unified Headquarters held Monday afternoon, the Chief Minister, Omar Abdullah directed that peace and security should be maintained under all circumstances and the incidents aimed at disturbing tranquility and threatening innocent grass root public representatives dealt in an effective manner.
The meeting of UHQ chaired by the Chief Minister here took stock of prevailing security scenario and law and order situation in the State.
The scenario developed after the killing of two Panchayat Members in the Valley recently was reviewed in detail in the meeting. The meeting discussed ways and means to provide required protection to Panchayat Members to help them function smoothly and securely.
The Chief Minister directed that proper security assessment of elected panchayat members should be worked out to provide the security cover in vulnerable areas. He also reviewed arrangements made by army, security forces and State police to remain vigilant and take all necessary steps to instill confidence in elected representatives.
The impact of various measures already taken as decided in the last meeting of UHQ was also reviewed in the meeting.

Hypnosis to Quit Smoking: Dealing with the Mental Side of Addiction
In my experience, most quitting smoking methods make one of two mistakes. Either they focus too much on the physical aspects of nicotine addiction, or they operate based on the assumption that we smoke because of triggers. Hypnosis is the best way to quit smoking because it doesn't do either of these things. Instead, it goes deep into your mind and makes real changes to the blueprints for who you are and why you act, think, and feel the way you do.
Why Other Methods Don't Work
Of course, I'm not denying that the physical reasons for smoking are important. Yes, smoking changes how the body works. And when a nicotine addict goes too long without a cigarette, the body is thrown out of balance, and it starts to rebel.
But the fact is that these are just side effects of a deep mental condition. People smoke because they want to. And if they only smoked when they're body asked for a cigarette, people wouldn't be smoking one or two or more packs a day. Nicotine just doesn't move through the system fast enough to make you physically need a cigarette that often.
As for the trigger-focused methods of quitting, these also miss the point. Triggers are just shallow things that we dress our cravings in. Cravings come regardless of what we do, and it's just part of our human nature to want to attribute them to something.
If you don't believe me, try this: Make a list of all your triggers, and then avoid all of these things for 2-3 hours. No doubt you'll find new ones to replace the old ones. This shows that it doesn't matter what your triggers are; your deeper cravings are what's important.
In short, quitting methods like the patch, gum, and prescription pills rarely work because they only deal with your physical symptoms, and they don't address your deep, underlying desire to smoke. And methods that encourage you to avoid your triggers don't work because your cravings run much deeper than that.
Why Hypnosis is the Best Way to Quit Smoking
So, how does using hypnosis to quit smoking avoid these common mistakes?
It's simple. Hypnosis cuts way down deep to that part of you where your desire to smoke lives. It goes beyond the physical, and it goes beyond shallow triggers. It addresses your psychological reasons for becoming addicted, and it even balances out any genetic disposition you may have toward addiction.
You don't have to analyze it, really. Do you suspect that your addiction comes from some kind of psychological issue or even a childhood trauma? If so, don't worry about it. Free quit smoking hypnosis mp3 sessions will give you the strength to beat whatever these underlying issues may be, without having to pay for years of psychotherapy or hypnotherapy to give up smoking.
Plus, other than the fact that it works, the best thing about using hypnosis to quit smoking is that it's very cheap, sometimes even free. You can choose to see a professional hypnotherapist if you have a little time and money to spend, or you can try stop smoking self-hypnosis at home using quit smoking hypnosis download or streaming stop smoking hypnosis mp3 sessions. Here's the program that worked for me and I offer it to you for free – just kick the habit for good.

The Senate voted narrowly on Thursday to block a vote on confirmation of President Barack Obama's choice of Chuck Hagel as defense secretary, planning another vote for Feb. 26 - when it is expected to pass.
The tally was 58-40, with almost every Republican voting no, falling short of the 60 needed to pass a motion in the 100-seat chamber to stop debate and allow a vote by the full Senate on confirming the former Republican senator to the post.
The Senate's Democratic majority leader, Harry Reid, said the Senate would vote again on the motion on Feb. 26, after it returns from a week-long recess. Republicans said they expected the motion would pass then, after they have had more time to consider the nomination, clearing the way for the full Senate to vote on Hagel's confirmation.
With Democrats controlling a majority of 55 votes in the Senate, Hagel's nomination is expected to win the simple majority of 51 votes it needs to be passed by the full Senate once such a vote is allowed.

OpenContainers (aka OC) is an open C++ containers library, similar to the C++ Standard Template Library (aka the C++ STL or STL) or Boost library. OpenContainers addresses threading issues (see below) that the STL does not. The OC also has tools to make the C++ environment feel more like Python (much like some of the tools in the Boost libraries).
OpenContainers (OC) are freely distributable and freely modifiable.
OpenContainers derives directly from the containers libraries from Midas 2k, a C++ Digital Signal Processing framework that was heavily thread-based. The interfaces of the OC are not compatible with the STL, as they predate the STL (or rather, predate the STL's ubiquity). The OC library represents a large effort for scalability work, and has been used successfully in applications that have hundreds of threads. Many of the OpenContainers assumptions are thread-based: see OpenContainers Assumptions below.
The current C++ STL standard is silent on issues related to threads, so the STL on a particular platform can yield very poor performance in a threaded environment. For example, threads can synchronize too often, serialize behind each other, etc.. See Library Assumptions for more discussion. OpenContainers has been written specifically to be used in a thread heavy environment. It also been written to be portable so that it can be used on multiple platforms.
The OpenContainers library also includes tools to make the C++ experience more like the Python experience, with the feel of dynamic typing using standard datatypes and simple syntax. The key to this is the trinity of the Val, Tab and Arr datatypes. The Tab looks and feels like Python dictionaries (or an STL map), Arrs look and feel like Python lists (or an STL vector), and Vals are the recursive, heterogeneous containers that make everything work together. See the example below.
----Figure 1.1: Example Tab t = "{ 'key1':1, 'key2':2 }"; // like Python dictionary
Arr a = "[1, 2.2, 'three']"; // like Python list
Val v = t["key1"]; // lookup in a dictionary
a.append(v); // append to end of a list
Val any = Tab(); // Heterogeneous container
any[1] = t; /// .. contains a Tab
any[2] = "hello"; /// .. contains a string
any['three'] = a; /// .. contains an Arr
For more examples, see the OpenContainers documentation.
OpenContainers also have a simple tool for pickling (Python's nomenclature for serializing data to disk, sockets, etc.) that is compatible with Python, so OC and Python can communicate easily.
The Boost library also has some similar Python functionality, but sacrifices simplicity for generality.

The Psychopathology of Everyday Life may be considered Sigmund Freud's most accessible work. The book was published under the original German title Zur Psychopathologie des Alltagslebens, in 1901.
It seems to be quite normal for us to be unable to remember a name or a person. Maybe we forgot to go on a date. It is possible to lose a thing received from a dear friend. Therefore we ask ourselves if all these acts are caused by a dangerous process of brain damage or if they are just the expression of several tensions or mental conflicts. Freud, the Father of Psychoanalysis, suggests that our everyday psychopathology is a minor disturbance of mental life which may quickly pass away. Even if we consider these acts to be normal and common in our lives, Freud believed that all these acts have an important significance. According to his new theory, our everyday psychopathology makes us transparent for people around us as well as it makes the other transparent for us. The most trivial slips of the tongue or pen may reveal people's secret feelings and fantasies.
Freud explores phenomena such as: slips of the tongue, also known as Freudian slips, acts of forgetfulness, misinterpretations, and 'accidents' in his great work The Psychopathology of Everyday Life. This book may help many of us to better understand our behavior because every day we deal with several bizarre errors. Freud tried to describe all these acts using an accessible language.

What is a Lion?
Lions are volunteers that want to help people in and around our community. We care and want to give of our time and money to help those that need our help. Children and adults receive our help in many ways through our support of a diverse range of community programs and charitable causes.
What do Lions do?
Historically, Lions are known for our campaigns to eradicate preventable blindness and to provide support and services to the visually impaired. Our commitment to this cause arose out of Helen Keller's address to our International Convention in 1925, when she exhorted the Lions to "constitute yourselves Knights of the Blind in this crusade against darkness?"
Our commitment to our communities extends far beyond our commitment to the causes of blindness and vision. Local clubs operate autonomously and are charged with identifying needs in our local communities and devising the means to meet those needs. Lions Clubs support Little League teams and Boy Scout Troops; we sponsor drug awareness and youth leadership development programs; we feed the hungry and shelter the homeless; we are among the first responders to disasters of any kind, bringing cash and volunteers to do whatever is needed to help the victims; we build ramps to help the handicapped access their homes and workplaces. Whatever human need you can imagine, Lions somewhere are working to address it.
Our motto is "We Serve," and that we do in countless ways. Visit the Lions Clubs International website and the LCI Blog for more information, or better yet, find a club near you and visit them to see what Lions are doing in your community.

GREENFIELD — The Hancock County Fairgrounds was abuzz with activity Sunday during a Girl Scout-themed multicultural event for kids.
Each February, Girls Scouts across the globe commemorate World Thinking Day, an event aimed at raising awareness of Scouting.
Locally, the event drew about 200 Girl Scouts on Sunday to the fairgrounds, where troops set up booths with a display about the state or country of their choice.
Sitting beside the Georgia booth was a woman wearing a special nametag – Juliette Low.
Her real name is Cheryl Curry, and she's a regional membership director for the Girl Scouts; but Sunday, she was portraying the program's founder, southern accent and all.
When Curry puts on her scouting hat and trench coat, she's a decent lookalike for the woman featured on the inside of the World Thinking Day booklet.
"I kind of look like her, actually," Curry said.
