NEW YORK -- With Carlos Beltran playing in his first rehab game in Port St. Lucie on Thursday, Mets manager Jerry Manuel said Beltran returning to play by Monday in Puerto Rico can't be ruled out.
"He might end up there," Manuel said. "You never know."
However, an executive with knowledge of the Mets' thinking said later the team knows Monday would be "too quck" and is "not going to happen."
If Beltran's rehab goes well through the weekend, Manuel thinks Beltran will push to return in his home country of Puerto Rico, where the Mets play the Marlins beginning Monday.
"If he plays well, he will be making calls up here," Manuel said.
Manuel went onto say that Beltran would have to do "extremely well" to make Puerto Rico realistic.
What hurts Beltran's chances is that the field in Puerto Rico is Astroturf, which wouldn't be ideal for Beltran -- coming off knee surgery -- to play his first major league game of the season.
"It would be a tough sell," Manuel said.
But he refused to say an impossible one. The executive, though, made it sound imposssible.

Learning Scandinavian Languages
I am a 23 yo Moroccan, and I'm very interested in learning the scandinavian languages Swedish, Norwegian, Danish and Finnish as well. Are they easy to learn ? Can I learn them all simultaneously? And is there some one amongst you who would like to teach me and I will teach you Arabic and French :)
Hi Faris ! As a Frenchman who learnt Norwegian for years during my teenage years, I found it easy, the grammar and vocabulary being close to English.
Of course, as you may know, it is a Germanic languages. Danish and Swedish are very close to Norwegian (especially the former). When you speak Norwegian, you can be understood without major difficulties by Swedes and Danes. So I recommend learning one of the 3 languages and focus on it. Icelandic and Faroese belong to the same group.
As for Finnish language, though, it has nothing to do with the 3 Scandinavian languages and stand on its own. Much more difficult.
20 years ago, I had bought a very effective method to learn but now it's no more available and I already gave it to someone. I still have my 2 dictionaries which I use regularly, when reading the "Norsk Nyheter" on Internet. Of course, travelling throughout beautiful Norway brought a major improvement to my accent and fluency.
Good luck mate. "Lykke til !"
If you speak english well, then norwegian is not so hard grammar wise. My biggest two difficulties are the following:
Preposition choice - it doesnt seem to line up as perfectly to english as say French prepositions do.
Pronounciation - This makes norwegian more difficult for me to understand than other scandinavian languages because of the silent consonants which themselves seem to vary based on where in norway you are. This is probably similar to how english can be difficult for others to learn.
From my perspective having learned French also but being native English, french is easier to learn from a grammatical and pronounciation standpoint because it is so consistent, but norwegian is easier for me to speak fluently because I have to think less about the differences with english.
Finnish is not technically scandinavian. Some say its very hard because its grammar is case based instead of preposition base, but one nice thing about it a Finn friend told me is its extremely predictable once you have learned the grammar, and pronounciation is pretty standard.

"Soul to Sol", the new album from Ruby Flower Records by poet Miguel Algarin and bass player Albey Balgochian is a fusion of candid words and the eccentric tones from the upright bass. The cerebral exchange between Algarin and Balgochian is striking and unexpectedly harmonious as they delve into the twisted realm of the subconscious mind.
Balgochian's exploration of the underbelly of the bass is a study in the flexibility of the instrument and its alter-ego to depict the world of the dark and mysterious psyche. Algarin is equally provocative, a description given to him by his colleague the poet Amiri Baraka, as he vents about the ails of society and the contradictions that procure prejudices to thrive in cultures. Together, the pair demonstrate the effectiveness of the spoken word and improved bass to move people to become aware of the under side of common thinking.
Algarin's words in the track "Fear" penetrate the mind in ways that other scholars hesitate to tread as he proposes, "They envy our private meditation / They ring every pure emotion out of us… They rape with a cable TV, the invisible spy / They rape with a cable TV, the invisible spy / Transmitting while appearing to be off." Algarin's words motivate people to think about their surroundings, their decisions, their government's decisions, and the decisions made by industries that infiltrate people's lifestyle.
Algarin and Balgochian's collaborative pairing on "Soul to Sol" is an experimental expression of music and lyrics as the bass feeds off of the words and vice versa. Scholars have argued that there are two basic struggles in life, man vs. man and man vs. nature. In Algarin and Balgochian's belief system there is one struggle to face and that is man vs. his own nature. Their album means to make other's aware of themselves.

It always fun and interesting to eat @ Toby Keith's. We were seated upstairs. I can't remember having to go upstairs @ a restaurant before? The food was excellent and large portions. The servers were very attentive.
I had a party of 10 the wait wasn't to long people waiting ahead of us left. The place was packed we were seated upstairs above the bar. Waiter was nice a bit slow. The noise was overwhelming so loud we couldn't even talk to each other. Had a nice local beer. Great wine but it's a bar so I...
There were eight family members in attendance. The place was packed, but the wait was not long. The server was very friendly, and the food was "decent", but way over priced. The volume level was not conducive to having a conversation, and being able to hear each other. I like Toby Keith, but not his restaurant.
Loved the atmosphere here. Casual and fun with lots of memorabilia. Sports and country music on the TV's. Really liked all the seats the were made from truck beds and tailgates. Take a minute to read some of the bumper stickers. fun!
Food is good. It's casual American food. Catfish, steak, ribs, chicken fried steak. The coleslaw is fantastic! It's...
My husband and I spent the night at the Hard Rock Casino. We decided to try Toby Keith's. There was no wait to be seated. The restaurant is a casual atmosphere: wooden tables, memorabilia on the wall, and country music playing. The server was very friendly and offered drink suggestions. I tried a fruity drink she suggested called Pink Panther...
It's ok food, haven't eaten anything yet that makes me want to go back for more. Guess you have to want the atmosphere and casino feel.
Took my daughter and granddaughter out. My granddaughter had her first Mac and cheese. She loved the food and music. Service was good and the food was good, served in large portions. I know my 9 month old granddaughter made a mess but the waitress was very friendly and helpful!! We will be back.
Fun place and atmosphere. The food was a little pricey, but plentiful. However the mood of the place was really fun and festive. The waitstaff was really good and attentive. We will return if we find ourselves in the area again.
Ate at Toby Keith's with my husband, kids and my 2 siblings while on a weekend night stay at the Hard Rock. We wandered in to Toby Keith's and ended up having a great time. The wait staff was super friendly, helpful and recommended food choices. We ordered 3 different appetizers and loved them all. Steak was great, burgers were...
I'm in town on business and saw the signs for Toby Keith's restaurant. After asking around, I didn't have high expectations but knew that I was going to go because I really like Toby Keith.
The restaurant matched my expectations - the servers were good, the food was decent - it was over-priced, but I knew that going in...mark this...

Really huge bath sheets at an excellent price. Extremely pleased with this purchase. Also purchased the three piece smaller towel set which also has an oversized standard bath towel. Like the substance of these towels. If you like the fluffy, puffy that take forever to get you dry, but look spiffy, not for you. If you like large, attractive towels that do the job, you wil be delighted.

The bath sheets were the clincher on this deal. Great price for great towels and you even get bath sheets! I love them. Will buy them again.

This towel set looks very nice in our master bath. Not as fluffy as some towels, but they do the job!

Luxuriously thick and soft. They wash beautifully! Bonus that the bath towels have a loop for hanging from a hook too. I am buying another set of these wonderful towels now!

They are a great towel for the guest bath. nice and thick, but not as fancy as I like for the master bath.

I really like these towels. They are plush and super absorbent. They wash well, however, they take more time to dry than your regular bath towel. I highly recommend them and have bought sets for friends and family.

Often towels that are soft are not very absorbant. Not the case with these. These towels dry better than the more expensive ones I bought at a large bath store.

Sergey Kurginyan: Russia's Responses to Azerbaijani and Armenian Impulses are Conditioned by the Rules of Geopolitical Market
A Yerevan-based 168-Zham newspaper reports that after Tigran Sargsyan was appointed Prime Minister of Armenia, business representatives of the Prosperous Armenia Party have been making efforts of reconciliation with him. In the meanwhile, the political wing of the party offers a tougher political course, for instance, Vartan Oskanian offers joining the opposition, the paper writes.
According to the source, Leader of Prosperous Armenia Gagik Tsarukyan still prefers the "neither authorities nor opposition" version. To reconcile the conflicting parties, G. Tsarukyan will shortly declare that he is ready for the parliamentary elections of 2017 and the presidential elections of 2018. To sound more convincing, Tsarukyan will have to explain why he did not run for president in 2013 and substantiate the expediency of running for president in 2018.
"If the slogan 'Tsarukyan-President' proves insufficiently convincing, Prosperous Armenia Party may split into several groups: businessmen, radical opposition, and neutral apolitical figures," the paper writes.

THR's Women in Entertainment 2011: Power 100
Last year, Warner Bros. International took in $2.93 billion at the foreign box office, setting a record and beating all major studios. And this year, Kwan-Rubinek expects revenues to cross $3 billion. "I am very proud that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 grossed $953 million internationally -- 44 percent higher than the last film. And it secured the biggest international opening of all time, $313.5 million from 59 countries," she says.
Kwan-Rubinek also enjoyed huge success with The Hangover Part II, which earned $331 million offshore (73 percent more than the original) to become the top R-rated comedy of all time.
THR's 2011 Women in Entertainment Power 100
The nature of her job means she's constantly criss-crossing the globe, with Europe her most frequented region. "Traveling gets harder as you get older, but I truly enjoy it," says Kwan-Rubinek, 48, who recently remarried and relocated from Encino to Santa Monica with her 13-year-old son and 5-year-old daughter. "The commute is a little longer, but I just love coming home."

Lucid Dreaming Review
in Self Help
The term lucid dreaming describes the experience of consciously recognizing during a dream that you are dreaming. By involving your conscious awareness in a dreaming activity, you can learn to control the content of your dream and its course of action. The more mindful and fully conscious you are in your normal waking state, the easier it will be for you to master lucidity in your dreaming state.

Lucid Dreaming with Bill and Anita Murphy
in Paranormal
The hit SyFy show Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files may be history, but its stars are staying busy. Lead scientist Bill Murphy was the very first guest on AMH when we launched back in 2012. He is an avid paranormal researcher, documentary film maker, and a highly in-demand celebrity speaker. He's back, along with his wife and partner Anita McMillian Murphy, to discuss some of the new projects in the works since we last spoke.
The Murphy's latest project delves in to the world of lucid dreaming. Two years of research and development has gone into DreamNET: The Programmable Lucid Dreaming Headband. The goal is to trigger self awareness and control while wearing the device, leading to endless possibilities.
Building on the research conducted at the Neurological Clinic Sleep Laboratory in Frankfurt Germany, Murphy's team has developed a prototype that can been worn during sleep that allows a dreamer to transistion from unaware to aware within a dream and finally to awake permitting dream recall.
Bill's company, Synapse recently launched a Kickstarter campaign for DreamNET allowing backers to get in on this groundbreaking research and be among the first to own the headband for themselves. User friendly, affordable, and unquestionably fascinating, the DreamNET headband takes us one step closer to understanding and controlling lucid dreams.
Billy and Anita Murphy are moving the fields of hard science and the paranormal ever closer together with this amazing research.

Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
21 Jan 2013 11:55 GMT | Politics, US & Canada, Israel, United States
Charlotte Silver is an independent journalist in San Francisco, formerly based in the West Bank, Palestine.
Recent statements by the Palestinian Authority declaring premonitions of the coming of an apartheid state in the likely event that Binyamin Netanyahu is re-elected have left many observers scratching their heads and questioning, yet again, the relevance of the nearly two decades-old titular government of the occupied Palestinian territories. Its irrelevance appearing firmly established to anyone paying attention, statements like these attest to a more disturbing estrangement from reality.
According to an Associated Press article published on January 19, "Palestinian officials have been closely following the Israeli election campaign, fearing Netanyahu's ambitious plans for settlement construction over the next four years could prove lethal to their dreams of a state."
Yet PA concerns over which Zionist party ascends to the Israeli Knesset are not shared by the
Yet PA concerns over which Zionist party ascends to the Israeli Knesset are not shared by the majority of Palestinian citizens of the State - the only Palestinians living under Israeli rule who actually have a vote.
Palestinian participation in Israeli elections for Parliament have dwindled over the past decade. In 2001, Palestinian voter turnout reached a historic low of 18 percent due to an organised electoral boycott after the October 2000 killings of 13 Palestinian citizens by Israeli forces and the outbreak of the second intifada. Turnout bounced back in 2003, rising to 62 percent but has steadily decreased over the last two elections to 56 percent and 53 percent in 2006 and 2009, respectively. Now some polls estimate that as little as 28 percent of Palestinian citizens will show up to the polls, while more cautious - or optimistic - predictions put the number at just under half the electorate.
According to the Mossawa Center, the Advocacy Center for Arab Citizens in Israel, Palestinians are abstaining from the vote not only in deliberate protest, but because their tangible experience leads them to the understandable conviction that the Knesset will never represent them or serve their interests.
Consider these facts: since 2011, 35 pieces of discriminatory legislation have been submitted to the Knesset; between 2011 and 2012 elected representatives and community leaders directed 60 racist actions against non-Jews (most of them Palestinians); as of 2012, 27 percent of Palestinian homes remain without a sewage system; a mere four percent of city planning budgets are allocated to minority communities; and three times more money is allotted to Jewish students than their Palestinian/Arab counterparts. This is just a handful of the reasons why 79 percent of Palestinian citizens say they have no confidence in the Knesset, according to one Haifa University study.
Notably, the above AP article also reported that the PA President's office has been meeting with leaders from Israel's "centrist" opposition parties, including Labour, during which they all wrung their hands and bemoaned the decreasing plausibility and popularity of a two-state solution.
Daniel Ben-Simon, a Parliamentarian for Labour, told the AP that "Abbas said the two-state solution benefits both nations but he warned that if there is no two-state solution within the next two or three years then it won't be practical anymore... Abbas told me explicitly... the idea of a one-state solution is escalating among Palestinians."
So it appears the Palestinian Authority is just as vested in the dying embers of a two-state solution as the centrist-opposition parties in Israel. According to Nazareth-based journalist, Jonathan Cook, writing for The Electronic Intifada, the "centre-left" opposition parties have recently begun to worry about the increasingly disillusioned Palestinian population only because they need it in order to bolster their own political leverage as an opposition bloc. Furthermore, Cook argues, "The parties' claim to left-wing or centrist credentials derives from their emphasis on reducing the tensions that Netanyahu has allowed to escalate between Israel and its sponsors, the US and the European Union. The centre-left is concerned about Israel's image abroad and making the necessary concessions - including reviving an endless peace process with the Palestinians - to prevent a further deterioration in Israel's strategic position."
And so we face the discomfiting reality that the PA and the centrists of Israel find common ground, both wishing to roll back the developments of the past year that has seen increased calls by Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip for resistance to Israeli colonialism as well as a one-state solution and an end to mendacious "peace talks" - in other words, a movement that threatens the relevance of both these political institutions, their lifeblood being revived at the same source.
Returning to relevance
The denial and erasure of Palestinian history continues to range from the grotesque, such as overtly racist sentiments including the stale - but still trotted out - claim that "Palestinians are an invented people", to rabid and equally racist popular political rhetoric that would see Palestinians stripped of their Israeli citizenship, to the personally expedient - like Mahmoud Abbas' promotion of one Zionist party over another for the purpose of keeping his job.
Within the ugly spectacle of an increasingly right-wing, racist Israeli government, it is heartening to see a spectre of humanity: a day after the election a new photographic exhibit will open, sponsored by Zochrot, an organisation dedicated to remembrance of the Nakba. The exhibit will feature photos taken over the last ten years that document the Palestinian city, Jisr al-Zarqa. Standing in stark contrast to the electoral sideshow, this exhibit will doubtless illuminate significant Palestinian history but may also provide ample insight into why Palestinian citizens of Israel will stay home on Tuesday.
Jisr al-Zarqa is one of two Palestinian villages on Israel's Mediterranean coast that survived the Nakba. It lies just north of the affluent Jewish city, Qisarya, which is built atop the first Palestinian village to be destroyed in 1948, its 1,500 residents expelled in the course of a few hours. According to Ilan Pappe, Jisr al-Zarqa was spared only for the sake of the nearby newly established Jewish settlements, its residents to be used as a source of "unskilled" labour.
Today, Jisr al-Zarqa is one of the poorest communities in Israel and systematically isolated from the rest of the country. In 2002, the same year Israel built the Separation Wall, the Qisarya Development Company began constructing an earthen embankment to separate the city of Qisarya from Jisr al-Zarqa. In defence of their decision to build the ungainly barrier, the company said they wished to block out unwanted acoustic "hazards" such as the Muslim call to prayer, loud parties, or fireworks. They also said they wished to keep out the "scourge" of Jisr al-Zarqa that might easily "infiltrate" Qisarya.
Jisr al-Zarqa also remains the only coastal city that is disconnected from the main highway that connects Haifa to Tel Aviv, thus leaving the impoverished village dependent on a one- kilometre road that was deemed to be a safety hazard by the Road Safety Service. The State of Israel refuses to support the town's once thriving fishing industry.
Jisr al-Zarqa is exemplary of Palestine's scarred history after Zionism inflicted its brutal wounds. Zochrot's exhibit will consist of photographs taken by Ron Amir, a young photographer who found his way to Jisr al-Zarqa - despite its utter isolation - in 1996. The photographs on display were taken during his ten years of weekly visits to the village. The photographs, taken under a variety of situations and sometimes at the request of the villagers, attest to and assert the life and reality of Palestinians in Israel.
Meanwhile, the State of Israel has done all it can to make Palestinians - inside or outside its borders - vanish, so it should not surprise anyone that come Tuesday, they will absent themselves from a farce of casting a vote in a system that wants, advocates for and enables their disappearance.

Tonight, the Chelsea Power Show kicks off. Come 6.30pm, bigwigs and pre-eminent players from the worlds of business, banking, PR and politics will be queuing down the Embankment for the gala opening of the Royal Horticultural Society's centenary show.
Entering the Royal Hospital's gardens through Ambulance Gate, guests will be handed a glass of champagne — and the badinage and business card swapping will begin. If the attitude isn't quite "forget the flowers" (many in attendance would appreciate some ideas for their own generous grounds, after all), the event is really about the schmoozing that takes place beside the blooms.
"As you walk up Main Avenue, it's always thick with suits. You can almost smell the money," says our spy. "Every garden will have a table dispensing champagne. Once you've had a drink and been polite to your hosts, you can wander around networking. You bump into everybody."
"Everybody" is said to include more chief executives of FTSE 100 companies than any other event on the social calendar (Tesco's Philip Clarke and BT's Ian Livingston will be there). Even as corporate hospitality budgets have been squeezed, businesses have kept splashing out at Chelsea. It is such a hot ticket that some guests fly into London just to attend the gala.
Tickets start at £360 this year, but can be much more, as canapés are upgraded to a buffet or space in the restaurant. Not that many present will have coughed up themselves: they will be there as the guest of a company, which has probably forked out about £200,000 to entertain clients. Local businesses also receive a boost, as guests are taken to dine locally at places such as the Sloane Club.
"It's a tremendous opportunity to see clients," says a PR for one of the sponsors. "It's a very independent way to have an event, as everyone can go and do their own thing."
The sponsor list provides some clues as to those who will be showing their faces this evening. The main backer is M&G Investments, which is owned by insurance titan Prudential, so chief executive Tidjane Thiam is likely to be there holding court. Other sponsors include Lloyds Bank (yes, the taxpayer-backed bank has its own marquee), accountancy giants KPMG and PwC, fund managers Aberdeen Asset Management and Alliance Trust. Firms with deep pockets, then, and a long list of luminaries to entertain.
Sir Mervyn King, the departing Governor of the Bank of England, has attended with his wife in the past. Mark Carney, who takes up the post in July, is obviously the guest everyone would want to see — and his wife Diana is a keen gardener.
"If he turns up — and I doubt he will — he'll be the person everyone swarms around," says a regular attendee.
But there should be plenty of other big names. The kings of schmoozing — PR men such as Finsbury's Roland Rudd and Brunswick's Alan Parker — are likely to be there, and the evening is increasingly attracting a more international crowd too, with wealthy Chinese and Russians attending.
Last year, guests included the Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls, the former Prime Minister John Mayor, the ex-BP boss Lord Browne and the then director-general of the BBC Mark Thompson. There was a rare public appearance too from Stephen Hester, the chief executive of state-owned Royal Bank of Scotland, who opens his own gardens at his Oxfordshire estate Broughton Grange to the public.
A few financiers with reputations muddied by the financial crisis popped up too: Sir Tom McKillop, who was RBS chairman when the bank carried out its horrifically judged takeover of ABN Amro, and Eric Daniels, once Lloyds TSB's chief executive.
"Oh yes, you see plenty of City villains who've been deposed," says another mole in the marquee. "Some are chasing new jobs, of course."
So why is it such a prime networking opportunity? "It has the advantage of being in central London, so it's less hassle than trekking down to Glyndebourne or Goodwood," he adds. "Plus everyone's partner is there, so people are on their best behaviour."
Another selling point is the relaxed atmosphere, with the schmoozing being rather less overt than at other events.
The mole chips in: "The best thing about Chelsea is that you never get trapped. The nightmare of most parties is that you can't get away from a bore. But at the gala you can do your 30 seconds with them, then announce that you really must see the new astrantia or Patagonian orchid."
And, as the evening progresses, you can slip away from the unpopular guest into the night too, as by the time the gala closes at around nine, it's getting dark.
The only problem is the weather. As the sponsor's PR puts it: "It can get pretty nippy and it almost always pours."

Here's a quick analysis of two more of the day's finishes:
In the end, Duke made it the interesting, close game Wake Forest fans have come to know and love. Despite almost squandering a 17-point lead, Wake Forest won its 12th straight game in the series. The Demon Deacs, who were 3-9 a year ago, are now one win away from bowl eligibility, and equally if not more important, are still in the ACC race. They've got a road trip to North Carolina looming next weekend, but only two more games against Atlantic Division opponents remain: at Clemson and home against Maryland. Will the Deacs pull a stunning upset on the road against Clemson? Considering the 59 points the Tigers put up today on North Carolina's defense -- which was the best defensive front Clemson has seen -- it's unlikely. But the fact that Wake Forest has put itself in a position to make that game a meaningful one is impressive.
Virginia Tech's offense got off to a slow start and the Hokies trailed 7-6 at the half, but a spark from running back David Wilson got the Hokies back on track. Wilson's 42-yard touchdown run on the first possession of the third quarter gave the Hokies the momentum in the second half. Virginia Tech has since won three straight following its loss to Clemson, and the Hokies are in even better shape following Georgia Tech's impending loss to Miami. Still, back-to-back Thursday night games remain against Georgia Tech and North Carolina, but the Hokies helped distance themselves again with today's win.

Ranji Trophy: Saurashtra beat MP, enter knockout stage
Rajkot: Riding on a splendid bowling by debutant seamer Dharmendrasinh Jadeja, Saurashtra beat Madhya Pradesh by 227 runs on the fourth and final day of their Ranji Trophy Group A match and entered into knockout stage.
Playing his first Ranji Trophy, Jadeja scalped six wickets in Madhya Pradesh`s second innings giving away 51 runs off 26.4 overs, and was well supported by off spinner Kamlesh Makvana, who finished with three for 43.
After scoring 242 in the first innings, Saurashtra restricted MP to 135.
In the second essay, the hosts declared at 303 for four to set MP a target of 411, but the visitors were bowled out for 183.
Resuming at 89 for two, MP could add only 94 more runs before getting all out in 68.4 overs.
Jalaj Saxena (75) and Rameez Khan (31) were the only batsmen for Madhya Pradesh, who resisted Jadeja-Makvana duo.
Saxena and Khan added 85 runs for the third wicket and at that stage it looked as if MP would save the match but once Khan was bowled out by Jadeja, rest of the batsmen surrendered against the pace-spin duo.
The match was crucial for both the sides to enter into knockout rounds where MP needed only three points, while an outright win was required for the hosts.
With this win, Saurashtra earned six points and improved their position with 23 points.
Brief scores:
Saurashtra: 242 & 303 for four decl
Madhya Pradesh: 135 & 183 all out in 68.4 overs (Jalaj Saxena 75, Rameez Khan 31; Dharmendrasinh Jadeja 6/51, Kamlesh Makvana 3-43).

Backups step up
Alabama's reserves get valuable playing time against Western Carolina
Updated: November 18, 2012, 12:28 PM ETBy Alex Scarborough | TideNation
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- The rows of empty seats and abandoned crimson cushions were apropos of the matchup: No. 4 Alabama versus an unranked, one-win Western Carolina team. Not many fans wanted to make the trip to Bryant-Denny Stadium to watch the Crimson Tide pummel an overmatched, underwhelming opponent.
But like A-Day or a scrimmage, where the crowd is usually less than a sellout and gone midway through the third quarter, there's still something to see -- the team's future. In the moments ...

MISSISSAUGA, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 03/17/14 -- At the 86th Annual General Meeting and Fish & Wildlife Conference of the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters (OFAH), held March 13 -15, 2014 in Mississauga, the Sudbury Game and Fish Protective Association (SGFPA) was honoured. The club was awarded the Windsor Sportsmen's Club trophy in recognition of their success in raising funds through the OFAH Conservation Lottery.
The Windsor Sportsmen's Club trophy was created by that club to acknowledge the OFAH member club selling the second largest number of tickets for the lottery. SPGFPA sold an incredible 635 books of tickets for the 39th annual lottery, some of the proceeds of which helped to fund local conservation efforts, making them double winners.
"When we see and experience first-hand the many conservation projects that have benefitted from the efforts of OFAH member clubs, like the Sudbury Game and Fish Protective Association, it gives us a great sense of pride and accomplishment," said OFAH President Bill Blackwell.
Each year, OFAH member clubs across the province vie for the honour of being one of the top ticket sellers for the highly popular OFAH Conservation Lottery.
The OFAH also acknowledged the outstanding efforts of the Halton Sportsmen's Club which finished in third place, the National District Headquarters Fish and Game Club which finished fourth and the South Central Ontario Fish and Wildlife Association Inc. which took fifth place.
For a complete list of conservation award winners, visit www.ofah.org/conference/awards.
With over 100,000 members, subscribers and supporters, and 720 member clubs, the OFAH is the province's largest nonprofit, fish and wildlife conservation-based organization, and the VOICE of anglers and hunters. For more information, visit www.ofah.org.

Totally a big issue right now.

Are The Boston Red Sox Punting The 2012 Season?
A year ago the Boston Red Sox were often named as the World Series champions before a single game had even played. Acquiring one of the best free agents in Carl Crawford and trading for Adrian Gonzalez will do that for a team. However, as we look back on the 2011 season we can see that the Red Sox were a deeply flawed team, despite their 90-72 record. Pitching, especially starting pitching, was a huge weakness for the Red Sox. Several key players including Kevin Youkilis were very injury prone, and the team lost out on the final day to Tampa Bay.
Flash forward to 2012, and it looks like the Red Sox have taken several steps backwards. With Lackey & Dice-K not expected to pitch until the latter part of the season, Boston needed to upgrade their rotation. Clay Buchholz should be healthy enough to pitch, and it's expected that Daniel Bard will take one of the spots at the back of the rotation. While he's been dominant as a reliever, he's never had success at any level in professional baseball as a starter. In fact, his struggles in the minors as a starter, with ERA ranging between 6.42 and 10.12, is what prompted Boston to make him a reliever in the first place. So it's not expected that the conversion to the rotation will go as smoothly as it did for pitchers like CJ Wilson or Alexi Ogando.
Interestingly enough Bard's 1.8 WAR ranked fourth amongBoston's pitchers last season, which is not a positive sign. Boston's lack of pitching depth was exposed, and the set up man was effectively their fourth most valuable pitcher. If he throws 150 or so innings, he'll probably be worth about 2 WAR. Bard will likely be on an innings limit, and it's not expected that whoever throws the additional 50 innings will be better than replacement level.
Unless the Red Sox sign a player like Roy Oswalt or Edwin Jackson they will be relying on one of the players they signed to a minor league contract to fill out the rotation. Some of these options include Carlos Silva, Aaron Cook and Vincente Padilla. While these pitchers have had success in the past, it is unlikely that they will provide much value in the back of the rotation. At this point Edwin Jackson remains one of the biggest bargains in baseball, and if the Sox are fortunate enough to sign him he might turn out to be one of their best free agent signings in years. Jackson might be the perfect fit for the Red Sox, as he's healthy, durable, and consistent. He's one of the few difference makers available in free agency.
The bullpen has also taken a step back as Jonathan Papelbon left via free agency and Daniel Bard was moved to the rotation. Boston did trade for Andrew Bailey to be their new closer, but given his injury history and the fact that he's moving from one of the best pitchers parks to Fenway, it's unlikely he'll come close to reproducing the 3 WAR earned by Papelbon. It's also interesting to note that Papelbon's 3 WAR ranked 3rd among Boston pitchers, with only Josh Beckett and Jon Lester being more valuable. Even if Clay Buchholz pitched a full season, he was only on pace to earn 2.6 WAR and still wouldn't be considered as valuable as Papelbon.
Mark Melancon was another quality reliever acquired by the Red Sox, but he's a slight downgrade when compared to former set up man Daniel Bard.
Making matters worse is that Josh Beckett isn't a durable option at the top of the rotation. He's coming off a fantastic season which saw him post a 2.89 ERA while accumulating 4.3 WAR. However he did miss time, and is very inconsistent as he often posts a good year followed by a bad year. The Red Sox can't afford to have the injury prone or ineffective Beckett show up, as their rotation depth is already compromised. If Beckett misses any significant time the Red Sox will likely miss out on another postseason.
If these were the only problems Boston was facing, they would still have a realistic chance at making the playoffs. However, their lineup has some significant issues as well, and given the lack of pitching depth the Red Sox could be looking at one of their worst seasons in quite some time.
The addition of Adrian Gonzalez was extremely helpful to the offence, giving the Red Sox another elite bat at first base. However, it forced Kevin Youkilis to play third base, and the physical demands of the position cost him some time due to injury. As one of the Sox best hitters, Youkilis needs to remain healthy and it's unlikely this will happen if he's playing third. Youkilis hasn't played in over 120 games since 2009, so there's a very real chance the Red Sox will be forced to use Mike Aviles and Nick Punto in the lineup at the same time.
Speaking of Aviles and Punto, that's another issue altogether for the Red Sox. While the general consensus was that the Red Sox have struggled at shortstop since 2004, Marco Scutaro actually was providing quality production at the position. That is, until Boston salary dumped Scutaro and left themselves with two veterans who shouldn't be counted on to start for a team with playoff aspirations. Aviles can't hit, and he's not good enough to play defence at shortstop. Meanwhile Punto can field, but he shouldn't be expected to hit even in Fenway. So unless the Red Sox find a way to upgrade their shortstop they'll be looking at another year with below average production.
The outfield isn't looking that good either. Carl Crawford is expected to miss time due to his wrist surgery. Wrist injuries often sap players of their power for some time, so even when Crawford comes back he shouldn't be expected to produce like he normally would. All things considered, the Red Sox would be happy with anything that was better than last year. Meanwhile Ryan Kalish is also injured, so Cody Ross will fill in until he gets back. Ross is great against lefties, but he'll likely be overexposed against right handed pitching. Jacoby Ellsbury isn't likely to produce like he did in 2011, so the Red Sox offence could take a step back even if everybody else remains healthy.
It's hard to predict exactly how good these Red Sox are. At their best they could win 90 or so games. But it's unlikely that everybody stays healthy and productive, and if some of their key guys go down again they could be looking at a fourth place finish. It might sound crazy to suggest this, but the Red Sox as currently constructed are a deeply flawed team. They are stronger than Toronto at their best, but if Youkilis and Beckett miss significant time again the Red Sox might not be strong enough to hold off the Blue Jays.
While Toronto hasn't made any major moves this offseason, their midseason acquisitions of Kelly Johnson and Colby Rasmus combined with the infusion of prospects such as Henderson Alvarez and Brett Lawrie and a rebuilt bullpen means that they'll be a fairly good team next year. Red Sox Nation is praying for the collective health of Beckett, Lester and Buchholz, because another year of injuries and ineffectiveness out of the rotation will sink the Red Sox season.
