Oakland Athletics 2016 News and Updates
2015 Season
9/24/15 - The Oakland Athletics have had a rough year and the bad luck has continued throughout the month of September. Currently they are playing through a five-game losing streak and are doing all they can to get out of the huge slump. On September 24, the Athletics finished off their three-game series against the Texas Rangers and unfortunately gave the Rangers a clean sweep. The Rangers started the game off strong, bringing in two runs in the first inning. All hope wasn't lost for the Athletics as they scored quickly in the bottom of the second. It was during the sixth inning when the Rangers continued to bring in runs that the Athletics couldn't answer to. See if they can add a victory when they take on the Giants this weekend. Tickets are still available to purchase so don't miss your chance.

9/17/15 - The Oakland Athletics have a chance to end the four game series with the White Sox with a draw. The White Sox may have won the first game, but it took them 14 innings to do so. The White Sox were ahead early, but the Athletics rallied in the ninth inning to even the score. The rally included a two-run single by Sam Fuld, a catcher's interference call against Tyler Flowers on a grounder, a wild pitch, and a walk that forced home a run. The next night, the Athletics left no doubt as to who would win. They opened the game with five runs and then had a 10 run fourth inning. After finishing the series against the White Sox, they head to Houston. You can still get tickets for just $2.
9/10/15 - The Oakland Athletics are officially done with their series of home games. Things looked bright when they won the opening matchup with the Los Angeles Angels, but they quickly fell into a losing streak. Five games later, the Athletics picked themselves back up and managed to end on a high note before hitting the road. They may have lost the final game against the Houston Astros, but they won the two right before it, one with 10 tens and the other seeing the Athletics shut their opponents out. Hopefully these two strong victories will give them the momentum they need to hold their own while traveling. First up, the Athletics head to Texas to play the Rangers. If you cannot wait to see them in action again, the Athletics will be returning on September 22nd.
9/4/15 - The Oakland Athletics ended the month of August with a bang. They won their last three games and were hoping that would carry over into September. Unfortunately, the Los Angeles Angels had other plans for the Athletics record. On September 2, the Athletics hit the field against the Angels for their final game of the three-game series. Both teams started the game off with some fire. The Athletics brought in three runs and the Angels answered that with four runs. However, the Angels continued their offensive roll and scored an additional two runs in the second inning. The Athletics were unable to catch up and lost the game 4-9. See what they can do when they face off against the Mariners on September 4. Tickets are still available to purchase.
8/26/15 - The Oakland Athletics lost two of three in a series against the Mariners. After winning the opening game, the A's lost a close game the next night. They got ahead early with a run in the first and four runs in the second. However, the Mariners rallied, with two three run innings back to back. The A's were unable to regain control and had to take the loss. The next night, the Mariners led from the beginning after a four run first inning. This week, it was announced that Mike Gallego, the infield and third base coach, was relieved of his duties, and Ron Washington will take over as third base coach for the rest of the season. The A's next play the Diamondbacks in Arizona, and fans still have a chance to get tickets for as little as $5.
8/20/15 - It may not be a playoff season for the green and gold, but the Oakland Athletics are giving their loyal fans something to cheer about this week. An influx of Dodgers fans stormed O.co Coliseum this week for the Athletics' interleague set, and things looked bleak on the first night. With Clayton Kershaw on the mound, L.A. broke open a 1-1 game in the eighth with a three-run bomb off reliever Fernando Rodriguez. Oakland rallied with three runs in the bottom of the frame, and would eventually win it in the 10th on a Billy Butler walk-off double. The A's swept the series Wednesday afternoon behind a brilliant outing from Jesse Chavez, sending Bay Area fans home happy once again. Oakland hits the road to take on the Mariners starting Monday, and you can get in to Safeco Field from $11!
8/13/15 - The Oakland Athletics managed to end their series of home games on a high note. They won all three of their final matchups against the Houston Astros. During August 9th's game, the Athletics were behind going into the ninth inning, but managed to score two runs to bring the final score to 4-5. They have hit the road, but they were not so lucky in their first away game. Even though they gained an early lead, the Athletics fell short of the Toronto Blue Jays on the 11th with a final score of 2-4. They have two away sets before returning to Oakland on August 18th with a quick two-game set against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Tickets for their homecoming match start as low as $31.
8/5/15 - After losing the first two in a four game series against the Indians, the Oakland Athletics won the second two to tie the series. In game three, Aaron Brooks made his first appearance on the mound after having been acquired earlier that week and allowed just one run. The next night was a close game that went ten innings before Mark Canha's RBI double led to the A's victory. A budding winning streak ended after losing the first game of three against the Orioles. The A's came back the next night to win in a 5-0 shut out that included a three-run homer from Marcus Semien. The two teams play again on the 5th, and then the Athletics host the Astros for four games starting on the 6th. You can still get your tickets, with prices as low as $34.
7/30/15 - The Oakland Athletics are hitting the road again, after completing their three-game series against the Blue Jays on Thursday. The Athletics were able to pull off a very close win against the Blue Jays, with a 4-3 scoreboard on July 22. It all came down to the tenth inning and the umpires reviewing the winning call for the Athletics. Ike Davis, Athletics player, was able to beat out an infield single when the Athletics were facing their third out of the inning. The review determined that Davis did in fact beat the throw by shortstop, Jose Reyes, making him safe and winning the game for the Athletics. See what the Athletics can do on the road against the San Francisco Giants this weekend. Tickets are still up for grabs starting at $61 a piece.
7/23/15 - The Oakland Athletics are hitting the road again, after completing their three-game series against the Blue Jays on Thursday.

It all came down to the tenth inning and the umpires reviewing the winning call for the Athletics.

7/15/15 - After taking three consecutive losses, the Oakland Athletics managed to end their series of away games on a high note. They beat the Cleveland Indians on July 11th and 12th and even managed to shut them out in the latter game. The Athletics can now relax a little as they have two back to back sets on their own field, against the Minnesota Twins and the Toronto Blue Jays. If you want to see them live, be sure to get your tickets before July 24th when they hit the road again. While the Athletics are at the bottom of the AL Western Division, the teams are very compressed. In fact, if they could just earn two more wins, they would be in the number three position. Hopefully they will able to continue to play well in the coming weeks.
7/9/15 - The Oakland Athletics ended their series of home games on a slightly sour note. They were able to win half the matchups in the set with the Seattle Mariners, but the Athletics lost the final game by a single point despite holding an early lead. In the end, the final score was 2-1. On the bright side, Oakland has kicked off their away games with a bang. They were able to beat out the New York Yankees, taking a tie-breaking win in the tenth inning, which was the result of a last minute comeback. The Athletics will be returning to Oakland on July 17th. Tickets are already available for their homecoming game. You can secure your place in the stands for as little as $9.
7/2/15 - The Oakland Athletics simply could not get hold their own against the Kansas City Royals, but they are faring better more recently. After failing to beat the Royals once, the Athletics won two of three matches against the Colorado Rockies. They even managed to score seven runs in their opening game. Now, Oakland has begun their last set before hitting the road again. So far, they are performing admirably against the Seattle Mariners. With two runs in the first inning, the Athletics were set up for an incredible game. They did not disappoint as they completely shut out the Mariners. If you want to catch them live before they leave town, you should get your tickets now. Tickets for all their games are still available starting at $15.
6/25/15 - After breaking their four game winning streak with two losses, the Oakland Athletics have started another winning streak. They won the three game series against the Angels 2-1, and they have started out their three game series against the Rangers with an 8-6 win. The decisive innings were the sixth and seventh. Ike Davis, Josh Phegley, and Marcus Semien all hit doubles, which brought in a total of four runs in the sixth. Then, Ben Zobrist had a two-run homer in the seventh that ended up deciding the game for the Athletics. Phegley also had a homer during the fifth inning, bringing his RBI tally to three for the game. You can still get tickets for the remaining games in the series on the 24 and 25 and the rest of the season, with prices starting at $10.
6/18/15 - In Wednesday's game against the Padres, the Oakland Athletics came out strong with four runs in the first inning. Even though they had a four-point lead after six innings, they scored another four runs in the seventh, then topped off their game with seven more in the eighth, giving them a 16-2 win. It was their fourth straight win, but the A's are still in 5th place in the AL West. The A's host the Los Angeles Angels over the weekend, and you'll want to catch the games. Sunday's (6/21) tickets start at $28. Don't wait to get your tickets to next weekend's games against the Kansas City Royals starting on Friday (6/26). Get great seats now with prices beginning at $24 for the evening game.
6/12/15 - It's been an up-and-down few weeks for the Oakland Athletics, who followed a four-game win streak and a series sweep of the Tigers with four straight losses including a sweep at the hands of the Red Sox. They took two out of three from the red-hot Rangers at home most recently, earning their first walk-off win of the season 5-4 on Wednesday night and following up with a 7-0 shutout behind a magnificent performance from leftie Scott Kazmir. The A's had been nursing a one-run lead throughout Thursday afternoon's contest before exploding in the bottom of eighth, adding on six insurance runs to put the game out of reach. Next up for the Green and Gold is a three-game set versus their SoCal rivals, the L.A. Angels. Tickets for Angel Stadium are on sale now starting at $15!
6/4/15 - The Oakland Athletics seem to be gaining momentum in their dismal season with a three-game winning streak. They're fifth in the AL West, with a 22-33 record, which puts them in last place in the AL. Sonny Gray gave the Tigers their second loss in a 6-1 game on Wednesday. Gray allowed two singles, one walk, and struckout seven. The Athletics host the Texas Rangers in a three-game series beginning on Tuesday (6/9), and you'll want to catch them at the home stadium before they go back out on the road. Tickets for Wednesday's (6/7) evening game start at $11. Come out and cheer for the home team. Give them your support to help them move up the leaderboard. Enjoy some baseball with your family and friends.
5/28/15 - The Oakland Athletics picked up a win (0-4) in the first game of their series against the Detroit Tigers, but they couldn't hold on to the next two. In Tuesday's game, the Tigers came out with a run in the first inning, then both teams kept each other from earning any further runs. Wednesday's game ended at 3-2, with the Athletics making a strong comeback in the final innings, but they couldn't pick up that extra run to win the game. This weekend, the New York Yankees are in town through Sunday (5/31). Tickets are going fast for Sunday's game, because everyone wants to enjoy some baseball on their day off, but you can still get tickets starting at $18. It's a great way to unwind and relax.
5/22/15 - After a four game losing streak, the Oakland Athletics were able to win in the set opener against the Houston Astros. After Houston took an early lead, the Athletics secured the lead in the sixth inning and held it to the end. Unfortunately, Oakland was not able to follow up on this victory and lost both the remaining matches against the Astros. Next, they will be taking on the Tampa Bay Rays starting May 21st, and then they will return to Oakland on May 25th to play the Detroit Tigers. The Athletics are not in good shape, losing six times in this last week, but hopefully they will be able to perform better once they get on their own field again. Tickets for their homecoming start at $32.
5/14/15 - After a six-game losing streak, the Oakland Athletics picked up a win against the Boston Red Sox in Tuesday's game. The A's came out strong in the first inning with three runs, and never let up. Stephen Vogt, Josh Reddick, and Marcus Semien hit home runs, while Drew Pomeranz kept the Red Sox to two runs. The crowd went wild when the Athletics won 2-9. This weekend the A's host the Chicago White Sox before taking their game out on the road. Tickets are still available for Saturday's (5/16) game, starting at $38. Sunday's (5/17) prices start at $29. You'll want to come out and cheer for your local team to get back on top of the leaderboard in AL West. With a 13-23 record, they sit in fifth place.
5/6/15 - The Oakland Athletics have been playing very consistently, but they are still losing as often as they are winning. Strangely, they scored exactly seven points in four consecutive games this week, but only won two of those games. The Athletics struggled early this season, but it seems like they are more or less starting to turn it around, winning three of their last five games. Despite this, Oakland still maintains a win/loss of 12-16. They have a long way to go to be a serious force in the league. So far, the Athletics have won 50% of their matchups in the four-game-long series against the Minnesota Twins. After this set, they will play the Seattle Mariners, then the Athletics will finally return to Oakland to play the Boston Red Sox on May 11th.
4/28/15 - After playing eight innings, walking one batter and striking out six, starting pitcher Sonny Gray propelled the Oakland Athletics to a great win over the Angels on Tuesday night. The match was also won thanks to efforts from batters like Brett Lawrie, who exploded a three-run homer in the first inning to give the Athletics an immediate lead that lasted the entire game. Despite an overall 9-12 record that doesn't seem all that impressive, Oakland seems to be playing very well at the moment, and are definitely a team to watch. Their upcoming schedule includes another two games against LA tonight and tomorrow (Wednesday and Thursday) before taking on the Rangers in Texas this weekend. Your favorite Bay Area team will be back in town starting May 11 when they take on the Red Sox.
4/23/15 - The Oakland Athletics struggled in Tuesday's game against the Angels. Los Angeles came out with four runs in the second, then added six more in the sixth. With another four in the seventh, the Angels stole the game. The final score of 1-14 went up as a loss with three errors by the A's. Wednesday's game offered redemption for the Athletics with a final score of 9-2. The Athletics come back home to O.CO Coliseum on Friday (4/24) for a three-game series against the Houston Astros. Tickets for Friday evening's game start at $24, and there's plenty of great seats available. Following Sunday's game, the Athletics get Monday off before they host the Los Angeles Angels in a three-game series. Don't miss your chance to cheer for the home team.
4/17/15 - The Oakland Athletics filed papers in the United States Supreme Court on Wednesday to move the A's to San Jose. Although there's a less-than one-percent chance that the high court could hear the case, and even if the A's prevail, it doesn't mean a move is imminent. However, the case is important to the baseball anti-trust laws. The A's are first in the AL West, with a 5-5 record. They're out on the road this week, with weekend games in Kansas City, then weekday games against the Los Angeles Angels. They come back to Oakland on Friday (4/24), for games against the Houston Astros. Get your tickets starting at $19, and come down to the ballpark for some great baseball. Don't miss your home team!
4/9/15 - When the pitching is good for the Oakland Athletics – we're looking at you, Sonny Gray and Scott Kazmir – it's VERY good; Sonny Gray took a no-hitter into the eighth inning of his opening start, while Kazmir whiffed 10 in his shutout effort. When it's not good? Well, Ask Texas, who gained a split with the A's in their opening series with a 10-0 walloping of the A's.
4/2/15 - It's a tough break for the Oakland Athletics, in more ways than one. Outfielder and leadoff hitter Coco Crism will be lost to the A's for at least two months after having surgery on his right elbow. The procedure is to remove a bone chip and spurs from the joint; the typical recovery time is six to eight weeks, but Crisp hopes to be back sooner.
3/26/15 - No surprise here: Lefthander Sonny Gray will take the mound for the Oakland Athletics in their Opening Day game against division rival Texas. Bob Melvin made the announcement earlier this week, giving Gray the nod for the second straight season; last year, Gray threw six shutout innings, just the second Oakland pitcher in history to not allow any runs on Opening Day.
3/18/15 - Up and coming pitcher Kendall Graveman has been gaining serious momentum as the Oakland Athletics continue their pre-season Spring Training in Arizona. Not only is the young pitcher in contention for the A's regular rotation, he may even secure the number three slot. Graveman pitched almost five scoreless innings in his most recent matchup, which caught manager Bob Melvin's attention. He's also boasting a 0.93 ERA and has started in three games this spring while showing his skills for getting grounder balls. Come see the pitching sensation for yourself as the Oakland A's head deeper into Spring Training. The will face a tough matchup in their state rivals, the Los Angeles Dodgers, this Friday March 20 at Hohokam Stadium in Mesa, AZ. Don't miss it!
3/11/15 - If you're a college football fan of the Michigan Wolverines, you'd be forgiven if you did a double-take last weekend. Newly signed head coach Jim Harbaugh spent some time in an Oakland Athletics uniform this past Saturday, even acting as the team's first base coach for a few innings; Harbaugh and A's manager Bob Melvin are longtime friends, and while with the San Francisco 49ers, Harbaugh invited Melvin to spend a game on the Niners' sideline.
3/5/15 - The original "Moneyball" team is still at it, creating success on a yearly basis on a mid-level budget. The Oakland Athletics hope that 2015 sees them return to the top of the American League's West Division after a second-place finish in 2014 and a one-game appearance in the postseason. The A's will be without third baseman Josh Donaldson, who was traded during the offseason but expect to fill his offense in other ways.
2/13/15 - Oakland Athletics fans should get excited because the 2015 MLB season starts with a bang for the Oakland team. Starting on April 6th, the Athletics will start the season with seven consecutive home games, one on each day of the week. The home opener, and first game of 2015, is against the Texas Rangers. You have plenty of opportunities to see your team in action and you won't have to break the bank to do it either. The first game's tickets start at $34, and the subsequent games are all around $20. This great series of home games comes at a price, however. The Athletics will not return to Oakland until the 24th, nearly two weeks later. Be sure to catch them before they leave town.
2014 Season
9/29/14 - Despite swooning after a fast start out of the gate, the Oakland Athletics are back in the postseason, thanks to young lefthander Sonny Gray, who helped the A's to a 4-0 shutout on the final day of the season, earning the team a trip to Kansas City to take on the surprising Royals, who are making their first appearance in the playoffs in 29 years. Jon Lester, acquired from Boston at the trade deadline, is set to take the ball as the A's pitcher in the Wild Card game, which will determine who advances to play the Los Angeles Angels, the team with the best record in baseball in 2014.
9/25/14 - Despite a second-half swoon, the Oakland Athletics are on the brink of their third playoff berth in as many seasons, and A's fans have to be hoping that this year's playoff performance isn't similar to so many others the team has had in the 21st Century; in other words, eliminated in the Division Series. It's looking entirely probable that the A's will be taking on a Kansas City squad who's making their first trip to the postseason in many years; going into the weekend's final series, the A's are a game back of the Royals for home field in that game, but that could easily change, though both teams are on the road facing weak opposition.
9/18/14 - While their probability of making the postseason is still over 90% (currently projected at 91.3%, according to ESPN.com's "Hunt for October" page), it won't take much to send the Oakland Athletics crashing out of the Major League Baseball postseason completely, either. The A's are in a virtual tie with Kansas City for the better of the two wild-card spots, and just a game and a half ahead of Seattle, who is also fighting for that postseason berth. The A's did themselves no favors by losing three straight to the cellar-dwelling Texas Rangers; they now have six more home games left, against Philadelphia and the newly-crowned AL West champ Los Angeles Angels, before finishing up on the road in Arlington, Texas, with the Rangers.
9/11/14 - Whither the Oakland Athletics? At one point in the season, the A's were a stone cold, lead pipe lock to make the postseason; but as the week ends, the team finds itself in a three-way horse race for two American League wild-card slots. The Athletics are just a game and a half in front of a hungry but struggling Seattle squad in their own West Division; and just percentage points better, record-wise, than Detroit, who moved to match the A's pitcher acquisition for pitcher acquisition at the trade deadline. Of the two biggest names the A's picked up, Jeff Samardzija has struggled to adjust to his new league, with a 4-5 record since coming over from Chicago; but Jon Lester has pulled even with teammate Scott Kazmir for the team lead in wins, with 14. Sonny Gray is right behind the two, with 13 wins. This weekend, the A's travel to Seattle in a key stretch-drive matchup with the Mariners.
9/4/14 - The still-faltering Oakland Athletics, recipients of some good luck the last couple of seasons in making the playoffs, could be in danger of having luck go against them this season – a season in which they had threatened to run away with the American League West, but have been passed by the Los Angeles Angels, and are now just 3 ½ games ahead of third-place Seattle. The A's have lost six of their last seven games – a four-game sweep by the Angels to finish August, but after starting September with a win against the Mariners, two more losses have followed. The A's have seven non-division contests remaining, including a four-game ser with the Chicago White Sox, and a visit from Philadelphia of the National League.
8/28/14 - With the calendar set to turn into September, both Western Divisions in Major League Baseball appear to be turning into classic NorCal (San Francisco, Oakland) vs. SoCal (Dodgers, Angels) battles – though for the Oakland Athletics, it's not a battle they expected to be in a month ago. The A's are 12-13 for the month of August, heading into the final weekend, with their longest win streak of the month being just three games. Still, the A's maintain the best run differential in the bigs, having scored 165 more runs than they've allowed through this point of the season. The A's will face almost exclusively AL West opposition coming down the stretch, with just three games against Philadelphia from the National League allowing a bit of a break in the action. 8/21/14 - After spending most of 2014 as the standard-bearers of the Major League Baseball season – even going so far as improving their starting pitching with a pair of blockbuster trades – the Oakland Athletics find themselves looking up at the Los Angeles Angels, who have overtaken the A's in the American League West race, and are now a game and a half behind the Halos. What does this mean? It means that two teams once thought to be solidly in the driver's seat in their respective divisions, two teams who made key moves to bolster starting pitching at the July trade deadline – namely, the A's and Detroit – are now the AL's top wild card squads as the month of September approaches. Yep, baseball IS a funny game.
8/15/14 - After winning five of six, the Oakland Athletics have run into a streak of results that are a mirror image – losing five of their last six games, including three of four to the hot team of the moment, Kansas City. The lone win against the Royals, who now lead the AL Central, was an 11-3 pasting to give trade-deadline acquisition Jon Lester his third win in a row as a member of the A's. The Royals notched wins over the A's other top starters – Sonny Gray, Scott Kazmir, and Jeff Samardzija. Still, Oakland remains the squad with the best record in baseball, at 73-49, and a game and a half ahead of the second-place Los Angeles Angels, with seven games coming up against the Halos in the second half of the month which could prove decisive.
7/31/14 - The Oakland Athletics have made yet another big move for pitching, pulling the trigger on a trade deadline acquisition which sends cannon-armed, power-hitting (two time All-Star Home Run Derby winner) Cuban outfielder Yoenis Cespedes and a compensatory draft pick to Boston for Jon Lester and Jonny Gomes. Lester, 10-7 with a strong 2.52 ERA for the moribund Red Sox, joins a loaded Athletics rotation which already included a resurgent Scott Kazmir and an emerging star in Sonny Gray, plus picking up Jeff Samardzija from the Cubs in June. With the A's giving up Cespedes, the Red Sox now have a trio of outfielders (including Shane Victorino and Jackie Bradley Jr.) who are known for their defensive prowess, while Cespedes' power will make him a compliment to sluggers David Ortiz and Mike Napoli...
7/24/14 - The Oakland Athletics remain the best team in baseball…but if they're not careful, they could find themselves in a real pennant race soon, with the Los Angeles Angels. The A's are 63-38, the best record in the bigs, but the Angels have quietly snuck up and sit just 2 ½ games back with the second best record in baseball. Still, the A's are getting some of the best, most consistent pitching in all of Major League Baseball, and new acquisition Jeff Samardzija has fit right in; the former Cubs ace has started four games for the A's, recording two wins against one loss, with 20 strikeouts in 30 innings pitched and a 2.70 ERA. Scott Kazmir and Sonny Gray have identical 11-3 win-loss records, while Kazmir is two whiffs behind Gray, 116 to 114. In another mark of consistency, third starter Jesse Chavez also has 114 K's.
7/9/14 - The All-Star Game, let alone the trade deadline, has yet to arrive, and the Oakland Athletics, widely considered the top team in Major League Baseball this season, made a huge move to improve what was already a strong point. The A's acquired Jeff Samardzija and Jason Hammel from the Chicago Cubs last week; both hurlers were expected to be trade-deadline deals, but no one expected this deal. Samardzija had been named to the National League All-Star squad before the deal had been made, but it is without a doubt that the former Notre Dame wide receiver is happer to be pitching for a pennant contender this year. In fact, in his A's debut, Samardzija allowed just one run and five hits in seven innings against Toronto.
6/26/14 - With the All-Star break coming up, talk is turning to the various activities which now come along with the nid-season All-Star Game – especially the fan favorite Home Run Derby. The Oakland Athletics' outfielder Yoenis Cespedes, who made quite a bit of noise a few weeks ago with his arm, made headlines with his bat last year at the Derby, launching 32 bombs (third highest total in Derby history) to win it last year. Talk is swirling this year about a possible showdown of Cuban exiles in Cespedes and the Los Angeles Dodgers' Yasiel Puig in this year's power show. Last year Cespedes seemed to imply that he could beat the Dodgers' young star, saying through an interpreter, "This is not the kind of competition he would excel at." It remains up to this year's Derby captains, Jose Bautista (AL) and Troy Tulowitzki (NL) to make their selections if it happens.
6/23/14 - Not everything has come up roses for the best team in baseball, the Oakland Athletics, this season. Case in point: pitcher Drew Pomeranz, who broke his glove (right) hand as a result of punching a chair in the A's clubhouse after a 14-8 loss to the Texas Rangers. The lefthanded Pomeranz was placed on the 15-day disabled list because of the injury. Afterwards, he told reporters, "I just let my emotions take over me, and I did something stupid." For Pomeranz, he said it was the first time he had ever broken a bone, but he tried to put an optimistic spin on the situation, saying, "Hopefully, I'll be back as soon as possible." The A's called up Evan Scribner, a righthanded reliever, from the club's Triple A affiliate in Sacramento.
6/16/14 - Attention, Major League Baseball: he did it not once, but twice. Oakland Athletics left fielder Yoenis Cespedes unleashed a pair of guided-missile throws from the deep left-field corner, on consecutive nights against the Los Angeles Angels, sending the baseball world into a chattering tizzy. The first throw, the more impressive of the two, came after Cespedes had misplayed a fly ball off the bat of the Angels' Mike Trout; the ball hit off Cespedes' glove and into foul territory, where he retrieved it and on the fly threw out Howie Kendrick, who had rounded third base BEFORE Cespedes let fly. The next night, Cespedes had to track down a ball that caromed off the wall in the left field corner back towards center, then fired to third base to throw out Albert Pujols trying for a triple.
6/4/14 - After being swept by Toronto in late May, the Oakland Athletics turned up the intensity a couple notches, and have won seven of their last nine, including a split with Central Division leading Detroit; and a sweep of the second-place Los Angeles Angels, part of a five game string that has also seen the A's take the first two of a three game set from the once-feared New York Yankees. A big test will come on Junr 5, when Oakland faces Yankees starter Masahiro Tanaka, who reeled off six straight wins before suffering his first regular season loss since he was in Nippon Professional Baseball, the Japanese major league. Though two of them are listed as day to day, the troika of Josh Donaldson, Brandon Moss, and Yoenis Cespedes has turned into quite a Murderer's Row in the middle of the A's lineup; all three hitters are in double figures in homers, and both Donaldson and Moss have OPS figures approaching 1.000.
5/29/14 - The Oakland Athletics have risen to the top of ESPN's weekly Power Rankings, and it's clear why – team hitting, and team pitching. The A's are tied with Toronto for the best record in the American League (and second best in all of Major League Baseball) at 32-22; offensively, they're third in MLB in runs scored, fourth in homers, and second in on-base percentage, while at the top of the league in ERA, fewest runs allowed, and batting average against (a minuscule 219), and tied for fourth in shutouts (with Toronto and Miami). Individually, Josh Donaldson and Brandon Moss are both in the AL's top ten in homers; Donaldson also has the A's top batting average at .276, with Moss not far behind at .271.
5/23/14 - Here's a couple of reasons why the Oakland Athletics are atop the American League West Division: As a team, the A's are second in Major League Baseball in runs scored (241, behind Colorado's 255), and second also in team slugging percentage (.413, also behind Colorado at .488). Josh Donaldson is second in the American League in runs scored, with 39; further down the list are Brandon Moss with 25 (including a solo shot on May 21 that turned out to be the A's only hit of the game, a 3-2 win over Tampa Bay), Jed Lowrie and Yoenis Cespedes. Moss has the A's top individual slugging percentage at .576, fourth in the AL; Donaldson (.508) and Cespedes (.478, tied with Alexei Ramirez of the Chicago White Sox) are also in the AL's top 20 in slugging.
5/5/14 - The Oakland Athletics are on fire with a 19-12 record, for first place in their division and just half a game behind the Detroit Tigers for the top spot in the American League. The A's annihilated the Rangers in all three matches last week and avoided a sweep of their own with Sunday's victory over the Boston Red Sox. Today, Oakland returns home from their long road trip, pitted against the Seattle Mariners and Washington Nationals. Oakland Athletics tickets are cheapest when they play the Mariners; get-in for $14 on 5/6 and $16 on 5/7. Pay a minimum of $21 to see the A's take on the Nationals at O.CO Coliseum on 5/9.
4/29/14 - The Oakland Athletics still hold first place in the AL West, but they've loosened their grip this past week. The A's were swept by the Rangers and split their series with the Astros in their last meeting. Their current series with Texas is crucial, as the Rangers (15-11) are just one game behind Oakland (16-10) for top spot in the division. Oakland Athletics tickets are cheapest when at Texas this week: get-in for $2 on 4/29 and 4/30. Prices jump up to a $19 minimum when they travel to Boston to play the Red Sox on Friday (5/2).
4/21/14 - The Oakland Athletics are at the top of their division, the top of their conference, and they are just one game behind the Brewers for top record in the majors. The A's have won three in a row (eight of their last ten), and they're likely to extend that drive into this week when they take on the struggling Texas Rangers and the Houston Astros. Score inexpensive Oakland Athletics tickets for their final matchup with the Rangers ($17 on 4/23), and even cheaper tickets for their first game against the Astros ($8 on 4/24).
4/15/14- The Oakland Athletics are one of the hottest teams in the league, going 8-4 after two weeks of play, taking first place in the AL West. Oakland is pitted against the Los Angeles Angels to finish off their road trip, and will return home to host the Houston Astros on Friday. With these two upcoming opponents, the Athletics have a shot at catching up to the Brewers for hold of the majors' early season supremacy. Oakland Athletics tickets are very affordable despite their electric start: pay just $5 to see them take on the Angels in Anaheim (4/16), or $18 for Field Level seats this Sunday at O. CO Coliseum.
4/8/14 - Two of the Oakland A's games were postponed due to rain, but the squad has managed a solid 4-3 record after a week of baseball. After losing their opening series to Cleveland, the A's took two games over Seattle and, with a resounding 8-3 victory in yesterday's game, they're on track to winning the series over Minnesota. The A's are at the start of a long road trip, where they'll play Minnesota, Seattle and Anaheim in enemy territory. The cheapest Oakland Athletics tickets are on 4/9 & 4/10 for just $1 against the Twins, and prices jump up to $15 on 4/12 & 4/13 against the Mariners. Coco Crisp is currently out of the lineup due to wrist inflammation, but upon receiving a cortisone shot yesterday, he is projected to return Wednesday or Thursday. Additionally, Ryan Cook (who missed the first week and all of spring) is back in the bullpen, having recovered from shoulder inflammation.
4/1/14 - The Oakland Athletics were shutdown in their attempt at an Opening Day victory, when the Cleveland Indians defeated them 2-0. The game was quiet until the ninth inning when Jim Johnson, in his A's debut, gave up two ninth inning runs to the Tribe. See if the A's can turn things around and win-out their first series of the year: tickets for tomorrow's game start at $12 and drop to $10 on Wednesday. Lucky Oakland fans get their team at home for their next series against the Seattle Mariners, beginning this Friday (get-in for $18).
3/25/14 - The Oakland A's may be out of Arizona soon, but that doesn't mean you can't catch awesome exhibition games when they come back to California! Oakland will finish out Cactus League play this Wednesday against the Angels (get-in for $38) and they'll be headed home to take on other Cali rivals, the San Francisco Giants, in a preseason series. Get super cheap Oakland A's tickets this Thursday (get in for $1) and Friday (get-in for $9) at AT&T Park, or score tickets at O.CO Coliseum when the A's host the Giants for the final exhibition showdown of the year (get-in for $24 on Saturday). If you want to wait until regular season kicks off, grab tickets to Oakland's Opening Day game against the Cleveland Indians this Monday: tickets are as low as $28 in Plaza Reserve. Following the injuries to Jarrod Parker and AJ Griffin, expect to see Sonny Gray on the mound for Monday's opener.
3/18/14 - Some bad news came for the Oakland Athletics, who after running medical exams on two of their pitchers, found that AJ Griffin will be out several weeks due to flexor tendinitis—but even worse, Jarrod Parker (projected Opening Day starter) will be needing Tommy John surgery for the second time in his career. Despite the bad news, the As are looking to end Spring Training on a high note, before they take on the Cleveland Indians in two weeks for Opening Day. Oakland Athletics tickets run about $15 pricier for their inaugural game compared to their regular season games: the average price you'll pay on March 31 (Opening Day) is $80, versus the $64 you'd pay on average for a regular season game.
3/10/14 - Despite the fact that the San Francisco Giants are willing to share AT&T Park in 2015, the Oakland Athletics are now considering moving the team to a temporary stadium rather than share one with their cross-bay rivals—perhaps weary from their current situation with the Oakland Raiders. The A's don't seem to be bothered by the status of three injured position players who are still days away from returning: catcher Derek Norris, first baseman Daric Barton and outfielder Craig Gentry. Oakland has averaged 4.5 runs in their 8 games thus far, with Billy Burns and Sam Fuld making statements as they battle for the fourth outfield spot. This week, Oakland Athletics tickets are cheapest when they play the Royals on Wednesday (get-in for $17).
3/3/14 - The Oakland Athletics have made some major waves just five games into Spring Training. The team has raked in a 3-1-1 record, with two against Bay Area rivals San Francisco, thanks in part to Billy Burns (replaced Coco Crisp in the lineup) who's hitting .308. A highlight reel moment came when Gold Glove winner Josh Reddick made an impossible catch in the Cactus League opener at Scottsdale. The A's will hope to keep this exciting winning momentum alive, with two big games lined up this week: Tuesday against Milwaukee ($5 get-in) and Friday against Arizona ($24 get-in).
2/25/14 - Great news for Oakland A's fans: catcher John Jaso will resume his role behind the plate in a game for the first time since enduring a severe concussion last season. Jaso will start at catcher when Oakland takes on the Milwaukee Brewers this Thursday (2/27) in Phoenix; tickets start at $10. In the Twitter-sphere, Oakland infielder Eric Sogard, a relative unknown, is trending as a finalist in the MLB Network's #FaceOfMLB competition. Support Eric and the A's with Oakland Athletics tickets! Spring training tickets run $38 on average.
2/11/14 - The Oakland Athletics extended fleet-footed Coco Crisp's contract for two-years with hopes he'll top last year's career-high 22 home run number. The outfielder has already proven his worth on the roster, but Oakland's starting rotation is another story. The A's may have a strong lineup, but with three days left until pitchers start reporting, a proven No. 1 starter has yet to emerge. Springtime is when pitchers fighting for the lead spot put their goods on show, so don't miss out on Oakland A's tickets! Shell out just $6 and you can be in Scottsdale for their first game of
Cactus League play
, when they take on cross-city rivals, the San Francisco Giants.
1/30/14 - The Oakland Athletics, AL West kings for the last two years, have bolstered their already stellar bullpen with the acquisition of strong arms within their budget: Sans Colon and Anderson, the team has signed Kazmir, O'Flaherty, Johnson and Gregerson.
Spring Training
tickets are $46 on average at Phoenix Municipal Stadium. Get some Oakland A's tickets today and see this new-look bullpen take off!
The Oakland Athletics are currently basking in victory with two back-to-back AL West league titles, but this time around, the franchise is determined to lockdown the national title. The A's are headed into this season without Barton Colon or Brett Anderson, and the team still boasts a strong bullpen—especially with the recent signing of LHPs Eric O'Flaherty and Scott Kazmir, and RHPs Jim Johnson and Luke Gregerson.
The Oakland Athletics recently shot down the rumor of their interest in Stephen Drew at shortstop, stating that they were "comfortable with an Eric Sogard-Nick Punto" connection. Can the A's relive their last two triumphant Septembers? Will they finally seek revenge over the
Detroit Tigers
after two straight ALDS losses? This team is loaded with talent—score you Oakland A's tickets now and watch this Bay Area team take it to the top!
2013 Season
10/2/13 - Game 1 of the ALDS against the Detroit Tigers will be played Friday in Oakland. This ALDS is the cheapest of the four division series averaging just $108 on the secondary market.
Oakland Athletics ALDS tickets
for games 1, 2, and 5 (if nec.) are averaging $135. Entering the ALDS,
Oakland Athletics World Series tickets
are averaging $947, second cheapest in MLB only to St. Louis Cardinals World Series tickets.
9/25/13 - For the second year in a row the Oakland Athletics won the AL West and advanced to the
MLB Playoffs
. The A's would like to make a deeper run in the postseason than last year with their right handers leading the way; Colon, Parker, Griffin, and Gray will likely be the four starters. It has been a September to remember for the A's who went 17-6 this month and leads the West by 7.5 games heading into the last weekend of the regular season. The first home game of the division series at O.CO Coliseum has reasonably priced tickets, averaging $171 and starting at $56.
7/25/13 - Once again, the "Moneyball" crew have very quietly put together yet another impressive performance, while sneaking up on everyone and moving into first place in the AL West late in the first half. The A's are getting offensive contributions from players such as second-year outfield starter (and All-Star Home Derby champ) Yoenis Cespedes, third baseman Josh Donaldson, and first baseman Brandon Moss; and ace pitcher Bartolo Colon. Will the A's pull away in the second half?
The 2012 A's season was one of their best in recent memory. After trailing the division leading
by 13 games at the end of June and by 5 games with only 9 to play, the A's were able to catch up and clinch the division title by defeating Texas in the final game of the regular season. Despite losing a hard-fought ALCS to the
, Oakland far surpassed expectations for the season. After winning the 2012 AL Manager of the Year award, Bob Melvin looks to return to the playoffs in 2013. Oakland had a relatively quiet offseason but should be aided by the acquisition of catcher John Jaso, outfielder Chris Young, and shortstop Jed Lowrie. The A's also acquired Japanese shortstop Hiroyuki "Hero" Nakajima, who was a consistent .300 hitter in the Japanese league. Oakland hopes Hero will have as effective a rookie year as Cuban slugger Yoenis Cespedes did for the team in 2012. Cespedes looks to continue his development after batting .292, hitting 23 home runs, and finishing 2nd in AL Rookie of the year voting.
The A's begin their division title defense on 4/1 at home in their season opener against the
. Get-in price is around $27 with Oakland A's tickets averaging $79. Overall, average price to see a game at the
Oakland Coliseum
in 2013 is $59, 16% below league average and lowest of any 2012 playoff team. The most inexpensive A's games come in the month of April, when A's tickets average just $42. Currently, September is the next cheapest month to A's baseball with an average price of $51. Expect this number to rise if the A's manage to repeat their 2012 late-season performance.

Foreign Law Means Nothing If You're British; as Convicted Murderers McLauchlan and Parry Head Homeward, Dennis Ellam Questions Tony Blair's Intervention
Ellam, Dennis, The Birmingham Post (England)
The convicted murderers Lucille McLauchlan and Deborah Parry are flying home - their release another victory for the principle that Britons held in foreign prisons cannot possibly be guilty as charged.
No doubt they will raise a champagne toast on the journey back to Britain; they have not only their freedom to celebrate, but the good fortune that tabloid newspapers have been bidding six-figure sums for their stories.
For the brutal killing of a nursing colleague, it should be noted, they have spent less than 18 months in jail.
Even if the people of Saudi Arabia are not unduly concerned that their justice system is so open to bartering and manipulation, certainly there will be widespread disquiet in this country at the way in which McLauchlan and Parry have been have been allow ed to go.
The UK subscribes to the notion that there ought to be an international rule of law.
But when proven murderers, and before them convicted drug-smugglers, have their punishment waived and are despatched home, apparently because their nationality somehow mitigates their crime, the law's rule appears to depend upon circumstance.
At the heart of public concern will be the application of Royal prerogatives, to overturn the decisions of lawful courts.
McLauchlan and Parry are homeward-bound thanks to a pardon granted by Saudi's King Fahd.
Similarly, Karyn Smith and Patricia Cahill, jailed in Bangkok having been caught in possession of 66lbs of heroin at the airport, were returned home to Birmingham, as an act of clemency by Thailand's King Bhumibol.
In both cases, British prime ministers had intervened on behalf of their citizens. To secure the release of Smith and Cahill, a personal plea was sent directly from Mr John Major, while the case of McLauchlan and Parry was raised by Mr Tony Blair during his recent talks with King Fahd.
Prime ministers, like any politician, naturally respond to what they perceive to be the public opinion, and the image of Britons - female Britons, especially - incarcerated in a foreign land is a powerful opinion-shaper.
They "languish" in its cells. The conditions they must endure are invariably "hellish". They become "victims", in their drab prison uniforms, of a judiciary which might be rarely seen and probably little understood at home in the UK.
We do not even trust the USA. At the very start of the Louise Woodward trial, for example, there was outcry at the sight of an accused Briton being brought into the Boston courthouse in wrist and ankle chains, without much regard to the fact that this wa s exactly how an American would have been treated too.
And yet, the fervent jubilation which greeted Ms Woodward's release was deeply unsettling; likewise, the triumphant return of Smith and Cahill caused much unease, and now when McLauchlan and Parry arrive back there will have to be questioning about their premature release. …

It allows Congress to be on both sides of the issue, which is where most politicians want to be on most issues.
From the standpoint of the country, however, it is urgently important that the two issues be taken up separately, with border control being proven to be established first.
Otherwise, the American people get promises from politicians with a long track record of broken promises, especially on immigration, while illegal immigrants get their benefits up front and irrevocably for themselves and for the additional millions more who will cross the border.
Last year, the sop to the American people was the promise of a fence on the border. This year, the big question is: "Where is the fence?"
That will still be the question ten years from now, if we let the politicians soothe us with words.
The one encouraging aspect of the immigration issue is that the combined efforts of the White House and both Houses of Congress, together with most of the media, have thus far failed to turn the immigration fraud into the law of the land.
It is a disgrace that they have tried but a healthy sign of the commonsense of the people that they have still not succeeded.

Unfortunately this eBook is only available from within Australia.
Do you believe in the freedom of individuals to determine their own future and solve problems cooperatively?
Don't hurt people, and don't take their stuff. Simple and straightforward, that's liberty in a nutshell—no assembly required.
And yet it seems like, more and more, the decisions Washington makes about what to do for us, or to us, or even against us, are having an increasingly adverse impact on our lives. Young people can't find jobs, millions of Americans are losing the health care plans they were promised they could keep, and every one of us is somehow being targeted, monitored, snooped on, conscripted, induced, taxed, subsidized, regulated, or otherwise manipulated by someone else's agenda, based on someone else's decisions made in some secret meeting or closed-door legislative deal.
What gives?
Our government is out of control. But setting things right again requires that you step up and take your freedom back.
From Matt Kibbe, the influential leader of FreedomWorks, Don't Hurt People and Don't Take Their Stuff is the first true manifesto of a new libertarian grassroots movement. As political powermongers and crony corporatists in Washington continue to consolidate their control and infringe on our most fundamental liberties, Kibbe makes the libertarian case for freer people, more voluntary cooperation, and solving problems from the bottom up. He calls out the tyranny of faceless bureaucrats with too much power and discretion, laying out a clear road map for restoring liberty. A witty yet piercing critique of government's expanding control over you and your future, Don't Hurt People and Don't Take Their Stuff is a vital read for all those who cherish personal liberty and the unalienable right to choose your own path in life.
"For those eager to understand the clear-thinking that informs libertarian philosophy, Kibbe's book is an excellent choice. ... Kibbe's goal is to revive the libertarianism that clearly animated our founding fathers. ... [An] excellent book."

Thank you, glad to hear it worked somehow. Doing so much combat and monster fantasy stuff lately i was not really sure if i still get an simple romantic portrait right .
awesome work
I've come to the conclusion you're a master with textures.. Because I love them on every one of your works. I like the golden lighting, it goes well with your dreamy mood.
Glad you like the textures in my work, and the best is they all just happen while painting with painter, i really love this programm, it really simulates traditional media very well. I still don't get the traditional media look in my work that i am going for, but i thing it get better with every new piece.
On the other hand i think meanwhile i am better with digital media than with traditional

Nacho Vidal's Fucking Shemales #2 Favorite

P. Weasels (Return to Top)
Nacho Vidal was pretty much at the forefront of the tranny revolution as fas actors are concerned; I think the only big star who was higher up on the crest of the wave was Joey Silvera, and he was out of the acting business by the time he started in on his Rogue Adventures series. Rocco threw his hat into the ring with Kelly's Way to Love and a couple of other titles in which he performed in the same scenes as trannies but didn't really interact much, but Nacho, who seems like a thoroughgoing libertine with very little in the way of limits, puts his heart into it. He doesn't really perform with them either, but he does host a whole line of shemale videos and you get the feeling that offscreen, Nacho really gets down with the boys and the t-girls....

That means they are clipped to black (as opposed to clipped to white). Increasing the shadows should help there. As to whether it helps the image, I can't say. Some photos have black areas ;-)
Kirby Krieger Jul 29, 2013 8:03 AM
in response to billbir Solved
The following is, imho, the best general workflow for adjusting exposure.
Use the Exposure Slider to correct for gross differences between the recorded exposure and the desired exposure. Use the Black Point Slider to correct for gross underexposure. Use the Recovery Slider to correct for small areas over-exposed. (The Modifier Key Color Overlays are helpful.)
After thus dynamically setting the _limits_ of the exposure, use either the Brightness Slider or the Curves Brick or the Levels Brick to adjust the distribution of the luminance values inside those limits.
Then, as needed, use the Highlights Slider to lower the luminance of the lightest lights in your luminance range, and the (senselessly misnamed*) Shadows Slider to increase the luminance of the darkest darks in your luminance range.
The guide to the colors used by the Modifier Key Color Overlays is here in the User Manual.
*One of the first things beginning painters are taught is that "shadow" and "dark" describe importantly different phenomena. Aperture has no idea what a shadow is.

Thanks very much. You have helped me understand the process and I am now better able to tackle the problem.I appreciate the time you have taken to reply to my query. I recognise that photo-editing cannot be definitive, as a good photo, is in the eye of the viewer and is therefore, subjective, but I now have some good guidlines to work to, in using Aperture.
Ernie Stamper Jul 29, 2013 8:56 AM
in response to Kirby Krieger
A bit harse on Aperture, perhaps, considering that for a longer period of use, Adobe, in Photoshop, uses the terminolgy of Shadows/Highlights for similar adjustment section, does it not?

The good news is that the Vaio P is back, with Windows 7 this time, and some more powerful components. Let's hope it can help us forget about the first time around the block.
Handling, design and build: silent and with a quality finish
This newcomer won't do anything to harm Sony's reputation: it's a genuine pocket PC and very well-designed. The Vaio P is a beautiful object that immediately aroused our curiosity: around half the size and weight of a netbook, it has a striking red exterior case and scren bezel. All of the parts fit together well and it definitely feels like a luxury laptop.
No, we haven't cropped the photo: the kaboard takes up all of the space
The keyboard has chicket-style keys, with small (13.5 x 12 mm) flat keys like those on the Vaio V12. Typing on the soft keys is a pleasant experience and they bounce back well. The small keys won't necessarily suit people with very large fingers, though, especially because you can't rest your hands on the front of the computer: the keyboard takes up all of the available room.
A trackpoint replaces the touchpad we'd expect on a laptop, leaving only a small rubber dimple in the centre of the keyboard. It's accurate, but it takes a little getting used to if you're more familiar with large trackpads or even a mouse. It's a feature on a lot of professional laptops, and is familiar to many from IBM's ThinkPad range, subsequently bought by Lenovo. The left and right click buttons are responsive and not too loud.
The webcam produces reasonable video: it's fluid, but lacks detail. For once, overexposed areas aren't burned out and contrast is respected.
The laptop is almost entirely silent, the only noise coming from the hard drive as there's no cooling system involved. Heat escapes naturally from the outside of the machine. It's a shame Sony didn't include SSD storage instead, which would have made the computer entirely silent, as well as resistant to shocks and more powerful.
Because of the limited space around the edge of this netbook, there aren't many connectivity options. There's still two USB ports and a headphone jack, as well as special proprietary link for an extension module that you can plug in and use to hook up RJ45 and VGA cables. That's a handy pairing: when you get back to your desk, you can plug your Vaio P into an external monitor and connect it to the network.
Underneath, the only removable element is the battery, which is good news. To get access everything else, you need to completely take it apart, which we advise against.
|USB 2.0 and VGA/RJ45 extension device
|Power, USB 2.0 and headphone jack
Processor Power: office use and Internet, if you're not in a hurry
Windows 7 index: 2.5. Details: CPU 2.6 - Memory 4.3 - Graphics 4.4 – Gaming graphics 2.5 – Main hard drive 4.4.
Unlike its netbook friends--and the Vaio P isn't really a netbook--the Sony Vaio VGN-P31ZK uses a CPU from Intel's Atom series, but this time it's from the Z range, the Z450. Running at 1.86 GHz, it doesn't struggle next to the more traditional N series Atom processors, the N270 and N280. It achieved an index score of 18, not far from the average of 20 achieved by machines based on the N270. These scores are indexed against our standard, the Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Xi 3650, at 100, which uses an Intel Core 2 Duo T9400 processor. Although it's very clearly limited to office apps and looking at photos and videos, this little Vaio P struggles less than we feared it might.
Unfortunately, that isn't enough to meet the demands of Windows 7. The experience is often slow and jerky, even with 2 GB of RAM. These problems are no doubt caused by the very slow hard drive, which only turns at a speed of 4200 rpm. Programs take too long to start up, and the computer itself takes two minutes to boot Windows to a desktop you can actually use: it's 12 seconds before you see the Windows boot screen, 53 seconds for the splash screen and then another 30 more before the desktop shows up and starts loading. That's far too long to wait, and we really don't understand why Sony didn't improve this area by including an SSD that would fit perfectly in this sort of computer, especially when you think of the price.
You can play Full HD 1080p, Blu-ray equivalent video on this netbook. We were surprised, but the integrated Poulsbo graphics chipset works wonders. The load on the CPU is around 22% with hardware acceleration in use (make sure you use compatible software like Power DVD), and energy consumption is around 19 W.
3D Gaming: forget about it and make do with 2D
The graphics hardware might well be able to manage HD, but it's not ready for 3D. You can only really use laptops with ATI or Nvidia ION graphics cards to be able to enjoy the most recent games, as long as the processor doesn't hold them back; a single core Intel Atom processor just isn't enough.
Audio Quality: headphones highly recommended
We weren't expecting anything different from such a small device: the audio quality is comparable to a mobile phone, with treble dominating and virtually no bass. You'll have to make to do with the relatively acceptable headphone jack.
Portability & Battery Life: very light, but it doesn't last long!
Very well integrated with the rest of the machine, the battery only managed to power the Vaio P for two hours of video playback (WiFi turned off, headphones plugged in and the screen brightness at 100 cd/m²). That just isn't good enough for a mobile computer like this, and doesn't stand up well to comparison with the best of the netbook world like the Toshiba NB200 and its 6 hours 10 minutes or the MSI Wind U115, which remains the undisputed champion with anywhere between 7 and 9 h 52 of battery life.
The charger is very small, which is excellent. The most incredible thing about the Vaio P is actually how light it is: at a little over 600 g, it's around half the weight of your average netbook. It's in shape too, less than an inch thick when it's closed. It's the perfect size to fit into a handbag.

STAND-TO! Edition: Friday February 28, 2014
Today's Focus:
The Integrated Personnel and Pay System- Army Release 1
What is it?
The Integrated Personnel and Pay System-Army (IPPS-A) is a web-based system designed to provide integrated personnel and pay capabilities to the active Army, Army National Guard, and Army Reserve. This system will ultimately create a comprehensive personnel and pay record for each Soldier for their entire Army career.
Release 1 will be deployed to the Army in three waves, starting in March 2014:
- -Wave 1 will provide the Army National Guard with a trusted database and the ability for a Soldier to view and retrieve their Soldier Record Brief (SRB.)
- -Wave 2 will provide the same capability to the active Army.
- -Wave 3 will be available to all components and will provide Soldiers, administrators and leaders the ability to view and retrieve SRBs, and provide leaders and administrators access to nine pre-defined queries.
What has the Army done?
The Army released HQDA EXORD 055-14: Integrated Personnel And Pay System (IPPS-A) - Increment I, to ensure leaders and human resource professionals at all levels are prepared for their organizations to implement changes IPPS-A will bring.
Why is this important to the Army?
IPPS-A's first release will lay the foundation for future releases of the system which will ultimately provide a comprehensive personnel and pay record for each Soldier from every component in one system. Additionally, Soldiers will eventually use the Soldier Record Brief in place of the Enlisted and Officer Record Brief to track their personnel information for their entire career. In order to ensure data is correct in IPPS-A the Army needs each Soldier to check their SRB for data correctness. If the Soldier's SRB has errors, they need to contact their S-1 to ensure the data is changed in the current HR system so the updates can be reflected in IPPS-A.
What continued efforts does the Army have planned for the future?
The Army intends to develop the remaining four releases of IPPS-A after it fields the system's first release this year. The most up-to-date information is available on the IPPS-A website.

Nurse staffing levels is only one element to consider when comparing nursing homes. While higher staffed nursing homes may offer additional staffing hours and care for patients with more serious illnesses factors like turnover and actual skill also contribute to these staffing numbers.

Programing Head, Viacom Colors
Yardi, who has a fascination for Louis Vuitton bags, could easily act in one of her serials but prefers to be behind the scenes. She is the programming chief at Colors, the upstart television channel from Viacom that rocketed to No. 2 in the Hindi general entertainment genre within six months of its launch last July. Yardi has changed the rules of programming by giving viewers contemporary plots instead of the junk they were fed as entertainment. After spending 14 years at local channel Zee, Yardi recently succeeded in dislodging the market leader, News Corp's Star Plus.
