Three FEMEN activisits disrupted an Islamic conference [2] in Berlin on Thursday by sprinting onto the stage topless, Dailymail reports.
The three women carried banners urging Muslim women to "get naked." They were immediately taken off stage by security.
According to their website, FEMEN is a women's rights organization [3] who seeks "to provoke patriarchy into open conflict by forcing it to disclose its aggressive antihuman nature to fully discredit it in the eyes of history."
A spokesperson for Berlin Islam Week [4] said the audience kept their composure.
"The audience, mainly from the Muslim community, reacted to the disturbance appropriately, so that we all were very quickly able to eventually continue the program of the Islam Week."
Berlin Islam Week seeks to foster open religious dialogue and is open to members of all religions.

A NORTH Yorkshire drama group is to be one of the first youth theatres in the country to stage a production of Miss Saigon.
The Crash Bang Wallop (CBW) theatre group, based in Stokesley, is to stage the popular show later this month.
The West End has just released an edition of the show for schools and youth theatre groups and the Stokesley actors will be one of the first in the UK to perform it.
Loading article content
Written by the creators of Les Miserables, it is set during the Vietnam War and tells the story of a young Vietnamese girl who falls in love with an American soldier. The production will be performed at Northallerton Forum from Wednesday, February 13 until Saturday, February 16.
The group's director, Dan Brookes, said he was determined to apply for a performance licence as soon as he heard it was being released to schools and youth groups.
"The music is as wonderful as Les Mis and I am so thrilled to be able to direct the region's first performance of such a fantastic show," said Mr Brookes.
"I was also keen to take it to Northallerton Forum to show our support for what is now a not-for-profit organisation, run by the local community, since the local authority relinquished control of it."
The cast is aged between seven and 17 and the lead roles are played by Ruby Hoggarth and Joseph Wetherell, both are aged 14 and students at Stokesley School.
Tickets for the shows, which all start at 7.30pm, can be obtained by ringing the CBW box office on 01642-722192.

CE-Yo No Mo' — Hirshberg Leaves Stonyfield President/CEO Role
He's been a standard-bearer for the organic success story for years, as well as a mentor to Honest Tea co-founder Seth Goldman, but Stonyfield founder Gary Hirshberg announced today that he's handing day-to-day operations over to former Ben & Jerry's CEO Walt Freese.
Hirshberg's sale of Stonyfield to Danone in 2003 — and subsequent operation of the company as a unit with autonomy within that larger company — is largely seen as a model for Goldman's sale of Honest Tea to the Coca-Cola Co. last year. Hirshberg was a shareholder and board member at Honest Tea, and maintains a role on that company's advisory board.
Hirshberg will remain with Stonyfield as a shareholder and Chairman of the Board, while Freese assumes the twin roles of President and CEO. Hirshberg will also take on several board roles at Stonyfield's parent company, Grupo Danone, while maintaining oversight of Stonyfield initiatives like its Stonyfield Cafes and Profits-for-the-Planet. He said his time will also be spent on working on larger agricultural and regulatory policy issues.
"I will also focus a significant amount of attention on advancing Stonyfield's broader mission and specifically advocating for change in national food and agricultural policies, especially seeking the labeling of GE foods," Hirshberg said in a statement posted to the Stonyfield web site.
Today's announcement from Stonyfield, which includes a note that Freese was "hand-selected" as Hirshberg's successor, follows:
Stonyfield Founder Gary Hirshberg Steps Into New Role, Selects Mission-Driven Successor Walt Freese as Stonyfield CEO
Freese, former CEO of Ben & Jerry's, to direct next phase of Stonyfield growth; Hirshberg will continue in leadership roles with Stonyfield and Danone
LONDONDERRY, N.H., Jan. 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — Stonyfield announced today that mission-driven business leader Walt Freese will join the company as President and Chief Executive Officer (CE-Yo). Co-Founder Gary Hirshberg will continue as Stonyfield Chairman and shareholder, while advocating for change in national food and agriculture policies, including the labeling of genetically engineered foods.
Hirshberg hand-selected a like-minded successor in Freese, former CEO of Ben & Jerry's Homemade Inc., who will take the reins of the organic yogurt company later this month.
"In Walt Freese, Stonyfield gains a leader with a stellar track record at another values-led company," said Hirshberg. "Walt is well versed in fostering a sustainability mission in partnership with a global food company, and is deeply committed to Stonyfield's organic and environmental missions. Since our early days at Stonyfield, I've watched organic become a $29 billion industry and a healthy mainstay in peoples' diets. Now more than ever, people want to know where their food comes from and to trust the companies behind the brands. I look forward to working with Walt to continue to grow Stonyfield and further our mission of promoting healthy food, healthy people and a healthy planet."
As Stonyfield Chairman, Hirshberg will remain involved with the company he co-founded nearly 30 years ago and he will maintain oversight of Stonyfield's European sister companies, its new Stonyfield Cafes and the company's Profits-for-the-Planet program, while serving on several boards at French parent company Danone. The move will allow Hirshberg to devote more attention to a variety of local and national political efforts including seeking labeling of genetically engineered foods with the Just Label It campaign and his work on US food and agriculture policy as a Co-Chair of AGree, a Washington, DC-based public policy initiative.
Freese will assume his full duties as CE-Yo at Stonyfield later this month. He will be overseeing America's top selling organic yogurt company, with brands and product lines including Stonyfield's core organic yogurts, rapidly growing Organic Oikos Greek Yogurt, and popular product lines including YoBaby, YoToddler and YoKids.
As CEO of Ben & Jerry's, Freese led the company on a fantastic growth track, while championing environmental issues and acting to promote social justice worldwide. During his 10 years with the company, sales more than doubled and operating profit margins more than tripled. At the same time the company tackled critical issues in areas as diverse as global climate change, environmental sustainability, supporting family farms and challenging federal budget priorities to increase support for basic human needs. Prior to joining Ben & Jerry's, Freese was President of Celestial Seasonings, a values-led natural foods business in Boulder, Colorado.
"When you look at both the boom in organic food sales and rapid expansion within the yogurt category, it is clear Stonyfield is perfectly positioned in the marketplace," said Freese. "I'm excited and fortunate to have the opportunity to work with Gary and the Stonyfield team to further the Stonyfield organic and sustainability mission and expand the market for Stonyfield's unrivaled products. There's nowhere else I'd rather be."

Katie Holmes and Jimmy Fallon are the two best friends that anyone could ever have. The pals got together on The Tonight Show on Monday, Aug. 11, spending some quality time and giggling up a storm.
The Tonight Show host Fallon, 39, had Holmes, 35, on the show to promote her new movie The Giver, but they got sidetracked with games and laughter.
One such diversion was a new Tonight Show game called Photo Booth.
"So there's this great app on the iPad called photo booth, where you can take weird photos of yourself," Fallon explained. "What we're gonna do is, we're gonna take turns making ourselves look as weird as possible, then see if the other person can match it."
After encouraging viewers to play along at home, Fallon and Holmes each picked up iPads and tried out their best funny faces.
Puffing out their cheeks and squinting their eyes, the stars utilized a variety of distorting effects on the camera, yielding some hilarious results.

"There's old Sam Bowles—and young Sam Bowles—
"And young Sam Bowles's son—
"And young Sam Bowles is old Sam Bowles
"When old Sam Bowles is done!"
Thus sang the beery compositors of the venerable Springfield (Mass.) Republican from the time of Founder Samuel Bowles (1824) through the regime of Samuel II (1851) and Samuel III (1878). When Samuel III ("Sambo") died in 1915 the printers quit singing about "young Sam Bowles." It was evident that Samuel IV would never become "old Sam Bowles" to the staff. A rollicking, roving...

The Chatwal
128 West 44th St.; 212-764-6200; 83 rooms from $457; thechatwalny.com. No eco-rating.
It is hard to resist a hotel that offers to pick you up at the airport. Being greeted at arrivals by a driver holding your name on a clipboard is one of life's great little pleasures. When that driver is a solidly built Russian in a black suit and mirrored sunglasses who is driving a black on black BMW sedan, it is downright cinematic.
The leading man of mystery fantasy carries all the way to the hotel where a liveried doorman greets the car and ushers you into the art deco lobby. Oxblood chairs are arrayed around mirrored side tables and slender chrome accents reflect soft light. It's easy to imagine Katharine Hepburn having drinks with Fred Astaire in such a space. It may well have happened too. The building was formerly the headquarters of the legendary Lambs Club, America's first professional theatrical club that, since its inception in 1874, counted everyone from John Wayne to Woody Allen among its members.
Originally designed by Stanford White - the famed 19th-century architect best known for designing the Fifth Avenue mansions of the Astors and the Vanderbilts, among other notable buildings - the Chatwal is an art deco masterpiece. The hotel pays homage to its past in some very modern ways. For example, the elevators are equipped with video monitors showing the movie American Eve, which details White's tempestuous relationship with the model Evelyn Nesbit that ended in his murder in 1906. You'd have to ride the elevator about 120 times to see the whole film, but it works well in 30-second segments.
Thierry Despont, the same architect who helped restore the Statue of Liberty, was brought in to oversee the redesign of the hotel. It is a loving and masterful restoration that honours the art deco tradition and maintains historically significant aspects of the building's history: a plaque listing original club members, a 100-year-old mantelpiece, ornamental carvings. For all of its period glamour, though, modern touches like heated sidewalks outside and patios are thoughtful and modern.
At 400 square feet, my room (considered a Theatre Guestroom style) is generously proportioned and comfortable. The walls are covered in fine suede and the cedar-lined closets are wrapped in leather. The desk, designed to resemble an old travelling trunk, is also wrapped in leather and opens to reveal a lit makeup mirror. Clever.
The view looking north across 44th Street is fairly uninspiring, generic New York streetscape, but the great bathroom more than makes up for it. What feels like acres of black marble are reflected in spotless mirrors and the flick of a remote reveals an integrated 19-inch television screen. The Japanese Toto toilet, the Gulfstream G6 of toilets, has a heated seat and multiple jet functions and glows a soft blue in the dark, doubling as a nightlight. There's a walk-in rain shower, but not all rooms come with tubs, so request one if that's a priority.
From the bartenders to the bellhops, there's a sense that everyone involved with the hotel is genuinely proud of it. The electronic "do not disturb" and "please make up room" signals are infinitely superior to the old-fashioned handle tags and ensure that you never need to be bothered when you're trying to watch Jeopardy! in the bath.
Beyond the handmade Shifman mattresses and the Kashwere robes, the Chatwal has pulled out all the stops when it comes to amenities. Each room comes with a set of bespoke playing cards in a silver holder - card tables are available on request - and a backgammon set. In addition to docking stations and free Wi-Fi and wired Internet, there are laptops, iPads and pre-programmed iPods available at the front desk for anyone who forgot their electronics. Turndown includes complimentary shoeshine and butler service is offered in addition to 24-hour room service.
The spa offers a wide range of treatments, many of which are offered in-room, while the Infinity Saltwater Lounge boasts a hot spa, a cold plunge pool and a small lap pool that simulates swimming against a current.
From the moment it opened last autumn, the Lambs Club Restaurant became one of Manhattan's hottest restaurants. The elegant dining room, with its red leather and chrome chairs and banquettes, is lined with portraits of the theatre club's famous members. A crackling fire in a vast hearth anchors the space. Chef Geoffrey Zakarian, a celebrated veteran of New York hotel dining rooms, offers a snapshot of where contemporary American comfort food is at this moment. Heirloom beets in a bouquet of colours are joined by tender, mild stracciatella cheese and white balsamic. Meaty ravioli are filled with braised pork, peppery rapini and savoury Sardinian pecorino. Pink pistachios are incorporated into a honey sweetened cake and chocolate pot de crème is treated to a red-wine sabayon.
Even for hotel guests, securing a table during prime hours (any time between about 6 and 11 p.m.) can be a challenge. But there is often space in the mezzanine bar, where bartenders in spotless white jackets hand-carve ice for impeccable cocktails. Try the Gold Rush: a symbiotic blend of bourbon, lemon and honey. Much of the dining-room menu is available (including the excellent sirloin burger with gingered coleslaw), although fewer fashion editors will see you up here.
The Chatwal retains some of the clubby exclusiveness associated with the building's early beginnings: Guests feel like they've been invited into a private club that is equal parts discretion and glamour.

A lesson in how not to handle important news
ESPN.com got too caught up in its own world this morning and ended up trivializing the death of a 21-year-old man.
The site's framing of offensive tackle Aaron Douglas' death in terms of what it meant for Alabama football's depth chart was deeply offensive, and after some chatter around the web and the social media universe, the brief Rumor Central piece was pulled down.
ESPN's mistake offers a good lesson: You have to keep your perspective. In order to write well, even about life on the playing field, you always have to be aware of life beyond the playing field.
It's easy to get caught up in sports, especially the passionate world of college sports, to such an extent that it starts to seem like sports is the whole world. But it's not. Sometimes how something affects a team or a league or a sport isn't the important part of a story.
One of my favorite war stories from my days at the old San Francisco Examiner really was a war story. It may have been apocryphal, but I can still hear my friend Dave Reznek, maybe 45 years my senior, telling it.
It was May 1944. The Second World War was heading for its denouement. The Germans were retreating in the Soviet Union and Italy. The Allies were advancing on Rome and bombing France in preparation for D-Day. Japan was weakening in the Pacific but resisting stubbornly.
And a sportswriter, his mind focused on his beat, began his story about a track meet: "The eyes of the world will be on Modesto this weekend …"
Sports are great. They can do all sorts of wonderful things for us. They can create communities. They can teach lessons. They can help give our lives meaning and flavor.
But there are times when sports have to be kept out of the conversation, kept separate from the truly important things in life. Death is one of those times.
A death is a tragedy. If it's the death of an active athlete, it will certainly affect a depth chart somewhere, or a pennant race or a playoff series or next week's game. But those are separate conversations, for different times.
Just this morning, before news of Douglas' death broke, we had an email conversation at Bleacher Report about a slide show that was being considered: The 100 most heartbreaking losses in college football history.
The original idea was to include heartbreaking game events such as Florida State's "wide right" loss to Miami or Stanford losing to Cal on "The Play," as well as heartbreaking life events such as the Marshall plane crash or Bear Bryant dying suddenly weeks after he'd retired.
Although the plan was to create a clear separation within the list, to make it clear we weren't trying to equate, say, "wide right" and the Marshall crash, I and others argued that we shouldn't combine those two lists, that even talking about "wide right" and the Marshall plane crash in the same story would be taken as equating them, all disclaimers notwithstanding.
Sports is sports and life is life. Sometimes — usually — the two intersect. That's part of what makes sports so compelling. But there are times when sports has to take a back seat, to retire from the field for a little while.
We saw that in the wake of the 9/11 attacks. Sports, belying the oft-cited idea that they are some kind of national religion, simply stopped. We put them away for a while.
Something to think about whenever tragedy is in the sports news.

Robert Gurney
Robert Gurney (31 July 1879 – 5 March 1950) was a British zoologist from the Gurney family, most famous for his monographs on British Freshwater Copepoda (1931–1933) and the Larvae of Decapod Crustacea (1942). He was not affiliated with any institution, but worked at home, initially in Norfolk, and later near Oxford. He travelled to North Africa and Bermuda, and received material from other foreign expeditions, including the Terra Nova Expedition (1910–1913) and the Discovery Investigations of the 1920s and 1930s.
Robert Gurney was born in 1879 as the fourth son of John Gurney (1845–1887) and Isabel Charlotte Gurney (later Baroness Talbot de Malahide) of Sprowston Hall, Norfolk. He went to school at Eton College, and went on to study at New College, Oxford, graduating with first class honours in 1902.[1] He was never associated with any institution, but worked from his home, initially near Stalham, Norfolk, but from 1928 at Boars Hill, outside Oxford.[1] He became a lifelong friend of Walter Garstang after the two men met while Garstang was running Easter Classes at Plymouth, which Gurney was attending as an undergraduate. Gurney went on to marry Garstang's sister, Gamzu (1878-1972).[2] Later, Garstang's daughter married Alister Hardy, strengthening Gurney's connections with zoology.[2]
Robert and Gamzu had one child, Oliver Gurney (1911-2001), who became a leading Assyriologist and Hittitologist.[3]
Scientific work[edit]
Gurney's first scientific work was a paper on metamorphosis in the crab Corystes cassivelaunus, which he published in 1902 while still an undergraduate at the University of Oxford.[1] Two more papers on decapods appeared in 1903, and 1904 saw his first paper on freshwater copepods.[1] Realising the need for a specialist field station for freshwater biology to match the marine biological stations at Plymouth (Marine Biological Association) and Naples (Stazione Zoologica), Robert and his brother Eustace (later Lord Mayor of Norwich) set up Great Britain's first freshwater laboratory at Sutton Broad.[2] This station did not survive the First World War, but Gurney was later among the founders of the Freshwater Biological Association, which set up the field station at Far Sawrey on Windermere.[1]
Gurney's two great study objects were the Copepoda and the larvae of Decapoda, and his greatest works were the three-volume monograph British Freshwater Copepoda, published by the Ray Society in 1931–1933, and his Larvae of Decapod Crustacea published by the Ray Society in 1942.[2] Perhaps through the influence of Garstang, Gurney rejected Ernst Haeckel's biogenetic law (that "ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny"), preferring Garstang's concept of paedomorphosis as an explanation for the similarities between copepods and decapod larvae.[2] Gurney was, however, very tentative in his speculations.[2]
Gurney took part in several expeditions, including one to North Africa in 1906, and the Cambridge University Suez Expedition in 1924.[2] He also worked on material collected by other expeditions, including the Terra Nova Expedition (1910–1913), the Discovery Investigations (1920s and 1930s) and the Great Barrier Reef Expedition of 1928–1929.[2] Gurney returned to the Red Sea, visiting the marine laboratory at Hurghada in 1936, and visited Bermuda twice: once with Walter Garstang in 1935, and once with both Garstang and Marie V. Lebour in 1938.[2]

The Cleveland VA Medical Center agreed to settle for $500,000 a lawsuit brought by the widow of a 59-year-old veteran after a surgeon perforated his bowel during a surgery to repair a hernia. Dewey Wise was a truck driver from East Canton, Ohio. His widow was represented by medical malpractice attorney R. Craig McLaughlin of the Ohio personal injury law firm, Elk & Elk.
McLaughlin's client had surgery in September 2009 to repair a hernia so he could return to work as a truck driver. Unknown to Mr. Wise and his wife, it was the first time the VA surgeon had ever performed the procedure by himself and he had only been a licensed surgeon for a few months. A hole in Dewey's intestines was made during the surgery, which allowed the contents of his bowel to spill out into his abdomen. This was the first medical mistake, but a second mistake was made when the doctors at the VA failed to recognize there was a hole in his bowel until several days later. Consequently, Mr. Wise became very sick, developed a serious infection, and died several months later.
"It was only supposed to have been a one-day hernia surgery, so I figured he was supposed to go home. And then when they kept keeping him day after day, then it started running through my mind why isn't he going home?," said the widow, Barbara Wise . "The men and women who serve our country in the armed forces deserve to receive quality health care at VA medical facilities," McLaughlin said. "Sadly, these types of mistakes happen far too often. If only this surgeon had followed simple safety rules that are put in place to protect the patient, then this whole tragedy could have been avoided. Hopefully, having pursued this case will protect other veterans."
This was a Federal Tort Claim Act case brought in the U.S. District Federal Court in Akron, Ohio. The Honorable John R. Adams approved the settlement.

My ears now want to bleed in a good way. Kept me entertained throughout. Great song, however I would have liked a more solid ending instead of the trail-off, and at times it got a little...too glitchy mayhaps? Nevertheless, well done.
Thanks for the review, and you're probably right about the trail-off. Actually make that definitely right, its rarely a good idea. Its just that the original is a bit longer, so I didn't want to spend too much time making a shorter version.
Too glitchy? hehe..no such thing ;)

The growth of national tournaments over the last few years has provided the best teams in the country with a measuring stick—head-to-head matchups. The concentration of talent at these high-profile events also provides talent evaluators with a chance to see a collection of top prospects on the field in a competitive environment. Here is a rundown of the top high school tournaments this spring that are certain to factor heavily into the team rankings.
USA Baseball National High School Invitational, March 26-29
After two strong years, the third installment of the NHSI has a chance to be the best yet, a high standard to surpass. Eight of the top 25 teams in the country will travel to the USA Baseball National Training Complex in Cary, N.C.: No. 2 Venice (Fla.) High, No. 5 Milton (Ga.) High, No. 11 Dyer County High (Newbern, Tenn.), No. 17 T.C. Roberson High (Asheville, N.C.), No. 19 Mountain Pointe High (Phoenix), No. 21 ThunderRidge High (Highlands Ranch, Colo.), No. 23 Parkview High (Lilburn, Ga.) and No. 25 Coral Springs (Fla.) Christian Academy.
The NHSI will host a star-studded crop of draft prospects, including 11 of Top 100 high school prospects and eight of the top 50: Clovis (Calif.) High infielder Jacob Gatewood (3; committed to Southern California), Coral Springs Academy righthander Touki Toussaint (5; Vanderbilt), Roberson first baseman Braxton Davidson (10; North Carolina), Gainesville (Ga.) High outfielder Michael Gettys (15; Georgia), Parkview High lefthander Mac Marshall (16; Louisiana State), Orange Lutheran (Corona, Calif.) shortstop Josh Morgan (27; UCLA), Milton righthander Dylan Cease (28; Vanderbilt), The First Academy (Orlando, Fla.) lefthander/outfielder Adam Haseley (36, Virginia), TFA lefthander Foster Griffin (53; Mississippi), Regis Jesuit (Denver) lefthander David Peterson (56; Oregon) and Coral Springs Academy catcher Benito Santiago Jr. (90; Tennessee).
A series of more extensive previews on the NHSI will come in March as the event approaches.
LaGrange Invitational, Feb. 27- March 2
LaGrange, Ga., will be a hot destination for evaluators this weekend as the LaGrange Invitational will be littered with prospects in the eight-team field.
Cartersville (Ga.) High, the defending state champs at the 3A level, was considered for the national rankings. North Florida Christian (Tallahassee, Fla.) is a talented team that could move into the rankings this year and has one of the top combinations of pitcher and position player teammates in the draft.
Outfielder Matthew Railey (42; Florida State) has a potent lefthanded bat and had an excellent showing at the Florida Diamond Club. Lefthander Carson Sands (76; Florida State) is a showcase veteran with a fastball that has touched 92. His younger brother, righthander Cole Sands, is a draft prospect for the 2015 class.
Spanish Fort (Ala.) High righthander Jesse McCord (Mississippi State) showed average fastball velocity, strike-throwing ability and feel for a changeup at the East Coast Pro.
Montrell Marshall (Auburn) is a big-bodied third baseman with defensive chops and arm strength to go with power potential at the plate for South Gwinnett High (Snellville, Ga.).
A pair of Florida schools boast prospects in outfielder Justin Smith (43; Bartram Trail High, St. Johns, Fla.) and righthander Andrew Karp (West Orange High, Winter Garden, Fla.). Smith, a Miami commit, is a physical specimen with a well-rounded skill set and power potential. Karp (Florida State) has a low-90s fastball that has touched 93 mph. West Orange righthander Austin Bergner is one of the top pitchers in the 2016 class with a fastball that already touched the low 90s and he has a projectable body.
Horizon National Tournament, March 24-28
The Horizon National Tournament, hosted by Horizon High in Scottsdale, Ariz., has a diverse geographic mix of teams, with seven different states represented in the 12-team field.
No. 8 Harvard-Westlake (Studio City, Calif.) is the only ranked team, but Mountain View High (Meridian, Idaho) and Rocky Mountain High (Meridian, Idaho) are two of the top five teams in the Gem State. Gonzaga commit Branson Trube (Mountain View) is an athletic outfielder who made the Area Code Games team.
Brophy Prep in Phoenix is a historically strong program that could factor into the rankings this year and has righthander Ryan Castellani (Arizona State), the top prep righthander in Arizona.
Virginia commit Tommy Doyle, a righthander from Flint Hill High, Oakton, Va., is a big-bodied pitcher with a fastball that reaches the low 90s and a breaking ball that flashes average.
Anaheim Lions Easter Tournament, March 29- April 2
In its 40th year in existence, the Anaheim Lions Tournament will host 78 teams this year.
There is not a ranked team in the field of 78, with teams mostly from California, but there are some interesting draft prospects.
Villa Park (Calif.) High outfielder Brandon Gonzalez participated in the Area Code Games last August, which was the coming-out party for Murrieta Valley High third baseman Kevin Padlo (San Diego). The righthanded-hitting Padlo has power potential and the arm to stick at third base.
The top draft prospect on Scotts Valley (Calif.) High is infielder Joe Gillette (Oregon State).
Hard 9 National Classic, April 14-17
The 25th annual Hard 9 National Classic, which held at Cal State Fullerton's Goodwin Field and two California high schools, has a strong blend of top teams and draft prospects. No. 14 Greenway High from Phoenix headlines the field of 16 teams, 11 of which are from California. Huntington Beach (Calif.) High is one of the top unranked teams in California and could move into the rankings during the season.
Three other teams have follows for scouts. Athletic righthander Maverick Buffo of Spanish Fork (Utah) High will likely face some of the best competition he sees all spring at the National Classic. The Brigham Young commit has a fastball that has touched the low 90s and a breaking ball that projects as average.
IMG Academy (Bradenton, Fla.) has a solid core of players with outfielder Luke Bonfield (Arkansas), middle infielder Taylor Lane (Florida) and outfielder Andrew DiLacqua, a Florida Diamond Club showcase participant. Bonfield hit well on the showcase circuit, especially at East Coast Pro Showcase, where he was one of the top hitters. He has a chance to be one of the better pure hitters in the high school class.
Strong lefthanded-hitting outfielder/first baseman Brock Lundquist headlines the Fountain Valley (Calif.) High squad.
Boras Classic, April 14-17 (North); March 29- April 4 (South); Championship TBA
Because California structures its postseasons to declare sectional, not state champs, the second annual Boras Classic is constructed to find a state champion of the 32-team field in the best high school baseball state in the country.
Elk Grove (Calif.) High will host the 16-team Northern bracket and No. 12 JSerra Catholic High (San Juan Capistrano, Calif.) and Mater Dei (Santa Ana, Calif.) will host the remaining 16 teams in the Southern bracket. The winners will advance to play in the championship game held at Pacific.
The event features two ranked teams (JSerra and No. 2 St. Francis HS, Mountain View, Calif.) and five others that were worthy considerations for the rankings: Chino Hills (Calif.) High, Archbishop Mitty High (San Jose), Buchanan High (Clovis, Calif.), Granite Hills High (El Cajon, Calif.) and Mater Dei.
Six prospects ranked in the high school Top 100 will participate in the event: Elk Grove outfielder Derek Hill (19; Oregon), Bishop Amat (La Puente, Calif.) outfielder Scott Hurst (39; Cal State Fullerton), Buchanan outfielder Trenton Kemp (46 ; Fresno State), St. Francis catcher Tim Susnara (58; Oregon), Glendora (Calif.) High outfielder D.J. Peters (66 ; Cal State Fullerton), and Granite Bay (Calif.) High righthander Mitch Hart (79; Southern California).
Two other members of the 2014 class have been staples on the showcase circuit: Buchanan righthander/infielder Michael Bono (UC Santa Clara) and Cypress (Calif.) High outfielder Elijah Skipps, a strongly-built switch-hitter.
A pair of 2015 pitchers who pitched at the Area Code Games as underclassmen will provide a look ahead at next year's draft class in Aliso Niguel (Aliso Vieja, Calif.) righthander Kyle Molnar, who touched 93 mph with his fastball in the fall, and Chino Hills lefthander Bailey Falter (UC Santa Barbara), who had an outstanding outing in January at the Under Armour All-American Preseason Tournament in January.

CHANGES to Chiltern Railways timetable have met with a mixed response from a rail users' group.
The firm said its December timetable would provide more seats and faster journeys from Banbury to London Marylebone.
This includes more seats on the 6.58am and 7.24am weekday services and a 6.15pm express from London.
And it will run direct services from King's Sutton at 6.09am, 8.11am and 9.10am instead of 5.29am, 6.18am and 9.51am now.
It said this was in response to concerns about services at the village during a public consultation.
And the number of weekend seats to London will increase by 2,650 to 42,370 and from London by 2,750 to 42,622.
Banbury to London commuter and Cherwell Rail Users Group chairman Chris Bates said morning services from Banbury were already crowded.
He said of extra seats: "It is welcome but to be expected."
And he is concerned whether the new 6.10pm London express service can make up for the loss of 6.10pm and 6.13pm services.
The firm said the ex-InterCity silver trains are popular as they have more leg room and a buffet bar.
But Mr Bates said: "They are both pretty full already. We strongly suspect that there will be overcrowding on that train.
"The 6.10pm will go from being the nicest one in the evening to the worst."
And he said the firm has to run a King's Sutton service to get into the capital at about 8.30am. The new 8.11am service gets in at 9.28am.
He said: "They have provided the right number of services but haven't supplied them when people want to travel. It is worse than it is currently."
Customer service director Jennifer Payne said: "Banbury is an important town to us at the heart of our network."
She said: "The new timetable reflects the issues that our customers said were important to them."
A spokesman added: "We have to balance the requirements of small stations like King's Sutton with our need to provide long direct trains from large stations like Banbury."

Sherrington: Texas Rangers need to go all in on Masahiro Tanaka
Catch SportsDay On Air twice per week on Fox Sports Southwest, when Dallas Morning News experts discuss hot sports topics from the Cowboys, Mavericks, Stars, Rangers, high schools and colleges (check our TV listings for air times). Here are some highlights from Thursday's episode featuring Chuck Carlton and Kevin Sherrington:
On how Derek Holland's injury affects the Rangers:
Sherrington: "Is Martin Perez ready to be the No. 3? I don't think so. I think this is why they really need to go all in on Masahiro Tanaka. Now that the Dodgers apparently have taken themselves out of the running by signing Clayton Kershaw to that huge contract, I think that the Yankees will be the prime target for that if not the Angels. I do think that the Rangers need to go all in on Tanaka."
Carlton: "With Holland, you see a ton of talent and maybe the quintessential left-hander whose a little goofy and a little out there, and now it's the dog is responsible for my knee injury. Unless the dog turns into Mister Ed and starts telling the real story, we'll never know. If it's micro fracture, it just makes you wonder if there was a longer term sort of injury with Holland. The key thing with the Rangers is still he was a talented guy that could go for 200 innings and give you some really strong starts. Where do you go now?"

The telecom industry is a jungle, and it just got a new 800-pound gorilla.
AT&T and DirecTV agreed to merge in a $48.5 billion deal that will create a nationwide giant in TV, wireless and Internet — a company so big it will rival the controversial combo that Comcast has proposed with Time Warner Cable.
Consumer advocates immediately blasted the AT&T-DirecTV deal, raising worries that a handful of behemoths controlling the nation's online and TV networks will jack up prices for consumers while skimping on service.
"The industry needs more competition, not more mergers," said John Bergmayer of Public Knowledge, an industry watchdog group. "The burden is on AT&T and DirecTV to show otherwise."
Comcast sparked antitrust concerns three months earlier with its $45 billion offer for Time Warner cable. Meanwhile, Softbank, the Japanese firm that owns Sprint, has made no secret about its appetite to acquire T-Mobile USA.
The mergers could likewise send competitors like Verizon, Cablevision and Charter Communications scrambling for dance partners, analysts said.
Ironically, however, insiders said the AT&T-DirecTV deal could end up greasing the wheels in Washington for the Comcast-TWC merger to get approved.
That's because the two merged entities, whose deals face scrutiny from the Justice Department and the Federal Communications Commission, can argue they'll be locked in brutal competition as they square off against each other to compete for pay-TV, wireless and online customers nationwide.
Both combos will be scrambling for dominance over content providers as they look to seize share in the fast-growing video-streaming business. Last month, AT&T entered a joint venture with the Chernin Group to invest in online video.
Some analysts question how much ground AT&T will gain online with the deal.
Still, the move will allow AT&T to add DirecTV's 20 million satellite-TV subscribers to the 5.7 million AT&T currently has for its U-Verse TV service, which currently spans 22 states.
The combined subscription base of 26 million customers would be second only to Comcast and TWC's, which boasts 30 million combined.
While satellite and cable TV are losing ground to Internet streaming, they'll remain a cash cow for years to come, analysts say.
AT&T on Sunday agreed to pay $95 a share for DirecTV, about 10 percent above DirecTV's closing stock price on Friday and about 30 percent higher than where the shares traded before word of the merger.
It's the biggest deal for AT&T since it tried to buy T-Mobile three years ago for $39 billion — a merger that got scuppered on antitrust concerns.

I was really impressed by the service. I did everything on email and phone and was very pleased with the help and guidance as well as the price. The bike came exactly as said and was professionally packaged. I really like the family operation and would recommend Ashcycles to anybody wanting to buy cycling goods

Rosie O' Donnell and Chelsea Handler Offend Little People of America
Rosie O'Donnell and Chelsea Handler have offended Little People of America with insensitive jokes and comments made on O'Donnell's talk show, "The Rosie Show."
"I'm loath to admit because I'm a little ashamed about it, but I'm going to say it anyway: I have a mild fear or anxiety around little people," O'Donnell said, beginning the discussion of little people.
She then bluntly asked Chelsea Handler if Handler had ever dated or slept with a little person, to which Handler jovially replied, "No, that would be child abuse."
O'Donnell found some truth in Handler's insensitive joke, responding, "Well that's half my issue! What the problem is for me is that I think … I can't put the things together … this is an adult person, but it's a little person … it's so hard for me."
Chelsea Handler said she loved little people, referring to the as "little nuggets" and adding that she likes them so much that when she sees them she can barely keep herself from tackling them.
Handler also implied that her sidekick Chuy, who is a little person, would not have a job if it wasn't for her, saying "who else is going to give that guy a job?"
She also said that having Chuy around was "like having a kid."
Leah Smith, Little People of America Public Relations VP sent open letters to both stars expressing LPA's offence at the perpetuation of negative and untrue stereotypes about little people.
LPA was particularly hurt that O'Donnell implied that there is something frightening about little people. "Rather than advocating for tolerance, understanding and acceptance, you promote stereotypes and fear-based ignorance," Smith wrote.
LPA also took offense at Handler and O'Donnell drawing comparisons between little people and children.
"We find it extremely offensive that you participated in a conversation that referred to [little people dating non-little people] as 'child abuse,' and that [Handler] made reference to little people being 'like having a child' or being 'little nuggets,'" Smith wrote.
"Any limits to our full inclusion in society stem from this exact stereotype that we are somehow child-like," he added.
LPA's letter does not call for a boycott of either show, nor does it even ask for an apology. Rather, the LPA letter invites both stars to engage in conversation with them, stating that they "would like to take this opportunity to start a conversation about acceptance of diversity."
O'Donnell and Handler have not yet responded to Little People of America.

The Son That Former NFL Player Rae Carruth Tried To Kill Turns 18, Still Suffering From Permanent Brain Damage
The former wide receiver, who plotted the murder of his ex, Cherica Adams, is scheduled to be released from prison soon.
It seems after weeks of inactivity, the NBA owners and players' union are ready to get serious about negotiating a new collective bargaining agreement.
The two sides sat down for negotiations Wednesday for just the second time since the NBA lockout took effect July 1. The top negotiating teams for both sides met at a Manhattan hotel to re-open talks at the request of NBA commissioner David Stern.
According to the Associated Press, the bargaining session included San Antonio Spurs owner and head of the labor relations committee Peter Holt, deputy commissioner Adam Silver and Stern on the owners' side. The players were represented at the meeting by union executive director Billy Hunter, union president and Los Angeles Lakers point guard Derek Fisher and attorney Ron Klempner.
It doesn't seem realistic that much ground would be made up in one meeting with the two sides being so far apart on critical issues such as revenue sharing, salary and salary cap. But they have to make up serious time if there is any hope of getting the issues resolved prior to the start of training camps in just over a month.
Most believe that at least part of the 2011–12 season will be lost due to the lockout while there is a distinct possibility of the entire season being wiped out. The interaction between the two sides so far lends little hope the lockout will end in time to start the season as scheduled. After meeting for the first time Aug. 1, the two sides set a plan to meet several times before the end of the month. It should be noted their first and only meeting since came on the final day of the month.

The ProjectReliance Rail is financing, designing, manufacturing and maintaining 626 Waratah carriages - consisting of 78, eight-car sets and two spare carriages - as part of the Public Private Partnership (PPP) with Sydney Trains.
Detailed design of the Waratah trains was completed in 2009 and delivery of the Waratah trains commenced in July 2011 and was completed in May 2014..
Reliance Rail is required to make 72 trains available to Sydney Trains for timetabled services each day until the end of the 30-year contract term.
The scope of this PPP project is broader than the delivery of the 626 carriages – the largest rolling stock order ever ordered by an Australian rail operator. It includes a contract to maintain the fleet, as well the associated design, construction and maintenance of a technologically advanced maintenance centre, and the provision of simulators for crew training. These were opened and operating in 2010.
The PPP contract term for fleet maintenance continues for 30 years after the delivery of the tenth-last train - until early 2044 and may at Sydney Trains' option, be extended for two additional periods each of five years.
For more information about the PPP Project, download the Summary of Contracts here.

A long life and vast works make fitting subjects for the epic-minded Hughes (The Shock of the New, etc.). Born in Aragon in 1746, Goya weathered the Peninsular Wars (1808–1814) in Spain and lived to the age of 82, when he died in self-imposed exile in France. Hughes denies the popular image of the artist as a die-hard iconoclast, painting court portraits while winking behind his patrons' backs. Staying close to the visual evidence, Hughes shows Goya was not above flattering his royal subjects (aggrandizing midget count Altamira), waxing patriotic (as in the famous Third of May) and taking commissions from the Bonapartes under the French occupation. In middle age he was struck deaf by an unidentifiable illness, at which point his pictures turned darker—a bullfighter gored before eager spectators, the inmates of a madhouse clamoring for respite. His Desastres de la guerra rendered the mute, gaping horror of guerrilla combat. Under a picture of refugees fleeing the French, he inscribed, "I saw it." Whether or not this much debated act of witness really happened, for Hughes it is Goya's urgent visual economy that "invented... the illusion of being there when dreadful things happen." Given his intimate understanding of the painter, one regrets that Hughes's diligent catalogues of the Caprichos and Pinturas Negras (among the 115 color and 100 b&w illustrations) often forgo in-depth analysis for textbook thoroughness. But he compellingly insists on Goya's prophetic genius, arguing that, for an age that has produced few great paintings in response to modern terrors, Goya's pictures anticipate disasters unheard of but yet to arrive. (Nov. 10)
Forecast: With a first printing of 75,000 and a first serial in Vanity Fair, the bet clearly is that readers will agree with Hughes's assessment. A new survey of Goya's oeuvre by former Kunsthalle Hamberg director Werner Hofmann, also titled Goya, is scheduled to arrive two weeks after Hughes book, and includes 253 color illustrations.

text: We leave Sept. 2...our departing flight isn't until 4:15pm. I am flying w/American, so I understand I can do the baggage check right at Pop about 3 hours before our flight leaves. Do they take you to the airport about 3 hours before your flight leaves? What I was thinking of doing for our departure day was just a relaxing morning at our resort (taking it easy), probably have a nice breakfast, a swim, take some last minute pics w/ DS13 by the big icons, pack up, take one last shower and get dressed for the trip back. So, I was wondering if asking for a late checkout, say 12:00 or 12:30 would be OK, or if the resort would charge extra. Normal checkout time is 11:00, I believe. What do you think? Is this doable if I were to ask for a late checkout?

In an interview to CNBC-TV18, YK Hamied, chairman and managing director of Cipla says, the company is launching an anti-malarial drug in India. "Today, being the World Malaria day, we are launching a new combination drug along with our partners who are based in Geneva called DNDI," he asserts.
In an interview to CNBC-TV18, YK Hamied, chairman and managing director of Cipla says, the company is launching an anti-malarial drug in India. "Today, being the World Malaria day, we are launching a new combination drug along with our partners who are based in Geneva called DNDI," he asserts.
He further says, this is a group for drugs for neglected disease. "Cipla has been working very closely with them for a number of years to develop not only products against newer drugs for malaria, but we are also working with them for newer drugs for pediatric aids. So, this is the whole basis of today's launch of the product that we are calling Mefliam Plus."
Below is an edited transcript of his interview on CNBC-TV. Also watch the accompanying videos.
Q: We understand Cipla has plans to launch a Malaria drug. Could you walk us through?
A: Cipla way back, at the time of the Second World War, built Cipla up on anti-malarial drugs. At that point in time, the leading drug that we had was Qinarsol. Since then, the whole malaria treatment has changed rapidly. Today, being the World Malaria day, we are launching a new combination drug along with our partners who are based in Geneva called DNDI.
This is a group for drugs for neglected disease. Cipla has been working very closely with them for a number of years to develop not only products against newer drugs for malaria, but we are also working with them for newer drugs for pediatric aids. So, this is the whole basis of today's launch of the product that we are calling Mefliam Plus.
Q: While there is definitely a humanitarian angle to this, is there a financial gain also for Cipla in this launch?
A: We are a business company. We are not a charitable institution, so there has to be some gain whether direct or indirect.
Q: Can you walk us through what you are expecting from this drug in terms of sales?
A: You must first understand the drug. The drug in question is essentially for resistant cases of malaria. The type of malaria that it targets is essentially in South East Asia. We are targeting this drug in essentially nine countries - Bangladesh, Burma, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, India, Malaysia. So, these are the countries where there are more and more cases of resistant malaria and we are therefore targeting this drug for South East Asia in partnership with DNDI.
Q: What could be the potential market size of this drug in the nine countries where you are planning to launch it and is there any competition from a similar kind of drug in the market?
A: There is no similar drug as yet in the market but people are free to market this drug. There is no monopoly. We never asked for exclusivity, so we don't have a monopoly on any drug. So, that has been Cipla's approach against monopoly. But, we will offer this particular drug at a very fair and affordable price not only in India but elsewhere in the world as well - South East Asia and perhaps even in Africa.
The big advantage of this drug is that it is very good against resistant malaria and it is also very good for pregnant women in the second and third trimester of pregnancy - not in the first trimester. This drug has been extensively tested all over. So far, 11000 patients have been treated with this drug successfully. I think we will be doing an immense service not only to the medical profession but also to the world by introducing this drug.
Q: Some ideas to what is the size of the market, in terms of million dollars or in terms of rupees?
A: Let's talk about the totality of the malaria world market. A minimum of about 200 million plus doses are required for malaria treatment all over the world. Last year Cipla supplied 45 million doses, that is roughly one fourth of all the drugs used in the world for malaria came from Cipla. Now, that in itself is a big achievement and this is now adding to the armaments against malaria. So we hope that Cipla will be a major contributor to the arena of drugs for Malaria in the years to come. This is not the only anti-malarial drug that we are targeting. We are targeting 2-3 other new anti-malaria drugs in the next year or so.
Q: Another important development in the Indian drug space has been the permission granted to Natco Pharma to manufacture a compulsively licensing drug, an anti-cancer drug. Is that a space Cipla is interested in and should we expect some requests from you or applications from you to the drug controller?
A: I think what is necessary is that the Indian government should take a major positive step forward and introduce a pragmatic compulsory licensing policy that means I do not have to apply to the drug control for permission, there should be an automatic license of right and we pay the patent holder a 4% royalty. Canada had this bill S91 which the Indian government should examine and I hope that people listening in will ask the government to follow the Canadian bill S91 which was in force from 1969 to 1992. If it was good enough for Canada during that period I sincerely believe that it is good enough for the developing world and the world to follow.
Q: Opposition to this comes not just from MNCs, it is coming from some of your domestic competitors?
A: I don't believe that. There are no domestic competitors; we work as a team and all national minded Indians should think the way I am thinking.
Q: Coming back to the malaria drug, could you give us some idea about the potential market size in the 9 countries?
A: It again depends on the registration. Right now the drug is already registered in Malaysia and we are hoping that the Malaysian government will purchase at least 10,00,00 packs from us in the near future. This is what is been indicted to us by DNDi itself. Then we will register the drug in various countries in South East Asia. I think you will see the potential of this drug within the next 2 or 3 years. It won't be automatic or overnight. But, I do believe that if Cipla today supplies 45 million anti-malarial dosages all over Africa, this could be another million or two doses in South East Asia alone.
Q: The ongoing debate on drug pricing is whether to have drug prices determined by market based pricing, the cheapest 3 drug makers or the costliest 3 drug makers, or to approach it from the cost based angle which is what a lot of NGOs and public interest organizations are demanding. Where would you lean?
A: My views are totally contrary to both the suggestions. My opinion is that the drugs that are sold under monopoly, where there is only one manufacturer, should be scrutinized and there should be price control on monopoly drugs, there should be price control on imported finished formulated drugs coming into India. That would really be a step forward to keep the price under control.
Where there is internal competition and 5-10 players are marketing the same drug, the competition only brings down prices and there are no controls that can bring down prices. So the government approach is not practical. I had also made a suggestion many years ago that we would give our technology for free to the public sector government companies if they wanted to market a product and they could fix the prices and then fall in line. Why don't they do that for essential drugs? They do it themselves and we will all fall in line but, they don't do that.

I wanted a super quick and easy baby quilt for a shower next week, and I remembered this technique for putting a pattern inside chenille. This was my first try at it, and I'm SO happy with the way it turned out! I laid out one layer of pink and the red-folded them in half, draw a half heart freehand and cut it out. Then I pulled out the pink heart and the red background leaving the red heart and pink background that nestled perfectly together. You don't even need to stitch them together! Smoothed them out between two other layers of pink, another layer of pink on top, then a pale purple on top and bottom for a total of 6 layers of flannel. I channel stitched and slashed every half inch.
This is REALLY heavy-will probably be better as a play mat/rug. Next time, I might go with fewer layers if I want it as a blanket. But honestly, I'm thinking I might make rugs for everyone for Christmas this year! I wish you could see the texture-it's so awesome!
This turned out about 38x38. Start out 4 inches bigger than you want because it'll shift even with pins and a walking foot!
This is after 2 rounds in the washer-dryer. I want to see it in 6 months!

London, Nov 30 (IANS) Actress Kate Winslet says she doesn't own a computer.
The actress – who has children Mia, 15, and Joe, 11, from her past marriages and Bear, 23 months with spouse Ned Rocknroll – is pleased to be "terrible" with technology and places restrictions on the gadgets that her children are allowed to use, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
She said: "I enjoy being terrible because it means I never have to get a computer. I don't have one. We have no social media in our home."
The concerned mother added: ""My daughter has only just been given an iPhone but there are big restrictions on that, she has to hand it in at night and it's switched off.
"Children have to have a childhood and I do worry that exposure to social media and all these devices could get in the way of them just knowing how to club a tree."

I ordered brakes for my Saab one afternoon and the next morning they were delivered. Even though I don't live too many states away from Parts Geek, it is still extraordinary service. Add to that the savings from the Saab dealer and no PA sales tax. I continue to be very satisfied with their parts and service.
Great service, communication, and prices. Would buy from again and recommend to potential buyers.

|Deviant Art
Name: Yoite. It's the name Yukimi gave him when he was first sent to live with him. Yoite sort of unintentionally reveals to Miharu that his original name is Sora (and that he does not consider himself to be that person).
Appearance: Yoite's appearance isn't particularly noteworthy - he's a pretty typical anime teenager (skinny, pale, effeminate face, etc.). The only really interesting thing is learned in a flashback of Yukimi's. Due to learning kira, Yoite's growth accelerated. Over the course of three days, he grew from a little kid to a the way he looks as a teenager in the present.
Age/Birthday: 16/the latter third of December. His age is a bit sad, honestly, because he's almost painfully young to be the powerful weapon of a ninja village. It's no wonder he has excess emotional issues - he's really young.
Family: He doesn't seem to have one. He lives with Yukimi, a fellow ninja, and he and Miharu latch onto each other, but for all intents and purposes he's alone in the world. It's revealed that he was an abused child, abandoned by his parents. The closest thing he has to family is Kairoushuu and Miharu.
Special Skills: Mastery of the forbidden art Kira.

Israel's Univerve Working to Commercialize Algae
August 29, 2012
new company from Tel Aviv, Israel, called Univerve is working to turn algae into a clean third-generation renewable fuel. Ohad Zuckerman, the CEO and co-founder of Univerve in 2009, is devising a systems process to commercialize his company. With 20 years' experience in the seed-breeding industry, Zuckerman believes that by applying the right stressors, the best algae for fuel will emerge.
"We are not working with transgenic crops, but are using traditional selection by putting the algae under stress, and then looking for certain traits, such as the robustness of the strains," says Zuckerman.
Using saline-tolerant algae means that algae feedstock plants can be grown in deserts where land is plentiful and not much else will grow. And the system uses only brackish water, which is undesirable for most other purposes.
"We have a pilot plant right now in the Rotem Industrial Park near Dimona," says Zuckerman. "By the end of 2012 we will have completed the pilot. This year we are doing streamlining, including extraction. By 2014 we will begin construction of the first project in Israel, and we have already started to exchange contracts with the owners of the land. As for projects outside of Israel, we have started working with American companies who have sent us their water for testing, and we are going to conduct the trials."
Univerve is seeking financing of $5 million, some of which will be earmarked for building the first commercial plant. The company's four-part system will focus on selecting the right strains of algae; effective cultivation and harvesting; and – with an American partner – extraction of the oil.

Making his first appearance since June 23, Koji Uehara retired Tampa Bay in order on only eight pitches.
He wasn't trying to dispose of the Rays that quickly. It just worked out that way.
"It's been a while, so I was thinking about how I would throw, and I felt good," Uehara said through his interpreter.
"I didn't try to finish in eight pitches. The opponents got quick at-bats."
Uehara seems fine with the idea of pitching in relief this season, though he signed last winter to be a starter.
"Obviously, the role is different, but I have done this before," he said. "No challenges. I'm not worried about it."
Asked if he feels more comfortable this spring, Uehara replied, "I know what to expect. It's definitely easier."
Here's what Brian Matusz said about the home run he surrendered to Sean Rodriguez:
"Initially, I thought it was going to be a fly ball to right field, but with 20-mph winds howling to right field, there's always a chance you get it up in that jet stream and it'll take it out. The pitch before, fastball down and in, I thought it was right where I wanted to put it, and the umpire (Bill Welke) called it a ball, which is going to happen. You're not going to get all your calls. But I thought I did a good job of throwing fastballs down and in on righties today and I ended up missing just a little bit over the plate because I didn't want to miss ball four down and in, and he was able to inside-out it a little bit and put it up in that jet stream. And that's going to happen. I'm not mad about it. I've just got to continue working hard."
Wilfrido Perez easily disposed of the Rays in the seventh inning. They still hold a 5-4 lead in the top of the eighth.
Rhyne Hughes is 0-for-2 with two strikeouts.

Corey Maggette dropped in 19 points on Friday for the Clippers.
BOSTON (AP), Feb. 2-- For most of the NBA's 60 years, Celtic pride has been about winning: 16 championships and three other appearances in the finals, forming a tradition of success that was the hallmark of the league.
The Celtics set a franchise record Friday night with their 14th consecutive loss, falling 100-89 to the Los Angeles Clippers.
"Any time you're playing somebody who is ready to set a record of any kind of futility ... you know they have a lot of pride,'' Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy said.
"They are going to be coming with everything they have. They're young, but they are going to play hard. No one wants to go down in any kind of record book.''
Elton Brand had 26 points, 19 rebounds and four blocks, and Cuttino Mobley added 20 points for the Clippers, who have won seven of their last eight. Tim Thomas scored 12 of his 17 points in the fourth quarter, five of them during a 7-0 stretch in which Los Angeles turned a 71-69 deficit into a 76-71 lead.
The Clippers never trailed after Thomas' free throws snapped a 71-all tie.
"Two weeks ago we were out of the playoffs and now we are in the seventh seed,'' Brand said. "We are peaking right now.''
Rajon Rondo, making his first career start, scored 23 points for the Celtics. Al Jefferson added 21 points and Delonte West had six points, 11 assists and a career-high 11 rebounds. Coach Doc Rivers said his young team had not given up.
The once-proud franchise has not won since beating Memphis on Jan. 5. The only thing the Celtics and Grizzlies are competing for these days is the top spot in the draft lottery and perhaps a chance to select Ohio State's Greg Oden or Texas' Kevin Durant.
"The plan is to stick together,'' Jefferson said. "We've got to stick together regardless of how bad it gets. We can't start turning on each other or pointing fingers at each other. The only reason we should be mad about anything right now is we should be mad about losing.''
The most decorated team in NBA history, the Celtics have won 16 championships but none since 1986 - by far the longest drought in franchise history.
Right now, they'd settle for a win.
In addition to their overall streak, they've lost a franchise-record 11 consecutive home games and are a league-worst 4-19 at home. Boston is 2-20 since Paul Pierce went out with a stress reaction in his left foot.
"It's just another loss that just keeps adding up,'' Boston forward Ryan Gomes said. "It's a tough challenge because you come into this locker room and it's the same result over the last 14 games. It's hard to keep high spirits because it's not working out the way we want it to.''
West hit a long jumper to cut the deficit to 83-79 with 5:46 left. But Mobley sank a 3-pointer and, after Gomes made one free throw, Thomas hit a 3 to give the Clippers a nine-point lead.
Notes: Brand was poked in the eye by Rondo in the third quarter but did not have to leave the game. ... The Celtics fell to 2-1 with Brian Scalabrine in the starting lineup. ... Pierce shot before the game and played one-on-one against Wally Szczerbiak, albeit not at full speed. Rivers said Pierce can put full pressure on his foot now and could return soon; there was no timetable for him to come back, though. ... The Celtics lost 13 in a row in 1993-94 and 1996-97. ... The Clippers are 9-3 since Sam Cassell returned from an eight-game absence with a left heel injury. ... The last time a Celtics player had a double-double without scoring 10 points was on April 6, 2003, when Antoine Walker had seven points, 10 rebounds and 14 assists vs. Washington.
