WBB: Carolina scores 100 in win over Charleston Southern
Posted December 16, 2013
Sophomore N'Dea Bryant scored a career-high 14 points to lead No. 15/14 North Carolina to a 100-49 victory over Charleston Southern on Saturday afternoon from Carmichael Arena.
North Carolina (8-2) received a balanced effort on both sides of the ball today with five double-digit scorers. Xylina McDaniel had a team-high 15 points on 6-of-7 shooting, while Bryant, Allisha Gray and Stephanie Mavunga each tossed in 14 points. Diamond DeShields added 10 points.
The Tar Heels also had nine different players come up with two or more steals, led by Latifah Coleman's five swipes. UNC also tied its season high with 11 blocks, including a career-high four from McDaniel.
Erin Bratcher scored 14 points to lead Charleston Southern (3-4). DJ Fowler had 12.
The Tar Heels came up with a season-high 25 steals, and converted 31 turnovers into 47 points in the run-away win over the Buccaneers.
Carolina showed little effects from a 10-day layoff for exams by racing out to a 10-0 lead in the opening four minutes. McDaniel fueled the quick start with the first five points of the game.
The Buccaneers drained a three-pointer to make it 10-3, but the Tar Heels scored the next 14 points, and led 24-3 after a Danielle Butts' jumper at the 11:54 mark.
CSU responded with nine-straight points and a 13-3 run got the visitors back into the game, but still trailed 27-16.
Hillary Summers later made baskets on three-straight possessions to put the Heels back up 43-24 with 3:04 left until halftime.
Mavunga's layup just before the halftime buzzer gave Carolina a 49-30 lead at intermission.
Three fouls in the first half slowed Gray in the opening 20 minutes, but she came out on fire in the second half scoring eight points in the first 4:28 to increase her clubs advantage to 61-30.
The lead never dipped below 29 points the rest of the game and grew to 51 points on a field goal by Hillary Fuller to make the final score 100-49.
Mavunga hauled in 11 rebounds to go with 14 points, giving her the sixth double-double of her freshman campaign. DeShields handed out a season-high seven assists.
Carolina shot 58.2 percent, its second-best shooting game of the year. The Tar Heels entered the game leading the nation in field goal defense, allowing opponents to shoot 30.1%. Charleston Southern shot 27.1 percent today on 16-of-59 field goals.
North Carolina heads to Myrtle Beach to play two games next week at the Myrtle Beach Convention Center. The Tar Heels will play New Orleans on Monday at 6:30 p.m., and No. 10 South Carolina on Wednesday at 7 p.m.

I was looking for the numerous methods of databases and when to use which one or the other
when i say databases i mean any method of saving state information.
These are really the only ways i know:
1) just a simple text file (which i assume is for small programs or even single line state info)
2) shelve and pickle (which seems also for small amounts of data) (and pickle to NOT be used with the net?)
3) JSON (which to be honest i dont really know the purpose, I have always used it to store data in a file that could manuelly be changed, and still be able to return it back to the program as an object)
4) sqlite3 (which i believe is just a lightweight MySql ?)
5) MySQLdb (which I if i remember correctly is outdated or wasnt planning on being ported to python3, i dont remember)
Are there any other methods? I know the sqlite3 and mysql ones would be used for large programs with a lot of data, but are there any more for small programs, that also dont require the inner knowledge of syntax of MySql?

Olmsted ends his Eastside career with a major splash
Published: Tuesday, November 12, 2013 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, November 11, 2013 at 11:26 p.m.
Eastside's Wesley Olmsted concluded his high school swimming career with a major splash on Saturday at the 2A state meet in Stuart.
The senior, who will be signing a swim scholarship to Stanford on Wednesday, won both the 100-yard freestyle (45.03) and the 100 backstroke (49.54), both in automatic All-American times.
He also teamed up with Lucas Zhou, Rosvel Bracho-Sanchez and Jeffrey Wu to place seventh in the 400 free relay.
"He had some pretty stiff competition in the 100 free and we talked about him taking the first 50 as fast as he could," said Rams coach Jon Allen. "We knew if he was leading by a body length after the 50 he could hold off the other two guys challenging him."
Earlier last week, Olmsted was one of 10 swimmers who got sick following the regional meet in Pensacola. Luckily, the illness only last 24-48 hours, so it didn't affect them at state.
In the backstroke, which Olmsted calls his "fun" event, he dominated, winning by almost two body lengths.
"He has really improved his underwaters," Allen said. "This is the first year in his swimming career that he has focused on backstroke and he showed he would be one of the best backstrokers out there if he wanted to."
Also stellar academically with a 5.0 GPA, Olmsted will continue to work hard with his club team, High Tide Aquatics, through the early part of the summer before leaving for California two weeks before school starts at Stanford.
"He took three recruiting trips this year and missed out on some practices," Allen said of Olmsted. "He has faced some adversity this year and really pulled through. We are very proud of what he has done. He is now going to start focusing on his club meets and try to finish up strong before he leaves for college."
Lindsey Trematerra, Oak Hall: The junior placed fourth in the 50 free (23.57) and fifth in the 100 free (51.71) at the Class 1A state meet, both All-American consideration times. Her 29 total points put the Eagles in 17th place out of 61 schools.
Kellen Snider, Fort White: The senior totaled 15 tackles with one interception, one fumble recovery, one fumble caused and one pass breakup on defense. Offensively, he rushed for 65 yards on 22 carries with two TDs and had two kickoff returns for 42 yards in the Indians' 35-21 win over Buchholz.

Gutter Cleaning and Installation Services in Spring Lake MI
Gutter Cleaning and Installation Services in Spring Lake MI
Spring Lake Gutter and Roofing Services - Serving Spring Lake and surrounding areas. Highly trusted for over 15 years!Call Now! (888) 340-0169
Besides keeping the gutter clean, they'll also assist you with repairs and replacements. In reality, you are not restricted by the gutter itself. Steel gutter is chiefly utilized in regions where there are heavy storms.
The dearth of gutter cleaning in Spring Lake MI can definitely cause some severe problems. While it seems to be a very complicated thing to work on, it can actually be a Do-It-Yourself task. You could also decide to earn a gutter cleaning scoop from a milk jug. Gutter cleaning is an easy remedy to protect against these difficulties. It should be included in the regular tasks that a person undertakes to maintain and care for a home. It can be an unpleasant or even dangerous job if you do not know what you are doing. Gutter cleaning by yourself may be quite extra challenging.
Gutters are often cleaned twice annually in many areas of the nation. They are designed to control the flow of the water around your home to protect it from a myriad of water-related problems. The seamless gutters aren't restricted to the specific architecture. Unclean gutters can lead to many problems.
When gutters aren't cleaned they may be full of leaves, dirt, twigs and other debris. They act as an important barrier between rainwater and other parts of your house. Blocked gutters can cause damage to your house, and this will be far more costly than a cleaning service appointment with the local gutter contractors. Actually, it's more complicated to install gutters larger than 5 in..
Using professional gutter cleaning services in Spring Lake MI is a good choice. It is recommended to people who cannot do the work themselves and to those who have extremely clogged gutters. The number of companies offering professional cleaning services is growing, so making the right choice can be challenging. Use some practical guidance and advice to find the right service for you.
Collect and compare quotes from different gutter cleaning service providers. Shopping around will allow you to find a good-quality service that is affordably priced. You can readily use popular online directories to find contractors and collect and compare quotes from them. You may also ask friends and neighbors to recommend some services. It is a good idea to collect and compare at least five quotes.
Ask how the gutter cleaning prices are determined and how much you can expect to pay. Usually, prices are based on the length of the gutter system. The longer it is, the more you will have to pay. Most service providers take into account the square footage of your house as well. The bigger your house is, the higher the cost of cleaning will be. The height of your home is important as well. One story houses are the least expensive to clean. You can expect to pay between $70 and $200 extra, if you have a three story home.
Find out what services are included in the gutter cleaning package. A standard package includes removal of leaves and debris from the gutters and downspouts, removal of the waste from the property and flushing the system. Check whether each of the two latter services is included. Ask if basic damage repair is included. You may consider dropping this service and saving.
Ensure that the gutter cleaning service provider in Spring Lake MI has business insurance. This is essential since the procedure poses some risks of serious injuries. Even if the workman performs the cleaning from the ground, they will still have to get up on a ladder to inspect the drain channels. A covered worker will not make an insurance claim against you in case of an accident while cleaning. Even if you have to pay more for an insured service, this will actually protect you from the risk of having to pay more times in case of an accident.
Finally, read reviews and ask for references. Even if a gutter cleaning service in Spring Lake MI looks good on paper, it may not be as perfect as advertised. That is why you must ensure that there is truth behind the claims of the provider.

A WORCESTER graduate wants people to know they can change the economy together by spreading a record-breaking message across the world.
In the wake of the Eurozone crisis, Constantinos Arkadiou (CORR) will be asking 30,000 people to take a picture of themselves holding a sign displaying the message 'I Am The Economy' to show what people power can do.
Originally from Cyprus, the advertising graduate from the University of Worcester returned to his country last year where there were fears of a Cypriot bank collapse and decided he wanted to do something to change people's minds about economies being run by just banks and corporations.
He said: "The project is a modern manifesto which aims to remind all of us that every single person - rather than banks and corporations alone – is a part of the economy, is able to change it and to fight for our own success.
"Even though most of the participants so far have been Cypriot, the issue we are addressing is relevant for people across the world."
Mr Arkadiou is now inviting people from Worcester and elsewhere in the UK to help him make the record-breaking 10,000 square metre collage.
Those that wish to take part can download the I Am The Economy sign from iamtheeconomy.net, and the resulting pictures can be shared on Facebook, twitter and Instagram using the hashtag #iamtheeconomy.

QNAP Partners with ZyXEL for Affordable 10G NAS Solutionsby Ganesh T S on 8/15/2013 4:45 PM EST

merikafyeah - Thursday, August 15, 2013 - linkNot my definition of "affordable". Still, how hard is it to make affordable 10Gbit switches and adapters? All I see everywhere is just 1 gigabit switches. 125MB/s is just not gonna cut it anymore, especially when SSDs max out at more than 4x that rate, and PCI-E drives even more than that.
The only affordable 10+Gbit solutions I know of are these Infiniband PCI-E adapters from IBM and Cisco you can get from eBay for $40-50, like the IBM 2945 Mellanox dual 10G PCI-E cards, or the Cisco 20Gb DDR HCA cards. The cards from Cisco purportedly have Windows drivers, so that's a plus, but they're single port cards so you'll need an Infiniband switch if you plan to connect more than two computers, which will cost about $150. Of course you'll also need to buy some Infiniband cables which cost about $15 for a 6ft cable.
You can also go for the slightly more affordable USB 3.0 bridge approach with something like this:
Daisy-chaining these seems possible so a USB 3.0 network is within reach, but 5Gbps is still a bottleneck for today's storage. Fortunately USB 3.1 was just finalized so consumer 10Gb interconnects may become more prevalent in a few years if we're so lucky. Thunderbolt is a terrible, terrible alternative and Intel should be ashamed for pushing costly, failure-prone active cables. Passive cables will always be more reliable and cost effective, in other words, better, than any active cable. I sincerely hope Thunderbolt is relegated to permanent niche-dom a la FireWire, where it belongs.

StealthX32 - Friday, August 16, 2013 - linkReally? HDBaseT in a datacenter? Reply
merikafyeah - Friday, August 16, 2013 - linkNo, HDBaseT is for everything except the datacenter, though in the future who knows? Bandwidth is scalable to 20Gbps, which is inline with most of today's datacenter interconnects but I digress.
HDBaseT is meant to replace HDMI / DisplayPort / DVI / VGA / Thunderbolt / etc.
It can also replace the power cord for all devices that draw 100W or less and carries ethernet packet data up to 100Mbps. It uses standard Cat5e / 6 / 7 cables up to 100m (over 300 ft) and even longer with repeaters.
There is literally no downside to HDBaseT other than the slow adoption rate into the consumer market, but with companies like Belkin, Epson, Onkyo, and Pioneer announcing intention to join the HDBaseT Alliance along with Samsung, Sony Pictures Entertainment, LG, and Valens Semiconductor, it's only a matter of time before adoption picks up. All we really need now is for the video card companies to join so that monitor manufacturers can follow and seal the deal. Reply
merikafyeah - Friday, August 16, 2013 - linkThis just in; It appears the future of datacenters will be Intel's MXC:
1.6 terabits per second over a SINGLE cable. Amazing stuff. Reply
surt - Monday, August 26, 2013 - linkYep, no downside to that big square connector, literally no one cares about form factor these days. Reply
Freakie - Friday, August 16, 2013 - linkI find it super annoying that 10G ethernet ports haven't become standard. There have been 10G ethernet ports for many years now but outside of only a few server boards from Intel, I don't think they've ever hit the market. I'm perfectly ready to switch to 10G myself, just bought a 100ft CAT7 cable last week in fact. I would absolutely love to see Broadwell systems to start shipping with 10G ethernet... but that's a pipe dream I'm sure. I hate using USB for high speed, and Thunderbolt is ridiculously expensive and not ideal for networking. Would be able to get a half decent NAS going for super cheap if 10G were actually implemented widespread.
Does anyone know why 10G isn't being utilized in the consumer world? It would be used if it was pushed out, it's ridiculous that we have had to wait this long for expensive Thunderbolt and latency filled USB solutions to reach good speeds. Is it interests groups from the USB and Thunderbolt organizations that have held it back or something? Reply
beginner99 - Friday, August 16, 2013 - linkIt isnt being used becasue most people do not need it. Even I can live without it and I have 3 2 TB green HDDs. Backup to USB 3 drives, rest of data is mostly for streaming were even wireless is good enough. Occasionally I copy some stuff onto my laptop and laptop hdd's aren't exactly fast. transfer is about 85 mb/s over 1G ethernet. And the green storage drive themselves can hardly push more than 90-100 mb/s. Reply
Kevin G - Friday, August 16, 2013 - linkThere is a 10G option for the C600 chipset. The catch is that few motherboard makers have taken advantage of it. Reply
ganeshts - Friday, August 16, 2013 - linkAs a home user, definitely very attractive to go the route you describe..
Enterprise / SMB customers want something available and ready to use off-the-shelf, need someone to go to for support in case anything breaks down etc. That is where companies like Synology, QNAP etc. are making the big bucks :) A Cisco 10G-enabled switch, by itself, costs $3000 (After rebates etc.), while ZyXEL and QNAP are bundling a similar switch and a 12-bay rackmount NAS (ready to use) for less than $1000 more. I guess that is where 'affordability' comes into play :) Reply
DanNeely - Friday, August 16, 2013 - linkPlease no, RJ45 is a horrible connector and needs to die. Reply
merikafyeah - Friday, August 16, 2013 - linkWhat's so bad about the connector? It goes in extremely easily and locks into place. You don't even need to see the connector as you can insert it by feel, which is extremely convenient in cramped spaces. You can also terminate your own connectors for quick custom length cables. Oh and it's extremely cheap (low cost) and highly reliable. Bandwidth can go up to 100Gbit for short runs with Cat7a cables and 40Gbit for longer runs. You can also get sleeved cables for snag-free runs. And did I mention how cheap it is?
There are virtually no downsides. Contrast this with HDMI. Now that's a cable (and standard) that needs to die. Basically inverse all the good things I just stated about RJ45 and you end up with HDMI. It's a genuinely horrible cable. Reply
Master_Sigma - Monday, August 26, 2013 - linkIts affordable for (repeat after me):
"Small and medium sized businesses (SMBs) and datacenter operators--"
Which are QNAP's primary customers. If you're looking for $40-$50 crap, look elsewhere. Reply
Theremings759 - Thursday, August 29, 2013 - linkMy Uncle Joshua got a six month old Mercedes R-Class Diesel just by part time work from a macbook. visit this website http://jobs63.com Reply
ludikraut - Friday, August 16, 2013 - linkSo I took a look at what Zyxel is offering and what this supposed package is offering. Interestingly enough, while they are shouting 10G, nothing is mentioned of actually including 10G transceivers and the cabling needed to connect the server to the switch. I suspect that at the touted price points all you're getting is a 10G capable switch, but would have to BYOT or shell out extra cash to get 10G interfaces.

Cueto fires complete game vs. Tribe for 13th win
Santiago's rare homer, fluky play in seventh boost right-hander
CLEVELAND -- In the wake an all-around sluggish showing in Monday's loss, Reds manager Bryan Price publicly criticized his team's focus and effort. On Tuesday night, his players responded emphatically.
Starting pitcher Johnny Cueto went the distance and Ramon Santiago belted a rare three-run homer to fuel Cincinnati's series-evening 9-2 win over the Indians. The club's long-dormant offense came alive with 15 hits -- including five extra-base knocks -- to snap a 10-game losing streak at Progressive Field and finish its latest road trip at 4-2.
"It was a tough loss yesterday, considering that we played so well in Florida," Price said. "It was just getting back to doing what we do. Certainly, the offensive output was big and gave Johnny a cushion. I couldn't be any happier to get Johnny Cueto out there with a cushion."
Cueto proved stellar on the mound once again, as he notched his 13th victory while allowing just two runs and five hits in his fourth complete-game effort of the season. After surrendering a run on two hits and a walk in the first inning, the right-hander retired 15 of the next 17 batters he faced en route to his 21st quality start in 24 outings this year.
"It took a little time for him to get in his groove," catcher Brayan Pena said. "But after that, when he gets going, he's unstoppable. He was asking for that baseball from the get-go. He knew how important it was for us to get this game, and he really stepped up to the challenge."
At one point in the seventh inning, Cueto looked as if his night would be done. He had allowed the first three Cleveland batters to reach base, capped by a run-scoring double hit by Yan Gomes, but he was able to work his way out of trouble thanks to a truly fluky play that began in right field.
When Gomes doubled, a wild pitch out of the Reds' bullpen from reliever Jumbo Diaz simultaneously made its way onto the field, leaving David Murphy -- who had pulled into third and received the stop sign from third-base coach Mike Sarbaugh -- unsure as to whether shortstop Zack Cozart actually had the ball following a relay throw. With the ball in Cozart's glove and the rogue ball rolling around in the shallow outfield, Murphy made a move toward home. At that point, Cozart fired the live ball to third for the out, and the Reds avoided a big inning.
"The timing like that was unusual," Price said. "I'm sure that's going to go down as one of those plays that we see in between innings for years to come. It's unfortunate, certainly, for their club that it happened. And it may have saved our bacon a little bit, because they were really starting to mount a rally there."
Cueto's stellar night on the mound was supported in a big way by Santiago's second-inning deep shot.
After Pena reached first on a wild-pitch strikeout and Kris Negron followed up with a single, the 34-year-old infielder jumped on a first-pitch fastball and lifted it into the right-field seats to give Cincinnati a comfortable 4-1 advantage. The homer was just the 29th of Santiago's career, and his first since Aug. 16, 2013, against Kansas City.
"It was a pretty good swing that I took," Santiago said. "Hit it really hard. Men in scoring position, I got the pitch I wanted to hit that inning."
The Reds tallied lone runs in the fourth and fifth innings -- the former on an infield single by Jay Bruce, the latter when Chris Heisey came home from third while Pena was caught stealing second -- to pull ahead, 6-1.
Bruce, who finished with three hits, led off the ninth inning with a solo shot to right field, and Negron added a two-run triple.
For the Reds, the win was undoubtedly shaped by the explosive offense and Diaz's quirky, if well-timed, mistake. But, ultimately, it was Cueto who once again lived up to his reputation as one of the National League's elite pitchers.
"I was being aggressive," Cueto said. "I'm always feeling like I want to finish the game and throw the complete game. I think that's how I was today."
"That's him. He's been great for us the entire season," Pena said. "Today, we needed him a lot -- especially the way we played yesterday that we weren't too proud of. Johnny was Johnny once again."

LONDON (Reuters) - Irish rock band U2 are to headline next year's Glastonbury Festival on the 40th anniversary of the world's biggest green field arts and music event.
The band are set to appear on June 25, the opening night of the festival for a one-off performance during their tour of the United States.
"The band is really looking forward to it," manager Paul McGuinness said on U2's website.
Glastonbury organizer Michael Eavis said he had been trying for years to persuade the group to perform and was delighted they had agreed to play their first festival since the 1980s.
"The 26-year-old rumor has finally come true," Eavis said on the festival's website.
"At last, the biggest band in the world are going to play the best festival in the world. Nothing could be better for our 40th anniversary party."
The three-day festival, which takes place on Eavis's farm in southwest England and attracts some 150,000 revelers, has already sold out.
What started as a hippy haven in 1970 and became famed for fans partying in mud because heavy rain often turned the site into a quagmire, has now become a highlight of Britain's musical calendar.
Last year, acts included Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen and British band Blur.

By Victor Salama
I'm excited to attend the Global Education and Skills Forum March 13-15th in Dubai and participate in a panel on entrepreneurship education and school reform. Hosted by GEMS Education, the conference is a great opportunity to meet and learn from leading international experts from education ministries, youth service agencies and global school management networks.
Entrepreneurship is a word on everyone's mind, whether you are in the United States or overseas. Yet entrepreneurship education programs are very rarely a part of standard secondary school curricula. How can organizations such as NFTE affect education policy and make policy makers understand the importance of developing youth capable of competing in today's marketplace? What types of business formation pathways can be created so that youth can move seamlessly from educational institutions to entrepreneurial opportunities, thus becoming possible employers instead of employees? Those are some of the topics on the agenda of the GESF conference, and I look forward to offering the NFTE program as a piece of the ever-challenging youth education and unemployment puzzle.
Victor Salama serves as NFTE's Vice President of Business & International Programs. Follow his updates on Twitter.

Progress from linking turns to launching jumps.
Easy to ride and easy on the wallet, the Burton Clash Snowboard offers progressive performance to help you get from linking turns to throwing 360s. Featuring a forgiving, yet stable Flat Top profile, the Clash is fun and easy to ride whether you're mastering the basics or upping your skills in the park.
The Flat Top profile is mostly flat for a stable feel and easy turn initiation, with rockered tips that lift the contact points off the snow so you don't catch an edge and slam when you're working on your turns. Although set back about an inch, the Clash retains a twin flex pattern, allowing you to try your hand at switch carving and tricks without sacrificing much in the way of performance.
The Super Fly core features a mix of hard and soft woods for the right blend of snap, strength, and forgiveness, and Dualzone EGD adds edge control by placing perpendicular strips of wood along the edges. The core also features Squeezebox Low core profiling, meaning that the board's ends, just after the binding inserts, are beefed up for better energy transfer, making turning a bit easier. Additionally, you'll find the board's easy-flexing biax fiberglass makes for effortless turn initiation without unwanted stiffness or rigidity getting in your way. Cruise Control edge tuning rounds off the edges so they're less grabby on snow and won't dig in when you're sliding boxes, and the extruded base is low-maintenance and easy to repair if you ding it up.
- Entry-level board for aspiring shredders
- Mostly flat profile with rockered tips for catch-free ride

Crawford's double picks up Dodgers in 10 innings
Haren strong in duel with Scherzer; Jansen surrenders lead in ninth
LOS ANGELES -- Dan Haren didn't get credit for the victory in his Dodger Stadium duel with the Tigers' Max Scherzer, but the Dodgers are looking to reap further benefits from their veteran right-hander's comeback.
"He's been sharp, what we've expected," manager Don Mattingly said after Haren allowed one run in six innings Tuesday night, and the Dodgers won in the bottom of the 10th, 3-2, on Carl Crawford's walk-off double.
Chone Figgins scored the winning run from first base when Detroit left fielder Rajai Davis couldn't cut off Crawford's hit with a dive. Crawford is 4-for-7 career against Tigers left-handed reliever Phil Coke.
Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen struck out reigning American League MVP Miguel Cabrera in the ninth but came an out short of his third save, as Victor Martinez tied it with a two-out RBI single to get the Tigers even at 2.
"That's a really tough lineup," Haren said.
He's 5-4 against them, having spent much of his career in the American League.
"A lot of those guys have had a lot of at-bats against me over the years," the three-time All-Star said.
Haren said he used mostly fastballs and cutters during in this outing, in which he allowed three hits and a walk and just one run, on a second-inning Austin Jackson homer that came off a split-fingered fastball.
"It wasn't too bad of a pitch," said Haren, adding that he didn't throw many more splits after that one. "With that lineup, anyone can get you."
Haren, who didn't allow an earned run in six innings for a victory in San Diego on April 2 in his Dodgers debut, said he didn't have the curveball he had against the Padres and didn't throw many against the Tigers. He worked Tuesday for the first time in a game with just-recalled catcher Tim Federowicz.
"He only caught me a couple of bullpens in Spring Training," Haren said. "I thought he did a real good job back there calling a game.
"I did my homework [on the Tigers] the past couple of days, and was able to execute that game plan with Fed."
Mattingly said Haren "has had good numbers" against Detroit, but he wasn't about to extend him past 96 pitches this early in the season.
"Not yet," the manager said. "I just felt like he did enough."
Haren said he "felt good, and strong, but I was getting a little bit fatigued at the end. It's the beginning of April, so we've got a long ways to go. I'm sure I'll be getting over 100 pitches soon."
He turned a 1-1 tie over to Chris Withrow, who pitched a scoreless seventh and stood to win it when pinch-hitter Justin Turner's short sacrifice fly scored Matt Kemp in the bottom of the inning for a 2-1 Dodgers lead.
But Martinez tied it in the ninth, and then pinch-hitter Figgins led off the bottom of the 10th by drawing a walk from reliever Joba Chamberlain (0-1). Enter Coke, who induced a Dee Gordon popout on a sacrifice bunt ahead of Crawford's at-bat.
"Against a lefty, throwing hard like that, it's always a battle," said Crawford, who went down the line to the opposite field. "I just wanted to stay short and get a good pitch to hit.
"When I saw the ball get by the outfielder, I knew Chone was quick enough to score."

Mixed Blood Theatre Opens ELEMENO PEA, 2/22
With panache and pedal-to-the-metal intensity, Molly Smith Metzler's Culture Clash comedy-of-bad-manners, ELEMENO PEA, squares off two sisters with a wealthy employer, unleashing a succession of secrets in a brutal dissection of significant moments and how they can launch or derail a life. Unfolding in real time, this hearty class system stew transitions fluidly from hilarity to poignancy and offers an amusing morality tale about the compromising consequences of money's seductive power. Mark Valdez (Learn to Be Latina) returns to Mixed Blood to direct the regional premiere, which opens February 22 and runs through March 17, 2013 at Mixed Blood's historic firehouse theatre on the West Bank, 1501 S. Fourth St. in Minneapolis.
In this 90-minute rapid-fire caustic social satire, set on Martha's Vineyard just after Labor Day, a high-end personal assistant (played by Grace Gealey) to the trophy wife of an ultra-rich (and often absent) New York ad man plans an end-of-summer sibs-fest. When her older sister-a social worker from blue collar Buffalo-comes to visit, lifestyles-and worlds-collide.
Laurine Price plays Michaela, the trophy wife, and Sun Mee Chomet plays Simone's older sister, Devon. Ron Menzel (Ethan) and Pedro Bayón (Jos-B) are also part of the keenly observed comedy. The creative team includes Mixed Blood veteran designers Garry Lennon (costumes), Dick Borgen (scenic), Laura Wilhelm (props), Karin Olson (lighting), and C. Andrew Mayer (sound).
"Elemeno Pea is definitive Mixed Blood - a 90-minute contemporary comedy tackling the stigmas of class, race, culture and disability with unrelenting sarcastic word play. Its ethics - intelligent and literate - align with Mixed Blood's world view beautifully," said Artistic Director Jack Reuler.

Saracens have decided to play their Heineken Cup quarter-final match against Ulster at Twickenham.
The competition's rules state that a team hosting a last eight game must provide at least a 15,000 capacity ground - 5,000 more than is available at Allianz Park.
The Men in Black's preferred choice was to extend temporarily the current seating at their new home but that option has been refused by the local council.
Club chairman Nigel Wray told the club website: "We look forward to playing this important match at the home of English rugby, a ground that many of our players know extremely well.
"It is absolutely clear that people want to see big teams playing big matches at big stadiums, and that is precisely what we will deliver at Twickenham.
"We did consider the option of playing this showpiece match at Allianz Park, our brand new home stadium in NW4, but, in consultation with local residents and our partners at the London Borough of Barnet, we have decided to settle at the new venue before applying to stage a one-off event with a larger capacity."
The crunch match will take place on Saturday April 6, with kick off at 6.30pm.

Did you know?
'Motswari' means 'to conserve and protect' in the local Setswana language.
There is a particular kind of peace you find in a wild place. It is the serenity that comes from being within the quiet whirr of a balanced and dynamic ecosystem.
The wholeness of wild land is naturally spiritual. And the owners and staff of Motswari Private Game Reserve place a premium on this. Motswari, in the Timbavati area near Hoedspruit, embodies an authentic, respectful approach to running a game lodge.
Its eco-friendliness and social responsibility is certified by both Green Globe and Fair Trade in Tourism.
The Geiger family has owned Motswari since 1981, when Paul Geiger fell in love with the land and its beauty.
At the main lodge within the 30 000ha Motswari, the emphasis is on connection with the bushveld. By the end of the first day, an undeniable feeling of peace and serenity will have begun to seep into you, unannounced.
The main lodge has 15 spacious, air-conditioned suites decorated with an understated elegant simplicity. Visitors seem to find this addictive – there is a very high rate of returns.
There is a pool for hot days, and a comprehensive library with an internet connection. The curio shop is filled with interesting objects, carefully chosen and produced locally.
There is no gym or spa, but there is an art gallery. And if you feel inspired, why not sculpt or paint or express yourself in some way? If you'd like to leave it with the lodge, there is a sculpture garden for that very purpose.
The décor in the suites brings together nature and art through the media of stone, bone and wood.
The field guides are passionate and knowledgeable about the area. Timbavati is a rich wildlife area where you'll find the Big Five. In fact, you may even be lucky enough to see a rare white lion.
Motswari is located within the greater Timbavati Nature Reserve, next to the Kruger National Park. And Timbavati is where the first white lions were seen in the 1970s. Every now and then, another is born to the lion prides in this area.

Australia is more the ''food thimble'' of Asia than food bowl, and poorly designed drought aid could lead to funds being diverted from crucial research to boost competitiveness and improve farm resilience to extreme weather, agriculture experts say.
Federal Agriculture Minister Barnaby Joyce said he expected a hard sell to win over cabinet colleagues when he presents his drought relief plan as soon as Tuesday.
Mike Stephens, the chairman of the Australian Institute of Agricultural Science and Technology, said it was ''crazy'' for Prime Minister Tony Abbott and Mr Joyce to describe the drought covering more than two-thirds of Queensland and half of Victoria as a natural disaster.
''Drought is part of doing business in Australia,'' he said. ''There's a major drought somewhere in Australia one year in three.''
Mr Stephens said he had great sympathy for farmers doing it tough, having managed a large sheep property near Bendigo during the major drought in the early 1980s. Even so, poorly designed farm aid would mean ''we prop up farms that have no future'', spending less on research and hurting the whole of agriculture.
Australia's food export prospects were often over-hyped, he said.
''If we increase agricultural production fivefold, we would feed 3 per cent of Asia.''
Linda Botterill, a professor in public policy at the University of Canberra, said the government ran the risk of repeating policy errors made in earlier dry spells.
''If you only focus on the disaster response, farmers don't prepare,'' Professor Botterill said. ''You get people who are marginal at best when it rains and who get bailed out when it doesn't.''
While retaining the former exceptional circumstances support would be helpful, Mr Joyce said it cost more than $1 billion for the drought year of 2007-08.
''We, as a nation, can't afford it any more,'' he said.
He declined to repeat his call, made during last weekend's tour of three regions of NSW and Queensland with the Prime Minister, for an increase in low interest rate loans to $700 million from $420 million.
A key push will be to expand access to the Transitional Farm Family Payment scheme, paid at the Newstart Allowance rate.
''You have to deal with the immediate requirements of the house, to maintain the dignity'' and help the family replan, Mr Joyce said.
Mr Stephens said farmers needed to prepare for Australia's changing climate, making the natural variability even more erratic and less predictable.
A farmer in an area with an average rainfall of 600 millimetres should learn from good farmers in regions with 500 millimetres as ''that's the climate you're going to get in 15 years'' for many areas that relied on winter rain, Mr Stephens said.

SAINT LEO, Fla. – The Saint Leo University Director of Athletics Francis X. Reidy has announced the appointment of Tommy Baker as the new head coach for the Saint Leo women's golf program. Baker, a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Pembroke, makes his way to Saint Leo after serving as the head men's and women's golf coach at Coker College in Hartsville, S.C.
"I am extremely honored and excited to be joining the Saint Leo family," said Baker. "I am very excited about the future of Saint Leo women's golf. The program has established itself as a regional power and I feel they are on the verge of bursting onto the national scene."
Under Baker's tutelage at Coker, the women's golf program was transformed into a regional competitor. During the 2012-13 season alone, the Cobras had three top-5 finishes and they completed eight of nine events in the top-15. In addition to the women's success, Baker guided his men's program to 12 total tournament victories. The men's team also captured the 2012 Conference Carolinas Championship.
"We are excited to add Tommy Baker to our staff and the leadership he brings to our women's program," said Athletic Director Francis X. Reidy. "His accomplishments at his previous positions on and off the golf course are a great fit for our athletic mission and university values."
In his five years with the Cobras, Baker helped to produce over 70 Conference Carolinas Presidential Honor Roll Recipients, 32 All-Tournament Team Selections, 17 All-Conference Team Selections, 11 team tournament victories, and 10 individual medalist honors. In addition, he led six Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA) All-Region Selections, two GCAA All-Freshman Team selections, one Conference Carolinas Player of the Year, one Conference Carolinas Freshman of the Year, and one PING First Team All-America selection.
Along with numerous awards, Baker's teams spent 29 consecutive weeks ranked in the Golf World / Nike Coaches' Poll in 2012-13. He also led the Cobras to six NCAA Regional Appearances and one NCAA National Championship appearance. In 2012, his women's golf team also won the Conference Carolinas Team Sportsmanship Award. Adding to his resume, Baker was named the Conference Carolinas Coach of the year in 2009.
Prior to his success with the Cobras, Baker was an assistant men's and women's golf coach at his alma mater, UNC Pembroke, for two years.
As a member of the UNC Pembroke golf team from 2002-06, Baker was a four-time letterman as well as a four-time Peach Belt Conference Honor Roll Selection. He received a B.S. with honors in Exercise in Sport Science as well as his Masters in Sports Administration.
The Fayetteville, N.C. native will serve Saint Leo as the fourth head women's golf coach since the program's inception in 2002.

More recently, Civic was the first mass market hybrid vehicle. And, today, the Civic is the only vehicle in the world with conventional gasoline, gas-electric hybrid, diesel and natural gas powertrains. In short, Civic is a microcosm of Honda's effort to use technology to create new value. Because you cannot define an environmentally friendly car only by the numbers. It must meet the needs of the customer in other areas... and that is certainly true with Civic, the industry leader in small car safety.
Some have argued that you can't achieve top rank fuel efficiency and top rank safety in the same package. But the 2001 Civic - that's the last generation - was the first small car to earn the federal government's highest crash test rating. And the new Civic was the first small car to earn the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety "Gold - Best Pick" for its performance in frontal and side impact crash testing.
Based on Honda's Safety for Everyone initiative, the new Civic incorporates a long list of standard safety features - including Honda's Advanced Compatibility Engineering body for enhanced compatibility with other vehicles. None of this was easily achieved. To offset the increased weight associated with these features, our engineers employed a number of technologies including lighter and more rigid high strength steel in 50% of the body. This demonstrates how both safety and fuel efficiency were fundamental goals for this vehicle.
Of course, if you talk to most of our customers, you won't hear about safety, or even fuel efficiency. They'll talk about design, comfort, handling, performance and other characteristics that make their car fun to drive and fun to use. And Civic has that, too. Most vehicles in Civic's competitive set use engines in the 2.0 to 2.4-liter range. But Civic's 1.8 liter engine has the performance of a 2-liter engine, with the fuel efficiency of a conventional 1.5-liter engine. Based on this sort of accomplishment, Civic was the consensus "car of the year" for 2006. That's the point... Civic is an "and" car. Clean and safe and fun.
You would expect a car that creates new value to sell well... and you would be right. Civic sales are up 17 percent over last year. In fact, our inventory is much lower than we're comfortable with. And, while I don't have anything to announce today... we're going to have to do something about this situation down the road.
But this story takes me back to where I started today... talking about the importance of technology in creating vehicles that satisfy both our customer and society. And, in the process, helps a smaller company like Honda both compete in the flat world of the auto industry... and make an important contribution to the round world of the global environment.
You know... it's impossible to come to Traverse City and not appreciate the environment. It is beautiful up here. Maybe this would be a good spot to hold an industry summit on the environment! As an industry, we can work together... or we can view it as a competition. Either way, the goal should be the same. To meet the environmental challenge, even as we meet the challenge of satisfying our customers. Thank you. And I look forward to your questions.
