Top 20 College Football Games: Week 5

12-8. When picking college games straight up, that kind of record is pretty porous. Yet, that's the record I posted last week it what was an absolutely horrid week of picking games. I went 5-11 picking the NFL and 12-8 in college. Pitiful.

But here I am, still picking games with a 56-24 overall record on the season. Take these with a grain of salt:

1. No. 25 Baylor (3-0) at No. 9 West Virginia (3-0)
Time/TV: 11 a.m. Saturday, FX
Last game: Baylor 47, La-Monroe 42; West Virginia 31, Maryland 42
Last meeting/series: This is the first meeting between the two programs.
Analysis: West Virginia is making their Big 12 debut and it should be one of the more entertaining games of the weekend. Baylor isn't as explosive without Robert Griffin, but the Bears still aren't lacking on the offensive side of the ball. Nick Florence has the offense clicking once again. However, West Virginia QB Geno Smith is seeing a RG3 like rise in both draft stock and Heisman hype. Smith has been stellar so far, and I trust West Virginia to make more stops than Baylor. One thing Big 12 schools that visit the Mountaineers at home this season will find out is that Morgantown is one of the best game-day atmospheres in all of college football.
Prediction: West Virginia 48, Baylor 35

2. No. 12 Texas (3-0) at Oklahoma State (2-1)
Time/TV: 7:50 p.m. Saturday, FOX
Last game: Texas 66, Ole Miss 31; Oklahoma State 65, La-Lafayette 24
Last meeting/series: Oklahoma State 38, Texas 26 (2011); Texas leads series 22-4.
Analysis: This is the first time Texas has been tested this season. It's the first time the Longhorns can prove they're worthy of their ranking. After having back-to-back disappointing seasons, the Longhorns have much to prove. The Longhorns are supposed to have a dominant defense, but Ole Miss was actually able to poke some holes in it at times. That's not good news when headed to Stillwater to face the always imaginative Oklahoma State offense. The Cowboys had a letdown against Arizona, but have otherwise been impressive. The Longhorns do get a shot at breaking into first-time Cowboys starter J.W. Walsh, who is an elite athlete at the QB position. I'm personally betting on Oklahoma State to pull the upset here. I'm not yet ready to believe the Longhorns are ready to start winning games of this magnitude once again.
Prediction: Oklahoma State 32, Texas 27

3. No. 14 Ohio State (4-0) at No. 20 Michigan State (3-1)
Time/TV: 3:30 p.m. Saturday, ABC
Last game: Ohio State 29, UAB 15; Michigan State 23, Eastern Michigan 7
Last meeting/series: Michigan State 10, Ohio State 7 (2011); Ohio State leads series 27-12.
Analysis: Perhaps no two teams in the Big Ten better represent how poor the quality of play in the conference has been this season than Ohio State and Michigan State. These are two teams many expected to be the class of the conference, and the problem is they still might very well be. Ohio State is undefeated, but has been unimpressive in wins against UCF, Cal and UAB. Michigan State can't score with regularity with RB Le'Veon Bell being the only offensive threat the Spartans possess. Both teams will likely struggle to put many points on the board, but it's Bell and a home crowd that gives Michigan State a slight edge.
Prediction: Michigan State 20, Ohio State 19

4. No. 18 Oregon State (2-0) at Arizona (3-1)
Time/TV: 10 p.m. Saturday, Pac-12 Network
Last game: Oregon State 27, UCLA 20; Oregon 49, Arizona 0
Last meeting/series: Oregon State 37, Arizona 27 (2011); Arizona leads series 21-13-1.
Analysis: Oregon State is the most surprising team in the country to me. I thought the Beavers would be battling to be one of the worst teams in the Pac-12. Instead, the Beavers are in the top 25 and looking impressive, despite having the youngest team in the conference. Their wins against Wisconsin and UCLA have Mike Reilly as an early favorite for Coach of the Year. It makes picking a game like this one difficult. Usually, it's pretty easy to go with the home team here, but Arizona is reeling against a 49-0 loss to Oregon. The Beavers have been pretty impressive defensively, so it won't be surprising if the Wildcats struggle to put points on the board for a second straight week. Not to mention, Oregon State has won 11 of the last 13 meetings with Arizona.
Prediction: Oregon State 24, Arizona 17

5. Wisconsin (3-1) at No. 22 Nebraska (3-1)
Time/TV: 8 p.m. Saturday, ABC
Last game: Wisconsin 37, UTEP 26; Nebraska 73, Idaho State 7
Last meeting/series: Wisconsin 48, Nebraska 17 (2011); The series is tied 3-3.
Analysis: Wisconsin is the most disappointing team in the Big Ten. The Badgers were the favorites to repeat as conference champions, but is yet to turn in an impressive performance this season. They barely picked up wins against Northern Iowa, Utah State and UTEP and lost to Oregon State. The offense has been completely unimpressive, ranking 102nd in the nation in points scored and 110th in total yards. Not to mention, Montee Ball is nicked up, but is expected to play against Nebraska. The Cornhuskers suffered a humbling defeat against UCLA, but have otherwise taken care of business. They're one of the least disappointing teams in a disappointing conference so far this season. I'll take them to beat Wisconsin rather comfortably.
Prediction: Nebraska 32, Wisconsin 20

6. No. 4 Florida State (4-0) at South Florida (2-2)
Time/TV: 6 p.m. Saturday, ESPN
Last game: Florida State 49, Clemson 37; Ball State 31, South Florida 27
Last meeting/series: South Florida 17, Florida State 7 (2009); South Florida leads series 1-0.
Analysis: This game ranks this high because I'm putting Florida State on upset alert. It has all the makings of an upset. Florida State is on top of the world with a lot of hype surrounding it after a win against Clemson. Meanwhile, South Florida was just nipped by mid-major Ball State and has lost its last two games. The Bulls have the pieces to give Florida State trouble and I think they will until the fourth quarter. I don't have the gall to call for an upset, though.
Prediction: Florida State 31, South Florida 23

7. Tennessee (3-1) at No. 5. Georgia (4-0)
Time/TV: 3:30 p.m. Saturday, CBS
Last game: Tennessee 47, Akron 26; Georgia 48, Vanderbilt 3
Last meeting/series: Georgia 20, Tennessee 12 (2011); Tennessee leads series 20-18-2.
Analysis: Georgia has been one of the most impressive teams in the country so far. The Bulldogs look like actual challengers to Alabama's and LSU's reigns atop the SEC, playing impressively on both sides of the ball. I do expect Tyler Bray and the Tennessee passing game to do some damage against the Bulldogs, but I also expect Georgia OLB Jarvis Jones to make more than a handful of big plays to put the Bulldogs over in the end.
Prediction: Georgia 35, Tennessee 24

8. Arkansas (1-3) at Texas A&M (2-1)
Time/TV: 12:21 p.m. Saturday, SEC Network
Last game: Rutgers 35, Arkansas 26; Texas A&M 70, South Carolina State 14
Last meeting/series: Arkansas 42, Texas A&M 38 (2011); Arkansas leads series 41-23-3.
Analysis: Arkansas is undoubtedly the most disappointing team in the SEC and maybe the country. The Hogs have been pitiful this season and are going to be lucky to make a bowl game at this point. Texas A&M probably should have beaten Florida, but couldn't hang on to a lead in the second half. The Aggies have been impressive in their two other games against lesser opponents, though. Arkansas can't seem to stop anyone and Texas A&M's offense is really rolling at this point with a defense that was surprising against Florida. As long as they don't have any second half letdowns again, the Aggies should pick up their first SEC win. Second half letdowns are a trend for this team right now, though.
Prediction: Texas A&M 42, Arkansas 38

9. No. 2 Oregon (4-0) at Washington State (2-2)
Time/TV: 10:30 p.m. Saturday, ESPN2
Last game: Oregon 49, Arizona 0; Colorado 35, Washington State 34
Last meeting/series: Oregon 43, Washington State 28 (2011); Oregon leads series 44-33-6.
Analysis: Oregon proved it belonged in the conversation of the nation's elite teams with its 49-0 domination of Arizona. Meanwhile, Washington State showed Mike Leach still doesn't coach defense in a loss to Colorado. If it wasn't for that, Colorado might be headed for a winless season. Instead, Washington State might be dubbed the worst team in the Pac-12 once again. This won't be close, but any time Leach is involved the game gains a little luster.
Prediction: Oregon 55, Washington State 10

10. Ole Miss (3-1) at No. 1 Alabama (4-0)
Time/TV: 9:15 p.m. Saturday, ESPN
Last game: Ole Miss 39, Tulane 0; Alabama 40, Florida Atlantic 7
Last meeting/series: Alabama 52, Ole Miss 7 (2011); Alabama leads series 45-9-2.
Analysis: Is there a more lopsided rivalry in the SEC? Alabama has lost to Ole Miss just nine times in a rivalry that dates back to 1894. The Rebels last win in the rivalry was in 2003, 43-28. Other than last season, the games have been pretty competitive since 2003, though. But Ole Miss is badly overmatched by the Tide. The talent levels aren't even similar.
Prediction: Alabama 56, Ole Miss 10

11. Minnesota (4-0) at Iowa (2-2)
Time/TV: Noon Saturday, ESPN2
Last game: Minnesota 17, Syracuse 10; Central Michigan 32, Iowa 31
Last meeting/series: Minnesota 22, Iowa 21 (2011); Minnesota leads series 61-42-2.
Analysis: The Floyd of Rosedale is once again on the line. This is a historic rivalry that typically produces some very close games. Iowa is once again losing games it shouldn't be losing and even the Hawkeyes' wins have been closer than expected. Minnesota is one of the three undefeated teams left in the Big Ten and could set up a showdown of undefeated teams against Northwestern next week with a win against Iowa. The Gophers have clipped the Hawkeyes the last two years, but those games have been at TCF Bank Stadium. Maybe Iowa can begin to turn its season around this week.
Prediction: Iowa 24, Minnesota 23

12. NC State (3-1) at Miami (3-1)
Time/TV: Noon Saturday, ESPNU
Last game: NC State 52, Citadel 14; Miami 42, Georgia Tech 36
Last meeting/series: NC State 38, Miami 28 (2008); NC State leads series 5-7-1.
Analysis: I must give credit where credit is due. The Hurricanes were very impressive in last week's win against Georgia Tech. NC State is yet to impress me this season. Both of these teams have to see this one as a potential trap game, though, with big games looming next week. NC State plays Florida State while Miami is preparing for Notre Dame. But, don't expect either to look past this week. This is a very important game for both teams in regards to their bowl eligibility. Like I said already, the Canes have the more impressive resume of the two. Miami is quietly improving and could be ready to make a lot of noise in the ACC sooner than any of us thought.
Prediction: Miami 31, NC State 20

13. No. 17 Clemson (3-1) at Boston College (1-2)
Time/TV: 3:30 p.m. Saturday, ESPN
Last game: Florida State 49, Clemson 37; Northwestern 22, Boston College 13
Last meeting/series: Clemson 36, Boston College 14 (2011); Clemson 10-9-2.
Analysis: This game will be telling of Clemson's resilliency. It seems like last season when the Tigers lost one game they lost focus for about a month and struggled. But they were a young team, so maybe experience will help. The Tigers really have to get better defensively, though. Boston College should provide a good test for them to improve in both of those areas.
Prediction: Clemson 48, Boston College 20

14. No. 15 TCU (3-0) at SMU (1-2)
Time/TV: 7 p.m. Saturday, Fox Sports affiliates
Last game: TCU 27, Virginia 7; Texas A&M 48, SMU 3
Last meeting/series: SMU 40, TCU 33 (2011); TCU leads series 44-40-7.
Analysis: The Battle for the Iron Skillet is one of the more illustrious rivalries in the state of Texas. These two have played all but six years since their first meeting in 1915. It's a rivalry, however, that has been dominated by TCU since SMU returned from the death penalty in 1989. The Frogs have won 10 of the last 12 meetings, although SMU pulled off one of the bigger upsets in recent memory for the program last season. But SMU has taken a step or two back this season with Garrett Gilbert -- a Texas transfer -- at QB. Gilbert is one of the most prolific passers in Texas high school history, but hasn't fared well at the college level. TCU isn't going to be a team easy to breakthrough against, either. The Frogs should make this a long day for Gilbert and the SMU offense. The SMU defense will likely have a tough go of it as well for that matter.
Prediction: TCU 42, SMU 14

15. Texas Tech (3-0) at Iowa State (3-0)
Time/TV: 7 p.m. Saturday, Fox College Sports
Last game: Texas Tech 49, New Mexico 14; Iowa State 37, Western Illinois 3
Last meeting/series: Iowa State 41, Texas Tech 7 (2011); Texas Tech leads series 7-3.
Analysis: Iowa State is often overlooked in the Big 12 more than any other team in the conference. But the Cyclones are incredibly well coached by Paul Rhoads. They've also beaten the Red Raiders in back-to-back seasons. Tech has gotten off to poor starts in both of those losses, but appears to be playing much better so far this season. The Red Raiders need to win this one because they begin a brutal five week stretch next week. Their next five opponents are Oklahoma, West Virginia, TCU, Kansas State and Texas. Nasty.
Prediction: Texas Tech 33, Iowa State 29

16. Penn State (2-2) at Illinois (2-2)
Time/TV: Noon Saturday, ESPN
Last game: Penn State 24, Temple 13; Louisiana Tech 52, Illinois 24
Last meeting/series: Penn State 10, Illinois 7 (2011); Penn State leads series 15-4.
Analysis: Penn State has now won back-to-back games, while Illinois is coming off a brutal loss against Louisiana Tech. The Nittany Lions have been impressive on defense as expected, but the offense has found a playmaker in sophomore receiver Allen Robinson. Illinois has been disappointing thus far and I expect the Illini to struggle scoring and containing Robinson.
Prediction: Penn State 20, Illinois 13

17. Indiana (2-1) at Northwestern (4-0)
Time/TV: Noon Saturday, Big Ten Network
Last game: Ball State 41, Indiana 39; Northwestern 38, South Dakota 7
Last meeting: Northwestern 59, Indiana 38 (2011); Northwestern leads series 45-34-1.
Analysis: I mentioned it above, but who would have thought Northwestern and Minnesota might possibly meet next week with both having spotless records? I did predict Minnesota to lose to Iowa, but I fully expect Northwestern to be undefeated after this week. Junior RB Venric Mark has been a pleasant surprise for the Wildcats and leads a running game that ranks 27th in the nation. Indiana's offense has been impressive in its own right, but against the likes of Indiana State, Massachusetts and Ball State, which upset the Hoosiers two weeks ago. Northwestern is a bigger test than Ball State.
Prediction: Northwestern 37, Indiana 24

18. UCLA (3-1) at Colorado (1-3)
Time/TV: 6 p.m. Saturday, Pac-12 Network
Last game: Oregon State 27, UCLA 20; Colorado 35, Washington State 34
Last meeting/series: UCLA 45, Colorado 6 (2011); UCLA leads series 5-2.
Analysis: Colorado finally got a win this season with an comeback upset of Washington State. It's never good when a victory against Washington State is considered an upset, though. The Buffaloes could build off that victory, but UCLA isn't the right opponent for that to happen against. The Bruins were victim to an upset against Oregon State, but I maintain this is one of the top 25 teams in the country. UCLA has playmakers on both sides of the ball who are finally playing up to their potential. Jim Mora Jr. is also a Coach of the Year candidate.
Prediction: UCLA 38, Colorado 21

19. Missouri (2-2) at UCF (2-1)
Time/TV: Noon Saturday, FSN affiliates
Last game: South Carolina 31, Missouri 10; UCF 33, FIU 20
Last meeeting/series: This is the first meeting between the two programs.
Analysis: Missouri really needs a win to boost its confidence. The Tigers haven't faired well in either of their SEC games and have Vanderbilt coming to town next week followed by Alabama. The wins have to come now or the Tigers are going to struggle to get bowl eligible. UCF game Ohio State a challenge and the Golden Knights will likely give Missouri a scare as well. As for an upset, the Tigers better hope not.
Prediction: Missouri 30, UCF 24

20. Louisiana Tech (3-0) at Virginia (2-2)
Time/TV: 3:30 p.m. Saturday, espn3.com
Last game: Louisiana Tech 52, Illinois 24; TCU 27, Virginia 7
Last meeting/series: This is the first meeting between the two programs.
Analysis: Louisiana Tech is putting a lot of points on the board, averaging 54.7 per game while playing three FBS opponents. Virginia has the best defense the Bulldogs have seen this season, but the Cavaliers have got to start playing better offensively. La. Tech's defense is far from spectacular so the opportunity to put some points on the board is there for the Cavs, but I'm not sure they're ready to match the offensive prowess of the Bulldogs. Louisiana Tech's offense is impressive to watch. Senior QB Colby Cameron manages the offense extremely well, but the freshman RB tandem of Tevin King and Kenneth Dixon show the most promise. La. Tech is going to make noise as a mid-major for the next few years.
Prediction: Louisiana Tech 34, Virginia 30

New insights on control of pituitary hormone outside of brain has implications for breast cancer

ScienceDaily (Sep. 30, 2012) ? The hormone prolactin is produced by the pituitary gland in the brain and then travels via the bloodstream to cells throughout the body, where it exerts multiple reproductive and metabolic effects, most notably on the breast where it is the master regulator of lactation. In recent years researchers have found that prolactin is also produced by some tissues outside the brain, however little is known about the functions of extra-pituitary prolactin or how its production is regulated in these tissues.

Now, the laboratory of Lewis A. Chodosh, MD, PhD, chair of the Department of Cancer Biology at the Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, reports in Genes & Development that activation of the PI3K-Akt oncogenic signaling pathway in the mammary glands of mice rapidly induces cells in the breast itself to produce prolactin. This, in turn, triggers Stat5 activation, mammary epithelial differentiation and milk production in virgin mice within a matter of hours.

"Remarkably, these changes occur in the absence of any of the complex hormonal changes or developmental programs that normally accompany pregnancy" explains Chodosh.

Consistent with a physiological role for prolactin outside of the brain, the Penn team found that mice bearing mutant Akt genes fail to activate Stat5 or initiate lactation when they give birth due to an inability to synthesize and secrete prolactin in the mammary gland, despite normal levels of circulating prolactin in the blood.

These findings provide the first demonstration that the synthesis and secretion of mammary gland prolactin is regulated by PI3K-Akt signaling and identify a physiological function for extra-pituitary prolactin during a critical developmental stage that is essential for the survival of mammalian offspring.

What's more, prolactin has long been thought to play a role in human breast cancer, however this has typically been assumed to be due to circulating prolactin produced by the pituitary. Since the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway is commonly activated in human cancers, this new finding suggests the important possibility that prolactin produced by the breast itself may play a role in breast cancer. In fact, mammary prolactin has been detected in some human breast cancers. As such, investigators have proposed that prolactin produced by the mammary gland -- rather than by the pituitary -- may play a direct role in the development of breast cancer, for example by providing pro-growth or pro-survival signals to cancer cells in the breast. Accordingly, anti-cancer drugs aimed at blocking the effects of prolactin are currently under development.

"Since the PI3K-Akt pathway is one of the most commonly activated oncogenic pathways in human cancer, its identification as an upstream regulator of prolactin production in the mammary gland has intriguing potential implications for understanding the pathology of human breast cancer and as well as improving its treatment," notes Chodosh.

Scent of Danger: Are There Toxic Ingredients in Perfumes and Colognes?

perfume sprayUNNATURAL ESSENCES: The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics commissioned independent laboratory tests that revealed 38 secret chemicals in 17 leading fragrances.

Dear EarthTalk: I?ve always suspected that perfumes and colognes must not be too healthy simply because of the way the smell of most of them bothers me. Am I correct? Is there information available on this issue??Lucinda Barry, Minneapolis

Ahhh...the sweet smell of petrochemicals! The Environmental Working Group (EWG) reports that, while many popular perfumes, colognes and body sprays contain trace amounts of natural essences, they also typically contain a dozen or more potentially hazardous synthetic chemicals, some of which are derived from petroleum. To protect trade secrets, makers are allowed to withhold fragrance ingredients, so consumers can?t rely on labels to know what hazards may lurk inside that new bottle of perfume.

?A rose may be a rose,? reports EWG. ?But that rose-like fragrance in your perfume may be something else entirely, concocted from any number of the fragrance industry?s 3,100 stock chemical ingredients, the blend of which is almost always kept hidden from the consumer.?

The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics, a coalition of over 100 groups seeking transparency about chemicals in cosmetics, commissioned independent laboratory tests that revealed 38 secret chemicals in 17 leading fragrances. The top offenders?: American Eagle Seventy Seven topped the list with 24, followed by Chanel Coco with 18 and Britney Spears Curious and Giorgio Armani Acqua Di Gio each with 17.

?The average fragrance product tested contained 14 secret chemicals not listed on the label,? reports EWG, which analyzed the Campaign?s data. ?Among them are chemicals associated with hormone disruption and allergic reactions, and many substances that have not been assessed for safety in personal care products.? EWG adds that some of the undisclosed ingredients are chemicals ?with troubling hazardous properties or with a propensity to accumulate in human tissues.? Examples include diethyl phthalate, a chemical found in 97 percent of Americans and linked to sperm damage in human epidemiological studies, and musk ketone, which concentrates in human fat tissue and breast milk.

EWG explains that ingredients not in a product?s ?hidden fragrance mixture? must be listed on the label, so makers disclose some chemicals but ?lump others together in the generic category of ?fragrance?.?

EWG blames the U.S. government in part, pointing out that the Food and Drug Administration ?has not assessed the safety of the vast majority? of secret chemicals used in spray-on products such as fragrances. ?Fragrance secrecy is legal due to a giant loophole in the Federal Fair Packaging and Labeling Act of 1973, which requires companies to list cosmetics ingredients on the product labels but explicitly exempts fragrance,? reports EWG. As such, the cosmetics industry has kept the public in the dark about fragrance ingredients, ?even those that present potential health risks or build up in people?s bodies.?

For more information, check out EWG?s May 2010 ?Not So Sexy? report, available on the group?s website. Also, EWG?s SkinDeep database serves as an evolving source of information on the ingredients (and their health risks) in thousands of cosmetics and related products widely available on store shelves.

Orioles rip Red Sox, keep pressure on NY

By DAVID GINSBURG

AP Sports Writer

Associated Press Sports

updated 9:58 p.m. ET Sept. 28, 2012

BALTIMORE (AP) - Chris Tillman already has more wins in 2012 than the combined total over his first three years in the big leagues.

That might come as a shock, except nothing the Baltimore Orioles do this season is all that surprising anymore.

Tillman pitched eight innings of one-hit ball, Ryan Flaherty hit his first career grand slam and the Orioles beat the Boston Red Sox 9-1 on Friday night remain a game out of first place in the AL East.

Chris Davis hit a two-run homer as the Orioles kept pace with the division-leading Yankees, who beat Toronto 11-4. Baltimore also tightened its grip on the top AL wild-card spot.

Tillman (9-2) gave up a bunt single to leadoff hitter Scott Podsednik, then allowed only two walks the rest of the way in his longest outing since July 4. The right-hander retired the final 14 batters he faced, and the only run he allowed was unearned.

Tillman came to spring training with a 7-15 lifetime record. Although he pitched well in camp, he began the season with Triple-A Norfolk and remained there until July. In his last 12 starts, the 24-year-old is 8-1 with a 3.00 ERA and has become one of the most effective starters on the staff.

"He's one win away from winning 10 games, but we hopefully have bigger fish to fry," manager Buck Showalter said. "He keeps putting himself in a position to be worthy of getting the ball."

Said Tillman: "I feel like I'm confident in my delivery, and when you have confidence in that, things will play out well for you. I just got to take it pitch-by-pitch and not get too worried about the next inning or the next game. One step at a time."

Troy Patton worked the ninth to complete the one-hitter.

It was the 90th win for the Orioles, who went 69-93 last season. If Baltimore wins three of its last five games it will make the postseason, regardless of how the other contenders fare.

Boston has lost 14 of 20. Starter Aaron Cook (4-11) went one-plus innings, allowing six runs, five hits and three walks. Only 18 of his 42 pitches were strikes.

"I wasn't making pitches. I was behind, and when I did come in there they hit balls over the fence," Cook said.

Asked what he might have done differently to be successful, Cook replied, "Not walk (anyone) and not give up hits."

Flaherty, a Rule 5 rookie, became the latest in a long line of heroes during the Orioles' improbable season. He was batting .225 with five homers and 14 RBIs in 72 games before connecting to cap a six-run first inning that included a two-run drive by Davis.

Flaherty also doubled in a run in the fifth. The five RBIs were two more than his previous career high, and it was only the third time he drove in more than one run in a game.

"Yeah, it seems like every night it's someone new," Flaherty said. "Whether it is a pitcher, a hitter, a play in the field, something. We'll keep riding it."

Baltimore has hit nine homers in its last two games and has 122 at home, eclipsing the season record of 121 set in 1996.

In addition, the Orioles reached a positive run differential - 697-690 - for the first time since June 24.

Boston scored an unearned run in the first inning. Podsednik bunted to the right side and reached second when Flaherty's throw went wide of first baseman Mark Reynolds. Two batters later, Dustin Pedroia hit a sacrifice fly.

In the bottom half, Nate McLouth singled on Cook's first pitch and Davis hit a drive into the seats in right. After two singles and a walk loaded the bases, Flaherty sent a 2-1 breaking ball deep into the night for a 6-1 lead.

Successive doubles by Reynolds, Manny Machado and Flaherty, along with an RBI single by Taylor Teagarden, made it 9-1 in the fifth.

Why do stocks open at prices different from where they closed ...

Why don't stocks open tomorrow at the same price they closed at today? ? Don S.

"Just because the bell rings at four o'clock doesn't mean the market closes," says John Frye, Chief Investment Officer of Beverly Hills-based Crane Asset Management. These days, the expansion of online trading has helped fuel a 24-hour trading cycle.

As a result, stock prices continue to adjust to any relevant news ? from developments in the European debt crisis to updated earnings reports and other company-specific news. Another contributing factor: Many American companies are listed on overseas stock exchanges, and movements in those markets after the U.S. markets close can have a big impact on stock prices by the time trading opens in the U.S. the following morning.

Frye concedes that on occasion there are attempts to manipulate prices up and down. "But mispricing tends to correct itself within a matter of minutes," he says. "If a stock price doesn't reflect the true value of the underlying company, smart investors will figure it out and profit from the mispricing."

Officer critical after being shot during child porn raid

Gregory Bull / AP

A police official walks past the Maplewood Apartments after a shooting in Lakeside, Calif. Tuesday, Sept. 25, 2012. The San Diego County sheriff's Capt. Duncan Fraser said two deputies and a suspect have been shot while the deputies were trying to contact a child abuse suspect at the suburban apartment complex.

?

By Lauren Steussy and Tony Shin, NBCSanDiego.com

One of two veterans in the San Diego Sheriff's Department injured in a gun battle in Lakeside, Calif., is in critical condition, law enforcement sources said Tuesday night.

Detective Ali Perez and Sgt. Craig Johnson were reportedly shot and injured by Daniel Witczak after confronting him Tuesday afternoon in a Lakeside apartment complex, sheriff's department authorities said.

For more visit NBCSanDiego.com.

Witzcak, 30, was confronted by the deputies for allegedly keeping pornographic images of his girlfriend's children on his cell phone with the intention of selling them, according to his girlfriend.

??

Perez was in critical but stable condition Tuesday night, sources told NBC San Diego. He was shot at least twice with a high-powered gun, including once in the stomach.

Johnson was shot in the arm and is expected to recover.

Confronted about child porn, man shoots two deputies in San Diego County

Lt. Duncan Fraser from the sheriff's department said both endured hours of surgery after being transported to the hospital.

?It?s too early to tell,"?Sheriff Bill Gore said of the deputies' condition, "but any time you have major gunshot trauma, there?s great cause for concern.?

NBC San Diego

A shooting victim arrives at the hospital following a gun battle in San Deigo, Calif.

Detective Perez is an 18-year veteran with the department who is assigned to the Child Abuse Unit. Sgt. Johnson is a 23-year veteran with the department who is assigned to the Santee station.

Fraser said he knows Perez well, and that for him to be assigned to the Child Abuse Unit demonstrates that he's "a good detective and has the ability to do a good, thorough investigation."

Perez was one of the deputies who found 15-year-old Charles Andrew Williams, the suspect in the Santana High School shooting of 2001.

The entire sheriff?s homicide detail was at the scene of the shooting investigating and canvassing the area, Fraser said. They secured a warrant to investigate the residence early Tuesday evening.

One of the deputies is married to an employee with the San Diego Police Department, SDPD Chief Bill Lansdowne said.

"This is a very difficult day for the San Diego County Sheriff's Department and everyone in law enforcement," Gore said to reporters after one of the deputies had just gotten out of surgery. "It?s a constant reminder of what our law enforcement officers in this country face every day."

Witczak was taken to Scripps Mercy Hospital, according to a hospital source. There is no word yet on his condition.

The girlfriend told NBC San Diego that she was getting her two daughters ready for school when she found pornographic pictures of her boyfriend and her two daughters engaged in sex acts on his cell phone. Her boyfriend told her that he planned to sell the photos for $50,000 to a child porn site.

The woman said that after the deputies stormed the apartment, her boyfriend shot the two deputies with a high-powered rifle and then shot himself.

Visualized Inside Rovio's HQ

When in Helsinki, or rather Espoo, there's only thing left to do after stopping by Nokia's glass House -- visit Rovio's HQ. That's right, the company made famous (and filthy rich) by flinging fowl is just a short walk away from Elop and co.'s waterside domain. And, in a bit of perfect timing, we were graciously welcomed into the gaming outfit's office on the eve of its Bad Piggies launch. As you might expect and hope, the walls, doors, floors, couches, desks, soft drinks and even bottles of hand lotion are adorned in all things Angry Birds. There's even a mock-up experience store -- populated with a variety of branded paraphernalia -- sitting pretty in pale green just outside a bank of cubicles. It's everything we ever imagined it to be. But don't just take our words for it. You can check it out for yourself in a video after the break. And now, we're really Finnish(ed).

Benefit From The Personal Finance Knowlege That Is Provided ...

Not maintaining your own personal finances may lead to negative physical and emotional health. There are some tips listed below to help you start taking care of your personal finances.

Don?t pay full price for everything to help your budget. Stop buying certain brands unless there are coupons for them. For instance, if you regularly purchase a specific brand of detergent, you should start prioritizing other brands if there are coupons available.

Buying a car or house are usually the biggest purchases most people make. A large portion of your budget will likely be devoted towards interest and payments for these items. You can save thousands of dollars over the life of these loans by making one additional payment on an annual basis.

TIP! Make some extra money by having a yard sale. Also, ask your neighbors to see if they have items that they would like to sell.

If you spend all of your take-home pay on monthly outlays, try to find luxuries or other frivolous expenditures on which you might be able to sacrifice somewhat. For instance, it could be hard to stop eating out. Try to cut back slowly. By allowing yourself to have a dinner out periodically, you can still have a fun night out, but you will save money, since you will not be going out as often.

Credit card rules have changed recently, especially for people under 21 years of age. In previous times, college students were freely given credit cards with no restrictions. You have to have a cosigner or be able to prove your income. Read the literature of a credit card offer before you apply for it.

The sooner you start saving the better off you are. Young people can afford to take higher risks with their investments, since retirement is so far off. You have to understand that saving money is essential. Put aside money each payday for your savings account. You will soon start to see a good financial cushion.

TIP! Credit cards are generally superior to debit cards. If you get approved for a credit card, stick to using it on essential items, such as groceries and gas for your car.

Cooking and eating at home, as opposed to eating in restaurants, is a good way to save money if you desire to improve your financial situation. It is easy to fix a tasty, filling dinner for your entire family, spending less than $30. You can easily spend that much on a couple of fast food burgers and some soda.

Regardless of the difficulty of your situation, you must protect your retirement plan. There are many alternative methods to improve your immediate situation. Tampering with your savings for the future can leave you high and dry when you truly need those funds and are too old to work.

The best way to keep your finances on track is to pay all of your bills on time or early, if possible. Once your bills are paid off, you?ll know exactly what you can afford to spend and save that month. It also provides you with a cushion in the event of an unexpected expense, allowing you to pay your bill a little later than normal without it being late.

Rebalance your portfolio yearly. Re-balancing your portfolio gets your investments in line with your goals and risk tolerance. You will also be able to learn how to, or capitalize upon, buying low and selling high.

TIP! Be prepared by having the correct health insurance policy at hand. No matter who you are, it?s possible to get sick at any time.

Handling complex financial matters can be difficult, but practically anyone can do it as long as they have the right tools. You can do research on your own, in addition to seeking out the advice of financial experts. These ideas should help you get a handle on your finances

American Express comes through on car rental coverage! - One Mile ...

Some of you may remember that back in early August I had a bit of an accident with a rental car in Germany. You can find the original post here, and the follow up post here.

Fortunately I paid for the rental with my American Express Platinum card, which provides secondary collision coverage through their basic car rental protection (though in the meantime I?ve signed up for their premium car rental protection, which costs a flat $24.95 per rental and provides both primary and secondary coverage, along with a bunch of other benefits). You guys helped me figured out the exact benefits, though there seemed to be about a hundred different opinions as to whether I?d need to report this to my insurance company first or whether I could deal exclusively with American Express.

So I figured I?d provide the ?final? report. A week after getting home I opened a claim with American Express, which could be done online and took all of 10 minutes. I simply had to fax or scan all of my correspondence from Europcar from thereon out.

I didn?t hear from Europcar for a while, and then in early September they sent me a bill for roughly 1,100 Euros (not as bad as I thought, actually). I faxed that to American Express, and today received an email from which, which in part reads:

This email is to notify you that your claim has been reviewed and that payment has been made.

Sweet! As much as I spend so much time focusing on the points earning benefits of credit cards, this whole experience was awesome. I spent a total of maybe 15 minutes on this (filling out the form online and faxing American Express the Europcar bill), and they took care of the rest.

Kudos, American Express!

Pakistani bounty placed on anti-Islam filmmaker - The Ambrose ...


A girl is photographed as she attends an anti-US demonstration with religious students in the compound of the Red Mosque in Islamabad September 22, 2012, 2012. About 200 breligious students from the Jama hafsa seminary gathered at the Red Mosque to protest against an anti-Islam film made in the US mocking the Prophet Mohammad. The girl's headband reads: "the prophet above is calling us." Credit: Faisal Mahmood/Reuters

(Reuters) - A Pakistani minister offered $100,000 on Saturday to anyone who kills the maker of an online video which insults Islam, as sporadic protests rumbled on across parts of the Muslim world.

"I announce today that this blasphemer, this sinner who has spoken nonsense about the holy Prophet, anyone who murders him, I will reward him with $100,000," Railways Minister Ghulam Ahmad Bilour told a news conference, to applause.

"I invite the Taliban brothers and the al Qaeda brothers to join me in this blessed mission."

A spokesman for Pakistan's prime minister said the government disassociated itself from the minister's statement.

While many Muslim countries saw mostly peaceful protests on Friday, fifteen people were killed in Pakistan during demonstrations over the video.

People involved in the film, an amateurish 13-minute clip of which was posted on YouTube, have said it was made by a 55-year-old California man, Nakoula Basseley Nakoula.

Nakoula has not returned to his home in the Los Angeles suburb of Cerritos since leaving voluntarily to be interviewed by federal authorities. His family has since gone into hiding.

In the Bangladeshi capital Dhaka on Saturday, thousands of Islamist activists clashed with police who used batons and teargas to clear an unauthorized protest. In Kano, northern Nigeria's biggest city, Shi'ite Muslims burned American flags, but their protest passed off peacefully.

The demonstrations were less widespread than on Friday, but showed anger still simmered around the world against the film and other insults against Islam in the West, including cartoons published by a French satirical magazine.

Showing continued nervousness among Western governments, German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle called on Muslim countries to protect foreign embassies.

"The governments in host countries have the unconditional obligation to protect foreign missions. If that doesn't happen, we will emphatically criticize that and if it still doesn't happen it won't go without consequences," he told the Welt am Sonntag newspaper on Sunday

Germany's embassy in Sudan was stormed on September 14 as was the U.S. mission in the capital Khartoum where there were deadly clashes between police and protesters against the film.

MILITIA OUSTED IN BENGHAZI

In the Libyan city of Benghazi, a crowd forced out an Islamist militia some U.S. officials blame for a deadly attack on the U.S. consulate during one of the first protests, on September 11.

Ansar al-Sharia, which denies it was involved in the attack that killed U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans, quit the city after its base was stormed by Libyans angry at armed groups that control parts of the country.

That might go some way to vindicate U.S. President Barack Obama's faith in Libya's nascent democracy where Ambassador Christopher Stevens had worked to help rebels oust Muammar Gaddafi only to be killed in a surge of anti-Americanism.

"It's the view of this administration that it's a pretty clear sign from the Libyan people that they're not going to trade the tyranny of a dictator for the tyranny of the mob," said White House spokesman Josh Earnest.

"It's also an indication that the Libyan people are not comfortable with the voices of a few extremists and those who advocate and perpetrate violence, to drown out the voices and aspirations of the Libyan people."

In Egypt, the leader of Egypt's main ultra orthodox Islamist party, that shares power with the more moderate Muslim Brotherhood, said the film and the French cartoons were part of a rise of anti-Islamic actions since the Arab spring revolts.

"A new reality in the Middle East has emerged after the toppling of autocratic regime of Hosni Mubarak and others through democratic elections that brought newly-elected Islamist governments," Emad Abdel Ghaffour, leader of the Salafist Nour Party, told Reuters.

"There are interest groups who seek to escalate hatred to show newly-elected governments and their Muslim electorate as undemocratic," he said.

Nour, whose party is the second largest in parliament and plays a formidable force in Egypt's new politics, said President Mohamed Mursi should demand "legislation or a resolution to criminalize "contempt of Islam as a religion and its Prophet" at the U.N. General Assembly next week.
