Stabbing of Miami Dolphins wide receiver Brandon Marshall

Stabbing of Miami Dolphins wide receiver Brandon Marshall

The stabbing of Miami Dolphins wide receiver Brandon Marshall -- he should recover within 2 to 3 weeks, his agent said -- is unfortunate. Yet it is a reminder that problems are constantly lurking, especially for football players during the offseason.

I'm not about to go all knee-jerk and say this is another incident stemming from players being locked out and not supervised by their teams.

Players arrested during lockout

Buccaneers CB Aqib Talib is one of 10 players to have been arrested since the NFL lockout began March 12. Talib turned himself in last month in a shooting case.More ... 

To the contrary.

This incident, in which police say Marshall was stabbed by his wife, could have happened if the receiver was participating in offseason activities with his team. It could have happened during the season. It simply could have happened because something always seems to be going on with Brandon Marshall.

Now, we've seen our share of troubling incidents this offseason. In addition to Marshall -- who as far as we know is a victim -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Aqib Talib, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant, Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Mike Vrabel and Tennessee Titans wide receiver Kenny Britt, among others, have been cited in police reports this offseason. We've also seen non-player employees step out of line.

As of now, though, this isn't some trend because players are locked out of work. They get in trouble every offseason. I've covered the NBA and NFL combined for far more than a decade, and I can't say the number of players getting into trouble is some abnormality.

Some of these players -- Bryant, Britt, Talib and Marshall -- had prior issues, so this could be more about them than a league-versus-players labor standoff.

Sure, offseason activities do provide players with structure and something to do three or four days per week. We all know that certain people need structure and supervision to organize their days and themselves.

Those of us who cover the NFL also know that not everybody attends every offseason workout with the team and that several players work out on their own and do just fine. Some don't do fine. Some get in trouble or seem surrounded by trouble at the very least. Idle time is idle time, and some players don't always do the right thing with it.

One train of thought is that because some of the locked-out players haven't received workout or roster bonuses or other means of revenue, they're more restrained with carousing, potential trouble-making behavior and keeping a distance from money-grabbing friends who could lead them astray.

Now, where the lockout does come into play -- and this is serious -- is the lack of communication between players and teams. Some coaches, particularly assistants, have tight relationships with players. There also might not be a more important person in any NFL building than the player development director or someone with a similar title.

This person is the go-to communicator, facilitator, friend and common-sense director for every team. They arrange everything from helping players find real-estate agents when they move to town, to getting them offseason internships with local businesses, to helping them navigate baby-mama drama.

Players trust these people because many of their discussions are private and don't reach coaches or others in the organization. Player development directors also tell players when they need to grow up, ditch the homies and get their butts to work when they're not feeling up to it that day.

At the NFL Scouting Combine in February, I spoke with a number of player development guys who were terrified about not being able to speak with players. One told me specifically that some players on his team needed him because he listened to them when no one else would. The severance of communication wouldn't be healthy, he said.

The biggest fear of some player development directors I spoke with is that after spending months, if not years, building relationships with players, the inability to be there in a time of need could breach trust. There are players who count on them but remain insecure enough to think folks with the team turned their backs on them in moments of need.

It might not seem like a big deal to many people because most of us don't have anyone but our parents, spouses or friends to lean on during crises. Then again, most of us don't do our jobs in front of millions on Sundays and Mondays or receive $90,000 every two weeks with women who previously paid no attention to us suddenly interested -- not to mention fast-food franchisers trying to get us to invest.

A multitude of dynamics are in play, and if this lockout stretches on for months, we'll see more players get in more trouble than usual. Maybe then we can say idle time and lack of structure caused by the lockout had a role. Now, though, the calendar is pretty much the same as it always is.

So is player behavior -- and last I checked, most of the folks are conducting themselves as professionals and adults.(Sources:NFL)

Sathya Sai Baba | Sai Baba | Puttaparthi

Sathya Sai Baba breathes his last

Spiritual leader Sri Sathya Sai Baba died at the Sathya Sai super speciality hospital at Puttaparthi in Andhra Pradesh's Anantapur district today. Doctors said he died at 7.40 am of cardio-respiratory failure. The 84-year-old was admitted to hospital on March 28 with breathing and heart problems.  

His condition since Thursday morning had been described as "very critical" by doctors attending to him. Most of his organs were not responding to treatment. The condition of his liver and his low blood pressure were causing concern, they had said.

Godman to some, miracle-man to others and revered as God by lakhs of his followers, Sathya Sai Baba had the rich, famous and powerful from the world of politics, business, films and sport flocking to his doorstep in Puttaparthi, the small Andhra Pradesh village that he made internationally famous. 

 
Born on 23 November 1926 in a modest family in Puttaparthi, Satyanarayana Raju declared himself a reincarnation of Shirdi Sai Baba at the age of 14. From then on his devotees and admirers only grew in numbers over the years.
 
Though a few controversies did cast shadows on Sai Baba's image and critics have been skeptical about claims that he would produce holy ash, golden rings and mementoes from thin air, Sathya Sai Baba also earned respect for setting up world-class educational and health institutions and also for charitable work like drinking water projects for four semi-arid districts of Andhra Pradesh and in Chennai. The institutions and properties that he built are estimated to be worth over Rs. 27,000 crore. 

After a hip fracture in 2006, Sathya Sai Baba was confined to a wheel chair and gave darshan from his car or a portable chair.

He breathed his last at 7: 40 a.m. on Sunday due to cardio-respiratory failure. His body will be kept at the Sai Kulwant Hall for two days for people to pay their homage to the spiritual guru.

The Baba was admitted to the super-speciality hospital at Prashantigram at Puttaparthi on March 28, following respiration-related problems.

In view of his deteriorating health, the Andhra Pradesh Police had deployed additional forces in Puttaparthi to maintain the law and order. Born as Sathyanarayana Raju, on November 23, 1926, Sai Baba was a popular Indian guru, spiritual figure and educator.

He had claimed to be the reincarnation of the great spiritual guru, Sai Baba of Shirdi, whose teachings were an eclectic blend of Hindu and Muslim beliefs.

Sathya Sai Baba and his organizations support a variety of free educational institutions, hospitals, and other charitable works in India and abroad.The number of active Sathya Sai Baba adherents was estimated in 1999 to be around six million, although followers’ estimations are far higher.

The Sathya Sai Organization reports that there are an estimated 1,200 Sathya Sai Baba Centers in 114 countries worldwide. In India itself, he draws followers from predominantly upper-middle-class, urban sections of society who have the “most wealth, education and exposure to Western ideas.”

A cultural icon in his home country, Sai Baba had attracted Presidents and Prime Ministers from India and beyond who have become his devotees in 2002, he claimed to have followers in 178 countries.(ANI)

Sachin Tendulkar decided not to celebrate birthday

Sachin Tendulkar decided not to celebrate birthday , praying for Shri Sathya Sai Baba

Master  Blaster Sachin Tendulkar, who turns 38 on Sunday, has decided not to celebrate his birthday and remains doubtful for the Indian Premier League (IPL) match against Deccan Chargers here in view of the worsening condition of the spiritual leader Sathya Sai Baba.

Tendulkar is an ardent devotee of the 85-year-old Baba, whose condition is very critical.

Tendulkar said he is praying for Baba's quick recovery.

"I am praying for Shri Sathya Sai Baba's quick recovery. Hope everyone will join me in praying for his return to good health," Tendulkar said on Twitter.

The Mumbai Indians' captain did not arrive with the team on Saturday for the match against Deccan Chargers here on Sunday but is expected to come later in the day, according to sources in the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA).

He is, however, uncertain for the match and has also decided not to celebrate his birthday, sources said.

"He may stay away from Sunday's match so that he can visit Puttaparthi, the pilgrim town in Anantapur district of Andhra Pradesh, in case of any eventuality," sources said.

Tendulkar, who has visited Puttaparthi on several occasions to seek Baba's blessings, had planned a party in the hotel to celebrate his birthday. The Mumbai Indians' management and HCA officials had even made some arrangements for the party.

Easter: How to make hard-boiled eggs, and more

This is the Easter that you are going to master the hard-boiled egg.

If you are like many of us, you set out to make hard-boiled eggs to decorate for an Easter egg hunt but you typically end up with a stinky kitchen and eggs that are overcooked or cracked. But no more. Pull up a chair and let Times Food Editor Russ Parsons tell you what you've been doing wrong -- and how to make the perfect hard-boiled egg:

"Perhaps the most common problem with hard-boiled eggs is overcooking. That's what happens when the yolks are pale yellow with that familiar green band around the outside. There is frequently the odor of sulfur. This is due to a reaction between traces of iron in the yolk and sulfur in the white. It happens only when the eggs have been overcooked. Perfectly cooked yolks are moist and deep orange. Needless to say, there is no chemical smell. The second-biggest problem is cracked shells that leak yolk and white out into the cooking water. This is caused by too-rapid heating.

How do you avoid these problems? There's one very simple method. Place the eggs in a pan just big enough to hold them in a single layer. Cover them with cold water and bring them to a rolling boil. Cook for one minute, then remove them from the heat. When the water has cooled enough that you can put your hand in (about 20 minutes), the eggs will be perfectly cooked."

From there, you can decorate like you're Martha Stewart and have a ball. And when the Easter Egg hunt is long over, you can use your perfectly hard-boiled eggs to make this egg salad. If you are one of those science types and want to know more, you can read about the science of the hard-boiled egg -- and the rest of Parsons' story -- here. But before you go, check out a veritable Easter basket full of recipe offerings from the L.A. Times Test Kitchen, and more:
