MONTREAL - Larry Taylor is returning to the city where he started his CFL career. The Montreal Alouettes announced Tuesday that they have acquired the return specialist from Calgary, as well as the Stampeders fifth-round draft pick in the 2014 CFL Canadian Draft. Going the other way is Montreals fifth-round draft pick in 2014 and its conditional third-round pick in 2015. The five-foot-six, 181-pound native for Mort Lauderdale, Fla., began his professional career with the Alouettes in 2008, earning the CFLs special teams player of the year award the following season. He finished the 2009 season with 1,971 combined yards, the most in the CFL, while also scoring three touchdowns. "We welcome Larry back into the nest. Having obtained another one of our originals and one of the most exciting players in the CFL gives us great competition and depth at the WR and Returner positions," Alouettes general manager Jim Popp said in a statement. Last year, Taylor native returned 53 kickoffs for gains of 1,147 yards and 82 punts for gains of 615 yards, earning a spot on the West Division all-star team. . The 26-year-old Regina native teamed up with Denny Morrison and Mathieu Giroux to win gold in 2010. Makowsky also was 13th in the 5,000 metres and 19th in the 1,500m in Vancouver. He also represented Canada at the 2014 Games in Sochi, helping the pursuit team finish fourth and finishing 28th in the 1,500. . It looked like being another miserable day for Moyes when Ashley Westwood put Villa in front from a 13th-minute free kick. But Rooney headed United level seven minutes later, and the striker netted his 16th of the season for the struggling champions from the penalty spot before halftime.

With pinch-runner Kevin Pillar aboard after Dioner Navarro opened the bottom of the ninth with a single, Anthony Gose dropped down an excellent bunt along the first-base line.PRETORIA, South Africa - A South African judge will respond on Wednesday to arguments on whether to allow prosecutors to appeal the verdict and sentence in the case against Oscar Pistorius, who was acquitted of the murder of his girlfriend.Prosecutor Gerrie Nel outlined his objections to the culpable homicide verdict and sentence against the Olympic runner, saying Judge Thokozile Masipa erred in her interpretation of the law. Masipa, who presided over the Pistorius trial, will also decide whether the case can be heard at the Supreme Court of Appeal.In October, Masipa convicted Pistorius of the lesser charge of culpable homicide and sentenced him to a five-year prison term. He could be released from prison to be held under house arrest after 10 months.There is a very good prospect that we may convince an appeal court that the shortest possible incarceration in a case like this, my lady, is shockingly inappropriate, Nel said, addressing Masipa in the same courttroom where the murder trial was conducted.dddddddddddd If the right to appeal is granted, Nel said he will argue for a harsher sentence.The double-amputee athlete is serving his sentence in a Pretoria prison and was not in court.Pistorius fatally shot Steenkamp in his home on Valentines Day, last year.

This can only happen in specific circumstances because South African law, like U.S. law, does not allow an accused to be tried twice for the same charge.Pistorius defence attorney, Barry Roux, argued against allowing an appeal on either the conviction or sentence.If an appeal is granted and Pistorius is convicted of murder, he would face a minimum of 15 years in prison.
