Luck 'very close' to throwing again

Andrew Luck posing for the camera © (Getty Images) Andrew Luck Andrew Luck is reportedly "very close" to throwing again, a big milestone in his recovery from shoulder surgery last year.

More than that, it also suggests Luck won't require additional surgery.

According to NFL Media, the Colts quarterback is in Los Angeles working with noted passing-mechanics gurus Tom House and Adam Dedeaux. Since being placed on injured reserve in early November Luck has been working on his strength and conditioning.

Luck missed all of the 2017 season after undergoing surgery for a torn labrum last January. Although he had been expected to fully recover in time to play in 2017, as the season neared the Colts kept pushing back his return timetable. After having Luck throw a bit during the season, the team opted to place him on IR.

A healthy Luck is critical for the Colts' prospects. The team ranked 30th in passing yards last season in his absence, leading to a 4-12 mark. The team has certainly hitched its wagon to his performance; before the 2016 season, Luck signed what was at the time the largest contract in NFL history, a six-year deal worth $140 million.

R. Tiglao Exposed LTO Records Showing Aquino Never Bought or Sold a Porsche

Veteran columnist Rigoberto Tiglao exposed the Land Transportation Office (LTO) records of former President Benigno Aquino III showing that he never bought or sold an expensive Porsche car. The LTO records proved that the former President did not sold his Porsche 911 Carrera car which he claimed he bought for P5 million. The controversial Porsche car of the former President made headlines just months into his presidency but he explained that he bought the luxury car with the proceeds he got when he sold his BMW. Because of the furor from such display of opulence, Pres. Aquino claimed to have sold it six months later for exactly the same price. According to Tiglao during that time he asked through his column the LTO to release the car's deed of sale and registration to prove that it was not a gift from a Chinese-Filipino tycoon as rumored by some individuals critical to the President. The only possible way to discover whether the Porsche luxury was indeed sold was through ...

Tesla cloud account hacked to mine cryptocurrency

© Provided by The Hill An unidentified outside hacker infiltrated Tesla's Amazon cloud account and used its systems to quietly mine for cryptocurrencies, a cybersecurity firm announced Tuesday. The hack also potentially exposed the electric car company's data. Researchers for RedLock found that Tesla's credentials on an IT administrative console were not password protected. They made the discovery while trying to track down which organizations had left their Amazon Web Services (AWS) credentials openly exposed on the internet last month. The hackers quietly hijacked the console and began running scripts to generate virtual currency like bitcoin, the latest in a series of "cryptojacking" attacks. The researchers also found the hackers used "sophisticated evasion measures" to go undetected. A spokesperson for Tesla said the company learned about the breach in a company-sanctioned bug bounty program that pays outside hackers to discover vulnerabilitie...
