After an early loss to Brownstrown Central in Saturday's New Albany Ultra Ankle volleyball showcase, Floyd Central won its final two pool play matches, got some help and beat New Albany 25-20 and 25-9 to win the prestigious tournament on Saturday.
"I'm happy for our kids because I thought we could win this," Floyd Central Bart Powell said. "This is a very talented group that's growing up fast. They"ve got a great amount of talent. They just need a little more focus and they can dominate."
With several seniors out taking the ACT during the opening-round loss to Brownstown, the Highlanders fell 25-23, 24-26, 17-15.
"We were a little short-handed and we didn't have our emotional leader," Powell said of Brooke Hinton.
The Highlanders came back in pool play and beat Columbus North 25-18 and 25-9 before an impressive 25-17, 25-12 victory over a Castle team that had just come off a win over Bronstown.
"We played with some fire in the second game and we came out against Castle and played out of our minds," Powell said. "That's the best match we've played all year. I want to see that more and more and more."
Despite not playing as well in the championship, the Highlanders had little trouble getting by the Bulldogs for the second time this season, 25-20 and 25-9.
"We were kind of spent in the championship, but New Albany had a problem with a serve-receive," Powell said.
"We played well in the first set then let down in the second," New Albany coach John Breeding said of the championship match.
The tournament is in the middle of a tough stretch for the 11-6 Highlanders, who played in a tough New Castle Invitational field and lost a tough, five-setter to Providence last week. They have Assumption on Tuesday and Mercy Academy — one of the nation's best teams — on Wednesday this week.
"We've been on a very tough schedule this past 15-20 days and it doesn't get any easier," Powell said. "We've got the ability to do great things. We want to peak at the end. With this tough of a schedule, you have to peak in the middle sometimes, too, or you're going to get killed."
New Albany won its pool with three straight-set wins. It opened ith a 25-6, 25-12 triumph over Jeffersonville, then beat Silver Creek 25-20, 25-16 and Jasper 25-18, 27-25.
"I was really pleased with the kids all day," Breeding said. "We did what we had to do to get into the championship match. They brought intensity all day long and that's something that's been a concentration of ours. At the end of the day, that's all you can ask."
Brook McCoy led the New Albany effort with 22 kills, 11 aces and 18 digs. Alexis Lete added 21 kills, six blocks and six aces. Madison Dibble had a Bulldog-best 40 digs and Sadie Meyer led New Albany with 42 assists.
Silver Creek went 2-2 on the day with a 25-18, 25-23 win over Jeff and a 25-23, 20-25, 15-7 triumph over Jasper.
"We played some really good volleyball at some points and we played some really, really bad volleyball at times," Creek coach Jeff Zimmerman said. "We played some really good competition and that's only going to help us get better."
For the Dragons, Danni Densford and Morgan Reining had five kills apiece in a 25-14, 25-19 loss to Castle, Kendra Kirchgessner led the way with a 10-killl, two-block performance in the win over Jasper, Liz Mann finished with five kills and 14 digs in the loss to New Albany and Taylor Williams had four aces in the victory over Jeff. Kaitlyn Ramser had 59 assists on the day.
After a successful tournament like time it came to New Albany, Jeffersonville went winless on Saturday. Like Floyd, the Red Devils were missing many of their key players on Saturday.
"We had four seniors out today and we played with five JV players," first-year Red Devil coach Renee Stock said. "Elizabeth Donaway and Grace Lowe were two of our JV players we pulled up and they had a good tournament … [but] we did not adjust to the new lineup."
Hailey Lacy and Mary Pat Geary had 10 blocks apiece for the Red Devils. Bayley Whitlow finished with 36 digs and Lowe had 15 assists and 15 digs for Jeff.

In a new video, Reason.tv Editor Nick Gillespie unveils his plan to get health insurance for many of the 45 million Americans who don't have it. Call it the Gillespie plan: If you want health insurance, go out and get some.
A recent Johns Hopkins University study reports 20 percent of uninsured Americans can afford health insurance but choose not to buy it. The video introduces you to some of these folks; people who decide partying and buying clothes or protein powder are more important than health insurance.
"Many families are suffering, but there are a lot people, especially young people, voluntarily choosing to spend their money on things other than healthcare," says Gillespie, "Twenty percent of Americans can afford healthcare if they want it. If you have the money to afford healthcare you don't need Washington's help, go out and get some."

The Town of Oyster Bay held their sixth annual Children's Festival and Safety Day at this weekend, giving residents an exciting day of food, rides, and up-close and personal fun with police and fire department personnel.
Oyster Bay Deputy Commissioner of Community and Youth Services Patricia A. Beckerle welcomed local families to a day of not only entertainment, but of education as well.
"The turnout today looks beautiful because the weather is perfect...we expect between 4,000 and 5,000 people here today," she said. "We have displays from the Nassau County Police Department, the some Oyster Bay vehicles, and so much more."
The grounds of Burns Park were dominated by a score of inflatable rides, games, and crafts. In addition, kids and grown-ups alike were invited to get hands-on with Nassau County Police equipment, such as cop cars, motorcycles, horses, and even a helicopter.
Plus, the was present as well, offering fascinating demonstrations of their ladder trucks and of the Jaws of Life, a hydraulic rescue device they used to dismantle a car – with fire personnel inside posing as "victims" in need of rescuing - in record time in front of the gathered crowd.
The event, which Beckerle said was sponsored by Sloman's Shield, Steel Equities, and the Disney Vacation Club, offered local families a summer afternoon of fun without hitting them in the wallet.
"Everything we have here is free," she said. "There's ices, lemonade, hot dogs, pretzels...there are bouncies on the other side of the park, as well as rides...the kids are having a ball today."
According to Beckerle, the Children's Festival and Safety Day is just something the Town does to give something back to the families of Oyster Bay.
"Supervisor John Venditto and the Town Board feel that Oyster Bay is such a great place to work and raise a family," she said. "We like to do these events as services to our residents, who appreciate them immensely."
was on hand, meeting and greeting residents out for a day of educational fun.
"This is an amazing event," he said, "It's a great opportunity for families to come out and ride the rides, see Police equipment, watch the Fire Department carry out rescues...it's a day of great fun, and the Town of Oyster Bay has turned Burns Park into the ultimate day for kids and families and I'm happy to be a part of it."
JoBeth Berrison of Massapequa attended the event this year for the first time with her two children, and found herself counting down the days until next year's event before this one was even over.
"It's just a great day for families," she said. "My kids are having so much fun...the rides, and food, and my son especially loved sitting on the police motorcycle and petting the police horse. It's so much more than just a simple fair."
Christain Malone of Farmingdale has been coming to the Children's Festival and Safety Day with his family for three years running, and said it never fails to provide a good time.
"I love the food and the Police demonstrations, and my kids really love watching the Fire Department tearing apart cars in their rescue demos," he said. "Plus, it's great to let them tear into the inflatable rides and stuff...it tuckers 'em out, and by the time I get 'em home, they're pretty much ready for bed. So it's a win-win for me!"

Cochrane, Chicago Booth professor and self-styled Grumpy Economist blogger, got a sneak peek from Torsten Slok of a slide deck evaluating the US economy. Cochrane shared three charts ("Sorry, the slide deck isn't public," he notes) including the one below, which shows a correlation between the Fed balance sheet and the number of words in FOMC statements.

When we arrived at the home, the pictures presented on line were exactly what we experienced. The home accommodated everyone in our group, young and old. We had everything that we could possibly need (kitchen utensils, plenty of towels, amenities, shopping, etc). While we were in Orlando, we visited Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Downtown Disney, Universal City Walk, Florida Fall...all within close proximity of the home. We loved our stay and looking forward to next year!
The description of the house was accurate. Clean, well maintained, beautifully decorated and spacious. The owner Mr. Jimmy gave us a welcome at the house and provide us all the information we needed for our stay in advance. The pool, game room, video game area, TV's, gave all the different members of the family activities to choose from. We didn't go to any restaurants around the area because we love to cook and we were able to do everything we wanted to share with family that stay and friends that visited us. Everybody loves the house facilities and accommodations. The access control of the resort gives us the worry free feeling for a safe vacation. We recommend this property to anybody that wanted a homey feeling away from home. We thank God for giving us this opportunity to reunite all our family members that we weren't able to see for long time and thank Home Away Home and Mr. Jimmy to gave us the right place for a wonderful and unforgettable vacation.
We arrived in Kissimmee on June 7th and checked out on June 14th. We have a large family, and needed a house that could accomodate all of us comfortably. With kids, grandkids, sister, spouses and us, our total was 19. We had enough space to sleep everyone in our party, and enough room to move around for everyone. Needless to say, we were pleasantly surprised. This gated community that the villa sits in is gorgeous! Well manicured and maintained......and the clubhouse is a defintie perk! My wife and I took advantage of sneaking away to the poolside tiki bar for beverages on a couple of occasions. And, the clubhouse pool is amazing! Okay, okay.......so getting back to the villa. The villa is just as it looks in the pictures. Everything is well decorated and very spacious. Our entire family enjoyed the pool in back, and I appreciated the fully enclosed screen to keep bugs and debris out. The kitchen, bathrooms and laundry room were well stocked with utensils, appliances and towels. We were in need of nothing. The villa was perfect......and the location was just as advertised. We were literally 10 minutes from Disney, and 20 minutes from Universal. Those were the only two we visited.....also, a little over an hour from Cocoa Beach. We spent a whole day there also. What else can I say but, "Shane, thank you for allowing us to stay in your villa! It was everything we hoped it would be. WE WILL BE BACK......

The Norman Transcript
NORMAN — It is the last couple of weeks of the high school sports year. Already this week we've seen soccer playoffs begin, regional baseball get started, boys regional golf and, Thursday, the girls state golf tournament concluded.
Also, Monday was regional girls tennis and today begins the girls state tournament, which will include players from both Norman High and Norman North.
For the Tigers, Maggie Marcum will be playing in her third straight Class 6A state tournament and her second at No. 1 singles, while Gabby Schreiner will be playing in her second straight state tournament at No. 2 singles.
Marcum and Schreiner both qualified Monday at Will Rogers Tennis Center with fourth-place regional finishes. Today they'll return to the same venue hoping to extend their season to Saturday.
The NHS contingent isn't as big as last year's when the doubles team of Grace Anthony and Elizabeth Waters also advanced, but it is the third straight year the Tigers have scored at least two entrants into the state tournament and, two years ago, when the Tigers sent two — Marcum and Kathryn Phillips — nobody could remember the last time it had happened.
North has one entry, the No. 1 doubles team of Caitlin Fields and Carol Fodra, who are both playing in their first state tournament.
It's clearly Fodra's last. She is a senior and is also an exchange student from Brazil. Fields is a junior.
"They actually started playing together well after half of our season was over," North coach Jamie Wilson said. "They just clicked with each other."
Diamond forecast: Norman North — and everybody else — moved up the Class 6A baseball regional it was hosting in anticipation of Thursday's cold, wet and windy weather. Having nailed the weather, the Timberwolves are back in action today, looking forward to not having to come back to Tull Lake Park on Saturday.
Having dropped Lawton Ike 7-2 and Southmoore 4-0 Wednesday, North will meet the winner of today's 4 p.m. Midwest City-Southmoore game at 6:30 tonight, needing victory to reach the sate tournament. If the T-Wolves fall short in that game, they'll come back Saturday against the same opponent in an elimination game for both teams.
Also, at 2 p.m. today, Norman High meets Yukon, at Yukon, needing to win twice, and once Saturday, to reach the state tournament out of the loser's bracket.
18 enough: The Class 6A girls state golf tournament (barely) concluded Thursday at River Oaks Golf Club in Edmond. Players ventured onto the course and into the weather only to determine the final medalist standings. As such, 18-hole team scores, comprised Wednesday, became final scores.
That meant a state title for Tulsa Union, which nearly lapped the field with a 298 team total, an average of 74.5 strokes for each counted score. It also meant Southmoore, led by Cassidy Herbster's 80, secured a fifth place finish at 338. Broken Arrow (313), Jenks (320) and Choctaw (328) placed second, third and fourth.
Additionally, it mean NHS' Tess Hartog (86) and Channah Cox (112), North's Scarlett Metseff (106) and Moore's Taylor Greteman (85) didn't have the opportunity to play a second round.
Day at the track: Harve Collins Stadium may have enjoyed a busier spring than ever. Crazy cold and wet weather forced several soccer games onto its artificial surface. Also, the Tigers hosted their own track meet — the Gregg Byram Classic — there March 8 and the Mid-State Conference meet April 25. And Saturday morning begins a Class 6A/Class 5A regional meet that will feature Norman High, Norman North, Southmoore, Putnam City, Putnam City West, Edmond Memorial, Lawton and U.S. Grant, as well as Noble, Altus, Chickasha, Del City, Duncan, Durant, Lawton Mac, Northwest Classen, Shawnee and Western Heights.
The Class 6A/5A state meet begins May 10 at Yukon.

Michael R. Petit has been waiting for more than a year for America's presidential candidates and the news media to start talking about the issue of children in poverty.
Petit is the president of Every Child Matters, a Washington-based organization that lobbies for better living conditions for children living in poverty.
For him, the 2008 presidential campaign has been a time of extreme frustration. He laments that his organization, and others like it, have been unable to get Barack Obama or John McCain to talk much about poverty.
Nor has he had much success getting the news media to raise questions about an issue that faces an estimated 37 million people -- well over one in 10 Americans.
"Obama has a section about poverty on his Web site, and he has proposed some programs to help, but neither of these candidates are talking about the issue," said Petit, former commissioner of Maine's Department of Human Services.
"Since the wars started in Iraq and Afghanistan in 2001, 28,000 American children have died of child abuse, suicide or homicide. Thirteen million kids are in poverty, 8 million lack health insurance, 14 million are left alone after school ... I try to get the media to ask the candidates what they are going to do about it, and the media won't pursue it."
The Buffalo News did raise questions along those lines with both major party candidates. The same 12 questions on poverty issues were e-mailed to spokesmen for McCain and Obama on Sept. 22. An Obama spokesman got back to The News the same day.
It took two more e-mails before a McCain spokesman responded, and only to say that McCain and his running mate, Sarah Palin, would not be available for interviews. (Obama and Joe Biden also declined to be interviewed.)
Finally, after several more e-mails and phone calls, McCain's Western New York campaign coordinator, Russell Gugino, sent answers to the questions on Oct. 9.
"I understand why the Wall Street meltdown is the major story right now," Petit said. "But we've been trying to get people talking about poverty since long before the meltdown."
Do readers think that either one of the candidates really would make an effort to help people pull themselves out of poverty?

Rapid turnaround, multimedia capability, and wide circulation among academic, national, and industrial laboratories are the main features offered by the journal. With a primary focus on high-quality original research articles, the journal also organizes special sections that will help elucidate and define specific challenges unique to the interdisciplinary field of biomicrofluidics.
Editor's Picks
A new ultra-high-throughput screening assay for the detection of cellulase activity was developed based on microfluidic sorting. Cellulase activity is detected using a series of coupled enzymes leading to the formation of a fluorescent product that can be detected on a chip. Using this method, we have achieved up to 300-fold enrichments of the active population of cells and greater than 90% purity after just one sorting round. In addition, we proved that we can sort the cellulase-expressing cells from mixtures containing less than 1% active cells.
We present a simple microchip device consisting of an overlaid pattern of micromagnets and microwells capable of capturing magnetically labeled cells into well-defined compartments (with accuracies >95%). Its flexible design permits the programmable deposition of single cells for their direct enumeration and pairs of cells for the detailed analysis of cell-cell interactions. This cell arraying device requires no external power and can be operated solely with permanent magnets. Large scale image analysis of cells captured in this array can yield valuable information (e.g., regarding various immune parameters such as the CD4:CD8 ratio) in a miniaturized and portable platform.
We present an analytic technique for probing protein-catalyzed transient DNA loops that is based on nanofluidic channels. In these nanochannels, DNA is forced in a linear configuration that makes loops appear as folds whose size can easily be quantified. Using this technique, we study the interaction between T4 DNA ligase and DNA. We find that T4 DNA ligase binding changes the physical characteristics of the DNA polymer, in particular persistence length and effective width. We find that the rate of DNA fold unrolling is significantly reduced when T4 DNA ligase and ATP are applied to bare DNA. Together with evidence of T4 DNA ligase bridging two different segments of DNA based on AFM imaging, we thus conclude that ligase can transiently stabilize folded DNA configurations by coordinating genetically distant DNA stretches.
We report the Laser Induced Forward Transfer (LIFT) of antibodies from a liquid donor film onto paper receivers for application as point-of-care diagnostic sensors. To minimise the loss of functionality of the active biomolecules during transfer, a dynamic release layer was employed to shield the biomaterial from direct exposure to the pulsed laser source. Cellulose paper was chosen as the ideal receiver because of its inherent bio-compatibility, liquid transport properties, wide availability and low cost, all of which make it an efficient and suitable platform for point-of-care diagnostic sensors. Both enzyme-tagged and untagged IgG antibodies were LIFT-printed and their functionality was confirmed via a colorimetric enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Localisation of the printed antibodies was exhibited, which can allow the creation of complex 2-d patterns such as QR codes or letters for use in a final working device. Finally, a calibration curve was determined that related the intensity of the colour obtained to the concentration of active antibodies to enable quantitative assessment of the device performance. The motivation for this work was to implement a laser-based procedure for manufacturing low-cost, point-of-care diagnostic devices on paper.
Detection of individual target cells among a large amount of blood cells is a major challenge in clinical diagnosis and laboratory protocols. Many researches show that two dimensional cells array technology can be incorporated into routine laboratory procedures for continuously and quantitatively measuring the dynamic behaviours of large number of living cells in parallel, while allowing other manipulations such as staining, rinsing, and even retrieval of targeted cells. In this study, we present a high-density cell self-assembly technology capable of quickly spreading over 300 000 cells to form a dense mono- to triple-layer cell arrangement in 5 min with minimal stacking of cells by the gentle incorporation of gravity and peripheral micro flow. With this self-assembled cell arrangement (SACA) chip technology, common fluorescent microscopy and immunofluorescence can be utilized for detecting and analyzing target cells after immuno-staining. Validated by experiments with real human peripheral blood samples, the SACA chip is suitable for detecting rare cells in blood samples with a ratio lower than 1/100 000. The identified cells can be isolated and further cultured in-situ on a chip for follow-on research and analysis. Furthermore, this technology does not require external mechanical devices, such as pump and valves, which simplifies operation and reduces system complexity and cost. The SACA chip offers a high-efficient, economical, yet simple scheme for identification and analysis of rare cells. Therefore, potentially SACA chip may provide a feasible and economical platform for rare cell detection in the clinic.

Flow-through electroporation of mammalian cells in decoupled flow streams using microcapillariesView Description Hide Description
We report on reversible electroporation of cells in a flow-through microfluidic device, whereby the required electric field is delivered through a set of integrated microcapillaries between a centre stream of cells and side streams of liquid electrolytes. The electrolytes are applied with a sine wave voltage and cells flow by the microcapillary openings encounter a burst of ac field with a duration and strength determined by their average speed and spatial proximity to the microcapillary openings, respectively. Effectiveness of the approach is presented through numerical simulations and empirical results on electroporation efficiency and cell viability against various flow rates (exposure time to the field) as well as frequencies and root-mean-square (rms) intensities of the field. High frequencies (80–400 kHz) and high intensities (e.g., 1.6 kV/cm, rms) are identified with increased electroporation efficiency 61% and viability 86% on average. These results suggest that the device demonstrated here with a simple design and robust operation offers a viable platform for flow-through electroporation.

OTTUMWA — Mary Ann Reiter doesn't really need a cookie jar.
"Freshly-baked [products] have a short shelf life," she said while cooking in her kitchen. "I don't use preservatives."
That means if she wants to serve coffee, she'll make cookies, too. For those last-minute guests, she preheats the oven, takes homemade cookie dough — already portioned — out of the freezer and has freshly baked cookies by the time the coffee is done brewing.
To keep the cookies from sticking together in the freezer, Reiter first places them on a cookie sheet as if ready to bake, but instead puts the cookie sheet in the freezer. Later, she puts the raw, frozen cookie balls in a bag, then back in the freezer they go for family or guests.
"Eating is a very social thing," she said.
Cooking can be interactive, too. While visiting her daughter, the pair took a half-day tamale-making class in Chicago.
"It was fun," Reiter said.
And though she clearly enjoys cooking and baking, she takes food preparation seriously: She uses a flat surface to crack eggs because corners can drive shell into an egg. While bread is baking, she won't open the oven door because that impacts the temperature. And guests helping in her kitchen — or just observing — are told to put on an apron and wash their hands first.
If you want a consistent product, Reiter said, even home cooks must be precise. She always uses the same brand of flour because she knows its characteristics. She uses a scale to measure items because weighing is more accurate. And instead of a spoon, she uses a tiny ice cream scoop to drop leveled, uniform quantities of batter into muffin tins.
Every egg shell, every apple core, orange peel and cherry stem is dropped into a container separate from the trash can: They'll eventually make their way back to the garden as compost. There are also chemical interactions Reiter avoids.
For example, milk can have enzymes which affect yeast. Reiter scalds her milk before adding it to a yeast dough recipe.
In some ways, she acknowledged, baking is like chemistry — there are things that need to be done one exact way. Other times, you can have some fun. Her daughter calls one of Reiter's well-loved recipes "garbage bread."
"On a given day, it has whatever I have on hand," Reiter said. "The protein structure can support it."
Over the years, her garbage bread has been topped with sesame seeds, cereal, oatmeal, wheat and other grains.
Biting into a treat in Reiter's kitchen reveals two separate textures. While the inside of a muffin is warm and fluffy, the outside has a crispness, like a microthin, protective shell.
Though she keeps a neat, handwritten journal of recipes she's discovered, she enjoys picking up cookbooks when traveling.
"I'm happy if I get [just] a couple of recipes from the book," she said.
Why are there handwritten notes in the margins?
"Some recipes are flawed," she said, "but you like the concept, so you fix it."

Zachary Fucale
Position: Goaltender
Junior team: Halifax (QMJHL)
Born: Laval, Quebec
Measurables: 6-foot-1, 181 pounds
2012-13 stats: 45-5-3, 2.35 GAA, .909 save pct.
Central Scouting rank: No. 1 (North America)
Lowdown: It's easy for goaltenders to win when they're surrounded by ridiculous talent. Halifax boasts Nathan MacKinnon and Jonathan Drouin, both pegged to go in the top three of the draft, and the squad rolled to the Memorial Cup championship. Fucale reaped the benefits, going 16-1 with a 2.02 goals-against average and .918 save percentage.
It's not easy, though, for goalies to stay focused during routs. Halifax outscored its opponents, 347-176, giving Fucale plenty of lonely moments at the end of the rink. He received good marks for staying in the game and learning to be ready when action inevitably arrived.
Practicing daily against future stars Drouin and MacKinnon helped Fucale's progress. He's got good size for a goaltender and is positionally sound. He's adept at reading plays, which reduces the number of sparkling saves he needs to make. Goalies can be a bargain toward the middle of the draft, but someone is expected to take a run at Fucale in the first round.
He said it: "I've evolved as a goalie from last year. I worked on every single little part of my game. I've become better. I've tried to improve every little aspect. … Playoffs, it's do or die. You want to win. It's big games in playoffs, and it was a great learning experience this year. I'm looking forward to other playoffs and learning more." – Fucale.

A few weekends back, when we were at T & T (to pick up our weekly dose of coconut water), I was strolling through the produce section and decided it was time to try something new. Trust me, when I say there are LOADS of foods at this market that we have not tried. From different types of Chinese lettuce to quail eggs…this place is a haven for experimentation. While being surrounded by many types of fish, fruit and meat, of which I have never tasted…I needed to keep my zoned-out being intact. While regaining focus, like I said, cooking up an inaugural dish was my motive…so I picked up some baby bok choi. Why this…you may ask? Well…I figured similar to that of kale or spinach…it would be super easy to sauté in no time flat! A good newbie, that was uncomplicated in nature to prepare.
I was right. Yummy deliciousness with as few as 5 ingredients. A simple side dish that is best when eaten right away (not ideal for leftovers). Both of us really enjoyed the combo of flavours and actually made it again later that week. Loosen up…give unfamiliar territory some time. My advice to you is to move slowly into perhaps incorporating at least one new food item into your weekly meal schedule. This doesn't have to be something extreme…it could be as simple as using coconut oil for the first time to roast some veggies, rather than your usual olive oil. Don't limit yourself. Eating Paleo def isn't boring…and it blows my mind when people suggest such a notion. Open your eyes…and your home and let something 'different' find it's way to your plate! It may just end up being one of your all-time favs!
Next up for me…BEEF CHEEKS!!!
|garlic & ginger baby bok choi
- a few tbsp of coconut oil
- a few handfuls of baby bok choi (we used probably 12 or so)
- a fist of minced garlic (6-8 cloves)
- freshly grated ginger (1-2 cm peeled chunk)
- ground pepper and sea salt to taste
- thoroughly wash your baby bok choi
- in the meantime, heat coconut oil in a heavy pan on medium heat
- when heated, add in garlic and ginger
- sauté until slightly browned
- then, add in your bok choi and sauté on low-medium heat
- cover and cook for approx 5 minutes (or until sauteed to your liking – keep a close eye, as you do not want to overcook)
- garnish with ground pepper and a sprinkle of sea salt
- enjoy!
• next time we make this dish, I think I am going to add in some chopped onion and maybe even some bacon too!!

By V. Phani Kumar and Sarah Turner, MarketWatch
HONG KONG (MarketWatch) — Mainland Chinese stocks jumped Tuesday, helping to buoy Hong Kong shares, as hopes for policy support from Beijing were strengthened after the People's Bank of China injected a large dose of liquidity to ease tight conditions.
Australian stocks climbed to a fresh 14-month high, as commodity producers rallied amid concerns about supply disruptions due to labor unrest in South Africa, while Japanese stocks declined as trading resumed after Monday's holiday.
The Shanghai Composite /quotes/zigman/1858913/delayed CN:000001 -1.56% ended the day 2% higher at 2,115.23, while Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index /quotes/zigman/2622475/delayed HK:HSI -0.91% rose 0.5% to 20,937.28.
What Merkel's Athens visit means
German Chancellor Angela Merkel will visit Athens Tuesday, but will likely be met with mixed reactions.
Both markets had declined Monday, but rebounded after the PBOC earlier Tuesday offered 265 billion yuan ($42.1 billion) in liquidity via reverse repurchase agreements — the second-largest capital injection ever by the PBOC, according to Credit Agricole — in a bid to ease tight liquidity conditions.
"The central bank seems to be scrambling to bring money market rates down in order to support growth," said Dariusz Kowalczyk, a senior economist and strategist at Credit Agricole.
"Growth can be accelerated mostly via investment, and this needs funding (loans, bonds, equities), which is difficult with tight liquidity. The large open market operation shows a pro-growth policy bias and should thus be positive for market sentiment," he added.
The gains came even as the International Monetary Fund revised down global growth forecasts for 2012 and 2013. Read full report on IMF downgrades.
Tuesday's liquidity injection came as maturing central bank bills and bond repurchase agreements were set to drain about 160 billion yuan in liquidity this week, according to a Reuters report.
"The PBOC may continue this practise in the short-term, using reverse repos as a tool to regulate liquidity in the market," said Ben Kwong, chief operating officer at KGI Asia.
He added that equity markets were unlikely to see a sharp fall ahead of the completion of once-in-a-decade power transition at next month's Communist 0Party congress in China, although he didn't believe that the gains seen Tuesday represented a turnaround for markets.
Also supporting sentiment, PBOC Gov. Zhou Xiaochuan said Tuesday monetary policy must remain flexible and set with a preemptive bias to help counter the weak external environment, according to media reports.
Financial-sector shares posted strong gains, with Industrial & Commercial Bank of China Ltd. /quotes/zigman/37346/delayed HK:1398 -1.69% /quotes/zigman/529252/delayed/quotes/nls/idcby IDCBY -0.22% /quotes/zigman/1874076/delayed CN:601398 -0.28% climbing 1.5%, Bank of Communications Co. /quotes/zigman/34374/delayed HK:3328 -1.34% /quotes/zigman/527616/delayed/quotes/nls/bcmxy BCMXY +9.92% /quotes/zigman/1875309/delayed CN:601328 -2.83% gaining 3.4% and Citic Securities Co. /quotes/zigman/1868615/delayed CN:600030 -2.51% /quotes/zigman/6728439/delayed HK:6030 -2.87% rising 1% in Hong Kong. In Shanghai, they advanced 1.3%, 2.1% and 3.3%, respectively.
Stock movers
Elsewhere in the region, South Korea's Kospi /quotes/zigman/1652118/delayed KR:SEU -0.15% slipped 0.1%, and Japan's Nikkei Stock Average /quotes/zigman/5986735/delayed JP:NIK -0.63% fell 1.1% as investors returned from a long holiday-extended weekend to sell out of commodity-related firms.
Australia's S&P/ASX 200 index /quotes/zigman/1653884/delayed AU:XJO -1.36% rose 0.5% to end at its best level since July 27, driven by a rally in commodity linked shares, in particular because of rising iron ore prices.
"We believe that the unprecedented level of supply disruptions in South Africa highlight the country's difficult labor relations and deep-seated social tensions. Despite recent wage hike agreements at Lonmin and Impala, we believe that wage increases are likely to have a knock on effect in raising broader wage expectations across the mining sector," Deutsche Bank analysts wrote in a report to clients.

TRAVERSE CITY — A good season just got better for the Ludington Orioles.
Propelled by a sweep in singles, Ludington defended its Division 4 regional tennis title Friday at Traverse City Central. The Orioles finished with 19 points. St. Francis was second with 16. Both squads advance to the state finals next weekend at Kalamazoo College.
"Two in a row — that's a good feeling," Orioles coach Cliff Perez said. "It's come down to St. Francis and Ludington the last two years. We've got a great rivalry going. I hope it continues."
Ludington reached the finals in seven of the eight flights, winning four.
"We have eight seniors on the team," Perez said. "We've had a great ride. We've been ranked as high as No. 3 in the state. We're undefeated in duals. We won our conference. It's been a great year. We couldn't ask for anything better."
St. Francis captured three doubles flights to challenge the Orioles.
"Our doubles did it today," Gladiators coach Annie Murphy said.
St. Francis had the No. 1 seed in all four doubles flights.
"We knew we were good in singles and St. Francis was good in doubles," Perez said. "On paper, if everybody held seeds, it would have come out a tie. We would have been happy with a tie, but a couple matches swung our way today and we lucked out, I guess."
"They're (Orioles) a tough team," Murphy said. "Maybe next year we'll beat them."
For the Gladiators, .Chase Richmond and Blake Bandrowski won No. 2 doubles, Evan Primeau and Corey Boudrie No. 3 and Cole Gingras and Jay Jones No. 4.
Richmond and Bandrowski defeated Ludington's Sam Nellis and Justin Markham 6-3, 7-6 in the finals.
"It was a difficult final," Bandrowski said. "It was our hardest match of the day. They're (Nellis and Markham) very good players. But we played well and pulled through."
Richmond and Bandrowski trailed 4-2 in the second set.
"Getting up to the net was definitely a key," Richmond said. "We put them more on the defensive."
Bandrowski played No. 3 singles last season while Richmond teamed with Cole Gingras at No. 4 doubles. Those two finished runner-up in the state, losing a three-setter in the finals.
Primeau and Boudrie also had to battle back at No. 3 doubles, downing Ludington's Yari Lynch and Chad Argue 7-5, 6-4.
"It could have gone either way," Primeau said. "The key, I think, was our determination."
"They were up 5-2 in the first set and we came back and took it," Boudrie said. "In the second set, we played our hearts out."
Primeau and Boudrie were both on the JV team last season. Now they're regional champions.
Gingras and Jones topped Ludington's Austin Sniedowski and Mason Chapman 6-3, 6-2 in the finals at No. 4.
"It was a good day for us," Gingras said. "We came out and wanted to play our best. We knew most of the teams. We played Ludington and Harbor Springs (during the season) and beat them."
Still, it wasn't quite as easy as the score indicates, Gingras said,.
"There were some scary moments," he said. "We were down a few times, but we came back."
Gingras is a senior, Jones a freshman.
"It was fun," Jones said. "This was my first regional tournament. We beat some good competition."
St. Francis' Dan Wilson and Tanner Hobbs reached the finals at No. 1 doubles, but fell to Whitehall's Zac Carlson and Kyle Zack 7-5, 6-3.
"No. 1 doubles had a really tough match in the finals," Murphy said. "It could have gone either way."
Ludington took all four singles flights. Jake Perez, the coach's son, beat top-seeded Sam Dart of Harbor Springs 7-5, 6-1 for the title. Dart was the defending champion. Spencer Knudsen defeated Leelanau County's Leif Mohrman 6-1, 6-0 at No. 2 singles. Jon Pugh rallied to beat St. Francis' Jack Krcmarik 2-6, 6-1, 6-0 at No. 3 singles. P.J. Lovato upended Harbor Springs' Ben Brushaber 6-0, 6-0 at No. 4.
Now it's on to the state finals. St. Francis tied for sixth last October, Ludington tied for 15th.
"Our goal was to make it to the state championship," Richmond said. "It should be exciting to see what happens there."
Ludington, meanwhile, beefed up its schedule to prepare for the state meet.
"The formula to do well at states is to be seeded," Perez said. "In order to be seeded you have to travel to the east side of the state. That's what we did. We went and beat Liggett in a dual. We beat Almont in a dual. We tied Armada 4-4. So when we go to the state seed meeting at least we'll be able to make comparisons. Last year nobody knew who Ludington was. They said, 'You might good, but who did you play?'"

Don't hate the Hatelys because they're beautiful.
It just so happens that they're great at Gridiron Green, too.
Last week, it was Carolyn "reddurango" Hately that won our Gridiron Green.
This week, it was Rob "sparky" Hately that won our Gridiron Green.
Last week, Carolyn Hately picked 12 of 14 correctly to win our top prize.
This week, Rob Hately picked 13 of 14 correctly to win our top prize.
They both finished one right pick left of the national Gridiron Green champion, too.
This week, Cindy Anderson of Traverse City, Mich., scored a perfect 14-for-14; it's tough to beat perfect.
Locally, "edonelan" leads our Week 2 winner Ann "packerfan" Laws 92-91, while "tnewhard" and "tholeman" share the Gridiron Gold at 90 points.

A man who loved speed was rocketing up the Rt. 611 Bypass in Doylestown at at least 142 miles an hour when he slammed his souped-up Mustang Cobra into another car on the night before Thanksgiving, the busiest travel day of the year.
That's what Bucks County prosecutors will try to prove when they prosecute that driver, Drew Bodden, 37, for third-degree murder for causing the death of 9-year-old Holly Huynh.
"A charge of murder in an auto crash is not particularly common. But then neither are the facts which our investigation have revealed about this horrific act," Bucks County District Attorney Dave Heckler said Thursday during a press conference to announce the charges.
"That is the point of this case," Heckler said. "This was a volitional act, a choice by Mr. Bodden to drive at a speed that was beyond reckless."
Malice is the defining point that sets murder apart from manslaughter, Heckler said, contending that Bodden's actions showed "a complete indifference to human life."
The Crash
Bodden, of Plumstead, was driving his Ford Mustang Cobra that night north up the Rt. 611 Bypass around Doylestown. He was in the left lane, speeding at 142 to 154 miles an hour, said Bob James, assistant district attorney in charge of the case.
Two other drivers on the road that night told police they saw Bodden driving fast and thought he might have been racing a black Cadillac, James said. The driver of that Cadillac told investigators he sped up to about 70 miles per hour to pass a car before moving into the right lane to get out of the way when he saw the Mustang bearing down on him, according to court papers filed Thursday.
Suzanne Berry was driving her granddaughter Holly from a gymnastics class in Warrington to their home in Plumstead, James said. She was in the left lane traveling 60 to 70 miles an hour when Bodden slammed into her Honda CRV, James said. A reconstruction of the crash scene estimated her speed to have ranged from 61 to 75 miles an hour, according to court papers.
"They were not stopped in the roadway," as some have speculated, James said.
The impact forced the Honda across the right lane, off the road and into the grassy area next to the Broad Street exit ramp. The Honda went airborne and rolled over before coming to rest on its wheels, facing east, according to court papers.
The Honda was so damaged that rescuers had to cut both Holly and her grandmother from the wreckage, James said. The vehicle is barely recognizable in photos of the crash scene displayed at the press conference.
The Mustang traveled another 900 feet up Rt. 611 before hitting a guardrail and coming to a halt in the grassy median.
Rescuers who raced to the scene found Holly unconscious and unresponsive in the back seat of the crushed Honda. A Bucks County Coroner's deputy pronounced her dead at the scene. She had been wearing her seatbelt.
Berry, who also had been wearing her seatbelt, was unconscious and barely breathing, trapped inside the driver's compartment of the Honda. Rescuers were able to resuscitate her and airlifted her to Temple University Hospital in "extremely critical" condition.
Rescuers also had to cut Bodden and his girlfriend, Christine Mokrynchuk, 43, out of the wreckage of their car, Heckler said. They were taken to Abington Memorial Hospital for treatment.
The Aftermath
In addition to the murder charge in connection with Holly's death, Bodden faces other charges, including two counts of aggravated assault by vehicle, James said.
One charge is for causing the injuries to Berry. The 55-year-old Plumstead woman remains hospitalized at Temple, where a hospital spokesman on Wednesday said she was in fair condition. Berry sustained a traumatic brain injury in the crash, James said, and is breathing with the help of a ventilator in the hospital's intensive care unit.
The second charge is for causing the injuries to Mokrynchuk, who sustained a broken ankle, wrist, sternum, ribs and a head injury. She had remained hospitalized until early this week, James said.
Toxicology tests showed that Bodden, who also was in the hospital until earlier this week, had no alcohol or drugs in his system that night, the prosecutor said.
"His judgement was not impaired one bit when he decided to drive his vehicle more than twice the speed limit on a very crowded highway," James said.
In an interview from his hospital bed, Bodden told investigators he "accelerated to at least 75 mph" and that the car in front of him "looked like it had stopped in the road without its lights on."
Investigators also interviewed Mokrynchuk in the hospital. She told them she and Bodden had left Outback Steakhouse, in Montgomeryville, and were on their way home that night.
Once they reached the 611 Bypass, she said Bodden started driving fast. She remembered passing the black Cadillac, she said, adding that Bodden "may have been traveling in excess of 100 mph prior to the crash," according to court papers.
The Charges
Bodden turned himself in to police on Thursday morning, hobbling out of the Doylestown Township Police Department on a walker, bandages still evident from the broken wrist and broken leg he sustained in the crash.
He was arraigned in district court on Almshouse Road Thursday afternoon. District Justice Mark Douple set bail at $500,000 but released Bodden on his own recognizance after his attorney argued successfully that his client needs physical therapy and powerful painkillers.
Moving carefully down the sidewalk, Bodden and his attorney, Gavin Laboski, declined to comment further. A former Bucks County prosecutor, Laboski now practices law with the Doylestown firm of Benner and Wild.
The murder charge carries a maximum sentence of 40 years in prison, and the two counts of aggravated assault by vehicle together carry 14 years, prosecutors said, meaning Bodden could face 54 years in prison if convicted of all three counts.
He also has been charged with homicide by vehicle, involuntary manslaughter, reckless driving, speeding, and three counts of recklessly endangering another person.
Investigators already have begun painting a portrait of Bodden as a man obsessed with fast cars.
Before it was disabled, Bodden's Facebook page included photos of himself behind the wheel, smoke emanating from spinning tires. Investigators say he has been a member of online forums dedicated to high-performance Ford vehicles, where he has posted about driving fast.
In real life, he has a string of traffic violations. In 2007, he pleaded guilty to driving without a licence and exceeding the speed limit by more than 10 miles an hour, according to court records.
James said Bodden had added thousands of dollars worth of aftermarket parts designed to enhance the engine's horsepower and make his car go faster.
According to court papers, crash scene investigators found the crumpled Mustang's speedometer "resting at just under 160 mph."

My family really enjoyed this new way of serving sweet potatoes. Makes a great side dish for holidays.
This was amazing - we loved it! The taste is so wonderful and subtle!
chibi chef
Amazingly easy and delicious! I'm going to bake my sweet potatoes from now on instead of boiling. Baking causes water to evaporate, leaving an intensely sweet and flavorful potato. Absolutely no sugar needed. In the past, I've boiled my sweet potatoes, which made them lose a lot of their flavor. Pureeing in a food processor gave them a creamy and airy quality that I never got with mashing by hand. The only changes I made to make it healthier was to use fat free buttermilk, 1% milk, and half the butter. It was still unbelievably creamy with these substitutions. My husband, who doesn't care for sweet potatoes went back for thirds.
