Kent State 6, Akron 1
AKRON, Ohio – In front of a record-setting crowd, the Kent State baseball team beat Akron, 6-1, Thursday (May 17) at Canal Park in the Sixth Annual Diamond Classic For Kids to open a three-game Mid-American Conference weekend between the East Division rivals.
With the triumph over the Zips (17-36, 10-15 MAC), the 2012 MAC champion Golden Flashes (35-17, 22-3 MAC) have won 26 of their last 33 games – including 15 of their last 17 and 11 in a row. Kent State has won 35 games for the 17th time in program history – including for the sixth time under eighth-year head coach Scott Stricklin and fifth season in a row. Kent State's 22 conference victories are the most since former head coach Danny Hall's 1993 squad achieved the feat.
"We're playing good baseball right now," said Stricklin. "We're playing good defense, our pitching has been outstanding and we're getting clutch hits. We took advantage of their mistakes, and that's what good teams do. We're trying to focus on playing good baseball and keeping our momentum."
The Golden Flashes improved to 4-2 in the Diamond Classic, posting their third straight win in the annual event that benefits Akron Children's Hospital in front of a record-breaking crowd 1,310.
"It was a great night for Akron Children's Hospital," said Stricklin. "The people at the hospital did a great job of promoting this event, and it's a good rivalry game between two good teams."
Senior southpaw ace David Starn (Hudson, Ohio) dominated on the mound to improve to 8-3 on the season and 26-7 for his career, which ties him with Pat Bangston (1984-87) for the most pitching wins in program history. He fanned nine over six innings while giving up just one earned run on three hits and two walks. Kent State's career strikeouts leader, Starn improved his career strikeout total to 324.
Akron struck first with a run in the top of the third inning, but the damage could have been worse, as Starn worked out of a one-out, bases-loaded jam. Sophomore right fielder Darius Washington hit a leadoff double to right center for the Zips, then advanced to third on a base hit to left by junior center fielder Jared Turocy. Sophomore second baseman Tyler Begun filled the bases for Akron by drawing a walk. Freshman shortstop Matt Rembielak bumped Washington home one out later by coaxing a walk. That's all the Zips got out of it, though, as Starn forced senior third baseman Sam Watkins to fly out to left and struck out sophomore catcher Brady Stewart.
"David lost his focus there for a little bit and had a couple walks, which is uncharacteristic of him," said Stricklin. "What is characteristic of him is fighting back and getting out of jams. To get out of there with holding them to one run was important."
Akron's lead was short lived as Kent State fired back with two runs in the home half of the third. Junior center fielder Evan Campbell (Beloit, Ohio) drew a one-out walk, and senior catcher David Lyon (Emporium, Pa.) joined him on the base paths when he reached on a fielding error by Rembielak one out later. That set the table for junior first baseman George Roberts (Summerhill, Pa.) to send a two-RBI double down the right field line and give Kent State the lead.
Starn settled in over the next three frames and only allowed one more base runner to advance past first.
Kent State extended its lead to 3-1 in the bottom of the sixth as freshman left fielder Alex Miklos (Grove City, Pa.) hit a one-out single through the left side, stole second and scored one out later on a base hit to left by senior shortstop and MAC all-time hits king Jimmy Rider (Venetia, Pa.).
The Flashes tacked on their fourth run in the seventh when redshirt junior third baseman Nick Hamilton (Avon Lake, Ohio) cracked a one-out base hit to left, scampered to third on a wild pitch and crossed home plate courtesy of a single to center by sophomore right fielder T.J. Sutton (Uniontown, Ohio).
Kent State took advantage of two more Akron errors in the eighth inning to seal the victory. Sophomore second baseman Derek Toadvine (Springfield, Ohio) beat out an infield single, then headed for second on a throwing error by Watkins. Toadvine stole third one out later, then scored on a fielder's choice that put Rider on. Rider moved to second on the play on a fielding error by Stewart. Roberts made it 6-1 one out later by driving in Rider with a single back up the middle.
Senior right-handed pitcher Ryan Mace (Tallmadge, Ohio) tossed three scoreless innings in relief of Starn and earned his fourth save of the season.
Senior right-handed starting pitcher Andrew Brown was tagged with the pitching defeat for Akron, falling to 6-8 on the season. He surrendered three runs – one earned – on five hits and six walks. Brown struck out four in 5.2 innings of work.
Kent State takes aim at its fifth straight MAC series win and eighth of season to close out the 2012 campaign as it hosts Akron Friday (May 18) at 3 p.m. at Olga A. Mural Field at Schoonover Stadium. Junior right-handed starting pitcher Ryan Bores (Strongsville, Ohio) will start on the hill for the Golden Flashes and is scheduled to oppose Akron freshman left-handed starter Pat Dyer.
Ball State 11, Northern Illinois 10 (10 innings)
DeKALB, Ill. – Northern Illinois and Ball State went into extra innings Thursday afternoon with Mid-American Conference Tournament implications on the line. BSU scored one run in the top of the tenth to defeat the Huskies, 11-10 in 10 innings. Freshman Ben Neumann (Verona, Wis.) pitched 5.1 relief innings on the mound, surrendering three hits, zero walks and striking out a career-high nine batters.
"Ben had a great outing for us today, they got to Rock (Taylor Nawrocki) early and we had to make a change," said Head Coach Ed Mathey. "I was hoping to get an inning or two out of Ben, because we haven't really stretched him much and he just kept getting outs. We had a chance to close it out today in the ninth but we got a couple of bad bounces. We did a good job of battling back but we have to give credit to Ball State, they played a heck of a game."
Ball State scored four runs in the top of the first on a grand slam by pitch T.J. Weir and scored another three runs in the top of the second to give the Cardinals a 7-0 lead early in the game. The Huskies bounced back with one in the bottom of the second and added two in the bottom of the third on a bases loaded fielder's choice by Brett Frantini (Minooka, Ill.) and a single by Connor Schomig (Darien, Ill./Hinsdale South) to bring NIU to within four, 7-3.
With Neumann dealing strikes and delivering outs from the mound, the Huskies were able to go on the offensive in the bottom of the sixth to tie it up, 7-7. Alex Jones (Kansas City, Kan./Piper) doubled to score Schomig from third and advance Alex Beckmann (Batavia, Ill.) into scoring position. Troy White (Chicago/Whitney Young) tripled to drive in both runners and scored on the next at-bat when Alex Klonowski (Kearney, Mo.) hit a sacrifice fly to left field.
The Huskies took an 8-7 lead in the seventh on Chris Divarco's (Long Grove, Ill./Carmel Catholic) solo homerun, the first of his career, over the left centerfield fence. NIU held the Cardinals at bay until the top of the ninth, when they rattled off five hits and scored three runs to recapture the lead, 10-8.
Jordan Huffman (Sergaent Bluff, Iowa) leadoff the ninth with a single and Divarco delivered again, this time with a single to advance Huffman to second. Kevin Sweeney (Chicago/Fenwick) pinch ran for Divarco and advanced 90 feet twice with Huffman on a pair of passed balls to bring the score to 10-9. With the bases loaded after Frantini was hit by a pitch, Jamison Wells (Combined Locks, Wis./Kimberly) drove in Sweeney on a fielder's choice to tie the game, 10-10.
BSU captured the final lead of the game when Sean Godfrey singled to left field to score Kevin Franchetti. The Huskies went down 1-2-3 in the bottom of the 10th and fell, 11-10. Neumann hurled career-highs in innings pitched (5.1) and strikeouts (nine). White finished 3-for-6 with a triple, two RBI and two runs.
The Huskies (15-38, 7-18 MAC) and the Cardinals (12-36, 7-18 MAC) will continue the series tomorrow afternoon at Ralph McKinzie Field, with first pitch taking place at 3:05 p.m. With the loss, NIU was eliminated from MAC Tournament contention.
Buffalo 14, Bowling Green 0
BUFFALO, NY - In his last regular season start as a UB Bull, Cameron Copping made sure it would be memorable. The senior threw a complete game seven-hitter and was buoyed by 14 runs by the offense as Buffalo (17-33, 9-15 MAC) thrashed Bowling Green (19-32, 8-17 MAC) Thursday afternoon, 14-0. The win eliminated the Falcons from postseason contention and kept Buffalo's slim hopes very much alive.
The Temple City, CA native's 13th start was a lucky one for Buffalo, and with that start he moved into a tie with six other former UB pitchers for the most starts in a single season in team history. Copping also struck out four batters to move into third place on the season record list with 75 this season, and his team-high 90.2 total innings are now the second most for a single season in program history.
Helping him along to such a momentous day was three double plays turned by the Bulls, coming in the first, second, and eighth innings. To cap it all off, Copping did not allow a single walk, a welcome relief to the team after it had allowed 10 to St. Bonaventure in a loss on Tuesday.
The offense was more than ready to support its senior as well, with five different players recording two or more hits and five driving in multiple RBI. Dan Scahill was the highlight among many on Thursday, driving in four runs on two doubles. In the second inning, the senior right fielder brought home Jason Kanzler and Jon Mestas. In the very next inning, he plated Kanzler and Matt Pollock to cap an inning where the team pushed across five runs and led 9-0. Now with 19 doubles this season, Scahill ranks third on the program's single season list.
In the fifth inning, the Bulls loaded up the bases with no outs, and Thomas Richards kicked off the scoring again with a five-pitch walk that scored Kanzler. Alex Baldock then doubled down the left field line to bring in two more UB baserunners, and Mike Burke capped the scoring with a two-run single that brought in Richards and Baldock.
Baldock went 2-3 with a pair of walks, while Burke had a team-high four hits. Reigning MAC East player of the week Kanzler added three more hits and had four runs scored. Tom Murphy had two doubles, two RBI and a walk.
The team will now sit back and root for a pair of teams it would normally call its rival. Akron and Miami are currently playing on the road at Kent State and Ohio, respectively. Losses by the Zips and Redhawks today will get UB just one step closer to its first ever appearance in the Mid-American Conference tournament.
Buffalo will lean on another senior tomorrow, with Jeff Thompson getting the ball in another must-win situation. Friday's first pitch is scheduled for 1 pm.
Toledo 4, Eastern Michigan 3 (12 innings)
TOLEDO, OH - Freshman RF Dan Zuchowski's two-run single in the 12th frame propelled Mid-American Conference West Division frontrunner Toledo to a 4-3 triumph against Eastern Michigan on Thursday at Scott Park. With the extra-inning victory, the Rockets maintain their one-game lead in the division and improve to 28-25 overall, 17-8 in the league.
In the third extra inning, the first three UT batters reached base on EMU errors to bring Zuchowski to the plate with a chance to be the hero. The Hamtramck, MI did not disppoint and turned a low offering from the Eagles' (24-27, 14-11 MAC) Paul Schaak, lacing a two-run single through the right side to send the Rockets' bench into a frenzy.
Junior RHP Cody Umbright (1-0), the fourth Toledo hurler of the afternoon, was credited with his first victory of the spring. Umbright retired the only batter he faced in the top of the 12th inning to help the Midnight Blue & Gold get out a second- and third-base jam with two outs.
Sophomore LHP Ryan Wilkinson (7-3) drew the start in today's series opener and was solid, allowing two runs on seven hits with four strikeouts in 6.0 innings in a no-decision.
Senior RHP Tyler Scott and senior RHP Lincoln Rassi also toed the rubber against a talented EMU squad, limiting them to one unearned run on two hits with four punchouts in 5.2 relief frames.
Offensively, the Rockets were limited to five hits with no player collecting a multi-hit effort against four Eastern Michigan hurlers.
UT struck first on a RBI single off the bat of senior CF Ben Hammer (1-for-2, RBI, 3 BB) in the third inning. With one out in the frame, junior 3B Wes White (0-for-4, RS) drew a walk to give the Rockets their first baserunner of the contest. Following another free pass and a ground out, Hammer delivered a seeing-eye single through the right side to lift the home team the early advantage.
Toledo's lead did not last long though, as EMU evened the score at 1-1 in the fourth frame on a two-out, solo home run by Matt Hitt.
The Eagles then captured their first lead of the contest on a RBI single by Lee Longo in the sixth inning. EMU pounded out three hits and drew an intentional walk from Wilkinson to grab the advantage. The damage could have been a lot worse for the Rockets, though, but freshman LF Anthony Smith gunned down a runner at the plate to limit the visitors to one run.
Eastern Michigan threatened to add an insurance tally in the top of the ninth inning and put a runner on third base with two outs. Fortunately for Toledo, reliever Scott forced a foul ball out to keep it a one-run difference.
The Rockets fed off that momentum and forced extra frames as Smith was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded to bring home the game-tying run against EMU's Jordan Glover in the bottom of the ninth. UT knotted the score despite not collecting a hit in the frame, utilizing a pair of walks & two hit by pitches. The home team also had two golden opportunities to win the game later in the inning as they still had the bases juiced with only one out, but Glover recorded two quick outs to prolong the contest.
In the first extra inning, Toledo put a runner on second base with second outs, before the Eagles' Ben Dartnell recorded a strikeout to extend the series opener into the 11th.
Following an uneventful 11th frame, EMU retook the lead in the top of of 12th frame on a sacrfice fly off the bat of Tucker Rubino against UT's Rassi, before the MAC West Division leaders responded with a pair of tallies to clinch the first game in the weekend series.
Dartnell (1-1) was tagged with the setback, yielding two unearned runs on just one hit with two walks and two strikeouts in 2.0 innings of relief.
The visitors also received an outstanding starting pitching effort from RHP Neil Butara, who gave up one run on three hits with five punchouts in 7.0 frames in a no-decision.
Brent Ohrman (2-for-5) and Longo (2-for-4, RBI) paced the Eastern Michigan offense with a game-high two hits each.
The Rockets and Eagles will continue their three-game set tomorrow with a 3:05 p.m. from the corner of Parkside Blvd. and Hill Ave. Senior RHP Matt Kuna (6-1, 2.78 ERA, 64.2 IP, 58 H, 25 R, 20 ER, 14 BB, 44 K) is slated to start for UT, while EMU will send RHP Steve Weber (7-3, 5.42 ERA, 79.2 IP, 101 H, 57 R, 48 ER, 20 BB, 53 K) to the hill.
Miami 5, Ohio 2
ATHENS,Ohio - The Ohio University Baseball team (27-26,15-10) had its four-game winning streak snapped Thursday evening at Bob Wren Stadium, falling to Miami 5-2.
Senior Brent Choban (Rittman,Ohio) took the loss falling to 7-5 on the year. Choban gave up eight runs on five hits while striking out five in 6.2 innings of work. The right hander has pitched more than 6.0 innings in every appearance this season.

Miami's Shawn Marquardt got the win for his sixth victory of the season giving up two runs on seven hits. Joe Neff came in for two innings of relief and Matt Rosinski came in to get his sixth save of the season.

Ohio got on the board first in the bottom of the second as freshman Cody Gaertner (Allison Park,Pa) scored from third off a sac-fly by freshman Ian Mezlak (Lorain,Ohio).
Miami answered in the top of the third scoring two runs to take the lead. In the bottom half of the frame, the Bobcats tied the game at two apiece after Wells came into score from third following another sac-fly this one coming off the bat of Schmidt.
After two scoreless innings in the fourth and fifth, Miami put three runs on the board to retake the lead 5-2.
The 'Cats threatened in the sixth by loading the bases loaded but couldn't convert.
Ohio returns to action tomorrow evening at 6 p.m. Senior right-hander Jason Moulton will take the mound. In six home starts this season, Moulton has an ERA of 1.86.
Central Michigan 11, Western Michigan 2
MOUNT PLEASANT - Central Michigan scored all 11 of its runs with two outs Thursday afternoon, taking game one of its series versus rival Western Michigan, 11-2.
The Chippewas (29-26, 16-9 MAC) remain one game back of MAC West Division leader Toledo, who defeated Eastern Michigan, 4-3, in 12 innings.
Senior Nate Theunissen continued to move up the record books and put the Chippewas in front in the first inning, hitting a two-run blast to right that scored junior Jordan Dean. The home run was Theunissen's 26th career bomb, moving him into a tie for 10th most in program history. He singled later in the game, moving into sole possession of second place with 258 career hits.
The Broncos cut the deficit in half, 2-1, as Ryan McMillin drew a lead off walk, advanced to second on a failed pick off attempt by senior Zach Cooper, took third on a passed ball and scored on a ground out. Another RBI groundout one inning later tied the game, 2-2.
Back-to-back singles by Dean and senior William Arnold started a two-out rally in the bottom of the third for the Chippewas, before a walk to Theunissen loaded the bases. Senior Sam Russell promptly drove a 2-2 pitch to left field for a two-RBI single and junior Jordan Adams followed with a single to right to give CMU a 5-2 lead.
Cooper worked around back-to-back singles by the Broncos in the top of the fourth before retiring 11-straight batters to protect the lead, while Adams hit a ball off the wall in center in the fifth to score Arnold and push the CMU lead to five, 6-1.
Senior Eric Wrozek hit a home run in his second consecutive game in the seventh, drilling a two-run shot to right to make the score 8-2.
The Chippewas were able to put the nail in the coffin in the eighth thanks to three WMU miscues as Adams was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded, Arnold scored on a Western error and Theunissen scored on a wild pitch.
Cooper earned his seventh win of league play by giving up just two runs - one earned - on five hits and a walk.
Adams finished 2-for-4 with three RBI, while Arnold went 2-for-4 with four runs scored. Theunissen and Dean also went 2-for-4.
The Maroon and Gold will look for their 10th consecutive win in league play tomorrow at 3:05. Nine student-athletes will be recognized as a part of senior day, which will begin at approximately 15 minutes prior to first pitch.

Flights of Fantasy
I grew up reading fantasy epic books - love them!
In these stories the hero leaves no man or woman behind, saves damsels in distress and is basically loved for their personal sacrifice...
Recently I have learned, when you have a mission:
- You can't take everyone with you...trying to will only cause you and them heartache. Sometimes the mission must go on and people who were with you at the start may not finish the journey with you.
- People don't need saving by you (or me) and to be a rescuer is actually quite 'icky'.
- You don't have to go through personal hurt to achieve amazing things. Take care of you and yours and do good for people and the planet. The two ideas are not mutually exclusive.
If you believe you are a Thought Leader, then join our social network at Thought Leaders Central. Charlie 'tremendous' Jones said, the key difference between who you are today and who you will be tomorrow are the books you read and the people you meet. If Charlie is right, and I think he is, you need to keep learning and meet the right people. I have set up the Thought Leaders Network to provide both of these elements. The mentors on Thought Leaders Central and Thought Leaders Studio provide inspiration and advice for great thinkers.
I am starting an additional newsletter in 2010 to supplement my personal one (what you are reading right now). The plan is to produce it monthly as a downloadable newspaper/magazine format. I will be asking my mates (the Thought Leaders Mentors) to contribute articles that inspire thinking and facilitate conversations that rock the planet. It is an opt in newsletter, so subscribe here if you would like to receive a copy each month.
Thanks for a great year.

This was so easy and tastey! Really good for being healthy! We love Italian food but are trying to lose weight. I can't wait to make them again!
I've served the ravioli with marinara sauce..
I've made them with cheese ravioli, and I actually prefer them that way. Really delicious. Great as an appetizer or for lunch...my sister and I make these when we get together a lot!
sharonanngCan this be made with cheese ravioli? Anybody ever try that?
I only use the cheese ravioli! And I've made it with all brands, store or regular and it always comes out great. When I feel lazy I dip them in jarred sauce. :)
Oh, and I've premade them up to the baking point and refrigerated them til game time, or whatever. I've also frozen them baked, and reheated them through on cookies sheets. Great little recipe.
Give them a try!

Mike Stanley - 10:30 PM
Lansing, MI
- Saturday, April 20, 2013
Purchase Tickets - $15
Make a Reservation
Wry, witty, cunning, & crass. Hot-shot comedian Mike Stanley is all of these things, but none, when put on paper, quite manage to serve the justice dealt by Stanley onstage. Yeah, he's pretty hilarious, but more than just coarse anecdotes about life and sex, there's an enviable amount of heart and warmth behind Stanley's humor. Originally hailing from Detroit, he's a Windy City transplant who tours constantly, both domestically and internationally. Don't miss out on an incredible opportunity to catch the man in action - this level of stand-up is too remarkable to sit out.

San Francisco Travel Guide
Why? Renowned as the world's most free-spirited city, a holiday in San Francisco sends one on a roller-coaster ride of fun in keeping with the trams that traverse its steep, hilly streets. From its diverse neighbourhoods to its bayfront pleasure-land and the offshore bulk of the Alcatraz prison, overlooked by Nob Hill, it is a city of unique charm and character.
When? The weather in San Francisco stays a stable 'cool to mild' throughout the year, though fog can put a damper on things in the summer and if you holiday in San Francisco during winter pack an umbrella, because rain is likely. There is thus no best time to visit, and San Francisco welcomes visitors all year round.
Who for? There are so many facets to a holiday in San Francisco, from history to hippies, prisons to parks, seafood to shopping, and art to architecture, that the city can truly be said to offer something for everyone. San Francisco is also rated as the world's most 'gay-friendly' city and its annual Gay Pride parade is a popular event.
More Info: Where to eat, what to see, what to do, which events to enjoy on a holiday in San Francisco: detailed information on all these things is available in our San Francisco travel guide which you can print out, email or simply digest when planning to travel to this fun city.
Golden Gate Bridge from Alcatraz © David Paul Ohmer
The most attractive of American cities and regularly voted the best city in the USA, San Francisco is adored because of its colourful history, dramatic setting and its laissez-faire atmosphere, a quality missing from synthetic Los Angeles. It is a regular trendsetter in everything alternative, from flower-power to 'free love' and gay liberation; it prides itself on being individualistic, down-to-earth and cultured.
Streets rollercoaster up and down the hills, and when not swathed in the city's trademark fog, there are superb vistas of San Francisco Bay, spanned by one of the world's most famous sights, the Golden Gate Bridge. Surrounded by hills and urban development, traversed by bridges, dotted with sails and 14 small islands, including the notorious Alcatraz, the bay is the largest inlet on the Californian Coast. Fisherman's Wharf at the edge of the bay is a popular place to eat, stroll and shop, with its resident seals a favourite photographic subject.
Within the surprisingly compact city are distinct neighbourhoods that reflect the cultural background of diverse communities that were attracted to San Francisco by the discovery of gold in 1848, and the promise of a new life for those desperate to escape their harsh circumstances. Most of San Francisco's residents were born outside the city and this mix of cultures is reflected in the dragon-studded temples of colourful Chinatown and Japantown, the characteristic bohemian flavour of the Italian pasta restaurants and cappuccino cafes in North Beach, the old Spanish-speaking Mission District that blends with the nightlife of SoMa, the modern Financial District, the gay centre of Castro and The Haight, characterised by the memory of the hippie movement of the 1960s.

Clarence >Food & Dining > Brennan's Bowery Bar & Restaurant
4401 Transit Rd, Buffalo, NY | Directions 1422142.967250 -78.694722
terrible service – Will not go back here. Absolute worst service and waitress. Went here with 5 co-workers and we all hated it, will not be back and told the entire office to avoid it. Food is decent but not worth the hassle.Thanks for nothing
Great Music! – I've been there a few times. There are quite a bit of great live bands that play there!
Average – I've been to Brenanan's a few times, and was never really impressed with the food. The wings are good in size, but in flavor they are truly lacking. If you can eat the hot wings here, then be warned to order the mild anywhere else you go, And what is up with pricing them by the pound anyway? I mean do I have to bring a scale with me to weigh the order when it gets to my table?
Brennan's serves the same bar food as almost every other bar in the Buffalo area does, and they don't really do it any better than anyone else does. There are some places where you get a lot more for your money, but not in Clarence.
Finally why do they have a patio that is facing an extremely busy parking lot? How refreshing is it to sit outside while cars are circling the lot looking for a parking place. I never thought that the smell of exhaust was a real appetizing touch.
Oh, and if you are thinking that it is an Irish pub, then you'll be disappointed to say that least. Just because the name is Irish and they have Guiness and Harp does not make it an Irish pub. In a true Irish Pub you get a free punch in the mouth whenever you order a "Black and Tan." And the people next to you will gladly talk to you when you sit down and even resist the temptation to call you a fool, even if you are one.
HORRIBLE Service – sat at table at 9:15pm.....waitress did not come to take any order until 9:40......was served food by a person in street clothes with a beer in hand........worst service ever, will never go again
Astonishing that this made "Best of Buffalo" – I picked up the 2009 Best of Buffalo resturant reviews and found it ASTONISHING to find this in there! This is one brewery I will never visit again. I grew up on Irish food, love it...and they do it a great injustice.
We sat on the patio, the "furnature" left a lot to be desired. The ambiance was horrible. The food was cold, which really should have been helped considering they were dead that night....also it took FOREVER between courses! Dessert took over 30 minutes.
The "buffalo burger" I believe it was was bland and whole combination of igredients was poor. The dish I had was also bad. I would never go back there.
Horrible – To make a long story short a buddy and I were drinking for a while and as we walked outside to leave we both realized we should call a friend or cab. The bouncers would not let us in to make a call or call a cab for us how ridicolous is that.
Darkness, Beer, and kids – This place has the potential to have a great atmosphere...instead it is just a good atmosphere. It is very dark inside, hiding some of the warn out motif from 1990! Also, the food is bland and taste like they opened it from a Sysco Can! Overall this place is average. Best bet if you want to eat, or see what your doing, is to go to Tully's across the street.
Really great spot - hidden gem in Buffalo – Nice variety of flavors, even grilled - which were quite excellent. I would have to give Brennan's the nod over Duff's & Anchor for overall flavors & quality. The brew selection sealed the deal.
Editorial Review by Christy Buena – Locals flock here for appetizers, burgers, 13 beers on tap and 24 bottled selections. A kids menu is also offered.
Food and Fun – Brennan's is a great place . They have an awesome outdoor patio to take full advantage of the short summers here in Buffalo. I've never been disappointed with a meal. Because it's always busy, you can expect a little slower service but the staff is always friendly. After dinner, the bar is a BLAST! The crowd is a very eclectic mix of young and young at heart. The all wood bar is a comfortable place to cop a squat with a brewsky and listen to the great bands they venue. When the bartenders aren't busting thier butts to keep up with demand, they are very outgoing and chatty. Looking for someplace casual to have a great meal, a few drinks, and just hang out? You've found it at Brennan's.

Joseph Phelps Vineyards Embarks On Major Renovation Project
Joseph Phelps Vineyards is pleased to announce it has embarked on a major renovation project at the winery's Spring Valley Home Ranch, located just outside of St. Helena,Napa Valley. Designed in 1973 by renowned architect John Marsh Davis, the historic redwood Joseph Phelps winery perched on a hillside above estate vineyards will be under renovation through Spring 2015. Once completed, newly created private tasting salons, a private wine club member lounge, wine library and barrel room, along with expanded vineyard views and a state-of-the-art kitchen will provide an unparalleled Napa Valley winery visitation experience.
The Phelps family and executive team commissioned award winning firms Baldauf Catton Von Eckartsberg (BCV) Architects and Brandenburger Associates AIA with repurposing the Joseph Phelps Guest Center interior spaces to enhance the guest experience with minimal changes to the original exterior design. Cello & Maudru Construction Company serves as the general contractor on the project.
"At every step of the renovation planning, it was very important to my father and the rest of our family to preserve the original John Marsh Davis design," stated Bill Phelps, President of Joseph Phelps Vineyards. "We are very pleased with the architects' efforts to maintain the building's historical aspect."
An interim guest center, located among the vines below the current facility, welcomes winery visitors until the Grand Re-Opening of the Joseph Phelps Guest Center in 2015. Open by appointment only, a visit to the Joseph Phelps Temporary Guest Center is an opportunity to experience the winery's grounds like never before during this "Year in the Vines." To schedule a Terrace Tasting or Exceptional Wine Experience visit, please call 800-707-5789.
Joseph Phelps Vineyards Promotes Justin Ennis to Winemaker in Freestone
Joseph Phelps Vineyards is pleased to announce the promotion of Justin Ennis to Winemaker at the company's Freestone estate, located on the western Sonoma Coast. In his new role, Ennis will be responsible for all day-to-day winemaking activities at the Joseph Phelps Freestone winery, working closely with Vice President and Director of Winemaking, Damian Parker, in crafting all Sonoma Coast Chardonnay and Pinot Noir for Joseph Phelps Vineyards.
Ennis joined the Joseph Phelps team in 2007 as Cellarmaster in Freestone, after nine years as Cellarmaster for William Selyem Winery in Healdsburg, as well as Harvest Supervisor and Cellarmaster for wineries in New Zealand and Argentina, respectively. In 2011, Ennis was promoted to Assistant Winemaker in Freestone.
"This is a well-deserved promotion for Justin. He has a strong background in Pinot Noir and Chardonnay production and understands the cool climate growing region of the western Sonoma Coast," said Damian Parker. "He is a talented winemaker with a wealth of knowledge."
"I feel very fortunate to be working with such amazing vineyards. Pastorale and Quarter Moon Vineyard have developed into magnificent fruit sources," said Ennis. "I couldn't ask for a better team and look forward to continuing the Joseph Phelps winemaking legacy here on the Sonoma Coast."

Research in Focus - Global Spirits Market on the Path to Recovery
By The IWSR | 24 November 2010
The spirits industry is on the path to recovery following a hard 2009 during which many markets were affected by the credit crunch, according to The IWSR's Forecast Report 2010-2015. Several countries and categories are returning to stability or growth in 2010, but the time and speed of recovery will vary considerably depending on local circumstances.
The global spirits market will continue to grow, albeit at a more moderate rate than in the five years leading up to 2009 – a CAGR of 1.4% is predicted between 2009 and 2015, down from 2.4% between 2004 and 2009.
India and China are expected to be the two fastest-growing markets for spirits globally and India will overtake Russia to become the second-largest spirits market globally in 2013, at least on registered taxed sales. All spirits categories will show growth in India in the forecast period, with vodka predicted to show the highest percentage growth: 12% between 2009 and 2015. In China, Scotch whisky will lead growth, up by 7.8% to reach 2.8m cases in 2015. The US is predicted to be the third fastest-growing market worldwide until 2015; the vodka market alone is likely to gain over 12m cases.
Most spirits categories will see more moderate growth until 2015 than they have in the last five years. This is largely due to the cautious spending behaviour adopted by consumers after the economic recession took its toll on many markets. Rum and whisk(e)y are expected to gain share of the overall spirits market, while vodka's share will decline.
Whisk(e)y is expected to see the highest increase in percentage terms, gaining around 100m cases over the next five years. The booming market in India is leading the growth with Indian molasses-based whisky. Scotch consumption will grow at a rate of 1.2% until 2015, compared to a 2004-2009 CAGR of 1%. As consumers are switching to Scotch from other categories such as aniseed, beer and even wine, and larger bottle sizes are growing in popularity, France is forecast to show the strongest volume growth in Scotch over the next five years.
Due to its growing popularity among young people and its fashionable image in many key markets, rum will continue to increase at a similar CAGR as that of the previous five-year period. After a difficult year in 2009, more premium products are expected to return to growth in the long term.
The global vodka market will grow at a CAGR of 0.7%, returning to gradual growth after falling marginally between 2004 and 2009 (-0.1%). Consumption of vodka in Germany is expected to outgrow that in the UK, while India is likely to overtake both Germany and the UK to become one of the top five markets for vodka worldwide by 2015. Despite repeated claims to the contrary, the vodka market in the US continues to develop well and growth is expected to be strong in the future. By 2015, more than every third bottle (35.1%) of spirits sold in the US will be vodka.
In spirits generally, the super-premium-and-above price segments are likely to see the highest increases in percentage terms, as consumers will be more confident and able to trade up once again. The recovery of the on-premise markets should also help the growth of this segment.
The IWSR forecasts those 53 markets that have been identified as the most significant to the wine and spirits industry. Market information is gained by The IWSR's researchers visiting around 120 markets each year, and meeting local producers, distributors and industry experts.

The report covers 54 countries and includes detailed explanations as to why and how trends have been forecast and what factors are currently important in the market.

For the first time in 14 years, Honda is offering a higher-spec version of their trusty Fireblade. The Fireblade SP has a blueprinted engine, Ohlins suspension, Brembo monobloc brakes and Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP trackday tyres. Underneath the glitz, the SP is based on the updated 2014-model Fireblade, which has a revised riding position, a taller screen, revised frame flex ...

Honda's chunky little 50cc Zoomer is a weird cross between a twist-and-go scooter, a Tonka toy and a stripped-bare army Jeep. It's easy to ride, nippy and stylish. Honda claim low emissions, it has lots of bungee hooks and there's lots of storage space, thanks to the skeleton frame and lack of bodywork. They arrived in the UK in 2005, ...
999cc, 175.3bhp, 179mph, Insurance group 17
Since 1992 the name FireBlade has conjured visions of a hard-charging superbike with attitude. While this is true of the very first two models, since then the FireBlade became a model of respectability. The 2006-07 model was arguably the best road-going superbike by being fast and bland in the same wheelbase. The 2008 FireBlade comes with attitude from its rev-happy ...
599cc, 118bhp, 165mph, Insurance group 15
Honda have hit back hard with the track focused CBR600RR. They want their 600 crown back and after our first initial ride it seems they've done it. They've rectified the old motorcycle's weak points, namely lack of midrange and weight. The Honda CBR600RR is now the lightest in the class, and has much more midrange and razor sharp handling. Watch the ...
998cc, 172bhp, 178mph, Insurance group 17
Cold, calm and supremely effective – the Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade is like The Terminator. It is an exceptional sports bike that's blisteringly fast on the road or track. It is bristling with MotoGP technology and compared to the previous motorcycles the Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade is manic and faster but heavier and arguably less exciting too.
647cc, 57bhp, 110mph, Insurance group 8
The Honda NTV650 isn't just about frugal motoring, a quality build and endless reliability. Because somehow Honda segued in a cheeky charm and a handling package that has to be ridden to be believed. Most Honda NTV650s will be a little tired after a decade or more on the streets but at the right price they're simply superb motorcycles.
1832cc, 116bhp, 120mph, Insurance group 15
The Honda GL1800 Gold Wing is the kitchen sink, bells and whistles touring motorcycle. Looking for the best comfort for rider and pillion, max luggage space and a motorcycle that'll make kids point and stare? You want a Honda GL1800 Gold Wing. Evolved from the late 70s GL1000 into the current intergalactic-cruiser incarnation. Plus there's a huge social scene of Honda ...
599cc, 115bhp, 160mph, Insurance group 15
Barely related to the long-running all-round Honda CBR600F – the Honda CBR600RR is a track biased missile – and an excellent one. On the road, the 'F' version is a better bet for most with a more roomy riding position, stable handling and a less revvy engine but get the Honda CBR600RR on the track and it's in its element.

DALLAS — Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas has received the highest accreditation for comprehensive cancer programs from the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer.
Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas received commendations in all nine categories for a community hospital to be designated an approved cancer center by the commission. The hospital is eligible for the commission's Outstanding Achievement award, which will be announced in the first quarter of 2009.
In 2005, Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas was first named an approved cancer program by the commission and received the Outstanding Achievement award that year — one of only two centers in Texas to receive the honor.
To qualify as an approved cancer center, a hospital must treat a high number of cancer patients each year, provide a full range of diagnostic and treatment services, and participate in clinical research. The hospital must also provide a cancer registry that follows patients from diagnosis through treatment and offers lifelong follow-up. Presbyterian exceeded the criteria in all categories.
"It is quite an honor to receive this recognition because only institutions that meet the high standards set by the American College of Surgeons Commission on Cancer receive the designation," said Mark H. Merrill, president of Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas. "In fact, only one in four hospitals that treat cancer patients has approved cancer programs, and we remain a part of this group."
Receiving accreditation involves meeting a complex set of requirements for a hospital's oncology services, said Dr. Pat Fulgham, surgical director of oncology. "Receiving this designation validates Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas' commitment to clinical excellence and compassionate, patient-centered care," he said.
The application process, which included a site visit, requires that hospitals submit three years of data to demonstrate that the program meets the commission's rigorous standards for providing comprehensive care for cancer patients, including state-of-the-art equipment and services, and maintaining a multidisciplinary approach to patient care.
The patient data collected by certified tumor registrars at Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas is provided to researchers and organizations such as the American Cancer Society, National Cancer Institute and Centers for Disease Control to evaluate quality of care, outcomes, and screening and prevention programs.
About Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas (PHD)
Established in 1966, PHD is the flagship hospital of Presbyterian Healthcare System, a member of the faith-based, nonprofit Texas Health Resources system.

Seattle >Bars & Pubs >
Pubs >Kangaroo And Kiwi Pub
7305 Aurora Ave N, Seattle, WA | Directions 9810347.681999 -122.344672
Daily 2pm-2am (Sat open 12noon)
Neighborhoods: Northwest, Phinney Ridge, Northwest Seattle
We went there in 2000, Was very cool to hear home accents.. Kiwis (yay) played Aussie and we lost by a smidgen..boohoo. But a great hangout!
Great Local Pub – If you have ever been to Australia / New Zealand you will love it here! They have the food and beer you enjoyed while visiting. The staff is very friendly and if you are looking to find an accent you will not be disappointed!
A Gem on 99 – Yeah, she might not be all shiny and new like some bars. But it's the folks on the inside that count. Isn't that how the saying goes? The hodgepodge of regulars that frequent the K&K are what make this bar a real gem. Although they boast being "the only exclusively all Aussie & Kiwi bar on the west coast", you will hear an amalgam of accents. The regulars here range from ex-pats from around the world to Rugby players, and throw in a good sprinkling of just good old Seattle folks for good measure. This joint does not cater to the popped collars set, my friends. The bartenders are quick, friendly and accommodating, whether you want shots or just another pitcher of ice cold Stella. The grub may be greasy, but really, who doesn't want a meat pie after a few pints? The pub quiz here every Wednesday is one of the city's finest (it's pretty damn challenging), and as an added bonus, figuring out the questions through the MC's thick British accent is an accomplishment all in itself. Reward yourself with another pitcher! Grab a table, or belly-up to the bar - either way, say hello and make some new friends at the K.
Great place to relax and catch a rugby match... – Here's a great place for expatriates of Australia, NZ, other Pacific Islanders, rugby fans, and anyone who loves a great chill laid-back atmosphere. This bar definitely caters to rugby fans and will open up early in the day to show rugby matches. It's also a great fun place to catch an American football game and cricket as well. There's always plenty of Foster's, Steinlager, and other selections and a full bar. The food selections are a great treat and the meaty meat pies are truly delicious! There's some kind of special going on most every day/night of the week as well! Great place to kick back, enjoy a few cold ones and the crowd is typically pretty friendly. Parking isn't great and you have a hard time parking in front, in the back by the Beth's Cafe parking or on the surrounding streets. Better off not driving and just enjoy a few cold ones and the atmosphere.
A virtual Down Under for Aussies craving Fosters and Rugby. – The Scene
Many imports have already made this their new hangout--Australian and New Zealand accents fill the room. The jukebox is packed with the likes of Men at Work, Midnight Oil and Crowded House background music for those throwing darts, playing pool or watching cricket, Austrailian football ("footy") or rugby on the large screen TVs.
The Draw
Sip on a Fosters, Boddington, Tetley, Guinness, Labatts or one of the other wordly draughts on tap. Only Australian and New Zeleand wines are served and a full bar is on the way. Hungry? Try a Vegemite grilled cheese sandwich, or roll up your sleeves and start peeling some boiled shrimp. Aussie meat pies, steamed mussles and spicy chicken wings round out the short but tasty (and cheap) menu.
love this place. – Hands down, my favorite place to go when I want to relax, watch the game (rugby of course!), or hang out without feeling uppity or rushed. This is the kind of place that makes a New Zealander or Aussie miss home, and any other patron wish they were there. The staff is fun and friendly, and the Steinlager's always cold. I recommend the sausage rolls and meat pies. Always tasty and hot, and perfect with a cold drink. Turn up the Marley or the Crowded House on the jukebox, and let's jam!!!

The Best Time-Saving Laundry Gadgets You're Not Using
My favorite part of laundry day is when it's over, so I'm always looking for ways to make doing the wash a little less of a chore. Here are five little gadgets that help me pick up the pace in the laundry room.
1. Dryer Balls: Throw these felted wool balls into the dryer to separate wet clothes as they tumble, helping them dry faster with less stress on the fabric. Hint: a clean tennis ball works too! Above, Wool Dryer Balls from Etsy; $20.00.
2. Handheld Steamer: When you don't want to drag out the ironing board, a portable steamer is amazing for smaller jobs or delicate fabrics. It heats in 30 seconds if you need to quickly touch up your outfit on the way out the door. Above, the Rowenta Ultra White Handheld Steam Brush from Target; $29.99.
3. Sock Clips: It's a laundry cliché, but so true: sock pairs never emerge without a few missing soldiers. Sock clips prevent losing individuals, but also save time in sorting your socks back into pairs later (my personal nightmare). Above, Sock Cop Clips from The Container Store; $8.99.
4. Salad Spinner: Thou shalt never wring out your delicates! The rough treatment will negate the care you took by hand washing them in the first place. As a final step, give them a spin (just like the spin cycle of your washer) to get them partially dry. This also prevents the stretching that can occur when you hang a sopping wet garment. You may want to pick one up specifically for the laundry room so you don't have to share with your salads. Above, the OXO SoftWorks Salad Spinner from Amazon; $37.45.
5. Sweater Drying Rack: It may seem unnecessary — you do have a towel and countertop, after all — but a drying rack really is one of those tools that makes hand washing your sweaters miles easier. The circulating air cuts the drying time in half so you can wear your favorite sweater that much sooner. Hint: store your drying sweater in the tub in case of drips. Above, the DAZZ Pop-Up Sweater Dryer from Amazon; $14.98.

I keep my socks attached together with a very small safety pin. I keep the pin attached to the inside cuff of my sock even when I'm wearing them, so at night I just pin the two dirty socks together and throw them in the wash. I've done this since I was a kid (my Dad taught me this trick), and it's probably saved hours of sorting socks. AND I've never lost a sock!!
For my toddler's socks, I put them all into a mesh lingerie bag for washing. Never lost a single sock (at least not during the laundry process!)
The concept of dryer balls is interesting to me; I have a combination washer/dryer and while I'm pretty happy with the way it works, it takes a pretty long time to dry the clothes. Would dryer balls help? Would wool ones be ineffective in a combination washer/dryer because they'd be soaked?
I read about using tennis balls with pillows in the dryer to keep them from bunching/clumping up. The only thing is they smell of chemical out of the can! It nearly knocked me over when I opened it. We have a dryer that vents to a cup on the floor...the basement stunk like the heated chemical. I would advise running the balls in the dryer with a dryer sheet to try to knock down some of the chemical stink. Or get the felted balls. They seem like a better way to go.
I use the Nellie's dryer balls I got at C&B, I haven't bought fabric softener in years.
i tried the "washer ball" but it doesnt seem as effective as actual detergent.
Ditto to C about the lingerie bag for baby socks. Someone gave one to me at my baby shower and now I give one to every expecting mom I know. Bonus: you can put bibs in them and not worry about the velcro eating other fabric.
That salad spinner idea is genius!
I love wool dryer balls! I made a few on a whim, and now I will never go back to dryer sheets.
Not only can i just leave the balls in the dryer and not think about it, but as a cat owner, the decrease in static saves me hours of getting cat hair off my clothes!
Ditto, C. I'm one of the ones who gives lingerie bags at baby showers. My dad owned a laundromat and put coin-operated laundry equipment in apartment complexes. He told me that his number one repair over the years was removing a baby sock from the water pump of a washing machine.
Great tip, Lisamfb!
Weatherman, check your dryer's exhaust path -- all the way out to the outside of the house. If your dryer is not drying efficiently, it's very possible that you have a ball of lint that's blocking the damp air leaving the dryer. My DMIL was ready to buy a new dryer. DH cleaned years of impacted lint out of the duct and DMIL's dryer drys like new!
Love my dryer balls! Love!
I have never heard of felt dryer balls! If it keeps dog hair off the black sweaters, I want a bunch of them.
I love my steamer more than words can describe. I don't iron anything anymore.
If you roll up hand-washed clothes in a clean, dry towel, it gets an amazing amount of water out without stressing the fibers at all. Lay it out flat on the towel, roll it up like a yoga mat, squish it a bit, and its just like the spin cycle but without the flinging about.
A couple things: Oh, the sock clips--I doubt they'd save me any time.
Missing socks: Check the dryer hose. I cleaned mine out and found two socks in there. They were about six inches from actually coming out of the exterior vent. !!! The recommendation is to clean this out twice a year to prevent fires.
I have a stack of old towels that I use for hand-drying my clothes. Lay them flat on the towel, roll tightly, and then knead the towel with your hands or knees. It's really amazing how much water it removes. Sun dry and even jeans will be ready by the end of the day.
Hey - And here I thought I was the only one who used an extra Salad Spinner for my delicates! It works very well to speed up the drying process. Adore Apartment Therapy site - keep up the great tours. Cheers from the Great White North
Forget the steamer on everything but those that require precise pressing or are extremely delicate. Spray your garment with distiller water and throw it in the dryer for a couple of minutes. DONE! I still use my steamer on delicate dresses but that's about it.
I redid both bathrooms and my laundry room in a reno last year, and while I love all the decor touches in the bathrooms, the single improvement that has given me the most day-to-day pleasure (well, besides having the master bath be usable again) is my wall-mounted drying rack. It has a white beadboard back, which actually goes with my decor in the area, so it's attractive as well as functional, and folds back into the wall so it doesn't take up space. So highly recommended.
Supposedly a "Shamwow"-type cloth will soak up a lot of water for sweater rolling.
My big thing is to interrupt the drying cycle to shake things out and rearrange them. You know how the dryer can create the giant ball'o clothes? I think it really helps to dry things quicker.
I've seen those dryer balls before and now may get a set. Would they do double duty at kitty toys too?
I was actually hoping for an automatic folding machine gadget, but that may have to wait.
Wool fiber is capable of soaking up humidity up to 30% if its weight without it feeling even damp. If one uses these felted balls, they should be dried reeeally well afterwards. They might feel fairly dry to the touch but there most probably is dampness left in the core of the balls.
@mdorothy What is a DMIL? And a DH?
"Darling/Dear Mother in Law" and "Darling/Dear Husband"
My hand-washables go into the washing machine and through the "delicates" spin cycle. Works great, and the clothes hold up just fine. If you have a timed, heat-free dryer cycle, it can speed drying time.
Hang-drying in the South can be tricky. Humidity makes the clothes dry slowly and go sour, pollen will coat your clean clothes outdoors in the spring. I have a hanging rod in the laundry room and keep a table fan on the washing machine. I hang up the clothes and turn on the fan to keep the air moving. Clothes dry quickly and it uses less energy than the dryer.
@chinadoll. Thank you for explaining. I can't stand how twee and condescending those terms are, but at least I now know.
Keep those mesh bags!
Each person in the house here has one (3 kids still at home), not only does it keep socks together, it stops fights about who's socks are who's!
Am I the only one who doesn't loose single socks?
As much as I loved that sweater dryer, because it was compact and worked well, it rusted! I had to toss it. ):
You can make your own dryer balls.
lgs, that remark to chinadoll was mean and uncalled for.
Reply to lorelski, I agree! Internet for Beginners: Question: What is 'DH'? What Does DH Stand For? Answer: DH commonly stands for "Dear Husband" or "Darling Husband", a form of written digital affection in the 21st century. e.g. "My DH should be back from the store in a minute".
Not twee, not condescending, and information easily accessed elsewhere. Welcome to common terms used in internet postings EVERYWHERE. lgs, so sorry you have been raised under a rock by rude people. Not the way we do it here at AT.
I'm very intrigued by the wool dryer balls and will probably try them. Thanks for the tip and comments; I'd never heard of them. Like @Tarainsevenvalleys, the smell from tennis balls bothered me in the dryer. I love the idea of sock clips, but how do you enforce family participation? I think I will make this the discussion topic at supper tonight. I can already picture my kids rolling their eyes!
I purchased dryer balls from Target a while ago - the look like spikey, soft plastic tennis balls that a dog might enjoy as a chew toy more than a useful laundry room item. I rarely use dryer sheets now as they help to reduce static and also help to keep everything moving around and everything comes out nice and soft. I also just try to dry the heavy things like jeans, towels and bedding as most of my other clothes get air-dried on a massive drying rack I got from Ikea.
I've made dryer balls for my entire family, felted, while watching tv. The best part for me is that they attract any hair, dog's, cat's, mine, my long haired husband's - and don't have to pick them off the clothes. And not using dryer sheets or any further chemicals that annoy my sensitive skin. Oh, and also the cost of all that stuff! Not much, but we are almost retired so every penny helps. You can use them as cat toys, but they'll end up covered in hair that's not quite as clean as what comes out of the wash. And just try finding them after the cat stops playing with them!
The clothes steamer does work great instead of ironing -- and I also use mine to clean the grout in my shower. Run over it with the steamer and the crud comes off with a light scrub. Probably a dedicated cleaning steamer would work even better, but this way I don't have to buy another appliance.
I fixed the problem of losing socks by buying only one kind of sock (all black). Problem of orphaned socks solved. There is always one with a hole or a lost one but it doesn't matter because you just need to grab two out of the drawer. (I also stopped folding socks)
How is saying DH condescending? Its darling husband! Igs, calm the frick down, if you think Darling Husband is condescending then maybe you should go back to the rock you live under.
....I should try dryer balls, i always have cat hair on my clothes.
I have a great set of those wool dryer balls from the Etsy shop "Bog Berry Handicraft" and I absolutely love them (they do sometimes double as cat toys...). Check them out here:
@weatherman, these are only for use in the dryer (not the washer)

Good stuff. I'll have to try these as I too hate doing laundry now that I don't have my own washer dryer. Just blogged about laundry in NYC here: http://onechicklette.com/2013/03/26/nycs-dirty-laundry/
