Chase Cameron Utley (born December 17, 1978) is a second baseman for the Philadelphia Phillies of Major League Baseball. A native of the Greater Los Angeles area, he was raised in the city of Long Beach. He was a star baseball player at Long Beach Polytechnic High School, before moving on to UCLA.
Utley is considered one of the best players of his generation, and was chosen as the second baseman on numerous all-decade teams for the 2000s. [1] He bats left-handed and throws right-handed. Since becoming a permanent fixture as the Phillies' second baseman, Utley has demonstrated versatility, spending some time at first base as well. As his fielding has improved over his career, Utley is seen in combination with Jimmy Rollins as one of the best middle-infield combinations in the NL.[2] Utley is considered by fans to be a team leader, alongside Rollins and Ryan Howard.[3]
Early professional and amateur career[edit]
Utley was drafted in the 2nd round of the 1997 Major League Baseball Draft by the Los Angeles Dodgers with the 76th pick, but did not sign. Utley played in the Cape Cod Baseball League for the Cotuit Kettleers, an amateur baseball team, in 1999 while he was still attending UCLA.[4] After his summer experience with Cotuit and college career, Utley was drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies in the first round (15th pick) of the 2000 amateur draft and played for the Phillies' farm system with the Batavia Muckdogs (A-short season; now a Cardinals affiliate) in 2000, the Clearwater Phillies (A, now Clearwater Threshers) in 2001, and the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Red Barons (AAA; now a Yankees affiliate) in 2002 and 2003.[5]
Major leagues[edit]
In his first major league start, Utley recorded his first major league hit (a grand slam) before returning to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He was recalled by the Phillies again in August 2003, to replace Plácido Polanco at second base (Polanco was moved to third to compensate for the loss of third baseman David Bell to the disabled list). Utley recorded the final at-bat at Veterans Stadium by grounding into a game-ending double play on September 28, 2003.[6]
By the end of 2004, it became evident to management that Utley was the team's future second baseman. However, a roster spot was not permanently available; his path to the majors was effectively blocked by Placido Polanco. During interleague play, he covered first base to give Jim Thome and Ryan Howard a chance to fill the role of DH, but this was not enough to keep his bat on the bench.[7]
Utley platooned with Polanco at second base during the start of the 2005 season. In June 2005, the Phillies traded Polanco to the Tigers for pitcher Ugueth Urbina and infielder Ramón Martínez. As a full-time starter Utley established himself as one of the best-hitting second basemen in the National League. He also proved his speed by stealing 16 bases in the 2005 season.[8]
Utley was a member of Team USA in the 2006 World Baseball Classic, and was selected by fans to start at second base for the National League at the 2006 Major League Baseball All-Star Game at PNC Park in Pittsburgh. In November, he traveled to Japan with other major league stars to compete against Japanese All-Stars.[9]
During the 2006 season, Utley maintained a 35-game hitting streak—the second-longest streak in Phillies history behind teammate Jimmy Rollins, who hit for 38 straight games between 2005 and 2006 (36 games in 2005 and two in 2006)and also behind a record best 56 game hitting streak by Joe DiMaggio in 1941. Utley tied Luis Castillo, who had a 35-game hitting streak in 2002, for the longest hitting streak by a second baseman. Utley's streak was also the longest for a purely left-handed hitter since Tommy Holmes' 37-game streak in 1945. As a result, Utley was named the National League Player of the Month for July 2006.[9]
On September 24, Utley hit two home runs in a 10–7 win over the Florida Marlins. It was his seventh multi-home run game of the 2006 season, tying a franchise record set in 1968 and tied by Ryan Howard in 2006. Utley combined with Jimmy Rollins in 2006 to become the first pair of middle infielders in National League history to hit 25 home runs each in the same season; Utley hit 32, while Rollins hit 25. He later received the Silver Slugger Award for being the best hitting second baseman in the National League. He also batted .309 in 2006.[9]
On January 21, 2007, the day after his wedding, Utley signed a 7-year, $85 million contract extension with the Phillies.[10]
After starting the season hot, Utley was selected by the fans to be the starting second baseman in the 2007 Major League Baseball All-Star Game, which was his second All-Star selection. However, later in the year, Utley was hit by a pitch thrown by Washington Nationals pitcher John Lannan; he broke the fourth metacarpal bone in his right hand. "I'll be back. Don't worry, guys," Utley said after the game. "It's a break, but not that bad of a break. I definitely expect to be back ... this season." Utley had successful surgery on his hand, but as a result of the surgery, he was placed on the 15-day disabled list.[11] Utley returned to the lineup on August 27, hit a home run and an RBI double, went 3 for 5, and drew a curtain call from the hometown crowd.
Utley finished the season with a .332 batting average, 22 home runs, 103 RBIs and 48 doubles (second in the National League). He helped propel the Phillies to their first playoff appearance in fourteen seasons as the team capped a dramatic comeback by clinching the National League East division title on the final day of the regular season. Utley's offensive performance also earned him a Silver Slugger Award for the second consecutive season.
After his dynamic performance in the end of 2007, Utley picked up where he left off in the beginning of the 2008 season. He was an offensive catalyst in April, sparking win after win for the Phillies as they had their first winning April since 2003, and only their fourth since their last World Series appearance. Through the month of April, Utley hit a league-leading 11 home runs – including seven in the seven games from April 17–23. He completed a streak of five consecutive games with a home run, and hit .360 (good for fifth in the National League) in 111 at-bats on his way to becoming the National League's Player of the Month.[12] His five-game home run streak tied the Phillies franchise record, shared by Bobby Abreu (May 8–12, 2005), Mike Schmidt (June 6–10, 1979) and Dick Allen (May 27 – June 1, 1969).[13][14]
Though his bat cooled a bit in May (his monthly average was .259), Utley still hit eight more home runs in the month, breaking the Phillies franchise record for home runs before June[15] – Cy Williams (1923) and Ryan Howard (2006) shared the previous mark of 18 – and knocked in 26 RBIs. When Howard hit his 15th home run on May 30, he and Utley became the first pair of Phillies to hit 15 home runs each before June. On May 13, 2008, Utley received an unexpected accolade from lifelong baseball man (and 43rd US President) George W. Bush, who stated in an interview with politico.com that Utley would be the first position player he would select if he were an MLB team owner.[16]
On June 1, Utley hit his Major League-leading 20th home run and drove in his National League-leading 50th run as part of a comeback win against the Florida Marlins that propelled the Phillies back into first place in the National League East; the 1-for-2 performance capped a productive week for Utley that earned him the National League Player of the Week Award,[17] his fifth, for the first time since April 23–29, 2007. The next night, Utley hit another home run for another streak of five games with a longball amidst a span of eight games with seven home runs (from May 25 to June 2).[18] Utley hit the first in a set of back-to-back-to-back Philadelphia home runs in a 20–2 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on June 13, along with Ryan Howard and Pat Burrell. It was the seventh time that the Phillies had hit three consecutive home runs, the first time since May 18, 2004,[19] and the fourth occurrence by any team in the 2008 Major League Baseball season.[20][21][22]
Following the Phillies' explosive victory on the 13th, Utley went a career-long 0-for-24 in the midst of a 1-for-29 slump, during which the Phillies dropped a season-high six in a row.[23] On the 21st, Utley was benched for the first time this season, ending his streak of 101 consecutive games played.[24] On the 25th, Utley broke out of his skid with a 4-for-5 performance – his first four-hit game of the season – in a 4–0 shutout over the Oakland Athletics.[25] Utley was also selected to start his third consecutive All-Star game.[26]
At the end of the 2008 regular season, with 33 home runs, 104 RBI, and a team high 177 hits, Utley helped the Phillies get into the 2008 playoffs, and win their first National League pennant since 1993 and first World Series title since 1980 (the second ever World Series title for the team). Utley batted 3 for 18 (.167) in the World Series, but hit two home runs and walked five times as well. Overall, he batted .220 in the postseason (11 for 50). The fans voted his fake and throw to home plate in Game 5 as the "This Year in Baseball Awards" Postseason Moment of the Year.[27]
Following the ensuing World Series parade on October 31, 2008, culminating in a celebration at Citizens Bank Park, Utley came up to the microphone after being introduced by Harry Kalas and said to the fans in the stadium: "World champions. World fucking champions!" The expletive was broadcast live on multiple Philadelphia television stations, which had not placed the celebration on tape delay.[28][29]
Utley underwent hip surgery in November 2008.[30]
In 2009 he was named # 6 on the Sporting News' list of the 50 greatest current players in baseball. A panel of 100 baseball people, many of them members of the Baseball Hall of Fame and winners of major baseball awards, was polled to arrive at the list.[31]
He was the starter at second base for the National League All-Star team.
In 2009 Utley led the majors in hit by pitch, with 24.[32]
Utley also had a perfect stolen-base percentage in 2009, with 23 steals.
On October 28, Utley drew a two-out walk in the first inning of Game 1, setting a record for reaching base in consecutive postseason games (26). Utley hit two home runs in his next two at-bats, the first World Series game played in the new Yankee Stadium. With both home runs coming against left-hander CC Sabathia, Utley joined Babe Ruth as the second left-handed batter to hit two home runs in a World Series game against a left-handed pitcher.[33] On November 1, Utley hit another home run against Sabathia in Game 4, and one day later, Utley hit two home runs in Game 5, giving him a total of five for the series, tying Reggie Jackson for the most home runs in a World Series. After the season, Utley was named the winner of the National League's Silver Slugger at second base for the fourth consecutive season.
In December, Sports Illustrated named Utley as the second baseman on its MLB All-Decade Team.
On June 29, Utley was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a sprained thumb. He was voted into the All-Star Game as the starter at second base (for the fifth consecutive year), but was unable to play due to injury. He won a Fielding Bible Award for his statistically based defensive excellence during the year.[34]
Utley finished the 2011 regular season having scored 54 runs, hitting safely 103 times (including 21 doubles, 6 triples, and 11 home runs), with a .259 batting average. This drop-off in performance coincided with the onset prior to the season of chronic knee problems. These conditions included patellar tendinitis, chondromalacia, and bone inflammation.[35][full citation needed]
During spring training, Utley left camp in mid-March to meet with a specialist regarding treatment of conditions in both knees, including cartilage damage.[36][full citation needed] Utley began the season on the 15-day Disabled list. He was reactivated on June 27. In his first game of the season, Utley went 3 for 5 with a solo home run in his first at bat. He finished 2012 with numbers very similar to 2011, hitting .256 with 11 HR and 45 RBI.
Utley said that his knee was feeling great prior to the 2013 Grapefruit League games.[37] On Opening Day, against the Atlanta Braves, he hit his 200th career home run.[38] In 131 games of the 2013 season, Utley batted .284 with 18 homers and 69 runs batted in.
On August 7, 2013 it was announced that Utley and the Phillies had agreed on a two-year, $27 million contract extension with multiple vesting options.
Personal life[edit]
Utley was born in Pasadena, California. His batter introductory music in Philadelphia is the song "Kashmir" by Led Zeppelin.[39]
Both Utley and his wife Jennifer are avid animal lovers, having raised over $45,000 for the Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.[40] Utley appeared on behalf of PETA in their "Adopt Don't Buy" video, encouraging people to find companion animals at shelters.[41]
Utley was a college roommate of first baseman Garrett Atkins, and the two remain close. [42]
Utley has had three dogs during his time in Philadelphia, all named Hasec for Chase in pig latin.
Utley appeared alongside teammate Ryan Howard as himself on the 2010 episode of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia "The Gang Gets Stranded in the Woods". On September 3, 2013, Utley responded to a letter written by Mac from the show years earlier.[43]

if people calls the police at 7pm for a small private party, in a Saturday night, what to expect from "party houses" in residential areas. RobertRich's comment is a good example of the extremism in SB. Asking for regulating noise for private parties is a good example of intolerance. I know someone who bought a house in Hope Ranch. One day, his dog was barking for an hour, in the early afternoon, and the neighbors called the police. They got a citation and their address was listed in the HR local neighborhood paper. Does it makes sense to you go to those extremes? I think, in SB, people needs to learn to be more tolerant. To only report or complaint about serious issues, or when the party becomes a weekly problem, like the party houses mentioned in the article.

The article does not mentions that this dinner will be served by a wonderful organization: Organic Soup Kitchen, thanks to the hard work of Anthony Carrocio, many families will be able to enjoy a thanksgiving dinner today. If you would like to help, please visit: http://organicsoupkitchen.org/what-we.... I already donated money and volunteered for the event.

why was this article showcased on the front page of the Independent? it is like making the guy felt proud of his past actions. Even the title shows up the admiration the writer feels for him: Surfer, Robber, Writer, Lifer, it make it sounds like he was/is a great man. Oh well, I might be wrong but even the part where the writer describes her trip to see him in prison sounds too "romantic", like she wants to looks sexy for him; she also knows he will be reading the article too. Lets wait for the next article, he is probably going to get several compassionate visits from lonely women who sees him as a victim. He was a criminal and he is paying for his past actions. He got a chance to change and he destroyed his future one more time. There is nobody to blame but himself for his wrongdoing, so do not try to make him looks like a victim of society.

sometimes, a parent might force a kid to become a gay. I have seen a women raise her son like a girl (let his hair grow very long, dress him up like a girl, treat him like a girl, ...) and he indeed looks like a girl already but at least he still plays like a boy with other kids. How much damage is this mother going to cause to her son because of some psychological issues she has after not having the girl of her dreams? sad, very sad. Hopefully the boy will be strong enough to be himself and not some girlish creation his mom taught him to be. A gay will know at the right moment he/she is gay, then deal with that. Luckily, the modern world is changing the way people thinks and behave towards gays but there are still strong issues with that, among religious people, or intolerant governments. People needs to be educated to be tolerant and to understand that every person has the right to be itself.

Yesterday, I got an email from an old neighbor. She has access to email because she has a friend who works for the cuban government that allows her to check/send emails a few minutes every day, mostly at midnight. She can not writes anything related with Fidel or news about Cuba because she won't be able to use her friend's email anymore to communicate with her daughter. She is the only contact I have with my mother, who still lives in Cuba at the moment, and she is the only resource I have to say hi to my mom. Lets go back to her email. I asked her about the rest of the people from my building, when I used to live there. Her answer was depressing. Almost everybody passed away. No only the elderly, which is normal, but in Cuba they die younger (50-60 years old); but almost all of the young kids I grew up with passed away as well. The ones that are still healthy and alive are the ones, like myself, who decided to leave that country. Does that tells you something about the good cuban health system and life style?. It is good if you pay in dollars but not if you go to a regular hospital or medical clinic. The only way to be healthy, is by giving "presents" to "friend doctors" who will see you correctly. My father passed away waiting for attention in a hospital. He was having a stroke and nobody came to see him until it was too late. There was a student trying to insert a tube through his throat to do a tummy cleaning while he was getting worst by seeing another old patient dying next to his bed, who was getting the same treatment. Like a terror movie, you see when they kill the person next to you and you are sure you will be next but you can not run! My mother was traumatized forever, she does not wants to go to a hospital anymore after that horrible experience. Hank, I think Sanity was being sarcastic, he mentioned something that is a good idea for those thinking about doing business in cuba: DON'T!.
Posted on August 23 at 11:47 p.m.
Perhaps they want to use Che as an example for the dictators, to send them this type of message: do not worry, you can always hide in Cuba if things gets ugly. Other than that reason for the documentary, I agreed with every single comment from Hank. I consider myself one of the victims of the communism, who grew up in Cuba as a child repeating those slogans they brain washed us/all the children that were born after the revolution: "Pioneros por el Comunismo. Seremos como el Che" (To build Communism - We will be like Che!). No thanks, I don't want to be like Che. They should display this other documentary, the other side of the story about the real Che Guevara. It is called "El otro lado de un ídolo" (the other side of an idol) by Agustín Blázquez. The documentary has valuable testimonials from the victims of Che Guevara and witnesses of his crimes. Only the documentary supporting the cuban revolution and the story they want you to heard was shown on television. Agustin's documentary was never shown on TV, they ignored him. For those of you who wants to support the cuban revolution, after watching the documentary, please do no let them to sell you Che as an idol. The Libya relation with Che and the cuban revolution? since both regime were similar, perhaps the next question should be: could the same thing happen in Cuba? I hope so. It will be great to see a revolution in Cuba and get the Castro brothers and his family out of the power forever.

I completely agreed with you Chester_Arthur.
Lets give some Pepto-Bismol to EZK (he is another big fan of Ann Bardach) before he starts publishing non-sense comments again.
Posada Carriles was declared innocent by an US jury in a city that has not relation with Cubans from the exile so nobody can say it was not a fair trial. Additionally, he has not been convicted of the terrorist crime, so nobody should call him a terrorist because there is not proof of anything.

Ham and Potatoes Au Gratin Recipe
This is one of the dishes Grandma served to our family during the holidays. Now, when the family gathers and I prepare this for my grandchildren, memories of those special times at Grandma's house fill my mind. I usually double this recipe, because the leftovers are fabulous when warmed in the microwave.
- 2 cups sliced peeled potatoes, cooked
- 1 cup diced cooked ham
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
- 1/3 cup butter, cubed
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1-1/2 cups milk
- 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- Dash white pepper
- Minced fresh parsley
- In a greased 1-qt. baking dish, combine potatoes, ham and onion; set aside.
- In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat; stir in flour until smooth. Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until mixture is thickened and bubbly. Add cheese, salt and pepper; stir until the cheese is melted. Pour over potato mixture and stir gently to mix.
- Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until bubbly. Garnish with parsley. Yield: 2 servings.

Oklahoma AD Joe Castiglione confirmed to the Tulsa World that the SEC has shown interest in the Sooners, but that OU will follow Texas.
— Wes Rucker (@wesrucker247) June 10, 2010
The Chattanooga Times Free Press's Wes Rucker (a very reliable guy) says that Oklahoma's AD Joe Castiglione told the Tulsa World about the SEC talking with OU about inclusion. No word on whether an official offer was extended (I highly doubt it), but Oklahoma has decided to follow Texas wherever it goes. So you can forget about the Sooners joining the SEC. The only possible Big 12 entrant into the SEC at this point appears to be Texas A&M, who may or may not have pledged unity with Texas and Texas Tech already. Gene Stallings is on Texas A&M's board and has been pushing hard for an SEC move, something he apparently confirmed to a Phoenix-area sports radio show today. So while the Tulsa World doesn't have anything on its website about OU and the SEC yet, it does repeat a report from TMZ that Oklahoma State is as good as gone to the Pac-10. OSU would only comfirm that its president will issue a statement later today. UPDATE: 2:23 PM Here's the quote from Castiglione: While Castiglione also confirmed that the SEC has shown interest in the Sooners, OU's position is that it's going to stick with Texas wherever the Longhorns go because of the long history between the two schools. "I think it would be a horrendous decision for OU and Texas to break up," Castiglione said. "We're going to stick together if it's at all possible." UPDATE 2:32 PM The Oklahoman's sources inside Oklahoma State (who I would believe far more than I would TMZ) say that not only is OSU to the Pac-10 not a done deal, but that OSU hasn't even talked to the Pac-10 and won't until Nebraska-to-the-Big-Ten becomes official and public. They have only heard from Texas officials that they'd be a part of any movement the Longhorns make, which makes it sound like Texas isn't as innocent as Chip Brown has been making it out to be. Another strike against TMZ's source: it believes the ultimate end game of conference expansion down the road is a playoff. Right.

The Deal
- $30 for $60 worth of farm-to-table dinner
- Click to see the dinner menu
At Litchfield's—located inside the iconic Arizona resort, The Wigwam—the first big decision is where to sit. The romantic dining room seats 80 people alone, while more space awaits diners inside the lounge or on a meticulously landscaped veranda. Over on the outdoor patio, aromas of citrus and the restaurant's mesquite-stoked grill intermingle in the night air. A communal farm table for larger parties is overseen by the Chef de Cuisine himself, Chris Knouse, who prepares meals in a cooking fireplace right before his guests' eyes.
The farm table is apropos for Litchfield's, where the chef specializes in a seasonal dishes made with farm-to-table and locally sourced produce and meat. Entrees range from cast iron burgers topped with pecan-smoked bacon to organic Scottish salmon served with wild arugula. Wine by the glass or bottle from Litchfield's extensive list can accompany feasts or complicate staring contests, as can cocktails such as the prickly pear margarita, a refreshing blend of tequila and prickly pear syrup.

The Saints visit Old Trafford on Wednesday night in their first away game under new manager Mauricio Pochettino, who was brought in, much to many people's surprise, in place of Nigel Adkins.
"I think everyone was shocked when Nigel Adkins went, but ultimately players have got a job to do and the new manager will put his ideas across and players will just get on with it," said Giggs.
"Southampton have been in decent form and on a good run; it'll be another tough game for us. They gave us a good game earlier in the season so we'll need to play well.
"Every game at this time is tough but there are no easy games in this league. You've got to perform well in every match and you want to do that for your own satisfaction and for your own form. You want to play well because it gives you confidence going into the next game."

Health Education Leads to More Eye Exams in Group at Risk for Vision Loss
NEI Press Release
National Institutes of Health
National Eye Institute
December 6, 1999
Researchers at Teachers College, Columbia University and Albert Einstein College of Medicine have determined that health education programs can substantially increase the rates of dilated eye exams for African Americans with diabetes, the first step in reducing the risk of vision loss. The results were published in the December 1999 issue of the American Journal of Public Health.
"These findings clearly show that African Americans with diabetes who receive educational messages about the importance of dilated eye exams are more likely to seek an eye exam than those who do not receive those messages," said Carl Kupfer, MD, director of the National Eye Institute, one of the Federal government's National Institutes of Health and the sponsor of the study. "It is important that people with diabetes receive dilated eye exams because early detection and treatment of diabetic eye disease can prevent vision loss. The early detection of diabetic eye disease, as well as laser surgery when needed, has helped preserve vision in about 90 percent of those who might otherwise lose their vision."
There were 280 African American participants involved in the study, according to Charles Basch, Ph.D., of Columbia University's Teachers College, who directed the study along with Elizabeth Walker, DNSC, RN, of the Diabetes Research Center at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. "We found that about twice as many people in the group that received health education messages received timely eye examinations compared to the group that received usual, standard medical care for their diabetes," Dr. Basch said. "The differences between the two groups are very large. In terms of the effectiveness of a health education program, the results are dramatic."
The health education program had three components: a booklet, motivational videotape, and telephone counseling. Both the booklet and videotape emphasized that people with diabetes should have a dilated eye exam at least once a year. The telephone counseling involved one-on-one problem-solving and discussions about each person's reasons for, and/or objections to, having a dilated eye exam. The booklet and videotape were mailed to those in the health education group, and the telephone outreach was initiated about one week later. Six months after the study began, the medical records of all study participants were assessed to find out how many had received a dilated eye exam.
Dr. Walker said the study reminds us what an important communication tool the telephone can be. "Calling people with diabetes and motivating them to have their eyes examined could help prevent vision loss, with its severe economic and quality of life implications," she said.
"There's been a tremendous investment in medical research to understand the natural history of diabetic retinopathy, and a tremendous investment in clinical research to develop effective treatment," Dr. Basch said. "Now the emphasis has to be making people aware of the importance of receiving annual dilated eye exams. If this happens, it can have a dramatic influence on the health of Americans."
Nearly half of the nation's estimated 16 million people with diabetes will develop some degree of diabetic retinopathy, the most common form of diabetic eye disease. Other eye problems that can develop in people with diabetes include cataract and glaucoma. Diabetic retinopathy damages the tiny blood vessels in the retina, the light-sensitive tissue that lines the back of the eye. People with diabetes are 25 times more likely to become blind than those without diabetes; diabetic eye disease can cause as many as 25,000 new cases of blindness every year. African Americans suffer a 40 percent higher frequency of severe visual impairment caused by diabetic retinopathy as compared with Whites, and twice the rate of blindness.

Mimi Hughes: Diving in to Protect the River
Mimi Hughes is a marathon swimmer. So in 1999, when the 43-year-old reading teacher and mother of four from Taft, Tennessee, wanted to promote public awareness about protecting the waters of the Tennessee River, she plunged right in—to the river, of course.
Hughes began her aquatic trek at Forks of the River in Knoxville, Tennessee, where the French Broad and Holston rivers join to form the Tennessee. With the help of support boats manned by various TVA Watershed Teams along the way, she swam the 1,049- kilometer (652-mile) length of the Tennessee River—equivalent to the mileage from Nashville to Dallas—over five summers. On July 24, 2003, Hughes completed the final 211-kilometer (131-mile) segment through Kentucky Reservoir to Paducah, Kentucky, where the Tennessee joins the Ohio River.
Before swimming the last leg of her quest, which she named Tennessee Riverswim, Hughes thanked TVA Watershed Team members for their support. She wrote in her online journal, "As excited as I am about the finish, it is sad that the end cannot be a reunion of all the people at TVA that made this swim possible. TVA has been as supportive as my family and I am indebted to so many people within the organization. I learned so much from my captains and others. Perhaps I enriched their lives as much as they enriched mine. Maybe some of them will be able to make it to the finish and join in the celebration. If that is not possible, please know that I kindly remember all of you and carry you with me in my thoughts and in my heart."
During her five-summer swim, Hughes swam past trash and natural debris as well as other pollutants, many of which had been illegally dumped into the river or onto the shore. She purposely spread out the swim over such a long period of time, she said, to make the public focus on river pollution each summer. "I want to draw attention to the incredible resource that this river provides for everyone who lives in the Tennessee Valley," said Hughes. "I believe it's everybody's responsibility to help keep the river clean."
Reaching the river's end in 2003 did not mark the end of Hughes's commitment to promote a cleaner Tennessee River. Today she devotes considerable time to river cleanup efforts and travels around the Tennessee Valley sharing the environmental lessons learned from her amazing journey.
Added Hughes, "Many people take the river for granted and may not realize that their actions, not just on or near the water, but anywhere in the watershed, can be harmful to the river. Whether it's preventing soil erosion along streams, closely following instructions for lawn chemicals, or just helping keep trash and pollution out of the river, everyone can do something to help."

By Jason Elmquist
STILLWATER, Okla. —
Call it a whim. A very successful whim.
Stillwater High track athlete Abbie Woods has been a dominate force on the track for the Lady Pioneers this spring, but just recently was given the chance to venture into field events.
The result? A first-place finish in Thursday's Stillwater High Invitational at Pioneer Stadium in the long jump — in just her second competition in the event.
"This was only her second time to do it. We just thought on a whim that she might be explosive enough to do it, so we let her first do it at Ponca City where she jumped 17-plus," said SHS track and field coach Rusty Atkins, who mentioned he'd also thought of having her compete in the high jump if she wasn't so important in track events. "... She's jumping well and she's probably going to have a chance to do it at the regional (meet) and hopefully qualify for the state meet."
Woods jumped 17 feet, 9 inches — nearly a foot longer than her competition — and even had a jump of over 18 feet not count due to just barely scratching on the leap.
"To take first in my second meet ever to jump and to win at home is amazing. Hopefully it will bode well for me heading into regionals and state," Woods said.
Woods also led a sweep by the Lady Pioneers — which finished third in the team standings — in the 400-meter run. Woods won the event with a time of 1:01.09, followed by fellow Stillwater runners Chablee Sanders, second in a time of 1:02.55 and Kaitlyn Cotton, third at 1:04.90.
"It's really awesome. We all train together, and push each other, so I'm really glad we were all able to stick together — and prove that we are one of the top three people in the 4x400 relay, so we're going into that relay really strong," said Woods, who anchored the 1,600-meter relay team which finished second.
Woods' first-place finish in the long jump wasn't the only gold medal earned by the Lady Pioneers from the northwest corner of the football stadium. Becca Worthy won yet another pole vault title when she matched her personal best by clearing 9 feet, 6 inches.
"I met my mark today, but because of some factors I wasn't able to get a new personal best," Worthy said. "But hopefully at regionals I can get my pole situation worked out and be able to contend."
The day was a tricky one for Worthy. Not only did she have to handle some high winds — which plays possibly the biggest role in the pole vault event — but she also had to borrow a longer pole late in the event.
"That's the problem, she's progressing so fast and we're trying to find poles that she can use," Atkins said. "Right now she's blowing through them and the ones that are correct for her, she's already out-grown them in a matter of weeks. That just tells you how dedicated she's been to the sport and how much she's progressed, and we're going to have to do some wheeling and dealing to get her one for regionals and probably state."
For the Pioneers, sophomore Brandon Prather finished third with a jump of 21 feet, 11 inches on his first attempt. It was the first time Prather, who has been struggling with shin-splints the past month, did not win the event.
"I knew coming into here that I wasn't going to be jumping my best because I'm battling shin-splints right now, but I didn't think I'd finish this bad," Prather said. "I'm just going to rest my shins a little bit now and get ready for regionals."
While Prather was disappointed not to get a first-place medal at the home meet, there were several SHS boys that did come away with gold. Ty Smith won the 200-meter run in a time of 22.84 as the Pioneers finished second in the team standings.
Noah Gade, the Class 6A state cross country champion who will join the reigning national champion Oklahoma State cross country team, blew out his competition in the 3,200-meter event. Gade logged a time of 9:41.72 — finishing ahead of teammate Bo Frohock, who finished second, by nearly 50 seconds.
In the 3,200-meter relay, the Pioneers got a furious push at the end by anchor leg Sam Smith, who overcame a deficit to give SHS a victory with a time of 8:36.31. The boys 400-meter relay team just barely missed taking first themselves, settling for second at 42.591 — just behind the 42.53 set by the Enid team. The SHS boys 800-meter relay team also took second with a time of 1:30.75, while the Lady Pioneers' 400-meter relay finished third in a time of 52.31.

Recipe from Good Food magazine, July 2009
Comments, questions and tips
I was inspired by this recipe and the ingredients present in my home, rather than following it exactly, so I can't really rate the recipe as I didn't really make it. However, I really loved the what I made based on this, so I thought I'd share my version here: I made wedges out of larger potatoes rather than using whole baby potatoes, I used cumin powder rather than seeds, and added coriander powder as well. I was quite liberal with the chili, cumin and coriander.
For the dip, I just used the juice of half a lemon and didn't include the lime, and I added a couple of cloves of garlic, a handful of fresh coriander, and salt, and put all of it through the food processor rather than stirring in avocado chunks.
It was goooooooood :)
I made the dip exactly as the recipe said, but the result had a rather more runny consistency that I would have preferred and the citrus flavour was too overpowering for my liking. Maybe my avocados (I used 4) were too small. Anyway, if I were to repeat this recipe I would use half the amount of lemon & lime juices and half the amount of yogurt and then add more after tasting to check!
I made the dip exactly as said but used sweet potato wedges with the cumin and chilli as I'm a big fan of sweet potato. Used 3 big sweet potatoes cut into wedges with the oil and a teaspoon and a half of cumin and same again chilli powder and just oven cooked for about 40 minutes. They went down a treat with the dip as part of a mexican banquet style meal.

Can I install roms for the HOX on the HOX+
Hello all. I've been trying to find an answer for this all day so I figured I'd ask here. Is it okay to flash a rom built for the HOX onto the + version? I want to flash cyanogenmod onto my phone, but it looks like only the HOX is supported. Even searching specifically for HOX+ roms usually leads to roms built for the HOX. I just don't want to kill my phone flashing something that's not made for it. Thanks!

DATES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments on or before May 3, 2002. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) requires that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) provide interested Federal agencies and the public an early opportunity to comment on information collection requests. OMB may amend or [[Page 9723]] waive the requirement for public consultation to the extent that public participation in the approval process would defeat the purpose of the information collection, violate State or Federal law, or substantially interfere with any agency's ability to perform its statutory obligations. The Leader, Regulatory Information Management Group, Office of the Chief Information Officer, publishes that notice containing proposed information collection requests prior to submission of these requests to OMB. Each proposed information collection, grouped by office, contains the following: (1) Type of review requested, e.g. new, revision, extension, existing or reinstatement; (2) Title; (3) Summary of the collection; (4) Description of the need for, and proposed use of, the information; (5) Respondents and frequency of collection; and (6) Reporting and/or Recordkeeping burden. OMB invites public comment. The Department of Education is especially interested in public comment addressing the following issues: (1) Is this collection necessary to the proper functions of the Department; (2) will this information be processed and used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate; (4) how might the Department enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (5) how might the Department minimize the burden of this collection on the respondents, including through the use of information technology. Dated: February 26, 2002. John Tressler, Leader, Regulatory Information Management, Office of the Chief Information Officer. Office of the Undersecretary Type of Review: New.

As much as I hate the Ravens, I must admit that they are serious about their team's progress. This is a division leader that fired their DC. Just imagine if they had our record.
I feel your pain. I had Rice last year. It was infuriating. Luckily I hit majorly on WRs in the middle rounds/free agency with Jordy, Vincent Jackson, Kenny Britt and Victor Cruz to make up for it. There were several weeks when Rice would get the ball like 12 times.
Cam Cameron used to be the head coach at IU when I was in middle school. Got to talk to him on his radio show. He was there when Antwan randle el was the qb. He was a bad mofo.

Complete biological and particulate filtering in one compact package. Connect to any submersible or centrifugal pump on the intake side and drop into a tank or pond for instant filtration. All plastic construction with 3 1/2" O.D. (4" w/sleeve) and 1" PVC pipe ends. Use PVC pipe and fitting to make your own multi-filter manifold.
We also offer them pre-filled with either coral, lava rock or activated carbon. For heavy duty biological filtering, we recommend one inch of filter length per gpm.
Coral cells use Florida crushed 3–4 mm coral, great for pH buffering. Activated carbon cells use coconut shell carbon for polishing the water crystal clear. The lava cells are for applications where large amounts of waste would foul conventional filters, such as koi ponds.
All cells come with thick, Dacron® pre-filtered sleeves. Media can be easily removed for cleaning. Add your own media to the empty cells. Made in USA.
