MILWAUKEE -- For the second time in as many months, Padres third baseman Chase Headley has been named the National League Player of the Month.
In September, Headley hit .324 with a .410 on-base percentage and had nine home runs and 30 RBIs. It follows an August in which he hit .306 with 10 home runs and had 31 RBIs.
"There's been so many more opportunities," Headley said of getting chances to hit with runners on base, the result of an improved overall offense. "The second half has been incredibly enjoyable, especially being around these guys."
Headley is the first player in franchise to knock in 30 or more runs in a month twice.
"It's a great honor, again. How often do you get to say that?" said Padres manager Bud Black. "Chase just kept going. Teams kept pitching him tougher, and he kept getting his hits."
Ken Caminiti is the only other player in franchise history to be named the NL Player of the Month twice in the same season (August-September, 1996).
Headley got a ringing endorsement from Brewers manager Ron Roenicke before Monday's game at Miller Park.
"To have that [production] in San Diego, that's pretty amazing," Roenicke said. "He needs to be talked about a lot more than he has been. To have that kind of year in that place? Phenomenal."
Going into Tuesday's game against the Brewers, Headley is hitting .283 with a career-best 31 home runs and 113 RBIs (also a career best) in 159 games. He leads the NL in RBIs, one ahead of Milwaukee's Ryan Braun.

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. — When Superstorm Sandy struck along the East Coast, a Michigan insurance company felt the full wrath of the hurricane's punch.
Traverse City-based Hagerty Insurance — the largest insurer of classic cars worldwide – is now dealing with the storm's afterrmath.
Hagerty insures 10,000 classic cars on Long Island, N.Y., alone, and the company already has received 1,100 Sandy-related car claims, as well as claims for about 50 boats.
Storm claims already are valued at $10 million and counting, said company President and CEO McKeel Hagerty.
"There are no million dollar cars," he said. "The average cost is under $50,000."
Hagerty Claims Assistant Manager Michelle Ayers said calls from customers began Oct. 29 and continued steadily through the next two weeks as evacuees returned to their neighborhoods.
"It was everything from 'I just lost everything I've worked hard for my entire life — it's all gone' to 'What do I do from here, where do I go from here?' Ayers said. "We talked a lot about, obviously, their cars, because it's like a family member to them. A lot of the people I talked to, anyway, (cars) had been passed down from generation to generation."
Hagerty said the company immediately responded by working with salvage companies and adjusters in an effort to flush out car engines that had been immersed in water. Hagerty received three times as many claims from Sandy as it did from Hurricane Katrina, but damage characteristics are similar.
"The thing they have in common is they are really flood more than wind damage," Hagerty said
About 70 percent of the claims represent total losses, but 50 to 70 percent of those owners want to keep their cars after the insurance payout, Hagerty said.
"They keep the salvage and they're going to re-restore the cars," he said. "To me, that's a little light at the end of the tunnel."
Hagerty itself is insured against catastrophic events like Hurricane Sandy.
"Katrina taught us a lot about that," he said.

You know the cliché: "You won't die; you'll just wish you had." If there were ever an ailment for which this adage rings far too true, it's ciguatera.
Ironically, this most common form of nonbacterial fish poisoning around the world remains a mystery to most people - including those who particularly need to know: saltwater anglers.
And while few might know about ciguatera (pronounced sigWAHterra), no one who's ever contracted the ailment, symptoms of which can recur for years, will ever forget it.
"A living hell" - that's the phrase that Palm Beach Post staff writer Kevin Deutsch used to describe the "agony at sea" that a group of anglers went through for eight days after eating a meal of delicious yellowfin grouper. "Stuck out at sea, the men wasted away for eight days before feeling well enough to venture back," the reporter writes. He quotes one angler, who dropped 14 pounds, as saying, "It was the worst I ever felt" and "If I touched anything cold, it burned my skin."
A Texas woman who contracted ciguatera told msnbc.com that the symptoms were "horrible ? I couldn't walk on the tile floor; it felt like it was burning me."
Nervous System Gone Haywire
"It was a great lunch," recalls Julian Pepperell of his coral trout dinner in a northeastern Australian restaurant. He rates the colorful Indo-Pacific grouper as "one of the best-eating (and highest-priced) fish on the reef."
That night at about 1 a.m., he "awoke with intense muscle aching in my thighs and buttocks. I felt like I had run a marathon and could hardly get out of bed." But staying in bed wasn't an option: Pepperell also suffered acute nausea and diarrhea. Then his palms and soles began to itch excruciatingly, turning bright red.
By the next evening, a weak Pepperell had recovered enough to stop for a beer at the local watering hole. "Soon, my palms and soles started to itch and turn red again, and then the penny dropped! Alcohol triggers symptoms of ciguatera poisoning. And I had eaten coral trout, a species implicated in the disease."
Pepperell would know of ciguatera since he's one of Australia's pre-eminent fisheries scientists. Most victims - and physicians - don't have a clue, however, when they find themselves blindsided by a double whammy of gastrointestinal explosions coupled with a nervous system gone haywire.
Bizarre Symptoms
Although 50,000 or so ciguatera cases are reported worldwide each year, health officials estimate several times that number go unreported or misdiagnosed. Frequently, neurological symptoms lead physicians to diagnose the onset of multiple sclerosis.
One reason Pepperell didn't guess what ailed him on that first night: the absence of the prevalent, most "classic" ciguatera symptom - hot and cold reversal. That means a victim senses an ice cube as if were a burning-hot coal or, conversely, a warm bath as a tub of ice water.
But ciguatera presents with a confounding variety of (sometimes bizarre) symptoms, especially neurologically. In Pepperell's case, "a weird thing I experienced for the next several months was a sensation when I stood up and took a few steps - I felt as if I'd stepped into a hole, so my body didn't seem to register that my feet were actually making contact with the ground!" Pepperell says he learned later that "this definitely can be another symptom of ciguatera, [stemming from its] effect on peripheral nerves."

Fiber has been in the news lately and is much discussed on what it can and cannot do in relation to your health, in nutrient therapy, and what amount is required to maintain proper nutrition as well as its dependency to other vitamins.
All nutrients, including fiber, should be taken in balance with other nutrients since certain synergies and interdependence exist. This does not mean that mega-dose vitamin therapy should be discounted - on the contrary - but it should be done under supervision and with due reference to practical problems that might occur, as well as the state of your general health.
For more information on fiber - please click here and find the specific page dealing with fiber.
Although we at Zest for Life believe strongly in diet supplements, as well as a host of other alternative therapies, we also believe that each person must follow a practical and responsible diet and lifestyle program - with everything in balance - and that all different fields of medicine and alternative therapies, have their own place to assist you in reaching the perfect balance in your life.
Some western medical practitioners will publicly scoff at the idea of alternative and nutritional therapies, but most of them are broadminded enough to accept that these therapies can be powerful supplementary treatments in assisting the cure of illnesses and ailments.
Although this site is a commercial site, selling a selection of vitamins and nutritional products, we also spent time to develop a section dispensing information on the different types of nutritional ingredients. To have a look - simply click this hyperlink.

My wife died about three years after diagnosis with frontal lobe dementia, a neurological disease similar to Alzheimer's. I cared for her at home for the first year, until that put me into the hospital for 11 days (my third hospitalization-first was my birth, second my tonsils). The day I went into the hospital, La Verna went into a nursing home, where she spent her last two years. For the next two years I visited her all but two days, although I'm not sure she was very aware of me the last year. She's been gone over four years now, but I still tear-up just about every day.
"Early onset Alzheimer's Disease..EOAD for short knocked on our door over 7 years ago and came in and wont leave till it had stolen my husband away from me, Mick and I met late in life on a blind date 18 years ago this July 1st,About 8/9 years ago there was warning signs looking back now I know this but did not know this at the time.
EOAD – How these four letters changed our lives forever. EOAD – I had never heard of this before but, I know I will never forget it. Early-Onset Alzheimer's Disease is the name given to Alzheimer's Disease when a person younger than 65 is diagnosed. My husband's age was a major obstacle in just trying to get a doctor to seriously consider his memory problems at the age of 48 following cancer surgery. I wish now that I had been much more persistent then and not waited until he had a rapid decline. But, how were we to know that this could and would happen, especially at his age?

Roger Clemens' trial on charges that he lied to Congress and obstructed an investigation into his alleged use of performance-enhancing drugs has been delayed three months, a judge ruled on Wednesday, according to a report by Reuters. Clemens' trial is now slated for July 6, 2011.
Clemens' lawyer, Rusty Hardin, said the defense needs more time to go over tens of thousands of pages of documents turned over by prosecutors and that they needed to retain an expert witness to testify on the seven-time Cy Young Award winner's behalf, Reuters added.
Clemens' defense team had been pushing to start the trial -- originally slated for April 5 -- at some point in September, while prosecutors recommended June. But U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton said he had other cases pending, so he set July 6 for the start of jury selection, according to Reuters, which wrote that the trial is expected to last about six weeks.
While under oath in February 2008, Clemens denied accusations by former trainer Brian McNamee that he used steroids and human-growth hormone to the House of Representatives' Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. Then, in August, Clemens pleaded not guilty in federal court to three counts of making false statements, two counts of perjury and one count of obstructing the U.S. Congress.

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. — Health department officials in a Lake Michigan county received about a dozen calls reporting illnesses consistent with exposure to raw sewage after children played in a public park's contaminated splash pad.
Reports of gastrointestinal illnesses and one rash complaint came from people who played in the water at Clinch Park in Traverse City, Mich., on June 29 and June 30.
City workers discovered June 30 at mid-morning that sewage backed up when a pump station failed and pushed raw sewage into an underground reservoir that feeds sprinklers for the splash pad, rain arc, and mister.
"We can't absolutely positively say they were caused by the splash pad, but all had symptoms consistent with exposure to raw sewage," said Rose Ann Davis, spokeswoman for the Grand Traverse County's health department.
Symptoms that could indicate exposure to raw sewage include rash, vomiting, fever, abdominal pain, diarrhea, infections in open wounds, and jaundice, a yellowing of the eyes and skin which may indicated damage to the liver, health department officials said.
None of those who reported illness after using the splash pad required hospitalization, but the health department instructed people to keep a close eye on those who fell ill. Some of the illnesses that can develop from exposure to raw sewage may take up to two weeks to incubate.
"It's raw sewage, it ... can contain all sorts of things," Davis said.
Nicole Miller of Buckley said she believes splash pad contamination problems began before June 29. Her eight-year-old son began vomiting after he played in the splash pad for about three hours on June 27.
"I'm certain it was the splash pad," Miller said. "He was violently ill for six and a half hours, and we reported it to the health department the next day."

text: I thought this first live was so awkward. There are many good singers this year but the song choices, the production and the style were horrible tonight. Really, what they (the mentors) were thinking of? Britney Spears was specially bad as a mentor. When I saw what Carly Rose Sonenclar was wearing the first thought that came to my mind was "Hit me baby one more time" . That Flo Rida song was an awful choice for her! Still, even with the poor choice of music and staging, the girl is a star and she did good. But she can do so much better than this. Best voice in competition, IMHO.

WASHINGTON — The Democrats and Republicans may be worlds apart on most things, but at their headquarters just two blocks away from each other on Capitol Hill, each is confronting the same question: Have political parties lost their purpose?
In the wake of two presidential defeats, the Republican National Committee on Monday unveiled what it is calling its Growth and Opportunity Project, which is an effort to take the existing party engine and give it a top-to-bottom tuneup.
"There's no one reason we lost. Our message was weak; our ground game was insufficient; we weren't inclusive; we were behind in both data and digital; and our primary and debate process needed improvement," RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said Monday. "So, there's no one solution. There's a long list of them."
The solutions include a $10 million effort to better connect with minority communities, moving up the 2016 convention to as early as June so that the party nominee can tap general-election funding earlier, and limiting the number of primary debates to 10 or 12, rather than the nearly two dozen that took place in 2012.
The report also recommends outsourcing to "friends and allies" at least some of the responsibilities that used to be considered the party's job. They include recruiting minority and women candidates, training grass-roots activists, registering voters and gathering and analyzing data.
Even the winning side of last year's presidential election has been doing some reexamination.
This past week has seen President Obama's old campaign operation relaunching itself as Organizing for Action, building a new political machine outside the Democratic National Committee and causing some quiet consternation among party traditionalists.
After Obama's first election, his campaign operation, then known as Obama for America, decamped to the DNC. But that, as the president acknowledged last week, turned out to be a disappointment, when it proved unable to re-create its magic for the 2010 midterm elections.

CHICAGO -- Dusty Baker said Thursday he is leaning toward San Francisco pitcher Jason Schmidt starting for the National League team in the All-Star Game.
Baker, who will manage the National League team in next Tuesday's game at U.S. Cellular Field, said he talked to Giants pitching coach Dave Righetti about Schmidt's availability.
The right-hander is 8-4 with a 2.30 ERA in 17 games, including a three-hit shutout against the Cubs on April 30. That game was Schmidt's first game back after missing nearly a week because of the death of his mother.
"It'll probably come down to Russ Ortiz, Kerry Wood, who pitched (Wednesday) and he's going to be strong, or Jason Schmidt, who I think is pitching today or (Friday)," Baker said. "Those are probably the guys I'm considering first. They are the most rested.
"Right now I might be leaning toward Jason Schmidt. It's been a tough year for him. His mother died earlier. It'd be a tremendous honor for him and a reward. It's one of those three guys."
Both Schmidt and Ortiz pitched for Baker last year to help the Giants reach the World Series.
"(Schmidt) has been dealing, plus he and Russ are both big reasons why I'm sitting here talking about it," Baker said. "I'd like to reward him. As a manager, there's not many ways you can reward a player for what they do for you. That would be a tremendous gesture to him."
Managing the All-Star Game is considered a reward and is supposed to be enjoyable, too, yet Baker has been criticized this week for comments he made regarding black and Latin players. Can he enjoy the event?
"It is supposed to be an enjoyable situation," Baker said. "Things are what they are and you have to deal with it. It's put me in an uncomfortable situation on a couple matters.
"One, the comments I made have made it uncomfortable, but you realize that when you make the comments and you mean what you say," he said. "Secondly, was the way the roster rounded out and not having the opportunity to take (Florida's Dontrelle) Willis for the All-Star team. He's my next pick.
"I'm just going to have a good time with it and manage the game because the game is fun. That's what we're there for. We're not there to talk about me, we're there to talk about the game and to play the game."
Speaking of the game, this year will be the first time that the winner of the All-Star Game will determine home-field advantage in the World Series.
"It's my luck that this is the year that it counts," Baker said. "Since it counts, you're going to play the game to win. I'm also going to try to be as fair as possible and get everybody in the game that I can because guys are traveling thousands of miles to try to win the game. I realize it does count."
Anaheim manager Mike Scioscia, who will manage the American League team, downplayed the importance of home-field advantage. Scioscia's Angels beat the Giants in seven games last fall, and the deciding game was played in Anaheim.
"I'm not as much a believer in home-field advantage deciding the World Series as some people are and as some statistics might point to," Scioscia said. "(This doesn't mean) If the American League wins (the All-Star Game), whoever the American League rep is in the World Series will all of a sudden win the World Series."
Baker also said the players are competitive by nature.
"Guys are going to play hard," Baker said. "They wouldn't be All-Stars if they didn't play hard. Most of these guys have been All-Stars most of their life. This isn't their first All-Star Game. It might be their first Major League All-Star Game but it isn't their first All-Star Game.
"If a guy has that much pride and inner drive to succeed and make it to where he is that translates to an All-Star Game. I think these guys will have the same attitude and play the same way if they were in an old-timers game. Most of these guys, that's all they know is to play hard and to win."
However, both managers felt the rule that requires each team to be represented should be reconsidered.
"That's something that's been questioned for a long, long time," Baker said. "I wouldn't be opposed to it necessarily, but I think teams in particular towns would want representatives. It's their kids, their fans and everybody in that town looks forward to seeing their local heroes. That's what the All-Star Game is all about."
Baker, whose Chicago Cubs opened a four-game series against Atlanta on Thursday, said Los Angeles pitcher Kevin Brown will probably not start the game.
"Right now, I'm probably not considering (Brown) for a starting spot because he's supposed to pitch on Sunday," Baker said. "If he has any physical problems, it wouldn't be good for him or good for the Dodgers for him to start on one day rest."
Baker defended his selection of Pittsburgh closer Mike Williams, who has 24 saves in 29 opportunities but a 6.62 ERA.
"When you're a reliever, you have one or two bad outings, your ERA can go to the sky," Baker said. "Had I taken a position player, I was thinking about (Brian) Giles and Kenny Lofton and (Jason) Kendall over there.
"If I take a position player there, another position player might get knocked out somewhere else. At that time I thought this would round out my roster the best as far as future guys like Kerry Wood and Russ Ortiz."
Atlanta's Marcus Giles and Rafael Furcal, Chicago's Mark Prior and Wood, Colorado's Preston Wilson and Shawn Chacon are among the first-time All-Stars on the National League team.
"There's always a turnover in stars and personnel," Baker said. "I think it's good for the game. We've got some young guys coming into the game. They make their mark and earn their way this year and the next few years.
"It does appear there's a changing of the guard when you have guys like Marcus Giles, young guys in our league like (Rafael) Furcal and (Edgar) Renteria. You see Albert Pujols starting. Mark Prior and Kerry Wood and Shawn Chacon. It's healthy. The fans recognize that and I think the players and the coaches and the managers who did the voting recognize that, too."

How Tattoos Work?
- Not too long ago, most Americans associated tattoos with sailors, bikers and sideshow artists. But tattoos have become more popular in recent years, and the people who get them are as diverse as the styles and designs they choose. And some people who would never think of tattooing pictures or symbols onto their bodies use permanent make-up - a type of tattoo - to emphasize their eyes and lips
Tattoo Basics
- Artists create tattoos by injecting ink into a person's skin. To do this, they use an electrically powered tattoo machine that resembles (and sounds like) a dental drill. The machine moves a solid needle up and down to puncture the skin between 50 and 3,000 times per minute. The needle penetrates the skin by about a millimeter and deposits a drop of insoluble ink into the skin with each puncture
- The tattoo machine has remained relatively unchanged since its invention by Samuel O'Reilly in the late 1800s. O'Reilly based his design on the autographic printer, an engraving machine invented by Thomas Edison. Edison created the printer to engrave hard surfaces. O'Reilly modified Edison's machine by changing the tube system and modifying its rotary-driven electromagnetic oscillating unit to enable the machine to drive the needle
Modern tattoo machines have several basic components:
- A sterilized needle
- A tube system, which draws the ink through the machine
- An electric motor
- A foot pedal, like those used on sewing machines, which controls the vertical movement of the needle
- When you look at a person's tattoo, you're seeing the ink through the epidermis, or the outer layer of skin. The ink is actually in the dermis, which is the second layer of the skin. The cells of the dermis are far more stable than the cells of the epidermis, so the tattoo's ink will stay in place, with minor fading and dispersion, for a person's entire life
Precautions specific to tattooing include:
- Checking gloves for pinhole tears during tattooing, since petroleum-based ointment erodes latex
- Pouring ink in advance, using clean tissue to open ink bottles during tattooing and preventing nozzles from touching contaminated surfaces
- Patting tubes dry after rinsing during color changes - never blowing excess water from them
- Spraying liquid soap into a tissue, not directly onto bleeding area, since blood can become airborne when the spray hits it
- Giving pens used for drawing on the skin, which should be medical grade and sterile, to the client Tattoo artists must also take special safety measures regarding their hands. Gloves help prevent disease transmission from bodily fluids, but bacteria thrive in the warm, damp environment they create. This means that artists must: Wash hands thoroughly and often. Inspect hands for cuts or sores and cover them with bandages. Remove hangnails and keep nails short to prevent punctures to gloves. Refrain from tattooing when experiencing lesions, dermatitis or allergic reactions
The tattoo itself involves several steps:
- Outlining, or black work: Using a single-tipped needle and a thin ink, the artist creates a permanent line over the stencil. Most start at the bottom of the right side and work up (lefties generally start on the left side) so they don't smear the stencil when cleaning excess ink from the permanent line
- Shading: After cleaning the area with soap and water, the artist uses a thicker ink and a variety of needles to create an even, solid line. Improper technique during this step can cause shadowed lines, excessive pain and delayed healing
- Color: The artist cleans the tattoo and then overlaps each line of color to ensure solid, even hues with no holidays - uneven areas where color has lifted out during healing or where the artist missed a section of skin
- Final cleaning and bandaging: After using a disposable towel to remove any blood and plasma, the artist covers the tattoo with a sterile bandage. Some bleeding always occurs during tattooing, but most stops within a few minutes
- Since tattoos involve needles and blood, they carry several risks. These include transmission of diseases like hepatitis, tuberculosis and possibly HIV. When tattoo artists follow all the correct sterilization and sanitation procedures, risks for disease transmission are relatively low. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), there has not been a documented case of HIV transmission from a tattoo. However, doctors warn that non-sterile tattooing practices can lead to the transmission of syphilis, hepatitis B and other infectious organisms
