After Thursday nights win in the FA Youth Cup it was back down to Priory Lane to host Sidley United, for the second league game of the season, a raft of changes were made to the squad with 7 different players in the starting eleven.
George "Robbo" Robinson, Clayton Holford and Mitch Light all made appearances from the bench.
Whether it was potentially down to the scorching hot weather or not the first half performance from the boys really didn't stand up to previous efforts and despite going into the interval with a 2-1 lead not many of them would of been happy with how the team had performed.
After a very scruffy first 30 minutes, Boro took the lead with one of the few first half players putting in a good performance Steve turner intercepting a loose ball in defense to slide in Bright to slot past the keeper. Ryan Craig then had a golden opportunity to score being played one on one with the keeper but unfortunately mishit his shot wide, thankfully Eastbourne then doubled their lead with a huge slice of luck, what appeared to be an over hit cross by Sean Dunne from the halfway line dipping just under the bar with the scrambling keeper unable to keep it out. Not to be outdone with the long range efforts, Sidley lobbed the Boro keeper from a good 40 yards to cut the Boro lead.
I'm not sure what was said by the coaches at half time but the boys came out in the second half playing considerably better. Making amends for his earlier miss Ryan scoring the goal of the game picked the ball up just inside the opposition half and galloped towards goal beating 5 Sidley players before rifling the ball into the top corner. With the goal restoring Boro's 2 goal cushion Sidleys spirit seemed to wain and it soon turned into a rout in the last 25 minutes.
Bright Valentino fresh from scoring a hatrick in last weekends game against Uckfield grabbed his second with a fine finish from just inside the box. Ryan a different player after grabbing his "wonder" goal then burst down the right wing turning inside and beating his man before cutting the ball back to substitute Robbo to pass the ball into the back of the net to make it 5-1. Hungry for more Boro continued to come forward at all times and Bright soon had his back to back hat trick after dribbling into the box from the left wing, cutting back to beat him man and then slotting the ball in past the despairing keeper.
There was still time for Borough to score a further 2 in added time with Robbo repaying the assist from Ryan earlier by placing a perfect cross on his forhead for Ryan to grab his second of the game. Robbo then himself grabbed his second cutting in across the pitch from the left wing leaving a couple of players for dead with a drop of his shoulder before smashing in a shot from outside the box which gave the keeper no chance.
So 2 games into the season and despite playing a game less than a couple of other teams Boro sit top of the league with a already very healthy goal difference.

Aw, crap, there goes another little piece of my childhood. If Evel was going to do something dangerous, it was most certainly on our TV. *sigh* Another childhood memory put to rest.
Aw, crap, there goes another little piece of my childhood. If Evel was going to do something dangerous, it was most certainly on our TV. *sigh* Another childhood memory put to rest.
Wow. Let me say that again….WOW! Non-stop, high-energy, great bunch of bouncy fun. I don't care what kind of music you like, if you get the chance to see Gogol Bordello, do it. I was with a group of people who have all been to many, many shows and we were all basically in agreement that this was at the very least in our top five shows of all time.
Since we're old, we got to the Roxy early and nabbed the front row of the balcony so we could sit on our asses. The sold out crowd did Atlanta proud by being every bit as energetic as the band. I'll have to say that Atlanta does seem to give good crowd compared to some other cities. And I was able to get a few shots with my iPhone which didn't come out too badly.
There was also an afterparty at Lenny's, so, what the hell, we headed over there. The band showed up and Eugene Hütz, the lead singer, was the DJ. Good stuff, but since we're all old, and the smoke was getting to us, we left around 1:15AM or so. I was driving, so there was no drinking enough to get me dancing anyway.
This week, I had things to do Monday and Thursday night so I missed Heroes and The Office. I thought, no problem, I'll just watch them online at nbc.com. I did that regularly last season with Heroes. Oh yeah, I have no VCR or DVR. And I've figured out it makes no sense to get one until I get a new TV and possibly commit to cable. And I'm not ready for that sort of outlay.
Well, their new player is unwatchable for me. Stop, start, stop, start, and so on. What the hell? Why did they mess up something that worked great before? I don't mind the commercials. I figure it's the price I pay for not having Tivo or my own recording device. But I do mind it being unwatchable.
Then I remembered I had TVShows. It's an app that automatically downloads tv shows for you. You just subscribe to the ones you want, it automatically grabs the new episodes as they come out and downloads them for you via bittorrent. It kind of takes forever, which is the nature of bittorrent, but I cranked it up last night, went to bed, and woke up to the missed eps of Heroes and The Office. Yay!
Oh yeah, this is a Mac OS X app. There is probably something similar for Windows, but I just don't care.
Just got back from The Simpsons Movie. Definitely fun and worth it. I don't want to give anything away, so I'll just say that there's something in there that I'm pretty sure is illegal in this state.
Yep, it's official, 24′s writers are all out of ideas. No wonder I fell asleep when I tried to watch Monday night. I'm going to switch to watching Heroes Monday nights and streaming 24 instead of the other way around.
Heroes, on the other hand, just keeps getting better. Let's see if it's sustainable. It seems like what they should do is wrap up Heroes in about 6 more episodes…and then stop. But you know they probably wouldn't do that. They'd rather beat every bit of life out of it until it's unwatchable. Then cancel it.
As I was driving through North Carolina entering the home stretch of my drive to my mom's, I found an interesting radio station out of Greensboro. It's called 98.7 Simon and their shtick is "we play anything." And while I didn't hear any gothic or industrial, I did hear anything from Salt & Pepa to Johnny Cash to Prince to Carol King to Queen and so on. It seems to be heavy on the 80s with a sprinkling of just about everything else. It's almost like my ipod. You can listen online at their site apparently, but they make you register before they let you do that. It's not THAT important to me. Besides, I have an ipod. But it was interesting to hear different format and it let me conserve ipod battery for a while so I could make it the rest of the way.
When I saw that Bombay Dreams was coming to the Fox Theatre, I asked for some tickets at work. Bollywood extravaganza on stage. Sounds good, right? Well. I don't know. It didn't quite hit the mark for me. I didn't care about any of the characters. And it hovered in that no man's land between campy and just bad. There were some really nice dance numbers. Wonderful costumes. But to keep me entertained they really need to ratchet up the camp. So all in all, it had redeeming qualities, I was just a bit disappointed and glad I didn't pay for tickets.

Robin Thicke's marriage in trouble for a while?
Robin Thicke and Paula Patton's marriage was ''unravelling for a long time,'' according to sources close to the couple, who announced their split yesterday (24.02.14).
Robin Thicke and Paula Patton's marriage was ''unravelling for a long time''.
The 'Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol' actress and her husband of almost nine years announced they have separated yesterday (24.02.14), but friends claim they predicted the split.
A source told UsMagazine.com: ''It has been a long time coming. It is not a shock to Robin or Paula, and it is something they have discussed for a long time.''
Another insider said: ''Their marriage was unravelling for a long time.''
Rumours that Robin had cheated on his wife date back as far as last August, but none have ever been acknowledged by the 'Blurred Lines' star. Notably, he was photographed with his hand on the bottom of a fan, Lana Scolaro, in September, and she claimed he had also kissed her at the same party in New York City.
Robin, 36, and Paula, 38, had put on a united front despite the rumours, making frequent public appearances together.
Speaking to Prestige Hong Kong magazine last September, Paula said of her husband: ''I've been there for his down moments and he's been there for mine. Life is full of peaks and valleys. Robin has always been a great person to remind me to celebrate now.''
The couple - who have a three-year-old son, Julian Fuego Thicke - said in a statement announcing their split they will always ''be best friends,'' but ''have mutually decided to separate at this time.''

May 4th is tomorrow — May the Fourth, the international holiday also known as Star Wars Day because it sounds a little bit like the first three words of the Star Wars mantra "May the Force be with you."
We are of course not really about Star Wars here at Girlwatcher — we are about girls. But if you're looking for a girl to fulfill your Girlwatching needs and it happens to be May the Fourth, there's really just one girl for the job:
Naomi von Kreeps.
If cleavage is a cut, a crevasse formed by the smooshing together of a woman's bosoms, then Naomi von Kreeps' cleavage was carved with a swift stroke of a light saber.
If you've got a baaaad feeling about this, Naomi von Kreeps is just the girl to make it worse.
If you sense a tremor in the force, or your extremities, it is because of Naomi von Kreeps.
If you are looking for droids, or R2D2 plus-twos, or the twin suns of Tattooine, or a sterling set of Storm-IV Twin Pods, or wamprat bullseyes, or fully operational battle stations, or Booba Fetts, or some other juvenile pun-based term for breasts (we could do this all day), then Naomi von Kreeps has the droids you're looking for.
If you want a girl who owns not just Darth Vader and Stormtrooper helmets but also a Wampa hat (that is what she's modeling up top), Naomi von Kreeps is the girl for you.
Search your feelings. You know it to be true.
(See more Naomi von Kreeps pictures at Instagram, Facebook, and her official site. You may also want to read our interview with her.)

The budget impact on Texas military installations is expected to top $2 billion. Friday morning two Central Texas congressmen were at Fort Hood to announce a plan to help top bass managed the cuts.
Congressman John Carter said budget negotiators just can't seem to pull the trigger on any type of budget deal. So he's taking a shot not at an overall solution but one to help those in uniform.
With the largest military installation in the nation as their back drop Congressmen John Carter and Roger Williams declared war on the budget impasse.
Carter says he will introduce a hybrid continuing budget resolution. It would fund federal agencies this year at current reduced levels, while allowing the department of defense to have more flexibility in how it spends those dollars.
"There's still going to be cuts, but those cuts allow them to rearrange their money," Carter said.
"I look at the big picture, there's a lot of other Departments that might be able to take a little bigger cut than putting the burden of Sequestration on the military," Williams said.
Carter and Williams say the budget crisis will create a military readiness crisis.
Reductions at Fort Hood will almost $300 million. Six thousand civilian employees would be furloughed up to 22 days without pay and 208 contractors, mostly part-time workers are expected to lose their jobs.
The targets for immediate cuts include airfield operations, fire and EMS as well as family services.
The command staff is still working on a list of who and what to cut. It could be a lot of things from supplies for the horses on post to how often the grass gets cut this spring. Not knowing is adding a lot of stress on military families. Nettie McCraney, who married a solider and worked in the VA, offered this suggestion.
"Get off their butt and try to pass this stuff 'cause there's a lot of people out there that is going to be hurt by all of this - and their stalling and they need get it together up there," said McCraney.
A community wide economic ripple effect is also expected. Benny Segura and Lourni Matthias came to listen to the congressmen Friday morning. They manage local apartments that cater to contractors and off-base personnel.
"We're fighting this battle with one hand tied behind or backs I think we need more answers now we've got plenty of questions - we need the answers to our questions," said Segura.
Those working on construction projects like the new medical center will not be affected by the budget cuts. They've already been funded but future projects are in jeopardy of being put on hold.
The job furloughs are not expected to start until sometime in April because of labor agreements.
There are several federal programs that are exempt from this budget crisis. Some of those Programed identified in a Congressional Research Report include:

2011 MLS Open Cup – Tournament Results
Except for the formality that is the Third-Place matchup between LA Galaxy and San Jose Earthquakes, my 2011 MLS Open Cup Tournament is complete.
In the tournament Championship match between Colorado Rapids and DC United, Dwayne DeRosario was amazing again, and netted the only goal, the game winner for the new Cup Champions, DC United.
DeRosario's goal came in the 72nd minute, and it was the first ball that had found its way past Colorado's keeper Matt Pickens since the 25th minute of the Colorado's opening match versus the Red Bulls – an astounding 377 minutes of scoreless goalkeeping.
But as terrific as Pickens has been, he couldn't stop Dwayne DeRosario. The tournament winning goal was DeRo's 4th goal of the cup, to go along with 4 assists, which made him the clear winner of the first MLS Open Cup Most Valuable Player award.
click on the bracket to see it at full size:
With their top-four finishes, the Colorado Rapids and the San Jose Earthquakes have each avoided relegation from the MLS top flight league. Both clubs were members of my 2010 mini-season, but finished below the relegation line and needed to be one of the top three non-pre-qualified clubs in this tournament in order to get back into the top flight.
Columbus Crew was in the same boat, too, but didn't qualify to return to the top flight. Instead, the Crew's former spot now belongs to DC United.
This will be the 8 teams in my 2011 MLS Mini Season (7-game season with playoffs):
Real Salt Lake is coming off an undefeated, Championship season. We'll see if they can do it again!

Sometime last year, when I was given a complimentary Clear+Brilliant laser treatment at the ERASE Clinic at Malvern, the good people of the clinic also sent me home with a couple of Jan Marini products from the salon. Jan Marini is a popular salon skincare brand in the US, and ERASE is one of the few salons in Australia that stock the skincare line.
Today I'm going to review a sunscreen that was kindly given to me after the treatment, and that's the Antioxidant Daily Face Protectant SPF15.
Contains microscopic oil absorbing particles to form a velvety skin-conditioning matte surface. It's formulated with antioxidants Beta Glucan and Phytomelanin for anti-aging benefits. Enhances protection against damage caused by UV exposure. Provides a broad-spectrum SPF30 waterproof shield.
It's a fairly light-textured yellow cream. I like squirting two pea-sized dollops, lightly rub my palms together and gently pat the sunscreen on the face and neck.
I've been using this for 6 months now, and oh, I'll just come out and say it. I love this sunscreen. I really do.
- It's perfect for my combination skin.
- It doesn't break me out at all.
- It doesn't give me a shiny face.
- It doesn't block my pores.
- It doesn't cast a white shadow on my skin.
- Best of all, it smells of mangoes.
Mangoes, people! How often do you encounter sunscreens that do not reek of a chemical scent, much less something that smells so incredibly yummy?
You'll notice that there's a sticker on the bottle that states "SPF15″. It actually covers the words "SPF30″. unfortunately, as the Australian standards for sunscreen are high, this could not pass as SPF30 here. The beauty therapist assured me that Jan Marini sunscreen products are tested in independent labs and that they do have the sun protection factor of 30. Erring on the side of caution, I reapply every few hours.
I'm probably going to cop some flak for this, because this sunscreen does contain oxybenzone, which in a study by the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) in the US has suggested that the chemical is actually absorbed into our system, and can stay there for an unknown amount of time. Currently, there are no studies showing a direct relationship between oxybenzone in sunscreen and negative health consequences, so it's a matter of "use at your own risk", and that's what I'm doing. It's a pity physical sunscreens do not work for me. I've tried a number of them, and all were far too heavy and greasy for my skin (I couldn't even handle them on my body). I am still in search for the perfect sunscreen for my skin that does not contain the "bad stuff", but for now, this is what I'm using and I admit I do like it.
Now, where can you buy this if you're far away from Malvern? Unfortunately, Jan Marini products are not available online in Australia. According to them, order processors at online retail warehouses are not qualified or equipped to provide professional skincare advice or assist with product choice. The best way to order Jan Marini products is to contact them directly on (03) 9571 9990 or 1800 330 855 for authorised Australian retailers. Alternatively, you can email them at firstname.lastname@example.com for referral to a Jan Marini Skin Research authorized Australian retailer near you.
Jan Marini's Antioxidant Daily Face Protectant SPF15 retails at US$48 fpr 57g/2oz.
What I like about it: Non-greasy, doesn't block my pores, smells pretty damn good of delicious mangoes.
What I do not like about it: Contains oxybenzone; It's not available for purchase online in Australia.
Do you use sunscreens that contain oxybenzone, or do you try to avoid them as much as you can?

Shoe Cover-Up; One day a man drove his secretary home after she fell quite ill at work. Although this was an innocent gesture, he decided not to mention it to his wife, who tended to get jealous easily. Later, that night the man and his wife were driving to a restaurant. Suddenly he looked down and spotted a high-heel shoe half hidden under the passenger seat. Not wanting to be conspicuous, he waited until his wife was looking out her window before he scooped up the shoe and tossed it out of the car. With a sigh of relief, he pulled into the restaurant parking lot. That's when he noticed his wife squirming around in her seat. "Honey," she asked, "have you seen my other shoe?"

Book Review: The Penguin Anthology of Twentieth-Century American Poetry
October 22, 2011 at 3:57 pm , by Tom Claire
All of us collect things. Assets or debts, memories and mementos, to-do lists and checklists—collections speak to us about who we are and who we wish we were. Our collections define us.
I collect many things—hats (which I wear), books (which I read), words (which I speak). Among the many hats I wear there are several I don at the office. Not too bizarre, considering that most of us wear many—at least more than one—hats at work nowadays. I am associate managing editor, copy chief, adjunct professor, writer, translator, advocate, spectator and audience, reader. And reciter. Reciting is important because there are times when only a poem can speak the thought you want to say with precision, unambiguously, without denial or loss of meaning or intent. A poem is both truth made manifest and "earwash," a refreshment that is an afternoon or morning tonic as well as a pick-me-up to send the blues packing. Life without poetry would not be worth living.

Perfect Pairing: Two Wines, One Salad
October 6, 2011 at 4:02 pm , by Tom Claire
My wife, Lindsay, has an arsenal of delicious salad recipes, and and as luck would have it, a friend sent over two new wines for us to sample. Each bottle pairs perfectly with the same salad recipe (with one simple ingredient modification). It was so good, I had to share.
Lindsay's Couscous, Lentil and Blue Cheese Salad
1 cup lentils, cooked
3 tbsp lemon juice
1 cup couscous, cooked
½ tsp salt
¼ cup olive oil
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 head romaine or other lettuce
1 lemon, cut into wedges
6 plum tomatoes or 1 small beefsteak, cubed
¼ cup mint leaves, chopped
¾ cup (3 oz) blue cheese, crumbled
The key to this recipe is making it once and then adjusting it to taste, though you might nail it on the first go. Salt and pepper the cooked lentils to taste, having stirred in 1 tbsp lemon juice. In a separate large bowl, add 1 tbsp oil to cooked couscous and fluff. In a small bowl make the dressing: To minced garlic whisk in remaining 2 tbsp juice and 3 tbsp oil and salt and pepper to taste. Then stir the lentils and dressing into the couscous and refrigerate for at least 3 hours. Before serving, shred romaine on a platter and stir tomato, mint and cheese into salad, then turn salad onto romaine. Garnish with lemon wedges and additional tomato wedges. Makes plenty for leftovers.
2009 Marilyn Merlot (Napa Valley; $30) With a full body and wonderful mouth feel, this wine's mature red fruit and toasted oak flavors in a well-balanced acidity make it fun to sip, and its dried-herb bouquet invite you to pair it with Lindsay's salad recipe. It also happens to have a long, smooth finish that mellows to memories of chocolate and vanilla—consider it built-in dessert.
2007 Simi Cabernet Sauvignon (Sonoma; $25) This wine's price is no reflection of its quality: It drinks like a $100 bottle and it makes a bold statement, showing aromas of red cherry and blackberry with hints of licorice, toasted oak and spices and its palate offers more of the same, plus generous vanilla and caramel in a long finish. This is (need I repeat?) a big, bold, strapping wine.
To pair the Simi Cabernet Sauvignon with the salad recipe above, stir some cooked cubed ham or cold cooked bacon bits in before serving. The reason for larding up the salad is to add to the welcoming viscosity of the cheese—it gives the wine's acidity something to balance out. Just add fresh baguette slices for a complete meal.

Dishing It: Carrot-Sweet Potato Soup
February 7, 2011 at 5:18 pm , by Tom Claire
There is something special about a hot, thick, body- and soul-warming soup, especially on frigid winter days when your house is surrounded by more than four feet of snow and ice and your roof carries almost as much—plus icicles everywhere. Yep, when it is so cold that even pets don't want to go outdoors, that is the time for something like the Carrot-Sweet Potato Soup featured in "Slow-Good Soups" in our February 2011 issue (page 124). Truth be told, this numbered among the easiest soups I have ever made, and my wife, Lindsay, would rank its degree of preparation for beginning cooks. But on the scale of satisfaction (more on that in a moment) it definitely merited a perfect 10.
Preparation: We followed the recipe to a tee except we used two Knorr vegetable bouillon cubes in lieu of chicken broth (we eat no meat) and we had only dark honey purchased locally in Fairfield County, Connecticut, so we used that (not clover honey). And since we had our woodstove cranked up the entire weekend, we decided to slow-cook this soup on top of it instead of in a slow cooker. Why not? That was how our forebears used to make dishes like this, and we had all day long to let it heat.

In Praise of Amy Chua's Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother
January 24, 2011 at 11:33 am , by Tom Claire
Amy Chua, a law professor at Yale and hardworking mother of two teenage daughters (her husband, Jed Rubenfeld, also teaches law at Yale and writes suspense novels), has sparked a giant controversy in publishing her memoir-cum-parenting book, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother (The Penguin Press; $25.95; 2011). The crux of the brouhaha: Which parenting paradigm works better, the traditional American model, which proposes that parents let their children discover what they naturally excel at and then help them achieve success at it while preserving the kids' all-important "self esteem," or Chua's "Asian" model, in which parents push their children to perform tasks that the parents decide are worthwhile with 110 percent of their ability to the exclusion of seemingly self-indulgent activities such as sleepovers and after-school drama clubs? Chua asserts that her Chinese parenting methods work better, and that the United States is on the road to failure because we don't push our children hard enough, far enough, fast enough. The numbers seem to support her: According to a report from the U.S. Department of Labor, Asian-American high school graduates have the highest college enrollment rate, at 92.2 percent. Read more

Claire Robinson's Spicy Pecan & Parmesan Cheese Straws
January 12, 2011 at 8:32 am , by Tom Claire
Here is a super-simple tasty appetizer sure to please just about everyone—these cheese straws are tasty and so odiferous that guests will follow their noses to the platter you serve them on. My wife, Lindsay, and I would rate the difficulty level of prepping this recipe as "beginner." (The recipe is from "Super-Simple Appetizers" in LHJ's December 2010/January 2011 issue.) After all, how could you go wrong with one of Claire Robinson's recipes? They are classic. All you really need apart from the ingredients and a 400°F oven are a clean work surface, a baking sheet with parchment and a rolling pin (see photos below). And if you can lay your hands on a tapered French rolling pin, so much the better, as it will give you greater control of the dough as you roll it out. This holds for any dough you roll, from bread dough for baguettes to piecrust for Mom's Very Best and Tastiest Apple Pie (the one that has shredded Cheddar cheese incorporated into the dough and a tablespoon of Calvados added to the filling 10 minutes before retrieving the pie from the oven).

New Year's Eve Bubbly
December 29, 2010 at 8:26 am , by Tom Claire
Come New Year's Eve, many of us look forward to toasting the new year (and all our well-planned resolutions) with a bottle or two of Champagne shared with friends and loved ones. A lot of us look for inexpensive or more reasonably priced sparkling wine alternatives both for the new year and to enjoy throughout the year for special occasions.
So I was happy to discover a flavorful set of sparklers from Georgia (the country, not the state) that are truly food friendly and very affordable: Bagrationi has been producing effervescent wines for a century and a quarter. Four are widely available in the United States: Bagrationi 1882 Classic Brut (look for citrus notes and a dry finish; $10–$14), Bagrationi 1882 Classic Extra Dry (citrus and melon flavors, very dry with a long finish; $10–$14), Bagrationi 1882 Reserve (complex peach and pear flavors with dry finish; $20–$26) and Bagrationi 1882 Royal Cuvée (regal citrus and melon with pear and extra-long finish; $35). At prices like these you won't have to cash in any CD's to afford them. And they are amazingly food friendly, whether served with hors d'oeuvres (any type of cheese and cracker, even fresh fruit), an entrée or dessert (think fruit and chocolate). Look for them in your wine store's champagne or country section or log on to Bagrationiwines.com for more info. Cheers!

Dishing It: Ina Garten's Wild Rice Salad
November 3, 2010 at 9:07 am , by Tom Claire
This salad recipe (which ran in our November 2010 issue on page 150) intrigued my wife and me for several reasons, not least among which is that it seems to provide a wonderful side dish for many occasions. It would support any number of main dishes no matter the season and might very well stand on its own as the main event at a luncheon at any time of year—pair it with fresh-baked baguettes and the right complementary wine and no guest would go unsatisfied or underfed.
The recipe is not only a breeze to make but fun as well. This is the sort of recipe that any beginning chef ought to be able to master because its steps are so clear and its success is all but guaranteed. That said, it is also the sort of recipe that any pro should be able to make since its flavors are extremely complex: This Wild Rice Salad is as hearty and crunchy, owing to its rice and nuts and grapes, as it is subtle, owing to its varied sweet-salt-acid palate. To say that it is a wild ride on a thrilling roller coaster would be no exaggeration, for its flavors keep unfolding the longer you sample it. But first, here is how its assembly went.
Indeed, the only time-consuming part to this recipe (other than eating it, of course) is cooking the rice. Wild rice takes nearly an hour to prep (unlike the mere 20 minutes that white rice takes). After that, assembly is straightforward: You add the oranges to the cooled rice, then the olive oil, orange juice, raspberry vinegar, grapes (we used green per the recipe but you could also use Thompson Seedless or any other variety' even Concord), pecans, dried cranberries, scallions, salt and pepper. But forget about waiting 30 minutes before sitting down to eat this luscious salad. If you can wait 30 minutes you are either not hungry or your nose is not working. Read more

NASHVILLE, TN (AP) - Gov. Bill Haslam has what he calls "major concerns" about a measure supported by fellow Republicans in the Legislature seeking to do away with local government's power to decide whether to allow firearms in public parks.
The Legislature in 2009 gave city and county governments the ability to opt out of a new law that allowed people with handgun carry permits to be armed in public parks, playgrounds and sports fields.
A bill sponsored by Sen. Stacey Campfield of Knoxville that would do away with local control over guns has drawn the support of fellow Republican Senate Speaker Ron Ramsey of Blountville.
When Haslam was Knoxville mayor, he supported a 2009 city council vote that kept in place a ban on handguns in some of the city's parks.

Iowa football received a double dose of good news this week as the Hawkeyes landed a pair of commitments in Cody Sokol, a JUCO quarterback out of Scottsdale Community College, and Greg Garmon from Erie, Pa. What makes this a really big deal? Iowa needed commitments at both positions in a big way.
Garmon is a very good running back. He's a consensus four-star player claiming offers from Arizona State, Arkansas, Florida State, Miami, Michigan, Penn State, Ohio State and Texas A&M. It's impossible to know if all of those are legitimate, but the smart money says the majority are legit.
The 6'2", 200 pound Garmon had this to say about why he chose the Hawkeyes:
"I could tell right away that I would fit in good," he said earlier this year. "They also showed me some film of when Shonn Greene was there, how they just pounded the ball against Purdue. They just pounded at the end of the game, the whole series. They didn't pass it.
"They run the ball a lot. As a running back, that's what you like to see."
A big, fast (relative to his size) running back. Just what the doctor ordered for the Hawkeyes, says Black Heart Gold Pants.
Quarterback was also a position of need for Iowa, and Sokol fits the bill. Iowa actually beat out the local Arizona Wildcats for his services. He's rated three by the services that have gotten around to evaluating him.
Here's BHGP's take:
The other big question is: when will Sokol play? James Vandenberg's unimpressive play down the stretch in the 2011 Iowa season (particularly the final two games of the season) might have opened the door a crack for someone else to get a crack at the starting quarterback spot. (Considering Wienke has more interceptions than completions at Iowa, it's probably not going to be him.) Conversely, Sokol could also redshirt in 2012, compete with Rudock for the starting job in 2013, and still have two years of eligibility to play for Iowa. Sokol himself says both options are on the table:
"I know the coaching staff wants competition so I'm just going to go in and compete and do my best," Sokol said. "I might redshirt so I can learn the offense and just develop with the system, but you never know what's going to happen."
My guess is that unless he proves to be absolutely sensational at the spring or summer practices, he'll be using that redshirt in 2012. Whether he plays or not, though, he's definitely a welcome addition to this recruiting class and a means of addressing the lingering issue of quarterback depth. And if he can legitimately challenge Vandenberg and either win the job or push JVB to improve to another level, so much the better.
List of other Iowa commitments:
Kevin Buford
Faith Ekakitie
Daumantas Venckus
Greg Mabin
Ruben Lile
Laron Tyler
Michael Malloy
Ryan Ward
Jaleel Johnson
Connor Kornbrath
Maurice Fleming Jr.
Drew Ott
Cameron Wilson
Anthony Morgan
Thanks again to Ross Binder and the folks at Black Heart Gold Pants for the excellent scoop on Iowa football recruiting.

Mitchell 'denies swearing at police'
Ed Miliband called for Tory Chief Whip Andrew Mitchell to clarify what he said to police officers during his altercation outside the gates of Downing Street a few weeks ago in the House of Commons today.
During the exchange between the Labour leader and the Prime Minister Mr Mitchell appeared to deny having sworn at police, shaking his head and apparently mouthing "I didn't, I didn't" as Mr Miliband said that people who swear at police should be arrested.
In response, the Labour leader said: "He says from a sedentary position he didn't. Maybe he will tell us what he actually did say."
A senior Labour source later said that Mr Mitchell's apparent denial made it all the more essential for it to be made clear exactly what he did say.

1Oh, So J Woww Got Engaged, Huh?
From Radar Online:
From one daring leap to another, JWOWW's longtime boyfriend Roger Mathews popped the question to the reality star when they were skydiving, WetPaint Entertainment is exclusively reporting.
"It happened the middle of last week during filming for season two of Snooki & JWOWW," a production insider exclusively told Wetpaint. "(JWOWW) and Roger went skydiving and jumped out of a plane together. After landing safely, Roger shocked her by getting down on one knee and proposing. Of course, she said yes!"
As for the bling, "It's beautiful!" said the insider, "and big."
Just don't expect to see the bride-to-be wearing her sparkler anytime soon, as the exclusive reveal will be saved for the show.
"The crew took great pains to make sure they weren't followed by photographers and the footage is being kept tightly under wraps. Everyone will have to wait until Season 2 to see it."
I'm so glad the "exclusive" "reveal" is going to be "saved" for the show, because that definitely screams "CLASS!" and not "MONEY!" at all. Good for you, J Woww. Can't wait to see what kind of virginal, blushing bride you make, girl.

0Snooki & J Woww: The Extended Trailer. Dear God.
Get More: Snooki & JWOWW, Full Episodes
Alright. I'm about to reveal some really heavy shit right here, guys, and it kind of goes like this: this show. Well. I guess it actually doesn't look all that bad. And worse? The trailer kind of makes Snooki and J Woww look like charming, young, all-American girls (let's just not comment on the "all-American" part, OK?). Somehow, I was able to identify with J Woww with the whole quasi-disappointed "she's [Snooki] not hoorah-ing," and I was also able to identify with the confused, surprised, and kind of sad Snooki as she realized that she wasn't sure what she wanted after hearing that she's pregnant.
I do resolve, however, not to watch this show (publicly). I also will say that there's still positively nothing appealing about either one of these young women (except for their soft, sensitive sides that have been magically revealed through their spin-off). Last, I'm going to make a promise to myself, and you guys, that I won't be talking about this show when it debuts (much).
What did you guys think of the trailer? For the fans, is it everything you hoped for and more? For the haters, did it maybe change your outlook on Snooks and Jenni Farley? Help a sister out here.
May 25, 2012 at 4:30 pm by Sarah
4Classy J Woww Compiled a "Presidents I'd Like to F-ck" List
Why? Oh I don't know. Probably because this is what J Woww considers "deep thinking," because anytime she hears the words "deep," she automatically associates them with "deep-throating" and deep as in "knee-deep in crusty vadge."
In light of President's Day today (which pissed me off, because my bank was closed, therefore a check I deposited on Saturday did not clear because of it), J wrote up her very own "President I'd Like to F-ck" list. Here they are in no particular order (I guess):
Ulysses S. Grant
Abraham Lincoln
Bill Clinton
George Washington
George W. Bush
Ronald Reagan
Barack Obama
John F. Kennedy
Ulysses S. Grant? Does she even know who he is? Because this is what he looked like in his heyday:
Does she even know what she's getting into there? And then, of course, you've got George Washington, which I suppose would be "hot" if you were into dudes that looked like your grandmother:
Nope. Don't get that one at all. Sorry, George.
I can understand (though I don't agree with) Bill Clinton; there's John F. Kennedy and Ronald Regan and Barack Obama who are definitely traditionally good looking, and I can even see George W – he seems like he'd be a decent lay – but the rest? Abraham Lincoln? Ulysses? Washington? I don't know what I'm more repulsed by – that she chose these particular men, or the thought of her boning them.
In light of the holiday, who are Presidents that you'd f-ck? Would Ulysses S. Grant and George Washington appear on your list, too?

3Are J Woww and Snooki Feminists?
I know – I just about died when I considered the notion, too, but after reading the interview they recently gave to our friends at the Huffington Post, I … well, read for yourself. Snooki and J Woww stopped by MTV studios in New York City earlier this week and talked about sexuality, Jersey Shore, and feminism, and how they claim it all goes together.
Snooki: I told her [J Woww] to run for president so that everyone [including same-sex couples] could get married. Because I certainly can't [run for president.]
JWoww: I was really upset — that's what I tweeted about. My friend couldn't get married. He had to get a domestic partnership [at the time] and I was so pissed off about that. I was like, "I want to go to your wedding. You're going to be my bridesmaid and I'm going to be your bridesmaid…"
Snooki: Is he going to wear a dress?
JWoww: I don't know. I hope so. [Laughs]
Huff Po: You were both featured in one of MTV's "Love Is Louder" videos which tackles the issue of bullying. In it you mentioned that you know what it's like to be discriminated against. What were you referring to?
JWoww: We're just very stereotyped. [Snooki was] bullied in high school and so was I.
Snooki: Yeah. And I'm probably the top celebrity that gets bullied today. I'm just different and everyone hates me for it.
JWoww: What we do on the show — people say we're alcoholics. We get discriminated against for drinking. And we're tan so now we've caused these tanning taxes and we're getting a bad rap for tanning.
Snooki: People just take us too seriously.
HP: What's the biggest misconception people have about you?
Snooki: That we're stupid. We're not stupid. We're very smart, actually.
JWoww: That really gets under my skin. It's like you don't know me to judge me. We're sorry we're not walking on the shore with three-piece business suits or evening gowns.
HP: Do you read your own press?
Snooki: We have Google alerts!
HP: So do you take what people write about you seriously? Snooki, when people are writing about the pregnancy rumors, for instance, does it freak you out?
Snooki: No. I just like my name being in the news.

21Good Lord, Jenni Farley's Boobs Took Over Maxim
This is what Jenni – AKA Jersey Shore's J Woww – had to say about her recent shoot with Maxim:
"I cried when I found out. I was jumping up and down and totally bugging out. This is probably my highest accomplishment."
Hehe, right? Whatever. She is mildly hot. She is. She's sort of attractive in that dirty, fake, swear-word-saying-in-public-places kind of way, and you'd never actually take her home to mom (or to your friends … or even your acquaintances), but UGH. This photo shoot does girlfriend positively no justice. I mean, her tits are all over the place, and I'm sure that's what's really important and not that the lighting makes her face look like something out of Michael Jackson's House of Wax, but it's really, really obvious that the photo editors didn't even take notice that she was making faces in most of the photos like she had a pulmonary embolism.
But alright. I get it. You think she's hot. She's definitely seedy. She'd bend over an ashy pool table for you. That's pretty super. … Just don't let your friends see, dude. You'd never live it down.

3Quotables: Style Icon Chloe Sevigny Disses Nicky Hilton; Also, Seems Kind of Obsessed with 'Jersey Shore'
"I read somewhere that Abercrombie & Fitch offered to pay The Situation not to wear their clothes—but who am I to say who should be wearing mine? I do remember someone saying that… what's Paris Hilton's sister called? Isn't it Nicky or something? Anyway, she apparently talked to someone about my first collection, and was like, 'I don't get it.' I was like, Good! I'm glad she doesn't get it. It's not for her. Besides, what's there to get with clothes? So if Snooki wants to wear my clothes, go for it. I think she'd look a lot better in them."
—the imperiously icy Chloë Sevigny, who has a new fashion line (via CeleBitchy). No, I know; I promise you'll have a lot more fun with the quote if you read it to yourself in this voice.
But what is Chloë really trying to say here? Do I detect a barely-veiled attack on Nicky Hilton? Here, let me run that quote through my Mean Girl Translator. Ah, yes: Sevigny said, "I have been obsessed with Nicky Hilton ever since I overheard her complaining about the way I dress. Now I will pretend like I can't even think of her name. Nicky? I'm sorry, Nicky Who?"
I see, too, that Chloë would be willing to selflessly sacrifice her style credibility if it only meant she could get Snooki out of that awful leopard print. Also, Chloë seems to know an awful lot about the Jersey Shore cast, don't you think?
What else did Chloë say about Jersey Shore?
"I think it's really depressing that people are propping these people up as celebrities. The way they behave is embarrassing, and I think it's kind of diminishing our culture. Most reality TV people behave like pigs, and it's unfortunate that they get put on pedestals for doing so."
But! She also said,
"I have to admit, I do find that JWoWW sexy in a really weird way. It's like that sexy, dirty kind of girl—not dirty, but like a hot mess. We've all gotten too drunk and acted crazy at parties, but I don't maintain that and I'm kind of fascinated by those girls who do."
Of course! The "Hot Mess" appeal, right. Don't worry, Chloë, it's OK to feel conflicted. I actually know exactly how you feel!
For instance, on the wall of my office, I have tacked up a Uniqlo poster* of Chloë—oh, what is she called? Chloë Sevigny or something? Yeah, her. I can't explain it, but she is bizarrely magnetic. She acts like a total space alien. And I mean, I don't maintain that, but I'm kind of fascinated by girls who do.
*I am really not kidding. She is posing fiercely with a comparatively complacent Tadanobu Asano, and something about the whole thing really tickles me. Oh, Chloë! So yeah, it's very much on the wall in the other room.

There are moments when a sporting event becomes more than just a competition. Time stands still. Conversations cease. Athletes become immortalized.
Last night (Sat., Nov. 19, 2011) was just such an occasion, as Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) delivered what will go down as one of the greatest fight cards of all time with UFC 139: "Shogun vs. Henderson" in San Jose, Calif.
Mixed martial arts (MMA) legends fought to keep their legacies (and careers) alive. Prospects looked like savvy veterans. Title shots were on the line and boldly claimed.
As is usually the case, MMAmania.com will take an in-depth look at whose stars shone the brightest, as well as whose stock took a nosedive.
Check out who UFC 139's biggest winners and lowliest losers were:
Mauricio Rua and Dan Henderson -- It's impossible to separate these guys from each other after Saturday night's grueling war. It may remain that way for the rest of time. From now on, is it even possible to mention "Shogun" in a sentence that doesn't also include "Hendo?" To put it bluntly, the fight was ridiculous. For five rounds, Rua and Henderson beat each other mercilessly, painting the canvas with their sweat, blood and tears. It was the kind of fight that made you turn your cell phone off and ask your girlfriend to stop talking. Though Henderson did get the decision nod, both of these men earned the respect of all who watched.
Wanderlei Silva -- "The Axe Murderer" is back. How long will he stick around? Hard to say. In the post-fight press conference, UFC President Dana White still sounded like he wants to keep Silva on a short leash. After his quick and brutal knockout loss to Chris Leben at UFC 132 on July 2 in "Sin City," many were calling for "Wandy" to hang up the five-ounce gloves and call it a career. Many of those same nay-sayers expected Silva to have problems with Cung Le's kicks and martial arts pizzazz. In the first round, it looked like they were right. Silva was puzzlingly keeping his distance from Le, allowing him to stick-and-move and use his advantage. In the second round, Silva did a great job of cutting off the distance, stalking his opponent and lighting him up with his signature heavy hands. By the end of the fight, Le, the former Strikeforce Middleweight Champion, was hardly recognizable. It's unclear what is next for Silva, but for now, he can rest easy with the knowledge that he's bought himself some more time.
Urijah Faber -- This is what Faber looked like during his dominant days fighting for World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC). For one round, it looked as though "The California Kid" was merely doing "recon" on his opponent. He methodically figured out where the holes were and stored the information away for the next frame of the fight. In round two, Faber jumped all over Brian Bowles, never giving him room to breathe or a moment to recover. Faber was not fighting a bum. Bowles has only lost once and it was to current Bantamweight Champion Dominick Cruz. He's a dangerous striker and a very well-rounded fighter. Faber made him look like he didn't even belong in the cage with him. Maybe he didn't. The trilogy between Faber and Cruz is now in the works. Buckle up.
Michael McDonald -- He's 20 years old. He can't even buy a beer yet. Some companies wouldn't even let him rent a car from them. Yet, this "kid" has no problem taking center stage in front of thousands of people and engaging in professional combat. All of that is an accomplishment in of itself. But that's not enough for "Mayday." He doesn't just want to compete; he wants to make a name for himself while contending for a title as soon as possible. He's had three fights thus far in the UFC. Two of them earned him a fight bonus. All three revealed just how explosive he is as a fighter. Right now, the world is his oyster. After his thrilling knockout victory over Alex Soto, ESPN analyst Brett Okamoto tweeted: "I want to see Michael McDonald fight Joseph Benavidez. Don't tell me it's too soon, either." I won't. I'd personally love to see it.
Ryan Bader -- After two terrible back-to-back guillotine losses to Jon Jones and Tito Ortiz, respectively, Bader sorely needed a win. He looked good. His quick knockout win over Jason Brilz would have earned him "knockout of the night" on most UFC cards. It's hard to get super worked up over this win, as Brilz has now lost his third fight in his last four appearances. Still, a win is a win and a first round knockout is good enough to get a fighter back into the "relevant" category. Big win for "Darth."
Miguel Torres -- I'm not going to prattle on here. This wasn't a win that will catapult Torres back into his position as one of the pound-for-pound greats in the world. A finish would have been nice. That said, I believe Torres showed a newly acquired ability and willingness to adapt his game to his opponent and not just go out and rely on his athleticism and gangly arms and legs. Torres used some very good "dirty boxing" to beat up Nick Pace and break his will with a plethora of violent elbows and knees. Is he back to where he was? The jury is still out.
Matt Brown -- "The Immortal" has now lost four of his last five UFC fights. The one win that he did notch during that run was a terribly uninspired decision win over John Howard, who was let go by the promotion directly after the fight. Each of the four losses was a second round submission. Brown is a popular fighter for his willingness to scrap and to "bring it." He'll fight anyone. Just ask him. I'm not saying I don't respect that, but at some point, you need to beat "anyone" if you want to keep getting opportunities in the Octagon.
Shamar Bailey -- Fail to make weight? Check. Try to use your go-to weapon, wrestling and get totally handled in the process? Check. Prove that you may just not have the necessary skill set to be a competitor for the world's biggest MMA organization? Check. Bailey just hasn't got it done and it's questionable if he is going to. His wrestling is not enough to make him a dominant or even a top-flight fighter. Truth be told, Bailey needs to take a step back, find a good camp and really figure out what weight class he should be fighting in. For each of his last five fights, he has weighed something different than the last. It's time to get that worked out if he really wants to make a run at being a professional fighter.
Jason Brilz -- As recently stated, Brilz has lost four of his last five fights. The 36-year old former Omaha high school state wrestling champion has got some soul-searching to do. Is this what he wants to keep doing? Brilz is the assistant wrestling coach at the University of Nebraska-Omaha. He's also a trainer at Omaha's Premier Combat Center. Fighting in the UFC is not his full-time job. After his showing Saturday night, it might not be his part-time job either.
Referee Dan Stell -- It doesn't happen often. Most of the time, MMA referees do a fantastic job of stopping a fight right when they need to. If anything, we see more early stoppages than failures to end things in a timely manner. That's why what happened in the fight between Chris Weidman and Tom Lawlor is such an anomaly and raises red flags. In the first round, Weidman was able to sneak in a "filthy" d'arce choke that left Lawlor unconscious. The problem? Weidman had to actually tell Stell that Lawlor was out. By the time Stell pulled Weidman off of him, Lawlor was asleep and looked like he had been for a few seconds. That's dangerous. Every second that a fighter continues to squeeze after the blood has been cut off to the brain is an important and scary one. Stell wasn't in position to see what was going on and that's a problem. We've got to do a better job of educating our officials.
That's a wrap, Maniacs. Think you can do better? Prove it. Who were your winners and losers from this fantastic UFC event?

Kind of an obscure question for everybody -- but does anyone happen to have the 1999 Astros/Braves NLDS series on VHS/DVD?
I'm a bit of a collector and I have been unable to locate that series over many months of scouring. I would be willing to trade any of the series I have myself if someone happens to have it. Or maybe someone could point me in the right direction?
Thanks for the help, guys.

Pastors in Gulu district have distanced themselves from a pastor they named as Pastor Ronnie Odur whom they accused of being a witch doctor.
The pastors claimed that Pastor Odur has on several times been pretending to be a pastor yet he is a witch doctor.
They say that Odur should either be a witch doctor or a Pastor, but not both.
Pastor Charles when explaining before his fellow pastors said that he has on many occasions received complaints from Pastor Odur.
"People come and tell me that he asks for bags of Cements before healing them and worst of all, I have also received complains that he has been sleeping with married women which I need to verify", Lakony alleges.
Pastor Janani Loum, the over seers of the Gulu pastors when responding to the allegation said that he has heard of a lot of allegations on some pastors in Gulu.
Pastor Janani adds that he has already organized for a meeting of Pastors next week to address the challenges.
Pastor Ronnie Odur who heads Gulu Holy Power healing Centre at Aywee in Gulu Municipality and Lira district was in 2012 accused of forcing one of Pastor Jane Aber, his assistants to become a housewife.
It was also reported that a group of prostitutes last in 2012 attacked Pastor Ronnie from the church while he was ministering to his flocks and he was rescued by congregations at the church.
The case against Pastor Ronny Odur was reported by Pastor Jane Aber at Gulu Central Police station as 25/28/10/2012.
Attempts to reach Pastor Odur were fruitless as his known phone number was not switched on.

Athens, Georgia - R.E.M. hospitality.
Athens, Georgia - R.E.M. hospitality. Wining, dining and dodgy home videos provide a warm welcome for Willie and Joe.
Joe & I took a flight from San Antonio to Atlanta, where Bruce met us in a rented car. We headed out to Athens, Georgia, home of R.E.M., where we planned to stay the night. Bertis Downs, the band's manager, had invited us for dinner which sounded like a great plan. On arrival at the picturesque little Bed & Breakfast place where we were staying, we got a call from Bertis saying that Michael Stipe and a few friends were in town and keen to see us, so could we meet at his house first. So, over to Bertis's house, where he & his wife Katherine proudly showed us their new baby daughter before we descended into the wine cellar. The Downs wine cellar is a) very large and b) very well stocked with fabulous wines. Not wishing to waste any time we ploughed in and sampled some very fine vintages. And then some more. And then some more. Michael arrived with three friends and we settled into the living room, as Bert continued to bring in more bottles. We were all loving life by the time we finally left to eat.
Dinner was at "The Grit", an Athens landmark low-key veggie place. Whilst we were there, Lance Bangs, one of the R.E.M. film makers arrived, and we ended up going back to his place. Lance lives in a converted schoolhouse, which looks like a scene from the Young Ones. The place is jammed with video tapes, arcade games, ping pong table, strange art installations, pictures, papers and Polaroids everywhere.
Lance entertained us with stories about a local Nubian religious order who were building pyramids out in the Georgia wilderness, and with highlights from his alternative movie collection, including the epic "Heavy Metal Parking Lot" and the legendary bootlegged home video of Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee's honeymoon, which was pretty horrifying. I'd heard rumour that this tape existed - Pam & Tommy's home movie of themselves consummating their marriage. Let me tell you, it leaves absolutely nothing to the imagination.
Rolled back to our B&B in the wee small hours, feeling restored into the heart of Athens life. What wonderful, mad, inspiring and utterly nice people they all are.

La Russa said Friday he hasn't picked his DH for Game 1 yet, and judging from how La Russa has approached the decision in the past, the Cards' skipper could go any number of ways.
"I was starting to mess around on the plane with the lineups, and I really don't know for sure who the DH is yet," La Russa said. "I've got a suspicion that I might use a right-hand hitter, so you figure out which one of our right-handers might get in there, but even that's not for sure."
Boston will start right-hander Tim Wakefield, a knuckleballer, so the usual lefty-righty considerations aren't the only factors. With a knuckler facing his team, La Russa could decide to use a base-stealing threat like Roger Cedeno at DH.
Conditions are expected to be dank and cold, with the possibility of a light rain. La Russa could cast an eye toward the elements and decide to put Reggie Sanders in the DH role and use someone like So Taguchi to start in left field in place of Sanders. Both are right-handed hitters.
La Russa used Sanders at DH in an Interleague series at Kansas City back in June, and he put Albert Pujols as designated hitter at Oakland this summer when Pujols was recovering from a tendon injury. John Mabry, a left-handed hitter, took Pujols' spot at first base in that series.
Odds are La Russa will keep his core of key starters at their usual positions. Which still leaves the question as to who will be the DH in Game 1?
The right-handed options are Hector Luna, Taguchi and Yadier Molina, although Molina, a backup catcher, almost certainly won't be used as DH. Cedeno is a switch-hitter. Mabry and Marlon Anderson are the lefty DH options.
"Some guys make it work like it's no problem, but it's not normal, it's not easy," La Russa said.
Cardinals designated hitters batted .154 (4-for-26) with no extra base hits or RBIs this season, a number that could convince La Russa to try an unconventional approach like letting his starting pitcher hit.
Hey, why not?
Game 1 starter Woody Williams is one of the best hitting pitchers in the game, with a career .213 average, although he hit only .180 in 61 at-bats this season. Williams did contribute a key double in Game 1 of the National League Championship series against Houston.
"You know, he's not going to swing the bat and that's the right-handed DH I'm talking about," La Russa said. "I might just let Woody hit."

Creamy Dip
This tangy crowd-pleaser is the love child of ranch dressing and Greek tzatziki: creamy, cucumbery, and addictive. It's delicious with an array of cooked and raw veggies, and also, though they do nothing to further the vegetable cause, pita chips. Plus, it's versatile: skip the mint and add more dill, or experiment with other fresh herbs; omit the cucumber; or omit the cucumber and thin it with buttermilk to dress a salad.
Hands-On Time: 10 minutes
Ready In: 10 minutes
Yield: 1 1/2 cups
1 (7-ounce) container unflavored Greek 2 percent yogurt (or roughly the same amount o any other plain yogurt)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 clove garlic, pressed
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon each fresh dill and mint, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon grated lemon zest and 1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 a large cucumber
- Whisk together everything but the cucumber, which you should peel (a good job for a child who won't accidentally peel his own knuckles) and cut in half lengthwise before using a melon baller or small spoon to scrape out the seeds (another good job for a child).
- Grate the cuke on the large holes of a box grater, then squeeze it dry inside a dishcloth or a few layers of paper towel, stir it into the dip, and serve.

TAHITI's Miso was sent to the emergency room after the group's performance on KBS 2TV's 'Music Bank'. The idol is reported to have fainted shortly after leaving the stage.
Agency DS Entertainment stated, "Miso fainted due to overexertion after finishing the 'Music Bank' performance. It seems she overdid it while preparing for [TAHITI's] comeback."
"Miso mentioned that she wasn't feeling well ever since 'Music Bank' dry rehearsals and visited an Oriental medicine clinic, but afterwards, she kept shaking and wasn't able to keep it under control. However, she went on stage due to her own desire to be there to perform the new song and safely finished the performance. While leaving the stage, Miso suddenly fainted, and the manager called [911]. She was sent to the emergency room."
Hopefully, she'll recover soon.
TAHITI is currently promoting "Hasta Luego".
