When Miguel Cabrera finally ended his extra-base drought in the postseason, it had the air of finality to it - in just the fourth inning.
The A's couldn't put any kind of dent in Justin Verlander, as per usual in American League Division Series play, and for the second year in row, the Tigers ended Oakland's year, defeating the A's 3-0 in Game 5 on Thursday at the Coliseum. Detroit advances to the American League Championship Series against Boston.
"It's upsetting, two years in a row against the same guys," Oakland outfielder Josh Reddick said. "It's nerve-racking, especially when a guy has a perfect game in the sixth inning. That doesn't make it easier."
Cabrera banged a two-run homer to left off A's starter Sonny Gray in the fourth, and Detroit added a run on a groundout in the sixth. Gray, the A's prize rookie right-hander, incurred a broken bone in his left hand on a sharp grounder in the fifth and will get an MRI exam Friday.
Verlander, routinely hitting 96 to 97 mph with his fastball, didn't allow a hit until the seventh. He didn't give up a run in eight innings, extending his string of zeros against Oakland to 30 innings in a row, a postseason record for consecutive scoreless innings against one team.
Oakland has dropped six consecutive Game 5s.
"It's frustrating. We had a tremendous season and it would be great not to put ourselves in a Game 5 against Verlander again, but those are the cards we were dealt," A's left-hander Brett Anderson said. "It was a deja-vu situation."
Asked what the A's might do to change their postseason luck, A's third baseman Josh Donaldson said, "Not play Detroit again, I guess."
Detroit has claimed three consecutive postseason series against Oakland, including the 2006 ALCS; the A's have dropped nine of their past 10 postseason series overall.
The A's didn't get a runner off Verlander until the sixth, when Reddick walked with one out, and they didn't get a hit until the seventh, when Yoenis Céspedes singled with two outs. Céspedes has hit safely in all 10 postseason games in which he has played, the third longest postseason hitting streak in franchise history.
Reddick claimed the A's only other hit off Verlander.
"I've faced Verlander a lot, and that's the best I've ever seen him," Donaldson said. "He was throwing everything for strikes and when he elevates the fastball just above the strike zone, it's tough. The only time you're going to get to him is if he gets himself in trouble, and he didn't do that."
Verlander struck out 10 in his eight innings and he has 43 K's in his past four postseason starts and 31 innings against Oakland. He's allowed one run and 13 hits.
Given Verlander's dominance, it probably didn't matter all that much who opposed him on Thursday. Oakland's brain trust - the front office, manager Bob Melvin and pitching coach Curt Young - settled on Gray for the A's Game 5 starter, the more risky move than starting All-Star and veteran Bartolo Colon.
Early on, Gray looked much as he had in throwing eight scoreless innings in his postseason debut in Game 2, but in the fourth, Torii Hunter delivered the first hit of the game, a single to center. Cabrera then belted a 1-0 pitch out to left, his first homer of the postseason and just his third extra-base hit since Aug. 26.
Catcher Stephen Vogt blamed himself for calling an inside fastball, which Gray left over the plate.
"Sonny was great, just as good as advertised again" Vogt said. "One bad pitch to Cabrera, and that was probably my fault."
Gray broke a bone just below his left thumb fielding a comebacker by Fielder to end the fifth; he said that if there is ligament damage, he might need surgery.
Nevertheless, he came back out for the sixth.
"Sonny is a tough kid, that's all I've got to say," Vogt said. "That's him in a nutshell."
Gray allowed back-to-back singles by Victor Martinez and Jhonny Peralta to start the inning, and Dan Otero took over. Otero, reliable as ever, got two ground balls; the first, by Alex Avila, forced Peralta at second, and the second was a grounder to third by Omar Infante that appeared to be a potential double-play ball. Donaldson bounced the throw to second base, though, and Alberto Callaspo bobbled the transfer and couldn't get off a throw to first base.
"I didn't have a great grip and tried to get rid of it quick," Donaldson said. "Callo made a great play just to get the out."
Martinez scored on the play, and Otero finally got one last grounder, by Don Kelly, to end the inning.
The A's are now 1-12 in potential clinch games dating to the 1990 World Series.
"It's disappointing," first baseman Brandon Moss said. "Heartbreaking again. It feels like getting kicked in the stomach. But they won three, and they get to move on."

By TOM WITHERS
AP Sports Writer
CLEVELAND - When the pushing, shoving, finger pointing and customary taunting ended, and after his team rallied to pull out a difficult division win, Baltimore coach Jim Harbaugh was exhausted and relieved.
"Whew, he said. "That was a fight."
One the Ravens usually win.
Regrouping in the fourth quarter after failing to gain a single yard in the third, the Ravens got a 19-yard go-ahead touchdown pass from Joe Flacco to Torrey Smith with 4:26 to play Sunday and Baltimore's defense shut down Cleveland in the closing minutes for a 25-15 victory over the Browns.
It was Baltimore's 10th straight win over their division rival, and the Ravens' 11th consecutive victory inside one of the NFL's toughest divisions.
The Ravens (6-2) blew a 14-point lead, fell behind by one point in the fourth and finally made enough plays down the stretch to put away the Browns (2-7), who were unable to score a touchdown despite five trips inside Baltimore's 20-yard line and came up short again.
"That's been the tale of the season so far," said linebacker D'Qwell Jackson. "We get so close, and for whatever reason when the game's on the line, whether it's defensively or offensively, we can't seem to make that play."
Smith caught Flacco's strike and spun away from cornerback Joe Haden as the Ravens, who were throttled by 30 points at Houston two weeks ago, improved to 5-0 after a bye week under Harbaugh, now 10-0 against Cleveland since 2008.
After scoring TDs on runs by Ray Rice and Bernard Pierce on their first two possessions, the Ravens looked as if they might have an easy afternoon. But Cleveland's defense shut Baltimore down and Phil Dawson's fifth field goal, a 41-yarder with 8:48 left, gave the Browns a 15-14 lead.
The Ravens were in trouble. Flacco rescued them.
"Joe never blinked," Rice said.
Baltimore went six straight possessions without a first down when Flacco finally ended the drought by completing a 21-yard pass to Anquan Boldin on second-and-10 from Cleveland's 19.
"You need a play to get yourself going," Flacco said of his throw to Boldin. "That was a good one."
Two plays later, the Ravens caught a break when Browns safety T.J. Ward was called for roughing Flacco on a second-down blitz. Ward contested he did not hit Flacco in the head as the officials ruled.
"My chest hit him in the shoulder," Ward said. "My arm hit him in the back shoulder. I didn't touch his head or anything."
After Rice moved the ball closer to the end zone with two 10-yard runs, Flacco fired a slant pass on third-and-10 to Smith, who wheeled away from a flat-footed Haden and sprinted into the end zone to make it 20-15. The Ravens then converted the 2-point try with Flacco hitting a wide-open Boldin to extend the lead to seven.
Cleveland had plenty of time left and two timeouts to mount a comeback. But facing a fourth-and-2 at his own 28, Browns coach Pat Shurmur, who chose to punt two weeks ago at Indianapolis in similar circumstances, decided to go for it with 3:53 remaining.
However, rookie Brandon Weeden's pass for Greg Little was incomplete and the Ravens took over.
"I felt like we had a play that we liked and we didn't execute it," Shurmur said, who got defensive when pressed on his decision. "Had we converted and moved forward, then it would have been talked about on what a gutsy move it was, right?
Baltimore's Justin Tucker kicked a 43-yard field goal to put the Ravens up by 10.
The Browns' last chance ended when safety Ed Reed intercepted Weeden, who went 20 of 37 for 176 yards and two interceptions in an up-and-down performance for the 29-year-old.
Weeden's best throw of the game was called back.
With the Browns trailing 14-12, Weeden drilled an apparent 18-yard TD pass to rookie Josh Gordon, but the play was nullified by an illegal formation penalty because running back Chris Ogbonnaya didn't line up far enough off the line of scrimmage.
"It's frustrating," said running back Trent Richardson, who gained 105 yards. "But we can't point fingers. We all have to be accountable for what we do. I've got to run harder. We gotta make better calls. We have to make sure we pick up blocks and catch the ball, and we have to do the right things.
"Once you're in the red zone, you gotta score some kind of way. You've got to get in the end zone."

Just like fad diets for humans, popular diets for your pets come and go. However, there's one particular pet diet trend that gives us pause: ASPCA experts say raw food diets for pets that include raw meat, eggs and milk may be dangerous for your furry friends. We typically recommend that pet parents opt for well-balanced, high-quality commercial and cooked foods instead.
The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) agrees. In studies published in AVMA's journal, homemade and commercial raw food diets for dogs and cats were found to contain dangerous bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella, just to name a few. Other tests showed that unprocessed food diets can lead to nutrient deficiencies or excess that can cause serious illnesses in pets. Also, pets chewing on raw bones can lead to obstruction or perforation of their gastrointestinal tracts, and fractured teeth.
If you don't want to feed your dog or cat a commercial diet, consider a homemade diet that will diminish the risks of foodborne illnesses. These meals should be thoroughly cooked and need to be formulated by a veterinary nutritionist or by your veterinarian to make sure they're nutritionally sound.
If you are passionate about feeding your pet raw foods, please consider the following tips.
- Work with your veterinarian to ensure that your pet's diet is nutritionally balanced.
- Avoid feeding raw foods in homes with babies and toddlers (who put lots of things in their mouths), the elderly and those with compromised immune systems.
- Practice regular hand washing before and after feeding pets.
- Practice appropriate disposal methods when cleaning up pet feces.
For more information about pet-safe diets, consult your veterinarian and check out our complete list of people foods that are dangerous to pets.
Tell us in the comments below: Do you feed your pet raw foods or a homemade diet?
This is ridiculous! This they used t be wild, but the aren't anymore stuff is just asinine. Their digestive systems haven't gone through a metamorphosis because we brought them into our homes. And to say that raw food leads to deficiencies, come on! If you do it right and feed them organs and bones and some additives then they are getting more nutrition and a more well rounded diet than they will ever get from packaged food. Of course if you are feeding raw food it's best to make your own and use organic meet from a trusted butcher. It's what's natural for them, what they are designed for. Commercial food kills pets and gives them cancer in ever increasing numbers and cooking food destroys much of the nutrition. My guys have been eating raw food for 6 years now and I couldn't be happier with the results and neither could they. The is pure fear mongering by the pet food companies. Take a look at the cancer stats for pets. Why do you suppose they keep going up. I'm a pet sitter and have seen too many animals die and none of them of old age and none of them from eating raw food for that matter. And don't listen to what you traditional vet tells you about diet and raw food. Nutrition classes in vet schools are taught by Purina and I would never in a million years give my cats anything made by Purina even in an emergency. And I can't believe the ASPCA is perpetuating this ridiculousness. Shame on you! And Dr. Marty rocks!!
I find this discussion fascinating and must agree with the RAW advocates, although I rarely practice what I preach. I have an 11 yr old lab with a torn ACL and two 2yr old mixed toy dogs. All are getting Costco's Natures Domain kibble with turkey and sweet potato as first ingredients, along with about 50 other things, but no grains. All have good bowel habits, clean teeth and fine coats.
When my lab first tore her ACL, our holistic vet suggested chicken feet, raw eggs, yogurt, and fish oil. She did fine with that for years, until I got lazier. I also have fed them raw steak and cooked chicken. Bottom line for me: no grains, high end kibble, raw and cooked human food when possible.
When I asked about the dangers of E.coli in raw meat, vet said that she had never heard of dogs getting ill from E. coli. I am curious as to whether there are any studies of this matter. Do dogs not have an issue with E. coli?
Another minor question regards grapes. Common advice is no, but the dogs of CA vintners eat them routinely.
Great discussion.
I have had all my animals on a raw food diet for about 7 years, and
their health is spectacular. They look and act amazing for their age. Yes, you can feed them chicken bones if they are raw, just not cooked ones. The cooked ones splinter and will puncture the internal organs. I personally make my food for them. I buy chubs of ground turkey necks and ground turkey organs and make blend for them along with supplements. My only regret is that I
did not know about feeding animals raw when they were little.
If you are interested in learning about it, there is a book written by a New Zealand vet called B.A.R.F. (bones and raw food
diet) Google it.
Scientific study on the effectiveness of raw feeding- Very interesting and informative for those who are undecided:

Pottenger Cat Study: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_M._Pottenger,_Jr.#section_2
I wouldn't trust that study as later studies have proven it false. This is from the Wikipedia page that you linked to: "This article needs additional citations for verification. This article relies on references to primary sources (original materials that are close to an event, and are often accounts written by people who are directly involved. They offer an insider's view of an event)."
My greyhounds eat a freeze-dried Stella & Chewy chicken patty with their kibble twice a day. Does frozen-raw split the difference in this debate?
People do you realize how stupid you sound? WHAT ANIMAL ON THIS PLANET COOKS IT'S FOOD OTHER THAN HUMANS! You are so brainwashed by the pet food industry and it's killing your dogs! Just because the animal lives in your house does not mean its digestive system and nutritional needs has changed in the last 60 years that dog food became a hit. People are ignorant and would rather keep feeding a cereal to their dogs instead of what your dog thrives on. It's not an opinion it's a fact look at a biology book dogs are carnivores. The sooner you realize that animals do not cook their food the sooner you can save your dog or cat from that next bowl of crap you put down. Yes even grain free food is still processed.
It's anecdotal at best but my 2 yr old German shephard vomited EVERY time he ate. Until he ate raw.
Now he only gets sick when he eats something he shouldn't. He also had no interest in kibble. Who would? Imagine if our food was overly processed and beyond recognition as food. Oh wait, it is, and as humans we are obese, diabetic, and all around in horrible shape. My dog is strong healthy and interested in eating every meal. That's thanks to raw.
A Species Appropriate Raw diet (for a meat eating animal) is 80% meat, 10% bone and 10% organ, of with 5% should be liver and 5% other organs. For Raw feeders HEART meat is not considered to be an organ meat, but rather, due to the density a "Meaty Meat."
We do not feed big, dense, heavy weight baring bones, such as leg bones from LARGE animals, beef, elk, deer. These bones can crack teeth and are known as Wrecker Bones. Few beef bones are a good idea in general. However poultry, pig, goat, lamb bones are usually fully digestible by dogs. Cats tend to need smaller bones, quail, chicken (necks, wings, ribs) and, of course, feeder rodents. ALL BONES FED..MUST BE RAW. Cooking or using heat on bones causes them to become brittle and unsafe as they can then splinter into sharp shards. Raw bones are "soft" and digest.
Why not feed grains, fruits and veggies? (plant grown foods)
A lot of people feed their dogs veggies but if you look to nature, you will see that your dog wouldn't eat veggies in any measurable amounts. He might eat a few berries or maybe some grass but certainly not zucchini, carrots, potatoes or any of the veggies that many people feed. Also you must know that all the cells in all vegetable matter is covered by a think layer of cellulose. This cellulose must be crushed during the eating process in order for the nutrients in the vegetables to be available for digestion. This is called bioavailablity. The nutrients in vegetable matter is not bioavailable to our dogs because they don't have the flat molar teeth that plant eating animals do. Humans, for example, have flat molars for crushing cellulose during chewing. Dogs, cats and ferrets molars are called carnassal teeth and are not flat but work like scissors to rip and tear meat and crush bones. So, by looking at your dog's teeth, you can tell that veggies just are not appropriate food for them.
The stomach acid in a a dog is about 10 TIMES stronger than that of a human.
Commercial pet feeds OFTEN are recalled because they have " dangerous bacteria like E. coli and Salmonella, just to name a few" in them. The manufacturers are not worried about our dogs and cats getting Salmonella, their guts can deal with that. The manufacturer is worried that YOU AND I will handle the food, especially dry pet food, and because it IS "just dry food" we won't think to wash our hands and then we make a sandwich or do something else that transfers the salmonella to US...we get sick and SUE THEM.
Also, I think it's fair to share that most Vet Schools accept grants and large donations from two important companies (in the USA at least), Pet Food Manufacturers and Pharmaceutical Manufacturers.
Because of their generous donations, both industries are allowed to often TEACH or at least present information about vaccines and, important for this discussion...IDEAL PET DIETS/Nutrition.
FOLLOW THE MONEY... Who stands to gain or loose according to what you choose to feed your beloved companion animals? Who will gain or loose MONEY according to your choices? I think it's pretty clear here! If a Vet pays a pretty good amount of money to attend Vet School, and invests their time and money, is it not reasonable for them to ASSUME they are being given the best, right, correct information? You can't hardly blame them for believing what they are told!
But, remember...those zig-zag teeth DO NOT grind through the cell covering on plant grown foods...the nutrition is NOT bioavailable to our dogs, cats or ferrets!
So, why aren't all those commercial fed dogs and cats dead already? Because the manufacturers ADD broken-down already supplements to their food. Of course, they also add some other "interesting" things too.
The second link, I especially love. The writer is not for or against Raw feeding. He was simply doing research on the facts surrounding Commercially produced Pet food for his LEGAL paper at Harvard University! This is not a short read. However, you maybe surprised at what this guy uncovered in his search for the truth WE never hear about, as to what, exactly can be in our dog's food.
That is not to say that there are some things to learn...if you want to feed a Species Appropriate Raw Diet...
Cats need to mostly eat RED MEATS, beef, pork, deer. Feeding your cat or kitten almost nothing but chicken, is NOT a healthy, proper meat diet. They need Taurine and that's only found in Red meats! http://www.vetlord.org/taurine-is-essential-for-cats/
AVMA → Delta Society → Purina Petcare
At the end of the formal AVMA policy linked above, there is a statement about the resolution which says in part:
"At its spring 2011 meeting, the Council on Public Health and Regulatory Veterinary Medicine (CPHRVM), drafted a new policy to address an issue brought to its attention by Animal Welfare Division staff and the Delta Society (a non-profit organization that works with companion animals for animal assisted therapy, service animals, and other volunteers). Having a policy specific to raw diets and associated public health concerns, the Delta Society inquired if AVMA had a related policy."
More than a few raw feeders and others interested in the issue of species-appropriate pet nutrition are questioning the Delta Society (now called Pet Partners) link.
I published an article two years ago when Delta Society banned raw fed pets -- and any pet living in a home with raw fed pets -- from its highly regarded Pet Partners therapy program. It was an unanticipated move that stunned Delta's membership, affiliates and raw pet food enthusiasts across the U.S.
In researching possible explanations for this ill-advised decision, I uncovered a few clues:
On the home page of the Delta Society (Pet Partners) website you will find the following sentiment: "Thank you to our incredible partner, the passionate pet lovers at Purina." It's a safe bet the Purina logo is prominently featured on other Delta Society/Pet Partners marketing materials as well.
On the Delta Society's Board of Directors, you'll find Purina's Marketing Director.
In the Delta Society Medical Advisory Group, you'll find member Dr. Deborah S. Greco, DVM, PhD, DACVIM, of Nestle Purina Petcare in St. Louis, Missouri.
In 2008, Purina gave the Delta Society $400,000 – the largest grant ever received by the organization.
On the Purina One website, you'll find their marketing position on "Why You Shouldn't Feed Your Pet Raw Meat".
Clearly, Delta Society/Pet Partners is influenced by Nestle Purina. And according to the AVMA, Delta Society is one of two organizations that brought the "issue" of raw feeding to their attention, prompting the about-to-be-voted-on formal resolution against raw feeding.
To learn the truth about Raw Diets feel free to check out this group where you'll find about 25,000 people worldwide, who feed Raw. Some have been doing it for the past 10 to 50 YEARS. None of them stand to profit by what YOU choose to feed your animals.
The biggest problem with food - both for humans and animals - is the way it is processed. Meat and milk are dangerous to consume raw because of e-coli and other harmful bacteria. Hundreds of dairy cows and chickens, pigs and cattle are handled in a very fast manner. Regardless of whether you are opposed to factory farms or not, the huge number of animals and the sheer speed of these operations results in less than sanitary conditions. And if just one animal is sick, the entire food supply is contaminated because milk, ground meat, and the by-products in commercial pet food are mixed together. So the problem with raw food boils down to modern food processing.

very interesting. thank you

for National Geographic News

Hundreds of circles, squares, and other geometric shapes once hidden by forest hint at a previously unknown ancient society that flourished in the Amazon, a new study says.
Satellite images of the upper Amazon Basin taken since 1999 have revealed more than 200 geometric earthworks spanning a distance greater than 155 miles (250 kilometers).
(Related: "Huge Pre-Stonehenge Complex Found via 'Crop Circles.'")
Now researchers estimate that nearly ten times as many such structures—of unknown purpose—may exist undetected under the Amazon's forest cover.
At least one of the sites has been dated to around A.D. 1283, although others may date as far back as A.D. 200 to 300, said study co-author Denise Schaan, an anthropologist at the Federal University of Pará in Belém, Brazil.
The discovery adds to evidence that the hinterlands of the Amazon once teemed with complex societies, which were largely wiped out by diseases brought to South America by European colonists in the 15th and 16th centuries, Schaan said.
Since these vanished societies had gone unrecorded, previous research had suggested that soils in the upper Amazon were too poor to support the extensive agriculture needed for such large, permanent settlements.
"We found that this picture is wrong," Schaan said. "And there is a lot more to discover in these places."
Wide-reaching Culture
The newfound shapes are created by a series of trenches about 36 feet (11 meters) wide and several feet deep, with adjacent banks up to 3 feet (1 meter) tall. Straight roads connect many of the earthworks.
Preliminary excavations at one of the sites in 2008 revealed that some of the earthworks were surrounded by low mounds containing domestic ceramics, charcoal, grinding-stone fragments, and other evidence of habitation.
But who built the structures and what functions they served remains a mystery. Ideas range from defensive buildings to ceremonial centers and homes, the study authors say.
It's also possible the structures served different purposes over time, noted William Woods, a geographer and anthropologist at the University of Kansas in Lawrence who was not involved in the research.
"For example," he said, "in Lawrence there's a Masonic temple—it is now a bar. There was a bank—it is now a restaurant called Tellers. These things happen."
What most surprised the research team is that the earthworks appear in both the region's floodplains and the uplands.
In general, the Amazon's fertile floodplains have been popular sites for ancient civilizations, while the sparser uplands have been thought to be largely devoid of people, the researchers say.
What's more, the earthworks in both regions are of a similar style, suggesting they were built by the same society.
"In Amazonian archaeology you always have this idea that you find different peoples in different ecosystems," study co-author Schaan said.
"And so it was kind of odd to have a culture that would take advantage of different ecosystems and expand over such a large region."
"Astounding" Population
The uplands sites appear to have been home to as many as 60,000 people, Schaan and her colleagues suggest in their paper, published this month in the journal Antiquity.
That figure is based on estimates of the social organization and labor that would have been required to build the structures hinted at by the remaining earthworks.
According to the University of Kansas' Woods, the population estimate is reasonable, albeit rough, since so little is known about these complexes.
Answers may emerge as researchers continue to excavate the newfound shapes in the coming years.
But Woods is impressed by the possibility that so many people might have once lived in a region long thought uninhabited.
"Traditionally, if you would have asked an anthropologist or archaeologist how many people lived [in these Amazon uplands], they'd say almost zero," he said.
"And so this is astounding that there is 60,000 people making a go of it where there aren't supposed to be any."

Martin: Think about it. When the ancient Egyptian civilization fell, were all their buildings brand-new at the time? No. We even still have the Pyramids. The buildings that in some form survive the fall of a civilization do so either because of sheer luck, or because they were culturally important and therefore were built to last. Think of the Parthenon, the Sphinx, the Colosseum. Those buildings could have been very important to those peoples, and built by the many-times-great ancestors of the people who finally saw the fall of that civilization - the ones who died of European diseases.
ok help me out here..
the societies got wiped out by diseases brought to them from europe in the 15th century.. but some of the digsites date back to 200-300 A.D. one was 1283.. all these digsites are way older and should've been gone before the colonists arrived right?
so how can a society be wiped out by colonists that arrive hundreds of years later?
hi thank nice post i love nationalgeographic
@Jane O'Halloran , and in many cases when a new civ took over the old ones religious buildings they either kept it as is or in most cases just moved their god in to replace the old one
@Martin Ramaker Europeans and west asians were in the americas long before the vikings came, half of the east coast native americans in north america have R1b(celtic) genes. Crates of mallus lived around 200 bc and he created the first globe which included north and south america. Crespi artifact museum in equador contains egytpian, babylonian and roman artifacts found throughout south america. Thor Heyerdahl recreated an egyptian papyrus boat and sailed it from Morocco to south america to prove that egyptians could've sailed to the americas, there is actually an ancient tradition of papyus boat construction in Bolivia which may have been brought to them by egyptians. A roman shipwreck was discovered last year off the coast of brazil with coins inside, the shipwreck was literally buried by the brazilian government. The irish have the legend of the tutha de dannan, an advanced civilization that lived west of ireland on a massive island. Plato said that atlantis was straight west from the "pillars of hercules" or the mouth of the meditation. I don't think it's a coincidence that the only native american societies to get past the stone age were the societies that lived in the path of ocean currents that could've carried men from other, more ancient and advanced societies, I also don't think it's a coincidence that all signs of advanced civilization in mesoamerica appeared suddenly shortly after the height of the great civilizations of the then known world. Why do you think the pyramid of the sun has the exact same size base as the great pyramid of giza?

Super Sized Grilled Chicken Sammie
I am busy just like everyone else is these days. Never enough time between kids, husband work commitments meetings and a rather overwhelming obsession to all things BBQ .
Getting dinner to the table can be sometimes a bit of a chore. Its too expensive to eat out a lot & I don't often like grabbing things through the drive thru either. So I tend to make a lot of quick meals Monday to Thursday. The super sammie is one of my go -to meals for just such a rushed evening.
I have lots of chicken in my freezer at all times. Chicken thighs, legs, whole chickens and chicken breasts. I am not a fan of chicken breasts unless they are grilled, slathered, smoked or stuffed. Whenever I grill chicken I fill up my whole grill. Its a good idea to maximize your space and to prep for future meals.
Tonights sammie used up some chicken that I had previously grilled.. A quick inventory of my fridge revealed something we always have on hand Ajvar. Now you may not heard of this but I will highly recommend you get some. Its a Macedonian spread that can be either hot or mild made from roasted red peppers eggplant garlic spices and oil. Its pretty darn tasty on a whole lot of things.
Slather that on a store bought foccacia – I am not Martha. I bake occasionally- I have made it from scratch but seriously its the middle of the week and I have laundry to do. However if you are into it and have the time here is a great vid on how to make it:
I also added some ricotta and some finely shredded basil. Toasting the bread under the broiler or on a grill is a great idea if you like a nice crunchy texture.
Load it up with some grilled chicken breasts (warmed in the microwave) that have been sliced, the ajvar, radicchio and/ or some other spring greens. Sprinkle on the juice of one lemon all over the chicken breasts. Drizzle the bread with garlic infused olive oil. Season with pepper. My foccacia had olives on it so I opted out of using more salt.
Super easy simple and a quick midweek dinner. Under 15 mins to the table.
- 1 store purchased foccaccia
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts grilled & sliced
- 1/4 cup good quality garlic infused olive oil
- 1 cup ajvar mild or hot
- 1 1/2 cups ricotta cheese
- 6 or 7 large leaves of basil finely shredded
- juice of 1 small lemon freshly squeezed
- spring greens – radicchio endive etc.
- salt & pepper to taste
Serves 6 very generously or a family of 5 with leftovers for lunch the following day.
One Response to "Super Sized Grilled Chicken Sammie"
So is ajvar similar to roasted red pepper pesto? Sounds like it. Great looking sandwich, HUGE!

Opera Lecture
AFTERNOON AT THE OPERA: Rigoletto. The hunchbacked jester of the Duke of Mantua seeks revenge after the Duke seduces his daughter, but his attempt ends in disaster. First performed at the Teatro La Fenice in Venice in 1851, Rigoletto represented a watershed moment in the career of Giuseppe Verdi. By 1855, Rigoletto had been performed in Austria, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Germany, Russia, England, Spain, Greece, Portugal and New York City. Within the next two years he would follow Rigoletto with Il Trovatore and La Traviata, cementing his stature as the most important composer of Italian opera. Rigoletto combines some compelling musical-dramatic scenes (including father-daughter duets and a quartet) with some of the most famous tunes Verdi ever composed. Join Professor James Kolb for an exploration of this classic work. 3 p.m.

This is a sheer powder blush whose suede-smooth texture applies beautifully. Each of the shades is infused with some shimmer, but the product application is so sheer that it doesn't pose a problem for daytime wear. Ignore the long-wearing claims because this will wear just as well, but not better than, any other similarly formulated powder blush. The Flush shade is a beautiful pale pink that also works great as a highlighter.
Perhaps one of the most interesting things about Smashbox is that its name refers to the early, accordion-style cameras and that Smashbox is first and foremost a Hollywood-based photography studio. The company's creators, Dean and Davis Factor, have their heritage in makeup—their great-grandfather was the legendary makeup artist Max Factor. However, this seems to be a case where the proverbial apple didn't fall all that close to the tree. It is apparent that Dean and Davis are better at their respective careers as CEO and photographer, respectively, than at creating a cosmetics line. The makeup, which debuted in 1996, began as a collection of trendy and fashion-forward colors coupled with a pleasingly neutral palette of foundations, concealers, and powders. Nowadays, many of the colors are too sheer to register on medium to dark skin tones, shiny products abound, and several of the complexion-enhancing products just don't look as natural on skin as they should. In fact, the foundations and concealers could use some updating; they haven't kept pace with what other makeup artistry lines are launching, and don't demonstrate much longevity under normal conditions, as in day-to-day casual makeup.
Realizing that celebrities sell products better than the product claims themselves, Smashbox steadily capitalizes on its ties to Hollywood and often mentions several famous faces who wear their products. Their counter brochures follow suit, tempting women to sit down with a Smashbox artist to get the star treatment. It's easy to get caught up in the hype, but as a comprehensive line Smashbox doesn't have what it takes to create A-list glamour, at least not if you're looking for cutting-edge textures and finishes.

Holiday History: What May Have Been Served at the First Thanksgiving
The first Thanksgiving is a subject of a lot of speculation, but historians seem to agree that our current holiday traditions were born out of the values of hearth and home that evolved much later than this initial feast. Though the meal as a whole looks very different than what we're used to, some of the very first dishes passed around the table featured ingredients we still use today. Looking to host an authentic autumn feast? When possible, we've included recipes that hearken back to the pilgrims' plates.
Still set on serving a turkey for your Thanksgiving feast? Try one of the these great takes on turkey.
By Linnea Zielinski
In the very little written text we have about the first Thanksgiving, one thing is made clear there was some kind of bird, and lots of it. Historians guess it was most likely duck and swan because of local wildlife. America was populated with some wild turkey, but if the pilgrims shot any that day for the feast, no one mentioned it in the descriptions.
Recipe: Maple-Glazed Whole Duck with Savoy Cabbage

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Appleton Estate Extra Old 12 Year
Review Update: Appleton Estate Extra Old 12 Year Jamaican Rum (92/100)
a review re visitation by Arctic Wolf (Aka Chip Dykstra)
(Revised November 2012)
It was in April of 2009, that I wrote my first rambling reviews on the Ministry of Rum. If you search their old threads you will come across my original write-up on the Appleton 12 year Old Rum. It was in truth the first 'review' I ever wrote. It really wasn't meant to be a review; but more of a fun write-up to let the members of that forum know what I liked and didn't and why. That rambling thread is responsible for all that followed. About 6 months later I started this website and that write-up on the Ministry of Rum became the first review I placed on my website, just a little more fleshed out but in essence that same 'review' I wrote originally.
In November 2012 I revisited the Appleton 12 year Old Rum and found that my appreciation of the rum had increased substantially. The Rum has improved over the last three years (or perhaps my taste has).
In the Bottle 4/5
The Appleton Estate Extra Old comes in the signature Appleton Estate Rum Bottle. This is the same bottle that is used in their entire line up. I have no quibble with the bottle; it is a nice distinctive design which looks just fine. My quibble is with the screw cap. It is the pressed on variety which always gives me problems. Metal caps expand and contract in heat and cold at a different rate than glass. In my climate where temperatures can change drastically this cap makes me nervous. As well these pressed on caps tend to warp easily ruining the seal on the rum.
In the Glass 9/10
This is a pleasingly dark spirit in the glass. We have a rich brown colour with red inky highlights. Swirling the glass leaves a nice thick coating on my glencairn glass which coalesces at the top of the swirl and then lays thick fat legs which slide slowly down the side of the glass back into the spirit.
The aroma has a light alcohol tinge with a deep dark brown sugar spice behind it. Oak tannin and citrus zests arise in the aroma as well as a darker more burnt smell akin to charred coconut and caramelized sugars. I believe I am beginning to catch some nutty accents as well.
In the Mouth 56.5/60
The rum is nice and soft in my mouth. I taste a dominant trio of dark brown sugar, charred caramel, and a spicy oak which asserts itself firmly into the flavour profile. I found if I was patient, and let the rum sit in my glass and then sipped very slowly, I could catch the nuances of other more subtle flavours underneath. These lighter flavours included a light hint of tangy citrus, a touch of spicy orange peel, a mild walnut and toasted coconut. These milder flavours keep the rum interesting, and I seem to be enjoying this a little more each time I return to the rum.
In the Throat 13.5/15
The finish is long with a mildly bitter, but spicy backbite in my throat and palate. My empty glass has a rich rum and brown sugar smell which is very pleasing to nose after the rum is gone. The burn is much gentler than the Appleton Estate Reserve, and I have no problem sipping this rum straight or with ice.
The Afterburn 9/10
I like this Appleton rum and it seems to me to be a very large jump in quality from the Appleton Reserve. And in fact every time I bring down a bottle from my shelf I seem to like it more. The spicy oak flavour combined with the dark brown sugar and baking spices is a winning combination.

Suggested Cocktail:
I have found that the Appleton Extra is one of my favourite premium rums to mix with cola and in cocktails. It adds so much extra flavour that even though the rum is pricier than a regular mixer, the resulting drink is well worth the effort. The Appleton Extra with its complex flavour profile also works very well in duo cocktails like the El Padrino, and the Royal Batiste.
I try, however, to be original; so thought I would try to come up with a new cocktail for the Appleton Extra. My thoughts were to the subtle flavours of citrus and orange peel which I found under the more dominant flavours of spicy oak, brown sugar, and charred caramel which I thought could accentuated with a nice sweet liqueur. Using real fruit juice would continue this theme and an orange slice garnish would top off the presentation. Looking in my cupboard I located a bottle of Galliano and the Appleton Extra Swizzle was born.
The Appleton Extra Swizzle
1 ½ oz Appleton 12 Extra
½ oz Galliano
1 oz Pineapple Juice
½ oz Lime Juice
¼ tsp Sugar Syrup
Pour into a tall glass full of cracked ice and stir until the glass frosts
Garnish with an orange slice

You may (loosely) interpret the scores as follows.
0-25 A spirit with a rating this low would actually kill you.
26-49 Depending upon your fortitude you might actually survive this.
50 -59 You are safe to drink this…but you shouldn't.
60-69 Substandard swill which you may offer to people you do not want to see again.
70-74 Now we have a fair mixing rum or whisky. Accept this but make sure it is mixed into a cocktail.
75-79 You may begin to serve this to friends, again probably still cocktail territory.
80-84 We begin to enjoy this spirit neat or on the rocks. (I will still primarily mix cocktails)
85-89 Excellent for sipping or for mixing!
90-94 Definitely a primary sipping spirit, in fact you may want to hoard this for yourself.
95-97.5 The Cream of the Crop
98+ I haven't met this bottle yet…but I want to.
Very loosely we may put my scores into terms that you may be familiar with on a Gold, Silver, and Bronze medal scale as follows:
70 – 79.5 Bronze Medal (Recommended only as a mixer)
80 – 89.5 Silver Medal (Recommended for sipping and or a high quality mixer)
90 – 95 Gold Medal (Highly recommended for sipping and for sublime cocktails.)
95.5+ Platinum Award (Highest Recommendation)

Thank you for the review, great info. I just brought two bottles from Jamaica and can't wait to open them. Looks like a good choice. I usually drink whiskey so this will be a nice change. Thanks again!

Nice review, I also read your 30 yr and 21 yr reviews as well and I feel your review of the 21 yr was spot on. I have a bottle of the 30 yr I have not tried yet. Personally my favorite of the Appleton's and my favorite rum overall is the 12 yr Appleton. Spiced rum is what I love and taste is what I love about it, I agree the oakiness of the 21 could be toned down a notch but its still a good overall rum, Its just due to my personal taste I like the 12 year the most. I take from your reviews that we may have similar taste and therefore I would probably agree with your review of the 30 year as well. Personally I like the use of oak barrels in wines and in rums as well also scotch and bourbon but when it comes to spiced rums there is such a thing as overdoing the oakiness. I have been to Appleton's distillery and they are not using new oak barrels but I still taste what you you refer to as the tannins starting to overpower the spices in the 21 yr. As a fan of balance I find the 12 yr rum to be my favorite rum and not just in the Appleton selection but overall. Many people disagree saying they love this or that better many liking the 21 yr more but not many people I know have had the 30 yr. To me it comes down to taste and everybody is different, I believe the oak tannin you taste and smell is actually added for taste and not from the barrels.
