Cahill faces Tigers looking to jump-start resurgence
Righty makes second start since stint in Minors, takes on Sanchez
Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson called Trevor Cahill's last outing a "good starting point."
On Wednesday, the 26-year-old right-hander will look to move forward.
It has been a tough season for Cahill, who made his first start since April 13 -- and first start since returning from a stint at Triple-A Reno -- on July 18 against the Cubs.
Cahill was serviceable, but not dominant, in his return to the starting rotation, allowing three runs on four hits in five frames against the Cubs in a come-from-behind victory for Arizona.
"Still kind of a work in progress," said Cahill after the start, admitting he felt some nerves. "Felt good out of the windup … but the stretch doesn't feel as comfortable -- still making improvements."
Overall, Cahill is 1-6 with a 5.63 ERA this year in 20 appearances (five starts), and he's 2-2 with a 4.15 ERA in five career starts against the Tigers.
He'll match up against Detroit right-hander Anibal Sanchez, who has been up and down in his last few outings.
Sanchez is 2-2 with a 5.23 ERA in his previous five starts. In his most recent outing, Sanchez blanked the Indians through six innings before combining with the Tiger bullpen to allow a seven-run seventh inning. Sanchez was responsible for four of those runs, while not recording an out in the inning.
"The ball got up in the zone," Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said. "He was real crisp up until that point, but it was almost like he hit a wall."
Working in Sanchez's favor is a history of success against Arizona. He's 3-1 with a 3.51 ERA against the D-backs in his career in six starts, and he threw a no-hitter against them in 2006.
Tigers: Jackson thriving in leadoff spot
Seeing that his center fielder was struggling, Ausmus talked to Austin Jackson in late June about adjusting his role.
He decided to move him from the middle of the order back to the leadoff spot -- where Jackson has thrived ever since.
"I don't want to say it was a last resort, but it was something that -- after talking to Austin -- I felt like the comfort of being in a spot he was familiar with might be easier at this point," Ausmus said.
Since the switch on June 29, Jackson is hitting .325 (27-for-83) in 20 games.
How long would Ausmus have stuck with Jackson if he continued to struggle?
"It probably would have depended on performance," Ausmus said. "It didn't start out great. I think he struck out ... four strikeouts the first game. But with baseball, one game obviously isn't an indicator. It probably would have been a few weeks, I imagine. It didn't happen, so I don't really know."
D-backs: Ross back on disabled list
D-backs right fielder Cody Ross is back on the 15-day disabled list, this time because of a left calf strain.
He was replaced on the Major League roster prior to Tuesday night's game against the Tigers at Chase Field by Alfredo Marte, who was recalled from Triple-A Reno.
Ross missed most of Spring Training and the opening weeks of the season, recovering from last year's severe hip injury and surgery, returning on April 18.
Ross, 33, is hitting .238 with five doubles, two home runs and 11 RBIs in 66 games this season. In his last 25 games, he batted .358 (19-for-53) with three doubles, a home run and four RBIs.
"The last thing you want to do is try to keep playing on it and it could end up being worse," Ross said. "It's frustrating after putting in so much work and effort and then coming up with something like this. It sets you back, but there's nothing you can really do about it."
Worth noting:
• Paul Goldschmidt was named the D-backs' recipient of the annual Heart and Hustle Award from the Major League Baseball Players Alumni Association. He is one of 30 winners, which were announced on Tuesday
• The MLB Players Alumni Association announced utility player Don Kelly as the Tigers' 2014 Heart and Hustle Award winner.

Cards continue pursuit of NL Central title vs. Nats
Washington looks to keep playoff hopes alive in visit to St. Louis
The Cardinals clinched a spot in the postseason before they even took the field Sunday, but they're hardly content with the thought of another one-game playoff deciding their fate this October.
Heading into the season's final week, St. Louis still has its eyes set on winning the National League Central for the first time since 2009. The Cardinals' magic number over the Pirates and Reds is five, and they'll look to chip away at that figure Monday, when they return to Busch Stadium to start a three-game series against the Nationals.
Rest assured, manager Mike Matheny said, the Cardinals are going to push hard for the division crown, not coast into October as they rest up for the postseason.
"We have work ahead of us and things that we need to do here. Really, our mindset should be we have to go out and win every day," Matheny said. "Right now, we have a lot of games we have to win in the next [six] games."
The Nationals truly can't afford to lose, either. With six games remaining, Washington will enter play Monday five games behind Cincinnati and Pittsburgh for a Wild Card spot. The defending NL East champions' hopes are slim, but they're still alive. Interestingly, manager Davey Johnson said over the weekend that he was more intrigued by how the Cardinals were doing than the Reds-Pirates series.
"It would be nice to come in there and play well against them and tighten it up even further," Johnson said. "Nothing worse than thinking about winning a division then losing it and having a one-game playoff. That would be the absolute worst thing."
Not that Johnson and the Nationals have any sympathy for the Cardinals, who knocked them out last year in the fifth game of a dramatic NL Division Series.
"No, not really," Johnson said, smiling. "First of all, they swept us here, and then they didn't do us any favors last year. So I'd like to get back on an even-keel with them."
The Cardinals have a lot of things working in their favor. They'll finish out the season at home, where they have gone 48-27 this year, and they have ace Adam Wainwright heading to the mound Monday. Wainwright worked 7 2/3 innings Wednesday against the Rockies after allowing two runs in the first, leaving after striking out eight and giving up one more run.
Washington will counter with one of its hottest starters in right-hander Tanner Roark, thriving while filling in as the Nats' fifth starter. Roark improved to 7-0 this season with a win Tuesday against the Braves, lowering his ERA to just 1.08 on the season.
Nationals: Bullpen ready, 'all good' for stretch run
• While it helped to have Dan Haren and Stephen Strasburg pitch six innings apiece, Washington had to call upon seven relievers during Sunday's doubleheader. Right-hander Drew Storen was asked about having to weather that just before facing the Cardinals' tough offense and whether that will affect the bullpen. Suffice it to say he didn't sound too concerned.
"It's September, man. It's all good," Storen said. "We've got good depth down there. We've got a lot of confidence in our starters."
• The Nationals have won nine of their last 10 series since taking three of four at Wrigley Field from Aug. 19-22.
Cardinals: Hot-hitting Holliday scratched
• Matt Holliday, who has been St. Louis' hottest hitter as of late, was scratched Sunday night due to back spasms. Matheny said Holliday, who went 13-for-26 on the club's road trip, was available off the bench if needed, but the fact that he couldn't start calls into question whether he can play Monday.
Holliday was slated to bat third and start in left field. He was replaced by Shane Robinson when he couldn't loosen up enough while taking pregame swings.
Holliday had started all 55 of the Cardinals' games since coming off the disabled list on July 27, hitting .343 with a .429 on-base percentage and 44 RBIs during that stretch.
• Matheny said it's "too early" to say how the Cardinals could change up their rotation to prepare for the postseason. For now, they'll remain in order. With Thursday's off-day, St. Louis has the ability to pitch Wainwright on normal rest Saturday, and the club has made it clear that Wainwright would ideally start the first game of the postseason, whether it's Game 1 of the NLDS or the NL Wild Card game.
Worth noting
• Roark hasn't allowed a home run over his 41 2/3 innings pitched in the Majors.
• Wainwright needs only four strikeouts to match his single-season high of 213 in 2010. He's also 3 2/3 innings shy of tying the career-high 233 innings he threw in 2009.

No. You can't have your menstrual period while you're pregnant.
Some women do have vaginal bleeding during pregnancy. Some even report intermittent bleeding that seems like a regular period to them. But vaginal bleeding during pregnancy is not the same thing as menstruation.
Menstruation only happens when you're not pregnant: Each month, your uterus grows a thick blood-rich lining in preparation for an egg to embed there. If you don't get pregnant that month, you shed this tissue and blood – that's your menstrual period.
But once an egg embeds in the uterine lining, hormones tell the blood-rich tissue to stay intact to support the growing baby. And you won't shed it and start having your period again until your pregnancy is over.
Bleeding occurs during pregnancy for various reasons, some serious and some not. Some women have light bleeding or spotting very early in pregnancy – near the time their period is due – and they may mistake that for a period. No one knows what causes this.
Some experts have suggested it might be "implantation bleeding" caused by the fertilized egg burrowing into the blood-rich lining of the uterus. It's generally a lot lighter than a typical period and lasts just a day or two.
You may have spotting after a Pap smear, vaginal exam, or sex. This is because there's more blood going to your cervix during pregnancy.
Bleeding can also be a sign of something seriously wrong, such as an infection, placental problems, miscarriage, or an ectopic pregnancy, which can be life-threatening. (See our article on vaginal bleeding in pregnancy for a complete rundown of possible causes.)
If you notice bleeding, call your doctor or midwife right away, even if the bleeding has stopped. Many women who bleed a little during pregnancy deliver without complications, but you may need an evaluation to rule out a serious problem.
If you're actively bleeding or have severe pain of any kind and can't immediately reach your practitioner, head straight to the emergency room.

Some Amish feel ripped off in shale deals, but hesitate to sue
Blog Entry:
June 10, 2013 9:58 AM | Author: SCOTT SUTTELL
Lloyd Miller, an Amish farmer in eastern Ohio, says he and his wife "took turns kicking each other in the butt" as a result of an unfavorable drilling lease deal in which they earned "ten dollars an acre compared to $1,000" for some of their neighbors.
So the Millers probably sued, right? Don't make that assumption, according to
this story
The New Republic
"The Amish interpretation of the Christian bible prohibits the use of the courts: Except in rare circumstances, the Amish do not sue," according to the magazine. That means that "in the thousands of cases in which the landowner is of the Amish faith," extraction companies have a business partner that "would never dream of taking them to court should things go awry."
Eastern Ohio, home to the largest Amish community in the world, "sits squarely on top of the Utica and Marcellus shale formations, which contain billions in oil and gas recoverable through advances in hydraulic fracturing technology, or fracking,"
The New Republic
As close readers of
magazine know, extraction companies "are buying up the rights to drill on private property with unprecedented speed," the magazine notes. "At stake are geysers of money. And in the thousands of cases in which the landowner is of the Amish faith, their business partner would never dream of taking them to court should things go awry. This, obviously, has enticed some companies to take advantage of Amish farmers — who are finally figuring out how to fight back."
Aware of the complications caused by a prohibition on lawsuits, "some (Amish) bishops have decided that their flock can pursue what's known as a declaratory judgment, in which a judge merely interprets a contract,"
The New Republic
While many are uncomfortable with that, at least one Amish couple in Holmes County — a bishop named Reuben Schlabach and his wife, Sara — "are currently pursuing this option to try to have a lease voided," according to the magazine.
The process "still unfolds in a courtroom, but the arrangement is more palatable because there are no monetary awards involved and no jury."
This and that
Charting a growth course:
Here's a more
upbeat development
on the shale front.
Ten years ago,
Chart Industries Inc.
of Garfield Heights "was on the verge of bankruptcy after taking on too much debt during a spree of acquisitions that included an equipment maker for storing cryogenic liquids like liquefied natural gas," according to a Reuters profile of the company.
Today, "those products, as well as others that are used to make, transport and store LNG, have made Chart a winner in the U.S. shale gas boom and transformed the company into a darling of those seeking to cash in on the push to use natural gas as a fuel for transportation and industry," the news service says.
Investment firms including Artisan Partners Asset Management Inc., Vanguard and BlackRock each have acquired stakes of more than 5% in Chart, "and they have enjoyed quite a ride," Reuters reports. "The stock has doubled in the last two years, including a 43 percent gain in 2013 alone. Some on the Street have signaled that it may be time to take profits, but big hitters in the stock are sticking with it."
STEM's at the root of success:
Cleveland is an above-average performer when it comes to the share of its workers in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) fields, according to a
new analysis
from The Brookings Institution.
As of 2011, 26 million U.S. jobs — 20% of all jobs — require a high level of knowledge in any one STEM field, Brookings says. STEM jobs have more than doubled as a share of all jobs since the Industrial Revolution, from less than 10% in 1850 to 20% now, according to the study. (I'd have thought it would have increased more than that. Shows what I know.)
In the Cleveland/Elyria/Mentor MSA, 21.3% of jobs are in STEM fields, Brookings finds.
A strong share of STEM-related jobs is critical, according to Brookings, because "half of all STEM jobs are available to workers without a four-year college degree, and these jobs pay $53,000 on average — a wage 10 percent higher than jobs with similar educational requirements."
Quick thinkers:
The New York Times
comes away
highly impressed
by the culture of mortgage lender
Quicken Loans
, founded by
Cleveland Cavaliers
owner Dan Gilbert.
The piece, for a recurring consumer-oriented feature called "The Haggler," is headlined, "An Oasis in a Desert of Customer Service," and it mostly marvels at the company's efforts to pay attention to detail.
From the story:
Mr. Gilbert and Bill Emerson, the chief executive, spend a lot of time and energy instilling a very particular work ethos into employees. For newcomers, this involves a daylong speech/indoctrination led by Mr. Gilbert, who, on the day the Haggler caught his act, spoke for eight hours, with a break for lunch, wearing a clip-on red bow tie. (Presenting the serious in the guise of the slightly comic, with plenty of punch lines, turns out to be one of his specialties.) The speech occurs once every five weeks or so and is delivered to recent hires, usually in a conference room of a hotel.
You can learn a lot about Quicken Loans from this presentation, which revolves around the company's "isms," a set of pithy summations of principles. Some, like "Responding with a sense of urgency is the ante to play," are self-explanatory. Others, like "Every client. Every time. No exceptions. No excuses," come with their own wittily phrased elaborations. ("Clients don't care how much you know until they know how much you care.")
And many, like "We'll figure it out," make sense only with elucidation: "Not everything comes with a set of instructions. The innovators of the world are often exploring uncharted territory."
The story stipulates that none of these insights are "blazingly original," but it quotes Mr. Emerson as saying,
"If you don't create a culture at your company, a culture will create itself. And it won't be good. I sometimes hear people say 'We don't have a culture at our company.' They have one. But if it hasn't been nurtured, if no one has spent on any time on it, you can assume it's the wrong culture."

Bulls here
I don't like it personally IMO there's a deadline for a reason, but if the league overwhelmingly thinks it's ok; i'll approve.
How come the pre draft rankings are all jacked up?
I joined yesterday, as the Hornets (REAL SHOCKER they were still left...). Also, how is the draft order going to be determined?
I just joined as the Bobcats.

Most likely the order chosen at random and serpentine. Meaning if you pick 1st in the 1st round, you will pick last in the next round, and so on. Serpentine drafts help even the odds amongst the playing field and the talent level of your team depends on if you really know how to draft.
Yep, but deciding the serpentine order i believe is random.
joined as 76ers!
Are we keeping the draft time where it is or was that a random time just to start up the league?
Random. Please post your preference. on the draft day and time, just know Sundays are out please.
any day but Saturday which is your Friday night/Sat morning
Friday or Saturday evening. Don't start too late
Let's draft tonight (Friday).

text: VAIL, Colorado - Within an hour after a roughly 70 mile per hour crash that caused Lindsey Vonn to tear two knee ligaments and fracture part of her tibia, the reigning alpine skiing World Cup champion wanted to know how long it would be before she could get back on her skis.U.S. Ski Team physician Dr. Bill Sterett was by Vonn's side after her super-G crash at the World Alpine Ski Championships in Schladming, Austria. He told the Vail Daily Wednesday that journalists aren't the only ones who want to know when the champion will race again. "She's asking the same thing," Sterett said, adding that Vonn's spirits are "really, really good.""Everyone's been happy to see how upbeat she is through all this," Sterett said. "The best way to describe it is that she's determined - she's extremely determined and very focused."Sterett, a surgeon with Vail-Summit Orthopaedics, plans to fly back to the United States with Vonn and said he will operate on her knee next week in Vail. Sterett, the head team physician for the U.S. Women's Alpine Team, has been treating Vonn since she was a child, according to a statement released by Vail-Summit Orthopaedics.Vonn tore the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and medial collateral ligament (MCL) in her right knee, both of which require surgery, and she also suffered an impaction fracture of the tibial plateau, which Sterett said should not require surgery.The fracture, however, means Vonn will not be able to bear weight on that leg until the fracture heals. Vonn's right leg apparently buckled as she landed a jump in Tuesday's race. She was airlifted to a nearby hospital and was released later in the day.In a statement released through her publicist Wednesday morning, Vonn was already talking about training for the Olympics."First off I want to say thank you to the amazing medical staff that cared for me. I plan on returning to Vail as soon as I can to have the necessary surgeries. I am also grateful to my fans for the outpouring of support, which has really helped me stay positive," Vonn said. "I can assure you that I will work as hard as humanly possible to be ready to represent my country next year in Sochi."'Freakish'Vonn's injuries mean she'll be out for the remainder of the World Cup season but is expected to return for the 2013-14 World Cup season, which begins in October, and 2014 Olympics, according to the U.S. Ski Team. Sterett said Vonn is focused on her recovery and is already looking toward next season. "Absolutely that's her focus at this point," Sterett said.Focus has never been a weakness for Vonn. Her former coach John Cole, the human performance director at Ski & Snowboard Club Vail, calls Vonn's determination and athletic ability "freakish."Cole worked with Vonn when he was the on-hill coach at Ski Club Vail, and he also directly coached Vonn when she was a J2 and J3-level athlete. Vonn has continued to occasionally work out with Ski Club Vail and has remained in touch with Cole.Cole, a strength and conditioning specialist, knows as well as anyone what kind of mindset Vonn has when she trains. As media reports since the crash have questioned whether Vonn will be ready for the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Cole has little doubt."I wouldn't count her out at all," he said. "I think she'll be an excellent patient, and she's certainly in good hands with Bill (Sterett)."Cole said recovery comes down to two things: How fast the human body can heal, and a patient's ability to suffer.As for the body's ability to heal, everyone's different. But a patient's ability to suffer comes down to work ethic and desire, Cole said, something he said Vonn has in spades."She already works out like an animal," Cole said. "It's freakish, in a good way. This is her world - this is her life."When Vonn crashed during the World Championships in 2011 and suffered a concussion, she rested for just 10 days before she raced again. She did say watching the World Championships on TV was awful, though."I trained one day in slalom to see if the concentration was still there and it was right back where it was, just like before," she told the Vail Daily in April 2011. "Then I went to Sweden for the races and it was no problem." Bouncing back from her current injuries will take hard work and a lot of physical therapy - therapy that's often excruciating, Cole said. "It's a painful process - it's certainly not what I would consider fun," Cole said. Cole has a feeling he knows what the outcome of this story will be: Vonn will be back, and she'll be as strong, if not stronger, than ever. All the media reports questioning whether this could be it for Vonn's career - that kind of talk is only going to fuel the fire for Vonn, Cole said. "She'll prove the doubters wrong," he said.Assistant Managing Editor Lauren Glendenning can be reached at 970-748-2983 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

FACTS & STATS: Site: McCarthy Athletic Center (6,000) -- Spokane, Washington. Television: ROOT-NW, KHQ. Home Record: Pepperdine 5-6, Gonzaga 10-1. Away Record: Pepperdine 4-6, Gonzaga 6-1. Neutral Record: Pepperdine 1-0, Gonzaga 4-0. Conference Record: Pepperdine 2-7, Gonzaga 7-0. Series Record: Gonzaga leads, 43-31.
GAME NOTES: Sporting their highest ranking since December of 2008, the sixth- ranked Gonzaga Bulldogs continue their run through the rest of the West Coast Conference as they entertain the Pepperdine Waves at the McCarthy Athletic Center on Thursday night.
Pepperdine comes in two games under .500 overall (10-12) and five games below that mark in conference play (2-7). The Waves have lost three straight and six of their last seven games, the most recent of which being an 86-78 home verdict versus San Francisco last Saturday. Pepperdine is a very young team, as eight of the 11 players expected to dress for this game are either freshmen or sophomores. Beginning with this contest, the Waves will play five of their final seven regular-season games on the road where they are 4-6 this season.
Gonzaga is riding a four-game win streak entering this fray, the latest of which being a nail-biter as it survived a conference clash at San Diego, 65-63 last weekend. The Bulldogs are now 21-2 on the year, and a perfect 7-0 in WCC play. The win was GU's ninth straight against the Toreros and its 31st in the last 33 meetings between the two teams. The Zags are 10-1 at home this season.
Gonzaga owns a 43-31 lead in the all-time series with Pepperdine, and the Bulldogs have won the last 23 meetings, including a 78-62 road victory in the WCC opener for both teams this year. Elias Harris and Kelly Olynyk scored 18 and 16 points, respectively to lead the Bulldogs in that clash, while the Waves were paced by Lorne Jackson and Jordan Baker who combined for 31 points.
The last victory for the Waves in the series was back in 2002 in Malibu.
Despite decent shooting percentages (.451 overall, .367 from 3-point range), Pepperdine averages a lackluster 64 ppg. Defensively, the team allows 66.5 ppg behind typical shooting efforts of .414 overall and .353 from beyond the arc. The Waves, who own a +2.0 rebounding margin but are -3.1 in turnover differential, have three double-digit scorers in the form of Jackson (14.3 ppg, 3.4 rpg, 2.8 apg), Baker (11.7 ppg, 4.5 rpg, 3.2 apg) and Stacy Davis (10.7 ppg, 7.4 rpg), and it was Jackson who paced the club in the recent loss to San Francisco, tallying 20 points and seven rebounds. Davis put forth a monster effort off the bench, logging a double-double consisting of 18 points and 15 boards, the Waves claiming a 35-27 rebounding advantage and a 16-10 edge in points from the foul line. Both teams shot at least 50 percent from the field, but the Dons were an am incredible 14-of-24 on their 3-point attempts.
Gonzaga comes in with averages of 79.3 ppg for and 61.7 ppg against, giving it the fifth-best scoring margin in the country (+16.9). The team boasts three double-digit scorers, with Olynyk (18.0 ppg, 6.9 rpg), Harris (15.0 ppg, 7.1 rpg) and Kevin Pangos (11.6 ppg, 3.5 apg) all excelling in helping the Bulldogs reach the lofty heights they have this season. Gonzaga is shooting 51.3 percent from the floor, which includes a 38 percent showing from beyond the arc, while its foes check in at 39.8 percent overall and 33.3 percent from downtown. The Zags also own positive margins in both rebounding (+7.5) and turnovers (+2.7). Harris was high man for Gonzaga in the narrow win at San Diego last weekend, as he hit 6-of-12 shots from the floor and 5-of-6 at the charity stripe to reach 18 points. He pulled down eight rebounds as well, joining Olynyk for the team-lead in that department. Olynyk tallied 15 points, and Gary Bell, Jr. chipped in 13 for the Bulldogs, who shot 43.9 percent from the field while utilizing an 11-5 edge in points from the foul line along with taking full advantage of 15 Torero turnovers.
Gonzaga is primed to run the table in the WCC, so long as it doesn't get too full of itself and take lesser teams for granted. The Waves are sure to play hard, but they simply lack the talent and depth needed to pull off the upset here.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Gonzaga 75, Pepperdine 63

Rivera: "We're benching you because we know Derek Anderson isn't good, and know that you are better than him, but I don't believe our offensive coordinator can get his head out of his ass, so it's not your fault, but we are starting Derek Anderson."
Cam: "But coach, why wouldn't you just either work with your OC on a different gameplan, or just get rid of him altogether? "
Rivera: But we're protecting you for your own good...ummmm....(trails off)
JR: "well guys, i fired rivera because of that petition that more than 75 people signed saying i should.

Yes, you read that right, there is ale in the cupcakes and Bailey's in the frosting! I guess it's safe to call these grown-up cupcakes, and boy are they good!!
St. Patrick's Day inspired me to create this skinny adult treat. Pinterest can be such a time suck, but it also sparks creativity. After seeing this chocolate stout cake on Ambrosia Baking, a light bulb lit up in my head. I could mess around with my last chocolate cake recipes and use beer in the mix. I found the Double Chocolate Stout in Trader Joe's, but Guinness would work too.
As for the frosting, I knew I wanted to use Bailey's, but I couldn't imagine just how good they would be when combined.
Folks, this was a big success, so if you have a St Patrick's Day party to go to I highly recommend bringing these. You can double the recipe for more.
Chocolate Stout Cupcakes with Baileys Cream Cheese Frosting
Servings: 12 • Serving Size: 1 cupcake w frosting • Old Points: 4 pts • Points+: 5 pts
Calories: 188.9 • Fat: 6.3 g • Protein: 3.3 g • Carb: 31.1 g • Fiber: 1.5 g • Sugar: 19.4 g
Sodium: 214.3 mg (without salt)
For the Bailey's frosting:
- 5.5 oz 1/3 less fat Philly Cream Cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 4 tsp Bailey's Irish Cream
- 3/4 cup + 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 cup flour
- 7 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup stout
- 4 oz unsweetened apple sauce
- 1/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1/4 cup reduced fat sour cream
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 1/2 tbsp canola oil
- cooking spray
Combine all the frosting ingredients in a medium bowl and mix until smooth with an electric mixer. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Preheat oven to 350°. Line a cupcake tin with 12 liners and lightly spray liners with oil (to prevent sticking).
In a large bowl sift together all the dry ingredients; sugar, flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking soda.
In a medium bowl combine the wet ingredients (egg through canola oil) and beat until smooth.
With a mixer, slowly add the sifted flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Pour into cupcake liners and bake 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely before frosting.

text: 154 min | NR An extraordinary look at the structure of life in the 20th century, the UP Series is, according to critic Roger Ebert, "an inspired, almost noble use of the film medium [which] penetrates to the central mystery of life." Starting in 1964 with SEVEN UP, the original concept of the UP series was to interview 14 children from diverse backgrounds, asking them about their lives and their dreams for the future. Every seven years, renowned director Michael Apted, a researcher for Seven Up, has been back to talk to them, examining the progression of their lives. As they now turn 56 more surprising developments are revealed.

Very good job.
I just wondering if there is a real need in radeonhd? Seriously.. ;-)
Phoronix: R500-700 TV-Out Coming To X.Org Radeon Driver
David Airlie has shared that he's been working on the TV-Out support for the xf86-video-ati driver on the newer card generations. Last year there was Radeon TV-Out support for the older ATI graphics cards, but David Airlie now has it working on the R500/600 series and is about ready with the R700 series support. This TV-Out support is being powered by the AtomBIOS...
Very good job.
I just wondering if there is a real need in radeonhd? Seriously.. ;-)
interesting news!
Great! I just tried hooking up my old tv to my pc a few weeks ago and was dissapointed to find out tv-out was not supported yet.
Does Arlie need testing with IGPs 690G (GIGABYTE GA-MA69GM-S2H -- component out) and 790GX (another gigabyte mobo)?
I think it would be useful to have a comparison table of available ATI drivers (3 or 4 ?) and its main features (10 to 15 ?). Thus we could get a better understanding of this kind of news since we would be more in context.
Of course, a comparison table of NVIDIA drivers and its features would be also useful on news about them.
I write this thought here because, after visiting this site for the last year, I really think that you, Phoronix staff, are perfect candidates to do that.
I hope you like the idea.

Play Seating
Teachers will appreciate the high safety standards and easy maintenance of Hertz Furniture's play seating collection. What are the best alternative seating options for the classroom? Kids couches and childrens sofas are an excellent alternative to classic school chairs, offering vibrant colors and cushy padding.
How can I help little ones feel at home in a preschool classroom?
Little ones need comfy places to sit whether they are working on projects, reading quietly to themselves or playing together in preschool learning centers. With our wide variety of styles and models, you can find some excellent floor cushions and kids couches for any part of the classroom. With lots of places to sit and many enticing options, children will be excited to come into class and enjoy the appropriately-sized furniture.
Children's Factory has a number of unique designs that will encourage young learners to explore and be creative. Versatile cube chairs will fit just about anywhere in the room. Their innovative design lets little ones decide just what they would like to use them for. These vibrant chairs can be stacked, sat on or used as a work surface. A lightweight design enables children to take initiative and move them around independently.
How can you keep preschoolers comfortable during circle time?
Although many early-childhood classrooms use rugs for circle time, carpets might not provide adequate padding for little ones. In order to make sure that everyone is comfortable sitting on the floor, supply your classroom with some soft play cushions. Smaller cushions are perfect for creative games and other floor activities while large fun animal shapes offer a great place to rest or hang out.
Kids couches and kids bean bag chairs will fit well in a reading corner or an imaginative play center. Little ones can feel like grownups as they sit down and dive into a great book, or create a pretend living room or office waiting room setup. For an even more realistic arrangement, consider adding some preschool end tables and coffee tables. With so many fun and realistic pieces, little ones will feel free to let their imaginations soar. Imaginative play and reading are critically important for your young students. Early literacy development can impact little ones for the rest of their lives. Having an inviting reading corner and celebrating events like Read Across America Day are just a few of the many great ways in which we can encourage students to be lifelong readers.
Beanbag chairs are cozy to sit on no matter how old you are. They mold to fit each person perfectly, so everyone can feel at home. This comfy preschool furniture can fit just about anywhere in a daycare classroom or even in a children's library.
What size chairs do you need in a preschool?
Play seating that is just the right size for the little ones in your care is guaranteed to enhance any learning space. Toddler chairs, sofas and cushions promote proper posture which helps children focus longer and learn correct ways to sit, and get up. When children need to relax throughout the day, or just take a little break to calm down, preschool chairs and beanbag chairs provide a great place to have some alone time. They can also be arranged in clusters to encourage social interaction among your little ones.
At Hertz Furniture, we know that young children deserve to be treated to proper seating in the daycare and preschool classroom. Our wide selection of preschool chairs, toddler sofas, kids loungers and floor cushions ensures that all of your young students can enjoy appropriately-sized seating. Great toddler chairs will add color, fun and new activities to any learning space.

Region 1
Region 1 is the northwest/northcentral one-fourth of Kansas including 27 counties. This region is diverse from east to west with some of the largest and best wildlife areas in the state. With eight federal reservoirs and associated wildlife areas to the natural salt marshes at Jamestown, this mostly rural part of Kansas is a great place for hunters, anglers and wildife enthusiasts. The mosaiic of prairie, woodland corridors and farmland makes Region 1 ideal for pheasants, deer, and Rio Grande Turkeys.
Good opportunities for success on these wildlife areas exist for waterfowl, archery deer and fall turkey hunting. Deer, and pheasant populations are great but have considerable pressure early in the seasons. The most oustanding opportunites are present for the youth seasons for deer, waterfowl, upland and turkeys. Unfortunately not enough mentors are taking the time to get youth out in these uncrowded seasons with great opportunity for harvest. Region1 also hosts the majority of the Special Hunt Draw program that enables a few hunters to take advantage of quality opportunites on an equal basis without paying high lease or hunt fees. Many of these hunts are targeted for Mentor/Novice hunts.

Don't ever remember a queue in the shop before.
Probably thought it was the new benefits office or that they were giving out free butter!
Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are good is like
expecting the bull not to charge because you are a vegetarian.

Having spoken to Ravensport, can I advise supporters that player-fit shirts will now be 'order only'.
The supporters' edition (with the button collar) will continue to be available in the shop.
You can order the player-fit shirts and all of the other stuff at www.ravensport.com or by calling 01924 455551.
All player-fit shirts include a free name and number, if requested (squad number format optional!!)
A full e-release to this effect along with details about how much money we made will go out after Christmas.
Thanks again to everyone who came down, and apologies to those who had to queue up. Hope you got what you came for in the end!
Merry Christmas - I'm off to lie down for a bit!

I doubt that. Those buggers are so tight half the turnstiles are shut and you end up queuing for ages....check out this Boxing Day. I'll guarantee it will be the same this year.....Piggys mate- it was a longer queue than has ever been seen at a Batley turnstile.
