Los Angeles Galaxy 2015 News and Updates
4/6/15 - Still looking for their first road win of the season, L.A. Galaxy found themselves on the short end of things in a 2-0 loss to Vancouver at B.C. Place Stadium in the western Canada city. The Galaxy were unable to create many scoring opportunities until sub Edson Buddle came on in the second half, being completely without a shot on frame in the first half of play.
3/30/15 - On a chilly night in the nation's capital, the defending MLS Cup holders, Los Angeles Galaxy, were done in by a late defensive lapse leading to a second-half stoppage time goal, falling 1-0 to D.C. United over the weekend. The Galaxy had a few opportunities, including a shot off the post by Stefan Ishizaki, but were unable to capitalize.

3/23/15 - With three games under their belt, the L.A. Galaxy have taken five points, with a pair of draws coming after their season opening win. The Galaxy's latest outing was a 1-1 draw with Houston, who returned to the Western Conference this season after several years in the East. Robbie Keane was once again the man in the spotlight for the Galaxy; the Irishman staked the team to an early lead – and ultimately its lone tally – in the third minute. Jaime Penedo finally started in goal for the Galaxy and conceded just one score to the Dynamo.
3/9/15 - The defending MLS Cup holders, the L.A. Galaxy, kicked off the 2015 Major League Soccer regular season in style last week. Goals by Jose Villarreal and stalwart Robbie Keane being the only tallies in a 2-0 home shutout over Chicago, while the clean sheet went to surprise starter Brian Rowe, who filled in admirably for Jaime Penedo, who was held out by boss Bruce Arena due to nagging minor injuries.
2014 Season
12/8/14 - In a game that was followed even in soccer-mad Britain, the L.A. Galaxy claimed their historic fifth MLS Cup with a 2-1 victory after extra time over New England. The victory was sealed in the 111th minute by Ireland international striker Robbie Keane, who earlier in the week had been named MLS's Most Valuable Player.
12/5/14 - 90 minutes away from history. That's where league MVP Robbie Keane, the departing Landon Donovan, and the rest of the Los Angeles Galaxy find themselves going into Sunday's MLS Cup final against New England. Should the Galaxy prevail, it would be their fifth league title since its founding in 1996, and could secure yet another berth in the CONCACAF Champions League.
12/1/14 - The Hollywood story continues for Landon Donovan and the L.A. Galaxy, as the Galaxy collected a road goal in the second leg at Seattle's CenturyLink Field to advance to the MLS Cup Final. The Galaxy will face a familiar Final foe in New England; the two sides faced off in the 2005 and 2007 Finals, with L.A. winning both.
11/25/14 - It's 90 minutes down, and 90 minutes to go for the L.A. Galaxy, who notched a 1-0 win over Seattle this past weekend in the first leg of a two-game aggregate goals series in the Western Conference Championship. The Galaxy goal was scored by Marcelo Sarvas, while the defense has yet to allow a goal in the postseason – 270 minutes and counting.
11/17/14 - This weekend, the battle begins, when the L.A. Galaxy take on Seattle with a berth in the MLS Cup final at stake in the two-game series. This isn't the first time the Galaxy and Sounders have met in a conference final; the two teams did so in 2012, with the Galaxy advancing on a 4-2 aggregate.
11/10/14 - After a scoreless draw on the road in Utah, the Los Angeles Galaxy – and especially the retiring Landon Donovan – stamped their ticket to MLS's Western Conference finals with an emphatic 5-0 second-leg victory over Real Salt Lake. Donovan extended his league postseason scoring mark with a hat trick, while also assisting Robbie Keane on another goal, while Marcelo Sarvas also scored for the victors.
11/3/14 - In a two-leg playoff series, the Los Angeles Galaxy – and especially goalkeeper Jaime Penedo – earned a critical clean sheet over the weekend, shutting out Real Salt Lake in Utah. The return leg this week will decide who moves on to the Western Conference finals against either Seattle or Dallas.
10/27/14 - It wasn't the kind of ending you want to finish a season. The Los Angeles Galaxy came up short in the final game of the season against Seattle, losing 2-0 to Sounders F.C. to miss out on the top overall seed in the upcoming MLS Cup playoffs, as well as the MLS Supporters' Shield.
10/23/14 - They still have a shot at the Supporters' Shield, given to the team with the most points, and top seed in the Western Conference. But in order to get it, the Los Angeles Galaxy's road to victory heads through Seattle, who are tied on points with the Galaxy.
9/29/14 - It was a historic night for the Los Angeles Galaxy at Red Bull Arena in suburban New Jersey last weekend, as Landon Donovan – retiring at the end of the season – broke the Major League Soccer career record for assists as part of a 4-0 thrashing of the New York Red Bulls. Donovan figured in all four of L.A.'s goals, with a goal and three assists for the night; his goal came five minutes into the second half, after winning the ball away from New York's Chris Duvall for an easy score. Robbie Keane scored twice off feeds from Donovan, scoring once in each half, while Gyasi Zardes contributed the other Galaxy goal. This weekend the Galaxy, who remain level with Seattle in the race for the Supporters' Shield, play host to Toronto F.C.
9/22/14 - With their 2-1 win this past weekend over visiting F.C. Dallas, the Los Angeles Galaxy not only punched their ticket to the Major League Soccer playoffs, they also drew level with Western Conference rival Seattle in the race for the MLS Supporters' Shield, given to the team with the most points (three for a win, one for a draw) at the end of the regular season, regardless of conference. Dallas opened the scoring in the 62nd minute, but Robbie Keane pulled the Galaxy even just eight minutes on; then it was substitute Alan Gordon's turn, as he headed home a cross from Keane for the game winner. The goal was Gordon's fourth for the galaxy this year after coming back in a midseason trade with San Jose. The Galaxy welcome the New York Red Bulls to StubHub Center this weekend; the Red Bulls will be just two days removed from a visit to El Salvador for the CONCACAF Champions League.
9/15/14 - The unbeaten string now stands at seven games for the Los Angeles Galaxy, who had to settle for a 1-1 draw against their northern California rivals from San Jose this past weekend. The Galaxy have 51 points through 28 games, three points behind Seattle (who has a game in hand) for the MLS Supporters' Shield, given to the team who has the most points at the end of the season – which is just a few games away now. The Galaxy got their goal from Omar Gonzalez, who headed home a corner kick from Stefan Ishizaki in the 28th minute; the Galaxy should have doubled their lead just a few minutes later, however Robbie Keane was unable to convert a penalty kick awarded when a San Jose defender was whistled for a hand ball in the area. Unfortunately the Galaxy were unable to maintain the whitewash, as an in-form Chris Wondolowski found the back of the net in the 66th minute for the equalizer. The Galaxy will host F.C. Dallas, currently in fourth place in the Western Conference, this weekend.
9/8/14 - Six to nothing. That was the final result of the Los Angeles Galaxy's match with hapless Colorado last weekend, beginning with a dubious record set by the Rapids. Just 33 seconds into the match, the Rapids goalkeeper was shown a straight red card for grabbing the ankles of recent (re-)acquisition Alan Gordon in the penalty area close to the goal; the play also earned the Galaxy the first of two spot kicks, both converted by Landon Donovan. Donovan also collected a pair of assists, one each on goals by Gyasi Zardes and Baggio Husidic, each of whom joined Donovan with a brace. The schedule coming up for the Galaxy will get a little busy this week, with a midweek trip to Montreal coming before a weekend contest in the California Clasico against San Jose this weekend.
9/3/14 - In what has been called "the final SuperClasico" between the Los Angeles Galaxy and ground-mates C.D. Chivas USA – who are expected to be sold and rebranded after the season – the Galaxy placed an emphatic stamp on the meeting, with a 3-0 victory over the weekend. All totaled, the Galaxy only lost four times to the Goats over the course of 10 seasons, and losing the overall derby rivalry just once, in 2007. Gyasi Zardes scored twice for the Galaxy, and Irish international Robbie Keane added a further insurance goal. Zardes started the scoring in the 41st minute, then in the second half at the 71st minute; Keane sending his home in the 65th minute. The Galaxy will next face Colorado, again at the StubHub Center in Carson, Calif.
8/25/14 - Bouncing back from a shockingly bad loss to Columbus the weekend before, the Los Angeles Galaxy got a pair of wins last week, first on the road against Colorado, 4-3, followed by a weekend victory at home over Vancouver. Against Colorado, the Galaxy dug an early hole, but goals from Robbie Keane, Omar Gonzalez, the recently reacquired Alan Gordon, and Landon Donovan to send the Rapids to their fifth straight loss. Against the Whitecaps, the Galaxy got their first goal from Donovan just five minutes in, and a further score from Marcelo Sarvas 27 minutes later, to give the Galaxy a solid 2-1 win, to move the Galaxy just two points back of West rivals Real Salt Lake and F.C. Dallas. The Galaxy wrap up their August schedule this weekend, with a Sunday SuperClasico clash with ground-mates C.D. Chivas USA.
8/19/14 - The game started simply enough, with the host Columbus Crew honoring Los Angeles Galaxy and U.S. national team stalwart Landon Donovan, who is retiring from pro soccer at the end of the season, for his service to the game. After that? The Galaxy found themselves on the short end of a track meet, as the hosts roared to a 4-1 victory over the visiting Galaxy. The lone tally for the Galaxy came shortly after the beginning of the second half, when midfielder Dan Gargan sent a perfectly placed cross into the middle of the pitch, where Gyasi Zardes executed a slide volley of the cross into the back of the net. Otherwise it was a Massive effort all around for the Crew, who had their highest goal-scoring tally of the season. The Galaxy hope to bounce back from the defeat with a mid-week visit to Colorado, which is followed by a home contest against Vancouver this weekend.
8/11/14 - Though on the surface, the contest appeared to be between two sides heading in opposite directions, the Los Angeles Galaxy, riding high recently with multiple big wins, could manage just a 2-2 draw with their northern rivals from San Jose, who were visiting the StubHub Center this past weekend. The match also was the start of Galaxy superstar Landon Donovan's farewell to MLS tour; but in a SoCal-NorCal derby match, these things go out the window. The Galaxy were led once again by Gyasi Zardes, who scored his ninth goal of the season in the first half to give L.A. their first equalizer, while defender Omar Gonzalez came up from his back line to nod home a corner kick shortly after the start of the second half. While the Galaxy dominated possession, though, San Jose were able to convert two shots in the first half into scores. This weekend, the Galaxy head to the Buckeye State for their next match, a contest against Columbus.
8/4/14 - Another game, another three goals, another win. Robbie Keane had a brace (two goals) and Gyasi Zardes found the back of the net again as well, as the Los Angeles Galaxy defeated visiting Portland, 3-1 this past weekend. The Galaxy, who have lost just once since a mid-May loss to Houston, notched just their first win over Portland coach Caleb Porter, who is set to lead the MLS All-Stars against a very strong Bayern Munich side in the midweek classic. Zardes nodded home a header during stoppage time in the first half for L.A.'s first goal, after Portland opened the scoring. It wouldn't be until the 73rd minute, though, that Keane would find the back of the net for the go-ahead tally, a header off a chip from Landon Donovan. Keane's second goal of the game would be from the penalty spot, awarded in the 85th minute when a Portland defender tripped the Galaxy's Juninho at the top of the area. San Jose come calling this weekend as the Galaxy's next opponent, in a continuation of the California Clasico rivalry.
7/29/14 - The Los Angeles Galaxy went into CenturyLink Field in Seattle this past weekend, and laid a rare smackdown on the Western Conference's leaders, dropping three goals on Sounders F.C. in the first half en route to a 3-0 victory. Gyasi Zardes opened the offensive onslaught for the Galaxy, taking a perfect pass laid back from Landon Donovan and rifling his shot home in the eighth minute. Just 10 minutes later, Donovan would notch his own tally, putting back a rebound off Sounders goalkeeper Stefan Frei. Stefan Ishizaki rounded out the Galaxy scoring, putting his shot away near halftime. In a testy moment, during first-half stoppage time, Galaxy defender Omar Gonzalez saw himself assessed a yellow card after a shoving match with former U.S. national teammate DeAndre Yedlin, which also saw the involvement of yet another national-teamer, Sounders forward Clint Dempsey, before cooler heads prevailed. The Galaxy host Portland this weekend, before next week's MLS All-Star Game against Bayern Munich.
7/21/14 - After unloading on visiting New England 5-1 in a midweek game last week, the Los Angeles Galaxy dropped a tough 2-1 decision to Sporting Kansas City. Still, the Galaxy sit tied for fourth place with Colorado and Vancouver, with two games in hand on the Rapids and Whitecaps. In the New England goal-fest, much of the scoring was done by Robbie Keane, who scored a brace and notched a pair of assists, both leading to Gyasi Zardes goals; Stefan Ishizaki being responsible for the Galaxy's fifth goal, the most in one game since October of 2013. However, a few days later Sporting KC sent the Galaxy to their first outright loss since May, as only Keane could find the back of the net for L.A., and that only after SKC had collected their two tallies. The Galaxy head to the Rose Bowl this week to take on English power Manchester United in a friendly; their next league contest will see them head to Seattle on the 28th.
7/14/14 - The Los Angeles Galaxy started a stretch of three games in eight days, with a 1-0 win over Real Salt Lake at home in Carson, Calif. The Galaxy moved to within a point of fifth-place Vancouver with the win, in a tightly bunched Western Conference where five points separates second place RSL from seventh place Chivas USA. The lone goal of the game was notched by Gyasi Zardes, who took a feed from Marcelo Sarvas in the 20th minute to score his fifth goal in his last six apparances for the Galaxy first team. U.S. national team defender Omar Gonzalez was unavailable to play due to an ankle injury suffered during the U.S.'s heartbreaking 2-1 loss to Belgium in the World Cup. The next of the Galaxy's games is another home contest in which New England come for a visit, followed by a trip to the heartland to take on Sporting Kansas City in suburban Kansas.
7/8/14 - The Los Angeles Galaxy extended their unbeaten streak to six games this past weekend, when a Portland own goal in the 86th minute gave LA a 2-2 draw at the StubHub Center in Carson, Calif. Marcelo Sarvas opened the scoring in the 65th minute, taking a short pass from Landon Donovan just outside the penalty area, then beating three Portland defenders and a screened goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts with a far post shot. Portland would score twice in a matter of minutes, first by Diego Valeri, then by Jorge Villafana, before the home side would receive the gifted own goal, when a retreating Timbers defender accidentally redirected the ball into his own net. The Galaxy are tied for sixth with the Timbers, both teams receiving one point from the draw; and just a single point behind Vancouver for fifth place. Next up for Los Angeles is a home match with Eastern contender New England.
7/1/14 - With league play starting again after the conclusion of the World Cup's group stage, the Los Angeles Galaxy got off to a good start, recording a 1-0 win over San Jose in a game held at Stanford Stadium in Palo Alto, Calif. The affair was a typically loce-played California Clasico affair, with both teams missing on opportunities in the first half. The Galaxy got the break they needed in the second half, shortly after the 60-minute mark, when Gyasi Zardes sent home a pass from Marcelo Sarvas that found Zardes near the 12-yard penalty spot. The Galaxy are unbeaten (three wins and a pair of draws) in their last five league contests, and have moved into a sixth place tie with Portland in the Western Conference table, just a pair of points behind Vancouver. Portland, incidentally, is the next opponent for the Galaxy, this Independence Day at the StubHub Center.
6/9/14 - In their last game before the World Cup break, the Los Angeles Galaxy could manage just a draw with their ground-mates Chivas USA, 1-1 last weekend in the second SuperClasico at StubHub Center. Despite allowing a goal in the 20th minute, Gyasi Zardes bring the Galaxy level in the 35th minute, and from that point, the Galaxy tried mightily but failed to break down the Goats' defense. The draw extends the Galaxy's 2014 unbeaten streak to four games, and the string against Chivas USA to seven consecutive games, going back to the 2012 season. Though Chivas USA scored first, the Galaxy dominated possession – some 65.5 percent – but could not convert their late chances into tallies. The Galaxy are now off until a visit to USL PRO side Arizona United in the U.S. Open Cup on the 18th; their next MLS match is on June 28 at San Jose.
6/3/14 - Landon Donovan does it again. Left off the final U.S. national team 23-man roster for the World Cup, Donovan scored his third goal in two games in the second half, allowing the Los Angeles Galaxy to claim a key point against the Chicago Fire, 1-1. Donovan scored on a cross from defender Robbie Rogers, who gained possession of the ball deep in the Galaxy's defensive end of the pitch and kept it deep into the Chicago end. The 74th minute goal was in answer to a 66th minute penalty kick awarded to the Fire when Galaxy midfielder Juninho brought down forward Quincy Amarikwa; although it appeared that the foul occurred outside the penalty area, the PK was awarded. The Galaxy take on C.D. Chivas USA this weekend in their final game before the start of the World Cup; the squad will be off until June 28th.
5/27/14 - Even though he is still stinging somewhat from being left off the final 23-man World Cup roster of the U.S. men's national team, the longtime face of the Los Angeles Galaxy finally claimed one of the top career records in Major League Soccer: that of most goals scored in a career. Donovan bagged a brace – two goals, both in the second half – as part of a 4-1 victory over the visiting Philadelphia Union. Donovan's first tally came in the 49th minute, which moved him past Jeff Cunningham (who left MLS after the 2011 campaign). Donovan worked a sequence with Robbie Keane, who was credited with the assist, then would score a second time, in the 81st minute, which put him a goal clear of Cunningham. The Galaxy have now won two in a row since losing to Houston in the middle of May, and head to Chicago to start the month of June.
5/19/14 - Last place. Bottom of the table. Unfamiliar territory. With their winless string now stretching through four games, the Los Angeles Galaxy find themselves at a record of two wins, three draws and three losses, and just nine points from eight games played, a point behind San Jose, Portland, and (yes) Chivas USA. The Galaxy have managed a single goal scored in the month of May, that being the stoppage-time equalizer by Robbie Keane against Portland. Last weekend it was Houston who defeated the Galaxy, 1-0, on a second half throw-in misplayed by Galaxy goalkeeper Jaime Penedo, which was taken advantage of by the Dynamo. The Galaxy have one more chance at a win this month when Philadelphia Union come to the StubHub Center on June 25, a Sunday match.
5/14/14 - The Los Angeles Galaxy have done themselves no favors the past couple of weekends in May. After falling 1-0 on May 3 when they traveled to Colorado, the Galaxy got a point a weekend later in a 1-1 draw with Portland on Mother's Day, in which neither team could find the back of the nets until stoppage time very late in the second half. The Galaxy thought they had a game-winner when Robbie Keane headed one home in the 92nd minute of play, only to have the Timbers' Diego Valeri strike just as the match ended. The Galaxy took 21 shots to Portland's 10, though L.A. only had a 5-4 shots-on-goal advantage. Landon Donovan is still looking for his 136th goal, which would place him at the top of the MLS all-time goal-scorers' table, but it appears that won't happen until after he returns from the World Cup finals in Brazil. The Galaxy's next game is another road match, this time in Houston, this coming weekend.
5/6/14 - Taking a 1-0 loss away to the Colorado Rapids, the Los Angeles Galaxy found themselves a bit out of sorts after midfielder Marcelo Sarvas went down during midweek training with a sprained medial collateral ligament; the injury will keep Sarvas out of training for at least two months, according to Galaxy officials. The Galaxy struggled to find some form to cover Sarvas's absence on the pitch, but were unable to find an answer; with forward Robbie Keane saying in an interview, "We just looked kind of lackadaisical." The loss was just the Galaxy's second failure to secure a point in league play this season; because of their remaining appearance in CONCACAF Champions League at the beginning of the season, the Galaxy have played just six games so far to avoid schedule congestion – leaving them with three games in hand on most of the Western Conference, including the current top five in points. The next opponent for the Galaxy will be Portland, who is one of the more disappointing squads of this young season.
4/28/14 - Idle this past weekend, the Los Angeles Galaxy will head to Colorado this coming weekend to take on the Rapids, on May 3 at Dick's Sporting Goods Park. As well, at least two more games have been added to the schedule – an international friendly match against traditional English Premier League power Manchester United, at the historic Rose Bowl on July 23; and their opening match in the 101st edition of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, which will be played in the to-be-determined date range of June 10-18. The Galaxy have won a pair of Open Cups in their history, the first coming in 2001, the other as part of a domestic cup double (with MLS Cup) in 2005. (Interestingly enough, both USOC victories were followed up the next year by second-place finishes.) More recent results have seen the Galaxy fail to get past Carolina RailHawks of the second-division North American Soccer League the last two tournaments, which are open to all U.S. Soccer Federation affiliated clubs in the country, across every level of the pyramid from amateur to MLS.
4/21/14 - Even though they've only lost once in five matches, the Los Angeles Galaxy find themselves in sixth place in Major League Soccer's Western Conference, a point behind Vancouver and a full eight points in arrears of conference leader F.C. Dallas. Irish international Robbie Keane is having a good season, currently with four goals scored on the young season, two behind U.S. international Clint Dempsey, and C.D. Chivas USA's Erick Torres, and tied with four other players. The Galaxy most recently drew 2-2 with Whitecaps F.C., at B.C. Place in Vancouver; Keane notched his fourth, while teammate Stefan Ishizaki opened the Galaxy scoring. Unfortunately the Los Angeles defense could not hold the lead given to them by the Irishman, allowing the Whitecaps to draw level in the 86th minute. The Galaxy are off until May 3, when they travel to Colorado to take on the Rapids.
It's been seven years since the Los Angeles Galaxy made one of the largest splashes by an American side on the international footballing pond, since the old New York Cosmos landing Pele in the 1970s, with their signing of David Beckham. Becks has moved on, but his legacy remains – the Galaxy are now the powers of MLS, having won back to back MLS Cups in 2011-12, and visiting the final three times in four years. Coach Bruce Arena still has a powerful squad, led by the strike duo of American Landon Donovan and Irishman Robbie Keane; Brazilian midfielder Juninho; and defender Omar Gonzalez, who will also likely see time at the World Cup in Brazil for the U.S. The Galaxy will be hitting the ground running in 2014 as well, with an interesting CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal draw against the Xolos of Club Tijuana.
2013 Season
10/22/13 - The Galaxy are returning to the
MLS Cup Playoffs
for a fifth consecutive year and currently sit in third place in the West with one game left in the regular season. Although LA is no longer in contention for the Supporters' Shield, the Galaxy will play in their fifteenth postseason, an MLS record. Another upside, Landon Donovan and Omar Gonzalez are back in the lineup after dealing with injuries.
6/1/13 - The Home Depot Center was renamed the
StubHub Center
2/28/13 - David Beckham may be gone, but the Los Angeles Galaxy have high hopes, as they aim for a yet another Major League Soccer first in 2013 — becoming the first MLS side to three-peat. Last year saw the Galaxy become just the third squad, after
D.C. United
(1996-97) and
Houston Dynamo
(2006-07), to win back-to-back championships. Among the returnees are Ireland international Robbie Keane, and U.S. international Landon Donovan, both of whom found the back of the net in significant quantities (16 goals for Keane, nine for Donovan), as well as forward Mike Magee; Brazilian midfielder Juninho, and defenders Omar Gonzalez and Sean Franklin. Stepping in as goalkeeper is Italian Carlo Cudicini, best known as one of the top keepers in the Barclays Premier League while with Chelsea F.C. Not only have the Galaxy kept the
MLS Cup
, they also qualified for another year of international club competition, their fourth consecutive in CONCACAF Champions League facing the top club teams in North and Central America and the Caribbean. Can Bruce Arena's club score another MLS Cup trophy? Can they become the first MLS side to win CONCACAF honors since an earlier Galaxy squad claimed the CONCACAF Champions Cup in 2000? Supporters at the Home Depot Center are certainly hoping so!
Despite success in the recent years, LA Galaxy tickets are fifth cheapest in MLS. The average Galaxy ticket is $43 at the Home Depot Center, a field the team shares with rival
Chivas USA
. When the two crosstown rivals meet in the LA Derby on March 17, cheap Galaxy tickets are available for just $8. The get-in price for the October 6 matchup is $18. The LA Derby is the only intra-city rivalry in the League. The LA Galaxy schedule also includes two matchups against chief rival the
San Jose Earthquakes
(8/31, 10/20). The average ticket to watch the California Clásico is $47.
2012 MLS Cup tickets at the Home Depot Center averaged $215. After winning the MLS Cup Final, the LA Galaxy joined DC United as American soccer's most decorated professional clubs.

Winter weather will be moving into the area today and is expected to dump up to 4 inches of snow on parts of Calhoun County.
An upper-level low pressure system is moving across the Deep South. As temperatures across the state drop, much of the rain will quickly turn into snow as that low pressure system tracks along the I-20 corridor in the state.
Trained National Weather Service Storm Spotter Jarrett Pence says that counties west of Interstate 65 can expect the rain to develop into snow after noon on Thursday and that snowfall should continue until around 7:00 this evening. The heaviest snowfall in the state is expected to be in east-central Alabama, including the Anniston/Oxford area, and Pence warns that a slushy mix should be expected on bridges and overpasses in the area.
The National Weather Service gives Calhoun County a Hazardous Weather Outlook, with a Winter Weather Advisory until 7 p.m. and a Wind Advisory until 8 p.m.

After another wild win last night, the Nats are back at U.S. Cellular Field today.
CHICAGO — It's been a whirlwind 48 hours in NatsTown, and it's not about to start slowing down now. Davey Johnson will be formally named as the Nationals' new manager sometime today, but he won't actually manage yet. He's expected to be at U.S. Cellular Field for the rest of the weekend to observe his new club, then take over Monday night in Anaheim.
So John McLaren is once again at the helm this afternoon, and he's put together a lineup that includes Ryan Zimmerman as DH, Jerry Hairston at third base and Brian Bixler (one of last night's heroes) in left field. Tom Gorzelanny gets the start against fellow lefty John Danks.
Remember, today's game is on Fox, so no MASN coverage before, during or after the game. Check back here for all of your updates, and check out CSN later for video…

Tho his #s this season are against it, here's hoping Gorzy can go deep into the game and give the bullpen some rest after last night.
- Grandstander - Jun 25, 2011 at 5:29 PM
Well, McLaren definitely follows Riggleman's insistence on R/L matchups. But Hairston's been hot and Bixler had his career game last night, so this makes sense to me. My only question is why not put Bixler at the hot corner and Hairston in LF? Aren't those their more natural positions? Or better yet keep Zimmerman at 3rd and let Bixler DH. Seems kind of weird to take your gold glove 3rd baseman out of the game.
- Unkyd - Jun 25, 2011 at 5:36 PM
These starters will go at least 7 innings, regardless of the score, so hold on to your rally caps, there could be numbers, if one or both of them isn't "on"GYFNG!!!!!
- FS - Jun 25, 2011 at 5:39 PM
Might be resting Zimmerman. He has not exactly looked gold glove since return, has he? I am just guessing.Bixler is rewarded rightfully. We won last night, thanks to him. Hoping Pudge can get a better game out of Gorzo and win us some more ballgames.

Last 4 starts for Gorzelanny: 1-3 7.65 ERA. 20 IP, 34(!) hits, but a pretty good 19/8 K/BB rate.Time for him to keep some runs off the board.Go Gorzo!

Could have made a roster move seeing as Storen will miss a game or two and Stairs is not even sniffing the field in AL parks….Wake Up Rizzo….stop patting yourself on the back for braking a marginal manager….this team needs a pitcher now.
- NatsLady - Jun 25, 2011 at 6:22 PM
Can we get our 9 runs in the first inning? A blowout would be nice and relaxing. RZimm not up to par, a rest from fielding is a good idea, and letting him DH should help him get his hitting eye back. Bixler deserves to start, clearly. The man is pure hustle. Guess you can't have two people at 3B (Hairston and Bixler). Maybe they flipped a coin. This is only Gorzy's 2nd start after coming off the DL, so I assume McCatty will not let him be overworked. Temp is 77 in Chi right not, so not intolerably hot or cool. Nice day for a ballgame. GO NATS!

WhyNat:Back in 1997 Doris Kearns Goodwin wrote "Wait Till Next Year," a lovely memoir of growing up as a Brooklyn Dodgers fan.It's a breezy 257 pages and it's as much an evocation of 1950s Brooklyn and of the game's inheritance — passed here from father to daughter — as it is the story of Jackie, Pee Wee, Gil and the Duke.She recalls how fans' loyalties were sharply divided among the Dodgers, Giants and Yanks and "corner stores were the scenes of fierce and affectionate rivalries."I guarantee your group would enjoy it.

Drew Storen's grandmother passed away yesterday. I am assuming he knew before he pitched last night, and it could be his concentration wasn't 100%, and the 3 run homer was a result. Who am I to guess.However, I know he will not be with the team tomorrow. Seems that I would go ahead and place him on bereavement list till tomorrow, and bring up someone for two days in the bullpen. Just a thought.Also read Ryan is not playing third today as McClaren said he has been working real hard on his throws after the operation, and could use the day off in the field. Needless to say a win today and we win another series.

While the Goodwin book is my pick for the general audience, here are some other enjoyable reads for the baseball diehards.Posnanski, mentioned by Wally above, wrote a delightful book on the great 1975 Reds, entitled "The Machine."It's filled with wonderful stories. Joe Morgan tells of how how he once booted a ball and dreaded the reaction by the team's three other greats. He walked into a silent locker room — and found his glove in a trash can.Another good read is "The Long Ball" Tom Adelman's take on baseball's 1975 season, culminating in the memorable Sox-Reds Series.Aside from the many fine biographies, there's "Only the Ball Was White," Robert Peterson's excellent study of Negro League baseball.

Last night Sox crew made it worth paying for the Nats radio crew today.

Back on the book front, can't believe no one has mentioned my favorite – Men at Work by George Will.

Not to belabor the point, but this has to be the worst broadcast of a professional sporting event I've ever seen. The announcers are talking about everything BUT the game. Is someone even calling the play-by-play? But what's most annoying is whomever is directing this thing must have ADD. Weird sudden cuts into the dugout, almost no replays, they keep putting up the divisional standings for seemingly no reason at all.Yikes.

Is it my imagination or has rizzo turned into an egomaniac this week? He was not even watching his team's pretty tame -looking playing and the caught stealing. Time for the Nats to stop waiting until the ninth inning. They are looking a little off today. The crazy week catching up with them? Gorzo – just keep it close.
- Wally - Jun 25, 2011 at 9:14 PM
The last few weeks, Desi has looked as bad at the plate as I have ever seen him. I know he had the 10 game or so hitting streak, but he just looks bad, to my eye. His pitch selection is worse than usual, he looks very stiff and he doesn't seem balanced in his swing.I don't think he is this bad, and will get straightened out somehow. Maybe he'll by Davey's special project.

Not sure exactly what Rizzo's supposed to say when the TV networks pull him in to talk about the status of the team. I'm tired of hearing his voice, too, but he seems to be saying the appropriate things.There might have been a bit more PBP in the top of the 3rd if Rizzo had commented on that missed CS call at second, but that's not what he was there to do.Grandstander, I quite agree about whoever is calling the camera shots in the truck. Some truly bizarre choices are being made.

I understand Unkyd, it hurts bitting the tongue.All these apperances drives home the need for a president of operations. Much as I disliked Stan, things would not have reached this point. He would have overseen a conversation and if Riggleman still wanted to quit, he would have had it done in a professional maner with minimum drama, and probably during winter meetings or spring training when it started.
- Dave - Jun 25, 2011 at 9:19 PM
Took Fox about two and a half minutes to cue up Gorzelanny's balk and re-lay it. MASN would've had it in 20 seconds.I think Fox sent the B-team to cover this game today.

Whynat – I grew up going to Griffith Stadium so I had high hopes for "The Last Boy" by Jane Leavy which is a biography on Mickey Mantle. She does a nice job but it is not all baseball and she touches on Mantle's difficulties outside the lines.This broadcast team has brought me back to Dave and Charlie where I am more comfortable anyway. Like seeing Bixler starting and am fine with Zimm having a day at dh (although I heard a stat that he is 1-15 in that role). We are now in the 5th and Gorzo seems to be ok. I am going to be interested if its a save situation, seeing who McLaren goes with.Go Nats!!

On a positive note, Gorzo is looking pretty good working under pressure. 6 innings of 1 run ball, can't ask for much more than that from him. Lots of little bloopers dropping in too.Hopefully he's coming back into form, but I'd to start him at CBP with all those warning track flies.

Cy Young lives again. This is just like before they started winning. Hitters looking clueless. WHo is going to be the hitting coach under Davey.

We can't hit sliders (and we really shouldn't bother swinging at them) as most of the times they are not strikes. .

Top of the order due up in the 9th. It's over. I think every rally for the last 2 weeks has started midway though the order.What are Werth's numbers like for the month of June? He seems to have been pretty non-existent at the plate in my memory of the last couple weeks.
- Manassas Nats Fan - Jun 25, 2011 at 10:55 PM
Second day in a row the bullpen is ineefective as a whole. Going into the weekend I think the ERA of the starters was much higher than the relievers. I plan on doing the figures after the game.What is with our hitters do we all need eye exams. Swings at bad pitches or pitches that are over the plate but not near the bat. (this was definitely like pre streaking batting.)

I think the interim, interim manager needs to declare and early bedtime for the boys tonight. One story, one drink of water and lights out! Sweet dreams of a win tomorrow.

My favorite goof was when Lewin quoted Pudge as saying that in his first major league game he threw out Alex Rios.Uh, make that Alex Cora.As for the game — OK, stuff happens and we've had our share of good fortune. But I don't understand several of Mac's choices today.1. Danks is out of the game after 26 pitches and is replaced by Bruney. Why don't you get Nix in the game immediately?2. You need to manufacture a run. Adam Dunn is a weak fielder. Why aren't you bunting on him again and again and again and again?I would do it until he proves he can make the play.
- JaneB - Jun 25, 2011 at 11:00 PM
Our TV just died in the middle of the play that resulted in the two extra runs scoring. I'm not taking this as a good sign for the Nats.
- FS - Jun 25, 2011 at 11:01 PM
WOW went to play tennis, just got back to see Nats losing 0-3. Well Gorzo did good. Do we have any magic left for a comeback in the ninth?
- Grandstander - Jun 25, 2011 at 11:02 PM
I thought he said Alex Cora, but in actuality it was Joey Cora, Alex's brother who is now bench coach for the White Sox.
- baseballswami - Jun 25, 2011 at 11:03 PM
On a more positive note(maybe?) – Jayson Werth, although he makes more money than Adam Dunn, is not quite as bad, either. Almost, but not quite.

Well, a combined 2 -hitter. That was definitely underwhelming. Gorzy hung in there,but no luck in natstown today.Until tomorrow…..
- Manassas Nats Fan - Jun 25, 2011 at 11:10 PM
Start another streak tomorrow. But lets start hitting the ball regularly. 30 K's in 2 games is pathetic.
- Manassas Nats Fan - Jun 25, 2011 at 11:14 PM
In case anyone cares,I hate the word certification thing. The letters are hare to read on my computer, and I miss it half the time Just looked it up. Going into today only 2 teams San Diego and the nats have more strike outs than hits. Sand Diego 630 K and 604 Hm and Nats 605 K and 603 Hits. No one else is real close. If I am Johnson that is the first thing I approach and fix.

Wow, I'm sorry, but Fox did the Nats game horribly. They appear to know nothing about the Nats and it was embarrassing to watch. At least pronounce Bernadina correctly, sheesh.

Ugh, bad game and bad broadcasters made this a very weird loss.The whole "feel" of the game was strange. The Nats' MASN team (including pre and post game) is actually pretty good. I missed them today.

Werth and R zimm are really letting the team down with the bats. Zimm with 3 Ksss. Open your eyes man. I guess its Rigglemans fault.

Random grab bag catch-up post time:Condolences to the Storen family.Shutouts are frustrating. Get Good Livo tomorrow and maybe we can take the series. Gorzo pitched much better than I anticipated. Bruney, too. :-(I didn't mind the Fox team that much, but I missed Bob and FP. I'd rather have listened to these guys than McCarver and Buck, who wouldn't have been any more knowledgeable about the team if past broadcasts are any indicator. I actually kind of like Casey (have seen him on MLB Network quite a bit). He is a bit of a chatterbox, but then again, they didn't call him The Mayor for nothing. I did feel that the buzz around the team was more positive than on previous national broadcasts, and I think that's a plus. I was glad Rizzo opted not to indulge in a he said/he said session, which is what the Fox team seemed to want.I second Wally on the Posnanski book, which I'd almost mentioned earlier.I *did* feel sorry for Dunn. Hope that his bat warms up *after* the series ends.Is it just me, or does Lillbridge look like a daggone Hobbit?

Tough loss today but we can't win em all boys. Hopefully, we will see good Livo tommorow(whoever is behind the plate needs to a have a rather big strike zone). Gonna watch the O's game and hopefuly they can beat the Reds. GYFNG
- masnstinks - Jun 26, 2011 at 12:16 AM
Flat game today – I guess things were bound to catch up with them. I hope tomorrow is a better game – no offense today. It's the last game I will see in a few days due to the 10 pm starts. Storen is having a tough time these last few days.Multiple stresses. Sometimes we forget just how young some of these guys are. Most of the bullpen should be available again tomorrow – but I hope they are not needed and Livo rights the ship.
- natsfan1a - Jun 26, 2011 at 12:22 AM
Me, too, on the 10 p.m. starts.Re. the strike zone, at one point after what seemed like a pretty good pitch, I asked rhetorically "What was wrong with that?" My husband quickly replied, "It was thrown by a Nats pitcher." Heh.At least the Fox guys knew about Beast Mode.

- Big Cat - Jun 26, 2011 at 12:37 AM
Boy, our hitting has just been pitiful. Just frickin horrendous! Is Werth ok? There is something the matter with him. He hits like he can't see. He has no clue where that little white thing is. Takes pitches down the middle and then hacking blindly at anything close to the plate. Personally, I think he should give some of his paychecks back. He has been clueless.
- baseballswami - Jun 26, 2011 at 1:12 AM
I think we should nominate Adam Dunn and Jayson Werth for the All Star Game Home Run Derby. Maybe the practice swings will help them both get it together.Once again, on the broadcast, rizzo talked about how valuable Werth is to the club — I think he will be in the future, but it's hard to see it right now. His swing looks very awkward.
- Cwj - Jun 26, 2011 at 1:45 AM
Big Cat- Pitiful? Today yes. Not so much the previous 14 games (12-2 record, scoring 6+ runs 6 times).Lets not get carried away after they actually lose a game. If they play .500 baseball the rest of the season, most people's pre-season predictions would be surpassed.In the mean time Go Nats!!

- Manassas Nats Fan - Jun 26, 2011 at 3:28 AM
@ Cwj I acgree with Big Cat. Sure they have hit better, but in this 12 game win streak, they have an number of 2 run wins and 1 run win.They are winning despite over poor hitting. Still 15th in the league in hitting. They need learn to swing at strikes, and not at balls. I said it earlier they now have 605 hits and 619 Ks. Only one other team has more Ks than H. That is poor eyesight.

Two other classics that any baseball fan would enjoy are "The Glory of Their Times" by Lawrence S. Ritter and "The Boys of Summer" by Roger Kahn.Ritter's book was first published in 1966. He took a reel-to-reel tape machine and recorded indelible stories from old-time ballplayers. Each chapter is a spoken take-you-there narrative across the mists of time, told by ballplayers such as Rube Marquard, "Wahoo" Sam Crawford and Smokey Joe Wood.The title comes from Ecclesiastes: "All these were honored in their generation and were the glory of their times."Kahn's "The Boys of Summer", published in 1972, is the story of those halcyon days when he was a reporter covering Brooklyn's beloved Bums. Kahn hooks you with his very first line:"At a point in life when one is through with boyhood, but has not yet discovered how to be a man, it was my fortune to travel with the most marvelously appealing of teams."

This doesn't necessarily fit the book club criteria but on the fan reading list front, I'll repeat my post from last spring:In other news, I just finished reading "Spring Training," by William Zinsser. The book features a behind-the-scenes look at Spring Training with the 1988 Pirates of GM Syd Thrift and skipper Jim Leyland. Very interesting read about one team's approach to teaching fundamentals in Spring Training. I really enjoyed the book, and it whetted my appetite for my first ever visit to Viera.

Air Force: Sequestration already creating 'chronic inefficiency'
Friday - 2/8/2013, 5:57pm EST
To say nothing of the impacts that would occur if automatic federal budget cuts are actually triggered, the intensive planning efforts and pre-emptive spending reductions the Air Force is already undertaking as preemptive measures are taking a toll on military preparedness and combat capability, officials said Thursday.
Like the other military services, the Air Force has already taken preliminary measures to slow the rate at which it's spending money in the current fiscal year though measures such as a civilian hiring freeze and conference cancellations. But some of the longer-term impacts will come from the mere fact that the Air Force's planners have been distracted by a seemingly constant string of budget crises, said Dr. Jamie Morin, the acting undersecretary of the Air Force.
"In an ideal world you'd want your Department of Defense leadership focusing on organizing, training and equipping the force the nation needs in a potential contingency five or ten years from now. Sequestration has us looking a month from now, a week from now, a day from now," he said. "It's like driving down a highway at 70 miles an hour staring right at your hood ornament. It's not a recipe for success."
Morin told reporters at the Pentagon the Air Force estimates that the combination of the March 1 sequestration cuts and a full-year continuing resolution in the absence of an enacted DoD budget would leave the service with a $12.4 billion shortfall by the end of the year if it took no action to reserve funds. Besides the hiring and travel cutbacks, the Air Force has already ordered its major commands to cut back on all unnecessary spending and cancelled all non-emergency maintenance to its facilities.
"This is a pretty serious pull-back," he said. "It hits things like runway repairs, taxiway repairs, lighting system repairs, sewer lines, energy efficiency improvements, all of the rest of those sorts of installation-level activities that we carry on. We've got a list of over 400 projects that will be affected, hitting 140 different installations, 34 states, numerous overseas countries. This is a pretty big deal. It may not get as much attention as sometimes the effects on the big major acquisition programs, yet the reality is at local levels bases are already beginning to see projects deferred that will yield deteriorated facilities and a significant hit to the local contractor work forces that perform that kind of work for us."
Besides construction, cutbacks already in place at the major command level include expenditures on service contracting, IT projects and facility support. Morin said those reductions have already taken a noticeable bite out of the small business contracts the Air Force was planning to execute for the year, and comes at a time when the service was struggling to turn around a decline in small firm contracting that had lasted several years.
"That is clearly at risk, and frankly out the window if sequestration hits," Morin said. "We're already seeing a three percentage point decline in our [small business] utilization, which will more than reverse the progress that we've made. It's a $100 million deterioration so far."
Furloughs necessary under sequestration
If sequestration occurs, the Air Force will make another series of cuts that it says would be more damaging, and more difficult to reverse.
Like the other services, it would immediately begin to furlough each of its 120,000 civilian employees for one day a week for the remainder of the fiscal year, which ends in September, a move Morin said would be a "destructive breach of faith" with the Air Force's non-uniformed workforce.
Impact to military missions would be especially severe in Air Force operations that are dominated by civilian employees, said Gen. Larry Spencer, the Air Force's Vice Chief of Staff.
"I have spoken with several of our Airmen in the field about sequestration and what it would mean to them. A flying training wing commander at the busiest airfield in the Air Force is extremely concerned about what will happen to his work force since his entire maintenance team consists of government civilians," Spencer said. A combination of a decreased workforce and a shortfall in cash to purchase spare parts and perform maintenance would create a "bow wave" of deferred aircraft depot repair into 2014, when the Air Force's cash picture isn't expected to be any brighter.
"We have $11 billion programmed to spend this year. Of that, we will have spent half of that by the first of March," Spencer said. "Of the remaining $5.5 billion, sequestration will result in a cut of roughly $2 billion. That means we will not be able to perform crucial maintenance on approximately 150 aircraft and more than 80 engines of all types in all of our depots. Not only will this have a significant impact on aircraft available to fly missions, it will also drive a ripple effect through our depots that could take five years or more to recover."

Midwest Living Review
This lovely restaurant, a centerpiece in downtown Galena, has a menu that's a bit all over the board but predominantly Italian. That's part of its charm, as is the building in which it's located -- an old stone structure with a historic pedigree (It was once a leather store owned by Ulysses S. Grant's father). If you're lucky enough to sit along the windowed facade, you'll get a great street view of shoppers and tourists while you sample the restaurant's signature Italian bread covered in grated Parmesan and served with a homemade rosemary-infused olive oil. They have a nice selection of Italian options, of which only the lasagna and chicken Marsala can be described as traditional. Among the appealing choices are a wild mushroom ravioli ($18.99), a gouda-Gorgonzola mac-and-cheese with sausage ($21.99) and seafood pasta aglio with sweet peppers ($24.99). Not everything on the menu is Italian, though, which can be confusing but provides options if you're not in the mood a tomato or cream sauce. Among the choice are steaks, including a New York strip covered in blue cheese ($29.99) and an espresso-encrusted filet ($28.99), and seafood, such as the Norwegian salmon ($23.99) and the seared sea scallops ($28.99). We sampled the spinach and roasted garlic-stuffed tortelloni made with asparagus, zucchini and tomatoes and tossed in a citrus cream sauce. While a bit light on tortelloni, the sauce was perfect and the veggies were plentiful.

The Skinnytaste Cookbook: Cover Designs (Help Me Choose!)
After a year of recipe testing, manuscript writing, editing, photo shoots, and everything else that goes into writing a cookbook (and let me tell ya, there is a lot!), I'm SO excited to share three cover designs that (fingers-crossed!) I hope you like as much as I do. But I need your help—I can't decide which one I like best, so I thought it would be fun to let YOU decide!
The design team at Clarkson Potter worked really hard to come up with a cover that would stand out on the shelves. We narrowed it down to three, all photographed by the very talented Penny De Los Santos.
The three recipes pictured on these covers are:
A) Cheesy Baked Penne with Eggplant
B) Buttermilk Oven "Fried" Chicken
C) Kiss My (Shrimp and) Grits
Please help me choose by telling me which you like best: A, B or C in your comments (please don't email me)!
And if you haven't already done so, be sure to sign up for The Skinnytaste Cookbook newsletter. That way you'll be the first to receive recipes, special offers, and lots more about the book!
Comments are now closed,... Thanks for all your helpful input.

I like C the best but I think people will be more drawn to A or B in terms of what people like to eat. B is nice, clean and simple. Everyone loves fried chicken!
ReplyDelete - Anonymous3/30/14, 9:35 AM
I think C is the most appealing because it looks more clean and appetizing than the other 2. In A, I'm not a fan of the messy look from the pasta residue in the pan, and B lacks color I would like to see- one of the things I love about your recipes is that the variety of veg/other ingredients makes the meals look so colorful and nutritious!
ReplyDeleteReplies- Anonymous3/30/14, 10:22 AM
Agreed- C is the best visually. And I don't even like seafood, but that is the one that would attract me most.
Definitely C. "A" looks messy - like a leftover container. It's not very appealing. "B" has unusual composition - the chicken drumsticks are just floating in space, so although they look tasty they don't appear to be connected to a meal. "C" is the best choice to me because it has good composition, good balance, and looks very tasty.
ReplyDelete- Anonymous3/30/14, 9:42 AM
They are all great, but A is the best!! I can't wait for the cookbook to come out.
ReplyDelete - Steph3/30/14, 9:43 AM
C! It's like all your other recipes that have restaurant quality presentations and taste but then you break them down into a few simple steps and voila! Not only is it healthier, bigger in flavor but also super simple!
ReplyDelete - jennifer3/30/14, 9:46 AM
Definitely A. B just looks strange w/ the bits of chicken coating everywhere, and the chicken just tossed about and not arranged on a plate. C just doesn't look appetizing (not a fan of grits). A looks really good, and I like that it isn't perfect (bit of burnt cheese or whatever on the pan handle) makes me think that these recipes were tested by a "real" person and not someone w/ an army of helpers to measure out perfect amounts of every ingredient etc.
ReplyDelete - Lori L.3/30/14, 9:50 AM
Either A or B. If I saw I cookbook with either of those pictures (pasta and fried chicken! yum) that is named for low cal/lowfat I would grab it in a second! Congrats! I love your recipes!
ReplyDelete - Anonymous3/30/14, 9:50 AM
My food choice would be B, but the crumbs make it look messy, which turns me off a little. C is a great picture, but the food is different and a little weird and I probably wouldn't make it.
ReplyDelete They are all great but when pushed to pick, A or C. That comes from someone who has over 500 cookbooks by the way. When it all comes down to it, it is how many great recipes on the inside are there? If the owner is constantly going to that book, you got a winner, regardless of the cover! ;-)
ReplyDelete- Anonymous3/30/14, 9:53 AM
A. you have many other beautiful dishes to choose from, but out of these three I say A.
ReplyDelete - Anonymous3/30/14, 9:54 AM
A is my first choice. I think it looks like an easy and complete meal. Plus having some missing shows that it is really tasty and people couldn't wait to dive in.
C is my next choice as again it shows a complete/healthy meal.
B I understand wanting to show a normally fattening dish made healthy, but this is not a complete meal - no vegetables, no side dish, etc. It wouldn't entice me to buy the book.
I love your recipes though and find it EXTREMELY helpful to stay on track and lose weight with your website and I can't wait for the cookbook!! Gina.. you can take or leave these comments but I am a Creative Director. I like the concepts of A and B but I think they would make better covers if the photos were "cleaner." (Because these aren't the types of dishes you would normally see "skinny." And that would draw people in). However, in A & B there are too many crumbs, splotches of sauce, etc. They look a bit messy. I'm not sure if you had a professional shoot those..but the way you normally style and shoot your dishes is more appealing. I would go back into your archives and choose something from there. The general page layouts are really good though... Just need to switch out the shots.
ReplyDelete- Anonymous3/30/14, 9:56 AM
NO question "C"! However, I would think about having some printed with B and C due to the fact that you will interest different types of people with both. C will include the A people.
ReplyDelete - Anonymous3/30/14, 9:57 AM
I like C, but it was tough. Any would one would make a great cover, but I love sea food and C would just draw me into purchasing that book.
ReplyDelete - Anonymous3/30/14, 9:57 AM
I would pick B. It is simple, you can clearly see the name of the book. Who doesn't love chicken? I will be one of the first to buy this book. Love your recipes!
ReplyDelete - Anonymous3/30/14, 9:58 AM
I think A, mostly because I don't like seafood so cover C turns me off, and cover B looks too sparse... like something is missing. Too much white space.
ReplyDelete - Anonymous3/30/14, 9:59 AM
I would suggest C. It's the cleanest looking. Also, if I was shopping around for a healthy cookbook, my eye would not naturally gravitate to the first two as being "healthy". I would likely skip over the first 2 without even reading the title. Congrats on the cookbook!
ReplyDelete - Angie K.3/30/14, 10:02 AM
I think B or C. Personally, I think the "gooey pan of cheesy pasta" dish is a little cliche and overdone for cookbook covers. I like B if you're going for the minimalist look and C for the luscious look. I'd also be most likely to cook B and C (but I'm from the south and maybe that slants my opinion). But honestly I think fried chicken and shrimp and grits are thought of as "never good for you" foods.
ReplyDelete - Anonymous3/30/14, 10:02 AM
C- the food looks awesome and the pic is a bit more elegant for the cover.
ReplyDelete - Anonymous3/30/14, 10:03 AM
B or C- Skinny fried chicken, I'm in, and shrimp and grits is one of my favorite meals. I don't like eggplant so I might pass on a book with cover A
ReplyDelete - Anonymous3/30/14, 10:04 AM
They all look delish but my favorite is definitely A. Can't wait for the cookbook to come out!
ReplyDelete - Anonymous3/30/14, 10:05 AM
I like B. It just "pops" on the page, and looks like something I'd be surprised was skinny. Also, I think if the picture is too complicated/fancy people will believe that they won't be able to easily recreate the dish. Congrats on getting closer to the finish line! Amy M :)

To me, the colours are all boring and very similar. I much prefer the photos on your website as they are the ones that really suck me in to trying your recipes! If I had to choose, I would choose B as like many others, I don't associate fried anything to skinny taste. Congrats on the cookbook, I'm ready to order!

I think cover B, tasty oven baked chicken, best showcases the theme of your cookbook "skinnytaste", Thank you for all of your time and energy formulating the great healthy recipes...I look forward to your cookbook.
ReplyDelete This is a tough one. C looks the best, but we don't have grits in my country so I wouldn't really know what to make of it! B is the second best, but A isn't very nice- it's so generic and not very appealing even though I'm sure the dish tastes great.
Don't get me wrong, I am going to buy your cookbook no matter what but I'm trying to see it from the point of view of someone who doesn't know your website!- Anonymous3/30/14, 10:14 AM
B. Nice simple colours and the red font really pops against the other colours in the photo.

Definitely "C".. its classy and has a modern look to it . In a book store or online, "C " would catch my attention first.

I definitely like A. It looks like a dish that could normally be high calorie, but it's not. And with part of it missing, it looks like it was quite delicious and can be shared with the whole family.

Same as scetchball, only this is an older, more original description of someone that has been up for days on end, on methamphetamine without any sleep. Therefore becoming extremely paranoid, irrational, irritable, violent and without any reasonable thought proccesses, etc...
Dude, if I was you I would stay completely away from Billie. He is a major scetcher and is really unpredictable and the 5-0 is watching him 24/7.

Aldermen: Stop signs not for speed control
Council opts to remove stop signs at eastside intersection
City crews have orders to remove the east and west stop signs at that intersection after the Dell Rapids City Council at its meeting last week voted 7-1 to remove them.Councilor Mike Geraets brought the measure to the council, saying the stop signs were installed in the late 1990s to prevent traffic from speeding through the intersection, and "that's a misuse of stop signs.""My pet peeve is using stop signs to regulate speed," he said. "If there is a speed limit, then enforce the speed limit."Councilor Lee Burggraff agreed."The problem is a lot of people see stopping on 7th Street as a pointless thing," he said. "It'd be the same thing as going out and putting one on Highway 77 at 15th Street. When the speed limit goes down to 30 and we've got to put a stop sign there to slow traffic."Geraets said the four-way stop at the heavily used intersection along the city truck route is an unnecessary burden for semis and trucks."It seems ridiculous that the stop signs are 150 feet apart," he said "Being a truck driver, I understand the cost of stopping 145,000 pounds and starting it back up again."Councilor Chad Andrews was the lone nay vote.
