Kevin Millwood struggles in first Triple-A start for Red Sox
Jun 2, 2011, 10:15 AM EDT
Kevin Millwood's chances of being called up by the Red Sox improved with the news that Daisuke Matszuaka will likely undergo season-ending elbow surgery, but the veteran right-hander couldn't make it out of the third inning last night in his first Triple-A start for Boston.
Millwood, who signed a minor-league deal with the Red Sox last month after being released by the Yankees, allowed four runs on five hits and two walks before exiting with two outs in the second inning.
Prior to being released by the Yankees he also gave up eight runs in nine innings during two Triple-A starts and reports on his fastball velocity weren't encouraging, which combined with last season's 4-16 record and 5.10 ERA in 191 innings for the Orioles suggests that Millwood may simply be finished at age 36.

I would love a discussion/study/article, or whatever on the "most overrated no-hitters/perfect games."
As a Phils fan I know we have had a couple of not-so-good pitchers in Tommy Green and Kevin Millwood throw no hitters. I am not talking about Roy Haliday going out there, while it's impressive when it's done, him doing isn't a "surprise." Or, if Lincicum threw one, it would be impressive, but not a surprise. Now, if Daniel Hudson threw one, I think there would be a lot of, "Really???"
Think Ben Curtis winning the 2003 British Open. No one is going to confuse Ben Curtis with a great golfer, or all the good to be honest.

Boy, that's a shocker, he gets bombed at the Yankees minor league camp so Theo, the boy blunder takes him on. As the great Roy Orbison song goes," It's over" Millwood, take a hint.

Seriously, how does this guy keep getting signed? Same goes for Rich Harden. There has to be better pitchers out there than guys like this. For every Bartolo Colon (who is in a special class by himself) there are 20 re-treads that teams keep signing.

Well & Good
"Fresh, unprocessed food is the best anti-ageing tool around," says Martha Stewart, 71, the entertaining and home decorating maven. "A good diet gives me energy, keeps my weight under control and prevents disease.
"I don't believe in cutting out any food ecelentirely like butter, sugar or cream. I just eat less of these favourite foods if I'm watching my weight," she says.
"I'm also a strong believer in the Blue Zone diet, often referred to as the Mediterranean diet, which includes lots of leafy green vegetables, whole grains, legumes, fruits, fish and olive oil."
In her new book, Living the Good Long Life: A Practical Guide to Caring for Yourself and Others, Stewart offers these 10 Golden Rules for growing old beautifully: eat well; maintain a healthy weight; stay physically active; get quality sleep; wear sunscreen; collaborate with a good primary care doctor regularly; find your passion; connect with others; stop complaining -- change what you can, and accept what you cannot; stay curious.
Stewart and other health-savvy celebrities share their ideas for reducing stress, sleeping better, exercising regularly and living an overall healthy life in the magazine USA TODAY.
Here are her insights on...
"Healthy living is an ongoing, ever-evolving project. If you try to overhaul too many aspects of your life at once, you'll find yourself overwhelmed. Instead, pick one small healthy habit to start practicing today, whether it's drinking more water, walking at lunchtime or attending a weekly yoga class. Once the first habit feels like second nature, make another change, and so on."
"To laugh is restorative and proven to increase a sense of well-being and a sense of calm in even the most chaotic of times. Finding humour in the smallest actions can provide a fresh outlook and a helpful distraction."
"The worst thing you can do when you can't sleep is to start stressing about the fact that you're awake and unable to fall back asleep. Such thoughts only stimulate your brain, delaying sleep onset that much more. I will usually lie still and focus on my breathing. For the occasional insomnia, I enjoy combining several herbs for a relaxing bedtime beverage."
"I exercise for an hour every single morning. I don't always feel like working out, but I do it. I also take walks almost every day. I enjoy spending a time outdoors. I'm out in my garden every opportunity I have, and I enjoy cycling, hiking and riding horseback.
"In addition to the 'accidental exercise' I get throughout the day with activities like gardening and walking, my favourite workout is lifting weights. I began many years ago, and I've always enjoyed it. I like feeling strong. I can literally feel the improvement after each workout, and I know that at a minimum I'm increasing my strength and my bone mass, and maintaining my weight. I also do yoga two to three times a week, particularly around lunchtime. In just 45 minutes, I can do a routine that gives me flexibility, balance and peace of mind."

Henry George Horak 1919 - 2011
Paid family tribute
Henry George Horak, a longtime resident of Los Alamos, NM and more recently living at The Woodmark in Albuquerque, NM, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, October 11, 2011, after a lengthy battle with Alzheimer's. He was born in Kansas City, MO on March 26, 1919, the eldest of two children of Henry Robert and Leota Horak, nee Gromer. He is survived by his wife Gertrude and three sons, Lou, Karl, and Paul, their wives, Kathleen, Carolyn, and Marcia; as well as three grandchildren, Peter Tyrone Horak, Peter Cassidy Horak, and David Cassidy Horak. Henry was a respected chess expert, a pitcher for the Denver Bears in 1940, a captain in the Eighth Air Force during World War II, and an accomplished accordionist. After the war he earned a PhD in astrophysics and under Nobel laureate Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar from the University of Chicago specializing in radiative transfer. He taught for 17 years as a professor at the University of Kansas. A summary of his work at KU may be found at http://www.physics.ku.edu/astronomy/history/horak.html. In 1967 he moved his family to Los Alamos, NM where he worked at the national laboratory until his retirement at age 72. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests a donation in Henry's name to the Alzheimer's Association, 9500 Montgomery Blvd. NE, Suite 121, Albuquerque, NM 87111 or www.alzheimers.org. Please visit our online guestbook for Henry at www.RememberTheirStory.com.
This information was provided to the Journal-World as a paid tribute.

Can ibuprofen reduce my heart attack risk as well as my pain?
DEAR DOCTOR K: I take ibuprofen every morning for my arthritis. My doctor wants me to take low-dose aspirin every day to reduce my heart attack risk. Ibuprofen and aspirin are both NSAIDs, right? So will the ibuprofen help my arthritis and my heart? Or should I take both?
DEAR READER: When joints ache, many people turn to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for pain relief. Aspirin is a type of NSAID. So are ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) and naproxen (Aleve, Naprosyn). NSAIDs are widely used because they perform double duty. They relieve pain and also reduce inflammation.

A road linking Saudi Arabia with neighbouring Oman will be completed by the end of this year, the former country's transport minister was quoted as saying.
Currently, the only way to travel between the two countries via road is by driving via the UAE – a journey of approximately 2,000km.
The stretch of road that connects Saudi and Oman via the Al Batha border will be around 519km long. It will pass through Saudi Arabia's Empty Quarter, one of the world's largest sand deserts.
Jabarah bin Eid Al Surari said that he expected the new link to boost trade and tourism between the two GCC countries.
According to the Times of Oman, the Omani section of the road has been ready for some time, but the Saudi part has been delayed due to increased costs caused by soft soil.

China has set new targets for its provinces to reduce air pollution by 5 to 25 per cent, state media said, underscoring the government's concern about a source of public anger.
China regularly issues directives to try to tackle air pollution in major cities, but these have had limited effect.
Former health minister Chen Zhu said air pollution in the country caused premature deaths of 350,000 to 500,000 people annually, state media reported on Tuesday. Chen wrote the article in a December issue of the Lancet medical journal.
Air quality in large parts of northern and southern China reached unhealthy levels on Tuesday.
Under the new regulations, Beijing, its neighbouring city of Tianjin and northern Hebei province will have to cut the amount of PM 2.5 particles, which are especially bad for health, by 25 per cent annually, state news agency Xinhua said, citing the ministry of environmental protection.
China's commercial capital, Shanghai, the eastern provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shandong and northern Shanxi will have to impose cuts of 20 per cent.
Reductions of 15 per cent were set for Guangdong and Chongqing and 10 per cent for the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Xinhua said.
The State Council, or cabinet, is mulling a system to evaluate each local government's progress and those who fail to reach goals will be ''named and shamed,'' said the China Daily newspaper.
Air quality in cities is of increasing concern to China's stability-obsessed leaders, anxious to douse potential unrest as a more affluent urban population turns against a growth-at-all-costs economic model that has poisoned much of the country's air, water and soil.
Authorities have invested in various projects to fight pollution and empowered courts to mete out the death penalty in serious cases.
But enforcement of rules has been patchy at the local level, where authorities often rely on taxes paid by polluting industries.

One lawmaker says legislation to fix the chronic backlog of veterans' benefit claims is lacking, so he's taking action.
Senator Bob Casey just introduced legislation that he says will help break up the backlog.
"A lot of veterans are so troubled with PTSD they can't work. In order to get money to live in takes a long time," Ed Goehring, of Upper Milford Township, said.
Goehring would know; he processes Veteran benefit claims out of the Breinigsville FVW.
Goehring served three years in Vietnam.
"I caught a piece of shrapnel," he says pointing to his Purple Heart.
Goehring survived battle after battle, only to engage in a different fight, once he returned home.
He himself had to wait a year and half before he received his disability benefits.
"Why should anyone have to wait that long?" He asked.
According to a task force formed in part by Democratic Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey, the average wait time for a Veteran claim resolution in Pennsylvania is nearly a year.
"That is unacceptable. To say it's an outrage is an understatement," Casey said.
Casey says the VA backlog stems from a lack of urgency, lack of technology, and an outdated system, among other factors.
With thousands of troops returning home from Iraq and Afghanistan Goehring thinks it's only set to get worse.
"We have to make sure the system is improved and a structure is in place that will not be slowed down again," the Senator stated.
The legislation includes streamlining and simplifying VA practices, mandatory six-month reports to Congress and expanding examinations to private physicians.
Whether it becomes law or not, Goehring offers this advice for any Veteran fighting for benefits.
"Keep appealing and don't give up," he said.
We called the Department of Veteran Affairs but did not receive a call back at the time of this report.

April 2, 2011 9:49:00 PM
The Friends of the Columbus-Lowndes Public Library will launch its April Table Talk series on Wednesday, April 6, at noon in the library meeting room, 314 Seventh St. N. As a salute to National Poetry Month, the Table Talks will focus on the oldest of literary art forms -- the poem.
Now in its 15th year, National Poetry Month was established by the Academy of American Poets in 1996, with the aim of drawing the attention of individuals and organizations to the art of poetry, to living poets, and to our complex poetic heritage.
To kick off this month''s talks, the Friends will host a "Poetry Open Mic" session April 6. "We wanted to offer something that invited audience participation," said Friends member Margo Bretz, "and this will give everyone an opportunity to read or recite a favorite poem or entertain us with an original composition."
Elizabeth Simpson, whose book of poems, "Love and Other Madness," is planned for publication later this year, will moderate the poetic give-and-take.
Doors open at 11:30 a.m. for those wishing to bring their lunch and socialize before the program begins at noon. The Friends will serve iced tea.
April programs
"Other programs during April will examine how poetry works and why it moves us. Our speakers will discuss both famous and unfamiliar poems during their presentations," related Friends board member Jo Shumake.
For more information on the April Table Talk series, contact the Friends at firstname.lastname@example.com

Barbecue and Politics Thursday at the State Fairgrounds - 04/01/14
For decades, the "Sure Shot Rabbit Supper" was a Nasvhille tradition. Former sheriff Fate Thomas combined food and politics to raise money for local churches. After Fate ran afoul of the law the rabbit super disappeared but now thanks to Fate Thomas Junior it's back.
Thursday evening at the State Fairgrounds in South Nashville it will be a who's who of local politics. In one of the busiest county elections in recent memory, candidates will be pressing the flesh and looking to sway votes.
There will also be a straw poll. It's not scientific but might give us a glimpse at what the primary election results will look like. Best of all, I'm told the proceeds will be divided among a handful of Nashville churches.
If you live in Davidson County and love politics, this picnic is for you. It may be raining but you only have to make it from the car to the building.

WATERLOO, Ontario (AP) -- Dozens of Canadian women -- and men -- have something to get off their chests. They rallied over the weekend to support a woman's right to go shirtless. The "Bare With Us" protest was organized by three sisters who were recently stopped by a police officer for biking topless. They noted that women have had the right to go bare-chested in Ontario since 1996. Musician Alysha Brilla says when she and her sisters were stopped they told the officer he was in the wrong. Brilla says when they started to record the interaction on a cellphone, the officer said he was just checking the bells and lights on their bikes.
BOISE, Idaho (AP) -- Outlaw beer has been out-lawyered. Idaho's craft Payette Brewery is changing the name of their Outlaw IPA. Founder Mike Francis tells the Idaho Statesman the move is prompted by a cease-and-desist letter from another brewer. Francis says an Illinois-based brewery owns the trademark. He says "Outlawyered" has been thrown out as an option for a new name. Francis adds they'll rebrand by the end of the year.
MACKINAW CITY, Mich. (AP) -- It's a maxi Mini effort. More than 1,300 Mini Coopers crossed the Mackinac Bridge in northern Michigan on Saturday. It was fun, but it wasn't a world's record. In 2009, 1,450 Minis drove single-file in London. The Bay City Times says there were license plates from Alaska, Texas, California and Colorado during the weekend Mini drive. The Mini lovers say they'll try again in 2017.
JONESVILLE, Mich. (AP) -- Barbie is long gone. But new residents could soon be moving in. An old factory in southern Michigan is getting a new life as an apartment building. The Kiddie Brush and Toy factory in Jonesville has been quiet since the 1970s. But by next spring, the owners hope to have nearly 50 housing units with one or two bedrooms. Over the decades the factory produced everything from cars to Barbie doll parts. City Manager Jeff Gray told the Hillsdale Daily News the redevelopment project is something they've been looking forward to for a long time.

Six ads, one campaign: the 'mercy' PSA highlights a pressing issue faced in many Saudi households.
December 15, 2008 6:20 by Dana El Baltaji
Since the Human Rights Watch (HRW) report titled "As If I Am Not Human" was published in July 2008, Saudi Arabia has had a dilemma concerning the abuse of domestic helpers: either it admits to a growing problem of abuse within Saudi homes, or it buries its head in the sand until the next report scathes the nation's image again.
As the local government mulls over its next move, Saudi-based Fullstop advertising has released a number of public service announcements (PSA) about the issue. Three print ads and three television commercials address the hypocrisies of Saudi society, highlighting the importance of treating all workers with respect and dignity.
Kaswara Al Khatib, managing director of FullStop, said the PSAs is the first of a three phase campaign. "This campaign is sponsored by a man who doesn't want to be named right now. He doesn't want to associate himself with the negative ads only. He wants to wait until the second and third phases are out before he reveals himself," explains Al Khatib.
Although the subject is openly discussed in the world media, it is considered a controversial issue in Saudi Arabia. But to Al Khatib, producing the PSAs was not a matter of controversy: "If I see something bad, then I talk about it. That's what Islam teaches us to do. "
According to Al Khatib, the ads have received only a handful of negative responses from the Saudi public, although he admits that if he weren't a Saudi national, the message would have been perceived as a criticism rather than an awareness campaign: "If someone else produced the ads, someone who isn't Saudi, then people would worry that the person is trying to harm Saudi Arabia and its reputation."
This may explain the response to the HRW report. "I'm sure there are abuses," said Turki Al Sudairy, president of the government-appointed Human Rights Commission in a phone interview. "But a neutral person would think that all Saudis are doing this…We want a fair judgment…They [Human Rights Watch] never thought that there are cases where the girls are hurting their employers."
The report claims that workers are beaten, raped, confined to the home, denied their wages, murdered, and verbally and psychologically abused. According to HRW, the kingdom's judiciary system has yet to tackle abuse of domestic violence, and expose abused workers to further victimization:
"In May 2008, a Riyadh court dropped charges against a Saudi employer who abused Nour Miyati, an Indonesian domestic worker, ignoring both the employer's confession and compelling physical evidence. Nour Miyati suffered daily beatings and was abused so badly that her toes and fingers were amputated after developing gangrene. During the three years of legal proceedings, she remained stuck in an overcrowded embassy shelter unable to work or return to her family in Indonesia. At one point, she also was sentenced 79 lashes for changing her testimony, though the sentence was later reversed."
According to the CIA World Factbook, out of the 28.1 million inhabitants of Saudi Arabia, 5.6 million are expatriates. The HRW report refers to the 1.5 million domestic staff in the kingdom.
The PSAs, dubbed the Mercy Ads, appeal to the Saudi pubic to treat domestic helpers with understanding, kindness and respect. It's a message long overdue.

A brilliant and well-needed effort. But the problem is very deep and sadly there are many employees of the government who enforce such racist attitude within the Saudi society. I was myself a victim of severe verbal abuse by a Saudi who claimed to be part of the Saudi Intelligence apparatus, why did he do it, because he wanted to avoid paying damages to all the drivers who were in front of his car. The chain reaction was caused by him due to his overspeeding and he blamed me and my friend for putting the brakes. He explicitly said to me "You f***ing foreigner, you have no rights." When our case was taken to the police, he insisted that I be thrown into jail for verbally abusing him (which wasn't the case since he was the one who started it) and then he allegated against me that I disreputed the Kingdom which is why he was treating me in a harsh manner. Had not been for a very nice Saudi friend of mine (with good links, ofcourse). I would had been in the slammer.
I'm glad this article appears.
As an Indonesian, I'm sad to see how many Indonesian domestic helper became victim of abusive employer. The term abusive may not be sufficient to picture the brutality toward them, since many of the victim had been deformed, literally, for suffering so many tortures. Many of them facing the death sentence for self-defense attempt from being raped by their employer or the family.
I hope the the Saudi government protect the foreign worker that work there, no matter what is their job: in the management level or a humble servant.
(Tessa, thank you for your comment)
Though Islam is supposed to treat all humans equally, why is this happening in the home of Islam? What failed? Racism reeks in the streets of Arab world. Why is white Westerners never sentenced to death in Saudi, where are Asians and Africans are killed off for even relatively minor crimes. I dont have anything against the Whites, who are in general non-racist. But it irks me to see open racism followed by the Governments in the region, though most Arabs are non-racist.

Paying For Next Year's Summer Camp Experience
As you probably know, we loved our Camp Ho Non Wah experience this summer so much that we have already booked a return visit for next summer. Parents have asked for a way to make paying for summer camp easier and we have a couple of options that we believe will help.
Option 1:
Get your scout(s) involved in selling Trials End Popcorn in the upcoming sale. The profit that they make from their efforts can be applied to the cost of summer camp (or any scouting activity that is coming up).
Option 2:
Use the button below to make several (monthly?) payments across time, starting now, to help to spread the cost of summer camp out across a longer period of time.
Summer Camp 2016 – Early Payment Option – $25 (actually $26.06)
The payment button can also be found on the right side of the webpage for ease of use in the months to come.

Jamaat to launch nation-wide `anti-imperialism` campaign
New Delhi: In a bid to highlight the perils
of capitalist imperialism and related politics in the country,
Jamaat-e-Islami Hind will launch a 10-day nation-wide campaign
starting here tomorrow.
The campaign entitled "Save the country from Slavery and
Poverty" will try to present alternatives from Islamic
perspective on the topic.
"The Jamaat is of the view that the current politics of
the central and state governments in the country have led to a
crisis situation of neo-slavery which has adversely affected
the day-to-day life of common people," Mujtaba Farooq,
Secretary of Jamaat-e-Islami Hind, told reporters here today.
"India has been moving away from its basic values of
justice, freedom, equality and non-aligned foreign policy. The
impact of post-globalisation neo-liberal capitalist era has
severely affected the `aam aadmi` (common man) of the country,
leading to his exploitation."
The Jamaat, through this campaign, intend to present the
Islamic guidance as the alternative to the imperialist model
of economy and social order, said Syed Jalaluddin Umari,
President of the organisation.
The campaign, to be conducted at all state capitals
and district headquarters, will be concluded in Bangalore on
December 20.

The cocktail artists managed to make Continue Reading »

Review of Ubuntu Phone – A Work Still Under Progress
However, what one must remember is that the Ubuntu Phone is still a work in progress. The company is issuing updates every month and is relying on its current user base regarding the feedback and ideas. Right now, only three Ubuntu phones are present in the market ranging from $186 to $328 roughly. Ubuntu has been in hibernation mode for the development of this OS for a long time and it looked like they might be consumer ready now, however, after seeing the Ubuntu Phone it looks like they might be far from that scenario right now.

Beauty queens not NZ citizens
Relevant offers
The Queenstown beauty queen who placed highly in the Miss Universe New Zealand pageant feels she has been dragged into a judge's row for not being a Kiwi citizen.
The media spotlight has been turned on pageant organisers after it was discovered Miss Otago Monique Cooley, who was third runner-up, and Miss Howick, Avianca Bohm, who won the Miss New Zealand title on Sunday night, are not New Zealand citizens.
Miss Cooley was born in Australia but has lived in New Zealand for 12 years, and Miss Bohm is a South African citizen.
Just before leaving for a 10-day holiday in Hawaii, Ms Cooley told The Southland Times she had "no shame'' in the citizenship situation because she had lived in New Zealand for over half her life, regarded herself a Kiwi, and would still consider representing Otago in the pageant next year.
"I had a call from one of the judges last night, who taped the conversation, then got it out to the media, which is why both me and Avianca have been written about today,'' she said.
Between catching connecting flights, Miss Cooley had only been able to speak with pageant organiser Val Lott's husband and business partner Allan Parker today.
"They are trying to deal with it in the most positive way possible ... The judge that's spreading this whole thing, Jack Yang, I don't know why he's doing it. I am not the winner, I am the third-runner up, so I really don't know why I've been flung into this whole situation.''
Mr Yang is a judge of the pageant, but also a sponsor.
She had been flooded with media requests for interviews since news broke about the potential scandal.
"Everyone knew that I was originally from Australia, but New Zealand is my home and unfortunately it was never made clear to me that I had to apply for citizenship,'' she said.

Our order was delivered and was ready when we arrived at our resort. This was the absolute best way to keep our kids and grandkids and ourselves hydrated and comfortable during our stay without going broke buying drinks at the theme parks. Would highly recommend Garden Grocer if you are traveling to Disney or any of the other parks in the area. The selection is amazing. They have everything you could possibly want.
everything worked great, will use again. Delivery was right on time and everything we ordered was there.
Fabulous service! I no sooner placed my order when I received a call to confirm. Then AS I was unboarding the plane I got a text saying my groceries were delivered and waiting for me. My groceries arrived fresh my order was correct. I would recommend this to anyone travelling to Disney with young children. We saved so much money eating breakfast in the hotel and packing PB&J's and juice boxes for lunch. Saved time, money and frustration! Thank you so much for a great experience.
