We all need super-quick options for those times when we're in a rush. The sweet chili addition might be a little less healthy than a homemade sauce, but I'm happy to lean on these store-bought products now and again for ease. I've tried to balance the bad with the good here, so go big on the kale. If you're really averse to the store-bought sauce, mash some chile, garlic, and ginger in a pestle and mortar for a similar result.Read More
Roasted chicken, juicy and golden and rotating on a spit, is a neighborhood specialty in Mexico City. This recipe, for chicken slathered in an aromatic dried-chile adobo, comes from Alonso Ruvalcaba, a food writer who recently opened his own roasted chicken shop in Condesa. The dish is a little fancier than what's sold in chicken joints and market stalls, but he's captured the essence of what makes Mexican chicken so good: a crisp, flavorful, slightly spicy skin and moist flesh. Serve with a stack of warm tortillas, some salsa, and (if you want to be truly authentic) homemade potato chips, so guests can make tacos.Read More
An elegant sweet recipe, these chocolate-dipped candied orange strips make a wonderful Christmas gift. Just ensure that you make extra, as you will definitely want to keep some for yourself. Although I have made these with orange peel, as is traditional, they can be made with the peel of all different types of citrus fruit—grapefruit makes a wonderful alternative.Read More

"It's hard to find good pie," says Masten, who stops at every roadside café advertising homemade pie. "They are always made with frozen crusts and canned filling."
But Masten's mama taught him differently, and he still uses her lard-based recipe. He's never afraid to share his crust recipe. "If I gave the same recipe to 10 different people, you'd end up with 10 very different pies. You can only do it with practice. In the summer, when the swamp cooler is on, the flour absorbs a lot of that moisture, so you need to add less water. In winter, the moisture evaporates quickly, so you have to add a little more. It's a matter of feel."
Left Fork Grill, 68 W. 3900 South, SLC, 801-266-4322 Click here for more info.
Makes one 9-inch pie crust. For a 2-crust pie, double the recipe.
1 cup flour (Masten only uses Gold Medal flour, unbleached. His mother told him to.)
1/3 cup lard
1/2 tsp. salt
2 to 4 Tbsp. water
Chill the lard at least 4 hours. Sift flour and salt together. Cut the lard in pieces. Add half the lard to the flour and cut in with a pastry blender until it looks like corn meal. Then add the other half of lard and cut it in, leaving the pieces bigger. ("The first blending stirs up enough gluten to make the crust hold together; the second ensures flakiness.") Masten spins the stainless steel bowl as he cuts the fat and flour together. Using a fork, stir in water, dribble by dribble, until the dough clumps. Knead lightly and briefly on a floured board. Shape into a flat round and let rest while making the filling. Roll out the dough.
Chef Masten sifts in the flour and salt, then cuts in the lard before adding ice water just until the dough forms a ball easily. He rolls it out on a floured board, places it in a glass pan. Apple slices are mixed with a tablespoon or so of flour, plus sugar and spices, then spooned into the crust so they mound up. He brushes the edge of the bottom crust with water, unfolds the top crust of it, pressing it to seal. Then he places the pie on a can so he can turn it as he trims and crimps the crust. Finally, he vents the crust and brushes the top with a mixture of milk and beaten egg for a shiny finish.

Drug-induced diarrhea is loose, watery stools that occurs when you take certain medicines.
Diarrhea associated with medications
Nearly all medicines may cause diarrhea as a side effect. The drugs listed below, however, are more likely to cause diarrhea.
Laxatives are meant to cause diarrhea.
Antacids that have magnesium in them may also cause diarrhea or make it worse.
Antibiotics also can produce diarrhea.
Many other drugs may cause diarrhea:
Some herbal teas contain senna or other "natural" laxatives that can cause diarrhea. Other vitamins, minerals, or supplements may also cause diarrhea.
To prevent diarrhea due to antibiotic use, talk to your doctor about taking supplements containing healthy bacteria (probiotics). Some of these products may reduce the risk of diarrhea. Keep taking these supplements for a few days after you finish your antibiotics.

Ranked among the nation's most integrated healthcare systems, Community Health Network is Central Indiana's leader in providing convenient access to exceptional healthcare services, where and when patients need them—in hospitals, health pavilions, workplaces, schools and homes.
Encephalitis is a term used to describe inflammation of the brain. This condition causes problems with the brain and spinal cord function. The inflammation causes the brain to swell, which leads to changes in the child's neurological condition, including mental confusion and seizures.
The cause of encephalitis varies depending on the season, the area of the country, and the exposure of the child. Viruses are the leading cause of encephalitis. Although vaccines for many viruses, including measles, mumps, rubella, and chickenpox have greatly lowered the rate of encephalitis from these diseases, other viruses can cause encephalitis. These include herpes simplex virus and rabies.
Encephalitis can also occur following infection by disease-carrying agents including ticks (Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever), mosquitoes (West Nile virus, St. Louis encephalitis), and cats (toxoplasmosis and cat-scratch disease).
Encephalitis often is preceded by a viral illness such as an upper respiratory infection, or a gastrointestinal problem such as diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. The following are the most common symptoms of encephalitis. However, each child may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
The symptoms of encephalitis may resemble other problems or medical conditions. Always consult your child's physician for a diagnosis.
The diagnosis of encephalitis is made after the sudden or gradual onset of specific symptoms and after diagnostic testing. During the examination, your child's physician obtains a complete medical history of your child, including his/her immunization history. Your child's physician may also ask if your child has recently had a cold or other respiratory illness, or a gastrointestinal illness, and if the child has recently had a tick bite, has been around pets or other animals, or has traveled to certain areas of the country.
Diagnostic tests that may be performed to confirm the diagnosis of encephalitis may include the following:
Specific treatment for encephalitis will be determined by your child's physician based on:
The key to treating encephalitis is early detection and treatment. A child with encephalitis requires immediate hospitalization and close monitoring.
The goal of treatment is to reduce the swelling in the head and to prevent other related complications. Medications to control the infection, seizures, fever, or other conditions may be used.
The extent of the problem is dependent on the severity of the encephalitis and the presence of other organ system problems that could affect the child. In severe cases, a breathing machine may be required to help the child breathe easier.
As the child recovers, physical, occupational, or speech therapy may be necessary to help the child regain muscle strength and/or speech skills.
The healthcare team educates the family after hospitalization on how to best care for their child at home and outlines specific clinical problems that require immediate medical attention by his/her physician. A child with encephalitis requires frequent medical evaluations following hospitalization.

A new memorial endowed scholarship has been established with the Moraine Park Foundation, designated for students in the apprentice programs at Moraine Park Technical College.Kenneth E. Wedell served the apprenticeship programs at Moraine Park for 15 years as apprentice coordinator, retiring in 1986. He was a journeyworker patternmaker and had worked in the field before he redirected his career to education by helping others achieve their journeyworker status in the skilled trades. He got his start in pattern making while in the Navy, and in 1951 he graduated from Stout State University (now the University of Wisconsin–Stout) with a bachelor's degree in industrial education then advanced to a master's degree in the same field from the University of Minnesota. In retirement, he enjoyed woodworking, the outdoors and spending time with his family. Wedell passed away in March 2010 at age 89. Recognizing that education can open doors to the future, his family has established the Kenneth Wedell Endowed Scholarship for Apprentices with the Moraine Park Foundation. This scholarship will assist apprentices with their tuition, fees, books and supplies. "The apprenticeship program at Moraine Park was very important to Dad," said daughter Ann Wedell Secrest of Anchorage, Alaska, who spoke for the family. "Dad was such a strong proponent of vocational education. We established this scholarship so Moraine Park's apprentices will benefit and strengthen the industry in which they work."The Moraine Park Foundation has eight endowed scholarships and 19 annual scholarships that honor the memories of loved ones and make a difference for current students.

A stop at baggage claim and a 45-minute bus ride in a steady rain capped our day. With the time difference, we arrived just before 1 a.m. Eastern, Thursday. The team will have the chance to sleep in before breakfast. Thursday will also bring a trip to the Maryland campus and a practice session.
The Pacific-10 released its 2009 all-conference teams, Wednesday. Senior midfielder Carly Dobratz was named to the first team while senior forward Kiersten Dallstream and junior goalkeeper Meghan Berlingo garnered second team honors. Midfielder Mel Johnston and defender Mariah Cameron were selected for the all-freshman team.
The Cougars are back in the NCAA Championship, the first time in school history the program has gone o the postseason in consecutive seasons. WSU will depart Pullman at 11 a.m. tomorrow and arrive at the hotel in the Washington, D.C., area around 10 p.m. Pacific. The Cougars will play Villanova in the first round, Friday, Nov. 13 at 8 p.m. Eastern/5 p.m. Pacific. The blog will be updated daily and you can follow WSU's quest for a national championship.
The soccer team will be featured on FSN's Cougars All-Access this week. The show will air at 6:30 p.m., 7:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m., Wednesday as well as noon, Thursday and 1:30 p.m. and 6 p.m., Friday.
Graham Hays of ESPN.com named Cougar senior forward Kiersten Dallstream among the "Others to Watch" in preparation for the 2010 Women's Professional Soccer Draft.
If it was March instead of November, ESPN would be showing games every night as part of Championship Week and viewers could tune in to watch teams earn their way to the NCAA Tournament in men's basketball. In women's soccer, for the most part, we are relegated to online video streaming and live stats to find out what is going on around the country. In an effort to bring the information to a central location, here is a breakdown, complete with opinions about which teams may or may not be going to the postseason, of what is going on around the nation.
There are 30 automatic bids that are earned by conference champions and 34 at-large bids handed out by the NCAA. The process for determing an automatic bid is left up to the individual conference. Some crown the regular season champion while others have a conference tournament. Through yesterday, three schools have earned an automatic bid, Stanford in the Pacific-10, Loyola (Md.) in the Metro Atlantic Athletic and Harvard in the Ivy League. That leaves 27 automatic bids and the 34 at-large selections up for grabs.
Several factors determine the at-large bids, including but not limited to, record, conference finish, record late in the season and NCAA Ratings Power Index (RPI). A team must be .500 or better to be considered for an at-large bid.
Conference tournaments are continuing or beginning today and run through Sunday while other leagues will wrap up their regular season over the weekend. The NCAA will announce the field of 64 at 5 p.m., Monday on ESPNews.
America East - Binghamton and Boston will play for the conference's automatic bid, Saturday. This is a one bid league, meaning no other team has the credentials to earn an at-large bid based on the information we have available.
Atlantic Coast - The conference tournament semifinals are Friday with the championship scheduled for Sunday. Florida State and Virginia Tech meet in one match, Friday and North Carolina takes on Boston College in the other. Florida State and North Carolina both have a chance to be a top seed in a region. Boston College will be among the top 16 teams, thus earning a national seed and Virginia Tech is contention for the same. Other teams that will make the field include Wake Forest and Maryland. Virginia is 9-5-5 and had a RPI of 30 coming to the week. Duke at 8-8-4 and a RPI of 38 is probably out.
Atlantic Sun - Steton plays Belmont and Jacksonville meets Kennesaw State in the conference tournament semifinals today. The championship match is Sunday and will determine the only bid here.
Atlantic 10 - The six-team conference tournament begins today with Fordham against Massachusetts and St. Bonaventure taking on Saint Louis. The top two seeds, Dayton and Charlotte have a bye into Friday's semifinals. The championship is Sunday. Dayton is 14-0-5 and is No. 40 in the RPI while Charlotte is 15-2-2 and No. 51 in the RPI. It is tough to imagine Dayton not receiving an at-large bid, but if the Flyers win the conference tournament, this is a one bid league.
Big East - West Virginia and Marquette square off in one semifinal, Friday and St. John's plays Notre Dame in the other. The championship is Sunday. Notre Dame will be a national No. 1 or No. 2 in the NCAA Championship and the other three are locks for the postseason. Villanova at 11-5-5 and a RPI of 44 is on the bubble.
Big Sky - Portland State is the top seed and will play Northern Arizona in one semifinal, Friday. Eastern Washington and Idaho State meet in the other and the championship is Sunday for the conference's only bid.
Big South - Eight teams are alive in this one bid league. The quarterfinals are today with the following match-ups: Coastal Carolina/VMI, Liberty/Wintrhop, Gardner-Webb/High Point, Charleston Southern/Raford. Liberty is the top seed.
Big Ten - There is no conference tournament here and the regular season champion will receive the automatic bid. Ohio State and Penn State are tied for the conference lead. The Nittany Lions defeated the Buckeyes and own the tiebreaker. Ohio State plays at Michigan State, Friday and Penn State visits Michigan, Sunday. Both teams are locks for the NCAA Tournament and should receive a national seed. Wisconsin at 9-5-5 and No. 31 in the RPI is proably in while Indiana at 10-5-2 and No. 36 in the RPI, Purdue at 10-5-3 and No. 39 in the RPI and Minnesota at 11-5-3 and No. 42 in the RPI could all use another win. The Hoosiers and Golden Gophers meet, Friday in would could be an elimination match and Purdue hosts Iowa, Saturday. Michigan State at 10-4-4 and No. 56 in the RPI could make a case with a victory over Ohio State.
Big 12 -The conference semifinals are Friday with Oklahoma State meeting regular season champion Missouri and Texas taking on Texas A&M. The Aggies are in at 13-5-2 and a RPI of 28. Missouri came into the week at No. 47 in the RPI, but at 13-5-3 should be rewarded for the regular season championship. Oklahoma State and Texas need to win the automatic bid.
Big West - The semfinals are today on campus sites with UC Santa Barbara at Cal State Northridge and UC Irvine traveling to Cal Poly. The winners play Sunday for the conference's only bid.
Colonial Athletic Association - Hofstra meets UNC Wilmington and top seed Northeastern plays James Madison in the semifinals, Friday. The conference champion will be determined, Sunday. It should be a one bid league, but at 12-3-3 and a RPI of 50, Northeastern has an outside chance.
Conference USA - UCF and UAB play in one semifinal, Friday and Colorado College plays Memphis in the other. The championship is Sunday. UCF is No. 8 in the RPI and will garner a national seed. Colorado College at 12-5-2 and No. 32 in the RPI should be selected. Memphis has 14 wins and a RPI of 51, but probably stills needs to earn the automatic bid. UAB definitely needs to win the tournament to earn a NCAA bid.
Horizon League - Wright State and Valparaiso meet while Milwaukee plays Loyola (Ill.) in Friday's semifinals. The championship is Sunday in this one bid league.
Ivy League - Harvard has clinched the league's only bid.
Metro Atlantic Athletic - Loyola (Md.) will be the lone representative.
Mid-American - Top-seeded Central Michigan plays Toledo and Eastern Michigan takes on Miami (Ohio) in Friday's semifinals. The league's one bid will be decided, Sunday.
Missouri Valley - Illinois State/Drake and Missouri State/Creighton are the Friday semifinals match-ups. The championship is Sunday in this one bid league.
Mountain West - San Diego State plays Utah and New Mexico takes on top seed BYU in today's semifinals. The championship is Saturday. BYU is in with a 16-2-2 record and No. 28 RPI. San Diego State is probably in at 12-3-5 and No. 41 RPI, but can all but assure that with a victory today.
Northeast - The semifnal match-ups are Long Island/Central Connecticut State and Monmouth/Quinnipiac and will take place, Friday. The championship is Sunday for the league's only bid.
Ohio Valley - The six-team tournament begins today with Tennessee Tech playing Eastern Illinois and Murray State meeting Eastern Kentucky. Top seed Morehead State and No. 2 seed Tennessee-Martin each have a bye into Friday's semifinals. The championship in this one bid league is Sunday.
Pacific-10 - Stanford has earned the automatic bid and the undisputed overall No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. UCLA is a possible No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Washington State and USC play, Friday in a match that could determine a NCAA national seed. Oregon State, Washington and California are in the field and Arizona State could earn its way in, or least put itself back in the discussion, with a sweep of Oregon State and Oregon over the weekend.
Patriot League - Friday's semifinals pit Colgate against Navy and American against Bucknell. Sunday's championship will determine the league's one bid.
Southeastern - Friday's semifinals will match LSU against Auburn and Florida against South Carolina. Florida is a top 16 seed in the NCAA Tournament and South Carolina and LSU could earn the same if either can win the tournament. South Carolina might be able to do it just be reaching the championship match, Sunday. Georgia and Mississippi are in for sure. Auburn may have done enough by beating Mississippi in a quarterfinal, but could erase all doubt with a win over LSU. Vanderbilt at 11-8-1 is a bubble team.
Southern - College of Charleston plays Samford and UNC Greensboro plays Davidson in Friday's semifinals. UNC Greensboro is the top seed and has 13 wins and Samford is 12-1-4. However, the schools own a RPI of 55 and 59, respectively, so this is probably still a one bid league.
Southland - The six-team tournament begins today with Stephen F. Austin playing McNeese State and Sam Houston State taking on Texas-San Antonio. The top two seeds, Texas State and Southeastern Louisiana each have a bye into Friday's semifinals and the champiohship to determine the league's one bid is Sunday.
Southwestern Athletic - The quarterfinals get underway today. The match-ups are Alabama A&M/Arkansas-Pine Bluff, Prairie View A&M/Mississippi Valley State, Alcorn State/Grambling State and Southern/Jackson State. The semifinals are Friday and the championship is Sunday. No school has a RPI higher than 236, so this is certainly a one bid league.
Summit League - Friday's semifinals have South Dakota State playing Western Illinois and IUPUI taking on North Dakota State. The championship is Sunday and will be the only bid here.
Sun Belt - After some upsets in the quarterfinals yesterday, No. 8 seed Arkansas-Little Rock plays No. 4 seed North Texas while No. 6 seed Arkansas State takes on No. 2 seed Denver in today's semifinals. The championship is Saturday for the league's only bid.
West Coast - The league's automatic bid goes to the regular season champion. That will be on the line, Friday when Portland plays San Diego. Portland is in contention for a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament. San Diego is 12-5-2 and came into the week at No. 43 in the RPI. Santa Clara is at No. 14 in the RPI and could garner a top 16 seed.
Western Athletic - The six-team tournament begins today. Nevada plays New Mexico State and Boise State meets Fresno State. Top seed San Jose State and No. 2 seed Utah State each have a bye into Friday's semifinals. The championship is Sunday for this one bid league.

When it comes to national polls, one thing is consistent, inconsistency. As mentioned in yesterday's blog, the Cougars moved up from No. 22 to No. 19 in the Soccer America poll after defeating Idaho 3-0 last Friday in the season opener. Apparently, that domination of the Vandals was not impreissive to the voters in the National Soccer Coaches Association of America poll. WSU opened at No. 21 in the preseaosn poll, but fell to No. 24 after a WIN! For good measure, the Cougars were not ranked in the preseason or this week's Soccer Times polls, but are among those receiving votes.
In other news, WSU Head Coach Matt Potter will take part in the Cougar Chats Series on wsucougars.com at 5 p.m., Wednesday. For more information and to participate, Click Here
The Cougars began their run to a second-straight postseason appearance with an impressive 3-0 victory over Idaho at home last Friday. Freshman Brandi Vega scored the first goal of the match in the 18th minute of her collegiate debut.
Senior Kiersten Dallstream and Tiara Pittman added goals in the 30th and 33rd minute, respectively to account for a three-goal advantage that stood up as the final score.
Washington State was rewarded in the Soccer America poll and is up three spots to No. 19 this week. The Cougars continue their nonconference schedule at the Colorado College Invitational in Colorado Springs, Colo. WSU plays Syracuse at 12:30 p.m. Pacific, Friday and takes on host Colorado College, Sunday at 1:30 p.m. Pacific.
Welcome to another season of Washington State women's soccer, and not just any season, but the 20th Anniversary campaign for the Cougars.
The Cougars are nationally-ranked in the preseason after making a NCAA Tournament appearance a year ago. They open their season tomorrow against Idaho at Lower Soccer Field. Game time is 3 p.m. Enough about the present and the future, let's talk about the past and the best place to start is at the beginning.
In history, Sept. 3, 1989 does not spark memories of historical battles or great achievements. But for the Washington State soccer program, there may not be a more important date. It was a sunny afternoon in Pullman when the Cougars played the first intercollegiate women's soccer match in school history and downed visiting Whitworth 4-1.
Vicki Day (1989-91) was the star that day. After Whitworth took a 1-0 lead, Day netted the equalizer in the 25th minute and assisted on Sara Gagnon's game-winner two minutes before intermission. Day added a pair of goals for a hat trick, one of 11 in the WSU record book, and seven points, still fifth-best in school history. How about that for a debut?
Day went on to score 10 goals and tally 25 points in 1989. Those numbers are tied for eighth and alone in ninth, respectively on WSU single-season lists. As for the Cougars, they were 10-6-1 that season with all but three matches being played against in-state opponents.
Lisa Fraser was a pioneer in the program as the first head coach for the Cougars. The 10 wins in 1989 began her trek to a then-school record 52 wins in her career. Her win total was a school record that stood until last season when current WSU mentor Matt Potter moved to the top of the list with 55 victories.
So, when you think about Cougar soccer today and where the program is going tomorrow, don't forget to take a moment and recognize the people from the past who helped make it possible.
You can be a part of Cougar Soccer's 20th Anniversary Season by attending a celebration dinner, Sept. 25 or by making a donation to Cougar soccer. For more information, Click Here or by contacting Cory McCoy at 509-335-0343 or email@example.com.

ZF-9797: Zend_Markup_Parser_Textile is unusable
Zend_Markup_Parser_Textile is in an unusable state I'm afraid. Using it in a production environment with real users writing real comments/articles wreaks havoc :(
Sample text; "Hi!"
Expected output: "
Resulting output: "
The exclamation mark is stripped. This problem gets worse if you have something like this.
Sample text: "Hi! Check out "this link":http://google.com. Yay!"
Expected output: "Hi! Checkout this link. Yay!"
Resulting output: "
Hihttp://google.com. Yay" alt="google" />
- -
Also, Zend_Markup_Renderer_RendererAbstract has a call to $this->removeDefaultTags(); in the constructor. No such method is defined in Zend_Markup_Renderer_RendererAbstract or in Zend_Markup_Renderer_Html.
- -
Was Zend_Markup supposed to be production ready? If not, my apologies for misunderstanding the situation!
It looks like all the tags in the {{$_simpleTags}} property suffer from this.
The check for tags only searches for 1 occurence (not enclosed tags).
$textile = Zend_Markup::factory('Textile');
echo $textile->render('Hi!');
echo $textile->render('!Hi');
echo $textile->render('Hi*');
echo $textile->render('*Hi');
echo $textile->render('Hi! Check out "this link":http://google.com. Yay!');
Hihttp://google.com. Yay" alt="google" />
Could I ask if there's a status update on this since May? I'd really like to use Textile in my app (preferably Markdown but I just need some sort of formatting).
If it helps here is a www.textism.com/tools/textile/?sample=2" rel="nofollow">great sample you can use for testing.
I am also interested in Textile. Now I am forced to use native implementation from http://textile.thresholdstate.com/.
Are there any plans on this issue?
27 oct the last update, changed from major to critical... if critical bugs take this long to fix, how long does it take to get major issues to be fixed?!
Please people, FIX THIS ASAP, this way the textile parser is realy not a viable option to use...
Besides the obvious bug this issue describes... there is more:
This page allows you to see what is supposed to be possible using textile, but something basic as ==== and notextile. are unknown to the parser ...
This renders it just about unusable...
How is it possible that Zend_Markup_Parser_Textile, in this state, has made it to a stable ZF-release?
My recommendation is that unless someone steps up to fix this component for v1.12 it should be removed
On the grounds that no-one has volunteered to fix this. I have removed Zend_Markup_Parser_Textile from trunk (25156) and release-1.12 (25157).

Redshirt Junior Matt Milner
July 19, 2012
IRVING, Texas - East Carolina graduate Kimmy Cummings and rising junior Matt Milner have both been selected as the Conference USA Scholar Athlete-of-the-Year for their respective sports, according to an announcement Thursday by league commissioner Britton Banowsky.
The C-USA honor is presented to the top student-athlete in each conference-sponsored sport. The award is based on academic achievement (grade-point average), athletic success and service. Scholar-athletes were selected from Conference USA's 12 institutions and 20 sports (combining indoor and outdoor track & field).
Cummings is the second ECU women's soccer athlete to take home the honor following Nicole Moore in 2009, while Milner is the first Pirate football player to earn the Scholar Athlete Award sharing honors this year with Houston's Case Keenum.
Since the award first began during the 2005-06 academic year, 10 Pirates have been named C-USA Scholar Athletes-of-the-Year with former volleyball standout Heidi Krug becoming the only two-time winner (2006-07) for ECU. Other Pirates include: Sarah Virginia ('06), Michelle Williams ('07), Hannah Priest ('08), Kelley Wernert ('08), Abby Bools ('10) and Toni Paisley ('11).
Cummings, who earned team MVP and Most Valuable Offensive Player honors, became the first-ever Pirate to garner First-Team NSCAA All-Central Regional honors and closed out her four-year career leading the team in goals (9) and points (22) on her way to First-Team All-Conference USA honors in 2011.
One of three team captains, she was named one of 20 Players to Watch in C-USA by TopDrawerSoccer.com in 2011 and against Old Dominion posted the first of two multi-goal games when she became the first Pirate since Meghan McCallion (2004) to record a hat trick in the Pirates 4-1 victory over the Monarchs.
During her career with the Pirates, Cummings started 38 of 78 career games scoring 15 career goals, dishing out 11 assists and recording 41 points - all ranking among the Top 15 in school history.
A native of Mechanicsville, Va., Cummings graduated summa cum laude in May with a bachelor's of science in business management, marketing and management information systems. Her 3.921 GPA earned one of 12 C-USA Postgraduate Scholarships as well as honors on the Dean's List, the C-USA All-Academic women's soccer team, Capital One/Co-SIDA Academic All-District Team and NSCAA Academic All-America Team.
Milner became the first Academic All-America selection in the history of the Pirate football program when he was named to the Capital One Academic All-America Second-Team back on Dec. 8, 2011.
He picked up his initial Capital One Academic All-District First Team selection and second C-USA All-Academic Team award last fall. The Raleigh native has earned three C-USA Commissioner's Academic Medals and been placed on the C-USA Commissioner's Honor Roll three times. He was the football program's Jerry T. Brooks Academic Achievement Award winner for the 2010 season and is a six-time ECU Chancellor's List honoree.
Within the East Carolina chemistry department, Milner was one of the 2010 winners of the Merck General Chemistry Achievement Award, which is presented to the top students who have gone through the CHEM 1150/1160 General Chemistry Track. He was among six chosen from approximately 600 students based on grade-point average and results of the American Chemical Society's first semester general chemistry standardized exam.
On the field, Milner is a two-year starter who played in all 12 games during the 2011 campaign. He booked 37 tackles, the third most among Pirate linemen, including four stops for lost yardage and a half sack. During Conference USA action, he tallied 25 hits with eight solo tackles.
For his career, Milner has totaled 84 stops with 28 solo knockdowns. He has collected 11.0 TFL and 3.5 sacks in addition to six quarterback hurries, three fumble recoveries and two pass breakups.

HUNTINGTON BEACH – Police on Thursday arrested a 15-year-old suspected of throwing glass bottles at police officers and tipping over portable toilets during the disturbance that erupted on Main Street after the close of the U.S. Open of Surfing Sunday night.
The Huntington Beach teen, whom police would not identify because of his age, was arrested on suspicion of assault on a peace officer, felony vandalism, inciting a riot and refusing to disperse when ordered, police reported.
He was taken to Orange County Juvenile Hall, according to police.
Police also announced Thursday they are seeking the public's help in finding two good Samaritans who were assaulted in what many in the community are calling a riot.
Huntington Beach police posted photos on the department's Facebook page of two men they say were attacked as they tried to help the situation.
Thousands of people descended on Main Street after the end of the surfing event and fights broke out in the area. Police said several people toppled portable toilets, damaged city vehicles, set fires, and vandalized and burglarized a local business.
Police have made eight arrests in the disturbance.
Illario Niko Johnson, 18, of Chino pleaded not guilty on Thursday to one felony count of arson of another's property and one misdemeanor each of inciting riots, participating in a riot, unlawful assembly and refusal to disperse when ordered, according to the Orange County District Attorney's Office.
His bail is set at $20,000 and the next court hearing is scheduled for Aug. 9.
Chase Scott Christman, 19, of Simi Valley pleaded not guilty Tuesday to felony vandalism, one misdemeanor count of inciting a riot and one misdemeanor count of refusal to disperse, court records show.
The other arrestees have not yet been charged, according to court records.
Police continue to look for information and ask those who can identify the victims in the photos or have any other information to call 714-375-5066 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Cuisine Unlimited teams up with Camp Kostopulos
With the beginning of the school year comes the opportunity to teach my favorite cooking classes. It's is a series of hands-on classes we conduct in our kitchens at Cuisine Unlimited for teens and adults with disabilities in conjunction with their activities at Camp Kostopulos.
Our goal is to teach skills to assist with socialization and independent living. I love teaching these classes and those who attend are absolutely amazing. Menus include teaching basic kitchen skills and food safety as well as nutrition. The students all prepare an entire dinner, and at the end of the evening, we sit down together to enjoy what we have made. We always include an entrée, salad or vegetable and dessert, all prepared by the participants.
At the end of the series of classes, students are given chef jackets as a graduation gift from us. This past year, Biz Wear Uniforms donated all the chef jackets and we had the students' names embroidered on them. Many of us in the hospitality industry participate in many worthwhile community events. I just wanted to share one of my favorites with you.
Maxine Turner is the president of Cuisine Unlimited and contributes monthly blogs about food, catering, trends and more to saltlakemagazine.com.

A public hearing will be held this month to give county residents an opportunity to comment on the final design of a new public park planned for development just southwest of Seaford.
The 7 p.m. meeting at the Nanticoke Senior Center, 1001 W. Locust St. in Seaford, on Feb. 21 will include a presentation of several options for the design of the 20-acre park off of Woodland Road.
The park will be created on a portion of the former Woodland Golf Course, which the county purchased in 2010 in preparation for the Nanticoke River dredging project, which concluded this month.
The remaining 21 acres of the former golf course is being used to hold the roughly 86,000 cubic yards of deposit material dredged from the river to deepen the main channel from 9 to 12 feet.
Preliminary designs for Woodland Park, based in part on public input, were presented to the county last summer. Those plans called for a low-impact park that would feature a natural wildlife setting and trails for biking and walking.
For more information, please contact the Sussex County Engineering Department at (302) 855-7381.

I get plenty of emails asking for suggestions on how to throw a "Cuban-themed" party. I encourage those of you with ideas to post them on the board, those of you with additional questions, please join in and ask!
You're now at my site (online since 2001): http://www.tasteofcuba.com
Useful links: Cuban Food Market (online Cuban grocery store)
Useful links: The Cuban Store (online Cuban clothing and party supply store)
Here's a question from the old forum:
I want to know if you guys have any ideas on how I can decorate my party.. My theme is Havana Nights.. please let me know of any ideas you may have. Thanks!!
And here was the response from culinary expert Sonia:
First of all....where do you live?
Do you have tropical greenery available?
Hibiscus blooms would be nice.....
Bongo drums, maracas, straw sombreros (not Mexican sombreros and definitely no Mexican sarapes)
A Cuban Flag.......
Clothing should reflect the 1940's and 50's years
Have men order guayaberas to wear
I would recommend reading books about Cuba - by Cubans, to get a feel for the people, culture, food and music
Read several Cuban cookbooks
Do a search for Cuban parties on the internet
Some Cuban products: sugarcane, tobacco, coffee, and rice; it also has rum distilleries and fish canneries.
Lots of tropical fruits: Coconut, pineapples, sugar cane, oranges, mangoes, mamey, papayas, cherimoya, anon, etc.
Here are some more ideas:
But instead of the Mexican margaritas...serve Cuban Mojitos!
Serve a good seviche!

I see a tremendous number of hits to this particular e-mail and yes, Cuban-themed parties are HOT.
I live in Miami so it is easy to get many things here that are related. I do have some suggestions for all who might read this going forward.
Here are some suggestions: Domino theme - Black and white table setting, i.e., contrasting tablecloth/napkins, with dominos thrown about can be an attractive way of decorating.
You can also have a domino tournament for fun. Another great game to play is one that is called "Mentirosa" and I am sure you will come accross it looking through the internet. It is probably approx. $40.00 but I guarantee once you learn how to play it, you'll be hooked. Its a dice game with a lot of "bluffing", and a lot of fun!
There is a Cuban store in Miami called Sentir Cubano and they have a website and they also have a web "Cuban Market", where you can literally order food items, cuban groceries, gift baskets, and many other products, including, the music you will need for your party, etc..
If you can get areca palms at your local Home Depot, do so and place lots of them everywhere; they look charming with white Christmas lights on them,too.
You can also dress your buffet table with khaki-color burlap for a very cuban look and get cuban coffee (demitasse) cups and place tea candles in them, with coffee beans thrown about as decoration.
Also, look up maracas and purchase plastic maracas at a party favor place, people love to participate in the music and dancing.
If you can find banana leaves, even in plastic or silk from a local store such as Linen & things, use them as place mats or chargers under your plates or platters.
Cubans also enjoy pork rinds and banana chips that you can serve with drinks as munchies.
Flan is a must recipe for your desert. Try it with a spoon of dulce de coco over it (its shredded coconut in heavy syrup that I am sure you can get through the cuban food market I mentioned through www.sentircubano.com. OR, you can make a cheesecake and top it with guava mermelade, also through same site, hopefully.
Cubans also make little rolls of a slice of sweet ham with swiss cheese in it and top off with a stuffed olive and toothpick as appetizers.
I think if someone out there wants to know more you need to tell us where you are and what type of access you might have to Cuban markets or restaurants so we can make further suggestions.
Hope these "off-the-cuff" ideas helped. As I think of more, I'll post them.

Hola Joel
I was amazed at the amount of hits these two last postings have!!!!!
I encourage anyone with good ideas for Cuban themed parties to share them with others......There are already some great ones here.
I can't remember now where it is, but a year or so ago when we first started talking about this, I mentioned a source for copies of 'retro' Cuban posters.
You can find some in eBay also

There are definitely a good number of vintage Cuban posters on ebay, they seem to be pretty hot collectibles. There are also some available at www.MyCubanStore.com among other sites.
One thing I realized that nobody mentioned was the music to play. While there is a great deal of contemporary Salsa or classic Salsa albums from Cuba that you could find, I think nothing would set the mood and tone of a Cuban themed party like a good Perez Prado compilation (or Benny Moré!).
The Cuban Originals Perez Prado CD is filled with his most memorable Mambo tracks, its an amazing CD - Click Here to see the album and tracklisting. To listen to Sabor A Mi, Mambo No 5, and especially Que Rico El Mambo is to take a trip back to the 1950's.

Joel, believe it or not, I'm not the only Cuban living on the Big Island of Hawaii.....there are more of us here. A couple of years ago we planned a get together and we met at the home of one of the members who lives halfway between the two sides of the island, so one one had too awfully long to drive.
We all brought food - a Cuban potluck! - and I took a huge rice cooker and a huge pot of black beans. Everyone brought something typical.
One of our group is a Cuban man married to a Mexican and another friend is a Puerto Rican married to an American, but she joined us and said that when we all got together she was a Cuban aplatanada.........and she made platanos tachinos.
The American husband of another Cuban woman living here has a juicer for making guarapo (sugar cane juice) and the mojitos were made with guarapo, lime juice and yerba buena (spearmint) and of course, rum.....
There were 21 of us there and we had a ball and there are still some that could not join us....of course, not all are Cuban as there are spouses of other nationalities among the group....and their American born children, but when we get together we are all Cuban!
We are hoping to plan a Nochebuena for the entire group. Maybe we can pull it off this year.

Readers respond to the October issue.
The Pelosi Debate
Any magazine that finds Nancy Pelosi ["The Most Powerful Woman in U.S. History"] worthy of any type of space other than a news/current events item no longer has my interest, or my business. This woman is an example of every stereotype we fought in the 60s and 70s to be taken seriously. The woman is an over-the-hill bimbo who needs a rich husband and a Messianic president to look the least bit substantial. Which she most assuredly is not.

I've been told repeatedly since I moved to SLC, "You can't plant until after Mother's Day." It's a difficult truth to swallow, but this year it was a good rule to follow. I have lots of friends who put in their gardens during that false spring a couple weeks ago - since then, we've had hail, snow and sleet, and not just once. And it looks like we're going to get more this weekend.
Nevertheless some people just can't keep their hands out of the dirt. You know who I'm talking about: Wasatch Community Gardens.
This Saturday, April 30, from 9am until 1 pm, community members are invited to build boxes for a brand new community garden in downtown SLC. Then on Saturday, May 7, from 1 pm until 4pm, they'll fill those boxes with soil for the new Artspace Community Garden at Artspace Rubber Company (353 West 200 South)
Artspace Community Gardens is a community garden project in downtown SLC that is a collaboration between Artspace, Wasatch Community Gardens and local neighbors and community members. Surrounded by tall buildings and concrete, Artspace Community Garden will be a true oasis in them middle of the city, and the only known community garden in downtown. The garden will primarily serve residents of Artspace and the surrounding neighborhood, a low-income area of SLC. It's a typical project for Wasatch Community Gardens - it's been providing the community the opportunity to grow their own food in urban gardens for over twenty years. WCG provides gardening space at five different gardens, runs youth gardening education programs, offers consulting help for groups to start new community gardens and numerous volunteer opportunities, and hosts over 30 educational workshops and community events, including the great Tomato Sandwich Party at the end of summer.
Also on May 7, from 8 a.m. until 1 p..m., WCG will hold its annual plant sale, a much-anticipated event, at Rowland Hall. Herbs, heirloom tomato plants and other vegetable plants, edible perennials, water-wise and Utah native plants will be for sale in a festival atmosphere with live music. It will be a fun event, even if you're not a gardener. Heck, it might even convert you. If you bring a friend who's never been to the sale, you get a free two-inch tomato, herb or vegetable plant. And if Mom's a gardener, this is the perfect place to pick up a present for Mother's Day.

My favorite easy summer appetizer and a real crowd pleaser, too. Better still, about this mushroom appetizer recipe? It's also low-cal and low-carb!
When I launched the new collection of easy summer recipes, this easy appetizer recipe -- just two ingredients! -- was exactly what I had in mind. It's not just easy, it's a hit!
The recipe (if you can call it that) comes from a great cook, especially on a Big Green Egg smoker-grill. He wraps them in foil packets and cooks for an hour or more.
Happy accident, when I made the mushrooms for the first time since last year, oops, no foil. So I used a cast iron skillet and honestly, that's my go-to way to cook these mushrooms now and forever.
Time to table: about 30 minutes
Serves: about 8
- 1 pound fresh mushrooms, washed and trimmed
- 16 ounces Italian dressing, regular or low-fat or non-fat (any ol' cheap bottle of Italian dressing will do)
In a large heat-proof skillet, arrange the mushrooms in a single layer. Cover with the Italian dressing. Place on a hot grill with the lid closed for about 25 minutes, stirring after 15 minutes. To serve, place in the center of the table with skewers on the side. Enjoy!
Stovetop Option: I've also cooked the mushrooms on the stove, when the grill is busy with the main course. They're good, just not 'quite' as good as cooked on the grill.

Baseball is back! In this episode of the Sports Card Radio Prospect Podcast I preview the 2012 Stockton Ports Minor League team. Some top players include catcher Max Stassi and pitcher A.J. Cole. One of my favorite players returns to start the season back in Stockton, CA - Twitter star Rashun Dixon. I breakdown all the hitters which includes Miles Head who was acquired in a trade from the Boston Red Sox.
Some of the players on the 2012 Stockton Ports Roster are new to me and I will focus more on them in later episodes. But several players I saw a great deal of in 2011 and I talk about what skills they have. Those players include Stassi, Dixon, Michael Gilmartin, Josh Whitaker, Myrio Richard, Petey Paramore, and Connor Hoehn. Check back for future podcasts as I will be going to all the Ports home games!
