Troubled Ryder eyes Black Caps return
Wellington: Troubled New Zealand batsman Jesse Ryder resumed his cricket career Monday, targeting a return to the Black Caps after a tumultuous year that included a drugs ban and a near-fatal beating.
Ryder linked up with his new domestic team the Otago Volts for the first time after serving a six-month ban for testing positive to banned substances contained in a weight-loss supplement.
He aims to play in the Volts` season opener against his former team Wellington Firebirds next weekend, with the longer-term aim of returning to the New Zealand side for upcoming home series against the West Indies and India.
"My main goal is to push for the Black Caps again," Ryder told Fairfax Media. "All going well, I`d like to push for the West Indies tour.
"But, definitely, the main aim is to try and earn a call-up in time for that Indian tour if they don`t pick me for the West Indies tour."
The West Indies play three Tests in New Zealand from December 3 with the Black Caps hosting India in January-February.
Ryder is one of New Zealand`s best batting talents, averaging 40.93 in 18 Tests, but his career has been marred by disciplinary lapses, off-field problems and struggles with his fitness.
The 29-year-old went into self-imposed exile from international cricket in February 2012, saying he needed to sort out his personal issues.
He appeared to be making progress and was set to take up a lucrative Indian Premier League contract in March before he was assaulted outside a bar in the South Island city of Christchurch.
Ryder, who witnesses said did nothing to provoke the attack, was put into an induced coma with a fractured skull and said he was fortunate to be alive.
"We`ve all heard the stories of guys hitting their heads and dying after being punched and falling to the ground," he told Fairfax. "I look back and think I am lucky not to be dead."
Then the doping ban extended his time away from the game, forcing him to train by himself as his new teammates at the Volts prepared for the upcoming season.
The New Zealand Sports Tribunal accepted Ryder was trying to lose weight, not enhance his performance, when he took the over-the-counter supplement, but imposed a ban after finding he should have been more cautious.
Ryder said he felt in good shape, even if there were still some complications linked to the assault.
"The body`s pretty good," he said.
"I`m still suffering a little with the head, you know, just some light-headedness. But that`s slowly getting better. I`ve been training hard and everything`s coming along really well."

This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 147,707, filed May 8, 1980 and now abandoned.
This invention relates to storage stable lubricating oil compositions containing an additive package which provides both dispersant and friction modification properties. More particularly, this invention relates to a formulated lubricating oil composition containing a polycarboxylic acid-glycol ester friction modifier and an alkenyl succinimide dispersant having a reduced tendency to form sediment upon storage.
Lubricating oil compositions which contain polycarboxylic acid-glycol esters as friction reducing components are known in the art and are disclosed, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 4,105,571 issued Aug. 8, 1978 to Shaub et al. The oil-soluble alkenyl succinimide dispersants, particularly polyisobutenyl succinimide dispersants, are well-known and are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,172,892, issued Mar. 9, 1965 to Le Suer et al., and U.S. Pat. No. 3,933,659, issued Jan. 20, 1976 to Lyle et al.
It is known that lubricating oil compositions containing the aforesaid alkenyl succinimide dispersants and polycarboxylic acid-glycol ester friction modifiers offer a number of advantageous properties, however, a problem frequently encountered is the tendency of appreciable quantities of sediment to form upon storage of formulated compositions containing these additives and other conventionally employed additives, especially metal containing additives. The present invention deals with this problem by providing additives found effective in stabilizing such compositions against sediment formation, the stabilizer additives being certain polyol-fatty acid esters or ethoxylated fatty acids, amines or amides.
Shaub et al in U.S. Pat. No. 4,105,571 disclose that incompatibility problems of zinc dihydrocarbyl dithiophosphate and glycol ester friction-reducing components can be resolved by pre-dispersing either component in an ashless dispersant prior to combining them in the lubricating oil formulation; however, Shaub et al do note that formulations containing dispersants based on a reaction product of polyisobutenyl succinic anhydride and polyamine exhibited evidence of storage instability and suggested that an increased amount of dispersant may be necessary to maintain compatibility. The present invention deals with this problem by providing a stabilizer additive found effective in compatibilizing the compositions disclosed herein or enhancing the compatibility of said components.
In accordance with the present invention, there are provided storage stable lubricating oil compositions having a reduced tendency to form sediment comprising:
(a) a polycarboxylic acid-glycol ester friction reducing component,
(b) an oil-soluble alkenyl succinimide or borated alkenyl succinimide dispersant, and
(c) an oil-soluble stabilizer additive being a polyol or polyol anhydride partial ester of a C8 -C22 fatty acid or an ethoxylated fatty acid, fatty amine or fatty amide, in an amount effective to reduce the tendency of said lubricating oil formulation to form sediment.
The term lubricating oil composition as used herein is meant to refer to fully formulated compositions intended for use, for example as crankcase motor oils which contain a number of conventionally used additives in the usual amounts especially oxidation inhibitors, rust inhibitors, viscosity index improvers, such as, olefin copolymers, pour depressants, oil-soluble detergent additives such as the neutral and basic metal phenates, sulfurized phenates and sulfonates, such as the calcium and magnesium sulfurized phenates and sulfonates, as well as the zinc dialkyl dithiophosphates which are useful anti-oxidant and anti-wear additives. It is believed that the metal containing additives such as the normal and basic metal sulfonates, phenates and sulfurized phenates and metal dithiophosphates contribute to the tendency of lubricating oil compositions to form sediment when in the presence of the ester friction reducing components and alkenyl succinimide dispersant. The metal phenates and sulfonates noted above are typically employed in amounts of from about 2 to 5 weight percent and metal dithiophosphates are usually found in fully formulated lubricating oil compositions in amounts from about 1 to 3 weight percent.
The friction reducing esters are generally derived from the esterification of a polycarboxylic acid with a glycol and may be partial esters or diesters of the formulas:
wherein R is the hydrocarbon radical of the acid and R' and R" is either the hydrocarbon radical or an alkane diol or the oxy-alkylene radical from an oxa-alkane diol as defined hereinbelow. The polycarboxylic acid may be an aliphatic saturated or unsaturated acid and will generally have a total of about 24 to 90, preferably about 24 to 60, carbon atoms and about 2 to 3, preferably about 2, carboxylic acid groups with at least about 9 carbon atoms, preferably about 12 to 42, especially 16 to 22 carbon atoms between the carboxylic acid groups. Generally about 1-3 moles of glycol, preferably 1-2 moles of glycol, are used per mole of acid to provide either a complete or partial ester.
Also, esters can be obtained by esterifying a dicarboxylic acid or mixture of such acids with a diol or mixture of diols, in which case R would then be the hydrocarbon radical of the dicarboxylic acid and R' and R" would be the hydrocarbon radicals associated with the diol or diols.
The friction reducing esters are typically used in amounts ranging from about 0.01 percent to 2 percent by weight, more preferably 0.05 to 0.5 percent by weight based upon the overall weight of the lubricating oil composition, more preferably, formulations containing 0.1 to 0.3 weight percent are highly effective.
Especially preferred are the dimer acid ester friction reducing esters. The term dimer acid used herein is meant to refer to those substituted cyclohexene dicarboxylic acids formed by a Diels-Alder-type reaction which is a thermal condensation of C18 -C22 unsaturated fatty acids, such as tall oil fatty acids, which typically contain about 85 to 90 percent oleic or linoleic acids. Such dimer acids typically contain about 36 carbon atoms. The dimer acid structure can be generalized as follows: ##STR1## with two of the R groups being carboxyl groups and two being hydrocarbon groups depending upon how the condensation of the carboxylic acid has occurred. The carboxyl groups can be --(CH2)8 COOH; --CH═CH(CH2)8 COOH; --(CH2)7 COOH; --CH2 CH═CH(CH2)7 COOH; --CH═CH(CH2)7 COOH and the hydrocarbon terminating group can be represented by: CH3 (CH2)4 --; CH3 (CH2)5 --; CH3 (CH2)7 --; CH3 (CH2)4 CH═CH--; CH3 (CH2)4 CH═CH CH2 --; and the like. The dimer of linoleic acid which is the preferred embodiment can be expressed in the following formula: ##STR2##
Also the term dimer acid as used herein necessarily includes products containing up to about 24 percent by weight trimer, but more typically about 10 percent by weight trimer since, as is well known in the art, the dimerization reaction provides a product containing a trimer acid having molecular weight of about three times the molecular weight to the starting fatty acid.
The polycarboxylic acids or dimer acids noted above are esterified with a glycol, the glycol being an alkane diol or oxa-alkane diol represented by the formula HO(RCHCH2 O)x H wherein R is H or CH3 and x is about 2 to 100, preferably 2 to 25 with ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol particularly preferred. A preferred embodiment is formation of the ester with about 1 to 2 moles of glycol per mole of dimer acid or polycarboxylic acid, such as the ester of diethylene glycol with dimerized linoleic acid.
The oil-soluble alkenyl succinimide ashless dispersants are those formed by reacting a polyalkenyl succinic acid or anhydride with a polyalkyleneamine. Preferably the alkenyl group is derived from a polymer of a C2 to C5 mono-olefin, especially a polyisobutylene where the polyisobutenyl group has a number average molecular weight of about 700 to about 5,000, more preferably about 900 to 1,500. The polyamines may be represented by the formula NH2 (CH2)n --(NH(CH2)n)m --NH2 wherein n is 2 to 3 and m is 0 to 10. Illustrative are ethylene diamine, diethylene triamine, triethylene tetramine, tetraethylene pentamine, which is preferred, pentaethylene hexamine and the like, as well as mixtures of such polyamines. These amines are reacted with the alkenyl succinic acid or anhydride in ratios of about 1:1 to 10:1 moles of alkenyl succinic acid or anhydride to polyamine.
The borated alkenyl succinimide dispersants are also well known in the art as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,254,025. These borated derivatives are provided by treating the alkenyl succinimide with a boron compound selected from the class consisting of boron oxides, boron halides, boron acids and esters thereof in an amount to provide from about 0.1 atomic proportion of boron to about 10 atomic proportions of boron for each atomic proportion of nitrogen in the dispersant. The borated product will generally contain about 0.1 to 2.0, preferably 0.2 to 0.8 weight percent boron based upon the total weight of the borated dispersant. The boron is considered to be present as dehydrated boric acid polymers attaching as the metaborate salt of the imide. The boration reaction is readily carried out by adding from about 1 to 3 weight percent, based on the weight of dispersant, of said boron compound, preferably boric acid, to the dispersant as a slurry in mineral oil and heating with stirring as from about 135� C. to 165� C. for from 1 to 5 hours followed by nitrogen stripping and filtration of the product.
These alkenyl succinimide ashless dispersants and borated derivatives thereof are used customarily in lubricating oil compositions in amounts ranging from 0.1 to 10 percent, preferably 0.5 to 5 percent, by weight based upon the total weight of the finished composition.
One category of the stabilizer additives of the present invention may generally be defined as the polyol ester of a C8 -C22 fatty acid, partial ester meaning at least one hydroxy group remains unreacted. Preferably 1 to 3 free OH groups are present such as an average of 1.5 to 2.5 free hydroxy groups. Such compounds are, per se, known in the art and it is only their use as a stabilizing agent in a formulated composition containing both the ester friction modifier and alkenyl succinimide dispersant or borated dispersant derivative thereof which is the basis of the present invention.
Suitable polyols for preparing the ester stabilizer of the present invention are those polyhydric alcohols such as glycerol, diglycerol, and the sugar alcohols, which may be represented in the formula CH2 OH(CHOH)m CH2 OH where m is one to five as well as the polyol anhydrides thereof. Preferred are the esters of glycerol itself, C3 H5 (OH)3, sorbitol and sorbitol anhydride (sorbitan). Esters based upon relatively higher, i.e., C12 -C22, fatty acids or mixtures of fatty acids are more preferable, such as, the tall oil fatty acids. The fatty acids may be saturated or unsaturated. Especially preferred are glycerol and sorbitan partial esters of liquid C18 -C22 unsaturated fatty acids such as oleic, linoleic, and palmitoleic fatty acids and mixtures of such acids.
Ethoxylated oil-soluble fatty acids, fatty acid amines, and amides have also been found suitable for use as sediment-reducing stabilizer additives in the compositions of the present invention. Useful products are those oil-soluble ethoxylated additives of about C8 to C22 saturated or unsaturated fatty acids, amines or amides. The degree of ethoxylation of such products is about 2 to 30 moles, preferably 1 to 5 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of fatty acid, amine or amide, so that the products retain oil solubility. Derivatives of liquid unsaturated C12 -C22 fatty acids are preferred, such as oleic, linoleic, palmitoleic and mixtures thereof, such as the tall oil fatty acids and vegetable oil fatty acids, for example, those derived from cottonseed and soybean oils which contain major amounts of unsaturated C18 fatty acids and which are generally liquid at room temperature.
Of this category, the oil-soluble ethoxylated fatty acid amines are a preferred embodiment including both fatty acid monoamines and diamines, such as, oil-soluble polyethoxylated (1-3 moles of ethylene oxide) cocoamine derived from mixed coconut oil fatty acids (C12 -C15) and tallow diamine ethoxylates (1-3 moles of ethylene oxide) derived from mixtures of predominantly C16 -C18 fatty acids.
The quantity of sediment-reducing amount of additive stabilizer of the present invention which is used in a lubricating oil formulation is best expressed relative to the amount of the ester friction-reducing additive which is present. The broad ratio is about 2 to 20 parts by weight of additive stabilizer per part by weight of ester friction-reducing additive with the preferred ratio being about 2 to 12 parts by weight of stabilizer additive per part by weight of friction reducing ester.
While the method of addition of the stabilizer additive is largely a function of the exact composition of the total finished formulation, it is generally preferable to provide a blend of stabilizer additive, friction-reducing ester and dispersant by admixing same at moderately elevated temperatures, not greater than 150� F., and incorporating this blend into the lubricating oil formulation either prior to or subsequent to the addition of other additives in accordance with blending techniques known in the art.
The lubricating oil base stock employed herein are those customarily used. The term lubricating oil includes not only the petroleum hydrocarbon paraffinic, naphthenic, and aromatic oils of lubricating viscosity, but also synthetic oils, such as, polyethylene oils, esters of dicarboxylic acids, complex ester oils, polyglycol, and alcohol alkyl esters of carbonic or phosphoric acids, polysilicones, fluorohydrocarbon oils and the like. Preferred base stocks are mineral hydrocarbon oils of a paraffinic nature, especially those having a viscosity of about 20 to 100 cS min. (100� F.) and blends of such mineral paraffinic oils.
The stabilizer additives of the present invention are generally effective in substantially eliminating all but traces of sediment when the lubricating oil formulation contains the usually preferred amounts of friction reducing ester component, that is, about 0.05 to 0.3 weight percent and therefore, formulations prepared in accordance with the present invention which contain these amounts of friction-reducing ester component are particularly preferred. For formulations containing more than about 0.3 weight percent of ester component, there will be in most cases a substantial reduction in the amount of sediment observed after centrifuging as opposed to a complete elimination to trace levels.
Lubricating oil formulations were prepared containing the dimer acid ester friction modifier and the alkenyl succinimide dispersant to which were added the sediment-reducing additives of the present invention. The formulation was a standard 10W-SAE quality automotive lubricating oil composition containing a zinc dialkyl dithiophosphate, overbased metal sulfonate, rust inhibitor, and VI improver in typical proportions. At this point the formulation was storage stable with no evidence of sediment formation. To this was added 0.1 percent by weight of a friction modifier being the ester of a dimerized linoleic acid and diethylene glycol and 5 weight percent of the reaction product of 2.1 moles polyisobutenyl (Mn=1300) succinic anhydride (Sap. No. 103) and 1 mole of alkylene polyamine to provide the Base Formulation. The polyamine had a composition approximating tetraethylene pentamine and is available under the trade name "DOW E-100" from Dow Chemical Company, Midland, Mich. Samples (100 ml., calibrated test tube) of this base formulation were centrifuged for 8, 16 and 24 hours at 1900 r.p.m. at room temperature and thereafter, samples containing the sediment reducing additives of this invention were also tested for compatibility by centrifuging under the same conditions. The volume percent sediment was measured on the basis of the sediment observed in a calibrated test tube which contained the 100 ml. samples and the results are set forth in the following Table I.
TABLE I______________________________________Vol. % After Centrifuging 8 hrs. 16 hrs. 24 hrs.______________________________________Base .20 .50 3.00Base + Glyceride Trace Trace Trace(Example 1 and 1A)Base + Sorbitan Ester Trace Trace Trace(Example 2)Base + Ethoxylated -- -- TraceCocoamine(Example 3)Base + Ethoxylated -- -- TraceTallow Diamine(Example 4)______________________________________
0.26 weight percent liquid mixture of mono- and diglyceride of oleic acid, 55 percent monoester, 130 cps. viscosity at 25� C., sold as ATMOS� 300 by ICI America, Inc.
Example 1 was repeated using 0.56 weight percent of the same glyceride with the same results after centrifuging.
1.25 weight percent Sorbitan Monooleate liquid having 1900 cps. at 25� C. viscosity sold as Arlacel� 80 by ICI America, Inc.
1.25 weight percent ethoxylated cocoamine sold as Ethomeen� C-12 by Armak, Inc., 2 moles ethylene oxide per mole, average mol. weight=285.
1.25 weight percent ethoxylated tallow diamine sold as Ethoduomeen� TD-13 by Armak, Inc., 3 moles ethylene oxide per mole, average mol. weight=530.
A formulation was prepared similar to the base formulation, the preceding Examples except that 0.3 weight percent of the dimer acid ester friction reducing component was used. The base formulation showed about a 3.0 vol. percent sediment formation after 24 hours centrifuging. After addition of 1.25 weight percent of the same glyceride of Example 1, the formation was stable after 24 hours centrifuging.
Example 5 was repeated with the same results using the same stabilizer additive in the same amount except that the base formulation contained a borated alkenyl succinimide dispersant prepared by reacting the dispersant of the base formulation with a slurry of 1.4 moles of boric acid in mineral oil over a 3 hour period at 135� to 165� C. followed 4 hours of nitrogen stripping. The final product contained 1.5 weight percent nitrogen and 0.3 weight percent boron and had a Mn of about 3,000.

A fire on Friday at 3:07 p.m. at Creek Bottom Brews on Meadow Street in Galax left a lot of smoke but not much apparent damage and nobody injured, according to Galax Volunteer Fire Chief David Hankley.
The Commonwealth Transportation Board has added two new projects in Carroll County to the Virginia Department of Transportation's six-year plan. These projects include U.S. 52 North spot improvements and Cranberry Road improvements.
The Galax-Carroll-Grayson Animal Shelter will be closed until July 27 due to an outbreak of parvovirus, according to City Manager Keith Barker.
Parvo is a very contagious, life-threatening illness that affects dogs and cats.
There are strains that can affect humans, but these are different from those that pets can catch and carry.
HILLSVILLE — After some citizens had bad encounters with animals, Hillsville is considering an ordinance banning all animals at town events.
The ordinance would still allow service animals.
Council Member Greg Yonce brought up the issue at the July 11 meeting, saying he had been contacted by citizens who wanted a "no dogs" ordinance for the town's monthly classic car cruise-ins.
"That pit bull with a logging chain on it scared a lot of people," Yonce said, referring to an animal that was at the July cruise-in.
An existing moratorium on city-initiated annexations and county declarations of immunity from annexation has been extended to 2024, thanks to legislation passed during the 2016 Virginia General Assembly session.
According to a report issued by the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development, the law affects independent cities like Galax and surrounding counties, but not townships.
HILLSVILLE – The Carroll County Circuit Court has unsealed additional indictments from the June 20 meeting of the grand jury.
All the indictments were for drug-related charges:
• Danielle Lee Martin, of Hillsville, has been charged with possession of a Schedule II drug (methamphetamine)
• Nicole Leann Alderman, of Cana, has been charged with possession of a Schedule II drug (methamphetamine)
Staff Reports
A two-vehicle accident at Hanes Road Trailer Park in Galax left one man with minor injuries on July 4 at 1:47 p.m., according to a report logged by the Officer John Reavis of the Galax Police Department.
Lorne Pernell Linville left his residence in the park in a yellow 1997 Ford F-150 pickup and traveled west through the park. The report said he had a seizure, which caused the pickup to accelerate and run out of control.
Due to the state's overestimation of this fiscal year's budget, the school system's dreams of expanding positions and giving raises out of state funds will be put on hold this time, according to Galax City Schools Superintendent Bill Sturgill.
Instead, the Galax School Board will have to rework its budget to pay for the raises with local funds.
HILLSVILLE – Carroll County Fire and Rescue is under a state police investigation involving missing or mishandled drugs, according to the sheriff's department.
According to Carroll County Sheriff J.B. Gardner, his department was contacted by Interim County Administrator Nikki Cannon to request an investigation involving Carroll County Fire and Rescue.
FRIES ― New and returning members of the Fries Town Council were sworn in by Grayson County Circuit Court Clerk Susan Harrington during the July 7 meeting.
Those re-elected in May include Richard Farmer, William Davis, JoAnn Gunter, Nancy Hawks and Marie Isom. New member Cynthia Grant and returning member Gary Sumner (who served in several aspects in the past, including mayor), were also welcomed at the meeting.
At the end of the meeting, council voted on appointments for mayor, vice mayor and clerk/treasurer.

Blogging Our Real Bodies
Laurie and Debbie say:
Fitness Magazine is not where one would usually look for positive body image articles, but this one. which centers on BlogHer and quotes Laurie, is both good and interesting. (Of course, we would prefer that it wasn't surrounded on all sides by swimsuit models with muscular navels.)
BlogHer.com has seen an explosion of interest on the topic of body image. "Since July 2007, we've added 151 new blogs to our site relating to women's bodies," says [Lisa] Stone [co-founder of BlogHer]. "Ten years ago, you'd read an occasional comment on a message board in reaction to a model's photo in a magazine: 'Am I the only one who thinks real women don't look like this?' But garnering critical mass was difficult. The expansion of the Internet makes it easy to share these feelings." Think of the Web as a virtual watercooler: In a country where 64 million people are obese, as many as 10 million suffer from eating disorders, and untold others feel inadequate every time they drive past another airbrushed model on a highway billboard, it was high time there was an outlet for the emotions surrounding women and body-image issues.
The perceived anonymity of the Web -- even when sharing something as intimate as a photo of your body -- has allowed thousands of women the safety to say what they really think. As the trend grows, body-image Web sites have become more specialized. In 2006, Bonnie Crowder, 30, launched The Shape of a Mother, uploading an image of her post-baby body -- stretch marks, folds, and all -- in an effort to support other women who'd recently given birth. "The post-pregnancy body is one of society's greatest secrets," Crowder wrote on her Web site. "Sure, we all talk about sagging boobs, but no one ever sees them. It is my dream to create a Web site where women of all ages, shapes, and sizes can share images of their bodies so it will no longer be secret."
[picture not available]
We're all for body pride, but really, who the heck has the guts (or exhibitionist urge) to post a picture of herself in her birthday suit online for the whole world to see? "The answer I get the most -- and it resonates with me personally -- is, 'I am tired of feeling embarrassed about the way I look,'" says Suzanne Reisman [pictured above], 32, founder of a blog about feminism and other topics. "Women feel under assault from images that don't look anything like them, and the online community offers an opportunity to say, 'There is nothing wrong with having an average body.'"
Here's an example we found just searching on Flickr. Notice from the caption that model/student Beckie Jones considers this to be an "unattractive" photo, and she posted it anyway. (We would disagree with her assessment.)
The article makes a passing mention of the body image panel which Laurie moderated at last year's BlogHer conference. The same eagerness--even hunger--which the Fitness article describes was evident at that panel. Laurie will be moderating a related panel at this year's conference in San Francisco. The more we are bombarded with images of improbably and impossibly perfect bodies, the more of us feel disenfranchised and invisible. And the web provides the means to (using a phrase Laurie has long used about her work) make the invisible visible.

Marion's Chicken in Honey-Mustard Marinade
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 30 mins
Found this recipe on the website of a German cook named Marion. Though honey and mustard are commonly paired, the addition of orange and dill is new to me. This is an untried recipe posted for the Zaar World Tour.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 1⁄4 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 8 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 8 teaspoons honey
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon orange zest, finely grated
- Pre-heat oven to 375°F
- Wash the chicken breast fillets and pat dry. If one side is much thicker than the other you may want to give it a quick pound with a meat mallet (skin-side down) to even it out.
- For the sauce, mix the Dijon mustard, honey, dill and orange zest in a small bowl, stir well.
- Brush both sides of the fillets with the marinade and bake the chicken for 30 minutes.
- Cut the fillets with a sharp knife on the thickest part, if the juices run clear they are done.
Most Helpful
The recipe worked and the chicken was fine, but it wasn't one of our favorites. I grilled the chicken and also added one clove of garlic.
YUMMY! Just made this for dinner, used a mixture of yellow mustard and spicy brown(because thats all we had)amd left out the orange zest because we didnt have any on hand. Took about 45 minutes to cook. Was a real crowd pleaser and easy to make.
This was absolutely fantastic and my favourite recipe of Zaar World Tour II so far. I misread the recipe and added a bit of orange juice too. I cut the chicken into chunks before marinading and turned them into kebabs with red onion, which I then cooked on "the george". I never knew dill and orange could be so fantastic!

Indian Trail Council against school redistricting
Updated:INDIAN TRAIL, N.C. —
The town of Indian Trail took on the controversial Union County school redistricting issue Wednesday night.
Town officials held a community meeting on a resolution against the plan.
Wesley Chapel and Stallings have already signed similar resolutions.
The school district wants to move almost 6,000 students into different schools to ease overcrowding.
Earlier this week, the board of county commissioners offered to spend $3 million on trailers as an alternative to redistricting.

"It's not often an author gets an unsolicited pre-publication stamp of legitimacy from the U.S. president, much less one who reports on human-rights issues...disturbing in the depth and detail of its evidence." ―Kirkus Reviews, (Starred)--This text refers to the Paperback edition.

In many cases there is an almost comical ironic twist to the politics involved in the sense that the Executive Branch and the CIA seem to blatently ignore and deliberately subvert existing foreign policy in acts that are most accurately described as being cynically pragmatic, which also employ outlaw states such as Syria to use extreme torture methods to ply sensitive information from known or suspected terrorist suspects.Read more ›
Grey also asserts that the U.S. has outsourced "questioning" since at least 1965 (South American Communists); in addition similar activities took place in Central America and Vietnam. President Carter then ceased all such activities, and directed the CIA to promote human rights. However, 9/11 ended that - first came Guantanamo, then stories began to leak out of the CIA working with some of the most repressive secret police in the world (eg. Egypt and Uzbekistan) that also opposed Islamic extremism.
Renditions are described as typically utilizing about 8 men dressed in black and wearing masks; when going to Egypt they would also bring two Egyptian officers - thus, technically the prisoners were never in U.S. custody. The U.S. only provided "taxi service" via small unmarked civilian "ghost planes."
Grey documents 89 renditions, and suspects hundreds more took place. Substantiation is provided by public flight logs, released prisoners' site descriptions matching actual known foreign country secret police settings, scars (on some), and reports from a British ambassador. Techniques included beatings, cuts, drug injections, food and water adulteration, threats made regarding a suspect's relatives, incessant and loud music, 18-hour interrogations, near drownings (eg.Read more ›
Grey has made his case of detailing the flights, passengers, destinations, and outcomes of the "rendition" and extraordinary rendition by our own government. And how the details of delusion of the public were worked out by Gonzalez et al.
This book is well worth reading if you have an interest in how a government can go overboard in trashing human rights--and still get poor results (from torture).
What looks like a formidable read turns out to be riveting and is truly a worhtwhile addition to the support of a better, more open government that is above torture.
The CIA runs a system of clandestine prisons holding thousands of kidnapped prisoners, taken from Iraq, Afghanistan, Bosnia, Croatia, Macedonia, Albania, Germany, Italy, Sudan, Somalia, Kenya, Zambia, Gambia, Pakistan, Indonesia and Malaysia to be tortured in Afghanistan, Jordan, Uzbekistan, Thailand, Syria, Egypt and Morocco. Grey writes, "the foreign torture cells of Cairo and Damascus and the US jails at Guantanamo and Bagram were part of one interconnected gulag in which prisoners were swapped both between countries but also between the CIA and the US military."
Grey asked Edward Walker, US Ambassador to Egypt, "When Condoleezza Rice and the president now stand in front of people and say we don't send people to countries where they torture, are they telling the truth?" Walker replied, "No, they're not telling the truth." A CIA official said, "nothing was done without approval from the White House – from Condoleezza Rice herself."
The Bush and Blair governments talk democracy but support dictatorship. For example, in 2002, the State Department said Uzbekistan 'routinely' tortured prisoners, then gave it an extra $180 million aid. Grey points out that the Blair government connived in the renditions and in the use of torture, by using the 'information' gained from torturing prisoners.Read more ›

Swansea City manager Garry Monk praised his side's resolute display in the 1-0 Premier League victory over Burnley on Saturday.
Nathan Dyer scored the only goal of the match in the 23rd minute and the home team looked good value for their lead for the remainder of the first half at the Liberty Stadium.
However, Burnley came out fighting after the break and Swansea, who triumphed 2-1 at Manchester United last weekend, had to be on their guard to maintain their winning start to the season.
"I knew it would be a tough game," Monk told BBC Sport.
"In the first half, we controlled it, but in the second we expected them to throw everything at us and they did. But you have to applaud our players.
"You have games like that and it's about the attitude of your players and the way they defended was superb, restricting Burnley to one shot on target.
"We matched them toe-for-toe and we defended properly.
"We can improve in many areas, as we didn't pass the ball as well as we can do in the second half, but our attitude and defending was great."
Swansea meet West Brom at the Liberty Stadium next weekend, but must first contend with a League Cup clash against Championship side Rotherham United on Tuesday.

Going fullframe (from 7D): advice
As you have to sell all your Canon lenses, the best advice to give you would be to ask you to rent a Nikon D600 with a Nikon lens.
First, download the pdf manual of the Nikon D600 before. The Nikon D600 manual is available at http://www.nikonusa.com/pdf/manuals/dslr/D600_EN.pdf
And just experience the Nikon D600 for a few days. If you feel that it is not to your liking, then you can always check back a Canon full frame but any full frame except the highly crippled Canon 6D!!!!
But I already read quite a few Canon users who bought the Nikon D600 and who apparently are all in heaven with it so you should surely not be disappointed with it.
The reason why I give you this advice is that the Canon 6D is simply so crippled in features compared to the Nikon D600 and it costs the same price than the Nikon D600 that you would be better off financially to buy the Nikon D600 for the same price!!! More, the Nikon D600 has the best processor on the market along with the Nikon D600 with high dynamic range.
The Canon 6D has such a bad specification compared to the pro-specification of the Nikon D600 that you owe it to yourself to check out first the Nikon D600!!
I know it is kind of sad to say that to a Canon user but the only one to blame is Canon!!
