Glenavon's Gary Hamilton just too hot for Donegal Celtic to handle
Published 15/12/2010
Donegal Celtic 1 Glenavon 4: A Gary Hamilton-inspired Glenavon moved Marty Quinn's men ever closer to the top six and pushed a hapless Donegal Celtic further towards the trapdoor at Suffolk Road last night.
The former Northern International tortured the Hoops, capping off a virtuoso display with a cheekily chipped penalty in the 57th minute to help the Lurgan Blues cruise to a 4-1 win.
He had a hand in all that was good about Glenavon's display during his 77 minutes on the pitch, starting in the 18th minute when he set up Mark Miskimmin to put the visitors in front.
Glenavon were pegged back in the 36th minute when top scorer Paul McVeigh converted a penalty after Ciaran Muir was clattered by Andrew Plummer.
But just when the home side thought they had done enough to stem the tide, they were caught dithering in defence in the 43rd minute.
A watching backline failed to close down Miskimmin, who was given time to cross to the unmarked Trevor Molloy, and he had the simple task of nodding the ball into Brown's exposed net.
There looked to be more misery to come when Hamilton netted in the 45th minute but his effort was cancelled out after referee David Malcolm spotted a foul in the build-up.
But that didn't matter because soon after the break Glenavon — and Hamilton in particular — ran amok.
He bagged the third from the spot 12 minutes after the restart and Gareth Walsh put the seal on victory when he made it 4-1 in the 65th minute, the midfielder stealing in to nick the ball from the advancing Declan Brown.
This allowed Hamilton to take a well-deserved early exit 13 minutes from time but by then Celtic had been well and truly beaten and condemned to a 14th league defeat in 20 games.
Donegal Celtic: Brown, Gargan, McAllister, O'Hara, McMenimen, Cleary, McNamee, McVeigh, Bradley, Muir, Henderson. Subs: Harbinson, Glenholmes (Henderson 77), McCaffrey, Madden, Curran (Cleary, half-time).
Glenavon: Plummer, Shannon, Magee, Walsh, Molloy, King, Miskimmin , Harper, Haughey, Turkington, Hamilton. Subs: McDonagh, Harpur, Grant (for Hamilton 77), Costello (Miskimmin 80), Stewart.
Referee: David Malcolm (Belfast).

In the past women were told to limit their caffeine intake, but new research is suggesting that pregnant women should avoid caffeine altogether.
Scientists now say drinking more than 200 milligrams of caffeine a day can double a woman's risk of miscarriage - that's the amount in a cup and a half of coffee.
Experts believe caffeine is difficult for the fetus to handle and can lower blood flow to the baby.
"What's different about this study is that it shows that, that a fairly low level of caffeine may be associated with miscarriage. And that's important," said Dr. Tracy Flanagan, director of Women's Health at Kaiser Permanente.
Doctors say women should try to avoid caffeine for at least the first three or four months of pregnancy.

If you are relaxed on the other hand, straight weaves make the most sense as you won't have to constantly manipulate your leave out hair to get it to blend with a curly weave. Again I would advise caution with picking the perfect texture to match your relaxed hair.
Go for the 'relaxed texture' weaves offered by some companies or at the very least yaki with low to medium luster (shine) depending on your relaxed hair's texture.
Silky Caucasian hair does not match relaxed afro hair and I have seen many a relaxed lady literally cook her hair with flat irons daily trying to make her the hair blend. You will save yourself a whole lot of hassle and breakage if you pick the right texture to begin with.
Washing Your Hair Underneath The Weave
I have already offered my tips on how to make a weave look as natural as possible in a couple of articles here and here so now it's time to look at how to take care of your own hair underneath the sew in.
The basic idea of hair care with a weave is to stick as close to your normal regimen as possible while making an effort to prevent build up. That means your normal wash day applies as do your normal moisturizing duties.
The most important thing to remember when washing your hair with a weave is to dilute all your products. This is where an applicator bottle becomes invaluable. They are dirt cheap, you can pick them up from most beauty stores and they make your wash day so much simpler!
Essentially you mix a small amount of your shampoo with plenty of water. You want to end up with a pretty runny mixture that you can easily get on your scalp and hair underneath.
Conditioning is done the same way, EbonyCPrincess below prefers a thicker mix of 75:25 conditioner to water ratio I prefer a 50:50 ratio. I suggest you test to see what works best for you.
Here's ECP's demonstration of how to wash your hair while in a weave:

"Modernist In/Hospitality"
The period stretching from the 1870s to the mid 1920s was marked by a sharp increase in global interactions. The rise of transnational political projects, culminating in the foundation of several international institutions and events, testifies to the emergence of a new global consciousness concomitant with the modernist period. This dynamics was experienced first hand by many modernists, whose life and works bear the mark of different languages and cultures. This panel seeks to investigate modernist productions (in literature, music, visual arts, theater, architecture etc…) in the light of their engagement with boundaries between cultures, spaces, languages, and forms. Modernist works constitute spaces of interaction and in/hospitality, be it linguistically, textually, or culturally. I invite paper proposals that study the modalities of these contacts. Possible topics include linguistic and cultural translation, untranslatability, the cosmopolitan and the vernacular, liminality, hybridity, gender/sexuality, avant-garde experimentation. Papers interested in interactions between Western and non-Western languages and cultures are particularly welcome. Please send 250-word abstracts and short biographical note to Edwige Tamalet Talbayev (email@example.com) by 3 May 2009.

Thomas R. McClure, 75, of Malvern, a retired executive who started the McClure Group direct marketing firm in his bedroom and turned the business into one of the nation's top-earning direct marketing agencies, died Friday of brain cancer while traveling en route to hospice care at Neighborhood Health Inpatient Hospice in West Chester.
Mr. McClure and his firm were the TV production team behind commercials featuring an elderly woman who had fallen and couldn't get up, and former Eagles coach Dick Vermeil touting the virtues of Independence Blue Cross health insurance.
For more than 10 years, the Valley Forge-based company helped develop a series of direct marketing campaigns that used celebrity spokesmen, snappy tag lines, and printed materials to make a sale.

WASHINGTON — U.S. employers have yet to start hiring aggressively — a trend the Federal Reserve will weigh in deciding this month whether to slow its bond buying and, if so, by how much.
Employers added 169,000 jobs in August but many fewer in June and July than previously thought, the Labor Department said Friday. Combined, June, July and August amounted to the weakest three-month stretch of job growth in a year.
The unemployment rate dropped to 7.3 percent, the lowest in nearly five years. But it fell because more Americans stopped looking for work and were no longer counted as unemployed. The proportion of Americans working or looking for work reached its lowest point in 35 years.
All told, the report adds up to a mixed picture of the U.S. job market: Hiring is steady but subpar. Much of the hiring is in lower-paying occupations. And many people are giving up on the job market in frustration.
The jobs picture is sure to weigh heavily when the Fed meets Sept. 17-18 to discuss whether to scale back its $85 billion a month in Treasury and mortgage bond purchases. Those purchases have helped keep home-loan and other borrowing rates ultra-low to try to encourage consumers and businesses to borrow and spend more.
David Jones, chief economist at DMJ Advisors, said he still thinks the Fed will begin slowing its bond buying later this month. But he suspects the August data and the reduced job totals for June and July will lead the Fed to trim more gradually than it would have otherwise: The Fed could start reducing its monthly purchases by $10 billion rather than $20 billion.
Jones said he expects periodic reductions of $10 billion between now and mid-2014. At that point, Chairman Ben Bernanke has said the Fed expects the bond buying could likely end.
The revised job growth for June and July shrank the previously estimated gain for those months by 74,000. July's gain is now estimated at 104,000 — the fewest in more than a year and down from a previous estimate of 162,000. June's was revised to 172,000 from 188,000.
In the past three months, employers have added an average of just 148,000 jobs. The average monthly gain for 2013 so far is 180,000, slightly below the 183,000 average for 2012.
Stock prices shifted between gains and losses early on as investors weighed the job report's impact on the Fed and tensions over the prospect of U.S. military action against Syria. The Dow Jones industrial average ended slightly down Friday.
One possible concern for the Fed is that most of the hiring in August was in lower-paying industries such as retail, restaurants and bars. This continues a trend that emerged earlier this year.
Retailers added 44,000 jobs in August. Hotels, restaurants and bars added 27,000. Temp hiring rose by 13,000.
In higher-paying fields, the report was mixed.
Manufacturers added 14,000, the first gain after five months of declines. Government, which has been a drag on job growth since the recession ended more than four years ago, gained 17,000. It was the biggest such increase in nearly a year. The increase was all in local education departments. Federal employment was unchanged, and state government lost 3,000 jobs.
Auto manufacturers added 19,000 jobs. Americans are buying more cars than at any time since the recession began in December 2007. Some of the jobs also likely reflected workers who were rehired last month after being temporarily laid off in July, when factories switched to new models.
But construction jobs were unchanged in August. And the information industry, which includes high-tech workers, broadcasting and film production, cut 18,000 jobs. The biggest losses were in the film industry.
The report contained some other positive signs: Average hourly earnings picked up, rising 5 cents to $24.05. Hourly pay has risen 2.2 percent in the past 12 months. That's slightly ahead of the 2 percent inflation rate over the same period.
The average hourly work week ticked up to 34.5 from 34.4, a sign that companies needed more labor. That can lead to larger paychecks.
The modest jobs figures contrast with other recent data that suggested that the economy could be picking up. For example, reports from the Institute for Supply Management, a trade group of purchasing managers, showed that manufacturers expanded at the fastest pace in more than two years last month.
And service firms grew at the quickest pace in more than eight years, the ISM found.

While Kirby Hocutt has only briefly met Pat Knight, the incoming Texas Tech athletic director had high praise for the outgoing men's basketball coach.
"I only had the chance to meet with Pat briefly, but everything I hear from basketball coaches and those in college athletics across the country is that he's a first-class individual," Hocutt said. "I have not heard one negative word about Pat Knight. People speak of him in the highest regard."

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Texas Tech junior forward Robert Lewandowski injured his right shoulder Wednesday night when he hit the floor early in Texas Tech's 88-84 loss to Missouri.

Ah, the power of social media.
As word broke Monday that Pat Knight and his staff had been fired, I began to wonder what Knight's former players thought of the move. On a whim, I send a Facebook message to Dark Cohadarevic, who was a starting forward last season when Tech was ranked in the AP Top 25 and advanced to the NIT quarterfinals.
Even though Cohadarevic is playing professionally in Greece, he said he still keeps in touch with some of his former teammates and has followed the team's results.

Texas Tech basketball player Mike Singletary was named the Big 12 Conference Player of the Week on Monday.
Singletary led Tech in back-to-back wins at Iowa State and against Oklahoma State. That helped Tech put together a three-game winning streak and move from 12th place in the conference into a tie for seventh.
He had 33 points, 10 rebounds ans six assists against the Cyclones, becoming the first player in Big 12 history to finish with at least 30 points, 10 rebounds and five assists in a conference game. Tech won that game 92-83.

Remember at Big 12 Conference media days when Pat Knight showed so much confidence in the Texas Tech basketball team's ability to surpass expectations and make the NCAA tournament? He had good reasons for that faith, of course, with six seniors and a team that showed much promise during last year's NIT run.
After Tuesday's loss at Oklahoma, Knight talked about showing all that confidence, while worrying the season might unfold just as it has.

Bean Willis and David Tairu are expected to return to the Texas Tech lineup for tonight's game against New Mexico.
Willis was suspended for last week's game against UT-Arlington after failing to meet Texas Tech's academic requirements. Coach Pat Knight said last week he expected Willis to clear up his academic issues during the team's one-week break for the Christmas holiday, and said Wednesday that Willis should play tonight.
Tairu will also play for Tech. Tairu suffered a mild concussion early in last week's game and left the main court for most of the game.
Will someone that attends the game please count the number of warm bodies in the arena and report? THANKS.

Your exuberant mood may encourage you to share your joy with others today. Perhaps you feel that by expressing your delight you are actually in a state of spiritual union with others, and the more joy you pass on, the more joy will manifest in the world. Doing a loving-kindness meditation today could make it easier for you to create this feeling of happiness and oneness with others. If you can, take a few minutes to sit in silence and watch your breath. With each inhalation, you might picture the energy of the universe filling your heart center. On each exhale, imagine that you are sending this love-filled energy to the people in your life. Connecting your heart to others in this way could help you deepen your sense of connection with others and fill your interactions with love.
Loving-kindness meditation is a powerful tool that allows us to share the unlimited and unconditional love of the universe with others. When we let this form of energy course through us we begin to see that there is little that truly separates us from other people—our oneness becomes much more apparent. Creating this bond of love therefore enables us to be honest and loving in all of our interactions, and this nurtures greater respect and affection for those who are special in our lives. By visualizing the connection of universal energy and love binding you to others today, you will extend the power and strength of your joyfulness to those you care about.

How Canada's TD Bank Is Invading U.S. Market
Toronto-Dominion Bank has quietly launched an assault south of the border, hungry for growth opportunities that have dried up in its home country.
Canada's second-largest bank by assets now has 1,285 retail branches in the U.S., compared with 1,131 in Canada. TD's retail-banking unit is the 10th-largest in the U.S., bulking up with four takeovers last year that deepened its reach in Florida and pushed TD into North Carolina and South Carolina.
Some analysts expect TD Ameritrade Holding Corp. AMTD -1.72 % , the online brokerage firm that is 43%-owned by TD, to bid for E*Trade Financial Corp. ETFC -1.80 % That could deliver yet another boost to the Canadian bank. TD declined to comment on the possibility of a takeover bid.
On Monday, TD announced an agreement to buy Bank of America Corp.'s BAC -2.77 % MBNA Canada, the fourth-largest credit-card issuer in Canada, for C$7.5 billion (US$7.64 billion) in cash, or a 1% premium above the portfolio's book value.
As part of the deal, TD will assume C$1.1 billion in liabilities. The purchase, expected to be completed later this year, will more than double the bank's outstanding credit-card balances to C$16.7 billion, or about US$16.9 billion.
Given the U.S. economy's struggles, TD's expansion is risky. Still, the U.S. is a tempting growth market for Canadian banks, since their home country has a saturated retail-banking market with no opportunities to consolidate because of government restrictions on big bank mergers.
The pressure of slowing economic growth has intensified recently, with low Canadian interest rates triggering a borrowing binge. Canadian household-debt levels are now above those in the U.S. That has many economists and analysts warning Canadians may be tapped out, threatening to slow retail-banking growth opportunities.
TD moved cautiously into the U.S., acquiring in 2004 a 51% stake in Banknorth, based in Portland, Maine. TD bought the entire company three years later. In 2008, TD paid $8.5 billion to acquire Commerce Bancorp, of Cherry Hill, N.J. In April, TD completed a $6.3 billion acquisition of U.S. auto lender Chrysler Financial Corp.
TD's acquisition of Commerce was initially jeered as poorly timed. But the deal now is an example of how the bank hopes to tap the U.S. market and wring more profit out of its recent purchases there.
Commerce was a convenience-oriented lender, bent on getting customers in and out quickly with ample branch hours. That resembles the "8-to-8, six days straight" service model of Canada Trust, which TD acquired in 2000 and renamed TD Canada Trust.
Ed Clark, TD's chief executive, said an 18-month integration effort at Commerce puts TD in position to win more market share along the East Coast. "If we did nothing more than what we've done now and just exploited the organic, in-place opportunities, I'd be a very happy camper," he said.
TD's branches in the U.S. still aren't nearly as profitable as those in Canada, but executives hope to narrow the gap by boosting sales of everything from checking accounts to mortgages. The growth potential eases the pressure for more acquisitions, Mr. Clark said.
Greater New York City, for instance, boasts a deposit base just shy of $1 trillion, about two-thirds the size of the whole of Canada. TD Bank is now fifth by deposits in that retail-banking market, with a 3.6% share. Mr. Clark wants to be No. 3 in four or five years, without new acquisitions.
His strategy is rooted in U.S. community banking, including extending banking hours and opening branches on Saturday and, in some states, on Sunday. But the Toronto-based bank is also pushing its U.S. branches to rev up so-called cross-selling—for instance, marketing mortgages or other financial services to plain-vanilla checking account holders. TD is tying a portion of compensation to those new product sales.
By targeting mortgage lending, Mr. Clark said he can capture new customers neglected by U.S. banks still shell-shocked from the American housing bust. "In the U.S. today, people with great credit scores and sitting on houses that are not going to depreciate dramatically cannot get mortgages," he said.
Branch employees now spend 30% more of their time selling products compared to last year, said TD Bank's Fred Graziano, head of regional commercial banking. In the first six months of the year, insurance referrals have more than doubled from the year-earlier period, and store employees sent more than 17,000 referrals to TD Ameritrade, he said.
But TD Bank has ceded some ground in terms of customer satisfaction. Last year, it lost Commerce's coveted top ranking by J.D. Powers and Associates for customer satisfaction in the Mid-Atlantic market, dropping to No. 5. TD has moved back up in this year's survey, now ranking No. 3.
"They have challenges that typically come with acquisitions," said Lubo Li, J.D. Powers' senior director of financial services.
TD says it doesn't think its efforts at selling more products will detract from the customer experience. "As much as we love the service end of the business and want to own that space, we actually want to own the sales and service space" as well, Mr. Graziano said. "And, that's being driven from Canada."

I'm soon ready to start cutting out my 42" Eagle. I was planning on adding ailerons with the tips angled up. I think I'll pass on that and leave the wings flat with the ailerons...or perhaps just a tad bit of dihedral in the tips to they don't look perfectly flat. What motors are people using on the 42" version...mostly I'm looking for preferred kV and prop size.
I'll be interested to know how the ailerons work for you. I can probably cut the tips off mine an reattach them straight, but I'd rather no until I know it will help.
Another try with my FFF Eagle
I made some changes on my FFF Eagle and did a test fly yesterday. It made a huge improvement in the way it flys. It will turn to the right much better. Maybe not a quickly as to the left, but a big improvement. I thought I would post the changes and maybe it will help others with similar problems.
I set up the eagle on my building table and leveled the horizontal stabilizer carefully. The wing was not level with the horizontal stab, but was higher on the left wing. My quick fix was to cut out the wing seat on the left side of the fuse about 1/8 of an inch. I also gave the motor more down and right thrust. It now has about 4.75 degrees of down and maybe 3 of right thrust.
When I went to fly, I made sure my batteries were as far forward as possible thinking that the CG was too far to the rear. After the first flight with a 2s 800mAh battery, I taped a weight to the top of the eagle's head. That seemed to improve the flight. I also tried a 3s 800 mAh battery ( heavier ) in the nose and it did help some, but still wants to climb on over about 1/2 throttle. It had lots of power to cruise around and would probably make a great combo as at 1/2 throttle the battery should fly for a long time. I wonder if I can mix in a little down elevator with increased throttle with my computer radio?? It works fine to give a little down elevator when increasing throttle. It is surprising to me how much zip the eagle has with the "Blue Wonder" motor! A full fuse, a 42" wing with up to 3 layers, some wood reinforcements, paint, etc. and still lots of zip with a 8 inch prop.
I am posting a video of my first flight with a the 2s battery. It is a unedited flight. I did take out some passing dump truck noise and put some nice music in the background.
A great improvement over my last flights, but maybe some more down and right thrust would be good to try. After looking at the video I had another idea. When the airplane is level the motor seems like it could be mounted higher in relation to the wing. Also the wing tips are not at right angles to the wing. As they go back they come in closer to the body. This is what the plan shows, but I am thinking that may cause some drag toward the top of the airplane. With that drag and the motor hanging below the drag.....maybe that relationship would cause the airplane to want to climb under lots of power...what do you think?
If I were to build another FFF Eagle I might try to change the following. 1. make the neck a little longer to get the motor out farther for balance 2.Raise the head a little on the plan to make it closer to the level of the wing. 3. Bend the wing tips so they do not cause drag on the wing. These 3 ideas are not from any knowledge of flight...just a gut feeling.
Oh well, it is fun to try different things and see what happens. The design does make a fun flyer and looks great in the air.
Let me know what you think!
Great looking plane Ray!!!
You may laugh but it might fly better flying faster. We tend to slow planes down to near stall, especially some designs like the birds, and then we wonder what is wrong.
To shift the CG forward on the Peregrine I replaced the BW1300 with a BP21 rather than adding weight. they both fit in the same motor mount. I did it for the weight but love the power. It's cool having a bird that will do vertical performance. It really freaks out the eagles and hawks.
I have friends trying to get me back into flight school to study the left stick on my transmitter and how to use it. Hey what's wrong with WOT. If you got it why not use it.

Pingwin doesn't actually take off vertically although it can be launched at a fairly steep angle. One other launch technique is to hold it by the scruff of the neck and toss it forwards and upwards. There should be a video of it up before too long.
After using both a 2s with 9" prop and a 3s with 8" prop, it is fun to have the extra power. I can only use it on loops, but it is quick at that. I need to learn how to do a little throttle/elevator mixing with my Futaba computer radio.
I just saw a video of another Eagle out of EPP....looks interesting. Here is the link: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/member.php?u=56749 Maybe we could talk him into adding some information to this thread. His seems to be a fast bird!
We are in the process of updating the Peregrine Kit.
As many of you know we also cut flying wings for combat. Ever since we started this design I have kept picking up one of the combat wing cores and putting it on the fuselage and trying to make it fit. After a great deal of frustration we designed a new cutter and modified the airfoil and now have a wing that has a thicker wingtip. We are building and almost ready to fly the first prototype. This will make the plane particularly good if you want to knock down a building and should also slow it down for all you folks that don't fly like a maniac.
I wish I could find a variation for the front mount motor. I would put the motor in the back if I could figure out how but there seems to be a tail back there.
I was out flying in the wind yesterday and had a smaller falcon or hawk tracking me when I was flying one of the flying wings. I landed and took off with the EPP Peregrine and he came in fast at first. I thought we would have an attack on the plane but after I did a steep climb out and some loops and rolls he had had enough and headed out. I like it when the birds fly with my plane. There are a lot of seagulls around here and they don't appreciate the EPP Peregrine.
At last a flying wing version of the Falcon?
If you have an idea for a flying wing that looks like a bird post some drawings and I will see if we can figure it out.
Maybe EDF? jp

NBA Owners' Committee Votes Against Kings Move to Seattle
(NEW YORK) -- It looks like the Kings will remain in Sacramento after all.
An NBA ownership committee unanimously voted against moving the Sacramento Kings to Seattle. A formal vote of all 30 NBA owners is scheduled for May 13, but according to sources the full body is expected to ratify the recommendation of the seven owners from the relocation committee.
It was just a few months ago that it seemed the Kings were destined to relocate to Seattle, but Sacramento mayor Kevin Johnson put together a strong counter-proposal that wound up winning over skeptical NBA owners.
Johnson took to Twitter after the committee's recommendation was announced. "That's what I'm talking about SACRAMENTO!!!!! WE DID IT!!!!!," he wrote.
Sacramento has funding and government approval to build a new downtown arena to be open in 2015 or 2016.

Survival analysis based on a nationwide study of patients in Israel with gallbladder cancer revealed a relatively better survival in two subgroups: (1) patients with a localized tumor at operation and (2) patients with papillary adenocarcinoma. Further breakdown demonstrated that these two factors are interrelated, ie, patients with papillary adenocarcinoma have a relatively higher frequency of localized tumors. Consequently, the group of localized papillary adenocarcinoma of the gallbladder had a median survival extending beyond five years after diagnosis as compared with one month for the total group.

Hot Dish! 12 Gratins, Bakes, & Casseroles from The Kitchn
mentioned last week that I am just finishing up my first cookbook, which is all about fresher, more modern casseroles. As I developed and tested recipes I became very impressed with the range of flavors and convenience that casseroles offer. I honestly wasn't too much of a fan of baked casseroles for most of my life, but now I have serious respect for the little old casserole. Yes, there are lot of terrible casserole recipes out there, and I do avoid most dishes involving canned soup, but there is also serious possibility in layered, baked dishes. Here are a few that we've enjoyed, here at The Kitchn. Some are still quite indulgent, like the sweet potato gratin and the lasagna. Others are attempts to really lighten up and freshen up the traditional hot dish. See the potato kale gratin and the lighter mac and cheese. TOP ROW • 1 Just as Good! Lighter Mac and Cheese Casserole - Review of a gooey, chewy, but lighter mac and cheese. • 2 Broccoli Casserole - Creamy, cheesy, and no canned soups required. • 3 Mushroom Casserole from 101 Cookbooks - Another review, this time of Heidi's very inspiring mushroom casserole with wild rice. • 4 "Ham and Cheese" Breakfast Casserole - Egg, sausage, cheese, bread. • 5 Kale and Potato Gratin - Simple, delicious, and light. MIDDLE ROW • 6 No-Boil Chunky Cheese Lasagna - Slightly quicker lasagna. • 7 Chicken (or Turkey!) Pot Pie - A classic savory pie. • 8 Shepherd's Pie - Quick and easy, and topped with leftover mashed potatoes. • 9 Potato, Squash, and Goat Cheese Gratin - A reader favorite! • 10 Nicole's Spinach Lasagna Roll Ups - A quicker version of manicotti (no little tubes to stuff!) BOTTOM ROW • 11 Sweet Potato and Sage Gratin - Rich and melting, with a kick of spice to balance the sweetness. • 12 Tiramisu Bread Pudding - A great dessert casserole!

Creaky knees, it seems, is a prerequisite for being a franchise quarterback for the Jets. Joe Namath had them, and so does Mark Sanchez.
After visiting noted orthopedic surgeon James Andrews on Wednesday, Sanchez is weighing the option of having an elective surgical procedure on his left knee that would stabilize his patella ligament, according to someone familiar with Sanchez's trip to Birmingham, Ala.
The person requested anonymity because Sanchez has not yet decided whether to have surgery.
If Sanchez has the surgery, he could be sidelined up to two months, meaning he would miss a portion of the team's offseason conditioning program, which begins in March. Organized Team Activities (OTAs) start in early May.
As a young quarterback, the offseason program and the OTAs would be beneficial to his development. Missing them wouldn't be a major setback, but it wouldn't help.
Sanchez, who was encouraged by the team to visit Andrews, is expected to make a decision soon. He would likely rehab at the team's complex in Florham Park.
Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum wouldn't reveal details of Sanchez's condition. But he stressed the decision to have the elective surgery is strictly up to Sanchez and the quarterback would be ready well before the start of training camp in July.
"You don't want to have anybody missing any time, especially a young quarterback," Tannenbaum said yesterday during a season wrap-up news conference, "but we'll balance it out with a medical procedure that may give him more stability there and give him a chance to play without any worry about that."
In a strange twist, Sanchez doesn't need surgery on his right knee. He suffered a sprained posterior cruciate ligament on a head-first slide in a 19-13 victory over the Bills in Week 13 in Toronto that sidelined him for one game. Andrews and the Jets' medical staff agreed the right knee needs only rehab.Sanchez injured his left knee in college, dislocating his patella ligament in August 2008. He also suffered a bone bruise on the knee. He has worn a brace ever since. This season, Sanchez tweaked the knee several times.
"I think everyone's on the same page," said Tannenbaum. "No decision has been made if he'll have a procedure. I would just say there may have been some small tweaks along the way but if there's any procedure, it won't be anything significant."
Despite his knee problems, Sanchez played his best football down the stretch as the Jets (11-8) earned an improbable playoff berth and advanced to the AFC Championship Game before losing to the Colts, 30-17.
After throwing 20 interceptions during the regular season with a 63.0 passer rating, he threw just two picks in three playoff games. In the postseason, he completed 41-of-68 passes for 539 yards, four touchdowns and a 92.7 passer rating.

Costa Rica RECOMMENDATIONS See all
City Guide to Montezuma, Costa Rica
By Paige, Nicaragua, August 2012
The reason why Montezuma has been overlooked all these years, is because it's relatively time-consuming to visit; it's not attached by paved road to the more popular Guanacaste beaches like Tamarindo and Papagayo, so most travelers take a ferry across the Golfo de Nicoya from the mainland. It's worth the trip, however, for the magical feeling that you've escaped back into the Costa Rica of yesteryear.

Last offseason basically took place in the month of August. With the lockout in a prevent defense, teams were unable to make any moves.
Once the lockout was over, the chaos that engulfed the league was unprecedented. Teams had to fill in their rosters in the days prior to and during an abbreviated training camp.
After suffering through the lockout prior to this season, the 2012 offseason will seem long and drawn out. It will only seem that way. I've ranked the top 50 moves that will keep the offseason moving at a fast pace.
Let's see how fast you are at clicking the mouse and keeping up with these moves.

If all you do with your Android phone or tablet's keyboard is tap out words, you are missing a lot of great features. There's more to learn about a keyboard than you might expect.
I prefer spellcheckers which only flag typos as opposed to auto correction spellcheckers, while the latter may be faster at first, learning how to correctly spell words is faster in the long run.
Ofc everyone makes typos from time to time but spell check flagging allows you to catch and correct those mistakes whereas auto correct simply glazes over the problem.
Been glazin' over that problem since the 1st. grade back in '44 when I prophetically told the teacher "When I grow up I won't have to know how to spell". Thank Goodness for auto spellcheck.
On our complains for not having a good handwriting, my daughters grade-1 teacher replied: Don't worry, with advancements in technology, these kids might never have to write.
I think that day is not far away.
Not good. Already I'm the only one in class who can spell certain words, and we're in 7th.
not quite sure on the auto correct idea... but I like the little things like, offering words your spelling, or double tapping space puts a . and then a space after the last word, and the auto capital at the start of sentences.

This thread has been very timely for me, as it has encouraged me to get back to where I started with paleo/primal.
When I started, it was on similar macro ratios with the exception that I've been around the 1.5 multiplier for protein all along.
Right from the first week I experienced the high energy, mental alertness and weight loss. 6ft male, went from 88kg and 97cm trousers to 77kg and 87cm trousers in 3 or 4 months.
But then I increased my work load at the local non-paleo gym, and got involved with a group of non-paleo hikers. It was about this time I started hanging around the paleo forums as well, which as we know can be fraught with danger. Between these influences, and starting to plan some high altitude treks, I started fiddling with my carb and fat levels to the point where I started losing track of where I was at in terms of strength and vitality. And also felt confused on how to get back to where I had been.
So as of yesterday I'm back to @ 100-120gm P sub 50gm C and @ 300gm F

Fat 2 Fit - One Woman's Journey
I just wanted to jump in and say thank you so much Paleobird for starting this thread! I've been following it for the past few days since you started it, and it's been very helpful to me.
I can't eat eggs (make me nauseous) and so for the past couple of months, I've gravitated toward salami type meats and/or cheese for breakfasts (kind of a European thing I'm finding). I usually can't eat much for breakfast (steak, or tuna salad, or whatever) it usually makes me feel ill. But in the past I've been able to eat 300-350 calories in sliced meats and cheeses and I've felt good. Also, I've usually been trying to leave the carbs for the evening so that it doesn't spike my insulin too early in the day.
So anyway, this thread kind of crystallized things for me. Helped me realize that for me, like so many others, a more ketogenic way of eating, really is better for me. Perhaps my body had been trying to tell me this for months? I've adjusted my macros accordingly to up the fats and drop the protein even further.
So thanks for starting the thread! We'll see how things go moving forward.
Edit: Oh, and thanks to the person who posted the chocolate coconut milk pudding recipe! I've been looking forward to trying it ever since you mentioned it!

Synthetic Identity Theft
|Email Print
A few years ago, I discovered an error on my credit report where an extra social security number (off by one digit), a new home address, and a phone bill had been added to my report. I was able to get the information removed after jumping on a few hoops but it really opened my eyes about the weaknesses in the credit reporting system. To use a bit of database-speak, I always figured social security number was the primary key for each report – meaning it was unique to each report. If someone requested a report using an incorrect social security number, why would the bureau grant it? It's because that makes the lending process easier and because the bureau doesn't have to answer for its mistake. Enter, synthetic identity theft.
Synthetic Identity Theft
Synthetic identity theft is a special type of identity theft. There are two versions of synthetic identity theft. The first is where the thief rebuilds your identity using bits of information from different sources. They rummage through your trash and find a canceled check, they call your place of work and find out your telephone number, they snatch your mail and grab a 1099-INT the bank mailed you. They don't get everything all at once, but piece by piece they put it all together. This type of piece-meal ID theft, while scary, isn't as scary as the second type.
The second type of synthetic identity theft is where the thief steals only part of your identity and merges it with other information for use in places where the checks aren't as stringent. They may use a name that's similar to yours in connection with part of a social security number plus your address. To be honest I'm not entirely clear how they go about doing this because I'm not a synthetic identity thief! However, the thought of someone being able to do this, even after you've diligently shredded up documents, is still scary.
Preventing Synthetic Identity Theft
How can you prevent this? By being smart about your identity in a way that protects you against the regular identity thieves. First, put up a solid defense by implementing my do-it-yourself identity theft protection ideas. Then, follow the tips the SEC provides to prevent identity theft and review the FTC's site on identity theft.
Beyond that, there are a few other places you can check like your social security report. Each year, about three months before your birthday, the Social Security Administration sends you a little booklet indicating your benefits. One of the pages will list your income each year, check that the number is accurate. Extra income could be a sign that someone has stolen your identity to get a job. If you don't correct it, you could be liable!
Lastly, fix every last mistake you see in your report, even if it improves your score! I once had a credit card that had an average revolving balance of $5,000, way more than I typically spend in a month, and had it removed. You want your credit report to accurately reflect you as a borrower. Even the smallest errors, like an incorrect address, should be addressed because it could explode into something much bigger.
I wouldn't go as far as signing up for an identity theft program, unless you want to use their services, because they don't necessarily add anything you can't do yourself. I reviewed Lifelock and found the service to be good, if you didn't want to do things yourself. Remember, those packages are service packages and insurance packages, they don't offer anything you can't do yourself (ahh, the classic trade of time vs. money).

Corvallis and Hamilton met in the opening game of the tournament and the first-game jitters were evident in both teams as they combined for only eight points in the first quarter.
"I thought both teams really struggled to get their legs in that first quarter," said Corvallis coach Joe Jessop.
But the Blue Devils went to their inside game and with junior Jayce Gilder driving to the basket, or dishing outside, they began to get control of the game. Gilder finished with 17 points.
Hamilton kept chipping away at the Blue Devils. Teague Blome, who was 100 percent from three-point land, hit a huge trey to spur a bit of a rally midway through the third quarter. Josh Heath followed that up with a bucket and Kameron Kohn converted off a Blue Devil turnover on an inbounds pass to pull Hamilton back within five points at the buzzer.
Corvallis' Chaney Waldo hit a trey to jump-start the Blue Devils in the fourth quarter. Jessop said Waldo's point production was needed in the win.
"That three that he hit was big. They were kind of sagging off of us," he added.
The Blue Devils then went on nine-point run and went on to win. They sank 22 of 27 free throws and pulled down seven more rebounds than Hamilton did.
"Free throws," said Jessop. "This whole tournament is probably going to come down to free throws."
Kohn had 18 points to lead the Broncs. He also had 10 rebounds, and three blocked shots. Josh Bauder added eight points.
Corvallis 56, Hamilton 42
Corvallis– Alma Powell 6, Jayce Gilder 17, Chaney Waldo 10, Brigham Parish 11, Andrew Leopold 6, Chase Jessop 3, Austin Bankston 3.
Hamilton – Josh Heath 6, Kris Cleveland 1, Teague Blome 6, Kameron Kohn 18, Ty Burt 3, Josh Bauder 8.
It was an emotional game for the Corvallis Blue Devils against the Dillon Beavers and those emotions got the best of the Devils. They were hit with four technicals in the game. The first technical put an end to a rally midway through the first quarter after Brigham Parrish had hit a trey and another field goal. Dillon then went on a six-point run. Corvallis made a couple more runs but were unable to stop the Beavers and fell, 59-38.
"It wasn't a game that we were proud of as far as our emotions. That's not us," according to Jessop. "But you know the kids, they laid it all out there. Sometimes when you lay it all out there, it's hard to get it all back."
For much of the second quarter and a good portion of the third, starters Jayce Gilder and Alma Powell sat on the bench in foul trouble. But even with them sitting on the bench, the Blue Devils played a tough defensive game. The Blue Devils won the rebounding in the first half but had 17 turnovers. Corvallis made one more run at Dillon midway through the third quarter but was hit with another technical, their third, and the momentum swung to the Beavers for good.
The Blue Devils then had to play Anaconda on Saturday morning in loser out action. Coach Jessop said his team regrouped from the earlier loss and played a great game. Brigham Parrish had 16 points and Alma Powell added 14 more. Corvallis won, 63-45.
That win sent the Blue Devils to the consolation match against Butte Central. After sinking the first basket, the Blue Devils played catch up for the first half. Whether it was tired legs from the morning game or trying to be more composed, Corvallis didn't have the edge they had against Dillon on Friday. Both teams were tired.
Kale Guldseth hit a couple of key treys for the Maroons in the first quarter to give them some momentum while Brigham Parrish was cold from beyond the arc. The Blue Devils were held to only two points in the second quarter but rallied back to score 18 in the third. However they were unable to stop the Maroons and fell, 52-41, and finished fourth in the Southwest A.
"Nobody thought at the beginning of the season – there wasn't a coach, another player, another school, another town – everybody picked us dead last and our boys made a commitment. They worked hard in the summer. We're going to be back and we're going to be better than we were this year. That's the commitment that we're making at Corvallis. These boys sacrificed time to do that and it shows," concluded Jessop.
Gilder finished with 16 points and Parrish had 13 for the Blue Devils.
After losing to Corvallis, Hamilton had to take on Butte Central. The Broncs lost, 81-53. However the score didn't reflect it, the tough, physical game the Broncs played. The difference, according to coach Toby Stack, was the 10 three point baskets in the first half.
"We spot them 30 points," said Stack. "That was huge."
Butte Central was forced to play their starters much of the second half in order to keep the Broncs at bay. On the line, a trip to the consolation game just four hours later. Both Kameron Kohn, a senior, and Josh Heath, a sophomore, had nine points to pace the Broncs.
Stack said it was hard for the seniors but he was proud of the way they kept their attitudes up and inspired the younger players. "We know we play in the toughest conference in the state, and that we can play with them," concluded Stack.

Twitter's one of the few places you can get athletes unfiltered, which can be a little scary. And hilarious.
Each morning we'll throw up a few weird things athletes are talking about on Twitter.
"if a stewardess is a cougar, would that be a stewgar or a cougardess?"
Billy Miller has not seen Reggie Bush's career per-carry average:
Last I am so tired of all the @reggie_bush haters, the guy can do things that u can only do in a Madden game, like jump from the 6ydl 4 a TD
Jon Brockman should pick a shorter pregame movie:
Gladiator!!! My
favorite movie of all time! I used to watch it before every basketball

Differing Perspectives on Arizona's S.B. 1070
Comparison of Amicus Briefs Regarding the Anti-Immigrant Law
SOURCE: AP/J. Scott Applewhite
The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments Wednesday in Arizona v. United States, which will examine the constitutionality of Arizona's state-level immigration bill, S.B. 1070. This review is a watershed moment in our nation's history and interested individuals and organizations have filed an array of amicus, or "friend of the court," briefs regarding the case. In all, 23 amicus briefs have been filed in support of the U.S. government in its legal challenge against Arizona's "papers please" anti-immigrant scheme, 21 briefs have been filed on behalf of the state of Arizona, and one brief was filed in support of neither party.
The briefs filed in support of the United States come from a striking range of bipartisan actors from nearly every sector of society: from law enforcement to faith organizations; from mayors to members of Congress; from civil rights and community organizations to lawyer associations; from former Immigration and Naturalization Service commissioners to Cabinet members; from business entities to labor groups; and so on. By contrast, those filed in support of the state of Arizona are notable for their partisan imprimatur and the absence of a diverse set of voices from the communities they represent.
A table prepared by the National Immigration Law Center, or NILC, lists these amicus briefs and the organizations and individuals that joined them. Full copies of many of the briefs in support of the United States can be accessed on the NILC website.

text: DATE=5/23/2000 TYPE=CORRESPONDENT REPORT TITLE=SHUTTLE-SPACE STATION WRAP (L) NUMBER=2-262676 BYLINE=DAVID MCALARY DATELINE=WASHINGTON CONTENT= INTERNET= VOICED AT: INTRO: U-S astronauts and a Russian cosmonaut from the space shuttle "Atlantis" have opened the hatches to the International Space Station -- the first people to visit the outpost in one year. As we hear from V- O-A Science Correspondent David McAlary, they began four days of repair and supply transfers to prepare the station for permanent occupation. TEXT: Astronauts James Voss and Susan Helms and cosmonaut Yuri Usachev floated through five hatches separating the space station from Atlantis. They got a preview of the complex they will inhabit for several months next year as the second expeditionary crew. For now, they are getting it ready for the first inhabitants, later this year, by making some necessary repairs. The last time astronauts visited the station, they suffered nausea and headaches -- presumably because of stagnant air and possibly high levels of exhaled carbon dioxide. So the Atlantis crew reworked ducting to improve airflow. Shuttle Flight Director Phil Engelauf says crew measurements showed that canisters left behind last year to remove carbon dioxide from the air are working well. // ENGELAUF ACTUALITY /// We haven't seen any indications of adverse affects or poor air quality. The conditions that we think we've created with these ducting modifications -- we're optimistic we'll keep the air as good as we can possibly make it in the station. /// END ACTUALITY /// The three Atlantis crewmembers went through their work quickly and got an hour ahead of schedule. They lost no time in pulling up floor panels to replace the first two of four dead batteries on the Russian "Zarya" module. Phil Engelauf attributes the speed of their work to the fact that cosmonaut Usachev had done similar work aboard the Russian "Mir" space station and the movements the crew worked out for themselves during training before this mission. /// ENGELAUF ACTUALITY /// They really worked this down to a science like a pit crew working on a racecar. Everybody knows exactly which pieces they are supposed to do and they have gotten it down to be about as efficient as we possibly could and I think that that's bearing out here on orbit. I think they are going very quickly and I think the crew's choreography in training here is going a long way to help that. /// END ACTUALITY /// Later today, transfers of supplies to the space station will begin in earnest. Before Atlantis undocks Friday, the outpost will receive more than a ton of equipment. Shuttle Commander James Halsell and pilot Scott Horowitz will also conduct the first of three daily jet thruster firings to increase the station's orbit. It has dropped over time because of friction with particles in the upper atmosphere and is too low to receive the next Russian module set for launch in July. It will serve as home for the first permanent crew, expected to arrive in October. (SIGNED) NEB/DEM/ WD 23-May-2000 04:48 AM EDT (23-May-2000 0848 UTC) NNNN Source: Voice of America .

Player of the Game
In what could be his last game as a starter, Shelley Duncan went 2-3 with a double, home run and walk to win tonight's Player of the Game. He earned a total score of 4.68, aided by his two runs scored and the RBI from the home run. It was his highest score since April 15th and the first Indians home run in over a week. With a -4.45, Asdrubal Cabrera had a game to forget about. He went 0-4 without hitting a ball out of the infield and had an error that lead to three unearned runs.
Feathers Up
The removal of Jose Lopez from the roster rather than Aaron Cunningham will allow the Indians to platoon Shelley Duncan and Casey Kotchman at first, with Johnny Damon splitting time with Duncan and Cunningham in left. This will allow the Indians to keep Duncan's powerful bat in the lineup on a daily basis and avoid having Kotchman's.
I rarely have as mixed feelings about a player as I do about Jairo Asencio. He started the season by losing the opening game, but only after pitching two good innings. Since then he's had three good appearances followed by a bad one, then two more average appearances followed by an absolutely terrible inning where he gave up 4 hits and 4 runs. Asencio pitched well again today, but it's impossible to get a feeling on him, whether he will be lights out or get his lights knocked out.
Feathers Down
There must be things that Manny Acta cares more about than winning, otherwise he wouldn't play the back up catcher the day after an off day and move the number 2 hitter down to 7th so the utility infielder could hit second.
Shin-Soo Choo did not make his return tonight as promised. The Indians are claiming that he will be ready to start tomorrow night. Johnny Damon was also left out of the lineup, although he was available to play.
Ubaldo Jimenez still can't throw strikes. He was removed before the end of the fifth inning as he had already thrown over 100 pitches and walked 6 batters.
With bases loaded in the 9th and two outs, Manny Acta showed that he had already given up as he let Lou Marson, who hasn't had a hit in two weeks, bat instead of pinch hitting either Choo, Damon or Jack Hannahan (the team leader in RBI). Somebody should tell Manny that his goal should be to win games, not to play little league coach and make sure everybody gets their playing time.
Play of the Game
In the 7th, Alexis Rios hit a shallow pop to second base where the Indians catcher, Carlos Santana misjudged it, allowing it to fall for an error. This is the play of the game because it exemplifies this game as good as any other. Why was Carlos Santana trying to catch a ball at second? Why did Alexis change his name to Alex? Who is John Galt?
Final Score: Cleveland Indians 2 – Chicago White Sox 7
