Meet This Grain: Oatsby Dana Angelo White in Healthy Tips, September 29, 2009
We're all pretty familiar with old-fashioned rolled oats, but there's more to this whole grain than oatmeal.
Oat Options
Rolled oats are the classic choice, but you can also find oats in the form of oat flour, oat bran and my favorite, steel cut oats. Steel cut oats (a.k.a. Irish oats) are shorter, thicker grains; they haven't been flatten or "rolled." You can cook them water just like rolled oats, and they have a nuttier flavor and crunchier texture. Steel cut oats do take a bit longer to cook (check the package for directions), but they're worth the effort. I like to cook them into large oatmeal batches ahead of time and store in the fridge — then I just pop them in the microwave as needed.
Why Are Oats "Healthy Eats"?
One cup of cooked oats has about 150 calories, 3 grams of healthy fat, 4 grams of fiber and 6 grams of protein. Oats also contain iron and energy-boosting B-vitamins such as thiamin, riboflavin and niacin and are especially high in soluble fiber, the kind that helps lower cholesterol when you mix it into a healthy diet.
See why oatmeal made our list of foods that boost brain power.
What To Do With Oats
There are endless morning oatmeal variations (I've been on a cinnamon, blueberry and walnut kick lately), but you can add oats to homemade granola, cookies, pancakes, muffins and snack bars. The oats add fiber, flavor and help give foods a chewy texture. Oat flour and oat bran work well in bread, pancake and muffin recipes. You can even use oats on your skin — many homemade facial masks contain oats to help soothe and moisturize.
Many people ask me if instant oatmeal is a healthy sub for slower-cooking rolled oats and they are; just stick to the unflavored, unsweetened kind. Mix your own flavorings such as fresh or dried fruit or a drizzle of honey or maple syrup. Instant oatmeal cooks up quickly because it's been partially cooked and then dried. It's a time saver, but I like the texture of cooked rolled oats better.
- Recipes to Try:
- Apple Harvest Oatmeal
- Nutty Granola
- Cherry Vanilla Oatmeal
- Oatmeal Peanut Butter Energy Bars
- Steel Cut Oatmeal
- Overnight Oatmeal
- Microwave Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal
- Heavenly Honey and Oatmeal Mask

Avila's walk-off hit gives Tigers series win over Yanks
Lobstein solid in first MLB start; Detroit cuts into KC's division lead
DETROIT -- Kyle Lobstein is, for the time being, a relative unknown pitching amongst a rotation stacked with several of the biggest names in baseball.
On Thursday afternoon against the Yankees at Comerica Park, he fit right in. Lobstein's six solid innings set the table for the Tigers to take the rubber game from New York, 3-2. Victor Martinez doubled through the shift to lead off the bottom of the ninth, and Alex Avila sent the Tigers to a walk-off victory with a deep single off the right-field wall.
"That's as high as you can get," Avila said of his emotions following the dramatic win that pushed Detroit into a tie with Seattle for the American League's second Wild Card spot. The Tigers are also 1 1/2 games behind the Royals after KC's loss to the Twins later Thursday.
The clutch hit capped off a ninth inning that was, as described by Detroit manager Brad Ausmus, a roller-coaster ride. To begin the frame, Derek Jeter took what turned out to be his final regular-season at-bat in his home state. Joba Chamberlain allowed the sellout crowd's appreciation to rain down on the Yankees legend in a brief, poignant moment.
A few minutes later, with two outs and runners on the corners, Brian McCann slapped a shot with home run distance to right field off Phil Coke that narrowly hooked foul. Three pitches later, McCann went down on strikes, breathing new life into the Tigers and ensuring Lobstein's impressive day would not go to waste.
Lobstein struggled with some control problems early in his first Major League start -- and second big league appearance -- but worked through them nicely. One of the two runs scored against him, off only four hits, was unearned. He retired the last eight batters he faced in order -- a day after nine straight Yankees collected hits off Detroit ace David Price.
Though the nerves didn't manifest themselves in Lobstein's stat line, he said they were certainly there -- even after he pitched 5 2/3 innings in relief last weekend at Minnesota.
Still, Avila said the young hurler "carried himself out there as if he's pitched in the big leagues for many years."
"Actually, the first inning was pretty smooth sailing for me," Lobstein said. "The second inning's when it kind of kicked in. I got a little bit of nerves going. Just going out there, just trying to go as deep as I can in the game and pitch to contact, which I did today and I was able to keep us in the game and give us a chance to win."
The 25-year-old left-hander was optioned to Triple-A Toledo following the game but will likely return to the rotation as early as next week.
"Any chance I can get, no matter what the situation is or whatever the role is, I just want to be able to help them out," Lobstein said of his situation down the stretch.
Detroit manufactured its first run in the same manner it has used to produce so many this season -- a sacrifice fly. After Nick Castellanos and Don Kelly each singled in the second, Avila skied one to center than was plenty deep to allow Castellanos to score the game's first run.
New York tied the game in the third -- thanks in part to a Castellanos throwing error -- before going ahead in the fourth. After Carlos Beltran doubled Martin Prado to third, McCann got the job done with an RBI groundout for a 2-1 lead.
But the Tigers knotted things in the bottom of the fifth on an RBI single by Rajai Davis and kept the Yankees at bay with scoreless relief appearances form Blaine Hardy, Chamberlain and Coke, who recorded the game's biggest out with the strikeout of McCann.
The approximately six feet to the right of the Comerica Park right-field foul pole was all that kept McCann from giving the Yankees a 5-2 ninth-inning lead that might have been insurmountable at that point in the game.
"Momentum shifts are big in the game of baseball," Ausmus said. "It's not something you can put a statistic on. It's not very tangible. [But] the emotion in a singular game or over the course of a game can be important. That was a big out."

New laws preventing people from smoking in cars with children as passengers will take effect tomorrow, meaning Victorian kids will start the new year with a breathe of fresh air.
Other new tobacco reforms being introduced from midnight include a ban on the sale of tobacco products from temporary outlets and a power for the Minister for Health to ban the sale of certain tobacco products and packaging that appeal to young people.
Executive Director of Quit, Ms Fiona Sharkie, said the new laws underlined how important it is to protect children from the potentially devastating harms of exposure to second-hand smoke.
"We have laws in place that protect colleagues from second-hand smoke in the workplace, and friends from second-hand smoke in the pub so it makes absolute sense that we now have laws that will protect our most cherished loved ones from second-hand smoke in the car."
"Children exposed to second-hand smoke have higher rates of many different clinical diseases including asthma, pneumonia, meningococcal disease and sudden infant death syndrome."
Ms Sharkie said despite the popular myth winding down the window when smoking in a car does not lessen the harmful health effects.
"Second-hand smoke affects the health of both non-smokers and smokers. There are at least 250 chemicals in second-hand smoke that are known to be toxic, including more than 50 that are known to cause cancer."
Ms Sharkie said these laws, designed to protect young people from exposure to second-hand smoke and prevent them from taking up smoking and would be welcome by the Victorian community.
"There is no doubt the Victorian public embraces legislation aimed at putting kids before cigarettes."
"In fact, research released this year shows more than 95% of all Victorians strongly agreed or agreed that smokefree cars and homes were important in protecting the family from second-hand smoke, while about 3% strongly disagreed or disagreed that smokefree cars and homes were important."
Ms Sharkie said 1 in 10 smokers also strongly agree or agree that smokefree cars and homes are important ways of protecting the family from the harms of second-hand smoke.

To many women, the idea of having phone sex sounds about as comfortable as faking an orgasm over dinner. But for couples in long-distance relationships, phone sex is often the only way to keep a sexual element in the relationship while the two of you are apart. Sandi, a 27-year-old whose boyfriend lives across the world says, "In our months apart, our relationship feels strange because it becomes completely asexual." If your man is far away, or even if you live with him, phone sex is a hot way to spice things up. Here's how to haaaave… ahh… ahh… oh-baby-I-want-you-so-bad! phone sex.
Testing the waters: Quite simply, phone sex is two people talking dirty on the phone while simultaneously masturbating and pretending they're having sex with each other. Bottom line: It takes two to tango. But it's best not to jump into initiating phone sex without testing the waters first. Start by sending him a dirty text and see how he responds. If he writes something sexy back, you've got the green light. If he doesn't respond, or asks if your phone was stolen, you probably have to talk with him about it first.
Getting started: If this is something new in your relationship, take your time finding your comfort zone. "Work up to phone sex," says 25-year-old Nancy, a long distance relationship-er/phone sex aficionado. "Start out by exchanging sexy text messages." With sex texting you have time to think about your response, and see what things feel the most natural for you to say. It's also much easier to text "I want u to lick me" than it is to say that over the phone. With that in mind, having phone sex means you're going to have to feel comfortable talking dirty, saying words like "cock," "pussy" and "tits." If necessary, spend some time saying those words out loud until they feel like a natural part of your vocabulary. And if you really can't stomach them, then just use vague statements along the lines of "Stick it in me." After all, he should know what "it" is as well as where "it" is going. Another option: using body part nicknames that are familiar to both you and your partner.

Defensive lineman's UF career put on hold
Published: Saturday, May 25, 2013 at 8:34 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, May 25, 2013 at 8:34 p.m.
One of Florida's 2013 signees will have to wait until next year to suit up for the Gators.
Scooba (Miss.) JUCO defensive tackle Jarran Reed hasn't completed his AA degree and won't be reporting to UF in late June.
The 6-foot-4, 305-pounder has only attended East Mississippi C.C. for one year and was hoping he could finish early enough to transfer this fall. But things didn't work out in Reed's favor.
"I tried to get it all done," he said, "but there were way too many credits to take in such a short time. I also can't do any online classes because of SEC rules, so that set me back. I have 25 hours left and I'm doing both summer semesters and the fall to finish up."
Reed will play another season at EMCC and enroll at UF in the spring as a junior with two years of eligibility remaining. His letter of intent from February is no longer binding, and he will have to sign another one in December.
Although this means he's now considered a 2014 prospect and his recruitment is reopened, Reed doesn't plan on taking part in the process again.
"I'm still a Gator," he said. "I know where I want to go, I just have to get done with my credit hours. I love Gator country and coach Will Muschamp. I still feel the same way about the school. Nothing has changed."
At this time, the other 19 signees from Florida's 2013 recruiting class are expected to qualify academically and report to campus next month.

ROCKFORD — An abnormally dry summer has depleted pastures earlier than normal and forced horse and small-scale livestock owners to bring their animals into the barnyards. Animals in stables and feedlots, however, create a manure situation which must be addressed, so "the sooner you establish a manure management plan for the winter, the better," said Jay Solomon, energy and environmental stewardship specialist at University of Illinois Extension. Ellen Phillips, local foods and small farms educator, will join Solomon to address manure-related issues at the upcoming workshop, Manure Management for Horse and Small-Scale Livestock Operations.
Manure starts out as a high-quality natural product that can help farmers offset some of their fertilizer costs, but proper storage, management and planning is key to maintaining optimum nutrient value and to reduce possible contamination issues.
"We've had a dry summer, but when the fall and winter moisture returns manure management becomes extremely important," Solomon said. "How do we ensure manure stays in one place? What options are there to maximize the nutrient value of manure? How do we know when is the right time to apply it to our fields?"
These questions and more will be addressed.
Manure Management will be held from 1 to 4 p.m. Oct. 15 at Lockwood Park Trailside Equestrian Centre, 5201 Safford Road, Rockford. There is a $10 cost to attend, and participants have the option to purchase the On-Farm Composting Handbook for an additional $25. Registration is required; visit http://web.extension.illinois.edu/jsw or call 815-986-4357 for more information.

"So refreshing! You wouldn't think milk could taste good in lemonade, but it sure does. A little bit of work but totally worth it. I halve the lemons then squeeze, then cut up and process (easier than quartering first). Delicious!"

"Wonderful....I love the creaminess the milk gives it, and the little bit of bite from the club soda. I did notice that it did curdle a tiny bit after being stored in the refrigerator for awhile, but it was still delicious. Probably best to drink it all just after making it."

Polsinelli Shughart PC will shorten the firm name to Polsinelli PC effective late April, 2013.
The firm's February 2009 combination with Shughart Thomson & Kilroy was preceded by several smaller mergers and acquisitions. The firm has added over 150 attorneys in the four years since the Shughart Thomson merger. Today, the national law firm has more than 630 attorneys in 16 cities including Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Kansas City, Los Angeles, New York, Phoenix, St. Louis, and Washington, D.C.
"While our legacy firms and our history provides our foundation, we have become more than the sum of our parts. Most importantly we are all one firm today and our clients already refer to us as Polsinelli," said Chairman Russ Welsh. "The owners agreed using one name reflects we are one firm from coast to coast."
In its 40-year history Polsinelli has had multiple firm names including Polsinelli Shalton Flanigan Suelthaus just before the firm successfully merged with Shughart Thomson & Kilroy and adopted the combined name of Polsinelli Shughart. The merger added Shughart's well recognized extensive litigation experience to the firm's established and growing corporate, healthcare, real estate and financial services practices. Adopting one name reflects true integration of services and firm culture.
"This decision reflects branding trends in legal and other professional services which have emulated longstanding practices in consumer marketing," said Chief Marketing Officer, Allison Yurman. "From a strategic point of view, building brand equity around one name is more viable, and this change leverages existing name awareness by focusing on the shorthand already in use by clients."
Welsh said the Shughart merger in 2009 brought critical strength in litigation and Shughart's long, impressive history in Kansas City since the 1940's. Many of the original Shughart attorneys hold key leadership positions at Polsinelli as practice group chairs and board members.
"We would not be where we are today without those who joined the firm through mergers and laterally." said Welsh. "When we first merged with Shughart we all joked that both names were a mouthful. But the core reason for the name change is that it reflects who we are now and where we are headed strategically. We are confident the one name, Polsinelli, is easier for clients and will help us strengthen our national identity."

Did you know?
The Northern Cape town of Richmond boasts a rare horse museum.
The emergence of new languages in modern times is unusual, but one that has come into being in recent history is Afrikaans, somewhat of a bridge between the European languages spoken by the early white settlers (Dutch, German, French and Portuguese) in South Africa, the Malay tongue of slaves brought here by the Dutch East India Company, and an array African languages, dating from the ancient San.
One of the advantages of a new language is that the process of its formation can be documented. At the Afrikaans Language Museum in the Western Cape town of Paarl (or the Taal Museum to give it its Afrikaans name), the visitor can trace the shaping of the Afrikaans language.
The museum has been set up in the very location where a body formed to promote Afrikaans was first established in 1875, the Association for True Afrikaners (ATA). The ground floor of this two-storey Georgian-style house has been restored and furnished as close as possible to its original state. A noteworthy item situated in the children's bedroom, just as it was some 135 years ago, is the ATA's printing press, used to publish Afrikaans literature.
The top floor of the Afrikaans museum in Paarl presents the story and the personalities behind the development of the language. The exhibits are imaginatively presented as games, soundtracks and interactive displays. Exhibits are translated into English, so speaking Afrikaans is not a prerequisite.
The Afrikaans Language Museum is best visited in conjunction with the Taal Monument or the Afrikaans Language Monument, which towers above Paal just outside town. Its columns and curves represent the pillars of Afrikaans, namely its diverse intercontinental influences, and its sweeping growth. The monument is located on the edge of Paarl mountain and enjoys a panoramic view of the surrounding winelands.

text: South Charleston QB ready for encore By Rick Ryan August 25, 2013 Story Share Chris Dorst South Charleston quarterback Kentre Grier unleashes a pass against Nitro last year. CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Perhaps no high school football player in the state made a splash in his varsity debut the way Kentre Grier did last year.Then a freshman, Grier hardly took the field until South Charleston's fifth game, when he subbed during the second half with the Black Eagles trailing Capital 17-0 at Laidley Field.What he did after that was nothing short of heroic, completing 7 of 11 passes for 148 yards and two touchdowns, hitting Marquel Hampton on a 36-yard scoring toss with 1:07 to play, giving SC a 20-17 comeback victory.He remained the starter after that and, despite playing just 51/2 games, threw for 1,549 yards and 17 TDs against one interception.Grier's presence under center is one of the big reasons the Black Eagles are expected to challenge for a Class AAA playoff berth after missing out the last two seasons.In SC's first scrimmage against Woodrow Wilson last week, Grier completed 12 of 15 passes for 228 yards and three TDs with no interceptions. In the Black Eagles' scrimmage against Cabell Midland at Laidley Field, Grier hit on 14 of 19 attempts for 296 yards and three scores with no picks."You have to give credit to his dad for a lot of that stuff,'' said Donnie Mays, SC's first-year coach. Grier's father, Ken Grier, started at West Virginia State in 1990-91."He was a heck of a quarterback,'' Mays said of Ken Grier, "so having a quarterback as a father helps. On top of that, we try to make our system as simple as possible. When you're a quarterback, it's a simple progression. He knows where to get his eyes. Don't let the defender play you - you play the defender. Force them one way [with your eyes] and throw the other way. He does a real nice job with it."He got thrown into the fire last year, and I didn't get the time to work with him like I wish I'd had. But I'm sure happy the way it turned out.''Something for Black Eagles fans to look forward to this season is the combination of Grier with junior A.D. Cunningham, SC's top running back who played in just five games last year.In fact, Cunningham suffered a shoulder injury in the first half of the game at Capital and wasn't around when Grier rallied the Black Eagles to the win. Cunningham didn't play again in 2012, so he and Grier never took the field together. "It's an exciting thing for us,'' Mays said, "the first time they're in the backfield together. We were hoping they'd get there last year."It's exciting to see those two play together, and one truly complements the other. A.D. sets up the run game, and when people have to focus on A.D., Kentre can throw, and vice-versa. If they try to outnumber us on the pass, we have A.D. to run the ball.''The General ideaWinfield has been a Class AAA school since 2008, but hasn't posted a winning season or captured a playoff berth since that time. The best the Generals have gone is 4-6, which is what they were last year. They're no longer satisfied just to be considered a possible playoff contender. They want to break down the door to the postseason."Our seniors set a goal,'' said coach Craig Snyder. "They want to make the playoffs. We want to be the first Winfield team to be a triple-A playoff team. "With respect to all the great Winfield teams of the past, this is the hardest schedule we've ever had. They played tough schedules at their level [Class AA], but if you look at our schedule, it's the toughest as far as triple-A. We lost Riverside and Logan and replaced them with Woodrow Wilson and South Charleston. I think it's a fair statement to say that if we make the playoffs, it will be well-earned because of the quality of our schedule.''Snyder said he and his coaching staff don't have far to look to determine where they can shore up the program and earn that first postseason spot since 2005."In terms of us being good, it's really simple,'' he said. "We have to be much better up front. When we played teams that weren't great up front, we competed with them, and we won some of those games. But when we played team like Cabell Midland, Spring Valley and Hurricane last year, they beat us up front and we couldn't compete."It wasn't because our guys didn't try. It was a mentality issue. Some of it was a physical ability issue. That's the key. You can have plays that are well-drawn and all kinds of stuff in here [the coaches room], but it doesn't matter. Because if you don't block it, it doesn't matter.'' The Generals figure to be able to move the ball with returning talent like quarterback Toby Show and receiver Chris Turner, both seniors.Show threw for 1,507 yards and 14 TDs last year, with 48 connections going to Turner for 656 yards and six scores."This offense really has no limits,'' said Turner, who hopes to play collegiately. "As long as we execute and continue to work hard, and do what we do and listen to our coaches, we can do anything we want to. But it's going to be hard. It's not going to come easy.''Show likes the fact that Turner isn't the only experienced pass-catcher coming back. John Hathaway grabbed 19 balls for 270 yards and two scores last year, Jacob Lewis had 18 receptions for 178 yards and three TDs and running back Colt Richardson returns from a knee injury that wiped out his 2012 season."We have a lot of people returning,'' Show said. "We have a stronger line than we did last year, most of the skill players are back and a lot of people are rotating. So we should have a lot of fresh people and a lot of people ready to catch balls. The sky's the limit for the team this year.''Huskie workhorseSince Tim Meyer became head coach at Herbert Hoover four years ago, the offense has featured a workhorse running back. But for the first time since Meyer took over, the No. 1 ball-carrier from last year returns.Senior Shaun Dotson, who lugged the ball 151 times last year - 115 more than any other running back - returns for duty."I'm ready for it,'' Dotson said. "I bust my butt in the weight room every day, and I rely on my line a lot. I'll do whatever it takes to go as far as we can.''Other Hoover mainstays in the backfield in recent years have been Josh Mack in 2011 (144 carries, 106 more than the next running back), Robbie Kidd in 2010 (198 carries, next closest had 22) and Storm Robinson in 2009 (184 carries, 132 more than runner-up).Meyer thinks Dotson can handle the load he's asked to tote."You talk about somebody that works his butt off, I'll tell you,'' Meyer said. "He was in the weight room all off-season. He was in the weight room all through baseball. He's been up here and he hasn't missed a single workout since I can't remember - other than a week for his family vacation. He works hard and is a great kid.''Reach Rick Ryan at 304-348-5175 firstname.lastname@example.com.

On Saturday September 28th The Phoenix Symphony hosted a Benefit Concert Conducted by John Williams with Special Guest Steven Spielberg. This one-night-only performance was a fundraiser that combined two Hollywood titans, iconic music scores and a selection of unforgettable film clips in order to benefit The Phoenix Symphony's Education and Community Engagement programs.
This special evening began with a pre-concert reception for Sponsors and VIPs held in the Green Room at Symphony Hall. The private reception featured cocktails, hors d'oeuvres and was attended by 150 event sponsors, VIP's and members of The Phoenix Symphony Board of Directors.
After the reception, over 2,200 attendees entered a sold-out Symphony Hall for an unforgettable evening of music from the movies. The concert featured selections from some of Williams' most popular scores including Star Wars, Harry Potter, Jaws, Schindler's List, and much more. This special concert also showcased Steven Spielberg presenting the magic of music and cinema along with a selection of film clips projected over the orchestra with clips from Close Encounters of the Third Kind and Indiana Jones. The concert ended with an encore of the theme to Indiana Jones and a triple standing ovation for Maestro Williams, Steven Spielberg, and The Phoenix Symphony.
The evening concluded with an exclusive post-concert VIP Meet & Greet for 50 people. Champagne and desserts were served as the guests relived and reveled in the magical performance and presentation. Maestro Williams and Mr. Spielberg joined the reception where they greeted attendees, posed for photographs and signed autographs.
"What an honor to have such an incredible benefit concert with two of the biggest names from Hollywood Maestro John Williams and legendary film director Steven Spielberg," said Jim Ward, President and CEO of The Phoenix Symphony. "My sincere thanks to our special guests for donating their time and tremendous talent and to our event sponsors for demonstrating a commitment to music education."

In early 2010, one of Washington DC's most prestigious think tanks was holding a seminar on the Middle East which included a discussion of Israel's December 2008-January 2009 assault on Gaza which killed about 1,300 Palestinians. When the death toll was mentioned, one expert on the panel smiled enigmatically and intoned: "It's unfortunate, but every once in a while you have to mow the lawn."
The remark, which likened killing hundreds of men, women and children – many of them noncombatants – with trimming the grass, was greeted with a light tittering around the room, which was filled with some of Washington's most elite, highly educated and well-paid Middle East experts. Not a single one objected to the panelist's black humor.

BLM Proposes Changes To King Range
The Bureau of Land Management is proposing changes that will effect access to the King Range Conservation Area. The plan looks to limit access, establish an access fee and increase their campsite fee.
The King Range Business Plan, drafted by BLM, will limit access to the area to 60 visitors in the summer and 30 over the winter. The plan establishes a five dollar access fee and increases the campsite fee from eight dollars to 15.
Justin Robbins, an Outdoor Recreation Planner for BLM said more people have been going into the King Range and the changes are designed to preserve the area.
"Folks live very busy lives and they need a place to be able to go and obtain an experience with solitude," said Robbins.
Robbins said the agency wants to maintain the ideas behind the Wilderness Act that was designed to leave areas away from development.
"Folks tend to come to the wilderness area to experience solitude, naturalness, undevelopedness, primitive and unconfined recreation," said Robbins.
Wesley Smith, of the Humboldt Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation, said that he does not agree with limiting access over winter.
"It's a real low use period, and surfers, mountain bikers, hunters, we tend to use it than they propose the restrictions on," said Smith.
The access numbers are based off a survey conducted over the summer use. Smith said that more than 30 locals go into the King Range during winter, and believes the numbers should be the same as summer access. Smith also said he disagrees with the rule in place that limits camping to only 14 days per year.
"When you hit fourteen [days] that's it, and that doesn't make much since for a lot of locals," said Smith.
Public comment on the topic has been extended till October 31st.

Sale's slider proves too much for Seattle to handle
Lefty fans 12 Mariners; Abreu, Viciedo, Konerko belt homers
CHICAGO -- Putting six left-handed hitters in a lineup against Chris Sale, arguably one of the best left-handed starters in all of Major League Baseball, doesn't exactly fall under the heading of "Ideal Ways to Win."
Then again, those six lefties were the best choice a very solid Mariners squad had to offer during Friday night's series opener amidst the Fourth of July festivities at U.S. Cellular Field. And while the 7-1 White Sox victory was predictable, with Sale (8-1) tossing his seventh career complete game, the consensus postgame opinion centered on this win belonging to Sale's filthiness and not a rare lineup quirk against him.
"He's as advertised, he's got electric stuff," said Seattle shortstop Willie Bloomquist, who had two of the six hits against Sale. "It doesn't matter if you're left-handed, right-handed or switch. He's got a lot of stuff to get you out with. He's very good."
"Listen, left-handed, right-handed, it really doesn't make a difference," Seattle manager Lloyd McClendon said. "Our lefties for the most part this year have handled lefties pretty good. This guy was special tonight and you tip your hat to him."
Sale entered his 13th start of the season having held right-handed hitters to a .215 batting average, with six doubles and six home runs allowed. Left-handed hitters were just 4-for-45, with the Angels' Josh Hamilton and the Giants' Gregor Blanco having two singles apiece to represent those four hits.
Thoughts of a possible no-hitter, which Sale brings every time he takes the mound, were erased by Kyle Seager's single to left with one out in the second. Seager was promptly thrown out by Dayan Viciedo trying to stretch a single into a double.
These six Seattle left-handers finished 4-for-21 against Sale, with his slider emerging as virtually unhittable.
"I knew warming up in the bullpen it was going to be a pretty good pitch for me tonight," said Sale of the slider. "I was really working on that tonight in the bullpen. I threw a few more in my pregame bullpen than I usually do, just because I knew the amount of lefties. It's good to have that."
"Going into this game, we kind of knew with all those lefties in there that we'd have to use it a lot more, which is fine," White Sox catcher Tyler Flowers said. "We've done a good job using more changeups against most teams that stack right-handed. Even with that, though, we were still throwing a fair bit of changeups, which were pretty effective."
Offensive support came from Jose Abreu, who extended his hitting streak to 18 games with a two-run homer off Roenis Elias (7-7) during a four-run fifth inning. Viciedo started the scoring with his 10th homer leading off the fourth and finished with a 4-for-4 night.
"I'm still going there with a plan and I'm still doing my routine and working on the things I've got to do," said Viciedo through Lino Diaz, after knocking out his fourth homer in the last seven games. "I felt like a few weeks ago I was hitting the ball hard, just right at people. Nothing different. I just continue to do what I've been doing."
Paul Konerko completed the White Sox scoring in the eighth with his fifth home run of the season. It was Konerko's 439th homer of his career, 432nd as a member of the White Sox (41-46) and extended his franchise-record total bases total to 3,991.
About the only outcome left to be decided was whether Sale could close out a shutout. He allowed one run in the ninth inning, but after a mound visit from manager Robin Ventura, he finished off the 12-strikeout, no-walk second complete game of '14. Sale has 14 career games with double-digit strikeouts, leaving him third in franchise history behind Ed Walsh (17) and Juan Pizarro (15).
Seattle (47-39) lost for the 17th time in the last 20 games played on the South Side of Chicago and fell to 7-28 overall against the White Sox since 2010. Even with more right-handers in the Mariners' lineup, the outcome still might have been the same against the dominant White Sox ace.
"Yeah, I wouldn't say I was by any means laughing at it or anything, but that's definitely the first time it's happened this year," said Sale of the lefty-loaded lineup. "I knew I was probably going to throw a few more sliders today than normal, but that's about it."
"That's kind of the way they're built," said Ventura of Seattle. "It's not ideal. But for lefties going up there, those were the toughest lefty at-bats he has had this year. They were staying up there, putting 'em in play."

I guess the non-disclosure has ended (well, it's about six months since he left). The Businessoffashion has an excerpt from ex-Balenciaga Nicolas Ghesquiere's first big interview – in the newly launched System magazine — since he quit the house he made famous last November, and it's a doozy. Effectively, the designer is taking on the entire executive side of PPR-about-to-be-Kering, the Group that owns Balenciaga. The interview is sure to ignite the always-burning flames of the creative vs. corporate debate, which flared high post-John-Galliano's implosion, but have of late been simmering rather lower.

Hiring The Right People Is More Important Than Ever, But Are You Asking The Right Questions?

When the economy slows, companies tend to slow their hiring and expect more from their existing employees. It quickly becomes critical that employees perform up to these new, heightened expectations. For those positions that companies do hire for, selecting the right candidate becomes more important than ever. However, many hiring managers tend to ask the… Read More →

I had an opportunity to hang out with some of my girls this weekend. After a long day, I didn't want to wear anything too complicated, but I didn't want to wear sweats out either. I decided to go with this beautiful Blue Crepe Lattice Cold-Shoulder from Torrid. I even threw my hair up in a high bun.
I love the top, but after looking at these images, I feel like I should've chosen a smaller size. It's supposed to have a flowy fit, but I think it's a little too much for my shape. Now, this is something I've only recently noticed. I tend to buy clothes that are a little too big for me. I don't know if it's a mental thing, maybe my perception of myself is skewed. I'm in-between sizes, so if I go down a size it might be a little tighter, but if I go up a size it's a little big. I always end up going bigger. That needs to change.
Regardless, it's extremely comfy and the color pops. Loving this blue right now and the shoulders are so sexy! If you also notice, I should have paired this with more form fitting denim. It's crazy because it looked fine in the mirror, but the images are bugging me. LOL!
Whatever…there's nothing like a well-deserved lesson in fashion. Earrings are from Target, bracelets are from Lane Bryant, shoes are Steve Madden, and denim is from Torrid.

AN OWL which is believed to have flown into power lines after being confused by smoke from the massive tyre fire near Selby has died.
The short eared owl, nicknamed Phoenix, was found near the fire at Newgen Recycling with serious injuries last weekend, and given to the charity Selby Wildlife Rehabilitation.
Annette Pyrah, of the charity, said today that the bird had sadly died yesterday, probably from its injuries and shock. "We did our best for her," she added.

Tonight I smoked and then grilled sausage stuffed dates wrapped in bacon. Incredible!
I used dates, thick cut bacon, and merguez beef sausage (any spicy sausage will do, chorizo would be perfect, and even hamburger with loads of paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, etc. would do the same thing).
I sliced the dates down the middle and removed the pit, I stuffed a small amout of sausage (a couple teaspoons) in to fill it, then wrapped once in bacon and stuck a toothpick in to keep the bacon in place.
I smoked them over the hottest part of the smoker for about 15 minutes (around 300-350) and then grilled them in the friebox for five minutes turning them frequently.
I can't even begin to describe how incredible they tasted. Enjoy with the beverage of your choice

Veterans Affairs: Support a 90 yr old Purple Heart recipient and veteran of two wars
My dad, James March, is a World War II and Korean War veteran with a Purple Heart he received in WW2 -- but now that he's seriously ill, the VA is refusing to help him.
Even though his injury from the war caused him terrible back and leg pain throughout his life, my dad never complained to the VA -- he rarely asks for help from anyone. But now that he's 90 years old, dad is really sick and he urgently needs help from an assisted living facility. Our whole family is worried about him: he's barely eating, he's nearly lost his eyesight, and he's suffering from dementia. In just a few months, he lost 70 pounds.
Dad needs constant care, but Mom isn't able to be a full-time caregiver because she's struggling with cancer recovery and diabetes -- and my family doesn't have enough money to pay out of pocket for him to get a home aide.
The VA lost our application for assistance two times before they denied our claim. Even though my parents are crippled by medical costs and their home was foreclosed on 2/27/2013, the VA says my dad "makes too much money" to qualify for help. In reality, my parents barely have enough left over at the end of the month to buy their groceries, let alone pay for at-home care.
My dad was there when our country needed him to fight in WWII, healing others as a medic on the battlefield where he earned a Purple Heart. Now that he needs us, will we turn our back on him? Sign my petition asking that the VA give my dad the benefits he and all veterans deserve for their service and sacrifice.

Approve the application of James March 90 yr old veteran of two wars and Purple Heart recipient. He served his country in WW2 and during the Korean War. There are not many of these guys left. He has barely been sick throughout his life and had not decided to apply for VA benefits until now. He is now 90 suffering from dementia and failure the thrive and can no longer care for himself. He is in need of a specialized nursing facility and or long term care The VA has turned him down saying he makes too much money. They did not ask about his foreclosed home, the monthly medical expenses for his wife, and the legitimate bills they have every month that leaves them with barely any money to live on. His other daughter is mentally ill and in no capacity to help. With this application being turned down it would make it impossible for his family to afford a home care nurse and would certainly lead his care to take a downward turn. His wife and previous caregiver is 72 with cancer and diabetes and is struggling with this situation. Please reconsider this application. James March was there when our country needed him to fight in WWII, healing others as a medic on the battlefield where he earned a Purple Heart. Now that he needs us, will we turn our back on him? Please grant James the benefits he and all veterans deserve for their service and sacrifice.

badandy wrote:b dude has a point, there is no way to tell whether a very basic word has been borrowed from latinate into germanic or vice versa, such as 'cat' and 'two.'
Oh, quite often (but indeed not always), there is a way to tell! And in the case of the word 'cat', it can be substantiated that it is certainly not a Germanic word originally, but a loan from, or rather via, (Late) Latin. 'Late' because a few very typically Germanic sound changes didn't work at that moment anymore. I read about two possible origins, viz. a Celtic or a North-African origin for the word.
"i drove my wagon off a cliff with our ugly friend as the lights went out all over my little town. I can not understand why writing only in Germanic words is so hard. if the words have sister words in Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, German, then they are from the good old English tongue, before it was undone by the Gauls."
- Germanic: via Latin, prob. from Celtic.
PS: I hope this is not regarded as nitpicking. I just love to look up these kinds of things. And as written before, i wouldn't like to write even a short "Germanic-only" note in my (Germanic) native tongue Dutch.

The night I visited Wildebeest in Vancouver, the menu featured delicacies like smoked foie gras torchon with charred apricots, bison tartare with grilled tongue, veal neck with potato mousse, and blood sausage with heritage onions. Order omakase-style, and the chef will send out an array of dishes like these. Regardless of whether you dine omakase or a la carte, when it's time for dessert, you'll want to order Wildebeest's version of "Cheesecake" ($9).
The cheesecake is actually in quotation marks on the menu, as what you'll get is a deconstructed version of the classic dessert. It comes in a bowl, the base being the custard filling that's made with goat milk then poured into an iSi nitrous oxide cream charger to create a mousse-like texture.
Representing the cheesecake topping is a quenelle of raspberry sorbet. Its bold color contrasts well with the white whipped custard. The sorbet is rich in fruit flavor and slightly but pleasantly tart. As for the crust, it's a graham crumble that's sprinkled over the other components to provide textural contrast.
The Wildebeest Cheesecake is light and fluffy, and not overly sweet. Like flying through clouds at the end of a enjoyably long flight, eating this cheesecake is a delicious way to end a decadent, meat-heavy meal.

OKLAHOMA CITY – Lorenzo Thomas completed his All-American performance at the 2014 NCAA Wrestling Championships with a sixth place finish at 184 pounds, in the process becoming Penn's 27th All-American and first at 184 pounds.
Thomas finished his tournament with a 5-3 record, the most wins by a Penn wrestler at a single NCAA Championships since Micah Burak won five en route to a seventh-place finish in 2012. Five wins at one national tournament is tied for third among any Penn wrestler, one behind Matt Valenti and Matt Herrington who each won six en route to fifth place finishes in 2002 and 2004, respectively. In the history of Penn Wrestling, Thomas is just the eighth to win five or more matches at a single tournament. The eight matches contested by Thomas are tied with Herrington and Valenti for most at a single NCAA Championships by a Penn wrestler.
In the consolation semifinals, Thomas met Cornell's No. 3 seeded Gabe Dean. Thomas was unable to finish on a scramble in the first minute of the opening period, and it was Dean who scored to take the lead. In the second period, Thomas looked to lock up a spladle and secure backpoints to take the lead, but he got too aggressive and was reversed by Dean, eventually conceding backpoints to trail, 7-1, after two. In the third, Dean would lock in a cradle in the final moments of the match, and Thomas would lose by fall at 6:48.
Thomas ran into a highly-motivated No. 7 seed Kevin Steinhaus of Minnesota in the fifth-place match, Steinhaus carrying team title implications into the match. Steinhaus pounced early with a duck under and trip for a five-point move and Thomas was never able to recover. Despite some scrambling efforts, Thomas could never mount a rally and Steinhaus won, 18-2.
In addition to securing Penn's first NCAA All-American finish at 184 pounds, Thomas locked up the highest podium finish by a Quaker under head coach Rob Eiter and Penn's highest finisher overall since 2007. Thomas is Penn's third sixth-place finisher at the NCAA Championships and first since Rick Springman took sixth in 2002 at 174 pounds.
As a team, Penn finished 36th overall out of 72 teams competing at the NCAA Championships with 10 points. The Quakers were second among the six Ivy teams and fourth of the 17 EIWA teams with wrestlers entered in the NCAA Championships.

You have just been diagnosed with an illness that will last your
entire lifetime. You may have many different feelings, such as anger,
resentment, or denial. These feelings are normal and expected because you are
experiencing the loss of what your life was like before you were diagnosed with
this disease.
You can help yourself adjust by:
Grieving is not a simple process in which you simply adjust to a loss
and then never grieve it again. The loss is always with you and you may repeat
the process, or some steps in the process, over and over again as you live with
this loss. Realizing that you are experiencing a major loss and dealing with
your grief will give you more control over your life and your ability to manage
this disease.
If you find that you need help in dealing with your feelings, talk
with your doctor about counseling.
