" Brand: Benefit / Powder / Type: Bronzing Powder / Subcategory: Powder / What it does: Bronzes / Sub-Type: Blusher "
Benefit is my guilty, splurge pleasure! I love how the products have a cute and catchy name and I love how they are packaged uniquely. But all this does come at quite a high end cost, so I don't tend to purchase from them a lot, just now and then when I feel like having a treat! I am always hinting to family and friends at how much I love the products and last week while out shopping my boyfriend decided to buy me the Benefit One Hot Minute Bronzing Powder purely because he liked the clock on the front and thought it was a pocket watch! I wasn't too sure what it was myself but was SO excited to add it to my collection!
So just what is it? It is a 'sexy in second's face powder' or a bronzer to me and you! Benefit claim that for a gorgeous 'gaze at me glow' dust this loose 'rose gold' finishing powder over your face and neck. I absolutely love rose gold both in jewellery and in colour so I was so glad to have this as a bronzer. The shade itself is amazing I really love it! As I have a fair complexion I tend to stay away from the really dark St Tropez bronzers as I look, quite frankly, stupid with it on! However this shade almost combines a blusher and a bronzer in one which is probably why it I labelled as rose gold - rose being the blusher and gold being the bronzer. I love how light it is and how you don't have to be scared of applying it in case you put too much on! I would say this would suit all skin tones as it has the right amount of colour and different tones running through to make it suitable.
The packaging is the BEST! I actually love having it in my handbag and always have it on my dressing table as it looks so great! As the name is One Hot Minute - Benefit have designed the packaging to look like a pocket watch with a clock face! Genius! The compact is round a quite big about 4 inches in diameter, its made of a hard and sturdy plastic and coloured a gorgeous goldy orange colour. On the top is a sticker that turns the pot into a clock - with a c=gorgeous pinky rose border and Roman numerals for the numbers, with the fancy clock hands reading ten past three. On the inside of the clock in italic black writing is the brand name with a blue background. Once you open up the compact, the lid comes off and there is no mirror, however there is the sieve mechanism that all loose powders possess to ensure that you do not use too much and waste it.
Something I really, really love and was quite surprised at is that enclosed is a fan tail brush. I had never used one of these before but it is basically a small brush with the bristles displayed out in a fan that you see in hot countries! The advantages of this are that the product is picked up easily and dispersed onto your face well to create a natural look.
To apply I use the fan tail brush and a very little amount tapped out into the lid. I then press the brush into the powder (on both sides of the brush) then tap off the excess into the pot and sweep over your cheek bones, temples are anywhere you feel needs a boost! You can also add a bit to your neck and chest to make it more flawless and seamless.
I love this bronzer or face powder as it is the perfect shade for my skin tone and blends brilliantly due to the loose powder effect. Also the packaging is amazing and makes me happy to have it in my collection! Although it is quite an expensive product at £23.50 it contains 8.5g of product and lasts for ages as you only need to apply a tiny bit each time. Also I love the little brush included and use it to apply my blusher too, although with this product I find I don't need to wear blusher as it's a combo of the two.
You can purchase Benefit products at Boots, Boots.com as well as the Benefit website and all good online make up stores as well as any department stores that have a Benefit counter.
I bought this on the advice of the benefit counter woman, I was after a bronzer but I didn't want to look too orange as I am quite fair and I wanted a natural, not nuclear, glow. I chose Benefit as I am a sucker for their products with the cute packaging and silly names, they are also usually pretty good quality too. She offered to try it on me and I loved the look so I bought it.
She assured me this was the best option for me as it was lighter and more natural than some of the others.
It cost around £20, i can't remember exactly, which is not cheap but benefit products never are!
The packaging is gorgeous, Benefit products always have that cheeky, retro feel that I love and this is no exception and for some reason I just love things in cute tins, it's just different form the usual compact though it does mean it's trickier to use.
It is a loose powder with a slight shimmer and it smells lovely! Most powders don't really smell of anything but this has a lovely scent.
It comes with a little fan brush which stows away neatly in the tin and is actually a rather god brush unlike most freebie brushes that come with the product. The time also has a little plastic tray inside it which you must NOT throw away! This is the one downside with the packaging, it looks flimsy but it is actually integral to stopping the powder going everywhere, luckily I didn't throw it away but it was a close one!
To use you tap a bit of the powder into the lid and dip the brush into it, the supplied brush is good or you can use a blusher or kabuki type brush instead, all work well. You can use it as an all over powder applying in a '3' shape on the forehead cheek and chin, with a bit on the nose to finish, or just as a blusher; or a combination of the two.
It is a subtle glow that can be built up for a more made up look, it goes on well over foundation and can even be applied on top of blusher or another bronzer for an added boost. The shimmer effect is very subtle but it adds a definite 'lift' to you complexion, I use it on its own or over foundation depending on the look I'm going for and it works well for both. It is also nice on the décolletage.
I love the natural glow it gives me, I was scared of bronzer having seen many a disaster walk the streets! However this is a subtle but noticeable way to give your complexion a boost, especially in the grey winter (or let's face it summer) months. I am still using my original purchase a few months later and will probably purchase again.
Today I am reviewing the BeneFit one hot minute bronzing powder
This powder costs £23.50 and you can get it from boots, debenhams, etc. It is a loose powder and I'm going to start by saying the price of this is ridiculous. I mean, I like beneFit, some of their stuff is amazing, but this is not one of them things. The aim of this product is to finish off your makeup by giving it a cheek glow. TO me, the colour does not look like the 'rosy gold' beneFit describes it as, to me, it's just a goldy coloured powder. The brush it comes with is also not as nice as the boxed powder brushes.
The texture of this powder is amazing though, its heavier / thicker than the box powders but it's not heavy on the skin and it feels kind of creamy. It's quite a sheer powder so if you have quite dark skin, it might not be very suitable. It could be used as a cheek highlighter but it's not the best product for you.
I like the texture of this powder and it does give a nice glow to my skin but I think 23 pounds is way overpriced for this.
Benefit makes a huge variety of beauty products but its most popular and best selling creations are usually the bronzers, blushers and highlighters.
Benefit One Hot Minute is a very different to most of their standard bronzers. Usually Benefit sell bronzers where the powder is packed hard and they come in cute little boxes. This bronzing highlighter one is actually a loose powder and it comes in a sturdy tin with a screw top lid.
The packaging is beautifully designed. On the lid is an eye catching retro design of a clock face. Inside the tin is a sifter which allows you to have control over the powder which prevents wastage. The product comes with a brush in order to apply the powder although you may prefer to use a brush that you already have.
Despite its appearance, this product is actually marketed as a highlighting face powder. The tinted powder is a rusty gold colour and the purpose of it is to add the perfect finishing touch of radiance to your make up. Benefit promise that this sweep of rosy gold sheen will look great on all skin tones and that it will give you a healthy glow instantly. It also smells delicious.
In order to use the product, you dip the brush gently into the powder and blow off any excess powder. It is actually quite annoying to have to blow away excess with the price that you pay for this product but it's necessary if you don't want to end up in a big mess.
You then sweep the powder across your whole face and neck for a luminous finish. It can be worn alone as a quick pick me up or over the top of make up.
Personally, I don't like to use this product all over my face as I think it looks shiny and too much. I prefer to wear it only on my cheek bones over my normal bronzer and it gives my cheeks more radiance and illuminates my complexion.
You can also use this as a body illuminator and it does look beautiful on the collar bone and shoulders. The product isn't going to last long if you use it on the whole body though.
One Hot Minute will set you back around £20 for 8.5 grams of the rusty powder. It is available from most large department stores including Boots and is also available from many online websites.
The effect of this highlighting powder will be to some people's tastes and not others. If you like the all over shiny healthy glow look, then you will love this, I prefer my skin to look matt so for me to only use this on my cheeks is a bit of a waste. Be warned though, this is definitely not a bronzer and is merely a subtle powder to enhance your complexion.
I'll continue to use the product, especially on my body but I won't be repurchasing it because it doesn't fit in with my make up routine.
As some people on here may already know, I am a big lover of Benefit Cosmetics products, and my make up bag is just full to the brim of it. One of their products that I can not be with out is One Hot Minute Bronzing Powder.
It is basically what it says on the tin, bronzing powder. It comes in a nice little screw top tub, which is made of metal and is a bronze colour. There is a clock face printed on the top which has the words one hot minute on it.
When you open the tub for the first time you will find the cute little fan brush which is supplied for application, and a plastic covering which you need to remove, as well as the sticker over the small holes in the tub which allow the product to come through. Personally I do not use the fan brush, as I feel it is not the right kind of brush for the job, and I use a medium sized blusher brush to apply my bronzer.
The powder itself is a nice warm, golden color and it has a really nice smell to it. The smell reminds me of cinammon, and is a really nice, warm smell. As I said before, I apply my bronzer with a medium sized blusher brush, and I find that this spreads the bronzer and blends it to my skin nicely and without any effort. I only need a tiny amount on my brush to gain a nice colour to my skin, and it does spread quite far too. It literally takes less than a minute to apply to your face, and it looks fantastic.
My skin always looks shimmery and glowing when I use One Hot Minute, and I look healthy too. I also find it is brilliant at helping to hide imperfections and flaws. Used on top of foundation and/or powder, it can help to create a beautiful, flawless finish which lasts all day. I have never once had to reapply my bronzer, even when I have put it on in the morning and gone out at night. It has perfect staying power, and when you want to remove it, there is no problem. It comes off easily with make up wipes, cleanser or just soap and water.
The powder itself is a light powder, so I do not feel like my skin is being clogged up when I use it. The lovely smell that comes with it also stays for quite some time, which I find perks my mood up on a cold winters morning, as well as perking up my face!
As with all other Benefit products, One Hot Minute does not come cheap. If bought from Benefit directly it costs over £21.00, but I have managed to find it much cheaper on Amazon, through Elle Cosmetics, for £14.50 plus postage and packaging. This is the best price I have seen it for on any website. There is a few listings on eBay, but I am vary wary of Benefit make up on eBay, as they all seem to be conterfeit products. A tub of this bronzer actually lasts me about 5 - 6 months, even with daily use, so even at the usual price it really is worth the price you pay for it.
You can buy One Hot Minute from The Benefit Website, from Benefit Stores and Counters across the UK, from Larger Boots stores, on Boots.com and on Amazon. Prices will vary according to which store you are in, I personally find Amazon to be the best option.
If you like to look glowing and healthy without extra effort, then this really is the best bronzer you will find. You can wear it on its own, or on top of other make up, and either way you will love the way it looks on your skin. I recommend One Hot Minute, 100% and I hope that you guys will love it as much as I do.
Benefit One Hot Minute Finishing Powder/Blusher / For a gorgeous gaze at me glow sweep this loose rose-gold finishing powder over your complexion & decollete / The accompanying custom brush dusts on the perfect amount of powder for a beautiful sheen / Tinted for radiance on all skin tones / All skin types.

Phillips' repaired thumb OK after taking grounders
MIAMI -- Reds second baseman Brandon Phillips, who is on the disabled list after having surgery July 11 to repair a torn ligament in his left thumb, took ground balls Thursday for the first time since having the operation, and he got through it with no issues.
"He's got a really great brace that protects his thumb from being bent to the wrong position when fielding," Reds manager Bryan Price said on Friday. "The great thing about it is he's able to continue working on his footwork and stay in baseball shape and throw, which is very important. He's still a ways away from being able to swing the bat."
Phillips remains on track to return sometime in late August.
"He's champing at the bit to go faster," Price said. "I don't know if this is an injury you can really rush to completion."
Players on the DL for extended periods, like Phillips, often don't travel with the club on road trips. Price felt he wanted Phillips to be on this trip, however.
"I think it's very difficult for our guys on the DL to not be with the team for extended periods," Price said. "We had the All-Star break. He had the surgery just before the All-Star break and then we had New York and Milwaukee [trips] when he wasn't with us. He really wants to be with our group of guys."

MIAMI - The Miami-Dade Board of County Commissioners voted in favor of putting the Sun Life Stadium deal before voters in a May 14th referendum.
During the special meeting Wednesday, commissioners voted 8-3 in favor of the deal Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez reached with the Dolphins. Commissioners Rebeca Sosa, Bruno Barreiro, Sally Heyman, Jose "Pepe" Diaz, Barbara Jordan, Dennis Moss, Jean Monestime, and Javier Souto voted yes. Xavier Suarez, Esteban Bovo, and Juan Zapata voted against the deal.
Voters will decide whether to increase the hotel bed tax in mainland Miami-Dade by one percent to help fund renovations at the Miami Dolphins' home.
"The difference between the deal we negotiated with the Miami Dolphins and the other stadium deal is night and day," said Gimenez.
"We owe it to the community the ability for them to decide what they want," said Sosa.
Commissioners debated the issue for about five hours.
"I understand the deadlines I just can't abide by them," said Suarez.
"We are now in shotgun mode," said Bovo. "Something has to happen, I'm assuming, to send a message to the legislature that we're onboard or we're supportive or the county wants this and there's a political dance involved and then we're asked as a body to make a decision on something that was, in essence, given to us in bullet-point form yesterday."
"The economic impact will be felt for many years to come," said Jordan.
The deal, a 30-year economic development grant, includes a non-relocation agreement. The Dolphins could pay a minimum $120 million repayment penalty if certain conditions, including the number of Super Bowls and BCS Championship they land, aren't met.
The Dolphins have offered to pay the county and the state back the money it receives from a sales tax rebate of $3 million a year for 30 years. The team will also pay for the local referendum.
"There are no taxes on Miami-Dade County residents," said Miami Dolphins chief executive officer Mike Dee. "This is driven by tourism taxes, those paid for by visitors to our community, taxes that we pay when we travel and visit other communities would fund the majority of this project."
The state legislature is considering a bill that would authorize the rebate and also raise the hotel bed tax. Under the Senate version of the bill, the Dolphins would have to compete for that money with other professional sports franchises in the state.
"I haven't seen the bill yet," Florida Gov. Rick Scott said Tuesday. "As you know, I put out five principles of what would have to be in a bill for me to sign it, and it was basically tied to: what would the owner invest? Will there be a local referendum if there's going to be a tax? Is there a good return on investment for the taxpayers? Will the team commit to stay for the period of time? So that's basically what I said my criteria would be, so when the bill gets finished, I'll review it and make a decision."
The Dolphins say that their 25-year-old stadium needs at least $350 million in improvements to remain competitive with newer stadiums around the NFL. In its deal with the county, the team will pay 70 percent of the cost.
The Dolphins and San Francisco 49ers, who will move into a new stadium next year, are vying for Super Bowl L in 2016. The loser will compete against the Houston Texans to host Super Bowl LI in 2017.
NFL team owners will announce the locations of Super Bowls L and LI on May 22 in Boston.

Welcome to Local 6 Theme World
April 22, 2013
Animal Kingdom Update, SeaWorld's Headache & Universal Deal
Happy Earth Day!
A reminder this week marks 2 milestones for Nature areas of Theme World.
First up -- Today is Animal Kingdom's 15th Birthday.
Disney being Disney -- they are using it as an excuse to push some new Animal Kingdom Merchandise. A look at some of what is being offered is pictured below.
I love Animal Kingdom. Probably my favorite of the Disney Parks. Here's to hoping for some announcements of major attractions (Avatar or otherwise) soon.
Second -- a reminder -- this weekend marks the open house for The Disney Wilderness Preserve. I talked about its history -- and Saturday's big event in my last Theme World entry.
Meanwhile -- as SeaWorld gears up for the May 24th grand opening of Antarctica: Empire of the Penguins, something just happened that could ruffle some feathers.
You may know Orlando-based SeaWorld Parks & Resorts went public Friday. Traders were eager to snap up shares of Shamu that first day. SeaWorld raised more than $700 Million -- and its stock price closed the first day up $6.50. (Symbol is SEAS On the NYSE if you want to track it).
However, one early investor could make shareholder meetings uncomfortable. PETA Announced it bought up shares of SeaWorld so it can speak out at those meetings -- and pressure the board of directors. On its blog, PETA writes:"Our first order of business as part owners of SeaWorld? Getting the orcas out-including Corky , who has been enslaved by SeaWorld for 44 years. We will educate stockholders about how marine parks tear orcas and dolphins away from their homes and families and imprison them in minuscule concrete tanks, where they suffer from captivity-induced stress and illness."
Yep. Fun times are ahead at those shareholder meetings.
A different kind of thrill for Universal Fans. As we count down to the opening of Transformers: The Ride 3-D. Universal is trying to bring Floridians to the parks during this brief slow time between Spring Break & Memorial Day.
The deal? Buy a one-day ticket to either Universal park -- and get a second day for free. That's $88 for a 1-park Ticket or $123 if you want to park-hop.
Of course -- the base annual pass is not much more ($175 for the "Power Pass" with no free parking and blackout dates) so keep that in mind.
To get this deal -- you have to buy online -- and you have to use the tickets by May 26th (so no guarantee you will get to ride with Optimus Prime & Pals)
Here's a link to the offer.
And here's a link to my previous Theme World entries.
We'll have a lot more this week.
And please keep emailing me your questions, tips & feedback. Always happy to hear from you.

Well thanks to this section I have gotten my throw up to averaging 380'-420' on a line drive. So I'm pretty consistant at 400'.
Now here's the question, to throw 450+ do you generally need to manipulate the flight of the disc? Meaning to throw this far should you throw a huge Anny or hyzer flip? Should it be higher then 10-20 ft off the ground (not a line drive) ect.

Oregon: 'We're ecstatic that Coach Kelly decided to remain in Eugene'
EUGENE, Ore. - Chip Kelly will return next season to coach the Oregon Ducks.
"Obviously we're ecstatic that Coach Kelly decided to remain at the University of Oregon," Rob Mullens, Oregon's athletic director, told reporters Monday. "We've had unprecedented success over the last 4 years, and that's attributed to his innovative style. He's a great leader, and we're thrilled that he's going to remain in Eugene."
Mullens said Kelly called him Sunday night to confirm his plan to return as head coach after winning the Fiesta Bowl.
"I think we have something very special here," said Mullens about Kelly's decision. "It's a great place, we have a very passionate fan base, we have a unique culture.
"I think it's one of the best jobs in football."
For a second straight year, Kelly had been widely reported to be on coaching short lists for the NFL. Last year, Kelly turned down an opportunity to coach the Tampa Bay Bucs. This year, he talked with the Philadelphia Eagles, Cleveland Browns and Buffalo Bills.
The Associated Press reported Sunday that two sources confirmed Kelly planned to stay at Oregon.
Fans and players wished Kelly well as stories swirled about his possible departure.
The majority of votes in a poll on KVAL.com favored Kelly sticking with the Ducks.
Musician Mat Kearney, who grew up in Eugene, wrote and recorded a song urging Kelly to stay. He posted a video of the song on YouTube last week.
"Chip Don't Go" has gone viral, with its musing about Kearney's childhood in Eugene when fans prayed for 3-win seasons and how 4 straight BCS bowl appearances had made him a believer in the Ducks.

SAN DIEGO — California was going from cold to colder Friday as a chill expected to bring the biggest mercury dips in years descended on much of the state.
While the coldest spots of the Bay Area could drop into the high 20s — meaning a frost warning and precautions for those with tropical outdoor plants — forecasters with the National Weather Service said Friday evening that they do not anticipate wet weather that would add to problems.
The lowest temperatures in the area are forecast for Morgan Hill, Concord and Livermore, all of which may dip into the 20s through the weekend. Temperatures in Walnut Creek are anticipated to drop to 30 degrees, while San Jose and Fremont should be a few degrees warmer as the Peninsula and Oakland remain in the mid-30s.
The weather service issued a freeze watch in effect through Sunday morning, which is expected to be the chilliest morning of the cold snap. "A clear and cold night will allow temperatures to drop into the upper 20s and lower 30s across the Santa Clara Valley," the advisory says.
Forecaster Steve Anderson said temperatures in the Bay Area will start warming up after Monday, and "should be back to the normal for this time of the year by Thursday."
That normal is a high of 55 to 60 degrees, with overnight lows in the low 40s, Anderson said.
In Southern California, the Grapevine section of Interstate 5 north of Los Angeles was partially reopened Friday after being closed by snow as a cold snap sent temperatures plummeting throughout the state.
The CHP began escorting southbound cars through the Grapevine section of the major north-south route after a 16-hour shutdown that prompted hundreds of truckers and other motorists to pull over and spend the night by the side of the road.
"There must have been 1,000 Mack trucks lined up," Heidi Blood, 40, said early Friday.
Morning temperatures fell into the 20s and 30s in many areas, and much lower in the mountains. A low of 12 degrees was recorded in the Big Bear mountain resort east of Los Angeles.
Strawberry growers covered their crops, while San Diego zookeepers turned on heaters for the chimpanzees.
In Sonoma County, homeless shelters started handing out extra warm clothes to protect the least fortunate from below-freezing overnight temperatures.
Central Valley citrus growers braced for three days of subfreezing temperatures. In Modesto, temperatures dipped into the 20s early Friday, several degrees colder than usual for this time of year.
Napa, in the wine country, and Sacramento, farther north, both recorded 27.
High temperatures in the Central Valley over the weekend were forecast for 50 degrees, 3 degrees lower than normal for mid-January, according to the National Weather Service.
In the south, forecasters warned that a low pressure trough sinking over San Diego County and parts of neighboring Orange County could keep nightly temperatures below the freezing point in coastal areas, the low deserts and inland valleys, threatening orange and avocado orchards and other sensitive plants. The coldest nights were expected to hit Friday and Saturday.
Farmers were prepared to pull out giant fans to circulate the air and keep it from settling on their citrus trees, said Eric Larson of the San Diego County Farm Bureau.
"These guys are going to be up all night watching thermometers," Larson said.
Workers at SeaWorld in San Diego planned to crank up the heat for their macaws, toucans and parrots. San Diego zookeepers were also heating rooms for chimpanzees, apes and other tropical animals.
"They'll probably be huddling together and not be in areas where people will be able to see them," said zoo spokeswoman Christina Simmons.

Meet one of the newest faces of agriculture: Will Gilmer, co-owner and operator of the Gilmer Dairy Farm in Lamar County, Ala.
Gilmer was recently named one of the "faces of agriculture," a contest sponsored by the U.S. Farmers and Ranchers Alliance (USDFRA) and designed to help agriculture producers reconnect to consumers.
Gilmer, along with Chris Chinn from Missouri, Katie Pratt from Illinois and Bo Stone from North Carolina, will set the stage for an enhanced dialogue between the agriculture industry and consumers. Click here to read the news release and meet the other winners of the contest.
"The four winners selected are passionate about farming and ranching, and eager to share their stories about the innovative ways they continue to improve food production each day," Bob Stallman, chairman of USFRA and president of the American Farm Bureau Federation said in a USFRA news release. "There are a lot of misconceptions and questions among consumers about how food gets from the farm to our tables. These four individuals are equipped with the passion and experience necessary to address these complicated issues and give honest answers."
The search for the next faces of agriculture started last summer, and 9 finalists were named in mid-November. A panel of judges and public voting helped narrow the finalists down to final four winners. Click the video above to view Gilmer's winner entry that won over the hearts of both judges and the public.
In a post on his blog, Gilmer found is the impact sharing his story has made on those around him.
"At the end of the day though, I'm just a guy that loves being a farmer and enjoys giving you a glimpse of what goes on around here," Gilmer wrote. "Whether 'my story' reaches 50 people or 50 million, it has reached you and that's what's important to me."

We'll hear all the rhetoric about how this game meant more to us, but here's some stuffs
Lebron played 4 more minutes tonight than his season average.
Bosh played 4 more than his average.
Wade played 2 more than his average.
So Miami pushed all of the big 3 further than they normally do. And I'm sure Wade's minutes going over his average are extremely closely watched.

Corn futures continued their bullish reaction to the January 11 release of USDA data Monday. Surprisingly tight December stocks, the sharp upward revision in forecast 2012-13 U.S. feed usage and the resulting reduction in the anticipated 2012-13 carryout probably powered the advance. The maize market continued rising Monday night, possibly due to bullish momentum, but we would also point out that a Taiwanese firm issued a tender for 60,000 tonnes of corn early this morning. The short-term outlook may depend upon the ability of the nearby contracts to sustain their early-morning push above their respective 40-day moving averages. That might signal a major shift in the recent trend. March corn had risen 3 cents to reach $7.27/bushel in the pre-dawn hours, while December had edged 3/4 cent higher to $5.84 3/4.
Although CBOT soybean futures initially reacted rather poorly to the USDA data released last Friday, traders seemed to be much more impressed with the 470,000-tonne reduction in the USDA forecast for ending-2013 global soybean carryout over the weekend. Futures rose strongly Sunday night, then accelerated upward in reaction to Monday morning news that China had bought 120,000 tonnes of beans for delivery in the current crop year. They continued rising in Tuesday morning trading, but technical resistance associated with their 40 and 50 day moving averages may act as a major obstacle to further short-term gains. March beans look set to open the CBOT pit session 8 1/4 cents higher at $14.26 1/4 this morning, while March soyoil climbed 0.28 cents to 50.73 cents/pound in early electronic action and March meal rose $1.2 to $418.7/ton.
News that the USDA estimate of 2012 winter wheat plantings had fallen well short of industry forecasts, as well as its cut to U.S. 2013 wheat carryout apparently boosted wheat futures over the weekend. Concerns about the potential size of the winter wheat crop due to persistent drought over the Great Plains seemingly offered support for U.S. wheat futures as well. The various wheat markets continued their advance in the overnight hours, possibly due to reported reductions in the 2012 Ukrainian harvest. As with corn and soybeans, forthcoming wheat market direction may depend upon the ability, or lack thereof, of nearby futures to overcome technical resistance at slightly higher levels. March CBOT wheat added 5 cents, to $7.72/bushel, to its recent advance Monday night, while March KCBT wheat gained the same amount to $8.28 1/2 and March MGE futures surged 4 cents to $8.56 3/4.
Live cattle futures lost considerable ground last week due to surprising cash weakness at that time. The short-term situation does not seem particularly promising at this juncture, since slow producer sales in late 2012 seemingly backed quite a few animals up into the January market. The recent lack of strength exhibited by choice grade beef values cannot be helping the situation either. However, the cattle market has consistently demonstrated great resilience over the past two years, so we would be very reluctant to rule out a sizeable technical rebound in the wake of the losses suffered over the past eight CME sessions. February cattle slipped another 0.25 cents to 130.10 cents/pound, while April fell 0.50 cents to 134.25.
Anticipation of short-term cash and/or wholesale strength may have boosted February lean hog futures Monday, especially when the general advance was viewed in light of industry talk indicating pork is benefiting from greatly elevated beef and chicken prices. Strong afternoon cash quotes seemingly confirmed the bullish bias common in the pit, but the afternoon pork report told a different tale, since cutout actually slipped moderately. That news almost surely sparked the overnight losses, thereby raising fresh questions about the short-term hog and pork outlook. February hogs slipped 0.05 cents to 85.17 in pre-dawn trading, while June futures fell 0.32 cents to 96.52 cents/pound.
Cotton futures reacted wildly to the USDA data Friday, since the numbers indicated sharp divergences in the U.S. and global cotton situations. That is, the Agriculture Department raised its estimate of 2012-13 U.S. cotton exports significantly and cut its forecasts for domestic production and ending stocks. Those numbers are clearly supportive of American prices and probably played a major role in carrying nearby futures higher Friday afternoon. However, USDA analysts also boosted their estimate of 2012-13 global carryout by over 2.0 million bales, which obviously holds negative implications for the world situation and for international prices. That probably explains the moderate losses suffered by cotton futures in Sunday night-Monday morning trading. March cotton slipped 0.18 cents to 75.42 cents/pound in early-morning activity, while December moved 0.39 cents lower at 78.65.
Cotton traders in the U.S. seem to be fighting those in the international markets in the wake of the January 11 USDA reports. The Agriculture Department raised its estimate of 2012-13 U.S. cotton exports significantly and cut its forecasts for domestic production and ending stocks, which seems quite supportive of the short-term U.S. outlook. However, USDA analysts also boosted their estimate of 2012-13 global carryout by over 2.0 million bales, most of which will apparently go to China. Indeed, talk of a widely anticipated sale of a small portion of that stockpile reportedly pulled New York futures downward Monday afternoon. However, bulls reasserted themselves overnight, as exemplified by the 0.45-cent March futures surge to 75.97 cents/pound; December rose 0.16 cents to 79.30 in early trading.

We've received a bunch of questions since our launch of Rackspace Private Cloud Software (code-named Alamo) about how we are using open source software. How is Alamo licensed? Are we adding restrictions to the components? What happens to the components if you stop using Alamo? And many more. If you have these same questions, this blog post is for you!
First, Alamo is a compilation of everything you need to go from bare metal to a production OpenStack-powered private cloud in 30 minutes or less. Boot from the free ISO, enter some IP information and set a password, go get a coffee and you'll have a running cloud before you know it. Rackspace made all of the decisions regarding the operating system, hypervisor, version of OpenStack, automation and deployment tools, and all of the configurations for those components. The software is available for free and Rackspace offers optional support for companies wishing to have our experts on-call 24×7.
Here's the breakdown on what is contained in Alamo and what their specific licenses are. In addition to the included components and their individual licenses, Rackspace wrapped a copyright around the entire compilation the same way folks like Ubuntu and Red Hat do with Linux and the packages of open source software they compile. There is a simple end user license agreement from Rackspace that grants the user free access to the Rackspace-branded compilation, but it's important to remember that all of the components are already free and open source and we do not place any additional restrictions on them.
So are the components open? Yes! Think about it like this: just like a musician that uses a guitar chord from an electric guitar and a piano stab from a grand piano to create a song that they copyright and distribute, Rackspace has done the same with Alamo. A musician does not restrict other people from using or sampling a piano note or a guitar chord because they used it in their song, just like Rackspace doesn't restrict how people use the open source components of Alamo. The underlying licenses (GPL, Apache, etc.) define how and what people can do with those components. Although we've configured OpenStack to be deployed and usable, we haven't forked the code. In fact, we're using 100 percent "community" OpenStack code.
Bottom line: Rackspace Private Cloud Software uses open source components with large communities, and the end user license agreement from Rackspace for the compilation grants you the rights to use the compilation Rackspace has built and distributes. We have an end user license agreement to protect the Rackspace brand, and to protect the branded (but open source) software contained in Alamo that we redistribute.

I'm not trying to bash or anything, I'm actually liking it here, which is why I mention this. If you guys are serious about running a forum and membership here continues to grow, at some point you will need a dedicated server just to handle the traffic load. You can get a small starter server on the cheap, usually for less than a hundred bucks a month. Sometimes you can catch sales or special deals that will knock the price down lower too. It may not be needed right this minute, but it is something you might want to consider in the future.

Beware of a Failed Bounce
The indices did a very nice job of building on Friday's intraday reversal, but it was much easier to be a seller than a buyer. Many folks who jumped in on weakness last week were using the strength today to lock in good gains, but it was a challenge to put additional money to work. The major comments I heard today were complaints about filling too fast, particularly Apple (AAPL).
What made it even more challenging was that after the first hour of trading, there was very little movement. AAPL continued to run and breadth was extremely strong, but there weren't many gains if you weren't already in the market this morning....270 more words left in this article.

Six Crafty Class Projects to Make with Paper
I have some pretty exciting news: starting next Thursday, I'm going to be teaching an after school crafting class at the local Elementary school! Of course, I wanted to focus on teaching the kids about crafty reuse. I'm really excited about the chance to show this group of first- and second-graders the treasure trove of craft supplies right in their recycle bin and in nature.
Here are some of the crafty projects I've rounded up to share with them (not necessarily in order of appearance):
10 Responses to Six Crafty Class Projects to Make with Paper
Any way i can get a template for the starburst magazine craft? Is there a tutorial on the whole project? i couldn't seem to find it on the website.
Hi Becky,
I taught a craft class at my kids elementary school and the first thing we made was a sketchbook from recycled materials. I used cereal boxes for the cover and scrap paper for the inner pages and then sewed down the center. The class involved block printing, embroidery, knitting and sewing so the kids used the sketchbooks to plan future designs.
I'm not sure where I got the original idea from but here are 2 links I just found: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TogblAjIeZU
Hope you enjoy the classes, they look like a lot of fun!
I remember as a kid I used to use junk-mail coupons (the ones on newspaper-like material) for papier mache. Another one that might be fun for the kids is to take colorful junk mail and make bracelets using the gum-wrapper linking method. You can follow the instructions here, just make them much smaller, obviously: http://candywrapperpurse.blogspot.com/2007/08/chip-wrapper-purse.html
I was going to suggest paper mache, but it was already suggested. At home we always used a flour and water paste for it.
Another idea is to use old magazines/junk mail, etc to make rolled up beads and make jewelry.

xi. Depending on this corporeality (i.e. heart-base) mind element and
mind-consciousness element (mano-dhaatu and mano-vi~n~naa.na-dhaatu) arise; that
corporeality is related to the mind-element, the mind consciousness element and
their concomitants by dependence condition.
Dependence Condition: Depending by way of Nissaya condition is similar to the
trees which depend on the earth as their base support.

PROSPECT Hospice trustee David Barrand found himself helping out the charity's Highworth shop staff and volunteers by doing anything asked of him when he agreed to be a 'slave' for the day.
The event was part of an incentive scheme to get more shop donors to make their gifts eligible for Gift Aid.
David, who in his regular day job is a senior manager at Intel in Old Town, promised that he would make himself available to help out in whatever way was required.
The shop is one of 18 across the area which is encouraging customers to sign up to the Gift Aid scheme which adds an additional 25 per cent to donations to the shop.
The Highworth store encouraged nearly half of all its donors during a four-week period to sign up for the scheme, and won David's unlimited services for a whole day.
He said: "Since I became a trustee three years ago I have become really passionate about the important part that shops play towards the vital funding of Prospect Hospice.
"The Gift Aid scheme can bring a considerable boost to local charities, and it doesn't cost anything at all to people when they sign up for it.
"As a reward for the team at Highworth's efforts in encouraging their donors, I was only too glad to be there for the day, and they've really put me through my paces."
Prospect's Highworth shop manager Paula Whitney said: "It's credit to the team of volunteers and staff here that we were able to get so many people registered for Gift Aid, and it has been good to have David helping us out for the day.
"It is good for one of our trustees to gain an insight into what a day in the shop is like, and he has really mucked in and been a part of the team.
"David would be welcome to come back and help out at the shop any time he wanted."
Last year, the Prospect shops raised £1.7m in income towards the £5.8m it costs to run the hospice.
The retail operation is always looking for volunteers to help in stores, on the vans and at the warehouse.

Andrew Buchanan shot an even-par 71 at the CIF/CGA State Boys Golf Championships, good enough to tie for eighth place.
Although Andrew Buchanan fell short in his bid to claim the individual title at last week's CIF/CGA State Boys Golf Championships – finishing five shots behind the winner – he couldn't have played the final hole of his high school career much better.
The Los Altos Hills resident, who started his round on the 10th, capped it with a birdie on the longest hole at Quail Lodge & Golf Club in Carmel.
"It was a nice finish to my high school golf career, and it felt good to birdie the par 5 ninth hole, which was my last hole today," Buchanan said after the June 5 event.
The birdie on that 541-yard hole was his fourth of the day, guaranteeing the Menlo School senior an even-par round of 71. That was good enough to tie three other golfers for eighth place.
"He was certainly hoping to shoot a couple of strokes better at state – and had two short putts lip out – but everyone has a story about what could have been," said Dave Buchanan, Andrew's father and Menlo's coach.
Quail Lodge is a short course (6,449 yards), so Buchanan kept his drivers in the bag most of the day. He used drivers on only two tee shots, according to his dad.
Buchanan got off to a solid start, bagging two birdies and just one bogey at the turn. That left him 1-under par with nine holes remaining.
Buchanan posted just as many birdies on the front nine, but his three bogeys bogged him down. It took that birdie on the ninth hole to save Buchanan from slipping to 12th place.
The tournament featured a field of 54; qualifiers included the top nine individuals and top three teams of six from each regional final (North and South). Buchanan also shot par at the NorCal tourney, tying for fourth.
"I guess the thing that stands out to me about Andrew's postseason this year was that he did not shoot over par in any round (state, NorCal, Central Coast Section finals and CCS regionals)," Dave said.
During the regular season, Andrew led Menlo to an undefeated league season. He was either medalist or co-medalist in every match.
"It has been fun to watch Andrew grow up during his high school career, and I really respect his commitment to golf and putting in the practice times that he did," Dave said.
Andrew graduated from Menlo Friday and will next play for Southern Methodist University on a scholarship.
"It is definitely bittersweet to be leaving Menlo," he said. "I have really enjoyed my teammates and I am looking forward to playing for SMU in the fall."
Before that, Buchanan is scheduled to compete in a slew of summer events, starting with the 102nd California State Amateur. The tourney is slated to begin Monday at the Monterey Peninsula Country Club.

No structure threatened; cause undetermined
Ukiah Daily Journal
A vegetation fire broke out on the Yokayo Rancheria off Old River Road Tuesday morning and was quickly controlled by firefighters.
The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said the fire was reported around 11:40 a.m. Aug. 6 by passersby who saw the large cloud of smoke.
Chief John Bartlett of the combined Ukiah Valley Fire District and Ukiah Fire Department, which was assisting Cal Fire, said the fire was about a quarter of an acre in size and located in heavy brush, which firefighters had to cut through to reach the flames.
Bartlett said the cause of the fire was undetermined, though it seemed a bit suspicious in nature given that no structures were near it and there were no obvious natural causes.
"We don't know the why, what or who," he said, adding that Cal Fire will be investigating the cause.
Soon after the flames were doused with the help of water drops by a Cal Fire helicopter, Battalion Chief Terry Guerrero said crews were clearing out tree branches and other vegetation near the fire to "cut a fire trail by separating the fuel from the fire."
Guerrero said the cause of the fire was under investigation.

[UPDATE] February 12, 2012-- 11:30 am
The passanger in the Mitsubishi Galant, Michelle Campbell, died at 12:01 am February 11, 2012, from injuries sustained in this crash. The other vehicle involved in the crash, a Ford CV, was a marked Florida Highway Patrol vehicle. The driver of the CV, Detrick McClellan, and the driver of the Galant, Tennille Smith, were both taken to the hospital in serious condition.
Quincy , Florida -- February 10, 2012 --
A 2006 Ford CV being driven by Detrick McClellan, 33, was traveling southbound on County Road 268 north of Moore Road in the southbound lane entering a curve to the left. A 2006 Mitsubishi Galant was traveling northbound on County Road 268 north of Moore Road in the northbound lane approaching the same curve.
For unknown reasons, the Ford traveled off of the roadway onto the shoulder on the west side of the road. McClellan attempted to reenter the roadway causing the Ford to travel out of control. While the Ford was traveling side ways across the northbound lane, the front of the Galant collided with the right side of the Ford.which came to a rest facing north on the east side shoulder of County Road 268.
The Galant came to rest facing east partially in the northbound lane and partially on the east shoulder. The driver Tennille Smith, 35, and his passenger Michelle Campbell, 51 were taken to Tallahassee Memorial Hospital. Campbell is listed in critical condition, while Smith is treated for serious injuries.
Charges are pending at this time.

Further study details as provided by Novartis:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Estimated Annualized Aggregate Relapse Rate (ARR) [ Time Frame: Baseline to end of study (Month 24) ]The ARR is defined as the number of confirmed relapses in a year. A relapse is defined as the appearance of a new or worsening of a previously stable or improving pre-existing neurological abnormality, separated by at least 30 days from onset of a preceding relapse. The abnormality must be present for at least 24 hours and occur in the absence of fever or infection. The annualized ARR for each treatment group was the mean of the annualized ARRs for all patients in the group calculated as the total number of confirmed relapses divided by the total number of days on study, multiplied by 365.25.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Percentage of Patients Free of Disability Progression at Month 24 Assessed With the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) [ Time Frame: Baseline to end of study (Month 24) ]EDSS assesses disability in 8 functional systems. An overall score ranging from 0 (normal) to 10 (death due to MS) is calculated. Disability progression was determined by the following: One point increase from baseline in patients with baseline EDSS score from 0 to 5.0; or half a point increase in patients with baseline EDSS score of 5.5 or above. A 3-month confirmed disability progression required onset EDSS, 3-month confirming EDSS, and all EDSS in between to meet the disability progression criteria. Percent of free of disability progression was calculated using the Kaplan Meier method.
- Number of New or Newly Enlarged T2 Lesions at Month 24 in Comparison With Baseline [ Time Frame: Baseline to end of study (Month 24) ]The number of new or newly enlarged T2 lesions at Month 24 in comparison to baseline was assessed with T2-weighted magnetic resonance image (MRI) scans. A T2-weighted MRI scan utilizes particular values of the echo time (TE) and the repetition time (TR) parameters of image acquisition. Inflammation and tissue damage are seen as bright areas in T2 images and are often referred to as T2 lesions. T2-weighted MRI scans are a sensitive way to evaluate the brain for demyelinating diseases, such as multiple sclerosis.

Hello, I have been designing a personal website for myself, Not a css professional by any means. I have mainly been following tutorials online on how to transfer my Photoshop layout to the web. Having a big problem trying to layout the horizontal menu though. I have found a style I really like and would like to implement the style into mine. The style: [http://betanightclub.com/ [URL="http://3.7designs.co/blog/"]http://3.7designs.co/blog/](http://betanightclub.com/) Right now I have a basic menu that I have been following from a tut and I have been trying to code it to look like the ones I like, but lets just say im still trying!
My site if you would like to take a look and please feel free to give me your input on things that perhaps may be wrong.http://www.joecampoli.com/test
Most likely you'll want to use display:inline-block; and set a width and height. Inside of that li, you can use a heading to define the navigation item, and maybe a paragraph or <small> to define the description. Take a look at Veerle's blog to see how she does her top three boxes like that.
Hi. Have you already fixed this? Viewing in Chrome and the top menu (at the right) is already horizontal. The only other menu is the one in the footer, and that's horizontal as well :).
Hey Ryan, what im trying to do is style it like the ones in the links i provided up top.
It's nothing special. The <li>'s are floated, basically. That's it. Then this style is applied to each anchor (they have each anchor defined separately) :).
a#nav_video {
height: 85px;
width: 109px;
display: block;
text-indent: -9999px;
background: url(../GFX/Global/Nav.png) -545px top;
The "sexiness" of the menu is just the image there. The text-indent takes away the text you'd put inside the anchor of the HTML and hides it so that it won't affect the view of it. It'll come back though if CSS is off :).
Here is the link to the image in question.
The bottom part of the image I linked is used as the hover state. That image I linked to is a CSS sprite. It combines multiple images into one file for less HTTP requests.
is there a way to accomplish the menu with just css? im trying some different examples but really throws my divs out of whack
Well yes, but an image would be a lot easier :).
Show us your current attempt and we will work from there.
Here's his current attempt:
thanks TehYoyo i just did that haha.... need to work on spacing and possible separators though. and im not sure why the numbers are indented a slight touch.
The numbers are indented because of the padding you set on the anchors. It affects the first line of text since it's an inline element. Setting the anchor to display:inline-block would fix this, or remove the padding altogether. I recommend the first option.
Looks like you are doing pretty good. The page hs changed since last I saw it so I assume you're still making progress on the page. You're probably going to have to throw some <span>'s in there inside the anchor to replicate the horizontal "break" / border effect.
On your page, the Gallery,Links and VIP can all have spans wrapped around that text and give that a bottom border to replicate that effect.
I am going to take your tips and work on it. Packing it in for the night but I hope you can check back tomorrow if you have time and see how i did. Thank you both for your help and input!
I work tomorrow morning until 1 PM (ET) but if you have it updated with your current attempt by then, I'll surely be able to help you along with any snags you have :). Or if I don't get to it, any other member here is sure to help.
My attempt has been done but im thinkin, maaaaybe I might give images a try
It would certainly be easier .
I went to your site though, and it's certainly not a bad attempt.
Any chance you can point me in the right direction?
In what, making the image? If so, unfortunately that's not my area of expertise.
If not, then I don't know what you could need help on, since after image creation it's straight forward: placing it on an element :).
I can make the image, if you want. It's not that I usually outsource myself, but I've been looking for a chance to stretch my Photoshop brain and here it is!
I assume that's what you want (really, b/c Ryan said that). I just skimmed over the thread.
Edit: Not to discourage you from doing your own work, of course.
Thank you TehYoyo I appreciate the offer but I have the images The layout is my own work as well. Im just wondering where i put the image in the css code. I will fiddle around!
Sure, no problem! Good luck with it - if you have questions, you always know where to ask.
hmmm, cant seem to get the hover state to show. Link

Protecting Yourself in the Midst of an Influenza Outbreak
The recent flu crisis associated with the spread of the H1N1 influenza virus has prompted many people to take extra precautions to protect themselves from infection, particularly in areas where cases of the virus have been confirmed. The influenza A (H1N1) virus is being carefully monitored by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), which continues to publish up to date information to help educate the public and minimize the spread of the virus.
Preventing transmission from person to person to the degree possible is an overreaching goal in controlling the spread of the H1N1 virus as well as other illnesses. The influenza virus is believed to be spread through respiratory drops from an infected person, which are often released through coughing and sneezing. Another person can contract the virus when these droplets enter his or her nose or mouth, or by touching a surface that has been contaminated and then touching the eyes, nose or mouth. While we cannot prevent the virus with 100% certainty, here are a few of the recommendations the CDC has published on its website for helping reduce the chance that you will contract the virus:
- Wash your hands with soap for 15-20 seconds often.
- Practice a healthy lifestyle including getting enough sleep, eating a healthy diet, being physically active and avoiding stress.
- Do not touch your nose, eyes or mouth.
- Avoid close contact with those who are ill.
- Consider wearing an FDA approved facemask when entering crowded situations in areas where the virus has been confirmed.
- Consider using an N95 or higher respirator when close contact with an infected person is necessary.
MEDNET Direct offers a wide selection of personal protective equipment including N95 respirators, surgical masks, gloves, gowns and sanitizing wipes that meet or exceed government requirements.
The Centers for Disease Control has provided a plethora of information to help the public take appropriate actions regarding the flu crisis. Please visit the CDC website for the most up to date information.

Royals best Verlander with big five-run seventh
Infante delivers go-ahead two-run single in finale before All-Star break
KANSAS CITY -- Nice to have an alarm clock when Justin Verlander has put your bats to sleep.
"The slumbering offense came awake in the seventh inning," Royals manager Ned Yost said.
Did it ever. The Royals interrupted their zzzzz's for a five-run inning to beat Verlander and the Detroit Tigers, 5-2, salvaging the finale of a four-game series on Sunday at Kauffman Stadium.
The victory got Kansas City (48-46) back to 6 1/2 games behind front-running Detroit in the American League Central going into the All-Star break. Last year at the break, the Royals were 43-49 and eight games out.
"Even though it's one win, you feel like you could've taken three out of four with a couple of well-placed hits," Yost said.
"But we're eight games better than we were at this time last year. It's a difference of being at .500 coming back from the break and two games over. And it's the difference of being 6 1/2 games out or 8 1/2 games out, so it was a big game for us."
On this sunny 83-degree afternoon with 23,424 fans in the stands, Verlander breezed through six shutout innings. He was looking like the Verlander of old, the one who stymied the Royals regularly for many years.
And he had a 2-0 lead after the Tigers scored two runs in the third inning against left-hander Bruce Chen, the Royals' rotation stand-in for Jason Vargas. Chen went 5 1/3 innings.
"He only really gave up one run, the second run was a fluky run," Yost said.
Indeed, it appeared that Chen had the third out on J.D. Martinez's pop fly into short left field. Raul Ibanez charged in from deep left and Alcides Escobar drifted out from shortstop. But the ball dropped between them and a run scored.
"I never called for it, I couldn't get there," Ibanez said.
Escobar had another problem -- he couldn't see the ball.
"I was going to catch that ball, but I lost it in the sun," he said.
So Verlander had a 2-0 lead and was cruising.
"Verlander's a great pitcher, he's really tough and especially when he sniffs the end of the game and has a lead like that, he really turns it on and comes out with his best stuff," said the Royals' Eric Hosmer.
Except then the alarm went off. Billy Butler, Mike Moustakas and Ibanez (ending his 0-for-25 spin) all hit singles to load the bases with no outs.
Escobar hit a little tap toward the mound that neither Verlander nor shortstop Eugenio Suarez could handle. To hear Tigers manager Brad Ausmus, it was a ball of mysterious movements.
"The hit by Escobar is probably the one that stung the most, because I don't know if it hit something, the way it came off his bat," Ausmus said. "It took a left turn and it looked like it was going to Justin's left, and it took a turn to his right and just kind of bounced by him, Sometimes that happens. What are you going to do?"
So Escobar's little tap was an RBI single, scoring Butler. Jarrod Dyson rolled into an out as Moustakas crossed the plate for a 2-2 tie. Now, Yost sent out his resting catcher, Salvador Perez, to pinch-hit for Brett Hayes with runners at second and third.
"That changed the whole complexion of the game," Yost said. "If I leave Hayes in there, they pitch to Hayes and bring the infield in. I put Sal in that position and he has great numbers against Verlander (14-for-30, .467). You saw what happened. They wound up intentionally walking him and a big inning resulted."
Yep, Ausmus called in left-handed reliever Ian Krol and he intentionally walked Perez to again load the bases. After the second out, Al Alburquerque came in to face Omar Infante in a right-on-right matchup. It didn't work, Infante smacked a two-run single to left.
"I know he throws a lot of sliders and I waited for that pitch, and I made good contact," Infante said.
So Ausmus switched to left-hander Phil Coke against Hosmer. That didn't work either. Hosmer ripped a line drive that bounced over the wall in right-center for a ground-rule double that scored the inning's fifth run.
That made a winner of Yordano Ventura, making his first relief appearance with 1 2/3 scoreless innings behind Chen.
"When he came in, I told him, 'Kiddo, hold 'em right here. We're going to score some runs, you've got a chance to get a win,' " Yost said. "And, at the end of the game, he had a big smile on his face, so it worked out."
Wade Davis pitched a perfect eighth and Greg Holland a perfect ninth, getting his 25th save.
"These guys have an extremely talented ballclub," Verlander said. "We came in and won three out of four, and if you had said we had done that at the beginning of the series, I think we'd take it every time."
