This is a very unique little record for recording your voice right on to the record. Quite a sophisticated technology for the time period when the Megaphone was in use.
Here is the wording on the wrapper.
Take this metal disc and play it as you would any ordinary recond on a phonograph. To obtain the best results use a loud tone needle. Sing into the sound box loudly and distinctly. If possible use a megaphone. When you have finished, play it over again and hear YOUR VOICE.
It is advisable before using to let the needle go once over the disc to remove dust particles which may have accumulated.
PatentApplied For
If any one has any information on the exact time period these were issued - would appreciate learning about it.
I know that Edison discs where introduced in 1930 using a unique machine to record the voice - as I have serveral of these.
Thanks for looking

I hate that at a moment of stress trying to get ready for a job thing this software template wont work !!! it won't copy the words to the next card - it deletes everything. It won't pick the color I want !! I screamed and ripped them up . I keep giving you guys a chance and its a waste of money trying to make the software work. UGHHHHHHHHHH MAD !!!!!!
This review is from AVERY Business Card - Tall, 8 per sheet:
As a freelance designer/printer, I really don't use products like this because of the template issues stated in other reviews. However, if you have the ability, convert the template into vectors. Save the file from word as a PDF, then open it in a program like Adobe Illustrator or GIMP (free program like illustrator). This seemed to cause the fewest problems for me, and all you really need is the free trial of Illustrator and not use word at all.

I read all the glowing reviews, but after trying to use the template I found that it was not all that easy. I cannot believe I am the only person that finds working with this product difficult. The curdser does not move where you want it, you can't change the pitch and you can't change anything on the card. I have used some templates before and they were pretty easy to use. I am getty pretty frustrated.

Oregon House backs popular vote to elect president
SALEM, Ore. (AP) The Oregon House has voted to join a movement seeking to elect the president by the national popular vote.
The legislation would require Oregon to cast its seven Electoral College ballots for the candidate who wins the national vote, rather than the one who gets the most votes in Oregon.
It would take effect only if a compact is enacted in states with a majority in the electoral college.
Nine states with 132 electoral votes have enacted it, about half of the 270 needed to win the presidency.
The House's 38-21 vote Thursday sends the measure to the Senate.
Supporters say the workings of the Electoral College mean presidential candidates ignore all but a handful of swing states.
Critics say Oregon shouldn't interfere with decisions made by the Constitution's authors.

New breast tissue on ultrasound?
- Question from Grannie: Hi, I am a 4-year breast cancer survivor. On my last mammogram I was called back for an ultrasound and was told that they had found new breast tissue that was not there last year. Also, I am postmenopausal, and have lost a lot of weight since the mammogram a year ago. I had never heard of having new breast tissue at my age.
- Answers - Cecilia Brennecke I would be suspicious of that as well. I don't know how old you are, but if you take estrogen, new tissue can appear on a mammogram. If you are not undergoing hormone replacement therapy, then a new area of tissue should be regarded with suspicion. I would ask for a biopsy. When you lose weight, the breast may be smaller and look more condensed on a mammogram, but a new area of tissue should not develop. What I do when there's an area of abnormality on a mammogram is solve it on the mammogram by doing additional views. I then go to ultrasound to see if I can tell if the area of concern is normal breast tissue or a cyst or a mass.
- Tonight we have talked a lot about tests—tests performed within the hospital as well as your own breast exams and your doctor's exams. If you find a lump in your breast that persists, even if the mammogram and ultrasound are read as normal, it's important to follow and evaluate the lump. We do have a tendency to favor technology over something as simple as your own breast examination. Of course, you want to be completely reassured by the normal test report, but again, about 20 percent of women are diagnosed with breast cancer based on a palpable or visible abnormality that is not seen by mammography. It's important to take this a step further with ultrasound or the other tests described above by Dr. Brennecke.
- Cecilia Brennecke The other issue is that biopsy of the breast is a very simple tool. We don't want to do unnecessary biopsies, but if you or your doctor has a concern, and the imaging is negative, and the concern is real, you can't stop there—you have to obtain tissue. I do biopsies using imaging guidance. It's quick and painless, and gives you a diagnosis: normal, abnormal or needs to be evaluated by a surgeon. Trust your own instincts, and do not be swayed by a negative test.
- You make an important point with regard to the advances in, and the ease and accuracy of, biopsy techniques today. When the biopsy procedure is guided by high quality imaging, you are likely to obtain a good sample that accurately represents the area of concern. Also, the core biopsy can be done through a very small incision. The scars that biopsies caused in the past can usually be avoided today.

Boston, MA
BAC Student Awarded Landscape Preservation Fellowship
Historic Preservation Graduate Student, Cheryl Miller, awarded 2014 Rudy J. Favretti Fellowship
The Boston Architectural College is pleased to announce that Cheryl Miller, a student in the College's Master of Design Studies in Historic Preservation program and Landscape Institute Alumni, was awarded the 2014 Rudy J. Favretti Fellowship.
In a continuing effort to build a comprehensive record of historic gardens in the Commonwealth of Virginia, the Garden Club of Virginia (GCV) offers fellowship programs for graduate students working towards a MLA or equivalent program. Fellows, under the supervision of professional landscape architect, William D. Rieley of Rieley and Associates in Charlottesville, Virginia, will create a final report with measured drawings and a written history of their assigned property. GCV fellows receive a $6,000 stipend for the three-month program as well as compensation for project related living and travel expenses.
Graduate students enrolled in an accredited landscape architecture or equivalent program such as landscape or architectural history, archaeology, historic preservation, or horticulture are invited to apply, and are selected by The Research Fellowship Committee consisting of members of the Garden Club of Virginia, professional landscape architects, practitioners in the field of horticulture and historic preservation, and educators. Only one student is selected to receive each of the two available fellowships: The Rudy J. Favretti Fellowship and William D. Rieley Fellowship.
Cheryl, this year's recipient of the 2014 Rudy J. Favretti Fellowship, will be studying the gardens and grounds of Belvoir Farms Estate in The Plains, VA. She will spend three months visiting, researching and documenting the selected historic site under the supervision of the landscape architect for the Garden Club of Virginia, William D. Rieley, of Rieley & Associates, Charlottesville, Virginia.
Cheryl earned a certificate in Landscape Design from the Landscape Institute (LI) at the Boston Architectural College in 2011, where she identified her interest in historical landscape preservation while completing her design capstone project, "Placemaking in Historic South Natick." She is currently enrolled in the College's Master of Design Studies program in Historic Preservation (MDS-HP), augmenting her interest specifically in historic landscape preservation through an independent study with LI instructor Phyllis Andersen. The low-residency online format of the MDS-HP enables Cheryl to pursue the degree from Richmond, VA where she lives and will engage in the fellowship opportunity. Cheryl also holds a Ph.D. in Molecular Genetics and Cell Biology from the University of Chicago, and a Bachelor's Degree in Biology from the University of Pennsylvania.
The Garden Club of Virginia is an association of 47 clubs whose members are made up of more than 3,300 civic leaders throughout the state. These members are dedicated to promoting gardening among amateurs; protecting native trees, wild flowers and birds; encouraging conservation of natural resources; promoting civic planting; encouraging roadside beautification, and aiding in the restoration and preservation of historic gardens in Virginia. Most notably, the Garden Club of Virginia is recognized for its Historic Garden Week, a nine-day statewide open house of private and public gardens. Income from the tour is used to fund restoration projects of historic gardens and landscapes which are open to the public throughout Virginia. Over fourteen million dollars has been raised since its inception in 1929, enabling more than forty historic sites to have been restored.
The Master of Design Studies in Historic Preservation at the BAC addresses the technical and cultural issues confronting today's preservationists. Students explore the philosophical and ethical roots of preservation and gain practical experience in preservation, restoration and rehabilitation of historic structures and sites. It is delivered in a low-residency format that combines online and face-to-face learning. For the first time, students and working professionals earn accredited masters degrees in historic preservation from wherever they live and work. Key to the low-residency format are brief periods of study at the BAC's Newbury Street campus, in which students use Boston's historic built environment as a laboratory.
The Landscape Institute at the BAC offers certificates, courses, workshops, and special programs in landscape design, stewardship, history, horticulture, sustainability, and preservation. The LI mission is to provide a broad understanding of the natural and cultural influences that shape the designed and built environment, to prepare students for leadership in landscape design, stewardship, and preservation action. The program's comprehensive offerings are for the design novice as well as seasoned professionals. Courses are open enrollment; some are onsite, online, or a combination of the two.

Finding Clinical Trials for Diabetes
I have been researching the islet cell transplant and trying to find a place that will accept me for over a year now. When UC had offered it a few years ago they said I didn't have enough complications to be in the trials for their hospital. I have had diabetes since I was 13 months and am going to be 25 in September. I have minor kidney damage, small problems with my vision, and small amount of neuoropathy. I want to try to get in these studies and hopefully get something done before too many complications come up. My bloodsugars have been ranging about 250 to 60, sometimes up to 300, which seems high but is a lot more under control than it has been for over 5 years.
I have tried changing my diet, exercise and eating the same things but the only thing that has seemed to work at all it giving frequent booster shots to even out my meals. I quit smoking to try to get the clinical trial but still I cant find any luck on getting straight answers on where to apply or even if I am eligible to get it done. I am willing to travel and an willing to pay for it if I have to. Please give my some direction on what to do or where I can go before it may be to late.
There are several dimensions to responding to your question: One is to answer your direct question about where to find transplant programs that might include you in an islet cell transplant study. The other major dimension is to make sure that you realize what you would be getting yourself into if you were to participate in such a study.
With regard to the first question, I suggest you contact the transplant center with whom you had previous contact - they would know what other centers are available that are performing transplants these days in people with type 1 diabetes, what their track records are and the criteria they are using for selection of subjects.
In terms of the question of whether you understand what you are getting yourself into, I am concerned from what you write that you may be open to undertaking a transplant without full discussion and understanding of not only potential benefits but also potential risks. There was a great deal of enthusiasm for islet cell transplants several years ago because of some well publicized good results. However, those results in limited centers have not been matched generally throughout the US and the world, and the pace at which islet cell transplants are being performed has slowed.
Keep in mind that diabetes is "for keeps" and that when you are looking for a form of therapy that you consider whether that therapy has a suitable likelihood of success and small enough risk that you are not taking on long-term risk for short-term gain. This still constitutes an experimental form of therapy with relatively little long-term evidence concerning benefits and risks.

(UPDATED COVERAGE March 4) SALINAS, Calif. — The Agricultural Leadership Council received the Natividad Medical Foundation's annual Hero Award to hono grower-shipper contributions to farm worker healthcare in the Salinas Valley.
In a recent two-month fundraising campaign, council members raised $214,400. About 80% of the Natividad Medical Center patients are farm workers or have other ties to agriculture.
The council, founded in 2010 by John D'Arrigo, president of D'Arrigo Bros. Co. of California, has raised $820,050 in three years, mostly for new equipment. But the recent focus has been on providing interpreters for a diverse patient population.
"We have 62 languages spoken in the hospital," said Linda Ford, foundation president. "In the Salinas Valley there are 28,000 people from Oaxaca. A third of the people arriving here are from Oaxaca or indigenous."
"A lot of the doctors couldn't communicate with the Triqui and Mixtec speakers," D'Arrigo said.
The effort so far has trained 36 indigenous language interpreters who are working in hospitals across California, Ford said.
For D'Arrigo, who said he's routinely 20% to 30% short of the labor his company needs, supporting the hospital has become more important.
"The agricultural community is trying to do something to take care of farm workers, their families and healthcare needs," he said. "We survive on the work they do with us in these fields. Our work force is dwindling.
"This is just one way to give back and also help us at the same time by keeping them healthy," he said. "If their families are taken care of here, then you have a much more contented worker."
The Agricultural Leadership Council started off with 22 members and has grown to 116.
Among others on hand to share the honor at the Feb. 28 reception were Mike Antle, executive vice president of Tanimura & Antle; Steve Church and Tom Church, partners in Church Bros. LLC; Dennis Donohue, president of Royal Rose LLC; Sammy Duda, vice president of Duda Farm Fresh Foods; and Joe Pezzini, chief operating officer at Ocean Mist Farms.
"This is the typical example of what I've consistently observed in our industry, that where there's prosperity there's generosity," Donohue said. "It's great to see the whole industry gathered around it."
The award ceremony followed a preview of an art exhibit. Members of the Monterey Bay Plein Air Painters Association depicted grower-shippers' operations through a production season. Half of the proceeds from sales of the paintings will benefit the hospital.
The exhibit is dubbed "Plein Air Art: From Field to Fork."

AFC Gas and Cheney FC will contest the final of the Swindon Sunday League Knockout Cup after two dramatic semi-final victories.
Division One side Gas were 1-0 victors over New Century thanks to a Sam English goal mid-way through the second period, while Cheney had to rely on penalties to get past fellow Division Three side KC Globe after their game finished 3-3 at the end of extra time.
Gas boss Alan Blake was impressed with the standard of football on display from both teams and wasn't surprised just a single goal proved to be the difference.
"It was a really good game which was a pleasure to be a part of," he said.
"There were two really good teams on the pitch, both having a real go at each other and I am really pleased we were able to come out on top in the end.
"We played well and scored a good goal and we're just looking forward to the final now.
"It's always good to play in a final and we will be going all out to get the win."
Goalkeeper Jordan Northmore was the hero for Cheney as he saved a Globe penalty in normal time before stopping a further two in the shootout, while a brace from Shane Hibbert and one from Aaron Welland ensured Cheney made it into the penalty competition.
Paul Morrison, joint boss of Cheney, knows his side will be massive underdogs when the final comes around but is just thrilled to have the chance to compete for some silverware.
"After we won on penalties all of the players and some of the supporters bundled on top of the goalkeeper, it was a brilliant feeling," he said.
"We have been in the same league as Globe since the team started in Division Seven four years ago and have never beaten them before so to do it in a cup semi-final is amazing.
"We know we will be massive underdogs for the final but that's okay with us because we just can't wait to be a part of it all."

Road rage looks like a playground skirmish when compared to air rage these days.
Just look at what has happened on flights in the past two months: Passengers on a New York-bound Iceland Air flight duct-taped an allegedly drunk and unruly passenger to his seat. A woman on a JetBlue flight to San Diego reportedly became physical with a flight attendant when another passenger was moved to a premium seat for free because of a broken in-flight TV. A passenger heading to Atlanta, accused of slapping a crying 19-month-old and uttering a racial epithet at the toddler, was fired from his job because of it and now faces assault charges.
The headlines seem deceptive when you consider the actual statistics, which reveal a decline in unruly passengers — 101 incidents last year compared to a high of 330 in 2004, according to Federal Aviation Administration reports.
So why does it feel so much worse now? Maybe because air travel has gone from a pampered, exciting adventure to an anxiety-heightened, obstacle-ridden necessity — and recent reports of a sequester causing air travel delays and a proposal allowing in-flight cellphone use have driven blood pressures to the boiling point.
Remember when United's "fly the friendly skies" actually existed? On my first cross-country flight 33 years ago, I got a free in-flight meal, kid's goody bag with playing cards and a coloring book and a trip to the cockpit to meet the pilot.
Those days have given way to overbooked flights and planes stranded on tarmacs. Airlines have slapped fees on everything from checked bags to blankets and pillows. And airport security checkpoints are a hassle of long lines, shoe removal, full-body scanners and Transportation Security Administration agents who don't always know their own rules.
Case in point: Two weeks ago, a 3-year-old in a wheelchair sobbed as TSA agents discussed patting her down, took away her stuffed animal and told her mother to stop videotaping the screening. When the video surfaced online, the TSA apologized and promised more training for its agents.
Is it any wonder why news of potential aggravations has travelers venting on online discussion boards?
Last week, in a political standoff with congressional Republicans, the White House warned that a sequester — which would include cuts to air traffic controllers — could cause 90-minute delays and eventual flight cancellations. If nothing else, the scare tactic served as a reminder of how precarious air travel has become.
That's why talk of possible personal cellphone use has travelers sounding off. The practice is widely accepted on most European and Middle Eastern airlines, but it still is barred from flights in U.S. air space.
Some airline industry experts say the United States will join the fold eventually, a few even predicting it by year's end. When it happens, we will just have to brace ourselves for the next potential air rage trigger.
Only one solution is truly in the hands of passengers — dig deep to find patience and compassion for our fellow travelers.
I saw the difference that makes a couple of years ago while flying with my daughter, who was then 6 months old. Twice, the ticketing agent issued an incorrect child boarding pass, which we didn't discover until we reached the front of the security line both times.
Frustrated, and with our departure time fast approaching, I burst into tears. Fifteen minutes later, with the right pass in hand, we returned to security to find the line 50 people deep. A woman who had been in line behind us was still there, waving us forward.
"Don't worry," she said, letting us cut in front of her. "I explained your situation to everyone else. They understand."
We made our flight with a half-hour to spare.
And I've never forgotten how the fuse from that very stressful, emotionally charged trip was diffused because of an act of kindness.

[Lexington, Ky.] –While combines are coming out of the fields early this year, there is still no rest for the weary. Due to this year's ominous drought, many producers are now faced with the challenge of how to feed the 2012 corn and soybean crops to their livestock.
"This year's climate created all the right ingredients for a cocktail of mycotoxin challenges," said Dr. Max Hawkins, Alltech Mycotoxin Management Team. "Besides the industry-expected aflatoxin outbreak, we are finding that some other molds and mycotoxins may be big players in this year's crops from our 37+ Program analysis."
Alltech's 37+ Program uses a mass spectrometry technique, LC-MS2, that can investigate 38 different mycotoxins quantitatively and more than 50 others qualitatively in less than 15 minutes per sample analyzed, with limits of detection in the parts per trillion range.
According to Hawkins, the 37+ Program feed analysis results should be released soon. In the meantime, he has been giving his clients these five tips for dealing with poor-quality feedstuffs:
1. Dry corn to 15 percent moisture or less within 24-48 hours of harvest. Reducing the moisture will help to stabilize the mold level and prevent further growth.
2. Screen grain to remove fines, broken kernels and foreign material as these are precursors to increased mold growth.
3. Analyze all ingredients that are grain or are sourced from grain for mycotoxins. This should be a comprehensive analysis that looks at numerous mycotoxins, not just one or two. There are more than 500 known mycotoxins, and the greatest percentage of samples contain from two to five mycotoxins.
4. Mycotoxin analysis should be conducted regularly throughout the storage process, as temperature and moisture changes will affect mold growth.
5. When purchasing ingredients, it may be difficult to locate mycotoxin-free feedstuffs. Many producers may find ingredients from certain areas that are consistently higher and will need to search for another source. Know the levels of mycotoxins that are practical and can be fed and the guideline limit that should not be fed to livestock.
For more information about the 37+ Program or any concerns relating to mycotoxins, please call the Alltech Mycotoxin Hotline at 866-322-3484.

Related story: Former SBIA developer Scot Spencer charged with $1.75 million fraud
Bios: Scot Spencer | Felice Luciano
Photo Galleries: Scot Spencer Returns To California To Face Charges | D.A. files charges against Scot Spencer
View: Criminal complaint | Statement from 5th District Supervisor Josie Gonzales | 2010-11 Grand Jury report
Timeline: SBIA and Scot Spencer
Embattled former San Bernardino airport developer Scot Spencer arrived at John Wayne Airport in Orange County this afternoon after being extradited from Florida to face conspiracy charges in Superior Court relating to San Bernardino International Airport.
Spencer was flanked by law enforcement officers and had his hands clasped together, with a black cloth laying over his wrists, as he was escorted through the airport. He is charged with five felonies for allegedly attempting to defraud the San Bernardino International Airport Authority of $1.75 million.
Spencer, who was arrested in Florida on Sunday, arrived at John Wayne Airport this afternoon. He repeatedly declined to comment in the case while being led through the airport's terminal.
The San Bernardino County District Attorney has charged Spencer with two counts of conspiracy, two counts of perjury and one count of preparing false documentary evidence. Prosecutors have also charged Spencer's alleged accomplice, Felice G. Luciano, with two counts of conspiracy.
Spencer and Luciano are accused of drafting a fraudulent claim against airport officials. The $1.75 million claim accused the Airport Authority of spoiling Spencer's chance to lease an aircraft to the Democratic National Committee in 2008.
An investigators' affidavit reports no such lease agreement ever existed. Airport officials, however, settled the claim for $1.02 million after receiving a letter from Spencer's lawyer that purported to confirm the lease.
Airport officials have said they will seek to recover the value of the settlement.
District Attorney's spokesman Christopher Lee did not have immediate information as to when Spencer will be arraigned. It was also not immediately known whether Luciano, reported on Monday to be a fugitive, was still at large.
Staff writers Andrew Edwards and Joe Nelson contributed to this report.

This being so, I myself always strive to have a conscience without offense toward God and men. Acts 24:16
This painting was inspired by the moving devotions penned and published by Oswald Chambers in his powerful devotional book, My Utmost for His Highest.
The Habit Of A Good Conscience. Acts 24:16. Painting With Light III Collection. Copyright 2010 by Mark Lawrence. All Rights Reserved.
Painting With LightThis painting has been rendered with an extraordinary Painting with Light method that paints the picture using the selected Bible verse text as the paintbrush. You are seeing the verse above painted imperceptibly millions of times repeatedly across the canvas.
Lawrences Painting With Light technique infuses select scripture verses from the Holy Bible directly into each work. The verses almost appear as a light rain of Gods Word falling across each sacred painting. Divine Truth is sent forth to an audience who cannot walk away untouched from an encounter with the Word of the Living God.
The final result is a picture that perhaps God first used to catch the eye, and then used to touch and speak to the spiritual heart.
When God sends a message to us through scripture it is never by accident. In Isaiah 55:11, God says that wherever He sends His word it never returns empty, but always achieves the special purpose for which it was sent.
Prayerfully consider the verse that inspired this painting and know that the Mighty God of all the heavens has reached out to touch you at this moment.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a disease in which the heart muscle (myocardium) becomes abnormally thick (hypertrophied). The thickened heart muscle can make it harder for the heart to pump blood.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy often goes undiagnosed because many people with the disease have few, if any, symptoms and can lead normal lives with no significant problems. However, in a small number of people with HCM, the thickened heart muscle can cause shortness of breath, chest pain or problems in the heart's electrical system, resulting in life-threatening abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias).

American Clint Dempsey had a dominant Saturday in English Premier League play. He scored two goals and assisted on another as Tottenham beat Coventry City 3-0.
Dempsey scored from Gareth Bale's flick-on after 12 minutes, and his deflected shot was then pounced on by the Wales winger for the second.
He picked up an assist in the 33rd when Bale scored on his deflected shot. And then just four minutes later, a cross from Bale was headed home by Dempsey for the American's second goal.
From there, U.S. goalkeeper Brad Friedel turned away all four shots on goal, his first shutout for Spurs since last May.

Rags To Riches: Suede And Scallops For A Taco
Rags to Riches, our new project, was in crazy need of paint. Since we were in a time crunch and on a crappy budget, we called somebody we knew who could get this done in a rush. We called Nostalgic Restyling out of Hemet, California, which is located behind Bio Kustumz. Josh, the owner and mad painter down there, told us he could throw down on the truck, do bodywork, and paint it in seven days. He didn't only deliver on time, but we got a much nicer paintjob than we had expected or for so fast.

Remaining with Phils, Byrd's blast lifts Hernandez
Right fielder snaps tie in sixth; righty allows unearned run over eight
WASHINGTON -- Leading up to Thursday afternoon's non-waiver Trade Deadline, Phillies slugger Marlon Byrd was one of the most sought-after offensive assets on the market. The outfielder was almost surely on his way out, rumored to end up in San Francisco, Seattle, New York, Pittsburgh -- anywhere except Philadelphia.
But the Deadline came and went without a deal, meaning Byrd would remain a Phillie for the foreseeable future. And a day later, he displayed to his reported suitors what could have been.
In the sixth inning against the Nationals on Friday night, Byrd deposited a Doug Fister sinker over the out-of-town scoreboard and into the right-field seats for his 21st home run. The solo shot proved to be the decisive run in a 2-1 Phillies victory at Nationals Park.
"[Philadelphia general manager] Ruben [Amaro] will make sure he lets some GMs know every time I have a good game: 'You know, you could have had that.' I'm sure my agent said the same thing," Byrd said. "But it's just one of those thing where, right now, I'm trying to win games for this team."
Roberto Hernandez provided eight strong innings to earn the victory. The lone run of the right-hander's outing was unearned. Meanwhile, he surrendered just five hits while striking out three.
Hernandez required the help of his fielders in the best performance of his 2014 campaign, though.
The Nationals lined out seven times, including in the third when newly acquired second baseman Asdrubal Cabrera smoked a hanging changeup right at Ryan Howard with runners on first and third. Howard secured the catch and stepped on first to double up Bryce Harper, diminishing one of Washington's best chances.
The Nationals made solid contact throughout the order and in virtually every inning. In the eighth, Denard Span drilled a first-pitch sinker right back at Hernandez, but the right-hander reacted and made the catch after the ball deflected off his pitching hand.
In the ensuing at-bat, Anthony Rendon sent a changeup soaring through the night sky to left field. Grady Sizemore was there at the warning track to end the inning, though.
"There were some hard-hit balls, some good plays behind [Hernandez], good positioning," manager Ryne Sandberg said. "But he was aggressive in the strike zone and stayed ahead of the hitters."
The Phillies opened scoring in the second. Sizemore doubled with two outs on a long drive to left field that Harper couldn't haul in. After a Carlos Ruiz walk, Cody Asche connected on an RBI single to put the Phillies ahead.
Sizemore went 2-for-3 and is batting .343 since joining the Phillies on July 11.
"It's huge. He's a different spark," Byrd said. "People forget about Grady, the name that he was. He's not the same Grady as in the past, after surgeries, injuries and all of that. But he's finally I think finding himself and understanding what it takes to get on the field and be comfortable and get reps. He's starting to show flashes of Grady in the past, which this team needed."
The Nationals tied the game in the second. Adam LaRoche led off by skying a popup to the left side, but with the shift on, Asche couldn't get to the ball before it fell to the grass. The third baseman quickly fielded and fired a wild throw to first that got past Howard, deflected off the wall and trickled into right field.
LaRoche went all the way to third on the two-base throwing error by Asche. And in the ensuing at-bat, Desmond drove a single up the middle to tie the game.
The Phillies nearly took the lead in the fifth when Ben Revere singled to right field with Asche on second base. However, Jayson Werth -- who made a spectacular grab at the wall on a long fly ball from Chase Utley in the third -- fielded and gunned Asche out at the plate thanks to a swift sweeping tag from Wilson Ramos.
Philadelphia broke the tie against Nationals starter Doug Fister in the sixth on Byrd's homer.
"I was trying to go off the plate," said Fister, who gave up two earned runs on six hits over seven innings in his third loss. "I left it over the plate a little bit. That's what he does. He hits fastballs."
Closer Jonathan Papelbon -- another Phillie who had potential to be traded before the Deadline -- earned his 26th save. It wasn't without some drama, though, as the Nationals put two runners on base with one out in the ninth. Papelbon answered by fanning Harper and Cabrera to clinch the victory.
But the win wouldn't have been possible without the big bat of Byrd -- a man good as gone only days ago.
"I want to win games and make up lineups to win games," Sandberg said. "So to have a guy like him here … it's good."

Photo Gallery: Jennifer Worts Interiors
Our favourite spaces by the Toronto designer.
Graphic touches and bold pops of colour give this space a fashion-forward feel.
Worts designed this room with her clients' sense of playfulness in mind. A graphic mirror, tonal metallic wallpaper, a luxe silver-velvet sofa, and bold shots of turquoise and pink are fun, dynamic touches. "It's a little rock and roll — every piece is interesting," explains Worts.

A mix of prints creates a boho bedroom.
A lushly canopied daybed and romantic chandelier creates a fairytale vibe in this girl's room, designed by Jennifer Worts. The starburst mirror and mix of pattern creates a worldly look for a growing girl.
By adding a floorlamp, side table, overstuffed pillows and throws, designer Jennifer Worts makes this enclosed porch mimic the comforts of a living room.

An ink sketch, rich fabrics and colourful accents make this small space dynamic.
Near the living room entrance, Worts wanted to dress up the walls without imposing too much on the room. Custom acrylic consoles keep the space airy, while graphic black and white art and a brass stool add rich visual interest.
A classic, high-contrast space.
Dark upper cabinet door frames in a classic white space gives this kitchen a sleek tuxedo-style look, says Worts. A large island with ample seating is family-friendly and perfect for entertaining.
Custom details put a modern twist on classic style.
Floor-to-ceiling windows flood this warm breakfast nook with light. Curved banquette seating, a graphic sign and modern clock give the space edge.
A stylish yet livable space.
This living room marries modern and traditional. Clean lines, an artful custom console table and a neutral palette create a sophisticated yet relaxed feel. "The kids are all over that sectional!" says Worts.
Colourful, graphic details add punch to a grey and white living room.
A statement coffee table by Martha Sturdy and Spine chairs exude refined elegance. The graphic area rug adds punch to the otherwise neutral space and plays off the jewel tones of a watercolour triptych on the wall.

Muted, warm colours give this bedroom a serene feel.
Worts created this principal bedroom as a retreat for two busy working parents with young children. A calming grey, mauve and cream palette and a fresh mix of modern and traditional elements make this room a soft, welcoming haven. A murano glass chandelier and mirrored brass tray strike a glam note.

Whimsical details add character to an all-white room.
A clean, monochromatic space provides a heavenly escape. Glittering mosaic floors, a quirky chandelier and a nautical-style window add whimsy. A sculptural freestanding tub and chrome faucet give the space modern appeal.
A red and cream colour palette creates stunning contrast.
Custom red chairs are a dramatic moment in the dining room of this home. A striking juxtaposition to cream walls, they play off the warm terracotta colour in the artwork and create a lively space for entertaining.
Blue and white seaside hues decorate a streamlined space.
Blue glass mosaic on either side of two inlaid mirrors adds richness and intricacy to a clean, modern space. A chunky countertop, flat door fronts and minimalist hardware echo the simple, pared-back design of the space, says Worts.

No longer considered a thing of stuffy formality, the bow tie has come into its own as an accessory that works in all occasions. Championed by British TV actor Mr Matt Smith in his role as the alien-battling Doctor Who, it's an easy way to sharpen up a jacket and shirt. Put aside concerns it will droop south, loll to one side or end up twisted like a Danish pastry; although an accessory synonymous with the most august of thinkers - Mr Winston Churchill, Mr Karl Marx and Mr Sigmund Freud, to name a few - the art of tying a bow tie is surprisingly straightforward. A few patient steps and you can bid farewell to frustrated fiddling in front of the mirror.
It's not brain surgery, but tying a bow requires a degree of dexterity. This isn't the same as slinging on a scarf; set aside a few minutes for it and take your time
After you've got your bow tie in place, there's a temptation to tie it too tight to ensure it stays put. Bunched up collars and a choked throat will be the result. If it's tied correctly, there should be no danger of it unravelling

I tend to go for the ultra modern style. I have as much white furniture in my house as possible. That table with Tiffany on it is where I sit and do much of my blogging to you. One thing that most definetly should not be bothering me is the color of my 3.5mm Eurorack cables. However it has been driving me crazy. Right now I have yellow, red, black and blue spaghetti blocking the view of my pretty modules. Luckily I came across a thread on the Muffwiggler forums titled All Dressed in White. There sat the pretty photo above from urbanscallywag and his kind words sharing where he got his white cables. They are available at Erthenvar in various sizes.

The hopes of Witham Town to get a first home fixture since December 7 have been dashed by a waterlogged pitch at the Village Glass Stadium.
Tonight's scheduled Ryman League division one north fixture against AFC Sudbury was postponed because of a soggy playing surface following a lunchtime pitch inspection.
It means Witham's next game will now be their home game against Cheshunt on Saturday (kick-off 3pm).

Schools would be required to always have a so-called protection officer on duty during school hours. People who fill the school protection officer positions could be police officers or other non-educators but also could be teachers or principals. Regardless, the protection officers would have to meet training standards set by a new statewide school safety board, the sponsor of the provision, Rep. Jim Lucas, R-Seymour, said.
"I've been approached by several teachers that would love the ability to have their natural right to self-defense recognized and would gladly do this without being paid," Lucas said.
The House Education Committee voted 9-3 to approve the bill, advancing it to the Republican-dominated House for consideration. The Senate would also have to approve the measure.
A National Rifle Association-sponsored study released Tuesday recommended schools across the nation each train and arm at least one staff member. South Dakota's governor last month signed into law Friday a measure allowing the state's school districts to arm teachers and other personnel with guns, but no states require armed employees in schools, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.
Indiana law currently prohibits anyone other than police officers and authorized school employees from possessing firearms on school property. Lucas said he know of no Indiana districts that now allow teachers to have guns at school.
Lucas added the proposal to a Senate-approved bill that that aimed to start a state grant program to help school districts hire and train police officers to work with students and buy safety equipment.
Rep. Vernon Smith, D-Gary, said he had concerns about requiring guns in schools and questions about how many trained employees would be needed in case the designated person was away.
"I don't think that the step is needed," Smith said. "This was hurriedly done, and it has not been thoroughly thrashed to the degree I think it ought to be."
Representatives of school, teachers and police organizations testified before the committee on Tuesday. But most offered little comment on Lucas' proposal, which was described for the first time during the meeting.
However, Todd Bess, executive director of the Indiana Association of School Principals, said schools have worked for years to establish safe environments and that he believed that can be done without having firearms in every building.
Frank Bush, executive director of the Indiana School Boards Association, said he worried that schools would need to hire additional employees where current staffers wouldn't want the additional responsibility.
"I don't see anything wrong with the notion of having someone in the school that can provide that kind of protection," Bush said.

HOUSTON - Houstonians should expect a Wednesday washout. Rain and storms will stick around all day.

"It is going to be a washout of a day. We've had consistent light rain in Houston all morning long. We've got a lot more on the way," KPRC meteorologist Anthony Yanez said.
The heavier rain and storms are coming from the southwest.
"You've got this area of low pressure that will be moving to the northeast. It's going to grab all this moisture and slowly glide into southeast Texas. The rain is going to be scattered throughout the area. We are not going to get much of a break at lunchtime," Yanez said.
The afternoon ride home from work will also be messy. Most areas will receive about an inch of rain, Yanez said.
"It's not out of the question to see 2 to 3 inches in a couple of isolated spots so it's a good soaking rain, definitely what we need for our drought. The rain will get out of here at the latest at 3 o'clock Thursday morning," Yanez said.
Thursday will be dry and warm with highs in the upper 70s.
The rain will return on Sunday.

Editor's note: Every NFL team is preparing to attack its offseason to-do list, with free agency set to open March 12 and the draft April 25-27. This is the 16th of 32 reports in 32 days by Sporting News NFL correspondents, who will analyze the offseason game plan for each team. Saturday: Atlanta Falcons. Sunday: Carolina Panthers.
Talent overview
General manager Kevin Colbert has already framed his offseason plan: The Steelers are not going to stand pat after an 8-8 season in which they lost three of their final four games to miss the playoffs.
With more veterans to depart because of serious salary-cap issues and 17 unrestricted free agents, it is the most important offseason of Mike Tomlin's tenure and one of the biggest since 2000.
The Steelers need to find at least two skill players on offense (a wide receiver and a running back) and an edge rusher who can pressure the quarterback—something team president Art Rooney II suggested would help the team create more takeaways.
The Steelers have always retooled and replenished their roster better than any team in the league. They are not about to panic, but there is a sense of urgency after being passed by the Ravens and Bengals in the division.
Key departures
The team is expected to lose as many as four starters on offense, including unrestricted free agents Mike Wallace and Rashard Mendenhall. The Steelers could not come to contract terms with Wallace before the season, and nothing has changed. Mendenhall got into Mike Tomlin's doghouse late in the season when he failed to appear for a game in which he was inactive.
Left tackle Max Starks played every snap and had one of his best seasons, but he is not expected to be re-signed because the team has three young tackles. Guard Willie Colon will probably be released after having three consecutive seasons end early because of injuries.
Needs and targets
1. Wide receiver. There is no question the Steelers need at least one wide receiver, and probably two, in the draft to replenish the position and give Ben Roethlisberger additional weapons. There will be a need for a rookie receiver to play immediately with the expected departure of Wallace.
There is still a question whether Antonio Brown is a No. 1 receiver, but that is the role he will assume without Wallace. Emmanuel Sanders will get pushed up to No. 2 for now, but he is nothing more than a good third receiver.
The Steelers will look for a tall receiver in the draft, someone like Cal's Keenan Allen or Tennessee's Cordarrelle Patterson, to give Roethlisberger a bigger target. But he needs more targets—period— because the team carried only four wideouts on the active roster last season.
2. Outside linebacker. After postseason declarations from Colbert and Rooney about the lack of pressure, the need for a pass-rushing outside linebacker would appear to be tantamount. And that need is heightened because of the situation surrounding James Harrison, who will turn 35 in May and is scheduled to make $6.57 million this season.
Harrison is coming off a season in which he had just six sacks in 13 games. The Steelers would like him back for one more season, but only if he takes a considerable pay cut. He could be released if he does not. Harrison and LaMarr Woodley, who has been bothered by injuries, combined for 10 sacks last season after combining for 89.5 the previous four seasons. Georgia's Jarvis Jones is the type of edge rusher who does not need a scheme to get free.
3. Running back. The team has one running back under contract for 2013, Baron Batch, and he has a broken forearm. Their top back, Mendenhall, probably won't be re-signed after his falling out with Tomlin.
Jonathan Dwyer and Isaac Redman are restricted free agents, but they are not considered feature backs. Plus, if the Steelers use more zone-blocking schemes this season, as indicated, they do not fit that style of attack.
The Steelers' priority must be to re-sign Mendenhall or bring in another feature back, most likely through the draft in the middle rounds. They can't go into next season without one. Dwyer and Redman are nice complementary backs who are inside power runners. Re-signing Mendenhall would solve the problem, but the odds of that happening aren't good.
4. Safety. This is a position that needs some youth behind Troy Polamalu and Ryan Clark, who will be 34 in October. The only solid backup is veteran Will Allen, and the team needs to find an eventual replacement for Clark, who could be in his last season with the team.
Same with Polamalu, who has been bothered by extensive injuries the past two seasons and has not played at the level of his 2010 season, when he was Defensive Player of the Year.
5. Inside linebacker. The team still does not have a replacement for James Farrior, who was released after the 2011 season. That's why they will probably bring back Larry Foote, 33—an unrestricted free agent—for one more season.
The team tried to address the position last season when it took Sean Spence in the third round, but he suffered a severe knee injury in preseason and the team is not sure when we will be able to return. Lawrence Timmons is coming off his best season, but he needs a inside partner who can make plays against the run.
Dulac's take
The Steelers have never really been active players in free agency, and this year will not be any different, especially with tight salary-cap issues. Even when they have signed outside free agents, it's been to solidify depth, not bring in starters.
That said, they could look for a backup veteran guard in free agency because of the expected departures of Starks, Colon and possibly even Ramon Foster, another unrestricted free agent. If that all plays out, the line wouldn't have a player older than 26.
The Steelers have specific positions that must be addressed in the draft, especially finding replacements for Wallace and Mendenhall. The team can't afford to use their first-round pick on a player who will be groomed to play in another year or two.
That's a luxury the Steelers could afford after one of their Super Bowl seasons, but not now. With 17 unrestricted free agents, they need rookies to come in and play immediately—especially one who will be the 17th overall pick in the draft.

Hey fellow food blogger (and Utah resident) :)
Thanks for dropping a line—it's good to know there's someone out there who's writing about food, too. I know of only a few wine bloggers, but that's it.
Your posts look fabulous. And it's terrific to hear that everyone enjoyed Thai Siam (and thank goodness they do Thai with less sugar, otherwise, I would never enjoy it). The lady who started Thai Siam is opening up a new place on South Temple called Sawadee...soon I believe. And Thai Garden in Murray is delicious too. Perhaps we can meet up for "Utah Food Blogger Forum" over a Thai feast? :)
Many happy thoughts for your Dad on his 80th!
Yowza--that looks good! I must get a camera with a food setting like yours!ReplyDelete
Chicken and basil is one of my favorite thai dishes, along with Pad Thai. Happy birthday to your Dad, may he live many many more healthy and happy years :) It's always fun getting together with family like that, isn't it? And also, beautiful pix, how come mine never look that good online :(ReplyDelete
Ten siblings!? Whew.
(My dad reached age 82 in August. I told you I was older than you! Or, at least, my dad is older than yours.)
Thanks for the fab dinner, the amazingly drool worthy book and the cases. I meant to do this sooner but I've been in a coma ever since the whirlwind trip and party. Much, much loveReplyDelete
I'm so happy you're taking the time to comment on Kalyn's Kitchen! I love hearing from people who stop by, especially if you're sharing feedback or asking questions about a recipe I've posted here.

Our wide selection of outdoor light fixtures addresses the common needs of these spaces. Not simply a stylish addition to your outdoor décor, exterior lighting also creates a safer location—brightening your home or business's exterior doorways and sidewalks. These practical fixtures are given a sense of style by channeling historic designs, including brass lantern lighting similar to early electric gas lanterns and barn-style lanterns with RLM shades. This collection offers a variety of mounting types. Outdoor wall lighting is perfect for entryways and porches. A chain hung porch light makes a charming addition to these often overlooked spaces as well. Our exterior lighting fixtures are UL listed for wet locations, assuring these quality lights are capable of handling the challenges they face in these settings.
To preserve dark skies and provide direct down lighting, we recommend our handcrafted barn lights. Their wide brims prevent upward light spill, projecting light where it's needed. However, if you desire the ambiance of uplighting, we manufacture shades with vented necks. Our post mount lighting is locally crafted to provide a durable and powerful source of illumination for commercial and residential locations. Consider these options as both LED barn lighting and LED post mounts.

Eovaldi to make rehab start Saturday for Jupiter
CHICAGO -- Miami starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi will throw a 60-70 pitch rehab start with Class A Jupiter on Saturday. It will be his first start since he was placed on the 60-day disabled list with right shoulder inflammation on March 24.
Eovaldi joins three other Marlins who are on rehab assignments with the Hammerheads. Joe Mahoney didn't start on Thursday because of a sore hamstring, and he will take the next couple days off before resuming activity. Logan Morrison and Casey Kotchman are still on track with their rehab schedules.
Marlins manager Mike Redmond joked that Jupiter has a formidable squad at the moment.
"They're pretty good," Redmond said. "They're loaded over there."

Snoop Dogg's Tamer Husni's Main Man: Song 'Everyman'
Egyptian artist Tamer Husni released the 'promo' snippet of his new song "Si Assayyed" (Everyman)- featuring Snoop Dogg, in a duet between him and the international rap-artist Snoop Dogg. This is one of many English-Arabic songs presented on his new album, "A Small World".
The song title which breaks down into the familiar Naguib Mahfouz-originated Arabic expression Si El Said (familiar form for 'every-Egyptian-man') was written and composed by Tamer Husni himself, with mixing by Karim Abdul Wahab.
As for the English segment of the song, Tamer wrote and composed the general English lyrics featured with the help of the international writer and composer "Roy", who worked with legends like Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, R Kelly and many other international artists.
Snoop Dogg wrote and composed his part of collaboration with Tamer Husni number. Tamer Husni's pretty fly for an Egyptian guy!
"Si Assayyed" video clip was scheduled to be released in the last few days but Tamer decided to postpone releasing it till the political situation in Egypt became stable.

LeBron James hurdled John Lucas for a dunk last season, and we saw the replay every 10 minutes. It's a product of this highlight-reel era we live in.
It's the very mentality that makes you wonder how this Bill Russell layup, a free-throw line take-off from his college days at San Francisco, remained unearthed for so long (via EyeonBasketball).
This is a move that should be included among the great moments in college basketball, or at least showed as one of Russell's most impressive individual feats, placed aside from the NCAA title and long list of championships and MVPs he would go on to win as a pro with the Boston Celtics.
Basketball legend says the game was largely played below the rim before Russell and Wilt Chamberlain came along. Here's an example to show that first glimpse of rare athleticism and leaping ability could match that of today's stars.
And we threw in this James dunk for good measure.
