They have two sizes of gluten free crust, personal or 12". Also the people are friendly.
The toppings were very limited and the taste wasn't any better than a GF frozen pizza. Also, they didn't have any gf salad dressings, disappointing to not be able to have a salad with the low taste pizza. The service was also lacking from the second we walked in the door. Was very disappointed.
790 Gravenstein Hwy N, Sebastopol, CA 95472
I ordered gluten free pizza twice. The crust is not very good at all, and I didn't feel well afterward both times. I won't be a customer there again.
18636 Sonoma Hwy, Sonoma, CA 95476
Really good about doing their part with cross contamination. They have gluten free pizza and pasta. I've never been sick from eating there. I would totally recommend!
101 Golf Course Dr, Rohnert Park, CA 94928
Have been told they can't guarantee GF, as their is "flour flying all over the kitchen."
we waited about an hour to get our order. no apologies or explanations were given.
535 Summerfield Rd, Santa Rosa, CA 95405
Ordered chicken piccata, told her I couldn't have gluten... She said she would take care of it.... When it showed up at my house it was gluten free pasta... No sauce, and what appeared to be boiled chicken..so yes. It was gluten free. But I payed 14$ for boiled chicken... And plain pasta.
1901 Hwy 273, Anderson, CA 96007
Great place. Enjoy the salad and sometimes the GF pizza. No problems afterwards.
8 W Spain St, Sonoma, CA 95476
Great GF pizza
1901 Hwy 273, Anderson, CA 96007
Eat here often. Still go. Only one time got sick eating pizza. Suspect cross contamination. Nobody's perfect.
359 E Washington St, Petaluma, CA 94952
Delicious gf pizza - all prepared separate to avoid cross contamination.
1177 Shasta St, Redding, CA 96001
I have celiacs and have eaten at both the Anderson and Redding locations without any problems. I made sure to explain that I have a severe food allergy and they were very helpful and accomodated my needs. Will go back again!
1901 Hwy 273, Anderson, CA 96007
We came across this on a long road trip and loved the GF pizza so much that we planned our return home around stopping here again!!
505 Davis St, Vacaville, CA 95688
The worst gluten free pizza ever, had I opened the box before I left I would not have paid for it.
615 4th St, Santa Rosa, CA 95404
There is a disclaimer on the menu next to the GF pizza saying that they do not recommend it to celiacs because they are a gluten kitchen. I understand with cross contamination n all. Nice of them to put it though.
535 Summerfield Rd, Santa Rosa, CA 95405
The GF pizza was really good! A little pricey but overall a good choice for gluten free.
615 4th St, Santa Rosa, CA 95404
GF pizza was good, with flavorful sauce and a decent crust. We ate in the restaurant and had good service. They offer a small personal size pizza and a larger 10 inch one. The gluten eaters were less happy with their meals.
Quite good GF options. Pizza is good for restaurant GF, and the GF pasta is really good. I had the pasta with pepper & sausage sauce--yummy.
9010 Brooks Rd S, Windsor, CA 95492
I don't know what the other people are saying but I stopped in and got a gluten free pizza to go. The staff was so friendly and knew exactly what toppings were gluten free. They were super cautious about cross contamination. But it tasted super good! It was a new kind of crust, I'm used to the same crust they use at every restaurant and this was really good. I have celiac and I'm super sensitive and this place didn't get me sick while I was out at wineries all day. I definitely recommend this place. I can't get over how friendly the staff was too.
1143 S Cloverdale Blvd, Cloverdale, CA 95425
Pizza was deffinately not perfect, but It's worth it to try. The pasta, though, is the delicious Gluten Free Barilla, which I find amazing in flavor! But upon asking, they did not seem to be very careful about cross-contamination, which is a down fall overall. But if you are not super sensative, and need something quick, Mary's is a great choice. :)
359 E Washington St, Petaluma, CA 94952
Have eaten here a few times, they are very knowledgeable and careful. Will dine here again without fear.
9010 Brooks Rd S, Windsor, CA 95492
GF crust is not very good. Had a reaction after eating GF pizza here. Waitress was not very knowledgable at all. Did not do a good job avoiding cross-contamination. Would not suggest eating GF pizza here if you have to avoid gluten for health reasons. Have never tried any of the other GF options because I was too scared to go back and eat here.
535 Summerfield Rd, Santa Rosa, CA 95405
Mary's is a great place with great service! Their house salads are a wonderful gluten free option and the gluten free pastas and pizzas are surprisingly satisfying! Make sure they know if you have a gluten sensitivity and they will make sure you're meal is safe for you to eat
3085 Jefferson St, Napa, CA 94558
The gf pizza is terrible!
615 4th St, Santa Rosa, CA 95404
the gluten free pizza not great.asked question if it was a preference or if you had the allergy
9010 Brooks Rd S, Windsor, CA 95492
Not the best... The GF pizza crust is very thin, and tastes very bland. I haven't yet tried the GF pasta, but I think it should be good! :D
1143 S Cloverdale Blvd, Cloverdale, CA 95425
The worst gluten free pizza I've ever had. I emailed the company, since they are local, and asked if anyone had tried it, prior to putting it on the menu. I was never given the curtesy of a response.
1177 Shasta St, Redding, CA 96001
I've had the gluten free pizza without and reactions. Strongly recommend.
121 San Marin Dr, Novato, CA 94945
If you're not eating gluten free, Mary's is awesome. I was impressed that they have a gluten free penne pasta, and the Caprese salad was incredible! Unfortunately, Domino's glute free pizza is miles ahead. This crust is flaccid and gummy which makes the pizza a complete disappointment. If your desperate for a pizza order the Caprese salad then tolerate the pizza and you should be fairly satisfied.
615 4th St, Santa Rosa, CA 95404
The gluten-free pizza crust has a slightly odd after-taste but overall is decent. I have had deliveries arrive indelibly soggy, though, so the quality of this location is kind of hit-or-miss.
505 Davis St, Vacaville, CA 95688
The pizza was not good. The crust was soggy and flavorless. We got ham and pineapple and it was like sliced lunch meat. The sauce was obviously the same sauce they use for spaghetti, thin and runny. We also got a side salad which was marginal.
They offer gluten free pizza and pasta. Very good about cross contamination. Pizzas are prepared in the cooler and cooked on a foil lined pan. I think they use Still Riding pizza crusts. The marinara sauce is wonderful and if you ask they can do a gf meat sauce, my favorite.
1500 Oliver Rd, Fairfield, CA 94534
Great GF pizza and pasta, sauces, salads. Friendly knowledgable staff.
1901 Hwy 273, Anderson, CA 96007
I've eaten the pizza from the Anderson Mary's several times. They have thin, gluten free crust and a list of gluten free toppings. I've never gotten sick from their GF pizza. It was a thrill to finally eat a pizza locally!! The staff seems very knowledgeable about cross contamination issues.
121 San Marin Dr, Novato, CA 94945
I've eaten pizza and salads here three times now and gotten pretty sick all 3 times times...more than just a little CC. I don't think I'll be back any time soon.
9010 Brooks Rd S, Windsor, CA 95492
Pizzas are small. Not enough cheese. But they are extremely cautious of cross-contamination.
8 W Spain St, Sonoma, CA 95476
agree the frozen pizza crusts are nasty.....though staff is awesome with toppings as far as contamination
359 E Washington St, Petaluma, CA 94952
Got tip from waitress... Ask gf pizza crust to be baked first, then add toppings, then rebake.
1500 Oliver Rd, Fairfield, CA 94534
They have really good gluten free pizza, which is VERY hard to find. Great place to eat!!
1177 Shasta St, Redding, CA 96001
Great pizza but expensive
790 Gravenstein Hwy N, Sebastopol, CA 95472
I always loved Mary's and, when I had to go gf, I was sad to lose it. When they got gf crust I was excited. Unfortunately, it is a dry, frozen, yucky crust with limited toppings. I use Udi crusts at home and they are far superior for pre fab crusts. After experiencing Picazzo Pizzas in Arizona and Rosso in Santa Rosa, CA, I know it can be done right. Mary's salads are still great, but menu choices are limited for gf. :-(
8 W Spain St, Sonoma, CA 95476
Staff was great but gf pizza crust was horrible. I hope they improve it because Mary's is a favorite for my family.
359 E Washington St, Petaluma, CA 94952
Staff was great and they had a designated area, designated toppings and utensils for GF pizza! It was a great experience!

Safeway: About Those Store Sales…
Shares of Safeway have jumped 81% during the past 12 months, on hopes that Safeway would break itself into bite-sized bits.
Well, the process might not be going as well as many investors hope, says Cantor Fitzgerald's Ajay Jain. He writes:
On top of $450 million of potential cash tax benefits from the exit in Chicago, we previously assumed $280 of potential sale proceeds from Dominick's which could be used for additional share repurchases. Our model already assumes $2.7 billion of cash available for share repurchases in 2014 (with an implied reduction in share count of 90 million). These share count assumptions may be optimistic based on the lack of meaningful sale proceeds at Dominick's. While we expect more market exits are entirely possible, based on what remains in Safeway's core U.S. operations, we don't think asset sales are likely to result in additional value creation relative to what is already discounted in [Safeway's] current share price.
Shares of Safeway have dropped 0.9% to $31.80 today at 3:15 p.m., while Kroger (KR) is up 0.7% to $39.27 and Whole Foods Market (WFM) is off 0.5% at $53.40.

Vallejo will set the stage Tuesday night for a Sonoma Boulevard corridor makeover.
The Vallejo City Council will hold a public hearing on the city's plan, developed from public input, that will provide a framework for future improvements to one of the city's major arteries. The design plan was developed with the help of a $300,000 California Department of Transportation planning grant.
Included in the plan is a 5.5-mile stretch of highway, between Curtola Parkway and Highway 37.
Suggested projects range from "quick win" ideas like adding bike lanes and utilizing empty properties along the street for temporary uses, to partnering with existing businesses to create new business incentives and updating city zoning laws to specify certain uses along the corridor.
Approval of the design plan will not in and of itself authorize any new projects on Sonoma Boulevard, nor provide funding for them. Each project realized from the plan will have to go through typical city approval processes and are reliant on funding availability.
For more information on the plan project, visit www.sonomaboulevarddesignplan.com.
In other meeting agenda items, the Council will consider:
* Approving a mutual aid agreement with the Vallejo Sanitation and Flood Control District to allow for federal reimbursement after future disaster relief partnering
* Transferring a home at 105 Los Gatos Avenue to the nonprofit Community Housing Development Corporation for rehabilitation and resale
* Including the mayor and City Council's salaries under "unrepresented employees" salary schedule group to meet state publishing code
* Revisiting a proposal to modify the budget for the city's HOME Program fund, after the City Council sent the request back for more information in November.

What: Vallejo City Council meeting
When: 7 p.m., Tuesday

Violence in Mexico appears to have leveled off or declined in the past year, according to a new report by the Trans-Border Institute at the University of San Diego.
"Things are looking a bit better in Mexico," said David Shirk, the institute's director and one of the report's authors. "Particularly in places like Tijuana and Ciudad Juarez, we can say violence has gone down."
The report's analysis suggests that Mexico could be turning a corner following a period of unprecedented violence as trafficking groups battled each other and government forces. It estimates that the total number of homicides in 2012 fell to "somewhere between 20,000 and 25,000" following a record high in 2011, when one Mexican government tally showed more than 27,000 killings
"Available evidence suggests that there has indeed been a significant slowdown in homicides and organized-crime-style killings over the last two years," the report states. "The main question remains whether violence is in decline or has reached a plateau."
The report's release on Tuesday comes at a key time for Mexico, about two months after President Enrique Peña Nieto began a six-year term and pledged to bring down the levels of violence in the country. Peña Nieto has promised to focus on crime prevention — a different strategy from his predecessor, Felipe Calderón, who concentrated on dismantling drug-trafficking organizations and arresting their top leaders.
Shirk said one of the report's goals is "to get some clarity on what is the true nature of the security situation in Mexico." The country's safety and security are "a vital issue for the United States," he said. "It's a country that Americans travel to more than any other country in the world."
At the same time, the study's authors said, "Mexico's security situation has arguably attracted a disproportionate amount of attention and concern in international media and policy circles compared to other countries in Latin America." Honduras has more than four times as many homicides per capita as Mexico, Guatemala twice as many and Colombia one-and-a-half times much, according to the report.
The authors said tracking homicide numbers in Mexico is a difficult task, a challenge often raised by academics and human-rights activists in Mexico. The institute's analysis for 2012 looked at data from the Mexican National Security System, as well as figures reported by two Mexican media organizations, Reforma and Milenio.
These sources' numbers typically do not coincide, and that makes it tough to draw definitive conclusions.
As a result, "we don't know if we could say if it was a significant decrease, but it was at least a leveling off or a modest decrease," Shirk said. "The concern that I have is just as these critical changes are occurring, the Mexican government has begun to reduce access to data and information that corroborates this. We want to have a measure of whether the Mexican government is succeeding in solving the public-security problem or not."
Mexican scholar Raúl Benítez Manaut, president of the Collective for the Analysis of Security With Democracy, said the Trans-Border Institute's report "is a good effort, but it doesn't give me reason for optimism." While violence in Mexico has decreased, he said, "it is not a significant amount."
The study found that the fewer homicides in northern Mexican states during the past two years — including Baja California, Sonora and Chihuahua — were "offset by increases in homicides elsewhere in the country, notably Colima, Guerrero and Nuevo Leon." In 2012, the researchers wrote, "the worst violence has remained concentrated in fewer than 10 percent of Mexico's 2,457 municipalities."
Mexican authorities have credited the drop in crime in areas such as Baja California to the combined efforts of military and law-enforcement agencies. But the report said the dynamics of drug-trafficking groups have played a key role.
"While important law-enforcement efforts no doubt explain some of this decline, the ability of the Sinaloa cartel to consolidate its power in the northern states of Baja California, Sinaloa, Sonora and Chihuahua appears to be the major factor," the authors wrote.

What You Need to Know
Tuesday, September 18
The Monday Takeaway
Not really, of course, but with three games now separating Chicago from Detroit, and only 16 left to play, the Tigers' outlook is beginning to look grim. The team that reeled in Prince Fielder this past offseason and saw its 2009 trade acquisitions, Austin Jackson and Max Scherzer, blossom into elite contributors, now faces an elimination number of 14 in the American League Central and 11 in the wild card.
Jackson, who was scratched from Sunday's Tigers lineup with an ankle injury, returned to the leadoff spot on Monday. Fielder, mired in a 3-for-29 slump with just one extra-base hit since Sept. 9, chipped in a double as part of a 2-for-4 afternoon. And Delmon Young drove in two runs to help Detroit to a 3-0 lead through three innings. It wasn't enough.
The White Sox rallied to tie the game in the bottom of the fourth, when Doug Fister hit Gordon Beckham with the bases loaded and two out, and then served up a two-run single to Dewayne Wise. Detroit pulled back ahead, 4-3, on an RBI single by Young in the top of the fifth. But that edge quickly turned into a 5-4 deficit, on an RBI fielder's choice by Dayan Viciedo that became a two-run debacle thanks to a throwing error by Omar Infante. That miscue proved fateful, as after an eventful third, fourth, and fifth, the score went unchanged the rest of the way.
Robin Ventura's relievers made sure of that by backing starter Jose Quintana, who was chased after allowing four runs on seven hits and two walks in just four innings, with five shutout frames. Rookie Nate Jones improved to 8-0 by tossing 2 2/3 innings, before giving way to Donnie Veal, Brett Myers, Matt Thornton, and Addison Reed, who each took care of business without allowing a single Tiger to reach base. Those five relievers needed only 51 pitches to record the final 15 outs, mainly because 38 (75 percent) of them went for strikes, including 10 swings-and-misses that produced five total strikeouts for the staff. Jim Leyland's crew matched those zeros—albeit less efficiently, using 79 pitches and 48 strikes—but the damage off Fister rendered their efforts moot.
Few had faith in this White Sox team back in late-March, when the Baseball Prospectus crew made its annual predictions. Most picked Chicago to place third or fourth in the Central, and 26 of the 27 projections had Detroit atop the standings, with the Royals earning the honor in the other. But Chris Sale has emerged as an ace, Jake Peavy's shoulder has held up, Paul Konerko has been as productive as ever, and A.J. Pierzynski has ridden the year-of-the-catcher wave to a comeback campaign, silencing the skeptics and giving the White Sox an opportunity to seize their first division crown since 2008.
This race is not over, as the Tigers—most notably Young—know firsthand. A lot can change during the final tenth of the season, and Detroit's schedule is a bit friendlier than Chicago's. While the White Sox head out for a six-game swing through Kansas City and Anaheim, and later host Tampa Bay, the Tigers will return to Comerica Park for a 10-game homestand, which begins with a three-game set versus the A's, the only contender left on their docket. The White Sox have three more games against the Royals and six more against the Indians, while the Tigers finish the campaign with a home-and-home sequence versus Minnesota and Kansas City, taking on the former six times and the latter seven.
Unfortunately, those Central division bottomfeeders have been a thorn in the Tigers' side all season. Detroit won 12 of its 18 head-to-head meetings with the White Sox, but it has sputtered to an 11-19 mark versus the West—including a 2-2 record and 5.56 team ERA against the Athletics—and a 22-19 ledger against the rest of its division rivals. The White Sox have gone 27-18 in their other Central battles and 20-9 against the West, a difference that accounts for much of the current gap in the standings.
Now, the Tigers face a tall task. If the White Sox go 8-8, they would have to go 11-5 just to force a playoff. That's the math Iott warned fans about before Monday's game.
Said Leyland, after the costly loss: "You've got to win games." Said Fielder, parroting his manager: "You've got to win." But as the late Detroit skipper Sparky Anderson once observed, "Players have two things to do: play and keep their mouths shut." With the playoffs fast approaching, the Tigers would be wise to heed his advice.
What to Watch for on Tuesday

And justice prevails. The Tigers deserve to lose, given the way that roster is put together. It is good to know that some semblance of balance is still something to strive for when putting a team together. The Tigers can't catch the ball, and they have paid a hefty price for rostering and playing guys like Delmon Young and Brennan Boesch.

The saga of the yet-to-be finalized agreement between Mike Napoli and the Boston Red Sox continues.
The Red Sox would like to shorten the deal to one year, according to ESPN's Jim Bowden.
Boston general manager Ben Cherington told The Boston Globe only that negotiations with the free-agent catcher/first baseman are continuing.
The team is also one of the clubs in contact with the Washington Nationals about first baseman-outfielder Mike Morse, sources told FoxSports.com.
The Sox and Napoli agreed to a three-year, $39 million contract in early December, but the deal was never officially announced. A problem with one of Napoli's hips was discovered during the physical, which raised concerns for the Red Sox, according to multiple reports.
Previous reports said the Red Sox wanted to add language to the contract that would protect the team against a significant hip injury.
Last season, Napoli, 31, hit .227 with 24 home runs and 56 RBIs. If a deal is completed, the Red Sox would use Napoli primarily at first base.
The Red Sox have been one of the more active teams this offseason, adding seven other veteran players via free agency or trade: catcher David Ross, outfielders Jonny Gomes and Shane Victorino, relievers Joel Hanrahan and Koji Uehara, starting pitcher Ryan Dempster and shortstop Stephen Drew.

1996 Toyota Corolla Problems
RepairPal has identified the most common problems with the 1996 Toyota Corolla based on complaints from actual vehicle owners. We'll tell you what the problem is and what it'll take to fix it.
At higher mileages, (125,000-150,000) the automatic transmission may not shift correctly. This can be caused by the throttle position sensor being out of adjustment or a shift solenoid needing to be replaced. Typically the transmission does not need to be completely overhauled.
On vehicles with a manual transmission, worn shift bushings can cause the transmission to pop out of gear, especially when coasting down in 1st or 2nd gear. Replacing all the shift linkage bushings is pretty straight forward and not expensive and will commonly correct this concern.
The EGR System tends to get restricted or blocked with carbon after 100,000- 125,000 miles which will cause an emissions test failure for NOX. If the EGR system is equipped with an EGR temperature sensor it will trigger a Check Engine Light for improper EGR flow. The repair is to clean out the EGR passages and the EGR Temperature sensor. Our technicians tell this repair is pretty straight forward and takes about 1-1.5 hours. It is also wise to verify the EGR system components i.e. the Transducer, EGR Valve and VSV Solenoid at this time.
The ignition coil inside the distributor may fail. Our technicians tell us this may result in a hesitation on acceleration, especially when the vehicle is warming up on cold, rainy days. The pickup coils inside the distributor can also fail and cause a no-start condition. There have also been some failures of the radio noise suppressors inside the distributors, which can short out. Our technicians recommend replacing the whole distributor with a complete, genuine Toyota distributor if any of its components fail.
If the engine will not crank over, the most common problem is the starter. These will tend to go out at about 100,00-125,000 miles. Sometimes it is only the starter solenoid, but often the complete starter (including solenoid) needs to be replaced.
A transmission fault code of P0770 or P0773 may occur at higher mileages which indicates that the 3-way lock-up solenoid has failed and will need replacement.
At 125,000-150,000 miles, the Brake Master Cylinder may need replacing. It is critical to adjust the brake pedal to Master Cylinder pushrod clearance or the brakes can drag and over heat.
Over the time the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system may become plugged with debris, the oxygen sensor may also be getting slow or 'lazy' around this time. When servicing or cleaning the EGR system, it is a good idea to replace the oxygen sensor because it works in tandem with the EGR system.
A loss of power on the freeway may due to an internally leaking fuel pulsation dampener. This commonly occurs on higher mileage vehicles.
A rough idle and even an emissions inspection failure for high HC and CO can be caused by improperly adjusted valves. Also, exhaust valves may become to tight which can lead to valve failures. Our technicians tell us that regular valve adjustment inspections are a must.
The Throttle Position Sensor can get out of adjustment due to wear in the throttle body or due to carbon build up. This will cause the idle timing to advance more than 30 degrees which will cause very high HC and NOx emissions. Conversely, the Throttle Position Sensors can wear out and not properly advance the timing which causes a lack of power and poor fuel economy.
At higher mileages, an anti-lock brake system wheel speed sensor may wear out and illuminate the ABS warning light. It is recommended to replace the sensor with a factory part and be sure to clean all rust and debris from the mounting area because the mounting distance is critical. Failure to do so may result in the new sensor setting false trouble codes.
Brake fluid can become dirty and may cause problems in the brake system; it should be flushed every 60,000 miles.
You may be able to prevent automatic transmission problems by servicing the transmission and inspecting the fluid every 30,000 miles. If the fluid is dark or burned, the transmission system should be completely flushed.

Sookie, I don't see how you could want DJones back after seeing that Dallas game. He was awful, and we got to see one of his classic moves where he goes overly physical for no good reason and then wonders what the call was about (when he literally grabbed and threw Tyler down). Green and Young have much better defensive footwork than Jones and are good at staying in front of people. Jones was living on rep and the chair pull. If DJones wasn't hitting 3s last year people would have been sick of him.
Augustine without a doubt has been a disaster, but it's not like Collison didn't struggle against Hill. DC is a case of grass is greener. Yes he's better now than DJ is, but Mahinmi is also better than Lou and at the end of the year they can let Augustine walk.
I mean the Pacers have one good win and it was against a team featuring Collison at point.
Let's see DC put up nice numbers at the point with Roy playing like he is plus Danny out. We know what Hill can do with Roy and Danny because we saw it last year. It's not like this is Hill's first chance.
And Collison still lets guys leave him on defense just about as badly as Augustine.
DC was okay, but he was just a smaller, less physical and defensive version of Hill. DC has never been a great court vision passer and still isn't. And Dallas isn't exactly kicking everyone's butt. Their schedule has been pretty soft so far, at least for the wins.

I grew up with Evan Turner, he was one of my best friends in elementary/junior high school.
He was frustrated in Philadelphia, but is a really hard worker who prides himself in being a good defender and has always been a winner. I feel bad we traded Danny, but Evan is going to play really hard and smart for us. He fits so well with our identity.

Snyder must catch on quickly to make Angels' roster
PHOENIX, Ariz. -- Chris Snyder's flight from Florida touched down a little before 7 p.m. PT on Monday. And at around 7 a.m. on Tuesday, the veteran catcher arrived at Tempe Diablo Stadium to find his name on the list of those traveling to Maryvale Baseball Park for his first game action.
If Snyder is going to make the Opening Day roster as the Angels' backup catcher, he'll have to be a quick study.
Snyder, 32, who signed a Minor League deal with the Angels shortly after being released by the Nationals, is in the American League for the first time and has less than two weeks to familiarize himself with an entirely new pitching staff.
"I tell you what, there's going to be a lot of hanging out in the bullpen when I'm not playing," said Snyder, who caught the last two innings against the Brewers on Tuesday and grounded out in his only plate appearance. "It's going to be just hanging out, talking with guys, getting to know everybody, and once you get on the field, then that's where you learn everything. I'm going to be watching in the dugout and paying attention and talking to everybody and trying to figure everybody out."
Snyder, brought in to give the Angels another backup option given Hank Conger's recent throwing issues, has a .225/.329/.385 slash line in his nine-year Major League career, but has also thrown out 29 percent of would-be base-stealers and is steady behind the plate.
Snyder is technically competing with Conger, John Hester and Luke Carlin for the backup job behind Chris Iannetta, but he can opt out of his Minor League deal if he isn't on the Opening Day roster.
And that's 13 days away.
"We're going to throw him in," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "We're going to try to get him acclimated here in the next couple days with most of our guys, have some meetings, make sure we're set so he understands the pitchers' stuff and everything and what every pitcher's trying to do. There's a lot that goes into it that he's going to have to make a quick study of."

A TOP police boss has denied allegations of a health and safety breach in connection to an unarmed odd-job man shot dead in Culcheth by one of his officers.
Sir Peter Fay, chief constable of Greater Manchester Police, is accused of failing to discharge a duty under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 over the shooting of Anthony Grainger in March 2012.
The former chief constable of Cheshire Police did not appear in the dock at London's Westminster Magistrates' Court, where the plea was made on his behalf by Anne Whyte QC, representing GMP.
Sir Peter has been charged as the ''corporation sole'' for the force, a legal status that means he is a representative of GMP but does not share criminal liability.
It is alleged that on or before March 3 2012, as an employer, he "failed to conduct his undertaking in such a way as to ensure as far as reasonably practicable" that the planning for "the police action leading to the intended arrest" of Mr Grainger did not expose him to a health or safety risk.
Prosecutor Karen Robinson argued that the appropriate venue for the trial to be heard was a Crown Court.
She noted that an unlimited fine could be imposed if there was a conviction and it was found that the actions led to a death.
The maximum fine for a summary conviction at a magistrates' court would be £20,000.
District Judge Howard Riddle sent the case to Southwark Crown Court for a preliminary hearing on February 20.
Father-of-two Mr Grainger, aged 36, from Bolton, was shot by a GMP marksman after his car was stopped as part of a planned operation in Culcheth.
He was unarmed and there were no weapons in the car.
The marksman responsible will face no action.

Roof and Deck Snow Removal -- Winter Preparedness Tips
Residents should watch for falling snow and ice from their roofs, but should not attempt to access their roofs to try to clear the snow due to the safety concerns of slipping off the roof and exposure to electrical wires. Residents should clear the areas around downspouts and roof drains so that melting water has a path to flow away from the house. Residents should also clear snow and ice away from exhaust vents that go through the exterior walls. Decks can be cleared of snow to reduce the stress to these structures, although they are designed to support the snow load.

Whether you love her or hate her, Rachael Ray, the Food Network's biggest star, is here to stay. Although 2008 was filled with many ups and downs, it was a huge year for Ray. Things got off to a rocky start in January, when a secondhand story claimed that Ray, a Dunkin' Donuts spokeswoman, refused to drink Dunkin's coffee, instead opting for Starbucks. A week later, Ray denied the claim as "absolutely ridiculous." In February, Ray happily hosted the wildly popular Burger Bash at the South Beach Wine and Food Festival, but March brought worries that her daytime television talk show would not be renewed. However, these rumors were quickly squashed when reports showed that her viewership was growing. The weirdest bombshell came in May when Michelle Malkin, a conservative commentator, accused Ray of supporting terrorists in a Dunkin' Donuts ad. The donut chain pulled the ad and released a statement clarifying that Rachael was simply wearing a stylish scarf and not a traditional headdress sometimes associated with terrorists.
Ray rose above the controversy to win a daytime Emmy for Outstanding Talk Show. In July she rolled out a line of pet food called Nutrish, and in early August Forbes named her the world's richest chef. The week before bringing the Burger Bash to New York City's first-ever Wine and Food festival, Ray revealed her plans to open a hamburger restaurant. Since then, Ray has laid low. She recently had throat surgery to get rid of her raspy voice and is currently taking some time off to recover.
What did you think about Ray's turbulent year? Will she continue to make headlines in 2009?

I have a simple nav menu in which I want to add icons to the icon should appear above the text in the center. However I cannot seem to figure out how to do this. Below is my code:

who we are

services

contact

ul.nav {
list-style: none; /* this removes the list marker */
border-top: 20px solid #FFF; /* this creates the top border for the links - all others are placed using a bottom border on the LI */
/*margin-bottom: 15px; this creates the space between the navigation on the content below */
ul.nav li {
float: left;
width: 23%;
/*border-bottom: 1px solid #666; this creates the button separation */
I have tried an after class but that doesn't seem to work either.
Hi skelleex,
this thread has two methods you can use.
I added the file i am working to my web server. I am still trying to add my menu to be inline with the logo and get all the icons to line up just above the text. Can anyone help the link is http://www.webapp-testing.com/rethink/.
still tryin to get some help with this
Did you try the methods in the thread @kohoutek linked to? They apply the images as background images in the CSS, not as  tags in the HTML as you have.
Actually I got lost in the code a bit am I suppose to add
#nav a:link, #nav a:visited {
background:url(sprite.png) no-repeat 0; /* need to declare bg image once for all nav links to follow */
to my css referening to my images (they are not sprites by the way). Also how will I move the images to the top of the menu
Are you not planning to use sprites? If you want to keep your current CSS and HTML structure and use images within your HTML document, then just add margin:auto; to your ul.nav li img to center the image.
really ok will give it a try later. What about getting the menu next to the image will that be an easy fix also
I am not using sprites as I have no experience with them at this time. Hopefully you can point me to a tutorial on how to create them and use them.
Without changing anything except the CSS, you can replace your current declaration with this:
ul.nav li img {
vertical-align: middle;
The link I've posted in #2 shows how you can use a sprite. If you don't need the various link states, then one row is sufficient.
but how do i create the sprite if i have several images separate from each other
I think we are not on the same page with this code all the others worked fine. I am trying to get the menu to go in the space to the right of the logo marked "Rethink" how can I accomplish that
By using a graphics editor and creating a new image out of the single source images, placing them side by side or top to bottom.
You'd apply a width and a float for each container you want to have sit side by side. In your case, it'd be #insert_logo and ul.nav.
Ok tks never real used photoshop in any significant way but I will look into this tks for the advice
yeah kinda figured that out when playing around with the css just now tks for pinpointing it though
You can apply the images (png or gif) individually at first, then use http://spriteme.org/ to convert them to a sprite.

PODCAST: Breaking Down the BruinsClick Full Visit List for Saturday Here to view this Link.
BERKELEY -- When asked this week whether quarterback Zach Maynard has the arm to find receivers down field, California head coach Jeff Tedford defended his senior signal-caller.
"Can he throw the ball 30 yards? Is that what you're asking me? I think he can hit the routes," Tedford said. "Of course he can hit the routes. If it's not in the read progression, you know, quarterbacks don't have six eyes. They've got two eyes and the read progression tells you to go here or here. If something happens when he's rolling to the right and the guy falls down over here and he's running over here and the read progression goes flat, you come back to shallow cross, way over here, you can't see the whole thing. If they're in his read progression, yeah, he'll see him and he'll throw it to him."
This is the first key to the game: Going deep.
They key to attacking UCLA's physical secondary -- which picked Maynard off three times last year in Los Angeles -- seems to be going deep. In the Bruins' one loss against Oregon State, the Beavers hit five passes of over 20 yards, 11 over 10 yards and 10 over 15.
The only time Maynard has hit at least five passes of over 20 yards in one game was the season opener against Nevada, which, through five games, has the 96th-rated passing defense in the Football Bowl Subdivision.
Of his 87 completions this year, 42 have gone for more than 10 yards, and Maynard has hit 13 for 20 yards or more, with two of his four interceptions coming on pass attempts of over 20 yards.
"I think our offense feeds off big plays," said Maynard's brother -- junior wide receiver Keenan Allen, who has turned many of Maynard's short passes into big catch-and-runs. "If we start taking shots, we wouldn't be in those [third-and-long] situations, because when we take shots, we move quicker."
Hey, what the big man says, goes. Allen is the most dangerous playmaker on the team right now, and if he's dissatisfied by the lack of big-play gambles, maybe it's time to change things around.
Part of the reason that Maynard isn't able to complete some down field passes is the fact that he's been under tremendous pressure, taking an FBS-worst 25 sacks on the season, but another part is that his arm strength is simply not a strength.
"That takes a long time to get to your fourth progression," Tedford said. "That doesn't typically happen. The one where he scrambled the other day and threw the interception at 'SC, [Bryce] Treggs was wide open in the back of the end zone. He ran a post and he peeled back and Zach's running and he sees C.J. [Anderson] instead of seeing a little bit deeper, but there are a lot of things going on in front of him. Zach's capable of making any throw on the field. I think we've all seen him make numerous throws that way. They've just got to be in his read progression."
Throwing long -- or rather, Cal's inability to do so -- is going to be key this evening when the Bears face a UCLA secondary which is tied for second in the nation in interceptions, with nine.
"Real opportunistic. The ball will get batted up in the air, and they're flying around and playing so hard and they believe in what they're doing that they're creating things," said offensive coordinator Jim Michalczik. "I think their pass rush is really solid, and I think that does a lot of it. They put some heat on the quarterback, and if you throw balls early, they're not the best balls."
That leads to the second key for the game: pass protection.
The Bears have allowed an FBS-worst 25 sacks this season. Six of those have come on third-and-long, exacerbating an already-difficult situation and delivering an even bigger blow in the field position battle. UCLA is second in the league in sacks with 18, with a lot of power up front on linebacker Anthony Barr and Datone Jones, who's looking to return to the form that had him as one of the most dangerous defensive linemen in the league over the first three games.
Cal has been put in 33 third-and-longs this season, with 'long' defined as 10 yards or more. On those plays, the Bears have been flagged four times, rushed 14 times for 21 yards and gone 6-for-15 passing for 54 yards. So, suffice it to say that once the Bears get into those situations, they rarely get out, and in fact, have only converted two third-and-longs.
The key will be to not get into those situations in the first place, and that means giving Maynard time to throw, and giving him the chance to try to hit Bryce Treggs and Chris Harper down field.
"We just have to start making plays, and by plays, I mean big plays," said Treggs. "Every team that we've played, they've made a big plays or two big plays to separate themselves late in the fourth quarter, so we need to come out and make plays in the fourth quarter, so we can put ourselves in a situation to win."
Veteran Bruins corners Aaron Hester and Sheldon Price are very physical in press, and are likely to jam youngsters Treggs and Harper off the line to try and get them off their game, and disrupt even further the razor-thin timing margin they'll have with Maynard under pressure.
"We just have to get open faster, because I like to think of myself as a down field threat, but he really hasn't that much time to drop back and really make an accurate throw down field," Treggs said. "That just motivates us to get open faster, because he has less time to throw accurate balls."
That passing game won't be anything close to what it can be unless the Bears can actually be a threat with the run, and that all falls on running backs coach Ron Gould and how he uses dynamic tailback Brendan Bigelow.
Tedford said earlier this week that he and Gould have had multiple conversations about getting the ball into Bigelow's hands, and at this point, Tedford's job may depend on it.
In those third-and-long situations, the Bears have averaged just 1.5 yards per rush. The only tailback on the roster who averages more than 10 yards per carry is Bigelow. Despite his pass protection issues, he's the only back who can get the needed yards if Cal insists on running on third-and-long.
The Bears own the fifth-best rushing offense in the league, and that's still with being unable to run through the A-gap. The Bruins are eighth in the circuit in rushing defense. That's going to be a soft spot that Cal needs to exploit.
And speaking of rushing, that brings us to our final key to the game: Defending the run.
Cal has been woeful in defending the spread or zone-read or option-based offenses for the entirety of defensive coordinator Clancy Pendergast's career. At times it's been a lack of eye discipline by the outside linebackers, and at others, it's been safety play. Pendergast may have finally found an effective weapon last week in sophomore safety Avery Sebastian, who tallied a game-high 15 tackles in last week's contest.
Sebastian, safety Michael Lowe and cornerback Marc Anthony were the three leading tacklers for the Bears last week, but even though his defensive backs are making the bulk of the stops, Pendergast said that is not an indication of a porous defense at the college level.
"I think, when you look at college football, the secondary players are going to make a lot of tackles because in college football, because of the hash marks, the ball will distribute outside the numbers a lot," Pendergast said. "Your corners are going to have a lot of tackles, your safeties, your nickel backs, that type of thing. In the NFL, if your corners have to make a lot of tackles, that means they're throwing at them every down. It's a completely different game because the hash marks in the pro game, the ball's always in the middle, so it's hard to really use the field, one way or the other. In college, you have more room to one side or the other, so they distribute the ball."
Last season, it was Kevin Prince carving Cal for 163 yards on the ground, with Johnathan Franklin only accounting for 45 of UCLA's 294 yards on the ground. This year, Franklin is at the head of the Bruins rushing attack, which ranks second in the league only to Oregon. Franklin is first in the Pac-12 in rushing with 139.4 yards per game and a staggering 7.5 yards per rush -- second only to the Ducks' DeAnthony Thomas.
Redshirt freshman quarterback Brett Hundley is also very talented with his legs, but is not completely dependent on them. The task that the Cal defense has in front of it is to take advantage of a very young UCLA offensive line which features three freshmen and one sophomore. If the Bears can put Hundley on his back or at least make him think twice before taking off, they'll have eliminated one of his big weapons. However, Cal has not yet done that this season, totaling just 10 sacks -- ninth in the conference. If Hundley has time to get it in the air, watch out. The Bears are 11th in the conference in passer efficiency defense, allowing opposing QBs to notch a 139.8 rating against them.
Getting that pressure may be difficult without the injured Aaron Tipoti, who is likely to miss his second week with a knee injury. That means more time for youngsters Todd Barr and Mustafa Jalil on the ends, and perhaps another start for the run-plugging Viliami Moala in the middle of the defensive line.
Brennan Scarlett will also continue his run as starter at the outside linebacker position, opposite Chris McCain, despite a broken hand, and he's been one of the best at maintaining eye discipline and staying home to help seal off the edge against option teams.
If Cal can bottle up the run and as a consequence not bite on read plays, they'll be better able to defend the pass, and won't be nearly as hesitant to drop back into coverage.

At the start of the season most users of PD anticipated we would be a sub .500 team with others predicting we'd be right around .500 I'm sure you all would agree that this team definitely has the ability to be much better than our current record says. We have ran with the best in the league and beat the best on a coupel occasions. As it stands though half way through the season we are at 15-26. With how things have gone thus far, I for one would be very pleased if this team could finish .500 That would require us to go 26-15 the rest of the way. Let's take an in depth look at the remaining games on the schedule.
I'll just start by naming all the teams that we will no longer play in the second half of the season:
Golden State, Lakers, New Jersey, New Orleans, and Phoenix. Of those teams, if I look at the standings right now it appears Golden State is the only one that is not formidable. Not having to play the Lakers, Suns, or Hornets again is huge.
Now for the teams we will only play once more. I will call these teams Group A: Houston, Memphis, Boston, Denver, Sacramento, Clippers, Utah, Dallas, Oklahoma City, and Detroit. There are some very tough teams in that lineup. Off the surface it could be expected that we go 4-6 against those teams. I believe that we can go 6-4 with wins over Memphis, Sac-town, the Clippers, OKC, Detroit, and a win over either Houston or Dallas. Thus 6-4
Next is the teams we play twice for the remainder of the season. I will call these teams Group B: San Antonio, Orlando, Miami, New York, Minnesota, Portland, Toronto, Philadelphia, Washington, Cleveland, and Atlanta. This obviously makes up the most daunting portion of our remaining schedule. There are some very tough teams in that group. Assuming we drop both games to the Spurs, Magic, and Cavs, that leaves 16 games up for grabs. I believe we will split games with the Blazers, Hawks, Heat, and Sixers. I don't see any reason why we can't win both games against the rest of the teams. That would leave us with a 12-10 record against those teams.
Lastly is the teams we play three times. They will be called Group C. We only play Chicago, Charlotte, and Milwaukee three times for the remainder of the season. None of those teams are powerhouses, granted the season is only half over at this point and any of them could presumably catch fire. I may be thinking a little optimistic here but I don't see why we can't go 8-1 for those nine games with our only loss coming to the Bucks. All three of those teams are currently just a couple games ahead of us in the standings. If we can play the way we have against the elite teams in the league then we should have no problem disposing of these three teams.
If all goes as I have predicted, our second half record would be 26-15; Group A: 6-4, Group B: 12-10, Group C: 8-1. I plan to keep an updated post on how we are doing against each of these teams as compared to my prediction. There could be instances where we beat some teams I did not expect and lose to some teams I planned on beating. But I believe that breaking the schedule down as I have above makes it appear a little less daunting to finish .500
I invite you guys to please share your thoughts and opinions on how you believe we will fair against each group I have listed above (hence labeling them Group A, B and C to make it easier when discussing each group in your post). I'm sure each of you have your own spin on how you think we will finish and I just figured taking a look at the schedule as I have broken it down above makes for a more realistic prediciton.


text: He's a long ways away, because he has yet to practice. That is, he is far from game shape...way behind guys who are now fully tuned for the season. At best, he starts practicing within a week and can participate in a game sometime in January. I hope that's the plan, because I'm getting anxious to see him out there.

I made this for years with Splenda, but when I was making it recently on a hot Utah I used Stevia In the Raw Granular Sweetener, a relatively new product that I've really been liking. You can tell I think cilantro is an essential component in the salad by the way I listed it in the title, but if you're a cilantro hater I think thinly sliced green onions or mint would be a good substitute.
(Asian Cucumber Salad with Cilantro and Vidalia Onions was updated with new photos and better instructions and added to Recipe Favorites in August 2011.)
Asian Cucumber Salad with Cilantro and Vidalia Onions
(Makes 6 generous servings; recipe created by Kalyn and was inspired by thinly-sliced marinated cucumbers served with sushi.)
4 cucumbers, peeled in stripes, cut in half lengthwise, then into thick slices
1 large Vidalia onion or other sweet onion, peeled and cut into 1/4 inch thick slivers of onion
1 bunch cilantro washed and chopped just before using
Dressing Ingredients:
1 cup rice vinegar (don't use seasoned vinegar which contains sugar)
3 T Splenda, Stevia In the Raw Granular Sweetener, or sugar (Use Splenda or Stevia for South Beach Diet)
2 tsp. Asian sesame oil
2 tsp. garlic puree (also called ground garlic)
pinch hot pepper flakes (optional)
coarse ground black pepper to taste
Combine rice vinegar, Splenda or sugar, sesame oil, garlic, and hot pepper flakes (if using) and pour over cucumbers. Let marinate in refrigerator 2-3 hours. (You can leave it longer, but I prefer this when the cucumbers are still slightly crisp.)
Just before serving, wash, dry, and chop cilantro. (Don't be afraid to use some of the stem; it is considered a delicacy in parts of Asia.) Drain cucumbers and onions and combine with chopped cilantro, season with fresh ground pepper and serve.
This will keep in the refrigerator a day or two, but the vegetables won't be crisp. Of course this is best made with fresh-from-the-garden cucumbers, but if you only have from-the-store cucumbers, it's still pretty good!

The "fiscal cliff" is not the only "cliff" averted in Congress' last-minute negotiations: The so-called "milk cliff" was also avoided - for now. As part of the "fiscal cliff" deal, Congress passed a temporary extension of several agriculture subsidies, including one that would avoid a drastic spike in milk prices.
Because Congress was unable to pass an extension of the farm bill before the end of the year, milk prices were expected to rise to $7 or $8 a gallon in the new year because the milk subsidy program would revert back to an antiquated formula that was implemented in 1949. But a provision written by "fiscal cliff" negotiator Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., was added to the "fiscal cliff" bill and Congress passed a nine-month extension of the current subsidy program, which will keep milk prices stable.
While the fix takes care of the most immediate concern to most Americans - milk prices - it also extends $5 billion worth of government subsidies for commodities such as corn and soybeans, regardless of whether farmers grow crops. While farmers covet the expensive subsidy, critics decry it as wasteful, misdirected government spending.
Other programs, however, were cut, including conservation, organic growing, and fruit and vegetable programs.
Senate Agriculture Committee chairman Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich., praised the last-minute extension of the dairy program, but said she was disappointed in the contents of the rest of the bill. "I am deeply concerned that Republican Leader Mitch McConnell insisted on including an incomplete Farm Bill extension that ends funding for important parts of the bill," she wrote in a statement. "Senator McConnell insisted on a partial extension that reforms nothing, provides no deficit reduction, and hurts many areas of our agriculture economy"
Farming interest groups lambasted the bill. "The deal is blatantly anti-reform," the National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition wrote in an abrasive statement. "The message is unmistakable - direct commodity subsidies, despite high market prices, are sacrosanct, while the rest of agriculture and the rest of rural America can simply drop dead.
The Senate passed a farm bill extension in June and but the House never voted on it or its own version, leading to the version passed last night. Congress will now have until the next fiscal year, which begins Oct. 1, to pass a more typical five-year extension.

HUNDREDS of aspiring performers were in the spotlight last night when they took part in the Swindon Schools' Dance Festival.
Primary and secondary pupils performed Olympic and Paralympic themed dances on stage at the Wyvern Theatre in front of more than 1,000 people during two performances yesterday.
The event, which was organised by Swindon School Sport Partnership, was so successful that similar events are already being planned.
Andy Steckbeck, a spokesman for Swindon School Sport Partnership, said: "We wanted to provide pupils with an opportunity to perform on stage. It is something special for the children and they get the chance to go backstage too.
"We were a little bit taken aback by how many schools responded, it has been fantastic."
About 30 schools took part in the event, including about 90 children from Grange Infant School.
"Our focus is on working with PE, and dance is part of the curriculum," said Andy.
"Some of the students have devised their own dances and in other cases the schools have done it as a club or during a PE lesson. We left it open for the schools to decide.
"Their routines could have a general Olympic theme or they could be about countries of the world or the Olympic values."
The schools have been working on their routines since September.
The first performance, which was at 4.30pm, was sold out and the second performance, which was at 7.30pm, only had a few tickets left.
Each of the schools performed for about five minutes.
"It is the first time we have done this, we wanted to mark the Olympic year," said Andy.
"The Olympics is all about trying to provide more opportunities for children to get involved in sport and this is just something a bit different.
"Because we have had so much interest, we are talking about doing it again before the end of the school year.
"I think when other schools in the area hear about it they will want to take part too."

Taylor makes strong first impression on offense
BALTIMORE -- The Mariners have always been high on the defensive skills of young shortstop Chris Taylor, a fifth-round Draft pick out of Virginia in 2012. But one of the questions was whether he'd be able to hit at the big league level.
So far, so good in that regard, as the 23-year-old rookie is hitting .375 (9-for-24) with three doubles in his first seven games since being promoted from Triple-A Tacoma after going 2-for-4 in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Orioles.
"I feel comfortable at the plate," Taylor said. "These pitchers pound the strike zone. You have to be ready to hit. They're coming right at you."
Manager Lloyd McClendon said he's been pleased with the youngster so far, as Taylor has split time with Brad Miller.
"I like what I see," McClendon said. "He plays a pretty good shortstop, he handles himself at the plate pretty good. He has great instincts for the game. He's doing a nice job."
The 6-foot-1, 190-pounder produced well with the bat in the Minors as well and earned his midseason promotion by hitting .328/.397/.497 with five homers and 37 RBIs in 75 games for Tacoma this year. McClendon said he's never been concerned about that phase of Taylor's game since his arrival.
"From what I saw in Spring Training, I thought he'd be a player that handled the bat," McClendon said. "I didn't think he'd be overmatched, and he hasn't disappointed."

RECIPES: Recipe Details
Caribbean Coconut Pork Burger with Tropical Toasted Coconut Mayo and Mint-Papaya Slaw
I love the Caribbean. The bright blue skies and rich blue waters. And the food!! The flavors of the food are so bright and just pop in your mouth! I wanted to created a Caribbean burger that features one of my favorite Caribbean flavors: coconut. It starts off with ground pork that has some coconut and coconut milk as well as other Caribbean spices in it as well. Then you top the patty with some Mint-Papaya Slaw. And lastly smear some Tropical Toasted Coconut Mayo (which is a delicious mayonnaise infused with coconut, guava nectar, and key lime juice) on a toasted bun and you have yourself a great Caribbean Coconut Burger!!
1/4 cup shredded coconut, toasted
1/4 cup guava nectar
1 tablespoon key lime juice (or fresh lime juice)
1 cup mayonnaise
3/4 cup green papaya, shredded
1/4 cup onion, julienned
2 tablespoons coconut milk
2 tablespoons key lime juice (or fresh lime juice)
2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves, chopped
2 pounds ground pork
1/2 cup shredded coconut, finely chopped
2 tablespoons coconut milk
1 teaspoons garlic, finely minced
1 teaspoon ground allspice
2 teaspoons sea salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for brushing on the grill rack
6 hamburger buns, split
Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill with a cover, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high.
To make Tropical Toasted Coconut Mayo, in the bowl of a food processor combine toasted shredded coconut, guava nectar, key lime juice, and mayonnaise; process until well combined. Refrigerate until serving.
To make Mint-Papaya Slaw, in a medium mixing bowl combine papaya, onion, coconut milk, key lime juice, and mint. Mix well to combine.
To make the patties, combine the pork, shredded coconut, coconut milk, garlic, allspice, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Handling the meat as little as possible to avoid compacting it, mix well. Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and form the portions into patties to fit the buns.
Brush the grill rack with vegetable oil. Place the patties on the rack, cover, and cook, turning once, just until done, about 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. During the last few minutes of cooking, place the buns, cut side down, on the outer edges of the rack to toast lightly.
To assemble the burgers, place a generous amount of Tropical Toasted Coconut Mayo on the cut sides of the buns. On each bun bottom, place a patty and an equal amount of Mint-Papaya Slaw. Add the bun tops and serve.

|Assigned Interventions
KS structured clinical care training
Eight primary care sites in Zimbabwe will be randomized at different timepoints to receive structured training for diagnosis and treatment of Kaposi sarcoma (KS)
Other: KS structured clinical care training
Eight primary care sites in Zimbabwe will receive structured training for diagnosis and treatment of Kaposi sarcoma (KS)
Detailed Description:
The "Strategies to Improve Kaposi Sarcoma (KS) Outcomes in Zimbabwe" (SIKO Study) will consist of both an interventional and an observational component. Eight (8) primary care sites in Zimbabwe will be randomized to receive structured training on Kaposi sarcoma (KS) diagnosis and treatment. This intervention will be evaluated through the utilization of three components; the KS Standardized Evaluation (KS-SE), integration of palliative care and an algorithm-based KS management strategy at the sites. The impact of the overall intervention will be evaluated using a step-wedge randomized cluster trial design in which the 8 primary care sites will be randomized to receive the intervention at different time points such that the intervention will be eventually be implemented at all sites during the 2 year (102 weeks) course of the study. The 2 year evaluation period will consist of a monitoring period, followed by an intervention period.
The observational component of the SIKO study will be the enrollment of all patients who are found to have Kaposi sarcoma (KS) during either the monitoring or intervention periods at any of eight study sites. After informed consent is obtained, information of HIV status, KS diagnosis and staging, demographic data and a quality of life questionnaire will be collected, along with A glycoprotein predominantly found on the surface of helper T cells. (CD4+) counts (if available), antiretroviral (ARV) medication and tuberculosis and KS treatment history. Patients will continue to be followed over the course of the study.
