Fishing-knife mishap delays Peavy's spring debut
FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Red Sox right-hander Jake Peavy suffered a laceration of his left index finger and will miss his scheduled start against the Pirates on Monday.
Peavy suffered the injury at home, cutting his finger on a fishing knife. Red Sox manager John Farrell said the righty was fortunate because it could have been a lot worse.
"This was a freak one," Farrell said. "Honestly, he avoided some serious injury with what took place. He was trying to cut through something and when it gave way, it almost cut through his left index finger."
In a baseball sense, Peavy was also highly fortunate that he cut his non-throwing hand.
"The fact is, we can pad that index finger too, when it's on his glove hand," Farrell said. "Nowhere near the impact had it been the other hand."
The Red Sox hope Peavy can still start the regular season on time.
"It probably depends on when he gets back to his throwing program and how fast we can get him back to the mound," Farrell said.
Peavy won't throw for three days, according to Farrell. The training staff will re-evaluate him after that.
"We can keep his arm in shape, but he's a scratch for [Monday]," said Farrell, who will send Brandon Workman to the mound in Peavy's place.
Earlier in Spring Training, Peavy had an injury to his right ring finger that cleared up after a few days. Monday would have been his first Grapefruit League start.

Cinnamon Roll Monkey Bread in a Bundt Pan
Hubby and I have some super creative friends. One of these friends decided to host a "Bundt Off". Apparently there had been a discussion about what makes a bundt a bundt. They decided it would be appropriate to have a cooking contest that revolved around the bundt pan. The only rule for the competition was that whatever you made, it had to hold the shape of a bundt pan when turned out onto a plate.
I searched through all my favorite blogs for bundt cake recipes and saw some great ones out there. But I wanted something more unique. I couldn't just do a chocolate cake in a bundt pan. I went through all sorts of crazy ideas and used Hubby as a sounding board.
I finally decided to combine two of my favorite breakfast foods into one bundt-tastic treat: The Cinnamon-Roll Monkey-Bread Bundt. I used the cinnamon roll recipe from the cinnamon roll cupcakes that I made last August, but I just made them smaller by cutting the dough in half lenthwise once it was rolled out. After I let the mini cinnamon rolls rise for the second time, I stacked them into the bundt pan with some additional cinnamon/sugar filling between each layer just like Monkey Bread.
Hubby grabbed my camera and snapped a few photos as I was assembling my bundt. Once the cinnamon rolls had all been stacked into the bundt pan, I threw it in the oven for about 40 minutes.
If I had been making this for us to eat at home, I would have immediately turned it out onto a plate when it came out of the oven. That would have given a nice gooey sauce oozing out from between the cinnamon rolls. However, for the competition, we had to turn out bundts out at the event. This meant that the ooey-gooey caramel sauce set up a bit during the 15 minute car ride over to the Bundt Off. It was still delicious, just not as ooey-gooey as I would have preferred.
I topped the bundt with some cream cheese frosting. As expected, this bundt was amazing! Everyone really enjoyed it. As far as the competition goes, I took second place, losing by just one point. However, one of the categories was bribery (we were encouraged to bribe the judges). I wanted to let my cooking speak for itself so I didn't partake in any bribing. The winning bundt was a pull-apart pizza roll stuffed with pepperoni and cheese. It was quite tasty! Congrats again, L!
By the way, I didn't get any good pictures of the bundt turned out with the lovely cream cheese frosting drizzled on it. It was quite a site to see. But my impatience and the lighting at my friend's house just weren't working. It did look very similar to the monkey bread that was just posted on Smitten Kitchen.
One Year Ago: Red Velvet Cupcakes and My New Favorite Way to Frost Cupcakes
Cinnamon Roll Monkey Bread Bundt with Cream Cheese Frosting
Yield: 1 bundt, serves 6-8
For the Cinnamon Rolls
2 1/4 tsp. or 1 packet (1/4 oz./7 g) dry active yeast
1/2 cup granulated sugar, divided
1 cup warm milk
2 eggs, room temperature
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 tsp. salt
4 1/2 cups bread flour
1 cup brown sugar, packed
2 1/2 Tbsp. ground cinnamon
1/3 cup butter, softened
For the Cream Cheese Frosting
4 oz cream cheese at room temp
1/2 stick butter at room temp
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
powdered sugar
For the Cinnamon Rolls
Dissolve the yeast and 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar in the warm milk in a large bowl and let stand for about 10 minutes until foamy.
Mix in the eggs, butter, salt, and other 1/4 cup of granulated sugar. Add flour and mix until well blended and the dough forms a ball. Put in a bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about one hour).
After the dough has doubled in size, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface, cover and let rest for 10 minutes. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon. Spray bundt pan with PAM.
Roll dough into a 12x22 inch rectangle. Spread dough with 1/3 cup butter and sprinkle evenly with sugar/cinnamon mixture. Cut dough in half lengthwise so you have two long skinny rectangles. Starting with the cut edge, roll each rectangle and then cut into 24 rolls each for a total of 48 mini-cinnamon rolls.
Place the cinnamon rolls on a large cookie sheet. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Once the rolls have risen again, start stacking them into the bundt pan. Between layers, sprinkle additional brown sugar and cinnamon.
Bake bundt in preheated oven until golden brown, about 40-50 minutes. Allow bundt to cool 5 minutes then turn out onto serving plate. Drizzle frosting over bundt and serve warm or at room temperature.
For the Cream Cheese Frosting
Cream butter and cream cheese until fluffy.
Add vanilla extract.
Slowly add powdered sugar until desired consistency is reached.

The 2013 Mizzou Tiger basketball class added another member today as Torren Jones ended his recruitment shortly after leaving Columbia where he had been on his official visit. Jones becomes the fourth member of Frank Haith's 2013 class joining Johnathan Williams III, Wesley Clark, and Travis Jorgenson.
"I just see myself playing for Coach Haith and him developing me as a player," Jones said. "Working on my game individually and as a team. I just felt like it is the best fit for me right now."
Jones called the coaches to inform them of his decision while traveling to the airport. As expected they were all very happy to get the news.
"They were very excited," said Jones. "They were happy we got it done."
For Jones the main factor in his decision to commit to Mizzou was his relationship with the coaches and players, but there were also some other factors that made the decision a no brainer.
"They're great facilities," raved Jones. "They have an individual weight room just for basketball which is nice because we won't have to share with anybody. Just the atmosphere when the gym is packed will be great. I like that it is a college town and everybody supports Mizzou."
Once Jones gets to Mizzou he plans to major in sports management and minor in business, but until then he is working to get ready for his senior year. Jones, a 6-foot-8 forward with a knack for finishing in the post, has set some big goals for his final high school season.
"I'm working my butt off every day trying to get better so that it pays off in the season," Jones said. "Trying to get this national prep school championship under my belt before I go off to college."
The four man class that the Tiger coaches have assembled will be ranked around 15 nationally when the new rankings come out. Jones does not know his future teammates yet, but that will change soon.
"I've heard of Wes Clark and J3, but I don't know them personally. I'm looking forward to playing alongside them. We'll start talking cause of the bridge program they do for new recruits. I'll talk to them about that," said Jones.
Rivals.com national basketball recruiting analyst Eric Bossi has watched Jones play several times and likes what he brings to Mizzou.
"I think he brings great energy to the floor, has a body to build on, and is a great guy that gets being a great teammate. Torren is a hard working guy that will clean things up down low," according to Bossi.
PowerMizzou.com will monitor Jones, who plans to sign during the fall signing period, senior season and keep Tiger fans updated on any news.

Barnes bringing consistent effort
DENVER -- It's harder to hustle some days than others, as Rockies outfielder Brandon Barnes can vouch.
One of the unsung plays in Saturday night's 11-10 victory over the Mets came in the fifth inning. Barnes bounced to short and dashed down the line trying to stay out of a double play. The throw was close, and Mets first baseman Lucas Duda didn't hang onto the throw. But Barnes didn't make it easy, and later in the inning Nolan Arenado's grand slam gave the Rockies the lead.
Barnes has brought consistent effort. He had to dig a little deeper that night. He was affected by the same flu bug that has landed infielder Josh Rutledge and catcher Wilin Rosario on the 15-day disabled list. His version was milder, but it didn't exactly tickle.
"I think I got through a lot better than 'Rosie' [Rosario] and 'Rutty' did," said Barnes, who led off Monday night against the Rangers' difficult lefty Martin Perez. "I tried to take care of myself, make sure I'm ready to go.
"Once I stepped in between the lines, my adrenaline and passion for the game took over. I knew we needed something to get us going. It didn't happen the way I wanted, grounding into a possible double play, but I'm going to run hard down the line every single time."
Barnes, hitting .233 with three RBIs, led off and played right field, and Drew Stubbs, hitting .250 with a home run and four RBIs, hit second and played center in a right-handed top of the lineup. Lefty hitters Charlie Blackmon and Corey Dickerson did not start.
In addition to Barnes, righty reliever Chris Martin was bothered by the bug during the weekend but felt better Monday.

Notes on the Work
In Natural Things (2007), a new work composed especially for Opus 21, Rzewski attempts to mirror the sonic realities of the real world in which spontaneous things simply happen. According to the composer, a total of 49 events—sometimes related, sometimes not—"come out of nowhere and point to nowhere" as in "a sequence of unanticipated household events: a telephone call, a child's tantrum."
It is fitting that this work is
receiving its New York premiere
on May Day (May 1), the annual
holiday held around the world in
support of workers' rights, since
the work is also inspired by the
origins of May Day—the
Haymarket Massacre in Chicago
on May 1, 1886, which erupted
after laborers struck seeking an
eight-hour work day. In portions
of Rzewski's composition, musicians
recite texts from speeches
made in support of workers'
rights by a group of demonstration
organizers, known as the
Haymarket Martyrs, who were
wrongfully sentenced to death
for the massacre: for instance,
"There will come a time when
our silence will be more powerful than the voices you strangle
today." At one point in the score,
one of the percussionists is asked
to speak through a megaphone
as though at a labor rally.

Sleep Disorders
Always Sleepy and Tired
I am sleepy most of the day. I get 7-8 hours of sleep a day. However, I can fall asleep at any time. As soon as I sit down and relax, I am asleep within 5 minutes. It doesn`t matter where I am. I only feel rested for the first couple of hours of the day. Could this be some sort of sleep disorder?
It is obvious that this sleepiness is a problem for you and you are right to seek advice. Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) has many causes and there are a number of possible causes to consider. These can be broadly categorized into primary sleep disorders and problems that can affect your sleep that are not sleep disorders per se.
The most common cause of EDS is that individuals have insufficient total sleep time or a lack of adequate sleep. Not sleeping enough hours (a condition called sleep restriction) is can lead to excessive sleepiness during the day and is easily fixed by increasing your sleep time. From your question, it appears that you are probably getting enough sleep, though keep in mind that some individuals may need more than 8 hours per night to feel adequately rested.
In terms of sleep disorders, there are conditions that fragment your sleep during the night such that the sleep quality is poor and this can lead to daytime sleepiness. The most common of these sleep disorders is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This is a condition where the upper airway behind the tongue and soft palate is narrowed so that when the person falls asleep, the airway may partially or completely close off. An arousal from sleep can result from either the effort to breath or if the oxygen level drops as a result of the reduced airflow. These arousals can occur recurrently throughout the night which results in poor quality sleep and thus daytime sleepiness. Those at risk for OSA tend to be overweight, have a thick neck size (17 inches or greater in males and 16 inches in females), male gender, and those over the age of 60. However, individuals not meeting these criteria can have OSA as well. There is often a history of loud snoring during sleep, choking or gasping at night, witnessed apneas (bed partners see the lack of breathing), and unrefreshing sleep. OSA is diagnosed with an overnight sleep study (polysomnography).
Another sleep disorder that causes sleepiness is called narcolepsy. This is a condition where a person may sleep through the night although commonly, people with narcolepsy say they will initially fall asleep fast but keep waking up during the night. They may or may not feel refreshed when they wake up but become sleepy again a few hours later. Naps may help the person feel refreshed. There are other symptoms that may go with this condition such as sleep paralysis (person wakes up with a sensation that they can't move), hypnagogic hallucinations (seeing images from dreams as one is falling asleep) and cataplexy (muscle weakness or loss of muscle tone with extreme emotions - particularly laughter). Narcolepsy is diagnosed with a sleep study where you sleep overnight (polysomnography) and then stay for a series of naps the next day (multiple sleep latency test or MSLT).
A third sleep condition is called idiopathic hypersomnia. This is a condition where one sleeps all night but does not feel refreshed on awakening and dozes off during the day. Naps are typically not refreshing. This too needs to be diagnosed with a PSG and MSLT.
Aside from these conditions, numerous other factors may influence the quality of your sleep. These can range from the environment you sleep in (i.e. too warm, too loud) to your other medical problems (i.e. heartburn or breathing problems) to medications you may taking. Fragmented sleep from any of these conditions can lead to daytime fatigue and sleepiness. Depression can also cause people to feel sleepy during the day and needs to be considered.
As you can see, there are a number of possible explanations for your symptoms and it would best to undergo a thorough evaluation to determine how best to proceed. You should probably discuss this problem with your primary care physician first and then seek the opinion of a Sleep Specialist if needed.

The U.S. Supreme Court today paved the way for same-sex couples to marry soon in California, effectively leaving intact a lower-court ruling that struck down the state's voter-approved ban on gay marriage.
In a ruling that assures further legal battles, the high court found that backers of Proposition 8 did not have the legal right to defend the voter-approved gay marriage ban in place of the governor and attorney general, who have refused to press appeals of a federal judge's 2010 ruling finding the law unconstitutional.
The Supreme Court ruling, which found it had no legal authority to decide the merits of a challenge to Proposition 8, sends the case back to that original decision -- and the only question now is how quickly same-sex couples can marry and whether that ruling will have immediate statewide effect.
The 5-4 ruling was written by Chief Justice John Roberts.
The Supreme Court also struck down a 1996 federal law denying benefits to same-sex couples, a major victory for gay rights advocates seeking the right to marry. In a 5-4 ruling written by Justice Anthony Kennedy, the high court found the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act unconstitutional because it violates the equal protection rights of same-sex couples.
The Supreme Court's decision in the DOMA case immediately provides full federal benefits to same-sex couples in the 12 states that have legalized gay marriage, and would apply in California with Proposition 8 overturned. It also would provide federal benefits to the more than 18,000 same-sex couples married in 2008 before Proposition 8 was passed.
The Supreme Court's much-anticipated rulings come at a time when the nation's views on the controversial gay marriage issue have shifted considerably. Twelve states permit gay marriage, and politicians from President Barack Obama to three Republican senators have come out in favor of permitting gay and lesbian couples to wed.
The Obama administration, in fact, took the unprecedented step of urging the Supreme Court to find both Proposition 8 and the federal Defense of Marriage Act unconstitutional.
In California, a Field Poll earlier this year showed 61 percent of voters back gay marriage, much stronger support than when 52 percent of voters approved Proposition 8 five years ago and a profound change from 1996, when Congress passed the federal law denying equal marriage benefits to same-sex couples. At that time, the public was overwhelmingly against gay marriage.
The Supreme Court's decision in the Proposition 8 case punctuates the state's nine-year struggle over gay marriage, which began in 2004 when former San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom tried to skirt California's ban on same-sex nuptials by issuing marriage licenses to gay and lesbian couples at city hall.
That short-lived maneuver, blocked by the California Supreme Court, spawned the first legal conflagration over same-sex marriage rights in the state. In that case, the state Supreme Court in May 2008 struck down California's previous laws banning gay marriage, paving the way for more than 18,000 couples to marry before voters approved Proposition 8 in November and restored the same-sex marriage ban.
Those same-sex marriages were left intact, and, with the overturn of DOMA, the couples now are entitled to full marriage benefits.
A Los-Angeles-based organization, backed by civil rights activists and Hollywood types such as director Rob Reiner, moved in early 2009 to overturn Proposition 8. Suing in San Francisco federal court on behalf of two same-sex couples, including Berkeley's Kristin Perry and Sandy Stier, the group argued that California's same-sex marriage ban is unconstitutional because gay and lesbian couples are denied the same marriage rights offered to heterosexual couples.
The legal challenge set up an unprecedented test of a state's right to outlaw gay marriage, crafted by an unlikely powerhouse duo of famed trial lawyer David Boies and Theodore Olson, the conservative former U.S. Solicitor General during the Bush administration. Bodies and Olson had squared off against each other in Bush v. Gore, but teamed up to force the U.S. Supreme Court to eventually tackle the gay marriage issue.
In early 2010, former Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker held a three-week trial in which Proposition 8 backers defended the law without any help from California's top officials. Walker later declared the law unconstitutional, in the process becoming the target of gay marriage foes when he publicly revealed he was in a long-term same-sex relationship, a fact that had been well-known in Bay Area legal circles.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld Walker last year, albeit in a narrower ruling that found Proposition 8 unconstitutionally stripped away the previous right to marry in California without any justification. That led to the Supreme Court's intervention in the case.
The Proposition 8 case has been clouded by a number of legal intricacies, notably whether the ballot measure's sponsors even have a right to defend the California law in lieu of Gov. Jerry Brown and Attorney General Kamala Harris, who consider it unconstitutional.
The Supreme Court heard arguments in the Proposition 8 and DOMA cases in March. The challenge to the federal law was pressed by Edith Windsor, an 84-year-old New York woman who was denied equal estate benefits when her spouse and partner of 40 years died in 2009, costing her hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxes that a heterosexual married couple would not have to pay.
A federal appeals court declared the law unconstitutional last year, one of several such DOMA rulings around the country that have been put on hold in the Supreme Court. One of those involves San Francisco's Karen Golinski, a staff attorney for the 9th Circuit who was denied federal health benefits for her spouse, Amy Cunninghis, after they married in 2008 in the months before Proposition 8's passage.
A San Francisco federal judge struck down DOMA in their case, which has been awaiting the outcome of the Supreme Court's ruling.

First, let me say that I would MUCH prefer email instead of PMs. Please send offers to firstname.lastname@example.com .
OK, so the Venice Vagabonds are looking to shake up our mid-level players and will entertain trade ideas that send multiples to you for one guy that we can count on.
I would prefer to stay in the draft (though I wouldn't mind going up ;) ) so I don't care if you trade me the rights to players I'll cut or if we just do 2-for-1 or 3-for-1 deals and you do the cutting from your squad.
Please keep in mind that I mostly want to shed myself of both the older players and/or the high FPPM bench guys on my roster. It's time to get a rockstar.
Thank you and happy gaming.

A-LEVEL students at Burnley College Sixth Form spoke to multilingual employees during a recent trip to aerospace factory Aircelle.
Physics and foreign language students took part in the visit, which included a tour translated into French by an Aircelle employee.
The students were able to ask questions in French to gain an insight into how languages can be applied to a practical context.
The experience allowed students to see how the knowledge and experience they are developing in the classroom can be applied in a number of ways, including local industry, and does not always involve travelling.
It also allowed them to try out their language skills with native speakers.
Miriam Sherman, head of foreign languages at Burnley College, said: "We regularly arrange visits to France to enrich the studies of our A-level students, but we're eager to find ways to do it locally as well.
"This scheme shows students that there are excellent career opportunities within the local area for those who can speak another language."

THIS time last year Witton Albion were fourth in the table, five points adrift of top spot in the table.
Their latest loss, a third time this season they have endured a hat-trick of defeats, leaves them outside of the relegation zone on goal difference.
There was a dark cloud over Wincham Park by the time Ashton substitute Joe O'Neill nicked the points for Ashton with a header in stoppage time, helping the Robins to record a fourth successive league win.
For Brian Pritchard, an encouraging debut by new recruit Scott Bakkor in attack at least supplied a silver lining.
After seven defeats on their own pitch – each by a single goal – in a dozen games, Witton need one.
This tale was all too familiar.
Ashton, already conquerors of Albion in the FA Cup this term, assumed the initiative.
Lee Rick's corners put the hosts under pressure, so much so that Josh Hancock was lucky not to slice an attempted clearance into his own goal.
Martin Pilkington sneaked into a shooting space, spotted by Rick from the right, but Witton goalkeeper Matt Cooper blocked smartly.
Gradually the hosts woke up.
Anthony Gardner, covering for absent Michael Powell in midfield, burst clear from the centre circle on 22 minutes. But his last touch before shooting was heavy, making it easier for custodian Paul Phillips to smother.
Ashton's threat from set pieces had not receded, Jay Gorton escaping the attention of Ben Harrison to head home another Rick flag kick at a moment when Witton had control.
They reacted in the right way though.
Danny Andrews swerved a free kick over a wall that Phillips pawed over the bar, then Ally Brown blasted into the side netting after Ashton failed to clear.
The best chance was conjured by Jonathan Breeze for Bakkor who, after skipping around the Robins' custodian, sent a goal-bound shot too close to an alert Greg Pearson who cleared.
Witton did not apply pressure in the same sustained way in the second half, during which Ashton administered their lead by defending more deeply.
Cliff Moyo curved in a cross that picked out Chris Simm, another first-timer signed this week, but he could make only slight contact with his head and the ball skidded wide.
When they did score with nine minutes left, the source was unexpected.
Hancock's free kick, miss-hit, was re-directed into Harrison's path and he hooked in on the turn from close range.
Witton looked likely winners in the moments that followed, during which Simm was denied by Pearson when shaping to shoot and substitute Jon Dawson sent a dipping volley inches too high after Breeze swept a pass in his direction.
Ashton, victors in the corresponding fixture last season, sounded a warning when replacement Matty Chadwick was denied by Cooper after he rushed from his line.
Witton lost concentration in added time when a quickly-taken throw invited ex-Albion man Cavell Coo to assist O'Neill with a cross from the right.

LAKEPORT -- City police arrested a Lucerne man for allegedly stealing groceries, threatening a woman in the parking lot and touching her inappropriately Tuesday afternoon, a department spokesman announced.
John William Wright was booked into the Lake County Hill Road Correctional Facility on two felony and two misdemeanor charges early Wednesday morning.
Lakeport Police responded to 11th Street near the post office around 3:15 p.m. Tuesday after receiving a call from a man who said his wife was assaulted by a man with a shopping cart in the area, Lt. Jason Ferguson stated.
Ferguson, one of the responding officers, said he tracked down Wright, 24, walking along 11th Street near the Highway 29 northbound onramp soon after arriving on scene.
Wright allegedly had nearly $350 worth of groceries, which he could not produce a receipt for, in a Safeway shopping cart.
Officers learned during their investigation that Wright contacted a woman in the Safeway shopping center parking lot near the Mendo Lake Credit Union, according to Ferguson.
The lieutenant alleged Wright made sexual advances toward the woman and offered her drugs in exchange for sexual favors before grabbing her breast at least three times when she refused to comply and threatening to kill her if she told anybody about the encounter.
Wright left the area, and the woman drove home and told her husband about the incident, according to Ferguson, who said the couple returned to the scene and called police.
Ferguson said the woman positively identified Wright as the culprit. Safeway representatives claimed the stolen items, the lieutenant added.
Wright was arrested on felony charges of making criminal threats and burglary as well as misdemeanor counts of sexual battery and petty theft. He remained in custody at the county jail Wednesday afternoon with bail set at $15,000.

Newsweek: An Autopsy (And an Ex-Photo Editor's Lament)
Posted by Holly Hughes on Wednesday August 14, 2013 | Media, Photojournalism
Posted by Holly Hughes on Wednesday August 14, 2013 | Media, Photojournalism
A new exhibition co-curated by Marion Durand, a Newsweek photo editor and James Wellford, former senior photo editor who left Newsweek last year, celebrates some of the magazine's achievements in visual storytelling, and also features images that were never published. On display through September at Cortona on the Move, the photo festival in Tuscany, Italy, "Newsweek: An Autopsy" mixes magazine covers, framed prints and layouts from both the US and international editions of Newsweek from the past 12 years, and offers a window into editorial decision making. In a very candid interview, published in www.emahomagazine.com, Wellford talks about the exhibition and the "painful experience" of being unable to rally interest in serious photo essays. He says he was frustrated by the lack of support even before Newsweek became what he calls a "pamphlet" that covered more personality journalism than hard news. "There's a lot of compromise," he says.
Wellford says the problem was partly due to the downturn in print advertising, and Newsweek's lack of subscription revenue, which meant "the ability of the magazine to produce pages…and support writers and photographers went down the drain." But he also talks about much earlier incidents when, according to Wellford, Newsweek failed to support photographers in the field.
In 1994, when Wellford was freelancing for the magazine, for example, he says the magazine supported several photographers who were covering the genocide in Rwanda, including Gilles Peress. "But the fact that you support it doesn't mean that the magazine is going to run it, because remember the appetite for showing harshness constantly compromises the conversation in the newsroom." He notes that at certain moments of history-making news, "It's embarrassing what they were putting on the covers."
He says, "The biggest regret was not being able to support people in perilous situations." When photographer Laurent Van der Stockt, who was then a contract photographer with Newsweek, traveled on his own to Fallujah, Iraq, the site of two bloody battles of the Iraq war, Wellford wanted to "make sure he was secure." However, he says, "someone came up to me at Newsweek" and asked first if Van der Stockt was there on an assignment from Newsweek, and was then "relieved" to learn he wasn't – so Newsweek didn't act to ensure his safety. When Teru Kuwayama, working in Pakistan on assignment for the magazine, was injured in a car accident in which the driver was killed instantly, Wellford says only people he knew in Pakistan and "friends of mine at The New York Times and CNN…kept an eye on him." Wellford still doesn't know what money Newsweek gave to the driver's family. "I have never forgiven them for that," he says.
Wellford connects the lack of concern for the welfare of magazine contributors to a lack of regard for journalism in general. "It was about morality and ethics," he says.
"That to me has been lost, narcissism and the self seemed to take over. Of course you can't generalize, but there seems to be no cumulative sense of making statements that in time, historically, will reflect on genuine concern for the world."
The interview on emahomagazine.com includes a slide show of images by Alex Majoli, Paolo Pellegrin, Charles Omanney and other photographers in the show, as well as Wellford's explanation of how he chooses to edit and assign photojournalists.

What's the best headwear for searing, humid heat?
I recently moved to Tennessee, and...it's hot and humid here already.
I currently wear this:
The material feels like a really thin Shamwow, and wicks sweat ridiculously well. It's also very adjustable for size, so my uber dome (7 5/8) can squeeze in without trouble.
But, it's not exactly the coolest thing in the world to wear ball golf gear to the DG course.

DETROIT - A windy, cold and snowy Tuesday night has created slick conditions on Metro Detroit's roads.
Drivers are advised to take it slow and safe Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. The morning should arrive with scattered snow showers. Skies should eventually become partly cloudy by Wednesday afternoon.
For the latest forecast, radar and weather statements go to JustWeather.com.
Meanwhile, wet conditions with temps near 20 degrees will keep roadways slick and slippery. Two counties, Washtenaw and Wayne, have been issued special weather statements for bands of heavier lake effect snow.
That means the counties could see a burst of moderate to briefly heavy snowfall, according to the National Weather Service. Some areas could see 1 inch of snow an hour.

New Acquisitions
The Northern No. 14 (Dense Fog)
Beginning in the late 1980s, Chinese photography, previously dominated by social documentary and critique, evolved into a more diverse practice. Hai Bo's work is a primary example of the turn to more personal examinations of history and contemporary life. Over the last two decades, Hai Bo has returned repeatedly to his hometown of Changchun, in Jilin province in northeastern China. Focusing on the people and the landscape of this remote area, he creates studies on everyday life in a place forever altered by China's extraordinary economic growth.
The misty and denuded landscape in The Northern No. 14, Untitled No. 36, and Untitled No. 51 demonstrates his masterful approach to exploring the tonal ranges of his medium and heightening the sense of loss in the passage of time. The youthful vitality of two children with ruddy faces in Untitled No. 33 contrasts with the bare road (appearing often in his later images) that stretches into the horizon of a vanishing past or, perhaps, an uncertain future. Using his own biography as a point of departure, Hai Bo poignantly evokes the increasing desolation of rural life and the impossibility of ever returning to the place of one's memories.

Food Dehydrator
This item is currently not available.
Additional Information
Food Dehydrator Easily Preserves the Flavors of Summer
- Preserve homegrown produce and farmer's market finds
- Dried foods are easy to make, easy to store
- Buy local, buy in season, buy in bulk and save!
One of the oldest methods of food preservation, drying is the simplest and least time-consuming way to preserve fruits, vegetables and herbs, and it yields easy-to-store, nutrient-dense foods for year-round use. Save money, too, by making your own dried tomatoes, cherries, cranberries, herbs and more — without preservatives or artificial colors. This dehydrator has five stackable, adjustable trays that accommodate a variety of fruits and vegetables, plus one herb tray and two liners for making fruit roll-ups, plus mesh for making jerky. A 300-watt motor provides low, even heat and a fan circulates air for fast, even, efficient drying. Much easier and more reliable than air- or oven-drying. Includes instructions and recipes.
Product Details
- Plastic
- 13-1/4" in diameter x 8" H overall
- 3' power cord
- 300-watt motor
Reviewed by 3 customers
Unfortunately, the dehydrator had one fruit leather liner missing from the box, but I didn't notice that at first. I used it immediately to dry some cherry tomatos, and the motor appeared to stop working after a few hours. Customer service was exemplary, sending me out a new dehyrdrator immediately, and gave me a label by email to print out for free return shipping. The replacement dehydrator came quickly, and had all its parts. I've had no problems whatsoever with the motor, and I've used it several times to dry tomatos. (I had a bumper crop this year.) All in all, it appears to have been a good buy, and I know I've barely skimmed the surface of its potential uses.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
- Compact Size For Storage
- Easy to use and clean
- Quiet operation
- Well constructed
- none
Best Uses
Really nice dehydrator. Stronger construction than others we looked at. Price is a bit higher but worth it. So far used only for drying fruit, which couldn't have come out better tasting.
- Great for herbs
- non yet
Best Uses
- Drying Medicinal Herbs
First one arrived with a crack across the top. It was replaced immediately with no trouble. We dry herbs for medicinal use. Also, making jerky. Works great.

It's August of 2003, and someone tells you that the price of corn will exceed $7.00/bushel within 10 years. Your next response would probably be, "Really, I suppose an increased demand for bacon is going to drive up it's price, and bacon will be worth as much per pound as a ¼" trimmed loin too?"
Much to my amazement, both of those predictions have come true. It obviously causes me to ponder what the next 10 years will hold for the pork industry, or what major trend might emerge that stretches my imagination today.
As I reflect on the changing landscape of our industry, the bacon phenomenon is truly an incredible development. With all the focus on dietary health, and the increased consumer awareness of fat content, I would not have predicted that bacon would be the shining star it is today.
I'm sure many of you have seen the "Bacon – the duct tape of the food industry" chart floating around. It shows the many uses of bacon as it is wrapped around everything from filet mignons to vegetables to Twinkies. According to pork industry statistics, bacon accounts for over 18 percent of pork consumed in the home.
But perhaps the most amazing development is how bacon has exploded as a featured item on restaurant menus: It has doubled in the last few years and appears about three times as often as ham.
Who would have ever believed that there would be not one, but two or three TV shows dedicated to the amazing uses of bacon? I can't think of another product from animal agriculture that has commanded so much attention and focus in such a short period of time.
We now find ourselves in a similar position as the chicken industry when they discovered the marketing power of "wings." They went from trying to breed chickens without wings, to breeding chickens with four wings to meet the demand.
A 200-pound pork carcass yields about 15.5 pounds of cured bacon. If the demand continues to skyrocket, we will need to figure out how to breed more "belly" into our hogs.
The porkbeinspired web site describes bacon as follows: "The cut used to make bacon comes from the side - or belly - of the pig. When it is cured and smoked, it becomes bacon. An abundance of fat gives bacon its sweet flavor and tender crispiness."
"An abundance of fat" – that statement solidifies my belief that "flavor" wins out over "leanness" every time. There might be a lesson here regarding our efforts to make our hogs too lean.
What will the big surprise of the next 10 years? Maybe with our recent attention given to the China market, it might be "pigs feet"!

Heeren, 52, co-owner of Grand Rapids-based wholesaler Heeren Bros Inc.; his wife Becky, who also had worked at the company; daughter Jennifer Heeren; and granddaughter Kamrie Heeren-Dantzler were four of seven victims of a mass murder July 7 in Grand Rapids.
John Wiltjer, president of Grand Rapids-based Top Distributing Co. Inc., was Heeren's second cousin. Heeren Bros. was a customer of Top's, and the two companies often worked together when they shared customers, Wiltjer said.
In the days since Heeren's passing, Wiltjer has received many positive comments about his cousin.
"He was a great guy to work with, and he'll be missed on the market here," he said. "He'd give you the shirt off his back if he needed to."
Dan Mol, president of Grand Rapids-based Mol Produce Co., said that in business, golf and other social activities, Heeren, who was widely known by his nickname Frank, was notable for his "intense" sense of humor.
"He was just a fun guy to be with," he said. "He always made a bad situation tolerable, and made doing business more enjoyable."
Jim Lupa, general manager of Jack's Fruit & Meat Market, a five-store Michigan retailer, did business with Heeren for decades.
Lupa described Heeren as one of the nicest guys he's ever met.
"He was a class act — he thanked you, he was very appreciative for the business," Lupa said. "I don't know anybody who would say anything bad about him."
In a Heeren Bros. news release, the company's chief executive officer, Hal Roy, said Heeren was "incredibly dedicated to our business and to his family."
On July 13, Roy said Heeren Bros. would have further comment on Heeren's life and role at the company the week of July 18.
Services for the four family members are scheduled for July 15 in Grand Rapids.

Went out to the field today and tried out a new champion boss. It is clear purple, domy and 172g. I threw it against 6 similar drivers.
173 ESP Surge
174 Champion Orc
168 Champion Starfire
172 Star Destroyer
174 CFR Wraith
173 ESP Force
The boss and destroyer fly very similar but the boss is noticeably faster and goes farther on mis-throws. The boss is also superior in headwind conditions. Stability is very similar to a destroyer, more stable than a wraith and less stable than the force. The surprise disc of the day was the 168 starfire, which is stable enough to hang with the boss and destroyer on big rips.
The boss is surprisingly controllable and workable, it did great on big anny tosses and S curves beautifully. It also glides very well and doesn't fade out quickly like the force. Overall I'd say its a winner. The rim is super wide but didn't affect my ability to rip it on whichever line I chose. More testing is needed, but I'm thinking I will reach new max distances with the boss. It is also a disc that will make the bag for those long, open drives.
Definitely not a disc to be afraid of unless you can't handle the big rim. It isn't as stable as I thought it would be and flies a long, long way with minimal effort. You can also rip the hell out of it without it flipping all over the place.

Info Center
Physician of the Month August 2012
Dinesh Patel, MDBy: Mari Yang, Supervisor Cytology
Dr. Patel is the epitome of professional excellence; which is obvious in his kind demeanor during patient care, to the courteousness and respect he conveys to his staff. Dr. Patel is deeply admired by his staff for his skills as an exceptional interventional radiologist and for his sincerity and kindness as an individual.
Dr. Patel embraces professionalism and demonstrates integrity in every procedure he performs. Dr. Patel is always prompt, valuing both the patient and staff time. In one recent experience, I recall the end of the day was drawing near and procedures were continually being added to Dr. Patel's already packed workload. There were three difficult procedures scheduled to be performed back to back. Pleasant as always, Dr. Patel worked with the staff to align the work and completed the procedures efficiently without compromising patient care. While many of the techs were left breathless, Dr. Patel was still beaming.
One closer glimpse of Dr. Patel's daily demeanor may be appreciated as Dr. Patel carefully explains his procedures to each patient and kindly responds to any concerns the patients may have with sincerity. I recall many nervous patients who are quickly calmed by Dr. Patel's genuine good nature, eliminating any remaining doubts prior to beginning the procedure. Dr. Patel is attentive to all of his patients. He remains by the bedside during the entire procedure, providing VIP care for all.
On another occasion, I witnessed Dr. Patel take time out of his busy schedule to inquire about the well-being of a staff member. He also made recommendations on how the staff member could cope with her challenges, demonstrating genuine care for her health. These acts of kindness are what characterize Dr. Patel. Dr. Patel's humble and servitude approach are not magnified in one defining experience, but are the norm characteristics his staff have become accustomed to and grow to respect within Dr. Patel.
Although Dr. Patel takes the time to recognize his staff frequently, I would like to in turn, represent his staff to acknowledge our gratitude and pleasure while working with an exceptional radiologist such as Dr. Patel. Dr. Patel truly is an unsung hero amongst the staff, quietly and pleasantly, affecting positive change, one patient at a time.

A 4-1 VICTORY for Matt Rusling's Trowbridge Wanderers Reserves side over strugglers Bratton keeps their Division Two promotion challenge very much alive.
It was actually Bratton who had the better of the earlier exchanges and they took the lead on 20 minutes through Ryan Mead, but they villagers were pegged back almost immediatly when Steve Morris put Joe Walker through and he fired home to square things up.
Wanderers took the lead on 30 minutes after Will Browning rounded the keeper after being played in by Mike Cooksey.
Wanderers increased their lead in the second half when Ben Rogers headed down for Steve Jackson to rifle in for 3-1.
The scoring was completed by Mike Cooksey who got on the end of a Will Bayley cross and head home to seal an important win for Rusling's promotion hopefuls.
Bradford United Reserves 5 Westbury Town 1
WITH their pitch at Culver Close unplayable, Bradford United Reserves went to great lengths to get an alternative pitch just up the road at Poulton playable for the visit of Westbury Town who, despite finishing with nine men following an injury to Jason Gee on 15 minutes which held the game up for 30 minutes and a further injury to Shaun Walker, played their part in a very sporting contest that the home team won 5-1.
Bradford led 1-0 at half time courtesy of a Tim Bruton goal and a second from Bruton doubled the lead early in the second half. Jimmy Meade scored goals three and four with Bradford fifth coming from Nick Gerrish.
Levi Wood's calm finish after rounding the keeper gave Westbury a deserved consolation.
Worton & Cheverell 1 Heytesbury 1
A WEEK after they suffered a 2-0 loss at Heytesbury, Paul Sperring's Worton & Cheverell side made the trip back to Heytesbury Park for the return match having given up home advatage with their own pitch at the Lye unplayable.
Worton may not have got the result they wanted but a 1-1 draw against Kieron Edwards host went some way to making up for their loss a week earlier.
On a bobbly pitch that a Worton player decribed as playing on top of a Lion Bar it was the visitors who took the lead on three minutes through Jake Flower.
Heytesbury weren't behind for long and they drew level on nine minutes via a headed effort from Bradley Edwards and that was how things remained to the final whistle.

Glock was off duty that night when he went to the Scott's Foods store at 4522 Maplecrest Road with wife Le-Ann, daughter Molly and niece Leah to cash a check. That's when he saw a "ratty looking" car parked near the door, the cigarette-puffing driver slouched down in the seat.
Suspecting trouble, Glock entered and noticed a man with several large bulges visible beneath his baseball jacket. Glock displayed his badge and said, "I want to talk to you."
Thomas told Glock to get out of the way, and the two men grabbed each other and rolled out the door and into the parking lot, where Glock's family was in a van 20 feet away. Thomas – 11 years younger and 60 pounds heavier – struck Glock with two of the 10 bottles of whiskey hidden beneath his jacket and grabbed the officer's 9mm automatic pistol.
As the two struggled, Thomas held the Glock to Glock's head, shouted, "I'll fix you!" and fired, with the bullet tearing a crease through Glock's scalp.
"Now I know it's him or me," Glock recalled. So he pulled the gun closer to him to gain control and cried out, "God help me now." Glock was able to grab the pistol and toss it safely away, while Le-Ann stood nearby also invoking divine intervention: "In Jesus' name, I command you to leave my husband alone!"
But Thomas continued the attack, hitting Glock in the head with another bottle before walking to the van and attempting to smash its windows with still another bottle and a parking lot sign anchored in concrete.
So, bleeding profusely, Glock retrieved his weapon and pulled the trigger. But the spent shell had jammed the mechanism, and the gun would not fire.
With the screams of his 16-year-old daughter and 13-year-old niece in his ears, Glock cleared the jam and fired three times. When the man known as "Biggie" because of his size refused to stop – Glock suspected he was wearing a bullet-proof vest, but it was later revealed that he had consumed both alcohol and cocaine — Glock pulled the trigger three more times. And this time Thomas went down, for good.
Following the incident, he said, his family members were comforted by a woman believed to be a Scott's employee. Only after Glock tried to find and thank her did he learn that no employee matched the family's description. Call it mistaken identity if you like, but Glock has another explanation.
"There were three miracles that night," said Glock, who became a Christian in 1974. "I got the gun away from him, he never challenged my wife, and there was that woman. Ask me if I believe in angels."
And so he will talk about prayers answered on "Restoration Road" hosted by Pastor Mitch Kruse. If that name sounds familiar, it should: Kruse's family was famous for its annual classic-car auction in Auburn, but a series of financial and legal problems caused him to seek his own restoration by entering the ministry.
Glock still becomes emotional when remembering that night, but don't mistake tears for remorse.
"Taking a life is horrible. But he made that decision, I didn't," said Glock, who spent four hours in the hospital, returned to work within three weeks and was cleared of any wrongdoing. He did what he did – and would do it again if necessary — to enforce the law and to protect himself and his family.
Even so, the aftermath was not always easy. The girls experienced nightmares; Thomas' family filed an unsuccessful lawsuit. But, ultimately, the ordeal brought Glock's family together and strengthened Glock's faith.
"You can't go through something like that and not be changed in a positive or negative way. God has a miraculous way of making bad things good, and I have a peace that passes all understanding," he said.
And perhaps that's why Glock was in that parking lot: So he could inspire others to endure and overcome their own challenges. Maybe it even explains why a TV show taped before last Thanksgiving is airing only now, as Christians celebrate the ultimate victory over sin and death.

Nikolai Fuchs: Preserving Ecosystems in the Context of Climate Change
Nikolai Fuchs: Preserving Ecosystems in the Context of Climate Change
Hallo, eco-friendly viewers, and welcome to Planet Earth: Our Loving Home. Approximately 80 percent or more of global warming is caused by factory farming and meat consumption and is the most serious issue facing our planet.
The meat production cycle produces massive amounts of methane and other dangerous greenhouse gases and thus causes great damage to the environment.
Some results of climate change that we are currently seeing include rapidly disappearing plant and animal species, frequent natural disasters such as storms, floods and wildfires and serious water shortages.
Today's program features Mr. Nikolai Fuchs of Germany, who currently heads Demeter International's Office Brussels and is the leader of the Agricultural Section at the Goetheanum, Switzerland. Demeter International is a renowned international certifier of organic agriculture.
The Goetheanum is the world headquarters of the anthroposophy movement, a spiritual philosophy based on the teachings of Rudolf Steiner, a 20th century Austrian philosopher.Mr. Fuchs recently gave a talk in Formosa (Taiwan) entitled 『Nature Conservation from the Point of View of Climate Change』 which was sponsored by the spiritual group Universe Love Light. During his visit to Asia he graciously agreed to speak to Supreme Master Television about global warming and its immensely negative influence on our planet.
We will present excerpts from both Mr. Fuchs' lecture and interview so as to give viewers a broad perspective
on his ideas.
Mr. Fuchs begins by discussing global warming's huge impact on animals and how humans can help their fellow beings adapt to changing climatic conditions, such as helping them move to new areas where they may continue to thrive.

Jackson still no clearer on her return from injuryFleta Page
Published: December 20 2012 - 3:00AM
Lauren Jackson is playing down her chances of returning to the WNBL this season, saying joining the Canberra Capitals on court in the remaining rounds will be the best-case scenario.
Doctors finally pinpointed a "massive" tear in Jackson's adductor muscle two weeks ago, which has been causing the pain keeping the Olympian off the basketball court since she returned to Australia in October. But the diagnosis hasn't given any more clarity to her immediate future, and Jackson is unable to put a timeline on her recovery.
"I wish I could, I absolutely wish I could," she said
"I mean best case, I'll be able to play this season, that's sort of what I'm hoping for, but at this point I don't want to give myself any more false hope, or anybody else.
"It's just been one of those things where we've been putting a timeline on it and then been blowing the timeline, there's no point in actually saying this is how long it's going to be, because this has been unpredictable."
Jackson is keeping her fingers crossed that platelet injections in her troubled adductor will be the answer she's been looking for since sustaining the injury during the Opals' Olympic campaign.
"I had blood injections done two weeks ago, so hopefully that reignites the healing process, which would be great, and if it doesn't, we'll have to work out something else.
"It's very frustrating, but I have to get it sorted so I can move on with my career and finish it on a positive note - in a few years."
Jackson has endured months of rehabilitation since the end of the WNBA season, but doctors couldn't pinpoint the problem she always knew was in her leg.
"I think it was just in a really awkward position," she said of the delay in diagnosis.
"People thought it was in my back because it was nerve pain and people thought it was … my hamstring - and part of it is, there's a few different things going on - but we were just looking in the wrong spot, and when we looked in the right spot it was 'ah - there you go.'
"When we saw it, it was like 'ah - wasted five months of my life thank you very much, five months of my career', but anyway."
Adding to her injury woes, Jackson has only been able to watch from the sidelines as her Caps teammates have lost their past six games.
"I think the frustration comes from watching them practise every day - they practise hard and Graffy's a great coach, she's drilling them and sometimes these things happen, sometimes you go through a drought, and that's what's happening at the moment and it's frustrating that I can't help in any way," Jackson said.
"[But] they're not the sort of people who are going to hang their heads, they go out there and they train harder and they want to get better.
"We just need a win and once we get that win the confidence will start building back up on court."

Back when Rudy Sandoval was about thirteen years old, a good friend of his had a brother that was in Amigos Car Club. "He and I used to take off in his brother's Caprice Classic, and we used to cruise Arroyo Seco with him," recalls Rudy. While Lowriders surrounded him when he was coming up, it wasn't until three years ago that Rudy took his plunge to build one himself. "I own a variety of cars including a Barracuda, a Porsche, a '56 Boyd Coddington and few others, but I grew up in the Lowrider scene."
"One of my good friends, Carlos, has been a member of Groupe Car Club for a long time and he helped push me, so I ended up getting in the club," says the proud plaque-flier. When the time came to purchase his first Lowrider, there was no question about the make and model car that Rudy was going to get. "I knew I wanted to build a traditional Lowrider, so I went and got an LTD from my friend Saul, who had already done the '76 front clip swap on it." Once the car was purchased, it was taken apart and basically everything on it was redone. "I didn't want a show car; I wanted something I can drive, slam it on the ground, scrape, and just enjoy it without having to worry too much about it." Rudy also owns a '58 convertible and has also owned '61 and '62 convertibles, but his favorite car by far is the Ford LTD. "To me there is nothing like it, they lay real low and they look like they are a mile long," Rudy says with a smile. Rudy currently has a '76 Ford LTD in the works and if everything goes well, it will be out this summer.
"Thanks go out to Carlos Leos for all the help and advice, and I would like to personally thank my wife, Claire, and my children, Rudy Jr., Rosalie, and Sophia for their support."
