" Type: Sauces "
It's always a great idea to try and save money in your weekly shop, but buying a jar of sauce for as little as 9p when the premium brands charge between £1 and £2, could be seen as a little extreme. With ingredients as appetising as water, tomato puree and onion, you'd be forgiven for feeling a bit sceptical about this sauce.
But fear not. It has taste and it has spice. I related it to a tikka masala sauce as it's certainly like a spicy tomato sauce. I'm used to tikka masalas and kormas, and it's spicier than those, but it's not overly spicy, even for me. It's about right. The first time I tried the sauce I made about a third of the jar and poured it over some chips. It give the chips an extra flavour, a pleasant one I might add, and was probably little different to buying curry sauce from your local chippy for 80p. Only this portion has cost me just three little pennies. The second time I used the rest of the jar up (300g of Sainsbury's basics goodness, nice!) with some vegetables that needed eating up, and a small portion of rice. It was a very cheap meal, but it was actually rather tasty, and I preferred it as a curry rather than as a sauce. If that makes sense.
It's low calorie (164 in half a jar), and very low in saturated fat (0.2g in half a jar), so unlike other sauces that have half of your daily allowance in half of their jars, you don't feel guilty about eating it, and you won't put on the pounds.
It doesn't look very appetising in its standard white and orange packaging, and it doesn't look particularly nice when it's cooking, or even when it's cooked. But it's not about presentation for us everyday people, it's about taste, convenience and price. It tastes nice. It's very easy to cook. And, at 9p, it's hardly a bank breaker.
I think it was on Peazyshop forum where I first heard about the amazing low price of Sainsburys curry sauce. People were saying that it was costing them just 9p for a jar of the stuff. Wow! 9p!!! Of course, I demanded that hubby take me to Sainsburys the very next day so I could stock up on the stuff. After all even if it wasn't great, at 9p I'd be getting something edible and jars for when I did my next lot of preserving too. (Tesco and Asda also both do a cheap curry sauce you see, but they put theirs in a tin! - Now that's fine if you just want the curry sauce, but I keep jars to put jams and things in every year, so this just made so much more sense for me).
When we did visit Sainsburys the next day, they were unfortunately almost out of stock. I did manage to get one jar of this, and also picked up a jar of their value sweet and sour sauce as well. Oh, and they weren't selling them for 9p either, I had to pay a full 14p for mine! I think this may have been because it's a small Sainsburys to be honest, although of course it could be because they'd realised so many people were buying it that they could make some extra profit by putting the price up lol.
The jar is simple - it's a glass jar with a twist off lid. The label on it is the standard white and orange paper label of the Sainsburys basic range, and it lists as you'd expect it to the ingredients and nutritional info. It's a 440g jar so plenty big enough to do a curry for 2 people if you like lots of sauce, and even for 4 people if you don't mind there being not as much sauce (though at the price you might as well splash out for an extra jar I reckon!). It's even relatively healthy too with only 2.5g of fat per 100g.
The sauce is actually very tasty - I know I sound surprised, but to be honest I kind of was. I mean who expects something so cheap to be nice too! The flavour is kind of light and almost fruity tasting. It's spicy but not hot, and the spices are gentle ones not strong ones. - It's not really like a traditional Indian curry sauce, more like a Chinese style curry - the sort you can get in a Chinese Takeaway that has lots of Chicken and onion and sauce but little else. In fact, it's so like this in taste, and so quick to make up that it's sort of stopped us bothering to go to the Chinese if this is what we fancy.
When I cook it up, I roughly chop some onion into large pieces, fry them off lightly, and then add chunks of chicken. I seal the meat (so it's white all over, but only just on the outside, not cooked right through), and then I add the jar of sauce and a little water to rinse the jar out. I add some sultanas because I think that the fruitiness of the sauce lends itself well to a bit of additional fruit, and then I cook it gently for about 20 minutes on the hob. It's just SO easy and quick that it's hardly worth going to the takeaway. (Actually I've even cheated and used cooked chicken left over from a roast dinner, and that works just as well but takes even less time to cook up as it's just really got to heat through!). We like to do oven chips to go with this, it's the same way we like it from the Chinese - with chips. It's not really a traditional Chinese dish I'm sure, but it works and tastes great, and well it's about as cheap as it's possible to make it I reckon.
Overall, this is a very cheap curry sauce that's light and healthy to use, I really like the flavours, and I can't make it from scratch this cheaply so I don't bother trying. Even at 14p instead of 9p I'm so impressed with this, my only fear is that by telling you all about it, there will be another raid on Sainsburys and they'll put the price up again lol.
I have been samplying from sainsbury's basic range , in a bid to save a few pounds .
I have discovered a a bargain , for just 9 pence , I have discovered a jar of the basics range of curry sauce .
This jar is clear and see through so that you can see the contents inside, and a full jar which contains 440grams, is enough for a whole big oven proof dish full of curry.
The jar is easy to open with a screw lid, and contains a really great tasting curry sauce which i think makes for a lovely curry .
I usuelly cut some skinless chicken breasts in to mouthfulls and in to bite size portions .
I then heat two spoons full of oil in to a large frying pan and then add the chicken pieces which i then fry untill cooked well, depending on how you like your chicken cooked i usualy fry mine for aproximately five to ten minutes, and im stirring this around all the while i am cooking this then stir in a few vegtables, and then add the sauce , which has a nice smell to it .
You can smell the spices, It has a really lovely flavour and makes great curry.
I then bring this to the boil , cover and then reduce the heat, and then let it gently simmer for about quarter of a hour, whilst this is cooking I then boil some rice, i prefer plain rice because of all the different varieties of vegtabels i dont think i would prefer to have any other rice with this dish, as i prefer to have a plain one .
The jar .
On the side of the jar they give you a heathy hint , this one states that if you reduce the total amount of fat in your particular diet, especialy saturated fats, then that may help you to maintain a healthy heart" Thats a good hint, and they have those written on the side of the jar .
In this curry sauce of 110 grams this serving will provide you with calories of 71 .
Fat in this jar is 2.8 grams .
Salt at 0.8 grams .
I love the taste that this curry sauce has, and it makes for a really great curry .
You should try this as it is cheap , I am so impressed with the quality and taste that this curry has !!!
Thanks for reading and rating my review
I use this sauce for most of my curry dishes since last year, I discovered it in Sainsburys one day and it was only 10p for a 440g jar, which at the time I thought it was an incredible price for a sauce. I tried it and I found it was perfect and I used it ever since and I have found it to be even cheaper at times for 8p or even less and for that price I just had to stock my cupboards, so I have alot of them at the moment to use.
I just fry a few onions in a saucepan with a little oil and add some chicken, beef, pork or a little minced beef to it and cook it slowly for about 5 to 7 minutes and then I add the sauce and simmer for around 15 minutes stirring occasionally. I add a little bit of curry powder sometimes but it is absolutely fine without it, it is a good thickness sauce and it is I would say quite a mild, sweet sauce.
I make a pan of it and then I add some cooked pasta to it and add vegetables and then I put it in little plastic containers and freeze it and I just take them to work with me on cold days so I have a hot meal and I just heat it in a microwave. When I am in a hurry and have not much time I can just take one from my freezer and use as a meal almost instantly.
It is goes along way for a big family and I sometimes cook chicken and place in an ovenproof dish and pour the sauce over it and cook in the oven for about an hour and it is perfect.
I recommend it to anyone to try this product as it is very good value and for the price I do think if you do not like it , you have not wasted a lot of your pennies.
I rate it a 5 star dooyoo rating.
Try it for yourself and see if it can save you some money.
I've got to say, now and again I like a nice curry, but it is usually purchased via a takeaway.......this equals expensive.
Last week whilst perusing the aisles of Sainsburys, I came across a basic jar of curry, for just six pence. Curious about what a jar of six pence curry would taste like, I popped it in my basket.
After our usual family Sunday lunch of roast Lamb, the following day I re-heated the meat and tipped in the jar of basic curry.
I served the curry with some rice and onion bhajis. Seriously, it was delicious. I was amazed !! Even Hubby agreed that it was cost effective (at six pence-how could it not be?) and very, very tasty.
I highly doubt that after tasting this curry we will be forking out for a takeaway. The sauce was hot and spicy, punctuated by the presence of some sultanas. It is the kind of sauce that could be used with either left-over beef, lamb or chicken, to help spread out the cost of meals.
Delicious and I will definiatley be buying this sauce again.
I do like to make a curry and always buy a jar of Curry sauce, either a Korma or a Tikka Masalla as i do not like spicey things. Some jars can cost alot, i usually pay around £1 but when i was in Sainsburys a Jar of Sainsburys Basic curry sauce was 9p for a standard size jar. I kept ignoring it for a few weeks but after a while i decided its worth a try.
I didnt trust it with a curry at first incase it was disgusting and i had ruined my whole dinner so i tried it at first with some chips. I expected it to be horrible but it was actually quite nice i have since used it in a curry for my main dinner.
The Jar has the standard Sainsburys basics packaging with with the orange stripe and i found it on the bottom shelf with the curry sauce section.
The taste, to me was quite spicy, but for my partner who prefers spicy things tells me it wasnt. That must mean its in the middle for spice. I dont like spicy things but do like this. The taste to me was also quite fruity. When i was growing up my mum used to make her own curries and it tasted exactely the same. I added some apple and sultannas to the chicken curry with this sauce and it tasted brilliant!
If you havent tried this and want a decription. If you have ever had curry sauce from the chip shop i found it tasted like that :)
A good way of telling if a product is any good or not is if you buy it again or not. I have bought it again. Plus it is only 9p!
You would think with most foods that they wouldn't taste that great if a jar of it was only 9p. Sainsburys basics curry sauce attempts to prove this wrong. I'm not saying that it's the most disgusting tasting thing in the world, it is definitely edible and enjoyable. I would still definitely choose other curries over this one though, and I'm going to tell you why.
To start with, the appearance of the curry, it is a very deep yellow, nearly mustard colored, which isn't the most appetizing of things. It also looks very watery, this may be to some peoples preferences, but myself, I like a nice thick curry sauce. It's not hard to miss that this sauce doesn't have an awful lot in it, like veggies and the sort, as when you pour it into the pan it is just a trickle of the yellow mustard covering your ingredients.
The taste of the curry isn't too bad, its very mild, but still has enough kick to it. It does smell rather good which is always a bonus when cooking. I would definitely recommend adding some additional spices and herbs to make this a more enjoyable meal. A well as some veggies to make it a bit more interesting in both texture and flavor.
For 9p you really can't go wrong with this sauce, it's just in need of a bit of additional tender loving care to bump it up a bit. So for a nice cheap easy meal this is what you need.
I bought a jar of this curry sauce in Sainsbury's for just 9 pence last week. I have previously tried the Tesco Value one and found it to taste fine, so I thought that I would give this one a try, too. As it is so cheap, it wouldn't matter too much if it wasn't very nice, and I planned to use it as a base for my curry, with other spices added to it.
The jar contains 440g of curry sauce, and the label has the Sainsbury's Basics logo, which says that it is a 'simpler selection, but the spice is right'. The sauce is a brown/orange colour, and has the appearance of a curry sauce that you might get at the chip shop. The taste is fairly mild, but this is fine, as you can have it mild, if that is what you prefer, or make it hotter by adding more spices and chilli. I made a vegetable curry, with lots of onions, garlic, sweet potatoes, peas, potatoes and a vegetable stock cube. I then added water and the jar of curry sauce, as well as some of my husband's home-made spice mix. It turned out very well, and the sweet potatoes and the curry sauce went together very well, as the sauce is quite sweet, due to it containing sultanas.
A quarter jar of the curry sauce contains -
0.8g protein
10.7g carbohydrate
2.8g fat
1.0g fibre
0.8g salt
It is low in fat and calories, and when served with vegetables, is a healthy meal. I will definitely be buying this again, as it is a good product, that can be served mild, or spiced up to make it hotter, and it is excellent value, at only 9p per jar.
Allergy advice - contains milk, mustard and sulphites. Not suitable for nut or sesame allergy sufferers, due to methods used in the manufacture of the product.
I had to do a double take when I noticed this was priced at just 4 pence per 440g jar! I bought one to try, thinking it would probably not be very nice given the tiny price, but at that price it was worth a go.
The consistency of the sauce reminds me of traditional chip shop style curry sauce, that you buy to dip chips in. However I fried some chicken and added onions, peppers, mushrooms, before adding this sauce. It easily makes enough to feed a family of four, which is incredible value for money.
It is full of flavour and really tasty. Personally, I found it a tad on the spicy side, so I usually add a little yoghurt or coconut milk to calm it down, and would definitely recommend doing this if you are serving it to children. Having said that, my partner thought it was perfect as it was, so it really comes down to your own personal preference (I am a wimp and only do kormas!!)
This curry sauce has now become a regular on our shopping list, and it does seem to vary in heat from week to week- I guess it must vary between batches. However for 4 pence you can't really go wrong. Give it a try- I think you'll be impressed with the quality of this product.
I love to make myself a curry though I wouldn't know where to start from scratch so recently I've been purchasing the odd curry sauce mix/jar etx along with piece of chicken and an onion and when I saw this at 4p a jar I couldn't believe it was so cheap I had to try one out! lol.
The Packaging:
440g roundish glass jar with a white screw on/off lid to the top of it and it has a white label that goes around it's main 'body' On the front of that all in orange and white writing I'm told it is Sainsbury's 'Basics' Curry Sauce 'Simpler selection, but the spice is right', there is a scribble of what I think is meant to be a pile of spice, there is an at a glance nutritional chart on there and I'm told that it contains less than 3% fat. Other information on the jar gives me a full nutritional run-down, ingredients and allergy advice is listed, I'm given a recipe idea and contact details for Sainsbury's are given. It's a cheap looking jar but informative enough,
Recipe Idea On The Back Of The Jar:
Cut 240g skinless, boneless chicken breasts into bit size pieces.
Heat 2x 15ml spoons of oil in a saucepan, add the chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently.
Stir in the sauce, bring to the boil, cover than reduce the heat and simmer gently for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Me And The Sauce:
Well it's up to you you use this sauce. You can use whatever meats, vegetables or meat substitutes as you like of course though no where on this jar does it tell me its suitable for Vegetarians so I feel like I must point that out!
All you do really is as the recipe suggestion says. Fry off whatever ingredients your using and then add the sauce and let it simmer! It couldn't be simpler and even I can do it!
So the sauce it light brown in colour, not too thick but not drippy either but it does pour out of the jar with the ease. It has a sweet smell of sultanas to along with a hint of garlic and general spices and over-all it smells rather pleasant but not too rich.
Taste wise well it's ok really. It's quite mild in flavour and it is a smooth sauce. It doesn't melt to runny like water and coats ingredients very well and the longer you simmer it for the more it tends to thicken up a bit. It tastes like a curry sauce! It is rather sweet but naturally so and has a nice blend of spices to it and not too much garlic. Although the majority of the sauce is smooth it does have a few sultanas in it (not many though) which really do give this in part a light, sweet fruity taste.
It's nicely seasoned and does have a slight kick of chilli to it which goes well with the sweetness!
For me this is the base of a curry. Since buying my first jar and using it as it came I have been quite experimental and long gone are the days of simply chopping up an onion and some chicken! Now I add my own garlic, chilli's, mushrooms, fresh coriander to it all as well!
On it's own its ok but as a base sauce I think this is really great! Not too oily or dried, its well blended and if your not overly keen on things about it you can correct it! So as an example if it's a bit too sweet add more chilli to counteract that with and things like that. I think this is really work a try and it's really economical too!
Allergy Advice:
Milk, mustard & sulphites
Not suitable for nut or sesame sufferers due to the methods used in the manufacture of this product.

In what was a nationally watched race, Dublin City Councilman and Alameda County prosecutor Eric Swalwell ended the Congressional career of longtime incumbent Pete Stark by winning the 15th Congressional District race.
If you followed the campaign, you saw Swalwell acting like the Energizer Bunny, holding scores of meetings in homes and businesses throughout the district — seemingly on a daily basis — while Stark was noticeably absent from the local area.
Swalwell recognizes that his is a meteoric rise in politics. To go from being a City Council member to a member of Congress just does not happen every day.
Swalwell told me that the next few weeks, which includes an intense two-week orientation for new members of Congress, will be "like drinking from a fire hose" but that he is very excited to take it on.
"My first goal is to make sure we deliver responsive constituent services while also getting to work to support the policies we promoted on the campaign trail," he says.
Swalwell considers himself more of a moderate Democrat, which given the currently wide divide between the GOP and the Dems, might be advantageous for actually seeing Congress getting work done.
Regardless, Swalwell says he knows from whence he came and promises to keep his hometown — and the rest of the district — well in mind as he takes on his new role.
"I'll never forget Dublin, where I was raised. The people of Dublin deserve a representative who will show up and work hard to enable policies that create new, local jobs while making sure we have an education system that prepares our children to compete in this changing, global economy."
BEST Buddies: Dublin High garnered some national news coverage a couple of years ago when the student body selected Rachel Cooperstein, a student and member of the cheer squad with Down syndrome, as their homecoming queen. A few skeptics at the time labeled it as a one-time event by students who would normally bully an individual such as Rachel.
It turns out the school is receiving praise for its ongoing attitude of inclusiveness, including from Susan Houghton, executive director of the Ohlone College Foundation, and the parent of Robby, a special-needs student at the school.
"Robby is a moderate functioning autistic. He's not going to seek out someone to ask if they'll be his friend but will react positively if someone comes up to him and asks him to hang out."
Those who attended Dublin High football games last year might remember the evening when Robby served as the drum major while leading the band onto the field. That gesture, says Houghton, was both hugely important for her son and completely in character for Dublin High.
"I've seen changes to Robby when a student tries to reach out directly. It started last year when band students started seeing him on campus and said 'hi' to him. He then started going to band fundraisers and pasta nights because he felt like he had a relationship," Houghton said.
Most recently, the school has begun a program called "Best Buddies," which allows special-needs kids to have another student to help them feel more a part of the school and much less isolated.
The brainchild of a DHS Leadership class student, the "Best Buddies" get together a couple of times a week for lunch, text one another and generally help to ensure that the special-needs student feels a part of the student body.
"This (Best Buddies) program is just one example of how great Dublin High School is with both the students and administration when it comes to special-needs children."
Robby, who is 20, will leaving Dublin High's friendly confines after this year. Susan Houghton's current task is to find a program and setting that can help Robby become even more independent and build on the social skills and confidence that her son received while at Dublin High.
Dublin Arsenal: A quick note of kudos to the Dublin Arsenal U10 "Camo Kids" soccer team, which competed in the 14th Annual Halloween "Kick or Treat" classic in Dublin.
The kids picked the nickname as a result of their relationship with former U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Andy Bowen, who helped teach the kids some real-life lessons and also applied a little camouflage face paint before their match.

Air Pollution Tied to Kidney Disease
September 21, 2017,
Hemolytic crisis is the rapid destruction of large numbers of red blood cells (hemolysis). The destruction occurs much faster than the body can produce new red blood cells.
Hemolysis - acute
During a hemolytic crisis the body cannot make enough red blood cells to replace those that are destroyed.
This causes acute and often severe anemia.
The part of red blood cells that carries oxygen (hemoglobin) is released into the bloodstream, which can lead to kidney damage.
Causes of hemolysis include:
Call your doctor or nurse if you have:
Emergency treatment may be necessary. This may include a hospital stay, oxygen, blood transfusions, and other treatments.
When your condition is stable, your doctor or nurse will perform a physical examination and ask questions about your medical history and symptoms. The physical exam may occasionally show swelling of the spleen (splenomegaly).
Tests that may be done include:

Dynamic vs. Static Stretching
—Jed Beers | Salt Lake City, UT
A lot of sports research is compiled for activities that bear little resemblance to climbing. In rowing, cycling or power-lifting, for example, there is less need for flexibility—it is all about raw power output, and anything that compromises power should be questioned. But climbing is much more about skill, co-ordination and the ability to express power in different ways. Put simply, high steps and wide stems are facilitated by static stretching. Minimize the amount of static stretching for the arms, neck and shoulders. For example, stretch each muscle group once or twice and don't hold the stretches for too long (eight to 10 seconds). Different bodies will respond in different ways and it is important to experiment, and to see what works best for you.
Before climbing use a combination of static and dynamic exercises for your legs. Prioritize dynamic exercises (finger clenches and shoulder circles) for your upper body with a minimal amount of static stretching. Keep in mind that building the intensity of the climbing gradually over the day is far more important for injury-prevention and warming up than stretching.

Have you heard it takes a village to raise a child? Well, it often takes many folks from a community to save a dog. Early this month someone saw a dog in trouble and they didn't just walk away. The dog's owner was roughing up the dog and calling it training. An animal-loving person saw what was happening and stepped in to stop the owner from harming the dog.
County Animal Care and Control officers were able to take custody of the dog, now named Warren, and get him to the safety of the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter. The first few days were difficult and confusing to this young-adult dog. He soon learned that he would be fed and cared for, and that volunteers would take him for walks and bring toys for him to play with.
Warren is a 7-month-old, white and tan pit bull mix, with a big brain ready to learn all about being the best dog he can be. He will be a real treasure of a canine companion to someone who understands how smart and eager Warren is and who will invest the time in training and learning with him. One of our shelter volunteers says of him, "Awesome ... smart, responsive, attentive, handsome!" We think she got that just right!
He is a bundle of happy energy, just looking for the right direction. Warren has an athlete's build and a young explorer's mind -- quick and bright through and through. He is still a goofy teenager in some ways and has a ways to go yet to mature into a fine canine citizen. Attending a six-week basic-training class together is wonderful for bonding with a new dog, too! We offer a list of local positive-reinforcement trainers and a "welcome home" handbook to all of our dog adopters. If you are looking for a lost pet or are interested in adopting, becoming a volunteer or fostering, visit the shelter or go online to www.scanimalshelter.org.
The Santa Cruz shelter, 2200 Seventh Ave., is open noon to 7 p.m. Tuesday-Friday and noon to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. The Watsonville shelter, 580 Airport Blvd., is open 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday and closed noon to 1 p.m. for lunch. Call 454-7303, ext. 0, for more information.

Despite Stringent Antismoking Laws, L.A. Residents and Visitors Still Have Plenty of Places To Enjoy a Fine Cigar
As the festivities drew to a close, I left the downstairs function rooms and took an escalator up to the lobby, ascending, to my amusement, into a swirling miasma of cigar smoke. There, several dozen contented gentlemen and ladies were openly--and legally--enjoying their stogies, along with adult beverages, in the lobby bar, without a sign or regulator in sight. (Areas of hotel lobbies, bars and clubs are currently exempt from the new law.)
Such are the contradictions one finds in Southern California, where a sweeping no-smoking regulation would seem to have utterly outlawed enjoyment of cigars--only it hasn't.
L.A. is smokin'. Just try to get a last-minute reservation at Hamilton's, the cigar bar next to the Wine Merchant of Beverly Hills. Or drive down the coast, pull into the Ritz-Carlton Marina del Rey and follow the faint scent of Dominican leaf to the hotel's Library bar, where local cigar lovers like to hold court. On a warm summer night, reserve an outdoor table at Schatzi on Main in Santa Monica and light up with impunity. If anybody beefs, tell 'em Ah-nold (as in Schwarzenegger, who owns the joint) said it was OK.
The long arm of the law notwithstanding, entrepreneurs in the L.A. hospitality industry have figured out a number of legal ways to accommodate cigar smoking patrons. One method is to put dining tables outdoors. In Southern California, dining alfresco is an option many months of the year. Just remember it's not tropical here and evening temperatures often dip down to chilly levels. Although most outdoor dining areas in L.A. are protected or semi-protected by wind breaks, and most also have propane heaters, a jacket or wrap is often needed.
Following is a sampling of some of the most popular places in the Los Angeles area to enjoy a fine cigar, ranging from tobacconists to nightclubs and private clubs, to hotel and restaurant bars. Many additional L.A.-area restaurant, hotel and club bars, as well as tobacconists, accommodate cigar smokers, so it's best to call and check, particularly since an establishment's cigar policy can depend on who's on duty.
A final, sobering note: All this could change as of Jan. 1. Unless other preemptive legislation passes, the new antismoking law's other shoe will drop on New Year's Day, banning smoking in California bars.

Acquire Brooks from Rochester Rattlers for Brian Vetter
Annapolis, MD– The Chesapeake Bayhawks of Major League Lacrosse (MLL) announced that they have acquired All-Star midfielder
Steven Brooks from the Rochester Rattlers according to Bayhawks General Manager
Spencer Ford. In exchange, Rochester received 3-year veteran midfielder Brian Vetter.
Brooks began his MLL career with the former Chicago Machine, now the Rochester Rattlers, in 2008 where he tallied 35 points with 23 goals, 3 two-point goals, and 9 assists. In his 2 years with the Machine, Brooks played in 15 games and had a career total of 44 points and 26 ground balls. In the 2008 MLL All-Star Game, Brooks was part of the winning Western Conference Team and added a total of 4 points.
"Steven Brooks has made a great name for himself in the lacrosse world as an unbelievable two-way midfielder who can shoot the lights out on the offensive end as well as shut down the opponent's top midfielder," Ford stated. "We feel the addition of Steven will give us the two best midfield units in the league and we are very excited to see Steven in a Bayhawks jersey in 2011. We look to build our roster with the right players based on commitment, character and leadership and Stephen brings all of those and more."
Brooks came to the MLL after an outstanding collegiate career at Syracuse, where he was a recipient of the Lt. Donald C. MacLaughlin, Jr. Award as the nation's top midfielder and also named to the USILA All-America First Team in 2008.
Ford added,
"We would like to wish Brian Vetter nothing but the best. He contributed to our organization both on and off the field, which helped us reach our goal of winning the 2010 MLL Championship. He will bring great leadership and value to the Rattlers through his work ethic and attitude."
The 2011 Chesapeake Bayhawks season kicks off on Saturday, May 14
th when they take on Brooks' former team, the Rochester Rattlers at home. Season highlights include the 2011 MLL All-Star Game in Boston, MA on July 9, 2011 and the MLL Championship Weekend which will be held at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis, MD on August 27

Immune Responses To Flu Vaccine Are Diminished In Lupus Patients
Patients with the autoimmune disease systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have an increased risk of infection, due to both disturbances in their immune responses and treatment with immunosuppressive drugs. Because morbidity and mortality related to influenza are increased in immunocompromised patients, it is recommended that patients with SLE get annual flu shots, which are safe and do not increase disease activity. Both antibody and cell-mediated responses are involved in the immune response to influenza; in SLE, antibody responses to the vaccine are diminished, but it is not known if the same effect is seen in cell-mediated responses. A new study was the first to examine cell-mediated responses in SLE patients prior to and following influenza vaccination. The study was published in the August issue of Arthritis & Rheumatism.

Photo gallery: Coach Shot In San Bernardino
SAN BERNARDINO - Eisenhower High School basketball coach Steve Johnson planned to drive from the north end of town to Costco on the south end to buy gas, use the restroom and buy a hot dog Monday night.
But when he realized he had to use the restroom more urgently than he initially thought, he made a pit stop at Seccombe Lake Park - a move that proved to be a mistake.
In the five minutes he was there, an armed robber approached him and shot him several times, police said.
"He didn't quite make it to the restrooms," said San Bernardino police Sgt. Gary Robertson. "He did his business and then walked back to his car. While he was sitting in his car, he was confronted by the armed suspect," Robertson said.
The gunman demanded the 47-year-old Yucaipa man's wallet. When Johnson said he didn't have it, the gunman opened fire.
Johnson remained hospitalized in fair condition Wednesday at Loma Linda University Medical Center.
He was conscious and his vital signs were stable, said Herbert Atienza, spokesman for Loma Linda University Medical Center.
"It's not a life-threatening situation," Atienza said.
Police visited the popular coach Wednesday to re-interview him.
"He's talking, he's coherent," Robertson said. "We were able to carry on a meaningful dialogue with him."
But so far, they have not been able to find any witnesses to the shooting. "We asked him, `Are you sure that's the reason you went there?' And he stayed to his story, that he went there to use the facilities," Robertson said.
Johnson told police during the interview that he parked on the north side of the park off Seventh Street shortly before 8 p.m.
He intended to use the restroom at the park, but couldn't make it there in time. He ended up urinating near a tree, and returned to his car, Robertson said.
While tuning his radio, a man approached his vehicle, opened the front passenger door and demanded Johnson's wallet.
Johnson said the encounter lasted two to three minutes. Johnson said he initially just saw the gunman, but told investigators he saw two other men fleeing with the shooter through the park after the shooting.
Because the incident happened so quickly, Johnson was unable to provide enough detail for police to produce a composite sketch of the shooter.
"He saw him just for a split second," Robertson said. "It was in a darkened area. He looked like a light-skinned black male, maybe in his 20s."
Johnson also told detectives that he saw other people at the park near the baseball field at the time of the shooting, but officers have not been able to find them.
The shooting shook the Rialto public school community, where the coach was inducted into the Rialto Sports Hall of Fame in 2011. He also was chosen as the The Sun's and Inland Valley Daily Bulletin's Coach of the Year in 2009 and 2010.
His strong seasons have underpinned his accolades.
Eisenhower won California's Division II state title in 2009 with a record of 32-3 - the first San Bernardino County boys basketball team ever to reach a state title game.
The district pledged on Wednesday to help police get to the bottom of what happened Monday.
"The district will cooperate with the San Bernardino Police Department as they investigate this case," district spokeswoman Syeda Jafri said. "We hope that those who attacked this high-profile and successful veteran coach and teacher will be brought to justice."
Assemblywoman Cheryl R. Brown, D-San Bernardino, issued the following statement about the incident:
"I am saddened and shocked by the attempted robbery and senseless shooting of Eisenhower Coach Steve Johnson. We, as a society, cannot remain inactive to the consistent increase in violence in our country. We must all engage in putting a stop to the violence in our communities. This can only happen when a community decides to do something to create an atmosphere of safety. Laws and regulations alone cannot accomplish it. During my tenure, I will do everything I can to promote a safe environment that advocates resolving our differences, issues and problems by nonviolent means."

Outlook Calendar Tip of the Week
Contributed by Tony Tabone on 10/06/13
Responding to Meeting Invitations
When you receive a meeting-related message that requires a response, such as a meeting invitation, you have the option to Accept, Tentatively Accept, or Decline the invitation.
Each of these response options gives you the ability to decide whether or not your response will be sent to the organizer. If you choose "Do not send a response," the meeting organizer does not receive any notice of your intention to attend or not. ITS recommends that you always choose to send a response when accepting or declining a meeting so that the meeting organizer has an accurate representation of the meeting attendance.
Every week, ITS provides a tip or trick for using the Outlook Calendar. Training on Outlook Calendar is available in the Technology Learning Center (Friends Hall 101). To see the schedule and register for training, click here.
If your department or group is interested in a closed-session workshop on Outlook Calendar, please send your request to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Individuals with disabilities requiring accommodations should contact Tony Tabone at firstname.lastname@example.com or (607) 274-1045. We ask that requests for accommodations be made as soon as possible.

A jacket's waterproof rating tells you how well its fabric, membrane, and seam construction protect you from wet weather. Look for a higher waterproof rating (15k+) if you spend lots of time in stormy weather or in a wet climate like the Pacific Northwest.
Heavily insulated jackets are inherently warm and can be worn over minimal layering. Jackets without insulation require extra mid layers or an insulation layer, but they allow you the flexibility to dress down on warmer days.
Generally, most snowboarders want a powder skirt to keep the snow out and venting to help them stay cool. A jacket designed for resorts will have features focused on comfort or convenience whereas a jacket designed for the minimalist or backcountry snowboarder will keep things simple to save weight.
Your snowboard jacket should keep you dry when you're riding wet, sloppy snow, breathe enough that you don't sweat hard when you're riding hard, and be warm enough that you don't freeze on the way up the lift for another lap. In general, snowboard jackets tend to feature a more relaxed fit, a longer cut, and edgier style than traditional ski jackets.

If I exclude the title like this:-
I presume that a screen reader for a blind person will read out "Contents", is that correct?
If I include title like this:-
all browsers show a tooltip which I find ugly, but does a screen reader read out both "Contents" and "Main contents of this website"? How can I include extra information for a disabled person without showing the ugly tooltip?
Is the best way to avoid using title but to increase the description between the and tags? That is also ugly because you get more words with the hover style which may be a different color and underlined.
There was a discussion here http://forums.site-r...anchor-carries/ where people couldn't make up their minds whether it is a good idea to have the title or not and some were thinking of SEO while others were thinking of accessibility.

Werth 'feeling better' about left wrist
VIERA, Fla. -- Nationals outfielder Jayson Werth said his left wrist is getting stronger, but he doesn't know if his power is back. He said the biggest test will begin Wednesday, when the Nationals play a road game against the Marlins in Jupiter, Fla.
Werth, who is slated to hit second in the lineup, broke his left wrist last April while trying to make a sliding catch off the bat of Phillies infielder Placido Polanco at Nationals Park. After he returned to action in August, Werth hit just two home runs, not including the game-winning home run in Game 4 of the National League Division Series against the Cardinals.
"I need to test it really well. I need to play, I need to play every day, a couple of times in a row," Werth said. "I'm feeling better about it. It's coming along. I don't know for sure where it's at.
Entering Wednesday's action, Werth is 8-for-32 (.250) with a home run and three RBIs.

A man who wants to offer boat tours of the Squamscott River wants town officials to amend current rules to allow him to do it.
Keith Noyes recently wrote a letter to town officials asking to use the town dock near Swasey Parkway to load and unload passengers into a pontoon boat that would offer tours of the Squamscott River and Great Bay Estuary.
Currently, the dock cannot be used for commercial operations like these.
"The town dock has been very much underutilized and this ... would be a good thing for the town," Noyes wrote, adding he's spoken with "a number" or residents that would like to see the operation come to fruition.
Noyes said he has a mooring in Exeter from which he could anchor the boat, which would carry a maximum of eight people at a time. He would call his business "Great Bay Tours & Charters."
Selectmen will review the request at their meeting Monday night and likely act on the request at a future meeting.
Noyes' letter can be found to the right under "PHOTOS."http://exeter.patch.com/articles/new-boat-tour-business-for-exeter#c

Simplicity with USB monitor
Set yourself free with the new Philips USB monitor. The USB 2.0 ports on your laptop delivers digital video and power to your monitor via a single cable connection! See all benefits
White LED's are solid state devices which light up to full, consistent brightness faster saving startup time. LED's are free from mercury content which allows for eco-friendly recycling and disposal process. LED's allow for better dimming control of LCD backlight, resulting in super high contrast ratio. It also gives superior color reproduction thanks to consistent brightness across the screen.
Philips USB monitor is capable of displaying images and drawing power directly from your laptop USB ports with a single USB cable. No extra power or video cables are required resulting in a simple, single cable, extra low power connection between your laptop and monitor.
The USB monitor uses special low-power LED backlight, allowing it to simply draw power from USB ports of your laptop. It consumes approximately 9 watts, resulting in approximately 50% lower power consumption than a equivalent standard monitor.
The Compact Ergo Base is a 'people friendly' Philips monitor base that tilts, swivels and is height adjustable so each user can position the monitor for maximum viewing comfort and efficiency.
Philips monitors with LED backlighting are free of Mercury content, one of the most toxic natural substances, which affects humans and animals. This reduces the environmental impact of the display throughout its life-cycle, from manufacturing to disposal.
Screen tilt and swivel is a mechanism built into the base permits the monitor to swivel and tilt backward or forward.

Aybar takes part in pregame drills, eyes return from DL
ANAHEIM -- Angels shortstop Erick Aybar ran on the field for the first time on Monday and is eyeing a return to the lineup as early as Thursday, the first day he's eligible to come off the disabled list.
"We're going to keep working," said Aybar, out since April 9 with a left heel contusion. "The bruise is going to be there. I have to try to play through it. Any time you step, it's going to be bothering you. But the good thing is I ran today."
Aybar, reduced to aqua therapy in Arizona early last week, did some wind sprints and agility drills prior to the start of a three-game series against the Rangers at Angel Stadium.
The heel, he said, is "still bothering me a little bit," but it's manageable. One thing the switch-hitter still can't do is bat from the right side because the injury is on his landing foot. But he's just fine from the left side of the plate, and the Angels will face only right-handed starters in their upcoming four-game series in Seattle.
Now that Mike Trout bats second, Aybar figures to lead off upon returning to the lineup -- though Peter Bourjos has performed well there of late.
More than anything, he's just antsy to return.
"I don't like to sit," Aybar said. "I want to help my team win."

Obama Care started off at 2,800 pages when passed. It is now approaching 20,000 pages. When it reaches full implementation in 2016, and you are fined $700 for not participatiing in the system, plus all of the new taxes, it will sink under its' own weight. When people wake up and see its true cost, which has almost tripled to $2.4 trillion from $900 billion in three years and will rise to who knows where. The truism of government programs is it will cost more and not do what it's supposed to do. Just ask people who's insurance premiums have gone up $2,400, not down $2,400, like the President said and this is just the tip of the iceberg.

I guess such things are difficult to understand. A sociaty which has strict orders, simply values of respect and clear autorities is not easy to understand for "modern" man. "A Good Buddhist or simply an authoritarian leader" may seem to be controversy but actually both has to come together incl. that what was pointed out by the quote of Ajahn Sumedho below.
Even good actions of authoritarian leader seem to create easy aversion, but that is lesser a fact of how it/they really is/are but a reaction out of traumata. Today there is much believe in a kind of Waldorf-Leadership, which is for sure great (if the karmic precondition are present) but in no way a general solution.

"Redundancy" is a four-letter word in the produce industry, where food safety audits are concerned.
A shipper may have several food safety audits each year, each varying according to the dictates of a particular customer.
A question arises: Why not have one comprehensive audit?
There are no simple answers, said Ray Gilmer, vice president of communications with the Washington, D.C.-based United Fresh Produce Association.
"One theory might be in the absence of modern food-safety regulations, these private standards have been borne out of necessity," he said.
Federal food-safety rules may clear up the matter, he said.
"It might be, once these new rules take effect and become law of the land, the need of these separate standards might be diminished," he said.
That's the industry's hope, he said.
"These private audits have cropped up from individual buyers in an effort to ensure their product is safe, as well as differentiate their product from their competitors' products," he said.
When rules from the Food and Drug Administration are finalized, the confusion could clear up, Gilmer said.
"But we won't know for sure until it happens," he said.
It may be that the new rules may come up with at least a partial solution, said Mary Ostlund, marketing director with Homestead, Fla.-based Brooks Tropicals LLC.
"Perhaps the overlap can be reduced in the future with the FDA accepting independent audits with occasional overviews of third-party audits," she said.
Multiple audits are a nagging issue, said Don Edgar, operations manager with Princeton, Fla.-based grower-shipper-packer New Limeco LLC.
"It's probably not something that industry right about now is prepared to manage," he said.
Redundancy knows no national boundaries, said Richard Lee, compliance coordinator with the Ontario Greenhouse Vegetable Growers Association in Leamington.
Multiple audits aren't going away anytime soon, he said.
"You'll find a lot of different retailers require different types of audits. There are so many class grades and varieties of produce, it makes it difficult to have one set of auditing principles," Edgar said.
The association has made some headway in having audits that are designed to fit greenhouse production, as opposed to open-field practices, Lee said.
"CanadaGAP is currently working on different audit schemes that apply to greenhouse, but it's really driven by our customer base — what they require and what they request," he said.
Sally Blackman, manager of food safety & nutrition with the Canadian Produce Marketing Association, agreed.
"Certainly that's what we're hoping for, as you add much acceptance by harmonizing," she said.
Hank Giclas, senior vice president of strategic planning, science and technology, for Irvine, Calif.-based Western Growers, described a one-size-fits-all comprehensive audit as the "holy grail" of the industry.
"What we have seen in our collective examination of these audit programs is that 90-plus percent of them are the same, so a reasonable person would assume we could get to a standardized audit issue," he said.

Since 2007's release of the iPhone, Apple has been subjected to rumors that the company may consider a takeover of the BlackBerry smartphone line. With each passing year, as BlackBerry loses more of its market share, rumors have escalated that the smartphone line is ripe for an acquisition.
In recent weeks, as excitement builds for the launch of RIM's new BlackBerry 10 product line, talk of acquisition has quieted... until today. But this time around, BlackBerry is behind the renewed speculation about RIM's future plans.
Research in Motion will look into strategic alliances with other technology companies once it has launched its new BlackBerry 10 models, its chief executive told a German newspaper.
While shares of RIM have bounced on Wall Street this month and talk of a serious BlackBerry comeback s underway, few believe that BlackBerry will ever reach its former heights again. As a result, RIM's biggest aim may be to help the brand regain enough lost momentum to drive the bidding war for BlackBerry a little higher than it might otherwise have been.

Amber Tamblyn
Having grown up playing Emily Quartermaine on General Hospital from 1995 to 2001, Amber Tamblyn -- daughter of Russ Tamblyn -- now tackles the title role on CBS's hit drama, Joan of Arcadia.
AppealAmber Tamblyn's wholesome looks and attractive body make for a sexy combination. Yet the overall innocence that Amber conveys is nicely balanced by her self-assurance and poise; and she still has a sexy side to her that may not come across in the roles she has played to date.
Plus, her assertiveness and wide-ranging interests only add to Amber's appeal. The creative energy that Amber exudes, and her dedication to artistic and intellectual pursuits, are the extra dimension that set her apart from other pretty actresses. If "sexy" is the combination of beauty and depth, then Amber Tamblyn's certainly got it.
SuccessMerely in her early 20s, and Amber Tamblyn has already become a showbiz veteran. Starting as a child actress, she spent her teen years on General Hospital, yet was able to get through both "soap opera" life and adolescence with her career intact -- something that's easier said than done. She has even had success with her hobbies, getting her poetry published in West Coast journals.
Amber has been famous for quite a while; fans of General Hospital watched her grow up during her six-year stint on that soap opera. But the daytime television audience was only the first step -- now Amber is watched by millions each week on Joan of Arcadia, and her success in prime time has opened the doors for more film appearances too. Audiences may have first noticed her in 2002's horror film, The Ring, which starred Naomi Watts, and in 2005, she's set to star in the adventure comedy The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.
Amber Tamblyn BiographyAmber Rose Tamblyn was born on May 14, 1983, in Santa Monica, California. Her father, Russ, is a musical actor (noted for West Side Story and Seven Brides for Seven Brothers) and her mother, Bonnie, is a singer and artist; it was only natural that Amber would have taken to show business. Amber attended an elementary school for the arts in Southern California, where she performed in a total of 13 plays between kindergarten and eighth grade.
Amber's professional break came in the fourth grade, when she was portraying the irrepressible Pippi Longstocking in a school play. A long-time family friend and agent caught Amber's performance, and urged Russ Tamblyn to encourage his daughter's talent. At first the seasoned actor was wary, knowing the pitfalls of the profession; but he relented and the 9-year-old Amber went on her first auditions.

It soon became clear that there was no need to worry. In a matter of months, Amber landed her first roles, appearing in the movies Live Nude Girls (1995), Rebellious (1995) and Johnny Mysto: Boy Wizard (1996). In the fall of 1994, Amber was cast to play a short-term role on the long-running soap opera General Hospital. But the role of Emily Quartermaine soon became more prominent, and Amber would end up in over 600 episodes over a six-year period. In 1999, Amber received the Hollywood Reporter's YoungStar Award for Best Young Actress in a Daytime TV Program.
However, the demanding schedule of General Hospital meant that Amber had to pass on other promising roles. As a result, she left the show when her contract was up in the spring of 2001. She auditioned with a vengeance, and landed multiple guest appearances between 2001 and 2003, on such television shows as Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Boston Public, The Twilight Zone, CSI: Miami, and Without a Trace; she also appeared in the hit horror movie, The Ring (2002).
amber tamblyn is joan of arcadia
Amber Tamblyn became a true star in 2003, when she was cast in the title role in CBS's hit show Joan of Arcadia. The new show already has a loyal fan base and an estimated 11 million viewers each night; in 2004 it won a People's Choice Award for Favorite New Dramatic Series.
Naturally, much of the attention has rubbed off on the star of the show -- Amber Tamblyn. Her portrayal of the troubled teen who talks to God earned her a Golden Globe and Emmy nomination (both in 2004).
amber tamblyn writes poetry
Now Amber's options are more open than ever. Currently filming the upcoming movie The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (set for a 2005 release), Amber is balancing other film offers while working to keep Joan of Arcadia in ratings heaven.
She fills her spare time with other artistic endeavors, including singing, dancing and theater, and she writes poetry. She has self-published two books of poems, Of The Dawn and Plenty of Ships, and her work has appeared in the San Francisco publications Cups and Poetry USA.

A 12-year-old girl lay in her bed, growing sicker and sicker. Her parents watched helplessly. They could do nothing to save her.
Then they remembered amazing stories they had heard about a man living among them named Jesus. People said He could heal the sick and make blind people see. Maybe He could save their daughter's life!
The girl's father, Jairus, ran to find Jesus. He begged Jesus to heal his daughter. Then a messenger came with terrible news. It was too late. The girl had already died. "Be not afraid," Jesus said to Jairus, "only believe" (Mark 5:36).
When Jesus and Jairus arrived at Jairus's house, they went into the room where the girl was lying. Jesus took the girl by the hand and told her to arise. When she stood up, her parents were amazed. Jesus had brought their daughter back to life!
That day Jesus showed how much He cared for the girl and her family by blessing them. Jesus shows how much He cares for us in many wonderful and amazing ways:
- •
He helped create the beautiful world and all its plants and animals.
- •
He volunteered to come to earth to be our Savior, even though He knew it would be very hard.
- •
He spent His life on earth blessing, healing, and teaching others.
- •
He lived a perfect life.
- •
He willingly suffered for our sins in the Garden of Gethsemane and died on the cross so we can learn, grow, and one day live with Heavenly Father again.
Song and Scripture
- •
"I Stand All Amazed" (Hymns, no. 193)
- •
Ideas for Family Talk
Together you could read the story of Jairus's daughter (see Luke 8:41–42, 49–56). Then you could hold up the picture of the Savior on the next page and invite family members to share some of the wonderful and amazing ways the Savior shows His love for them. Family members could also take turns reading the verses of "I Stand All Amazed." After each verse, invite the family to join in singing the chorus. Then discuss or draw pictures of ways your family can show love for the Savior.

"If Apple doesn't release a so-called iPad mini before the end of 2012, sales of the touchscreen tablet computer will likely still exceed 21 million units. But if the iPad mini does come, a barnburner could be in store for Apple's final quarter of the year"
So without iPad mini 21 million, with iPad mini would be 30 million.
By this statement it means 9~10 million in the 4th quarter alone for iPad mini.
So they expect iPad mini just in the 4th quarter of 2012 to sell better than any of the previous gen iPad can do by themselves which has been selling for years.
I am not so optimistic on the numbers.
I still don't think Apple are preparing a 7" iPad Model. Especially not for a release before the next iPad. Apple production capacity is stretched right now with iPhone 5, they'll next be ramping up iPad 4 production so to add another product would not make sense until after the iPad 4, perhaps June timeframe when they don't have a major product refresh and in conjunction with WWDC.
I would not use iPhone as a template for the sale for iPad mini, the only number you can use would be from iPad 1, 2 & 3 sales figures.
Let's not forget all the used iPad 1, 2 & 3 will be coming on the market when iPad mini comes out, as well as the drop in sales of the previous gen iPad because iPad mini is a direct competition to the previous gens.
Apple have a reputation of not having enough stock so if someone wanted a smaller tablet they would've already brought an Android Tablet.
I cant see the iPad mini doing anything good except COPY what Android tablets already do which is the 7 inch market. It wont be good. I for certain wont be buying one EVER. I already have the iPad 3 and a Galaxy Tab 7.7 so I got both big and small tablets and I prefer the GT 7.7 as its a better unit. I'm disappointed I didn't get the 10.1 inch GT as that would've kicked butt (*** gets censored) over the iPad.
About the not enough stock yesterday a friend of mine went out to get an iPhone. As they are out of stock today she's gone out to get a Galaxy S3. There you go Apple, you lost another customer for not having enough stock. You knew you would need more so why didn't you get more made?
I do like the animated backgrounds and widgets but it kinda ends there. UI isn't smooth, finding an app is time consuming, unresponsive keyboard; I just can't make myself enjoy it.
I will say, a lot of the apps are free so that's really nice!!!
Here's why I agree w/ the other people's ideas:
-No need for Apple to continue making 3-4 different styles of iPods.
-iPod Nano/Shuffle are easily portable
*lightning dock frees up space for larger HD or screen
-Tablets are becoming commonplace (regardless of pocketability), eliminating the need to carry an:
iPad Mini and 'iPhone or iPod Touch'

Lydia Ko second in NSW Open title defence
Sweden's Caroline Hedwall held off two of the world's finest teenaged amateurs Lydia Ko and Minjee Lee to win her second NSW Open women's golf title on Sunday.
Hedwall fired a final-round 68 to finish on 13-under par, two shots clear of defending champion and New Zealand's 15-year-old world No 1 ranked amateur Ko (69).
Australian amateur champion Minjee Lee (71), the No.3-ranked amateur in the world, stayed in contention until the 16-year-old incurred her first and only bogey of the tournament after 48 holes and finished on 10-under.
"It's always good when young players come up and battle with the older ones and I think it's fun," Hedwall said.
It was a repeat of the 2011 tournament in which Hedwall shaded the then 13-year-old Ko for first spot.
The tournament tilted in Hedwall's direction over the last two holes of a round played in steady drizzle.
The Swede edged a shot ahead with a par on the 17th hole which Ko bogeyed after her drive found the trees.
"I actually thought about the last time I was here two years ago, and Lydia was one up going into the last hole," said Hedwall, who earned A$18,750.
"I hit a great (tee) shot and set up for a nice birdie putt and took a lot of pressure off.
"I really enjoy those situations, I love being under pressure and that's what I practise for."
Hedwall, the highest-ranked professional in the tournament at No.39, bogeyed the par-four first but picked up three birdies before the turn and two more coming home.
After carrying her own bag for the previous two days, Hedwall had younger sister Jacqueline, who missed the cut, act as her caddie.
Caroline won four European Tour events in 2011 and another one last year after spending several weeks sidelined by injury.
Ko bogeyed the first two holes to drop three off the pace, but charged back into contention by picking up four stokes over three holes, highlighted by an eagle three on the sixth.
Birdies on the 11th and 14th pulled her level with Hedwall.
On the 16th, she pulled off a miraculous par when she was granted a drop in a bunker after her ball was deemed to be lying in casual water in the sand.
Ko fluffed her bunker shot, hitting it just a couple of metres out of the sand, but then chipped in.
"I was like 'oh my God maybe I could win this,"' Ko said.
"I think I got a little bit excited and a little bit tense in the shoulders and it (my tee shot on 17) went straight left."
With temporary contact lenses left back home, bespectacled Ko said she had huge problems in the steady rain.
"Every couple of holes I have to get them cleaned, I hope they make glasses like windscreen wipers in cars, I wished they had those."

WOOTTON Bassett captain Darren Beasant saluted the "hideously talented" Jack Paish after the youngster's unbeaten 71 helped his side beat Swindon NALGO by three wickets in their first game of the new Wiltshire League season.
Bassett, tipped for promotion back to the West of England Premier League pyramid this term, chased down 194 to win with three and a half overs to spare, Paish steadying the ship after a flurry of wickets in the middle of the innings.
Beasant said: "We needed more than a run a ball for a while, but Jack came in and played superbly.
"It's good to win a game, particularly from a tough position, and that will give all the boys confidence."
Lee Stevens and Ian Lancaster each took three wickets as Bassett slowed down the flying start made by the NALGO top order.
Adam Cooksey's 68 was in vain as Hinton Charterhouse got the better of Bradford on Avon in their opener.
An opening stand of 42, Ian Pinchen (25) and James Edwards (27), was followed up by Cooksey, but the last five overs yielded 16 runs and loss of four wickets with Bradford finishing on 164-9.
In the reply, Richard Thomas claimed a wicket with his first ball, bowling Richard Newport for a duck.
With the returning Mishak Belfon bowling an excellent line, the left-arm spin of Dan Tallentire helped pin Hinton down to 47-3 in the 16th over.
But a match-winning partnership of a 123 from Tom Naylor (77 not out) and Chris Antrobus (38 not out) led Hinton to victory.
Malmesbury made a winning start to their Division One campaign as they saw off Beanacre & Melksham by eight wickets.
Beanacre totalled 165-8 from their 45 overs but, led by an unbeaten 98 by George Royle, Malmesbury got home inside 39 overs.
Also first-day winners were Urchfont, who got home by 44 runs against hosts Box.
They were out for 108 in 31.2 overs, Vaughan Williams with 24 as Box's Rob Styles took 5-41 from nine overs.
But led by the bowling of Joe Dorgan (5-25), Urchfont hit back, dismissing Box for just 64 in under 29 overs.
Urchfont captain Patrick Bromley said: "We knew Box would be a tough outfit after they won every league game last year. Our fielding and bowling attack is really exceptional this year and credit to the team we kept things really tight.''
Scott McNeill's efforts with both bat and ball ensured Collingbourne suffered a loss against Swindon Civil Service, who scored 169-9 from their 45 overs, Jamie Baden with 64 and McNeill 40 as Ian Kiy took 2-16.
Collingbourne fell 13 runs short in reply, Jon Candler hitting 54 but McNeill and Andy Mildenhall taking four wickets apiece for Service.
Division 2
ROB Anstee's haul of 5-10 in just 6.3 overs helped Spye Park, relegated from the top flight last term, make a winning start as they defeated Beckington by five wickets.
Beckington were out for just 103, which Park knocked off in under 41 overs, Andy Ellis with 22.
Division 3
HEYTESBURY & Sutton Veny secured a comfortable nine-wicket victory over Beanacre & Melksham 2nd.
Simon Papworth swept through the Beanacre innings with 7-31 as they were all out for 76 in the 25th over.
It took Heytesbury just 20 overs to secure their victory, Ollie Hares finishing unbeaten on 41.
Corsham 3rd were also winners by 52 runs over Avebury. Corsham's 153-6 proved enough as Luke Curtis took 6-11 in eight overs to dismiss Avebury for 101, despite an unbeaten 40 from Greg Dix.
Division 4
GARETH Unwin also took six wickets, this time for 41 in 11.4 overs as he helped to dismiss Wootton Bassett 3rd for 164, Max Dymoke scoring 75 for Bassett.
Andy Davis' unbeaten 79 and 62 from Will Wales helped Corsham to a seven-wicket triumph.
Division 5
SKIPPER Danny Hall's 3-16 helped Bradford on Avon (57 all out) get the better of White Horse (56 all out) in a thrilling low-scoring clash.
White Horse won the toss and fielded, Rufus Lakin and Chris Hotchen both scoring 11 for Bradford.
However, Horse were three wickets down with just four runs on the board tight bowling and sharp fielding leaving them needing two to win, before Lakin secured the final wicket leaving Bradford as improbable victors.
Ian Sandell scored 61 in Chippenham 3rd's 90 all out against Spye Park 2nd, for whom Elliott Townsend took 6-18 in 6.2 overs. Mat Cole's 4-10 then helped to dismiss Spye for 61 in the 36th over.
Division 6
OLLIE Smith took 5-27 and Rob Cooke 4-20 as Heytesbury & Sutton Veny 2nd dismissed Box 2nd for 99 in the 39th over.
Heytesbury passed their target in 30 overs, Aiden Davison scoring 56 and Andy Frost 39 not out.
Ged Roddy hit an unbeaten 53 to help Winsley 3rd (90-1) see off Collingbourne (86 all out) by nine wickets.
Division 7
BEEHIVE (Southwick) (93-5) had Mike Reeves' unbeaten 41 to thank for a five-wicket victory over Devizes 3rd.
Ealier, Colin Gilling (3-14) and Phil Stockley (3-17) had helped to dismiss Devizes for 92 in under 40 overs.

LAFAYETTE — It was a special night, where extraordinary plays created an explosive ending.
Dressed entirely in black for the first time in modern school history, the University of Louisiana at Lafayette celebrated the "Black Out" and Cajun Field on Saturday night with a pair of touchdowns in the final two minutes and 43 seconds.
ULL's two comebacks led by sophomore quarterback Terrrance Broadway erased a 10-point Western Kentucky lead and enabled the Cajuns to become bowl eligible for the fourth time in five seasons with a 31-27 win over the Hilltoppers before 20,314 fans.
Broadway produced 403 total offensive yards for the Cajuns, but his 4-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Jamal Robinson with 2:43 left and his touchdown run from the same distance in the final 38 seconds, enabled ULL to improve to 6-4 overall and 4-2 in the Sun Belt.
Although the Cajuns appeared headed for a loss after a WKU touchdown with 6:00 remaining, Broadway said he was confident of a comeback.
"The word believe is on the back of my jersey, and our team believes and never lets go of the rope," Broadway said.
ULL's final touchdown drive began after the Cajuns held WKU (6-5, 3-4) on downs and started the final drive of 93 yards with no timeouts and 1:11 remaining in the game.
Broadway completed four passes to wide receiver Harry Peoples on the drive. Then on second down, Broadway dropped back as if to pass and then tucked the ball under and ran through the middle of the WKU defense into the end zone.
The Hilltoppers had a last shot to win the game after WKU quarterback Kawaun Jakes drove his team to the Cajuns' 35.
On the game's final play, WKU sent several receivers into the end zone, but Jakes' pass that was apparently caught by the Hilltoppers Jonathan Dowling, who fell down with the ball out of bounds, was ruled incomplete.
"It shouldn't have come to that final play. I don't think we tackled well the whole game," WKU head coach Willie Taggert said.
ULL coach Mark Hudspeth gave his team credit for not quitting even when the Hilltoppers took the 10-point lead late in the game.
"We are finding a way and that's what we are about. I thought our team hung in there and never quit. I thought this might have been our best offensive game of the year.
"I thought the only time we really stopped ourselves was when we had turnovers," said Hudspeth.
Broadway and Peoples connected for 13 receptions and 144 yards.
The Cajuns finished with 582 total yards against WKU, which led the SBC in nearly every defensive category at the start of the game.
ULL had trouble stopping Hilltoppers' running back Antoine Andrews, who gained 238 yards on 37 carries.
In the second half the teams traded leads nearly throughout the final two periods.
WKU took a 13-10 lead with 7:19 left in the third period after a second field goal by place-kicker Garrett Schwettman.
ULL responded with an 81-yard touchdown drive when running back Torrey Pierce carried 15 yards into the end zone with 2:51 remaining.
Cajuns' place-kicker Brett Baer recovered his own onside kick at the ULL 46, but the Cajuns squandered the chance to extend the lead when tight end Jason Thompson fumbled a reception at the WKU 28 with 2:36 left.
In the fourth period, Andrews scored on a 17-yard run with 14:19 left to give the Hilltopers a 20-17 lead. Andrews scored again to give WKU the 27-17 advantage before the Cajuns began their comeback.
After a scoreless first quarter, the teams used four of the last five second period possessions to each score a touchdown and a field goal.
WKU initiated the scoring with a touchdown (67 yards, seven plays) with 10:16 remaining. Jakes completed a pair of passes to Willie McNeil and Jack Doyle for a combined 43 yards. Those completions came after a first down 22-yard run by Keshawn Simpson. The touchdown came on Simpson's 1-yard run.
The Cajuns tied the score on the next possession with a five-play, 84-yard touchdown drive.
Four of the plays gained over 15 yards, with Broadway completing passes to Surgent (22) and Peoples (12). Harris broke a 20-yard run before running back Torrey Pierce ran 18 yards for the touchdown (8:18).
Andrews returned the kickoff 55 yards to set up a career-long 42 yard field goal by Garrett Schwettman that gave WKU a 10-7 lead (6:08).
ULL tied the game on Baer's 23-yard field goal on the final play of the half. On that drive which started at the ULL 29, Broadway completed three passes to Peoples for gains of 29 yards.

COOPERSTOWN, N.Y., May 20, 2008—The New York State Historical Association and the New York State Archives Partnership, with co-sponsorship from the New York Council for the Humanities, will bring together educators, public historians, archaeologists, librarians, genealogists and archivists to Skidmore College, Saratoga Springs, New York, from Thursday through Saturday, June 5-7, 2008 for the 29th Annual Conference on New York State History.
The conference offers scholars of all levels a supportive setting in which to present their recent research and scholarship on the history of New York State and receive constructive comment from colleagues. Particular highlights of this year's program include two daylong workshops—one presented by the Upstate History Alliance, which will focus on connecting teachers and historians with research resources, and another targeted at the particular needs of county and borough historians, as well as evening walking tours of the Saratoga Springs cityscape and an exciting guided trip to Fort Ticonderoga.
We are pleased to be hosting keynote speaker Kevin Baker, author of Dreamland, Paradise Alley, and Sometimes You See It Coming, who will be speaking about his books' use of New York State and its history. His lecture is sponsored by the New York Council for the Humanities and will be free and open to the public without conference registration. The talk begins at 8 pm and takes place in the Gannett Auditorium at Skidmore College.
Kevin Baker is the author of four novels, including the three historical novels of his "City of Fire" trilogy about New York City, Dreamland (1999), Paradise Alley (2002), and Strivers Row. He was also the chief historical researcher on the 1998, bestselling history, The American Century, by Harold Evans, with Gail Buckland and Kevin Baker. Mr. Baker is currently at work on a history of New York City baseball, and has written the graphic novel, Luna Park, which will be published next year by DC Comics. He has contributed short stories and chapters to a number of collections, and has written for many periodicals, including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, the Chicago Tribune, and the Los Angeles Times. He is a contributing editor at Harper's magazine, and at American Heritage, where for ten years he wrote the In the News column.
Each year the conference also features the Wendell Tripp Lecture; this year's speaker, Martin Bruegel of the Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique of France, will discuss his research on the historical shift to a market economy in the Hudson Valley in his talk, "An Acceptable Refreshment: Eating and Drinking in the Hudson Valley, 1780-1860."
Skidmore College's Palamountain Hall's lobby will be filled with publishers, book dealers, and organizations eager to share their products and services with conference participants. Exhibitors at this year's conference will include: Cornell University Press; Purple Mountain Press; aGatherin'/Ephemera Society of America; Rockefeller Archive Center; New York Wanderer Press; State University of New York Press; New York Folklore Society; Hudson Microimaging, Inc.; Syracuse University Press; The Donning Company Publishers; Tuxedo Historical Society; Upstate History Alliance; The History Press; and the New York State Library.
The exhibit hall will also feature three historical exhibits: Samuel Hayden Sexton and the Lost Giles F. Yates Sketch by Ona Curran, Schenectady County Historical Society and Laura Lee Linder, First Reformed Church of Schenectady; The Dutch Farm Survey: Exploring Your Own Backyard by the Dutch Barn Preservation Society; and The Restoration of the Knickerbocker Mansion by Knickerbocker Historical Society.
Except for the Keynote Lecture, which is free and open to the public, the conference is open to all by registration, in advance or at the door. Overnight accommodations are available at Skidmore College dormitories and at area hotels. For a conference schedule, please e-mail the conference coordinator at firstname.lastname@example.com or visit online at www.nysha.org.
