COllege football roundup: Manziel is back with 3 TDsTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS | September 01,2013AP PHOTO
Texas A&M star quarterback Johnny Manziel (2) made another big splash after spending the first game of Saturdays game on the sidelines.COLLEGE STATION, Texas Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel served his suspension for No. 7 Texas A&M in the first half on Saturday against Rice.
In the second half he hit the ground running and apparently running his mouth, too as he threw three touchdown passes and scrambled for 19 yards and the Aggies wrapped up a lopsided 52-31 win over the Owls.
He was suspended until halftime for what the school said was an inadvertent violation of NCAA rules involving signing autographs.
His first touchdown of the season came on a 23-yard pass to Mike Evans on A&Ms next drive. Manziel scrambled for eight yards on third-and-7 on the play before the score and appeared to mimic a signing motion while talking to a Rice defender after getting up from the tackle.
He drew an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty after a touchdown throw in the fourth quarter when he was jawing with the defense again and then pointed at the scoreboard. He was replaced by Matt Joeckel on A&Ms last drive.
Joeckel started at quarterback for A&M and threw for 190 yards and a touchdown to help the Aggies lead 28-21 at halftime. Manziel came in on Texas A&Ms first offensive play of the second half and the Aggies capped his first drive with a 44-yard field goal.
Manziel was being investigated for allegedly accepting money for autographs from memorabilia brokers, a violation of NCAA rules that could have led to a much longer suspension.
Notre Dame 28, Temple 6
SOUTH BEND, Ind. Tommy Rees threw a pair of 32-yard touchdown passes to DaVaris Daniels, a 66-yard scoring pass to Troy Niklas and Notre Dame had three quick scoring drives en route to a 28-6 victory over Temple on Saturday.
The 14th-ranked Irish jumped to a 14-0 lead on a pair of three-play drives on its opening two possessions and appeared headed for a blowout. But when the Notre Dame offense stalled, Temple squandered a pair of scoring chances, with Jim Cooper Jr. missing a pair of field goals. An unsettled feeling settled in at Notre Dame Stadium when Kenny Harper scored on a 1-yard run to cut the lead to 14-6. The Irish regained control, however, with Niklas TD with 43 seconds left in the half.
The victory by the Irish (1-0) was the 200th career win for coach Brian Kelly. The Owls (0-1) fell to 2-76 all-time against ranked opponents.
Florida 24, Toledo 6
GAINESVILLE, Fla. Mack Brown had a career day, Jeff Driskel was efficient and No. 10 Florida opened the season with a 24-6 victory over Toledo on Saturday.
Brown ran 25 times for 112 yards and two touchdowns. Driskel completed 17 of 22 passes for 153 yards and a score. And Floridas defense, which ranked fifth in the country in 2012, looked every bit as good as last years version despite losing eight starters and its coordinator.
The Gators controlled both lines of scrimmage, opening holes for Brown and keeping steady pressure on Toledos experienced spread offense. It was exactly the style of play Florida has become known for under third-year coach Will Muschamp. No flashiness. Few highlight-reel plays. But a win in the end.
It was Floridas 24th consecutive season-opening victory, the second-longest active streak in the country. Only Nebraska (27) has a longer current run.
Ohio State 40, Buffalo 20
COLUMBUS, Ohio Braxton Miller threw two touchdown passes before fighting leg cramps and Jordan Hall ran for two more scores to lead No. 2 Ohio State to a 40-20 victory over Buffalo on Saturday in the season opener for both teams.
The Buckeyes, striving for a crisper start from coach Urban Meyers debut in 2012, led 23-0 after the first quarter before the Bulls made things interesting. Joe Licata threw two TD passes and linebacker Kahlil Mack returned a Miller interception 45 yards to make it 30-20 in the third quarter.
Miller was sidelined a second time with cramps and sub Kenny Guiton promptly tossed a 21-yard TD pass to Chris Fields.
Hall had a career-high 159 yards rushing, scoring on runs of 37 and 49 yards.
Wisconsin 45, UMass 0
MADISON, Wis. New coach, same ol Badgers.
Melvin Gordon ran for 144 yards and a 70-yard touchdown, James White added 143 and a 51-yard score, and No. 23 Wisconsins revamped defense throttled Massachusetts in a 45-0 victory Saturday over Massachusetts in coach Gary Andersens debut.
Newly minted starting quarterback Joel Stave overcame a slow start to connect with receiver with Jared Abbrederis for two long touchdowns in the second half.
It was 31-0 with 10:31 to go in the third quarter by the time White sauntered through the line untouched and into the end zone for a 51-yard score.
The only tradition left to put this Badgers opener in the books was for the Camp Randall Stadium public address system to blare House of Pains Jump Around to get the fans in the stands hopping for the fourth quarter. Many in the student section scattered soon afterward with the game well in hand.
UMass was simply overmatched against the Big Tens three-time defending champion. The Minutemen are only in their second year as a major college program, and they had to play Saturday with two of their top offensive players in running back Jordan Broadnax and tight end Rob Blanchflower out with injuries.

Crystal structure of thrombin in complex with fibrinogen gamma' peptide
Elevated levels of heterodimeric gamma(A)/gamma' fibrinogen 2 have been associated with an increased incidence of coronary artery disease, whereas a lowered content of gamma' chains is associated with an increased risk of venous thrombosis. Both situations may be related to the unique features of thrombin binding to variant gamma' chains. The gamma' peptide is an anionic fragment that binds thrombin with high affinity without interfering directly with substrate binding. Here we report the crystal structure of thrombin bound to the gamma' peptide, solved at 2.4 A resolution. The complex reveals extensive interactions between thrombin and the gamma' peptide mediated by electrostatic contacts with residues of exosite II and hydrophobic interactions with a pocket in close proximity to the Na(+) binding site. In its binding mode, the gamma' peptide completely overlaps with heparin bound to exosite II. These findings are consistent with functional data and broaden our understanding of how thrombin interacts with fibrinogen at the molecular level.
Crystal structure of thrombin in complex with fibrinogen gamma' peptide., Pineda AO, Chen ZW, Marino F, Mathews FS, Mosesson MW, Di Cera E, Biophys Chem. 2007 Feb;125(2-3):556-9. Epub 2006 Aug 23. PMID:16962697
From MEDLINE®/PubMed®, a database of the U.S. National Library of Medicine.
[THRB_HUMAN] Defects in F2 are the cause of factor II deficiency (FA2D) [MIM:613679]. It is a very rare blood coagulation disorder characterized by mucocutaneous bleeding symptoms. The severity of the bleeding manifestations correlates with blood factor II levels.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] Genetic variations in F2 may be a cause of susceptibility to ischemic stroke (ISCHSTR) [MIM:601367]; also known as cerebrovascular accident or cerebral infarction. A stroke is an acute neurologic event leading to death of neural tissue of the brain and resulting in loss of motor, sensory and/or cognitive function. Ischemic strokes, resulting from vascular occlusion, is considered to be a highly complex disease consisting of a group of heterogeneous disorders with multiple genetic and environmental risk factors.[13] Defects in F2 are the cause of thrombophilia due to thrombin defect (THPH1) [MIM:188050]. It is a multifactorial disorder of hemostasis characterized by abnormal platelet aggregation in response to various agents and recurrent thrombi formation. Note=A common genetic variation in the 3-prime untranslated region of the prothrombin gene is associated with elevated plasma prothrombin levels and an increased risk of venous thrombosis. Defects in F2 are associated with susceptibility to pregnancy loss, recurrent, type 2 (RPRGL2) [MIM:614390]. A common complication of pregnancy, resulting in spontaneous abortion before the fetus has reached viability. The term includes all miscarriages from the time of conception until 24 weeks of gestation. Recurrent pregnancy loss is defined as 3 or more consecutive spontaneous abortions.[14] [FIBG_HUMAN] Defects in FGG are a cause of congenital afibrinogenemia (CAFBN) [MIM:202400]. This rare autosomal recessive disorder is characterized by bleeding that varies from mild to severe and by complete absence or extremely low levels of plasma and platelet fibrinogen. Note=Patients with congenital fibrinogen abnormalities can manifest different clinical pictures. Some cases are clinically silent, some show a tendency toward bleeding and some show a predisposition for thrombosis with or without bleeding.
[THRB_HUMAN] Thrombin, which cleaves bonds after Arg and Lys, converts fibrinogen to fibrin and activates factors V, VII, VIII, XIII, and, in complex with thrombomodulin, protein C. Functions in blood homeostasis, inflammation and wound healing.[15] [FIBG_HUMAN] Fibrinogen has a double function: yielding monomers that polymerize into fibrin and acting as a cofactor in platelet aggregation.

Sunday Brunch in Raleigh/Chapel Hill?
I'm looking to take someone to a nice Sunday brunch or lunch. I'd prefer a place that is close to North Raleigh OR close to Chapel Hill. Any ideas?
My favorite breakfast/brunch place is usually Finch's in Raleigh, but this time I'm looking for a place that's a little bit nicer. Budget is $50 for two.
re: dinersaurus
I'm a big fan of Coquette and have been very pleased with lunch and dinner there. We tried their brunch recently and it was not the same caliber experience.
The food quality and preparation was good. No garnish, $4 side of potatoes was small for the price. An omelet came out with the other persons potatoes. Then a bread basket. Eventually the Benedict that went with the potatoes arrived. Coffee refill was never offered, had to ask. Service rather uninterested...
When an omelet was ordered the server asked if anything was desired with it. My SO replied "toast?". Well the toast came,basic white bread, two slices cut on the diagonal. And a $4 charge since it turns out they consider it a side. No butter, no jam....I have trouble feeling that two slices of rather basic toast warrants a $4 charge, especially since it wasn't clear that it was an "extra".
If this had been our first experience there it would have become our last. Since all prior meals have been great I suspect either we caught a very off service or maybe brunch just isn't their best option.
In Chapel Hill, many people seem to like Carolina Crossroads at The Carolina Inn. I haven't yet gone myself, but two foodie friends of mine who are terrifically knowledgeable about food really like it. I'm taking my mom there for her birthday in a couple weeks, so I can let you know. I'm not sure on prices, but it is probably somewhere in that range.
re: durhamois
I'd second that recommendation. Back when my parents could travel down here, we'd have brunch there, and it was always good. Also, I've been there for dinner several times and never had a bad meal. I think Carolina Crossroads is under-appreciated for what it offers. Maybe because it's in a hotel?
The Sunday brunch at Acme in Carrboro is my favorite, hands down - whatever you order (I like the cheddar, tomato, bacon and wild mushroom omelet or the Carolina Eggs Benedict with fried green tomatoes) be sure to get a side of whatever the seasonal coffee cake is. Bistro vibe, moderate prices.
If you can make it to Watts Grocery in Durham, DO! The grits bowl with local sausage is amazing, and the churros (little cinnamon donut sticks) with hot chocolate dipping sauce are worth driving across the Triangle for.
re: emandm
I have heard that the brunch at ACME is terrific too -- even a friend who's a server there will go for brunch on her day off. But I wouldn't know personally because the person I'm mostly likely to have brunch with when she visits won't let us try it. She makes us go to Crook's Corner every time, which is just fine with me. I usually have the Eggs New Bern (like Benedict, but on a biscuit with tasso ham), but last weekend I tried the Cajun omelet (classic creole sauce, cheese and, of course, tasso ham), and it was terrific too. Also, we love their Bloody Mary's with pickled okra that they will bring you on the stroke of noon. I should also mention their iconic shrimp and grits, too...
re: ksherk
The brunch at ACME has been woefully inconsistent... always excellent bloody marys, but service ranges from pretty good, if hurried, to 'OMG my server has clearly been abducted' bad. Food this past Sunday came out cold, coffee was never refilled, despite asking a few times.
Watts, on the other hand, has been a rockin' experience. EXCELLENT food, super cheap ($6 for a huge grits bowl with all those toppings? yum!) the aforementioned churros, a killer catfish po-boy... the list goes on. We can bike to ACME from our house, but Watts has quickly supplanted it as our go-to Sunday brunch... but make a reservation. Line was at the door at the opening bell a couple of weeks ago.
re: Pigloader
I would have to agree that the problem with brunch at Acme is that it's inconsistent. But still I would recommend it because when it's good, it's really banging.
re: Pigloader
Totally inconsistent. And they feel free to change what they offer from what it says on the menu. I've had good brunches there, and just horrendous ones. Not willing to chance it again.
re: emandm
They have churros and chocolate at Watts? I'm so going! Thanks for the tip!
Our favorite places to eat brunch have been Acme (no issues with service for us), and Rue Cler in Durham. The Beignets and French Toast at Rue Cler are both fantastic, as is the Oeufs Rue Cler. Nothing we have had there hasn't been great, and it's usually not hard at all to get a table, and easily falls in the price range.
Rue Cler Restaurant
401 E Chapel Hill St, Durham, NC 27701
re: cheinonen
LOVE brunch at Rue Cler.
I really like the brunch at Panzanella in Chapel Hill, and it would be under $50. Good eggs benedict.
If you are in North Raleigh, you should try Zest as they always have a nice brunch that's fairly reasonable.
The last place I did brunch was NoFo at the Pig. It was crowded for it's tiny space, but for the life of me I couldn't tell what all the fuss was about. The benedicts I had were way too salty. I think the next place in line is Southern Rail but only because the person suggesting the place has a coupon for it. I've heard it has gone terribly downhill and fast.
re: burgeoningfoodie
Feeling very dumb here, but what is NoFo at the Pig?
re: LulusMom
It's a restaurant/shop at Five Points in between Lilly's Pizza and the Wachovia.
See: http://www.nofo.com/
re: dinersaurus
Thanks dinersaurus, I'd never heard of that one. I don't often make it into Raleigh.
re: LulusMom
The Raleigh location used to be a very old, smaller Piggly Wiggly - hence "the pig". They have used the pig motif for the railing in the parking area.
re: meatn3
I saw an ad in the recent issue of Durham Skywriter that Palace International is now open on Sundays from 11am to 4pm for brunch. Seems that they have a buffet available for $8. Has anyone tried this yet? I'd love to know what its like.
See page 19 of the Jan/Feb issue in the link below for the ad.
re: burgeoningfoodie
i thought nofo was awful when we went. haven't done brunch in raleigh but i hear that raleigh times and poole's are where it's at.
re: burgeoningfoodie
I have done Nofo and Zest and they were ok but am thinking of trying out Savoy. Have you been to Michael Deans for their brunch buffet or to Winston's?
re: panthur
We tried Michael Deans for the first time last week. It was pretty good! Heavy on seafood (good for me) but if someone didn't like seafood there are still many options. Omelets, pancakes and waffles made to order with numerous add ons available. Buffet dishes were turned over fast and refilled quickly. The pancake was the weakest dish - not cooked through. I suspect the heat was not correct - the fellow was slammed with waffle requests and probably got very few orders for pancakes. Waffles had nice flavor, very light consistency. Lots of protein and carbs, lighter on fruits and veg.
If you sign up for their e-mails they send a coupon ($10 off iirc).
re: meatn3
Sweet, thanks for the heads up. I just got a free breakfast at Mimis for signing up to their newsletter as well. We may end up giving them another shot - they start serving at 10am plus list nutritionals on the website, which is a biggie for one of our guests.
I've been to Michael Deans for their dinner a few times and really enjoyed it.
re: panthur
I recently hit Savoy for brunch and enjoyed it. They have a pretty standard brunch menu - eggs benedict, steak and eggs, biscuits and gravy, etc. They also have a few lunch items mixed in with brunch including an outstanding burger. They have a small outdoor area that might be nice in the warmer weather. We plan to return.

When everything seemed so prefect; it began to break. I'm just looking for a new beginning.
'To my favorite liar, to my favorite scar: I could have died with you'
It was hard for her to put her trust in the hands of just anybody, cause when she did, she usually got shafted. She wouldn't let that happen again, not with him. She couldn't stand to be hurt again, she wasn't sure if her heart was strong enough to sustain another break. Her fingers traced the scars on her wrists; constant reminders of why he wouldn't be trusted, of why he couldn't be trusted. No there had to be an easier way then this.
His fingers brought her head up to his, looking into her eyes, and he smiled warily.
"You have to trust me."
"But, I-I don't think I can do that."
"I trusted you didn't I?" she sighed, he was right. He was always right. She couldn't even bring herself to reply, she knew what was coming. "Then trust me. I love you."
"I love you too." She whispered into his chest, burying her face in it as she tried to find comfort. She wasn't going to run from this, no. She needed him.
'A sour bottle baby girl, with eyes the size of baby worlds'
His eyes searched everywhere in the house, he was almost convinced that she had left until he heard a soft sob coming from the bathroom. He rushed there to try to open the door, but to no avail, cause the door was locked. He cursed to himself as he played with the knob for a few seconds before banging.
"Come on, please, just open up."
"No!" He sighed, this was going to be a lot harder then he opted for.
"Please?" He begged, "Look I know I made some rough mistakes and said a few things I did not mean but," He paused, taking a deep breath. In his mind he wanted to be face-to-face with her when he first said these three words, because well, he knew when looking into her eyes and seeing the reaction that's when they would mean the most.
"But what?" She yelled through the wooden block in between them. He took another deep breath and fixed his hat.
"I love you." Then there was silence.
He wasn't sure if she heard him, or if he should repeat himself. Maybe he scared her, and he was sure that she'd probably never want to see him again. He was almost ready to just give up before he heard a sigh and a shuffle and then the door unlocked. It didn't open, but he took it upon himself to go inside and pulled her into the biggest hug he could give. She sobbed into his shirt for a few mintues before looking up at him. Her bloodshot eyes looked up into his, and he could've sworn he saw his whole world there. When he said those three words, he meant them.
"I-I love you too." She breathed on his neck as she rested her head there. She could've stayed there forever, with him is where she belonged.

Short of pulling a Zach Braff, there's one sure way to get known as a screenwriter: Put your actual name in the title of the script. Add a bunch of indie bands, find a Braff look-alike (Jay Baruchel) to play the lead, top it off with some obscure animal hybrida zorse instead of a ligerand you've got writer Reed Fish's can't-fail debut. The semi- fictional character Fish, with both parents dead in a car accident, looks set to follow in his father's footsteps: take over the small-town radio show"the voice of Mud Meadows"that his dad hosted for years, marry the local hottie (Alexis Bledel), and settle in to a life of babymaking, bowling, and Dance Dance Revolution. But wait! Cue the old high school flame (Schuyler Fisk), back from college and casting her indie-folk spell to "hook the Fish." And just so you know this Fish has got chops, there's a flashy Brechtian film-within-a-film conceit, showing Fish (still played by Baruchel) making his film and even, for a moment, substituting his real girlfriends (or are they?!?) for their on-screen doubles. Because irony fixes everything.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Despite opening lower in the morning, the S&P 500 closed up 0.03%.
On CNBC's "Fast Money" TV show, Guy Adami, managing director of stockmonster.com, said he's surprised by the continued move higher in the S&P 500. He added that bond yields will likely go lower since bond prices have remained strong.
Tim Seymour, managing partner of Triogem Asset Management, suggested investors not sell copper because it is near the critical $3 level. He added that the Market Vectors Russia ETF (RSX) is oversold.
Karen Finerman, president of Metropolitan Capital Advisors, said that emerging markets still appear to be growing.Dan Nathan, co-founder and editor of riskreversal.com, was a seller of emerging markets. He pointed out the weak Chinese economic data that was released earlier this week.
The global "flight to safety" may be to U.S. equities for now, but Adami said the real flight to safety trade will ultimately be in U.S. bonds, which will drive bond yields down. Garmin (GRMN), Alcoa (AA) and Salesforce.com (CRM) are among the most heavily shorted stocks in the S&P 500. Seymour said that although demand for aluminum is up, shares of Alcoa have gone too far, too fast. He was a seller at current levels. Nathan said Salesforce.com should continue to move higher so long as it continues to see growth in the cloud business. Adami is a buyer of Garmin, saying it can move above $60 per share. Nomura Securities' Anthony Diclemente said investors underestimated how well Facebook (FB) would do on mobile. The company has three core growth avenues: user growth, ad pricing growth and further monetization. He has a buy rating on the stock with a $78 price target.

Found this to be a decent recipe, although the sandwich was pretty bland - not what I expected based on the ingredient list. With the flank steak, parm-regg. and portobello being a little pricey, I don't think I will make this again. Also, you need the meat trimmed paper thin, otherwise it will be really chewy.
Philly Cheesesteak

swerner01 Posted: 03/19/12
Thought the meat and veggie mixture was very good. The cheese sauce just didn't do it for me and also not worth the effort, so I ended up not using it and put a slice of provolone on them. I too cooked the veggies a little longer. Was definately nice to have a healthier version to choose from. Will make again.
raphaella526 Posted: 02/29/12
I thought this was a very good take on the original. A few tips for success: as others mentioned, meat needs to be very thin - freeze for at least 15 minutes. I also sauteed the veggie mixture longer than called for, I like the peppers soft, and I added more salt to taste. Fresh, soft hoagie rolls are essential. My husband didn't care for the provolone sauce, so since there wasn't a lot of it anyway I made a small batch of cheddar sauce using the same recipe framework and we both preferred that one. I served it with the tomato basil soup from the same issue (which also needed additional salt but was very good). I would make again but with cheddar sauce.
promogal Posted: 02/27/12
Simply outstanding! Loved the mushrooms & cheese sauce was delicious!
oduamy Posted: 02/26/12
I wanted this to be GREAT but it was just good. Agree that the meat needs to be PAPER thin. Also, my sauce was like melted marshmallows!? But the meat/veggie filling was good. Just needed a touch more salt and maybe some A1. I'll make this again and just lay some provolone slices over the top and skip the sauce.
Recabecabooboo Posted: 04/20/12
My husband LOVED this sandwich, MY modifications; add a little dry sherry to the vegi's as they simmered down, add a little more soy sauce and Worcestershire add some provolone to the sandwich. Personally I still felt it was a bit bland so I added horseradish to the left over cheese sauce and grilled the mixture on sourdough the second time around and thought it was great. Next time I will try marinating the meat first and will continue to add horseradish for me and leave it traditional for my hubby...with a few modifications for personal preference, it's a keeper!
natdem Posted: 06/22/12
Good recipe,but sauce was not good. It was not worth the effort or calories. Second time I made this, I just put provolone over the top and melted in the toaster oven and that was perfect. Will make again.
garys37 Posted: 02/29/12
Sounds good (3 stars, at least), but it's no Philly Cheesesteak (1 star, at best)! ALL the ingredients are wrong. And I can't see how you lightened it up that much. Please have more respect for the classics!
Laoruc Posted: 02/18/13
First thing I thought when reading the recipe in the magazine was uh yeah we're skipping the cheese sauce. Looks like I wasn't alone! Modified a bit for a picky eater and went with just onions. Used a bit more salt to season the meat, bit more Worcestershire sauce. Having a very sharp knife with the slightly frozen flank makes it a breeze to slice very thinly, not one bite was chewy (always a concern!). Overall a nice, relatively easy comfort meal. Could be a super fast weeknight meal if slicing the beef night before (where I usually burn most of the time) and season right before.
bellylaughing Posted: 03/05/12
Ok- so it's not authentic, but it's still AWESOME...with a few modifications. Here's my recipe along with an easy hoagie roll recipe (that was just right; soft and tender- not too "bready" or dense for this application). Also, I've listed Weight Watchers points for anyone who's interested. This is a great Friday night "flex points splurge meal"!! Enjoy! Awesome Philly Cheesesteak (adapted from Cooking Light) Serves 2 at 20 points each (this includes one roll per person at 7 points each) 8 oz. flank steak coarse salt and pepper 8 oz. button mushroom caps, sliced 2 tsp olive oil, divided half of a roasted red pepper, thinly sliced 1 large yellow onion, halved and thinly sliced 2 large cloves garlic 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce 1/2 tsp soy sauce 2 tsp all purpose flour 1/2 cup 2% milk 2 oz extra sharp white cheddar 1 oz. gruyere 2 tbsp parmigiano-reggiano 1/4 tsp dry mustard pinch of salt to taste dash of cayenne pepper 2 Easy homemade hoagie rolls (recipe follows)
AdrienneAdams Posted: 03/13/12
No, not authentic, but hits the spot. My spouse and I have made this twice now. The first time we made the cheese sauce, but felt it wasn't worth the work. The second time we used the broiler to melt provolone over the sandwiches and they turned out great! This is a fast and easy weeknight recipe.
beezer825 Posted: 03/20/13
Delicious. I have never had a true Philly Cheeseseak, that said this is so good and light too. Of course almost everything tastes better when it's loaded with fat and calories so I'm sure there is no comparing, but for a lighter version, its perfect. I really liked the cheese sauce I didn't find it time consuming or a waste. The sauciness made it easy to get some cheese in every bite. I recommend at least trying it.
AnthonyStephens Posted: 03/09/12
I have never had a traditional philly cheesesteak but I thought the meat was a little bland. I thought it was just missing a little something. I will cook again but I am going to make some changes nest time.
lbcookinglight Posted: 04/02/12
I agree with other reviewers that the meat mixture is quite good, but the cheese sauce isn't worth it. For leftovers I just let slices of provolone melt on top of the meat. Much better.
SoonerSinger Posted: 05/30/12
These are delicious, easy, and fast. I wouldn't serve them at a dinner party, but you could cut them into smaller portions and serve at a football game! My fiance requests these frequently!

Real Philadelphia Philly Cheese Steak Recipe http://bit.ly/phillycheesesteak
starby135 Posted: 07/03/12
Loved it! Took other people's advice and didn't make the sauce and just used provolone cheese.
daneanp Posted: 01/26/13
So I altered this slightly to make it easier - I used deli sliced roast beef and totally skipped step 1 and the first part of step 2 (which saves 1 teaspoon of olive oil). Starting with the 2nd teaspoon of olive oil and the onions, and then adding the sliced beef at the end to warm it. I omitted step 3 completely and instead topped the beef mixture with 1 oz sliced provolone per sandwich and broiled until the cheese melted. It was really tasty - though a little on the dry side. Might substitute a swipe of light mayo to replace the olive oil not used next time. Served with a mixed fruit salad. Very filling and very easy to make.
Hidfromu Posted: 01/21/13
Really great quick meal after a hard workout! Only I used chicken instead of beef, otherwise followed recipe exactly.
SarahSaunders Posted: 10/30/12
This was so easy to make and my Husband loved it! Was outside of our normal chicken and fish routine and still within calories, so he appreciated it. I served with salad.
cjaquilia Posted: 06/27/13
i have been making my cheese steaks for years with almost the same recipe cept i have never made a cheese sauce, just melted in whatever cheese i felt like in the pan with the mushrooms, onions, steak, worc, and soy. i get rave reviews!
LizGPlus3 Posted: 01/21/14
We LOVED this! I snuck this idea in on them and at first it was sighs but after the first bite everyone was hooked and this is now a part of our cookbook!!
ddd581 Posted: 02/18/14
This isn't a real philly cheesesteak! We use top round sliced thin and chopped. The cheese sauce is too fake......use real provolone cheese. Too many unnecessary ingredients. Somethings are better left alone....or rename.

Is Agglomeration really good for Growth? Global Efficiency, Interregional Equity and Uneven Growth
AbstractAccording to NEG literature (Baldwin et al. (2004)), spatial concentration of industrial activities increases growth at the regional and aggregate level without generating regional growth differentials. This view is not supported by the data. We extend the canonical model with an additional sector producing non-tradable goods which benefits from localized knowledge spillovers coming from the R&D performing industrial sector. This view, motivated by the evidence, generates both an anti-growth and a pro-growth effect of agglomeration for both the deindustrializing and the industrializing regions and leads to two novel results - 1) when agglomeration takes place, growth is lower in the periphery; 2) agglomeration may have a negative effect on the growth rate of real income, both at the regional and at the aggregate level. Our conclusions have relevant policy implications - contrary to the standard view, current EU and US regional policies favouring industrial dispersion might be welfare-improving both at the regional and the aggregate level and may reduce regional income disparities.

Voters have shown a keen interest in the Superintendent of Education race here in South Carolina.
The historic election now places Tom Thompson, the state's first black Democratic nominee for education superintendent, against Republican choice Molly Spearman and American party representative Ed Murray. The candidates have very different views on how to improve the quality of education around the state and, most notably, the issue of rewriting Common Core.
"I'm opposed to Washington coming in and really coercing us to participate," Spearman said. "I think it's really important for us to fix this quickly as the legislature has taught us to do. So, that would be my first priority -- to review and rewrite the South Carolina standards using the best and brightest teachers in our state."
Meanwhile, Thompson believes that Common Core could have its benefits if adjusted properly.
"I don't know that Common Core has a downside other than the perspective that we are tied into what other states are doing," Thompson said. "I think Common Core has the flexibility for each state to decided how they're going to take the standards that are recommended and make them their own."
Both candidates have spent most of their respective careers in classrooms as teachers. Thompson believes that the education system needs more funding especially for teacher pay raises.
"We have to make sure we have those outstanding teachers in every classroom, in every school, in every district," Thompson said.
Spearman supported Gov. Haley's education reform plan as she stressed that the state's education system isn't as bad as many think.
"I think Governor Haley's plan went a long way with the poverty waiting," Spearman said. "Now, students in poverty, those districts will get a 20 percent increase in funding. Let's focus on the good things and try to replicate it."
Ed Murray could not be reached for comment as he is currently traveling to Canada. All three candidates will face off in November's general election.

Tron (1982) Revisited
As we all know the next big thing to hit theaters will be ?Tron Legacy?. So I thought it would be a good time to revisit the original. Many people today have never seen it or don?t remember it.
I definitely remembered it but it had been awhile and it deserved another look. This movie is visually spectacular. In fact, even today, while some aspects look dated, the ?wow? factor still rivals that of modern movies. No film before it, or since, used these exact techniques. But despite all of its technological wonder and originality, it is a flawed masterpiece. Although I didn?t notice it as a kid, this film borrows heavily from many films before it. It also may not even be as good at telling those stories. But even though it borrows from other films, likewise, many films have since borrowed heavily from ?Tron?. Let?s take a look!
First-time viewers as well as the casual moviegoer may not ?get? what is going on in this film. Like many great science fiction films, such as ?Blade Runner?, ?Akira?, and ?2001″, multiple viewings may be necessary for many in order to fully understand the film. What is interesting about it in this case, is that the story on paper is not that confusing. Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges), the good guy, is an ex-employee at EMCOM, where he designed many now successful video games. Ed Dillinger (David Warner), the bad guy, stole those programs and took credit for them. As a result, Dillinger is now the rich head of the company, while Flynn runs a small arcade. Flynn wants to find evidence to prove he was the inventor of the games, so some friends help him get inside, but meanwhile Dillinger?s program the MCP Master Control Program has run amok, absorbing other programs all around the world to make itself more powerful. Eventually the MCP uses a prototype laser, that deconstructs physical objects and puts them in a computer, to put Flynn himself into this digital computer world. There Flynn is put into a sort of Gladiator system with other programs, including a friendly security program named ?Tron?, to play games in or order to survive. I don?t want to ruin the movie for you, in case you haven?t seen it, but that?s the basic setup.
So just from what I wrote about the Gladiator system you should be able to summize one big influence. Come on you can do it. It?s a movie with Gladiators in it! OK?if you said ?Gladiator? then I would like for you to explain to me why the creators of ?Tron? invented a time machine, traveled to the future, all in order to watch a stupid Russell Crowe movie. No the correct answer is ?Spartacus?, or another possible answer would be just the actual history of Gladiators. In any case, I caught myself thinking about ?Spartacus? often, while re-watching this film. A prisoner, forced to fight for survival, organizes his fellow inmates and starts a rebellion against massive odds. In fact, the original tagline for the film was ?The Electronic Gladiator?. The light cycle scenes reminded me of another film about the same time period, ?Ben Hur?. The chariot battles were in a way very similar to the light cycle game found in ?Tron?.
There are multiple other references I could speak of but the one which I cannot ignore is ?The Wizard of Oz?. Although you could argue just about every film made since has been inspired by it, the inspiration is more obvious in this film. The ?computer world? in this movie is a fantastically different place and colored in a totally different manner. Oz anybody? Not only that, in ?The Wizard of Oz? the Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Lion, are all played by actors who played other characters back in Kansas. They were the 3 farm hands back where Dorothy lived. In ?Tron?, the programs resemble their real world ?Users?. So Flynn?s real-world friends join him in the ?Oz? world but as different characters. One big giveaway is that the Master Control Program pretty much looks just like the actual Wizard from Oz. I?ve put the two side-by-side here to show you what I mean:
To be fair, there are just as many instances as movies taking FROM ?Tron?. We might as well get ?The Matrix? out-of-the-way, since it is the obvious example. The whole idea of a digital world that people go inside of is clear. Also more apparent in the Matrix sequels, are examples of ?programs? taking the shape of walking-talking people. In ?Tron? Flynn is able to use his power as a ?User? to manipulate his surroundings, putting back together broken vehicles. The guy next to him basically says ?You?re not supposed to be able to do that!?. Well how many times did I hear people say that in ?The Matrix? every time Neo manipulated his surroundings in the digital world. The Wachowski brothers were obviously ?Tron? fans because the look of their next film ?Speed Racer?, though not an exact ripoff by any means, was most certainly influenced by the 1982 film.
?Tron? was a visually groundbreaking film. Although contrary to popular-belief, the vast majority of the effects were made with a type of traditional animation rather than computer-based. But it did indeed push the boundaries of computer-based effects in film. It has become a staple of our society whether people are aware of it or not. Its look has influenced both film, television, and video games alike. However, the difficulty in shooting such a groundbreaking effects-based film by a first-time director may have been the culprit that led to a confusing story. It is as I said, a flawed-masterpiece, but a masterpiece nonetheless. It will go down in the history of film, alongside the films that it was influenced by, and the films that it influenced. Well maybe not ?Speed Racer? but you know what I mean. Here?s hoping the sequel does the original justice!

A statement released this evening by the House Ethics Committee's chairman and ranking member reveals that the panel has decided to investigate allegations against Rep. Vern Buchanan (R-FL). Buchanan has been accused of encouraging a business partner to file a false affidavit related to illegal campaign contributions. The statement says that to gather more facts, "the Committee will review the matter." Last night, a Tampa Bay television station aired a story highlighting these and other ethical allegations against the third-term Congressman. Despite Majority Leader Eric Cantor's promised "zero-tolerance" policy on ethical scandals, Buchanan continues to serve on the powerful House Ways and Means Committee.

LAS VEGAS -- Las Vegas is getting a brand new hospital that will create hundreds of jobs and fulfill a great need in the valley.
There will be a groundbreaking ceremony Wednesday for the new Mountain's Edge Hospital near Durango Drive and Patrick Lane.
What is now a desert lot will soon be home to southern Nevada's newest medical building.
"Mountain's Edge will be a 130-bed post acute hospital," said William Fox, the executive director for Horizon Speciality Hospital.
Fox says the hospital will be a 75,000 square foot facility.
"It's a hospital designed to handle about 80 to 85 percent of medical requirements of acute care patients. It doesn't handle emergency services," Fox said.
Construction on Mountain's Edge Hospital is expected to last about one year. Bentar Construction will hire people to do the construction work. Once the hospital opens, it's expected about 300 medical professionals will be hired.
Jeremy Aguero, a principal analyst with Applied Analysis says southern Nevada has been under served in health care for a while and the new hospital will fill a void in the community.
Southern Nevada is home to roughly 30 hospitals of different sizes, but for a population of 2 million, more are needed.
"As a matter of fact, we only have about 65 percent of the health care infrastructure that we should for a community of our size. If you look at the Kaiser Health Statistics, we have too few doctors, too few nurses, and we have for a very long time," Aguero said.
Wednesday's groundbreaking is also a symbol that the economy -- once in critical condition -- is on the mend.
"The fact that more of those services are starting up again is not only good for us from a healthcare perspective, but good for us from a general economic perspective," Aguero said because it's a signal that Las Vegas is out of that recession and into that recovery.
Mountain's Edge Hospital is ready to expand healthcare choices in the Las Vegas valley.
"There is a demand. We're expanding to meet the need of the patient population that we serve," Fox said.
The hospital is expected to open at the end of 2014.

The notion of BMO Field as the future home of the Toronto Argonauts has been shelved as Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment prepares to invest in refurbishing the facility in time for next summer's Pan-Am Games without a retrofit for Canadian football.
In April, Toronto city council approved a plan to invest $10 million in a $120 million expansion, contingent on the provincial and federal governments kicking in $10 million each as well. That plan included expanding the stadium to accommodate CFL football, with the Argos hoping to move in as soon as next season.
That stadium deal was put together at the same time that Argo owner David Braley was negotiating to sell the Argos to either MLSE or its largest individual shareholder, Larry Tanenbaum.
However, with the provincial and federal governments yet to sign onto the deal, and time running out, MLSE is now focused on upgrading and repairing the facility under its current configurations, with an emphasis on getting it ready for next summer's Pan-Am Games when it will host the Rugby Sevens competition.
The state of eight-year-old BMO Field is apparently such that it is in need of significant upgrades to such things as the field, locker rooms, concourse areas and suites as well, all in time for the Pan-Am Games.
Tuesday's news comes as a blow to the Argonauts, who appeared destined to move into BMO either under new ownership or with Braley negotiating a lease with MLSE. However, just where the Argos fit into the BMO picture now is unclear.
"If in fact there are continued modifications to BMO and if in fact the Argos do not ever find a home there, it would be very disappointing," said Argo president Chris Rudge, "given that when the field was originally built there were discussions of the Argos playing there."
While the possibility of an Argo sale to Tanenbaum or MLSE is not dead, according to a source, it has gone from being a priority to something that would depend on another phase of stadium expansion being approved.
The Argos have been asked to vacate the Rogers Centre - their home since 1989 - after the 2017 season so that the Toronto Blue Jays may consider installing natural grass into the facility.
MLSE will take a plan to city council next month to spend $80 million upgrading amenities in the stadium, asking for permission to spend the $10 million of city dollars on that project that was granted for the larger vision in April.
MLSE's plan had been to expand BMO Field to accommodate CFL football as well as such things as larger soccer events and an NHL outdoor hockey game. However, all of those things are now dependent on another phase of stadium reconstruction, beyond the one expected to take place over the next year.
Braley, who bought the BC Lions back in 1997, became sole owner of the Argonuats before the 2010 season. There has been speculation that part of Tanenbaum's desire to see the Argos move into BMO is fueled by a desire to ease the NFL's concerns in advance of a possible relocation of the Buffalo Bills to Toronto.
However, with it being highly unlikely the Bills can move anywhere before 2020, there may be less desire, from Tanenbaum's perspective, to buy or acccomodate the Argos.

ARLINGTON, TX - DECEMBER 02: Nick Foles #9 of the Philadelphia Eagles celebrates a touchdown against the Dallas Cowboys in the third quarter at Cowboys Stadium on December 2, 2012 in Arlington, Texas. (Photo by Ronald Martinez/Getty Images)
The Eagles lost, again. They blew coverages, again. They gave up turnovers, again. They fired a coach, again. And yet, Sunday night in Dallas could have been much worse: the Eagles could have won.
Exactly a year ago, this team was in a similar place. At 4-8, their future was bleak. We started looking toward 2013, anticipating the changes in the offseason. But it wasn't to be. The Eagles rattled off four "fool's gold" wins to end the season at 8-8. They didn't fire Andy Reid, or get started on the much-needed reboot. They didn't have a shot at getting a once-in-a-decade talent like Robert Griffin III.
I hate the Cowboys as much as the next guy, and these losses are painful. But let me tell you, it's better this way. There's nothing to be gained by winning any more, only by losing.
The important thing is evaluating players for 2013 and beyond. And to that end, we're learning a lot:

Link Ink: The Mandarin's Short, Hello Kitty's Mech In Action And 'Spirited Away' In 'Minecraft'
Click through for Thursday's freshest links.
Click through for Thursday's freshest links.
Yet another of Sailor Moon's Sailor Senshi is set to get immortalized action figure style in Bandai's S.H. Figuarts line. Sailor Venus is set to follow Sailors Moon, Mercury, Mars and Jupiter with a new action figure in May, complete with her white cat Artemis and her alternate masked "Sailor V" ensemble.
The blue-est Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger will be joining several of his action figure teammates in May. The Blue/Tricera Ranger that's been teased at conventions for the better part of the past year is now available for preorder through the Bandai Premium shop in Japan for 3,780 Yen (about $37 USD) and should surely follow suit through Bluefin Tamashii Nations before long.
Following the current season of the dance/gun/dinosaur-themed Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger, Toei will launch its 38th Super Sentai series, Ressha Sentai Tokkyuger. It's all about trains! Train track helmets, railroad crossing chest motifs, a giant combined train mech known as the TokkyuOh, electronic train ticket device morphers called Tokkyu Chargers -- this show looks like it's going to be the right kind off the rails.
Bandai's Tamashii Nations toys look stellar at conventions when Bluefin displays its wares, and that has as much to do with the toys themselves as it does their unique environments. Come April, even the most casual collectors will be able to come closer to achieving the same level of display detail on their own with new stand bases from the Tamashii Stage line.
Make your Monday with lots of links, after the jump.
Bandai's AvP S.H. MonsterArts debuted a few months back at SDCC 2013, but the Bluefin Tamashii Nations booth had a brand-new Predator Wolf figure and plenty of new Xenomorph and Predator accessories alike on hand for New York Comic Con. Aliens will get to fire the figurative opening volley in the 7" toy war with the Predators, with the Alien Warrior (from 2004's AvP) figure arriving in February for $57, with the Predator Wolf (from 2007's Aliens vs Predator: Requiem) following in March for $59. The $2 price difference seems like it's due to the mild accessory discrepancy between the figures. For it's part, the Alien comes packed with an egg, a hatchling, a huge tail, and an optional inner-mouth part. The Predator Wolf features a face with a horrifying extended jaw, plus a diecast mask and a host of spears and other weapons. Click through for a closer look at both AvP S.H. MonsterArts.
Bandai's full S.H. Figuarts line based on the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Japanese Super Sentai counterpart Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger was more or less locked-in this past summer at San Diego Comic-Con, but it's nice to see the Bluefin Tamashii Nations booth confirm that MMPR fans will be getting a female version of the Yellow Ranger aka Trini Kwan. The 6" hyper-articulated figure was shown alongside the rest of the team, including the soon-to-be-released Black Ranger and to-be-scheduled Blue Ranger. Figurats prototypes are frequently shown as teasers and occasionally don't make it to market at conventions, but with the team's fully-assembled Power Blaster on display combining all of their trademark weapons, fans can count on being able to get their hands on the full lineup before the end of 2014. You can see all of the current and upcoming Power Rangers S.H. Figuarts toys after the jump.
Your Mighty Morphin Power Rangers action figures may soon be joined by a Megazord that's slightly more to-scale. Bandai America has a two-foot-tall "Jumbo Megazord" on display at booth 1628 at New York Comic Con, which dwarfs the 10" Legacy Megazord. Since the toy is currently "under consideration" and not fully announced, for now it's just represented by a prototype that lacks articulation and paint apps. Bandai did, however, include an image of the Megazord morphed into "tank mode," so it's safe to assume if it does get made, it will function similarly to the Legacy model, which combines all five individual Power Ranger Zords. You can check out photos of the potential Jumbo Megazord toy from Bandai, after the jump.
This past summer at San Diego Comic-Con, Tamashii Nations teased S.H. Figuarts based on NetherRealm's DC fighting game Injustice: Gods Among Us with but a sign. Now at New York Comic Con 2013, Batman has broken the silence with a blank 6" prototype demonstrating the upcoming line's precision sculpting and articulation. It's still early to tell just how posable, colorful and accessorized this line will be based on a lone unpainted Batman toy, but given the die-cast and resin construction, detailed sculpts and accessory-packed nature associated of the S.H. Figuarts line, Batman fans who're cool with his Injustice duds can probably expect a something comparable to what they've seen before from Bandai with other licenses. You can get a look at the upcoming 2014 release after the cut.

Gatlinburg, TN is a heavily visited tourist destination that is famous for its Smoky Mountain weddings. Near the border of North Carolina, over nine million people a year come to Gatlinburg and the surrounding area for fun, shopping, and endless amount of outdoor activities. A few hour drive from many metropolitan areas, such as Atlanta, Charlotte, and Nashville make it a great place for a weekend vacation. Many come for a weekend and end up buying their very own cabin.
When planning, you will find many Gatlinburg wedding packages that are available. Some of these are low priced, while others go up in more expensive territory. Choosing a wedding package is completely up to the individual couple and their wants and needs. There are many styles of ceremony to choose from, namely; cabin weddings, outdoor weddings, waterfall weddings, and themed weddings. Themed weddings make for an interesting time and are great for the non-traditionalist type of people.
A cabin wedding takes place inside (or outside) your Smoky Mountain Rental Cabin. They tend to be the most affordable choice, while still offering affordability, privacy, and romance. For the outdoor enthusiasts, outdoor ceremonies provide you with a way to enjoy nature at its finest in the quaint and gorgeous Smoky Mountains and Smoky Mountains National Park.
For that perfect extra touch, adding wedding photography to your ceremony ensures that you will have countless memories to keep as time goes on. It's really no wonder why Gatlinburg wedding packages are such a popular choice when it comes to Smoky Mountain weddings.

With a mayoral runoff election looming next Tuesday, SoundDiego wanted to ask Democrat David Alvarez and Republican Kevin Faulconer the important questions: What radio stations do you listen to? Who's your favorite rapper? What musical acts do you love nobody would guess you like? And, most important: Do you watch SoundDiego TV?

...what would you do? what would you risk? what would you take? what would be left behind? what would be You?
I play my life safe, stay in the boundary, do the hard works that normally get you to places. I stay in one place, minimize the travel, save what can be saved, cook at home, wear decent clothing, drive used car, rent apartment nothing exotic. I study late at school, workout in school gym, play game online, pirate movies, listen to internet radio, things that don't cost. I socialize in school clubs but deny fraternity membership, volunteer but avoid parties, I trade the risk of having drinking, smoking, drug-abusing, sex addicting problems to have a conservative circle of friends, people who I drink coffee with but hardly visit or invite over.
but if I could start over
many things may stay the same because there are certain values that I want to keep. but i wanna go places where i dont know the language, read magazines by looking photos, eat things that give me stomachache. major not in engineering but piano, worry not about how to make money but be a freelance architect with "pure design focus". paint graffiti on my one room studio walls, owns a $4000 stereo system (thats how much my car costs). go to school in daytime, breakdance at night. wake up one day at age 30, no house, no career, no wife, no life, and write a masterpiece and die.
No, Im kidding, but what would you do? :")
