Dioner Navarro and the Chicago Cubs capitalized on a pair of Pittsburgh Pirates errors to earn a 4-3 win in 11 innings in the rubber match of a three-game series.
After Russell Martin's throwing error put a runner on third with no outs in the 11th, Navarro sent a deep fly ball to right field to score Anthony Rizzo and win the game.
Starling Marte hit a two-out, game-tying home run in the ninth inning for the Pirates, who lost their second straight game after winning 11 of their previous 13.
Rizzo and Alfonso Soriano started the bottom of the 11th with a pair of opposite-field singles. Luis Valbuena looked to bunt the runners to second and third, but Martin tried to catch Rizzo straying from second. His pickoff went wide into center field, however, and allowed both runners to advance.
Bryan Morris (4-3) intentionally walked Valbuena to load the bases for Navarro, who entered as a pinch-hitter. Navarro got down to two strikes, but hit a slider sharply to right field where Jose Tabata made the catch, but the ball was deep enough to plate Rizzo.
Matt Guerrier (3-4) earned his first win with the Cubs after tossing two scoreless innings in relief.
Chicago jumped in front early with some help from Pittsburgh.
Pitcher Carlos Villanueva started the bottom of the third inning with a base hit and moved to third when Starlin Castro slammed a double to the right-field gap. Villanueva scored and Castro moved to third when Pirates first baseman Garrett Jones mishandled Rizzo's ground ball, and Soriano took advantage of the miscue and scored Castro with a sacrifice fly.
Pittsburgh cut the lead in half in the fourth, when Tabata and Andrew McCutchen delivered back-to-back doubles, then tied the game in the fifth. Tabata hit a double just past Soriano's outstretched glove and off the base of the left-field wall to score Marte, who reached base on a fielder's choice.
Scott Hairston hit a pinch-hit home run well past the center-field wall to give the Cubs a 3-2 lead in the seventh.
Marte fouled off a pair of two-strike pitches before crushing a sinker over the left-field wall to tie the game at 3-3 in the ninth and hand Kevin Gregg his second blown save this season.

We are showing you the UK version of our site: would you prefer a different location?
I am a visitor here myself
I don't speak a word of Japanese, it turns out that it didn't really matter. This past weekend at the Tokyo Cycle Mode Exhibition confirmed what I suspected – riders are riders and we can all "talk cycling", even if we don't fully understand one another.
While Daisuke and his crew of friends and Yonretto riders manned the most handsome booth at the show, I talked with local riders and learned.
For instance, I found out that Damiano Cunego is a hero in Japan. The Japanese seem to love all Italians actually, as proven by the hour-long lines to test ride Pinarellos and De Rosas at the show.
Fashion shows at bike shows don't mix. Doesn't matter what country really. Somehow break-dancing in helmet and kit always seems like a good idea at the time. It's not.
Finally, it seems that one way to thank your wife for all of her support leading up to and over the weekend of the show, is to honor her by dressing like her. Mari and Daisuke looked every bit ready for the Gavia on the last day of the show.

Glucosamine: Does it protect cartilage in osteoarthritis?
By Mayo Clinic staffOriginal Article: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/glucosamine/AN00619

Can glucosamine supplements protect my knee cartilage from osteoarthritis?
from April Chang-Miller, M.D.
Glucosamine is a natural compound in your body that helps make your cartilage strong and rigid. In Europe, glucosamine is a prescription drug with a standardized formula. In the United States and some parts of Asia, glucosamine is sold over the counter as a dietary supplement.
Many people regularly take glucosamine to protect cartilage, as well as to help manage osteoarthritis pain. In theory, some of the glucosamine in dietary supplements makes its way from your digestive tract to damaged joints, where it reinforces worn cartilage. But research has never demonstrated this effect.
Studies randomly assigning people with knee arthritis to two or three years of treatment with glucosamine or placebo have found that the rate of cartilage loss — measured as narrowing of space in the knee joint on X-rays over time — has been about the same in both groups.
Some experts consider glucosamine supplements harmless. If you're already being treated for arthritis, though, talk to your doctor before you take glucosamine or any other dietary supplement.

Brighton & Hove Albion v Newcastle United
The FA Cup with Budweiser

Winning club receives £67,500 from The FA's prize fund

By Nicholas Veevers
Brighton boss Gus Poyet is hoping his FA Cup record against Newcastle United can continue on Saturday in the weekend's first tie.
The Uruguayan led his side to a Fourth Round victory over the Magpies last season and was also a thorn in their side during his playing days with Chelsea and Spurs.
He scored two goals against them for Chelsea in the Semi-Final of 2000 at Wembley, before helping the Blues to win The Cup against Aston Villa a few months later.
And now Poyet's Championship high-fliers take on Newcastle at the Amex Stadium for a place in the Fourth Round.
He exclusively told FATV: "First and most, they are a fantastic club and every time I've played against them, especially in the north-east, the atmosphere is unbelievable.
"I was lucky enough to have the chance to score a few goals against them so my relationship with the Newcastle fans is probably a little bit of hate from them, but I'm sure that they like me as well.
"When you play against a team and you do so well, there are a few who probably like you, or they would like you to play for them!"
Poyet also believes The FA Cup is best cup competition in the world, so wants his side to progress as far as possible.
After a career with clubs in Uruguay, Spain and England, he's experienced numerous football competitions but admits winning The Cup with Chelsea stands out.
"When you are a foreigner watching English football and you see that red carpet and the managers with the big flower, any player who comes to England is thinking that if they're lucky enough, they will be able to play once in The FA Cup Final," he added.
"So to be able to play in one and win it is even better.
"I say this coming from Uruguay, where there is no cup and from Spain where there is the Copa Del Rey, but The FA Cup is the greatest cup in the world."
Last season's tie between the clubs saw a narrow victory for Brighton thanks to a Mike Williamson own goal, so Alan Pardew's side will want to avenge that.
And Poyet admits that another match against Newcastle wasn't exactly the tie that he was looking for in December's Third Round draw.
He added: "When you are not in the Premier League, you want to play against every single one of them, but at different times.
"But it's going to be difficult and I'm sure the Newcastle players will want to come here and show they are better than us, because they are better than us."
Watch the full and exclusive interview with Poyet in the Media Gallery above, in which he also talks about his management career and his FA Cup memories with Chelsea.

Comments about The North Face TKA 100 Microvelour Pants - Women's Short:
I absolutely loved these pants, my new favorite, until they came unsewn at the pocket area. The hole is located on the left buttock area, so it's very noticeable. I had only had them about 3 weeks. I washed them 3 times and dried them on a drying rack, so it was not from abuse. I loved that these were so soft and warm. They feel awesome against your skin. I'm broken-hearted and hope that I can find someone to repair them. I know that the way the seam is put together, that any repair is going to be bulky and noticeable, but at least I can wear them around the house. I'm surprised because I thought North Face was the benchmark in quality. Not sure I'll be spending the extra money on their brand again.
Service and delivery comments:
This negative review has nothing to do with the service I received from REI. They were perfect in every way! The pants were a great price and they arrived very quickly. It's not their fault that the product was not sewn in a sturdy manner. I have not contacted customer service about this issue. Maybe I should have?
Best Uses
Comments about The North Face TKA 100 Microvelour Pants - Women's Short:
I purchased these pants to wear over exercise clothes in the winter and they function well for that. They are warm, soft and easy to put on and take off. The fit is a little large so they are loose through the hips and legs.
Best Uses
Comments about The North Face TKA 100 Microvelour Pants - Women's Short:
I'm a size 6, wear a 27" in jeans, and am 5'5" tall. I have this pant in the Medium Short/Petite. The short (29.5") inseam works perfectly for me because I wear them low and loose on the hips. Keeping the drawstring tied, I can pull them on and off wihtout having to untie it. They washed perfectly on "delicate" in the machine and after hanging to dry they kept the original lofty fleecy goodness. Also, surprisingly warm to wear outside on chilly mornings, but not too hot in the house. They're baggy but not clowny.
Best Uses
Comments about The North Face TKA 100 Microvelour Pants - Women's Short:
I use this product to wear home from the gym after showering and under waterproof rain pants to stay warm when riding a motorcycle in cold weather. I also use it just to relax at home.
Best Uses
Comments about The North Face TKA 100 Microvelour Pants - Women's Short:
I ordered small/short in these pants and they are way too long and way too wide in the leg. I am 5'2" and petites usually fit me, but not these. I may attempt to re-sew them to fit, but for [$] it seems like I should not have to take the time and effort. Might just return them. Still wondering how the designers think that a wide leg pant could possibly keep anyone warm - the air can get up in the legs and freeze you. Why else would I want polartec pants? I expected better from TNF.
Best Uses
Comments about The North Face TKA 100 Microvelour Pants - Women's Short:
The 'new and improved' fleece is most certainly new, but so not improved. I have been buying these pants for years. The change this year is not for the better. I will keep them because I have a hard time finding things in a short inseam, but they are not the high quality of the north face that I have come to expect.
Service and delivery comments:
As always, REI is prompt with delivery and has never shipped me the wrong items.

But speculation high that protests will be filed
Northrop Grumman Corp. beat some of the leading companies in the government information technology space to capture the IT infrastructure contract for the Homeland Security Department's new headquarters campus. Five companies competed for the 10-year contract, but sources said the closest competition was between General Dynamics Corp. and Northrop. Other bidders included Lockheed Martin, L-3 Communications and Serco Inc., sources said.
Northrop wins $2.6B pact for IT at new DHS headquarters
Spokespersons for those companies either declined to comment or did not return phone calls or e-mails requesting comment. One source said the expectation is that General Dynamics will protest the award because of the background it has in managing large IT infrastructure work that involve construction projects. General Dynamics has been the prime contractor for the Pentagon renovation since 1998. It also recently won a $146.2 million contract to support the Defense Department's Washington Headquarters Services, which is locating to a new building as part of the Base Realignment and Closure Act. Northrop Grumman had not issued a statement on the win and was referring inquiries to DHS. The General Services Administration awarded the contract for DHS as a task order under the Alliant contract. DHS is consolidating its headquarters and the leadership of its component agencies to the St. Elizabeths Hospital campus in Southeast Washington. DHS will be using about 200 acres of the site for its campus.

Nick, Wow! Big award. Is it true that GSA has yet to give official notice to the losing bidders? This I have heard from multiple sources. Why would that be? Was the procurement run by GSA National Capital Region or FEDSIM? I have heard both and I am confused.

My toenails are not "black" and they are not falling off, but I do have three that are discolored or bruised. Are my shoes too small? What else might cause this?

Do they hurt while you're running, or at all?
So I'm currently sitting with a bag of frozen corn in my ass.
No. They don't hurt, but maybe I do feel it a bit. I have about 80 miles on these shoes and I just noticed it this week.
Most likely your shoes are too small. As a general rule for running shoes, you want about 1/2 inch between the end of the shoe and the end of your longest toe. That's normally about a thumbnail's length. Your foot will never move backwards in the shoe.
You also want enough room in the toebox for your toes to move laterally a little. Not sloshing around, but enough room for foot expansion.
I get that all the time and my shoes are not too small. With me, after a while, the nail falls off. But another nail has usually grown under before that happens. There is no pain, it's just not pretty. But who cares? I wouldn't worry about it unless you feel a certain discomfort.

Cornwall Half-Marathon, 1:35, April 27th 2013
Yes, I thought I had that. My running shoes are a full size bigger than my regular shoes. Perhaps I need to go 1.5 bigger?
I'm sporting one right now...a memento from the Davis HM. No pain here either. I just figured it comes with the territory, right?
Jack, could be that you tied it too loose or maybe your socks..

That used to happen to me when my shoes were too small, but it's possible you could be wearing the right size and maybe the toe box just isn't shaped right for your foot. I can wear my correct size in Nike Free's, but the way that particular shoe fits just doesn't work for me and gives me a blood blister on my big toe. So maybe next time you're looking for shoes try a different brand or model with a differently shaped toe box.
Mile 5:49 - 5K 19:58 - 10K 43:06 - HM 1:36:54
It happens. I tried bigger shoes, different shoes, different socks etc but eventually I just accepted having ugly feet. After dealing with a real injury, black toenails are really not a big deal to me.
I have this now on 2 toenails on my left foot. It started after my most recent pair of Asics. I assume it's just a slightly more narrow toe box, or they fit a little more snug than other shoes. They're a 12, and I consistently wear 12's across the board without issue most of the time.
Sometimes I have noticed that back when I did train for marathons, I would have that happen and it was usually just a result of my feet slipping forward and hitting the toe box, particularly because I run a lot of hills where I live (hard to avoid). You might try lace locking the ankles to hold your forefoot in place better if you are sure the sizing is correct. That seemed to help me out.
You might try lace locking the ankles to hold your forefoot in place better if you are sure the sizing is correct. That seemed to help me out.
how tight is too tight when doing this?
I rotate two pairs of shoes and one feels good locked in and the other hurts after a few miles and that pain transfers somewhere else.
"Failing to prepare is preparing to fail."
"Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right."
I'm in the camp of "don't worry about it unless it hurts."
Short term goal: 17:59 5K
Mid term goal: 2:54:59 marathon
Long term goal: To say I've been a runner half my life. (I started running at age 45).
The more I run, the more toe nail issues I have. It never matters how my shoes fit, and my record for black toes at 1 time is 8. I have webbed toes as it is so dont get any compliments.

Brass Balls and the Packers Defense
If using almost all of his draft picks on defensive players wasn't enough of a warning, Ted Thompson could re-enact Alec Baldwin's brass balls speech from Glengarry Glen Ross on the first day of training camp if he feels the Packers defense hasn't gotten the message.
Replace Cadillac with a spot on the roster. Replace steak knives with a spot on the end of the bench. Replace getting fired with getting cut.
Message received.
Of course, this message doesn't need to be delivered to everyone on defense. Clay Matthews is probably the Alec Baldwin of the Packers D. He can point to his $975,000 watch and automatically command respect. Desmond Bishop and Charles Woodson can point to their own watches, which aren't quite as big as Matthews', but are impressive nonetheless.
Because of their ineptitude last season and infusion of new blood for the upcoming season, the following defenders who received regular playing time in 2011 could be on the chopping block. They'll have to prove during training camp that they have the "brass balls" to play in the NFL.
Jarius Wynn
After a strong start, Wynn disappeared and became just another guy (who couldn't get to the quarterback) on the defensive line.
C.J. Wilson
Did Wilson make any memorable plays last season? He's another guy you can add to the just-another-guy list.

Merchandising That Amplifies The Brand Story
Nikki Baird recently wrote an article for RSR talking about brands as storytellers and the importance of setting in conveying a sense of what a brand stands for. Sometimes this task can seem pretty straightforward. The example she used was Tommy Bahama with stores and restaurants that convey a relaxed, casual, beach lifestyle. Communicating that kind of brand story dictates some obvious natural-looking choices of design and materials in creating the environment.
Improve Customer Satisfaction And Reduce Shrink
Most people don't realize how many choices there are when it comes to designing a label or tag. Even the simplest of features can be cost-effective and can make a big impact in improving the overall retail store environment from back-office to customer experience. This white paper focuses on several features that can reduce shrink and improve customer satisfaction.

CLEANING UP THE ACT: Calpine Corp. is set to build the first U.S. power plant with federal limits on greenhouse gas emissions in California.

Calpine Corp. is poised to build the first U.S. power plant with federal limits on greenhouse gas emissions in California after clearing a final regulatory hurdle today.
The Bay Area Air Quality Management District granted the Houston-based utility its final air quality permit today, allowing the company to proceed with the planned construction of a 600-megawatt natural gas-fired Russell City Energy Center. The 15-acre project site is in Hayward, just east of the San Francisco Bay.
The Russell City plant will produce 50 percent fewer greenhouse gas emissions than even the most advanced coal-fired plants, Calpine said, and will emit 25 percent fewer heat-trapping gases than the California Public Utilities Commission's standard. Construction on the facility plant is expected to begin later this year.
"We applaud the BAAQMD and Calpine for going beyond existing federal law and being the first in the nation to require an enforceable greenhouse gas limit," said Linda Adams, secretary of the California EPA. "This action furthers efforts at a statewide level to balance our economic needs while meeting our environmental challenges."
The Prevention of Significant Deterioration, or PSD, permit was issued with an eye on greenhouse gas restrictions set to be implemented in California in less than two years. The state's Air Resources Board is still in the process of putting together rules for a cap-and-trade market intended to help cut greenhouse gases to 1990 levels by 2020; that market goes live Jan. 1, 2012.
Utilities like Calpine will most likely be participants in that market, though it is unclear how permits issued before the advent of the market might be counted under a regulated regime. Calpine is also promoting the project as a means to help achieve the state's 33 percent renewable power standard by 2020, claiming gas-fired plants would back up intermittent sources like wind and solar. So-called peaker plants, which only run when demand is highest, are often older and powered by coal.
Calpine spokeswoman Norma Dunn said the company intends to run the Russell plant as baseload generation, selling its power to Pacific Gas & Electric Co. Terms of that deal were not disclosed.
When asked how a baseload plant could be considered "backup" power to wind and solar, Dunn said PG&E will retain the ability to use gas-fired generation when solar and wind are unavailable.
"They have dispatching rights, and they will balance the supply from Russell City with all of their other energy sources, including power from our own geothermal assets," Dunn said. "When they have contracts for wind or solar, they will need other supply sources to fill in during periods when their renewable supplies are not available."
The Calpine permit is coming against the backdrop of rising political pressure to suspend California's climate law, A.B. 32. Voters will most likely get to decide for themselves this fall whether climate regulations should go forward, as opponents of A.B. 32 are in the process of gathering signatures to place on the November ballot a measure that would tie the law to high unemployment levels. If the measure makes it onto the ballot, and voters approve it, California could see its climate law delayed until unemployment dips below 5.5 percent.

Building Bears & Bowling......week-a-boo.
Saturday afternoon called for hot cocoa. It was rainy, dreary & muggy. It was definitely not cold.....but the look of the evening just yelled "Hot chocolate weather!!". So, my girl & I enjoyed a mug of sugary goodness. And it was gooooood.
I'm totally over this rain! It has rained almost non-stop since the week of Ella's party. Our backyard is a sludgey mud pit, the local park is almost a swimming pool & when we drove past the beach yesterday; instead of seeing the usual horizon of aqua blues & glittery silver waves.....we saw a mush of chocolate coloured wash. Everywhere & everything feels damp and getting washing done is, well.....not really happening! OVER IT!
On Saturday, I was just about to loose it. I had cabin fever & it felt like the walls of our living room were closing in on me. Most of the time, I like the balance of homey weekends, where we do puzzles & make messes & squeeze in nanny naps in the afternoons. But not at the moment, I feel forced inside & I hate that. I really did not feel like doing yet another Dora puzzle or round of Princess Bingo for the 15th time.
Then Chris's parents called & said they were dropping in for lunch. Thank goodness! It broke up the afternoon perfectly & my cabin fever nicely dissolved. We enjoyed wine at 1pm.....because we can :) It was nice!
Sunday, we braved the wet, slippery roads & headed out as a family of 4, for our 'Annual Build A Bear Day'. We've been doing this around Ella's birthday every year since she was born.....a little tradition that we'll continue until she's too old & too cool for stuffed bears :)
It was kind of sad & kind of exciting at the same time, to see how much Ella has grown....even since this time last year. She hardly needed our help this time. She chose the toy, followed all the steps with little assistance & even typed the details onto the Bear's Birth Certificate at the computer! I guess that's another cool thing about traditions.....even though you're doing the same thing over & over again, it's still different; you get to see it in a different light, at a different stage, a different feel. It's refreshing & reassuring all at the same time. I love creating traditions & memories with my family.
Introducing our latest 'build a bear' member....CANDY!
And Ella paid for her herself, using some birthday present money :) Thanks Pa Ken!
We then went upstairs to the Cavill Ave Timezone. It's basically a buzz of serious over-stimulation & chaos.....but a lot of fun, especially on a rainy day of forced inside play.
We played away the rainy blues!
And bowled.....
Not sure what's going on with these last 2 photos.....they were a nightmare to upload on here & now they look all blurry! Ah well. You get the general gist of the bowling experience.
I love weekends :)
Now, to get ready for the busy week ahead.....sister is off to 3 full days of Kindy this week, Chris is having surgery on Wednesday, I've got some invitation & print orders to complete.....and a photo/blog project I'm kicking off on Wednesday :)
Talking of prints.....
Have you seen my 2 new ones in the 'rainbow range'?......
Both available to buy HERE in my webstore.
Have a great week everyone.

"I want to say it's God telling me that something's going to happen," he tried to explain, "but it's something telling me."
Whatever it was, it worked. Malcolm broke Valdosta's three-decade-old record for most catches in a season. The previous record holder was Stan Rome, widely considered the greatest athlete in Valdosta's history. Stan went on to become an NFL wide receiver, as well as the father of Jay Rome, another highly recruited Wildcat and now Malcolm's teammate and roommate at Georgia.
"I got my way into the museum -- into the history books," Malcolm said one afternoon after that season. "I got to the point where I'll always be remembered. Maybe if I make it to the NFL it'll be bigger than this. Maybe if I make it to the Hall of Fame. But right now, people will remember me for this no matter what."
We talked a little more that afternoon about the Voice; Malcolm detailed the dialogues that ran through his head during a half dozen critical plays that season. I then mentioned Reggie's on-field conversations with relatives from the beyond.
Malcolm just smiled. He didn't find any of it weird or unconventional.
