Danger Mouse and Daniele Luppi featuring Jack White and Norah Jones – "Rome"
With one of the best alternatives projects "Broken Bells," ending now, we find (Danger Mouse) Brian Burton on another conceptual project working along with Daniele Luppi. Daniele Luppi is a film music composer, working on films using the older Italian aspects of music such as, "Nine," and "Hell Ride." The American Producer Danger Mouse is known for his work ranging from all spectrums of genres, from working with Gorillaz and Cee Lo Green to Sparklehorse and The Black Keys, has this time take a leap towards an even more abstract musical art form.
Having been recorded in the city of Rome, the album "Rome," is an album which celebrates the sounds of Spaghetti Westerns films with a bit of a modern mix. It was made from, "…the love of vintage Italian soundtracks from the 60's and 70's." The point of the Spaghetti Western was to try and replicate the American Western, but the music was its own masterpiece, mainly fusing the spirit of the American Western with Italian cinema. This is not intended as homage though; this is an old sound with a modern mix, and vocals to accompany the melancholy tracks.
"Rome," combines the mood from Spaghetti Westerns as well as some of the genius from the composer of, "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly," and, "Once Upon a Time in the West," with contributions from Jack White and Norah Jones. The album does not solely consist of Jack and Norah singing but rather their collaborations to a few tracks, as well as particularly deep interludes.
Jack was given the finished instrumental part of all of the songs, and wrote lyrics pertaining to each track, clearly wanting the listener to visualize the music. Though Jack wrote lyrics to every track, not all of them contain lyrics, which allow the listener to visualize a setting and tone in accordance to their mood and perception of the track.
A few of the songs on the album are complimented with Jack White's vocals which sound similar to his vocal scheme in his White Stripes album, "Get Behind Me Satan," as well as one song from The Dead Weather, his most recent project. In the song "Old Mary," by The Dead Weather he tweaks his voice scheme and sound to be a bit more ominous and haunting. He took the sound scheme to this album, which can be clearly heard in, "The Rose with the Broken Neck."
The psychedelic Italian guitar and echoes of his voice add a haunting and chilling delivery of his lyrics, only to be balanced by a playfully melodic xylophone. Though he did not contribute to this album instrumentally, his voice is what makes the songs he is featured in give the dreamscape rhythm such as in the song, "Two Against One." It is calm and collective to an extent but delivers the quality that Jack White is known to vocally give to his music. Lyrically it is a bit profound, but it is not anything that intense, since the premises of the songs aren't about tension but about a soothing and relaxing tone.
Jack and Danger Mouse, this time were looking for that opposite of Jack's bluesy and ghastly tone, and searching for a soft melodic tone which is comforting and reminiscent. They then placed Norah Jones in the album, hoping she will be the voice of the, "any girl." The voice of tenderness and surrealism while still maintain the role of any other female singer. She excels in being the voice of tranquility especially in the song, "Black." Her voice takes the songs a bit further than just an instrumental track, but not to an extent that she steps too much out of her realm of music, and by that I mean that there is still that pop tone with the songs she is in. Norah had neither written any of the music nor lyrics, and was put to just sing, but that suffices as her collaboration to this particular album.
Though trying to fit with the Spaghetti Western style, there are no "twang" or whistling noises' trying to recreate the older music in "Rome." This is going beyond that and glorifying the essence of what the music was and using it as a backdrop while making it different. The instruments in this album make the listener visualize different landscapes per track. Having used the actual instruments to recreate this music adds to the feel of the music as well as delivers verbatim the sounds rather than having to recreate them through a computer. There are some tracks which sound similar to each other, but the majority of them are distinctive enough to create a different harmony for the listener.
With these two minds at work, there should be hardly any skepticism to the value of their new collaborated album, "Rome." Each song has its own sound and in some instances resonates a bit of Broken Bells, but not to an extent that you can label this album as a replica, but rather compliment to the songs. After five years of work on this album, there is a standard that is expected from this album, and it does reach it. Instrumentally, the music is astounding. This album reflects what Danger Mouse is famously known for, his ability to get a sound which is particular and said to be impossible to recreate, and ends up making a great new sound. The album is only about a half hour long, with interludes lasting as little as thirty seconds. There are certain sounds and aspects of music which can only last a minute, but in this album, there was potential for more. Though the interludes are short in length, they deliver a powerful impact on the depth of the album, which is why there is a demand for more.

Hime Sushi is an unassuming Japanese resturant along the Sasamat area. But the quality of sushi and food is fantastic. Service is also very prompt and efficient. I have been there a couple of times since it is near campus. Happy to share with my readers my recent food escapade at Hime.
One of the best selling points about Hime is the quality of its sashimi. Its fresh and extremely refreshing. It always cries out to me "Order more". This time, moderation is the key to enjoyment. Not to mention I need to be careful with my pocket :) So, ordered an appertiser sashimi. The cut of the sashimi is noticely smaller but for the price, I am not complaining. Also the quality of the cut is comparable to the regular sized sashimi. Verdict - fresh, light and satisfying. Frankly, I could eat the entire appertiseer by myself :)
|Nicely sliced pieces of sashimi. I want MORE (hehehe)
Next came the fried stuff - tempura and the soft shell crab. I like the quality of tempura at Hime. Its crispy and yet does not leave me with a greasy and heavy afterfill. But my favourite is the soft shell crab. Its not only crispy but there is sufficient meat and even some eggs inside. The soft shell crab went very well with the tangy mayo - a big thumbs up for me.
|Catching seafood by its tail
|Beautiful array of soft shell crab - somehow I think they were trying to display it like a "live" crab.
Finally, came the delightful array of one of their sushi's specials. Generally, the price of the sushi here is more expensive than some of the other sushi joints around the area. But its worth a splurge once in a while because the quality of the sushi is simply divine. I generally prefer eating the more traditional type of sushi in this resturant compared to their other types of fancy rolls. Again, the freshness of the seafood is a strong selling point in this restaurant. I highly recommend it.
|A beautiful array of succulent, fresh sushi.
|I love my salmon sushi.
Deco: 3.5/5 - fairly simple but clean and comfortable. Can be a tight squeeze at times and you sometimes have to wait for a table, particularly on Saturday nights. Best to make a reservation if you have a large group.
Quality of food: 4/5 - I am generally happy with the quality of the seafood and the fried stuff here. The bento lunch set (which includes terriyaki etc) is a good value for money but I personally feel its not their strongest selling point - which is their combo sushis and sashimi.
Value for $$: $$$/5. Its not exactly the most economical place but its worth saving for. Ordering ala carte can be expensive at times (depending on what you order) and may set you back $20 per person.
Overall Experience: 4/5 - I love this place. And I do get cravings for their soft shell crab and seafood motoyaki.

Bengal ties up with S'pore to impart knowledge of advanced critical care
In a unique initiative the state government has tied up with the Singapore government to impart knowledge of advanced critical care among the doctors, nurses and paramedical staff members at different Critical Care Units (CCU), Intensive Care Units (ICU) and High Dependency Units (HDU) of the state run hospitals.
The concept was the brain child of the Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee who took up the proposal with the senior officials of health ministry in Singapore while touring the country last year. She invited them to come here and conduct trainings among doctors and paramedical staff to equip them in handling patients in the critical care units.
The Singapore government responding to Chief Minsiter's appeal had agreed to hold training camps here in Kolkata.
A memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed between the state and Singapore government at the Bengal Global Summit last year.
A senior official in the state health department said that Singapore has the one of the best expertise in critical care management.
The training programme has already been started at Bijoygarh where the doctors and technicians from Singapore have been training the doctors and paramedical staff here and sharing their knowledge and expertise. A senior health department official in the state believes that the training programme will immensely benefit the doctors, nurses and technicians who take care of ICUs, CCUs and HDUs at different hospitals.
The main purpose of the new initiative was to train the doctors, nurses and paramedical staff who perform their duty at the CCUs, ICUs and HDUs of all the state run hospitals. Doctors and technical staff will have best of knowledge in their respective fields to treat the patients in a better way.
An official in the health department said that the course will be divided in 6-7 modules which will be covered in six months. Medical officers from various hospitals will be trained in rotational shifts. Each module will be conducted in 7 days.
The trainings will be imparted separately among the medical officers, nurses and technicians. The experts from Singapore will share their knowledge with the city doctors.
The doctors and paramedical staff will be taught how to handle and treat the patients undergoing treatment in the CCUs, ICUs, HDUs in a better way.
Director of Health services Dr Biswaranjan Satpathy said: "We have chalked out a comprehensive plan to impart knowledge among our doctors, nurses and paramedical staff in which the Singapore government has agreed to exchange their expertise. The programme has already been started at a hospital in Bijoygarh.
The experts from Singapore are attending the training camps. The programme will make our medical officers and paramedical staff aware about the advanced critical care in a better way.

"Birmingham agree 6m Mido fee"
Ha! Thank you Mr Bruce.
you are actually making a profit on him!
Brum = down
6 million is a sad joke
but i think he'll do well there. He's fantastic in the air and works very well as a last-ditch plan B.
I think Spurs will miss his presence when they're 1-0 down in injury time with a corner and all their strikers are 4 foot tall.
Dimitar berbatov = not 4ft tall
Darren Bent = not 4ft tall
Paul Robinson = scored 2 goals already, good in the air.
Bent are Berbatov aren't exactly
'aerial presence'.
I didn't really see what was wrong with playing Berbatov and Keane with Mido in reserve. Unless Spurs are going with Berbatov behind Bent and Keane, one of those two isn't going to be playing as often as they'd want. Why not sell Defoe? He's the same as Keane and Bent the way he plays. Plus he's crap, but he's vastly overrated so he'd get about £10m.
he be a
fat man.
I wouldn't mind offloading Defoe
but apprarently he wants to stay and fight for a place, so fair play to him. Berbatov's not bad in the air, although our biggest aerial presence(s) are our centre backs and Jenas.
As for our formation, there's talk of Berbatov and Bent with Keane in the 'hole' (he played briliiantly there last season).
should be aerial presence enough for anyone, although I guess that'd be like trying to get the Empire State Building to jump for a cross.
Jenas takes the set pieces, so he won't head much in
i think playing 3 up would be a big mistake for Spurs because the main issue is the really lightweight midfield, and taking away any of their presence could leave them getting overrun. Maybe Zokora will improve and perhaps Kaboul could play there...
i don't know why i care, i fucking hate Spurs. Lose all your games plz???
Gareth Bale
will inevitably take a fair few of the set pieces from here on in.
Keane played deep a few times last year, linking midfield with the strikers. This season our midfield has to come of age as it were. Zakora was really turning it on at the end of last season, so hopefully he's settled and huddlestone has to fulfil his potential on a more regular basis...
hang on...
...how is Bent NOT aerial presence? Mido, although I love him like a son, is a bit of a fat waste of space. You need to play him week in week out else he'll sulk, and when you have Berbatov, Keane and Defoe, that won't happen.
Still, £6m more reasons we don't need to sell Chimbonda, Pascal ChimbonDA.

Meizu M5 Note Review – Better Than Xiaomi? A Solid Budget Phone!
by May 2, 2017 5:11 pm6
Meizu is a well-known Chinese manufacturer that loves saying that its phones are better than Xiaomi's. The Meizu M5 Note is one of the company's latest budget offerings that has a flagship-grade build quality, decent specs and a lot more. Learn more in our full review.
Thanks to lightinthebox.com for sending the Meizu M5 Note for a review.
In the box, you get all the usual stuff that includes some paperwork, SIM ejector pin, USB cable and a fast charger.
DESIGN and DISPLAY
What I absolutely love about the M5 Note is a flagship-grade build quality.
Just look at it, the phone is made entirely of metal, a silver aluminum finish does not attract fingerprints and smudges quickly and the phone feels nice in the hand. I am so excited because I prefer metal phones over the glass-made ones.
The M5 Note has a 5.5" 1080p display that is just gorgeous to look at. It is sharp and vibrant but the sunlight legibility is just average.
We have a 5MP selfie camera and a notification LED light on the top and on the bottom, there is just a home button that can be either physically pressed or just tapped if you want to use it as a back key. Also, the home button doubles as a fingerprint scanner, which is very accurate but you have to wake the phone up first in order to use it.
As far as optics go, there a 13MP shooter coupled with a dual LED flash.
I love that the buttons are tactile and they do not rattle once pressed.
The sound via the headset jack is great. No distortions and great overall quality for a budget phone. The loudspeaker is also good. In fact, it is one of the better ones in this price range.
HARDWARE and PERFORMANCE
When it comes to hardware, things don't sound that great. Well, the Meizu M5 Note definitely has enough power for most of the daily tasks since it has 3GB of RAM and optional 16/32 or 64GB of expandable storage but the Mediatek Helio P10 chip can't handle the most intensive tasks like gaming.
If you play games like Asphalt 8 on the highest graphics, you should expect a lot of stutters and quite a few skipped frames. You can fix this issue only if you switch the graphics setting to medium. Other games like Nova 3 run fine.
I have always loved the Flyme Os because of the way it looks it works. Sure, it would be nice to see the latest version of Google's OS but the Android 6.0-based user interface is fast, there is no stutter or lag no matter what you do with it.
Also, there are some cool features like gesture and motion controls and they work perfectly. I just love those basic gestures that allow you to use the phone in one hand quite easily. You can also customize the phone by changing themes, wallpapers and so on. Finally, my international review unit comes with most of the languages, google play installed and there is no chinese bloatware.
I like Meizu's camera app because it is fast and responsive. However, there are a few things the company didn't fix for a long time, e.g. the shooting modes and settings menus work only in portrait mode for some reason. You can select from a few shooting modes that include a manual mode or slow motion in 720p video mode.
Meizu M5 Note takes one of the best pictures you can get on any sub-$150 phone. You will usually get photos that have plenty of detail and sharpness, and the colours will look nice. The dynamic range and white balance may be off in some of the shots but the HDR mode does a decent job bringing the detail back to the shadows (at the expense of a bit unnatural looking picture).
The low-light shots have qutie a bit of noise and grain but this is usually a case with all budget phones.
The 1080p video looks okay. Not very impressive in general but pretty good for a budget phone.
The selfies look pretty good except for the fact that the colours look a bit washed out.
The 1080p selfie video looks good but again, the colors are washed out. Finally, the sound recording quality is really good for a cheap phone.
Download full resolution camera samples
When it comes to connectivity, the M5 Note remains solid. Call quality and signal reception are great, wifi and 4g speeds are good and the Bluetooth works fine. However, I found the GPS to be less accurate than flagship phones.
A 4000 mAh battery is one of my favourite features of the Meizu M5 note. Your results may vary but with my usage, I could constantly get over 5 hours of screen-on time with 2 SIM cards and quite a heavy usage of the phone.
If you need to recharge the battery, you can do it quickly in just over 1:30 h with the supplied fast charger.
The Meizu M5 Note is a very solid budget smartphone that delivers in a lot of ways. I absolutely love the design and build quality of it, the speed and feature set of the UI, the camera, and outstanding battery life.
My main complaints would be that the phone uses Helio P10 chip which is not designed for gamers. Also, the phone still runs on Android 6.0 and we still have a regular micro USB port for charging.
Other than that, Meizu M5 Note is a great offering for the price if you don't mind those shortcomings.

7 Traits that Drive you to Success & Leadership
After 30 years working both in the corporate industry and as an entrepreneur, I have recognized that there are certain undeniable traits that high-achievers and great leaders share. People often associate achievement and success with a number of things, like the right timing, circumstance, education or natural talent. I have found that the true origins of success are more elusive. These are traits that have been cultivated and built over the years.
Below are 7 Traits that I believe create a great leader & can drive you to success:
1. A Well-Developed Personal Way of Life
Successful leaders know what their philosophy is; they understand their own thinking and reasoning. A clear viewpoint allows you to set expectations and articulate your definition of success so you can set a clear path to your goals. It prepares you for an extraordinary destiny.
2. Undeniable Persistence
Edison failed 2,000 times before he discovered the light bulb. Walt Disney was fired from his newspaper job because he "lacked imagination and creativity". He then went bankrupt several times while creating Disneyland. People who are successful never quit, and people who succeed never give up. When failure is not an option, don't give up. Find another contact, another way, another point of entry, and keep trying until you accomplish what you have set out to do. Persistence means picking yourself up every day and going after what you want without allowing anything to get in your way.
3. Meaningful Purpose
Every leader must be able to identify his or her purpose. Know your "why." When you do, you can connect with the purpose that will drive you toward your unique vision. Your purpose tells you why you're here and what legacy you want to leave. When you have a clear purpose, you know where to spend your energy.
4. The Art of Persuasion
Everyone, in every occupation, can benefit from skills in persuasion. They will help you influence others and persuade them not just to listen to you and trust you but also to partner with you, help you, and support you. Mastering communication and understanding human nature are essential if you want to effectively persuade and influence people
5. The Power of Passion
If you want to succeed, the most powerful weapon you can have is passion. It provides the fuel for success. When the passion drives you, you will do whatever it takes to make it a reality. Without passion, you don't have energy. Without energy, there are no possibilities. With no possibilities, you are stagnant, with nowhere to go. But when you can ignite the fire of passion, it will give you the energy to propel yourself toward possibility. Successful leaders understand that they are only great when they act from their passion. If you aren't passionate about what you do stop doing it.
6. Ethics and Integrity
Successful leaders honor their principles. They know and live by their values & convictions. Their ethics and integrity are deeply rooted beliefs that help them make decisions and chart their course. Your moral compass starts with basic beliefs and values, and it will guide you to do what is right, not what is easy. Trust yourself and as Jiminy Cricket said, "Let your conscience be your guide."
7. Excellent Performance
Proficiencies are important. Performance is imperative. It's great to have a vision, purpose and passion, but you bring it to reality through performance. Bring the highest level of excellence and quality to everything you do, and keep raising your level of aspiration and expectation. Always show up tomorrow better than you were yesterday.
Factors like timing, luck, and circumstance may play some role in success, but it's the deeper traits–the ones that lie within–that count the most.

Finance is for everybody who can understand numbers. Financial transactions are the most important part of everyday life. Every time you step out of your homes or now in e-commerce age even from the comfort of homes you are buying things. All these actions are financial statements. Simply speaking there are four kinds of financial transactions.
- Money goes out – Whenever you buy something or pay for a service, the dollars come out of your pocket. This is the most common kind of financial transaction. For example when you buy an ice-cream cone for $5 it is a financial transaction where money goes out of your pocket.
- Money coming in – Salary day is the most awaited day right! We are waiting for our bank account sum to increase. This is another common type of financial transaction. All kinds of transactions where you will get the money are of this type. For example you are taking a seminar and being paid a fees. The fee is money coming to you.
- Money supposed to come in – Sometimes the money is not paid instantly. The buyer will take some time to pay the money due. This is the money which is supposed to come in. For example if you are running a wholesale business you will have to give goods on credit to the retailer. This credit is the money supposed to come in.
- Money Supposed to go out – If you have taken a loan a monthly installment goes every month. This is the money which is supposed to go out every month.
Financial transactions entail only these four kinds. It is very simple. I will introduce the way these are used in financial statements which need to be prepared by companies next time. Feel free to ask questions.

Katie Price refusing to think about mother dying as she prepares to run marathon
The former glamour model is dressing up as a lung for the 26 mile race.
Katie Price has revealed she is refusing to think about her terminally ill mother dying.
Amy Price, 64, was diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) – the same disease which killed Keith Chegwin – last year.
Price, 39, is running the London Marathon on Sunday to fundraise on behalf of her mother and vowed she will finish the race even if she has to crawl over the line.
She told the Daily Mirror she was "not even thinking about mum not being here."
"You've just got to get on with it. Why would I want to be depressive and negative around my mum?," she said.
Price also revealed she would be dressing up as a lung for the marathon in a nod to her mother's illness which causes fibrosis, or scarring of the lungs, making them stiffer and thus more difficult to breathe.
In 2009 she ran the race alongside former husband Peter Andre with the couple completing the race in seven hours 11 minutes after Price's knee buckled.
And she will face hotter and more humid conditions than last time out with a forecast of between 21C (70F) and 23C (73F).
"Of course it will be a nightmare, but who cares?," she told the newspaper. "Sure, my knees are going to be in pain, but what about my mum? She can't breathe. I'm still alive. I'm lucky to be alive, but my mum's not that lucky as she's got a terminal disease."
"If I collapse, I better f****** get up again. And anyway, for me it's more about your head than your fitness, and I'm ready.
"Last time, I trained up to about 14 miles and this time I've done up to about nine miles, if that. But rather than continuing to aggravate my knees, I'd rather aggravate them fully on the day.
"But even if I end up having to crawl, I will get over that line."
On her choice of outfit she said: "Me and my friend James are running as a pair of lungs, and they're going to be ridiculously huge.
"Who knows how many people I'm going to take out on the way round? But these lungs are going to get more attention than any press call I've ever done."

190 Years Of St Peter's Church
On Wednesday 13th July 2016, The Bishop of Hertford, The Right Revd Dr Michael Beasley, joined the congregation of St Peter's church, together with invited guests from the village, to lead our 190th Year celebrations.
In a special service of thanks, the past, present and future of our parish church were remembered and celebrated before all those present enjoyed a buffet and refreshments in our Parish Hall.
You can hear the edited highlights of that service at this link:
Listen To Bishop Michael's Address Here
The congregation had the opportunity to watch a short presentation, charting the history of St Peter's church in London Colney over the past 190 years, the physical changes that have occurred during that time and the place our church holds today within the community.

I haven't done much with mushrooms in my cookbook Saffron Soul, but they do work really well with curry sauces and spices. So here's one that looks gourmet but it's one of the simplest things ever! Literally mixing up a sauce with yoghurt and spreading it over the mushrooms, letting them cook and then assembling it with all the other bits and bobs. It's so delicious, so flavourful and something I would definitely serve up to guests.
for the mushrooms
4 medium mushrooms
¾ teaspoon tikka masala paste
1 tablespoon yoghurt
sprinkle of salt
for the leaves
handful kale leaves (or can use 2 stalks cavolo nero, sliced in 1 inch pieces)
¾ teaspoon tikka masala paste
1 tablespoon yoghurt
sprinkle of salt
2 tablespoons toasted pumpkin seeds
sprinkle of smoked paprika
for the yoghurt sauce
1 tablespoon yoghurt
2 tablespoons water
pinch of smoked paprika (or can use red chilli powder)
pinch of salt
Place in oven at Gas Mark 4 for around 30 minutes
Preheat the over on gas mark 4. Mix together the yoghurt, tikka masala and salt and spread over the mushrooms, covering them entirely and filling the sauce inside the mushrooms. Do the same with the kale, covering the leaves with the sauce. Place in the oven for around 30 minutes until cooked. In the meantime mix together the yoghurt sauce and toast the pumpkin seeds (heat on low heat in a pan for a few minutes – they will become crisp when they cool down). When serving, layer the leaves between the mushrooms and then drizzle over the yoghurt sauce and pumpkin seeds.

His plans to skip town with the cash are foiled when he falls for Marian the librarian, who aims to transform him into a respectable citizen by curtain's fall. Audiences will hear such popular songs as "Till There Was You," "76 Trombones," "Trouble," "My White Knight", "The Wells Fargo Wagon", and many more, accompanied by an onstage orchestra.

Top 10 Pie Recipes
Perfect for any special occasion (or an ordinary day!), you'll want to dig into these top-rated pie recipes all year long.
Caramel-Pecan Apple Pie
You'll love the smell in your kitchen—and the smiles on everybody's faces—when you make this scrumptious caramel apple pie recipe. It takes me back home to Virginia and being at my granny's table. —Jean Castro, Phoenix, Arizona
Banana Cream Pie
Made from our farm-fresh dairy products, this pie was a sensational creamy treat anytime that Mom served it. Her recipe is a real treasure, and I've never found one that tastes better! —Bernice Morris, Marshfield, Missouri
Easy Fresh Strawberry Pie
Everything about this dessert makes it the top request for family gatherings. The delightful crust cuts beautifully to reveal a filling with pieces of diced apple. At harvesttime or any time, you cannot beat this delectable apple pie. —Brenda DuFresne, Midland, Michigan
Scrumptious Sweet Potato Pie
There are many good sweet potato pies out there, but this one doesn't contain milk. It does have a splash of whiskey and a hint of lemon. —Suzanne Smith, Maumee, Ohio
Star-Studded Blueberry Pie
Family and friends say this patriotic pie is better than a local favorite from one of our best neighborhood restaurants. Sometimes, I switch things up and use gooseberries for half of the blueberries. —Nancy Barker, Silverton, Oregon
Layered Lemon Pie
This is a great ending for almost any meal that kids and adults all enjoy. The creamy lemon filling is always a hit with my husband. —Elizabeth Yoder, Belcourt, North Dakota
Juicy Peach & Strawberry Crumb Pie
You've had peach pie and strawberry pie, and maybe even peach-strawberry pie. But throw in some garden-fresh basil and you're in for a real treat. Trust me. —Lindsay Sprunk, Noblesville, Indiana
Cherry Almond Mousse Pie
Treat your loved ones to a luscious pie with chocolate, cherries and nuts in a creamy vanilla mousse. It's a sweet yet refreshing dessert. —Dorothy Pritchett, Wills Point, Texas
Peanut Butter Cream Pie
During the warm months, it's nice to have a fluffy, no-bake dessert that's a snap to make. Packed with peanut flavor, this pie gets gobbled up even after a big meal! —Jesse & Anne Foust, Bluefield, West Virginia
Winning Rhubarb-Strawberry Pie
While being raised on a farm I often ate rhubarb, so it's natural for me to use it in a pie. I prefer to use lard for the flaky pie crust and thin, red rhubarb stalks for the filling. These two little secrets helped this recipe win top honors at the 2013 Iowa State Fair. —Marianne Carlson, Jefferson, Iowa

This RAW restaurant was featured on LivingSocial several months ago. I purchased the deal. If I remember correctly, I only paid $25 for $50 worth of food. I took David to this restaurant one evening and we took a look at the menu before sitting. He noticed that they specialized in raw, dairy free, gluten-free, and vegan dishes. That was it for him. We left and ate somewhere else that evening.
I decided my Mother In-Law would be the perfect person to try this place out with me. She's okay not having meat and does very well with ethnic foods and trying new things. So, as soon as she returned to OKC from her summer adventure in Santa Fe, I had to meet her for lunch. We made a girly date and enjoyed trying out this restaurant.
Matthew Kenney OKC was much better than I expected. I'm very much an avocado girl, so I thoroughly enjoyed their 'chips and guac.' The guac was chunky and had an incredible flavor. It was served with cacoa-corn chips, which were surprisingly good. I would love to go back and order this again.
The green curry noodle dish was probably my second favorite item. It was so fresh and the flavor combinations were wonderful. I just wish I knew the nutrition information for the kelp noodles.
While still incredibly delicious, my least favorite dish was the fajita lettuce wrap. Going by the title and description, I assumed that it was served in a fresh leaf of lettuce so I was quite surprised to find that it was actually served in a wrap. It was probably my least favorite because it wasn't super unique and I could make something very similar in my own kitchen.
The pizza bianco was excellent! It was served on a giant cacao-chip. I'm not sure if the whipped marscapone was real or some sort of substitute because I was told everything was dairy-free and vegan. As I'm sure you know, marscapone is a cheese. Either way, I may be lactose-intolerant (can't do milk or ice cream), but I'm not a dairy-free gal. I LOVE cheese!
Matthew Kenney OKC isn't a place I'll go often, but I really enjoyed it from the food to the ambiance. It was wonderful and I definitely recommend giving them a try if you're in the OKC area. It's located in the hottest new place in OKC, the Classen Curve.
'chips and guac'
fork crushed avocado, cacao-corn chips, pickled green chili, smoked salt, mole
green curry noodles
thai coconut, kelp noodles, peachcrest vegetables, basil, chili, almonds
fajita lettuce wrap
marinated vegetables, pico de gallo, avocado 'beans', sour cream, cilantro
pizza bianco
whipped marscapone, sweet peppers, young arugula, marinara, spicy olive oil

Crossing Over
Trading in the sedan
The Range Rover Velar has an exterior worthy of a concept car and a simply gorgeous interior.
The SUV and crossover segments continue to grow as American drivers trade in their sedans and coupes for something "more capable." Ironically, automakers are making these utility vehicles more carlike and less off-road focused to appeal to an even wider segment of consumers. Which means the average SUV/crossover is really just a car with a hatchback, higher ride height, and AWD.
Fortunately, some manufacturers continue to make Sport Utility Vehicles that still deliver on the promise of "sport." Summer is the best time of year to leave the pavement behind and explore the dirt roads and rocky trails where adventure really begins. If you have a need to get away from civilization, a rugged 4x4 can take you places lesser vehicles can't. We rounded up three of the best choices for drivers who believe an active lifestyle is more than an hour at spin class.
Jeep Wrangler 2018 is a big year for Wrangler enthusiasts. For only the third time since its introduction in 1986, Jeep has rolled out a new version of their iconic 4x4. The JL as it is referred to, is completely redesigned to make it more fuel efficient, safer, and better performing both on and off-road. The fact that it looks better is an added plus. Yet, the Wrangler still retains the rugged family resemblance to the original Willys Jeep of WW II. The JL comes in a variety of trim levels and in both two- and four-door variants.
The interior has been redesigned for better ergonomics and comfort while adding modern technology including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a large touchscreen interface.
Yet for all its refinement, the new Wrangler has not gotten soft. The suspension and drivetrain are optimized for the most extreme off-road adventures, especially in the Rubicon version. This rock crawler comes standard with 33-inch Baja-rated BFG tires and can ford up to 30 inches of water.
Half the fun of a Jeep is driving it in warm weather with the top down and the doors off. The new version makes the open-air conversion mush easier. An optional new full-length canvas roof opens with a push of a button. For the ultimate bugs-in-your-teeth experience, the windshield still folds flat onto the hood. But the 2018 Wrangler is not just a weekend play toy. Unlike previous generations, this Jeep is so civilized, it could be your daily driver. 2018 Wrangler prices start at only $27,495
Toyota 4Runner TRD Off-Road First introduced in 1984, the 4Runner is one of the most durable and widely used SUVs on the planet.While the original 4Runner was essentially a pick-up truck with a fiberglass cap, the current generation introduced in 2009 is a full-featured mid-sized SUV with seating for up to seven passengers. What sets the 4Runner apart from lesser vehicles is its capability. The 4Runner uses a traditional body-on-frame design for superior strength and toughness. The suspension and drivetrain can be optimized for on-road cruising or the most extreme rutted trails and steep climbs.
On a recent trip to Arizona, my wife and I put a 4Runner through its paces. The 125-mile highway drive from Phoenix to Sedona was smooth and comfortable. But when we hit the rocky trails to explore the stunning red rocks of Sedona, the 4Runner showed its true purpose. With 85-degree temperatures, and the A/C cranking, we were able to access the hardest to reach hiking trails without breaking a sweat, or a wheel. 2018 4Runner prices start at $34,610
Range Rover Velar Range Rovers have a storied history as reliable and capable vehicles for exploring the remotest spots on Earth. Yet they've haven't won a lot of beauty contests along the way. The new Velar is the family swan. From the outside, it looks like a concept car with disappearing door handles and a profile shaped by the wind. The interior is a luxury and technology showcase. My loaded Byron Blue Velar R-Dynamic HSE diesel test vehicle featured two-tone Windsor leather; 20-way adjustable seats with massage, heating and cooling; a sliding panoramic roof; and an 825-watt Meridian sound system. The Velar's controls are clean and simple with two large touch screens and two multi-purpose knobs. The flat-screen dash is configurable to suit your needs. But the menus are deep, so best to open the manual and learn the options before driving off.
Speaking of driving, like other Range Rover models, the Velar has multiple settings for different surfaces and driving styles. The on-road manners are smooth and comfortable but the Velar shines when the road gets rough. Steep hills, rutted trails, sand, deep mud, and water crossings are the Velar's playground. Most folks will cringe at the thought of taking a vehicle this gorgeous off-road. But for the adventurous few, they'll find this beauty is a beast. 2018 Velar prices start at $49,900.
JEEP GOING DEEP The totally redesigned Jeep Wrangler retains the rugged resemblance to the original Willys Jeep of WWII but way outperforms all its ancestors.

Based on the headlines from this week you may have determined that Murph and I spent the last 3 days at Sage Summit listening to keynote's from the leadership, talking to vendors on the show floor and we had some one on one opportunities with the leaders of Sage One, Sage Live and the Sage Accountant's Network. The entire event was very impressive, upbeat and had a vibe that made you want to learn more about what the company is up to.
If you have not followed Sage you may not be aware that they have a new CEO, Steve Kelly, who came into the position about 7 or 8 months ago. Since he moved into the position the company has been on a very aggressive product roll out strategy including a major push to the cloud without abandoning their desktop product. According to Kelly, users can choose desktop, hybrid or cloud for the foreseeable future. Not forced migration. I have no doubt of their sincerity, but you do have to wonder how a company can effectively manage three versions of every product over a long period of time, but I guess time will tell.
As we mentioned when we change our name last month, our intention is to continue to deliver the best coverage around of the QuickBooks Ecosystem while increasing our coverage of the other GL products in the marketplace. I know it may not seem that way from this week's headlines (heavy Sage focus), but you can rest assured that is our intention.
We appreciate your support and look forward to watching and reporting on the increasing competition between Sage, Xero and Intuit.

The minimum wage has increased in multiple states over the past three decades. Research has focused on effects on labor supply, but very little is known about how the minimum wage affects health, including children's health. We address this knowledge gap and provide an investigation focused on examining the impact of the effective state minimum wage rate on infant health. Using data on the entire universe of births in the US over 25 years, we find that an increase in the minimum wage is associated with an increase in birth weight driven by increased gestational length and fetal growth rate. The effect size is meaningful and plausible. We also find evidence of an increase in prenatal care use and a decline in smoking during pregnancy, which are some channels through which minimum wage can affect infant health.

The Capital Journal's headline again reported the massive artillery battle taking place on the Yser:
Explosion of Guns and Crash of Shells Rock Country Like Terrible Earthquake Shock
Expenditure of Ammunition Beyond Comprehension – Feathery Floating Puffs In the Dome of Sky Reveal Exploding Shells Sent After Bomb-Dropping Air-Craft – Region Covering 60 Miles Is Veritable Hell On Earth – Bombing Is Endless Road of Thunder – Greatest Artillery Duel World Even Had Misfortune to Witness
The greatest artillery duel in the history of the world is in progress from the sea to a point south of Ypres. Even artillery experts at the British headquarters will not venture a guess as to the number of guns in use on both sides. But the number runs far into the thousands and their discharge and the explosion of shells rocks the country as though by an earthquake.
There is but one little bridge that crosses the User canal at one point on the allied front. Here, all day long, 20 great German field guns have been engaged against 18 English and French pieces. As fast as the allied guns could be loaded they were discharged and shells sent screeching against the German positions; yet it was not until after nightfall that the German guns were at last silenced.
French Guns Superior
The famous French "seventy-fives," the pride of the government, demonstrated to the last their wonderful superiority over every other sort of mobile field artillery. So rapidly were they discharged that their coming sounded like an endless roll of hunger – each peal rolling upon the other without any perceptible interval.
The headline should have read "Race Trumps Love." Instead, centered on the front page, an article relates the unknowing miscegenation of a San Francisco woman:
Lived Life As Negress Though Showed No Signs of Colored Blood
San Francisco, April 27. – A scientific blood test having shown that Margaret Buckner, 25, is not a negress, she has today filed application for an annulment of her marriage to William N. Lytle, a colored dentist of Oakland.
Ever since she can remember, Mrs. Buckner has been under the impression that she was an octaroon she declared today. She married Lytle while still believing herself part negro.
A child was born. Then the woman began to suspect that she was really white. The blood test showed her there was not a drop of colored blood in her veins. So the annulment proceedings were launched in the superior court here. Dr. Lytle said today that he would not contest the suit.
Until 1951 it was illegal in Oregon for a white person to marry a Black, Native American, Asian, or Native Hawaiian (which makes the correspondent's grandparents' marriage illegal).

God Rest Ye, Unitarians
Soogle Strikes Again - Recent Searches Solved
The Unitarian song still makes me laugh... The search post being searched seems like looking in a mirror in a mirror in a mirror... But it proves that once people are looking for something they will keep looking for it.
Another search that came in this week pointed out that... we're still #1 in Colbert Fan Fiction! That's my Wikiality, baby!
Yes, I know, there are only about two paragraphs of Stephen vs. the Factinistas. But obviously the agreed upon reality - Wikiality - is that WE ARE NUMBER ONE!!!
Because Stephen would have wanted it that way.

Running back battle
The Ravens really do have some good, young running backs on the roster in Damien Berry, Bernard Pierce (pictured), Bobby Rainey and Anthony Allen. It's really hard for any of them to separate themselves from each other in practice, so the preseason games will determine the No. 2 behind Ray Rice. Ideally, the Ravens would like Pierce to be the backup because he is a third-round pick out of Temple, while Allen was a seventh-round pick last season, and both Rainey and Berry were undrafted free agents as rookies. Pierce might have a slight lead because he appears to be a good receiver out of the backfield, but the Ravens have been impressed with all of them.

Clash of Clans New Update! A New Dark Spell, the Skeleton Spell is coming in the new CoC 2016 update. The Skeleton Spell will have a few main uses in my opinion – first and foremost, luring the clan castle. At first value I feel this may be too powerful but time will tell, you may want to fit small army troops into your castle to try and prevent the easy lure. I will be using the new skeleton spell mainly for clean up at the end of a raid. The skeletons in CoC do not set off traps. Therefore using the new dark spell at the end of a raid will help you take out the remaining buildings and a pack of skeletons will do some serious damage. Other uses may include distracting defences before your heroes get there, for example the single target inferno tower. Another great use of the skeleton spell will be to target back end defences once they are distracted. Let me know in the comments below what your strategy will be with the new dark spell and I hope you are looking forward to unleashing the skeleton spell. Special thanks to Clash with Ash for allowing people to share his footage and you can see more gameplay from the skeleton spell in action below.

The Curse of Bly
Well, it's October and Halloween is only a few weeks away. I guess now is as good a time as any to tell you about Bly. My pal Marie and I stopped outside of this tiny southern Oregon town during a road trip last June.
If you grew up in Oregon, you may have learned in high school that the only conflict-related death on mainland US soil during World War 2 happened right here in the state. In 1945, a Japanese balloon bomb detonated in a field outside of Bly, killing several picnickers.
During a long day on the road, Marie and I pulled into a rest stop outside of town. Along with an ancient bathroom and a memorial for the victims of the explosion, we discovered a well-kept playground littered with eerie playground equipment. About 300 yards up the highway, there was a ghost town with a few buildings. We grabbed our cameras and started walking.
A series of "NO TRESPASSING" signs and a fence blocked us off from a large house on its last legs. Signs likes these have never stopped me before and my wanderlust wouldn't have been satted if I hadn't slid under the gate to have a look around. Marie, feeling equally foolhardy and adventurous, gave me a "what do you I think I am, some kinda wuss?" look when I sheepishly asked if she wanted to explore the place.
The place was a disaster. '40s-era appliances were lying on their backs in the kitchen, looking like they had been tossed there by a werewolf. You could practically watch the rust spread on the springs of a bed in one corner. A blue recliner stood upright in the living room, its cushions shredded by a large blade. It seemed haggard and afraid, like a blood-soaked bystander after a nasty tavern brawl.
We shouldn't have been there. The house had a horrible, dark aura about it, even at 3 o'clock in the afternoon on a summer day. Some places like this just ooze bad vibes. A slight wind seemed to growl like a dying bear. "Just go, get out of here. I don't want to get rough with you two."
I was in the backyard when I felt them on my skin. I batted one away but three took its place. Mosquitoes were all around me. I looked across the backyard and Marie was batting at her arms. Still hypnotized by the intrigue of this house, I stubbornly kept taking pictures, as more of the blood suckers descended. Suddenly, I was engulfed in a cloud of tiny needles and wings. It was a Biblical plague, remixed by one of God's most obnoxious and awful of critters.
We crawled back under the gate and hurried back towards the rest stop. I slapped a few of the mosquitoes on my elbow and came back with a palm full of blood. At first I said, "HA! Take that, you bastards!" Then I realized it was *my* blood. Now I tried to do the manly thing and escort Marie back to safety but they didn't seem to be after her. Despite the Crocodile Dundee fedora on my head, I turned to my fellow trespasser and said, "I'm sorry to abandon you at a time like this but they're fucking eating me alive!"
I took off running. The bugs, somehow, kept pace with me. I could feel them all over my skin, on my face, in my ears, down by shirt and up my cargo shorts. I flashed back to that scene in Stand By Me when Gordie and his friends made the mistake of jumping into a lake filled with leeches. I didn't even want to think about what parts of my anatomy the mosquitoes were feasting upon. I blazed up to the bathroom and slammed the door. I slapped myself all over, cranked the faucet and poured water all over my clothing and legs. My adversaries were dead or dying but I kept dumping water on myself.
A few minutes later, Marie strolled up and calmly knocked on the door. "You gonna live," she asked? "Maybe..." I sputtered. I ducked my head out. "Are they gone?"
"Yup, you're safe," she said.
At dusk the next day, we were sitting in the Alvord Hot Springs when we decided to count our collective mosquito bites. If memory serves, Marie had a lot but I had many, many more. There were at least 75 up and down my arms, legs and torso.
I've written about a previous run-in with the quote/unquote supernatural here on the blog. Am I convinced that this corner of Bly was haunted or cursed because of its dark history? Consider this: there was no standing water out there in the desert, as far as we could tell. Where had these mosquitoes come from? Surely there weren't enough snakes and jackrabbits to keep that large of a population going and thriving.
Whatever the cause or culprit, I won't be going back again. Consider this not-so subtle hint taken, Bly.
Oh, and Bly? Marie made a mix-CD to commemorate that weird afternoon back in June. It's filled with some pretty great music. If you or any members of your creepy mosquito legion would like a copy, feel free to drop me a line at email@example.com.
Labels: creepy, ghosts, Halloween
"If memory serves, Marie had around 10. I had 75 up and down my arms, legs and torso."
Riiiiight. We both looked like we had chicken pox.
Really? I could have sworn I had, like, a 100,000 times more bites than you. Drat, should have taken photos and had them notarized. This was bound to come up again.
I'm sure there were puddles of stagnant water here and there among the shrub. I got bit by mosquitos quite often in Tucson, and I can't recall much water around the place.
Nice photos. Certainly a place I wouldn't explore after sunset.
I have photographic evidence! I took photos of my ankles, where most of the bites were. They're in my Flickr photos. I count 9-10 bites just on the outside of my right ankle. We each had a good 20+ on one leg. Just sayin'. Still, you did have the swarm following you which was a bit frightening.
Sho: You're probably right about that but I'd rather think they were put there by the spirits of angry and bored dead people. You say tomato, I say....Post a Comment
M: Ok, fine. You win. But not the total # mosquito bite war, which I'm pretty sure I won at the Alvord Hot Springs. I had five billion bites to your mere 4,999,999,999.

how much of your personality do you change around different people?.....are you always the same?
....and how much of your personality do you change around those you fancy.......are you always 'yourself'....or do you act differently around different people....
i think i do a fair bit.....the core stays pretty much the same but i mix around the top layer....accent being a start....posh for the toffies....dropping t's for the toughs
i'm certainly not one of those people who is just me regardless of the company.....at least not in the beginning...over time i'll just revert to type i think....but always over time....i'm used to the...'ooh...i thought you were such a miserable shit when i first met you' comment......it's pretty much a banker i'll be getting it.
that's normal anyway right?......more yourself the more comfortable you are...etc...
in terms of fancy....right now....this girl at work i like.....i'm doing my best to try and play it cool a bit.....but normally i'd play on the fact that i'm really not cool at all and seek the laughs from that...
but surely it's almost politeness to alter your style a bit in the beginning depending on the company?...it's like your personalities meet at a halfway point and then take it from there.....
i must say.....i almost admire those people that can blitz through life showing the exact same hand to everyone on first meeting....probably comes with age or summit
you said it
i give you people my best and this is all i get in return
next time, i'll just be all....
title: how much of your personality do you change around different people?
thread: ?
people love that shit.
I'm always "myself"
but who am isn't static - I'm definitely different around different people.
I don't think anyone is the same regardless of who they're dealing with.
If I get in a taxi my accent subconciously becomes more 'Salford', but when meeting the (ex)girlfriend's parents I automatically became much more well-spoken.
"posh for the toffies....dropping t's for the toughs"
True of anyone middle class, I'd say. :D
I dont change around anyone
im slightly different to what i am online though. Or so ive been told
I'm not sure it's wise, healthy or productive
to ponder too much about it really. It's for other people to say.
I think when I was younger i chopped and changed aspects of my personality...
depending on company and what have you. But now i am just myself whenever I meet folk, too much hassle the other way. If folk don't like you for who you are then fuck em!
Everyone does it
we are social animals.

Chacin deals, Cain homers to claim Cubs series
MILWAUKEE -- Yes, Miller Park faithful, the Brewers can beat the Cubs.
In fact, after seven straight losses, they found a novel way to finally defeat their division rivals: Don't let them score a single run. Jhoulys Chacin, Jeremy Jeffress, Josh Hader and Corey Knebel combined for a six-hitter on Wednesday in Milwaukee's second straight shutout victory, 1-0, on Lorenzo Cain's third-inning home run.View Full Game Coverage
MILWAUKEE -- Yes, Miller Park faithful, the Brewers can beat the Cubs.
In fact, after seven straight losses, they found a novel way to finally defeat their division rivals: Don't let them score a single run. Jhoulys Chacin, Jeremy Jeffress, Josh Hader and Corey Knebel combined for a six-hitter on Wednesday in Milwaukee's second straight shutout victory, 1-0, on Lorenzo Cain's third-inning home run.View Full Game Coverage
"This series wasn't going to decide anything, but we know that's a team that's going to be there in the end," Brewers manager Craig Counsell said. "So wins against them are important. It was a fabulous series.
"This sounds like a broken record, but we pitched incredibly again."
Video: CHC@MIL: Counsell discusses taking 2 of 3 from Cubs
More on that to come, but first the big picture: By taking the final two games of the series after losing eight of the first nine matchups between the teams in 2018, the Brewers increased their lead to 1 1/2 games over the Cubs in the National League Central.
"They've been the team to beat the last three years, and it's always good to beat them," said Chacin, who employed a new split-fingered fastball for the first time while working six innings. "They came back against Hader, one of the best relievers, in that first game, but to beat them in back-to-back shutouts is beating them how they beat us. That's a really good way to win two games in a series."
It marked the first time since 2006 that the Brewers blanked the Cubs in back-to-back games, though those victories came in a series finale and a series opener that were separated by two months. The Brewers had never shut out the Cubs on consecutive days.
Video: CHC@MIL: Knebel K's Contreras to earn the save
That changed thanks to a pair of productive starts, first by Chase Anderson on Tuesday night and then Chacin on Wednesday. He retired the leadoff man in each of six innings, scattered four hits and three walks and struck out seven to improve to 6-0 with a 2.66 ERA over his past dozen starts.
The Brewers are 12-3 when Chacin takes the mound, but he is not the only Milwaukee starter on a roll. In the team's past 12 games, its starting pitchers have a 2.55 ERA while holding opposing hitters to a .193 average.
"He's pitching. He's got some cunning and some craftiness out there, as well as good stuff," Counsell said.
Chacin's two-year, $15.5 million contract has proven one of the wisest investments of the offseason, even if it never garnered the attention of richer deals for the likes of the Cubs' Yu Darvish. That's fine with Chacin.
"I've never been a guy who wanted a lot of attention," Chacin said. "I just want to go out there and do my job. I was happy to sign here because I saw the chemistry last year. I'm 30 years old, but I've been in the big leagues a little bit longer, and I really want to win. This is a good young team."
Video: CHC@MIL: Cain, Chacin discuss strong performances
Pitching has dominated the season series between the teams. Seven of the first 11 games have been shutouts -- five for Cubs pitchers. Chicago's staff ERA against Milwaukee is 1.28. Milwaukee's ERA against Chicago is 2.88, inflated by five earned runs in the 11th inning of Monday's series opener.
Cain's decisive homer came against Cubs starter Mike Montgomery, one of only two Brewers hits in the left-hander's six innings.
"Our pitching has been outstanding all year. Starting pitching, bullpen has been pretty much carrying our team," Cain said. "We definitely need to get going and score some more runs. We're definitely putting too much pressure on our pitchers as a whole."
Video: CHC@MIL: Cain opens the scoring with a solo home run
Counsell's description of Chacin as "crafty" was particularly apt on a day the veteran debuted a new offering. The splitter, a pitch popular with teammates Junior Guerra and Jeffress, was a replacement for the changeup Chacin had been working on but struggled to command. Chacin estimated he threw as many as 20 splitters of his 100 pitches, mostly to left-handed hitters, including to the first one of the game, Ben Zobrist.
When Chacin needed to retire Anthony Rizzo with a pair of runners aboard in the fifth inning, he went to the splitter. It induced a weak groundout to first base, and that represented the Cubs' last opportunity with a man in scoring position.
"We had been working on the changeup since Spring Training, but I wasn't feeling comfortable with it," said Chacin, who credited pitching coach Derek Johnson for the idea. "He told me to grab it like my sinker, alter my finger a little bit. Sometimes it cuts, sometimes it almost goes up. … I kept throwing it. I think that's why I had a good game today."

The Brewers and Cubs have played 341 games against each other, but only two of those have been a 1-0 Milwaukee win. Before Wednesday, the last came on July 5, 2004, when Counsell's first-inning homer was the game's lone run.
Did Counsell remember that day?
"You would have had to prompt me a little bit," Counsell said.
"Always liked him, Citizen Cain. Outstanding player. Plays it hard, plays it right. Works pro at-bats all the time. He's a high-end baseball player. I've always been a big fan." -- Cubs manager Joe Maddon
A day after placing reliever Matt Albers on the 10-day disabled list, the Brewers had a diagnosis: right rotator cuff inflammation. Albers will take a break from throwing through the weekend before the team determines whether an MRI is required.
Another pitcher on the DL with a rotator cuff injury, Zach Davies, threw off a mound on Wednesday, but he remains three weeks or so removed from returning to the active roster. He will throw several more mound sessions before heading out for two or three rehab starts, Counsell said.
After taking two of three games from the Phillies last weekend at Citizens Bank Park, the Brewers will host a three-game rematch at Miller Park beginning at 7:10 p.m. CT on Friday. Brent Suter starts for Milwaukee, six days after benefitting from the Brewers' second straight 12-run outburst to beat the Phillies with five innings of three-run ball. Jake Arrieta starts for Philadelphia.
