But they remain eight points behind the Catalan side, who are yet to drop a point this season.
In injury time José Casado was dismissed for the home side after receiving his second yellow card.
The green light was finally given to play the game on Monday evening at Rayo's Estadio de Vallecas ground in what was a tough battle for Madrid against city rivals Rayo with the pressure on after Barcelona beat Granada 2-0 on Saturday, their fifth win in succession, while Madrid had only one.
"We played as a team but we could still have been better. We were committed, which is important and it allowed us to win without problems," said Mourinho afterwards.
'Strange situation'
"It has been a strange situation with the postponement and it has been complicated to prepare for this but it was the same for both teams. We overcame it and although it wasn't a great win, we did enough. We had a lot of chances to score while they had few."
Rayo coach Paco Jémez felt that his side did well but the quality of Madrid shone through in the end.
"Against top sides it isn't enough just to compete. I can't criticise the team though, quite the opposite, I congratulate them for their effort," he said.
"We had the game more or less under control and it was when we were at our best that we conceded the second."
Sergio Ramos returned to the side after being dropped for Madrid's Champions League victory over Manchester City last week, while Michael Essien was also given the nod over Sami Khedira to partner Xabi Alonso in front of the defence in a more offensive formation than against the Premiership side as Luka Modric returned.
Jémez has shown an admirable commitment to attacking football and they faced the champions with two wingers in Jose Carlos and Lass Bangoura, who had full licence to go forward.
Apart from a dangerous header from Pepe, saved by keeper Ruben Martinez, Rayo took the game to Madrid, who were reduced to committing a series of fouls and Essien was yellow carded for a handball.
Excellent goal
But Madrid conjured up an excellent goal on the counter-attack which spanned the length of the pitch and was finished off by Benzema, who knocked the ball in from close range from a Angel Di Maria cross on the left.
Madrid were not comfortable at the back and Alvaro Arbeloa gifted the ball to Lass at the start of the second half but he failed to control with just Casillas to beat.
In an open game Essien and Ronaldo shot narrowly wide as did José Carlos for Rayo before Ronaldo's penalty decided the game after 70 minutes.
It was the Portuguese's cross that was handled by centre-half Jordi Amat and Ronaldo took the spot-kick, sending the keeper the wrong way.
Minutes later Ronaldo could have extended Madrid's advantage but he hit the post from a Gonzalo Higuain pass with the goal gaping.
In the second minute of injury time frustration got the better of Casado. who left his foot in as he challenged Mesut Ozil and was given his second yellow card. – Sapa

Oh Guerlain, you always know the way to a woman's heart, be it with your makeup, skin care, or perfumes. I got Clair as I have pale olive skin, and I am obsessed. This gives the perfect lit from within glow! It feels so silky, creamy and smooth, and it does not dry my already dry skin out or make me look flat/dull like many powders do. It does not emphasize my pores, it doesn't give an off color to my complexion, and it doesn't make my skin feel tight either. This is such a true JOY to use! I use my Chikuhodo Z1 to apply it globally, and my Z4 to use it more concentrated as a very soft highlight. It gives you the most natural glow you could imagine, but better. A pretty, luxurious container of Photoshop! This smells absolutely divine as well- it smells just as luxurious as it looks and feels, like powdery, soft Violet. It is very reminiscent of the Meteorites edt, but more soliflore. Heavenly to use, smell, and experience! It is truly a joy to use! The container is incredible itself too- very high quality, it stays shut, and the little puff that comes with it helps keep the pearls in place during travel. Every makeup lover needs to experience this product!
By Mariella 5 years ago.
First, I just want to say that I so wish we could purchase less costly (cheap plastic packaging) "refill pearls" for these products as the packaging is pretty lush and certainly easily refillable and reusable and saving a few bucks (or maybe more than a few) is something I'd sure appreciate.I finally treated myself to these iconic beads in 02/Clair. All I can say is that these do not disappoint and I only wish I hadn't spent a sizable amount already on Hourglass Ambient Light powders and Dior Rose Diamond (I was desperate to get another one before they were discontinued). Those are all nice products and good quality and give a lovely finish to the skin but they pale by comparison to the Meteorites. I think these will replace the other products I mentioned. I much prefer the glowing but natural results I get with Meteorites.

abortion, Bill Maher, Child Sacrifice, gender inclusivity, Girls Gone Wise, Herman Cain, Homosexuality, Margaret Sanger, Mormonism, NIV, Planned Parenthood, Robert Jeffress, TNIV
Again, not really sure what to title this. But, these are some things I came across in the last couple weeks that I thought were worth sharing.
Ten Reasons Why the New NIV is bad for women – Is gender inclusivity a bad thing? Chrome doesn't think it is a word, so it must be! Anyway, Girls Gone Wise had a good take on the issue.
Robert Jeffress on Bill Maher – The pastor who made the controversial statement that Mormonism is a cult appeared on Bill Maher's show. Maher isn't usually too fond of theists, Christians in particular, so it is surprising that he even got a chance to speak. Jeffress was able to express that salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone much to Maher's chagrin.
Where Child Sacrifice is a Business – Child sacrifice in pagan witch doctor practice got some exposure recently. It seems that some believe sacrificing a child can improve the economy, bring blessings upon a business, or even restore health. Despite this being in Africa, it doesn't seem much different than the Western culture.
How I wish the Homosexuality Debate Would Go – Trevin Wax did an amazing job with this short post. If people would approach the homosexuality debate like this we would gain some ground and considerable understanding.
Planned Parenthood is Racist – Herman Cain spoke out against Planned Parenthood, saying he would defund them. He said that they are a racist organization that preys on black people, and he traced this back to their founder, Margaret Sanger. Many of us have believed this for a long time, but it is so rare to see a politician saying it.

Having a global benefits strategy may include a country wide harmonized approach with plan design reflecting market prevalence and norms. The definition of market median varies greatly between countries, often creating equity differences in eligibility and access to coverage for employees from different countries but working for the same company. Some leading global companies are addressing these gaps by evolving their strategy to include an enterprise-wide minimum core benefits strategy.
Achieving Optimal Well-being by Reducing Disparities and Promoting Health Equity During National Minority Health Month
On this last day of National Minority Health Month, let us continue to live our commitment to eliminate disparities and to advance health equity. Health Equity exists when all people — regardless of race, gender, socio-economic status, geographic location or other societal constructs — have the same access and resources to achieve optimal health and well-being. Social, economic and environmental factors are strong contributors to health inequities. Employers can make a difference through intentional design of programs and policies to support health and well-being across diverse populations in the workplace, as well as through partnerships in community to impact areas where people live, work and play.

I didn't go to E3 this year. If I had, I'd have run straight to Bohemia Interactive and sat down with military sim ArmA 3 (this vid was part of the game's E3 presentation). Why? Because I'm a fan of things that go bump in the night. Or, at least, the way things look when they go bump in the night.
The lighting effects on show in this clip are insane. Even more so when you consider this is a game that takes place on an enormous sandbox island.
Now consider this: this game is the sequel to ArmA II. The game zombie mod DayZ is based on. If/when DayZ makes the jump to ArmA 3, this is the kind of darkness you'll be facing while crapping your pants in the middle of nowhere.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) Wisconsin is making Indiana its second home.
Even in basketball.
Ryan Evans scored 13 points, Traevon Jackson added 11 and the unranked Badgers used their typically deliberate, safe style to upset the second-ranked Hoosiers 64-59 and take sole possession of the conference lead.
Surprised? Not the Badgers.
``It's huge you know,'' Jackson said. ``We'll celebrate for 24 hours and then we got to get ready for Iowa. Just got to get ready for another one.''
The numbers tell the tale.
Wisconsin has won 11 consecutive games in this series, matching the second-longest streak of any school Indiana has played. The Badgers also won 11 straight over Indiana from 1912-19 and Purdue won 12 straight from 1908-14.
That's not all.
The Badgers (13-2, 4-0) are the first team since 1923 to win a fifth consecutive game in Bloomington, matching a record achieved only three other times, most recently by Purdue, and they still have not lost to Indiana coach Tom Crean since he arrived in Bloomington in 2008.
And they got this win on a night that coach Bo Ryan was not feeling well and in the same state the Badgers have won their last two league championships in football.
``I really liked how hard our guys played, the adjustments our guys made on the court, I thought our assistant coaches did a great job in practice, getting us ready for this game because the head coach is a little under the weather,'' Ryan said. ``It' like whoa! I feel like someone just took me in the corner and worked me over.''
If that's not enough to convince the detractors, Wisconsin now has seven straight wins and two victories over Top 15 teams in the last four days by doing the same thing - slowing the pace, taking advantage of opportunities and limiting the turnovers. That's Badgers basketball.
Indiana, which moved from No. 5 to No. 2 in The Associated Press poll on Monday, looked nothing like its usual self.
The nation's highest-scoring team finished with fewer than 60 points for the first time all season. One of America's top shooting teams finished with a season-low 37 percent from the field. And the only Big Ten school with five players averaging in double figures only had three players score at least 10 points.
Cody Zeller scored 18 of his 23 points in the first half when he was 8 of 8 from the field and finished with 10 rebounds to lead the Hoosiers (15-2, 3-1). Christian Watford added 11 points and Victor Oladipo had 10.
That wasn't nearly good enough against a defense that turned this game into a possession-by-possession slog where baskets were scarce. Indiana struggled to adjust and missing shots certainly didn't help.
``We just weren't moving the ball like we should have, like we do, and I think when we see the film we'll see that it's not as much them as it was us,'' Crean said. ``I'm not taking anything away from them. They played well.''
In fact, the Badgers followed the script perfectly.
They committed just eight turnovers and took advantage of seemingly every opportunity they had, especially in the second half as Hoosiers fans moaned and groaned about everything from missed shots to errant passes.
Indiana opened the second half with a three-point play to extend its halftime lead to 35-31, but managed only six points over the next 6:34.
The drought opened the door for Wisconsin, which rallied with a 7-0 run to take a 38-37 lead. A few minutes later, the Badgers were off on a 9-0 spurt that ended when Mike Bruesewitz's 3 beat the shot-clock buzzer to give Wisconsin a 47-39 lead.
``They bait you with their drives and kicks,'' Crean said. ``In the second half, they made shots and some of them reminded me of the Michael Jordan-Larry Bird McDonald's commercial.''
Wisconsin led by as much as 51-41 before the Hoosiers finally cranked up the pressure.
Indiana scored four straight and after Evans made 1 of 2 free throws, the Hoosiers scored six straight to pull to 52-51 on Yogi Ferrell's 3 with 4:40 to go.
But that was as Indiana got.
Ben Brust made a 17-foot jumper and the Badgers closed it out with a game-ending 12-8 run.
``It's just what we normally do,'' Ryan said. ``We try to take away giving up easy baskets. I think everybody in the country says that, and then you've got to do it. Our guys have bought into that, especially tonight because Indiana is that good.''

Post subject: chicken - brined and roasted and spotty
Subject: chicken: brined and roasted; spotty
I like from time to time to brine a chicken for a day or two with herbs and garlic and veggies before roasting it. It adds wonderful flavor to a bland tastijng meat. I dry the fowl off and rub it with olive oil before roasting at 500 degrees, starting with it on its breast with the legs and thighs flattened out for a half hour, then turning it right side up for another half hour. Although this produces a tasty bird, I can never get the skin to brown evenly. It always has black burnt spots and skin that looks pale. The skin does not come out crisp. Any ideas how to roast a brined chick so it comes out all golden brown? I think the brining removes some of the surface fat. The high heat method works very well for an unbrined bird, which comes out sort of tasteless, but with crisp, evenly browned skin. Suggestions?

here's the problem as I see it:
cooking / roasting at high heat and simultaneously looking for a browned crisp crust (skin or other) means one has to achieve the right balance of temp and time to get "the thing" cooked to preference (ie internal temp) meanwhile _not_ turning the outside into charcoal.
now, if one does "the same thing" day in and day out (as in a restaurant) one gets to perfect one's technique, temperature and timing.
personally, I just chicken out - I roast "the thing" at a low(er) temp so it stays nice, moist and juicy, then when the inside is "done" I turn up the heat to blast furnace range and crisp the outside.
specifically as to "why" regarding brined vs. not-brined..... (one of) the purpose(s) of brining is to get more moisture into "the thing" - so one could wonder if brining also puts more water into the skin making it "more tricky" to get the skin up to "deep fry in place" on the bird for crispy.....

Yeah, that's what my brain is telling me. The little dear has soaked up moisture, spotting could be due to the oil/water not wanting to get together.
I would run a stunt bird through at 500, no brining. Make sure bird is more than dry inside and out, kosher salt it. No oil. This will tighten up and crisp up that skin like a champ. At this high temperature the bird won't have time to dry out, no biggie. Hooboy the wings come out like chicken candy!
See how that goes. OH yeah.
xo, Biggles
ps - Or you could dry hanging the bird in front of a fan for a while to dry it out first, then oil and roast.

omg. "deep fry in place" sez it all. Period. I kinda knew it. Merci, geniouses! I'll try lower temp (maybe 350) after brining, basting frequently. But I ain't backin' off my thinkin' that brining is grest for ratcheting up flavor. I thing you might have to give up criisp skin for added flavor...well. We'll continue to seek a happy medium.

Post subject: Don't brine - Dry brine for crispy skin!
This was something that Cooks Illustrated covered a few years ago. The secret is not to brine it - dry brine it (Salt it) instead. Drying the skin out (which is not possible with brining) is the key to crispy chicken that still has the juiciness of brining.
Rinse the chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Mix 1TBS kosher salt with about a teaspoon of pepper and then rub all over all the surfaces of the chicken, including under the loosened skin of the breast, thighs and legs. You may need another teaspoon of kosher salt for the cavity. then place on a rack in the refrigerator and refrigerate overnight (6 hours at least, overnight is best). Poke holes in all of the fat deposits on breast and thighs to allow the fat to render.
Then roast breast down on the rack at 450 for about 25 minutes. Carefully flip the chicken over and insert a thermometer into the breast meat. When the breast registers 135, crank the oven heat up to 500 and continue roasting until the breast registers 160.

Thanks, KGB (I can't believe I'm actually speaking to the KGB) - What you say makes good sense, and Cooks Illustrated is brill. Think I will add some other things to the dry rub, though, because in addition to adding moisture to the bird, brining really does infuse the meat with the flavor of the herbs and vegetables one puts into the brine.

Thanks for the recipe. I made it this evening and served it with steak, even though what I really wanted to do was eat it with a spoon.
