Dukes County Prescription Discount Card

Contact Information
Dukes County is proud to provide its residents with additional relief in terms of the rising cost of prescription drugs. The
Dukes County Coast2Coast prescription discount card
offers significant savings for the uninsured and underinsured residents of our county, and even residents with prescription coverage can use the card to save money on drugs that are not covered by their health plan. Most importantly, there is no cost to County taxpayers for the card or to Dukes County.
Most pharmacies will have cards available for residents. Residents may also
go online to
to print a card
and to obtain more information about the program go to
The savings are tremendous. The average savings in 2009 for cardholders was over 39% and in 2010 they've been over 45%. The card will help people put some money back in their pockets to meet other necessities. This is an effort to save families money in these current economic times and to take the bite out of purchasing medications as well as helping others have the ability to purchase medications they may not be able to otherwise afford. The County receives a royalty on a per filled prescription basis of $.50 to $.75 -- depending upon volume – which comes out of the pharmacy dispensing fee – so there is no increased cost to county residents for using the card. The pharmacies are doing this to help drive in additional business and to help residents save on their prescriptions.
Using the Dukes County - Coast2Coast Rx discount card is easy. Simply present it at a participating pharmacy.
There is no enrollment form, no membership fee and no restrictions or limits on usage.
Cardholders and their family members may use the card any time their prescriptions are not covered by insurance or other means.
The card also includes savings from 50% to 80% on lab & imaging tests; we've seen residents in counties throughout the U.S. save hundreds to thousands of dollars on things such as CT Scans & MRIs.
Some prescriptions have small discounts and others we've seen are as high as 95% off the retail rate. Collectively we're expecting Dukes County cardholders to save tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars every month by using the card.
The card is primarily for people without health insurance although there are a number of instances where people with health insurance may save using the card. For example people with high deductibles or a Health Savings Account. Some drugs aren't covered by health policies – so the card will help insureds save in these situations. Lastly Medicare Part D participants that don't have supplemental coverage for their donut hole period might also be able to save using the card.

Jack Lee Collection - Sanderson Family Collection - Heritage 1/2009:4959, $46,000 - Coronet Collection - Legend Rare Coin Auctions 6/2015:22, $108,687.50
R. Dier - Gold River Collection (PCGS Set Registry)
Ron Guth: The 1882-O Silver Dollar is a common date but, because it comes from the New Orleans Mint, it is difficult to locate in Gem condition. The typical Mint State grade for an 1882-O Morgan Dollar is MS-63, reflective of the typical poor strike associated with this mint. Almost 700 MS-65 examples have been certified by PCGS (as of July 2012), but high collector demand means they can be elusive and expensive. MS-66 examples are super-scarce and anything better is ultra-rare. The finest example certified by PCGS is a single, monstrous MS-68 formerly in Jack Lee's set.

When your customers make a purchase using a credit card, debit card or gift card, an electronic system automatically uses the cards bank identification number in order to identify the card issuer and the card itself.

A well-designed BIN system will allow your company to link customers to their purchases and approve electronic transactions instantaneously. A BIN check service, such as that provided by BinBase.com, can increase the efficiency and accuracy of nearly all of your business transactions.

"My Optimism Is Hair-Thin"
Mr. Amiralay, how would you describe yourself? Who is Omar Amiralay?
Omar Amiralay: Omar Amiralay is an unhappy person. It was his fate to be born in a time of misfortune. I come from an old Ottoman family; we are part of the region's Ottoman heritage. I was born toward the end of the war, in 1944, two years before Syria achieved independence.
I was four years old when the Nakba happened in Palestine and six years old at the time of the Arab world's first putsch. As you can see, these beginnings set the course. We set out on a path strewn with catastrophes, and a life filled with obstacles lay before us.
At that time I wasn't thinking about film, of course, but through my brother, who was a painter, I had contact to art at a very early age. I grew up in an environment which gave me access to art and music.
My brother's generation was the first generation to consciously dream of establishing a society that was open to the west and its culture. They began to build up a civil, culture-based society in Syria. That was the beginning.
Catherine David, the curator of the project "Middle East News", said in her opening speech that while the Middle East plays a major role in the media, this event illuminated a neglected aspect of the region. Do you agree with her, and what message do you want to convey yourself?
Amiralay: She is certainly right when she says that politics reduce the Arab world to the political, and that the media, in turn, reduce the politics. As you can see, the understanding of the Arab world is belittled, in its totality, complexity and diversity.
Can you explain exactly how and in what respect this reductionist view comes about?
Amiralay: The view of the European media is restricted by their fears. That happened even at this event. One of the two main talks focused on a portrait of Zarqawi. I find it rather unfair to reduce the Arab world to a person like Zarqawi.
Over and over again people who actually work outside the western media claim to be specialists in the region. They give the European media access to events in the region by exploring phenomena like Bin Laden and Zarqawi and giving them a special meaning. They narrow the focus, which means they are consciously or unconsciously playing along with the media's game.
Who would be in a position to present a better picture?
Amiralay: I lost control of myself in a discussion yesterday. I said that we were sick of European specialists providing a one-sided approach to the Arab world.
People have to start accepting the fact that the Arab world has its own representatives. People who think according to western models and methods and produce rational, methodical examinations of their own reality. They reflect the position of people who are directly affected, rather than that of the observer or the analyst. The west must accept that the Arab world has these capabilities itself and is able to present itself on its own.
In your first film, Attempt at the Euphrates Dam, you glorify technology and the anticipated modernization. Machines and cranes are filmed from below, which makes them appear imposing. And again in your latest film, A Flood in Baath Country, there are oversized images of the reservoir. In both scenarios people seem to be portrayed as tiny and lost. Is that the way you see it?
Amiralay: That's true of the first film. People were mere cogs in the machines that built the dam. The second film features two people: the first represents the Syrian conscience. This masked person tells of the country's history, of how the country and its culture was lost to the flooding. The film ends with a close-up in which this person says: There is no river anymore.
Now we have a lake. We used to swim in the river, and we went walking on its banks. Today our children can't swim or dive anymore; they think this river has always been a lake. They're afraid of drowning in it.
At the beginning of the film, before we enter the village of al-Maschi, a close-up shows the Syrians as very small and lost. A drop in the water.
In these two films you move between two extremes: glorification and admiration in the first, and criticism, even condemnation in the second. There is no doubt that the latest film criticizes those in power. Aren't you condemning yourself as well, if we look back at your first film?
Amiralay: In the 1960s and 70s I participated in the political life of the time. I didn't follow the Baath party line, because I wasn't a Baathist. I was a Marxist, and I still am. My conception of modernity was oriented toward the Soviet model, that is, the Leninist understanding of modernity, and that means modernization.
The Baath Party adopted trivial aspects of Soviet philosophy and tried to put them into practice because it had neither an economic program nor a socialist ideology. It was just a bad copy of the Soviet model. It's no coincidence that the Soviets built the dam themselves.
We believed that this understanding of modernization – that is, the revolutionization and development of the means of production and the mechanization of agriculture and manufacturing – would change the relations of production and people and human relations along with them.
However, that does not release intellectuals from their historical responsibility, and it does not permit them to wash their hands of the matter as if they have always been in the right and have a monopoly on the truth.
What I mean is: if I allow myself to criticize the Baath Party, I must first practice self-criticism. I collaborated with this Syrian ideology of modernization. Thus, we intellectuals shared the responsibility for our country's ruin.
A Flood in Baath Country ends with a snowstorm, terrifying rumbles of thunder and the call to prayer. An infinite pessimism. Have you lost hope?
Amiralay: I wanted to point out at the end of the film that the totalitarianism of the Baath Party paves the way for a different kind of totalitarianism, the totalitarianism in the name of Islam. Tomorrow the Islamists will force people into a certain kind of thinking and behavior which will not be much worse than the supposedly secular nationalist and totalitarian regime.
We are confronted with a historical heritage of totalitarianism, and I don't believe we have yet reached the last station of this journey in the region.
Let's talk about the opposition and the changes in Syria. Will Syria's fate be similar to Iraq's?
Amiralay: There are two reasons why Syria will be spared this fate for the time being. One is the fear that Syria will break apart, just like Iraq. For another thing, three hundred holy men are buried in Damascus, and I believe their bones would ache if American tanks rolled over them. These holy men have come together because they represent Syria better than the 218 members of parliament do.
But seriously: I believe the history of Syria and the Umayyad political heritage show to this day that politics cannot be allowed to ruin the country. That means that at some point a compromise must be reached. That is exactly what the story of the hair of Caliph Mu'awiya tells. The Umayyad heritage differs from the Abbasid heritage. Baghdad was destroyed several times over the course of history, while Damascus has existed uninterrupted for more than four thousand years.
You've become somewhat more optimistic.
Amiralay: My optimism is hair-thin. I am counting on the continuation of Syria's Umayyad history.
So you are reckoning with a compromise?
Amiralay: Yes.

If you want to do something about America's trade deficit, wander through the 175 booths next weekend at Paradise City Arts Festival in Marlborough. You'll find high-quality works by artists and artisians, all made in the U.S.
If you want to do something about America's trade deficit, wander through the 175 booths next weekend at Paradise City Arts Festival in Marlborough.
Check out Patty Sgrecci's moving sculptures and mobiles that look like they sprang to life from a Paul Klee painting.
Looking for a different kind of portrait? What about Lorena Pugh's witty and sensual paintings of "womanly pears?"
An artist and seamstress, Framingham resident Cindy Walsh will show and sell women's wear, kids' outerwear, accessories and blankets from her own line of Red Rover Clothing.
How about something completely new like Peter Bloch's translucent wooden lampshades, which he carves from a block of aspen down to a tenth of an inch thickness? That only leaves another 171 of some of the finest artisans and crafts workers from New England and 25 other states.
For the 14th year, Paradise City Arts Festival will bring its typically wide-ranging selection of fine and functional art to Marlborough.
It runs in the Royal Plaza Trade Center on Nov. 18 (10 a.m. to 5 p.m.), Nov. 19 (10 a.m. to 6 p.m.) and Nov. 20 (11 a.m. to 5 p.m.).
Founding Director Linda Post said artists chosen for the show have been encouraged to make and display work that reflects this year's theme, "Picturing the Music."
"For the last five years, we've been choosing a new theme for each show to make them push the envelope. We felt a lot of artists are inspired by music. It shapes their work. As a theme, we think it's going to make this an especially interesting festival," she said.
Post observed all the art displayed at Paradise City has been made in the U.S. and visitors who buy objects are "supporting the creative economy."
In recent years, attendance has hovered around 8,000 visitors.
Post, who co-founded the festival in 1995 with her husband, Geoffrey, said they jury each show with some outside assistance to "guarantee a constant influx of fresh new artists." Between 30 and 40 new artists will be exhibiting work in Marlborough, she said.
With an emphasis on functional art for the home and personal wear, the festival in the 50,000-square-foot convention center on Boston Post Road includes painters, photographers, sculptors, jewelry makers, potters and artists who work with leather, wood, glass, metal, fiber, mixed media and more.
Several area artists will display exciting, innovative work often made with unconventional materials in distinctive styles.
Tami Rodrig creates what she calls "mixed media jewelry," including bracelets, necklaces, earrings and pins. This will be the fourth festival for the Lexington resident, a native of Israel.
"I think my jewelry is unique because it combines my interests in silversmithing, painting and using found objects. I'm inspired by nature and primitive and folk art. I love vibrant colors and try to put some humor in all my jewelry," said Rodrig.
For the past five years, Frann Addison has combined her training in metalsmithing and knowledge of fine art to make original, finely crafted works of Judaica that can be used in Jewish rituals, ceremonies and services.
An Acton resident, she'll display menorahs, Sabbath candle sticks, "charity" boxes and handblown glass Mezuzahs, which contain an enclosed scroll of religious text that should be fixed on a door post, and more.
Beth Solomon, of Lexington, will show her two lines of 18- and 22-karat gold jewelry. Solomon said all her pieces have been hand fabricated, making each object unique. And she described her jewelry as "one-of-a-kind sculptures" that were inspired by her close observation of nature.
Solomon said her jewelry has been variously described as bold, edgy, contemporary, feminine and "classic work that makes a statement."
Post said the festival will have several "special touches, including live "Jazz in the Cafe," to create a convivial atmosphere.
On Friday, the JD Jazz Trio will play standards to the accompaniment of a keyboardist and drummer. Making their first festival appearance Saturday, the highly regarded Ameranouche will play acoustic Gypsy jazz inspired by Django Reinhardt, and on Sunday vocalist Jessica Freeman and her own trio will perform their own brand of jazz.
"We're hoping these diverse musicians will make this festival very special," said Post.
WHAT: Paradise City Arts Festival
WHEN: Nov. 18-20
WHERE: Royal Plaza Trade Center, 181 Boston Post Road West, Marlborough

Retired State Supreme Court Justice Frank A. Sedita Jr. dies at 78
Retired State Supreme Court Justice Frank A. Sedita Jr. died Sunday in Sisters Hospital after a brief illness. He was 78.
Judge Sedita, a member of one of the area's most prominent political families, was the son of three-term Buffalo Mayor Frank A. Sedita and the father of Erie County District Attorney Frank A. Sedita III.
As Buffalo Housing Court Judge in 1992-93, he cracked down on the city's slumlords, imposing a record total of fines and sending several of them to jail, including then-Common Council Member Norman M. Bakos of the Lovejoy District.
He became a State Supreme Court justice in 1994, completed a 10-year term and served three additional two-year extensions on senior status until he reached the mandatory retirement age of 76.
In retirement, he joined Counsel Financial Services, headed by his close friend, former Erie County Surrogate Joseph S. Mattina.
A graduate of Buffalo public schools, he attended Buffalo State Teachers College and was a summa cum laude graduate of Canisius College, where he was known for his diligence at taking notes. He earned a law degree from the University of Buffalo and was admitted to the bar in 1961.
He was in private practice, specializing in trial, matrimonial and family law until 1968, when he scored 99 on a civil service test and was named Buffalo assistant corporation counsel. In 1970, he was appointed senior deputy corporation counsel, serving until 1976.
Named associate City Court judge in 1976, he won election that fall and served until 1980, when he was elected Erie County Family Court judge. While in Family Court, he was assigned for two years as an acting justice of State Supreme Court.
In 1990, he made an unusual move and ran unopposed for chief City Court judge, which meant taking a pay cut.
When nobody else wanted to replace a departing Housing Court judge in 1992, he named himself to the post and quickly earned acclaim for his hard line with slumlords. He toured dilapidated buildings, imposed deadlines for repairs and increased the fines on delinquent property owners. He became known as "Maximum Frank."
He also proposed several housing reforms and consolidated the landlord-tenant part of City Court with Housing Court in 1993.
Judge Sedita received numerous honors for his work in Housing Court. He was a Buffalo News Outstanding Citizen in 1992 and received the Buffalo Urban League Stewardship Award in 1993 and the West Side Business Association's Citizen of the Year Award in 1994.
Although he could be a tough judge, he also was known for his generosity and his charm.
"He was a very friendly, gregarious guy," one of his longtime friends remarked Sunday.
"He was known all over town."
In addition to his son, survivors include his wife of 52 years, Marilyn Hemstock Sedita.
Funeral arrangements will be announced.

Complex carbohydrates
Complex carbohydrates are made up of sugar molecules that are strung together in long, complex chains. Complex carbohydrates are found in foods such as peas, beans, whole grains, and vegetables. The body turns both simple and complex carbohydrates into glucose (blood sugar), but blood glucose levels rise slowly when complex carbohyrdrates are digested. Glucose is used in the cells of the body and in the brain. Any unused glucose is stored in the liver and muscles as glycogen for use later.
Complex carbohydrate foods provide vitamins, minerals, and fiber that are important to the health of an individual. The majority of carbohydrates should come from complex carbohydrates (starches), rather than processed or refined sugars, which do not have the vitamins, minerals, and fiber found in complex and natural carbohydrates. Refined sugars are often called "empty calories" because they have little to no nutritional value apart from calories.

Parents Are Livid By Boy Scouts Of America's Latest Decision
By Bill Galluccio
October 11, 2017
The Boy Scouts of America says girls will soon be allowed to become Cub Scouts and to earn the coveted rank of Eagle Scout, the organization's highest honor. The scouting board of directors voted unanimously this week to make the historic change.
Chief Executive of the Boy Scouts Michael Surbaugh said today that he hoped the change would "meet the needs of families interested in positive and lifelong experiences for their children." The organization has been primarily for boys, since its founding more than 100 years ago.
Starting next year, young girls will be able to join Cub Scout units known as dens. Dens will however remain single-gender -- all boys or all girls. A separate program for older girls will launch in 2019, enabling young women to earn the rank of eagle scout. In a statement, the organization said the move reflects the "changing nature of American life."
Many people are not happy with the decision. "Boy Scouts" quickly became a trending topic on Twitter and most of the tweets were not in favor of the new policy:
The boy scouts may out do the NFL in destroying their organization. All part of the comme plan. Leader of scouts is CFR— End Usury (@end_usury) October 11, 2017
Really Boy Scouts? Literally nothing is sacred.— TaxedNotRepresented (@TaxedNotRepped) October 11, 2017
I will NOT be having my kids join the "Boy Scouts" with girls. This is extremely problematic to underage boys exploring their homosexuality.— Pheep2049™ (@OfficialPheep) October 11, 2017
Girls in Boy Scouts? Social justice is getting out of hand. #BoyScouts— HONEST ABE INCOLN (@HonestAbeInkin) October 11, 2017
Boy Scouts has long been feminized. They took a pocket knife away from me in cub scouts bc it was 'dangerous' https://t.co/GYQLEKU7ny— Nick Saffran (@nicksaffran) October 11, 2017

At its Monday evening meeting, the Grand Island Board of Education talked about the proposed new transportation center behind Sidway School. Baseline Road residents were present again to listen for any updates. New to the discussion was a re-worked estimate from Campus Construction.
Director of Business and Finance Joe Giarrizzo reminded trustees that there are three options under consideration - titled red, white and blue - with details of each posted to the district's website (www.k12.ginet.org). Officials favor the white option, but it now has a price tag more than $1.7 million over the original estimate of $5 million. According to Giarrizzo, $850,000 of that amount can be taken from the district's $8 million "and change" in its capital reserve account.
The board and administrators view the white option as the best use of reserve funds. In addition, this option would re-use the existing bus garage for the district's buildings and grounds workers. They currently work out of a building at Eco Island on Staley Road. Current Eco Island exhibits and classroom space could then be moved into the substantially larger maintenance building at Eco Island, with the following renovations to make it more usable by students:
•Upgrades to comply with mandates of the Americans with Disabilities Act
•Repair of cracked walls
•Telephone system upgrade
The board will decide on an option at the Sept. 10 meeting. Then, a minimum of 75 days is required before the option can go to public referendum.
Another recurring topic was the use by Niagara Sunday Fliers of a field on Staley Road. Resident Kristin Yiengst, who lives next door to the field, voiced concern about the club's radio-controlled models flying over her house during a recent demonstration club members put on for town and school board officials. Yiengst stables several horses on her property and was not allowed by the Town of Grand Island to board additional animals because of concerns for parking.
"I just feel as though there is no reason for it (the field) to be put right next to my property. Safety issue is big for horses ..." Yiengst said.
In a later interview, Yiengst stated that her horses are easily "spooked," and she is concerned they will be injured and need veterinary care. She also wondered if school buses will need parking space when the high school's technology classes use the fields in conjunction with the club.
Trustee Paul Krull said he attended the weekend demonstration and that the radio-controlled models were in the air "one plane at a time" and that club members are safety conscious and use a "buddy system" to train novices.
In other actions, trustees voted "Yes" on including information on the Dignity for All Students Act (DASA) into the district's code of conduct. Training for staffers will be done annually. Also, the board awarded a blacktop and striping bid for the elementary schools to J & D Sealcoating in the amount of $31,000.
Finally, in his Superintendent's Report, Robert Christmann said that there is now equality in the music lesson schedules at Huth Road and Kaegebein elementary schools. All elementary music lessons will be 35 minutes each. In addition, he said that community and school staff will be planning special events for Grand Island High School's 50th anniversary.
The next meeting of the Grand Island Board of Education is Monday, Sept. 10, at 7:30 p.m. in the Veronica E. Connor Middle School Little Theater, 1100 Ransom Road.

The Recipe: Every good gumbo – according to some, every good Cajun dish – starts off with a roux, a silky fat and flour mixture cooked to colors ranging from Mardi-Gras gold to black-as-voodoo. This gumbo recipe uses Cook's Illustrated's almost-no-stirring technique where the roux [pronounced ROO] is baked in the oven to a rich mahogany color. My Gumbo King thought the shortcut foolhardy and unnecessary but came away impressed by the results. "Seriously terrific gumbo," he called it, then paid the ultimate compliment, "Justin Wilson would be proud."
The Conversation: How to make a perfect roux in the oven.
If you asked Justin Wilson, the storied Cajun humorist, "What's for dinner?" he'd answer, "Whaddaya got?" Except that's not quite right – in fact, he would probably say, "First, make a roux. NOW whaddaya got?"
A roux isn't hard to make. In fact, home cooks make a roux every time we cook butter and flour as a thickener for soup, cheese sauce, etc. All it takes is fat, flour and patience.
Patience comes into play because a good roux, a pitch-dark roux, takes time. Find yourself a stool and a spoon and just stir and stir and stir and then stir some more, never letting up, never letting the mixture separate or burn, letting the color and flavor develop over an hour or longer.
As they are wont to do, Cook's Illustrated turned that formula upside down, putting the roux-maker out to pasture by letting the oven do the stirring.
Praise be, the technique works like a charm.
Cook's Illustrated also uses an unusual ingredient that boosts the seafood dimension of the gumbo. It's fish sauce, the salty liquid known in Thai and other Asian cuisines. I had no trouble finding a bottle in the Asian shelf in my everyday supermarket and in the pantry, not the fridge, it keeps for a long time. Fish sauce has a distinct flavor, I use it occasionally in recipes here, see recipes calling for fish sauce. But if you can't find a bottle, then I'd suggest shelling the shrimp while the roux cooks. Make a simple fish stock by cooking the shells with 5 cups of water, an onion, a carrot, a rib of celery, simmering for an hour to cook down to about 4 cups. Use this instead of chicken stock.
MORE JUSTIN WILSON Want to know more? Books and cookbooks by Justin Wilson.
SHORTCUT GUMBO? I started to call this recipe "Shortcut Gumbo" because honestly, I took shortcuts at every turn, using garlic from a jar, bouillon cubes instead of homemade chicken stock. But two hours of hands-on time is hardly an every-day cooking session. Even so, gumbo is no high art. It's Cajun peasant food, completely forgiving, so long as it starts with a good roux.
Gumbo makes great party food. In these parts, it's tradition to serve gumbo on Christmas Eve afternoon and last year, we made a big pot for a Mardi Gras party complete with a crawfish boil in the back yard, the kitchen table spread with newspapers for easy clean-up of the shells, finished with bananas Foster.
Laissez les bons temps rouler! Let the good times roll!
Time to table: 4 hours
Makes 16 cups
- 3/4 cup flour
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 large onion, chopped fine
- 1 large poblano pepper, chopped fine
- 1 large green pepper, chopped fine
- 1 rib celery, chopped fine
- 5 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (see TIPS)
- 15 ounces canned diced tomato
- 4 cups chicken broth, room temperature
- 1/4 cup fish sauce
- 2 pounds chicken, preferably boneless, skinless chicken thighs, chopped into small pieces and seasoned with black pepper
- 16 ounces frozen okra, thawed to room temperature
- 2 pounds fresh shrimp, peeled, deveined and halved
- 8 ounces andouille sausage, chopped small
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Cooked rice, Oven-Baked Brown Rice is great
- Filé powder, also called gumbo filé (don't skip this)
FIRST, MAKE A ROUX Place an oven rack in the lowest position, preheat oven to 350F.
In a large heavy Dutch oven, toast flour on medium heat, stirring continuously. It will take some time for the flour to begin to cook, watch for a little smoke rising, then observe the texture change and the color to almost imperceptibly begin to darken. This takes about 10 minutes, stirring continuously, keeping a close eye.
Remove from heat and stir in the oil, a bit at a time. If little chunks of "fried flour" form, try to break them up, if not, at the end, fish them out.
Cover and bake for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and stir well, don't be alarmed by what appear to be dark chunks, these are easy to stir out. According to Cook's Illustrated, a roux can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to a week. If so, bring the roux back to a boil before continuing.
START THE GUMBO Over medium heat, stir in onion, poblano pepper and green pepper and cook, stirring often, until vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes.
Stir in garlic, 1 tablespoon flour and cayenne, cook for about 1 minute.
Stir in tomatoes, cook until the liquid is absorbed into the gumbo about 1 minute.
A splashful at a time at first, stir in chicken broth and fish sauce, letting the liquid become fully absorbed by the gumbo before adding more. Take your time here, it will pay off in texture.
Stir in seasoned chicken and bring just to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a slow simmer, cover and let simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
IF ADDING SOME OKRA, SHRIMP & ANDOUILLE EARLY (see TIPS) Stir in about 1/4 the okra, shrimp and andouille, then return to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and let simmer for another 30 minutes.
IF MAKING AHEAD Stop here, let cool, cover and refrigerate for a day or so. Before serving, return to a simmer.
JUST BEFORE SERVING Stir in the andouille and let heat through. Stir in the okra and cook for about 5 minutes. Stir in the shrimp and cook for about 5 minutes or until the shrimp is fully cooked. Taste and adjust seasonings.
TO SERVE Place a spoonful or two of cooked rice in a bowl, top with gumbo and sprinkle with filé powder.

I was quite taken by a number of the recipes here, enough that I purchased it, despite having MORE than enough cookbooks and recipe ideas already. The gumbo alone was worth the price --
I tried this recipe for my first-ever gumbo. For the most part it seemed great, but the gumbo itself was very acidic. I don;t mean it was too spicy - while it packed some heat that wasn;t a problem.
I'm wondering whether the canned tomatoes (15-oz can of Hunt's - should have been fine) or perhaps the fish sauce (Vietnamese, seemed pretty standard) contributed to this. My roux came out just about the same color as your photo, so I don;t think that was the issue.
Any input?
Thanks, Mark
Did you add something to balance the acidity? No letting a potentially good gumbo go to waste!

The New England Patriots remain home for Sunday afternoon's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Game time is for 4:25 p.m. After the game the Patriots will have their bye week before traveling to Carolina.
The Patriots (6-2) struggled badly early last week before taking over in the second half, scoring 24 unanswered points in beating the Dolphins 27-17.
The Steelers (2-5) lost to the Oakland Raiders last week 21-18. It was a very disappointing loss where after an awful start in September, they had won two in a row and had seemingly turned the corner.
We'll post a detailed breakdown of the matchups later this week, but here are five first impressions of the Pittsburgh Steelers:
Running Game Still a Concern: When one thinks of the Steelers, the first impression is of the power running game, but after a lot of changes in the backfield, injuries as well as struggles in the play of the offensive line, the running game is still stuck in neutral.
The team drafted Le'Veon Bell from Michigan St. in the 2nd round of the 2013 NFL Draft to be their workhorse and after being banged up for the beginning of the season, he's starting to come on a bit as of late.
The Steelers are in unfamiliar territory with their running game averaging only 68.7 yards per game on the ground which is 30th in the NFL. But with the deluge of injuries in the center of the defense for New England, and with Bell, the type of runner who gives the Patriots a tough time, expect that number to rise this week.
Creating Turnovers An Issue:Pittsburgh's defense has had issues creating turnovers in 2013, forcing just five this season. When the offense has been struggling to score points (125) thus far, having the defense give them a short field would be of great benefit.
But they haven't been able to do much in that department, with the Steelers having been the last team to force a turnover in 2013. With QB Tom Brady having thrown an interception in the last four games, this is an area that the Steelers will look to rectify on Sunday.
Injuries Add To Woes on OL: The Steelers have had issues protecting QB Ben Roethlisberger the past few years. And this season he's been sacked 27 times and is on pace for 59. Unacceptable numbers for a team that wants to make the playoffs.
The Raiders sacked Roethlisberger five times on Sunday, and to make matters worse, both starting guards, David DeCastro and Ramon Foster were forced to leave the game due to injury.
Those injuries will have to be monitored as the injury reports come out this week as these could affect both the passing and running games.
Pittsburgh's Weapons Potent Thru The Air: The Steelers lost WR Mike Wallace via free agency this spring but they still have some very good options in the passing game. The Steelers average 253 yards per game passing, ranking 13th in the NFL.
Antonio Brown has become the go-to guy for the Steelers at the wide receiver position in 2013 and he's putting up some very good numbers. He's caught 56 passes for 630 yards and 2 touchdowns.
Patriots fans will get to see Emmanuel Sanders on Sunday but in a different uniform than they envisioned in the spring. The Patriots made an offer for the restricted free agent Sanders but Pittsburgh ultimately matched their offer and the speedy Sanders has 31 catches for 396 yards and 2 touchdowns.
And when discussing the Steelers passing game, TE Heath Miller can never be far from the conversation. Miller remains a threat to move the chains and has 20 catches for 225 yards and 1 touchdown on the season.
Mesko Struggling: Former Patriots punter Zoltan Mesko who was cut in training camp, was a late signing for the Steelers who replaced Drew Butler at the end of Pittsburgh's camp and was supposed to upgrade the special teams.
But Mesko has struggled badly this season with a net average of only 36.7 (29th) and just three punts inside the 20 on the season. He bobbled a snap in Oakland and had a punt partially blocked.
Mesko might be on thin ice in Steel City but maybe punting in familiar environs may cure what ails him. Time will tell.

It has been one year since the U.S. Supreme Court officially blessed the redefinition of marriage and opened the federal floodgates to a wave of (largely successful) lawsuits by same-sex couples.
In the past 12 months, there has been a tectonic shift not only in the courts, but in popular opinion. Those who support a traditional definition of marriage — just as President Barack Obama did only a few years ago — are now on the defensive. Even the Church is struggling to find the language to explain what has been its teaching for 2,000 years without sounding prejudiced or spiteful.
What makes the task even more difficult is that many self-identified Catholics tell pollsters they don't agree with their Church either. I wrote recently about two incidents in which Catholic students and parents vociferously objected to speakers defending the Church's teaching on marriage.
While such protests suggest a wide divergence in the pews, the Church also is being dragged into the courts by lawsuits filed when diocesan, parish or school employees marry their same-sex partners and then lose their jobs. As recent moves in Ohio and elsewhere illustrate, the Church now tries to shield itself from such suits with preemptive contracts explicitly stating what is expected of its employees, but those in turn are creating another backlash. The lawyers may be reducing risk but raising ire.
Where this all will lead is anyone's guess, but the future does look ominous. No matter how the Church tries to articulate its position, there is, at least at this moment, a reaction in the popular media against divergent viewpoints that is quite clearly intended to intimidate and silence.
Take the case of Brendan Eich. He was the hapless digital genius who created the JavaScript found in millions of computers. He also co-founded Mozilla, a company with a popular open-source Internet search engine called Firefox. Earlier this year he was appointed CEO.
Unfortunately, he had been outed two years ago on Twitter as someone who had donated $1,000 to support Proposition 8's definition of marriage as between one man and one woman. California law makes donors list their place of work, which brought criticism on Mozilla then. After his appointment as CEO in March, a campaign was begun to boycott Mozilla. Eich resigned in less than two weeks.
It is important to note that there were no charges that he had been discriminatory in the workplace. There were no charges that he had made derogatory comments or had acted in ways overtly hostile to people with same-sex attraction or that he had imposed a hostile environment at Mozilla or any place else.
Eich's only sin, and it was apparently mortal, was that he had dared to support the traditional concept of marriage by quietly making a political donation.
Many people of goodwill are struggling with this issue now, and Catholics are no different. The Church has a huge pastoral and catechetical problem that to date it has not been able to address effectively on a broad scale. My concern, however, is that those who accept that the Church's teachings in this area are true may soon pay a price for such beliefs. Catholic institutions may not be always immune from the wrath of the courts, and Catholic individuals — whether lawyers or doctors or bakers or photographers — who accept this teaching may expect a backlash as well.
So make that two challenges the U.S. Church faces. The first is how to teach effectively what it believes. The second is something it has not had to worry about in a long time: preparing people for the price that may be exacted for believing what they have been taught.

PHOENIX, AZ – With his presidential bid seen as lost, John McCain is putting a Flux Capacitor on the Straight Talk Express. It appears that the GOP is resorting to time travel to secure the election. McCain is expected to travel back in time later this evening and change several strategies of his earlier campaign.
Campaign officials have gone on record assuring voters that the time machine is eco-friendly and will run on all natural fusion from renewable Venusian grade Dark Matter.
There is much speculation about what strategic changes McCain will make, including whether he will pick a new running mate. When asked about having her relevancy erased from existence, Palin instead talked about American Exceptionalism and rural anecdotes.
A functional time machine is currently being installed by the MIT Motor-Shop class who put the hydraulics, hover-conversion, and 13" sub-woofers on Stephen Hawking's motorized chair. McCain hopes the new "Tricked Out" look will help him appeal to younger voters.
Further changes in the timeline are not expected by the Arizona senator as the Republican campaign can only afford enough fuel to send him back roughly three months.

'American Idol' Contestant Phillip Phillips Hosptialized
'American Idol' favorite Phillip Phillips had a bit of a health scare this week. While contestants fainted left and right during the audition rounds and during Group Week in Hollywood, Phillips' medical malady was not due to stress from the show. He was hospitalized for a pre-existing condition: kidney stones. We've never had 'em ourselves, but by all accounts, they are supposedly one of the most painful things a body can endure.
TMZ reports that Phillips' dad revealed his son had five procedures to remove kidney stones and he has been dealing with them since October. Aw, the poor guy. You'd never know he was in excruciating pain since he often performs so flawlessly and is such a joy to watch.
Phillips appeared on 'Idol' last night, March 8, to find out that his out-of-the-box rendition of Stevie Wonder's 'Superstitious' was enjoyed by viewers, who gave him enough votes to move forward to the next round. He referenced his condition briefly in a chat with Ryan Seacrest, while his dad said, prior to the live results episode, that his son is determined to keep going and will postpone further procedures for now. What a trooper.
PopCrush wishes Phillip Phillips the best while he battles kidney stones.

If you are planning on moving into a new apartment in the near future, you might be thinking about a lot of criteria that your dream apartment should meet. If you are writing a list with all these conditions, you might want to add security and maintenance to it. Many people who have rented apartments in Gastonia NC come to the conclusion that they should have asked their landlords some more questions about these issues as they are very rarely discussed before signing a lease
When you are thinking of moving into an apartment, you might want to check crime information in your vicinity. You can ask your landlord or some friends about how safe it is to live in the neighborhood you want to move in. You might also check safety of the building. It is safer that there is a pass code or key to the main entrance of the building so that you can control who gets in. You might also think about changing the door lock. After all, you can't know who lived there before and who has a key to your apartment. Maybe you should also check the window locks. And if you don't have a peephole, you should ask for one on your door so that you can see who stands at your door. Another important aspect is lighting. The peephole may be completely functional if there is no or very bad lighting in the hallway. Street lighting is also important, especially if you have to walk in the neighborhood at night. How about visiting your dream apartment at night? Would you be comfortable walking through the streets and on the hallway alone at night? If not, you might want to reconsider moving there.
Let's say you rent a large apartment with all the facilities you can dream of like Jacuzzi, washing machine, sauna. But what if a serious drainage problem shows up? If the landlord is not willing to fix the problem in time, or if he always postpones repairs, then you might never be able to enjoy all these facilities. So, go ahead and ask the landlord if maintenance issues are fixed in time, before they become serious. How fast are repairing requests handled? Is there a superintendent who lives in the building and can be called if needed? You might also check or ask if the electric circuit is well maintained. Asking all these questions and all the others that come to your mind can save you from a lot of stress and inconvenience. And if the landlord does not want to answer them, you can ask the tenants. If they aren't pleased with the maintenance, they will tell you about it for sure.
So if you haven't signed the lease yet, you might want to pay one more visit to your future landlord and ask all these questions. It's better this way than being sorry afterwards about living in an unsafe zone or building or fuming because the toilet is out of order again.

#16 South Dakota State Cinches Almost Certain Playoff Spot with 42-13 Win at #15 Youngstown State
Before Saturday's must-win game at Youngstown State, South Dakota State head coach John Stiegelmeier challenged his players to have their 'best games of the year' - and they responded in a big way - dominating #15 Youngstown State 42-13 to wrap up an almost certain FCS playoff spot for the second straight season.
On a snowy Ohio day that made throwing the ball tricky at times, the Jacks opted to do their damage running the ball, grinding out a season-high 302 yards rushing. Junior Zach Zenner with 186 of those (149 in the first half) to go with two rushing touchdowns and a receiving touchdown.
SDSU went to Zenner early and often Saturday. Five carries on each of the Jacks first three scoring drives - one that ended with a Reggie Gandy 22-yard touchdown run, one that ended with an Austin Sumner to Zenner 3-yard touchdown pass, and one that started with a Charles Elmore interception and ended with a Zenner 6-yard touchdown run.
Throughout the first half, the Jackrabbits only made two mistakes.
The first was a punt that hit Austin Knowlton in the leg, allowing YSU to recover and later convert into a touchdown. The other allowing a one-play touchdown drive as Kurt Hess hit Martin Ruiz for a 63-yard score to make it 21-13 late in the second quarter.
But the Jacks responded right before halftime when Sumner hit Trevor Wesley for a 35-yard gain to the Penguin 23 yard line, and five plays later, with :40 left in the half, Sumner put SDSU back up by 15 with an 8-yard touchdown pass to Jason Schneider to make it 28-13 at the break.
Sumner was very efficient in the first half - 8-of-10 passing for 88 yards and two touchdowns.
In the second half, the defense made sure the Penguins weren't going to get any closer.
RC Kilgore picked off Hess on YSU's second possession, and SDSU converted eight plays later on a quarterback draw from Sumner covered seven yards, and the rout was on at 34-13.
The defense got the ball back again in the fourth quarter when Jack Sherlock sacked Hess on fourth down at the SDSU 46. The Jacks converted again, Sumner to Trevor Tiefenthaler for 32 yards to the 4, and then Zenner finished off the drive from the one to make it 42-13.
The Jackrabbits out gained the Penguins 472-213 in total offense and held the ball 36:51 compared to just 19:56 for Youngstown State.
Sumner finished 15-of-19 for 170 yards and 2 touchdowns, Schneider had 7 catches for 59 yards and a score.
The win moves South Dakota State to 8-4 on the season, 5-3 in Missouri Valley Conference play. In all, four teams (SDSU, YSU, Southern Illinois, and Missouri State) finished 5-3, but the Jacks have the inside track to the playoffs with 8 wins total. Southern Illinois only has seven and Missouri State 6. Youngstown State, despite finishing with an identical 8-4/5-3 record as SDSU is considered a long shot for post season play, finishing the year with a three-game losing streak.
South Dakota State will officially find out its playoff fate during Sunday morning's FCS Selection show on ESPNU at 10:30 Central.

Sleepless nights for wildlife carers as road kills reach peak over summer
The bodies of road kill victims strewn along busy highways are a confronting sight for motorists on summer holidays.
An estimated 86,000 native animals are killed each year on Australian roads and many others are seriously injured.
At this time of year volunteer wildlife carers are kept busy nursing injured or orphaned animals.
But specialist wildlife care is being pioneered in southern New South Wales.
Majors Creek couple nursing animals back to health
Leslie and Bill Waterhouse have been volunteer wildlife rescuers for a decade.
They proudly hold Precious and Tumble, two tiny bare nosed wombats who lost their mothers.
"She's called Tumble because when her mum was hit by the car, the man in the car behind it saw a little pinkie come out of the pouch," Ms Waterhouse said.
"This is Precious. She's a road orphan. Most of the ones we get in are roadkill orphans."
The couple live at Majors Creek east of Canberra and regularly collect injured wildlife from the Kings, Hume, Princes and Monaro Highways.
Bill Waterhouse describes the local road carnage as beyond belief.
"We have found 400 dead wombats in a year just in our nearby region, and we have had a month where we counted 70 dead wombats, " he said.
"There would be thousands and thousands on the Kings Highway [between Canberra and Batemans Bay] every year.
The couple are currently caring for 12 injured wombats, including 4 orphaned wombat babies, and an injured kangaroo at their home.
"The sleeplessness doesn't come about from the phone calls from the public, the sleeplessness comes about from the four-hourly feeds," Mr Waterhouse said.
Pioneering treatment of injured wildlife in old shearing shed at Braidwood
The treatment of injured, wild animals is often complicated, costly and almost non-existent in regional areas.
Dr Howard Ralph created his specialist site five years ago by converting a shearing shed on his Braidwood property.
"The same level of care is required for a wildlife patient as is required for any other animal, be it a domestic species like a dog or a cat or a human primate," he said.
"They still require the same level of care and we try to provide this."
The bulk of Dr Ralph's patients are injured on roads, and his practice relies on community goodwill, volunteers and charitable donations.
"[We focus on] saving lives, easing pain, dealing with things that can be treated and should be treated," he said.
But it is a big struggle financially and we took a really big hit when the financial crisis occurred.
"I feel frustration that wildlife do not get the respect they should get.
"They are living, sentient beings that feel pain and suffering, and should be treated with compassion."
Road kill orphans face uncertain future after recovery
Leslie Waterhouse says when they first started taking in animals the couple looked forward to release day.
"Now we really hate it because you don't know what's going to happen to them," she said.
"One of the things that we find really upsetting is when people hit them, they don't even bother to stop."
The eight-month-old female joeys Tumble and Precious each weigh about 2.5 kilograms.
Tumble's injured jaw may need to be realigned before she is released into the wild.
"They do actually turn back into wild wombats and would gladly rip your hand off," Ms Waterhouse said.
A heart-warming thought with two more years of fostering the baby wombats ahead for the Waterhouses.
They are urging drivers to slow down and avoid adding to the road-kill statistics.

This Headline Might Change Your Life
Editorial director John Swansburg chats about a hyperbolic Slate headline with its author.
This content is free to all Slate readers to promote our membership program, Slate Plus. Try Slate Plus free for two weeks! To learn more, go to slate.com/plus
John Swansburg: Thanks for joining me for this inaugural Slate Plus Headline Chat. Your recent Do It Right video, in which you showed Slate readers a very helpful trick for maximizing the performance of their ziplock bags, is an area where I think we could all stand to improve.
L.V. Anderson: I'm happy you think that.
Swansburg: Keeping leftovers fresh, and the efficient use of refrigerator space, are two of my passions. The headline you put on the post was "The Ziplock Bag Trick That Might Change Your Life." Now, that's a bold statement.
Anderson: It is a bold statement. And I went even bolder by claiming, in my very first sentence, "My suggestion that the trick contained in the below video might be life-changing is entirely serious." So I kind of threw down the headline gauntlet there.
Swansburg: You really did, and I admire that. Were you concerned, in writing that headline, that a certain kind of reader might find it, I don't know, hyperbolic?
Anderson: Yes, I was. Saying that something "might change your life" is a very BuzzFeed-y or Upworthy-esque headline trope, and, as you pointed out in your roundtable with Allison, David, Chad, and Julia, Slate usually tries to avoid sounding too much like BuzzFeed and Upworthy. But I assumed that many readers would see humor in the idea that a ziplock bag trick would be life-changing. I mean, we're not talking about a video that will change your mind about gay marriage. We're talking about ziplock bags.
Swansburg: Sure—an ideal reader sees the headline and says, OK, this trick will in all likelihood change my life at most modestly; Laura is clearly playing with the conventions of headline overstatement here. But what about the reader who doesn't quite clue into that, who misses your wink? As you pointed out, you doubled down in your opening sentence. You're saying my life is going to change, and you don't seem to be kidding—you said it twice!
Anderson: Yes, well, I had a feeling the video might be popular, and I wanted to do whatever I could to get people to watch it. I should back up and say that I've used this ziplock bag trick all my life, and for a long time I thought it was something everyone did. But on several occasions, I've sucked air out of a ziplock bag in front of a friend and discovered that he or she was mildly amazed by it. The discovery that you could suck air out of a ziplock bag was mildly mind-blowing.
Swansburg: It definitely blew my mind mildly.
Anderson: I assumed many viewers would have a similar reaction. And I guess I wanted to prime people. But it's worth debating whether a more effective—or at least more honest—method would have been to undersell the video. However, the other obstacle I had to consider while writing the headline was that I didn't want to give the trick away. Because when people figure out the content of a video ahead of time, they're less likely to actually watch the video.
Swansburg: So it seems like your logic had two steps, and it's interesting, because they're somewhat contradictory steps: On the one hand, you felt that the presence of ziplock in the headline signaled that we didn't have a solution to world hunger in this video. On the other hand, you truly do believe this is a life-changing trick, so the video backs up the hyperbole, to a degree. Those two things are slightly in opposition, but I see how they work in concert. See what happens when you start unpacking headlines! They contain multitudes.
Anderson: Yes, and I think the contradiction that you mention is a sign of my ambivalence about this and other hyperbolic headlines. I don't want people to feel deceived by headlines that I write. However, I do want readers to find my headlines amusing and intriguing. Whether they actually do find them amusing and intriguing probably depends on readers' individual sensibility.
Swansburg: I'm glad you brought up the fact that this was a video piece. You star in a lot of great Slate videos. Are there particular challenges to writing headlines for video pieces? It does seem like the hed has to do twice the work: get me to click over to the page, and then get me to click start on the video. That's a lot to ask of me!
Anderson: Indeed! I think perhaps part of the challenge is that my videos have evolved from showing a technique specific to an individual recipe—like cooking crêpes or wrapping tamales—to showing a much smaller, more discrete, and more universally applicable technique. (This ziplock technique, for instance, can be used for pretty much any food you put in a ziplock bag.) But the more discrete the technique, the easier it is to spoil, so to speak. In a video about cooking crêpes, I can mention three or four useful things to look for, but in a video about sucking the air out of ziplock bags, there's pretty much just that one thing.
Swansburg: Right, so you need to tantalize me without giving away all the goods.
You need me thinking to myself, What in the name of all that is holy is she going to do with that bag?!
Anderson: Exactly. And some readers, understandably, find the coyness of the headlines frustrating.
Swansburg: Do you have a favorite headline, either of all time, or of recent memory? Doesn't need to be from Slate—we here at the Headline Chat admire great headline writing wherever we find it.
Anderson: Ooh! Good question. Well, one headline that comes to mind, and one that is pertinent to this chat, is the Onion's recent "Christ, Article a Video." (The piece was about the frustration readers feel when they click what they think is an article, only to discover that it's a video.) I'm a total sucker for headlines that poke fun at newspaper headline conventions, which is also something they do at the Awl a lot, too. Obviously, that type of satire wouldn't work at Slate, but I like to admire it from afar.
Swansburg: That's a great one. We do every now and then try to play with newspaper conventions at Slate, but really, you're never going to out-Onion the Onion. Laura, thank you so much for joining me for this Headline Chat, for writing that just-the-right-amount-of-hyperbolic headline, and for this indispensable baggie trick. Henceforth I will divide my life into the pre- and post-ziplock-trick eras.

Ibanez's sac fly lifts Halos in ninth inning
TORONTO -- In two high-leverage spots late in Friday's contest, the Blue Jays intentionally walked Albert Pujols to get to Raul Ibanez.
The second time, it cost Toronto the game.View Full Game Coverage
TORONTO -- In two high-leverage spots late in Friday's contest, the Blue Jays intentionally walked Albert Pujols to get to Raul Ibanez.
The second time, it cost Toronto the game.View Full Game Coverage
Ibanez hit a sacrifice fly in the ninth, and Ernesto Frieri retired the side in order in the bottom half of the frame to propel the Angels to a 4-3 series-opening victory over the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre.
"You prepare, do all this work, and you feel like you're supposed to get the job done," said Ibanez, who walked three times and recorded his first stolen base since 2012. "When you don't, you're disappointed, and when you do, you help the team. That's really the most important thing.
"I have a job to do, which is get the guy in, and that's what happened."
Erick Aybar hit a leadoff triple off Blue Jays lefty Brett Cecil (0-3) to start the ninth, his third extra-base hit of the game, and Mike Trout reached on an error to put two on with none out. The Blue Jays then intentionally walked Pujols for the second time of the game to get to Ibanez, and the designated hitter's sac fly allowed Aybar to score from third without a throw to give the Halos a 4-3 lead.
In the seventh inning, a similar situation unfolded.
Aybar hit a one-out single before Toronto put Pujols on to get to Ibanez. That plan also backfired, as Toronto reliever Sergio Santos lost a six-pitch battle to walk Ibanez, which prompted a pitching change. Steve Delabar, who entered for Santos, walked Howie Kendrick on four straight pitches with the bases juiced, allowing the Angels to go ahead, 3-2.
Ibanez, a 19-year veteran, has played this game long enough to not feel slighted by Toronto's strategy.
"I'm not emotional about it; Albert is a great hitter and I'm just looking to get the job done," Ibanez said. "Just trying to focus on stuff that deals with your emotions. I didn't have any emotional response at all."
Frieri worked a clean ninth, punching out the final two batters to record his fourth save.
It was a strong bounce-back performance for him after he allowed a ninth-inning homer in a 4-3 loss to the Yankees his last time out.
Frieri, who opened the season as the Angels' closer, temporarily lost his job to Joe Smith, and it now appears the duo will split duties depending on the matchup. The 28-year-old Frieri said he doesn't care about being designated as the team's closer. He just wants to win.
"Whenever they feel like they need me, I'm going to be ready," Frieri said. "Doesn't matter what inning, doesn't matter what situation. I'm a competitor. I just want to compete, it doesn't matter what situation."
The Angels' ninth-inning rally was only necessary after Smith, who was credited with his second win, surrendered a homer to Jose Reyes -- his third blast of the year -- in the eighth to make it a 3-3 game.
Angels starter Garrett Richards was only at the 95-pitch mark after seven innings, but the club believed Smith was the right arm to turn to with the top of Toronto's lineup -- Reyes, Melky Cabrera and Jose Bautista -- due up.
The plan ultimately didn't work out, but there was no second-guessing from bench coach Dino Ebel, who is filling in as the club's manager until Sunday.
"That's what we did and that was the game plan going in," Ebel said. "[Pitching coach Mike] Butcher and I talked about it before the game even started that if we got late in the game, seventh or eighth innings, and those guys were coming up, then we were going with Smith, and that's what we did."
Richards had command issues early, throwing three wild pitches in the first three innings to give him a Major League-leading seven on the season. Toronto scored its first two runs off the wild pitches, but Richards was able to get into a groove after that.
He responded by throwing seven innings of two-run ball, while walking two and striking out six. It was Richards' fifth quality start and sixth time he has struck out at least six batters.
"I was a little soggy today, but I just wanted to come out and give us a chance to win and try to as deep into the game as possible," said Richards, who remains unbeaten after seven starts. "I started figuring out a little bit more feel in the third inning and started settling down a little bit. We got a win and that's all that matters."
Blue Jays starter Dustin McGowan lasted five innings, allowed two runs on seven hits, walked two and struck out a pair. He labored through most of the contest, but the Angels were largely unable to capitalize against him.
The Angels scored their first run against McGowan on an RBI single from Collin Cowgill, which scored Efren Navarro from second. Navarro, who was called up from Triple-A Salt Lake prior to the game, doubled in his first two at-bats of the season.
Trout scored Los Angeles' second run an inning later when he crushed McGowan's 1-0 offering to dead center field for his seventh homer to put the Angels in front, 2-1.
"You've got to be careful with them," McGowan said. "There's no letdown at any point and they keep you on your toes the whole time."
Los Angeles, which improved to 3-8 in one-run games and snapped Toronto's season-high five-game winning streak, has won eight of its last nine games against the Blue Jays.

Oh Ji Ho is in contention for Man of the Equator
Oh Ji-ho leader cast in "Equator Man" KBS2 new drama?
The production company for "The Equator Man" commented about the casting whereabouts of Oh Ji-ho.
It was reported on February 6th that Oh Ji-ho was likely to be cast for the KBS 2TV drama "The Equator Man".
A high ranking spokesperson for the production told OSEN on the phone, "We did offer him a role but we also have other candidates. We are looking through the list again to choose the most suitable actor for the character".
"The Equator Man" is about the story of two men with strong passions. Writer Kim In-young and producer Kim Yong-su WI have come together for this production. This drama is set to be broadcast after the drama "Wild Romance" and will start shooting as soon as the cast has been confirmed.
To The World You Are Someone, But To Someone You Are The World!!!
Lee Jun-hyuk cast in Uhm Tae-woong TV series.
Lee Jun-hyuk will be making his way back to the small screen, playing the childhood friend of Uhm Tae-woong in an upcoming KBS TV series.
A press release by Wellmade STARM said that Lee will take on the adult role of Lee Jang-il, with the younger version played by ZE:A member Siwan, in KBS' Wednesday and Thursday drama "Man of the Equator" (translated title) set to air on March 14.
In "Man," Lee, born into a poor family, grows up to become a star inspector and betrays his childhood friend (Uhm) for his own honor and success.
The series is scripted by famed scenarist Kim In-young and will focus on people's desire, love and forgiveness.
"This will be the second time I play an inspector after 'City Hunter' while I was fascinated with the series because it deals with an individual's desire and love," Lee said in the statement.
Lee first made his debut through a music video in 2006 and has since appeared in over half a dozen dramas and several movies.
He is well-known in the China region for his brief appearance in SBS' "Secret Garden" and gained further popularity after starring in "City Hunter" last year with Lee Min-ho.
He recently starred in China's HunanTV's mini-series "50% of a Fairytale" (translated title) with Chinese actors Janine Chang and Zixiao Zhu.
To The World You Are Someone, But To Someone You Are The World!!!
Lee Jun Hyuk!!!! I loved him in City Hunter even though a lot of netizens hated his character there. The only other series where he plays a lead role is in I Am Legend. I hope he gets main lead in the future! Funny how his character in Equator is somehow like his minor role in City Hall--the betrayal part that is.
I might pick this up because of him and because the screenwriter was the one who wrote The Woman Who Still Wants to Marry, which had good reviews in blogs.
Park Si Yeon joins The Equator Man
Park Si Yeon married to a worker of a securities firm on November 19, 2011.
And after a couple months enjoying married life, the 32-year-old actress finally finds the perfect time for her acting job as she decided to join the cast of new KBS drama The Equator Man.
The arrival of Park Si Yeon completes the four lead roles of The Equator Man as the drama previously cast Uhm Tae Woong, Lee Joon Hyuk and Lee Bo Young.
Although it's very likely that Park Si Yeon will play the second lead role, but we're very happy with this casting news as we're so in love with her during Coffee House.
To The World You Are Someone, But To Someone You Are The World!!!
This drama has a pretty solid cast (Uhm Tae Woong, Lee Bo Young, Park Si Yeon, etc). I wasn't planning on watching this drama, but now I'm reconsidering it...
Starting fresh & making a new account. Come and try to find me. :p
Im Jeong-eun joins "Equator Man" as Lee Joon-hyeok's partner
Actress Lim Jeong-eun has joined the new KBS2 drama "The Equator Man".
Lim Jeong-eun is going to be taking on the role of Soo-mi, who is obsessed with success, a role Park Si-yeon was predicted to take at one point. The character has a strong ambition, and will ruthlessly exploit her past to get the man she wants.
Her management company, T Entertainment, said, "Lim Jeong-eun has currently completed filming the JTBC drama "When Women Powder Twice" and shooting photos for the poster of "The Equator Man". She will start filming the drama soon".
Meanwhile, "The Equator Man" is about Seon-woo and Jang-il, two men who have strong desires and lofty goals. This is the male version of the 2008 KBS2 drama "Women in the Sun".

KBS Shares Two Teasers Of "Equator Man", Starring Uhm Tae Woong & Lee Jun Hyuk
With the exception of casting news, Equator Man has pretty much been flying under the radar, overshadowed by other upcoming dramas, such as Rooftop Prince, King 2 Hearts, and Fashion King. However, KBS is finally throwing some PR its way by releasing two new teasers, featuring its male leads Uhm Tae Woong and Lee Jun Hyuk.
The teasers have the seeming existential heroes by the sea: Jun Hyuk as a terrified and tortured Lee Jang Il on a rocky cliff with waves crashing against it while a troubled Kim Sun Woo (Uhm Tae Woong) strolls through a calm yet empty beach, the quiet tide accepting his offering—a picture of childhood friends.

She loves Jang-il in the drama and in order to have him she uses his past to manipulate him.
Her management agency, 4HIM Entertainment said, "Park Se-yeong has been portrayed as trendy and cheerful all the while, but this time she will portray a stronger and more mature character who yearns for the love of one man, showing the how a lonely youth matures".
