With pitchers and catchers set to report to Bradenton in under 48 hours, there is still one thing driving Pittsburgh Pirates fans crazy – the need for an upgrade at first base.
While an acquisition of a first baseman would be nice and it is something that general manager Neal Huntington is still working on, I have to ask the question of whether an addition is needed in order for the Pirates to compete in 2014.
That answer is no. The Bucs will be just fine.
Just keep this in mind. The Pirates won 94 games last season with the likes of Garrett Jones and Gaby Sanchez platooning at the position for most of the 2013 season.
That is the same Jones that hit .233 last season. The same Jones that hit only 10 homers through the month of July prompting for the Bucs to eventually acquire Justin Morneau. The same Jones who had an OBP of only .289, an OPS of only.708 and a WAR of a mere 0.1 and the Bucs managed to make the playoffs.
It will be nice if Huntington can add to the Pirates lineup but it isn't a necessity and the team will be competitive if he fails to do so.
Sanchez will be just fine and could be the key to the Pirates lineup this season.
While he played primarily against left-handed pitching a season ago and performed very well doing so, he could see an increased role in 2014.
That's not the best scenario in the world, but it's not any worse scenario than the team had at the position last year. While Sanchez is not the typical first baseman in terms of a power bat, his .361 on-base percentage last season would have ranked 14th in the National League if he had enough at-bats to qualify for the batting title.
One thing the Pirates lineup needs is guys to get on base more often. Sure Sanchez's splits aren't very good against right-handers, but given more at bats he could surprise. Jones didn't offer a very good option against RHP and the Bucs managed to get by just fine.
This team is and will be in the future, built on pitching and homegrown talent. The Bucs can't go out and acquire major free agents to fill voids, not that there were many upgrades to be had on the open market this year anyway.
That brings me to Andrew Lambo, who as I noted in the past could form the other half of an above-average platoon.
With the marginal talent out there to be had, I would much rather at least see the Pirates give a homegrown prospect like Lambo a shot to start the season than give up assets for an average player.
Then Huntington can get a good look at Lambo and address the need during the season, similar to what he did last season with the acquisition of Morneau. There will be better options during the season to be acquired than there are right now.
But the Bucs will continue to search for a first baseman to start against right-handers, Rob Biertempfel of the Tribune-Review writes. They might not acquire him until the end of spring training, when teams might be more motivated to make trades as they try to set their rosters.
I am fine with that as long as it is a good fit. If it isn't, I'm also fine entering the 2014 season with what the Pirates currently have.
A move would be nice, but it isn't a necessity. The Pirates aren't any worse at the position than they were a season ago and they came out of it just fine.

DeMint has been a destructive force, threatening to primary colleagues, resisting all deals and offering very little in the way of attainable legislation. He has contributed more than any current senator to the dysfunction of that body. He has worsened relations between the House and Senate, as he did in the budget fights in recent years, by meddling and pressuring his home state representative. His departure leaves other senators who seemed impressed with his brand of politics free to find their way to a more constructive position in the body.The Washington Post's Jennifer Rubin • Discussing why Jim DeMint's departure from the Senate is a good thing for Congress … though it could prove much worse down the road, due to the influence he'll yield as head of the Heritage Foundation. Rubin suggests he hurts the Heritage brand. "By embracing him, Heritage, to a greater extent than ever before, becomes a political instrument in service of extremism, not a well-respected think tank and source of scholarship," she writes. "Every individual who works there should take pause and consider whether the reputation of that institution is elevated or diminished by this move. And I would say the same, frankly, if any other non-scholarly pol took that spot."
South Carolina U.S. Senator Jim DeMint will replace Ed Feulner as president of the Heritage Foundation. Mr. DeMint will leave his post as South Carolina's junior senator in early January to take control of the Washington think tank, which has an annual budget of about $80 million.
Sen. DeMint's departure means that South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, a Republican, will name a successor, who will have to run in a special election in 2014. In that year, both Mr. DeMint's replacement and Sen. Lindsey Graham will be running for reelection in South Carolina.
Mr. DeMint was reelected to a second term in 2010. The 61-year-old senator had announced earlier that he would not seek a third term.
WTF? WTF? (ht @ethanklapper)

Another visit in Arkham, another wonderful gamespectatorx | Sept. 28, 2014 | See all spectatorx's reviews »
Did you play Arkham Asylum? So you have to play Arkham City! More of everything: enemies, thugs, riddles (i hate some of Riddler's trophies xD ), side missions, little interesting things to do. This happens very, very rarely when i finish game completely or close to complete and Arkham City is one of these games: completed main story, almost all side missions (Riddler, i hate you) and played dlc story. Catwoman climbing is a bit tricky and needs some time to train it but is very satisfying when you master it. Harley's DLC is very short and fairly easy, but still worth to play because you can play as Robin who got some different moves and gadgets than Batman and Catwoman. This complete edition is a must buy, with just basic edition you will miss some nice things, difference in price, especially on sells is margin so choose wisely and buy GOTY.
Great game! A little repetitive though.adboyum | Sept. 10, 2014 | See all adboyum's reviews »
I've played the first two of the Arkham games, and this one is leaps and bounds better than the first!
I really liked the gameplay and feel of Arkham Asylum, and Arkham City has that same feel and gameplay, but a hundred times better! The significantly larger map size makes the game much more enjoyable because you're able to feel more freedom as Batman to kick some serious butt! You aren't confined to a small space in this game. The world is your oyster.
It has the same dark and menacing feel of the first game, but some awesome new gadgets that you can use!
My only one draw back is, like the first game, after endless hours of doing very similar moves, kicking some very similar butt, it does become a little bit repetitive. That only happens after hours of fun though! Definitely recommend this game!
Worthy successor to Arkham Asylum!Coalfax | Sept. 9, 2014 | See all Coalfax's reviews »
While it may have taken me awhile to actually get around to getting this followup to Arkham Asylum, it was well worth the purchase. The GOTY edition and all of its additional content was extremely entertaining, and I was almost unable to put it down for the entirety of the time it took for me to get through the story. I still have many challenges to get through as well. Voice acting was spot on, and Mark Hamill in particular will sorely be missed.
Best game of the seriesvikas8395 | Sept. 5, 2014 | See all vikas8395's reviews »
This game will be greatly enjoyed by both batman fans and those who are not. From beautiful graphics to a strong and interesting storyline, the player would be glued from the start to the finish of this game. The game play went very smoothly with no faults. Perfect details, fantastic characters and definitely one of the greatest games ever. A must for all batman fans
A game everyone should play!N2tZ | Sept. 3, 2014 | See all N2tZ's reviews »
Batman Arkham City: GOTY is an amazing game with countless hours of thug-bashing fun.
The atmosphere of Arkham City is immersive and full of surprises. Riddler trophies behind every corner and loads of riddles to look out for. The combat is great and feels natural, who doesn't love ripping a riot shield to pieces with their bare hands. The story of Arkham City is compelling and full of twists, keeping you on the edge of your seat the entire time. The player meets many new characters and even ones from Arkham Asylum. The new playable characters are very enjoyable as well, each with a new story to experience. With the addition of the different skins for Batman, players can customize their experience by using their favorite look for the Dark Knight. The soundtrack is excellent and greatly adds to the immersion of the game.
Overall, I suggest getting Batman Arkham City: Game of the Year Edition. You'll get hours of fun, countless of thugs to beat up, hundreds of trophies to collect and loads of side quests to solve.

This weekend will be the first chance we have to see the 2012 Bills Draft class in a Buffalo uniform, when all Bills rookies take part in the annual Rookie Mini-Camp. The camp is schedule to run from Friday, May 11 to Sunday, May 13.
In addition to Buffalo's drafted talent, the team's undrafted free agents will participate as well. Joining them will be a group of 21 additional "tryout" players. This group is not officially on the Buffalo roster as of yet and will be looking for an opportunity to impress the Bills coaching staff and win an invite to training camp.
The list of tryout players: C Taylor Boggs – Humboldt State, RB Zach Brown – Pittsburgh, DE Vince Browne – Northwestern, TE Derek Buttles – Maine, WR Roddell Carter – Alabama-Birmingham, LB Nick Clark – Alfred, CB Dominic Cook – Buffalo, WR Gino Crump – Arizona, FB Dorin Dickerson – Pittsburgh, DE Sean Ferguson– Mississippi State, WR Kevin Fitzpatrick – Marist, DE Corey Hart – Alabama A&M, DT Johnny Hollins – Texas Southern, LB Emmanuel Lamur – Kansas State, CB Byron Mulkey – Buffalo, S Nick Saenz – Houston, WR Derek Session – Maine, DE Bernard Smith – Louisiana-Lafayette, QB Alex Tanney – Monmouth College, LB Jeff Thomas – Indiana, DT Logan Walls – Georgia Tech
Some of these guys are undoubtedly just bodies that will be used to provide a little competition for the guys under contract. A few will no doubt find their way to camp this summer, though. The name that jumps out is Alex Tanney, the QB from D-III school Monmouth. We've talked a little about him already, and he'll be one to watch this weekend. He's certainly got some talent, as this video of him doing "trick shots" suggests:

Golf Completes Opening Round Of Middleburg Bank Intercollegiate
Edmister scores 72 (+2) on Sunday for 16th place Bearcats
March 20, 2014Tweet
Round One Individual Leaderboard
WILLIAMSBURG, VA.—The Binghamton golf team shot an opening round 304 (+24) at the Middleburg Bank Intercollegiate hosted by William & Mary on Sunday. After round one action, Binghamton finds themselves in a tie for 16th place out of 27 schools competing at the River Course at Kingsmill Resort.
Senior Bryce Edmister led the way for BU, carding a 72 (+2) in Williamsburg. Edmister opened up his round on the back-nine and got off to a strong start. He birdied the par 4 10th hole and managed to collect another birdie on the long par 5 15th to jump to -2. A double bogey at 18 brought him to even after his first nine holes as he made the turn.
On the front, Edmister got back to red numbers after a birdie on two but fell into some trouble down the stretch. Over the next six holes, he gave four strokes back but was able to birdie his 18th and final hole to get back to +2. He sits in a tie for 15th place on the leaderboard as himself and the field of 140 chase leader Carter Jenkins of UNCG who shot -2 on Sunday.
With a 76 (+4), Jack Sedgewick finished round one with BU's next best score. Sedgewick managed just one birdie but was able to register a team-high 12 pars on Sunday. At +4, the junior is tied with 10 others in 65th.
Junior Josh Holling and newcomer Sameer Kalia both turned in matching scores of 78 from the River Course to close out the scoring for Binghamton. Kalia and Holling are in a tie for 88th place.
Eastern Michigan and 50th ranked Texas Tech are atop the leaderboard heading into second round play. Both schools shot a team score of 288 (+8) and are five strokes clear of third place schools Dayton, 48th ranked UNCG and hosts William and Mary.
Second round tee times begin at 8:30 tomorrow morning for the Bearcats as all 27 schools will play 18 holes from Kingsmill Resort.

There are meridians on the arms that are connected to organs and the entire body. So as you press on the physical body and release tension, it allows the energy in the body to flow.Phoebe Diftler
Crying, that is, sobbing is the earliest and deepest way to release tension. Infants can cry almost from the moment of birth, and do so easily following every stress that produces a state of tension in the body... Human beings are the only creatures who can react in this way to stress and tension. Most probably, they are the only ones who need this form of release.Alexander Lowen
Doing something positive will help turn your mood around. When you smile, your body relaxes. When you experience human touch and interaction, it eases tension in your body.Simone Elkeles

One always overcompensates for disabilities. I'm thinking of having my entire body surgically removed.Douglas Adams
My body is here, but my mind has already teed off.Unknown
A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith in their mission can alter the course of history.Mohandas K. Gandhi
Nursing is an art: and if it is to be made an art, it requires an exclusive devotion as hard a preparation, as any painter's or sculptor's work; for what is the having to do with dead canvas or dead marble, compared with having to do with the living body, the temple of God's spirit? It is one of the Fine Arts: I had almost said, the finest of Fine Arts.Florence Nightingale
As long as you have attachment to the body and attachment to objects, fear and suffering will be with you. Therefore, Krishna told Arjuna to develop his discrimination and rid himself of body consciousness. He told him that once he was free of body consciousness he would be able to develop integral vision.Sri Sathya Sai Baba
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.Marcus Tullius Cicero
Men speak of natural rights, but I challenge any one to show where in nature any rights existed or were recognized until there was established for their declaration and protection a duly promulgated body of corresponding lawsCalvin Coolidge
The lusts and greeds of the body scandalize the Soul; but it has to come to heel.Logan Pearsall Smith
My body and spirit are the only things that truly belong to me.Carrie Latet
Witchcraft, like any science or philosophical system, must be approached from a liberal point of view. When looked at objectively, we see that Witchcraft is just another theoretical body of knowledge. It is a process, not a person. Therefore it is neutral, incapable of being either good or evil. Like all belief systems, Witchcraft is only as good or evil as the people using it.LADY SABRINA
The essence of our effort to see that every child has a chance must be to assure each an equal opportunity, not to become equal, but to become different - to realize whatever unique potential of body, mind and spirit he or she possessesJohn Fischer

When the body is strong and the mind is weak, the result is insubordination. Train your mind as well as your body.Unknown
If you don't do what's best for your body, you're the one who comes up on the short end.Julius Erving
Take care of your body with steadfast fidelity. The soul must see through these eyes alone, and if they are dim, the whole world is clouded.Goethe
We need to think more about the nature of rhetoric in anthropology. There isn't a body of knowledge and thought to fall back on in this regard.Clifford Geertz
It can be shown that an incorporeal and reasonable being has life in itself independently of the body... then it is beyond a doubt bodies are only of secondary importance and arise from time to time to meet the varying conditions of reasonable creatures. Those who require bodies are clothed with them, and contrariwise, when fallen souls have lifted themselves up to better things their bodies are once more annihilated. They are ever vanishing and ever reappearing.Origen
There is no death. How can there be death if everything is part of the Godhead? The soul never dies and the body is never really alive.Isaac Bashevis
The soul comes from without into the human body, as into a temporary abode, and it goes out of it anew it passes into other habitations, for the soul is immortal." "It is the secret of the world that all things subsist and do not die, but only retire a little from sight and afterwards return again. Nothing is dead; men feign themselves dead, and endure mock funerals� and there they stand looking out of the window, sound and well, in some strange new disguise.Ralph Waldo Emerson

Microwave popcorn is a total scam. Not only are the bags full of strange and unpronounceable, verifiably bad-for-you ingredients, but making your own from scratch is not really any more difficult than zapping a bag before a movie. Plus, the huge advantage is that you can pick your own flavor. It's like a choose your own adventure novel. Remember those? True story: I always read them backwards. Turns out I have no patience. Which means I'm totally not lying to you about the ease of making popcorn from scratch.
Thai curry paste is one of the rare products that I will readily use despite it not being "from scratch." I have made curry paste from scratch. I have some great recipes I'm eager to try in the future. However. The availability of fresh ingredients such as kaffir lime leaves, cilantro roots, and chile peppers is hit or miss in my part of the planet.
And the commercial curry paste usage is not just here in the US–even in places where the products may be found locally, fresh, etc., curry pastes are popular. It's not like a cake mix. It's a combination of the best products at their best freshness that sits politely and quietly in the corner of your fridge.
In conclusion, I am okay with using (nice quality) curry pastes, unless I'm feeling extremely motivated, well-researched, and able to find the right, fresh ingredients.
Here's a link to find the type of curry paste I typically use, in case you don't have an Asian market nearby you:
Mae Ploy Thai Green Curry Paste
I never saw popcorn when I traveled through Thailand, but I did see grilled corn, and corn-flavored salty and sweet snacks. Corn flavored crackers were particularly prevalent. I always imagined corn and popcorn to be ultra-American, so I was confused for some time.
But now I get it. Corn is delicious. It spans the world with flavor. Therefore, curry + popcorn = YES.
Spicy Green Curry Popcorn
Spicy, exciting popcorn you can easily make at home in minutes.
- 1/3 c. popcorn kernels
- 1 t. coconut oil (plus more for popping)
- 1 t. green curry paste
- Heat a heavy bottomed pan on medium-high heat.
- Lightly coat bottom of pan with coconut oil (about 1/4 t.)
- Put several lone kernels in the pan and cover, cracking the lid just a sliver. Shake the pan on the burner frequently. When kernels pop, remove from pan and pour 1/3 c. kernels in, replacing lid as before.
- Keep shaking and moving the pan frequently to prevent burning.
- When all have popped, pour into a pan.
- Turn heat down to low and let the pan come down in temperature for a minute or two.
- Put coconut oil in pan and add the curry paste. Mix with a wood spoon until the paste colors slightly, only 30 seconds-1 minute.
- Scrape onto the popped corn and mix thoroughly. Use your hands for the best effect. Some paste may fall to the bottom of the bowl, so keep mixing!

Breakfast in the Burbs?
- d
- Displaced California Foodie Sep 26, 2006 12:59 PM
I moved here from California 5 years ago and have yet to find a great breakfast place in Montgomery County. I am not looking for a diner. Any suggestions?
re: Den
I have yet to have a good food experience at Bruno's - more low quality diner if you ask me. I'd recommend the West Avenue Grill in Jenkintown (for breakfast/brunch only - dinner is overpriced). Or if you're willing to go to Chestnut Hill - which isn't far from Montgomery County depending on where you are - Solaris or the Cafette are both good choices. The best breakfasts/brunches are in Philadelphia though and worth the drive - Morninglory on 10th and fitzwater is excellent.
I'm not sure if you're looking for an every day breakfast place or for Sunday brunch. I agree with the other poster that Cafette in Chestnut Hill offers a yummy brunch... though the wait on a Sunday morning can sometimes be ridiculous, my husband and I have left of a few occasions because of waits upwards of a half hour/hour. I cannot say I could recommend Solaris in Chestnut Hill, the location is good but I've never had a good meal there.
Agave Grill in Ambler offers a Sunday Brunch buffet. I've never been but heard rave reviews about it. KCs Alley also offers a brunch menu on Sundays. It is pretty good (good breakfast wraps)and a nice laid back pub atmosphere. Otto's in Horsham has great Sunday brunch, though the service can be a bit slow.
For everyday breakfast, there are some great places but you might not be able to avoid diner type atmosphere. Ambler Grill has a great (and reasonably priced) breafast, but it is definitely lacking in atmosphere. Hayeck's Cafe aso serves a good breakfast,but again the atmosphere is pretty bad.
re: AmblerGirl
Hayeck's Cafe is out of business. It's going to be replaced and we have high hopes that the new cafe will have greatly improved ambience.
re: JohnnyT
Pistachio Grille replaced Hayecks and has definitely improved the ambiance. We went for dinner a bit ago - the food was great. The service was a bit spotty, but I'll chalk that up to growing pains. You should go if you have not been - I definitely recommend it!
re: AmblerGirl
The Ambler Grill has changed hands. The new owner seems to have put some well needed money into the building. The menu has stayed the same with the exception of some new specials. They recently had an excellent cheese steak omelette and believe it or not lasagna which was also fantastic, Pricing is still better than reasonable and worth a look.
re: Btiggert3
I have been to the Ambler Grill a few times under the new owners and I feel they have remained consistent in terms of good quality food at reasonable prices. I agree they have definitely made some needed cosmetic improvements (though it still needs some help). But, again, this is not the type of place to go to if you are looking for ambiance. I agree the specials are really good - I had a breakfast burrito which was great. It definitely looks like a hole in the wall if you drive by but the food is great .
Definitely try Classic Diner- WAIT...it's not an actual diner, just a restaurant that uses diner in the name. they are open daily until 3pm, with a breakfast/lunch menu depending on your mood & time. It's on 30 in Malvern/Frazer area. So yummy and tons of varieties/choices!
And I do condider Bruno's like a diner.
Try Christine's Family Restaurant on Egypt Rd in Jeffersonville/Norristown area. The Classic Diner, mentioned by pamd, is in Chester County not Montgomery County.
re: picky_eater
Went back to Morninglory this morning and found they had changed from Sunday brunch buffet to Sunday breakfast buffet. Which basically just means that their buffet shrunk drastically. You can still order off a menu though, but we were quite dissapointed with the disapearance of a great brunch buffet...
Shorty's Sunshine cafe in Pottstown (north end) is pretty good. Service is a wee slow, but better than it used to be. expect a wait if your between church crowds.
I've heard the Parc Bistro in Skipack has a great sunday brunch...any thoughts on that?
I went to Parc Bistro once for brunch. It was empty except for us, which was unpleaant. Granted, we arrived at 11:00am but by the time we left I believe there was only one other table. Never wanted to go back.
Dear Displaced California Foodie,
Although not in Montco, a great breakfast joint is DaddyPops in Hatboro, Pa for that hometown diner feel. To get a little more elbow room, try right down the street in Hatboro a nice place called Lochel's. Service is lacking some times but the food is awesome, especially thier Lochele's breakfast potatoes.
re: bigfoodpig
Last time I looked, Hatboro was in eastern Montgomery County (Montco). Did it move?
Food at Hayeck's replacement is good, but service is lacking. Hope it's the new restaurant jitters and they get their act together soon. Hayeck's was my family's favorite place for a quick (or leisurely)simple breakfast.
Zake's (Cakes) in Fort Washington is great for breakfast & lunch: the food is fresh & creative, they bake their own excellent bread, the service is friendly, coffee/decaf is fab, and the ambience is comfortably downscale, but still acceptible to the ladies-who-lunch there on weekdaysy. Closed sundays. Try the house omlet at breakfast, and any of the sandwiches/salads at lunch, especially the duck, shrimp+rice noodles, grilled tuna, and the vegetarian ones. Soups and dinners are on the sweet side.
Limerick, PA.... The Casual Gourmet.... great breakfast and lunch. Weekends are a wait but well worth it. Great Cofee....

Excited and Terrified... - Bangkok, Thailand
So, I am booked in to get surgery with Dr Pichet...
So, I am booked in to get surgery with Dr Pichet in Bangkok Thailand on Saturday and I am terrified! I will also be getting a Tummy tuck at the same time.. But the count down begins! Fingers crossed all goes well :) will continue to post as I go. I have before pictured, but as you can imagine I don't like them, so if I have awesome after photos I will post both together :)

Understandable you are scared but take comfort in the fact you are in great hands! I had my surgery with Dr Pitchet in July and he and his team are great! Good luck and take care over there

So I did it!
Arrived in Bangkok yesterday morning, where Dr Pichets driver picked me up and we went straight to the clinic... When I saw the clinic I was absolutely terrified because it looked so dingy, but when you get inside it's lovely. I took off my shoes and was given a pair of foam shoes to wear inside the clinic, we went upstairs, I filled out so much paperwork and then went to a private room where they took photos. Paid my money, then went in for surgery. Very quick!! Next thing I am waking up in my room. Bandages all over me, so I couldn't see any of it.. Was on alot of morphine so I didn't care at the time..

I am ver happy with them. Well what I have seen of them lol.. I also had a tummy tuck which has caused alot of pain, but my tummy is flat now :)
Back in my hotel!
Left the clinic at about 2pm today after more morphine and some walking (which hurt like hell) getting back into bed was the worst! I will post pictures soon :)

Rest up and take care x
day 2 first night sleeping without strong pain meds!
Holy hell! Ouch! Woke up in the middle of the night because somehow I had let my body relax that I was laying flat... Well my tummy didn't like that at all! Definitely asking reception for more pillows today.. There is a really sharp pain under my right breast hopefully it's all good! Going down for breakfast.. Wish me luck walking ahh!
It's amazing what a few hours can do!!
Went for breakfast and it hurt a little, but a few hours later and I can get up off a chair without almost crying :) it is now more uncomfortable than anything.
Drain hole oozing yuck stuff!!
So last night I had a slight fever and felt a bit sore on my left leg. I had blood and yuck stuff coming out where the drain was. I called the emergency number and they asked if I wanted to see a doctor right then or could it wait till the morning. I opted to wait... Went to the hospital today, no fever. They cleaned all my wounds the the drain hole is now clean and fine. I have another appointment in 2 days.
They also removed the padding from under the binder which is alot more comfortable.. Still so stiff and can't stand straight, but it gets better ever day

I don't even really know what to say about this team anymore. As I was sitting in the stands watching the 37-7 debacle at the hands of the Ravens, I was trying to remember why exactly everyone was so excited before the season started. Let's be honest… this team just isn't very good right now. I'm sick of blaming the injuries. There's absolutely no excuse for an NFL team to show up with such a lack of fire and enthusiasm for a home game, I don't care what the scenario is. What I saw today was absolutely unacceptable. It's almost pointless to point out specific players who weren't good today, but something has to happen with Justin King. It's not a personal vendetta against the guy, but he's not good enough to be on the field right now. I understand that the depth at corner is extremely lacking, but I can't watch him anymore. As far as Steve Spagnuolo goes, it's still far too early to make any general statements about his job security. However, something has to change with the way this team operates. I'm going to stop now before I let my emotions get the best of me, so check back tomorrow for an actual recap of the game.

About me
My research is primarily in the Sociology of Religion. I have a continuing interest in Pentecostal spirituality and the development of Pentecostalism as a phenomenon in the twenty-first century. I have also written on the relationship between secularisation and religion in the twentieth and early twenty-first century. I also have an interest and expertise in qualitative methods, and the sociology of popular culture. My research continues to explore the interaction between theology and sociology, particularly as it relates to popular culture and religion. I am an early career researcher, and very much enjoying the process of writing and teaching in the beginning stages of my career.
My monograph, entitled Exaltation: Ecstatic Experience in Pentecostalism and Popular Music - will be in print in January 2014.

- "The Bogan Project: The Evolution of Bogans and CUBs in Australian society."
- Abstract (accepted for presentation at The Australian Sociological Association (TASA) conference, Monash University, Melbourne, November 25–28 2013): There has been an increasing interest, both at the popular and academic level, in the phenomenon of bogans. Formerly a moniker for poorer sections of the Australian working class, recently the phenomenon of the 'cashed-up bogan' (CUBs) has left some members of this group with more economic agency and mobility. While there has been some academic and popular level writing on this (see particularly Pini, McDonald and Mayes 2012; Nichols 2011), there is a gap in the empirical work. In particular, there has been little qualitative interview data with those who self-identify as bogans or CUBs. This project seeks to remedy this, addressing the following aims:
- Definition of the terms 'bogan' and 'CUB' – characteristics, traits, significance, consumption patterns.
- Exploring changes in attitudes toward bogans and cubs among people from a variety of socio-economic and cultural backgrounds.
- Locating bogans and CUBs within wider discourses on youth studies and class in Australia, and also within wider academic studies on working class subcultures and class warfare (e.g. the burgeoning work on 'chavs' in the UK)
- Investigating the phenomenon of self-identifying bogans: maintaining working class identity, or cashing in on an lucrative market?
- Provisional title of paper — "Concert for the Kimberley: The ethics of spectatorship in live music performance."
- Abstract: The charismatic performer can inspire spectators and convince them of the rightness of a cause through performance. In the aftermath of the performance, spectators may experience ambivalence about the cause. This ambivalence may be because of the following:
- The spectator may not know how to act in accordance with the conviction they experienced during the performance.
- The spectator may not want to act in accordance with the conviction they experienced during the performance.
- The spectator may discover that a response to the cause advocated by the charismatic performer may not be as straightforward as he or she was led to believe by the performer (i.e. they were taken in by the performer or performance).

ISO high-quality pizza stone
- spades Nov 15, 2007 07:42 AM
I'm sick and tired of inconsistent, crappy delivery pizza and decided to take matters into my own hands. Any ideas on where I can source a reliable pizza stone in the GTA for use in a standard electric oven?
I just use unglazed quarry tiles in my oven. Cheap and works fine. Measure your oven rack and get enough tiles to fit. The seams where they butt together are not a problem.
After cracking three so far I'd agree with Nyleve that quarry stones are the cheaper and smarter way to go.
If you want a stone I'd try and get a large rectangular one which you could also use for breads, etc. Tap Phong had them a few months ago for about $25.
I'll agree with Nyleve too. The tiles are cheap and effective. I bake breads on them as well. I've never had one crack (even when I create steam with a spray bottle) and they store easily when you need the oven for something else. Try Home Depot or Rona.
re: don515
I have two pizza stones - one was a gift from William Sonoma which I am sure wasn't cheap. The second one we bought a couple of weeks ago at Nella on Queen East for only $17. It is great having two in the oven so you have two flavour combos. If you have to heat your oven to 500' you might as well as make two right?
re: professor plum
We got a really really good quality one for about 45 bucks at Progress, the amazing discount store in Kensington Market - a very good deal - presented it to a friend and he says it is like night and day how his pizzas have improved now. This store has wonderful bargains in top quality kitchen stuff, but it comes in now and then, so keep checking with him - we get Emile Henri bakeware from him at prices as low as those US discount places that don't ship to us here...
re: js288uk
Nice one js..thanks for the tip!
re: js288uk
Wow, where exactly is this store located?
re: Mila
Progress? I think you're talking about Sasmart - across the street from Denison Park, always with stuff out on the sidewalk. I LOVE that place. All my everyday dishes are Emile Henri that I got there for a song quite a few years ago. They're not carrying quite so much E.H. anymore but it's still just the best treasure-hunt in town. They do have a lot of professional quality cookware and kitchenware along with a ton of hilarious 60's and 70's stuff that I don't know where they got but it's original. Great place.
re: Nyleve
Very exciting, a discount kitchen store I didn't know about AND I was heading to Kensington tonight.
I found this little blurb in Now with the address.
"Best little-known kitchenware store Sasmart
From the sidewalk, this Kensington Market spot, with its piles of plastic pails, chamber pots and pinnies, looks like a Portuguese discount house . It is. But half the store is a bargain-hunter's gadget paradise. Next to religious kitsch, find end-of-line European dishware and period martini shakers. Pick up this season's foodie kitchen essential - stainless steel ginger graters - for under 20 bucks. 6 Denison Square, 416- 596-6415"
re: Nyleve
Nyleve, I pinch your cooking tips and recipes from home cooking board, and now I've found your secret kitchen store.
I bow down to you, chowhounders like you make this board great. Thanks for sharing.
re: professor plum
The Williams Sonoma baking stone costs $52 - I was in earlier this week looking for one.
re: professor plum
Just today I decided that I must have a pizza stone but need to be educated. When you say "two flavour combos" are you referring to making two different pizzas or are you saying that different stones create different pizza flavours? Also... too bad that someone hasn't provided a bit of an answer for Gnuf at the bottom. I'd like know more, e.g. What size are the unglazed quarry tiles from Home Depot and how would you put them in your oven? I'm getting the impression that they may be 6"x6"... Do you just place them snugly side by side in the oven and place the dough on top with nothing under them?
Could somebody enlighten me as to what the difference is using an expensive stone vs. the $10 pizza stones that are so widely available? I'm not trying to be sarcastic, I'm just geniuinely curious as I don't seem to know what I'm missing. I've had 1 cheap stone crack on me, but given the price I just bought another one. My pizzas have always turned out fine. Is there any difference in baking quality etc? Any idea why? Porosity or density of the stone or something?
As far as I'm concerned, the best baking stone available is the Fibrament. Read about them here.
re: grampart
I have a Fribrament pizza stone. What I liked about it was:
- rectangular (hard to find in a pizza stone)
- available in large sizes (often they are only 15 or so inches circular)
- it is very dense and also thicker than most pizza stones. I believe this helps it to hold heat and therefore bakes the pizza better
- it seems like it would be less prone to cracking, unlike all the thinner pizza stones I have bought here at retailers.
- it is food grade and made specifically for baking pizzas and therefore I don't have to worry about the possibility of any chemicals, coatings, finishes etc that might be imparted from using unglazed tiles, granite or other stones (although I don't know if this is a risk really, but I just don't have to even worty about it) or even exploding stones (if that even happens) for that matter.
I am thinking of getting another one that I can put on the rack above this one so that the heat radiants downward too to even out the baking even more. I bake my pizza's at 550F and with this stone I get quite close to what you can get at Libretto or Queen Margherta.
Not cheap but I'll have this for life (and my Momma always told me to buy quality kitchenware) and you have to order this from the US and pay the shipping, brokerage fees and GST. I had mine shipped to Niagara Falls, NY and picked it up with a bunch of other stuff I ordered so I saved those fees and the shipping charges to Canada (but had to pay them to NY).
For those of you with pizza stones, can you tell me how thick they are, and where you bought them from in Toronto? I just bought a Big Green Egg smoker/grill and am looking for a thick (at least 1/2"), round pizza stone, no bigger than 16" diameter. The GrillPro one at Home Hardware looks quite thin; same with the one I saw at Placewares in St. Lawrence Market. There were reports in this thread about ones purchased at Nella and at Sasmart, but not much detail as to dimensions, etc.
I use a piece of untreated granite, but then I heard that defects in the stone could causse them to explode and damage your oven. Anyone ever had a pizza stone explode?

They Like Their Turtlenecks Ribbed Lyrics - A Wilhelm Scream
Be true to self.
Don't be what you're not.
Hold on to what you've got.
Thanks a lot.
You fucking asshole.
That's fascinating news.
Now give me something i could use.
Like how to work this detonator now
This clubs got tons of assholes,
And the prettiest turtlenecks.
It's a holy water super soaker fight.
And all the denim left in Texas won't make you right.

Justice and Law Enforcement:
Bureau of Indian Affairs Violated Antideficiency Act in 1977
FGMSD-80-88: Published: Oct 2, 1980. Publicly Released: Oct 2, 1980.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 275-1581
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
A Bureau of Indian Affairs violation of the Antideficiency Act in fiscal year 1977 was an overobligation of at least $186,000, but perhaps as much as $13 million. It was not reported to the Office of Management and Budget and to Congress as required by law, and because problems permitting the violation prevailed throughout most of fiscal 1978, the Bureau may have had another Antideficiency Act violation that year. The Antideficiency Act was violated when the Bureau exceeded its fiscal 1977 obligational authority for the operation of Indian programs appropriation.
In attempting to alleviate the overobligation and avoid requesting a deficiency appropriation, the Bureau made a series of questionable adjustments. It dropped hundreds of valid obligations from the records and transferred many of them to the fiscal 1978 appropriation. An unsupported adjustment of $300,000 was made so that the Bureau's report on obligation status would show an unexpended balance. In this way, many unrecorded but valid field offices' obligations found after yearend could be included in the Bureau's records without showing an overobligation. The Bureau should have sought a deficiency appropriation to cover obligations for these costs. The actions to shift the fund shortages unnecessarily increased the Bureau's administrative costs. Two factors contributed to the Bureau's violation of the Antideficiency Act: (1) its budgeting and fiscal reporting systems did not contain controls to keep obligations within amounts specified in appropriation acts, and (2) extensive delays in recording obligations made it necessary to record numerous valid obligations after the books were initially closed for fiscal 1977. Both fund control problems have persisted for years in the Bureau's financial system. Measures to prevent overobligations may have resulted.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: This recommendation was made to ensure that the Bureau properly accounted for money by fiscal year after the violation. This requirement is only for a 2 year period; then unliquidated obligations are transferred to merged accounts in which funds are available without regard to fiscal year designation. The Bureau said it performed the recommended review on its 1980 appropriations, but it did not.
Recommendation: The Secretary of the Interior should have the review completed on the current year closing to make certain that fund shortages related to the violation are not shifted to future years' appropriations.
Agency Affected: Department of the Interior
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: The Bureau has not revised its accounting system as promised. However, GAO has made essentially the same recommendation on September 8, 1982, in a similar report.
Recommendation: The Secretary of the Interior should ensure that the Bureau redesigns its accounting system to include appropriate fund controls and submits the revised system to GAO for approval as soon as practicable.
Agency Affected: Department of the Interior
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: When we confirm what actions the agency has taken in response to this recommendation, we will provide updated information.
Recommendation: The Secretary of the Interior should require the Bureau to use its planned interim aproach to validate fund availability until the redesigned system is operational.
Agency Affected: Department of the Interior
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: When we confirm what actions the agency has taken in response to this recommendation, we will provide updated information.
Recommendation: The Secretary of the Interior should make sure the violation is reported as soon as practicable to the President and Congress as required by 31 U.S.C. 665(i)(2).

A word from Sutro's at the Cliff House
Perched above the waves of San Francisco's picturesque Ocean Beach the historic Cliff House is home to the stunning Sutro's at the Cliff House restaurant. With the most spectacular ocean views in the City and contemporary American cuisine that draws heavily from the bounty of the ocean visible from every angle of the restaurant, dining at Sutro's is the quintessential San Francisco experience. The menu features local seafood offerings like whole roasted Petrale sole, Dungeness crab, and local shellfish as well as fresh produce farmed using sustainable practices. The Cliff House also offers the more casual Bistro Restaurant (no reservations), open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and the Sunday Champagne Buffet (must phone for reservations).Continued

- stellar atmosphere, view, historyouttolunchDined on 10/18/2014Cliff House is a historic gem that offers sweeping, stunning ocean visuals. Restaurant ambience is up-scale, light-filled, sophisticated. Our main courses were variable in quality. Risotto was was the agreed-upon tastiest, but came with an odd reddish/red pepper foam around it - obviously thought to be visually artistic by chef, but I thought it was odd and unnecessary (that from someone who loves to cook and appreciates culinary arts.) The scallops and ravioli were disappointing. Dessert, however, was outstanding (lava cake & butterscotch pot de creme.)Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderfulboom21VIPDined on 10/17/2014This is my fourth time enjoying dinner at Sutro's at the Cliff House. The food has always been delicious and beautifully presented. I love taking my visitors here for dinner or just a cocktail, they're very pleased with the experience and want to dine here again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Very NiceJasonBaca10Dined on 10/12/2014Excellent Scenic View. The restaurant is crowded, and food is good. Must have reservations in order to get seating.Special Features:
- bouillabaisse!TakashiDined on 10/12/2014Awesome bouillabaisse! We had fully enjoyed the perfect food!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great locationCharlieLDined on 10/11/2014This was our 10th anniversary celebration. My wife picked up the place and I am so glad I agreed! The place and the service were just outstanding, with very friendly and knowledgable staff and crew. Definitely coming back again soon.Special Features:
- Will not be returningOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 10/11/2014I requested a nice table and mentioned that it was our anniversary in the notes. My girlfriend checked in as I found parking. She was treated quite poorly upon inquiring about our reservation. The manager did not bother to ask or look up the name of our reso until prompted to do so. He told my girlfriend to wait without giving any notice of the status of our table and how long it would be. It took at least 8 minutes before our server even approached our table. No mention of specials or color commentary whatsoever. Food was salty and overcooked and incredibly overpriced. Not once was our anniversary mentioned or anything special done. For the price, I expect MUCH higher quality food and service. Would never go back nor recommend this place.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2004VIPDined on 10/11/2014Great experience at Sutro's on Saturday night. Food and service top notch. Sunset wasn't bad either! It was a sea food night for our table: halibut, two salmon and scallops. Everyone was swooning over the presentation and taste. Our waiter overheard that it was a birthday event and provided a nice sweet surprise and very sweet of him. We were surprised at spending 3 hours over drinks, starters, mains and dessert - we enjoyed every minute and never felt rushed. Thanks for a wonderful eveningSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A good choiceMaRKVIPDined on 10/10/2014We were only in San Francisco for a short visit but we were glad to get a dinner at Sutros while there. Good seafood and pretty beach even though it was dark.Special Features:
- Lovelyf231Dined on 10/8/2014We were able to get a midweek reservation with 3 days notice. The table available was unusually small, but we still had a good experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Birds and MoreChrisDined on 10/7/2014Wonderful environment for lunch with bird life all around. Great view of the pacific ocean and the ships going by. A San Francisco gem to show visitors that the city is not all busy and hassle. Parking cane problem and you need to be careful backing up into a curvy street. A parking lot is available on the top of the hill.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Exceeded expectationsjonnybrunoDined on 10/6/2014I expected this to be a great view, mediocre over priced food venue. I was very happy to find that all of the food was great, and our service was even better. I sampled 4 entrees from all members of my party, and 2 appetizers. Everything was excellent, and the service was very professional. Would definitely recommend.Special Features:
- Iconic Sanfranciscoverynice2u2allDined on 10/6/2014This restaurant is built in the cliffs @ Los lobos Pt. SF,CA.. so beautiful!! I hadn't been here in years.. and I wanted to bring my new found younger cousin who was visiting the area to this iconic landmark.. very good food the open faced lamb sandwich and the truffle parmesan frets were just delicious my red trout fish sandwich was soo fresh yum!!! we had a yummy time and after lunch we walked around and took pictures of the beautiful cliffs and beach! It's a lil' pricey but it's well worth it.. Oh and i'm a big History buff the building is over 100 yrs. old…..Special Features:
- Pacific OceanGrandmaMarthaDined on 10/6/2014Even on the foggy day we were at Cliff House Restaurant it is comforting to have the ocean by its side and as the fog began to lift it's wonderful to see the GG Bridge, Marin Headlands and the ocean waves and birds.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect Lunch for ThreewineluvrDined on 10/6/2014I had been to brunch at Cliff House in the past, but this was the first time for lunch. The three of us who usually get together near Christmas decided to go earlier this year and two of our number suggested Cliff House. Fortunately open on a Monday and providing the window table as requested, Sutro's did not disappoint. Our waiter was super, as was the food. Our ocean view was slightly muted by fog, but beautiful, and the room was so quiet (there were other diners) that we had a great conversation and didn't feel rushed. Somewhat pricey but well worth it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Crashing wavesMarigold1Dined on 10/5/2014We were new to the city and our cab driver couldn't find a cliff House! It was a long drive in the dark with me navigating from the rear car seat with a torch! It would have been so much better to see the view in daylight. But the setting and ambiance were wonderful and it really is an iconic building. The foods was fabulous and the whole experience is beautiful and atmospheric.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good for couplesRanchoDined on 10/5/2014The menu options were limited but the selection was good. It was romantic, but of course pricey because you get the view of the ocean.Special Features:
- Lots of moneyOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/4/2014This was a very expensive restaurant for a restaurant with average food. The view is lovely but not for $60 a person with no alcohol
- Can't go wrongBradsterDined on 10/4/2014We come back here each year to celebrate our anniversary and it never disappoints. The wait staff are very attentive and have small conversations with each table. We have recognized the same wait staff over the last 3 years which is a great sign. They view is spectacular in any weather. I do not eat seafood and the non seafood options are always phenomenal. I also like that they offer Moet and Chandon my the glass and have a large selection of half bottles which allow you try a out a wine with each course. I recommend Sutro's for anyone wanting a relaxing top quality meal with a spectacular view. Great for locals and out of towners alike.Special Features:
- Oct 3 dinnerDragonPenDined on 10/3/2014Pricey but worth it, especially on a clear day with a table view out over the ocean. Sunsets are awesome.Special Features:
- Table by the windowCubsfanfromIdahoDined on 10/3/2014If you are looking to have a view od the sun setting beyond the ocean, this is the place for you. The food and service were great.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The bestGeorgeSDined on 10/2/2014great food, service, and an unbelievable view. Get there at sunset for the best experience, but even with out the view, the food and service make the experience wonderful.Special Features:
- Color faded awayworldtravellerDined on 10/2/2014I was very disappointed about the kitchen at all. All five dishes I had were of low taste. I missed flavors, interesting tastes. Sorbet was not half-frozen, what it should be, it was fully frozen, hard and hardly to eat, with just one spoon. Not even an additional fork was offered. The Sangria tasted like water and not like orange juice and red wine. I don't know where all the good reviews are from, should be elder one's. In the end I paid more than 200 $ and it wasn't worth it. Best of the restaurant are the stunning views outside.Special Features:
- Something SpecialMarleyDined on 10/2/2014You watch the ocean and the cormorants on the rocky island, surfers and container ships coming to the Golden Gate. You may fall in love with the mussels or steak frite. Try something new each time, or order your favorite each time you come here. Maybe it's the hot roll with the salted butter. Great place.Special Features:
- historic location and viewshenryDined on 10/1/2014Historic view of lands end and the entrance to the golden gate as seen by early Spanish and English explorers and later by military ships returning home during World War II, including the rocks below and the Marin headlands to the north. The food was good though a bit expensive, the ambiance very good, and the noise level was low during lunch mid-week.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- One of the best restaurants!LBHoustonDined on 9/29/2014This restaurant has the most amazing views of the Ocean andmsunset. The food matches the views...outstanding. Definitely recommend!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Beautiful Viewirenethequeen59Dined on 9/29/2014The food was excellent. Unfortunately, the service was not. While our waitress was very nice, and helpful, our water glasses were never refilled ( I no there is a water shortage, but it would have been nice if we had been asked) and we were never offered a coffee refill. Also, without a dress code, it was unpleasant to see people in cut-off shorts and t-shirts during dinner hour. We were off a cruise ship and were very excited to dine at this historic landmark, but we were disappointed with the service. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants a VERT laid=back experience, but not for a special occasion.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Luncheon 80th Birthday CelebrationCrimpmystyleDined on 9/29/2014We took our 80 year old "birthday girl" out to lunch. We were treated royally by the staff and she was served a free dessert. Our heirloom tomato salad was split on two plates. More bread was brought upon request. The three entrees were yummy and unique. We had Rock Cod, mussels and steak. All were delicious and described well by the waiter. All the staff went out of their way to make it a special afternoon for us including taking pictures.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Cliff House at sunsetDannyCDined on 9/28/2014The view was great; looking out over the ocean at the setting sun. Food was excellent both in presentation and quality. Plates were warm and food was cooked just right, fish perfect, veggies a bit crunchy. Of course we had a bottle of California wine to accompany supper, which was delicious. The only negative point I would add was that although service was good, they only poured the wine at the outset and only once after even when someone came by to ask if everything was good and our glasses were empty, they did not bother to check our glasses and refill them. The restaurant and venue was really worth the visit.Special Features:
- Nice brunch ..great view!,tastygirlVIPDined on 9/28/2014Perfect spot on the way to the Legion of honor.We do not like big buffet brunches so this was a great choice.Special Features:
