DETROIT -- The Detroit Tigers have had to rely heavily on their bullpen the past few days. Max Scherzer decided to give them a break.
Scherzer gave up a home run to the first batter he faced Saturday, but didn't allow a single run over the rest of his seven innings in Detroit's 5-2 win over the Los Angeles Angels.
Scherzer struck out nine and retired the last 11 batters he faced en route to his first win this season. It was the deepest a Tigers pitcher has gone in the last six starts.
The win snapped the Tigers' 10-game losing streak to the Angels and tied their three-game series at 1-all.
Key to the game
Three weeks into the season and rookie third baseman Nick Castellanos still looks every bit like a legitimate major league hitter.
A day after sitting in favor of Don Kelly, Castellanos returned to the Tigers' lineup and belted his second career home run -- a two-run shot off Angels starter C.J. Wilson in the second inning to give the Tigers a 2-1 lead they wouldn't relinquish.
He finished 1 for 4 and is now hitting .256 in 11 games.
Tigers' highlights
-- The Tigers won a critical challenge in the third inning to overturn a call, which led to a key run. After initially being called out at third base when he attempted to advance on a fly ball, Miguel Cabrera was ruled safe and later scored on Austin Jackson's sacrifice fly. It marked Jackson's major league-leading fourth sacrifice fly this year, a career high.
-- A Victor Martinez solo homer in the fifth inning gave the Tigers a 4-1 lead. It was the third homer this year for Martinez, who finished 2 for 2 with a pair of walks. He has only struck out twice in 48 at-bats this season.
-- The Tigers added an insurance run in the eighth when Bryan Holaday, who reached base with a leadoff bunt, scored from third on Ian Kinsler's sacrifice fly to give Detroit a 5-1 lead.
-- Tigers reliever Joba Chamberlain pitched a 1-2-3 eighth inning with a pair of strikeouts to earn his second hold this season. He lowered his ERA to 4.26.
-- The Tigers spotted Scherzer four runs of support before the sixth inning Saturday after providing him with relatively little run support in his first three starts this season.
Tigers' lowlights
-- Scherzer gave up a solo homer to J.B. Shuck, the first batter of the game. It was Shuck's second homer this season.
-- Cabrera, who was hitless in his first two at-bats Saturday, saw his batting average drop to .222 before he laced a shot down the right-field line for a double. He finished 1 for 4 and is batting .236 through the team's first 14 games.
-- Joe Nathan gave up a solo homer to Albert Pujols with one out in the ninth inning. It was the second homer in as many games for Pujols, who has hit 498 career home runs and is two shy of becoming the 26th player with at least 500 career home runs.
Game notes
-- Angels outfielder Mike Trout finished 0 for 4 with four strikeouts. It marked the first time Trout has struck out four times in a game.
-- Ian Stewart attempted to steal second base and was thrown out by Bryan Holaday to end the fourth inning. Angels manager Mike Scioscia challenged the call and it was overturned.
-- Rajai Davis clipped Angels catcher Hank Conger on the arm with his backswing in the second inning. Conger was checked out by Angels head athletic trainer Ned Bergert and remained in the game.
-- The Tigers announced an attendance of 36,659, which marked the biggest crowd at Comerica Park since opening day.

ARLINGTON, Texas -- The Texas Rangers have filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in an effort to spur completion of the stalled $575 million sale of the team -- and maybe clear the decks for the new owners to make pennant-chasing decisions this summer.
The bankruptcy filing Monday comes four months after Tom Hicks announced an agreement to sell the team to a group led by Hall of Fame pitcher and team president Nolan Ryan and Pittsburgh attorney Chuck Greenberg.
"I did not want to put the baseball future of the Texas Rangers in jeopardy or uncertainty for an extended period of time," Hicks said. "This action is all about creating an end to the impasse in allowing this team sale to go forward."
Under the plan that will be the subject of a court hearing Tuesday, the Rangers would fully pay the $75 million of the club's debt tied up in Hicks' financially strapped ownership group. That would remove the team from the additional claims by creditors against Hicks Sports Group that have stalled the sale.
"We feeling like this is the correct thing to do," Ryan said. "We have some deadlines coming up that are obviously important to us as a ballclub, and feel like by bringing this to finality that we will then be able to do the things we feel like we need to do and push forward with the winning ways of the ballclub."
The Rangers, who haven't been to the playoffs since 1999, have a two-game lead in the AL West.
In order for the Rangers to have financial flexibility at the non-waiver trading deadline July 31, the sale of the team will need to be completed. There is also the amateur draft next month.
A 21-page filing in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Fort Worth included the top 30 unsecured creditors, a list headed by Alex Rodriguez, who is owed $24.9 million in deferred compensation six years after he was traded away from the team.
The next five on the list are also current or former players: Kevin Millwood ($12.9 million), Michael Young ($3.9 million), Vicente Padilla ($1.7 million), Mickey Tettleton ($1.4 million) and Mark McLemore ($970,000).
Even if the court approves the Rangers bankruptcy petition, the sale would take several more weeks to complete.
"I know it will be faster than the other alternative would have been," said Hicks, who bought the team in 1998 from a group that included former president George W. Bush.
Since the filing was made by the team, not Hicks Sports Group, the group of about 40 creditors owed money by HSG could object to the sale. Greenberg knows that is a distinct possibility.
"Given the way a couple of these renegade creditors have behaved, I'm not expecting an overnight personality transplant," Greenberg said. "So, the odds are they won't take this well."
Greenberg said doesn't believe the court will disregard the process and other events that have taken place so far.
"Particularly since every creditor of the Texas Rangers will be paid 100 cents on the dollar," he said.
Rodriguez played for Texas from 2001-03 after signing what was then a record $252 million, 10-year contract. He was traded to the New York Yankees before 2004 season, and that contract has since been replaced by a $275 million, 10-year deal with the Yankees.
Young, the longest-tenured Ranger in his 10th season, is the only current player among creditors listed in the filing. Neither Tettleton and McLemore have played for the club since the 1990s. Others among the top 30 listed in the filing are Tickets.com, Rawlings Sporting Goods Co., Clear Channel Outdoor and Stats Inc.
Greenberg initially hoped to have control of the Rangers by opening day, but concerns from Hicks' lenders have slowed the deal and Hicks Sports Group defaulted on $525 million in loans last year. Greenberg said Hicks' agreement to sell 153 acres around the stadium facilitated the agreement; the land is part of the $575 million sale price.
Hicks said it became apparent about a month ago that the Chapter 11 bankruptcy would be the only way to break the stalemate created by creditors.

Though the liturgical calendar reminds us that it is Christmastide, a lovely 12-day season extending to Epiphany in January, you cannot live in this culture without experiencing how the air is let out of the holiday balloon on December 26. The Magi may not arrive in Bethlehem until January 6, but the culture abruptly drops the whole matter practically before Christmas Day is over.
I like the way W. H. Auden describes this moment in For the Time Being: "Well, so that is that. Now we must dismantle the tree. . . . Once again as in previous years we have seen the actual vision and failed / To do more than entertain it as an agreeable / Possibility."

June 19, 1889
John Percy, (born March 23, 1817, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, England—died June 19, 1889, London) British metallurgist. He turned to metallurgy after obtaining a medical degree, and in 1848 he devised a process for extracting silver from its ores, which soon came into widespread use. He improved the Bessemer process for making steel, and he was the first to survey British iron ores. At London's Metropolitan School of Sciences, he trained a generation of metallurgists. His multivolume Treatise on Metallurgy (1861–80), though unfinished, quickly attained classic status.

Like water through a hose, blood flows through your arteries, delivering oxygen and nutrients to your organs. Atherosclerosis occurs when your arteries become clogged with fatty deposits (known as plaque), causing them to lose their elasticity and narrow. This blocks or slows the smooth passage of blood.
Plaque is a sticky, yellow substance made up of fatty materials such as cholesterol, calcium, and waste products from your cells. Atherosclerosis is a slow, progressive condition that may begin as early as childhood. It can occur anywhere in the body but usually affects large and medium-sized arteries.
Atherosclerosis, heart disease and strokeAtherosclerosis is related to coronary artery disease, stroke and other conditions. Depending on which artery is blocked, you may have:
Coronary artery disease (CAD). If arteries supplying blood to your heart become narrow or blocked, blood flow to the heart can slow down or stop. CAD can cause angina or heart attack. These heart conditions caused by atherosclerosis can be described as acute coronary syndromes.
Carotid artery disease. If arteries in your neck become narrow or blocked, blood flow to the brain can slow down or stop. A blood clot can also travel through the arteries to the brain and block vessels in the brain. This may cause you to have a stroke or mini-stroke (TIA).
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD). If arteries in your pelvis, legs or arms become narrow or blocked, you may develop peripheral arterial disease (PAD), leading to cramping muscular pain while walking or during exercise. It can be the first sign of atherosclerosis elsewhere in the body. PAD may also affect the arteries supplying blood to your head, kidneys or stomach, increasing the risk for a stroke and organ damage respectively. Learn more about PAD from the American Heart Association and Vascular Disease Foundation.
Aneurysm. Atherosclerosis can cause an aneurysm, which is a bulge in a weakened area of your artery wall. The bulge can burst and cause internal bleeding in the brain. It can be fatal when an aneurysm in the largest artery (aorta) bursts.reduce your risk.
Your doctor will treat your atherosclerosis with lifestyle changes, medications, surgery or other procedures.

Colette Richter of Mountain Lakes repeated as the Group 1 champion while Metuchen won its
Richter ran a PR on Saturday at Holmdel Park, 18:42, to finish first.
"Holmdel is one of my favorite courses, and I got my Holmdel PR which I'm really happy about and wasn't expecting it," Richter said. "I never thought I'd win it two years (in a row) so it's a really good feeling."
Richter was a little surprised when she saw she had a chance to PR because she did not want to run too hard with Meet of Champs happening on Wednesday.
"I saw the clock and was like 'OK today is a good day!'" Richter said. "I felt good running it but I didn't want to push it too hard today with Meet of Champs Wednesday, I'm sure it's in the back of everyone's mind, but today was a good omen for Wednesday."
On the team side, Metuchen won with 86 points and placing its top five within 12 spots and 37 seconds of each other.
"I'm almost speechless," head coach Kelli Holleran said. "They just went after it today, and that's what it comes down to."
Holleran said when she saw her team come out of the roller coasters with a tight pack near the front, she felt like they would be in good position to win.
"I thought that they really want this, and as long as they stick together like this it's going to be a really good thing."
Metuchen did stick together, led by sophomore Courtney Marraro finishing in 21:00 and ending with its fifth runner, Anna Lignell in 21:37.
"It felt great, it was really a team effort," Marraro said.
Kristina Smiling, Emma Johnson, and Kristina Lignell comprised of the rest of the top five, finishing 14th, 19th, and 22nd, respectively.
"I'm so happy we did our best and worked hard for it," Smiling said. "We just forgot about the pain and went for it."
The Group 1 title marks the third championship race Metuchen won this year. They previously won the Greater Middlesex Conference and Central Jersey Group 1 Sectional.
"It just shows how we've grown," Smiling said. "We all put down our selfish ways and thought about our team as a whole. I think growing as a team and being able to get to that point is what led us to winning these titles."

Former Detroit receiver Titus Young, who was released by the Lions in February, was arrested Friday night for the third time in less than a week.
According to reports, Young was arrested in San Clemente, Calif., on Friday on felony counts of burglary and assault on a police officer and a misdemeanor charge of resisting arrest.
Lt. Joe Balicki of the Orange County Sheriff's Department told the Detroit Free Press that Young is still in jail on $75,000 bail. A hearing is scheduled for Monday.
According to a report in the Oakland (Mich.) Press, Young was arrested twice in a 15-hour period last Sunday.
He was pulled over at 12:01 a.m. in Southern California and arrested for driving under the influence.
At 2:22 p.m. on the same day, police arrested Young for trying to steal his own car from an impound. According to the report, Young was seen jumping over the fence.
In the most recent arrest, Balicki told the Free Press that Young fled from deputies on foot and was detained after a struggle.
"He actually tried to fight with them," Balicki said. "But there was more deputies than him so they were able to subdue him without -- I guess there was some punches thrown but they were able to get him into handcuffs without too much damage."

MARNE -- It may have been a strange start, but it sure was a thrilling finish at Berlin Raceway.
The 58-lap Late Model anniversary race started out with two crowd favorites making early exits, but it gave way to a showdown between Joe Bush and Ross Meeuwsen.
Meeuwsen has taken away wins from other opponents this year, but Saturday night was Bush's night to shine. He picked up his first victory of the season, outlasting Meeuwsen by nearly a half-second.
With Meeuwsen giving Bush a thumbs-up after the race for a fantastic duel, Bush could celebrate.
"I saw Ross's car in second and then I felt him one time," Bush said. "It was quite intense. He was trying to take the groove away from me."
Tom Thomas, who entered the race second in the point standings, lost power early on and had to drop out. Johnny Benson Jr., making one of his appearances at Berlin this season, dropped out of the race halfway through due to car problems.
That paved the way for the strong finish of Bush, who entered 14th in the point standings.
"This race car is riding pretty well. We've got it tuned in quite good right now," Bush said. "This is a new car and we came out about halfway through the season. We've had some bugs with it, but we've been able to work it out."
"This was nice. Jason Barrix, one of my sponsors (who runs a law firm in Grand Rapids), was just talking to me this week and hoping I'd win a race sooner or later."
In the 25-lap Pro Stock feature, Kevin DeGood started out front but soon had a challenge from Weston Jewett. DeGood and Jewett later tangled up in front but kept their positions; DeGood suffered car problems later and headed for the pits, leaving Scotty Root to pass Jewett for his second victory of the season. Root was fifth in the point standings coming in.
"I didn't know if I'd have a good car today," Root said. "We'd been struggling for the past few weeks but we got some good track position tonight. I was hoping to get the edge on everyone else."
The 20-lap Vintage Racing Organization of America feature started out with a 1-2 battle between Steve Fuller and Max Wirebaugh, but Larry Mollohan stole away the lead shortly after. Mollohan, who was the midseason points champion on the VROA circuit, won his fourth feature of the year.
Terry Bockheim closed a small percentage of the gap between himself and points leader Brian VanZalen. Bockheim, who was second coming into Saturday's 20-lap feature, took his third feature of the year and finished ahead of Maurice Davis and VanZalen.

Grand Rapids Griffins goaltender Daniel Larsson had a particularly inauspicious 2009-2010 regular season debut, giving up five goals on seven shots against the San Antonio Rampage, but he rebounded in a big way Sunday, stopping 41 shots as the Griffins dropped the Abbotsford Heat 7-1. Griffins coach Curt Fraser spoke to the Grand Rapids Press's Michael Zuidema about Larsson's improvement (he also stopped 25 shots as the Griffins won a 5-3 decision over Abbotsford on Friday) with the Grand Rapids Press's Michael Zuidema, suggesting that a lack of practice time hurt Larsson early on:
October 26, Grand Rapids Press: "To be fair, he went over to Sweden with Detroit, didn't play, didn't practice very much, wasn't prepared as maybe he needed to be to start this season and we threw him in against some real tough competition," Griffins coach Curt Fraser said Sunday. "He kind of struggled the first couple of outings. Against San Antonio, he kind of struggled, but tonight he shows you the real deal. It was nice to see Daniel have such success like that. That's the way he's going to have to play for us all year if we expect to get to where we want to go."
Larsson said he already feels more comfortable than he did in his first two outings.
"A lot better. You just have to find your own game and trust that it works," he said. "Throw the rebounds into the corners and play simple."
Carsen Germyn spoiled the shutout bid when scored Abbotsford's lone goal during a 5-on-3 power play with 5:32 left in the game. It would have been Larsson's sixth career shutout with the Griffins, but he was happy just to see the team win its third game in a row.
"The guys fought for me the whole game and played really well. It's a team effort," he said. "We got a win, that's the only thing that counts."
He did make sure to fight for himself, though. With the Griffins leading 6-0 late in the game, tensions escalated on both teams -- a total of 106 penalty minutes were handed out in the third period alone -- and Larsson picked up his first penalty of the year, a slashing call with 5:32 left in the game.
"The guy ran me before I slashed him. I was a little (ticked) off about that," he said. "That wasn't the best thing to do, but we got a win anyway, so that's the most important thing."

Kriss is one of your favourite bottoms and we totally agree with you. That's why we invited him again and since he just can't have enough cock, we paired him with 2 hot studs to take care of his hole.

Atlantic Broadband will offer a new TiVo digital entertainment service in Aiken come December.
Atlantic Broadband announced on Tuesday with TiVo, Inc., a digital video recording service company, the start of the country's first cable service provider to offer TiVo's newest digital service.
"There's been a little confusion in the marketplace as far as the name of the service," David Isenberg, chief marketing and strategy officer with Atlantic Broadband, said. "As far as the name of the service and what we are launching, the TiVo will be based on the T6 platform. TiVo uses 'Roamio' in places like Best Buy, and we are launching the TiVo service through Atlantic Broadband."
Customers of Atlantic Broadband will now have access to TiVo services and capabilities, including being able to stream live or recorded shows to an iPad or iPhone anywhere in their homes.
"I might be in my bedroom without a TV, but can be watching my favorite college football game while my wife is watching 'Real Housewives,'" Isenberg said. "That really opens up a whole new way to watch TV, and we're very excited about that. At the same time, using that mobile app, they can actually download most shows and take them to go if you have children and you're going to be taking a long car ride."
The service also includes a "No Compromises" viewing option, the new T6 platform can record up to six shows at once, storing up to 1,000 shows while delivering full DVR services on every television in the home. Customers can click the "What to Watch Now" menu with shortcuts to popular TV shows, movies and live sporting events and customers can watch them anywhere on smartphones or tablets. A wish list can also be created, matching customer's choices with other actors, shows or movies.
"There is also a Google-like search capability where you can search for a show or a movie, and it makes it very easy to find content that's On Demand or on live TV," Isenberg said. "Also, because this is an Internet connected platform, customers can watch millions of videos from YouTube and other sources. You can listen to Internet radio from Pandora or watch photo slide shows from Picassa."
The TiVo service will be built into Atlantic Broadband's suite of double and triple play bundles at no extra charge. The new bundle offers extra features which include Home Networking Support and Whole Home HD, free movies and series from providers like Encore or Starz. Prices will start as low as $99.99 per month and customers already using Atlantic Broadband DVR can upgrade to the new TiVo service for $10 more per month.
"We really think TiVo is the ultimate TV experience," Isenberg said. "We are really excited about the benefits this is going to bring to our customers."

For those visiting a foreign destination, it's always good to know some of the language in advance.
That principle applies even when that foreign "country" is a nearby prison. In recent years, following the biblical injunction to visit those who are shut in, I've gotten to know some great guys behind bars, and their unique dialect.
And so, with a little help from these friends, here's some prison slang I've learned. Think of it as a modest update of H.L. Mencken's "The American Language," the dictionary of homegrown slang compiled by the sage of Baltimore.
By the way, lots of other people across New Jersey may also benefit from this brief glossary.
Yesterday's editions of The Star-Ledger, for example, told of a reputed South Jersey gang leader who was sentenced to 30 years in prison for shooting gang associates.
A few pages over, a executive pleaded guilty to embezzlement. Not many pages away, a trial date was announced for the accidental shooting of a cowboy actor at a theme park.
And who knows? A judge ruled on Monday that Jayson Williams, the former New Jersey Nets star, could remain free on $250,000 bail. But Williams is awaiting re-trial on a reckless manslaughter charge in the 2002 shooting death of his limo driver, and has already been convicted on charges related to a cover-up after the death.
So, class, welcome to Prison English 101.
Before we get started, let me mention that some prison slang can't be given here, because this is a family-friendly blog site.
But let's begin with the basics. Meet your "cellie," that is, your cell mate. He may be an accused or convicted "body snatcher" (murderer), "scraper" (rapist, with a child or adult victim) or a "smoker" (drug dealer).
By the way, as part of your arrest process, you may have been fingerprinted. In the Soviet Union labor camps, getting fingerprinted was known as "playing the piano," but that seems to be Russian slang, not American.
But here, if your cellie tells you, "I'm fightin' drama," he's letting you know that he faces very serious charges. Maybe he'll get very specific: "I'm fightin' a body," means murder charges and "fightin' an aggie," indicates aggravated assault charges.
It's important to try to get along with your cellie. It's always best if he doesn't have a hidden "shank," "piece of steel" or a "whack," - i.e. a knife. Worse still, he may have a "gat," that is, a gun.
(For you English majors: The protagonist in F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel, "The Great Gatsby," changes his name to Gatsby to reflect a certain rakish style associated with the slang term for a gun. It's interesting that the slang is still used decades after the Fitzgerald novel was published in the 1920s.)
It would be untruthful to deny that there is other contraband in prison, especially drugs, so you might as well learn that vocabulary, too.
A "blunt" is a marijuana cigarette you smoke, as is "weed." "Tree" is the marijuana leaves you roll into that cigarette.
There are lots of words for illegal drugs, but "chewy blewies" for Xantax seems one of the more colorful ones.
If, while in prison, you decide to put your sinful lifestyle behind you, there is always help from the "outside ministry," i.e. volunteers who come in and teach the Bible.
(But please, members of the outside ministry, inmates may call your work a "ministry," but it's not proper for you, the outside guest, to refer to it as a "ministry" - that seems too condescending.)
If you do decide to let God change you, one of the nice things is telling other inmates about your newly-found biblical faith. Just don't pretend that God has changed your heart if he hasn't - that's called, in prison slang, not "testifying" to a change, but "testi-lying."
Becoming religious in prison, and promptly forgetting all about your so-called change once you get out, is known behind the walls as "jailhouse religion," or, among outsiders, as "prison Jesus."
Meanwhile, it's true, prison life is tough. But there are upsides. "The food is bangin,' " lets you know that today's meal is tasty.
Likewise, close friendships are often formed in prison. "That's my dog," is a nice way to describe your friend. (No sexual connotation is implied.)
Likewise, "That's off the hook" is a term of praise, but usually for a material object, like a car.
Not everything is hunky-dory. (Oops! That's outsider slang.) If your cellie gets out of line, you might tell him (very tactfully), "You're out of pocket." If he continues to "diss" you, you might complain, "I'm in my bag," which means that you're upset.
Sometimes, when a fellow inmate gets too much "out of pocket," you might decide to give him a "tune-up," in other words, an inmate-administered disciplinary beating.
That's different than giving him a "run down," which is stealing his stuff and then administering a beating -- not to put him in line, but just because you want his stuff.
One thing that relieves the boredom and monotony of prison, as you might expect, is visitors from outside.
It's always good when your "baby mama" shows up, that is, the mother of your children. You're always glad when she brings your "seed," that is, one of those children.
And who doesn't appreciate a visit from "my dukes," which is the affectionate term for dear old Mom.
Sometimes, those visits from outsiders are few and far between. Meanwhile, you've got to deal with the "cops," an interchangeable term for both police officers and corrections officers. Those authority figures, serving in- and outside the walls, are also known as "po-po's," a term derived from "police."
(By the way, inmates rarely refer to corrections officers as C.O.'s, the official term. Instead, they always refer to them, without euphemism, as "guards.")
Still, when the judge comes down hard on your "case" (your court case), you'll be ready with your new vocabulary.
"They gave me some tick," means the judge gave you a heavy sentence.
A "lifer," seemed an obvious term for someone sentenced to life in prison. But the way to describe someone receiving that sentence seems especially accurate: "That dude got wheels." (In other words, his life is going to go round and round, in the same place, i.e. in prison.)
The slang term for someone receiving a death sentence is more direct: "They're checkin' out." (New Jersey does not have a death penalty.)
Most inmates, eventually, get out. "I'm goin' to the bricks" means I'm going to be released. (I wonder, can that be why Newark is nicknamed "Brick City?")
Alternatively, you can give your cellie the good news by mentioning, "I'm going back to the world."
So, if you ever have to leave the bricks, because they give you some tick or you got wheels, leave your gat and baby mama at home, get to know your cellie, and settle in. All is not lost. At least the food will be bangin'.

**My first picture is a Rubylane Processing photo, so I apologize for the green of my original backgound showing through her veil which is not green but the usual white netting. Thank you**** Very nice example of the F&B Little Lady dolls of the 1940's. These were the early fashion predecessors to Cissy and Miss Revlon, and I feel somewhat overlooked. These dolls have been dressed in historical outfits, play dresses, negligees, skating outfits, and of course bridal outfits, etc. This pretty lady has her original satin gown, panties, shoes, socks and veil. Her veil has little pearls and has been stitched to her hair. The veil has a few small holes and some soiling. Her dress is very nice, does have a small tear on the back. Her sandals are very nice. She has good composition, very minor crazing. She has a small, hairline crack on the top of her left leg and an old repair on the left side of her face at the base of her neck. Her middle finger on her left hand has a crack but it looks like it is in the paint, not through. Her fingers are very nice aside from this. Thick mohair wig, nice blue eyes. Oh, she has those three dimples on her back and I'm to assume that when she was being molded the dimples for her behind were shifted at bit! This makes her special. She is marked Effanbee on her neck and back. Beautiful May Bride~~~

The two suspects are charged with robbing the Waffle House on Skyland Boulevard East at 1:29 a.m. and the Alabama Credit Union on New Watermelon Road at 3 p.m. on March 17, according to Tuscaloosa Police Department spokesman Sgt. Brent Blankley.
Investigators arrested Desharese Kendrell White on March 19 for both robberies, but did not know the identity of the suspect who wore the Spider-Man mask at the time, Blankley said. The Spider-Man mask and other items used in the robbery were recovered by police.
Blankley said investigators sent the mask for DNA testing and received results on Tuesday. The DNA found on the mask matched a person whom investigators had already named as a suspect in both robberies, Blankley said. Police obtained warrants for the suspect on Wednesday.
Anthony Lamar Jones, 17, of Tuscaloosa was charged with two counts of first-degree robbery after officers located him in the 2900 Block of Pine Street at 5:05 p.m. Wednesday and served both warrants.
Jones transported to the Tuscaloosa County Jail and his bond was set at $120,000. Jones will be charged as an adult, Blankley said.

TULSA, Okla. - Former UNC Asheville pitcher Alan DeRatt has been promoted by the Colorado Rockies.
DeRatt was sent from Modesto, the Rockies High A franchise to Colorado's Double A franchise, Tulsa on June 12. The Drillers compete in the Texas League.
The Cary native had pitched well for Modesto this year as he has posted a 3-2 record with a 4.87 ERA as a middle reliever. DeRatt had 35 strikeouts in 40.2 innings of work during 16 appearances.
The 2008 Big South Conference Pitcher of the Year made his Tulsa debut on June 12th and made an emergency start for the Drillers. He pitched four innings and did not allow a run, scattering two hits and walking two at Northwest Arkansas.
DeRatt made his home debut on Saturday against Arkansas in relief. He pitched one scoreless and hitless inning.
He joins former teammate Kevin Mattison in Double A this year. Mattison is enjoying an excellent season for the Jacksonville Suns of the Southern League.

Colonists 3, Foppish English Dandies 0February 3, 2009 – 8:07 am by TheBaker
I'm sure you're all aware everyone is focused on some questionable refereeing in a rather large game on Sunday.
And no, I'm not talking about the Super Bowl (so maybe you didn't know then). I'm talking about the diabolical decision by referee Mike Riley in the Chelsea-Liverpool match, in which Riley sent off Chelsea's midfield maestro Frank Lampard for what appeared to be a 50-50 challenge on Liverpool's Xabi Alonso. Chelsea coach Jose Felipe Scolari was understandably unamused.
(I know, I know. Two posts in a row from me about refereeing. What is the world coming to?)
After being reduced to 10 men, Chelsea succumbed to two late strikes by Fernando Torres and fell 2-0. After the match all anyone wanted to talk about was Riley's decision to issue Lampard a red card and then his shocking decision not to do the same to Chelsea defender Jose Bosingwa, who purposely Bruce Lee-d Liverpool's Yossi Benayoun's arse later in the match.
Now, Liverpool vs. Chelsea wasn't the Super Bowl, but it was a critical match-up in this year's title race with both teams chasing Manchester United. People were quick to damn the referee's decision with some newspapers calling for "the hatchet."
Former Premier League referee Graham Poll had little sympathy for his former peer.
"Riley's style of refereeing is not one I enjoy. He doesn't have empathy with players, nor a feel for the game. He is a manufactured referee, but one who usually gets the big decisions right," Poll said.
Talk about your backhanded compliment. That's like, "You know, he's a really great lay, but his Herpes worry me," or "He could have been the biggest playa in the game, if he could only spit an ounce of game."
Because you know, Graham Poll never f-ed up on the field…wait a second.
Isn't this the guy who handed out three yellow cards to Josip Simunic in the 2006 World Cup Croatia-Australia game? Yes, yes it is.
"I thought it was going to be me out of the game, ridiculed for cocking up the World Cup," Poll said in 2007. "That's as low as I thought I'd ever feel about football and refereeing."
Well, apparently not.
On Monday, Poll continued to pile on Riley using him as the glowing example of refereeing failures.
"The problem is that such glaring errors are becoming more and more commonplace. I now find it impossible to support the old tenet that the referee is always right."
Glass houses ass hole. At least Riley can count.
But the incident is more than just a catfight amongst whistleblowers. It plays to the core of a hotly debated concept, one which Brits can admit, us Americans have taken the lead – instant replay.
Using technology on the field has long been a debate in England. Time and time again, calls are missed and fancy replay computer simulations are shown to viewers, but not officials.
James Lawton, a columnist for The Independent, liked what he saw from the Americans.
"What happened in the Super Bowl XLIII was that Ken Whisenhunt, head coach of the Arizona Cardinals, twice made use of challenges permitted him by the National Football League. On both occasions he was successful, which meant that though he lost, narrowly, to his former club Pittsburgh Steelers he did not do so without any sickening sense that his fate had been decided by the flawed judgement of match officials."
Wait, a second. Did a Brit just give the Yanks a pat on the back? They've been sore at us ever since the War of 1812 (which actually ended in 1815), and refer to us as the ex-colonies.
Well, instant replay might be the best American import to Britain since Burger King and Crest with fluoride. So you know what you foppish little English dandies – suck it. Suck it long and suck it hard.

Press release
New cooperation offers worldwide training on International Public Sector Accounting Standards
London, 08 April 2014
The Chartered Institute of Public Finance & Accountancy (CIPFA), EY and IASeminars have announced they will jointly offer a comprehensive range of training courses on International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) in selected countries around the world.
The recent sovereign debt crisis has reinforced the importance of credible and transparent reporting of government financial data. IPSAS enhance the quality of financial reporting and are being adopted around the world by an increasing number of governments, public authorities and international organisations - including the United Nations. Additionally, the European Union is considering the development of European Public Sector Accounting Standards (EPSAS) based on similar principles to IPSAS.
Speaking about the launch of these joint IPSAS training courses, Ian Carruthers, CIPFA's Policy and Technical Director and a member of the IPSAS Board, comments: "CIPFA is delighted to be working with EY and IASeminars on this important project. There is a growing international demand for high-quality IPSAS training, and this new collaboration will help provide the skills needed to operate within the increasingly demanding world of international public finance".
Thomas Müller-Marqués Berger, Global Leader International Public Sector Accounting at EY and also a member of the IPSAS Board notes: "As one of the global industry leaders in transparency, EY is pleased to be cooperating with two of the world's leading IPSAS training providers. We also see this joint project as the logical next step in the already successful cooperation between CIPFA and EY, and we look forward to contributing our global knowledge and experience gained from large-scale IPSAS conversion projects."
Notes to Editors
The cooperation between CIPFA- the leading professional body for public financial management, IASeminars - a worldwide financial training business, and EY - a global leader in assurance, tax, transaction and advisory services, will provide a unique global offering of technical training courses on International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS). This will include courses planned in 2014 for such cities as Geneva, Hong Kong, London, Lagos and Cape Town. Detailed teaching and materials on a broad and growing range of IPSAS topics will be delivered by respected and experienced professionals, representing the most comprehensive and topical IPSAS training currently available in the market.
Upcoming courses:
Course 3000: IPSAS (Accruals Basis) Immersion Workshop (8 days), London, 19.08.2014 – 29.08.2014

ROXBURRY — A foot or so of ice and mid-February cold: Pete Rathjens had ideal conditions when he set out onto Lake Hopatcong this morning.
With temperatures dipping into the mid-20s, the ice fisher took to his practiced task.
"Caught a lotta little ones," said Rathjens, who stepped onto the frozen lake at 9:30 a.m.
He caught a few sunfish. Nothing approaching to the record 48" muskie caught on the lake last week.
But today was a rehearsal of sorts. Next Sunday, the Lake Hopatcong Ice Fishing contest takes place. The competition is promoted by the Knee Deep Club, a local non-profit that promotes fisheries and conservation efforts on the lake, the largest freshwater body in New Jersey.
"Last year was terrible ice," said Rathjens, 51. "This year it's fantastic."
In recent years, he has caught small- and largemouth bass ranking among annual bests in registers kept by the Knee Deep Club.
Rathjens was among about a dozen fishermen on the lake. No one was catching much.
Tom Pedersen caught a decent-sized pickerel. He released it back into the lake's chilly waters. He, too, could be back Sunday, looking for more.

Roadddd Rahhshshssshhhhhhhh
Can you guys recommend some Genesis games for me? I want some good games. I originally bought it for my girlfriend. She likes Sonic, and a few others. I'd like to go out and pick up a few games that aren't very frustrating, but with good stories and good gameplay. I remember liking Bubsy, Headdy, and Road Rash.
Roadddd Rahhshshssshhhhhhhh
Personally I think these are great: Gunstar Heroes, Phantasy Star II, III, IV, Shinobi III, Micro Machines 2, Zombies Ate My Neighbours, and Ristar.
Prinny probably knows more.

Surprise! Alma Mosher finds her recipe in a cookbook - Mar. 05, 2014
Kathy Bockus/Courier
Alma Mosher of Mohannes is all smiles as she discovers her recipe for blueberry ice cream in this new cookbook, Taste of Home Fresh and Easy.
Kathy Bockus
St. Stephen
Sometimes we just like to surprise people.
Take Alma Mosher of Mohannes for instance.
Alma is a great cook, as her family and friends all agree.
In the past she has submitted recipes to magazines and theyve been published.
Recently one of our staff members, Joanne Mires, was leafing through a new Taste of Home recipe book delivered on consignment to the Couriers office.
The book fell open to a page and lo and behold, there was Alma Moshers name, her address in Mohannes and her submitted recipe for blueberry ice cream.
Thats when all the subterfuge began.
A quick call to Almas daughter, Ande Mosher, confirmed none of the family, including Alma, was aware her recipe had been published in this Fresh and Easy cook book.
Ande began planning and ordered two of the books. She then called her mom and asked her if she would come in to the Courier office on Milltown Boulevard and pick up the books for her.
Ever obliging, Alma agreed.
When Alma arrived, we told a, er, little white lie: we said we wanted to take her photo for publication in our Tuesday Courier in the Face of the Week section which appears regularly on Page 2.
Would she pose?
Oh, Ande warned me you were going to ask, Alma said with a smile as she agreed. (We of course had worked out a plan in advance with Ande.)
Alma was told one of us used to have a subscription to Taste of Home magazine. She responded she had also and the conversation was casual as she leafed through the recipe books pages.
Ande tells us she makes some of your recipes, like blueberry ice cream, Alma was told.
Oh thats a good one; all the grand kids like it. We make it a lot, said Alma, adding she had sent that particular recipe and one for chocolate sauce in to the Country Cooks magazine and the ice cream recipe was published. (Country Cooks and Taste of Home are published by the same company.)
We think theres a blueberry ice cream recipe on page 238 in there, Alma was told.
Alma leafed to that page and her face lit up with surprise and a big smile when she spied her name and her recipe.
Much good-natured laughter followed our apologies for the ploy used to get her to the office so we could take her photo when she discovered her recipe in the book.
Ever the proud mom, Alma then related how much she enjoyed working with Ande and her daughters buy fresh, buy local company, The Beet. She said Ande has opened her eyes to a new way of eating and new ways of food preparation.
Alma gathered up her cookbooks and after a quick hug, left.
As she was going out the newspapers front door, she was heard to exclaim, Oh! That was fun!
Thanks Alma (and Ande). It was fun for us too.
Alma has given us her recipe to share:
Blueberry ice cream
4 Cups of fresh or frozen blueberries
2 cups of sugar
2 tablespoons of water
4 cups of half-and-half cream
In a large saucepan, combine blueberries, the sugar and the water and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer uncovered until the sugar has dissolved and the berries are softened.
Strain the mixture and discard the seeds and skins. Stir in the cream and refrigerate overnight.
Using an ice cream maker, fill two third full and process according to manufacturers directions. Refrigerate any leftover mixture until ready to make into ice cream.
Allow to mellow in ice cream freezer or firm up in the fridge freezer for two to four hours before serving.
This recipe makes about one and three-quarters quarts.
