Outfit from 'Vincent and the Doctor'
The trench coat is the main thing in this outfit and its good to keep you warm and dry too :) £7o at House of Frasier to get this coat
This red v neck appears a lot in Amy's outfits, but i'm not complaining because it is super cute ;) £12 at marks and spencers
I think a scarf was a good idea to keep Karren warm in this episode. £5 from Marks and Spencers
You can't see the skirt that Amy is wearing in this episode because it is covered by her coat but i think its a rey one and for only £9.99 at uniqlo.co.uk i'm not complaining.
Tights to keep you legs warm. £2 Dorothy Perkins
These Boots are the exact ones from the episode. £119 at asos.com
Amy's necklace is back again! £17.89 at argos is the price
So there we have another one of Amy's outfits there for all of you. Stay tuned for more (lol)
14 comments:
So excited!I love collecting cosplay outfits and dressing up with my brother (he has the Doctor's outfits for both the tenth and the eleventh)and I have yet to find an Amy Pond one! Vincent And The Doctor was, I think, one of my favourite episodes ever.
I live outside of the UK, unfortunately, but I'm positive I can find the clothes elsewhere in American stores.
Thank you again, so much!Hi, I really like your blog but (not critisising) cos you can't see a full length pic of what Amy is wearing in this episode, at one point, when the Doctor, Amy and Vincent are going to paint the church, I noticed she is wearing grey shorts (just to point out). I am not critsising and I love your blog it's just I am a Doctor Who adict! I love it to bits:D and I take every detail into account! Thanks for posting stuff like this on and could you possibly find things for series 6? Thanks:)

Railways, Airports in Tamil Nadu: Implement Official language Act 1976 in Tamil Nadu.
Remove Hindi signage and announcements.
We would like to bring it to your attention, the Official language Act 1976, the rule that exempts Tamil Nadu from Hindi. We have noticed that Tamil announcements are conveniently skipped in airports and train stations in a state where Tamil is the only official language and where Tamils constitute about 90% of the state population. We wish to treat the speakers of every language 'equally and fairly'. We request you to implement the bilingual signage and announcements (Tamil and English) across the state. We believe that our request is within the law as defined in the 'Official language Act 1976'. Reference no. 2 is clearly an attempt to impose Hindi on Tamil Nadu.

This video from youtuber Shake the Future demonstrates a clever method for turning a soda can into an impromptu cheese grater. Carefully remove the top of the can with a can opener or knife, then poke several small holes in one side of the can. Pry open each of the holes so a little bit of the aluminum sticks out and can cut into the cheese. Once you have it all ready, rub your cheese block along the side of the can and you'll have freshly grated cheese. Grate the Cheese With a Soda Can | YouTube

For you L.A. types, Andre Agassi will be signing books on Nov.18, 7pm, at the Borders bookstore in Century City. Cheer him on at Borders or heckle him for disparaging our pristine and pure sport. How dare he speak poorly of our great sport of tennis!
In that part of town, I think he'll get a lot of people who really love him. There's no underestimating this guy's charisma.
this is the first book i've read in over a month! great so far. such great insight and honesty about how it feels to lose. i feel bad all week if i lose a usta match. i couldn't imangine how i would have felt losing my first grandslam finals like A did. much respect. halfway through.
No point spending money on his book. All the good parts are out in excerpts and interviews, as expected.
"heckle him for disparaging our pristine and pure sport. How dare he speak poorly of our great sport of tennis!" I'm hoping this ironic - or hopelessly naive. You can love pro tennis (or any pro anything) without thinking it's all perfect. Is football perfect? Is the law perfect? Is there anyone who's followed tennis seriously for any time who doesn't know many players sometimes tank matches (or at least, as in the Agassi case, aren't sure they can make the 110% effort always to win - which isn't quite the same and is even commoner), for example? I found it ironic that Safin, a prize tanker if ever there was one, was so critical of Agassi. As Jon Wertheim said in his column last week, people who are critical of Agassi don't want to know the truth about tennis period, much less about him. "All the good parts are out... so no need to read the book." That's not true either - what's out in extracts are highly selected and decontextualized very brief sections that have quite a different meaning in the context of the book. People still carping have almost never read the book; people who have read it are almost all interested and engaged.
Count me among the latter, just finishing the audiobook download today. While all of us can carp about aspects of the man's life--he was, at times, churlish, unmotivated, prone to fabrications, and all told, by no means the greatest player of his time--the book, the narrative, is really pretty astounding. The book really has something to say about his life, more so than merely recounting it.
And that's the thing though. Some of those excerpts need to be taken in context. Taken as a whole, they make a lot more sense. I didn't buy it, but I did read it into a couple sessions at the bookstore. Amazing reading. I might just buy it when it becomes available in paperback.
I went to the signing in New York. I thanked him for writing the book and told him I was a big fan. His head is huge.
All due respect to Andre. Wish I could've made it too. Would've had to fight the LA traffic across town. Family duties.

An Intermediate Range Ballistic Missile. A ballistic missile with a range of between 100 and perhaps 1500 nautical miles. Examples include the U.S. Jupiter (the missile systems removed from Turkey in 1963, some say in return for the removal of Soviet missiles from Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis); the ubiquitous SCUD missile and its variants, and the North Korean No-dong and early varieties of the Taepo-dong. India has the Agni; Russia moved on to the SS-20 Saber and simliar models. sothazi reminds me that in fact the first operational modern ballistic missile, the V2, was in fact an IRBM.

Liberal Imperialism in Germany: Expansionism and Nationalism, 1848-1884 (Monographs in German History v. 23)
By: Matthew P. Fitzpatrick (author)Hardback1 - 2 weeks availability
In a work based on new archival, press, and literary sources, the author revises the picture of German imperialism as being the brainchild of a Machiavellian Bismarck or the "conservative revolutionaries" of the twentieth century. Instead, Fitzpatrick argues for the liberal origins of German imperialism, by demonstrating the links between nationalism and expansionism in a study that surveys the half century of imperialist agitation and activity leading up to the official founding of Germany's colonial empire in 1884.Create a review

Probably go fire... We have a raid the moment I get home from work, and I haven't/won't have time to test on PTR, so I won't have time to really adapt to the new arcane. So I'll just respec to fire the day before patch, get full crit gems n shizzle, and go with fire at least the first week for normals, and then look at logs and stuff during that week to see what's the best theoretical spec, and what would be the best for the first couple heroic modes for the first week. I should get enough crit to make fire viable at least, and having both PoM and scorch as fire is very nice. The nice mobility from scorch, while keeping the nice burst from alter time Pom
I'm inclined to agree, only I didn't stay loyal to fire, I cheated on fire multiple times with different arcanes :P I hate to say it, but once you go..arcane....everything else is lame lol. Not sure how I'm going to get use to fire again ugh, it feels so boring now, compared to live arcane . Going to miss it surely
Well, I was haste/invocation arcane for a bit... so I was half-fire.. ;D
I think I'm just gonna stick out fire until the end... It's always been the more fun.

I thought this would be a wonderful thing to do with our Osage Orange (whom I named Majestic), since I have felt very drawn to her while living here. I purchased a journal at the dollar store, labeled it, and have made it a goal to write in it at least once a week. The first week went well (with great plans of making bark rubbings, sketches, etc.), but now I'm realizing I'm two weeks behind, so I'd though I'd do a blog post to at least keep track of all the photos I've taken!
I have found journaling about something to be an incredible experience in examination, both for things observed on the outside, and that which we observe inwardly about ourselves. There is something magical about taking the time to center ourselves and put our thoughts onto paper. The thoughts become tangible things that help us see things in a clearer light. "Following" a tree has been no exception, and I am looking forward to seeing how the year unfolds for my special tree.
I'd like to invite all of you, too, to choose a special tree or plant that grows nearby you, and keep a special journal just for it, for at least a few months. You could also share your findings at "The Tree Year", and see what others have done.
Till next time,
p.s. My father wrote an article about Osage Oranges here.

Marqueta, thank you so much for this. I'm thinking I've seen this idea in Jane Lambert's nature study guides. She the author of the Five In A Row curriculum that we love so much. I need to pull out my nature journals. You are such an inspiration to me in the nature department! I will follow with you, as soon as Michaela and I decide upon a tree to follow. I am glad you are enjoying your trees. When I was far from here, in Arizona for a summer, I missed our trees in a very real way.
What a lovely idea! I am not writing a journal, but I am carefully watching a very old Big Leaf Maple that we had severly *pruned* (by an old logger!). It had some disease and was in a state of rapid decline. Now there is only a (very large and tall) stump which we hope will send out new branches this spring! We have seen others do with with great success. Here's hoping it wasn't too late for our friend!

It's bad enough when Congress exercises unconstitutional powers. It's even worse when unelected bureaucrats do it. The FDA has decided, all on its own, that it has the power to reduce the amount of salt in your diet. Depending on your genetic predisposition and health history, this move could be life threatening to YOU. The FDA wants you to forget that . . . * the Constitution gives the federal government no jurisdiction over your nutritional choices DownsizeDC.org's Write the Laws Act (WTLA) would prevent bureaucratic schemes like this. It would . . . * Restore the Constitution's separation of powers by requiring Congress to approve all regulation Please send a letter telling your Representative and your Senators to introduce and pass the WTLA. You may borrow from, modify, or copy this letter . . . . You should be as angry as I am that the FDA is bypassing Congress and imposing a costly salt-reduction program on its own supposed authority. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/04/19/AR2010041905049.html As a policy, the proposal is dubious at best. Morton Satin of the Salt Institute raised the following issues in USA Today: * Salt is an essential nutrient. But the fundamental issue is this: The FDA has no Constitutional authority to create new laws. Only you people in Congress have this power. As this ridiculous salt-reduction plan proves, transferring lawmaking power to unelected bureaucrats is even more dangerous than giving politicians that power. Congress should . . . * stop the FDA from implementing this program The best way to accomplish this is to pass the Write the Laws Act. Please introduce this bill. END LETTER You may send your letter using DownsizeDC.org's Educate the Powerful System. James Wilson
* every person is unique -- many people might benefit from less sodium, while others could be harmed by it (see the sample letter below for examples)
* Restrict executive branch agencies like the FDA to implementation and enforcement
* Prohibit unaccountable bureaucrats from imposing their social engineering projects on your life
* When salt is significantly reduced the results are mixed: 30% experience a minor drop in blood pressure, about 20% experience a slight increase, and the rest experience no change at all.
* Women consume much less sodium per day than men do. Mandatory reductions may put women at greater risk of hyponatremia.
* Pregnant women on low-salt diets give birth to low weight babies, who then have a lifelong increased salt appetite.
* Several peer-reviewed publications indicate that congestive heart failure patients placed on low-salt diets die, or are readmitted to hospitals, far more frequently than those not placed on low-salt diets.
* Italians eat much more salt than we do, yet their cardiovascular numbers are nearly the best in the world.
* There is no one-size-fits-all prescription for salt consumption, because all of us are unique.

Genetic variability in the prion protein gene in five indigenous Turkish sheep breeds

Abstract Ovine susceptibility to scrapie is largely controlled by polymorphisms in the PRNP gene. Beginning in 2003, breeding programmes based on the known association between this gene and the susceptibility/resistance status of this disease have been implemented in many European countries. This is not the case in Turkey, where the PRNP gene was not genotyped in native sheep breeds until recently. We sequenced the complete open reading frame of the PRNP gene in 100 sheep belonging to five native Turkish sheep breeds (Akkaraman=21; Morkaraman=20; Tuj=17; Hemsin=23; Karayaka=19). Based on the variability found at codons 136, 154 and 171 (also referred to as standard codons), we determined six alleles VRQ, TRQ, ARR, ARH, ARK and ARQ. The archetype, ARQ, was the most frequent variant in each of the five breeds (across-breed frequency=0.710), while the second most frequent was the resistance-associated ARR allele (0.140). The susceptible VRQ allele exhibited the lowest frequency (0.015). The AHQ allele was not found in any of the analysed breeds. Beyond variability in the standard codons, we found ten additional amino acid variants (M112T, G127S, G127V, M137T, L141F, H143R, N146S, Y172D, Q189L and V213E), one of which, V213E, has not been previously described to our knowledge. Overall, this report may serve as a complement of previous studies on the genetic background of native Turkish sheep regarding the resistance/susceptibility status to classical and atypical scrapie.

Civil Defence Needs More Equipment – CGS
— Oct 2, 2016 5:46 am | Leave a commentAbdullahi Adamu Muhammad is the Commandant-General of the Nigerian Security And Civil Defence Corps. In this interview with RUTH CHOJI, he makes the case for more funds to better equip security agencies.
What are your plans for the Nigerian civil defense corps?
As you are aware, Nigerian security defense corps is a security institution with a specific mandate. The agency is in charge of protection of physical infrastructure. As you are aware, when you mention physical infrastructure in Nigeria, our attention quickly go to oil pipelines because of our over dependence on oil but our function goes beyond that. We monitor the power lines, mast, the Dams roads, bridges and even some buildings that belong to the government. NSCDC is also saddled with the responsibility of administration, supervision and training of private guard companies. If you go by the UN standard of ratio of police to a citizen, it is supposed to be one policeman to four hundred citizen of Nigerians and by our last censors, we were about a hundred and seventy million and the police we have are less than three hundred thousand which is grossly inadequate. There arose the need for government to register private guard companies that will complement the police in policing the nations. So we trained them and supervised them. When we took over, it was a department under the ministry of interior but when we took over, we really developed that sector and today, we are very proud of the private guards of Nigeria. We were able to get rid of quacks who were in the industry and foreigners who were almost taking over the industry. Today, no foreigner has any private security outfit because we have given it credibility by insisting that, there must be a retired military officer on the board of directors to guide their operations. We are also saddle with the responsibility of disaster management, be it natural or manmade. In this aspect when you hear disaster, your attention goes to NEMA. We work hand in hand with them. They are a relief agency because they don't have the power to safe guard but I am proud to say that, I have about three hundred officers in that department. We work with NEMA and now, I have deployed about half of that number to the North east to help to rehabilitee the IDPs. I am also trying to see that I move the corps to the next level,
What is that next level?
The next level is that, I was opportune to attend the meeting of civil defense in the whole world, because Civil defense is an international organization with headquarters in Geneva. Nigeria is the local chapter of civil defense and we are the number sixty-six in the charts of countries with civil defense. So when you go there, you will see lots of officers and it was the first time Nigeria was attending the event. I was there and what I saw showed me that, we have not even started. We have a long way to go. Civil defense worldwide has the same mandate and when you go Russia, you will see that they have a university of civil defense, minister of civil defense and under the ministry, you have directorate of fire service. It is a degree award institution. So my challenges have been equipment to work with. I want to thank the president, Muhammedu Buhari and my minister, Dr Abdulraman Danbazzau. He has done so much for the corps. He ensure that good amount of money was allocated to the corps for equipment and arms. We tried to see that we have enough to work with. If not that, the price of dollar has gone up, the budget meant for arms will not buy what we need.it will only buy half of what we earlier plan to because of the high cost of dollars now. So if we budgeted for about ten items, the cost has gone up, it means, we will only be able to buy about five instead items instead of the ten we planned. If I can get this equipment this year or next, I won't look for anything again for a long time.
The civil defence seems to have conflict of functions with the police and this has brought lots of confusion to a lot of people. How do Nigerians differentiate this?
That is why I first explained to you the mandate of the civil defense. I said that, we had a key mandate of protecting government properties and installations. We also protect security of lives but all security agencies have the same mandate of saving lives and properties. Police happen to be the lead agency. We have clashes from time to time but I keep telling my boys that, there is no reason for clashes because we are all working towards the same goal of securing the country. You can see that the IG called me so that we can be part of the team that went to the North/east on assessment tour with others. We met our men there; we talked with them on the need to have a synergy.
Some Nigerians were skeptic when the civil defense started carrying weapon, was that a right decision?
If you are complaining that a para military agency that is trained to protect lives and properties and that is fighting militants to stop vandalizing pipelines and criminals from carrying guns. Then what will you say about the militants, Boko Haram and other criminals? How do they expect us to protect the pipelines and other important government properties from people who are armed to kill? Boko Haram have sophisticated arms and they are using it to kill our brothers and sisters in the North/east, so why won't we carry arms? We are supposed to be better armed than them. That is why there is a need for more funds to better equip our security agencies.
It is common knowledge that the civil corps officers have accommodation problems, what are you doing about it?
As you are aware, the country is going through a difficult time. We want to live it to the government, but in areas of welfare, there is a soft loan that is given to officers and government has also provided mobility for the officers for housing, we have been encouraged to work with federal mortgage bank to provide mass housing scheme for the staff and we are still w working on that.
If you are asked to quantify how much it will cause Nigeria to make the civil defense meet up to world standard, what will it be?
I was with the minister of civil defense in Russia and we went on tour of their civil defense facilities all over the country and what I saw on ground was that, we have a long way to go. For instance, civil defense in Russia has a whole ministry and a minister dedicated to it. There is also a university and the equipment they have is something else. The civil defense has been there for more than 70 years while we just converted our own to para military about 12years ago.
But is there any way we can breach that gap?
The gap is too wide but our government is trying
Does the civil defense have enough manpower to fulfill its mandate?
That is a problem we have but my minister has given me a listening hear and he has written to the president on the need to get more hands. I had a meeting recently with the minister of solid minerals and he is requesting for about five thousands of my men to go and guard mining sites because government wants to diversify into mining. The minister of Agriculture also met my minister and said, they are proposing the creation of ranches all over the country and they will need my men to protect these ranches, and also farmers. We are also talking with the minister of water resources on the need to protect all our dams. Already, we have deployed our men to go and man one hundred and eighty (180) dams. The railway has just contacted us that we should go and protect their installations in twenty two states railway stations. Now I am deploying five thousand of our men with the police to go and secure liberated places in the North/east. So I need more man power.
There have been reports of loss of lives on the part of the civil defense officers since they started protecting the pipelines and other volatile places. Is it true?
We have lost lots of lives, even recently there was a minor crisis in Kaduna and one of our staff was killed.
What is being done to the families of those killed in the line of duty?
Well, the FG is really doing its best to ensure that their insurance and claims are paid
There have also been reports of cases of corruption within the corps. How are you handling such reports?
I wouldn't say I am not aware of such issues. We recently arrested a syndicate involved in employment racketeering. We have handed them over to ICPC. There are people that we saw millions in their accounts, but we have handed them over to the appropriate agency. I want to say that, as far as corruption is concerned, there have been minimal cases compared to other places.
Is it part of civil defense mandate to have their officers protect private citizens and politician?
When we came on board, I remember in 2007, the then President Obasanjo approved five thousand of our men to be VIP orderlies because he said, that was part of our mandate. He said the police should be allowed to do their job and the military. So government officials can be protected by us but not politicians.
Where do you hope to see civil defense in the next 5 years?
In the next five years, if wishes were horses, I will like to see our civil defense be like the one I saw in Russia and other countries like Turkey where vandalisation of government property is minimal and the response of civil defense is faster. I will love to have electronic devices that will help us monitor all the vessels coming and leaving Nigerians. We need to have such commands in every state. Right now we have it in the South/south where we monitor the pipelines.

The Hong Kong Open will increase its prize money to US$3 million next year and is close to signing blue-chip title sponsor Omega to replace UBS. Omega president Steve Uruqhart hinted at returning to the helm - they backed the event for five years from 2000 to 2004 before UBS took over - at the World Cup in Hainan last week and an Omega official confirmed yesterday a return was on the cards. She said: 'Hong Kong is very important to us and we are keen to be back.' Hong Kong Golf Association president David Hui Chun-yue said negotiations were still in progress with Omega, but confirmed prize money for next year would increase from US$2.75 million to US$3 million. 'We are talking to Omega as well as a number of other people. What we want is for this event to get bigger and with that in mind, we are increasing the prize money to US$3 million next year,' Hui said.

Antonio de Alcedo
Antonio de Alcedo (1735–1812) was a Spanish soldier and scholar.
Born in a settlement near to Quito (Ecuador), Alcedo was a military officer in the Spanish Army, and a notable historian and geographer. He is best known for his pioneering, five-volume work in American geography and history, The geographical and historical dictionary of America and the West Indies (Diccionario geográfico-histórico de las Indias Occidentales), published in Madrid between 1786-1789.
Early Life[edit]
At the time of his birth, Alcedo's father, Dionisio de Alcedo Herrera (1690-1777), was president of the Real Audiencia de Quito (1728 to 1737). He left Quito by his second year. During his early age, Alcedo moved around with his father as he took various administrative positions across the vast Spanish empire. His time in Panamá, while his father was the provincial governor, was a transformative period. There he followed his father in the construction of fortifications and his fascination for the American geography and history.
Spanish Officer[edit]
At the age of seventeen, Alcedo returned to Spain in 1752 to pursue a military career. The king granted him dispensation for not having reached yet the majority of age. By 1792, he had risen to the rank of brigadier general in the Spanish army.[1] In 1800 he was promoted to field marshal and in 1802 named governor of A Coruña, Galicia.
Historian and Geographer[edit]
During the traditional height of the enlightenment, between 1786-1789, Alcedo wrote what he called, a dictionary, which was another name for a work of reference in the encyclopedic tradition of Denis Diderot: The geographical and historical dictionary of America and the West Indies. The complete name in Spanish is, Diccionario geográfico-histórico de las Indias Occidentales ó América: es á saber: de los reynos del Perú, Nueva España, Tierra Firme, Chile, y Nuevo reyno de Granada. In it, he attempted to offer a detailed view of the history and geography of the Novohispanic New World possessions. The work was published in Madrid and issued in five volumes. He claimed to have consulted more than 300 works about the Americas (Indies), including the earlier work of Father Giovanni Coletti, S.J., "Dizionario del l'America meridionale" (Venice, 1771). His travels and his father's works, however, seems to have been the bulk of the knowledge he consulted and the motivation for such a monumental labor. Though the Spanish government, alarmed by the information about its possessions seeping out to traditional rivals, banned its republication and exportation, it was soon translated in all major European languages. In 1812, G. A. Thompson translated into English, and it still serves as an authority text.
Peninsular War[edit]
As Governor of A Coruña, Alcedo's garrison was able to hold back Marshal Soult's forces while Sir John Moore's troops embarked for Britain, following the Battle of Corunna. He finally surrendered on 18 January 1809.

Indoor Electric Grills - Cleaning and Care
Indoor electric grills and grillers are wonderfully convenient, and can be used to cook great tasting, healthy food. However, depending on what you're cooking, it can get messy. So here's my list of tips and tricks that will help you keep your grill clean and by doing so, prolong it's life.
First of all there are a few safety issues that you need to take note of:
Before attempting to clean an indoor electric grill, make sure the appliance is unplugged.Never immerse an indoor electric grill in water.Keep any exposed connections or wires - even those encased in plastic or aluminium - from water. And as always, check all electrical connections regularly for frayed or damaged wires.Also, since each indoor electric grill is different, consult the instructions provided by the manufacturer for additional precautions and recommendations.One thing that you can do prior to cooking that will help later with the cleaning process is to apply some olive oil to the grill plates with a paper towel or brush before you start cooking. This will help prevent food from sticking to the grill.And now in no particular order, a collection of hints and tips that will help you keep your grills, grillers and griddles as good as new:
Use a spatula to loosen up all the bits while it's still hot and wipe it down with a paper towel.While the grill is still slightly warm, thoroughly wipe off excess grease with dry paper towels. After the grease has been wiped away, apply a little more pressure and rub off the burned-on food. Although it might take a little force, if the nonstick finish is in good condition, even burned food will be very easy to remove from an indoor electric grill. When the mess is not easy to clean away, use a sponge and hot soapy water to dampen the surface. Allow the soapy water to soften the burned on food for at least thirty minutes, and while using pressure, wipe it away with a dry paper towel. The dry paper towel will work better than a damp rag or sponge once the burned food has softened.After using hot soapy water to clean the surface of an indoor electric grill, finish with a clean but slightly soapy dishrag. Even when an your grill cannot be submersed in water, it will be completely clean using this method. Wipe over it one last time with a clean dry paper towel, and use extra care around the protrusions and the upper and lower lip of the grill. These are areas where grease and food tend to accumulate. Finally, use a clean damp dishrag or sponge to rinse away the soap and any remaining debris. Rinse the dishrag and ring it out a few times to be sure all of the soap is gone. Otherwise, the next food prepared on the indoor electric grill will end up tasting like soap.For stubborn areas, make a paste of baking soda and water, apply to the area, let sit for a while. Then wipe with a non-abrasive cloth. Baking soda is non-abrasive, it will generally remove cooked on grease relatively easily and it kills germs.Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on your non-stick electric grill. These items can damage the non-stick surface of the grill plates and leave behind scratches on the outside of the grill.Dip a paper towel into your dish washing liquid and place it on your griddle, use your spatula to gently rub the spot. If that doesn't work, try a bit of cooking oil...grill warmed up.If it's not a non-stick grill, clean it with vinegar and water and a paper towel.You can wash the drip tray and plastic spatula on the top rack of your dishwasher. Do not wash these items on the bottom rack of the dishwasher or they may become damaged.You can buy special George Foreman Grill sponges. These sponges cost around 5 bucks for three or four and you can get them from Target or Bed, Bath and Beyond or anywhere where you can buy the grills.Pour a small glass full of water over the grill while it is still sizzling. This spatters a bit, so close the lid after pouring the water. Then take a wet paper towel and quickly wipe the grill, both top and bottom.Sometimes drips of food and fat can seep under the grill and not all fall into the drip catcher. Solve these problems by putting a sheet of Aluminium Foil across the bottom cooking plate and spray the foil with a non-cooking spray. You can then shape the foil to hit the drip catcher eliminating the counter mess. After you're done cooking, remove the foil and wipe off the top cooking plate and that is it.After you have taken the food off the grill and while it's still hot, place a few layers of wet paper towel on the bottom surface so that it covers the whole plate and close the lid. Be sure the catching tray is under the machine since the moisture from the towel will run off. The heat from the grill causes steam to form off the wet paper towels. This steam will loosen the oils and baked-on food. After you've finished eating take the paper towel off and wipe the grill surface clean with another towel, wet cloth or sponge.Peter Orchard

Bob Boone returns Sunday, recalls 1982 Angels
Former Angels All-Star catcher Bob Boone is spending the holiday with his former team, returning to Anaheim Stadium for Sunday's game against Boston to deliver the ceremonial first pitch as part of the ballclub's 50th anniversary celebration.
It's fitting that Boone would pitch on Easter for the heavenly-named team that resurrected the four-time All-Star's career. Just perfect -- except that Boone, 63, who would rather be performing honorary first-catch duties.
"I've got some great memories of being an Angel on what was one of the all-time greatest teams in baseball," said Boone by phone a few days ago from Harrisburg, Penn., where he was scouting the Harrisburg Senators, the Class AA affiliate of the Washington Nationals.
Currently the Washington Nationals' assistant general manager and vice president of player development, Boone played 19 major league seasons (1972-1990) with three teams, including the Angels from 1982 to 1988.
Even back then, it was the Angels who gave Boone, who was born and makes his offseason home in San Diego, a warm, sun-soaked and much-needed getaway.
"I was kind of kicked out of Philly, where the word was that I was over the hill and couldn't throw anymore, and Mike Schmidt, my good friend, said 'Why don't you let them trade you?'" recalled Boone about getting the Phillies freedom that allowed him, at age 34, to be a rookie all over again and closer to home with the Angels.
"I came to the Angels with a lot to prove in 1982. I needed to show them what I was made of, especially on that special team with guys who all knew how to play the game, had 8 to 10 years of experience and everybody has a big baseball card when you flipped it over."
Happily nostaligic, Boone recalled his 1982 teammates as he were crouched behind the plate on fresh knees and looking at the field through his catcher's mask and recited: "(Rod) Carew at first, (Bobby) Grich at second, Tim Foli at short, (Doug) DeCinces at third, Don Baylor was the DH and (Brian) Downing, Fred Lynn and Reggie (Jackson) were in the outfield. That was special. Nobody could afford to have a team like that today."
As soon as he reported to spring-training with the transient Angels, who split time between Casa Grande, Ariz., and Palm Springs, Boone knew the Angels had magic. One of his best memories came at his first infield practice at Casa Grande, when grounders, high-choppers and fungoes flew and the veteran All-Stars lunged, dove for catches, back-handed balls, trapped grounders, gunned baseballs for simulated outs.
"This went on so long, with play after great play, that the pitchers who were done with their work just hung out in the outfield, watched us and gave us a standing ovation when we were done," recalled Boone. "I had never seen anything like it."
Four former AL MVPs (Baylor, Carew, Jackson and Lynn) and six 1983 All-Stars "were a team of guys supposedly past our prime and (manager) Gene Mauch was our leader," said Boone, who got four of his seven Gold Gloves (1982, 1986, 1987, 1988) and his final All-Star nod (1983) while with the Angels.
Boone and Foli hit late in the lineup to set up leadoff batter Downing to become the RBI machine as Mauch, who already had the slugging power in the heart of the order, invented "little ball."
In 1982 the Angels had nine position players each play at least 138 games, nine players each register more than 100 hits and 93 victories but were stopped, 3-2, by the Milwaukee Brewers in the postseason.
Boone, who won the 1980 World Series with the Phillies, faced postseason disappointment again in 1986, losing 4-3 in the ALCS to Boston.
But two decades after retiring from the game, Boone remembers less about falling short with the Angels and more about being saved by them.

May, 2011, Vol. 11, Issue 05 Pseudo-Sciatica and Gluteus Minimus Trigger PointsBy David Kent, LMT, NCTMB Knowing the specific pain patterns of each muscle gives you many advantages over your competition and allows you to most effectively apply your specialized skills. This knowledge allows you to efficiently assess, educate and design treatment plans tailored to your patient's complaints. The gluteus minimus can be easily overlooked since the referred pain from this muscle is felt so deep and remotely from the location of the trigger points. Let's examine the gluteus minimus muscle, its anatomy and trigger point pain referral patterns and ways to help build your practice. The gluteus minimus is the deepest of the three gluteal muscles, is also the smallest in length and lightest in weight. It attaches proximally to the external surface of the ilium and distally to the anterior surface of the greater trochanter of the femur. (Image 1A). The muscle fibers of gluteus minimus and gluteus medius run in the same direction and produce the same action. When the lower extremity is free to move and all fibers of the gluteus medius contract they produce abduction of the thigh. When just the anterior fibers of gluteus minimus contract, and the lower extremity is free to move, they produce medial rotation of the thigh. When the lower extremity is in a fixed position, as during the weight bearing phase of gait or when balancing on one leg, the gluteus minimus, along with the gluteus medius, and tensor fascia lata, keep the pelvis level when the opposite limb is raised off the ground. The superior gluteal nerve arises from L4 through S1 and innervates the gluteus minimus, gluteus medius and tensor fascia lata. When the nerve is compromised due to trauma, disc involvement or other factors, the supporting action of these muscles are diminished. When the patient tries to balance on one limb, the pelvis falls on the side of the raised limb indicating a positive Trendelenburg sign. The referred pain from trigger points in the gluteus minimus may be constant in duration, severe in intensity and may cause the patient to limp when they walk. The discomfort may also interrupt their sleep if they roll onto the effected side. When active trigger points are present in the anterior fibers of gluteus minimus, patients will have pain and difficulty getting up out of a chair or standing up straight, following periods of hip flexion, as when seating in a car, watching TV, working at a computer or sleeping in a fetal position. Intake forms will help you ask the right questions to uncover all of the patient's symptoms. Zones and Trigger Points In images 1 - 3, "X" indicates the common location of trigger points. Solid red indicate Essential Pain Zones or the regions of referred pain that is present in nearly every person with active trigger points. The dotted red regions indicate Spillover Pain Zones or the regions of referred pain on some, but not all, patients with active trigger points. Trigger Points (TrPs) in the anterior fibers of gluteus minimus refer into the lower buttock and down the lateral aspect of the thigh into the fibular region of the leg. Rarely do the referrals cross the ankle, but on occasion will refer into the dorsum of the foot. (Image 1B). Trigger points in the posterior fibers tend to refer more medial into the lower buttock (then the anterior trigger points) and into the posterior thigh and proximal calf (Image 1C). These trigger points form for numerous reasons from direct trauma, inter muscular injections, postural distortions, running, swimming, walking too far and/or too fast over uneven terrain, and sporting activities such as tennis, handball or cycling. Resolve & Distinguish First identify, then eliminate or modify the factors that perpetuate the existence of trigger points. These may include periods of prolonged immobility such as seating in a car, watching a movie, working at a desk, sleeping in a fetal position or sitting on a wallet. It will be easy to distinguish gluteus minimus trigger points from others, like the piriformis or the overlying gluteus medius, based on their referral patterns and the location of the trigger points. Piriformis trigger points refer into the posterior thigh distally to the knee (Image 2), whereas the gluteus minimus trigger points also include the lateral thigh and calf (Images 1B,C). Gluteus medius trigger points are less likely to involve the thigh (Image 3). Range of motion is another way to determine which muscles are involved. Trigger points in the gluteus maximus restrict hip flexion, while trigger points in the piriformis restrict medial rotation of the thigh. Trigger points in the gluteus minimus and gluteus medius will restrict adduction of the thigh. Professionalism The success of your practice is influenced by your ability to educate your patients. Set your self apart and reinforce a professional image by using visual aids like trigger point wall and flip charts to show patients their pain referral patterns. Postural analysis photos make it easy for you to assess, show patients imbalances in their musculoskeletal system and document postural improvement over a series of treatments. Read "Getting Inside Your Patient's Head" (MT, January, 2011). Knowing the specific pain patterns of each muscle gives you the knowledge to efficiently assess, educate and design treatment plans tailored to your patient's complaints. I wish great success in the treatment room. Click here for previous articles by David Kent, LMT, NCTMB. Join the conversation
