Nothing says comfort food like chicken potpie. Chicken and vegetables in a rich and creamy sauce topped off with a flaky crust makes for a satisfying one-dish meal.
If you thought frozen potpies were good, you need to try making a homemade one. It's surprisingly easy to make a potpie from scratch, and I can guarantee it will be infinitely better than any store-bought version.
It's the savory sauce that makes the big difference. This version uses simple ingredients -- butter, flour, chicken stock and cream -- to create a sublime filling. I use poultry seasoning to impart flavor to the dish. If you don't have this aromatic seasoning blend in your pantry, you can make your own by grinding together 1 tablespoon each of dried rosemary, dried sage, dried thyme and dried marjoram in a spice grinder or mini food processor. Or you can simply season your potpie filling with a pinch of the aforementioned herbs.
Once the sauce is made, you can add chicken and your favorite vegetables. This version uses traditional ingredients like carrots, potatoes and peas. Roasted root vegetables like parsnips and turnips are also delicious in a potpie.
If you are short on time, you can pick up a rotisserie chicken at the grocery store for this recipe instead of baking your own chicken. This shortcut can save you about 30 minutes in prep time.
Once the filling is complete, top the pie with a pie dough and bake until heated through and the piecrust is flaky.
Besides being delicious, another wonderful thing about potpies is that they can be made a day in advance. If doing so, either top with the piecrust just before baking or make sure the pie filling is completely cooled before topping with the uncooked piecrust. You can also freeze the unbaked potpie to bake on a busy day.
Serves 8
3 split chicken breasts, bone in, skin on (about 2 1/2 pounds)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 cups water
1 cup peeled and finely sliced carrots (about 4 carrots)
1 cup peeled and diced white potatoes (about 1 large potato)
1/2 cup finely diced yellow onion (1 small onion)
1 cup fresh or frozen peas
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus extra for rolling out the dough
2 cups chicken stock
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
2 unbaked piecrusts (9-inch), homemade or store-bought
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
2. Rinse the chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Rub the chicken with the olive oil and generously season with salt and pepper. Place on a baking sheet and roast until cooked through, about 35 to 40 minutes. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then remove and discard the bones and the skin. Cut the chicken meat into large dice. You should have about 3 to 4 cups of chicken.
3. While the chicken is roasting, in a medium saucepan over high heat, bring the water to boil. Add the carrots, potato, onion and peas and cook until crisp-tender, about 8 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
4. Raise the oven temperature to 395 degrees.
5. In another large pot, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the flour and whisk until the mixture is golden brown, about 4 to 5 minutes. Whisk in the chicken stock and cream. Add the poultry seasoning and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring often, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken, carrots, potato, onion and peas. Stir to combine. Adjust the seasonings as necessary.
6. Pour the filling into a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. On a lightly floured surface, place the two piecrusts on top of each other. Roll the dough until it is big enough to cover the baking dish. Place the piecrust over the top. Flute the edges, if desired, and cut slits in the top for steam to escape. Brush the crust with the beaten egg. In case of overflow, place the baking dish on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, about 35 to 45 minutes.
Cooking tip: Sometimes I top the filling with biscuits rather than the piecrust. For a short cut, you can use canned biscuits, but I prefer homemade. Just add the biscuits 15 minutes into the cooking time to prevent burning.

The Crates are sized very inconsistently and strangely. I measured my two pairs of Crate Routes, both are non selvedge and raw. The Indigos are tagged 36", the dark blue/black ones are 38" (I know... wow). Here are the measurements: Indigo(W36) / dark blue/Black(W38) Waist: 35" / 35" Thigh: 12" / 11" Knee: 9" / 8" Hem: 8.5" / 7.75" As you can see, the W38s are way slimmer than the W36 ones. I usually wear a 32-33" tag size in jeans. Both pairs above sit a little loose but just on the waist ONLY. In fact, you can see on the jean that the waist band is built to accomodate a bigger belly but the rest of the jean is sized like much smaller jeans. So if you are a big person with lots of meat in the derriere and legs, no way these jeans would fit! It's like they made these big sizes for people with a small belly problem but slim/average legs. Which actually is not necessarily a bad thing because there's enough of us who have this problem. The Indigo (W36) ones fit great, like a slim fit jean. The Dark blue/blackish (W38) ones fit like a skinny jean. Makes no sense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yet another example of why buying stuff online can be a pita if the QC is not good.

Notes from Cleveland code retreat
I attended the day-long Code Retreat at Lean Dog's floating office on Sunday.
We worked in pairs for 45-minute blocks of time, building Conway's Game of Life. In each session, we started from the beginning. We didn't build on previous code.
After each session, teams talked about what stuff they discovered. Then we reorganized into new pairs and started working from the beginning again.
First pairing
At first I paired with a C# developer. While other teams went right into writing test programs, we spent a fair amount of time talking and sketching out ideas about how to model the game.
Then we made a grid that knew how to generate the next state just by copying itself into a new grid.
We planned to add in code to support each of the four rules of the game of life one by one.
So, we wrote a test that created a grid with just a single living cell. Then we told that grid to make a grid for the next generation, and our test verified that the single cell survived the copy.
Then we started working on the first rule: if a cell is alive and has less than two neighbors, it dies.
We burned through the reminder of time sketching out ideas on my clipboard. By the end of our time, it was clear that we only needed to pay attention to living cells and neighbors of living cells.
It was also clear that the time spent writing the first test and then writing the code to satisfy the first test did nothing to move us toward a real solution.
Second pairing
Next I worked with a Java guy. This time, we did something a little closer to TDD.
We decided to start from the point of view of an end-user firing up the game. The user would want to make a grid, add a few living cells, and then tell the grid to generate its next state.
The first code we wrote was a test and we started writing tests almost immediately. In the test, we instantiated a Grid class. That test blew up with an error, since no Grid class existed. So then we wrote a grid class. It had no methods or attributes, but that was all we needed to write in order to satisfy our test.
Next we wrote a new test that instantiated a grid and then added a single cell by calling an (undefined) addCell(…) method.
After seeing that test crash with an error, we wrote an addCell(…) method that was a no-op, because that's all our tests required us to do.
Then we wrote a test for rule one, where a living cell with less than two neighbors dies.
In this test, we made a grid, added a single cell, and then told the grid to create a new grid that represented itself in the future. Then we used an assert to verify the new grid had no cells.
First we added a "cells" instance-level ListArray attribute to our grid class. Then we wrote a generate_next_grid method on our grid class, and all that did was instantiate and return a new grid with an empty cells.
And bingo, we had enough code again to pass our test.
At this point, I became convinced that the kind of testing we were doing was harming our productivity. We had fallen into some kind of xeno's paradox* where we would never actually get anything done, because we could always think of some new test that applied to a trivial subset of the project, and then work on writing code to satisfy that test.
*A dude shoots an arrow at a target. Before the arrow gets to the target, it has to cross half the distance to the target. Then it can cross the other half of the distance. But now it has to cross half of the remaining distance, so it does that.
Then it has to cross half of that remaining distance, and then half of the remaining distance after that, and so on for infinity.
Since the arrow has an infinite number of partial distances to cross, the arrow will never reach the target.
Read more about it here.
I was itching to solve a real problem, rather than just watch lights blink from red to green, so I cajoled my partner into writing a test for the blinker pattern, which is when a 3×1 rectangle of cells converts to a 1×3 rectangle of cells on the second turn, and then on the third turn, converts back to a 3×1 rectangle.
So, we started talking about how to implement the rules. We decided we needed to figure out for every cell that was near a living cell, how many living neighbors it had. So we wrote a method to generate the coordinates for the eight neighboring cell to a particular cell, and wrote a test for that.
Then we were going to make a neighbor_count hashmap attribute on our grid and we were going to use that to link cells to how many neighbors each had, and then the time ran out.
At this point, I had a good feeling about the algorithms involved in solving this project.
Third pairing
Right before the third pairing, a much older fellow raised his hand and asked if anyone wanted to work together on a solution that only tracked the living cells. That's the approach I was using, so I paired with this guy. He said he didn't care what language we used, but he was a lousy typist. So I said I could do the typing and we could use python.
At first we excitedly talked over each other and drew pictures until we confirmed we had the same solution in mind. It turned out my partner was an old common lisp hacker, and once he realized that I understood what he meant when he talked about stuff like &rest and cadr, we got along really well.
The first bit of code I wrote was a cell class with an x and a y attribute, and a method to generate a list of eight nearby cells.
I wrote a quick test in the same file as my code for that to make sure the execution was correct.
Of course, that test failed. I had lots of syntax errors because I was writing so fast and defending against good-natured jabs about how vim was so vastly inferior to emacs.
After a few cycles of fixing typos and rerunning the tests, we got the syntax errors out of the code. Then we attacked the project of generating the next state of the grid.
I had already seen how easy it was to write a test for the blinker pattern, so I wrote a quick test for that. The test made a grid with three cells in a vertical rectangle, then told the grid to generate the next state, then it tested that in the next state, the three cells were in a horizontal rectangle.
We wrote a grid class with a dictionary attribute of living cells in the current generation and a dictionary attribute of cells that would live in the next generation.
Then we wrote the function in our grid class to generate another grid. The function did an outer loop on all the living cells, then for each living cell, it looped through all the neighbors of that living cell, and then did an inner loop of all neighbors of that neighbor, and then counted up how many were alive.
Then we implemented the four rules of the game with two if-clauses.
We ran the test again, and of course, the code was again littered with indentation errors and mismatched parentheses because of how fast I had been typing and moving stuff around.
Then the timer went off. I stayed put while everybody was gathering in the middle to talk about how everything went. Within about 30 seconds I got the last few silly typing glitches fixed, and BAM. The test passed.
I walked over to my partner and told him we solved it.
Then we listened to other teams talk. The conversation centered around naming conventions that people were coming up with, like "sustainable neighborhood" and "four horsemen".
I raised my hand and asked if anybody had written tests for any of the patterns in game of life beyond the blinker pattern, like tests for the glider pattern, or any of the other patterns shown on the wikipedia page.
Nobody replied to that. Instead the conversation shifted to a discussion of whether or not booleans hidden behind getters and setters were a sign of a bad design.
I think it was while somebody was talking about writing tests for their (nonexistent) display code that my partner leaned over and said "This is a drunkard's search." Of course, I didn't know what meant, so he explained it. Here's the wikipedia entry:
Conducting a drunkard's search is to look in the place that's easiest, rather than in the place most likely to yield results. Taken from an old joke about a drunkard who loses his car keys while unlocking his car and is found looking under a streetlamp down the road because the light is better, it has been an object of consideration in the social sciences since at least 1964.
Fourth pairing
I asked if anybody wanted to see a python solution, and four of us worked together, with me doing the typing.
First I described how we would need to find the eight neighboring cells of a particular cell. So I wrote a test for that, and then wrote the code to satisfy that test.
Then once that was finished, I described what the blinker looked like, and I wrote a test for that.
Then I reused the approach that we came up with in the third pairing, and then got it working fairly quickly.
At one point I showed the code we had written to one of the people running the event, and he pointed out two things (this is roughly paraphrased, and I hope I am getting these ideas correct):
- I had four if-clauses in a single function, and each if-clause tested two independent variables. So that means there were dozens of paths through the function that would have to be tested.
- My blinker test could be satisfied by code that just hardcoded the expected results, rather than built an actual game-of-life system. My test didn't force a complete solution.
Both points illustrate the biggest difference in the TDD mindset versus whatever it is called that I do. (design by intuition?)
The fact that I didn't have a test for every path that I created didn't really concern me, because I was focused on getting the blinker pattern to work. If that blinker pattern test failed, then I might go in to my code and make sure that what I wrote was really what I meant, or maybe I'd even throw it all out and start from scratch. But I wouldn't worry about covering all corners of this version until I was confident I was on the right track.
As for the second point, I use tests to catch errors, not to tell me what to write. I wouldn't write code that returns a hard-coded list of values just to pass a test, unless I actually thought I could solve the real problem by doing that.
Anyhow, we got everything working pretty quickly this second time. You can see the output from my fourth pairing here.
After you download that code, you can run the tests like this:
$ python life.py
Ran 2 tests in 0.001s
Those two dots mean that my two tests passed. I spent the remainder of the time showing how to use the interactive interpreter and how to write doctests. I've tested a few of the patterns from the wikipedia page, and my code seems to do the right thing, but I'm not absolutely convinced that this implementation is correct.
Fifth pairing
I worked with two guys and we used ruby and rspec. I described the algorithm that I had used in the last two times, and we decided to work on building that.
We went with the approach of not writing any more code than was required to satisfy the tests.
So, first, we wrote some tests to instantiate a cell class, then we wrote some tests to call a neighbors method on the cell class and verify that it return a list of eight things, and then we verified that the first and last and elements in the neighbors list were at the position that we expected them to be at.
Then we started work on the grid class. We wanted to make sure that two different objects with the same values for their x and y attributes would be considered equal. But none of us knew how to redefine the == operator in ruby, and while we were researching this, the time ran out.
Again, I felt like we had fallen into the trap of slicing off trivial subsets of the real problem, and solving them, rather than attacking the real problem.
Writing tests to check for errors (which is what I do) is not test-driven development. I daydream about solutions until I find one that I like, and then I build it, and I see if it works by writing tests to cover all the use cases I can think of.
My design comes from idle thoughts and doodles on my notepad, not from the testing.
Final note: I've tried my best to keep any generalizations and extrapolations out of this post. I don't mean for this to be seen as an attack on anyone's style of work. I'm very, very grateful for everything I've learned about how to write tests for software from the TDD community.
Looking for a few CLE pythoners for a quick project
I can build it myself, but it's going to take a lot longer. I'm looking for a few people to help me build a geographical search app.

This will be for some combination of money up front and equity.
I expect to launch in anywhere from six weeks to three months after the start.

NFL picks for the week
Football is dialectical materialism.
See here for point spreads.
The general rules
- Figure out what will cause the most disappointment to the most number of people and bet on that.
- Bet on the region with the most ties to the criminal underworld.
- Bet on the region involved in an up and coming mass movement.
Some picks
Arizona will win over Oakland. This is rule 3 at work. Arizona is a big Tea Party state. Oakland is in San Fransisco's back yard. The political subtext shouts at anyone willing to listen. The Tea Party is still in phase 3, so the cooptation handbook rules to apply here are:
- build the movement as a brand
- fade out details about what the brand stands for
- establish the villain
Bet on Baltimore to trash Cleveland. Rule number 1 favors this outcome. Cleveland wants this victory bad, and disappointment makes excellent satellite food*. Rule 2 would favor Cleveland, but remember that the FBI raids have dismantled the lower and middle tiers of the local machine. Rule 3 doesn't apply in either city.
San Fransisco will take Kansas City. This one is complex. There's an Alamo strategem involved. Kansas City won't just lose — this game might include a few season-ending injuries. San Fransisco must emerge from this game as a merciless villain.
Later this season, another team will get the chance to avenge Kansas City's humiliating defeat.

True story
Son #2, Oliver, has been battling constipation for three days now with no relief. He's been walking around huffing, puffing, squatting all day today. Poor little guy has been miserable.
Anyhow, I turned on some death metal radio show (metal meltdown on 91.1) on the radio really loud, mostly just to pester my wife. After just a minute, suddenly O (that's what we call him) let out this primal scream and blasted out an epic dook1 into his diaper.
I'd like to see Christian Rock do that.

Farm report spring 2010
Help me prep my new 8 x 16 garden bed
I've already got one 8×16 bed that I've been growing vegetables in for the last four years, and I want to expand. So I set up 2″x12″ boards around a new 8'x16′ section of my backyard that I intend to use for a new garden.
Right now, the space is a big mess. Imagine a yard that nobody mowed for 15 years and you'll have a fairly good picture.
My soil is dense clay with lots of really nasty roots throughout. It drains poorly and is very compacted.
Here's what I'm thinking about doing:
- Cut everything down as close as possible.
- Double dig the area and mix in compost and straw.
- Plant a cover crop.
- Dig in the cover crop in the early summer
- Grow some vegetables, mostly stuff that can handle dense clay soils.
What kind of cover crop should I use? I need something cold-tolerant. I'm more concerned with improving soil structure and adding more humus to the soil rather than boosting nitrogen levels right now.
Side note: I know all about the idea of just turning this into a raised bed, filled with a truckload of fancy store-bought dirt. There's something about that idea that just doesn't appeal to me. I want to enrich what I have, not just import the finished product from somewhere else.
Sure, this idea doesn't really withstand scrutiny; after all, the straw I'll be mixing in and mulching with later is purchased.
But somehow buying an $8 bale of straw, and $40 worth of composted horse shit to mix in seems more in the spirit of sustainability than spending hundreds of dollars on a truck load of topsoil shipped in from who knows where.

Condiment Lover: S'chug
While rooting around Holy Land Market the other day, I came across one of my favorite condiments:s'chüg. It's a Yemenite/Israeli hot sauce, a rough mash of red chiles, sweet red peppers, a big dose of garlic and cilantro. It's sharply hot but not painful, with a rounded sweetness from the sweet peppers. It's really delicious, so much so that I like to eat little spoonfuls right out of the jar. There's also a green version, made from green chiles and peppers.
Because it's so flavorful, and has a pleasant, rough texture with lots of chile seeds, you can use it to add zip and color to almost anything. I like it stirred into hummus, added to soups (especially lamb-and/or chickpea-stews), spooned on top of steak, or used as a sandwich spread. Throughout much of the Middle East it's a popular condiment on falafel and shawarma sandwiches.
You can get s'chüg at Holy Land Market (122 St. Mark's Place) or Fairway.

We had a bit of "normal" yesterday. We got up and went to work and picked up some Chinese food for dinner and just relaxed. No demolition of the floor, no hammering or prying or anything. I was so tired, I fell asleep at 9:00.
When I got into work yesterday, there were 17 voice mails needing attention. I dealt with them and then tried to get organized. I think I was still running on adrenaline from the weekend. We got through the day and collapsed.
I slept like a rock. I could have slept more hours but the ones I did sleep were deep and restful. I think that's the first night since last week that I can say that. It felt good. Today, however, every muscle is saying "hey, notice me!". And I'm supposed to walk up with my group to see a traditional light show at one of the local department stores.

Mark Leslie Norton (February 7, 1956 – April 5, 2007), better known as Mark St. John, was a guitarist best known for his brief work with the rock band Kiss from April to November 1984. He played on the band's Animalize album and a few dates on the subsequent tour before being replaced by Bruce Kulick.
Prior to Kiss[edit]
Before joining Kiss, St. John was a well known and respected teacher and guitarist for the Southern California cover band Front Page. After leaving Kiss, he formed a band called White Tiger, featuring David Donato (lead vocals), his brother Michael Norton (bass/backing vocals), and Brian James Fox (drums). Demos that the band had recorded with producer Andy Johns and guitarist Neil Citron, prior to Mark joining, apparently led to Donato's equally short tenure with another legendary band, Black Sabbath.
St. John was only with Kiss a short time, but he was featured on the album Animalize, the second album of the "unmasked" period. This turned out to be one of Kiss's most successful studio albums, aside from those made by the original lineup. St. John's only video appearance with Kiss is in the video for the hit single "Heaven's on Fire".
During the sessions for the album, which was recorded in mid-1984, St. John clashed with the other members of the band, and according to Paul Stanley, they had difficulty putting together solos, with Paul saying that Mark had trouble playing the same thing twice. Paul also said that he had to dub in certain parts during Mark's solos to make them work better with the song. He also developed arthritis (Reiter's Syndrome), which caused his hands and arms to swell. He was all but unable to perform live as a member of Kiss, and only played two full shows and one partial show during the Animalize tour, with Bruce Kulick playing the rest.[3] Mark St. John was officially replaced by Bruce Kulick on December 8, 1984.[4]
He is also the only Kiss member not to appear on any album front cover, since the Animalize cover only features a tapestry of animal prints. However, he is posing with the rest of the band on the album's back cover.
After Kiss[edit]
In January 1985 St. John teamed up with vocalist David Donato and drummer Barry Brandt of Angel to work on developing some demo ideas. By March he was playing live again, appearing at an all-star jam session at the FM Station Club. The lineup included Rudy Sarzo and Tommy Aldridge (Kiss Revolution, April/May 1985). St. John also performed at a sold-out audience at a benefit jazz concert for Greenpeace. Some of the legendary jazz musicians playing alongside St. John included the Steve Hooks Band, Stu Nevitt (Shadowfax), Slyde Hyde (Tom Scott/Supertramp), Al Aarons (Count Basie), plus other special all-star guests. (Kiss Force)
St. John and Donato soon formed White Tiger. They had written most of the material for the album by mid-1985 and set out to complete a lineup with which to record. The band also included St. John's younger brother, Michael, on bass, but was completed with the addition of Brian James Fox on drums. While the independent release did well on that level selling some 50,000 copies, and the band gigged around California, St. John and his band White Tiger joined up with Garry Lane owner of Logic Productions who promoted many top bands in LA. St. John and Lane became good friends meeting for a second time at Trojan Studios in Garden Grove, California. That is where St. John and Lane came up with the idea to play the legendary club known as THE HOT SPOT located in Huntington Beach, California owned by Gennie Gromet who was the ex-wife of Dick Dale from the band Dick Dale and the Del-Tones. The band didn't manage to break and split while working on demos for a second album in 1988. St. John teamed up with Jeff Scott Soto in 1988 to make a demo. St. John also did some session work performing lead guitar on "Livin' for My Lord" on Ken Tamplin's 1990 album, Axe to Grind. Tamplin is an inspirational Christian rocker more famed for his involvement in the band Shout. Tamplin has also co-written material with Gene Simmons of Kiss. St. John also worked with former Knight Rider star David Hasselhoff, even appearing in his video, "Is Everyone Happy".
St. John made a demo in 1990 with fellow former Kiss member Peter Criss. This band, known as the Keep, became what was essentially White Tiger, with Peter Criss replacing Brian Fox on drums, and David Donato using the alias David McDonald. This lineup performed live just once, on May 2, 1990 at a drum clinic at the Guitar Center music store in Lawndale, California.
When the band started shopping their demo (credited as Peter Criss) around the response was universally negative. One cassette demo to circulate simply featured "Love for Sale", "Long Time", and "All Night Long", though they had also covered Lee Michaels' 1971 hit "Do You Know What I Mean", and had other original material such as "Between the Lines". By early 1991, the difficulty shopping the demo, and St. John's need to get on with making a living, led to friction between Criss and him, and he left the band (which eventually became Criss).
He was in a short lived band with Phil Naro called the Mark St. John Project that released a limited edition EP in 1999, and he also made an appearance on a KISS expo in New Jersey. He later released an all instrumental CD in 2003 called Magic Bullet Theory.
In later years, St. John did not make many public appearances. However, he was rumored to have returned to his pre-Kiss gig as a guitar instructor in the Southern California area. In 2006, he did a two week jail sentence in the Theo Lacy prison in Orange, CA for possession of drug paraphernalia and attempted destruction of evidence, and got badly beaten by other inmates, either for "snitching" on a drug dealer or, according to other inmates, for stealing from them.[5]
St. John died on the morning of April 5, 2007. According to the Orange County Coroner, the cause of death was a brain hemorrhage. Family and friends say it was brought on by a beating at Theo Lacy Jail in Orange County several months earlier. St. John is survived by his siblings, Michael, and Kathleen as well as his parents Les and Terry Norton who reside in Orange County, California.

ST. MARY'S CITY, Md. – One day after falling to the nation's No. 4 ranked team, CUA bounced back in a big way, downing St. Mary's 11-4 on Thursday afternoon. The Cardinals pounded out 17 hits on the day and scored multiple runs in three innings, including four in the 8th. Seven Cards totaled more than one hit, led by Stefan Poggioli with three.
CUA struck first with three runs in its half of the 2nd. A one-out single by Marc Hanna got the Cards started and Brendan Breslin followed with an infield single.
A St. Mary's error then loaded the bases and Poggioli's fielder's choice brought home the first run. Pat DeToro drove in the second run with a single and another Seahawks error allowed CUA's third run to cross.
St. Mary's got on the board with a single run in the bottom of the frame, but CUA came right back with two more in the top of the 3rd. Mike McFarland's single back up the middle plated Breslin to make it 4-1, and Poggioli later came across on a wild pitch to increase the lead to four.
DeToro singled home McFarland in the 5th to give CUA a 6-1 advantage, and after Poggioli scored on Charlie Dillon's groundout in the 7th, the Cards found themselves ahead by six.
The Seahawks pulled to within 7-4 in the 7th when they scored three times. An error by CUA allowed the first two runs to come home and Eric Skrzyniarz's single brought home the Seahawks' fourth run of the afternoon.
CUA came right back with four runs in the 8th to pull away for the win. Hanna again got things going with a single and Breslin followed with a single to left this time.
McFarland brought in Hanna with a single to right center, and both runners moved up one base on the throw home.
Poggioli continued his hot streak, ripping a single down the left field line to plate both Cards and make it 10-4. A two-out single by Kalokitis brought in Poggioli, but Dillon was tagged out on the play, retiring the side.
Jonah Jimenez and Peter Gartland combined to throw two scoreless innings in the 8th and 9th for CUA, helping to lift the Cardinals to their 18th win of 2013.
On the mound, CUA starter Rob Steinkopf went four innings, struck out two and allowed only one run, before turning things over to Sean Van Gieson, who went two innings and struck out four.
Josh Martin, Jimenez and Gartland finished things off by throwing an inning apiece.
St. Mary's starter Carlos Cruz went 4.1 innings, allowed 10 hits and six runs.
CUA is now off until Sunday when the Cardinals will travel to Pennsylvania to face Lebanon Valley. The first pitch is scheduled for 1 p.m.

text: Hoosier Park's first concert of the season started off with a bang! Both shows were filled with enthusiastic fans who were hyped to get a chance to see the two country stars. The night began with the 2011 promotional drivers meeting with 30 lucky fans to sign autographs on t-shirts and media guides. Afterwards the drivers were able to meet with Pam Tillis and Lorrie Morgan to take some photographs and welcome them to Hoosier Park. Before the concert began, Hoosier Parks new TV host Rachel McLaughlin was on stage with Dash, the local radio host of WMBH in New Castle, to announce all the promotional drivers and perform a T-shirt toss for the fans. The night ended with Lorrie and Pam and a flawless performance with several of their classic hits! What a great night for both artists and Hoosier Park!

This just in: According to experts, we are being irradiated by our food, water, air, the sky and even by our computers and smartphones. We are even being irradiated by certain elements stored in our own bones. Aaaagh! The enemy within! Run for your lives! But where? Where can you hide in a radiation soaked universe?
Relax. It's okay. Contrary to the fuzzy notions many people have about radiation, it's actually as natural as granola and rarely harmful (and just to make it clear: I am not now and have never been on the payroll of the nuclear industry). To most people the word "radiation" is synonymous with poisonous and deadly. Along with that are images borrowed from the pages of comic books of radiation accidents mutating humans or animals to create super powerful monsters or heroes.
Quiz: Fact or Fiction: Radiation Sickness
It was a bite from a radioactive spider, after all, that turned Peter Parker into the original Spiderman (later the story was retold with a genetically engineered spider, to jive with the latest poorly understood technology). And I think it was a massive dose of gamma radiation that turned Dr. David Banner into the Incredible Hulk and I dimly remember something about radiation and the giant monster Mothra of old Japanese monster movie fame.
But these are all fiction, as is the idea that all radiation is harmful. The reality is that we live in a sea of radiation and have done so for the entire history of life on Earth. And yet here we are.
Outside of science fiction the only thing we have to worry about are large doses of certain kinds of high energy radiation — like ultraviolet light, x-rays, and some of the heavier particles that are flung from the decaying nuclei of radioactive materials. If you wear clothes, hats and sunscreen, you have the first one under control. X-rays are not something we typically encounter outside the highly regulated space of a medical establishment, so we are pretty safe on that count. As for the rest, unless you work around these materials or are an astronaut, they are not something you need to worry about. The typical exposure we get is so small that the potential harm is negligible.
ANALYSIS: Nuke Disaster Spawns Mutant Butterflies
Larger doses are dangerous, of course because those more powerful forms of radiation can penetrate cells and damage our DNA. I'm not an expert, but I believe that most of the time that just causes a cell to die, which is no big deal to your body overall, since cells die all the time. Sometimes it makes a cell turn cancerous, or alters a gene in a gamete, which can lead to birth defects in the next generation. And that's bad. But the odds of any of this radiation remaking us into superheroes are about the same as me reproducing the statue of David by taking aim at a block of marble with an AK-47.
So overall, there is not a lot to worry about. Radiation is our milieu.

Despite an interesting journey onscreen so far, Neha Dhupia, who will be seen in Gandhi to Hitler, feels that the film world is not taking notice of her potential. The babe gets candid on her tryst so far with Bollywood…
Miss India-turned-actress Neha Dhupia is not someone to shy away from challenges; on the contrary, she loves them. And that's what keeps her going. It would not be incorrect to say that slowly and in a smart way she has made a little place for herself in the Hindi film industry.
After a long gap she returns onscreen in another offbeat avatar – Eva Braun (Adolf Hitler's partner and wife), in her latest film, Gandhi to Hitler. About playing the historical character Neha says, "It was a challenging role. And I love challenges." Unlike Hitler, there is little information available in history books on his long-time partner-turned-wife, but Neha lapped every little write-up and picture she could find to familiarise herself with her part.
This is not the first time she has done something unconventional. Remember Ek Chalis Ki Last Local, Mithya, Raat Gayi Baat Gayi and the very recent Phas Gaya Re Obama? So far she has excelled in the off-the-beaten-track kind of work. Is that why she consciously treads that path? "No, the conscious decision is always to be associated with the right kind of script," insists Neha. "I don't know if something is going to work or not going to work. But at my level, I know my work is immortal and it is going to stay longer than me. And I want to be associated with the right script at least at the level of story-telling. If a film works or doesn't work – that's really not in my control."
However, she strongly relies on gut instinct. The Cochin-born actor explains, "You know, I am extremely happy with the response Phas Gaya Re Obama got. I am so happy that I am on the same wavelength as the audience. But at the same time I am not shying away from commercial cinema or smaller budget films. Last year I also did Action Replayy. It's really not the size of the film. I think the size of a film is defined on the Friday it releases. You could spend 50 crores and next day your worth could be zero, or you could spend three crores and the next day your worth could be 30 crores."
It is no surprise that Neha is a favourite with a lot of small-time and offbeat filmmakers. The Qayamat debutant said that she did Phas Gaya Re Obama because the director wanted no one but her to play the female Gabbar. After such preferential treatment, how does she cope with small parts in mainstream multi-starrers (Singh is Kingg, De Dana Dan and Action Replayy)? "No, I am not okay. It's just that I get great roles. In Action Replayy, I had a good role – at least on paper. But it's unfortunate when such things happen. When a film goes through an edit, it is for the benefit of the film. See, I am not going to sit here and cry about what happened and what didn't happen," she insists.
"But, yes, all I am saying is that I have been in the industry for seven years now and if I have lasted this long, I am sure the audience has accepted me. I have done a lot of challenging work in the past few years. Whether it is Ek Challis Ki Last local or Mithya or Singh is Kingg, or being a small part of a lovely film like Shootout at Lokhandwala, or even breaking out from a film like Julie and getting straight into a salwar kameez-clad role in Chup Chup Ke, I feel it's high time people sit up and take notice. I just feel, as far as the fraternity is concerned, I deserve a lot more," says Neha.
Instead of crying herself hoarse for not receiving her due as an actor, she takes it positively. "But the good thing is that from here the scale only goes up. If you think you have received your due, then it's a really scary place. Here, with a film, I get a pat on my back and it's really nice. It is challenging and I love it. I love being a part of the industry. I think I have carved a niche of my own and I am in this phase that makes me comfortable, happy. I enjoy the work I am doing. Work is coming my way. And you just have to choose the right thing. As long as you are in a position where you are choosing and not begging, it is a great place to be."

Despite a late rally, the Pitt women's basketball team couldn't overcome a woeful first-half offensive performance and lost Sunday to Syracuse, 58-47, at the Petersen Events Center.
Ultimately, the Panthers were doomed by a dismal 16 percent shooting percentage in the first half, after which they trailed 30-18. The Panthers outscored Syracuse 29-28 in the second half, but it wasn't enough.
Pitt cut the Orange's lead to 46-43 with less than three minutes left, but that was the closest the Panthers came to evening up the score.
Brianna Kiesel, who left Pitt's 109-66 loss to Notre Dame Thursday early with a knee injury, started the game and played all 40 minutes. She had 12 points and five rebounds.
Brittney Sykes led the Orange with 15 points.
Pitt returns to action next Saturday with a road game against No. 3 Duke.

These compression socks make my shins feel as if there is little to no pain at all! They are tight against my calves and shins, however, they are quite comfortable because it fits my calf size.
I really like this product because it not only covers my entire calf (majority of it, just an inch isn't cover at the top near my knee, but that's fine), but this compression sock lifts up the dull and View more -

Just wondering what happened to all the quotes at the beggining of the article, I feel they added to the article.
- They are gone. Or, at least most of them are. Way too many articles are getting flooded with quotes, and we don't really find it funny or entertaining. I'm completely sick of quotes myself. Sir Cs1987 UOTM. t. c 11:21, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
We? You don't speak for everyone. Also if you aren't in the mood for reading quotes just skip them, it isn't hard.
edit From Wikipedia's BJAODN
Mr. T (born Lil' Mr. T, May 21, unknown) is an World hero known for his roles as B.A. Baracus in the 1980s television series The A-Team as boxer "Clubber Lang" in the 1982 film Rocky IIIand a more urban version of Jesus.
edit Biography
T was born in the center of the universe, the first of one child; he grew up in the universe's star projects. He played football in space with aliens, studied martial arts, and won a scholarship to Fool Pitying University, Jupiter, but was partied out after a year. After that he went to a couple of small galactic implosions. After leaving the Death Star he was a Urban Jesus and a Ghetto Chuck Norris before trying out for the Grim Reaper. His professional fool lovin' career was finished, however, by a fatal hugging injury. After this, his aspirations were set higher - PITY ALL FOOLS AND TAKE NO JIBBA-JABBA[citation needed]. He began on his journey by making fools cry.
For about nine years he was a official fool pitier to the stars, pitying such well-known personalities as Steven Segal, Michael Jackson, and Vin Diesel. He charged around $300,000,000,000 a second and his business card famously read, "Next to Me, there is no better protector than God." He always boasts that he never lost a client, saying, "I got hurt worse growing up in the ghetto than working as a fool pitier."
In 1970 he changed his name by deed poll from "mister t" to "Mr. t" and then in 1980 to "Mr. T" so that people would have to fear him as "Mr." It was while reading National Geographic that Mr. T first saw the unusual hairstyle for which he is now famous, on an African Mandinka warrior. He decided that adopting the style was a powerful statement about his African origins.
During his AWSOME YEARS as a jibba-jabba bouncer, he would take jewelry from fools and beat them with it, then stole all of thier clothes and stuff. At one point, his gold chains, rings, and bracelets were worth about an ammount of money unmeasurable. It took him about one cuntury to put it on, and most nights he cleaned it in an ultrasonic cleaner although some nights he slept in it "to see how my ancestors, who were slaves, felt."
In 1986 Mr. ...YA...MR. T JUST LIKES TO PITY FOOLS...to enact ordinances making the removal of old growth trees illegal.
In 2005, Mr. T announced he would never wear his human skulls again saying, "No, T, you can never wear your skulls again. It's an insult to Chuck Norris." He came to this decision after seeing the effects of Hurricane Katrina on Chuck Norris and Vin Diesel's fight. Mr. T also donated a great deal of clothing and money to Norris/Diesel victims. He has been reported to be working on a new reality television show for TV Land, called I Pity the Fool, which will find the devout Christian assisting those in need.
Mr. T currently lives in the center of the universe, and is never single. He is a born again Mr. T-ian.
- I'm going to have to go ahead and second the motion that Mr. T is the center of all Creation (Einstien will back me up on this) and adjust Azathoth accordingly. Thank you for your ratification.`Jonas Planck 19:52, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
edit Random Loch Ness Monster Sighting
Erm... well, I saw a Loch Ness Monster at the bottom of the article today, and it told me to tell everyone on the talk page.
Should I think of myself as priveleged, to have seen such a stupid monster?
Cheese 21:07, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
Oh holy mother of the father of god's jesus friendly traveler! In the glacial probe! I saw it too!
edit Random Bigfoot sighting!
Cover your penises, they see it as a statement of dominance! -22.214.171.124 01:23, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
edit Is this not the best non-'chopped image in the whole place?
Prove me wrong. Mozard 04:51, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
edit Terribly tedious
An article about Mr. T has the potential to be hilarious. Unfortunately this one is not. It is insipid. Bland. And tedious. I would write one myself but someone would probably get angry and start throwing a hissy fit. Sorter908 21:38, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you for your suggestion! When you feel an article needs fixin', please feel obligated to make whatever changes you feel are needed, (even though they'll probably be reverted 5 seconds later). Uncyclopedia is a wiki, so almost anyone can edit almost any article by almost simply following the edit link almost at the top. You don't even need to log in in most cases! (Although there are some reasons why you might like to...) The Uncyclopedia Cabal encourages you to be italic. Don't worry too much about making honest mistakes—they're likely to be found and corrected quickly, and your 6 month ban will fly by faster than you think. If you're not sure how editing works, check out proper wiki formatting, or use the sandbox to try out your vandalizing skills. - P.M., WotM, & GUN, Sir Led Balloon (Tick Tock) (Contribs) 21:42, Aug 26

edit Plagiarism
Some anonymous coward seems to have plagiarized from Wikipedia. (The redlinks, especially Template:Pp-semi-blp, are a dead giveaway.) The last good revision is here. If I do not hear any objections in about 24 hours, I will revert to said revision. --Pentium5dot1 t~^_^~c 06:48, May 21, 2010 (UTC)
