About Fans
Fans are a smart option when you're looking to achieve a comfortable temperature without putting a chill in the air. Whether improving the air quality at your desk, in a room or in an entire house, Ace Hardware has several different floor and ceiling fan sizes and models to circulate the air and cool any space.
When talking about air circulation, traditional box fans often come to mind. And while they are typically the least expensive, box fans are somewhat limiting when it comes to directing air. For more control over the angle and range of air flow, pedestal fans allow users the ability to adjust their height and range of oscillation.
Connecting the indoors to the outdoors, window fans can function in one of two ways according to your needs. Reversible fan blades allow these units to expel warm air when spinning in one direction. Then, with a flip of the switch many units will spin their blades the other way to draw cool air in. Since these units fit directly into a window opening, they take up no floor space.
If floor space is a commodity, but leaving a window open isn't an option, tower fans are a logical solution. With a narrow, vertical design, tower fans can easily fit into the corner of any room. Built to oscillate or remain stationary, tower fans allow you to target your breeze at a specific location or expand it to cool a much larger area.
Fans are a great alternative to air conditioners if you're looking to save money on your energy bills or you're sensitive to blowing, cold air. Since there are so many options when shopping for a fan, visit your neighborhood Ace store for more advice or check out our guide to buying a fan.

New 'Predicktor' App :: Can It Use Men's Stats to Guess Penis Size?
Size queens everywhere may be downloading a new smartphone app that can allegedly predict a man's penis size, the Raw Story reports.
According to the website for the Predicktor, which was reportedly developed by a Toronto-based family physician, the app can guess the length of an erect penis by using stats like a man's height, orientation and finger length while cross-referencing the data with trends from scientific studies.
Though the app is meant to be a joke, Dr. Chris Culligan told the Raw Story that he hopes the Predicktor will help eliminate myths related to penis size, which will relieve men of the "penis-related insecurity, anxiety or dissatisfaction."
"It's not how long your pencil is, but how you write your name," he says, quoting his father. He went on to say that porn stars "are outliers" and that they are not average men and should not impact the way men feel about their organ. He said it's more common for men to be over six-feet and three-inches than have a seven-and-a-half-inch penis.
"I realized there's a lot of literature out there," he said. "But when I was looking at the actual studies I was sort of surprised about a couple of things, one was that there were a lot of studies and two, that they didn't actually agree with what most people thought."
He added that there has never been a published study that shows race is related to penis size.
But you may be wondering, just how the app works. The Predicktor asks for men to enter in his height, buttock size, age, shoe size, age, finger length, and sexual orientation. The user is then instructed to shake his phone up and down to find the results.
"While height alone and shoe size are not predictors of penis size, they, along with a man's buttock size and the ratio of a his index finger and ring finger length, are believed to be determined by achromosomal cluster called the Hox genes," the Raw Story writes. "The Hox genes play a role in penis size and possibly sexual orientation."
Culligan pointed out that studies have found gay men have longer, thicker penises than straight men. Some of that data was founded by Alfred Kinsey, who on average reported gay men's penises were a third of an inch longer.
"Gay pride just got a little prouder," Culligan added.

NOTES from the UNDERGROUND # 218 (& Poetry Dispatch) | September 27, 2012
Editor's Note: George Wamser is a full-time blue collar worker and a 'part-time' writer, with a true hunter's heart and mind, given the gift of the natural world that surround us. I first 'discovered' him about five years ago and invited him to submit a piece of writing for an anthology of unpublished writers I was putting together (OTHER VOICES, Works in Progress, Cross+Roads Press, 2007). George submitted a beautiful essay: "Tales from Good Medicine Lodge" wherein he says: "…the forest…the forest…has remained faithful all along, has remained my salvation, my healer, and has accepted my words of gratitude…Every time I returned to it, it is as if I have re-entered the echo of my own wonderful dream."
Part of his bio on the "Notes on Contributors" page also states: "….that he has no particular qualification to write anything for anybody, and that he is simply a blue collar worker, a printer by trade, who is extremely interested in nature, and human nature. He is keenly aware of the great environmental changes going on in the North Country over the last forty years, and is extremely concerned about how much of the resources will remain for future generations.
George lives in Oconto, Wisconsin with his Native American wife, where they built their own cabin, The Good Medicine Lodge, on Sunrise Lake 25 years ago.
Here in Wisconsin, the battle for wilderness preservation is fought every day. (Hunters of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but…?) Some folks find a reason to kill whatever moves in nature. Here is George's measured take on a current controversy of killing wolves. — Norbert Blei
Wrestling with Timber Wolves…
What is the myth… and what is the reality?
Which side of the line are YOU on? On the side of wilderness… or on the side of special interest groups that wish to micro-manage every single tiny bit of nature for its own selfish end? Because that's what it all boils down to here, with the proposed wolf hunt. We are talking a population of 850 animals in an environment that is OVER 2 MILLION ACRES…think about that population density of wolves and you get the picture. This has nothing to do with damage caused by wolves, or even competition with hunters for game, this is all about a "state of mind" and the ancient penchant certain human cultures have; the irresistible urge to mess with and try to arrogantly dominate all things in nature, wild and free, and nothing more. Nothing symbolizes wilderness more than the timber wolf, which makes him the logical target for the enormous human ego. There is nothing logical or rational about such a hunt, in fact, as anyone who studies, or tries to photograph timber wolves for less nefarious purposes will tell you, is that even finding a wolf for a photo is maddeningly difficult, even with bait! And may require months of patient stake outs in blinds with little guarantee of success; so good luck "hunters"! Ha! Sadly, the clever trappers may do better…
Am I worried about some livestock taken? Or a few hunting dogs killed by wolves? Nope. Why? Because that is the REAL law of true wilderness, that, you take the chances of such predation when you CHOOSE to live in, or run your pack of hunting dogs in a wilderness area; which operates on its own terms, in fact, such predation is the golden badge of success in preservation of wilderness. It is the sign that things are working as they should in a northern forest left alone to do its proper thing. ANY outdoor organization who is in favor of a wolf hunt has forgotten this fundamental ideal, that so many great defenders of the wild like Ed Abby and Aldo Leopold and Sigurd Olsen fought for, and whose philosophy I still adhere to.
IF there were HUGE numbers of wolves, like coyotes, running all over the place, moving into urban areas causing all sorts of conflicts, I would have no problem with a trapping season, eliminating the problem animals in hot areas, but this is not the case…bears exist in a widespread population of many thousands and are a much smarter and more effective predator on game animals and hunting dogs than the timber wolf, but we live with them, perhaps even underhunting them for their population density. Bears do not carry the same negative emotional perception as wolves do, therefore even though bears are many times more "competitive" with humans than wolves, with a much larger population of over 20,000, they are not seen as a similar "threat". Imagine a "hunting season" to reduce in number a population of 850 of anything…much less wolves in an area the size of all of northern Wisconsin…it is idiotic in its scope.
There may be a day when a wolf hunting season is needed, and I am NOT against it in principle; but not now. Not yet…
Wolves, like all predators, are beneficial in the ecological picture of the North Country. They kill and eat the sick and weak of the game animals, and may help eliminate deer ill with CWD, "processing" the diseased tissue through their bodies so other deer cannot access it. Mostly timber wolves are omnivorous, and eat anything that is available to them including certain plants, small mammals and even fish on occasion. Over 50% of their diet is made up of non-game animals. Predators of all types have an extremely positive effect in "balance" and these effects run through the entire ecosystem.
This beautiful predator-prey relationship, (add into this common diseases in canines such as mange) ancient way beyond historical time, is itself a natural control on the population of these animals as they are dependent upon one another…and yes, I have a history with timber wolves, and am biased towards them as a species. I worked for timber wolf recovery in Wisconsin for ten years in the late 80's and nineties; I have studied the scientific research and the myth and historical materials, and have observed them in the field in Minnesota, which was both beautiful and thrilling. Perhaps no animal on this planet, among a family of large predator fauna such as grizzlies, polar bears, tigers, snakes and a few others is more misunderstood, feared and reviled for no scientific reason whatsoever; it is always emotional. The scientists… are not in favor of a hunt at this time. This will sound extremely radical to many of you, but in this time of Earth's natural history, with the largest mass extinction of species since the Pliocene, experiencing a wolf up close and personal, observing, hearing their lonely call, and odd as it sounds, even in the rare instance of suffering some loss of livestock, pet or hunting dog to a wolf or another predator, is a privilege…and this spring as I heard my first single beautiful wolf call from my back door at Sunrise Lake, my joy was tempered by the knowledge that soon, people will likely be out to kill that fellow. Aldo Leopold, God's gift to Wisconsin and the source of modern Game Management, literally writing the first textbook on the subject, started out as a "wolf killer" with a strong belief in the control and elimination of predators, but as he was a good scientist, came to the conclusion over a decade of research, from the evidence, that he had been dead wrong, and that the science backed not only the value of all predators in the total ecological picture, but also of their utter necessity. Aldo changed…through the diminishment of his ignorance of the scientific facts, overcoming his emotions, cultural biases and an official government program to eliminate predators, to a much more factual, enlightened view that counterintuitive, and went against nearly everything he was taught to believe, but was; right.
As I thought about this subject my intellect and emotions ran all over the place…to the science of game management, to the beautiful sort of simmering anger and frustration someone like Edward Abby could cleverly express in defense of the wild and play it to the public like an irritating French Horn, to the artsy satire, ridiculous, like Tom Robbins portrayed in his "Wrestling with Woodpeckers" novel, and to the utter sacredness the traditional Native Americans hold the wolf: Muwase…in the highest possible regard, just as sincerely as Christians hold Jesus Christ. Nothing is sacred anymore, not even the concept of things being truly wild, which in my view may exhibit the highest possible expression of a creator. Wilderness in and of itself is sacred enough for me. While the powerful hunting organizations pay lip service to "wilderness" they back a wolf hunt and seem to have a secret need to tame anything truly wild; meanwhile lobbying for artificially high populations of game animals and fish to satisfy the sport recreational market, rather than the healthy holding capacity of the ecosystem.
It makes us all sad when we think of the wondrous progress the human race is capable of, and then, we contrast the steps forward with the "two steps back" rut that we seem to be stuck in over and over again, dampening the accomplishments we make. We never seem to learn, as over the last century the heart of hard lessons about ecology and game management evolved around "balance" and a holistic approach to habitats which benefitted the ecosystem as a whole, which is why the major predators were allowed back to begin with. Again and again, the public thinks we can do better, and expects more from public education, an enlightened media, hunting organizations, and the recreational industry to help show us the way…but I'll tell you, all of the above are capable of sending out bad, outdated, self centered messages as well as good ones, and they have both the money and political pressure to apply where needed to insure their agenda is on the table, regardless of whether it is good for the ecosystem or not. This is nothing new, as there are struggles over proper use of ATV's, mining, wetland use, clean water issues, logging, oil leases and endangered species that never seem to go away.
There are just as many scientists working diligently in labs all over America finding new and imaginative ways to exploit the environment, as there are working to find ways to protect and preserve it. There are more forces as work today trying to manipulate the environment, spending money and wresting for political control over resources now, than ever, with great media outlets telling only their side of the story, and we wonder why…we are so confused as to what is progress and what is destructive. If you watch the ads on TV from BP about the Gulf oil spill they make it seem like BP was the best thing that ever happened to the region! We try like hell to subdue nature, when in reality our greatest failure is in simply conquering ourselves. Isn't it sad, that some of our greatest scientific discoveries in ecology do not seem to carry clear instructions on how to use them ethically? Ecology is a science that does not clearly state the facts with a "good or bad" label on them, and the simple scientific "facts" the nuts and bolts of the reality, are left for interpretation by the public as a relative consequence of our economy, our population growth and so much more. And to the vast majority of the public, the life of a single wolf, an elk, a whole wetland ecosystem, or even the quality of my relationship with wolves here in the Nicolet National Forest and where it all fits in to the total picture; is completely meaningless.
IF some real meaning were endowed upon subjects regarding the environment, to the people, to the actions and potential emotion the public is capable of, if they can come to relate to the value of wild things like timber wolves, then and only then will the great power of human forces to protect and preserve be unleashed. We must learn to frankly admit that we as a people are failing now, in an era, where we are more concerned about the I-phone in our hand than the disappearance of whippoorwills, consuming the present at such a rate as to leave the future more impoverished for our grandchildren. Admitting ignorance here; opens the possibility for new directions in conservation, of new creative thinking, of a greater sense of ethics; altruism in regards to the climate, lands and waters, and ultimately even how we value our own existence as a member of an ever diminishing community within nature.
Yes, it is diminishing…
Finally, when Wisconsin was wild, it was one huge Garden of Eden underneath a canopy of massive white, yellow and red pines 200 feet tall, born before the landing of Columbus "the pinery" as it was called by the first settlers in the north, and wherever a chickadee might fly within this mighty virgin forest, along the sacred Wolf River, over the Oconto "river of many fish" over the hundreds of crystal clear lakes and deep green valleys, over the remnants of mountains once as big as the Rockies now ground down and glaciated to thousand foot hills, deep leafy deciduous glens and scrub oaks along the "Ouisconsin" limestone dells and Mississippi River through every type of ecosystem, micro climates such as along the Great Lakes or Green Bay, down from "the Spirit's Door" south to tall grass prairies, and coulee country of the south west, over the great central bog-land, wildlife and plant life prospered in lavish abundance…nature gave and gave and gave when the humans arrived, but no adequate compensation was ever offered for this incredible unfathomable blessing we have received over centuries, and now, when nature asks for a few free Timberwolves…how do we respond?
Shame on us…

Tysa J. Coleman's first book, "The Thoughts and Prayers of a Single Mother," resulted from her experiences in helping children, as well as being a single mother.
Tysa J. Coleman's first book, "The Thoughts and Prayers of a Single Mother," resulted from her experiences in helping children, as well as being a single mother.
Coleman, of Hannibal, has one son and is involved in raising her five nieces and nephews. She said her book is for "single mothers and anyone who feels like there have been setbacks in previous generations of their family, to help them overcome those obstacles.
"It has a lot of Scripture and but is basically my experiences," she continued, "what I learned from my trials and errors, and what I learned from previous generations, what my strengths were. ... You get past weaknesses. And the important thing is to recognize those things and try to change those things."
Her book is published by Tate Publishing and Enterprises and is available at bookstores nationwide, from the publisher at www.tatepublishing.com/bookstore, or at barnesandnoble.com or amazon.com.
In October, Coleman will have copies of her book for sale at her book signing. It will be at 2:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 12, at the Hannibal Free Public Library, where she is scheduled for a book talk and book signing.
Coleman, a Hannibal High School graduate, has been determined to write a book since she was very young. "It was always my goal, beginning in sixth grade," she said. "I knew I wanted to write a book."
Her first writing contest also was in sixth grade. "I was involved in a publishing contest, where the best book would be published," she reported.
"I didn't win, but at that point I knew I wanted to be a writer and said 'I am definitely going to write a book at some point in my life to be published.'"
Coleman, who attends Embassy Christian Center in Hannibal, explained, "I am a Christian. I was born again right before my 22nd birthday. That is the environment I grew up in and want my kids to be raised in."
Her career also focuses on children. Coleman has worked with abused children at the Child Advocacy Center in Hannibal since it opened nine years ago. "We interview children who have alleged physical abuse or sexual abuse, or have witnessed abuse, or come from drug-endangered homes."
The book publisher reported that the insight Coleman has gained during her career peaked her interest in the spiritual cycles that families follow and how to seek God to break negative strongholds.
In her book, Coleman thanked several friends for their help, including "my former coworker, Dolly Lewis; my friend, Eric Jones, a deputy for Marion County Sheriff's Department; and a friend, Aaron Petefish.
The book is dedicated to her family, especially her sister, Tamara McDonald of Hannibal, whom Coleman described as "my biggest cheerleader."
This is just her first book, Coleman reported. "I have a book in the process but I am still working and learning."
Coleman is very busy, between her career, raising her son and helping with her family, and also writing, but she does not mind, explaining, "sometimes I don't know if I'm coming or going, but as long as I am moving forward, that's what is important."

I have never posted here, but i came into some really good news for our Chiefs and i had to share it.
I doubt this is true, but i have it on really good sources that Mike Shanahan has been in contact with the Chiefs and is interested in becoming our new coach.
My sister is a really good friend with Mike's daughter Krystal, and because of that, Krystal told my sister about her dad's plans. He has said he plans to take a year off from coaching unless a team or opportunity really interested him, and our team interested him.
right now he is just in the beginning of talks with the team, but is intrigued because of the new stadium coming soon and the young talent on the team.
again this might be bogus, but it makes sense, and how great would it be to stick it to the donks twice a year?
|Thumbs Up

it makes perfect sense too. Mike loves to stick it to his former team, and i think he would jump at this opprtunity
Who is he contacting? Who is he talking to? As of right now, we have a head coach. We don't have a GM and our owner won't make head coaching decision without a GM and coincidentally likes the current HC.
I'm sorry, this just sounds bogus.
I will say this though. Shanahan doesn't get paid if he doesn't go out in search of new employment.
Seems to me Clark wants Herm to stay - or he'd be gone for the new gm to bring in his own staff...

i said it might be bogus. i know we still technically have a coach and it might not be true, but i have good sources and from what i hear Mike is in contact with our front office and is a strong possibility to be our coach if the money and terms are right.

We've been informed that a brand spanking new trailer for Duke Nukem Forever is airing tonight on FX during the season finale of Archer, at 10:00 PM, Eastern Standard Time. Of course, the version being shown on FX this evening will be of the "edited for television" variety.
Not to fear! The folks over at 2K Games have supplied us with an uncensored version of the 'Come Get Some!" trailer, complete with more heavy firepower, giblets, toilets, and topless strippers than a Las Vegas ATF convention. You can even check it out before the televised version even airs.
BOOM video 8870
In case you're curious why Duke is peddling his wares during the Archer finale, the press release offers the following explanation:
"There are only two other characters after Duke's own heart, the 'Most Interesting Man in the World' from those Dos Equis commercials and Archer, an international spy and lady killer. A man among men. A man who can do anything and anyone he wants, much like the king himself, Duke Nukem."
Following its most recent delay, Duke Nukem Forever is planned to release internationally on June 10, and in the U.S. on June 14 for PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3.

A Sterling man died early Wednesday following a collision near Brush involving the car in which he was riding, a semi-truck and a sport utility vehicle, the Colorado State Patrol has reported.
Merrill C. Giddings, 52, was taken to North Colorado Medical Center in Greeley after the 1:15 a.m. crash; he was pronounced dead at 5:16 a.m., Trooper Robert Tate said.
The driver of the car, Gale VanCura, 65, Sterling, was taken to Colorado Plains Medical Center in Fort Morgan. His condition was not available as of early Friday morning.
The driver of the semi, James Musselman, 61, Yomba Linda, Calif., and the driver of the SUV, Robert D. Audette, 20, Duluth, Minn., were not reported hurt.
VanCura was eastbound on I-76 near a railroad overpass a mile east of Brush when his car drifted off the right side of the road, hit a guardrail and went across the road, hitting a bridge rail, Tate said.
The semi then rear ended the car, and the SUV swerved in an effort to avoid the car but hit it, the trooper added.The semi stopped on the road shoulder and the car and the SUV in the left lane, Tate said.

Back in the Kitchen
I am back from my whirlwind of adventures in Italy! On my a little under 2 week vacation in Italy I visited Rome, The Vatican, Sorrento, Capri, Venice, Milan and Florence and I had a great time! In addition to having fun, I of course enjoyed a lot of good food! My favourite had to be the Italian style thin crust pizzas and I had more than a few of them while I was there. I also enjoyed a lot of good pastas and I gorged myself on gelato including a surprisingly tasty gorgonzola gelato.
For those that are interested you can see more of my adventures in Italy here:

For all of the Canadians reading this: I hope that you had a great Thanksgiving weekend! I have updated my sidebar to add some ideas for using those Thanksgiving leftovers. More to come on my Thanksgiving meal later on in the week.
Time to get cooking!

The weatherman suggests this may be the last nice weekend of the year in these parts. I hope he's wrong, but I will try and appreciate how pleasant it is in case he's right.
Also, a forum user requests that other users here consider restricting their signatures to the actual signature, rather than also appending some form of signoff to the body of each post, as it promotes formatting problems in nested quotes. Seems like a worthwhile request, so I thought I'd pass that along for everyone's consideration.

Former HUD Sec. Alphonso Jackson returns to dedicate historical collection
Returning to campus after serving as the nation's leader in the Department of Housing and Urban Development and seven years of serving on Truman State's Board of Governors, alumnus Alphonso Jackson brought with him a few mementos of his accomplishments.
Pictures, signatures, medallions and an old Truman State yearbook may not sound like monumental or special artifacts, but for Jackson they're reminders of a career in public service that began as a track athlete and political science student at then-Northeast Missouri State University and ended with four years on President George W. Bush's cabinet as secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The pictures include Jackson and luminaries including U.S. Presidents Bush and Bill Clinton; the signatures include those of the U.S. Supreme Court justices, in particular that of Associate Justice Clarence Thomas who issued the oath of office to Jackson in 2004, and the yearbook is from Jackson's time as a track star and student at what would become Truman State University.
"This university made an impact on my life and I hope when people see the exhibit, they know they too can have an impact on this country," Jackson said before a ceremony unveiling the special collection he donated to Truman State from his four years serving at the national level.
Jackson was in Kirksville Friday, along with his wife Marcia and one of his two daughters, Lesley, to mark the donation. He was heralded as a role model for all of Truman and portrayed as an example of what each and every Truman student could and should strive for in their lives, said Richard Coughlin, dean of libraries and museums at Truman.
"[Jackson] had many choices of where to deposit his gifts," Coughlin said during the unveiling ceremony. "We hope these serve as points of inspiration for our students. We want each of our students to be Alphonso Jacksons. We want them to find their passion and push it to the limit."
Jackson attended what would become Truman State and graduated with an undergraduate degree in political science in 1968 and a master's degree in education administration in 1969. He would go on to earn a juris doctorate from Washington University.
Politics was an early passion for Jackson, who started by helping run local political campaigns and races across Missouri including that of former-Sen. John Danforth out of St. Louis County.
Jackson was appointed as secretary of Housing and Urban Development under Bush from 2004 to 2008 after serving as deputy secretary of HUD from 2001 to 2004.
Jackson then went on to become director of Hampton University's Center for Public Policy and Leadership until 2012 and he currently serves as the vice chairman of mortgage banking for JP Morgan in New York City.
Jackson also served on Truman's Board of Governors from 1994 to 2001.
During his time on campus, Jackson spoke to several political science classes and implored them to participate in politics to help bring the focus on proper governance at the national level.
"No matter what party or candidate, get out and vote," he said of his message for the students. "Make sure your vote counts.
"A lot of sacrifices have been made, lots done to make sure you have the ability to participate."
Jackson went on to refer to sacrifices, whether it was the sacrifices made during the Civil Rights movement in the '60s, during which he took part in the Alabama march that became infamous as Bloody Sunday in 1965, to the sacrifices of his parents who worked hard to ensure all 12 children were provided for.
"I'm living the American dream because my father believed in the American dream," Jackson said. "The key is being educated and being smart."
Jackson, a Republican, lamented the lack of what he called "true governance" from Washington since his departure, but noted partisanship is nothing new in politics.
"We've had political rancor in our country for the last 20 years," he said. "Has it exacerbated, yes. We've become so polarized in this country. [...] I don't want to be involved anymore."
Despite throwing off politics in favor of the private sector in 2008 following allegations of improper contract awarding and politically-motivated decisions, Jackson said he believe the nation's lawmakers had missed sight of what he viewed as an all-important question.
"We need to ask, what is in the best interests of our country?" he said. He spoke in favor of reducing government assistance for people mentally- and physically-capable of earning a living wage, but said that the government has a responsibility to provide "safe and sanitary housing" especially for senior citizens who have been paying taxes all their lives.
"If you can't account for your money, you can't serve human beings very well," he said of his focus on HUD's financial operations. "We still need to address homelessness in a holistic way."
And the admitted Republican said he did not view a national crisis within the Republican Party, simply saying he believed the GOP needs to address immigration reform and "stay out of people's bedrooms."
"It's not important want people do in there," he said.
Republicans also need to focus on the issues, Jackson said, rather than preying on people's fears.
"I haven't met a Republican that doesn't care about women. I haven't met a republican that doesn't care about low-income people," he said. "I'm not disheartened at all [by support for Democrats]."
The Secretary Alphonson Jackson Collection and its about 75 pieces will be on exhibit until Feb. 22 after which it will be retained by the university and used for special collections and exhibits.

Monkfish (Anko, Ankimo) – U.S.
Monkfish grow slowly but mature quickly and are typically found in dense aggregations (large groups) on mud and sand bottoms along the Atlantic coast of the U.S. and Canada.
They were traditionally caught as bycatch and discarded until the 1980s when market demand first grew in Asia and Europe, and later in North America. Monkfish were considered "depleted" for many years but through good management their abundance is now at moderate levels.
The majority of Maonkfish are caught in gillnet and bottom-trawl fisheries. Bottom trawling can damage the seafloor and accidentally catches depleted groundfish, like Atlantic Cod. The gillnet fishery accidentally catches endangered Atlantic sturgeon.
This fish may have moderately high levels of mercury that could pose a health risk to adults and children. More info here about mercury in Monkfish. Check out our mercury in seafood section.

quote:Originally posted by Guest5052I am not so surprised at the terms of the contract, but a little surprised that it was with Chicago.I may be wrong, but I am not too sure too many people were saying Bickell is or isnt a second line guy, or how good he will be, but rather commenting on the value of his next contract, for better or worse. he had a very very good playoffs, but this seems like a pretty big gamble by Chicago in atight cap situation. Makes you wonder what Lecavalier will get. I like Bolland well enough, althgough the more I saw of hgim, the more i thought he was a third liner, albeit a very good one. I guess we'll see if he gets more of a second line role in Toronto, although regardless he's a good pick up for the leafs.
quote:Originally posted by Alex116So much for a discount! 4 year 16M deal! 4m per is not what i'd call a discount, and that's a pretty big penny for a "3rd liner". This guy is definitely getting some of D. Bolland's money!!!
quote:Originally posted by JOSHUACANADAI did reread the posts and a lot of them said he was top 6 legit possible. Still think he is the type of player Edmonton needs in the top 6.This being from you, Nuxfan Any team that Bickell goes to is going to give him a shot in a more offensive role, which means top-6. It will be up to him to prove that he can do it - perhaps he does turn into a legit top line guy, perhaps he doesn't.@valanche I could see Bickell looking good in the top 6 playing with Landeskog and O'reilly. Guest 5052 If you think that Bickell might be that guy, then you might not think that those top two lines are tough enough to play againts and would rather have him in there. Individually I agree, all are better players than Bickell, but he might be a better fit, he might be a litle cheaper which might allow for upgrades elsewhere, (3rd or 4th line or at D). Alex116 I don't think it will happen, but i think it'd be really interesting to see Bickell there in place of Hemsky."I now realise that the Toronto Maple Leafs, Canada's finest hockey team, is better than the Ottawa Senators - and always will be. PS - LOVE that Dion Phaneuf! "
quote:Originally posted by JOSHUACANADAIf he comes back from whatever was ailing him and his play has improved, all is forgiven, but if he continues like his play from last year, I expect him gone. He just seemed off. for whatever reason.
quote:Hey Bean's remember when you said no one was coming to my defense of Bickell being top 6. I stepped away for 2 days and thats what happened
quote:Originally posted by JOSHUACANADA Of the players you mentioned, you don't drop anybody, but I don't think either RNH or Hemsky will be an Oiler thru the offseason, which will leave an opening for an audition in the top 6.
quote:Originally posted by Beans15I don't disagree that the Oilers (among other teams, they are just the example I used) need bigger forwards. But big skilled fowards are not the same as big grinding forwards. I get that Bickell can score, but does he outscore or out produce Ales Hemsky?? Does a like of Yakupov/Gagner/Bickell produce more than Yakupov/Gagner/Hemsky?? I don't think so.
quote:Originally posted by Beans15$14-$16 million over 4 years?? Seriously, did you just type that??Wow. That must mean Ales Hemsky is worth around $15 million a season and Hall and Eberele will get $25 million a season.I Bickell is exactly what he is. Specifically to Joshua, no one is arguing is not a good hockey player. He might be the best 3rd line player in the NHL today. But that doesn't make him a legit 2nd line player.Back to the guest. Below are the likely top 2 lines in Edmonton next year. Who do you drop to the 3rd line for Bickell??Eberle - RNH - HallYakupov - Gagner - HemskyWho do you drop??Ottawa, the best coached team in the NHL, with MVP like players such as Chris Neil, will win the Cup in 2013!
quote:Originally posted by JOSHUACANADAWhen the post season starts he is 25% better stats wise than the regular season. He is a big game player.
quote:Originally posted by Alex116I've stayed out of it moreso because i really don't know what to expect from him. I'd lean towards Beans' side of the argument however, only because Bickell's in his late 20's and has a career best 17G / 37 Pts season. Apart from that year, he's never reached double digits in goals. That's why in my earlier post i said if i were a gm i'd prob set my limit, make him an offer, and prob not get him as someone will likely overpay! Can he be a second liner somewhere? Sure, never say never. But a betting man prob wouldn't wager on it.
quote:Originally posted by Beans15And sometimes the top line is Toews, Hossa, and Saad. Sometimes is Toews, Hossa, and Sharp. Sometimes it's even Toews, Hossa, and Kane. What's your point? Players get on hot streaks and they move up and down the roster. Does that prove anything at all?? Nope. It's proves nothing. Frankly, there is no chance that Bickell is a consistent 2nd line player anywhere. I get that in some cases we argue matters of opinion but in this case, you're simply wrong. Do you notice how few people are jumping on your bandwagon?? Trust me, every time someone has a chance to disagree with me on this site, they do. No one has supported your side on this at all. No one ever supports my side so that is no surprise. But every tiem someone can jump all over one of my opinions, they do. Not this time. Yours is not the popular opinion. Bickell is a fatastic 3rd line player. He might be one of the top guys at what he does. When I think of him I see guys like Boyle in NY and Shawn Thornton in Bos. Big an tough guys that can skate and hit. They are also guys that can fill in gaps in the line above them when needed. But that doesn't mean he is more than that. He is not a guy with 'score touch' he is a guy on a hot streak. He will get $2-$2.5 million if he stays with Chicago and $3-$3.5 million if he tests free agency. That's not even 2nd line money. Ottawa, the best coached team in the NHL, with MVP like players such as Chris Neil, will win the Cup in 2013!
quote:Originally posted by Beans15Are you insane?? Seriously dude, you're killing me.Curtis Glencross had 15 goals and 26 pts last season. His past 5 seasons are 15, 26, 24, 15, and 13 goals. He is 3 years older than Bickell and smallers but to say Bickell would be an upgrade on Glencross is completely absurd. I'm not even going to bother getting into the rest becuase it's a waste of time. He is a fantastic 3rd line player. But how does that make him have a 'scoring touch' and become a solid 2nd line player ahead of proven talent?? What a joke. I'm done wasting my time. You are arguing for the sake of arguing but bringing nothing valuable to the conversation. Ottawa, the best coached team in the NHL, with MVP like players such as Chris Neil, will win the Cup in 2013!
quote:Originally posted by Beans15Alex: I look at the players today and the players from their Cup team and it's no contest. I take the Cup winning roster everyday ending in Y. That was before you included Campbell on the back end and let's not forget Niemi was the goalie. Sorry friends, it's not even close. Joshua, I think you are arguing for the sake of arguing. Bickell's a left winger so let's do this positionally. I'll name the players likely to be the 1st and 2nd line LWer's on the teams you listed. Tell me who you replace with Bickell:Calgary - Hudler or GlencrossTampa - Malone or Pouliot (you might have a point with TB)Ottawa - Michalek or Greening (maybe Latendresse if healthy)Philly - Schenn, Hartnell, Gagne, Fedotenko (seriously, you said Philly??)Florida - Fleishman, Huberdeau, VersteegC'mon pal. I get you are trying to make your point but he is simply not a 2nd line player. He is a fantastic 3rd line guy who is a 'threat' to score. He does not have scoring touch. He has 40 goals in 220 reg season games and only one cracked more than 10 goals. In the playoffs 12 goals in 35 games (8 in this years playoffs).Ottawa, the best coached team in the NHL, with MVP like players such as Chris Neil, will win the Cup in 2013!
quote:Originally posted by Alex116I think he'll cash in for upwards of 3mil per, be it in Chi or elsewhere, with "elsewhere" possibly fetching more?
quote:Originally posted by Beans15Again, you say there are teams that might put Bickell in their top 6?? Name them. I'm interested to here who these team are.

Summer hair tips
By Amber Katz
Bright, labor-intensive makeup and gleaming, straight locks are fantastic for frosty months, but summer is all about low-key beauty. If humidity has you hiding your hair for fear of a frizzified coif, follow these four tips.
1. Embrace natural texture.
Humid weather is just not the time to go against nature -- it's a losing battle. When the mercury rises past 80, give your heat tools a rest and define your waves or curls with a dab of styling cream.
2. Protect hair from UV rays.
While putting sunscreen directly on your hair will shield your locks from the sun's damaging rays, it won't do much for the do's integrity. A better option: Many hair products contain a protective sun veil and add moisture and shine.
3. Water it down.
Before diving in that pool, wet down your hair with a spray bottle of plain water so it won't soak up so much damaging chlorine. For extra conditioning, before swimming, work in a product that contains keratin to maintain shine, moisture and elasticity.
4. Accessorize.
The weeks between Memorial Day and Labor Day are perfect for casual updos like volumized ponytails, sultry side braids and chic chignons. Hit up your nearest drugstore for a fabulous selection of cute hair ties and barrettes in shades that match your mane.

Anderson County Election Commission is in need of storage space for current voting machines — and new ones expected late this year.
Anderson County Election Commission is in need of storage space for current voting machines — and new ones expected late this year.
Election Commission administrator Mark Stephens asked for direction from the County Commission's Operations Committee earlier this week. The Election Commission has been looking at options, he said, and election commissioners would like to have a building constructed rather than rent a storage facility.
Operations Committee members suggested several other options and told Stephens to report back to the Committee in another 30 days.
"We have been sort of shifted around," said Stephens, as he detailed the various locations the Election Commission has used to store its voting machines, which currently number 85. The machines have been stored at the voting precinct locations, the Robert L. Jolley County Administration Building across from the Courthouse, downstairs in the Courthouse, at Fairview Elementary School, and at Emory Valley Center in Oak Ridge.
Most recently, the Election Commission made room for the Anderson County Health Department's Dental Clinic at the Dickens Building in Oak Ridge, formerly known as Daniel Arthur Rehabilitation Center. It's a building that also houses various Oak Ridge satellite offices for county government, along with Emory Valley Center classes.
Stephens said the county asked the Election Commission to share the space with the Dental Clinic but because of the sensitivity of some information the Election Commission stored there, it decided to give their total space at EVC to the Dental Clinic.
Stephens said renting about 1,500-square feet of space that is temperature controlled and is in close proximity to the Courthouse is expected to cost about $20,000 a year. The Election Commission, he said, would rather sink that money into a property that it will end up owning and have a building that will include the Election Commission offices and storage together.
He said property is available near the old Anderson County Community Action Commission building site, also known as the old jail site. It's near the Courthouse and next to the county schools' technology building.
Stephens said county Budget Director Chris Phillips told him money is still available from the county's previous bond issuance. However commissioners and Phillips pointed out at the meeting that the money is slated for contingency funds for the construction of the new jail pod and expansion, so that project will have to be completed before the available funds will be known.
Asked about the new voting machines, Stephens said the Election Commission doesn't have enough of the current machines, some of them are not functioning, and voters have never "gravitated" to the current machines and still have questions and problems every voting period.
He said most voters want a paper trail of their vote, too.
The new machines will be paid for by the state, he said, at a cost of about $400,000 to $500,000.
But Stephens said there will be no need for new machines if the storage space isn't available. Currently the machines and other items the Election Commission is storing are on the first floor of the Courthouse, and it's not really appropriate.
Commissioners offered several suggestions including other buildings for rent in the county, and swapping offices with the county planning and zoning office.

I just got off the phone with Sean @CPX
The museum will be in a 20x30 tent with grid walls and tables. A small area of the back of the booth will be a VIP area for Legends only so that they can get away from the crowd and stage in private. that leaves a 20x20 area for the museum and I guarantee it will be filled to the brim.
Not only that but I spoke with Josh at J4 paintball and they will be bringing a shooting booth that we will be putting next to the museum so that people can shoot a couple choice old school guns.
All of this is being provided to us and I cannot be more happy with the outpouring of support I am getting from the paintball world. This whole endeavor has become a very positive and nerve racking experience for me.
I have to thank alot of people for this and there will be a list when all this is said and done if I live through it
This... Is... Happening....
to make this easier on ALL OF US there is now a registration system in place to make sure the items that you bring for the museum get back to you in the most efficient way possible

Food Prep Equipment
- Commercial Restaurant Equipment
- Food Prep Equipment
- Corer Feature:Yes
- On Sale
When it comes to the old adage "Time is money," nothing is truer than a cook's time in a commercial kitchen. Enter food prep equipment—handy little tools that speed up one's task tremendously. When you're itching to slice your prep time in half look to this collection of slicers, dicers, grinders, mixers, blenders, food processors and more. With the right prep equipment tools by your side, it's like having an extra pair of hands to help, and who wouldn't like that? Shop our selection of food prep equipment from the industry's leading manufacturers like Globe, Nemco, Vollrath, Robot Coupe and much more!
Food Prep Equipment Benefits
The biggest benefit to investing in food prep equipment is time, because as we all know, there's never a problem of having too much time in the kitchen. Dicing vegetables for salsa or slicing chicken breast for salad can be time consuming—that is, of course, unless you have some equipment that does it for you (and with the goal of having consistent cuts each and every time, it probably does it better too).
Time savers are enough of a benefit to convince anyone to invest in food prep equipment. But if you're still on the fence about your purchase, consider this: consistency. When it comes to controlling your food costs, the first place to start is executing your menu consistently. Think about it, a little extra here or there adds up quickly, and makes it difficult to place your weekly produce and protein orders; order too little and you don't have enough for service, and order too much and you've got a lot of waste on your hands. Even the humble slicer can help you create equal, uniform slices of say, tomato, so you know exactly how many sandwiches you can top from one tomato. That kind of accuracy and forecasting is an easy way to help you reduce food waste, which in turn reduces your food waste.
You can also find specialty food prep equipment like commercial meat grinders, juicers and more. This equipment enables you to put a unique spin on your menu easily. Maybe you're interested in making your own house made sausage blends, or perhaps you want to offer juice blends (a popular favorite with guests right now). Guests will love your unique spin on classic dishes, and you'll find that most are willing to pay a premium for it too.
Finally what should perhaps be the biggest benefit of all is the added safety that prep equipment provides to your staff. Without the cumbersome task of doing prep by hand, there's less risk that one will actually cut themselves with a knife. And when staff is in a rush to get prep work done in time, it's easier to become more careless, increasing your risk for a staff member's unexpected emergency room visit.
Find Food Prep Equipment PartsIf your cuts aren't coming out as clean as you'd like, it might be time to replace the blades on your equipment. Lucky for you, Tundra Restaurant Supply stocks thousands of food prep equipment parts. From rubber feet and bumpers, to washers, blades, gaskets pusher blocks and more, you're sure to find the exact food prep equipment part you need. The best part about our restaurant parts? We stock parts from the industry's leading manufacturers like Nemco, Vollrath, Edlund, Dynamic, Globe, Robot Coupe, Hobart and much more.

LOWELL -- The License Commission voted unanimously Thursday to issue a 10-day alcoholic-beverage license suspension with five days served to the Redline Pub and Grill, 1018 Gorham St., for violations during a November bar fight in the pub's rear parking lot.
According to a letter from Police Superintendent Kenneth Lavallee to the License Commission, Daniel Sousa, who identified himself as the manager of the bar, was arrested after Officer Vincent Fernandez had to physically restrain him during a fight. Sousa shouted obscenities at officers and blocked the entrance to the establishment, which is also called The Train View Lounge.
According to the letter, a crowd had gathered while a large fight took place, resulting in the arrests of two alleged combatants, and several more fights broke out as Fernandez and another officer attempted to disperse the crowd while they waited for approximately 13 additional officers to restore order.
"It was a very serious incident and in my review, the way the manager of the establishment handled himself wasn't becoming," commission Chairman Brian Akashian said.
The Redline Pub and Grill had previously been issued a seven-day suspension, with two days served, after an April 12, 2012 incident where Lavallee alleged that John Resendes, manager of the establishment, failed to call police in a timely manner when a fight broke out.
Resendes and his attorney, John J. Hartigan, who were present for the ruling on the new suspension, declined to comment to The Sun afterward. The suspension is slated to be served starting Feb. 4.
In other business Thursday, the commission, which welcomed new member Cliff Krieger, postponed rulings on whether to issue liquor licenses to El Rincon, Senmonorom, Brazilian Tropic, Reservations and the Khmer Sports Club until its Jan. 31 meeting.

Well more split Penguin really – my right side is ready to take on the world this morning, but my left side just wants to go back to bed with a hot-water-bottle (or perhaps Enormous Cat on hot-water-bottle duty). This is not my usual pattern – usually I have, for instance, a bad knee and a worse knee, or a pair of bad shoulders, but this morning everything on the right is fine but my left hand, elbow, shoulder and knee are all stiff and painful!
I rather suspect that this has as much to do with fibromyalgia than it does with RA, because although the knee and elbow feel joint-related the shoulder is definitely muscular … well, when I say definitely it's actually hard to be sure I find, but it doesn't feel like the usual rheumatoid arthritis pain. I've had a few problems in the last few days with it, having foolishly swung round to grab something behind me on Saturday and then found myself curled up in a ball on my chair going, 'Ow, ooops, I really shouldn't have done that'.* Unbelievably I then did exactly the same thing twice on Sunday! It's such a dumb thing to do for someone who knows damn well they get problems in neck and shoulders! I blame the fact that they'd felt so good lately that I've been less aware of having to be careful … which I suppose is something I really can't complain about.
Oh well, I have a mountain of work to get through today thanks to the over-enthusiasm of a colleague on Thursday who, forgetting I was on my own for the first half of the week, may have bitten off more work than we can chew, so I'm going to have to let the right side rule!
*This is the expurgated version

Hope you get to feeling a little better and soon. My ra has always been one sided so to say but now it is everywhere so it is balanced out so to say. For years I had it primarily on my right side in every single joint. There was some left sided joints impacted but pretty much I was not the typical symmetrical ra patient. Try not to overdo it if you can.

COLDWATER � Former child care provider Laura Smith will serve no more than 30 days after pleading no contest to domestic violence in a plea bargain dismissing a felony child abuse charge.
Smith, 34, was charged and arrested for third degree child abuse after she allegedly spanked a three-year old boy Jan 3.
Defense attorney Fred Taylor III said under the agreement at the end of a one year probation the case would be dismissed, her record cleared, and the case file sealed.
The Department of Human Services (DHS) and Michigan State Police were called into investigate after a hand print was found on the boy�s buttocks. Another child at the home on Clarendon Road told investigators the boy was struck five times for not taking his nap.
Smith passed a polygraph in the case according to Taylor. He pointed out that DHS already took administrative action to revoke her day care license.
Branch County District Judge Brent Weigle ordered no unsupervised contact with unrelated children or the victim. The Judge said he would consider whether to impose any jail time or to allow the deferred sentence when Smith comes back August 12 following a presentence investigation.
Charges reduced in abuse case

One of the hot topics amongst this week's IGHR participants is certification. This comes up even in casual conversation, and because most of the genealogists here have a certain level of osity toward the subject, I doubt many realize how frequently it's mentioned.
Tuesday night, Dr. Thomas W. Jones and Elissa Scalise Powell moderated a discussion about certification through the Board for Certification of Genealogists. This particular session deviated a little from the usual more formal format in that certified genealogists who were in the audience were invited to share their reasons for seeking certification. This was followed by a short conversation by Michael Hait and Harold Henderson on how not to submit an application for certification.
Afterwards, I cornered Elissa to ask her some nagging questions I had about the case study and KDP (Kinship Determination Project) portions of the certification portfolio. We were shortly joined by another certified genealogist, Jerry Smith. One thing led to another and we began discussing issues, not just research related, but concerns Elissa and I both have about women, self-confidence (or the lack thereof), and empowerment, for example. You know how these things go. Conversations devolve when they flow naturally. Part of that devolution from certification to women's issues was sparked by something Elissa said in her remarks as a moderator of the session, that we always place the bar of excellence (that is, the standard we're trying to reach) above our heads. No matter how hard we work or how much we learn, that bar is never reached because we always keep it above our heads rather than realizing that eventually our work will surpass those standards.
Elissa was using this as an argument for researchers to not wait to start the clock (meaning, formally begin the certification process). For me, that argument struck fairly deeply, and I won't go into all the reasons why; part of that was covered in our conversation about women. But one thing I will share is what I told her about my reasons for seeking certification, that when I first learned there were other academically oriented genealogists out there, that there were standards and journals and institutes like "college for genealogists," I determined that I wanted to be the best of the best. I wanted to emulate researchers I saw (and still see) as stars in the field, including Elissa herself (which I think made her blush). Since many of those genealogists are certified, then that's what I felt I needed to do to become one of the best in the field.
Certification is a goal I've been working on for several years now. At the beginning of this year, I decided to at least begin picking out appropriate projects and conducting the research, or finishing it up as the case may be. Initially, I hoped to finish the entire certification process, including submission and, I hoped, approval, by the end of 2013, just in time to register for IGHR 2014's Course 4: Advanced Methodology and Evidence Analysis, co-ordinated by Elizabeth Shown Mills.
Quite frankly, I've been dithering all year. The case study I initially chose turned out to be inappropriate for this particular purpose, at least in my mind. So I've been searching for another project. The KDP I first chose went the same way: I'd rather use it for something else because I have a different focus in mind than the one I would have to take to fulfill the KDP requirements. What to do, what to do…
Part of the problem isn't even finding appropriate research projects. It's more a question of mental readiness. Am I really ready to take on the various projects of this scope, requiring this much intense research, that I have to finish in just one short year amidst all the other chaos of my life? Can I even afford mentally, financially, or as a parent to focus in that manner on a process that is so consuming?
And all the while I'm thinking this, I'm also thinking: Can I afford not to start the certification process now? Will my growth as a researcher be stunted because I'm not going through this process at this exact time?
It's something I need to ponder a while. I'm very tempted to go ahead and "start the clock," and have been encouraged to do so by Elissa and Michael in separate conversations, in part because they both feel that I'm ready, that my skills are good enough to get me through certification, or very close to being so.
But am I really ready? I don't have an answer, which is, in and of itself, an answer. The skills might be there (or close) but the mental readiness is not…I don't think. And certainly, my time is already at a premium as it is. I would have to rearrange my entire schedule for the next twelve to eighteen months. Not as much of a problem as I'm making it out to be in my mind, but it would delay a couple of major projects, with possible financial consequences.
The fact is that I'm going to do this sooner or later. Whether I make it to actual certification or not is a whole nother kettle of fish, but sooner or later I will apply. Being a Watson and, therefore, a procrastinator, maybe I just need to give myself a good kick, apply for certification so I'll have that fixed deadline (something Judy Russell swears by), and give it all I've got. Something I'll definitely consider.


text: Click here for the latest MLB Player News, and follow @Nate_Grimm and @Rotoworld_BB on Twitter while you're at it.Within the span of a few hours on Thursday night, two prominent outfielders came up holding their right hamstrings. They left their owners holding their breath as well.Both injuries happened on relatively nondescript plays. Going first-to-third on an infield ground ball, Jason Heyward slid awkwardly into third base and stayed on the ground, grabbing his right leg in pain. The 23-year-old left the game immediately but walked off without assistance.A short while later, Matt Holliday was running out a routine ground ball when he pulled up short of first base. It wasn't a particularly close play and Holliday wasn't running at full speed, making the injury even stranger. Like Heyward, Holliday was able to walk off under his own power.The diagnoses for both players are similar. Heyward said after the game that he thinks he can avoid a trip to the disabled list, saying the hamstring was mainly sore and not necessarily pulled.Holliday echoed those sentiments after the Cardinals game."It just kind of grabbed me a little bit," Holliday told reporters. "We'll see how it feels tomorrow."While both players will likely remain active for their teams, with the upcoming All-Star break there's a good chance both are used sparingly by their respective teams this weekend. It wouldn't be surprising if both sat out the remaining three games before the break, possibly being used only in late-game pinch-hit situations. Owners should keep an eye on the players' statuses, but it would probably be a good idea to bench both until after the break.Short StoriesWhile a couple outfielders look to be sidelined, two big-name shortstops who had missed significant time returned to the field on Thursday.Derek Jeter made his 2013 Yankees debut Thursday afternoon at Yankee Stadium after missing much of the first half with a broken ankle, going 1-for-4 with an infield single, a run scored and an RBI. Troy Tulowitzki, who hadn't played since June 13 with a broken rib, had a rougher go of it, going 0-for-4 with three strikeouts and committing a throwing error in the field.A twist came after Jeter was pulled for a pinch-hitter -- he was the team's DH, so it wasn't for defensive purposes -- in the eighth inning of the game. Jeter said he felt his right quadriceps tighten up while going first-to-third in the first inning but played through it before being removed. The 39-year-old will undergo an MRI on Friday morning to ensure there's nothing more than meets the eye with the injury.Jeter brushed it off after the game, but Yankees manager Joe Girardi, who has seen more than one of his star players go down with significant injuries this year, expressed a tad more concern."It's kind of what we've went through this year," Girardi told USA Today. "Hopefully it's nothing."Assuming it's just that, both players should be activated and inserted into fantasy lineups immediately. It may take a day or two to knock the rust off, but both should be back in the swing of things in no time.SnakebitA team thought to have an excess of pitching in March is suddenly bereft of healthy arms of late.The Diamondbacks entered the season with a rotation of Ian Kennedy, Trevor Cahill, Brandon McCarthy, Patrick Corbin and Wade Miley, with Daniel Hudson expected back by midseason and talented young arms Tyler Skaggs and Randall Delgado on the outside looking in.Fast forward to present day, where McCarthy is still sidelined with a shoulder injury, Hudson has had a second Tommy John surgery and Cahill, it came out Thursday, may not rejoin the rotation until August at the earliest.Cahill tweaked his shoulder while playing catch last week, and the setback has put his timetable for a return up in the air. The right-hander has since resumed playing catch but currently has no schedule for a rehab assignment.Cahill's setback coupled with McCarthy's rehab -- McCarthy is throwing live batting practice but still hasn't been cleared for a rehab assignment -- has left the Diamondbacks looking for viable fill-in options to get them through the next few weeks.Enter the young guns. Delgado has been part of the rotation since June 18, compiling a 3.82 ERA and 28/4 K/BB ratio in 33 total innings with the club. Skaggs, meanwhile, has been used on a spot-start basis, going 2-1 with a 4.03 ERA in 29 innings. Skaggs was returned to the minors after Wednesday's start, but he should be back up to fill the fifth starter role after the break.There's no telling how long either will remain in the rotation going forward -- rumors are already spreading that the Diamondbacks are in the market for some help on the trade market -- but both have the talent and (current) opportunity to be useful fantasy contributors in mixed leagues. Given the choice between the two, Delgado has earned a slight edge with his performance this season. But neither is a bad option.National League Quick Hits: Matt Kemp (shoulder) won't swing a bat for 5-to-7 days. It's hard to see him coming off the disabled list on July 21 when first eligible now ... Ryan Braun was placed on the bereavement list. He'll likely miss the rest of the first half ... Yasiel Puig left Thursday's game against the Rockies after seven innings with an aggravated left hip ... Along with Tulowitzki, Dexter Fowler was activated by the Rockies on Thursday. He batted leadoff and went 0-for-4 in his return ... Diamondbacks GM Kevin Towers said the team doesn't have a designated closer. Brad Ziegler was called on to save the 5-3 win on Thursday ... Evan Gattis (oblique) will start a rehab assignment with Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday ... Yonder Alonso (hand) is expected to be activated from the DL on Friday. He hasn't played since May 31 ... Clayton Richard needs season-ending surgery to shave down part of his left clavicle. He should be ready to go by spring training of next year ... Jordan Zimmermann has been dealing with a sore neck for a few weeks. The right-hander may ask not to pitch in the All-Star game to give the neck a few extra days of rest ...Giants manager Bruce Bochy reaffirmed on Thursday that Matt Cain is healthy. Some outside the club were questioning his health after his second straight poor outing Wednesday ... Marco Estrada (hamstring) had his live batting practice session on Saturday cancelled. Estrada isn't too concerned with the setback, but he'll likely be out a few more weeks as a result ... Freddie Freeman celebrated his All-Star fan selection by going 3-for-4 with four RBI. No word on whether any postgame celebrations took place.American League Quick Hits: Melky Cabrera (knee) will begin a rehab assignment Friday with Triple-A Buffalo. He should be activated immediately after the break ... Chris Davis hit his 34th home run of the season. He's already surpassed his career-highs for homers and RBI -- and we're not to the All-Star break yet ... Rick Porcello's suspension was dropped from six games to five. With some maneuvering after the break, the suspension won't cause him to miss a start ... Josh Lindblom was optioned to Triple-A Round Rock after another poor start Wednesday. He had a 5.46 ERA before the demotion ... Chris Dickerson received a cortisone shot in his left shoulder. He said he got the shot in hopes of playing before the break, but the Orioles may still play it safe with him this weekend ... Jeff Baker (thumb) took batting practice on Thursday. He could start a rehab assignment as early as Monday ... Craig Gentry (hand) will begin a rehab assignment on Sunday with Double-A Frisco ... Steve Delabar won the final roster spot for the American League in the All-Star Game ... Erasmo Ramirez got blown up in his first start of 2013, giving up seven runs over 4 1/3 innings against the Red Sox. The 23-year-old should be better going forward.
