With Band Of Gypsys riding high in the Billboard US album chart, Reprise Records issued the single "Stepping Stone" coupled with "Izabella". Apart from "All Along The Watchtower", Jimi had little success at US Top 40 radio. "Stepping Stone" and "Izabella" proved to be no exception. Moreover, Capitol Records complained that Reprise was trying to distract consumers from Band Of Gypsys. As the delivery of that album had resolved a bitter lawsuit between Hendrix, Capitol, and Reprise, the single quickly faded from view and has since become a prized collector's item. For those unable to track down an original vinyl copy, both versions can now be heard as part of the Voodoo Child: The Jimi Hendrix Collection issued in May 2001.

As Carrie said, the war on drugs is not the primary campaign issue in Mexico. But it has been at the heart of outgoing President Felipe Calderon's agenda. The bloodiest battlefield in that war has been Ciudad Juarez, which is right across the border from El Paso, Texas. And the presidential election has not put residents there in a hopeful mood.
As Monica Ortiz Uribe, of member station KJZZ reports, many in Juarez have little faith that a new president can bring peace.
MONICA ORTIZ URIBE, BYLINE: At a city park just beyond the border crossing, a group of college students has just been robbed.
UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN: (Spanish spoken)
URIBE: We stopped to buy food, when someone broke into our car, says a girl wearing electric blue eye shadow. She's too nervous to give her name. The thieves made off with an iPod, a passport and some cash.
ABEL LOPEZ: (Spanish spoken)
URIBE: We won't call the cops, says Abel Lopez. He's a lanky 23-year-old who styles his hair like an ice cream swirl. Crimes often go unsolved in Juarez, and Lopez says he doesn't trust the police. He feels the same about politicians.
LOPEZ: (Spanish spoken)
URIBE: Honestly, I've never voted, he says. What for? Nothing changes.
UNIDENTIFIED MAN: (Spanish spoken)
URIBE: The death count in Juarez is recited each day on a local AM station. Two years ago, this city averaged eight murders a day. That's down to two or three. After a grueling period of daylight shootings, mass murder and rampant kidnapping, people here ache for a normal life. But many doubt this election will suddenly bring peace and prosperity.
URIBE: At a small shop on the outskirts of town, Laura Aguilar watches a women paste peach tissue paper to a pinata she's about to take home. Her biggest concern right now is the economy.
LAURA AGUILAR: (Spanish spoken)
URIBE: Right now, there are no jobs, she says, and those who have one are poorly paid. Two of her children work at factory jobs, each making less than $40 a week. She doesn't expect the next president will change things.
AGUILAR: (Spanish spoken)
URIBE: One of the candidates can't even say how much a kilo of tortillas costs, she complains.
The owner of the pinata shop is Dina Moran. Her son was one of thousands murdered in the ongoing drug violence. He was a cop, she says, one who wanted things done right.
DINA MORAN: (Spanish spoken)
URIBE: Moran refuses to vote. What's the point, she says - the good guys end up in the cemetery and the ones who commit the crimes have the power.
Across the border in El Paso, Texas, Eduardo Diaz is one of thousands of Mexicans who calls this American city home. He's a chemical engineer who supports Mexico's fight against organized crime.
EDUARDO DIAZ: For many years in Mexico these people were allowed to do anything they wanted to do, as long as they provided funds for people in power. And right now, we're paying the consequences of that.
URIBE: Diaz maintains strong business and family ties to Mexico. He believes Mexicans must continue to fight hard for their democracy. Today, he and his family will make the trip into Juarez for one reason: to vote.

Alexi Natchev
The Art of Alexi Natchev
Delaware Art Museum
March 2 – August 4, 2013
The Delaware Art Museum is pleased to present Imagined Places: The Art of Alexi Natchev, on view March 2 – August 4, 2013. This exhibition showcases the work of celebrated illustrator and Delaware College of Art and Design professor Alexi Natchev, whose illustrations conjure up an imaginary world of playful creatures, fairy-tale places, folktales, and more. Imagined Places features over 60 works by Natchev, including paintings and prints representing the range of his career as an artist and illustrator.
Alexi Natchev was born and educated in Sofia, Bulgaria. Since moving to the United States in 1990, he has illustrated 17 children's books, collaborating with major authors and publishers. His work has been shown in many international exhibitions and he has received a number of national and international awards, including the 2013 Sydney Taylor Book Award for Younger Readers for his evocative hand-colored relief prints for The Elijah Door─A Passover Tale. Natchev was also the 2001 recipient of the prestigious Artist Fellowship from the State of Delaware and is currently the Illustration Area Coordinator at Delaware College of Art and Design in Wilmington, Delaware.
As an artist intent on capturing details of place and costume, Natchev often researches the art and literature of a region for his illustrations, creating a sensitive balance between fantasy and believability. This can be seen in the bright and fanciful watercolor paintings for popular children's stories such as Brian Jacques' The Tale of Urso Brunov: Little Father of All Bears (2003) and Urso Brunov and the White Emperor (2008).
In Natchev's prints, allusions to historical events and figures often become mysterious images, suggestive of power, conflict, and romance. Depictions of leaders from Bulgaria's independence movement, such as Vasil Levski and Georgi Danchov, reveal a deep connection to his Bulgarian roots.
"Alexi Natchev is deservedly celebrated for his colorful and imaginative children's books and is an accomplished printmaker with impressive fluency in various techniques," says Mary F. Holahan, Curator of Illustration. "We are thrilled to be able to display the whimsical and sometimes enigmatic illustrations of such a distinguished artist of our region."

Making An Offer
You've found that perfect house! What do you do now? Your Sales Representative will prepare an Agreement of Purchase and Sale, including any custom clauses you may require. Most Buyers will make an offer provided certain conditions are met. These may include:
Even if you have been pre-approved for a mortgage, the property will require an appraisal to assure the lender that the price you are paying falls within accepted market value. Once your financing has been approved you are required to provide written notice to the Seller in the form of a waiver of amendment before the expiry of the condition.
This condition applies only to the purchase of a condominium. It allows your solicitor to review the condominium's documents to ensure the corporation is financially sound and meets all the requirements of the Condominium Act. Under the Condominium Act, the property management company has up to 10 days to prepare the Status Certificate and can charge a maximum of $100 for the service.
This condition provides an opportunity to have the property inspected by a qualified person who will look for any major defects in the building prior to your entering into a firm agreement. Many Buyers choose to have a termite inspection done as well.
As of June 23, 2008 for every Purchase and Sale in real estate, the Brokerage must obtain an Individual Client Information Record. This record sets out the Buyer/Seller name and address, and the nature of your principal business/occupation and date of birth. You will need to show a piece of identification that you confirm your identity. For example birth certificate, driver's license, passport. For more information go to www.fintrac.ca
For the offer to be valid, it must contain a number of specific dates and times. Your initial offer will be valid for a specific period dates and times. Your initial offer will be valid for a specific period of time, usually until midnight of the same day or the following day, after which the offer is deemed to be dead. This time frame is called the irrevocable period.
This is the date set for the transfer of ownership of the property negotiated between you and the Seller and can also be referred to as the closing date.
This is the period in which your lawyer must determine if there are any problems with the title of the property and is usually set 30 days prior to the completion date.
A deposit cheque must accompany the offer to the Seller. The amount of the deposit will vary depending upon the value of the property but usually represents between 5% and 10% of the purchase price.
Fixtures are any items permanently attached to the property. For example, a bathtub, sink or toilet permanently plumbed in would be a fixture. Technically, anything nailed to the building is a fixture while items screwed in (because screws can be removed) are chattels. This is often an area of contention when buying a resale home. So be aware of this distinction and, if in doubt, put it in the offer.
Chattels, unlike fixtures, are not deemed to be part of the property and must be specified in the offer if you want them included in the sale. The following are some items you may wish to include in the offer: area rugs, ceiling fans, chandeliers and other light fixtures, draperies, wood burning stoves and accessories, microwave ovens, refrigerators/ freezers, stoves and ovens, washers and dryers, window air conditioners, garage door openers, storage sheds, swing sets and other playground equipment, garden furniture, barbecues, central vacuums and equipment.

Dog Poet Transmitting.......
May your noses always be cold and wet.
There are high watermarks that occur, along the way to Samarra, on the road to Damascus. Each of these leaves a signature stain on the wall of time. Sometimes they are ominous and sometimes they are refreshing. Do they mean anything at all? Does anything mean anything at all? I ask that question because appearances seem to indicate that is the case in the heartlands of The West, which more accurately reflect the asslands of sedentary, passive, observer-ville. We do not mean to be insulting but, what do you do when that is what conditions indicate with large segments of the public?
Anyone, at any time, can step out into Anywhere-Land and ask Joe Six Pack and Janet Eye-Shadow what they think about any controversial affair, in the more or recent past and they will give you some version of not seeing enough about it on TV to have their informed opinion branded into their cerebrum. These are the people who, when they were part of a telemarketing, opinion sampling on whether or not they would be interested in having an 'all commercials' station added to their cable lineup, thought it was a good idea and said they would definitely watch.
The hard numbers, dealing with real change, as seen by those who do not have their posterior where the rest of us have a cranium, indicate that when people will not change, through any amount of informational impact on their cranium (located who knows where) that another impact is inevitably required for their posterior. When The Cosmos demands transformation and change, there are no human, alternative choices. The Cosmos is not a brute about it. The Cosmos notes that you are sleeping and have been deeply sleeping, so The Cosmos gently shakes your shoulder and says, "Arise, arise, awakening is on your doorstep". Mr Apocalypse is by his side, twirling his walking stick and whistling, "Putting on the Ritz". Some few will awaken at that time and be in the vanguard of irresistible change. Most will not awaken, so The Cosmos returns to the bedside and shakes them in a noticeably harder fashion, saying, "Hey (knock! Knock!), is there anybody in there? Hello, wake up! Wake up"! Some larger amount of the public will awaken at this point and some portion of that public will go back to sleep again. They will see the absurdity of certain events, foisted on them by psychopaths, who actually carried out the events. It will frighten them; that responsibility that comes with awareness ...and they will seek to return to being unaware. At this point, The Cosmic will pick up a two by four and smack the remaining sleepers and serial sleepers upside the head and say in a really loud voice, "Wake the fuck up! Wake the fuck up"! He'll be alternating with Mr. Apocalypse and his walking stick. Lady Nature will be shaking the bed. There will be alternating drum sticks, doing a hopped up Ginger Baker, all about the head and shoulders of the sleepers. Lady Nature and the backup singers will be wailing by the bedside.
Yes, there are pockets of awareness and awareness walkers, moving through the environment, firing out of the duck blinds and generally making noise by the day. It's heartening to witness but... juxtaposed beside the mountains of denseness and the deserts of stupidity, it looks a lot like the vanishing corner store, in comparison to Mall of America. This is why hardship and mass departures, presently looks like what's for dinner. I wish with all of my heart that these measures were not necessary. It's simple math. It's a matter of badly programmed GPS's. If you think you are going to one place but the car is actually going to another, where are you going to wind up? The answer to that, is as simple as can be, so the problem is not one of comprehension. It's not a matter of not getting it. It is a matter of not wanting to get it. How did you wind up in a war zone in Afghanistan? How did you wind up drunk and naked on Canal Street? How did you wind up anywhere that you wound up, anytime you wound up anywhere? You walked. You drove. You flew. You sailed or you railed. You got there by going there. This is the hard math of it. This is the inarguable logic of circumstances, converging with directional intent. People can argue against this with all of the denial and ignorance at their command but they cannot alter it. It is what it is and you had better meet it at the marrow, before it cracks your bones to get at your marrow.
Youth is a Mecca of optimism. Anything is possible, until one is confronted with the cost of anything and everything under consideration, "Oh, there must be an easier way". Youth soon comes to terms with altruism and idealism and makes whatever concessions and compromises are necessary. The treadmill beckons and you get a nice big TV screen, in front of it, that simulates what is actually taking place, while bearing no resemblance to what is taking place, whatsoever. You stop growing in and start growing out. Vertical is replaced by horizontal and that just lines the pockets of all the death dealing corporations, who don't care one way or another what happens to you. The same collection of vampires and werewolves own the toxic food industries AND the medical industry. The point of wonder pharmaceuticals is not to heal anything. Symptom suppression is as close as they get to anything like that. The point of these pharmaceuticals is to put you into a condition where you need more pharmaceuticals. The best you can hope for is that they won't kill you outright and that there is, hopefully, a more extended time line to that result.
If you don't do something to change what happens to you, then things get done that change what happens to you. If you don't have a course, or a direction set, then a course and direction will be set for you. Sharks like tuna and dolphins like tuna but they both like them for diametrically different reasons. ♫Tuna you're mine, completely♫ Tuna aren't very bright but they definitely taste good. That's right Charley, the boys who own the cannery are not looking for tuna with good taste. They are looking for tuna that tastes good. Dolphins can swim very fast. It's been reported that Dolphins swim with tuna and protect them from sharks. Dolphins have hard noses and should they broadside a shark it can be curtains for the shark. Sharks, being prehistoric, cannot stop swimming or they will die. Dolphins also protect humans on occasion.
The dolphins of the sea are, no doubt, loved by the tuna. The human dolphins are not often loved by the human tuna. This is because the human sharks have a great deal more influence on land than in the sea. Would these be land sharks? This is a telling metaphor or two. The land tuna look up to the land sharks even though they are consumed no less upon the land than they are in the sea. However, tunas on land, like to live in Rainbow World. Rainbow World is no less real to them, even though it is a fiction. Perhaps they believe it will not hurt so much if they have their heads in Rainbow World. They consider themselves all American, when they take their children to McDonald's to eat and frolic in the play area, just like those parties at Chuck E. Cheese. They think they are being enlightened, when they celebrate Heather having two mommies, when the intended end result, is an end to procreation as we know it and you can be sure that Monsanto and all of the rest are deep into the research for that. Absolute control is best initiated in the womb. Political Correctness in not about making everyone equal. It is about making everyone equally dumb. The difficulty in addressing the subject is that one gets painted as intolerant when it has nothing to do with that. It has to do with the machinations taking place behind the projected template. The same thing is true when considering the sharks and the tuna and the dolphins. A casual glance can cause the mind to make the assumption than any one of them is one of the others. This is especially true of sharks and dolphins, where the only main telling point is the tail fin, should the bottlenose not be visible. So land sharks, being what they are, consider it smart tactics to hide among the human tuna and pose as dolphins.
Go to the old folks homes and study the generally inevitable result of life, when it has been permitted to continue to that point, given that accident or something terminal has not already claimed them. Study these people. You're headed there, unless for some reason you retain your wits, or have good relatives. The contemporary conditions of life have made respect for and caring for your elders an unpleasant waste of time. Where is the logic in the indifference and mistreatment of those who are examples of where you will be? Not much makes sense, seen via time lapse photography.
Diet Coke rots your insides. The majority of these processed poisons are incrementally lethal but... so what? You're not going to tell me what to eat or what to do. That's the shark's job.

For parents of children with weight problems, it can be a confusing situation. Should you restrict their food or just leave well enough alone and hope they grow out of it? The key is to help your children adopt healthful habits that will stay with them through life.
A Growing Problem
Childhood weight problems often carry over into adulthood, and overweight adults are at greater risk for chronic diseases, such as diabetes and heart disease. Worse, conditions once associated only with adults, such as type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome (a major risk factor for stroke and heart attacks), are now increasingly being found in some children and adolescents.
Contributing Factors
Several factors may be to blame. In rare cases, a medical problem may be the cause. If you suspect your child has a weight problem or is developing one, take him to the doctor for a full exam.
The most common factors in childhood obesity may include the following:
Lack of Exercise
Experts blame too much television, computer time, and video games, which take away time from doing physical activity.
Consuming Too Many Calories
Today's time-pressed families are relying more and more on convenience foods and fast foods, many of which are high in calories, especially from carbohydrates. High fat intake from burgers, fries, and pizza plays a role, but many kids are also gulping down hundreds of calories a day in the form of sodas, sports drinks, and sweetened juice drinks.
Overly-large serving portions at both restaurants and at home have also likely played a role. Additionally, many schools may not provide healthy lunches.
Family History/Genetics
Research has shown that children with overweight parents and/or siblings are more likely to be overweight themselves. While genes may play a role, it may also be that parents pass on unhealthful behaviors and habits to their children.
Dos and Don'ts for Parents
The best advice for parents is to help your kids eat healthfully, be active, and build self-esteem.
Here are some dos and don'ts to help you:
- Be supportive. Kids need to know that you love and respect them unconditionally and that their weight does not define their self-worth. Kids who feel loved and confident are more likely to be able to make positive lifestyle changes and feel good about themselves while they are doing it.
- Don't be the "food police." Watching over your kids like a hawk and creating a list of "forbidden foods" is likely to backfire. Kids whose diets are severely restricted will often resort to sneaking food and even binging in private.
- Teach your children about balanced nutrition. The whole family should have a basic understanding of what constitutes a healthful diet. If you need help, ask your doctor for a referral to a registered dietitian.
- Involve the children in shopping, menu planning, and cooking. It is helpful for kids to be involved and feel like they have some control over their diet.
- Have several healthy snacks on hand. It is normal for kids to get hungry between meals. Healthful snacks will keep them going throughout the day. Kid-friendly choices include apple slices with peanut butter, yogurt with granola, dried fruit and nuts, and pre-cut vegetable sticks with low-fat dip.
- Don't use food as punishment or reward. Kids should understand that food is fuel for a healthy body, as well as a source of pleasure. Associating food with punishment or reward may distort children's views of the role of food in their lives.
- Have your kids eat their meals and snacks at the table. Kids (and adults) who eat while watching TV or doing other activities are more likely to overeat because they are not paying attention to how much they are eating.
- Encourage physical activity. This may be one of the most important things you can do for your kids. Regular exercise is vital to weight control, as well as to health. While team sports or community activity programs are great, it is also a good idea for parents to exercise with their kids and make it a family affair, such as walks after school or weekend hikes.
- Limit TV/computer time. Set reasonable limits to how long your children can sit in front of the television or the computer.
- Don't give your children any weight-loss remedies or medicines. Many are not safe for children and could cause harmful side effects. Talk to the pediatrician before giving any weight-loss medicine.
- Encourage your child to get plenty of sleep. Not getting enough sleep may increase your child's risk of obesity. Depending on your child's age, he may need 9-11 hours of sleep each night.
Healthful Habits for Life
The best advice for any family is to eat and enjoy healthful food together and to exercise together. Kids who learn healthful behaviors as part of a family lifestyle are much more likely to continue those healthful habits throughout their lives.

Okay, the final eight players have had a day off to nurse their injuries and rest up, so here's the proposition for tonight's game. Tonight's proposition bet comes from the brilliantly twisted and devious mind of SoSG Eric Karros:
The last comment in this Proposition Post thread on or before 7:00 PM will be by someone who took (or was given) the "True" side of this True/False proposition.
Just to be clear, since this one is a bit trickier:
- The first person to comment in each head-to-head competition must establish a side, either by voting "True" or "False". That first comment in each bracket establishes the proposition sides for both players in that bracket.
- The person who makes the *last* comment on or before 7:00 PM will establish which side "wins" (for all four brackets).
Cast your votes here. As usual, any votes made after 7:00 PM PT are invalid. Good luck!

Those were the days I didn't make bread at home, so mostly I had to go to the bakers to buy bread and while we were in the bakers my daughter used to point to this chocolate bun and ask for it.
So while i window shoped, did my grocerry shopping etc......she used to munch on these buns enjoying them fully.
Few months back I bought this bread baking book and to my daughters delight there was the recipe for these buns.
So as Jamie is hosting this months MM and her theme is chocolate in bread.
I think next time i will less the oven temperature especially as my oven is conventional, they were a teeney weeney bit browner than I wanted.
My bounty of Callebaut chocolate .
I made this from Rachel Allen.
According to my daughter they were really yummy, but I won't be making them anymore as it was such a sticky thing to make, I spilled sugar every where and had to clean up my whole kitchen. My fault i should have been more carfull.
And my daughter remarked, what is there if you have to clean up, when the lollipops are tasting so good.
Now thinking about it I should have left the kitchen sticky till my daughter came from school so she would clean it up as the lollipop was so tasty.
Well while i did the clenaing I didn't know she would be making the above remark :-)
Make the recipe for Basic bread I used the recipe for 8 pieces so below are the measurment for that.
100 gm of baking chocolate
1 egg
After the first 30 minutes raising of the basic bread, knowk the air down. Make the dough into a sguare shape, put all the chocolate in the middle. And mix the chocolate pieces into the dough till they are fully mixed evenly.
Make the dought into a ball shape and keep them for raising in a bowl for another 30 minutes , cover the bowl with a towel of a plastic foil.
After 30 minute raising push down the air and weigh 50 gm each of the dough and shape into a ball.
Place them in a tray which is lightly oiled. Press the ball a bit down.
Cover with a tea towel and keep in a warm place for raising.
After 15 minutes brush each ball with beaten egg. And just give a small 2 cuts on each side of them ball. This will give you the un even shape to the buns.
Let them rise now without the tea towel for 45 minutes in a warm place.
Preaheat the oven to 230° c and bake them for 10 minutes. With this temperature in my oven it got a bit too dark so i might less the temperature to 200°c next time.
The buns were a bit too densed, could be because I added to much chocolate or maybe my pieces were a bit too big. Next time will cut the choco pieces half.
It is Carnival Holidays for my daughter from tommorow onwards for a whole week, so no blog hopping for a week, see you all after a week of holiday.

An expectedly sparse turnout of 2,679 voters pulled the levers at West End precincts Tuesday, electing Democrat Charniele Herring as delegate of the 46th District in a special election, according to unofficial returns from the Virginia State Board of Elections.
However, the unofficial results from the Virginia State Board of Elections reveal Herrings win to be a margin of just 16 votes over Republican candidate Joe Murray, prompting the Alexandria Republican City Committee to petition for a recount, and the Republican-led House of Delegates to deny Herring a seat Wednesday.
We were planning for it, but to say that we were expecting it would probably be an exaggeration, said Alexandria Republican Chair Chris Marston about filing a petition.
Herring travelled to Richmond for the first day of the 2009 General Assembly session where lawmakers refused to seat the victor of the narrow margin despite the State Board of Elections declaring Herring victorious, arguing it would be inappropriate to seat someone whos win could be overturned. For Herring, the numbers dont lie, and she is acting as such.
Right now we are continuing business as usual, Herrings campaign manager and legislative aid Jennifer Bissett said from Richmond. [Herring is] duly elected and certified by the State Board of Elections as representative of the 46th District and so we are down here to talk to colleagues and learn about procedure. Were moving forward.
Both Herring and Murray have hired lawyers to deal with the recount, according to Alexandria Democrat and Republican spokespersons. Candidates are entitled to petition for a recount if the margin of difference for a two-party election is less than one percent, According to the Virginia Board of Elections. Of the 45,891 active voters, 1,344 voted for Herring and 1,328 voted for Murray a difference of 0.56 percent.
There were seven write-in votes. Only about 5.8 percent of voters turned out for the special election.
Im formulating a team of very smart, professional attorneys and election law specialists to determine and make sure that voters did in fact elect the right person to serve the 46th district, Murray said. At this point I have not and will not concede until an official recount determines what the right outcome is.
Recount protocol states that the petition should be filed with the Alexandria Circuit Court, which has been done. From there, Chief Judge Donald Haddock Sr. will contact the State Supreme Court where the chief justice will appoint two judges from outside Alexandria to join Haddock in adopting recount procedures. In conjunction with the Alexandria and Fairfax County electoral boards, a recount will ensue.
The recount issue is just the latest development in what has been a drama-filled political soap opera that started when gubernatorial candidate Brian Moran decided to vacate his delegate seat at the last second, causing Herring, Murray and other candidates to run scurried campaigns to win their party primaries. Murray was the last candidate to file, beating the deadline by about 20 minutes and running about a six-hour campaign.
Herring and Murrays campaigns lasted about a month through the holidays before coming to an unstable end Tuesday night.

Jazz out-run Warriors in Game 1: Nothing takes the air out of a good unified national fan bandwagon like losing.
Just as
I think the Warriors had too long of a rest between series, while
In the end, that's what I'm watching: I won't count the Warriors out until they lose at home (which they won't). This is going to be a hell of a good series.
(Meanwhile, with all the attention on Baron Davis right now, will this series be the moment that
Pistons blow out Bulls... again: Wow, is this going to be over quickly or what? It's not even about Ben Wallace's old teammates showing him what's what; it's about the class of the conference beating up on a wannabe.
Mark Cuban supports PEDs in the NBA: I'm sure there's more nuance to his argument than was presented in the Men's Journal article. There's a part of me that thinks he says these kinds of things to say them, for the attention they bring, and part of me that thinks he says these things because he's a really smart guy and he knows what he's talking about. I'm pretty sure he'll be shouted down in this case, because "PED" is the dirtiest word in sports right now.
Roger Clemens says "it's not about the money," which is the biggest load of bunk in the Clemens saga since "But the test was clean."
MLB Stud: Brad Penny, who had a career-high 14 Ks (with zero BBs), raising his record to 4-0 and lowering his ERA to 1.39.
Runners-up: Chris Capuano (season-high 9 Ks) and Chris Young (8Ks in 6 IP), both winning.
MLB Dud: Joel Zumaya, out for 12 weeks with a finger injury. TBD how it might impact the rest of his season.
HBO yanks Mayweather-DeLaHoya fight off YouTube: A few thoughts on this – (1) Why did it take HBO until Monday to figure out it was out there? (2) The audience for the clips was pretty low. That should bother HBO (and boxing) a lot more than copyright infringement. Maybe if they had two guys boxing AND using Mentos and soda to cause an explosion...
Billy Donovan turns down Grizzlies: I totally neglected to mention this yesterday. Actually, I believe I had written about the Grizzlies' interest in Donovan back in early March, along with the $5 million figure thrown around yesterday. Don't ask how I knew. (Seriously: I think it was from a random message board or something.) Anyway, Billy wanted full control, and the Grizz didn't want to give it to him. Interest over.
There's only one team dumb enough to give one person the coach and GM roles, along with a sick amount of money, and the Knicks already have a guy in that role... for now. I've always claimed that the Knicks job -- coach, GM, the works -- is the one Donovan will get... and take. Will it happen in 2008? We'll see.
Is Shaun Alexander's foot still broken? Eh, maybe the Seahawks would have wanted to know about that before draft day...
Does Jermaine O'Neal want to play for the Knicks? If I was
Pac-Man Jones' lawyers have a point when they say that his season-long suspension was "unprecedented in its severity." The Commish should/will reply: "Yeah? So what?"
Greg Oden picked Mike Conley Jr.'s dad as his agent. That cannot possibly surprise you.
This is a pretty good summary of what makes Josh Hamilton so intriguing.

I recently came across the concept of roasting strawberries. The idea of roasting strawberries came as a bit of a surprise as I had never even considered it. I like roasting vegetables because it concentrates the flavour and there was no reason that it could not do the same for strawberries. I have recently been enjoying quinoa salads and I thought that a savoury roasted strawberry quinoa salad would be a good place to start experimenting with roasted strawberries. Since strawberries and asparagus generally in season together I thought that adding asparagus would be fitting. Balsamic vinegar goes well with strawberries and I thought that roasting the strawberries in balsamic vinegar would be nice. I also figured that the strawberry juices combined with the balsamic vinegar would make a nice base for a dressing. The roasted strawberry and asparagus quinoa salad turned out to be really tasty! I really enjoyed the roasted strawberries and they were full of flavour. The balsamic dressing went really well with the roasted strawberries and the garlic added a nice bite. I can't wait to use roasted strawberries again.
Roasted Strawberry and Asparagus Quinoa Salad
- 1 cup quinoa
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup strawberries (sliced)
- 1/2 pound asparagus (cut into bite sized pieces)
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup chickpeas
- 1/4 cup feta (crumbled)
- 1 handful pecans (chopped)
- 1 clove garlic (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- Simmer the quinoa in the water until the water is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
- Toss the strawberries and asparagus in the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper.
- Roast the strawberries and asparagus in a preheated 400F/200C oven until caramelized, about 10-20 minutes.
- Assemble the salad.
- Mix the juices left in the roasting pan with the garlic, honey and mustard in a small bowl.
- Pour the dressing onto the salad and toss to coat.
