The year 2006 was a milestone for the Latvian mezzo-soprano Elīna Garanča. She celebrated her 30th birthday, married, and fulfilled a long-held dream by signing a contract with Deutsche Grammophon. Appropriately, her first recording for DG is a snapshot of this moment in the life of a versatile young singer already making her name in the opera houses of the world.
Elīna Garanča's programme shows off the richness and legato qualities of a voice that combines flexibility and easy coloratura with an ever-increasing feel for drama. There are cornerstones from the mezzo-soprano repertoire, such as Charlotte's heartbreaking letter scene from Massenet's Werther, the coloratura tour de force of Cinderella's big aria from Rossini's La Cenerentola, and the iridescent harmonies of the Act III trio and duet from Strauss's Rosenkavalier. But there are also samples of sophisticated operetta (Offenbach's La Grande-Duchesse de Gérolstein), bel canto, French-style (Gounod's "Nuit resplendissante" from Cinq-Mars), and a foray into soprano territory with Villa-Lobos's exquisite Bachianas brasileiras no. 5. "I've chosen a programme that demonstrates the development in my voice and highlights some of the operatic roles I'm doing now or in the near future", explains Elīna Garanča. "I'm also thinking of the international public by including repertoire in Italian, French, German,Spanish and Portuguese, because I want everyone who picks up the CD to feel that they are being spoken to."
Elīna Garanča was born into a musical family in Riga in 1976, but her first ambition was to follow in the footsteps of a different kind of diva: "I'd sing along to records of Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston, and I wanted to go into musical theatre. But it just wasn't possible. At that time the Soviet Union was breaking up - I'd have had to go to either Estonia or Finland to study and my mother didn't want me to go abroad at such a young age. So after I'd finished high school I thought, 'Well then, I'll become an opera singer instead.'" Whitney and Mariah were replaced by Joan Sutherland. "When I was 17 I used to put on a record of Sutherland singing 'Casta diva' and yell along in the apartment with all the windows open until the neighbours started shouting at me to shut up!"
One of her most formative experiences came in 1998 while she was still a student: with only ten days' notice, she performed the role of Giovanna Seymour in Anna Bolena and uncovered a deep affinity with the bel canto repertoire. "It was a coproduction between Greece and Romania in Vienna, where I was taking part in a competition. I got a call saying that Agnes Baltsa was ill, and that Vesselina Kasarova had just had a baby; could I step in? Looking back, it was absolutely crazy, especially as I'd never been on a professional stage before. But that's how it started, and that very first role marked me. Bel canto is so fantastically beautiful."
Perhaps surprisingly, Garanča feels it's the Iberian-language repertoire that best demonstrates this art of "beautiful singing" - but then, is there a more sinuously legato vocal piece than Villa-Lobos's famous Bachianas brasileiras no. 5 for soprano and eight cellos which, in this CD, has been lavishly arranged for a full string orchestra. Garanča also visits Xavier Montsalvatge's native Catalonia in his haunting Madrigal on a Catalan Folksong, and returns to Spain proper for the delightful zarzuela number "Carceleras" from Las hijas del Zebedeo. "I'm particularly happy to include the Spanish repertoire, because, since childhood, I've loved Spain - the language, the music and rhythms."
But no survey of the mezzo bel canto repertoire would be complete without Rossini's La Cenerentola. "What I love about playing Angelina - Cenerentola - is that her character really does develop from the beginning of the opera to the end. She can be humble, sad, but also angry and spirited, and she can stand up for herself. I love her final scene 'Nacqui all'affano', where she is filled with so many emotions - pride, forgiveness, joy."
Garanča is also developing rapidly in dramatic mezzo roles such as Carmen, Eboli and Charlotte. "Charlotte is one of the very few dramatic roles I would consider doing at the moment, and only sparingly, because in my experience I am so much more tired after a performance of Werther than, say, a performance of Cosě. But I love the complexity of Charlotte. I don't see her as a humble girl who just goes along with her family's wishes to marry Albert. She plays with Werther's emotions, telling him, 'I can't love you, but come back and see me at Christmas time.' I feel she is quite manipulative, whether intentionally or unconsciously. The more complexity I can bring to the character, the more intense it is for the audience."
Garanča also excels in the trouser roles - the mysterious and androgynous Nicklausse in Les Contes d'Hoffmann and Strauss's passionate and ardent Octavian, a role in which she has had great success. Here, in the poignant Act III music, with its theme of love both lost and found, she's joined by Diana Damrau and Adrianne Pieczonka, who sang Sophie and the Marschallin respectively in the critically acclaimed 2006 Vienna State Opera production for which Garanča received high praise. But how does such a beautiful and feminine-looking singer deal with transforming herself into a young man, with male dress and a male mind-set, for the operatic stage?
"From the beginning, when I started to perform my first trouser roles, I'd sometimes sit in the park or by the football field, or in a bar on a Friday night, and observe the men - how they talk and move, the way they sit or stand and gesticulate. My husband tells me this is a bit of an exasperating trait - that I'm always watching people and picking up their mannerisms! But I bring all these observations to the role I'm performing, whether it is comic or tragic - and I really don't mind if people laugh with me or at me! It is all part of creating a truthful drama. For me, acting and singing go hand in hand - on the opera stage, the one cannot exist without the other."
For a singer who has been described as "able to float a high pianissimo to die for", wasn't Garanča ever tempted to become a prima donna soprano? "I did have a choice a few years ago to go in that direction. And perhaps one day I'd like to sing Tosca, Fiordiligi or Vitellia; but temperamentally, I'm happier as a mezzo-soprano. It is also very much to do with personal ego. You have to realize that as a mezzo, unless the opera is called Carmen or La Cenerentola, you're only ever going to be number three on the evening, because there will always be the soprano and tenor before you. If a singer is very concerned with her ego, she might then work on developing into a soprano, if she has that choice. But it does not appeal to me; those roles like Gilda or Lucia just don't suit my temperament. They're victims and I have no desire to die a tragic death at the end of the opera, night after night. I would rather be the killer!"
So for anyone who believes that the mezzo-soprano is the Cinderella of voices, left sweeping up in the shadows as the soprano takes her curtain call, take heed of Elīna Garanča. Like Rossini's Cenerentola, this beautiful and versatile singer has the last laugh.

GTA 5: rapper teases return of San Andreas character B Dup
Grand Theft Auto 5 could see the return of character Mark 'B Dup' Wayne, as played by rapper Jayceon Terrell Taylor, otherwise known as The Game. Taylor confirmed that he has worked with Rockstar on the game in a new interview with Wired 96.5. Watch the video below. Thanks CVG.
Skip to 3.49 to hear The Game talk about his work with Rockstar, and namedrop B Dup.
In case you're unsure of who B Dup is, the GTA Wiki describes him as, "A loyal member to the Grove Street Families but began to move away from the gang and into the drug scene. Dup begins to sell drugs in Los Santos, including to Barry Thorne (Big Bear), who he enslaves as his servant. Dup has Bear clean his home in Ganton. B Dup is also later heard on West Coast Talk Radio, saying 'The problem in the hood is that there isn't enough drugs in the hood'".
Could The Game's involvement signify B Dup's return? We'll know when GTA 5 launches worldwide on PS3 and Xbox 360 in Spring 2013
It was revealed earlier today that the game's protagonist is an 'East coast gangster'.

Technolog has an amusing posting about how the Apple personal assistant feature, Siri, is unconveniently similar in spelling to the Japanese word shiri — um, which means "buttocks."
Not sure why that's reportedly trending on Twitter but Siri is pronounced "seer-ree" (or something like that) with no H. We checked with Apple reporter extraordinaire Casey Newton.
This is reminiscent of all those tampon jokes people made in March 2010 when Apple unveiled its iPad. Haha, MaxiPad, iPad, get it? Hrmmmmm, the Cupertino company went on to sell 14.8 million iPads worldwide that year. Guess they're the ones with the last laugh.

I feature a lot of T-Shirts on this site that fall under the category of "geek", however, I don't think I've featured one as geeky as this email counting tee. The shirt, which was designed by software designer Chris Bell, keeps an up-to-date count of the number of unread emails in your email inbox. Think that I'm kidding? Watch the video. It's kind of unbelievable and all kinds of awesome.
The shirt is a one-off so don't even try to look for a "buy now" link. The shirt is open source (ever thought you'd hear the term open source in reference to a T-Shirt?) so that means if you pick up the same components from Spark Fun Electronics you could theoretically make your own. The shirt makes use of LilyPad Arduino on the software side of things. The script needed to run the T-Shirt can be found here.

Ay, listen to my demo, oh!
That's the sound of the bed when it's tweakin' with you and me in it
The passion, the sex, girl, sex like a clinic
Especially when we put on that bump 'n grind
That 12-Play get that boy some pus*y every time
There's something about that sh*t when we put that sh*t on
And not to mention when you mix that sh*t with some Patron
That's why she keep pursuin' it
She love how I'm doin' it
Cause shorty scream like, "Aaah!" like I got two in it
And you don't have to wonder
Twelve's the magic number
Just count from one to twelve, and I'll be going under
Making your body shake like a horror movie (Hit it, hit it!)
It ain't no secret why I be king 'til I die
12-Play deserves a Grammy, because I believe I can fly
I believe that your mommy and daddy laid it down, and they did it
To Kelly's 12-Play
[Hook: The-Dream]
You can't ruin it
From doin' it to Kelly's 12-Play
Like a DJ we screwin' it
While we doin' it (ooh-ooh-in' it) to Kelly's 12-Play
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh!
We gon' come up off that bed, push up to the dresser... yeah, yeah, yeah
Now we're all up on my CD player up
Skip, skip, skip-skip, skip-skip back to seven
And we both sweatin' it out like it's a fire up in here
Reach my hand up to the remote, gotta play that one more gear
As we repeat steps 1 through 12
She's like, "Thank you, Dream!"
I'm like, "No, thank you, Kells!"
So I stunt like my daddy up in here
Girl, you got my lips hangin' off your ear
Clean the CD, check for scratches, get up on my mattress
And now we doin' it to Kelly's 12-Play
[R. Kelly]
Ah, ah, I say we doin' it... k-k-killa! (Killa!)
I am the best at what I do
So close the door and let me show you
I got my tongue all up in it like (leetle-leetle-leetle-leetle-leetle)
Now, I'ma make you change your notes like (leetle-leetle-leetle-leetle-leetle)
Do you like that? Do you like this?
Then tell me how does this feel?
Girl, my only aim's to please your body
I'ma sing to that puss, make it sing right back to me
We can be a duet, we've got that kind of chemistry
And if I smoke grass, baby, I'mma light one up cause that was by far the greatest... (f*ck)
'Bout to get that ass up to bidness up in here, 'bout to get your man fired up in here
Because... are you fiendin' for it? And I'm 'bout to run up in it!
So don't hate, listen to my mixtape
And if you wanna know, my favorite's number four on Kelly's 12-Play

Big or small, heavy or light, pink or blue, we all carry a diaper bag almost everywhere we go with our babies. But what should be in there? What's considered essential and what's just plain silly to lug around? If you have a tiny diaper bag, do you ever wonder what's in those giant bags on other mommies' shoulders? And on the other side, how do some moms travel with such a tiny bag, especially when cloth diapering??
I can't speak for everyone, but I'm going to dissect my own bag. Keep in mind that I have four kids, only
one of whom is still in diapers.
First, when I'm going out for a couple of hours, say to church or a playdate, I like to carry two extra diapers. If it's going to be longer, like maybe most of the day, I prefer to have four. This dictates which bag I will use. Typically I use the bag pictured here for daily use, but I also have a bigger one if we're going to be gone a while. Here's what I have in my bag right now:
- a disposable wipes case filled with half a dozen wet cloth wipes
- hand sanitizer
- diaper rash cream
- a few disposable wipes just in case I run out of the cloth ones
- spare pants for the baby
- a wet bag to hold all the dirty diapers
- a couple of toys
- a tube of baby sunblock
- 2 pocket diapers
- 1 PUL cover
- 1 prefold to trifold in the cover
Is all that necessary? No. The essentials in any diaper bag are simply wipes and diapers. With cloth, you
also need to carry either a wet bag or a plastic bag to carry the dirty diapers home. Everything else is extra.
So what's in your diaper bag? Anything you know you don't need? Something you're dying to share with other mommies to make their lives a little easier? Tell us!
Kristi Stokes has been the mom behind the Wee Little Changes blog for nearly a year now. She is a stay-at-home mom to four awesome kids and started cloth diapering 3 years ago. You can visit Wee Little Changes, a Knickernappies retailer, at http://www.weelittlechanges.

With NFL offenses growing faster each season, the Chicago Bears, in recent seasons, devised a plan of their own to slow the league's up-tempo attacks.
Faking injuries.
That's according to Brian Urlacher, the former All-Pro Bears linebacker who retired this offseason after 13 decorated seasons in the Windy City. The middle linebacker was the centerpiece of the Bears' defense and served as the unit's traffic cop -- he saw it all.
"We had a guy who was the designated dive guy," Urlacher said Tuesday on Fox Sports 1, via the Chicago Sun-Times.
Urlacher went on to describe how a Bears assistant would mimic a swimmer's diving motion from the sideline to initiate the ploy, which often came on long drives when the defense needed a breather. Urlacher wouldn't reveal the assistant, saying: "It wasn't coached, but it was part of our game plan."
It's not an act the league permits, of course, but we've seen hints of it for years. The New York Giants were accused of faking injuries during a nationally televised 28-13 victory over the St. Louis Rams in 2011. Long before that, renowned Seattle Seahawks coach Chuck Knox once admitted his nose tackle, Joe Nash, faked injuries four times to stop the clock against the no-huddle offense of the Cincinnati Bengals during a 1988 AFC divisional playoff tilt.
Accusations of faking injuries are nothing new, but you don't see players outing their former teams often. The Bears can't be thrilled with Urlacher's early run as a talking head.The "Around The League Podcast" is now available on iTunes! Click here to listen and subscribe.

group of people with minority sexual orientations and/or gender identities
- "Gay" redirects here; for the English writer and poet, see John Gay.
LGBT or GLBT is an initialism that stands for lesbian, gay, bisexuality, and transgender. In use since the 1990s, the term is an adaptation of the initialism LGB, which was used to replace the term gay in reference to the LGBT community beginning in the mid-to-late 1980s. Activists believed that the term gay community did not accurately represent all those to whom it referred.
LGBT rights are considered human rights by the Amnesty International and civil rights by some.
- We're at an interesting (and terrible) moment where we're witnessing attacks on most every gain working people have made for at least the last half century. The curious exception to that has been the advance of marriage and civil rights for gay and lesbian couples in many U.S. states and core imperialist countries. But while we can celebrate the dismantling of many of the legal barriers to equality, we need to be mindful of the cost assimilation has had on "gay" communities, the movement's relationship to other progressive causes, and lastly how it measures up to radical ideas of gender and sexual freedom.

USCG PSC Equals meaningful Polar Presence
The Coast Guard needs a ship that can do more than just break ice; it needs a multi-mission ship to provide for the nation's security, asserting its sovereign rights, and protecting its long-term economic interests. That ship is the Polar Security Cutter.Since Russia cashed the check in 1867 for the purchase of Alaska the U.S. has been an Arctic nation. Today, it is one of eight countries that have territorial land or seas above the Arctic Circle or in the polar region (six of those countries have Arctic Ocean coastline or an exclusive economic zone above the Arctic Circle). The U.S. has also conducted significant research activities in the Antarctic region for many years.

3rd mechanic swapped horn and ASD relay...stalled only once, now hesitates /misfires sporadically during acceleration. Help! 1996JeepGC, do you have ay advice?????/
Like many other Jeep GC owners, I have recently been experiencing stalling problems. It all started about 3 months ago and happened only sporadically until the last few weeks. The vehicle will be sitting at idle or going at a very slow speed and will just stall. It cranks back up fine (most of the time-sometimes, it takes about 30 seconds of cranking it)This problem, I find, occurs more in the morning and worse the longer the vehicle has sat undriven (overnight or during a work shift) I have taken it to 2 different mechanics and the following has been done:
-replaced Idle Air Control (old one looked pretty corroded, so I was very hopeful)
-Changed plugs, wires, distributor cap
Neither of these things did ANY good and searching the internet, I found SEVERAL posts on here about the "magic answer" by backing out or replacing the screws with shorter ones on the ECM. At the risk of sounding like an idiot (because I don't know alot about cars,) I took the article to my mechanic and asked him, as a last ditch effort, to try this magical solution. He says he did and the problem persists! I was told to take to Jeep but that I shouldn't get my hopes up on actually getting an answer/fix. I was advised to get rid of it while I could, but I love my Jeep and don't exactly have the means to go out and buy another vehicle in this crappy economy. PLEASE help you have any information or further tips that could help me keep/fix my baby!

After the patient's bladder is filled with a liquid called contrast material, an X-ray machine sends beams of radiation through the abdomen and pelvis, and images are recorded on special film or a computer. These images help doctors see problems in parts of the urinary system, including the bladder, urethra (the tube connecting the bladder with the outside of the body), and the ureters (the tubes connecting the kidneys to the bladder).
A radiologist takes the X-rays using a technique called fluoroscopy. While the contrast material fills your child's bladder, and then while your child empties the bladder, the radiologist watches an onscreen X-ray video of the liquid moving through the urinary system and a series of X-ray films is recorded.
In general, X-rays are very safe. Although there is some risk to the body with any exposure to radiation, the amount used in a VCUG is small and not considered dangerous. It's important to know that Nemours radiologists use the minimum amount of radiation required to perform the study properly.

What if the nanoworld slides - A new study to better understand how friction works
|(Nanowerk News) A study published by Andrea Vanossi, Nicola Manini and Erio Tosatti - three SISSA researchers - in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences ("Static and dynamic friction in sliding colloidal monolayers") provides a new tool to better understand how sliding friction works in nanotribology, through colloidal crystals. By theoretically studying these systems of charged microparticles, researchers are able to analyze friction forces through molecular dynamics simulations with accuracy never experienced before.
|There are several and very concrete potentialities, stated Andrea Vanossi, one of the members of the research group. Just think of the constant miniaturization of high-tech components and of all the different nanotechnology sectors: if we understand how friction works at these levels, we will be able to create even more effective molecular motors or functional microsystems.
|Colloidals are part of our everyday life (e.g. milk, asphalt or smoke) and they differentiate according to the state of the dispersed and dispersing substance (liquid, solid or gaseous).
|The simulations were performed by SISSA in collaboration with ICTP, the Department of Physics in Milan and the CNR-IOM Institute for Materials Manufacturing and they allowed understanding what happens when a colloidal monolayer slides against an optical reticle modifying some parameters such as surface corrugation, drift speed or contact geometry.
|The research method is also something new. Before this simulation was performed, only some recent experiments carried out in Germany tried for the first time to describe the behaviour of individual particles of a colloid in friction conditions, but never in such a precise way.
|More in detail, researchers also suggest a way to directly extract the energy lost in friction by using the sliding data of the colloid. This study is innovative also because it will allow predicting the different regimes of static friction realized according to the density of colloids and the strength of the optical reticle, added Erio Tosatti, another member of the research group. All this lets us assume that crystalline solid surfaces will act in a similar way. We have never been able to make such a hypothesis before.
|This study will open the way to new systems to explore the complexity of similar events, maybe at a microscopic scale.

For some reason, all of the terminators have sensor problems. They are everywhere and about to terminate everyone, but they can't put one foot in front of the other in a quick manner. They are extremely slow. Still, you have to avoid them, because even if a terminator is slow, it can still bite your ass off.
There are many different new terminators out there, like I've never seen before. I have to swing on a rope and drop onto a truck to avoid them. There is some kind of a chase in a house that we got near. We have to get away from the terminators.

Game #8 Jays at Red Sox
UPDATE — 9:38 pm: Ryan Patterson, one of Toronto's top outfield prospects, broke an arm when hit by a pitch during the game against Boston on Thursday. Last season, the 23-year-old Patterson hit .277 with 25 home runs and 89 RBIs in 133 games between high-Class A Dunedin and Double-A New Hampshire. He's Toronto's fourth-best prospect, according to Baseball America. There will be more details on Friday.
Wait, there was a game in Fort Myers today? And it counted in the Grapefruit League standings? Huh, that's funny, because Toronto kept it's "A" squad back in Dunedin for a "B" game against the Phillies on Thursday. Neither myself, nor the majority of the Toronto press corps, made the trip to City of Palms Park. So, here's what went down at Knology Park instead:
Philadelphia at Toronto
at Knology Park in Dunedin, Fla.
Today's lineups:
Michael Bourn, CF
Danny Sandoval, SS
Gregg Dobbs, LF
Jayson Werth, RF
Ron Calloway, DH
Jason Hill, 1B
Andrew Beattie, 2B
Michael Costanzo, 3B
Ryan Budde, C
PITCHING: Adam Eaton
Reed Johnson, LF
Alex Rios, CF
Lyle Overbay, 1B
Frank Thomas, DH
Troy Glaus, 3B
Matt Stairs, RF
Gregg Zaun, C
Aaron Hill, 2B
Royce Clayton, SS
PITCHING: A.J. Burnett
Thomas made his unofficial debut for the Blue Jays, going 1-for-3 with an RBI single in the first inning. Following an eight-pitch at-bat, Johnson led off the first with a single. He then moved to second on a base-hit by Rios, moved to third on a 6-4-3 double play, and then scored when Thomas roped a single up the middle.
"Hopefully it'll be over 100 [RBIs] for him, and over 100 [runs] for me. That'd be awesome," Johnson said afterward.
Johnson and Rios were also making their debuts in the field this spring. Johnson has been out with a sore lower back, which in turn was causing strain on his right oblique muscle, but he's been cleared to play. Rios has been bothered by a sore right shoulder, and has been serving as a DH. Now, he's cleared to play, too.
Burnett gave up three runs in three innings, and admitted to having trouble locating his fastball early on in the outing. He began mixing in a handful of curveballs, but the righty was focussing on his fastball and changeup in the start.
HOW HEAVY IS IT? You've probably read somewhere already about the piece of rebar that Thomas uses to warm up before each at-bat. It's a steel rod that is normally used to reinforce concrete. It's been estimated to weight anwhere between seven and 60 pounds.
An assistant trainer for the White Sox found it on a construction site in 1991 and brought it to Sarasota, which used to be Chicago's spring site. Thomas took to swinging it before at-bats and has used it over the last 17 years. When asked today how much the steel rod weighed, Thomas smiled and said, "Man, I don't know. It's heavy — real heavy. Maybe 30 or 35 pounds?"
GOOD IMAGE OF THE DAY: Toronto outfielder Adam Lind grew up roughly four hours away from Chicago and he used to make trips to the Windy City to see Thomas play for the White Sox. Now, the 23-year-old rookie gets to share the locker room with the 6-foot-5, 275-pound slugger.
On Thursday, while Thomas signed autographs outside, team trainer George Poulis picked up the Big Hurt's bag to bring it into the clubhouse (he dropped the rebar in the process, causing Thomas and the crowd to let out a big laugh). Lind scooted over to pick up th rebar and carried it inside.
Later, Thomas sat in front of his locker, getting ready for his workout, and Lind stood nearby, striking up a conversation with the slugger. Lind was fidgeting back and forth, and he couldn't stop smiling while he talked with Thomas — one of his childhood heroes. It was just a nice moment between a future Hall of Famer and a young up-and-comer.
THAT OTHER GAME: So the Jays did play that game against Boston after all. Tomo Ohka struck out two and gave up just one hit over three shutout innings. Utility man Jason Smith homered in his second straight game.
On deck: John Thomson is scheduled to pitch three innings and Victor Zambrano two against the Astros Friday afternoon in Dunedin. It'll also be Thomas' official debut.

A's get sloppy in series opener with Angels
ANAHEIM -- Sights rarely seen by the A's doomed them on Monday night at Angel Stadium.
Third baseman Josh Donaldson made three throwing errors that let in two unearned runs; his team didn't hit a home run for the first time in 17 games; and Angels right-hander Garrett Richards pitched seven masterful innings to end his long stretch of frustration against the A's, handing Oakland a 4-1 loss.View Full Game Coverage
ANAHEIM -- Sights rarely seen by the A's doomed them on Monday night at Angel Stadium.
Third baseman Josh Donaldson made three throwing errors that let in two unearned runs; his team didn't hit a home run for the first time in 17 games; and Angels right-hander Garrett Richards pitched seven masterful innings to end his long stretch of frustration against the A's, handing Oakland a 4-1 loss.View Full Game Coverage
"We just didn't play a clean game for us today," manager Bob Melvin said. "We didn't swing the bats well. ... J.D. doesn't have too many games like that."
A's starter Jesse Chavez benefited from two fine catches by center fielder Coco Crisp that denied Mike Trout and Kole Calhoun extra-base hits. And a fan-interference call in the fifth inning turned a Trout homer into a ground-rule double.
"I thought Jesse threw well," Melvin said. "You give up three runs to that lineup ... he did his job. We just didn't do enough offensively."
The A's had beaten the Angels the past eight games in which Richards had pitched, dating from Sept. 5, 2012. In six previous games against the A's as a starter, Richards was 0-3 with a 7.50 ERA. On May 30, he got just two outs and gave up five runs in a 9-5 loss at Oakland.
"In the back of your mind, you want to do better than you did," Richards said. "Two-thirds of an inning is pretty, pretty weak. I gave them one that time and I felt like this time was my time to come out swinging."
Richards (6-2) struck out four, walked none and hit a batter. He gave up four hits, and one earned run to lower his ERA to 3.09.
The A's had won seven of nine and nine of their past 13 games. The last time they didn't hit a home run was May 22, at Tampa Bay, a 5-2 loss; they hit 27 in the stretch that Richards and two relievers halted.
Chavez (5-4) lost his third start in a row. He went six innings, allowing three runs (two earned) on eight hits. He struck out five, walked one and hit two batters. The A's have provided just seven runs of support for Chavez in those three losses
"I was lucky to give up three, thanks to the defense," Chavez said. "They saved me tonight. It was just a couple of missed locations with runners on, which has been my Achilles heel the past two, three games."
On Crisp's leaping catch on the track in the third inning that denied Trout at least a double, Chavez said: "All I know is, it was hit hard. Coco made a great play to limit the damage [it turned into a sacrifice fly], and get an out there."
In contrast, there was Donaldson's defensive nightmare. He sailed a throw he said he shouldn't have made on Hank Conger's bunt single in the fifth, launching it well over first baseman Alberto Callaspo's head.
"I've just got to put that in my pocket," Donaldson said.
The second error, on an Albert Pujols grounder, came in the same inning, when Donaldson checked Trout back to second before throwing the ball away.
"I threw a cutter over there," he said.
The third error was a hard one-hopper on which Callaspo, an inexperienced first baseman, didn't do Donaldson any favors. It set up an unearned run against the A's bullpen in the eighth for the final margin.
"We've got to try and leave it behind us," Donaldson said after the A's lost for only the second time in seven games against the Angels. "Turn a page, and go on to tomorrow."
The career-high three errors gave him 12 for the season -- on a day when Melvin discussed what he termed "Gold Glove defense" by Donaldson during his pregame media briefing.
Donaldson leads American League third basemen in All-Star votes with 1,470,544 -- nearly double the total for the Rays' Evan Longoria, who's No. 2.
"The only thing we can do as players is pick him up," Chavez said. "We're all going to have those stretches, those days."

Tim Tebow may have struggled at the Senior Bowl and shined at his Pro Day, but to determine his actual draft stock, and chances of being selected in the first round, look no further than the list of teams that have checked him out in a private workout.
Since holding his Pro Day at Florida on March 17, Tebow has held private workouts with six teams – Buffalo, Seattle, Cleveland, Washington, New England and Minnesota – with another one scheduled this week at Denver.
And Tebow isn't just going for a football workout. Jim Kelly invited him over for dinner at his Buffalo home. Tebow went out to dinner twice in Boston, once with Bill Belichick and once with Tom Brady.
Daniel Jeremiah, a former scout for Baltimore and Cleveland, said the private workout process is often a ruse for NFL teams to send out misinformation, but when it comes to quarterbacks, especially Tebow, the private workouts usually identify who is truly interested.
"Traditionally there's some other teams out there that don't want to show their hand with a personal workout," said Jeremiah, who now runs the NFL draft site MoveTheSticks.com. "But you miss on a quarterback in the first round, people get fired. You're going to put those guys in a private workout, go through every imaginable case to give yourself confidence in that pick."
Tebow may not be a first-round pick, but even Mel Kiper will admit that Tebow won't last past the first half of the second round in next week's draft.
All seven teams looking at Tebow also happen to share one characteristic – having a coaching staff that isn't on the hot seat. Bill Belichick has the ultimate job security, Brad Childress just took his team to the NFC title game while the other five coaching staffs are in their first or second year.
"If it's make-or-break time for your organization, they aren't taking that risk," Jeremiah said. "But when you've got a coach that's in his first year, they can afford to take lumps with Tebow while he develops. And in Belichick's case, he's untouchable."
So who will draft Tebow? We break it down (in alphabetical order):

We've recently seen a virtual avalanche of new mobile games coming down the pike that were developed using Flash and AIR, and more and more of them are using Stage 3D, taking advantage of hardware acceleration for screamingly fast game play.
There are two indie games I'll highlight today, both of which were built with Flash technology: Super Hexagon and Wonderputt. Now available on the iOS AppStore, they're both in the top 20 game apps. Super Hexagon is a super fast-paced race to survive game that will have your heart racing (can you last more than 20 seconds? If so, you're doing incredibly well!). It was originally a free browser game that Terry Cavanaugh developed, and in its first 3 days on the AppStore, the mobile version sold more than 10,000 copies.
For a slightly different pace, Wonderputt is a beautifully illustrated mini-golf game by Reece Millidge. It looks gorgeous on an iPad 3 with Retina display, and was a finalist at the IGF Awards and the Develop Awards for Visual Art. Wonderputt was also originally a desktop game, and is one of Kotaku's 6 Best Games on Web Browsers. There's an in-depth look at the game development here.
Congratulations to both Terry and Reece, and we'll be sharing many more new games with you both here and on gaming.adobe.com in the coming weeks! In the meantime, check out the crazy trailer below for Super Hexagon.

As you probably noticed, the third one isn't all that positive. And now, Lambo is recalling the Gallardo, like Ferrari did with the 458, since the fire thing could still sort of happen.
About 1,500 cars sold from 2004 to 2006 are being recalled because a leak can occur in the power steering pump. Lambo says that the leak was discovered in testing, and that no customers have reported a fire due to this exact leak.
When the fluid leaks, it then spills onto the very hot V10 engine. After that, it could combust, which, to the layperson, means a slight chance of FIERY DEATH.
But, as of right now, it hasn't been an issue for any customers.

The Comfort Factor
Our 2013 Design/Build Award winners serve as a collection of projects "for the people." By that we mean, people working or gathering in diverse places, for different reasons, but who all want and need comfortable surroundings and optimum-performing mechanical systems.
The project by Clark, Inc. at the Wyebrook Farm market serves up a comfortable indoor dining environment as fresh as the great outdoors of the rural Pennsylvania farmland in which its located.
Clark's second winning project for 2013, for the offices of Ponessa & Associates, ensures that those visiting for various kinds of life counseling will find warmth in winter and a cool environment in summer.
EMCOR New England Mechanical Services tackled a monumental challenge of providing sufficient chilled water for manufacturing at the Orafol Americas facility in Avon, CT, as well as some much-needed make-up air for comfort cooling.
Finally, the project by KW Lang Mechanical for the 9th District U.S. Coast Guard facility in Cleveland, OH, was an economical yet very efficient solution for a new facility with a busy staff guarding the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Seaway.
These projects represent Design/Build mechanical contracting at its best and most inventive. These contractors invested their most precious commodity — time — to carefully examine and diagnose each customer's comfort needs, design the best approach to meeting those needs, and install state-of-the-industry systems with great expertise and success.
Congratulations to this year's winners! You've shown us some of the best the industry as to offer, and hopefully, will inspire others on the sidelines to enter a project in 2014.

Five Things Interns Won't Tell You
While companies are busy assessing their interns, the interns are assessing them right back. MarketWatch's Jim Jelter takes a look at the situation from the interns' point of view and discusses five things interns are not likely to tell their employers. (Photo: Getty Images)

Brand name: Zerit
Generic name: stavudine, or d4T
Class: Nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor(nucleotide, NtRTI, or nuke)
Manufacturer: Bristol-Myers Squibb, www.bms.com, (800) 321-1335
AWP: $493.38 (generic $411.16)/month for 40 mg capsules
Standard Dose: One 40 mg capsule twice a day for people weighing 132 pounds or more, or one 30 mg capsule twice a day for people weighing less; with or without food, with no dietary restrictions. It is FDA approved in children from birth on. Zerit is also available in 15 mg, 20 mg, 30 mg, and 40 mg capsules, and a powder for oral solution; check for food restrictions. Dose reduction needed in people with kidney problems. Take missed dose as soon as possible, unless it is closer to the time of your next dose. Do not double up on your next dose. Generic is available.
Potential side effects and toxicity: Headache, diarrhea, nausea, rash, and peripheral neuropathy (tingling, burning, numbness or pain in the hands or feet) are the most common side effects. Peripheral neuropathy is more common in people who have more advanced HIV or are taking other medications that can cause peripheral neuropathy. It goes away once stavudine is stopped, but can be painful and permanently debilitating if stavudine is not stopped as soon as neuropathy is noticed. Caregivers of young children should be instructed regarding noticing and reporting peripheral neuropathy. Additive lipoatrophy (facial wasting) and mitochondrial toxicities can occur when combined with Videx EC. Adverse reactions and serious laboratory abnormalities in children were similar in type and frequency to those seen in adults. Pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas) can be life-threatening and may cause pain in the stomach and back, along with nausea, vomiting, and blood in the urine. Risks for pancreatitis include higher than recommended doses of NRTIs, advanced HIV, and alcohol use. Stop all HIV medications and see a health care provider right away. Your physician will check for pancreatitis by doing blood tests. People with a history of peripheral neuropathy, pancreatitis, or heavy alcohol use should avoid stavudine. Lipoatrophy, fat loss in the face and limbs (arms and legs) and, to a lesser degree, lipohypertrophy (such as "buffalo hump" and increased abdominal fat) has been associated with stavudine. Stavudine and zidovudine (Retrovir) are the HIV drugs most implicated by studies as causing lipoatrophy. Stavudine also seems to be implicated in blood lipid (fat) increases, particularly triglycerides. See chart for potential drug class side effects.
Potential drug interactions: When used in combination with stavudine, drugs such as dapsone, Foscavir (foscarnet), Fungizone (amphotericin B), and Videx EC may increase the risk of developing peripheral neuropathy. Cytovene (ganciclovir), intravenous Pentam (pentamidine), valganciclovir (Valcyte), and Videx EC may increase the risk of pancreatitis. Should be used with caution by people with pre-existing bone marrow suppression, kidney problems, or peripheral neuropathy. Zidovudine and stavudine should not be used together due to evidence that one limits the other's effectiveness. Because of additive neurotoxicity, stavudine should not be combined with Videx EC, if possible.
More information: Stavudine is rarely used in the U.S., due to its toxicity and the availability of newer HIV medications. Contact your health care provider right away if peripheral neuropathy is suspected, but do not stop taking medication unless directed to do so by your health care provider. Studies show that stavudine crosses the blood-brain barrier to a useful degree, which may be beneficial for patients at risk for neurological damage (such as dementia) from HIV. Stavudine is associated with facial wasting, peripheral neuropathy, and pancreatitis, and many leading HIV advocates are adamant that it should be avoided because of these serious, and relatively common, toxicities. See package insert for more complete information on potential side effects and interactions.
Doctor's Comments
I can't think of any reason to use this toxic drug anymore. Even resource-limited countries, where it has been used widely because of its low cost, are trying to move away from d4T. It can cause neuropathy, lipoatrophy, lactic acidosis, and hepatic steatosis (fatty infiltration of the liver). The originally approved dose (40 mg twice a day) was clearly too high, but while d4T might be safer at lower doses, why bother?
-- Joel Gallant, M.D., M.P.H.
Activist's Comments
A very old drug, not used in the United States anymore, and with a list of toxic side effects a mile long; I would steer clear from this one. Unfortunately, it is still used in developing countries, as generics make it a financially attractive agent for cash-strapped governments trying to provide therapies for their populations.
-- Joey Wynn
