Because the Google Nexus 7 was given away to attendees of the Google I/O 2012 Conference, there were a lot of journalists who already had their hands on the device before it was launched. Because of this there are a slew of reviews from around the web for the device. Instead of doing our own review, we are having a super blow out giveaway giving you a chance to win one of seven Nexus 7 devices (three for developers and four for regular members). However, even though we are hosting one of the greatest Internet contests ever, we still want to give you guys a good place to check out reviews of the device, so you can get even more excited about the new device you might win. We thought it worthwhile to put together a compilation of several different reviews from around the web into one spot. For the most part the reviews that we could find are pretty glowing, and some even go as far as to say that the Nexus 7 could be the first real competitor to the iPad. We tend to agree. Regardless, there was a huge variety of perspectives and, of course, we couldn't bring together every article across the web, but here is the culmination of just a few chosen randomly from the large sample we found from a Google search. Overall, the thing that most reviewers were impressed with was three things: (1) the performance of the tablet, (2) the weight and general feel of the tablet, and (3) Jelly Bean. Some were a bit disappointed by the small storage space of only 8GB for the base model, and others were disappointed by the missing rear camera, but for the most part these were all considered minor issues, and didn't really detract from the overall great impression of the device. Here are the review links: Wired.com: Quick quote: "This is the Android tablet you've been waiting for. Beautiful, detailed display. Handsome design and fantastic build quality. Jelly Bean feels like it was built for the Nexus 7. The first 7-inch quad core tablet, it has Porsche-like speed and agility." AllThingsD: Quick quote: "...Google and Asus have produced a very good tablet in the Nexus 7, one I can recommend." Techradar: Quick quote: "Like a bucket of water being used to douse the Kindle's flames, Google appears poised to reclaim any tablet ground lost since the introduction of Amazon's forked version of Android. It may not tread a lot of new ground, but the Nexus 7 is a solid performer and easily the best tablet a couple hundred bucks can buy." PCMag: Quick quote: "Google and Asus smack it out of the park with the Nexus 7, a terrific small-screen tablet that's an incredible value at $200." Gizmodo: Quick quote: "You can argue that the iPad is a better tablet, but is it really $300 better? As useful as tablets are, they're still kind of luxury items. $200 for a full-fledged, seriously-spec'd, fully-capable tablet is an absolute steal. Get it. Seriously." Mashable: Quick quote: "The Nexus 7 may not be the best tablet ever built, but its media savviness and low price make it a crowd-pleaser. For the vast majority of people, it's more than good enough, and if you aren't yet married to the Apple platform, you should be pre-ordering one now." Source: S3Forums.com
The Gizmodo review is telling - they are usually ridiculous Apple fanboys over there that to see some love for Android means Google has finally done something really special. I've been running Jellybean on my Galaxy Nexus for over a week and a half now and it's without question the best, most fluid and snappy user experience I've had on Android. Can't wait to get my Nexus 7!
That price is incredible. Who cares that it doesn't have a rear facing camera? I seriously don't think it's an issue. I'll be carrying my phone for internet via hotspot, so if I need a camera, I've got one. That device is very exiting and I'd love to get one. At $200, it's not hard to justify.

Here, here, I completely agree. It may not knock the iPad out of the park but it sure does the Kindle Fire! Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
Pre ordered mine last week. Should have it in hand by the end of the week according to Google. Tell you what, Google Play store has been a nightmare to work with. They screwed up my order and charged me twice and to call and get customer service took over an hour. Then they told me last week that even though they double ordered my N7 they couldn't cancel it. Now the system hasn't shipped yet and most likely won't until Monday or Tuesday and last Thursday they were telling me they couldn't cancel?:blink: Guess the oatmeal box and string wasn't long enough. Anyway I will have an extra Nexus 7 8gb if anyone wants one. Let me know.
As much as I love android, ics, and Google... I just cannot get excited about the nexus 7. It's really nice spec wise, and I never saw the need for a rear facing camera on a tablet... Front facing yes, but not rear facing. Don't want or need cellular radios either wifi is fine. But the lack of an sd card slot is just stupid. People might try to argue that 8 or 16 gigs is enough but it's not. Hd movies take up a lot of space. And the "well you can stream your media" argument isn't logical either because you aren't always going to have access to wifi. For 50 dollars more I think the samsung tab 2 7.0 is the more complete package.
I think it does knock the ipad out of the park as far as hardware "to me". The only thing that matters is apps and in the regard the ipad wins. Me being engulfed in the Google ecosystem, the Nexus 7 is the best thing since sliced bread.
I have my eyes on the Nexus 7's cheap price and excellent portability... Looking forward to getting it.
I think more storage and rear camera would had put this right close to a ipad. Those are the two things that might keep me from buying
I went to Stample to play with the device and I should say that the device was well put together. Nice tablet for reading, email, web, music and some games. But, storage is my only issue with device. Back camera does not bother me because of the price. This tablet is a most.... Send from Droid RAZR MAXX

Model Packs increase the number of Amp or FX Models of a GuitarPort, TonePort, PODxt, PODxt Live or PODxt Pro, for a wider variety of tone possibilities. When a particular tone in the library relies on a Model available in one of these packs, you'll see symbol(s) to indicate which Packs: MS (Metal Shop), CC (Classics Collection), FX (FX Junkie), and PP (Power Pack).
The models within the FX Junkie Model Pack are already included in PODxt Live, and offered for purchase to add-on to GuitarPort, TonePort, PODxt and PODxt Pro.
Variax is the uniquely flexibile guitar from Line 6. Our Vetta II amplifier includes a digital connection for the Variax that lets you store settings for both your amp and your guitar in the Vetta II so that when you call up a Vetta Channel Memory your amp and guitar can change sounds together. Vetta II Tones marked with this guitar symbol include this Variax data.
For each tone in the library, you'll see an icon for either a single coil or humbucker pickup. This tells you whether the tone is best for use with a single coil pickup or a humbucker, so you can select the appropriate pickup on your guitar when using this tone.
Attention POD 2.0, Flextone and HD147 owners... Your hardware doesn't do Stomp effects, so you'll hear something different than what was intended. Try increasing the Drive or choose a higher gain Amp Model to get the right sound. The other aspects of the sound should translate as expected, so you'll at least get a great starting place for tweaking.
Tones contributed by users to the Public Tone Exchange are made by individual users, who are in no way affiliated with Line 6. Any product name or trademarks used by the users to describe their Tones are the sole property of their respective owners. Any use of these product names or trademarks of other manufacturers should not be construed as an endorsement, association or affiliation with Line 6.

That may be true, but it's not exactly what I was trying to say. To say it another way, I'm guessing the Mets have lost a bigger share of their total output this year than the Dodgers or Cardinals did last year, even if the salary or value lost isn't as great. It's really a comment on how the team is constructed. For the past few years, its seems like there have been precious few average players on the Mets.
"The Dodgers and Cards lost more in terms of salary and value." I believe that. But it seems the Mets' injuries have left them with less. Some days it seems like they're running out near-replacement-level players at almost every position, with Castillo being the notable exception.
Not even on the base paths? I find it tough to believe the "comfort tradeoff" doesn't work out in favor of wearing a cup when the alternative is potentially getting an infielder's spikes in your junk.
Brian Roberts looks "almost done"? He's posting a 16.9 VORP, which puts him 0.1 points away from being in the top 5 second basemen in the AL. And he's playing pretty average defense. That's not a superstar, but it's a long, long way from being "almost done" if he can sustain it for another couple of years.
Anyone can search Twitter and see the "don't we know Brad Arnsberg by the trail of dead" line came from Keith Law. Why not just give him credit for the observation?
Thanks for the reply. I have a ton of respect for both of you, so I'm enormously relieved there's no beef between you. Though I've frequently said online baseball writing needs more battle raps...
Kevin, Keith Law said in one of his chats a couple of weeks ago that you made up the quote about Lars Anderson being "the most overrated prospect in baseball." Here's link: http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/chat/_/id/27034/mlb-insider-keith-law. Any response?
Driven by morbid curiosity, I googled around to see just how gruesome death from EPO overuse is. Turns out the cyclist\'s name is Pantani, not Pantoni, and he died after OD\'ing on cocaine, according to an article I found in The Observer (http://bit.ly/4YAU). Sorry to nitpick, but I thought I\'d mention it for the sake of accuracy.

Ava DuVernay is not letting some big projects that have crossed her desk escape her attention. Earlier this month, it was reported that the "Selma" director was being wooed for two projects, an adaptation of Madeleine L'Engle's "A Wrinkle In Time," and the sci-fi thriller "Intelligent Life," penned by Colin Trevorrow and his "Jurassic World" collaborator Derek Connolly. She didn't waste a moment signing up to helm for the latter project, and before February is out, she's inking a deal for the former.
Deadline reports that DuVernay will indeed direct "A Wrinkle In Time." "Frozen" writer and co-director Jennifer Lee has penned the script for the space- and time-spanning adventure. Here's the book synopsis:
"Intelligent Life" is slated to being production this summer, so it will likely go first, with "A Wrinkle In Time" to follow. Thoughts? Let us know below.

Rhinoplasty - Excellent ResultsThis summer, I had a rhinoplasty and septorhinoplasty with Dr. Robert Glasgold. My perception is that he is a true perfectionist. Dr. Robert is very thorough. He seemed really concerned about making sure I got the results I wanted. He was also really good about making recommendations about techniques for the best outcome. IÂm happy with the way my nose looks and the way it brings out my other features. Honestly, IÂm happy with it over all. Dr. Robert gave me a good picture about what the final results would be, and it was really close to that.
Mark Glasgold, MD, FACS 11 Reviews
Dr. Mark Glasgold is so professional and positive!Last fall I had a Fat Transfer procedure done with Dr. Mark Glasgold and recently I returned to have him take care of the dark circles that were under my eyes. I felt like I was looking much older than I am and after the procedure I look so much younger and am getting lots of compliments. Everything about the process was positive. IÂm so thankful Dr. Mark Glasgold for the work that he did and give him a full recommendation.

30 Years Ago Today 'Thriller' Changed Music Forever
On November 30th, 1982, a pop culture phenomenon the likes of which we will probably never see again, arrived in record stores.
Michael Jackson's Thriller would go on to spend 37 weeks at number 1, and deliver 7 top 10 singles. The amazing "Billie Jean", "Beat It", "Thriller", "The Girl Is Mine", "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'", "PYT (Pretty Young Thing)" and "Human Nature" are still popular today. At the 1984 Grammy Awards, Michael and Thriller won a total of 8 trophies.
Thriller also went on to become the best-selling album of all time. The video for "Billie Jean" was the first by a black artist to ever be played on MTV. And the John Landis directed video for "Thriller" became the standard by which all music videos were judged.
Thriller's influence on today's singers cannot be overestimated. From Justin Bieber to Beyonce, to Maroon 5, Ne-Yo to Bruno Mars, and just about every R&B and Hip Hop star out there today, there's probably no major artist who hasn't been shaped musically by Thriller.

Does anyone know if there are companies out there that can make custom taillights. If i had a design that was an irregular shape that does not look like any other vintage tailight to this point. I was wondering if it was even possible.
The only suggestion I can think of off hand would be to approach some injection molding companies with your idea. I wouldn't think it would be cheap though, since they'll probably want to run a good size batch of them for the cost associated with and time spent making the mold.

Larry Parks
Soul Urge (Heart Desire) Number 2
Larry Parks was a male celebrity.
He was born on Sunday December 13th 1914, in Shawnee, KS, USA,.
Larry Parks wants peace and harmony in all aspects of his life. He wants to devote his life to someone or something. Larry falls in love easily. He is extremely sensitive and emotional. Parks can be sentimental and he cries at sad stories. He needs friends and society.
Larry Parks appreciates the refinements of life. He desires comfort and security. He has also refined taste, and can be a connoisseur. Larry loves music and possesses a good deal of musical talent.
Parks' sensitivity is actually a symptom of his highly developed intuition, but he must learn to trust it. Larry Parks is a gentle soul and he shy away from confrontation as long as possible. He experiences a battle within when he does not believe he can handle a situation; this may have a paralyzing effect on him.
Larry Parks prefers to give in when he should assert himself. He must learn to be more decisive. Very often, Larry is afraid to use his own power in the face of someone else's aggressiveness. He incorrectly perceive himself to be in a weaker position; Parks may ultimately give in merely to avoid a fight.
Conversely, Larry Parks is extremely diplomatic and tactful. He likes to accomplish things through quiet persuasion. He dislikes force.
Larry has to fight uncertainty and doubt. He needs to develop confidence and a willingness to stand up for what he believes to be right.
Larry Parks functions best in a supportive role, guiding the more public person in quiet, unobtrusive, yet essential ways.

perfect, a place (probably the village of Salim) some 2 miles east of Jacob's well. There is an abundant supply of water, which may have been the reason for Jacob's settling at this place (Gen. 33:18-20). The Revised Version translates this word, and reads, "Jacob came in peace to the city of Shechem," thus not regarding it as a proper name at all.
In the patriarchal age it was the seat of Melchizedek's priestly kingdom, and was known as Salem, properly pronounced shalem.
Apparently the experiment passed off well; shalem has every reason to feel pleased with himself and well-disposed towards Gorla.

Multi-Method Research: An Empirical Investigation of Object-Oriented Technology
Wood, Murray and Daly, John and Miller, James and Roper, Marc (1999) Multi-Method Research: An Empirical Investigation of Object-Oriented Technology. Journal of Systems and Software, 48 (1). pp. 13-26. ISSN 0164-1212
Full text not available in this repository. (Request a copy from the Strathclyde author)Abstract
There is a general acceptance that software engineering research should be supported by empirical evaluation. To make real progress researchers must address the difficulties caused by the human-intensive nature of software development as well as experimental validity. This paper proposes the use of multi-method empirical research programs, as an alternative to 'single-shot' empirical studies, to help address these problems. The multi-method approach is based on the combination of complementary empirical research methods. The intention is that the complementary nature of the research methods compensate for weaknesses inherent in individual methods. It is argued that the multi-method approach potentially provides benefits in terms of more robust conclusions, development and investigation of research hypotheses in an evolutionary manner, and increased understanding of research results. This paper demonstrates an application of the multi-method approach in an empirical investigation of object-oriented technology. This research program consists of a set of structured interviews with practitioners of object-oriented technology, followed by a wide-scale questionnaire survey, and concludes with a set of three controlled laboratory experiments which investigated one of the key findings from the exploratory interview and questionnaire phases. This application finds evidence that unconstrained inheritance usage in object-oriented software may inhibit software maintenance. The paper concludes that the multi-method approach offers the possibility of more reliable and generalizable results from empirical software engineering research.

- How to Read a Study Record
Investigators are interested in learning how appetite responds after chewing gum.
In this research study subjects will be asked to eat a lunch meal provided at our Center. After eating the lunch meal, subjects will answer questions describing their feelings of hunger, thirst and desire to eat every 30 minutes for 3 hours.
Blood will be drawn throughout the study period to determine how chewing gum impacts certain hormones released from your intestine after eating and therefore how they influence your appetite. Blood draws will be done every 30 minutes for 3 hours. At only one of the two study visits, subjects will chew gum during specific times. One study visit will not include chewing gum.
After three hours, there will be a snack to eat as much as desired followed by one more set of questions and blood draw.
All study visits will take approximately 4 ½ hours.

Official Title: | Understanding the Role of Chewing Gum in Satiation, Satiety and Hunger Management |
- To characterize the subjective and metabolic satiety response pattern to chewing gum vs. no chewing gum on subjective satiety and subsequent second meal intake in adult women. [ Time Frame: 4 hour post prandial study ]
Chewing gum will be provided throughout the 4 hour post-prandial study at defined intervals at one of the two study visits. Feelings of hunger, fullness and desire to eat will be measured by the subject every 30 minutes post-lunch for 3 hours. Blood draws will also be collected every 30 minutes post-lunch for 3 hours.
At 3 hours, a snack tray will be provided and subject will be instructed to consume as desired. One additional sent of questions and blood draw will be completed at 4 hours post-lunch.
- To investigate the relationship of metabolic responses to gum-induced/enhanced satiety by evaluating changes in free-living food intake in adult women [ Time Frame: 2 days ]
Blood draws will also be collected every 30 minutes post-lunch for 3 hours. One additional blood draw will be completed at 4 hours post-lunch.
Subjects will be asked to maintain a self-selected diet throughout the study period. Leading up to the study visits, subjects will measure and record all food intake using food intake scales provided. Subjects will also be asked to measure and record all food intake for the remainder of the study visit day.

Detailed Description:
The study is a randomized, 2-arm, placebo-controlled, within-subjects crossover study to evaluate the satiety and metabolic response patterns of gum/no gum in relatively healthy weight and obese women.
The study will require one initial screening visit (1 hour) and 2 study visits. We are looking for healthy, non-smoking women older than 18 years of age with no significant medical history.
The initial screening visit will determine subject eligibility through height, weight and waist circumference measurements, vital signs, blood glucose test (finger prick) and completion of a series of surveys related to eating, health, exercise and mood.
If willing and eligible to participate, subjects will have 2 study visits. The lunch will be provided 4 hours after a intra-subject standardized breakfast (the same breakfast for each subject before each study visit). Upon arrival at each visit, subjects will have anthropometric measurements, vital signs upon blood glucose finger prick as well as assessment for compliance with breakfast protocol, subsequent fasting and adequate water intake.
Upon completion of pre-study procedures, a registered nurse will place a catheter (flexible tubing) in the subjects' arm during each study visit. A catheter is used so subjects are not stuck with a needle for every blood sample. Instead, the catheter is inserted using a needle, the needle is removed and the flexible plastic tubing remains the arm for the duration of the study day serving as a port for collecting blood samples at the specific time points
The initial blood draw will be collected (pre-lunch) then the lunch meal served. Subjects will have 20 minutes to finish the entire lunch meal. Thereafter, subjects will describe feelings of hunger, thirst and desire to eat every 30 minutes for 3 hours followed by blood draws.
At one of the 2 study visits, subjects will be provided chewing gum at which they will chew gum for 15 minutes leading up to the question set and blood draw.
A tray of snacks will be provided at 3 hours post-lunch and subjects may consume the snacks as desired. Lastly, a final set of questions will be answered followed by a blood draw at 4 hours post-lunch.
During the course of the study, subjects will be instructed to maintain their usual level of activity and a self-selected diet. Three day food records will be maintained throughout the course of the study.
Each study visit will last approximately 4 1/2 hours and subjects will be required to remain at the Clinical Nutrition Research Center on the IIT Campus for the duration of the visit.

When fishing from a boat, or fishing vessel, pretty much any fishing technique can be used, from nets to fish traps, but some form of angling is by far the most common. Compared to fishing from the land, fishing from a boat allows more access to different fishing grounds and different species of fish.

Ferns have the highest proportion of apomictic species in all plant groups, but the reasons for this are unclear. Dyer et al. determine the reproductive mode of species in the Asplenium monanthes fern complex, and use plastid and nuclear sequence data to resolve species' relationships. They find that reticulate evolution is prevalent in apomictic and sexual lineages, and there is evidence for rare putative sexual progenitor species and multiple origins of apomixis. However, it is not yet possible to determine the precise mechanisms of origin, or whether this association of apomixis with reticulation is the cause or the effect of apomictic origins within this complex.

Organic vegetables are grown without the use of pesticides, as they naturally repel pests by threatening to spoil popular TV dramas that the bugs haven't caught up on. Show good taste with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $15 for $30 worth of Mediterranean fusion cuisine for two or more
- $20 for $40 worth of Mediterranean fusion cuisine for four or more
The menu includes a Moroccan lamb-shank tagine with saffron couscous ($23), a merguez-topped pizza ($15), and sweet pea-stuffed ravioli with mixed mushrooms ($16).
If Groupon customers visit with a party of four or more and order at least two entrees, they will also receive 40% off bottles from the restaurant's wine list.
The chefs at Mezzé's careful use of bold spices and traditional recipes from across the Mediterranean earned their fragrantly seasoned cuisine a rating of "Very Good to Excellent" from Zagat. In addition to sourcing local, organic, and sustainably farmed ingredients whenever possible, they also keep their flavors close to home by stuffing spicy merguez, smoking Angus rib eyes, and pickling vegetables in house. Throughout their meal, diners can gaze directly into the open kitchen and watch the chefs at work, busily arranging the lamb-shank tagine or debating the relative merits of eating soup with a spoon versus a crazy straw.

Where, certainly not in northern europe, or north america, or south america, or asia, or the artic or antartic, and not in austrailiaisa either for that matter, despite what the government-lead carbon tax brigade. research from independant weather scientists and you will find not only is the globe not warming, but that the BBC and other weather reporters were caught "fixing" the weather reports of the last 25 years which is why the copenhagen agreement collapsed, despite is not being widely reported in western media, it was reported in other parts of the world.
The last few winters and summers have been colder than average, which obviously means we are NOT getting warmer, and it is also not widely reported that overall ice coverage in both the artic and antartic have increased significantly since 2007.....but never mind the facts, as Al Gore would say, it is an inconvenient truth that the globe goes through continuous spells of warming and coolling for approx 25 year periods due entirely on Solar activity, zero to do with carbon emissions, and since around 2007 we are on a cooling period, the reason behind the cold winters of late.
Anyone who is living through the current weather of the last 2 years and still believes the globe is warming needs to open his eyes to the world outside rather than get his weather reports from the carbon tax brigade. Carbon trading was dreamed up purely as a money-generating scam, and it is generating massive fortunes.
An internet search of global warming scam will yield much information. Notice how the last few years the carbon tax brigade have changed their cathcphrase from "global warming" to "climate change", which they might as well simply call "weather". There is weather outside, give more of your money in the form of "carbon taxes" to us so we will fix it!!!!!!!

"Earwig-o, earwig-o, earwig-o....."
Give it a rest, please. In fact, give yourself some rest.....
There is too much self-interest in this 'Global Warming' argument and motivations that are not environmentally based. The fact that 'Global Warming' became 'Climate Change' is a bit of a clue that there is a lot of misinformation floating around.
I'm for protecting the environment but i'm not naive enough to believe that for example, driving around in a Toyota Hybrid is going to make any difference. (in fact the opposite, if you count the total environmental cost from build to scrap)
But I certainly agree that I think it's going to be a chilly one this year.
Batteries off the boat sooner rather than later, empty the fresh water tanks and anything that moves, well greased.

The engagement rumor mill is busy churning 'em out this year. Last week, the gossip was that Regina King and Malcolm-Jamal Warner had decided to wed (which she later disputed). This week, it's Common and Serena's turn.
Serena Williams' best friend Selita Ebanks appeared on "The Wendy Williams Show" Monday , and when the day-time host asked about the rumor, Selita didn't actually deny it.
Selita just said, "I'm the best friend, and I wouldn't be the best friend if I told you, so I don't know."
An answer like that in court could land you behind bars, but we're still not sure Common and Serena are guilty of pending matrimony. Several media outlets are reporting that Serena has denied the rumor.
Serena and Common have been dating for about three years now, and all Selita would share is her opinion that Common would be a smart man to lock Serena down. If nothing else, it seems their relationship is back on track. That's a step in the right direction when you consider that they broke up briefly last summer.
According to sources, Common presented Serena with a ring over the holidays.
Have a look for your self!

Run-time modeling is a method of using the execution data for modeling the real process going on in a program. This paper introduces a run-time modeling scheme as a tool for software visualization and the Unified Modeling Language (UML) is selected to accomplish this concept. To develop a run-time UML, it is necessary to devise user-friendly methods for showing static and dynamic modeling diagrams by mapping source code information and real time execution data to UML diagrams. The proposed scheme is planned to be implemented into an integrated development environment (IDE) using Java

Postgame notes: "He's going out and dominating"
Hiroki Kuroda will lead you to believe he has not tried harder, or focused with more intensity, in the absence of CC Sabathia and Andy Pettitte. His ascendency to Yankee ace in their absence has been a matter of simpler things, like the command of his sinker and slider and the frequency with which he has thrown strikes.
"Not at all do I have that kind of pressure," he said. "All I'm thinking about is trying to pitch my game and try to keep winning whenever I pitch."
Of course, with the facts being what they are, it's clear Kuroda has chased away fears throughout the clubhouse. He beat the Red Sox 4-1 tonight with eight strong innings and is now 9-2 with a 2.38 ERA in his last 16 starts.
"He's been unbelievable," Pettitte said. "He's not just throwing good games. He's going out and dominating."
Indeed, Kuroda was at his best again Sunday. He threw 75 of his 112 pitches for strikes, allowed four hits and walked no one. The only blemish was a solo homer by Adrian Gonzalez with one out in the seventh. It hardly spooked Kuroda, who went on to throw a perfect eighth.
"Even if those guys are here we still need him. He's a big part of this team," Derek Jeter said. "He's been pitching extremely well. If we had scored a few more runs for him, we'd have a few more wins. But we have a lot of confidence in him when he's on the mound. He's kept us in most games he's pitched."
A great stat on Kuroda: He had pitched 16 2/3 innings without allowing a run before the Gonzalez home run. Over that span, he had surrendered just six hits, all of which were singles.
He has now allowed three earned runs or less in each of his last seven starts, matching the longest stretch by a Yankee this season (Phil Hughes and Ivan Nova). He has also thrown six innings or more in those seven starts, a streak that is one shy of a career high set last year with the Dodgers.
• Ichiro Suzuki had three hits, including a pair of solo home runs to right off Josh Beckett that gave the Yankees a 4-0 lead. Ichiro later added an infield single, giving him a .322 average and three home runs in his first 87 at-bats as a Yankee. He batted just .261 with four home runs in 402 at-bats with Seattle.
"If he'd been a Yankee for a number of years, who knows how many home runs he might have hit," Girardi said. "We know there's power there."
Ichiro said he was "embarrassed" in the sixth after he obliged fans asking for a curtain call.
• Alex Rodriguez and Pettitte both received good news from their X-rays tonight, although neither is quite ready to return. The exams did show improvement, and both hope to increase the intensity of their baseball activities soon.
Rodriguez, who has not played since July 24, will continue to do strengthening exercises with the training staff. He expects to have another evaluation after Thursday's off day and hopes he will be cleared to swing then.
"It's definitely healing good," Rodriguez said. "The doctor was encouraged by the pictures, so we'll continue to heal."
Pettitte has not been on a mound since June 27 and has not been cleared to return to one yet. He will, however, continue to throw off flat ground and begin to push off the left leg during his those sessions.
"Hopefully, maybe when we get back from this road trip I can get on a mound," Pettitte said. "The doctor hasn't told me that yet, but I'm hoping that will be when it will be."
• Derek Jeter had three hits and scored two runs. He extended his league-leading hit total to 163, four more than San Francisco's Melky Cabrera, who just began serving a 50-game suspension for using performance enhancing drugs. He also moved within one of Nap Lajoie for 12th on the all-time hit list and one of Craig Biggio for 13th on the all-time run list. The 38-year-old Jeter now has 3,151 career hits and 1,843 career runs scored.
"My hope was that giving him a couple of DH days would keep him in the lineup and so far it's worked," Girardi said.
Jeter is now batting .373 in his last 15 games and has hit safely in 14 of them. His 163 hits and 26 doubles have already surpassed last year's totals of 162 and 24, respectively.
• Robinson Cano was hitless in his previous 16 at-bats before singling off Beckett in the fifth. Cano had actually just one hit in his previous 25 at-bats – a home run last Sunday in Toronto.
• Curtis Granderson went 1 for 2 with an RBI double and drew two walks in his first start in the cleanup spot as a Yankee. It was just the second game he started batting cleanup in his career.
• The Yankees snapped their dubious streak against the slumping Beckett. They beat him in the Bronx for the first time since Aug. 8, 2010. He had been 5-0 in New York over his last seven starts.
